The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guest： Steve Deace ｜ 8⧸26⧸19

00:00:00.000 hey podcasters it's uh monday and we have a comrade update yes good news from the western

00:00:08.380 front comrades we'll get into that also steve dace joins us there's this great video i posted

00:00:15.020 up at glennbeck.com uh of michael glertner and a couple of other really really big respected

00:00:21.780 eggheads who were talking about darwinism and the days of darwinism it's over it's over now

00:00:27.960 will science recognize it also we began uh part one in a i think a four-part series this week

00:00:34.900 on the economy who broke the economy is america truly the best of the last best hope for mankind

00:00:42.800 boy you will not believe the stats on that and china's no pun intended trump card information

00:00:49.220 on the economy all this week uh that you really need to hear in the podcast if you listen to the

00:00:55.020 radio show or the podcast that will be uh our number two all this week don't miss it also trump

00:01:01.580 macron at the g7 summit the future of uh of of 5g also cows that are being raped not by men

00:01:14.360 but by other cows so finally somebody's talking about it and that's us on today's podcast

00:01:20.960 you're listening to the best of the glennbeck program

00:01:31.620 yes my dear comrades we have almost almost reached the fundamental transformation

00:01:43.120 of the united states oh sing it out sing it out

00:01:49.940 yes the climate crisis is the final icing on the cake yes american standards have changed

00:02:08.260 americans morals have changed their values have changed they now prefer security over freedom

00:02:15.200 yay

00:02:16.920 they now want free stuff from the state yay

00:02:26.760 oh comrades it's been a long tiresome road we thought this was all in our past back in 1990

00:02:36.320 but no no no no no no no the scientific community according to bernie sanders is telling us in no

00:02:44.240 uncertain terms that we have less than 11 years to transform our energy system away from fossil fuels

00:02:51.920 to energy efficiency and sustainable energy except they're not saying that but

00:02:56.920 in fact they're specifically saying stop saying that we're saying that you really need to be rounded up if we're going to leave this planet healthy for ourselves for our children for our grandchildren for future generations

00:03:12.220 bernie sanders says is rising temperatures and extreme weather create health emergencies drive land loss displacement destroy jobs threaten livelihoods we must guarantee health care housing and a good paying job to every american

00:03:28.860 especially to those who have been historically excluded from economic success thank you so he has a plan and here's his plan it's only going to cost us 16 trillion dollars

00:03:48.780 he says he says he's going to reach 100 percent renewable energy for electricity and transportation by no later than 23rd 30

00:04:02.940 wow wow 11 years 11 years nice uh 100 percent 100 percent renewable energy wow for transportation well it's already up to 7 percent how much tougher can it be

00:04:18.760 ending unemployment

00:04:22.940 he's going to end unemployment uh by 2030 because he's going to create 20 million jobs to solve the climate crisis crisis

00:04:36.700 these jobs will be good paying they'll be union jobs with strong benefits and safety standards in steel and

00:04:46.040 auto manufacturing auto manufacturing i really we're going to have cars still construction energy efficiency

00:04:54.000 and retrofitting coding server farms renewable power plants we will also create millions of jobs in sustainable agriculture

00:05:04.620 the government is going to get their hands into farming yay

00:05:11.300 it always works out so well when they start screwing around with the farms and the food

00:05:18.360 we'll also create millions of jobs in engineering reimagined and expanded civilian conservation corps

00:05:26.800 so we can go back to what fdr did and preserving our public lands

00:05:32.980 we'll also have direct investment at historic 16.3 trillion dollar public investment

00:05:39.660 it's the new deal and what they did in world war ii but with an explicit choice to include black

00:05:47.960 indigenous and other minority communities who were systematically excluded in the past

00:05:54.220 a just transition for workers this plan will prioritize the fossil fuel workers who have powered our economy for more than a century

00:06:04.920 and have too often been neglected by corporations and politicians

00:06:08.720 we will guarantee five years of all workers current salaries

00:06:13.960 housing assistance job training health care pension support and priority job placement for anyone displaced

00:06:25.460 as well as early retirement for support for those who choose or can no longer work

00:06:31.580 wow this is going to be a lot less than 16 trillion you said it yeah comrades declaring climate change a national emergency

00:06:42.020 we must take action to to ensure a habitable planet for ourselves for our children for our grandchildren

00:06:49.500 and we will do whatever it takes to defeat the threat of climate change after we declare a national emergency

00:06:58.440 yay

00:07:00.940 saving americans family family's money by weatherizing all american homes

00:07:08.900 lower the energy bills bills building affordable and high quality modern transportation

00:07:15.680 what could that be horses providing grants and trade-in programs for families and small businesses to purchase

00:07:24.520 high efficiency electric vehicles and rebuilding our if inefficient and crumbling infrastructure

00:07:30.740 including deploying universal affordable high-speed internet finally finally

00:07:38.300 yes you're going to be able you're all mothers are going to be able to have high speed

00:07:44.680 those who have been struggling because they can't surf the web like they like

00:07:49.980 supporting false small family farms by investing in ecologically regenerative and sustainable agriculture

00:07:58.420 thank god because you know you know what the farmers hate is anything that helps the soil

00:08:05.700 they have they don't want that they have not been doing right by the soil

00:08:10.100 you know they like to they like to plant something that does not regenerate right they like to plant something

00:08:16.300 so that it grows nothing for them the next year right they just want that one year's worth of crops 0.99

00:08:20.680 that's all they're asking for those bastards this plan will transfer all of our farms 1.00

00:08:26.940 to fight climate change and provide sustainable local foods and break the corporate stranglehold 0.98

00:08:35.760 on farmers and ranchers you know there's nobody that hates corporate farming as much as i do

00:08:41.120 and i mean that sincerely but it did feed an awful lot of people just billions so only billions let's make sure we

00:08:51.720 just get rid of all those corporate farms in 10 years wow what's the worst that could happen

00:08:58.400 justice for frontline communities especially under resource groups communities of colors native americans

00:09:06.680 people with disabilities children the elderly to recover from and repair for climate impacts

00:09:12.160 including through a 40 billion dollar climate justice justice resiliency fund

00:09:18.120 and providing those frontline and fence line communities just a just transition

00:09:23.800 including real jobs resilient infrastructure and economic development

00:09:28.340 bernie sanders also wants to commit to reducing emissions throughout the world

00:09:33.760 so it's not just going to be here we're going to donate 200 billion dollars to the green climate fund

00:09:41.440 oh good yeah finally finally finally we will meet and exceed our fair share of global emissions reductions

00:09:48.080 make we'll make massive investments in research and development expand the climate justice movement

00:09:54.280 invest in con in conservation in all public and private lands and the good news here

00:10:01.780 it will all pay for itself in this no longer free market in just over 15 years

00:10:11.160 comrades we have made it

00:10:16.520 holy cow wow wow we'll get into that and uh what all of that means coming up in uh just a second

00:10:29.180 also hey don't worry about the economy don't worry about it nothing to see here we'll talk about that

00:10:36.580 coming up in a second how's your gut feel on the economy still or pat uh you know i i think we're

00:10:44.360 teetering on the edge do you you know what's really weird is um you know how i've always had the

00:10:51.760 promptings of uh i've had that kind of feeling yeah uh i don't right now but here's what i do have

00:11:01.300 which i think is more frightening may not be to you but it is to me it's are you optimistic right

00:11:07.420 now because when that happens it usually means trouble uh no i'm not here's what i here's what i am

00:11:13.200 um you already know what to do prepare i can't tell you anymore yeah i just i get this feeling of

00:11:24.400 last call and no hype no hyperbole no you know no panic if you're not going to prepare

00:11:35.240 it's going to be too late soon if you haven't battened down the hat i just everything in me is

00:11:42.580 like pay off anything you can get out of anything that you can pay your credit card debt get just

00:11:50.800 don't spend money don't spend money don't spend money and make sure that you're prepared in all

00:11:57.280 things uh do what you're supposed to do uh that to me is more disturbing um because it just seems

00:12:07.880 uh final i guess maybe you know it's kind of like you and your mom was like you gotta you gotta get

00:12:17.000 this stuff done because school's gonna start you gotta get this stuff done you gotta get this stuff

00:12:20.840 done and you messed around and then your mom just looks at you you know the night before and you're

00:12:25.460 like i didn't get all that done and she's like well told you told you it's too late now yeah uh you

00:12:32.220 might want to really pay attention i'm going to give you uh five monologues today explaining the

00:12:38.280 economy not today over the week then we're going to do it in hour two every day and it will explain

00:12:45.200 what's really happening today i want to tell you something that we told you before but now it matters

00:12:54.060 we told you that china was doing a few different things about six months ago and we said this is

00:13:02.080 going to be trouble down the road well the road is now at trouble and i'll explain what's really

00:13:09.760 going on something that no one in the press is talking about and you need to understand it that's

00:13:16.460 segment one today in hour number two and we'll do it in hour number two a different part of the

00:13:22.320 economy that you need to understand uh every day this week in the top of hour two

00:13:27.400 the best of the glenn beck program

00:13:31.800 hey it's glenn and if you like what you hear on the program you should check out pat gray unleashed

00:13:43.380 his podcast is available wherever you download your favorite podcast so over the weekend i watched

00:13:49.100 something from the hoover institute it was about an hour-long dialogue between a uh a biologist

00:13:57.580 a world-renowned biologist a world-renowned philosopher and david galertner uh from yale

00:14:03.760 university who was a world-renowned mathematician and the subject was darwinism for suckers uh and 0.57

00:14:12.480 um galertner is the driving force behind this uh at least this part of the the news cycle on this

00:14:19.440 that nobody is paying attention but he he was a fan of darwin and said i liked it it was elegantly

00:14:27.860 simple i thought it was a good way to explain it it was a good theory there were parts of it that

00:14:34.720 didn't work um but i'm sorry to see this go but we have to admit this is not what happened darwinism

00:14:43.200 is done because of science and mathematics and anyone who tells you differently is a zealot and lying

00:14:53.000 they're not honest well you can imagine that there is going to be some blowback on this and i was so

00:14:59.840 happy to see uh that our own steve dace is is all over this story and i wanted to bring steve in

00:15:06.640 because he probably could explain a little bit he's a little smarter than i am so i thought he could

00:15:11.520 explain it a little bit uh he's written an article for uh the blaze if you challenge darwinism you

00:15:17.600 challenge everything about progressivism welcome to the program mr daze hey guys good morning good to

00:15:24.180 talk to you glenn thanks for having me back you bet you bet so tell me how you found this uh

00:15:29.700 story did you just stumble across it um have you watched the hoover institute uh debate on this

00:15:37.620 i didn't watch the debate i did read some accounts of of what and it's glettner is that how it's

00:15:43.980 pronounced well i think i mispronounce it so don't take it from me but i've always called him david

00:15:48.860 glertner and i've done it to his face and he's never corrected me but he's a really nice guy so he

00:15:53.400 probably wouldn't well if you do the math on this uh there's a there's an astrophysicist from used to

00:16:00.460 be from my neck of the woods at iowa state and he got he ran out uh at his tenure hearing because he

00:16:05.620 dared to work on the uh the privileged planet intelligent design project and he he ended up

00:16:11.840 delving into intelligent design because he started doing the math on this and and the math essentially

00:16:16.600 says the odds that over a random natural reoccurring purposeless meaningless processes

00:16:23.940 would result in the universe uh on a macro level that we see uh the earth on a on a mini macro level

00:16:32.100 that we have and then individual life comprised of 20 trillion complex cells that each of us possess

00:16:38.540 the odds of that occurring with meaningless random you know purposeless natural occurrences

00:16:43.780 no matter any period of time are about the odds of you taking a follicle of your hair

00:16:49.000 putting it on a tee on the dark side of the moon and then with a driver having it land anywhere on

00:16:55.820 planet earth okay those are the odds okay so hang on just a second so so people know you really have to

00:17:02.340 read up on this um and and watch this hoover institute i'll put this on glennbeck.com today but it is

00:17:10.560 it is fascinating because they go into uh why this doesn't work they explain look for for small

00:17:19.720 things survival of the the fittest it might work for instance you know your beak is you know a quarter

00:17:27.760 of an inch longer or your fur is a little thinner or whatever that might work and darwin may explain

00:17:34.600 minute changes but then they get into what it takes to make one species and the odds are

00:17:43.940 astronomical that we could even have one species and i i'm always fascinated when i go here when i

00:17:52.120 step on this shibboleth of the day and i'm always fascinated to see the responses and so uh several

00:17:57.700 some of the responses i got glenn were well uh this is a mathematics professor he's not a biologist

00:18:02.760 well great because neither was charles darwin in fact when he boarded the hms beagle

00:18:07.020 the the infancy science that fascinated him was actually geology all right and then i was told well

00:18:13.380 this guy is not a geneticist well great neither was darwin in fact gregor mendel the catholic monk

00:18:18.300 credited with starting uh genetics um he wrote his first findings in 1866 so he was a contemporary of

00:18:24.760 darwin's they never studied each other they never even met or read each other uh and then the mapping

00:18:30.340 and sequencing of the human genome which is essentially the what we know about the basis

00:18:35.100 of individual life and how it works that wasn't concluded until well into the 21st century the

00:18:40.700 individual who led that project for many years dr francis collins is actually a theist all right so

00:18:45.820 darwin wasn't a geneticist either and then we're told well you know this go ahead no i was just going

00:18:50.700 to say that the the one of their main points is darwin just didn't know all of the things that we do now

00:18:58.740 so we have we have the dna codes now which he didn't have any idea that there were even genetic codes

00:19:06.540 let alone how complex they are so there's many things none of them these guys are condemning uh

00:19:13.440 uh darwin they're all saying the same thing look at his time this was this was very very bright and

00:19:21.700 could have been but as we have moved forward the last 150 years we now know there's no way this is

00:19:30.200 even logical what you're what you just pointed out you know we draw this distinction on my show on a

00:19:37.260 regular basis that there's a difference between liberals and leftists the liberals we all got into this

00:19:43.060 business to defeat uh and argue against are just people who uh want government to permit you to do 0.95

00:19:48.300 this stuff that god says is dumb and immoral but these new leftists that we're encountering now 0.86

00:19:52.860 these are the dogmas these are this is the new inquisition the new antifada these are people that 0.99

00:19:58.280 want government to compel you to do those things and if you're not willing to then you will be made to

00:20:03.060 care and this is now in the world of so-called science at the exact same time what you're describing

00:20:08.860 with these individuals these are just men of honest scientific inquiry i have no idea

00:20:13.000 what their religious or philosophical beliefs are but they're actually just following the

00:20:16.900 scientific method they're noting that we didn't get carbon dating until a full century after

00:20:21.280 origin of species almost archaeology as a refined science wasn't recognized for another half century

00:20:27.400 after origin of species so they're just following clues and facts as they see them and letting the

00:20:32.400 chips fall where they may well it's also you know darwin darwin didn't he said in origin of species

00:20:39.400 which is very well argued i think it's nonsense but it's very well argued for the time um and he

00:20:46.200 says in there he can't explain the cabri the cambrian explosion which is a 70 million year period

00:20:54.880 that all of a sudden you go from no life to an explosion of life overnight well right where did that

00:21:02.760 come from exactly so to me i think there's a debate over the origin of species and then there's a

00:21:09.800 debate over the descent of man and and what you see in most american faculties today i mean dr francis

00:21:16.180 collins who led the human genome project for many years um he couldn't teach earth science at most

00:21:21.600 eighth grade public schools in america once he stated he was a theist they'd kick him out it wouldn't allow

00:21:27.200 it wouldn't be on a college campus and the ridiculousness of this is this is now where

00:21:32.480 we're going to take scientific inquiry and we're going to apply worldview and ethical conclusions

00:21:38.520 to it and the ugly stuff of darwinism that you see with the aborigines and favored races and 1.00

00:21:44.640 references to savages you know a lot of that is in descent of man which is kind of the hadith

00:21:49.320 to to origin of species um quran if you get the analogy you know we often quote the quran for

00:21:55.940 ugliness but the real real ugliness is in the hadiths and the same thing is true in the descent 1.00

00:22:00.820 of man so that the philosophical premises the niches the utilitarianism the marx's all of those

00:22:07.240 things are conclusions of where we take if we all agree that life is random and purposelessness

00:22:12.880 we still need an ethic we need a mythos to define who we are and why we're here and this is where the

00:22:19.060 post-modern deconstructionists come in and say you know what we've got an alternative plan for you

00:22:24.240 and that's the alternative religion that these leftists will clutch and hold on to because it's

00:22:29.200 their idol are you gonna be talking about this on your show today i'm sure it'll come up for a couple

00:22:34.620 of minutes yeah okay steve thank you so much it was a great article that you wrote uh over the weekend

00:22:39.500 and i'm glad you're on top of it and uh and thank you so much appreciate it you got it brother take

00:22:43.760 care steve days he is uh from the steve day show which is heard on the blaze radio network right after

00:22:48.720 this program his story is if you challenge darwinism you challenge everything about progressivism

00:22:54.240 it is it is it is one of the most amazing stories scientifically of our lifetime we are now at the

00:23:07.360 point when you listen to these guys now these are not schlubs i mean michael glertner is not he's he's

00:23:14.340 not just a mathematician he's one of the world david he's one of the greatest mathematicians of our

00:23:19.540 time um and you know he's looking at this uh just from a mathematical standpoint because one of the

00:23:29.020 guys who said hey maybe we should look at the genetic code uh as as an actual code maybe there is

00:23:38.400 something to all of these little things we see you know in the microscope maybe there is something

00:23:43.920 that's like a code and so he started breaking it down and that led to the human genome um uh

00:23:50.820 what do you call it a project project uh and we have found that it is an actual code and every gene

00:24:00.020 every piece of dna has a code and it's in a certain uh particular you know it's like you got to add a

00:24:07.480 quarter cup of flour then you have to add the eggs then you have to have this and it's very different

00:24:12.740 different from you know a cake to a pie and sometimes it's just the way you order things

00:24:20.380 and what david was saying was it those codes are so complex that if you took a string of let's say

00:24:28.140 pearls and it wrapped it was a long string of pearls that would go down to your belly and it could wrap

00:24:34.900 around your neck 15 times the genetic code for each of us in every animal is the equivalent of saying

00:24:44.560 okay this one has to be a ruby then a diamond then two pearls then an amethyst and then whatever uh you

00:24:55.140 know a piece of coral and they have to be in the right place he said even with all of the time that we

00:25:02.460 have it doesn't work and it also doesn't work with the cambrian explosion so he's he's saying look that

00:25:11.400 the code doesn't work and then the biggest thing that i i thought was they were explaining how if you're

00:25:19.780 going to change an animal from one animal to another you don't do it at the end so in other words

00:25:28.200 you don't change a zebra to a cow at the end because the first dna strand is that of a zebra the first

00:25:42.160 dna strand is that of a cow and then you build it off of that if you take the genetic code of a zebra

00:25:51.400 it won't have the bone density it won't have the structure it won't have the internal systems

00:25:59.100 that a cow has so the you can't do it too late because then it's just a you know it's like a

00:26:08.180 horse and a donkey become a mule if you do it too late you know it it doesn't it doesn't work

00:26:16.020 if you do it too early which you must do the entire structure falls apart it is a fascinating

00:26:24.680 conversation a little heady but everybody should know it because it i i believe this is the beginning

00:26:33.160 of the real undoing of not only this this nonsense of of just an explosion and things kind of flew

00:26:42.000 together like monkeys at a typewriter yeah uh and uh and changes as as steve points out all of the

00:26:50.340 marxist theories they all go away if this goes away this is the best of the glenn beck program

00:26:59.600 hey it's glenn and you're listening to the glenn beck program if you like what you're hearing on

00:27:13.980 this show make sure you check out pat gray unleashed it's available wherever you download

00:27:19.320 your favorite podcasts all right so i want to there's a lot of people saying oh thanks

00:27:24.460 donald trump for wrecking the the obama economic policy growth and all the great things we had

00:27:34.320 there's a lot of blame going around for the economy and there's going to be a ton more

00:27:39.640 so i want to start i'm going to take you three places today who broke the economy and how they broke it

00:27:47.660 what's really going on then how the rest of the world views us and it's shocking we truly are the

00:27:59.740 last best hope for mankind and i can tell you that because i'm going to show you how countries are

00:28:05.800 putting their money where their mouth is or actually their money where their mouth isn't they can talk

00:28:12.200 america down but boy oh boy they have a lot to lose if we fail and then i want to share something

00:28:19.960 about china that is really critical for you to understand i call it the trump card that no one

00:28:29.240 knows anybody is holding first let's start with the economy from america's heartland we see the

00:28:36.020 headlines telling us farm and bankruptcies have reached levels not seen since the farm crisis in the

00:28:42.180 1980s and in some states more than 80 percent of farms are now facing bankruptcy this is a real

00:28:50.420 problem this was one of the mainstays and the the one of the spines if you will or several of the

00:28:58.420 vertebrae in the spine of the trump election farmers more than 20 american cities virtually all of them

00:29:06.200 democratic strongholds have a homeless crisis that have reached epidemic proportions while at the

00:29:12.160 cdc they are now having to dust the textbooks to figure out how to deal with outbreaks of typhus

00:29:18.780 and cholera tuberculosis measles polio and the bubonic plague progressivism has taken us to the stone age

00:29:29.360 since 2012 95 percent of the wage and income growth is concentrated at the top five percent wealthiest

00:29:37.600 same is true with corporations while 75 percent of the fortune 500 companies have shown income growth

00:29:45.160 since 2014 more than 60 percent of small business owners have reported shrinking incomes that's main

00:29:53.360 street also not good for the president while the fed and uncle sam report that we're enjoying full

00:30:01.460 employment 100 million american adults are still not in the labor force around the world nearly all

00:30:07.740 sovereign bonds issued by governments now have a negative yield which i'll explain in a minute

00:30:14.100 including germany france japan italy belgium switzerland the uk brazil and south africa even when

00:30:22.680 adjusting for population growth student debt corporate debt credit card debt government debt are now all

00:30:30.380 at all time highs something is broken and many of us are holding our breath and hoping that things are

00:30:41.080 going to be okay because we have some positive things happening but there are others all around the world

00:30:47.920 that want this economy to fall apart something's broken

00:30:53.240 so now where do we put the blame well trump broke it he cut taxes while dramatically increasing government

00:31:02.560 spending sending our deficits and debt to levels that exceeded the worst of the obama years and he has

00:31:08.260 put tariffs on more than 40 percent of the goods imported into the united states which makes things more

00:31:14.140 expensive for the average person but then again maybe it was obama and the democrats distorting more

00:31:21.160 than 20 percent of the u.s economy with obamacare sending health care costs soaring and making millions off of

00:31:29.560 student debt by making people into serfs by using federal student loans as a piggy bank to fund health care

00:31:38.700 exchanges or maybe it was the fed in wall street who created the housing crisis with ultra low interest rates

00:31:46.820 after the dot-com bubble and by turning the mortgage industry into a speculation a futures market with

00:31:53.340 collateralized debt obligations but maybe it was bush too i mean bush too he got us into two forever wars

00:32:02.480 in the middle east costing the taxpayers more than a trillion dollars and resulting in what negotiations

00:32:09.180 with the taliban couldn't we done that in 2003 iraq and afghanistan are both still in shambles syria is still run

00:32:18.480 by assad iran is currently seizing oil tankers at will in the gulf and our will to fight is at an all-time low

00:32:26.460 but maybe it was clinton because clinton is the guy who federalized fannie may and freddie mack

00:32:33.020 in a bid to help poorer americans who couldn't afford down payments to gain to gain the access to the

00:32:39.640 american dream and home ownership resulting in millions of americans living in homes they couldn't

00:32:45.320 pay for when unemployment spiked of course then again it was probably reagan's fault because reagan

00:32:53.160 implemented a successful program to end the cold war but he did it by outspending the soviets in a

00:32:58.920 military buildup but in turn sent the budget deficit soaring for the first time

00:33:03.440 but i don't like to blame us so let's look to the saudis because it was probably the saudis

00:33:10.860 who in the 1960s colluded with the u.s to create the petrodollar forcing all nations to pay for oil only in

00:33:18.860 u.s dollars trapping all all nations around the world against their will onto the u.s dollar standard

00:33:26.400 so long as the house of sod controlled opec or it could be nixon nixon who took america and the world

00:33:34.580 due to the breton woods agreement which tied all global currencies to the u.s dollar off the gold

00:33:40.380 standard in 1971 that way we could have a never-ending cycle of credit expansion and inflation

00:33:46.420 and that's what really pushed the world to economic disaster or it could be johnson who said we'll spend

00:33:54.060 our way out of poverty we'll make sure that no child is ever poor our federal debt today is about

00:34:01.860 23 trillion dollars we have spent on this war on poverty coincidentally about 23 trillion dollars

00:34:09.320 and nothing has changed then again it could be franklin roosevelt i mean franklin roosevelt

00:34:16.740 lyndon johnson they created medicare social security farm subsidies unemployment insurance three programs

00:34:22.620 which together consume over 70 percent of all federal tax revenue turning america into the largest and

00:34:30.800 costliest welfare state in the history of the world we spend more than the soviet union did 0.91

00:34:38.000 with a total cost of 2.5 trillion dollars per year

00:34:43.080 now we got to go back further who destroyed it was probably at the creation of the federal reserve

00:34:50.220 when congress formally abdicated its constitutional responsibility to maintain and defend the nation's

00:34:57.680 money supply gold and silver instead handing control of our monetary system and currency to a cabal of

00:35:03.840 private banks which we still don't know which ones they are and bankers who shifted the u.s and the world

00:35:09.920 to a fiat currency system

00:35:11.580 i mean i could go on but i think you see the dilemma what ails the u.s and the global economy is not trump's

00:35:20.040 tariffs though they are a bad idea in my opinion it's not the transition from fossil fuels to renewable

00:35:27.140 energy it's not the bank and corporate bailouts of 2009 that papered over the financial crisis

00:35:32.840 with ever increasing unpayable debt it's all of these things

00:35:37.940 it's 100 years of misadventure through progressivism

00:35:43.300 in foolhardy policy failures

00:35:46.400 evaluating each one in a vacuum can make it seem like it was a good idea at the time

00:35:52.360 but when you examine it as a connected series of events in context

00:35:56.400 what do you get you get a clear picture of policy decisions that made an eventual global financial crisis

00:36:05.400 a matter of unavoidable inevitability

00:36:08.840 period

00:36:11.100 so who broke the economy

00:36:15.520 well if we're going to be honest and we're going to talk about

00:36:20.440 what's coming and how to fix it

00:36:23.380 we all have to stop the finger pointing and say we all did

00:36:27.300 in one way or another we all did

00:36:29.180 our grandparents our parents

00:36:31.180 and us

00:36:31.960 and now your kids will break it even further

00:36:34.800 by doing more of the very thing that started us along this misadventure in the first place

00:36:39.720 more government intervention

00:36:41.780 more central planning

00:36:43.580 more socialism

00:36:45.040 that's the root of it

00:36:48.640 if you look at the entire litany of poor policy decisions

00:36:52.600 that have brought the world once again

00:36:54.600 to what many believe is the brink of economic disaster

00:36:58.660 and possibly world war

00:37:00.440 the seed of which sprouted the poisonous tree

00:37:03.700 was the idea that the natural self-organizing

00:37:07.460 and self-correcting economic cycle

00:37:09.840 ever present in a free market economy

00:37:12.980 should be controlled by directors

00:37:16.080 and government bureaucracies

00:37:18.200 and as usual

00:37:20.700 more government

00:37:21.460 will not be the right answer

00:37:23.600 but it will be the one

00:37:24.780 I believe

00:37:25.540 even republicans will clamor for

00:37:28.420 in the coming storm

00:37:29.640 that's exactly what we can expect

00:37:34.120 the experts to try

00:37:36.140 yet again

00:37:37.540 what is the definition of insanity again

00:37:41.100 here's why we must not do that

00:37:48.560 America

00:37:50.120 the last best hope

00:37:52.540 for mankind

00:37:53.500 truly

00:37:54.980 and the numbers

00:37:57.060 explain it

00:37:58.560 you're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program

00:38:06.040 I'd like to have some laughs at the expense of Joe Biden

00:38:19.580 Joe Biden had an interesting weekend

00:38:22.140 you know

00:38:24.700 he starts with an interview

00:38:26.380 where

00:38:27.920 there's no audio of it

00:38:29.440 it was a magazine interview

00:38:30.560 yes

00:38:31.060 people apparently still read them

00:38:32.460 or at least they write them

00:38:33.840 and

00:38:35.240 he said

00:38:36.260 you know what

00:38:36.920 if you have a problem with my age

00:38:38.320 don't vote for me

00:38:39.260 done

00:38:39.800 done

00:38:41.840 yeah

00:38:42.540 I don't know if you should

00:38:44.460 you know

00:38:45.460 say that

00:38:47.120 probably not

00:38:47.700 yeah

00:38:48.160 that's almost like his

00:38:49.240 his wife's thing last week

00:38:51.460 where

00:38:51.800 you know

00:38:52.580 I know there's a lot of other

00:38:54.040 better candidates than Joe

00:38:55.720 with better policies than Joe

00:38:57.340 but

00:38:58.540 you know

00:38:59.140 who can win

00:39:00.020 who can win

00:39:00.660 Joe can

00:39:01.320 I don't think Joe can

00:39:02.620 I don't think so

00:39:03.380 I mean Joe has

00:39:04.180 I've never felt this way

00:39:05.760 and I would not say this

00:39:07.400 just to dog pile

00:39:09.100 I'm not going to dog pile on this guy

00:39:11.160 I would not

00:39:11.600 I would

00:39:12.220 you know

00:39:12.900 if you still have all your faculties

00:39:15.280 I think the wisdom of age

00:39:17.760 is really critical

00:39:19.520 but not everybody keeps their

00:39:21.600 I mean I know somebody who is

00:39:23.000 what 91

00:39:23.780 93 years old

00:39:24.900 and that guy is

00:39:26.060 you can't keep up with him

00:39:28.040 you can't

00:39:28.920 I mean he's clear thinking

00:39:30.260 he's just moving at 100 miles an hour

00:39:32.580 I have no problem with that

00:39:34.660 I do have a problem with somebody

00:39:37.340 who's in their 70s

00:39:38.620 and

00:39:39.080 starting to sound

00:39:40.540 oh I don't know

00:39:41.080 a little like this

00:39:42.060 here he is at healthcare

00:39:44.160 we have Joe Biden

00:39:48.700 Joe Biden with healthcare

00:39:49.640 if you're not satisfied

00:39:50.580 you have another option

00:39:51.900 high quality options

00:39:53.360 the public option

00:39:54.640 will be available in my plan

00:39:56.060 we'll make sure it's not

00:39:57.720 quality

00:39:58.480 we'll make sure it's only affordable

00:40:00.220 probably it's affordable

00:40:01.960 we're going to make sure

00:40:03.280 it's not quality

00:40:04.060 it's only affordable

00:40:05.200 what do you want both 1.00

00:40:06.820 you greedy bastards 1.00

00:40:07.720 you can't have them both 1.00

00:40:09.440 I love it

00:40:11.240 Joe

00:40:11.520 Joe

00:40:12.240 I love it

00:40:12.880 stop

00:40:13.660 no

00:40:14.160 just stop

00:40:14.660 then he's

00:40:15.440 okay he's in New Hampshire

00:40:17.220 and he's talking to a reporter

00:40:19.320 about how beautiful the state is

00:40:20.920 in New Hampshire

00:40:21.740 here's what he says

00:40:22.780 I'm back

00:40:23.500 I've been here a number of times

00:40:24.580 last time was I think

00:40:25.840 all the way back in 2014

00:40:28.240 but I've been here before that

00:40:30.060 I love this place

00:40:31.020 look

00:40:31.540 what's not to like about Vermont

00:40:33.460 in terms of the beauty of it

00:40:34.560 and what a neat town

00:40:35.760 I mean this is sort of a scenic

00:40:38.160 beautiful town

00:40:39.220 it's New Hampshire

00:40:39.720 the mayor's been a good guy

00:40:40.940 everybody's been really friendly

00:40:42.520 I like Keen a lot

00:40:43.580 maybe he's just jumping ahead

00:40:44.800 to the Vermont primary

00:40:46.040 when New Hampshire

00:40:47.100 is number two

00:40:47.880 but I mean what is

00:40:48.780 what is bad to say

00:40:50.500 about Vermont

00:40:51.240 New Hampshire

00:40:52.160 I could go off

00:40:53.120 on New Hampshire

00:40:54.380 New Hampshire is

00:40:55.440 I mean it just

00:40:57.040 blows chunks 0.96

00:40:58.300 but what could we say

00:40:59.900 bad about Vermont

00:41:01.360 that's that's the

00:41:03.740 that's the old adage

00:41:04.780 of answer the question

00:41:06.520 you want to answer

00:41:07.740 what do you think

00:41:08.880 of New Hampshire

00:41:09.520 you know what

00:41:10.480 Vermont is beautiful

00:41:11.400 everybody is so nice

00:41:14.480 Vermont

00:41:14.940 what could you say

00:41:15.820 bad about Vermont

00:41:16.840 then this is just weird

00:41:21.240 this is

00:41:22.440 I don't know where

00:41:23.440 this kind of comes

00:41:24.580 by the way

00:41:24.920 this is just this weekend

00:41:26.180 just so you know

00:41:26.860 all of this happened

00:41:27.880 over the weekend

00:41:28.440 here's Biden

00:41:29.080 imagining

00:41:30.240 well

00:41:31.720 he'll

00:41:32.460 he'll share it

00:41:33.700 my two political heroes

00:41:35.600 were Martin Luther King

00:41:36.740 and Bobby Kennedy

00:41:38.020 my senior semester

00:41:40.740 they're both shot

00:41:41.960 and killed

00:41:42.720 imagine what 0.96

00:41:45.640 it would happen

00:41:46.180 if God forbid

00:41:47.160 Barack Obama

00:41:47.940 had been assassinated

00:41:49.020 after becoming

00:41:49.820 the de facto nominee

00:41:51.020 what would have

00:41:51.840 happened in America

00:41:52.580 where does that

00:41:54.260 come from

00:41:54.760 I don't know

00:41:55.200 but it didn't happen

00:41:56.200 yeah it didn't happen

00:41:57.400 so why would we

00:41:58.280 imagine that

00:41:59.580 imagine

00:42:00.160 imagine

00:42:01.280 imagine

00:42:02.080 what would have

00:42:02.840 happened

00:42:03.180 if Ronald Reagan

00:42:04.140 had a nuclear weapon

00:42:05.400 in his pants

00:42:06.280 and he just went

00:42:08.360 to Kansas

00:42:09.080 and blew it 0.63

00:42:10.880 he just

00:42:11.760 what would have

00:42:12.780 happened

00:42:13.120 he was gone

00:42:14.860 I mean

00:42:15.780 right on man

00:42:17.020 I mean

00:42:17.800 what would happen

00:42:18.520 man

00:42:19.000 where

00:42:20.420 what was his point

00:42:22.300 I don't know

00:42:22.920 very strange

00:42:23.800 what was it

00:42:24.300 very strange

00:42:25.360 imagine what would have

00:42:26.220 happened

00:42:26.460 yeah well

00:42:26.940 it didn't happen

00:42:27.960 and isn't that a point

00:42:29.740 in America's favor 0.83

00:42:30.920 seems like it

00:42:32.060 yeah

00:42:32.440 yeah it seems like it

00:42:33.980 then he was describing

00:42:35.100 his long time friend

00:42:36.880 and he had a little

00:42:38.200 difficulty doing that

00:42:39.100 again still this weekend

00:42:40.260 yes

00:42:40.680 my long friend

00:42:42.080 time friend

00:42:42.760 and she's a friend

00:42:57.180 she's a time traveler

00:42:58.620 long maybe

00:43:00.460 it's the spaghettification 0.99

00:43:01.540 that she was experiencing

00:43:02.920 near one of the black holes

00:43:04.280 but she's a friend friend

00:43:21.620 he's trying to

00:43:22.560 correct it as he goes

00:43:24.520 I think so

00:43:25.160 yeah and he just can't

00:43:26.140 he just got into

00:43:26.940 one of those

00:43:27.520 you know

00:43:28.400 time tunnels

00:43:29.260 where you can't

00:43:30.500 have it back

00:43:31.200 and you just wish

00:43:32.720 you could

00:43:33.160 I wish I hadn't

00:43:34.180 started this sentence

00:43:34.980 but now it's too late

00:43:35.840 and I'm trying to correct it

00:43:36.820 I think he's gonna

00:43:37.800 get to the point

00:43:38.400 to where he wishes

00:43:39.320 he didn't

00:43:40.640 start this campaign

00:43:42.720 I think so too

00:43:43.800 because I think

00:43:44.420 he really is

00:43:45.220 yeah I don't

00:43:46.180 I don't think

00:43:46.740 he necessarily

00:43:47.380 wants it that much

00:43:48.640 and maybe that's

00:43:53.320 where it comes

00:43:54.240 you know

00:43:54.780 his statement

00:43:55.460 that if you think

00:43:56.320 I'm too old

00:43:56.740 don't vote for me

00:43:57.460 that doesn't sound

00:43:58.480 like a guy

00:43:59.060 who really wants

00:44:00.140 the nomination

00:44:00.840 it sounds like a wife 1.00

00:44:02.840 that really wants

00:44:03.560 the nomination

00:44:04.000 please

00:44:04.660 he will come home

00:44:05.860 to me

00:44:06.440 please

00:44:07.220 I know there's

00:44:08.200 lots of other

00:44:08.900 quality candidates

00:44:09.800 better than Joe

00:44:10.720 but please vote

00:44:12.480 for him

00:44:13.000 I mean that sounds

00:44:14.780 like a desperate

00:44:15.600 wife

00:44:16.120 it really is

00:44:18.040 and yet he's still

00:44:19.080 way ahead of the field

00:44:20.580 he's still

00:44:21.320 you know

00:44:21.920 the last poll I saw

00:44:23.320 he had 30% support

00:44:26.520 in the party

00:44:27.220 compared to

00:44:28.360 Elizabeth Warren

00:44:29.240 who was second at 15

00:44:30.440 and Bernie Sanders

00:44:31.680 had 14

00:44:32.240 so he's still

00:44:33.000 doubling the field

00:44:33.980 but if he goes

00:44:35.540 into full-fledged

00:44:36.480 dementia

00:44:36.980 before the election

00:44:39.540 and we have

00:44:41.420 Donald Trump

00:44:42.660 debating

00:44:43.360 a dementia patient

00:44:45.240 oof

00:44:45.620 it wouldn't be

00:44:47.640 good for the

00:44:48.160 presidency

00:44:48.580 but it would be

00:44:49.320 fun to watch

00:44:50.160 it would be

00:44:51.020 very

00:44:51.580 very fun

00:44:53.120 have a lot of

00:44:53.740 audio to play

00:44:54.440 it'd be great

00:44:55.300 it'd be good for us

00:44:56.760 yes it would

00:44:57.280 bad for the country

00:44:58.120 good for the laughs
