Transcript

00:00:00.160 He's amazing. Amazing. He's the guy from Canada. In case you don't know, we had him on today for the podcast. You'll hear him in today's podcast.
00:00:08.220 He is a journalist from Canada that I can't imagine doing journalism up in Canada now.
00:00:15.760 He is constantly under attack from the government. And the things that he's covering are so important.
00:00:24.840 Today, he's covering the pastor, the next pastor thrown into the Canadian gulag.
00:00:32.400 This guy was protesting at a library where they had a drag queen story hour.
00:00:39.360 If our pastors are awake, they should be protesting these things.
00:00:44.500 They should be active. They should be outspoken.
00:00:47.720 But this guy is in jail, and it's not the first time he was in jail.
00:00:52.520 So we'll talk about that.
00:00:55.880 Also, a little bit about what happened at CPAC this last weekend.
00:01:01.600 Oh, Samantha Power just kind of blurted out on CNN that it's a war with...
00:01:06.900 Am I reading that right? I mean, is there any way to take that audio?
00:01:10.600 I think it would be great to hear what people think of that.
00:01:14.020 It's tough to come up with another coherent explanation of what she said,
00:01:17.800 other than she knows we're already at war with Russia.
00:01:20.180 Yeah. We're at war with Russia, but that's why it's so important to have the Ukrainians fighting.
00:01:26.860 Wait, what?
00:01:28.700 All this and so much more on today's podcast. Here it is.
00:01:31.420 The Daily Beast yesterday put a headline out about Michael Knowles and his speech at CPAC.
00:01:54.180 And it said that Michael Knowles wants to get rid of the transgender community.
00:02:04.480 It needs to be eradicated.
00:02:07.420 He's a Daily Wire host, a podcaster.
00:02:10.100 Now, I know Michael Knowles.
00:02:13.700 Michael Knowles is the last one to be like,
00:02:16.640 you know who we should eradicate or liquidate?
00:02:20.080 I haven't heard him talking too much about liquidation.
00:02:23.340 No, it's not really him.
00:02:25.940 That's not what he said.
00:02:27.140 What he said was,
00:02:28.440 there can be no middle way in dealing with transgenderism.
00:02:32.320 It is all or nothing.
00:02:34.420 If the idea of transgenderism is true,
00:02:37.640 and men can become women,
00:02:39.780 then it is true for everyone of all ages.
00:02:42.500 If transgenderism is false,
00:02:45.460 as it is,
00:02:46.500 if men cannot become women,
00:02:49.000 as they cannot,
00:02:50.360 then it is false for everyone to.
00:02:52.520 And if it is false,
00:02:53.600 then we should not indulge it,
00:02:55.540 especially since that indulgent requires taking away the rights and customs of so many people.
00:03:01.200 If it is false,
00:03:02.940 then for the good of society,
00:03:04.400 especially for the poor people who have fallen prey to this confusion,
00:03:07.760 transgenderism must be eradicated from public life entirely.
00:03:13.520 The whole preposterous ideology at every level.
00:03:18.280 So he's talking about the ideology,
00:03:21.540 not the people.
00:03:23.480 Nice spin there.
00:03:24.380 Right.
00:03:24.860 But I think he should sue the Daily Beast for that.
00:03:28.700 But that's the difference.
00:03:31.780 I don't know of anybody who is a constitutional Republican.
00:03:36.080 See, that's what we're for, guys.
00:03:38.700 What do you guys stand for?
00:03:40.080 The Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
00:03:42.400 If you stand for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights,
00:03:46.160 nowhere in there does that give you any power to liquidate people.
00:03:51.280 Okay?
00:03:51.840 It says you have a right,
00:03:55.120 if you want to be transgender,
00:03:57.640 and you find a doctor that wants to do that to you,
00:04:00.480 that's fine.
00:04:01.880 And what am I going to say about it?
00:04:03.920 Okay?
00:04:04.160 You have the right to be who you want to be.
00:04:08.160 You can do it.
00:04:09.580 Have fun.
00:04:10.920 But you don't have the right to force all of us,
00:04:13.840 and especially when it comes to things that are not true.
00:04:18.660 And this is not true.
00:04:21.620 Men cannot have babies.
00:04:24.580 Period.
00:04:25.200 That's it.
00:04:26.520 Well, yes, they can,
00:04:27.920 because they used to be a woman.
00:04:29.280 They're still a woman then.
00:04:30.660 There's some sports team that,
00:04:33.620 I can't remember which one it was.
00:04:34.620 Oh, I know.
00:04:34.640 Did you see this?
00:04:34.980 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:04:35.420 I can't remember who it was.
00:04:36.620 I remember it was one of the Canadian teams that came out
00:04:38.460 for International Women's,
00:04:40.560 or Women's History Month, I guess is now,
00:04:42.480 I don't know.
00:04:42.940 Everybody's got a stupid month.
00:04:44.220 Who cares?
00:04:44.460 I don't know why anyone would want a month about your history.
00:04:46.740 It's stupid from beginning to end.
00:04:48.760 But they released a video.
00:04:50.000 They were like,
00:04:50.460 oh, you know, women are impressive.
00:04:51.980 Moms are great.
00:04:53.180 You know, women are the only people who can have babies.
00:04:55.300 They are the only ones who can be moms.
00:04:57.080 Not even intending to be like,
00:04:58.780 here's a right-wing statement of policy.
00:05:00.920 It was just like a,
00:05:02.320 hey, let's praise women.
00:05:03.600 The truth.
00:05:03.920 It's just the truth.
00:05:05.680 And say something, you know,
00:05:07.680 powerful and unique about a woman
00:05:09.820 who is the only one who can birth a baby.
00:05:12.100 It's incredible, right?
00:05:13.000 And it is.
00:05:13.660 And then they realized
00:05:16.280 they weren't allowed to say that anymore.
00:05:18.160 And they deleted the video
00:05:19.620 and apologized profusely
00:05:21.720 for the utter, unmitigated gall
00:05:26.080 of saying that men could not have children.
00:05:29.720 I mean, it's so pathetic in every way.
00:05:33.300 So here's the thing
00:05:34.840 that I think we all need to remember.
00:05:36.760 We fought the Nazis.
00:05:39.320 And it was important to say
00:05:41.960 we were fighting the Nazis.
00:05:43.660 And not the Germans.
00:05:45.360 Why?
00:05:46.440 Because we were not fighting the Germans.
00:05:48.840 We were fighting the ideology.
00:05:51.900 That's why we didn't kill all the Germans.
00:05:55.040 Okay?
00:05:55.420 There were lots of them.
00:05:57.660 Lots of them.
00:05:58.780 That probably should have been imprisoned
00:06:00.420 and weren't.
00:06:02.180 But we just didn't win the war
00:06:04.180 and they go,
00:06:04.760 oh, you were in the Nazi party?
00:06:06.240 Bang!
00:06:06.620 We were killing the ideology.
00:06:12.080 And if you still wanted to be a Nazi,
00:06:14.680 it wasn't good for you to be hanging out places,
00:06:17.640 you know, near the soldiers.
00:06:19.480 Because they would kill you.
00:06:21.680 Or they'd imprison you.
00:06:23.720 You may notice that we're now allied
00:06:25.520 with both Germany and Japan.
00:06:27.460 Yes.
00:06:28.200 Right?
00:06:28.480 Because we don't believe it's the people.
00:06:32.040 It is the ideology.
00:06:35.000 And this is when they reveal themselves like this,
00:06:38.400 you should pay attention.
00:06:39.860 When they say, you know,
00:06:41.480 oh, we're just going to reduce,
00:06:42.900 you know,
00:06:43.480 our energy dependence.
00:06:46.260 And then they're shut down power plants.
00:06:48.660 I'm going to show you on a special this week.
00:06:51.280 It's going,
00:06:52.480 I'm telling you,
00:06:53.460 you're not going to believe what they've done.
00:06:58.100 You're not going,
00:06:58.960 I mean,
00:06:59.340 and I say that with knowledge of the stuff
00:07:01.460 that I've always said to you,
00:07:02.480 you're not going to believe it.
00:07:03.940 No, no, no.
00:07:04.860 This one goes so far beyond
00:07:07.160 what is
00:07:09.160 reasonable.
00:07:12.420 It's anti-human.
00:07:14.040 It is absolutely anti-human
00:07:15.920 what they're doing.
00:07:16.840 And I'm going to show it to you on Wednesday,
00:07:19.960 what they have put in the
00:07:21.660 Inflation Reduction Act.
00:07:24.820 You know,
00:07:25.360 when you say you're going to reduce
00:07:27.060 and, you know,
00:07:27.680 you don't care,
00:07:28.320 you're going to blow up a pipeline
00:07:29.920 and you don't care that that means
00:07:32.080 that there's going to be an energy shortage
00:07:33.680 and people will die from either heat
00:07:35.760 or cold.
00:07:38.600 You're,
00:07:39.140 you're,
00:07:39.940 you're a monster.
00:07:41.400 You're a monster.
00:07:43.800 It's amazing.
00:07:44.740 You know,
00:07:45.160 there's a clip going around right now
00:07:47.040 on,
00:07:47.520 from Jon Stewart from this weekend.
00:07:49.380 Yeah.
00:07:49.600 It's a big viral clip.
00:07:50.540 You know,
00:07:50.680 Jon Stewart takes on guns
00:07:51.980 and slams
00:07:52.700 pro gun guy
00:07:54.420 or whatever,
00:07:55.120 you know,
00:07:55.480 we're going to debunk it
00:07:56.240 on Studios America tonight
00:07:57.540 on Blaze TV.
00:07:58.820 But one of the sort of
00:08:00.460 side offshoots of this,
00:08:01.700 they get into the drag queen story
00:08:03.060 hour a little bit.
00:08:04.120 And it's so fascinating
00:08:05.640 because the pitch from the left
00:08:07.340 is
00:08:08.160 conservatives
00:08:09.320 hate people who are different.
00:08:11.440 They hate people
00:08:12.060 with alternative lifestyles
00:08:13.360 and look at them.
00:08:14.720 They're trying to ban
00:08:15.840 their ability to speak.
00:08:18.140 And it's like,
00:08:19.280 have you ever heard
00:08:21.500 a conservative,
00:08:22.300 I,
00:08:22.680 and maybe I'm missing some.
00:08:24.380 Have you ever heard
00:08:25.040 a conservative
00:08:25.500 object,
00:08:27.440 protest,
00:08:28.520 try to ban
00:08:29.480 drag queens
00:08:31.960 holding events
00:08:33.160 in nightclubs?
00:08:34.640 No.
00:08:35.520 Holding
00:08:36.120 events that are
00:08:38.040 targeted at adults?
00:08:39.300 No.
00:08:40.420 No.
00:08:41.280 If you wanted to.
00:08:42.360 I mean, I'm sure there are
00:08:42.700 some communities
00:08:43.620 that do that.
00:08:44.680 Sure.
00:08:45.100 There may be some.
00:08:46.660 Though I,
00:08:47.120 you know.
00:08:47.260 That's not a platform.
00:08:48.100 It's certainly not a policy
00:08:49.480 platform by Republicans
00:08:50.600 by any means.
00:08:51.540 No.
00:08:51.900 And I don't even know,
00:08:52.640 like,
00:08:52.980 I don't know that there's
00:08:53.660 any policy
00:08:55.040 even by,
00:08:56.280 like,
00:08:56.380 for example,
00:08:56.740 a church group might say
00:08:57.920 this is wrong
00:08:58.800 and we don't think
00:08:59.340 it's the right thing
00:08:59.860 for you to be doing.
00:09:00.620 And they may protest it,
00:09:01.440 but like,
00:09:01.780 there's not a movement
00:09:03.160 in law or policy
00:09:04.740 to say,
00:09:05.960 hey,
00:09:06.400 we should stop
00:09:07.480 drag queen story hours
00:09:08.960 at nightclubs.
00:09:10.320 Right.
00:09:10.600 It's just for children.
00:09:12.420 That's it.
00:09:12.840 That's it.
00:09:13.400 That's it.
00:09:14.220 Don't do this to children.
00:09:16.400 That's all we're saying.
00:09:18.040 Yeah.
00:09:18.460 Well, let me ask you this.
00:09:19.780 Here,
00:09:20.060 let me show some footage now.
00:09:21.460 We'll have to describe it.
00:09:22.640 I'll let you describe it.
00:09:23.740 Oh, no.
00:09:24.280 This is some footage.
00:09:25.580 This comes out of
00:09:26.600 a drag queen act
00:09:30.380 for babies.
00:09:32.200 Now,
00:09:32.860 you can describe.
00:09:33.800 Can you take that full maybe
00:09:35.740 and get a little bigger?
00:09:36.560 Or maybe smaller.
00:09:37.680 Yeah.
00:09:38.240 You could try to shrink it
00:09:39.180 so we can't see it.
00:09:39.960 There you go.
00:09:40.300 Seems to be someone
00:09:40.980 in a harness of some sort,
00:09:42.800 mostly naked,
00:09:44.580 upside down,
00:09:45.600 and leather,
00:09:46.280 like a dominatrix situation.
00:09:47.960 Yeah,
00:09:48.220 except it's a guy.
00:09:49.260 Well,
00:09:49.560 I'm sorry.
00:09:50.200 It's a woman.
00:09:51.000 He can have babies.
00:09:52.240 I'm sorry.
00:09:52.840 She can have.
00:09:53.700 No.
00:09:53.920 And seems to be
00:09:54.760 pretty naked.
00:09:56.360 Pretty naked
00:09:57.000 and a thong
00:09:57.760 and maybe topless.
00:09:59.140 Yeah.
00:09:59.820 Yeah.
00:10:00.480 It's good,
00:10:01.040 huh?
00:10:01.460 No,
00:10:02.080 it's not good at all.
00:10:03.160 Now,
00:10:03.460 I don't mind
00:10:04.260 if you go to a club
00:10:05.500 and that's what's happening
00:10:06.820 at the club.
00:10:07.700 Okay.
00:10:08.820 Fine.
00:10:09.680 If that's what you want.
00:10:10.540 Right.
00:10:11.180 Good for you.
00:10:11.980 That's probably legal.
00:10:13.380 Say hi to Hunter Biden for me.
00:10:15.000 Yeah.
00:10:15.780 But other than that,
00:10:19.000 no,
00:10:19.420 with schools,
00:10:20.300 babies,
00:10:20.940 children?
00:10:21.380 Yeah.
00:10:21.840 No,
00:10:22.220 I don't think so.
00:10:23.360 How about this one?
00:10:24.560 This is going to be a hard test.
00:10:26.400 School administrator
00:10:27.140 tells teachers
00:10:28.020 to keep students'
00:10:29.260 gender transitions
00:10:30.160 a secret
00:10:30.940 from their parents.
00:10:32.500 You're a teacher.
00:10:34.060 What do you say?
00:10:37.240 No.
00:10:37.880 Okay,
00:10:38.300 good.
00:10:38.520 Well,
00:10:38.660 it took you a while.
00:10:39.720 I was like,
00:10:40.400 the question was so obvious
00:10:41.600 I was perplexed.
00:10:42.420 I thought maybe
00:10:42.820 I was missing something.
00:10:44.160 Yeah,
00:10:44.640 you just say no.
00:10:45.720 No.
00:10:46.080 No.
00:10:46.540 But that's not what's happening.
00:10:48.640 A lot of teachers
00:10:49.160 are just going,
00:10:49.800 okay,
00:10:50.360 I got it.
00:10:51.460 I'm with you.
00:10:53.300 That's just evil.
00:10:54.640 It's just.
00:10:55.520 Incomprehensible.
00:10:56.320 Evil.
00:10:56.640 And like,
00:10:57.040 it's such a bizarre time too
00:10:58.440 where you are,
00:10:59.900 if you're at work
00:11:00.780 and you're at lunch at work
00:11:03.780 and you tell a risqué joke,
00:11:08.360 you are in danger
00:11:10.180 of being me too'd
00:11:11.700 and thrown out of all society.
00:11:13.540 Right,
00:11:13.780 right,
00:11:14.320 yes.
00:11:14.500 For a joke
00:11:15.660 or a comment
00:11:17.240 or whatever.
00:11:18.120 Correct.
00:11:18.760 Yet at the same time,
00:11:19.820 these same people
00:11:20.760 who want to throw you
00:11:21.640 out of society
00:11:22.200 are defending
00:11:23.100 naked men
00:11:24.780 in thongs
00:11:25.600 around babies
00:11:26.540 This is the best
00:11:28.400 of the Glenn Beck program
00:11:29.280 and don't forget,
00:11:30.480 rate us on iTunes.
00:11:33.380 We have Michael Murphy on.
00:11:35.440 He is a Republican
00:11:37.060 Kansas state representative
00:11:39.700 because Kansas
00:11:41.240 has just introduced
00:11:42.820 the toughest
00:11:44.640 anti-ESG bill
00:11:46.600 in the country.
00:11:49.180 And Michael,
00:11:50.280 I can't thank you enough
00:11:51.120 for spearheading this
00:11:52.820 and all of the brave people
00:11:54.180 that are standing with you.
00:11:56.800 Well,
00:11:57.180 Glenn,
00:11:57.380 I can't thank you enough
00:11:58.200 for helping us
00:11:59.540 get the word out.
00:12:00.440 I really appreciate it.
00:12:02.440 So,
00:12:02.760 tell me about it.
00:12:03.580 It is
00:12:04.180 HB 2404
00:12:06.700 and
00:12:08.120 Senate Bill 224.
00:12:09.920 And tell me
00:12:11.420 what they do.
00:12:12.100 What do they cover?
00:12:13.980 Well,
00:12:14.360 they cover four aspects.
00:12:16.560 The first aspect
00:12:17.540 is the proxy voting
00:12:19.160 and or divestment
00:12:20.540 in relation to
00:12:21.360 state monies.
00:12:22.940 Then there's
00:12:23.640 a state contract.
00:12:24.780 Hang on,
00:12:25.020 let me just explain
00:12:26.300 divestment.
00:12:26.860 What this means
00:12:27.500 is when you have
00:12:30.100 a state pension,
00:12:31.780 usually,
00:12:33.240 you're voting,
00:12:34.600 you're voting
00:12:35.600 those shares
00:12:36.420 in these companies.
00:12:37.720 Usually,
00:12:38.220 it just becomes
00:12:38.780 a proxy vote
00:12:39.620 and the investment
00:12:41.300 firm can
00:12:42.340 just assign
00:12:43.980 those votes
00:12:44.640 however they want.
00:12:45.920 This is saying,
00:12:46.700 no,
00:12:46.820 no,
00:12:46.940 no,
00:12:47.280 we keep
00:12:47.940 the voting rights.
00:12:48.840 You can have
00:12:49.480 the money,
00:12:49.920 but you're not
00:12:50.700 voting
00:12:51.180 just on your own.
00:12:53.500 Correct?
00:12:53.920 That's correct.
00:12:54.460 That's correct.
00:12:55.380 And like BlackRock
00:12:57.100 has done with
00:12:57.720 ExxonMobil,
00:12:58.580 they've replaced
00:12:59.220 two board members
00:12:59.980 and I think
00:13:00.340 they're working
00:13:00.640 on a third.
00:13:01.420 Right.
00:13:01.740 So,
00:13:02.200 this is pretty important.
00:13:03.520 Right.
00:13:03.700 So,
00:13:04.180 yeah,
00:13:04.440 there's that
00:13:05.320 and also,
00:13:05.820 not just our
00:13:06.320 retirement,
00:13:07.560 but the other
00:13:08.280 state monies
00:13:09.100 that are taken in,
00:13:09.860 you know,
00:13:10.060 like the monies
00:13:10.820 that are taken in
00:13:11.380 for taxes,
00:13:12.180 et cetera,
00:13:13.300 is invested.
00:13:13.980 It doesn't just
00:13:14.380 sit there.
00:13:15.040 Good.
00:13:15.380 And so,
00:13:15.880 we're going to try
00:13:16.560 to keep control
00:13:17.500 of all that.
00:13:18.240 Okay,
00:13:18.480 good.
00:13:18.740 The second part
00:13:20.160 is in relation
00:13:20.940 to state contracts,
00:13:23.180 sort of like
00:13:23.680 what West Virginia did,
00:13:24.920 pretty much the same
00:13:26.120 as West Virginia.
00:13:27.420 The third part
00:13:28.500 is fair access
00:13:29.280 or a consumer protection.
00:13:31.300 This one is,
00:13:32.260 hang on just a sec,
00:13:32.820 this is really important
00:13:33.900 because what happened
00:13:35.700 to Donald Trump,
00:13:36.840 if it was an accident,
00:13:38.740 it would have been
00:13:39.280 corrected immediately
00:13:40.520 because if you are,
00:13:42.700 if you have your account
00:13:43.540 closed,
00:13:44.020 you're turned down
00:13:44.620 for a loan
00:13:45.140 or whatever,
00:13:46.420 they have to tell you
00:13:48.440 why.
00:13:49.700 If they are,
00:13:50.780 if they are using
00:13:51.540 anything other than
00:13:52.840 finances,
00:13:53.580 they have to tell you
00:13:54.860 what it's based on
00:13:56.420 and why,
00:13:57.160 correct?
00:13:58.180 That's exactly right.
00:13:59.460 And,
00:13:59.980 and honestly,
00:14:00.760 you know,
00:14:00.920 this is,
00:14:01.300 just this portion
00:14:02.560 is what I introduced
00:14:03.200 last year
00:14:03.880 and ran into
00:14:04.780 a buzzsaw
00:14:05.400 and,
00:14:05.840 and the buzzsaw
00:14:07.460 is continuing
00:14:08.060 this year
00:14:08.580 and we'll talk
00:14:08.980 about that here
00:14:09.540 a little bit.
00:14:10.360 Yeah.
00:14:10.660 Anyway,
00:14:11.460 so anyway,
00:14:12.340 yeah,
00:14:12.480 that's,
00:14:12.760 that's a very
00:14:13.180 important part
00:14:13.740 of aspect of it
00:14:14.580 as well as
00:14:15.460 we also have
00:14:16.160 an informed
00:14:16.560 consent section.
00:14:17.640 So if you're
00:14:18.340 investing your,
00:14:19.500 your personal
00:14:20.160 finances
00:14:21.100 and all like that,
00:14:21.660 they have to tell
00:14:22.480 you if you are,
00:14:24.200 if it's going
00:14:25.100 to be invested
00:14:25.600 in an ESG fund.
00:14:27.720 Okay.
00:14:27.740 So how can
00:14:29.380 people help
00:14:30.500 you?
00:14:31.060 What is the
00:14:31.500 situation on the
00:14:32.380 ground to get
00:14:32.900 this through?
00:14:34.100 Well,
00:14:34.520 the situation
00:14:34.980 on the ground
00:14:35.380 right now is
00:14:36.140 once again,
00:14:36.560 I said,
00:14:37.000 you know,
00:14:37.240 we've,
00:14:37.500 we've run
00:14:37.880 into a buzzsaw
00:14:38.560 with the
00:14:39.020 Kansas Bankers
00:14:39.660 Association
00:14:40.280 and the
00:14:40.580 Kansas Chamber
00:14:41.120 of Commerce.
00:14:42.440 Yeah.
00:14:42.700 Look,
00:14:43.220 if you,
00:14:44.220 if you belong
00:14:45.000 to the Chamber
00:14:45.500 of Commerce,
00:14:46.120 get out of
00:14:46.520 the Chamber
00:14:46.860 of Commerce.
00:14:47.860 They are not
00:14:48.940 looking,
00:14:49.920 I'm sorry,
00:14:50.420 this is not,
00:14:51.520 this is absolutely
00:14:52.880 the opinions
00:14:54.120 of Glenn Beck
00:14:54.720 or not necessarily
00:14:55.540 those of Michael
00:14:56.220 Murphy.
00:14:56.520 get out of
00:14:58.660 the Chamber
00:14:59.040 of Commerce.
00:14:59.920 They are not
00:15:00.880 your small
00:15:01.720 business friend
00:15:02.900 and the
00:15:04.760 Bankers Association
00:15:06.000 is in bed
00:15:07.400 with ESG
00:15:08.400 and they are
00:15:09.700 putting everything
00:15:11.220 and,
00:15:12.160 you know,
00:15:12.300 the small
00:15:12.740 local banks,
00:15:13.680 they don't,
00:15:14.940 they are so
00:15:15.520 afraid of the
00:15:16.660 big banks
00:15:17.320 that they won't
00:15:18.360 come out
00:15:19.020 and say,
00:15:19.860 this is really
00:15:21.200 bad for our
00:15:22.220 local banks.
00:15:23.100 They'll say it
00:15:24.020 quietly,
00:15:24.540 but they will
00:15:25.240 never say it
00:15:25.980 publicly.
00:15:26.520 Because they're
00:15:27.240 terrified of
00:15:27.900 what will
00:15:28.140 happen to
00:15:28.540 them.
00:15:29.840 Exactly.
00:15:30.600 And so what's
00:15:31.380 going on is
00:15:31.860 we did everything
00:15:33.120 we could in
00:15:33.980 relation to this.
00:15:35.080 You know,
00:15:35.280 the bill was
00:15:35.740 introduced and
00:15:36.360 we since then
00:15:36.920 have come up
00:15:37.300 with some
00:15:37.740 amendments to
00:15:39.220 make it really
00:15:40.620 to where it
00:15:41.100 doesn't hardly
00:15:41.620 affect anybody
00:15:42.580 in Kansas
00:15:43.140 because this
00:15:43.540 really comes
00:15:44.100 from outside
00:15:44.540 of Kansas
00:15:44.980 anyway.
00:15:45.720 Yeah.
00:15:45.960 And so we
00:15:46.520 were trying
00:15:47.180 to protect,
00:15:48.600 you know,
00:15:49.100 Kansas'
00:15:49.520 rights,
00:15:49.960 business rights,
00:15:51.400 everything like
00:15:51.720 in Kansas
00:15:52.440 from these
00:15:53.000 outside forces.
00:15:54.720 And so when
00:15:56.200 we keep
00:15:56.660 softening it
00:15:57.560 up like that
00:15:58.180 in relation
00:15:58.700 to that,
00:15:59.440 the goalposts
00:16:00.080 keep moving
00:16:00.580 with the
00:16:01.320 bankers in
00:16:01.920 the chamber.
00:16:03.120 And so it
00:16:03.400 kind of tells
00:16:03.880 you,
00:16:04.140 well,
00:16:04.420 okay,
00:16:04.720 who are they
00:16:05.060 really protecting?
00:16:06.120 That's my thing.
00:16:08.200 And so I,
00:16:09.200 it's just sort
00:16:10.140 of,
00:16:10.380 we're going to
00:16:10.920 battle.
00:16:11.960 There's actually
00:16:12.620 another bill
00:16:13.400 that was introduced
00:16:14.180 a couple weeks
00:16:15.120 ago that is
00:16:15.720 just the proxy
00:16:16.640 section.
00:16:18.420 And unfortunately
00:16:19.100 leadership on
00:16:20.900 the House
00:16:21.240 side wanted
00:16:22.740 to go that
00:16:23.700 direction.
00:16:24.260 Of course they
00:16:24.780 do.
00:16:25.460 We pushed
00:16:26.340 back really,
00:16:27.200 really hard.
00:16:27.680 I've got a lot
00:16:28.140 of good support
00:16:28.800 in the House
00:16:29.780 and the Senate.
00:16:31.160 And we are
00:16:32.520 working,
00:16:33.220 and this may
00:16:34.000 end up actually
00:16:34.600 with a third
00:16:35.200 bill,
00:16:35.600 I don't know
00:16:36.180 yet.
00:16:37.100 But there is
00:16:37.640 a lot of
00:16:38.160 negotiations
00:16:38.740 going on in
00:16:39.280 the background
00:16:39.720 and some
00:16:41.080 headbanging,
00:16:41.700 maybe some
00:16:42.100 knees capped,
00:16:43.100 I don't know.
00:16:43.780 Yeah,
00:16:44.120 I wouldn't doubt
00:16:45.100 it.
00:16:45.220 It is,
00:16:45.600 it's thuggery,
00:16:46.920 it's thuggery
00:16:47.580 at this point.
00:16:48.400 It is.
00:16:49.000 I want you,
00:16:50.500 if you are in
00:16:51.360 Kansas,
00:16:52.120 I need you to
00:16:53.240 call your
00:16:54.140 state senator
00:16:55.100 and your
00:16:55.680 state house
00:16:56.480 and tell them
00:16:58.000 that you want
00:16:58.920 HB 2404,
00:17:01.260 House Bill
00:17:01.900 2404,
00:17:03.800 and identical
00:17:05.020 SB Senate
00:17:07.200 Bill 224.
00:17:09.400 These are
00:17:10.120 the most
00:17:11.040 comprehensive
00:17:11.760 anti-ESG
00:17:13.280 bills in
00:17:14.840 the country.
00:17:15.680 Kansas now
00:17:16.620 is leading
00:17:17.400 the way
00:17:18.080 against ESG.
00:17:20.180 If these
00:17:20.880 bills can
00:17:21.500 pass,
00:17:21.960 they will
00:17:23.000 not pass
00:17:24.520 if you
00:17:25.520 don't burn
00:17:26.280 up the phone
00:17:26.880 lines in
00:17:27.720 your state
00:17:28.280 house and
00:17:29.180 talk to them.
00:17:29.700 because I'm
00:17:30.220 telling you,
00:17:31.440 the Kansas
00:17:31.900 Bankers
00:17:32.640 Association
00:17:33.200 and the
00:17:33.960 Chamber of
00:17:34.420 Commerce,
00:17:34.880 and this
00:17:35.160 is in
00:17:35.460 every state,
00:17:37.000 they are
00:17:37.740 putting pressure
00:17:40.080 on and doing
00:17:41.600 dog and pony
00:17:42.400 shows like you
00:17:43.120 would not
00:17:43.920 believe to make
00:17:44.900 sure that ESG
00:17:46.020 stands in your
00:17:46.940 state.
00:17:47.320 So it's
00:17:48.500 only the
00:17:49.240 voice of
00:17:49.700 the people
00:17:50.220 that will
00:17:50.980 get this
00:17:51.880 through.
00:17:54.360 So please
00:17:55.400 call your
00:17:56.440 senator and
00:17:57.240 your House
00:17:57.860 member in
00:17:59.480 your state
00:18:00.440 if you're in
00:18:01.940 Kansas,
00:18:02.500 HB 2404
00:18:03.820 and SB
00:18:04.920 224.
00:18:06.260 We also
00:18:07.040 I would
00:18:07.960 add to
00:18:08.620 call the
00:18:09.720 speaker's
00:18:10.440 office and
00:18:11.000 the Senate
00:18:11.780 president's
00:18:12.240 office as
00:18:12.600 well.
00:18:13.380 Okay.
00:18:15.060 There is
00:18:16.060 it's
00:18:17.780 interesting
00:18:18.520 how we
00:18:19.220 are again
00:18:20.140 finding
00:18:20.880 ourselves
00:18:21.560 with
00:18:22.420 conservatives
00:18:23.040 who say
00:18:23.660 they're
00:18:23.880 conservatives
00:18:24.400 who are
00:18:25.840 trying to
00:18:26.840 sabotage
00:18:27.600 any of
00:18:29.600 this stuff.
00:18:31.180 Exactly.
00:18:32.060 It's a
00:18:32.480 real problem
00:18:33.300 and of
00:18:33.800 course some
00:18:34.100 of this
00:18:34.380 comes from
00:18:34.800 people who
00:18:35.240 don't really
00:18:35.760 fully understand
00:18:36.680 the full
00:18:37.180 scope of
00:18:37.600 what this
00:18:38.060 ESG mess
00:18:39.120 can do.
00:18:41.360 I'll have
00:18:41.940 people come
00:18:42.420 to me and
00:18:42.860 say man I
00:18:43.680 was all on
00:18:44.140 board with
00:18:44.420 your bill but
00:18:44.960 my banker
00:18:46.080 called me the
00:18:46.620 other day and
00:18:47.020 he's scared to
00:18:47.600 death and
00:18:47.980 told me I
00:18:48.420 need it and
00:18:49.040 I said has
00:18:49.400 your banker
00:18:49.820 read the
00:18:50.320 bill?
00:18:51.620 Does your
00:18:52.180 banker know
00:18:52.680 that this
00:18:53.000 bill protects
00:18:54.160 them?
00:18:54.700 It doesn't
00:18:55.180 hurt them.
00:18:56.020 And they're
00:18:57.040 not getting
00:18:57.440 that because
00:18:57.900 they're just
00:18:58.160 getting the
00:18:58.480 lies.
00:18:59.720 So the
00:19:00.520 big thing
00:19:00.920 is like
00:19:01.780 everything else
00:19:02.400 we've got
00:19:03.100 to be
00:19:03.300 educated.
00:19:04.640 Well thank
00:19:05.180 you so much
00:19:05.800 for all of
00:19:06.460 the hard
00:19:06.720 work that
00:19:07.100 you've done
00:19:07.500 on this.
00:19:08.100 When could
00:19:09.180 this come
00:19:09.660 up for a
00:19:10.100 vote if
00:19:10.400 the people
00:19:10.780 are pushing?
00:19:12.220 Well actually
00:19:12.740 tomorrow there's
00:19:13.900 a hearing for
00:19:14.380 224 on the
00:19:15.780 Senate side.
00:19:16.660 I'll be
00:19:16.980 testifying there
00:19:17.820 as well as
00:19:18.380 a number of
00:19:19.120 other people
00:19:19.560 as a proponent
00:19:20.820 of course.
00:19:21.820 And on the
00:19:23.020 House side
00:19:23.600 we're not
00:19:25.280 entirely sure
00:19:26.220 but the
00:19:27.100 Speaker did
00:19:28.900 make it a
00:19:29.380 priority this
00:19:30.040 year to do
00:19:30.400 something about
00:19:30.900 ESG so they're
00:19:31.720 going to have
00:19:32.060 to do
00:19:32.280 something.
00:19:33.180 So we're
00:19:33.500 just pushing
00:19:34.700 for the
00:19:35.180 biggest
00:19:35.760 something there
00:19:36.480 is.
00:19:36.860 Yeah something
00:19:37.380 is not always
00:19:38.380 better than
00:19:39.020 nothing.
00:19:40.360 That's correct.
00:19:41.260 If you just
00:19:42.440 do something
00:19:43.080 and people
00:19:43.820 think that the
00:19:44.300 job's been
00:19:44.840 done you just
00:19:45.360 move on.
00:19:46.220 And that's a
00:19:47.300 dangerous thing.
00:19:48.400 Michael at the
00:19:49.760 end of the day
00:19:50.320 would you reach
00:19:50.940 out to my
00:19:51.420 staff and just
00:19:52.080 tell me how
00:19:52.540 the response
00:19:53.160 was and if
00:19:53.940 there is
00:19:54.440 you know if
00:19:55.640 you need
00:19:56.000 more help
00:19:57.260 please reach
00:19:58.580 out let
00:19:58.920 me know
00:19:59.200 what's
00:19:59.480 happening on
00:19:59.940 the ground
00:20:00.280 there will
00:20:00.620 you?
00:20:01.380 I certainly
00:20:01.880 will and I
00:20:02.320 appreciate
00:20:02.620 everything you've
00:20:03.120 done for us
00:20:03.520 Glenn.
00:20:03.820 You bet.
00:20:04.180 Thank you.
00:20:04.680 The best of
00:20:05.280 the Glenn Beck
00:20:05.780 program.
00:20:08.380 Ezra my good
00:20:09.180 friend.
00:20:09.700 Ezra Levan is
00:20:10.840 the Rebel
00:20:12.400 News founder.
00:20:14.300 He has his
00:20:15.120 own show.
00:20:16.000 He has I
00:20:17.140 just found out
00:20:18.220 they refer to
00:20:18.980 him or did
00:20:19.780 refer to him as
00:20:20.640 the Glenn Beck
00:20:21.420 of Canada.
00:20:22.760 I am so
00:20:23.400 sorry for that.
00:20:24.340 But he is
00:20:27.320 he's I wish
00:20:29.160 you were here.
00:20:29.880 I wish you
00:20:30.480 were here
00:20:30.720 fighting with
00:20:31.520 us or we
00:20:33.380 were up there
00:20:33.860 fighting with
00:20:34.360 you because
00:20:35.300 we're fighting
00:20:35.760 exactly the
00:20:36.620 same battle
00:20:37.200 and it's
00:20:38.100 disturbing what
00:20:39.380 is happening
00:20:40.060 up in Canada
00:20:41.680 because you're
00:20:42.620 going dark in
00:20:43.320 some really bad
00:20:44.260 places.
00:20:45.200 For the longest
00:20:45.580 time Canada
00:20:46.400 was polite
00:20:47.900 friendly cold
00:20:49.240 boring.
00:20:50.180 Yeah.
00:20:50.440 And frankly
00:20:51.120 that suited us.
00:20:52.080 Right.
00:20:52.560 But there's
00:20:53.380 been a real
00:20:53.920 turn for the
00:20:54.940 worst and I
00:20:55.680 think it's
00:20:56.300 partly because
00:20:56.860 of the Prime
00:20:57.300 Minister Justin
00:20:58.040 Trudeau but
00:20:58.660 you can't put
00:20:59.160 it all on
00:20:59.760 him.
00:21:00.200 The rest of
00:21:00.840 the culture
00:21:01.340 has gone woke
00:21:02.360 so extremely
00:21:03.100 and there's
00:21:04.180 been a lot
00:21:04.920 of institutions
00:21:05.640 that have
00:21:06.280 broken.
00:21:07.000 I think a lot
00:21:07.540 of our
00:21:07.760 democratic checks
00:21:08.680 and balances
00:21:09.320 just didn't
00:21:10.520 work.
00:21:11.340 You at least
00:21:11.760 have some.
00:21:12.340 For example
00:21:12.700 your Supreme
00:21:13.300 Court stopped
00:21:14.300 some of the
00:21:14.800 crazier
00:21:15.520 lockdown rules.
00:21:18.280 You have a
00:21:18.820 diversity in the
00:21:19.660 media in this
00:21:20.820 country.
00:21:21.180 Most of them
00:21:21.620 are on the
00:21:22.060 left.
00:21:22.880 But I mean
00:21:23.200 that is so
00:21:24.000 sad that
00:21:24.920 somebody from
00:21:25.500 another country
00:21:26.160 says you've
00:21:26.920 got some
00:21:27.300 diversity.
00:21:28.480 Well I mean
00:21:29.440 you've got
00:21:30.120 your empire
00:21:31.780 you've got
00:21:32.320 Fox News
00:21:32.900 you've got
00:21:33.300 Breitbart
00:21:33.740 you can name
00:21:34.860 them.
00:21:35.300 Yes.
00:21:35.540 In Canada
00:21:36.140 when I say
00:21:37.740 99% of
00:21:39.440 journalists
00:21:40.020 get subsidized
00:21:41.360 by Justin
00:21:41.860 Trudeau
00:21:42.060 I'm not
00:21:42.540 exaggerating
00:21:43.340 there's
00:21:43.860 1500
00:21:44.980 media
00:21:45.940 companies
00:21:46.460 in Canada
00:21:47.120 that take
00:21:48.060 payments from
00:21:48.860 Justin Trudeau
00:21:49.620 about a
00:21:50.280 third
00:21:50.700 of all
00:21:51.760 the
00:21:51.980 income
00:21:52.420 from
00:21:52.740 any
00:21:52.960 given
00:21:53.160 newspaper
00:21:53.600 comes
00:21:54.020 from
00:21:54.320 the
00:21:54.960 federal
00:21:55.220 liberal
00:21:55.480 government.
00:21:55.660 So how
00:21:56.160 can that
00:21:56.680 possibly
00:21:57.240 be good?
00:21:58.280 I mean
00:21:58.460 if you're
00:21:59.420 you don't
00:22:00.000 bite the
00:22:00.560 hand that
00:22:01.080 feeds you.
00:22:01.920 Exactly.
00:22:02.580 I only
00:22:03.640 know of
00:22:04.160 three media
00:22:04.820 companies in
00:22:05.520 Canada
00:22:05.840 that do
00:22:06.220 not take
00:22:06.840 Trudeau's
00:22:07.260 payments
00:22:07.520 and we're
00:22:07.820 one of
00:22:08.140 them.
00:22:08.820 Now he's
00:22:09.540 doing another
00:22:10.060 thing.
00:22:10.420 He has a
00:22:11.300 bill moving
00:22:11.860 through
00:22:12.080 parliament
00:22:12.480 that would
00:22:13.300 commandeer
00:22:14.300 matching funds
00:22:15.640 from the
00:22:16.260 big tech
00:22:16.660 companies
00:22:17.080 Facebook,
00:22:17.680 Google,
00:22:18.000 YouTube,
00:22:18.320 etc.
00:22:19.120 And make
00:22:19.820 them pay
00:22:20.560 newsrooms
00:22:21.340 about a
00:22:22.940 third as
00:22:23.520 well.
00:22:23.780 So you're
00:22:24.080 going to
00:22:24.240 have a
00:22:24.620 situation
00:22:25.100 where
00:22:26.000 every
00:22:27.120 major
00:22:27.680 newspaper
00:22:28.320 in
00:22:28.680 Canada
00:22:29.120 has the
00:22:30.080 majority
00:22:30.920 of its
00:22:31.700 revenue
00:22:32.080 not from
00:22:32.560 subscribers
00:22:33.040 not from
00:22:33.440 advertisers
00:22:33.900 but from
00:22:34.660 big
00:22:34.900 government
00:22:35.200 and big
00:22:35.760 tech.
00:22:36.200 Well you're
00:22:36.880 not going
00:22:37.140 to
00:22:37.260 criticize
00:22:37.620 big
00:22:38.000 government
00:22:38.340 and big
00:22:38.720 tech.
00:22:39.180 Holy cow
00:22:39.640 can you
00:22:40.100 imagine
00:22:40.660 how
00:22:40.880 dangerous
00:22:41.280 that's
00:22:41.600 going to
00:22:41.840 be?
00:22:41.940 There's
00:22:42.020 something
00:22:42.260 worse.
00:22:42.720 Now we
00:22:43.020 would not
00:22:43.680 be eligible
00:22:44.280 for that.
00:22:44.740 You are
00:22:45.020 the
00:22:45.180 Glenn Beck
00:22:45.580 of
00:22:45.740 Canada.
00:22:46.720 No no
00:22:47.120 there's
00:22:47.440 something
00:22:47.780 worse.
00:22:48.760 When I
00:22:49.080 say the
00:22:49.460 word
00:22:49.760 license
00:22:51.000 you need
00:22:51.500 a license
00:22:52.060 to do
00:22:52.460 journalism
00:22:52.860 you're
00:22:53.160 probably
00:22:53.340 saying
00:22:53.540 come on
00:22:53.840 that can't
00:22:54.180 be true.
00:22:55.420 You know
00:22:55.640 in the
00:22:56.560 in the
00:22:57.240 Cold War
00:22:57.680 you needed
00:22:58.120 a license
00:22:58.660 to have
00:22:59.120 a typewriter
00:22:59.940 in Romania.
00:23:01.340 You had
00:23:01.620 to go to
00:23:02.020 get the
00:23:02.320 registry
00:23:02.700 a typewriter
00:23:03.340 they would
00:23:03.980 take a
00:23:04.320 typing
00:23:04.620 sample
00:23:05.020 you know
00:23:05.260 the old
00:23:05.520 typewriters
00:23:05.960 almost like
00:23:06.760 a fingerprint
00:23:07.260 right.
00:23:07.880 So in
00:23:08.140 case there
00:23:09.020 was some
00:23:09.360 Simon's
00:23:09.820 that they
00:23:10.300 could track
00:23:10.760 you needed
00:23:11.420 a license
00:23:11.960 for a
00:23:12.340 typewriter
00:23:12.840 in Canada
00:23:14.280 they have
00:23:14.860 something called
00:23:15.380 a QCJO
00:23:17.160 Qualified
00:23:17.960 Canadian
00:23:18.500 Journalism
00:23:19.160 Organization.
00:23:19.660 You have
00:23:20.420 to apply
00:23:20.900 to our
00:23:21.280 version of
00:23:21.660 the IRS
00:23:22.060 to get
00:23:22.800 this
00:23:23.000 designation.
00:23:24.180 Obviously
00:23:24.740 we were
00:23:25.120 denied.
00:23:26.620 But if
00:23:27.360 you have
00:23:27.660 this
00:23:27.800 QCJO
00:23:28.460 then you
00:23:29.540 get the
00:23:29.920 government
00:23:30.180 money
00:23:30.600 you get
00:23:31.400 access to
00:23:32.100 government
00:23:32.440 press conferences
00:23:33.220 were banned
00:23:33.880 you get
00:23:35.160 you'll get
00:23:35.760 this big
00:23:36.280 tech money
00:23:36.960 too
00:23:37.320 but here's
00:23:38.160 the part
00:23:38.480 that scares me
00:23:38.780 I actually
00:23:39.340 I'm not too
00:23:40.320 perturbed about
00:23:41.000 not getting
00:23:41.460 government
00:23:41.720 money
00:23:41.980 I don't
00:23:43.000 want that.
00:23:43.680 Yeah you
00:23:43.900 should have
00:23:44.300 access to
00:23:45.000 the press
00:23:45.640 conferences
00:23:46.060 but here's
00:23:47.460 what scares
00:23:48.460 me and
00:23:49.060 there is
00:23:49.380 only one
00:23:49.900 thing about
00:23:51.200 this that
00:23:51.620 actually scares
00:23:52.460 me in an
00:23:52.840 existential
00:23:53.220 way.
00:23:54.340 One of the
00:23:54.980 bills that
00:23:55.500 Justin Trudeau
00:23:56.140 was putting
00:23:56.540 through Parliament
00:23:57.180 in Canada
00:23:57.800 and by the
00:23:58.980 way Twitter
00:23:59.600 in a private
00:24:00.340 note said
00:24:00.960 this was
00:24:01.320 the only
00:24:02.240 other place
00:24:02.920 this reminds
00:24:03.600 them of
00:24:03.900 was North
00:24:04.260 Korea.
00:24:04.820 Twitter
00:24:05.140 in the
00:24:05.760 pre-Elon
00:24:06.380 Musk era
00:24:06.940 Twitter said
00:24:08.400 to the
00:24:08.940 government
00:24:09.120 of Canada
00:24:09.500 this is
00:24:09.900 North Korea
00:24:10.420 stuff.
00:24:11.260 That letter
00:24:11.780 was leaked.
00:24:13.320 They have
00:24:14.800 the power
00:24:15.420 in this
00:24:16.020 new bill
00:24:16.580 to tell
00:24:17.740 the tech
00:24:18.220 companies
00:24:18.700 to alter
00:24:19.880 the search
00:24:20.880 algorithm
00:24:21.540 they call
00:24:22.320 it the
00:24:22.600 discoverability
00:24:23.660 to promote
00:24:25.700 the QCJO
00:24:27.260 approved
00:24:28.240 news sources
00:24:29.080 and demote
00:24:30.580 the
00:24:31.520 independence.
00:24:33.480 Soon in
00:24:33.980 Canada they
00:24:34.520 will only
00:24:35.240 be two
00:24:35.860 kinds
00:24:36.400 of
00:24:36.620 media
00:24:37.000 the
00:24:37.800 government
00:24:38.360 media
00:24:38.860 and
00:24:39.720 the
00:24:39.900 banned
00:24:40.460 media.
00:24:41.300 See at
00:24:41.540 least right
00:24:42.000 now we
00:24:42.440 can duke
00:24:43.020 it out
00:24:43.280 on our
00:24:43.620 own.
00:24:44.100 Yeah we're
00:24:44.440 demonetized
00:24:45.120 yeah YouTube
00:24:45.760 already throttles
00:24:46.660 us but we're
00:24:47.360 still alive.
00:24:48.440 If this bill
00:24:49.500 passes the
00:24:51.020 government
00:24:51.840 will order
00:24:53.000 Google YouTube
00:24:53.680 and the other
00:24:54.280 broadcaster social
00:24:55.780 media platforms
00:24:56.780 to hide us.
00:24:58.720 So Justin
00:24:59.240 Trudeau will not
00:25:00.020 need to ban
00:25:01.580 Rebel News.
00:25:02.940 He will just
00:25:03.560 tell Google
00:25:04.600 and YouTube
00:25:05.080 make it so
00:25:06.100 no one can
00:25:06.900 find them.
00:25:08.000 Oh we didn't
00:25:08.480 ban them you
00:25:08.980 just can't
00:25:09.560 find them in
00:25:10.200 the first
00:25:10.740 thousand search
00:25:11.540 results.
00:25:12.020 That's in
00:25:12.540 the bill.
00:25:13.840 You are also
00:25:15.020 still arresting
00:25:16.960 people like
00:25:19.540 pastors.
00:25:21.560 For what
00:25:22.860 now?
00:25:23.440 I mean it was
00:25:24.420 for opening
00:25:25.040 for COVID
00:25:25.880 now what are
00:25:26.820 you arresting
00:25:27.400 them for?
00:25:27.700 You know what
00:25:28.120 your bill of
00:25:29.800 rights our
00:25:30.440 charter of
00:25:31.080 rights we have
00:25:31.520 a section in
00:25:32.100 our charter
00:25:32.500 of rights
00:25:32.760 called
00:25:33.000 fundamental
00:25:33.700 freedoms.
00:25:34.260 They're my
00:25:34.540 favorite.
00:25:35.280 Freedom of
00:25:35.920 thought,
00:25:36.340 belief,
00:25:36.820 religion,
00:25:37.360 freedom of
00:25:37.780 the press.
00:25:38.540 Every one
00:25:39.220 of those is
00:25:39.640 under attack.
00:25:40.320 The core
00:25:40.860 freedoms.
00:25:42.000 We just
00:25:42.640 talked about
00:25:43.100 what you
00:25:43.420 would call
00:25:43.760 first amendment.
00:25:44.600 Well let me
00:25:44.880 tell you another
00:25:45.260 first amendment
00:25:45.820 issue.
00:25:46.820 Three years
00:25:47.380 ago the
00:25:47.820 pandemic
00:25:48.280 starts and
00:25:48.980 there's rules
00:25:50.100 about six
00:25:50.880 feet of
00:25:51.340 separation and
00:25:52.640 no gatherings.
00:25:53.720 There's a
00:25:54.060 Christian pastor
00:25:54.820 in downtown
00:25:55.420 Calgary.
00:25:56.040 It's cold out,
00:25:56.720 it's snowing
00:25:57.260 because it's
00:25:57.600 Canada and
00:25:58.540 he's feeding
00:25:59.360 the homeless
00:26:00.680 on the
00:26:01.400 street and
00:26:03.000 he gets
00:26:03.440 arrested for
00:26:04.260 that and
00:26:04.780 charged for
00:26:05.500 having an
00:26:06.060 illegal gathering.
00:26:07.900 He was
00:26:08.260 actually not
00:26:08.640 the only one.
00:26:09.200 Pastor Arthur
00:26:09.700 Pawlowski was
00:26:10.380 charged with
00:26:10.740 the same
00:26:11.060 thing.
00:26:12.060 Arthur
00:26:12.260 Pawlowski,
00:26:13.120 50 days in
00:26:14.460 jail and
00:26:15.580 Pastor Derek
00:26:17.600 Reimer was
00:26:18.300 charged with
00:26:18.900 the same
00:26:19.380 thing, an
00:26:20.640 illegal gathering.
00:26:21.960 He said it's
00:26:22.440 not a gathering,
00:26:23.360 I'm feeding
00:26:24.060 them.
00:26:24.620 This is not a
00:26:25.200 party, we're not
00:26:25.900 having a get
00:26:26.460 together, I'm
00:26:27.100 feeding the
00:26:28.200 hungry because
00:26:28.780 the city
00:26:29.260 isn't.
00:26:29.880 How long
00:26:30.420 was he in
00:26:32.080 jail for
00:26:32.440 that?
00:26:32.900 Arthur
00:26:33.120 Pawlowski was
00:26:33.800 50 days, I
00:26:34.580 think Derek
00:26:35.140 Reimer avoided
00:26:35.980 jail but he
00:26:36.640 was prosecuted.
00:26:37.400 Now we
00:26:37.680 crowdfunded his
00:26:38.720 legal offense but
00:26:40.620 he's in jail
00:26:41.240 today Glenn,
00:26:42.480 today as we
00:26:43.400 sit here, in
00:26:44.160 fact he has a
00:26:44.920 bail hearing at
00:26:46.000 around 10 a.m.
00:26:46.840 mountain time so
00:26:47.540 that's about an
00:26:48.100 hour from now and
00:26:49.740 here's what he's in
00:26:50.380 jail for.
00:26:50.740 So he was on
00:26:51.220 the radar of the
00:26:52.420 city police, they
00:26:53.120 did not like him
00:26:54.040 for funding.
00:26:54.800 How did you
00:26:55.480 afford that lawyer?
00:26:56.460 How did you
00:26:56.940 fight back?
00:26:57.460 You're supposed
00:26:57.820 to be a poor
00:26:58.400 pastor.
00:26:59.220 We crowdfunded
00:27:00.120 it for him, that's
00:27:00.900 how, they hate him
00:27:01.920 for that.
00:27:03.080 So last week there
00:27:04.800 was a drag queen
00:27:06.180 story hour at a
00:27:07.600 public library in
00:27:08.660 the city and
00:27:09.860 Pastor Derek
00:27:10.600 Reimer went there
00:27:11.480 to object.
00:27:12.320 He objected
00:27:13.000 peacefully, he was
00:27:13.540 noisy, I'll grant
00:27:14.400 you that, but he
00:27:15.580 objected peacefully.
00:27:17.040 Three guys in that
00:27:18.640 story hour picked
00:27:20.060 him up and
00:27:20.800 physically threw
00:27:21.760 him out of the
00:27:22.260 public library.
00:27:23.100 You could see the
00:27:23.860 video of him
00:27:24.340 hitting the floor.
00:27:25.020 They were not
00:27:26.780 charged with
00:27:27.300 assault and
00:27:28.740 actually Pastor
00:27:29.480 Reimer was not
00:27:30.140 charged with
00:27:30.560 anything either.
00:27:32.000 But then the
00:27:32.740 city mayor goes
00:27:33.540 on Twitter and
00:27:34.220 said, I have, and
00:27:35.080 you can see this,
00:27:35.760 she says this,
00:27:36.840 normally you don't
00:27:37.400 say this out loud,
00:27:38.160 she says, I have
00:27:39.360 heard the reasons,
00:27:40.760 in quotes, why the
00:27:42.360 police and prosecutors
00:27:43.300 will not move.
00:27:44.280 I do not accept
00:27:45.220 them.
00:27:45.560 I demand more.
00:27:46.740 We must stop this
00:27:47.700 vitriol and lies.
00:27:49.660 Apparently those
00:27:50.420 are crimes now.
00:27:52.160 And so indeed
00:27:52.760 they go to his
00:27:53.440 house and they
00:27:54.180 arrest him.
00:27:56.000 They said there's
00:27:56.660 no legal ground.
00:27:57.740 Charged with
00:27:57.960 what?
00:27:59.000 Charged with
00:27:59.660 mischief, with
00:28:01.000 disturbing the
00:28:02.020 peace, and I'm
00:28:03.200 told that he is
00:28:04.400 being charged with
00:28:05.060 hate crimes.
00:28:06.060 Like I say, there
00:28:06.720 is a hearing in
00:28:07.880 one hour's time.
00:28:09.540 He spent the
00:28:10.480 weekend in prison.
00:28:13.160 What's so crazy is
00:28:14.420 the mayor who so
00:28:16.080 obviously and
00:28:17.200 brazenly trumped
00:28:18.960 demanded the police
00:28:20.120 arrest him.
00:28:21.320 She says that you
00:28:22.580 should be arrestable
00:28:23.540 for lying, for
00:28:25.500 being vitriolic.
00:28:26.900 Well, those are
00:28:27.220 matters of opinion.
00:28:28.000 Those are not
00:28:28.380 crimes.
00:28:29.420 And for being
00:28:30.100 hateful, I think
00:28:30.960 the mayor's hateful.
00:28:31.820 Those are not
00:28:32.360 crimes.
00:28:33.660 Well, they're new
00:28:34.200 crimes, aren't they?
00:28:34.900 They're thought
00:28:35.300 crimes.
00:28:35.740 And the police
00:28:36.300 resisted, the
00:28:36.980 prosecution resisted,
00:28:38.260 the mayor gave him
00:28:39.040 a tongue-lashing on
00:28:39.840 Twitter, and they
00:28:40.460 put this man in
00:28:41.380 prison.
00:28:42.280 And have you heard
00:28:43.260 of that in the
00:28:43.800 New York Times?
00:28:44.420 I put it to you
00:28:45.040 that if it was a
00:28:46.120 Muslim imam, if it
00:28:48.440 was a Jewish
00:28:48.960 rabbi.
00:28:49.600 Yes.
00:28:50.160 And here's what
00:28:51.100 drives me nuts, Glenn.
00:28:52.020 I'm not Christian
00:28:52.580 myself, I'm a Jew, but
00:28:53.700 I have a sensitivity to
00:28:55.660 religious issues because
00:28:56.560 the Jews have had a
00:28:57.340 troubled past.
00:28:59.020 And so I see these
00:28:59.820 Christians arrested, and
00:29:01.740 I think, where are the
00:29:03.080 big Christian voices?
00:29:04.720 Where's the TV pastors?
00:29:07.180 Where's the conference of
00:29:08.720 the bishops?
00:29:09.860 The silence from the
00:29:11.720 mainstream Christians.
00:29:12.640 In fact, during the
00:29:14.280 lockdowns, when these
00:29:15.620 pastors were in jail for
00:29:16.760 opening their churches,
00:29:18.240 you saw the odd press
00:29:19.580 release from the major
00:29:20.620 churches condemning the
00:29:22.900 pastors for not
00:29:24.040 complying, for not
00:29:25.300 rendering unto Caesar.
00:29:27.400 And I tell you that
00:29:29.260 Canada today is not the
00:29:30.780 Canada you grew up
00:29:31.940 knowing.
00:29:32.300 It's not this friendly
00:29:33.540 place of Anne of Green
00:29:34.640 Gables and maple syrup
00:29:35.840 and a boot the hoose.
00:29:37.240 It's not that.
00:29:38.160 That's all there.
00:29:39.120 But it's got an edge to
00:29:40.880 it.
00:29:41.500 I want to throw one more
00:29:42.560 thing at you.
00:29:43.920 You might remember that
00:29:44.700 almost exactly a year
00:29:45.720 ago, a bunch of
00:29:46.900 Canadians said, we're
00:29:47.660 done with this.
00:29:48.840 They were working class
00:29:50.000 people.
00:29:50.480 They would, Orwell would
00:29:51.480 call them the proles.
00:29:52.960 You know, his book,
00:29:53.700 1984, he said, if
00:29:55.040 there's any hope, it
00:29:55.760 lies with the proles.
00:29:56.900 Working class guys, often
00:29:59.360 new Canadians, minority
00:30:00.580 people, truckers.
00:30:02.100 Everyone loves a
00:30:02.940 trucker.
00:30:03.460 You can trust a
00:30:04.280 trucker.
00:30:05.200 You admire a trucker.
00:30:06.860 They work hard.
00:30:08.600 They do work that we
00:30:09.380 wouldn't want to do.
00:30:10.120 They're lonely.
00:30:11.040 And when the truckers
00:30:11.980 have had it, you know
00:30:12.720 something's wrong.
00:30:13.380 So the truckers have
00:30:14.080 this mighty convoy and
00:30:14.980 they go to Ottawa.
00:30:15.680 No one's organizing it.
00:30:16.920 It's almost spontaneous.
00:30:17.760 They tried to crowd
00:30:18.440 fund it.
00:30:18.780 The money was seized by
00:30:19.580 the government.
00:30:20.160 They go to Ottawa and
00:30:21.200 what do they do?
00:30:21.820 Do they riot?
00:30:23.200 They honk their horns.
00:30:24.440 They honk their horns.
00:30:25.800 Right.
00:30:26.440 And local residents go to
00:30:28.060 court and there's an
00:30:28.960 injunction to stop the
00:30:30.120 horn honking.
00:30:30.660 They stopped the horn
00:30:31.440 honking.
00:30:32.760 They had hot tub parties.
00:30:33.940 They had bouncy castles.
00:30:35.140 I went down there.
00:30:36.020 It was bloody cold.
00:30:37.160 But there was a joy.
00:30:38.160 It was a festival feeling.
00:30:39.660 The people were
00:30:40.060 spontaneously singing the
00:30:41.220 anthem and they were
00:30:42.440 embarrassing Trudeau.
00:30:45.400 And so he deployed for
00:30:47.460 the first time in Canadian
00:30:48.420 history the Emergencies
00:30:49.580 Act, a former martial law
00:30:50.700 that was not even invoked
00:30:51.680 during 9-11.
00:30:53.080 He deployed the riot
00:30:54.260 horses to stomp peaceful
00:30:56.280 protesters.
00:30:57.060 Our reporter, Alexa
00:30:58.240 Lavoie, was shot in the
00:31:00.500 leg by a Trudeau cop with a
00:31:02.820 riot gun for reporting.
00:31:04.940 And we've seen the
00:31:05.720 disclosure.
00:31:06.040 They were suing them.
00:31:06.780 They knew who she was.
00:31:08.320 The only person shot was our
00:31:10.520 reporter.
00:31:11.000 That's not a coincidence.
00:31:11.980 I'm not that stupid.
00:31:13.780 They seized from 200
00:31:16.180 protesters without legal
00:31:18.540 process.
00:31:19.100 They seized bank accounts from
00:31:20.500 families without legal
00:31:21.740 process.
00:31:23.740 They had martial law because
00:31:26.020 Trudeau was embarrassed.
00:31:27.820 But it gets worse.
00:31:30.580 A year later, just a few
00:31:31.880 weeks ago, there was a
00:31:33.120 conclusion of a judicial
00:31:34.680 inquiry.
00:31:35.400 Was this justified?
00:31:37.400 I saw Trudeau stand up and
00:31:39.640 say it was absolutely
00:31:40.520 justified.
00:31:41.740 I mean, I wish I hadn't done
00:31:42.920 that necessarily with the
00:31:44.100 truckers, but it was
00:31:45.720 justified.
00:31:46.300 He was cleared.
00:31:47.700 Trudeau never explains.
00:31:49.080 He never apologizes.
00:31:50.080 He never blinks.
00:31:50.880 And the judge gave him a
00:31:53.280 rubber stamp.
00:31:54.140 Yeah, the judge quarreled a
00:31:55.340 bit.
00:31:55.520 The judge said, well, you got
00:31:56.520 this wrong and you got that
00:31:57.540 wrong, but the judge
00:31:59.020 approved of it.
00:32:02.580 And do you doubt that
00:32:04.520 Justin Trudeau has learned
00:32:06.000 the lesson?
00:32:06.780 Oh, yeah.
00:32:07.460 That he can do whatever he
00:32:08.900 bloody well pleases.
00:32:10.120 The same thing with the
00:32:10.940 United States government.
00:32:12.520 We are not punishing
00:32:14.460 people.
00:32:14.960 Our courts are not
00:32:16.280 standing up.
00:32:17.260 Our Supreme Court, thank
00:32:18.200 God, is.
00:32:18.760 And some of our courts are.
00:32:20.440 But that's only because of
00:32:23.480 Donald Trump.
00:32:24.180 We hadn't had Donald
00:32:25.060 Trump.
00:32:25.380 We would have, we'd be
00:32:27.020 right down where you are.
00:32:28.700 Na, na, na, na.
