The Glenn Beck Program - Best of The Program ｜ Guest： Jeff Brown ｜ 1⧸18⧸21

00:00:00.000 All right. On today's program, we do talk about history an awful lot. It is Martin Luther King Day. We also have a guest for the last hour of the broadcast, Jeff Brown, who is a technologist, really, really bright, has worked for some of the biggest high tech companies.

00:00:15.280 We talk about censorship. We talk about how do we beat this? How do we you know, they're coming after podcasts now. How do we stop this and remain free enough to talk to each other? All that and so much more on today's broadcast.

00:00:37.660 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:00:45.280 We will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, 0.82

00:01:07.240 will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, free at last, free at last.

00:01:15.700 Thank God Almighty, we are free at last.

00:01:18.300 Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice.

00:01:28.860 Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.

00:01:38.020 Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.

00:01:47.620 And I've seen the promised land.

00:01:51.180 I may not get there with you, but I want you to know the night that we as a people will get to the promised land.

00:02:02.100 Dr. Martin Luther King has been shot and wounded, possibly critically wounded, in Memphis, Tennessee this evening.

00:02:13.220 Dr. Martin Luther King, the apostle of nonviolence in the civil rights movement, has been shot to death in Memphis, Tennessee.

00:02:20.060 For centuries, man's freedom has been crushed, contained, or at best discouraged, and sometimes in subtle ways.

00:02:38.460 In the days of Solomon, he decried that man could learn too much, that one shouldn't dig too deeply nor read too often,

00:02:46.880 saying that too much reading led to the weariness of the flesh,

00:02:51.680 that the search for knowledge is where Adam and Eve went wrong,

00:02:55.900 thus proving that learning leads to man's downfall or his sin.

00:03:02.820 St. Paul, centuries later, said basically the same thing.

00:03:07.440 In 1500, Francis Bacon wrote to the king trying to convince him that man could never learn too much,

00:03:14.060 that knowledge could not somehow also contain the serpent, yet free thought continued to be squashed.

00:03:22.620 Immanuel Kant, the man who first described the Milky Way as a collection of suns in the fashion that we now know it,

00:03:30.120 wrote in 1760,

00:03:32.280 There are many things that I believe that I shall never say,

00:03:35.880 but I shall never say the things that I do not believe.

00:03:39.420 The courage to speak one's mind

00:03:43.700 In 1760, our most precious freedom, the freedom of thought, had not yet been born.

00:03:53.600 Yet, just a few years later, on the other side of the globe,

00:03:58.040 sat a man alone in a hotel room,

00:04:01.000 his wife dying in bed hundreds of miles away from him.

00:04:04.380 As he scratched words on paper,

00:04:07.760 We find these truths to be self-evident,

00:04:11.200 that all men are created equal,

00:04:14.000 with certain unalienable rights given to them by their creator,

00:04:18.840 among them life, liberty, and property.

00:04:23.080 It was later changed to

00:04:24.620 The pursuit of happiness,

00:04:26.940 to make sure the slave trade 0.99

00:04:28.620 would finally come to an end.

00:04:31.220 I'm not sure if we really understand the impact of those words.

00:04:37.260 Man has never been as free to think as man is now.

00:04:42.100 The Chinese dissidents didn't make a statue of liberty in Tiananmen Square out of happenstance.

00:04:48.320 Americans changed the world.

00:04:51.420 Our freedom of thought allowed men to discover electricity,

00:04:54.840 the light bulb,

00:04:55.660 the car,

00:04:56.140 the phone,

00:04:56.680 the motion picture,

00:04:57.500 the radio,

00:04:58.080 the television,

00:04:58.600 the computer,

00:05:00.000 to put a man on the moon.

00:05:01.580 Which of these men will be first to orbit the Earth?

00:05:05.040 I cannot tell you.

00:05:06.180 And a spacecraft on Mars.

00:05:08.060 Touchdown confirmed.

00:05:09.040 We're safe on Mars.

00:05:10.800 It was in the American century

00:05:12.780 that the theory of relativity was conceived,

00:05:15.840 leading Einstein to say,

00:05:17.580 The thing that strikes me about America

00:05:20.300 is the joyous, positive attitude to life.

00:05:24.500 The smile on the faces of the people

00:05:26.320 is one of the greatest assets of the American.

00:05:29.400 He's friendly,

00:05:30.540 self-confident,

00:05:31.400 optimistic,

00:05:32.360 and without envy.

00:05:34.540 The American lives more for his goals, 0.94

00:05:37.400 for the future.

00:05:39.740 Life for him is always becoming,

00:05:43.540 never being.

00:05:44.960 His emphasis is laid on the we 0.94

00:05:48.300 and never the I.

00:05:52.100 So today,

00:05:53.400 as we are free to celebrate,

00:05:55.800 relax,

00:05:56.660 think,

00:05:57.340 read,

00:05:57.800 say anything,

00:05:59.360 ask yourself this,

00:06:00.940 are we still more about the goals for the future?

00:06:04.900 Is life for us always about becoming

00:06:08.020 and never being?

00:06:10.060 And are we still part of the we

00:06:12.340 and not the I?

00:06:14.060 You know,

00:06:16.320 when Jefferson first wrote those words,

00:06:19.160 they were words of treason

00:06:20.980 and certain execution.

00:06:23.440 But today,

00:06:24.640 they are free to echo throughout the land

00:06:26.940 as words of the American spirit

00:06:29.340 and our hope

00:06:30.260 that we do hold these truths

00:06:33.320 to be self-evident,

00:06:34.660 that all men are created equal

00:06:37.260 and endowed by their creator

00:06:39.140 with certain inalienable rights,

00:06:41.560 and among them,

00:06:42.600 life,

00:06:43.420 liberty,

00:06:44.120 and the pursuit of happiness.

00:06:46.580 And in support of this declaration,

00:06:49.180 with firm reliance on the protection

00:06:51.840 of divine providence,

00:06:53.520 we mutually pledged to each other

00:06:56.300 our lives,

00:06:57.700 our fortunes,

00:06:59.380 and our sacred honor.

00:07:01.140 our founders changed the world

00:07:05.120 with those few words.

00:07:07.820 And over 200 years later,

00:07:09.960 a black preacher from the South,

00:07:13.120 Dr. Martin Luther King,

00:07:15.060 helped make sure that the promise of liberty

00:07:17.580 was real for all Americans.

00:07:20.160 Free at last.

00:07:23.320 Free at last.

00:07:24.660 Free at last.

00:07:26.000 Free at last.

00:07:27.400 Thank God Almighty.

00:07:28.760 Thank God Almighty.

00:07:30.960 We are free at last.

00:07:32.900 We are free at last.

00:07:35.900 Last year,

00:07:37.120 the left did the unthinkable.

00:07:38.800 They tried to convince us

00:07:40.120 that Martin Luther King

00:07:41.340 had approved the riots over the summer.

00:07:45.820 They took one of his quotes out of context.

00:07:48.180 Riots are the voice of the unheard,

00:07:50.480 said Martin Luther King.

00:07:52.020 And people used that over the summer

00:07:54.100 to justify the riots.

00:07:55.860 And they're completely,

00:07:57.520 I believe,

00:07:58.220 intentionally missing the point.

00:08:00.560 They're taking King's statement

00:08:02.200 out of context.

00:08:03.500 They're disingenuous.

00:08:04.780 Because he did not support riots.

00:08:07.860 He denounced them.

00:08:10.060 But he understood the psychology of rioting.

00:08:13.500 And more than anything else,

00:08:14.700 he wanted to give a voice

00:08:16.000 to the voiceless.

00:08:17.400 Here is the comment he made in 1966.

00:08:21.660 I think we've got to see

00:08:22.740 that a riot

00:08:23.560 is the language of the unheard.

00:08:27.560 And what is it that America has failed to hear?

00:08:30.440 It has failed to hear

00:08:31.680 that the economic plight

00:08:34.820 of the Negro poor

00:08:36.660 has worsened

00:08:37.560 over the last few years.

00:08:39.560 How many summers like this one

00:08:41.760 do you imagine that we can expect?

00:08:43.620 Well, I would say this.

00:08:46.060 We don't have long.

00:08:47.280 The mood of the Negro community now

00:08:49.400 is one of urgency.

00:08:52.640 One of saying that we aren't going to wait.

00:08:55.380 That we've got to have our freedom.

00:08:57.300 We've waited too long.

00:08:59.120 So that I would say

00:09:01.240 that every summer

00:09:02.780 we are going to have this kind of vigorous

00:09:06.400 protest.

00:09:07.040 My hope is

00:09:08.200 that it will be nonviolent.

00:09:10.040 I would hope that we can avoid riots

00:09:12.440 because riots are self-defeating

00:09:14.720 and socially destructive.

00:09:17.800 That's what Martin Luther King

00:09:19.520 actually said.

00:09:20.940 He's not saying riots are the solution.

00:09:22.660 He's saying they're a tragic symptom

00:09:24.420 of a bad society.

00:09:26.680 Now listen to this carefully

00:09:27.680 because this is all repeating itself.

00:09:29.820 And for those on the left,

00:09:31.220 they need to learn

00:09:32.540 from their own history.

00:09:34.260 They know this.

00:09:35.500 Why are they ignoring it?

00:09:36.840 He says it's a symptom of a society

00:09:39.840 where people feel voiceless

00:09:41.780 and alone.

00:09:45.360 Strategic violence and upheaval

00:09:47.260 is a part of America.

00:09:50.460 In some ways,

00:09:52.060 it's why we're an independent nation

00:09:54.480 free of tyranny.

00:09:55.980 But not really.

00:09:57.980 They didn't use violence.

00:09:59.440 1773, they say,

00:10:00.680 the Boston Tea Party.

00:10:01.620 That was not violent.

00:10:02.920 That was not violent.

00:10:04.440 In many cases,

00:10:05.480 they had the attention

00:10:07.980 and even compliance

00:10:10.300 of the ship's captain.

00:10:13.780 They went in.

00:10:14.880 They didn't kill anybody.

00:10:16.080 They didn't beat anybody up.

00:10:17.400 They dumped 342 chests

00:10:19.600 of British tea

00:10:20.440 into the Boston Harbor.

00:10:22.000 And it was an act

00:10:22.920 of political defiance

00:10:24.240 because if you want to piss off 0.94

00:10:26.240 an Englishman,

00:10:27.160 you take away his tea and crumpets.

00:10:28.760 Or the fact that they were

00:10:30.960 giving a massive tax on tea

00:10:34.240 and America couldn't do 1.00

00:10:35.420 its own tea.

00:10:36.740 So we don't want your tea.

00:10:39.220 We don't want your tea.

00:10:42.540 In our Constitution,

00:10:45.640 it says,

00:10:46.620 we the people,

00:10:47.480 in order to form

00:10:48.840 a more perfect nation,

00:10:51.240 to establish justice

00:10:53.720 and to ensure

00:10:55.140 domestic tranquility,

00:10:56.820 to provide for the common defense,

00:11:00.460 promote the general welfare,

00:11:02.640 and secure the blessings

00:11:04.060 of liberty to ourselves

00:11:05.920 and our posterity,

00:11:07.780 to establish this Constitution.

00:11:11.440 They grounded in the promise

00:11:13.300 of the words,

00:11:14.400 a well-regulated militia

00:11:16.680 being necessary

00:11:17.700 to secure a free state.

00:11:20.400 The right of the people

00:11:21.560 to keep and bear arms

00:11:22.480 shall not be infringed.

00:11:24.620 But needless violence

00:11:26.720 has no place

00:11:28.280 in civilized society.

00:11:31.200 So what is

00:11:31.880 needless violence?

00:11:35.220 Well, we're seeing

00:11:36.320 needless violence

00:11:37.520 that has caused

00:11:39.400 more needless violence.

00:11:40.860 What happened

00:11:41.480 over the summer

00:11:43.280 was kind of an endorsement

00:11:46.320 of needless violence.

00:11:50.020 And now everybody's upset

00:11:51.520 because some,

00:11:52.960 I believe,

00:11:54.540 radicals on the other side 0.98

00:11:56.400 decide they're going to

00:11:58.480 go in and march

00:11:59.740 on the Capitol.

00:12:05.480 King was heavily influenced

00:12:07.420 by Henry David Thoreau.

00:12:10.700 And I want to talk to you

00:12:12.180 about Thoreau

00:12:13.160 because I learned a lot

00:12:15.220 in my research

00:12:17.100 for this.

00:12:21.300 Two years after MLK said,

00:12:23.140 a riot is the language

00:12:24.200 of the unheard.

00:12:25.720 Two long years

00:12:27.440 on April 4th, 1968,

00:12:30.660 from the balcony

00:12:31.380 of a room

00:12:32.060 at the Lorraine Motel

00:12:33.460 in Memphis, Tennessee,

00:12:35.320 a white supremacist

00:12:36.820 aimed a Remington 760

00:12:39.060 at Martin Luther King

00:12:41.560 and fired.

00:12:43.160 That night,

00:12:45.400 Bobby Kennedy

00:12:46.200 gave one of the most

00:12:49.000 astonishing speeches

00:12:50.400 on the back

00:12:52.160 of a flatbed truck.

00:12:58.120 He told a largely

00:13:00.080 black audience

00:13:01.360 who did not know

00:13:02.960 about the killing

00:13:03.640 of Martin Luther King

00:13:04.580 this.

00:13:05.560 We will have

00:13:06.040 difficult times.

00:13:07.740 We've had difficult times

00:13:09.340 in the past,

00:13:11.000 and we will have

00:13:11.800 difficult times

00:13:12.540 in the future.

00:13:13.500 It is not the end

00:13:14.700 of violence.

00:13:16.180 It is not the end

00:13:17.020 of lawlessness,

00:13:18.580 and it's not the end

00:13:19.340 of disorder.

00:13:20.580 But the vast majority

00:13:21.980 of white people

00:13:22.900 and the vast majority

00:13:24.760 of black people

00:13:25.960 in this country

00:13:26.600 want to live together,

00:13:29.920 want to improve

00:13:31.300 the quality

00:13:31.860 of our life,

00:13:33.060 and want justice

00:13:34.460 for all human beings

00:13:35.920 that abide

00:13:36.760 in our land.

00:13:42.260 This is the best

00:13:43.140 of the Glenn Beck

00:13:43.660 program,

00:13:44.200 and we really

00:13:44.880 want to thank you

00:13:45.460 for listening.

00:13:45.960 When you look

00:13:54.360 at the left,

00:13:55.880 the left learned

00:13:57.000 nonviolence

00:13:58.000 from Martin Luther King,

00:13:59.120 but they're rejecting

00:14:00.800 Martin Luther King

00:14:02.020 now,

00:14:02.700 and this summer

00:14:03.500 was not nonviolent

00:14:04.700 at all.

00:14:06.280 Radical leftists,

00:14:07.620 radical Marxists

00:14:08.940 are really

00:14:09.940 who's running

00:14:10.600 a lot of this,

00:14:11.920 and the ends

00:14:12.940 justify the means,

00:14:14.160 and we can never

00:14:14.960 become those people.

00:14:17.100 But it's interesting

00:14:18.100 to me how the left

00:14:19.660 says they're for

00:14:20.720 all of these

00:14:21.380 great things,

00:14:22.260 but they're not,

00:14:24.400 and they run away

00:14:25.580 from things.

00:14:27.120 I want to talk to you

00:14:27.740 about a complicated guy,

00:14:29.200 really complicated.

00:14:31.660 You're probably

00:14:32.600 not going to,

00:14:33.340 you know,

00:14:33.620 agree with some

00:14:34.240 of his beliefs.

00:14:35.080 You certainly

00:14:35.960 will agree with others.

00:14:38.080 Some, you know,

00:14:38.960 some people will

00:14:39.540 like his ideas,

00:14:41.000 but whatever.

00:14:44.160 The political ambiguity

00:14:46.060 of this guy

00:14:47.040 is part of the reason

00:14:48.020 he's not

00:14:48.860 a household name.

00:14:50.400 Despite the fact

00:14:51.620 that he was

00:14:52.680 Martin Luther King's

00:14:53.800 closest friend

00:14:54.800 and confidant,

00:14:56.360 he literally

00:14:57.360 shaped King's

00:14:58.960 take on

00:14:59.540 civil disobedience.

00:15:01.720 Not only did he

00:15:02.560 organize and speak

00:15:04.380 at the March

00:15:05.240 on Washington,

00:15:06.340 but he also

00:15:07.200 played a crucial

00:15:08.400 role in the

00:15:09.320 formation of

00:15:10.260 I Have a Dream

00:15:11.160 speech.

00:15:11.680 He introduced

00:15:13.320 King.

00:15:16.340 He said

00:15:17.300 a social movement

00:15:19.360 has to be based

00:15:20.220 on the collective

00:15:20.840 needs of the people

00:15:21.720 at this time,

00:15:22.900 regardless of

00:15:23.600 color,

00:15:24.060 creed,

00:15:25.000 or race.

00:15:26.240 His name

00:15:27.400 was

00:15:28.500 Bayard

00:15:29.400 Ruslan. 0.57

00:15:31.040 He was black. 0.81

00:15:32.420 He was openly 0.98

00:15:33.440 gay. 0.93

00:15:34.800 He was a 0.97

00:15:35.380 Quaker.

00:15:36.640 He was a

00:15:37.260 lifelong socialist

00:15:38.460 and an

00:15:39.360 unabashed

00:15:40.020 pacifist.

00:15:40.980 he's one of

00:15:43.120 the reasons

00:15:43.720 why people

00:15:44.500 said,

00:15:44.880 you know,

00:15:45.180 Martin Luther King

00:15:45.880 was surrounded

00:15:46.520 by radicals.

00:15:47.520 He was pretty

00:15:47.960 radical,

00:15:48.360 but he was a

00:15:49.020 pacifist and he

00:15:50.000 was a Quaker

00:15:50.680 and he was a

00:15:52.820 staunch critic

00:15:54.360 of identity

00:15:55.700 politics and

00:15:56.740 reparations and

00:15:57.820 affirmative action.

00:15:59.700 Oh,

00:15:59.800 and he supported

00:16:00.580 Israel. 0.99

00:16:01.800 He's a black 1.00

00:16:02.860 guy, 0.98

00:16:03.400 a radical.

00:16:04.920 So half of the

00:16:06.640 country doesn't

00:16:07.260 know him because,

00:16:08.580 well,

00:16:08.840 he's a socialist.

00:16:09.840 And so nobody

00:16:11.400 wanted to talk

00:16:12.000 about him

00:16:12.660 because that

00:16:13.420 wasn't uniting

00:16:14.320 at all.

00:16:15.120 The other half

00:16:16.220 didn't want to

00:16:17.100 talk about him.

00:16:17.860 The left didn't

00:16:18.380 want to talk

00:16:18.800 about him because

00:16:19.300 he's against

00:16:20.080 identity politics.

00:16:22.540 He's again,

00:16:23.500 he'd be against

00:16:24.240 everything that is

00:16:25.120 happening today.

00:16:27.100 He's widely

00:16:28.240 considered by

00:16:29.400 scholars as the

00:16:30.600 second most

00:16:31.600 important figure

00:16:32.480 in the civil

00:16:33.280 rights movement

00:16:33.920 here in America

00:16:34.600 right after MLK.

00:16:35.720 a decade

00:16:37.220 before Rosa

00:16:38.860 Parks was

00:16:39.520 arrested.

00:16:41.680 He did it.

00:16:43.000 He stood up

00:16:44.620 in a bus.

00:16:46.280 He was arrested

00:16:47.440 24 times in

00:16:49.260 his life.

00:16:51.560 Two presidents

00:16:52.320 loved him.

00:16:55.400 President Barack

00:16:56.340 Obama gave

00:16:58.860 him the

00:16:59.480 posthumous

00:17:00.620 Medal of

00:17:01.180 Freedom and

00:17:03.400 Ronald Reagan.

00:17:04.240 Think of

00:17:06.120 that.

00:17:07.100 Ronald Reagan

00:17:07.940 praised him

00:17:08.680 for his

00:17:09.240 moral courage.

00:17:11.940 Now, a

00:17:13.260 large reason

00:17:14.160 why he's

00:17:14.700 excluded from

00:17:15.420 the history

00:17:15.800 books is

00:17:16.440 that he

00:17:16.840 criticized so

00:17:17.960 many of the

00:17:18.640 left's sacred

00:17:19.180 cows.

00:17:20.120 He disliked

00:17:20.800 the hostility

00:17:21.520 of identity

00:17:22.240 politics.

00:17:23.400 His rallying

00:17:24.180 cry was

00:17:24.760 humanity over

00:17:26.260 racial politics.

00:17:27.940 He opposed

00:17:28.640 reparations,

00:17:30.200 the quotas-based

00:17:31.240 affirmative action,

00:17:33.440 he argued

00:17:35.000 against

00:17:35.600 blackface 0.96

00:17:36.420 minstrel 0.85

00:17:37.000 shows.

00:17:38.100 He once

00:17:38.440 said,

00:17:39.160 you know

00:17:39.380 what,

00:17:40.460 let us be

00:17:42.140 enraged about

00:17:42.900 injustice,

00:17:44.360 but let's

00:17:45.480 not be

00:17:46.060 destroyed by

00:17:47.300 it.

00:17:49.320 Even in

00:17:50.460 the socialist

00:17:51.160 leanings,

00:17:52.180 he saw the

00:17:52.800 world not

00:17:53.280 through the

00:17:53.600 lens of

00:17:54.000 race,

00:17:54.540 but class.

00:17:55.900 He was,

00:17:56.480 after all,

00:17:58.460 a socialist.

00:17:58.980 he's most

00:18:00.780 likely responsible

00:18:01.820 for coining

00:18:02.540 the term

00:18:03.220 white liberal

00:18:04.260 syndrome.

00:18:05.020 Do you know

00:18:05.200 what that is?

00:18:06.340 That's when

00:18:07.060 white people 0.98

00:18:07.780 who are

00:18:08.120 liberals

00:18:08.760 condescend 0.99

00:18:10.680 to black 0.80

00:18:11.320 people,

00:18:11.780 and they

00:18:12.620 secretly

00:18:13.320 consider them

00:18:14.880 inferior,

00:18:16.380 and they

00:18:17.540 see themselves

00:18:18.420 as saviors.

00:18:19.820 You mean the

00:18:20.140 entire democratic

00:18:20.880 platform?

00:18:21.520 Is that what

00:18:21.800 you're referring

00:18:22.080 to?

00:18:22.220 Yeah,

00:18:22.360 pretty much.

00:18:22.740 Pretty much.

00:18:23.480 Pretty much.

00:18:24.260 He said,

00:18:25.120 if we desire

00:18:26.140 a society

00:18:26.760 without

00:18:27.120 discrimination,

00:18:27.800 then we

00:18:28.320 must not

00:18:28.920 discriminate

00:18:29.380 against anyone

00:18:30.480 in the process

00:18:31.260 of building

00:18:31.860 this society.

00:18:32.960 This is the

00:18:34.040 hypocrisy that

00:18:35.360 the right

00:18:35.900 feels right

00:18:36.780 now.

00:18:37.860 You can't

00:18:38.680 say violence

00:18:39.480 is okay all

00:18:40.460 summer long

00:18:41.100 and then say

00:18:41.820 violence is

00:18:42.520 wrong.

00:18:43.320 We've been

00:18:44.080 saying violence

00:18:44.740 is wrong

00:18:45.220 then and

00:18:45.920 violence is

00:18:46.500 wrong now.

00:18:48.600 You can't

00:18:49.580 say, hey,

00:18:50.240 we want to

00:18:50.760 be treated

00:18:51.400 fairly and

00:18:52.480 equitably,

00:18:53.240 and then

00:18:54.320 say, oh,

00:18:55.320 and by the

00:18:55.760 way, we're

00:18:56.440 not going to

00:18:57.180 we're not

00:18:57.780 going to give

00:18:58.220 any kind of

00:18:58.920 federal funds

00:18:59.700 to white

00:19:00.380 guys that

00:19:00.980 own business.

00:19:02.560 Well, wait a

00:19:03.400 minute.

00:19:03.680 Wait a minute.

00:19:04.000 Aren't we all

00:19:04.500 in this together?

00:19:07.180 Now, you

00:19:07.880 will see an

00:19:08.880 article or a

00:19:09.620 video or

00:19:10.160 something,

00:19:10.940 you know,

00:19:11.560 BuzzFeed,

00:19:12.320 Washington Post,

00:19:13.060 PBS, but

00:19:14.300 most of the

00:19:15.060 time you

00:19:16.540 will only see

00:19:17.320 him talk about

00:19:18.360 his leftist

00:19:19.420 beliefs and

00:19:20.340 causes, and

00:19:21.620 he's now being

00:19:22.400 reframed,

00:19:23.240 as an

00:19:23.800 LGBT hero.

00:19:28.140 You know, I

00:19:28.880 don't think he'd

00:19:29.420 have a problem

00:19:30.360 with that at

00:19:32.080 all, but

00:19:32.980 that's, why

00:19:34.280 is that the

00:19:34.920 only part of

00:19:35.580 him that

00:19:36.680 we're talking

00:19:37.120 about?

00:19:37.760 And that's a

00:19:38.560 rhetorical

00:19:38.980 question, I

00:19:39.540 know.

00:19:41.520 In the

00:19:42.240 late 1960s,

00:19:44.280 he veered

00:19:45.000 towards

00:19:45.540 conservatism.

00:19:47.500 New York

00:19:47.800 Times described

00:19:48.560 him in a

00:19:49.100 profile as,

00:19:50.000 quote, a

00:19:50.720 strategist

00:19:51.580 without a

00:19:52.240 movement.

00:19:53.320 He had a

00:19:54.200 movement because

00:19:54.800 he was a

00:19:56.000 movement.

00:19:57.840 It's just not

00:19:58.720 a movement that

00:19:59.400 fits neatly

00:20:00.100 into the

00:20:00.980 left versus

00:20:01.840 right dynamic.

00:20:04.980 He had been

00:20:05.820 branded Uncle

00:20:06.480 Tom, especially

00:20:08.020 when he spoke

00:20:08.640 out against

00:20:09.100 anti-Semitism,

00:20:10.480 or when he

00:20:12.600 spoke out because

00:20:13.160 he disagreed with

00:20:13.920 some of the

00:20:14.260 black activists.

00:20:15.180 but this guy 0.94

00:20:17.860 was an

00:20:18.140 amazing guy

00:20:19.320 that helped

00:20:20.520 change our

00:20:21.780 nation.

00:20:23.100 And on

00:20:23.300 Martin Luther

00:20:23.680 King Day,

00:20:24.340 it's worth

00:20:24.880 spending just

00:20:25.860 a few minutes

00:20:26.720 learning about

00:20:28.800 what he really

00:20:29.800 did and

00:20:30.640 believed.

00:20:32.040 I tell you,

00:20:32.920 this guy is

00:20:33.480 fascinating.

00:20:35.400 Bayard Rustin,

00:20:36.980 he wrote

00:20:37.960 poetry,

00:20:38.980 played football,

00:20:40.480 he was raised

00:20:41.060 by his

00:20:41.500 grandparents,

00:20:42.200 the ninth

00:20:43.300 of 12

00:20:44.520 children.

00:20:46.640 Can you

00:20:46.800 believe that?

00:20:48.240 He was a

00:20:49.100 member of the

00:20:49.520 NAACP and

00:20:50.940 W.E.B.

00:20:51.800 Du Bois and

00:20:52.780 James Weldon

00:20:53.560 Johnson were 0.97

00:20:54.320 frequent guests

00:20:55.700 at his

00:20:56.680 house.

00:20:58.000 And when he

00:20:58.760 was growing up,

00:20:59.580 these things all

00:21:00.440 made an impact.

00:21:01.280 He said later,

00:21:02.320 my activism did

00:21:03.500 not spring from

00:21:04.420 being black. 0.69

00:21:05.240 The racial 0.92

00:21:06.040 injustice that

00:21:06.980 was present in

00:21:08.340 the country during

00:21:09.020 my youth was a

00:21:10.200 challenge to my

00:21:10.940 belief in the

00:21:11.760 oneness of

00:21:13.320 the human

00:21:13.740 family.

00:21:14.840 This is what

00:21:15.460 the left is

00:21:16.200 leaving out

00:21:16.860 now, the

00:21:17.700 oneness of

00:21:19.140 the human

00:21:19.600 family.

00:21:20.280 They leave it

00:21:21.240 out in their

00:21:22.520 expectations for

00:21:23.820 COVID.

00:21:25.080 They just think

00:21:25.720 that they have

00:21:26.280 to force

00:21:26.900 everybody to

00:21:27.540 do it instead

00:21:28.160 of making a

00:21:28.920 good case to

00:21:29.600 the American

00:21:30.080 people and

00:21:31.160 the American

00:21:31.640 people will

00:21:32.240 do it because

00:21:33.160 we're not bad

00:21:34.360 people.

00:21:34.880 We don't want

00:21:35.260 to kill each

00:21:35.840 other. 0.99

00:21:36.680 Now, there are 0.95

00:21:37.420 some dopes out

00:21:38.220 there that might

00:21:38.840 do this or that,

00:21:39.700 but for the

00:21:40.560 most part, we

00:21:41.360 are one

00:21:41.980 family.

00:21:43.920 Throughout

00:21:44.360 college, he

00:21:45.540 was rested

00:21:45.940 over and

00:21:46.360 over again.

00:21:46.880 He did

00:21:47.120 sit-ins and

00:21:47.860 marches and

00:21:48.840 one for the

00:21:49.520 communists and

00:21:50.200 one for the

00:21:50.740 Quakers.

00:21:52.260 In 1941, he

00:21:53.520 met President

00:21:54.280 Roosevelt in

00:21:55.180 the Oval

00:21:55.620 Office.

00:21:58.320 Politely, yet

00:21:59.340 confidently, Ruskin

00:22:00.660 told Roosevelt

00:22:01.400 that if he

00:22:02.320 didn't desegregate

00:22:03.560 the military,

00:22:04.960 Ruskin would 1.00

00:22:05.580 lead a march

00:22:06.360 on the

00:22:06.840 Capitol.

00:22:07.960 And that's

00:22:08.400 when we got

00:22:08.840 Executive Order

00:22:09.660 8802, the

00:22:11.420 Fair Employment

00:22:12.260 Act, banning

00:22:12.840 discrimination in

00:22:13.700 the military.

00:22:14.320 By the way, we

00:22:15.000 didn't have

00:22:15.620 segregation in

00:22:17.860 the military

00:22:18.380 until Woodrow

00:22:20.380 Wilson.

00:22:21.340 Woodrow Wilson

00:22:22.260 re-segregated

00:22:24.320 the military, and

00:22:25.380 then it took

00:22:25.920 this guy,

00:22:26.720 meeting with

00:22:27.340 FDR, to

00:22:28.680 say, can

00:22:29.240 you please

00:22:30.520 stop this?

00:22:31.620 He also led

00:22:32.360 a movement to

00:22:32.880 desegregate

00:22:33.600 interstate bus

00:22:34.640 travel.

00:22:35.680 In 1942, he

00:22:36.720 got on a bus

00:22:37.340 in Louisville

00:22:37.900 headed for

00:22:38.360 Nashville.

00:22:39.220 He talked

00:22:40.060 about what

00:22:41.040 it was like.

00:22:41.680 He said, I

00:22:42.220 was going by

00:22:43.520 the second

00:22:43.980 seat to go

00:22:45.100 to the rear,

00:22:45.860 and a white

00:22:46.680 child reached

00:22:47.560 out for the

00:22:48.600 ring of my

00:22:49.960 necktie and

00:22:51.540 pulled it.

00:22:53.000 And his

00:22:53.880 mother said,

00:22:54.860 don't touch

00:22:55.740 an N-word.

00:22:58.520 He thought

00:22:59.620 about that

00:23:00.380 the whole

00:23:01.180 time.

00:23:02.840 And here

00:23:04.300 is this

00:23:04.780 child that

00:23:05.520 was innocent

00:23:06.200 and didn't

00:23:06.980 have any

00:23:07.520 of that

00:23:07.900 hatred and

00:23:09.340 was being

00:23:09.740 taught that

00:23:11.060 hatred and

00:23:12.520 probably was

00:23:13.460 taught that 0.97

00:23:14.540 blacks like 1.00

00:23:15.780 to sit in 0.99

00:23:16.340 the back

00:23:17.120 of the

00:23:17.360 bus.

00:23:18.860 And it

00:23:19.700 bothered him.

00:23:20.980 Just outside

00:23:21.680 of Nashville,

00:23:22.220 police stopped

00:23:22.840 the bus.

00:23:23.480 He was

00:23:23.800 arrested,

00:23:24.560 beaten,

00:23:25.180 and hauled

00:23:25.580 to the

00:23:25.780 police station,

00:23:26.600 but not

00:23:27.220 charged with

00:23:28.320 anything.

00:23:29.240 Why did

00:23:29.680 they stop

00:23:30.100 it?

00:23:30.280 Because he

00:23:31.900 sat right

00:23:32.300 behind the

00:23:32.800 white person.

00:23:33.320 He didn't

00:23:33.540 go to the

00:23:33.920 back of

00:23:34.220 the bus.

00:23:35.140 He wanted

00:23:35.800 that kid

00:23:36.200 to know,

00:23:36.780 we don't

00:23:37.400 like sitting

00:23:37.860 in the

00:23:38.100 back,

00:23:38.580 and we're

00:23:39.060 not different

00:23:39.560 than you.

00:23:41.060 This is

00:23:41.460 way,

00:23:42.140 way,

00:23:42.440 this is

00:23:42.800 1942.

00:23:45.900 This is

00:23:46.540 way before

00:23:47.540 anybody else.

00:23:49.840 He grew

00:23:50.880 to dislike

00:23:52.040 anti-war

00:23:53.260 activism,

00:23:54.460 especially the

00:23:55.540 kind in

00:23:56.020 Vietnam War.

00:23:57.000 He was

00:23:57.260 repulsed by

00:23:57.940 activists who

00:23:58.600 cheered for

00:23:59.340 America's

00:23:59.940 defeat.

00:24:01.260 He was

00:24:01.520 deeply

00:24:01.980 disturbed by

00:24:02.680 the prospect

00:24:03.300 of Vietnam's

00:24:04.140 people coming

00:24:04.760 under the

00:24:05.320 thumb of a

00:24:07.140 totalitarian

00:24:07.840 regime.

00:24:09.480 He said,

00:24:10.560 the Soviet

00:24:11.040 model,

00:24:11.540 the Chinese

00:24:12.080 model are

00:24:12.760 wrong.

00:24:13.980 He said,

00:24:14.660 the people

00:24:15.280 on my

00:24:16.220 side who

00:24:16.820 are willing

00:24:17.180 to work

00:24:17.540 with

00:24:17.720 communists

00:24:18.280 and Maoists

00:24:19.000 in the

00:24:19.300 name of

00:24:19.700 peace are

00:24:20.680 politically

00:24:21.220 naive at

00:24:22.300 best.

00:24:23.520 Where is

00:24:23.900 this guy

00:24:24.340 now?

00:24:26.020 Where is

00:24:26.820 this guy

00:24:27.200 now?

00:24:27.600 I

00:24:28.180 disagree

00:24:28.740 with a

00:24:29.500 lot of

00:24:30.060 what he

00:24:30.400 believes,

00:24:31.280 but a

00:24:32.120 lot of

00:24:32.440 what he

00:24:32.720 believes,

00:24:33.020 he still

00:24:33.620 believes in

00:24:34.280 America.

00:24:34.740 He had

00:24:35.280 reason not

00:24:35.900 to,

00:24:36.840 still believes

00:24:37.740 in America,

00:24:38.320 can really

00:24:39.280 look at the

00:24:40.160 situation and

00:24:41.060 go,

00:24:41.400 no,

00:24:41.640 these are

00:24:42.040 bad guys,

00:24:42.840 doesn't

00:24:43.160 believe in

00:24:43.700 violence,

00:24:44.800 believes in

00:24:45.320 freedom.

00:24:48.880 It's

00:24:49.500 amazing.

00:24:50.500 He was

00:24:57.040 the chief

00:24:57.480 organizer of

00:24:58.260 the March

00:24:58.660 on Washington

00:24:59.280 for Jobs

00:24:59.860 and Freedom,

00:25:01.140 and that's

00:25:01.500 the I

00:25:01.840 Have a

00:25:02.180 Dream

00:25:02.520 speech.

00:25:04.140 Shortly

00:25:04.700 after,

00:25:05.220 four young

00:25:05.640 black girls 0.74

00:25:06.220 were killed 0.97

00:25:06.720 in a

00:25:07.000 bombing at

00:25:07.420 the Baptist

00:25:07.780 Street

00:25:08.080 Church in

00:25:08.520 Birmingham,

00:25:09.660 a reminder

00:25:10.840 of what

00:25:12.000 happens when

00:25:13.240 you peacefully

00:25:13.820 speak out.

00:25:14.740 It's usually

00:25:15.200 met with

00:25:15.680 extreme

00:25:16.080 violence.

00:25:16.640 but his

00:25:19.120 I Have a

00:25:19.720 Dream

00:25:19.980 speech changed

00:25:21.300 things,

00:25:22.300 and the

00:25:23.220 bombing was

00:25:24.400 followed by

00:25:25.020 the Civil

00:25:25.400 Rights Act

00:25:25.980 of 1954.

00:25:27.920 He saw

00:25:28.620 the rise of

00:25:29.140 the Black

00:25:29.440 Power Movement,

00:25:30.760 not a fan.

00:25:32.280 He disliked

00:25:33.060 identity politics,

00:25:34.360 found it

00:25:34.720 counterintuitive,

00:25:35.800 divisive,

00:25:36.720 alienated.

00:25:37.960 Is anyone

00:25:38.820 on the

00:25:39.940 left

00:25:40.380 listening to

00:25:41.760 him?

00:25:44.300 It's

00:25:45.060 alienating,

00:25:46.640 and

00:25:47.300 divisive.

00:25:52.540 He came

00:25:53.420 to despise

00:25:54.100 communism,

00:25:54.760 and,

00:25:55.680 you know,

00:25:56.100 he became,

00:25:57.220 you know,

00:25:57.740 he's not a

00:25:59.220 guy that

00:25:59.900 the left

00:26:01.360 liked.

00:26:02.760 They scrubbed

00:26:03.740 him largely

00:26:04.340 from the

00:26:04.820 Civil Rights

00:26:05.300 Movement.

00:26:07.560 1987,

00:26:08.480 he was rushed

00:26:08.900 to the

00:26:09.160 emergency room

00:26:09.820 of Lenox Hill

00:26:10.440 Hospital,

00:26:11.000 complaining of

00:26:11.540 abdominal pain.

00:26:13.420 The next day,

00:26:14.420 he went into

00:26:14.760 cardiac arrest

00:26:15.760 and died.

00:26:17.640 It's only

00:26:18.660 in the last

00:26:19.240 15 years

00:26:20.140 since Obama

00:26:20.740 that they've

00:26:21.760 reintroduced him

00:26:22.560 to the

00:26:22.840 American people,

00:26:23.560 but they

00:26:24.900 reintroduced him

00:26:25.920 as just an

00:26:26.820 icon of

00:26:28.040 the LGBT

00:26:28.760 movement.

00:26:31.480 He was

00:26:32.520 never

00:26:32.880 active or

00:26:34.300 involved in

00:26:35.080 any way with

00:26:35.880 gay rights

00:26:36.340 activism until

00:26:37.660 the very end

00:26:39.020 of his

00:26:39.600 life.

00:26:40.880 And he

00:26:41.180 used to

00:26:41.480 say,

00:26:41.820 if both

00:26:42.100 sides hate

00:26:42.620 you,

00:26:42.900 you must

00:26:43.260 be doing

00:26:44.120 something

00:26:44.980 wrong.

00:26:46.280 But

00:26:46.840 nonviolent

00:26:48.480 tactics,

00:26:49.580 constitutional

00:26:50.260 means,

00:26:51.120 democratic

00:26:51.580 procedures,

00:26:52.220 and a

00:26:52.760 respect for

00:26:53.340 human

00:26:53.620 personality,

00:26:54.280 and a

00:26:54.980 belief of

00:26:55.560 all people

00:26:56.380 being one

00:26:57.200 is what I

00:26:58.560 stand for.

00:26:59.300 This is

00:27:03.240 the best

00:27:03.680 of the

00:27:03.940 Glenn Beck

00:27:04.340 program.

00:27:04.860 Jeff Brown

00:27:14.240 joins us.

00:27:15.400 Jeff is

00:27:16.420 the founder

00:27:17.780 and chief

00:27:18.700 investment

00:27:19.200 analyst for

00:27:19.960 Brownstone

00:27:20.900 Research.

00:27:22.340 He spent

00:27:22.880 25 years

00:27:24.000 as a

00:27:24.500 high-technology

00:27:25.260 executive.

00:27:26.220 He was

00:27:26.580 working at

00:27:27.040 the executive

00:27:27.540 level at

00:27:28.440 Qualcomm,

00:27:29.780 NXP,

00:27:30.480 Semiconductors,

00:27:31.320 Juniper Networks.

00:27:32.140 He's a

00:27:32.580 regular on the

00:27:33.160 program, and

00:27:33.720 I really

00:27:34.200 am fascinated

00:27:36.440 every time we

00:27:37.120 have him on

00:27:37.800 because he

00:27:39.060 knows a

00:27:39.480 little bit

00:27:39.820 about everything

00:27:40.500 and a lot

00:27:41.240 about most

00:27:41.940 when it

00:27:42.200 comes to

00:27:42.800 technology.

00:27:44.620 Jeff, I

00:27:45.280 want to push

00:27:45.820 you a little

00:27:46.220 bit on a

00:27:48.040 story that

00:27:48.500 came out,

00:27:49.340 and I don't

00:27:50.340 even know the

00:27:50.940 meaning of it,

00:27:52.280 and we don't

00:27:54.020 need to get

00:27:54.460 into the

00:27:54.920 explanation

00:27:56.360 because we're

00:27:57.140 not talking

00:27:57.760 about beam me

00:27:58.520 up Scotty,

00:27:59.860 but I believe

00:28:00.440 it's the

00:28:01.640 Fermilabs 1.00

00:28:02.520 that have

00:28:03.440 transported

00:28:06.240 digital

00:28:06.780 transportation

00:28:08.560 from

00:28:10.220 of

00:28:10.860 information,

00:28:12.040 digital

00:28:12.280 information

00:28:12.760 from one

00:28:13.340 place to

00:28:13.820 another,

00:28:14.940 no strings

00:28:15.600 attached,

00:28:16.680 well,

00:28:17.360 except for

00:28:17.820 the string

00:28:18.140 theory,

00:28:19.180 and

00:28:20.240 the article

00:28:22.280 that I read

00:28:23.000 said that

00:28:24.480 they believe

00:28:25.600 this proves

00:28:26.420 Einstein's

00:28:27.340 theory of

00:28:27.800 relativity

00:28:28.360 incorrect

00:28:29.720 because it

00:28:30.520 moves faster

00:28:31.540 than the

00:28:31.920 speed of

00:28:32.280 light.

00:28:34.060 Have you

00:28:35.420 seen this

00:28:35.940 story at

00:28:36.360 all or

00:28:36.800 know this

00:28:37.260 story at

00:28:37.620 all?

00:28:39.460 Yes, that

00:28:40.460 and many

00:28:41.280 others.

00:28:41.820 In fact,

00:28:43.320 this has

00:28:43.900 been proven

00:28:44.960 several times

00:28:46.080 over the

00:28:46.560 last five

00:28:48.340 years, and

00:28:48.880 believe it or

00:28:49.280 not, what

00:28:50.340 Fermilabs 1.00

00:28:51.300 did wasn't

00:28:52.560 even the

00:28:53.200 greatest

00:28:53.540 accomplishment.

00:28:56.100 Of course,

00:28:56.980 I loved

00:28:59.420 Einstein's

00:29:00.660 comments about

00:29:01.800 this.

00:29:02.080 He called

00:29:02.440 it spooky

00:29:03.000 action at a

00:29:03.980 distance, a

00:29:05.360 very scientific

00:29:06.040 way for him

00:29:07.900 to explain

00:29:08.720 something very

00:29:09.660 strange happening,

00:29:10.520 but what he was

00:29:11.200 really referring

00:29:11.780 to is this

00:29:13.220 concept of

00:29:14.320 quantum

00:29:14.860 entanglement, a

00:29:17.020 very complex

00:29:17.780 subject, but

00:29:19.640 the simple

00:29:20.240 way to

00:29:20.600 explain it

00:29:21.180 is that if

00:29:21.640 you have

00:29:22.200 two quantum

00:29:23.860 particles and

00:29:25.220 they're close

00:29:26.320 to each

00:29:26.720 other, they

00:29:28.740 can become

00:29:29.340 entangled with

00:29:30.260 one another.

00:29:31.240 They become

00:29:31.780 connected, and

00:29:33.540 then we can

00:29:34.100 separate these

00:29:35.000 two particles,

00:29:36.680 and if the

00:29:37.780 state of one

00:29:38.800 particle changes,

00:29:40.540 the state in

00:29:41.640 the entangled

00:29:42.260 particle also

00:29:43.540 changes

00:29:44.120 instantaneously at

00:29:45.520 a speed that's

00:29:46.240 faster than

00:29:47.540 that of light,

00:29:48.300 which is

00:29:48.620 precisely to

00:29:49.400 your point,

00:29:50.640 why this

00:29:51.560 theory of

00:29:52.020 relativity was

00:29:52.960 wrong on

00:29:53.980 this particular

00:29:55.040 subject.

00:29:56.480 So, what is

00:30:00.100 the application

00:30:01.520 in the future

00:30:02.500 for this?

00:30:04.960 Well, there

00:30:07.340 are obviously

00:30:09.060 some very

00:30:09.980 incredible

00:30:10.900 potential

00:30:12.540 applications.

00:30:13.820 If we wanted

00:30:14.800 to have

00:30:15.440 completely secure

00:30:16.780 communications

00:30:17.500 between two

00:30:18.360 physical

00:30:18.780 locations,

00:30:19.940 let's say in

00:30:20.500 the United

00:30:20.900 States,

00:30:21.480 maybe it's

00:30:21.980 the bunker

00:30:23.020 under the

00:30:23.460 White House

00:30:24.000 and some

00:30:24.540 secret

00:30:24.940 laboratory

00:30:25.540 under a

00:30:27.020 mountain,

00:30:27.720 we can have

00:30:29.120 a series of

00:30:29.780 entangled

00:30:30.260 particles where

00:30:32.520 we separate

00:30:33.420 them in these

00:30:34.080 two physical

00:30:34.660 locations and

00:30:36.060 can have

00:30:36.800 completely

00:30:37.440 secure,

00:30:39.200 impossible,

00:30:40.900 to hack

00:30:41.620 communications

00:30:42.440 between these

00:30:43.160 two locations

00:30:44.020 simply by

00:30:45.360 changing the

00:30:46.320 state of

00:30:47.520 particles in

00:30:48.700 one location,

00:30:49.380 which would

00:30:50.420 instantaneously

00:30:51.260 result in the

00:30:52.300 same state

00:30:53.320 change in the

00:30:53.860 other location.

00:30:55.260 And information

00:30:55.860 can be transmitted

00:30:56.740 that way,

00:30:57.340 just like we

00:30:58.100 transmit bits and

00:30:59.540 bytes over the

00:31:01.140 internet.

00:31:01.640 But there's no

00:31:02.360 wires or anything,

00:31:03.580 right?

00:31:04.700 There doesn't need

00:31:05.620 to be.

00:31:05.980 And in fact,

00:31:06.480 this is crazy

00:31:07.260 accomplishment that I

00:31:08.580 alluded to

00:31:09.440 actually took

00:31:10.340 place back in

00:31:10.980 2015.

00:31:12.060 And get this,

00:31:13.640 China was able 0.79

00:31:15.200 to demonstrate

00:31:15.960 this phenomenon

00:31:17.240 between a

00:31:19.720 satellite-based

00:31:20.660 location in

00:31:21.460 Tibet and a

00:31:23.300 satellite in

00:31:24.560 orbit 870

00:31:27.400 miles away,

00:31:29.680 1,400

00:31:30.100 kilometers.

00:31:33.440 So, last

00:31:35.040 question on

00:31:35.520 this.

00:31:35.980 So, is the

00:31:36.740 quantum theory

00:31:37.640 now quantum

00:31:38.360 fact?

00:31:40.340 Well, quantum

00:31:41.300 entanglement is

00:31:42.100 absolutely a

00:31:42.900 fact.

00:31:43.300 Quantum

00:31:43.500 teleportation is

00:31:44.560 absolutely a

00:31:45.340 fact.

00:31:45.660 They're both

00:31:46.140 proven.

00:31:48.500 Now, to be

00:31:49.640 fair, they're

00:31:50.300 very hard to

00:31:51.220 use at a

00:31:51.880 practical level

00:31:52.540 because very

00:31:53.780 special conditions

00:31:54.800 and environment

00:31:55.420 need to be

00:31:56.240 maintained to

00:31:57.520 enable this

00:31:58.220 phenomenon to

00:31:59.580 happen and to

00:32:00.240 send information.

00:32:02.080 But it

00:32:02.960 clearly works.

00:32:04.440 And over the

00:32:05.500 next few years,

00:32:06.480 believe me, this

00:32:07.200 is going to be

00:32:07.880 an area of

00:32:08.640 intense

00:32:09.160 development,

00:32:10.540 especially by

00:32:11.300 centralized

00:32:11.680 governments.

00:32:12.840 China and

00:32:13.900 the U.S.

00:32:14.420 in particular

00:32:15.040 will be leading

00:32:16.660 the way.

00:32:17.320 So, most

00:32:18.900 people are not

00:32:19.880 paying attention,

00:32:20.660 and I don't

00:32:20.980 know if you

00:32:21.280 remember Carl

00:32:22.020 Sagan's last 0.98

00:32:22.620 book, The

00:32:23.020 Demon-Haunted

00:32:23.540 World, but I

00:32:24.860 think these are

00:32:25.760 the days he was

00:32:26.560 predicting and

00:32:27.500 showing.

00:32:28.220 And there

00:32:28.760 seems to be

00:32:29.420 some really big

00:32:30.280 things that are

00:32:30.960 happening that

00:32:31.640 I'll read about

00:32:32.380 in a small

00:32:32.840 little article,

00:32:33.340 and I'll be

00:32:34.280 like, shouldn't

00:32:35.320 this be a

00:32:36.220 big deal?

00:32:36.940 Shouldn't

00:32:37.140 this be a

00:32:37.520 big deal?

00:32:38.540 What are the

00:32:39.260 things that are

00:32:39.880 on the horizon

00:32:40.780 that are game

00:32:42.020 changing, let's

00:32:43.200 say, in the

00:32:43.560 next year?

00:32:44.240 Is there

00:32:44.480 anything?

00:32:46.840 Yes.

00:32:47.740 By the way, I

00:32:48.580 share those

00:32:49.080 thoughts that

00:32:50.420 you have every

00:32:51.120 single day.

00:32:51.800 Right.

00:32:53.060 Because that's

00:32:54.060 all I do.

00:32:54.980 Yeah.

00:32:56.000 But next

00:32:57.180 year, literally

00:32:58.240 the next 12

00:32:58.960 months, we will

00:32:59.600 see the next

00:33:00.140 major breakthrough

00:33:00.820 in quantum

00:33:01.360 computing.

00:33:01.840 We're going

00:33:02.940 to see some

00:33:03.480 extraordinary

00:33:04.000 breakthroughs

00:33:04.860 from genetic

00:33:06.980 editing and

00:33:08.420 also messenger

00:33:09.520 RNA technologies

00:33:10.680 which are

00:33:12.580 related.

00:33:14.700 We're going

00:33:15.200 to see tremendous

00:33:16.060 breakthroughs in

00:33:16.800 artificial intelligence.

00:33:18.880 What most people

00:33:20.120 don't know is

00:33:20.820 that the custom

00:33:22.320 semiconductors,

00:33:23.660 the hardware,

00:33:25.180 have been

00:33:25.760 manufactured to

00:33:27.460 accelerate the

00:33:29.400 development on

00:33:30.080 the software

00:33:30.560 side.

00:33:31.060 So we're

00:33:31.960 going to see

00:33:32.280 some incredible

00:33:32.880 breakthroughs in

00:33:33.580 2021 on

00:33:34.700 natural language

00:33:35.980 processing and

00:33:37.160 also the use

00:33:38.300 of artificial

00:33:39.880 intelligence to

00:33:40.960 make new

00:33:41.800 discoveries.

00:33:42.640 A simple

00:33:43.000 example would

00:33:43.620 be new

00:33:44.540 molecular compounds

00:33:45.500 or new drug

00:33:46.140 discoveries by

00:33:47.740 using this

00:33:48.460 technology, this

00:33:49.420 hardware, and

00:33:49.860 this software.

00:33:53.100 Go ahead.

00:33:55.900 I was also

00:33:56.920 going to say

00:33:57.480 we'll see an

00:33:58.580 explosion of 5G

00:33:59.760 wireless technology

00:34:00.600 this year that

00:34:01.320 will impact all

00:34:02.180 of our lives as

00:34:03.020 the networks

00:34:03.500 continue to be

00:34:04.400 built out.

00:34:06.000 We'll see a

00:34:06.820 noticeable difference

00:34:07.760 in terms of the

00:34:08.660 quality of our

00:34:09.500 connections, our

00:34:12.500 internet connections,

00:34:13.420 the speed, there

00:34:14.160 won't be delays,

00:34:15.100 things will start to

00:34:15.920 feel nearly

00:34:17.080 instantaneous, and

00:34:19.120 that will touch all

00:34:20.160 aspects of our

00:34:21.120 lives really.

00:34:22.280 the last thing I

00:34:24.840 want to tell you,

00:34:25.380 I mean, I've got a

00:34:25.820 billion things, but

00:34:26.480 I'm out of time

00:34:27.320 after this.

00:34:28.800 I don't know if

00:34:29.660 you've been

00:34:29.920 following, because

00:34:31.160 it seems like such

00:34:32.260 a whack job

00:34:33.180 thing, but it's

00:34:35.200 not now.

00:34:38.300 If you've been

00:34:39.000 watching what's

00:34:39.800 been coming out of

00:34:40.500 the Pentagon over

00:34:41.300 the last few

00:34:42.220 years, last, like

00:34:43.360 three especially,

00:34:45.400 we are, the

00:34:46.220 Pentagon is now

00:34:47.640 verifying that we

00:34:48.580 are tracking

00:34:49.560 otherworldly

00:34:52.280 ships.

00:34:54.560 They are still

00:34:55.820 studying to see

00:34:56.680 if anybody has

00:34:57.600 this technology,

00:34:58.380 but the latest

00:34:59.340 revelation from

00:35:01.120 the Pentagon was

00:35:02.260 that they were

00:35:03.240 tracking some

00:35:04.860 sort of a ship

00:35:05.780 that came, was

00:35:07.200 flying super fast

00:35:08.700 and then stopped,

00:35:09.920 went down into

00:35:10.960 the ocean, under

00:35:12.120 the ocean, and

00:35:13.100 they were tracking

00:35:13.960 it under the

00:35:14.500 ocean at 400

00:35:15.560 knots.

00:35:16.200 Are you

00:35:19.960 following any of

00:35:20.880 this?

00:35:21.140 Because it seems

00:35:21.900 kind of important.

00:35:25.520 It's remarkable.

00:35:26.760 These stories that

00:35:27.360 are coming out are

00:35:28.300 remarkable from a

00:35:29.500 technology standpoint.

00:35:30.820 None of it

00:35:31.540 surprises me.

00:35:33.120 We've already

00:35:33.700 identified thousands

00:35:34.880 of habitable

00:35:36.640 exoplanets in

00:35:38.880 our own galaxy

00:35:39.860 capable of

00:35:40.840 supporting life.

00:35:42.300 So to me, it's

00:35:43.820 common sense to

00:35:44.540 think that other

00:35:45.120 life exists.

00:35:46.200 Has it reached

00:35:46.860 us yet?

00:35:47.540 You know, I'm

00:35:48.300 not sure.

00:35:48.960 I'm excited to

00:35:49.680 find out.

00:35:50.960 But there's a

00:35:51.940 big, very

00:35:52.640 interesting book

00:35:53.320 coming out in a

00:35:54.120 few days from

00:35:54.820 Avi Loeb, who's

00:35:55.680 the chair of

00:35:56.500 astronomy at

00:35:57.260 Harvard.

00:35:58.260 Yes.

00:35:58.820 And his book is

00:36:00.200 going to talk

00:36:00.820 about that

00:36:01.940 object, mysterious

00:36:02.820 object, Oumuamua,

00:36:06.080 that entered our

00:36:07.560 own solar system,

00:36:08.580 our inner solar

00:36:09.300 system, nonetheless.

00:36:11.180 And its speed

00:36:12.740 changed as it was

00:36:14.080 coming through the

00:36:14.840 solar system and

00:36:15.660 then accelerated when

00:36:16.800 it wanted to leave.

00:36:17.740 And they weren't

00:36:18.180 explainable by simple

00:36:19.920 orbital mechanics.

00:36:21.180 And so the theory is

00:36:22.280 that there was some

00:36:23.540 form of jet

00:36:24.320 propulsion there to

00:36:25.180 cause these changes

00:36:27.040 in speed and

00:36:27.840 attitude.

00:36:28.820 And so his whole

00:36:29.820 book, which I'm

00:36:30.520 excited to read,

00:36:31.520 will be out in a few

00:36:32.680 days and we'll see

00:36:33.660 what he has to say.

00:36:35.480 I preordered it

00:36:37.100 because I'm

00:36:37.480 fascinated by it as

00:36:38.660 well, because he's

00:36:40.720 saying there's

00:36:41.300 nothing natural that

00:36:43.380 travels the way that

00:36:44.740 thing traveled.

00:36:45.660 But I couldn't

00:36:46.700 understand if he

00:36:47.540 thought it was space

00:36:48.460 junk, something that

00:36:49.840 some other being or 0.94

00:36:52.000 civilization or

00:36:52.740 something had used

00:36:53.880 and had jettisoned,

00:36:55.680 or if it was

00:36:57.440 currently really

00:36:59.740 active and probing.

00:37:02.260 A surveillance

00:37:02.900 mechanism, correct.

00:37:04.280 Yeah.

00:37:05.480 Um, Jeff, thank you

00:37:06.980 so much.

00:37:07.540 I really, I really

00:37:08.560 appreciate it.

00:37:09.560 Um, I do want to

00:37:11.600 say, are there more

00:37:12.340 people in Silicon

00:37:13.380 Valley like you?

00:37:15.180 Cause I used to talk

00:37:16.200 to people at Facebook

00:37:17.500 and, and Google that

00:37:19.000 were, that were

00:37:20.300 inside and they were

00:37:21.520 like, we're

00:37:22.040 libertarians.

00:37:22.820 We don't believe in

00:37:23.940 the, we don't believe

00:37:25.160 in the left or the

00:37:26.640 right.

00:37:27.120 We're libertarians

00:37:28.420 and we'll never let

00:37:29.680 this stuff happen.

00:37:31.040 Are there still those

00:37:32.240 people there?

00:37:34.060 Absolutely.

00:37:34.580 They exist and they

00:37:35.920 exist in numbers,

00:37:37.160 especially in the

00:37:38.560 libertarian camp.

00:37:39.640 Uh, but, uh, right

00:37:41.260 now what I'm seeing is

00:37:42.420 that they have to, they

00:37:43.980 feel the need to signal

00:37:45.200 virtue, uh, to the

00:37:47.120 left.

00:37:47.440 And it's really

00:37:48.280 heartbreaking to, uh, to

00:37:49.720 see this happen, but

00:37:50.660 they, they exist.

00:37:51.580 And I hope they, I hope

00:37:52.980 they surface again.

00:37:54.140 Yeah, I do too.

00:37:55.080 Thank you so much, Jeff.

00:37:56.140 I appreciate it.

00:37:57.380 You're welcome.

00:37:57.980 Always good fun.

00:37:58.680 Um, the editor of the

00:38:00.540 bleeding edge.

00:38:01.580 Uh, and, uh, we thank

00:38:03.640 him for being on Jeff

00:38:04.500 Brown is his name.

00:38:05.340 Na na na na
