The Glenn Beck Program - Climbing to Insanity ｜ Guests： Chris & Emily Norton

00:00:00.000 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:02.580 You know, I honestly, when I look at the news, I kind of feel like a mountain climber at Mount Everest.

00:00:08.700 It's like everything's got to stand in line, man.

00:00:11.860 Yeah, I know it's really important. You're going to get to the top of Mount Everest, but stand in line.

00:00:17.820 There's a lot of important stuff going on.

00:00:20.680 We're going to talk a little bit about Justin Amash.

00:00:22.980 We're going to talk about China and their weaponizing of rare earth minerals.

00:00:29.040 We are not in a trade war. We're in a war war.

00:00:33.280 And we'll explain that coming up in just a second.

00:00:36.760 Also, the latest on the abortion controversy.

00:00:42.980 Missouri is now going to be one day away from not having any abortion clinics in the state.

00:00:50.520 Congratulations, Missouri. Congratulations.

00:00:53.720 At the same time, Georgia is being threatened by Netflix and Hollywood.

00:00:57.880 Well, we're not going to do anything in Georgia.

00:01:00.680 Oh, to get Hollywood to spend money in our state, all we have to do is kill children.

00:01:07.300 Oh, well, that's a tough decision.

00:01:09.620 We start there in one minute.

00:01:12.240 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:17.540 Recent Gallup survey shows Americans are worried more now about burglary than almost any other crime.

00:01:24.220 And I think there's a reason for it.

00:01:26.120 Right now, we're living in a country where everybody's like, that's my stuff.

00:01:29.560 No, I that's my stuff.

00:01:32.000 No, it's not. You don't deserve it.

00:01:33.720 You see that. Did you see the lawsuit going on?

00:01:37.120 I think it's in New York where they are, where they systematically demoted white people because they were white and then gave their jobs to other people that were not qualified.

00:01:50.240 Finally, Martin Luther King's dream has come true.

00:01:52.680 Exactly.

00:01:53.580 That's exactly what he wanted.

00:01:55.280 As Al Sharpton said, it wasn't about a black man in the White House.

00:01:59.440 It was about the same stuff in everybody's house.

00:02:02.620 No, that was not his dream.

00:02:05.460 But anyway, everything is being stolen.

00:02:09.340 Everybody is claiming everything is theirs.

00:02:11.220 When they did an interview recently with a bunch of burglaries, burglars that were responsible for this really horrible string of burglaries in the town.

00:02:21.320 The the burglar said, well, this is our stuff.

00:02:25.340 We deserve it.

00:02:26.240 If you can't keep it, if you haven't even put an alarm system on your house, well, then it's ours and we deserve it more than you do.

00:02:34.980 It's crazy.

00:02:38.040 Simplysafebeck.com is the best way to secure your home and make sure that no burglar is getting in.

00:02:43.580 And if they do get in, they're caught immediately.

00:02:46.660 It's simplysafebeck.com.

00:02:48.800 I want you to do your own homework.

00:02:49.980 You're smart enough to figure this stuff out.

00:02:52.320 And I'm telling you, when you start looking into it, you're going to realize you've been ripped off.

00:02:56.100 If you have a burglary system by by these companies that have been selling you crap for a long time.

00:03:03.480 This is a different way to protect your house.

00:03:06.900 It is simplysafebeck.com.

00:03:09.600 You get a free video camera with it right now.

00:03:12.220 It's a security camera.

00:03:13.200 When you order, it's a hundred dollar value.

00:03:14.780 You get that free when you order.

00:03:16.800 Now, it's simplysafebeck.com.

00:03:19.120 That's simplysafebeck.com.

00:03:28.680 So where do you want to start, Stu, as we're standing on the summit about to reach the peak of Everest?

00:03:35.280 And it's crowded as we're looking at all of the stories.

00:03:38.400 They need a they need like a Wendy's or something up there.

00:03:41.280 Can I tell you something?

00:03:42.380 It's grotesque what it's turned into.

00:03:45.680 I mean, it's a lot of people want to do it, right?

00:03:48.600 I mean, a lot of people want to say they scaled Everest.

00:03:50.540 And at some point, so many people have scaled Everest.

00:03:53.400 No one wants to say they scaled Everest anymore.

00:03:55.980 Do you want to scale Everest and stand in line for your photo op?

00:04:00.180 It's like Disney.

00:04:01.680 It is.

00:04:02.360 It's grotesque.

00:04:03.060 Well, it's really just a, you know, this is a dumb complication.

00:04:06.880 But basically, there's only like a very short time you can actually do it.

00:04:10.060 Right.

00:04:10.160 And so they give away is, I mean, look, it's Nepal.

00:04:13.500 I know.

00:04:13.700 They're like, here, we have one thing, that giant hill over there.

00:04:16.960 I know.

00:04:17.480 Charge whatever we can.

00:04:18.520 Yeah.

00:04:18.660 They're charging $11,000 for the permit to do it.

00:04:21.260 And everybody's paying it.

00:04:22.420 Yeah.

00:04:22.600 So they're like, OK.

00:04:23.680 And this time it was a relatively short period, even shorter than normal.

00:04:26.540 So everyone rushed up there at the same time.

00:04:28.320 And you know that they're like, people are passing dead bodies.

00:04:31.420 Yeah.

00:04:31.700 Because you can't get dead bodies down.

00:04:33.240 It's like $70,000 to remove a body from the top of Mount Everest.

00:04:37.500 And people have died.

00:04:38.900 And so they just leave them there.

00:04:40.660 So you're like, hey, I'm going to get my photo op.

00:04:43.200 That's a dead body over there.

00:04:44.860 We'll just keep it out of the crop it out of the picture.

00:04:47.620 I mean, it's weird what's happening.

00:04:49.880 It is.

00:04:50.420 It is.

00:04:51.140 So I don't know that I would start with the Everest thing.

00:04:53.560 No, no, no.

00:04:54.280 Myself.

00:04:54.940 But I think the Missouri thing is significant.

00:04:58.560 Basically, there is a new moment in this abortion conversation that we're having right now.

00:05:06.660 Missouri has implemented some of the most restrictive abortion laws in America.

00:05:11.140 And, you know, obviously, this is all going to an eventual Supreme Court challenge of many different parts of Roe v. Wade, but also the entirety of it.

00:05:22.020 But Missouri has one abortion clinic left, and it is Planned Parenthood.

00:05:27.020 And they have been audited at Planned Parenthood.

00:05:30.360 And so Planned Parenthood is like they actually did have problems.

00:05:34.160 They went through the entire audit and they found significant issues.

00:05:38.580 Planned Parenthood gave them a plan.

00:05:41.040 And this is how we're going to correct those issues.

00:05:42.680 And the state's like, yeah, well, that doesn't look sufficient.

00:05:44.360 We want to have some interviews with some of the people who work there.

00:05:46.920 And Planned Parenthood is refusing.

00:05:49.540 They won't even let – they won't even be – like, think about this.

00:05:52.740 If you are an abortion supporter for a second, you are saying this is this fundamental right, and it's all about women's rights.

00:05:59.540 And then Planned Parenthood is saying, yeah, we're not going to let you interview our doctors to keep this clinic open.

00:06:05.440 They're saying, no, you can't interview them.

00:06:07.060 Now, God only knows what would happen if they did interview them because who knows what shady stuff they've been doing there and what they would admit to under questioning.

00:06:17.380 They may.

00:06:18.240 And that is probably why Planned Parenthood doesn't want them interviewed.

00:06:21.160 But if they don't interview them, the state is saying, well, if you don't go along with the process that we've outlined here, you are going to – your license is going to expire and we're not going to renew it.

00:06:30.140 So that expires, I believe, in one week.

00:06:33.280 Can you imagine any other business?

00:06:34.960 Can you imagine financial sector, car sector, anybody, when the state license you and you as a business say, no, you can't interview us on the license renewal.

00:06:48.720 No, you can't talk to any of us.

00:06:50.760 How dare you even think about talking to us?

00:06:53.940 Everybody would say, what are you doing?

00:06:56.080 Why are you doing that?

00:06:57.400 What are you hiding?

00:06:58.240 You know, and maybe they're not hiding anything.

00:07:00.880 Maybe it's just on principle.

00:07:02.200 But if you're a regulated industry, you imagine the cable company saying to Congress, you know what, we're not showing up.

00:07:10.940 You have to understand, though, Glenn, there's a fundamental principle of the left that they just don't believe in government regulation.

00:07:17.800 They don't want the government in the business of a doctor and patient relationship.

00:07:24.220 They want nothing to do with that.

00:07:25.980 Except for universal health care.

00:07:27.080 Well, yeah, and every other interaction, including things that you buy over the counter.

00:07:32.300 Right.

00:07:32.680 They want the FDA to basically block every new medication until the end of time.

00:07:38.560 Exactly right.

00:07:38.660 And they want to be able to sue every drug manufacturer every time someone has a negative side effect.

00:07:44.040 And sure, they want to do all of those things.

00:07:46.700 And they want to be involved in every aspect of your life from birth to death.

00:07:49.960 But this one thing, they are just basically Ayn Rand on.

00:07:54.480 Right.

00:07:54.740 They don't want any government interaction.

00:07:56.640 Imagine the left if the insurance industry or the drug manufacturing industry said, we're not taking any questions.

00:08:07.700 You can't question us.

00:08:08.880 How dare you even question us?

00:08:11.860 Can you imagine what they'd be saying?

00:08:13.960 Yeah, that doesn't happen.

00:08:14.880 It doesn't happen.

00:08:15.700 No, but they have special rights.

00:08:17.500 Planned Parenthood gets special rights because they're a protected political group.

00:08:21.640 And their case is basically they're harassing us.

00:08:23.820 They're coming up with these things, these crazy things that we have to do.

00:08:27.400 And we're not going to go along with them anymore.

00:08:29.420 But again, like if you're protecting a fundamental human right, like you say you are, surely interviews is not too far.

00:08:39.120 Right.

00:08:39.540 That's not too much to ask.

00:08:41.180 They're doing this because I think they think there could be a potential disaster if they get their employees in front of these people questioning.

00:08:48.660 Sure.

00:08:49.080 Who might think a little bit more about themselves and say, look, I'm going to be honest.

00:08:52.140 I don't want to get thrown in jail for lying about any of this.

00:08:54.780 So they may be honest.

00:08:56.060 And that is not what Planned Parenthood wants.

00:08:58.500 It'll be interesting.

00:08:59.200 This would be the first state since Roe versus Wade occurred to have zero abortion clinics in it.

00:09:04.040 They would have zero as of next week.

00:09:05.980 I have to tell you, it's this by the Democrats forcing this by taking such an extreme position.

00:09:15.840 They are forcing people that have never thought about it before, never wanted to think about it because it was in that safe, legal and right.

00:09:26.060 Rare category and people were happy living there.

00:09:29.140 You know, the vast majority, I shouldn't say vast, 50, 60 percent of Americans were happy living there.

00:09:37.840 Safe, rare, legal.

00:09:40.280 It just covered everything for most people in America.

00:09:44.620 And because they got away from safe, rare and legal to shout your abortion.

00:09:50.920 Abortions are great.

00:09:52.660 My best abortion happened.

00:09:54.300 The first abortion to where it was.

00:09:56.640 It's crazy.

00:09:57.980 It forced people to go.

00:09:59.560 Wait a minute.

00:10:00.020 Wait a minute.

00:10:00.460 Wait a minute.

00:10:01.240 That's life.

00:10:02.740 Now, wait a minute.

00:10:03.620 When does life actually start?

00:10:05.280 And we're having real deep conversations for the very first time.

00:10:11.900 And it may not be happening on the left, but it is happening on the right.

00:10:15.900 And that's why you're seeing states like Missouri say, you know, none, zero, because people are having this.

00:10:23.540 They have they have played this card because they believe that there is enough Americans who will say, oh, my gosh, look, they're trying to shut down all abortions.

00:10:36.280 I'm going to vote for the people who said, yeah, you can let the child die after birth.

00:10:42.880 I'm going to vote for them because of these extremists that don't want anything because they say it's life.

00:10:51.400 I'm sorry.

00:10:52.460 I don't think you're going to win.

00:10:54.740 I really don't.

00:10:55.780 I think Americans are fair.

00:10:57.620 They don't want to be involved in your life.

00:11:01.200 They don't.

00:11:01.720 They don't want to be involved in your decisions.

00:11:03.620 They under they have enough hard decisions to make on their own.

00:11:07.080 I don't know about you, but I'm dealing with my teenage kids and I don't need to mess with you.

00:11:13.920 Why am I getting involved in your life?

00:11:15.900 My life is enough.

00:11:17.660 I'd like somebody to help me out on mine.

00:11:19.580 I'm looking for some answers.

00:11:20.880 Yeah.

00:11:21.480 You know what I mean?

00:11:22.100 And I think that's where most people are.

00:11:24.240 But when you go so far where you're like, yeah, that's not even a kid.

00:11:29.680 What?

00:11:30.300 Right.

00:11:30.780 My abortion's biggest friend has always been the ability to drown out the thought about it.

00:11:37.240 Yes.

00:11:37.520 Right.

00:11:37.920 And so like you think about it, it's like people don't want to think about it.

00:11:40.280 Like you're in an apartment, right?

00:11:41.820 And you hear yelling and fighting in the next apartment through the walls.

00:11:46.980 Abortion's biggest friend has been America's unending ability to just turn up the music really loud and not hearing.

00:11:52.240 Right.

00:11:52.700 And so there's that's going on, you know, so because of our tolerance, because we don't want to get involved in somebody else's affairs.

00:12:01.300 Right.

00:12:01.720 And so that's your starting point.

00:12:02.980 Right.

00:12:03.660 However, when you hear the plate hit the wall and break and you hear a giant piece of furniture turnover and at that point, Americans, all right, I got to turn the music down and listen to this because what the hell is going on?

00:12:16.720 I got to call the cops.

00:12:17.620 Yep.

00:12:17.800 And that is where we are, I think, with abortion.

00:12:19.920 I think so, too.

00:12:20.800 They have come to the point where they are.

00:12:23.760 You can't ignore it anymore because of the extremes they're going to.

00:12:28.820 And that overall is a good thing.

00:12:30.500 I fear the idea that we're in a debate about the ninth month of pregnancy because, you know, because if you lose this overton window moves, you lose you lose this debate.

00:12:43.800 If if if people go numb on this, we are then killing children.

00:12:48.100 We are the next the next thing we debate is, you know, their health care is too expensive.

00:12:54.000 So just let them die.

00:12:55.660 I mean, that's what's going to happen because historically that's what happens.

00:12:59.740 And I think America is drawing the line.

00:13:02.300 I you know, I thought about this a lot last night and I listened to three different speeches.

00:13:09.900 I listened to George Washington's farewell address.

00:13:14.860 Eisenhower's farewell audio of Washington's.

00:13:17.560 That's amazing.

00:13:18.000 It's actually audio.

00:13:18.780 Somebody else read it.

00:13:19.600 But, yes, I did figure out so Washington's farewell address, Eisenhower's farewell address and Reagan's time for choosing.

00:13:29.880 And I want to work on this a bit for for tomorrow's broadcast.

00:13:33.520 But I will tell you that.

00:13:37.320 Everything that they said is happening now and everything that they were talking about is 100 percent reasonable, I believe, to our Democratic neighbors.

00:13:49.600 To those who vote Democrat, they will listen to these words.

00:13:54.760 If they are presented in the right way, they will listen to those words and go, yeah, that's true.

00:14:00.780 I agree with that.

00:14:02.500 Absolutely.

00:14:03.740 And and I remember in 2008, you might remember this.

00:14:08.200 We were so freaked out and I prayed so hard and I got two answers.

00:14:12.860 One, these are not enemies of yours.

00:14:15.160 They're enemies of mine.

00:14:16.740 Anybody who stands against freedom, basic human freedom, they're not enemies of yours.

00:14:22.320 Those are my rights.

00:14:24.280 I've lent it.

00:14:25.180 You're going to have to fight for them.

00:14:26.860 But those are my rights that I lend to you.

00:14:30.760 So be on my side.

00:14:32.480 I'm not on your side.

00:14:33.760 I'm on the side of rights.

00:14:35.100 Be on my side.

00:14:36.340 That was the first thing.

00:14:37.300 At the same time, I got another message, and that was their arrogance will be their undoing.

00:14:44.040 Don't worry.

00:14:45.240 Their arrogance will be their undoing.

00:14:47.580 And that's what we're seeing right now.

00:14:49.740 They are so arrogant.

00:14:51.580 They are so they so believe that they are in the majority because of the media and everything else that they're not afraid to say anything.

00:14:59.300 And they're saying the craziest damn stuff.

00:16:48.600 She is hysterical.

00:16:50.720 Have you seen what she wrote to Alyssa Milano and her, you know, not going to have sex, you know, make sure you don't have sex with your husbands until this has changed?

00:17:03.040 Did you see her tweet back?

00:17:04.480 Yeah.

00:17:04.960 I think I did.

00:17:05.840 Yeah.

00:17:06.100 Alyssa, have your husband call me.

00:17:08.900 I love that.

00:17:10.420 Which actually I think even Alyssa laughed at.

00:17:12.340 She did.

00:17:12.900 She actually liked that tweet.

00:17:14.700 It's kind of fun.

00:17:15.440 But, you know, we are, we're coming to a place where Bridget Phetasy is, she's not known as a conservative at all.

00:17:27.420 She's had a fascinating, fascinating life and has worked for Playboy magazine.

00:17:34.880 She's very outspoken on sex and everything else.

00:17:38.300 And she has a reason for it.

00:17:39.520 Her life story is incredible, but she has been rejected now.

00:17:45.420 I don't remember the first thing.

00:17:46.700 What was the first thing that happened?

00:17:48.420 But she's been rejected by the left because she is an independent thinker.

00:17:52.640 And I think she's one of those like Dave Rubin who is starting to go, wait a minute.

00:17:57.020 You know, I just kind of always thought I was a liberal and I'm not for any of that stuff.

00:18:05.200 And she's, she's waking up and I, and I think there are a lot of people like that.

00:18:11.120 And when I see, when I see Netflix come out and say, you know what, if, if Georgia, if you try to go and do that heartbeat law, well, we're not going to film there.

00:18:26.040 I think there's a lot of people that a are sick of Hollywood B are smart enough to go, wait a minute.

00:18:34.600 We're talking about a baby.

00:18:37.260 So you're asking me to turn a blind eye to killing babies or you'll give me money or if I don't turn a blind eye, you'll leave and you won't make your stupid show here.

00:18:55.220 Well, that sounds like a deal with the devil.

00:18:57.280 Cause even if you don't agree on the, the position of abortion, you obviously don't want to state making its decisions on its laws, especially on something as critical as life based on whether, you know, the next season of house of cards, which by the way, was, um, starred a guy who was molesting people all over the set.

00:19:16.200 Netflix all over the set.

00:19:17.840 Yeah.

00:19:18.360 Yeah.

00:19:18.660 You made a lot of money off of that one.

00:19:20.320 Did you donate that money?

00:19:21.480 Netflix?

00:19:22.060 Did you?

00:19:22.980 Cause I don't remember the, I don't remember the big story about how you donated all that money.

00:19:27.280 Uh, from all the profits from house of cards that you made, which basically launched your entire company and a run of a giant party of molestation of at times, underaged boys.

00:19:40.400 That whole thing doesn't, didn't seem to make you make any decisions as far as money goes.

00:19:45.560 Yeah.

00:19:45.980 You changed out the actor, actress on it on the last season and you apparently fired anyone who had any ability to write.

00:19:54.660 Cause I don't know what the hell happened to that last season.

00:19:56.720 It was terrible.

00:19:58.480 Uh, but I mean, I don't know.

00:20:00.620 I think they all went to HBO and wrote the ending of a game of throw.

00:20:06.120 Shouldn't you be making your decisions as a state when it comes to your laws based on what's right and what's wrong, not based on extortion by Netflix.

00:20:14.320 For instance, I grew up out West.

00:20:16.240 So this probably did never registered on your radar and you're a little, uh, younger than I am.

00:20:20.960 Um, but I remember when the 55 mile an hour speed limit happened.

00:20:25.460 Okay.

00:20:26.360 Now back in the, in the East, it probably didn't mean that much because you went from 70 to 55 and quite honestly in Connecticut and Washington, everything.

00:20:36.220 And you're lucky to get to 55.

00:20:38.940 Okay.

00:20:39.520 On the highway.

00:20:40.100 But, but out West, they were, everybody was like, are you kidding me?

00:20:45.520 Do you know how long we're going to have to be on the highway to go visit somebody?

00:20:49.860 Because our States are enormous.

00:20:51.620 And the government said, we're going to withhold funds unless you do this.

00:20:57.740 People back then were upset.

00:21:00.260 And some States went, you know what?

00:21:01.920 Screw you.

00:21:03.120 That was over a speed limit thing.

00:21:06.200 This is life.

00:21:08.600 Hold your ground, Georgia, Missouri, hold your ground.

00:21:15.760 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

00:21:18.940 So I want to talk to you a little bit about relief factor.

00:21:21.360 If you're in constant pain, you are not alone because I was as well.

00:21:26.380 Inflammation is really what is at the root of so much of our pain.

00:21:31.060 And I can relate to you if you get up every morning and, and quite honestly, let me just speak, uh, frankly, uh, to guys and maybe women don't understand this, but I am with you.

00:21:43.080 If you are in so much pain, it is, um, emasculating and you have to ask your wife to help you do things.

00:21:51.360 That is just, it's horrible.

00:21:53.680 I can relate.

00:21:56.680 There is relief.

00:21:58.380 At least there was for me and 70% of the people who try this find relief.

00:22:03.360 And it is relief factor.

00:22:05.220 I want you to go to relieffactor.com.

00:22:07.520 Try it for three weeks.

00:22:08.940 It's $20.

00:22:10.000 Try it for three weeks.

00:22:11.180 If it doesn't work, stop taking it.

00:22:13.540 It works for 70% of the people who take it.

00:22:16.820 They go on to order more month after month, just like I do.

00:22:20.080 I've been taking it for over a year, three times a day.

00:22:22.860 A way to ease your pain and get your life back.

00:22:26.460 It's relieffactor.com.

00:22:28.100 That's relieffactor.com.

00:22:30.080 I want to introduce you to an amazing, amazing couple.

00:22:34.940 They have just, uh, been named the hottest event keynote speakers of 2018.

00:22:41.920 Uh, and that includes, you know, the likes of Mark Cuban and Barbara Cochran and magic

00:22:47.040 Johnson and everybody else you can think of.

00:22:49.840 Um, they are, uh, motivational speakers, I guess, but really the motivation I think just

00:22:56.300 comes from the way they live their life, Chris Norton, Emily Norton, author of the seven

00:23:01.760 longest yards.

00:23:03.080 Welcome to the program.

00:23:03.980 How are you?

00:23:04.580 Good.

00:23:05.040 Thanks for having us.

00:23:05.740 Yeah.

00:23:05.920 Thank you for having us.

00:23:06.920 So anybody who doesn't know you tell, tell me what the seven longest yards are.

00:23:11.640 Yeah.

00:23:11.960 So the seven longest yards, it came from this goal that I said, I'm going to walk Emily

00:23:17.320 seven yards down the aisle of our wedding side by side, which, you know, listening, you

00:23:21.960 probably think that should be easy.

00:23:23.460 Well, in 2010, as a 18 year old kid, I was playing college football and I was running

00:23:29.800 down to make the tackle and I see the opening, just a routine tackle, but I missed time my

00:23:34.860 jump just by a split second.

00:23:36.900 And so instead of getting my head in front of the ball carrier, my head collides right

00:23:40.100 with his legs.

00:23:41.260 And, um, instantly I lose all feeling and movement from my neck down.

00:23:45.100 And I was given a 3% chance to ever regain any feeling or movement back below the neck after

00:23:50.200 suffering a severe spinal cord injury, which I, at the time I felt like my life was over.

00:23:55.100 And eventually it, you know, it led to meeting Emily and then setting this goal that we're

00:23:59.940 going to walk down the aisle for a wedding.

00:24:01.540 And actually the walk down the aisle ended up being the easiest part of our journey.

00:24:08.160 And your journey, you guys met three years after, right?

00:24:12.140 And, um, you went through some dark times as well.

00:24:17.520 Tell me about that.

00:24:18.640 Yeah.

00:24:18.840 So after college, I went through a dark time of depression and suffering with anxiety.

00:24:23.560 And, um, I've always had just a big passion and a heart for helping kids, kids who have

00:24:28.240 been abused, neglected, um, without families just had this big passion for kids in foster

00:24:33.240 care and struggling with those things.

00:24:34.740 So I always took that on my own shoulders and had this responsibility that it was my

00:24:39.660 responsibility to help these kids.

00:24:41.400 And instead of letting it out, I kept it in.

00:24:44.860 Um, and it really wore on me.

00:24:46.580 I started not caring as much, stopped feeling, um, and just started losing me.

00:24:52.300 Uh, honestly, I thought I would never be me again.

00:24:54.540 Like I thought I was gone.

00:24:55.680 Emily was gone forever.

00:24:57.240 Um, no hope.

00:24:58.560 And I suffered for way longer than I should have because I was very against getting help.

00:25:03.180 I felt like I had to do it myself.

00:25:05.480 Yeah.

00:25:05.680 Um, very independent.

00:25:07.280 Uh, felt like if I got help, that that was weakness and that it's crazy.

00:25:11.620 It is.

00:25:12.200 When you change that one viewpoint that it is a strength to ask for help, not weakness.

00:25:19.660 Everything changes.

00:25:20.620 A hundred percent.

00:25:21.340 Yeah.

00:25:21.740 That's exactly what it was.

00:25:22.980 Being able to just come to that realization that you have to ask for help, but you have

00:25:26.820 to depend on God.

00:25:27.840 There's nothing wrong with that.

00:25:29.060 And it does.

00:25:29.400 It takes more strength to ask for help and admit like something's going on and it shouldn't

00:25:33.820 be.

00:25:34.320 Um, but another thing that was holding me back from help was I didn't think that I could

00:25:38.020 be depressed.

00:25:38.580 Why would I be depressed?

00:25:39.820 Never gone through anything difficult.

00:25:41.500 Right.

00:25:42.160 So I didn't understand at all.

00:25:43.800 Um, I understood that other people who went through hard things could get depressed.

00:25:47.080 But for me, like I had this, there's no way that doesn't make sense.

00:25:49.820 Um, so I just kept pushing through it and, um, don't like being vulnerable.

00:25:53.740 And so I shoved it all inside all of the things that just create a disaster and so much more

00:26:00.500 struggles than I should have been.

00:26:01.780 And it lasted for a few years because of those views.

00:26:05.060 And where were you in that recovery when you, when you two met online?

00:26:09.600 Yeah.

00:26:10.060 So, I mean, so that was before any of this started.

00:26:13.680 Um, I was at a really good place when we met online and it was actually right after the

00:26:17.860 graduation walk that it really hit me.

00:26:20.600 Um, I had some signs before, but we stayed so busy with working hard and focusing on

00:26:25.300 the graduation walk.

00:26:26.360 But after the graduation walk and after it went viral, when everything was going so great,

00:26:30.740 it just, I went down and I hit the, hit the bottom with where I was at.

00:26:36.420 Tell me about the graduation walk.

00:26:38.540 Yeah.

00:26:38.680 So this was the first big goal of mine.

00:26:40.720 After my injury, I set the goal.

00:26:43.240 I want to walk across the stage on my college graduation.

00:26:46.040 They know how I was going to do it, but I was going to work as hard as I possibly could

00:26:49.200 each and every day.

00:26:50.400 And I told Emily about this goal when we first met and she was just as excited as this

00:26:56.180 goal as I was.

00:26:57.480 And she became my personal trainer, my, my best personal trainer that I've ever had.

00:27:01.460 And, uh, uh, we just worked relentlessly for this walk across the stage, which I thought

00:27:07.260 in my mind, I got to walk as fast as I can.

00:27:09.560 So I don't get booed off the stage and people are like checking the clock.

00:27:13.280 Like it's hot in the gym, like graduations are long and I'm like, Oh man, I gotta, I

00:27:18.680 gotta book it across there.

00:27:20.300 And so when I, we start going across the stage, um, this a roar of just cheering and, um, clapping.

00:27:28.480 And then I finally get across and I look out and the whole room, they're just, everyone's

00:27:33.120 crying.

00:27:33.800 I just couldn't believe the reaction, the response.

00:27:37.000 And then eventually that video goes viral and it just takes, people are still crying

00:27:41.560 every time they see it.

00:27:42.480 I'm about crying with just hearing you saying, um, now, so you guys didn't just get through

00:27:49.220 your own little struggles.

00:27:51.460 You have taken 70.

00:27:53.620 How old are you?

00:27:55.060 26, 27, 27, 27.

00:27:57.700 You have had 17 foster kids and adopted five.

00:28:03.660 Yes, we have.

00:28:04.880 What the hell is wrong with you?

00:28:07.880 Five girls.

00:28:08.480 You really haven't recovered from eating that guy's leg.

00:28:11.000 No, I haven't.

00:28:12.020 Maybe I had a brain injury too.

00:28:15.580 17 and adopted five.

00:28:18.300 We have.

00:28:18.820 Yeah.

00:28:19.080 It's, we love it.

00:28:20.480 And I mean, when we first started, we're like, we'll take one kid and got a different

00:28:25.560 plan and kept stretching us.

00:28:27.180 And it is absolutely, it's become both of our passions.

00:28:30.400 And we love just being able to help kids in these hard situations.

00:28:33.660 No, they're loved.

00:28:35.120 They're special.

00:28:36.180 God has an amazing plan.

00:28:37.880 Um, and it takes a lot of work.

00:28:39.240 There's a lot of hard moments, but when you can just stay there and show the kids are not

00:28:43.040 alone.

00:28:43.480 So many of the struggles I went through helped me to know how to, to help the kids and to

00:28:47.700 how to be there.

00:28:48.640 Um, so that they don't feel alone.

00:28:50.620 And when they're trying to push you away to push back harder, uh, but it's been absolutely

00:28:55.120 amazing.

00:28:55.540 I have a, I have a 15 year old son who I'm having a heck of a time with right now.

00:29:01.140 And it is, it's the hardest thing I've ever done is raise my son.

00:29:07.160 Uh, and just no matter how hard he pushes back to be there, that's one.

00:29:13.980 And look at me, I'm 23.

00:29:19.120 I mean, it's insane.

00:29:21.260 How do you, how do you push through it with 17 and five now adopted?

00:29:29.280 Yeah.

00:29:29.580 I, you know, Emily's like one woman without the cape.

00:29:33.020 Like she just like, the more kids we get, the more energy she has.

00:29:36.560 Like, I don't know how she does it, but I mean, I'll never forget the first time she's

00:29:40.020 like, when we say like, Hey, one child, like under the age of two.

00:29:43.300 And she's like, Chris, what about two?

00:29:44.740 I'm like kids.

00:29:45.560 I'm like, no way we can do two kids.

00:29:47.360 That's insane.

00:29:48.060 And then eventually worked our way up to seven.

00:29:50.340 But, um, you just like, when you take on more than what you think you can handle, that's

00:29:55.540 when you can realize your potential.

00:29:56.900 And so we just keep finding out that the more we take on, you just figure it out and

00:30:02.900 you just do it.

00:30:03.720 Yeah.

00:30:03.860 And I mean, I would say a big thing too, is not taking it on your shoulders.

00:30:07.400 What I learned when I went through the depression, like I learned to depend on God and put everything

00:30:11.440 on him instead of keeping it on myself because you have to meet the kids where they are, but

00:30:15.980 then did not let it bring you down.

00:30:17.760 But instead like feel enough where you can still get into action and do every single thing

00:30:21.980 you can every single day and let go of what's out of your control.

00:30:24.940 There's so much out of your control.

00:30:26.300 So, um, just knowing and focusing on what we can do and letting the rest go has been

00:30:31.980 very, very helpful to be able to do it.

00:30:33.660 So have you, have you guys, have you, I want to phrase this carefully, um, have you guys

00:30:41.480 failed in ways that you would have described as a failure 10 years ago and been able to

00:30:50.820 walk away going, we did everything we could and that's a success.

00:30:54.780 Yeah.

00:30:55.340 I mean, I would say that there's been moments where you feel like we would have previously

00:30:59.840 felt like, you know, we're failing.

00:31:01.340 Um, but you just, when you do absolutely everything you can do and you focus on that and change

00:31:06.480 your perspective to that, um, it really helps a lot to know, um, because obviously some of

00:31:12.400 the kids that we've had in our home have had a lot of behavioral problems and we've seen

00:31:16.320 transformations, but then there's other times that you wish you could do more.

00:31:19.400 You wish that you could change more.

00:31:21.040 Do you get to a point to where you're like, I don't know.

00:31:24.220 I've done everything.

00:31:25.280 I know how I don't know what else to do.

00:31:30.180 Yes.

00:31:30.900 You get to that, you get to that point, but what's kind of special too, when you stay after

00:31:35.660 it and you stay persistent, uh, like in that moment of like, nothing's working, like we're

00:31:40.300 failing.

00:31:40.660 And then like months later, the kid or the child will refer to something that you said

00:31:46.100 months ago that you thought they weren't getting at all, like nothing that you were saying what's

00:31:51.240 registering.

00:31:51.700 And then they apply something that you were trying to teach them months later.

00:31:56.900 And you see little moments like that, that you can see the progress and you just focus

00:32:01.620 on that progress and just chipping away at it because it's not an overnight thing.

00:32:08.000 Like it's not something that you snap your fingers and, uh, all the abuse and trauma that

00:32:13.160 they experienced and all the wiring that they've undergone is just gone.

00:32:17.760 It takes a lot of time, a lot of moments.

00:32:20.400 I will tell you, I'm in my fifties, uh, even though I look 22, uh, and I, uh, you don't

00:32:28.960 need to laugh at that.

00:32:29.560 No, I just, uh, and I, uh, or is it 72?

00:32:33.300 And, uh, uh, I still struggle for wisdom and I'm listening to you too with such deep wisdom

00:32:43.560 that really comes, you can't read wisdom in a book.

00:32:47.720 You can read it in a book, but that's not where it comes from.

00:32:50.220 It comes from you actually experiencing it.

00:32:53.200 Do you think you would be anywhere close to who you are or where you are, had it not been

00:33:01.440 for your accident and your deep depression?

00:33:03.700 No, absolutely not.

00:33:05.040 There's no way that I would be able to be a foster parent.

00:33:07.780 We've heard most unimaginable things with these kids and what they've gone through.

00:33:11.900 And previously with how I was able to cope with that, I mean, honestly, it sent me into

00:33:15.840 the depression and I couldn't handle it.

00:33:17.580 And so now I know exactly how to handle, I know how to let go of what's out of your

00:33:22.840 control and don't get me wrong.

00:33:24.740 There are moments that I don't like anybody.

00:33:26.840 Um, and it's a battle.

00:33:27.980 You just have to battle it.

00:33:28.780 You have to fight it.

00:33:29.360 And you just have to keep remembering that, um, if you do what you can do as best as you

00:33:34.620 know how and work every day, um, things do start changing and turning around.

00:33:39.420 Yeah.

00:33:39.920 And now for me, like if I could go back and change that play that paralyzed me, I wouldn't

00:33:45.020 do it because I found a life and a purpose worth living for.

00:33:48.580 And I can see and use my pain for a purpose.

00:33:52.360 And it gives me life and, um, inspiration knowing that my struggles can help somebody

00:33:58.140 else through their own pain and struggles.

00:34:02.460 You two are remarkable, truly remarkable.

00:34:06.240 And, um, as a man who has, um, hit, uh, lows and has been blessed by a good wife, you're

00:34:27.440 a great woman and you are greatly blessed.

00:34:30.680 You're greatly blessed and vice versa, vice versa.

00:34:35.140 So she's wet on my leg.

00:34:38.160 Yeah.

00:34:38.560 I think, uh, good women usually are out of, out of our league.

00:34:42.300 Um, thank you so much.

00:34:44.140 Thank you so much for being here.

00:34:45.580 Yeah.

00:34:45.840 Thanks for having us.

00:34:46.920 How can we follow you?

00:34:48.060 How can we follow your adventures?

00:34:49.780 Um, well, I know, uh, Instagram, Facebook, you know, we have our book coming out, the

00:34:54.320 seven longest yards, um, which shares our struggles and our journey.

00:34:58.340 But, you know, Instagram, Chris a Norton 16 is a great way to follow me.

00:35:02.660 And that's my handle all across social media.

00:35:05.220 Chris Norton.org is my website.

00:35:07.380 Yeah.

00:35:07.860 And then mine for Instagram and Facebook is Emily Summers Norton.

00:35:11.020 And we do, we try to like our life purpose is just to help people realize like you're

00:35:15.000 not alone.

00:35:15.480 Like everybody goes through hard things.

00:35:17.320 So many people have looked at me and thought I've had everything together.

00:35:20.220 Like so many comments of you're perfect.

00:35:22.440 There's nothing going on.

00:35:23.680 And I hit everything and you have no idea what someone else is going through.

00:35:27.500 Chris, you see his challenges.

00:35:28.720 He's in a wheelchair.

00:35:29.780 Every single one of us struggles.

00:35:31.820 Every single one of us hits those low points.

00:35:33.900 And what it's about is just fighting to get out of it and knowing it's a strength to get

00:35:37.720 help.

00:35:37.960 Like you said, everyone is in their own wheelchair.

00:35:41.580 Just most of ours are invisible.

00:35:43.740 Yeah, absolutely.

00:35:44.680 You know, and when I found this out, when I was an alcoholic, I, I hid everything.

00:35:49.660 I was very good functioning alcoholic.

00:35:52.960 And I said things on the radio that I thought were going to destroy my career.

00:35:57.300 Cause I, I was, I was done with radio.

00:35:59.360 I'd done it for 20 years and I was done with it.

00:36:00.940 It's back in the nineties.

00:36:02.460 And I said the worst things about me.

00:36:05.300 Cause I was viewed as this, you know, clean cut kind of guy and I was anything but, and

00:36:11.360 I exposed who I was and what I was struggling with.

00:36:16.560 And the opposite happened.

00:36:19.140 I realized the more we're honest with each other, the more we tell, the more we realize

00:36:25.400 I could disagree with you on everything, but we are exactly alike.

00:36:30.260 We are exactly alike.

00:36:32.400 I'm privileged to people to see my challenges.

00:36:35.180 People are kind and so helpful to me because they see what I'm going through.

00:36:40.080 And I appreciate that, but we can do that to everyone and all the challenges that we're

00:36:44.460 facing would be a better world.

00:36:46.520 Chris and Emily Norton, um, the Chris Norton, uh, foundation, chrisnorton.org.

00:36:53.080 And the book is the seven longest yards you can pre-order now.

00:36:57.560 Thank you guys so much for being here.

00:36:59.140 Thank you for having me.

00:36:59.960 God bless.

00:37:00.340 Thank you.

00:37:00.800 Yeah.

00:37:01.140 God bless.

00:37:01.960 All right.

00:37:02.520 Uh, let me tell you a little bit about our sponsor this hour.

00:37:05.300 It is car shield car shield.

00:37:07.420 If, uh, you know, my, my grandfather used to work on his truck.

00:37:12.000 My uncle used to work in his truck.

00:37:13.580 My father was as, as dumb as I am when it comes to mechanical things.

00:37:18.180 So we didn't, we just looked at the car and went, Oh crap.

00:37:21.700 You know how much that's going to cost.

00:37:23.360 That's kind of where everybody is now.

00:37:25.160 Cause you can't work on your car.

00:37:26.820 Um, you have to take it in and just one stupid chip can cost you thousands of dollars.

00:37:33.560 If your car is out of warranty at 5,000, 150,000 miles on, it doesn't matter.

00:37:39.100 I've got two trucks that I'm going to, I'll have until the doors fall off.

00:37:43.280 They're what?

00:37:44.060 10, 12 years old, eight years old.

00:37:46.460 Uh, the other one.

00:37:47.560 And, uh, I just brought one of them in just for an oil change.

00:37:51.440 Six grand I was facing.

00:37:54.920 I didn't even have to worry about it cause they called car shield.

00:37:57.480 They knew I had car shield and it was covered.

00:37:59.560 And when I got there to pick it up, they were like, yeah, we had to do some extra things.

00:38:02.940 It was $6,000.

00:38:03.920 I'm like, what?

00:38:05.360 Oh, it's all covered.

00:38:06.500 Car shield covered it.

00:38:07.620 That's the kind of warranty that you need.

00:38:10.080 And they can give you that, um, extended coverage.

00:38:13.640 Now at car shield, go to car shield.com.

00:38:16.020 Use the promo code Beck or call 800 car, 6,000, 800 car, 6,000 before you're facing a huge

00:38:23.100 bill, go to car shield.com.

00:38:25.720 Use the promo code Beck.

00:38:29.000 I personally can't believe we're still talking about the Mueller report, but we are.

00:38:33.040 Bob Mueller is going to speak today at 11.

00:38:36.460 Uh, that's Eastern time.

00:38:38.080 We will be carrying that live, uh, stations just so you know, he is.

00:38:42.880 It's, it's very interesting because it was, uh, announced and arranged by the department

00:38:49.540 of justice.

00:38:50.220 So this is not him saying, I want to hold a press conference.

00:38:53.160 There will be no questions.

00:38:55.180 He is just going to make a statement today.

00:38:58.020 And again, we'll be carrying that live, uh, stations.

00:39:01.260 And it is the first time he said anything since the investigation really began.

00:39:05.340 And it's going to be quite interesting, uh, how he threads this needle, what he has to

00:39:10.860 say coming up.

00:39:12.880 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:39:20.200 Well, there are, there is a lot going on, uh, today.

00:39:24.320 Mark Cuban wants to change the second amendment.

00:39:27.180 He says it's time to update it.

00:39:29.300 That's fantastic.

00:39:31.100 Uh, we have, um, some news on Howard Stern that I personally find fascinating.

00:39:38.440 I've read his new book, uh, and, and highly recommended, uh, and I, I find what he's going through

00:39:45.180 fascinating.

00:39:45.820 And, uh, his defense of those who have a conservative opinion is also fascinating.

00:39:55.280 Uh, Democrats and their policies are getting more and more bizarre.

00:40:00.900 And we finally, I think, can see over the horizon and tell you what's coming, not only with Europe, but also with China.

00:40:12.460 The trade war is an actual war.

00:40:16.520 And we'll talk about that in one minute.

00:40:19.440 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:40:24.060 A little bit first about the X chair.

00:40:26.340 This is the, these chairs we have in the studios.

00:40:29.000 Now I started with one and I got one, uh, for my TV set and I just loved it.

00:40:35.300 I've changed all the chairs here in the studio and they're just the best.

00:40:39.880 They are absolutely the best chair I've ever sat in for an office chair at your home or at your office.

00:40:46.580 I, I swear to you, I would, I would sit in one of these and sit back like this and watch a movie and I'm fully comfortable.

00:40:54.660 Oh yeah.

00:40:54.980 It's like a lazy boy.

00:40:56.200 It is.

00:40:56.560 I mean, and you can actually get work done in it.

00:40:58.340 I feel like when you say lazy boy, it's like people picture themselves falling asleep.

00:41:02.100 No, no, no.

00:41:03.400 It's a great chair.

00:41:04.800 And especially if you have like a home office, you got to invest in a great chair.

00:41:07.800 Got to have one.

00:41:09.000 You got to have one.

00:41:09.580 You're just going to be miserable your whole life.

00:41:11.240 So here's the deal.

00:41:25.660 So it's, it's not a problem.

00:41:27.040 And I think, you know, a chair is, is very personal.

00:41:29.240 It's like a bed.

00:41:29.860 You have to, you have to know, uh, and you have to sit in it yourself.

00:41:33.140 But I tell you, everybody who has sit in, uh, sat in this, we're all different shapes

00:41:36.800 and sizes.

00:42:03.780 Uh, and these wheels are fantastic, but this is all new ball bearings.

00:42:07.940 And this is just an remarkable chair, uh, xchairbeck.com.

00:42:12.760 Go there now, xchairbeck.com.

00:42:15.440 Yeah, there's a couple of things that we have to address.

00:42:27.620 First of all, the, uh, Mueller is actually going to be speaking in just under an hour.

00:42:32.360 We're going to be carrying that live stations.

00:42:34.800 Uh, so, you know, if it happens at the right at the top of the hour, when everybody is in

00:42:40.180 news, uh, we will, uh, delay it until the 06 and begin right, uh, right there, just station

00:42:47.680 note.

00:42:48.240 Uh, but this is the first time that Mueller has spoken since the report has come out.

00:42:54.160 And it's not something that he called.

00:42:57.000 Uh, he may have wanted to be, he may have been the impetus behind it.

00:43:00.420 He might've been the one saying, Hey, I want to, I want to say something.

00:43:03.520 Um, but it was called by the justice department.

00:43:06.420 So this is not him going rogue on his own.

00:43:09.180 This is through the justice department.

00:43:11.920 So it'll be interesting to see what he has to say.

00:43:14.720 Any thoughts on that?

00:43:16.900 We're bringing in, uh, uh, Jason, uh, buttrell, uh, who can, uh, go into a couple of other

00:43:23.820 topics that we're going to deal with here in a second, but bringing him in also chief researcher

00:43:28.560 of the program.

00:43:29.980 Stu, any thoughts on what he's going to say?

00:43:31.800 I mean, it's a statement, no questions, which is significant.

00:43:36.180 Uh, you'd think that if they were announcing it through the DOJ, it doesn't mean he's

00:43:40.980 going to say, by the way, I forgot to put this piece of evidence, you know, this video

00:43:44.360 of Donald Trump making out with Vladimir Putin in the report.

00:43:47.300 Like you can't imagine it's going to be something like that.

00:43:49.820 Um, but he may just want to clarify.

00:43:51.180 I mean, I know one of the big things, oddly, one of the biggest focuses of the aftermath

00:43:55.660 of the Mueller report is this bar letter, which I just don't understand the focus on

00:44:00.400 it.

00:44:00.480 I mean, you know, like we said at the time, I was on the air the day you were, you were

00:44:04.500 sick, Len, the day it was going on.

00:44:05.960 And I remember saying, it's like, look, we all expect bar to put the best face possible

00:44:10.720 on this initial report.

00:44:12.020 That's he, he, look, we can all act as if, uh, he's not going to do that.

00:44:16.360 But if Eric Holder was releasing this report for Barack Obama, you're damn right.

00:44:19.720 It would have been, it would have been favorable to, it would have been the most favorable way

00:44:23.900 he could be accurate.

00:44:24.880 And that's exactly what he did.

00:44:26.040 Um, and so, and we, but then again, even when I came back, I was, I think it was up

00:44:30.080 back the next day.

00:44:30.940 I came back and I said, don't put any stock into this.

00:44:36.100 Let's wait for the full report to wait for the full report.

00:44:40.020 What he said was, was accurate, but not, he did not tell the entire story.

00:44:44.500 That's what a report does.

00:44:45.620 A summary does not tell the whole story.

00:44:48.100 Exactly.

00:44:48.560 And like the idea that this three week period in between when this one letter came out

00:44:53.500 that did not tell the whole story, admittedly, but then the entire, he released the entire

00:44:57.880 report and redacted almost nothing.

00:44:59.740 It's like, like if he wasn't hiding it, if he hadn't released anything else yet, I could

00:45:04.300 understand this controversy.

00:45:05.560 He's released the entire report.

00:45:07.440 Like we've all been able to read it with the exception of very few things that were

00:45:10.600 redacted.

00:45:11.080 And not because it was forced out because, because he said he was going to release it.

00:45:16.420 He just needed to make sure what was redacted, uh, needed to be redacted.

00:45:22.760 And he was going to open it up as much as he could.

00:45:24.920 And he said that in his letter.

00:45:26.920 Yeah.

00:45:27.520 I mean, so it wasn't like he was hiding anything.

00:45:29.820 He knew the report was coming out the way he was going to release it.

00:45:34.340 But this is one of the big things that Mueller was apparently upset about.

00:45:37.080 He wrote a letter to Barr saying basically, Hey, you need to release my summaries or please

00:45:41.080 release my summaries.

00:45:42.080 Barr refused to do that.

00:45:43.120 Then did testify in front of Congress and said, I don't know, they probably wanted to

00:45:48.200 release a little more after he'd released, you know, he'd already received the letter

00:45:51.640 from Mueller saying we want to release more like he knew it.

00:45:54.320 But again, like, I don't, you know, I don't think this is a huge controversy given the

00:45:57.760 fact that we got the entire report like a couple of weeks later.

00:46:01.080 And so my guess would be that Mueller is going to come out and say that he was probably

00:46:06.240 wanted to get the full, you know, the full details out there and would have preferred that

00:46:11.140 to come out and he wanted to get more information out of there.

00:46:14.700 But again, like, you know, we have it all already.

00:46:17.660 So this idea that this three week period, if like, if you can't convince the American people

00:46:21.940 that Donald Trump did something wrong with the full report and your, your fallback option

00:46:27.220 is essentially to say, well, we didn't like the idea that for three weeks, people kind

00:46:31.660 of believed it wasn't as bad as we think it was.

00:46:33.840 I mean, that's just, you're just a failure as a party.

00:46:36.620 You've got, you've got another 18 months to make this case to the American people.

00:46:40.720 And if you can't do it in 18 months, you're not going to win.

00:46:42.940 So what do you think of, I'm going to say two words here that will inflame people or have

00:46:49.400 people celebrate those two words, Justin Amash.

00:46:53.680 I think what Justin was saying, well, I know what he was saying last night at his two hour

00:47:00.220 open forum in his district.

00:47:03.400 I mean, the guy has balls of steel and he, he, he was taking it from all sides and he

00:47:10.680 was taking it and being really cool.

00:47:12.480 Let's be respectful.

00:47:13.620 Let's, let's talk this out.

00:47:15.400 And what he was saying was not that he's for impeachment, but he has not signed on for

00:47:22.120 impeachment.

00:47:22.560 He is not saying, yeah, the Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats, they're going the right way.

00:47:28.400 What he's saying is, is that the president violated trust.

00:47:32.900 And that is true.

00:47:34.360 We all know it.

00:47:35.880 We've just discounted it.

00:47:37.500 We've priced it in already.

00:47:38.380 Right.

00:47:38.680 We, we know what you take from the Donald Trump in the 1980s.

00:47:43.620 I'm, you know, I'm the greatest.

00:47:45.580 This is the most luxurious.

00:47:47.240 We got it.

00:47:48.260 He's a salesman.

00:47:49.820 Okay.

00:47:50.420 We've known since the first time we saw Donald Trump, we're getting a hype story.

00:47:56.200 So it's all been priced in.

00:47:58.100 He's admitted this in several books is, you know, and he says, this is part of how you

00:48:02.400 negotiate.

00:48:03.100 It's a big piece of what he says all the time.

00:48:05.520 Right.

00:48:05.820 This is why you can't get so fired up.

00:48:07.480 Like CNN constantly does or MSNBC constantly does about something he says or tweets or whatever.

00:48:13.000 He's told us a thousand times he's it's between negotiation.

00:48:17.660 It's about, uh, it's about hype.

00:48:19.880 I mean, he believes in those things and has lived his entire life based on those principles.

00:48:23.760 He is PT Barnum and he don't, he, I don't mean that because he wouldn't take that in

00:48:29.320 a bad way.

00:48:29.980 He knows the greatest showman.

00:48:31.720 He's the greatest showman.

00:48:33.260 So all of that has been priced in what, what Justin Amash was saying last night was America

00:48:40.200 has to have the conversation on a president violating the public's trust by being a showman

00:48:49.520 by saying, oh, well, it wasn't come on, Don.

00:48:53.060 And there's nothing in the Mueller report that surprised me.

00:48:57.140 I would have been absolutely heartbroken, maybe not surprised if there was more, you

00:49:06.300 know, action happening with Russia, but I wouldn't have been surprised either with Hillary Clinton

00:49:12.080 doing exactly the same thing.

00:49:13.700 That's the way it works now, unfortunately, well, it wasn't what we thought it was, but

00:49:21.220 it wasn't.

00:49:21.940 It also, I mean, he was doing deals.

00:49:23.920 We all knew he was doing deals with Russia.

00:49:26.260 Of course, he's trying to get Trump tower in Moscow.

00:49:28.620 Of course he told us, no, no business deal.

00:49:33.820 Well, he defines business in a different way.

00:49:36.560 That's all bull crap.

00:49:37.860 And we all know it is.

00:49:39.300 That's just the way he compartmentalizes stuff.

00:49:42.520 What Justin was saying was America needs to decide, is that OK?

00:49:49.140 And impeachment is the only way to decide that.

00:49:53.380 Now, we should have this conversation, but that doesn't mean that we impeach him.

00:49:59.040 It means we have the conversation.

00:50:01.580 I agree with that.

00:50:03.140 I agree with it.

00:50:04.960 We should have that conversation.

00:50:06.860 We should be eyes wide open.

00:50:08.700 Nobody should be so blind to, you know, Donald Trump to or Nancy Pelosi or anything to where

00:50:16.720 you're like, no, I don't even want to talk about it.

00:50:18.840 No, let's talk about it.

00:50:19.920 Yeah.

00:50:20.120 And part of his point is there's a there's a split in what impeachment means.

00:50:24.140 Right.

00:50:24.340 If you go back to the founders, you know, Alexander Hamilton was big on this and that like, you

00:50:27.940 know, it should be something that when there is, you know, a misuse of the public trust,

00:50:32.800 like we should be going for this.

00:50:34.260 And like that kind of concept is basically a lot of people get impeached, right?

00:50:39.040 Like going down that going down that road is we use impeachment more often.

00:50:43.780 The founders looked at it as something that was utilized a little bit more often than

00:50:48.220 we today, because now we look at it as it's like, oh, my gosh, it only happens once every

00:50:52.180 hundred years.

00:50:52.860 It's an interesting split.

00:50:55.540 Like Alan Dershowitz has been on the program before and explain the other side of that,

00:50:58.720 which is the bar should be incredibly high.

00:51:01.200 And only if you have very clear violations, high crimes, really.

00:51:07.380 Yeah.

00:51:07.840 Not not not just lies.

00:51:09.540 Yeah.

00:51:09.760 High crime.

00:51:10.400 Yeah.

00:51:10.660 Not not Clinton.

00:51:12.180 And to be fair, but Dershowitz was consistent on that point when Clinton was Bill Clinton was

00:51:18.260 getting impeached and saying you shouldn't do this.

00:51:20.220 It's not to the level.

00:51:21.460 Right.

00:51:21.560 This, you know, Republicans are, you know, did utilize, I would say, the more the thing

00:51:26.960 that was closer to the founders during the Clinton administration.

00:51:29.360 Many people argued for it during the Obama administration.

00:51:31.580 We don't necessarily have proof of crimes.

00:51:33.140 However, he should be impeached.

00:51:34.520 And that's kind of what, you know, the Democrats are trying to make an argument on.

00:51:38.820 Now, they have no we know they have no credibility on this point.

00:51:41.600 But it is, I think, an important thing for the future of the country to figure out which

00:51:45.480 one of those things we want.

00:51:46.780 Do we want do we want something?

00:51:48.680 And I don't know.

00:51:49.160 I mean, I kind of tend to lean a little bit more towards wanting that bar to be high,

00:51:54.080 especially when we have four year terms.

00:51:57.080 Like, you know, the idea that we're going to go to impeachment now when we're in the

00:52:01.380 middle of a presidential campaign, it makes no sense to me.

00:52:04.000 Just vote the guy out if you think he sucks.

00:52:06.100 Yeah.

00:52:06.500 We're that we're right around the corner.

00:52:08.060 Amash's point on that is, well, we can't just we can't just say because we're close

00:52:12.720 to an election, people can do whatever they want.

00:52:14.700 The same rules apply when at the beginning of the term and then at the end of the term.

00:52:19.820 And of course, he's right on that.

00:52:21.260 I think as a pragmatic sort of functional thing, we've got two nine hundred and forty

00:52:26.420 seven Democrats running for president.

00:52:28.300 If you can't find one of them that you like more than this guy, he probably should be impeached.

00:52:31.780 Right.

00:52:31.880 Like, I mean, it's kind of a baseline, I think, real world view of this.

00:52:36.480 But, you know, Amash is looking at this, I think, correctly, constitutionally.

00:52:40.900 And this is the way the founders looked at it.

00:52:42.820 I mean, they outline this in great detail in the Federalist Papers and saying, like, look,

00:52:47.600 the issue here is when someone breaks the public trust, we have to have a way to hold them

00:52:52.560 accountable.

00:52:52.900 You know, we've been talking for a long time about how the DOJ basically has a rule.

00:52:57.240 This is not a constitutional situation, but has a rule that you can't indict a sitting

00:53:00.520 president.

00:53:01.880 And let's and so we accept that, I think.

00:53:04.660 And an indictment is not a commitment.

00:53:06.900 An indictment is, hey, we think you've done something.

00:53:09.820 Right.

00:53:10.000 We need to have a grand jury and look into criminal proceedings.

00:53:13.880 But you can't even go to that point as of now with a sitting president.

00:53:16.820 And so if you don't take impeachment to the more generalized view and saying, like, well,

00:53:23.380 we can impeach you for, you know, hurting the public trust, you're essentially making

00:53:27.760 the argument that the president is largely above the law.

00:53:31.180 Above the law.

00:53:31.420 Right.

00:53:31.560 Like, he can do things that other citizens can't do.

00:53:34.260 And while we kind of know that in reality, it's not something I want to admit.

00:53:38.500 It's not something I want to codify.

00:53:39.780 I don't want to.

00:53:40.320 Yeah.

00:53:40.400 I don't want to make that the rule.

00:53:41.820 So I think like, you know, I think the concept of having impeachment as a threat to a politician

00:53:48.740 who's entering into the presidency or any other position where if they start violating the

00:53:55.900 public trust constantly, they will be removed from office is something that's really important.

00:54:00.720 If we just say, well, if you murder, someone will remove you from office.

00:54:04.360 Well, that's not a real.

00:54:05.760 It's almost a meaningless standard.

00:54:07.540 Impeachment is not even a thing.

00:54:08.600 Here's the thing.

00:54:09.840 Everything in life has a consequence.

00:54:13.420 What President Trump did was be PT Barnum and skate around the truth and move it around.

00:54:22.020 He didn't do any of the things that everybody said he was doing.

00:54:25.520 OK, he didn't do any of Russia.

00:54:27.400 He did not collude with Russia.

00:54:29.140 He did not take the information from Russia.

00:54:31.860 He just didn't do any of the things that they were going after.

00:54:35.580 He did, however, mislead us on his business dealings.

00:54:39.300 But we knew that that was baked in.

00:54:42.520 If you didn't know that you were an imbecile.

00:54:45.820 OK, so what we're talking about here is a consequence of the president.

00:54:52.840 Betraying the public trust to some degree.

00:54:55.600 Well, you know, is that a bad thing or a good thing or a neutral thing?

00:55:00.000 That's something we should all decide.

00:55:01.820 But the Democrats are going to pay a price as well for their action or inaction.

00:55:07.240 If they don't act, they're going to piss off all of their really far left wing people.

00:55:13.100 So they're going to pay a price for that.

00:55:14.840 If they do and they do impeach, they'll pay a very high price for that as well.

00:55:20.520 With the remaining people who are like, you know what?

00:55:23.200 Can we just stop this nonsense?

00:55:25.780 Let the system work itself out.

00:55:28.240 Let it work itself out.

00:55:31.980 You just be a little quieter, Jason.

00:55:34.080 We're trying to have a conversation here.

00:55:35.660 And sorry about that.

00:55:36.880 We're going to come back with Jason here in a second.

00:55:38.120 Yeah, we've got a lot to talk to you about, Jason.

00:55:40.280 CarShield.

00:55:41.600 CarShield, when your car says check engine, that's not a good thing.

00:55:47.680 I mean, it's just not.

00:55:50.240 I remember, you know, do you see the deal that 25% of Americans are worried about money

00:55:56.420 all the time?

00:55:59.280 Twenty-fourth of our population is worried about money all of the time.

00:56:04.440 If you're not in that situation now, you remember that situation most likely.

00:56:10.180 Uh, and man, when that check engine light goes on, that is a full-fledged panic attack

00:56:16.180 because most people cannot handle a $500 repair.

00:56:19.480 They don't have a $500 bump in the road that they can handle.

00:56:23.660 So what do you do?

00:56:25.180 May I suggest you have, you know, car insurance, you have health insurance.

00:56:29.300 The health of your car is just as costly as the health of your body.

00:56:33.760 Um, and sometimes more expensive car shield.com will help you.

00:56:56.520 Use the promo code back and you're going to save 10%.

00:56:58.880 So do it now car shield.com 10 seconds station ID.

00:57:18.420 I, I will tell you that I don't like, um, we're at the point to where there are no good

00:57:25.160 options, uh, anymore on so many fronts because we have, we let, uh, the horses out of the barn

00:57:33.420 long ago.

00:57:35.260 And so now we're sitting here and we're saying, how do we put Humpty Dumpty back together again?

00:57:43.560 And if we don't start looking at principles, uh, and what's really going on, uh, we're in,

00:57:51.800 we're in deep trouble.

00:57:53.180 Uh, one of the things we have to have an honest conversation about is the China trade war.

00:58:00.160 Um, as I've told you in the past, I don't agree with trade barriers.

00:58:06.460 I don't like it.

00:58:08.000 However, when it comes to China, I think the president is right because of China 2025,

00:58:14.520 2025, which is a goal of China set back in the early two thousands of being the dominant

00:58:22.540 economic power and information power on earth by 2025.

00:58:28.680 This is something that we have not paid attention to at all.

00:58:32.540 And our, our corporations have given them everything because they saw that market and went,

00:58:39.860 Oh, we can make a lot of money.

00:58:41.700 So business here for cheap goods.

00:58:45.380 We all made this deal went over, uh, to China.

00:58:50.720 If Apple wasn't built in China, you would not be able to afford it.

00:58:54.780 An Apple phone would be in the 2000 to $2,500 range.

00:58:59.300 If it was made here in America, at the same time, these companies were so desperate for

00:59:04.360 it.

00:59:04.560 They gave China all of their technology.

00:59:07.780 When you go over and do business, part of the deal is you have to teach us and show us

00:59:12.400 everything, how you make it everything.

00:59:14.760 And so they're just gaining all of this technology for free because we've been so desperate

00:59:20.980 between China 2025 and the, the new silk road and the silk road of information being the

00:59:28.880 5G network, China is, is warring with the West and the free world.

00:59:36.260 They are at economic war with us and we haven't had the balls to say anything.

00:59:42.680 They're sending us poison dog food and bad medicine and opioids.

00:59:49.380 They're doing honestly what the, the opium war was doing, what the English were doing to

00:59:55.240 the Chinese.

00:59:56.040 We'll talk about that, uh, with Jason, our head researcher and what, what that means to

01:00:04.920 us and what's happening over in Europe and what that says for the future, because there's

01:00:11.940 a real change in the air over in Europe.

01:00:15.420 And I, I think it shows that Donald Trump is on the right side of history of at least the,

01:00:23.300 the, the, the short-term history of where things are going.

01:00:26.920 It could be promising for him in 2020 more in a second.

01:00:30.380 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:00:34.180 So, uh, father's day is coming up and what are you going to get your dad?

01:00:51.940 At least for me, I don't need anything.

01:00:56.360 I just want experiences with my kids.

01:00:58.420 That's all I want.

01:00:59.060 I want to go someplace with my kids.

01:01:58.980 Jason, uh, but drill who is, uh, with us now and, uh, our head researcher.

01:02:04.460 I want to talk to you a little bit about Europe and China, but also a little bit about

01:02:08.700 Mueller and what he's going to say here in about 30 minutes on this, uh, report.

01:02:12.620 It seems to me, Jason, that this is nothing but a circus and a sideshow.

01:02:19.980 Uh, nobody's really honestly looking for the truth in anything because the truth is Russia

01:02:27.580 tried to meddle and did meddle with our elections and they'll do it again.

01:02:32.560 And nobody's talking about that.

01:02:34.420 We're just talking about impeachment, which has no chance of going anywhere.

01:02:39.120 It, the house can vote for impeachment.

01:02:41.840 Good for them.

01:02:43.000 Then it goes to the Senate.

01:02:44.500 Do you think they're going to pick it up?

01:02:46.440 No.

01:02:47.180 And who's going to suffer at the, at the, uh, at election time, the Republicans and Donald

01:02:53.160 Trump or the Democrats, the Democrats will pay the price for this.

01:02:58.480 Yeah, that, that, that's from a, from a former member of the intelligence community.

01:03:01.580 That is, that's really the tragedy of this entire thing.

01:03:04.460 Like we know with what Russia did.

01:03:06.620 It's very detailed.

01:03:07.300 The report that they released on how they were, they messed with our election, how they

01:03:11.220 hacked a major, you know, party, uh, organizations, DNC and everything.

01:03:15.680 Can you imagine, you imagine what the, what the NSA and CIA have on this, that we, for the

01:03:22.740 amount of stuff that we know at our level.

01:03:25.580 And we were talking about three, four years ago before any of this was in the public sphere.

01:03:32.420 We found it on YouTube where they're admitting what they were going to do.

01:03:37.980 Imagine what the federal government has and they're not talking about it.

01:03:41.320 Yeah.

01:03:41.520 I mean, we don't know that that's really where the, where the oversight should be right

01:03:44.620 now.

01:03:44.900 It shouldn't be talking about the stupid crap they're talking about now.

01:03:47.440 It should be, wait a minute.

01:03:48.760 Like the house intelligence committee should be like, so are we identifying what went wrong

01:03:52.840 and are, have we hardened ourselves against this in the future?

01:03:55.580 What about all the States?

01:03:56.480 We have an election coming up in a mere matter of months.

01:03:59.660 Why are we not doing something?

01:04:01.840 Are we doing something?

01:04:03.320 What are we doing?

01:04:04.640 When the president said the other day that we had to go to Mars because space was the

01:04:09.420 most important defense thing we could do right now.

01:04:12.040 I disagree.

01:04:13.140 I think the most important thing we can do is harden our intelligence network and our information

01:04:19.500 network and our, our election network.

01:04:23.060 We are, we are prime for hacking.

01:04:26.840 And if we are hacked, we're the worst, we, we end up being in the worst shape because we

01:04:33.660 are the first, first world.

01:04:35.060 When something does work, when we don't have electricity, when we don't have power, when

01:04:39.080 we don't even have air conditioning, we go to hell fast.

01:04:43.520 China doesn't go to hell that fast because their people are already living a lot like

01:04:48.020 the stone age.

01:04:48.900 Yeah.

01:04:49.500 Yeah.

01:04:50.140 We are in a new nuclear, like basically arms race right now.

01:04:54.200 This is the new, like before it was actual nuclear weapons.

01:04:56.420 Right now it's, it's different types of tech.

01:04:59.140 You mentioned China, 5g rollouts.

01:05:02.480 Um, that is crucial right now.

01:05:04.180 And China's destroying us in that AI, uh, right now we should be having, there should

01:05:07.800 be a Manhattan project for artificial intelligence scientists all over the world.

01:05:11.300 I've been saying that for years.

01:05:12.200 That should be the immigration center right now.

01:05:14.580 Last week, last week, um, Samsung released this Mona Lisa project.

01:05:20.560 Did you guys see this?

01:05:21.420 We talked about it last night.

01:05:22.660 Yeah.

01:05:22.840 So making the Mona Lisa move and talk.

01:05:26.400 Okay.

01:05:26.660 It's a painting making it come to life and speak and they can do it with any picture

01:05:33.080 that most people didn't realize that was announced at Samsung AI Moscow.

01:05:41.600 Wow.

01:05:42.520 Okay.

01:05:42.940 That's significant that that is, that's a deep fake territory.

01:05:49.020 That's deep fake central.

01:05:50.960 And we're not talking about it.

01:05:53.720 Yeah.

01:05:54.440 Um, Russia actually has a hacking convention every year where they invite all the best

01:06:00.260 hackers and computer scientists into like one central location.

01:06:03.300 I think it's in St. Petersburg and they give them a task and the tasks are all military.

01:06:07.860 This is frightening.

01:06:08.520 Have you ever heard about this?

01:06:09.980 They give them a task that's specific to attacking another nation state.

01:06:13.120 So there'll be like, there's a power plant.

01:06:15.280 You have 30 minutes to break into it.

01:06:17.880 What do you do?

01:06:18.500 Or you have 30 minutes to crash it and make it explode.

01:06:21.080 What do you do?

01:06:21.780 We're not doing any of that.

01:06:22.720 But I, at least that I know of, I hope we are, but I don't think we're doing any of

01:06:26.980 that.

01:06:27.080 Well, we did find out that the NSA did have this tool that's now kind of biting us because

01:06:31.500 it was leaked, but they had a tool that could break into basically every Microsoft computer

01:06:36.280 for several years and never reported it to Microsoft because they liked using it.

01:06:41.520 Of course.

01:06:41.780 Uh, and once it leaked and now other countries were using it against us, they did go to Microsoft.

01:06:46.600 It's been patched now, but these, these, whatever computer isn't patched can still be hit by

01:06:51.020 it.

01:06:51.240 Point being though, they got a lot of tools.

01:06:52.980 I mean, the NSA has a lot of tools.

01:06:54.460 I know, and I hope we do.

01:06:55.860 I hope we are.

01:06:57.280 I mean, we are in the, we're in the Sputnik time period now for technology and whoever gets

01:07:04.460 to the moon first dominates, dominates.

01:07:07.260 And, uh, and I hope to God that it, it's us.

01:07:11.140 China is not screwing around now.

01:07:13.300 And, and I think Jason, I think we have gotten this China thing right from the beginning.

01:07:20.040 Yep.

01:07:20.680 Uh, we have said it's about 5g.

01:07:24.140 It's about hacking into our, uh, into our businesses and our inventions here.

01:07:31.200 It's about our companies giving away their intellectual property for free to China.

01:07:37.640 Uh, it's about unfair practices, uh, that China is doing and, and China 2025.

01:07:44.280 This is a serious issue.

01:07:46.420 This is a transformative economy that we're about to see.

01:07:49.460 We talk about how there's been going to be massive shifts.

01:07:51.700 They're moving away from, you know, creating small, like a little stupid little products,

01:07:56.060 you know, that they used to sell off to us.

01:07:57.480 And we still buy via Amazon.

01:07:58.720 It takes about two months for him to actually get here to go through customs.

01:08:01.620 Um, but they're moving away from that.

01:08:03.160 But the entire world is really moving away from that.

01:08:04.980 It's going more towards services.

01:08:06.000 Remember like Apple now is like, they're like crud.

01:08:09.060 We're not making as much money on phones anymore.

01:08:11.160 Now they're looking at opening up like, you know, like Apple TV, doing stuff like that.

01:08:15.080 Other services.

01:08:16.000 It's moving in tech services.

01:08:17.840 That's the direction.

01:08:18.840 And China saw this coming from a lot.

01:08:20.560 Why do you think they're, they're trying to expand their 5g network all over the world?

01:08:23.960 Because they want to be the ones dominating that.

01:08:26.060 So do you want the country to dominate the flow of information all over the world?

01:08:30.260 And this is what, this is what this is really about.

01:08:31.980 The flow of information all over the world.

01:08:33.720 This is the same country that is doing a social credit system amongst their citizens.

01:08:39.440 It's, it's the biggest police state in the world right now.

01:08:42.020 It's, it's, it's, it's the biggest slave state in the world right now.

01:08:47.200 Right.

01:08:47.560 It is, it's an abomination.

01:08:49.480 It is, this is the situation that in a hundred years from now, our great grandchildren will

01:08:57.120 all say, you know what?

01:08:58.520 Our great grandfathers and grandmothers, they were just awful people.

01:09:02.820 They didn't care about the slaves in China.

01:09:05.540 They did nothing about it.

01:09:08.160 We're dealing exactly with the same kind of things that our founders were dealing with.

01:09:14.620 And they looked at business and said, well, it'll work itself out.

01:09:19.140 Let's just go to war when we have to, let's do these things that we have to do.

01:09:24.000 And it'll work itself out.

01:09:25.360 It, it will work itself out.

01:09:27.280 And I think with China, it's going to work itself out with, with war.

01:09:31.860 Yeah.

01:09:32.300 You can't look at company.

01:09:33.960 Like I've heard a lot of people say, look, it's, they're just tech companies in China

01:09:36.500 and they're competing.

01:09:37.200 You cannot look at tech companies in China versus the same as like tech companies in the

01:09:41.460 rest of the world, especially not here in the United States.

01:09:43.180 Let's take for instance, Huawei.

01:09:44.500 So Huawei, we did, we delivered a huge blow to Huawei.

01:09:47.540 They're trying, they're leading the push on 5g right now.

01:09:50.480 Um, the Trump administration just, uh, said, look, any U S company cannot do business with

01:09:55.500 Huawei, which is a huge deal for Huawei because their phones, which is probably the number

01:10:00.100 two largest, uh, phone company in the world.

01:10:02.200 Now, um, they all use Google.

01:10:04.280 So now they can't use Google anymore.

01:10:06.000 So they're like, Oh crud, what do we do?

01:10:07.920 They're also making a push to lead in and like laptop and computer production.

01:10:12.160 Now they can't use Microsoft.

01:10:13.880 So now they're kind of screwed.

01:10:15.320 Now the history of Huawei is pretty interesting and see, and this kind of goes into how these

01:10:20.400 Chinese companies operate.

01:10:21.760 The only reason Huawei is a thing right now is because they stole the source code from U S

01:10:26.440 companies that moved into China right after, you know, the, uh, their introduction into

01:10:30.720 the world trade organization, they stole the source code, stole the source code, then copied

01:10:36.420 whatever, all the, all the other technical, you know, all the other, uh, you know, uh,

01:10:40.080 like how to build certain phones and stuff from, from U S companies.

01:10:43.060 Then they created a clone company of U S companies that, that person, their, their CEO was a former

01:10:49.040 intelligence guy in the China, uh, people's Republic of China military.

01:10:52.360 Um, his job was to procure technology.

01:10:55.280 That was his entire job.

01:10:56.740 Then he becomes the CEO.

01:10:58.060 He was also a communist party member.

01:10:59.520 Now this is the guy that stole the source code.

01:11:01.360 Now has the second largest phone company in the world.

01:11:03.120 If you're a flagship company in China, there is a, an official communist party office located

01:11:09.780 right next to the CEO's office.

01:11:11.280 Basically they're co-located with the company.

01:11:14.360 A Huawei is China, Chinese government, the CCP, the China, Chinese Communist Party.

01:11:20.780 That's them.

01:11:21.440 All their flagship companies are the same way.

01:11:23.360 So if you're looking at, well, this is just Huawei trying to like, you know, you know, uh,

01:11:27.160 dominate 5g.

01:11:28.100 No, it's the Chinese Communist Party in China.

01:11:31.380 It's China 2025, which was a communist goal set out in 2006, somewhere in that area of where

01:11:39.920 China would be in at China 2025 in the year 2025.

01:11:45.080 We are going to dominate the world and the world's information.

01:11:50.000 And Donald Trump is putting a stop to it with this trade war.

01:11:54.740 It's the only thing that makes sense because of the moves we're making.

01:11:59.460 It don't, it's the only thing that makes sense because people like Larry Kudlow and, uh, and,

01:12:04.460 um, uh, more, Stephen Moore are for this.

01:12:09.180 And when I've talked to Stephen Moore, he has said China is different and, and he's right.

01:12:14.980 China is different.

01:12:16.280 This is, this is you.

01:12:18.120 I flip flopped, as you know, probably Stu on this multiple times.

01:12:21.240 Cause I just don't know, like I am against tariffs as well.

01:12:24.080 Yeah.

01:12:24.260 But when you think about China, it's a different animal.

01:12:26.060 Like, I don't know how else are you going?

01:12:27.940 What other level are you, lever you have to stop them taking all of our stuff.

01:12:33.160 It's interesting though.

01:12:34.420 Why is the answer to them stealing our technology attacks on us?

01:12:40.200 Why, why do we get, why do we have to pay the penalty for the, for the, the transfer of

01:12:45.120 technology to them?

01:12:46.320 Because that seems like something they're doing wrong.

01:12:47.860 It's not something like something that I'm doing wrong yet.

01:12:49.920 I'm the one.

01:12:50.240 Cause I don't think you can, right.

01:12:51.920 But I don't think you can stop this with the American corporations because they want

01:12:59.020 that they'll sell their country out.

01:13:01.520 We, we know that Facebook, Google, they'll sell us out in a heartbeat.

01:13:05.300 They just, they don't care.

01:13:07.060 And they're already working with China on really bad things.

01:13:10.940 So for the country to say, we have a trade war and Oh, by the way, you cannot do business

01:13:16.220 with this company, this company, this company, that's the next level.

01:13:20.900 This level is, Oh, Apple, you want to do that?

01:13:23.720 Okay, go ahead.

01:13:24.460 It's going to cost you 25% more.

01:13:26.740 And so they do pass it on to us.

01:13:28.820 But I think hitting these corporations where they live on the bottom line is the only

01:13:34.940 way you're going to get them to untangle from China.

01:13:37.360 The Huawei situation seems to be a more, a more direct way of addressing this though.

01:13:42.600 Right.

01:13:42.820 I mean, like you're, they're going after them because they've done, they've committed what

01:13:47.080 we view as, you know, international crimes, basically.

01:13:50.220 In some cases, almost acts of war.

01:13:53.060 Like, I mean, it's really serious, but like to add, because of, of those types of things

01:13:59.120 to add a 20, 25% tax that I have to pay on goods from many times companies completely

01:14:06.440 unrelated to them is a, is a, is a, it's a, it's a very indirect, broad sort of like blunt

01:14:12.700 force thing that punishes American citizens for crimes that China commits.

01:14:17.420 So here's what I think actually happened.

01:14:20.040 Larry Kudlow, Stephen Moore, uh, and, uh, John Bolton.

01:14:25.020 They all know, they all know what China really is.

01:14:27.840 Does Donald Trump know what China really is?

01:14:29.900 I don't know.

01:14:30.820 I don't know.

01:14:31.240 I think, I mean, I think he, he takes them.

01:14:33.700 He knows they're a serious threat.

01:14:34.940 He knows they're a serious threat.

01:14:36.960 Is he the architect of this?

01:14:38.920 No, I think what he's the architect of is a trade war.

01:14:42.640 He loves tariffs.

01:14:44.080 And so the people in the administration that he surrounded himself with said, okay, you

01:14:48.720 know what?

01:14:49.100 There's some good that we can make happen out of these tariffs because nobody's been willing

01:14:53.800 to take them on.

01:14:55.060 He'll take them on under the guise of tariffs.

01:14:57.440 So let's solve the Huawei stuff.

01:15:00.760 Let's solve some of these things by using tariffs.

01:15:03.640 I think it was their way in using something that Donald Trump understands how to use and

01:15:09.980 really loves.

01:15:11.020 Yeah, I think that's, I mean, I think that's, I think they're making the best of a situation.

01:15:14.280 I think so too.

01:15:14.820 They don't prefer.

01:15:15.920 Right.

01:15:16.120 But it's not just, it's, you know, Larry Kudlow is very friendly to free trade economics.

01:15:20.980 Correct.

01:15:21.180 It's been that way for a long time.

01:15:22.440 But the people he has like Wilbur Ross and, and Lighthizer and, I mean, these people are

01:15:27.360 not, they're, they're the exact opposite.

01:15:29.580 I mean, they want to do this whether China is good or bad, which is why you saw, you know,

01:15:34.860 tons of our, our allies getting hit with these big tariffs as well.

01:15:38.260 This is not just a China situation.

01:15:40.820 It's a, it's a broad strategy by the president, but which by the way, he ran on.

01:15:44.380 I mean, it was, it was a big, you know, big priority.

01:15:46.780 What were some of the things that we were told off air by people who were very pro-Trump

01:15:51.780 during the election?

01:15:53.840 I'm glad I want you to know.

01:15:54.920 I got several calls like this from people.

01:15:57.960 I am not for Trump.

01:15:59.380 I just want you to know I am with you 100% away, but I am not going down the road.

01:16:03.180 You're going down because somebody has to be in his inner circle because we have to be

01:16:09.680 able to use the things that he believes in and his bully pulpit and move us in the right

01:16:16.060 direction.

01:16:16.740 And with, with that, not, not in a usurping sort of way, exactly what Larry Kudlow said.

01:16:23.100 He talked to the president and was like, no, I'm not, I wouldn't join you because you're

01:16:26.280 for trade, trade war.

01:16:28.160 Then he said something to him for 20 minutes and Larry was like, I'm in.

01:16:32.800 What could that have been?

01:16:34.600 Larry, this is what I want.

01:16:36.600 What do you want?

01:16:37.700 Well, I think China is a danger.

01:16:39.120 Good.

01:16:39.640 Do those things.

01:16:41.200 I want this done.

01:16:42.640 I want a better deal with China.

01:16:44.740 You want to hurt China in this way and get that done.

01:16:47.660 I think we can do both.

01:16:49.220 To me, that's what would make somebody like Larry Kudlow go.

01:16:52.420 I'm on board with your trade war.

01:16:59.040 Sponsor of this half hour is LifeLock.

01:18:06.780 We are against economic sanctions.

01:18:10.040 We're just when it comes to trade, free trade is the answer.

01:18:14.240 This is just getting ugly and we have to pray that the president and those around him are

01:18:23.260 looking at the effects of these trade wars and looking at the the election that is coming.

01:18:30.940 Do nothing.

01:18:31.600 Do no harm to the economy if you want to win 2020.

01:18:35.920 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:18:39.840 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:18:41.960 Bob Mueller is speaking for the first time publicly since the release of the Russia report.

01:18:47.500 He's expected to announce that he is going back to private life.

01:18:51.280 But is he going to say anything else about what people are saying about the report and

01:18:59.020 Attorney General Barr?

01:19:01.840 It's something that has been called by the Justice Department.

01:19:05.400 So this he's at the Justice Department making this statement.

01:19:08.940 There will be no questions that he'll be fielding afterwards, but we'll hear his speech in one

01:19:15.760 minute.

01:19:16.320 Stand by.

01:19:19.140 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:19:42.160 In many cases, you will pay less for your home than you do for a rental.

01:20:17.080 NMLS 1-8233-4 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

01:20:22.360 All right, let's go right to Robert Mueller, who is talking about good morning, everyone.

01:20:30.400 And who knows you for being here two years ago.

01:20:35.500 The acting attorney general asked me to serve as special counsel and he created the special counsel's office.

01:20:43.960 The appointment order directed the office to investigate Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

01:20:52.360 This included investigating any links or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the Trump campaign.

01:21:02.640 Now, I have not spoken publicly during our investigation.

01:21:06.760 I'm speaking out today because our investigation is complete.

01:21:11.540 The attorney general has made the report on our investigation largely public.

01:21:15.940 We are formally closing the special counsel's office.

01:21:20.960 And as well, I'm resigning from the Department of Justice to return to private life.

01:21:27.360 It's not a surprise, by the way.

01:21:28.940 I'll make a few remarks about the results of our work.

01:21:33.000 But beyond these few remarks, it is important that the office's written work speak for itself.

01:21:38.740 Let me begin where the appointment order begins, and that is interference in the 2016 presidential election.

01:21:49.560 As alleged by the grand jury in an indictment, Russian intelligence officers, who were part of the Russian military, launched a concerted attack on our political system.

01:22:00.020 The indictment alleges that they used sophisticated cyber techniques to hack into computers and networks used by the Clinton campaign.

01:22:10.340 They stole private information and then released that information through fake online identities and through the organization WikiLeaks.

01:22:19.840 The releases were designed and timed to interfere with our election and to damage a presidential candidate.

01:22:27.480 And at the same time as the grand jury alleged in a separate indictment, a private Russian entity engaged in a social media operation where Russian citizens posed as Americans in order to influence an election.

01:22:45.160 These indictments contain allegations, and we are not commenting on the guilt or the innocence of any specific defendant.

01:22:55.840 Every defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

01:23:00.920 The indictments allege and the other activities in our report describe efforts to interfere in our political system.

01:23:08.460 They needed to be investigated and understood, and that is among the reasons why the Department of Justice established our office.

01:23:18.060 That is also a reason we investigated efforts to obstruct the investigation.

01:23:24.020 The matters we investigated were of paramount importance.

01:23:28.300 It was critical for us to obtain full and accurate information from every person we questioned.

01:23:33.680 When a subject of an investigation obstructs that investigation or lies to investigators,

01:23:40.940 it strikes at the core of their government's effort to find the truth and hold wrongdoers accountable.

01:23:49.220 Let me say a word about the report.

01:23:52.540 The report has two parts addressing the two main issues we were asked to investigate.

01:23:58.360 The first volume of the report details numerous efforts emanating from Russia to influence the election.

01:24:06.900 This volume includes a discussion of the Trump campaign's response to this activity,

01:24:11.620 as well as our conclusion that there was insufficient evidence to charge a broader conspiracy.

01:24:17.800 And in the second volume, the report describes the results and analysis of our obstruction of justice investigation involving the president.

01:24:30.020 The order appointing me special counsel authorized us to investigate actions that could obstruct the investigation.

01:24:39.000 We conducted that investigation, and we kept the office of the acting attorney general

01:24:43.500 apprised of the progress of our work.

01:24:47.660 And as set forth in the report after that investigation,

01:24:51.740 if we had had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so.

01:24:58.400 We did not, however, make a determination as to whether the president did commit a crime.

01:25:03.500 The introduction to the volume two of our report explains that decision.

01:25:09.300 It explains that under long-standing department policy,

01:25:14.960 a president cannot be charged with a federal crime while he is in office.

01:25:20.120 That is unconstitutional.

01:25:22.380 Even if the charge is kept under seal and hidden from public view, that, too, is prohibited.

01:25:29.860 The special counsel's office is part of the Department of Justice,

01:25:33.140 and by regulation, it was bound by that department policy.

01:25:37.540 Charging the president with a crime was, therefore, not an option we could consider.

01:25:45.200 The department's written opinion explaining the policy makes several important points

01:25:50.680 that further informed our handling of the obstruction investigation.

01:25:56.120 Those points are summarized in our report, and I will describe two of them for you.

01:26:00.660 First, the opinion explicitly permits the investigation of a sitting president

01:26:07.860 because it is important to preserve evidence while memories are fresh and documents available.

01:26:15.120 Among other things, that evidence could be used if there were co-conspirators who could be charged now.

01:26:21.100 And second, the opinion says that the Constitution requires a process other than the criminal justice system

01:26:29.040 to formally accuse a sitting president of wrongdoing.

01:26:33.720 And beyond department policy, we were guided by principles of fairness.

01:26:40.700 It would be unfair to potentially...

01:26:42.720 It would be unfair to potentially accuse somebody of a crime

01:26:47.780 when there can be no court resolution of the actual charge.

01:26:52.040 So that was Justice Department policy.

01:26:56.360 Those were the principles under which we operated.

01:26:59.440 And from them, we concluded that we would, would not reach a determination,

01:27:04.360 one way or the other, about whether the president committed a crime.

01:27:08.820 That is the office's, that is the office's final position.

01:27:13.220 And we will not comment on any other conclusions or hypotheticals about the president.

01:27:17.900 We conducted an independent criminal investigation

01:27:22.040 and reported the results to the attorney general, as required by department regulations.

01:27:29.180 The attorney general then concluded that it was appropriate to provide our report

01:27:33.440 to Congress and to the American people.

01:27:37.200 At one point in time, I requested that certain portions of the report be released.

01:27:41.360 The attorney general preferred to make that, preferred to make the entire report public all at once.

01:27:49.140 And we appreciate that the attorney general made the report largely public.

01:27:53.800 And I certainly do not question the attorney general's good faith in that decision.

01:27:59.840 Now, I hope and expect this to be the only time that I will speak to you in this manner.

01:28:05.620 I am making that decision myself.

01:28:07.640 No one has told me whether I can or should testify or speak further about this matter.

01:28:15.040 There has been discussion about an appearance before Congress.

01:28:18.820 Any testimony from this office would not go beyond our report.

01:28:23.880 It contains our findings and analysis and the reasons for the decisions we made.

01:28:30.180 We chose those words carefully, and the work speaks for itself.

01:28:33.780 And the report is my testimony.

01:28:38.020 I would not provide information beyond that which is already public in any appearance before Congress.

01:28:44.980 In addition, access to our underlying work product is being decided in a process that does not involve our office.

01:28:53.580 So, beyond what I have said here today, and what is contained in our written work,

01:29:00.640 I do not believe it is appropriate for me to speak further about the investigation or to comment on the actions of the Justice Department or Congress.

01:29:09.400 And it is for that reason I will not be taking questions today as well.

01:29:12.480 Now, before I step away, I want to thank the attorneys, the FBI agents, the analysts, the professional staff who helped us conduct this investigation in a fair and independent manner.

01:29:28.500 These individuals, who spent nearly two years with the special counsel's office, were of the highest integrity.

01:29:37.400 And I will close by reiterating the central allegation of our indictments, that there were multiple, systematic efforts to interfere in our election.

01:29:47.820 And that allegation deserves the attention of every American.

01:29:53.680 Thank you. Thank you for being here today.

01:29:55.340 All right. He said a lot there.

01:29:56.760 We're going to give you the analysis in one minute.

01:29:59.180 Stand by.

01:30:00.200 First, let me tell you about relief factor.

01:30:02.360 If you're in constant pain, you are not alone.

01:30:05.040 I have been in pain for a long time.

01:30:07.160 And you get to a point where you're just like, I can't take it anymore.

01:30:10.960 When you get to that edge, you're willing to try anything.

01:30:14.180 And I honestly did not think relief factor would work.

01:30:17.320 And it's it's a bias of mine that it's 100 percent natural.

01:30:21.680 Please. It's oh, yeah.

01:30:23.160 Let me eat a plant.

01:30:25.040 And so I just didn't think it would work.

01:30:26.740 I take it three times a day and it is really worked miracles for me.

01:30:30.120 Get your life back.

01:30:31.220 Get out of pain.

01:30:32.600 Try it for three weeks.

01:30:33.860 Their quick start cost you 20 bucks.

01:30:35.780 If it doesn't work in three months or in three weeks, it's not going to work for you.

01:30:39.960 So try it.

01:30:41.060 70 percent of the people who try it go on to order month after month like I do, because it does work.

01:30:47.560 That's relieffactor dot com.

01:30:51.920 800-500-8384.

01:30:54.440 Relieffactor dot com.

01:30:56.440 10 seconds.

01:30:56.940 Station ID.

01:30:57.380 Thank you.

01:30:57.560 Thank you.

01:31:11.060 So I think that he said some really interesting things.

01:31:15.740 Let me just recap here quickly.

01:31:18.820 WikiLeaks tried to influence Russia, tried to influence.

01:31:22.140 They timed the releases and hacked into things and released it to influence our election.

01:31:28.800 Private businesses in Russia also tried to influence.

01:31:32.840 They did interfere.

01:31:33.920 However, we also looked into obstruction because anybody who was trying to obstruct us looking into where our elections free and fair, we needed to look into.

01:31:47.720 So if there was an accusation, we looked into it.

01:31:50.900 He says part one of his report was about the numerous attempts that did happen by Russia, but there was insufficient evidence to prove a crime when it came to the president or anyone around the president.

01:32:05.900 He said, if we would have if we would have known for sure that the president did not commit a crime, we would have said so.

01:32:14.020 Now, he didn't say if he did commit a crime, we would have said so, because what followed, I thought, was really interesting.

01:32:22.800 He said it would be it would be inappropriate and it would be a process beyond justice if we accused and no court could try.

01:32:38.400 So he said it would be wrong and unjust if we made an accusation that, yeah, we think this guy committed a crime, but no court could try it because he's the president of the United States and it's unconstitutional.

01:32:52.840 He said to charge a president with a crime, a sitting president.

01:32:58.560 So he said we couldn't charge him with a crime if we found a crime.

01:33:03.720 Now, he didn't say they found a crime, but he also said that they didn't find him innocent of any crime.

01:33:13.640 So you're kind of left in this middle ground.

01:33:17.300 And what he is saying here is there's another judge and jury and that judge and jury is the American people through the impeachment process, because we can't go through the Justice Department.

01:33:30.860 We did what we were supposed to do.

01:33:33.100 And I have nothing further to say on this.

01:33:36.400 There's nothing that we're hiding.

01:33:38.380 There's nothing that the AG has held back.

01:33:40.900 He endorsed Bob Barr, saying he thought he was fair.

01:33:46.960 I do not question Bob Barr.

01:33:50.480 And he said my testimony, any testimony from anybody on my team, including me, will not go further than the report that is already public.

01:34:00.160 So you're kind of left with, well, wait, you didn't find anything.

01:34:08.160 Um, but you're, you're kind of saying that if there was something we wouldn't have, we wouldn't have said we should, it's a crime because it's unjust to accuse him of a crime.

01:34:23.680 So was there a crime?

01:34:26.440 Yeah.

01:34:26.800 Because I think what the media is going to take out of that section, which I think was one of the most important sections is him saying, look, we were prevented from charging him.

01:34:35.080 However, you do have a way to follow up on this.

01:34:37.180 Yes.

01:34:37.340 And in the media is going to translate that as him basically giving a roadmap to what Congress should do next, which is impeachment.

01:34:45.240 That is what I think people are going to take that in the media and on the left.

01:34:48.940 But my question is, you impeach him.

01:34:51.320 You just had a grand jury.

01:34:52.820 And so, you know, when a grand jury does an investigation, they do all of this.

01:34:56.620 You issue an indictment.

01:34:58.000 This person committed a crime because of these things.

01:35:01.160 Well, he's just said there's no other information for us to give.

01:35:06.520 We've given you all information.

01:35:09.080 Well, we've all read that information with an exception of just a few tidbits that don't seem like they're bombshells.

01:35:15.920 OK, hidden behind those black bars.

01:35:18.640 They're just names to a lot of Roger Stone stuff, basically.

01:35:22.960 OK, so he's he's sending two signals.

01:35:27.580 One, there is a way if you think the president committed a crime, you have to do it through impeachment.

01:35:34.460 But two, if you're going to interview any of us on the team, we're all going to say the same thing.

01:35:42.340 Everything we have is in that report.

01:35:44.620 Well, there there is this weird line in there of if we if he had committed a crime, we couldn't have said anything.

01:35:54.740 And if we knew he didn't commit a crime, was it what did he say in the report?

01:36:01.300 If if he if he if we if he was innocent, we would have said so.

01:36:04.660 We would have said so.

01:36:05.380 Basically, if we could have proved his innocence, we would have said so.

01:36:07.560 But like you said, on the other hand, if he would have been guilty, we wouldn't have said so.

01:36:11.940 Right.

01:36:12.200 So it kind of helps nobody.

01:36:14.180 It helps nobody because it doesn't help Trump.

01:36:16.620 Because if we have all of the information, well, then where is the crime?

01:36:22.840 What is the crime?

01:36:24.040 Right.

01:36:24.600 What they're saying is the he there's a way to take this.

01:36:28.720 Right.

01:36:28.880 And I think the left will take it this way.

01:36:30.360 Certainly the Ocasio-Cortez's of the world will take it this way, which is saying he can't say that there's a crime that has been committed.

01:36:37.460 However, he believes there is a crime that has been committed and you should go and impeach him for it because that's the only way he can be punished for that crime.

01:36:44.440 But what is the crime?

01:36:45.560 Well, he's it's all he's saying it's all there.

01:36:48.080 This is a crime where you see it.

01:36:50.180 You read the report.

01:36:51.000 And to be clear, I don't I'm not saying this, but I'm saying the left will will be making this argument, which is there are a lot of examples of things that we could say were obstruction of justice.

01:37:01.000 You know, the the, you know, mislead, you know, him asking for Mueller to be fired and and and I mean, I know, I know.

01:37:09.720 I know you can look at it that way.

01:37:11.280 But I mean, I think it's no smoking gun.

01:37:14.200 This is this is something that if, you know, I read it, if this is all the information, which he just said, we have no other information.

01:37:24.680 It's all out there.

01:37:25.760 It's all out there.

01:37:26.720 OK, well, it's all out there.

01:37:28.600 Well, I don't see anything that is a smoking gun.

01:37:32.640 You could look at certain things and go, yeah, that was not good.

01:37:36.140 And that probably was maybe that skirt.

01:37:39.520 But there's no smoking gun on anything.

01:37:41.840 And so what you're doing now is saying we couldn't prosecute and bring to a court of law.

01:37:47.780 But I honestly don't see even if you could.

01:37:52.240 We've all now seen all of the information.

01:37:54.980 Right.

01:37:55.400 And I don't I wouldn't if I'm a attorney general, I'm not bringing that to a courtroom.

01:38:03.820 No, even if a constitutionally I could.

01:38:05.940 I don't think you have a strong enough case, you know, beyond a reasonable doubt.

01:38:10.160 No way.

01:38:10.720 Democrats won't mind that, though.

01:38:12.020 No, I'll do it anyway.

01:38:12.760 No, I know because of their sheer hatred for him.

01:38:15.020 But I think they will pay a heavier price for it.

01:38:17.700 It's possible.

01:38:18.280 I mean, I think there's a good argument to be made, though, on the other side is what Mueller is basically saying with his press conferences.

01:38:23.700 Look, I did my job.

01:38:25.400 I got nothing else for you.

01:38:26.940 Leave me alone.

01:38:28.060 Yeah, you see what you see what's sitting there.

01:38:30.200 If you think it's enough, go for impeachment.

01:38:31.520 But stop bugging me.

01:38:32.900 Yeah, I think that's exactly a fair reading of where he is.

01:38:35.860 And that's probably why he he did this press conference.

01:38:38.160 Yeah, right.

01:38:38.700 I will say the bar thing was that maybe the biggest moment in there, because Mueller saying that he he believes Barr was acting in good faith with what he did with the letter is a huge part of the story, because the main point of evidence that the Democrats had against against against

01:38:55.380 Barr was to say that Mueller wrote this letter was to say that Mueller wrote this letter and he said, I want you to release more and you're not doing this.

01:39:01.100 And they tried to make it out like Mueller was really pissed off.

01:39:03.500 As you see in that press conference, Mueller is telling you he's not pissed off about it.

01:39:08.040 Quote, I do not question Bob Barr.

01:39:10.420 That's big.

01:39:11.180 That's huge.

01:39:11.960 Huge.

01:39:12.280 Huge.

01:39:12.580 The problem is, after two years, we want something definitive.

01:39:16.220 Yeah.

01:39:16.560 Give us definitive.

01:39:18.640 And we just don't have it.

01:39:20.080 And we have definitive on the collusion on collusion.

01:39:24.660 Yes.

01:39:24.880 And we have that would have been the crime.

01:39:27.040 Right.

01:39:27.340 And we have definitive on Russia and WikiLeaks.

01:39:31.000 We have all this evidence.

01:39:33.100 There's no evidence.

01:39:34.540 There's just this like, well, maybe I don't know.

01:39:37.960 I guess you could read it that way.

01:39:40.080 You don't put people in jail for that.

01:39:42.340 And you don't take away the presidency for that.

01:39:45.080 There's no smoking gun.

01:39:46.880 As he said, everything that we had to say and we found is out.

01:39:53.620 You know it all.

01:39:55.720 You're listening to Glenn.

01:39:57.520 No, that's not the way.

01:39:59.340 Yeah, that's not the way the press is going to treat it.

01:40:01.660 They're going to go the opposite way.

01:40:03.720 All right.

01:40:05.020 Let me tell you a little bit about selling your home.

01:40:08.680 If you're looking to buy or sell a home, moving into an area that you don't know.

01:40:15.660 It's awful.

01:40:17.040 It's awful.

01:40:17.820 You don't you have no idea.

01:40:20.300 You need somebody that you can trust that understands you, has your sensibilities.

01:40:26.640 The real estate agents that we have in realestateagentsitrust.com are all people who we have hand vetted.

01:40:34.060 We know them personally.

01:40:36.100 They listen to the show.

01:40:37.560 They have your same sensibilities.

01:40:39.180 They look for honest deals.

01:40:41.080 They're kind of handshake kind of people.

01:40:42.680 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.

01:40:45.800 When you're in the car and you're saying, look, you know what I'm worried about with schools.

01:40:49.520 They do know what you're worried about with schools and they will help you find the right place.

01:40:54.620 If you're looking to sell your house, they know your area and know how to find the right customer for your home and price it right and get it off the market.

01:41:04.640 It's realestateagentsitrust.com, a free service from Mercury Real Estate.

01:41:09.440 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.

01:41:12.040 It's really interesting to sit here and have multiple screens to be able to watch all of the news channels and how everybody's reporting on this.

01:41:21.620 Fox News has rotated through several different banners.

01:41:28.440 One they generally are on is there was insufficient evidence to charge broader conspiracy, but they have gone through several different things that Mueller said, not having the sound up on either of them because we're in the studio.

01:41:44.980 You kind of just have to get the gist from what, you know, each is saying by what they're putting up on the screen.

01:41:52.860 Fox News seems to be reporting a more positive, but a more thorough look at what Mueller said.

01:42:03.120 The only the only banner that I have seen on CNN is this Mueller quote.

01:42:09.920 If we had confidence, the president, the president clearly did not commit a crime.

01:42:15.580 We would have said so, end quote.

01:42:17.640 So that's what the media is going to hang their hat on.

01:42:20.660 And that was in the Mueller report.

01:42:23.580 It's the quote from the Mueller report, which is the same quote that they used constantly right after it came out.

01:42:28.180 Right.

01:42:28.880 So the the conversation is not going to change, but it should.

01:42:33.320 And here's what it should change to.

01:42:35.480 And I want to have an adult, nonpartisan, constitutional conversation.

01:42:43.460 And that is, here's if we looked at this as history and we said, all right, you've read the Mueller report on Harry Truman.

01:42:53.480 And we take Trump and Obama and everybody else out of it.

01:42:57.020 And we're talking about Harry Truman.

01:42:58.420 This is what the report said.

01:43:01.960 And this is what the opposition and the supporters were saying.

01:43:06.420 Dismiss opposition and dismiss supporters right now is just noise.

01:43:10.380 Look just at the report and what he just said.

01:43:15.880 Well, what he just said was there's nothing hinky going on in the Justice Department.

01:43:20.660 There's no cover up and nobody's telling me or anybody else what to say.

01:43:26.020 The attorney general is on the up and up.

01:43:28.760 He's a good man.

01:43:29.780 I trust him.

01:43:31.420 I want to get this exactly right.

01:43:34.440 I do not question Bob Barr.

01:43:37.420 That's huge.

01:43:39.360 It's huge that he said everything that was supposed to be released has been released.

01:43:45.500 You have all of the information.

01:43:48.300 Nobody's telling me to say these things.

01:43:50.440 Nobody's telling me what not to say.

01:43:52.960 I'm telling you now you can you can have us testify, but there's nothing else I'm going to say.

01:44:01.600 My testimony is that report.

01:44:04.260 I have nothing else.

01:44:05.880 Everything I wanted to say is in it.

01:44:08.580 Now, that's the good news.

01:44:10.980 The bad news is, again, if we were just talking about Harry Truman, what this report does is it does say that one line.

01:44:19.280 If we had confidence the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so.

01:44:24.740 But he also came out and he said if we would have charged him with a crime, it would have been unjust because we can't charge a sitting president with a crime.

01:44:38.020 There are other ways to deal with that because he's the president, but the court of law and charging someone with a crime that they can never go to court and clear their name of, meaning there's a chance he's innocent.

01:44:53.460 Right.

01:44:54.020 And he deserves his day in court.

01:44:57.580 So we can't say that he committed a crime because he cannot have a day in court.

01:45:03.360 So that leads you to understand that there is something in the report and all of it is out so we can have an adult conversation.

01:45:13.960 That won't happen on TV, but we can have an adult conversation.

01:45:18.720 Wait a minute.

01:45:18.920 Let's go back and look at that report, because if memory serves me correctly, there are a couple of places where they said we investigated this and there was no crime.

01:45:29.080 We investigated this and there was no crime.

01:45:31.420 We investigated this and we also investigated this and then we investigated this and there was no crime.

01:45:38.940 Wait a minute.

01:45:39.360 What were those last two?

01:45:40.720 Yeah.

01:45:40.980 OK, but there is no smoking gun or the media would have been all over it already.

01:45:47.900 There is no more information than what is in this report.

01:45:52.900 So we already know we have to go back and look at it.

01:45:56.800 Now, those smoking guns is the media will say, well, we got something.

01:46:02.400 The Democrats are going to say, well, he was saying we should impeach.

01:46:05.680 No, he's saying if you find that there is enough to charge him with a high crime or misdemeanor, all of the evidence, there is nothing else.

01:46:15.160 All of it is in that report.

01:46:17.480 So you're not going to find anything else.

01:46:20.360 If you find a smoking gun, well, then you should impeach.

01:46:23.980 Well, if there was a smoking gun in that report, wouldn't we have already been talking about it?

01:46:31.140 What they've been talking about lately is something that he is denying that Bob Barr is shutting down this investigation, that he was in a way obstructing justice, that he was lying about what Mueller was saying.

01:46:45.620 Well, Mueller is saying no.

01:46:47.720 So they've played their strongest card from the Mueller report, and that was there's more to it.

01:46:55.280 Well, Mueller has just come out and said, I want you to know no one's telling me anything.

01:46:59.900 In fact, I trust the attorney general, and I think he's acted honorably.

01:47:04.780 There is nothing else.

01:47:06.560 There is nothing else.

01:47:07.640 So what we have to do as adults is go back and look back at the Mueller report, and what were those couple, two or three places where they didn't say there was not a crime there?

01:47:21.220 Probably the biggest one is the attempt by the president to try to get Don McGahn, the attorney, to deny that the president had ordered him to have Mueller fired.

01:47:39.580 So Trump calls McGahn and says, fire Bob Mueller.

01:47:45.100 And McGahn says, no, then the story leaks that that's happening.

01:47:49.560 And Trump goes back to McGahn and says, release a statement saying that I didn't tell you to fire him.

01:47:54.280 OK, and that is essentially the accusation to prevent further scrutiny.

01:47:58.880 He wanted McGahn to lie to the press about this.

01:48:05.120 So the president came out when he fired Mueller or when he fired.

01:48:09.940 Well, what's his name?

01:48:12.660 Comey.

01:48:13.180 Yeah, call me.

01:48:14.340 That was the first time.

01:48:16.220 And he he came out and said, yeah, I fired him because of this.

01:48:20.000 When he's doing this with Mueller and trying to fire Mueller, he clearly can.

01:48:25.800 Yep.

01:48:26.240 He just like Comey.

01:48:27.480 He's the president.

01:48:28.800 He can.

01:48:29.220 Guy works for the president.

01:48:31.020 It looks bad, but he can.

01:48:33.080 There is part of this that is you can't always fire people to protect yourself.

01:48:37.900 I mean, there is precedent for that.

01:48:39.860 But if you if you look at this, the way that Mueller report is broken down, if you haven't

01:48:43.600 read it, and I hope you have enough of a life to not have read it.

01:48:48.000 You let us do that.

01:48:48.860 Yeah.

01:48:49.380 They have basically 10 things in there that they think could have been obstruction of

01:48:52.500 justice.

01:48:52.800 And each one has to hit.

01:48:54.420 It has to clear all three hurdles.

01:48:57.320 Right.

01:48:57.700 Here are the hurdles.

01:48:58.340 It has to be an obstructive act.

01:49:00.420 OK, they have to do something, obviously.

01:49:02.720 Number two, it can't just be an obstructive act.

01:49:04.800 Number two, it also has to have a nexus to an official proceeding.

01:49:07.700 So basically, it has to do with an it can't just be like a, you know, something with the

01:49:12.700 press.

01:49:13.040 It has to have something to do with an official court proceeding.

01:49:15.820 You're trying to get in the way of the investigation in some way.

01:49:18.900 And then third is intent.

01:49:21.060 Your intent has to be to hide, to to actually obstruct.

01:49:25.760 It can't just be something that wound up obstructing, but you didn't mean it to.

01:49:28.820 So in this particular case, it's very easy to see Donald Trump as a guy.

01:49:35.000 And we all know this.

01:49:36.100 If you are against Donald Trump, he hates your guts and he wants you dead.

01:49:40.080 OK, whether he did something or not, whether it's justified or not, he doesn't want you

01:49:46.680 around.

01:49:47.500 OK, and so you can easily see him saying, I am so sick of this Mueller stuff.

01:49:52.740 Just fire the guy.

01:49:53.980 I want you to fire him.

01:49:56.320 His intent may not have been to obstruct justice.

01:49:59.980 Right.

01:50:00.160 It was, I'm sick of this guy.

01:50:02.540 And that's what's interesting about this particular incidence, because they have throughout this,

01:50:07.100 they go through all 10 and they apply those three standards to each one of the accusations

01:50:10.640 in almost all of them.

01:50:13.460 One of the hurdles they basically tell you is not cleared, like he didn't have the intent

01:50:18.420 or he didn't have a nexus to an official court proceeding.

01:50:21.200 Right.

01:50:21.960 There's always one of them, at least.

01:50:24.680 Usually on all of these, they found something on one of the three standards, but they couldn't

01:50:29.300 get all three.

01:50:30.080 And to make it official, to make it a real charge, they need to get all three of those

01:50:33.320 things.

01:50:33.980 This McGahn one, they basically tell you they have all three.

01:50:37.780 They basically go through this and say, yes, we do think there was an obstructive act.

01:50:42.520 Yes, there was a tie to an official court proceeding.

01:50:45.660 Yes, he had the intent to try to hide it.

01:50:48.200 Like, and they, and you know, it's a little bit more nuanced than this.

01:50:51.040 They present some evidence on his behalf as well.

01:50:53.680 Like, for example, one, and again, this, if you remember the, uh, the definition of is

01:50:58.760 right.

01:51:00.100 Trump's case is not that he said he was going to fire him.

01:51:04.880 He said he wanted to get, to get rid of him.

01:51:08.560 Now, those are two different, I mean, they seem to say like the same type of thing, but

01:51:13.420 there's a little more wiggle room in the get rid of him.

01:51:15.900 What does that mean exactly?

01:51:17.240 How does that work?

01:51:18.380 Is there a conditional part to that?

01:51:20.680 But I mean, that's one of his defenses here is basically, I never said the word fire.

01:51:24.480 I never said the word fire.

01:51:25.420 That's why it was an obstruction to get McGahn to, to, to come out and say, I didn't say

01:51:29.540 it because I said, get rid of it.

01:51:31.380 So I'm not trying to, I'm not trying to mislead people by saying I never called McGahn.

01:51:36.620 I'm just, I tried to call McGahn to say, come out with a statement that said, I never said

01:51:40.980 fire because I didn't say fire.

01:51:42.540 I said, get rid of him.

01:51:44.140 And so like, that's the type of line.

01:51:46.020 And they present that as a case, as a part of the argument in his positive.

01:51:49.980 However, they also give evidence on the other side of that as well.

01:51:53.500 It's a definition of is.

01:51:55.920 It's a little bit of a wording game, but they, but they are saying that, okay, well, here's

01:52:00.780 what he says.

01:52:01.400 And maybe you believe that here's why we don't necessarily believe it.

01:52:04.960 Right.

01:52:05.320 But this is something that is in, in my opinion, is in the gray area of definition of is.

01:52:12.740 Okay.

01:52:14.020 But that's not something that conservatives have typically wanted.

01:52:18.000 I'm not saying.

01:52:18.560 No, no, wait, wait.

01:52:19.060 I'm not.

01:52:19.900 I'm not taking a side on either side.

01:52:21.680 I'm just saying, if you're going to impeach somebody, you want clear cut.

01:52:28.640 You want clear cut.

01:52:30.020 That's a standard I think is appropriate.

01:52:31.500 Correct.

01:52:32.060 And it could be a smallish crime, but you want it clear cut.

01:52:37.280 He did this because of this.

01:52:39.580 The problem with this is, is they looked at all of these places where he could have obstructed

01:52:45.400 and he didn't in a lot of them.

01:52:48.100 Right.

01:52:48.300 So there's no real pattern of obstruction.

01:52:51.300 There is just his solar flare of, I want this guy out of here.

01:52:55.860 It seems to be there was moments of anger, sometimes connected to an official act, which

01:53:04.440 doesn't excuse you for what you do in that situation.

01:53:06.900 I think it's a good argument for Trump as a person, because when he has, and he has these

01:53:11.100 moments of anger, sometimes he flies off the handle.

01:53:13.160 But generally speaking in here, you see a lot of opportunities for him to do more where

01:53:18.060 he stops it.

01:53:18.620 I mean, I've made this example before with Jared Kushner.

01:53:21.120 They, they, they would not give the press a thing on, on, on the documents that they

01:53:25.160 wanted about this.

01:53:26.020 But behind the scenes, he was telling Kushner, whatever they want, just give it to him.

01:53:29.540 Like, I mean, so he gives this front to the, to the papers and to the press of, I'm not

01:53:34.080 going to give you anything.

01:53:34.760 He's fighting with them.

01:53:35.760 But in the background, behind the scenes, he's telling Jared Kushner, give investigators

01:53:39.440 whatever they want.

01:53:40.620 Like, that's not a sign of someone who's constantly trying to instruct justice.

01:53:43.940 And he may have had moments where he flew off the handle and that's what they're going

01:53:47.880 after.

01:53:48.220 The biggest point in this favor, in my opinion, is there's no underlying crime.

01:53:57.180 Okay.

01:53:57.800 Like there, there was no obstruction or there was no collusion with Russia.

01:54:02.020 There wasn't, he wasn't doing what we, we hoped that he wasn't doing, at least if you're

01:54:09.640 a, an American, uh, and you put America first, you hope the president wasn't colluding to

01:54:16.120 disrupt our elections.

01:54:17.860 That would be bad.

01:54:18.600 Okay.

01:54:18.700 That would be bad.

01:54:19.640 If any of that would have come through, I would not be on the presidential bandwagon.

01:54:24.740 You were colluding with a foreign entity, an enemy of ours to destroy our elections.

01:54:32.180 You're done.

01:54:33.180 I don't care who you are.

01:54:34.240 You're done.

01:54:34.700 There was none of that, none of that.

01:54:38.780 So he's obstructing justice for what reason?

01:54:43.220 So they don't get down to, there is no evidence of things.

01:54:46.600 I think a lot of times it's just him fighting with the press.

01:54:48.580 Yeah, exactly right.

01:54:50.100 He thinks that this, and he has good reason to, that this is a setup that the press is

01:54:56.160 just coming after him.

01:54:57.380 I think if you look at this as Harry Truman, I think that's where history would have ended

01:55:03.840 up if this would have happened to Harry Truman.

01:55:06.400 No, he was, there, there wasn't an original crime.

01:55:10.820 And so, yeah, they say that it's not the crime.

01:55:13.360 It's the coverup.

01:55:14.060 No, not really.

01:55:15.260 Not with him because he wasn't covering things up.

01:55:17.560 He was giving information to the investigators, give them, Jared, give them whatever they want.

01:55:23.400 So he was saying, we're not doing anything, but he had these moments where he's like, this

01:55:28.880 is ridiculous.

01:55:30.360 That's a fair reading of it.

01:55:31.800 I think that's a totally fair reading of it.

01:55:34.180 And the American people are fair.

01:55:36.240 The press isn't.

01:55:37.600 The Democrats will not be.

01:55:39.100 And let's be honest, if this were Barack Obama, our side probably wouldn't be honest

01:55:44.820 either and give him the benefit of the doubt.

01:55:48.400 They're going to do what he has to do.

01:55:50.540 Just keep doing what you're supposed to do.

01:55:55.360 And the one thing the president needs to do is pay attention to the economy.

01:55:59.880 Make sure this economy does not stumble or fall because that will decide the election.

01:56:07.480 Our sponsor is is comesailaway.com.

01:56:12.220 Comesailaway.com.

01:56:13.520 This is going to be so fun.

01:56:15.260 This is happening next spring.

01:56:17.300 And they've been asking me to do this forever.

01:56:22.000 And I've not wanted to to do it because I just I'm a I'm not a cruise guy.

01:56:28.460 And they said, OK, well, what would you want to do a cruise?

01:56:31.320 So I want to go to Europe.

01:56:34.180 I want to see Athens.

01:56:35.700 I want to take my daughter to Athens.

01:56:37.120 I want to I want to go to Venice.

01:56:39.560 I also want to go back to the Holy Land.

01:56:42.860 I want to be able to teach my kids the history of the Enlightenment.

01:56:48.940 That's really is that's Venice.

01:56:51.060 The history of the Enlightenment and how these really strong people funded the Enlightenment.

01:56:58.460 what a democracy is, why we're not a democracy, why we're a republic in in Athens.

01:57:05.600 And what is the foundation of our religion, of our belief of freedom?

01:57:09.620 That comes from the Holy Land.

01:57:11.920 So I've heard David Barton, Bill O'Reilly.

01:57:15.240 We're all going on his cruise.

01:57:17.360 I want you to check it out.

01:57:18.560 Please come with us next spring.

01:57:20.460 All inclusive.

01:57:21.460 Come sail away dot com.

01:57:25.900 Oh, Lord, forgive us and heal our land and heal our people, please, because you're the only ones going to save us.

01:57:33.860 Because every decision we face, every option that is out there is just not easy or good.

01:57:40.880 Protect us, Lord.

01:57:42.520 Protect us.
