00:01:50.300 What?
00:01:51.580 What?
00:01:52.920 I thought that's, I thought Lincoln had that one covered with, you know, being shot at the theater.
00:01:58.640 But, no, now Trump has to be removed for the original sin of slavery.
00:02:07.400 We have the inspector general's report today on the FBI's handling of the Russia probe.

00:04:40.340 Soros-funded industry.
00:04:43.200 What a surprise.
00:04:45.360 You know, it's kind of nice being the number one enemy of George Soros.
00:04:50.820 Is it now?
00:04:51.620 Yeah, I like that.
00:04:52.340 I do.
00:04:52.840 I kind of like that.
00:04:53.660 Why is that?
00:04:54.440 Because he's evil.
00:04:57.320 Oh, I thought you were saying that because he's Jewish.
00:04:59.180 I see what you're saying.
00:05:00.220 No, because he's evil.
00:05:02.360 Wait, but what does that have to do with you being an anti-Semite?
00:05:04.920 Because I don't want to hear any news about George Soros unless it points to you being an anti-Semite.
00:05:08.240 Right, I know, I know, I know.
00:05:09.960 So anyway, spooky dude.
00:05:12.660 Now, in the end, do you understand?
00:05:16.440 Anyway, that guy.
00:05:18.380 He's back in this new movie, too, isn't he?
00:05:20.400 Yeah, I think he is.
00:05:21.960 Oh, your friends.
00:05:23.480 You think your friends are going to save you?
00:05:26.900 Reach for it.
00:05:28.200 Slay me down.
00:05:30.300 Feel the hatred.
00:05:31.620 Anyway, so George Soros and his minions at Media Matters decided to smear Nikki Haley in an interview that I did with her.
00:05:43.380 And honestly, I've been working all weekend.
00:05:46.800 I was working on a stage show, so I didn't even get a chance to respond or even check on it.
00:05:53.760 I get up all day Saturday.
00:05:55.580 I'm hearing this and I'm like, oh, geez, Nikki, this is so horrible.
00:05:59.580 I'm sorry I didn't even have a chance to write to her, say I'm sorry that this happened because of the podcast we did.
00:06:06.640 And I'm kicking myself.
00:06:08.720 How did I not hear this as an interviewer?
00:06:12.840 I should have heard this and said, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:06:16.320 Oh, my gosh.
00:06:19.920 And that stuff happens.
00:06:20.900 Sometimes you're not listening.
00:06:22.560 You're thinking of your next question for a second.
00:06:24.360 You're organizing your thoughts.
00:06:25.820 In my case, it happens.
00:06:27.140 In my case, I just thought to myself, I missed it because I must have known what she meant.
00:06:36.420 And so I didn't take it that way.
00:06:38.220 And I wasn't thinking, oh, somebody's going to take it this way.
00:06:41.880 And that's, I guess, maybe what happened, maybe.
00:06:47.360 But that's really even saying that she said anything that should have been taken any differently.
00:06:53.140 I want you to, first, here's what Media Matters said.
00:06:57.580 And millions of hits on a short version, okay, millions of stories that went out and have been passed by everybody on the left.
00:07:08.960 That Nikki Haley said that she saw the Confederate flag as a flag of service, a flag of heritage, until, what was his name?
00:07:23.880 Dylan Roof.
00:07:24.940 Dylan Roof goes into the church and shoots everybody, and then she sees it differently.
00:07:32.940 Well, that's not what she said.
00:07:34.940 And here is the actual audio from the podcast.
00:07:40.420 If anybody wants to actually listen to it, a few outlets have retracted the story and corrected it.
00:07:48.120 But here it is.
00:07:49.840 South Carolina fell to her knees when this happened.
00:07:52.040 This is one of the oldest African-American churches.
00:07:55.860 These 12 people were amazing people.
00:07:58.760 They loved their church.
00:07:59.860 They loved their family.
00:08:00.900 They loved their community.
00:08:01.920 And here is this guy that comes out with his manifesto holding the Confederate flag and had just hijacked everything that people thought of.
00:08:14.520 We don't have hateful people in South Carolina.
00:08:17.020 There's always the small minority that's always going to be there.
00:08:19.600 But, you know, people saw it as service and sacrifice and heritage.
00:08:23.960 But once he did that, there was no way to overcome it.
00:08:30.040 And the national media came in in droves.
00:08:33.020 They wanted to define what happened.
00:08:34.780 They wanted to make this about racism.
00:08:36.440 They wanted to make it about gun control.
00:08:37.880 They wanted to make it about death penalty.
00:08:39.920 And I really pushed off the national media and said there will be a time and place where we talk about this, but it is not now.
00:08:46.960 We're going to get through the funerals.
00:08:48.580 We're going to respect them.
00:08:51.100 And then we will have that conversation.
00:08:53.060 And we had a really tough few weeks of debate, but we didn't have riots.
00:08:58.140 We had vigils.
00:08:59.220 We didn't have protests.
00:09:00.380 We had hugs.
00:09:01.120 And the people of South Carolina stepped up and showed the world what it looks like to show grace and strength in the eyes of tragedy.
00:09:11.040 Okay.
00:09:11.500 So here's how this is spun.
00:09:14.440 Now listen to this.
00:09:15.280 What she said was, look, South Carolina fell to its knees when that shooting happened.
00:09:24.200 So she's first saying the people of South Carolina were humbled, were so struck by what happened, they were humbled by it.
00:09:35.800 And she said some people, by saying people, she doesn't mean all, people saw that flag as service and sacrifice and heritage.
00:09:51.380 Now she said we don't have hateful people.
00:09:53.640 Yes, we do, of course, have.
00:09:55.700 There's always a small number, a small minority of hateful people, but people saw that as sacrifice and heritage.
00:10:04.020 Now let me be really clear for all you imbeciles, not regular members, just the people who are being paid by George Soros at Media Matters to smear me and everybody else.
00:10:17.560 The South was not about state rights.
00:10:22.400 It was not about that.
00:10:24.360 You can claim it all you want, but that's not what it was about, period.
00:10:31.540 It was about the expansion of slavery.
00:10:35.380 Not even just the holding on to slavery, but the expansion of slavery.
00:10:40.820 Remember, we had the Missouri Compromise.
00:10:44.420 We had the expansion of slavery out West was being told, no, you can't expand it out West.
00:10:50.280 The South, the Southern states wanted this all the way down into Mexico.
00:10:54.720 They wanted it out West and they wanted it down to Mexico.
00:10:57.880 Let's be clear here.
00:10:58.680 The reason why you know that is because you've seen in person the Confederate Constitution.
00:11:05.060 Yeah.
00:11:05.360 Which does, if it was about states' rights, would probably have given new states an out to not have slavery.
00:11:11.780 Yeah.
00:11:11.980 You could join if you don't.
00:11:13.340 You have the option.
00:11:14.180 Right.
00:11:14.380 That's not what the Confederate Constitution did.
00:11:16.360 Instead, it required everyone who joined the Confederacy to automatically have it, have slavery, and it was required.
00:11:22.800 And before the expansion of slavery.
00:11:26.560 So it wasn't enough that you were a slave-owning state.
00:11:29.880 You had to agree with that.
00:11:31.920 You had to be a slave-owning state.
00:11:33.720 And you had to agree with the expansion of slavery.
00:11:38.360 So it was not about heritage.
00:11:40.880 And it was not about state rights.
00:11:42.980 It wasn't about any of that.
00:11:44.800 However, Stu, tell me what it turned into in the 1970s and 80s.
00:11:51.800 The Confederate flag.
00:11:53.620 We all know this started as something.
00:11:55.720 I mean, we fought a war over what it started as.
00:11:57.960 Yes.
00:11:58.000 However, these things, of course, do develop and change meanings over time.
00:12:02.280 I mean, we can all acknowledge that we all watched on television a show with a Confederate flag on the side of an orange car jumping over things all the time.
00:12:11.660 It was not seen as, wow, these guys are super mega extra racist.
00:12:15.660 Wow, these guys are for slavery.
00:12:17.680 These guys want to expand slavery all over the world.
00:12:21.160 It was the South.
00:12:21.860 It was the South.
00:12:22.700 It became a symbol of just Southern pride.
00:12:25.560 Right or wrong.
00:12:26.700 And obviously, we know Nikki Haley's position on whether it was right or wrong.
00:12:29.820 She removed it from the statehouse.
00:12:31.780 She also is an Indian American.
00:12:35.340 Yeah.
00:12:36.120 Okay.
00:12:36.820 First generation American.
00:12:38.580 She's an Indian who, in the interview, talked about the racism that she felt as a child.
00:12:45.460 She was different.
00:12:46.740 She was neither black nor white.
00:12:48.580 She was another.
00:12:49.540 She was in a beauty pageant as a kid.
00:12:52.180 She wanted to join.
00:12:53.400 They didn't have a category for her, so she was told to beat it, kid.
00:12:56.880 I mean, here's a woman who, in the South, in South Carolina growing up, experienced racism.
00:13:07.300 And then she says, look, that's not what it turned into.
00:13:11.220 This flag was about heritage.
00:13:13.740 But once, once, Dylann Roof hijacked that and made sure everybody knew that was about racism, South Carolinians got rid of it.
00:13:26.080 And she led the way.
00:13:27.840 Yeah.
00:13:28.080 I mean, think about just the, what kind of garbage organization gets to work every day and says, you know what?
00:13:35.060 Let's take the Indian American governor of a southern state who is literally responsible for removing the Confederate flag.
00:13:43.640 And let's say, it seems like she might have some white supremacist leanings.
00:13:47.300 Let's just, let's just insinuate that and see what happens.
00:13:49.460 And they imagine the country and the media that allows that to work, albeit for a short time.
00:13:55.920 I mean, eventually they correct the stories later on, but still.
00:13:58.440 Nobody sees the corrections.
00:13:59.520 Nobody sees the corrections.
00:14:00.280 It's embarrassing.
00:14:01.680 This is a pathetic tactic.
00:14:03.220 Like, how could anyone think this was going to work?
00:14:05.640 And then it shows, too.
00:14:07.040 And I will say, like, in Media Matters' very light defense here, they actually do include the part where she says she's not giving her own opinion.
00:14:16.340 Now, they mislabel the tweets.
00:14:18.660 They lie on the headlines.
00:14:21.040 But the media is so pathetic, they don't even listen to the clip they pulled from your interview, let alone go back to the interview.
00:14:27.600 Let alone go back and hear the actual context.
00:14:29.340 They listen only to Media Matters' clip, and they don't even listen to the whole thing.
00:14:32.780 They write on their headline.
00:14:34.800 That is how pathetic your media is today.
00:14:37.200 They didn't even bother to listen to the minute 20 clip that Media Matters pulled.
00:14:42.380 They didn't even listen to it for themselves.
00:14:45.700 That is an incredibly low bar to clear.
00:14:49.520 And that is where the entire media seems to be living right now.
00:14:53.720 And then they have to embarrassingly delete tweets and correct stories.
00:14:57.920 How about spend 80 seconds listening to the damn clip before you write the story?
00:15:06.940 How about going back, and I know this one's crazy, going back and listen to five minutes before this moment on the podcast and five minutes after?
00:15:15.100 Is that a possibility?
00:15:16.600 Something like that?
00:15:17.380 Where you'd actually at least get the very basic context of what was going on?
00:15:20.120 They don't have time to do that.
00:15:21.180 I know.
00:15:21.600 They don't have time to do that.
00:15:23.000 And besides, it's behind a paywall.
00:15:25.300 Oh, no.
00:15:26.020 Oh, no.
00:15:26.880 On Saturday, it's open for everybody on YouTube.
00:15:31.140 Is it a legitimate request?
00:15:32.880 Is it a legitimate excuse?
00:15:34.280 Let me give you this.
00:15:34.920 Is it a legitimate excuse for a media organization to say they can't subscribe to a website for $9, whatever we're charging?
00:15:42.440 By the way, one week free, I believe.
00:15:44.700 Yes.
00:15:45.000 You can't do that before you write a news story?
00:15:48.700 About the ambassador to the United Nations.
00:15:52.120 And the leader, probably, for the Republican nomination in 2024, as we stand right now.
00:15:56.800 Yeah, it's not worth $9 to you.
00:15:58.160 No.
00:15:58.560 I mean, you can get it for free.
00:16:00.060 You just have to sign up.
00:16:00.760 For free.
00:16:02.100 I mean, that's crazy.
00:16:03.920 At least Media Matter subscribes.
00:16:05.560 Yeah.
00:16:06.380 Yeah, they do.
00:16:06.960 I think they do.
00:16:07.620 I'm sure they must.
00:16:08.640 Yeah.
00:16:08.920 So here's the thing.
00:16:09.680 You can get it at blazetv.com slash Glenn.
00:16:12.940 Again, your support is more than welcome.
00:16:18.160 It is really, really appreciated and needed.
00:16:21.440 But if you want to watch it for free, you can watch it for free.
00:16:25.360 It's out now on YouTube.
00:16:27.480 Just go to the Glenn Beck or Blaze.
00:16:31.660 Oh, it's right here.

00:16:36.760 And listen to it.
00:16:37.740 She's amazing.
00:16:39.120 She's amazing.
00:16:39.760 And I'm sorry, Nikki, that it was this show that caused you any kind of consternation over this weekend.
00:16:47.480 But we did our job.
00:16:49.840 You did your job.
00:16:51.420 The media, as always, fails to do theirs.
00:16:58.500 Okay, I'm going to tell you about this Rectech Grill.
00:17:00.800 We're so thrilled to have them on as sponsors.
00:17:03.260 A friend of mine suggested, he's got a 15-year-old son.
00:17:08.000 I have a 15-year-old son.
00:17:09.080 And he said, you know, we get together, Glenn.
00:17:12.860 He said, we go shop for the Sunday meal.
00:17:15.840 And we get it all prepared and get everything ready.
00:17:18.660 And then he said, we grill it.
00:17:21.160 So it's fish or meat or whatever.
00:17:23.240 He said, we grill it every Sunday.
00:17:25.740 And he said, it has really helped my son and I get closer together.
00:17:31.160 And, you know, I don't really know how to grill.
00:17:34.260 I'm not good at, you know, I know exactly how long it takes.
00:17:37.380 I'm just not good at that.
00:17:39.120 And I want to be.
00:17:40.860 And I want my son to be.
00:17:42.240 But he's only going to learn it if he's doing it with his dad.
00:17:45.020 So we got a Rectech Grill.
00:17:47.380 Now, Rectech Grills, this is a different thing entirely.
00:17:50.240 I mean, they've got millions of followers on their Facebook and social media posts because people, it's a lifestyle.
00:17:57.220 It's really, it's very, very different.
00:17:59.440 They share recipes.
00:18:00.840 Everybody who buys one of these, you actually get, and I'm not kidding you, you actually get the founder, the guy who runs the company, you get his personal cell phone number.
00:18:12.380 And I said, how's that working out for you?
00:18:13.800 And he said, you know, Christmas, it's not really, my wife doesn't like it.
00:18:18.500 But, hey, I'm there.
00:18:21.580 They have people that you can call for help on recipes and everything else.
00:18:26.380 It's really a lifestyle.
00:18:27.980 But this is a grill built by grillers for grillers.
00:18:32.200 The nearest competitor, same price competitor, it's 80 pounds heavier.
00:18:38.480 The Rectech Grill is 80 pounds heavier.
00:18:41.340 Why do I point that out?
00:18:42.880 Because it shows you the kind of quality and the kind of steel this thing is made from.
00:18:47.640 This is the best.
00:18:50.720 Rectechgrills.com.
00:18:52.320 It's R-E-C-T-E-C, grills, with an S, dot com.
00:18:57.800 Rectechgrills.com.
00:18:59.040 We break for 10 seconds, Station I.D.
00:19:00.400 So, Chuck Todd.
00:19:14.460 I talked to Chuck Todd right after the election.
00:19:18.280 And I said to Chuck, Chuck, baby.
00:19:21.560 You know, I know I've taken a lot of heat, and I've taken my share of the blame.
00:19:30.560 In fact, I've taken more than my share of the blame.
00:19:34.180 But trust me, you guys are going to find yourself doing exactly the same thing if you don't learn the lesson.
00:19:44.400 Oh, Glenn, how could have Donald Trump won?
00:19:49.420 I mean, what does that say?
00:19:51.660 You really have to kind of figure that out, Chuck.
00:19:54.460 You need to listen to the American people.
00:19:59.420 So, did Chuck want to listen?
00:20:01.320 No.
00:20:02.620 I've called him several times.
00:20:04.100 I've written to him several times.
00:20:05.360 And not just Chuck.
00:20:06.480 But he's the example today because of what happened over the weekend on his very, very fair Meet the Press.
00:20:15.020 And I said to not only him, but to others, I get it.
00:20:20.860 I know how the American people are looking at Donald Trump.
00:20:25.160 And you guys are missing the boat.
00:20:26.900 And you're only making things worse.
00:20:30.660 Now, this was, I don't know, a year and a half ago I was doing that.
00:20:34.240 Now they're just absolutely unhinged, loony bin kind of thinking.
00:20:40.940 They won't even allow people to speak, to present to the other side.
00:20:48.200 They are so convinced that they know all of the answers.
00:20:52.780 And they know how you're thinking, how I'm thinking.
00:20:55.580 In this case, how Ted Cruz was thinking.
00:20:57.740 You know, you ask, why isn't Congress doing anything?
00:21:04.260 Why isn't the GOP standing up?
00:21:06.080 Well, here's a good reason.
00:21:08.020 I can guarantee you that Ted Cruz, when he couldn't break through to the corrupt media on Meet the Press,
00:21:19.280 when he couldn't break that logjam with them, the others look at him and say,
00:21:26.040 well, he's outspoken.
00:21:27.940 He's really, really good in debates and everything else.
00:21:31.340 If he's going to be made to look like a clown, I can't do it.
00:21:36.400 I mean, they already did it last weekend.
00:21:37.980 They did it to Senator Kennedy.
00:21:39.400 And you're like, okay, well, is Senator Kennedy, is he the guy to really present it?
00:21:45.560 Get Ted Cruz, because he's a pit bull.
00:21:48.440 Do you think anybody else wants to talk about it?
00:21:51.000 Anybody else want to defend that the Democrats messed with our election?
00:21:56.960 Who else wants to go up and put your head in the guillotine?
00:22:00.080 That's what was happening with Meet the Press.
00:22:03.600 Go ahead.
00:22:04.600 Anybody next, we'll chop your head off, too.
00:22:09.400 We all have to line up and say, yeah, okay, I'll do it.
00:22:14.280 I'll do it.
00:22:15.800 Chuck, invite me on Meet the Press.
00:22:19.320 You go ahead.
00:22:20.620 Ask me if I believe that they were conspiring.
00:22:26.300 Damn right I do, and I'll come with the evidence.
00:22:30.580 But let's see if you let me speak.
00:22:33.500 You didn't let Ted speak.
00:22:36.040 Oh, yes, I did.
00:22:37.360 Yes, I did.
00:22:38.540 Really?
00:22:39.400 We'll let the American people decide as we play back that audio.
00:22:44.700 Next.
00:22:54.660 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

00:24:43.500 So very glad you're here.
00:24:46.140 Chuck Todd, I'm available next Sunday if you'd like to see the evidence and you wish to have someone actually present it without constantly being interrupted by you.
00:24:59.480 Here is Ted Cruz yesterday, and I want to play the whole clip where they just mock Ted Cruz and then really don't let him present any evidence.
00:25:10.940 Here it is.
00:25:11.640 Do you believe Ukraine meddled in the American election in 2016?
00:25:15.540 I do, and I think there's considerable evidence.
00:25:17.880 You do?
00:25:19.820 You do?
00:25:20.600 Stop.
00:25:21.140 Let me say.
00:25:21.960 Stop.
00:25:22.420 Play that again.
00:25:23.200 Turn it up in your car if you're in your car.
00:25:25.520 Turn it up.
00:25:26.660 Listen to the background.
00:25:27.460 Listen to the staffers.
00:25:29.480 Go ahead.
00:25:29.840 Do you believe Ukraine meddled in the American election in 2016?
00:25:33.720 I do, and I think there's considerable evidence.
00:25:36.020 You do?
00:25:38.000 You do?
00:25:38.840 And Chuck, let me say.
00:25:40.220 Senator, this sort of strikes me as odd, because you went through a primary campaign with this president.
00:25:47.440 He launched a birtherism campaign against you.
00:25:49.780 He went after your faith.
00:25:51.300 He threatened to, quote, spill the beans about your wife about something.
00:25:54.320 He pushed a National Enquirer story, which we now know he had a real relationship with the editors of the National Enquirer.
00:26:00.440 And Chuck, I appreciate your dragging up all that garbage.
00:26:02.740 That's very kind of you.
00:26:03.420 Go ahead.
00:26:03.880 Let me ask you this.
00:26:05.400 Is it not possible that this president is capable of creating a false narrative about somebody in order to help him politically?
00:26:13.360 Can we stop for a second?
00:26:14.240 Stop, stop, stop.
00:26:14.440 This is a great thing where it's like, hey, did Ukraine get in the middle of our elections?
00:26:19.440 Yes.
00:26:19.840 So you don't think it's possible Donald Trump could lie?
00:26:23.380 Well, first of all, like, forget the facts about Ukraine for a second.
00:26:28.260 That is not the fact that Donald Trump can did occasionally believe in conspiracy theories in the past has nothing to do with whether there's evidence on the books that we could show you and have shown you about whether Ukraine was involved in our elections.
00:26:42.620 That's not only that.
00:26:43.820 Listen to what he's saying is he's bringing up all this personal stuff.
00:26:47.340 Yeah.
00:26:47.780 To try to get him like, yeah.
00:26:48.700 To try to get him like, he's gone after you and said horrible things.
00:26:52.540 How could you possibly believe him?
00:26:55.800 Well, doesn't his credibility, doesn't Ted Cruz's credibility actually go up on this issue?
00:27:02.740 Right.
00:27:02.780 It should.
00:27:04.500 I've been personally attacked and destroyed by Donald Trump.
00:27:09.720 He could have said, I could say, Donald Trump said a lot of things about me.
00:27:16.420 Do you want me to bring up the list again?
00:27:17.080 No, I do not want that list back on.
00:27:19.120 But he said a lot of things.
00:27:20.600 So shouldn't my credibility go up?
00:27:24.140 I was willing to say, these are lies.
00:27:27.600 These are lies.
00:27:29.540 I'm now willing to say, the guy I've said was a liar, these aren't lies.
00:27:35.740 This is true.
00:27:36.840 And this has nothing to do with Donald Trump.
00:27:41.100 This has everything to do.
00:27:42.580 They convicted two people.
00:27:45.980 Convicted them for meddling in the U.S. election in Ukraine.
00:27:51.960 They are on tape confessing it.
00:27:54.900 Really?
00:27:55.240 Because if you continue with this interview clip, Chuck Todd points out the things that
00:28:01.020 were a problem from Ukraine, and he doesn't mention either of those things, which is,
00:28:06.580 I thought, I thought to be very strange.
00:28:08.760 All right, go ahead.
00:28:10.240 Except that's not what happened.
00:28:11.720 The president released the transcript of the phone call.
00:28:14.520 You can read what was said on the phone call.
00:28:16.280 And let me point out a game.
00:28:17.760 And you weren't, you, you yourself thought the Biden part was troubling.
00:28:21.980 Chuck, let me point out a game that the media is playing.
00:28:24.980 You know, a question that you've asked a number of people is you've said to senators sort of
00:28:30.040 aghast, do you believe that Ukraine and not Russia interfered in the election?
00:28:35.360 Now, that in a court of law would be struck as a misleading question.
00:28:40.080 Of course Russia interfered in our election.
00:28:42.440 Nobody looking at the evidence disputes that.
00:28:44.380 But what the media is pretending is, look, on the evidence Russia clearly interfered in
00:28:51.340 our election, but here's the game the media is playing.
00:28:54.720 Because Russia interfered, the media pretends nobody else did.
00:28:58.700 Ukraine blatantly interfered in our election.
00:29:01.240 The sitting ambassador from Ukraine wrote an op-ed blasting Donald Trump during the election
00:29:06.260 season.
00:29:06.620 Do you know why he did that?
00:29:07.200 That is unusual.
00:29:08.160 What did Donald Trump, what did Donald Trump as a candidate say about Ukraine and Crimea
00:29:13.680 during the election that might have inspired the ambassador?
00:29:15.960 So you're saying they had disagreements with Donald Trump and they wanted Hillary Clinton
00:29:19.000 to get elected.
00:29:19.780 Okay, so they wrote an op-ed.
00:29:21.280 I'll tell you, a Ukrainian parliamentarian.
00:29:23.160 That is the difference.
00:29:24.000 What you're saying is you're saying a pickpocket, which essentially is a hill op-ed, compared to
00:29:30.440 Bernie Madoff and Vladimir Putin.
00:29:32.700 You're trying to make them both seem equal.
00:29:39.540 I don't understand that.
00:29:41.020 Chuck, Chuck, I understand that you want to dismiss Ukrainian interference because A, they
00:29:45.680 were trying to get Hillary Clinton elected, which is what the vast majority of the media
00:29:48.860 wanted anyway, and B, it's inconvenient for the narrative.
00:29:52.960 You know, it's hysterical.
00:29:54.400 Two years ago, there was article after article after article in the mainstream media about
00:29:58.260 Ukrainian interference in the elections, but now the Democrats have no evidence of a crime,
00:30:03.660 no evidence of violating the law, and so suddenly, Ukrainian interference is treated as the media
00:30:09.560 clutches their pearls.
00:30:10.880 Oh my goodness, you can't say that.
00:30:13.080 Last week, Chuck, you called Senator John Kennedy basically a stooge for Putin.
00:30:17.860 I did not.
00:30:18.580 But don't basically.
00:30:19.320 Press needs to stop being ridiculous and acting like they work for Adam Schiff.
00:30:24.600 Okay.
00:30:25.660 It's unbelievable.
00:30:26.720 So it's an op-ed.
00:30:27.360 That was their evidence that they discussed.
00:30:29.660 This guy is trying to, you remember, oh, he was the guy who did Meet the Press years
00:30:36.160 ago.
00:30:36.600 He was so great.
00:30:39.000 Meet the Press.
00:30:40.080 He died early.
00:30:41.920 You're talking about Tim Russert.
00:30:43.580 Tim Russert.
00:30:45.320 This is absolutely a one-sided game with Chuck Todd and Meet the Press.
00:30:52.040 Just one-sided.
00:30:53.000 He's so emotionally attached to this story that he's defending it out of emotion.
00:31:00.260 You can hear it in his, you do?
00:31:04.220 Yeah.
00:31:04.440 He does it in the way of like, you said my kid was ugly?
00:31:07.820 Well, let me tell you why they're not ugly.
00:31:09.380 Right.
00:31:09.560 Well, that's not, it's not supposed to treat your, it's not, it's not your child.
00:31:13.300 Defending this storyline should not be a family issue to you.

00:31:32.880 Hi, Pat.
00:31:33.780 Hi, Glenn.
00:31:35.700 I'm totally convinced that Ukraine didn't meddle.
00:31:39.060 It was only, it was only Russia.
00:31:40.800 It was, it was just Russia.
00:31:43.000 And it wasn't Russia on anything else other than working and colluding with Donald Trump
00:31:48.960 and his campaign, right?
00:31:50.620 So it wasn't, it wasn't anything that Trump was not related to.
00:31:55.520 Exactly.
00:31:56.220 Right.
00:31:56.540 Okay.
00:31:56.740 Yes.
00:31:57.120 All right.
00:31:57.600 Yes.
00:31:57.920 Would you, would you go as far as saying that Trump was the architect?
00:32:01.420 Yes.
00:32:01.800 Yes, yes, I would.
00:32:02.980 I mean, of not only this.
00:32:04.060 And I'd go as far as to say he's a Russian asset.
00:32:06.580 Okay.
00:32:07.280 And he was, was he a Russian asset during slavery as well?
00:32:11.940 Yes.
00:32:12.400 Yes, he was.
00:32:13.020 He was.
00:32:13.740 Yes, he was.
00:32:14.580 Was.
00:32:15.060 He had to be because he's responsible, obviously, for slavery, as we heard from Representative
00:32:19.020 Al Green.
00:32:19.840 Right.
00:32:20.620 He has to, now he has to be impeached.
00:32:22.700 Yeah.
00:32:22.940 Because of slavery.
00:32:24.080 Slavery.
00:32:25.100 Yes.
00:32:25.640 And you know what?
00:32:26.660 And you know what?
00:32:27.540 As unfair as it seems, I might be willing to go along if we can get past slavery.
00:32:36.080 If all is required is Donald Trump to be impeached for the good of the country so we can finally
00:32:44.140 move on.
00:32:45.140 I might be for that.
00:32:46.280 If this actually settles the issue.
00:32:47.720 Yeah, if this settles the issue, I think Donald Trump might go, you know what?
00:32:50.600 It's good for the country.
00:32:54.060 I didn't even understand the Al Green point.
00:32:56.420 I mean, how do, what do you even make of that?
00:32:59.320 It's Al Green.
00:33:00.440 Yeah.
00:33:00.800 You know, it's similar to, though, is the O.J. Simpson thing, where you talk to the jurors
00:33:06.500 today, and they say, well, we didn't necessarily think he was innocent, but what we thought
00:33:10.440 was there was a lot of injustice over a long period of time, and they needed to pay.
00:33:16.040 And that's what's what Green's saying, right?
00:33:17.400 Like, slavery was really bad.
00:33:18.740 So, you know what?
00:33:20.180 This gets through him.
00:33:21.660 Right.
00:33:21.880 I was like, that's not how justice works.
00:33:23.980 This is exactly what I laid out on my first episode on the impeachment.
00:33:28.740 Remember?
00:33:29.180 I laid it out and said, this is the O.J. Simpson case.
00:33:31.840 This is the glove.
00:33:33.180 Yes.
00:33:33.540 This is the glove.
00:33:33.960 It doesn't matter what the evidence says.
00:33:37.060 Doesn't matter.
00:33:38.040 If the glove doesn't fit, you have to acquit.
00:33:40.720 And it was all based on emotion.
00:33:43.700 This is the worst.
00:33:45.160 Imagine, this is the kind of system that you're setting up for you.
00:33:49.320 By the way, have you been to the airport lately?
00:33:52.440 Have you seen clear?
00:33:54.240 Yeah.
00:33:54.780 It's like a fast pass through security, right?
00:33:57.840 Yeah.
00:33:57.980 How's that work?
00:33:58.900 How's that work?
00:33:59.660 I looked into it, and I've, because I thought maybe it would be something to sign up for,
00:34:05.740 and I don't know exactly how it works, but it's supposed to get you through the line.
00:34:10.300 Sure.
00:34:10.560 It's a retina scan.
00:34:11.960 It's a retina scan.
00:34:12.580 A retina scan.
00:34:13.220 You just give them your imprint of your retinas.
00:34:15.580 That's all they, don't do it.
00:34:16.980 It's a trap.
00:34:18.360 Okay?
00:34:19.100 Just so you know, retina, retina scanning is what one of the big things that I was against
00:34:25.040 in Common Core, when I found out why they wanted the kids on computers and why they needed
00:34:32.100 the cameras on every computer, was because they could retina scan your kid, and then they
00:34:37.620 would know when they were drifting, when they were thinking about something else, when they
00:34:40.820 were lying, when they were panicked, when anything.
00:34:42.880 Because the eyes are the windows to the soul.
00:34:47.200 Okay?
00:34:47.940 Now, I'm going a long way here.
00:34:49.440 We'll go back into retina scans later, but don't do it.
00:34:52.240 It's a trap!
00:34:54.080 But look at, now I've, good God, now I've forgotten what I was going to say.
00:34:59.900 How I was tying these two together.
00:35:03.200 Oh, crap.
00:35:04.780 It is a trap.
00:35:05.740 It must have been good, though.
00:35:05.920 It was really good.
00:35:07.860 It was really, oh, think about it.
00:35:09.660 If they could do this to the president now, with this shady evidence, when they have you
00:35:17.040 and all of your information, and all of your heartbeat, and everything else, just by scanning
00:35:23.760 your eye at all times, and they're the ones that have the information, not you, you don't
00:35:31.740 have it, they could manipulate any way they want.
00:35:34.840 But if this is what we deem as a fair hearing, a fair trial, and decency in America, on our
00:35:44.500 criminal system, on our justice system, if this is what we deem as fair and right and
00:35:50.740 righteous to the most powerful man in the world, what do you think it's going to be like
00:35:58.100 for you and your children?
00:36:00.380 Oh, it's going to be, it's going to be Soviet, uh, Soviet-style apprehensions.
00:36:05.780 You'll have no chance.
00:36:06.520 That's why the argument, well, I don't care what they're doing, I'm not doing anything
00:36:10.740 wrong, I can look at whatever I'm doing, I got nothing to hide.
00:36:14.360 Yeah, uh, yes, you do.
00:36:16.000 And you know what?
00:36:16.600 They decide what you have to hide, not you.
00:36:18.500 Right, and hang on just a second, you have nothing to hide.
00:36:20.520 Look at how many people have lost their jobs from something they did 20 years ago.
00:36:25.200 Yeah, or 40.
00:36:26.020 Or 40 years ago.
00:36:27.420 Look how they've been smeared.
00:36:28.620 That's not even talking, that's still saying you have something to hide.
00:36:32.440 You're thinking, I have nothing to hide in a just society.
00:36:37.920 This is not a just society anymore.
00:36:41.180 Are we even looking for justice?
00:36:44.180 Or are we just looking to feel good?
00:36:46.520 Are we looking to be right?
00:36:48.300 Are we looking to win?
00:36:49.940 Are we just looking to get that guy because we don't like him?
00:36:54.020 That society, you're right.
00:36:57.480 You may have nothing to worry about in a just society.
00:37:00.660 But in that society, the one we're becoming?
00:37:04.240 Oh, you shouldn't sleep at night.
00:37:06.220 You shouldn't freaking sleep at night.
00:37:11.020 Thanks, Fat.
00:37:11.700 Boy, I pulled that one out.
00:37:16.220 I almost completely forgot.
00:37:18.940 Welcome to the program.
00:37:21.240 Recent report, 83%, 83% of U.S. consumers plan to shop online for holiday gifts this year.

00:37:29.520 But I want you to remember this.
00:37:30.920 The FBI received nearly 300 online theft complaints in 2017 alone.
00:37:37.840 They reported losses at a total of $1.4 billion.
00:37:42.720 So before you hit that buy button this holiday season, remember that some websites are created for people who just want your credit card data and other personal information.

00:38:41.480 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
00:38:44.380 You know, this is so frustrating, the way the press does everything.
00:39:13.640 Because they make it, they make everything a binary choice.
00:39:18.640 Oh, so you're saying that they interfered.
00:39:22.900 Yes, they interfered.
00:39:24.340 Here's one way they interfered.
00:39:26.360 They provided the Black Ledger, which now is believed to be a fake.
00:39:31.700 So much so that the FBI did not use it in the prosecution of Paul Manafort.
00:39:38.660 Okay?
00:39:39.220 At least they're worried about it.
00:39:41.880 They don't know if it was forged.
00:39:43.280 They don't know.
00:39:43.980 They were worried about it enough to not even bring it up.
00:39:46.980 Yeah.
00:39:47.160 Okay?
00:39:47.900 So if that thing had credibility, they would have used it.
00:39:51.580 But what the FBI needed, what the Department of Justice needed, was just something new to be opening up a new case on Paul Manafort.
00:40:01.280 Because they had him.
00:40:02.120 Because the guy was guilty.
00:40:03.280 But if you bring up the fact that the Ukrainians, and through the work of Chalupa and the DNC, that they brought this what appears to be bogus blacklist to the DOJ for, it doesn't matter if it's bogus.
00:40:24.980 He was guilty.
00:40:26.560 We said that long before.
00:40:28.020 Should Paul Manafort go to prison?
00:40:29.920 Yes.
00:40:31.300 Not because of the Black Ledger.
00:40:33.200 But he was guilty.
00:40:34.360 He was dirty.
00:40:36.100 All right.
00:40:36.920 So did that.
00:40:37.800 Well, he was.
00:40:38.600 So you got a bad guy.
00:40:39.700 Yeah, you got a bad guy.
00:40:41.000 But you didn't get him before or, you know, way before he joined Trump or even before he got Trump.
00:40:47.080 You didn't get him after Trump was elected.
00:40:49.620 You got him during the election.
00:40:53.320 When you're trying to say Donald Trump is in bed with the Democrats, with the Russia, you got his guy thrown in jail for working and taking money from the Russians.
00:41:08.500 I mean, I think the scope of the Russian election influence was much larger than Ukraine.
00:41:13.980 Ukraine overall, corruption is another story.
00:41:15.820 But as far as their, the scope of the efforts was larger with Russia.
00:41:20.580 However, they did.
00:41:21.620 They created the hack on WikiLeaks.
00:41:24.140 I mean, they did all of that.
00:41:25.600 But the impact of the Ukrainian one was very large.
00:41:29.320 I mean, if this led, this ledger left to, I mean, think about it.
00:41:33.020 There are election cycles where the biggest story of the entire election would be the head of a campaign gets fired, gets fired in the middle of it because of corruption.
00:41:41.160 Right.
00:41:41.720 This is, this was just like Russian corruption.
00:41:45.100 It's pretty amazing.
00:41:46.100 It's huge, huge, huge, huge.
00:41:49.140 All right, back in a minute.
00:41:54.660 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
00:42:08.020 That is remarkable.
00:42:10.080 I'm a little shocked by that.
00:42:11.540 The silly music they put behind it kind of takes away from what's actually happening there.
00:42:16.860 Wow.
00:42:17.820 He did that?
00:42:19.700 Hitler, why do you think he was bad?
00:42:21.480 Yeah.
00:42:21.940 I mean, what do you think he did?
00:42:24.120 I mean, isn't that, like, that's the one, like, the knee-jerk reaction.
00:42:30.040 I don't know.
00:42:30.940 He stole the money from the people who bought the Volkswagen so he could finance the war.
00:42:35.680 What do you, what?
00:42:37.160 What did he do that was so bad that it was bigger than killing and exterminating six million Jews?
00:42:42.640 Those German citizens never got the vacations they were promised.
00:42:45.320 Yes, they didn't.
00:42:46.480 They didn't.
00:42:47.280 That's a real wrong from Adolf.
00:42:49.100 Oh, man.
00:42:50.280 Hey.
00:42:50.880 The Volkswagen.
00:42:53.360 All right.
00:42:54.040 Back in just a second.
00:42:55.760 I think we got it.
00:42:56.560 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:43:17.580 The Saudi national opened fire at the Naval Air Station in Pensacola, Florida, killing three, wounding eight others.
00:43:27.640 He hosted a dinner party prior to his attack, where he watched videos of mass shootings with his party guests.
00:43:37.440 The Associated Press reveals that authorities, as of this weekend, detained 10 Saudi nationals on a naval base.
00:43:45.500 They were held for questioning, while several others remain unaccounted for.
00:43:51.840 When is this country going to say this?
00:43:56.020 The Saudis are not our friends.
00:44:01.120 The Saudis, there may be people in there trying to do good, but as it stands today, are brutal barbarians.
00:44:11.880 More in one minute.
00:44:12.860 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:44:18.040 So this week, the House Judiciary Committee continues their show trial to, in fact, it's going on right now.
00:44:24.020 Could we just take, I want to just take this, this is really important, take a little bit of the debate about what.
00:44:29.800 Okay, that's enough.
00:44:31.360 Wow, I'm glad we slipped that in there, because there's a lot of really good stuff going on.
00:44:35.400 So, you know, there's huge corporate interest undermining our values and our Constitution on a daily basis.
00:44:43.120 Unfortunately, we're subsidizing some of it.
00:44:45.840 With Big Mobile, when you use your cell phone, you're practically voting for open borders, abortion, gun confiscation, and impeachment.
00:44:54.280 How could I possibly make that claim?
00:44:58.460 Because companies like Verizon are donating millions of dollars to left-wing causes.
00:45:05.380 That's partially your money every time you make a phone call.
00:45:09.100 Stop giving your money to people who are working all day long on the things that you despise.
00:45:19.200 Patriot Mobile, America's only cell phone service that donates a portion of your monthly bill to conservative organizations fighting for the values that you believe in.
00:45:27.400 And when you switch to Patriot Mobile this month, you can get a free Moto Z3 play when you open a new line of service.
00:45:34.380 Plus, you get a signed copy of Donald Trump Jr.'s new book, Triggered.
00:45:38.900 Now, do you think Verizon's doing either one of those?
00:45:42.980 I don't think so.
00:45:44.660 The phone call and the choice is really, really clear.
00:45:50.000 It's Patriot Mobile.
00:45:51.900 They make it easy to switch right now, keep your number, get reliable, nationwide service, no hidden fees.
00:45:58.480 You're going to get the same great coverage because they're on the same cell towers.
00:46:03.180 Everybody shares the same cell towers.
00:46:05.780 Get PatriotMobile.com slash back and use the promo code ZFREE or call 877-367-7524.
00:46:12.820 That's PatriotMobile.com slash back.
00:46:14.900 877-367-7524.
00:46:18.140 PatriotMobile.com slash back.
00:46:21.900 Oh, yeah.
00:46:31.000 Ten Saudi students were being held on the base on Saturday, while several others were unaccounted for, said an official who spoke on the condition of anonymity after being briefed by federal authorities.
00:46:43.880 The Blaze reported only six nationals were being held as of Friday night.
00:46:48.260 Officials have not said if the individuals are connected to Friday's tragedy.
00:46:52.720 Sources who spoke to CNN and the AP both said the officials are investigating whether the incident is terrorism related.
00:47:00.220 Oh.
00:47:02.680 Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:47:04.800 Don't die.
00:47:07.040 Terror.
00:47:07.520 Terror.
00:47:09.100 I think he was mad because they were making fun of his mustache.
00:47:14.640 That's what, that's what some are saying now, that this was all because of bullying.
00:47:20.880 They had said that he had a porn stache.
00:47:24.160 You know, a little mustache that looked like you were in a porno.
00:47:27.620 I mean, a Saudi should say, I've never seen a porno.
00:47:32.780 I don't even know what that means.
00:47:35.320 So, please stop saying that.
00:47:38.360 Allah be praised.
00:47:40.280 Blessed be upon Mohammed.
00:47:42.520 All of that stuff.
00:47:44.480 And then, of course, do what Mohammed said to do and cut the heads off of the infidel.
00:47:50.440 Oh, that's what he did.
00:47:51.720 Except he used a gun.
00:47:52.980 And he didn't cut anybody's heads off.
00:47:54.380 But he tried.
00:47:56.120 When are we going to learn?
00:47:59.340 Some of these guys were over, were giving them pilot training.
00:48:02.380 Um, hello.
00:48:04.840 At least now, I guess we can say we're training them to land the plane as well.
00:48:09.260 Can we stop training Saudi nationalists to fly planes?
00:48:13.800 It's part of the package, though.
00:48:14.640 When we sell them military equipment, like planes, we train them to use the planes.
00:48:18.800 You know, I don't know about you.
00:48:19.960 But, you know, once you have a guy shooting people up on one of our bases, I think you lose that privilege.
00:48:27.540 And you just think, you know what?
00:48:29.240 Uh-uh.
00:48:29.860 Well, I mean, I don't know if you've noticed.
00:48:32.060 They've made this a priority to sell them lots and lots of equipment.
00:48:35.040 It's something that we talk about all the time.
00:48:37.360 We're in a proxy war with them right now.
00:48:39.920 We're in a proxy war.
00:48:41.140 Meaning, we're helping Saudi Arabia fight their war in Yemen.
00:48:47.620 So, we're helping them.
00:48:50.800 And they're monsters.
00:48:52.240 Let's be honest about it.
00:48:53.400 They're, they're, there are monsters.
00:48:56.800 Oh, well, that makes it so much better.
00:48:59.800 You know, I've told you about, I'm reading this book called Poisoner in Chief.
00:49:03.000 And it's really, really, really good.
00:49:06.880 Uh, it's a little horrifying, uh, about, uh, our, our CIA and what we were doing with experimental drugs and testing on children as young as six.
00:49:17.460 We didn't get permission.
00:49:18.540 We just scooped them up from orphanages.
00:49:20.440 And we're like, uh, let's see how much, let's see how much LSD their body can take.
00:49:25.040 I mean, we did some really bad stuff.
00:49:27.320 However, when you're reading it, they're making the case on how bad we are because after World War II, we knew that they were working on biological weapons, both the Japanese and the Germans.
00:49:41.320 And they had done extensive testing on people.
00:49:45.480 I mean, the Japanese really made the Germans look like rookies.
00:49:49.040 They really did.
00:49:50.740 Um, in China, they just, they just took this whole five mile area or 10 mile area and they just cordoned it off.
00:49:58.680 And then they just started bringing people in and they would do horrible, horrible experiments, uh, on these people with biological weapons.
00:50:07.920 Well, the book is trying to set up how bad we are because we went over and we tried to get the information from those doctors because we wanted to know what they had learned about biological weapons.
00:50:22.500 Okay.
00:50:22.980 Well, that's bad.
00:50:23.840 I agree with you.
00:50:24.960 I agree with you.
00:50:25.620 And giving kids LSD, that's bad.
00:50:27.580 And it should have never happened.
00:50:28.860 And it embarrasses me.
00:50:30.280 However, um, why, why is that even equated to sticking people a post through their body, uh, while they're still alive and then, uh, hitting them with shrapnel from an anthrax bomb while they squirm on that post for six and seven days to see how they, see how they die and how long it takes them to die.
00:50:58.380 That's a little different.
00:51:00.720 It's a little different, but we're made out to be the bad guys.
00:51:06.140 And yet Japan, nobody's talking about what Japan did because what Japan did, Japan hopefully won't be doing now.
00:51:15.140 What they did in the past, Germans did that.
00:51:18.160 And hopefully Germans aren't doing that now.
00:51:21.400 I think they learned their lesson.
00:51:23.260 Well, why are we the only ones that cannot ever let go of our past ever, ever let go of our past?
00:51:33.740 The only time that you can be excused and let go of your past is when you've learned from it and you stop making the same mistake.
00:51:42.280 Can we stop making the same mistake and, and adopting monsters around the world as our friends?
00:51:50.540 I don't want to be in bed with monsters.
00:51:53.420 I don't think anybody in the country wants to be in bed with monsters, but our state department will tell our president we have to be.
00:52:02.440 We, if we are not friends with the Saudis, then this and this and this will happen.
00:52:07.140 Well, you know, that the same thing they said about Donald Trump, not meeting with North Korea.
00:52:15.620 Okay.
00:52:16.260 Don't meet with him.
00:52:17.400 I thought that was insane too.
00:52:19.700 I didn't like that we were meeting with him, but I knew what was happening.
00:52:24.440 What Obama did and what Bush did was not working.
00:52:28.020 And you've got to do something.
00:52:30.820 Do you know that right now, uh, Kim Jong-il is, Kim Jong-un is now, uh, saber rattling, taking all these pictures on him on a horse in the mountains and they keep releasing it.
00:52:43.280 And he says a big Christmas surprise is coming for America, uh, and America should be warned, et cetera, et cetera.
00:52:50.280 Do you know why that's happening?
00:52:51.440 They always take pictures of him on horses before some big battle.
00:52:58.060 Okay.
00:52:58.340 It's a traditional thing that it would be like, you know, if we still believed in God, if our president went to Valley Forge and kneeled down in the forest and said a prayer, it would be a sign to America.
00:53:10.860 Uh, we're going to go into battle.
00:53:12.380 Okay.
00:53:12.920 That's what this is with a horse.
00:53:15.040 And so he's imaging himself as a tough guy, ready to go into war.
00:53:19.620 Well, why is he doing that?
00:53:22.000 Because Donald Trump has humiliated him inside of his own country by meeting with Donald Trump.
00:53:30.620 You know, we all said, he's going to get something.
00:53:33.020 He's going to get something.
00:53:34.220 We're going to give him something.
00:53:36.040 Nope.
00:53:36.600 Donald Trump gave him a nice talking to, Hey, you're great.
00:53:40.880 You should come to the table.
00:53:42.400 Let's.
00:53:43.140 And we all thought that was nuts.
00:53:45.720 It seems to be working because what Donald Trump did not do.
00:53:49.580 Was give them all of the things, the actual things that they've wanted that Obama gave them and Bush gave them.
00:53:57.440 He said, no, I'll meet with you.
00:54:00.340 I'll talk to you.
00:54:01.440 But you're not getting those things until you do X, Y, and Z.
00:54:06.020 So he just flipped the tables and we all freaked out.
00:54:09.240 But it looks now, this is, this is intelligence speculation.
00:54:13.320 We don't know for sure why and what's coming.
00:54:16.840 But it looks as though the pressure on him from his inner circle, from the communist leadership, is that he is so weak and pathetic that he did all this world stage with Donald Trump.
00:54:29.920 And yet he didn't get Donald Trump to give him anything.
00:54:32.920 And now they don't have the aid that they really need.
00:54:36.220 And so he's in trouble.
00:54:38.140 Well, that's pretty good.
00:54:42.000 How about this?
00:54:42.900 The State Department says that you can't get out of that deal with Iran.
00:54:47.080 You can't get out of that deal with Iran.
00:54:49.520 It'll cause the whole world to be set on fire.
00:54:52.720 You can't get out of that deal on Iran.
00:54:55.580 Well, the people in Iran are rising up against the regime.
00:54:59.040 Because when we got out of that deal, Donald Trump made the sanctions even tougher.
00:55:03.900 And guess what?
00:55:04.780 They appear to be working, and the whole world is not on fire because of that.
00:55:10.220 They told Donald Trump, don't make the embassy Jerusalem.
00:55:14.360 You can't do that.
00:55:15.320 No president has ever done that.
00:55:17.060 You've got to listen to us, the experts at the State Department.
00:55:20.680 Why?
00:55:21.280 Because the whole world will turn against us.
00:55:24.020 Guess what didn't happen?
00:55:26.960 I mean, I just, I just, I just don't understand.
00:55:33.680 I just honestly don't understand how people's hatred can be so deeply involved with Donald Trump that you can't at least admit the facts.
00:55:45.660 Look, I'm a guy who was against him in the first run up.
00:55:51.360 There's lots of things Donald Trump does that I don't like.
00:55:53.620 Look what I just said.
00:55:56.900 I didn't like that he went to North Korea.
00:56:00.520 But it may actually be working.
00:56:04.220 I didn't, I didn't like the, the Iranian deal.
00:56:08.660 But it concerned me what we were doing then and what we were doing now.
00:56:13.140 It still concerns me.
00:56:14.660 But it looks like it's working.
00:56:16.360 I didn't believe Donald Trump would say that about Jerusalem.
00:56:20.080 I didn't believe it for a second.
00:56:21.580 He did against all the experts.
00:56:25.920 You know what's happening here with Donald Trump?
00:56:27.940 The reason why people don't like him is because he's changing all of the dynamics.
00:56:33.180 All of the dynamics.
00:56:35.220 You, we, it's easy for us to point and say, look what he's doing to the press.
00:56:38.920 He's burning the press down to the ground.
00:56:41.340 And normally I would be against that.
00:56:45.080 I don't like the fact that we don't have anybody we can trust.
00:56:49.220 But that's not Donald Trump's fault.
00:56:51.120 That's the press's fault.
00:56:53.000 And if the press isn't going to tell the truth, they should be burned down to the ground.
00:56:56.700 With their own matches.
00:56:58.760 They're doing it, not him.
00:57:00.360 He's just pointing it out.
00:57:03.120 And he's strong enough to be able to keep standing and continuing to point this out.
00:57:08.780 They don't like him, not just because of the press.
00:57:13.100 They don't like him because everybody's power is going away.
00:57:17.280 What, why, what is this impeachment really about?
00:57:20.140 Civil Society 2.0.
00:57:22.360 If you don't know what it is, look it up.
00:57:24.100 If you don't know what it is, watch our latest special.
00:57:27.720 Our special, it came out about three weeks ago.
00:57:30.060 You can find it at Blaze TV.
00:57:31.580 You can find it on YouTube.
00:57:34.160 Look for Hydra.
00:57:35.660 The Democrats' Hydra.
00:57:36.960 Civil Society 2.0.
00:57:39.200 That's what this is about.
00:57:40.980 And that is all about the State Department being told by Donald Trump, shut up.
00:57:49.380 Shut up.
00:57:53.420 If you are going to disrupt things, you are going to be hated.
00:57:59.760 Everything is being disrupted.
00:58:01.440 All the old things are not going to be, at least, they may not all fall because the smart ones, like, I can't believe I'm saying this, like the intel and the government, they know, just play ball.
00:58:17.660 And social media is intertwining themselves with our government.
00:58:23.720 That will protect those weasels in the government and those weasels in social media.
00:58:29.320 But everything that doesn't adapt will burn to the ground because it's over, because it doesn't work.
00:58:36.980 It's been corrupt for far too long.
00:58:39.280 Do we have a healthy, do we have a healthy society?
00:58:49.300 I think the answer to that is really clear.
00:58:51.400 No.
00:58:53.040 Does our government have, do you have faith in our government?
00:58:58.820 The answer to that is no.
00:59:00.460 Does the world have faith in our government?
00:59:06.520 You could listen to either side.
00:59:09.380 And people will say, no, it's because of Barack Obama or no, because of Donald Trump.
00:59:15.220 They don't have faith in the United States.
00:59:18.460 Full faith and credit.
00:59:23.160 Does the United States have good credit?
00:59:25.800 Full faith and credit in the government of the United States is what is required for our money to not be worthless.
00:59:38.380 How do you think that's going?
00:59:39.620 Which direction is that going?
00:59:40.660 You see that thing turning around anytime you see us getting serious about our credit?
00:59:44.780 Nope.
00:59:45.540 Do you see us anytime getting, gaining credibility?
00:59:48.960 You think, you think Joe Biden is going to be able to turn the corner on our credibility?
00:59:56.780 Nope.
00:59:58.200 Full faith and credit.
00:59:59.900 May I suggest, I have full faith in the credit of gold because gold doesn't change.
01:00:08.720 The value of your dollar changes.
01:00:11.120 Gold doesn't go up or down in price.
01:00:14.260 Your dollar does.
01:00:16.720 So when your dollar is devalued, it appears as though gold is more expensive.
01:00:23.500 No, it just takes more of those dollars to buy it because the dollar that you had yesterday isn't worth the dollar that you had today.
01:00:34.020 That's what's happening.
01:00:36.380 Goldline.
01:00:37.420 Call them now, please.
01:00:39.580 It makes a great Christmas gift.
01:00:41.880 Just get a gold coin for your kids.
01:00:44.560 Get a small gold coin.
01:00:46.100 Get silver for your kids.
01:00:48.620 I know that I don't give flashy presents.
01:00:51.580 I really don't.
01:00:52.160 Well, I do sometimes, but I don't.
01:00:54.140 With my kids, I try to give them sensible things.
01:00:57.220 Things that you'll thank me in the end.
01:00:59.300 My daughter reminded me that when I gave her a pair of diamond earrings a few years ago when she first turned, I think, 21, I did say to her, they'll look lovely on you, but you keep them always because someday you may have to eat them and pick through your own poop to get them so you can get across a border.
01:01:18.740 However, that's how special gifts are from me.
01:01:24.720 Parenting.

01:01:38.420 We break for 10-second station ID.
01:01:40.180 Bum, bum, ba-da-bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum.
01:01:52.440 Hi, Stu.
01:01:52.920 Hi.
01:01:53.440 How are you?
01:01:54.320 I'm good.
01:01:55.260 I'm good.
01:01:55.400 You pointed out one little thing that's one of my fascinations in that monologue where you talked about how, you know, they, they went over with, I guess, it was China and Japan and how they, and we looked at, like, we went over and looked at their medical results.
01:02:10.160 because we wanted to find out what they learned and try to figure that out.
01:02:15.480 I found that to be a really fascinating thing about history
01:02:17.600 and that like a lot of things in normal medical practice are named after Nazi doctors.
01:02:25.700 So most people don't know this.
01:02:27.260 There was actually a group that tried to get this taken out of all hospitals.
01:02:32.340 Hospitals have a, I don't even remember what it's called,
01:02:35.460 but it's a big book on basic things like hypothermia, et cetera, et cetera.
01:02:39.280 Yeah, yeah.
01:02:39.620 All of that came from World War II experiments in Germany and Japan.
01:02:45.180 All of it.
01:02:45.780 We only know hypothermia and air pressure and all of that because of what the Germans were doing.
01:02:53.400 So if you come in with hypothermia or frostbite,
01:02:57.360 they're using and diagnosing using the information that we got from experimentation,
01:03:03.520 not us, but German experimentation on Jews.
01:03:07.260 So what do you do with that?
01:03:08.580 Do you not use that information?
01:03:10.100 Do you make their death all in vain?
01:03:12.960 Or do you take that and try to use it for good?
01:03:15.720 Yeah.
01:03:16.000 I mean, because there's a lot of terms, even with Nazi doctors' names still on them.
01:03:19.560 And they're slowly like removing them from these diseases and ailments
01:03:22.780 because the people that discovered them were Nazis.
01:03:25.400 And it's interesting because it's a great crystallization of progressivism versus individualism, right?
01:03:34.040 We absolutely could advance medical treatment really fast if we just discarded human life
01:03:40.400 and just said, screw those individuals.
01:03:42.320 Let's just do experiments.
01:03:43.540 We're going to find all sorts of really good things.
01:03:44.900 It would almost undoubtedly be better for the whole, right?
01:03:50.720 Oh, it would be.
01:03:51.340 It would be better for the collective.
01:03:54.380 If we took all the homeless people and did experiments on them and legitimate experiments on them,
01:03:58.860 it would be better for the collective.
01:04:00.220 Should we do that?
01:04:01.140 By the way.
01:04:01.800 No.
01:04:02.180 The answer is we should be clear.
01:04:03.480 No.
01:04:03.800 So, I'm sorry, Media Matters, I forget.
01:04:06.140 The answer to that is no.
01:04:08.120 So, what's interesting is in this book about Poisoner in Chief, when he goes to school,
01:04:14.340 what's the first thing he does?
01:04:16.960 Becomes a member of the Socialist Party.
01:04:20.180 And he has this collective mindset.
01:04:23.800 He's a hippie in the end.
01:04:26.000 He's a total hippie.
01:04:27.340 But he has this socialist mindset which allows him to care about the individual
01:04:33.000 but take care of the individual by destroying the collective.
01:04:39.560 All right, I want to talk to you about X-Chair.
01:04:41.840 X-Chair makes a great, great, would you please write down, Melissa,
01:04:46.580 order an X-Chair for Christmas.
01:04:48.960 I haven't done it yet.
01:04:50.420 And if I get to Christmas after all of this ribbing with my wife
01:04:53.100 and there's not an X-Chair there, I'm a dead man.
01:04:57.940 My wife wants an X-Chair.
01:04:59.560 I've got to get one for her.
01:05:00.740 And it's a great chair.
01:05:03.580 I have one in my office.
01:05:04.960 And I'll tell you, the reason why Tanya wants one is because she sat in mine in my office.

01:05:11.300 It's a great chair.

01:06:15.680 You know, I've got a lot of stories I want to talk about.
01:06:24.720 And so may I just go back and forth from story to story?
01:06:27.800 Some of them are good.
01:06:29.120 Some of them are great and fun.
01:06:32.060 Others are just like, oh, geez, really?
01:06:33.980 Do I have to deal with that?
01:06:34.740 So I'm going to kind of race through some of those.
01:06:36.580 But I want to give you all the news that I thought was fit to talk about today.
01:06:40.600 First, the blaze is reporting that Dame Emma Thompson.
01:06:45.780 Yes, Dame Emma Thompson.
01:06:48.100 Can you imagine if we had titles like Sir and Dame and the President could knight you?
01:06:56.380 Can you imagine how frustrating that would be?
01:06:59.400 All of the people who are liberal would all be.
01:07:02.380 We'd have to call them Sir.
01:07:05.400 Sir Al Gore.
01:07:06.660 I'm sorry, Sir Al Gore.
01:07:07.740 And he actually was knighted, wasn't he?
01:07:09.980 I don't think you can be knighted.
01:07:11.880 As an American citizen, I don't think you can.
01:07:13.440 You can be honorarily knighted.
01:07:15.960 Maybe.
01:07:16.540 You're not supposed to take any knighthoods or titles from foreign lands.
01:07:20.780 Makes sense.
01:07:21.920 And maybe you can get it as an honorary kind of thing, but you're not to accept a title from another land because we don't have them.
01:07:31.240 I mean, that's a really important thing.
01:07:32.500 We didn't want class structure like that.
01:07:36.580 This is also the beginnings and the formation of the Barron-Trump joke from the impeachment hearings last week.
01:07:46.320 You can name your kid Barron, but you can't make him a Barron.
01:07:50.380 Oh, you didn't finish it.
01:07:50.980 Get it?
01:07:51.500 Oh, yeah.
01:07:52.280 Now you're supposed to know.
01:07:53.020 Oh, now?
01:07:53.600 Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
01:07:55.100 That's so funny.
01:07:56.300 All right.
01:07:57.000 So actress climate activist Dame Emma Thompson, 60, issued a dire prediction on what life will be like due to climate change.
01:08:05.460 And we here at the BBC would like to report that the award-winning actress said climate change will affect the globe so much.
01:08:14.500 We need to be prepared.
01:08:16.340 We, quote, better warm up and stockpile food.
01:08:20.220 And remember that there is a surprising amount of protein in the average household pet, end quote.
01:08:27.340 Wait, what?
01:08:28.640 Uh, yes, she was saying that we may have to resort to eating our beloved Yorkies.
01:08:37.400 She actually went up.
01:08:39.000 Can we please just add this to the list of all the crazy things?
01:08:42.220 You know what?
01:08:42.680 If we're going to be dead in 10 years, I don't think I'm going to eat my pet.
01:08:48.060 But, I mean, I might go to the zoo and, you know, hey, you want to have giraffe tonight?
01:08:53.520 I mean, I've never had giraffe.
01:08:54.760 Do you think it sounds, does it taste good?
01:08:56.880 Let's try it.
01:08:57.540 Like, ask the people of Venezuela who are basically caught for other reasons.
01:09:01.040 Well, I can't get a hold of them because some reason or another, I don't know what it is.
01:09:06.760 Communications loss with Venezuela.
01:09:08.740 Hmm.
01:09:10.900 I mean, what would you do if you only had 10 years left, 12 years left?
01:09:14.320 No, we're at nine now, I think, aren't we?
01:09:16.480 Years left until the...
01:09:17.740 Until we are all dead, eating our pets.
01:09:19.720 Because of the climate.
01:09:21.040 Climate, yeah.
01:09:22.060 Hmm.
01:09:22.420 If you only had 10 years, I mean, I would...
01:09:24.300 I don't think...
01:09:25.600 I would say I would try to be a better person, you know?
01:09:29.320 And I think I would if I believed it.
01:09:32.080 But just like they say that this is happening, and so that would make you not want to buy a
01:09:38.760 $11 million house on an island.
01:09:42.440 They don't really believe it either.
01:09:43.940 It's an oddly specific number and location you're talking about there.
01:09:49.080 Yeah.
01:09:49.320 $11 million on an island.
01:09:50.700 Well, let's just say the island would be like Nantucket.
01:09:53.140 Or Martha's Vineyard.
01:09:54.160 Or Martha's Vineyard.
01:09:55.020 That would be even a better one.
01:09:56.660 It's right nearby.
01:09:57.500 Yeah, yeah.
01:09:58.180 That would even be a better one.
01:09:59.780 So, I don't have anybody in mind.
01:10:01.720 But it just shows that they don't believe it.
01:10:03.500 They clearly don't believe it.
01:10:04.160 They just don't believe it.
01:10:05.520 You see them building...
01:10:06.620 I mean, we made this point back in like 2000...
01:10:09.800 Gosh, sick.
01:10:10.340 When was an inconvenient book come out?
01:10:11.760 What came out?
01:10:12.860 One of the first things in an inconvenient book is a picture of the Miami skyline.
01:10:16.520 This is where the vote goes overwhelmingly to Democrats.
01:10:20.240 Yet, they keep building buildings in this area where they all say is going to be underwater within moments.
01:10:26.620 Yet, they keep building all of these buildings.
01:10:28.040 Now, they are building them tall.
01:10:29.360 Maybe they're just thinking they're just going to be above the water.
01:10:31.360 I don't know.
01:10:32.100 Sure.
01:10:32.500 Maybe that's it.
01:10:33.580 Maybe that's their line.
01:10:34.800 But it just seems like they don't actually believe these things.
01:10:37.580 They keep buying the houses right on the water.
01:10:39.720 They keep doing all of these things that would put themselves in their own financial future at risk.
01:10:45.040 But they keep doing it over and over and over again.
01:10:48.320 It's almost as if they don't believe it or they're utilizing global warming for another reason.
01:10:53.300 It's almost like you can name your son Barron, but you can still...
01:10:57.640 No, I know.
01:10:59.060 No, not yet.
01:10:59.820 Not yet.
01:11:00.080 Okay, I'm sorry.
01:11:01.000 You can name your son Barron, but you can still get an apartment in a high rise on the edge of Miami.
01:11:08.020 That's great.
01:11:09.340 That one didn't work as well.
01:11:10.460 Oh, really?
01:11:10.960 Okay, next story.
01:11:12.580 Joe Biden claims ignorance on his son's conflict of interest with Burisma.
01:11:18.440 He says he...
01:11:20.680 Nobody warned me about potential conflict of interest.
01:11:24.600 Nobody warned me about that.
01:11:26.880 Well, that's weird because we have State Department memos that where they're all freaking out about it.
01:11:34.520 And your son has said you asked him about it.
01:11:39.100 That is one...
01:11:39.780 You can't trust his son.
01:11:40.960 Well, you can't.
01:11:41.940 You're right.
01:11:42.440 You can't.
01:11:43.180 But that's like, you know, this is one of the things he did.
01:11:46.280 It's like when you have...
01:11:47.640 If you're someone...
01:11:49.160 You're Harvey Weinstein's secretary.
01:11:51.460 Uh-huh.
01:11:51.800 And someone says, hey, by the way, I've been hearing rumors about Harvey Weinstein with which...
01:11:55.800 Don't finish that sentence.
01:11:59.360 Don't want to know about it.
01:12:01.360 Don't want that information.
01:12:03.180 That's Joe Biden with Burisma and his son.
01:12:05.560 He did everything he could to not be on record talking about it.
01:12:09.240 In fact, said he never talked to his son about it.
01:12:12.220 It was only his son who said they did talk about it.
01:12:14.640 Well, here's the deal.
01:12:15.400 He said, look, there is nothing asserting that said that anything he did was illegal.
01:12:20.240 Nothing.
01:12:20.560 The reporter says, well, I'm not saying illegal.
01:12:24.520 I'm asking you, was it wrong?
01:12:26.820 Look, here's what I'm not going to do.
01:12:29.280 I'm not going to...
01:12:30.680 And I know you're not intending to do this.
01:12:33.020 Play the game of take your eye off the culprit.
01:12:36.500 That's a great game.
01:12:37.620 Kids love playing take your eye off the culprit.
01:12:40.660 It's one of the hottest Mattel games.
01:12:42.260 Take your eye off the culprit is good, but also malarkey, the new game show, malarkey is
01:12:51.600 really, really good.
01:12:52.880 It's really fun.
01:12:53.460 Yeah.
01:12:53.960 Much better.
01:12:54.580 You had to be born in the 90s to really play it.
01:12:57.780 The 1890s.
01:12:58.680 Right.
01:12:58.820 By the way, he also, while he said he didn't do anything wrong, I don't know anything about
01:13:07.180 it, I'm not aware of any of the conflict of interest stuff, and he did nothing wrong
01:13:13.040 here, he did also say this weekend that he's going to make sure that his son doesn't have
01:13:18.160 any business dealings outside of the country if he's president.
01:13:22.400 Wait, well, why?
01:13:23.580 Why?
01:13:23.700 If nothing was wrong, why would you bother with that, number one?
01:13:26.340 Right.
01:13:26.680 Number two, how exactly would you prohibit him from doing that?
01:13:30.400 What do you mean?
01:13:30.880 Because Hunter Biden can, he's an individual.
01:13:33.880 Yeah.
01:13:34.060 He can go take money from any foreign government that he wants to go take.
01:13:37.400 And by the way, we've made the point several times that it does not appear that Hunter
01:13:41.180 Biden and Joe Biden did do anything illegal.
01:13:43.740 That's the problem.
01:13:45.000 Well, no, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:13:46.520 We got to be really careful on this.
01:13:47.780 Be very, very, you're right.
01:13:48.980 Nothing illegal.
01:13:50.420 However, unethical according to the standards.
01:13:54.260 Yes, it's against the government ethics standard.
01:13:56.020 Right.
01:13:56.380 So as a government employee, Joe Biden should know this, especially as vice president, you
01:14:02.080 can't do anything that gives the appearance of problematic relationships.
01:14:09.560 Okay.
01:14:09.900 That's clearly what he's done.
01:14:11.780 So at worst, Joe Biden should say, I did violate the, I'm sorry, at best, he should say, I did
01:14:20.480 violate the ethical standards of my office.
01:14:23.100 You know, I didn't mean to, or whatever he wants to say, but it's a clear ethics violation
01:14:28.800 that anybody else would have been nailed for long ago.
01:14:33.020 And it's clear that it's an ethical violation.
01:14:36.720 Oh, yeah.
01:14:37.360 That's part of the job.
01:14:40.200 All right.
01:14:41.160 Uh, let me give you one more thing.
01:14:44.700 You have a Fitbit?
01:14:46.380 Uh, I do not.
01:14:47.700 It's a trap!
01:14:48.520 Do I look like I have a Fitbit?
01:14:49.980 Well, my wife wanted to give me a Fitbit.
01:14:55.460 And I, she said, you know, you could just track your steps.
01:14:58.680 And I said, well, sure.
01:15:01.040 I can tell you how many steps I'm taking right now.
01:15:04.420 As few as I possibly can.
01:15:06.360 And that's, uh, the, the Fitbit, I think is a problem in the future because it's going
01:15:12.360 to be tied in.
01:15:13.160 They're already doing this.
01:15:14.100 Some insurance companies are saying, hey, give us access to your Fitbit and you'll get
01:15:19.040 cheaper, uh, uh, cheaper life insurance and health insurance.
01:15:23.840 And so people see that as a benefit and that, you know, that's fine.
01:15:27.100 Um, however, it's going to be wear this or you won't get it.
01:15:31.280 Wear this or you'll play, you'll pay an extraordinarily high price because what are you hiding?
01:15:36.660 Well, I have nothing to hide.
01:15:38.460 So why wouldn't I wear the Fitbit?
01:15:40.920 We're seeing this with the car insurance now, right?
01:15:42.840 Like if we put, put your app on and we'll see how fast you drive and we'll give you a
01:15:46.080 discount.
01:15:46.500 Well, that, all right.
01:15:47.440 Okay.
01:15:47.820 Well, I want the discount.
01:15:48.760 I'll put it on.
01:15:49.460 But when it becomes so, when it becomes mandatory, when it's the other way, when it becomes an
01:15:53.440 opt, uh, uh, out instead of an opt-in.
01:15:55.680 Yes.
01:15:56.080 Right.
01:15:56.300 Then all of a sudden it's like, wait a minute.
01:15:57.980 So now you're getting charged double the amount for not using it.
01:16:01.760 Yeah.
01:16:02.360 Which is, uh, is it's going to be a lot more difficult.
01:16:04.380 This is the Cass Sunstein thing in effect.
01:16:06.640 Just nudge.
01:16:07.000 We're just nudging you, just nudging you.
01:16:08.580 It's fine.
01:16:09.040 It's fine.
01:16:09.440 It's fine.
01:16:09.820 Until it becomes mandatory and then they can monitor everything.
01:16:14.520 You know, the new Apple iPhone, we'll talk about this maybe next hour, new Apple iPhone,
01:16:18.240 because they are prepared for 5G.
01:16:21.580 The new Apple iPhone, uh, has spatial, uh, recognition.
01:16:26.980 And so it's pattern, it's making a pattern of everything around you as well.
01:16:33.540 It's just that you don't have to worry about just the microphone or the camera.
01:16:36.940 It's gathering spatial information and able to see who is around you and send that information
01:16:45.200 up.
01:16:45.520 If you have a device, I have a device, my new, uh, device that's coming out next, we'll be
01:16:51.600 able to see your device, record that information, see how far away we were from each other, what
01:16:58.700 room, what the room was like.
01:17:00.080 All of this stuff is, is happening now, uh, and it'll be there in your phone.
01:17:04.180 And the great news is, is that Apple will keep that information and they'll never do
01:17:07.440 anything with it.
01:17:08.160 What could go wrong though?
01:17:08.900 Yeah.
01:17:09.140 Anyway, um, here's a, here's a story.
01:17:12.100 Um, the NFL network correspondent, Jane Slater, uh, discovered that her boyfriend was being
01:17:20.140 unfaithful.
01:17:21.620 All she did was give him a Fitbit and she gave him a Fitbit and then she was like, Hey, you
01:17:25.740 know what?
01:17:25.980 We should, we should work together on this.
01:17:27.980 And so they coordinated their, their Fitbit so they would send each other information.
01:17:32.560 Yeah.
01:17:32.660 You got to motivate each other workouts, make sure, Hey, you know, you really pushed it
01:17:36.740 hard at the gym today.
01:17:37.940 Good job.
01:17:38.340 Good job.
01:17:38.760 Good job.
01:17:39.420 Um, she apparently found out that, um, orange theory wasn't having classes at 4am.
01:17:45.760 Uh, and, uh, he would say, well, I was at orange theory.
01:17:49.080 No, they don't have classes at 4am.
01:17:51.940 Yeah.
01:17:52.500 Well, I guess it was seemingly what was happening is, um, his heart rate.
01:17:56.740 Yeah.
01:17:57.120 It was all physical activity spiking at 4am when he was unaccounted for her little, and
01:18:02.820 she gets a little buzz on her arm and she's like, uh, what's he doing right now?
01:18:08.100 He's working.
01:18:08.700 He's working out.
01:18:09.980 He's got his heart elevated.
01:18:12.180 Yeah.
01:18:13.560 Oops.
01:18:15.080 If your wife gives you a Fitbit, it's a trap.
01:18:18.740 All right.

01:20:07.780 All right.
01:20:22.080 I, uh, Sarah, do we have any sad music?
01:20:24.900 I have some sad, uh, oh, look at this.
01:20:27.300 Look at this.
01:20:27.920 Right at her fingertips.
01:20:30.740 Sarah Sullivan orchestrates and arranges all of our music for us.
01:20:35.480 Uh, some sad news among the, uh, mainstream media's focus on the impeachment of President
01:20:43.980 Donald Trump.
01:20:44.940 We have this unrelated story.
01:20:48.080 CNN has plummeted to a multi-year record low ratings slump.
01:20:53.160 Uh, CNN, uh, CNN fell to a five-year record low in the 24th, uh, 2554 demographic, a three-year
01:21:02.460 low in overall primetime viewers just last week.
01:21:06.000 This, according to Nielsen, they're not sure if we've made it in time.
01:21:10.680 We're not sure if there's anything we can do.
01:21:13.840 Don't say it.
01:21:14.760 CNN.
01:21:15.080 CNN, we're about to lose them.
01:21:19.700 Apparently, uh, they ranked 18th overall in primetime viewers.
01:21:25.420 When I was at Fox, we were number one.
01:21:28.260 They were 18 overall primetime viewers.
01:21:31.240 Networks like AMC, Freeform, HGTV, Food Network, the Hallmark Channel destroyed CNN in ratings.
01:21:40.460 Meanwhile, Fox News averaged more than 2 million primetime viewers.
01:21:45.220 Uh, by the way, the average on CNN was 620,000.
01:21:49.840 Mm.
01:21:50.780 Uh, 2 million primetime viewers.
01:21:53.320 Uh, MSNBC averaged 1.3 million primetime viewers, slotting them as third and fourth in
01:21:59.520 overall primetime networks behind ESPN and Hallmark.
01:22:03.660 Uh, Fox News led all networks in daytime viewers.
01:22:08.300 And, uh, CNN did not.
01:22:10.080 I love how Hallmark's just, just, they're just churning out these Christmas movies and
01:22:14.300 they're actually like, it works.
01:22:15.740 I love freaking watching that channel.
01:22:17.360 Can I tell you something?
01:22:18.100 It's so ridiculous.
01:22:18.640 My wife, I don't know how many times has said, just turn this off, turn the Hallmark channel
01:22:21.740 on.
01:22:22.720 Yeah.
01:22:23.200 It lets you escape.
01:22:24.580 Yeah.
01:22:25.000 And you see that now Netflix is making a bunch of these on their own too.
01:22:28.020 They have like a whole slew of the cheesy Christmas movies they're making now.
01:22:31.760 Now they have all the money, like, you know, this started as.
01:22:33.480 Who's doing this?
01:22:34.200 Like Netflix and.
01:22:35.560 Netflix.
01:22:35.780 Yeah.
01:22:35.960 And because, you know, it started as like US or a Hallmark and lifetime.
01:22:40.280 They needed kind of cheap programming.
01:22:41.800 They didn't get high level, you know, scripts and actors and filming.
01:22:45.080 And they just kind of like, you know, you put together something that's a made for TV
01:22:47.560 movie.
01:22:47.960 Now Netflix is like, we have all the money in the world and we're still making them this
01:22:51.560 exact way.
01:22:52.680 They're still the exact same thing.
01:22:54.100 There's something to be said for that though.
01:22:55.480 Yeah.
01:22:55.860 There's something.
01:22:56.360 I think people watch them just because it's a, it's an escape.
01:23:01.360 It's funny to be cheesy and sometimes they're, they're good.
01:23:05.860 And it all always turns out.
01:23:07.020 Okay.
01:23:07.280 Right.
01:23:07.660 It always turns out.
01:23:08.600 All right.
01:23:08.840 By the way, they did a poll on Americans.
01:23:11.300 Do you support impeachment?
01:23:12.960 People who watched MSNBC and CNN, 72% said yes.
01:23:16.820 For Fox news, 30%.
01:23:18.640 That's a huge divide.
01:23:21.220 The exact opposite.
01:23:22.400 What's that?
01:23:22.840 70 to 30.
01:23:23.740 It's the exact opposite.
01:23:25.160 Isn't that interesting?
01:23:26.420 And, and Trump is pissed at Fox too.
01:23:30.640 He's always, he's got somebody to be pissed at most of the time.
01:23:36.740 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
01:23:49.660 Got to get the circus music up.
01:23:51.220 So we talk about the election, but it could have been worse.
01:23:54.600 Don't you think?
01:23:56.640 How?
01:23:57.840 45 seconds.
01:23:58.240 Well, she could have handled it horribly.
01:24:00.020 Don't you think?
01:24:01.900 Yeah.
01:24:02.140 She actually, I mean, it's a pretty harsh line of questioning.
01:24:06.720 It's funny, but it was a little, it was, it was on the harsh, it was a harsh, harsh presentation.
01:24:11.500 I'd like to ask her, I'd like to ask her, I'd like to have her on her, ask her her policies and do a serious interview and just have this behind her the whole time.
01:24:18.380 Yeah.
01:24:18.900 You know, I think that might be, might be awkward.
01:24:23.160 But not if she didn't know it.
01:24:24.500 Or not if she didn't have headphones in.
01:24:25.840 Yeah.
01:24:27.020 That's right.
01:24:27.680 She wouldn't even know it was occurring.
01:24:28.600 Okay.
01:24:31.460 Back in just a minute.
01:24:32.560 Final out of the program.
01:24:33.620 Great one coming up.
01:24:34.380 Sarah, stop the music for just a second.
01:25:01.860 This is really important.
01:25:03.080 The, the, the, the, um, Intelligence Committee Majority Counsel, Daniel Goleman right now is making a statement.
01:25:10.060 And I just, can we please bring this up, please?
01:25:12.760 U.S. officials met with President Zelensky.
01:25:14.340 Okay, that's enough.
01:25:15.300 Is that not incredible?

01:25:24.200 After that meeting, Ambassador Sondland had a.
01:25:26.300 That's just amazing.

01:25:29.760 Yeah.

01:25:34.420 Wait, hang on.

01:25:47.120 And here's the thing.
01:25:48.160 Yeah.
01:25:48.320 They want to be able to spend time on the report today that the Obama administration was working
01:25:55.340 to manipulate figures from 2009 to 2011 to show the success of their military efforts.
01:26:01.040 And we're lying about it.
01:26:01.980 They want to cover that.
01:26:03.300 They want to get into that today if they can.
01:26:05.220 But they can't.
01:26:05.720 But they can't because of all of this.
01:26:07.280 Of course, we could get into it.
01:26:08.900 Because should we get into it?

01:27:57.720 More breaking news from the impeachment.
01:27:59.460 Can we...
01:27:59.920 ...to use the powers of his office.
01:28:01.580 Holy cow, is he guilty.
01:28:03.640 I mean, is he guilty or what?
01:28:05.500 I think he's double guilty.
01:28:06.780 I mean, I wasn't for it.
01:28:08.920 You know, I thought the impeachment, this thing is a scam.
01:28:11.020 And then I just heard that.
01:28:12.360 And I'm like, holy cow.
01:28:13.840 That was pretty powerful.
01:28:14.880 That's damning evidence.
01:28:15.900 Powerful.
01:28:16.900 And, you know, and unfortunately it does overshadow for a lot of the mainstream media.
01:28:23.420 Something they really want to cover?
01:28:24.880 Yeah, from the scandal-free White House of the Obama administration.
01:28:28.580 See, they didn't do anything wrong the entire time.
01:28:31.580 Now, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
01:28:32.800 Where are you getting this conspiracy theory?
01:28:36.100 From the Washington Post.
01:28:37.900 Pardon me?
01:28:38.020 Which is a hardcore right-wing organization.
01:28:40.780 Yeah.
01:28:41.660 Dedicated to take down President Obama's regime.
01:28:44.940 Don't we all know it, brother.
01:28:46.980 Yes.
01:28:48.020 And so I, if you look at this report, and they'd like to talk about it, they want to.
01:28:52.120 I mean, they want to.
01:28:52.820 Every news organization would love to be talking about this today instead of how bad Donald Trump is.
01:28:58.280 But instead, they have to talk about Trump because of, do we have some audio from the impeachment?
01:29:04.160 Shared commitment to quote-
01:29:05.360 Because of that.
01:29:06.160 Because of that?
01:29:07.400 It's pretty powerful.
01:29:07.860 Not the last one, but this one?
01:29:08.820 This one.
01:29:10.380 Corruption at all odds.
01:29:11.480 Whoa!
01:29:11.760 And that one, too.
01:29:13.540 Holy cow.
01:29:14.320 Riveting.
01:29:14.840 All right.
01:29:15.120 So the Obama administration had a little bit of an issue during the war.
01:29:19.600 Mm-hmm.
01:29:20.380 National Security Council official now saying that there was constant pressure from the Obama White House and then the Pentagon to produce figures to show the troop surge from 2009 to 2011 was working, despite hard evidence to the contrary.
01:29:33.360 It was impossible to create good metrics, they say.
01:29:36.840 We tried using troop numbers, train, violence levels, control of territory, and none of it painted an accurate picture.
01:29:42.240 The metrics were always manipulated for the duration of the war.
01:29:46.040 Huh.
01:29:46.200 Even when casualty counts and other figures looked bad, the senior NSCE official said the White House and Pentagon would spin them to the point of absurdity.
01:29:52.980 Suicide bombings in Kabul were portrayed as a sign of the Taliban's desperation, but the insurgents were too weak to engage in direct combat.
01:30:01.340 Meanwhile, a rise in U.S. troop deaths was cited as proof that American forces were taking the fight to the enemy.
01:30:07.000 So the same group of people, you know, on the left that were in production probably for the Post, you know, the movie about the Washington Post and how those journalists just were involved in propaganda, you know, there at the beginning of the Vietnam War because they were so enamored with Kennedy.
01:30:32.460 Yeah.
01:30:33.000 Yeah.
01:30:33.740 So they, as they're in production with that, there was nobody that thought, wow, we're so enamored with Barack Obama, we don't care if we're actually carrying his water and lying to the American people about the surge numbers?
01:30:49.640 Hmm.
01:30:50.320 It's a little weird, right?
01:30:51.180 It's weird.
01:30:51.680 You'd think they'd learn their lesson.
01:30:52.940 Mm-hmm.
01:30:53.360 But they didn't.
01:30:54.040 Yeah.
01:30:54.360 Yeah.
01:30:54.660 And then, you know, but that was the only, the only scandal.
01:30:57.760 That's the only scandal.
01:30:58.480 Yeah.
01:30:58.680 Certainly the IRS scandal was not a big deal, none of that.
01:31:00.840 Yeah.
01:31:01.120 Well, can we, can you shut up, shut the pie hole?
01:31:03.240 We've got breaking news.
01:31:04.260 White House meeting to occur, President Trump told the delegation they must talk to Rudy to get the visit scheduled.
01:31:10.340 Oh, my gosh.
01:31:10.800 Now, there is new information.
01:31:12.820 I didn't know that.
01:31:13.620 Did you know that?
01:31:14.660 Yeah.
01:31:15.080 Talk to Rudy.
01:31:17.060 They really like, Rudy Giuliani's the most popular guy in the world right now.
01:31:19.900 There's a huge article in the New York Times today, The Indispensable Man, how Giuliani led Trump to the brink of impeachment.
01:31:25.900 It goes back through his entire history.
01:31:28.200 Like, how did he get here to be the focus?
01:31:31.280 He was mentioned more than any person in the impeachment trial other than Trump himself.
01:31:36.300 Yeah.
01:31:36.500 Yeah.
01:31:36.720 And they really, I mean, he has become public enemy number one.
01:31:41.740 What's amazing is he's gone from America's mayor, everybody loved Rudy Giuliani, everybody loved Giuliani, to now, there's no way.
01:31:52.520 I mean.
01:31:53.080 Oh, yeah.
01:31:53.400 You know, if he wouldn't have gone to work for Donald Trump, they would have built the next airport or something and named it after him after he was dead.
01:32:02.880 There's no airport in his future now.
01:32:04.960 None.
01:32:05.620 None.
01:32:06.120 And why?
01:32:07.520 Because how does the New York Times explain this?
01:32:09.820 Because here's what Rudy Giuliani, the reason why he's involved.
01:32:13.700 He was hired by the president of the United States to be his personal attorney, his lawyer, to find out what the deal is with this Russia thing and to find, you know, who was causing this, what his defense could be, what the prosecution was going to say.
01:32:34.840 Well, that led him to one, to stop at one place, and that was Ukraine, because he tracked down where that stuff started.
01:32:44.840 He was tracking down the Steele dossier, remember.
01:32:47.640 So he's going and doing work for the Steele, to look into the Steele dossier.
01:32:52.420 How did the Steele dossier happen?
01:32:55.760 Who gave that information?
01:32:57.900 What happened with Paul Manafort?
01:32:59.940 And that all led to Ukraine.
01:33:03.260 Now, how did the New York Times say that it was handled?
01:33:07.220 Basic storyline here.
01:33:09.440 The 9-11 thing happens.
01:33:11.180 As you point out, he's America's mayor.
01:33:12.940 He runs for president of the United States, 2008.
01:33:15.560 Goes very badly.
01:33:16.680 Spends a lot of money.
01:33:17.480 Gets zero delegates.
01:33:18.600 Drops out of the race and now is no longer in the spotlight.
01:33:24.140 He's gone.
01:33:25.040 So he's desperate.
01:33:25.440 So now he's desperate.
01:33:26.120 He needs money and attention.
01:33:27.960 So he goes on.
01:33:28.700 He starts going on.
01:33:30.340 He does, of course, the media stuff.
01:33:31.560 But he has to pull back from that because he's making so much money with these, you know, sort of security endorsements and other legal things he's doing all around the world.
01:33:40.420 Sure.
01:33:41.040 So this is how he's finding this.
01:33:42.680 Wait, I thought he was out of the spotlight so he was desperate.
01:33:46.040 Yeah, he's desperate because he wants attention and money.
01:33:49.940 So he can't.
01:33:50.500 But what he was making, he had to get.
01:33:51.640 But he can't get the attention anymore because part of the reason he's getting all this money, part of the requirements of that is him not going on television all the time.
01:34:00.260 Okay.
01:34:00.540 So that's kind of the way they presented it.
01:34:01.840 Okay.
01:34:02.040 Again, this is the New York Times.
01:34:03.440 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:34:04.260 So the Times says that basically he's making tons and tons and tons of money and getting a more and more and more expensive lifestyle.
01:34:09.760 There's a detail here that's relatively interesting.
01:34:12.260 His personal life has descended into the sort of well-appointed shambles that material wealth can disguise, though not necessarily make any less fraught.
01:34:20.120 A third marriage has fallen into divorce court ruins, revealing monthly expenses of $230,000 for six homes.
01:34:28.280 And this is the part that gets me.
01:34:29.840 And 11 country club memberships.
01:34:33.400 Now, look, a country club is a nice thing.
01:34:36.100 And everybody likes a country club, I'm sure.
01:34:38.960 But is there a...
01:34:40.240 White privilege speaking.
01:34:42.300 11 country club memberships?
01:34:44.140 I mean, do you even get to visit them all in a year?
01:34:46.820 Like, I got to say, Rudy, if that's accurate.
01:34:50.180 I mean, you go for nine.
01:34:52.220 Yeah, seven to nine.
01:34:53.660 Like, an average person is fine.
01:34:54.840 Yeah, you go for nine, you can play a hole in the front nine, different hole, different club, you know?
01:34:59.900 Or you go for the 18, you know?
01:35:02.500 It's 18.
01:35:03.380 What do you have?
01:35:03.920 You have eight.
01:35:05.240 Why?
01:35:05.820 What's the point?
01:35:06.620 That's how real people play golf.
01:35:08.100 18 country club memberships, one hole per country club.
01:35:11.380 That's right.
01:35:11.820 That's awesome.
01:35:12.100 We take the jet and we play the first hole in Saratoga.
01:35:17.640 But the story basically makes the case that he really wanted Secretary of State in 2016, was sure he was getting it.
01:35:24.240 Because of the fact he was, you know, all the stuff he did for Trump during the campaign.
01:35:29.880 One detail I had actually never read, I've read multiple books about this election, is, and we've talked about this part of it before.
01:35:36.020 When the Access Hollywood tape comes out in 2016, you know, or in early October of 2016, the tape comes out, everybody, all of the people on his staff, including, you know, Spicer and, you know.
01:35:50.740 All of them say you're done.
01:35:51.740 Chris Christie and all, Reince Priebus, they're all scheduled to go on these Sunday shows to talk about other stuff.
01:35:58.720 All of them cancel.
01:36:00.000 The only person who doesn't cancel is Rudy Giuliani.
01:36:03.380 And Giuliani goes on all the networks.
01:36:06.140 I remember that.
01:36:06.980 And he was the only one out there defending him.
01:36:09.600 So he does this, and he comes back on the plane.
01:36:12.300 I had never heard this detail before.
01:36:14.400 Comes back on the plane.
01:36:15.880 He's walking up towards Trump.
01:36:18.020 They're about to go to some campaign rally.
01:36:19.640 Or no, it was to the debate, I think it was.
01:36:21.680 And he's up there, and they portray him walking through like, I'm the man.
01:36:25.080 I'm the only guy who would stand up for you.
01:36:27.400 Goes down, sits down, sits down next to Trump.
01:36:31.580 And Trump says, wow, you were terrible on those shows.
01:36:34.800 Low energy.
01:36:35.420 Oh, my gosh.
01:36:36.740 Oh, my gosh.
01:36:37.840 Low energy, Rudy.
01:36:39.000 Oh, my gosh.
01:36:41.140 I've never.
01:36:42.500 Hi.
01:36:43.160 Yeah.
01:36:43.280 This is the actual quote from the article.
01:36:47.160 Man, Rudy, you sucked.
01:36:49.660 You were weak.
01:36:50.980 Low energy.
01:36:52.360 What was his response?
01:36:52.980 This is America's mayor laying his entire career on the line to defend him in his worst moment.
01:36:59.640 And then it just says, Giuliani just slumped his seat.
01:37:02.120 One witness said, the plane grew silent.
01:37:05.360 I think I would have said, Don, baby.
01:37:08.820 I'm the only one.
01:37:11.260 It's me.
01:37:12.220 Me.
01:37:12.620 OK, maybe I was a little.
01:37:14.480 But I'm the only one.
01:37:16.540 Yeah.
01:37:16.900 And so he was supposed to get.
01:37:18.220 He believed he was going to get secretary of state.
01:37:19.760 The problem was he had so many.
01:37:22.300 Yeah.
01:37:22.780 He has foreign dealings.
01:37:24.980 He has foreign clients.
01:37:26.200 Lots of massive deals with foreign governments.
01:37:30.640 Right.
01:37:30.900 Who and and and and important people in foreign countries that don't always look so clean.
01:37:38.540 And a lot of times it was about security and he was a security consultant.
01:37:42.800 Right.
01:37:42.860 That was one of the big ways he was making his money.
01:37:44.880 So he was making six million dollars a year from one of his law firms that actually made him once he started working with Trump, he had to leave.
01:37:50.780 He lost all that money.
01:37:51.940 So he lost a lot of money to go with Trump.
01:37:54.820 His wife's his ex-wife's one of his ex-wife's cases is that he really just needs the attention to survive.
01:38:00.340 Now, again, this is an incredibly negative article about Giuliani.
01:38:03.620 They're not giving his side of this.
01:38:05.180 You've gotten his side of this.
01:38:06.360 Yeah.
01:38:06.680 And I hope I hope in the next few weeks I'm going to be doing another sit down with with Rudy Giuliani.
01:38:13.040 And because I want to I want him to lay it out.
01:38:16.000 Do they lay out why he was involved or are they just smearing him?
01:38:21.300 They do go into it.
01:38:22.360 I mean, they do they say that he was the personal attorney that was hired to defend Donald Trump and to find out where all of this stuff started, because that's the only reason why he was in Ukraine is he was trying to find out where did the Steele dossier?
01:38:39.520 Who was giving all of this stuff?
01:38:41.480 Where was that coming from?
01:38:42.860 Yeah, they do kind of go into that a little bit and a little bit.
01:38:45.780 They outlined sort of what you're talking about with the personal lawyer.
01:38:50.000 And it says, you know, he he's in the middle of this fight.
01:38:54.460 They're trying to figure out what's going on during they went into trying to promote the other side of this, especially during the Mueller situation.
01:39:03.580 And he Giuliani said, basically, look, this is a public relations war.
01:39:07.380 It's not a legal war.
01:39:08.280 This is an impeachment.
01:39:09.340 Right.
01:39:09.560 So it's different.
01:39:10.200 It's different than a normal legal hearing.
01:39:11.840 It says during this barrage, public opinion shifted slightly against impeachment based on Mueller findings.
01:39:16.820 And the Congress showed little appetite for pursuing it.
01:39:20.260 Mr. Giuliani took victory laps with scant attention.
01:39:23.380 At first, he shifted to the theater of combat away from television screens and into murky Ukraine politics.
01:39:29.040 Without Giuliani's push for money and Frank yearning for relevance, the Trump Ukrainian initiative might never have amounted to much more than presidential tweet storms.
01:39:37.420 Mr. Giuliani compressed the digital gases of the president's suspicions and wishful theories into what is now the molten core of impeachment.
01:39:45.820 Nothing shows how few limits Giuliani observed as plainly as his extended bear hugs of Lev Parnas and Igor Furman, his friends, clients, and fellow emissaries for the president of the United States, the men who brought his 9-11 dinner.
01:39:59.620 This is something they talked about earlier.
01:40:01.940 I have to tell you something.
01:40:02.920 I have to tell you.
01:40:03.400 When I talked to Giuliani about those two guys, his bear hugs for them as clients, Giuliani said, look, when you are an attorney and you represent people, you don't always represent the best people.
01:40:21.640 You're not always, yeah, you're not always representing the best people.
01:40:26.620 And when you're looking for dirt on organized crime, which is what Ukraine, what was happening in Ukraine, it's the good people who are staying out of it that have no information.
01:40:40.820 You got to get the people who are playing at that game.
01:40:45.840 It would be like smearing Rudy Giuliani if he had any ties to sources putting, you know, the crime families away.
01:40:57.060 If he had any sources that were also members or former members of the mob.
01:41:02.640 Of course, the prosecution had those people as sources.
01:41:07.400 Those were the people that were the witnesses.
01:41:10.340 Those are the people who knew how the mob worked.
01:41:13.180 Of course, we look into those people.
01:41:15.700 Of course, we stay close to those people.
01:41:17.800 Of course, the prosecutors and the police officers treat them with real respect when they're around them.
01:41:26.820 It doesn't mean that they love them.
01:41:29.220 It means that's who you're going to get information from.
01:41:33.420 That's how you're going to put it all together.
01:41:35.120 If you want to put the crime family away, you're going to have to talk to people that know about crime families.
01:41:44.080 American Financing Corporation, NMLS 182334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
01:41:51.180 That's the guy who ate that $100,000 banana this weekend, but we'll tell you about that.
01:41:54.200 He would never eat a banana.
01:41:55.840 You're right, you're right, you're right.
01:41:57.100 Did he eat some of the tape?
01:41:59.220 Is any of the tape there?
01:42:00.920 Yeah, he did eat the duct tape.
01:42:02.160 Yeah, okay.
01:42:02.660 That was definitely Jeffy then.
01:42:04.640 Look, rent payments are really, really high right now.
01:42:07.620 You're probably paying for your landlord's kid to go to college if you're paying for rent.
01:42:16.360 You're paying the mortgage.
01:42:17.980 You're paying the mortgage.
01:42:19.200 Why not pay your mortgage instead?
01:42:21.780 You might think that's not doable, but American Financing, they think they can save you on down payments, some real cash on down payments.
01:42:31.660 They also think that your payment, you could save a lot of money by getting a loan for a mortgage right now because mortgage rates are so incredibly low.
01:42:43.560 I want you to just call for information and just explain your situation.
01:42:47.300 If you're thinking about buying a house, explain your situation.
01:42:49.980 Even if you're in the middle of getting another loan from another bank, remember, you're not dishonoring it by saying, you know what?
01:42:58.080 I found a better deal.
01:42:59.180 This is a business transaction.
01:43:01.800 Call American Financing.
01:43:03.040 It'll take you 10 minutes.
01:43:04.740 They'll tell you if they can find a better deal for you or not.

01:43:17.240 We break for 10 seconds, Station ID.
01:43:28.580 Okay, you know who Chuck Todd did not laugh at on Meet the Press?
01:43:34.340 Jerry Nadler.
01:43:35.160 Nadler didn't laugh at Jerry Nadler when he said this.
01:43:40.560 In the face of an abundance of uncontested evidence that the president poses a threat to our election, that he put his own interests above the interests of the country,
01:43:51.300 are they going to be patriots or are they going to be partisans, speaking of the Senate?
01:43:56.260 If he's acquitted, do you think we'll have a fair election in 2020, asked Chuck Todd.
01:44:03.200 Nadler responds, I don't know.
01:44:08.200 The president, based on his past performance, will do everything he can to make it not a fair election.
01:44:16.700 Excuse me?
01:44:17.600 So let me just see if I have this right.
01:44:22.160 And when you use uncontested facts, you're right.
01:44:24.880 They are uncontested because you wouldn't let anybody who could actually contest those facts as part of the testimony and let them be heard.
01:44:32.060 So if the House decides that they want to impeach, that's not a trial, by the way.
01:44:39.500 The trial hasn't happened.
01:44:40.780 This is the grand jury.
01:44:42.040 If the trial happens and the Supreme Court justice, who is not really a friend of anybody who is really conservative,
01:44:53.500 if he's sitting at the head and holding an impeachment trial,
01:44:58.040 you're telling me that the president will have rigged that?
01:45:05.480 That unless they find him guilty, it will have been rigged?
01:45:11.320 So we shouldn't believe that.
01:45:14.240 That's just a criminal getting away with it.
01:45:16.820 Okay.
01:45:17.360 All right.
01:45:17.740 And because of his history, which, where is the history?
01:45:22.920 Where is the history?
01:45:24.820 You haven't proven it in Ukraine, and it was disproven in Russia.
01:45:29.940 Because of his history, he's going to rig this next election?
01:45:35.080 Jerry, let me ask you, who's doing damage to the American Republic?
01:45:39.580 Remember how mad they were?
01:45:40.740 They said Donald Trump might not accept the election results when he loses to Hillary Clinton.
01:45:44.940 Remember that?
01:45:45.520 It was like it was a media firestorm for weeks and weeks and weeks.
01:45:48.320 If we can't do that, it'll destroy the American Republic.
01:45:51.040 You're putting questions on our democracy.
01:45:53.040 Our democracy.
01:45:53.680 Oh.
01:45:54.120 They're doing it.
01:45:55.000 They're questioning the Senate, the Supreme Court.
01:46:00.840 They're questioning the election, the presidency.
01:46:05.460 Every institution we have.
01:46:06.520 Every institution we have, they're putting into question if they don't get their way.
01:46:12.860 Shame on you.
01:46:14.400 Shame on you.
01:46:15.520 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:46:20.620 All right, let me tell you about a luxury chair.
01:46:24.180 Luxury.
01:46:25.040 When you think of luxurious, think of the X chair.
01:46:29.180 The X chair with its patented dynamic variable lumbar support and 10 different settings.
01:46:34.680 The X chair, the most comfortable chair that you'll sit in.
01:46:38.180 The X chair with its mesh or with its rich Corinthian leather.
01:46:44.280 Oh, it's luxury.
01:46:46.600 It's the next generation in office chairs.
01:46:49.280 And thanks to their 30-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked, you don't have any risk.
01:46:54.140 Most companies can't make that kind of offer because they're not the luxurious X chair.
01:46:59.820 So don't settle for less than the very best.
01:47:03.440 It's X chair.
01:47:04.360 One for everybody's price range.
01:47:06.540 It's X.
01:47:07.080 Well, not everybody.
01:47:08.200 After everybody in the house is discredited and they're out kicking rocks underneath a bridge going, how did I get here?
01:47:14.900 They probably won't have the money for an X chair, but you can.

01:47:44.900 Will Witt from Prager University was out on college campuses asking people to rate people from worst to best.
01:48:13.680 I want you to listen.
01:48:15.700 Who's this?
01:48:16.580 Yeah, I don't know who this is.
01:48:17.500 That's Joseph Stalin.
01:48:18.880 He was a communist leader, killed millions of people.
01:48:21.360 Got it.
01:48:22.480 Best over there.
01:48:24.440 Worst.
01:48:25.720 Worst.
01:48:26.600 This is Jesus.
01:48:27.300 But it's Obama, black president.
01:48:28.760 So Obama's the best.
01:48:30.280 Then they replace Obama.
01:48:31.060 That's Hitler.
01:48:31.480 Jesus.
01:48:31.940 Which one's Hitler?
01:48:32.900 This Hitler?
01:48:33.680 Uh-huh.
01:48:33.980 Who's this?
01:48:34.680 That's Stalin.
01:48:36.120 You know who Stalin is?
01:48:37.200 Uh-uh.
01:48:37.840 Okay, fair enough.
01:48:38.800 Would you like to explain any of your choices?
01:48:42.040 Barack Obama.
01:48:42.800 I mean, that's black president, you know, black power.
01:48:44.900 What's your favorite thing about Obama?
01:48:46.720 Being black.
01:48:47.820 And being president.
01:48:48.920 Like, that's a big, like, accomplishment.
01:48:52.760 Think Trump is worse than Hitler?
01:48:54.540 Yes.
01:48:55.040 Yeah.
01:48:55.400 Could be.
01:48:55.820 Definitely.
01:48:56.700 Why do you say that?
01:48:57.940 He's childish.
01:48:59.080 Yeah.
01:48:59.500 That's all I gotta say.
01:49:00.140 He's trying to stop.
01:49:00.760 You know, like, food stamps.
01:49:01.760 People need those.
01:49:02.620 Do you think that ending food stamps is as bad as killing, like, six million Jews?
01:49:11.840 He did that?
01:49:13.360 He did that?
01:49:14.880 He did that?
01:49:16.580 That's incredible.
01:49:17.160 Okay, so let's just go back to what we learned here.
01:49:19.580 First of all, immediately, Barack Obama, without even looking at anybody else, Barack Obama
01:49:25.860 is put down as the best person, only replaced by Jesus.
01:49:30.520 Okay?
01:49:31.600 Why?
01:49:33.000 Does he make it to number four or, you know, the second best?
01:49:37.820 Because he's black.
01:49:39.400 That was it.
01:49:40.740 Black.
01:49:41.360 And being black and president, that was quite an accomplishment.
01:49:44.840 Yeah, but that wasn't enough.
01:49:46.640 Is it?
01:49:48.700 I mean, is it?
01:49:50.400 Don't you have to, you know, do something?
01:49:53.700 Be something?
01:49:54.860 How about some policies that he did?
01:49:56.760 Robert Mugabe was also a black leader and led a nation to do it very well, though.
01:50:02.140 Idi Amin did some bad things.
01:50:05.320 The skin color is not a good thing to judge people on.
01:50:07.940 Yeah, it's just not good.
01:50:08.900 It's an innovative new idea.
01:50:10.400 Yeah.
01:50:10.620 And maybe just because people have done it in the past to terrible result doesn't mean
01:50:14.820 you should just take it on as your current policy because you think you'll do it right.
01:50:19.380 That's not a good idea.
01:50:20.360 So Barack Obama is followed by Jesus.
01:50:24.320 Then Stalin, because they don't know who he is.
01:50:29.580 Neither one of these college students know who Joseph Stalin is, even when they say the
01:50:36.240 name.
01:50:36.500 Now, I could give you, okay, maybe I don't know the picture.
01:50:39.160 How you don't know the picture of the guy in the uniform with the big Stalin mustache?
01:50:43.520 I don't know.
01:50:44.560 You, okay, we show you a picture, but you don't know it.
01:50:47.200 All right.
01:50:47.720 It's Joseph Stalin.
01:50:48.760 Do you know who that is?
01:50:51.200 No.
01:50:51.620 You don't know who Joseph Stalin is.
01:50:56.720 I'll bet you you say you're a socialist.
01:51:00.200 Then number two is Adolf Hitler.
01:51:03.300 Number one is Donald Trump because Donald Trump.
01:51:07.020 Well, can you be?
01:51:07.760 He's childish, right?
01:51:08.660 Yeah.
01:51:08.880 He's childish.
01:51:11.300 He's childish.
01:51:13.660 Okay.
01:51:14.100 Then maybe you put him in third place for being childish.
01:51:17.280 You know what I mean?
01:51:17.960 Right.
01:51:18.520 He's a middle of the pack guy.
01:51:19.720 Yeah.
01:51:20.080 Jesus, Obama, the childish one, then probably Stalin and Hitler.
01:51:26.700 But I could go either way.
01:51:28.000 You have one of them in the first place and the other one in number two.
01:51:30.900 I'm not going to argue with you.
01:51:32.280 If you don't have Jesus in the number one place of best guy, I'm going to argue with
01:51:37.420 you.
01:51:38.500 Stalin and Hitler.
01:51:39.400 Now they're both really, really bad, killed millions of people.
01:51:43.500 But not only do they not know who Stalin is by name or by picture, when asked, don't
01:51:50.480 you think childishness or food stamps is a little less than killing millions of Jews?
01:51:58.100 The response is he did that.
01:52:01.980 How is it possible?
01:52:04.180 No, no, no.
01:52:04.700 How is it possible?
01:52:05.200 Can I complete that sentence?
01:52:06.260 How is it possible that we're going to survive as a republic?
01:52:10.000 If people don't know that, you don't know anything like that.
01:52:12.740 I feel like Adolf's pretty famous to the extent that no one even tries to pull off his mustache
01:52:17.160 anymore.
01:52:17.960 I mean, his entire facial hair structure has been wiped out because of what he did.
01:52:22.280 Think of this.
01:52:23.100 The only guy from silent films that everybody, I don't say that anymore, back just a few years
01:52:30.380 ago, before we became morons, everyone knew Charlie Chaplin.
01:52:34.800 I think you could say Charlie Chaplin, even to these two, and maybe they would go the guy
01:52:41.580 with the funny mustache.
01:52:43.200 Okay.
01:52:43.800 He was so important to the global culture that today his imprint still is around.
01:52:52.020 You could still see it and go, oh yeah, that's that silent movie guy.
01:52:54.980 His iconic feature was the mustache.
01:53:00.880 He had it before Hitler.
01:53:04.360 Hitler comes in, what, has a nasty cold, is not nice to people?
01:53:11.040 He did something.
01:53:12.620 Something bad.
01:53:13.220 Something bad where that mustache can never, ever, ever be worn again.
01:53:18.520 Now, I don't think it necessarily looks good, but you can't wear that, dude.
01:53:23.620 Well, I will say, this settles the debate of all time between LeBron James and Michael
01:53:27.180 Jordan, because Jordan did wear it and still pulled it off and was able to still be in
01:53:31.860 public.
01:53:32.640 No, he didn't.
01:53:33.120 Yes, Jordan had the Hitler mustache for a while.
01:53:35.160 Michael Jordan?
01:53:36.280 Michael Jordan?
01:53:37.040 Michael Jordan.
01:53:37.860 The Nike, the greatest basketball player of all time?
01:53:40.140 That guy?
01:53:40.400 Yes, that guy.
01:53:41.540 Show me a picture of that.
01:53:42.480 I don't believe that.
01:53:43.160 Can we show him?
01:53:44.200 She's Googling as we speak.
01:53:45.440 Yes.
01:53:46.080 He had the, I think, you know, he's a very well-known gambler.
01:53:49.640 I swear he lost the bet and he had to wear the Hitler mustache.
01:53:52.000 It's never been disclosed to my knowledge.
01:53:54.740 But yes, Jordan had the Hitler mustache for a while.
01:53:57.880 And it kind of worked on him.
01:53:59.280 Yeah, he's Jordan.
01:54:00.520 He gets to do whatever he wants.
01:54:02.440 But I mean, that's the only thing that can overcome, apparently.
01:54:05.180 You know, isn't that weird?
01:54:06.260 You know, when you get to that point where you're famous for doing something and it's
01:54:14.380 good, you're good at something.
01:54:15.900 Right.
01:54:16.320 You know what I mean?
01:54:16.860 And you can pretty much pull off anything.
01:54:19.380 And everybody's like, you know, on him it works.
01:54:22.020 No.
01:54:22.680 Yeah.
01:54:23.220 Well, it's like, why?
01:54:24.940 I know.
01:54:25.480 It doesn't.
01:54:25.880 I know.
01:54:26.040 Well, because, you know, it goes back to, again, in the NBA where a lot of these guys
01:54:29.600 now will do their press conferences and they're dressed basically like Urkel.
01:54:34.280 Yeah.
01:54:34.740 Basically dressed like Urkel.
01:54:35.900 And it's all of a sudden fashionable.
01:54:37.180 And you're like, well, why are you dressed like Urkel?
01:54:38.840 And it's like, well, they're NBA stars.
01:54:40.380 So they get to do whatever they want.
01:54:41.680 That doesn't mean that the decision they're making is good.
01:54:43.620 But they're NBA stars.
01:54:45.140 So they look good.
01:54:45.800 They're in very good shape.
01:54:47.360 And, you know, this works for them.
01:54:49.640 If I wouldn't have been called a racist, I had an honest question standing in line at
01:54:54.260 the TSA this weekend.
01:54:56.380 Okay.
01:54:57.100 I'm standing in line at TSA.
01:54:59.640 And I'm being told to take off my belt.
01:55:02.540 But the three gentlemen in front of me weren't wearing belts.
01:55:07.340 And their pants were literally below their buttocks.
01:55:11.980 Okay.
01:55:12.420 So they may have been a little higher in the front, but all of them were like, all you'd
01:55:18.740 have to do is just take down the underwear and you could, you could sit down and go to
01:55:23.760 the bathroom.
01:55:24.360 All right.
01:55:24.700 Right.
01:55:25.020 You didn't have to pull the pants down.
01:55:26.240 They were already under the butt.
01:55:27.680 So it was efficient is what you're saying.
01:55:29.220 They're efficient.
01:55:29.940 Sure.
01:55:30.760 That's what I was trying to say.
01:55:32.120 Thank you, Stu.
01:55:33.360 And I looked at my son and I said, I'm being serious.
01:55:36.680 No jokes.
01:55:38.180 How do those pants stay up?
01:55:39.440 And from a, from a physics, how do, how are they, why none of them were pulling them
01:55:45.900 up?
01:55:46.060 Nobody was holding them, you know, nothing.
01:55:49.120 How are those pants staying up?
01:55:51.660 And I want to know.
01:55:52.380 And I, I would have asked, but no, I, you know, you couldn't, you can't as a, as a.
01:55:57.860 That would not have been a good moment if you did ask that at the TSA.
01:56:00.540 No, but I would like to know if anybody knows the physics of how pants stay on, worn like
01:56:06.400 that.
01:56:06.720 And you look like an idiot.
01:56:08.000 I mean, I don't need to see your underpants.
01:56:10.940 We're just wear your underpants and not wear underpants and leggings.
01:56:15.080 What are you doing?
01:56:16.040 I don't even understand it.
01:56:17.380 I don't want to understand.
01:56:18.560 But I will say, number one, you pointed out more efficient going to the bathroom, right?
01:56:22.040 You don't even have to.
01:56:22.980 Number two, more efficient in the TSA line.
01:56:25.220 They didn't have to take off belts.
01:56:26.580 They didn't.
01:56:27.280 Because they didn't wear, weren't wearing them.
01:56:29.060 So, I mean, who won this?
01:56:30.100 I think they did.
01:56:31.020 Yeah.
01:56:31.600 You know, you're clearly the one who didn't think this thing through.
01:56:35.500 That's the way it works.
01:56:37.020 It's innovation.
01:56:37.720 There you go.
01:56:38.300 It's innovation.
01:56:38.640 There you go.
01:56:38.960 Thank you for that, Stu.
01:56:40.180 I appreciate that.
01:56:42.180 I've got a couple of more stories left on, well, I've got, you're going to have to make
01:56:48.820 the choice.
01:56:49.300 I'll give you a break and then you make the choice, okay?
01:56:52.560 It is, Mars colonists might be surprised if they try to have sex with Earth-based humans,
01:57:02.280 it may be lethal.
01:57:04.780 New science.
01:57:05.340 So, if you have sex on Mars, you might die.
01:57:09.060 Yes.
01:57:09.360 If you're a scientist on Mars and the Earth traveler comes to you and is like, hey, lonely?
01:57:18.260 Right.
01:57:18.560 You've got to say yes, but no thank you.
01:57:22.200 Okay.
01:57:23.280 Interesting story.
01:57:23.940 Pretty interesting, yeah.
01:57:24.420 Yeah.
01:57:24.940 Star Wars actor, Daisy Ridley, denies being privileged and gets blasted online.
01:57:32.720 Oh, no.
01:57:33.320 She didn't say she got enough privilege because of her white skin?
01:57:37.860 Yeah, no, she didn't.
01:57:39.000 She said, privilege, show me.
01:57:42.580 Oh, not the thing to say.
01:57:43.480 Oh, my gosh.
01:57:44.060 Yeah.
01:57:44.420 They will show you.
01:57:45.260 And the third one is more of a Christmas story.
01:57:47.380 Why do people hang pickles on their Christmas tree?
01:57:50.660 Experts say, experts say there are three answers, but I only believe one of them, and it's only
01:58:00.320 because I know history.
01:58:02.380 So, I have those three answers for you and those three stories you pick in just a couple
01:58:07.300 of seconds.
01:58:07.660 First, let me stop, take a quick break.
01:58:10.780 Gratitude.
01:58:12.160 Gratitude.

01:58:18.500 things that come their way.

01:58:32.400 The newest is the Giza Dream Sheets, which I love.
01:58:38.860 I laid down.
01:58:40.080 I got home yesterday, and I was so tired.
01:58:42.100 I just flopped on the bed.
01:58:44.100 And we have white sheets and then a white, you know, comforter over it.
01:58:49.040 And I thought it was the sheet, and I was like, oh, my wife put these damn linen sheets
01:58:54.680 on again.
01:58:55.180 I hate these linen sheets.
01:58:56.540 It was the comforter, thank goodness.
01:58:58.420 And I pulled that down, and, oh, these Giza sheets are so soft and so great.

01:59:50.640 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
01:59:54.420 Still choose your news.
02:00:15.060 Headline number one, Star Wars actress Daisy Ridley denies being privileged.
02:00:20.580 It's blasted online.
02:00:21.940 And we know that story.
02:00:24.560 It's some unfair criticism of her, I would assume.
02:00:27.560 A short-sighted Mars colonist could find sex with Earth-based humans lethal.
02:00:33.700 It's a good story.
02:00:34.700 It's a good story, but I feel like we have time to figure that one out.
02:00:37.320 You know, like, the colonist thing hasn't happened yet.
02:00:41.000 I mean, by the time it does, I'm probably not going to be all that interested in sex.
02:00:44.420 So you're saying story number three, we have an urgent need to find why some people hang a pickle on their Christmas tree?
02:00:52.760 Hell yeah.
02:00:53.100 We're only a few weeks away.
02:00:55.340 All right.
02:00:55.600 So is that your choice?
02:00:56.380 Yes.
02:00:56.700 All right.
02:00:57.020 Pickle story.
02:00:57.500 Pickle story.
02:00:58.080 Here it is.
02:00:59.360 We all have Christmas traditions, but perhaps there's one you haven't heard of, the Christmas pickle.
02:01:05.180 Do you know the Christmas pickle?
02:01:06.340 I don't know the Christmas pickle.
02:01:07.920 Do you know?
02:01:08.600 Does anybody know?
02:01:09.380 Am I the only one that knows the Christmas pickle?
02:01:11.260 Have you ever seen the ornaments that look like a pickle that people hang on trees?
02:01:15.640 I have not.
02:01:16.440 However, considering there's an article about it, you can't be the only one who knows about it unless you wrote the article.
02:01:21.120 Right.
02:01:21.960 Okay.
02:01:22.400 So the Christmas pickle.
02:01:25.160 A lot of people put the pickle, and your deal is at the end of Christmas, I think, is, you know, who can find the pickle?
02:01:32.260 You hide the pickle in the tree.
02:01:33.580 This does not sound like a Christmas-based game.
02:01:35.540 No, it really sounds, it sounds like something that children should run from.
02:01:39.720 Or something that might happen on Mars in the future.
02:01:42.780 Find the pickle.
02:01:43.900 Anyway.
02:01:45.020 All right.
02:01:45.580 So they don't know how exactly.
02:01:49.040 There is one theory.
02:01:51.080 There are three of them.
02:01:51.900 I only buy one.
02:01:53.460 According to several sources, in the late 1880s, Woolworths began selling glass ornaments imported from Germany.
02:02:00.420 These ornaments were made in the shapes of fruits and vegetables, including the pickle.
02:02:04.240 It's unclear why the pickle became the tradition.
02:02:07.400 It was green and hard to find on the tree, perhaps.
02:02:11.700 Okay.
02:02:11.900 That's one theory.
02:02:12.760 That's potentially believable, but boring.
02:02:14.960 All right.
02:02:15.680 Another theory includes a soldier in the American Civil War.
02:02:19.560 When the soldier was taken prisoner on Christmas Eve, he begged a guard for one last pickle before he died.
02:02:26.100 The guard gave him a pickle, and it gave him the strength he needed to survive.
02:02:30.620 When the soldier returned to his family, he started the tradition of hiding a pickle on the Christmas tree every year.
02:02:37.060 That does not seem believable to me either.
02:02:40.880 Who would ask for a pickle as your last meal?
02:02:43.440 No, he didn't.
02:02:44.360 Well, he begged for the last pickle because that was the only thing around.
02:02:48.900 I mean, I would beg for a pickle if that's the only food that was around.
02:02:53.460 I mean, pizza would be a more.
02:02:55.020 Uber Eats, and they'll bring it to you.
02:02:56.720 Just call.
02:02:57.160 No matter where you are.
02:02:57.820 Uber Eats, dude.
02:02:59.120 Hurry.
02:02:59.520 Third, two Spanish boys who were traveling home for the holidays from their boarding school, they stopped for the night at an inn where they were killed, and then their bodies were put in a pickle barrel, later to be cooked up and eaten.
02:03:15.720 What?
02:03:16.500 St. Nicholas stopped at the inn, found the boys in the barrel, and brought them back to life.
02:03:22.640 Brought them back to life?
02:03:23.820 Yeah.
02:03:24.340 Wow.
02:03:24.760 After being chopped up.
02:03:25.520 That's some heavy lifting.
02:03:26.860 Yeah.
02:03:27.060 Which one is the one I believe is true?
02:03:31.400 I got to just assume because it involves chopped up children, it's probably that one.
02:03:36.940 Right?
02:03:37.360 You're probably the one who's like, yeah, the pickle barrel thing.
02:03:39.800 I'll tell you why.
02:03:40.720 Because they're coming for you.
02:03:41.920 That's going to be your...
02:03:42.660 That's your answer.
02:03:44.340 The concentration camp?
02:03:45.520 Yeah, they're coming for you.
02:03:46.480 Well, that's number two.
02:03:47.700 That's an American concentration camp.
02:03:50.400 That's true.
02:03:51.260 Yeah.
02:03:51.420 I mean, but that person lived.
02:03:53.900 Well, I guess the other one was brought back to life.
02:03:56.340 Yeah.
02:03:56.620 They're both pretty dark.
02:03:59.060 Okay.
02:03:59.720 I mean, the American concentration camp does seem like the name of your potential next book.
02:04:04.200 So let's go with that one.
02:04:06.580 No, you should have stuck with the first guess.
02:04:09.000 It is the third one.
02:04:10.220 And the story is this.
02:04:11.380 They don't have the story right.
02:04:12.420 The story is, this is one of St. Nicholas' miracles, that two boys were out looking for their lost brother.
02:04:20.100 And as they were looking for this kid, they stopped at an inn.
02:04:27.220 This inn, back in these days, in the dark ages, they didn't care.
02:04:32.280 This innkeeper was notorious.
02:04:34.640 Little kids would disappear all the time.
02:04:36.600 But if you were a stranger, you were definitely marked because he was making sausage out of people in pickle jars.
02:04:43.660 Or in pickle containers in the basement of this place.
02:04:46.980 So he killed the kids.
02:04:49.060 St. Nicholas, the family finally asked the bishop, St. Nicholas, could you please go and find my children?
02:04:55.980 They're all gone now.
02:04:57.420 He happened to stop at this, got a prompting, went downstairs, found the children chopped up.
02:05:02.960 The story is, he brought them back to life out of those pickle jars.
02:05:07.460 Were you put them back together first, or were they just like walking around parts?
02:05:10.840 Because that makes a darker story.
02:05:12.980 You have a way to wreck every sweet Christmas story, don't you?
02:05:16.800 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
