00:03:43.400
you calling me mr beck i prefer dr beck but dr beck i mean i worked very hard for that uh yeah you
00:03:49.120
showed up at an event to get that title didn't you but it was in virginia and i wasn't living in virginia
00:03:54.320
at the time i had to fly i had to sit there and listen to speeches of people graduating that i
00:04:00.680
didn't really care because i didn't know i didn't go to school with them no and then i got to listen
00:04:05.040
to somebody going blah blah blah blah blah and he's a doctor and i'm like of course i am give me the
00:04:09.640
certificate so i can start doing some foot surgery you can do some doctoring right right exactly right
00:04:15.120
that's what you know what the most important thing to me in the world is glenn what is that uh licensing
00:04:20.120
licensing that's how you prove your value well as a doctor i'd have to agree with you right as a
00:04:27.080
kentucky colonel i would have to agree with you that's right you're also a colonel i'm a colonel
00:04:32.740
doctor doctor colonel i'm a colonel doctor i'm actually a reverend oh my gosh i am reverend dr
00:04:38.740
colonel beck i want that from from here on out that's how you address me not mr beck it's reverend
00:04:45.500
doctor colonel beck so if you call 888-727-BECK you don't have to put the reverend colonel dr
00:04:53.600
beck in the phone number no but you think it while you're dialing it you should think it and then when
00:04:58.220
you call up and and glenn answers and says uh you know bill you're on the air reverend colonel dr
00:05:04.000
beck how are you today yeah and that order too reverend got his first my the hard work i did on uh
00:05:10.680
my my doctorate and then a little bit of kentucky you know so it's reverend dr colonel or reverend
00:05:16.180
colonel doctor no it's reverend dr colonel okay okay you got it reverend dr colonel beck reverend
00:05:21.080
dr colonel beck this is from here on out in fact i might be changing glennbeck.com to that reverend
00:05:25.620
dr colonel beck.com someone's out there registering that right now probably someone from media matters
00:05:35.660
redirected all right uh so you know licensing is important and i think it's important i mean if
00:05:43.320
you're a hairdresser right god forbid you try to do anybody's hair without a license you know what i
00:05:50.740
mean if if you are if you are uh a painter of some sort god forbid you paint somebody's house without a
00:05:59.940
license right and i would throw another one in there uh let's just say you wanted to stay alive
00:06:04.780
yeah you have to have a license right right because you don't have the right to defend yourself
00:06:10.280
you have to make sure you have a license correct and that's where this is really important yes and
00:06:15.900
we learned this story in illinois yes uh recently where a woman uh-huh was in her car and was attacked
00:06:23.000
by her ex now what do you do when you're attacked by your ex you i guess you could just you know let
00:06:30.740
him kill you is i think that's option one well wait a minute wait wait wait are you licensed
00:06:35.280
well see this is the issue okay because because if you have a license you could do his hair or you
00:06:43.300
could paint his nails you could paint his nails there's all sorts of things you could give him a
00:06:47.020
massage right yeah so you have to have a license and that's what really lets you know what you can do
00:06:54.020
right what is your value as a human being correct the government should tell us with a certificate
00:06:58.500
correct exactly right here's the thing her thought was maybe i should try to stop this person trying
00:07:04.780
to murder me well now that's an interesting thought uh but obviously that's not enough
00:07:11.020
information on the story sure she took out um a firearm oh my gosh and decided to use it to stop him
00:07:18.300
from killing her now it was a legally owned firearm yes okay so that's that's part of it she had a
00:07:25.820
a license to own it oh she knew yeah she was totally licensed to own it the problem however
00:07:31.380
she didn't have a license to use it she didn't have a license to carry it now there's a huge difference
00:07:36.840
that was she carrying it or is it in her car she was she had it in her car now there are some states
00:07:41.820
uh you can have it like texas for example you don't need a concealed carry to keep it in your car
00:07:47.180
however in illinois that's a different story you know probably in illinois it's a lot like new york and
00:07:52.320
new jersey where you have to keep the gun in the glove box but all the bullets in the trunk right
00:07:56.800
which is really helpful in these oh my gosh in this situation somebody comes and trying to kill
00:08:00.540
you in your car you're like hang on just a second i've got my firearm i just need a second to get out
00:08:05.560
to my trunk get the box of bullets load the gun and then can we pick it up from there yeah now one
00:08:12.240
minor uh issue here of course no look this is good an attacker she's able to fend off the attacker
00:08:17.440
police come and they put the the attacker in jail um and that's good that's good stuff i mean you know
00:08:24.560
look he's an attacker now obviously they had to talk to her too because she did break a rule
00:08:28.140
she didn't have a concealed carry license and she was able to sure utilize her god-given right to
00:08:34.000
defend herself and her constitutional right uh to bear arms to do so however you know she didn't have
00:08:40.780
that license so obviously she had to go to jail too well that's only common sense it's only common
00:08:46.780
that you'd put the woman who was just almost murdered by her ex yeah uh in jail yeah and now
00:08:52.780
he went to jail and had a ten thousand dollar bond oh my gosh now trying to kill her for trying to
00:08:57.300
kill her ten thousand dollar bond ten thousand dollar bond that's hard to raise he probably
00:09:00.700
is still in jail oh no he was able to raise the bond so he's out okay he's out he's out he's out of
00:09:05.500
jail there's a little bit of a uh a wrinkle a wrinkle here in the story hang on let me see if i can iron
00:09:11.220
the wrinkle out ah there it is there it is okay good i got it she's also in jail uh and her bond is
00:09:19.020
seventy five thousand dollars and she can't pay it seventy seventy seventy five seventy five hundred
00:09:24.420
seventy five thousand seventy five thousand so she well she's a dangerous individual she used a gun
00:09:30.360
she used a gun and she used it without a license that's like walking into a hairdresser and just
00:09:34.860
somebody saying now let me let me let me let me cut your hair and they don't have a license yeah
00:09:39.780
you know what i'm saying you can't have that you can't have that scissors are sharp they're very
00:09:44.320
sharp they if you don't have a license who knows are you running with them you might be running with
00:09:49.540
those scissors never gone to school who's gonna teach you taking the test exactly so government
00:09:55.420
can't the government you just can't run around like that thankfully yeah the government and the
00:09:59.880
state of illinois has protected us against this dangerous woman um and and kept her in jail so
00:10:06.420
and look well hey men and women are exactly alike there's no difference between their size their
00:10:13.180
weight there's nothing no he may have been identifying that day as a woman and if there was
00:10:20.160
any difference um some people would suggest that the gun is the great equalizer no but there's no
00:10:25.760
difference between no difference there's no difference women should not have the right to i mean
00:10:29.380
that's not cool and you know what neither should men no one should be able to defend themselves you
00:10:33.140
you just let what happens to you happen to you yeah unless the government decides to license you
00:10:37.100
to change that outcome and in this case they did not so she's in jail and he's free the guy who is
00:10:42.600
beating the crap out of his ex is free running around free to beat up anybody else he wants to but
00:10:47.780
she's in jail but she's in jail protected yes protected from him right right for maybe 20 years
00:10:54.280
this is for her own good yeah amen to that brother i feel good as a may i say as a reverend
00:11:01.380
also a doctor and a colonel but the reverend part may i say give me an am amen amen amen amen
00:11:09.380

everything else really yeah he's written he's written a book and if you can just buy his book

stew stew stew stew stew stew stew stew stew stew as a doctor uh as a reverend as a colonel i i have to
00:17:01.820
tell you that uh all three of those professionals that live deep inside of me also a mccarney
00:17:09.740
marconi award-winning broadcaster i think i could say that as well so all of those people is that why
00:17:16.300
all of those people live inside of me so you see the movie split anyway um so i was celebrating and i i
00:17:25.620
couldn't stop watching the bbc yesterday oh that was satisfying oh it wasn't it it really is i mean
00:17:31.640
you know there was a there was a thought that a really really bad guy yeah get in charge of england
00:17:39.560
jeremy corbyn who is uh absolute anti-semite uh you know this this one really fits these days
00:17:46.960
pals around with terrorists uh that one uh from from the old uh sarah palin days 100 percent fits
00:17:54.000
jeremy corbyn he makes he makes uh bernie sanders look like george washington it's true he really does
00:18:01.540
because he he does not like uh freedom he does not like great britain he loves the former soviet union
00:18:08.900
i mean he is a very bad guy very bad it seems like uh shockingly uh the uk kind of figured that
00:18:16.520
one out britain figured that out um and they uh gave an gigantic win to boris johnson and the
00:18:23.820
conservatives in a in a way to the level that they didn't even expect conservatives didn't even
00:18:29.840
expect to win at this level it is it is bigger than margaret thatcher and about the size of winston
00:18:37.440
churchill in world war ii and he was pretty popular after that you know you got that hitler
00:18:44.520
thing right yeah i think we should go with him yeah i think that's good the they lost the the left
00:18:50.880
lost uh seats that have been held since like 1930 i saw one that was 84 years it had been held by
00:18:59.360
labor uh the labor party which is you know this essentially their left and uh you know conservatives
00:19:06.060
over there now have it and boris johnson i mean he's you know he's great he he really he comes off as
00:19:12.280
sort of aloof and a little silly and his hair is messed up and you know he's kind of a goofball
00:19:17.960
you know by design i think you know but in reality he's absolutely smart he comes disarming he comes out
00:19:25.060
before before he walks out in public he musses up his hair i mean he is he's much more calculated
00:19:31.700
yeah you know donald trump is just like hey he just goes for it you know he just pulls the six
00:19:38.060
shooters out as he feels uh corbin is is johnson or johnson is really really really an intellectual
00:19:46.960
uh and and is more of a show i mean trump is a show too but but uh johnson i think knows when he's
00:19:59.840
mussing up his hair sure and and you know a lot of this went around brexit and it's an interesting
00:20:06.220
thing here because you know half the country voted for brexit half of it voted against it's
00:20:10.380
pretty close vote but brexit won out and and it was supposed to go through it's been three years now
00:20:15.580
where we've been waiting for this to happen and the government has done everything it can to screw
00:20:20.020
this up and stop it and it's interesting that a lot of people who voted to stay remain voters
00:20:27.780
came or came around and voted for the conservative party because they said you know this is ridiculous
00:20:34.940
like i i don't even want to i don't even i didn't even want brexit i voted against it but what you're
00:20:40.180
doing here is you're not even honoring our vote like i lost and i'm willing to lose because we but we
00:20:45.940
need to honor the things that that went on here i heard a labor party member yesterday uh and i just
00:20:51.980
thought hmm i wonder what's going to happen here in america uh next uh next uh election but he was
00:20:59.400
he was saying you can't do this you can't and this goes to the gop as well hello obamacare um you can't
00:21:07.760
ask people to vote let them vote and then just overturn it and just say we're not doing any of
00:21:14.160
those things any parallels to the united states you can think of right now none it's like you know
00:21:18.460
you guys lost trump won i understand you want to you want wanted a different result there you got a
00:21:25.900
chance to do it in 2020 we're in the middle of an election go out there and if you think he's been a
00:21:31.480
bad president defeat him well the i just love this from new york magazine the idea that many people on
00:21:39.220
the left here in america were looking at corbyn and saying yeah you know what's going to happen in
00:21:43.300
in uh great britain is gonna be a precursor to what's coming and i'm today i'm like uh-huh it is
00:21:49.260
you're exactly right he was so far out of the mainstream and he was he was pushing for the things
00:21:55.680
that people felt were unfair and wrong people people that voted for labor before they saw this and one of
00:22:03.720
the labor leaders said you can't ignore democracy you can't ignore the people now this was a labor
00:22:11.240
leader this is what's happening with the media and with the left that they are just they think
00:22:17.440
that they are in the majority and they are not in the majority and the democratic party is learning
00:22:23.320
something they're terrified by this result because this is this is essentially if you think about it
00:22:28.100
from our perspective if boris johnson is trump jeremy corbyn is there elizabeth warren is there bernie
00:22:33.960
sanders and so the democrats today are trying to say wait a minute we can't run somebody like that
00:22:39.160
because the same thing is going to happen to us that happened uh to labor in the uk you can't run
00:22:44.620
someone so incredibly extreme and it's going to rise i think the the uh the momentum behind some of
00:22:51.480
these more moderate quote-unquote candidates which by the way are not moderate at all but i mean the
00:22:56.280
ones they are saying are moderate this is the glenbeck program oh x chair did you get one yet now i'm not
00:23:12.600

00:24:12.940
x chair b e c k dot com x chair beck dot com it's been a decade since we first talked to daniel
00:24:20.860
hannon from the uh from great britain and his desire to take britain out of the uh out of the eu we talk to
00:24:27.920
him next bill o'reilly bill o'reilly is coming up in uh just a second stand by for that you're
00:24:50.540
listening to the reverend dr colonel beck program and uh and i take all of those titles seriously
00:24:57.520
all of them and you should too uh so we have uh we have daniel hannon uh coming on we're trying to
00:25:05.540
connect with him now and an overseas transatlantic cable connection uh we had him on 10 years ago
00:25:13.540
after he gave this great speech in the eu where he's like basically saying europe uh england you
00:25:22.140
should fire me i don't want this job anymore we shouldn't be here and it was such a compelling
00:25:28.220
speech and then what three years ago we had him on we're like congratulations you did it you did it
00:25:35.180
and he was like yeah well we think so but they tend to be a little sticky
00:25:41.640
and uh now we're having him on after the second referendum and this was just this a full election
00:25:48.420
and boris johnson swept and you can give the credit to boris johnson but really it's daniel
00:25:55.260
hannon this is his movement uh the brexit movement is is his now there's two sides of this daniel
00:26:03.060
hannon is the guy who really we should talk to him about this there's this great show on i think it
00:26:08.760
was amazon where um who's uh what's his name cummerbund benedict cumberbatch yes he played
00:26:19.160
who was it it wasn't hannon no hannon was in but it was portrayed in the movie you're talking i think
00:26:25.080
it was i thought it was like a showtime or hbo show originally called brexit called brexit yeah and
00:26:29.480
i don't know any of the i don't know any of the you know politics over there but it seemed pretty
00:26:35.440
fair and good and they portrayed daniel hannon really well really well and yeah and in fact
00:26:42.300
you know at least i mean i'm sure for him there may have been issues with it but generally speaking
00:26:46.280
it was one of those here it looked pretty good yeah one of they actually treated him with respect
00:26:49.720
hang on just a sec daniel's on the phone daniel hannon hey glenn how are you very good
00:26:54.360
congratulations sir for a second time thank you well no don't congratulate me congratulate
00:26:59.160
the country that can still hold its head high having rejected marxism and antisemitism i mean
00:27:04.240
it is crazy it is crazy i heard one of the labor party leaders yesterday say you know you just can't
00:27:09.700
go against democracy you just you can't just not listen to the people i'm like huh what an idea
00:27:15.420
maybe we should think about that here in the united states i actually think you have just
00:27:20.720
unerringly put your finger on what the single biggest sentiment behind this vote was you know
00:27:26.540
we voted to leave the european union three years ago we voted to leave in bigger numbers than british
00:27:32.280
people have ever voted for anything and i think a lot of the kind of pro brussels elite thought we
00:27:37.760
didn't mean it yes but it was a kind of a joke and that if you know that if they hectored us and
00:27:42.580
lectured us we would do as we were told by our betters and i'm i'm very glad that i live in a
00:27:48.860
stubborn stiff-necked country where people just don't react like that and if i'm not mistaken
00:27:53.200
there were people that voted to stay in the eu last time that were voting this time saying you know
00:27:58.700
what no you've got to listen to the people is that true yes i mean i i think we we all we all
00:28:05.980
anecdotally know people like that we all have friends and neighbors in that category and the figures
00:28:11.120
bear it out this was uh this was a a pro-democracy vote and it was also i i think it's really important to
00:28:18.520
stress this is it's it's a it's a remarkably kind of mainstream and moderate vote um because although
00:28:24.700
the although his opponents have tried rather unconvincingly to paint boris johnson as some
00:28:31.740
kind of fringe or far-right figure he's actually very much in the political center the only way you
00:28:36.980
can call him extreme is if you regard brexit as extreme if you're calling a majority of the electorate
00:28:42.380
extreme in other words if you think that it's extreme for any country to want to live
00:28:46.140
under its own laws and its own institutions you know something that the rest of the world takes
00:28:50.380
for granted so the real extremists here with the uh the socialist revolutionaries on the other side
00:28:55.840
and the country politely said no to them because he is really more of a populist i mean he kind of
00:29:01.520
goes where the people are does he not well i mean does it so so so boris is uh is is is politically
00:29:10.560
very much in the mainstream he's you know his character is very large uh he has a very florid
00:29:16.400
and colorful way with words he has a brilliant intellect but his politics are fairly traditional
00:29:21.260
conservative politics uh jeremy corbyn who is a much more kind of normal kind of uh guy in terms of his
00:29:29.440
background and and uh uh his appearance and so on is absolutely from outside the mainstream something
00:29:37.220
we've never really had a uh an unapologetic marxist leading one of them right he's a he's a marxist
00:29:43.900
he's a he's a uh virile anti-semitic uh figure um it seems to really hate great britain uh and what it
00:29:55.020
stood for for uh forever going way way back with him i don't think he personally i want to be as fair
00:30:01.580
as i can i don't think he personally is anti-semitic but he is so self-righteous that he could not
00:30:08.120
acknowledge or accept that his party had a problem with anti-semitism which comes out of this bizarre
00:30:14.720
alliance between the extreme left and the islamic jihadi types so and because he's so convinced that
00:30:21.060
we're where the left is where the good guys he just couldn't bring himself to accept that the problem
00:30:24.760
existed so who is boy that's very gracious of you to say that about him um how uh how much of this was
00:30:32.020
about him as well as as the british people saying we don't want we don't want what he is selling
00:30:40.580
beyond brexit yeah i mean i think it was very i think that was a very large part of it um britain
00:30:48.620
unusual britain is unusual in in two respects um compared to to europe politically
00:30:53.880
in modern times we have never had an anti-semitic party anywhere near power of course we have had
00:31:00.500
individual anti-semites yes down the years just as you have just as every other country in the world
00:31:05.000
has but they've never before infiltrated one of the major parties that is new and was outside our
00:31:09.640
experience second and again this is very different from almost every country in europe we never had
00:31:15.560
any significant communist party there was never any parliamentary movement that was marxist in its
00:31:21.920
orientation until now and those two things came together in the last couple of years under this
00:31:27.240
labor leadership and you know happening here country which deep down is a commonsensical level-headed
00:31:33.020
uh fair-minded country just thought you know what that is not the kind of people we are so i'm very glad
00:31:39.560
that we've kept our record intact as a country that has nothing to do either with anti-semitic
00:31:45.020
conspiracy theories or with revolutionary so what should washington and those in our parties here
00:31:51.840
take as the lesson for america well people are wiser than their leaders and people want
00:32:02.400
representatives uh legislators and elected representatives who remember that they are servants
00:32:09.340
and not rulers when we voted leave you know it wasn't it wasn't in the in a spirit of light banter
00:32:15.840
we really meant it and for three years we've been told by our supposed intellectual elites that we
00:32:23.500
didn't understand what we were voting for we got it wrong and so on and we can see first of all that
00:32:28.440
all of their predictions of disaster have conspicuously failed i mean the the the british
00:32:33.160
the pound sterling and the straight line up beating the dollar the minute the bbc said
00:32:41.680
looks like it's going to be the conservatives in a landslide i mean it was straight line up
00:32:46.340
right and that proves something which up until now i was only able to argue but but i i can now
00:32:54.160
point as the rest of us can uh to some evidence which is that the the real problem holding back our
00:33:00.120
economy and holding back so we've done okay but we could be doing even better was not brexit it was
00:33:07.080
fear of a corbyn-led government and now that that fear has been removed i think that there will be a
00:33:13.140
flood of pent-up investment into the uk economy because businesses that were holding back not to
00:33:20.580
you know every do you open a restaurant you buy a house you you know no one wanted to make those
00:33:25.540
decisions as long as there was a prospect of a communist prime minister who was prepared to
00:33:30.940
expropriate private assets so and now that that is that that has been removed i think the uk economy
00:33:37.500
is now poised to take off are you going to actually leave by the end of january yes 2020
00:33:45.440
we will yeah to be to be absolutely clear yes we will leave at uh uh 11 p.m uh you know 6 p.m eastern
00:34:00.620
standard time on the 31st of january daniel the two main factors here at least from the outsider
00:34:06.260
perspective are jeremy corbyn's an extremist and the british people wanted to say you know democracy
00:34:11.440
counts we know this vote happened uh and we need to honor it if you had to give a kind of a split
00:34:16.540
what what was the bigger factor there very i mean you're quite right those those were the two the two
00:34:23.420
main factors uh and and and they they're very linked because you know the refusal to acknowledge
00:34:29.120
democracy kind of confirmed all the negatives people had about well hang on is this a party that
00:34:34.460
would ever uh behead constitutionally uh there's one third factor though in this which i think is is
00:34:40.340
only fair to nod at which is the personal popularity of boris johnson and his ability
00:34:46.140
to connect with voters in seats that had a cultural hereditary or tribal affiliation with labor
00:34:54.500
which almost made it impossible for them to look at at a conservative candidate because of all the
00:35:01.480
connotations that they've grown up with uh and boris has swept all of that away and the the whole
00:35:07.960
electoral map looks different now we we had a better vote for the conservative party than we've
00:35:12.360
had since margaret thatcher at her height is he thatcher or is he more like churchill
00:35:16.660
i mean he he is politically much more within the churchill tradition of sort of you know moderate
00:35:26.980
patriotic um he you probably know that boris wrote a book about all right it's the my one of my
00:35:34.940
favorite books right it was it was written off by a lot of the critics who sneered at it and what
00:35:41.240
they said was boris has kind of refashioned the great wartime leader into a prop in his own drama
00:35:47.200
so the churchill who emerges from the pages of his book is this right-wing journalist and witty
00:35:52.500
after-dinner speaker who is kind of cruelly overlooked by the party elites and until the
00:35:56.600
moment of crisis now i actually don't think that criticism is entirely fair uh boris is not
00:36:02.400
comparing himself to churchill but i think it is probably true that he was inspired by elements
00:36:08.460
of churchill's story and in particular by the way in which the great man put all of the kind of uh
00:36:15.840
the boozing and the the the unseriousness and the silly friends behind him and rose to the occasion
00:36:21.760
and i think he very much sees this as his moment to rise to the occasion all right so speaking of silly
00:36:26.900
friends behind him if you were in america you were wondering when you heard him speak last night
00:36:31.880
why elmo and a weird darth vader was standing behind him and why you allowed elmo to take his
00:36:39.240
head off isn't it just glorious isn't the most wonderful thing what it was like when you are the
00:36:47.720
sitting prime minister you've got to go and defend your constituency against challenges by elmo and lord
00:36:53.800
buckethead what a fantastic reminder in practice as well as in theory that we are all equal before
00:37:01.580
the law and the the politician is the servant so quickly can you tell us was that elmo and who was
00:37:07.360
the guy in the bucket we have a we've had a tradition here going back about 50 or 60 years that a number
00:37:15.040
of eccentric and choke candidates uh stand against the main party leaders in their constituencies when
00:37:23.100
there is a general election shut up and yeah yeah and one in fact there is a party the guy with the
00:37:29.940
the guy you're calling darth vader who who's changed his name by deedful to lord buckethead
00:37:34.740
he is the leader of quite an old party uh in britain that began in the early 60s called the official
00:37:41.560
monster raving loony party and it has contested every by-election and its leader has stood against
00:37:48.140
the incumbent prime minister at every election since the mid-60s so they are they're actually
00:37:52.800
older than our liberal democrat unbelievable unbelievable one last question uh the uh scottish
00:38:00.040
national uh party uh did very well uh and it's funny because the people were like hey democracy means
00:38:08.720
something and we're we're we want brexit well that's really the message of the scottish national
00:38:15.640
party and i think it's been the same one since mel gibson put blue paint on his face uh leave us alone
00:38:22.200
we don't want a queen what's going to happen with that and how's boris going to be able to with the
00:38:28.580
difference of course that when uh when that was put to a referendum unlike with brexit it it was
00:38:33.980
defeated um oh it was so why why did this why did the national party go do so well in scotland
00:38:41.580
well this is interesting so a lot of their voters are in fact against independence for scotland but
00:38:49.500
they vote for the scottish national party as a way of uh maximizing scotland's weight in the union if
00:38:56.960
you like where i'm maybe you know sending a message to london that they need to be taken seriously or
00:39:00.740
a very it's a very common thing you get it in in other places where there's a separatist uh feeling
00:39:06.140
um i i can't see there being another referendum in the short run because you know we had one five
00:39:12.420
years ago and everyone said that that was it and it was going to be it for a lifetime and so on
00:39:16.120
but i do think that we need to acknowledge the advance in the in the elections of the scottish
00:39:23.700
national party and it it seems to me that the the fairest thing to all sides given that
00:39:30.560
scotland voted to stay in the in the uk but not by a huge margin in 2014 the fairest thing would be
00:39:36.360
to try and come up with some compromise where there is more devolution for scotland including
00:39:41.860
tax raising powers fiscal autonomy uh then stops short of actually having separate embassies and
00:39:47.840
so on which i think is what the vast majority of people in scotland say they want they want more
00:39:52.060
autonomy but not complete breakaway daniel hannon i have literally 10 seconds and i'm being screamed
00:39:56.560
out of my ear 10 seconds does this mean does this push france closer to brexit themselves or not i
00:40:03.560
just need a yes or no question from for an answer i don't think with france i think the next country
00:40:08.220
to go will probably be the netherlands god bless you thank you very much daniel hannon uh our friend
00:40:13.380
from uh the eu he's the ambassador of the eu or the representative or whatever i want to tell you
00:40:21.260

welcome to the uh program mr bill o'reilly is coming up next which oh do you think bill has a few
00:41:37.580
things to say about the ig report about the media oh chuck todd man
00:41:42.420
the the latest from chuck todd on meet the press is just outrageous he's comparing the impeachment
00:41:53.160
trial to the oj simpson trial except he's got it backwards he's got it backwards who's making this
00:41:59.920
all about the glove the conservatives or the media this is the glenn beck program
00:42:06.260
boy there's a really sad story we have bill o'reilly coming up in just a second there's a
00:42:20.920
really sad story about greta thurnberg that is out her crisis of of meaning uh she is
00:42:28.240
she is one of the saddest figures i think in public today how dare you exactly right uh apparently
00:42:38.860
she had an eating disorder she was depressed she had no friends she hated school by her own telling
00:42:47.180
of the story yeah it's so sad and then she found climate justice and that's her whole life
00:42:52.880
the she said the entire meaning of her life she's now it's it's cured her she's now better and it's
00:43:00.760
like when you put all your faith in something like that eventually it fails you right i mean
00:43:06.500
eventually she realizes she's not gonna die in a fiery flood in two years and then what then your
00:43:12.420
meaning's gone too i mean this is this is really a case of really bad parents i think i mean as a
00:43:19.300
parent i would be saying honey go outside and play for a little while you know let's have some
00:43:24.260
perspective you can't make your whole life about this your life has meaning besides this

the fbi they want to get you on charges they want to phone tap you if they'll do this to the president
00:44:23.240

heard from coast to coast from the liberals the democrats the independents the conservatives the

00:46:10.080
i'm going to start with this bill o'reilly welcome to the program what is the biggest
00:46:17.100
story of the week in your opinion um so i'm on now it's my turn it's your turn yes excellent
00:46:24.560
excellent welcome uh the biggest story that i took out of all the chaos this week there were actually
00:46:32.760
two very important stories for americans that have implications going forward the first one is that
00:46:41.780
it is clear to me that the fbi was out of control so the most powerful investigative agency in the
00:46:50.380
world not just in the country um was basically running a bunco scheme remember those old detective
00:47:00.200
shows the jack whip bunco scheme and it is clear there's no denying it that they um basically
00:47:11.240
colluded love that word when i hear that before colluded the fbi colluded to get with quotes around get
00:47:20.300
donald trump so before and after the 2016 election that's the big big story that all americans should
00:47:29.980
be very unsettled about go ahead your follow-up question so my son said to me now he's 15 and we
00:47:36.500
were talking about he said dad what what happened with the fbi and i told him and uh he sat there for
00:47:43.260
just 30 seconds and he said well the real question is and i was shocked to hear this come out of his
00:47:49.940
mouth who organized that who was at the top of that who allowed that to happen where who was call who
00:47:57.680
was calling the shots on this yeah a couple of weeks ago i don't know if you remember stew may remember
00:48:03.280
but he might have been off because stew's off a lot um i told you about a case street group called the
00:48:12.080
bonner group do you remember that i do remember okay you said that americans don't know anything
00:48:18.040
about this because it'll never be reported on in the media so every morning there is a conference call
00:48:26.540
uh that comes out of this group they have offices and they are basically uh attached to the democratic
00:48:34.420
party but far more than that they are uh adherents of the secular progressive movement funded by
00:48:41.720
george soros now as soon as you mention soros then you're a paranoid nut or you're anti-semitic
00:48:45.980
or you know you know what the media does all right but this is a true story so everybody in
00:48:53.040
washington who works in all of the agencies and all of the departments know about this crew and they
00:49:01.180
know that this crew they're activists and they tried to advance agendas and the agenda of course in
00:49:08.100
2016 was keep donald trump out of the overall office right that was the agenda of the bonner group
00:49:18.420
before that it was destroy fox news and and the reason i know about this is i got caught up in this
00:49:23.840
all right they hurt me so that's how i know so much about them because we put our investigators and
00:49:30.220
found out but anyway the sole agenda in 2016 was hurt donald trump get him and in those um uh in that
00:49:40.460
campaign james comey and mccabe who mccabe's wife you'll remember ran for congress as a democrat
00:49:48.040
in virginia they're in that circle they know all these people and they know what comes out
00:49:56.320
so early on and i don't believe that it was um explicit i don't believe comey and mccabe
00:50:05.020
had a meeting because they're way too smart for that and told their agents led by peter struck the
00:50:11.400
infamous mistress guy with the text get trump and and that's our policy that's not what they do
00:50:16.980
it's implied implied and when the opening came from the bar conversation in london between
00:50:25.080
papadopoulos and the australian guy that was the opening that the fbi needed aha now we have a
00:50:32.420
legitimate way to go in and try to surveil the trump campaign because we believe they're dirty
00:50:37.860
it's like you know they know who all the organized crime people are they know they sell narcotics
00:50:42.560
but they need an opening to get in and tap them this was the opening and then from there it cascaded
00:50:49.700
into into illegality where they made stuff up they falsified uh texts between the cia and the fbi
00:50:57.840
they do all kinds of things to get the fisa warrant so that's what happened so let me ask you this what
00:51:03.180
why did horowitz the ig come out with this i think the headline is mamby pamby because he calls them
00:51:13.340
inaccuracies but listening to his testimony he knows those aren't inaccuracies he knows that is
00:51:21.120
a forgery uh uh a setup um uh lying outright to the fisa court he knows that why was the language
00:51:32.120
you and i and this is absolutely true and back in o'reilly are one of the two of the few
00:51:42.880
who have pointed out that horowitz was disingenuous word of the day in his testimony
00:51:50.400
and the reason he was is he doesn't want to be attacked by the washington post
00:51:55.120
which is uber powerful in dc but horowitz did tell you what you just raised he did say that
00:52:04.960
but he said it in such an oblique way that you'd have to be right into that swamp to know
00:52:10.400
he said there was never an explanation for the fbi's conduct to the what he should have said was
00:52:18.900
in all my years of being in the justice department i have never seen anything like this and it strains
00:52:26.240
credulity you know the word of the day to think that it was an accident to think that these mistakes
00:52:32.520
all 17 of them were accidents just bad judgment no but but they're not but they're not it's it's not
00:52:40.500
only impossible to have 17 or 19 mistakes all fall in the one direction the actions of changing an
00:52:48.960
an email and reversing it you know cutting out language referred he's referred and he will be
00:52:57.180
charged right he will be charged all right that fbi agent who did that now did he do it on his own
00:53:03.940
again why would an fbi agent put his whole career and life at stake for one why why it doesn't make
00:53:11.960
any sense no so mike none of this makes any sense but what what your audience has to understand is
00:53:18.180
that this horowitz powerful man inspector general of the justice department did not want to put himself
00:53:25.500
at risk by telling the american people what really happened so he did the dance he told you but he
00:53:37.060
didn't really say it the dance is what they all do okay this is it's getting frightening because as ben
00:53:45.300
sass said he said i was ashamed that i have to sit two people down from mike lee because i've had this
00:53:51.160
argument for four years and i believe in the fisa system i believe in the fbi and he said i told mike
00:53:57.300
for five years this doesn't happen and he said now i have to hear this that it is happening and it's
00:54:02.320
happening in a case where they knew this would get sunlight they knew this would be seen so if they're
00:54:10.080
doing this now what does the average american have in store with a fisa court we're you're i mean
00:54:18.340
mike lee came out and said i don't think that they knew they were going to get caught because the press
00:54:24.860
covers for them so you got to understand the big picture the only way you get caught doing corrupt
00:54:33.540
activities at the federal government level is if the press uncovers it because the watchdogs aren't
00:54:41.460
going to do it you saw horowitz he's not elliot ness right all right so when you have the press in the
00:54:49.200
tank whatever harms donald trump is good and we don't really care whether you break the law to do it
00:54:58.080
this is the american press all right the fbi they didn't fear exposure who's going to expose them
00:55:05.500
so this is so this is so terrifying uh you know mike that's the right word mike lee said we should
00:55:12.080
suspend all fisa courts until we know exactly what's going on ig uh horowitz said that uh they are
00:55:20.620
conducting an information an investigation in all of the fisa warrants but this is this should
00:55:27.820
terrify people and it goes so far beyond donald trump and nancy pelosi and adam shift this is a this
00:55:35.960
is the fourth amendment does not exist today in america but but i don't i'm not buying into that the
00:55:45.620
whole system the fisa court system what gives you we should remind we should remind your audience
00:55:52.820
the reason this was put into place was to protect americans from foreign terrorists coming here and
00:55:58.660
blowing us up all right that's the reason that this was um put into place during bush the younger's
00:56:05.820
administration to give the federal agencies fbi cia nsa more latitude to surveil people who might harm
00:56:16.220
us but bill this is the same kind of thing that shift was doing when he went into the skiff and said
00:56:21.820
hey i'm going to do these three phone numbers well those were well that's at&t i know but at&t could
00:56:28.620
have said no and shift would have lost in court that's at&t and who does at&t own cnn okay so what
00:56:39.300
what's what's happened here is corruption number one but i believe the corruption was directed by james
00:56:46.500
comey and andrew mccabe and i believe they will be indicted when the justice department wraps up its
00:56:54.420
investigation durham but between now and durham bar putting people in handcuffs which will probably be
00:57:01.800
in july okay you're going to see attacks on both bar and durham like you've never seen by the press
00:57:10.740
which wants to harm donald trump all of this and i don't even know if trump knows it i think he does
00:57:18.080
is going to help him get re-elected donald trump because even even the dimmest of americans know the fix was in
00:57:27.660
all of this stuff was contrived it was based on nothing but getting president trump
00:57:34.760
and when you have an apparatus a federal apparatus devoted to getting a president
00:57:41.760
that's corruption beyond anything that we've seen okay i want to take a quick break we're with bill
00:57:48.120
o'reilly um from billoreilly.com you can watch his show and uh get all of his uh get all of his
00:57:55.400
opinions every day at billoreilly.com i want to pause here because i want to come back and um ask you about
00:58:02.000
what do you think the senate is going to do how are they going to investigate because people do
00:58:09.380
belong in handcuffs and people need to pay a high price because if not we have a banana republic right
00:58:16.480
now there's a banana republic that is happening and if we don't get control of this we all lose our
00:58:22.140
freedom uh and we'll go to that in just a second first 23andme is here to remind you that you can give
00:58:30.120
a gift that is really personal uh to somebody that you really love this christmas have them open up
00:58:39.220
a 23andme dna kit this is really an amazing experience one that we didn't actually expect i
00:58:46.560
mean i was excited um and we were all excited when we took our dna uh test to see you know our heritage
00:58:53.580
and everything else but i didn't think that it would bring the family together as it did i mean
00:58:59.680
we were really interested in our family history we were we they because they came in at different
00:59:05.300
times so our dna stuff would be available online and the kids would say every day is it here is it
00:59:11.900
here can we check can we check and we did and we spent all night going over each one so it was
00:59:17.820
like four different nights it was really fantastic a great bonding experience it's not just an ancestry
00:59:23.440
service it's ancestry and health you get the genetic reports insights to your health and with now a
00:59:31.460
hundred sorry a 1500 geographic regions 23andme is the most comprehensive ancestry breakdown on the
00:59:38.760
market and you don't pay more for the trait reports it is really great ancestry and health kit
00:59:43.920
it's now 70 bucks i think that's half the price now through december 25th at 23andme.com slash back
00:59:51.200
that's the number 23andme.com slash back order by the 16th and get it before christmas we have 10 seconds
00:59:59.200
all right so bill what is the i saw a story just a few minutes ago that looks like lindsey graham's not
01:00:21.680
going to call any witnesses for the impeachment trial i think they're just going to just dismiss this
01:00:27.620
uh which i guess would be a good legal uh way to do it because you know as mike lee said when you've won
01:00:36.460
the case sit down and shut up uh however i think that's really bad for the country because we have to
01:00:45.920
expose all of this you know it's a very hard call i understand that um if the republicans put on a trial
01:00:56.660
in the senate the democratic party will be embarrassed uh you have a lot of court fights
01:01:03.480
they'd subpoena shift he'd say no they'd subpoena biden he'd say no um then they go to court and it
01:01:10.980
goes on and on and on and on but i think the strategy that mitch mcconnell and you have to assume
01:01:17.120
donald trump is involved with this i think what they have um done is looked at the polls
01:01:24.180
and the polls which are push polls which means that quinnipiac and monmouth and all of these
01:01:31.940
polling agencies they wanted a certain outlook and the what they wanted was that the majority of
01:01:38.900
americans want president trump removed from office but it didn't turn out that way in both polls
01:01:45.380
even though if you look at the methodology which of course billoreilly.com does for every poll
01:01:51.320
you see far more democrats polled than republicans which in a case like this is not fair but even then
01:01:59.140
only 45 percent of the respondents want him removed because of this stuff so that mcconnell and trump
01:02:06.140
basically say we won and we can use this to demonize the democratic party yeah we might get a
01:02:13.540
little bit more in a trial but we have enough now i mean joe biden himself even though he's come up in
01:02:20.740
the democratic polls i mean my god they could just bludgeon him with this ukraine stuff and so i think
01:02:29.080
that's a strategy and that was the decision that was made so is any of the actual corruption
01:02:38.120
in ukraine with the democratic party barack obama and what is happening with our state department and
01:02:45.740
what is happening with our fdi and justice department is that going to be exposed and correct and corrected
01:02:52.700
because i don't see that happening unless you have unless donald trump has a trial in the senate with
01:03:01.220
a supreme court justice and donald trump is tweeting all the time i'm going to sit in the gallery and i might
01:03:06.860
just blurt things out because then people will watch it and they will see it i don't think trump has
01:03:13.040
ever sat in a gallery in his life i know i know i know um look the only chance that we the people
01:03:20.860
have of really knowing the extent of the corruption in the 2016 election is john durham that's it
01:03:30.600
now bar is a pretty feisty guy the attorney general he has made it quite clear that he is appalled by the
01:03:40.060
corruption in the american press and the corruption in the democratic party is he a partisan yes he is
01:03:47.560
is he a trump supporter no doubt about it but he has power now and that's why you saw uh steadman i mean
01:03:56.340
i mean um the former attorney general he doesn't look exactly like oprah's boyfriend he does kind
01:04:02.960
of yes um come out yesterday and attack him and as i said you're going to see bar but bar can take
01:04:10.400
this investigation anywhere he wants to take it so if bar himself believes it was massive corruption
01:04:16.960
in ukraine in 2016 that'll find its way into the final justice department report but that's really
01:04:25.120
the only hope i don't like it i don't like it unless you go over there yeah learn how to speak
01:04:33.720
ukrainian and uh i take them out you know i would like to tell me what happened over here i would like
01:04:38.640
to and we're working on that uh i i just i fee i tremble for my country to quote uh thomas jefferson uh
01:04:48.040
this is so corrupt and so um unjust on what's happening right now and the ramifications are so
01:04:57.400
big it must be exposed and i think donald trump is the only one that can that can make that happen
01:05:04.920
because he knows how to draw a crowd but somebody's got to do it the right way more with bill o'reilly
01:05:11.480
listening to glenn beck i want to talk to you about rec tech grills rec tech grills are just the
01:05:18.640
best grill you've ever seen i think they are going to this is going to be the industry standard uh you're
01:05:25.380
not going to find them in home depot because they don't pay home depot they they're not they're not
01:05:30.600
they're not putting them in there because they can take the money that they would have to pay home
01:05:34.360
depot and their cut and they put it into the grill so you're going to pay the same uh or a little less
01:05:40.620
from the things that you'll find in home depot or wherever you buy your grills but this is twice the
01:05:46.380
grill i talk about how it's it's 80 pounds heavier than the next competitor and i say that because it's
01:05:51.860
built so well i mean it's real steel um but one of the things that i haven't talked about is really
01:05:58.300
easy to move i mean it is i mean push it around with a finger kind of of movement it is very high
01:06:04.140
tech you can control the temperature of your grill on your phone it's it's just the best totally
01:06:11.180
changing the way america grills it's a rec tech grill r-e-c-t-e-c grills.com you want the very best
01:06:20.760

01:06:36.520
there is something big happening in virginia and we have cam edwards who has been a
01:07:06.500
you know a second amendment guy forever he's um the host of 40 acres and a fuel he's uh and a fool
01:07:13.560
he's he's part of the blaze podcast network uh he's coming up and we're going to talk a little bit
01:07:19.320
about what's going on in virginia coming up in just a little while bill o'reilly is with us now from
01:07:24.040
billoreilly.com uh bill let me let me go across the water here for a second i think there is a real
01:07:30.440
lesson to be learned from brexit uh and from this vote um uh it was was really a referendum of
01:07:39.040
do the politicians have to listen to the people or not
01:07:43.060
uh i tweeted yesterday you know i tweet back did you know that no i didn't i i man i missed that i have
01:07:51.240
the full disclosure i have no idea how to do that but i have people i have people that tweet in my uh
01:07:58.000
corgi my corgi holly the terror dog has three million two hundred and sixty five thousand twitter
01:08:04.380
followers wow so yesterday i tweeted that the election in britain um may forebode
01:08:14.140
bad bad tidings for the democratic party here and the reason is that there's not a lot of difference
01:08:21.880
between boris johnson uh and donald trump i agree there's not a lot of difference um neither one is a
01:08:31.440
uh rational politician they are both emotional men um they both are populists and johnson um
01:08:40.680
kick some serious um tail labor party butt over there right and there's not a lot of difference
01:08:46.640
between the extreme on the left here and the extreme on the left of the labor party there
01:08:51.240
well they're i think they're communists over there i mean yeah well um jeremy corbyn i mean my god
01:08:58.400
but um the the real takeaway for americans who really don't care what happens in uh the british isles
01:09:06.060
most of us um is that there comes a point where the folks the regular folks not the ideologues not
01:09:13.940
the really politically involved people but just the people they they reach a point where they go enough
01:09:19.940
and i think the democratic party and i believe that the chieftains know this are seeing that happen
01:09:28.260
enough of adam schiff enough of nancy pelosi enough of gerald nadler enough of the fawning press the
01:09:36.840
corrupt press cnn's ratings are rock and it's amazing these are the biggest stories and they have
01:09:44.400
three-year lows and ratings that's a repudiation of the outfit all right and i think that's where
01:09:50.820
we're getting now if donald trump would be astute he could harness this but instead he attacks a
01:09:59.080
16 year old girl out of sweden who wants it to be cooler i yeah i you know i i'm saying to myself
01:10:07.040
no no this is not where you should be focusing that is the that is the difference between boris
01:10:15.640
johnson and uh donald trump boris johnson is much more calculated in his moves i don't know that boris
01:10:23.320
johnson is brawling outside a pub so i'm not sure that's accurate um but as far as donald trump is
01:10:30.740
concerned i mean why why don't take your eye off the corruption i agree you know you can win the
01:10:41.000
election did i tell you i had uh supper with trump yes okay too many times i don't want to be redundant
01:10:47.280
or repetitive on uh the global's fuller program and and and in that supper i i basically said
01:10:54.420
i would say this to barack obama or to anybody i said look if you want to win all you have to do
01:11:04.240
is say one simple thing you may not like me but do you really want them that's it that's all and
01:11:16.000
most americans i believe at this point in history say no we don't want them we don't want the new york
01:11:22.680
times we don't want me too we don't want all of this pc crap where you can't say anything we don't want
01:11:32.720
and therefore we'll vote for the guy who opposes it that's what it's going to come down to so the
01:11:39.480
media is i mean chuck todd uh on meet the press and and then msnbc and cnn you know not really covering
01:11:49.780
uh the uh horowitz testimony and the reaction to the horowitz testimony it is i've never seen
01:11:58.480
anything i am willing now to say that the press on the on the whole is an enemy of the constitution
01:12:06.940
of america they they they are they are a danger and a detriment to our basic bill of rights but let's
01:12:16.880
get more specific beck all right then the press and the media we can demonize them all day long and
01:12:23.760
just so your audience knows in the opening of the horowitz report the chairman of the senate
01:12:31.420
judiciary committee lindsey graham gave a statement msnbc which is run by nbc news correct which is run
01:12:39.440
by comcast refused to take lindsey graham's statement however when the minority ranking member
01:12:47.160
diane feinstein they were there msnbc took it now that's unheard of for a news agency correct but
01:12:57.880
that comes from comcast now the most important soundbite in the last two weeks from a politician
01:13:06.500
was michael bloomberg who told the cbs morning news that hey yes i ordered my news
01:13:16.960
agency not to cover me or any of the democrats running for president while at the same time
01:13:22.400
gave them the green light to hammer donald trump as much as possible and the woman on cbs said well
01:13:29.360
that doesn't seem right and bloomberg looked at her and said i sign the checks
01:13:35.920
and if you accept my checks there are restrictions on what you do that was the most important soundbite
01:13:47.060
that anybody could digest bloomberg basically telling the american people
01:13:53.720
i am going to control the news flow in my agency and that's what they do in every other agency
01:14:03.140
so you're saying it's important you're saying it's important because he actually is telling the
01:14:07.440
truth he's telling the truth and the corporations are dictating the coverage not uh what's his name
01:14:15.660
uh on meet the press um not jake tapper these people are taking orders all right they are ordered
01:14:25.440
to do things and sometimes it's explicit and sometimes it's implicit but they are not going to go
01:14:33.460
against their corporate masters who sign their checks so there's there's a there's a new uh well
01:14:41.500
it's not new um they're calling everything now including the horowitz uh stuff a um a conspiracy
01:14:48.600
theory yes right wing conspiracy absolutely how is you know what it's not getting any traction it's
01:14:55.320
not and that's the good news i don't want you know it's christmas time and i i have a plug i need to
01:15:01.260
make right i got it it's christmas time and it's goodwill toward men i don't want people to be depressed
01:15:07.880
the turnaround is coming and the turnaround is not political it's cultural people are starting to
01:15:16.320
understand that their rights are being threatened on a number of different levels we talked about
01:15:22.220
the fisa warrants you've talked about the second amendment um i do that on billoreilly.com all the
01:15:28.540
time yeah we've talked about the first amendment freedom of speech okay people are starting to say
01:15:32.940
you know what this totalitarian left that is on display during every democratic debate this is a
01:15:40.680
threat to me and my family economically it's a threat socially it's a threat and my basic freedoms
01:15:48.640
would be eroded if these people get power that turnaround all right is here now again you're not
01:15:56.120
going to see it reported you're not going to hear it but i i you know everybody i have an advantage in
01:16:01.680
life back because everybody knows me about 50 people know you but everybody knows me all right so
01:16:09.480
wherever i go people engage and they're and because i'm six four two fifteen they they're not nasty
01:16:16.840
because you know there's an irish guy who knows what he's going to do they're nice but they ask
01:16:22.580
questions and then they offer opinions and almost a hundred percent of them i've had enough of this
01:16:29.180
i have had enough and again trump may blow it he may not understand the wins well here's this is
01:16:39.100
what i wanted to ask because it goes right to that i think he has the clearest path to victory
01:16:43.960
since reagan and mondale however he could blow it and what he could what people are saying is that
01:16:50.700
his paranoia is increasing etc etc which you would understand you just had dinner with him you didn't
01:16:56.700
see it because you just had dinner with him not true uh i didn't i don't know if it's true or not
01:17:01.840
but i didn't see it all right and i believe me i've known a man for 30 years so i can put him
01:17:06.900
into perspective he was the same although he is very well aware that he's president of the united
01:17:13.720
states so i can't just go hey you pinhead you know like i could when he wasn't sure well you can't
01:17:20.300
but he was essentially the same when i was speaking to him alone as he had been when i went to the
01:17:30.380
yankee game with him and the nick game with him way back all right i didn't see him facial tics
01:17:37.900
or you know any i didn't and i you know look the man is under unbelievable pressure never seen like
01:17:44.260
incredible right yeah but he that night it was a three-hour dinner back i was trying i was looking
01:17:50.540
away i gotta get out of here i mean but it was the white house my god you know it's such a magnificent
01:17:57.360
majestic place and i was lucky to be invited but no i don't see him as uh being anything other than
01:18:07.480
he has been but the lack of discipline in his presentation on twitter at the rallies going after
01:18:14.880
the 16 year old girl from sweden that could derail the whole thing i agree i agree bill o'reilly thank

01:23:12.900
weekend i'm really interested to see richard jewel from clint eastwood which i think looks really
01:23:17.500
really good so do you remember covering that yeah that was before i remember watching the
01:23:21.800
coverage yeah i remember covering it and thinking this is crazy what's happening um and i don't really
01:23:28.380
remember how it all ended oh this is the thing this is like basically my favorite genre of movies which
01:23:34.360
is um dramatic tellings of recent historical events i don't know why i love these things every
01:23:38.780
time they come out i want to see it but i can't look at any of the coverage on it because i don't want
01:23:42.880
to relearn the story i want to i want it to be revealed in the movie and then i can go back and
01:23:47.720
see where they you know took artistic license here and there but i don't want to like go back and know
01:23:51.980
the whole story before i go well the press is very upset about it and i can't wait to read one of the
01:23:56.920
reviews to you because their hypocrisy unbearable is stunning just stunning all right we're going to
01:24:06.100
talk about the second amendment and this big movement that is now happening in virginia
01:24:10.180
coming up in uh just a second you're listening to glenn back
01:24:16.020
uh we have gavin edwards on uh in just a minute this guy is this guy's incredible he has written nine
01:24:33.820
uh new york times best-selling books uh he's written for every magazine but this is what i like he's
01:24:39.900
he moonlights as a game designer photographer and a demolition derby driver i've actually thought
01:24:45.880
about doing demolition derby driving really i have because we have a you know up you know up in idaho
01:24:53.680
where it's a small little town of 500 people every summer they do a demolition derby and i want to i
01:24:59.840
want to enter i want to i want a car that i can enter but i've never talked to a demolition derby
01:25:04.600
driver before so i don't know if it's like is that like suicidal i don't think i doubt it's
01:25:10.480
suicidal but i don't know that that's necessarily what we want to spend this entire interview talking
01:25:14.380
about oh i'm sorry is uh are you a doctor well no okay are you a uh are you a reverend no i'm not
01:25:22.500

01:25:36.720
program you do sound important thank you sound sound keyword
01:25:57.820
you know i only have one real memory of mr rogers neighborhood and that is i'm 16 years old
01:26:06.620
my dad happens to come home early for one day from work and i'm sitting at three o'clock there
01:26:12.940
we had four channels abc nbc cbs and pbs and mr rogers was on and everything else was a soap opera
01:26:20.660
and i just sitting on the couch eating some i don't know cornflakes or something and my dad comes in
01:26:25.980
and he stops and he sees me and he looks at the tv and he watches it for a second and then he looks at
01:26:32.700
me puzzled and then he looks back at the tv and he says what the hell are you watching and what is
01:26:37.580
wrong with you you know 16 is a little out of the demo no but it was one of those things where you
01:26:42.940
just were surfing you had four channels and you're like i'm just gonna eat a bowl of cereal i watched
01:26:46.680
this my dad rightly uh at 16 was like turn the tv turn the tv off mr rogers now is an icon an absolute
01:26:57.980
icon the question is why and why now we have the author of kindness and wonder why mr rogers matters
01:27:10.120
now more than ever gavin edwards in one minute this is the glenbeck program also uh i don't think
01:27:18.460
there's any relation cam edwards is going to be talking to us about the second amendment sanctuary cities

01:29:32.600
for the new york times wired billboard uh details and gq and has moonlighted as a game designer
01:29:39.220
photographer and a demolition derby driver i love this guy uh lives in north carolina in charlotte
01:29:46.700
welcome to the program gavin edwards how are you sir i'm very well how about yourself sir i'm i'm very
01:29:52.240
good so uh mr rogers he is he has always been an amazing man anybody who ever paid attention to him
01:30:03.300
uh he's been an amazing man now he's gone and he is an icon an absolute icon surpasses anything
01:30:14.520
sesame street ever did this is this is the guy that you look at and go that doesn't exist why is he
01:30:23.200
suddenly so popular and everywhere well i think there's uh two reasons one is he was the real deal
01:30:31.480
that you know sort of like mr rogers would have still been a lot of good in the world if like off
01:30:36.500
stage he was you know like driving fast cars and chomping cigars like if that show would have still
01:30:42.700
help people but everyone knows that like he was that authentic guy like if he was out uh you know
01:30:49.380
sort of like and he saw a kid like on the edge of a room where he was having lunch uh like looking
01:30:54.460
distressed he would get up from his meal he would walk over get down on one knee and talk to that kid
01:30:59.840
and make sure that kid was okay so that was what he was about so gavin at this point in our history i
01:31:06.000
don't think that guy could exist because everyone would go i think there's something wrong with that guy
01:31:11.680
there's something wrong with him you know people said there's something wrong with that guy when he
01:31:16.500
came out like uh there's people who said you know sort of like uh people would get she's off they would
01:31:22.800
take his patience with kids not as perverse necessarily but kind of as an insult you know
01:31:29.660
there's this guy in a chicago newspaper who wrote you know any self-respecting father just wants to
01:31:33.740
punch mr rogers in the nose so uh you know like it really like challenges people like they take
01:31:42.320
you know sort of his gentleness and his caring to be you know sort of like an implicit why aren't you
01:31:48.580
doing better which is not what he's trying for but you know if it does in fact challenge you to do
01:31:53.060
better to tap into your inner mr rogers then you know like you're going to be better off like i have
01:31:59.160
you know just like watching the show once a day and you know sort of like saying to myself now and
01:32:05.260
then hey you know sort of like can i be a little more patient with people can i listen better can i
01:32:10.680
get in touch with these very basic messages that like he taught me when i was a kid
01:32:14.840
that i like forgot about and put away like it improves my life but he wasn't i mean he wasn't
01:32:20.900
like sesame street he wasn't a runaway smash was he well i mean uh sesame street got even bigger even
01:32:30.160
faster but he was in fact uh you know sort of like he took off uh that you know it was a show that
01:32:37.320
started off on like a you know sort of like a local uh public television in pittsburgh and then it
01:32:43.300
went to other cities and they would uh pretty soon they would just be getting thousands of fan letters
01:32:48.100
when they were early on when they didn't uh necessarily have enough budget to do the show
01:32:52.780
um the you know sort of they found out that you know sort of like the mothers in uh like
01:32:58.180
different areas were just like going door to door raising money for the show and they would show up
01:33:03.160
in like boston chicago and los angeles and say oh like mr rogers is making a personal appearance
01:33:08.040
and the stations would be overwhelmed because thousands and thousands of families would show up
01:33:12.120
so pretty quickly you know sort of even if he's not on adults radar kids connected with him they're
01:33:18.400
like oh this is the guy who cares about me and is looking at me and telling me that you know sort of
01:33:23.740
like he's happy that i'm there and i made today's special and that's just something magical so you look at
01:33:28.360
him and the way he spoke uh was just very different um and you'll hear people say don't talk to your kids
01:33:39.260
as if they're you know morons uh now i know he was going for he was going for a younger a younger
01:33:46.340
audience obviously um but was that what was that tone that he spoke to the kids about is that the way
01:33:55.100
he always was with adults and natural cadence that's the way he was with adults and you can see if you've
01:34:03.200
seen uh the new movie with tom hanks like who does in many ways a very nice job you can see he's
01:34:08.040
fighting to slow down his natural speech pattern that it's not how most people speak but that was
01:34:15.200
what he did and he was very comfortable with silence he would take out the radio in his car
01:34:19.780
because you know he just wanted to be alone with his thoughts he uh one of my favorite sequences on
01:34:25.240
the show ever was just he fills up a fish tank with water it's about three minutes not much happens
01:34:29.560
but just like you know he's just hanging out with the kids in the camera and you know sort of like
01:34:34.560
we're just going to be here and watch the fish tank fill up he is um uh a obviously very mentally
01:34:41.260
uh healthy individual that likes silence very few people like and can handle silence nobody
01:34:49.740
nobody who is um you know nobody who is who is struggling with things uh will take the radio out
01:34:58.640
of their car yeah i mean the term in your business is dead air you know sort of like uh and if you
01:35:04.260
think about it you know sort of like that's obviously a judgment it's not you know sort of
01:35:08.200
quiet time or like contemplative but dead air so you know like people say that's death when you know
01:35:14.740
there's not something filling every second so um who owns the rights to mr rogers does his family
01:35:21.780
still own it um it's uh there's a non-profit uh the foundation uh which uh now does the uh show uh
01:35:30.680
daniel tiger's neighbor okay so so somebody is paying somebody for all of these you know portrayals
01:35:38.680
of him and and everything else because i'm i'm wondering it's it's just it's almost so far out of the
01:35:45.220
blue and maybe that's why it's so successful because he's the anti today or was it kind of or
01:35:52.860
was it kind of like you know it's a wonderful life oh there's no copyright on this where you just play
01:35:58.100
this all the time people are really really responding to this and you can see just in the last couple of
01:36:03.240
years and i think you know like whoever you are or like uh you know like however you feel about
01:36:09.420
like sort of politics in the world you can see things are getting louder and they're getting like
01:36:14.420
nastier and cruder and you like look at reality television you look at how people interact with
01:36:19.880
each other and it just feels like in our lifetimes you know like the dial keeps going up and there's
01:36:26.240
just more hostility in the air than there used to be and so i think people just like crave mr rogers
01:36:32.540
it's like a glass of cold water uh that you know you say oh it doesn't have to be like this all the time
01:36:39.200
i can actually you know even if i don't control the mass culture i can control what's
01:36:44.400
going on like in my family and in my neighborhood and how i react to people and that's i think why
01:36:49.880
there's so much interest in him and like the renewed love for him in the last couple of years so he's a
01:36:55.000
um he's a pendulum swing that we hope will catch on uh bigger than just going to see him at the
01:37:01.540
movies or reading about him in your book he's a pendulum swing that we're we hopefully will go
01:37:08.080
you know and sometimes pendulums swing not just because of like one big apocalypse event but
01:37:16.120
because lots of people decide to push just a little in the same direction you know sort of if uh more
01:37:21.460
people just like take a moment to you know sort of like be kind uh to you know sort of like slow down
01:37:27.780
and like listen to their kid and stuff like we gotta go we gotta go we gotta go right then you know
01:37:32.060
like that's to the good do you think that show could exist today it barely was able to exist then
01:37:38.920
like it was this weird fluky thing that you know sort of like he got into uh public television uh you
01:37:46.140
know sort of at just the right time when they had you know sort of like hours that needed to be filled
01:37:50.780
and he had these gifts of you know sort of like he would been a puppeteer and he uh you know like he
01:37:56.800
wrote the music himself and he knew all these things he knew how to do a show uh but uh you know
01:38:03.500
and just because like well there's nothing else it's that or dead air um so i don't think you could
01:38:10.540
ever get that show on the air right now but i do think that somebody like him could come on and he
01:38:17.380
was such a natural communicator he would find a medium and he would still find a way to connect with people
01:38:23.000
uh any explanation on the name mr mcfeely ah um so that is actually you know sometimes people
01:38:31.400
raise their eyebrow and it's like is that a double entendre thing well i mean it's not i mean it's a
01:38:36.260
kid's show the guy is really soft-spoken and the mailman who comes in and talks to the kids from time
01:38:40.700
to time is mr mcfeely it's one of those things like when you look at michael jackson and you're like
01:38:45.840
keep it in the closet maybe we should have thought about that he was telling us something
01:38:52.700
so mcfeely was uh fred rogers middle name uh but more importantly it was uh the name of his
01:38:58.900
grandfather um the grandfather mcfeely who uh you know sort of one of the reasons like the fred
01:39:05.560
had such a connection with kids and was that he had a kind of an unhappy childhood he grew up in
01:39:10.660
privilege but he was chubby he was asthmatic he was awkward you know he was sort of just kind of
01:39:16.740
like shy and in many ways unhappy but somebody who just really showed him like love a lot of the
01:39:23.460
time was his grandfather who like would encourage him you know like hey you want to go have an
01:39:27.800
adventure go like climb these stone walls on the farm go do that it's going to be okay if you rip
01:39:32.680
your pants and he was the person who told him you know sort of you made today special just by being
01:39:38.480
here uh and that was something that meant so much to fred when he was a kid and something he was able
01:39:43.960
to pass on to kids so when he needed to name and like it was a tribute to his grandfather
01:39:48.380
so what's his family like his did he have children what are they like today um so uh he married his
01:39:57.780
college sweetheart um joanne rogers uh concert pianist um who you know sort of like uh they've
01:40:05.340
apparently had uh great good times together um she is uh you know sort of like a good human being
01:40:12.940
but less patient than uh fred rogers because who is as patient as fred rogers yeah yeah nobody
01:40:17.520
she'll talk about like oh you know sort of like uh i was out at the you know like getting the car
01:40:23.480
fixed and the guy was just like no good at all i don't even think he knew what he was doing and
01:40:27.380
he would say well maybe he was having a bad day and right i don't care about his bad day
01:40:31.880
what about me so uh and they had uh two boys uh who um you know sort of are basically private people
01:40:42.640
they're uh not particularly the public eye but they do an interview now and then in tribute to
01:40:46.920
their dad and uh decent people i mean i mean it seemed to work was he there for them yeah i mean he
01:40:55.240
was uh what people say is that he was like a very loving attentive father um and you know sort of
01:41:01.380
like in some ways he'd been training to be a father all his life um he was not very good at
01:41:06.040
disciplining them uh that you know sort of like you know very good at communicating and then but
01:41:11.520
you know like found it hard to be the authoritarian and that turned out to be uh you know mom's job in
01:41:16.520
that household gavin thank you so much great talking to you you can follow uh gavin enjoyed it uh me too

01:43:37.260
we're going to cam edwards in just a few minutes he's going to be telling us about what's going on in
01:43:41.000
virginia and it is remarkable and what's even more remarkable to me is this is something i have
01:43:46.120
never even seen even during the tea party this is bigger than the tea party movement what's happening
01:43:51.360
in in virginia the sanctuary cities the people are turning out in droves uh to stand up for the second
01:43:58.600
amendment and you know obvious reasons media is not really covering it we also had daniel hannon on
01:44:04.220
earlier today you have if you missed a minute of the show today you've missed a lot uh make sure you
01:44:08.820
listen to our podcast it's available uh anywhere uh you get your podcast um also tomorrow's podcast
01:44:15.440
is an interview with dave rubin is it not i think it is yeah uh so don't miss it podcast uh daniel
01:44:23.680
hannon was on today we talked a little bit about brexit and what happened in in uh in england with the
01:44:29.000
vote against uh labor and it was a bludgeoning for the labor party and a lot of people here in in the
01:44:36.880
on the left were looking at england and saying ah this is really going to be what it's going to be
01:44:41.800
like for us in america and if donald trump plays his cards right i think that's exactly what's going
01:44:49.100
to happen here in america have you been following this sort of back and forth between the senate and
01:44:53.920
the president where they're talking about how this investigation is going to go forward and what
01:44:59.720
mitch mcconnell seems to be saying is basically they're letting the president you know take the lead
01:45:05.120
here what do you what do you want to do they should yeah i mean it's it's a little weird i mean
01:45:10.560
supposedly this is a vote on whether he's going to be impeached or not so normally well he's going
01:45:16.120
to be impeached i mean they just voted for the articles removed yes they did out of committee and
01:45:21.580
so now it's got to go to the floor and next week they will vote for impeachment so he will be impeached
01:45:28.000
the trial means will he be convicted and removed from office so mcconnell is basically saying you
01:45:34.260
know i he's trying to i would say lose the uh argument against the senate that you might make
01:45:41.060
for example if they come out and just get this over with quickly and don't go into all this depth
01:45:46.940
he's trying to say look we're following the president's lead if he wants to do this fine if he
01:45:51.440
doesn't fine uh he wants to call witnesses fine if he doesn't fine that's the argument from the
01:45:56.540
senate and the left is saying wait a minute you can't let the guy who's in no trial design the
01:46:01.300
trial you can't so so what you're telling me is the republicans are shirking their responsibility
01:46:08.900
constitutionally in the senate they are mealy mouthed they are spineless individuals who will
01:46:16.880
just go along that does seem to be the case however exactly i agree with that i'm shocked i am shocked
01:46:24.120
at the very least they shouldn't be publicly saying right i mean i don't think it's a good idea to let
01:46:28.460
the president design the process they should do what they think is right right and you know but i
01:46:32.980
think what they're trying to say is basically win over trump supporters so they don't get blamed if
01:46:37.800
trump decides well i want to get this over with right now he's trying to he's trying to diffuse the
01:46:43.760
argument to trump supporters who are saying wait i want a big trial i want this investigated and the
01:46:49.220
president might might say and decide i don't want to go through all this let's get it over with and get on
01:46:53.720
with the election so what you're saying is the republicans are only playing politics not actually
01:46:58.820
yes but like i mean if it's the president's decision you know what do people say i i know
01:47:06.800
i know that the republicans should grow a spine and do the right thing that's what i said two weeks ago
01:47:14.880
and i'll continue to say back in just a second just trying to frustrate you still thank you and it
01:47:21.160
according to a reason i learned that from mr rogers according to a recent report 83 percent

01:49:05.000
the blaze podcast uh network we're glad you're here uh cam uh has been a first amendment um
01:49:12.800
rights guy for ever since i can remember um and uh has his podcast about it and i really want to
01:49:20.300
talk to him uh a second amendment uh and i i really want to talk to him about what's happening in
01:49:24.400
virginia and this this movement in virginia that is really getting very little attention
01:49:29.600
in the mainstream and that is the sanctuary cities movement cam the way i view this now i don't i
01:49:36.200
haven't been there so i haven't seen it i don't know if you have but i think this is more powerful
01:49:40.940
uh than the tea party turnouts that were happening even at its zenith
01:49:45.920
you know glenn i think that you're right and thanks so much for having me on the program and we now have
01:49:51.280
91 localities in virginia most of which are counties that have adopted these second amendment
01:49:57.980
sanctuary resolutions and i have been to about eight of these county board of supervisors meetings
01:50:02.700
where the resolutions have been discussed and i've never seen anything like this i mean you have
01:50:08.260
thousands of virginians who are showing up with their neighbors with their friends with their family
01:50:14.140
uh to urge these supervisors to to pass a a measure that says we don't plan on spending any county funds
01:50:21.580
enforcing unconstitutional gun control laws uh and you say you know this is got more energy than the
01:50:27.880
party movement i think it has at least as much energy and this is so hyper local uh this is you know
01:50:34.800
not a top-down movement that it really is incredible to see so what is the state of virginia doing what
01:50:42.180
are the democrats do first of all is this a right versus left issue or is this bipartisan these
01:50:49.440
turnouts you know i think it is largely a right versus left but i do know that there are democrats
01:50:56.860
who are showing up and democrats who are voting in support of these resolutions particularly in rural
01:51:01.140
virginia um you know i think it's a pro-gun anti-gun split honestly and the democrats in the state
01:51:07.900
quite frankly they're flipping out they don't know what to do uh congressman donald mckee
01:51:12.060
who represents virginia's fourth congressional district talked about how governor northam should
01:51:16.440
send out the national guard uh to enforce these new gun control laws in in counties that they refuse to
01:51:22.480
uh you know enforce gun bans or magazine bans uh governor northam has promised that there will be
01:51:27.820
some sort of unspecified consequences uh for counties that do not capitulate but so far uh is you know that
01:51:35.560
doesn't seem to be having any effect on the movement whatsoever so what do you suppose the people
01:51:40.420
of virginia will do if they send out the national guard to enforce something that is i mean it kills
01:51:49.320
me you know sanctuary cities are known uh as cities that are breaking the law and saying and defying the law
01:51:56.820
this this one is saying no no no it's a bill of rights issue and we're standing by the bill of rights
01:52:05.920
and the constitution and not letting you in what what do the what do the democrats think would happen
01:52:11.580
uh if they if they enforce it with with with uh some sort of national guard
01:52:18.880
i i i guess they assume that folks would comply uh but i just don't see that happening there are
01:52:26.280
so many county sheriffs we're now seeing commonwealth attorneys which are local prosecutors in virginia
01:52:31.420
uh that are also saying you know what we're not going to go out and we're not going to arrest anybody
01:52:36.020
uh for you know having a 20 round magazine or or we're not going to go out and seize anybody's guns
01:52:41.360
and ultimately i think that's what this comes down to the the governor and these anti-gun lawmakers
01:52:46.940
can put these laws on the books but they've taught us glenn how to resist over the last few years and
01:52:53.940
we're taking pages from their playbook we're doing exactly what they've done you know even in the state
01:52:58.580
of virginia there was a commonwealth attorney earlier this year in portsmouth virginia who
01:53:03.160
announced that she would be dismissing every misdemeanor marijuana case that was brought to her
01:53:07.860
office right and governor northam didn't complain he didn't uh threaten her with sanctions or said that
01:53:13.100
there would be consequences for her ignoring state law um so why would it be any different if we're
01:53:18.740
talking about uh you know not enforcing quite frankly a lot of these laws are unenforceable anyway but
01:53:24.120
not enforcing universal background checks or not enforcing a magazine ban uh i just don't see the
01:53:30.980
difference there and i think the democrats have have kind of painted themselves into a corner
01:53:34.660
look everybody says that you know uh we have to have universal background checks i don't understand
01:53:39.720
this is the most popular thing you can say as a democrat uh it's popular with the republicans the
01:53:45.920
independents and democrats cam we have those don't we we have those we've got background checks on
01:53:53.080
every retail sale of a firearm and what they want to do is they want to expand that to private
01:53:57.800
transfers even between family and friends so even though you know i think you and i uh met for the
01:54:02.340
first time back in 2003 um it would be illegal for me to even loan you a firearm if you came to visit me
01:54:10.160
uh in virginia it's it's absolutely absurd and you know glenn as far as the practical effects go
01:54:15.440
it sounds good on paper it polls really well but if you look at states where these laws have been put
01:54:20.460
on the books colorado for example passed their universal background check law in 2013 violent
01:54:25.800
crime is up more than 25 percent in the state of colorado since that background check law was put on
01:54:31.860
the books so if this is about public safety it doesn't work if it's about targeting legal gun owners
01:54:37.280
and i think that's what it's really about uh then that's enough for these gun control advocates
01:54:41.560
to push it so if the the governor decides to call out the national guard um which i do you think
01:54:47.920
that's realistic that that's even a realistic okay i i i don't i would be shocked um i i think
01:54:54.400
it's much more likely that the government where that the governor would try to use the virginia state
01:54:57.980
police uh that the attorney general would maybe use his office to come in and prosecute uh in
01:55:04.000
counties and take cases uh you know that the commonwealth's attorney or not but i i i would be
01:55:09.440
shocked and and um really really uh bitterly disappointed if the governor actually tried to do something like
01:55:15.900
send out the national guard and i think that would fail by the way i think that you know again the national
01:55:19.840
guard is made up in virginia of virginians yeah and i don't think those members of the national
01:55:24.540
guard are any more enthusiastic about enforcing these gun control laws than the county sheriffs
01:55:29.780
and a lot of local cops it's i mean this is something that people have talked about for a long
01:55:33.820
time you know if the army was ever turned against the american people would they shoot this is even
01:55:37.740
this is even harder to believe because as you said those are virginians and they would be enforcing
01:55:44.660
a law on virginians and most of those people are probably second amendment right people uh and i just
01:55:52.240
i mean that's a big test uh to to lose especially it is but again i like i said i think they've painted
01:56:00.260
themselves into a corner here i mean even if you get into prosecuting uh individuals for you know
01:56:05.420
violating these new gun laws that they want to put on the books you know there were i think it was
01:56:09.520
rockingham county there were about 3 000 people who crammed into a high school gymnasium and about
01:56:13.800
another 3 000 who couldn't fit uh who were outside the other night i'm looking at that and i'm thinking
01:56:19.760
you know are any of those people if they serve in a jury pool are they going to convict their neighbor
01:56:25.600
are they going to convict the person who owns the hardware store that they visit on a weekly basis i i don't
01:56:31.540
think that they will and so whether it's through you know a jury nullification whether it's through
01:56:37.640
the second amendment sanctuary resolutions whether it's through the discretion that law enforcement
01:56:42.280
already has i i just don't see a way for these gun control laws to be fully enforced across the state
01:56:50.700
of virginia i think they're going to be enforced in deep blue areas i think we're going to see exactly
01:56:55.120
what we've seen in places like new york state for example after they passed the safe act
01:56:59.000
the majority of prosecutions under that gun control package take place in two boroughs of new york city
01:57:04.380
the bronx and brooklyn and the vast majority of people who are prosecuted are young black men with
01:57:09.800
no violent criminal history who are sent to prison for three and a half years for simply possessing a
01:57:14.320
firearm without a license and i think it's going to be young minority men in in low-income neighborhoods
01:57:19.780
who are primarily going to be impacted by these gun control laws in virginia uh and i don't know that
01:57:25.040
that's the legacy that uh you know governor blackface northam really wants to leave uh kim have you heard
01:57:30.540
the uh case in illinois of the woman who is trying to uh defend herself she was in her car she had a
01:57:38.440
gun she has license to have a gun not license to carry but she had it in her glove box her husband her ex
01:57:44.360
comes is uh threatening her life trying to get into the car trying to hurt her she takes her gun out she
01:57:50.780
shoots he gets uh what was it a ten thousand dollar bail she has a seventy five thousand dollar bail
01:57:57.300
where is the common sense here there is none unfortunately um and yeah i i'm very familiar
01:58:04.560
with this story uh i've actually learned a couple of additional uh pieces of information including the
01:58:08.880
fact that this guy apparently has been convicted of battering this woman in the past on a couple of
01:58:13.460
occasions um i did learn that the woman uh was able to bond out uh thankfully so she's she's back out
01:58:20.140
but again it's absolutely egregious that the the state of illinois and the state's attorney in
01:58:24.960
illinois would look at this case and decide that that this woman who acted in self-defense and police
01:58:29.380
say she acted in self-defense that this woman should face a higher bond than the guy who beat her in her car
01:58:36.660
um it's uh uh the holiday and um i just want you to know we're praying for for you and missy how is she
01:58:46.380
doing she's doing she's doing okay she's enjoying the holidays right now she's actually not on uh

any form of treatment at the moment she was in a clinical trial for her non-small cell lung cancer
01:58:57.120
but she had some side effects so she had to get off of it so uh her oncologist said you know look
01:59:02.300

reverend doctor colonel back back i am how dare you i am a reverend of the church of universal life
02:02:37.720
modesto california i am a doctor of humanities liberty university and i am a kentucky colonel
02:02:46.780
like colonel sanders a real that's a real thing kentucky colonel and is that just from because your
02:02:52.780
appearance you look like no you don't have to look like colonel sanders to get it you have to be given
02:02:57.180
that by the governor of the great state of tex of uh kentucky and uh that happened years ago in the
02:03:05.020

02:03:09.960
can shut up now but again you can say it politely to me reverend dr colonel sanders back okay uh let's
02:03:20.520
just play a little bit from uh from cuomo getting slapped down uh by the former a former attorney
02:03:26.840
general uh about the coverage of cnn but first i want to remind you what comey had said just a couple
02:03:36.880
of days ago last saturday about the fisa process listen i have total confidence that the fisa
02:03:43.500
process was followed and that the entire case was handled in a thoughtful responsible way by doj and
02:03:50.260
the fbi i think the notion that fisa was abused here is nonsense it's nonsense well that's not what
02:03:56.720
the inspector general found and found he found that it was incredibly uh flawed and disturbing
02:04:04.220
to all americans is what uh he felt everyone should uh should view this as here is a former ag for the
02:04:13.460
bush administration on cnn's prime time with cuomo listen to this in terms of logic of thought and
02:04:18.180
argument why this insistence on denying what was pretty well established through the testimony by
02:04:24.240
respectable people about what happened here and why it happened why isn't the stronger argument for
02:04:31.260
republicans look what he did was not textbook uh maybe that's because he's not a politician it was
02:04:37.560
even wrong in some ways but they got the aid he never got any dirt on the bidens the election is safe
02:04:44.720
how can this be worthy of impeachment or removal from office why deny everything that is there's a lot
02:04:52.080
more going on than just denying everything number one they're making the points that you made number
02:04:57.020
two there is still i think some legitimate question about whether uh what was happening
02:05:02.760
at burisma which was a crooked operation as a great deal of the ukraine is uh didn't warrant
02:05:09.800
some taking a look except uh to keep it away from the absurd the country's watching this right now it's
02:05:16.060
about what is the standard of behavior you have the republicans pointing the finger at the left and
02:05:20.420
saying you guys are just purely political you hate the president that's gratuitous because the person
02:05:24.880
who uses hate and animus is our president but they haven't made any good faith effort to do any
02:05:30.700
oversight as the constitutional demands as a duty they took an oath to uphold they've just been his
02:05:35.660
defense counsel bravo for him but bad for the process why not at least own what's obvious
02:05:40.620
what is the proper standard this is this is a this is an impeachment proceeding yes you don't remove
02:05:48.220
somebody from office for not meeting the proper standard for not displaying those qualities of mind
02:05:54.380
character and temperament that are appropriate to a president
02:05:57.460
i i i mean i don't cuomo is so they see the world through a funhouse mirror they're not reflecting
