Summary
A school shooting may have been averted, and it shows everything wrong, everything wrong with the FBI, the Broward County Sheriff's Office, and the South Florida School System. In fact, I hope somebody from those agencies is listening right now because this is an example of concerned citizens doing their part, real cops doing real police work. And it shows what is possible when all of the above come together.

The Blaze Radio Network, on demand, love, courage, truth, Glenn Beck.

A school shooting may have been averted, and it shows everything wrong, everything wrong
00:00:24.440
with the FBI, the Broward County Sheriff's Office, and the Broward County School System.
00:00:29.300
In fact, I hope somebody from those agencies is listening right now, because this is an
00:00:35.340
example of concerned citizens doing their part, real cops doing real police work, and
00:00:43.420
it shows what is possible when all of the above come together.
00:00:48.000
New England Patriots receiver Julian Endelman was hanging out with his teammates in Texas
00:00:55.780
He got a disturbing direct message on his Instagram account.
00:00:59.860
It read, dude, there's a kid in your comment section that says he's going to shoot up a
00:01:07.800
So he immediately contacted his assistant back in Boston and asked her to look into it.
00:01:14.840
He's one of the most popular wide receivers in the NFL.
00:01:17.780
Finding one comment out of the thousands on her boss's Instagram would be like finding
00:01:23.360
a needle in a stack, you know, or, yeah, a needle in a stack of, well, needles or haystack.
00:01:48.580
If this were the scenario, this is where it all would have stopped.
00:01:53.100
In fact, it's pretty close to what the circumstances were.
00:01:57.140
In fact, Parkland had much more to go on than this.
00:02:01.640
The Parkland killer left a near identical message on YouTube, but the FBI proceeded to drop the
00:02:13.040
So the Boston PD assigned two detectives to look into the Instagram comment.
00:02:19.060
They immediately made an emergency records request to determine if the user's email and
00:02:24.480
IP address were there and available, and they used that information to trace his location
00:02:32.300
The Boston detectives then contacted the police in Michigan, who went right straight to the
00:02:41.960
It is there that they found a 14-year-old boy in possession of two rifles.
00:02:48.700
The boy eventually confessed to making the threat and admitted that his anger was directed
00:02:56.500
He has now been charged with a felony and is sitting in a juvenile detention center.
00:03:06.320
This story has all of the answers we're looking for.
00:03:17.280
Extremely competent law enforcement officers following procedure by the book.
00:03:22.900
We don't need more gun legislation and red tape.
00:03:25.760
We already have the laws and the procedures in place to protect us.
00:03:29.580
We need those people who are involved in the process to actually follow the book.
00:03:37.980
If they were followed every time like this, we'd have far less tragedy.
00:03:56.520
So there's a couple of things that I want to start out with.
00:04:03.340
We also have a filmmaker on who made a new documentary called The Swamp
00:04:08.740
that really kind of shows you exactly what's happening in Washington, D.C.
00:04:19.580
And a few other things that are important that we discussed today.
00:04:23.560
But I want to start with the 1,500 Central Americans
00:04:29.600
Yesterday, on television, I mapped out on the chalkboard
00:04:38.740
So here's a group that is called Pueblos Sin Fronteras.
00:04:46.080
Translated into English, that means towns or people without frontiers.
00:04:53.580
Really kind of important to know that it's an open society in just a minute.
00:04:59.680
But the Wall Street Journal had been covering this caravan
00:05:02.580
who now says they're not going to go all the way to the border
00:05:14.600
Now, last night I showed you video of this group of 1,500 Guatemalans
00:05:25.480
What was missing in that video was anyone from the border guard.
00:05:34.480
Now, since when does Mexico not have southern border guards?
00:05:39.480
Since when do they have a gate, but they just leave it open for anybody to come through?
00:05:43.920
That was either the government saying, yeah, okay, just leave your post there for a while,
00:05:53.840
Either way, this group has pulled off all kinds of stuff that, you know,
00:06:00.180
a little group from Guatemala doesn't have the money to do.
00:06:03.380
For instance, every town they go to, the towns are saying, you know what?
00:06:09.280
We want to bus these 1,500 people to your next stop.
00:06:19.540
These little teeny towns in Mexico are hiring buses to take 1,500 people to the next stop?
00:06:33.500
They really are the good Samaritan, aren't they, Stu?
00:06:38.880
Just a bunch of nice people doing nice things for each other.
00:06:43.780
And, well, and the border guards that apparently had to go pee-pee in the potty.
00:06:58.580
And that's why 1,500 people came across the border.
00:07:03.960
Anyway, so they have all of these buses taking them to the next stop.
00:07:08.780
Well, last night I showed you the face of Alec Mensing.
00:07:14.900
Now, Alec Mensing is the guy who is organizing all of this.
00:07:20.520
He's the guy on videotape that is seen yelling instructions over a loudspeaker.
00:07:31.740
So, Alec, on his LinkedIn page, he lists his focus as immigration justice, writing, and odd jobs.
00:07:43.680
Now, he's based in Texas, and he has an odd job.
00:07:47.780
He's the on-the-ground coordinator for a group called CARA.
00:07:52.240
CARA is an umbrella group that focuses on providing services to illegal immigrants.
00:07:57.940
Now, the largest groups in CARA is the Catholic Legal Immigration Network and the American Immigration Council.
00:08:07.040
Both groups are prominent players in the Open Borders lobby.
00:08:20.580
Now, George Soros, an avowed atheist, has been supporting Catholic groups for years.
00:08:29.060
We came up and showed you last night the IRS tax records so we could prove to you that George Soros was funding these people.
00:08:37.980
So, in 2015, let's see, he gave, I'm sorry, in 2009, he gave over half a million dollars to the Catholic Legal Immigration Network.
00:08:55.740
And that same year, the American Immigration Council was given $350,000.
00:09:04.800
This grassroots, this nobodies from Guatemala that happened to be given bus rides all the way across Mexico
00:09:12.660
and literally an open border with nobody checking them.
00:09:19.240
They happen to have the guy from America who runs CARA, who is funded by these Catholic and international illegal immigrant organizations,
00:09:42.040
We found some other names involved that we'll share tonight.
00:09:53.180
And I think they've turned around because Donald Trump is going to weaponize and put the military at our border.
00:10:04.240
Now, I personally believe that these people here in America knew exactly what they were doing.
00:10:13.700
I'm not sure that the Guatemalans were ready for this.
00:10:18.040
I want to remind you of a story that we told, and very few people were told this on television
00:10:29.620
because of the anti-Israel sentiment that is in so much of the media.
00:10:38.560
Do you remember doing those stories, Stu, on the flotilla?
00:10:44.600
That was a good year of our lives, I felt like.
00:10:51.640
What was everyone else saying about the flotilla?
00:10:55.300
Oh, it was a ragtag group of wonderful people who had just been crushed by Israel and their terrible policies.
00:11:06.960
There was just nothing they could do but get on this boat and hope that the evil Jews would not crack down on them violently once they got there.
00:11:16.620
So they just got on this leaky boat and just didn't know what to do.
00:11:22.980
Unfortunately for them, the Israelis had cameras.
00:11:30.720
And if you remember, the Israelis came out to confront the boat because they couldn't allow the boat in to dock.
00:11:37.440
And so they came out to confront the boat and they started the the Palestinians started a fight and a riot.
00:11:49.560
And as we showed the video, we also did a little homework on who was behind this ragtag group of just immigrants.
00:11:57.740
It was Bernadine Dorn, you know, Bill O'erre's wife.
00:12:01.720
It was it was it was code pink that was behind this.
00:12:11.380
Because the idea is make Israel look like a bully.
00:12:17.020
Anything you can do to make them look like a bully.
00:12:21.320
Now, I don't know if this caravan is actually going to turn around.
00:12:26.860
But I will tell you now that there is going to be a caravan like this that is going to come to our border and they are going to use the same exact leftist strategy on the border of the United States as they were using with the flotilla in Israel.
00:13:10.020
You see that Chip and Joanna, their last episode aired this week.
00:13:26.500
They've revitalized the city and now they're moving on.
00:13:29.880
And they stay true to themselves, at least it seems, you know, really nice.
00:13:36.420
I'll assume we'll find out that they're actually serial killers in a couple of years.

00:15:18.860
Still, I'm going through the, do you remember the, we don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows?
00:15:30.800
And that's of the terrorist group from back in the day with Bill Ayers.
00:15:37.860
And, um, because of, of, uh, who was it in the, in Congress that, um, came out and said,
00:15:45.980
Oh, you know, I was a black Panther and they were good people.
00:15:53.020
Uh, and she came out this week and, and it shows where the left, uh, I'm sorry, where
00:15:58.880
the Democrats really are because there was no Democrat that came out and said, Hey, the
00:16:08.920
As far as I know, um, no Democrat asked to answer for that.
00:16:16.920
No Democrat asked to denounce her for saying those things.
00:16:23.260
You, you imagine that you imagine if somebody got up and said, Oh, you know, the Klan, they
00:16:34.300
So, uh, between that and the, the, what's happening on our college campuses and this,
00:16:47.720
This Christian, uh, privilege thing that's just happened.
00:16:51.240
I've been, I've been looking at, I've been looking at all of this and I, and I thought
00:16:56.380
earlier this week, why, why would you take on whites?
00:17:02.360
White males and now Christians who not a lot of people left in the United States after
00:17:18.000
So you're at 80% of the population, 85% of the population.
00:17:23.200
How are you expecting to win elections by embracing terrorists, by embracing really bad
00:17:30.280
people, uh, and by cobbling together this coalition and you're going against whites and
00:17:47.820
I want to get into that a little later with Hillary.
00:17:51.420
But as I was thinking about it, Stu, and, uh, I'd love to hear your, your initial thoughts
00:17:57.580
I'm going to present something probably better next week when I'm, when I'm going after I've
00:18:02.600
But I think the radicals, we know that they went into education, right?
00:18:11.600
Um, uh, one of the women that, uh, that Rollins was talking about from the Black Panthers is
00:18:20.880
The universities are the radical laundromat, right?
00:18:23.760
Like they go there, they get cleaned up, they become professionals that are teaching
00:18:27.980
our children after, you know, sure they may have been bombing things in the past, but
00:18:34.340
So do you remember that Bill Ayers in the Weather Underground said they're going to have
00:18:38.260
to kill 25 million people, they'll put them in indoctrination camps.
00:18:43.440
And in the end, they may have to kill 25 million people to get this done.
00:18:48.380
There's a documentary that talks about meeting as someone who was an FBI agent, right?
00:18:52.220
That went inside of the Weather Underground and recounted that conversation.
00:18:56.620
So instead of indoctrinating people before the revolution, why not try to do it to weaken
00:19:07.620
your enemy and do it before the revolution, before there's a match lit so you can get a
00:19:16.740
lot of white people, a lot of white kids on your side?
00:19:21.480
Why not, why not get the kids so confused that they'll at least not put up a fight?
00:19:29.980
And if, so I started thinking that yesterday and I started looking up the Weather Underground
00:19:36.040
and remember their whole idea was to cobble together everyone they could that was disenfranchised,
00:19:45.140
but the main group they were looking for, they wanted Hispanics, they wanted blacks, but the
00:19:56.100
And they talked about a youth movement and how important these youth movements were.
00:20:12.820
I think we're seeing the Weather Underground playbook being played out right now, just in
00:20:43.000
It is a documentary called The Swamp, and it's a series and it's going to come out every
00:20:49.120
Here is just a taste of what The Swamp is all about.
00:20:52.800
I'd heard about people losing their seats on committees as a result of not voting the right
00:21:08.160
And I often said, if it were a company, I'd have quit.
00:21:28.700
As soon as you want something, you now become part of The Swamp.
00:21:38.120
The creator and executive producer is Matt Whitworth, and he joins us now.
00:21:46.300
So you started working on this, and everyone said you were crazy, including the Freedom
00:21:53.520
Freedom Caucus leadership as well told the four members that we have that they were crazy to
00:21:57.800
do this show, because these guys ended up signing a film participation release where they have
00:22:05.980
They took a huge risk in allowing us total access to them.
00:22:11.560
We filmed them running over to the Capitol for votes.
00:22:18.740
But it took us about six months to get through House Ethics Committee and Office of General Counsel,
00:22:23.360
all of these House agencies that we had to go through, for these guys to sign this film
00:22:28.060
participation release and to participate in their official capacity as a congressman.
00:22:34.100
So we have Dave Bratt, Tom Garrett from Virginia, Rod Blum from Iowa, and Ken Buck from Colorado.
00:22:42.300
The first day we were filming with Ken Buck, and I said, you know, tell me just about the
00:22:48.660
And he smirks and he goes, the legislative process in D.C. is leadership writes the bill.
00:22:52.500
They leak it to lobbyists on K Street, the lobbyists leak it to Politico, and then we read about
00:23:04.220
I mean, you know, in the Senate, I'll hear from people in the House and the Senate that
00:23:15.120
It's Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, the turtle and Paul Ryan.
00:23:27.100
We actually reached out to Democratic offices in the very beginning because I thought, you
00:23:30.900
know, even though we have policy differences, there's people on the other side of the aisle
00:23:34.020
who want to see some of these sort of structural reforms in D.C.
00:23:36.860
And none of them were willing to speak on camera because it's much worse on the other side of
00:23:42.880
But that's the big theme that you hear from all of these guys is the top down nature of
00:23:48.680
And then you really hear about, you know, the retaliatory actions where if these guys don't
00:23:54.880
So, you know, Ken Buck has told stories about people losing committee chairmanships or getting
00:23:59.820
kicked off of committees for not voting the right way.
00:24:02.140
There's been members who during the August recess have had foreign trips canceled the
00:24:07.160
night before they would do to fly out of the country by leadership for not voting the right
00:24:11.740
But there's one clip in the trailer where I can't remember which congressman it is, but
00:24:18.160
Like, because they come to them and they say, you're going to lose your privileges.
00:24:21.340
You're going to you're not going to be able to you're not going to be looked upon kindly
00:24:27.220
And I think a lot of times we forget that these guys are accomplished people in their own
00:24:31.460
right a lot of times, especially with the Tea Party sort of movement that came in.
00:24:34.960
It was a lot of people who are already successful at business, you know, economists and things
00:24:39.560
of the doctors and things like this who just got into the to the the politics game at that
00:24:45.520
point because they believe something was wrong with the country.
00:24:47.960
And then they get beat up by sort of the swamp, as you're talking about, and they get pushed
00:24:51.720
into these areas that it doesn't make them feel comfortable.
00:24:54.080
This hasn't been their entire life hasn't been following.
00:24:57.720
I mean, I really wasn't sure how forthcoming these guys were going to be.
00:25:02.400
And remember, the only person I knew before we started this process was Dave Bratt.
00:25:06.340
So I was cold calling offices, looking at dozens of interviews, YouTube interviews of
00:25:10.240
these guys, trying to find people who I thought would be really candid and forthcoming.
00:25:15.040
The first meeting that we had with Ken Buck, a congressman from Colorado, we went into his
00:25:18.920
office and his staff had briefed him on sort of what we wanted to do for the series.
00:25:22.840
And we sat down and Ken goes, I'm so glad you're doing this.
00:25:27.360
So that's when I turned to one of my video guys and I said, I think this is going to
00:25:35.380
They had no idea, you know, the direction of the series.
00:25:42.300
I don't know anybody who, I mean, that's, I want to impress upon the audience how risky
00:25:48.800
that is to have a filmmaker come in and say, you know, you don't have anything to say about
00:25:53.760
it and we can film whatever we want and you don't have final say on the edit.
00:26:01.060
If I don't know you, you could edit it any way you wanted and make me look any way you
00:26:13.600
And there were members, other Freedom Caucus members who told these guys, you're crazy
00:26:18.260
And Rod Blum, the congressman from Iowa, told me one point, we were setting up the cameras
00:26:24.340
And he said, you know, I view this as if I say something stupid and you guys end up using
00:26:31.020
He said, but I'm so frustrated with this system.
00:26:33.380
And he goes, if this can play any small part in shining a light on it, he said, I'm willing
00:26:40.300
What, what is the, what's the biggest thing that you think people are going to take away
00:26:46.640
I think one of the biggest things is, um, it's exactly what you talked about.
00:26:50.280
The leadership of both parties are in cahoots with one another.
00:26:54.060
So, um, uh, one of these guys told the story, um, uh, about if you want to be on the, uh,
00:27:02.120
So if you want to be the chairman of an eight committee, like financial services, you have
00:27:09.040
So it's not about your knowledge or your experience.
00:27:16.360
This apparently started on the democratic side of the aisle where in the D triple C, there's
00:27:20.960
a list of all of the members and what they have to kick up and who's behind on kicking
00:27:27.840
And apparently Paul Ryan heard about that and was like, wow, that's a great idea.
00:27:35.140
And Ken Buck showed us the picture of this list.
00:27:37.220
So you're going to see these guys strategizing behind closed doors.
00:27:40.460
You're going to see, you know, see them having staff meetings, trying to figure out, you know,
00:27:44.140
how are we going to, you know, block this piece of legislation?
00:27:48.220
Um, and if we get into things like, you know, if there's a new speaker, um, of the house
00:27:51.880
sometime this summer or before the election, you're going to see all of that play out as
00:27:55.600
Did you go through this and see, because I mean, there's structural problems and that's
00:28:02.800
It's about the structural problem in Washington.
00:28:05.500
Did you come through it and at the end say, okay, here are, here are concrete things that
00:28:10.500
we could do that could actually solve these problems.
00:28:13.760
And actually that's one of the reasons these guys are so frustrated.
00:28:17.080
Um, Rod Blum from Iowa introduced three, what he called drain the swamp bills this past
00:28:23.320
One is no first class air travel for members of Congress.
00:28:30.280
And, uh, he was like, I'm going to submit these bills, but I know they're not going anywhere.
00:28:44.120
We put together, we filmed with these guys a single day in the fall to, to put together a
00:28:50.720
And we went out and pitched Netflix and Hulu and Amazon and probably about a dozen major
00:28:56.620
And, uh, all of them were blown away by the footage.
00:28:59.180
Several of the networks said, you know, we've tried to do similar shows, but we weren't able
00:29:02.640
to get past ethics committee or some of these other groups.
00:29:05.240
Uh, so they were impressed that we were able to, but I think we sort of hit that, uh, insurmountable,
00:29:10.520
you know, political bias of they didn't want to put four house freedom caucus members
00:29:15.220
and give them a platform, um, you know, for, for them to sort of, you know, share their
00:29:20.080
We were sitting with an executive at a major network and I was talking about this, you
00:29:27.320
And, uh, I mentioned that we have four members of the house freedom caucus and he rolls his
00:29:31.540
And then we showed him the footage and he goes, wow, I wanted to hate these guys, but
00:29:38.320
So at the time I was really naive and I was like, man, this is great for our chances of
00:29:43.380
Uh, but hindsight being 2020, I don't think there was any way that they were going to put
00:29:49.420
Next time you do this and you have original stuff, bring it to me.
00:30:02.780
So what you see in episode one, uh, is a sort of just introducing these characters, um, you
00:30:08.840
I think that's a sort of a surprising aspect of the show.
00:30:12.040
It's, you know, what are some of these big issues plaguing DC?
00:30:16.000
And then it's also turned into this, you know, sort of Mr. Smith goes to Washington, you
00:30:21.100
So all of these guys are in their first and second term.
00:30:23.460
So you get to see, you know, what were their expectations coming into Congress versus
00:30:27.500
you know, running into this wall of, of basically being quarantined and put in a box by leadership.
00:30:32.920
So you now have these guys, have you heard and have the Freedom Caucus, have others seen
00:30:41.740
So we've heard, uh, we've heard sort of mixed things.
00:30:44.340
Uh, there are other members who have really liked the footage that they've seen so far,
00:30:48.420
but we sort of ran into that even before we released the first episode.
00:30:52.700
Um, like I said, there were several Freedom Caucus guys who, you know, told our four members,
00:30:57.820
But we filmed, I think with Rod Blum walking over to the Capitol.
00:31:00.880
So we have our, you know, film crew surrounding him and all the other members started peacocking
00:31:04.840
and they're like, why does Rod Blum get a television crew?
00:31:07.880
And they're coming up and slapping them on the back, you know, Hey Rod, what's going on?
00:31:18.780
Um, you can find it at facebook.com slash the swamp really, really worth watching.
00:31:25.620
And also congratulations, uh, to, uh, Dave Bratt, Tom Garrett, Rod Blum, and, uh, Ken Buck
00:31:32.840
for having the courage to go on record and say these things.
00:31:37.000
There are a lot of people in Washington that are good.
00:31:41.860
It's, I mean, it's, it's, it's hard to find them, but they're, they are there that want
00:31:47.480
an end to this, but they, they don't have the balls to do it.
00:31:51.160
And these four men did and, and, and good job, Matt.
00:32:04.960
So you can see it facebook.com slash the swamp.
00:32:07.680
There's going to be a new episodes every couple of weeks.
00:32:12.000
Uh, Matt is on Twitter at Matt, Matt, Matt Whitworth.
00:32:20.400
There's some other evil Matt Whitworth out there who stole your name.
00:32:23.320
A guy in British, uh, in Britain who I've tried to get it from.
00:32:27.640
Uh, have you ever taken your car in for an oil change?
00:32:30.400
The mechanic finds something wrong and you're like, Hey, surprise.
00:32:43.760
we could just, we could just reach into the fuse box and pull that fuse.
00:32:53.900
Cause you have absolutely no idea what's happening.
00:32:56.500
And if you are out of warranty, your car breaks down, you could be out of pocket for thousands of dollars.
00:33:03.100
This just happened to me with one of my truck, with one of my trucks.
00:33:06.800
I have a couple of old trucks that don't have warranty anymore.
00:33:10.420
It's a 2000, I don't remember 2008 and 2012, I think.
00:33:22.740
Would it cost me about four grand cost me nothing because I have car shield car shield.

My name is David Hogg and I'm not from Parkland, Florida.
00:34:23.640
I first found out about the other David Hogg from my grandfather.
00:34:29.040
and asked my parents to turn on the TV because there was a David Hogg who looked
00:34:38.440
We were all saddened by the events in Parkland and found the coincidence of
00:34:43.580
but then it turned into something we didn't expect.
00:34:46.480
My mom and I started getting hate messages through social media because people
00:35:00.220
made fun of our looks and our last name and said many other hateful and crude
00:35:05.220
We contacted them one by one to prove that we were a different family.
00:35:10.460
Some just thought it was part of a conspiracy theory.
00:35:13.560
Some kept things going and it kept snowballing.
00:35:17.380
My younger brother was asked at school if that was his elder brother on TV.
00:35:22.540
One of my professors in the middle of a lecture asked if I was the David Hogg from
00:35:31.360
I decided it was time to tell my story and where I stand on the subject,
00:35:38.840
an article in the Wall Street Journal and op-ed.
00:35:49.400
I wish that nothing like this would ever happen again.
00:35:53.480
I believe in protecting everyone's constitutional rights and liberties,
00:35:57.020
and I feel that the Second Amendment is important.
00:36:00.420
I believe that gun education needs to be improved for buyers and gun safety
00:36:12.820
you should be educated on the basics of firearms and what to do in different
00:36:19.820
an obvious improvement would be have more trained armed security officers at
00:36:28.580
Many schools have all doors locked to outsiders.
00:36:34.340
The answer is not to take away guns from law-abiding citizens,
00:36:38.360
because that wouldn't result in less protection.
00:36:54.440
The law tries to prevent incidents and punishes offenders when crimes occur,
00:37:02.140
And it is unjust to punish the majority of law-abiding citizens based on the actions of a few criminals.
00:37:10.200
He then goes on to talk about how David Hogg needs to listen more and talk less,
00:37:39.080
President Trump is sending the National Guard to the border because he's going to wage war on immigrants.
00:37:48.360
People who are coming here illegally should be stopped.
00:37:53.880
But this is the impression you get from most mainstream media coverage this week.
00:37:57.760
Any time the word Trump comes up, they go crazy.
00:38:02.540
Any time the words Trump and troops are uttered close together,
00:38:06.500
the bosses at CNN and the New York Times break into a cold sweat.
00:38:13.460
Yesterday, the Department of Homeland Security announced President Trump will sign a proclamation
00:38:17.540
to deploy the National Guard along the U.S. border.
00:38:22.520
The number of troops involved and for how long is yet to be determined.
00:38:26.020
The National Guard is going to serve, quote, as an immediate deterrent, end quote, to illegal
00:38:32.180
immigration by supporting U.S. Customs and Border Patrol protection and personnel.
00:38:39.380
Now, one Homeland Security official made it clear that the National Guard troops will not
00:38:43.800
make physical contact with any illegal aliens at the border.
00:38:48.880
Federal law prohibits the military from civil law enforcement, including immigration law.
00:38:54.300
They will primarily assist custom and border protection with air surveillance and camera
00:39:00.380
In other words, the kind of stuff a lot of Americans think we are doing or we should be doing instead
00:39:06.660
of wasting all of this time talking about a wall.
00:39:11.660
Both the Texas governor, Greg Abbott, and Arizona governor, Doug Ducey, applauded the president's
00:39:19.780
decision yesterday, saying they welcome the support.
00:39:23.160
California governor, Jerry Brown, on the other hand, has not commented, even though his state
00:39:28.320
needs all the federal help it can get his hands on.
00:39:30.640
Do you know that they have issued a million driver's license to undocumented aliens?
00:39:36.380
Still, it's a pretty irrational thing for the president to do, right?
00:39:45.260
Well, you know, a couple of presidents have done it.
00:39:58.100
I don't know, anything probably other than the troops amassing on the border.
00:40:05.440
He sent the National Guard troops to Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California.
00:40:10.520
Oh, oh, but then let's recall the bloodshed of 2010.
00:40:16.980
Do you remember the wars on the border when President Obama sent the troops in 2010,
00:40:26.060
Both operations provided surveillance, arrest, and drug bust support for a combined cost of
00:40:35.180
So, major border operations in 2006, 2010, and now 2018.
00:40:58.800
What is it about those three years that just keeps sticking out?
00:41:02.800
Seems like it's the first election, congressional election of a presidency.
00:41:29.820
Well, welcome to our happy-go-lucky friend, little Billy O'Reilly from down the street.
00:41:47.480
What's Ham Hands, the guy with the bananas for the fingers?
00:42:02.700
Have you seen his vacation houses in Hawaii and everything else?
00:42:07.520
Look, Tony, if he earned it, that's fine with me.
00:42:12.420
Who was the first human being in the media to call for the guard on the border?
00:42:29.820
Right after 9-11, we put out exactly the same plan, and I'm sure that Donald Trump remembers
00:42:45.720
Because after 9-11, we obviously had security concerns about terrorists infiltrating into
00:42:52.440
the United States, and everyone knows that the easiest way to get here is to come across
00:43:03.580
Let's put the guard down there and back up the border patrol and stop not only terrorists
00:43:11.980
coming here, but also millions of illegal aliens who had been coming here since Ronald Reagan's
00:43:19.560
So the posse comitatus people went out of the woodwork.
00:43:24.640
Oh, you can't use the military to enforce the law civilly.
00:43:29.120
If it's a national security problem, you can use the National Guard and the military to
00:43:37.820
You've seen it in other national security crises that if the president or a sitting governor
00:43:45.320
wants more security, they can call the military to provide it.
00:43:49.120
So the question then becomes, who would oppose this, Beck?
00:43:53.840
And I want you and Stu, who would oppose better security at the southern border to stop drugs
00:44:08.360
I would imagine that the Democrats would oppose that for votes.
00:44:14.780
And for instability and chaos and Republicans would also would like to have the the jobs.
00:44:27.280
Well, OK, but there is an emotional reason that the Democratic Party, not everybody in
00:44:42.760
If you don't want the border secure, you essentially are saying, you know, we're OK with 12 million
00:44:52.920
He doesn't have a problem with 12 million people here illegally.
00:44:55.940
He doesn't have one problem in the world with it.
00:45:05.440
So just the National Guard's presence at the border, just the fact that they're there,
00:45:09.820
the trucks and the guys, that's going to give the cartel pause.
00:45:16.420
So anybody who's listening to to Bill here, I want to play a shootout from the cartel and
00:45:23.200
the Mexican army on our border, just across our border.
00:45:27.940
This is what is going on right now on our border.
00:45:32.040
If that doesn't sound like a war, you're out of your mind.
00:45:54.880
And that's what's happening right across our border.
00:46:09.520
Yeah, because Juarez is the murder capital of the world.
00:46:12.600
So we all know anybody who's fair minded and we all know that there's danger and that there's
00:46:18.840
15, 1500 March, which is now broken up because the Mexicans got scared that Trump would do
00:46:28.500
So the Mexican government stopped the 1500 March of migrants toward the U.S. border.
00:46:36.420
Nobody is going to put forth that Mexico is an under control country.
00:46:43.580
And so we have a national security problem, just like the Israelis had the problem with
00:46:58.140
About 50,000 people died in Mexico and a lot of them on the border.
00:47:01.180
By the way, that is across the border from Donna, Texas.
00:47:11.240
But the point of the matter is you've got to get to the root cause of the opposition in
00:47:20.980
This is good to protect Americans from danger, from drugs, from violence, from people who are
00:47:28.160
Now, that's not necessarily dangerous, but to Kate Steinle, it certainly was.
00:47:43.300
This is the root of the left's opposition to securing the border.
00:47:50.320
They don't want white people in charge of the country anymore.
00:47:55.120
So get as many minority people from as many places as you can to come into the United States
00:48:06.020
So may I take this idea of yours and expand in a different direction?
00:48:12.740
I'm not sure that that is really what the left is all about.
00:48:22.380
But I think, Bill, last night I went back and I read, you don't need a weatherman to know
00:48:28.400
which way the wind blows, which was the manifesto of the weather underground.
00:48:36.900
They're doing what they set out to do just in a different way.
00:48:40.020
That whole thing was to cobble together everyone you could to topple the United States government
00:48:49.820
And what they were talking about was anyone, anyone that can be used who has a grudge, who
00:48:59.060
we can who we can come in and make sure that we separate them from that power structure.
00:49:07.180
And if you read their manifesto, it's the same thing.
00:49:11.060
They are just going after those who believe in capitalism and the American, the typical
00:49:24.940
They're just they're just sowing the seeds of revolution.
00:49:30.520
I mean, you're basically saying to the American people, we oppose any kind of border security
00:49:42.540
because we feel that migrants should be treated with dignity.
00:49:48.400
democracy and we are a welcoming nation and we should let everybody in.
00:49:54.900
Right now, they're not going to say we should let everybody in, but they will say the other
00:50:03.300
But I'm telling you, if you read it, if you listen to the far left right now, it's all
00:50:10.220
about whiteness, white privilege, white supremacy.
00:50:18.200
And they brag of the census says that white Americans will be a minority soon.
00:50:27.920
Now, I don't care what anybody's skin color is.
00:50:31.660
And, you know, but if you've got a social engineer and that's what this is all about,
00:50:37.400
social engineering, and they'll take the narcotics.
00:50:40.680
They don't care about opioids or anything like that.
00:50:46.620
Did you ever hear one liberal Democrat stand up and say, we've got to fight these cartels
00:50:55.860
Bill O'Reilly, his his op ed today is the idiocy of whiteness.
00:51:02.100
And we'll get more of that and more on the news of the week with Bill O'Reilly in just
00:51:08.640
First, let me tell you about simply safe home security.
00:51:11.160
It's prepared for anything that gets thrown at it.
00:51:20.040
Say the intruder comes in and tries to destroy your keypad or your siren.
00:51:24.860
Simply safe will still get you the help you need.
00:51:26.760
Now, maybe it's overkill, but they don't think so.
00:51:34.700
It's always ready and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
00:51:38.780
Instead, they only charge what's fair and reasonable for 24 seven professional security
00:51:44.500
monitoring without a contract is $14 and 99 cents a month.
00:52:01.800

00:52:16.620
So, Bill O'Reilly, when I was at Fox and and we were going through boycotts, Fox was
00:52:27.380
actually leaking things to to bad, you know, the other side and and, you know, I think trying
00:52:39.000
It's, you know, the way they did their business at the time.
00:52:41.020
I found it really good news that they came out as strongly as they did for Laura Ingram.
00:52:47.500
It kind of surprised me and I was glad to see it.
00:52:52.280
Well, I think they had to they had to do it because of me.
00:53:03.340
So that this is the third, fourth one, because they tried it on Hannity, too.
00:53:07.040
Um, after that, uh, murder investigation thing.
00:53:11.900
So there were four, uh, Media Matters led investigations.
00:53:17.620
Unfortunately, uh, this kid, David Hogg, allowed Media Matters to manipulate him.
00:53:23.520
Um, and, uh, Media Matters used him to drive the sponsor boycott against Ingram.
00:53:30.560
So when you have four pretty big names, uh, Beck, O'Reilly, Hannity, Ingram, all being,
00:53:38.860
uh, attacked by Media Matters, I mean, the company had to, had to stand up and say, you
00:53:47.700
know, we're not going to throw Laura Ingram over the, over the side.
00:53:51.440
Um, because if it didn't, I mean, I, I, you know, their numbers are down anyway.
00:53:57.220
I don't know what the future would have been over there, but I was happy that they, they
00:54:02.120
protected Laura in the sense that this boycott thing is so un-American.
00:54:07.780
Do you kind of, do you, do you, do you kind of, in a way, feel bad for David Hogg?
00:54:13.260
He, he, he, you know, he was on the, uh, he was on TV the other day, though.
00:54:19.740
He, does he not, I mean, I feel bad for him if he doesn't know he's being used.
00:54:25.340
He knows, he knows, he's a absolute, on BillOReilly.com, we listed, we listed, all right, all of the
00:54:32.780
interactions back and forth, the timeline between Media Matters and David Hogg.
00:54:37.300
And I want to know where, where are Mr. Hogg's parents?
00:54:40.900
I mean, we don't have heard a word from them, but there's no doubt that Media Matters
00:54:47.980
coordinated with this teenager to attack Laura Ingram and try to ruin her career.
00:54:55.980
Because of the timeline, because Media Matters, if you look at the, right after Laura tweeted
00:55:03.700
about Mr. Hogg's college situation, which he had talked about on television, within hours,
00:55:11.900
all right, Media Matters was in compiling sponsors and then gave them to David Hogg, who then tweeted
00:55:20.340
them out. David Hogg has no capacity to find out Laura Ingram's sponsors. You know that,
00:55:26.760
all right? But Media Matters has all the Fox News sponsors, and they just funneled it over
00:55:33.360
to him and then used him as the spearhead for the boycott. And then, of course, the companies
00:55:39.880
panicked. You can't come up against the kid, a 17-year-old Parkland survivor. So it was a very
00:55:46.480
well, look, Media Matters, these are serious people. I mean, they are in business to ruin
00:55:53.980
all with whom they disagree politically. And they have a very well-organized machine,
00:56:03.260
and they know these boycotts work. So Fox News knows that. They know it. They've been through
00:56:10.740
it four times. And so they had to finally say, you know, we're not going to play into this.
00:56:18.540
Ben Shapiro said, you know, mutually assured destruction worked in the Cold War. You can't
00:56:26.900
just let somebody nuke your cities. And he made the point, we ought to turn about his fair play.
00:56:34.180
He went after Eichenwald, and Eichenwald is in, you know, is out everywhere now. Do you think the
00:56:42.540
right should respond in kind? No. It's so immoral what they're doing, the far left is doing. But
00:56:52.500
there is something called torturous interference, where that is against the law, civil law. And that's
00:57:02.360
where you can go. And I'm looking at that. Because these people are trying to destroy
00:57:09.620
industries, businesses, and people. They want to destroy people.
00:57:15.760
All right. I want to get into, because there was more released yesterday in court, I guess,
00:57:23.460
something was unsealed. And I'd like to get your response on that. And I think that's what you're
00:57:27.760
alluding to on torturous interference. We'll go there with Bill O'Reilly next.
00:58:02.640
So the New York Times has written yet another story on Bill O'Reilly and how he silenced his accusers.
00:58:09.820
Bill, they say that you forced these women to claim or to disclaim the materials that they had,
00:58:24.920
audio recordings or diaries, as counterfeit in forgeries if they ever became public.
00:58:33.180
Well, I mean, I guess that's the deal. So the two women reached settlements, but they were required
00:58:40.700
to turn over evidence and include audio recordings of diaries. And they were required to disclaim the
00:58:48.380
materials. I mean, why would someone sign something like that, Bill?
00:58:52.240
I have no idea. All I can tell you, Beck, is that I have to now go through the court system. I tried to
00:58:59.380
stay out of the system to protect my family. I can't. So the attacks on me are relentless.
00:59:04.960
They're not going to stop. Everybody knows why they're in play.
00:59:09.420
So all I can do is now go through the legal system.
00:59:13.800
Okay. So, so, so hang on just a second. I was being facetious when I said,
00:59:17.440
I know, but you know, they obviously, right. Well, hang on just a second. Here's, here's
00:59:23.020
my issue with this. You know, I don't know. I know what you have told me, which is very
00:59:29.640
little. You've never said anything other than I can't talk about it because of, you
00:59:35.700
know, court proceedings, et cetera, et cetera. But from what little I know, the, the only
00:59:42.240
other thing that I know is coming from, from these guys and leaking this material. Now the
00:59:50.080
court system will figure this all out and it will all be, well, I hope that, I hope it
00:59:55.320
will. Well, here's the, you know, it will. Well, here's, there's no other recourse for
01:00:00.380
me now. I mean, I just can't, I have to now take it in and it'll never, I look, I have come
01:00:07.860
to the realization that in my life, no matter how many years I have left, this will never
01:00:13.620
stop. It will never stop because they fear me and that's it. They're going to just use
01:00:21.800
whatever they can use. So rather than do it in the press or on the Glenn Beck program, basically
01:00:26.700
going to do it in the court system and pray that the court system will operate the way
01:00:32.860
So, so Bill, here's, here's the real question. The, the, the court system did work. You did
01:00:40.620
go make a, you made a, but they, yeah, of course, right. I did what I had to do to protect those
01:00:47.940
around me, but now they have apparently decided that they're just not going to live up to whatever
01:00:56.680
it is that we accommodate, you know, the accommodation that was reached. How did the judge
01:01:03.320
come to that yesterday? And I have no idea. I got to leave that to my, my attorneys. I don't
01:01:09.060
know. Uh, you know, I am just basically an American citizen asking for justice. That's all I am right
01:01:17.380
now. Not to throw myself on the court. I don't know what, why they're ruling the way they're
01:01:22.520
ruling. I don't, doesn't this take apart every single, uh, settlement that, that, uh, absolutely.
01:01:29.260
I mean, nobody in this country can ever sign a confidential settlement with anybody and expect
01:01:35.300
that that will be uphold from now on. What does that, what does that do to a, forget about you
01:01:40.520
for a second. What does that do? No settlements. Everything will have to be adjudicated. The courts
01:01:44.940
will be overwhelmed. Not only that, doesn't that hurt the people that actually, I mean, because
01:01:51.700
giant corporations, uh, you know, the idea was, you can do unintended consequences all day long on it,
01:01:58.560
but you know, it is apparent that, that legal documents and contracts are not being upheld.
01:02:07.360
And if the courts do not stop that, then you're going to have anarchy in the civil justice system,
01:02:12.980
which I think you have now. All right. Um, we'll move on. Um, there's a breaking thing about what
01:02:21.040
we talked about, uh, in the first segment here, this just broke on a media, which is a website.
01:02:28.440
It's an article by a left-wing guy, and I'm going to quote it. Securing the border is red meat for
01:02:34.400
Trump's bigoted base who desperately want to keep America white. Ironically, Trump will be spending
01:02:43.300
their tax dollars to serve them red meat. Will they care? Probably not. If it prevents the browning
01:02:50.180
of America. Bill, do you know, do you know anybody personally in your circle? Cause I don't
01:02:57.660
that is, that thinks that way. That it's, uh, that we, you know, uh, we're just going to get
01:03:03.360
the border security is all about. Yeah. We got to keep America white. We just got to keep America
01:03:07.980
white. I don't know anybody who thinks that way. No, I don't. Excellent question. I don't. I don't
01:03:12.100
know a single person. Regular folks don't think that way, but this is why the opposition to border
01:03:19.380
security is so vehement. It's all about getting white people out of positions of power.
01:03:27.080
I think it's, I think it is all about getting people of color to hate white people. I, and
01:03:38.140
that may, we may be saying the same thing, but I think it's people trying to cobble together
01:03:43.720
a coalition around hatred. I mean, why would you, why would you, there are haters involved
01:03:51.320
in it. I don't want to generalize and say everybody who opposes border security. I'm
01:03:57.460
not saying that not everybody. Yeah, I'm not saying there are, you know, there, there's
01:04:00.960
the people who believe in open borders for humanity. Yes, yes, yes. But what is not being
01:04:05.920
told except on programs like yours and mine, all right, to the folks is there is a reason
01:04:13.320
that the far left doesn't want border security. And it has nothing to do with humanitarian.
01:04:23.200
It doesn't have anything to do with that. It has to do with getting more influence in California,
01:04:32.320
in Arizona, in other states from minorities. Well, that, that was the argument on the, um,
01:04:40.440
on the, uh, the census is that California, you know, didn't want to, you know, have the
01:04:46.300
question, are you a, are you a legal citizen? My suggestion was, well, why California? Why
01:04:53.200
don't you just suggest that you count non-citizens as three-fifths a person? Dread Scott. Compare
01:05:00.400
California, the nation's largest state to what it was when Ronald Reagan was governor there
01:05:06.120
to what it is now. Ronald Reagan could never be elected anything in California. Now, ever
01:05:11.660
the Republican party doesn't exist except for a few counties. And it's because of this massive
01:05:18.540
influx of immigrants and people of color. And they have flocked into the democratic precincts,
01:05:28.260
which should openly promise them, uh, sanctuary and money, money. And therefore, California is
01:05:36.680
bankrupt. Therefore, it has the highest tax states in the union to pay off all of the promises that
01:05:43.720
they've made to the new voters. But the new voters now have tilted it out so that there's
01:05:50.480
never going to be a Republican elected in California or New York because New York city did exactly the
01:05:57.480
same thing. Does exactly the same thing. Does it have anything? I'm just, I keep, I keep going back
01:06:03.820
to the radicals of the 1960s because everything is so radical, um, right now. And it all seems to be
01:06:10.080
playing into again, you know, almost the Cloward and Piven overwhelm the system. There is no way for
01:06:16.000
the state of California, which is already taxed to death. There is no way for them to pay for all
01:06:22.060
of the services they can't pay for. Right. So, I mean, collapses in their future. It doesn't matter
01:06:29.060
because they hold political power in Sacramento. And so they can pass their insane agendas that people
01:06:37.240
are going, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, what now? What, what are you telling me? I can't drink coffee
01:06:41.660
now. I got coffee label. What? You know, and it's, it's, this is the reason that we have a porous
01:06:51.960
border and a border that's dangerous. It's actually dangerous. It's all about voting. It's all about
01:06:57.940
power. It's all about getting the white people out of power. And people should know what the real
01:07:05.180
reason is Bill O'Reilly from Bill O'Reilly.com. What do you have coming up? Um, we have a
01:07:13.220
interesting, uh, take on why the media, okay. They've, they've lost the Russian collusion thing
01:07:22.820
back. You know that, right? Yes. It's over. All right. So it's now, okay, we got to get Trump.
01:07:30.220
We can't stop. You know, the, the rules of radical Saul Alinsky is you can't stop.
01:07:37.240
That's what's happening to me. You got to continue, continue, continue, continue because
01:07:43.000
people then get exhausted and say, okay, we're better off without whoever's being attacked.
01:07:47.540
That's the strategy. So the women, all right, they came up after the Russian thing that didn't
01:07:53.740
really work out for as Trump's Rasmus approval ratings, 50% now that it didn't work that well.
01:08:00.660
So now what's where next for Donald Trump? We're next. And that's what we're going to
01:08:06.360
do on Bill O'Reilly.com tonight. Thank you very much, Bill O'Reilly. All right.
01:08:10.520
But Bill O'Reilly.com. Good to talk to you, Bill. Have a good weekend.
01:08:13.260
I keep thinking it's Friday because we had Bill on, but he, uh, he had a prior engagement
01:08:21.300
tomorrow. And so he's a day early. Seems like we get to take the day off then tomorrow.
01:08:26.080
I am all for it. I am all for it. If you were got up and you were listening to the program,
01:08:31.220
you're like, Oh, it's Friday and Bill's on now. No, sorry. Well, you get to take the day
01:08:35.180
off too. Then tomorrow, if that's, if you thought that during the interview, then you have a legal
01:08:39.540
reason. You're right. Just get a note from your doctor. Trigger warning.
01:08:42.780
Trigger warning. It's only Thursday. All right.
01:08:48.060
I want to talk to you about American financing. There are companies like, uh, Airbnb where people
01:08:53.940
are making a lot of money on a second home. Airbnb has created a whole new industry for people,
01:08:59.100
uh, to tap into the multi-billion dollar industry of renting. Would you ever do that, Stu?
01:09:04.660
Would you ever? I've used Airbnb. I know, but would you ever, I use it too, but I, I don't know if I
01:09:10.440
would do that to my house. It would be for a second. I mean, for a second house, it makes
01:09:13.680
a lot of sense, right? If you're going to have a house, uh, you know, you got enough problems
01:09:17.160
with one house. You're going to have two. You'd be like, Oh, well, if it's an investment and you
01:09:22.040
can, you can gain the, uh, the, the capital being so logical, stop it. If you, if you have a second,
01:09:30.220
if you have a second home, uh, or if you're thinking, you know, I'd like that second home,
01:09:35.820
uh, and I'd like it to, uh, pay for itself. Airbnb may be the thing for you, but American
01:09:41.640
financing definitely is whether you're in for a second home, a first home, or even a consolidation
01:09:46.320
loan. You can easily make a couple thousand dollars every month. If you list your home as a,
01:09:51.900
uh, uh, something to rent or for vacation property, make sure you check your city and
01:09:56.820
county ordinance and real estate has consistently been a great investment and qualifying for a second
01:10:02.560
home, maybe easier than you think. Interest rates remain low. And right now you can put down
01:10:07.600
as little as 10%, 10% down a second home could be more consistent than stocks, but don't take my word
01:10:15.140
for it. Talk to the salary-based mortgage consultants at American financing, 866-750-6551,
01:10:23.860

01:10:45.140
Welcome to the program. It is a Thursday. So, um, later on after the program, I was singing
01:11:05.640
Stu about, um, snorting some, uh, condoms. Really? Yeah. Have you done that yet? You know,
01:11:11.920
not as much as I would have liked to have, uh, you know, you think that teenagers are snorting
01:11:17.080
condoms now because, uh, perhaps they didn't get the lesson in kindergarten about the condom
01:11:25.760
and the banana. Is that the year they're teaching that these days? I think so. Maybe they may be
01:11:31.800
teaching it in the womb now. I'm not really sure. No, they wouldn't be teaching that. Cause that's
01:11:35.480
just a, just a hunk of cells. I am kind of surprised we have not heard the Republicans
01:11:41.440
want to stop sex education. That's why kids think they need to snort condoms. I'm surprised
01:11:46.220
we haven't heard that argument yet. Yeah. Where are the hot takes? You know, I feel like
01:11:50.740
Salon is letting us down. Salon or Huffington Post. I feel like we should have had that take
01:11:56.600
on. What is going on with the left? They're disappointing me. Yeah. By the way, more importantly,
01:12:02.500
I think that snorting condom, putting condoms inside your nose, which is ridiculous. Next
01:12:06.400
hour, Jeffy will be on to eat crickets. Well, wait a minute, wait a minute. Condoms are not
01:12:13.540
made to snort. Okay. I don't know if you know this. Okay. Okay. What else would they be used
01:12:20.420
for? Uh, bananas. Bananas. Okay. So condoms are not made to snort. It's very, it's stupid.
01:12:26.660
I actually saw an article on this. Are you trying to make the argument that crickets are made
01:12:30.560
to eat? Uh, yes, they are in, in their delicacy in many cultures. Those cultures are dumb. Yeah.
01:12:36.300
Well, I agree with you. All cultures are not the same, but a lot of people don't agree with us and
01:12:41.380
that's very hurtful. Um, but if you look at the, uh, if you look at the crickets, Stu, the crickets
01:12:46.660
are in a box and they are marked food substance. I found this in a candy store. They're real crickets
01:12:53.240
and real larva. Uh, larvettes, I believe. Larvettes. That's the, that's the brand name. Larvettes and
01:13:00.120
crickets. Yes. So anyway, so he'll be here to do that. But as I was watching this, uh, teenager
01:13:05.660
snort this condom on YouTube, uh, she was going through real pain and she was like, ow, ow, ow.
01:13:14.120
And I thought, you know, that is the body's way of saying, stop doing that. You know? Yeah. That's
01:13:25.980
pretty much why pain is there. Pain is not something there that's just like, oh, I don't know. Just
01:13:30.460
I've got pain. I don't know. I don't know why it happens. No, that's the body's way of saying
01:13:37.880
something's wrong. And listen to Glenn. He's a doctor. Thank you. Thank you. I think maybe that's
01:13:46.020
a very true in this case. Cause I, I mean, can we, I don't want to get one of this too deeply,
01:13:50.600
but I have thought about it a little bit. You snort a condom, right? What's the, the outcome
01:13:54.980
is essentially comes down the back of the throat and then you pull it out your mouth. I mean,
01:14:00.440
it's horrific to think about, but also not appetizing in any way. No, I don't, you know,
01:14:07.880
I, I, I don't look at a, you know, a friend of mine and go, that's cool. Now we did try to get
01:14:17.180
our friends to laugh and shoot milk through their nose, which is the same kind of thing. Sort of,
01:14:24.380
uh, again, condom milk is meant to be. Yeah. Nobody, nobody sat around in the cafeteria and said,
01:14:32.460
I'm going to try to make milk come through my nose. That's something we did to other people.
01:14:38.240
Right. Okay. We were cruel like that. I don't, I don't understand. First of all,
01:14:44.220
milk is in your mouth already. Condoms shouldn't be anywhere near your nose. I'm just, I'm just saying.
01:15:03.680
So here we go again. Another major data breach. This time it's Orbitz, the popular travel booking
01:15:08.880
platform. They announced the breach may have compromised 880,000 customers. Hackers access
01:15:14.580
credit card numbers to use, uh, news to book travel through the platform's website in 2016 and 2017.
01:15:19.880
The hackers may have also stolen names, dates of birth, phone numbers, addresses, and gender. You
01:15:24.880
don't want your gender stolen. That's really bad. There are so many threats in today's connected
01:15:29.300
world, and it takes just one week link for criminals to get in. Good thing. New lifelock

01:16:02.740
Love. Courage. Truth. Glenn Beck. Do you think that the press would care? Do you think the
01:16:18.200
press would point out that it is unethical for the NRA to donate $116,898 to Republican candidates,
01:16:31.620
including half of that to Donald Trump? Right? I mean, here's an organization that has blood on its
01:16:37.660
hands. It would be unethical if they didn't report it. Holy cow.
01:16:47.200
So I can't understand why they're not reporting today that a Planned Parenthood affiliate donated
01:16:54.120
$116,898 to the Democratic candidates and didn't report it. The Wisconsin branch of Planned Parenthood
01:17:02.260
was fined a whopping $5,850 by the Federal Election Commission for failing to report $116,898
01:17:12.740
in independent expenditures to Hillary Clinton for president and Russ Feingold.
01:17:21.640
Okay, it's fairly obvious why they donate to Feingold, who supports partial birth abortions. And
01:17:27.260
to be clear, partial birth abortions don't involve just dismembering children in the womb because it's
01:17:34.080
too tight in there to cut them up in the womb right before birth. Partial birth abortion means
01:17:40.960
the baby is pulled through the birth canal and only the head remains. And then they just stick a spike
01:17:50.220
into the head and scramble the brains until the kid is dead. Then the head comes out of the birth
01:17:55.900
canal. So it's one of those beautiful procedures. Feingold has voted eight times to allow partial birth
01:18:04.520
abortions. The guy's a moneymaker for Planned Parenthood. Of course, they're going to support him.
01:18:09.620
The Wisconsin Planned Parenthood affiliate donated $58,449 and four cents to both Clinton and
01:18:18.260
Feingold. Now that's not why they're in trouble. In fact, it's quite common for Planned Parenthood
01:18:23.780
affiliates to donate hundreds of thousands of dollars to political causes, which is weird
01:18:28.560
because they're trying to spend that money on mammograms. They're doing everything they can.
01:18:35.000
They're just it's it's hand them out. The cupboards are bare. They need to have those tax dollars come
01:18:40.960
in because there's no money for these poor women. As affiliates of Planned Parenthood, they're allowed
01:18:48.920
to funnel money into candidates and causes that benefit the operational arm of Planned Parenthood,
01:18:54.640
the now federally funded organization, which performed over 300,000 abortions last year and received
01:19:02.740
$543.7 million in taxpayer subsidies. Can I ask, when did this country stop having the discussion that
01:19:11.580
we will never we will never fund abortions? Do you remember that? We're never going to afford,
01:19:18.420
you know, to support abortions. We will never. It's an outrage to say that this Congress wants to
01:19:25.640
pass a bill that will fund abortions. When did we stop having that argument? When did that just become
01:19:32.200
normal? Planned Parenthood now is in trouble for not reporting the donations as required by law.
01:19:41.980
The distinctions are fraught with legalese and courtroom jargon, which is a large part of the
01:19:48.240
problem. But where does Planned Parenthood stand? More importantly, where is all of that money coming
01:19:56.720
from? By the way, don't bother to find this in the news. It's not there. The mainstream media isn't
01:20:04.140
interested in journalism of this kind. They are far too busy trying to figure out just exactly how many
01:20:11.240
diet cokes. President Trump is consuming every day. It's Thursday, April 5. This is the Glenn Beck
01:20:24.120
program. Is it just me, Stu, on that with Planned Parenthood? Do you remember when they would say
01:20:31.940
we're not we're never going to fund abortions in this and then all of a sudden now we're doing it
01:20:36.600
all the time? Well, as you know, Glenn, what happens is individual dollars come into Planned
01:20:44.500
Parenthood. And those individual dollars are put inside of a giant vat of money. And what they do
01:20:52.420
when they want to take and pay for an abortion, they reach in there and make sure they avoid
01:20:58.080
those specific dollars. They never even touch one of those dollars that are coming in. Because as you
01:21:07.640
know, they are primarily a women's health facility that facilitates women's health. And so what they do
01:21:18.000
is they just kind of navigate their fingers around the dollars that are set from the government and they
01:21:23.700
pick up other outside dollars to pay for abortions, even though the overwhelming majority of the reason
01:21:29.480
you would go to Planned Parenthood is going to be to get an abortion. And all of the procedures that
01:21:34.340
must be required to get an abortion, those can all be paid for, but not the actual abortion, which is
01:21:41.640
supposed to make you feel so good and so excited to send in your dollars every April 15th.
01:21:48.320
All right, good. Okay. Cause that's, that's not, that's not happening for me. I'm not feeling
01:21:52.720
good about it. You're not? No, I'm not. You're not feeling charitable when you're paying for other
01:21:56.980
associated? No, I actually feel ripped off. But these are associated procedures with abortion,
01:22:01.740
but not actual abortion. It's weird. I pay, I pay 10% to my church and I know exactly where my church
01:22:08.860
is spending that, you know, I can follow the dollars. I see what the percentage is on how much actually
01:22:15.900
went to that particular problem that they were trying to solve. Sure. I know how much money is going to
01:22:20.840
food and clothing and, and housing people all around the world. So I give my 10% to my church and I,
01:22:26.840
and I'm happy to do it because it's, it's, it's very efficient. It's a, if there's one thing the Mormons
01:22:32.840
are good at efficiency, so it's very efficient. And so I have no problem doing that and I can check
01:22:39.360
at any time. And you know what, if they became wasteful, I would still give 10%, but I wouldn't
01:22:45.780
give it to them. Hmm. Well, sure. I would be, I would be a good steward of this money, but see,
01:22:52.800
when it comes to April 15th, I have no idea where this money is going. They're buying turtle tunnels,
01:22:59.180
doing all kinds of stuff, wasting, paying, paying off litigation, you know, for hashtag me too,
01:23:07.500
for scumbags that are in Congress. I really don't want to pay for all of that stuff. Well,
01:23:12.460
your approach seems boring. What? I mean, like if you go to a movie, if you went to a movie theater
01:23:16.680
and it's the sixth sense and the first scene, it says, by the way, Bruce Willis is dead the whole
01:23:22.880
time. Yeah. Now the sixth sense. That would suck. You go to, when you donate to your church,
01:23:27.740
it's going to go to a good cause and they're actually going to use it efficiently. That's
01:23:30.060
boring. Here is like, you get an M night Shyamalan twist. They tell you it's not going to
01:23:34.480
abortion, but it actually is at the end. Oh my gosh. You're right. Oh my gosh. I didn't
01:23:38.660
know the whole time. I've been funding that. It's like the fun and the exhilaration of going
01:23:43.700
to Vegas. Okay. Yeah. You just, it could do good, but it probably is going to the mob. And even if
01:23:50.680
it's going to do some good, it's going to do it really inefficiently. I like that. Yeah. It's a
01:23:55.640
really fun way to do business that we should give the government more of our money and more power
01:24:00.120
so they can do that to us more. Only, only if they take away my guns. I hate, oh God,
01:24:05.760
their guns are so bad. Only if they take away my guns. They're so bad. You know, I want everyone
01:24:08.840
to know that, uh, Trump is a fascist, but please have him take our guns immediately because it
01:24:13.860
turns out really well when you have, when you're a resist movement, right? You're, you're saying
01:24:19.780
you're resistance. Let's say, let's use the word resistance. Well, let's use the word that
01:24:24.240
they're using now, not just resistance, revolution, revolution. You know, a member of Congress
01:24:28.420
said, I think it's time for the revolution. So the best thing you can do if you're for
01:24:32.680
revolution is take away all the guns. I was going in a slightly different direction when
01:24:38.980
it comes to, uh, our absolutely incredibly sarcastic points we're making. I'm not being
01:24:44.440
sarcastic. I believe every word of this, which is if you have a fascist government and you
01:24:51.320
consider yourself to be the resistance, think of how ineffective that resistance would
01:24:56.380
be if you actually were to give the fascist government all of your weapons. This is not
01:25:03.140
an advisable action in this particular circumstance. It's almost as if they don't actually believe
01:25:10.360
the government is fascist because if they did, you wouldn't think that immediately turning
01:25:16.260
your weapons over to that fascist government would be advisable. Unless they're all French
01:25:22.160
and they're like, no way we could win anyway. And which is really weird, which is really
01:25:27.380
weird. People say all the time, you know, I can't believe what you're going to fight against
01:25:31.900
the United States government. I don't know. Al Qaeda was doing pretty good. We have to take
01:25:36.420
that point down because this is ISIS did pretty good. This gets repeated all the time. Palestinians
01:25:41.720
seem to be holding up. What are you going to do with your AR 15 against the government? They
01:25:46.440
have tanks. And what that is designed to do is to make you picture in your head, tanks
01:25:52.540
rolling up your driveway and you standing there by yourself with your AR 15. Okay. And it's
01:25:57.220
a very successful idea. Now, again, we hope it never comes to this, but this is what the
01:26:01.660
founders wanted to protect against. They didn't want a tyrannical government. So they, they
01:26:05.820
put the second amendment in the largely for that purpose. Okay. So the idea that you have
01:26:09.900
your AR 15 and tanks roll up your driveway. Yes, you're going to lose that battle. However, think
01:26:14.980
about it from the other perspective. Think about a government who wants to, uh, uh, institute
01:26:21.420
tyranny over its people. Oh boy. Okay. Let's just say they want to do that. Listen to where
01:26:26.100
he's going. Okay. Think about the, just the logistical challenge of rolling over 350 million
01:26:34.920
guns. Okay. Trying to go door to door to stop an armed populace who is resisting you that has
01:26:42.540
350 million guns. Yeah. You know what? You could nuke all the cities. Oh, they've got nukes. Yeah.
01:26:49.880
You could nuke all the cities. And in the end, I guess you'd win that battle. What country are you
01:26:54.600
running at that point though? What, what, what, what have you done to the nation? You supposedly want
01:26:59.480
to have tyranny over. There's nothing left to run. You've killed everyone and there's no
01:27:03.920
infrastructure anywhere and there's no economy and there's nothing going on. If you try to go door to
01:27:09.820
door, I can tell you it's pretty difficult. And you know how I can tell you it's pretty difficult
01:27:13.660
because I got that information from the same people who told us it was going to be impossible
01:27:18.420
to win a war in Iraq with the U S military going door to door against the Iraqi people.
01:27:25.060
You are the people who told us it was going to be impossible to go door to door in Iraq. And it
01:27:30.880
was really freaking hard. They didn't even have AR 15s. Most of them, they didn't have a second
01:27:35.720
amendment. They didn't have 350 million guns and the U S military went in there and still
01:27:40.460
had a lot of problems. So I, this, this idea that having a self-defense mechanism against
01:27:47.860
the government is meaningless. It's not, you're right. Tanks rolling up your driveway, you're
01:27:52.260
going to have a real tough time with your gun. However, it is a real deterrent over even
01:27:57.020
attempting this. Why would you even bother? It would be so difficult. You'd lose so many
01:28:02.060
lives. You'd have such a destroyed society by the end of it. It wouldn't be worth it.
01:28:06.420
I'm really sorry. Uh, Stu, I, I tried to bring up something that maybe you'd be a little passionate
01:28:12.780
about. I'm sorry. I missed the mark. There's nothing like, there's nothing like having a
01:28:21.620
conversation with a friend and you just say one thing and then they go off. It's just like, wow,
01:28:26.560
it's the 4th of July. Look at these fireworks. This is fun. All right. Want to talk to you a little
01:28:31.720
bit about American finance. American financing can, uh, give you a consolidation loan. They can
01:28:37.060
refi your house. You know, maybe you've, maybe you've already paid 10 years on your house and you
01:28:41.340
don't want another 30 year mortgage. I get it. You can get a mortgage built for you. The time
01:28:48.240
period that you want. Here's what American financing does. They work for you. You call them
01:28:54.140
up and you say, Hey, look, I'm looking to consolidate all of my debt, or I'm looking for,
01:28:58.340
you know, uh, a, a mortgage and get out of my adjustable mortgage. I want to get out of my
01:29:04.580
mortgage insurance. Now the time is past. So can you help me out on this? They work for you. They
01:29:09.720
don't work for the banks. And so they will customize any loan. They're going to go out and find the right
01:29:14.860
loan for you. It's a custom loan and it's not customized for the banks, but for you, it's mortgage
01:29:23.700
your way. Wow. It's almost like Burger King, except a lot, lot better. It takes one call to
01:29:35.380
their salary-based mortgage consultants. And you could close in as fast as 10 days only with
01:29:41.320
American financing. I really liked these guys family owned and operated American financing.

01:30:05.700
Glenn Beck. Jennifer Garner is in mourning and I mourn with her. She's lost the, her beloved
01:30:22.460
reading buddy and walking partner. She announced it on, on Monday that her pet chicken has died.
01:30:31.520
Oh no. Her pet chicken has, has died. Her pet chicken has passed away. And did you say
01:30:37.480
reading partner? Which was, that was the phrasing you? Oh, you don't know, you don't know about
01:30:41.120
what's happening with chickens now? With the elite? The elite chickens? No, not the elite
01:30:46.200
chickens. Oh. All chickens are the same. Can't tell them apart. They all look alike. Wow.
01:30:50.080
That's racist. Huh? They all look the same to you. Yeah. They all look the same to me.
01:30:54.480
Anyway. So, uh, the chickens now, especially in Silicon Valley, um, I hesitate to say this
01:31:02.620
cause I was thinking about taking a new job out there. I was thinking about going out there
01:31:05.620
and just, and when, and taking this job. And if I say this, I think there might be a rush
01:31:09.640
of people from the middle of the country moving out towards Silicon Valley. Um, the, uh, the
01:31:15.560
chickens are the big hot pet now. And, uh, and so people are, are, are keeping them as pets
01:31:22.120
and they're, and I'm not making this up. They're putting chicken diapers on chickens,
01:31:27.760
chicken diapers, chicken diapers. So these are not diapers made of chicken. They're diapers made
01:31:33.740
for chickens. Yes. Yes. They're diapers made for chickens. Now I'm not sure if they were actually
01:31:38.920
made for chickens or they're just like baby diapers that are strapped onto the chicken. I'm not sure
01:31:44.120
because they do have doggy diapers that are made specifically for chicken diapers. Now people are
01:31:48.160
keeping chickens indoors, uh, and they're keeping them as pets and they have little leashes that
01:31:53.720
they put around their necks and, uh, and, uh, some of the chicken coops, which my grandfather
01:31:59.080
used to make out of just, you know, scrap lumber, you know, uh, these chicken coops are now running
01:32:04.860
as, uh, as high as $18,000. Uh, you know, but they're as low as 12,000. Oh, just the 12,
01:32:12.120
$12,000 chicken coop that's in the back. And this is why I'm, I want to tell you, you know what?
01:32:17.460
I'm going to let you have this job. I'm gonna let you have this job. If you happen to raise
01:32:21.960
chickens and you know, you know, all of the ins and outs of chicken raising, which they're very
01:32:26.000
complex. They're very complex. Um, right now the wealthy and the famous and the tech leaders are,
01:32:33.140
um, are paying for chicken consultants and they are paying upwards of $300 an hour for chicken
01:32:44.040
consultants. And the chicken consultant does what exactly? Consult you about your chicken.
01:32:48.440
Like advises you, advises you, you know, how to feed them, how to, what they might be feeling,
01:32:54.540
what they might be feeling, might be feeling chickens have feelings. Oh, I'm sure they do.
01:32:59.240
Okay. But I mean, I just, you know, they would, it would make sense kind of diaper for your chicken,
01:33:03.100
you know, how not to ever, ever show them a picture of Colonel Sanders that sets them off.
01:33:09.940
That is a, that's a, that's a trigger. It's a trigger for, so, so anyway, so, uh, Regina George
01:33:18.100
has passed away and she wanted to let everybody know from natural causes, natural causes. Um,
01:33:26.080
It's terrible. I don't know if you bury the chicken or eat the chicken, but I don't, it feels like,
01:33:36.520
you know, I assume the end of the story years after didn't have Wilbur eventually being eaten
01:33:42.480
by the family. Right. It seems like when, once we find personality in animals, we stop eating them.
01:33:47.840
It does seem to be a general practice. Like, you know, it's always like this story where it's like
01:33:52.660
a cow escaped. It was about to be slaughtered that day and somehow broke through a fence and ran
01:33:58.700
across town. That cow never gets slaughtered later. That cow just becomes like a mascot for the farm.
01:34:04.640
Right. Like you find that they like, this is an amazing escape story. We can't, it escaped. And
01:34:10.060
then they, they don't wind up going through it. You know, this isn't really, there's a couple of
01:34:13.920
things in my childhood that I question now. Okay. I, I really question a couple of things. One,
01:34:19.620
my, my mother used to make us rice and raisins, which I used to love. And she would boil raisins
01:34:24.300
in, in some milk. And then, uh, and then she'd put some rice and some raisins in there and then
01:34:29.600
she'd serve it. I found out later when I, I said to Tanya, I said, Oh, you know, one of my favorites
01:34:34.780
is, and nobody has this ever is rice and raisins. And she said, how do you make it? And started to
01:34:39.760
make it. And she said, it's rice pudding. It's just, you just have to cook it longer. And I
01:34:46.660
realized my mother was just lazy. My mother was just like, that's good enough for them.
01:34:51.580
And she just, it was like, she just to start making the, you know, rice pudding. And then
01:34:55.480
she'd be like, ah, it's just my kids. Well, I'm going to stand here for another two hours making
01:34:59.400
this flop. So, uh, so that question that, and then also the end of my, my collie, my dog Prince,
01:35:07.660
um, we were, we were giving away my, my dog, uh, because we lived kind of in the city and I was
01:35:13.980
getting older and it wasn't, you know, we, I wasn't, you know, with him all the time. And he was,
01:35:17.760
he was an out, he was an outdoor dog. And, uh, and so we decided to give him to a farm. And, uh,
01:35:24.960
and I said, at one point, I, I, I really, I, I, you know, can, can we ever go visit Prince? Now,
01:35:30.260
what do you say to your child when they say, can we ever go visit, you know, our dog? Uh, sure,
01:35:37.620
but not right now, but not right now. Okay. You do that. Or you just say, you know what? It'll be
01:35:43.120
really hard on Prince to do that. You know, you know, you know, you know what my parents said,
01:35:47.260
what, what did they? Oh, um, yeah. He ran out in the street and got hit by a car a couple of
01:35:54.160
weeks ago. He's dead. I'm like, you couldn't have just let him live in my head. Like Wilbur did.
01:36:01.480
I mean, holy cow, tough twist. I am starting to question things about my childhood. It may not
01:36:12.880
be as rosy as I thought it was. Glenn Beck, Mercury.
01:36:24.160
You're listening to the Glenn Beck program. Welcome to the program. Mr. Pat Gray from Pat
01:36:33.860
Gray Unleashed. Glad to be here. Yeah. Good to have you here, Pat. Somewhat, somewhat troubled after
01:36:38.440
Bill's appearance today. What do you mean? Well, because he didn't address the substance of what
01:36:44.260
is being said in the leaked reports. I understand he's upset with the leak itself and that's,
01:36:49.040
that makes sense. But we, I wish he would have addressed, uh, the substance of what was being
01:36:55.360
said that they were going to, you know, when the evidence comes out, you must lie about it.
01:36:59.900
Yeah. It was essentially what they were saying. Well, no, you have to discredit it or yeah.
01:37:03.340
You have to say it's counterfeit. Yeah. You have to say it's counterfeit. Now, right. So I don't
01:37:06.820
understand. Which means there's evidence. Well, you knew that. Of the, I knew what?
01:37:10.740
Well, it's been, there was a, it's been widely reported. There was a diary and there is a sex
01:37:14.960
tape, a sex tape. Well, not a, not a sex tape, but a phone conversation. Audio. Yeah. There's been
01:37:21.120
reports about that. Is this the lease wheel thing? His lawyer. No, no, no. This isn't one of the,
01:37:28.620
Oh, this is the, this is the early one in the nineties. Remember he said, okay. Yeah. Okay. So I'm
01:37:36.000
trying to protect my family. Uh, do you want your heavy breathing? You know, it was apparently
01:37:45.180
a consensual sort of thing. And then she recorded it and then she recorded it and had a problem.
01:37:52.000
That's right. And he said, give me the stuff. And from here on out, I'm going to give you all
01:37:57.920
this money. That's right. Deny it. But the way it's being presented, of course, as always,
01:38:04.260
as bill says is ugly. It looks, you know, they make it look, the New York times makes it look as
01:38:10.400
bad as possible or that it's maybe one of these later women, uh, who are claiming harassment or
01:38:17.000
whatever. And that's not the case. So it's right. So it's a macrus thing. So here's the, so here's
01:38:21.140
the thing, you know, you just, you don't engage in stuff, uh, you know, and you don't, you don't
01:38:28.740
settle stuff. That's a good safety tip. You just don't settle stuff anymore. And in that case,
01:38:32.820
that was a consensual relationship. He was cheating on his wife. Forgot about that. Um,
01:38:38.580
but it was a consensual relationship and it didn't go well. What a surprise. Yeah. So you
01:38:44.200
don't settle stuff. Yeah. You just take your lumps. But for that, um, you shouldn't have your
01:38:52.020
career destroyed. No, you think I think, yeah, I think. So are you, are you okay today? Cause
01:38:59.900
we've been mourning the loss of, uh, of, uh, chicken Regina George, uh, the, uh, the beloved
01:39:06.620
walking and reading buddy of Jennifer Gardner, the chicken. You could have broken that to me a
01:39:13.200
little bit more gently. I didn't even know that chicken Regina was sick. Yeah. Yeah. She was sick.
01:39:19.600
She was sick. She's going to be okay. She's dead or own. Okay. So, okay. That's a lot better.
01:39:25.140
Okay. Thank you. Now I'm a little more accepting. So I didn't know if you give me some time to heal.
01:39:31.080
Have you heard about the thing that this is the new California thing to have. Is it a support
01:39:37.540
chicken? Is that what it is? Is it an emotional support chicken? I think it is. They're making
01:39:42.480
chickens into pets. Now I have to tell you, we have chickens at the farm. My daughter has chickens.
01:39:49.720
Okay. My daughter has little, my daughter has two little kids. So they have named the chickens.
01:39:56.680
Now the chickens might disappear at some point. It's very sad. Wind up on a dinner plate. No,
01:40:04.020
I don't know what's going to happen there, but, but I mean, it's still a chicken, you know,
01:40:10.040
it's still a human chicken relationship. It's not a pet. Right. Uh, and now the big thing is to have
01:40:16.560
chickens as pets and they're putting chicken diapers on them so they can be in the house.
01:40:22.000
Come on. No, I swear to you, look it up. Do we know why this is a cool thing? Why does a chicken
01:40:26.540
make a good pet? Jeffy is. Jeffy says yes. Jeffy. Chickens have a personality. It's just like,
01:40:33.420
just like you and I. Do they? No, they don't. No, that's untrue. That's a false statement,
01:40:39.980
but thank you for making it. I want to, I want to get a chicken. I want a chicken. I want a studio
01:40:44.880
chicken. I want a studio chicken and we'll put, we'll put, let's put some diapers on it tomorrow.
01:40:50.540
Can we borrow someone's chicken? Because my daughter will not let us borrow their chicken. I know she won't.
01:40:54.940
I thought it was your chicken. No, it's not my chicken. How is it going to disappear then?
01:41:00.080
What? How is it going to disappear? I live next door. I know the combination law.
01:41:05.880
I mean, I look, if I'm, you know, if I'm a chicken owner, especially if I have pet chickens,
01:41:10.340
I probably am not going to allow my chicken in the same building. We need a chicken. We need to borrow
01:41:17.380
a chicken tomorrow and diapers. Anybody know anything about chicken diapers?
01:41:21.780
Well, if you have pet chicken, you know everything about it. Right. In Texas, you would think that
01:41:27.420
you could buy a chicken diaper. It's in Texas after all. Yeah. Either that, or if you ask,
01:41:32.400
they may string you up. I'm not, I'm not sure which it is. I think they give you a diaper made
01:41:38.480
out of a chicken. I think that's going to be fair. They actually may do that. They might do that. Okay.
01:41:45.040
So anyway, we brought Jeffy in today because... Yeah, Stu said you needed some advice on something
01:41:50.800
for me, some expertise. No, we actually just wanted to see, we just wanted to see, I bet
01:41:55.100
that even you won't do it. That I won't do it? You won't do it. Me too. What, kill a support chicken?
01:42:02.080
No. Wrong. No. No. No. No. There was a segment we did on Pat and Stu occasionally.
01:42:08.280
Uh, and it was entitled, will Jeffy eat it? Uh, and it was a question we would come up with like
01:42:16.460
a very strange random food or substance and Jeffy would go into an isolation booth and we would try
01:42:23.960
to predict whether Jeffy would eat the substance we've come up with. Should we send him to the
01:42:27.380
isolation booth? Well, I mean, I mean, it is right here. It's right there. It is right there.
01:42:32.920
I saw the promo on the news and why it matters. Okay. All right. So you're kind of aware of
01:42:37.900
what's happening. I watched the network. So he's here. So I may be wrong. I think he shows
01:42:44.120
up. Well, let's, let's reveal what they are. Yeah. Reveal what they are. And, uh, Jeffy,
01:42:48.380
these, these are, these, this is good eating here. Ooh, this is the first time I've seen
01:42:53.180
them. Okay. So these are crickets. Where did you buy these? Uh, are they readily available
01:42:57.400
anywhere? I don't know. I, I bought them at, you know, a sugar place, uh, in, uh, Roanoke.
01:43:05.480
Hey, sugar. It's this candy store. It's this great candy store. And they have edible, uh,
01:43:11.240
crickets and larva, larva, crickets, bacon, and cheese, crickets, salt, and vinegar.
01:43:20.180
Larvettes. And that's the original worm snack. I hope these are not, this is not cheap
01:43:25.720
imitation. So this, yeah, the flavors is what gets you. If they were just bugs,
01:43:29.920
you couldn't say. So will you eat them? Would you eat them? I mean, maybe. I think you should
01:43:36.300
at least try them since we're on national radio. If you were to try one, which would it be?
01:43:41.760
Well, I guess you got to go with the bacon and cheese. That's what I figured. So I, we actually
01:43:44.880
came up, we had talked about this. No, but you got to try the Larvettes. Yeah. Cause I, here's,
01:43:48.280
here's the sellout, all three of them. Tell me which one you would try first, because one,
01:43:52.220
one, you got bacon and cheese, which is the best flavor of the three. But it's on a cricket.
01:43:55.800
Bacon and cheese, crickets. The other crickets are salt and vinegar. And while that's not my
01:43:59.620
favorite flavor, it's the most dominating flavor of the three. That's for sure. It's going to,
01:44:03.180
it's going to overwhelm the flavor of the cricket. I actually heard crickets don't taste bad.
01:44:07.940
The larva, the larva thing bothers me because of all the little legs on them. See, I actually,
01:44:12.800
what the other way is I think those are most similar to like a noodle. You're going to know
01:44:16.860
you're eating a cricket when you eat the crickets. But with the Larvettes, it's going to be,
01:44:21.640
they're very slim. I think you can just put them in there. I think there's, I think the legs are
01:44:26.520
much tinier on the Larvettes than on the crickets. By the way, other shows probably talking about
01:44:32.940
Stormy Daniels today. Aren't you glad you're here? I think people are sick of the Stormy Daniels.
01:44:39.600
I think so. All right. All right. So Jeffy, I think he's got to try one of each. I think that's
01:44:43.060
the easiest way to go about it. One of each. I thought the bit was whether I wanted to eat it
01:44:46.960
or not. Yeah. No, it's a little gone from that. Now it's, you will. You just got to rearrange the
01:44:53.300
world. You got to give us a review because you said I'm here. Jeffy will eat it. Oh, they're so
01:45:01.740
nasty looking. Oh God. They're all individually wrapped for freshness though. That's nice. Well,
01:45:07.780
individually wrapped as a collection of crickets. Okay. So Pat, why don't you open up the others and
01:45:12.220
you can, that way you can just, uh, are you actually going to try all three? Yes. He might
01:45:17.140
as well. Okay. So I'm here. I'm hungry. We're starting off with the bacon and cheese crickets.
01:45:21.540
These are little tiny crickets, legitimately crickets. You can watch it on. I mean, we've got
01:45:25.500
it. What, what, what Facebook page are you streaming that to Keith? It's on Twitter at the
01:45:32.540
blaze blaze Twitter. Okay. So there it is. And you can watch it on. Okay. Get close to the mic.
01:45:37.980
So we hear the crunchiness. Okay. So this is a bacon and cheese. I can't just swallow
01:45:41.000
it? No, you got to chew it. Of course you have to chew it. You're not going to
01:45:45.100
just swallow that. What kind of animal are you? Come on. Come on, eat it. Eat it. Eat it.
01:45:49.940
Oh, this is. Oh, not bad. Really? Not bad. Did you taste the bacon and cheese? Is it candy
01:45:59.700
like? Yeah. Or is it like a chip like? Really? More chip. More chip like. Is it a bacon and
01:46:05.900
cheese? Can you taste the bacon and cheese? He's eating another one. He's eating another
01:46:08.540
one. Of the same bacon and cheese. Okay. So this is the. Okay. So yeah, that, that one
01:46:13.040
is the sour cream and onion or whatever it is. Sour cream. That's a, that's a vinegar and
01:46:19.940
salt. Vinegar and salt. I don't like the salt and vinegar. All right. So now don't just
01:46:23.840
eat the head. Eat the whole thing. Come on. Don't try to cheat. He's not cheating. He's
01:46:30.500
eaten them. He's eaten by the handful now. These are like eaten in some countries that
01:46:35.220
I never want to. Billions of people eat bugs. I know. And the UN wants more billions of
01:46:39.180
people to eat bugs. I know. They're huge in Thailand. That's why I think we should get
01:46:42.460
rid of the UN. That is your main argument against the UN. You like those better? You
01:46:48.000
like the salt and vinegar better? Yeah. I'm not a big fan of salt and vinegar, but that's
01:46:51.480
not bad. Really? No. It's true. It kind of dominates. It's much more. It's a much stronger
01:46:56.840
flavor. So you like that better than the bacon cheese? No, the bacon cheese is
01:47:01.460
better. Oh. So bacon cheese. All right. So now here's the larva. And this is the
01:47:04.820
Mexican spice. Oh, it's so icky looking. Yeah, the larva. It is the original worm snack.
01:47:11.860
So that's what it says on the box. It's the original worm snack. Like somebody else was
01:47:17.480
doing this? Okay. I'm glad we have someone. I can't believe you're doing this. I can't
01:47:23.840
believe it either. That's amazing. Really gross. Because it doesn't have any bougie
01:47:26.580
sauce on it or anything. It's just candy. It's not candy. It's a bug. It's a bug. It
01:47:31.200
says it's candy. No. So what are the worms like? They're Mexican spice flavored. I can't
01:47:38.080
really taste anything with the worms. With the larvettes. See, that's why I think I
01:47:41.300
don't taste at all. So the best one was the bacon cheese cricket. So Jeffy does not like
01:47:49.400
the larva. Well, there's nothing to them. There's not enough larva flavor?
01:47:54.640
Maybe if you have a little ketchup to dip them in or something, it might be all right. Would
01:47:57.840
you, if you sat at a table and those were sitting there, and you were just alone, would
01:48:05.300
you just be like, hmm, I've had those before. Those are pretty good. No, they're not bad.
01:48:10.280
You keep eating them. I'm waiting on dinner. This is like a snack. It's like this pre-dinner snack.
01:48:17.220
In all honesty, if those things like it, now you know the taste of them. If you went
01:48:21.960
to a party and there was a bowl, you know, where all the snacks were and they were filled
01:48:26.580
with, let's say, bacon and cheese crickets. Oh, I just got a leg got my throat. Sorry.
01:48:30.980
Would you, would you, would you stick your hand in and take a handful and pop them down
01:48:38.780
at the party? And not because you're being seen by somebody, just because you're like,
01:48:42.220
oh, no, these aren't bad. Yeah, probably. You probably would. And for the bacon and cheese
01:48:46.700
crickets. Yeah. Now, of course, this obviously assumes the ridiculous premise that you'd be
01:48:50.760
invited to a party, which we all know would not. No, no, no, no, no, no. Not so ridiculous because
01:48:56.620
it is a party that is serving crickets. Thank you, Jeffy. Anytime you did my expertise.
01:49:06.580
Oh, of course. Yeah. Well, that's a good. At Jeffy MRA on Twitter is where you should go. I
01:49:11.480
don't, maybe we'll get an update at some point from you on Twitter today, uh, from how those
01:49:15.260
things tasted and what the maybe after effects are. I wonder if they rehydrate. They start
01:49:21.200
crawling around. Oh my God. They might reanimate in his belly. Uh, and, uh, at, uh, Pat Gray,
01:49:27.500
at Pat Unleashed, uh, is on Twitter as well. Uh, make sure you tune in today. And I assume on,
01:49:31.980
uh, Jeffy is on the Pat Unleashed program every day for his segment, Chew in the Fat
01:49:36.300
with Jeffy. Uh, is this going to be an update you think on the program today? Absolutely.
01:49:40.460
We definitely have to have an update on it. Good to see you, Jeffy. Thanks so much.
01:49:44.560
All right. I want to talk to you a little bit about Goldline. Goldline, uh, does a lot
01:49:50.000
of business with, um, the, um, the Canadian Mint. And if you're looking for, you know, if
01:49:56.560
you're looking for, um, an investment and you're looking for an investment where, uh,
01:50:03.440
the, the, your investment will go up while other things are going down, it's really gold.
01:50:08.360
Gold has had a great, uh, year. In fact, I think it's, um, I can't remember how much it's
01:50:15.060
up last year, but it, it had a great year last year. And with the volatility, gold is still
01:50:19.700
doing really, really well. Um, but they do this, uh, they do, um, coins, specialized coins
01:50:26.480
with the Canadian Mint. Uh, and you can see them there for the special forces, uh, there
01:50:32.020
for the war of 1812. They also have, um, the, the gold bullion, the little teeny gold
01:50:38.700
bullion, which I think are in a hundred dollar increments each. They're maybe a 10th of an
01:50:43.700
ounce, something like that. The credit card size thing. Yeah. Yeah. Cool. And I love this.
01:50:47.620
You put this in your pocket or you give this to your kids as they go to college. And that
01:50:50.800
way they always have something with them that in case things go crazy, they can get home.
01:50:55.800
You remember nine 11 people, what were people, I know people who are trying to get out of
01:51:00.300
the city and nobody was taking cash. Nobody was taking anything to get out of the city.
01:51:05.200
Um, cause they just, you know, how much are you going to pay me? Uh, and so, uh, you know,
01:51:11.480
they would have this on them and they would be able to have little gold bullion that you could
01:51:15.880
get out of the city, get out and get back home gold. It's not an all in strategy. I look at it
01:51:21.640
more as an insurance policy. If you are looking to spread around your risk a bit, you might want
01:51:26.840
to consider with the, uh, the brand new, um, IRA program that they have call them for all of the
01:51:33.140
information at eight, six, six gold line, one, eight, six, six gold line. You'll also just for
01:51:37.720
calling and asking them, tell them that you're a listener of mine. They're going to send you,
01:51:41.060
um, the free, um, copper, uh, St. Goddard's coin, which is really, really beautiful just for calling
01:51:49.000
up. And they'll send you the information also on the Canadian mint. Call them now. Gold line

01:52:03.540
Glenn Beck. Last year, Mercury one had their leadership program hosted by, uh, David Barton
01:52:20.060
and Mercury one. Uh, it's two weeks of you coming in and, or sending your kids, uh, and, and David
01:52:29.500
really putting them through the, through school and a leadership program. The first session starts
01:52:34.620
May 28th. Second is June 11th. And then the third is July 9th. They each last two weeks. Um, we're
01:52:41.640
looking for 18 to 25 year olds. You're going to learn about our country and you'll see the original
01:52:46.940
documents. You'll learn how to research. I just heard a story last night of one of the people that
01:52:50.720
attended last year. They wrote a, uh, a paper and I can't remember what it was on. It was like John Adams
01:52:56.160
and slavery. And the professor said, no, you don't want to do that. And she said, yes, I do.
01:53:00.020
He said, no, you really don't. She said, yes, I do. When she wrote the paper and turned it in,
01:53:04.720
not knowing what kind of grade she was going to get, uh, she passed with flying colors with an A
01:53:09.060
and the, the professor said, I had to look some of this stuff up. I didn't even know if that was true
01:53:14.500
or not. It was the best well-researched paper I've ever read. Leadership program, mercury one.org
