The Glenn Beck Program - Best of The Program ｜ Guests： Dr. Voddie Baucham & Mayor Richard Newton ｜ 6⧸29⧸20

00:00:00.100 Welcome to the podcast. Today we look at some big cities and how terrible things are going there.

00:00:06.080 So many of them, once again, have shown to be left-leaning Democrats who have decided to apply these fantasy policies to their cities and things aren't going well.

00:00:18.440 And then we look at a different type of city, a smaller town run by a conservative.

00:00:22.980 And what he's doing as far as the masks are going on in his particular community, he's being called radical.

00:00:30.900 Listen to him. Tell me if you think he is.

00:00:32.740 Also, we have a guest from Zambia who is going to tell us a little bit about what it's like for African-Americans, or I guess he would be upset at that term, but African-Americans around the globe, which doesn't make too much sense.

00:00:47.200 But you find out that maybe it's not so bad for black people here in America when you compare it to the rest of the world.

00:00:54.120 We go into that, as well as Cheryl Atkinson, former CBS and many mainstream media sources.

00:01:00.080 She's worked all over the place, and she's here to tell us about what's really going on in the media today.

00:01:27.620 Here's the podcast.

00:01:34.520 You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:38.300 So, Richard Newton, Dr. Mayor Richard Newton, mayor of Colleyville, Texas, he is not going to police the mask mandate among the COVID-19 panic.

00:01:58.580 And the governor has said everybody needs to wear masks.

00:02:03.680 He's closing down the bars.

00:02:05.120 Things are getting heating up with the youth in Texas.

00:02:09.120 And he says he's not going to do it.

00:02:12.060 That's not making him popular with some people and other people love it.

00:02:17.540 Richard Newton, welcome to the program.

00:02:20.960 Thank you, Glenn.

00:02:21.800 I really appreciate you having me on this morning.

00:02:23.700 Sure. 0.95

00:02:25.320 Now, there's people, I mean, because I know, I talk to people in New York City and Los Angeles, and they're like, you people are crazy. 0.97

00:02:34.020 You just want everybody to die. 0.67

00:02:37.340 And it's different in some of the cities than it is around most of America.

00:02:43.800 But Texas is starting to see some real numbers climb.

00:02:48.520 Why have you decided not to wear masks or enforce masks?

00:02:54.620 Yeah.

00:02:55.260 So, if you allow me, let me first tell your audience what it is I'm not doing, because there's many misconceptions out there.

00:03:04.140 One, I am not anti-mask.

00:03:06.660 On the contrary, I and Colleyville have encouraged individuals to take all precautions they can to protect themselves and their families.

00:03:15.100 The individual decision is very important.

00:03:17.620 I wear a mask.

00:03:18.380 My wife has made 40 masks for our families.

00:03:21.100 These are personal, individual decisions.

00:03:23.280 Number two, I have not countermanded the Tarrant County order.

00:03:28.100 The Tarrant order is actually for businesses to establish a policy to wear a mask and their customers.

00:03:33.780 That's the issue.

00:03:34.600 And I'm not aware of any business in Colleyville that hasn't put the policy in place.

00:03:39.580 And three, if I get a chance before we're through, there have been no deaths in Colleyville.

00:03:43.800 That's very important, and I would like to explain to you why, if I get to that point.

00:03:48.520 Well, go ahead.

00:03:49.180 Explain that.

00:03:51.240 Go ahead and explain that.

00:03:53.200 Okay.

00:03:53.760 I learned there's been no deaths in Colleyville.

00:03:55.800 A lot of numbers have consistently been very low.

00:03:57.960 But I learned yesterday there's a fake profile, Facebook profile, by the name of Sherry Michaels.

00:04:03.560 She's posed as a very conservative, religious individual and wrote this very long, gut-wrenching post about her 8-year-old child dying in Colleyville.

00:04:16.540 Yesterday afternoon, for whatever reason, I guess, or pressure brought on her, but she has recanted and said that's all fake, it's not true.

00:04:25.960 So my message to people is please be very careful in what you read in the social media and react to, because there's much in it that's just flat, wrong, and purposely erroneous.

00:04:37.840 So that was my message.

00:04:39.300 Why did she do that? 1.00

00:04:42.260 Is she a very religious, conservative person with a kid, or is she none of those things?

00:04:48.920 No.

00:04:49.480 In fact, I don't even know if it's a woman who ever created this fake profile.

00:04:53.300 But in the recant, the recant was actually more vicious than the story, and the true colors came out.

00:05:01.200 She called me and all my elected officials and Colleyville fascists and all the terrible things that they could dream up.

00:05:09.660 So it was clearly a political stunt, but that's going on.

00:05:13.560 People just need to know that that really is happening.

00:05:16.240 And in fact, she had hundreds of thousands of comments and stuff.

00:05:19.780 It's really a shame, very devious and vicious. 0.95

00:05:23.480 Okay, so Richard, you would probably be the most disappointing fascist to fascists, seeing that you are not willing to say you must do these things. 0.95

00:05:41.180 And I want to make it clear again, but you wear a mask yourself, and you think it's a good idea to wear masks. 0.53

00:05:50.480 You're only doing this as a personal liberty thing.

00:05:55.420 Yes, and the reason I'm doing this, this is the most interesting part of all of this.

00:05:59.620 The DA's office had a conference call with all the police departments, including us, and indicated that they have no way to prosecute this.

00:06:08.520 This is unenforceable.

00:06:10.280 And so I cannot be dishonest to my citizens.

00:06:14.900 I need to tell them the truth.

00:06:17.040 I do not believe any city in Tarrant County can enforce this, and that's why we're not doing it.

00:06:22.600 It would put our police in a very awkward situation, a very embarrassing situation.

00:06:27.160 It could lead to such a thing such as the Dallas Salon debacle, where they were in this enforcement paradox, and it was embarrassing to everybody.

00:06:36.820 So it just doesn't make sense for the government to try to tell a business to enforce something that even the government cannot enforce itself.

00:06:46.800 That's unfair to the business and the citizens, actually.

00:06:50.020 But I would encourage everybody to do it.

00:06:53.800 So why are people so upset then, Mayor? 0.82

00:06:57.160 I mean, because you have been called everything under the sun, and you don't care about people, and you're an embarrassment to the city.

00:07:06.780 I mean, that's what people are saying.

00:07:08.500 I love this. 0.76

00:07:09.260 I have friends in Plano and Frisco and Dallas, and they all think we're nuts.

00:07:13.080 It's embarrassing.

00:07:14.120 I'm embarrassed to live in Colleyville right now.

00:07:17.400 That's from Kellen Spann.

00:07:19.000 I've talked to a young mother yesterday at some length, and I just asked them questions, and in asking questions, you know, they think that I have, and they've been told, and in social media, our detractors say that we're not, we don't want, we're making people not wear masks.

00:07:39.800 Well, that's completely untrue.

00:07:41.520 So they don't have their correct information.

00:07:44.720 They don't understand that this is not enforceable.

00:07:47.720 This is not a mask issue.

00:07:49.040 This is an enforcement issue.

00:07:50.580 It's a, and then they, I don't, you know, why that's happening, I can't tell you why that's happening, but that's what is happening.

00:07:59.580 So I always simply calmly ask people what they're, why they think they're, why they're mad at Colleyville and want to tell me things that are wrong, I correct them on what's right.

00:08:09.420 And typically, they still understand, but may not agree, but they understand it.

00:08:15.180 And the governor, how's your relationship with the governor, Greg Abbott?

00:08:21.960 Very good.

00:08:22.860 I think Governor Abbott has done a fantastic job.

00:08:25.380 I mean, I know some people disagree, but I think he's very considered.

00:08:29.100 He considered all factors.

00:08:30.600 I think this Tarrant County order was put together very quickly without a lot of thought, with no discussion with the cities on how to enforce it.

00:08:39.740 And that came about after the fact, after he put the order in.

00:08:43.780 But Governor Abbott, it's not enforceable because Governor Abbott himself has edicted that there is no local governmental agency that has the right to mandate that individuals wear masks.

00:08:57.020 And he's done that because it's a constitutional issue.

00:09:00.440 He's not going to violate that.

00:09:02.260 So that's the reason it's unenforceable.

00:09:05.240 How do you feel about all the governors and the mayors around the country that are just grabbing all this power?

00:09:13.780 Well, I think it's unfortunate that they're using this for exactly what you said, to grab power.

00:09:22.260 And I think it's unfortunate when government entities do things such as this.

00:09:28.880 It's unenforceable, but they know it's what people want to hear.

00:09:33.720 And so they do it, but it's kind of a hollow thing to do to me.

00:09:38.180 I think it's important to be straight up with people.

00:09:42.060 The reason is I have had citizens ask me, they say, well, if you aren't going to enforce it, why do you just say anything?

00:09:48.320 Don't say anything, which, by the way, is what all the other cities are doing.

00:09:51.500 They're just not saying anything, but they're in the same situation we're in.

00:09:54.740 And I say that for three reasons.

00:09:58.380 One, just my personal principles.

00:10:00.600 When I'm in office, I think I owe it to our citizens to be straight up and honest with them.

00:10:05.460 That's just a personal principle.

00:10:07.360 In Colleyville, we have four key principle values.

00:10:11.620 Two of them are communication and transparency.

00:10:14.500 So we're going to communicate, and we're going to be completely transparent.

00:10:17.800 So that's why I needed to tell people up front our position.

00:10:22.100 Number three, if we just said nothing, I can guarantee you what would happen, and probably will happen somewhere,

00:10:28.940 is somebody walks into a business and sees somebody without a mask.

00:10:32.580 They get very upset.

00:10:34.120 They want to call the police to get it corrected and to enforce the policy.

00:10:38.360 They call the police.

00:10:39.340 The police comes over, and the police said, I'm sorry.

00:10:42.340 There's nothing we can do about it.

00:10:44.020 And then the police department gets blamed for not doing their job.

00:10:49.240 I think that's a terrible position for politicians to put their police force and their city staff in.

00:10:54.960 And I won't do it.

00:10:55.920 I simply don't think it's right.

00:10:59.380 Richard, I think there's probably a lot of people out in the listening audience now all over America that's like,

00:11:04.820 I wish that guy was our mayor.

00:11:06.840 Thank you for explaining this.

00:11:08.460 It is a very different story than we're getting in the media.

00:11:13.160 And even the local Dallas media has got this wrong.

00:11:18.980 Thank you so much.

00:11:20.140 Appreciate it.

00:11:21.340 Well, thank you for having me on and giving me the opportunity to explain that.

00:11:24.600 I really do appreciate it.

00:11:26.540 You bet.

00:11:27.420 You bet.

00:11:27.880 Thank you so much.

00:11:29.640 Mayor, Dr.

00:11:30.860 Or Dr. Mayor.

00:11:32.420 Mayor, I don't remember which comes first.

00:11:34.800 Richard Newton, the mayor of Colleyville.

00:11:36.960 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:11:53.780 There's a guy who I think was making videos on time.

00:11:58.800 Unfortunately, the American people didn't feel that way.

00:12:03.580 Now his videos online on YouTube are burning everything up.

00:12:08.440 His name is Dr. Vody Botcham.

00:12:11.380 He is the dean of theology at the African Christian University.

00:12:15.580 He is an American that now lives abroad in Zambia, where he is actually taking care of black lives.

00:12:23.600 And he joins us now over the phone.

00:12:27.020 Vody, how are you, sir?

00:12:29.600 I am fine, Glenn.

00:12:31.280 Thank you for having me back.

00:12:33.860 You bet.

00:12:34.420 You bet.

00:12:35.120 I want to talk to you a little bit about a few things.

00:12:37.900 First of all, can I get your comments and your thoughts about white Jesus? 0.83

00:12:42.460 Because now there's a movement and a new poll out that says 31% of blacks want the white Jesus destroyed and replaced with black Jesus. 0.64

00:12:55.060 That's interesting on a number of levels, not least of which, you know, a lot of black people had the same experience. 0.89

00:13:02.420 If you grew up, you know, in a black household, especially if you grew up, you know, in the South.

00:13:08.080 But I grew up in Los Angeles and it was still true there.

00:13:10.440 When you went into a home of a black person, an older black person, there were generally three pictures on the wall. 0.99

00:13:17.220 There was a picture of Martin Luther King.

00:13:20.360 There was a picture of John F. Kennedy.

00:13:22.540 And there was a picture of Jesus.

00:13:24.560 And it was the white Jesus. 0.88

00:13:26.760 And nobody ever complained about the ethnicity of Jesus on the wall.

00:13:33.980 And it really became an issue more with the black power movement and especially with organizations like the Nation of Islam and others.

00:13:45.080 So that's one thing that I find interesting about this.

00:13:47.980 A second thing that I find interesting about this is I'm a Reformed Baptist, right?

00:13:51.580 And so for me, I don't want any images of Jesus.

00:13:55.860 I think it's a violation of the Second Commandment.

00:13:58.640 But if I were to advocate for taking down all images of Jesus because of the second of the Ten Commandments from God Almighty,

00:14:09.580 I would be dismissed out of hand as a religious zealot.

00:14:13.740 But now, in the age of anti-racism, somebody wants white Jesus taken down, and there is absolutely no objection. 0.95

00:14:26.480 And so for me, what's interesting about this is that it points to what I see as a new religion.

00:14:33.540 This is a religious fervor that we see.

00:14:37.240 There are new commandments.

00:14:39.400 There is a new canon of Scripture.

00:14:41.980 There is a new definition of sin, a new definition of salvation. 1.00

00:14:47.420 And unfortunately for white people, there is no salvation because you are a racist and a white supremacist. 1.00

00:14:52.700 There's nothing you can do about it. 1.00

00:14:54.120 And ultimately, you can never be cured, which means you can never be forgiven.

00:14:58.660 Well, that sucks to be us, doesn't it?

00:15:01.480 Well, not you, but me. 0.82

00:15:05.240 Jason, it's great to be me, man.

00:15:07.340 I can be worshipped.

00:15:08.160 I can have people bow down on their knees before me.

00:15:10.740 And I can shine my shoes.

00:15:13.680 And if I'm not happy with them shining my shoes, I can ask them for a stock in their company.

00:15:18.200 I can just tell people to shut up and listen to me.

00:15:21.060 You know, it's crazy.

00:15:23.120 It's great.

00:15:23.380 It's absolutely crazy.

00:15:24.200 Yeah, it's crazy.

00:15:26.300 It's the backlash.

00:15:27.260 People are not going to continue to do this forever.

00:15:29.360 And there's real racism out there.

00:15:32.840 There are real racists out there.

00:15:34.820 There's real hatred out there.

00:15:36.440 It's being driven underground.

00:15:38.500 And what I'm worried about is the backlash and the response.

00:15:42.080 How do you mean?

00:15:45.240 What do you fear?

00:15:49.040 Well, what I fear is people coming to a place where they say, listen, this is crazy. 1.00

00:15:55.620 It's stupid. 1.00

00:15:56.900 It's a bridge too far. 1.00

00:15:58.420 I don't want to talk about these issues anymore.

00:16:02.140 I reject this.

00:16:03.620 I reject you.

00:16:04.880 And all of a sudden, any type of real conversation about real problems goes out the window because of the unreasonable nature of the way these things are being forced right now.

00:16:18.500 So how do we avoid that?

00:16:24.240 Because, I mean, when you get down to take the statues and all the stained glass window of Jesus and his white friends, look, Jesus, I don't think Jesus was white. 0.72

00:16:34.220 I think he looked like a Jew from the Middle East.

00:16:37.080 I think that's what he probably looked like.

00:16:39.080 But I don't care.

00:16:41.100 That's not essential to my salvation.

00:16:44.020 I don't care what he looked like.

00:16:46.340 I really don't.

00:16:47.520 But when you get down to this where you are now taking things that are deeply, deeply personal, how do you stop it?

00:17:01.840 That's what I'm referring to when I talk about the backlash.

00:17:06.680 These things are unsustainable.

00:17:11.800 People are only going to bow the knee for so long.

00:17:15.340 People are only going to bow down in obviessence before the statue of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

00:17:23.820 for so long before people finally say, listen, that's enough and that's too far.

00:17:30.980 And here's why that's an issue.

00:17:33.440 Because with this movement, with this radical Marxist movement, this Black Lives Matter movement, a 99 is an F. 0.97

00:17:43.780 And we need to be clear about that.

00:17:47.420 A 99 is an F. 0.86

00:17:50.280 You can do everything that they demand of you.

00:17:54.900 But the minute you decide that's a bridge too far, the response is you failed. 0.96

00:18:01.140 I knew you were a white supremacist. 1.00

00:18:03.400 I knew you were a racist. 0.99

00:18:05.260 And you're completely repudiated.

00:18:07.360 And any kind of absolution that you had is immediately taken back.

00:18:14.080 So was Mike Pence right in refusing to say Black Lives Matter?

00:18:19.120 Yes, I think he was.

00:18:21.320 And what worries me is that there are so many Christians who are not taking that stand.

00:18:27.020 Because, again, we have to separate this movement from issues.

00:18:35.360 Issues.

00:18:36.720 So here's what the Marxists do.

00:18:40.040 Here's what the Marxists have always done.

00:18:42.560 You use words and phrases.

00:18:45.880 And you pour into those words and phrases your own meaning.

00:18:50.140 And oftentimes you create kind of this Kafka trap, you know, where if somebody does not use the phrase that you want them to use,

00:19:01.740 it proves that they are what you say they are, right?

00:19:06.960 So prove you're not a racist by using that phrase.

00:19:10.180 You refuse to use that phrase, then you're a racist.

00:19:14.240 Let me push back on you and you tell me how to handle it. 0.99

00:19:18.880 So then, Votie, Black Lives Don't Matter to you. 0.97

00:19:24.180 Yes, see, I'm not playing your game.

00:19:26.080 Why do I need to play that game?

00:19:28.620 First of all.

00:19:29.520 Well, because it's a very easy thing to say.

00:19:32.800 Black Lives Matter.

00:19:34.280 Don't they?

00:19:35.420 Why would you refuse to say it?

00:19:37.620 I know that that is a phrase that is part of an organization.

00:19:42.060 It is a trademark phrase. 0.75

00:19:43.660 And it's a phrase designed to use black people. 0.96

00:19:47.320 That phrase dehumanizes black people because it makes them pawns in a game that has nothing whatsoever to do with black people and their dignity 0.98

00:19:57.700 and has everything to do with a divisive agenda that is bigger than black people. 0.97

00:20:07.420 That's why I'm not going to use that phrase.

00:20:09.380 Because I love black people.

00:20:11.860 I love being black.

00:20:13.760 I love black people because I are one, right?

00:20:17.220 That's number one.

00:20:18.360 Number two, I don't have to prove anything to you.

00:20:22.020 That's number two.

00:20:23.180 This is about me being right with God.

00:20:27.200 And number three, this movement is dangerous.

00:20:31.360 This movement is vicious. 0.99

00:20:33.540 And this movement uses black people. 0.98

00:20:36.600 And so if I'm really concerned about issues in the black community, and I am, 0.81

00:20:43.320 then I have to refuse and I have to repudiate that organization

00:20:47.920 because they stand against that for which I am advocating.

00:20:54.500 Tell me why it's not good enough to be a non-racist, to not be racist.

00:21:02.920 You have to be anti-racist.

00:21:04.700 That seems like a pretty good goal.

00:21:08.660 Yeah, until you recognize what that means, right?

00:21:13.460 Being anti-racist means that you advocate against racism.

00:21:18.820 And that sounds good too, right?

00:21:20.800 But then we have to define racism.

00:21:23.900 And we define racism according to critical theory.

00:21:28.560 Critical theory, which comes from Marx, the Marxist idea that, you know,

00:21:34.480 you reduce everything to oppressed and oppressors,

00:21:38.540 this sort of Hegelian view of history, right?

00:21:41.160 So you keep backing these things up.

00:21:43.960 And what these guys have done is they've created an entire glossary of terms, right?

00:21:49.400 And if you agree, you're sort of backed into another corner

00:21:55.280 and then backed into another corner.

00:21:57.340 And eventually, this is my problem.

00:22:00.520 And a lot of people ask, well, why are you going to Glenn Beck's program?

00:22:05.240 Number one?

00:22:07.340 Oh, yeah.

00:22:08.040 You've been on once.

00:22:08.680 I'm sure people ask, I'm sure people ask you, you know,

00:22:11.000 why you have me on your program, because, you know.

00:22:13.700 No, I've got nothing but good letters on you.

00:22:17.420 Ah, well, just hang in there.

00:22:19.260 They're coming, brother.

00:22:20.080 Hang in there.

00:22:20.640 All right.

00:22:20.800 Okay.

00:22:21.640 But here's the thing.

00:22:23.380 Because what is happening in our country and what is happening in the media

00:22:26.320 is that we're removing God from the equation.

00:22:29.480 And I'm on here because this is one of the only places that I can be free to address that.

00:22:38.780 And to me, that's what's really dangerous and egregious about this.

00:22:43.900 This is a new religion moving toward a utopianism that finds salvation outside of God, 0.81

00:22:50.760 that finds hope and salvation outside of Christ.

00:22:54.260 That is completely unacceptable.

00:22:56.940 And it's also idolatry.

00:22:58.780 We are literally bowing before men.

00:23:01.420 We're bowing before statues of men.

00:23:04.100 That's idolatry, Glenn.

00:23:06.240 And we're trying to find hope in places where there is no hope.

00:23:10.720 It's an over-realized eschatology.

00:23:12.940 We believe that the government is going to save us.

00:23:15.620 Here's what I find interesting, right?

00:23:16.860 So we end slavery in 1865, and then we get the 13th Amendment, the 14th Amendment, the 15th Amendment.

00:23:25.120 All right.

00:23:25.780 Excellent.

00:23:26.560 The government did something about racism and white supremacy.

00:23:30.540 Ah, not so fast.

00:23:31.900 Because then we have segregation, Jim Crow, the KKK, and all this sort of stuff.

00:23:37.200 Okay, fine.

00:23:38.100 The government's got to come back 100 years later, 1864, 1865.

00:23:42.600 We have the Civil Rights Act, and then we have the Voting Rights Act.

00:23:45.640 Finally, the government has responded.

00:23:49.000 Ah, not so fast.

00:23:51.020 Now here we are, a generation later, when the government has not been able to eradicate racism, right?

00:23:59.120 So what's our answer?

00:24:01.640 Advocate for the government that has proven incompetent in these areas to do it for us, but for real this time.

00:24:12.860 Glenn, it's the wrong answer.

00:24:14.800 Now, let me hurry to say, I want good laws.

00:24:20.260 I absolutely want good laws.

00:24:22.880 I'm not one of these individuals who says, you know, ah, politics, why should we have anything to do with politics?

00:24:28.180 Ironically, people have considered me too politically active for a lot of my ministry, right?

00:24:33.700 And so I'm not saying that we shouldn't advocate for that.

00:24:36.880 What I'm saying is right now what I'm seeing is that people are pressing this like this time we're finally able to get the ball over the goalposts.

00:24:47.240 And I'm saying absolutely not.

00:24:49.860 Christ is our only hope.

00:24:51.640 He is our only answer to these issues.

00:24:54.500 But when critical theory comes in and now everything becomes systemic and we move outside of the individual, all of a sudden our hope does become a systemic hope, a governmental hope.

00:25:11.000 And so what I don't want to see you talking about that backlash again, you know, is people saying, number one, we don't need to deal with the hearts of men anymore because we absolutely do.

00:25:23.060 Racism is real prejudice is real or saying that we only need to deal with the hearts of some men, because now we say racism is something that only white people, you know, can experience. 0.78

00:25:35.100 Glenn, I know some black racists.

00:25:38.120 I'm related to some. 0.99

00:25:40.100 OK, and they need their hearts changed.

00:25:43.560 Right.

00:25:44.100 And so I'm worried about that.

00:25:46.300 And so much of this just moves us away from the truth.

00:25:51.560 And it moves us away from legitimate discussions about real things that actually do need to change and be addressed.

00:26:03.920 So what how do you address people who say, look, I'm yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, they're Marxist, but I'm not a Marxist.

00:26:13.040 And and most of the people that are marching are not Marxist.

00:26:16.840 And so, you know, we're just trying to get some change here.

00:26:21.560 On some on some real issues.

00:26:24.120 I mean, because that's really what people are saying.

00:26:26.360 I think they they just don't believe the Marxist side of it.

00:26:31.100 I don't know how.

00:26:32.000 And you have a lot of churches now going in and going all full Black Lives Matter. 0.86

00:26:40.100 Yeah, you absolutely do.

00:26:42.600 And some people, because they don't know what the organization is about and others, in spite of the fact that they do know what the organization is about.

00:26:53.060 And you listen, I am not saying that we don't advocate for change, that that's that's I mean, that's the that's the nature of the American experiment.

00:27:05.140 Right.

00:27:05.680 That's the nature of of our history as a country.

00:27:09.900 Every every couple of years, we're advocating for change.

00:27:13.400 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:27:19.100 I want to talk to you a little bit more about Black Lives Matter and some of the things that we that we talked about last Wednesday.

00:27:31.900 On the television show, because we went through the funding of Black Lives Matter, and it is it is truly remarkable.

00:27:44.860 What.

00:27:47.200 You know what what what we know about Black Lives Matter and how they how they get all of their all of their funding.

00:27:56.700 I want to talk a little bit about one of the things that we we showed last Wednesday is the the group that I don't think you might have heard of, but I don't think you really understand what it is.

00:28:13.440 Democracy Alliance.

00:28:14.560 Have you ever heard of that still Democracy Alliance?

00:28:17.340 Yes, I've heard of it only from you, though, I think.

00:28:19.660 I mean, they're not a yeah, well-known thing to the average person.

00:28:24.040 Do you know what it is?

00:28:26.700 Uh, I don't want to say the word laundering, but, you know, that's that's my impression.

00:28:34.560 Well, OK.

00:28:36.180 All right.

00:28:36.760 Well, I didn't say that.

00:28:39.540 It's a dark money organization, and it was founded by.

00:28:44.920 Guess George Soros, but also has very influential influential members like Tom Steyer.

00:28:53.600 Hmm, Tom Steyer.

00:28:55.860 Why do I know that name now?

00:28:58.280 Since 2005, this one organization, Democracy Alliance, has directed six hundred million dollars to progressive candidates and policies.

00:29:11.880 Six.

00:29:12.240 That's over half a billion dollars.

00:29:14.780 From this one organization.

00:29:18.000 Now, Soros and Rob Stein created this money making jug juggernaut, if you will.

00:29:24.640 Um, and they knew.

00:29:29.580 After the election of President Bush in 2004, they knew that the progressive party was in trouble.

00:29:36.540 And so they got together and they did something.

00:29:39.640 And I boy, I wish I was telling you a story about Republicans doing things like this or or constitutionalist or libertarians doing something like this.

00:29:51.100 But no, no, no, we don't.

00:29:54.400 So what they did.

00:29:56.560 Is they get together with 70 of their billionaire friends and millionaires, and they got together with them in 2005 with a long term goal of the progressives taking power.

00:30:09.940 Soros donated 18 million dollars of his own money.

00:30:13.680 Now, here's how they operate.

00:30:14.900 Secrecy, apparently, is paramount.

00:30:18.500 Democracy Alliance, the members meet twice every year, but their agendas are and who attends highly guarded secrets.

00:30:28.740 We we had a a a document that was smuggled out of one of the meetings.

00:30:38.380 And it is.

00:30:40.880 It's pretty shocking.

00:30:42.320 It shows media format, media matters for America as one of their main allies.

00:30:48.980 And they outlined a whole way that media matters can operate.

00:30:54.340 But they gosh, they need more funding.

00:30:57.380 And when you look at the progressive groups that they are funding, it is astonishing.

00:31:04.840 America votes, American Constitution, Black Civic Engagement Fund, Brennan Center, Center for American Progress.

00:31:11.880 Center for Community Change Center for Budget and Policy Priorities, the Common Purpose Project Fund for the Republic.

00:31:21.060 Oh, that sounds nice.

00:31:22.480 The Latino Engagement Fund, Media Matters for America, New Media Ventures, New Organization Institute, Organizing for Action, Progressive Majority, Progress Now, State Voices, Women's Equality Center, Youth Engagement Fund.

00:31:39.360 I mean, it just goes on and on.

00:31:41.400 I'm I'm I'm I'm really just not even out of the A's.

00:31:46.880 Democracy Alliance maintains its privacy of its members and the dark money.

00:31:53.000 And what they are acting as is this combination of the World Bank and a social network for progressive billionaires.

00:32:01.520 And here's what you have to do if you want to be a member.

00:32:05.020 You have to pay a twenty five thousand dollars initiation fee.

00:32:09.080 Oh, do they spank my bottom thirty thousand dollars a year in dues and an additional two hundred thousand dollars a year to groups that Democracy Alliance supports.

00:32:21.280 But the vast majority of funds come from solicited donations from outside of the billionaires of which Doctor Democracy Alliance serves as a pass through to their favorite organizations.

00:32:34.280 So it's a pass through.

00:32:36.700 Or what did you so inaccurately describe this as do I had?

00:32:43.800 I was honestly a little distracted.

00:32:45.680 I was thinking about I have some dirty clothes at home and I need to put them in the laundry machine and clean them and cleanse them so that people wouldn't necessarily know that they were dirty before.

00:32:58.520 But now they'll say, wow, those are clean clothes.

00:33:00.560 And the whole time you'll be thinking, yeah, they've actually been really dirty in the past and you don't know about it.

00:33:05.460 So that's I was thinking about a home a home issue with my clothing.

00:33:09.600 And I think I I think I got it.

00:33:13.060 I think I got it.

00:33:14.500 We also talked about how people are influencing what's happening on our streets.

00:33:22.220 Project Veritas had a video that we we showed you last week where there are national organizers with a group called Refuse Fascism.

00:33:33.260 And it's an organization that works in tandem with Antifa and now is plotting the destruction of capitalism, you know, from swanky, you know, upscale restaurants where they where they talk about.

00:33:49.000 Hey, we've got and we have the video of it, you know, George Soros and Tom Steyer.

00:33:54.860 I mean, we we've been talking to them now.

00:33:57.300 They don't want to be named, but they're going to they're going to come out and they've got some really big things that they are going to do.

00:34:05.240 And there's going to be we have the video.

00:34:07.580 Go ahead.

00:34:07.900 Play it.

00:34:08.260 Listen to this.

00:34:08.980 We did apply for a grant from Soros at Webbering a long time ago.

00:34:13.720 We actually did get a grant from them.

00:34:16.620 There is going to be a need for thousands of people and millions to come into the streets.

00:34:24.800 We're trying to be with Tom Steyer.

00:34:26.160 We've been talking to his assistant, meeting with his main, his main advisor on the future.

00:34:33.520 I think he has political ambitions that he may actually want to not be directly connected.

00:34:41.880 OK, so they're talking about how they did get money from Soros and how they're meeting with Tom Steyer and they don't want to be directed directly connected.

00:34:50.700 But that what their goal is, is to put thousands of people on the streets and then millions of people on the streets this summer.

00:35:00.840 Now, this came out before there were thousands on the streets and millions on the streets.

00:35:06.480 And they are talking about protests and riots and anarchy.

00:35:11.720 This is very, very well crafted.

00:35:14.940 This is exactly what is behind the people of Black Lives Matter.

00:35:22.740 Black Lives Matter is not a charitable organization.

00:35:28.360 You're not.

00:35:29.340 That's why they're not raising money themselves.

00:35:31.860 They'll say give to Black Lives Matter. 0.98

00:35:33.840 But when you go there, you're actually giving to Act Blue, which is a 501 C4, Stu, do you know?

00:35:42.800 And so you can you can get a charitable contribution for your taxes, but that's because it's going to Act Blue.

00:35:52.780 And when you see how they're spending their money at Black Lives Matter, very little of it actually goes to Black Lives Matter in the first place.

00:36:04.600 Act Blue is another.

00:36:08.260 Hey, let me just pardon me for just saying it.

00:36:10.840 Stu, don't forget to do your laundry.

00:36:12.800 Yeah.

00:36:13.700 Okay.

00:36:14.500 Let's make sure we keep up with that, because laundering is your your clothing is very important.

00:36:19.620 Your clothing is very, very important.

00:36:22.540 So anyway, so you're looking now at a group that is is funding, of course, Black Lives Matter and giving them the money that you donate.

00:36:40.300 Not all of the money, we don't think not all of the money, we think a portion of the money and out of that portion, about 80 percent of it goes to the global operations, which means consulting fees.

00:36:57.900 Hmm.

00:36:58.900 Who are they consulting with the salaries and the air travel for a global organization?

00:37:08.380 Only six percent of it goes actually to the inner city.

00:37:14.600 Only six percent of it goes to the local chapters.

00:37:18.320 God only knows what they're doing with it.

00:37:19.820 But this is a giant fundraising scheme and it's all going into the same pot that are doing a lot of advertisements and a lot of other things for the Democrats.

00:37:33.140 So they can win in this next election.

00:37:36.260 We're all being played here.

00:37:38.500 And Mike Pence was right for not saying Black Lives Matter. 0.99

00:37:42.980 We all know that they do in reality.

00:37:47.660 But we those of us who are paying attention also know exactly who these people are and what how they are using black people, how they are using the plight and how they are souping things up with all cops are bad to get their way in November.

00:38:08.440 But they're not only just those power players are not only using the black strife, they are using Black Lives Matter.

00:38:19.420 They're using these these Marxists to be able to forward it.

00:38:25.260 And there's one thing that George Soros is not.

00:38:30.100 He's not a Marxist.

00:38:32.200 So why would someone be giving money to a bunch of Marxists? 1.00

00:38:36.900 Because they're useful idiots. 1.00

00:38:39.660 They're the ones that will in the end be scooped up. 1.00

00:38:43.580 They're the ones in the end that the bottom up top down inside out really is effective.

00:38:51.500 Right now, you don't really want the top to come down with with Donald Trump because Donald Trump is not going to be the effective one.

00:39:02.920 The effective one is possibly the next president who won't even know when he's in the Oval Office or when he's taking nappy naps and drooling on his pillow.

00:39:13.460 When Joe Biden gets in, if he, God forbid, gets in, when that happens and the streets rise up, he'll then be authorized to go in and quash those those few Black Lives Matter Marxists. 0.96

00:39:34.140 And the top will come down and unfortunately, it will come down on them and on us.

00:39:41.260 And that's the revolution without a shot fired.

00:39:45.360 That's exactly how it's happened with Marxists and communists over and over and over again in country after country in the 20th century.

00:39:55.480 Na, na, na, na, na.
