00:00:00.180 Hey, welcome to the podcast. We've got a great podcast for you today. And by the way, if you ever miss any of the shows or you want to hear the other people's opinions on stuff, we have just a buttload of really great shows and podcasts.
00:00:13.400 You can find them all by joining blaze tv.com slash Glenn. Use the promo code Glenn and you're gonna save 10%. All right. Today's podcast, the arrogance of the left.
00:00:25.300 But I, I think I sense something is changing and it may be really early, but something is changing and we'll talk about that.
00:00:34.980 And I think you're going to really enjoy that opening monologue. Also, the guy up in Chicago who has been on the story of Jussie Smollett from the beginning.
00:00:45.680 He's from Fox 32. Nobody wanted to listen to him, but he's been right every step of the way.
00:00:49.940 He tells us what's really going on in Chicago. David Horowitz on his dark agenda. This is a new book called the war to destroy Christian America. Dark agenda.
00:01:00.420 Also, Laura Logan. What's happening with, with Laura Logan and a great woman who says, don't go to college.
00:01:11.100 That's what she wants to do in her commencement address at high schools all across America. Nobody wants to hear it because she said college is a giant scam.
00:01:20.440 A great one for college students and for those considering going to college and parents need to listen.
00:01:28.000 And then we wrap it up with a very controversial painting I found at a yard sale that we really need your help to decide on what we should do.
00:01:38.360 Because maybe the artist has gone too far. You decide.
00:01:42.280 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:01:57.120 I want to thank our Spotlight sponsor. It is Home Title Lock.
00:02:01.080 Yeah, Home Title Lock is a great company.
00:02:03.700 We've seen all these developments that have come out the last few weeks.
00:02:07.160 There was the, also, all these leaks that have come out.
00:02:10.880 Then you have the grand jury report that they had 2,000 complaints just in Manhattan over title fraud.
00:02:17.500 Complaints really had gone over every, almost every case involved a faulty notarization.
00:02:24.420 And this is what they do.
00:02:25.100 They take these fake notary stamps and they make it seem like they can transfer their title.
00:02:29.440 But then they forge some documents and all of a sudden you're, well, it gets screwed.
00:02:32.040 Criminals look for the vulnerable properties and they scan the obituaries and pour through your public records.
00:02:37.780 Once the title is transferred, the fraudsters take out the mortgage, sell the property, and sometimes they even rent it out.
00:02:43.300 Don't, don't go down this road, please.
00:02:45.140 Don't be a victim of this.
00:02:46.080 HomeTitleLock.com is the place to go to make sure it does not happen to you.
00:02:50.860 HomeTitleLock.com is the place to go.
00:02:53.820 Give them a call, or go to their website, check it out.
00:02:56.100 You'll reserve a free title scan and report.
00:02:57.720 It's $100 value.
00:02:59.200 HomeTitleLock.com.
00:03:00.040 If you've listened to me for a long time, I've said since about 2000, maybe seven, because of the arrogance of Barack Obama.
00:03:10.480 I noticed it in him first.
00:03:13.500 And I prayed a lot about, okay, this is not a good development, the direction of our country.
00:03:22.800 What's going to happen?
00:03:24.760 And I was, I was overwhelmed with the feeling of a couple of things.
00:03:28.820 They're not enemies of yours.
00:03:31.600 They are enemies of freedom of mankind.
00:03:35.000 And that, that is on your stewardship.
00:03:38.600 But I'm the owner of those.
00:03:40.640 So this is not a fight you're fighting alone.
00:03:44.240 Second thing.
00:03:45.140 Watch their arrogance.
00:03:51.600 Because it will be their undoing in the end.
00:03:55.600 And I've waited, and I've waited, and I've patiently waited.
00:03:59.880 And I want to tell you, I think it's here.
00:04:03.420 Now, let me break this down into several categories.
00:04:07.260 And I will show you, there is very little you have to fight for.
00:04:13.200 There is a lot you need to stand for.
00:04:16.620 But very little you need to fight for.
00:04:20.200 Let's start here.
00:04:22.020 Abortion.
00:04:22.500 Is abortion the same topic, the same thing we're fighting, in the same way today as we were a year ago?
00:04:31.680 No.
00:04:33.120 Why?
00:04:34.540 Because of arrogance.
00:04:38.120 Think about what we have always traditionally been fighting for.
00:04:41.540 We've been fighting for the right of the child.
00:04:44.440 Other people have been fighting for the right of the mother.
00:04:46.660 And it was supposed to be safe, rare, and legal.
00:04:51.380 It's really no longer safe.
00:04:53.320 They're doing all kinds of practices to save time at Planned Parenthood that take the ultrasound out of it.
00:04:59.160 It is much safer if you use an ultrasound.
00:05:02.320 But they want to make money.
00:05:04.420 It is legal.
00:05:06.160 But now they're going for the infanticide rules.
00:05:12.160 So, legal, yeah, it has been legal.
00:05:18.000 But now they're going for something completely different.
00:05:21.900 And then, rare, no.
00:05:24.560 They're shouting the abortion.
00:05:26.420 And this started about a year ago where they were saying, we've got to shout our abortion.
00:05:30.460 We're really thrilled.
00:05:32.580 You know, there's nothing wrong with it.
00:05:34.500 One woman in Seattle was given a speech and she said, my first abortion was my best abortion.
00:05:39.620 And it happened in Seattle and it's craziness.
00:05:43.280 Then, their arrogance took them to say, we want to be able to kill an unwanted child after birth.
00:05:52.020 Just let them die.
00:05:53.000 Give birth.
00:05:53.980 Let them die.
00:05:55.960 That was way too far.
00:05:58.340 And what did they do?
00:05:59.740 They said, we want to light up the New York skyline pink in celebration of that.
00:06:06.980 Arrogance.
00:06:07.660 And their arrogance has led us to a place now to where people are waking up.
00:06:13.200 If you have seen the latest polls, there has been a massive shift towards life because of this.
00:06:21.940 A massive shift.
00:06:23.940 And I think we are, I think we're on the cusp of ending abortion as we know it.
00:06:29.180 I really do.
00:06:30.040 So, there's one.
00:06:33.560 Their arrogance.
00:06:34.520 They took it too far.
00:06:36.240 Look what happened just this week with the media and Trump.
00:06:40.500 They have been so arrogant for the last two years.
00:06:45.940 They have condemned him every step of the way.
00:06:49.520 They have not done what reasonable people do.
00:06:52.700 Look, I don't like this about him, but I do like this about him.
00:06:57.080 And if he is guilty, if he is a traitor to our country, if he is in bed with Russia, then he should be impeached.
00:07:05.320 He should probably go to jail.
00:07:07.160 That's what a normal human being would say.
00:07:12.540 But that's not what the media has been saying.
00:07:15.240 And so, they have overplayed their hand and they've wanted to get him because they were convinced in their arrogance they knew what happened.
00:07:24.640 Now that the facts are out and the investigation is over, they can't accept that.
00:07:29.880 And so, they're doubling down.
00:07:32.780 They cannot admit defeat.
00:07:35.560 Who does that?
00:07:36.980 A humble person or an arrogant person?
00:07:41.340 They can't admit that they were wrong.
00:07:44.480 Now, we've been saying for a while, get over it.
00:07:47.560 But now our Democratic voting neighbors, not the people in Washington, are neighbors.
00:07:52.200 They're saying the same thing to the media.
00:07:56.120 Get over it, man.
00:07:57.840 You're looking ridiculous.
00:08:02.260 Arrogance with the media.
00:08:05.080 Anti-Semitism.
00:08:06.180 Care.
00:08:08.380 Congresswoman Omar Ilan.
00:08:11.160 The Democrats won't condemn anti-Semitism.
00:08:15.780 When we all know what anti-Semitism is and we know why anti-Semitism.
00:08:19.940 Anti-Semitism is the canary in the coal mine.
00:08:23.180 It's like lynching.
00:08:24.880 We all know it when we see it.
00:08:26.600 And we all know that it's wrong.
00:08:28.760 But they won't do it.
00:08:29.940 Why?
00:08:30.340 Because they're in the pocket of care.
00:08:33.740 Americans, both Democrats, Republicans, also independents, we all know an unindicted co-conspirator is a bad thing.
00:08:44.140 A offshoot, an actual arm of the Muslim Brotherhood and a sister organization, literal sister organization to Hamas is care.
00:08:56.860 An unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation, which was financing terror.
00:09:04.500 Okay.
00:09:04.900 They've gotten so powerful that they think they can say and do anything.
00:09:11.240 But let me tell you, the first crisis and Americans will turn.
00:09:15.980 They're using the Jesse Smollett cover.
00:09:26.140 I'm a, I'm just, I'm, I'm a, I'm a burka wearing.
00:09:30.500 I'm a hijab wearing.
00:09:32.040 I'm a black.
00:09:32.940 I'm a oppressed minority.
00:09:35.560 They're using all of this stuff.
00:09:37.240 And it only plays for so long.
00:09:39.100 And the arrogance is, you Americans are too stupid to see the difference between a sister of Hamas and APEC.
00:09:51.220 You're just too stupid to see it.
00:09:53.340 So we're just going to, we're just going to roll right over you.
00:09:58.680 And it's the same thing with the border.
00:10:01.780 There, they used to be, everybody was for border security.
00:10:04.940 Come on.
00:10:05.520 Everyone is for some sort of border security.
00:10:08.440 Now the Democrats say they're for open borders.
00:10:11.800 Only the libertarians, I mean, and I mean the deep libertarians have been for fully open borders.
00:10:19.400 But even that comes with the caveat of, yeah, but no, no welfare state as well.
00:10:27.020 Everyone has been for this, but not now.
00:10:30.360 And they tried to make everybody in America feel like they're a racist if they want a border wall.
00:10:36.340 But what they don't understand is, the border wall isn't because we don't like Mexicans.
00:10:42.300 The border wall is because we don't trust Washington.
00:10:46.600 We don't believe that Washington will actually enforce any law for more than one term of a president.
00:10:53.300 If that.
00:10:54.320 And we know that there is trouble on the border.
00:10:57.620 We know that there are bad people coming in.
00:11:01.160 We know that there are also some good families that are coming in.
00:11:05.320 And nobody cares about the difference between the two.
00:11:09.140 We know that our cities are out of control because they become sanctuary cities.
00:11:16.360 And they have called us racist because we believe in the rule of law.
00:11:21.820 That's what that border wall represents.
00:11:24.060 Not a statement about Mexico, but a statement about the people we keep sending to Washington.
00:11:30.060 We don't trust them to protect the things that we value.
00:11:38.040 The arrogance, again, is you're racist.
00:11:42.580 That's their arrogance.
00:11:43.880 I'm not, but you are.
00:11:47.020 Socialism and the New Green Deal.
00:11:48.700 He was doing a stand-up comedy routine.
00:11:51.860 I don't know if you saw him yesterday,
00:11:53.600 but he had a picture of Reagan riding in on a Velociraptor,
00:11:59.300 as we all know,
00:12:00.760 happened in the last battle of the Cold War.
00:12:04.960 And he started there
00:12:06.540 and ended up with seahorses from Aquaman
00:12:10.200 being the only way to get to Hawaii.
00:12:13.800 And he was talking about the absurdity of all of this.
00:12:18.640 When Mike Lee is actually funny,
00:12:21.600 you're on the losing side.
00:12:25.680 When Mike Lee can take and show how crazy this is,
00:12:32.180 Mike Lee, and you'll laugh out loud,
00:12:34.900 you're on the wrong side.
00:12:38.100 Your arrogance has said,
00:12:40.340 everybody believes in global warming
00:12:42.840 and the science is settled
00:12:44.780 and I don't even have to talk to anybody about it.
00:12:48.320 Your arrogance of we're all socialists now,
00:12:51.860 no, we're not.
00:12:53.900 Your arrogance and social justice,
00:12:56.140 me too, Kavanaugh,
00:12:58.100 the Covington Catholic,
00:12:59.680 what did that turn into?
00:13:01.320 You are guilty
00:13:02.800 until you can prove yourself innocent.
00:13:06.300 But as we saw with Kavanaugh
00:13:08.140 and Covington Catholic,
00:13:09.640 it doesn't even matter
00:13:10.920 if you can prove yourself innocent,
00:13:12.780 you're guilty of something.
00:13:14.960 And the arrogance of the left
00:13:17.120 and the social justice warriors,
00:13:19.000 they are so convinced
00:13:20.780 that they are right on all of these things,
00:13:23.380 that there is a white original sin
00:13:27.980 that we must all pay for
00:13:29.860 and we must cleanse ourselves
00:13:31.900 of white people
00:13:33.160 and cleanse ourselves
00:13:34.860 of this love of country,
00:13:36.680 of constitution.
00:13:37.880 their arrogance
00:13:41.280 is destroying them.
00:13:43.920 And it started with Michael Brown.
00:13:46.900 I'm sorry,
00:13:47.240 it didn't start with Michael Brown.
00:13:48.300 It started with Henry Louis Gates
00:13:50.500 and the beer summit.
00:13:51.940 You remember that?
00:13:53.200 The president saying,
00:13:54.560 police acted stupidly.
00:13:55.820 He had nothing.
00:13:57.160 He had nothing.
00:13:58.080 And it turned out
00:13:58.840 that wasn't the case.
00:14:01.000 And he had to reverse himself
00:14:02.280 with a beer summit.
00:14:04.580 And it went on and on and on.
00:14:06.460 Michael Brown,
00:14:07.300 hands up,
00:14:07.900 don't shoot.
00:14:08.580 Wait a minute,
00:14:09.120 that guy,
00:14:10.500 that guy was,
00:14:11.700 was the guy saying,
00:14:13.140 hands up,
00:14:13.820 I'm going to rob you.
00:14:15.980 And he was turned into a victim.
00:14:19.020 And it is compounded
00:14:20.560 until we got to Jesse Smollett.
00:14:23.360 And I'm going to get into that
00:14:24.760 here in a second.
00:14:25.560 But when you have
00:14:26.480 Rahm Emanuel,
00:14:28.180 think of this,
00:14:28.800 Rahm Emanuel
00:14:30.200 from the Obama White House
00:14:32.200 saying that this is not justice.
00:14:36.740 When they are releasing
00:14:38.580 text messages
00:14:40.620 between this prosecutor, Fox,
00:14:44.780 and Michelle Obama's
00:14:46.700 chief of staff,
00:14:48.460 and showing,
00:14:49.340 wait a minute,
00:14:50.200 there's some sort of collusion here.
00:14:53.060 When you have George Soros
00:14:55.500 being outed now,
00:14:56.960 not by the right,
00:14:58.800 but being outed as,
00:15:00.700 this is the one
00:15:01.660 who put her into office.
00:15:04.060 And when you have people
00:15:05.120 like Rahm Emanuel
00:15:06.340 saying,
00:15:07.580 this is wrong,
00:15:09.420 this is dirty,
00:15:11.300 this is corrupt,
00:15:12.820 this is injustice,
00:15:15.200 wow,
00:15:16.680 you're seeing a change.
00:15:18.960 You're seeing a massive,
00:15:21.340 massive change.
00:15:22.660 because people feel it
00:15:25.020 in their bones
00:15:25.560 we're becoming
00:15:26.140 a mobocracy
00:15:27.040 and they don't
00:15:28.840 like it.
00:15:29.620 It's not
00:15:30.380 the way
00:15:30.980 Americans are.
00:15:33.140 Democrats
00:15:33.620 or Republicans.
00:15:36.280 I want to tell you
00:15:37.400 what happened
00:15:37.880 with Jesse Smollett
00:15:39.020 and I want to tell you
00:15:40.280 how we need
00:15:42.380 to behave.
00:15:43.500 There are not
00:15:44.280 things that we need
00:15:45.940 to fight for.
00:15:47.440 There are things
00:15:48.600 that we need
00:15:49.300 to stand for.
00:15:50.780 And I'll explain
00:15:52.540 that difference
00:15:53.440 and why it's
00:15:54.500 so important
00:15:55.180 because
00:15:56.240 things are changing.
00:15:58.960 Their own arrogance
00:16:00.140 is going to destroy them.
00:16:02.540 All we have to do
00:16:04.680 is welcome people
00:16:06.300 back home.
00:16:09.880 The best
00:16:10.680 of the Glenn Beck
00:16:11.320 program.
00:16:18.240 Like listening

00:16:23.380 And while you're there,
00:16:24.320 do us a favor
00:16:24.960 and rate the show.
00:16:26.260 Let's go to Chicago.
00:16:27.340 We have so many
00:16:28.040 things to cover.
00:16:28.880 Have a Naughty
00:16:30.540 is just a
00:16:31.420 just a comedy
00:16:32.820 fun fest
00:16:33.660 that we have
00:16:34.260 to get to
00:16:34.860 today.
00:16:36.080 But Smollett
00:16:37.560 has also happened
00:16:38.880 where yesterday,
00:16:39.940 in case you don't know,
00:16:41.160 he's the guy
00:16:42.380 that claimed
00:16:43.400 that he was
00:16:43.860 beaten up
00:16:44.460 in Chicago
00:16:45.060 by two men.
00:16:46.260 He identified
00:16:47.260 the men.
00:16:48.120 The police
00:16:48.680 said,
00:16:49.580 oh,
00:16:49.880 it's those guys
00:16:50.640 because we know
00:16:51.360 who those guys are.
00:16:52.440 And they turned out
00:16:53.540 to be friends
00:16:54.420 of Smollett.
00:16:55.220 They had video
00:16:56.340 of them buying
00:16:57.140 bleach and a rope.
00:16:58.480 They said
00:16:59.680 that he had
00:17:00.300 hired them
00:17:00.840 to do that.
00:17:02.980 Now,
00:17:04.100 how did this,
00:17:05.480 how were the charges
00:17:06.280 dismissed?
00:17:07.460 How were felony
00:17:08.580 charges dismissed?
00:17:10.200 We go to the guy
00:17:11.340 who has been
00:17:12.460 on this
00:17:12.980 from the beginning
00:17:14.460 and has had the balls
00:17:15.680 to say the truth
00:17:16.800 the whole time,
00:17:17.620 no matter where
00:17:18.440 the facts might lead.
00:17:19.900 It's
00:17:20.100 Rafer Weigel.
00:17:22.060 He is from
00:17:22.700 Fox 32
00:17:23.520 in Chicago.
00:17:25.060 Rafer,
00:17:25.820 what the hell
00:17:27.080 happened?
00:17:28.480 Yeah,
00:17:29.100 you know,
00:17:29.320 that's the big
00:17:29.800 question,
00:17:30.340 Glenn.
00:17:30.600 I'm sitting here
00:17:31.180 in my newsroom
00:17:31.660 right now.
00:17:32.260 I just finished
00:17:33.100 interviewing one
00:17:33.980 of Jesse Smollett's
00:17:34.820 lawyers,
00:17:35.320 Patricia Brown Holmes,
00:17:36.760 you know,
00:17:37.020 to go for 16
00:17:37.980 counts from a
00:17:39.240 grand jury
00:17:39.980 to we're throwing
00:17:41.180 out base.
00:17:41.640 How do you go
00:17:42.120 from point A
00:17:42.620 to point B?
00:17:43.820 She claims
00:17:44.640 that they were
00:17:45.300 able to convince
00:17:46.360 the state's
00:17:46.920 attorney's office
00:17:47.540 that they didn't
00:17:48.720 have a strong
00:17:49.260 enough case
00:17:49.820 and they weren't
00:17:50.440 going to win
00:17:51.240 the case.
00:17:53.080 Chicago police
00:17:54.000 dispute that.
00:17:55.260 They felt that
00:17:55.780 they had enough
00:17:56.420 evidence to put,
00:17:57.600 you know,
00:17:58.340 to win the
00:17:58.700 case handedly.
00:18:00.240 But in the end,
00:18:00.800 you know,
00:18:01.200 the optics on this
00:18:02.600 does not look good
00:18:03.580 to the state's
00:18:04.160 attorney's office,
00:18:04.860 especially in the
00:18:05.720 recent discoveries
00:18:07.280 from media outlets
00:18:08.200 like ours that,
00:18:08.980 you know,
00:18:09.460 uncovered the
00:18:10.000 email from Michelle
00:18:11.220 Obama's former
00:18:11.720 chief of staff
00:18:12.540 and also,
00:18:14.440 you know,
00:18:14.700 text messages to
00:18:15.620 a family member
00:18:16.760 of Jesse Smollett
00:18:17.460 to state's
00:18:18.540 attorney Kim Fox
00:18:19.100 essentially asking
00:18:19.780 her to make this
00:18:20.280 go away.
00:18:20.800 And then her office
00:18:21.800 does just that.
00:18:22.560 you know,
00:18:22.900 it doesn't look
00:18:23.440 good.
00:18:23.880 And,
00:18:24.140 but I guess
00:18:24.660 she figured
00:18:25.080 she picked
00:18:25.440 the lesser
00:18:25.780 of two evils
00:18:26.400 that if she
00:18:27.140 does take
00:18:27.600 this and she
00:18:28.920 loses,
00:18:29.880 you know,
00:18:30.340 then she becomes
00:18:31.200 a Marcia Clark.
00:18:32.340 So that's one theory.
00:18:34.180 Can you,
00:18:35.280 Rayford,
00:18:35.640 can you move
00:18:36.160 to another place
00:18:36.820 because you're
00:18:37.220 dropping out
00:18:38.480 so much.
00:18:39.060 We barely
00:18:40.120 understood the
00:18:40.920 Marcia Clark
00:18:41.760 comment that she
00:18:43.840 might look like
00:18:44.440 Marcia Clark.
00:18:45.660 Oh,
00:18:46.000 I apologize.
00:18:46.760 Is this any better?
00:18:47.860 Yes,
00:18:48.340 that's much,
00:18:48.860 that's much better.
00:18:49.500 Okay.
00:18:50.100 Okay.
00:18:50.380 So,
00:18:50.640 so,
00:18:51.080 so,
00:18:52.360 so tell me,
00:18:53.660 um,
00:18:54.440 does anybody
00:18:57.020 actually believe?
00:18:58.340 Cause I,
00:18:59.000 you know,
00:18:59.300 I do not want
00:19:00.420 to be like the
00:19:01.040 media with Donald
00:19:01.900 Trump.
00:19:02.460 You know,
00:19:03.220 if this is the
00:19:04.520 way that justice
00:19:05.520 system,
00:19:06.140 uh,
00:19:06.640 has decided
00:19:07.500 and it is fair
00:19:09.380 and on the up
00:19:10.120 and up,
00:19:10.640 I accept that,
00:19:12.600 but I,
00:19:13.940 I,
00:19:14.480 I,
00:19:14.720 I'm finding this
00:19:15.600 very hard to
00:19:17.260 stomach because
00:19:18.320 none of it
00:19:19.320 looks right.
00:19:20.540 None of it
00:19:20.960 looks right.
00:19:22.120 No,
00:19:22.640 and it's
00:19:23.000 mayor manual,
00:19:23.840 you know,
00:19:24.480 point blank,
00:19:25.320 he stopped short
00:19:25.980 of calling it
00:19:26.600 corruption.
00:19:28.160 Um,
00:19:28.580 it,
00:19:28.860 you know,
00:19:29.040 the theory is,
00:19:29.720 is that state's
00:19:30.940 attorney's office
00:19:31.480 or state's
00:19:31.960 drinking Fox
00:19:32.580 procured some
00:19:33.340 kind of political
00:19:34.200 favor to do
00:19:35.740 this,
00:19:36.080 but Smollett's
00:19:36.880 legal team
00:19:37.380 insist there
00:19:38.540 were just too
00:19:38.980 many holes in
00:19:39.460 the case.
00:19:39.800 And ultimately
00:19:40.320 it was going
00:19:41.100 to come down
00:19:41.660 to Jesse
00:19:42.780 Smollett's word
00:19:43.520 against the
00:19:44.040 Osindaro brothers.
00:19:45.180 And there
00:19:45.720 were some
00:19:46.200 credibility issues
00:19:47.240 with the
00:19:47.660 Osindaro brothers
00:19:48.600 and,
00:19:49.460 you know,
00:19:49.660 with their
00:19:49.960 word against
00:19:50.420 his,
00:19:50.960 you know,
00:19:51.160 all they
00:19:51.440 needed was
00:19:51.780 one juror
00:19:52.340 to find him,
00:19:53.060 you know,
00:19:53.260 a shadow of a
00:19:53.780 doubt and
00:19:54.300 nothing was
00:19:54.740 going to
00:19:54.940 happen to
00:19:55.380 Smollett.
00:19:56.320 And it,
00:19:56.780 you know,
00:19:57.160 Kim Fox
00:19:58.100 is not unique
00:19:58.920 in that she's
00:19:59.420 a state's
00:19:59.740 attorney who
00:20:00.040 likes to
00:20:00.340 win cases.
00:20:01.340 I think she
00:20:01.700 got scared.
00:20:02.260 I think she
00:20:02.500 just didn't
00:20:02.840 think she
00:20:03.100 was going
00:20:03.360 to win it
00:20:03.720 and she
00:20:04.000 didn't want
00:20:04.360 to have
00:20:04.600 the,
00:20:04.860 you know,
00:20:05.220 the optics of
00:20:05.820 that,
00:20:06.100 but the
00:20:06.320 optics of this
00:20:06.880 are even
00:20:07.140 worse.
00:20:07.600 Okay,
00:20:07.760 so wait a
00:20:08.120 minute,
00:20:08.280 wait a
00:20:08.480 minute.
00:20:09.180 I understand.
00:20:11.240 First of all,
00:20:12.080 we have the
00:20:13.260 video of them
00:20:14.440 buying the
00:20:14.980 rope and the
00:20:15.720 bleach.
00:20:16.240 Was there
00:20:16.860 some other
00:20:17.380 rope and
00:20:18.140 bleach project
00:20:19.300 they were
00:20:19.840 working on?
00:20:21.400 So I
00:20:22.400 understand,
00:20:23.360 I understand
00:20:24.020 that they had
00:20:24.620 credibility issues.
00:20:26.060 Fine.
00:20:26.360 Okay,
00:20:26.640 got it.
00:20:27.220 But it looks
00:20:28.080 pretty good.
00:20:29.020 But like you
00:20:29.680 said,
00:20:29.900 only one person
00:20:30.680 has to say
00:20:31.320 reasonable doubt.
00:20:32.460 I don't think
00:20:32.860 they did it.
00:20:33.220 And he's off.
00:20:34.420 You had 16
00:20:35.720 federal charges.
00:20:36.880 You don't get
00:20:38.140 16 hours in
00:20:39.960 rainbow push
00:20:41.140 and a $10,000
00:20:42.860 fine and the
00:20:44.760 ability to go
00:20:45.480 out and say,
00:20:46.100 yep,
00:20:46.620 I was exonerated.
00:20:47.800 I didn't do it.
00:20:49.680 Well,
00:20:49.720 and then the
00:20:50.080 interesting thing
00:20:50.720 is that the
00:20:51.440 state's attorney's
00:20:52.020 office talked
00:20:52.520 out of both
00:20:52.880 sides of their
00:20:53.300 mouth because
00:20:53.760 they dropped
00:20:54.160 the case,
00:20:54.600 but then they
00:20:54.900 turn around
00:20:55.260 and say that
00:20:55.660 he's not
00:20:56.040 exonerated.
00:20:56.880 We're not
00:20:57.380 saying he's
00:20:57.800 innocent.
00:20:58.220 We're just
00:20:58.500 not going to
00:20:58.840 pursue the
00:20:59.220 case.
00:20:59.520 Well,
00:20:59.620 that doesn't
00:20:59.960 seem to
00:21:00.260 make any
00:21:00.600 sense.
00:21:01.140 And,
00:21:01.540 you know,
00:21:01.720 if you're in
00:21:02.180 your police
00:21:02.600 department puts
00:21:03.340 in thousands
00:21:04.080 of man hours
00:21:04.900 into this
00:21:05.720 case and
00:21:06.160 they felt
00:21:06.520 they had a
00:21:07.080 stack of
00:21:07.760 evidence that
00:21:08.440 what we know
00:21:10.000 about is just
00:21:10.740 the tip of
00:21:11.220 the iceberg,
00:21:12.140 that they felt
00:21:12.720 they had an
00:21:13.200 open and shut
00:21:13.840 case and they
00:21:14.900 claimed that the
00:21:15.460 state's attorney
00:21:15.960 did not even
00:21:16.880 contact them
00:21:17.940 directly.
00:21:19.240 My sources at
00:21:20.000 PD said they
00:21:20.720 were at the
00:21:21.080 graduation ceremony
00:21:22.300 yesterday for
00:21:23.120 new recruits and
00:21:24.240 it was leaked
00:21:24.940 to them through
00:21:25.640 a source and
00:21:26.820 they called that
00:21:27.420 unprofessional and
00:21:28.540 disrespectful.
00:21:29.780 And I don't
00:21:29.980 think there's
00:21:30.360 anybody that
00:21:31.140 disagrees with
00:21:31.780 that who knows
00:21:32.500 anything.
00:21:32.920 I mean,
00:21:33.240 and now they've,
00:21:34.100 you know,
00:21:34.340 the state's
00:21:34.860 office has a
00:21:35.480 huge chasm
00:21:36.200 between the
00:21:36.680 Chicago Police
00:21:37.280 Department,
00:21:38.000 you know,
00:21:38.180 two arms of
00:21:38.860 the justice
00:21:39.240 system now
00:21:39.920 completely at
00:21:40.580 odds in a
00:21:41.080 city where you
00:21:41.580 already have
00:21:42.220 thousands of
00:21:43.000 crimes unsolved,
00:21:44.320 you know,
00:21:44.700 and solving
00:21:45.640 crimes are already
00:21:46.440 a problem.
00:21:47.120 So where does
00:21:47.740 this take us
00:21:48.300 into the future?
00:21:49.220 I mean,
00:21:49.500 it's a risk
00:21:50.100 reward thing and
00:21:51.600 it doesn't seem
00:21:52.800 that the risk
00:21:53.320 outraid the
00:21:53.780 reward,
00:21:54.540 at least from
00:21:55.100 a big picture.
00:21:56.660 Can we,
00:21:56.920 can we,
00:21:57.420 can we,
00:21:58.040 is there any
00:21:59.300 explanation on,
00:22:02.240 okay,
00:22:02.560 so if they say
00:22:03.280 they couldn't win
00:22:03.920 the case,
00:22:04.960 they convinced
00:22:05.660 them that it
00:22:06.180 would be really
00:22:06.640 tough.
00:22:07.560 Yeah,
00:22:07.840 well,
00:22:08.120 you know what,
00:22:08.580 we're both
00:22:09.040 rolling the dice,
00:22:09.860 aren't we?
00:22:10.220 Because he could
00:22:10.660 go to jail for
00:22:11.660 prison for,
00:22:13.260 you know,
00:22:14.020 20 years.
00:22:15.300 So,
00:22:15.800 well,
00:22:15.900 I guess we're
00:22:16.260 both rolling
00:22:16.780 the dice.
00:22:17.700 That's where
00:22:18.300 you negotiate.
00:22:19.860 How did they
00:22:20.680 negotiate?
00:22:21.460 Who negotiated
00:22:22.480 this deal?
00:22:23.540 There was no
00:22:24.380 negotiation,
00:22:25.220 it seems,
00:22:25.840 because,
00:22:26.340 you know,
00:22:26.800 Jesse Smollett
00:22:27.420 got everything
00:22:28.000 he wanted,
00:22:28.940 and all
00:22:29.840 the state's
00:22:30.840 attorney's
00:22:31.120 office got
00:22:31.560 $10,000
00:22:32.520 from his
00:22:33.140 bond proffer,
00:22:34.280 and they also
00:22:35.000 have sealed
00:22:35.540 the record,
00:22:36.120 so that my
00:22:36.540 Freedom of
00:22:36.960 Information Act
00:22:37.640 request won't
00:22:38.960 be granted.
00:22:40.040 I won't be able
00:22:40.580 to see that
00:22:41.080 video or see
00:22:41.680 any of the
00:22:42.060 evidence that
00:22:42.540 the anonymous
00:22:42.860 will.
00:22:44.200 And so what
00:22:44.660 did the state
00:22:45.100 attorney get out
00:22:45.840 of this?
00:22:46.300 I mean,
00:22:46.600 you're right,
00:22:47.400 it was a
00:22:47.900 total sweetheart
00:22:48.740 deal,
00:22:50.100 and you just
00:22:51.480 have to go,
00:22:52.200 well,
00:22:52.420 what did Kim
00:22:53.060 Fox get out
00:22:54.000 of this?
00:22:54.400 Now,
00:22:54.620 they insist
00:22:55.340 that she was
00:22:56.420 not the one
00:22:57.040 that did
00:22:57.880 this because
00:22:58.360 she had
00:22:58.780 recused
00:22:59.240 herself.
00:22:59.820 I can tell
00:23:00.280 you,
00:23:01.060 nobody's
00:23:01.600 buying that.
00:23:02.620 You know,
00:23:02.880 nobody outside
00:23:03.780 of Smollett's
00:23:04.320 legal team
00:23:04.920 has told me
00:23:06.240 that they're
00:23:06.500 buying that
00:23:06.960 one.
00:23:07.500 So,
00:23:07.660 I mean,
00:23:09.360 Mayor Emanuel
00:23:10.860 basically came
00:23:11.560 out and said
00:23:11.940 it without
00:23:12.200 saying it.
00:23:12.760 Something
00:23:13.160 changed hands
00:23:13.900 here.
00:23:14.140 There was
00:23:14.380 some kind
00:23:14.760 of quid
00:23:15.020 pro quo,
00:23:15.680 we just
00:23:16.180 don't know
00:23:16.480 what it
00:23:16.800 is,
00:23:17.220 and it
00:23:17.720 doesn't
00:23:18.020 look good.
00:23:18.700 So is
00:23:19.040 this going
00:23:19.620 to the
00:23:20.320 FBI?
00:23:20.960 Is anybody
00:23:21.380 going to
00:23:21.960 look into
00:23:22.400 this?
00:23:23.500 Well,
00:23:23.680 the Fraternal
00:23:24.060 Order of
00:23:24.400 Felice is
00:23:24.820 asking for
00:23:27.040 an internal
00:23:27.520 investigation
00:23:28.220 arguing that
00:23:29.240 Kim Foxx may
00:23:29.980 have broken
00:23:30.340 the law
00:23:30.720 because she
00:23:31.240 supposedly
00:23:31.680 recused
00:23:32.140 herself from
00:23:32.660 this case
00:23:33.160 and then
00:23:33.800 her office
00:23:34.180 goes ahead
00:23:34.640 and throws
00:23:34.980 it out the
00:23:35.340 window.
00:23:35.980 They feel
00:23:36.460 that that's
00:23:36.840 a violation
00:23:37.360 and possibly
00:23:37.980 illegal.
00:23:38.740 The other
00:23:39.060 thing that's
00:23:39.480 potentially a
00:23:40.780 problem for
00:23:41.260 Smollett is
00:23:41.840 the FBI
00:23:43.080 investigating,
00:23:44.060 the U.S.
00:23:44.400 Postal Service
00:23:44.920 investigating that
00:23:45.720 letter,
00:23:46.460 the mail fraud,
00:23:47.500 potential terrorism
00:23:48.520 charge,
00:23:49.340 and I know a
00:23:49.860 lot of your
00:23:50.140 listeners are
00:23:50.660 big on the
00:23:52.380 deep state
00:23:52.720 conspiracy that
00:23:53.460 the FBI
00:23:53.880 has been
00:23:54.160 politicized.
00:23:55.020 Well,
00:23:55.220 you know what,
00:23:55.480 there's going
00:23:55.700 to be a lot
00:23:55.960 of attention
00:23:56.320 to what
00:23:57.320 they do
00:23:57.680 here.
00:23:58.320 And if
00:23:58.720 they decide
00:23:59.180 that they
00:23:59.460 don't want
00:23:59.900 to go
00:24:00.060 forward and
00:24:00.540 persecute
00:24:01.480 Smollett on
00:24:02.300 any charges,
00:24:03.200 then they
00:24:03.540 might be
00:24:03.860 accused of
00:24:04.320 the exact
00:24:04.700 same thing.
00:24:05.220 But as far
00:24:05.620 as we know,
00:24:06.160 they are still
00:24:06.680 investigating that
00:24:07.500 and if they
00:24:07.840 come down
00:24:08.200 with federal
00:24:08.580 charges,
00:24:09.060 well,
00:24:09.200 that's not
00:24:09.580 something that's
00:24:10.120 going to get
00:24:10.380 thrown out.
00:24:10.840 So that could
00:24:11.160 potentially be
00:24:11.800 real trouble
00:24:12.700 for Smollett
00:24:13.220 and that is
00:24:13.800 still right now
00:24:14.580 as of this
00:24:15.000 moment looming
00:24:15.580 for him.
00:24:16.340 One of the
00:24:16.660 things that
00:24:17.040 amazes me
00:24:17.720 is when I
00:24:18.260 listen to
00:24:18.920 nine solid
00:24:20.280 minutes of
00:24:20.920 Rahm Emanuel
00:24:21.540 and he
00:24:22.780 sounds like
00:24:23.740 me,
00:24:25.220 something has
00:24:27.140 fundamentally
00:24:27.940 changed.
00:24:31.180 Something has
00:24:32.040 changed.
00:24:33.060 It's brought
00:24:33.560 a lot of
00:24:33.920 people together
00:24:34.500 as much as
00:24:35.040 it's divided
00:24:35.460 people apart.
00:24:36.200 And it is
00:24:36.500 interesting,
00:24:37.040 Glenn,
00:24:37.180 that initially
00:24:37.640 when this
00:24:38.040 came out,
00:24:38.520 you know,
00:24:38.720 it was pretty
00:24:39.160 much divided
00:24:39.680 amongst racial
00:24:40.320 and party
00:24:40.700 lines.
00:24:41.520 You know,
00:24:41.680 the liberals
00:24:42.040 on the left
00:24:42.520 were in favor
00:24:42.960 of Smollett.
00:24:43.500 The right
00:24:43.840 thought he made
00:24:44.760 it up.
00:24:45.080 When it came
00:24:45.480 out with the
00:24:46.100 superintendents
00:24:46.660 with all the
00:24:47.100 evidence that
00:24:47.560 they had,
00:24:48.640 then it shifted.
00:24:49.900 You know,
00:24:50.060 there was a lot
00:24:50.580 less support for
00:24:52.260 Smollett.
00:24:52.500 On the left
00:24:53.200 and even
00:24:53.520 along racial
00:24:54.060 lines.
00:24:55.040 And,
00:24:55.300 you know,
00:24:55.640 I don't know
00:24:56.520 if that's
00:24:57.400 changed.
00:24:57.980 I'm not sure
00:24:58.440 that it has
00:24:58.980 been changed.
00:24:59.660 I think a lot
00:25:00.180 of people
00:25:00.500 wanted to
00:25:01.620 find out
00:25:02.000 for sure.
00:25:02.780 You know,
00:25:02.960 it's almost
00:25:03.280 like you're
00:25:03.720 watching a
00:25:04.560 football game
00:25:05.440 and you're
00:25:06.800 getting ready
00:25:07.160 to go to
00:25:07.480 the fourth
00:25:07.820 quarter with
00:25:08.620 the game
00:25:08.900 tied and
00:25:09.380 then you
00:25:09.580 said,
00:25:09.800 you know,
00:25:09.980 we're going
00:25:10.180 to call
00:25:10.520 a game.
00:25:11.360 And people
00:25:11.740 feel like,
00:25:12.300 you know,
00:25:12.480 they wanted
00:25:12.840 to see this
00:25:13.380 play out,
00:25:14.600 but,
00:25:14.840 you know,
00:25:15.100 definitely the
00:25:15.620 police wanted
00:25:16.060 to see this
00:25:16.560 play out.
00:25:16.860 Well,
00:25:16.960 I will
00:25:17.360 tell you
00:25:17.640 this.
00:25:17.940 The problem
00:25:18.500 is,
00:25:19.140 is that
00:25:19.860 the state's
00:25:22.760 attorney did
00:25:23.500 not,
00:25:24.740 they are
00:25:25.640 allowing him
00:25:26.840 to claim
00:25:28.600 that he
00:25:29.660 won,
00:25:30.260 that he
00:25:30.540 was vindicated
00:25:31.440 and the
00:25:32.500 left is
00:25:33.440 going to
00:25:33.980 use that.
00:25:34.680 He's already
00:25:35.200 used that.
00:25:35.800 The arrogance
00:25:37.340 of Empire
00:25:38.440 and the
00:25:38.860 writers coming
00:25:39.560 out immediately
00:25:40.560 saying,
00:25:41.740 we'll see you
00:25:42.460 Wednesday night,
00:25:44.000 meaning we'll
00:25:44.940 welcome him
00:25:45.640 back and we
00:25:46.760 welcome you
00:25:47.440 back because
00:25:47.900 we were
00:25:48.280 right all
00:25:48.720 along.
00:25:49.600 That is not
00:25:50.560 going to sit
00:25:51.300 well with
00:25:51.820 people who
00:25:52.360 actually believe,
00:25:53.440 forget about
00:25:53.860 race,
00:25:54.640 who believe
00:25:55.260 in justice.
00:25:57.220 Right.
00:25:57.560 And people
00:25:58.200 who are,
00:25:58.740 you know,
00:25:59.140 victims of
00:25:59.860 hate crimes
00:26:00.360 are no people
00:26:00.900 who have been
00:26:01.300 victims of
00:26:01.820 legitimate hate
00:26:03.000 crimes.
00:26:03.500 You know,
00:26:03.780 it's,
00:26:04.540 it's interesting.
00:26:05.660 It's just,
00:26:06.000 it's going to
00:26:06.360 leave a lot of
00:26:06.880 open wounds.
00:26:07.420 When he walked
00:26:08.040 out of the
00:26:08.380 courthouse,
00:26:09.000 I was actually
00:26:09.700 the only reporter
00:26:10.400 outside waiting
00:26:11.060 for him because
00:26:11.560 I knew he
00:26:11.920 wasn't going
00:26:12.220 to answer
00:26:12.500 anything inside.
00:26:13.200 So I waited
00:26:13.560 outside and we
00:26:14.220 went along and
00:26:14.700 said,
00:26:15.060 are you,
00:26:15.340 do you feel
00:26:15.800 vindicated?
00:26:16.280 He said,
00:26:16.420 yes,
00:26:16.640 I do.
00:26:17.660 But then he
00:26:18.200 didn't answer
00:26:18.600 any other
00:26:18.860 questions after
00:26:19.420 that,
00:26:19.660 but he said
00:26:20.020 it with,
00:26:20.340 you know,
00:26:20.560 such conviction
00:26:21.340 and,
00:26:22.340 and you're
00:26:23.080 right.
00:26:23.320 It's,
00:26:23.540 it's,
00:26:23.940 you know,
00:26:24.200 look,
00:26:24.740 the guy feels
00:26:25.240 emboldened
00:26:25.760 and why
00:26:26.500 wouldn't he?
00:26:27.080 I mean,
00:26:27.260 look,
00:26:27.540 they gave him
00:26:28.660 a sweetheart deal
00:26:29.300 without him
00:26:29.760 having to give
00:26:30.220 up anything
00:26:30.720 in return,
00:26:31.720 except for
00:26:32.300 community service
00:26:33.140 that we didn't
00:26:33.620 even know about
00:26:34.320 until later in
00:26:34.980 the day yesterday.
00:26:36.080 I mean,
00:26:36.200 initially they
00:26:36.640 announced that
00:26:37.020 they were going
00:26:37.280 to drop the
00:26:37.660 charges and
00:26:38.080 and said,
00:26:38.340 well,
00:26:38.420 why?
00:26:38.660 Well,
00:26:38.740 he did
00:26:38.920 community service.
00:26:39.620 Well,
00:26:39.720 what did he do
00:26:40.140 that?
00:26:40.480 Well,
00:26:41.120 it was a while
00:26:41.660 ago.
00:26:41.980 I mean,
00:26:42.140 it was very
00:26:42.580 ambiguous and
00:26:43.320 strange.
00:26:43.820 The whole thing,
00:26:45.020 you know,
00:26:45.760 whether you're
00:26:46.140 partisan on this
00:26:46.720 or not,
00:26:47.040 I just,
00:26:47.460 objectively looking
00:26:48.340 at it,
00:26:48.620 the whole thing
00:26:49.240 is very,
00:26:50.100 very confusing.
00:26:51.240 What do we
00:26:51.480 look for next?
00:26:52.700 We look for
00:26:53.340 the FBI
00:26:53.820 investigation into
00:26:55.060 the mail,
00:26:55.640 into the letter.
00:26:56.400 That's,
00:26:56.680 that's the next
00:26:57.160 thing we look at.
00:26:58.060 I don't think
00:26:58.680 that my sources
00:26:59.320 are telling me
00:26:59.840 that they,
00:27:00.220 you know,
00:27:00.400 the DOJ is
00:27:01.080 probably not
00:27:01.500 going to take
00:27:01.880 this up
00:27:02.220 and look
00:27:02.460 at any
00:27:02.720 proprieties
00:27:03.220 from Kim
00:27:03.520 Foxx's office
00:27:04.100 because it's
00:27:04.420 not that
00:27:04.700 important of
00:27:05.060 a case.
00:27:05.520 You know,
00:27:05.620 this isn't
00:27:05.960 Rod Blagojevich,
00:27:07.360 you know,
00:27:07.680 in a corruption
00:27:08.160 case.
00:27:08.640 This is a guy
00:27:09.240 with,
00:27:09.540 you know,
00:27:10.320 a felony,
00:27:11.020 you know,
00:27:11.580 disorderly conduct
00:27:12.280 charge.
00:27:12.780 So they're
00:27:13.160 probably just
00:27:13.700 going to let
00:27:14.000 it slide.
00:27:15.280 So really,
00:27:15.940 it comes down
00:27:16.440 to the federal
00:27:16.820 investigation.
00:27:17.720 And,
00:27:17.860 you know,
00:27:17.980 I've often said
00:27:18.680 hang on,
00:27:19.980 what does that
00:27:20.560 do to the city?
00:27:22.740 Exactly.
00:27:23.400 That is a very
00:27:24.400 real question,
00:27:25.580 Glenn,
00:27:26.040 because this is
00:27:26.880 already,
00:27:27.440 you know,
00:27:28.260 a city where,
00:27:29.020 you know,
00:27:30.300 behind closed
00:27:30.980 doors,
00:27:31.640 there was already
00:27:32.460 a strained
00:27:32.860 relationship between
00:27:33.800 the Chicago Police
00:27:34.580 Department and
00:27:35.600 the state's
00:27:36.000 attorney's office.
00:27:36.620 They wouldn't
00:27:36.940 acknowledge it
00:27:37.540 publicly,
00:27:38.200 but there has
00:27:39.040 been that case
00:27:39.640 because I know
00:27:40.240 police are
00:27:40.680 frustrated because
00:27:41.380 quite often
00:27:42.200 they've turned
00:27:42.980 over evidence,
00:27:43.640 they felt that
00:27:44.140 they had an
00:27:44.540 open and shut
00:27:45.160 case,
00:27:45.640 and the state's
00:27:46.080 attorney's office
00:27:46.580 decides not to
00:27:47.320 move forward.
00:27:47.780 And that's
00:27:48.040 pretty common.
00:27:48.900 But now this
00:27:49.540 is the first time
00:27:50.180 they've come out
00:27:50.660 publicly and blasted
00:27:52.000 that office,
00:27:52.700 and now the
00:27:53.500 relationship is
00:27:54.280 really strained.
00:27:55.480 What does this
00:27:56.140 do for solving
00:27:56.780 crime going
00:27:57.340 forward?
00:27:58.320 You know,
00:27:58.600 I mean,
00:27:58.840 this is going
00:28:00.840 to be a huge
00:28:01.480 blow to their
00:28:02.200 morale.
00:28:02.900 They did all
00:28:03.400 this work,
00:28:03.860 they presented
00:28:04.300 the case,
00:28:04.780 they put it
00:28:05.140 in front of
00:28:05.540 her,
00:28:05.660 and they
00:28:05.840 decided,
00:28:06.380 yeah,
00:28:06.960 you know
00:28:07.120 what,
00:28:07.240 we're not
00:28:07.460 going to
00:28:07.600 move forward.
00:28:08.500 So,
00:28:08.880 I mean,
00:28:09.180 this could
00:28:09.440 have long-term
00:28:09.960 ramifications,
00:28:10.640 and I don't
00:28:11.300 feel it is
00:28:11.800 good for the
00:28:12.240 city.
00:28:12.640 You know,
00:28:12.960 people can
00:28:13.340 argue it's
00:28:13.920 not a violent
00:28:14.420 crime.
00:28:14.860 Why waste
00:28:15.280 the money
00:28:15.580 and the
00:28:15.800 taxpayer money
00:28:16.400 to go forward?
00:28:17.440 Well,
00:28:17.900 this is about
00:28:18.520 the relationship
00:28:19.200 between these
00:28:19.820 two arms of
00:28:20.360 the justice
00:28:20.720 system here in
00:28:21.780 Chicago that
00:28:22.420 right now
00:28:22.980 really don't
00:28:23.560 like each
00:28:23.940 other.
00:28:25.220 Rafer,
00:28:25.680 thank you so
00:28:26.120 much.
00:28:26.560 Rafer Weigel
00:28:27.200 from Fox 32
00:28:28.720 and the
00:28:29.620 reporter who
00:28:30.400 has broken
00:28:31.400 this open
00:28:32.180 wide.
00:28:33.300 We look
00:28:33.800 forward to
00:28:34.160 talking to
00:28:34.540 you again
00:28:34.860 when there's
00:28:35.220 a new
00:28:35.840 development.
00:28:36.440 Thank you so
00:28:36.740 much,
00:28:36.940 Rafer.
00:28:37.240 Appreciate it.
00:28:37.680 Anytime,
00:28:37.900 sir.
00:28:38.120 Thank you.
00:28:38.340 Bye-bye.
00:28:42.180 This is the
00:28:43.280 best of the
00:28:43.800 Glenn Beck
00:28:44.200 program.
00:28:53.560 We have
00:28:55.800 a good
00:28:56.440 friend and
00:28:57.120 just,
00:28:57.540 I mean,
00:28:57.900 I think
00:28:58.240 this guy
00:28:58.600 is an
00:28:58.840 American
00:28:59.160 hero.
00:28:59.860 David Horowitz
00:29:00.540 is with
00:29:02.240 us.
00:29:02.660 Hello,
00:29:02.880 David,
00:29:03.100 how are
00:29:03.340 you?
00:29:04.380 Hi,
00:29:04.760 Glenn.
00:29:05.420 Glenn,
00:29:05.820 thank you
00:29:06.260 for all
00:29:07.200 the great
00:29:07.600 work you
00:29:08.060 do.
00:29:08.660 Thank you.
00:29:09.860 I know
00:29:10.780 it's always
00:29:11.100 a mutual
00:29:11.520 admiration
00:29:12.060 society
00:29:12.560 whenever we
00:29:13.100 talk to
00:29:13.420 each other
00:29:13.760 because I
00:29:14.260 so respect
00:29:15.000 you.
00:29:15.720 I want
00:29:16.400 to ask
00:29:16.640 you just
00:29:16.860 before we
00:29:17.280 get into
00:29:17.760 what you're
00:29:18.760 scheduled to
00:29:19.380 talk about,
00:29:19.940 I want to
00:29:20.360 talk to
00:29:20.600 you just
00:29:20.940 to get
00:29:21.220 some quick
00:29:21.820 highlight
00:29:22.320 thoughts on
00:29:23.240 a couple
00:29:23.560 of things.
00:29:25.140 The way
00:29:25.980 the media
00:29:26.460 is now
00:29:27.660 treating
00:29:28.600 the Mueller
00:29:29.580 report,
00:29:30.440 what are
00:29:31.020 your thoughts
00:29:31.620 now about
00:29:32.420 what's
00:29:33.260 coming or
00:29:34.200 what all
00:29:35.300 of this
00:29:35.620 means?
00:29:37.320 Well,
00:29:38.060 we're still
00:29:39.320 in the midst
00:29:39.980 of the
00:29:41.020 first
00:29:41.420 attempted
00:29:42.700 coup in
00:29:43.540 the history
00:29:44.000 of the
00:29:44.280 country.
00:29:45.600 And it's
00:29:46.080 a coup
00:29:46.400 that was
00:29:46.820 led,
00:29:47.420 of course,
00:29:48.240 by the
00:29:48.520 Obama
00:29:48.900 himself
00:29:50.260 and the
00:29:50.860 Obama
00:29:51.220 White
00:29:51.600 House,
00:29:52.380 but by
00:29:52.820 our
00:29:53.000 intelligence
00:29:53.660 agencies
00:29:55.100 and how
00:29:56.920 corrupt
00:29:57.380 they are.
00:29:59.440 I don't
00:30:00.460 know if
00:30:00.740 it shocked
00:30:01.180 you,
00:30:01.500 but it
00:30:01.760 shocked
00:30:02.100 me.
00:30:02.540 I've been
00:30:02.720 in politics
00:30:03.280 all these
00:30:03.860 years.
00:30:04.260 I just
00:30:04.580 couldn't
00:30:05.660 believe it.
00:30:06.280 So they're
00:30:06.600 not going
00:30:06.920 to stop
00:30:07.460 until they
00:30:08.120 run into,
00:30:08.900 you know,
00:30:09.100 I've always
00:30:09.540 said this,
00:30:10.120 the left
00:30:10.540 only stops
00:30:11.560 when it
00:30:12.440 runs into
00:30:12.940 a wall.
00:30:13.540 Now,
00:30:14.880 let me ask
00:30:15.260 you this,
00:30:16.500 I think
00:30:16.980 there is
00:30:17.400 a wall
00:30:17.820 that is
00:30:18.180 coming.
00:30:18.580 I think
00:30:18.820 they've
00:30:19.140 overplayed
00:30:20.020 their hand,
00:30:21.320 and I'm
00:30:21.860 hopeful of
00:30:22.900 this,
00:30:23.420 with abortion,
00:30:24.740 with the
00:30:25.060 Smollett case,
00:30:26.260 with the
00:30:27.200 way the
00:30:27.540 media is
00:30:28.140 behaving.
00:30:29.080 I think
00:30:30.020 that they
00:30:31.060 have,
00:30:31.920 you know,
00:30:32.420 Covington
00:30:32.900 Catholic,
00:30:33.400 they've just
00:30:34.120 overplayed
00:30:34.960 this and
00:30:35.480 misread the
00:30:37.060 American people.
00:30:38.420 We're not
00:30:39.000 all socialists.
00:30:39.940 We're not
00:30:40.280 all radicals.
00:30:41.120 We don't
00:30:41.460 want this.
00:30:41.960 And I
00:30:42.180 think there
00:30:42.540 are some
00:30:43.060 Democrats,
00:30:43.840 and I don't
00:30:44.300 mean the
00:30:44.720 ones in
00:30:45.160 Washington,
00:30:45.860 I mean our
00:30:46.260 neighbors,
00:30:46.760 that are
00:30:47.120 starting to
00:30:47.540 wake up
00:30:47.840 and go,
00:30:48.640 I don't
00:30:49.160 want any
00:30:49.580 of this
00:30:49.960 stuff.
00:30:50.380 This is
00:30:50.720 crazy.
00:30:52.000 Agree or
00:30:52.380 disagree?
00:30:53.740 I keep
00:30:54.280 my greatest
00:30:56.620 worry is
00:30:57.260 that they're
00:30:57.600 going to
00:30:58.360 arrest
00:30:58.900 Cortez for
00:30:59.900 the crime
00:31:00.380 she's already
00:31:01.060 committed.
00:31:02.180 I want her
00:31:02.700 out front
00:31:03.400 and up
00:31:03.920 front.
00:31:04.900 The same
00:31:05.300 with that
00:31:05.680 Ilhan Omar.
00:31:07.260 We have
00:31:07.880 a Muslim
00:31:09.040 Brotherhood
00:31:09.680 caucus in
00:31:10.440 the Congress.
00:31:11.140 I know.
00:31:13.400 I just
00:31:14.360 wanted to
00:31:14.940 speak to
00:31:16.340 what you
00:31:16.660 said at
00:31:17.040 the outset.
00:31:18.160 I am
00:31:18.640 an agnostic,
00:31:20.560 which means
00:31:21.840 I just
00:31:22.240 don't know.
00:31:23.160 Right.
00:31:23.760 It's different
00:31:24.440 from atheism
00:31:25.360 as a religion.
00:31:26.480 Correct.
00:31:27.100 It's a
00:31:27.420 faith.
00:31:29.760 But when
00:31:30.860 I was
00:31:31.200 leaving the
00:31:31.800 radical left,
00:31:33.520 I tried to
00:31:34.300 re-examine
00:31:35.220 the country
00:31:35.780 we had
00:31:36.480 set out
00:31:36.940 to destroy.
00:31:37.880 And the
00:31:39.820 first thing
00:31:40.300 that occurred
00:31:40.760 to me
00:31:41.140 is the
00:31:42.980 inalienable
00:31:43.900 rights to
00:31:45.440 life,
00:31:45.840 liberty,
00:31:46.240 and the
00:31:46.480 pursuit of
00:31:46.980 happiness,
00:31:48.080 which even
00:31:48.580 radicals
00:31:49.320 think they
00:31:51.200 want to
00:31:54.120 embrace.
00:31:55.040 You can't
00:31:55.960 have inalienable
00:31:56.980 rights unless
00:31:58.400 there's a
00:31:58.960 God.
00:32:00.480 Because if
00:32:01.780 it isn't
00:32:02.160 given by
00:32:02.720 divinity,
00:32:04.040 these rights,
00:32:04.740 it's given
00:32:05.880 by government
00:32:06.600 so government
00:32:07.300 can take
00:32:07.860 them away.
00:32:09.440 And that
00:32:10.260 was an easy
00:32:10.860 thought.
00:32:11.380 The harder
00:32:11.760 one was
00:32:12.240 for an
00:32:13.360 agnostic
00:32:13.900 to embrace
00:32:14.760 it.
00:32:15.440 Right.
00:32:15.900 But it
00:32:16.780 immediately
00:32:17.280 occurred to
00:32:17.920 me again
00:32:18.380 that you
00:32:19.640 have to
00:32:20.060 have a
00:32:20.420 respect for
00:32:21.860 the belief
00:32:22.380 in God
00:32:22.980 and a
00:32:24.980 respect for
00:32:25.660 the people
00:32:26.300 who believe
00:32:27.620 in God.
00:32:28.740 And if you
00:32:29.460 don't have
00:32:30.000 that, you
00:32:30.500 can't defend
00:32:31.160 your own
00:32:31.560 freedoms.
00:32:32.840 That's
00:32:33.280 where I
00:32:33.600 began.
00:32:34.220 All right.
00:32:34.600 So let me
00:32:35.120 take you
00:32:35.420 back a
00:32:35.860 little bit
00:32:36.120 further.
00:32:36.340 Because you
00:32:36.560 talk about
00:32:37.060 this.
00:32:37.700 This is a
00:32:38.520 very critical
00:32:39.580 book.
00:32:40.020 And it's
00:32:40.240 short.
00:32:41.140 It's easy
00:32:41.540 to read.
00:32:41.940 It's called
00:32:42.200 Dark Agenda,
00:32:43.500 The War to
00:32:44.180 Destroy
00:32:44.580 Christian
00:32:45.140 America.
00:32:46.140 And I
00:32:46.760 want to
00:32:47.040 take people
00:32:48.140 back.
00:32:48.680 You, in
00:32:49.400 one of the
00:32:49.700 chapters,
00:32:50.040 talk about
00:32:50.720 your friend
00:32:52.000 Betty Van
00:32:53.020 Patten, who
00:32:54.100 was killed
00:32:54.560 by the
00:32:55.020 Black
00:32:55.280 Panthers.
00:32:56.080 And this
00:32:56.900 was the
00:32:57.520 change.
00:32:58.160 This is
00:32:58.480 where they
00:32:59.000 overplayed
00:32:59.760 their hand
00:33:00.180 and you
00:33:00.400 went, wait
00:33:00.700 a minute,
00:33:00.980 this doesn't
00:33:01.940 fit with
00:33:03.540 what I
00:33:03.820 believe, or
00:33:04.920 what I
00:33:05.220 thought we
00:33:05.620 believed.
00:33:06.340 Explain.
00:33:08.040 Well, yeah,
00:33:09.840 I was involved
00:33:12.440 with murderers
00:33:13.460 and there
00:33:14.900 was no
00:33:15.840 way to,
00:33:17.460 you know,
00:33:18.580 of course,
00:33:18.920 you can't
00:33:19.340 correct when
00:33:19.940 they killed
00:33:21.340 a dozen
00:33:22.240 people, the
00:33:23.480 Black
00:33:23.760 Panthers.
00:33:27.840 By the
00:33:29.300 way,
00:33:30.160 Jesse
00:33:30.400 Smollett's
00:33:31.080 mother is a
00:33:31.700 Black
00:33:31.960 Panther is
00:33:32.740 her closest
00:33:33.860 friend is
00:33:34.560 Angela
00:33:34.920 Davis, so
00:33:35.720 it all
00:33:37.360 goes back.
00:33:40.940 But again,
00:33:41.940 I learned to
00:33:43.540 appreciate that
00:33:44.320 America, when
00:33:45.040 America makes
00:33:46.480 mistakes, when
00:33:47.380 it does deeds
00:33:48.760 that are
00:33:49.300 criminal or
00:33:50.420 wrong, it
00:33:51.640 finds a way
00:33:52.500 to correct
00:33:53.140 them.
00:33:53.660 It finds a
00:33:54.540 way to
00:33:55.440 try to
00:33:56.500 figure out
00:33:57.040 what happened
00:33:57.800 so it won't
00:33:58.840 happen again.
00:33:59.560 the left
00:34:00.560 never looks
00:34:01.120 back.
00:34:02.640 The left
00:34:03.200 commits, you
00:34:05.220 know, look
00:34:06.940 at the
00:34:07.140 Vietnam War.
00:34:08.800 The left
00:34:09.680 wasn't
00:34:10.100 anti-war, it
00:34:11.860 was anti-American
00:34:12.840 when the
00:34:14.160 communists
00:34:14.720 slaughtered
00:34:15.900 two and a
00:34:16.340 half million
00:34:17.040 Indo-Chinese
00:34:18.600 peasants.
00:34:19.860 There wasn't a
00:34:20.740 single protest,
00:34:21.760 not one.
00:34:22.280 the left
00:34:23.680 never examines
00:34:25.140 its own
00:34:25.640 crimes, which
00:34:26.380 are monstrous,
00:34:28.220 and so it
00:34:28.880 can never
00:34:29.260 correct them.
00:34:31.460 And of
00:34:31.880 course, you
00:34:33.120 know, to
00:34:34.160 be a
00:34:34.520 Christian or
00:34:35.120 a Jew,
00:34:36.500 if you are
00:34:38.420 a believer,
00:34:39.960 is to be
00:34:40.920 humbled.
00:34:42.740 You
00:34:42.960 understand that
00:34:43.880 we're the
00:34:44.260 problem.
00:34:45.420 You understand
00:34:46.040 that inside
00:34:46.760 every individual
00:34:47.960 is the
00:34:49.160 problem,
00:34:49.660 that leads
00:34:53.980 to the
00:34:54.360 social problems
00:34:55.480 that we
00:34:55.960 confront,
00:34:56.900 that people
00:34:57.480 are corrupt,
00:34:58.760 they lie,
00:34:59.720 they cheat,
00:35:00.500 they're
00:35:01.080 narcissistic,
00:35:03.720 they think
00:35:04.080 about themselves
00:35:04.840 first.
00:35:07.120 The lying
00:35:07.860 is one of
00:35:09.120 the biggest
00:35:09.660 of the sins
00:35:11.660 that people
00:35:12.300 regularly and
00:35:14.080 daily commit.
00:35:15.900 So you,
00:35:16.920 it gives you
00:35:17.900 a caution
00:35:18.700 before you're
00:35:20.220 going to
00:35:20.520 tear up
00:35:21.080 everything
00:35:21.560 and remake
00:35:23.920 the world.
00:35:25.340 And when
00:35:25.740 you look at
00:35:26.280 somebody like
00:35:27.060 this empty
00:35:28.660 headed Cortez
00:35:29.640 woman,
00:35:30.600 you're horrified
00:35:31.600 by her
00:35:33.920 shallowness
00:35:34.740 and her
00:35:36.200 obvious
00:35:36.700 willingness.
00:35:37.600 They will
00:35:38.080 do anything
00:35:39.480 to try to
00:35:40.920 achieve
00:35:41.500 their goals.
00:35:45.740 The idea
00:35:46.260 of confiscating
00:35:47.240 how many
00:35:47.720 million
00:35:48.280 gasoline
00:35:49.260 cars are
00:35:50.040 there?
00:35:50.760 250 million
00:35:52.200 probably,
00:35:53.020 maybe 300
00:35:53.740 million.
00:35:55.700 And they
00:35:56.300 want to
00:35:56.540 take away
00:35:57.100 these cars
00:35:58.240 in a 10
00:35:59.500 year period.
00:36:01.020 How are
00:36:01.880 they going
00:36:02.120 to do
00:36:02.420 that
00:36:02.780 without
00:36:04.360 instituting
00:36:05.080 a police
00:36:05.600 state?
00:36:06.800 And they
00:36:07.380 will have
00:36:07.660 no hesitation
00:36:08.520 about doing
00:36:09.300 it,
00:36:10.260 the police
00:36:10.740 state.
00:36:11.100 I thought
00:36:13.620 the Kavanaugh
00:36:14.220 hearings were
00:36:14.880 horrifying.
00:36:15.700 Horrifying.
00:36:17.080 Horrifying.
00:36:17.940 You know,
00:36:19.440 she was
00:36:19.960 a liar
00:36:21.660 from the
00:36:22.180 get-go.
00:36:24.300 Why were
00:36:25.040 they even
00:36:25.360 talking about
00:36:26.060 an incident
00:36:26.560 that happened
00:36:27.120 34 years
00:36:27.980 ago?
00:36:28.580 It happened
00:36:28.800 that allegedly
00:36:30.100 happened 34
00:36:31.020 years ago
00:36:31.880 between two
00:36:33.120 high school
00:36:34.180 students at a
00:36:35.540 drunken party
00:36:36.460 where there
00:36:37.320 was actually
00:36:37.880 no sex
00:36:38.600 anyway.
00:36:39.860 How could
00:36:40.520 you put
00:36:41.180 that before
00:36:41.840 the nation
00:36:43.460 and shred
00:36:44.240 a man's
00:36:45.560 reputation?
00:36:48.140 With the
00:36:49.180 Democrats,
00:36:49.820 there's nothing
00:36:50.540 they're not
00:36:50.960 capable of.
00:36:52.020 I never
00:36:52.540 thought I'd
00:36:53.100 live to see
00:36:53.660 the day
00:36:54.140 that they
00:36:54.900 would pass
00:36:55.420 laws to
00:36:57.000 allow you
00:36:57.520 to kill
00:36:58.020 a child
00:36:59.140 that's been
00:36:59.640 born.
00:37:01.060 Never,
00:37:01.520 never would
00:37:02.320 have occurred
00:37:02.760 to me I
00:37:03.200 would have
00:37:03.480 denied it.
00:37:05.040 And here
00:37:05.360 we are.
00:37:05.980 David,
00:37:06.660 again,
00:37:07.480 I think
00:37:07.720 they're
00:37:07.880 overplaying
00:37:08.340 their hand,
00:37:08.800 they're
00:37:08.940 misreading
00:37:09.400 the people
00:37:09.880 because I
00:37:10.240 think that
00:37:10.840 a lot of
00:37:11.900 people feel
00:37:12.460 this way.
00:37:13.520 In the book
00:37:14.300 you talk
00:37:15.760 about
00:37:16.500 Madeline
00:37:18.540 Murray O'Hare
00:37:20.020 and you
00:37:21.620 talk about
00:37:22.220 the Supreme
00:37:22.960 Court decision
00:37:24.000 of school
00:37:25.160 prayer and
00:37:25.660 you say
00:37:26.120 there's a
00:37:28.820 real huge
00:37:29.720 impact from
00:37:30.640 there.
00:37:32.200 Yeah,
00:37:32.540 the left
00:37:33.040 found an
00:37:34.540 institution,
00:37:35.380 actually there's
00:37:35.920 a liberal
00:37:36.360 who wrote
00:37:36.760 a book
00:37:37.160 calling the
00:37:38.420 Supreme
00:37:38.740 Court the
00:37:39.240 most dangerous
00:37:39.980 branch.
00:37:41.140 The Supreme
00:37:41.920 Court,
00:37:42.300 it's nine
00:37:42.900 lawyers appointed
00:37:44.680 for life by
00:37:45.680 politicians.
00:37:47.220 How could that
00:37:48.840 go wrong?
00:37:49.380 what they did
00:37:53.720 was, you
00:37:55.020 know, you
00:37:55.340 just changed
00:37:56.040 the fundamental
00:37:56.620 law of the
00:37:57.320 United States
00:37:57.980 overnight with
00:37:59.220 no basis in
00:38:00.060 the Constitution
00:38:00.900 and they did
00:38:02.100 it at the
00:38:02.520 behest of
00:38:03.140 this Madeline
00:38:03.740 Murray O'Hare
00:38:04.600 who was a
00:38:05.760 lunatic.
00:38:06.300 she ended up
00:38:09.080 getting murdered
00:38:09.740 by one of
00:38:10.320 her followers.
00:38:11.140 She was just
00:38:11.620 a crazy
00:38:12.220 person.
00:38:13.200 She tried
00:38:13.720 to defect
00:38:14.300 to the
00:38:14.640 Soviet Union
00:38:15.440 with her
00:38:15.820 family right
00:38:17.140 before she
00:38:17.760 launched her
00:38:18.420 school campaign
00:38:19.440 and the
00:38:20.980 Russians
00:38:21.660 refused to
00:38:23.340 let her in
00:38:23.860 because they
00:38:24.280 thought she
00:38:24.760 was a
00:38:25.100 nutcase.
00:38:26.560 But the
00:38:27.100 progressives on
00:38:29.200 the Supreme
00:38:29.780 Court treated
00:38:31.420 her like she
00:38:32.100 was somebody
00:38:33.360 to be taken
00:38:34.060 seriously and
00:38:35.900 they just
00:38:37.520 stripped the
00:38:38.260 schools of
00:38:39.840 any, you
00:38:40.900 can't refer to
00:38:41.740 religion, you
00:38:42.820 can't teach that
00:38:43.680 the pilgrims were
00:38:45.340 Christians or
00:38:46.900 that they were
00:38:47.340 fleeing religious
00:38:48.120 persecution.
00:38:50.280 They stripped
00:38:51.420 generations of
00:38:53.820 American school
00:38:54.760 children and
00:38:55.440 still are doing
00:38:57.000 it of any
00:38:58.720 understanding of
00:38:59.640 how they have
00:39:00.240 the freedoms
00:39:00.760 they have.
00:39:01.680 I will tell
00:39:02.260 you, David,
00:39:02.640 when I read
00:39:04.820 the book and
00:39:05.880 reading prayer in
00:39:07.240 schools in
00:39:07.660 particular, I
00:39:08.360 learned something.
00:39:09.260 I thought prayer
00:39:09.920 in school, because
00:39:10.380 I grew up in a
00:39:10.940 Catholic school, so
00:39:12.020 I thought prayer
00:39:12.540 in school was
00:39:13.400 something like
00:39:14.340 we had with
00:39:15.520 Catholics or
00:39:16.520 that it was
00:39:18.660 Jesus heavy or
00:39:20.240 whatever.
00:39:20.860 And for the
00:39:21.420 first time, I
00:39:23.080 saw the 23
00:39:24.320 word text of
00:39:25.460 the prayer that
00:39:26.400 was the problem
00:39:27.540 and listened to
00:39:28.860 it.
00:39:29.060 In case, most
00:39:29.760 people I don't
00:39:30.160 think have ever
00:39:30.540 heard this,
00:39:31.460 Almighty God,
00:39:32.640 we acknowledge
00:39:33.360 our dependence
00:39:34.100 upon thee, and
00:39:35.540 we beg thy
00:39:36.360 blessings upon
00:39:37.160 us, our
00:39:37.800 parents, our
00:39:38.420 teachers, and
00:39:39.180 our country.
00:39:39.740 Amen.
00:39:41.060 You eliminate
00:39:41.780 that.
00:39:42.660 You eliminate
00:39:43.180 humility.
00:39:45.220 You eliminate
00:39:45.740 the thought of
00:39:47.820 others before
00:39:49.040 us.
00:39:49.900 You eliminate
00:39:50.580 the idea that
00:39:53.740 our parents and
00:39:54.920 our teachers and
00:39:56.580 our country, they
00:39:58.120 are worth
00:39:59.000 something.
00:39:59.900 they are worth
00:40:00.940 praying for.
00:40:02.300 I mean, it's
00:40:02.860 amazing how
00:40:04.780 non-denominational,
00:40:07.060 how non-objectionable
00:40:09.760 this really is,
00:40:11.580 except for the
00:40:12.360 few that say,
00:40:13.660 I won't
00:40:13.940 recognize a God.
00:40:16.960 And it doesn't
00:40:17.460 even pick a God.
00:40:18.740 I always thought
00:40:19.340 it was like,
00:40:19.880 Jesus, it doesn't
00:40:21.020 even pick a God.
00:40:21.940 No, you
00:40:23.160 know, I went
00:40:25.240 to school when
00:40:25.880 there was no
00:40:26.380 prayer in the
00:40:27.060 schools, and
00:40:28.300 the prayer was
00:40:29.040 the Lord's
00:40:29.600 prayer, which
00:40:30.100 is the
00:40:30.420 Christian prayer.
00:40:32.060 And as a
00:40:32.820 youngster, I
00:40:33.540 just was
00:40:33.920 fascinated.
00:40:35.180 I loved the
00:40:35.880 language.
00:40:36.980 You know, it's
00:40:37.360 not into
00:40:37.840 temptation, and
00:40:39.020 for thine is
00:40:39.720 the power and
00:40:40.560 kingdom and
00:40:41.480 the glory.
00:40:42.000 I couldn't
00:40:44.620 understand why
00:40:45.360 they took it
00:40:45.820 out of the
00:40:46.180 schools.
00:40:49.460 It's what
00:40:50.140 communists do.
00:40:51.080 They erase the
00:40:51.860 past, and then
00:40:52.580 they rewrite it.
00:40:54.340 And when you
00:40:55.320 say humility, to
00:40:56.600 me, that's the
00:40:57.400 key.
00:40:57.900 It is.
00:40:58.540 They mock
00:40:58.800 people who
00:41:00.520 pray.
00:41:03.220 But, again,
00:41:04.900 this is a
00:41:06.040 testament really
00:41:07.580 from the
00:41:08.040 outside.
00:41:09.580 I think it
00:41:10.620 has a lot of
00:41:11.200 power, because
00:41:11.980 of that.
00:41:13.080 If I think
00:41:13.660 about prayer, the
00:41:14.500 first thing that
00:41:15.280 occurs to me is
00:41:17.180 that when you
00:41:17.680 pray, the
00:41:18.860 first thing that
00:41:20.360 happens is you
00:41:21.240 are humbled.
00:41:23.280 And the thing
00:41:23.980 that's totally
00:41:24.860 missing from
00:41:25.700 progressives is
00:41:26.620 humility.
00:41:28.040 They have no
00:41:28.880 respect for
00:41:29.640 other people, or
00:41:31.260 people who
00:41:31.800 disagree with
00:41:32.440 them.
00:41:33.200 They think
00:41:33.760 they're like
00:41:34.980 gods.
00:41:36.240 And then you
00:41:36.680 recall the
00:41:38.040 Genesis story.
00:41:40.620 And what is
00:41:41.100 the serpent?
00:41:41.600 often tell Adam
00:41:43.260 and Eve that
00:41:45.120 lures them out
00:41:46.040 of paradise.
00:41:47.800 If you eat of
00:41:48.580 that tree, you
00:41:49.980 shall be as
00:41:50.700 God.
00:41:51.700 It's that
00:41:52.420 arrogance.
00:41:53.700 That's why they
00:41:54.460 kill so many
00:41:55.220 people.
00:41:56.700 It's all
00:41:57.320 justified for
00:41:59.220 them by the
00:42:00.580 glorious world
00:42:02.240 that we're going
00:42:02.620 to bring about.
00:42:03.560 David, it's been
00:42:04.700 too long since we
00:42:05.400 have talked.
00:42:06.540 I'd like to talk
00:42:07.500 to you again.
00:42:08.120 Maybe we'll have
00:42:08.560 you in and do
00:42:09.800 a podcast with
00:42:10.620 you.
00:42:11.200 The name of
00:42:12.240 the book is
00:42:12.960 Dark Agenda,
00:42:14.120 The War to
00:42:14.740 Destroy Christian
00:42:16.380 America by David
00:42:17.420 Horowitz.
00:42:18.100 It is a must-read
00:42:19.620 and something that
00:42:20.340 everyone should have,
00:42:21.260 not only because of
00:42:22.840 who David Horowitz
00:42:23.740 is and the
00:42:24.480 perspective that he
00:42:25.480 has, but because
00:42:26.580 this really shows
00:42:28.540 clearly what is
00:42:30.760 happening to us
00:42:31.860 and what is not
00:42:33.200 only happened,
00:42:34.100 but is still
00:42:35.320 going on.
00:42:36.100 Dark Agenda,
00:42:37.000 The War to
00:42:38.440 Destroy Christian
00:42:39.200 America by David
00:42:40.100 Horowitz,
00:42:40.920 available now.
00:42:46.460 You're listening to
00:42:47.600 the best of the
00:42:48.300 Glenn Beck
00:42:48.700 program.
00:42:59.380 Bridget Phetasy,
00:43:00.620 she is a writer
00:43:01.340 and the host
00:43:01.920 of Walk-In's
00:43:03.120 Welcome.
00:43:04.500 She has just
00:43:05.320 written something
00:43:05.740 for The Spectator,
00:43:06.900 Stop Wasting
00:43:07.500 Your Money on
00:43:08.260 College, and
00:43:09.240 Bridget, I got to
00:43:10.180 tell you, it's
00:43:10.560 very, very funny
00:43:11.580 and right on
00:43:12.920 the money.
00:43:13.960 Welcome to the
00:43:14.420 program.
00:43:14.800 How are you?
00:43:15.660 I'm great.
00:43:16.240 Thank you for
00:43:16.620 having me.
00:43:17.160 How old are
00:43:18.480 you?
00:43:19.320 I'm 40.
00:43:20.600 You're 40.
00:43:21.840 I am.
00:43:22.540 And you
00:43:23.120 dropped out of
00:43:23.840 college your
00:43:25.120 first year.
00:43:26.520 Yeah, many,
00:43:27.400 many moons ago.
00:43:28.400 I dropped out
00:43:29.120 after the first
00:43:31.300 half of my
00:43:31.960 freshman year.
00:43:34.180 And you
00:43:34.380 dropped out.
00:43:35.440 I mean, that was
00:43:35.940 at a time when
00:43:36.680 everybody must have
00:43:38.000 thought you were
00:43:38.400 crazy.
00:43:38.800 Nobody was talking
00:43:39.500 about indoctrination
00:43:40.420 or cost of school
00:43:41.600 or alternative
00:43:43.200 ways to learn
00:43:44.480 anything.
00:43:45.180 Why did you
00:43:45.580 drop out?
00:43:47.100 I'm the oldest
00:43:47.900 of five, and it
00:43:48.840 was pretty mandatory
00:43:49.780 that I go.
00:43:50.800 It was just
00:43:51.260 expected.
00:43:51.920 And after my
00:43:53.580 first semester, I
00:43:55.540 saw, I didn't, I
00:43:57.540 knew I wanted to
00:43:58.120 be a writer, and I
00:43:59.480 saw what my loans
00:44:01.180 were after one
00:44:02.440 semester, and I
00:44:04.220 just played the
00:44:05.600 tape forward.
00:44:06.520 I saw that,
00:44:07.480 basically, if I got
00:44:08.940 out of college, I
00:44:09.640 would have these
00:44:10.160 loans, that I
00:44:11.400 would be strapped
00:44:12.360 to the loans, and
00:44:14.340 then I would end
00:44:15.320 up having to take
00:44:16.020 jobs that I hated
00:44:16.900 and probably not be
00:44:18.940 able to do what I
00:44:19.940 wanted to do, which
00:44:20.860 was right, and so
00:44:22.600 I felt like I
00:44:23.400 already knew how
00:44:24.100 to write, and I
00:44:25.280 knew basic grammar,
00:44:26.280 and I took my
00:44:27.400 chances, and it
00:44:28.400 was, I mean, a
00:44:29.820 long road, but I
00:44:31.720 don't regret that
00:44:32.900 decision for two
00:44:33.720 seconds.
00:44:34.840 I'm currently
00:44:35.780 having the
00:44:36.660 discussion, my
00:44:37.420 kids are 12 and
00:44:39.180 14, my youngest,
00:44:40.700 my two eldest, went
00:44:42.240 to college, but
00:44:44.500 now I just, I,
00:44:45.800 because of
00:44:46.200 indoctrination, the
00:44:47.440 debt, the
00:44:49.400 ridiculousness of
00:44:52.120 it, you don't
00:44:53.120 need it.
00:44:54.180 I mean, unless
00:44:54.560 you're going to
00:44:54.780 be a doctor, you
00:44:56.380 know, then you
00:44:57.520 need it, but if
00:44:59.320 for an average
00:45:00.440 job, you can go to
00:45:01.260 a trade school, or
00:45:02.140 you can learn
00:45:02.780 online, it's
00:45:04.360 endless the way
00:45:05.340 you can learn.
00:45:07.140 That's the thing,
00:45:07.920 there's so many
00:45:08.620 other opportunities.
00:45:09.740 You could go to a
00:45:11.120 community college for
00:45:12.100 two years and
00:45:12.860 transfer and get,
00:45:14.200 go to a state
00:45:14.900 school for the final
00:45:15.860 two and still get a
00:45:17.460 degree.
00:45:17.720 If you're really
00:45:18.480 gung-ho on getting
00:45:19.920 a degree, or you
00:45:21.100 just want to go to
00:45:21.880 school to learn and
00:45:23.800 try and figure out
00:45:24.860 what you're interested
00:45:25.500 in, which fair
00:45:26.280 enough, I had the
00:45:27.700 blessing of knowing
00:45:28.720 what I wanted to do
00:45:30.140 pretty young, and
00:45:31.580 that is something
00:45:32.440 that I also don't
00:45:33.700 take for granted, and
00:45:34.660 I know that many
00:45:35.540 people don't have
00:45:36.520 that kind of vision
00:45:37.900 or drive.
00:45:38.700 But you know
00:45:38.960 what?
00:45:39.460 You don't, why
00:45:40.920 would you spend
00:45:42.240 a hundred thousand
00:45:44.040 dollars?
00:45:44.860 I have no idea.
00:45:45.640 To find yourself?
00:45:46.980 That's Rule's
00:45:47.660 ridiculous thing I've
00:45:48.820 ever heard.
00:45:49.500 There's no return on
00:45:50.580 investment, especially
00:45:51.440 with the liberal arts
00:45:53.120 schools now, the way
00:45:54.240 that they are.
00:45:55.100 I put a, I'm working
00:45:56.500 on a piece and put a
00:45:57.400 call out for people to
00:45:59.240 tell me how they were
00:45:59.960 self-censoring, and
00:46:01.280 many of the emails that
00:46:03.120 I've received are from
00:46:04.420 students and colleges
00:46:05.900 who feel like they
00:46:08.000 can't express their
00:46:09.600 opinion, their true
00:46:11.320 opinion, which to me is
00:46:12.420 insane because college is
00:46:13.900 where you're supposed to
00:46:14.840 learn how to
00:46:15.340 critically think.
00:46:16.460 And I feel like that is
00:46:18.200 not the primary
00:46:20.020 motivation of
00:46:22.700 teachers these days.
00:46:24.320 Even in schools younger
00:46:26.040 than college, but in
00:46:27.100 college in particular.
00:46:28.560 You write, for most of
00:46:30.940 you, however, college will
00:46:32.020 be a four-year exercise in
00:46:33.640 binge drinking,
00:46:34.600 procrastinating, and
00:46:36.000 chaining yourself to the
00:46:37.160 dean's office in protest of
00:46:38.680 a guest speaker who offends
00:46:39.960 your delegate sensibilities.
00:46:41.320 It's a bubble in which you
00:46:43.280 will more than likely
00:46:44.240 develop an Adderall
00:46:45.440 addiction, a crippling
00:46:46.940 anxiety disorder only
00:46:48.540 exasperated by cry
00:46:50.320 closets, and an attitude
00:46:52.220 of enlightenment and
00:46:53.440 moral superiority about
00:46:54.920 privilege that will serve
00:46:56.600 you well as a blogger in
00:46:58.100 the outrage industrial
00:46:59.260 complex and literally
00:47:00.560 nowhere else in life
00:47:02.260 ever.
00:47:04.220 How is that not worth the
00:47:05.320 money?
00:47:05.600 I don't understand.
00:47:06.120 By the way, there's four
00:47:06.700 more paragraphs that I'd like
00:47:08.120 to read on that, but it's
00:47:09.340 the same kind of gist.
00:47:10.680 Do you get it?
00:47:12.000 I think we're, you know,
00:47:13.480 it's obviously written quite
00:47:14.960 tongue-in-cheek and, and,
00:47:16.740 um...
00:47:17.360 No, but it's true.
00:47:18.660 It is funny the way you say
00:47:20.260 it, but it's true.
00:47:21.180 You'll learn to indulge your
00:47:22.320 feelings and believe that
00:47:23.300 everyone else is responsible
00:47:24.500 for them.
00:47:25.180 You'll come to expect trigger
00:47:26.620 warnings and safe spaces and
00:47:28.340 everyone handling you with
00:47:29.640 kid gloves.
00:47:30.620 Basically, you won't want to
00:47:31.860 learn...
00:47:32.140 Basically, you won't learn
00:47:33.440 much about life.
00:47:34.940 It's all the freedom of
00:47:36.300 adulthood with none of the
00:47:37.720 responsibilities or
00:47:38.780 consequences.
00:47:39.420 That's all right.
00:47:41.600 It was interesting getting
00:47:42.820 out of...
00:47:43.340 It was interesting being one
00:47:44.660 of the people that didn't go
00:47:45.980 to college and then seeing my
00:47:48.020 friends get out of college and
00:47:50.040 not have any idea how to do
00:47:52.000 anything.
00:47:52.800 They don't teach you anything.
00:47:54.600 I mean, I had at that point
00:47:56.340 registered my car and had to go
00:47:59.660 get an apartment and all of
00:48:01.640 these very basic practical life
00:48:03.900 skills.
00:48:04.300 And my friends who just spent
00:48:06.220 $100,000 on college couldn't do
00:48:09.140 any of that.
00:48:10.380 And what are you learning
00:48:11.880 exactly?
00:48:12.960 And if you get out of school with
00:48:14.720 a degree, for instance, in
00:48:16.440 gender studies, what are you
00:48:18.980 going to do other than blog or
00:48:21.720 teach gender studies?
00:48:23.640 I really don't understand.
00:48:25.660 I'm sure someone will school me
00:48:28.460 online with the other things you
00:48:30.000 can do with this degree.
00:48:30.940 But from my perspective, it's not
00:48:33.460 practical.
00:48:34.820 And how are you adding to...
00:48:38.760 I think that the students that
00:48:40.540 I've witnessed coming out seem to
00:48:42.600 have, you know, hand me a job
00:48:44.620 because I went to college.
00:48:45.880 So there's this attitude of just
00:48:47.600 entitlement to life owing you
00:48:50.640 something, as I said.
00:48:52.120 And also just this inability to
00:48:55.980 fail.
00:48:56.840 You have to learn how to fail in
00:48:59.220 life.
00:48:59.560 We can't shield our kids from
00:49:03.200 messing up.
00:49:04.640 I have to tell you, I had dinner
00:49:08.500 with several people from Rwanda.
00:49:12.060 And there were, I think, five
00:49:14.820 women and a couple of guys that
00:49:17.280 had come over from Rwanda and had
00:49:19.280 gotten scholarships at Harvard and
00:49:22.660 everywhere else.
00:49:24.100 And these great schools gave them
00:49:26.300 scholarships.
00:49:26.760 And all of them but one were
00:49:29.920 studying architecture, public
00:49:32.840 systems, as far as, you know, water
00:49:35.680 systems.
00:49:36.560 They were farming.
00:49:38.060 All these things.
00:49:39.280 One, one chose to stay here and
00:49:43.440 she was going to use her degree in
00:49:47.200 feminine studies, women's studies and
00:49:51.760 and the Holocaust.
00:49:53.640 And I thought, you know, here are, I
00:49:56.960 don't remember how many there were
00:49:57.880 five or six people.
00:49:59.760 Five of them are going back and they
00:50:02.280 are going to make their country
00:50:03.980 better, legitimately going to help
00:50:06.280 build their country.
00:50:07.720 They're living in a country that did
00:50:09.480 have a Holocaust, but it is the most
00:50:11.800 remarkable story of healing I've ever
00:50:14.540 seen that you will never see in any
00:50:16.680 grievance class.
00:50:17.820 And she's staying here.
00:50:20.040 It was just, it was so remarkable to
00:50:22.800 me of what a waste that was.
00:50:26.820 I, I, yeah, I don't know.
00:50:29.720 I don't know enough about those, the
00:50:32.320 individuals.
00:50:33.000 And I would say that in situations
00:50:35.820 like that, I'm not sure what inspires
00:50:38.460 an individual to make a decision like
00:50:40.360 that.
00:50:40.780 I, I could say my, I mean, I write, but
00:50:43.920 I sometimes joke that I'm pretty
00:50:46.100 useless, you know, like if the dollar
00:50:48.400 collapses and like the, or the, we
00:50:50.680 all, if something happens and the grid
00:50:53.000 goes down, I'm going to be, I'm going
00:50:56.500 to be pretty pointless.
00:50:58.060 You and I don't want to be around each
00:50:59.600 other because they will, they will
00:51:00.860 actually eat you second to last because
00:51:03.740 you'll at least be able to birth
00:51:05.580 children.
00:51:06.380 I'm the first one to go.
00:51:08.260 I have no skills whatsoever except
00:51:11.240 storytelling.
00:51:12.100 And that one gets old really fast when
00:51:15.160 people are hungry.
00:51:16.400 I'm 40 though.
00:51:17.760 So the, uh, the birth, the birthing
00:51:19.800 years are, you know, approaching.
00:51:21.920 You better hope for the whole, you
00:51:23.100 better, you better, you better hope for
00:51:25.260 the meltdown to happen soon.
00:51:27.240 Otherwise you and me.
00:51:28.760 It needs to happen in the next couple
00:51:29.340 of years or I'm just basically going to
00:51:31.920 be food on the barbie.
00:51:34.100 Bridget, do you see that, that there's a,
00:51:35.860 there's a real advantage for people
00:51:37.660 coming out of high school in, in that
00:51:39.740 four or four plus year headstart, you
00:51:43.740 know, where you have not only the
00:51:45.160 financial part of the headstart where
00:51:47.000 you're maybe a hundred thousand
00:51:47.940 dollars ahead of the game with no
00:51:49.660 debt, but also you're, you're able to
00:51:51.720 work during that time and learn the
00:51:55.000 business that you want to go into when
00:51:57.500 everyone else is, you know, screwing
00:51:58.980 around at college.
00:52:00.660 Yeah, I, I, I definitely, you know
00:52:04.400 what I learned how to be a hustler and
00:52:06.700 not a hustler in the bad sense of the
00:52:09.400 work.
00:52:11.160 Are you there?
00:52:12.140 Go ahead.
00:52:12.520 My, my phone may die.
00:52:16.320 It's a, it's a landline and apparently
00:52:18.960 the batteries die in like five seconds.
00:52:21.900 Wow.
00:52:22.360 A landline.
00:52:23.560 Who has one?
00:52:24.420 They still make them.
00:52:25.640 Wow.
00:52:26.400 It's my apocalypse fears.
00:52:28.700 No, I think that it taught me just how to,
00:52:31.640 I have the confidence to be able to find.
00:52:35.400 You're got, you're got, Bridget, if you
00:52:37.640 can still hear us, this is why you don't
00:52:39.320 have a landline.
00:52:40.140 This used to be for cell phones.
00:52:42.380 Can you hear me?
00:52:43.200 Yes.
00:52:43.640 All right.
00:52:44.040 So can you, you hear me, can you hear
00:52:46.360 me now?
00:52:47.020 Is there, now?
00:52:47.880 I can hear you guys joking about how this
00:52:51.340 segment was about how we can use a landline.
00:52:55.200 All right.
00:52:55.900 So, so Bridget, here's, here's the thing,
00:52:58.240 here's the thing that, uh, I just read
00:53:01.600 this the other day and it's the only thing
00:53:03.480 that gave me pause.
00:53:04.680 It's my son, uh, you know, he, he's not
00:53:08.340 going, he, he wants to be, uh, either like
00:53:12.040 a nurse practitioner or something like
00:53:13.920 that, uh, uh, or, uh, a structural engineer,
00:53:17.860 which he has to go to college for both of
00:53:19.940 those things.
00:53:20.900 There's other options in front of him that
00:53:22.740 don't require college.
00:53:24.100 And I just read two days ago that made me
00:53:26.600 go, geez, I don't want to screw up my
00:53:28.040 son's life.
00:53:28.680 It said, uh, that, uh, those that do not
00:53:32.960 have a college degree, men or boys that
00:53:35.560 don't have a college degree now, uh, they
00:53:38.540 have a full, like a 40% unemployment rate.
00:53:43.340 So I don't want to doom my kid to, you
00:53:47.940 know, a future of, of unemployment, but at
00:53:52.120 least he would be unemployed with no debt.
00:53:54.560 I mean, that's, that's, that's kind of how
00:53:59.800 I feel about what, why is it, uh, what, why
00:54:02.620 is this the unemployment, right?
00:54:04.440 What are the reasons that they cite just
00:54:06.620 not having a degree?
00:54:07.800 Because it's a chicken and egg situation,
00:54:09.400 right?
00:54:09.660 A lot of people who, you know, the society
00:54:11.720 says, if you're responsible, you go to
00:54:13.220 college.
00:54:13.540 So therefore people who aren't responsible
00:54:15.480 don't go to college.
00:54:16.680 Right.
00:54:16.800 Or you're a dummy.
00:54:17.600 You were not smart enough to get a
00:54:19.080 degree.
00:54:19.560 So everybody's got to have a college
00:54:21.900 degree.
00:54:22.180 So you just immediately brush off those who
00:54:24.040 don't.
00:54:25.520 Right.
00:54:26.140 Right.
00:54:26.720 I, I'm, so when I, one of the things I
00:54:30.000 were saying when I got cut off is that
00:54:31.500 it taught me how the, that extra four
00:54:33.900 years that I had in that space, I found
00:54:36.980 my way into jobs that you would
00:54:39.200 traditionally maybe need a degree for
00:54:41.040 just because of tenacity or you meet
00:54:43.160 people or you're out in the work field.
00:54:45.000 One of which was working with autistic
00:54:47.320 kids.
00:54:47.760 And I was an aid privately because they
00:54:51.260 didn't want people who had been trained
00:54:52.980 in behavioral.
00:54:53.860 They wanted more artistic people who
00:54:56.480 might be able to think outside the box
00:54:58.500 to do this program that then the families
00:55:01.200 trained me in.
00:55:02.320 And then I had all this life experience.
00:55:04.300 And in a field like that, you really
00:55:06.620 can't, you can't put, you know, if I
00:55:08.800 wanted to go work for a school system, of
00:55:10.580 course I would need a degree, but to work
00:55:12.700 privately, I, with, if you have a gift
00:55:16.280 with, you know, in a certain area and it's
00:55:19.920 an area where it's something like kids
00:55:22.800 with autism where it's challenging and
00:55:24.940 they're not going to care if you have a
00:55:27.160 degree or not, if you're, if you have
00:55:29.240 experience.
00:55:29.860 And I think that, you know, I was reading
00:55:34.660 an article the other day that I received a
00:55:37.400 lot of pushback on this, obviously, and it
00:55:39.260 was about how the, the, the death rate is
00:55:43.220 higher for people who don't go to college.
00:55:45.040 And again, there's so many socioeconomic
00:55:48.040 factors that are involved in that.
00:55:50.880 And I don't really know.
00:55:53.640 I'm, I would like, I would have to see the
00:55:56.140 whole entire study and how they're studying
00:55:58.420 the, the, these factors, because my brother
00:56:01.800 didn't go to college.
00:56:03.140 My brother went out and became a deep sea
00:56:05.500 fisherman.
00:56:05.880 And then he taught himself construction just
00:56:08.080 by working with guys who work construction.
00:56:10.040 He bought a house, he invested in silver.
00:56:13.460 He is now a fireman, you know, he never, and
00:56:16.800 he has a great life.
00:56:19.160 He owns a house and he's, he's educated
00:56:22.800 himself.
00:56:23.260 And my, um, uh, my other sister didn't go
00:56:28.860 to college.
00:56:29.560 She went to college, but she started a
00:56:31.320 whole organizing people's lives business.
00:56:33.460 And you don't need to, you know, she said,
00:56:35.940 I didn't need to go to college to help
00:56:38.580 people basically Marie Kondo their lives.
00:56:41.280 So I think that there are a lot of paths and
00:56:45.620 you really, and the other thing I was saying
00:56:49.040 is that not going to college taught me
00:56:51.520 resilience.
00:56:52.180 And it taught me that I have an ability to
00:56:56.280 find work or create work or go, you know,
00:57:02.160 I was a waitress for years and this is the
00:57:04.980 other thing.
00:57:05.340 I think people have this idea of work that's
00:57:07.980 beneath them and you just have to be able to
00:57:10.920 take a job and you do what you have to do.
00:57:14.740 Yeah.
00:57:15.040 Yeah.
00:57:15.700 And do it and have work ethic and show up.
00:57:18.340 And I had a lot of horrible, horrible jobs.
00:57:21.960 And I've had some good ones, but I mean, you,
00:57:25.240 when you're first starting, you have to be
00:57:27.060 willing to do the worst.
00:57:28.920 If they tell you clean the toilets, clean the
00:57:31.060 toilets, man, and just be the best at cleaning
00:57:33.400 the toilets and you will advance.
00:57:36.180 You will.
00:57:37.120 And I would, and you'll learn from that job
00:57:38.900 more than any other job.
00:57:40.340 And you'll learn things that you, you never
00:57:43.980 would have expected to learn and you'll meet
00:57:45.760 people and you know how I love that expression.
00:57:49.200 How you do anything is how you do everything.
00:57:51.520 Yes.
00:57:51.680 So you are recognized for your work ethic, no
00:57:55.560 matter what you're doing.
00:57:57.000 When I was in Japan, this was something that
00:57:59.540 really struck me was their work ethic and just
00:58:03.440 their presence and attention to detail.
00:58:05.940 Even the bartenders, just how much, how much
00:58:09.940 pride they had in whatever job they had.
00:58:13.680 And that was something that I took even when I was
00:58:17.060 waitressing, I, it would, it would have been very
00:58:19.420 easy for me to be, um, you know, angry.
00:58:22.600 And instead I just kind of approached it.
00:58:24.280 Like I'm literally being of service.
00:58:26.040 I get to just go up and this is my job and I'm
00:58:29.700 being of service.
00:58:31.040 And Bridget, I just think people have that.
00:58:33.400 They have to just fuck up.
00:58:35.600 British, uh, British, uh, Bridget,
00:58:38.540 Phetasy, uh, dot com, British, uh, uh,
00:58:42.540 Phetasy, uh, dot com.
00:58:44.620 You can follow her.
00:58:46.000 Thank you for being on the program.
00:58:47.500 Love to talk again.
00:58:48.540 The Blaze Radio Network.
00:58:53.260 On demand.
