00:00:06.720 of the Glenn Beck program
00:00:07.920 my name is James C. Harris
00:00:10.620 sitting in for Glenn Beck
00:00:12.940 I am a radio talk show host
00:00:14.520 my show is called
00:00:15.980 The Conservative Circus
00:00:17.320 I am the ringmaster
00:00:18.920 and the big top is
00:00:20.500 News Talk 550 KFYI
00:00:22.300 out of Phoenix
00:00:23.320 you can listen Monday through Friday
00:00:25.520 4 to 7 p.m. AZ time
00:00:28.260 because our time doesn't change
00:00:30.560 yours does
00:00:31.260 and right after my show
00:00:33.400 is the Glenn Beck program
00:00:34.700 so this is perfect
00:00:36.580 and I am honored to once again
00:00:38.100 be filling in
00:00:38.820 and on Christmas
00:00:41.040 I hope that you had a fantastic Christmas
00:00:44.020 I hope that your Christmas
00:00:45.700 was filled with joy
00:00:46.860 I hope that your Christmas
00:00:48.640 was filled with family
00:00:50.860 and I hope that your Christmas
00:00:53.560 was not filled with media
00:00:56.020 I do believe that the media
00:00:58.460 is our enemy
00:01:00.700 we're going to talk about that
00:01:01.780 on today's program
00:01:03.880 we sing
00:01:05.520 oh come all ye faithful
00:01:07.180 we sing joy
00:01:08.600 to the world
00:01:09.960 and that's because
00:01:11.680 this is the time
00:01:12.400 where Christians
00:01:13.520 celebrate the birth
00:01:15.300 of Christ
00:01:16.300 and even as a child
00:01:18.460 Jesus was king
00:01:21.020 from the first breath
00:01:23.580 that he drew
00:01:24.500 he was worthy
00:01:25.860 to be worshipped
00:01:27.640 Jesus is 100% human
00:01:30.700 and we Christians believe
00:01:31.880 he's also 100% divine
00:01:33.680 Jesus' birth was so huge
00:01:36.820 it was so huge
00:01:38.080 of a miracle
00:01:39.460 that it had to be accompanied
00:01:42.200 you know
00:01:43.000 by a whole host of angels
00:01:45.260 what if the shepherds
00:01:49.200 were too busy
00:01:50.380 looking at their social media
00:01:52.280 on their phones
00:01:53.800 to have noticed
00:01:56.020 the heavenly host
00:01:57.140 oh we do that
00:01:58.000 we do that
00:01:59.700 I am a night hiker
00:02:01.980 to the chagrin
00:02:02.720 of my smoking hot wife
00:02:04.020 and my friends
00:02:04.980 my co-workers
00:02:05.780 my boss
00:02:06.280 I hike at night
00:02:07.560 to sometimes
00:02:08.160 I even hike at night
00:02:09.500 in my sandals
00:02:11.360 some would say barefoot
00:02:13.220 I love it
00:02:14.700 especially when there's
00:02:15.800 that full moon
00:02:16.620 and those stars
00:02:17.380 and it's quiet
00:02:19.180 and the shadows
00:02:20.500 and that's
00:02:22.780 pretty much
00:02:23.640 what was going on
00:02:24.560 with those shepherds
00:02:25.440 a couple of thousand years ago
00:02:27.420 but see
00:02:27.840 they weren't out
00:02:28.720 enjoying themselves
00:02:29.620 they were working
00:02:31.840 and their job
00:02:33.080 was to protect the sheep
00:02:34.600 protect the flock
00:02:35.840 from wolves
00:02:37.060 and there were shepherds
00:02:39.580 living out in the fields
00:02:40.580 nearby
00:02:40.900 keeping watch
00:02:42.340 over their flocks
00:02:43.540 at night
00:02:44.200 and out of
00:02:47.540 that darkness
00:02:48.620 and out of
00:02:49.620 that environment
00:02:51.020 boom
00:02:52.240 the skies lit up
00:02:55.740 I think one of the first things
00:02:57.520 the angel said
00:02:58.100 was fear not
00:02:58.640 well yeah
00:02:59.600 I would have been
00:03:00.860 yeah
00:03:01.240 oh lord
00:03:03.040 running
00:03:04.960 fall over
00:03:05.680 trip over the sheep
00:03:07.220 now fear not
00:03:08.400 for behold
00:03:09.300 I bring you
00:03:10.640 good tidings
00:03:11.440 of great joy
00:03:12.320 which shall be
00:03:13.160 for all the people
00:03:14.740 what a message
00:03:15.800 now if you're
00:03:18.400 up on your
00:03:19.460 Jewish tradition
00:03:20.840 if you're up
00:03:21.520 on your
00:03:22.260 bible study
00:03:23.060 you know that
00:03:23.980 the
00:03:24.380 the lord
00:03:26.380 had gone silent
00:03:27.200 god had gone silent
00:03:28.180 for over 400 years
00:03:29.220 they were waiting
00:03:31.600 for a messiah
00:03:32.300 but they didn't know
00:03:33.780 how this is going
00:03:34.340 to play out
00:03:34.900 this message
00:03:37.960 I believe
00:03:38.560 the christmas message
00:03:39.640 is so important
00:03:41.480 because
00:03:42.060 those shepherds
00:03:43.780 who are out
00:03:44.260 in the fields
00:03:44.800 those shepherds
00:03:45.560 who are doing
00:03:46.020 their job
00:03:46.560 they was probably
00:03:47.440 probably seen
00:03:48.340 as one of the lowest
00:03:49.080 jobs
00:03:49.740 of that
00:03:50.600 of that society
00:03:51.720 it's not something
00:03:53.540 that you would
00:03:54.020 aspire to
00:03:55.220 sometimes
00:03:58.380 we're in those
00:04:00.260 kind of positions
00:04:00.880 where we're
00:04:01.380 we're doing jobs
00:04:02.440 and we don't think
00:04:03.240 that it's
00:04:03.620 it's all that
00:04:04.500 important
00:04:04.980 we don't see
00:04:05.580 ourselves
00:04:05.980 as all that
00:04:06.500 special
00:04:06.900 and look
00:04:09.320 what happened
00:04:09.840 the heavens
00:04:12.380 opened up
00:04:13.180 and the angels
00:04:14.700 visited
00:04:16.000 the shepherds
00:04:17.620 they didn't
00:04:18.620 visit the king
00:04:19.460 they didn't
00:04:20.940 seek out
00:04:21.360 the priest
00:04:22.120 the angels
00:04:24.140 visited
00:04:24.580 the shepherds
00:04:25.480 those shepherds
00:04:28.320 probably got lonely
00:04:29.160 and often felt
00:04:30.060 like they were
00:04:30.660 forgotten
00:04:31.040 felt like
00:04:31.660 they were
00:04:32.540 nothing
00:04:32.900 but in the
00:04:34.540 midst of their
00:04:35.140 everyday
00:04:35.960 task
00:04:37.100 God sent
00:04:38.840 a company
00:04:39.240 of angels
00:04:39.780 to tell them
00:04:40.560 the greatest
00:04:41.360 news
00:04:41.900 mankind
00:04:42.460 has ever
00:04:43.640 heard
00:04:44.140 you see
00:04:44.460 I do
00:04:45.040 believe
00:04:45.620 that
00:04:47.820 God
00:04:48.380 is the
00:04:48.960 great
00:04:49.200 tactician
00:04:49.820 and I do
00:04:52.020 believe
00:04:52.380 that this
00:04:52.820 was an
00:04:53.420 invasion
00:04:54.040 I think
00:04:55.780 that
00:04:56.320 Jesus the
00:04:57.280 Christ
00:04:57.580 as a
00:04:58.120 baby
00:04:58.440 being born
00:04:59.180 from heaven
00:04:59.900 sent from
00:05:00.560 heaven
00:05:00.820 to earth
00:05:01.240 was an
00:05:01.540 invasion
00:05:01.980 his job
00:05:03.780 was ultimately
00:05:04.520 to take on
00:05:05.420 the sins
00:05:05.760 of the world
00:05:06.360 and be
00:05:07.420 sacrificed
00:05:08.080 for you
00:05:09.040 and me
00:05:09.460 and
00:05:11.460 Jesus
00:05:12.060 had
00:05:12.500 enemies
00:05:13.160 even
00:05:14.640 at the
00:05:15.380 at the
00:05:16.020 the rumor
00:05:16.880 of his
00:05:18.300 birth
00:05:18.720 you had
00:05:19.340 King
00:05:19.700 Herod
00:05:20.140 have
00:05:21.780 all of
00:05:22.820 the boys
00:05:23.720 of that
00:05:25.020 region
00:05:25.620 executed
00:05:26.860 it
00:05:27.240 think
00:05:28.900 about
00:05:29.160 that
00:05:29.540 the
00:05:31.320 news
00:05:31.840 that
00:05:32.020 a
00:05:32.180 king
00:05:32.460 was
00:05:32.680 going
00:05:32.880 to
00:05:33.020 be
00:05:33.180 born
00:05:33.600 led
00:05:34.500 to
00:05:34.880 a
00:05:35.740 man
00:05:36.240 to
00:05:36.620 have
00:05:36.960 to
00:05:37.340 slaughter
00:05:38.360 innocence
00:05:39.200 to
00:05:40.640 protect
00:05:41.000 his
00:05:41.320 power
00:05:41.780 God
00:05:46.100 sees
00:05:46.600 you
00:05:46.900 God
00:05:48.860 has
00:05:49.100 not
00:05:49.380 forgotten
00:05:49.880 us
00:05:50.320 it
00:05:52.140 may
00:05:52.340 seem
00:05:52.740 like
00:05:52.980 that
00:05:53.260 it
00:05:54.080 may
00:05:54.240 seem
00:05:54.580 like
00:05:54.800 heaven
00:05:55.320 is
00:05:55.540 silent
00:05:55.920 but
00:05:57.340 God
00:05:57.580 has
00:05:57.720 not
00:05:57.920 ignored
00:05:58.240 us
00:05:58.460 and
00:05:58.840 this
00:05:59.340 is
00:05:59.660 the
00:05:59.900 day
00:06:00.340 where
00:06:01.420 we
00:06:01.920 should
00:06:02.540 remember
00:06:03.260 that
00:06:03.740 we
00:06:04.320 should
00:06:04.840 rejoice
00:06:05.520 we
00:06:06.100 should
00:06:06.440 know
00:06:06.660 that
00:06:06.860 God
00:06:07.140 sees
00:06:07.440 us
00:06:07.580 through
00:06:07.740 our
00:06:07.940 tears
00:06:08.300 we
00:06:08.680 should
00:06:08.860 know
00:06:09.000 that
00:06:09.180 God
00:06:09.460 will
00:06:09.660 reward
00:06:10.220 our
00:06:10.860 faithfulness
00:06:11.860 we

00:06:14.840 our
00:06:15.000 God
00:06:15.320 is
00:06:16.040 a
00:06:16.320 God

00:06:17.120 suddenness
00:06:18.040 he'll
00:06:18.680 just
00:06:18.960 show
00:06:19.240 up
00:06:19.580 you
00:06:23.160 may
00:06:23.340 feel
00:06:23.840 like
00:06:24.820 you're
00:06:25.200 in
00:06:25.500 darkness
00:06:25.900 you
00:06:27.880 may
00:06:28.060 feel
00:06:28.580 like

00:06:29.420 have
00:06:29.840 out

00:06:31.880 light
00:06:32.300 faint
00:06:32.780 light
00:06:33.160 of

00:06:33.680 and

00:06:38.820 lesson
00:06:39.200 I

00:06:39.820 believe
00:06:40.560 today
00:06:41.060 is
00:06:41.560 that
00:06:41.840 God
00:06:42.240 has
00:06:42.520 an
00:06:42.680 army
00:06:43.040 of
00:06:43.280 angels
00:06:43.940 God
00:06:45.940 has
00:06:46.400 a
00:06:46.920 infinite

00:07:16.520 years

00:07:17.360 as
00:07:17.600 opposed

00:09:47.500 believe
00:09:47.940 that
00:09:48.240 scripture
00:09:49.100 should
00:09:50.220 be
00:09:50.680 shared
00:09:51.560 on
00:09:52.040 network
00:09:52.660 television

00:13:48.160 see
00:13:48.360 we've
00:13:48.860 let the
00:13:49.300 media
00:13:49.680 set the
00:13:50.280 standard
00:13:50.660 haven't
00:13:51.080 we
00:13:51.300 we've
00:13:51.680 let
00:13:51.840 the
00:13:52.040 media
00:13:52.520 bully
00:13:54.160 us

00:13:56.180 because
00:13:56.420 we may
00:13:56.820 offend
00:13:57.380 someone
00:13:57.940 Christmas
00:14:00.880 is
00:14:01.180 offensive
00:14:02.320 I think
00:14:04.640 we had
00:14:05.080 Justice
00:14:05.720 Gorsuch
00:14:06.220 the other
00:14:06.500 day
00:14:06.740 was on
00:14:07.280 Fox
00:14:07.560 News
00:14:07.780 and he
00:14:08.000 said
00:14:08.160 Merry
00:14:08.400 Christmas
00:14:08.780 and we
00:14:09.940 had the
00:14:10.260 left
00:14:10.460 come out
00:14:10.800 and say
00:14:11.120 that you
00:14:11.800 know
00:14:11.940 that's
00:14:12.360 cold
00:14:12.800 that's
00:14:13.640 that's
00:14:13.980 cold
00:14:14.200 for
00:14:14.360 white
00:14:14.580 supremacy
00:14:15.060 I'm
00:14:17.000 not
00:14:17.140 kidding
00:14:17.360 Merry
00:14:18.280 Christmas
00:14:18.580 is now
00:14:18.980 cold
00:14:19.460 and then
00:14:23.240 when you
00:14:23.760 turn to
00:14:24.340 Hollywood
00:14:25.140 Hollywood
00:14:27.960 sees
00:14:28.680 you know
00:14:29.240 Merry
00:14:29.620 Christmas
00:14:30.100 Hollywood
00:14:30.720 sees
00:14:31.300 Christianity
00:14:32.480 as
00:14:34.660 oppression
00:14:35.360 and so
00:14:37.600 they do
00:14:38.620 what they
00:14:39.120 do best
00:14:39.800 and they
00:14:40.320 do it
00:14:40.740 on their
00:14:41.200 vehicle
00:14:41.740 they do
00:14:42.340 it on
00:14:42.620 the vehicle
00:14:43.100 that they
00:14:43.640 know is
00:14:44.040 going to
00:14:44.440 resonate
00:14:45.180 across the
00:14:45.940 country
00:14:46.360 they go
00:14:47.480 to
00:14:47.800 entertainment
00:14:48.780 television
00:14:49.620 I'm not
00:14:52.920 a fan
00:14:53.280 of
00:14:53.440 television
00:14:53.960 I think
00:14:55.180 television
00:14:55.620 is an
00:14:56.160 amazing
00:14:57.160 amazing
00:14:58.500 invention
00:14:58.920 I think
00:14:59.380 that has
00:14:59.640 been
00:14:59.780 taken
00:15:00.060 over
00:15:00.420 I think
00:15:02.260 that
00:15:02.460 it's
00:15:03.120 been
00:15:03.300 subverted
00:15:03.860 I think
00:15:05.500 that some
00:15:05.780 of the
00:15:05.940 things
00:15:06.140 on it
00:15:06.380 are
00:15:06.500 downright
00:15:06.860 evil
00:15:07.160 on
00:15:08.720 Fox's
00:15:09.520 family
00:15:09.940 guy
00:15:10.420 you got
00:15:11.340 a shopping
00:15:11.900 mall
00:15:12.240 Santa
00:15:12.860 with the
00:15:14.780 high school
00:15:15.260 girl on
00:15:15.840 his lap
00:15:16.360 and he
00:15:16.900 brings
00:15:17.400 her to
00:15:18.440 sexual
00:15:22.280 pleasure
00:15:22.740 see I'm
00:15:25.900 even
00:15:26.080 hesitating
00:15:26.620 saying these
00:15:27.120 things on
00:15:27.480 the Glenn Beck
00:15:27.940 show my
00:15:28.500 goodness
00:15:29.040 after she
00:15:31.440 searches at
00:15:32.900 the at the
00:15:33.480 local mall
00:15:33.960 until she
00:15:34.320 finds her
00:15:34.840 her creepy
00:15:35.440 claws
00:15:35.840 Santa Claus
00:15:39.520 instructs her
00:15:40.040 that he
00:15:40.360 has a she
00:15:41.080 has now a
00:15:41.760 new sexual
00:15:42.280 discovery
00:15:42.840 and then he
00:15:44.880 tells her I
00:15:45.620 know what
00:15:46.160 each and
00:15:46.840 every person
00:15:47.600 needs for
00:15:48.060 Christmas
00:15:48.460 so we
00:15:49.640 just

00:18:02.440 and his best
00:18:03.800 friends in
00:18:04.280 Milwaukee were
00:18:04.840 all from
00:18:05.340 Mississippi even
00:18:06.040 though they
00:18:06.320 didn't know
00:18:06.740 each other
00:18:07.320 in Mississippi
00:18:08.200 they come to
00:18:09.240 know each
00:18:09.560 other in
00:18:10.240 Milwaukee
00:18:10.560 Wisconsin
00:18:11.420 they were
00:18:11.700 part of
00:18:12.040 that second
00:18:12.600 migration of
00:18:14.100 Americans of
00:18:14.920 African descent
00:18:15.700 going from
00:18:16.680 the south to
00:18:17.600 the north
00:18:18.120 because of
00:18:19.320 jobs
00:18:20.760 that three
00:18:22.160 letter word
00:18:22.620 as Joe
00:18:23.000 Biden said
00:18:23.600 jobs
00:18:24.440 anyway

00:18:29.500 and his
00:18:29.960 friends love
00:18:30.760 to go
00:18:31.100 fishing
00:18:31.580 and so

00:18:33.720 everything as
00:18:34.160 a community
00:18:34.660 they grew
00:18:36.860 vegetables

00:18:40.980 come in
00:18:41.360 to the house
00:18:41.900 with a big
00:18:42.460 burlap
00:18:43.180 bag of peas
00:18:44.500 and we would
00:18:44.920 have to like
00:18:45.360 shell them

00:18:46.660 stuff

00:18:47.440 always do
00:18:47.780 that
00:18:47.960 they would
00:18:48.200 go fishing
00:18:48.760 and they
00:18:49.560 would like
00:18:50.020 split up
00:18:50.900 the mess
00:18:51.380 of fish
00:18:51.920 that's what
00:18:52.440 they did
00:18:52.840 this time
00:18:54.540 they were
00:18:54.800 like about
00:18:55.160 an hour
00:18:55.600 45 minutes
00:18:56.500 north of
00:18:57.380 the big
00:18:57.880 city

00:19:49.260 then
00:19:50.500 my father
00:19:52.320 said something
00:19:52.940 that I
00:19:53.300 never ever
00:19:54.220 forgot
00:19:54.600 and I
00:19:55.020 first heard
00:19:55.380 the story
00:19:55.760 as a
00:19:56.020 teenager
00:19:56.420 he said

00:19:59.660 friend

00:20:04.120 even look
00:20:04.460 scared
00:20:04.820 he just
00:20:05.580 sees
00:20:05.980 three ninjas
00:20:07.460 getting out
00:20:07.960 of a car
00:20:08.520 he only
00:20:10.660 knows what
00:20:11.460 he's been
00:20:12.340 taught
00:20:12.980 he was
00:20:15.260 taught
00:20:15.720 this
00:20:16.240 and my
00:20:18.180 father's
00:20:18.700 friend
00:20:19.040 responded
00:20:20.040 okay
00:20:20.360 let's go
00:20:21.220 kick his
00:20:21.620 dad's
00:20:22.060 ass
00:20:22.300 and then
00:20:24.800 they all
00:20:25.140 laughed
00:20:25.500 about it
00:20:26.060 and they
00:20:27.040 went
00:20:27.260 fishing
00:20:27.820 I'm
00:20:29.800 hearing
00:20:30.100 about this
00:20:30.620 story
00:20:30.980 like 20
00:20:31.820 years down
00:20:32.380 the road
00:20:32.900 this took
00:20:35.100 place before
00:20:35.660 I was born
00:20:36.400 but what my
00:20:37.220 father said
00:20:38.000 this was
00:20:39.120 he was
00:20:39.740 taught
00:20:40.180 that child
00:20:41.060 didn't grow
00:20:42.000 up thinking
00:20:42.520 these things
00:20:43.300 we could
00:20:44.880 we could
00:20:44.900 even say
00:20:45.320 you know
00:20:45.760 as far
00:20:46.600 as television
00:20:47.240 which I
00:20:47.960 loath
00:20:48.360 he didn't
00:20:48.880 learn that
00:20:49.280 from television
00:20:50.100 this is
00:20:54.100 something that
00:20:54.520 was passed
00:20:54.980 on by the
00:20:55.980 families
00:20:56.540 and the
00:20:59.060 real shame
00:20:59.580 is this is
00:21:00.180 something that
00:21:00.560 is still
00:21:00.940 passed on
00:21:01.480 by the
00:21:01.800 families
00:21:02.140 but not
00:21:03.940 to the
00:21:04.560 same degree
00:21:05.420 if you
00:21:06.780 were to
00:21:07.060 ask me
00:21:07.720 is
00:21:08.780 America
00:21:09.520 racist
00:21:10.340 I'm about
00:21:12.140 to say
00:21:12.440 something very
00:21:12.900 controversial
00:21:13.460 I'm going
00:21:14.780 to upset
00:21:15.260 a lot of
00:21:15.640 people
00:21:15.920 my answer
00:21:17.800 would be
00:21:18.360 it depends
00:21:20.100 racism
00:21:22.900 does exist
00:21:24.160 primarily
00:21:25.900 on CNN
00:21:28.600 MSNBC
00:21:30.280 and the
00:21:30.980 Democrat
00:21:31.320 party
00:21:32.000 that's
00:21:32.640 where
00:21:32.780 you'll
00:21:33.040 find
00:21:33.360 it
00:21:33.660 if I'm
00:21:38.900 not looking
00:21:39.280 at television
00:21:39.880 I don't
00:21:41.660 know about
00:21:42.200 all of this
00:21:43.020 racial
00:21:43.600 so-called
00:21:44.340 angst
00:21:44.920 if I'm
00:21:45.460 not looking
00:21:46.060 at television
00:21:46.920 I don't
00:21:48.000 know about
00:21:48.400 all of this
00:21:49.060 anti-homophobic
00:21:50.300 whatever
00:21:50.700 when I look
00:21:53.020 at television
00:21:53.700 that's when
00:21:54.420 I see it
00:21:55.000 and then
00:21:55.480 I'm like
00:21:55.740 oh my
00:21:56.680 goodness
00:21:57.120 America
00:21:58.320 we never
00:21:59.660 got over
00:22:00.420 racism
00:22:01.100 when I
00:22:03.580 see the
00:22:03.860 Reverend Al
00:22:04.400 Sharpton
00:22:04.880 running to
00:22:05.660 some new
00:22:06.360 atrocity
00:22:07.120 it exists
00:22:13.880 on television
00:22:15.820 and it
00:22:16.820 exists
00:22:17.300 in the
00:22:17.960 minds
00:22:18.360 in the
00:22:18.740 hearts
00:22:19.020 of the
00:22:19.300 people
00:22:19.600 who still
00:22:20.280 want to
00:22:20.860 foment
00:22:21.700 it
00:22:22.020 our
00:22:25.160 culture
00:22:25.720 is not
00:22:26.580 like it
00:22:26.920 was
00:22:27.300 in the
00:22:27.860 1960s
00:22:29.000 the 1950s
00:22:30.180 the 1940s
00:22:31.620 Oprah Winfrey
00:22:34.920 is a very
00:22:35.440 rich woman
00:22:36.040 and she's
00:22:37.500 an American
00:22:37.980 of African
00:22:38.440 descent
00:22:38.840 and even
00:22:40.220 though we
00:22:40.880 have athletes
00:22:41.680 who are
00:22:42.120 disgruntled
00:22:42.780 and want to
00:22:43.380 take the
00:22:43.880 knee because
00:22:44.520 of the
00:22:44.840 oppression
00:22:45.280 in our
00:22:45.640 country
00:22:46.000 they're
00:22:46.420 millionaires
00:22:47.220 for the
00:22:47.660 love of
00:22:48.160 God
00:22:48.680 where
00:22:49.540 else
00:22:49.940 can you
00:22:51.480 find that
00:22:52.640 they have
00:22:54.640 the means
00:22:55.320 to fight
00:22:56.000 this
00:22:56.780 oppression
00:22:57.240 but when
00:22:57.900 they go
00:22:58.340 to look
00:22:58.740 for it
00:22:59.100 guess what
00:22:59.720 it's not
00:23:01.660 there
00:23:02.160 can we
00:23:04.620 find an
00:23:05.660 individual
00:23:06.180 who is
00:23:07.320 a bigot
00:23:07.900 oh of
00:23:08.760 course we
00:23:09.180 can
00:23:09.500 but now
00:23:11.660 we've made
00:23:12.200 up new
00:23:12.560 terms like
00:23:13.420 systemic
00:23:14.900 racism
00:23:15.420 institutional
00:23:16.400 racism
00:23:17.060 why because
00:23:17.940 it's not
00:23:18.300 up in
00:23:18.540 your face
00:23:18.940 anymore
00:23:19.320 because you
00:23:20.840 can pretty
00:23:21.200 much go
00:23:21.700 anywhere you
00:23:22.420 want to
00:23:23.080 because you
00:23:26.480 have full
00:23:27.060 participation
00:23:27.800 in this
00:23:29.320 culture in
00:23:30.140 this society
00:23:30.760 if you
00:23:31.400 want to
00:23:32.160 the problem
00:23:32.980 is a lot
00:23:33.880 of people
00:23:34.280 do not
00:23:35.060 want to
00:23:35.900 the problem
00:23:37.100 is people
00:23:38.560 are afraid
00:23:40.020 they're afraid
00:23:42.220 to embrace
00:23:43.380 the opportunity
00:23:44.300 because they
00:23:45.200 may have to
00:23:46.160 leave
00:23:46.940 behind the
00:23:47.940 very familiar
00:23:49.020 angst
00:23:49.700 it's a
00:23:50.140 cup of
00:23:50.600 sorrows
00:23:51.260 a cup
00:23:53.160 of sorrows
00:23:53.760 that taste
00:23:54.520 real good
00:23:55.320 and so
00:23:57.340 we feed
00:23:58.160 it to
00:23:59.420 each other
00:23:59.900 and we
00:24:00.140 feed it
00:24:00.740 to our
00:24:01.240 children
00:24:01.740 if that
00:24:06.600 kid were
00:24:07.060 to say
00:24:07.400 something like
00:24:07.880 that today
00:24:08.420 that same
00:24:10.580 incident would
00:24:11.080 happen
00:24:11.400 oh my gosh
00:24:12.400 I can't
00:24:14.600 even
00:24:14.860 I can't
00:24:15.600 even begin
00:24:16.100 to think
00:24:16.440 you know
00:24:16.820 what we
00:24:17.240 don't have
00:24:17.600 to imagine
00:24:18.040 too much
00:24:18.560 look at
00:24:19.920 what happened
00:24:20.260 to that
00:24:20.620 kid that
00:24:21.100 was wearing
00:24:21.640 the make
00:24:22.880 America great
00:24:23.540 again hat
00:24:24.040 the little
00:24:24.740 catholic kid
00:24:25.500 up there
00:24:25.980 in Washington
00:24:26.340 D.C.
00:24:27.880 when the
00:24:28.660 Native American
00:24:29.240 got all up
00:24:30.120 in his face
00:24:31.120 look at what
00:24:32.800 happened
00:24:33.300 look at how
00:24:35.440 he was treated
00:24:36.060 look at how
00:24:36.800 he was destroyed
00:24:37.780 by the media
00:24:39.340 and he didn't
00:24:40.240 do anything
00:24:41.160 wrong
00:24:41.900 it's almost
00:24:45.060 like it's
00:24:45.780 not the
00:24:46.500 content of
00:24:47.320 your character
00:24:48.000 today
00:24:50.320 it's the
00:24:51.860 color of
00:24:52.420 your baseball
00:24:53.000 cap
00:24:53.480 look how
00:24:55.860 hatred now
00:24:56.700 is being
00:24:57.120 defined
00:24:57.660 it's not
00:24:59.140 based on
00:24:59.660 skin color
00:25:00.240 unless
00:25:01.200 you are
00:25:03.440 an American
00:25:04.220 of European
00:25:05.540 descent
00:25:06.240 if that
00:25:08.660 is the
00:25:08.940 case
00:25:09.340 politically
00:25:10.320 it is
00:25:11.040 open season
00:25:11.700 on you
00:25:12.180 and who's
00:25:13.660 bringing the
00:25:14.180 fire
00:25:14.580 MSNBC
00:25:16.880 CNN
00:25:18.900 and the
00:25:20.620 Democrat
00:25:21.080 Party
00:25:21.780 now
00:25:24.260 yeah
00:25:25.800 it's actually
00:25:26.300 white folks
00:25:26.740 who should
00:25:27.300 be out
00:25:27.520 there saying
00:25:27.720 we shall
00:25:29.320 overcome

00:25:31.900 what they're
00:25:32.320 not wearing
00:25:32.920 it
00:25:33.120 they're not
00:25:33.640 wearing it
00:25:34.060 they're not
00:25:34.620 victims
00:25:35.240 we are
00:25:37.480 not
00:25:37.780 victims
00:25:38.360 even
00:25:39.980 though
00:25:40.520 the media
00:25:42.300 is trying
00:25:42.860 to bully
00:25:43.460 you into
00:25:44.000 it
00:25:44.100 I got a
00:25:44.420 great example
00:25:44.920 of that
00:25:45.140 we're gonna
00:25:45.360 have that
00:25:45.660 for you
00:25:45.920 coming up
00:25:46.300 next year

00:25:49.660 but let me
00:25:50.240 leave you
00:25:50.520 with this
00:25:50.840 fear not
00:25:51.500 fear not
00:25:53.860 because we
00:25:55.840 are in the
00:25:56.260 season
00:25:56.760 where we
00:25:58.980 have all
00:25:59.640 the power
00:26:00.200 that that
00:26:00.780 we need
00:26:01.220 we just
00:26:01.520 need to
00:26:01.780 embrace it
00:26:02.400 and speak
00:26:03.820 truth
00:26:04.380 to the
00:26:05.300 ignorance
00:26:05.920 my name
00:26:07.400 is James
00:26:07.920 T.
00:26:08.400 Harris
00:26:08.700 sitting in
00:26:10.580 for Glenn Beck
00:26:11.280 this
00:26:12.240 is the
00:26:13.300 Glenn Beck
00:26:13.660 program
00:26:14.220 my name
00:26:25.020 is James
00:26:25.440 T.
00:26:25.780 Harris
00:26:26.120 sitting in
00:26:26.960 for Glenn Beck
00:26:27.500 this is the
00:26:28.040 Glenn Beck
00:26:28.640 program
00:26:29.280 having a
00:26:30.020 conversation
00:26:30.460 about
00:26:30.800 identity
00:26:31.260 politics
00:26:32.000 identity
00:26:32.840 politics
00:26:33.360 is something
00:26:33.820 that the
00:26:34.220 Democrats
00:26:34.600 have absolutely
00:26:35.360 traded in
00:26:36.020 but I
00:26:36.280 think it
00:26:36.540 now is
00:26:36.840 coming back
00:26:37.280 to bite
00:26:37.620 them in
00:26:37.900 the assets
00:26:38.500 it used
00:26:41.340 to be
00:26:41.780 you know
00:26:42.180 if you're
00:26:42.420 a person
00:26:42.740 of color
00:26:43.140 a black
00:26:43.680 American
00:26:44.100 to call
00:26:44.360 African
00:26:45.000 American
00:26:45.640 and then
00:26:46.180 it was
00:26:46.520 the
00:26:46.740 Hispanic
00:26:47.400 American
00:26:47.940 and then
00:26:48.420 it was
00:26:49.000 part of
00:26:49.340 the
00:26:49.480 alphabet
00:26:49.820 people
00:26:50.320 the
00:26:50.680 LGBT
00:26:51.260 community
00:26:52.580 then
00:26:53.300 and then
00:26:53.880 we
00:26:54.160 sexual
00:26:54.780 preference
00:26:55.140 gender
00:26:55.700 identity
00:26:56.580 cross
00:26:58.760 dresser

00:27:01.600 these
00:27:01.780 things
00:27:02.060 are
00:27:02.200 supposed
00:27:02.500 to
00:27:02.680 be

00:27:04.980 and they
00:27:05.280 have
00:27:05.460 special
00:27:06.060 needs
00:27:06.740 and they
00:27:07.020 have
00:27:07.220 special
00:27:07.940 recommendations
00:27:08.860 and they
00:27:11.020 try to put
00:27:11.520 them all
00:27:11.880 together
00:27:12.260 corral them
00:27:13.100 into one

00:27:22.520 really
00:27:22.700 not
00:27:22.920 working
00:27:23.260 and yet
00:27:25.580 they don't
00:27:26.100 have
00:27:26.340 another

00:28:02.100 of
00:28:02.200 people
00:28:02.380 they got

00:28:17.100 Trump
00:28:17.520 he's
00:28:20.260 racist
00:28:20.700 now
00:28:21.120 and
00:28:22.640 they'll
00:28:23.000 drum
00:28:23.940 up
00:28:24.220 like
00:28:24.580 hoaxes
00:28:25.380 like
00:28:26.600 Charlotte
00:28:27.220 ville
00:28:27.520 I'm
00:28:27.880 not
00:28:28.100 I'm
00:28:28.520 not
00:28:28.740 diminishing
00:28:29.200 the fact
00:28:29.520 that someone
00:28:29.880 was killed
00:28:30.540 in that
00:28:31.240 conflict
00:28:32.120 but the way
00:28:33.280 the media
00:28:33.720 has spun
00:28:34.320 it is
00:28:34.540 just a
00:28:34.860 lie
00:28:35.160 oh there's
00:28:37.480 good people
00:28:38.060 on both
00:28:38.520 sides
00:28:38.820 it's a
00:28:39.120 lie
00:28:39.440 and anybody
00:28:41.000 can go
00:28:41.480 back and
00:28:41.880 look at
00:28:42.380 the
00:28:42.560 transcripts
00:28:44.340 whether we're
00:28:46.200 talking about
00:28:46.640 impeachment
00:28:47.140 whistleblower
00:28:48.220 why do you need
00:28:48.720 a whistleblower
00:28:49.260 he released
00:28:49.900 the transcripts
00:28:51.540 it's based
00:28:53.100 on lies
00:28:53.740 and the
00:28:56.000 only identity
00:28:56.840 really right
00:28:57.900 now
00:28:58.320 that
00:28:59.040 the left
00:29:00.720 is putting
00:29:01.040 all their
00:29:01.360 energy into
00:29:01.980 is just
00:29:02.640 being a
00:29:03.500 liberal
00:29:03.800 a leftist
00:29:04.440 to be
00:29:04.780 a part
00:29:05.380 of the
00:29:05.620 resistance
00:29:06.480 opposed
00:29:07.900 to this
00:29:09.720 president
00:29:10.160 and his
00:29:10.840 policies
00:29:11.340 that's why
00:29:11.740 we're seeing
00:29:12.200 all of this
00:29:12.680 craziness
00:29:13.240 when it comes
00:29:13.740 down to
00:29:14.200 the impeachment
00:29:15.240 and all
00:29:15.800 other kind
00:29:16.200 of stuff
00:29:16.420 and I'm
00:29:16.640 going to
00:29:16.720 talk about
00:29:17.020 that a
00:29:17.600 little bit
00:29:18.000 but not
00:29:18.380 too much
00:29:18.880 why
00:29:19.160 because
00:29:19.480 American
00:29:19.820 people
00:29:20.100 are tired
00:29:20.540 of it
00:29:20.880 I got
00:29:21.840 the news
00:29:22.200 for you
00:29:22.480 too
00:29:22.660 the American
00:29:23.420 people are
00:29:23.960 tired
00:29:24.780 of identity
00:29:26.680 politics
00:29:27.520 they're tired
00:29:29.280 of being
00:29:30.140 attacked
00:29:30.660 over something
00:29:31.560 they have
00:29:31.980 absolutely
00:29:32.780 nothing to
00:29:34.080 do with
00:29:34.520 you know
00:29:34.900 what
00:29:35.180 right after
00:29:37.860 the president
00:29:38.180 was elected
00:29:38.700 you had
00:29:39.880 Van Jones
00:29:40.540 on CNN
00:29:42.520 I'll never
00:29:44.160 forget it
00:29:44.940 that's because
00:29:45.640 I looked at
00:29:46.640 MSNBC
00:29:47.180 and CNN
00:29:48.240 election
00:29:48.920 night
00:29:49.160 after
00:29:49.420 President
00:29:54.180 Trump
00:29:54.960 became the
00:29:55.960 45th
00:29:56.480 president
00:29:56.740 of the
00:29:56.900 United
00:29:57.020 States
00:29:57.280 I watched
00:29:58.080 the meltdown
00:29:59.020 in
00:30:00.520 schadenfreude
00:30:01.100 I know
00:30:02.060 I was
00:30:02.880 getting
00:30:03.160 I was
00:30:03.560 gleeful
00:30:04.020 I know
00:30:04.480 that's not
00:30:04.920 right
00:30:05.260 that's not
00:30:05.640 right
00:30:06.020 I have
00:30:07.980 not repented
00:30:08.580 of that
00:30:08.900 yet
00:30:09.100 I still
00:30:09.480 go back
00:30:09.840 and I
00:30:10.060 look
00:30:10.440 at
00:30:10.780 election
00:30:11.240 tonight
00:30:11.800 it's so
00:30:15.240 good
00:30:15.560 but
00:30:16.000 but
00:30:16.860 in that
00:30:17.660 we get
00:30:18.660 a glimpse
00:30:19.260 at
00:30:19.760 what the
00:30:21.280 left is
00:30:21.660 really concerned
00:30:22.220 about
00:30:22.520 where they
00:30:23.460 have all
00:30:23.940 of their
00:30:24.300 you know
00:30:25.040 their energy
00:30:25.880 and Van
00:30:26.540 Jones
00:30:26.980 gave us
00:30:27.880 a snapshot
00:30:28.460 yeah
00:30:30.500 this was the
00:30:31.800 first real
00:30:32.340 outburst of
00:30:33.060 Trump derangement
00:30:33.920 syndrome
00:30:34.420 Van
00:30:35.320 Jones
00:30:35.720 said
00:30:36.060 that
00:30:36.320 Trump's
00:30:36.800 win was
00:30:37.300 a white
00:30:37.800 lash
00:30:38.260 against
00:30:38.880 the
00:30:39.480 first
00:30:39.920 black
00:30:40.440 president
00:30:41.020 a white
00:30:43.440 lash
00:30:44.040 well you know
00:30:45.800 Americans of
00:30:46.440 African descent
00:30:47.060 only make up
00:30:47.720 14%
00:30:48.700 of the
00:30:49.540 population
00:30:50.360 which means
00:30:52.080 in order for
00:30:53.180 Barack Obama
00:30:53.820 to be elected
00:30:54.580 white folks
00:30:55.220 had to vote
00:30:55.660 for him
00:30:56.080 okay
00:30:58.120 so
00:30:58.900 it was
00:30:59.380 nonsensical
00:31:00.100 it was an
00:31:00.580 emotional
00:31:00.940 moment
00:31:01.280 it was an
00:31:01.620 emotional
00:31:02.300 outburst
00:31:03.600 but it
00:31:04.160 was very
00:31:04.860 very
00:31:05.560 instructive
00:31:07.040 of what
00:31:08.040 the left
00:31:08.940 was headed
00:31:09.340 towards
00:31:09.640 in this
00:31:09.940 nation
00:31:10.300 and now
00:31:13.080 we've
00:31:13.860 gone from
00:31:14.660 the media
00:31:15.400 attacking
00:31:16.060 President
00:31:16.800 Trump
00:31:17.300 proper
00:31:17.920 to
00:31:18.520 attacking
00:31:19.140 you
00:31:19.840 and me
00:31:21.540 Trump
00:31:22.480 supporters
00:31:23.080 now
00:31:23.980 just so
00:31:24.680 you know
00:31:24.960 I've been
00:31:25.780 lumped in
00:31:26.360 with most
00:31:26.860 of you
00:31:27.200 I am
00:31:27.900 no longer
00:31:28.400 American
00:31:28.920 of African
00:31:29.400 descent
00:31:29.660 no I
00:31:30.320 am
00:31:30.740 as matter
00:31:31.180 of fact
00:31:31.560 I
00:31:31.760 in my
00:31:32.620 great
00:31:32.840 state
00:31:33.120 of Arizona
00:31:33.780 I was
00:31:34.480 dubbed
00:31:34.760 by the
00:31:35.180 left
00:31:35.420 a black
00:31:36.020 white
00:31:36.220 supremacist
00:31:36.820 early on
00:31:38.380 I think
00:31:38.980 I may
00:31:39.220 have been
00:31:39.380 one of
00:31:39.720 the first
00:31:40.180 black
00:31:41.560 white
00:31:41.880 supremacist
00:31:42.560 why
00:31:42.800 because
00:31:43.100 I
00:31:43.280 support
00:31:43.580 the
00:31:43.740 president
00:31:43.940 but
00:31:44.080 how
00:31:44.220 does
00:31:44.280 that
00:31:44.360 make
00:31:44.500 me
00:31:44.640 a
00:31:44.860 white
00:31:45.860 supremacist
00:31:46.420 that's
00:31:46.620 black
00:31:46.960 well
00:31:51.800 it
00:31:52.040 what do
00:31:53.280 you mean
00:31:53.380 it doesn't
00:31:54.060 have to
00:31:54.620 make sense
00:31:55.380 it's
00:31:56.900 emotional
00:31:57.700 it's
00:31:58.260 about
00:31:58.560 the
00:31:58.800 resistance
00:31:59.360 but
00:32:01.100 it is
00:32:02.480 real
00:32:02.880 and if
00:32:03.240 you watch
00:32:03.800 these
00:32:04.160 television
00:32:04.720 shows
00:32:05.080 you'll
00:32:05.440 see
00:32:05.680 that they
00:32:06.040 are
00:32:06.180 now
00:32:06.740 they're
00:32:09.900 now
00:32:10.380 attacking
00:32:11.560 you
00:32:13.040 it's
00:32:14.300 a
00:32:14.420 wonderful
00:32:14.680 progression
00:32:15.200 got an
00:32:16.660 example
00:32:17.080 of this
00:32:17.560 I believe
00:32:18.500 this was
00:32:18.840 on
00:32:19.100 MSNBC
00:32:20.640 they're
00:32:21.820 going
00:32:22.100 around
00:32:22.360 table
00:32:22.580 this is
00:32:22.880 on the
00:32:23.360 Joy
00:32:24.560 Reid
00:32:24.940 show
00:32:25.240 and they're
00:32:25.940 just
00:32:26.120 talking
00:32:26.400 to
00:32:26.620 these
00:32:26.820 pundits
00:32:27.160 and
00:32:27.500 what's
00:32:27.740 crazy
00:32:28.320 well
00:32:28.640 actually
00:32:28.900 I'll
00:32:29.380 let
00:32:29.560 you
00:32:29.680 hear
00:32:30.060 it
00:32:30.240 first
00:32:30.660 here
00:32:30.860 we
00:32:30.980 go
00:32:31.220 every
00:32:31.740 news
00:32:32.020 cycle
00:32:32.340 in
00:32:32.520 D.C.
00:32:33.000 starts
00:32:33.340 with a
00:32:33.660 simple
00:32:33.900 premise
00:32:34.320 what are
00:32:34.940 Republicans
00:32:35.420 angry about
00:32:36.180 like
00:32:36.800 30 years
00:32:37.760 every day
00:32:38.300 that's
00:32:38.620 what it
00:32:38.840 starts
00:32:39.120 and so
00:32:40.340 if they're
00:32:40.760 angry about
00:32:41.300 impeachment
00:32:41.680 then that's
00:32:42.320 a big deal
00:32:42.820 then they're
00:32:43.540 on the
00:32:43.780 offensive
00:32:44.160 Democrats
00:32:44.860 are always
00:32:45.600 on their
00:32:46.000 heels
00:32:46.260 Republicans
00:32:46.840 worship
00:32:47.420 the press
00:32:48.140 worships
00:32:49.120 Republican
00:32:49.560 hardball
00:32:50.100 and they
00:32:50.800 always see
00:32:51.440 Dems as
00:32:51.880 being out
00:32:52.240 maneuvered
00:32:52.660 the demographics
00:32:53.240 of the
00:32:53.560 media
00:32:53.800 that the
00:32:54.540 relatability
00:32:55.300 of Republicans
00:32:56.160 that they
00:32:56.940 seem more
00:32:57.680 relatable
00:32:58.020 or they seem
00:32:58.600 like middle
00:32:59.220 America
00:32:59.720 and so
00:33:00.480 the media
00:33:00.940 gravitates
00:33:01.740 toward
00:33:02.260 the Republican
00:33:03.240 base
00:33:03.620 first of all
00:33:04.400 it's dangerous
00:33:04.960 to even
00:33:05.360 present this
00:33:06.240 through the
00:33:06.860 lens of
00:33:07.500 politics
00:33:08.200 right
00:33:08.720 this is not
00:33:09.560 Republicans
00:33:10.140 versus
00:33:10.580 Democrats
00:33:10.980 this is
00:33:11.500 truth
00:33:11.820 versus
00:33:12.200 lies
00:33:12.620 this is
00:33:12.960 patriotism
00:33:13.660 versus
00:33:14.000 traitors
00:33:14.460 this obsession
00:33:14.980 with how
00:33:15.640 did Trump
00:33:16.160 you know
00:33:16.820 interviewing
00:33:17.280 people at
00:33:18.180 Trump rallies
00:33:18.600 to ask how
00:33:19.040 they thought
00:33:19.400 about impeachment
00:33:20.060 this obsession
00:33:21.640 and it goes
00:33:22.200 back to the
00:33:22.800 day after
00:33:23.320 he was
00:33:23.680 inaugurated
00:33:24.200 this obsession
00:33:24.860 with interviewing
00:33:25.520 white
00:33:26.080 midwestern
00:33:26.980 Trump
00:33:27.520 voters
00:33:28.200 and asking
00:33:28.820 them what
00:33:29.200 they think
00:33:29.580 about Trump
00:33:30.100 it is a
00:33:30.840 dangerous
00:33:31.280 it is a
00:33:31.820 racist
00:33:32.220 message
00:33:32.740 because the
00:33:33.100 message is
00:33:33.760 white
00:33:34.580 Republicans
00:33:35.220 are who
00:33:35.960 matter
00:33:36.360 in this
00:33:36.940 country
00:33:37.380 that's
00:33:41.680 crazy
00:33:42.220 they're now
00:33:44.160 pointing their
00:33:45.540 their media
00:33:46.580 guns at
00:33:47.220 you
00:33:47.520 you are the
00:33:48.300 problem
00:33:48.700 and white
00:33:50.120 conservatism
00:33:50.940 is the
00:33:51.420 problem
00:33:51.860 notice how
00:33:53.060 they have
00:33:53.400 to you
00:33:53.700 know
00:33:53.860 put that
00:33:54.360 racialize
00:33:56.020 it
00:33:56.200 white
00:33:57.000 conservatism
00:33:57.980 not
00:33:58.440 conservatism
00:33:59.300 you see
00:34:00.720 because if
00:34:01.380 you're a
00:34:01.720 conservative
00:34:02.220 I'm a
00:34:03.320 conservative
00:34:03.740 we share
00:34:04.920 ideas
00:34:05.880 but the
00:34:06.860 left can't
00:34:07.520 get over
00:34:08.000 their identity
00:34:08.800 politics
00:34:09.520 in order for
00:34:10.320 them to make
00:34:10.760 something bad
00:34:11.860 they say
00:34:13.120 it's white
00:34:14.320 you remember
00:34:16.000 the whole
00:34:16.300 Trayvon Martin
00:34:17.000 case
00:34:17.320 remember
00:34:17.640 Zimmerman
00:34:18.140 who happened
00:34:18.500 to be
00:34:18.760 Hispanic
00:34:19.240 no he
00:34:19.680 was a
00:34:20.140 white
00:34:21.060 Hispanic
00:34:21.900 now it's
00:34:23.700 white
00:34:24.380 conservatism
00:34:25.500 now it's
00:34:26.660 the white
00:34:27.500 Republican
00:34:28.140 Party
00:34:28.720 white
00:34:29.940 is the
00:34:30.400 bad
00:34:30.780 here
00:34:31.040 and what's
00:34:31.740 really crazy
00:34:32.720 is the
00:34:33.400 white
00:34:33.820 person
00:34:34.320 saying this
00:34:34.920 about
00:34:35.380 white
00:34:35.820 people
00:34:36.420 what would
00:34:39.260 happen if
00:34:39.600 it's
00:34:39.720 reversed
00:34:40.180 black
00:34:41.500 liberalism
00:34:42.200 black
00:34:44.000 liberalism
00:34:44.820 is the
00:34:45.400 bane
00:34:46.000 of this
00:34:46.540 society
00:34:47.420 if black
00:34:51.420 liberals
00:34:52.000 will just
00:34:52.620 stay home
00:34:53.360 then
00:34:54.920 white
00:34:56.200 conservatives
00:34:56.940 we don't
00:34:59.760 talk like
00:35:00.520 this
00:35:01.060 this is the

00:35:32.740 at
00:35:33.480 News Talk
00:35:34.020 550
00:35:34.700 KFYI
00:35:36.360 my show is
00:35:37.140 called the
00:35:37.440 conservative circus
00:35:38.120 I am the
00:35:39.900 ringmaster
00:35:41.020 and we've been
00:35:41.900 talking impeachment
00:35:43.440 up the wazoo
00:35:44.980 forever
00:35:45.700 the question is
00:35:46.740 did you get
00:35:48.780 what you wanted
00:35:49.280 for Christmas
00:35:49.800 did Nancy
00:35:51.920 Pelosi get
00:35:53.320 what she wanted
00:35:54.160 for Christmas
00:35:54.940 you know even
00:35:56.820 though this is
00:35:57.380 what I do I
00:35:57.960 have to tell
00:35:58.380 you when it
00:35:58.660 came to
00:35:58.920 impeachment I
00:35:59.600 was naive
00:36:00.120 it was my
00:36:01.560 son who was
00:36:02.460 in China at
00:36:03.300 the time who
00:36:04.140 said dad yeah
00:36:05.000 the Democrats
00:36:06.240 impeached
00:36:06.720 President Trump
00:36:07.520 but why
00:36:08.560 then I tried
00:36:09.300 to explain to
00:36:09.940 him well for
00:36:10.380 no reason they
00:36:11.140 just don't like
00:36:11.660 him but what
00:36:12.160 are they going
00:36:12.420 to do with
00:36:12.840 this I'm
00:36:13.980 like well now
00:36:14.580 it goes over
00:36:15.120 to the Senate
00:36:15.660 and then they
00:36:16.860 have a trial
00:36:17.520 and then they
00:36:18.560 call witnesses
00:36:19.240 and he goes
00:36:19.960 dad they're not
00:36:21.220 going to send
00:36:21.560 this over to
00:36:22.000 the Senate he's
00:36:22.480 in China
00:36:22.940 dad they're not
00:36:24.480 going to send
00:36:24.820 this over to
00:36:25.260 the Senate
00:36:25.500 why why
00:36:26.360 because he's
00:36:27.360 going he'll
00:36:28.120 get you know
00:36:28.980 he won't get
00:36:29.420 impeached he's
00:36:29.900 going to get
00:36:30.260 acquitted and
00:36:30.800 I'm like look
00:36:31.280 son this is the
00:36:32.380 way things are
00:36:32.860 done we have a
00:36:34.560 process here once
00:36:36.800 a president gets
00:36:37.420 impeached the
00:36:37.980 articles of
00:36:38.440 impeachment go
00:36:38.960 over to the
00:36:39.460 Senate he's
00:36:40.560 like dad why
00:36:41.280 would they do
00:36:42.000 that because
00:36:42.800 then it's all
00:36:43.820 lost now it's
00:36:45.180 all there's
00:36:45.900 nothing I
00:36:47.860 actually started
00:36:48.380 to get upset
00:36:48.760 with my number
00:36:49.280 two yeah my
00:36:50.400 number two I
00:36:53.640 said all right
00:36:54.020 son I'll look
00:36:54.660 into it he
00:37:00.000 was right
00:37:01.020 Nancy Pelosi
00:37:03.160 is sitting on
00:37:03.960 the articles
00:37:04.440 and I I am
00:37:05.760 not going to
00:37:06.620 do her
00:37:07.480 send these over
00:37:08.160 until I get
00:37:08.840 guarantees that
00:37:10.300 the Senate's
00:37:10.980 going to do
00:37:11.540 X Y and Z
00:37:12.360 you mean to
00:37:12.940 tell me Nancy
00:37:14.480 Pelosi was
00:37:15.660 looking for a
00:37:16.280 quid pro quo
00:37:17.180 wow well where
00:37:22.620 does it go from
00:37:24.360 here I don't
00:37:25.540 know because the
00:37:26.400 Democrats are
00:37:27.100 busy breaking the
00:37:28.020 rules but what I
00:37:30.920 do know is this
00:37:31.740 well anyway I
00:37:32.760 guess they're
00:37:33.140 trying to pressure
00:37:33.700 some senators to
00:37:34.520 cross over and I
00:37:35.780 think Murkowski
00:37:36.440 over there from
00:37:36.980 Alaska I think she's
00:37:38.240 talking crazy
00:37:38.860 overnight I don't
00:37:40.860 know if I like the
00:37:41.900 way Mitch
00:37:42.820 McCom shut shut it
00:37:44.540 lady stop it so
00:37:47.400 we'll see what
00:37:48.000 happens with the
00:37:49.600 with the Senate or
00:37:50.980 what comes next or
00:37:51.860 what if Nancy
00:37:53.240 Pelosi has any
00:37:54.040 leverage she
00:37:54.760 doesn't but we'll
00:37:56.220 have to watch this
00:37:57.020 the telephone number
00:37:58.580 is a triple eight
00:37:59.780 seven two seven
00:38:01.020 B E C K let's go
00:38:04.220 to is this a
00:38:05.540 Joseph Joseph in
00:38:07.320 Texas welcome to the
00:38:08.680 Glenn Beck program
00:38:09.800 good morning mr
00:38:11.480 Harris how are you
00:38:12.400 fantastic hey I
00:38:15.160 can tell by I've
00:38:15.980 been listening to you
00:38:16.580 for a couple hours I
00:38:17.400 usually I haven't
00:38:18.580 listened to Beck for a
00:38:19.380 couple weeks because I've
00:38:19.940 been traveling but my
00:38:20.740 point is this I can
00:38:22.520 tell you're a man of
00:38:23.280 faith in the way you
00:38:24.280 articulate yourself with
00:38:25.340 some of the phrases you
00:38:26.340 use I look at it like
00:38:27.720 this we all know us
00:38:29.080 common folk I'm just a
00:38:30.400 middle-class type of guy
00:38:31.520 working the oil field
00:38:32.620 etc etc I mean it
00:38:35.240 reminds me of Psalm 1
00:38:36.520 and Psalm 2 they're
00:38:38.080 trying to set a trap for
00:38:39.300 Donald Trump and all
00:38:40.360 us deplorables etc that
00:38:42.460 are conservatives and
00:38:43.460 believe in fiscal
00:38:44.320 responsibilities etc
00:38:45.720 they're gonna fall into
00:38:46.980 their own trap and fall
00:38:48.000 on their own sword it
00:38:49.540 just reminds me of those
00:38:50.660 that think evil is good
00:38:51.980 and good is evil they're
00:38:53.440 destroying themselves I
00:38:55.080 believe that they're so
00:38:55.980 confused because they
00:38:57.080 don't practice civility
00:38:58.820 they they're absolute
00:39:00.120 hypocrites in my opinion I
00:39:01.520 know I'm not the only one
00:39:02.520 in Texas that thinks this
00:39:03.900 way I appreciate
00:39:05.260 everything you guys do I
00:39:06.460 just thought that I just
00:39:08.040 pray for the
00:39:08.660 administration I don't
00:39:09.680 care what Donald Trump
00:39:10.640 did 10 years ago or
00:39:11.940 anything of that go ahead
00:39:13.480 sir we pray we pray for
00:39:15.600 on the conservative
00:39:16.800 circus the last segment
00:39:18.480 on Fridays we pray to
00:39:21.100 Jesus on behalf of the
00:39:23.420 president of the United
00:39:24.180 States his administration
00:39:25.800 his family who have been
00:39:27.760 under withering attack and
00:39:29.820 I'm like you and many
00:39:30.840 others people will try to
00:39:32.260 look at morality or
00:39:33.520 virtues or character and
00:39:35.120 all this kind of stuff I
00:39:36.180 don't know about all that
00:39:37.120 all I know is this I
00:39:38.720 think that President Trump
00:39:40.120 is not necessarily a man
00:39:41.420 after God but he's God's
00:39:42.860 man and he's been doing
00:39:44.020 things that have been
00:39:44.680 absolutely tremendous for
00:39:46.300 this country and there
00:39:47.140 have been millions of
00:39:48.460 people who have been
00:39:49.520 lifted out of poverty
00:39:51.020 because of his common
00:39:52.600 sense initiatives and
00:39:55.220 like you I agree I used
00:39:57.600 to have Psalms 1
00:39:58.600 memorized but it was a
00:39:59.980 blessed is the one who
00:40:01.260 does not walk in the step
00:40:02.500 with the wicked or stand in
00:40:04.040 the way of sinners or take
00:40:05.240 a seat in the company of
00:40:07.600 mockers but who delight
00:40:09.480 who delight is in the law
00:40:11.300 of the Lord and they
00:40:12.360 meditated on it day and
00:40:14.780 night well yeah and people
00:40:17.440 who do that Joseph they
00:40:19.180 look at all of the
00:40:19.980 buffoonery and the silly
00:40:21.640 silliness and the straight
00:40:23.300 out evil that's pouring out
00:40:25.020 of that TV set from our so

00:42:22.620 about
00:42:23.040 we talked about the Christmas we
00:42:28.040 talked about how how network
00:42:31.240 television you know the media is all
00:42:33.740 aligned against us it's all aligned
00:42:36.980 against Christianity is there a war but
00:42:40.500 a little over 50 years ago on the
00:42:42.440 Charlie Brown special we had Charles
00:42:44.980 Schultz who's the creator of the artist
00:42:47.020 said we got to make this about
00:42:48.420 something we have to make this mean
00:42:49.860 something so they made it about
00:42:51.120 Christmas and they talked about Luke
00:42:54.000 they quoted Luke the the announcement
00:42:57.540 and it still has an impact to this day
00:43:02.580 Roger in Pennsylvania is waiting to
00:43:08.060 get on the Glenn Beck program hey James
00:43:10.840 how you doing fantastic hey when you
00:43:14.860 were talking about about liberals
00:43:17.200 grouping people together it brought to
00:43:20.200 mind a story that I I experienced back
00:43:23.380 in 2016 during the safety pin era and
00:43:29.460 what happened was I yeah you remember
00:43:32.420 after Trump was elected all these liberal
00:43:36.160 people were walking around with safety
00:43:37.960 pins on their lapel so that people would
00:43:40.660 know so that people of color and of
00:43:43.700 different faiths would know that they
00:43:45.660 were safe to be around you know what I
00:43:50.160 have forgotten about that they were a
00:43:54.820 human safe spaces yeah okay yeah and
00:43:58.660 what wound up happening was at the time I
00:44:01.660 was taking an online online master's
00:44:05.500 course and what it was is one of these
00:44:08.180 courses that they actually had a physical
00:44:10.820 class going and you could zoom into it and
00:44:14.380 and so what happened was after the
00:44:17.000 election was the first session after the
00:44:18.940 election all these white liberal folks
00:44:22.620 were coming in with safety pins on well
00:44:25.340 the actual class was in Philadelphia so
00:44:29.280 there was a lot of African Americans who
00:44:31.720 were attending as well and what wound up
00:44:34.760 happening is somebody asked you know these
00:44:37.120 people what's this with the safety pins and
00:44:39.920 they explained to them that because of
00:44:42.280 Trump's election that these were to let
00:44:45.360 people of color know that they were safe
00:44:48.500 people to be around and the African Americans
00:44:52.860 in the class just were totally incensed
00:44:57.060 because they felt that they were being so
00:44:59.980 talked down to that we need we need to seek
00:45:03.980 out a person with a safety pin to feel safe
00:45:06.900 this is how liberals think of Americans of
00:45:10.900 African descent this is what that story
00:45:14.400 right there and thank you very much for
00:45:15.780 sharing it speaks volumes about the left and
00:45:20.680 how they think of Americans of African
00:45:23.000 descent a people of color in general it's
00:45:25.720 it's it's indicative of a wider issue it
00:45:31.840 goes even goes back to and thank you very
00:45:33.140 much for the call appreciate you it goes
00:45:36.300 back to an experience that I had another
00:45:39.420 story story time and as a high school
00:45:43.120 teacher my students demanded that I tell
00:45:45.760 them stories that's they were trying to
00:45:47.500 divert me away from giving the lesson I
00:45:49.580 was a high school teacher for 10 years and
00:45:51.960 then I was a speaker before I got into
00:45:53.320 radio but I would weave the lessons into
00:45:56.920 the stories that I was telling sort of the
00:45:59.800 the children you know who I fooled them into
00:46:02.520 learning and to be able to get into that
00:46:05.440 position though I had to swallow a big fat
00:46:08.060 pill and that pill was the concept that I
00:46:11.660 was an affirmative action hire because I was
00:46:15.940 the first American of African descent school
00:46:18.600 teacher in that school and the conversation that I had with the
00:46:24.580 superintendent of schools who hired me was pretty amazing and I want to share
00:46:30.200 that with you up next my name is James T Harris sitting in for for Mr.
00:46:36.820 Glenn Beck this is the Glenn Beck program
00:46:39.480 my name is James T Harris sitting in for Glenn Beck this is the Glenn Beck program when I was a young man I wanted to travel just loved traveling and all we would do is go back and forth to Mississippi but I would use my imagination I was like speed
00:46:40.780 my name is james c harris sitting in for glenn beck this is the glenn beck program
00:46:53.720 when i was a young man i wanted to travel just loved traveling and all we would do is go back
00:47:00.080 and forth to mississippi but i would use my imagination i was like speed racer in the mach
00:47:04.400 five and we were we were driving all over the world that's how i used my imagination well we
00:47:08.440 didn't have games we didn't have the you know the tv set in the back of the headrest i'm still bitter
00:47:13.140 about that but still so as i grew older i had the opportunity to to travel and i did i studied
00:47:20.060 overseas i studied in england for a year i went across europe eastern europe when it was still
00:47:27.040 eastern europe i just dated myself i remember when the wall came down it was a year after my my uh one
00:47:34.440 of my trips i had the opportunity to travel through india and uh the middle east by the time i got to
00:47:40.700 the middle east i took my sons along i was really into traveling it's just an amazing thing because
00:47:48.400 you learn by seeing you learn by doing and then you can go back and read about it or you can read
00:47:53.100 about it first and go back and do it my son has carried on a tradition he's he's a traveler in the
00:47:57.400 family uh right my baby girl wants to but she's baby girl and i can let her go why no babe girl no
00:48:04.360 my son's married so he doesn't have to worry about that he's not going anywhere actually they do
00:48:09.360 travel traveling this really really opened up a whole new world to me and when i was a high school
00:48:16.540 teacher i had done a decent amount of traveling so that opened the door for me to be a world history
00:48:23.280 teacher
00:48:24.020 i heard about this job when i was in chicago but the job was in wisconsin brown deer milwaukee and so
00:48:32.640 i overheard these administrators talking about an open position so i strategically went to the
00:48:40.200 place walked in and dropped an application it didn't take very long um as an american of african
00:48:48.560 descent as a high school teacher we're a commodity there's not too many of us so you're gonna try to
00:48:54.540 scoop my my uh transcripts were fantastic they had the travel experience on it they put me through a
00:49:01.720 test called the perceiver the perceiver test it's a long test and i apparently i did very very well
00:49:08.660 on it so the superintendent he didn't screw around at all he offered me a contract on the second meeting
00:49:15.660 i don't even think i filled out an application because
00:49:18.820 i don't know if i should have shared that but yeah so he hired me i was excited
00:49:25.860 and then he closed the office door he said i want to talk to you about something sit down
00:49:30.680 and he said um you're going to be up against something because people
00:49:35.740 are going to think that you got this job solely because you're black
00:49:39.520 i said why am i going to think that why would they think that
00:49:44.700 well because you're the only black teacher in the school now
00:49:48.140 welcome aboard
00:49:49.620 and i'm like well why are you telling me this he said i'm telling you this because you did not get
00:49:55.620 this job because you're black you got this job because you're qualified immensely qualified
00:50:02.340 surprisingly qualified so whenever you get that vibe where somebody is stupid enough to say that to
00:50:10.420 your face i just want you to understand that this is the culture
00:50:15.060 well i i uh thanked him for his candor
00:50:22.140 and it didn't take very long before that was exactly what i experienced
00:50:26.920 but that's not something i was new at because when i was student teaching
00:50:30.620 i taught in a little town called west bend and i was the first black person in the school period
00:50:36.220 it was two schools put together thousands of kids
00:50:39.500 and they were not shy while i was interviewing and you know the bell rang and they were passing
00:50:46.260 classes one kill kid yelling out hey ninja you know the n-word and the guy i was interviewing
00:50:55.120 with i know he heard it i knew he heard it but he didn't say anything
00:50:58.820 we continued to tour then we sat down for the formal interview part that he said you know what i got to
00:51:05.300 tell you something i just want you to know i heard that and if you would have told me before this that
00:51:10.200 i would ever hear anything like that here i wouldn't believe it now i have to face the fact that
00:51:14.500 we got a culture issue here i just want you to know that i heard it he didn't apologize
00:51:21.040 he didn't grovel he just acknowledged that it existed and in that moment i knew this is where i want
00:51:30.340 to work and i want that kid in my class because that's learned behavior
00:51:34.640 that half a year i was in that school was profound and i still hear from some of those students
00:51:44.600 today and that was that was a little while ago
00:51:48.800 that was a little while ago what i'm trying to tell you good people is this we live in a fantastic
00:51:58.180 country and yes we have our warts we have our we have our isms but it's only racist if you want it to be
00:52:07.840 and even when it is racist you have more control over the situation than you think just a little bit of
00:52:18.020 a diversion there because of a wonderful telephone call into the glenn beck program when we return
00:52:25.780 i just want to give you a reason why i think that we are not experiencing a coup
00:52:31.760 with this impeachment drive and now they're talking about doing more impeachment
00:52:37.260 uh the resistance movement not only among the left and the the media and uh half of the establishment
00:52:47.000 republican party what we're watching here is a cold civil war and things are not going to improve
00:53:00.000 until we recognize what we are up against and we engage it on that level
00:53:08.600 hey it's glenn and i want to tell you about something that you should either end your day
