00:00:20.140 gone to jail we all think he's guilty but thinking and being able to prove it is something different

00:00:26.500 in this case the facts are really hard to understand how they came up with a guilty verdict

00:01:41.640 you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program

00:01:52.060 15 years ago i was on this broadcast and i told you the time is going to come where you won't

00:02:02.520 recognize your country where everything is upside down everything you counted on everything you thought

00:02:09.200 was solid would be liquid and liquid would be solid well we're here 10 years ago i was called a racist

00:02:16.020 for pointing out that many in our government and those especially in the democratic party

00:02:20.960 were marxists and socialists claiming to be progressives and i said that there would come 0.97

00:02:27.400 a time when they would take their masks off

00:02:29.680 they would they would actually come out and this was in 2009 and people said this is crazy

00:02:36.820 they would come out because they wanted to tell you capitalism doesn't work and they would say yes

00:02:43.180 i'm socialist because the free market doesn't work i warned that conservative voices would be in peril

00:02:49.560 as the old line media empires would begin to burn themselves down i warned you that the european

00:02:56.200 totalitarian right would rise again and trouble was on the horizon for europe it would destabilize

00:03:02.760 and eventually the left and right would join forces they would begin marching in the streets

00:03:07.480 that russia would run a propaganda campaign to split us apart that we would begin to hear the same 0.88

00:03:14.960 progressive socialist talk of death for undesirables and celebration for the death of babies

00:03:21.060 the same kind of stuff the world endured and had to conquer in the 20s and 30s because they just

00:03:26.980 wouldn't pay attention i told you 15 years ago that more and more conspiracy theories would

00:03:35.000 circulate and believed by a majority of people more and more people would buy into them because all of

00:03:41.120 our institutions would lose credibility

00:03:43.240 five years ago deep fakes would be introduced and would finish the concept of truth i warned you

00:03:51.680 about these things now we have to prove to the world that the insanity can stop so how do we do it

00:03:59.560 well it's easy if we return to the self-evident truths if we just remember who we are where we came

00:04:10.020 from remember and admit that life in america doesn't suck as much as everybody seems to think it does

00:04:16.420 we have to decide we're not going to commit suicide as a society as a nation as culture

00:04:23.540 and there are decisions that we have to make right now destroying life abortion creating life ai

00:04:34.300 and the fastest to affect the entire world the choice between the free market and socialism

00:04:44.300 we are there and a lot of people in the media are pretending to believe that democratic socialism is

00:04:56.880 just a new coat of paint on the same old fdr democratic policies but it's not true as i will point out in our

00:05:05.000 special on uh wednesday tomorrow at 9 p.m eastern time

00:05:10.160 the wednesday night special is on bernie sanders and the radicals the revolutionaries

00:05:18.400 the islamists the anti-semites the marxists the communists that surround him 0.97

00:05:27.440 we've told you just yesterday what was in salon magazine about their plan their actual plan they're

00:05:37.280 they're printing it now online and mainstream if you can call it that mainstream publications

00:05:45.840 telling people yeah we're going to destroy capitalism that's what we have to do

00:05:51.760 well the only way to beat this is with information knowledge is power

00:05:58.600 knowledge is power nobody can fool you if you have knowledge

00:06:03.200 a couple of things on socialism uh i have a new book that is coming out

00:06:08.440 is it next month stew in april i think it's the first week of april

00:06:12.680 and i want you to order it online right now at amazon.com

00:06:16.920 order it is called arguing with socialists it's over 400 pages we made it into something that's

00:06:24.660 really easy to read it's in the format of arguing with idiots it comes out april 7th you can order it 0.59

00:06:31.800 right now it has about a hundred i'm sorry about 80 pages i think of footnotes so everything that we 0.85

00:06:39.840 say in it is footnoted so you know if you're doing a paper if you're trying to convince somebody

00:06:45.500 if you're trying to show don't show them my work oh that's glenn beck of course he says that show

00:06:50.160 it from the new york times everything is footnoted because we have to dismiss a couple of things first

00:06:56.740 that capitalism doesn't work and the second thing

00:07:01.420 socialism doesn't work

00:07:05.660 now let me be the first to say that socialism does work it works perfectly every single time

00:07:15.200 it's it is designed to do one thing and that is make everybody equal

00:07:23.660 and if you look at it as just equally miserable

00:07:30.020 it works

00:07:32.420 socialists saying capitalism doesn't work look at all the fat rich people look at all the inequality

00:07:37.600 doesn't work look at all the poor starving people all those dead bodies in front of the hospitals in 0.53

00:07:43.600 in america first of all there are no dead bodies people are not starving to death in america

00:07:49.060 but capitalism is doing exactly what it's supposed to do and that is create inequality

00:08:00.180 the equality of outcomes is what socialists want the goal of socialism is equality and the two systems

00:08:11.560 achieve the opposite results the goal of capitalism is in a way inequality

00:08:17.360 that is the natural result of the free market capitalism is inequality

00:08:24.800 of outcomes it encourages it acknowledges that people are different people have different work

00:08:35.340 habits there are some people that you can't stop me from working i work all the time it's what

00:08:41.260 i do i'm driven by it i actually love my job there are other people who don't they love their

00:08:47.920 they love their knitting they love their art they love their family and only want to be with them

00:08:55.260 they want to work in the home that's great but the guy who's working at running a corporation

00:09:01.240 because he is affecting millions of lives he's going to make more money than the person who is still

00:09:09.520 doing the noble work of just working with the family at home

00:09:14.180 they they they have an equal chance of success just not monetary success

00:09:22.220 but we only seem to look at the outcome of money

00:09:29.100 you can't have merit without inequality and if you want to get rid of inequality you must get rid

00:09:38.280 of merit it's why they started giving trophies to everybody in school there is no merit we're all

00:09:44.920 equal we're not all equal we are born equal we have equal rights

00:09:50.600 but we don't have equal outcomes if you want to be a singer and you want to go on television

00:09:58.160 and embarrass yourself and you suck hey you can do it you can do it but simon isn't going to tell you 0.83

00:10:06.140 oh man you're just as good as the last person 0.99

00:10:08.640 it's why we study in school it's why we work hard for an a

00:10:14.240 because with that good grade while others may have failed it gave you the promise of

00:10:22.540 bettering your life and your prospects

00:10:25.060 many of us get up to strive to create or to invent not just to better our world

00:10:32.940 but also better ourselves and our station and those two are connected

00:10:37.180 socialism it doesn't matter how hard you work

00:10:41.680 it matters who you are in the end

00:10:44.140 but everyone and everything is equally miserable unless you're at the very very top

00:10:51.240 capitalism has lifted entire continents out of equal misery and poverty

00:11:01.640 capitalism has made the world more unequal but they've lifted billions of people out of poverty

00:11:10.560 poverty yes there still remain shrinking pockets of misery but because of the free market the rate

00:11:18.400 of children dying before the age of five has dropped by over half since 1990 look at the difference

00:11:24.280 between the coronavirus here and what's coming here and how we're going to deal with it and how it was

00:11:30.780 dealt with and what came to china yeah well they're a free market no they're not no they're not

00:11:37.000 they're a communist country

00:11:38.740 death before the age of five has dropped by over half since 1990 yet 70 percent of the people believe

00:11:48.340 health care and poverty has gotten worse and bernie sanders is leading that charge

00:11:52.900 it hasn't but cable news will obsess about oh here's the latest scandal with donald trump

00:11:59.800 look at this plane crash

00:12:05.080 but just that one life-saving improvement is the equivalent of averting 27 major client plane

00:12:14.460 crashes full of children every single day every single day look at the gun problems we have 1.00

00:12:23.240 but the lives saved due to just a few of the improvements made in medicine just over the

00:12:30.360 last few years because of the free market system is the equivalent of erasing every gun-related

00:12:37.160 murder for 630 years and yet we don't hear about it all we hear about is the inequality that is

00:12:44.200 caused by capitalism fewer people are suffering and dying than ever before and there's still a lot to save

00:12:51.460 while socialism is making everyone except the elites equally starving and desperate in venezuela

00:12:59.040 in cuba i posted something last night look on my instagram feed i posted a picture

00:13:06.600 of a ob-gyn office the leading office in havana so this is the leading clinic for ob-gyn

00:13:16.260 in havana that's as bad that's as good as you get

00:13:20.180 i showed you the uh rooftop where they actually hang all of the rubber latex gloves out to dry

00:13:30.780 because after inserting them into one patient they wash them and then they hang them on a clothesline

00:13:38.180 to dry because they don't have the money or the system to be able to afford the latex gloves

00:13:45.880 that we just throw away

00:13:47.980 they'll look for the picture and spend and send it to your friends

00:13:52.760 i'm tired of the casting of shame on capitalism and it is time that we start to understand

00:14:04.180 what's being done to us and what our choice really is more in one minute

00:14:09.940 look there is no one no one that is coming over our border in the middle of the night there is no

00:14:22.320 one on the other side of the world that is dreaming of america that they can't wait to get here because

00:14:27.860 they're trying to escape the rich they're trying to escape the system that keeps them down

00:14:35.420 they're trying to escape possibly the rich who has taken over the government

00:14:42.780 the drug cartels we have a failed mark narco state on our border now in the south

00:14:49.400 they are here escaping not the rich but the system that dooms them and their children to poverty

00:14:56.240 they're coming here because they recognize that inequality is a fact of nature but through

00:15:02.700 merit and equal justice you can change your status and create a better future for your children

00:15:09.140 we should seek equality because it's more fair and just no it's not 0.69

00:15:15.580 socialism is about equality but it's not about fairness

00:15:21.980 capitalism isn't about equality of outcomes but fairness and justice is its objective

00:15:30.780 when it comes to economics equality and fairness are not synonyms

00:15:36.580 the stated goal of socialism is to achieve equality for all the true goal of capitalism

00:15:43.440 is to achieve liberty and justice for all and that's why the leftists hate all of this stuff

00:15:51.300 liberty and justice for all it is the american way

00:15:57.760 equality is not our natural state

00:16:04.860 we're all unique we're endowed by our creator with our own set of superpowers skills and talents

00:16:12.100 and yes problems we have our own weaknesses and challenges and thank god for that otherwise

00:16:18.260 everything would be the same but we are blessed to be born here this is a great country

00:16:24.720 we've lifted ourselves out of misery first and now we can voluntarily help the rest of the world

00:16:36.680 we don't need a government to take a dollar from us and give 40 cents to the poor

00:16:41.500 why not allow americans to take their own daughter a dollar and cut out the middleman cut out the 1.00

00:16:48.160 waste give the whole dollar to poor we've done it before and in fact nobody has ever done it like we have

00:16:56.160 i want you to hear carefully because maybe this is the first time you've heard it but there is

00:17:03.160 nothing wrong with your desire to achieve to work hard to compete to win there's nothing wrong with

00:17:11.620 your expectation to be rewarded for your work and enjoy those rewards the way you see fit which of

00:17:19.500 course includes taking care of the less fortunate should you choose but you're the only one that can write

00:17:26.560 your story your destiny is your own journey to make i have nothing to do with it and your failure i have

00:17:36.900 nothing to do with either we all stand on our own two feet

00:17:42.060 they're trying to work on democratic democratic changes well slavery by majority vote is still

00:17:53.960 slavery you are the only one that can take away your right for poor choices but even then you have

00:18:03.140 the right of redemption to begin again to pull yourself up out of the mud into the light

00:18:06.920 capitalism has its flaws it's lost its mooring the free market and justice should always be blindfolded

00:18:15.040 but they're not they're not being black white rich poor should never condemn you nor save you

00:18:22.920 but the world will change in the next 12 months one way or the other

00:18:32.540 will either all be equally enslaved equally poor and eventually equally dead or we'll humble ourselves

00:18:44.540 and we'll stand up for the bill of rights which grants us liberty we will stand up for the people

00:18:52.360 we despise the things that they say we'll stand shoulder to shoulder with them because they have a right

00:18:58.860 to do it we'll stand for the poor but we'll also stand for the rich those who've always been here those

00:19:05.900 who came on the mayflower and those who come here legally today because they're our hope they're our success

00:19:11.860 and it it will come as we stand for blind and equal justice and stand for the glorious natural inequality of all mankind

00:19:23.900 hey it's glenn and you're listening to the glenn beck program if you like what you're hearing on this show

00:19:51.680 examiner wrote numerous exclusives for usa today u.s news world report uh she is also a reporter now

00:19:58.760 investigative reporter at fox news and fox news contributor she runs her own website sarah carter.com

00:20:06.060 sarah i don't see on your bio that you were with us at the blaze for a long time i was with you at the

00:20:12.200 blaze it should be right there in my bio it's it's not darn it i loved working at the blaze i know i

00:20:18.500 will make sure that no no no i'm just giving you a hard time updated bio i'm giving i loved i loved

00:20:24.120 being at the blaze and i gotta tell you we did such incredible work at the really did during that

00:20:29.140 it was during that time that i actually uh met philip hayney uh got to know him quite well and

00:20:37.260 what a wonderful human being he was and hearing about his death was so tragic um it it really shook

00:20:45.800 me to the core because i had actually spoken to phil i think maybe three months ago he had called me we

00:20:51.920 were talking and you know i was so happy to hear from him um you know he had gone through a pretty rough

00:20:58.500 patch after losing his wife last year uh and but he was doing great and he was getting you know he was

00:21:05.640 surrounded by family and friends and everybody who loved him so hearing about his death was really

00:21:10.600 quite shocking to me now he um i understand was getting married next month he was also in the

00:21:17.200 middle of writing a new book did you get any indication at all that i mean you and i he advised

00:21:24.940 us and was a deep throat if you will on many stories uh and that guy put himself on the line

00:21:32.940 every day especially during the obama administration that guy was an amazing whistleblower

00:21:38.060 um and he was driven by a higher purpose did you get any indication at all he might have committed

00:21:46.000 suicide or was thinking that way or was so depressed no actually no there was no indication i mean

00:21:53.440 particularly when i remember thinking back to my conversation with him that there was any issue

00:21:58.640 whatsoever um that he was despondent or depressed i had spoken to a very close friend of his somebody

00:22:06.640 who had actually and i don't want to mention the name just in case it's private but just for the idea

00:22:11.640 i can talk about it uh right after um uh the news had broke a very close friend of his uh called me

00:22:19.660 and said look i had just spoken to phil on wednesday we were talking he was in such good spirit

00:22:26.400 uh not only did we get on the phone we were chatting back and forth um in text messages he was

00:22:33.120 very excited about the future um he was uh excited to be married um he was really looking forward to the

00:22:41.660 marriage and to his wedding uh so he was very distressed um he did contact this friend of phil

00:22:49.060 haney's did contact the police uh there in northern california who were investigating

00:22:54.220 uh what had happened to him and and spoke with them and said look i've been on the phone with him

00:22:59.020 on wednesday i don't know what could have happened um he was very happy uh he had no indication

00:23:05.340 whatsoever that he was going through any kind of depression now that doesn't mean that he didn't do

00:23:12.080 it right i mean we're the police are still investigating this um i know that information came out and uh they

00:23:18.500 they've said that this appears to be a suicide uh you know a lot of people that i spoke to i mean

00:23:24.500 it's very difficult to believe it was if it was a shotgun i don't know if we have all the details yet

00:23:28.980 uh putting you know putting shooting yourself in the chest is a very unusual way on the side of the

00:23:35.220 road pulling your car off on the side of the road that i mean right and usually it's not the chest i

00:23:41.300 mean with a shotgun i'm guessing with a shotgun it's heavier if it was a shotgun um but it's a very

00:23:47.340 uh a difficult situation let's just say it's not something that's commonly done i you know but i but

00:23:53.100 we don't know we don't know all the details all we do know is that philip haimey was an incredible

00:23:57.960 patriot and human being who really put everything on the line to get the truth out to the american public

00:24:05.220 about what was happening in the obama administration um and his long and illustrious career uh you know

00:24:12.980 uh from i mean this is a man who studied arabic who understood you know the culture who uh worked

00:24:20.400 at the dhs and was highly recognized given all kinds of awards for his work helped found the department

00:24:27.400 of homeland security um and then everything that happened to him during the obama administration

00:24:33.640 that was so distressing um and uh the the issues that he dealt with when it came to and i think

00:24:40.880 you'll go into that glenn with me in this call but as far as exposing what was happening where he was

00:24:47.040 asked to erase databases loads of information in 2009 um and uh and all the information that uh that

00:24:57.020 that he was asked to remove from the databases that would have helped the dhs connect the dots

00:25:02.560 uh particularly when it came to islamic extremists in the united states and he blamed the obama

00:25:08.300 administration for that he blamed them for for not uh for trying to change the narrative uh for not

00:25:14.960 telling the american people the truth and he came out uh in full force i do want to get into some of the

00:25:20.920 stuff that you can talk about you know um he was involved in whistleblowing uh with me on several

00:25:27.760 different things but i um he never um uh we we never discussed it on the air so i don't want to

00:25:35.900 discuss it uh just for the estate or whatever i just don't want to cause any problems um and uh so can

00:25:42.860 you talk about any of the things that he he did do and the impact that he he made well one of the things

00:25:52.440 that he did talk openly about um much later in 2016 um he did write an op-ed uh for the hill

00:26:00.620 uh where he talked about his career and talked a little bit um about not into the detail that i'm

00:26:08.040 sure he went into with both you and i and others that he spoke to on uh capitol hill those being

00:26:14.880 senior congressional members but he did talk in that op-ed on the hill about what happened to him

00:26:21.340 and he talked about uh you know the fact that uh they asked him to delete and modify several hundred

00:26:29.700 records in what the dhs is known as the um treasury enforcement enforcement communication systems

00:26:36.300 database it's called text and that's how everyone knows it the acronym text so you know he was asked to

00:26:43.960 go in there he was asked to alter documents he was asked to delete documents and mainly it was

00:26:50.080 he believed to change this narrative and to take away this stigma um when everybody was struggling

00:26:57.140 with what is extremism what does islamist mean what what are these uh you know particularly

00:27:04.360 back in 2008 2009 2010 and even after the september 11th attacks what what are these extremist groups

00:27:12.900 about who are they why are they so devout and he really felt that the obama administration

00:27:18.540 was like look we don't want and this appears to be anti-muslim uh we don't want any of this type of

00:27:25.640 narrative and what had happened was um i don't know if everybody remembers but i'll to to remind

00:27:31.820 everyone um before there was a christmas day attack there was the the remember with the bomber uh on the

00:27:39.160 airline they called him the underwear bomber and uh it didn't go off basically uh the the bomb did not

00:27:47.060 detonate the passengers on this plane were able to stop it uh obama became very upset in the

00:27:53.580 administration and said well why weren't we able to connect these dots how come we weren't able to

00:27:58.240 get this you know to see this in advance and phil haney was like well because you guys deleted

00:28:04.240 everything in the database that would have allowed people to connect the dots this is not the fault of

00:28:09.600 anybody at the dhs or the intelligence community you've literally disabled us from being able to

00:28:15.940 do this and phil wasn't the only one i mean phil came out publicly but there were a lot of people

00:28:22.360 even after you know september 11 2001 whistleblowers uh within united states citizenship and immigration

00:28:29.740 services people within the department of homeland security who were up in arms and i i think that's why

00:28:36.800 when phil died it was such a shock to everyone because the people that knew him well knew that he

00:28:43.900 was up against a behemoth right of uh because he was a whistleblower of people that did not want him

00:28:51.320 speaking uh people that did not want him pointing out the failures that happened within the american

00:28:57.180 system within our government within these agencies that we entrust and this has been a problem over and

00:29:04.640 over again we've seen it from phil you know what phil's exposed people that were whistleblowers within

00:29:10.300 united states citizenship and immigration services who said look we're just letting people into the

00:29:15.560 country we're not vetting them uh particularly after 2001 when we thought everything was going to get

00:29:22.200 better it didn't it went downhill in some cases in some of these agencies and we see that these

00:29:28.340 bureaucracies were badly managed or either forced to step aside and allow you know this type of i would

00:29:38.020 i would call it malfeasance to exist within these agencies you know because basically if you're asking

00:29:43.180 people who are the best of the best which phil was phil haney was no matter what anyone says phil

00:29:49.200 haney was awarded some of the top awards by the united states government for his work inside the dhs

00:29:55.300 for what he was able to do you know and and for what he was able to point out prior to them having

00:30:00.960 him and others erase these databases um which is what he claimed uh so it is a shock to the system it's

00:30:09.280 like what happens to whistleblowers lives you know and you think about so many people that have come

00:30:15.060 forward real whistleblowers i'm not talking you know people that want to pretend they're whistleblowers

00:30:19.760 but people with firsthand knowledge right firsthand knowledge they were asked to do something that

00:30:25.600 they believed was wrong and then they step up and they speak out despite everything that could happen

00:30:31.600 to them despite the backlash i will tell you that i i was with uh philip a few days before he came out

00:30:41.320 and announced some of the stuff he did and he was truly terrified he was he had been under uh

00:30:49.420 you know uh a microscope for so long and they had been looking for him to destroy him for so long

00:30:57.220 and he had no protection whatsoever uh and he spent a lot of his time very worried looking over his

00:31:05.200 shoulder sarah the last question i know that um the last time i spoke to him he was looking into

00:31:12.160 keith ellison and ilan omar etc etc then i lost track of him here in the last 18 months

00:31:19.100 do you know what he was working on by any chance yes he was he was continuing to work on keith

00:31:27.100 ellison and ilan omar and he was going to become a very active part of traveling throughout the country

00:31:34.020 and speaking to the american people about you know not only his work at dhs but really trying to

00:31:42.500 uh expose and shed light on what's happening in the united states and particularly the shift in

00:31:48.540 politics what's happened with the democratic party you know it's moved towards the left

00:31:53.760 this inability to speak the truth i think that was really important for phil phil was somebody who

00:31:59.920 respected everyone whether you were muslim or whether you were christian or whether you he

00:32:04.040 respected everyone the one thing that he was adamant about was speaking out against extremism and he

00:32:10.620 said you know he always spoke out against extremists and that's what he was focused on and he didn't

00:32:17.620 want people neither ilhan omar neither keith ellison or others you know and what he saw in the obama

00:32:24.000 administration trying to cover that up you know either for political correctness or because they

00:32:31.140 didn't want to expose what was actually happening within the administration he wanted to ensure and i hope

00:32:37.480 we can keep that memory alive and what he wanted alive glenn because he wanted to ensure that the

00:32:43.880 american people knew the truth they weren't afraid to face the truth and that the government would react

00:32:50.800 to the truth appropriately so we could save lives and so that we wouldn't allow another september 11th to

00:32:57.200 happen in this country or anywhere else in the world sarah carter that i think i think phil um and i do as

00:34:51.000 you i'm doing great well what what an introduction yeah i'm a geek yeah well i appreciate it but it's

00:34:56.980 true you know that i mean geeks of the world unite um you are uh you're a guy who found an old

00:35:06.260 article that nobody has exposed yet we just put it up on glennbeck.com uh your article called

00:35:13.280 revealing bernie's dark side one 1980s quote at a time you found who even knew there was such a

00:35:19.580 publication called the what was it the uh the militant that's what it is the militant what an

00:35:27.120 article do you want to take us through yeah yeah absolutely so uh what i've been spending my saturday

00:35:33.900 nights doing is looking through old communist newspapers in particular this communist newspaper

00:35:40.420 called the militants which is a publication of the socialist workers party and throughout the 1980s

00:35:47.000 these these publications have tons of interviews with bernie sanders who at the time was known as the

00:35:53.600 america's socialist mayor he was uh mayor of burlington vermont and uh they loved him as the socialist

00:36:00.920 workers party because bernie sanders it turns out was a big communist not just a socialist a communist

00:36:07.420 he supported communist presidential candidates in 1980 and 1984 uh he actively campaigned for them

00:36:14.620 he agreed to be a presidential elector for the socialist workers party and so they have all these

00:36:20.180 interviews with bernie sanders they quote him a lot and one of the interviews that i found that was

00:36:24.400 particularly disturbing was this interview right after he became mayor of burlington and they talk

00:36:30.240 about all sorts of different topics but the thing that really struck me the thing that i really i

00:36:34.320 haven't heard anywhere else this this reported i think this has been lost for decades is he's talking

00:36:39.680 about police support and to fully understand this this quote you have to you have to grasp that within

00:36:45.800 the communist movement and the socialist movement both today and in the 1980s they really don't like

00:36:51.020 police they hate police they talk about it all the time and so one of the criticisms of bernie

00:36:56.320 sanders believe it or not was that he got police support local police support so they're asking him

00:37:01.340 about this and they're saying hey it's controversial to some socialists that you've got this police

00:37:05.860 support what do you have to say and he provides this answer about cops and how they've there's some

00:37:11.480 good cops here and let me let me let me let me read it uh verbatim uh sanders added that he knows that

00:37:20.660 some police forces are dominated by fascists and nazis but on the other hand we have a police force

00:37:28.560 and we may may have our own bad eggs too but i don't consider these guys who are making ten thousand

00:37:34.300 dollars a year as my enemies as much as many offend certain people in the left-wing movement

00:37:40.060 we've got good cops here they're good trade unionists all regular trade union issues people who have a

00:37:48.980 concern for young people probably the major crime problem we have in the city is with young people 1.00

00:37:55.460 these police see the futility of arresting poor kids all of the time they want to get involved in

00:38:01.520 some of the projects that we're beginning to do um uh to uh dent this surface on so he's saying here

00:38:09.780 yeah i know cops are bad we all know cops are bad but our cops are trade unionists and so because

00:38:16.680 they're good members of the union they're actually good most police forces i mean i love this he knows that

00:38:24.400 okay he says some police forces are dominated by fascists and nazis i'd like to know which ones

00:38:33.280 so what i i imagine he thinks it's actually more than just a few police forces it's it's important

00:38:42.560 to note that actually the writer is the one who said some police forces the direct quote from bernie

00:38:48.280 begins with are dominated by fascists and nazis and then there's a dot dot dot meaning we don't

00:38:54.400 know what he said immediately after that right right left out of the story so who knows what sort

00:39:00.320 of a rant he went on to add things to this to this mix but it just goes to show you bernie sanders is

00:39:05.980 not just this you know i love sweden and norway and denmark and i just want the world to be like that

00:39:11.280 no he is a radical marxist i believe trotskyite socialist uh who who wants to radically transform

00:39:19.520 the united states so tomorrow justin i'm doing a special on the people surrounding him and the

00:39:29.760 people that are in his campaign are terrifying truly terrifying because they are revolutionaries

00:39:35.760 he is a revolutionary are you shocked at uh the willingness for of apparently the average democrat

00:39:47.440 to just get on board the sanders train and ride that right into the the communist hell station 0.83

00:39:55.220 i i i am not for this reason i don't think i think this is so radical but he is so radical

00:40:05.020 so extreme that when you bring these things up when you talk about his support for for fidel castro

00:40:11.460 and cuba and the sandinistas and nicaragua and the soviet union all these things it sounds so crazy i

00:40:18.840 think most people don't believe it that's that's really where i think this is that i don't think

00:40:23.060 people believe it because it sounds almost like it's a vast right-wing conspiracy right it doesn't

00:40:29.040 i mean can't real wait a minute could you imagine anyone left or right anyone getting on the stage

00:40:35.160 and going of course i condemn the holocaust of course i condemn the brown shirts of course we all know 0.93

00:40:43.420 about hitler and i condemn all of that but let's talk about the volkswagen let's talk about his health

00:40:50.360 care let's talk about his his youth program let's talk about the super highway the autobahn that he he

00:40:57.840 did a lot of good things of course we condemn the holocaust can you imagine anyone of any party 1.00

00:41:04.500 getting away with that how the hell is he getting away with this when it comes to stalin china cuba

00:41:12.880 venezuela well i mean the the answer is really obvious it's that the mainstream press lets him get

00:41:20.400 away with it because they are in in many cases at the very least sympathetic to his views and they and

00:41:27.520 they are secretly rooting for him to win i mean that's that's the only explanation because if they

00:41:33.360 had even an ounce of honesty in them they would point out just how incredibly radical this man truly is

00:41:42.240 they would point out that he is actively sympathizing and has been actively sympathizing

00:41:48.120 for decades with radical communist and socialist groups again communist groups marxist groups for

00:41:56.600 decades and some people might look at it say well this is 1980 that was 40 years ago people say really 0.98

00:42:02.240 horrible you know sometimes stupid foolish things when they're young except bernie wasn't young 0.93

00:42:07.480 he was in his 40s yeah this is a middle-aged man and and he's not changing you know it's one thing if 0.99

00:42:15.800 he would be like you know i said those things about communism but then the wall came down and i saw what it

00:42:21.560 really was no he's saying today the same things he said back then there's nothing changed that's that's

00:42:30.200 exactly right and he visited those places he went to the soviet union he went to nicaragua he actually

00:42:37.960 saw these things with his own eyes he met with with the president of nicaragua daniel ortega i mean he

00:42:43.720 knew these people he saw what was going on he is just as radical as it seems he is it's just so hard to

00:42:52.160 believe that someone that radical that marxist that crazy could get this far and yet that's exactly where 0.99

00:42:58.900 we're at this man could very likely be in fact i think he will be one of two people who will be

00:43:05.100 chosen in november to be president of the united states that is horrifying so justin let's not do

00:43:11.920 because i find myself listening to people saying the same thing about bernie sanders that everybody 0.97

00:43:17.780 said about donald trump oh he's not gonna win these this is a you know he's crazy he's radical 0.95

00:43:23.660 or how is it that these people they must be bad they the voters must be bad they must be communists 0.61

00:43:30.700 they must they know this why won't they do anything about him he's a danger well that wasn't true about

00:43:36.560 our side so why do we why do we accept that about the left or i shouldn't say the left the democrats

00:43:42.340 what is happening in the lives of the democrats the average neighbor democrat not the crazy ones

00:43:50.320 but the average democrat what is happening in their life that is allowing them to say oh no you

00:43:57.080 know what i'll vote for bernie sanders i don't really care i want i want i want donald trump out

00:44:03.000 so badly that i'll vote for this guy and shut all reason off right i think that there's a couple of

00:44:11.400 really key important things that have happened number one is all of the main institutions are taken over

00:44:17.300 by leftists who have who have basically taught a whole generation really two generations of people

00:44:24.120 that these ideas really aren't that bad they don't teach them the history of what's happened in many 0.76

00:44:28.100 of these countries that have tried these ideas so a lot of people are just frankly ignorant about this

00:44:32.620 stuff that's a big part of it the other thing is there's been this very deliberate campaign

00:44:38.280 attempt by bernie sanders and other people alexandria ocasio-cortez lots of other socialists

00:44:42.980 to paint scandinavia as what they're looking for when in reality that's not what they're looking for

00:44:49.020 and those countries aren't socialist countries but they've done a very good job of convincing regular

00:44:54.300 people who don't pay attention to the issues very closely that these are the socialist countries that

00:44:59.180 they're trying to be like and nobody would look at sweden and say well that's a socialist hellhole

00:45:04.920 nobody does that so it's allowed them to point to finally have something that they can hold up and say

00:45:10.640 here's an example of something that works that's socialism that works and this is what we want and

00:45:15.620 it makes people feel comfortable with calling themselves a socialist and supporting a socialist

00:45:20.820 because they think that's what they're shooting for well in reality it's not what they're shooting

00:45:26.620 it is it's a remarkable to me and you will find it in this article now at glennbeck.com revealing

00:45:32.660 bernie's dark side one 1980s quote at a time he that's not what he's shooting for he may say that but

00:45:38.800 that's not what he's shooting for uh and if you look at his policies it's not sweden it's not

00:45:45.800 anything like what is happening in the scandinavian countries at all uh or even at the height of when

00:45:53.560 they were socialist in the 60s and 70s it's not what he is proposing i want to ask you one theory um

00:46:01.440 or listen to listen to a theory of mine about the difference between barack obama and bernie sanders

00:46:07.100 uh in one minute i get the answer again from justin haskins uh and justin again wrote that

00:46:13.540 great article you find it now share it with some friends uh at glennbeck.com so justin haskins is

00:46:21.360 with us justin let me ask you this a theory of mine on the difference between barack obama

00:46:25.820 we saw when barack obama came in we saw barack obama for what he was and what some of the people

00:46:32.000 that he put around him were they were marxist radicals but the the key to the failure for 0.96

00:46:39.880 marxism on barack obama was he surrounded himself with all of the clinton people and the clinton people

00:46:47.280 may have been about corruption or they may about they may have even been just about good you know

00:46:52.260 very very progressive policies but they weren't going to end capitalism and so barack obama came in

00:47:00.300 and he's promoting this change and he's you know this good soldier of jeremiah rights

00:47:06.120 and the left gets excited about it but when he gets in the clinton people kind of stop him from

00:47:12.900 doing anything too radical and so he loses all of his support i mean he still wins the second term but

00:47:19.700 he's not drawing big crowds and he's not this icon bernie sanders is not the guy to surround himself

00:47:26.580 with people from the clinton campaign or from the dnc he despises them he'll go in and he will use

00:47:36.200 every lever he has to fundamentally change in a four-year period you agree with that oh without

00:47:44.740 without question without question um i think i agree i agree with your your theory about barack obama i would

00:47:51.660 add that really the biggest obstacle standing in his way was the tea party movement yeah of 2010 it

00:47:58.240 completely crushed any hope that he had of of accomplishing further reforms uh and so and i

00:48:05.500 think that that that stunted a lot of what he was trying to achieve but you're absolutely right he was

00:48:09.860 a barack obama was as socialist as you could get while being in within the sort of framework

00:48:17.480 establishment democratic framework right he's totally bernie sanders is out and bernie sanders

00:48:23.720 will use every lever i mean he will use i think i think the uh net neutrality and the uh fairness

00:48:33.320 doctrine for broadcast rules i think those are picnics compared to what will happen to shut people like us

00:48:40.440 down and keep us quiet absolutely he's going to use every tool at his disposal to enact what he

00:48:48.820 believes are essential reforms to the system he wants to completely get rid of our current system

00:48:54.300 i think that one of the best tools he's going to use is modern monetary theory this idea that we can

00:48:59.680 just print an infinite amount of money to pay for whatever we want to pay for and then to control

00:49:04.000 society by controlling spending i believe he's going to do that and he may actually get a lot of

00:49:09.140 republicans on board with that because they don't seem to care about the debt anymore either

00:49:13.180 you're you're you're right um the executive look donald trump has done a lot of really really good

00:49:19.300 things but there's a there's a fatal flaw in the trump administration's tenure and that fatal flaw is

00:49:26.020 that most of it's been done through executive action much like barack obama's second term and that

00:49:30.960 stuff can all be wiped out anytime the next president wants and republicans in congress failed to actually

00:49:37.180 get things codified into law and so now all of these positive reforms can be wiped away with a

00:49:42.800 single pen stroke and that's exactly what bernie sanders will do and then he'll replace it with

00:49:46.260 socialist policies instead justin thank you very much make sure you get uh his article at glenbeck.com
