00:00:00.000
American financing, I've been talking to you about it for a long time, asking you to please get your mortgage refi, get it refied right now or do a consolidation loan.
00:00:12.620
If you're paying three or four percent on your mortgage, you're paying too much.
00:00:23.760
They're really good people and they work for you.
00:00:26.780
It's a family owned business and they have you covered coast to coast.
00:00:36.420
But Sarah, every shirt of yours is a drinking shirt, isn't it?
00:00:59.600
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:38.740
And oh, my gosh, do we have some good eating for you today.
00:01:44.700
Oh, I hate to play the embarrassing clips, but I will.
00:01:55.540
Also, if you're worried about gun control, there's lots of things you can do.
00:02:02.860
He's a state senator, Tom Corbin, from South Carolina.
00:02:06.740
What they're doing in South Carolina is amazing.
00:02:25.940
He labels himself as proof positive that Relief Factor works.
00:02:30.400
He had been suffering from a ton of pain in his back and his right foot over two decades.
00:02:35.600
Now, during that time, he tried a lot of different things to try to make the pain go away.
00:02:39.100
And some of them work for a while and then they fade away.
00:02:44.640
Of course, there were other medications that he tried.
00:02:47.040
The ones that made him, you know, feel like he had not really himself.
00:02:52.460
A few years ago, Wayne heard me talking about Relief Factor.
00:03:13.420
Usually, you can tell if it's going to work for you within the first three weeks.
00:03:17.460
That's why they have a three week trials trial pack.
00:03:20.240
If it's not working within three weeks, it's not going to work for you.
00:03:23.420
Probably 70 percent of the people who try it go on to order more.
00:03:29.460
Three week quick start trial pack for only 1995.
00:03:40.740
Before, I mean, before we get to Tom Corbyn, I mean, I just, I have to play one of the
00:03:49.280
highlights, I think, of the press conference yesterday.
00:03:52.940
50 votes so that the Vice President of the United States can break the tie.
00:04:04.060
I have never been particularly poor at calculating how to get things done in the United States
00:04:09.860
So the best way to get something done, if you, if you hold near and dear to you that you
00:04:15.520
like to be able to, anyway, we're going to get a lot done.
00:04:24.720
And if we have to, if there's complete lockdown and chaos as a consequence of the filibuster,
00:04:30.680
Now, have you heard any of the, have you heard any of the main networks even talk about that?
00:04:36.080
No, I was reading he was crisp, but he was on his game.
00:04:44.760
And I lived through the Reagan administration at the end when they were calling him senile and
00:04:53.760
I've never heard that from anybody but my grandfather right before he went into the
00:05:01.480
I mean, when obviously he was having real problems, but that was long after.
00:05:08.960
I don't know how you can just blow it off and say there's nothing there with that.
00:05:12.240
We're just, you know, conservative conspiracy theorists who are seeing something and imagining
00:05:19.440
I mean, he's the president of the United States, even though, you know, I don't think he's
00:05:23.840
I would like to have someone who is at least alert and competent and can keep his thoughts
00:05:31.240
And I can't wait to hear the opinion of Bill O'Reilly coming up in just about an hour from
00:05:37.780
I want to talk to you a little bit because in the press conference yesterday, there was
00:05:42.840
And if if Joe Biden gets rid of the filibuster and he goes after guns, it is going to tear
00:05:52.320
I mean, you can't you cannot take away the AR in today's world.
00:06:11.460
It's like, honestly, it's like going from trying to think of something that people who
00:06:25.020
I mean, they still call, you know, magazine a clip.
00:06:34.220
My dad was in the military, but we were not around guns at all.
00:06:36.580
I would without doing this stupid show every day, I would not know the difference between
00:06:41.180
I don't think there's a lot of if you know, but I mean a gun.
00:06:45.600
And like, yeah, do you talk to people who don't have any interest in even learning?
00:06:50.740
There's a difference between a magazine and a clip.
00:06:53.380
I mean, like, you know, famously, you know, Bloomberg, who's who has spent more money to try to
00:06:58.780
take your guns than anybody else in the country and yet carries one.
00:07:02.120
And of course, it has security and carries one.
00:07:04.480
But he was talking about an automatic weapon and didn't know the difference between automatic
00:07:09.120
I mean, that's an even more fundamental, obvious thing you need to know.
00:07:13.960
So the difference between going from a an AR, an auto, you know, a modern sporting rifle
00:07:20.300
and the one with the wood that, you know, you know, like they used in World War Two.
00:07:27.040
It's like going from, you know, one of those black scary pistols that you always see, like
00:07:33.900
with James Bond that everybody has now to a to a cowboy gun.
00:07:44.360
Now, there are things going on that you can get involved with.
00:07:47.780
And I urge you to get involved locally and at your state level to protect the Second Amendment.
00:07:55.820
I wanted to talk to State Senator Tom Corbin of South Carolina, because what they're doing
00:08:04.140
They have you have an unorganized militia already, and it's been it's been there since the beginning
00:08:21.220
Our state our state constitution has in it in Article 13, Section 1, it has lined out a
00:08:28.680
citizenry militia that's been in our state constitution since its inception.
00:08:32.380
OK, and I've I've been to South Carolina trying to remember, remind Stu, I think he was with
00:08:37.660
me one time when I was in South Carolina, I went into this this place and it's almost
00:08:42.940
like a museum, but it's also they still meet there.
00:08:45.780
It's a militia headquarters and they have the registration book that is still in practice
00:09:00.280
But anyway, you guys have had a militia from the beginning.
00:09:06.060
So what are you doing to fight against the the gun grab here?
00:09:15.240
And there have been other bills sponsored in the General Assembly of South Carolina.
00:09:19.800
For example, there's one dealing with the Second Amendment sanctuary state.
00:09:26.200
But basically what that bill does is that if the attorney general determines that a law
00:09:32.080
coming out of Washington or an executive order is unconstitutional, then no state funds can
00:09:37.880
be expended to enforce it, you know, which is great.
00:09:40.840
I mean, that's a that's somewhat of a pushback against Washington.
00:09:44.220
But I always wanted to pass a law creatively that would ensure and give comfort to the people
00:09:51.220
that I serve that Washington could not come down here and confiscate any of the weapons
00:10:01.040
So when I was thinking about how to do that, and I'll be honest with you, I collaborated with
00:10:07.440
Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr., who's a constitutional scholar, and I was trying to make this a great
00:10:13.020
bill, had a lot of help from staff in Columbia.
00:10:15.800
But the idea was when you look at previous Supreme Court rulings and you look at the United
00:10:21.940
States Constitution, which says in the Second Amendment, a well-regulated militia, comma,
00:10:28.380
being necessary to the security of a free state, comma, and these commas are important.
00:10:33.720
The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
00:10:36.880
You and I understand that the part about our Second Amendment not being infringed, and
00:10:42.440
infringed means to act so as to limit or undermine something.
00:10:49.060
OK, so you and I understand that that means the citizens of this nation.
00:10:53.380
OK, but sometimes Washington can be scary in the way they think.
00:10:58.180
So what I wanted to do was craft legislation that would actually
00:11:03.900
the way it would mesh and it would layer, it would give layers of protection.
00:11:10.680
So because we have what is deemed an unorganized militia in South Carolina, you're either if
00:11:17.360
you reside here, you are a member of the National Guard, the State Guard.
00:11:21.340
And if you're not a member of one of those, then you are in the South Carolina unorganized
00:11:26.020
You're automatically as a as a citizen of South Carolina.
00:11:34.440
So when when the Supreme Court has looked at the Second Amendment, they always look at it
00:11:41.460
in terms of, well, does the Second Amendment apply to every citizen or just to the militias?
00:11:46.880
OK, well, they've always determined it applies to the citizenry, which is great, which is
00:11:54.220
Well, suppose that a law was passed or an executive order that went back up to the Supreme
00:12:00.380
And they did decide that it was only the militia.
00:12:04.140
OK, this bill would then still protect every citizen of South Carolina because we are in
00:12:10.220
But all I had to do was go in and define what the armament or weaponry of that militia was.
00:12:20.400
They think we're forming a militia and, you know, we're trying to start a militia, things
00:12:26.540
All this bill does is define the weaponry of the militia.
00:12:32.460
It says an unorganized militia member, at his own expense, shall have the right to possess
00:12:39.680
and keep all arms that could be legally acquired or possessed by a South Carolina citizen as
00:12:47.520
And that date was just picked at random, Glenn.
00:12:51.520
OK, this includes, but if not limited to, shouldered rifles and shotguns, handguns, clips,
00:12:58.040
magazines, all components and all ammunition fitted for such weapons.
00:13:02.480
It's really a very brief bill, a to-the-point bill, but it's designed to prevent the federal
00:13:10.700
government from ever confiscating anything that we can legally have now because of the
00:13:17.320
They are the armament of our militia, and the government cannot disarm a state's militia
00:13:25.260
Well, you might be the only one, because I don't know how many states have a state militia
00:13:34.200
I would think that some states, particularly those that were involved with the Revolutionary
00:13:40.260
War at the time, or these areas along the coast, would have some sort of provision like that.
00:13:53.720
But that was the uniqueness of South Carolina that I discovered, and I felt like through
00:14:00.140
all the collaboration with all the wonderful people who helped me with this bill, that that
00:14:05.260
would be the best way to approach any sort of gun complications.
00:14:09.400
I love the idea of sanctuary states, Second Amendment sanctuary states.
00:14:16.980
What you do is, what the sanctuary state movement means, and it's really important, is that it
00:14:27.780
So the local law enforcement, nobody can help the federal government take guns away.
00:14:34.740
But it doesn't stop the federal government from coming in and doing it themselves.
00:14:44.680
You have actually state resources that can be used to stop the federal government from
00:14:53.660
These weapons that we possess are part of the weaponry of our organized and standing and
00:15:03.160
I didn't hear bullets or ammunition in that list.
00:15:08.960
I glazed over it, and I'm so sorry for the last sentence.
00:15:19.360
Senator Tom Corbin from South Carolina, thank you so much for what you're doing.
00:15:25.400
And gosh, we may be counting on the people of South Carolina.
00:15:37.000
I hope that you and your state are thinking this way.
00:15:40.700
By the way, I would love to see the numbers of new weapon purchases this week.
00:15:57.560
I mean, the line for guns, the ammunition, forget about it.
00:16:03.800
Nothing increases the amount of firearms in this country better than a Democratic president.
00:16:09.020
I mean, I think the gun companies are like, oh, come on, Biden.
00:16:19.180
If you are if you are mowing the lawn every every weekend, especially if you have a large lawn back in the 1960s, something happened to help you.
00:16:33.220
A company named Hustler invented something called the zero turn mower back then, mostly used for industrial products, things like, you know, mowing the sides of roads and everything else.
00:16:44.120
But people started seeing that and they're like, whoa, that is fantastic.
00:16:48.660
And the demand for that version to be used on regular lawns got bigger and bigger and bigger.
00:16:54.760
Now you can go in and all these other companies are like, look, it's a zero turn lawnmower.
00:17:01.320
The company that invented that in the 60s and then worked out all of the technology to make sure that it is rough and tumble and it works is Hustler.
00:17:10.540
So if you're in the market for a lawnmower, this will cut your grass in about half the time.
00:17:19.940
In fact, I encourage you to go out and look and then A, B, compare.
00:17:24.520
I'm telling you, there is nothing that compares to a Hustler.
00:17:40.540
Oh, by the way, there is something that is happening in in in over 20 states now.
00:18:01.500
Twenty states are looking to pass legislation on the Second Amendment to beef it up and to be sanctuary states.
00:18:15.520
If you look at the map of the United States, county by county, and you see the number of counties that have already passed, uh, gun sanctuary, it should tell the left and the media, America is not going to give up their guns.
00:18:46.820
I mean, it's almost as clean as California, but California even has in Northern California has some, uh, some counties that have passed this.
00:18:56.660
But if you see, uh, there's a lot of red state, uh, growth available there too.
00:19:02.040
I mean, there's very, very little in Nebraska, nothing in South Dakota.
00:19:05.140
Yeah, very little, almost nothing in North Dakota.
00:19:07.400
It looks like, is that Alabama that there's nothing Mississippi?
00:19:16.580
Um, but there is, there are some states that are almost completely filled in that haven't passed it as a state, but all of the cities and the counties have passed it.
00:19:25.960
Uh, and you need to get involved in that movement.
00:19:30.120
Uh, Texas, the governor just, uh, endorsed the, uh, movement here in, uh, Texas and it has been proposed.
00:19:38.580
Everyone should be on the phone with their state legislator and their state senator and their governor's office and say, I want the second amendment protected.
00:19:48.600
I want something like a, uh, a sanctuary state for the second amendment.
00:19:58.380
I mean, you could tell it was interesting in listening to the press conference yesterday.
00:20:02.100
Biden was asked directly, are guns your top priority?
00:20:06.040
And he didn't answer directly, but he did immediately pivot to infrastructure.
00:20:14.900
And you know, infrastructure is really important.
00:20:19.380
I mentioned that it is, it's not, the storyline is not finished.
00:20:27.980
They need, they need not a guy named, uh, you know, Ahmad to be the shooter.
00:20:40.980
They need to be, you know, that's what they need.
00:20:45.040
But I wonder if there's anything in the infrastructure bill.
00:20:51.640
It was, it was pushed out there as three trillion and they started looking at it more closely.
00:20:59.540
Is there something in that bill that will help them on guns?
00:21:07.700
I mean, they may very well, they may know what it is.
00:21:09.960
They may have it written, but the details of it have not been released yet.
00:21:18.280
How long would it take you to spend four trillion dollars?
00:21:20.660
I mean, you would think that that would be easy, but I don't think so.
00:21:27.340
At any other place than Taco Bell, it would be very, very difficult, very difficult.
00:21:32.180
I talked to Brian Riedel yesterday from the Manhattan Institute about this.
00:21:37.900
I mean, I, is this, Biden is coming in and tripling our debt, tripling it.
00:21:47.480
He was going through all the comparisons about these, these old timey days.
00:21:54.360
Where, you know, we've lumped on more debt in the last, you know, year.
00:21:59.420
And what Biden wants to spend in the next, you know, 10 years.
00:22:05.260
I mean, we might as well not even had a country the last 200 years.
00:22:07.460
I bet you that we have lumped on more debt from January to today than we did from George
00:22:34.220
It happens fast, and you don't always know why.
00:22:38.940
Maybe you had a password that was easy to guess, or you entered personal information
00:22:47.400
Whatever the case, you'll find yourself having lost your identity online to some cyber criminal,
00:22:57.100
Well, the first thing, you have to understand how cyber crime and identity theft are affecting
00:23:01.920
Every single day, we put our information at risk on the internet, and every day, there
00:23:06.560
are more and more cyber criminals that are looking for that information.
00:23:10.260
You never know from one day to the next when your turn is coming up, and it will come up.
00:23:18.740
It helps you monitor a ton more than just your credit, just your credit cards and your spending.
00:23:25.380
You can't keep track of all of this stuff on your own, and nobody can prevent all identity
00:23:29.240
theft, but LifeLock is there for you, and they'll see the things that you might miss

You're going to save 20 bucks off your subscription to BlazeTV now.
00:24:26.120
We just told you about what was happening in South Carolina and all over the country for
00:24:31.000
people who are trying to stand for the Second Amendment.
00:24:34.260
And there is a big push now, and everybody is going back and forth on transgender issues
00:24:41.260
with people competing against women in women's sports who used to be a man, yada, yada.
00:24:49.940
And, of course, if you are on one side, you're a homophobe bigot.
00:24:54.280
If you're on the other side, you can do no wrong.
00:25:03.120
We get past all of this by people just having some common sense and looking at some issues
00:25:12.360
The fact that you can have that the state will allow your child to have life altering drugs.
00:25:25.900
When there what was the last one I saw that the parents lost the right at like eight years old
00:25:31.720
and the child decided they wanted to be a different gender and the state said, yep, sorry.
00:25:39.060
And the parents were like, wait, wait, wait, what?
00:25:45.860
If you want to do something to your body, that's fine.
00:25:48.400
But once your brain has fully developed is probably a good standard.
00:25:54.200
There is a Democrat that is pushing a trans surgery ban for minors.
00:26:05.400
First of all, welcome to the program, Cesar McKnight.
00:26:12.840
I first want to start by giving you the opportunity.
00:26:27.420
And in fact, to further display the fact that I'm not phobic in any way,
00:26:33.280
I was one of the chief persons on our judiciary committee fighting to put in protections in our
00:26:38.240
hate crime bill for transgender, for LGBTQ people.
00:26:42.720
I mean, they stripped it out in the beginning in the subcommittee.
00:26:46.040
And in the full committee, we were able to put it back in.
00:26:48.400
So I have to tell people, why don't you judge me by what I've done?
00:26:52.600
And that is, I've worked hard to make sure that transgender people are protected from acts of violence.
00:26:58.620
So when I hear someone tell me I'm transphobic, I laugh at that.
00:27:02.040
And it's crazy how no matter what you did in the past does not matter unless you're 100 percent on board right now.
00:27:08.540
So tell me what you're trying to do in South Carolina.
00:27:14.320
This becoming a South Carolina doesn't suck hour.
00:27:20.260
Essentially, what this bill does is House Bill 4047 says that no child in South Carolina will be able to undergo
00:27:30.180
transgender surgery or transgender hormonal therapy under the age of 18.
00:27:36.520
So if a person's under the age of 18, they cannot have transgender surgery.
00:27:53.200
Well, actually, science says that people don't fully develop with regard to their brain until they're 25.
00:28:14.660
Yeah, I saw you say that, you know, it's a little unreasonable that you can't get a tattoo until you're 18.
00:28:22.680
But, heck, you could go have, you know, hormone blocking drugs, you know, when you're 12.
00:28:33.380
And I want you to understand that I've gotten some significant blowback, but I've also gotten some significant support, particularly from people who are transgender and LGBT.
00:28:44.680
They're just some people that have a political agenda.
00:28:47.720
And if you aren't 1,000 percent with them, you're their arch enemy.
00:28:52.060
I don't I've been in the state legislature now for going on eight years.
00:28:58.520
I compromise with people, the things that I can work with you on.
00:29:02.140
I work with you on and the things that I can't I won't work with you on, but I won't demonize you at the same time either.
00:29:07.680
You know, it's it's interesting to me that because I think I know a lot of gay people.
00:29:13.620
I don't think no, I don't have any transgender friends, but wouldn't be opposed to it.
00:29:17.900
But it is it's amazing to me that usually the ones in the gay community that I know are, you know, they've they've pushed for gay rights and gay marriage, et cetera, et cetera.
00:29:33.620
But then after that pass, they're kind of like, what is the rest of this?
00:29:39.680
And it is those few that have this extreme agenda that are pushing it.
00:29:46.640
And I quite honestly, I see that from a lot of white people on the African-American community.
00:29:55.020
And what I've tried to tell my my white progressive friends is that African-Americans tend to be much more socially conservative than their white progressive counterparts.
00:30:05.260
I'll give you an example. In my legislative district, I've got nothing but overwhelming support from this bill.
00:30:12.020
I've had people who are the head of my ministerial alliance reach out to me.
00:30:16.380
They are all supportive of this. And my legislative district is almost 65 percent African-American.
00:30:22.460
And even the white evangelicals that live in my community have told me we never voted for you before, but we will vote for you now.
00:30:29.440
So to me, this issue is a win win issue at home. And my job, number one in the legislature is to take care of home.
00:30:38.600
Let me ask you this, because we just had Tom Corbett on from South Carolina.
00:30:44.680
I'd be interested in what you thought of his unorganized militia bill.
00:30:50.900
I haven't really had an opportunity to study that bill in particular.
00:30:57.100
But what I will tell you is where I stand on the Second Amendment.
00:31:04.860
My parents ran a nightclub liquor store, a bail bonding company and a taxi cab company.
00:31:22.100
I'm not going to put any American citizen in a position to where they can't protect themselves.
00:31:27.440
I wouldn't do it to my parents, and I'm not going to do it to anyone else.
00:31:36.520
And I think that we have you can have responsible gun ownership in this country.
00:31:42.160
And I'm not going to support anything that's going to take away the rights of citizens to bear arms.
00:31:47.260
As a Democrat, how do we speak to other Democrats that have not gone all woke and crazy about the modern sporting rifle?
00:32:04.240
How do we explain an AR looks spooky, but it's not any different?
00:32:11.920
It's kind of hard for me to explain it to anyone.
00:32:14.200
I was in the Army, so I know how to use an AR-15.
00:32:17.760
I mean, that's what you learn in basic training.
00:32:19.800
And I think that all the people that are giving the most forceful blowback of talking about the AR-15 have never used one.
00:32:29.660
And they're trying to put this one-size-fits-all gun control thing on all of America.
00:32:37.760
What works in New York City does not work in King Street, South Carolina.
00:32:41.640
So I think it's a local issue, and you need to let your local legislature speak to those issues.
00:33:02.180
President Biden is very well-liked in my legislative district.
00:33:11.320
Speaker Pelosi, Leader Schumer, they're not as highly regarded.
00:33:18.940
Again, you're talking about San Francisco and New York City.
00:33:23.940
I mean, this is the land of barbecue, macaroni and cheese, and various other southern dishes.
00:33:29.620
There ain't no tofu in King Street, South Carolina.
00:33:33.680
So they're not as well-regarded as Joe Biden is.
00:33:37.500
Representative Cesar McKnight from South Carolina, a Democrat.
00:33:53.780
I mean, doesn't Cesar McKnight make a good radio name?
00:34:03.160
I think I was, oh boy, this is so embarrassing.
00:34:06.860
For like one weekend, maybe no more than two shows, I think I was like John St. John in
00:34:13.900
the time when everybody had to change their name.
00:34:16.380
Everyone in radio was John St. John for at least a week, I think.
00:34:26.560
And so one day on the air, I mean, literally, it was either the first show or the second
00:34:31.460
I just said, okay, I'm just going to be clean with it.
00:34:55.020
American financing will help you save money, lots of money.
00:35:00.160
If you are a homeowner and you have a mortgage that's over 4%, you can save a ton of money
00:35:08.900
If you have credit cards, how much are you paying for your credit card interest right
00:35:14.060
Do you even know they are raking in the cash by loaning you that money?
00:35:20.080
And they're raking it in every time you pay the bill because you're paying mainly interest.
00:35:27.260
And depending on how high that is, you may not be able to get out from underneath it.
00:35:32.400
That's why I would recommend that you would roll it in to one consolidated loan with American
00:35:37.660
financing at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, Americanfinancing.net.
00:35:45.500
American financing, NMLS 1-82334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
00:35:57.680
You know, Joe Biden, he had some funny moments yesterday in the press conference, didn't
00:36:09.540
Could we please play the GOP voter suppression?
00:36:13.480
Uh, this is from the press conference yesterday.
00:36:18.380
What I'm worried about is how un-American this whole initiative is.
00:36:27.340
Deciding in some states that you cannot bring water to people standing in line waiting to
00:36:36.160
Deciding that you're going to end voting at five o'clock when working people are just
00:36:42.940
Deciding that there will be no absentee ballots under the most rigid circumstances?
00:37:10.500
...that we'll be able to stop this because it is the most...
00:37:24.180
He says this makes Jim Crow look like Jim Eagle.
00:37:31.960
After that happened, by the way, I can tell you exactly...
00:37:35.760
I googled Jim Eagle to see if it was a person I wasn't familiar with.
00:37:40.100
I was like, wait, was there some other bigger racist named Jim Eagle?
00:37:44.940
I legitimately had no idea what he was talking about.
00:37:49.520
Looking online, I guess he was trying to say that an eagle is a larger bird than a crow.
00:38:01.480
Secondly, it's a very weird way of talking about things.
00:38:04.480
Thirdly, the eagle is the symbol of our country.
00:38:07.060
So it's weird to make that the ultra-racist example.
00:38:11.060
But see, it would make sense if you're like, it makes Frankenstein look like Stu Breguier.
00:38:17.500
You'd at least go, okay, well, he's worse somehow or another than Frankenstein.
00:38:28.060
This is the worst joke, but it also works on zero levels.
00:38:36.660
This is like one of his weird malarkey moments that, like, is somewhere in, like, 1907, someone
00:38:44.140
I did think that this is possibly a grandpa joke.
00:38:57.120
Maybe at some point, people in the old-time movies, you know, they would...
00:39:05.260
And he said, Eagle, Jim Eagle, is better than Jim Crow.
00:39:17.060
Maybe, maybe in those old film newsreels, that would have been good.
00:39:22.480
So, and again, what was the thing he was trying to say that they were trying to ban water?
00:39:36.400
It says that you can't give money or gifts, including but not limited to food or drink,
00:39:44.000
Such giveaways ban within 150 feet of a building.
00:39:46.600
So, it's not like somebody is trying to pass out with, you know, because they need water.
00:39:55.300
It's like you can't have a barbecue and hand out, you know, hot dogs and hamburgers and sodas
00:40:04.700
You can do that 150 feet away, but you can't do it and bring things to people in line.
00:40:12.480
And, like, right, like, and they, you can set up a, like, a self-serve thing.
00:40:17.840
You just can't have people walking out and giving you water.
00:40:25.820
You could, you could have other ways of doing it, but they just don't want people giving out
00:40:31.520
Look, they're on the ground begging for water, and Jim Eagle comes to kick them repeatedly
00:40:38.440
in the stomach, all because of those nasty Republicans.
00:40:43.460
This is not an effort to stop people from voting.
00:41:02.260
Rough Greens is something I'm feeding Uno, and he loves it, just loves it.
00:41:09.800
It's something you put onto the dog food, and it changes him.
00:41:13.780
My dog was easy from the very beginning because he hated eating so much, and I realized,
00:41:24.320
Now, he's, I mean, he's looking at the Rough Green bag every day like, okay, when, when,
00:41:30.620
Easy for my dog, your dog may not eat it, this supplement, so they don't want you to have
00:41:36.100
to spend any money on trying it out for your dog just to see if he'll eat it.

00:42:28.880
Yes, I have been waiting since about two o'clock yesterday afternoon for this moment.
00:42:35.500
The press conference, the, the president's first press conference of his presidency was yesterday.
00:42:42.600
And Bill O'Reilly is here to talk about it in 60 seconds.
00:42:53.580
You know, honestly, every time I go to sleep at night, I think about you and I think about
00:42:58.680
people who say to me all the time, do you actually, yes, I actually use the products
00:43:11.880
I sleep with my pillow every single night and it is strangely my favorite pillow.
00:43:17.860
And I say strangely because it would not be something I would pick up and buy at the store
00:43:26.540
It's got this, I don't even know how it's again, it's witchcraft.
00:43:29.960
I don't know how they make it, but you put your fist through both ends and it fluffs up
00:43:35.400
and then you don't have to do it again all night.
00:43:38.620
It's weird and I wouldn't think I love it, but I do.
00:43:43.440
It is the pillow under my head every single night.
00:43:47.160

00:44:28.820
We're going to have to, uh, we're going to have to cut our time short today, uh, because
00:44:32.560
we're just so jam packed with things to do and I, but I, I want to get through all the
00:44:38.140
Let's start with the president's press conference.
00:44:42.780
First of all, I think you should take a listener poll on whether you should cut me short.
00:44:47.860
I think there's going to be a wide spread outrage about that.
00:45:12.020
I roam around and around and around, unquote Dion.
00:45:16.820
That is, it is amazing how bad it was yesterday.
00:45:22.800
Well, I'm nicknaming president Biden, uh, the wanderer because he, uh, gets up there and
00:45:32.140
He ruminates word of the day, ruminates for stew.
00:45:34.820
Um, but the problem is that many times when he's ruminating and wandering, he forgets
00:45:49.160
Um, and we're having a discussion about the presidential press conference.
00:45:52.460
I'm making some wise guy comments, but, um, you know, if I forget my train of thought,
00:45:59.340
then the whole thing crashes, he's not able to bring it back.
00:46:09.040
And the other thing that was troubling yesterday is that he misstated facts.
00:46:16.760
Now I got a whole bunch of mail here in my lap from billoreilly.com viewers.
00:46:21.000
Cause we do TV every night, as you know, and they always lying.
00:46:34.740
There's, this is from the same press conference, literally 60 seconds apart from each other.
00:46:42.400
I still think the majority of the American people don't like the fact that we are now ranked
00:46:55.180
We have somewhere, uh, in terms of infrastructure, we have, we ranked 13th globally in infrastructure.
00:47:09.840
It just whipped right in 30 seconds up from 85 to 13.
00:47:14.940
So you are agreeing with me back that he doesn't know what he's saying.
00:47:28.760
There is a significant increase in the number of people coming to the border in the winter
00:47:46.580
The truth is that between February 20th, that's Trump in 2020 and February, 2021, border patrol
00:48:04.480
So you get the president of the United States looking into the camera going, hey, you know,
00:48:24.860
You would think that the press corps would know that this was fallacious.
00:48:33.300
And because they come armed with the facts, the press corps does, you know, everybody knows
00:48:41.860
Not one challenge to that be, and not one stat quoted by the nine reporters who were called
00:48:50.500
See, you interview a president in a fact-based way.
00:48:53.980
You don't give them room to run like, uh, Yamachi, uh, Alcindor.
00:49:02.500
I mean, she should, she should be the PBS correspondent and Biden spokesperson.
00:49:20.400
So, um, it, but it's disturbing for me as an American, not just as a journalist.
00:49:27.580
To see the president of the United States and Biden believes it.
00:49:31.200
That's, and people don't believe me when I tell you this, he believes there's no problem
00:49:40.540
You've said this for the last couple of weeks that you think he is so out of touch that he
00:49:54.040
Well, but he's had a good, I mean, he's had a good long run.
00:49:58.300
Could you please put Biden and played Biden enter the Senate?
00:50:08.060
With regard to the filibuster, I believe we should go back to a position of the filibuster
00:50:12.960
that existed just when I came to the United States Senate 120 years ago.
00:50:31.120
He was trying to be funny, but he didn't pause and smile because he doesn't know what
00:50:38.720
Look, he came in with 150 pages of notes, giant crayon written notes, giant notes.
00:50:51.740
Have you ever seen in a press conference, Wallace said last night, who's not a, you know,
00:51:02.300
He came out and said, this is the same Chris Wallace that said that Biden gave the greatest
00:51:09.720
So he came out and he said last night, I covered Reagan and I've never seen a president come
00:51:17.180
out with talking point notes like Joe Biden did.
00:51:34.000
Hey, I got a whole bunch of notes here because I don't want to screw up.
00:51:43.720
So you're going to be precise and read off the page because he knew the China question
00:51:47.800
And so the China question comes, he picked, he looks down, he reads the whole answer and
00:51:53.080
But, but this, I just want to make one more point because this is clearly, clearly should
00:52:01.500
And this was the absolute nadir, third word of the day, of the press conference.
00:52:09.840
He looks into the camera, the president of the United States says, you know what?
00:52:16.520
And remember, we have hundreds of thousands of foreign nationals pouring into the United
00:52:25.800
I'm going to send vice president Harris down to central America with $700 million and get
00:52:33.880
to the root causes of why the people are coming here.
00:52:37.980
I'm going, does anyone on earth think that this is going to solve the problem?
00:52:45.060
Does anyone on earth not know why millions of people in third world countries want to live
00:52:53.420
Does anyone not know that we have to spend $700 million on root causes?
00:53:01.840
If you live in Honduras, you don't have anything.
00:53:09.060
If you come here, you could work hard and build a good life.
00:53:14.700
We don't need Kamala Harris to go down there and tell us that you are not going to solve
00:53:20.280
a problem that's been underway since the Aztecs.
00:53:42.620
We're going to try to convince him to open up and actually say what's on his mind.
00:53:46.380
Are you sure you want to cut me off at the bottom of the hour back?
00:53:53.660
If you could get out of pain, if you could get out of pain, and so many people have debilitating
00:54:07.440
Well, let me tell you about the one day out of pain.
00:54:13.920
Once we started taking Relief Factor, and it is a blessing like you can't believe.
00:54:26.800
With Relief Factor, they'll tell you the truth.
00:54:29.560
70% of the people who try it go on to order more because it works for them.
00:54:34.560
But that's why they put a three-week trial pack together.
00:54:37.260
Because within the first three weeks, you pretty much know, is this going to work for me or not?
00:54:51.520
Just start piling them up day after day after day after day with Relief Factor.
00:55:01.360
That's all it costs you, $19.95, to find out if you can get out of pain.
00:55:30.340
Bill, tell me how you think we're moving on gun control.
00:55:37.880
Well, it's not going to be an issue that's resolved because the Second Amendment is fairly clear and the Supreme Court, as comprised, is not going to ban, allow any bans or confiscation or anything like that.
00:55:56.900
So, all the people who want their guns and love the guns and that kind of thing, you don't have to worry, right?
00:56:05.080
But what could happen is you could have public safety compromises.
00:56:10.320
For example, if you buy an AR, then you would register the AR so that people would know if it's stolen, if you are a lunatic all of a sudden, that you have a heavy weapon in your house.
00:56:24.220
I don't think that's unreasonable, but you're never going to get it unless the progressive left, the Democratic Party, compromises on gun crimes themselves.
00:56:37.140
See, the stats are that mass murder, like in Colorado and Atlanta, comprise 0.02% of all gun homicides.
00:56:51.340
And that comes from a University of California Davis study.
00:56:56.920
So, this is not the essential problem of gun violence in America.
00:57:02.180
The problem is criminals selling narcotics or holding up stores using guns.
00:57:15.920
But the progressive left doesn't want to do anything about that.
00:57:20.120
In fact, they are letting gun criminals out of jail in Chicago and New York City.
00:57:27.100
Which is why, Bill, quite honestly, I don't buy into your first theory, because I believe you on the second.
00:57:36.680
Your first theory is that you don't have anything to worry about.
00:57:55.340
But as soon as they do, and Biden signs it, there'll be a federal court challenge, and it'll be stayed, and the Supreme Court will hear it.
00:58:18.340
Beck, as you know, the court is much different now than it was back then.
00:58:24.720
And the country is so polarized now, way more than it was back then.
00:58:36.860
Now, Republicans don't want any part of the progressive central government telling them what they can and can't do.
00:58:46.840
There's not one traditional conservative that wants the federal government to have more power.
00:58:53.860
So, we're living in a totally different country now.
00:58:59.540
Last night, here's what Joe Biden said about the filibuster.
00:59:08.200
50 votes so that the Vice President of the United States can break the tie, or I get 51 votes without her.
00:59:18.840
I have never been particularly poor at calculating how to get things done in the United States Senate.
00:59:23.920
So, the best way to get something done, if you hold near and dear to you that you like to be able to, anyway, we're ready to get a lot done.
00:59:39.940
And if we have to, if there's complete lockdown and chaos as a consequence of the filibuster, then we'll have to go beyond what I'm talking about.
00:59:49.820
Well, he means that he's going to do what he's told to do.
00:59:54.760
So, if they tell him, they being Susan Rice and McClain, Ron Klain, the Chief of Staff, they tell him, you know, Mr. President, we've got to really knock the filibuster out.
01:00:09.940
And, yeah, well, I mean, he's going to do what he's told to do.
01:00:17.340
This is a guy who is in the White House, who is absolutely incapable of making an independent decision.
01:00:34.780
And I'll tell you what, next year, 2022, if Americans don't wise up, and it's not the Republican Party is so great.
01:00:51.040
These progressive left people are dangerous to your freedom, to your family.

Normally on Friday, we continue with Bill O'Reilly, and that's always entertaining and important.
01:05:12.940
However, there is something that is happening in the podcast that has been downloaded yesterday
01:05:22.660
It will be available for everyone tomorrow, wherever you get your podcast, but I urge you
01:05:30.820
Now, this is not something that is going to be mainstream, and the reason why is because
01:05:37.420
this is kind of like when I talk about Woodrow Wilson.
01:05:39.960
Now, everybody, and it might have been you, at one point, if you're a longtime listener
01:05:45.760
of mine, you'd go, why is this guy continually talking about Woodrow Wilson?
01:05:52.280
And then, all of a sudden, you got it, and you were like, oh my gosh, that's so important
01:05:59.260
Now I understand the progressive movement, right?
01:06:01.980
They are now saying that they are looking for right-wing extremists, and the media and everybody
01:06:11.960
else is saying that they're Christians, that they're white supremacists, etc., etc., and
01:06:22.080
However, what I know that you most likely don't know is that there is a global movement
01:06:30.880
that is now here in America, and I've been warning about it for, how long, Stu?
01:06:41.460
And it has fallen on deaf ears, and I'm begging you, please listen to this podcast.
01:06:47.480
This is going to play a role, and it will be a very dangerous road.
01:06:56.380
It is capital T traditionalism, and if you've ever heard me talk about Alexander Dugan, this
01:07:04.800
is what he is pushing, and it is happening in Europe, and it is now here in America.
01:07:09.920
There are three leaders, global leaders of this movement.
01:07:18.060
One, I don't think really affects us because all of his influence is in South America.
01:07:25.100
Some reason or another, he's decided to move here to America, but he still is influential
01:07:33.720
The other one is very involved here, and you will know the name.
01:07:47.260
If the average person was asked to define what a traditionalist is, I might define myself
01:08:02.460
I believe in God and mom and apple pie and Chevrolet, but that's not what we're talking
01:08:12.860
Everything that you just described, I think, could be labeled traditionalist with a lower
01:08:18.560
That's the only little bit of help that we get here in identifying what this is.
01:08:23.960
When we talk about an uppercase T traditionalism, we're talking about a very, very small spiritual
01:08:30.960
and eventually political movement that really comes into existence in the early 1900s.
01:08:37.660
Yes, they might share with you a belief that things used to be better or that maybe the
01:08:44.580
principles that we should live our lives through today and which we should hold to in the future
01:08:51.020
were established in the past and therefore that we should be critical of the notion of
01:08:57.500
But they wrap all of that in something far more arcane and esoteric and they wrap it all
01:09:05.440
in a sort of worship of the past and also a belief that where we are headed right now
01:09:12.620
is going to lead us to destruction and that that destruction is good and necessary.
01:09:17.100
And Dugan describes this as, and we'll get into who Alexander Dugan is in a little while,
01:09:22.880
but I don't know if this is the way the American traditionalist, and we'll explain what that
01:09:29.140
means here in a minute, Dugan describes this as the apocalypse or the end of the world as
01:09:38.020
described biblically, but they're working to bring it on because it's good.
01:09:46.760
And that's the way it is with traditionalists all around the world.
01:09:56.400
So maybe right here is where we start to see a distinction between, let's say, a conservative
01:10:00.540
Christian and one of these capital T traditionalists.
01:10:03.360
So the way, let's say, in the apocalypse that you would hear about in the Bible, in that biblical
01:10:10.720
tradition, it tends to be followed by some sort of heavenly utopia.
01:10:21.020
The traditionalists instead see an earthly apocalypse as being the prelude to an earthly utopia.
01:10:28.240
And it's in this, that might seem like a small difference there, but what that means-
01:10:39.480
No, they are talking about human society, secular, political, worldly, material society returning
01:10:47.320
And again, that might seem like a small difference, but it means that destruction can become the
01:10:57.980
This is, it's, it's heady stuff, but it is critically important.
01:11:08.040
The podcast is with Benjamin Teitelbaum and he is a guy, I swear to you, he's a, he's a
01:11:19.520
And he also, I don't think he agrees with me on, you know, all of the policies, but we
01:11:26.140
agree on principles and he is not crazy, nor is he wrong.
01:11:33.360
And, uh, when I found him months ago, I, I was like, you're my brother, man.
01:11:40.480
I feel like I found a brother because there's only the two of us that are ringing this bell
01:11:51.800
And it is critical that you understand because as he says in this, this is not a biblical apocalypse.
01:12:05.820
They believe that there was this great spirituality.
01:12:12.780
We're talking about, you know, the, uh, the, uh, druids and, and things like this, that there
01:12:19.940
was this, this great, uh, understanding of spiritualism in the time of the Vikings, et cetera,
01:12:26.520
And the only place that still has this, see if this sounds familiar to you, Stu, the
01:12:31.680
only place that really still kind of has this is India.
01:12:38.800
They think of still this original people, the original people, they left India and they
01:12:48.600
They, they, they became the Vikings and all of the, all of the Tesseract and all of that
01:13:04.400
Who else centered their entire movement on this?
01:13:11.800
Everyone thinks that the Nazis were Christians.
01:13:18.340
They were at, they believed in this kind of stuff.
01:13:22.480
And what this movement is doing is infiltrating in our churches and it is traditionalism.
01:13:31.260
Look who, who's your, for instance, in Russia, who's the biggest defender of the Orthodox church
01:13:41.800
Putin, Putin, who's the one standing up against, um, uh, you know, lesbian marriage, Putin, who's
01:13:51.060
the one standing up against transgenderism, Putin, how's he doing it?
01:13:58.920
He images himself as the defender of the church.
01:14:04.040
This is in Brazil and South America, and it is in here in America, in our politics.
01:14:15.660
And it is a stealth foreign body that conservatives, if you don't pay attention, you will get swept up and you will stand with people that you think are on your side because we're against big state.
01:14:36.600
We, we, we think the whole thing should just be shut down and rebooted, restarted.
01:14:46.920
And if you don't know this, chances are you could go down the road and you will be on the wrong side.
01:15:20.140
I was very, I was very, I was very, I didn't like that you guys out of that show, but, uh, you know, who the leader is here in America.
01:15:26.000
Uh, and, uh, I intentionally don't say who the leader is, uh, until about a half hour or so into it, because I need you to understand it first.
01:15:36.240
And when you, by the way, it's not Donald Trump, uh, when you, when you hear, uh, who the leader of this is and who is, who sat with this guy on record and talked about it in detail and, and had no problem hiding any of it.
01:15:58.160
It should, it will show you how, uh, deep this already is in America and you are going to be blamed for all kinds of things.
01:16:12.760
If you don't cut this out, if you have an, I'm telling you, American churches have already taken financing from these people because they, they don't know the difference.
01:16:28.960
Now, this is not what the left is talking about.
01:16:45.660
What you do with it is up to you, but, uh, you need to watch this.
01:16:53.740
You need to understand this and take it for more than just the podcast.
01:16:59.140
Do your own homework after and do everything you can to make sure that those around you who believe in small government and the constitution, the people involved with this do not believe in the enlightenment.
01:17:21.060
That's why this is traditionally not a right movement in America, but they are piggybacking onto it like a leech.

When you go with real estate agents, uh, I trust.com.
01:18:42.760
Um, you, uh, might think you're just getting a real estate agent, but guess again, what you're really getting is the agent plus an entire team of experts at his or her fingertips.
01:18:53.040
If you haven't bought or sold a home in a while, take it from me, you're going to need it right now.
01:18:58.280
It could be impossible to sell your home or impossible to know what the right price is because they're selling so fast.
01:19:06.000
Then if you're selling a home and it's selling fast in your area, what are you replacing that home with?
01:19:12.780
Our agents are full time and they are the people that don't moonlight as real estate.
01:19:18.540
These are the people that are the experts in your area.
01:19:21.820
They know precisely what you need to do to have a successful sale or a successful purchase or both.
01:19:28.180
And you can get one real estate agent in one part of the country, another real estate agent in the other part.
01:19:33.880
If you're having to take care of your mom or dad's, uh, estate and you got to sell the house or whatever, and you're not living where they lived, we can help you real estate agents.
01:19:56.720
Let's go to cut one here from Biden's press conference yesterday.
01:20:10.440
Mr. Vice President, as you know, the AFT represent teachers, paraprofessionals.
01:20:25.240
Are you ready for the press conference tomorrow, sir?
01:20:27.580
Are you ready for the press conference tomorrow?
01:20:40.200
I think it's time for our friends in the press to leave, though.
01:20:44.800
Are you ready to say the board is for the children in the board of facilities?
01:20:50.380
And I'm happy to take questions if that's what I'm supposed to do, Nance, whatever you
01:21:23.300
They're like that what press conference 24 hours before the press conference.
01:21:33.980
This president, unfortunately, is not up to this.
01:21:42.040
Staying healthy is really tough, especially if you're like me and you have a sweet tooth.
01:22:00.540
Because that is the case with absolutely everything.
01:22:07.720
They're low in calories, low in carbs, high in protein.
01:22:16.160
Caramel brownie, cookies and cream, raspberry, mint brownie.
01:22:32.180
And unlike any other healthy bar I've ever tasted.
01:23:20.320
is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:23:38.240
We have a great hour coming up for you in just a second.
01:23:45.980
Sponsoring this half hour with limited commercial interruption.
01:23:54.840
if you're listening to us, let me just do this.
01:23:58.320
This thing is, did you check how many 144 ounces is?
01:24:14.160
This is nine pounds of gold, solid gold, from 1857.
01:24:24.740
And it was going to buy some land in the Americas.
01:24:30.000
And it sunk just off the coast of North Carolina.
01:24:35.700
And for a century, it was on the bottom of the ocean, 7,200 feet below the surface.
01:24:46.520
And Goldline has acquired the rights to sell these gold ingots, if you will, to the public.
01:24:56.500
And that is really important because it's a historic item.
01:25:16.700
Ask them why I buy gold and how I buy gold and why I buy it that way.
01:25:20.980
When you get them on the phone, you can call them at 866-GOLDLINE.
01:25:46.760
We have Dr. Scott Atlas on the phone with us now.
01:25:54.740
And he has just written The Last Word, the Stanford Review.
01:26:00.760
And we wanted to get the last word from him on coronavirus.
01:26:04.480
He is, if you don't know, he kind of became the anti-Fausci in a way.
01:26:09.620
And said, yeah, maybe we don't have this one right.
01:26:19.980
So let's look back now at what we've done, what we learned, and where we are.
01:26:30.640
Well, what we've learned, first of all, there's a set of things we learned about the virus that we have known for months, by the way.
01:26:41.080
And that is that it's really not risky for the overwhelming majority of people.
01:26:47.100
But for elderly, high-risk people, it's extremely dangerous and significantly worse than the flu.
01:26:56.020
The other things that we've learned is that we know how to protect these people.
01:27:00.880
We should have protected them from the beginning.
01:27:05.440
Instead, the recommendation was to lock everybody down and somehow indirectly protect them.
01:27:11.200
And what we learned was that was a gross failure.
01:27:14.160
Hundreds of thousands of Americans died, many of whom were in the high risk.
01:27:19.800
Hundreds of thousands, in fact, were in the high-risk category, almost all of them.
01:27:23.680
But a lot of them, 40% or something, were in nursing homes, which was the obvious target.
01:27:29.520
Instead of protecting those people, the people that were in charge of implementing policy did these lockdowns.
01:27:37.440
Almost the entire country, almost every governor, did lockdowns.
01:27:41.900
And those were the policies that were recommended by the people without, not me, but by the other people on the task force.
01:27:49.960
So the people that are saying somehow there was a bad result that advocated for the lockdowns are criticizing what was implemented that they recommended.
01:28:00.840
They criticized people like me who decided and knew that the lockdowns were going to be a disastrous, harmful way to pursue policy.
01:28:12.240
And they criticized those of us who criticized that as if their policies were not implemented.
01:28:20.680
That means the policies advocated by the people like Dr. Fauci, Dr. Birx, and all the governors implemented the lockdowns.
01:28:29.000
And they were proven to be not just ineffective at stopping the virus, but they were extraordinarily harmful.
01:28:38.000
And, you know, we can see that by looking all over the world, as well as our internal comparisons.
01:28:42.500
So if you want me to talk more about, well, I want to I want to actually go back towards the beginning of something you said when you said that we found out that it's not as deadly except for older people.
01:28:56.720
You know, we've had these things before in the past.
01:28:59.820
We've we've we've had polio was a was a big one and we didn't do this kind of a lockdown.
01:29:08.040
Can you find anything in history that you would compare covid with that we've seen in the past and didn't destroy our economy and and and lock everybody up?
01:29:20.900
Well, there were previous pandemics that were very deadly, including pandemics that were more deadly to younger, healthier people.
01:29:31.420
It was not where there's never been a lockdown like this before and never in the and it's obvious why.
01:29:38.500
In fact, the classic pandemic preparation paper, I think, was written in something like 2009.
01:29:43.900
2009, I may be wrong about that, but that that paper that is referred to as the classic way to think about these management of something like a pandemic said very explicitly that we do not lock down because of the harms of the lockdown,
01:29:59.980
because of the inability of human beings to function in a healthy way with a lockdown.
01:30:07.280
And it was extremely unadvisable to do such a thing.
01:30:11.360
And so it's never been done and it will never hopefully be done again, although I'm wary of that.
01:30:18.160
Yeah, if I if I can say something that I didn't really finish with, which is you asked me what we learned.
01:30:24.240
And I wrote this in that paper, the last word, because what we really learned were two shocking things.
01:30:31.100
I'm afraid we learned was the massive power of the government.
01:30:36.400
And we never, I don't think, consciously realized that the government could shut down society, close your jobs, close your businesses, close your schools, quarantine you inside your home, stop you from seeing your own family.
01:30:52.960
We never understood that kind of power existed.
01:30:55.640
And the second part that we learned that shocked me even more as an American was that people were going to just say OK to that.
01:31:04.980
Yeah, that's that's that passive response, that acquiescence to such an extraordinary draconian restriction on your own personal liberty.
01:31:15.960
It was a shock to me that people went along with that, as they have and continue to do.
01:31:20.920
Is it because it came so slowly because everybody was willing to do it, you know, for 15 days and then we even understood, well, we're going to wait until Easter.
01:31:31.420
But then after Easter, it was kind of like, wait a minute, wait a minute, what, what, what?
01:31:39.500
And it allowed those first two kind of allowed people to position anyone who was against it as somebody who wanted grandma to be dead.
01:31:51.260
Yeah, I mean, it's it's it's sort of looking back on it, trying to figure out how this has evolved into what we have today, which is, by the way, in my opinion, a completely and wholly damaged American psyche that will potentially never come back.
01:32:09.280
I hate to be cynical like that, but I I have my doubts.
01:32:19.000
The fear that was invoked by the completely inappropriate pronouncements of the World Health Organization at the time that started this whole thing about this fatality rate that, of course, I was afraid to this extraordinary fatality rate that was probably 50 times what it really is.
01:32:37.500
And the idea that everyone, the calculations of the models that were originally originally in the UK, that assumed that everyone was at equal risk.
01:32:49.540
OK, which, again, is a massive hypothetical error.
01:32:54.000
And that kind of fear and was, of course, it shows you what the impact of fear is on human beings.
01:33:03.620
But then what happened was the media and there's some fascinating data about this, particularly the American media, recklessly, irresponsibly created fear.
01:33:17.580
They they and I don't know if it was because or only because of the election year.
01:33:22.380
I think a lot of it probably was politically motivated in the beginning.
01:33:26.760
But I think at this point, people over several months and by the time I got to Washington and I didn't get there till end of July, beginning of August.
01:33:41.060
The fear was not going to be overcome when no matter who won the election.
01:33:47.000
And I and I actually people said, oh, well, when the president Biden wins there, this will be over.
01:33:57.400
It's fear and the fear mongering by the media, which is really extraordinarily harmful.
01:34:05.900
It is extraordinary how different parts of the country reacted to this people in New York.
01:34:20.960
We're not so afraid of it where we have a healthy fear of it and we just take precautions.
01:34:30.980
You go into California, you go into New York or better yet, they come here.
01:34:36.360
They just almost don't even know how to be in society anymore.
01:34:47.860
And, you know, what's what's extraordinary is is the fear.
01:34:54.620
What's extraordinary is a complete lack of critical thinking.
01:34:58.140
There's been a gross, gross distortion of the data by the people who are the faces of the
01:35:08.060
But worse than that, if there has been a direct spreading of pseudoscience and direct harm to
01:35:16.180
the public and we've seen it time and time again, literally pseudoscience.
01:35:21.580
Yet they lash out at those of us who do analyze it correctly and claim we are using pseudoscience,
01:35:27.280
including my friends at Stanford, who don't understand that, for instance, the six foot rule
01:35:35.360
that we have been living by religiously was pseudoscience.
01:35:42.060
The World Health Organization used three feet from the beginning, as did many countries,
01:35:47.240
Austria, Finland, Sweden, China, Singapore, I can go on and on.
01:35:51.820
There's no problem with using three feet, even and not saying three feet, the correct
01:35:57.060
number, but it's an arbitrary designation to say six feet.
01:36:00.640
And now that we know it's wrong, where is the uproar?
01:36:06.140
And the more importantly, instant change of everything to three feet.
01:36:14.040
I think this is a serious example of people having bought into something no more, even
01:36:19.760
when it's proven wrong, they are still wedded to it.
01:36:23.340
And it's relevant because that that is a big difference between a functioning business or
01:36:28.740
functioning restaurant, a functioning school and not three feet is a very different number
01:36:36.020
Well, I will tell you this also, you can't expect outrage when people will go to a restaurant
01:36:42.520
and have to wear a mask while walking to the table, but then you can take the mask off while
01:36:50.100
That is the most I mean, that is almost magic in its thinking.
01:36:59.120
It's sorry to interrupt, but it's completely irrational.
01:37:04.140
Exposure does not happen when you're walking past somebody.
01:37:08.460
The CDC even defines exposure as sitting in some being in someone's personal space for
01:37:17.780
The only time you're going to be exposed in a restaurant is when you're sitting at the
01:37:23.480
You're not going to be exposed by walking to your table.
01:37:26.300
Yet this is the sort of topsy turvy Alice in Wonderland logic that we use here in this
01:37:35.280
I can't even emphasize enough how irrational the behavior is.
01:37:40.880
I mean, the biggest example is how we double down on stringent requirements in the low risk
01:37:58.020
That's where we're not even opening the schools in many parts of the country or even colleges.
01:38:03.360
It's a low risk environment compared to the community.
01:38:05.980
It's healthy, younger people for the most part.
01:38:08.340
Of course, the high risk people, they can be protected.
01:38:12.280
But the low risk environments don't need mass testing every single day, closure, et cetera.
01:38:22.120
There has never been significant outbreaks of cases on airplanes.
01:38:27.640
There have been cases, but the data on airplanes is not showing that it's a high risk environment.
01:38:33.200
Yet the airplanes were told, I just flew somewhere.
01:38:39.880
You're told more than a dozen times to put your mask on in between bites, in between sips.
01:38:45.280
Meantime, the air filtration system on an airplane is much more effective than anywhere else.
01:38:50.540
But so schools, low risk environments, we have the most stringent requirements.
01:38:54.820
This is the complete lack of rational thought going on.
01:38:58.980
And again, it's an indication of a severely damaged psyche.
01:39:03.560
You walk around outside in California, outside, and you'll see young people, young healthy people,
01:39:09.480
who are extremely low risk to begin with, wearing a mask, alone, riding their bicycle, in their car, alone, wearing a mask.
01:39:22.880
It's like carrying a magic quarter inside your pocket.
01:39:30.600
And then I want to come back and talk to you about what the former director of the CDC has just said about this.
01:39:37.480
And he's going to be called, you know, a witch for saying it.
01:39:49.140
Nobody's a big fan of paying more to fix your car than what your car is even worth.
01:39:53.760
Call me old fashioned, but that's the way I am.
01:39:56.380
If you got a car, it's probably one of the more expensive things that you own.
01:40:01.720
And it is certainly one of the most vital things for your ability to live your everyday life.
01:40:06.400
So it's incredibly important that you can take care of it.
01:40:09.780
If something breaks down, do you have all the money to repair a chip that has gone down?
01:40:17.100
Well, have have car shield take care of all of it.
01:40:22.880
Car shield with car shield taking cover, taking care of covered repairs is really simple.
01:40:29.560
They have customizable, affordable plans that will keep you on the road.
01:40:35.360
Now, there may be a deductible that may apply, but I'm telling you, you a you get to design the coverage yourself with them.
01:40:44.380
Uh, and, uh, it's a lot different than having to pay for a chip.
01:40:51.120
Uh, they also have roadside assistance 24 seven.
01:40:54.860
They write the check to the repair shop or to the dealership.
01:41:22.840
Scott, let me ask you, uh, about what the former director of the CDC has just come out and said.
01:41:28.600
And that is, he believes that this did come from, uh, the, uh, from the, uh, uh, laboratory in China that it escaped.
01:41:39.800
It wasn't intentionally set, but it did come from that laboratory in Wuhan.
01:41:51.160
Redfield's statement or at least the interpretation of the statement.
01:42:01.400
And I think he said, we'll see also, I agree with him, uh, that the most likely scenario is that it came out of the lab.
01:42:10.780
It does not mean, uh, necessarily that it was created in a lab or that it was intentionally let out from a lab.
01:42:19.100
But we can't even, uh, that's, we can't even say that likely scenario.
01:42:23.120
We can't even say that anymore without being called conspiracy theorists.
01:42:32.240
I don't think that the Chinese went and, uh, made this virus and then intentionally released it.
01:42:42.820
And you, I mean, what happened to science in the last year?
01:42:46.820
Yeah, I think, uh, this is a, you know, there's a couple things embedded in your question.
01:42:51.660
Um, science has become, uh, I think science and expertise have, have been destroyed.
01:43:03.500
There's certainly a massive amount of politicization of science.
01:43:07.320
The best journals in the world, uh, New England journal, Lancet, science, nature, uh, journal of the AMA have become completely politicized, editorialized, and in fact have published, you know,
01:43:25.240
Uh, the second part of that is that the, the, uh, undermining of the term expert has been really destructive.
01:43:33.660
I think because, uh, with this sort of censorship, this outrage, this, uh, failure for people to say they were grossly wrong and instead lash out and defame people like me who were correct.
01:43:47.420
And I was correct over and over again about every single thing, uh, as were others, uh, those people who have, uh, continued to sort of twist and distort my words and others have undermined the entire process of seeking the truth that we need to solve crises like this.
01:44:07.260
And so that kind of heavy handed rebuking, uh, censorship, bullying, uh, and all these official and unofficial statements emanating out of universities, uh, including my own, I really have been harmful because what happens is you get the second part of that.
01:44:27.360
Dr. Scott Atlas, the last word, find it at stanfordreview.org.
01:44:32.040
Sorry, I hate network breaks where I don't have any choice.
01:44:36.940
Um, let me tell you a little bit about rec tech.
01:44:40.120
It is going to be beautiful, uh, here in Texas, uh, this weekend and I will be cooking on my rec tech.
01:44:50.140
Now, this is the time of the year that I will actually stay outside, but I don't have to do any of the work.
01:44:59.140
There is no, there's, I don't know how to do it.
01:45:06.680
That is the biggest thing that the rec, the rec tech has brought into my life is I don't burn really good food anymore because it does everything, uh, that I need it to do it.
01:45:22.180
You know, it's like, you gotta be smarter than the door.
01:45:24.480
Yeah, that's an insult, but you gotta be smarter than rec tech.
01:45:30.460
It's smarter than me and it has smart grill technology and it will tell you when everything is ready to go.
01:45:36.240
All you have to do is put it on, turn it on and, uh, do what it says.

01:46:11.100
Do you remember, do you remember when we, uh, when we, when we went back to, uh, I want to talk about the Suez canal.
01:46:25.940
Uh, but I want to go back to a time when we were talking about the USS Fitzgerald.
01:46:31.280
Uh, the USS Fitzgerald was a giant cargo ship and it was heading South away from Japan, about 64 miles off the coast.
01:46:41.580
And then, uh, another ship was heading Southeast, but at one 21 AM, it made a 90 degree turn and was heading.
01:46:53.240
It would have missed the Fitzgerald, but five minutes later, it turned again, this time back East directly towards the U S ship.
01:47:08.600
So the two collided at one o'clock in the morning, this is off the coast of, uh, I think Japan, this is a few years ago, a couple of years ago.
01:47:20.140
And if you look at what happened, the, uh, the crystal, the ACX crystal, which is the boat that rammed the U S Navy ship.
01:47:37.300
And it was clear that it was steering, but they weren't steering it.
01:47:42.880
And, uh, it, it was something the Navy was investigating is somebody hacking in to these ships to be able to just take over any ship and then use them as a ramming device.
01:47:56.620
The only reason why I bring this up is because what happened in the Suez canal, the Suez canal, in case you don't know, is super important for everybody's economy.
01:48:09.980
And it has been for a long time in world war two.
01:48:18.200
They put these giant lights on the Suez canal because the, not this again, not, not the Suez canal world war two story again.
01:48:30.880
Again, I don't think I've ever told it on the air.
01:48:32.720
I don't know if you've ever told it on the air, but, uh, you've told it to everyone in this building 54 times.
01:48:39.080
Hey, there was a big light in the Suez canal world war two.
01:48:45.660
I remember it or was listening to it at any point when you told it worse.
01:48:58.100
I know the reason I know the Suez canal light is because you have it in your office.
01:49:03.600
And that's why I tell the story because people go and they come in and they're like, what is that?
01:49:18.780
No, I want to show, I want to show people, people.
01:49:27.240
I'm walking down, I'm walking down the hallway now.
01:49:35.720
And, uh, first of all, you're not a pack rat at all.
01:49:38.360
I just want to make sure, just in the, in the hallway, this is, you've got dresses for
01:49:44.860
No, that's, that's, that's, it's Dorothy and the flying monkey outfit and the, sure
01:49:51.840
Then over here, we've got all the Star Wars stuff all over.
01:49:58.960
Have you seen, by the way, have you seen the C-3PO that just came in?
01:50:04.820
We, I guess we have some people from, here's it.
01:50:06.620
Oh, look, it's Abraham Lincoln's head in a box.
01:50:11.120
I'm trying to tell the story about the Suez Canal.
01:50:19.160
You keep him around, too, and no one understands it.
01:50:26.760
I can't believe you're making fun of me on this.
01:50:36.940
There's just a giant spotlight next to his polar bear, of course, obviously.
01:51:13.220
It was just something, um, that, you know, that I just, uh.
01:51:35.660
And you didn't listen to the, tell me about the magician.
01:51:48.500
It was so important because so much material goes through oil, everything.
01:51:55.460
If you lose the Suez Canal, you have to go all the way around Africa and it adds at least
01:52:04.160
And is he still out in the hallway just making fun of me?
01:52:13.100
Uh, so, uh, anyway, so everything goes through the Suez Canal.
01:52:19.340
I believe there is a chance that, uh, this ship might have been, uh, digitally hijacked.
01:52:37.320
Oh, this is like you looking in a mirror here, Glenn.
01:52:43.000
He's now in the lobby and, uh, showing the head of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
01:53:03.120
You're just in time to hear the Suez Canal spotlight story.
01:53:10.400
So that spotlight, they tried to confuse the, the, uh, uh, Germans.
01:53:16.400
I think it was the Germans that were, uh, trying to bomb the Suez Canal to stop the flow of oil,
01:53:22.440
uh, into, uh, into unoccupied Europe and, uh, Great Britain.
01:53:28.420
So they, uh, they put these giant spotlights down on the canal and then they hired a magician
01:53:33.660
to put some sort of spinner inside of those lights and those lights would come up onto the,
01:53:43.060
uh, planes and it wasn't just to, uh, spot the plane so you could shoot them down.
01:53:48.760
In that case, it was to disorient the pilots so they couldn't bomb the, uh, Suez Canal.
01:54:09.500
Now it's not to say that I haven't looked and spent years looking for the spinners.
01:54:15.760
Uh, but, uh, anyway, if you happen to have those Suez Canal spinners out there and you
01:54:23.340
I mean, now it's not because I didn't tell it well because he was involved, but that's
01:54:30.140
And that we went to a magician to save the Suez Canal.
01:54:35.140
Can we go back to a magician to save the Suez Canal now?
01:54:37.640
Gosh, I'd be like, I need some magician to save this stupid break in this show from
01:55:00.300
I'm curious if American financing can provide a loan to buy a spinner for the Suez Canal.
01:55:13.260
I mean, if you went to them with a, with a great credit score, they'd be like, you know
01:55:16.220
Here's, here's hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a light.
01:55:19.200
It would not be hundreds of thousands of dollars.
01:55:22.300
It would be cheap because nobody would know what it is.
01:55:24.400
It's like the rat that I have from Ian Fleming, a rat Ian.
01:55:30.140
You know, the rat story and you know, this is a, yeah, you know, that's a great piece
01:55:36.680
I don't know that I want to own the rat with the explosive story that everybody goes, huh?
01:55:41.680
But you don't have the rat and you could say, look, this is true history of this rat.
01:55:46.820
And they're like, I can't believe you have a rat in your office.
01:55:50.400
And then when you tell them the story, they're like, that is cool.
01:55:54.180
That is, it's a cool, if you're going to have an explosive rat, that's the one to have.
01:56:01.420
American financing can help you with your mortgage like they help Stu.
01:56:05.500
And I'm going to call them to make sure that they don't ever help him again.

In the coming months, they are bound to be interesting, to say the very least.
01:56:36.960
Now is the time to get a hold of your finances and make sure that you're ready for whatever
01:56:42.440

01:57:38.900
I mean, look, it was fun to make fun of you on the radio, but I was, I was ready to start
01:57:46.400
Well, I just think, I think people should consider the fact that there was just a moment where
01:57:50.220
on, if you're watching on blaze TV, you got to see your face side by side with a stay
01:57:57.520
And as we discussed how it looked like you were just looking into a mirror and I never
01:58:05.040
Were, were you, are you made of marshmallow or did you give birth to the marshmallow man?
01:58:12.860
And the decapitated, decapitated, uh, Abraham Lincoln head was a nice touch.
01:58:17.660
Uh, typical conservative racist would want to decapitate Abraham Lincoln.
01:58:30.580
Abraham Lincoln is decapitated head is living in a box in our studios.
01:58:34.720
So not on display, by the way, it's not, I mean, it's just, you know what it is.
01:58:50.640
Walt Disney was working on something with Abraham Lincoln, a robot of some sort.
01:58:57.540
And then this is, this is, this is, this is like a father and his son as the father
01:59:17.820
So an Amber, there's an Abraham Lincoln robot he was building, but it wasn't ready.
01:59:22.000
And, but they needed, it was almost ready to be shown on TV or live.
01:59:27.320
And Walt Disney needed to light the robot, like input lighting on it, but it wasn't ready.
01:59:32.980
So he took a styrofoam Abraham Lincoln head and put it on a broomstick so he could light
01:59:47.860
So you must remain 50 feet away from any artifact.
01:59:52.580
I want a restraining order from, from, from on you.
01:59:57.200
I gotta say that was better than I thought I'd do at the beginning of the story.
01:59:59.480
So, yes, that is the outlines of the story told very poorly.
02:00:07.900
I didn't say I was going to tell it well, but thank you for that.
02:00:11.300
But it is kind of a cool, you have a lot of these items around here and are these that
02:00:19.860
I always think of you as like a, uh, just a pack rat that just buys weird, weird things.
02:00:32.960
I mean, for instance, the Suez canal light that that's that, that is not the story of
02:00:38.540
That's the story of somebody thinking, how are we going to confuse the, uh, the Germans?
02:00:45.780
How are we going to get this canal to remain open and them not bomb any of the Suez canal?
02:00:52.780
Somebody thinking out of the box and going, have we called a magician?
02:01:00.620
And then the magician getting the call and going, yes, I think I can develop something
02:01:14.980
It's the individual coming up with something that has never been done before that happens
02:01:20.960
over and over and matter of his book, how innovation works.
02:01:25.280
That whole book is filled with the most important things in your life that are developed, not
02:01:29.480
by like some crazy expert, but by people just playing with things, tinkering with things
02:01:34.980
on their own and, you know, coming up with incredible things that have changed the world.
02:01:45.960
You know, when they talk about infrastructure investment, we don't invest in it.
02:01:52.440
What they're really talking about is investing your tax dollars into companies to have a public
02:02:00.880
private partnership so we can beat China on things.
02:02:04.660
We're way ahead of China on many things, on many things, most things, chips, the computer chips.
02:02:13.080
They are 10 years away from being able to make their own computer chips.
02:02:17.560
And the only reason why they're that close is because they had to steal our technology.
02:02:21.280
We don't need these public private partnerships.
02:02:30.040
The American people will and always have led the way and found the way to do the impossible.
02:02:43.380
It's the individual that matters, not the collective.
