00:00:00.000
The Blaze Radio Network, on demand, Glenn Beck.
00:00:08.340
Well, the deplatforming of Alex Jones continues.
00:00:12.180
Now, besides his own website, Twitter was the only other option for Jones to distribute
00:00:17.880
his content, even though Facebook, YouTube, Apple, Pinterest, Spotify, Stitcher had all
00:00:25.640
near simultaneously kicked him out, Twitter allowed both his InfoWars accounts and his
00:00:34.780
But then, Wednesday, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom,
00:00:43.580
Twitter is the last platform, and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey is the only advocate you have.
00:00:50.780
I'm just going out on a limb here and say you should probably treat him nicely and with some
00:01:06.200
Well, he tracked down the Twitter CEO and screamed at him.
00:01:10.440
You know, I mean, that's what every rational person would do.
00:01:17.060
Hey, Jack, I appreciate you supporting the First Amendment, but I have a right to face my
00:01:21.040
accusers, Jack, and I never threaten the media with battle rifles.
00:01:28.500
You unverified me and call me a white supremacist.
00:01:32.940
So Alex Jones, you know, he flies up to see Jack and approach him, as all reasonable people
00:01:43.340
And that takes about a total of about 40 seconds tops.
00:01:58.400
You are a charlatan that goes around lying about people to destroy the First Amendment.
00:02:05.620
And CNN is a giant fraud that hated the world over.
00:02:15.580
You think you can gaslight people and call for censorship and then a day later say you
00:02:21.300
Alex Jones is an idiot and a moron, but he has a right to speak.
00:02:34.240
He is, however, not the only one being untruthful here.
00:02:38.220
Darcy did lead a campaign to pressure tech companies to kick Jones off the platforms.
00:02:43.720
He specifically lobbied both Facebook and Twitter.
00:02:47.480
So Jones does have a legitimate reason to be mad, but he's a moron and you don't have
00:02:57.220
By the way, when he first saw him, he's like, oh, there he is, Oliver Darcy.
00:03:08.260
And I wrote to Oliver and I said, I'm sorry, Oliver.
00:03:10.900
I am getting so big and fat now that I apparently can shed an adult male from my loins and not
00:03:22.460
OK, so Jones was now permanently suspended from Twitter.
00:03:42.580
Both Alex Jones personal account and the InfoWars account is now gone for good.
00:03:48.360
Now, before anyone cares to celebrate, think about how dangerous of a precedent this is.
00:03:55.740
Social media platforms have banned Alex Jones based off of the mob, a public outcry, a CNN
00:04:07.360
All of this was brought to a head and he was kicked off.
00:04:11.600
It begins with someone like Alex Jones that's easy to dismiss.
00:04:18.400
Because censorship, whether from the government or from a private company, builds like a snowball.
00:04:25.300
Once it gets its first head, it will start rolling and get larger and larger.
00:04:32.140
Meanwhile, Louis Farrakhan and even Hamas, a known stated terrorist organization, still
00:04:44.720
In fact, Hamas not only has Twitter, but all social media and all tech companies are subjectively
00:04:53.580
deciding who stays, who gets banned without any consistency at all.
00:04:58.400
If Hamas has a voice in America, how does Alex Jones not have one?
00:05:13.700
He is, he is also a, I think he is a, he's a poison in our system.
00:05:21.000
But he has a right and you have a right to not listen to him or to block him or to follow
00:05:28.400
All of these platforms claim they're not biased, but when Hamas is still having a voice on your
00:05:37.560
platform and Alex Jones doesn't, I don't get it.
00:05:48.340
However, I can't understand the error of your way.
00:05:55.480
Because why aren't you hassling Facebook and Twitter over Hamas and over Louis Farrakhan
00:06:07.080
If you're trying to say, well, what are the rules?
00:06:23.100
Who will be the next small-time media outlet or personality to be de-platformed?
00:06:30.340
Everyone, every voice on all sides should begin to look over their shoulder.
00:07:01.600
So, he was in the Senate yesterday, and he, this is definitely not grandstanding or, you
00:07:09.160
know, just trying to bring the spotlight to yourself.
00:07:22.620
I will go and be the, the sacrificial lamb for your God.
00:07:28.720
So, he ties himself up, and he throws himself on a bundle of sticks, and he's like, go ahead.
00:07:37.700
And then everybody looks at him and is like, we don't want to set you on fire.
00:07:50.680
Here's the moment yesterday that is quite possibly one of the most embarrassing, uh, cries for attention.
00:07:58.940
And remember, you're in competition now with Alex Jones.
00:08:02.580
Most embarrassing cry for, please somebody pay attention to me, that I have ever seen.
00:08:09.060
And I understand that that, the penalty comes with potential ousting from the Senate.
00:08:13.220
And if Senator Cornyn believes that I violated Senate rules, I, I, I openly invite and accept the consequences of my team releasing that email right now.
00:08:24.000
And I'm releasing it to expose that, number one, the emails that are being withheld from the public have nothing to do with national security.
00:08:34.820
Now, I appreciate the comments of my colleagues.
00:08:36.940
This is about the closest I'll probably ever have in my life to an I am Spartacus moment.
00:08:56.060
In the movie, Spartacus, Kurt Russell plays Spartacus.
00:09:00.240
And, uh, at one point he is a slave and he is with all these other slaves that have been rounded up.
00:09:10.240
They're sitting in a valley and the Romans want to know you look, I, we have no problem with the rest of you.
00:09:21.300
We're going to slaughter every single one of you.
00:09:23.400
Unless you tell us which one of you is Spartacus and, and he realizes that, oh my gosh, everyone's going to be killed because they're looking for me and I can't let that happen.
00:09:41.380
And so I will stand up to the power and I will stand up and say, I am Spartacus.
00:09:48.180
But as he stands up to others, stand up with him.
00:09:51.340
And before he can say, I am Spartacus, somebody else says, I am Spartacus.
00:09:57.720
And before you know it, everybody in the valley is standing up saying, I am Spartacus.
00:10:02.260
This is much better for, for the monologue I just did.
00:10:07.760
If I would have, if I would have finished that monologue and said, and by the way, first they come for Alex Jones and I don't like Alex Jones, but if you're going to come for somebody, then I am Alex Jones.
00:10:23.240
That's an, I am Spartacus moment, not, oh, you know what?
00:10:27.180
I got some, I got some documents that have nothing to do with national security.
00:10:31.860
And in fact, nothing to do even with the judge that we're talking about.
00:10:36.660
And I'm going to pretend that these are really, really super sensitive and I'm going to break all the rules when actually all the documents that you're, you're showing here, they've already been approved.
00:10:55.140
And so you're standing up and going, I am going, you know what I'm going to do?
00:11:04.780
I'm going to go to the gym and I'm going to come home.
00:11:07.440
I'm going to take a shower and then I'm going to get into my car and I'm going to be in my office by 9.
00:11:23.300
I mean, first of all, we shouldn't dismiss the way he actually put it, which is this is as close as I'll come to an I am Spartacus moment, which for me, it's probably true for Cory Booker.
00:11:32.260
The exact opposite of an I am Spartacus moment is as close as he will come.
00:11:36.240
But what's interesting about the I am Spartacus moment is that at its core is a moment of anonymity.
00:11:45.720
It's about it's about it's about hiding the identity of someone doing something principled or whatever.
00:11:53.940
Well, at its core, it's core is I'm willing to sacrifice for I'm willing to tell the truth of who I am, which Cory Booker didn't do yesterday, of who I really am to save everyone else.
00:12:13.500
It was about everybody else standing up going, no, sit out.
00:12:16.760
Yeah, everyone else joining together for a principled cause to hide the identity of the person who was leading it.
00:12:24.400
All this moment was about was please, everyone in America, look at me.
00:12:31.820
Chuck Grassley in the middle of this thing is going, can you please just stop repeating yourself?
00:12:41.440
No, I've got lots of campaign commercials to make.
00:12:44.140
It's all about trying to get eyeballs on Cory Booker so you notice he's different than Kamala Harris or whatever Joe Biden, whoever else runs in 2020.
00:12:54.280
So instead of, you know, it's an act of taking on something that, you know, it's about hiding someone else's identity who is principled.
00:13:05.500
Like if someone else stood up and said, I released those documents, not Cory Booker, I released them.
00:13:11.280
And then another person stood up and said, I released those documents.
00:13:14.360
Of course, other people were saying I released those documents.
00:13:16.540
The problem was they worked for the Bush administration.
00:13:21.060
It's like as if the Romans said, yeah, we're not really looking for Spartacus.
00:13:34.220
Let me tell you a let me tell you a very this this a very important story in history.
00:13:40.520
You know, the story of Jebediah and and Cletus.
00:13:47.380
It was a it was a Friday night and and they they they got together Friday early, early, early in the morning.
00:13:55.280
And Cletus just pushed his chair away from the table.
00:14:01.780
And Jebediah said, what are you talking about, ladies?
00:14:04.640
And Cletus said, what are you going to betray me?
00:14:09.320
I am just going right now to the church and to the government.
00:14:13.760
And I'm just going to turn myself in right now.
00:14:16.740
And and Cletus did and he stood there in front of the police station and the church and he said, I am Cletus and I will tell you right now, you can go ahead and drive those nails through my hands.
00:14:32.740
And the priest opened up the window and he's like, please, what the hell are you talking about?
00:14:40.160
I am Cletus and I know you're after me for what I say.
00:14:44.580
And then the police come out and they're like, Cletus, no, we're not.
00:14:50.500
In fact, you showed up in your police officer uniform.
00:14:57.200
Well, you can do whatever you want or say whatever you want.
00:15:13.000
I want I would like to pass a law that every senator and every congressman and every person in the media need to start driving clown cars.
00:15:26.660
I mean, the circus of this we are in what you're watching is the 2020 election.
00:15:35.540
Would it be so much better if Kavanaugh sitting at the table and this little car drives up and then all of the senators get out of the car?
00:15:43.080
You're like, how do they get all the senators in that car?
00:15:57.800
Casper mattress is just a great, great mattress.
00:16:01.860
If you are looking for a new mattress, they're hard.
00:16:07.480
And you go into the stores and, you know, you lay down on a bed and you feel stupid.
00:16:24.820
But if you slept on that thing, your your back would be killing you.
00:16:29.040
How many times have you gone to a mattress store and felt that way and then bought a mattress and you're like, OK, I hate this damn thing.
00:16:38.180
The best way to buy a mattress is to actually sleep on it for a couple of weeks.
00:16:45.660
And if you don't love it, they come and pick it up.
00:17:02.220
Fifty dollars towards the purchase of your select mattresses at Casper dot com slash Glenn promo code Glenn.
00:17:13.300
Sometimes they'll say leave the second end off for.
00:17:33.860
Donald Trump spoke for two hours and he couldn't say the word anonymous.
00:17:42.360
We should do an in-depth study on other words he couldn't say in a speech.
00:17:51.440
But at the same time they're doing this, they're wondering why they're irrelevant.
00:17:55.360
And they completely miss the fact that Joe Rogan is now the king of media.
00:18:02.100
I think it's official and I hate to use the word media because I don't think it's exactly right for him because it's not media.
00:18:11.300
It's just like a place where people who are hanging out, who just want to know about something that actually maybe is interesting, informative or actually affects their life.
00:18:22.700
That's where they go to listen and hear Joe Rogan.
00:18:27.440
Remember, this is the guy who originally was having you eat spiders on Fear Factor.
00:18:31.880
OK, hey, can you put that spider in your mouth?
00:18:34.400
This guy is now the the one who had Elon Musk on yesterday for two hours and 45 minutes.
00:18:44.400
And Elon Musk, it was it's an amazing interview, amazing interview.
00:18:50.620
There's so much to mine in the two hours and 45 minutes.
00:19:02.360
Potentially questionable tactics for a CEO in crisis.
00:19:05.940
Yeah, I would think that that doesn't make you look the most stable, but I don't think that's what Elon Musk is going for.
00:19:13.180
Yeah, he's a billionaire and he's living a billionaire's life.
00:19:28.400
So the media that while the media is talking about absolute, it's a game.
00:19:37.700
There's a ton of people out there that aren't playing a game.
00:19:44.100
And it used to be, I used to look at Joe Rogan and say, look how far ahead he is.
00:19:50.360
And now I look at Joe Rogan and I say, look how clueless the media is.
00:20:07.180
Let's go back to some Glenn Beck Program first principles.
00:20:17.660
One of the other first principles of the program has been, there's going to come a time when
00:20:23.100
everybody's going to be angry and everybody's going to say, you got to come over here.
00:20:27.860
And you have to calmly stand there and say, no, I am not going with you.
00:20:35.180
For a long, long time, I have not been able to give you an answer other than anything based
00:20:54.840
Because my gut has been saying, there's going to come a time when we're going to be pulled
00:21:12.820
And nobody wants to hear that because they think that that is capitulating.
00:21:17.740
And I guess in some ways, I can really understand that.
00:21:24.840
And I can understand how that message might have sounded.
00:21:27.380
But I have now spent about four years where, four years ago, I was out.
00:21:44.940
I, there's no reason for me to even exist and do this job.
00:21:54.520
Then, two years ago, I started, I started noticing some things and not feeling comfortable.
00:22:04.300
Trying, doing the same thing that I did when, when we found modern progressives.
00:22:08.700
And once you understood the early 20th century modern progressive, once you understood Woodrow Wilson, and everybody was like, oh, shut up about Woodrow Wilson.
00:22:19.000
Once you understood that, once you understood the cabal that he put around himself, once you understood the, the way that modern advertising was developed for propaganda.
00:22:33.960
Once you understood that, and you understood the, the eugenics movement here in America that leapt over the water back into Germany and planted the seeds of the Holocaust.
00:22:46.040
All of a sudden, you could go, okay, there's a difference between a liberal and a progressive.
00:22:51.680
And most progressives don't have any idea what they're talking about.
00:22:56.020
They have no understanding of, of what that movement really is.
00:23:10.720
Then, I started hearing the, the hypocrisy beyond hypocrisy.
00:23:19.900
People could march in the street against fascism.
00:23:24.280
And they themselves were advocating for fascist outcomes.
00:23:34.040
This is when I came very late to the table and really started doing my homework on postmodernism.
00:23:43.440
Postmodernism, if you understand this, you will understand how to fight.
00:23:53.620
Postmodernism is the idea that I can destroy the modern world.
00:24:05.460
And what I mean by the prop, the modern world, and this is really important, is the age of enlightenment.
00:24:11.960
Now, remember, the age of enlightenment is called enlightenment because it came and brought us out of the dark ages.
00:24:20.360
Where nothing had meaning except for what the people up at the top said had meaning.
00:24:25.200
Well, early on in Germany, they had a real problem with enlightenment principles because it brought you, you are in charge of your own life, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
00:24:42.260
So the postmodernists got together and decided we have to destroy the patriarchy.
00:24:52.640
We have to destroy anything, anything that revolves around reason that holds this system up.
00:25:03.960
Well, what they're trying to create is hatred, animosity, and chaos.
00:25:14.140
Because we don't realize what their real goal is and that these are all just tactics made to make you enraged.
00:25:25.980
made to get you to respond in an angry way instead of laughing them off and saying, oh, you cute little postmodernist.
00:25:37.240
Now, let me explain why postmodernism doesn't work.
00:25:44.860
If you want to win, because right now there are people who do not agree with you on who to vote for.
00:25:50.960
But they are looking at people like like Keith Ellison or look at Linda Sarsour and they're Democrats and they've always voted for the Democratic Party.
00:26:08.260
I don't think she's an actual feminist, at least the way I see it.
00:26:32.260
Called people who want a bigger welfare state, socialists and communists, those people who just believe in a bigger helping hand from the government.
00:26:51.540
And their defenses go up and we push them into the arms of people who do want to destroy those things.
00:27:04.360
Look how many people have been pushed to excuse people like Steve Bannon or Milo Yepinopoulos.
00:27:14.480
How many people excuse those things that wouldn't have.
00:27:19.460
How many of us are excusing things in Washington right now that 20 years ago, there's no way in hell we would have ever even accepted or tolerated.
00:27:29.560
We're now raising the flag and going, yeah, but your side, that's the problem.
00:27:39.120
Because the extremes have pushed us against each other.
00:28:07.040
I am calling on you now to say this is the time.
00:28:13.480
If you've been listening to me for a long time and I said there's going to come a time.
00:28:17.220
It's right now because this is only going to get worse.
00:28:26.380
You have to be able to spot this and you have to be able to defuse it.
00:28:40.120
My journey on this has been almost a straight up incline.
00:29:04.320
And I'd like to write it again because it's such a steep incline.
00:29:11.160
But I want you to get the very basic idea of that we are addicted now.
00:29:18.520
There is science that shows you are addicted to Twitter, to Facebook, to your phone, to social media, and more importantly, to outrage.
00:29:37.200
We've had guests on from social media that have left social media who helped design it, who are now saying, we designed this to be addictive.
00:29:49.660
We're addicted to the social media and we're addicted to outrage.
00:29:57.920
Because when you're outraged, when you're angry, you stop thinking.
00:30:07.620
How many times do you lose your temper, you get upset, and then you have to go back and apologize and say, I'm sorry, I just flew off the handle.
00:30:17.920
Because when you feel your back is up against the wall, your animal instinct, which is to preserve humanity.
00:30:29.460
When you're put up against the wall, your instinct is to fight back or to flee.
00:30:41.840
But you have to know, you have to know how their perverted anti-logic works.
00:30:55.280
And that's what the book will give you, Addicted to Outrage.
00:31:03.980
Today, is today the first day that the tickets are on for sale for the general public?
00:31:11.000
Some of the tickets come with a signed book and everything else.
00:31:14.440
But, you know, even if you can't afford that, I think the tickets are like $30 or $37, something like that.
00:31:29.700
I'm telling you, you will learn more from this book.
00:31:32.680
And in the stage tour, we'll have a lot of fun as well.
00:31:38.380
We have to come together on the understanding of what's really going on.
00:31:44.100
And it has nothing to do with the daily squabbles about Kavanaugh.
00:31:52.280
It has everything to do with literally the destruction of the Western world and literally the destruction of reason.
00:32:06.420
Your side cannot be the Democrats or the Republicans because that's not what the battle is here.
00:32:13.140
Your side is reason, enlightenment, open and honest conversation, the Bill of Rights.
00:32:30.840
And because I have that right, I have to protect your right.
00:32:37.600
This is the beginning of that fascistic silencing of voices, which is critical.
00:32:44.820
And if you understand what what was set out out of frustration in the 1950s, where the communists were like, these Americans, they are never going to do it.
00:32:59.440
That's when a group of people got together and said, oh, we can cause them to have a revolution.
00:33:06.120
We're going to make everyone their own unique little class, and we're going to show them how they've been held down by the white male and the Western hierarchy.
00:33:20.160
Because then they'll rise up and they'll destroy it all.
00:33:32.400
Available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and everything else.
00:33:39.580
I was up at the ranch up north, what, last week?
00:33:59.680
Uh, I've got a, I've got a mountain, uh, that is about 10,000 feet.
00:34:06.420
I don't know about a, probably the foot of it is about a mile away from my front door.
00:34:12.040
I could not see that mountain because of the smoke from the forest fires.
00:34:26.640
We are breathing in crap right now that, uh, we, we, we're not supposed to be breathing in.
00:34:33.560
And you would not believe how much crap is in the air.
00:34:37.020
I mean, it normal crap, but now because of the forest fires all over the country, you're breathing in stuff you shouldn't.
00:34:43.000
And your air filter is probably black filter by go to filter by.com.
00:34:49.620
They're America's leading provider of eight batch filters for homes and businesses.
00:34:55.920
And if you're a company and you've got some monstrosity like I do in the back of the studios here, you're probably going to need to have it custom made.
00:35:02.880
They're all made right here in America and you can save 5% right now if you order, uh, and have auto replacement.
00:35:10.420
So in other words, it'll just show up at your door.
00:35:19.900
Otherwise I'm going to change my filter when I move.
00:35:37.500
Well, the good thing is Twitter has gotten rid of Alex Jones.
00:35:42.140
Uh, yet Twitter is okay with Hamas having a voice here in America, which is kind of weird.
00:35:55.040
There's a, there's an interesting list of counts.
00:36:42.300
This one should be interesting when we come back.
00:36:49.640
I want to start this hour with a personal note.
00:36:53.320
For the very first time in, I don't, I don't know how long, um, my hands are even a little
00:37:06.600
shaky and I, I have, I am nervous to share with you something from my private life.
00:37:15.160
Um, and I, um, am going to, uh, this weekend in a special podcast and then we're going to talk
00:37:30.980
Um, and I'm, I'm nervous about, um, talking to you about it, um, because it is so, um, personal
00:37:40.100
and it involves my family and I, uh, Tanya and I have talked about it and we feel that this
00:37:50.720
happened to us for a reason and, uh, we should share it, but I am so uncomfortable sharing it.
00:38:07.520
If you subscribe to my podcast now, you will get it.
00:38:14.780
Um, it was something that came out in the recording of a podcast that, uh, I had, I had been praying
00:38:20.960
on this for a while and, uh, it just felt like it was time to say it.
00:38:28.980
Um, but I didn't go into great detail on it, but we will, um, to some degree on Monday.
00:38:37.520
Uh, uh, the, the, the parts that you need to know will go into on, um, on Monday.
00:38:47.340
So if you are not a subscriber, uh, to the podcast, go to, I don't know, iTunes or wherever
00:38:56.200
you subscribe and get the podcast that'll be coming out this weekend.
00:39:00.100
And, uh, as I said, uh, we will talk about it, uh, openly and, uh, and as clear as I can
00:39:19.360
We didn't talk about this in advance and I didn't plan on this advance, but prayed before
00:39:27.180
So I feel, um, compelled to share something that you know about that nobody else knows
00:39:37.540
You say you feel guilty, you know, why are my kids?
00:40:00.100
Let's go to, uh, let's go to Bill O'Reilly on the Glenn Beck program.
00:40:14.600
I guess either we could either start with Woodward or Kavanaugh, which do you prefer?
00:40:20.900
Um, I think Kavanaugh is the more important story for, uh, your listeners.
00:40:30.900
Kavanaugh is in my opinion, a guy who, I mean, he's teaching at a Jesuit school.
00:40:37.480
So I, I, I'm not sure, you know, the, the Jesuits are letting somebody in that I'm always
00:40:46.300
Uh, so I'm not sure that you're going to get a better pick, uh, more right down the center
00:40:55.540
And the left is, is acting as if, you know, you're, you're putting, you know, uh, uh, and
00:41:04.340
Moses up there who is going to say, no, it's only these 10 laws.
00:41:15.260
Number one, that most Americans don't follow the Supreme court.
00:41:27.520
Now the news people, personal people listen to this radio program, um, come to my, uh,
00:41:35.500
They know, um, and they know that for the past 20 years that the culture has changed dramatically.
00:41:50.940
Why now, uh, can't we speak about things, um, and not being, uh, without being accused
00:41:58.300
of being, uh, a racist or homophobe or, you know, all of that.
00:42:02.300
So the PC culture has enveloped every American.
00:42:05.360
You say one word out of line, you can lose your job.
00:42:20.120
If, uh, if somebody wants you to bake a cake and you don't really like what the cake is
00:42:26.100
going to be used for, you have to bake the cake or go to the Supreme court and spend a
00:42:34.380
And, and this is why people need to pay attention because all of this happened through the courts,
00:42:43.860
Um, all of this change in the culture was imposed on the American citizen by judges, many of whom
00:42:55.800
are activist, liberal judges, because the conservative movement there, all they want to do is keep
00:43:04.280
No, they don't, they're not looking to impose anything.
00:43:08.100
So in gay marriage, they just said, well, we really don't like gay marriage because we
00:43:12.480
feel that, uh, marriage is, uh, a sacrament and, and should be only between man and woman.
00:43:22.080
Um, so now with Trump putting forth two moderate traditional judges, they're not conservative
00:43:31.500
bomb throwers, they're moderate traditional judges.
00:43:35.160
This trend is likely to stop this PC imposition on every American is likely to stop.
00:43:43.780
That's why you're seeing these people in the chamber screaming, screeching, um, and you're
00:43:52.700
seeing the far left Democrats on a judiciary committee doing everything they can to stop
00:44:00.980
it because they know that the PC culture, the, the progressive culture is not going to be
00:44:20.420
May I, may I present a different, uh, take slightly different take and get your thoughts on it.
00:44:26.900
I think there are, there are things that are happening right now, uh, and you have to divide
00:44:33.840
You have the real true post-modernist Marxist groups, the, the, you know, the, uh,
00:44:40.980
uh, the, the, the, the head of the snake here of the Linda Sarsuers that are out of step
00:44:47.660
with almost everyone except those post-modernist markets that want, uh, Marxists that want to
00:44:53.580
destroy reason, destroy the West divide and conquer.
00:44:58.780
Those people are very clear and they, I would agree, um, want to stop anyone.
00:45:04.720
Uh, Kavanaugh doesn't matter who it is unless you're a post-modernist Marxist, they're going
00:45:09.500
to scream and yell, but part of their reason for doing that is they need the chaos and the
00:45:15.380
Well, that's when you get into the next group, the next group of the politicians that are
00:45:21.420
They think they're using them, but it's the opposite way around.
00:45:24.600
They've been using those people for fuel to get people to rally around the Democrats or
00:45:32.340
And so they're, they're using the, the legitimate, uh, post-modern, uh, anger, uh, and they are
00:45:43.580
The media is just doing it because they're with one of those groups, uh, and they get ratings
00:45:52.680
Do you believe that the, that there is a growing number of average Democrats that are not into
00:46:06.780
And they're not the kind that, you know, like to sit in a room and be told, sit down, shut
00:46:15.640
Those people are starting to peel away or will start to peel away.
00:46:22.680
I don't know what the numbers are about those people.
00:46:26.760
Um, I think younger American Democrats are happy with the radicalization of the party.
00:46:34.980
They have been raised in a sense of entitlement.
00:46:43.420
Um, but 45 and down, I think they're happy that we have, uh, Elizabeth Warren saying, Hey,
00:46:57.900
The older Democrats, I think may be, uh, fed up with it, but their problem is that they,
00:47:09.040
the Republican party has been demonized to the extent that they say, well, where am I
00:47:19.940
Um, so I'm not sure the numbers there are going to be significant.
00:47:28.680
Let's go to, uh, let's go to Bob Woodward's book.
00:47:41.700
I've had him on, uh, my programs, dozens of times, uh, his reporting of Watergate was
00:47:49.160
honest, but I, I wrote a column about how he did this.
00:47:54.980
Uh, I don't know how much time we have before Stu has to go to the men's room.
00:48:02.160
Let me give you, let me give you the outline of it.
00:48:04.520
You walk into a publisher's office and you know this better than anyone because you're
00:48:20.820
So Woodward says, I'm going to do a book on Trump and the chaos within the Trump administration.
00:48:29.520
Now he can't come back six months later and go, you know what?
00:48:34.440
I found that there's a lot of good things going on in the Trump administration.
00:48:45.520
So he casts a wide net in Washington and he knows everybody.
00:48:59.660
And every single one of them say, well, you can't use my name.
00:49:10.320
So then he writes down what they say or records what they say.
00:49:13.720
And then he says, Woodward says, how can I verify this?
00:49:20.480
I told him exactly the same thing on the day it happened.
00:49:27.360
And then he calls Lenny and he goes, oh, yeah, yeah.
00:49:34.420
Well, what is the difference between these unnamed sources and deep throat?
00:49:40.680
Um, specificity, because you were basically what Woodward and Bernstein were reporting on
00:49:49.800
in Watergate were very specific allegations that Nixon was ordering payments to people,
00:50:04.880
But so, you know, and I know you know this, this book is not about an investigation on
00:50:12.000
It's about how is this how is this administration operating or at least at the time?
00:50:20.120
And that's I'm glad you brought that up, Beck, because when we come back from break, I will
00:50:25.300
tell you why Trump is handling this all wrong, all wrong and how this book could help him.
00:50:34.880
If he could figure it out, which he never will, because he don't listen to anybody, which
00:50:41.720
OK, we'll have with Bill O'Reilly in just a second.
00:50:44.500
Want to share some feedback that we've gotten from our partners at Palm Beach Letter, the
00:50:51.400
Ninety seven percent of the listeners have given his crypto course a four or five star rating.
00:51:01.700
Another person I knew very little from various sources, but the how to pieces were all missing.
00:51:09.600
I now have a better grasp on what cryptocurrency is and how to buy it if I want to.
00:51:15.860
I was less than a novice when I started this course.
00:51:18.920
The lessons were clear and concise, although still apprehensive.
00:51:21.900
I believe the course has given me the confidence to actually invest in cryptocurrency or at least
00:51:34.240
We asked Tika to to put this together and to give you the basic understanding of what
00:51:39.120
cryptocurrency is, what the block chain is, why it's why it is game changing and why I
00:51:46.000
believe everybody should have, you know, at least one hundred dollars in it.
00:51:49.280
You should never put a lot of money into this because it could all go to hell, but it also
00:52:14.380
Bill O'Reilly is here now to tell us how Donald Trump should handle the wayward, the Woodward
00:52:22.080
Yeah, I mean, I just can't understand why, because as you know, I've known Trump for so
00:52:28.160
long, why he just cannot step back for a second and see that he has helped Woodward, that he
00:52:40.760
OK, first of all, who cares about the Woodward book back?
00:52:51.400
Let's let's let's let's go a little deeper on that.
00:52:54.440
The reason why is because there's nothing new here.
00:52:58.620
I'm going to learn from four hundred and twenty three pages of Trump bashing.
00:53:07.220
So Trump supporters, they don't care about the book.
00:53:14.460
The people who hate Trump, they already know that they hate him.
00:53:22.140
It's like the it's going to be a guy's book, but it's going to be a big book.
00:53:26.940
I think it's going to sell out well in the long run.
00:53:33.660
It may not have the legs that a book like this would have had in the past five years ago.
00:53:40.420
You know, how many times are you going to have to read the same thing?
00:53:47.700
So, nobody cares really about this book in the sense that it matters to anybody's life.
00:54:02.760
Number two, after all these interviews and all of these people trashing Trump from within his own organization,
00:54:11.700
none of them tell Woodward, hey, Trump admitted that he and Vlad Putin were vacationing in the Maldives talking about the campaign.
00:54:28.240
Not one mention of any collusion with the Russians or anything.
00:54:38.260
So, here's the best reporter, investigative reporter.
00:54:41.540
The establishment says he's the best in the world.
00:54:59.720
He's got tape recordings talking to people, and they're saying whatever they say.
00:55:08.580
And I don't understand why the White House isn't smarter at this point in history.
00:55:15.520
Bill, I mean, this is a great example of it, I think, today, in that you have all of these stories and all the controversy and all the back and forth.
00:55:22.720
And, by the way, the unemployment rate came out today.
00:55:34.100
I mean, so I think that's built in, again, that the economy is good.
00:55:42.200
I think he did a seven-hour speech last night in Montana.
00:55:45.760
I think he's still speaking, by the way, about, you know, how good the economy is.
00:55:52.480
I heard, though, that he's going to start demanding everybody comb their hair the way he does.
00:56:02.260
You know what's amazing, Bill, is the guy who cuts his hair.
00:56:07.060
That is everybody, everybody wants to know, I mean, how does that work, et cetera, et cetera.
00:56:14.300
I think he made Donald Trump sign a nondisclosure saying, you can never tell anyone I'm the guy who cuts your hair.
00:56:27.000
You know, it's funny that Fox News carries the whole speech.
00:56:31.020
And they basically say, look, this is great because none of you people have to come to work today.
00:56:37.460
But they lose sponsor time because they don't cut the break.
00:56:51.460
Anyway, we've just talked about Bob Woodward's book coming out and the things that are in the book there.
00:57:00.980
It's a time capsule of the way his office was running at the beginning.
00:57:08.960
And I didn't think there was anything new in it.
00:57:11.580
If you take out all the he said, she said stuff, which you're never going to be able to verify unless he releases the tapes.
00:57:16.800
You know, there was nothing new in there at all about Donald Trump, even.
00:57:25.300
But there was another thing that happened the very next day.
00:57:28.240
And that was the New York Times op ed of some anonymous high ranking senior official that is is pretty much admitted to a secret combination or a cabal that tried to talk about.
00:57:46.800
The invoking the 25th Amendment, which means, you know, he's incapacitated or too crazy for office.
00:57:53.360
They didn't, quote, want to cause a constitutional crisis.
00:57:56.820
So instead, they're working behind the scenes to thwart what he wants to do.
00:58:03.820
Bill, is is there any way that this is constitutional or legal or good that you can see?
00:58:11.880
Because even though you work for president, you have freedom of speech.
00:58:16.800
I mean, I mean, this is this is not a constitutional rule of law.
00:58:20.980
If you're working for him to be able to go into his office to say, Mr.
00:58:27.500
But to to covertly subvert the president, walk out of his office and go, OK, guys, we're not going to do any of that.
00:58:39.000
I don't think you're going to get anywhere on a constitutional level of this.
00:58:42.000
But let me put some perspective into it, because I know you enjoy that.
00:58:50.080
I mean, they tried everything to blunt Lincoln's opinion about how to wage the war, the Civil War.
00:59:01.180
John Adams, his crew, the people working for him, they almost hung him in the Alien and Sedition Acts and all of that.
00:59:11.940
Every president's got dissenters and people who try to sabotage from within every single president.
00:59:18.040
Ronald Reagan in the 25th Amendment thing, he they actually discussed it.
00:59:23.180
If you read killing Reagan, we laid it right out for you.
00:59:29.160
And his staff, they didn't know whether he was going to be able to carry on.
00:59:37.560
The New York Times obviously is out to get Trump removed from office.
00:59:45.380
You know, when this is all masked, it'll probably be Tom Arnold who wrote the op-ed.
00:59:52.060
You know, you know, any doubt that that name will come out.
01:00:00.380
But, you know, once it comes out and if it's Anderson Cooper, it'll be a big scandal.
01:00:22.260
And so that was one of the reasons why we talked to him.
01:00:26.520
You apparently you you said that he was I don't know.
01:00:30.360
At one point, apparently you invited him on the show and he wouldn't come on.
01:00:32.680
I'm on so does he work for Salt Lake Tribune and a few other papers.
01:00:43.000
That's that's exactly how his website describes him.
01:00:53.300
But that's one of the reasons why we called him right away.
01:00:55.500
After the show, we we got this tweet yesterday that he said, I've put all the phrases and
01:01:02.960
everything into Google and I'm matching matching phrases that have been used by people.
01:01:08.540
I've been taking the phrases and then putting names next to him.
01:01:12.500
He said relentlessly, two names keep popping up and only two names.
01:01:16.720
Ian Bremmer, who is a guy who's a writer and wrote for is written a few op eds for The New
01:01:44.540
So the the the other guy is just a writer and he's on, you know, he's on TV here and
01:01:52.200
The accusation or the the inclination, the I don't know what you want to say it was it
01:01:57.180
But his theory basically said that Bremmer co-wrote it with Huntsman and and Bremmer and Huntsman
01:02:02.620
have co-written an op ed for The New York Times previously.
01:02:06.500
And Huntsman is the guy who did the no labels thing.
01:02:09.880
And, you know, it does read Obama administration as well.
01:02:15.900
But, you know, there's no evidence of that other than this one guy.
01:02:33.660
Today, writing in a New York Post, Phil Mushnick.
01:02:36.320
I love that last name, Mushnick, points out that Nike has been credibly accused of paying
01:02:44.520
overseas workers nothing to make its very expensive Air Jordan sneakers.
01:02:49.840
In fact, for years, Nike's been criticized for exploiting foreign labor.
01:03:03.320
I think they're dreaming over there in China making the Nikes for no money.
01:03:38.420
Anyway, I went to a party one time, and I don't go to parties much, but I was paid a lot
01:03:46.160
And he was sitting there, and he didn't introduce him, but somebody introduced me to him.
01:03:53.320
Well, the guy didn't say one word at the party for like three hours to anybody.
01:04:08.260
His stock is going down today, and there's two reasons I want to bring this up.
01:04:11.680
His stock is going down today because he was on the Joe Rogan show, and he smoked pot on
01:04:24.960
It was a blunt, and it was half tobacco, half pot, I guess.
01:04:32.620
You and I, we're smoking our blunts all the time.
01:04:37.640
So anyway, you smoke at this, and you're thinking to yourself, what are you doing?
01:04:44.420
I mean, you are a CEO of a company, and people are saying that you're a little unhinged.
01:04:55.240
What he's doing is there's going to be a new advertising campaign for the Tesla, and
01:04:59.860
that is when you charge up your car, you know, your electric charge, you get a free pot.
01:05:08.680
That's like very much in the drug culture there.
01:05:15.200
$150,000 for the car, so he has a little bag of pot.
01:05:17.960
The other thing that I really want to bring this up is I've been watching Joe Rogan for
01:05:24.160
a while, and, you know, Joe Rogan was the guy who was, you know, will you eat this spider
01:05:32.140
And he started a podcast, you know, I don't know how long ago, and it has grown into an
01:05:40.560
No one in the mainstream media sees that they have been dethroned.
01:05:50.940
I mean, we're going crazy, and thank you for mentioning it.
01:06:07.740
We started a new concierge service on BillOReilly.com.
01:06:19.420
The concierge service means you directly, if you sign up for the service, and I'm giving
01:06:29.440
You can email me directly with any questions you have, and I'll answer them.
01:06:37.220
You know what a lot of these concierge members are doing?
01:06:40.920
They're asking me questions about their kids in school.
01:07:00.740
We have something very, very similar, where you can just email me at me at glenbeck.com,
01:07:22.340
There's one that people write in, and they say, we have a city council member named Hortense,
01:07:34.480
My advice is, don't ever come out of the house.
01:07:40.100
If this is what you're paying to ask me, just don't go out of the house.
01:07:51.760
When you join billoreilly.com, is that what you get?
01:07:58.300
When you join, you can upgrade a concierge membership, and you and Stu are getting it.
01:08:03.960
Yeah, because you guys need a lot of advice, and I'm there for you.
01:08:23.260
Ask Bill O'Reilly with his concierge email if you should continue to do drugs on the air,
01:08:36.100
I want to talk to you a little bit about office chairs.
01:08:39.340
The chair that you're sitting in, everybody knows what kind of car you have, right?
01:08:47.160
What kind of, you know, what kind of seat do you have in your car?
01:08:54.720
Does it have anything special in it to make you feel more comfortable?
01:09:00.900
Everybody knows all of this stuff about their car, and we pay so much attention to it, but
01:09:04.780
we're sitting in our chair at our office for eight hours a day, and we get these crappy
01:09:12.500
And no offense to Staples, but, you know, I'm not really looking to sit in none of your
01:09:20.480
Unfortunately, so many of us do that because there's somebody in the office who just orders
01:09:26.820
I have no idea who ordered these chairs, but they suck, and, well, they've stopped them
01:09:38.740
That means Stu will be getting one of these chairs?
01:09:45.460
I'm telling you, I mean, it's not a back chair.
01:09:47.560
It just has the best lumbar support of any chair I've ever been in.
01:09:54.420
The guy who runs this company was just in, and he said, he was so amazing.
01:10:00.900
And I said, oh, I mean, you want to take pictures?
01:10:03.620
I mean, it's not very sexy, but, and he's like, oh, ick.
01:10:07.800
But he adjusted, it has 900 different ways to adjust this chair.
01:10:17.460
If you are looking for an office chair, you're looking to redo your office and have a bunch
01:10:23.380
of chairs for everybody, this is the best chair ever.
01:10:45.860
Comes 30-day, no questions asked, guarantee of complete satisfaction.
01:10:51.680
Use the promo code BECK, and you'll get not only the usual $100 off sale, but you'll also
01:11:13.020
Today is the first day that tickets go on sale to the general public.
01:11:17.500
Are they available now, or do they start at a certain time?
01:11:20.380
If you go to glenbeck.com slash tour, it's our Addicted to Outrage tour.
01:11:25.380
I am announcing, I think, an additional city Monday or Tuesday, I think.
01:11:36.600
But I think I'm announcing another additional city next week.
01:11:40.520
But there are plenty of cities all over the country, and we would love to see you.
01:11:48.400
There's going to be somebody joining me, and we'll tell you about that coming up in the
01:11:57.000
You can find a city near you and come and see us.
01:12:03.660
You haven't done this in a long time, so it'll be a lot of fun.
01:12:09.200
Some of the packages have the signed books involved in them, meet and greets, and all
01:12:15.240
I like the fact that one of the meet and greets includes alcohol, which, being an alcoholic
01:12:21.160
and the scene that the show is, you know, named, you know, Addicted to.
01:12:28.700
A lot of times they do this, like, when you have, like, a big drug problem, they'll give
01:12:32.860
you other things that are kind of bad, too, but they're a lesser addiction.
01:12:36.960
So, this is one of the ways we're treating your addiction to outrage.
01:12:41.180
Yeah, you're, you know, if you have, if you're an alcoholic, it's much better than being
01:12:51.000
I don't know, in the morning or during the day, if it's better.
01:12:59.740
Before your life completely spirals out of control, you know.
01:13:04.180
I wasted all of those good blackouts on nothing.
01:13:07.420
I didn't, there's nothing I wanted to forget at that time.
01:13:12.260
Oh, I could shrink myself into oblivion during one of the, one of the Senate hearings, and
01:13:22.300
Kids, don't waste your alcoholic blackouts on nothing.
01:13:33.220
And the winner of the Tony Award for Best Political Theater Ensemble Cast for their production
01:13:41.480
of Confirmation Sabotage Stooges, Cory Booker and the Senate Democrats.
01:13:53.380
Republicans were good, but you just can't beat the combination, the knockout punch of
01:13:58.940
Dick Durbin, Dianne Feinstein, Patrick Leahy, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker.
01:14:04.620
I mean, they know how to put on a show, don't they?
01:14:07.380
And I think the best actor, you know, Tony, it was clearly a Cory Booker because, I mean,
01:14:18.200
This, this is, this is Oscar worthy performance.
01:14:22.080
This is about the closest I'll probably ever have in my life to an I am Spartacus moment.
01:14:30.000
With the Shakespearean flair of only a dramatic actor, Booker informed the Senate Judiciary
01:14:36.400
Committee that he was willing to lay it all out on the line and ensure that confidential
01:14:42.420
racial profiling emails were released from Brett Kavanaugh's days working in the George
01:14:50.740
It was, it was almost as exciting and as real, as visceral as that moment that we've all,
01:14:58.480
we've all had where somebody finally stands up and says, Mr. Chairman, it was Kavanaugh
01:15:13.200
But then Senator John Cornyn read aloud some Senate rules reminding Booker that releasing
01:15:18.620
confidential documents is not allowed and that by doing so, it'd be, you know, expelled
01:15:25.700
That's when Booker bravely stared the villain Cornyn in the eyes and said, bring it.
01:15:34.340
And he said like, bring it, bring it, bring it five or six times.
01:15:44.340
Either that or he's doing different takes for his television commercials.
01:15:53.100
I've got to have the perfect take for my campaign commercials for president.
01:15:58.360
Now the, the only, and this is barely even worth mentioning.
01:16:02.480
The only criticism, you know, of his performance yesterday is that, um, you know, it was completely
01:16:11.380
Um, but that's what you expect from actors, right?
01:16:15.900
It turns out the damaging emails, uh, that he was so desperate to risk my career to release.
01:16:26.320
And by the way, um, in those emails, you know, it's racial profiling in the billiard room.
01:16:34.740
Uh, it actually showed that, uh, Kavanaugh was, was saying, Hey, Hey, Hey, slow down,
01:16:40.200
This is right after nine 11, slow down, slow down, slow down.
01:16:44.600
There are people coming here that are, that want to kill us, but we cannot do anything
01:16:56.540
Kavanaugh in the billiard room without the candlestick or the racial profiling or anything else.
01:17:12.940
Uh, he wasn't willing to fall on his sword for principles.
01:17:20.600
I'm not a doctor, but I do play one on TV and then take your glasses off.
01:17:26.400
And when it turned out that the damaging emails weren't really even damaging Kavanaugh, uh,
01:17:34.360
that's when CNN decided to say, ah, well, I was going to have him on, you know, to talk
01:17:41.360
about it because I'm really upset about it because I think he did some really bad things.
01:17:51.620
All right, I was going to talk to you about Senators, uh, Kamala Harris and Cory Booker
01:17:57.020
and how they seem to be showing off today, maybe as a posture for 2020, but you know
01:18:01.840
They wouldn't come on the show to defend themselves anywhere, or at least make the case to you.
01:18:09.100
Of course, Donald Trump is on my program every night defending himself.
01:18:13.520
If he wouldn't come on, I would not say a naughty word about him because it would be
01:18:21.620
Oh, I love the new ever-changing standards at CNN.
01:18:28.640
Well, the sad news is everything that I just told you, you know, the whole, the whole Tony
01:18:37.000
Um, he didn't win the Tony, neither did the Senate, Senate Democrats.
01:18:40.600
I was just making that up and playing a role exactly like Cory Booker was yesterday.
01:19:05.040
Can we just talk about some like human stuff here for a second?
01:19:10.380
Have you gone to, uh, have you seen, uh, crazy rich Asians?
01:19:18.000
It is the, the most aptly titled movie I've ever seen.
01:19:24.340
It's not, they're not because you think, are they calling them crazy?
01:19:29.880
There's a lot of craziness in the movie, but yeah, they're crazy rich Asians.
01:19:33.760
Somebody asked, uh, Tonya the other day, have you seen that movie?
01:19:48.720
It was an, it was, you know who I really strangely like and she probably hates my guts.
01:19:53.720
That's you can, this is a very open book, but go ahead.
01:20:03.080
She was in, uh, Oceans 8 and she's in this one.
01:20:07.980
Uh, she was the blonde Asian, you know, the friend.
01:20:16.760
And it was, uh, I, cause I remember, you remember the eighties, um, and I know probably
01:20:22.280
for you, maybe not, uh, lots of drugs going through the system.
01:20:29.720
But there was a time where it was okay to celebrate wealth as something that was not
01:20:37.420
the end goal of your life, but that something was generally positive and something that maybe
01:20:44.360
And there was all those movies like Michael J. Fox would make like the secret of my success.
01:20:48.380
And it was all basically about him trying to get rich.
01:20:51.100
And at the end, he kind of learns there's, there's more to it than that, but it was
01:20:55.140
still a, it was a glory, it glorified that a little bit.
01:20:58.900
And then there was an era where, um, you know, rappers and, and, uh, and sort of rap
01:21:05.060
culture embraced, and this is one, by the way, Donald Trump was incredibly popular with,
01:21:12.120
Uh, and he would, that was, that culture really, you know, made that a big deal and that was
01:21:18.420
And this is, it was interesting in this way in that it was, this movie made it sort of
01:21:43.720
Yes, yes, um, but it, but it, it was very clear, though.
01:21:50.540
I said crazy rich people, crazy rich Asians, that's okay.
01:22:01.280
But if it's on the other side of the planet where people have been oppressed for a long
01:22:05.760
time, they can be the biggest capitalists and the biggest, you know, money pigs ever.
01:22:17.660
I mean, most of the good characters in the movie are, of course, embarrassed.
01:22:20.980
Yeah, they're embarrassed about the wealth and, but still, like.
01:22:25.900
They're embarrassed by the decadence and the meaningless, the meaninglessness of the wealth.
01:22:34.340
I thought it was, in some ways, the Great Gatsby just set in, I mean, a happier Great
01:22:42.760
I hate to say Great Gatsby, because if you've ever watched it or read it, you're like, oh,
01:22:47.620
But it has that same party atmosphere, that same over-the-top, oh, my gosh, what is it like
01:22:56.140
And then the grotesqueness of it, but it's a happy story.
01:23:03.260
Can I give you another one that I think is positive?
01:23:05.880
Maybe on the other side of the, other side of this equation?
01:23:12.000
We talked about him a little bit earlier this week.
01:23:13.920
He had a picture taken of him working as a bagger at Trader Joe's.
01:23:28.520
Right, and so that was kind of the attitude of particularly one Fox News article, but
01:23:34.540
And right away, you know, I think a lot of really good people said, wait a minute, what
01:23:38.640
So, so the guy took a job and is actually working for a living.
01:23:42.700
We should, we should, we should be proud of that.
01:23:47.400
This is the, the first person when he realized an article was going to be written about him.
01:23:53.200
He wrote to, he texted his 19 year old son to apologize, which is really rough.
01:23:58.440
He said, he was the first person I thought of and I texted, I'm really sorry if this embarrasses
01:24:02.900
He texted me back something, a beautiful response that made me cry and I knew it was going to
01:24:08.260
Now, because of, you know, partially because of the attention, I guess, he is now mulling
01:24:13.740
over some acting jobs that he might be able to take, which might be cool.
01:24:19.140
I think people really like look at him and say, you know, this is a good, you know, you
01:24:23.180
want to, you kind of wish everybody who has this moment and they kind of come into our
01:24:27.640
living room and the Cosby show was in our living room, luckily with Bill, not so literally,
01:24:34.860
But, you know, these people, they become in some ways, you're in a roundabout way, your
01:24:41.220
Where you kind of care about them and you feel like, okay, someone, you know, that person
01:24:50.820
You just believe in the back of your mind that all these people are kind of living at
01:24:53.900
least a halfway decent, you know, life when it comes to wealth.
01:24:58.280
And how many times do we how many times do we read about these people and we see them
01:25:03.220
and they're big and they look like me and you're like, whoa, what happened to that guy?
01:25:12.940
They're strung out on drugs, you know, and they're just a nightmare.
01:25:17.260
Here's a guy who gave it up, said, you know what?
01:25:31.380
And the reaction, I think, for this is totally across aisles.
01:25:37.020
The overarching reaction to him was really positive.
01:25:40.160
He writes, I imagine the worst case scenario to brace myself and somehow managed to be worse
01:25:46.580
The pictures of me, the words that were used to describe me were so demeaning.
01:25:49.620
It was humiliating acutely for a very short time.
01:25:52.980
And then there was this amazing rescue from the world.
01:25:56.200
I mean, imagine you're in the middle of going through this and now he's seen in such a positive
01:26:04.440
And who hasn't been in a situation like this where it may not have happened to you publicly
01:26:14.200
like that, but something has happened and you know because of you, your kids are going
01:26:20.960
to be embarrassed or whatever and it's going to come back on your kids and you just, your
01:26:26.940
heart is breaking, you know, and it doesn't even have to be that.
01:26:30.920
It can be, you know, I remember the worst Christmas of my, of my life because I made it that was
01:26:39.240
the Christmas I couldn't afford anything for the kids.
01:26:44.020
And, uh, I felt like such a bad dad, the, the entire fall and Christmas, I just felt
01:26:53.960
You can't afford anything for your kids for Christmas.
01:26:59.500
My kids don't remember that Christmas, you know, it's not like it wasn't like, oh my gosh,
01:27:08.340
And so we carry this stuff around that we have to do this or have to be this.
01:27:11.940
In this case, he didn't want to be, he knew that the press would take and make him look
01:27:21.620
And his kid to come back and say, dad, I want you to have this job.
01:27:28.460
It's just, I mean, that is, that is a Cosby show ending.
01:27:34.540
Now, the Bill Cosby ending is not a Cosby show ending at all.
01:27:52.580
Let me tell you a little bit about Mercury Real Estate.
01:27:55.920
You want to sell it for the most amount of money and in the quickest time possible, we
01:28:08.400
I don't want a real estate agent that's in California when I live in Texas.
01:28:16.500
You go to realestateagentsitrust.com and it finds the ones that are in our network, you
01:28:22.700
But I don't want just some agent that's paying a lot, you know, for advertising.
01:28:27.900
Well, yeah, but you're just probably picking the ones that have the most pictures on the
01:28:31.660
benches because that's how a lot of people pick real estate agents.
01:28:41.900
Man, I wanted that real estate agent because they looked so great, but that homeless person
01:28:51.520
We have them handpicked for their knowledge, their skill, their track record, their integrity.
01:28:59.020
Go there now if you want to sell or buy your house.
01:29:09.220
By the way, today is the first day that you can buy for on sale for the general public,
01:29:15.020
the tickets to the Addicted to Outrage tour coming to a theater near you, and I will be
01:29:20.480
there and love to meet you and love to have you involved in this.
01:29:24.900
It's going to be a night of learning, of possible little dramatics, a little comedy, and lots
01:29:35.380
You can get your tickets today coming to a city near you.
01:29:41.620
It's one of those things that I've memorized long ago.
01:30:06.200
And you can find those at Ticketmaster at glenbeck.com slash tour.
01:30:19.660
It's not getting any coverage, and I think it's fascinating.
01:30:26.480
Because last time they were like, well, Bernie really would have won if not for the super
01:30:30.900
And do you remember this whole controversy over Hillary?
01:30:35.780
By the way, you know why the super delegates, why that was enacted by the Democrats?
01:30:45.520
That all of a sudden, this outsider came out of nowhere.
01:30:53.500
So, the Bernie Sanders said, basically, hey, Bernie Sanders is the Reagan of the left,
01:30:58.380
Like, he's the principled guy that's going to come in, and you fought him off.
01:31:04.400
Hillary Clinton beat Bernie Sanders by a lot of votes.
01:31:08.360
And, you know, some people will say, well, Debbie Wasserman Schultz wanted Hillary to
01:31:13.340
The bottom line is, voters voted the way they wanted to vote.
01:31:17.500
It wasn't, it wasn't, it was closer than it should have been for Hillary, but it was
01:31:24.280
Bernie Sanders is clearly the guy that the Democrats should run.
01:31:33.380
So, the progressive, the hardcore progressives made a push to get the rules changed and get
01:31:44.400
The funny part about this is, with the changes, it's actually going to wind up hurting the far
01:31:53.200
Because the way they set it up was, they got rid of superdelegates on the first ballot.
01:31:56.960
And all you have to do is get over a majority of the, of, of the, um, delegates yourself.
01:32:03.780
So, that seems like, okay, well, man, that's easy.
01:32:08.540
But, of course, the establishment's a little too smart for that one.
01:32:12.200
So, what they did is they got rid of these, um, superdelegates.
01:32:16.860
So, think about how this race is going to play out.
01:32:19.040
You're going to start this race with, what, 15 candidates?
01:32:22.140
And so, for the first 10 primaries, probably no one, just like Donald Trump, right, back
01:32:31.780
They're all going to get, like, 26 and win primaries with 26% of the vote.
01:32:38.660
They're going to, you're going to have to beat all of the other candidates.
01:32:41.440
So, when they, when it comes to the end of this election cycle, you're going to have
01:32:45.580
to not only beat whoever the main candidate is, but also beat all of the other candidates
01:32:51.680
If you don't, on the second ballot, the superdelegates come in.
01:32:57.060
So, unless you, basically, unless you completely dominate, like Bernie Sanders comes in and
01:33:03.220
Well, that's what's going to happen if they run him.
01:33:05.460
That's exactly going to happen if they run him.
01:33:12.640
But if you dominate, you would have got the superdelegates anyway last time.
01:33:16.320
You know, if Bernie Sanders wins 70% of the vote, he's going to win and get the superdelegates
01:33:21.340
So, what they've set up here is a way for superdelegates to come in and rescue the second
01:33:33.880
Today, I think it's amazing that the mainstream media has just been passed, maybe even lapped,
01:33:47.720
Joe Rogan was on, or Joe Rogan had Elon Musk on yesterday.
01:33:53.420
You're not a nobody show if Elon Musk is showing up, you know?
01:33:57.400
The guy has over a million viewers of the podcast.
01:34:05.520
And that is, you know, twice, three times the number of CNN watchers.
01:34:11.640
And so, the mainstream media doesn't even, they don't even know.
01:34:17.140
It used to be, look how far ahead Joe Rogan is.
01:34:20.180
Now it's, look how clueless the mainstream media is.
01:34:33.080
And my apologies to Joe Rogan for comparing him to Larry King.
01:34:37.300
But only meaning that that's the, you know, at one point to be interviewed with Howard
01:34:43.760
Stern, that was the place you were going to get the interview that, you know, was different
01:34:51.680
And Joe can back it up with all of the numbers.
01:34:55.160
And that's why Tesla stock is taking a nosedive today.
01:34:59.780
Because Elon Musk gets on and smokes a blunt with him.
01:35:02.760
If I could say one thing to Elon Musk, it would be, dude, get a nap in.
01:35:08.020
I mean, seriously, he's got to get a grip on this.
01:35:12.040
He's tanking his company and his reputation and I think his future endeavors.
01:35:18.220
What do you think there's, what do you think the odds are that he's okay with that?
01:35:21.940
Because he's, he is a billionaire, wants to live the billionaire lifestyle.
01:35:25.660
He's not, he said in this interview, I'm not the CEO guy.
01:35:31.040
I'm a, I'm a, I'm a guy who takes ideas and I try them, you know, and he's kind of turned
01:35:40.240
into a company and I don't think that's who he is or what he wants really.
01:35:45.340
And so, you know, I wonder if there's a chance that he is, he wants out.
01:35:52.860
Like, you know, selling your company, selling it to someone you trust, right.
01:35:56.400
Or getting somebody to run it, getting something to run it, something else.
01:36:07.640
And you know, it's not, it's not that he, cause I, what I've always liked about Musk is
01:36:12.880
he lives the billionaire life the way I would live my billionaire life if I had one, which
01:36:16.840
was do whatever the hell I want, come up with a crazy idea and just do it.
01:36:20.760
You're sitting in your backyard and you're like, what if we tunnel under the freeway?
01:36:27.040
And then it starts happening and you're like, why is, you know, so I like that about him
01:36:30.780
and that's, you know, he's certainly a centric guy, eccentric guy.
01:36:34.660
But it's like, this is a, you know, he, this whole thing with Buzzfeed where he emailed a
01:36:39.980
reporter, some accusations about this guy in Thailand.
01:36:45.180
He can't let that go, which, you know, I, I mean, he thinks strange, he seems to really
01:36:49.040
think that it's true that, and I don't know, he has some information from somebody that
01:36:53.740
that guy really did, whether it's right or wrong, whether it's right or wrong.
01:36:57.440
Somebody said, Elon, that guy is a child molester.
01:37:03.500
And the, and, and, and the guy from Buzzfeed, I think this is really unfair.
01:37:07.920
I mean, I would never, if that's the way Buzzfeed is going to deal with you as a journalist,
01:37:14.720
I don't know how Buzz, I mean, this is not a good sign for future sources for Buzzfeed,
01:37:19.920
Because, I mean, if you didn't see this, Musk emailed them, they emailed Musk and asked
01:37:25.200
He responded and said, off record, and then gave some details.
01:37:29.560
And he said, and he called him a child rapist in that, didn't he?
01:37:34.580
Somebody needs to do their homework on this guy because he's a child rapist.
01:37:39.180
So he, it shows he actually is not just spouting this.
01:37:42.700
He's saying, can someone do their journalistic job and look into this?
01:37:52.040
The traditional understanding between reporter and source is the reporter would say, or the
01:37:57.600
source would say, can I go off the record on this?
01:38:00.620
And so that's the technicality that they're using here to print the email with, even though
01:38:07.680
Now, in reality, in everyday life, and we've dealt with a million PR firms and we've done
01:38:13.100
It's very standard practice via email to do this, to say off the record and then put it
01:38:19.080
Because think of how cumbersome the alternative is via email.
01:38:22.120
I email Glenn and I say, hey, Glenn, can I go off the record with my next email?
01:38:26.400
Then Glenn responds, yes, you can go off the record with this next email.
01:38:33.180
Glenn, can I go off the record again on this next email?
01:38:36.100
And you get to such a ridiculous, cumbersome process that it's pretty standard practice
01:38:42.340
that a reporter would not violate it if you asked to be off record.
01:38:45.900
They cannot take the information and they can leave the information out of the article,
01:38:50.420
but they're not going to rip you and just print your email after you ask that.
01:38:55.200
It's a courtesy that reporters should be giving to sources if they want any of them in the
01:38:59.140
If I could print the things that I have from journalists, from journalists who will write
01:39:05.760
to me over the last four years, who have written to me with all caps at the beginning,
01:39:22.700
And if you had an important story that you, you know, BuzzFeed was one of the, you know,
01:39:27.260
reporters, you were, you know, someone from BuzzFeed was one of the ones you'd be considering
01:39:32.760
If the risk is they can find some technicality and just print whatever you're giving them.
01:39:37.120
They could just, you know, they can just expose you because they might say, well, you
01:39:42.620
Well, look, Musk is stupid for sending in the email like that.
01:39:45.840
I mean, he should not be talking to reporters about this at all.
01:39:47.920
If you want to hire someone for a couple hundred thousand dollars a year, give them all your
01:39:52.840
But I mean, there's no reason for him to be directly emailing reporters with pedophilia
01:39:59.900
That's why I think he's had a little, a little bit of a breakdown that between that and the
01:40:05.060
tweets about taking his company public, which tanks stock to the tweets about how I'm not
01:40:13.440
The shareholders have to be a little edgy right now.
01:40:19.380
Do you have you heard the conspiracy theory about what's going on where, you know, he wanted
01:40:25.960
And so he's acting erratically publicly, knowing this is going to hurt the stock price.
01:40:33.340
If it's true, it's obviously he would go to jail for it.
01:40:36.400
By the way, we should also mention one of his head of his accountant account, the accounting
01:40:45.400
He's just, I found it to be overwhelming and too much for me to handle.
01:40:48.980
So that is also probably part of the reason the stock price has gone down today.
01:40:54.020
But still, there's a little, you know, we've been through a few weeks of this now where
01:40:58.100
Musk every other day is in the news for something.
01:41:00.000
It feels like the beginning of that, like Charlie Sheen period.
01:41:08.340
I love, I love his, you know, hey, let's big, dig a big hole under Los Angeles.
01:41:16.860
How about a big bank tube that goes around the country and go really fast?
01:41:25.880
And, you know, Tesla, how many times was Tesla put into an institution for exhaustion?
01:41:43.020
But, you know, he was put into an institution and it wasn't for, he was crazy.
01:41:53.660
And, you know, a breakdown has such a bad ring to it, but you can only run so fast for
01:42:01.280
so long before your body just says, I can't do it.
01:42:05.180
And he's had all those problems at the Tesla factory where they're like two years or something
01:42:10.740
behind schedule on the production of the $35,000 model, which still has not been produced.
01:42:17.240
And they've got a waiting line of 400,000 people who've each put down a thousand dollars
01:42:23.800
And so they couldn't get up to 5,000 vehicles a week.
01:42:28.640
And so he's lived at the factory for quite a while now and doesn't sleep and doesn't
01:42:37.720
And it's too bad because it's, you know, like you said, guy's a genius.
01:42:48.040
I saw, I think I saw, look up, uh, model three versus Corvette V12.
01:43:04.460
And this is the, like what happened to the Corvette?
01:43:15.080
So this is the, this is the, the top of the line Corvette, uh, the V12, they call it something
01:43:24.240
They are both, it's a camera at the driver's window of the Tesla to watch how close the
01:43:36.660
It, you, you don't even see the, the, the, the front of the Corvette.
01:43:42.960
Before it's out of frame, it's out of frame the whole time.
01:43:46.280
You see the black and white checker of the finish line.
01:43:52.300
And as it's turning, that camera was angled to the side.
01:43:56.360
And so as it's turning, it, you see the Corvette then cross the finish line.
01:44:11.860
You know, I mean, but it's a different, it's a different deal to run a company that can sell
01:44:17.800
$200,000 cars to really rich environmentalists.
01:44:21.680
That's a different model than selling 35,000 cars.
01:44:29.080
I mean, look at, you know, Lamborghini stays in business because they make, you know, $300,000
01:44:35.180
And that's what Tesla kind of, and not to mention a bunch of cash from the government, by the
01:44:39.240
way, a bunch of taxpayer dollars thrown in there as well to make sure that they can
01:44:56.440
Quite a few of those Teslas that are driving around.
01:45:01.660
And can we address something for the TV audience here at the Blaze?
01:45:04.540
You can, of course, watch the radio show every day on the Blaze TV.
01:45:14.520
This is not Pat's birthday, as people might be noticing.
01:45:20.420
Oh, Marissa usually sits there, which is directly in front of me.
01:45:27.900
So this is this balloon that says happy birthday has been on the chair of Marissa the entire
01:45:33.320
show, and Glenn has been looking at Marissa the entire show.
01:45:38.080
And about 15 minutes ago, he stops and says, is it your birthday today?
01:45:48.320
Man, you've got to get up early to put one over on you.
01:45:56.600
And I'm sort of even going further, because it was really Glenn's daughter, Mary, who
01:46:06.820
Who just walked in and said, oh, Marissa, is it your birthday?
01:46:08.760
And that's when Glenn said, Marissa, is it your birthday?
01:46:19.200
You want me on crime scenes, because nothing gets past me.
01:46:22.840
May I just say, more on trivia, today, hour number two of Tech Great Leagues.
01:46:36.660
Doublingly, the game is Pat's favorite team's debut.
01:46:42.400
My favorite team debuted last night as well, with a win.
01:46:51.160
TheBlaze.com TV, slash TV, by the way, is a place you can see Pat Gray on more on trivia
01:46:57.460
And also, we've got the news and why it matters coming up tonight, and lots of great stuff.
01:47:06.780
You might be sleeping on your factory floor and smoking blunts on television for some unknown
01:47:17.200
Now, the problem with hiring somebody is you can be overwhelmed with tons of resumes that
01:47:22.780
are just wrong, and you don't have time to go through them all, because, again, you're
01:47:31.980
They don't wait for the candidates to find you.
01:47:36.960
It's powerful matching technology that scans thousands of resumes, identifies people with
01:47:41.920
the right skills and education and experience for the job, and then actively invites them
01:47:50.120
They add also, on top of that, kind of a headhunter service.
01:47:53.960
And the way they're packaged is that you don't have to sort through the wrong resumes anymore.
01:47:58.040
The right candidate is waiting for you, and ZipRecruiter is going to highlight that resume
01:48:03.440
so it comes right to the top when you see it, so you're looking at the most relevant stuff.
01:48:11.140
This is why it's rated the number one job site for employers in the U.S., ZipRecruiter.com.
01:48:28.040
I want to encourage you to sign up for our podcast if you haven't already at iTunes.
01:48:36.720
You're going to be getting an extra podcast this weekend, and I am releasing this one.
01:48:45.680
I kind of stumbled into something that I was not prepared to talk about.
01:48:52.480
I told you over the summer that there would come a time I had something to share with you
01:48:57.920
that was really important, but it just felt right at the time, and so it's going to be
01:49:03.180
released this weekend, and then on Monday we'll talk about it in depth because it's something
01:49:12.980
that you need to know about, and it's important.
01:49:18.980
I feel compelled to talk about it, and it is the only thing I can remember, oh gosh, in
01:49:29.400
at least a decade, maybe two, that I have been nervous to talk about on the air.
01:49:41.620
It's, I don't know, a third of the way into this podcast.
01:49:44.740
It just kind of happens, and so that'll be sent out this weekend.
01:49:50.860
Get it, and then we'll meet back here Monday to discuss something very, very personal, and
01:50:01.060
You can find it at iTunes or whatever, but sign up, and it will be delivered to your email
