The Glenn Beck Program - Best of The Program ｜ Guests： Nigel Farage, Christopher Rufo, & Oscar Izaguirre Jr. ｜ 6⧸12⧸20

00:00:00.960 Hey, it's Glenn. Thank you so much for listening today. We've got a great podcast coming from the Standing Rock Ranch today.

00:00:07.440 We start with, well, we start with the news of the day, which I could only make sense of if I was just hammered.

00:00:15.320 So we have a little bit of drunk news that begins the show that you don't want to miss.

00:00:19.800 Also, Volkswagen says, therefore, humanity, they didn't mean to make this mistake in their commercial,

00:00:25.480 which is ridiculous that they were even apologizing, but you won't believe what they said.

00:00:30.780 Now, remember, it's Volkswagen, you know, the car designed by Hitler, but they're really, really super sorry, and they're on your side. 0.92

00:00:40.280 Also, we have Nigel Farage. He is the Brexit Party leader.

00:00:48.000 He called me yesterday because he was fired from his radio gig for saying something in Great Britain that I said the same day.

00:00:57.020 He's right about it. We'll talk to him about that.

00:00:59.900 Also, what's happening up in Seattle?

00:01:02.460 CNN and the mainstream media saying, no, this is, I'm not kidding.

00:01:07.400 These are poetry readings that are happening at the Chaz.

00:01:10.940 Really? Poetry readings? Huh.

00:01:14.620 And we have no evidence that Antifa is involved at all.

00:01:19.180 Well, except for their own tweets, the pictures, et cetera, et cetera.

00:01:22.980 We get into that and so much more on today's podcast.

00:01:33.040 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:01:37.080 Okay, I've found a way to bring you the news to where it makes sense.

00:01:46.540 And if this news doesn't make sense, you haven't had enough to drink.

00:01:51.640 We start with Audrey Gilman.

00:01:55.080 She's the co-founder and the CEO of The Wing,

00:02:00.160 a growing community of women across the country and the globe.

00:02:04.780 But apparently she has sent in her resignation

00:02:08.680 after a group of employees staged a digital walkout

00:02:13.560 due to the lack of inflammation of their policies promoting feminism and race solidarity.

00:02:24.420 The Wing's brand director, Alex Covington,

00:02:27.960 claimed that Audrey Gilman's resignation is just not enough.

00:02:32.080 The Wing just doesn't practice the intersectional feminism that it preaches. 1.00

00:02:40.420 Apparently, the Wing's leaders have disproportionately failed

00:02:44.140 and continue to fail people of color in the Wing.

00:02:48.860 The walkout with the employees brought a private list of demands.

00:02:53.860 They say they are frustrated and saddened by the incompetence and lack of accountability

00:02:59.720 demonstrated time and time again by the Wing leadership.

00:03:04.320 I'm quoting,

00:03:05.580 The public perception of the Wing is at an all-time low.

00:03:11.260 I've never even heard of the Wing,

00:03:17.280 so I don't know how you have poor perception

00:03:20.440 when I don't think anybody knows what the hell the Wing even...

00:03:25.160 But I will apologize for that tomorrow.

00:03:29.000 College now, as said,

00:03:31.160 It's the Berklee College of Music.

00:03:35.620 And they have now apologized to all of the students on campus.

00:03:43.580 They said,

00:03:44.260 Let us assure you,

00:03:45.540 this should not have happened.

00:03:47.680 And going forward,

00:03:48.820 it will not happen in the end.

00:03:51.460 And if this doesn't make sense to you,

00:03:53.940 you need to start drinking earlier.

00:03:57.940 They came out and said

00:03:58.980 the Boston police, of course,

00:04:00.260 have jurisdiction over the roads

00:04:02.040 and other public spaces around our campus,

00:04:04.120 but not inside of our business.

00:04:06.920 And we are deeply sorry

00:04:08.740 for the impact that this has had on our community

00:04:11.540 and for keeping the feelings of oppression going

00:04:18.400 and silence and marginalization.

00:04:22.360 And they will make a more concerted effort

00:04:24.840 to consider the effects of their actions.

00:04:27.780 Apparently, the students were very upset

00:04:30.960 because the college allowed the police during riots

00:04:36.340 to go pee-pee in one of their bathrooms.

00:04:40.800 Oh, the oppression just continues.

00:04:44.340 Gone with the wind is gone.

00:04:46.740 Good.

00:04:47.760 Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

00:04:51.760 It's out because of its oppressive nature.

00:04:55.200 Here, in unrelated news,

00:04:58.060 the second biggest streaming movie on Netflix

00:05:02.180 currently is Gone with the Wind.

00:05:07.540 It's those racist white people.

00:05:11.740 And by the way,

00:05:12.540 Lady Antebellum changed their name just to Lady A. 0.97

00:05:18.300 They like to apologize for the Antebellum thing,

00:05:22.980 which I don't think anybody knows

00:05:24.820 what Antebellum even means anyway.

00:05:27.360 But I'm glad they did it

00:05:29.140 and maybe a couple more days of groveling

00:05:31.760 and we'll all forget it.

00:05:33.880 Now, the L.A. Times,

00:05:35.620 the editor there says the word looting

00:05:38.160 has a racist connotation.

00:05:41.120 And they've talked to all their black reporters

00:05:44.720 and they said,

00:05:46.120 yes, you're right, it does.

00:05:48.940 So they're not going to use the word looting anymore

00:05:52.100 and they're considering getting rid of the word riot as well.

00:06:00.120 Okay.

00:06:01.360 Meanwhile, over at Merriam-Webster's Dictionary,

00:06:05.340 a woman in St. Louis,

00:06:08.280 Kennedy Misham,

00:06:09.760 said I was talking to my friends about race

00:06:12.260 and I realized

00:06:13.300 you don't even have a real clear definition

00:06:19.080 of what racism is.

00:06:20.840 And she went to the dictionary

00:06:22.440 and she didn't like it.

00:06:23.600 So she called Merriam up

00:06:25.180 and said,

00:06:26.160 Merriam,

00:06:26.840 and Merriam said,

00:06:28.480 hello.

00:06:29.860 And she said,

00:06:30.800 Merriam, I don't like what's in your dictionary.

00:06:32.680 And I want that changed.

00:06:36.520 And Merriam said,

00:06:37.740 okay,

00:06:39.640 do I have to apologize if we change it?

00:06:43.120 And the lady in St. Louis said,

00:06:45.060 no, just change it.

00:06:46.380 So Merriam-Webster is changing her dictionary,

00:06:49.860 which is wonderful news.

00:06:52.960 Axios has just given its reporters a green light

00:06:56.680 if you're reporting on one of the stories for Axios

00:07:00.860 and you feel like you just have to join in

00:07:04.680 and maybe get yourself some of those nice sneakers,

00:07:08.460 go ahead and join the riots.

00:07:11.980 In other news,

00:07:14.200 the old Glenn Beck

00:07:15.620 that I apologize for like crazy.

00:07:21.420 I've been thinking about it a lot

00:07:24.480 and there's so much to apologize.

00:07:27.260 The old Glenn Beck would have said,

00:07:29.420 if you're a reporter

00:07:31.460 and you're working for The Blaze

00:07:33.880 and you're covering it,

00:07:36.140 I don't care if it's Black Lives Matter 1.00

00:07:38.480 or, you know,

00:07:40.620 Lab Rats Matter

00:07:41.980 or, you know,

00:07:44.860 white people matter.

00:07:46.000 You join the protest,

00:07:48.020 you're fired.

00:07:50.060 I apologize

00:07:52.420 in advance for the actions

00:07:55.260 I would have said

00:07:56.260 before I found

00:07:57.760 the truth.

00:07:59.800 Cops has been canceled.

00:08:02.220 Good.

00:08:02.900 Get them out.

00:08:04.580 Now we got to get rid of Paw Patrol.

00:08:07.780 Paw Patrol.

00:08:08.740 There's a lot of people

00:08:09.540 complaining about Paw Patrol

00:08:11.080 because the head dog

00:08:13.940 is a policeman.

00:08:15.100 And is anybody

00:08:18.860 in Nickelodeon

00:08:20.020 donating for bail money

00:08:22.760 for people who are

00:08:24.620 definitely not rioting?

00:08:28.300 Because it's a...

00:08:30.140 May I say something?

00:08:32.360 And I mean this.

00:08:33.300 I do not want to bring 0.69

00:08:35.700 a child into a world

00:08:37.760 where Paw Patrol

00:08:39.400 is available to stream.

00:08:42.160 Now, some people

00:08:45.540 might think

00:08:46.140 that that was

00:08:46.680 a comedic line

00:08:49.860 but actually

00:08:50.780 I'm quoting a reporter

00:08:53.160 from the New York Times.

00:08:57.200 ABC News parent company

00:08:59.480 Disney's given

00:09:00.480 five million dollars

00:09:02.180 to social justice groups

00:09:04.180 and so they don't have

00:09:06.360 to apologize later

00:09:08.060 they've decided

00:09:09.760 that they're gonna

00:09:10.880 change Splash Mountain

00:09:12.520 because there's

00:09:14.020 somebody that sings

00:09:14.780 Zippity-Doo-Dah 1.00

00:09:15.600 that people don't like.

00:09:18.280 And so

00:09:19.020 they're taking away

00:09:20.960 all of the

00:09:21.840 Zippity-Doo-Dah stuff 0.96

00:09:23.140 and maybe changing

00:09:26.120 that whole ride

00:09:27.120 into Princess and the Frog

00:09:28.740 which I think

00:09:31.200 is wonderful.

00:09:33.100 They could even

00:09:34.060 keep the song

00:09:34.820 Zippity-Doo-Dah 1.00

00:09:36.580 Zippity-Dah 0.98

00:09:37.560 White people suck 1.00

00:09:40.200 every day.

00:09:43.640 And finally

00:09:44.840 in the news

00:09:45.860 that totally makes sense

00:09:47.960 now

00:09:48.460 that I'm looking at it

00:09:49.880 from

00:09:50.400 through a

00:09:53.700 darkly

00:09:54.720 lit glass

00:09:55.800 a glass

00:09:56.520 dark

00:09:57.200 I don't know

00:09:57.820 I'm looking through

00:09:59.220 the alcohol

00:10:00.200 and it makes sense.

00:10:02.580 Bill Zablas

00:10:03.400 Bill

00:10:04.000 Bill

00:10:05.060 Dill

00:10:05.940 Dill

00:10:06.860 Bullitt

00:10:07.300 the mayor of

00:10:08.780 New York City

00:10:09.660 has decided

00:10:10.840 to

00:10:11.340 to paint

00:10:12.800 and

00:10:13.660 rename

00:10:14.580 streets

00:10:15.320 in honor

00:10:16.220 of

00:10:16.740 the heroes

00:10:18.060 of Black Lives

00:10:19.140 Matter.

00:10:20.640 He says

00:10:20.980 they're gonna do it

00:10:21.660 in all five boroughs.

00:10:23.980 And I think

00:10:25.280 he should.

00:10:26.060 I think

00:10:26.680 this is a

00:10:27.480 really good idea.

00:10:29.140 the only

00:10:30.980 problem is

00:10:32.320 I

00:10:33.520 think I know

00:10:36.280 less about

00:10:37.220 the heroes

00:10:37.980 of Black Lives

00:10:39.220 Matter

00:10:39.580 than I

00:10:41.540 do about

00:10:42.400 that

00:10:42.800 feminist place

00:10:44.360 called

00:10:44.760 The Wing.

00:10:45.700 You're

00:10:49.460 listening to

00:10:49.940 the best

00:10:50.540 of the

00:10:50.920 Glenn Beck

00:10:51.260 program.

00:10:53.660 So we

00:10:54.440 don't want

00:10:54.740 to use

00:10:54.980 the word

00:10:55.360 riot

00:10:55.920 or looting

00:10:57.700 because we

00:10:58.340 have found

00:10:58.660 out from

00:10:58.980 the LA

00:10:59.680 Times

00:11:00.300 today

00:11:00.740 that

00:11:01.720 journalists

00:11:02.540 should never

00:11:03.600 use those

00:11:04.180 words because

00:11:05.020 they

00:11:05.620 connotate

00:11:06.400 racism.

00:11:08.580 I thought

00:11:08.880 they just

00:11:09.420 connotated

00:11:10.120 stealing

00:11:10.700 stuff

00:11:11.300 and breaking

00:11:11.880 in.

00:11:13.340 But

00:11:13.980 no,

00:11:15.080 that's

00:11:15.700 that's

00:11:16.080 my

00:11:16.240 white

00:11:16.460 privilege.

00:11:17.520 Now we

00:11:17.840 have

00:11:18.120 we have

00:11:20.120 a store

00:11:20.580 owner

00:11:20.880 from

00:11:21.320 New

00:11:21.560 York.

00:11:22.980 He's

00:11:23.620 he's

00:11:24.960 from

00:11:25.120 Oscars

00:11:25.640 Gold

00:11:25.980 and

00:11:26.180 Diamonds.

00:11:27.060 His

00:11:27.140 name

00:11:27.420 is

00:11:27.700 Oscar

00:11:29.160 Izergiri

00:11:29.900 Jr.

00:11:31.080 And

00:11:31.520 Oscar

00:11:32.020 is

00:11:32.620 the

00:11:33.260 son

00:11:33.760 of

00:11:34.040 another

00:11:34.520 Oscar.

00:11:35.840 And

00:11:35.920 that

00:11:36.100 other

00:11:36.400 Oscar

00:11:36.720 was

00:11:36.980 the

00:11:37.120 one

00:11:37.300 who

00:11:37.460 started

00:11:37.840 the

00:11:38.040 shop

00:11:39.460 about

00:11:39.820 35

00:11:40.220 years

00:11:40.620 ago.

00:11:41.660 Oscar,

00:11:42.080 welcome

00:11:42.260 to the

00:11:42.540 program.

00:11:42.960 How

00:11:43.040 are

00:11:43.160 you?

00:11:44.400 Hi,

00:11:44.780 Glenn.

00:11:45.000 Thank you

00:11:45.400 for having

00:11:45.860 me on

00:11:46.140 the

00:11:46.260 program.

00:11:47.980 You're

00:11:48.520 welcome.

00:11:49.080 So,

00:11:49.860 Oscar,

00:11:50.560 I'm looking

00:11:51.440 at the

00:11:51.960 video of

00:11:52.820 your shop

00:11:53.480 being,

00:11:54.220 I don't

00:11:57.040 want to

00:11:57.200 say

00:11:57.300 looted,

00:11:58.720 vigorously

00:12:01.120 emptied

00:12:02.700 of its

00:12:03.780 product by

00:12:05.000 early holiday

00:12:05.960 shoppers.

00:12:07.640 And

00:12:08.240 it's pretty

00:12:09.540 nasty to

00:12:10.760 look at.

00:12:11.100 Can you

00:12:11.340 tell me

00:12:11.580 what

00:12:11.760 happened?

00:12:13.120 Yeah,

00:12:13.580 so,

00:12:14.620 I guess

00:12:15.360 these

00:12:15.620 early

00:12:16.200 holiday

00:12:16.600 shoppers,

00:12:17.360 they came

00:12:18.180 in,

00:12:18.480 you know,

00:12:20.060 overnight.

00:12:22.340 Basically,

00:12:23.120 the Bronx

00:12:23.700 was,

00:12:24.200 I don't

00:12:25.620 know if

00:12:25.860 I can

00:12:26.180 politically

00:12:26.620 correctly

00:12:27.160 say war

00:12:27.680 zone

00:12:27.900 either,

00:12:28.460 but I

00:12:29.320 guess the

00:12:29.880 Bronx 0.68

00:12:30.200 was very

00:12:31.500 different

00:12:31.960 that night

00:12:32.720 in a

00:12:33.400 very bad

00:12:35.180 way,

00:12:35.780 or at

00:12:36.000 least in a

00:12:36.320 way that

00:12:36.740 one only

00:12:38.320 season movie.

00:12:38.960 Oscar,

00:12:39.600 Oscar,

00:12:40.200 Oscar,

00:12:40.720 stop

00:12:41.160 using,

00:12:41.920 Oscar,

00:12:42.600 stop using

00:12:43.580 your white

00:12:44.300 privilege,

00:12:45.440 please.

00:12:46.180 You white 1.00

00:12:46.700 people make

00:12:47.360 me sick.

00:12:50.060 Well,

00:12:50.280 Glenn,

00:12:50.520 I'm asking

00:12:50.920 my majority

00:12:51.500 I'm Hispanic.

00:12:54.660 Well,

00:12:55.180 that's not

00:12:56.380 until you're

00:12:59.260 targeted,

00:12:59.860 then you

00:13:00.160 became a

00:13:00.560 white person.

00:13:02.660 Okay,

00:13:03.280 so,

00:13:03.520 they didn't

00:13:06.760 care?

00:13:06.940 The Bronx

00:13:07.440 that night

00:13:08.020 is they

00:13:08.640 broke into

00:13:09.060 my store

00:13:09.660 and it

00:13:11.580 was destroyed.

00:13:12.720 It's

00:13:12.940 completely

00:13:13.360 trashed.

00:13:14.300 I'm over

00:13:14.620 here working

00:13:15.100 with my

00:13:15.480 dad and

00:13:16.340 a couple

00:13:16.660 other

00:13:16.900 buddies,

00:13:17.680 some contractors

00:13:18.500 I know,

00:13:18.880 just trying to

00:13:19.280 get everything

00:13:19.620 back to

00:13:20.000 normal.

00:13:22.780 So,

00:13:23.500 how much

00:13:23.900 did they

00:13:24.260 steal?

00:13:26.580 Luckily,

00:13:27.420 I was able

00:13:28.080 to move

00:13:28.960 the inventory

00:13:30.100 to a

00:13:30.700 secured

00:13:31.060 location.

00:13:33.040 And,

00:13:33.080 I don't

00:13:34.320 know,

00:13:34.500 steal,

00:13:34.860 there's about

00:13:35.500 $50,000

00:13:36.500 of the

00:13:36.920 damages

00:13:37.280 because I

00:13:37.700 have

00:13:37.860 expensive

00:13:38.380 equipment.

00:13:39.620 I have

00:13:40.120 jeweler

00:13:40.380 equipment,

00:13:40.980 molds,

00:13:41.560 jeweler

00:13:41.960 desks,

00:13:42.660 I got

00:13:42.980 showcases,

00:13:44.460 bulletproof

00:13:45.080 glass,

00:13:45.680 plexiglass,

00:13:46.400 each sheet is

00:13:46.940 worth like

00:13:47.400 four or five

00:13:47.880 grand.

00:13:48.400 It's a lot

00:13:50.000 of damage,

00:13:51.080 honestly.

00:13:51.900 How did

00:13:52.380 they break

00:13:53.360 the bulletproof

00:13:54.160 glass or

00:13:54.660 where was

00:13:55.240 the bulletproof

00:13:55.820 glass?

00:13:56.240 Because I

00:13:56.520 know how

00:13:57.020 expensive

00:13:57.460 that is.

00:13:58.700 Yeah,

00:13:59.220 I saw

00:14:00.260 people coming

00:14:01.460 in with

00:14:02.080 sledgehammers

00:14:02.720 and other

00:14:03.140 tools.

00:14:04.200 tools that

00:14:05.200 with enough

00:14:06.480 time you

00:14:07.680 could break

00:14:08.600 it,

00:14:08.800 you know?

00:14:09.720 Yeah,

00:14:10.180 right.

00:14:11.440 So was

00:14:12.620 this,

00:14:13.020 do you

00:14:13.340 think,

00:14:14.220 planned

00:14:14.740 out or

00:14:15.160 was this

00:14:15.500 a spontaneous

00:14:16.180 we're walking

00:14:16.860 by and we're

00:14:17.520 doing this to

00:14:18.040 all the stores

00:14:18.760 or do you

00:14:19.760 think these

00:14:20.080 people came

00:14:20.560 in?

00:14:21.300 This was

00:14:21.780 so planned

00:14:22.500 out.

00:14:23.360 The people

00:14:24.260 that came

00:14:24.780 were definitely

00:14:25.620 not part of

00:14:27.060 the movement

00:14:27.520 or at least

00:14:28.060 I don't think

00:14:28.520 so because

00:14:29.060 during the

00:14:29.940 entire night

00:14:30.860 because this

00:14:31.780 happened from

00:14:32.280 8 p.m.

00:14:33.880 to 5 in the

00:14:34.620 morning.

00:14:35.280 This wasn't

00:14:35.740 like just one

00:14:36.300 group did it

00:14:36.860 and that's it.

00:14:37.560 It was,

00:14:38.360 everybody was

00:14:39.340 doing it.

00:14:39.880 It was the

00:14:40.400 worst thing

00:14:40.920 I've ever

00:14:41.380 seen in my

00:14:41.900 life.

00:14:46.140 And what's

00:14:48.420 it called?

00:14:48.920 So it's been

00:14:49.380 happening,

00:14:50.060 it happened

00:14:50.560 all night

00:14:51.140 and they

00:14:53.200 went to

00:14:53.600 store to

00:14:53.960 store.

00:14:54.160 It was

00:14:54.300 totally planned.

00:14:55.560 It was totally

00:14:55.840 planned.

00:14:56.060 These were

00:14:56.340 opportunists

00:14:57.000 taking advantage

00:14:57.740 of a very

00:14:58.380 serious situation

00:15:00.040 in the

00:15:01.380 nation right

00:15:01.900 now.

00:15:02.960 And it

00:15:04.800 hurts the

00:15:05.440 cause.

00:15:06.720 And I

00:15:07.420 didn't hear

00:15:07.820 not one

00:15:08.500 chant for

00:15:08.940 George Floyd.

00:15:09.520 This had

00:15:10.220 nothing to

00:15:10.800 do with

00:15:11.120 George Floyd

00:15:11.620 in my

00:15:12.220 opinion.

00:15:12.660 And I

00:15:12.960 was there.

00:15:13.680 There was

00:15:13.940 no signs.

00:15:14.980 There was

00:15:15.340 no chanting.

00:15:16.560 This was a

00:15:17.060 complete separate

00:15:18.160 group of

00:15:18.640 people that

00:15:19.620 just took

00:15:20.080 advantage of

00:15:20.680 the situation.

00:15:21.240 That were

00:15:21.760 doing their

00:15:22.700 holiday

00:15:23.320 shopping,

00:15:24.540 Oscar.

00:15:25.560 That,

00:15:25.880 remember,

00:15:27.280 they were

00:15:27.940 just doing

00:15:28.700 their holiday

00:15:29.340 shopping.

00:15:30.040 So your

00:15:30.760 dad,

00:15:31.420 are you a

00:15:33.300 first-generation

00:15:33.940 American?

00:15:35.980 Is your

00:15:36.280 dad an

00:15:36.620 immigrant?

00:15:38.080 Okay.

00:15:39.340 And you

00:15:39.940 guys have

00:15:40.320 been doing

00:15:40.620 this for

00:15:40.960 35 years

00:15:42.080 now.

00:15:43.460 Has your

00:15:44.060 dad seen

00:15:44.580 anything like

00:15:45.380 this ever

00:15:45.900 before?

00:15:46.460 And what's

00:15:46.880 your dad's

00:15:47.380 reaction?

00:15:48.440 No,

00:15:48.880 I asked him,

00:15:50.020 you know,

00:15:50.280 dad,

00:15:50.640 does this

00:15:50.840 happen in

00:15:51.260 the Bronx

00:15:51.580 every five

00:15:52.100 years or

00:15:52.440 something,

00:15:52.800 10 years?

00:15:53.280 And he

00:15:53.520 said,

00:15:53.780 no,

00:15:53.980 this is the

00:15:54.220 worst he's

00:15:54.620 ever seen.

00:15:55.380 And he's

00:15:57.120 from the

00:15:57.500 70s and

00:15:58.400 80s.

00:15:58.940 when,

00:15:59.860 you know,

00:16:00.380 there was

00:16:00.860 a war going

00:16:01.300 on.

00:16:01.540 Things were

00:16:01.820 bad.

00:16:02.840 Yeah.

00:16:03.180 Yeah.

00:16:03.740 The good

00:16:04.040 old days

00:16:04.360 weren't as

00:16:04.740 golden,

00:16:05.100 according to

00:16:05.520 my dad.

00:16:06.220 And he's

00:16:07.000 never seen

00:16:07.400 anything like

00:16:07.980 it.

00:16:08.640 You know,

00:16:08.860 the police

00:16:09.280 did not

00:16:09.600 have control

00:16:10.060 of the

00:16:10.240 situation.

00:16:11.220 They were

00:16:11.420 told to be

00:16:12.300 lenient because

00:16:13.700 they didn't

00:16:14.180 want to

00:16:14.580 actually hurt

00:16:15.200 any protesters,

00:16:16.280 but there

00:16:16.780 weren't none.

00:16:17.860 I didn't see

00:16:18.360 any protesting.

00:16:19.220 All I saw

00:16:19.840 was holiday

00:16:20.600 shoppers being

00:16:21.380 extremely

00:16:21.860 aggressive.

00:16:22.320 Oscar,

00:16:26.900 I just

00:16:27.240 love you,

00:16:27.760 brother.

00:16:29.320 First of

00:16:29.900 all,

00:16:30.680 I'm sorry

00:16:31.700 that this

00:16:32.120 happened to

00:16:32.600 you,

00:16:32.820 but thanks

00:16:33.240 for having

00:16:33.580 the guts

00:16:34.000 to speak

00:16:35.380 out and

00:16:36.400 not sit

00:16:38.440 down and

00:16:38.940 just take

00:16:39.420 it.

00:16:40.120 I appreciate

00:16:40.660 it.

00:16:41.140 Is your

00:16:41.620 insurance

00:16:42.060 covering it?

00:16:42.520 Because this

00:16:42.820 is what

00:16:43.060 they're saying

00:16:43.520 now,

00:16:44.040 that insurance,

00:16:44.800 you know,

00:16:45.000 you guys

00:16:45.280 have insurance,

00:16:46.300 so what

00:16:46.660 do you

00:16:46.900 care?

00:16:47.140 You know,

00:16:49.620 my store

00:16:51.360 is my

00:16:51.880 livelihood.

00:16:52.860 You know,

00:16:53.240 my siblings

00:16:53.940 were sent

00:16:54.400 to college

00:16:55.040 off the

00:16:56.940 store.

00:16:57.320 We were

00:16:57.500 able to

00:16:57.860 have a

00:16:58.200 house and

00:16:58.640 nice cars

00:16:59.200 with the

00:16:59.640 store.

00:17:00.060 So the

00:17:00.500 store is

00:17:00.840 very much

00:17:01.340 my home

00:17:02.180 as well

00:17:03.260 as my

00:17:03.520 normal home.

00:17:04.140 I spent

00:17:04.440 more than

00:17:04.760 half of my

00:17:05.240 life here

00:17:05.660 in this

00:17:05.920 store since

00:17:06.360 I was

00:17:06.640 eight years

00:17:07.140 old,

00:17:07.800 buzzing the

00:17:08.280 door open

00:17:08.760 for customers.

00:17:09.820 So this

00:17:10.140 is very

00:17:10.580 much my

00:17:11.140 home as

00:17:11.540 well.

00:17:12.240 And I

00:17:12.460 think only

00:17:12.900 maybe another

00:17:13.720 store owner

00:17:14.380 or somebody

00:17:15.380 who has a

00:17:16.120 business can

00:17:16.580 understand

00:17:17.140 that.

00:17:17.560 So just

00:17:17.860 because

00:17:18.200 insurance

00:17:18.640 will cover

00:17:19.180 it,

00:17:20.120 you know,

00:17:20.440 how would

00:17:21.020 you like

00:17:21.300 if someone

00:17:21.680 attacked

00:17:22.040 something that

00:17:22.520 you felt

00:17:22.860 was home?

00:17:23.720 It's traumatic.

00:17:24.680 It's not,

00:17:25.720 oh,

00:17:26.040 the insurance

00:17:26.560 will cover

00:17:27.000 it.

00:17:27.240 Well,

00:17:27.780 I guess,

00:17:28.640 but,

00:17:28.900 you know,

00:17:29.620 witnessing

00:17:29.920 that for

00:17:30.460 eight hours

00:17:31.240 at night

00:17:32.000 in all

00:17:33.000 the chaos,

00:17:33.800 it's traumatic,

00:17:34.640 man.

00:17:35.260 And to

00:17:36.780 see,

00:17:37.360 basically what

00:17:38.000 I view

00:17:38.300 as my

00:17:38.640 home

00:17:38.980 be

00:17:39.760 violated,

00:17:42.600 I don't

00:17:43.600 know.

00:17:44.140 It's,

00:17:44.680 I don't

00:17:46.140 think,

00:17:46.420 you know,

00:17:47.180 I'll call

00:17:47.520 insurance

00:17:48.060 is a good

00:17:48.520 band-aid,

00:17:49.220 you know.

00:17:49.580 Thankfully,

00:17:50.200 they'll cover a

00:17:51.000 good amount

00:17:51.480 of what

00:17:51.740 happened,

00:17:52.860 but I

00:17:53.240 mean,

00:17:53.840 you know,

00:17:54.140 I'm still

00:17:54.400 going to be

00:17:54.740 closed for

00:17:55.140 like almost

00:17:55.480 a month.

00:17:55.880 Like,

00:17:56.160 you know,

00:17:56.780 like,

00:17:56.980 And you

00:17:58.440 were already

00:17:58.860 closed because

00:17:59.480 of COVID.

00:18:01.020 And I

00:18:01.360 was already

00:18:01.640 closed because

00:18:02.060 of COVID,

00:18:02.640 you know.

00:18:03.900 As you

00:18:04.200 can tell,

00:18:04.540 it's not

00:18:04.860 going to be

00:18:05.140 a very good

00:18:05.620 quarter for

00:18:06.080 me,

00:18:06.300 but I

00:18:06.520 gotta keep

00:18:07.880 working,

00:18:08.440 you know,

00:18:08.740 for the

00:18:09.020 store that's

00:18:09.420 given me so

00:18:09.920 much.

00:18:10.120 Yeah.

00:18:11.920 I really

00:18:12.640 appreciate you

00:18:13.260 talking to us.

00:18:14.260 Thank you so

00:18:14.700 much,

00:18:14.980 Oscar.

00:18:15.820 Best of luck

00:18:16.420 to you and

00:18:16.840 your dad.

00:18:17.260 Thank you for

00:18:17.280 having me.

00:18:18.580 You bet.

00:18:18.980 You're

00:18:20.760 listening to

00:18:21.380 the best

00:18:22.160 of the

00:18:22.460 Glenn Beck

00:18:22.860 program.

00:18:24.620 Nigel

00:18:25.100 Farage,

00:18:26.180 the Brexit

00:18:26.960 party leader,

00:18:28.620 a guy who's

00:18:30.340 accomplished an

00:18:31.240 awful lot

00:18:32.100 and in

00:18:34.460 many people's

00:18:35.440 eyes has

00:18:36.820 done a heroic

00:18:37.600 thing by

00:18:38.320 getting

00:18:38.780 England out 0.61

00:18:40.540 of out of

00:18:42.240 the Euro

00:18:43.240 Union.

00:18:44.720 But now

00:18:46.300 he's jobless

00:18:47.220 because he

00:18:48.600 was on a

00:18:49.100 TV show

00:18:49.640 and he

00:18:49.940 spoke his

00:18:50.380 mind in

00:18:50.960 England.

00:18:51.780 Nigel,

00:18:52.080 welcome to

00:18:52.380 the program.

00:18:52.860 How are

00:18:53.060 you?

00:18:53.840 Thank you

00:18:54.320 very much.

00:18:54.820 I'm okay,

00:18:55.760 but I have

00:18:56.160 to say

00:18:56.520 there's a

00:18:56.840 sort of

00:18:57.360 mass hysteria

00:18:58.780 that seems

00:18:59.100 to be

00:18:59.340 gripping

00:18:59.740 mainstream

00:19:00.500 media in

00:19:01.120 both of

00:19:01.440 our

00:19:01.600 countries.

00:19:03.740 Well,

00:19:04.340 ours has

00:19:04.760 been taken

00:19:05.380 over

00:19:05.720 completely

00:19:06.380 by the

00:19:08.300 left.

00:19:09.600 I mean,

00:19:09.900 the Uber

00:19:10.280 left.

00:19:10.680 It's not

00:19:11.080 liberal.

00:19:12.000 It's not

00:19:12.520 even Democrat.

00:19:14.180 It is

00:19:14.600 Democratic

00:19:15.640 Socialist

00:19:16.420 and slash 0.87

00:19:17.540 crazy.

00:19:18.600 It is

00:19:19.540 they are

00:19:20.360 denying

00:19:21.060 things now

00:19:21.940 that we're

00:19:22.300 seeing with

00:19:22.800 our own

00:19:23.140 eyes.

00:19:23.680 So tell me

00:19:24.500 about your

00:19:24.900 situation

00:19:25.540 yesterday.

00:19:27.380 You were

00:19:28.000 on a

00:19:28.480 morning,

00:19:29.200 I think

00:19:29.460 you call

00:19:29.760 them wake

00:19:30.100 up shows

00:19:30.660 and you

00:19:32.400 I don't

00:19:34.080 know why

00:19:34.380 you would

00:19:34.640 agree to

00:19:34.980 this,

00:19:35.200 but you

00:19:35.520 you were

00:19:36.000 with

00:19:36.380 Pierce

00:19:37.020 Morgan

00:19:37.460 and he

00:19:40.060 played his

00:19:40.740 usual word

00:19:41.700 games to

00:19:42.520 make himself

00:19:43.340 look good

00:19:43.900 and make

00:19:44.300 you look

00:19:44.700 bad.

00:19:45.160 What

00:19:45.280 happened?

00:19:46.660 Well,

00:19:46.860 I went

00:19:47.060 on to

00:19:47.380 it's a

00:19:47.720 program

00:19:47.980 called

00:19:48.260 Good

00:19:48.460 Morning

00:19:48.760 Britain.

00:19:49.580 It's

00:19:50.060 not the

00:19:50.400 BBC.

00:19:51.200 It's an

00:19:51.380 independent

00:19:51.800 commercial

00:19:52.360 station.

00:19:54.100 He does

00:19:54.400 quite a

00:19:55.400 big breakfast

00:19:55.880 show there.

00:19:56.460 He's done

00:19:56.720 quite well

00:19:57.240 with it.

00:19:58.820 But I

00:19:59.900 went on

00:20:00.320 and the

00:20:00.740 reason I

00:20:01.060 accepted to

00:20:01.820 go on

00:20:02.200 Glenn was

00:20:03.080 because I

00:20:03.460 was watching

00:20:04.000 it the

00:20:04.280 previous

00:20:04.540 days and

00:20:05.940 they were

00:20:06.340 all saying

00:20:07.320 that the

00:20:08.620 protesters

00:20:09.420 were absolutely

00:20:10.500 justified in

00:20:11.580 what they

00:20:11.920 were doing,

00:20:12.520 that Black 1.00

00:20:13.520 Lives Matter

00:20:14.220 was a

00:20:14.700 really,

00:20:15.240 really

00:20:15.420 important

00:20:15.900 movement.

00:20:17.200 And we

00:20:17.900 just had

00:20:18.700 the toppling

00:20:19.740 of the

00:20:20.020 first statue

00:20:20.660 in this

00:20:21.020 country,

00:20:21.800 a statue

00:20:22.320 in Bristol

00:20:22.820 in the

00:20:23.080 west of

00:20:23.360 England,

00:20:24.020 and a

00:20:24.420 mob,

00:20:25.140 an angry

00:20:25.740 mob,

00:20:26.780 tore it

00:20:27.300 down,

00:20:28.200 stamped on

00:20:28.760 it,

00:20:28.980 and then

00:20:29.240 threw it

00:20:29.600 in the

00:20:29.880 sea.

00:20:30.720 And I

00:20:31.180 thought it's

00:20:31.620 about time

00:20:32.420 somebody put

00:20:33.500 up a

00:20:34.340 counter-argument.

00:20:35.360 So I

00:20:35.600 finished up

00:20:36.120 doing it

00:20:37.680 live.

00:20:38.500 It was

00:20:38.760 myself,

00:20:40.100 Piers,

00:20:41.140 Susanna,

00:20:41.600 who works

00:20:41.980 with him,

00:20:42.520 and two

00:20:42.920 other

00:20:43.120 guests,

00:20:44.180 one a

00:20:45.020 Black Lives

00:20:45.480 Matter

00:20:45.660 activist,

00:20:46.320 the other

00:20:46.640 a so-called

00:20:47.640 academic.

00:20:48.740 And it

00:20:49.140 finished up

00:20:49.720 in a

00:20:50.100 four-way

00:20:50.640 shouting

00:20:51.060 match,

00:20:51.800 four of

00:20:52.320 them

00:20:52.560 against

00:20:53.200 me.

00:20:54.000 And my

00:20:54.360 argument

00:20:54.660 was this,

00:20:55.720 whilst we

00:20:56.300 want to

00:20:56.840 have

00:20:57.200 equality

00:20:58.040 of

00:20:58.400 opportunity,

00:20:59.640 we want

00:21:00.220 to live

00:21:00.640 in a

00:21:01.240 society

00:21:01.620 that is

00:21:02.020 free

00:21:02.460 and doesn't

00:21:03.320 have

00:21:03.500 horrible

00:21:03.820 prejudice,

00:21:04.920 the truth

00:21:05.460 is that

00:21:06.400 the three

00:21:06.780 words

00:21:07.180 Black Lives

00:21:07.840 Matters

00:21:08.320 may be

00:21:08.640 innocuous,

00:21:09.700 but the

00:21:10.100 Black Lives

00:21:10.840 Matters

00:21:11.400 organization

00:21:12.500 is an

00:21:13.560 avowedly

00:21:14.120 Marxist

00:21:15.100 anarchistic

00:21:16.240 organization

00:21:17.020 that wants

00:21:17.980 to defund

00:21:18.560 the police,

00:21:19.080 it even

00:21:19.340 wants to

00:21:19.700 abolish the

00:21:20.460 police,

00:21:21.180 it wants

00:21:21.480 to overthrow

00:21:22.140 capitalism,

00:21:23.500 it wants

00:21:24.020 reparations

00:21:25.060 for slavery

00:21:26.140 and centuries

00:21:26.700 gone by,

00:21:27.840 and is a

00:21:28.340 recipe for

00:21:29.400 a really

00:21:30.320 bitter division

00:21:31.860 in society.

00:21:32.600 so I

00:21:32.960 wanted

00:21:33.160 us

00:21:33.340 to

00:21:33.480 recognize

00:21:34.140 who

00:21:34.980 the

00:21:35.180 organizers

00:21:35.740 of

00:21:36.500 these

00:21:36.720 protests

00:21:37.260 were.

00:21:38.120 And

00:21:38.360 everything

00:21:38.560 I

00:21:38.760 quoted

00:21:39.100 to

00:21:39.680 peers

00:21:40.120 and

00:21:40.640 the

00:21:40.740 other

00:21:40.860 panelists,

00:21:41.880 everything

00:21:42.200 I

00:21:42.420 quoted

00:21:42.740 had come

00:21:43.560 directly

00:21:44.100 from

00:21:44.600 the

00:21:45.140 Black Lives

00:21:45.700 Matters

00:21:46.240 website.

00:21:47.420 These

00:21:48.220 weren't my

00:21:48.760 words,

00:21:49.440 they were

00:21:49.880 their

00:21:50.100 words.

00:21:50.640 And they

00:21:51.140 were kind

00:21:51.440 of shouting

00:21:51.880 at me

00:21:52.320 that I

00:21:52.580 was a

00:21:52.880 liar,

00:21:53.360 that I

00:21:53.560 was out

00:21:53.800 of touch.

00:21:54.720 And then

00:21:55.160 we moved

00:21:55.640 on to

00:21:56.900 the toppling

00:21:57.300 of this

00:21:57.600 statue.

00:21:58.440 Now the

00:21:58.780 guy whose

00:21:59.440 statue was

00:21:59.940 toppled

00:22:00.420 was part

00:22:01.760 of,

00:22:02.580 back in

00:22:03.200 the

00:22:03.340 1600s,

00:22:04.600 the

00:22:04.820 slave

00:22:05.100 trade.

00:22:05.840 And let's

00:22:06.860 just remember,

00:22:07.860 every country

00:22:09.140 in those

00:22:09.540 days was

00:22:09.920 involved in

00:22:10.440 it.

00:22:10.820 I'm not

00:22:11.280 condoning

00:22:11.700 it, but

00:22:12.140 that's

00:22:12.480 history,

00:22:13.100 that's

00:22:13.360 the world

00:22:13.660 we lived

00:22:14.060 in.

00:22:14.820 And I

00:22:15.340 said,

00:22:15.880 I thought

00:22:16.540 that if

00:22:17.240 statues

00:22:17.600 should be

00:22:18.140 removed,

00:22:19.100 they should

00:22:19.500 be done

00:22:19.960 by elected

00:22:20.660 city

00:22:20.960 councils,

00:22:21.700 by elected

00:22:22.220 city

00:22:22.560 mayors,

00:22:23.460 with the

00:22:23.880 consent

00:22:24.220 of the

00:22:24.480 people.

00:22:25.360 But if

00:22:25.760 you allow

00:22:26.180 the mob

00:22:26.800 to do

00:22:27.180 it,

00:22:27.780 and if

00:22:28.100 the mob

00:22:28.520 hysterically

00:22:29.500 tear down

00:22:30.800 screaming 0.51

00:22:31.800 statues of

00:22:33.060 people they

00:22:33.460 disapprove of,

00:22:34.620 that that

00:22:35.020 effectively is

00:22:36.540 like the

00:22:36.900 Taliban in 0.94

00:22:38.000 Syria,

00:22:38.940 destroying

00:22:39.520 ancient

00:22:40.460 historical

00:22:41.380 monuments.

00:22:42.220 And I've

00:22:43.360 been criticized

00:22:44.000 for using

00:22:45.260 the analogy,

00:22:46.080 but I think

00:22:46.380 it's a

00:22:46.640 perfect analogy

00:22:47.520 for what

00:22:48.320 went on.

00:22:49.380 And this

00:22:49.840 led to

00:22:50.780 peers making

00:22:51.740 ridiculous

00:22:52.420 comments like,

00:22:53.680 would I want

00:22:54.320 a statue of

00:22:54.920 Hitler in 0.96

00:22:55.360 London?

00:22:55.960 Really low

00:22:57.100 grade stuff.

00:22:58.060 But here's

00:22:58.480 the key

00:22:58.800 point.

00:22:59.100 Here's

00:22:59.580 the key

00:22:59.840 point.

00:23:01.020 When

00:23:01.380 YouGov

00:23:01.960 polled

00:23:02.600 nearly 5,000

00:23:03.440 people,

00:23:04.460 and they

00:23:04.780 asked them,

00:23:05.780 did they

00:23:06.260 approve of

00:23:07.100 the way in

00:23:07.880 which the

00:23:08.240 statue in

00:23:09.320 Bristol was

00:23:09.840 removed,

00:23:10.720 only 13%,

00:23:12.540 1-3% of

00:23:13.900 people,

00:23:14.680 thought that

00:23:15.200 was the

00:23:15.480 right way

00:23:15.800 to behave.

00:23:16.760 So we've

00:23:17.140 now got

00:23:17.820 our biggest

00:23:18.780 mainstream

00:23:19.280 media

00:23:19.720 programs

00:23:20.380 openly

00:23:21.420 supporting

00:23:22.120 13% of

00:23:23.500 the population

00:23:24.140 against

00:23:25.060 87% of

00:23:26.240 the population.

00:23:27.220 And so I

00:23:27.540 don't regret,

00:23:28.200 for one

00:23:29.160 minute,

00:23:29.860 making those

00:23:30.460 arguments.

00:23:32.040 So,

00:23:32.760 Nigel,

00:23:33.120 it's funny

00:23:33.700 that you

00:23:34.000 said this

00:23:34.400 because I

00:23:34.820 know you

00:23:35.240 called me

00:23:35.600 yesterday to

00:23:36.260 tell me this

00:23:36.720 story and I

00:23:37.040 was looking

00:23:37.400 into it and

00:23:37.980 I thought,

00:23:38.580 oh my gosh,

00:23:39.460 that's exactly

00:23:40.380 what I said

00:23:41.660 yesterday.

00:23:42.880 Here in

00:23:43.360 America,

00:23:44.340 I said,

00:23:45.540 this reminds

00:23:46.380 me of the

00:23:47.720 Taliban in 0.94

00:23:48.560 Afghanistan when

00:23:49.580 they blew up

00:23:50.320 the statues

00:23:51.900 of Buddha.

00:23:52.560 those were

00:23:53.160 world heritage

00:23:54.220 sites and

00:23:55.940 they just

00:23:56.420 didn't like

00:23:57.020 them and

00:23:57.580 they wanted

00:23:58.040 them gone

00:23:58.700 because they

00:23:59.480 found them

00:24:00.260 to be

00:24:00.620 blasphemous

00:24:01.380 and the

00:24:02.100 world yawned

00:24:03.120 and it was

00:24:03.900 wrong then.

00:24:05.400 I don't

00:24:06.220 like statues

00:24:07.980 of Civil

00:24:09.580 War heroes

00:24:12.620 like William

00:24:14.420 Bedford.

00:24:16.440 I think that's

00:24:17.420 his name,

00:24:17.740 isn't it?

00:24:18.020 Is it

00:24:18.280 William Bedford,

00:24:18.900 the guy who

00:24:19.280 started the

00:24:19.780 Klan?

00:24:20.780 He was a

00:24:21.660 horrible,

00:24:22.460 horrible,

00:24:23.320 awful human

00:24:24.140 being.

00:24:24.980 Yeah,

00:24:25.160 Bedford Forest,

00:24:25.880 thank you.

00:24:27.240 Awful human

00:24:27.980 being.

00:24:28.620 I think his

00:24:29.360 statues should

00:24:29.980 be taken

00:24:30.380 down if they

00:24:31.080 are still

00:24:31.840 up in the

00:24:32.720 South.

00:24:33.360 I think the

00:24:33.940 schools,

00:24:35.120 if any of

00:24:35.660 them remain

00:24:36.160 that were

00:24:36.620 named after

00:24:37.620 him,

00:24:37.960 should be

00:24:38.400 changed,

00:24:39.040 but not in

00:24:40.100 the middle

00:24:40.480 of the night

00:24:41.180 by an angry

00:24:42.040 mob.

00:24:43.140 And that's

00:24:43.520 exactly what

00:24:44.620 you were

00:24:45.000 talking about.

00:24:45.980 And you

00:24:46.440 lost your

00:24:46.960 job for it.

00:24:48.360 Yep,

00:24:48.600 you and I

00:24:49.020 think exactly

00:24:49.780 the same

00:24:50.120 way about

00:24:50.560 this.

00:24:51.200 If you

00:24:51.480 want to

00:24:51.720 revise your

00:24:53.180 civic

00:24:53.920 architecture in

00:24:54.760 your city,

00:24:55.520 you do it

00:24:56.040 democratically and

00:24:56.780 peacefully.

00:24:58.000 But the

00:24:58.720 problem is,

00:24:59.480 if you try

00:25:00.120 and rewrite

00:25:00.620 history,

00:25:01.600 you find that

00:25:02.360 it has some

00:25:02.740 very unfortunate

00:25:03.300 consequences,

00:25:04.140 because where

00:25:04.600 do you end?

00:25:05.800 I mean,

00:25:06.040 if we're

00:25:06.240 taking down

00:25:06.780 statues of

00:25:07.440 people involved

00:25:08.060 with slavery,

00:25:09.180 well,

00:25:09.480 what about

00:25:09.820 statues of

00:25:10.480 politicians who

00:25:11.220 opposed,

00:25:12.120 100 years

00:25:12.620 ago,

00:25:13.180 votes for

00:25:13.700 women, 1.00

00:25:14.300 for argument's

00:25:14.880 sake?

00:25:15.300 Where do you

00:25:16.060 end with

00:25:16.540 this?

00:25:17.120 You can't

00:25:17.960 look back and

00:25:18.980 judge history

00:25:19.740 for the

00:25:20.480 standards that

00:25:21.100 we have

00:25:21.480 today.

00:25:22.260 And in

00:25:22.680 100 years

00:25:23.240 time,

00:25:24.060 people will

00:25:24.500 look back at

00:25:24.940 us and think

00:25:25.360 we were wrong

00:25:25.980 with some of

00:25:26.780 the things that

00:25:27.180 we believed.

00:25:28.380 Rewriting

00:25:28.820 history,

00:25:29.700 this is the

00:25:30.300 kind of thing

00:25:31.120 that Chairman

00:25:32.020 Mao did.

00:25:33.100 It's the

00:25:33.420 kind of thing,

00:25:34.560 as you and I

00:25:35.140 both agreed,

00:25:36.160 that the Taliban 0.98

00:25:36.580 did.

00:25:37.460 It's the kind of

00:25:38.120 thing that Hitler 0.71

00:25:38.740 did when he

00:25:39.340 burnt books that

00:25:40.900 he found to be

00:25:41.560 unacceptable.

00:25:42.660 And that is the

00:25:43.520 direction the mob

00:25:44.360 is taking us in.

00:25:45.780 They are very

00:25:46.880 heavily funded,

00:25:48.220 you know,

00:25:48.640 and we know

00:25:49.720 the Soros's,

00:25:50.940 the Steyer's,

00:25:51.640 these sort of

00:25:52.120 people,

00:25:52.880 they're very

00:25:53.460 heavily funded.

00:25:54.540 You've got a

00:25:55.060 media that is

00:25:56.240 now complicit

00:25:57.140 with it.

00:25:58.120 And in my

00:25:59.100 country,

00:26:00.260 you know,

00:26:00.500 mainstream

00:26:01.000 leading politicians

00:26:02.380 who were too

00:26:03.600 scared to say

00:26:04.820 a word against

00:26:06.160 it.

00:26:06.840 And what we're

00:26:08.080 lacking,

00:26:08.560 I think,

00:26:09.560 right across

00:26:10.280 Western society,

00:26:11.120 in our churches,

00:26:11.960 in politics,

00:26:12.740 in media,

00:26:14.000 even in the

00:26:14.680 police,

00:26:15.260 what we're

00:26:15.840 lacking is the

00:26:17.280 moral courage

00:26:18.180 to stand up

00:26:19.480 and say,

00:26:20.260 this is wrong

00:26:21.200 and we won't

00:26:22.040 put up with it.

00:26:22.720 And I think

00:26:23.200 certainly in my

00:26:24.440 country,

00:26:25.460 you know,

00:26:26.100 ordinary

00:26:26.620 middle England

00:26:27.660 people are now

00:26:28.780 crying out

00:26:29.860 for someone to

00:26:31.060 say,

00:26:31.540 enough.

00:26:34.300 So,

00:26:35.080 can you tell

00:26:36.320 me why they

00:26:37.080 are getting

00:26:37.540 rid of or

00:26:38.440 they're defacing

00:26:39.240 the Churchill?

00:26:40.220 Why is

00:26:41.040 a group

00:26:42.120 like Antifa,

00:26:43.800 if that is

00:26:44.460 who's doing

00:26:45.060 it over there?

00:26:46.220 Why are

00:26:47.000 these anti-fascists

00:26:48.300 defacing the

00:26:49.500 guy who

00:26:50.200 ended fascism

00:26:51.620 and Churchill?

00:26:53.060 Absolutely right.

00:26:54.080 I mean,

00:26:54.360 if it wasn't

00:26:55.040 for Churchill,

00:26:55.600 it would have

00:26:56.300 been a Nazi

00:26:56.880 Europe that

00:26:58.040 probably would

00:26:58.540 have lasted

00:26:58.960 for about 50

00:26:59.700 years.

00:27:00.360 So you're

00:27:00.820 absolutely right.

00:27:01.940 Nobody in

00:27:02.620 the world

00:27:03.380 did more

00:27:04.460 to defeat

00:27:05.100 fascism in a

00:27:05.960 very brave

00:27:06.460 fashion than

00:27:07.480 Winston Churchill.

00:27:08.600 But,

00:27:09.080 of course,

00:27:09.880 he was a

00:27:10.380 big British

00:27:11.180 patriot.

00:27:12.380 He was a

00:27:12.940 huge supporter

00:27:13.780 of the

00:27:15.140 British Empire.

00:27:17.060 And,

00:27:17.120 you know,

00:27:18.540 part of this

00:27:19.440 protest,

00:27:21.520 it began,

00:27:22.780 there was a

00:27:23.180 catalyst with

00:27:23.840 the horrible

00:27:24.160 death of

00:27:24.600 George Floyd.

00:27:25.660 Some of the

00:27:26.220 people protesting

00:27:26.940 genuinely want

00:27:28.460 injustices to

00:27:29.860 be solved.

00:27:31.040 But right behind

00:27:31.720 this is cultural

00:27:35.240 Marxism.

00:27:36.260 this is an

00:27:38.100 attempt to

00:27:39.280 destroy

00:27:40.060 everything this

00:27:41.300 country has

00:27:42.340 ever stood

00:27:43.140 for,

00:27:43.740 everything this

00:27:44.560 country has

00:27:45.440 ever fought

00:27:46.360 for,

00:27:47.100 and to try

00:27:47.720 and indoctrinate

00:27:48.740 a young,

00:27:50.060 university-educated

00:27:51.640 group of

00:27:52.320 people that

00:27:53.140 they should be

00:27:53.540 ashamed of

00:27:54.080 their nation,

00:27:55.140 ashamed of

00:27:55.660 their country,

00:27:56.700 that we should

00:27:57.160 remove all

00:27:58.460 symbols of our

00:27:59.240 past,

00:27:59.940 we should

00:28:00.340 overthrow the

00:28:01.560 free market and

00:28:02.340 capitalism,

00:28:02.880 and it is,

00:28:04.840 frankly,

00:28:06.100 this is the

00:28:06.880 most dangerous

00:28:07.460 thing we've

00:28:08.020 seen since

00:28:08.920 Churchill was

00:28:09.880 our Prime

00:28:10.280 Minister.

00:28:12.700 Well,

00:28:13.480 Nigel,

00:28:14.080 it is good

00:28:14.760 to talk to

00:28:15.240 you.

00:28:16.620 I'd love to

00:28:17.360 see your

00:28:18.420 voice on the

00:28:19.120 blaze,

00:28:19.760 quite honestly.

00:28:20.940 It's,

00:28:21.820 you know,

00:28:22.320 my company

00:28:22.820 that isn't

00:28:23.320 just,

00:28:23.720 we're not

00:28:24.580 going to

00:28:25.280 fold.

00:28:25.840 We are not

00:28:26.620 going to

00:28:27.060 fold,

00:28:27.260 and we are

00:28:27.780 putting together

00:28:28.500 a list of,

00:28:29.900 I think,

00:28:31.940 patriots who

00:28:32.860 are risking

00:28:33.420 it all,

00:28:34.140 and we'll

00:28:35.180 watch each

00:28:35.680 other's back.

00:28:36.380 Even if we

00:28:36.820 don't agree

00:28:37.280 with each

00:28:37.660 other on

00:28:37.980 everything,

00:28:39.300 we're not

00:28:39.820 supposed to.

00:28:40.580 That's not

00:28:41.020 what an

00:28:41.980 intellectual

00:28:42.420 exchange is

00:28:43.320 all about,

00:28:43.980 agreeing.

00:28:45.360 So,

00:28:45.840 Nigel,

00:28:46.420 thank you so

00:28:46.880 much.

00:28:47.420 God bless

00:28:47.800 you.

00:28:48.060 Thank you.

00:28:48.600 Thank you.

00:28:49.000 Thank you.

00:28:51.400 This is the

00:28:52.180 best of the

00:28:52.720 Glenn Beck

00:28:53.140 program.

00:28:57.700 I thought I

00:29:00.040 had seen it

00:29:00.640 all until I

00:29:02.120 saw a report

00:29:02.840 from now

00:29:03.640 CNN saying

00:29:05.460 that right

00:29:06.440 wing extremist

00:29:08.060 publications like

00:29:10.340 the blaze or

00:29:11.700 Breitbart or,

00:29:12.920 you know,

00:29:13.680 the Rush

00:29:14.100 Limbaugh

00:29:14.640 program or,

00:29:15.840 or any of

00:29:18.120 any of us

00:29:19.060 that are

00:29:19.400 saying the

00:29:19.980 truth.

00:29:20.720 Laura Logan

00:29:21.400 is under

00:29:22.440 attack and

00:29:25.020 good luck

00:29:26.980 with Fox

00:29:27.560 watching your

00:29:28.080 back.

00:29:29.060 But she's 0.97

00:29:30.560 under attack

00:29:31.180 as all of

00:29:31.960 us are that

00:29:32.540 say that

00:29:33.100 Antifa is

00:29:33.940 at all

00:29:34.420 involved with

00:29:35.700 the Seattle

00:29:36.320 movement.

00:29:37.440 That's

00:29:37.760 absolutely not

00:29:38.680 true,

00:29:39.080 according to

00:29:39.620 CNN and

00:29:40.300 others in

00:29:40.780 the mainstream

00:29:41.220 media.

00:29:42.460 Somebody who

00:29:43.140 lives in

00:29:43.780 Seattle who's

00:29:44.440 been covering

00:29:45.040 this forever

00:29:45.960 has been

00:29:46.780 following Seattle

00:29:47.720 politics is

00:29:48.660 Christopher Ruffo.

00:29:50.000 He's a

00:29:50.420 contributing

00:29:50.860 editor for

00:29:51.560 the City

00:29:52.000 Journal.

00:29:53.060 He's also a

00:29:53.720 filmmaker and a

00:29:54.540 writer and a

00:29:55.140 policy research.

00:29:55.940 He's directed

00:29:56.580 four films for

00:29:57.840 PBS.

00:29:59.320 So he's a

00:30:00.020 respected guy.

00:30:02.780 And Christopher,

00:30:04.020 tell me what

00:30:05.420 you know about

00:30:06.600 the lies of

00:30:08.580 the right-wing

00:30:09.340 media about

00:30:10.440 that just

00:30:11.600 God-loving,

00:30:13.400 peaceful group

00:30:14.280 Antifa in

00:30:14.980 Seattle.

00:30:16.280 Yeah, I mean

00:30:17.040 Antifa has the

00:30:18.840 biggest presence

00:30:19.480 in the country

00:30:20.160 and in Pacific

00:30:21.200 Northwest

00:30:21.540 cities,

00:30:22.180 predominantly

00:30:22.480 Portland,

00:30:23.880 Tacoma,

00:30:24.500 Seattle,

00:30:24.860 and it's

00:30:26.020 just absolutely

00:30:26.760 stunning that

00:30:27.800 the media at

00:30:28.460 CNN would

00:30:29.280 not believe the

00:30:31.100 huge amount of

00:30:32.200 evidence that

00:30:33.460 Antifa is one of

00:30:34.880 the driving forces

00:30:35.680 behind the

00:30:36.160 protests.

00:30:36.800 And, you know,

00:30:37.520 if anyone wants

00:30:38.440 to check for

00:30:38.900 themselves, it's

00:30:39.480 not really hard.

00:30:40.380 If you look at

00:30:40.960 the kind of

00:30:42.020 Keystone Antifa

00:30:43.440 social media

00:30:44.300 accounts, they're

00:30:45.140 all talking about

00:30:45.980 organizing in the

00:30:46.780 Chas, getting 0.76

00:30:47.840 armed people into

00:30:49.240 the Chas, they're 1.00

00:30:50.700 celebrating the

00:30:51.720 victory of the

00:30:52.660 Chas as an 0.98

00:30:53.860 Antifa-specific

00:30:55.120 victory.

00:30:56.100 And then you

00:30:56.500 can see photos

00:30:57.340 of kind of

00:30:58.860 black-clad,

00:30:59.720 black-block Antifa

00:31:00.500 protesters who

00:31:01.380 were out all

00:31:02.020 week hammering

00:31:03.380 away at the

00:31:03.780 police, throwing

00:31:04.700 explosive devices,

00:31:06.400 throwing bricks,

00:31:07.280 throwing rocks,

00:31:08.140 throwing bottles.

00:31:09.660 And they're

00:31:10.900 celebrating this

00:31:11.680 openly, and it's

00:31:12.860 only because the

00:31:15.080 CNN and other

00:31:16.000 media are playing

00:31:16.760 this kind of

00:31:17.860 word game, trying

00:31:18.940 to be cute about

00:31:20.140 it, that they can

00:31:20.780 say, well, Antifa

00:31:21.500 is not an

00:31:21.940 organization, it's

00:31:22.620 an ideology.

00:31:23.980 But I'm convinced

00:31:25.600 that it's really

00:31:27.280 just a smokescreen

00:31:28.580 that they cover.

00:31:29.840 They're trying to

00:31:30.920 have fun attacking

00:31:32.480 their perceived

00:31:33.080 political enemies

00:31:33.860 and covering up

00:31:35.440 the very obvious

00:31:36.460 truth that anyone

00:31:37.440 can see with

00:31:38.740 their own eyes.

00:31:40.460 I've never seen

00:31:41.440 anything like this,

00:31:42.320 Christopher.

00:31:42.760 I've never seen

00:31:45.040 things so clearly

00:31:47.020 and wonder, I

00:31:49.280 mean, it's almost

00:31:50.320 like watching the

00:31:51.620 news now is

00:31:52.540 like watching

00:31:53.760 The Onion.

00:31:54.880 They're asking

00:31:55.640 you to deny

00:31:56.840 things that you

00:31:57.800 know are true.

00:31:58.560 It's almost like

00:31:59.240 they're being

00:31:59.560 sarcastic and

00:32:00.500 saying, no, this

00:32:01.300 isn't Antifa, and

00:32:02.080 it's completely

00:32:02.700 peaceful.

00:32:04.180 Well, you see

00:32:04.940 black-clad members

00:32:06.040 of Antifa throwing

00:32:07.940 bottles and Molotov

00:32:09.260 cocktails and

00:32:10.120 burning cars.

00:32:11.220 I mean, what is

00:32:14.080 their thinking?

00:32:15.780 What is their

00:32:16.140 motivation, do you

00:32:17.300 think?

00:32:18.400 I think what it

00:32:19.340 is, is that there

00:32:20.140 is a huge imbalance

00:32:21.800 in the power

00:32:22.400 dynamic between the

00:32:23.480 right and left

00:32:24.040 media.

00:32:24.940 If someone in the

00:32:25.680 right-wing media

00:32:26.340 tweets the wrong

00:32:27.260 person, likes the

00:32:28.480 wrong page, does

00:32:30.020 some kind of minor

00:32:30.860 infraction against

00:32:32.060 the predominant

00:32:33.000 social justice

00:32:33.600 narrative, they'll

00:32:34.980 get hammered, 0.85

00:32:35.740 they'll get

00:32:36.000 advertisers canceled,

00:32:37.520 people will come

00:32:38.780 after them, they'll

00:32:39.900 show up at their

00:32:40.460 home, you know,

00:32:41.920 kind of to harass

00:32:42.760 them.

00:32:43.520 But the left has

00:32:44.740 shown time after

00:32:45.640 time, and if you

00:32:46.720 look at the kind

00:32:47.400 of Chris Cuomo

00:32:48.100 CNN debacle, if

00:32:50.100 you look at a

00:32:50.640 number of people

00:32:51.460 in very high

00:32:52.160 positions that

00:32:52.780 have said things

00:32:53.360 that are flat-out

00:32:54.140 wrong, flat-out

00:32:55.400 false, extremely

00:32:56.980 biased, they don't

00:32:58.320 pay any price.

00:32:59.460 And I think what

00:32:59.940 you're seeing now is

00:33:00.860 that they're brazenly

00:33:02.520 disregarding the

00:33:03.320 obvious truth, and

00:33:04.700 really smirking,

00:33:05.840 because they have

00:33:07.360 the kind of dominant

00:33:09.020 position in the

00:33:10.020 cultural hierarchy,

00:33:11.300 they're not paying a

00:33:12.160 price, so why

00:33:13.260 wouldn't they?

00:33:13.920 It's a good way for 0.85

00:33:14.700 them to go after

00:33:15.740 their enemies, and

00:33:17.120 do so with

00:33:18.220 impunity.

00:33:19.820 Do they have any

00:33:20.640 idea that Antifa

00:33:22.340 will kill them

00:33:24.520 just as fast as

00:33:25.480 they'll kill me, or

00:33:26.660 you, or anybody

00:33:27.800 else?

00:33:29.560 You know, I think

00:33:30.320 they're useful for

00:33:31.080 Antifa now, so

00:33:32.800 that they feel in a

00:33:34.440 protected space, but

00:33:35.320 I'll tell you

00:33:35.720 something that

00:33:36.320 unfolded at the

00:33:37.760 CHAZ just a few

00:33:39.080 days ago.

00:33:40.200 In Seattle, who

00:33:41.320 actually, the

00:33:41.860 councilwoman who

00:33:42.560 represents the area

00:33:43.640 of Capitol Hill, is

00:33:45.140 a woman by the

00:33:45.780 name of Shama

00:33:46.260 Sawant.

00:33:46.820 She's a member of

00:33:47.460 the Socialist

00:33:48.100 Alternative Party,

00:33:49.540 which is a

00:33:50.220 Marxist-Leninist

00:33:51.500 political party that

00:33:52.880 advocates for

00:33:53.960 socialist revolution

00:33:55.340 and the overthrow

00:33:55.940 of capitalism.

00:33:57.180 This is someone who

00:33:58.180 is on the very

00:33:59.200 far left.

00:34:00.420 So she went to

00:34:01.280 the CHAZ, she 1.00

00:34:02.440 went within the

00:34:03.100 autonomous zone, and

00:34:04.600 she held a rally, and

00:34:05.800 she was saying,

00:34:06.520 I'm with you, this

00:34:07.400 is a victory for

00:34:08.340 socialism, and I'm

00:34:10.120 going to now propose

00:34:11.680 a city ordinance to

00:34:12.980 defund the police by

00:34:14.160 50%, and she was 1.00

00:34:16.080 actually booed and

00:34:17.680 castigated and

00:34:18.760 chewed out by the

00:34:19.480 protester because it

00:34:20.940 didn't go far

00:34:21.580 enough, and then

00:34:22.700 the rhetoric from

00:34:23.600 the protesters was

00:34:24.580 that she was, she's

00:34:25.760 a woman of Indian

00:34:26.880 descent, that she

00:34:28.080 was being

00:34:28.760 essentially racist by

00:34:30.260 minimizing black 0.99

00:34:32.060 and brown women and 1.00

00:34:33.500 their voice and kind

00:34:34.500 of appropriating it.

00:34:35.840 So if they can turn

00:34:37.260 on an elected

00:34:38.100 official who is a

00:34:39.120 Marxist-Leninist

00:34:40.080 that wants to cut

00:34:41.180 police funding by

00:34:41.880 50%, you can be

00:34:44.560 absolutely sure that

00:34:46.380 they'll turn on

00:34:46.880 almost anyone when

00:34:48.120 the time is right.

00:34:50.180 So what is

00:34:51.080 happening in

00:34:52.100 Seattle?

00:34:52.660 The governor

00:34:53.160 said, oh, I

00:34:55.100 didn't know anything

00:34:56.100 about this, I

00:34:57.060 hadn't heard

00:34:57.440 anything.

00:34:58.240 I mean, are you

00:34:58.800 kidding me?

00:35:00.000 It was like the

00:35:00.880 next day that he

00:35:02.760 finally comes out

00:35:04.140 and recognizes that

00:35:05.400 that happened, and

00:35:06.140 then he claims

00:35:08.040 that it's peaceful,

00:35:08.940 the Seattle mayor

00:35:11.380 was on television

00:35:12.720 yesterday saying,

00:35:14.120 oh, it's nothing

00:35:14.640 but poetry readings,

00:35:16.160 and, you know, it's

00:35:17.400 going to be a summer

00:35:17.960 of love.

00:35:19.660 What?

00:35:20.240 Yeah, I mean, if

00:35:21.960 you watch the video

00:35:22.800 of the Seattle mayor

00:35:23.660 basically saying, oh,

00:35:24.760 this autonomous zone

00:35:26.380 has always been a

00:35:27.060 very autonomous

00:35:27.640 neighborhood, it's a

00:35:29.380 peaceful expression

00:35:30.260 of protest, it's

00:35:31.260 patriotic, I mean,

00:35:32.660 her tone and her

00:35:33.820 facial expressions, it

00:35:34.880 has the energy of a

00:35:36.200 hostage video, because

00:35:37.980 the political reality

00:35:39.540 right now is that

00:35:40.820 the mayor, who is

00:35:42.360 seen as the kind of

00:35:43.740 moderate force in

00:35:44.840 Seattle, has lost

00:35:46.300 really all political

00:35:47.600 power and momentum,

00:35:48.560 so you have now

00:35:50.080 sitting city council

00:35:51.040 members calling for

00:35:51.920 her resignation, you

00:35:53.420 have protesters,

00:35:54.720 sometimes armed

00:35:55.440 protesters, who have

00:35:56.900 seized control of a

00:35:58.100 large part of a

00:35:59.220 neighborhood, and she's 1.00

00:36:00.720 powerless, and my

00:36:02.540 sources within the

00:36:03.360 Seattle Police Department

00:36:04.200 have said, you know,

00:36:06.100 that have knowledge

00:36:07.360 of these

00:36:07.680 deliberations, said

00:36:08.580 that the mayor and

00:36:09.440 the police chief really

00:36:10.340 have no long-term

00:36:11.300 plans, they're going

00:36:12.600 day by day, and

00:36:13.880 they're really just

00:36:14.520 reacting to

00:36:15.300 protesters, because

00:36:16.640 they feel like

00:36:17.380 politically, in the

00:36:18.640 media narrative, they

00:36:19.780 have no room to act.

00:36:22.140 The police chief, who's

00:36:26.100 an African-American

00:36:26.820 woman, she, I just 0.97

00:36:28.940 saw a very compelling

00:36:30.040 video saying, you know,

00:36:32.380 I asked you to fight

00:36:33.640 and hold that

00:36:34.800 precinct, and then it

00:36:36.460 seems like I sold you

00:36:37.760 out, but it wasn't me.

00:36:39.240 This decision was made

00:36:40.700 elsewhere, and I

00:36:42.000 didn't have a part of

00:36:42.920 this decision.

00:36:44.120 Do you believe that?

00:36:46.160 I do, yeah.

00:36:47.400 I think the police

00:36:48.100 chief is genuine.

00:36:49.280 She, you know,

00:36:49.940 officers that I've

00:36:51.020 talked to admire the

00:36:52.680 chief, they like the

00:36:53.880 chief, but they

00:36:55.200 recognize that she,

00:36:56.380 too, is kind of, you

00:36:58.060 know, only really the

00:36:59.240 second person in

00:37:00.960 command.

00:37:01.460 The mayor has the

00:37:02.300 ultimate authority,

00:37:03.020 and I think what

00:37:04.180 you've seen in the

00:37:04.980 past few days is that

00:37:05.960 officers are talking

00:37:08.660 to me and even

00:37:09.280 speaking publicly

00:37:10.000 saying, you know,

00:37:11.780 we fight for this

00:37:13.780 city, we protect this

00:37:14.900 city, we will take a

00:37:16.120 bullet for this city,

00:37:17.140 but now we have not

00:37:18.480 only the protesters,

00:37:19.940 but the public, and

00:37:21.220 now our boss,

00:37:22.940 essentially the mayor,

00:37:23.720 turning against us.

00:37:25.820 Morale has never been

00:37:26.880 lower, and a lot of

00:37:28.280 officers I've talked to

00:37:29.160 are trying to get out,

00:37:30.360 going to smaller cities

00:37:31.640 and surrounding

00:37:32.420 area, because

00:37:33.240 frankly, it's a very

00:37:34.920 brutal and difficult

00:37:36.440 time to be a police

00:37:37.340 officer, and then

00:37:38.800 you're going to the

00:37:39.360 barricades, working

00:37:40.160 12-hour shifts every

00:37:41.220 night, getting, you

00:37:43.100 know, 45 officers out

00:37:44.560 on injuries, sustained

00:37:46.880 in the riots, and

00:37:48.060 then they're getting

00:37:49.020 trashed by the

00:37:50.160 political leaders.

00:37:51.680 It's really unfair and

00:37:54.160 very difficult for the

00:37:55.120 police.

00:37:55.380 So, what is the game

00:37:58.860 plan?

00:38:00.000 I mean, what is the

00:38:00.800 exit strategy here for

00:38:02.960 the Marxists and the

00:38:07.640 Marxists in city council?

00:38:09.640 I mean, how do they see

00:38:10.780 this unfolding, and

00:38:13.180 where does this go?

00:38:15.740 Well, you know, the

00:38:17.020 political path, there's

00:38:18.980 really two paths.

00:38:20.560 One path, I think, is

00:38:22.220 the mayor is really

00:38:23.960 hoping that the situation

00:38:25.040 resolves itself, and

00:38:27.300 that she can kind of

00:38:28.680 just let this thing

00:38:29.500 fizzle out, and then

00:38:30.620 make incremental

00:38:31.840 changes and move

00:38:32.760 forward.

00:38:33.360 But the more likely

00:38:34.460 path, I think, what's

00:38:35.760 going to happen in the

00:38:36.480 next week is that some

00:38:38.240 of the socialist and

00:38:39.580 Antifa-affiliated city

00:38:41.340 council members, and

00:38:42.240 you have to keep in

00:38:42.780 mind, and this is,

00:38:43.940 again, contra CNN,

00:38:46.260 but one of the sitting

00:38:47.740 city council members is

00:38:49.600 an Antifa affiliate.

00:38:51.300 She actually dressed up

00:38:52.340 her newborn baby in an

00:38:54.100 Antifa onesie and

00:38:55.400 tweeted about she's

00:38:56.500 training a new

00:38:57.020 revolutionary.

00:38:58.520 Oh, my gosh.

00:38:59.940 These are people who

00:39:00.920 are deeply connected

00:39:02.340 with the Antifa

00:39:03.580 movement, and they're

00:39:05.420 going to make a run

00:39:06.200 right now.

00:39:06.940 I'm hearing they have

00:39:07.820 potentially a majority

00:39:09.140 to cut police funding

00:39:10.640 by 50%, and that would

00:39:12.880 mean going from about

00:39:13.780 1,400 officers in

00:39:15.160 Seattle down to about

00:39:16.380 800.

00:39:17.500 So this is a high-stakes

00:39:19.800 game.

00:39:20.240 What officer would

00:39:22.260 stay for that?

00:39:23.520 What officer would

00:39:24.640 say, oh, yeah, no,

00:39:27.020 I'm going to be there

00:39:27.820 when I'm now in a

00:39:30.300 force that's half the

00:39:31.820 size that it should be.

00:39:33.460 If it shouldn't, in

00:39:34.400 that city, it probably

00:39:35.360 shouldn't even be

00:39:35.940 larger than 14.

00:39:37.140 And what officer would

00:39:38.560 stay and do that?

00:39:40.800 Yeah, I'll tell you,

00:39:41.760 there's a specific

00:39:42.380 answer.

00:39:43.280 Officers that are

00:39:44.040 nearing retirement, all

00:39:45.380 of the officers that I've

00:39:46.360 talked to that are a

00:39:47.200 year, two years, three

00:39:48.800 years away from getting

00:39:49.560 their pension, they're

00:39:50.920 telling me, hey, we're

00:39:51.840 going to stick it out

00:39:52.920 because we're highly

00:39:54.400 vested, we want to get

00:39:55.400 our pension, but all of

00:39:57.620 the young officers are

00:39:58.460 going to be gone.

00:39:59.360 So the people that you

00:40:00.200 really need that are

00:40:01.060 young and energetic,

00:40:02.640 optimistic, idealistic

00:40:04.900 even, the really good

00:40:06.780 officers that are young

00:40:08.040 and can handle those

00:40:09.200 difficult situations,

00:40:10.780 they're going to

00:40:11.460 disappear.

00:40:12.120 So you're going to

00:40:12.480 have an older, more

00:40:14.500 experienced, but frankly,

00:40:16.120 less effective department.

00:40:17.240 So it's going to be a

00:40:19.780 disaster, but what you've

00:40:21.140 seen is that these

00:40:23.420 protesters and these

00:40:24.540 city council members and

00:40:26.220 legislators around the

00:40:27.080 country, they don't care

00:40:28.420 about what's effective.

00:40:29.700 They care about

00:40:30.300 instituting their

00:40:31.000 ideology, and for them,

00:40:32.700 unfortunately, chaos is

00:40:33.820 good because it gives

00:40:35.100 them a pretext to seize

00:40:36.400 more power.

00:40:38.000 So I was saying

00:40:39.780 yesterday that I look at

00:40:41.200 this and I see Donald

00:40:42.840 Trump saying, you know,

00:40:43.960 we're going to come in

00:40:44.660 and that's what would

00:40:45.640 normally happen.

00:40:47.140 I mean, it would have

00:40:47.800 happened already in a

00:40:49.580 reasonable time period,

00:40:51.120 but I think he's just

00:40:54.220 been set up and you'll

00:40:56.440 have National Guard

00:40:58.460 troops there and

00:40:59.300 they'll be painted as

00:41:00.540 the big, ugly American 1.00

00:41:01.980 thug coming in and

00:41:05.080 that part of the city

00:41:07.260 would burn down to the

00:41:08.200 ground and nobody would

00:41:10.060 care and the press would

00:41:11.000 cover it as the big,

00:41:12.140 bad Donald Trump with

00:41:13.080 this big bag military

00:41:14.260 coming in, not a

00:41:15.860 restoration of order.

00:41:16.860 Is there anyone in the

00:41:18.620 city?

00:41:19.140 Are there residents for

00:41:22.520 all of this crap?

00:41:24.620 You know, it's very

00:41:26.120 difficult to tell.

00:41:27.000 I think the residents are

00:41:28.340 overwhelmingly for the

00:41:29.820 Black Lives Matter

00:41:30.600 agenda, for progressive

00:41:31.880 politics, even for the

00:41:34.740 kind of establishment of

00:41:35.840 an autonomous zone.

00:41:36.840 I think so long as it's

00:41:38.740 seen in the mainstream

00:41:40.060 media as something that

00:41:41.360 is a jubilant streets

00:41:42.520 fair, but as the kind

00:41:44.860 of narrative gets out,

00:41:46.040 as things devolve, as

00:41:47.720 kind of roving street

00:41:50.340 gangs start implementing 0.98

00:41:51.620 street justice, you're 1.00

00:41:53.720 going to see what

00:41:54.120 happened with Occupy

00:41:55.160 Wall Street.

00:41:56.000 As the Occupy

00:41:56.940 protesters lost control,

00:41:58.640 as there was reports of

00:41:59.620 sexual assault, things

00:42:01.100 kind of crumbled and the

00:42:02.120 public opinion turned.

00:42:03.100 But I think right now

00:42:05.160 the energy in the city

00:42:06.720 of Seattle is behind

00:42:08.140 the protesters, which

00:42:09.940 makes it completely

00:42:10.940 impossible for them to

00:42:11.980 act.

00:42:13.420 I don't know how you do

00:42:14.160 it, Christopher.

00:42:15.120 I don't know how you

00:42:15.720 live there.

00:42:16.680 God bless you.

00:42:17.540 Thank you so much.

00:42:18.340 We'll talk to you again.

00:42:19.320 Thank you for following

00:42:20.260 this and keep your chin

00:42:22.620 up and never apologize

00:42:24.700 for the truth, as I know

00:42:26.120 you won't.
