00:00:17.640 we talk about Biden and his vice presidential choice and this little issue that Biden had
00:00:22.700 with, you know, eulogizing a KKK member. He's had no criticism over it. We get into that.
00:00:28.180 We give you the quotes and everything on the podcast today. Also, Oprah is calling out
00:00:34.620 you, if you're white, for your white privilege. Make sure that you realize how white you are 0.62
00:00:41.920 and how much privilege you have. We now have a new example for cancel culture. Kindergarten cop. 0.99
00:00:49.480 Get into the details on that. And how awful Bill de Blasio and Andrew Cuomo are. They are the worst
00:00:56.960 pretty much in the entire country. We get into the details on that. And a new spin on Hooters that

00:01:38.440 Here's the podcast. Remember the words, it's not a tumor. How offensive that was. Remember
00:01:57.920 how you felt back then? Literally the only thing I can remember from that movie.
00:02:00.780 It's not a tumor. It's not a tumor. The movie, Kindergarten Cop, so despicable,
00:02:09.100 has been removed now from the Northwest Film Center. They plan to kick off the Cinema Unbound
00:02:16.280 summer drive-in movie series that they do every year with that particular movie. But fortunately,
00:02:22.980 somebody with cooler heads prevailed. Smarter heads, wiser heads prevailed.
00:02:31.100 I was going to say, because the fact that they wanted to air Kindergarten Cop at a drive-in movie
00:02:36.060 theater made me hate everyone at the organization. Right, yes. Because of their despicable, despicable
00:02:42.960 actions. Yes. And their obvious lack of caring of people of color. Right. Because of the strong 1.00
00:02:49.360 messaging in Kindergarten Cop against people of color? Well, as it was put by this woman who
00:02:56.100 objected to it, national reckoning on over-policing is a weird time to revive Kindergarten Cop. I know
00:03:04.280 you were thinking the same thing a minute ago. First of all, I gotta say, is it reviving Kindergarten
00:03:10.280 Cop just showed at a local drive-in festival? I don't think it's reviving it. Yes, because it would
00:03:15.220 spread all over the country. You teased that story. I thought they were going to say they
00:03:19.880 were remaking it or something. No. No, no. It's just being the old Arnold Schwarzenegger
00:03:24.900 version. Yes. It's just being shown locally? Yes. That was the big controversy. Yes. Some
00:03:30.340 little small town in Oregon is showing this at a drive-in movie festival, and they do this
00:03:36.060 every year. But here's the thing. We are trying to end the school to prison pipeline.
00:03:42.760 That's not what the movie's about. Nor does it encourage the school to prison pipeline.
00:03:51.380 There's nothing entertaining, Stu, about the presence of police in schools, which feeds the
00:03:57.780 school to prison pipeline in which African-American, Latinx, and other kids of color are criminalized
00:04:05.320 rather than educated. I don't remember this in the movie at all. I gotta be honest with you.
00:04:10.820 That's only because it's not there. That's why you don't remember it, is because it's
00:04:15.060 nowhere in the movie. Well, and my white privilege. And your white privilege. Right. Those two
00:04:19.900 things combined. Now, you can completely take away your privilege. You're still white. 0.97
00:04:24.480 And so... Right. Of course. Obviously. Obviously. You know. He didn't need to say that. Obviously.
00:04:29.780 Five and six-year-olds are handcuffed and hauled off to jail routinely in this country, as you
00:04:37.660 know. Routinely. As you know. How many times does that happen? I don't know, but it's routine.
00:04:45.840 Okay. It happens all the time. Maybe, you know, once a year or so, I hear a story like that
00:04:51.340 where some kid has done something and a police officer does something they shouldn't probably
00:04:57.420 do and haul them off to jail. I don't hear it. Often, I feel like I hear about it when
00:05:02.800 it happens because it's usually a news story. Right? And then it doesn't happen again for
00:05:06.980 a while. Well, let me tell you something. This criminalizing of children increases dramatically
00:05:10.440 when cops are assigned to work in schools. We all know that. I think one of the best things
00:05:14.880 we can do is take down the defenses of our kids at school. What we don't want is people 1.00
00:05:20.520 who are there that could take out a mass shooter or something if, God forbid, one shows up.
00:05:24.640 You want to make sure that they're just completely unprotected and therefore they will not feel
00:05:29.960 the wrath of something like a kindergarten cop. Well, right. Because the school to prison
00:05:34.740 pipeline is much worse than what you're talking about. Right. Than mass shootings. Oh my gosh.
00:05:40.200 Yes. Come on. Wise up. Yeah. You know what? Do I have to educate you in all this? My white 0.89
00:05:44.600 privilege is showing again, isn't it? That's right. Yes, it is. It's flopped out once more. Yes,
00:05:48.740 it has. It's so apparent. It's achingly apparent. It is. It is. What a weird. Kindergarten cop. He's
00:05:57.700 there. I haven't seen the movie probably since it came out, you know, 30 years ago. Yeah. Not a lot
00:06:03.520 of re-watching. No. First, the biggest question here is why on earth would you pick Kindergarten
00:06:08.480 Cop to show what you're driving? Because it was filmed in Oregon, I guess. Oh, okay. At least part
00:06:12.640 of it was in Oregon. And so this festival involves movies about Oregon or filmed in
00:06:17.720 Oregon. So instead of doing Kindergarten Cop, they're instead going to play a second
00:06:23.800 showing of, let's see, it's the, you know, it's the John Lewis story, the documentary
00:06:35.840 about John Lewis. They're going to show that twice. Was that filmed in Oregon? Yeah, I don't
00:06:39.640 know if it was filmed in Oregon or he, okay. He went to Oregon once or. So wait, their answer
00:06:45.420 Oregon tie there is. So anyway, I want to make sure I understand. They are so terrified
00:06:53.320 by this. Yeah. That not only are they canceling Kindergarten Cop, they didn't even pick another
00:06:58.720 movie. They just decided to run another one. I think we're okay with the John Lewis thing.
00:07:02.480 It's the one thing I know we can show. They're terrified. That's probably figured into it.
00:07:08.220 I'll bet it did. Yeah. I'll just replay the one we already have then. They can't, they
00:07:11.940 can't, they can't protest that. And you'd think they can't protest that, but you know
00:07:15.100 what? They will. They can. And they will. They are, the left is in a, in the middle of
00:07:19.480 an all out full frontal assault against the division of Martin Luther King. Oh, for sure.
00:07:25.580 Against it. Yeah. Martin Luther King statues will topple in this country in within the next
00:07:30.760 decade. Probably faster. Probably much faster. They listen to the work. I'll give it three
00:07:36.760 years. Yeah. Go to like the white fragility. Um, this book that's become so popular and is 0.93
00:07:41.340 so highly recommended. It is not the races. The thing they're calling racism today is not
00:07:49.000 what Martin Luther King called racism. It is, it's a totally different thing. They've just
00:07:53.880 redefined the word like they do a gender, right? They just taken the word and it now means something
00:07:59.580 different. We were doing on the, on the fabulous Pat and Stu show back in the day. I remember
00:08:04.020 sitting there with you and we're sitting there, we're watching a clip of Ellen and Ellen comes
00:08:07.760 on. She's, and she's talking about the transgendered situation. And she says, you know, people don't
00:08:13.480 understand like, you know, what, what, what gender, what transgender means is it's, it's not,
00:08:19.540 it's not like the, what you used to think it was. It's, it's a feeling that you have in your
00:08:24.020 head. And it's like, well, okay, let's just take this on its, on its face for a second.
00:08:30.680 If what you're talking about is a feeling in your head, we are talking about two different
00:08:35.620 topics. It may be very interesting to discuss what feeling you have in your head. That may
00:08:43.780 be something really interesting to talk about. It's got nothing to do with whether you're
00:08:46.900 a boy or a girl though, right? Like that it's not, it's not the same. I'm talking about,
00:08:51.240 are you a boy or a girl? If a doctor comes in and they need to fix your ovaries, are you going to
00:08:58.280 have any? Right? Right. That's what we're talking about. You might have another interesting
00:09:04.160 topic to discuss, but there's already a word we were using for the boy girl thing. We were
00:09:09.880 talking about gender. Okay. Right. So why take the one we are, if you want to call it feeling in
00:09:16.440 your head, then that might be a really interesting topic for your talk show, but it's not gender. 0.99
00:09:21.240 It's not what it is. Yeah. And we've come to this place where racism is the same way. Racism used
00:09:26.980 to be, are you judging people by the color of their skin instead of the content of their
00:09:31.980 character? If you're doing that, you're an idiot. Okay. Yeah. If you're discriminating against
00:09:36.740 people because based on the color of their skin, that's racism. Yes. If you don't like them just
00:09:41.520 because of the color of their skin, that's racism. That's racism. The solution to that, judge people 0.81
00:09:47.120 by the content of their character instead of the color of their skin. It's what... And that's not
00:09:50.920 what they're looking for now. Yeah. It's what Martin Luther King said. And it's what Terry
00:09:53.920 Cruz just said. The same thing. He's... Terry Cruz was just articulating Martin Luther King's vision.
00:10:01.080 And he's bludgeoned for it. And he's bludgeoned for it. And you look at white fragility. We did a show 0.99
00:10:05.480 on this on Stu Does White Fragility a couple weeks ago. And I had to go through a bunch of the nonsense
00:10:10.000 in the book. And when you look at it, they are not describing racism as we know it. They have a
00:10:17.540 completely new definition of racism that revolves around the idea that it's not something you can
00:10:26.280 control. It's not something to cure. It's something inherent in you, which to me sounds a lot like the
00:10:34.600 arguments racists make. Hey, you're dumb. It's inherent in you because of your color of your
00:10:42.160 skin that you're dumber than the color of my skin, right? That is what racists say. And what they are
00:10:48.560 doing now with this white fragility argument and all of these other things is judging people who have
00:10:55.060 a certain color of skin by the color of their skin and not the content of character. They've actually
00:11:00.720 reversed Martin Luther King's vision. Exactly reversed it. And just reversed exactly the
00:11:07.660 people who are being discriminated against instead of blacks. It's now whites. Okay, well, so I have 0.89
00:11:14.120 to be labeled the white privileged person or white fragility just because I'm white. Yeah. And people
00:11:21.340 will say, well, come on, you think white people are having all that tough in America? Well, no, I don't
00:11:26.100 think that they do. I think America, generally speaking, is filled with people who see Martin Luther
00:11:29.780 King's vision of racism and see that as something that should be fought against. But if the people
00:11:36.480 who have authored and given you things like white fragility get in control and win this argument,
00:11:44.220 then yes. Yeah. White people will be discriminated against just like black people were. For sure. 1.00
00:11:49.640 It's the direction we're headed. Yeah. That's why, you know, you have to push it. You have to push
00:11:53.520 back against it. And it's important that people like Terry Crews do it too. Yeah. You know,
00:11:57.560 I mean, they should be praised for that. That's because this is insanity. You're taking human
00:12:01.940 agency out of it. You can't, you can never personally be a good person because of the
00:12:06.620 color of their skin. That is legitimately their argument. If you're white, you can't not, 0.92
00:12:12.040 you can't avoid racism. You are automatically a racist. One of the worst accusations in our,
00:12:17.260 in our society for good reason. And you cannot escape it because of the color of your skin. 1.00
00:12:22.060 Okay. That is, it's a horrific way to view the world. Horrific. And it's gotten so bad that
00:12:31.420 they're actually changing what this movie is about. Kindergarten cop wasn't about police
00:12:41.500 arresting children or terrorizing children or traumatizing them in the kindergarten. He was
00:12:47.000 just undercover at the school. He wasn't arresting children. There was nothing in there about that.
00:12:52.600 Nope. He was, he was trying to protect the children and there was a drug dealer in there
00:12:56.280 or something. And he was trying to get the drug dealer. And so it's mainly, you know, he falls in
00:13:02.700 love, I think with one of the teachers or something to that effect. Doesn't he? I don't know. And she
00:13:07.000 happens to have a kid and then it's all beautiful and, and great things happen, but it's not about
00:13:13.000 arresting five and six year olds and taking them off to prison or the prison, the school to prison
00:13:19.360 pipeline. Nothing to do with that. And again, I'm not, I wouldn't say I'm a huge fan, but we're going
00:13:23.640 to destroy the legacy of an immigrant who came here with nothing, who built himself into a movie star 1.00
00:13:29.880 and then a governor of California. Right. We're just going to destroy his legacy because I guess he had
00:13:34.460 white privilege too. Yes. He came over here and was so white. He was able to succeed in this way 0.67
00:13:39.000 with nothing, building his entire life with zilch. We're supposed to now degrade that memory, 1.00
00:13:44.900 just like we degraded the woman who played Aunt Jemima, just like all of these examples.
00:13:50.560 And her family too, because her family's pissed about it. Oh yeah. I mean, think about this.
00:13:55.120 Your, your mom is a beloved figure. Your mom is someone who not only is, is, is beloved by everybody
00:14:03.400 who remembers eating Aunt Jemima pancakes when you were a kid. I mean, I still have them by the way,
00:14:07.360 in my cupboard. I made sure to buy some right before they took them off the shelves. But like,
00:14:11.800 you know, it's, it's one of those things where it's a great memory from your childhood. And as I've
00:14:15.960 pointed out, consumer research indicates that African-Americans are overwhelmingly the biggest
00:14:23.280 consumers of Aunt Jemima products. Why? Well, you could understand it, right? When you go down the aisle
00:14:30.140 and there's someone who looks like maybe your grandma smiling back at you, there's a reason why they
00:14:36.140 probably connect with that product. They don't look at it as negative. They look at it as positive.
00:14:41.400 Like that is a good thing. Now they've ripped it off the market because white people told them
00:14:48.340 they were supposed to be offended. Like how insulting is this? And it's completely widespread
00:14:56.180 and barely questioned anymore, Pat. Same with Mrs. Butterworth too. Yeah. She gone now too.
00:15:00.000 Cause I have her. She's gone now too. I got her in the cupboard as well. Do you? I do.
00:15:02.840 And I have some Uncle Ben's. But the bottle is shaped by, like she would be or something,
00:15:07.820 right? Yeah. It looked like it does. The bottle is like, it's Mrs. Butterworth herself.
00:15:12.780 Cause I don't know. I honestly don't know the color of Mrs. Butterworth. I've never known that.
00:15:17.760 Now if I, if she's transparent as she appears.
00:15:20.440 She's sort of syrupy. Yeah. But inside of her is syrup. That doesn't mean the color of her skin is 0.99
00:15:26.840 syrupy. I don't think. I mean, I've never put any thought into it. Maybe. And that is what the
00:15:31.740 argument is, Pat. They say, if you haven't put thought into it, that shows you're a white supremacist.
00:15:35.360 It shows that you're, that you're, you're, uh, your white privilege is that you didn't have to put
00:15:39.640 any thought into it. Right. It's like, why have we picked skin color for these arguments? Why didn't we 0.99
00:15:45.920 pick eye color? Why didn't we pick hair color? None of these things mean anything. None of them
00:15:52.400 matter at all. None of them matter. And we've just picked random physical, like I characteristics
00:15:59.680 and decided to divide our entire society based on them. It makes no sense. I thought we understood
00:16:07.720 that, but apparently not. No, I don't think we do. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:16:15.920 This Bill de Blasio thing, uh, is, this is one of the more outrageous things because it's,
00:16:24.880 they're so, uh, unmasked, I guess. They're just saying it now. They don't care. They're
00:16:32.380 not trying to hide it. It's like, no, I can do this, but you can't. No, no, I'm, I'm, I'm
00:16:37.920 different than you. They did this with the politician thing in Washington where they said the politicians
00:16:42.740 can do this. Yeah. They can get together for a funeral because they're politicians. They
00:16:46.280 need to. They're important. They're important people. You can't do this because you're little
00:16:49.800 people. They're actually basically saying just that. Yeah. Well, and John Lewis was an important
00:16:56.520 person. His funeral is important. The people who attended it are important. Now your funeral
00:17:00.940 is not important. You're a zilch. You're, who are you? You said what? You had a spouse for 1.00
00:17:04.860 50 years and you didn't get to say goodbye to him. So what? It's unbelievable. You don't get a
00:17:08.880 funeral. Of course not. That's ridiculous. It's ridiculous for you to do it. It's okay
00:17:12.360 for us to do it. Now when, when Glenn predicted and I believed the, the socialist thing, I thought,
00:17:17.740 yeah, okay. I bet they will eventually just say it because they're proud of it. They want
00:17:21.640 to say it. They've always wanted to say it. They just know that America wasn't there.
00:17:25.640 And I think they're, they believe at least they're to the point where many Americans are
00:17:30.120 and they can just say it right now. Yeah, we're socialists. It's a better system. Uh, you
00:17:34.120 tried it the other way. Now let's do it our way. But this, I am better than you
00:17:38.260 thing. And I know more than you is just amazing because I'm elite and you're a douche bag. I,
00:17:46.460 I mean, you shouldn't be able to do the things that I can do. Listen to Bill de Blasio, who's
00:17:52.340 talking about, you know, the, the black lives matter. Um, they call it a mural. It was just
00:17:58.080 painting on a street, painting block letters on a street. That's not a mural. Okay. That's
00:18:03.740 not a mural. A mural is like a painting. That's that's a mural. Uh, what he's doing
00:18:09.240 wasn't a mural, but you're supposed to get a permit for it. And he didn't. And everybody
00:18:14.840 else has to, here's what he had to say about that. We haven't said no to people. We've
00:18:19.660 said, if you want to apply, you can apply, but there's a process. Uh, the fact is that
00:18:25.860 what I decided to do with the black lives matter murals. And this came out of a meeting at Gracie
00:18:32.360 mansion weeks ago with community leaders and activists who said this would be such an important
00:18:37.380 thing for this city to declare officially. Um, that is something again, transcends all normal
00:18:44.140 realities because history where this has to be said. We're supposed to buy, we're supposed to buy
00:18:50.360 that it transcends all normal reality. Wait, uh, no, it doesn't. Well, it isn't that in the
00:18:56.920 transcendence clause? No, no, no, it's not. That's actually not a constitutional thing.
00:19:01.820 There is no transcendence clause. Well, what if the mayor of a city really wants to do something?
00:19:06.640 They should be able to do it, right? No, I'm still there again. But if they really like,
00:19:10.680 but like they really want it, like, you know, cause I think what you're saying is like people
00:19:15.100 like, and what if a mayor kind of wants it? What I'm saying is that they really want it.
00:19:18.820 Like, and it's like transcends all reality. I should add onto that. It feels really good.
00:19:23.300 Like what if it feels really good? And somebody told you it's important? Yeah. Yeah. Still. No,
00:19:27.160 no, still you got to go through channels, but he didn't. And he's admitting it and he's admitting
00:19:32.800 it and he's saying, but you still have to see the rest of this. Unbelievable. And that's a decision
00:19:38.640 I made, but the normal process continues for anyone who wants to apply for your little people. Okay.
00:19:45.420 The normal process continues for you, but I don't have to do it because what we have transcends
00:19:51.280 you little people. You don't understand. We're smarter than you. We're wiser than you. And
00:19:56.920 we're just frankly better than you. But you have to go through the normal process or you'll
00:20:01.720 be put in jail. That's a legitimately incredible clip because he can't even, it shows you how
00:20:08.440 this stuff happens. Yeah. He can't even manufacture a BS excuse as to why this is real. And he's had
00:20:15.080 weeks and weeks and weeks to come up with it. Yeah. You know what's happened? No one has brought
00:20:20.540 it up to him before. This is the first time he's thinking about how all of this doesn't make any
00:20:26.120 sense. For the first time, someone has breached the topic with him and said, Hey guys, like I've
00:20:32.340 noticed that like you're holding everyone else in the city to a different standard because you like
00:20:36.860 this cause, but how is that happening? Uh, this transcends normal. What? Yeah. What an explanation.
00:20:46.820 Wait a minute. This try and we're just supposed to buy that bull crap explanation. This transcends
00:20:54.120 all normal reality. What? And that is essentially their argument with why the rallies were okay in
00:21:00.960 the first place. Coronavirus doesn't spread there because this transcends all normal reality,
00:21:05.460 which it does not, which is, and that's why in part the virus is spreading again. Yeah. It's
00:21:10.940 why you're having all these issues, right? It's at least part of it. Um, and it's an amazing
00:21:15.260 thing to see. Uh, I, I can't, it's incredible to see the fact that he can't even muster an attempt
00:21:24.160 at political BS there. Right. Yeah. It's just straight out. Admit it. We've broken the rules
00:21:29.720 cause we like this group period. Yeah. We like, I mean, and of course de Blasio, but not only likes
00:21:34.800 the fact that black lives should matter, but he likes the underlying. Oh, he loves the Marxism. He's
00:21:38.740 a mark of it too. He's been a Marxist for a long time. Yep. Uh, going back to the eighties,
00:21:43.420 but, uh, that's an incredible moment. That's an incredible, it's so revealing, Pat. So revealing.
00:21:49.320 It is. And frustrating and irritating and agonizing all at once. And, uh, there's just not words in
00:21:58.760 the English language anymore to express the outrage that I feel for some of this stuff.
00:22:03.160 Yeah. Well, because he, and he is, de Blasio is horrible. I mean, the New York duo between de
00:22:09.000 Blasio and Cuomo, uh, there's not a worse combination literally in the world. I mean,
00:22:15.100 tracking it back to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, there's no one who's handled this
00:22:19.820 worse than those two. Right. And people are like, Oh, how can you say that? Andrew Cuomo
00:22:23.740 has done such a good job. And for whatever reason, de Blasio, yeah, I know it's amazing.
00:22:28.460 It's incredible. De Blasio, for some reason, they hated him so much going into this. He hasn't had
00:22:35.280 the, the, the, the, the, this sheen of, of invincibility that Cuomo has received from
00:22:40.540 the media because they just despised him anyway. Like he is one of those people who is,
00:22:44.940 incredibly liberal, but doesn't really get the benefit from the press because he's so horrible
00:22:49.120 and they can't stand him. He's so unlikable. Yeah. So unlikable. Cuomo to me is, there's no
00:22:53.580 difference. I mean, he's just as unlikable though. I will say in multiple incidents throughout this
00:22:59.880 virus, uh, de Blasio and Cuomo butted heads and each time de Blasio was proven correct.
00:23:07.900 Really? Cuomo lost those battles to the point of that Cuomo had to, was forced to admit it.
00:23:12.700 Like for example, when they're talking about that now, you know, the shutdown we can talk
00:23:16.120 about as a country and we all would agree there was a zillion mistakes made in that era. However,
00:23:23.900 Manhattan, you know, I think probably was due a shutdown in March and April. Uh, they, that
00:23:31.160 was a real utter out of control disaster as everyone at least used to admit. And in that
00:23:37.580 time, de Blasio came out and said, we, we're going to have to shut this down. This is, this
00:23:41.920 is really ugly. And, and that's right. Cuomo called him out publicly and said, he doesn't
00:23:46.600 know what he's talking about. It would have to be my call. We will not shut this down.
00:23:50.440 There is no shutdown coming. He's wrong. I think it was three days later. Cuomo called
00:23:57.900 for a statewide shutdown. Three days. It took three days. And that happened. I can't remember
00:24:04.420 there. I, we went through, there's a series of shows we did. It's two does America, the
00:24:08.180 Cuomo timeline. And we went through everything pretty much in March. It was a, it took multiple
00:24:13.800 shows just to get through March. That's how many dumb things the guy did. Uh, but we went
00:24:17.460 through that whole thing and there are multiple times in there where he disagreed. I think
00:24:21.780 schools shutting down was another one where he said, we're not going to shut down, shut
00:24:24.820 down schools. I don't know what you're talking about. We're not going to shut them down.
00:24:26.560 That's not happening. He, I would have to be on that. People are saying that it's a conspiracy
00:24:30.060 theory. I would have to be the person who did that. A couple of days later,
00:24:33.720 just got to shut schools down. I mean, he was flailing around like an idiot for months.
00:24:38.760 He was. Months. I remember the one press conference where he said that one of his
00:24:43.100 friends approached him, one of his business friends, big business buddy, uh, who said,
00:24:47.180 Hey, I, I'm hearing that everything's going to shut down. I'm hearing that the businesses
00:24:50.680 are going to be closed. We're not closing businesses. I'm the one who would do that.
00:24:54.740 And I'm not doing that. Yep. And like you said, either days or hours later, they were
00:24:59.200 shut down. Incredible. And he gets no criticism for it whatsoever. No, just, you know,
00:25:03.700 had the worst problem in the world, in the world, in the world, including Northern 1.00
00:25:09.320 Italy, including Wuhan, including Brazil, Brazil, including every other option on
00:25:16.480 earth. Cuomo was worse than worse than everyone on earth. The only one, honestly,
00:25:22.360 the only comparison you can come up with that's a moderately close would be New
00:25:28.320 Jersey. Now, of course, New Jersey connected to was connected to very closely
00:25:33.200 New York, because all the people who worked in New York came in and then while
00:25:36.940 all of this is going on, brought it back to New Jersey. So their rate is last time
00:25:40.980 I checked it a tad higher, but there, but overall death's much worse in New York.
00:25:44.940 And remember about 80% of the seeding of this virus around the country came from
00:25:49.540 New York. Yeah. You know, uh, Cuomo came up with this cool little thing. He thought
00:25:53.640 because Trump, Trump was saying the China, the China virus and to show how enlightened
00:25:58.480 he was, he instead Cuomo started saying, Oh, well, it's the European virus. We got it
00:26:03.420 from Europe because the genetic, uh, history of it looks like it came from Europe. The,
00:26:07.800 the strain that, that infected New York largely, um, that might be true. But first
00:26:12.660 of all, where did Europe get it? They just got it from China. So there was another step
00:26:16.340 on the way here, which makes absolutely no difference whatsoever. And if you're going to
00:26:20.720 blame the most recent place it came from, every other state in the union should be blaming
00:26:25.460 Andrew Cuomo because it all came from New York. Right. So this is all his fault based on,
00:26:31.940 you know, his logic, which is incredibly minimal. There's not a lot going on up there. Um, the
00:26:38.600 latest thing is, of course he most famously, uh, five governors in America decided it was a
00:26:45.340 good idea to force nursing homes to import known COVID positive patients. I can't begin to understand
00:26:51.140 that. I can't begin to understand it. It's the, it's, it's seriously almost as if what their goal
00:26:56.980 was, was to kill old people, right? Like how can we get rid of them? They're a strain on the economy 1.00
00:27:01.420 in a movie. It's like, you know what we need to do is kill old people and eat them. Yeah. And turn 1.00
00:27:06.780 them into Soylent Green. And that is, I believe, because of course it's, it's people. As you know,
00:27:14.840 Soylent Green is made out of people. Soylent Green is people! I seriously, a Charlton Heston movie. 0.99
00:27:24.640 Yeah. You could get Andrew Cuomo, uh, to be played by Heston. I think Cuomo was reliving it. Yeah. And
00:27:29.860 so if you, like, let's, let's twist it around this way. You're governor of a state. Your goal
00:27:36.000 is to kill old people. What would you do with nursing homes during a COVID-19 pandemic? I'd move 1.00
00:27:42.180 sick patients into them. Yeah. And force them. And when they said, no, we have vulnerable people
00:27:46.700 here. You'd say, I don't care. I don't care. You have to do it or you're breaking the law. Yep.
00:27:50.580 Another thing you might add on, because four other governors did do that, which is embarrassing.
00:27:55.220 But the one thing you do, and it would be only you who would do it. A couple things here, Pat.
00:28:01.020 Number one, what you would do is you would say, hey, here's a patient coming into, um, to your
00:28:06.260 home. Uh, you can't even test them to find out if they are COVID positive. New York was the only
00:28:14.260 state in the union that would not allow tests of new nursing home, uh, residents as they came in.
00:28:21.380 Did they explain that? Yes, they did, Pat. Okay.
00:28:23.660 What they said, and you'll understand this. You would like to hear it? Yeah, I would. They didn't
00:28:26.880 want to encourage discrimination on COVID-19 status. That is legitimately their excuse for
00:28:33.260 this policy because people were discriminating against people who had an infectious disease
00:28:39.800 coming into a nursing home. The nerve of them. The nerve. Not wanting them in that nursing home. 0.60
00:28:44.980 Because you know what? 49 other states didn't want positive patients to be imported into a nursing
00:28:52.480 home. However, New York did again, making it seem as if they were intentionally trying to kill these
00:28:59.220 people. And then in addition to that, Pat, New York is the only state in the union that says, hey,
00:29:07.700 uh, grandma died. She was at the nursing home. She got COVID at the nursing home. She got very sick
00:29:12.900 in the nursing home. And right before her death, we got her in an ambulance. We brought her to the
00:29:18.600 hospital and she died in the hospital. Only in New York is that not a nursing home death.
00:29:24.740 They do not record that as a nursing home death. They say that's somebody who died in the hospital.
00:29:29.980 Well, every other state in the union counts that as a nursing home death because obviously that's 0.99
00:29:36.920 the point of this statistic, right? The point is where it's transmitted, not where they actually
00:29:40.560 finally took their last breath. Right. Every other state in the union recognizes that not only does
00:29:46.780 Cuomo intentionally not recognize it because they're trying to hide that number, which is
00:29:51.140 obviously the number one, the biggest number in the United States, obviously. Um, they, he is now out
00:29:57.780 bragging about how his rate is lower than other states because he's the only state recording it that
00:30:03.760 way. So he's like, oh, we're like 34th or 35th in the nation. Don't talk to those other,
00:30:08.060 those red states who have higher rates than us. This is beyond lying. It is dancing on the graves
00:30:16.360 of thousands of dead people. He is the worst governor in the country. This guy, the fact that
00:30:22.760 it's not even close and he has been the worst manager of the coronavirus pandemic. He let it burn
00:30:29.720 through his entire population. And now because he only has five, six, seven, eight times as many
00:30:37.880 deaths as any other state that now he is because after it's burned through the population, he has
00:30:44.360 a low rate for a few weeks. He's now bragging about it and the media aids him in that. It is
00:30:50.680 despicable. There's nobody worse than Cuomo, including even de Blasio. Is it just me or do
00:30:56.580 you dislike him somewhat? Well, is that, am I getting the right impression? Let me, let me, let me,
00:31:02.120 summarize it. Am I misunderstanding what you're saying? Let me summarize it this way, Pat.
00:31:04.600 Okay. Andrewcuomoisawful.com. Okay. Just go to andrewcuomoisawful.com and you can express
00:31:11.120 this the same way. All right. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:31:29.140 I got this in from a longtime listener, Pat, an amazing, amazing part of, of our society today.
00:31:37.160 Uh, they run a Airbnb in Indiana and during the protests, the unit was rented by some protesters.
00:31:45.220 Hmm. Now, while they're there, neighbors, uh, called the owner of the, uh, Airbnb and said the
00:31:52.660 people were being rowdy at all hours of the night. Um, so the police were called. They had to meet the
00:31:59.040 police over at their, their unit. Uh, he writes, when we got there, there was a weed smoke coming from
00:32:06.860 the home. Apparently people were smoking a little bit inside the home. Not allowed, of course. Um,
00:32:11.800 after they were removed, they complained, however, to Airbnb corporate and accused the owner of the
00:32:18.720 unit of racism. They called the police because we were black or whatever. Uh, they had no chance to
00:32:25.460 respond to the accusations and now Airbnb has removed, removed their unit from Airbnb. Oh man,
00:32:32.500 I think he's, I mean, again, this is, uh, you know, Airbnb is, uh, I'm, you know, I'm sure they
00:32:39.400 have some side of the story on this as well. Of course, that's the way our life works, but you
00:32:43.920 don't need it. You know, you see what companies do all the time. I mean, companies react this way
00:32:47.940 all the time. Any accusation of something bad, whether they check it out or not, just gets,
00:32:52.720 you just get dismissed. You get thrown to the side, right? And whether you built a business,
00:32:56.060 whether you've built a part of your life, uh, doing these types of things,
00:33:00.660 it doesn't matter whether it happened 37 years ago. Uh, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
00:33:05.500 As Arnold Schwarzenegger found out with kindergarten cop, he made a movie that was
00:33:09.960 nice to police. So therefore it must be canceled. That's incredible. It really is incredible to
00:33:17.880 watch this. And I think this is one of those things where the average person doesn't feel
00:33:22.480 this way. Like the average person might very well think we should have a higher minimum wage
00:33:27.140 and they're not, they're going to get into an argument with us about the economics of it.
00:33:30.340 And that's fine. That's the way it's always been. But the average person, I don't think
00:33:34.440 believes the television show cops should be canceled because some member of the profession
00:33:40.740 of police officer did something wrong. Like that's just insane to most people.
00:33:44.720 I hope not. I hope that's true. Cause, um, I don't know how you come back from that. If,
00:33:50.640 if we're there where the average person believes that, how do you overcome that?
00:33:56.380 Yeah. It's not become so stupid that you can't continue to exist as a society at that point.
00:34:03.840 I just hope we're not there.
00:34:05.020 Na, na, na, na.
