Welcome to the podcast. It's Pat and Stu in for Glenn today. He is out sick.

We wish him well, but you can vote for him in the Radio Hall of Fame.
00:00:07.960
Surely this wasn't a ploy for some sympathy vote. RadioVote.com is the place to go.
00:00:12.560
RadioVote.com. Just a couple of days remain. RadioVote.com. On the podcast today,
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
00:00:41.920
and how much privilege you have. We now have a new example for cancel culture. Kindergarten cop.
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
00:01:02.460

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
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.
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
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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.
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,
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.
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
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
00:13:39.000
with nothing, building his entire life with zilch. We're supposed to now degrade that memory,
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.
00:15:20.440
She's sort of syrupy. Yeah. But inside of her is syrup. That doesn't mean the color of her skin is
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
