Glenn Beck and Mike Lee discuss the fallout from the firings of Brian Lilly and Meghan Markle. They also talk about the latest on Tulsi Gabbard and the stock market boom under President Donald Trump.
00:00:00.000Hey, podcasters, it's Tuesday. Got a great show for you. We, of course, talk a little bit about the special and the impeachment, what you need to know.
00:00:07.500We get ready for our special tomorrow on the impeachment, except it's much deeper.

00:00:47.680Eastern. All right. So we have Mike Lee who is joining us.
00:00:50.440We talked about the Canadian sportscaster, the guy who is a legend in hockey, just fired.
00:00:57.040You won't believe why. And that prompted one of our favorite broadcasters up in Canada, Brian Lilly, to call in.
00:01:04.500He happened to be listening to the show. You don't want to miss you don't want to miss that.
00:01:07.580Plus the Tulsi Gabbard update and the stock market boom under presidents.
00:02:39.840I like this idea because it seems like a sauce.
00:02:42.560Like if you could get like, you know how you go and you build the pasta and they've got like marinara and they've got Alfredo and then they have Charamella sauce.
00:02:50.840It does seem like something you'd have to add.
00:06:24.260This is a story about a coverup of dozens and dozens of underaged girls being assaulted, molested, and all sorts of different horrible things.
00:06:37.160And the, the so-called whistleblower, without any evidence, is taken and fired and thrown out in the street without any explanation.
00:06:50.200And again, think of how remarkable it is the way this goes down, where one competitor calls another competitor in the same industry.
00:06:59.020McDonald's calls Burger King and says, hey, the person you're cooking the hamburgers, I don't think they should be employed there anymore.
00:07:18.320We were talking on the news and why it matters and comparing it to the thin blue line sort of thing from every single movie where police won't talk bad about them.
00:07:28.580And, you know, look, you can make a mistake here.
00:07:31.620It's plausible that, okay, look, because I, is even with the story being the story, if I have someone who's working for me, who's leaking things to opposition media to destroy my company, whether they're right or wrong, I might want to interview them later, but I don't want them working for me.
00:08:11.120No, but isn't he the ombudsman to make sure that the media is fair and balanced and I'm going to check into everything because I'm the big, huge egghead that just – I just know what's true and what's not.
00:08:29.340It's one of these stories that's directly about the way the media is dealing with its own stories.
00:08:35.980This is an internal story that should be fascinating to people inside the media who say, wait a minute, like, these are – this is real – look, James O'Keefe has been around for a while.
00:08:55.560So, Megyn Kelly is back and Megyn Kelly is doing her own thing and she just released something on IGTV, which is Instagram television, and she interviewed this person.
00:09:10.300And I want to play a couple of clips from it.
00:09:29.440And you were in the control room when Amy made those comments?
00:09:32.900I wasn't in the control room, but I was watching the comments while I was at my desk and I had seen what she was saying and I went to my manager and I said, you know, do you see what she's saying?
00:09:44.980Does she know that she's on a hot mic?
00:09:46.700The assistant said to us that Amy knew she was on a mic and that she knew she was being broadcasted to all the affiliates.
00:12:24.020Last week, we had nine innocent people, women and children, American citizens, gunned down in cold blood, murdered, in some cases, burnt to death by narco-terrorists.
00:12:43.320We've got to do something about it by way of identifying who the attackers were, and we've got to make darn sure that they don't have the ability to attack the American people anymore.
00:12:53.940It's bad enough that over the last few years, they've killed 250,000 innocent civilians.
00:13:00.580It's made worse by the fact that they're now moving on to U.S. citizens and doing so in their own backyard.
00:13:06.860So, the press made a big deal out of these people have a violent history, and what do you know about the family, Mike?
00:13:14.480You know, this is not a family with a violent history.
00:13:18.960The individuals that I talk to, these families are not part of a cult.
00:13:27.400These families are not even part of an organized religious order at all.
00:13:35.040Now, they're the descendants of people who came to the region to live in religious freedom back in the mid to late 1800s, and they've maintained their identity both as Mexican citizens and as dual U.S. citizens ever since then.
00:13:50.980But they're a peace-loving people, and they're people who are not extremists in any way.
00:13:56.580They abide by the law, and they haven't caused anyone any trouble.
00:14:02.140I'm not sure what the almost fetishistic fixation the New York Times and other publications seem to have with calling them polygamists, which they are not, or fundamentalists, which I don't think they are either.
00:14:17.760But somehow maybe that makes it easier for them to otherize these victims so as to not make Americans worry about these pesky drug cartels.
00:14:28.520These pesky drug cartels pretty much run the state of Mexico now.
00:14:33.940Yes, in many areas they do, and they seem to be becoming increasingly brazen in their willingness to go after, in this case, both women and children, which the Sinaloa drug cartel apparently historically tried to avoid, and also people who were known to be U.S. citizens, as these people were in the area.
00:14:56.800Everyone knew who they were. They knew they were dual U.S.-Mexican citizens. They knew that these people were women and children, and they killed them anyway.
00:15:06.820That indicates that something more dangerous is afoot than what we've been dealing with in the past, and that we really should be concerned. It's one of the many reasons we need a wall.
00:15:15.380And there's no reason to believe now that Americans are safe in Mexico, because if they're—I mean, it used to be if you held an American passport, nobody's going to screw with you, because the Americans would come down as a bag of bricks on your head and pressure the government to make sure those people paid the price.
00:15:36.100That's not the truth anymore. Mexico is pretty much controlled by these cartels. The president, I don't know, good or ill, but the president is having to kowtow to these people. And what does this mean for Americans on the border? If they can do this right across the border, what's stopping them from doing it on this side?
00:16:01.240It is a scary prospect, and I'm not sure I know what the answer would be.
00:16:11.700Well, Mike, does an answer include making these drug cartels terrorist organizations?
00:16:19.940Absolutely. Absolutely. And I'm doing everything I can to make sure that the administration has the ability it needs to designate them as such.
00:16:28.200If we can do that, then all of a sudden we can figure out how they bank. We can stop their ability to transfer money.
00:16:36.740These are organizations that by some accounts are clearing something like $80 million of profit a day.
00:16:43.140That money's got to go somewhere. It can't just sit under a mattress. They have to be able to have the ability to transfer it.
00:16:50.160We can stop a lot of that if we designate them as international terrorist organizations, and that's what I hope they end up doing.
00:16:57.120Now, meanwhile, AMLO, President Lopez Obrador, has said some things that I hope are just an error in translation.
00:17:07.120I speak both languages. I'm fluent in Spanish.
00:17:10.340He had been saying we need to deal with the drug cartels using hugs, not bullets.
00:17:21.320I don't quite understand why he'd use that expression.
00:17:24.940But then in the wake of these killings last week, he said something along the lines of, you know, the families of these victims just need to forgive the cartels.
00:17:34.740I don't understand what that has to do with the government response.
00:17:40.300Obviously, among any Christian believers, forgiveness is an essential thing, but that is not the government's role.
00:17:48.120The government's role is to see to it that people don't kill each other.
00:17:51.760And I hope, for their own sake and for ours, that the Mexican government will get its A game on and decide that, you know, yeah, hugs are great.
00:18:03.720Sometimes they don't work for people who have bullets.
00:18:06.520Sometimes the only response to somebody who's got bullets and abusing them to kill women and children is more bullets.
00:18:59.200And even if we were not required to, by our own rules, which we are, there would still be a need for us to be able to tell the story, to tell the whole truth, and not just the spin that they're getting in the House of Representatives.
00:19:16.540Well, there's no way for the president to even defend himself.
00:19:20.480You can't call anybody that has anything to do with Chalupa.
00:19:28.660You can't call anybody that wants to talk about the marriage between the state and Soros.
00:19:33.600You can't talk about the meddling in the election that we know happened because two people were sentenced to prison for it, for interfering in the U.S. election.
00:19:46.000And they bragged on tape about how they were helping Hillary and the DNC.
00:19:51.140You can't talk about any of those things.
00:20:01.220You can't tell any part of this story that hasn't been blessed and sanctioned by Adam Schiff and by Nancy Pelosi.
00:20:12.300And that's disgraceful, especially when you ask the question, Cui Bono, who benefits?
00:20:18.680Who benefits from this impeachment trial?
00:20:20.380Who benefits from an impeachment proceeding in the House where only one side gets to be heard?
00:20:27.200Well, honestly, this this really goes to this whole thing is, you know, the way that the left is behaving now, they are they are acting like an out of control religion.
00:20:39.220You are silenced. If you if you disagree, you're a heretic and destroyed.
00:20:44.920And this is the Grand Inquisition. I mean, you know, Pelosi is is, I guess, or Schiff is Takamata.
00:20:52.380He creates all of the rules and, you know, the outcome before the trial is even started.
00:21:02.500Or telephone justice, as they used to describe it in the Soviet era.
00:21:06.240When a criminal trial was going on, if it was a difficult case, the judge would receive a telephone call and whatever distant reaches of the USSR, somebody from Moscow would tell them what the outcome was.
00:21:16.760But the fact is they've been trying to get President Trump since before he was even inaugurated.
00:21:23.880And the only reason Nancy, who deep down knows this is wrong, the only reason she's doing this is because she can't control the squad.
00:21:32.400She can't control her own party. And so she feels like she has to do it.
00:21:37.440And things like this have consequences. Those consequences are dire.
00:21:41.200And we have to ask the question, well, what becomes of this?
00:21:44.860If you do this, where does it lead? And is that really responsible for the American people, especially for a president who didn't do anything wrong?
00:21:53.460But if this is what it's going to take for us to tell the rest of the story and to show how so many people in the Democratic establishment have abused the levers of government power, so be it.
00:22:05.200But President Trump is going to emerge from this process stronger.
00:22:08.460So, Mike, tomorrow night I am doing another broadcast.
00:23:05.660Whatever response I got was somewhat inadequate to what I was seeking.
00:23:12.880I started seeing some disturbing trends.
00:23:15.900I've got some friends in Macedonia and they were pointing out to me that Macedonia was a friend to the United States.
00:23:22.040Macedonia, at one point in the very recent past, had a government that was friendly to the United States that was by and large conservative, especially by European standards.
00:23:34.220And they started seeing some trends that were very disturbing in terms of leveraging Soros money with U.S. foreign aid money in a way that was fundamentally anti-democratic and pro-leftist.
00:23:49.600And I think that's one of the things that we need to uncover in all this is what the heck are we doing with all this money?
00:23:55.180I'm not one who says that there is never a good reason for the U.S. to provide aid to a third party.
00:24:00.340But unless we have a definite reason, and that reason is an open and transparent one, these will always end up being used to promote progressive causes worldwide and to undermine our own interests and values.
00:24:15.840Mike, you will have your answer tomorrow and everything.
00:24:21.760We left a lot of stuff on the edit floor because I just I only want stuff we can absolutely nail down and show the evidence.
00:24:30.720It's happening all over the world and you're not going to like the answer, but you're going to finally receive an answer on what was going on.
00:28:03.460Oh, Nellie was the one who was the one who brought information about collusion from Fusion GPS and the dossier to her husband in Pillow Talk.
00:28:16.780And he brought that to the Justice Department.
00:29:35.060Which sham investigations are you talking about?
00:29:37.560We're not going to take place the same sham investigations into the Bidens or 2016 that the president pressed Ukraine to conduct for his own personal political benefit.
00:29:49.400So why wouldn't you want them looking into 2016?
00:29:52.580Why wouldn't you like them looking into Chalupa?
00:29:54.800Why wouldn't you like them looking into the DNC, the State Department, the whistleblower?
00:29:59.480Right, because if your case is, as they just stated as fact there, he did this for his own personal political benefit, you need to prove that.
00:30:08.100The only way you can prove that is to show that he was a conspiracy theorist, there's nothing going on there, but they don't want to have any of the people involved ask any questions about it.
00:30:40.720Donald Trump can be thrown out of office in a year by just voting for him and using the actually, you know, the normal process and the normal way of doing these things.
00:30:49.120They don't want that to happen because they don't trust the people.
00:30:51.760They think they might get it wrong again.
00:30:54.160I have to tell you, I would love to have an actual trial.
00:30:58.180I'd love to have really good attorneys take the information that we have.
00:31:03.420That's all from FOIA acts, you know, the Freedom of Information Act.
00:31:09.560We have it from released documents from the State Department, FOIA documents from the State Department, from from the administration, from the former administration.
00:32:30.080It's this week for him to just go through and comb all the facts.
00:32:33.480Today is his day just to go through all the facts on this special to make sure that we have everything buttoned up one last time.
00:32:39.840And he's like, but we do have, Stu, we have a memo from George Soros himself, not an organization, him, to the State Department laying this all out.
00:33:30.360And this goes against everything that I think even Democrats believe.
00:33:35.920I really do believe that when Democrats hear this, if they have an open mind, if you're looking, if you're looking to excuse Donald Trump or convict Donald Trump, this is not the place for you.
00:33:50.720If you're looking for truth, if you're looking for what really happened and you're looking to see who is who are the United States representatives, what are they actually doing?
00:34:24.140You're not going to like it, but you have to know it.
00:34:28.280And that's why I said to Mike Lee last hour, we had him on.
00:34:33.820We were talking about the impeachment.
00:34:34.800And I said, this all has to come out and you can do it in the Senate because you won't get any of this information in the House because they've locked it all down.
00:34:43.980They've specifically cordoned off everything that is on the chalkboard.
00:34:48.180I mean, that's, that's, that's quite, that is quite the testimony.
00:34:53.600If you have people that are crazy and are making crazy conspiracy theories, just crazy, making them up, and there's no way to prove them, I welcome that in my courtroom.
00:35:08.180Right, because you could show them to be a whack job.
00:35:27.680That's why they must deem this a conspiracy theory and give it no light of day.
00:35:33.000Because once you have any of this in the light of day, you see not only what's happening in Ukraine, but you see what's happening today in South America, today in the United States of America, yesterday in San Francisco.
00:35:51.480Oh, you'll, you will see what's being done to us and what's being done to the whole world using your tax dollars.
00:35:59.580And, you know, we've been talking a lot, and I think there's an argument on the right, about what the best process is for the Senate when they do inevitably impeach Trump in the House because it's just under Democrat control.
00:36:21.300And I think, like, this is a good example of why you probably do want to go ahead with the trial.
00:36:28.340You know, people keep comparing the House side of this to the grand jury, where the rules are basically set up so that the Democrats, the prosecution, can just present evidence without it being refuted.
00:38:04.680John Bolton, who I'm pretty sure is probably all in on this kind of stuff that's going on, he said, Rudy Giuliani, I mean, he's a hand grenade.
00:38:21.900That's why people don't like Donald Trump, because he is blowing things up, but he might be rolling into a room trying to blow something up.
00:38:32.460And what he doesn't know is that hand grenade just blew this wall down.
00:38:38.200And it's not really what you were after, but that's bigger than what you were after.
00:38:43.880And that hand grenade just exploded and just exposed all of this.
00:40:17.100You know, Glenn, I'm doing well other than I'm listening to you and Stu this morning because I'm on vacation trying to escape Canadian politics.
00:40:44.400You guys just elected a guy who has been photographed multiple times as an adult in blackface.
00:40:53.000He was actually asked during the election because he wouldn't say how many times he'd worn it after the first night he was caught.
00:40:58.480The first night he's caught, he comes out and, you know, he's on his campaign plane and he does one of those things with all the reporters around him on the plane.
00:41:05.340And have you done this any other times?
00:41:40.180But beyond that, Justin Trudeau is a man who in Quebec, where the French part of Canada that he represents, they have a certain amount of say over their immigration.
00:41:51.400And they're doing things that if any other part of the country did, they'd call it racist.
00:41:56.100They want to impose a values test to become an immigrant to Quebec.
00:42:00.180So do you believe in the following things?
00:42:02.320And some people will say, this is good, this is bad.
00:42:04.640But when a conservative politician advocated for that a few years ago for the whole country, Justin Trudeau called it racist, bigoted, anti-immigrant.
00:42:12.960Quebec is, you know, the province, again, that he represents, is lowering their immigration rate.
00:42:19.020They are reducing it because immigrants steal jobs.
00:42:22.480Any other part of the country did that.
00:42:23.960He'd call it racist and bigoted and anti-immigrant.
00:42:27.000So a guy who is actually backing policies that the liberal left calls racist, anti-immigrant was just reelected.
00:42:34.680But we got to fire Don Cherry for saying, you come here, honor our fallen.
00:43:33.700He played in the NHL for a cup of coffee.
00:43:35.560But he carved out this niche as being the Canadian everyman who watches the game, talks about what he likes, what he doesn't like, and, yeah, occasionally goes off on these things.
00:43:47.800But his support for the troops has been huge.
00:43:50.340The left has been trying to get rid of this guy for years.
00:43:53.620And so, you know, I tweeted out a couple of things on this.
00:43:56.460As I say, I'm trying to stay away from politics, but I'm on the Twitter machine on the weekend and I see all the outrage over this.
00:44:04.620And I say, OK, so let me get this straight.
00:44:06.100The country just elected a man who wore blackface more times than he can say, who backs a values test for immigrants, but only to Quebec, back dropping Quebec's immigration bill and was weak on Bill 21.
00:44:16.720Oh, by the way, yeah, there's this bill in Quebec that Justin Trudeau won't fight that says if you wear a turban, a kippah, a hijab, any outward religious symbol, you can't be a schoolteacher or a cop or a civil servant.
00:44:54.580By the time I was born, a couple of years after he gets to the country, he's upset that my mother's going into labor in the middle of a football game.
00:45:19.940But, I mean, he's talking about Toronto.
00:45:21.860In fairness, I think he's talking about immigrants.
00:45:25.260And there are a lot of immigrants, new Canadians, as people like to call them, that do wear the poppy.
00:45:30.940Look, I think most people come to this country because they like the freedom.
00:45:34.900And I know you keep saying we don't have the First Amendment.
00:45:37.420We do actually have the Charter of Rights, which says you've got freedom of thought, belief, opinion, and expression, including freedom of the press.
00:45:51.920It stopped, you know, just like the First Amendment.
00:45:54.000I can have the First Amendment in the United States.
00:45:56.160But if I annoy my employer like that time you were going to hire me, Glenn, and then you found out I said something bad about Texas, you know, that that can do you under it in Rogers is like a Comcast, as you were saying, Stu.
00:46:10.720And it is this huge company that just doesn't want the headache.
00:46:14.620Now, unfortunately for them, there's a boycott Sportsnet movement going on now.
00:46:19.900And people are calling up and they're saying, all right, I'm going to cancel my Sportsnet subscription.
00:46:26.040If you know anything about the remaining people that have not cut the cord, the most profitable angle of cable is sports.
00:46:34.760And on top of that, so they're a cable company, they're a broadcaster, they're also a cell phone company.
00:46:42.680People are canceling their Rogers subscriptions across the board.
00:46:53.240But my guess is that there's going to be more outrage from people that are actually upset over this than the social justice warriors that never watched Don to begin with.
