Transcript
00:00:08.120
Well, it's Wednesday, and a really, really interesting podcast for you today.
00:00:15.560
Today we start with China and their social score, but it's happening here in America.
00:00:20.600
A little announcement from Microsoft and MasterCard that I think you want to be aware of.
00:00:26.920
Also, Andrew Wilcow stopped by from the new Blaze TV.
00:00:34.380
It's rare that you meet somebody as well-rounded and as smart as she is.
00:00:39.300
She is really somebody that you need to meet if you haven't listened to her or heard anybody interview her yet.
00:00:47.500
We run the whole thing from the universities to Saudi Arabia and, you know,
00:00:52.860
putting Khashoggi into a blender and making a milkshake for the prince of Saudi Arabia.
00:01:07.860
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:01:20.900
If fake news was a product, then it would be a superfood because superfoods are not superfoods.
00:01:28.960
If you look at the nutrition, you know, it'll have nutritional facts or supplement facts.
00:01:38.940
You don't see that on real actual superfoods, beets.
00:01:47.160
A real superfood is something like Field of Greens because they have nutrition facts and not supplements.
00:01:56.840
USDA organic fruits and vegetables complete with all the antioxidants.
00:02:16.160
Do you remember the scene in the Terminator where the machine versus the human war starts with a gigantic thermonuclear fireball?
00:02:27.460
Artificial intelligence is coming, whether we like it or not.
00:02:30.620
And it's either going to be started with a giant fireball, you know, something terrified or something terrifying or something completely awesome.
00:02:45.960
Because AI is going to be, it's described as alien thinking.
00:02:55.040
And if you want to know, read a little bit about how AI is learning how to play Go and is beating all of the Go champions, which is one of the hardest games to play.
00:03:07.520
And at first they thought that it was cheating.
00:03:16.040
Oh, and those are always great when they're really, really powerful.
00:03:19.240
All we know is that there is currently an all-out race to see who the first is going to be to create AI.
00:03:32.440
Now, looking at the possible threats of AI, you know, catastrophic Terminator, I'll be back.
00:03:44.160
However, in the very near future, an algorithm-controlled economic meltdown might ultimately take place, you know, instead of the Terminator, it could be a thermonuclear explosion of money.
00:04:04.780
But this rise of the machine could level our country and our world.
00:04:15.400
The Dow yesterday took another hit, plunging nearly 800 points.
00:04:21.720
Now, it's kind of funny when the market takes a beating.
00:04:24.620
If you flip on the news, what are you going to find?
00:04:30.000
You'll have an unlimited number of people saying, well, we're looking into what happened.
00:04:36.440
I think it was interest rates, definitely interest rates.
00:04:38.780
Oh, I believe it was the Trump administration or what they're doing with China.
00:04:57.660
And most likely, it's a combination of things, including those damn unicorns.
00:05:20.880
So it is coming, whether it's tomorrow or four years from now.
00:05:28.080
But we're already like two or three years beyond the point where we should have had a recession.
00:05:33.680
This time when it comes, I think it's going to be bad.
00:05:37.180
I'm not sure how it's going to come, when it's going to come, but it is going to come.
00:05:42.560
But the artificial intelligence algorithms controlling the markets isn't going off of looks and feels.
00:05:52.200
It's not going off and saying, oh, this could be bad.
00:05:58.560
It's only crunching the numbers in a very cold and calculated way.
00:06:16.140
This is just an algorithm that is reacting as it was programmed to do.
00:06:26.580
AI algorithms now control over 80% of the U.S. stock market.
00:06:32.620
That means men and women are not really, you know, the ones that you always see after a day like yesterday.
00:06:38.860
You're bound to click online or see in a news report one of those pictures of all of the guys on Wall Street, you know, down on the trading floor with the shocked faces with their hand over their mouth like, oh, my gosh, this is the worst thing ever.
00:06:51.480
Or I, oh, my gosh, I think I'm going to jump out of a window.
00:06:56.120
But those guys aren't really doing, they're only doing 20% of what happened.
00:07:01.820
The vast majority of trades are not happening by men and women rapidly handing, you know, giving hand signals, sell, sell, buy, buy, buy.
00:07:18.960
The algorithms have been programmed to look for certain triggers and then buy or sell accordingly.
00:07:24.180
One thing they've learned to take action on is when the odds of a potential recession materialize.
00:07:34.160
When that happens, the algorithms see the odds of a recession go up and they kick in to sell.
00:07:43.380
As short-term interest rates began trading above long-term interest rates, the two-year and five-year yields inverted.
00:07:54.180
Which often happens in times of economic weakness or recession.
00:08:00.200
The Dow lost 3% of its value because it did rebound a bit.
00:08:05.220
And all of it happened based off of a small indicator that artificial intelligence algorithms diagnosed in milliseconds
00:08:14.520
So everybody, all the humans still ask now, like, I'm not sure what happened.
00:08:38.360
You see, back in 1929, and every time we have a major sell-off, what happens?
00:08:47.060
And people are like, okay, we've got to bolster the market.
00:08:50.140
We've got to send a signal of feeling that it's going to be great.
00:08:57.800
Now, what happens when a much larger event happens?
00:09:03.740
80% of our stock market fate is in the hands of machine learning.
00:09:16.440
Because, you know, and it's going to be hard because, you know, James Cameron is not working on a script to show you how this one ends.
00:09:24.220
Since we started with the rise of the machines, I thought I would take you to a couple of other things.
00:09:39.500
Remember, my theory is that the dark parts of the world, like China, are going to go right into 1984.
00:09:50.100
In case you don't know, George Orwell wrote 1984.
00:09:52.840
1984, it's really kind of a book based on, now this is in contention, but if you read it, you're like, yeah, it seems pretty good.
00:10:04.840
And it's kind of like Anthem, but it's really more like 1984.
00:10:12.300
And We is about a state that just takes over everything.
00:10:18.240
So George Orwell, in the 1930s, wrote 1984 about a society that is the anti-America and could monitor absolutely everything.
00:10:34.500
Well, that's China and their social credit system.
00:10:40.520
You're not doing anything based on your social scores.
00:10:55.500
And back when I was in school, we used to have to read these things called books.
00:11:01.380
And we liked them because we didn't have any of those little fancy boxes that you could keep in your pocket and watch all those damn TV shows on them.
00:11:17.140
And the debate has always been, is it going to be 1984 or Brave New World?
00:11:21.920
You kids nowadays, you watch shows like, you know, that movie that everybody saw, I think, The Island.
00:11:38.920
It's got some of those young'uns in that movie, half naked the whole time.
00:11:45.240
The debate was, is it going to be a utopia that we're all just taking so many drugs and everything is presented in such a happy way through consumerism that we just all embrace it?
00:12:05.020
And then before you know it, we're all trapped.
00:12:07.160
Or is it going to be a hostile takeover of a state where they just build a prison and you know they're building a prison?
00:12:17.900
They're building a prison and everybody in China knows they're building a prison.
00:12:26.940
They built 1,400 concentration camps where as many as 2 million people have already been disappeared in the middle of the night.
00:12:47.000
We are embracing it because it just makes sense.
00:12:59.900
Yes, that credit card company is going to help you out along with our friends at Microsoft.
00:13:08.360
Now, this is a story completely unrelated to a story that just also came out that Microsoft has just said that they will give the United States government access to all of their new technology.
00:13:33.360
America is going to be able to have access to all of Microsoft's programs.
00:13:43.880
I think I can hear a jet flying in formation across the stadium now.
00:13:56.740
Anyway, a question to be answered later, and it definitely has nothing to do with this announcement.
00:14:05.900
Voting, driving, applying for a job, renting a home, getting married, boarding a plane.
00:14:17.860
Well, MasterCard knows you need to prove your identity.
00:14:20.420
So, in partnership with Microsoft, we are working to create a universally recognized digital identity.
00:14:37.020
Of course, I never will need any ID when I go in to vote, because that's just racist.
00:14:43.320
Well, if I ever need an ID, my credit card company and Microsoft dismiss the story about giving access to the government.
00:14:52.380
Um, they're going to just create this digital ID for me, and they will know everything about everything.
00:15:13.840
Now, if we could just have Common Core that makes absolutely no sense at all, but does monitor the retinal scans of my children and is constantly watching their eyes so they can track their heartbeat and their blood pressure
00:15:31.320
and see where they are really not interested and see where they might disagree with a teacher, just so we can make that teacher a better teacher.
00:15:42.200
Oh, and we can also categorize them so we know very young when we know exactly you should be a gymnast.
00:16:01.320
If this doesn't, if this doesn't appear to be the exact same social score system without the government involved and without anybody saying, oh, by the way, we're going to have a social score.
00:16:19.300
This is the same system they're implementing in China with guns.
00:16:24.680
We're doing it and saying, oh, my gosh, MasterCard, you've just made my life so easy.
00:16:34.640
Now, in a completely unrelated story out of the state of New York, there is a new bill being proposed in the statehouse of New York, but it's common sense gun control.
00:16:49.020
It would require a firearm, a would-be firearm purchaser, to turn over three years of your social media history.
00:17:01.220
Well, that seems reasonable because we always do say, gee, if you just watched what they said online, you'd know they were a kook.
00:17:10.260
A three-year review of social media profiles would give an easy profile of a person who is not suitable to hold or possess a firearm.
00:17:22.000
This according to a New York State senator in proposed legislation.
00:17:27.460
Applicants to purchase a gun would be required to turn over their social media passwords to accounts like Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram.
00:17:38.740
And they would have to allow police to see a year's worth of all of their searches.
00:17:44.820
A year's worth of searches on Google and Yahoo and Bing.
00:17:51.220
As well as anyone renewing their permit for a pistol would also be subject to this investigation.
00:17:59.100
So every couple of years, you could have the government come in and say, we need to look at your social, turn over all your passwords.
00:18:07.060
Now, I'm only bringing this up because I think it seems a little clunky.
00:18:11.240
Why would I have to turn over all of my passwords when I could just partner with Google and they could tell everybody who I am?
00:18:28.320
Why have any kind of investigative body looking into who I associate with and everything else
00:18:37.460
when Microsoft and MasterCard will know where I've been, who I visited, how I spend my money?
00:18:44.520
This doesn't sound like the Chinese thing at all.
00:19:07.460
Why was global warming so huge in the early zeros?
00:19:16.600
And then after about 2008, it just kind of went away.
00:19:21.100
And then 2010, 2012, nobody's talking about it.
00:19:25.300
All of the wicked predictions of if we don't do something by this date in 2012, it's too late.
00:19:37.980
And then all of a sudden, it is, there's, everybody is saying, this is, we are running out of time.
00:19:47.040
Humanity, all humanity will be gone if we don't do something right now.
00:19:51.460
Yeah, it's back and it's worse than it's ever been.
00:19:54.020
Um, I, I, because I, I think because they lost some momentum maybe after 2008 when there weren't as many frequent, more intense hurricanes and tornadoes.
00:20:06.960
And a lot of the predictions weren't coming through and there was the pause in the warming and maybe it was harder to sell.
00:20:16.680
You know how China is, is building a cage right now for the Chinese people, okay?
00:20:26.680
I mean, the whole society, China is going to be a cage by 2020.
00:20:31.080
Um, uh, this is the largest transfer of wealth ever in the history of mankind.
00:20:39.340
Already it's been happening, but even more so with global warming.
00:20:43.760
It's just a giant transfer of wealth and while there is wealth, transfer it and build the cage that the French people are now feeling.
00:20:52.760
They're now feeling, look, the people who are being hurt are the little people, not the big guys.
00:21:00.220
So take the money while there's money to be had, build the cage under the global warming thing.
00:21:07.100
I mean, I think, I think global leadership is afraid of their own, they're afraid of their own people.
00:21:14.880
And, and I think that the global warming, the green is the new red.
00:21:19.120
I mean, it's the communism of, of this particular generation and it's the way they're, they're getting communism done in a lot of different places.
00:21:27.540
And they just said, the, the UN climate chief just said, we're going to have to completely transform our economies and our societies in order to stop the global warming catastrophe.
00:21:41.460
You're going to, so you're going to transform the free market into what?
00:21:46.880
The green technology that's going to replace the free market system.
00:21:50.740
And look, the free market system has done more to help global warming than any communist.
00:21:59.060
And even, even all of the solar panels that the government paid for, all those guys are out of business.
00:22:04.340
The vault, the vault was setting people on fire.
00:22:09.740
Yet Tesla, even though Tesla was a bailout or, you know, got government money, still it's, it's a private idea, not, not done by, you know, a giant corporation in bed with the global warming stuff.
00:22:25.320
It was new technology that I think just what he did, he let all of those plans out online.
00:22:34.480
He more than paid for it by saying, I'm not taking any patent, take it, take it.
00:22:47.880
No, the new cars that are being built now, gasoline engine cars have in the end, less emissions than even a Tesla because you're still plugging it in and it's a coal fire plant.
00:23:03.240
And on top of it, the emissions that it takes to make those cars as compared to what we're now using to make a regular gasoline engine.
00:23:13.720
Not to mention the batteries and what happens with those afterwards.
00:23:23.040
These people have been conditioned far more than America has to be accepting of things like a carbon tax.
00:23:29.720
And look how they responded to it when it actually came down the line and they were actually given a carbon tax.
00:23:38.260
They rise up and start burning the place down to the ground because they don't want to pay a carbon tax.
00:23:49.500
I mean, the comment he had yesterday was right.
00:23:52.400
Oh, it looks like the people of France agree with me more than you.
00:24:04.560
I mean, this just shows how these people don't even, they don't even respect or believe their own nonsense.
00:24:11.660
When the climate industry gets together and they start emitting more CO2 than 8,200 American homes combined in a year for this one-week conference,
00:24:24.640
and that doesn't include the thousands of people flying to get there.
00:24:28.240
That just includes at the summit itself after they're already there.
00:24:33.120
And how many of them have flown in on private jets?
00:24:39.300
So it's more, it is more CO2 than 8,200 American homes give off in a year.
00:24:49.200
And we're supposed to believe that you believe this is catastrophic?
00:24:53.420
There's no way you act this way if it's catastrophic.
00:24:56.320
No, when you say this is catastrophic, you set an example.
00:25:07.760
You could go to Facebook and say, hey, I want virtual reality conferences.
00:25:11.700
And everyone can plug in Facebook or Oculus or whoever.
00:25:19.800
It's going to be the first big global summit, but everyone is invited and you have to spend
00:25:32.380
You're not driving from the hotel to the conference.
00:25:35.460
You can do it in the comfort of your own office right now.
00:25:39.320
And if you really believed that we're on the verge of catastrophe, isn't that how you'd
00:25:45.300
If I really believed that the planet is on the brink of complete disaster, there's no
00:25:49.500
way I'm doing a conference like this that burns that kind of CO2.
00:26:01.640
They know that this is not where they say it is.
00:26:18.760
If I start raising taxes and I start hurting the economy with a plan like this, the people
00:26:26.920
So, why when you are already struggling as a Democratic Party or whatever, and all around
00:26:32.900
the world, as you're already struggling, why is it that they continue to push forward
00:26:50.320
But there are those who are on the front lines, the politicians, the political parties all
00:26:59.500
At some point, you've got to say, we're not going to win an election next time.
00:27:10.780
Because human just survival instincts for the politicians and the parties start to kick
00:27:32.900
This is being shown as a third rail all around the world.
00:27:47.360
You don't think the people are going to rise up?
00:28:14.580
You don't think the people of Europe and of the UK, when they see this, when they can't get out.
00:28:24.180
But you still have to take all the immigrants we tell you to.
00:28:33.040
These guys, the politicians, are either so brain dead and so far away from the people, which is possible.
00:28:42.700
But we are entering a let them eat cake moment to where I don't think that was, you know, oh, piss on the poor.
00:28:54.060
But if it was, what it meant was she was surrounded by cake.
00:29:14.860

Patriot Mobile is just a great service where most people don't even know that when you sign up for Verizon or any of these other cell phone services, they're taking a portion of their profits and they are sending them to places like Planned Parenthood.
00:29:56.240
Now, Patriot Mobile has all of the great service, et cetera, et cetera.
00:29:59.740
But you're not paying all the extra from, you know, these service providers.

Andrew was one of our founding talents at the Blaze TV.
00:30:39.520
I think, Andrew, when you were there, it was GBTV, was it not?
00:30:43.820
First, I joined Real News after the name was changed to the Blaze and then shortly after
00:30:50.020
being a panelist on the Blaze, you guys elevated me to my own program and I became part of the
00:31:02.220
Yeah, because we had a setup for you up in New York and everything and we're thrilled that you're back.
00:31:09.220
You left and joined CRTV and been doing a bang-up job on CRTV and now you're back into the fold and
00:31:16.480
something that is, you know, bigger and better and I think, you know, there was a story, you will
00:31:23.060
appreciate this, Andrew, there's a story, I think, in Vanity Fair about how Vox and all of these,
00:31:29.480
all these big media companies, Vice, all of these internet companies, they just couldn't make a go
00:31:34.900
of it and they're all, they're all shutting down because nobody will merge and it's a lot tougher to
00:31:45.720
Yeah, no, look, I said this when you joined me yesterday that, you know, people thought you were
00:31:51.880
crazy to leave a major, you know, national network with all of the bells and whistles and,
00:31:57.740
and, and, and resources and I remember I said it to you then, I said it to you yesterday,
00:32:02.280
I'll say it to you now, I thought you were crazy too, but I wanted to be part of it.
00:32:05.880
I was like, this man is out of his mind and whatever he's doing, that's where I'm going.
00:32:09.900
So anyway, so it's great to be in the family together.
00:32:17.320
Let's, let's start with Joe Biden and, and the, the elections that are coming in 2020.
00:32:23.700
And I would, I, as much as I'd like to hear you talk about the Democrats, feel free if
00:32:28.000
you want to, I would like to hear what your thoughts are on the GOP.
00:32:31.600
If you're going to run on a record, you kind of have to have one.
00:32:35.420
You and I toured this country together with FreedomWorks and we went, we went to bat for
00:32:43.240
Dr. Greg Brannon, Matt Bevin, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Mike Lee, you name it.
00:32:49.800
We traverse the country for these, these conservatives who believe in the bill of rights and the
00:32:56.620
constitution, limited government, all that stuff that we talk about all the time.
00:33:00.520
Every single GOP member ran on cutting taxes, cutting the budget, repealing Obamacare, securing
00:33:07.900
Then once they got power, they turned around to people like us and said, well, hold on.
00:33:16.140
And my first thought was the Democrats never do that to their base.
00:33:19.200
They may order their response to demands of activists.
00:33:23.060
You start with a takeover of a, of healthcare and you end up at transgender bathrooms, but
00:33:28.240
This Republican leadership delivered on nothing.
00:33:35.460
It wasn't, honestly, it wasn't, it wasn't stunning.
00:33:42.480
Yeah, it wasn't, it wasn't something where we could say, oh my God, for the, you know,
00:33:47.820
eight years of hard work, starting with the Tea Party.
00:33:50.400
We've got this fundamental transformation of, of the tax code.
00:33:53.980
We're going to have a flat tax and the states are going to pick up what they need to run
00:33:58.540
We, we got, we got some money in our pocket, but they spent more than the Democrats ever
00:34:05.100
Whether you agree with it or not, they all ran on it.
00:34:06.960
They, they, the, the Democrats, the Democrats eventually will deliver on their promises
00:34:12.220
Whereas the Republicans tell us to sit down and be quiet until the next time they need
00:34:16.740
our programs, our audiences, and the, and the activists in the base of the party to deliver
00:34:22.340
Imagine Andrew, if, um, Donald Trump weren't president, it was Hillary, uh, and the caravan
00:34:29.960
came to our gate, they would have opened the borders, even though right now she is across
00:34:36.500
the, you know, across the ocean and she's in Europe and she's like, oh boy, that immigration
00:34:46.120
Uh, and they would, they're going to do the same thing.
00:34:48.440
If we don't get real lasting security and the GOP, they have a few more weeks to do it.
00:34:55.340
They've now punted the, they aren't going to, they're not going to, they aren't going
00:34:59.120
to, you know, they're not going to, they're not going to, they could, why would they do
00:35:02.320
something the lame duck they didn't, they didn't do when they had, when the iron was
00:35:06.940
What, what, what's their motivation at this point?
00:35:14.460
Do you remember me sitting on set with you in Texas and you said to me something to the
00:35:19.560
effect of talk me down from the ledge on Mitt Romney?
00:35:24.180
That was all I could, that was all I could give you was he's not the communist.
00:35:33.540
You know what's sad about the, about the, about the migrant crisis is that this is something
00:35:39.020
that nobody talks about, especially in Democrat circles that we sent for the last year available
00:35:43.660
$297 million to Guatemala, 127 million to Honduras.
00:35:47.780
And we're doing those packages almost annually.
00:35:50.240
If you look up on USAID's website, it's actually a very good website for a government site.
00:35:54.700
Not $297 million to veterans, not $297 million to failing school districts, not $297 million
00:36:01.040
for our own infrastructure, beloved infrastructure, to these other countries.
00:36:04.400
And we're being told they're fleeing poverty and violence.
00:36:07.560
Well, the USAID website breaks down almost to the dollar how much we spend on infrastructure,
00:36:13.200
how much we spend on healthcare, education, civil society, governance, law enforcement.
00:36:17.320
And I have not heard any credible voice in the Congress, Republican or Democrat, the president's
00:36:23.000
mentioned it, but not in Congress, of, hey, why are we sending the money there if the people
00:36:28.660
If we've sent the money to comfort them, to better them, to improve their lot in life
00:36:35.900
And my only conclusion is, it's a win-win for these governments.
00:36:39.220
We send them the money, they send us the people, they keep the money, don't have to spend it
00:36:43.460
They come here, we give them healthcare, we find them a job, we give them education.
00:36:47.820
It's a win-win if you're the government of Honduras.
00:36:53.060
And I would, if I were Donald Trump, and I'm really disappointed that we haven't done this,
00:36:59.880
Look, I'll help you, but you are not to send your people here.
00:37:04.900
As far as Mexico is concerned, they allowed that caravan to continue to go.
00:37:14.860
And I don't know why we haven't gotten tough and just said, okay, guys, we shouldn't be dealing
00:37:21.760
Mexico, you let them come through your country.
00:37:31.320
But when we talk about the generosity of America, we can argue back and forth about foreign aid.
00:37:36.380
But haven't we done, what is it that we haven't done for the people of these countries?
00:37:41.540
This is so, you know, we can separate the European question about migration.
00:37:47.600
We have been giving these countries, these people that we see that are desperate, that
00:37:52.060
are following voices, that are telling them, and you know what's really sick, Glenn?
00:37:56.680
This is the worst epidemic of Alinsky, Cloward, Piven, whatever you want to call it.
00:38:02.880
These poor people are just the only person that benefits from community organizing is
00:38:09.900
Barack Obama's got a $65 million book deal, and the South Side of Chicago is the South Side
00:38:15.300
These people are being used by people who are furthering their own political agenda and
00:38:23.620
It is sickening to watch the images of women carrying children looking for an end to this,
00:38:31.440
and they're being led by people who know darn well this is not how you file an asylum claim.
00:38:44.160
Tell me your take quickly on Mueller, what we found out yesterday about Flynn, and what
00:38:51.720
Well, for a guy that allegedly colluded with the Russian government, you know, having calls
00:38:56.820
with Sergey Kislyak as the incoming national security advisor over certain global sanctions,
00:39:02.300
if that is the root of collusion with Russia, no jail time sounds pretty good for a guy who's
00:39:08.720
such a rogue agent, and by the way, why aren't we looking at Claire McCaskill's very tight
00:39:16.060
If business in Russia, the Moscow Tower, is some smoke and fire of criminality, why aren't
00:39:22.600
the Podestas, and by virtue of that Clinton, who took $500,000 to go speak to Putin's bank,
00:39:29.440
Look, if you want to have a sense of law and order and fairness and say, we have to make
00:39:34.260
sure our political class is on the up and up, you can't say it's okay when they do it.
00:39:39.040
You can't say that we're going to ignore the fact that Hillary Clinton was deleting emails.
00:39:43.920
We're going to ignore the fact she was destroying devices and evidence.
00:39:47.040
We're going to ignore the fact that people got their eyes on classified information like
00:39:51.580
Anthony Weiner, and we're going to say, but, you know, somebody wanted to go to Trump
00:39:56.740
Tower and meet with Don Jr. to lobby over the Majitsky Act.
00:40:03.740
Yeah, it's, and I think this is what people are missing, because they immediately, you
00:40:08.200
say that, and people on the left will immediately jump to, oh, that's whataboutism.
00:40:12.820
No, it's really not, you know, but it is basic fairness, which I thought the left was all
00:40:21.720
You can't say, I'm going to apply the law this time, but not last time, or not the next
00:40:31.380
And I think that's all that the American people want is just, can we just apply these things
00:40:37.620
And it's so, it's so ironic to me that people are coming to our border who are fleeing chaos
00:40:47.080
They say they're flying, fleeing it because they can't work.
00:40:49.880
They can't have a job and they have no chance because there is no equal justice system.
00:40:58.380
They're asking us to break the law, which would create what they had.
00:41:03.300
And on top of it, we are allowing both sides, Democrats and Republicans.
00:41:07.640
We are allowing our country to become, uh, uh, a, uh, a klepocracy where it's, it's just
00:41:18.460
I got something you're going to love and it's going to scare you at the same time.
00:41:21.460
I know you're a big fan of investigative journalism and documentary and journalism.
00:41:28.580
And we did this, we produced this before we even knew that there was going to be a coming
00:41:36.200
Tell me about this, this documentary that you did investigative journalism.
00:41:42.560
Um, we sent a camera crew down to the border and we interviewed, um, former law enforcement
00:41:51.220
officials, many of whom we had to obscure and what they will tell you.
00:41:57.540
And it, it starts at the border and it goes to small towns throughout the Midwest.
00:42:02.400
The documentary series, two particle cartel in the mid, in the heartland cartel in the
00:42:06.720
heartland shows how Hezbollah and Hamas have gotten into an unholy alliance with the human
00:42:16.320
The, the terrorist organizations have found the border so porous and profit to be made to
00:42:23.980
be sent back for their activities in the middle East and some, even in the United States that
00:42:28.620
they've entered into this agreement where the terrorist organizations are teaching the
00:42:32.780
cartels about explosives, weapons, providing weapons.
00:42:36.800
They are in, they are wholly involved now in the drug trade and the human smuggling trade
00:42:44.140
And this is making its way to small towns where small town police departments with their budgets
00:42:49.840
and limited resources are not able to keep up with the influx of gang activity.
00:42:55.440
And you are going to be shocked when you hear some of these people think of it like this,
00:42:59.940
Glenn, and your audience can really think about it like this.
00:43:06.980
Try to imagine the kind of things that we know go on in the prison system under the watch
00:43:12.300
of the, the, the guards, the warden, the state, what have you put that on steroids, that there
00:43:18.600
are people on the border on our side as well, that we think are the good guys that are making
00:43:24.380
money by enabling this unholy alliance between Hamas, Hezbollah, MS-13, Los Zetas, you name
00:43:44.700
Uh, Blaze TV cartland, uh, cartel in the heartland.
00:43:47.800
And you can find that now, uh, at, uh, blaze tv.com.
00:43:55.520
If I can get it in advance, I'll watch it and maybe we can have you on, uh, as well later
00:44:02.280
Cartel in the, in the heartland on blaze tv.com slash Beck.
00:44:07.920
And you'll save 20 bucks on your year subscription.
00:44:25.360
She is the roaming millennial, a host of roaming millennial uncensored.
00:44:29.400
She is somebody that has about 20 million views on YouTube, uh, hundreds of thousands
00:44:35.920
of followers, uh, she has also been on Fox news, the daily wire, rebel media, Prager U,
00:44:41.740
She was born in Canada, raised in Hong Kong, still lives in Canada, and now is truly a very,
00:45:01.480
All of the intellectuals are like bailing our ass out.
00:45:05.060
Well, you know, it's funny because if you look at, I guess, conservative figures right
00:45:08.440
now, a disproportionate amount of them are Canadian.
00:45:12.220
But on the other, I think it's like that right now because things have gotten so bad in Canada,
00:45:16.760
just so off the rails that there's been like a reactionary movement.
00:45:20.540
Um, I hope that the States doesn't get to that point.
00:45:25.460
Well, because I've always thought Canada was off the rails and so, you know, and, and Americans,
00:45:35.240
I have good Canadian friends, you know, all that crap.
00:45:38.020
Um, but I've always thought Canada was off the rails.
00:45:41.900
What is happening now that you think maybe Americans don't really understand?
00:45:47.820
So for the longest time in Canada, we've had that whole universal healthcare, socialized
00:45:52.560
Um, but it's, it's going even further than that now, because right now we have someone
00:45:56.480
like Justin Trudeau in power and, you know, places like Ontario, they're actually legislating
00:46:01.240
things like gender identity as protected for children.
00:46:04.660
Which means that if you're a parent and your daughter or son decides that, I don't know,
00:46:09.660
they're omni gender or whatever the new trendy thing is these days, uh, you could potentially,
00:46:14.040
um, have your parental rights in danger for not recognizing that.
00:46:18.700
So, and not to mention the, the fact that now not only do we have this whole political
00:46:23.040
correctness that has just infested our government, but combine that with the refugee crisis that's
00:46:28.520
going on in Europe, Canada isn't Sweden or Germany right now by any means.
00:46:32.280
But again, with someone like Trudeau in power, we're, we're seeing those same kinds of challenges
00:46:37.820
Is there anything about you growing up in Hong Kong that, uh, helps you see the world differently?
00:46:47.440
If, if you know about the, uh, the, the British ruling it for a hundred years and then going
00:46:52.400
And it's funny because I, I grew up in Hong Kong when it was currently a colonial power.
00:46:57.740
I mean, between Hong Kong and Canada, it's kind of like I'm British adjacent, I guess.
00:47:01.740
Um, but since then, every time I go back when, you know, the Chinese, they took things over
00:47:07.100
again, it's, there's more and more encroachment of freedoms that I think a lot of Hong Kong
00:47:11.420
people took for granted, especially during the nineties, um, things like religious freedom,
00:47:16.620
And I think that for Canadians and Americans may not have ever been something that they
00:47:23.380
But when you come from a background where there's actually political upheaval currently going on
00:47:27.340
in a very big way, I think it just makes you a lot more cautious of government
00:47:30.960
So what is it that you have to say that has connected with 20 million people?
00:47:36.540
What is it that you think, um, people are saying, yes, finally somebody saying that,
00:47:44.080
you know, I asked myself that question a lot, um, shocks me still, but, uh, I think people,
00:47:51.020
And what's interesting is that on YouTube, which is where I started off, my audience isn't
00:47:57.460
I have a lot of people on the left who are listening to me.
00:48:01.940
And I get a lot of people saying, Hey, I don't agree with you, but I appreciate your
00:48:05.620
And we need more people listening in on people they don't agree with.
00:48:08.740
But I think what people are interested in is the fact that I'm not trying to demonize
00:48:14.660
I don't think of myself as an unreasonable person.
00:48:16.920
And I'm just trying to call out what I see as unreasonableness in the world that is masquerading
00:48:21.400
as civility, as tolerance, as acceptance or whatever they're calling it nowadays when
00:48:32.000
As someone who started off on YouTube, that's, that's been something I can't remember not
00:48:36.280
being concerned about, whether that's, you know, being flagged, demonetized, just kicked
00:48:41.580
But hey, that's why I'm so thankful that conservative media platforms like, like this
00:48:47.720
And I have people who are wanting to get started in commentary or writing, ask me, um, for some
00:48:54.760
And the number one thing I could tell them is that to not put your basket in any one platform
00:48:59.500
because it could be taken away at any point, especially if you're someone who says anything
00:49:03.820
unpopular in regard to gender, immigration, anything like that.
00:49:07.160
That's the thing that, you know, the press and some people try to make this a merger between
00:49:11.740
CRTV and, and the blaze TV about, you know, about me or Mark or money or whatever.
00:49:18.280
It's not, it's really truly about just like-minded people all across the conservative spectrum
00:49:24.940
coming together and saying, I don't, I, I want to be in a pack because if we don't, if
00:49:38.640
And what's, I mean, I, I'm excited about this as someone who not only produces conservative
00:49:44.720
I like the idea of having everything in one place.
00:49:47.360
And I think if you're a subscriber, it's, it's kind of hard to say, Hey, I want this
00:49:51.920
show and I want this show, but I only have this many dollars per month to buy like 30
00:49:56.380
Um, but what's been interesting to me, like you've mentioned is that people are framing this
00:50:02.160
And I think if you think that between like yourself, uh, Crowder, Gavin McInnis, that that's an echo
00:50:11.880
They just, they take everything that disagrees, uh, that, you know, uh, you know, we should
00:50:18.560
have open borders and, and America is a bad place and just anything outside of that,
00:50:28.020
We have people who are, you know, rah, rah, GOP kind of, you know, and then libertarians
00:50:35.600
we have the entire spectrum and, and I, I'm, I'm hoping that, uh, that we can be an example
00:50:46.420
And when we have differences, just coming on each other's show and saying, Hey dude, I have
00:50:55.080
And we may still disagree, but we don't have to kill each other over it.
00:50:59.320
We don't have to call each other Nazis and racist, sexist.
00:51:03.800
So tell me, tell me what keeps you, uh, up at night that you think if more people could
00:51:09.800
just, if they just be aware of this, or if they could just, you know, thread the needle
00:51:17.100
Well, when I was in college, I studied political science and for the longest time, I thought
00:51:24.020
And it's funny because I was small government minded, but I was still in the mindset that
00:51:27.700
of, Oh, if government were this specific way, then society would be perfect.
00:51:31.280
It happened that the way I thought government should be was small, limited and pro freedom,
00:51:35.660
but I was still very reliant on outside forces being able to dictate how good society is.
00:51:40.680
The older that I've gotten, the more I've realized that policy is of course important.
00:51:45.160
I will, I will never say that it's not, but at the same time, I, as I get older, I think
00:51:50.920
that if more people were to, I guess, check themselves, their own personal lives.
00:51:56.100
Um, and for me, that's very, very largely, um, Christianity.
00:52:00.080
If we were to be more engaged with that and how we behave with our family members, our friends,
00:52:04.920
strangers, all of these questions about politics, it's not that they wouldn't matter, but they
00:52:10.900
I mean, if, if people, for example, um, had healthy family lives, then the question of
00:52:18.300
If, if people had, um, I guess more opportunities because they embrace their own education and
00:52:24.600
the value of hard work, then things like welfare would be less of an issue.
00:52:27.740
Not that they wouldn't matter, but we wouldn't be, I guess it wouldn't be a make or break issue.
00:52:31.940
And so, well, if you don't self-regulate, somebody has to do it for you.
00:52:35.120
Right. And Dennis Prager talks about this a lot, where if you have small government,
00:52:39.080
you kind of need a big God, right? You need something to, I guess, motivate you,
00:52:43.700
something that you care about, something you're passionate about.
00:52:45.780
Otherwise it's just, it's, it's anarchy. And I think Jordan Peterson, um, you know, he's,
00:52:51.280
he's not a Christian, but he's someone who is at least trying to talk about the need for
00:52:55.800
self-improvement and the value of that. And people are responding to it in a big way.
00:52:59.940
I think millennials get a bad name. I think they get a bad rap. Um, and I don't know, maybe,
00:53:05.940
maybe they are all what everybody says. I, I haven't met them. Um, I have met some,
00:53:11.440
but I've met those same people in my generation. I mean, that's normal. Um, tell me who the millennial
00:53:20.620
Um, in my opinion, we're, we're well-educated. Uh, you know, a lot of us have degrees. We're
00:53:25.580
entrepreneurial, uh, which is something that's interesting because as much as we tend towards
00:53:30.140
socialism, which absolutely millennials do, uh, we're also, I guess, more of a self-starting
00:53:35.760
generation than previous generations. It's not that we're that great, but through technology,
00:53:41.140
This is the thing I can't understand about millennials, because when I got into radio,
00:53:45.540
it's been 45 years, I had to go to the FCC and take a test to be able to know how to operate
00:53:53.960
a transmitter. Okay. I had to take a test. Then I had to go to a corporation, get a job.
00:53:59.560
You know, there were very few jobs, blah, blah, blah. You don't have to do any of that stuff now.
00:54:03.200
And you don't even have to go on radio. You can do it from your own home with your own stuff. You
00:54:07.920
can be heard more than any other time. You want to be a band in my generation. You had to wait for
00:54:13.600
the record scout to come to the bar that you were playing. You don't even need that anymore.
00:54:18.260
How is it this generation who is more free to do things because of the internet than any other
00:54:25.520
generation ever in the history of mankind is still saying, but I want more government?
00:54:31.460
Well, I think it's kind of a paradox. We're so used to this freedom because we have so much freedom,
00:54:36.300
whether that's, you know, racially in terms of gender, we're just a very free, very egalitarian
00:54:41.320
generation. And I think that's almost made us complacent because we're so used to having things
00:54:45.860
so great, so amazing. Not that there haven't been, I guess, economic, you know, recessions
00:54:51.220
associated with our generation coming to the workforce, which there have been, but we're so
00:54:55.460
used to everything going our way that we almost can't imagine a way that it's not working out.
00:55:00.560
So I think, you know, when someone my age looks at something like healthcare in the U.S., which,
00:55:05.200
you know, as much as liberals like to say Republicans or the right or whatever think the American
00:55:10.740
healthcare system is currently great, I've never heard a single person on the right say,
00:55:14.540
yeah, this is, we're good. This is how it should be. But in any case, they look at something like
00:55:19.100
that and think, oh, well, this is kind of not working. So let's just go for full on socialism,
00:55:22.940
right? Why not? Because they don't, they don't understand that. No, like things can get significantly
00:55:27.360
worse. This is like, if you think this is awful, you have not seen anything.
00:55:32.320
That kills me because it's almost like you've never traveled anywhere else before in your life.
00:55:39.280
You know, when we look at our problems today, are you kidding me? You know, the number one cause of
00:55:46.280
death, what, 120 years ago for women was fire. It would burn to death. I mean, we don't even have
00:55:54.200
that. I don't think that's even on the top thousand ways to die for women today.
00:55:58.220
Yeah, for sure. I mean, people who complain about things like microaggressions or man spreading,
00:56:03.580
all those things. Like anytime I hear someone just mention those words, what, what I think of is
00:56:08.320
just privilege, like definitely class privilege. If you're, if that's what you're worried about,
00:56:13.380
then I'm sorry, you've had a pretty nice life. And also it's just, it's so, I mean, this is a word
00:56:17.860
that's been overused, but Eurocentric, like if that's your problems, that's, that's such a first
00:56:22.340
world problem. And it's almost kind of, it's a sign of how well we've come as a society, ironically,
00:56:29.980
It really is. It shows how, how fat we are. Really it is. You have like, you know, you're so
00:56:36.620
you're, you don't have enough to do, you don't have to go out and, and, uh, you know, go find your
00:56:43.720
own food, build your own fire, build your own house, you know, you know, hitch the wagon with
00:56:50.020
the horses to go into the town. I mean, you have so much time. You're like, you know what? I was
00:56:55.180
really offended by something that somebody said. And I think I should put a group together and we
00:57:01.200
should all, we should start a hashtag group. Oh my gosh. The Blaze Radio Network. On demand.
