00:07:22.480Some of the people opposed to this bill are overstating their case, and some of the people supporting this bill are overstating their case.
00:07:54.400It says that if we get to January 1st and we're still operating on a CR because the Senate wouldn't take the House's 12 separate appropriations bills up, we do a real, honest-to-goodness, 1% cut of everything, military, Democrat programs, all of it gets cut 1%.
00:09:53.100I hear their complaints, and many of them are valid.
00:09:57.500But the question is, what are we going to get if we blow this up in the House?
00:10:04.000And I've been here long enough to tell you what I think comes next.
00:10:07.280This is where I disagree with my friends.
00:10:09.060Some of them think you blow it up in the House, and you march Kevin back over to the White House, and you put him back in the room with Biden, and he comes out with something that's miraculously better.
00:11:46.220Well, he got my provision in there, so I can't say he blew it.
00:11:52.300But I do agree that the 435 people in the House designating one person to go into a backroom and cut a deal with the president is a real crappy way to do business.
00:12:02.380But everybody agreed to do business that way.
00:17:06.380The world really didn't know about ESG.
00:17:12.040We started talking about it when it was just a conspiracy theory.
00:17:16.180And I think because of this audience and the audiences of Russell Brand that people now know what ESG is and they're standing up against it.
00:17:25.480The other thing that this audience and I did it out of stupidity.
00:17:29.020I just didn't know you don't touch this rail.
00:17:31.020I began talking about George Soros 20 years ago and and speaking out loudly about him and found him to be a very dangerous person because of that.
00:17:45.680A lot of money was spent through media matters and everything else to in particular target me and my voice.
00:17:52.960And he has he has rallied people to say that I'm an anti-Semite for it.
00:22:44.060However, I've always said I thought he was more like the emperor in Star Wars.
00:22:52.940Oh, you think your friends will save you.
00:22:56.700Anyway, you know, there are a couple of countries, I think one in Asia, I think Hungary, maybe another one, that has banned his, you know, Open Society Foundation and his NGOs from coming into the country.
00:23:14.860I mean, I think we should do that here.
00:23:19.780And I also think that there are some countries in Poland and in Austria and in Hungary, there have been some people who have used Soros' Jewish heritage against him in order to promote anti-Semitism.
00:23:39.880In the same way we would condemn if anybody used somebody's Muslim heritage or Christian heritage to condemn them.
00:23:47.680You condemn the person for what they did, not for what they are.
00:23:51.940And so, you know, I'm going to continue to condemn those Europeans who point out Soros' religion, who compare him to, for example, the Rothschild family.
00:25:40.100What he doesn't like is America, the country that saved him and saved so many of us and our parents and our grandparents.
00:25:48.900You know, my grandmother, who came from a little shtetl in Poland, was such an American patriot.
00:25:54.920She would take us on July 4th to the Statue of Liberty, make us pledge allegiance, and then sing in her broken accent the Star Spangled Banner, including the second verse, which nobody knew.
00:26:06.740But my grandmother, with a thick accent, knew the second verse because she just loved America, and she loved Israel.
00:26:25.040But to use his money in the way he does in such a destructive manner is appalling and deserves to be criticized.
00:26:33.320And I'm going to continue to criticize, and I got a lot of flack for doing it, but I'm going to continue to do it.
00:26:40.640So, all right, so let me ask you this.
00:26:42.220So the only solution to him, and I'm asking you sincerely, I don't have an answer, the only solution to his use of money, the way he uses it, for instance, in all of our cities, is just to expose him and talk about it?
00:26:59.480I mean, you know, there are ways of limiting expenditures, but they run into the Constitution, and generally I don't support, you know, money is free speech.
00:27:10.740And so let him do what he wants to do, but, you know, let's condemn him for the way he spends his money and the way he tries to influence America for the worse.
00:27:23.080So I wouldn't, you know, take away his money or take away his ability to influence, but I would hope that people wouldn't be influenced by his money to defend him.
00:27:32.840I think a lot of the people who jump to his defense and who criticize us are probably direct or indirect beneficiaries of his money.
00:27:40.540And that's why Media Matters and other organizations like that jump to his defense immediately because they want his money.
00:27:46.500Thank you so much, Alan, for everything that you do, and just another notch there on the popularity poll for Alan Dershowitz.
00:27:58.480Thank you so much, Alan. I appreciate it.
00:28:00.700You bet. Alan Dershowitz, Harvard Law School professor emeritus, host of The Dershow, which is a great podcast, and the author of Get Trump.
00:28:08.600Not that he was saying Get Trump. He was – anyway.
00:28:11.160Anyway, I don't think I've ever had – we've ever had a guest on that's been more negative on George Soros than you.
00:28:17.040I think we just set a new record. That was an impressive – and I guess you –
00:28:20.520Can you call Alan Dershowitz an anti-Semite? Is that what the next step in this little charade is?
00:28:35.300You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:28:38.040So, James Lindsay is with us, and he's hacking everybody off online because I don't – I'm not sure that people understand what he is trying to warn against.
00:28:57.680He is the author, by the way, of The Marxification of Education and New Discourses Founder and President.
00:29:05.320He says, political warfare is coming during Pride Month, and I fear you're right, and I also fear that you're right about the warning to Christians.
00:29:20.360So, James, where do you want to start?
00:29:24.220I think maybe we'll start kind of big picture.
00:29:27.820I think we're going to see what political warfare is, first of all, is when you use basically intelligence kind of tactics against a population to get them to act and behave in certain ways that you can then take advantage of for political purposes, to drive an agenda, to get the DOJ to crack down on something, whatever.
00:29:47.960I think we're going to see two attacks through Pride using LGBTQ, as they call it, issues as the wedge.
00:29:55.020One of those will be to get our corporations that skew as American brands – Ford, Target, Bud Light, Americana brands – to take this up full blast.
00:30:07.080So, the conservatives will turn around and boycott and target these corporations as we should and almost as we must, so we cut off ourselves at our own knees.
00:30:17.220And Marxists would like nothing better.
00:30:18.860But secondly, they will attack religious icons.
00:30:23.680We've seen this with the so-called Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence or whatever they call themselves in Los Angeles.
00:30:29.080Going after very religious, offensive behaviors.
00:30:34.260And the goal will be to – they know that conservatives, and particularly a lot of conservative Christians, are getting angry, that they're getting desperate.
00:30:41.960It's almost like they've woke up a dragon, and they're going to feed the dragon and get them to do something stupid that will then turn around and get used against them,
00:30:49.920whether it's investigate churches, shut down churches, come down on conservative Christianity just from a political perspective so that they're the domestic terrorist hotbeds of the country,
00:31:01.280and then come around in a few months and offer some new fake state-approved Christian churches that will fill in the space that gets left by bulldozing what exists now.
00:31:12.880So you really think it'll go – I mean, I don't know why I'm surprised at this, but, I mean, that is a huge statement to make, that they will shut down our churches?
00:31:26.000Well, you know, the federal government can only do so much with that, but they can start doing investigations.
00:31:32.280I wouldn't be surprised at all if there is some large Christian reaction that's not strategic, that's not thoughtful.
00:31:38.920I'm asking nobody, by the way, to sit on their hands and do nothing.
00:31:41.580This is a common misconception of what I'm saying.
00:31:44.540But if it's not strategic, if we're not thinking intelligently about how we approach this,
00:31:48.980there are already large dossiers written for the federal government saying that the cause of January 6th,
00:31:55.080which, of course, is their favorite thing to go to, was, in fact, not even MAGA or Trump.
00:32:00.320Believe it – how crazy is it that they say it's something other than Trump?
00:32:04.560It's Christian nationalism, which is a rising domestic terror threat.
00:32:08.160So if they can use some excuse to label churches as breeding grounds for domestic terrorism,
00:32:15.720you can bet the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice, and maybe the IRS are going to be cracking down and spying on churches.
00:32:22.280You can bet they're going to try to push something like a Second Patriot Act that allows them to spy on churches
00:32:27.300and do whatever else that they have to do in order to try to limit that alleged threat of domestic terrorism.
00:32:33.200This is well-linked already in the federal government.
00:32:36.400This isn't just some media narrative, although that's happening, too, to give it legs in the population.
00:32:41.460This is something that they'll get the public to demand, that they're going to say white supremacy tied to Christian nationalism,
00:32:47.900white Christian nationalism is the biggest threat.
00:32:50.320It's a very serious concern, and they will use the unbelievable provocations that they're going to put forth in the next month or two for pride
00:32:58.280to trigger Christians into giving them the reaction that they need so that they can justify these political moves
00:33:04.400against both Christians and conservatives, but also all Americans.
00:33:08.200So, in one survey conducted between 2007 and 2017, 52 percent, this is the claim, support some form of Christian nationalism.
00:33:20.680Later study, Brookings Institute, Public Religion Research Institute, says only 29 percent of Americans fall somewhere on the Christian nationalist spectrum.
00:33:30.940Over half Republicans reportedly show some degree of support, with 21 percent counting as adherents and 33 percent as sympathizers.
00:33:41.760What exactly is a Christian nationalist?
00:33:45.360You know, Glenn, I wish I could tell you because it's a very wide and I think deliberately wide spectrum of beliefs
00:33:51.780that ranges from things that are as innocuous as that we need to have kind of a broad cultural revival
00:33:57.640and bring Christian values back to the public square, meaning at the level of individuals coming back to God,
00:34:04.260coming back to the church, getting, you know, their Christian principles right and living them,
00:34:08.920all the way to the other side where we're talking about in, say, the book that's titled
00:34:12.920A Case for Christian Nationalism by Stephen Wolf.
00:34:16.180A Christian prince bestriding the land is the highest official, not just in the United States, but in the world.
00:34:22.300And so this Christian prince is, of course, a Protestant recreation of the pope.
00:34:26.620And this person is supposed to become the ultimate civil magistrate right out of kind of old philosophy.
00:34:33.620You know, we talk old philosophy sometimes, Glenn, right out of Hegel's philosophy of right,
00:34:37.760where we're going to have this new kind of brilliant magistrate leader who's going to, you know,
00:34:42.600have the correct ideals and principles and lead the country.
00:34:45.180So it's a huge spectrum of that, anything in between.
00:34:50.060And they're playing, in a sense, both sides against the middle by putting out a wide spectrum
00:34:55.540of different views so that if one's unpalatable or one's too soft, they can point to the others
00:35:00.400and bounce around between the definitions and get people, especially Christians, to dip into their
