00:00:00.000 Well, hello, podcasters. Today's a great day to join us. Today, we start a little dark.
00:00:11.200 Would you say, Pat?
00:00:12.900 Just a tad. I mean, it's a tad dark.
00:00:15.340 Is there any interest in tracking down $7 billion or finding out if, you know, our people are in collusion with another government to throw democracy?
00:00:24.920 And is anybody in the media, do they really understand that democracy does die in darkness?
00:00:31.080 Because we know the Washington Post doesn't. We have a special tonight on this.
00:00:35.460 We're part two of our Ukraine special. It's at 8 p.m. Eastern.
00:00:40.080 Please join us. You watch it on YouTube or Facebook for free.
00:00:43.860 But we really ask that you would join us and become a member of the Blaze TV.
00:00:47.980 It's blazetv.com slash Glenn blazetv.com slash Glenn.
00:00:52.640 Use the promo code Glenn. You'll save $20 off of your subscription.
00:00:58.400 We also have, I mean, speaking of democracy dying in the darkness and the Washington Post, we have Todd McMurtry on.
00:01:06.180 He's the guy who has just argued the case that reopened the trial for Nick Sandman.
00:01:14.460 Nick Sandman is the guy, he's the kid that was, you know, there on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial with the Native American, what's his name, so-and-so Phillips, that was beating the drum in his face.
00:01:27.000 Remember that?
00:01:27.660 Mm-hmm.
00:01:27.880 You're listening to the best of the blend.
00:01:57.880 So I need a little pick-me-up, Stu, or Pat. I need something. I need something like Al Sharpton.
00:02:09.140 Did you hear Al Sharpton try to tell the story about Al Baghdadi?
00:02:16.220 I did.
00:02:17.180 You did?
00:02:17.760 I did.
00:02:18.240 Did you enjoy it as much as I did?
00:02:19.540 I very much enjoyed it.
00:02:20.660 So I thought we would lose this, because I'd like to get some of the heaviness off of the plate as I prepare for the special tonight.
00:02:28.780 Mm-hmm.
00:02:29.120 But let's just play that again. Could we please play the Al Baghdadi's audio?
00:02:37.060 President Trump said that because of the killing of Al Baghdadi, that the world is a better place. 0.93
00:02:47.020 And I would give credit to him and those that were responsible for it.
00:02:53.260 Mm-hmm.
00:02:53.900 But we have a lot of work that must still be done in the area of terrorism.
00:02:59.540 Yeah.
00:02:59.920 Right.
00:03:00.180 In the same area of the world where Al Baghdadi was, where Al Baghdadi, where Al Baghabones, Al was bagging groceries, Al was bagging Beyonce.
00:03:18.600 And let me ask you, why was Traffic Problems email sent to Bagabones?
00:03:26.140 Al Baghdadi.
00:03:31.420 Al Baghdadi.
00:03:35.420 Isn't it amazing?
00:03:36.900 How long have we been talking about Al Baghdadi?
00:03:39.900 Yeah.
00:03:40.040 It's 15, 10 years anyway.
00:03:42.220 Yeah, yeah.
00:03:42.860 Surely 10 years.
00:03:43.960 Now, I am a guy who butchers everybody's name.
00:03:47.140 Everybody's name.
00:03:48.660 But eventually you learn them.
00:03:50.540 But I am so happy Al Sharpton is out there to deflect.
00:03:55.540 Me too.
00:03:56.560 Wow.
00:03:58.320 And you know it's coming, too.
00:03:59.720 As soon as he comes to the name Al Baghdadi, no way he's getting that.
00:04:03.000 No.
00:04:03.380 No way.
00:04:04.420 No way.
00:04:05.180 No way.

00:07:11.920 It is the lyric, yes!
00:07:12.380 It is the hook of the song!
00:07:14.560 It's the main point of the song!
00:07:18.580 Crazy.
00:07:19.440 Ugh.
00:07:22.400 The best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:07:24.580 Hey, it's Glenn, and you're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:07:33.860 If you like what you're hearing on this show, make sure you check out Pat Gray Unleashed.
00:07:38.460 It's available wherever you download your favorite podcasts.
00:07:42.360 We go to the one, the only, Nick DiPaolo, comedian, host of the Nick DiPaolo Show.
00:07:47.620 You can find him at NickDip.com, NickDip.com.
00:07:53.500 That's where you can see his comedy special, and I warn you, it is battery acid on the PC.
00:08:02.120 It is, uh, woo!
00:08:04.660 Don't know how you're standing, but God bless you, Nick.
00:08:07.400 Actually, I'm not.
00:08:08.360 As you can see, I'm sitting.
00:08:09.600 Right.
00:08:09.900 It's been an exhausting fight.
00:08:12.840 As a white, straight male, it's a lot tougher.
00:08:16.540 Right.
00:08:17.120 Dave Chappelle just got the Mark Twain Award, which is our nation's highest honor for comedy, is it not?
00:08:24.360 Uh, I thought it was the Kathy Griffin Award, which was the highest.
00:08:29.880 Well, no, I don't think.
00:08:31.500 I think that used to be in the last administration.
00:08:34.040 Uh, so, so he just won this, and here's what he said, and I can't believe the guy who is standing at the Kennedy Center
00:08:43.180 to be able to get the Mark Twain Award in today's climate is asked about PC, and here's what he says.
00:08:52.320 The political correctness has its face, its place, excuse me.
00:08:56.680 We all want to live in a polite society.
00:08:58.600 We just have to kind of work on the levels and come to an agreement of what that actually looks like.
00:09:03.000 I personally am not afraid of other people's freedom of expression.
00:09:06.060 I don't use it as a weapon.
00:09:07.380 It just makes me feel better, and I'm sorry if I hurt anybody, et cetera, et cetera, yadda, yadda, yadda, everything I'm supposed to say.
00:09:13.780 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:09:17.920 Okay, so now, let me take you to Saturday Night Live and a clip that aired this, I know, I know.
00:09:25.180 A clip that aired this weekend.
00:09:27.420 Listen to this.
00:09:28.920 Yeah, at first I thought Kanye was losing his mind, and now I feel like he's fine.
00:09:32.920 He's just turning into an old white lady. 1.00
00:09:36.000 I mean, he used to be like one of the coolest black dudes on Earth.
00:09:38.460 Now he's showing up to events in sweatpants and orthopedic sneakers, listening to Kenny G and trying to get black people to like Trump. 0.70
00:09:45.840 It was like, how long before this guy changed his name to Kathy?
00:09:49.860 Now you might think that I'm crazy, but about five years ago, there was a fella named Bruce Jenner, and he moved to Calabasas.
00:10:04.480 There's a, there's no joke there.
00:10:06.480 So it's not funny.
00:10:08.720 It's horribly delivered.
00:10:10.760 He's in trouble.
00:10:11.700 Is it because it was on, I don't know, NBC, and they're supposed to be so woke?
00:10:17.440 Or is it because that's just a bad comedian?
00:10:20.780 He's not a bad comedian, actually.
00:10:23.360 Bad delivery.
00:10:25.140 Well, when you don't ask an hour we can update, you have writers.
00:10:29.420 I don't know if he wrote that himself.
00:10:30.820 He's delivering somebody else's stuff.
00:10:32.900 But every time we get near the LGBT or trans, it's a big deal. 1.00
00:10:38.140 I want that answer, you know, the Bilderberg group.
00:10:42.580 Is that made up of eight gay guys?
00:10:44.960 Why is it such an issue?
00:10:47.700 No, I'm asking.
00:10:48.680 I'm dead serious.
00:10:49.900 And if you think it's tough for Dave Chappelle or Michael Shade to do that stuff, try being a 57-year-old white guy.
00:10:57.640 No, I can't imagine.
00:10:59.840 I really, I say this with great admiration for your talent.
00:11:04.560 I mean, I know who you are.
00:11:06.540 I know who you've written for.
00:11:08.120 I know your career.
00:11:10.020 And for you to be standing is remarkable.
00:11:15.020 I mean, I honestly feel like I should do you a favor and never talk about you on the air.
00:11:20.140 Because I'm bringing attention to you.
00:11:23.240 I know it's, I mean, I kind of feel bad because I know there's somebody out there going, oh, oh, he's still saying these things, that damn white guy.
00:11:33.120 And they'll go after you.
00:11:34.940 Yeah.
00:11:35.480 But if you're the, if you're the guy that started saying them first, you do get a little credibility.
00:11:41.460 I was saying this stuff on Tough Crowd in 2000 and, you know, making fun of how white guys are portrayed in commercials in 1995.
00:11:52.020 I was ahead of the curve.
00:11:53.480 But because I look like I'm from Palermo, nobody pays attention to me.
00:11:57.220 You do look a little like you could be in a mob movie.
00:12:01.620 Let me just tell you this, Glenn.
00:12:03.240 These gay jokes. 1.00
00:12:04.660 Is that going to bring your son back to me?
00:12:06.320 So what is, what is the problem between transsexuals, the transgender and, uh, and gay people?
00:12:15.800 Why do they not get along?
00:12:17.600 Well, I was in a bathhouse in San Francisco for like two hours last weekend and I couldn't figure it out.
00:12:22.860 I have no idea.
00:12:25.400 Because they really don't.
00:12:27.000 I mean, Dave Chappelle even talks about it.
00:12:28.900 Once the T gets into the car, the L's and the G's, they don't like it. 0.99
00:12:34.560 It's like the Jews and the Palestinians, the Middle East. 1.00
00:12:38.420 It's, uh, it's, it's, it's so, it's convoluted.
00:12:41.260 I read these articles on my show.
00:12:43.040 I can't make heads or tail.
00:12:45.280 Uh, I should say tails.
00:12:47.120 Uh, who's upset at who for what?
00:12:50.120 The, I think the gays are saying the trannies had given us a bad rep. 1.00
00:12:55.120 Trannies. 1.00
00:12:55.600 First of all, that's 1970.
00:12:57.140 Uh, transgender people are giving us a bad. 1.00
00:13:00.940 It's, I don't know.
00:13:02.200 I have heard.
00:13:02.600 I still like women, Glenn. 1.00
00:13:04.140 What can I tell you?
00:13:04.980 I've heard from, from gay friends who will say, this is just, that just goes to, this
00:13:09.700 just goes too far.
00:13:11.140 Just goes too far.
00:13:12.780 Well, wait.
00:13:13.700 What does?
00:13:14.460 I agree if we're talking about, you know, sending them into our libraries and having them.
00:13:19.000 I don't want anybody talking that even makes kids think about sex.
00:13:23.200 I don't want hot women going in and reading to my son. 1.00
00:13:27.160 You just stop it.
00:13:28.080 Just stop it.
00:13:28.740 Um, he's got enough on his plate.
00:13:32.320 Please just stop it.
00:13:33.500 However, when it comes to, I don't understand if you're saying, and I am, everybody should
00:13:38.940 just be who they are.
00:13:40.280 I don't care.
00:13:41.660 I don't care.
00:13:42.720 If that's who you want to be, I don't understand how the gay community could have a problem with
00:13:49.960 that.
00:13:51.940 Well, I just did a story on like the, having drag queens put on shows for middle, middle, 0.99
00:13:58.740 uh, student.
00:14:00.060 Yeah.
00:14:00.460 No, I, no, no, no, no.
00:14:01.320 I have a problem with that because I have a problem because that is true.
00:14:04.920 Well, that's who the trans are. 1.00
00:14:06.340 That's what they do.
00:14:07.600 And, um, all of them, they go to middle schools.
00:14:10.420 Every one of them, I took a poll.
00:14:12.600 Really?
00:14:13.760 The Quinniac poll said 99.9%.
00:14:17.740 I didn't know that.
00:14:19.560 I didn't know that.
00:14:20.100 It's a great, great way to meet kids.
00:14:21.800 Okay.
00:14:22.380 Again, I kid.
00:14:23.480 Relax, Glenn.
00:14:24.220 I can see you turning rhetoric.
00:14:25.720 No, I'm, no, I'm not.
00:14:27.120 Uh, okay.
00:14:27.700 So let me, let me go to the Democrats.
00:14:31.180 Yesterday, yesterday, they.
00:14:33.580 I'd hang with a, I'd hang with a transgender community before I'd hang with the Democrats.
00:14:38.740 And, oh my gosh, I would, I would have them all move in with me before, before that.
00:14:44.020 Uh, so the Democrats voted on something.
00:14:47.300 We're not really even sure what it is.
00:14:48.820 The impeachment resolution, but it really doesn't do anything.
00:14:53.620 Um, what are your thoughts on, on what happened yesterday?
00:14:57.200 But you make a great praise about a point about the process.
00:15:00.840 I'm watching, like you said, they voted on this thing, but nothing moves forward.
00:15:05.080 And you wonder why nothing gets done in Washington.
00:15:08.320 But even I know, I'm not a legal scholar, obviously, but you, you, you can't be doing
00:15:13.900 all this behind closed doors.
00:15:15.660 The, the Republicans want to see the, uh, I guess there was some testimony, some witnesses
00:15:20.600 yesterday and, and Schiff wanted me to let them look at that.
00:15:23.880 And, and until I know who the original whistleblower was, um, this is all a sham.
00:15:30.080 Um, and, uh, yeah, you know, Schiff, Schiff said yesterday, um, he told the witness, the
00:15:36.780 GOP asked a question apparently, and Schiff said, don't answer that.
00:15:41.560 Well, wait, what's he a lawyer now?
00:15:43.400 He's representing these people?
00:15:45.360 Apparently, apparently.
00:15:47.300 I mean, it's, it's amazing what's going on.
00:15:50.240 And, and I tell you, that's why people think this is a coup.
00:15:53.640 If you can't put it out in the open, it's, it feels like a coup.
00:16:00.660 Well, they're going to televise it eventually, aren't they?
00:16:03.120 They said it's going to be on TV before Thanksgiving.
00:16:06.880 So I don't know what'll make me sick of the Detroit Lions offense or Adam Schiff on my TV.
00:16:12.500 I think I would go for the, uh, Adam Schiff and go for Adam Schiff.
00:16:17.280 Uh, there's another story out today.
00:16:19.320 We haven't had a chance to get to former president Barack Obama derided woke political purists
00:16:26.160 and Twitter activists in a speech given Tuesday at the Obama foundation summit in Chicago.
00:16:33.640 This idea of purity and you're never compromised and you're politically woke and all of that
00:16:39.620 stuff.
00:16:40.060 You should get over that quickly.
00:16:42.500 That's funny coming from a guy who actually is behind the deep state and the guy that
00:16:49.260 spied on Trump while he was running for president.
00:16:52.580 You can't be more woke than that.
00:16:54.700 So I don't know.
00:16:55.700 Is that ever going to come out?
00:16:57.100 Glenn is Devin Nunez and Gowdy and all these guys, uh, Lindsey Graham who talk a big game.
00:17:03.700 Are they ever going to do anything?
00:17:05.580 So, you know what they say to me, cause I I've talked to a few of the people on Capitol
00:17:08.940 Hill and they have said to me, Glenn, you know, how do we, how do we,
00:17:12.480 we phrase this?
00:17:13.180 How do we, we know what's going on, but how do we do this in a soundbite?
00:17:17.240 Here's how is it against the national interest to have somebody look into the loss of $7 billion
00:17:24.160 of your tax dollars?
00:17:25.920 Is it in the national interest for the president to ask somebody to look into our governmental
00:17:32.160 corruption, our foreign agents directly influencing the 2016 election politicians in the U S colluding
00:17:39.860 with a foreign government to steal from the American treasury.
00:17:42.920 Is it in our national interest to have the unlawful use of U S ambassadors, embassy personnel, national
00:17:50.160 intelligence agencies, the state department in collusion with foreign agencies and NGOs
00:17:56.000 to not only affect the election, but to steal billions of dollars from us.
00:18:01.920 That's how, that's how you phrase this.
00:18:04.120 Well, all due respect, what scared me most about that statement is when you said they came
00:18:08.680 to you and asked you for advice.
00:18:10.380 No, they didn't.
00:18:11.180 No, no, no, no.
00:18:11.700 That's what you said, Glenn.
00:18:12.900 That's exactly what you said.
00:18:14.260 I said, I'm getting nervous.
00:18:16.060 America heard.
00:18:16.600 That's what America heard.
00:18:17.580 I heard Nixon used to go to Casey Kasem to get his geopolitical shit.
00:18:21.800 Shut up. 0.95
00:18:23.220 Nick DiPaolo from nickdip.com back in just a second.
00:18:25.960 First, so Nick DiPaolo is here.
00:18:29.820 Nick, how many times a year are you out on the road?
00:18:34.860 That's a great question.
00:18:35.980 I would say two times.
00:18:36.860 I would say 25.
00:18:38.680 Yeah.
00:18:39.180 Where, where are you out recently?
00:18:40.320 Where, where can people see you?
00:18:41.900 They can see me Friday and Saturday, November 8th and 9th, the Kansas City Comedy Club.
00:18:48.380 And the following weekend, the Cortland Repertory Theater in Cortland, New York, November 15th.
00:18:54.680 And November 16th, the comedy work, Saratoga Springs.
00:18:59.280 And I have to mention this.
00:19:01.220 I'm, I'm finally doing some gigs in my new home state of Georgia.
00:19:05.040 Oh, you are?
00:19:05.400 Which is, yes.
00:19:06.280 You're at Yuck Yucks or Milk Through Your Nose?
00:19:08.800 Oh, no.
00:19:09.580 I'm at Skid Marks.
00:19:11.160 No.
00:19:12.980 November 22nd.
00:19:14.780 You're way off, Glenn.
00:19:15.600 This is the historic Ritz Theater.
00:19:17.860 Oh, wow.
00:19:18.300 That's Friday, November 22nd.
00:19:19.740 Saturday, November 23rd, the Tiff Theater in Tifton, Georgia.
00:19:24.860 And I can't wait.
00:19:26.580 There'll be a lot of trucker hats and tobacco, hopefully.
00:19:29.300 Have you ever played the Roxy in, I'm trying to remember where it is in Pennsylvania.
00:19:32.560 It's the first, it's the original Roxy Theater.
00:19:34.980 I did a, I did a show there once and they used an arc spotlight.
00:19:41.540 I mean, when I say it's the original, it hasn't changed since it was open.
00:19:45.340 And they used an arc spotlight.
00:19:48.220 And so it was, you know, an arc light.
00:19:50.520 It was burning carbon to light.
00:19:53.300 And it was like the surface of the sun hot.
00:19:56.420 It was like somebody was holding a giant magnifying glass on the sun.
00:20:00.380 I thought it was going to set me on fire.
00:20:02.440 That's how all the lights are, all these places.
00:20:05.380 And so I have a line every time.
00:20:06.940 I use it every time.
00:20:07.820 I go, hey, easy with the lights.
00:20:09.460 What am I, a pot plant?
00:20:10.960 It is.
00:20:13.240 It is.
00:20:14.160 And then the sensitive light guy turns it all the way down so I'm in the dark.
00:20:17.600 Well, halfway through my show, the, you know, the, it's carbon that's burning.
00:20:21.780 And so halfway through the show, it went out.
00:20:26.020 It went out just, and then I went, oh, thank God.
00:20:28.820 And the guy said, just a minute.
00:20:31.840 He put another one in and lit it back up.
00:20:35.820 It was crazy.
00:20:37.060 And the show was much funnier.
00:20:39.240 It was.
00:20:40.000 I was at the last theater I was at.
00:20:42.180 They wouldn't let me smoke.
00:20:44.340 And I said, are you kidding me?
00:20:45.740 I'm sitting in a, on a broken ladder in the green room with paint buckets around me.
00:20:50.060 A fuse box with white.
00:20:52.140 And there's literally asbestos dripping in my Diet Coke.
00:20:55.060 And the guy goes, you can't smoke in here.
00:20:57.500 I said, what are you kidding?
00:20:58.520 You guys were shooting porn in this theater like three days ago, but I can't have a cigarette.
00:21:04.360 There's a, there's a new thing going on now.
00:21:08.460 And I just saw this yesterday.
00:21:10.020 Have you seen the OK Boomer stuff? 0.64
00:21:12.840 No, I have not.
00:21:13.920 Okay.
00:21:14.120 So there's, there's this new, it's a generational war, Nick.
00:21:18.120 Uh, and there's this new, uh, thing going on online and also on products.
00:21:24.240 It says, okay, Boomer, have a terrible day or whatever.
00:21:28.720 And it's the, uh, the millennials taking on the boomers and everybody's immediately going, 0.67
00:21:36.520 oh, look, they're just going, there's the end.
00:21:39.020 I got to tell you, most boomers despise millennials and have no problem saying it out loud.
00:21:45.200 It's not like the, the millennials are starting this.
00:21:48.200 They're just getting into the game.
00:21:50.060 Yeah.
00:21:50.760 They finally realized that they can push this such, not all of them.
00:21:55.380 I sort of think they get a bad rep, the millennials, but they are pretty soft. 1.00
00:21:59.880 They, but they do get a bad rep.
00:22:01.760 But, uh, now I see that 70% of them wouldn't have a problem with socialism in this country.
00:22:07.520 So now I hate every one of them and, uh, I, I will push back.
00:22:13.940 I might be 57.
00:22:15.100 I've had 14 shoulder operations, right?
00:22:17.540 I will take on Michael Shea and his, you know what?
00:22:20.920 I think that the ones that I meet and not all of them, but the ones that I have met,
00:22:25.080 I've, I meet a lot of them who are, where are you hanging out?
00:22:28.900 It's creeping me out.
00:22:29.760 I'm not, I'm not, I'm not going to say, uh, at least at this time and not under oath.
00:22:36.020 Um, the, uh, uh, the thing that I see in millennials is that when you, when you stop talking the usual 0.96
00:22:45.220 political bull crap, right.
00:22:48.340 They listen and they want to learn.
00:22:51.540 Not, not all of them, obviously, but they want to learn.
00:22:54.280 They've never heard this stuff before.
00:22:57.700 That's right.
00:22:58.680 Yeah.
00:22:58.840 Nobody's teaching them anything.
00:23:00.440 Nobody's teaching them how to even think.
00:23:02.540 They're just being taught what to think.
00:23:04.340 And they know that's crap.
00:23:06.380 Some of them do.
00:23:07.640 And, uh, but you're right.
00:23:09.020 Right.
00:23:09.440 When did I get the pre-K from pre-K to college, they're being brainwashed with this left wing, uh, horse crap. 0.79
00:23:16.940 Uh, so yeah, some of them do enjoy to hear the truth, but, uh, were you, were you any different?
00:23:23.520 Nick, were you any different?
00:23:24.280 I was very different.
00:23:25.360 Were you?
00:23:26.080 Yeah.
00:23:26.440 I was, I was transgender in 1976.
00:23:29.760 Really?
00:23:30.320 I was breaking the mold up.
00:23:31.720 University of Maine.
00:23:33.480 No, I, uh, I must've been different.
00:23:36.720 I grew up in Boston.
00:23:38.420 I went to school, university of Maine.
00:23:40.480 And then I've spent the last 25 years in LA and New York.
00:23:43.880 And I have these attitudes, like I grew up in Birmingham, Alabama.
00:23:47.100 So I guess I am different.
00:23:48.560 I have to tell you though, when I was 30 before I so literally sobered up and realized, I don't know anything.
00:23:56.860 I'm an idiot.
00:23:59.040 Oh, what were you, what were you drinking when you, uh, well, I made you so numb to what was going on.
00:24:04.620 Well, maker's mark.
00:24:05.420 I can do some of that now.
00:24:06.300 So it was, I know, I wasted.
00:24:07.940 Oh, maker's mark.
00:24:08.880 Maker's mark and, uh, Jack Daniels.
00:24:10.780 It was great.
00:24:11.480 Holy moly.
00:24:12.480 Yeah, no, it was great.
00:24:13.580 And you still have a nice head of hair and you look healthy.
00:24:15.720 I know.
00:24:16.400 It's, it's unbelievable.
00:24:18.360 I'm probably dead in 15 minutes, but, uh, it was.
00:24:21.400 No, I can tell.
00:24:22.360 It was.
00:24:22.640 You have a nice pal.
00:24:23.780 Well, actually you do look like dead Kennedy.
00:24:25.860 It was circa five years ago.
00:24:27.420 All right.
00:24:27.720 I don't think we need to go there.
00:24:30.520 Uh, uh, Nick, Nick DiPaolo.
00:24:33.060 You can find him online at nickdipp.com.
00:24:36.500 Watch his comedy special.
00:24:38.440 Uh, it is, uh, it is very raw and very funny.

00:24:43.680 Appreciate it.

00:25:23.400 Todd McMurtry is an experienced trial attorney.
00:25:27.720 Harvard trained mediator.
00:25:30.160 He's an active member of the board of governors for the Kentucky Bar Association.
00:25:36.480 He's formerly the president of the Northern Kentucky Bar Association.
00:25:40.280 Board member of the Northern Kentucky Volunteer Lawyers.
00:25:44.440 This guy looks to be a guy I wouldn't want to see across for me if I were the Washington Post.
00:25:53.160 But he is here to tell us exactly what happened on Monday in the Nick Sandman case against the Washington Post.
00:26:00.100 Todd, welcome to the program.
00:26:03.180 Glenn, good to be here.
00:26:04.280 Thank you.
00:26:04.880 Thank you.
00:26:05.200 So why did the judge throw this away, throw this out in the first place in July?
00:26:11.400 The judge's initial ruling on the case suggested that he said that everything that the Washington Post had published was basically an opinion or not related to Nick Sandman.
00:26:27.340 And so when there were statements like the students were mocking, he said that's not related to Nick Sandman.
00:26:34.560 When Nathan Phillips, when the Post reported that Nathan Phillips said I was blocked and they prevented me from retreating, the judge said that that was an opinion.
00:26:44.080 And so what we did, and my co-counsel in this case is Lynn Wood out of Atlanta.
00:26:48.920 Lynn and I looked at this and we said that there was some opportunity here to provide some additional information that might change the judge's thinking.
00:26:58.200 So we did that.
00:26:59.300 We provided some additional video which showed more fully what happened.
00:27:02.660 We provided statements about Nathan Phillips being basically a professional protester and a provocateur, and we said that the Washington Post should not have taken his statements at face value, that he was an unreliable person, and that they negligently republished a false factual narrative.
00:27:21.120 And that was persuasive.
00:27:24.100 The court's order came out just the other day, and we're off to a conference on December 3rd to push the case ahead.
00:27:32.660 Well, how can somebody say that, well, he wasn't talking about Nick Sandman when he became the face of it?
00:27:40.420 For instance, if I say, you know, the brave protesters in Tiananmen Square, I don't mean just the guy who stood in front of the tank, but he's the guy we all think of.
00:27:51.760 Now, we didn't see his face.
00:27:53.940 We don't know his identity, but they've concentrated on his face.
00:27:58.820 He is the face.
00:28:00.240 The civil rights movement wasn't only Martin Luther King, but Martin Luther King was the image that we saw all the time.
00:28:07.960 So how can this not be defamation of him?
00:28:12.100 Well, it is defamation, and the court, with regard to some of those statements, is going to allow us to proceed.
00:28:20.920 With regard to the others, we don't agree with the court's ruling in every aspect, and that's why the judge struck some of those statements.
00:28:28.620 So that's an issue we'll have to address later.
00:28:30.440 I would agree with you.
00:28:31.760 I think there's good law that says that you're right and I'm right.
00:28:34.900 But right now, we're just happy to be proceeding with the case.
00:28:38.400 Does it help, Todd, that the – well, I don't know about the Washington Post, but other outlets, I know, even after they found out who Phillips was, they dismissed all of that and still tried to make Nick look like the bad kid?
00:28:52.660 Correct.
00:28:55.500 Correct.
00:28:56.400 It does help with the other cases because the same analysis would apply, and we went into the other lawsuits and amended those to make them similar to the Washington Post case, which the judge is now not dismissed.
00:29:10.240 And so we would expect that we'll get the same result, but we'll see.
00:29:13.320 And you're right, I mean, plenty of other news outlets – I mean, the Washington Post has issued an editor's note on some of their reporting, but CNN and NBC have never retracted, so we have seen that problem as well.
00:29:28.160 How confident are you in this case?
00:29:32.220 Because this case could really change reporting, I think, in a good way.
00:29:37.660 You know, they all had the same access that I had and others had, and they wanted this story to be true, and so they made it true.
00:29:47.440 How confident are you, and what do you think the ramifications will be if you win?
00:29:55.040 Well, we're, of course, confident.
00:29:56.980 We're all investing an enormous amount of time and effort into this case, and we wouldn't do that if we didn't feel that we had a legitimate, strong case.
00:30:04.340 I think that the case, when it's ultimately presented to a jury, is going to be very persuasive, even with the limitations that the court has placed on some of our allegations.
00:30:14.440 And with regard to the effect that this case could have, well, it could protect people like Nicholas Sandman, who are private figures from being attacked and ravaged by the media in the way that he was by basically sending out a strong warning that if you're going to attack minors or private individuals
00:30:32.780 and use them as a tool in a debate or a culture war, an attack on a president, whatever it may be, that you better think twice.
00:30:41.920 So we certainly would hope that we can generate change in the process of bringing these lawsuits.
00:30:47.500 What's Nick's life been like since this?
00:30:49.740 Well, Nick was 16 and a junior in high school when this happened.
00:30:57.160 He's now 17, and he's a senior in high school.
00:31:00.760 I mean, his time at school is going well, but there's no doubt that there have been, you know, many things that have happened to him over the past 10 months or so that have been very negative.
00:31:11.760 And there's no doubt that when a person like Nick Sandman goes out in public, people know who he is.
00:31:17.020 Everywhere I've been with him, people know who he is.
00:31:19.800 And so he's, you know, constantly concerned about running into the wrong person out there.
00:31:25.300 So what is his college?
00:31:26.840 An unfortunate fact.
00:31:28.280 What is his college admittance going to be like?
00:31:31.300 What is his life on a college campus in today's world going to be like?
00:31:34.920 Well, my son's a little bit older than Nick, and he, two years ago, had a plate of french fries thrown on him for wearing a Make America Great Again hat at his college.
00:31:47.440 I would think that college life for a person with that reputation is going to be a challenge.
00:31:54.080 As for college admissions, we don't know.
00:31:56.020 He's applying.
00:31:56.860 We'll see how that goes.
00:31:58.760 Todd, we wish you well.
00:31:59.940 How are the cases against NBC and CNN and others going?
00:32:07.440 Those cases are currently pending on motions to dismiss, and we're just in the briefing process of those.
00:32:13.200 We've substantially completed that, so I think everything's in front of the judge now.
00:32:16.620 He'll be issuing a ruling that we hope will be favorable for the same reasons that the Washington Post recent ruling was favorable.
00:32:23.780 Our prayers are with you.
00:32:24.940 Thank you so much, Todd, and best to the Sandmans.
00:32:28.520 Appreciate it.
00:32:29.120 Glenn, thank you so much.

00:32:33.120 You can follow him or find him at toddmcmurtrylaw.com.
00:32:39.020 Is it the Sandmans, or is it the Sandmen?
00:32:43.220 It's the Sandmans.
00:32:45.160 Did I say this?
00:32:46.220 No, I'm just wondering.
00:32:47.380 You said the Sandmans. 0.75
00:32:48.520 I was thinking maybe it should be Sandmen.
00:32:50.620 No, I don't think that's the way it works exactly, but thank you for that.
00:32:55.980 All right.
00:32:56.580 Thank you for that tip.
00:32:58.040 I appreciate it.
00:32:58.900 Happy to help.
00:33:02.440 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:33:22.860 Okay, so I'm going to play a couple of pieces of audio for you from the same day.
00:33:27.680 Here's former President Obama dismissing the woke culture as politically ineffective.
00:33:34.720 Listen.
00:33:35.840 This idea of purity and you're never compromised and you're always politically woke and all that stuff.
00:33:43.320 You should get over that quickly.
00:33:45.120 The world is messy.
00:33:46.680 There are ambiguities.
00:33:51.820 People who do really good stuff have flaws.
00:33:56.400 Like if I tweet or hashtag about how you didn't do something right or use the word wrong verb or then I can sit back and feel pretty good about myself because, man, you see how woke I was?
00:34:09.920 I called you out.
00:34:10.520 You know, that's not that's not activism.
00:34:18.960 That's not bringing about change.
00:34:20.560 Oh, really?
00:34:22.960 Huh.
00:34:23.920 Coming from him, that's pretty interesting.
00:34:25.840 Well, he's kind of in the hot seat now because he wasn't pure enough.
00:34:29.820 Uh-huh.
00:34:30.660 Right.
00:34:31.160 The group of people that he first corralled realized that he was not a true believer.
00:34:38.500 So he betrayed the revolution.
00:34:40.440 He's only like 80% Marxist.
00:34:42.820 Yeah.
00:34:43.280 He had a few tendencies that led him down the wrong road.
00:34:47.160 Okay, so Obama, talking about activism, says you got to stop with a woke culture because it's politically ineffective.
00:34:55.320 And then Michelle Obama says this.
00:34:58.580 I can't make people not afraid of black people. 1.00
00:35:02.180 I don't know what's going on.
00:35:03.880 I can't explain what's happening in your head.
00:35:06.280 But maybe if I show up every day as a human, a good human, doing wonderful things, loving my family, loving your kids, taking care of things that I care about, maybe, just maybe, that work will pick away at the scabs of your discrimination.
00:35:25.700 She's flat out racist. 0.98
00:35:27.960 That's racist.
00:35:28.940 Well, wait a minute.
00:35:31.980 What do you mean you can't?
00:35:32.780 Wait a minute.
00:35:33.180 Wait a minute.
00:35:33.880 I can't make people not afraid of white people. 1.00
00:35:37.420 I don't know what's going on.
00:35:38.720 I can't explain what's happening in your head.
00:35:40.540 But maybe if I show up every day as a human, a good human, doing good things, loving your kids, well, maybe, just maybe, that will work to pick away at the scabs of your discrimination.
00:35:54.560 See, I think this works both ways.
00:35:56.620 It does.
00:35:57.080 I think it works both ways.
00:35:58.980 I, you know, I can't, I can't make people not afraid of black people. 1.00
00:36:03.460 Well, yeah, you can, you can, you can help, you can help by not attacking all white people, by not saying that all white people are bad, by not saying, and, and, and being more like your husband was saying, but not necessarily doing.
00:36:21.960 But like your husband said, you know, every time you make a mistake, it doesn't mean you're a bad person.
00:36:26.780 It just makes you feel better.
00:36:28.720 But it doesn't make, it doesn't help anything.
00:36:30.940 It doesn't help anything.
00:36:32.060 So you reuse the wrong term.
00:36:34.600 You don't understand.
00:36:35.720 If you're wanting to be a good human, you're like, hey, dude, that's cool.
00:36:40.360 I mean, I understand.
00:36:41.100 But that, that's, that word is like 1950.
00:36:46.000 So, you know, without any kind of accusation, without anything else, just be cool with one, with one another.
00:36:56.080 And the same thing goes with white people towards black people.
00:36:59.980 But right now we are in reverse discrimination.
00:37:04.600 And even that is proof of it.
00:37:08.260 Because you're saying there is no such thing as reverse discrimination because of the hierarchy.
00:37:14.700 It doesn't make any sense.
00:37:17.080 It doesn't make any sense.
00:37:18.520 Because if we all are created equal and we're all the same, then you should, two wrongs don't make a right.
00:37:30.980 But maybe that's, maybe that's just me.
00:37:36.160 Here is Bloomberg on the Democratic primary field.
00:37:40.220 So this.
00:37:41.260 It's just X number of months later, nothing's changed.
00:37:44.260 You know, I have my reservations about the people running and the way they're campaigning and the promises they're making that they can't fulfill and their unwillingness to really admit what they, what is possible and what isn't.
00:38:01.240 And their inconsistency from day to day and location to location.
00:38:06.700 This is not the ways to run a railroad.
00:38:08.740 This country is in real trouble.
00:38:10.720 We need somebody to pull people together.
00:38:12.600 And when they say, I'm not going to talk to somebody from across the aisle, this is our country.
00:38:19.760 What do you mean you're not going to talk to somebody from across the aisle?
00:38:22.500 We've got to work together.
00:38:24.260 And I don't see that.
00:38:27.500 What a uniter.
00:38:28.780 What a uniter.
00:38:29.540 And I love the way he talks about, you know, there's no way to run a railroad.
00:38:32.640 Last politician that talked about the railroads working was Mussolini.
00:38:36.180 But I digress.
00:38:39.280 Listen to this.
00:38:40.020 Here's a reporter talking about how Trump is actually a recruitment agent for ISIS.
00:38:44.760 Listen to this.
00:38:45.900 He's a recruiting sergeant for ISIS, Chris, in so many ways.
00:38:49.000 Tony mentioned the whole oil argument, which has obviously been a narrative for a long time.
00:38:52.820 He also is someone who is an Islamophobe, which obviously helps groups like ISIS recruit disillusioned, angry young men from across the world, not just from across the Middle East.
00:39:00.640 He's been featured in ISIS recruiting videos, and his Muslim ban has definitely been a recruiting ad for ISIS. 0.93
00:39:07.320 So in many ways, he helps, quote, unquote, the enemy.
00:39:11.100 Okay.
00:39:11.520 Now, how is it that it is our presence in the Middle East that is the recruiting arm of ISIS?
00:39:21.560 Our presence there makes them want to go fight us.
00:39:26.780 So here you have a president who just doesn't just say, I'm going to get out of the Middle East, actually has been shutting things down actively.
00:39:36.960 And he's the recruiting person.
00:39:39.440 He's he's like, get the hell out of there.
00:39:41.620 I don't want anything to do with it.
00:39:42.980 It's a really good point.
00:39:43.940 I mean, how is that possible?
00:39:46.380 And by the way, a recruit, a recruiting poster, he's the guy he people want to join ISIS because we almost wiped all of them out.
00:39:57.520 Yeah, I want to sign up because the bombs are coming now.
00:40:01.000 Yeah.
00:40:01.440 And it's not like they weren't they weren't pissed at us before, but now they are.
00:40:05.260 Now they are.
00:40:05.700 Now they are because because Trump said some colorful things about the way one of them died.
00:40:10.800 Oh, I can't take that.
00:40:12.060 I can't take that.
00:40:12.840 I cannot take the fact.
00:40:15.040 Of course, he said that.
00:40:16.720 Of course, he said that.
00:40:18.680 And of course, I mean, did anybody really think that al-Baghdadi was doing that?
00:40:24.940 Why did why did President Bush always call Saddam Hussein Saddam?
00:40:33.300 The first President Bush.
00:40:34.960 Yeah.
00:40:35.320 Right.
00:40:36.000 I think that was H.W., wasn't it?
00:40:38.120 Well, they both.
00:40:39.080 I think they both did it.
00:40:40.740 George W.
00:40:41.020 I know, too.
00:40:41.600 George H.W. did, but I think it was both of them.
00:40:44.380 It seems to me that that was an insult.
00:40:47.000 It's an insult.
00:40:48.060 Yeah.
00:40:48.440 Saddam Hussein is an insult. 0.99
00:40:50.640 It's Saddam Hussein. 0.81
00:40:52.400 So it wasn't because I remember people going, he doesn't even know how to pronounce the name.
00:40:56.460 He did it intentionally.
00:40:59.060 What do you think that he was whimpering?
00:41:02.320 He died like a dog in a tunnel.
00:41:05.360 A coward.
00:41:06.340 He's making fun of dogs.
00:41:08.240 No, he's not.
00:41:09.480 Oh, my gosh.
00:41:13.540 Jeez.
00:41:15.580 He's sowing the seeds of doubt.
00:41:18.360 And I love the fact that the press was like, well, we went to the Pentagon to find out if there was any footage of that.
00:41:24.000 And he's crying.
00:41:24.660 Now, the latest is Jimmy Kimmel.
00:41:27.780 Jimmy Kimmel came out on Monday and the White House is now asking for an apology.
00:41:32.100 Well, he just flat out lied.
00:41:33.160 Lied. 0.99
00:41:33.520 Made it up.
00:41:35.480 Yeah, he said, basically, he said the president was out golfing and he wasn't even there.
00:41:40.700 He wasn't even there.
00:41:41.580 And they didn't tell him because they were afraid that he was going to tweet about it.
00:41:46.440 No, Jimmy.
00:41:47.260 No, he was there.
00:41:48.260 He was there.
00:41:48.720 He actually went as far as to say as that those pictures of President Trump watching it, that that was a photo op.
00:41:57.600 That was a set up photo taken later.
00:42:01.300 Wow.
00:42:01.900 I mean, they didn't say anything about Barack Obama literally, verifiably, going upstairs and playing cards with an intern because he couldn't watch what was going on when they were killing Osama bin Laden.
00:42:17.280 He would come down from time to time and then he'd be like, oh, I can't watch this.
00:42:21.020 And so he would go upstairs and play cards.
00:42:25.040 Yeah, with his basketball buddy.
00:42:27.160 Yeah, was it basketball buddy?
00:42:28.400 Yeah.
00:42:28.500 I knew it was somebody who was like, uh-huh, you went up and played cards.
00:42:33.920 Your troops are on the line and you're playing cards because you're such a girl. 1.00
00:42:40.120 And I, no offense to 12-year-old girls because most 12-year-old girls could handle what they were seeing in the situation room.
00:42:48.360 So I don't mean 12-year-old girls, maybe eight-year-old girls.
00:42:52.700 Because after all, isn't that the little pink bike and the helmet that he was, gosh, he was such an embarrassment.
