00:00:00.000
I have been in the desert for the last, what, 10 days, and it is hot here.
00:00:07.400
The one thing that is really nice is to have sweat block on your side.
00:00:12.240
When you have sweat block, you don't have sweat tacos, which Stu had never heard of.
00:00:17.120
Apparently, he's never been around sweaty people.
00:00:27.240
You put meat there, and then the sweat tacos hold it together.
00:00:30.760
It's a nice visual that you've brought into my life, and I want to thank you for that.
00:00:35.920
Well, get sweat block, and you won't have any of those problems.
00:00:39.280
And you can put on the wipes, and you wipe under each arm, like, really, once a week, and you're done.
00:01:37.520
What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:53.940
The Biden administration's been having a real tough time in the courts.
00:01:59.160
Now, a lower court has said that the White House is not allowed to communicate with social media companies.
00:02:08.640
Looks like they're getting more than a slap on the wrist.
00:02:12.800
But that's pretty incredible in a defense of the First Amendment.
00:02:18.340
I thought we would go over the Constitution and the amendments and the Declaration of Independence.
00:02:24.980
Seeing that we never, ever seem to read it, I thought it might be a good time to go over it.
00:02:34.540
First, if you had a great 4th of July, I hope you did.
00:02:38.460
One of the ways I like to celebrate freedom is by throwing, you know, really good meat on the grill.
00:02:55.640
Anyway, if you just couldn't, if you don't have a tight enough grill for all the crickets and maggots
00:03:02.640
and whatever else they want you to eat, you can try steaks and beef and chicken and pork
00:03:11.340
and some of the best fish you can get all from Good Ranchers.
00:03:16.660
They source all of their high-quality beef and chicken from local farms and ranchers.
00:03:21.280
Every box that is ordered, Good Ranchers donates 10 meals to Americans in need.

00:03:59.460
So we wrapped up yesterday, I think, what, 10 days here in St. George.
00:04:12.640
So many people were deeply, deeply moved and broke down at different places all the way through.
00:04:23.140
Broke down, some of them broke down with the Pilgrims, others with the Declaration of Independence and the first draft.
00:04:31.640
Others were deeply moved by the black heroes in America for the American Revolution.
00:04:52.820
We stopped yesterday afternoon, I think, at 3 o'clock, and then immediately began breaking down.
00:05:09.820
In case you lost track of time, it's Wednesday today.
00:05:15.760
So, we're moving it, and the trucks are going to be on the road today.
00:05:23.180
And we're going to be up in Idaho, and everything is sold out.
00:05:30.460
But anyway, I thought today is a great day to go through some of our documents.
00:05:38.440
Because people stood at the Declaration of Independence for quite some time and read the whole thing.
00:05:48.000
You know, how many times have you read, come on, be honest, the Constitution?
00:06:01.600
Because the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, it is the reason we're having all of the problems that we have today.
00:06:12.500
And how can you protect your rights if you don't know what they are?
00:06:20.260
You know, all of these rights that are talked about come from the pulpits.
00:06:26.600
The pulpits in the 1750s, 60s, and 70s were on fire.
00:06:32.480
And they were talking about, you know, kings being tyrants.
00:06:40.640
And so, when Thomas Paine wrote Common Sense, these things were common sense.
00:06:46.600
And I never, you know, I always thought, yeah, freedom is common sense.
00:06:50.720
When I was, you know, younger and a kid, I thought, common sense.
00:06:55.460
You could go to China and go to the rice paddy and say, shouldn't you be free?
00:07:00.180
And they would say, of course, it's common sense.
00:07:06.960
You have to be, you have to see that there is opportunity that comes way before the government.
00:07:16.740
All of these rights that you have as an individual.
00:07:20.880
So, it was common sense in America because they were preached in all of the pulpits, all of these things.
00:07:28.320
It's where we get a lot of our lines from our Declaration of Independence.
00:07:32.880
And so, Thomas Paine pushes us into the revolutionary era.
00:07:42.960
It's his pamphlet or his book called Common Sense that I think about 70% of the country had read and had a copy of,
00:07:53.820
which is, I think it was a third of the households had a copy of it and 70, 75% read it.
00:08:03.900
Can you think of anything that 75% of this population has read?
00:08:13.000
So, they read it and they realize, yeah, we should be free.
00:08:28.340
So, I want to go through some of this with you and let me see if I can get it.
00:08:36.600
So, the summer of 76, there are five guys that are chosen and there is this vote that goes on.
00:08:47.040
And John Hancock, the guy with the big signature at the bottom, he said he signed his name that large
00:08:52.420
because he wanted to be able to have King George read his name without his glasses on.
00:08:58.380
That's a pretty bold statement because it was a death sentence and he knew it.
00:09:05.700
And so, before they selected the people to write the declaration, they all had to vote on,
00:09:14.040
And everybody voted and it had to be unanimous.
00:09:21.820
You had to be dedicated to it because, as he said, this is a death sentence.
00:09:32.900
We will lose maybe even our family and our family's lives.
00:09:40.380
And so, everybody raise a hand if you want to commit treason with me.
00:09:48.280
Then he said, I think every word of this should be voted on because if there is one colony that is not in step,
00:09:58.960
if we don't all agree on every word, then the king, he's got his people everywhere and spies everywhere.
00:10:14.420
And his people will worm their way in and break us apart.
00:10:22.820
Do you think it all should be read and voted on separately, line by line or paragraph by paragraph, and be unanimous?
00:10:41.280
And John Adams was actually selected to write it.
00:10:54.620
He had never done anything with drugs or hookers.
00:10:59.060
So, he was not like Jeffy, but he was absolutely unlikable.
00:11:05.860
And I think that's like Jeffy, don't you think, Stu?
00:11:15.960
When you argue with us on that, you are arguing against science.
00:11:26.120
Nobody will vote for anything that I write because I'm unlikable.
00:11:30.580
And Benjamin Franklin said, you see that kid over there with the red hair?
00:11:45.440
So, they approach him and ask him if he would write the Declaration of Independence.
00:11:54.640
We have the first draft of the Declaration of Independence in our museum.
00:12:08.000
There would be a line through a sentence and then something written over that line.
00:12:12.980
And then off into the column, it will say, B. Franklin and the date.
00:12:35.960

So Thomas Jefferson writes in Congress, July 4th, 1776.
00:14:14.100
The unanimous declaration of the 13 United States of America.
00:14:23.120
I'll explain again when we get to a part that was voted out.
00:14:28.480
The unanimous declaration of the 13 United States of America.
00:14:32.040
When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political
00:14:38.400
bands which have connected them with one another and to assume among the powers of the earth,
00:14:44.300
the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and nature's God entitle them.
00:14:53.520
A decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare their causes
00:15:02.040
So in the first paragraph, here's Thomas Jefferson saying, look, we're trying to be decent people
00:15:09.900
Now, our declaration is completely different than most declarations of war or of separation
00:15:18.760
because most of them, I mean, think of Black Lives Matter.
00:15:33.960
And it doesn't really tell you anything that is uplifting and inspiring.
00:15:40.300
So the first paragraph says, look, we're trying to be decent people.
00:15:44.860
And we feel it's only common decency to tell you why we're breaking up.
00:15:54.900
And this is why the Declaration of Independence is so different.
00:16:06.280
And we've tried to talk to you about this a million times.
00:16:11.640
We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal and they're endowed
00:16:20.760
by their creator with certain unalienable rights that among these are life, liberty, and the
00:16:31.760
Let me just tell you what it said in the original draft.
00:16:35.400
And I think it might have been Ben Franklin that changed this.
00:16:40.160
It said, we hold these truths instead of self-evident.
00:16:44.240
We hold these truths to be sacred and undeniable.
00:16:49.000
That's different, better, I think, than self-evident, sacred and undeniable.
00:17:01.260
That shows that the king who says, God appoints me, no, we actually find that in sacred scripture
00:17:16.240
We are all created equal and we have certain rights and that to secure these rights, governments
00:17:25.800
are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.
00:17:33.680
So governments are instituted among men and they derive anything that is just from the
00:17:45.560
He's appointed by God and he'll tell you what's just.
00:17:50.040
The just powers come from the people, the consent of the governed.
00:17:55.520
And that whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, what are those ends?
00:18:07.520
That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of
00:18:19.260
Why did they say that the South couldn't break away from the United States?
00:18:29.040
That it's the right of the people to alter or abolish it.
00:18:35.760
When any form of government becomes destructive of these ends.
00:18:41.320
So if it was reversed and the federal government was saying, no, blacks don't have any rights and
00:18:48.420
we're going to push slavery in other continents and other areas all around the world, which
00:18:54.940
the South did, then the South could have broken away and it would have been right and just and
00:19:03.100
according to our Constitution, because the government has been become hostile to those rights that it's
00:19:12.820
supposed to protect and it is no longer doing anything just so when you are when you have just and you have
00:19:23.020
another government that is going to go to protect the rights better than the last one, then you can do it.
00:19:33.540
That's at least the way I read it, that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is
00:19:39.100
the right of the people to alter or abolish it, comma, not a period, and institute new government laying its
00:19:48.200
foundation on such principles and organizing its power in such a form as to them shall seem most likely to
00:20:02.420
You can't just say, we're going to do, you know, communism.
00:20:09.100
You have to take into consideration the people's rights and form a new government that is more likely to
00:20:22.460
Then it goes into prudence indeed, and this is today.
00:20:27.160
Prudence indeed will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient
00:20:36.160
And, accordingly, all experience has shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer while the evils are sufferable
00:20:48.440
than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
00:20:55.260
And this is why progressivism, this is the part that progressivism takes.
00:21:02.500
They take the role of taking it one little step at a time so you're not shocked by, well, like you are now with the Biden administration,
00:21:15.360
when they just start taking things and you're like, wait, wait, what?
00:21:28.060
It starts out in cold water and slowly warms up.
00:21:32.700
Don't have any idea if that's true or not, but that's the idea.
00:21:36.400
And we are much more likely to say, you know, it's fine, it's fine, instead of just flushing down everything we know.
00:21:49.340
But when a long train of abuses and usurptations pursuing invariably the same object
00:21:57.000
invinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, listen to that,
00:22:03.720
when a long train of abuses, when things keep happening over and over again,
00:22:08.820
and they all seem to be going in the same direction, which convinces you this is a design,
00:22:15.880
that they're doing this intentionally to rule over us and be despots or tyrants.
00:22:40.640
Good real estate agent has a ton of responsibility when it comes to helping you buy or sell a home.
00:22:46.280
They act as kind of a firewall between safety and you,
00:22:51.700
sometimes the terrifying amount of work that goes into a whole real estate process.
00:22:56.480
So, they play a huge role in guiding you through all the things that you're not an expert in.
00:23:10.100
Because it's a smooth transaction and you kind of feel, in the end, like you've made a friend.
00:23:17.280
This is why I started Real Estate Agents I Trust.
00:23:20.280
We work with the best real estate agents all over the country and in your area.
00:23:25.620
And if we haven't found one yet in your area, we won't recommend one.
00:23:29.840
The people who decide to make this their full-time occupation, throw themselves in it all the way.
00:23:35.860
Those are the people that you want to work with.

We're going over our founding documents today because 4th of July, it's about hot dogs and, well, what used to be Bud Light and fireworks.
00:24:24.400
I think maybe we should pay attention to our independence and what came of those things.
00:24:29.200
Because our forgetting of these documents and what they actually say, that's the cause of all of our problems.
00:24:39.580
And I was going through the beginning of the Declaration of Independence.
00:24:45.040
And we just got to the place when a long train of abuses and usurptations pursuing invariably the same object convinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism.
00:24:56.200
In other words, when you start seeing, and tell me if this doesn't sound familiar, when you start seeing the government and the administration, or in their case, the king, doing things where you're abusing things and everything just kind of happens to fall in favor of the king or out of favor of the people.
00:25:26.020
And you're like, okay, this can't be a coincidence.
00:25:31.780
Now, I'm reading the Declaration of Independence.
00:25:44.240
And provide new guards for their future security.
00:25:52.160
I want to live by the Constitution of the United States.
00:25:56.660
But I wouldn't mind throwing off some of the old guards because they're not protecting and defending the Constitution of the United States.
00:26:14.120
You know, people are like, we should just secede.
00:26:29.880
You have to then provide new guards for their future security.
00:26:34.820
Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies.
00:26:37.380
And now, with necessity, which constrains them to alter their former systems of government,
00:26:43.960
the history of the present king of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurptations,
00:26:50.500
all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states.
00:26:57.060
To prove this, let the facts be submitted to a candid world.
00:27:05.400
Some of these are old-timey, and I'm going to skip a couple of them.
00:27:09.520
But see if any of them have any relevance today.
00:27:15.040
One, he has refused his assent or his agreement to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
00:27:27.500
Has the president withheld his signature on anything that is wholesome, good, and necessary?
00:27:35.640
He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance unless suspended in their operation
00:27:47.920
And when suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
00:27:52.920
He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people
00:27:57.900
unless these people would relinquish the right of representation in their legislature,
00:28:03.340
a right inestimable for them and formidable to tyrants only.
00:28:10.800
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant
00:28:19.060
and for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
00:28:28.660
He's suspending the operation of his governors.
00:28:34.000
He is also taking the legislature and he's calling, he suspends them and then says,
00:28:46.920
And then he's only moving them all around the country in the colonies.
00:28:55.060
He has dissolved the representative houses repeatedly for opposing with manly firmness,
00:29:07.920
Can you imagine the president saying we're suspending the Supreme Court or the Senate or
00:29:16.400
So when people say, we should revolt, they were going through a lot more and they exhausted
00:29:30.360
Um, he has refused for a long time after such disillusions to cause others to be elected,
00:29:36.360
whereby the legislative powers have returned to the people at large for their exercise.
00:29:41.080
The state remaining in the meantime, exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without
00:29:53.200
He's obstructed the administration of justice by refusing to agree to laws for the establishing
00:30:01.420
He has made judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their offices and the amount
00:30:08.540
This one, I think we're starting to see that we are, we're making the judges dependent on
00:30:23.360
He has erected a multitude of new offices and sent swarms of officers to harass our people
00:30:36.420
He has kept among us in times of peace, standing armies without the consent of our legislature.
00:30:43.800
He has affected to render the military independent of and superior to the civil power.
00:30:53.200
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution
00:31:03.500
He has quartered large bodies of armed troops among us for protecting them by mock trial from
00:31:10.840
punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states.
00:31:15.980
I think that's happening in a different way to where we're just letting murderers go
00:31:22.620
for cutting off trade with all parts of the world.
00:31:27.080
That's kind of a biggie for imposing taxes on us without our consent.
00:31:30.900
Another really big one for depriving us in many cases, the benefits of trial by jury.
00:31:37.660
The transportation or the transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretend offenses,
00:31:44.660
for taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, for suspending our own legislature,
00:31:52.080
declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases.
00:31:57.220
He's abdicated governments here by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against
00:32:08.280
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burned our towns, and destroyed the lives of
00:32:16.960
He is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works
00:32:23.440
of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy,
00:32:31.080
or is it perfidy, scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages and totally unworthy of
00:32:39.560
It goes on, excited domestic insurrections among us.
00:32:46.340
In every stage of these operations, we have petitioned for redress.
00:32:50.180
Now, let me give you one thing that they petitioned for that is in the first draft of the Declaration
00:32:59.840
of Independence, and it is important because everybody will tell you now that, oh my gosh,
00:33:08.060
We are a people that just, all we wanted to do was just have slavery.
00:33:15.500
We were built on slavery, and that's all we were built on.
00:33:19.160
No, in Thomas Jefferson's own handwriting, he wrote the last usurptation.
00:33:29.660
They're one to two lines, except this one is half a page.
00:33:34.980
He wrote, and finally, he has waged cruel war against human nature itself, violating its
00:33:41.900
most sacred rights of life and liberty in the persons of a distant people who never offended
00:33:48.120
him, captivating and carrying them into slavery in another hemisphere, or to incur miserable
00:33:57.900
This piratical warfare, so the warfare of pirates.
00:34:10.300
It is why our Marines are called Leathernecks, because they actually put a big strip of leather
00:34:15.840
under their chin, down to their collarbone, all around their neck, because we were fighting
00:34:24.640
And they would just chop the heads off of people while they were in battle.
00:34:30.180
So that's why our Marines are called Leathernecks.
00:34:32.900
So the pirates at this time were the pirates, the Barbary Coast pirates, and they were a plague
00:34:42.500
on all of free people, because they would declare that if you were not Muslim, then they could
00:34:50.980
just take your stuff and your people and make them slaves.
00:34:54.140
So he's saying that the king is using this piratical warfare, the opprobrium of infidel powers,
00:35:04.300
and it is the warfare of the printed and underlined Christian king of Great Britain.
00:35:13.000
He's mocking him, saying, how can he possibly call himself a Christian when he's acting like the pirates?
00:35:20.860
He is determined to keep an open market where capitalized men should be bought and sold.
00:35:28.400
And he has prostituted his negative for suppressing every legislative attempt to prohibit and restrain
00:35:39.280
And with this assemblage of horrors, he might want, and that this assemblage of horrors might
00:35:46.860
want no fact of distinguished die, he is now exciting those very people, in other words,
00:35:55.680
the slaves, he's exciting those very people to rise in arms amongst us, so they may purchase their liberty
00:36:06.160
for which he deprived them and murder the people upon who he has also obtruded them, thus paying off former
00:36:16.400
crimes committed against the liberties of one people with crimes he urges them to commit against the lives
00:36:31.480
In every stage of this oppression, we have petition for redress.
00:36:36.920
He goes on and on and on about how we've tried to do everything we can to stop this and everything else,
00:36:50.640
So, why wasn't that in the Declaration of Independence?
00:36:56.000
I just watched something on YouTube, and they said it's because Congress didn't want any mention
00:37:10.640
It isn't in, because the first draft does not say a unanimous declaration.
00:37:16.160
It says a Declaration of Independence from the United States of America Congress.
00:37:23.220
The final edition, as I told you a little while ago, had to be voted on by every state so the king
00:37:32.260
So, in a country of 13 colonies where everybody loved slavery, everybody just wanted to have
00:37:41.460
more slaves so we could have more money, and they did not care about people, how many states
00:37:53.620
Two, South Carolina and Georgia, which I might point out, the guy voting in Virginia,
00:38:02.260
was Thomas Jefferson, who wrote that paragraph and wanted that paragraph in there.
00:38:09.680
That means 11 of the 13 colonies wanted to abolish slavery with the Declaration of Independence.
00:38:22.500
The 4th of July might be over, but that doesn't mean you can't still get the very best window

One way of doing this is by buying things that are made here in America, and really
00:40:08.380
made here in America, because, you know, a lot of people say that they're making things
00:40:11.740
in America, but surprise, surprise, they're actually not.
00:40:15.420
It's hard to know who to trust in this, with this stuff, really.
00:40:18.360
But I can tell you at least one place you can always trust.
00:40:21.100
Those are the good folks over at American Giant.
00:40:24.080

00:40:54.620
The cotton, the milling, the cutting, the sewing, 100% American.
00:40:58.760
You can buy cheaper, and you're going to get cheaper quality, made by workers overseas
00:41:03.280
who aren't being paid a living wage, or you can buy quality that will last for generations.

00:41:26.600
Listen to the last paragraph of the Declaration of Independence and show me how far away we
00:41:36.760
We, therefore, the representatives of the United States of America in general, Congress
00:41:40.680
assembled, appealing to the supreme judge of the world for the recessitude of our intentions,
00:41:48.060
do, in the name and the authority of the good people of these colonies, solemnly publish
00:41:53.480
and declare these united colonies are and right to be free and independent states and absolve
00:42:00.380
from all allegiance to the British crown, and for the support of this declaration and firm reliance
00:42:08.780
on the protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes,
00:42:21.180
It is, we need to tell you why we are breaking away, because we see things differently than you do,
00:42:28.420
and you keep getting in the way, and you won't listen to us on these, and we have to live this way.
00:42:35.000
And so we're breaking up, and we want to be enemies in war, but in peace, friends.
00:43:01.740
We got to stand together in the course of life.
00:43:16.640
What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:43:33.040
Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:43:35.920
Today, I thought we would take the day after we celebrated our independence
00:43:41.840
by eating hot dogs and drinking beer and watching fireworks.
00:43:47.060
I thought, today, we should spend some time with our founding documents
00:43:51.560
and write some of the truths that have been so turned upside down by our educational system.
00:43:59.880
So, we're going through the Declaration of Independence, which we did in hour number one,
00:44:06.340
We're going to go through slavery, what happened right after the Declaration of Independence,
00:44:13.980
a little of our pilgrims, and then we'll talk about the Constitution.
00:44:25.180
First, Sarah, who's our sponsor this half hour?
00:44:28.560
American Financing NMLS 182334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
00:44:37.120
Yeah, your voices. You've been gone. How long have you been gone, Sarah?
00:44:57.180
Anyway, let me talk to you a little bit about your debt.
00:45:04.600
The type that credit cards are very famous for producing.
00:45:08.020
Interest rates for credit cards tend to be in the 20% range, which is nuts if you think about it.
00:45:14.840
Low-interest mortgage refi might just be the thing to get you out from underneath something like that.
00:45:23.620
You can get burned if you're not with the right loan company.
00:45:26.780
And this is why you need to reach out to American Financing.

They have custom loans to fit almost everybody.
00:45:55.020
Check them out today, and you'll see what I mean.
00:46:12.300
So I want to go through some things that you might find on Wikipedia
00:46:18.820
and some things you might not find on Wikipedia.
00:46:22.120
So on Wikipedia, you will find that the United States began slavery.
00:46:30.960
The institution of slavery was established in North America in the 16th century under the Spanish colonization.
00:47:09.080
So we see that it's happening all over the world.
00:47:14.500
By the way, the majority of slaves that were imported from Africa went down to South America, mainly Brazil.
00:47:31.320
I am looking at it from a historic perspective.
00:47:34.100
You cannot take something out of the context of the time.
00:47:41.140
First of all, I won't make an excuse for Jamestown.
00:47:48.880
Jamestown, if you go to our museum, you'll see we have pictures of a skull because it ended in cannibalism.
00:47:57.140
And the skull has knife marks on the head from where they were carving the flesh off of the body.
00:48:08.100
And I think it always does when you come to this country or you focus on money and you make God or gold your God.
00:48:21.060
And when you do that, everything goes wrong because you'll do anything because your God is money.
00:48:31.400
Well, I can certainly do that by enslaving people.
00:48:41.060
However, it was not a part of the Plymouth colony.
00:48:48.640
And this is something that we went through in the between 1850 and 1870.
00:49:06.880
Because one was really super bad and led to slavery and eventually sedition and treason and the Civil War.
00:49:17.200
The other led to the Declaration of Independence and a God-minded people who were trying to do decent, honorable, and freeing things for all mankind.
00:49:35.960
Now, when it comes to slavery with our pilgrims, let me give you a couple of facts.
00:49:42.440
The pilgrims, when they came over, they made slavery illegal from, I think, day one.
00:49:54.180
You can't steal a man from his home and where he is and just enslave him.
00:49:59.540
It's why the Indians broke the longest-running treaty in the United States, the treaty with the pilgrims.
00:50:07.960
Because war with some tribes, but the tribes that the pilgrims made treaties with, the wars between the tribes was really vicious, just vicious.
00:50:21.260
And the Native Americans, some tribes, would actually torture the people that they would capture, the men.
00:50:34.440
They would peel their skin off of them while they were alive.
00:50:39.540
And they did this to frighten the other side, to make sure that the other side knew, do not pick a war with us.
00:50:47.280
So they were doing that to frighten the other tribe, and the other tribe would do the same.
00:50:56.360
They would also take their women and children, and they would make them into slaves.
00:51:01.060
When the pilgrims arrived, the Native Americans were curious about the white man's God, and we were eager to share it,
00:51:09.900
and made the Bible, and we had a copy of it in the museum, made the Bible, wrote the Bible in the Native American tongue so they could read it.
00:51:20.260
The reason why that treaty was broken, not by us, but by the Native Americans, is too many Christianized Indians were saying,
00:51:30.180
wait, we got to go to war, but we can't torture.
00:51:35.340
This was such a big deal, man-stealing, that a storm reared its ugly head on the East Coast,
00:51:45.780
and it blew a slave ship into port at the Plymouth Colony.
00:51:51.580
The slave ship comes in, and you could smell a slave ship from a mile away.
00:52:00.200
The pilgrims boarded and arrested the captain and the first mate of that ship because man-stealing was illegal.
00:52:10.680
Then, this is a poor group of people who are giving 50% of everything they own to the king just so they can stay alive,
00:52:21.680
and they take up a collection among themselves to be able to hire another crew, put provisions on that ship, and send it back to Africa to free them.
00:52:36.080
That's quite a different story that we don't have to reimagine.
00:52:44.080
I suggest that we pick the pilgrims, and that's what we did during the Civil War, and in 1870, or I think it was 1870 or 1880,
00:53:13.060
Congress printed a map that shows the tree of sedition coming from Jamestown or the street tree that gives you all kinds of blessings,
00:53:25.920
the tree of liberty that came from the pilgrims in Massachusetts.
00:53:31.140
So we start to abolish slavery mainly in the North really early.
00:53:38.940
If you would look at New England as a country, it would have abolished slavery like 100 years ahead of everybody else,
00:53:54.640
During and after the American Revolution, the abolition of slavery became a big deal,
00:54:08.340
I just told you in the Declaration of Independence, there was a paragraph written by Thomas Jefferson that only two colonies voted against,
00:54:20.440
In fact, Virginia voted for the abolition of slavery to be put into the Declaration of Independence,
00:54:26.180
and that was Thomas Jefferson who wrote it and voted in Virginia.
00:54:35.460
So we wanted to end it, 11 out of the 13 colonies, immediately.
00:54:43.600
So when we become a country, George Washington lays out the Northwest Ordinance.
00:54:52.440
We're under the Articles of Confederation, where the federal government is very weak.
00:54:57.160
But in the Northwest Ordinance, it's quite an amazing document.
00:55:04.700
In the Northwest Ordinance, George Washington lays out a couple of things,
00:55:09.980
that we have to have the fundamental principles of civil and religious liberty in all the territories,
00:55:20.260
that are above, what was it, Louisiana, I think, or Kentucky.
00:55:36.240
And so everything new that we're going to bring out in territories up in the north,
00:55:41.400
from Iowa all the way to the coast, cannot have slavery,
00:55:50.260
And for the good government and the happiness of mankind,
00:55:58.160
schools and the means of education shall forever be encouraged.
00:56:02.440
The utmost good faith shall always be observed towards the Indians.
00:56:07.380
Their lands and their property shall never be taken from them without their consent.
00:56:20.580
And in their property rights, in their liberty,
00:56:23.000
they shall never be invaded or disturbed unless in just and lawful wars authorized by Congress,
00:56:34.020
shall from time to time be made for preventing wrongs from being done to them
00:56:38.240
and preserving peace and friendship with the Native Americans.
00:56:42.060
Again, this is the idea that all comes from the pilgrims,
00:56:48.060
not from the people of Jamestown that eventually just start taking everything from everyone.
00:57:04.380
If you don't know what the Articles of Confederation are,
00:57:11.680
It is the first constitution of the United States.
00:57:17.900
It's actually, in this first constitution, it establishes, are you ready, a league of friendship.
00:57:30.320
That's how incredibly weak the association was with the states.
00:57:37.860
The government was like, hey neighbor, how are you doing?
00:57:48.400
Obviously, that didn't work, but the Northwest Ordinance comes from that.
00:58:08.820
After the Northwest Ordinance, we have the gradual emancipation in New York,
00:58:17.140
We have in the constitution that we write and is done, I think, in 1791 is the Bill of Rights
00:58:32.100
And that abolishes the slave trade, I believe, in 1807.
00:58:41.260
But what we do is we say, we're no longer going to import slaves.
00:58:52.680
Why haven't you just taken all the guns from Americans?
00:58:57.640
If you believe you're so right, why haven't you just gone door to door and taken the guns?
00:59:09.140
This is causing the death of all of these children.
00:59:12.120
So, you're trying to change it in laws, but then it never seems to happen.
00:59:24.440
For the same reason, the founders didn't abolish slavery immediately.
00:59:32.360
At first, for the Declaration of Independence, it was two states, but it was allowed to fester
00:59:40.240
and it spread into the southern states because it's evil and pernicious.
00:59:45.400
The government was trying to stop it like progressives try to stop things one step at a time.
00:59:55.620
Because if you would have just said, no more slavery, we would have gone to war.
01:00:02.740
If you would say, we're coming to pick up all the guns, America would go to war.
01:00:22.960
And I think we're doing that on abortion, on the right.
01:00:25.240
You're doing that with guns or communism or whatever it is you want on the left.
01:00:41.600
Here's to the real estate agent who really went above and beyond.
01:00:45.800
That one that, you know, when you were stressed out and they came over to the house and they
01:00:50.840
just took care of everything and then they did all the right things in advertising and they
01:00:57.480
So, they had already had all of these buyers lined up for a house like yours.
01:01:06.540
Remember that real estate agent that you've never had or at least I never have?
01:01:19.920
This is a company that my company, my company, I started it.
01:01:24.180
Um, and it is a company that just goes out and looks and does a lot of the homework for
01:01:31.960
I want, I urge you to meet with these people and make your own judgment, but we do the
01:01:36.160
homework to get you to a certain level where they are the ones that will bust their butt
01:01:43.980
They have a great track record and they're really good people.
01:01:54.000
We'll say, you tell us where you're moving from and to, and we'll send you the right real
01:01:57.480
estate agent and you check it out for yourself.
01:02:16.520
And, um, I'm, we, we, uh, we end the war of 1812 and we make a treaty with Britain.
01:02:25.320
And we make this treaty and in the treaty, we have to do one thing the British want us
01:02:34.660
I think it's like in 18, 18 or 90, 19, we actually enact this because we're in a treaty
01:02:43.320
We dedicate part of our Navy to go and patrol the coast of Africa to make sure the African
01:02:55.380
The United States of America had naval forces off the coast of Africa by 1820.
01:03:03.520
And we had them until the civil war when we needed to recall those ships to fight the
01:03:20.880
I mean, shouldn't that one thing be in our history books?
01:03:31.400
That's the South trying to fight for Northern states with the Missouri Compromise.
01:03:37.040
And the Northwest Ordinance had already banned all slavery.
01:03:41.360
It takes us until, uh, 1861 to abolish slavery, but it was by congressional action and it didn't
01:03:54.780
Lincoln, being a lawyer, knows it's going to take something radically different.
01:04:10.680
And did it end all slavery in America for the slave trade program?
01:04:24.040
This month, when we hopefully are humble, it's humility month.
01:04:30.440
We should be humble and gratitude and show gratitude for our country.
01:04:36.660
Celebrate your independence this year by learning more about America.
01:04:43.340
The Tuttle Twins are on a mission to help families learn history.
01:04:46.900
If we can understand the stories and the ideas that made America so special, we'll know how
01:04:53.220
important it is to preserve our freedoms and our story.
01:04:57.480
Most textbooks don't teach these ideas to kids, but the Tuttle Twins, America's history
01:05:06.020
Come away with an appreciation of the ideas that makes America so special.
01:05:17.760
To celebrate their new book, Tuttle Twins, giving one family a vacation getaway to visit
01:05:26.860
Make sure that you read the entry information and official rules and sign up.
01:05:39.500
So, we're talking about slavery in America and trying to give you some facts that you might
01:05:58.940
Have you ever heard of the name Benjamin Banneker?
01:06:02.140
Benjamin Banneker was a contemporary with Thomas Jefferson and George Washington.
01:06:06.900
He made his own almanac, which was just as good and just as popular or almost as popular
01:06:17.920
In 1859, now Banneker is dead, his institute in Philadelphia, which was an abolitionist group,
01:06:26.200
urged African Americans to celebrate Independence Day while bearing witness to the inconsistency
01:06:34.200
between the ideals espoused in the Declaration of Independence and their practice of slavery.
01:06:41.200
Chairman of the meeting promised his audience a brighter future.
01:06:45.340
He said, quote, we have learned by experience and by the comparison of ourselves and
01:06:52.240
people similarly situated to hope that at some day, not very far in the future, our grievances
01:07:01.160
will be redressed and that our long lost rights will be restored to us and that in
01:07:07.540
the full stature of men, we will stand up and with our once cruel opponents and oppressors
01:07:15.380
rejoice in the declaration of our common country and hail with them the approach of the glorious
01:07:26.700
Benjamin Banneker was, as I said, a contemporary of Thomas Jefferson and the founders and there's
01:07:38.280
correspondence between Thomas Jefferson and Banneker where Banneker is saying, you know,
01:07:46.480
Let's abolish slavery and sends him this great letter.
01:07:49.740
Thomas Jefferson responds with, you're right, it is horrible and I'm going to use your almanac
01:07:59.860
to send it over to Paris and other places to people that are in the abolitionist movement.
01:08:08.220
I'm grossly quoting here, but send it over to people who also want the same things and use
01:08:17.460
your almanac as a way to dispel the myths and the lies about your people, that you're not
01:08:35.220
I mean, what the Banneker Institute in Philadelphia said in 1859 is exactly what
01:08:49.240
And there's always people fighting for good and bad, just like there are right now.
01:08:59.800
We haven't been this divided since the Civil War.
01:09:09.540
The principles of the Declaration of Independence.
01:09:13.380
This time, instead of saying secession, they are saying, let's just get rid of the Constitution
01:09:23.980
They only quote it when it works in their favor.
01:09:28.720
I quote the Declaration of Independence, and I stand by our system of government even when
01:09:37.580
All I want is us to strive to live up to the promises in our Declaration of Independence and the laws granted to the government,
01:09:51.740
the restraints on the government that are put and spelled out in our Constitution.
01:09:59.360
And that's all we're divided on is the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
01:10:12.560
That's exactly what we were divided on in the 1850s and 60s.
01:10:20.040
So the idea to stop slavery, it was originally the Congress came up with a really weak idea.
01:10:29.780
And their idea was, let's declare the Southerners in rebellion.
01:10:36.740
And that way we can go and claim all of their property.
01:10:40.780
However, unlike what is happening right now with, what do you call that, Stu, when a cop pulls you over and can just take your stuff?
01:11:11.620
Because there's like six of us right now all going, oh my gosh, what is it?
01:11:17.720
And yeah, and about 4 million people yelling at the radio right now.
01:11:27.860
So basically, they were going through civil asset forfeiture.
01:11:31.560
But back then, the lawyer, Lincoln, said, that's not going to work.
01:11:39.240
Because after they're out of rebellion, their family can say, wait a minute, I wasn't in rebellion.
01:11:51.440
And so, remember, the South was declaring slaves as property.
01:12:06.180
And then we had the amendments to the Constitution, which made it rock solid.
01:12:14.820
So we abolish slavery in, I think that was 1863.
01:12:23.100
1863 when we abolish slavery with the Emancipation Proclamation.
01:12:29.120
And it really takes root in 65 with the amendments, I think, in 66.
01:12:47.660
Many people will tell you, well, it stopped once we passed the constitutional amendment.
01:12:54.800
Let me remind you that, first of all, the reason why progressives don't like to look at the Constitution and the reason why I love the Constitution is because it can forever change.
01:13:11.780
It's not a living document, but it does have some resuscitation standards set forth.
01:13:20.300
You want to start its heart beating again and add some new stuff before you snuff the life out of it again?
01:13:28.600
You can change it through the Bill of Rights and the amendment system.
01:13:44.420
The reason why you don't want to do it that way, progressives, is because you know you can't get 70, 75% of the nation to go for the things that you want to do.
01:13:58.320
So you do it cloak and dagger in the darkness or through the administrative state.
01:14:12.380
But we're such a racist country that we got all of the states and Congress to agree to all of the anti-slavery laws, amend the Constitution so it's very clear, all men, that's black, white, everybody, that can be a vote.
01:14:37.140
The only ones that didn't apply to were the Native Americans.
01:14:43.880
Native Americans had a higher percentage of slavery in their demographics, in their tribes, than Americans did.
01:15:00.620
Everybody forgets that a lot of those people on the Trail of Tears were slaves.
01:15:13.040
The United States had to go a step further to stop slavery in the other nations that are within our nation.
01:15:22.140
And it took them over a year to recalibrate all of our treaties.
01:15:33.340
And they didn't give it up when the Emancipation Proclamation happened.
01:15:39.280
So, again, I mean, besides an epic struggle with something that man has in his heart, dominion over others in one form or another,
01:15:54.460
whether it's just being a tyrant or a slave owner, this epic struggle that starts with the pilgrims declaring no man stealing,
01:16:09.860
It is a story of woe and misery and death and destruction and cruelty,
01:16:16.480
but it is also showing us that when all mankind believes one thing,
01:16:26.200
it takes time to be able to abolish and change people's minds unless you want to go to war.
01:16:36.440
War in a country that has the mission statement that we have is not a good idea.
01:16:48.680
Getting people to recognize that mission statement and to renew it in their hearts should be our goal every July 4th, Independence Day.
01:16:58.760
It should be our goal to mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor to make the mission statement of America closer to a reality.
01:17:15.120
And show me the country that is even saying that that's the point of their country.
01:17:20.500
We don't hit it, but who else is truly trying as a formal declaration of this is what our government is based on?
01:17:31.460
That all men are created equal and endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights.
01:17:37.200
Among them, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
01:17:40.320
And governments are instituted among men to protect those rights.
01:17:44.980
There is no other government on the face of the earth.
01:17:55.740
I tell you that I've never put a flag on my set before.
01:18:05.460
I've always banned the flag because after 9-11, it became a citizenship test.
01:18:11.900
You're wearing the flag lapel pin or you're un-American.
01:18:16.180
And I saw that that would be made political, and I didn't want to be involved in politicizing the flag.
01:18:24.500
The flag is only a representation, and it's a representation of those ideas and ideals.
01:18:35.780
If some other country came up with a better mission statement that was more glorious, and they had the chance to get as close to it as we have gotten to this one, as flawed as we are,
01:18:50.640
I would sign over my citizenship and go to that nation in a heartbeat.
01:18:56.940
But I don't know what a greater mission statement would be, and I don't believe there's a group of people that could come this close.
01:19:05.880
We need to renew that mission statement in our hearts and make it closer to a reality.
01:19:14.860
It's the trajectory of American people that matters in history.
01:19:22.660
Fourth of July might be over, but that doesn't mean you can't still get the very best window coverings for your house and still save a bunch of money while you're doing it.

01:20:50.980
This is my last day in St. George, Utah, for the museum.
01:20:59.220
We started packing up before people were even gone yesterday.
01:21:02.780
They were gone in the first half of the museum, and we immediately were following them as they left.
01:21:08.240
The last person left the room, we're like, pack it up, boys.
01:21:14.860
We open tomorrow in Idaho, and that's the packing and unpacking of two full tractor trailers.
01:21:27.360
But we're so excited to have a few more days to share this with people who haven't seen it yet.
01:21:31.960
And I'm pretty sure, I mean, we have to do a final autopsy on everything, but I'm pretty sure we're going to take this on the road and try to come to your state and your community, perhaps in 20, are we in 23 now?
01:21:54.820
So I'd like to have this on the road next year, especially during election year, to remind you what we're voting for.
01:22:08.700
So, you know, the one thing I don't have that I would really like to get, I've never seen it come up for auction, but I'd love to get for the museum, Hunter Biden's crack pipe.
01:22:32.800
You know, could be, might even be in a garbage can behind a supermarket.
01:22:42.720
But I don't think that will be in any of the museums anytime soon.
01:22:50.260
So what else is there to talk about independence?
01:23:12.720
What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:23:55.940
I mean, if it's Pride Month, I think Pride goes before the fall or something like that.
01:24:03.560
So I thought that Humility might be a good month to follow Pride Month.
01:24:11.800
And when we're humble, we will have gratitude for the blessings that we do have.
01:24:17.800
I think that's our biggest problem in the country.
01:24:20.740
I mean, we don't follow the Bill of Rights or the Constitution or any of our laws.
01:24:24.720
But other than that and finding cocaine in the White House this weekend, oh my gosh.
01:24:37.420
And that would immediately stop all of the fighting and the complaining and everything else that is so beneath America.
01:24:45.820
I'm going to talk to you about the future of education for our kids in a very unique way.
01:24:58.660
Puddle Twins are on a mission to help families learn from history.
01:25:02.880
And they're doing the best way they know how with amazing books for kids.
01:25:11.880
If we could understand just the stories, the ideals, and the ideas.
01:25:17.480
Just even, I've been pounding this today, the mission statement of our country.
01:25:26.700
If we just understood what that really meant and what it was, what the intent was,
01:25:33.140
and how we've never really lived up to it, we are trying to progress and get better at it.
01:25:40.880
Sometimes we get worse at it, then we get better, then we get worse, then we get better.
01:25:45.360
If we would just understand these things and forget the dates and the names of the places where the battles were held.
01:25:59.080
That's what you'll get in the Tunnel Twins books.
01:26:01.380
The 4th of July is past, but the time to teach your kids a real love of American history is right now.
01:26:10.640
And to celebrate the release of their new book, the Tunnel Twins are giving one family vacation away.
01:26:16.260
And it is to the historic sites all around Boston.
01:26:22.880
Get entry information and official rules for the vacation getaway.
01:26:34.900
Mr. Dennis Levitt is with me, and I want to tell you a story.
01:26:41.940
Over a year ago, or maybe it was exactly a year ago,
01:26:49.040
to help break ground on something called Liberty Village.
01:26:54.620
I knew a bit about it, enough to be wanting to be here and lend my voice and support.
01:27:03.880
And at the groundbreaking ceremonies, before I got my shovel and my hard hat,
01:27:15.960
a guy stands up, never really spent any time with him before,
01:27:22.140
and I heard him speak for the first time, and his name is Dennis Levitt.
01:27:30.300
this place that is breaking ground for Liberty Village.
01:27:39.520
if this is the guy in charge, I want to invest in this.
01:27:45.800
And I said, uh-huh, I was thinking the same thing.
01:27:50.080
And what I mean by invest in it is not to get money back,
01:28:02.920
The people behind it, it's so well thought out.
01:28:06.820
And Dennis is truly one of the best men I've ever met.
01:28:14.180
We're honored to have you a part of anything that we're doing,
01:28:17.380
and your impact has made such a difference for Liberty Village
01:28:21.320
and for United We Pledge, everything that we're doing,
01:28:27.580
So, Dennis, tell people what Liberty Village is.
01:28:31.520
So Liberty Village is a 40-acre master plan campus
01:28:34.340
that's going to take some of the most iconic buildings of America's history,
01:28:40.760
but not as museums, as learning centers, right?
01:28:43.460
So think of the exhibit that you've just had here in St. George.
01:28:46.860
All of those documents, all of that rich history,
01:28:54.240
we want to build some of the buildings where those things transpired
01:28:58.020
so that when visitors and guests come to the village,
01:29:01.480
that they can have a pallet that just opens their eyes.
01:29:05.000
Imagine Independence Hall and Mount Vernon, Monticello,
01:29:08.140
the Green Dragon Tavern, the Elizabeth Powell Home.
01:29:10.560
We have 20 homes planned in this phased project
01:29:13.940
so that students and families can come on campus,
01:29:27.360
in a way that they can just appreciate America's story.
01:29:29.720
So when you say you're going to reproduce them,
01:29:34.740
but not as museums, for instance, Independence Hall,
01:29:38.360
when you go to Philadelphia, the part you're interested in
01:29:51.720
is where Nicolas Cage finally found the glasses
01:30:02.120
Will you have, like for instance, in Liberty Hall,
01:30:24.400
We also, of course, are going to have some lecturing.
01:30:30.820
so you could talk to Jefferson or Adams or Washington
01:30:34.800
and that they'll stay in 1700s-style character.
01:30:47.400
And I know we've been talking about the technology inside.
01:31:00.160
but it was what the left is working on in education.
01:31:41.540
We have to be developing it on our side as well,
01:32:27.440
and then there are other times that I get there
01:32:41.540
You just see some of those old-fashioned things
01:32:43.540
that are so magical for children and for youth.
