The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guest： Chad Prather ｜ 11⧸26⧸19

00:00:00.040 Welcome to the podcast. It is Pat and Stu in for Glenn today.

00:00:04.860 We talked to Chad Prather. He's, of course, Blaze TV host, and he has a three-part special going on right now.

00:00:15.600 And you get a little savings.

00:00:18.080 But he goes deep into the Jeffrey Epstein thing. He's got a three-part special going on this week.

00:00:23.300 So it's really Epstein week.

00:00:25.240 The holidays, when you think of the holidays, think Jeffrey Epstein here at the Boys.

00:00:30.060 We go into that and the new poll that shows an incredible increase in the amount of people who believe Jeffrey Epstein did not kill himself.

00:00:38.400 I don't know if it's because of the t-shirts or because everyone's saying it, the hashtag, but people are definitely starting to believe that.

00:00:44.380 And nothing says Happy Thanksgiving better than three broken bones in your neck, does it?

00:00:49.160 No, definitely not.

00:00:50.320 We also go into an interesting discovery from Stacey Abrams, who is the real, true governor of Georgia.

00:00:59.000 She obviously won by losing by 50,000 votes. 0.98

00:01:01.720 And yet had it stolen from her.

00:01:03.280 She had it stolen from her, of course.

00:01:04.600 What a novelist.

00:01:06.200 Well, it's true.

00:01:06.780 What a novelist.

00:01:07.380 She's a writer. 0.76

00:01:08.380 I did not realize this.

00:01:09.280 She writes sex novels.

00:01:10.600 And we have some excerpts from these novels.

00:01:13.160 You are not going to want to miss that.

00:01:15.300 That and so much more on today's podcast.

00:01:17.020 You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:32.620 We used to live in a country with wide diversity of opinions, yet we still had a basic set of shared values.

00:01:39.840 We might not have had the same religion, but we could agree that life was precious.

00:01:43.900 We might not have belonged to the same political party, but we could agree government should be kept small.

00:01:50.720 Yeah, those days are well behind us.

00:01:53.480 But that's why companies like Patriot Mobile are so important.

00:01:57.120 Patriot Mobile is America's only conservative cell phone company.

00:02:00.980 It's run by patriots.

00:02:02.060 These are guys who are veterans in our armed forces who believe in the good heart of this country the way that you do.

00:02:09.940 That's why I and thousands of others have made the switch to Patriot Mobile.

00:02:15.480 They're offering a special just for joining.

00:02:17.860 You can upgrade your phone to a brand new Moto Z3 Play for only $5 a month.

00:02:22.820 That includes a 6-inch screen, expandable storage, high-quality camera, and so much more.

00:02:28.080 Switching is really, really easy.

00:02:30.060 You're going to save a buttload of money every single month.

00:02:32.900 You're going to get the same great cell service.

00:02:35.360 Your money's not going to be going to Planned Parenthood or La Raza.

00:02:38.520 PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.

00:02:42.240 PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.

00:02:44.280 You get the brand new Moto Z3 Play today.

00:02:47.220 Supplies are limited.

00:02:49.220 PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.

00:02:51.800 You got an Epstein update here?

00:02:53.800 Yeah, because look, there is a lot of divisiveness in this country today.

00:02:57.820 And a lot of people are going to come around the Thanksgiving table and maybe get into some arguments.

00:03:02.120 But there's one thing that we can all come together on, which is that Jeffrey Epstein didn't kill himself.

00:03:07.640 Exactly.

00:03:07.920 I think we all could recognize that one central truth.

00:03:13.180 And, I mean, I joke a little, but, I mean, it is now.

00:03:17.140 It's coming.

00:03:18.380 It's showing up in polls now.

00:03:20.400 I bet.

00:03:21.160 This is going to be a thing.

00:03:22.340 Like, this is going to be a thing that we all believe soon.

00:03:25.240 Mm-hmm.

00:03:25.720 Right?

00:03:26.180 Mm-hmm.

00:03:26.540 I, and we went back and forth a little bit about this earlier.

00:03:31.400 And I don't, there's not really, like, evidence per se that he didn't kill himself.

00:03:39.120 There's a lot of circumstantial things.

00:03:40.020 It's just so suspicious.

00:03:42.360 It is.

00:03:43.300 Yeah.

00:03:43.480 So suspicious.

00:03:44.280 You can't deny it's suspicious.

00:03:45.740 You have to, right?

00:03:46.480 Like, listen to the way this is written.

00:03:47.640 This, I think, I don't remember who, I don't have the source here in front of me.

00:03:52.240 But 45% of Americans baselessly believe that Jeffrey Epstein was murdered according to an equal.

00:03:57.280 Baselessly?

00:03:58.120 Wait a minute.

00:03:59.180 Baselessly?

00:03:59.680 I mean, look.

00:04:00.380 Wow.

00:04:00.760 I don't like conspiracy theories at all.

00:04:02.500 Yeah.

00:04:02.660 I like seeing the evidence.

00:04:03.960 And even with this one, like, there's, there are a lot of people that would, are acting in ways that don't make sense if you're trying to cover up a murder.

00:04:14.060 There's a lot of people who are totally unrelated to this, saying things that are not consistent or don't make a lot of sense.

00:04:23.500 Why would they be involved in a cover-up?

00:04:25.500 Like, it doesn't, it's a very far-ranging thing.

00:04:27.760 And I keep coming back to the idea that if you wanted to kill Jeffrey Epstein, you had 10 years of this guy just walking around Miami, right?

00:04:35.500 Like, well, you know, he was very available to kill, and he was, he had a private island.

00:04:40.780 You could have just showed up when he was there, right?

00:04:43.160 Like, there's a lot of ways to kill Jeffrey Epstein that are much easier than waiting until he is in a cell.

00:04:48.660 Well, Bill was on the plane with him 26 times.

00:04:51.640 He could have killed him right there.

00:04:52.780 He could have done it right then.

00:04:53.120 But this is a SurveyMonkey poll, and I think the idea of baselessly here is just, you're pushing it with that, right?

00:05:06.860 Like, the cameras are out.

00:05:09.020 Two guards fall asleep.

00:05:10.780 The guy was on a suicide watch and then pulled off of it so he could commit suicide.

00:05:16.580 His cellmate was taken out of the cell just hours before this happened.

00:05:22.040 The guards never check him, despite the fact that they were supposed to do that every 15 minutes.

00:05:26.500 I mean, there's so many things.

00:05:27.860 They didn't have the paper sheets they're supposed to have that tear away instead of, you know, strangle somebody.

00:05:33.480 So, I mean, how many things came together to allow him to commit suicide?

00:05:38.700 It is suspicious.

00:05:39.960 It is suspicious.

00:05:40.500 I can't deny it's at least suspicious.

00:05:45.140 Right?

00:05:45.760 I mean, there's not a lot of conspiracy theories that I buy into.

00:05:50.860 But we all have our, like, little pet theory.

00:05:53.480 I think so, yeah.

00:05:53.840 Right?

00:05:54.120 Like, I feel like there's some, and this is what I think is going to be a big one for a lot of people.

00:05:57.660 I mean, we're up to half of America already that believe it, which is fast.

00:06:01.740 They need to do a really thorough report and convince the American people if this was not something more than suicide, you really need to walk people through it, I think.

00:06:12.000 Because it just doesn't seem possible.

00:06:14.640 34% believe this in August.

00:06:17.020 So, it's gone from 34 to 45 in only a couple of months.

00:06:21.400 Only 16% believe he died by suicide.

00:06:24.760 That's down from 33%.

00:06:26.980 So, it's been cut in half.

00:06:28.840 Wow.

00:06:29.320 And the remainder is they're not sure?

00:06:34.360 So, 45, 16.

00:06:37.520 39% unsure.

00:06:39.320 Wow.

00:06:40.040 According to the poll.

00:06:40.620 Dang.

00:06:41.060 That's a high percentage of unsure, too.

00:06:44.340 Yeah.

00:06:44.720 Well, look.

00:06:45.300 None of us were there.

00:06:46.500 Yeah.

00:06:46.820 None of us have read the report beginning to end.

00:06:49.240 I mean, obviously, some media people have done it.

00:06:51.220 But generally speaking, no one.

00:06:52.580 It's just, it's one of those things that just doesn't make sense.

00:06:56.620 I know, like, my chosen conspiracy theory, my little pet one, which turned out to be seemingly true, at least in a book that came out last year, was the whole John Roberts, Obamacare.

00:07:08.840 Where he changed his mind at the last second and rewrote it.

00:07:13.080 And it was, he was supposed to be on the side of the conservative argument and last minute switched.

00:07:20.380 It does seem like that one was actually true.

00:07:22.640 Now, there's, you know, the extension of that theory is that he did it for some illicit reason.

00:07:27.400 Like, he was hiding some secret.

00:07:29.280 I tend to think it was more of a situation.

00:07:31.680 Or there was something about his daughter, right?

00:07:34.240 I don't remember if that was it.

00:07:36.020 Yeah.

00:07:36.240 It was something where they're basically saying, like, you know, he got blackmailed into changing it.

00:07:40.000 I don't know if I believe that part of it.

00:07:41.280 But I did believe that he changed it at the last second for some reason.

00:07:45.340 And the reporting now is that he changed it kind of, like, maintained the reputation.

00:07:52.620 Yeah, he's trying to maintain his legacy or whatever.

00:07:55.400 Yeah, his legacy.

00:07:55.640 Like, I mean, it was.

00:07:56.880 Right.

00:07:57.320 It's leading.

00:07:57.960 And something that a Supreme Court justice should never do.

00:08:00.140 I mean, talk about impeachment.

00:08:02.620 There's a much better case for Roberts than there is for Trump, in my mind.

00:08:05.760 Because that's the type of stuff you shouldn't be doing.

00:08:07.960 I mean, he basically voted against what he believed was constitutional to trade out a, you know, a favor later on.

00:08:16.240 Like, he tried to convince liberals to vote with him.

00:08:18.900 So he changed his opinion.

00:08:20.560 So they'd come along and it didn't look too partisan.

00:08:23.180 Ooh.

00:08:24.080 No, they never care about that.

00:08:26.060 When's the last time a leftist cared about what looked partisan?

00:08:29.820 They never do.

00:08:31.580 They never do.

00:08:32.720 So, you know, that one, I don't know, you know, if that's even a conspiracy theory anymore.

00:08:37.820 But this one is, it's just one of those things that I think almost everybody believes is way too suspicious.

00:08:47.940 Even if you are completely fine, okay, yeah, he killed himself.

00:08:51.020 Because, look, there's a lot of reasons for the guy to kill himself.

00:08:53.900 Here's a guy who lived his entire life, you know, following, you know, receiving every little pleasure he wanted from every little illegal person or illegal act that he could have maintained it from.

00:09:07.280 And now he's in a jail cell.

00:09:09.320 He can't do anything.

00:09:10.280 His life is obviously over.

00:09:12.040 He's not getting out of that cell.

00:09:13.880 It's over.

00:09:14.580 He's disgraced.

00:09:15.920 He's disgraced completely.

00:09:18.440 Which is bizarre because really he did the things that he was caught for.

00:09:23.220 You know, he's being disgraced for long ago.

00:09:25.760 And he went through the whole situation then, came through on the other side of prison, which wasn't really prison.

00:09:33.280 He was in his own private wing of jail by himself.

00:09:38.720 And then he was able to leave for 12 hours a day, six days a week to go to work.

00:09:43.000 So that's not really prison.

00:09:45.080 Okay.

00:09:45.540 That's not, that's not prison.

00:09:48.120 No, it's not.

00:09:48.680 But he was able to continue this lifestyle.

00:09:52.500 And we don't know how many women, you know, he was, he was with, but we do know that like when he, he had, this is after, um, and women is not the right word.

00:10:03.100 I should, I should, I should note women, not the right word in this particular context, but he was, you know, he was sleeping with all these girls.

00:10:09.120 He got caught, went to jail, then got out, finally cleared himself of all these huge punishments.

00:10:16.260 Cause I mean, you know, when you, when you wind up, uh, luring 30, 40, 50 high school girls for, you know, for sex to your home.

00:10:23.960 I mean, you figure private wing leaving all the time, you know, in a year or so, it's about right for a punishment.

00:10:31.520 Uh, unbelievable.

00:10:33.260 Right.

00:10:33.440 But he continues to like, for example, he continues, has, has reporters over for interviews to his house in New York and who answers the door?

00:10:44.720 Like a teenage girl, 19 year old girls from like the Eastern block. 0.65

00:10:49.020 Yeah.

00:10:49.580 Like this is not a good, amazing story.

00:10:52.160 It's a, it's amazing.

00:10:53.400 I mean, he was a bad dude.

00:10:57.720 The best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:11:03.440 Hey, it's Glenn.

00:11:07.180 And you're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

00:11:09.340 If you like what you're hearing on this show, make sure you check out Pat Gray Unleashed.

00:11:13.580 It's available wherever you download your favorite podcasts.

00:11:17.100 Apparently Bernie's released some details about his tax proposal.

00:11:20.740 Yeah.

00:11:21.100 We talked about Elizabeth Warren yesterday at her 500, no, 158%.

00:11:25.220 It was all it was.

00:11:26.100 It's not 500%.

00:11:27.160 Just 158% of everything you make.

00:11:30.400 And to be clear, 500% is a little too high.

00:11:33.040 That's excessive.

00:11:33.740 Yeah.

00:11:34.020 Yeah.

00:11:34.200 That's more than your fair share.

00:11:37.100 158% though.

00:11:38.480 That's reasonable.

00:11:39.680 I think it's too low personally, because these bastard billionaires shouldn't even exist.

00:11:43.920 Right.

00:11:44.260 How about the time that they were like, they had Tom Steyer on the stage and, and they tried

00:11:49.540 to goad an argument out of the candidates.

00:11:51.580 They're like, you know, Elizabeth Warren says that a billionaire should not even exist.

00:11:55.700 And Bernie Sanders says billionaires should not even exist.

00:11:58.360 Tom Steyer.

00:11:59.200 How do you feel about that?

00:12:00.020 Oh, I too believe that billionaires shouldn't exist.

00:12:03.860 It's like, Oh, shut up.

00:12:05.340 You wuss. 1.00

00:12:07.080 I mean, that's just like, that's just pathetic.

00:12:10.280 But Bernie is a guy who's going to fund these plans and he's, and he's honest about it.

00:12:15.440 But we know that Bernie is going to make sure that the rich are paying for this because

00:12:20.680 finally, how much money do you need?

00:12:22.500 You know what I mean?

00:12:23.100 And, and, and, you know, we, we say the rich and sometimes that's a little difficult to

00:12:28.200 define because it's not, there's not a number you put on that, but Bernie was willing to

00:12:31.740 actually put a number on it yesterday.

00:12:33.260 Uh, and he told you about the tax that's going to hit, uh, you, um, if you happen to be rich,

00:12:40.620 probably not you, because the number is so high that how many Americans are going to be

00:12:46.040 included in this tax?

00:12:47.800 Oh, I mean, it's, it's top 1% of the top 1% of the top 1% of the top 1% of the top 1%.

00:12:52.440 Yeah.

00:12:52.880 It's just, I mean, when you hear the figure, you're going to laugh because you're going

00:12:55.720 to realize I could work my whole life and never earn that much money.

00:12:59.380 Yeah.

00:12:59.600 Right.

00:12:59.980 Well, here's Bernie explaining his plan.

00:13:01.700 Okay.

00:13:03.640 What we will do, what we will do is have a 4% tax on income exempting the first $29,000.

00:13:13.860 All right.

00:13:15.280 Wait, what?

00:13:16.140 You're better at arithmetic than I am.

00:13:17.780 Because what that means is if you're that average family in the middle, make 60,000 a

00:13:23.900 year, that means we're going to tax you on 31,000 at 4%.

00:13:27.760 There you go.

00:13:28.860 Oh, so, so don't worry about it because you're, it's only the wealthiest.

00:13:34.340 Yep.

00:13:36.360 93% of, of Americans.

00:13:38.660 Right.

00:13:39.240 Exactly.

00:13:39.780 And you're probably, if you're listening to the show right now, what are the odds that

00:13:42.880 you happen to be in the wealthiest 93%?

00:13:44.880 I mean, it's, I mean, if you make 29,000.

00:13:48.180 You can afford to shave a little money off of that.

00:13:50.180 You're not even going to miss that 4%.

00:13:51.760 You won't miss it.

00:13:52.560 And you probably, like, if you're sitting in your car and you're like, I don't even know

00:13:55.100 what it would be like to earn $29,000 a year.

00:13:58.680 It's too much money.

00:13:59.740 I mean.

00:14:00.000 You've got a Bugatti.

00:14:01.200 Right.

00:14:01.420 You've got a Porsche.

00:14:02.540 Probably a Lamborghini.

00:14:03.500 A Lamborghini.

00:14:04.260 Yeah.

00:14:04.400 A couple of yachts.

00:14:05.380 You live in a 50,000 square foot home.

00:14:07.300 Yeah.

00:14:08.140 Yeah.

00:14:08.400 Probably.

00:14:08.540 On a hill somewhere.

00:14:09.420 Well, maybe 40,000.

00:14:10.260 It depends.

00:14:10.680 At what area.

00:14:11.180 If you're in Southern California, you could probably only afford 40,000 square feet.

00:14:15.160 Yeah.

00:14:15.340 But if you may be in the middle of the country, you get 50,000.

00:14:17.560 I mean, think about that.

00:14:18.300 That's $29,000.

00:14:21.580 Yeah.

00:14:21.780 Think about that.

00:14:22.240 If you could go to the bank, you could pull all that 29,000 out.

00:14:24.860 You could lay it all out with individual ones.

00:14:26.820 It would stack super high.

00:14:28.700 Maybe to the whole ceiling.

00:14:30.000 I'll bet it'd be over an inch.

00:14:31.300 I'll bet it'd be over an inch high.

00:14:33.560 Maybe.

00:14:34.180 That stack of bills.

00:14:34.920 And I mean, now when you're raking all this cash in, if you are the type of person out

00:14:41.600 there and you live this lifestyle, if you make over $29,000 a year, I would love to hear

00:14:46.760 your story.

00:14:47.600 Because I used to love Robin Leach doing Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.

00:14:51.640 Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.

00:14:53.100 Yeah.

00:14:53.560 You remember?

00:14:54.140 Yeah.

00:14:54.540 And they would just go in.

00:14:55.440 They'd just be like, look at this whole house is marble.

00:14:57.960 And then they have a slide to get down to their car.

00:15:00.820 And these people make a whopping $29,000 a year.

00:15:07.880 I remember he said that how many times?

00:15:09.880 Oh.

00:15:10.480 And you're like, oh my gosh, imagine if I could grow up and get to that level.

00:15:14.620 You know, you would just be like, I'm so rich.

00:15:17.540 I actually want more taxes because I am having an issue counting my money.

00:15:23.620 Yeah.

00:15:23.840 It just piles up so fast.

00:15:25.900 And the guilt factor that you've taken so much from society.

00:15:29.380 Well, at some point.

00:15:29.840 You made enough money.

00:15:31.360 You made enough money.

00:15:32.360 It's true.

00:15:33.180 And we've heard that many times.

00:15:34.640 Yes.

00:15:34.920 So if you happen to be one of these spectacular people among us that earn over, over $29,000

00:15:43.160 a year, we'd love to hear your story of wealth.

00:15:45.740 But beyond that, I think the truth here is that Bernie is at least being honest.

00:15:53.080 Yeah.

00:15:53.400 That's crazy.

00:15:54.320 Can you imagine the balls?

00:15:55.880 $29,000.

00:15:56.720 Now, you're exempted if you make $29,000.

00:16:00.060 $29,000?

00:16:02.380 That's the cutoff point?

00:16:03.860 And that means that this tax will hit literally everyone who is not in poverty.

00:16:09.840 Yes.

00:16:10.280 That is like legitimately what happens here.

00:16:12.580 It's the poverty line.

00:16:13.540 Probably $29,000 is probably the poverty line.

00:16:15.500 May very well be the reason you picked it.

00:16:16.360 Like in California, in New York, it's probably more than that.

00:16:21.300 Yeah.

00:16:21.440 It varies because it also varies on how many kids you have and whether you're married and

00:16:26.120 all these different things.

00:16:27.260 But it's right around here.

00:16:30.300 I will say, I do give him credit for actually blurting that out.

00:16:35.880 Yeah.

00:16:36.260 I do too.

00:16:36.640 $29,000 a year, this tax will hit you.

00:16:39.040 And you'll be paying more and more and more and more and more and more to the federal government

00:16:42.640 until basically they just have the whole thing.

00:16:45.860 And that's just his wealth tax, right?

00:16:48.000 I think that was for the healthcare stuff.

00:16:52.220 So he's going to take, he's going to give you, it's 4%.

00:16:56.400 There's a 4% tax.

00:16:58.740 It's actually 4%.

00:16:59.640 For healthcare, right?

00:17:01.960 So they just take that out of your check and it goes into the healthcare co-opers.

00:17:07.000 And then what that does for you is, of course, you get to wait in line a really long time

00:17:10.260 for your surgeries.

00:17:11.800 Yes.

00:17:12.220 Which is nice.

00:17:12.920 You get a place in line though.

00:17:14.040 You're guaranteed a place in line.

00:17:15.260 Now, you might not ever get to the surgery.

00:17:16.400 You may die before the surgery, but you're in line.

00:17:20.240 And what else are they supposed to do?

00:17:21.240 Sometimes it only takes 9, 10 months to get the surgery though that you need.

00:17:24.980 That's it.

00:17:25.520 Yeah, that's it.

00:17:26.300 You can't wait 9 or 10 months.

00:17:27.620 This is what's happening in this country.

00:17:29.480 People are making $29,000 a year.

00:17:31.340 They're all spoiled.

00:17:32.280 And there are some services, I was told by my surgeon who did my neck surgery.

00:17:39.480 Was he?

00:17:39.880 He probably makes, I don't think he makes $29,000 for that job.

00:17:43.300 But he probably makes a good 15.

00:17:44.700 I think $15,000 to $16,000-ish.

00:17:48.040 You know?

00:17:49.080 But he said, he was saying, because I started with the injections, you know, to kind of calm

00:17:56.360 it down and stuff.

00:17:56.980 Yeah.

00:17:57.360 It works for a few minutes, but then after a while it goes away.

00:18:00.660 But anyway, he was saying, now if you lived in Canada, you couldn't even get it.

00:18:05.480 They don't even offer it.

00:18:06.620 They don't offer the injections?

00:18:07.580 You can't do it.

00:18:08.140 Yeah.

00:18:09.040 So you've got to go directly to surgery immediately, even though the injection would be a heck of

00:18:15.860 a lot cheaper and easier to do, but they don't do it.

00:18:22.760 Wow.

00:18:23.040 So you just suffer until you can get surgery, and that's scheduled off, you know, six months

00:18:27.740 in advance.

00:18:28.420 Yeah.

00:18:29.380 Look, I mean-

00:18:30.260 That's nuts.

00:18:30.840 It's ridiculous.

00:18:32.360 And, you know, the $29,000 thing is an incredible line.

00:18:36.400 I mean, look, you work your ass off for, I've worked many years for less than $29,000.

00:18:41.140 You know, doing good solid work is a great thing, and there's nothing to be ashamed of for

00:18:46.340 making $29,000 a year.

00:18:47.880 You certainly shouldn't be attacked for it, though.

00:18:49.220 You know, you shouldn't be attacked for being so wealthy that you're making $29,000 a year.

00:18:55.640 That's ridiculous.

00:18:56.940 And the idea that this is the solution to our healthcare problems is a real issue.

00:19:01.640 There's a place in Oklahoma that does, they decided to just kind of just change the way

00:19:09.380 medicine is done.

00:19:10.320 And we talk about this free market healthcare thing all the time, but it never comes to

00:19:14.240 fruition.

00:19:14.800 Well, they decided to just do it.

00:19:16.320 So it was a couple doctors.

00:19:17.440 The main guy is an anesthesiologist, and they started this surgery center, and they now

00:19:24.240 post all of the prices for their surgery online.

00:19:28.660 You go to their website.

00:19:30.000 All right, this one's $3,000.

00:19:31.800 That's how much it costs.

00:19:33.040 They don't take any insurance.

00:19:34.060 They don't deal with it at all.

00:19:35.000 You have to go in, and you have to pay for it.

00:19:36.740 However, you know exactly what it costs, right?

00:19:39.680 You know, and it's much cheaper than the other places around are charging.

00:19:45.280 They don't jack up prices to try to get insurance money.

00:19:48.940 They don't do any of that.

00:19:50.800 They just, and they have highly qualified people who come in and do these things, and they do

00:19:55.700 them well.

00:19:56.920 Are they doing well?

00:19:57.820 And they're doing really well with it.

00:19:59.300 They're doing really well with it.

00:20:00.340 In fact, I think it's been open for, you know, 15 or 18 years now, and they have not raised

00:20:08.620 their prices since they opened.

00:20:11.160 Their prices are the same.

00:20:12.820 That's pretty amazing.

00:20:13.640 When they opened.

00:20:14.180 Wow.

00:20:14.820 Think about that.

00:20:16.180 And here's something that it's in the real world.

00:20:19.320 It's actually happening.

00:20:20.860 It's working.

00:20:21.800 Is it dominating the conversation, even for conservatives?

00:20:27.000 No.

00:20:27.580 Why?

00:20:28.680 Instead, we're talking about, well, look, of course we have to keep all of these big programs

00:20:32.720 that already exist, but let's not slightly expand them or really, really expand them.

00:20:38.860 That's the debate.

00:20:40.720 Oh, we're going to keep, like, Obamacare.

00:20:42.580 Like, remember there was a time, do you guys remember this?

00:20:45.480 When Republicans said getting rid of Obamacare was a priority?

00:20:49.300 When's the last time you heard anybody say that?

00:20:51.800 March 2016.

00:20:53.700 Now it's all, oh, well, of course we have to keep that, but what we'd like to do is

00:20:57.040 do this slight improvement here and there and try to change this or that.

00:21:00.460 Uh-huh.

00:21:00.680 You know, what happened?

00:21:03.040 Instead, now, it's everything we said about Obamacare is coming true.

00:21:07.540 First of all, it hasn't worked.

00:21:08.900 Mm-hmm.

00:21:09.160 Second of all, and we know, by the way, we know-

00:21:10.400 It was more expensive.

00:21:11.520 It's more expensive.

00:21:12.400 And we know it doesn't work because every single Democrat who is running for president against

00:21:18.880 it.

00:21:19.100 They're all saying how bad it is that we have to improve it.

00:21:22.220 Now, they don't say it in those words, but they all have plans to double and triple the

00:21:26.000 size of it or change it completely.

00:21:28.360 So we know they don't think it's working.

00:21:29.840 We also told you that was coming.

00:21:31.340 Yep.

00:21:31.560 That was the next step, in fact, is that-

00:21:34.600 It's a Trojan horse.

00:21:35.180 It's a Trojan horse.

00:21:36.140 Well, it's not really a Trojan horse, is it?

00:21:37.720 We're just saying it's right there.

00:21:38.960 It's right there.

00:21:39.280 We're telling you.

00:21:39.960 That's what the architect of the plan said.

00:21:42.560 Yes.

00:21:43.960 And nobody believed it, I guess.

00:21:45.440 It was a conspiracy theory.

00:21:46.880 Yeah.

00:21:47.080 And now we're to a point where it has changed from an issue that was very unpopular for

00:21:57.980 Democrats to one that is now part of what we have.

00:22:01.700 We can't take it away from the people who need it.

00:22:03.700 It's no longer a thing where Republicans are even saying it needs to go away.

00:22:08.040 What they're saying is, well, look, it's there and we can't get rid of it, but we can

00:22:12.180 improve this 1% of it.

00:22:15.080 That's what happens with these entitlements.

00:22:16.920 It becomes, as soon as people start getting it, then it becomes part of society, part of

00:22:23.960 our social contract, which I don't remember signing.

00:22:27.500 Right.

00:22:27.920 And it is something that dominates-

00:22:30.620 Just like Medicare and Social Security.

00:22:32.400 Yeah.

00:22:32.560 Same thing.

00:22:33.540 I mean, there were, at the time, lots of conservatives who pointed out, hey, Social Security, that

00:22:37.600 just sounds like a giant redistribution of wealth program.

00:22:40.300 Yeah, it's socialism.

00:22:41.260 And at its very best, it sounds like the government forcing you to save.

00:22:46.560 And I love the fact that Democrats now say, well, Republicans were saying back then that

00:22:52.460 it was socialism.

00:22:53.900 Yeah.

00:22:54.160 Yeah.

00:22:54.580 Because it was.

00:22:55.900 And it is.

00:22:56.620 And people might have gotten used to it now.

00:22:58.620 And so even some Republicans love it now.

00:23:01.640 Oh, it's very popular, these programs.

00:23:03.520 Well, of course they are.

00:23:04.460 You made it part of their life.

00:23:06.600 The average person gets more than two times the amount that they put in out of Social Security.

00:23:10.820 And Medicare is even worse.

00:23:12.720 I mean, Medicare is absolutely the main thing bankrupting this country right now.

00:23:17.040 And, you know, the fact that they don't even means test it, that Bill Gates can get Medicare

00:23:22.400 if he wants, is completely ridiculous.

00:23:25.760 We all understand that there's a good motivation behind that program.

00:23:29.260 But maybe if you didn't take our money our entire lives and spent it on crap, we'd be

00:23:35.760 able to pay for our own retirement.

00:23:37.140 We'd be able to pay for our own insurance after we retire.

00:23:40.040 You know, instead, we have these programs.

00:23:43.320 And I think a completely underrated worst president of all time nominee is Lyndon Johnson.

00:23:49.440 Never gets, never gets the attention he deserves when you talk about the worst presidents in

00:23:54.600 U.S. history.

00:23:55.920 But he deserves that title.

00:23:58.500 He's definitely down there.

00:23:59.320 He's definitely down there.

00:24:00.300 Yeah, he is.

00:24:01.080 And he created all these programs that are creating all this debt.

00:24:04.400 And now we have Democrats creating even more programs that will double and triple down on

00:24:09.320 these ideas that didn't work.

00:24:10.760 And Republicans barely bring it up anymore.

00:24:14.000 I mean, you do not hear Republicans make arguments about debt and deficit anymore.

00:24:20.160 No, you don't.

00:24:20.480 It's just not a thing right now.

00:24:22.120 And it's embarrassing.

00:24:23.440 It's embarrassing.

00:24:24.940 Because if these things actually mattered to us, and I know we've made these arguments.

00:24:29.720 I know people in the audience are making these arguments all the time.

00:24:32.800 But, you know, if you didn't believe it then, and you were making the arguments, then you're

00:24:39.340 just playing the same crappy brand of politics that every politician plays.

00:24:43.340 If you care about the debt and the deficit, people in Washington right now deserve heat

00:24:48.180 for it.

00:24:48.520 Because they're not addressing it at all.

00:24:50.660 At all.

00:24:53.800 This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:25:02.800 Hey, it's Glenn.

00:25:08.280 And if you like what you hear on the program, you should check out Pat Gray Unleashed.

00:25:27.860 Maxine Waters is an interesting character. 0.82

00:25:32.040 We love her because she gives us incredible amounts of material.

00:25:35.600 I mean, she's basically a fountain of youth for talk radio material. 1.00

00:25:40.260 No matter what you have, you can always say, what did Maxine say yesterday?

00:25:43.760 It's always going to be something dumb.

00:25:46.320 You always have that there.

00:25:47.580 You can always find whatever it is, and you can do an entire show about it.

00:25:51.360 So here is Maxine. 0.98

00:25:52.500 This is the most recent example.

00:25:54.380 She's talking about Ben Carson, and I believe it was MSNBC.

00:25:58.940 Listen.

00:25:59.520 Well, you know, I sent him a letter, and he sent me a letter, you know, claiming that I had no manners, et cetera.

00:26:05.740 I basically said to my staff, I really don't have time to be bothered with somebody who doesn't know the difference between REO and OEO.

00:26:15.060 I mean, you know, this guy just doesn't have the background, the capability, the intelligence to do the job.

00:26:22.920 Oh, my gosh.

00:26:23.460 He doesn't know what he's doing.

00:26:24.940 He doesn't care about this issue.

00:26:26.760 No.

00:26:26.960 He rises to the occasion to basically support this president, any opportunity that he gets.

00:26:33.200 And so I'm going to be so happy when they're all out of here.

00:26:37.660 They're hurting our country.

00:26:39.740 They're undermining our democracy, and they're being very destructive.

00:26:43.280 Yeah, we don't have a democracy.

00:26:43.720 And I hope the American people can see that if we allow this president and his cabinet to get away with what they're doing,

00:26:50.940 they will be destroying, you know, the presidency and that office forever.

00:26:56.340 Oh, my gosh.

00:26:57.380 I'm sorry.

00:26:57.760 Is she calling a black man stupid?

00:26:59.980 She is.

00:27:00.900 A black neurosurgeon.

00:27:02.380 Wow.

00:27:03.300 She's calling a neurosurgeon stupid.

00:27:06.580 Huh.

00:27:07.200 That's a fascinating, fascinating claim.

00:27:11.100 Now, Ben Carson, you could say you don't like his policies.

00:27:14.000 Uh-huh.

00:27:14.400 You can say you don't like the way.

00:27:15.880 You don't like his demeanor.

00:27:16.440 Maybe he's a little too sleepy for you.

00:27:18.020 Yeah.

00:27:18.480 I could see that.

00:27:19.420 But not intelligent?

00:27:20.280 But not intelligent.

00:27:21.000 Come on.

00:27:21.460 That does not compute, especially from someone like Maxine Waters.

00:27:24.280 How many dumb neurosurgeons do you know? 0.99

00:27:26.800 Oh, tons.

00:27:28.300 I'll tell you, man.

00:27:29.720 If I've seen one.

00:27:31.140 One of the fastest growing segments of our population are dumb neurosurgeons.

00:27:36.200 People don't know that.

00:27:37.540 They're all over the place.

00:27:39.260 Just doing their neurosurgery in a dumb way.

00:27:41.920 That's what they do.

00:27:43.060 Every day they wake up and just go in there and they just do a complicated neurosurgery.

00:27:48.960 They're just messing around in your brain and they're too stupid to know which parts of

00:27:54.620 the brain to connect or remove.

00:27:56.520 Yeah.

00:27:57.280 I mean, if you've ever watched The Simpsons, Ben Carson's basically Dr. Nick.

00:28:02.780 He's the guy who comes out and he just kind of fumbles his way through all the surgeries.

00:28:08.060 And it's just loving and hilarious.

00:28:10.180 Oh, you've paralyzed me.

00:28:13.480 Ah, that's Ben Carson.

00:28:15.840 Now, it's weird because I've seen he's won all these awards and all these incredible things

00:28:20.060 that no one had ever done before in the field.

00:28:22.860 But he's basically just a moron.

00:28:25.300 And I guess he just lucked his way into fixing all those people.

00:28:28.580 What a great story.

00:28:29.740 And separating Siamese twins at the brain. 1.00

00:28:32.420 I mean, how hard is that, though?

00:28:33.480 It's not hard.

00:28:33.780 We need scissors. 0.97

00:28:34.580 What's the big deal?

00:28:35.320 I mean, anybody.

00:28:36.460 You put scissors in between them and you cut.

00:28:37.960 And you cut.

00:28:38.300 I don't know.

00:28:38.660 I mean, how hard could it be?

00:28:42.240 It's just a moron.

00:28:43.500 Any moron can do that.

00:28:45.160 You go to Home Depot.

00:28:46.820 You get some hedge clippers.

00:28:48.520 Right.

00:28:48.960 And you just snip.

00:28:49.760 And you use them.

00:28:50.220 Snip, snip, snip.

00:28:51.100 Done.

00:28:51.440 And then they're separated.

00:28:52.620 And you say, nurse, sew them back up.

00:28:54.340 Yeah.

00:28:54.980 Because I bet he's not even doing the sewing.

00:28:56.780 You're right.

00:28:57.140 I bet he's not.

00:28:57.740 I bet he's not.

00:28:58.400 You put it.

00:28:59.240 You got a little sewing machine.

00:29:00.780 You put their heads under there.

00:29:02.020 You press the pedal.

00:29:02.940 I don't know how it works exactly.

00:29:04.080 But it's something like that.

00:29:04.900 It's just like any moron could do it.

00:29:10.280 It's not that big of a deal.

00:29:11.620 Right.

00:29:11.980 So she makes a really good point there, obviously.

00:29:14.760 She's made a lot of really good points over the years, though.

00:29:17.620 As far as I'm concerned, the teapotter can go straight to hell. 1.00

00:29:20.880 They say to me all the time, you appear to be angry.

00:29:24.200 If you're black and American, you're not a little bit mad.

00:29:26.880 You crazy.

00:29:27.440 Stop sending those dog whistles to white supremacists.

00:29:31.400 Today we declare we're not taking it anymore.

00:29:36.320 This liberal will be all about socializing.

00:29:39.580 Oh, no.

00:29:41.120 Oh, no.

00:29:41.660 It will be about something else.

00:29:43.860 Something else.

00:29:44.400 Something else.

00:29:44.880 What is the word?

00:29:45.620 What is the word?

00:29:45.940 Basically.

00:29:46.660 Basically.

00:29:47.340 Taking over.

00:29:48.160 Taking over.

00:29:49.680 And the government running all of your companies.

00:29:53.480 Keep your nasty comments away from us. 0.93

00:29:55.880 We are rallying and we are protesting.

00:29:59.080 You don't intimidate us.

00:30:01.500 You don't scare us.

00:30:03.720 We are going to fight against you and your policies.

00:30:07.060 We are going to struggle.

00:30:08.640 We are going to do everything necessary to show you, you cannot take this country down

00:30:14.680 the path that you think you're going to take it down.

00:30:17.280 Don't ever let me see, again in life, those Republicans in our hall, on our screens, talking

00:30:28.160 about anything.

00:30:29.960 Right.

00:30:30.440 That's a pretty restrictive answer.

00:30:32.000 These are demons.

00:30:33.020 They're demons.

00:30:33.640 Demons.

00:30:34.240 Okay.

00:30:34.620 Literally demonizing.

00:30:36.020 These are legislators who are destroying this country.

00:30:40.840 Man.

00:30:42.080 So she's, she's, she knows.

00:30:45.020 Are they demons or are they legislators trying to destroy the country?

00:30:47.800 I feel like those are two moderately different things.

00:30:51.640 She's, she is one of these people that just opens the mouth and about two minutes after 0.89

00:30:58.460 she's done speaking, tries to figure out what she's saying.

00:31:01.380 There's no, there's no plan going in.

00:31:03.720 You know, it's like, it's, you know, it's like Ben Carson with his neurosurgery.

00:31:07.540 He doesn't know what he's doing when he goes in there.

00:31:08.960 He just starts cutting, as we mentioned.

00:31:12.300 He just starts cutting things and connecting tubes and see what happens.

00:31:15.600 You know, does the person walk afterwards?

00:31:17.020 I don't know.

00:31:17.540 Maybe, maybe not.

00:31:18.360 We'll see.

00:31:19.520 That's, that's Ben Carson.

00:31:21.540 The guy just, you know, he just is just a haphazard guy when it comes to his neurosurgery.

00:31:28.140 I mean, it's unbelievable.

00:31:29.620 It is.

00:31:29.940 And one really interesting clip that you played there was Maxine Waters, and she does this

00:31:35.080 all the time saying essentially, um, well, uh, they always call black people angry.

00:31:41.160 Um, and, and that's, of course we should be angry, but there's that sort of undercurrent

00:31:46.800 there of if you call, if you criticize a black person, then you don't like black people.

00:31:53.420 You could, you see, oh, they're all angry.

00:31:55.280 Only, only black people are angry. 1.00

00:31:56.800 And this is very standard left-wing procedure.

00:31:59.360 It's the same thing they do with Soros, right?

00:32:00.760 It's like, well, George Soros, you're only criticizing him because he's Jewish.

00:32:04.580 The fact that he, and by the way, he is an atheist, but the, you know, I mean, like the,

00:32:11.360 no one has, there's no criticism of him because he's Jewish.

00:32:14.560 Like that's, that's not, I have nothing to do with it.

00:32:16.620 It's a, it's not, it's, there's no, there's no part of that that connects.

00:32:20.440 That's you.

00:32:21.600 That is you coming up with that, uh, conclusion.

00:32:24.800 Not me.

00:32:26.440 It's you.

00:32:27.220 It's you're saying, oh, well, it must be because he's Jewish.

00:32:29.620 Well, why are you saying that?

00:32:31.700 Right.

00:32:31.900 It's not what we're saying.

00:32:32.760 Why are you saying it?

00:32:34.140 And, and, and, uh, with Waters, it's the same thing here where she absolutely will criticize

00:32:40.020 any, any Republican who criticizes an African-American and they'll, she'll say it's because of race.

00:32:45.640 But here she is criticizing an African-American, calling him stupid.

00:32:50.240 It's perfectly fine.

00:32:51.220 Yeah.

00:32:51.900 Uh, I, you know, I, I kind of tend to think that the color of your skin should not dictate

00:32:56.100 whether that's okay.

00:32:57.620 Right.

00:32:58.240 You should be able to be able to criticize anyone you want, no matter what the color of 0.93

00:33:02.260 their skin is, as long as you're not criticizing them for the color of their skin.

00:33:06.080 Now you're making crazy talk.

00:33:07.420 I know.

00:33:08.000 Back in the sixties with MLK.

00:33:10.640 That guy said kind of the same thing you just did.

00:33:14.080 Oh, it's insane.

00:33:16.780 Oh, what a maroon.

00:33:22.540 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:33:24.900 Like listening to this podcast.

00:33:37.460 If you're not a subscriber, become one now on iTunes.

00:33:40.760 And while you're there, do us a favor and rate the show.

00:33:43.140 We have a major problem in our country, Pat, which is, uh, we have, I believe, 607 billionaires

00:33:50.040 in this nation and only three are running for president right now.

00:33:53.460 We need to get that number up.

00:33:55.020 I want to get it to at least half.

00:33:57.100 I mean, are they, they just don't care about the country?

00:34:00.400 The other, the other 604 just don't care.

00:34:04.280 They don't care.

00:34:05.100 Wow.

00:34:05.400 You know, they're just fumbling their way through neurosurgery probably with Ben Carson.

00:34:09.760 That's what they're doing.

00:34:11.160 Uh, Mark Cuban is, uh, making some noise.

00:34:13.280 Now I don't think he's jumping in, uh, uh, to run for president.

00:34:16.820 I, I mean, do, can we possibly have any more people who are running for president?

00:34:20.460 Well, we could, I guess we could.

00:34:22.020 I keep saying we can't.

00:34:23.140 And then Deval Patrick jumps in and then Michael Bloomberg jumps in.

00:34:26.960 Uh, who else has jumped in recently?

00:34:28.740 Steyer jumped in late.

00:34:30.040 Yeah.

00:34:30.420 Uh, there has been, it just keeps, they keep coming to go away persist that maybe Hillary

00:34:36.700 gets in.

00:34:37.460 I don't know.

00:34:37.960 I don't believe that.

00:34:39.320 Yeah.

00:34:39.540 I believed it for a while.

00:34:40.540 I'm not sure now we're past the filing deadlines in, uh, New Hampshire, but not Iowa.

00:34:46.040 That's not until the end of the, I think the end of the year, like December 30th or something.

00:34:50.340 Is it really that late?

00:34:51.040 I think it is.

00:34:51.580 Um, so you'd have to skip New Hampshire if you wanted it, which is what Bloomberg is doing.

00:34:56.400 I don't know.

00:34:57.220 I mean, I don't know if Deval Patrick qualified, but I mean, he, that's,

00:35:00.420 that's, I guess he probably must have because that's his only chance of, of competing.

00:35:05.320 I mean, this is the next door state, even though he still has no chance.

00:35:08.340 Uh, Mark, Mark Cuban was asked, uh, cause people noticed, uh, Yahoo finance that he had,

00:35:13.740 uh, registered democracy.com and he's not doing anything with it, but it's democracy.com.

00:35:20.600 And the question was, well, what are you planning to do with democracy.com?

00:35:24.660 Um, he says, uh, Cuban says that it won't, he registered it because he didn't want it 0.91

00:35:29.320 to be used by someone with a political agenda.

00:35:32.580 So he just, what, what?

00:35:35.040 That's what he said.

00:35:36.080 Okay.

00:35:37.020 Now he, of course, is the, uh, Mavs owner, a guy on Shark Tank.

00:35:39.940 Uh, and he says, you, you know, you can, you should see all the, uh, domains I, I own.

00:35:44.160 I rarely sell, sell any.

00:35:46.660 And when he was pressed about it, he said, and you can do this, you can play along right

00:35:50.520 now.

00:35:51.120 If you're in front of your computer, if you're on your phone right now, play along here,

00:35:55.000 Pat.

00:35:55.380 Okay.

00:35:55.640 I'm going to play along.

00:35:56.540 Go to the president.com.

00:36:00.300 Uh, the president.com.

00:36:05.620 Just having a tough time.

00:36:06.860 The president.com.

00:36:09.820 Uh, all right.

00:36:11.080 Oh, it's access TV.

00:36:12.980 Uh, it's his.

00:36:14.360 Website.

00:36:14.960 Magnolia pictures.

00:36:16.380 It's Cuban companies.

00:36:18.160 All the Cuban companies.

00:36:19.900 So he asked, can you imagine this guy runs for president?

00:36:22.080 He's got his website is the president.com.

00:36:26.040 That's a solid marketing tactic.

00:36:27.900 Very weird.

00:36:28.940 I don't know.

00:36:29.440 I mean, I feel like Trump has opened this door up and like all these guys think they

00:36:32.700 could be president now.

00:36:33.760 Cause they all think.

00:36:34.360 Do you think he's, he's considering?

00:36:36.860 I do think, I mean, he's talked about.

00:36:39.560 He has enough.

00:36:40.660 And he's talked about the fact that he can beat Trump.

00:36:43.220 He thinks, he thinks so.

00:36:44.400 He thinks he can.

00:36:45.060 There's no way he could, he could, but he thinks he could.

00:36:48.080 He, I don't know where he fits exactly because he, you know, they talked for a while.

00:36:51.460 They're like, Oh, he's a libertarian.

00:36:52.540 He's not a libertarian.

00:36:53.440 He's not a libertarian.

00:36:54.160 Um, but he's also, and he's not really a Republican and he's certainly with this field, definitely

00:36:58.740 not a Democrat.

00:36:59.480 I mean, he doesn't, he, he's, he'd be way into the right of a Michael Bloomberg.

00:37:04.320 Yeah.

00:37:04.720 Um, you know, I think so.

00:37:05.540 He is a legitimately pro business guy, but has a lot of policies that, you know, we wouldn't

00:37:10.260 like as conservatives, you know, big healthcare initiatives and all the other, all the rest.

00:37:15.540 But I mean, at least he's, he, he has the same, the things that you like about Trump where

00:37:20.280 he's a guy who, who is a business person and under, and understands those things.

00:37:24.280 He has those attributes, but we already have that guy in office, right?

00:37:27.660 Yeah.

00:37:27.920 Um, so I don't know what the thirst would be for a Mark Cuban candidacy at this point.

00:37:33.240 And again, if you're a billionaire, why do you want that job?

00:37:36.240 Oh gosh.

00:37:37.160 I don't even, I don't like talking about it.

00:37:38.960 Unless you are a mega patriot and you believe you're the only one who can fix it.

00:37:44.280 I can understand you taking the shot then, but why would you want this hassle?

00:37:49.000 Why would you open up yourself to all of this madness?

00:37:51.800 I wouldn't want anything to do with it.

00:37:53.660 If I was a billionaire, I'm just enjoying my life.

00:37:56.820 I'm not, I'm not running for president.

00:37:58.800 I mean, you know, and you know, I mean, you don't have to be a billionaire.

00:38:01.000 You just have to be massively wealthy to understand that.

00:38:03.440 Like earning over $29,000 a year.

00:38:05.620 If you are.

00:38:07.060 Well, I can only dream.

00:38:08.600 I can only dream of that.

00:38:09.520 Yeah, that's never going to happen.

00:38:10.860 No.

00:38:11.100 But Bernie Sanders thinks you're rich at 29K a year.

00:38:13.380 I mean, I think Mark might earn more than that.

00:38:16.560 It's possible.

00:38:17.260 But when you're a billionaire, think of your life, right?

00:38:19.200 Every decision you've made works out.

00:38:22.020 Everything that you think is smart is, is smart.

00:38:25.100 And everyone tells you is smart.

00:38:26.820 Like, it's understandable why you'd think you'd be the only guy who could fix whatever problem you're addressing.

00:38:32.120 Yeah.

00:38:32.360 And I'm sure that's why Bloomberg's in there.

00:38:34.580 Trump himself said that's why he was in there.

00:38:37.640 Steyer, I'm sure, is the same way.

00:38:39.360 And Cuban's probably the same way. 0.98

00:38:40.980 I mean, you could find, we could get to a point where everybody running for president is a billionaire.

00:38:45.160 We're not that far away, guys.

00:38:46.640 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:38:54.120 Some good news, because CBS is going to produce a drama based on Stacey Abrams' romance novels.

00:39:16.160 Wait, Stacey Abrams, the true governor?

00:39:18.780 The true governor of Georgia.

00:39:20.160 The true governor of Georgia, yes.

00:39:21.400 The election was stolen from her.

00:39:24.440 And even though she lost by 50,000 votes, it was stolen from her.

00:39:29.160 I will say this, too.

00:39:30.920 You bastards out there who think if Trump loses, it could be fixed.

00:39:36.640 And you're going to complain about this afterwards?

00:39:39.020 You bastards.

00:39:40.280 By the way, Stacey Abrams is the rightful governor of Georgia.

00:39:43.800 The fact that the left continually, Elizabeth Warren just says it.

00:39:47.660 She said the other day, it was like, oh, well, it's actually Stacey Abrams' seat, and it was taken from her.

00:39:52.020 Like, no, that is not what happened.

00:39:54.920 That is not what happened.

00:39:55.980 She lost.

00:39:57.720 She lost the election.

00:40:00.080 It's over.

00:40:01.760 Get over it.

00:40:03.160 They can't.

00:40:04.040 They can't.

00:40:04.400 They won't.

00:40:04.900 So, in 2004, she published a book, and she's done several since, but this one was under the name Selena Montgomery, one of eight novels she's written under that name.

00:40:18.020 The book was entitled Never Tell, and it follows the tale of a criminal psychologist with a dark past who works with an investigative journalist who is searching for a serial killer in New Orleans.

00:40:31.340 So, CBS is doing a full series on this.

00:40:36.460 Pretty amazing.

00:40:38.480 We were able to get a few excerpts from a few of her books, not just Never Tell, but we do have that as well.

00:40:46.740 I'm interested in this because this is something the left gets to do that the right would never be able to do.

00:40:52.980 Right, right, right.

00:40:53.840 No one cares about Stacey Abrams and her romance novels.

00:41:00.800 Nobody cares about them.

00:41:02.400 No one.

00:41:03.420 There's no reason for this series to exist, right?

00:41:06.460 Right.

00:41:06.620 There's absolutely no chance of it being good.

00:41:09.700 Nobody's ever heard of Stacey Abrams' romance novels.

00:41:13.300 How much money did Netflix give Barack Obama to produce television shows?

00:41:16.480 Well, some rumors have it at $100 million.

00:41:19.040 Others at $50 million.

00:41:20.180 But whatever it was, it was a lot.

00:41:21.680 Tens of millions of dollars.

00:41:21.960 Tens of millions of dollars.

00:41:22.880 For what?

00:41:23.560 What have they proven?

00:41:24.780 Well, they did that Chinese thing.

00:41:26.320 You know, the Chinese companies in America.

00:41:30.220 Chinese workers in America.

00:41:31.800 What was it called?

00:41:33.100 I don't know.

00:41:33.780 I did not watch it, so I don't remember the title.

00:41:36.840 But, yeah, they got a lot of money for that.

00:41:39.340 A lot of money for that.

00:41:41.140 Now we'll see.

00:41:42.660 You're going to really be excited about the series when you hear her incredible writing skill.

00:41:52.880 These are a few sentences I can read out of paragraphs.

00:41:57.780 This one from Sebastian Cain and Dr. Caitlin Leida in Secrets and Lies.

00:42:03.360 Her book, Secrets and Lies.

00:42:04.980 Sounds saucy.

00:42:06.080 And this is a paragraph.

00:42:07.520 I can read part of one sentence.

00:42:11.800 Wow.

00:42:12.460 Yeah.

00:42:12.820 Not the full sentence.

00:42:13.800 No, I can't.

00:42:14.800 No, but with urgency, she accepted him, fascinated by the power.

00:42:23.320 And for a moment, she wavered, wondering if she was prepared.

00:42:29.100 In the next second, she knew she never could be.

00:42:33.760 Tell me that's not powerful.

00:42:37.260 Tell me.

00:42:37.580 Like, really bad versions of, like, the trash at, like, airports.

00:42:42.940 Yes.

00:42:43.260 And the reduced rack.

00:42:44.160 Did you get it at a, yes.

00:42:46.140 With Fabio on the cover?

00:42:47.860 The $5 rack.

00:42:49.460 Yeah.

00:42:49.900 At an airport.

00:42:51.060 And I guess, like, this has been, Fifty Shades of Grey has made this into somewhat of an industry.

00:42:55.820 Is that what she's going for here?

00:42:57.300 I think so, yeah.

00:42:58.240 Now, from her book, Hidden Sins, there are two sentences I can read from a paragraph.

00:43:04.280 Oh.

00:43:04.800 Yeah.

00:43:05.200 Two full sentences.

00:43:06.320 Two full sentences.

00:43:09.260 Watch me love you.

00:43:10.760 He commanded silently.

00:43:12.640 Wait.

00:43:12.920 How did he?

00:43:13.740 How did he?

00:43:14.460 Wait.

00:43:14.940 He commanded silently?

00:43:16.440 Wait.

00:43:16.640 Hold on.

00:43:17.180 Wait.

00:43:17.580 Watch me love you.

00:43:19.020 Watch me love you.

00:43:20.080 He commanded silently.

00:43:21.980 That's a good point.

00:43:22.920 I guess with his look.

00:43:24.340 Yeah, but you could do something.

00:43:25.280 With his steely gaze.

00:43:25.940 You could say, hey, come over here silently.

00:43:28.240 Yes.

00:43:28.380 Because you could, like, wave your arm or you could.

00:43:30.220 How would you say, what is it again?

00:43:32.100 Watch me love you.

00:43:33.340 Watch me love you.

00:43:34.200 No, you're supposed to just get that from the look he's giving you.

00:43:36.960 What is that look?

00:43:37.820 I don't know what that expression is.

00:43:39.480 It's a lot of expressions.

00:43:41.240 I'm not.

00:43:41.840 The human face can.

00:43:42.380 I'm not going to attempt it here on radio and TV.

00:43:44.880 No, please don't.

00:43:45.220 I don't want you to watch me love you.

00:43:46.720 It would be obscene.

00:43:47.040 It'd be obscene.

00:43:47.660 Okay.

00:43:47.940 And I'm not going to do it.

00:43:49.360 But, watch me love you.

00:43:51.760 He commanded silently.

00:43:54.820 Like, she just came up with a, she had a random collection of words.

00:43:58.080 That you just thought silently went there.

00:43:59.900 Like, he has to do that audibly.

00:44:01.700 He can only command that audibly.

00:44:05.280 Yeah, but you'd let me get to the next sentence.

00:44:06.920 I can't get past the silently thing.

00:44:08.560 It's driving me crazy.

00:44:09.380 Know that I will always be a part of you.

00:44:13.360 Now, I don't know if he actually spoke that out loud.

00:44:16.360 It doesn't say.

00:44:17.240 Or if that was silently as well.

00:44:19.020 You know, all good writers explain that completely.

00:44:22.380 Yes, they do.

00:44:23.200 They do.

00:44:23.880 They do.

00:44:24.380 They always say exactly how they commanded a thing.

00:44:27.560 If it's audibly or silently.

00:44:29.460 And she didn't do that here. 0.96

00:44:30.500 It's a big mistake.

00:44:31.780 Right.

00:44:32.180 First thing you learn in writing class.

00:44:34.920 Make sure you say how people are commanded.

00:44:37.680 Are they commanded audibly?

00:44:39.640 Or are they commanded silently?

00:44:41.220 Who knows?

00:44:42.280 This is on the level of, are you familiar with the podcast, My Dad Wrote a Porno?

00:44:49.260 No.

00:44:50.440 No.

00:44:51.380 It is amazing.

00:44:52.800 The story is the, this guy finds out that his dad has been writing these types of books.

00:45:00.880 He just decided because of like Fifty Shades of Grey to start writing like an, an X-rated novel.

00:45:07.660 This guy's dad.

00:45:09.240 So what they decided to do for a podcast is for all of them.

00:45:12.600 And it's, I think it's an HBO show now too.

00:45:14.460 It's a really big podcast, but they decided to do is it's like three people and they just sit around and they, he reads the entire book.

00:45:22.400 I think of your dad and it's really filthy.

00:45:25.520 I mean, it is filthy, but horribly written like Stacey Abrams level writing.

00:45:30.980 So it's really funny.

00:45:31.820 So he's making fun of his dad.

00:45:32.880 He's making fun of his dad.

00:45:34.440 And it's just so awkward because you're reading like the sex fantasies of your dad.

00:45:40.800 And then at the same time.

00:45:42.680 No, thank you.

00:45:43.460 He doesn't seem to really understand the female anatomy all that well.

00:45:47.860 So, so he writes things.

00:45:49.700 You're like, does he think that's how this works?

00:45:53.220 It's, it's utterly unbelievable, but it's about the level of writing from Stacey Abrams here.

00:45:59.020 There's one more sentence.

00:46:00.220 Oh, I'm sorry.

00:46:00.760 Okay.

00:46:01.000 Before we get to take a break.

00:46:03.060 Are you commanding me audibly right now to stop talking?

00:46:05.360 I'm commanding you audibly.

00:46:06.160 Yes.

00:46:06.440 Because I got to get to this line because it's powerful.

00:46:10.360 Sighs and pleas and moans mingled in enthralled chorus.

00:46:15.900 Right?

00:46:17.840 Is that beautiful or what?

00:46:19.460 Sighs.

00:46:20.240 Sighs.

00:46:21.380 And pleas. 0.97

00:46:22.560 And pleas. 0.97

00:46:23.240 And moans.

00:46:24.140 And moans.

00:46:24.980 Mingled.

00:46:25.460 They mingled.

00:46:26.140 In an enthralled chorus.

00:46:27.860 So, apparently there was a choir in there in the bedroom with them.

00:46:31.320 Right.

00:46:31.820 That they were singing while the act was happening.

00:46:35.560 And, which he doesn't include there, it was all silent.

00:46:39.480 All the sighs and moans and pleas were silent.

00:46:42.520 Silently commanding the chorus to sing.

00:46:45.620 She should have included that.

00:46:47.000 Because I don't know if I heard it.

00:46:48.480 When I'm picturing this, I can't think of, am I hearing things or is it quiet?

00:46:53.140 It's hard to figure out.

00:46:55.040 I don't know.

00:46:56.220 I don't know.

00:46:56.520 Because she doesn't specifically mention whether this is allowed or silent in this particular passage.

00:47:02.900 Wait, hold on.

00:47:08.300 The best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:47:12.520 Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

00:47:25.600 888-727-B-E-C-K.

00:47:28.080 Our very own Chad Prather doing a really cool special all this week.

00:47:33.960 Did it last night.

00:47:35.640 Has it tonight.

00:47:36.860 And then tomorrow night.

00:47:38.260 Three-parter.

00:47:38.780 Three-part series on the weirdness of Jeffrey Epstein.

00:47:43.780 Now, that's not the name of it.

00:47:45.880 But Chad joins us now.

00:47:47.600 Hey, Chad.

00:47:48.960 Hey, good morning, Pat.

00:47:50.820 Yeah, there's a lot of weirdness there.

00:47:52.560 Yeah.

00:47:53.200 In fact, he kind of had a cult or something to himself.

00:47:58.300 Didn't he want to impregnate a bunch of women and send them all over the world with his seed? 1.00

00:48:03.280 Something to that effect.

00:48:04.340 Well, what – you know, people hear this stuff and they think that it's pure fiction because it reads like something out of a Michael Crichton novel.

00:48:11.500 And we were – you know, as Candace Ortiz, our editorial producer, was doing research, we were looking into these things.

00:48:18.340 And we discovered that one of the things that Epstein found was that they were collecting the sperm of Nobel Prize recipients.

00:48:25.800 And they were putting it together in a lab because they felt that the world was getting dumber.

00:48:30.940 And that is their word, quote, dumber.

00:48:32.880 And I have to agree with them in that regard.

00:48:35.240 But what they were doing is they were wanting to start this whole new – this whole generation of smart people.

00:48:43.140 And they were going to – and so Epstein heard this.

00:48:44.980 Now, first of all, what you have to understand for a guy who accomplished so much, based on his history, Epstein was not a smart people.

00:48:51.980 He was not a smart guy.

00:48:53.840 He was a college dropout that was a horrible math and science teacher at the high school level.

00:48:58.720 And so when you learn more of these things about it, that's exactly what he wanted to do.

00:49:03.240 He wanted to generate a whole world of Epsteins out there. 1.00

00:49:08.480 And that's what he was going to do.

00:49:09.400 He was going to bring – we're going to talk about that tonight on the special.

00:49:13.200 Tonight's episode is called The Devil Has Blue Eyes.

00:49:15.880 And that was their whole thing is they were going to bring in 20 girls at a time, impregnate them. 0.97

00:49:20.660 They had to sign away all rights to the child.

00:49:23.040 And it was going to be raised by, of course, Epstein and his – Jelaine Maxwell, who was sort of the queen to his whole chess set there that made all the connections for him and kind of ran the ring.

00:49:36.960 He wanted to raise 20 children by himself with Giselle?

00:49:41.020 Really?

00:49:41.680 Obviously, you know, one would think he would have some help out there.

00:49:44.900 But, I mean, that – when you start seeing how big it is, it really is cult-like.

00:49:49.180 And that's one of the things that people don't realize.

00:49:52.040 And that's the dangerous place that we kind of stepped into because we start talking about the King Ranch in New Mexico.

00:49:59.660 A lot of people think of the King Ranch in Texas, two totally different things.

00:50:03.720 Of course, Bruce King was at one time the governor of New Mexico, and they passed down political positions like family heirlooms in New Mexico.

00:50:11.100 They owned most of not only New Mexico ranch lands, but they also are the major producer of corn in the U.S.

00:50:18.300 So they're a big, big family.

00:50:19.560 And in most interviews when they talk about the King Ranch, and I'll tell you why that's significant in a second, they actually bleep out that name.

00:50:26.180 They bleep out the King name.

00:50:27.940 But Epstein's New Mexico compound – of course, we know about the Virgin Islands, the Little James Island that he flew the Lolita Express to.

00:50:35.700 What they don't know is that he had a 10,000-acre compound with a 27,000-square-foot home right in the middle of the King Ranch.

00:50:44.980 You could not get to it unless you went over it or through the King Ranch.

00:50:48.920 So he, in essence, isolated himself with one of the most political families, most powerful families in New Mexico.

00:50:56.540 It was like building a moat around your ranch.

00:50:59.640 You were completely inaccessible.

00:51:01.460 And now we're starting to see these pictures that are emerging from the king for, I should say, what he called the Zorro Ranch there in the middle of New Mexico.

00:51:12.000 So that's where he was going to do that.

00:51:13.960 It's a pretty creepy place when you think about it.

00:51:15.900 Just down the road, there is a therapy place for Catholic priests that were caught in pedophilia.

00:51:24.420 There is a home for orphans that was co-founded by Prince Charles.

00:51:30.860 There's a number of different things.

00:51:32.160 It's, of course, not far from where they tested the atomic bombs and, again, set up a lot of the Nazi war criminals that they brought in to do genetic testing and create these things. 0.84

00:51:42.900 So New Mexico is a place for cryogenics, eugenics, and transhumanism, which is exactly what he's trying to accomplish in bringing these kids in. 1.00

00:51:50.380 So there's so many things that people don't know about the life of Jeffrey Epstein that are weird.

00:51:54.420 They think, well, here's a guy.

00:51:55.900 He's dead.

00:51:56.520 We're glad he's dead.

00:51:57.480 But his legacy lives on in a big way because he was not doing these things by himself.

00:52:03.380 And the people he was doing them with are still very much alive.

00:52:06.460 And so that's kind of the angle we tell the story from.

00:52:08.880 And honestly, Pat and Stu, whenever we tell this story, the average American, they look at the memes or they say Epstein didn't kill himself, and that's all.

00:52:17.760 We have a good chuckle at that.

00:52:19.040 But most people can't even tell you where Epstein got his money from to begin with.

00:52:25.500 So there's a big story that's under the surface that a lot of people don't know.

00:52:29.480 We know about the guy who was convicted as a child predator, as a sex offender in the late 2000, 2006, 2007, 2008.

00:52:39.920 We know about that guy who really never served any time, never even reported to a parole officer.

00:52:44.740 But it's how he reinvented himself after that by associating with the Elon Musks, the Bill Gates, the Stephen Hawkins of the world.

00:52:55.660 These are the people that – and I'm not accusing them of any form of pedophilia, of course.

00:53:00.000 But it was how he tried to rebuild his influence, and ultimately the goal for him was immortality.

00:53:05.200 It's really – it's a weird story.

00:53:08.340 First of all, I don't even know how one would go about obtaining the seed from Nobel Prize winners.

00:53:14.260 I don't know.

00:53:15.380 Is there a website that you go to for that, Chad?

00:53:19.060 I don't even know how that occurs.

00:53:20.500 You know, my first thought is I wanted to question Barack Obama.

00:53:26.140 Maybe he's got a – it's funny because he really tried to rebuild his credibility after the arrest by these sort of like association.

00:53:38.580 He would try to find the – he donated tons of money to universities and centers that were on the cutting edge of science and tried to kind of play himself off as this scientist when he – I mean, he wasn't.

00:53:52.620 And he tried to do this thing where he just basically tried to associate himself back into the good graces of, you know, upstanding society.

00:54:02.160 It sort of worked for a long time.

00:54:04.300 It worked well, and that's interesting.

00:54:08.080 We go back to where we started from.

00:54:10.000 Here's a college dropout who's now associating himself, and they're actually identifying almost as a colleague in Harvard science schools.

00:54:19.620 You know, he donates $40 million to what he was kind of into, and not only that, they've never given a dime back.

00:54:31.800 MIT actually received a large donation.

00:54:34.360 They started giving some money back to disassociate themselves.

00:54:37.400 But you're talking about a guy who's basically his madam, if you will, his child procurer, his female procurer, Jelaine Maxwell, who is still at large.

00:54:49.320 We don't really know where she is.

00:54:50.800 You know, she was at Hillary Clinton's – I'm sorry, not Hillary.

00:54:54.820 She was at Chelsea Clinton's wedding.

00:54:56.800 She's been on three or four vacations with Chelsea Clinton.

00:55:01.720 This is a person who was highly associating, and it wasn't just about wealth.

00:55:06.360 It was about being able to have secrets.

00:55:09.040 His wealth was really not in money as much as it was in being able to buy people's secrets, and those are the secrets we still don't know.

00:55:15.480 So we're starting to see things get uncovered with Prince Andrew.

00:55:18.940 I find it somewhat humorous that now the queen is stepping in and won't let him have his 60th birthday party because of this.

00:55:26.820 And this is a guy who just last week on the BBC was talking about how much he doesn't like to pate.

00:55:34.020 So now, guess what?

00:55:35.300 Good thing you don't like to party because you're not getting one.

00:55:37.580 And so there's some – where there's smoke, there's fire, and there's things that are there, and that's what we've tried to do in these three episodes to say, look, yeah, he may be dead.

00:55:50.220 He may be on an island with a facelift.

00:55:52.120 We don't know, but the legacy of it and the danger of it still lives on.

00:55:56.220 So how did he make most of his money?

00:55:59.340 Where did that billion come from?

00:56:02.480 Well, you know, so first of all, what he did was he got into Bear Stearns.

00:56:07.080 He was a high school tutor.

00:56:09.420 He was having inappropriate relationships at the high school.

00:56:12.460 He was at the Danbury School, which is a very elite school in New York.

00:56:15.600 He was having inappropriate relationships with the students.

00:56:18.060 He was a terrible teacher.

00:56:19.020 He tried to make extra money on the side.

00:56:21.340 He gained the attention of someone named Lynn Keppel.

00:56:24.060 Her father was actually the CEO at the time of Bear Stearns.

00:56:28.140 He liked his moxies, so to speak. 1.00

00:56:30.700 He liked his hustle.

00:56:31.940 And so he was doing really, really well at Bear Stearns the first year and only year he was there.

00:56:38.000 And then he decided to resign, even though he was just killing it financially for them.

00:56:43.240 He resigned, saying he was going on to bigger and better opportunities.

00:56:46.580 And that's the first sign you see of his M.O., and that is he was taking Bear Stearns' money and using it to buy influence.

00:56:55.620 So he was giving people loans, in essence embezzling, but he wasn't keeping the money for himself.

00:57:01.480 He was buying influence with powerful people, and he started the J. Epstein Company.

00:57:05.960 He associated himself with numerous people like Wes Wexner – Les Wexner, I'm sorry – who owns, of course, things like The Limited and Bath & Body Works and Victoria's Secret.

00:57:17.260 And he – and Wexner would even – and this is just one example.

00:57:22.020 Wexner would turn all of his assets over to Epstein as a financial counselor, and Epstein would even replace people on their advisory board that were family members.

00:57:33.540 And he'd say, no, you don't need that person.

00:57:35.180 And then these multimillionaires would come to Epstein, and he would say, you have too much money.

00:57:38.900 It's too dangerous.

00:57:39.760 People are going to steal it from you, so let me manage it for you.

00:57:42.520 And so, in essence, he was stealing their money.

00:57:47.220 Wow.

00:57:48.040 This is the thing that – he winds up with like $460 million after being involved with the Hoffenberg Ponzi scheme, which is the world's biggest Ponzi scheme that we've ever known.

00:57:59.360 Hoffenberg, of course, goes to jail for 18 years.

00:58:04.640 Epstein doesn't see a day in jail.

00:58:06.760 And, of course, it was the New York City Municipal Court who's there.

00:58:10.980 Guess who appointed those – that court?

00:58:13.380 Of course, it was Bill Clinton, who was president at the time.

00:58:17.760 It's so – it's so weird.

00:58:19.460 You make such a great point on how he used – it wasn't about his money.

00:58:23.660 It was about the way that he – he sort of like was willing to cross lines like crazy in every part of his life but do it with a respectable face.

00:58:32.080 So, people could associate with this really rich guy who seemed really accomplished and smart, and no one would suspect that behind the scenes he was willing to cross all these lines.

00:58:42.580 I mean, you look at the stuff he did in Miami with the girls.

00:58:45.900 It's not just like he was hooking up with young girls.

00:58:49.060 The guy built a gigantic system to allow himself with recruitment, with how to import them, how to hide it, what to ask for.

00:58:58.400 They had a whole system.

00:58:59.340 I mean, even go to when he's in prison, and he's supposed to be in a cell and doesn't want to be in a cell.

00:59:06.300 So, he pays his way to have lawyers be there basically every minute he's awake so he's in meetings with lawyers, and he doesn't actually have to stay in the cell.

00:59:14.680 This is before his death.

00:59:16.780 I mean, he was a way – he was able to bend and break rules to create systems to allow otherwise respectable people to do things that are not respected.

00:59:26.940 Yeah, and you take someone like Bill Gates, who is on record of saying, you know, hey, he's a very interesting guy with very interesting ideas.

00:59:35.700 You know, when Stephen Hawking is hanging around, these guys, they weren't interested in his brain.

00:59:41.600 They were interested in his influence and his money in that regard of the things that he could get done with his charm.

00:59:49.600 And even when he was in prison before he died, there would be people who – other prisoners who would have $100 here and there that would just show up in their commissary account, and it was coming from Epstein.

01:00:00.900 So, even when he was in jail, he was buying influence and buying these favors.

01:00:04.600 The special is three nights, and you can watch all of it on demand.
