00:00:00.000 The Blaze Radio Network, on demand.
00:00:08.540 Let me tell you about our sponsor.
00:00:10.680 It is Brickhouse.
00:00:12.740 If fake news was a product, then it would be a superfood, because superfoods are not superfoods.
00:00:20.840 If you look at the nutrition, you know, it'll have nutritional facts or supplement facts.
00:00:26.240 There's no supplement in a superfood.
00:00:28.140 You don't see that on a package of broccoli.
00:00:30.800 You don't see that on real, actual superfoods, beets.
00:00:34.100 It doesn't say supplements on that.
00:00:36.400 That means you have to add something to it.
00:00:39.060 A real superfood is something like Field of Greens, because they have nutrition facts and not supplements.
00:00:46.440 This is real food.
00:00:48.740 USDA organic fruits and vegetables, complete with all the antioxidants.

00:01:06.540 Glenn Beck.
00:01:08.600 Do you remember the scene in the Terminator where the machine versus the human war starts with a gigantic thermonuclear fireball?
00:01:16.200 I'd love that.
00:01:18.760 That was great.
00:01:19.880 Artificial intelligence is coming, whether we like it or not.
00:01:23.180 And it's either going to be started with a giant fireball, you know, something terrified or something terrifying or something completely awesome.
00:01:31.780 I'm not sure which one.
00:01:33.240 And it's not only me that doesn't know.
00:01:36.020 It's the developers that don't know because AI is going to be it's described as alien thinking.
00:01:44.300 We have no idea how it's going to think.
00:01:47.560 And if you want to know, read a little bit about how AI is learning how to play Go and is beating all of the Go champions, which is one of the hardest games to play.
00:01:56.380 And it's beating all of the champions.
00:02:00.020 And at first they thought that it was cheating.
00:02:02.940 No, it just thinks completely differently.
00:02:05.960 It's like an alien life form.
00:02:08.580 Oh, and those are always great when they're really, really powerful.
00:02:12.480 All we know is that there is currently an all out race to see who the first is going to be to create AI.
00:02:22.580 That doesn't seem good.
00:02:24.180 Now, looking at the possible threats of AI, you know, a catastrophic Terminator, I'll be back.
00:02:32.140 I don't think that's Hollywood.
00:02:35.520 I don't think that's going to be.
00:02:37.260 However, in the very near future, an algorithm controlled economic meltdown might ultimately take place.
00:02:45.100 You know, instead of the Terminator, it could be a thermonuclear explosion of money.
00:02:52.500 Now, it's not sexy.
00:02:54.980 It's not going to draw any action stars.
00:02:57.340 But this rise of the machine could level our country and our world.
00:03:01.080 And you saw a little bit of it yesterday.
00:03:04.620 It could bring the entire world to its knees.
00:03:07.880 The Dow yesterday took another hit, plunging nearly 800 points.
00:03:14.160 Now, it's kind of funny when the market takes a beating.
00:03:17.060 If you flip on the news, what are you going to find?
00:03:20.080 You look at the Internet, what do you find?
00:03:21.720 You'll have an unlimited number of people saying, well, we're looking into what happened.
00:03:26.780 We're not exactly sure what happened.
00:03:28.820 I think it was interest rates.
00:03:30.300 Definitely interest rates.
00:03:31.640 Oh, I believe it was the Trump administration or what they're doing with China.
00:03:36.200 Oh, no.
00:03:36.720 I believe it's the money supply.
00:03:39.300 Purchase power.
00:03:40.500 Okay.
00:03:40.840 Okay.
00:03:41.280 All right.
00:03:42.740 Unicorns playing basketball.
00:03:44.220 I got it.
00:03:44.780 I got it.
00:03:45.460 I got it.
00:03:46.120 Nobody really knows, right?
00:03:50.180 And most likely, it's a combination of things, including those damn unicorns.
00:03:56.280 But here's what I want you to take.
00:03:57.880 There is something coming.
00:04:01.560 Glenn Beck.
00:04:02.740 Gloom and doom.
00:04:03.320 No, no, no, no.
00:04:04.620 It's a recession.
00:04:05.600 They happen.
00:04:06.620 It's a cycle.
00:04:07.840 Everything in life is a cycle.
00:04:09.400 And we are way overdue for a recession.
00:04:12.840 So it is coming, whether it's tomorrow or four years from now.
00:04:17.100 The longer it waits, the deeper it will be.
00:04:20.500 But we're already like two or three years beyond the point where we should have had a recession.
00:04:25.240 Okay.
00:04:26.080 This time when it comes, I think it's going to be bad.
00:04:29.580 I'm not sure how it's going to come, when it's going to come, but it is going to come.
00:04:33.960 But the artificial intelligence algorithms controlling the markets isn't, you know, isn't going off of looks and feels.
00:04:44.980 It's not going off and saying, oh, this could be bad.
00:04:47.640 Oh, I don't know.
00:04:48.700 I feel like it's good.
00:04:50.000 No, no.
00:04:50.960 It's only crunching the numbers in a very cold and calculated way.
00:04:56.360 It doesn't get emotional.
00:04:58.440 You know, like the hero in the Terminator.
00:05:01.600 It can't be reasoned with.
00:05:03.720 It can't be bargained with.
00:05:05.200 You just have to kill it.
00:05:07.300 Okay.
00:05:08.480 This is just an algorithm that is reacting as it was programmed to do.
00:05:15.380 And look what it's learned along the way.
00:05:18.760 AI algorithms now control over 80% of the U.S. stock market.
00:05:23.880 80%.
00:05:24.600 That means men and women are not really, you know, the ones that you always see after a day like yesterday.
00:05:31.340 You're bound to click online or see in a news report one of those pictures of all of the guys on Wall Street, you know, down on the trading floor with a shocked faces with their hand over their mouth.
00:05:41.880 Like, oh, my gosh, this is the worst thing ever.
00:05:44.040 I, oh, my gosh, I think I'm going to jump out of a window.
00:05:46.620 You're going to see that.
00:05:47.640 Okay.
00:05:48.540 But those guys aren't really doing.
00:05:50.180 They're only doing 20% of what happened.
00:05:52.700 80% is a machine.
00:05:55.220 The vast majority of trades are not happening by men and women rapidly handing, you know, giving hand signals.
00:06:00.960 Sell, sell, buy, buy, buy.
00:06:02.520 It's not happening.
00:06:04.740 It's all happening inside of a computer CPU.
00:06:08.500 And this is what the machine saw yesterday.
00:06:10.340 The algorithms have been programmed to look for certain triggers and then buy or sell accordingly.
00:06:17.020 One thing they've learned to take action on is when the odds of a potential recession materialize.
00:06:23.800 Something called the yield curve inversion.
00:06:26.600 When that happens, the algorithms see the odds of a recession go up and they kick in to sell.
00:06:33.440 Okay.
00:06:34.480 That occurred yesterday.
00:06:35.840 As short-term interest rates began trading above long-term interest rates, the two-year and five-year yields inverted, which often happens in times of economic weakness or recession.
00:06:52.640 The Dow lost 3% of its value because it did rebound a bit.
00:06:56.860 And all of it happened based off of a small indicator that artificial intelligence algorithms diagnosed in milliseconds and begin reacting to.
00:07:06.960 So everybody, all the humans still last night were like, I'm not sure what happened.
00:07:11.300 Were the unicorns involved again?
00:07:13.900 No.
00:07:15.180 In milliseconds.
00:07:17.860 The algorithm saw something.
00:07:19.780 Never fear the machines.
00:07:22.600 Fear the programming.
00:07:25.080 Fear the goal.
00:07:26.860 Because it will never miss the goal.
00:07:32.000 You see, back in 1929, and every time we have a major sell-off, what happens?
00:07:37.680 People get involved.
00:07:39.520 And people are like, okay, we've got to bolster the market.
00:07:42.580 We've got to send a signal of feeling that it's going to be great.
00:07:47.160 The algorithms don't care about your feelings.
00:07:52.500 Now, what happens when a much larger event happens?
00:07:54.960 80% of our stock market fate is in the hands of machine learning.
00:08:01.420 And I think this is a good thing.
00:08:04.340 You just need to be prepared for it.
00:08:08.900 Because, you know, and it's going to be hard because, you know, James Cameron is not working on a script to show you how this one ends.
00:08:16.680 Since we started with the rise of the machines, I thought I would take you to a couple of other things.
00:08:31.240 Remember, my theory is that the dark parts of the world, like China, are going to go right into 1984.
00:08:41.580 In case you don't know, George Orwell wrote 1984.
00:08:46.240 It's really kind of a book based on, now this is in contention, but if you read it, you're like, yeah, it seems pretty good.
00:08:54.100 A book came out in 1922 called We.
00:08:57.320 And it's kind of like Anthem, but it's really more like 1984.
00:09:03.740 And we is about a state that just takes over everything.
00:09:08.780 And you will comply.
00:09:11.560 So George Orwell in the 1930s wrote 1984 about a society that is the anti-America and could monitor absolutely everything.
00:09:25.020 And so you dare not step out of line.
00:09:26.940 Well, that's China and their social credit system.
00:09:28.920 They're watching everything and you're not going anywhere.
00:09:32.840 You're not doing anything based on your social scores.
00:09:37.040 It's truly frightening.
00:09:38.800 However, that's not coming here.
00:09:41.900 There was another book that was written and this one by Huxley.
00:09:45.960 And this one was called Brave New World.
00:09:48.360 And back when I was in school, we used to have to read these things called books.
00:09:53.120 And we liked them because we didn't have any of those little fancy boxes that you could keep in your pocket and watch all those damn TV shows on them.
00:10:05.260 So we would read these books.
00:10:09.580 And the debate has always been, is it going to be 1984 or Brave New World?
00:10:14.380 You kids nowadays, you watch shows like, you know, that movie that everybody saw, I think, The Island.
00:10:25.780 No, no, nobody saw that, Grandpa.
00:10:27.580 Nobody saw that.
00:10:29.240 Well, it's the same thing.
00:10:31.360 It's got some of those young'uns in that movie half naked the whole time.
00:10:37.680 The debate was, is it going to be a utopia that we're all just taking so many drugs and everything is presented in such a happy way through consumerism that we just all embrace it?
00:10:57.420 And then before you know it, we're all trapped.
00:10:59.600 Or is it going to be a hostile takeover of a state where they just build a prison and you know they're building a prison?
00:11:08.560 Okay, well, that's what's happening in China.
00:11:10.340 They're building a prison and everybody in China knows they're building a prison.
00:11:14.180 We all know they're building a prison.
00:11:15.840 Why?
00:11:16.060 Because they've just built 1,400 prisons.
00:11:19.280 They've built 1,400 concentration camps where as many as 2 million people have already been disappeared in the middle of the night.
00:11:27.860 Okay, we don't have those.
00:11:31.680 Of course not.
00:11:33.080 We're doing everything for your protection.
00:11:35.940 Brave new world.
00:11:38.000 A brave new world.
00:11:39.460 We are embracing it because it just makes sense.
00:11:43.140 Right?
00:11:44.200 Let me give you two things.
00:11:47.100 There was an announcement yesterday.
00:11:49.880 This comes from MasterCard News.
00:11:53.040 Yes, that credit card company is going to help you out.
00:11:56.580 Along with our friends at Microsoft.
00:12:00.780 Now, this is a story completely unrelated to a story that just also came out that Microsoft has just said that they will give the United States government access to all of their new technology.
00:12:15.640 Well, that's how wonderfully American of them.
00:12:24.380 Isn't that great?
00:12:25.800 America is going to be able to have access to all of Microsoft's programs.
00:12:32.640 That is so patriotic.
00:12:34.500 Listen, I think I can hear a jet flying in formation across the stadium now.
00:12:41.160 Oh, it chokes me up.
00:12:42.780 It's so patriotic.
00:12:44.700 Since when did Microsoft become so patriotic?
00:12:48.660 Okay.
00:12:49.100 Anyway, a question to be answered later.
00:12:51.160 And it definitely has nothing to do with this announcement.
00:12:54.060 From MasterCard News, voting, driving, applying for a job, renting a home, getting married, boarding a plane.
00:13:06.900 What do all these things have in common?
00:13:10.320 Well, MasterCard knows you need to prove your identity.
00:13:12.860 So, in partnership with Microsoft, we are working to create a universally recognized digital identity.
00:13:23.700 Oh, that's fantastic.
00:13:26.520 Oh, so I won't need any kind of ID.
00:13:29.760 Of course, I never will need any ID when I go in to vote, because that's just racist.
00:13:35.260 Well, if I ever need an ID, my credit card company and Microsoft dismiss the story about giving access to the government.
00:13:45.820 They're going to just create this digital ID for me, and they will know everything about everything.
00:13:53.780 Oh, thank goodness.
00:13:55.080 It's going to be so easy.
00:13:56.480 Here, take another pill.
00:13:59.200 It's going to be so easy.
00:14:00.960 Thank you, MasterCard.
00:14:02.960 Thank you, Bill Gates.
00:14:05.260 That's fantastic.
00:14:06.700 Now, if we could just have Common Core that makes absolutely no sense at all, but does monitor the retinal scans of my children,
00:14:18.020 and is constantly watching their eyes so they can track their heartbeat and their blood pressure,
00:14:23.780 and see where they are really not interested, and see where they might disagree with a teacher,
00:14:30.740 just so we can make that teacher a better teacher.
00:14:33.780 Oh, and we can also categorize them so we know very young when we know exactly you should be a gymnast.
00:14:42.360 Come, come.
00:14:43.620 The state will take you to be a gymnast.
00:14:45.960 I'm sure it's not going to work out that way.
00:14:48.340 That's only evil China.
00:14:50.520 This is a happy place.
00:14:52.180 If this doesn't appear to be the exact same social score system without the government involved,
00:15:07.400 and without anybody saying, oh, by the way, we're going to have a social score.
00:15:11.880 This is the same system they're implementing in China with guns.
00:15:18.460 We're doing it and saying, oh, my gosh, MasterCard, you've just made my life so easy.
00:15:24.480 Thank you for that.
00:15:25.780 Now, in a completely unrelated story out of the state of New York,
00:15:32.480 there is a new bill being proposed in the Statehouse of New York,
00:15:38.260 but it's common sense gun control.
00:15:42.520 It would require a firearm, a would-be firearm purchaser,
00:15:46.900 to turn over three years of your social media history.
00:15:52.260 Oh.
00:15:53.640 Well, that seems reasonable because we always do say,
00:15:58.060 gee, if you just watched what they said online, you'd know they were a kook.
00:16:04.040 A three-year review of social media profiles would give an easy profile of a person
00:16:09.420 who is not suitable to hold or possess a firearm.
00:16:13.860 This, according to a New York State senator and proposed legislation.
00:16:20.580 Applicants to purchase a gun would be required to turn over their social media passwords
00:16:25.660 to accounts like Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram.
00:16:31.300 And they would have to allow police to see a year's worth of all of their searches.
00:16:37.260 A year's worth of searches on Google and Yahoo and Bing.
00:16:41.600 Oh, they haven't gotten Jeeves yet.
00:16:44.600 As well as anyone renewing their permit for a pistol would also be subject to this investigation.
00:16:51.540 So every couple of years, you could have the government come in and say,
00:16:55.820 we need to look at your social, turn over all your passwords.
00:16:59.500 Now, I'm only bringing this up because I think it seems a little clunky.
00:17:03.680 Why would I have to turn over all of my passwords when I could just partner with Google and they could tell everybody who I am?
00:17:14.920 After all, Google is doing that in China.
00:17:17.380 And why turn over my passwords?
00:17:20.720 Why have any kind of investigative body looking into who I associate with and everything else when Microsoft and MasterCard will know where I've been, who I visited, how I spend my money?
00:17:35.980 This doesn't sound like the Chinese thing at all.
00:17:42.080 Go back to sleep, America.
00:17:44.060 We're fine.
00:17:45.200 Hey, I know.
00:17:46.160 Let's talk about what Trump tweeted today, because that's so much more important.
00:17:53.060 Here's our sponsor, LifeLock.
00:17:55.420 Biggest breach in in history, biggest breach.
00:18:01.000 Major hotel chain has announced a massive data breach.
00:18:04.860 It only exposed about 500 million customers.
00:18:08.160 So just, you know, almost twice the population of the United States.
00:18:11.460 But that's all.
00:18:12.600 That's all.
00:18:13.680 They got the hotel guest reservation database.
00:18:16.940 It includes name, email addresses, payment information, passport numbers.
00:18:21.320 But unless you used a MasterCard, they don't know anything else.
00:18:28.600 This isn't the first of its kind.
00:18:30.380 Billions of records have been stolen through breaches in recent years.
00:18:34.460 Many included names, addresses, social security numbers and a lot more.
00:18:38.040 That's why you need LifeLock with Norton.
00:18:40.440 LifeLock uses technology that only they have to detect and alert you to a wide range of identity threats.
00:18:47.180 Now, Norton protects your devices against cyber threats like malware or Microsoft.
00:18:53.580 Did I say that a lot?
00:18:55.160 Of course, no one can prevent all identity theft or cyber crime or monitor all transactions at all businesses.
00:19:00.540 But no matter the season, LifeLock with Norton Security is the choice to help you look out for the threats that you're going to miss on your own.

00:19:40.260 Microsoft has deplatformed people.
00:19:42.880 OK, Microsoft.
00:19:45.400 I'm sorry.
00:19:46.160 Sorry.
00:19:46.400 Sorry.
00:19:46.920 MasterCard has deplatformed people.
00:19:49.760 To where what's his name?
00:19:51.880 Robert Spencer.
00:19:53.940 He's a guy who is a scholar on Islam.
00:19:56.720 Ben, you know, a presidential advisor back in the 90s on Islam and says, look, this is what the text says.
00:20:04.660 And this is how it is interpreted in the Middle East.
00:20:07.300 Well, that is just too shocking.
00:20:09.700 How dare you?
00:20:10.860 So he he writes books.
00:20:13.440 He had a podcast.
00:20:14.500 He was deplatformed.
00:20:15.840 And then when he went out on his own, what happened?
00:20:19.820 Well, then MasterCard said, you know what?
00:20:21.960 We're not going to do it.
00:20:23.220 We're not going to take any.
00:20:24.220 If you do business, you buy a book or you're trying to use MasterCard on his site.
00:20:30.680 We don't accept it.
00:20:32.380 And so they deplatformed him.
00:20:34.880 I will tell you right now.
00:20:37.080 And I have to call my wife.
00:20:38.500 I don't think we have any MasterCards.
00:20:41.660 But go through your wallet.
00:20:44.400 If you have a MasterCard, cut it today.
00:20:48.320 Cut it today.
00:20:49.920 They are already knee deep in deplatforming and making decisions for you.
00:20:55.240 This this merger with with Microsoft, where they're going to just have a national idea.
00:21:02.180 Cut your card.
00:21:04.120 MasterCard.
00:21:04.920 Cut it.
00:21:05.460 We welcome to the program, Mr. Pat Gray, who is now heard on the Blaze TV, BlazeTV.com.
00:21:18.640 If you'd like to subscribe, you can hear him on radio for free on Blaze Radio.
00:21:23.100 And you can subscribe to his podcast and also watch him every day on Blaze TV.
00:21:29.840 We've we've we've kind of added a few people since I saw you last week, Pat.
00:21:34.860 Yeah, I noticed that added a few people notice that.
00:21:37.900 So we're really excited.
00:21:39.900 And you can poke around and see what the new Blaze TV is all about.
00:21:45.920 There's just a few voices yet that we have that we haven't put together.
00:21:50.500 I saw Daily Wire with Ben Shapiro and all the boys at Daily Wire.
00:21:55.600 They started their podcast the other day with welcome to the Daily Wire podcast.
00:22:00.420 The only podcast now not owned by Glenn Beck.
00:22:04.100 And I don't own I don't own this stuff.
00:22:08.340 I'm not gobbling people up.
00:22:09.700 I'm inviting people to come and merge with us.
00:22:12.960 We have a great we just have this great system to where you get, you know, you do your thing.
00:22:19.080 We do our thing.
00:22:19.920 We just stand together.
00:22:20.940 So we're not killing each other and we're not killed by outside forces, because I think trouble is really is coming.
00:22:29.220 I'm going to talk a little bit about France here in just a few minutes and this global warming thing.
00:22:33.420 There's something wrong.
00:22:34.600 And let me ask you, Pat.
00:22:37.500 Why was global warming so huge in the early zeros?
00:22:43.080 OK, and then after about 2008, it just kind of went away.
00:22:48.960 And then 2010, 2012, nobody's talking about it.
00:22:53.180 All of the wicked predictions of if we don't do something by this date in 2012, it's too late.
00:23:01.840 And it all just dissipated and went away.
00:23:05.420 Yeah.
00:23:05.840 And then all of a sudden it is there's everybody is saying this is we are running out of time.
00:23:13.440 This is the worst thing.
00:23:14.920 Humanity, all humanity will be gone if we don't do something right now.
00:23:19.360 Yeah, it's back and it's worse than it's ever been.
00:23:21.660 Why?
00:23:21.920 Um, I because I think because they lost some momentum maybe after 2008 when there weren't as many frequent, more intense hurricanes and tornadoes and a lot of the predictions weren't coming through and there was the pause in the warming and maybe it was harder to sell.
00:23:43.280 Try this on for size.
00:23:46.060 You know how China is is building a cage right now for the Chinese people.
00:23:50.580 OK, for the Muslims, Christians, everybody in the whole society.
00:23:55.840 China is going to be a cage by 2020.
00:24:01.660 This is the largest transfer of wealth ever in the history of mankind.
00:24:07.140 Already, it's been happening, but even more so with global warming.
00:24:11.620 It's just a giant transfer of wealth.
00:24:13.640 And while there is wealth, transfer it and build the cage that the French people are now feeling.
00:24:20.580 They're now feeling, look, the people who are being hurt are little people, not the big guys.
00:24:24.800 Big guys are fine.
00:24:26.220 It's the little people.
00:24:28.060 So take the money while there's money to be had.
00:24:31.940 Build the cage under the global warming thing.
00:24:35.320 I mean, yeah, I think I think global leadership is afraid of their own.
00:24:40.240 They're afraid of their own people.
00:24:41.720 Yeah, it's possible.
00:24:42.740 And I think that the global warming, the green is the new red.
00:24:46.960 I mean, it's the communism of this particular generation.
00:24:51.600 And it's the way they're getting communism done in a lot of different places.
00:24:55.420 And they just said the U.N. climate chief just said we're going to have to completely transform our economies and our societies in order to stop the global warming catastrophe.
00:25:06.740 Well, what is that?
00:25:09.360 So you're going to transform the free market into what socialism, communism, the green technology that's going to replace the free market system.
00:25:18.720 And look, the free market system has done more to help global warming than any communist.
00:25:24.780 Look at China.
00:25:25.480 It's a mess.
00:25:26.700 Yeah.
00:25:26.840 And even even all of the solar panels that the government paid for, all those guys are out of business.
00:25:32.180 The vault, the vault was setting people on fire.
00:25:36.440 Yeah, they're shutting it down next year.
00:25:37.880 Yet Tesla, even though Tesla was a bailout or, you know, got government money.
00:25:43.740 Still, it's it's a private idea, not not done by, you know, a giant corporation in bed with the global warming stuff.
00:25:53.020 It was new technology that I think just what he did.
00:25:58.740 He let all of those plans out online.
00:26:02.560 He more than paid for it by saying, I'm not taking any patent.
00:26:06.360 Take it.
00:26:07.800 Take it.
00:26:09.780 But you look at the Tesla now, the Tesla, everybody says, oh, it's green.
00:26:14.960 It's green.
00:26:15.300 It's green.
00:26:15.640 No, the new cars that are being built now, gasoline engine cars have in the end less emissions than even a Tesla.
00:26:27.720 Because you're still plugging it in and it's a coal fire plant.
00:26:30.600 Right.
00:26:31.200 And on top of it, the emissions that it takes to make those cars as compared to what we're now using to make a regular gasoline engine.
00:26:39.380 It's actually worse for the economy.
00:26:41.500 Yeah.
00:26:41.580 Not to mention the batteries and what happens with those afterwards.
00:26:44.760 Right.
00:26:45.520 It's their environmental disasters.
00:26:47.860 Correct.
00:26:48.540 And it's interesting to me, too.
00:26:49.820 You mentioned the French.
00:26:51.260 These people have been conditioned far more than America has to be accepting of things like a carbon tax.
00:26:57.580 And look how they responded to it when it actually came down the line and they were actually given a carbon tax.
00:27:03.940 They set the country on fire.
00:27:06.540 They they rise up and start burning the place down to the ground because they don't want to pay a carbon tax.
00:27:12.980 And this only makes Donald Trump smart, stronger.
00:27:16.800 Oh, I think so.
00:27:17.420 I mean, the comment he had yesterday was right.
00:27:20.320 Oh, it looks like the people of France agree with me more than you.
00:27:23.000 Yep.
00:27:23.360 He got out of the club.
00:27:25.000 You know?
00:27:25.720 Yes.
00:27:26.760 Yeah.
00:27:27.000 And and then the UN summit is emitting.
00:27:32.500 I mean, this just shows how these people don't even they don't even respect or believe their own nonsense.
00:27:38.680 No.
00:27:39.520 When when the climate industry gets together and they start emitting more CO2 than eighty two hundred American homes combined in a year for this one week conference.
00:27:52.380 And that doesn't include the thousands of people flying to get there.
00:27:56.260 That just includes at the summit itself after they're already there.
00:28:00.920 And how many of them have flown in on private jets?
00:28:03.220 It's it's all travel, all of them, all of them.
00:28:07.180 So it's it's more it is more CO2 than eighty two hundred American homes give off in a year.
00:28:17.080 And we're supposed to believe that you believe this is catastrophic.
00:28:21.580 There's no way you act this way when you if it's catastrophic.
00:28:24.200 No.
00:28:24.640 When you say this is catastrophic, you set an example.
00:28:28.240 You don't go to the beach.
00:28:30.060 You don't go this on the Internet.
00:28:31.740 You do it on the Internet.
00:28:32.700 You now have holographic virtual reality.
00:28:35.660 You could go to Facebook and say, hey, I want virtual reality conferences and everyone can plug in Facebook or Oculus or whoever.
00:28:43.500 They would love that.
00:28:44.800 Hey, the whole world can watch.
00:28:46.500 You can all be there.
00:28:47.800 It's going to be the first big global summit.
00:28:49.900 But everyone is invited and you have to spend nothing.
00:28:53.880 You're not catering events.
00:28:54.840 You're not flying people in.
00:28:56.600 No, you're not doing hotels.
00:28:58.640 You're not doing any of that.
00:28:59.740 You're not driving.
00:29:00.240 You're not driving from the hotel to the conference.
00:29:03.020 Right.
00:29:03.320 You can do it in the comfort of your own office right now.
00:29:05.860 You can watch it.
00:29:06.520 You can participate.
00:29:07.400 And if you really believed that we're on the verge of catastrophe, isn't that how you'd be acting?
00:29:12.200 I would.
00:29:13.360 If I really believe that the planet is on the brink of complete disaster.
00:29:17.080 There's no way I'm doing a conference like this that burns that kind of CO2.
00:29:20.500 No way.
00:29:21.600 So, complete hypocrisy.
00:29:24.420 It's a total...
00:29:26.020 To me, that's the scam.
00:29:28.400 Because they know better.
00:29:29.520 They know that this is not where they say it is.
00:29:32.320 But again, I go back to why.
00:29:34.500 Why is this happening now?
00:29:37.880 Because you can see how unpopular it is.
00:29:42.080 It doesn't take a genius to figure out.
00:29:46.560 If I start raising taxes and I start hurting the economy with a plan like this, the people are going to rise up.
00:29:53.920 So, why, when you are already struggling as a Democratic Party or whatever, and all around the world, as you're already struggling, why is it that they continue to push forward with this?
00:30:07.640 Money, right?
00:30:09.040 I mean, it's always money, isn't it?
00:30:10.680 Money and power.
00:30:12.880 But with a very short...
00:30:13.800 Al Gore is going to be a climate billionaire.
00:30:17.020 Very shortly.
00:30:17.700 Correct.
00:30:18.180 But there are those who are on the front lines, the politicians, the political parties all around the world, that have to win elections.
00:30:27.460 At some point, you've got to say, we're not going to win an election next time.
00:30:31.840 So, our money is being cut off.
00:30:34.900 There's got to be...
00:30:35.780 There's more to this.
00:30:38.560 Because human just survival instincts for the politicians and the parties start to kick in.
00:30:48.180 You know what?
00:30:48.640 No, let's not talk about that.
00:30:50.200 Let's not talk about that.
00:30:51.700 Social Security.
00:30:52.520 I want to cut your Social Security.
00:30:54.300 GOP.
00:30:54.920 Forever.
00:30:55.440 No, we're not talking about that.
00:30:56.740 No, no, no.
00:30:57.300 Your Social Security is safe.
00:30:58.700 Why?
00:30:59.000 Third rail.
00:31:00.780 This is being shown as a third rail all around the world.
00:31:04.220 You touch this in Europe, you're dead.
00:31:08.140 They'll rise up against you.
00:31:09.420 They'll set your country on fire.
00:31:10.760 Because it doesn't work.
00:31:12.480 The people don't want it.
00:31:14.000 Brexit.
00:31:14.300 You don't think the people are going to rise up?
00:31:18.560 They voted.
00:31:19.520 Get out.
00:31:20.180 Get out of the EU.
00:31:21.880 They're giving them two options.
00:31:23.660 You can get out.
00:31:25.200 But you're not really your own country.
00:31:28.640 You can't do anything with anybody else.
00:31:31.220 What?
00:31:32.040 Or you can be like Sweden and Switzerland.
00:31:34.220 And you can trade with Mexico freely.
00:31:37.140 But not the United States.
00:31:39.860 Not even what you don't think the people of Europe and of the UK when they see this, when
00:31:49.360 they can't get out.
00:31:50.680 OK, you can get out of the EU, but you still have to take all the immigrants we tell you
00:31:55.060 to.
00:31:56.300 Excuse me.
00:31:58.180 You don't think that they're going to rise up.
00:32:00.780 These guys, the politicians are either so brain dead and so, so far away from the people,
00:32:09.740 which is possible.
00:32:10.560 But we are entering a let them eat cake moment to where I don't think that was, you know,
00:32:17.540 oh, piss on the poor.
00:32:18.920 Let them eat cake.
00:32:19.800 There was so.
00:32:20.780 First of all, she never said it.
00:32:21.900 But if it was what it meant was she was surrounded by cake.
00:32:27.720 She was surrounded by food.
00:32:29.460 They don't have any bread.
00:32:30.700 Well, let them eat cake.
00:32:32.160 There's plenty of cake.
00:32:34.060 Right.
00:32:34.680 That's how out of touch.
00:32:36.160 And we're back into that position.
00:32:43.100 Thrilled to be here and thrilled to have you listening to us.
00:32:45.940 Thank you so much for your support.
00:32:48.220 Thank you so much for your your just lending an ear every day.
00:32:55.160 We know you have lots and lots of choices and in very little time.
00:32:59.040 And I and I strive to make your time well spent.
00:33:02.940 So thank you very much for for being with us today.
00:33:05.920 I'm going to talk about a something really, I think, important that is happening now in
00:33:11.800 Turkey.
00:33:12.660 But you're seeing signs of it here in the United States.
00:33:15.240 In fact, in Austin, you have the same thing happening and it's it is concerning.
00:33:24.280 And there are some things that there are some things that you can do that will protect you.
00:33:29.320 But now is the time to protect yourself and to start to position yourself for the future.
00:33:39.700 The next few years are going to be a little difficult, I think.
00:33:44.720 And it's natural.
00:33:46.900 And the whole world is going to be repositioned.
00:33:50.400 I don't think we recognize our world.
00:33:53.000 Now, I've said this to you in 2002, and I don't think people really believed me at all.
00:34:00.820 I said, there's going to come a time when you won't recognize your country anymore.
00:34:03.820 Now, if you happen to be old enough to remember what the country was like in 2002, tell me it's
00:34:10.520 the same country.
00:34:11.280 It's not.
00:34:12.840 And we're just getting to a point now to where you really don't recognize it.
00:34:17.140 The things just don't work the way they used to.
00:34:19.200 We just don't.
00:34:20.560 It's just completely different.
00:34:21.820 I think the change is going to be even more impactful by 2030.
00:34:29.520 You will not recognize your country.
00:34:32.060 You will not recognize the world.
00:34:34.160 I don't think you'll recognize the maps by 2030.
00:34:38.620 And we need to prepare so we can be a shelter for our families and for others.
00:34:44.860 And we can be calm and cool and collected.
00:34:47.500 And there is there are some things that are happening right now that are going to put a lot of Americans behind the eight ball that you need to make sure you don't do.
00:34:58.860 And we'll give you some of those things and the real significant of the French tax revolt for the very first time.
00:35:06.700 I saw an article that was talking about the French and it said, and it's not just France.
00:35:15.480 It's spreading to Belgium and the Netherlands, it's spreading to Belgium and the Netherlands, and it is the building of a European spring.
00:35:23.340 Well, somebody knows their history, and I'm glad to have somebody join us on the European spring.
00:35:28.900 Something from we've been talking about for a long time, 1848 European spring communist manifesto is is published.
00:35:35.720 All the communists get together and say we can change the world.
00:35:38.640 And they so unrest throughout Europe.
00:35:42.900 It didn't work, thank God, but it was it was to topple all of Europe and it could have worked.
00:35:50.700 And if you don't know history, it will work the Arab spring when in the coming days, months and years, you are going to hear about the European spring and people think, oh, that's named after the Arab spring.
00:36:04.140 No, the Arab spring was named after the first European spring, which was a communist overthrow or an attempt to overthrow Europe.
00:36:14.780 The last line in this article is what we see in Paris today might be the end of social democracy as we know it.
00:36:25.020 What's taking place is for the battlefield of ideas and where we go from here.
00:36:32.120 It's much bigger.
00:36:33.840 And this this show is is dedicated to preparing you for what may be.
00:36:43.180 Because we have a good enough track record that I think maybe, you know, people might want to at least consider the options.
00:36:52.160 Mercury.
00:36:55.680 I want to tell you about Relief Factor.
00:36:58.420 Now, for four years, Relief Factor has been kind of floating around this building and people have been taking it and people who have back pain and, you know, sports injuries and, you know, like me, the old war injury.
00:37:08.320 And and I haven't taken it because honestly, and I'm being real straight with it, it's all natural.
00:37:14.500 And I'm and I always think, oh, really?
00:37:16.440 Oh, let's get some Chinese medicine in here.
00:37:18.040 If I just had, you know, the crushed horn of a rhino, we'd be fine.
00:37:21.880 This is actually started by doctors and it reduces inflammation.
00:37:25.400 And I'm here to tell you, I took it about a year ago.
00:37:29.660 And they say, just try it for two weeks.
00:37:31.400 If it doesn't work, you know, out 20 bucks.
00:37:33.360 If it does work, you get your life back.
00:37:34.880 Boy, that is so true.
00:37:36.100 Seventy percent of the people who start taking it for two weeks, go back and order more just like I did because it does work.
00:37:41.380 It's Relief Factor dot com.
00:37:43.240 The natural way to relieve your pain.
00:37:45.640 Relief Factor dot com.
00:37:48.120 Try it now.
00:37:49.680 Glenn Beck.
00:37:51.040 OK, it's kind of de-escalated quickly.
00:37:54.900 Michael Avenatti, lawyer of Stormy Daniels, announced that he is not going to run for president in 2020.
00:38:00.800 Oh, my.
00:38:01.640 Oh, my gosh.
00:38:02.840 That takes the number of Democrats planning to challenge Trump down to around 723, I think.
00:38:09.680 In a statement, Avenatti said he would still run, but he's decided not to out of respect for his family's concerns.
00:38:16.160 Like maybe he gets pissed and starts punching them.
00:38:18.440 I'm not sure.
00:38:19.280 He didn't list what their concerns was, but he did say we will not prevail in 2020 without a fighter.
00:38:25.920 I remain I remain hopeful the party finds one and I'm a fighter.
00:38:30.480 You know, when you're when you're accused of domestic abuse, you probably shouldn't go out on the fighting speech.
00:38:36.340 Now, if you're wondering who the most qualified person is to take the Democrats to success.
00:38:41.680 Well, we now know it's former Vice President Joe Biden.
00:38:45.360 How do we know?
00:38:47.640 Because Joe and Joe told us he was he had a bookstop in Montana and a 76 year old said, I'm read 20.
00:38:56.380 I'm about two months away from that 2020 bid.
00:38:59.360 And I'm Lunchbox Joe.
00:39:00.760 Even though the kids nowadays like socialism, don't know what a lunchbox is, but we used to have them and I liked them.
00:39:07.180 My grand beppy, he made a lunchbox out of sand, dirt and grass.
00:39:12.040 And I had that my whole life until I went to Congress.
00:39:14.960 Of course, they all worked in the coal mine.
00:39:17.460 No, they didn't.
00:39:18.520 He said, I'm definitely running.
00:39:20.020 So get out your checkbooks.
00:39:21.220 Why would I get out my checkbook?
00:39:24.340 Biden admitted I am a gaffe machine, but my God, what a wonderful thing compared to a guy who can't tell the truth.
00:39:31.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:39:33.660 But I think that's kind of you, too, Joe.
00:39:36.380 When Biden ran for president in 1987, he was pulling ahead of the Democratic pack until, you know, he got a little snag of not telling the truth.
00:39:45.280 He got caught lifting entire sections of a speech by Neil Kinnick, a British party, a British Labour Party candidate who ran against Margaret Thatcher for prime minister.
00:39:57.620 And, you know, it's not that he just lifted parts of the lifted parts of the speech.
00:40:02.680 He actually lifted and copied exact sections of this guy's speech where it talked about his relatives, you know, working in the coal mines over over in the UK.
00:40:17.840 And so he's like, and my grandpappy was a coal miner.
00:40:21.240 No, he really wasn't.
00:40:22.460 That was the guy in England.
00:40:23.660 And he really didn't seem to have a problem with any with any of that.
00:40:29.560 So, you know, you might have a problem with a little bit of the truth.
00:40:33.540 Now, he probably would have gotten away with it and he thought he could because it's pre Internet.
00:40:38.520 But Michael Dukakis, remember that fabulous leader?
00:40:43.160 Michael Dukakis saw a tape of the speech and then put a side by side comparison video of Biden's plagiarizing and sent it to the New York Times.
00:40:51.180 And even back then in a newspaper, in a newspaper, the side by side video comparisons worked.
00:40:57.980 As the reporters dug further in the story, they also found out that he had lifted large portions of speeches by Robert Kennedy and Hubert Humphrey.
00:41:07.720 So it wasn't good.
00:41:09.680 It wasn't good.
00:41:10.180 And that led Biden to say, oh, by the way, I did get an F in school in law school because I had one of my my final papers.
00:41:17.800 And I and I lifted five pages of one of my final papers.
00:41:22.980 And so I got an F and then he was caught into more lies about his academic credentials.
00:41:27.700 And, you know, it's just kind of gone off the rails for there.
00:41:30.420 But just concentrate on that.
00:41:31.960 He is he is lunchbox Joe, because that's really who he is.
00:41:36.700 The most the most qualified person in the country to be president.
00:41:44.040 It's Wednesday, December 5th.
00:41:49.560 You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.
00:41:53.380 Mr. Andrew Wilkow is joining us now.
00:41:58.000 Andrew was one of our founding one of our founding talents at the Blaze TV.
00:42:03.480 I think, Andrew, when you were there, it was GB TV, was it not?
00:42:06.920 Yeah, well, I was a guest.
00:42:07.980 I joined Real News after the name was changed to the Blaze and then shortly after being a panelist on the Blaze, you guys elevated me to to my own program and I became part of the primetime lineup.
00:42:20.720 So, yes, yes, yes.
00:42:22.760 I was part of the original circle of people.
00:42:26.360 Yeah, because we had we had a setup for you up in New York and everything.
00:42:31.500 And we're thrilled that you're back.
00:42:33.340 You left and joined CRTV and been doing a bang up job on CRTV.
00:42:38.400 And now you're back into the fold and something that is, you know, bigger and better.
00:42:43.000 And I think I think, you know, there was a story.
00:42:46.580 You will appreciate this, Andrew.
00:42:48.160 There's a story, I think, in Vanity Fair about how Vox and all of these all these big media companies, Vice, all of these Internet companies, they just couldn't make a go of it.
00:42:59.400 And they're all they're all shutting down because nobody will merge.
00:43:03.960 And it's a lot tougher to do Internet stuff than we thought.
00:43:08.060 You think?
00:43:08.840 No, look, I said this when you joined me yesterday that, you know, people thought you were crazy to leave a major national network with all of the bells and whistles and and and resources.
00:43:23.400 And I remember I said it to you then I said it to you yesterday.
00:43:26.440 I'll say, you know, I thought you were crazy, too, but I wanted to be part of it.
00:43:29.840 I was like, this man is out of his mind and whatever he's doing, that's where I'm going.
00:43:33.960 So anyway, so it's great to be in the family together.
00:43:36.540 Let's let's talk a little bit about the news.
00:43:40.000 A couple of things come to mind.
00:43:41.500 Let's let's start with Joe Biden and and the the elections that are coming in 2020.
00:43:47.820 And I would as much as I'd like to hear you talk about the Democrats, feel free if you want to.
00:43:53.060 I would like to hear what your thoughts are on the GOP.
00:43:55.720 If you're going to run on a record, you kind of have to have one.
00:44:00.000 You and I toured this country together with FreedomWorks.
00:44:03.460 And we went we went to bat for Dr.
00:44:08.000 Greg Brannon, Matt Bevin, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Mike Lee, you name it.
00:44:13.920 We traverse the country for these these conservatives who believe in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution, limited government, all that stuff that we talk about all the time.
00:44:24.140 Every single GOP member ran on cutting taxes, cutting the budget, repealing Obamacare, securing the border.
00:44:32.100 Then once they got power, they turned around to people like us and said, well, hold on.
00:44:37.160 We have to be pragmatic.
00:44:38.620 You're going to have to give us some time.
00:44:40.240 And my first thought was the Democrats never do that to their base.
00:44:43.540 They may order their response to demands of activists.
00:44:46.980 You start with a takeover of health care and you end up at transgender bathrooms.
00:44:51.420 But they get there.
00:44:52.700 This Republican leadership delivered on nothing.
00:44:55.960 Yes, they cut taxes.
00:44:57.360 That was nice.
00:44:58.380 Thank you for letting us keep it.
00:44:59.580 It wasn't.
00:45:00.080 Honestly, it wasn't.
00:45:01.720 It wasn't stunning.
00:45:03.360 You know, that's not Trump's fault.
00:45:05.000 He would assign anything.
00:45:05.840 Yeah, it wasn't it wasn't something where we could say, oh, my God, for the eight years of hard work, starting with the Tea Party, we've got this fundamental transformation of the tax code.
00:45:18.040 We're going to have a flat tax and the states are going to pick up what they need to run what they want at the state level.
00:45:23.020 We got we got some money in our pocket, but they spent more than the Democrats ever did.
00:45:27.600 They didn't fund the border wall.
00:45:29.160 Whether you agree with it or not, they all ran on it.
00:45:31.100 The Democrats eventually will deliver on their promises for their base, whereas the Republicans tell us to sit down and be quiet until the next time they need our programs, our audiences and the and the activists in the base of the party to deliver them victories.
00:45:46.400 Imagine, Andrew, if Donald Trump weren't president.
00:45:50.960 It was Hillary and the caravan came to our gate.
00:45:55.420 They would have opened the borders, even though right now she is across the you know, across the ocean and she's in Europe and she's like, oh, boy, that immigration thing.
00:46:05.280 Boy, that that didn't work out well.
00:46:06.740 That was probably a mistake.
00:46:08.140 Probably.
00:46:09.460 Yeah.
00:46:10.400 And they would.
00:46:11.240 They're going to do the same thing if we don't get real lasting security and the GOP.
00:46:17.480 They have a few more weeks to do it.
00:46:19.460 They've now punted the they are going to.
00:46:22.260 They're not going to.
00:46:22.860 They're not going to.
00:46:23.700 You know, they're not going to.
00:46:24.660 They're not going to.
00:46:25.120 They could.
00:46:25.860 Why would they do something the lame duck they didn't?
00:46:28.200 They didn't do when they had when the iron was hot.
00:46:31.260 What's their motivation at this point?
00:46:34.880 I don't know, to not be terrible human beings.
00:46:38.580 Do you remember me sitting on set with you in Texas and you said to me something to the effect of talk me down from the ledge on Mitt Romney?
00:46:45.680 And I said, he's not a communist.
00:46:47.560 Right.
00:46:48.300 That was all I could.
00:46:49.160 That was all I could write.
00:46:50.680 He's not the communist.
00:46:51.900 I know.
00:46:52.140 And I had that.
00:46:53.040 He had that as well.
00:46:54.860 That was kind of where I was.
00:46:57.700 You know, what's sad about the about the about the migrant crisis is that this is something that nobody talks about, especially in Democrat circles that we sent for the last year available.
00:47:07.800 Well, two hundred ninety seven million dollars to Guatemala, one hundred and twenty seven million to Honduras.
00:47:11.780 And we're doing those packages almost annually.
00:47:14.360 If you look up on USAID's website, it's actually a very good website for a government site.
00:47:18.800 Not two hundred ninety seven million to veterans, not two hundred ninety seven million to failing school districts, not two hundred ninety seven million for our own infrastructure, beloved infrastructure to these other countries.
00:47:28.360 And we're being told they're fleeing poverty and violence.
00:47:31.200 Well, the USAID website breaks down almost to the dollar how much we spend on infrastructure, how much we spend on health care, education, civil society, governance, law enforcement.
00:47:41.440 And I have not heard any credible voice in the Congress, Republican or Democrat.
00:47:46.600 The president's mentioned it, but not in Congress of, hey, why are we sending the money there if the people are coming here?
00:47:52.680 If we've sent the money to comfort them, to better them, to improve their lot in life there, why are the people coming here?
00:48:00.060 And my only conclusion is it's a win win for these governments.
00:48:03.340 We send them the money.
00:48:04.380 They send us the people.
00:48:05.400 They keep the money.
00:48:06.240 Don't have to spend it on the people.
00:48:07.560 They come here.
00:48:08.360 We give them health care.
00:48:09.420 We find them a job.
00:48:10.620 We give them education.
00:48:11.940 It's a win win if you're the government of Honduras.
00:48:14.580 I completely agree with you.
00:48:16.880 And I would if I were Donald Trump and I'm I'm I'm really disappointed that we haven't done this.
00:48:22.680 I would cut off every dime.
00:48:24.160 Look, I'll help you, but you are not to send your people here.
00:48:28.920 As far as Mexico is concerned, they allowed that caravan to continue to go.
00:48:33.660 They were breaking Mexican laws.
00:48:35.880 They still are.
00:48:37.340 Turn that caravan around.
00:48:39.000 And I don't know why we haven't gotten tough and just said, OK, guys, we shouldn't be dealing with this.
00:48:44.660 This is your problem.
00:48:45.880 Mexico, you let them come through your country.
00:48:48.760 Honduras, you don't get a dime from us.
00:48:50.900 You're going to you're not going to stop people.
00:48:53.680 We're cutting you off.
00:48:55.400 Well, but when we talk about the generosity of America, we can argue back and forth about foreign aid.
00:49:00.500 But haven't we done what what is it that we haven't done for the people of these countries?
00:49:05.320 This is this is so, you know, we can we can separate the European question about migration.
00:49:11.920 We have been giving these countries these people that we see that are desperate, that are following voices, that are telling them.
00:49:18.120 And, you know, it's really sick, Glenn.
00:49:19.880 I know you know this.
00:49:21.200 This is the worst epidemic of Alinsky, Cloward, Piven, whatever you want to call it.
00:49:26.980 These poor people are just the there's the only person that benefits from community organizing is the organizer.
00:49:34.040 Barack Obama's got a sixty five million dollar book deal.
00:49:36.320 And the South Side of Chicago is the South Side of Chicago.
00:49:39.700 These people are being used by people who are furthering their own political agenda and credibility.
00:49:46.320 And it's sick.
00:49:47.360 It is it is sickening to watch the images of women carrying children looking for an end to this.
00:49:55.680 And they're being led by people who know darn well this is not how you file an asylum claim.
00:50:00.980 This is not how you immigrate.
00:50:02.700 This is not how it's done.
00:50:03.860 They have to know these people are rotten and they're evil.
00:50:07.740 Tell me your take quickly on on Mueller, what we found out yesterday about Flynn and what next year looks like.
00:50:14.540 Well, for a guy that allegedly colluded with the Russian government, you know, having calls with Sergei Kislyak as the incoming national security advisor over certain global sanctions, if that is the root of collusion with Russia, no jail time sounds pretty good for a guy who's such a rogue agent.
00:50:33.700 And by the way, why aren't we looking at Claire McCaskill's very tight relationship with Sergei Kislyak?
00:50:39.860 If business in Russia, the Moscow Tower is some smoke and fire of criminality, why aren't the Podestas and by virtue of that Clinton who took $500,000 to go speak to Putin's bank?
00:50:52.380 Why is this?
00:50:53.560 Look, if you want to have a sense of law and order and fairness and say we have to make sure our political class is on the up and up, you can't say it's OK when they do it.
00:51:03.160 You can't say that we're going to ignore the fact that Hillary Clinton was deleting emails.
00:51:07.880 We're going to ignore the fact she was destroying devices and evidence.
00:51:11.500 We're going to ignore the fact that people got their eyes on classified information like Anthony Weiner.
00:51:16.760 And we're going to say, but, you know, somebody wanted to go to Trump Tower and meet with Don Jr.
00:51:22.460 to lobby over the Majitsky Act.
00:51:24.420 That's it.
00:51:25.080 The president, he has to be impeached.
00:51:27.180 Yeah, it's and I think this is what people are missing because they immediately you say that and people on the left will immediately jump to all.
00:51:35.360 That's what about ism?
00:51:36.940 No, it's really not.
00:51:39.360 You know, but it is basic fairness, which I I thought the left was all about.
00:51:45.800 You can't say I'm going to apply the law this time, but not last time or not the next time.
00:51:51.580 It has to be blind.
00:51:53.620 Justice must be blind.
00:51:55.500 And I think that's all that the American people want is just can we just apply these things equally?
00:52:01.740 And it's so it's so ironic to me that people are coming to our border who are fleeing chaos in their own own countries.
00:52:11.120 They say they're fleeing it because they can't work.
00:52:14.000 They can't have a job and they have no chance because there is no equal justice system.
00:52:19.800 And they're coming here.
00:52:22.460 They're asking us to break the law, which would create what they had.
00:52:27.400 And on top of it, we are allowing both sides, Democrats and Republicans.
00:52:31.760 We are allowing our country to become a klepocracy where it's it's just the thieves that are running it.
00:52:43.020 I got something you're going to love and it's going to scare you at the same time.
00:52:45.500 I know you're a big fan of investigative journalism and documentary journalism.
00:52:51.460 This is a first for me.
00:52:52.780 And we did this.
00:52:53.820 We produced this before we even knew that there was going to be a coming together of the CRTV and Blaze Universe.
00:53:00.500 OK, hang on, hang on, hang on.
00:53:01.400 If you have a second, let me do it.
00:53:02.520 Let me take a break and then I'll come back and you tell me about it.
00:53:04.780 Hang on, Andrew Wilkow now on Blaze TV, along with I don't even know, 40 other people.
00:53:13.580 There's just very few voices that aren't part of Blaze TV.
00:53:17.040 And we invite those other voices who are out in the cold to come on in and join us.
00:53:21.580 The weather here is fine.
00:53:23.440 Now, let's let's talk about the things that you can and cannot change.
00:53:29.380 There are things that you, you know, you can change things that you can put off.
00:53:34.760 One of the things that you should not put off now is home security.
00:53:37.940 Don't put this off.
00:53:39.020 Protect yourself.
00:53:39.980 Protect your home.
00:53:41.280 Things are changing.
00:53:42.120 And I recommend simply safe home security with simply safe.
00:53:46.080 You don't have to pay a middleman.
00:53:47.380 You don't have to schedule a six hour installation window.
00:53:50.360 You don't have time for that.
00:53:52.200 Simply safe home security is yours.
00:53:53.840 And it's gotten rid of all of the reasons not to get home security.
00:53:57.020 And you can save a buttload of money, which I think is one of the reasons why people don't get home security.
00:54:03.120 There are no contracts, no markups, no installation windows, nothing.
00:54:08.900 This is the new way to protect your home.
00:54:11.620 And it feels good to have professional quality home security with 24 hour professional monitoring for $14 and 99 cents a month.
00:54:20.260 Home security, the simple way, the simply safe way.
00:54:25.020 They're going to help you save hundreds of dollars this holiday.

00:54:42.020 We're going to talk about the funeral of George Bush here in just a minute.
00:54:50.580 We're on with Andrew Wilkow, who is now a member of Blaze TV.
00:54:54.880 We have merged with CRTV, in case you haven't heard.
00:54:57.640 If you have a subscription to both, doesn't matter which one you cancel, but it's now half the cost.
00:55:02.280 And we're thrilled to have all of their talent and all of our talent getting together and forming one entity, the Blaze TV.
00:55:08.880 Andrew, tell me about this documentary that you did, Investigative Journalism.
00:55:15.980 Yeah, it's a first for me.
00:55:19.680 We sent a camera crew down to the border, and we interviewed former law enforcement officials, many of whom we had to obscure.
00:55:29.740 And what they will tell you, and this is what's really frightening, and it starts at the border, and it goes to small towns throughout the Midwest.
00:55:38.740 The documentary series, Two Particle, Cartel in the Heartland, Cartel in the Heartland, shows how Hezbollah and Hamas have gotten into an unholy alliance with the human smuggling and drug cartels.
00:55:51.680 The terrorist organizations have found the border so porous and profit to be made to be sent back for their activities in the Middle East and some even in the United States that they've entered into this agreement where the terrorist organizations are teaching the cartels about explosives, weapons, providing weapons.
00:56:12.700 They are wholly involved now in the drug trade and the human smuggling trade at the border.
00:56:20.600 And this is making its way to small towns where small town police departments, with their budgets and limited resources, are not able to keep up with the influx of gang activity.
00:56:30.940 And you are going to be shocked when you hear some of these people.
00:56:34.920 Think of it like this, Glenn, and your audience can really think about it like this.
00:56:39.360 Try to imagine how drugs get into prisons.
00:56:43.160 Try to imagine the kind of things that we know go on in the prison system under the watch of the guards, the warden, the state, what have you.
00:56:52.220 Put that on steroids, that there are people on the border on our side as well that we think are the good guys that are making money by enabling this unholy alliance between Hamas, Hezbollah, MS-13, Los Zetas, you name it.
00:57:08.900 All right.
00:57:09.080 They have found, yes.
00:57:10.400 So I'm sorry to cut you off.
00:57:11.760 I just have to go to the break.
00:57:13.360 I understand.
00:57:14.080 Cartel in the Heartland?
00:57:16.020 Yes.
00:57:16.420 Two-part series.
00:57:17.460 First part airs tomorrow.
00:57:19.400 Okay.

00:57:47.240 There's some really important things that you have to be prepared for.
00:57:53.660 I want to talk to you about the economy and what is coming and what we're seeing all around the world in credit and also what we're seeing in France.
00:58:03.920 We have Jason Patrills with us.
00:58:06.260 He's the chief researcher for our program and really kind of follows the events of the world in military intelligence and kind of my guy to go to that just watches all of these things for me.
00:58:22.040 And I sent you something this morning, Jason, about the collapse of social democracies around the world.
00:58:30.320 It's a heck of a statement right there.
00:58:31.920 It is.
00:58:32.780 It is.
00:58:33.640 It is.
00:58:34.240 And I'm glad not to be the only one saying it now.
00:58:36.120 Right.
00:58:36.260 But this guy said that what we're what we're seeing now is what's coming is the European spring, which I haven't heard anyone say except us.
00:58:47.160 Yeah.
00:58:47.380 And you mentioned Brexit earlier with Pat.
00:58:49.620 And I mean, really, like talk about the collapse of democracy.
00:58:54.300 If you right now, there's basically saying that our democratic process doesn't mean squat.
00:58:58.720 If the elected officials that are already there don't agree with what the people think.
00:59:02.780 Like that was a referendum that, you know, they could have they didn't have to go to the people on that.
00:59:07.800 They didn't have to go to the people on that.
00:59:08.900 But they said, look, we're going to put it all in your hands.
00:59:10.500 This is your decision.
00:59:11.680 Do you want to leave the EU or not?
00:59:13.100 They overwhelmingly said yes.
00:59:14.840 Or not overwhelmingly, but they said yes.
00:59:16.760 They said yes.
00:59:16.780 The majority of them said yes.
00:59:18.320 Elections have consequences unless you're in Europe or in England.
00:59:21.420 Right.
00:59:22.060 And is any other government in Europe any different from that?
00:59:27.640 I mean, they're setting a huge precedent right here that everyone else is now watching.
00:59:30.740 But aren't we doing the same thing?
00:59:33.360 Yeah.
00:59:33.680 Border wall.
00:59:34.560 Yeah.
00:59:34.940 Border wall.
00:59:35.620 Nothing.
00:59:36.820 Just like what Will Cowell was just talking about.
00:59:38.500 Yeah.
00:59:38.760 I mean, we've border, taxes, Obamacare, everything we voted our officials into on the GOP side.
00:59:46.260 They don't do it.
00:59:46.660 They don't do it.
00:59:47.140 They don't do it.
00:59:47.660 But I'm sitting here watching this funeral procession now as it's going to the National Cathedral and taking the body of George H.W. Bush to the funeral from the Capitol.
01:00:08.980 And it's, you know, when a president dies, it's pretty remarkable.
01:00:16.880 It's very somber.
01:00:19.180 I've never seen George Bush look like this before.
01:00:21.500 Have you?
01:00:21.960 No, I don't think so.
01:00:23.080 Well, no, actually, one other time.
01:00:24.980 One other time.
01:00:25.980 And it was while he was sitting in the class in Florida.
01:00:29.240 Right?
01:00:29.860 Yep.
01:00:30.260 Exactly.
01:00:30.520 He had the same face.
01:00:32.020 He frowned, and he kind of bit his lip, and that's the only other time.
01:00:38.360 Yep.
01:00:38.620 Is that what you were thinking?
01:00:39.420 Exactly.
01:00:39.880 That's right.
01:00:41.700 I just, it pains me.
01:00:45.020 And can you imagine how hard this process is on a family?
01:00:48.740 Think about what you go through.
01:00:50.760 Yeah, like my father-in-law just passed this summer, and like it was a couple of days, and we were done with it.
01:00:56.360 Not even that.
01:00:57.000 It was one day, actually, and it was over with, and we were trying to move on after that.
01:01:00.640 How many days now has this been going on?
01:01:02.880 Multiple days.
01:01:03.880 The family has to make multiple different, you know, appearances.
01:01:07.400 This has got to be awful to go through.
01:01:10.420 Awful.
01:01:11.460 I'm interested to see, as this funeral begins today, I mean, remember how horrible, the horrible things that Donald Trump said about the Bushes.
01:01:23.600 And I was shocked at some of them when he said these things in, what was it, North or South Carolina.
01:01:31.660 And just, I mean, just bad.
01:01:34.660 You watch.
01:01:36.100 There will not be one reference, one double meaning, anything about President Trump.
01:01:43.780 They will, this, watch the difference between the Bushes and the McCains.
01:01:49.140 I found the McCain funeral sad, so sad.
01:01:54.600 Why make, why make your dad's funeral about somebody else?
01:02:00.720 I personally, and maybe this is bad, I would have had a hard time dealing with it as well, as far as dealing with President Trump.
01:02:08.460 If that was my dad?
01:02:10.460 That was my dad.
01:02:11.260 Yeah, I would too, but I wouldn't make my funeral about that.
01:02:16.180 Agreed.
01:02:17.060 This is why the Bushes are liked.
01:02:19.240 In the end, this is why the Bushes are liked.
01:02:21.100 Yeah.
01:02:21.340 They're just class.
01:02:23.120 They don't, they just don't roll in the mud.
01:02:26.420 I mean, genuine people.
01:02:28.680 I loved President Bush W, George W.
01:02:33.040 He was my commander in chief when I was in the military.
01:02:36.760 He was just a real, like actually my first internship when I was in college.
01:02:41.880 I was doing a political rally and George W was running for governor at the time.
01:02:46.640 And he stopped and talked to me for like 10 minutes, asked me about my internship.
01:02:51.500 Just a crazy down to earth, like he's really, it didn't seem like politics.
01:02:56.420 It didn't, it seemed like, it's actually who he was.
01:02:58.940 And I've never dealt with the rest of the family.
01:03:01.140 I think you have.
01:03:01.960 Oh my gosh.
01:03:02.480 Is it all kind of, is that?
01:03:03.720 Oh my gosh.
01:03:04.500 How everyone is?
01:03:05.020 It all comes from Barbara.
01:03:05.920 Barbara, yeah.
01:03:06.580 It was all Barbara.
01:03:07.640 I mean, you want to talk about one person can't make a difference?
01:03:11.580 Barbara Bush.
01:03:12.660 I'm convinced she is the reason that family is who they are.
01:03:17.340 I mean, look, George, George H.W. grew up in a different time.
01:03:20.940 He was World War II, you know, so it's, it's that quality stock that is, you know, long since been gone.
01:03:31.140 But, but Barbara was just different.
01:03:34.880 And, and George knew that George H.W.
01:03:38.200 And, and the Bush brothers, I know both Jeb and George, and they both have said that.
01:03:45.140 I mean, the, the relationship they had with their parents and their mom is rare, especially nowadays.
01:03:50.600 And mom was just, I hate to say it this way, because she was an iron fist, but she wasn't an iron.
01:03:58.420 She, she was a velvet fist.
01:04:00.280 You know what I mean?
01:04:01.060 You just knew you don't cross these lines as a family.
01:04:05.940 We don't do that as a family.
01:04:09.060 And, you know, you look at all of the dysfunctional families around and how dysfunctional this family could be.
01:04:16.840 They've been in this stuff forever.
01:04:19.460 All of them.
01:04:20.920 And, and they're just, they're, they're not.
01:04:25.380 I think they have one wayward kid.
01:04:28.100 Who doesn't have a wayward kid?
01:04:31.060 But it was, I remember I, I got one of the first interviews, if not the first interview, uh, of George H.W.
01:04:41.600 Bush on the anniversary of 9-11.
01:04:46.020 And it was about, I think about a month before 9-11 and, uh, the first year anniversary.
01:04:53.040 And he talked about what it was like to have his son in office and, uh, how his son dealt with it and how he was away and having to watch it all on TV and, and wasn't there and wondering what his son was going to do.
01:05:13.520 And it was, it was fascinating.
01:05:15.220 We should dig that up.
01:05:16.760 He, he was, he was a remarkable man.
01:05:18.460 You did an interview with a real, another remarkable man.
01:05:20.960 Uh, it was a podcast of that, that guy that's cataloging all the, uh, veterans from World War II, all their stories.
01:05:27.220 Yeah.
01:05:27.500 Really, really good.
01:05:28.420 But this reminds me of that, like, well, that, that, that generation.
01:05:32.500 Do you see Bob Dole yesterday?
01:05:34.140 Oh my gosh.
01:05:35.660 I, I teared up on that.
01:05:37.740 Oh my gosh.
01:05:38.160 Oh my gosh.
01:05:39.060 He's, in case you haven't seen it, you should search for the video.
01:05:42.720 Um, he, he's wheeled up to the coffin and, uh, he's, they take two guys to get him to stand up and they hold him.
01:05:52.300 And it reminded me a lot of what FDR went through because he couldn't say he had no power in his legs.
01:05:58.080 Um, and so they stood him and they, they got him.
01:06:00.940 So he was stable and then kind of let go a little bit of him.
01:06:04.980 Um, and he raised a hand in salute to World War II veterans, one saying goodbye to the other.
01:06:12.220 Uh, and then they, they sat him back down in the wheelchair and he sat there for just a couple of minutes.
01:06:16.640 And it was, uh, it was just, I don't know.
01:06:20.220 It's a passing of an age.
01:06:22.720 Maybe.
01:06:23.800 I mean, the only one that's left is Jimmy Carter.
01:06:26.740 And I don't even know how old Jimmy Carter is.
01:06:29.260 Um, but I don't think, was he raised in World War II?
01:06:31.640 Did he fight in World War II?
01:06:32.820 I think this is, this is it.
01:06:35.920 Because remember after Jimmy Carter, then it's, it's Bill Clinton.
01:06:40.560 So all of the leadership that we have known, uh, that fought in World War II, it's out.
01:06:47.940 Now we, we have the sixties generation.
01:06:50.740 Bob Dole is, uh, is another one of those.
01:06:52.600 There was just a story the other day about talking about how Bob Dole, he, he typically,
01:06:57.100 most of the time he doesn't have the strength to go out in public.
01:06:59.960 But every once in a while, he'll have one of those days where it's just all there and
01:07:03.440 he's got some energy.
01:07:04.320 He still can't walk.
01:07:05.160 He's got to be wheelchaired out.
01:07:06.620 But, um, when he does have those days, every time he gets wheeled out to the World War II
01:07:11.280 Memorial, uh, in Washington, DC, he gets wheeled out.
01:07:14.640 He goes there and he sits there and he talks to the veterans and he talks to people to this,
01:07:18.080 to this, to this day still does that.
01:07:20.400 I mean, just, just amazing.
01:07:21.940 And it's, and it's, it's more that that generation has so much more to teach us that we've, that,
01:07:25.920 that I fear that we were just letting go.
01:07:28.020 We lost it, right?
01:07:29.020 Like we lost it, you know, family values, Barbara Bush.
01:07:31.280 I mean, you know, like we're losing all of that.
01:07:34.200 It's more than just the veterans.
01:07:35.480 You know, when, uh, when we had the crash in 2008, I read a really fascinating take on
01:07:41.800 it and they said this came because all of those people who had lived through the depression,
01:07:47.840 who could even just remember it wasn't necessarily an adult, but could remember it.
01:07:51.680 Um, they had grown up and then they got into Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan and all these
01:07:58.580 places and they were always this steady hand that would always say to the room, well,
01:08:05.800 whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:08:07.020 No, we're not doing that because the world can go insane.
01:08:12.200 And when it does it's collapse, but soon as those guys died and there was no actual memory
01:08:19.860 of what it looks like in collapse, they started doing all these CDOs and everything else.
01:08:26.900 And it is, uh, the world's just going to have to learn it again.
01:08:31.500 It's also, it's, it's on another important lesson about millennials today.
01:08:34.340 They never, they never, and after millennials and on, they didn't live through an era where
01:08:38.460 there was a lot of communism or there's a lot of socialist states.
01:08:40.580 They haven't learned those lessons.
01:08:42.160 Right.
01:08:42.360 And how could they jump back into it?
01:08:43.760 Right.
01:08:44.000 How could they?
01:08:44.760 Nobody's teaching those lessons.
01:08:46.920 Uh, you know, everybody's telling them that those lessons are false.
01:08:50.400 This is something entirely new, but that's, that's what they said in, you know,
01:08:54.600 in 1919 and 1945, that's, you know, 1956.
01:08:58.680 That's what they said.
01:08:59.360 No, this is different this time.
01:09:00.600 No, it's not.
01:09:01.160 It's exactly the same.
01:09:03.720 By the way, uh, Jimmy Carter, uh, did serve, uh, in world war two Navy.
01:09:10.080 Is that right?
01:09:11.500 Yep.
01:09:11.900 He was in the Navy, but he's the last of them.
01:09:16.100 Uh, wow.
01:09:17.740 That's amazing, isn't it?
01:09:18.880 Yeah.
01:09:19.500 It's the last of an, uh, of an era.
01:09:22.160 And, uh,
01:09:22.960 while I disagreed with George Bush's policies, both of them from time to time,
01:09:28.980 there are, there are no,
01:09:32.660 in my lifetime,
01:09:37.100 Ronald Reagan and the Bushes stand apart from everyone else with integrity and honor and decency.
01:09:50.660 Um, and never really losing their touch with the average man.
01:09:58.380 They, they really never did.
01:10:00.760 And I, I, and I'm not saying that they, they, you know, could understood the poverty or whatever.
01:10:06.760 What I mean by that is you could hang out with these guys.
01:10:13.680 The average person could just be with them and you would never feel as though you were different.
01:10:20.120 They never made anybody feel different.
01:10:23.180 And you know,
01:10:24.180 this because if you ever hear anyone and they rarely do anyone talk about serving the presidents in the white house,
01:10:33.480 every single person that I have met,
01:10:36.520 that's in a servant sort of role,
01:10:38.980 a white house role that just comes and sees them come and go one after another.
01:10:43.080 They all say the same thing,
01:10:45.460 the Reagans and both Bushes.
01:10:48.960 And in particular,
01:10:50.200 and I know this goes against history in particular,
01:10:53.660 Barbara Bush and Nancy Reagan.
01:10:56.380 I want to talk to you about car shield.
01:11:15.260 If you have a car that has 5,000 or 150,000 miles on it,
01:11:18.260 doesn't matter.
01:11:19.420 It's out of warranty.
01:11:20.240 Does it ever seem like the,
01:11:24.120 like the,
01:11:25.300 um,
01:11:26.420 the car manufacturers like,
01:11:28.100 okay,
01:11:28.700 look,
01:11:28.980 we're only gonna put a four year warranty on this thing.
01:11:30.980 So four years,
01:11:31.800 one day I want it to go.
01:11:34.200 Um,
01:11:35.140 you,
01:11:35.460 you know,
01:11:35.700 you,
01:11:35.960 you,
01:11:36.280 you have to buy a sensor now and it's a thousand dollars and a lot of stuff you can't do by yourself.
01:11:41.400 So you have to bring it in for a repair and that can put a price on your,
01:11:45.540 your,
01:11:46.080 your family's welfare.
01:11:47.240 I mean,
01:11:48.080 you know,
01:11:49.080 you have to dish out a thousand dollars to get your car out of the shop.
01:11:52.820 Who can afford that?
01:11:55.320 I suggest you get extended vehicle protection from car shield.
01:11:59.540 Now I have this,
01:12:00.680 uh,
01:12:01.020 I have a truck.
01:12:01.840 It's,
01:12:02.240 I don't even know,
01:12:03.320 eight years old and it's fine.
01:12:05.260 I don't want anything.
01:12:06.400 You know,
01:12:06.840 I,
01:12:07.040 I,
01:12:07.400 you know,
01:12:08.180 I'm going to drive it till the doors fall off.
01:12:10.480 But again,
01:12:11.200 I brought it in and there was a five or 6,000,
01:12:13.420 maybe $7,000 repair.
01:12:14.620 I don't know.
01:12:15.020 It was,
01:12:15.500 I'll say six and compromise.
01:12:17.960 It was expensive.
01:12:19.060 The reason why I don't know how much it was is because car shield covered it.
01:12:22.800 I brought it in for an oil change and they said,
01:12:24.880 Hey,
01:12:25.060 this,
01:12:25.420 this is gone.

01:13:06.500 uh,
01:13:06.880 talk to you here in the next break about the,
01:13:10.400 uh,
01:13:10.660 Saturday night live comedian and writer,
01:13:12.780 uh,
01:13:13.360 Nimesh Patal,
01:13:14.200 who,
01:13:14.560 uh,
01:13:15.380 is Emmy nominated.
01:13:16.780 He's a comedian.
01:13:18.620 Um,
01:13:19.100 and he went to a college campus and they were having stuff and they shut him
01:13:22.980 down and said he was a disgrace.
01:13:25.300 And how dare you?
01:13:27.100 I mean,
01:13:27.380 it is getting crazy on the campus.
01:13:29.880 This is now.
01:13:30.500 And I'm,
01:13:31.240 I'm glad to see the progressive comedians,
01:13:33.320 uh,
01:13:34.060 are seeing the world in which,
01:13:35.420 you know,
01:13:36.000 they helped create.
01:13:37.380 I don't know if they can help turn it around,
01:13:39.360 but you know,
01:13:40.760 some people are.
01:13:41.560 Lauren Chen is,
01:13:43.080 um,

01:13:46.880 the roaming millennial,
01:13:48.500 um,
01:13:49.340 is,

01:13:57.360 And she is,
01:13:58.600 she's just remarkable and remarkably smart.
01:14:02.560 I don't know what it is with these Canadians.
01:14:05.000 She was,
01:14:05.860 uh,
01:14:06.180 I think she was born in Hong Kong and,
01:14:07.940 uh,
01:14:08.360 went to Canada now lives here.
01:14:10.480 Uh,
01:14:10.960 but all these Canadians that have the guts to stand up and say,
01:14:13.980 Hey,
01:14:14.480 uh,
01:14:15.040 freedom of speech.
01:14:16.480 She's,

01:14:59.640 a host of roaming millennial uncensored.
01:15:01.580 She is somebody that has about 20 million views on,
01:15:05.660 uh,
01:15:05.980 YouTube,
01:15:07.160 uh,
01:15:07.520 hundreds of thousands of followers.
01:15:09.340 Uh,
01:15:09.660 she has also been on Fox news.
01:15:11.120 The daily wire rebel media,
01:15:12.440 Prager,
01:15:12.760 you,
01:15:13.060 the Rubin report.
01:15:14.120 She was born in Canada,
01:15:15.940 raised in Hong Kong,
01:15:17.520 still lives in Canada,
01:15:18.780 and now is truly a very,
01:15:21.120 uh,
01:15:22.020 a very smart voice for freedom.
01:15:25.920 And Lauren,
01:15:27.040 I have to,
01:15:27.560 first of all,
01:15:27.900 welcome.
01:15:28.320 Thank you so much for having me.
01:15:29.640 Uh,
01:15:29.960 I,
01:15:30.220 I have to start with this.
01:15:31.940 What is it with Canada?
01:15:33.840 All of the intellectuals are like bailing our ass out.
01:15:37.100 Well,
01:15:37.560 you know,
01:15:37.840 it's funny because if you look at,
01:15:39.560 I guess,
01:15:39.740 conservative figures right now,
01:15:41.140 a disproportionate amount of them are Canadian.
01:15:43.280 So on the one hand,
01:15:43.800 that's kind of cool.
01:15:44.580 But on the other,
01:15:45.220 I think it's like that right now because things have gotten so bad in Canada,
01:15:49.160 just so off the rails that there's been like a reactionary movement.
01:15:53.320 Um,
01:15:53.640 I hope that the States doesn't get to that point.
01:15:56.640 And so I'm like,
01:15:57.320 what is it?
01:15:57.840 Well,
01:15:57.960 because I've always thought Canada was off the rails.
01:16:00.100 Yeah.
01:16:00.380 And so,
01:16:00.840 you know,
01:16:01.020 and,
01:16:01.140 and Americans,
01:16:01.980 I know nothing about nothing against Canada.
01:16:04.240 I love Canada.
01:16:04.960 I grew up about 40 miles.
01:16:07.700 I've good Canadian friends,
01:16:09.280 you know,
01:16:09.520 all that crap.
01:16:10.480 Um,
01:16:10.840 but I've always thought Canada was off the rails.
01:16:14.040 Yeah.
01:16:14.280 What is happening now that you think maybe Americans don't really understand?
01:16:20.080 Right.
01:16:20.280 So for the longest time in Canada,
01:16:21.360 we've had that whole universal healthcare,
01:16:23.500 socialized medicine thing.
01:16:24.900 Um,
01:16:25.300 but it's,
01:16:25.760 it's going even further than that now,
01:16:27.200 because right now we have someone like Justin Trudeau in power and,
01:16:31.100 you know,
01:16:31.220 places like Ontario,
01:16:32.120 they're actually legislating things like gender identity as protected for
01:16:36.080 children.
01:16:36.420 Right.
01:16:37.040 Which means that if you're a parent and your daughter or son decides that,
01:16:41.560 I don't know,
01:16:42.060 they're omni gender or whatever the new trendy thing is these days,
01:16:44.960 uh,
01:16:45.200 you could potentially,
01:16:46.440 um,
01:16:47.320 have your parental rights in danger for not recognizing that.
01:16:51.080 So,
01:16:51.340 and not to mention the,
01:16:52.880 the fact that now not only do we have this whole political correctness that
01:16:56.100 has just infested our government,
01:16:57.460 but combine that with the refugee crisis that's going on in Europe,
01:17:01.600 Canada isn't Sweden or Germany right now by any means.
01:17:04.680 But again,
01:17:05.340 with someone like Trudeau in power,
01:17:06.860 we're,
01:17:07.380 we're seeing those same kinds of challenges that Europe has been seeing.
01:17:11.140 Is there anything about you growing up in Hong Kong that,
01:17:14.160 uh,
01:17:14.800 helps you see the world differently?
01:17:16.980 I think so.
01:17:17.640 I mean,
01:17:18.040 Hong Kong has an interesting history.
01:17:19.840 If,
01:17:20.240 if you know about the,
01:17:21.220 uh,
01:17:21.400 the,
01:17:21.620 the British ruling it for a hundred years and then going back to China.
01:17:24.780 And it's funny because I,
01:17:26.560 I grew up in Hong Kong when it was currently a colonial power.
01:17:30.140 I mean,
01:17:30.400 between Hong Kong and Canada,
01:17:31.520 it's kind of like I'm British adjacent,
01:17:33.260 I guess.
01:17:33.900 Yes.
01:17:34.140 Um,
01:17:34.860 but since then,
01:17:35.700 every time I go back when,
01:17:37.260 you know,
01:17:37.660 the Chinese,
01:17:38.400 they took things over again,
01:17:39.760 it's,
01:17:40.180 there's more and more encroachment of freedoms that I think a lot of Hong Kong
01:17:43.800 people took for granted,
01:17:44.820 especially during the nineties,
01:17:46.580 um,
01:17:46.820 things like religious freedom,
01:17:48.020 freedom of the press.
01:17:48.960 And I think that for Canadians and Americans may not have ever been something that they
01:17:54.440 need to be consciously aware of.
01:17:55.760 But when you come from a background where there's actually political upheaval currently
01:17:59.260 going on in a very big way,
01:18:00.580 I think it just makes you a lot more cautious of government power.
01:18:03.360 So what is it that you have to say that has connected with 20 million people?
01:18:08.920 What is it that you think,
01:18:10.840 um,
01:18:12.280 people are saying,
01:18:14.100 yes,
01:18:14.700 finally,
01:18:15.200 somebody saying that,
01:18:16.380 you know,
01:18:16.960 I asked myself that question a lot,
01:18:18.920 um,
01:18:20.020 shocks me still,
01:18:21.020 but,
01:18:21.240 uh,
01:18:21.860 I think people,
01:18:22.800 a lot of them.
01:18:23.400 And what's interesting is that on YouTube,
01:18:25.400 which is where I started off,
01:18:26.780 my audience isn't entirely conservative.
01:18:29.880 I have a lot of people on the left who are listening to me.
01:18:32.340 That's good.
01:18:32.860 Yeah.
01:18:33.060 And I think,
01:18:33.520 I think it's great.
01:18:34.300 And I get a lot of people saying,
01:18:35.520 Hey,
01:18:35.640 I don't agree with you,
01:18:36.320 but I appreciate your perspective,
01:18:37.360 which is amazing.
01:18:38.000 And we need more people listening in on people they don't agree with.
01:18:41.320 But I think what people are interested in is the fact that I'm not trying to demonize
01:18:45.260 anybody.
01:18:45.600 I don't hate anybody.
01:18:46.760 I don't think of myself as an unreasonable person.
01:18:49.320 I'm just trying to call out what I see as unreasonableness in the world that is masquerading
01:18:53.780 as civility,
01:18:55.780 as tolerance,
01:18:56.960 as acceptance or whatever they're calling it nowadays when it's,
01:18:59.760 it's really the opposite.
01:19:01.120 Are you concerned at all about de-platforming?
01:19:03.580 Uh,
01:19:03.900 yeah.
01:19:04.400 As someone who started off on YouTube,
01:19:05.680 that's,
01:19:05.940 that's been something I can't remember not being concerned about,
01:19:09.660 whether that's,
01:19:10.300 you know,
01:19:10.420 being flagged,
01:19:11.600 demonetized,
01:19:12.560 just kicked off the platform entirely.
01:19:13.980 But Hey,
01:19:14.340 that's why I'm so thankful that.
01:19:15.980 That conservative media platforms like,
01:19:18.160 like this exists because it's,
01:19:19.500 it's necessary.
01:19:20.120 And I have people who are wanting to get started in commentary or writing,
01:19:24.280 ask me,
01:19:25.340 um,
01:19:26.260 for some advice.
01:19:27.140 And the number one thing I could tell them is that to not put your basket in any one platform,
01:19:31.880 because it could be taken away at any point,
01:19:33.980 especially if you're someone who says anything unpopular in regard to gender,
01:19:38.280 immigration,
01:19:38.960 anything like that.
01:19:39.540 That's the thing that,
01:19:40.180 you know,
01:19:40.400 the press and some people try to make this a merger between,
01:19:44.120 uh,
01:19:44.640 CRTV and,
01:19:45.620 and the blaze TV about,
01:19:47.540 you know,
01:19:47.960 about me or Mark or money or whatever.
01:19:50.680 It's not,
01:19:51.320 it's really,
01:19:52.740 truly about just like-minded people all across the conservative spectrum coming together and saying,
01:19:59.620 I don't,
01:20:00.480 I,
01:20:01.040 I want to be in a pack because if we don't,
01:20:04.060 if we don't hang together,
01:20:05.240 we'll hang separately.
01:20:06.340 They'll just pick us off one by one.
01:20:08.220 Uh,
01:20:08.700 and I,
01:20:09.020 I think that's really important.
01:20:10.960 Right.
01:20:11.060 And what's,
01:20:11.560 I mean,
01:20:11.960 I,
01:20:12.180 I'm excited about this as someone who not only produces conservative media,
01:20:15.280 but also watches a heck of a lot of it.
01:20:17.120 I like the idea of having everything in one place.
01:20:19.760 And I think if you're a subscriber,
01:20:21.260 it's,
01:20:21.840 it's kind of hard to say,
01:20:23.280 Hey,
01:20:23.560 I want this show and I want this show,
01:20:25.160 but I only have this many dollars per month to buy like 30 different subscriptions.
01:20:29.060 Um,
01:20:29.760 but what's been interesting to me,
01:20:31.480 like you've mentioned is that people are framing this as an echo chamber.
01:20:34.540 And I think if you think that between like yourself,
01:20:37.600 a crowd or Gavin McInnes,
01:20:39.660 that that's an echo chamber of everyone thinking the same thing.
01:20:41.720 You just haven't been watching.
01:20:42.640 You haven't.
01:20:43.320 You haven't.
01:20:43.840 No,
01:20:44.260 they just,
01:20:44.620 they take everything that disagrees,
01:20:47.440 uh,
01:20:48.360 that,
01:20:48.880 you know,
01:20:49.440 uh,
01:20:50.460 you know,
01:20:50.720 we should have open borders and,
01:20:52.200 and America is a bad place.
01:20:53.640 And just anything outside of that,
01:20:56.380 they just say it's all crazy.
01:20:58.500 Yeah.
01:20:58.760 All right wing extremists.
01:21:00.300 Right.
01:21:00.720 We have people who are,
01:21:02.520 you know,
01:21:03.260 rah,
01:21:03.560 rah,
01:21:03.920 GOP kind of,
01:21:05.600 you know,
01:21:06.140 and libertarians and then libertarians.
01:21:08.040 We have the entire spectrum and,
01:21:10.680 and I,
01:21:11.240 I'm,
01:21:11.860 I'm hoping that,
01:21:13.940 uh,
01:21:14.480 that we can be an example of all these different voices coming together.
01:21:18.800 And when we have differences,
01:21:20.740 just coming on each other's show and saying,
01:21:23.800 Hey dude,
01:21:24.100 I have a problem with this.
01:21:25.580 Can you explain or help me?
01:21:27.380 And we may still disagree,
01:21:28.800 but we don't have to kill each other over it.
01:21:31.580 Right.
01:21:31.700 We don't have to call each other Nazis and racist sexes.
01:21:34.740 Right.
01:21:35.520 Yeah.
01:21:36.000 So tell me,
01:21:37.020 tell me what keeps you,
01:21:38.500 uh,
01:21:39.900 up at night that you think if more people could just,
01:21:43.220 if they just be aware of this,
01:21:44.520 or if they could just,
01:21:45.340 you know,
01:21:46.240 thread the needle through this,
01:21:48.220 what is it?
01:21:49.280 Well,
01:21:49.960 when I was in college,
01:21:51.180 I studied political science.
01:21:52.560 And for the longest time,
01:21:54.160 I thought everything revolved around policy.
01:21:56.040 And it's funny because I was small government minded,
01:21:58.640 but I was still in the mindset that of,
01:22:00.420 Oh,
01:22:00.480 if government were this specific way,
01:22:02.100 then society would be perfect.
01:22:03.580 It happened that the way I thought government should be was small,
01:22:07.060 limited and pro freedom.
01:22:07.920 But I was still very reliant on outside forces being able to dictate how good
01:22:12.240 society is.
01:22:13.500 The older that I've gotten,
01:22:14.880 the more I've realized that policy is of course important.
01:22:17.540 I will,
01:22:17.900 I will never say that it's not,
01:22:19.880 but at the same time,
01:22:21.180 I,
01:22:21.880 as I get older,
01:22:22.560 I think that if more people were to,
01:22:25.520 I guess,
01:22:26.280 check themselves,
01:22:27.000 their own personal lives.
01:22:28.320 Um,
01:22:28.720 and for me,
01:22:29.340 that's very,
01:22:30.440 very largely,
01:22:31.180 um,
01:22:31.800 Christianity.
01:22:32.420 If we were to be more engaged with that and how we behave with our family
01:22:36.160 members,
01:22:36.600 our friends,
01:22:37.320 strangers,
01:22:37.920 all of these questions about politics,
01:22:40.260 it's not that they wouldn't matter,
01:22:41.180 but they would be a lot less important.
01:22:42.700 Right.
01:22:43.100 I mean,
01:22:43.560 if,
01:22:44.220 if people,
01:22:45.320 for example,
01:22:46.080 um,
01:22:46.360 had healthy family lives,
01:22:47.640 then the question of child poverty would be less important.
01:22:50.380 Right.
01:22:50.680 If,
01:22:50.840 if people had,
01:22:52.240 um,
01:22:53.060 I guess more opportunities because they embrace their own education and the
01:22:57.280 value of hard work,
01:22:57.960 then things like welfare would be less of an issue.
01:23:00.120 Not that they wouldn't matter,
01:23:01.120 but we wouldn't be,
01:23:02.220 I guess it wouldn't be a make or break issue.
01:23:04.320 And so,
01:23:04.980 if you don't self-regulate,
01:23:06.320 somebody has to do it for you.
01:23:07.520 Right.
01:23:07.940 And Dennis Prager talks about this a lot,
01:23:09.920 where if you have small government,
01:23:11.460 you kind of need a big God,
01:23:12.880 right?
01:23:13.020 You need something to,
01:23:15.020 I guess,
01:23:15.480 motivate you,
01:23:16.080 something that you care about,
01:23:16.900 something you're passionate about.
01:23:18.160 Otherwise,
01:23:18.700 it's just,
01:23:19.260 it's,
01:23:19.740 it's anarchy.
01:23:20.500 And I think Jordan Peterson,
01:23:22.780 um,
01:23:23.080 you know,
01:23:23.280 he's,
01:23:23.660 he's not a Christian,
01:23:24.440 but he's someone who is at least trying to talk about the need for self
01:23:28.460 improvement and the value of that.
01:23:30.340 And people are responding to it in a big way.
01:23:32.320 I think millennials get a bad name.
01:23:34.560 I think they get a bad rap.
01:23:36.160 Um,
01:23:37.020 and I don't know,
01:23:37.820 maybe,
01:23:38.320 maybe they are all what everybody says.
01:23:40.540 I,
01:23:40.760 I haven't met them.
01:23:42.120 Um,
01:23:42.520 I have met some,
01:23:44.140 but I've met those same people in my generation.
01:23:46.600 I mean,
01:23:47.040 that's normal.
01:23:48.380 Um,
01:23:49.360 tell me who the millennial generation is in your opinion.
01:23:52.680 Um,
01:23:53.160 in my opinion,
01:23:53.680 we're,
01:23:54.180 we're well-educated.
01:23:55.780 Uh,
01:23:56.080 you know,
01:23:56.340 a lot of us have degrees.
01:23:57.520 We're entrepreneurial,
01:23:58.800 uh,
01:23:59.060 which is something that's interesting because as much as we tend towards
01:24:02.540 socialism,
01:24:02.980 which absolutely millennials do,
01:24:05.040 uh,
01:24:05.400 we're also,
01:24:06.020 I guess,
01:24:06.920 more of a self-starting generation than previous generations.
01:24:09.720 It's not that we're that great,
01:24:10.860 but through technology,
01:24:11.980 we just have the greater means to do it.
01:24:13.620 This is the thing I can't understand about millennials because when I got
01:24:17.160 into radio,
01:24:17.920 it's been 45 years.
01:24:20.160 I had to go to the FCC and take a test to be able to know how to operate
01:24:26.380 a transmitter.
01:24:27.900 Okay.
01:24:28.300 I had to take a test.
01:24:29.440 Then I had to go to a corporation,
01:24:30.880 get a job.
01:24:32.020 You know,
01:24:32.500 there were very few jobs,
01:24:33.580 blah,
01:24:33.660 blah,
01:24:33.720 blah.
01:24:33.900 You don't have to do any of that stuff now.
01:24:35.580 And you don't even have to go on radio.
01:24:36.980 You can do it from your own home with your own stuff.
01:24:40.160 You can be heard more than any other time.
01:24:42.580 You want to be a band in my generation.
01:24:45.140 You had to wait for the record scout to come to the bar that you were playing.
01:24:49.180 You don't even need that anymore.
01:24:51.120 How is it this generation who is more free to do things because of the internet than any
01:24:57.680 other generation ever in the history of mankind is still saying,
01:25:02.260 but I want more government.
01:25:03.340 Well,
01:25:03.920 I think it's kind of a paradox.
01:25:05.360 We're so used to this freedom because we have so much freedom,
01:25:08.700 whether that's,
01:25:09.560 you know,
01:25:10.120 racially in terms of gender,
01:25:11.480 we're just a very free,
01:25:12.720 very egalitarian generation.
01:25:14.200 And I think that's almost made us complacent because we're so used to having things so great,
01:25:18.940 so amazing.
01:25:19.680 Not that there haven't been,
01:25:20.980 I guess,
01:25:21.240 economic,
01:25:21.840 you know,
01:25:23.120 recessions associated with our generation coming into the workforce,
01:25:25.980 which there have,
01:25:26.540 have been,
01:25:27.040 but we're so used to everything going our way that we almost can't imagine a way that it's not working out.
01:25:32.780 So I think,
01:25:33.580 you know,
01:25:34.120 when someone my age looks at something like healthcare in the U S which,
01:25:37.580 you know,
01:25:37.760 as,
01:25:38.040 as much as liberals like to say Republicans or the right or whatever,
01:25:41.440 think the American healthcare system is currently great.
01:25:44.280 I've never heard a single,
01:25:45.640 single person on the right say,
01:25:47.000 yeah,
01:25:47.180 this is,
01:25:47.820 we're good.
01:25:48.220 This is how it should be.
01:25:49.460 But,
01:25:49.780 but in any case,
01:25:50.520 they,
01:25:50.680 they look at something like that and think,
01:25:51.980 oh,
01:25:52.180 well,
01:25:52.340 this is kind of not working.
01:25:53.520 So let's just go for full on socialism,
01:25:55.320 right?
01:25:55.500 Why not?
01:25:56.040 Because they don't,
01:25:56.700 they don't understand that.
01:25:57.920 No,
01:25:58.200 like things can get significantly worse.
01:26:00.320 This is like,
01:26:00.880 if you think this is awful,
01:26:01.900 you have not seen anything.
01:26:04.500 That kills me because it's almost like you've never traveled anywhere else before in your life.
01:26:12.400 You know,
01:26:12.540 when we look at our problems today,
01:26:15.560 are you kidding me?
01:26:17.020 You know,
01:26:17.560 the number one cause of death,
01:26:19.100 what,
01:26:19.240 120 years ago for women was fire.
01:26:21.940 They would burn to death.
01:26:24.860 I mean,
01:26:25.240 we don't even have that.
01:26:26.880 I don't think that's even on the top thousand ways to die for women today.
01:26:30.600 Yeah,
01:26:30.780 for sure.
01:26:31.240 I mean,
01:26:31.420 people who complain about things like microaggressions or men spreading,
01:26:36.180 all those things,
01:26:36.980 like anytime I hear someone just mentioned those words,
01:26:39.420 what,
01:26:39.700 what I think of is just privilege,
01:26:42.480 like definitely class privilege.
01:26:44.000 If you're,
01:26:44.520 if that's what you're worried about,
01:26:45.760 then I'm sorry,
01:26:46.340 you've had a pretty nice life.
01:26:47.360 And also it's just,
01:26:48.160 it's so,
01:26:49.340 I mean,
01:26:49.660 this is a word that's been overused,
01:26:50.900 but Eurocentric,
01:26:51.700 like if that's your problems,
01:26:53.560 that's,
01:26:53.940 that's such a first world problem.
01:26:55.540 And it's almost kind of,
01:26:57.000 it's a sign of how well we've come as a society.
01:27:00.060 Ironically,
01:27:00.460 that now this is what we're concerned about.
01:27:02.560 It really is.
01:27:03.360 It shows how,
01:27:04.240 how fat we are.
01:27:06.100 Really.
01:27:06.600 It is.
01:27:06.940 You have like,
01:27:07.640 you know,
01:27:08.520 you're so you're,
01:27:09.580 you don't have enough to do.
01:27:11.420 You don't have to go out and,
01:27:13.000 and,
01:27:13.960 you know,
01:27:15.340 go find your own food,
01:27:16.800 build your own fire,
01:27:18.100 build your own house,
01:27:19.520 you know,
01:27:20.140 you know,
01:27:20.840 hitch the wagon with the horses to go into the town.
01:27:24.400 I mean,
01:27:24.860 you have so much time.
01:27:26.040 You're like,
01:27:26.700 you know what?
01:27:27.200 I was really offended by something that somebody said,
01:27:30.020 and I think I should put a group together and we should all,
01:27:34.560 we should start a hashtag group.
01:27:36.880 Oh my gosh.
01:27:38.320 I want to talk to you a little bit about Namesh Patal.
01:27:42.040 Did you hear what he said?
01:27:43.920 And he's a Saturday night live writer and comedian,
01:27:48.060 and he was on college campus.
01:27:50.240 I'll give this to you here in just a second.
01:27:51.960 I'm going to take a break.
01:27:52.620 I'll give you the story so you can look it over.
01:27:55.040 Cause it's interesting what people were offended by.
01:27:57.280 And I would love to hear your thoughts from the roaming millennial coming up in just a second.
01:28:03.160 First,
01:28:03.420 let me tell you a sponsor.
01:28:04.320 This half hour is X chair,
01:28:05.840 X chair,
01:28:06.940 the holidays are here and X chair makes the perfect gift for anybody who is a hardworking employee or a spouse,
01:28:12.660 or,
01:28:13.880 you know,
01:28:14.220 I'm just saying you,
01:28:15.520 you spend more time.
01:28:17.080 You know,
01:28:17.640 if you're an office worker,
01:28:18.540 you spend more time in your chair,
01:28:20.180 in your office chair than you do in bed at night.
01:28:22.640 That's terrible,
01:28:23.740 isn't it?
01:28:24.620 X chair.
01:28:25.580 They're also launching a brand new model for a limited time,
01:28:28.500 only available for this audience.
01:28:30.680 It's X chair,
01:28:32.000 Beck.com.
01:28:33.020 The model is being introduced to the world through you first.
01:28:36.960 It actually came from ideas that they listen to people when they call and came from an idea from,
01:28:43.640 from this audience.
01:28:44.800 So they started making it X chair.
01:28:46.660 It's called the X basic has the same remarkable dynamic variable lumbar support that makes X chair.
01:28:53.620 So special,
01:28:54.280 really great,
01:28:55.860 comfortable foams,
01:28:57.300 foams seat.
01:28:58.640 It just doesn't have,
01:29:00.500 I mean,
01:29:00.780 literally,
01:29:01.160 I think this chair can fly.
01:29:02.700 I have the other one and I think it has so many adjustments on it.
01:29:05.700 I don't even know.
01:29:06.360 I don't even touch it.
01:29:07.220 I like,
01:29:07.540 I don't know what any of this stuff does.
01:29:09.900 This one's doesn't have all of those things,
01:29:12.220 but has many of them.
01:29:13.180 It's X chair.
01:29:14.140 It has incredible comfort.
01:29:15.740 Again,
01:29:16.140 it makes a perfect Christmas gift.
01:29:18.100 It's the X chair and you can find it now at eight,

01:29:33.040 That's xchairbeck.com.
01:29:40.640 Welcome back to the program.
01:29:42.760 We're,
01:29:42.880 we're,
01:29:43.240 we're glad you joined us today.
01:29:44.680 We're talking to the,
01:29:45.760 the roaming millennial who is,
01:29:48.700 you went to USC.
01:29:51.020 I did my freshman year at USC and then I transferred to BYU.
01:29:55.480 Wow.
01:29:56.360 Uh,
01:29:56.640 that husband called for shock.
01:29:58.000 Yeah.
01:29:58.340 And that's the thing.
01:29:59.740 Like I'm not Mormon,
01:30:00.860 but I got a,
01:30:01.480 you know,
01:30:01.720 scholarship and stuff.
01:30:02.720 And I studied Arabic and BYU has,
01:30:05.000 I think this one of the top Arabic programs in the world,
01:30:08.120 but it was,
01:30:08.760 it was definitely too much of a shock from my upbringing to be going to USC.
01:30:13.820 Like,
01:30:14.220 I mean,
01:30:14.460 as it's a great school,
01:30:15.600 that's saying something that it was too much of a shock.
01:30:18.120 So you went to the Mormon school.
01:30:20.020 Yeah.
01:30:20.600 I mean,
01:30:20.860 well,
01:30:21.220 as someone who grew up with like a conservative Chinese father going to USC
01:30:25.460 where people like,
01:30:26.400 I mean,
01:30:26.720 we would be in the,
01:30:28.000 the common area of our dorms and there'd be people doing actual cocaine.
01:30:31.800 And it's like,
01:30:32.640 that's,
01:30:32.940 you know,
01:30:33.140 I was 17 at the time,
01:30:34.600 just like sheltered Asian.
01:30:36.080 I'm bringing,
01:30:36.340 it's like,
01:30:36.500 all right,
01:30:37.040 I'm out.
01:30:37.580 This is a good school,
01:30:38.520 but nah,
01:30:39.560 not my thing.
01:30:40.700 And when you were,
01:30:41.340 when you were USC,
01:30:42.200 you were part of the young Republicans and how many were there?
01:30:44.980 Like 14.
01:30:46.600 Yeah.
01:30:47.160 Yeah.
01:30:47.680 About,
01:30:47.920 about that.
01:30:48.660 Um,
01:30:49.260 you know,
01:30:49.500 one of whom was my roommate who I made come just because,
01:30:53.600 so yeah,
01:30:55.560 but I mean that,
01:30:56.320 I mean,
01:30:56.560 they were such a big help though.
01:30:57.800 Just,
01:30:58.540 I guess in terms of morale and motivationally that now,
01:31:00.960 if there's anything I can do to help the college Republicans,
01:31:03.160 like I am there because they,
01:31:04.740 they make a big difference in kids.
01:31:06.020 Just make you feel like you're not alone.
01:31:08.000 Exactly.
01:31:08.520 You're one of 14.
01:31:10.220 Yes.
01:31:10.720 You're not entirely alone.
01:31:12.220 They still surround us and they'll kill us if they hear that we're meeting.
01:31:15.260 But,
01:31:15.880 um,
01:31:16.520 I,
01:31:17.080 I have to find the exact quotes,
01:31:18.460 uh,
01:31:18.920 from a Namesh,
01:31:20.040 Namesh,
01:31:20.720 Namesh,
01:31:21.400 I can't say it now from the Saturday night.
01:31:23.940 Gresham.
01:31:24.660 Yes.
01:31:25.580 From,
01:31:26.040 uh,
01:31:26.260 from Saturday night life writer.
01:31:27.620 Um,
01:31:27.940 and I,
01:31:28.380 I can't find them yet.
01:31:29.240 So I,
01:31:29.780 I'll hold off on that.
01:31:31.260 Um,
01:31:31.520 I want to talk to you about,
01:31:32.480 um,
01:31:33.200 Islam.
01:31:33.600 Cause you did,
01:31:34.960 um,
01:31:35.620 you took Arabic studies.
01:31:37.440 You speak Arabic or enough to read.
01:31:40.740 I did two years of Arabic in school.
01:31:42.640 Um,
01:31:42.880 I graduated a while ago,
01:31:44.040 so that's gotten just progressively worse every,
01:31:46.360 every,
01:31:46.720 every month they don't speak it.
01:31:47.960 But yeah,
01:31:48.360 I studied that.
01:31:49.220 So what is your,
01:31:49.880 what is your thought on,
01:31:51.460 um,
01:31:52.820 let's say what's happening in,
01:31:54.420 in Europe,
01:31:55.500 uh,
01:31:56.180 and what's happening in England where they just kind of,
01:31:59.300 they're just ignoring that there's,
01:32:01.820 you know,
01:32:02.360 different kinds of people just like there are different kinds of Catholics and
01:32:05.040 different kinds of Mormons.
01:32:05.960 Some of them are good.
01:32:06.540 Some of them are bad.
01:32:07.260 Right.
01:32:07.660 Well,
01:32:07.920 I think when I look at Europe,
01:32:08.980 it's funny because there are,
01:32:10.240 there are absolutely people out there who genuinely hate Muslims because
01:32:13.820 they're Muslims.
01:32:14.340 I'm not going to say that those people don't exist,
01:32:16.500 but in my opinion,
01:32:17.260 the people who say that you can just open your borders to anyone and that
01:32:21.640 everyone will just,
01:32:22.500 as soon as they cross into Europe,
01:32:23.700 become freedom loving and equality loving and okay with LGBT people.
01:32:27.400 Um,
01:32:27.840 that's equally as ignorant.
01:32:29.360 Like both of these people do not understand what Islam is about.
01:32:32.720 They don't understand the culture and history of these countries.
01:32:35.300 Um,
01:32:35.700 and I,
01:32:36.260 in my opinion,
01:32:36.680 they're both as dangerous,
01:32:37.580 but why I focus more on the people who are,
01:32:40.040 uh,
01:32:41.020 parading under the,
01:32:42.220 I guess,
01:32:42.420 mask of like tolerance,
01:32:43.840 whatever,
01:32:44.160 is that those people are the ones who are in power right now.
01:32:46.800 And they have the ability to do a lot more harm than,
01:32:49.620 than anyone who is genuinely Islamophobic.
01:32:51.680 Because I think,
01:32:52.780 I mean,
01:32:53.160 we all agree that that's,
01:32:54.500 you shouldn't hate someone for religion,
01:32:56.440 right?
01:32:56.540 If you're a mainstream person,
01:32:57.720 no.
01:32:58.360 Um,
01:32:58.840 but it's,
01:32:59.780 it's funny because the,
01:33:01.360 I guess the tolerant bigots,
01:33:03.360 as I,
01:33:03.860 I like to think of them,
01:33:05.060 they're the ones who are in power right now.
01:33:07.180 So it's,
01:33:08.220 it's kind of dangerous,
01:33:09.080 especially if you're someone who is worried about these things in those
01:33:11.960 countries,
01:33:12.320 because not only are they really changing the makeup of,
01:33:16.280 I guess,
01:33:17.660 of your,
01:33:18.180 of your States just by,
01:33:20.100 I guess,
01:33:20.500 means of demographically,
01:33:21.800 um,
01:33:22.980 changing that,
01:33:23.580 but they're also kind of instituting these laws where you can't even talk
01:33:26.440 about it.
01:33:27.140 Look at,
01:33:27.980 look at England,
01:33:28.900 look at England,
01:33:29.420 what's happening to England.
01:33:30.520 I don't think England stands anymore.
01:33:33.100 I mean,
01:33:34.100 it's,
01:33:34.440 it's a shell of itself.
01:33:35.900 It's afraid of its own population.
01:33:38.340 Right.
01:33:38.840 And,
01:33:39.500 uh,
01:33:40.280 and,
01:33:40.760 and I,
01:33:42.120 I don't know how the media and the ruling class,
01:33:46.840 if you will,
01:33:47.200 over in Europe and here in America are missing this.
01:33:49.880 It's not that people are bigots.
01:33:51.920 They're tired of being told that what they feel is wrong.
01:33:56.320 And I know facts and feelings are different,
01:33:59.320 but you can take your feelings that are coming from the facts and say,
01:34:04.640 wait,
01:34:04.940 wait,
01:34:05.440 wait,
01:34:05.700 this is,
01:34:06.700 they're not melting in.
01:34:08.380 They're not wanting to be a part of us.
01:34:10.400 And you know,
01:34:11.840 the,
01:34:12.160 the rapes and everything else,
01:34:13.720 it's all going up because of this.
01:34:16.760 And,
01:34:17.260 and nobody's paying attention to it.
01:34:19.040 And that's how extremes rise,
01:34:21.040 because all you have to have is somebody says,
01:34:22.540 I agree with you on that.
01:34:24.020 So let's round them all up.
01:34:25.700 And that's what,
01:34:26.460 that's what worries me is the people that are using the Islam issue,
01:34:29.380 to take kind of,
01:34:30.880 to kind of seize power because of the only ones that are listening to that.
01:34:34.040 It's a problem.
01:34:34.580 Like it's one thing to,
01:34:36.160 you know,
01:34:36.460 to say,
01:34:37.120 I I'm against open borders and I want like,
01:34:39.260 you know,
01:34:39.480 enforce immigration laws,
01:34:40.820 but then you have groups like a generation identity,
01:34:42.720 right?
01:34:43.160 Like those guys.
01:34:44.140 And they're like actually occupying mosques and stuff.
01:34:47.100 We will continue.
01:34:48.080 Can you stay?
01:34:48.700 Yeah.
01:34:48.920 We'll continue with Lauren Chen,
01:34:50.340 the roaming millennial here in just a second.
01:34:52.540 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:34:57.360 Lauren Chen is a political social commentary host of the CRTV.
01:35:02.240 Now blaze TV show roaming millennial uncensored.
01:35:06.060 She started in YouTube,
01:35:07.960 20 million views,
01:35:10.360 millions of followers all over the world.
01:35:13.100 She's appeared on Fox,
01:35:14.500 the daily wire,
01:35:15.640 rebel media,
01:35:16.360 Prager,
01:35:16.740 you the Rubin report.
01:35:18.420 And now we're thrilled to have her here on this program.
01:35:22.200 And,
01:35:22.440 and welcome.
01:35:23.760 Thank you so much.
01:35:24.500 You live in Montreal,
01:35:26.560 Canada.
01:35:27.280 Yeah.
01:35:28.160 And it is cold.
01:35:29.600 It is very cold.
01:35:30.740 It's not here.
01:35:31.340 You should move to Texas.
01:35:32.320 It's,
01:35:32.540 it's significantly warmer here.
01:35:34.280 Yes.
01:35:34.680 Yes,
01:35:34.900 it is.
01:35:35.340 And a lot more freedom.
01:35:38.020 Yeah.
01:35:38.800 So Lauren,
01:35:40.720 as we were,
01:35:41.700 we were talking on the air,
01:35:44.500 talking about the unrest that is happening around the country.
01:35:49.500 I don't think people that are conservatives,
01:35:53.560 they don't know the significance of what a nationalist is over in Europe compared to a nationalist here.
01:36:06.360 Nationalist here is not that nationalist over there.
01:36:09.080 That's really bad.
01:36:10.820 They don't,
01:36:11.820 they don't understand the identitarian movement over here where they just say,
01:36:17.180 Hey,
01:36:17.280 look,
01:36:17.520 I'm just,
01:36:18.180 I'm just proud of my,
01:36:19.420 my identity.
01:36:20.140 I'm just proud of my heritage.
01:36:21.980 That doesn't mean the same that it does here.
01:36:24.880 And it seems to me that there are very few conservatives that get that.
01:36:28.460 And you're one of them that really does.
01:36:30.600 Can you explain?
01:36:31.960 For sure.
01:36:32.500 So I guess,
01:36:33.900 and all of this comes from the fact that,
01:36:36.040 you know,
01:36:36.220 if you're on YouTube,
01:36:37.740 Twitter,
01:36:38.000 you're going to get a lot of comments from a lot of different people.
01:36:39.900 There's good and bad to that.
01:36:41.000 But I guess one of the upsides is that there are these movements that I think the mainstream media either ignores or just doesn't talk about correctly that I do get information about.
01:36:50.480 In terms of nationalism,
01:36:51.840 I think,
01:36:52.680 you know,
01:36:53.000 Europe,
01:36:53.380 it's coming out of World War II.
01:36:54.980 So when they hear it,
01:36:55.880 nationalism,
01:36:56.700 they think Hitler,
01:36:57.480 they think Mussolini,
01:36:58.420 of course,
01:36:59.580 huge,
01:36:59.980 huge parts of their history.
01:37:01.600 So for them,
01:37:03.020 the term nationalism,
01:37:04.240 and I think the people who were attacking Trump when he called himself a nationalist,
01:37:07.500 think about this.
01:37:08.420 They're thinking about ethno-nationalism,
01:37:10.180 right?
01:37:10.340 They're thinking about some sort of racial identity,
01:37:12.800 racial purity,
01:37:14.300 nationalism tied to perhaps expansionism by military might.
01:37:17.300 That's what that term means for them.
01:37:18.660 I mean,
01:37:19.400 in the States and in Canada,
01:37:21.160 and even in,
01:37:22.080 I guess,
01:37:22.780 more broadly,
01:37:24.440 political science research and papers,
01:37:27.460 nationalism just means you put the nation first.
01:37:31.060 You,
01:37:31.260 you're,
01:37:31.980 I guess,
01:37:32.260 main area of focus is the nation state,
01:37:34.360 which I would hope that our heads of state would be concerned with the well-being of their states.
01:37:38.880 I just did a deal with ABC television yesterday.
01:37:42.120 Congratulations.
01:37:43.160 No.
01:37:44.140 And,
01:37:44.500 and they just dwelt on this for a while.
01:37:48.000 And I kept saying,
01:37:48.940 but wait,
01:37:49.640 if you understand the way an American conservative looks at nationalism,
01:37:54.480 it means we're proud of our country and we have to take care of our own self first,
01:38:00.360 because then if we're,
01:38:02.940 if we're whole,
01:38:04.560 we can help others.
01:38:06.020 Right.
01:38:06.340 But if we're struggling and we're all in life,
01:38:08.820 life boat,
01:38:09.900 we,
01:38:10.360 none of us have a life boat and we're all using,
01:38:12.120 you know,
01:38:12.420 vests,
01:38:13.240 you know,
01:38:14.480 we can't help anybody.
01:38:15.820 It's like on an airplane.
01:38:16.800 You have to put your own,
01:38:17.720 I guess,
01:38:18.060 oxygen mask on first before you can help anybody else.
01:38:20.740 Exactly.
01:38:21.500 Right.
01:38:21.700 And I think it's kind of frustrating because there's also that double standard with nationalism.
01:38:25.740 If you're from a Western country and call yourself a nationalist,
01:38:28.420 you're immediately a bigot,
01:38:29.640 supremacist,
01:38:30.220 whatever.
01:38:30.780 But I,
01:38:31.100 I really doubt that,
01:38:32.420 you know,
01:38:32.680 a lot of these,
01:38:33.480 I don't know,
01:38:35.040 leftist elites,
01:38:35.740 if they were to hear someone who was,
01:38:37.420 for example,
01:38:37.740 from Palestine,
01:38:38.480 call themselves a nationalist,
01:38:39.400 that they would have the same reaction.
01:38:40.740 So part of me is like,
01:38:41.480 you kind of know the difference.
01:38:42.860 You're,
01:38:43.140 you're just choosing to not enforce it.
01:38:44.980 Isn't the difference.
01:38:47.040 Socialism.
01:38:47.780 Yeah.
01:38:48.280 I mean,
01:38:48.620 if you have the government in charge of everything,
01:38:51.120 and then it kind of gets scary.
01:38:53.540 But if you're a nationalist and you want a very small government,
01:38:56.800 that's incapable of really oppressing anybody who cares.
01:39:01.860 Right.
01:39:02.240 You know what I mean?
01:39:03.000 I think our founders were proud of the country that they,
01:39:06.000 they built,
01:39:06.640 but they didn't want to oppress anybody.
01:39:08.500 And I don't want to impress,
01:39:10.040 oppress anybody.
01:39:11.020 Tell me what you think of.
01:39:12.960 Well,
01:39:13.360 before we leave this,
01:39:14.320 talk to me about,
01:39:15.840 are you following at all what's happening in France with yellow jackets?
01:39:19.600 Right.
01:39:19.800 What are your thoughts on that?
01:39:20.900 Well,
01:39:21.020 I think what we have is,
01:39:23.320 I guess,
01:39:23.600 a populist uprising a little bit there.
01:39:26.180 And,
01:39:26.420 you know,
01:39:26.500 people are going to try to say,
01:39:27.740 oh,
01:39:27.800 this is left versus right.
01:39:29.160 From what I've seen,
01:39:30.080 there are some left-wing policies they're upset about.
01:39:32.740 And there are also some more right-wing policies that they're upset about.
01:39:34.840 I think the,
01:39:35.560 I guess,
01:39:36.360 main thread is that they are upset with their ruling class.
01:39:39.100 They're feeling like they're not represented.
01:39:41.060 And I think a lot of the people,
01:39:43.360 especially like here,
01:39:44.060 we have someone like Ocasio-Cortez in power.
01:39:46.420 Or they're going to talk about,
01:39:47.640 you know,
01:39:48.280 taxing and regulating the middle class to all heck.
01:39:51.640 And that's all well and fine.
01:39:53.040 You can pay for your giant government.
01:39:54.360 But I think these people don't realize that at a certain point,
01:39:56.820 people will break.
01:39:58.060 And if we look at the rising cost of living in France,
01:40:00.320 and I mean,
01:40:01.360 even something like rising crime,
01:40:02.700 people will only stay quiet for so long.
01:40:05.440 Right.
01:40:05.840 And I'm not going to support anything violent.
01:40:08.460 Absolutely not.
01:40:09.220 Not going to support anything to do with vandalizing private property or hurting police.
01:40:13.660 But at the same time,
01:40:14.560 I think these people are just not feeling heard,
01:40:16.780 which is unfortunate because they did just have an election not that long ago.
01:40:19.680 But I think if nothing else,
01:40:22.260 this will serve as sort of a hopefully wake up call for,
01:40:25.580 for the next time they're choosing their leaders.
01:40:27.060 So it's not,
01:40:28.020 I,
01:40:28.340 you know what?
01:40:28.780 It's not,
01:40:30.640 I mean,
01:40:30.880 if I had a choice between a national socialist or the communist,
01:40:35.500 which they did,
01:40:36.120 or Macron,
01:40:36.800 I would have voted for Macron too.
01:40:38.720 However,
01:40:39.180 I would have voted going,
01:40:40.020 that's not the answer.
01:40:41.080 Right.
01:40:41.560 It's not the answer.
01:40:42.120 I don't want these two,
01:40:43.060 but that's not the answer.
01:40:44.400 And because he gained power,
01:40:46.720 the,
01:40:46.920 the,
01:40:47.460 the,
01:40:48.680 the ruling class just thinks,
01:40:51.360 oh,
01:40:51.500 well,
01:40:51.620 we can just keep doing the same stuff,
01:40:53.120 you know,
01:40:54.040 because they're going to vote for who are they going to vote for?
01:40:55.880 Eventually they will vote for one of those two.
01:40:58.460 Right.
01:40:58.860 Because you're not responding to them at all.
01:41:02.040 Right.
01:41:02.400 And that's,
01:41:02.700 what's frustrating.
01:41:03.360 And you see that even in American politics and Canadian politics is that the establishment,
01:41:07.840 they,
01:41:08.780 they're representing their constituents so poorly that it opens up,
01:41:12.880 I guess,
01:41:14.240 more power and room for these fringe elements.
01:41:16.500 And it's like,
01:41:16.980 you know,
01:41:17.240 I can see maybe your average everyday person seeing like,
01:41:20.200 well,
01:41:20.560 I'm not on board with everything they say,
01:41:23.300 but at least they're addressing the issues I care about.
01:41:25.560 That's what happened in Germany.
01:41:26.980 Yeah.
01:41:27.160 That's exactly what happened in Germany.
01:41:29.220 That's what happened with Mussolini.
01:41:30.900 At least the trains run on time.
01:41:33.360 Yeah.
01:41:34.120 That's also what's,
01:41:34.940 that's the danger with the identitarian movement,
01:41:36.920 generation identity in Europe.
01:41:38.120 Cause the same exact thing,
01:41:39.600 the people that wouldn't be on board with them,
01:41:41.600 like saying,
01:41:42.140 no,
01:41:42.360 we,
01:41:42.700 we don't agree with,
01:41:43.760 you know,
01:41:44.040 occupying a mosque,
01:41:45.260 you know,
01:41:45.460 or something like that,
01:41:46.160 or flotillas to stop,
01:41:47.420 you know,
01:41:47.680 people and getting crazy,
01:41:49.040 but they are at least listening to it.
01:41:51.280 They are at least acknowledging that it's an issue.
01:41:53.120 Right.
01:41:53.460 So,
01:41:53.660 okay,
01:41:53.840 fine.
01:41:54.140 So nobody else is saying the same movie.
01:41:55.580 Right.
01:41:55.660 And that's why I pity those people in Europe who are just rational and don't hate anybody,
01:42:01.420 but just,
01:42:02.040 you know,
01:42:02.200 Hey,
01:42:02.880 we can't have open borders.
01:42:04.020 We just can't,
01:42:04.780 we can't for security.
01:42:06.100 You know,
01:42:06.600 we can't because we have these huge welfare states and it's draining us economically.
01:42:09.620 We can't.
01:42:10.320 So those people there by their establishment,
01:42:12.640 they're called hateful,
01:42:13.760 right?
01:42:14.220 I mean,
01:42:14.540 you know,
01:42:14.760 in Germany,
01:42:15.120 you can't criticize immigration on Facebook or else you're going to get the police knocking
01:42:19.040 at your door.
01:42:20.100 And then there are alternatives are unfortunately these identitarian groups who prowl on the internet
01:42:25.620 looking for people who are feeling disenfranchised.
01:42:27.860 And it's just,
01:42:28.820 you need,
01:42:29.400 you need that common sense voice saying,
01:42:31.720 no,
01:42:32.140 like we,
01:42:32.600 it's not either you're an ethno nationalist or open borders advocate.
01:42:36.240 There's an in-between ground,
01:42:37.820 a big in-between ground.
01:42:38.900 So talk to me about an in-between ground that I don't like.
01:42:44.580 And that is Saudi Arabia,
01:42:47.160 you know,
01:42:47.760 because Khashoggi was,
01:42:49.720 I mean,
01:42:50.440 it does not come as a surprise to me.
01:42:52.780 I can't,
01:42:53.880 the shock of our,
01:42:55.640 of our people in Washington,
01:42:57.380 they were like,
01:42:57.820 Oh my gosh.
01:42:58.700 And then I saw the video tape.
01:42:59.960 They would do that?
01:43:00.960 They have two swords on their flag.
01:43:03.000 Yes,
01:43:03.520 they do that.
01:43:05.560 It's just crazy.
01:43:07.060 Yeah.
01:43:07.160 My question is,
01:43:08.680 what are you going to do about it?
01:43:10.120 Right.
01:43:10.500 I mean,
01:43:11.000 I,
01:43:11.500 if you don't,
01:43:12.820 if you don't hang with them,
01:43:14.760 and I don't know exactly what that means and where I would draw the lines on that.
01:43:18.520 But if you don't hang with him,
01:43:19.960 you're going to empower Iran and they are much worse.
01:43:23.900 If you can say that.
01:43:25.440 Right.
01:43:25.680 And that's,
01:43:26.020 that's a really,
01:43:26.600 I guess,
01:43:27.140 hard thing to tread.
01:43:28.660 And especially in the United States,
01:43:30.200 I think anytime you're talking about,
01:43:33.120 what do we do with like blank Middle Eastern power?
01:43:35.500 People are afraid,
01:43:36.160 just please don't invade them.
01:43:38.000 Like,
01:43:38.200 right.
01:43:38.580 And I think we can say that people aren't talking about that right now.
01:43:42.180 Right.
01:43:42.900 And when it comes to,
01:43:44.120 I think Iran and Saudi Arabia,
01:43:45.660 both,
01:43:46.080 I think what the United States can do immediately,
01:43:48.660 that really just concerned its own,
01:43:50.100 I guess,
01:43:50.520 domestic policies.
01:43:51.120 And what Canada can do as well is encourage energy independence.
01:43:54.640 Right.
01:43:55.080 Because let's not ignore the fact that a lot of reasons,
01:43:58.020 a lot of the reason why even someone like Obama was so cuddly,
01:44:01.180 cuddly with the Saudis and is because of the significant amount of oil these
01:44:05.820 people have.
01:44:06.600 Right.
01:44:06.720 And obviously,
01:44:07.540 you know,
01:44:08.160 but we don't need them now.
01:44:09.340 Right.
01:44:09.700 That's the thing.
01:44:10.260 We really don't need them.
01:44:11.340 We should empower ourselves because Canada is extremely energy rich.
01:44:14.700 So is the United States.
01:44:15.660 They don't need to be this huge economic powerhouse,
01:44:18.260 especially not in our lives.
01:44:20.160 And I think in terms of,
01:44:21.320 I guess,
01:44:21.560 just actually being willing to condemn them.
01:44:24.080 One of the few things politically that Canada did recently that I was actually
01:44:27.580 proud of is that when we did say,
01:44:29.700 Hey guys,
01:44:30.200 you know,
01:44:30.360 all of this like jailing of journalists,
01:44:32.660 like,
01:44:32.880 that's not,
01:44:33.720 that's not okay.
01:44:35.320 And,
01:44:35.820 you know,
01:44:36.400 a lot of people hung Canada out to dry for that,
01:44:38.420 which was disappointing.
01:44:39.800 I mean,
01:44:40.040 you can condemn a country's actions without going to invade them or anything like
01:44:45.380 that.
01:44:45.700 We should be able to stand for what,
01:44:47.640 what we believe in.
01:44:48.420 Correct.
01:44:48.840 Correct.
01:44:49.620 Now,
01:44:49.960 the question is this guy's trying to do massive reforms.
01:44:54.880 We all know he makes Tony Soprano look like a girl scout or a boy scout,
01:45:01.580 whichever scout doesn't matter.
01:45:03.040 He would like to join.
01:45:03.980 Yeah.
01:45:04.900 But you have this guy who is,
01:45:10.940 is really nasty,
01:45:13.420 but how do you change the Middle East?
01:45:16.780 If you don't,
01:45:18.260 if you,
01:45:20.100 if you don't want to invade,
01:45:21.420 it's going to take an iron fist because all of their heroes,
01:45:25.080 our hero in Judeo Christian world is Jesus,
01:45:27.460 you know,
01:45:28.260 a peacemaker that doesn't work over there.
01:45:30.680 All of their heroes came with swords.
01:45:32.840 So you have to have an iron fist.
01:45:35.020 We know this is a mob family.
01:45:37.020 Do we support him or do we not support him?
01:45:40.700 Well,
01:45:41.400 something,
01:45:42.140 and this is what I studied university.
01:45:43.720 And this is one of the uncomfortable truths that most people who study the
01:45:47.420 region acknowledge is that the most stability that has been brought to the
01:45:51.540 Middle East has been in the form of these,
01:45:54.220 I guess,
01:45:55.200 authoritarian strong men,
01:45:56.500 but who are secular.
01:45:58.440 Right.
01:45:58.960 And it's,
01:45:59.440 it's funny because this,
01:46:00.540 the,
01:46:00.740 the U S Canada,
01:46:02.120 Britain looking in,
01:46:03.080 we're asking ourselves,
01:46:04.120 where is the Liberty loving,
01:46:06.440 freedom loving,
01:46:07.620 peace loving leader that we're all waiting for.
01:46:10.600 And it's like,
01:46:11.000 well,
01:46:11.320 that's,
01:46:12.400 you're,
01:46:12.820 you're trying to impose these Western values on,
01:46:15.060 on them.
01:46:15.660 Even if there was this messianic figure for Middle Eastern politics,
01:46:19.020 the people wouldn't support him because that's not what their average beliefs are.
01:46:22.340 That's not what the people want.
01:46:23.700 You can't give,
01:46:25.200 like,
01:46:25.620 say,
01:46:25.980 Hey,
01:46:26.120 this is our American style government with our American style values.
01:46:28.960 Embrace it now because that's not where the people are at.
01:46:32.220 And we saw this with the Arab spring.
01:46:33.920 Everyone was cheering the fall of all these dictators,
01:46:36.200 people like Gaddafi,
01:46:37.080 but guess what?
01:46:37.860 Then in came the Muslim brotherhood that was preferable to the people.
01:46:41.200 So I think it's,
01:46:42.160 it's kind of unwise for us Westerners to say like,
01:46:45.380 how do we,
01:46:45.860 how do we bring in the,
01:46:47.560 I don't know that you don't write,
01:46:49.800 you,
01:46:49.940 you don't,
01:46:50.740 you,
01:46:50.860 you read more George Washington,
01:46:53.380 right?
01:46:53.800 Stay out of everybody's business.
01:46:55.460 Right.
01:46:55.920 And I think we can,
01:46:56.620 I think economic development historically has always shown signs of leading people towards
01:47:01.900 freedom and in democracy.
01:47:03.700 So I think we can encourage that where we can,
01:47:07.340 you know,
01:47:07.740 without,
01:47:08.240 I guess,
01:47:08.560 just kind of trying to fund and build new governments.
01:47:11.400 But I mean,
01:47:12.140 saying like,
01:47:12.740 oh yeah,
01:47:13.060 snap our fingers and then they'll all be wearing Uncle Sam costumes or just reading the cart.
01:47:17.280 I don't think that's going to happen.
01:47:19.640 Coming to Saudi Arabia,
01:47:20.800 4th of July.
01:47:21.480 I don't think so.
01:47:23.140 Lauren,
01:47:23.460 thank you so much.

01:48:54.820 It is very rare that I meet somebody of Lauren's age.
01:49:03.380 That is as well read and well rounded and smart as she is.
01:49:09.880 She is a future leader.
01:49:12.340 She is a real leader of,
01:49:15.560 of thought.
01:49:17.300 And it is so exciting to see these millennials.
01:49:20.840 They're just,
01:49:21.580 they're so far ahead of where I was when I was their age.
01:49:25.220 My gosh.
01:49:25.840 I mean,
01:49:26.200 I feel like I was in diapers and picking my nose at 30.
01:49:29.340 I've been telling my kids now,
01:49:30.680 I was like,
01:49:30.860 get focused now.
01:49:31.800 Cause the age is getting younger and younger.
01:49:33.760 My daughter's 16.
01:49:34.660 I'm like,
01:49:34.960 get focused now.
01:49:35.920 That's what I'm telling my son too.
01:49:38.540 And you know,
01:49:38.880 what's weird is this the way it used to be before we had,
01:49:43.200 you know,
01:49:43.600 school,
01:49:44.080 the way it is now you were considered,
01:49:47.300 you know,
01:49:48.000 go ahead,
01:49:48.800 go out and do something.
01:49:49.700 When you were 16,
01:49:51.420 you know,
01:49:51.820 George Washington was,
01:49:53.000 was surveying land for money at 14 alone without a gun in Indian territory.
01:50:00.320 And he didn't mind.
01:50:01.080 He was like,
01:50:01.600 you know,
01:50:01.820 can you imagine,
01:50:03.000 Hey mom and dad,
01:50:03.900 I know I'm only 14,
01:50:04.960 but I'm going to go over here in this unexplored area where there's wild beasts and,
01:50:10.760 and what everybody says are savage Indians.
01:50:13.920 And I'm just going to go out there and I'm just going to make some maps for the guy down the street.
01:50:17.780 He said,
01:50:18.260 he's going to pay me.
01:50:19.220 I might be gone a couple of months.
01:50:20.940 Okay.
01:50:21.780 Make sure you stop in when you come back.
01:50:24.100 I'm you.
01:50:24.740 Never.
01:50:25.200 Would you do that?
01:50:26.920 Never.
01:50:27.380 Would you do that?
01:50:28.120 And yet for some reason we just look at our kids as their nincompoops and they're not,
01:50:34.180 they're very,
01:50:34.920 very smart.
01:50:35.520 We just keep making them into kids.
01:50:37.120 Maybe that's because of my generation.
01:50:38.360 Cause I was,
01:50:39.200 I just completely blew off school.
01:50:40.720 Really?
01:50:41.240 I didn't care why it was that same for you.
01:50:43.380 Oh my gosh.
01:50:43.900 Yes.
01:50:44.140 I didn't really start studying until I was in my thirties.
01:50:46.520 Amen.
01:50:48.160 Amen.
01:50:49.100 I read whatever I wanted to for entertainment and I skated through school.
01:50:53.660 I was smart enough just to get through it and get good grades.
01:50:57.680 And you know,
01:50:58.440 it's always a fear of being caught that I hadn't really done the work.
01:51:02.960 And until I start,
01:51:04.340 until I was 30,
01:51:04.900 when it started to matter where I was like,
01:51:07.560 I should know this.
01:51:09.340 I,
01:51:09.800 you know,
01:51:10.080 I'm kind of a dummy that you actually start applying yourself.
01:51:15.820 And here are these kids now that,
01:51:17.200 that are applying themselves.
01:51:19.740 You know,
01:51:20.260 when you're supposed to apply yourself,
01:51:21.880 they're going to be so far ahead.
01:51:24.580 Will that put universities out of business?
01:51:26.280 You think one day?
01:51:27.060 Yes.
01:51:27.340 Oh yes.
01:51:28.000 Cause they literally are learning this on YouTube.
01:51:30.600 Universities.
01:51:31.180 It's over.
01:51:31.940 It's over.
01:51:32.440 It's only a matter of time.
01:51:33.940 The university system,
01:51:35.320 as we know it is over.
01:51:36.920 There will be those for doctors and other professions,
01:51:39.780 but not this mass thing.
01:51:41.900 Like we have now.
