The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guests： Sean Spicer & Ezra Levant ｜ 2⧸18⧸25

00:00:00.000 Got a great podcast for you. Sean Spicer is part of the podcast. He tells a great story

00:00:04.100 about something that happened in 2021. That is, the chickens are coming home to roost today.

00:00:13.120 Also, why the overaction and freak out over the government cuts?

00:00:16.840 What happened to the $4.7 trillion that the Treasury just isn't able to track?

00:00:22.220 I mean, it just could be a clerical error and we find the $4.7 trillion,

00:00:27.600 but should we have ever, ever lost $4.7 trillion?

00:00:32.500 And from Canada, Ezra Levant gives a great idea on what maybe Trump and we should be pushing for

00:00:40.100 with Canada. For far too long, the left is told expecting moms that the child inside them was

00:00:46.100 nothing more than a clump of cells. Nothing more than that. But Preborn is working to educate and

00:00:50.800 love these moms, to convince them that life is the way to go. And they even help them after the baby 0.71

00:00:57.160 is born financially. I mean, they are there for them for the next two years.

00:01:01.920 Preborn's networks of clinics saves 200 babies every day by offering free ultrasounds to expecting

00:01:08.260 moms, doubling that their baby's chance that mom will choose life. It happens every day at a 1.00

00:01:14.780 preborn clinic. You make the difference between life and death of so many babies. As abortion continues

00:01:20.820 to rise, Preborn is expanding their life-affirming care in the darkest corners of our nations to help

00:01:25.260 more hurting women and save more babies. If you have the means, would you consider a leadership

00:01:29.460 gift to save babies in a big way? Your tax-deductible donation of $15,000 will place a machine in a

00:01:35.240 needy women's center, saving countless lives for years to come. Donate. Just dial pound 250, 1.00

00:01:40.660 say the keyword baby. That's pound 250, keyword baby. Or you can donate securely online at

00:01:50.960 generations. Preborn. Sponsored by Preborn.

00:01:54.500 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. My gosh, everything is in chaos. Nobody's

00:02:12.900 getting food. The price of bacon. Have you noticed? I, uh, can you even afford gas now? My gosh,

00:02:24.140 the schools are in disarray. Our children aren't being educated. What do we do with the homeless

00:02:31.320 population that's about to be beaten to death because they're, they're people in America are 0.99

00:02:37.740 so transphobic, but there's no classes to learn. Don't hate trans people. What are we going to do?

00:02:45.800 And, and what, and what is Elon Musk doing? Oh man, he went into the, uh, he went into the treasury

00:02:53.860 and, uh, he started having his people work with the treasury people. And it was actually the treasury

00:03:01.020 people that found, um, well, $4.7 trillion in payments that don't have any, you know, don't have

00:03:10.880 any code or anything. So it's almost untraceable to see where that $4.7 trillion went. Don't worry

00:03:18.520 about it. What? What? It's these doge people that just keep hyping everything and saying that there's

00:03:26.000 problems. There's no problem there. $4.7 trillion that we just can't identify where it went. What do

00:03:32.320 you want a record now? My gosh. Keep calm and carry on. Yeah. You ever hear that? Just so what?

00:03:39.160 There's $4.7 trillion. It just keep calm, keep going. Everything's going to be fine.

00:03:47.300 So now people are paranoid in Washington. Listen to this story. Dad, uh, Stu, this is, this is sad.

00:03:55.180 This is very sad. Government employees are reporting. Can we have any sad music, Sarah? Government

00:04:01.500 employees are reportedly plagued with anxiety over the Department of Government Efficiencies,

00:04:07.080 DOGE, the access to various computer systems, fearing surveillance of their communications.

00:04:13.740 Some employees are paranoid that their conversations, their emails, their texts could be surveilled

00:04:18.180 with some purchasing Faraday bags to block electromagnetic signals or to inhibit potential

00:04:26.700 surveillance. One employee at the General Services Administration, responsible for

00:04:31.480 government procurement procurement, say they no longer carry a work out, a phone outside of

00:04:37.500 the office. I used to carry my work phone around with me everywhere after hours on the weekend in

00:04:42.260 case anything was, anything was needed. But now I won't take it out of my office. Now the GSA says it

00:04:51.060 doesn't have a plan to surveil its employees, but people are worried that they're being surveilled now.

00:04:58.060 Now I, I don't, I mean, I, I mean, I don't mean to be the bearer of bad news, but

00:05:05.520 the government's been listening to you and everybody else for a very long time. What you're just coming

00:05:12.500 around to this. I think the government might be listening. No, no way. Now add to that anything in

00:05:21.980 your emails or whatever could just be taken without a search warrant. Your GPS location could just be

00:05:30.240 given. Your banking records could be given to the FBI. Yeah, that's right. It could happen to you, but

00:05:37.940 only if you're on the right and were in Washington on January 6th. That was the only way that could happen.

00:05:45.900 So you were safe. You were totally safe. Or are you, this is a reason to make sure the government

00:05:55.800 is transparent. I don't think there's anybody that wants to be surveilled by the United States

00:06:01.060 government. That's kind of been one of our points lately. You know what I mean? We've been saying that

00:06:05.180 for a while, Hey, they could become really dangerous because they have all of our information.

00:06:12.640 And you were like, no, that's not going to happen. I mean, I mean, unless you're for Trump,

00:06:20.420 but that's crazy. Oh, okay. Okay. So yesterday, anti-Trump critics have called for another boycott

00:06:29.400 against the co-founder of Airbnb. He's decided to, to join Doge. I don't know what he's doing. Maybe

00:06:38.660 putting people up. I don't know. I don't know. $4.7 trillion missing. Maybe he can get a slice of

00:06:44.520 that. I don't know. But, uh, he came out and he said that he was, you know, he was going to go ahead

00:06:50.320 and, uh, and, uh, and volunteer time for Doge. Okay. Great. Oh my gosh. No, not great for the

00:06:59.780 people. I mean, the people who are the elites in Washington, you know, the ones that are having

00:07:04.560 to sacrifice right now, right now might, might lose their cushy government job. I mean, they've had a

00:07:10.340 job. They've, they've been promised a job for life. You know what that's like, right? Never having to

00:07:16.800 worry about your job. Never having to worry about even a review because really everyone around you

00:07:23.280 sucks. Oh man. And they might lose. Where's the sad music, Sarah? I need some more sad music for the

00:07:29.660 government employees that might lose their job. Oh gosh, darn it. Can you imagine not knowing if you

00:07:38.540 could keep your job a new buy? Try this out for size. You probably can't relate to this, but a new boss

00:07:44.600 comes into your place of work and you don't know if he's going to like you, not like you, change

00:07:50.900 direction. You could just lose your job. I know you can't relate to that, but for the very first time

00:07:58.260 in American history, these poor employees of the government who were promised a job for life and

00:08:07.260 pension better than any kind of pension you could ever get, they now question whether this new boss

00:08:15.640 of theirs might fire them. I don't know how they deal with it. I don't know how they deal with it.

00:08:24.420 Oh my gosh, the stress they must be under. Just horrible, huh? By the way, Department of Education

00:08:32.900 has canceled $600 million in woke teacher training grants. You've got to be kidding me.

00:08:41.280 So wait a minute. Are you telling me nobody's going to be teaching our teachers

00:08:45.880 that little Susie could have a dinky sewed on to her body so she could be a boy? Nobody's going to teach 0.99

00:08:56.620 that? What was sewed on again? A dinky. Okay. Put it right there. And nobody's going to teach that

00:09:02.640 to the teachers. So the teachers won't be able to teach that to the kids. Oh my gosh, this is chaos,

00:09:09.340 people. This is chaos. Kind of like, see, I know you can't, I know you can't relate to this kind of

00:09:18.040 chaos, but the teachers are now going to have to go into school and what they've known to be true

00:09:23.960 their whole life, you know, that gender is fluid. That a boy could be a girl. That, you know,

00:09:32.920 trans is cool. That drag queens, I mean, they grew up their whole life knowing that drag queens were

00:09:40.340 cool for kindergartners. Okay. They knew it their whole life. And then all of a sudden Trump gets in

00:09:45.740 and everything changes overnight. Now, all of a sudden you can't relate to this kind of chaos in

00:09:52.740 your life because this kind of chaos has never happened to you where you believe something

00:09:56.700 your entire life. You think everybody believes something for their entire life. And then a group

00:10:02.020 of people get into power and they're like, no, there's no such thing as kids being able to change their

00:10:11.880 gender. Imagine what these teachers are going through. The chaos in their life.

00:10:24.900 Man.

00:10:28.700 And what is Doge doing? What are they doing? Really? Honestly, what are they doing?

00:10:33.520 Let me give you this story. The Washington, D.C. non-profit.

00:10:37.820 A non-profit, the Amica Center for Immigration Rights, has been running advertisements on Facebook

00:10:48.960 soliciting donations to disrupt Trump's deportation machine. Stop Trump's deportation dystopia.

00:10:57.540 We'll see you in court, Mr. Trump.

00:11:01.420 Now,

00:11:03.540 you might not have ever heard of this NGO, but the federal government has heard about it.

00:11:12.720 In fact,

00:11:13.940 they received just last year

00:11:17.680 $9 million

00:11:18.700 as a subcontractor to provide

00:11:21.600 legal services through the Department of Justice

00:11:23.740 Legal Orientation Program.

00:11:25.480 So this is like a quasi-government agency.

00:11:28.840 Here's the good news, okay?

00:11:31.560 You're gonna love this.

00:11:33.740 You've never heard of this group before.

00:11:36.220 You might think,

00:11:37.600 hey, I don't know.

00:11:39.020 I mean, didn't they promise us at one point

00:11:40.800 we wouldn't take federal tax dollars

00:11:42.880 to pay for abortions? 1.00

00:11:45.280 No, they never promised that.

00:11:46.900 What are you talking about?

00:11:47.900 You've got a faulty memory.

00:11:50.340 I don't know.

00:11:51.220 I'm kind of against

00:11:52.720 illegal immigration.

00:11:54.120 Why are my tax dollars going

00:11:56.340 to fight against the law?

00:12:00.160 Are you a doge person?

00:12:04.760 Are you somebody who likes Elon Musk?

00:12:07.980 Are you somebody who doesn't understand

00:12:09.880 that the biggest threat to the planet,

00:12:12.500 an existential threat,

00:12:14.660 will be dead in

00:12:16.200 10 minutes?

00:12:18.400 We'll all be dead

00:12:19.860 if we don't take care

00:12:21.780 of global warming

00:12:22.640 in the next, well,

00:12:23.680 about nine and a half minutes now.

00:12:25.400 Hurry up.

00:12:28.680 You're one of those people.

00:12:30.680 And

00:12:31.160 you're for Elon Musk.

00:12:34.180 You know,

00:12:34.980 a guy who believes

00:12:36.080 the same things

00:12:36.800 that you believe

00:12:37.940 about global warming

00:12:38.920 and has done more,

00:12:39.800 you know,

00:12:41.040 for global warming

00:12:41.920 than anybody else alive

00:12:43.500 on the planet.

00:12:44.020 But I see why you hate him so much.

00:12:47.260 Because of things like this,

00:12:49.760 he's going to make sure

00:12:50.960 that every dollar

00:12:52.400 that you pay into tax,

00:12:54.980 which I know you love

00:12:55.860 because it's patriotic,

00:12:57.060 right?

00:12:57.420 Am I right?

00:12:58.800 Hey,

00:12:59.140 do your patriotic duty.

00:13:00.640 Pay tax.

00:13:01.260 And you love high taxes.

00:13:03.240 You personally love them,

00:13:05.520 right?

00:13:05.940 It's not,

00:13:06.880 no,

00:13:07.100 tax somebody else,

00:13:08.060 not me.

00:13:08.540 No, no, no.

00:13:09.040 Not with you.

00:13:09.880 You love taxes.

00:13:11.980 And you just want them

00:13:13.600 as high as they can possibly be.

00:13:16.020 He's just making sure

00:13:17.580 that the tax dollars

00:13:19.880 aren't going to something

00:13:21.740 that you

00:13:22.820 don't necessarily

00:13:24.600 agree with

00:13:25.940 because it's unconstitutional,

00:13:29.760 you know?

00:13:31.120 Like,

00:13:32.120 right?

00:13:33.160 You're for this one.

00:13:34.520 You're for this one.

00:13:35.680 You want,

00:13:36.120 because that one makes sense.

00:13:38.140 But can you imagine

00:13:39.400 if those tax dollars,

00:13:41.020 nine million dollars,

00:13:42.320 Donald Trump,

00:13:43.000 use that to prop up,

00:13:45.480 you know,

00:13:46.400 a pro-Second Amendment

00:13:48.740 NGO?

00:13:49.800 Ha! 0.89

00:13:50.220 That would be crazy.

00:13:51.660 We'd have to stop that

00:13:52.720 right now,

00:13:53.260 wouldn't we?

00:13:57.200 This is incredible

00:13:58.900 what they are doing.

00:14:01.560 They have zero credibility

00:14:03.980 on any of this,

00:14:06.080 any of this.

00:14:06.960 how do you defend

00:14:10.060 this,

00:14:13.060 just this,

00:14:13.640 just this,

00:14:14.080 nine million dollars?

00:14:16.740 Well,

00:14:17.280 nine million dollars.

00:14:18.600 I don't know if you know this,

00:14:19.480 but nine million dollars

00:14:20.440 here,

00:14:20.800 there,

00:14:20.960 and everywhere

00:14:21.400 kind of adds up.

00:14:23.260 Usually adds up to,

00:14:25.020 oh,

00:14:25.300 my gosh,

00:14:26.200 where did I pull this number up?

00:14:27.480 4.7 trillion dollars

00:14:29.420 that the Treasury

00:14:30.220 just has no idea

00:14:31.280 where they put that.

00:14:32.020 look,

00:14:36.140 the world is easy

00:14:38.440 to explain.

00:14:40.040 Our government

00:14:40.660 and what's happening

00:14:41.800 is really easy

00:14:44.080 to explain.

00:14:45.400 So I'm going to slow

00:14:46.100 the train down a bit.

00:14:47.940 I'm going to explain it.

00:14:51.240 Why don't we just,

00:14:51.880 why don't we just imagine

00:14:53.400 for just a second

00:14:54.260 that our government

00:14:55.560 is a restaurant,

00:14:59.060 a bustling restaurant,

00:15:00.200 where every section

00:15:02.060 in the restaurant

00:15:02.920 plays a vital role

00:15:04.720 because they want

00:15:06.580 to create

00:15:07.120 a memorable

00:15:07.700 dining experience

00:15:08.820 and make the people happy.

00:15:10.800 At the heart

00:15:11.920 of the kitchen

00:15:13.320 is the chef

00:15:14.920 in this restaurant.

00:15:16.700 That would be called

00:15:17.440 the president.

00:15:18.480 He's the chef.

00:15:19.680 He crafts the menu

00:15:20.960 and oversees

00:15:21.740 the culinary creations

00:15:23.700 all in line

00:15:24.800 with the original purpose

00:15:26.100 of the restaurant.

00:15:27.680 So if it's an Italian 0.95

00:15:28.580 establishment,

00:15:29.200 he can't put goulash

00:15:30.520 on the menu.

00:15:31.680 That wouldn't be good.

00:15:33.420 Every four years,

00:15:34.840 the diners,

00:15:35.640 the citizens,

00:15:36.600 if you will,

00:15:37.280 the diners

00:15:37.960 have the opportunity

00:15:39.040 to review

00:15:40.020 the chef's performance

00:15:41.260 and say,

00:15:41.820 yeah,

00:15:42.860 you know,

00:15:43.320 I don't,

00:15:43.760 I don't like his fare.

00:15:46.120 I don't think it's good.

00:15:47.060 It's not good

00:15:47.500 for the restaurant.

00:15:48.160 After all,

00:15:49.040 we, the people,

00:15:49.720 the diners,

00:15:50.400 own the restaurant.

00:15:52.940 So in the dining area,

00:15:54.540 the servers,

00:15:55.540 our elected members

00:15:56.440 of Congress,

00:15:57.120 interact directly

00:15:58.060 with the patrons.

00:15:59.480 They're elected

00:16:00.220 every two years.

00:16:01.220 They're hired

00:16:01.580 every two years.

00:16:02.420 Everybody in the restaurant,

00:16:03.600 all the patrons

00:16:04.120 have to say,

00:16:04.700 you know what?

00:16:05.160 I like him.

00:16:05.780 I don't like him.

00:16:07.120 Replace him.

00:16:07.880 But the servers do that 0.52

00:16:09.040 because they're attuned

00:16:10.260 to the immediate needs

00:16:11.420 and the feedback

00:16:12.220 of the diners.

00:16:13.260 Now,

00:16:13.380 they can relay compliments

00:16:15.300 and concerns

00:16:15.980 to the chef,

00:16:16.920 suggesting adjustments

00:16:18.080 or new dishes

00:16:19.040 based on patrons' desires.

00:16:20.700 However,

00:16:22.300 they do not step

00:16:23.720 into the kitchen

00:16:24.700 to alter recipes

00:16:26.260 or dictate cooking methods

00:16:28.760 or tell the chef

00:16:31.640 who to hire and fire.

00:16:33.400 Their role is to represent

00:16:34.880 the diner's voices

00:16:35.860 and ensure their satisfaction.

00:16:38.540 The chef, in turn,

00:16:39.880 selects his own kitchen staff,

00:16:42.440 the sous chefs,

00:16:43.460 the line cooks,

00:16:44.220 the dishwashers,

00:16:44.980 without any interruption

00:16:46.200 from the dining room.

00:16:47.080 And the same can be said

00:16:49.040 for the chef.

00:16:50.660 He can't interrupt

00:16:51.560 and tell which servers

00:16:52.640 are hired or fired

00:16:53.740 or which are assigned

00:16:54.680 to which tables.

00:16:55.720 That's not his job.

00:16:57.740 Now,

00:16:58.220 the servers don't influence

00:16:59.740 the chef's hiring decisions

00:17:01.020 and vice versa.

00:17:02.660 It's a clear boundary,

00:17:04.620 front of house,

00:17:05.440 back of house.

00:17:06.700 That way,

00:17:07.160 the whole thing

00:17:07.740 runs smoothly.

00:17:09.300 Now,

00:17:09.980 just to make sure

00:17:11.200 that this Italian restaurant

00:17:12.840 remains an Italian restaurant,

00:17:15.840 you've got a critic

00:17:17.440 who comes in

00:17:18.580 once in a while

00:17:19.980 when there's a problem

00:17:20.860 or a dispute

00:17:21.720 and when they start happening

00:17:23.980 between the kitchen

00:17:24.800 and the dining area,

00:17:26.820 the role is to assess

00:17:28.380 whether the chef

00:17:29.520 and the servers

00:17:30.160 are adhering

00:17:31.080 to the restaurant's

00:17:32.660 founding recipes

00:17:34.020 and standards.

00:17:35.200 Are they holding that true?

00:17:36.820 They don't rewrite the menu

00:17:38.300 or manage the staff.

00:17:39.660 Instead,

00:17:40.200 all they do

00:17:41.180 is just say,

00:17:42.100 yep,

00:17:42.340 that was what was on the menu

00:17:43.920 and looks like

00:17:44.720 he's creating that.

00:17:45.840 Recently,

00:17:48.120 there's been a stir

00:17:49.540 in our governmental restaurant.

00:17:52.260 The chef has decided

00:17:53.760 to revamp the kitchen,

00:17:56.140 bringing in new staff

00:17:57.400 because it's been

00:17:58.840 wildly inefficient

00:17:59.820 and lacking of good flavor.

00:18:03.520 Goulash is appearing

00:18:04.680 on the menu.

00:18:06.540 However,

00:18:07.040 some of the servers

00:18:07.860 are attempting

00:18:08.600 to stop the chef

00:18:10.460 from hiring

00:18:11.840 and firing his own staff,

00:18:13.840 challenging the chef's authority

00:18:15.360 to manage their own team.

00:18:17.920 Now,

00:18:18.080 the situation,

00:18:18.940 again,

00:18:19.700 akin to the chef

00:18:20.460 trying to dictate

00:18:21.180 which servers

00:18:21.900 should attend

00:18:22.920 specific tables.

00:18:24.980 But this is disturbing

00:18:26.920 the force.

00:18:28.520 I feel like there's

00:18:29.340 a million voices

00:18:30.400 crying out

00:18:31.080 and then suddenly

00:18:31.700 silenced.

00:18:32.480 The restaurant

00:18:37.120 has the servers

00:18:38.760 the chef

00:18:39.680 and the critic.

00:18:41.580 In the early

00:18:42.660 20th century,

00:18:44.200 some proposed

00:18:45.060 a different model

00:18:46.260 for our restaurant.

00:18:48.100 Woodrow Wilson.

00:18:49.300 They suggested

00:18:50.360 that a group

00:18:51.240 of experts

00:18:51.900 should oversee

00:18:52.600 both the kitchen

00:18:53.360 and the dining area

00:18:54.460 believing they knew

00:18:55.500 best what patrons

00:18:56.560 should consume.

00:18:57.400 This sidelined

00:18:59.440 all of the direct

00:19:00.280 feedback from the diners

00:19:01.500 and concentrated

00:19:02.180 the decision-making power

00:19:03.540 leading to a disconnect

00:19:04.740 between the establishment

00:19:05.840 and the owners

00:19:07.140 of the restaurant.

00:19:09.040 In fact,

00:19:09.720 it was never fully understood

00:19:10.860 what they were doing

00:19:11.740 or run by the patrons

00:19:13.340 who only eat there.

00:19:15.680 They're the actual owners.

00:19:17.600 All three,

00:19:18.720 restaurant,

00:19:19.520 chef,

00:19:20.280 the servers,

00:19:21.240 and the critic,

00:19:22.640 were part of a covert plan

00:19:24.760 to hire someone

00:19:25.880 unknown to the patrons

00:19:27.080 who wanted to run

00:19:27.880 the kitchen

00:19:28.320 and serve only goulash.

00:19:30.700 The chef

00:19:31.660 is now making

00:19:32.800 the changes

00:19:33.420 to restore it

00:19:34.500 to an Italian restaurant.

00:19:38.980 That's all

00:19:39.740 that's happening here.

00:19:41.860 If you've ever had

00:19:42.800 an ounce of gun training,

00:19:44.380 you know the age-old rule

00:19:45.600 if you're going to shoot,

00:19:46.700 shoot to kill.

00:19:47.580 You don't shoot

00:19:48.000 somebody in the leg,

00:19:48.760 you never point a gun

00:19:49.640 at somebody

00:19:50.060 that you don't intend

00:19:50.920 on killing.

00:19:52.000 Our president

00:19:52.680 is famously

00:19:53.680 unaware of

00:19:54.540 that rule.

00:19:56.600 What do you do

00:19:57.400 when there's

00:19:57.820 an emergency situation?

00:19:59.120 It calls for action

00:19:59.880 on your part,

00:20:00.620 but it doesn't call

00:20:01.840 for you to shoot to kill. 0.81

00:20:03.920 The Berna Launcher

00:20:04.840 is there.

00:20:05.340 It's a non-lethal

00:20:06.200 alternative

00:20:06.720 to safeguarding your home.

00:20:07.900 It is legal 0.53

00:20:08.380 in all 50 states.

00:20:09.440 No permits

00:20:09.920 or background checks required.

00:20:11.200 It can be used

00:20:11.760 by all age groups

00:20:12.740 over 18.

00:20:13.800 The Berna Launcher

00:20:14.460 has powerful deterrents

00:20:15.640 like tear gas

00:20:16.260 and kinetic rounds

00:20:17.000 with a 60-foot range.

00:20:18.720 One shot

00:20:19.340 can incapacitate

00:20:20.460 an attacker

00:20:20.980 for up to 40 minutes.

00:20:22.460 With the Berna Launcher,

00:20:23.480 you can be confident

00:20:24.380 that you're prepared

00:20:25.300 to defend yourself

00:20:26.440 against potential threats

00:20:27.620 trusted by over

00:20:28.900 500 government agencies,

00:20:30.600 police departments,

00:20:31.360 security firms

00:20:31.920 all over the country

00:20:32.680 because they work.

00:20:34.100 If a situation

00:20:34.780 calls for action

00:20:35.680 but not for lethal violence,

00:20:37.920 the Berna Launcher

00:20:38.600 is exactly what you need

00:20:39.960 at your side.

00:20:52.420 back to the podcast.

00:20:53.560 This is the best

00:20:54.420 of the Glenn Beck program

00:20:55.300 and don't forget,

00:20:56.500 rate us on iTunes.

00:20:59.360 All right,

00:20:59.660 let's go to Canada

00:21:00.420 and one of our good friends

00:21:01.740 up in Canada,

00:21:03.660 Ezra Levant.

00:21:04.320 Hello, Ezra.

00:21:04.900 How are you?

00:21:06.480 It's great to be on the show.

00:21:08.260 You know,

00:21:08.460 I love America

00:21:09.220 and I love Canada too

00:21:10.400 and I don't think it's,

00:21:12.560 I don't think I have to choose.

00:21:14.180 I also love Trump,

00:21:15.100 by the way,

00:21:16.240 and so it's been,

00:21:18.020 it's been a bumpy few weeks

00:21:19.840 because Trump said,

00:21:21.020 hey, Canada,

00:21:22.080 fix your border problem

00:21:23.440 or we're going to slap you 0.99

00:21:24.300 with tariffs.

00:21:25.080 Yeah.

00:21:25.340 And when you think

00:21:26.300 of open borders,

00:21:27.040 you think the Mexican border,

00:21:28.320 right?

00:21:28.920 And it's true,

00:21:29.700 the vast majority,

00:21:31.180 numerically,

00:21:32.420 of the smuggling of people

00:21:34.060 and drugs

00:21:34.500 is from the Mexican side.

00:21:35.840 But Canada's not perfect.

00:21:37.180 It's getting worse.

00:21:38.460 There's actually more

00:21:39.560 would-be terrorists

00:21:40.820 that are nabbed

00:21:41.800 on the northern border

00:21:42.660 than the Mexico border.

00:21:44.580 A lot of Chinese as well.

00:21:47.460 Exactly.

00:21:48.820 And the cartels

00:21:49.960 are active in Canada,

00:21:51.260 including not just

00:21:52.020 the Mexican cartels,

00:21:53.100 but, you know,

00:21:53.700 there's big meth labs

00:21:54.700 being found in Canada

00:21:56.380 every week.

00:21:57.100 Here's the thing.

00:21:57.660 If you look at the announcement

00:21:58.940 that Trump made,

00:22:00.020 this was back,

00:22:00.880 I think,

00:22:01.100 in November.

00:22:02.160 He said,

00:22:02.660 look,

00:22:03.420 by the time I'm inaugurated

00:22:05.160 on Jan 20,

00:22:06.000 I want you,

00:22:07.700 Mexico,

00:22:08.320 and you,

00:22:08.900 Canada,

00:22:09.200 to basically

00:22:10.340 do the preparatory work

00:22:12.540 to seal the borders.

00:22:14.340 Start working on it now.

00:22:16.360 Or else,

00:22:17.420 I'll slap you with a tariff.

00:22:18.820 So I think a grown-up

00:22:20.080 would say,

00:22:20.660 okay,

00:22:21.000 he wants us

00:22:21.620 to seal the borders.

00:22:23.560 We should probably do that

00:22:24.560 in our own interest anyways.

00:22:26.680 And he's got an or else

00:22:27.740 in there

00:22:28.060 that maybe stings a bit,

00:22:29.220 but let's just do the work

00:22:30.240 because it's in our interest too.

00:22:32.060 Trouble is,

00:22:33.600 Trudeau said,

00:22:35.060 nah,

00:22:35.420 I'm not going to seal the border.

00:22:36.540 I'm not going to crack down

00:22:37.340 on illegal migrants

00:22:38.620 and illegal drugs

00:22:39.400 even though that's something

00:22:40.080 we should do.

00:22:40.700 I'm going to focus on the or else

00:22:42.460 and I'm going to get into

00:22:43.860 sort of a staring contest

00:22:45.280 with an ally

00:22:47.040 ten times bigger than us.

00:22:49.520 Right.

00:22:49.880 And I've watched

00:22:51.060 Trump's announcement.

00:22:52.200 He wants the border fixed.

00:22:54.560 The tariff is the or else.

00:22:56.240 But here's the thing,

00:22:57.100 and I don't know if Trump

00:22:58.120 really thought about this

00:22:59.380 because he's dealing

00:23:00.320 with bigger fish,

00:23:01.440 like he's dealing with Ukraine.

00:23:02.800 He's dealing with Gaza 1.00

00:23:04.460 and he's dealing with the economy

00:23:05.960 and the fires in L.A.

00:23:07.380 and getting his nominees

00:23:08.460 through the Senate.

00:23:09.720 So he's dealing with huge things.

00:23:11.000 I don't think he's following

00:23:12.080 the minutiae of Canadian politics

00:23:14.180 because let me tell you one thing

00:23:15.260 I think Trump didn't count on.

00:23:17.800 I mean,

00:23:17.940 Trump's a master negotiator.

00:23:20.220 And the thing about a negotiation

00:23:21.720 is the other guy,

00:23:24.200 you know,

00:23:24.620 you've got to be willing

00:23:26.520 to walk away

00:23:27.120 and you've got to make it

00:23:27.940 so the other guy

00:23:28.800 sort of doesn't want

00:23:30.740 to walk away

00:23:31.300 because his alternative

00:23:32.000 is worse.

00:23:32.500 But here's the thing

00:23:32.960 about Trudeau.

00:23:33.880 I don't know if you remember

00:23:34.620 this, Glenn,

00:23:35.540 but in January,

00:23:37.100 Justin Trudeau announced

00:23:38.280 he was going to resign.

00:23:39.860 Yes.

00:23:40.420 And that's going to take effect

00:23:41.500 on March 9th.

00:23:42.680 That's like three weeks

00:23:44.280 from now.

00:23:45.120 So Trudeau doesn't have

00:23:47.060 the interest

00:23:47.780 of getting a deal.

00:23:49.080 He wants his final few weeks

00:23:50.880 as prime minister

00:23:51.700 to be, you know,

00:23:53.860 an epic superhero

00:23:55.320 coming to save Canada.

00:23:56.540 He wants to be Captain Canada

00:23:57.920 fighting against

00:23:59.100 the big bad Trump.

00:24:00.420 He doesn't actually want

00:24:02.440 a deal, Glenn.

00:24:04.420 Because that's boring

00:24:05.720 and that looks like

00:24:06.760 he's taking orders

00:24:07.580 from Trump.

00:24:08.240 If he fights Trump,

00:24:10.440 if he says,

00:24:11.020 no, no, no,

00:24:11.400 I don't want to spend

00:24:12.100 a few billion

00:24:12.760 on border security.

00:24:14.200 I want to get in

00:24:14.980 a hundred billion dollar

00:24:16.240 trade war.

00:24:17.500 See, Trump's not used

00:24:18.620 to negotiating

00:24:19.340 with a guy

00:24:20.520 who actually wants

00:24:21.680 to hurt himself.

00:24:23.240 But why would Trudeau

00:24:24.420 want that?

00:24:25.100 Two reasons.

00:24:25.760 Number one,

00:24:26.920 to change the narrative,

00:24:28.180 he's the Captain Canada

00:24:29.440 saving our country

00:24:30.320 from the big bad Trump.

00:24:31.880 We've got a lot

00:24:32.320 of Trump derangement

00:24:33.040 syndrome over here.

00:24:34.060 But number two,

00:24:35.760 Trudeau has wrecked

00:24:36.680 our economy

00:24:37.260 through taxes

00:24:38.060 and debt

00:24:38.800 and inflation

00:24:39.860 and cost of living.

00:24:41.200 So if Trump actually

00:24:42.520 does bring in

00:24:43.540 punitive tariffs,

00:24:45.120 Trudeau can say,

00:24:45.840 uh-huh,

00:24:46.680 this is on Trump.

00:24:48.100 It's not me.

00:24:48.720 I didn't wreck

00:24:49.280 the economy.

00:24:49.840 Trump did.

00:24:50.540 So the thing is,

00:24:51.380 Trump is dealing

00:24:52.020 with a guy

00:24:52.620 who's acting

00:24:53.540 in bad faith.

00:24:54.660 Justin Trudeau

00:24:55.660 wants a trade war.

00:24:57.600 He wants our countries

00:24:58.880 to fight.

00:25:00.860 So let me ask you this.

00:25:02.320 I've been watching

00:25:03.040 the reaction

00:25:03.620 of some Canadians

00:25:04.800 and they're like,

00:25:05.680 we're not going to become

00:25:06.940 the 51st state.

00:25:08.100 Do you guys understand

00:25:09.180 trolling?

00:25:10.720 Donald Trump,

00:25:11.520 he's calling Trudeau

00:25:12.860 the governor

00:25:13.680 of the 51st state

00:25:15.700 to minimalize him

00:25:17.480 as a mock

00:25:20.000 of Trudeau.

00:25:22.420 We're not thinking

00:25:23.940 about buying you.

00:25:24.780 We're not offering

00:25:25.380 to buy you

00:25:26.040 and we're certainly

00:25:26.620 not sending troops

00:25:27.500 up there to take you.

00:25:29.020 Do the Canadians 1.00

00:25:29.960 just not understand that?

00:25:32.140 I think it's a combination

00:25:33.360 because here's the thing.

00:25:35.000 For the last 10 years,

00:25:36.220 Trudeau has tried

00:25:37.180 to denature Canada.

00:25:39.440 Our founding prime minister

00:25:41.160 is named John A. MacDonald,

00:25:42.640 Sir John A. MacDonald,

00:25:43.560 our version of George Washington.

00:25:45.680 He's on our $10 bill.

00:25:47.260 There's statues

00:25:47.860 of him everywhere.

00:25:48.980 Trudeau stripped him

00:25:50.200 off the $10 bill.

00:25:51.720 Trudeau presided

00:25:53.080 over his statues

00:25:54.320 being knocked down.

00:25:55.700 Trudeau has told us

00:25:57.580 that we are a country

00:25:58.860 that committed genocide

00:26:00.140 against Indian people. 0.96

00:26:02.640 Trudeau calls us

00:26:03.680 sexist, racist. 0.58

00:26:04.820 He says,

00:26:05.800 and he told the New York Times,

00:26:06.900 we have no core values.

00:26:09.200 We're basically a hotel.

00:26:10.660 So he spent,

00:26:11.820 he changed our national anthem.

00:26:14.460 Who asked him to do that?

00:26:16.100 Like he's doing

00:26:16.580 all these things.

00:26:17.860 He went on

00:26:18.480 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:26:20.060 He changed your national anthem

00:26:21.460 from O Canada to what?

00:26:23.760 It's still O Canada,

00:26:24.720 but he changed the words.

00:26:26.560 And like,

00:26:27.000 who asked him to do that?

00:26:28.420 He went on

00:26:29.320 Anderson Cooper's show

00:26:30.340 and Anderson Cooper said,

00:26:31.600 well, tell me

00:26:32.200 what's a Canadian?

00:26:33.260 Okay, that's a question

00:26:34.220 you'd expect

00:26:34.720 a prime minister to answer.

00:26:36.060 He said,

00:26:36.820 well, we're not Americans.

00:26:38.700 That's not,

00:26:39.400 that's not an identity.

00:26:40.480 That's sort of a,

00:26:41.620 that's sort of an attitude.

00:26:42.680 And so here's a guy

00:26:44.300 who for 10 years

00:26:45.400 has derided

00:26:46.620 what it means to be Canada.

00:26:47.780 And he's given away

00:26:48.580 citizenship to millions.

00:26:51.440 So I think Trump

00:26:53.980 in his uncanny way

00:26:55.680 detected within Trudeau

00:26:57.920 a bit of an inferiority complex.

00:26:59.640 Oh yeah.

00:27:00.060 A bit of a weakness.

00:27:01.040 And so that 51st state thing,

00:27:03.800 governor thing,

00:27:04.680 it actually stings

00:27:06.920 because Trudeau

00:27:08.040 has spent 10 years

00:27:08.860 destroying our national identity

00:27:10.200 and Trump must have

00:27:11.720 grokked that somehow

00:27:13.400 because every time

00:27:14.520 Trump says that

00:27:15.440 it actually hurts

00:27:17.200 because we have spent

00:27:19.040 10 years destroying

00:27:20.140 what's made us Canadian

00:27:21.400 and Trump figured it out.

00:27:23.860 So, well,

00:27:24.780 he's very good.

00:27:25.720 He's very good

00:27:26.760 at knowing

00:27:27.360 where people's weaknesses are.

00:27:29.420 I think that's one of his,

00:27:31.120 one of his real skills

00:27:32.800 in negotiating.

00:27:33.440 He knows what the other side

00:27:36.280 is thinking

00:27:36.940 and what they're afraid of.

00:27:39.060 Let me,

00:27:39.860 let me ask you this.

00:27:42.520 Are we,

00:27:43.920 is this going to turn

00:27:45.340 into something?

00:27:47.360 Well, you know,

00:27:48.180 there was some booing

00:27:49.600 and there was a hockey game

00:27:50.440 between our two.

00:27:50.980 No, we're very well aware of it.

00:27:52.740 Yeah.

00:27:53.180 And the booing, 0.68

00:27:54.080 I think people are,

00:27:55.780 there's some people

00:27:56.640 sort of startled

00:27:57.360 because the idea

00:27:58.500 of fighting with America

00:27:59.540 is unthinkable.

00:28:00.440 Like we're,

00:28:01.480 you really,

00:28:02.300 you almost can't tell

00:28:03.160 a difference

00:28:03.540 between a Canadian 0.91

00:28:04.260 and American

00:28:04.720 other than how we pronounce

00:28:05.820 a few words

00:28:06.700 like a boot,

00:28:08.220 the hoose.

00:28:09.540 Right.

00:28:09.840 How long you'll wait

00:28:10.480 for healthcare.

00:28:11.340 Yeah.

00:28:11.520 There's just a few things.

00:28:13.060 I mean,

00:28:13.560 there are some differences,

00:28:14.400 of course,

00:28:14.800 but I can't think

00:28:15.640 of two countries

00:28:16.260 that are more similar.

00:28:17.160 Right.

00:28:17.340 So the idea

00:28:17.960 that we're in some battle

00:28:19.100 with America,

00:28:19.720 it's confusing

00:28:20.940 to Canadians.

00:28:21.920 But here's the thing.

00:28:22.840 Let me just say

00:28:23.300 a quick thing

00:28:23.680 about the 51st state.

00:28:25.420 You know how California

00:28:26.540 is this huge

00:28:27.720 electoral college

00:28:28.660 that always goes

00:28:29.440 Democrat every time?

00:28:31.140 Let me say this

00:28:31.680 to my brothers

00:28:32.260 in the United States.

00:28:33.480 You do not want

00:28:34.260 another 41 million people

00:28:35.900 who will vote Democrat.

00:28:37.240 Oh,

00:28:37.740 I'm sure.

00:28:38.600 Oh,

00:28:39.060 we've made that point.

00:28:40.880 We've made that point.

00:28:42.180 That's right.

00:28:42.640 I myself

00:28:43.600 would be a Trump supporter

00:28:45.000 in a heartbeat

00:28:45.580 and maybe the province

00:28:46.780 of Alberta

00:28:47.780 where I'm from would.

00:28:48.700 Right.

00:28:48.820 And by the way,

00:28:50.240 I know you have

00:28:50.900 some challenges

00:28:51.480 with French,

00:28:52.400 sorry,

00:28:52.900 Spanish bilingualism.

00:28:54.000 You know a quarter

00:28:54.600 of our country is French.

00:28:55.820 Oh,

00:28:56.200 we know.

00:28:56.840 So,

00:28:57.320 I mean,

00:28:57.880 get ready for French 0.62

00:28:59.020 to be spoken

00:28:59.980 in your Congress.

00:29:00.740 I'm just saying,

00:29:01.500 you know,

00:29:01.960 there's probably

00:29:02.340 a few details

00:29:03.280 you didn't think about,

00:29:03.920 but let me tell you

00:29:04.580 what actually matters.

00:29:07.800 I don't know

00:29:08.240 if you know,

00:29:08.640 but our free trade agreement

00:29:10.460 that Trump renegotiated

00:29:11.820 with Canada,

00:29:13.060 it already gives you

00:29:14.120 everything you want.

00:29:15.180 We have 170 billion

00:29:18.420 with a B

00:29:19.080 barrels of oil

00:29:20.760 in our oil sands

00:29:22.060 and you have access to it.

00:29:23.900 You have preferential

00:29:25.060 access to it.

00:29:26.560 And so when Trump

00:29:27.200 talks about slapping

00:29:28.060 that with a tariff,

00:29:29.220 my phrase is,

00:29:30.380 how's that American first?

00:29:31.920 You're the customer.

00:29:33.320 You need that oil

00:29:34.160 to displace

00:29:34.940 the conflict oil

00:29:36.120 you're buying from OPEC.

00:29:38.140 How about

00:29:38.920 instead of

00:29:40.040 slapping oil

00:29:41.400 with a tariff

00:29:41.980 since that's just

00:29:42.780 going to your refineries,

00:29:43.820 we're the number one

00:29:44.460 source of American

00:29:45.160 oil other than America?

00:29:46.500 You make about

00:29:47.000 half of your own oil

00:29:48.000 in Texas

00:29:48.920 and other places,

00:29:49.780 but the other half,

00:29:51.520 we're your number one source.

00:29:52.780 Then comes Mexico, 0.98

00:29:53.760 then Saudi Arabia.

00:29:54.760 How about

00:29:55.120 replace that OPEC oil

00:29:56.360 with more Canadian oil?

00:29:59.960 And I know

00:30:00.300 Donald Trump's

00:30:01.020 a deal maker,

00:30:01.740 art of the deal.

00:30:02.360 Well, how about

00:30:02.860 do a 50-year deal

00:30:06.400 with Canada?

00:30:07.060 You could buy

00:30:07.700 every one

00:30:09.160 of those

00:30:09.520 170 barrels of oil,

00:30:11.980 170 billion,

00:30:12.900 and that would last

00:30:13.960 you 50 years

00:30:15.100 you would be able

00:30:16.000 to displace

00:30:16.620 every single

00:30:17.480 foreign barrel

00:30:18.340 of crude.

00:30:19.520 $13 trillion deal.

00:30:21.780 That's a bigger deal

00:30:22.680 than Greenland.

00:30:23.840 You have access

00:30:24.820 to that oil.

00:30:25.780 It's yours.

00:30:27.280 But most of the

00:30:27.940 companies operating

00:30:29.020 there are

00:30:29.940 American-owned.

00:30:31.060 Even the Canadian

00:30:31.740 companies,

00:30:32.260 they're all listed

00:30:32.740 on your American

00:30:33.320 stock exchanges.

00:30:34.160 You own

00:30:34.900 the companies

00:30:35.960 that are making

00:30:36.600 the money.

00:30:37.040 It's American

00:30:37.680 all the way down.

00:30:38.700 And you don't

00:30:40.900 want China

00:30:41.420 to get access

00:30:42.100 to that oil.

00:30:42.780 China's poking 1.00

00:30:43.460 around Canada's

00:30:44.260 oil sands.

00:30:45.180 What does China

00:30:46.160 want?

00:30:46.520 China wants you 0.66

00:30:47.180 to push Canada

00:30:47.880 away.

00:30:48.380 Don't.

00:30:49.060 Don't, don't,

00:30:49.840 don't, don't do it.

00:30:51.520 And I just,

00:30:53.060 I think that

00:30:53.980 Trump is shooting

00:30:55.340 at Trudeau

00:30:55.980 but hitting us.

00:30:56.800 Don't do that.

00:30:57.320 I have a creative

00:30:58.040 way to get back

00:30:58.800 at Trudeau,

00:30:59.340 but don't do it

00:31:00.060 by attacking Canada.

00:31:01.480 What's your creative

00:31:02.140 way?

00:31:03.460 Well, I'll tell you.

00:31:04.180 I mentioned before

00:31:05.580 that Justin Trudeau

00:31:06.420 said Canada

00:31:07.080 has committed

00:31:07.880 a genocide

00:31:08.720 against our

00:31:10.080 native peoples.

00:31:11.060 But he says

00:31:12.100 that in the

00:31:12.660 present tense.

00:31:14.060 He says we

00:31:15.240 are committing

00:31:16.140 a genocide.

00:31:16.780 Really?

00:31:18.140 That sounds

00:31:18.800 like a crime

00:31:19.360 against humanity.

00:31:20.320 What if Trump

00:31:21.180 were to issue

00:31:22.780 an executive

00:31:23.300 order saying

00:31:23.920 taking notice

00:31:24.800 of Justin

00:31:25.820 Trudeau's

00:31:26.220 confession

00:31:26.760 that he is

00:31:27.740 presiding over

00:31:28.600 a genocide.

00:31:30.160 We hereby put

00:31:30.840 sanctions on

00:31:31.480 Justin Trudeau

00:31:32.260 and his

00:31:32.960 cabinet.

00:31:34.180 They may not

00:31:34.840 enter the

00:31:35.220 United States.

00:31:36.160 They may not

00:31:36.700 fly over our

00:31:37.360 country.

00:31:37.800 They may not

00:31:38.220 do that.

00:31:38.560 So just like

00:31:39.440 Trump is doing

00:31:40.760 with that

00:31:41.180 international

00:31:42.180 criminal court

00:31:43.540 that wanted

00:31:44.500 to arrest

00:31:45.000 Netanyahu,

00:31:45.980 if you smack

00:31:46.880 Justin Trudeau

00:31:47.700 around,

00:31:48.280 he loves going

00:31:48.980 to New York.

00:31:49.500 He goes down

00:31:50.000 to New York

00:31:50.380 and parties

00:31:51.000 and he sort

00:31:52.120 of does what

00:31:52.780 happens in Vegas

00:31:53.780 stays in Vegas.

00:31:54.700 Trudeau loves

00:31:55.500 going to America.

00:31:56.940 If you took

00:31:57.800 that away from

00:31:58.500 him,

00:31:59.080 Trudeau would

00:31:59.640 be floored.

00:32:01.340 Go after

00:32:02.040 Trudeau.

00:32:02.440 You want to

00:32:02.820 punish Trudeau?

00:32:03.420 Me too.

00:32:04.180 I got some

00:32:04.680 ideas.

00:32:06.420 But don't

00:32:06.800 see the

00:32:07.220 Ukrainians.

00:32:08.860 Get all the

00:32:09.620 oil you want.

00:32:10.360 Let's be good

00:32:10.940 friends.

00:32:11.360 And by the way,

00:32:11.840 you do a $13

00:32:12.540 trillion deal to

00:32:14.000 buy all our

00:32:14.600 oil for 50

00:32:15.480 years.

00:32:16.280 Now we got

00:32:16.800 some money to

00:32:17.340 build up our

00:32:17.960 own forces and

00:32:19.080 be your best

00:32:20.040 buddies again like 1.00

00:32:20.760 we were on D-Day.

00:32:22.260 You're streaming

00:32:22.920 the best of Glenn

00:32:23.900 Beck.

00:32:28.200 you get podcasts.

00:32:30.260 My friend Sean

00:32:31.120 Spicer, how are

00:32:31.800 you, sir?

00:32:33.220 I'm fantastic.

00:32:34.480 How are you?

00:32:35.140 I'm so good.

00:32:36.240 I'm so good.

00:32:37.120 I don't want you to

00:32:37.820 tell the end of the

00:32:38.560 story yet.

00:32:39.280 I want you to start

00:32:40.000 at the beginning.

00:32:42.980 What happened when

00:32:44.380 you left the White 0.86

00:32:45.380 House and Biden

00:32:46.440 took over as

00:32:47.800 president?

00:32:49.160 I'll make you

00:32:49.880 back one step

00:32:50.420 further.

00:32:50.900 Okay.

00:32:51.260 So I stepped

00:32:51.940 down as White 0.91

00:32:52.460 House press

00:32:52.800 secretary and the

00:32:53.500 president has

00:32:54.040 always been kind

00:32:54.860 and offered to

00:32:56.520 appoint me to a

00:32:57.180 couple of boards.

00:32:57.840 He appointed me

00:32:58.580 to two of them.

00:32:59.320 One of them was

00:33:00.020 the White House

00:33:00.500 Commission on

00:33:01.140 Fellows.

00:33:01.540 I was a

00:33:01.860 commissioner there.

00:33:02.820 And then he also

00:33:03.540 was kind enough to

00:33:04.700 make me one of

00:33:06.160 his appointees to

00:33:07.220 the board of

00:33:08.280 visitors to the

00:33:08.840 U.S.

00:33:09.060 Naval Academy.

00:33:09.880 So I was sworn

00:33:10.400 into office.

00:33:11.660 Joe Biden comes

00:33:12.480 into office.

00:33:14.180 And so on

00:33:15.620 January 20th,

00:33:16.920 myself and all

00:33:17.960 of the White 0.86

00:33:18.480 House commissioners

00:33:19.720 at that

00:33:20.200 fellowship committee

00:33:20.940 resigned because

00:33:22.100 it's a White 0.95

00:33:22.780 House commission

00:33:23.320 and the new

00:33:24.100 president has a

00:33:24.980 right to have

00:33:25.700 people for White

00:33:26.900 House commissions.

00:33:27.560 Fair enough.

00:33:28.700 Well, September

00:33:30.420 1st, I get an

00:33:31.800 email of 2021 and

00:33:33.160 it says, Dear

00:33:33.660 Mr.

00:33:33.940 Spicer, thank

00:33:34.500 you for your

00:33:34.900 service in the

00:33:35.540 U.S.

00:33:35.900 Naval Academy

00:33:36.460 Board of

00:33:36.900 Visitors.

00:33:38.620 By 6 o'clock

00:33:39.760 tonight, please

00:33:41.260 submit your

00:33:41.800 resignation or you

00:33:42.760 will be fired.

00:33:44.120 And I thought,

00:33:44.600 whoa, what?

00:33:46.080 Now, just for

00:33:46.960 context, remember,

00:33:47.680 Glenn, September

00:33:48.780 1st, my term

00:33:50.240 ended November

00:33:51.220 1st, 60 days

00:33:52.680 later.

00:33:53.120 I was like, you

00:33:53.860 couldn't wait 60

00:33:55.100 days just to have

00:33:56.260 it for free?

00:33:57.200 So I was like, I

00:33:58.860 had been sworn in

00:33:59.540 office.

00:34:00.360 My term was, you

00:34:01.260 know, ended that

00:34:01.780 time and I

00:34:02.380 obviously wasn't

00:34:03.180 going to get

00:34:03.500 reappointed.

00:34:04.300 Biden had his

00:34:04.940 right to appoint

00:34:05.560 his people.

00:34:06.120 Great.

00:34:06.860 So it turns out

00:34:07.760 that he fired

00:34:08.360 everybody.

00:34:10.140 Myself from the

00:34:10.980 Naval Academy

00:34:11.600 Board, Russ

00:34:12.340 Vogt from the

00:34:13.000 Naval Academy

00:34:13.620 Board, and then a

00:34:14.880 guy named H.R.

00:34:15.840 McMaster for the

00:34:16.840 West Point

00:34:17.340 Board, who, by

00:34:18.280 the way, H.R.

00:34:19.120 McMaster, you

00:34:19.680 remember, was a

00:34:20.160 national security

00:34:20.800 advisor to Trump,

00:34:21.960 three-star Army

00:34:22.840 General, who was a

00:34:23.840 graduate of West

00:34:24.600 Point, a

00:34:25.080 distinguished

00:34:25.420 professor at

00:34:26.160 West Point, and

00:34:27.120 the Friday after

00:34:28.340 that Tuesday

00:34:29.440 email was going to

00:34:30.880 be honored at

00:34:31.520 West Point as a

00:34:32.480 distinguished alumni

00:34:33.600 in their awards

00:34:34.880 ceremony.

00:34:35.680 So anyway, he

00:34:36.920 fires us September

00:34:38.120 1st.

00:34:38.520 I don't resign.

00:34:39.520 I said, I'm not

00:34:40.480 resigning.

00:34:41.100 You can fire me if

00:34:41.960 you want.

00:34:42.360 And then Stephen

00:34:43.560 Miller in America

00:34:44.540 First came to me

00:34:45.480 and said, we have

00:34:46.060 an idea.

00:34:46.980 I said, okay, what's

00:34:47.880 the idea?

00:34:48.220 He goes, we want to

00:34:48.840 sue Biden.

00:34:49.860 Now, Glenn, I'm not

00:34:50.860 a lawyer.

00:34:51.620 And I said, guys, I

00:34:52.720 watch a lot of law

00:34:54.380 and order, but how

00:34:55.700 in God's earth, if we

00:34:56.800 sue the guy in

00:34:57.800 September, I mean, my

00:34:59.560 term ends November

00:35:00.620 1st, we're never

00:35:02.100 going to get back on

00:35:03.080 the board.

00:35:03.840 And they said, no,

00:35:04.700 no, no, let's go

00:35:05.880 to court and make

00:35:06.860 Joe Biden argue

00:35:08.660 that he has the

00:35:10.200 absolute authority to

00:35:11.560 fire anybody.

00:35:12.920 And because we're

00:35:13.860 not going to win

00:35:14.380 the case, they'll

00:35:15.140 they'll rule against

00:35:15.920 us.

00:35:16.360 And I was like, oh,

00:35:17.320 this is brilliant.

00:35:18.700 The only people, but

00:35:20.540 here's the kicker.

00:35:21.340 The only people who

00:35:22.880 were willing to put

00:35:23.660 their name on that

00:35:24.640 lawsuit are myself

00:35:25.740 and Russ vote of

00:35:27.080 all of the other

00:35:27.860 people that were so

00:35:29.160 honored that

00:35:29.900 President Trump had

00:35:31.300 appointed them.

00:35:32.280 And they went to

00:35:33.160 everyone and said,

00:35:33.580 hey, will you sign

00:35:34.260 on to this?

00:35:34.860 And they said, oh,

00:35:35.800 thanks.

00:35:36.140 We're busy.

00:35:37.100 Russ vote.

00:35:37.600 So the case became

00:35:38.400 Spicer et al v.

00:35:39.840 Biden.

00:35:40.180 It goes up to

00:35:41.620 the court.

00:35:42.400 The court says the

00:35:43.220 president has the

00:35:43.920 absolute authority to

00:35:44.920 that.

00:35:45.200 We appeal the

00:35:45.940 decision.

00:35:46.780 It goes to the

00:35:47.620 appeals level.

00:35:48.440 And the court

00:35:49.500 again reaffirms the

00:35:50.980 decision that Joe

00:35:52.020 Biden and the

00:35:52.740 president of the

00:35:53.420 United States have

00:35:54.480 the absolute

00:35:55.060 authority to fire

00:35:56.520 anyone.

00:35:57.000 And the media

00:35:57.700 started calling Glenn

00:35:58.780 and they go, you

00:35:59.380 lost the case.

00:36:00.440 And I said at the

00:36:01.100 time, did I?

00:36:02.500 Donald Trump gets

00:36:07.220 elected and this is

00:36:08.760 where it gets really

00:36:09.500 fun.

00:36:09.880 You'll love this.

00:36:10.600 And now you know

00:36:11.740 the rest of the

00:36:12.920 story.

00:36:13.560 Here it comes.

00:36:14.460 Thank you, Paul

00:36:15.100 Harvey.

00:36:15.860 So, so, so the

00:36:17.020 New York, I write

00:36:17.700 this story in the

00:36:18.780 op-ed for the New

00:36:19.840 York Post saying,

00:36:20.540 hey, guess what?

00:36:21.340 Spicer v.

00:36:22.100 Biden has given

00:36:22.980 President Trump the

00:36:23.860 authority to fire

00:36:24.620 anyone he wants.

00:36:25.860 I hope that

00:36:26.340 President Trump

00:36:26.900 executes it.

00:36:27.960 And the White 0.79

00:36:28.520 House is tweeting,

00:36:29.620 you know, sending me

00:36:30.340 messages back.

00:36:31.220 Guess who we just

00:36:31.700 fired?

00:36:31.960 Guess who we just

00:36:32.500 fired?

00:36:32.840 And I'm living in

00:36:33.540 his glory.

00:36:34.300 Well, I write this

00:36:35.000 piece for the New

00:36:35.680 York Post explaining,

00:36:37.600 hey, here's what we

00:36:38.800 did.

00:36:39.240 Here's the legal

00:36:39.940 basis.

00:36:40.580 All of these people

00:36:41.200 who are about to

00:36:41.720 get fired by Trump

00:36:42.480 should thank President

00:36:44.280 Biden for this.

00:36:45.260 Now, here's where it

00:36:46.200 gets fun.

00:36:47.080 The New York Post in

00:36:48.020 the editing process

00:36:49.220 says to me, okay,

00:36:50.220 well, was it just the

00:36:51.300 service academies?

00:36:52.100 And I said, no, they

00:36:52.760 had the right to fire

00:36:53.500 anyone.

00:36:53.880 And they said, well,

00:36:54.740 give us some

00:36:55.260 examples.

00:36:56.720 And so I've got the

00:36:57.580 list of boards and

00:36:58.460 commissions that the

00:36:59.160 president can appoint to.

00:37:00.700 There's like a

00:37:01.720 couple hundred or two.

00:37:02.560 And I start reading

00:37:03.600 one of the editors.

00:37:04.740 I said, well, they

00:37:05.240 could fire, you know,

00:37:05.920 there's the

00:37:06.220 Battlefield Commission,

00:37:07.320 there's the Truman

00:37:07.940 Scholarship, there's the 0.57

00:37:09.500 Kennedy Center.

00:37:10.320 She goes, oh, put that

00:37:11.560 in the op-ed.

00:37:12.100 Put that.

00:37:12.480 People will identify

00:37:13.360 with that.

00:37:13.980 And then we went and we

00:37:14.760 added a couple other

00:37:15.580 examples to the op-ed.

00:37:16.700 So the op-ed gets published

00:37:19.020 in the New York Post and

00:37:20.180 it gets a lot of

00:37:21.340 coverage, whatever.

00:37:22.780 And President Trump

00:37:23.460 continues to fire people.

00:37:24.860 And when they fire the

00:37:26.500 board of the Kennedy

00:37:27.740 Center, the Washington

00:37:29.340 Post calls, you know,

00:37:30.860 the spokesman for the

00:37:31.840 Kennedy Center and he

00:37:32.600 says, are you going to

00:37:34.640 be opposing President

00:37:35.740 Trump firing you?

00:37:36.940 And on the record, the

00:37:39.140 spokesman for the

00:37:39.860 Kennedy Center says, we

00:37:41.160 can't.

00:37:42.540 Spicer v.

00:37:43.400 Biden sets the

00:37:44.400 precedent for this, gives

00:37:45.440 the president the

00:37:46.120 authority to do this.

00:37:47.500 So now here's the

00:37:48.460 kicker.

00:37:49.020 The Washington Post

00:37:49.920 called me and says,

00:37:51.140 what do you think about

00:37:52.600 what the Kennedy Center

00:37:53.520 is saying?

00:37:54.060 Now, I have a hard

00:37:54.900 enough time keeping up

00:37:55.820 with President Trump.

00:37:56.940 I don't focus on what

00:37:58.620 the Kennedy Center is

00:37:59.660 saying.

00:38:00.100 I'm sorry, that's

00:38:00.800 really not my thing.

00:38:02.120 So I said, I don't

00:38:04.680 know.

00:38:04.900 And they go, are you

00:38:05.540 serious?

00:38:05.920 You don't know that

00:38:06.820 they just cited your

00:38:08.240 case as the reason that

00:38:09.840 they can't oppose or

00:38:11.400 or object to what

00:38:13.540 President Trump just

00:38:14.340 did.

00:38:14.520 And I said, oh, my

00:38:15.400 God, that's amazing.

00:38:16.500 I'm glad to have

00:38:17.120 played a small part.

00:38:18.380 A day later, the

00:38:19.560 reporter calls me back

00:38:20.580 and says, I went and

00:38:22.180 read all of the court

00:38:23.620 documents.

00:38:24.920 And you're right.

00:38:26.160 And I said, of course,

00:38:26.940 what do you mean?

00:38:27.780 Yeah, I wasn't lying to

00:38:29.040 you.

00:38:29.320 And he said, I've got to

00:38:30.380 write this big story.

00:38:31.280 And I said to my team at

00:38:32.340 the time, my family, I

00:38:33.280 was like, oh, my God,

00:38:34.700 this is not going to go

00:38:35.780 well.

00:38:36.100 The Washington Post

00:38:36.880 wants to write a story

00:38:37.980 about Spicer v.

00:38:38.960 Biden and why it's

00:38:40.000 given the president

00:38:40.580 the authority.

00:38:41.060 And then I get a text

00:38:43.160 and it says, hey, we're

00:38:43.840 running, we're putting

00:38:44.620 the story up.

00:38:45.360 And I go, oh, like

00:38:46.900 these don't these things

00:38:47.880 don't end well for

00:38:48.820 people like me and

00:38:49.800 people like you.

00:38:50.720 It's like you don't get

00:38:51.860 that.

00:38:52.080 It's like getting a call

00:38:52.820 from the IRS.

00:38:53.660 Yeah.

00:38:53.840 It doesn't go well.

00:38:54.580 And they go, hey, I'm

00:38:55.520 from the Washington Post

00:38:56.740 and I'm writing a story

00:38:57.780 about Glenn Beck.

00:38:58.860 Yeah.

00:38:59.320 Thank you.

00:39:00.080 Yeah.

00:39:01.060 So I click on the

00:39:03.020 story and I'm reading

00:39:04.040 and I'm like, OK,

00:39:05.480 OK,

00:39:06.780 OK.

00:39:07.740 Like, when's the bad

00:39:09.140 part coming?

00:39:09.760 And the only part

00:39:10.960 is I normally

00:39:11.860 you know, there's

00:39:12.940 that phrase, Glenn,

00:39:13.860 where people say that

00:39:14.760 they they hate

00:39:15.560 watch MSNBC or

00:39:16.920 something.

00:39:17.280 Yeah.

00:39:17.440 Yeah.

00:39:17.680 And I hate I hate

00:39:18.940 read the comments.

00:39:19.980 I had to do it.

00:39:21.020 I had to do it.

00:39:21.860 I normally will not

00:39:23.580 read the comments.

00:39:24.420 I don't read the

00:39:24.900 Twitter replies,

00:39:25.800 whatever.

00:39:26.220 But I read the

00:39:27.040 comments and these

00:39:28.080 snowflakes.

00:39:29.040 They're so offended.

00:39:30.880 They're like Sean

00:39:31.980 Spicer's an evil

00:39:32.980 person pursuing the

00:39:34.280 president.

00:39:34.600 I'm like, wait a

00:39:35.040 second.

00:39:36.020 You have to

00:39:36.860 understand the

00:39:37.360 context.

00:39:38.480 Never in the

00:39:39.480 history of the

00:39:41.180 United States

00:39:42.700 had any president

00:39:44.160 ever removed

00:39:45.880 somebody from a

00:39:46.620 service academy

00:39:47.420 board prior to

00:39:48.960 their term being

00:39:49.720 done for anything

00:39:50.880 less than

00:39:51.380 malfeasance.

00:39:52.040 And even that we

00:39:52.740 can't find an

00:39:53.460 example.

00:39:54.320 Never.

00:39:55.500 Joe Biden was so

00:39:56.760 petty.

00:39:57.540 And the point is

00:39:58.700 they're mad at me.

00:40:00.320 The comments,

00:40:01.180 there's like

00:40:01.500 thousands of

00:40:02.280 comments when you

00:40:02.920 click on the

00:40:03.300 Washington Post

00:40:03.840 story.

00:40:04.080 And I posted

00:40:04.580 it on all my

00:40:05.040 social media

00:40:05.600 stories if

00:40:06.060 someone wants

00:40:06.400 to go read

00:40:06.760 it.

00:40:07.360 And I was

00:40:08.120 like, wait a

00:40:08.500 second.

00:40:08.940 You're mad at

00:40:09.780 me.

00:40:10.820 They're like, I

00:40:11.780 can't believe you

00:40:12.700 did this.

00:40:13.240 And I'm like, wait,

00:40:13.820 wait, wait.

00:40:14.120 I did nothing.

00:40:15.260 I literally had 60

00:40:16.540 days to go.

00:40:17.200 I'm sure I would

00:40:17.700 have gotten some

00:40:18.160 little, you know,

00:40:19.300 medallion from the

00:40:20.300 Naval Academy said

00:40:20.920 thanks for your

00:40:21.460 service.

00:40:21.960 Be on your way.

00:40:23.520 And yet, here they

00:40:25.160 are, like all

00:40:26.720 these snowflakes

00:40:27.580 putting comments in

00:40:28.620 the Washington Post

00:40:29.260 that like, I'm the

00:40:30.180 bad guy.

00:40:31.340 Because why?

00:40:32.220 Because I stood

00:40:33.720 up and said, hey,

00:40:34.840 you want to argue

00:40:35.640 that you have to do

00:40:36.300 this and give a

00:40:37.240 future Republican

00:40:38.260 president.

00:40:38.900 Now, at the time,

00:40:39.680 myself and Russ

00:40:40.300 Vogt had no idea

00:40:41.080 that President Trump

00:40:41.660 hadn't even declared

00:40:42.480 for re-election yet.

00:40:43.820 But we thought to

00:40:44.800 ourselves, hey, you

00:40:45.460 know what?

00:40:45.880 We'll stand up.

00:40:46.740 Now, like I said, I

00:40:47.960 watch a lot of law and

00:40:48.860 order, but that's my

00:40:49.960 legal prowess here.

00:40:51.000 So the idea that

00:40:53.440 this case now, which

00:40:55.200 we thought at the

00:40:56.160 time, hey, let's try

00:40:57.140 it, has now become

00:40:58.820 the basis for which

00:41:00.060 President Trump can

00:41:00.900 run around and say

00:41:01.540 you're fired, legit,

00:41:03.500 is amazing.

00:41:04.940 And I'm just, I'm

00:41:05.620 like, the Post wrote

00:41:07.300 in the story that I

00:41:08.040 was giddy.

00:41:08.800 I think that's an

00:41:09.640 understatement.

00:41:10.360 I am so ecstatic that

00:41:12.500 not just that President

00:41:13.440 Trump can execute on

00:41:14.620 this strategy, and

00:41:15.740 that it was Joe

00:41:16.460 Biden that set the

00:41:17.800 president and gave us

00:41:18.960 this gift is such

00:41:21.360 sweet, poetic justice.

00:41:23.240 You know, whenever

00:41:23.680 anybody tries to force

00:41:25.380 their way, it never

00:41:26.980 ends well.

00:41:28.280 Never ends well.

00:41:29.420 But think about this.

00:41:30.180 They tried to de-platform

00:41:31.440 Trump.

00:41:31.820 They censored him.

00:41:32.580 They took him off the

00:41:33.240 ballot.

00:41:33.700 They sued him civilly

00:41:34.580 and criminally.

00:41:35.360 And it just, it's

00:41:36.120 backfire, backfire,

00:41:37.140 backfire.

00:41:37.780 Learn your lesson,

00:41:39.220 folks.

00:41:40.180 Like, I just, to me,

00:41:41.960 I get such a kick out

00:41:43.200 of this because these

00:41:43.960 dum-dums keep thinking 0.97

00:41:45.560 if we just go after

00:41:46.600 him one more time,

00:41:47.500 it'll work.

00:41:48.020 And it doesn't.

00:41:49.560 So what is the

00:41:50.400 strategy now?

00:41:52.020 Do you think they

00:41:52.580 have?

00:41:53.140 I mean, because none

00:41:54.680 of this is working.

00:41:56.600 I hope that it's

00:41:57.760 continue.

00:41:58.280 I mean, I just love

00:41:59.420 the fact that they

00:42:00.200 keep, they double

00:42:01.320 down on stupid.

00:42:02.500 And they're like,

00:42:03.180 what if we just try

00:42:04.320 it one more time?

00:42:05.820 And I'm like, God

00:42:06.940 bless you.

00:42:07.820 But the idea is just

00:42:08.820 at some point, you

00:42:10.200 know, you take, I

00:42:11.360 was, I was, take

00:42:12.380 the loss and just

00:42:13.360 say, let's regroup,

00:42:15.120 let's retreat.

00:42:15.800 He's not running

00:42:16.420 again.

00:42:17.100 Maybe we stop making

00:42:18.240 it about him and

00:42:19.140 we think about what

00:42:19.880 we're for.

00:42:20.780 I don't tend to give

00:42:21.680 a ton of advice to

00:42:22.520 the Democratic

00:42:22.880 Party, but at some

00:42:24.160 point recognize it

00:42:25.180 for 10 years.

00:42:26.060 You've tried to say

00:42:26.780 that Donald Trump's

00:42:27.680 the problem.

00:42:28.300 We're going to come

00:42:28.760 up against them and

00:42:29.860 it hasn't worked.

00:42:30.840 So maybe, just maybe,

00:42:33.760 you try to rethink

00:42:34.900 this whole strategy.

00:42:36.900 So I, I, look, I

00:42:38.220 don't really care if

00:42:39.320 that's their problem,

00:42:40.200 not my, uh, I, uh,

00:42:41.840 you know, I performed

00:42:43.100 at the Kennedy

00:42:43.720 Center 10, 12, 15

00:42:46.240 years ago.

00:42:47.060 Uh, and it was like,

00:42:48.460 it almost took an

00:42:49.240 act of Congress, uh,

00:42:50.400 to make that happen.

00:42:51.220 I mean, you can, you

00:42:52.400 can rent out the

00:42:53.140 Kennedy Center and do

00:42:54.200 whatever you want on

00:42:54.900 there.

00:42:55.280 Well, they had a

00:42:56.500 problem with me.

00:42:57.340 Uh, and they told

00:42:59.420 me at the time I

00:43:00.480 was the first show

00:43:02.500 ever done at the

00:43:03.720 Kennedy Center that

00:43:05.080 displayed the American

00:43:06.800 flag on stage.

00:43:08.620 I found that

00:43:09.520 incredible, but I

00:43:11.060 don't care what

00:43:11.680 happens at the

00:43:12.320 Kennedy Center.

00:43:13.120 It doesn't matter to

00:43:13.920 me, but the left

00:43:15.380 is freaking out.

00:43:17.220 They're just

00:43:18.020 freaking out.

00:43:19.620 The, the, what I

00:43:20.500 see, here's the

00:43:21.160 thing.

00:43:21.380 There's a bigger arc

00:43:22.680 that I think is

00:43:23.400 taking place in the

00:43:25.440 first term.

00:43:26.360 We were somewhat

00:43:27.000 apologetic.

00:43:28.020 We were like, yeah,

00:43:28.580 you know, that

00:43:29.200 remember, just think

00:43:30.320 about this.

00:43:30.740 And remember the

00:43:31.180 Kennedy Center is

00:43:31.860 just one thing.

00:43:33.020 So president Trump

00:43:33.900 can keep firing

00:43:34.600 everybody.

00:43:35.200 But, but the, the,

00:43:36.500 when in 2017, we

00:43:37.580 came into office,

00:43:38.700 the Kennedy Center

00:43:39.340 honors, right.

00:43:40.300 Which is supposed to

00:43:40.980 be this annual thing

00:43:41.900 where all these

00:43:42.300 leftist awards and

00:43:43.620 they celebrate each

00:43:44.520 other.

00:43:44.860 They said, we won't

00:43:46.100 come if Trump shows

00:43:47.140 up.

00:43:47.400 And so Trump was

00:43:48.140 actually magnanimous

00:43:49.460 and said, you know

00:43:49.940 what?

00:43:50.700 I just, you guys go

00:43:52.180 on, have your event.

00:43:53.240 I won't go.

00:43:54.380 Okay.

00:43:55.020 And, and I think

00:43:55.940 that there was a lot

00:43:56.580 of feeling around

00:43:57.460 and trying to

00:43:57.880 understand the

00:43:58.560 trappings.

00:43:59.180 And, and like I

00:44:00.460 said, I, it was, it

00:44:01.920 was just, it was

00:44:02.660 new.

00:44:03.280 What do we do?

00:44:04.180 How do we approach

00:44:04.880 this?

00:44:05.300 This term, he says,

00:44:06.600 screw it.

00:44:07.440 You're all fired.

00:44:08.820 I'm taking over the

00:44:09.960 board.

00:44:10.400 I'm in charge.

00:44:11.220 I'm putting my people

00:44:11.980 and I love it.

00:44:12.720 This idea that we have

00:44:14.760 learned.

00:44:15.780 And this is what I mean

00:44:16.560 about the arc.

00:44:17.540 It's that, don't be,

00:44:18.920 don't be, you know,

00:44:20.140 don't be afraid.

00:44:21.120 Don't be apologetic.

00:44:22.280 Fight.

00:44:23.060 Go out there.

00:44:24.200 Why are we ceding

00:44:25.200 ground at the Kennedy

00:44:26.060 Center?

00:44:26.820 Why is it that Glenn

00:44:27.760 Beck is the only person

00:44:28.740 that puts an American 0.94

00:44:29.440 flag on it?

00:44:30.160 Why aren't we saying,

00:44:31.020 you know what?

00:44:31.600 Let's bring in more

00:44:32.460 people who do that.

00:44:33.600 Let's be proud.

00:44:34.880 Let's be patriotic.

00:44:36.300 Let's use this

00:44:37.100 institution to celebrate

00:44:38.200 America.

00:44:38.640 But I don't understand

00:44:39.860 like the mentality is

00:44:41.600 so different now.

00:44:42.900 It's let's fight.

00:44:44.860 Let's do this.

00:44:46.240 I think it's,

00:44:46.720 this is,

00:44:47.720 I think it's,

00:44:48.380 I love it.

00:44:48.720 I think it's absolutely

00:44:49.740 fantastic.

00:44:50.460 I thank you for what

00:44:51.520 you did.

00:44:51.940 And you know,

00:44:52.620 the only thing that

00:44:53.200 would make it better

00:44:53.860 is if you or I were

00:44:55.220 on the board of the

00:44:56.000 Kennedy Center and we

00:44:56.880 could announce that

00:44:58.160 Lee Greenwood's

00:44:59.180 residency was now

00:45:00.540 taking place at the

00:45:01.660 Kennedy Center.

00:45:03.860 I think you get

00:45:04.860 like, just so you

00:45:05.540 know, I, now that

00:45:06.420 you've like, that's

00:45:07.180 definitely not going to

00:45:08.320 be the last time

00:45:09.040 that we hear that.

00:45:09.840 You can take credit

00:45:10.540 for it, but I have

00:45:11.840 a feeling Lee would

00:45:13.640 be leading the

00:45:14.540 residency of like

00:45:15.760 several other

00:45:16.600 country artists

00:45:17.380 that come into

00:45:18.140 play there.

00:45:19.840 Thank you so much.

00:45:20.800 I appreciate it.

00:45:21.600 Sean Spicer.

00:45:22.400 You bet, sir.
