00:05:28.940The Georgia Secretary of State released an audio recording of President Donald Trump's December phone call with the state's top election investigator.
00:05:36.640The recording revealed that the Post misquoted Trump's comments on the call based on information provided by a source.
00:05:44.020Trump did not tell the investigator to, quote, find the fraud, end quote.
00:05:58.000He's asking them to do something wrong.
00:06:00.380You could take it a couple of different ways, but you could definitely take it that way.
00:06:03.260And when you're getting a call from the President of the United States in this moment, you probably would take it in the most, you know, I don't know, threatening way possible.
00:06:12.420Now, remember the state of events here.
00:06:15.780Trump has already the election has been certified.
00:06:19.100And he's calling up to ask for him to go further into that, down that rabbit hole.
00:06:26.480The bigger deal, though, of course, is that the two Georgia election Senate seats are not decided.
00:06:45.420Trump did not tell investigators to find the fraud or say she would be, quote, a national hero if she did so.
00:06:51.560Instead, Trump urged the investigator to scrutinize ballots in Fulton County, Georgia, asserting she would find dishonesty there.
00:06:59.420He told her that he had, quote, the most important.
00:07:01.660She had, quote, the most important job in the country right now, end quote.
00:07:04.940Story about the recording can be found here.
00:07:06.540The headline and text of the story have been corrected to remove quotes misattributed to Trump.
00:07:11.520Now, this is not some local, you know, random paper.
00:07:15.360This is the Washington Post giving the definitive story about this particular phone call.
00:07:21.560And worse than misquoting him is actually writing the story without hearing the audio.
00:07:29.200You know, it's like you have to you have to just it's impossible to for me to understand anything other than they just were hoping they'd get away with this and that Trump would would cost this.
00:07:45.420This whole Trump story would cost the Republicans the Senate, which it wound up doing, arguably.
00:08:13.400It happens only because these reporters hate Donald Trump and they just assume certain things about him and they assume and assert insert certain things about him to fit their narrative.
00:09:51.340So he didn't tell the investigator to, quote, find the fraud, unquote, or and he didn't say that she would be, quote, a national hero, unquote, if if she did so.
00:10:03.520Instead, he urged the investigator to scrutinize ballot ballots in Fulton County.
00:10:48.360You know, we, I think, do a fair job, at least attempt to do a fair job in occasionally giving mainstream media credit when they do good things.
00:10:57.380You know, I'm not the type of person who's going to throw out every single story from the mainstream media and just say, oh, they're always lying.
00:11:02.780Like, for example, The New York Times has done really good reporting on Andrew Cuomo over the past couple of months, which, again, they waited a long time.
00:11:12.960But I'm glad they're on board and they have been able to to find multiple accusers.
00:11:19.800They've been able to dig up lots of information that, you know, only maybe The New York Times can.
00:11:25.480I mean, The New York Times has so many resources to go after these things.
00:11:28.520And when they actually put their mind to it, they can do some good reporting.
00:11:34.740I mean, they have done some valuable reporting over the years.
00:11:37.980But things like this are just inexcusable.
00:11:39.800And it becomes the easiest thing in the world, Pat, to have at your at your beck and call when everything you see always reinforces your previous beliefs.
00:11:52.320If you believe Donald Trump is a bad guy, that he's erratic, that he's going to do all these terrible things, then every story you cover, you just insert that in there and assume it's OK.
00:12:03.020So when you have a source telling you he said X, Y and Z and you have no evidence of that, well, your evidence is he's a bad guy and I know he's a bad guy, so I can just put it in there.
00:12:12.400Right. Like if you're if you're priors going into the story are this man is a terrible person, then any person, anybody who tells you that they have information that proves Donald Trump is a terrible person, you just kind of go ahead and assume that's true.
00:12:29.400No, it's you know, it's like a weekly world news who is as it has invested heavily in the idea that that bat bat child, the bat child is around and available for comment at any time on any given news event.
00:12:40.400Well, if someone comes and says, hey, by the way, the bat child just said X, Y and Z, you're going to believe it because your priors are you believe the bat child exists against all evidence.
00:13:07.120If you do that, you will go down roads in which you're issuing multi paragraph corrections about massive news stories that you blew.
00:13:14.940It's interesting, too, because both the New York Times and the Washington Post have always leaned left, but they just leaned left before.
00:13:24.860In previous decades, you could count on them for a little spin, a slant a certain way.
00:13:32.720Well, now they're just propaganda arms for the Democrat Party.
00:13:36.500That's they they've just wholeheartedly bought in to left wing propaganda.
00:13:43.280And so now they're just left wing propaganda.
00:13:45.540And so I think that colors everything that they do, including when the Washington Post misquotes the president, then the other outlets just pick it up and run with it.
00:14:20.660And I think this happens a lot more than we even know.
00:14:24.300That's terrifying because I feel like in this era, we do catch it more often, you know, with people always looking at everything and social media.
00:14:32.760And you can find these things and check them out.
00:14:34.940And we do, I think, catch more of them these days.
00:14:37.360But there's more of them happening, too.
00:14:39.220You know, we talked about this with with the Chris Cuomo situation, I think, a little bit yesterday.
00:14:43.780And that I think there really was a time in which CNN would come out and say, OK, we blew this one.
00:14:52.740You know, like we shouldn't have had the brother of the governor doing a slapstick comedy in the middle of the pandemic.
00:15:30.060Hopefully you're the type of person who when you say something and, you know, it's not kind of true, you kind of feel that internal sort of struggle a little bit.
00:16:02.660So when he says things that are complete lies that cost the lives of thousands of people, there's nothing in him that says, gee, I shouldn't say this.
00:16:50.580And I think the same thing is happening with some of these media sources now.
00:16:53.400Now, they never felt the need to have that internal debate about Donald Trump because they just all assumed he was Satan times Hitler multiplied by Idi Amin.
00:17:07.640And they were just like, okay, that's the guy.
00:17:31.360It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
00:17:32.960I want to paint you a picture of peace of mind.
00:17:37.640If you're planning to buy or sell a home in the near future or both, this is especially for you.
00:17:42.560Your real estate agent comes to the door, comes in, sits down with you.
00:17:45.940You talk for a little bit about the house, what your goals are, what's realistic and what's not, all of that.
00:17:51.140Then he pulls out his phone and a piece of paper and proceeds to pull up the names of every single person you're going to need to get the job done and get the job done right and writes them all down for you.
00:17:59.780And you realize, not for the last time in this process, that you didn't just need a real estate agent.
00:18:06.640You needed someone who's going to walk you through this entire process from beginning to end and make sure it goes the best way possible for you.
00:18:13.880That's what Glenn envisioned when he started realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:18:17.580It's what realestateagentsitrust.com delivers every day.
00:20:21.160And what they're trying to do here, they're trying to walk this line where they had multiple senators promised they would never, ever, never, never, ever, ever, ever, Pat, get rid of this filibuster.
00:20:59.440And Kyrsten Sinema, who, I mean, you want to talk about super right-wing Kyrsten Sinema, who really has, actually, I will say that her coming into office, looking at her past, she really had some really far-left views.
00:21:18.700So far, she's been just normal left in the Joe Manchin category, which, by the way, used to be a liberal.
00:21:26.160I mean, there was a time in which Joe Manchin would be considered, you know, towards the left of the Democratic Party.
00:22:36.100So the IRS just issued an urgent warning about a new scam to steal the electronic filing identification numbers from tax professionals over email.
00:22:46.020Once they've done that, they can use your information to file fraudulent tax returns.
00:22:50.140Now, obviously, tax professionals should be aware of the latest phishing scams out there.
00:22:54.140But you need to be prepared and be aware as well because your person might not catch it before it's too late.
00:23:00.700It's important to understand how cyber crime and identity theft are affecting our lives.
00:23:04.520Every day we put our information at risk on the internet and you never know from one day to the next when it's going to be the time that your identity is stolen.
00:25:40.320That's exciting to corporations who will really want to stay here now.
00:25:44.620The one thing that's interesting about that is every single study they do about the corporate tax grade is they find that that just gets passed to you.
00:46:29.900And you might just flip it on when you're getting ready for bed or you have a couple minutes open.
00:46:35.140You're just maybe you're, you know, doing like when I'm doing bills sometimes, I will just throw on, you know, some TV show that I've watched before.
00:46:43.040So I don't really need to pay attention to it.
00:46:55.640So it's, you know, it's sort of a edgy comedy if you've never seen it before.
00:46:59.700And they go down a lot of they push the envelope on certain on certain issues throughout.
00:47:06.200And it's been interesting to watch it because I've been watching it from the beginning, you know, one episode of, you know, every day or two.
00:47:13.180And the change you kind of notice in that the really early seasons, they say all sorts of crap that I cannot believe they get away with.
00:47:21.740Right. Like it just they just go so far in every episode and you kind of notice the transition a little bit.
00:47:30.080And it seemed like maybe they were getting a little softer as it went on in the seasons.
00:47:34.520They wouldn't push the envelope quite as much as it went on, which you kind of it would expect.
00:47:38.940But yesterday I'm watching it was season eight, episode one.
00:51:09.100You know, Donald McNeil, who was the lead star reporter for the New York Times on COVID-19 from the beginning of the pandemic.
00:51:17.680He's a guy who's, you know, I didn't agree with everything he said, but he was the guy who said it was going to be a big deal in January and February.
00:51:24.480Like, he was one of these guys who was making a big deal about it.
00:51:26.780He's been covering infectious diseases across the world for 40 years for the New York Times.
00:51:31.360I mean, this is like their legendary guy.
00:51:33.500And he was just fired because he was on a trip with a bunch of students who asked him a question about whether it was OK to use the N word in a certain circumstance.
00:51:45.240He tried to clarify what the circumstance was.
00:51:47.720Like, are you talking about like someone saying it as a racial slur or someone like quoting someone?
00:51:52.720And at some point in his his search for an explanation, he said the word out loud.
00:51:58.000And that, of course, was enough for him to be fired because of all the woke staff all over the place, you know, and it's funny because I'm watching season eight episode one of if it's always sunny in Philadelphia, which.
00:52:15.860How this one gets through and how the other episodes around it get banned because of blackface, which are not there's not a lot of, you know, it's more of them being idiots thinking they could get away with blackface.
00:53:58.360It's not streaming because there's a scene where Betty White and and Rue McClanahan introduce themselves to a black character while wearing a mud mask that is mistaken for blackface.
00:54:08.420That sounds like an incredible half hour of television.
00:54:55.860In my opinion, the best one ever made.
00:54:57.940And they Netflix did one season of sort of a revival, which they called With Bob and David.
00:55:01.860But in the two is 2015 in this episode, David Cross, who is super liberal, like I probably the most liberal person in our society, the single most liberal person in our society.
00:55:13.340He dresses up and at one point he's doing a thing where he's trying.
00:55:20.180He's like, you know, these YouTube videos where you're like, I'm going to show you what your rights are as a citizen.
00:55:28.680When you get pulled over on the side of the road, he's filming himself.
00:55:31.160He's trying to do his own like a little viral video and he's trying to make the point at one point in the sketch that if he puts on blackface, he will automatically get arrested because he's black.
00:55:41.400And he does like that's, you know, it's I mean, it's a fun it's, you know, summarizing here, obviously, but it's a very funny sketch.
00:55:48.380But they've removed it from the show because he was wearing blackface in an effort to say the liberal point that what that white cops will just arrest black people for no reason.
00:56:01.820He's actually making the liberal point and they still pull it off.
00:56:07.020We talked about Sarah Silverman yesterday.
00:56:09.060She lost a job because of a sketch she did in blackface.
00:56:12.260Um, they did move, uh, Scrubs has lost three episodes of their show from the streaming services.
00:56:20.460The Office has lost an episode, which I don't, I don't remember an Office blackface scene, but there is a lot that is, uh, that is offensive in that show.
00:57:09.600You don't have to have that as part, it doesn't have, the weather outside does not have to control your grilling capacity.
00:57:15.440Uh, you don't need to worry about, uh, all of these, uh, advancements in science that can protect your grilling abilities because Rectech's got them all done for you.
00:57:25.200Uh, they grill, they smoke, they even bake.
00:57:29.660And it adjusts its own temperature to make sure you're getting the perfect cook every single time.
00:57:34.120You control it from an app on your phone or device, which is great if it's really hot in the summer, like it's going to be down here in a few weeks in Texas.
00:57:41.360You can just be inside controlling the thing.
00:57:43.940If you're getting a cold burst up in the Northeast, you can do it that way as well.
00:57:47.580You control it from an app on your phone or device.
01:01:26.040It's funny because, you know, there's no way to remember the mistakes you've made in history if you erase them.
01:01:33.340People will stumble their way back into this nonsense if you don't show them, hey, this was wrong.
01:01:41.120I mean, that's the whole concept behind, like, never forget, right?
01:01:44.960Because people have this way about them where they, every so often, they decide they're going to, you know, commit genocide on a group of people.
01:02:04.500So, when you have things that are offensive, if you think that they were offensive in the past, just simply deleting them does not help the situation.
01:02:11.240The other thing about never forget, and that used to be the battle cry, never forget.
01:02:17.160So, if I can't bring it up, if I can't warn you about Nazism and the way things started back then, how am I not going to, how am I going to remember?
01:02:52.680It doesn't help anybody to get rid of this stuff.
01:02:55.240You know, like you should be able to, you know, you've probably gone through this, Pat, where you watch something that you really loved when you were a kid.
01:03:02.860First of all, you never pick up all the jokes and references that they're making.
01:03:07.740And every once in a while, you'll see something and be like, whoa, I don't remember that being in here.
01:03:13.040But that's a good reminder of if you think it's something that was, you know, was wrong or you've rethought it, it kind of reminds you that, okay, we're moving in the right direction.
01:03:22.820I mean, these are obviously good advances in so many ways, but they just want to delete it all.
01:18:42.220Look, if you happen to be in Dallas and there was a police officer who did something wrong in Minnesota, it's justifiable to go beat up some random people on the streets, burn the thing to the ground, and murder far more people.
01:18:55.200I think it's 25 is the last estimate I saw, 25 people dead in those riots.
01:19:08.200And caused more damage, caused more death.
01:19:10.980Did, you know, hit the country much more widely than January 6th did.
01:19:17.220And not to mention, it's, you know, the plethora of things that we could talk about when we're talking about violence and vandalism on the left could end, we could end the show with it.
01:19:27.380We could keep going and going and going all day.
