Summary

The U.S. Treasury Department caught a group called the Islamic Relief Agency red-handed. They had branches all over the world, including the Middle East and Africa, Western Europe, and even here in the United States. They were responsible for channeling over $1.2 million to Iraqi insurgents fighting US soldiers in Iraq, and over $100,000 to known terrorists. How did this happen?

00:00:00.000 The Blaze Radio Network, on demand, Glenn Beck.
00:00:08.740 Was the Obama administration the toughest administration on terrorism?
00:00:15.980 That's the line the left and the media has wanted us to swallow.
00:00:21.800 You know, forget about supporting the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, the founders of modern
00:00:26.420 day jihadism, and also let's forget about giving the world's leading state sponsor of
00:00:30.740 terror, Iran, $400 million in cash on a pallet at the Tehran airport.
00:00:38.000 Let's forget about those little hiccups, because after all, he killed bin Laden.
00:00:42.240 I think he did it with his own hands.
00:00:44.680 Here's the president, President Obama, back in 2011 on the state of al-Qaeda.
00:00:50.420 Listen.
00:00:51.180 By the time we found bin Laden, al-Qaeda's agenda had come to be seen by the vast majority of
00:00:56.040 the region as a dead end.
00:00:58.720 And the people of the Middle East and North Africa had taken their future into their own
00:01:05.080 hands.
00:01:05.880 The people of Africa.
00:01:07.600 So let me just make sure I have this right.
00:01:10.400 In other words, their leader was dead and the movement was dying.
00:01:14.320 So let's accept that is true.
00:01:16.980 Mr. President, if that was true, if you had them on the ropes and this was all but a one
00:01:22.120 battle, why was your administration giving money to al-Qaeda's global finance network?
00:01:30.580 This is a story that is a little underreported on the left and the mainstream media.
00:01:35.780 The story goes back 14 years.
00:01:38.840 The U.S. Treasury Department had caught a group called the Islamic Relief Agency red-handed.
00:01:44.540 They were raising funds in support of jihadists.
00:01:47.760 They had branches all over the world, including the Middle East and Africa, Western Europe,
00:01:52.980 and even here in the United States.
00:01:54.980 They were responsible for channeling over $1.2 million to Iraqi insurgents fighting U.S.
00:02:01.840 soldiers in Iraq.
00:02:03.180 They were also found guilty, guilty of raising more than $5 million for Osama bin Laden.
00:02:09.380 The Islamic Relief Agency was designated as a terror financing organization.
00:02:18.600 Now, you'd think that story would stop after that, right?
00:02:22.020 But it doesn't.
00:02:24.540 Ten years after they were designated as terror financiers, the Obama administration approved
00:02:32.400 a $200,000 grant for them to do work in Africa.
00:02:37.220 An NGO had contracted them to do work in Sudan.
00:02:42.400 When the NGO mentioned that this contracted group might be on the terror list, the Obama
00:02:48.960 administration then paused the deal.
00:02:51.620 Now, here's where it gets weird.
00:02:53.720 Let's give them the benefit of the doubt for a second.
00:02:56.480 It's possible somebody within the Obama administration screwed up, you know, the application process
00:03:02.320 and just didn't check to see if this group was on the terror list.
00:03:05.360 That's incredibly dangerous and incompetent, but at least it's understandable.
00:03:11.940 But here's what I can't understand.
00:03:15.140 At this point, everyone involved knows about the Islamic Relief Agency and what they're involved
00:03:22.220 in.
00:03:22.840 They know that they have given money to Osama bin Laden.
00:03:26.520 They know they're on the terrorist list.
00:03:28.440 But knowing all of that, they still agreed to pay them $125,000.
00:03:36.460 That's over $100,000 of your tax money that was given to known terrorists.
00:03:44.540 How did this happen?
00:03:47.680 Well, that was our question over the weekend.
00:03:50.560 There's one U.S.
00:03:53.060 government agency at the center of all of this, and boy, do they have a strange knack for being
00:04:00.160 directly in the middle of some of the darkest and most secret things our government is involved
00:04:06.360 in.
00:04:07.700 It's disgraceful.
00:04:09.680 It's disgusting.
00:04:12.140 It's dangerous.
00:04:13.500 And it's still going on.
00:04:18.280 See who I'm talking about tonight on TV on TheBlaze.com.
00:04:27.840 It's Monday, July 30th.
00:04:29.720 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:04:33.440 Good morning, Stu.
00:04:34.920 How are you?
00:04:36.060 Fine, Glenn.
00:04:36.780 Thank you for asking.
00:04:37.680 That's what I do.
00:04:38.580 I'm always amazed by when you say something like $150,000 went to a known terrorist group.
00:04:44.720 I always like to think about that as, for most people, that's like more tax dollars than
00:04:50.700 they'll ever contribute.
00:04:53.260 Like, so you will go through your entire life paying taxes, and maybe, you know, it's a couple
00:04:58.900 hundred thousand dollars for your entire life.
00:05:01.540 All your work, your entire life, all the money you ever gave to the government just went to
00:05:06.900 a terrorist group.
00:05:07.660 Congratulations, you win!
00:05:11.680 We are so screwed up.
00:05:15.380 There's a story out of Texas today where they are now talking about renaming the city of
00:05:25.720 Austin.
00:05:27.720 They have already renamed seven streets that they deemed worthy of immediate action.
00:05:34.180 And they now want to rename the city of Austin.
00:05:40.260 Now, Stephen F.
00:05:41.960 Austin is known here in Texas as the father of Texas.
00:05:46.700 He is the namesake of Austin.
00:05:50.140 He's the guy who carved out the early outlines of Texas.
00:05:55.800 He is also the guy who opposed an attempt by Mexico to ban slavery in a province called
00:06:08.980 Tejas.
00:06:09.700 So, he said, if the slaves were free, they would turn into vagabonds, a nuisance, and a
00:06:15.960 menace.
00:06:16.440 So, we've got to change the name of Austin now.
00:06:19.980 Now, this is what the city of Austin is doing.
00:06:26.500 They are just rewriting history.
00:06:30.900 They're just erasing.
00:06:32.580 How do you do that?
00:06:34.800 How do you do that?
00:06:35.400 Who is oppressed by the name Austin?
00:06:41.620 It's a progressive utopia.
00:06:45.360 It is becoming the San Francisco of Texas.
00:06:50.020 Thank you, California.
00:06:51.000 And now, they're claiming that in this progressive utopia, they're so oppressed.
00:07:01.340 How?
00:07:02.060 You took over the city.
00:07:04.200 How are you oppressed?
00:07:08.040 And so, now they have to change our history.
00:07:11.120 Over the weekend, I was recording the audio book for the new book that's coming out September
00:07:21.240 18th.
00:07:22.000 It's called Addicted to Outrage.
00:07:26.340 And I read this story, and I had just read this section of the book.
00:07:32.280 And I just, I want to read it to you.
00:07:34.900 As we search for truth, let's first remember who we are.
00:07:44.160 America's history with slavery is an abomination.
00:07:48.260 Frankly, the people back then were monstrous.
00:07:51.900 I mean, how could they not be?
00:07:54.060 It may not have, you know, been in their home or even their neighborhood, but they knew slavery
00:08:00.640 was going on.
00:08:01.540 The food they ate, the clothes they wore, the fabric, cotton, was picked and made by
00:08:08.760 slaves.
00:08:10.160 They may not have been able to hear the lash and the crack of the whip, but all they had
00:08:14.640 to do was think about it.
00:08:16.740 But they refused.
00:08:19.280 We should now, in this century, judge and condemn them.
00:08:24.060 And it's important to do so, to set ourselves apart and signal our virtue, because just as
00:08:30.940 this generation has passed judgment on past generations, we too shall be judged and condemned
00:08:38.400 by our children and our children's children.
00:08:41.280 They will ask, how could they have possibly cared about some entertainer who tweeted stupid
00:08:49.660 stuff or spend days going back and forth online asking, do you see a blue dress or is it a
00:08:56.420 gold dress?
00:08:57.680 They knew that the food that they ate and the clothes that they wore were picked and made by
00:09:04.880 slaves.
00:09:05.780 Why are we not today leading the charge to free the slaves that are currently in chains?
00:09:24.360 There are more in bondage today than the entire 400-year period of Western slave trade combined.
00:09:31.200 What people now say about the founders is just as true about us today.
00:09:37.280 We may not be able to hear the lash and the crack of the whip, but all we have to do is Google it.
00:09:44.600 Hashtag slavery is out of control.
00:09:48.300 Hashtag hashtags don't count as actually doing something.
00:09:55.780 I can see my ratings now, minute to minute.
00:09:59.680 This is something new.
00:10:01.200 And I know that every time I speak about freeing slaves in today's world, my ratings go down.
00:10:08.700 I have shared the stories of the way radicals now fund their diabolical plans and organ harvesting.
00:10:17.080 We have taken two cells off the streets when we kicked in the doors of their surgery centers
00:10:23.800 in the Middle East.
00:10:24.700 These are Christian Yazidi slaves and even Muslim orphans who have more value as parts than people.
00:10:32.620 But people in radio and television and online beg me not to talk about it.
00:10:42.600 Now, let's be really careful of asking the honest question here, because once you hear the answer, you're going to be faced with the choice.
00:10:53.980 The question is, why?
00:11:00.320 Why don't people want to hear it?
00:11:02.020 Answer, because all of those who have been oppressed by a statue are selfish, self-centered crybabies and cowards.
00:11:13.740 And quite frankly, the rest of us are too comfortable in the belief that by expressing our outrage toward those crybabies, we're doing our part.
00:11:23.900 The choice is, dogpile with outrage over my answer and do nothing, or do your own homework and find the truth for yourself.
00:11:39.400 And instead of focusing on the crybabies, maybe we work together and lead and stop slavery today.
00:11:53.900 The full book comes out September 18th.
00:12:02.780 It is really good, if I may say so myself, as I'm reading it out loud over the last 35 hours.
00:12:11.400 It is very clarifying, very, very clarifying, and backs up with history and science.
00:12:22.360 What's happening to us today and where we need to go.
00:12:27.160 It's called Addicted to Outrage, and it's available now on Amazon.
00:12:32.760 And also you can pre-order on Audible.
00:12:41.860 Once again, sensitive personal data has been exposed in more data breaches for nearly two months.
00:12:48.500 An authorized party reportedly used stolen usernames and passwords to log into online accounts of certain major department store websites.
00:12:58.800 Customer data such as full names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, birthdays, payment, credit cards, and expiration dates have all been compromised now.
00:13:08.460 With your personal information, with your personal information from a data breach, criminals can open accounts, they can file tax returns, they can buy property, and so much more.
00:13:20.780 It is, in a connected world, really easy to destroy your life really quickly.
00:13:27.920 That's why the new LifeLock Identity Theft Protection is adding the power of Norton Security to help protect you against the threats to your identity and your devices that you can't easily see or fix on your own.
00:13:40.300 Now, nobody can stop all cyber threats or prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses, but the new LifeLock with Norton Security is able to uncover the threats that you might otherwise miss.
00:13:52.920 So, go to LifeLock.com, LifeLock.com, or call 1-800-LIFELOCK and use the promo code back.

00:14:15.900 So, what the media is not discussing, and it is the fuel that feeds Donald Trump, and the reason why I believe that this next 2020, the election of 2020, will not be a referendum on Donald Trump.
00:14:35.640 It'll be a referendum on who runs against Donald Trump.
00:14:39.940 The thing that nobody is paying attention to is the two states.
00:14:47.540 There's two Americas now, and it is the America of, I don't even want to say traditional values because that isn't even it.
00:14:58.320 The America that understands, generally speaking, the Bill of Rights and says, look, we can all get along and let's, you know, let's just work this out.
00:15:08.980 And maybe I want bigger government or smaller government than you, but generally, we're okay.
00:15:15.440 The other America is now quickly becoming the democratic version of America, where it is hostile to different thought, where it is, it claims that everything about America is racist,
00:15:31.480 that the hierarchy must be taken down, that men have no power other than to rape women.
00:15:39.640 This is the choice, the choice of 170 different genders or two, and I can live next to somebody who's, you know, wearing a skirt, and I just don't have to like it, and I don't have to say anything, and I don't have to, you know, applaud every time.
00:16:00.740 I would say, oh my gosh, Burt, that is the most lovely blouse I have ever seen.
00:16:07.760 We don't have to say that, but I don't have to hate him either.
00:16:11.740 You do have to say Caitlyn Jenner is beautiful, though, right?
00:16:14.440 Well, yeah.
00:16:15.020 You do have to say that.
00:16:15.920 Because you have to say, yeah, no matter, no matter, no matter how, how, I'm sorry, what are you about to say?
00:16:23.660 How good.
00:16:24.680 Okay.
00:16:25.280 She looks in a swimsuit.
00:16:26.960 Okay.
00:16:27.340 We have to make sure we say it.
00:16:29.640 That's sick.
00:16:30.140 Why are you objectifying her?
00:16:31.860 Mm-hmm.
00:16:32.220 Why are you objectifying Caitlyn?
00:16:35.720 Unbelievable.
00:16:36.700 I don't have an answer.
00:16:38.120 I don't have a good answer.
00:16:39.700 Okay.
00:16:40.100 So, this is the problem.
00:16:43.340 The problem is, is that America, the Democrats are fully in on postmodernism, which means anything that, anything that is remotely involved with the building of the Western culture is bad.
00:17:02.620 Because it is, it's why, it's why mathematics, have you heard that mathematics are racist?
00:17:07.800 You've heard that, right?
00:17:09.460 Math is racist?
00:17:10.480 You haven't, no, seriously, seriously.
00:17:12.120 We've talked about it a couple of times.
00:17:13.380 There are serious people now that are saying that mathematics are racist.
00:17:17.540 I've heard this, you know, when it applies to, like, the SATs, for example, where, like, certain cultural things might not be understood.
00:17:25.060 But how is math racist?
00:17:26.440 Oh, boy.
00:17:27.100 Oh, boy.
00:17:27.580 Okay.
00:17:27.780 So, I'm surprised you didn't hear this or remember that we've talked about this.
00:17:31.280 Probably have.
00:17:31.740 There's serious people now claiming that math is racist.
00:17:35.360 And I've never understood it until I began to look into postmodernism.
00:17:42.000 Now I get it.
00:17:42.600 I absolutely get it.
00:17:44.080 Because to me, I would think it's self-evident that serious people are not saying math is racist.
00:17:49.920 Because if you're saying math is racist, you're not a serious person.
00:17:53.220 So, it's impossible for a serious person to say math is racist.
00:17:57.640 Their numbers.
00:17:58.680 Well, serious people are saying math is racist.
00:18:02.340 And here's why.
00:18:03.800 Math is racist because it is math, science, reason that built the Western way of life.
00:18:15.400 That built the Western world.
00:18:17.600 So, anything that helped build this world needs to be taken apart.
00:18:24.020 Now, it may be resurrected later.
00:18:26.880 But anything that helped build the Western way of life must be stopped and taken apart.
00:18:35.040 Because it has to be collapsed.
00:18:37.240 And then it can be resurrected under a new name or a new regime or whatever.
00:18:42.420 But everything that helps keep this together or helped build it has to be taken apart.
00:18:50.960 That's how you get to a place where mathematics is racist.
00:18:54.520 And we have to not roll our eyes at that.
00:18:58.300 Because there are serious people.
00:19:02.160 Now, like Stu says, I don't think you're serious.
00:19:05.180 Right.
00:19:05.700 But they do.
00:19:07.040 They are.
00:19:07.800 And people are taking themselves.
00:19:08.720 And they are in serious positions of education.
00:19:13.120 And so, when you have the halls of education saying, no, no, well, no, math is racist.
00:19:20.220 It will become a fact to a lot of kids.
00:19:24.800 And these kids are being indoctrinated with this garbage right now.
00:19:28.820 I don't know what it's going to take before we start saying, I'm not sending my kids to any of these schools.
00:19:34.220 I'm not doing it.
00:19:35.980 I am not doing it.
00:19:37.580 My kids would be better off at a trade school.
00:19:41.160 My kids would be better off without a degree and just starting to, I mean, unless they're, I don't want to be a doctor.
00:19:48.220 But I'm not sending my children through these indoctrination camps.
00:19:53.800 Because that is exactly what's happening in these universities.
00:19:57.920 Back in a minute.
00:19:58.640 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:20:03.800 Let me give you a, let me give you a, this is dangerous.
00:20:10.160 Let me give you an example of postmodernism in action.
00:20:13.740 But you don't think of it this way.
00:20:16.340 You think of it as, uh, a, um, as supporting your president or supporting your party, but it is actually postmodernism.
00:20:28.360 The new poll out, $12 billion to aid farmers that have been hurt by the tariffs.
00:20:35.580 Now, what, what is that story?
00:20:38.460 The story of the aid is a bailout for a big group of people because of a tax increase.
00:20:46.560 Now, Americans who are conservative should be against the big tax increase and the tariff, same thing, which caused the hurt to the farmers.
00:21:01.100 We should recognize that and then say, wait, we don't want to bail them out.
00:21:06.280 That's, that's doubling down on a bad idea.
00:21:09.860 We don't, we don't want bailouts.
00:21:11.560 So the government screws it up, the government bails it out.
00:21:17.180 Who does that sound like?
00:21:19.060 That, that's, that's Democrats.
00:21:21.140 That's a Democrats, right?
00:21:22.100 That's a progressive idea, right?
00:21:23.720 The taxes.
00:21:24.560 And then because of the damage that the taxes do, you have to bail somebody out.
00:21:28.720 Okay.
00:21:29.160 That's, that is the Democratic Party.
00:21:32.680 $12 billion aid to farmer hurt by tariffs.
00:21:35.620 Are you for or against it?
00:21:37.240 In favor, 78% of Republicans against 22% of Republicans.
00:21:45.320 In favor, 34% of Democrats oppose 66% of Democrats.
00:21:56.120 Wait.
00:21:58.020 Can anybody be honest?
00:22:00.680 Can anyone be honest?
00:22:02.180 Because, and I think my, my initial reaction to that was people are just supporting their
00:22:07.260 team, right?
00:22:08.000 Like the Republicans, you know, they know that Trump's doing this.
00:22:10.920 So even though they might not necessarily like the policy idea, it's less important than
00:22:16.360 supporting their guy.
00:22:17.440 And the same thing from the Democrats, even though they love, they obviously love the idea
00:22:21.620 of a bailout to support a tax increase.
00:22:23.820 And it's like Democrat 101, but what they, but it's Trump doing it.
00:22:28.540 So here they say they don't like it because they don't like Trump.
00:22:31.000 So this is in a way, post-modernism in action because the Democrats should love this.
00:22:37.500 Republicans should hate it, but Democrats should love it.
00:22:40.220 They should love it.
00:22:41.180 They don't.
00:22:42.600 They don't.
00:22:43.740 Why?
00:22:44.780 Because it is Donald Trump.
00:22:47.420 Anything to destroy Donald Trump.
00:22:50.780 Why do the Republicans support this?
00:22:54.740 Because it is Donald Trump and he's, and he's destroying the mainstream media.
00:23:01.960 He's destroying the old guard.
00:23:04.780 So it is destruction that is making us not reason destruction that is making us go here.
00:23:11.220 Now we can, we can say that it is about my loyalty, but it, it really is about destruction.
00:23:18.580 You're loyal to him because you see him kicking down the doors of power.
00:23:23.400 Correct.
00:23:24.040 Um, and they are opposed to him because they see him, uh, yeah, I, to be honest, they see
00:23:35.740 him as a jingoistic, uh, raw, raw America.
00:23:40.400 Let's make America great again.
00:23:42.740 That goes against everything post-modernism is.
00:23:44.940 So they have to abandon reason.
00:23:54.240 The hardest thing about post-modernism and the thing that we have to understand, otherwise
00:24:03.160 we're never going to be able to even fight it.
00:24:06.140 It's, it's, it's the same as, uh, as progressivism until you could say, no, there is a
00:24:14.920 difference between a liberal and a progressive until we understood that difference.
00:24:21.200 It wasn't just word games.
00:24:22.820 It was vitally important to understand and expose it.
00:24:28.060 The same thing with post-modernism post-modernism.
00:24:33.920 What is the modern age?
00:24:36.700 The modern age is the age that was developed under science, math, reason,
00:24:44.060 study, honest, questioning, fix reason firmly in her seat.
00:24:50.320 That's what created the modern world.
00:24:52.700 There was no magic anymore.
00:24:54.900 You had to prove it scientifically.
00:24:59.620 So we get to Karl Marx and Karl Marx.
00:25:05.440 What is his theory?
00:25:06.740 So what's his theory that all of the workers are going to eventually what?
00:25:11.980 Uh, unite, workers of the world will unite and they will come together to overthrow the,
00:25:18.420 the evil fat cats.
00:25:20.320 Yes.
00:25:20.620 They're going to overthrow capitalism and anybody who has anything and they're all going to
00:25:26.140 share.
00:25:26.760 Okay.
00:25:27.640 Well, a, we know human nature well enough to know that in the end, nobody shares, nobody
00:25:32.760 shares.
00:25:33.080 Uh, if you have absolute power, you are not going to share that power and you're not going
00:25:37.300 to share your stuff because you'll end up saying, you know, me and the rest of these
00:25:42.300 guys, we're the ones doing all the work.
00:25:44.280 We deserve it.
00:25:45.900 And they isolate themselves and it ends up in Venezuela.
00:25:49.320 Okay.
00:25:49.720 So at the turn of the century and starting in the 1850s, people believed that the workers
00:25:56.680 would rise up and they did.
00:25:59.900 That's what unions were for.
00:26:01.340 And unions were at the beginning, communist organs.
00:26:05.060 That's all they were.
00:26:06.120 They were trying to unite all of the workers to rise up against the evil robber barons, whether
00:26:12.460 they were robber barons or not.
00:26:13.980 So the unions start progressivism starts because progressivism says, now this is before all
00:26:21.820 the hundreds of millions of dead.
00:26:24.640 Progressivism says communism is the way to go.
00:26:28.160 This one big state and we'll unite the world.
00:26:33.480 And that's really the way to go.
00:26:35.480 But we don't like the revolution part.
00:26:37.380 That's very un-American.
00:26:38.800 Remember, you can assign some good intent here from the progressives because they didn't
00:26:45.280 know at the time what how it would turn out.
00:26:48.360 So they say a big state and and some sort of authoritarian plan is is much better.
00:26:55.220 And we can do it now because science is ruling.
00:26:59.340 Reason logic.
00:27:02.300 So.
00:27:03.640 They don't they see the they see the revolution in Russia.
00:27:07.340 They don't like the revolution in Russia, but they think that Stalin is the guy.
00:27:13.400 Then Mussolini steps up to the plate and Mussolini doesn't have a revolution.
00:27:19.140 Mussolini, he takes over the state.
00:27:21.920 Yes, he has some beatings in the streets with his black shirts and and everything else.
00:27:26.420 But it is not like the Russian revolution.
00:27:29.380 And he comes in and he takes power.
00:27:31.760 Now, FDR sends his best people over to study Mussolini.
00:27:38.320 FDR writes a review of the Mussolini's book on fascism and says it's great.
00:27:45.220 This is this is the future.
00:27:47.740 So all of this is happening.
00:27:49.640 And then fascism falls apart.
00:27:52.080 And what fascism was, was communism says workers of the world.
00:27:58.940 But Mussolini figured out because it was right after World War One.
00:28:03.120 Wait a minute.
00:28:04.640 All the soldiers here.
00:28:06.240 They didn't fight for all of the countries of the world.
00:28:09.320 They fought for Italy.
00:28:10.580 So we're going to take this communist idea and just make it a nationalist idea, because that is a better way to get everybody into a one totalitarian state.
00:28:22.760 So they were both socialists and both for complete control state run.
00:28:29.600 Well, about 1940, 45, it's all falling apart.
00:28:34.580 By 1950, all of the communists see what's happening.
00:28:38.920 The people in Europe have just fought against Russia and fought against fascism.
00:28:48.800 And in America, we're starting to be very, very prosperous.
00:28:52.280 We're we're we're exploding.
00:28:54.360 And people are starting to have TVs and phones and houses and cars and two cars.
00:29:00.640 And they realize these SOBs are not going to rise up.
00:29:07.820 They're not going to rise up.
00:29:11.220 They want the creature comforts.
00:29:13.500 And somebody says they don't know that they've been hypnotized.
00:29:19.120 They oh, my gosh, this system is so evil.
00:29:23.220 They're just being they're just being bought.
00:29:25.920 And they don't know that they're even in slavery.
00:29:30.640 And they have no idea that they are oppressed.
00:29:38.020 Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
00:29:39.820 The first bells of postmodernism.
00:29:43.020 How do we take the West apart?
00:29:46.000 How do we tell people in the West that they're all really oppressed?
00:29:50.620 What they have to do is they have to start splitting us into little teeny groups like fascism learned its nationalism.
00:30:01.600 But if you split it down even into smaller groups, you can divide even a country.
00:30:07.840 And so we have to split everybody into their own oppressed groups, even those groups that don't think they're oppressed.
00:30:17.920 They're in an oppressed group.
00:30:21.280 And we can split them all apart.
00:30:23.780 But then to do this, we must discredit the entire system.
00:30:29.460 We have to tear it all down because there's no way you can build anything off of the back of this system.
00:30:38.000 It must be entirely new.
00:30:41.360 So we have to split everybody apart.
00:30:43.640 We have to show how they're oppressed.
00:30:46.040 Then we need to discredit every system.
00:30:49.240 We need to have riots in the streets, chaos in the streets, with no one having any idea of what is true, what is not true.
00:31:01.220 And then when it burns itself down to the ground, we will come out on the other side and we will build our new utopia.
00:31:12.020 That's where we are, guys.
00:31:13.940 That's where we are.
00:31:15.160 We're beyond the progressives.
00:31:17.100 Progressives weren't the ones that wanted all of the riots in the streets.
00:31:24.120 Progressives were the ones who said, I don't want revolution.
00:31:28.320 I want to take it step by step.
00:31:30.460 Still, their idea is one state-run government.
00:31:35.820 But they didn't want revolution.
00:31:40.020 Postmodernists came in and said, that is the only way to tear it entirely apart.
00:31:47.100 And to be as vicious and ruthless as we can possibly be.
00:31:53.240 Because Americans and the people in the West, they don't even know how oppressed they really are.
00:32:03.500 It's important for us to know this so we can spot it and not play into it.
00:32:11.460 I told you years ago, chaos is the operative word.
00:32:16.880 It is going to be the word that historians will write about this time period.
00:32:24.140 And the people did not see the chaos that was being inflicted upon them, i.e. China, i.e. Russia.
00:32:36.420 They did not see the chaos that was being inflicted on them.
00:32:40.760 Nor did they see the chaos that they were furthering and spreading themselves.
00:32:48.200 We cannot be agents of chaos.
00:32:53.460 We must, if we are going to preserve, not just the country anymore.
00:32:59.000 This is bigger than our country now.
00:33:01.400 If we are going to preserve the Western way of life,
00:33:05.320 we must, again, to use reason and logic and science and, dare I say, faith.
00:33:17.140 Faith.
00:33:18.620 At least in one another.
00:33:20.640 All right, I want to tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

00:35:02.180 Glenn Beck.
00:35:03.840 Welcome to the program.
00:35:06.160 Let's go to Mike in Tennessee.
00:35:07.720 Hello, Mike.
00:35:09.120 Beck, you get better every day where most talk shows get stale.
00:35:12.500 You just love your analysis.
00:35:14.320 Thank you.
00:35:15.160 Let me develop a quick thought here.
00:35:16.800 I know you're up against a hard break, but back in the 80s and 90s, there was a group that
00:35:21.120 used to, if the IRS took someone's home, collectively pool their money and buy it back.
00:35:28.000 And it pulled the teeth of the IRS.
00:35:30.480 They lost that power.
00:35:31.660 However, now, I don't believe in any subsidies.
00:35:35.280 Ninety-five percent of the federal government should go away.
00:35:37.140 I hate them.
00:35:39.020 This, to me, is not political.
00:35:40.520 This is business negotiation to tell China, if you think that you're going to mess with
00:35:45.960 our farmers because of fairness, that we want to have equal tariffs.
00:35:51.720 You know, let's have none of them.
00:35:52.660 But if you're going to do 20%, we're going to do 20%.
00:35:54.500 We're going to fund them.
00:35:55.800 And I'll tell you what.
00:35:56.780 Do it to our electronic industry.
00:35:58.420 We're $20 trillion in debt.
00:35:59.640 What's another trillion?
00:36:01.120 Do it again to our farmers.
00:36:02.440 We'll add $20 billion more.
00:36:04.740 Well, this is a negotiating strategy, in my opinion.
00:36:07.500 Okay, well, Mike, it might be, and it's my hope that it is, but you're leaving out one
00:36:13.040 important part, and that is, what's another billion to add to our debt?
00:36:18.080 What's our trillion to add to our debt?
00:36:20.040 Well, China is basically our bank.
00:36:24.380 So, I mean, if they are our bank, it's one thing to say, hey, we've got the money.
00:36:28.540 It doesn't matter.
00:36:29.440 It's called F.U. money.
00:36:31.140 That's what it's called.
00:36:32.380 And you're right.
00:36:33.160 That is the best way to negotiate.
00:36:36.060 Unfortunately, we have to go get a loan from the bank we're telling F.U. to.
00:36:42.640 And it doesn't always work out quite so well.
00:36:45.560 Thanks for your thoughts.
00:36:49.100 Glenn Beck.
00:36:50.580 Russia currently appears more interested in hacking the U.S. electrical grid than interfering
00:36:57.280 with our midterm elections.
00:36:59.180 Oh, well, that's a relief.
00:37:01.160 Last week, the Department of Homeland Security confirmed that Russian military intelligence
00:37:05.640 has been hacking into the control rooms of power plants all across the U.S., and they've
00:37:12.240 been doing it for the past year.
00:37:14.440 Should we, should we have, I mean, shouldn't this been on TV a little bit?
00:37:24.260 I mean, just a little bit.
00:37:26.260 So far, so far, they appear to have stopped short of trying to take remote control of the
00:37:31.760 plants, which they did in the Ukraine in 2015.
00:37:35.220 But U.S. intelligence officials interviewed by The New York Times say that Homeland Security
00:37:40.180 has, quote, understated the scope of the threat, end quote.
00:37:46.320 Yes, it's our power plants.
00:37:50.700 That was, I mean.
00:37:52.060 President Trump was briefed Friday on U.S. cybersecurity efforts to protect the midterm
00:37:59.940 election systems.
00:38:01.340 Some believe Russian hackers may just be, you know, biding their time waiting to attack
00:38:06.040 the election systems closer to Election Day.
00:38:08.840 Last week, Microsoft announced at a security conference that it had stopped an attack on
00:38:14.320 congressional offices in late 2017.
00:38:17.100 Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill says her office was one of the ones attacked unsuccessfully.
00:38:23.520 She is on the Senate Armed Service Committee, and one official says Russian hackers may be
00:38:28.160 trying to find a way into the classified military information that the Senate Committee has access
00:38:33.880 to.
00:38:35.380 So far, Russian hacks into the electrical grid involve installing malware in the utility operating
00:38:43.460 systems.
00:38:44.120 According to the Department of Homeland Security, the Russians gained access to the grids by first
00:38:50.000 hacking into the networks of utility contractors who have poor cybersecurity defenses.
00:38:57.620 Now, I don't know about you, but the overall lack of alarm of what's happening with Russia is, to me, a
00:39:05.840 little bit confusing.
00:39:07.040 I mean, Washington occasionally gives it lip service, but are you seeing any concerted and
00:39:15.740 coordinated effort to confront Russia on this one?
00:39:19.420 I mean, the attitude is like, wow, this is bad.
00:39:23.300 Somebody should do something, huh?
00:39:24.960 Yeah, you, you should be doing something.
00:39:27.020 I'm telling you now, if this would have happened in the 1980s instead of 2018, where we don't know the
00:39:34.340 difference between right and wrong, truth and fiction.
00:39:37.780 I, I, I'm just saying somebody might have said, well, oh, I hit that button.
00:39:44.340 There would probably be missiles in the air.
00:39:46.440 Now, I don't want war, but I also, you know, uh, don't want, uh, a world without electricity.
00:39:55.700 Wasn't, wasn't hacking the number one topic in conversation in Helsinki?
00:39:59.120 What happened there?
00:39:59.760 If Congress was half as concerned about Russian hacking as they were about collusion, America
00:40:08.800 just might be on the way of being more prepared to safeguard our next two elections, not to
00:40:16.060 mention keeping, you know, the lights and, hey, what do you say, the refrigeration on.
00:40:21.940 It's Monday, July 30th.
00:40:29.080 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:40:37.820 The Daily Mail, which is a, uh, paper out of London, is reporting now that TDS, do you
00:40:43.460 know what TDS is?
00:40:45.880 TDS.
00:40:46.840 Oh, I have TDS.
00:40:48.500 Uh, Trump derangement syndrome?
00:40:51.100 Yes.
00:40:51.180 I was going to say that.
00:40:52.120 It can't be what he's referring to.
00:40:53.300 It is.
00:40:53.720 TDS.
00:40:54.140 Okay.
00:40:54.480 Trump derangement syndrome.
00:40:56.320 They are now reporting that doctors are saying this is a real thing.
00:41:00.880 It's a real thing.
00:41:01.920 Oh, I think it's definitely a real thing.
00:41:04.080 Oh, yeah.
00:41:04.720 I mean, it definitely seems like it's a real thing.
00:41:06.680 Well, it's a real thing by choice.
00:41:08.920 I think it's a real thing by choice.
00:41:12.040 You weren't born with TDS.
00:41:14.420 No, I don't think you were born with it.
00:41:16.760 You have to decide I'm going to live my life this way.
00:41:22.140 You do.
00:41:23.220 You do.
00:41:24.280 Because there's no facts involved.
00:41:25.640 Listen to this.
00:41:26.640 Therapists across the United States say that ever since President Donald Trump took office,
00:41:30.960 patients have been experiencing more anxiety and it is affecting both Trump critics and
00:41:36.060 supporters.
00:41:36.520 Okay, well, that is not TDS.
00:41:39.620 That is just, yeah, we're we're headed towards a civil war.
00:41:45.840 We're not headed towards anything good here.
00:41:48.240 And we all know it one way or another.
00:41:50.660 This this cannot last the way we're headed.
00:41:54.500 It's just not going to last.
00:41:56.620 Several therapists spoke to Canada's CBC News saying that many of their patients have a fear
00:42:02.540 about the country's future.
00:42:04.620 Yeah.
00:42:05.820 Welcome to it.
00:42:07.380 Democrats.
00:42:08.260 Hey, yeah, we've been here for a while.
00:42:10.800 We were here.
00:42:11.600 We were here in the second term of George W. Bush.
00:42:15.500 So think how tired we are.
00:42:19.200 Fear about the country's future.
00:42:21.220 And if Trump will blow us all up.
00:42:24.840 Okay.
00:42:25.400 Now I did that one.
00:42:27.340 I mean, do you actually have that fear that Trump will blow us all up?
00:42:35.080 Yeah.
00:42:35.420 No, I don't have the fear that Trump is not the way of like, I'm going to destroy America.
00:42:40.220 But I mean, get us into a war and all of a sudden the missiles are flying.
00:42:45.900 I mean, yes, I have some worries over that.
00:42:49.580 I mean, I know people who love Trump might think that that's, you know, I would.
00:42:54.280 There's a fear of that, I think, with every president.
00:42:56.980 I mean, look, JFK almost did this, right?
00:43:00.440 We were close with JFK.
00:43:02.300 Every president, we have a giant military with one person, generally speaking, in control
00:43:07.480 of the biggest weapons in it.
00:43:09.500 And so at any moment, any president could make a mistake or do something wrong that leads
00:43:15.520 to something like that.
00:43:16.120 Let me give you, instead of a, instead of some sort of conspiracy theorist that, you
00:43:22.720 know, Donald Trump is just, he's just trigger happy.
00:43:25.680 Well, let me show you a way that it could logically happen.
00:43:29.740 Stu, what is China the most afraid of right now?
00:43:34.660 What are they actually preparing for by 2020?
00:43:38.900 Do you know?
00:43:39.500 I don't know.
00:43:40.140 Okay, well, you actually do, but you haven't, you haven't obsessed on it, like probably
00:43:44.280 I have, because I have a condition.
00:43:46.580 You do.
00:43:46.960 It's not TDS.
00:43:48.020 It's something else.
00:43:48.700 No, it's not.
00:43:48.720 No, it is.
00:43:49.200 Something much more serious.
00:43:50.460 Yes.
00:43:51.020 So what are they doing?
00:43:52.920 By 2020, they are going to have a social.
00:43:57.140 Oh, the social network thing.
00:43:58.620 Yeah.
00:43:58.860 Social media scores.
00:43:59.800 Yeah.
00:44:00.220 Social credit scores.
00:44:01.740 And what is that for?
00:44:03.240 I mean, to control their populace.
00:44:05.100 Control the populace.
00:44:06.320 It is exactly the, it's exactly the thing that everybody saw with, if you ever watched
00:44:11.240 Black Mirror and you saw that episode where you can't travel, you can't get a car, you
00:44:17.140 can't get a job.
00:44:17.960 If your social media score is low, you are trapped.
00:44:21.300 That's exactly what this is.
00:44:23.080 And at the same time, they are building these massive facilities and these massive facilities
00:44:29.060 are education centers.
00:44:31.520 Well, we should point out, too, because I think if you happen to miss this show that
00:44:36.560 we did a few weeks ago when we talked about this, it's not like somebody's rumored to
00:44:41.200 start this.
00:44:41.680 This is a policy that has already begun to be implemented in China.
00:44:45.320 They are actually at it.
00:44:46.540 So that means if you say something bad about the government, you would lower your social
00:44:50.540 credit score.
00:44:51.700 And if you do that enough, you would not be able to travel.
00:44:54.800 You would not be able to get benefits from the government.
00:44:57.260 You would not be able to get a job.
00:44:58.940 You can't have your children go to school.
00:45:00.740 Right.
00:45:01.060 All sorts of just, yeah, basically to keep everybody in line.
00:45:04.520 And it's a way to monitor.
00:45:05.360 And it is it is already being implemented and it will be fully implemented by 2020.
00:45:10.820 That's according to President Xi.
00:45:12.320 So, I mean, it's it's a done deal.
00:45:14.360 It's a done deal.
00:45:15.160 OK, so they're afraid of their populace.
00:45:19.400 Why are they afraid of their populace?
00:45:21.240 They're afraid of their populace because they cannot stop growth.
00:45:26.520 If they stop growth.
00:45:30.000 People will starve.
00:45:32.040 If their economy has a blip at all, people will starve and they know revolution is around
00:45:38.620 the corner.
00:45:39.020 So they now have to get control of their people to know exactly where they are.
00:45:44.220 Give them all kinds of really bad punishments to make sure they all stay in line.
00:45:49.400 They are afraid of revolution.
00:45:52.860 What causes that a revolution?
00:45:55.580 What causes that revolution is anything that hurts their economy.
00:46:00.880 What hurts their economy?
00:46:03.440 A trade war.
00:46:06.240 We are playing with and look, I hope this is a negotiation tactic.
00:46:12.580 Now, Donald Trump has always said he believes in trade wars and that you can win trade wars
00:46:17.680 and tariffs are great and tariffs are great.
00:46:20.120 And they're all scientific and mathematical evidence.
00:46:25.180 Economic evidence shows that is not true.
00:46:28.180 The trades are tariffs are bad.
00:46:31.680 Trade wars are bad.
00:46:33.500 However, if he's just sticking his toe into the water and is using this as a negotiation
00:46:39.500 and he knows how delicate the economy is over in China, you're going to be OK if he backs
00:46:47.820 out at the right time and we get what we need and we've compromised and everybody walks away
00:46:52.180 feeling OK.
00:46:52.800 And there's some evidence that he might do that right with the way he treated the Chinese
00:46:58.400 phone company that was having issues.
00:47:01.060 He went to he went to bat for them because they were it was a big deal to China and he advocated
00:47:07.720 strongly to lift security recommendations from his own government to help their economy.
00:47:14.600 Correct.
00:47:15.640 So.
00:47:17.200 What happens if we don't start this trade war?
00:47:20.320 Trade wars are always the last stop before real war.
00:47:26.700 OK, there's there's a whole series of events that happen.
00:47:29.620 And it starts with a crash and then you start messing with the the taxes and you start redistribution.
00:47:39.460 Then you start blaming it on people outside of the country.
00:47:44.020 Then you start protectionist moves.
00:47:46.480 Then you start trade wars.
00:47:48.060 And if none of those things work, it's the next step is war.
00:47:52.480 So could Donald Trump blow us all up in that way?
00:47:58.180 Yeah, that's yeah.
00:47:59.260 And that's not plausible.
00:48:00.620 Not necessarily.
00:48:01.700 It's a bad way to put it.
00:48:03.020 Right.
00:48:03.300 It's not Donald Trump blowing us up like you could also say that, you know, that this sort
00:48:06.940 of more commonly referred to circumstance where Trump, you know, with his sort of tough
00:48:13.680 talk sets it not because he's necessarily going to start a war, but because some dictator
00:48:19.640 decides, you know, like Kim Jong-un could have easily taken that the other way and said,
00:48:24.780 well, screw you.
00:48:25.380 If you're going to say you're going to threaten me like that, I'm going to blow up the South
00:48:27.760 Korea.
00:48:28.620 And it could have it could have it didn't.
00:48:30.900 But, you know, you push yourself closer to those edges and anything like that doesn't
00:48:35.280 mean that that's Trump's fault per se in that, you know, the person who fires the weapon
00:48:41.620 is the one responsible for it.
00:48:43.160 Right.
00:48:43.320 Just like in any.
00:48:44.200 But I'm trying to find a logical reason why you could why you could freak out right now.
00:48:52.220 OK, sure.
00:48:53.180 But those those logical reasons are are just as valid as it was when Barack Obama was cozying
00:49:02.320 up in the Middle East through Benghazi, through the takedown of Syria, through the the help
00:49:09.340 to ISIS and to the support of the Arab Spring.
00:49:15.060 You know, I could I could make a case and did every night that that's a very dangerous thing
00:49:19.620 that could upset the balance in the Western world and it could cause all kinds of chaos
00:49:25.680 in Europe and it would cascade over here and we're all screwed.
00:49:30.560 That was really valid.
00:49:31.940 It was not only plausible, it was possible and much of it happened.
00:49:38.900 But we're still here.
00:49:41.420 The problem here is Trump derangement syndrome.
00:49:45.560 People don't understand that it's the same thing that the right has been feeling.
00:49:54.020 We felt exactly the way you do now under Barack Obama.
00:49:59.160 The difference is you still have the mainstream media.
00:50:04.480 You're already violent and you still have the mainstream media batting for you.
00:50:09.820 We didn't.
00:50:11.400 We had no one standing for us.
00:50:13.540 We had Fox and talk radio.
00:50:15.980 That's it.
00:50:17.560 And the mainstream media kept pounding us and wanting us, wishing, wishing and waiting for
00:50:23.680 us to get violent.
00:50:24.640 We never did.
00:50:25.700 You still have the mainstream media and you've already run to violence.
00:50:32.040 And you're worried about all kinds of things that should be worried about by all of us.
00:50:39.280 I don't want another war.
00:50:41.800 And we're we're moving in the direction, but we've been moving in that direction for longer
00:50:47.880 than Donald Trump has been in office.
00:50:49.880 But you you because there is no reason because we're not using logic because we're not using
00:50:58.440 facts.
00:50:59.440 You don't even know why you feel this way.
00:51:02.720 You don't even you don't even understand that because you you can't your reason centers shut
00:51:11.460 down.
00:51:12.220 It's a it's a defense mechanism.
00:51:14.340 When you're frightened, when you are freaking out, reason shuts down fight or flight.
00:51:22.860 Well, we got to get everybody out of that because there are reasons to be concerned.
00:51:27.700 But until we get out of this, this fight or flight, we'll never be able to see the real
00:51:35.260 issues and be able to address them until you until people can stop saying I've got to defend
00:51:42.500 the president at all costs from a group of people who say I want to destroy him at all
00:51:48.440 costs.
00:51:49.200 We're not going to be able to solve what's really happening in Russia.
00:51:54.100 And the threat is real.
00:51:56.400 Sponsor this hour is Liberty Safe.
00:52:06.920 It was July 23rd.
00:52:09.840 Liberty Safe was invited by President Trump.
00:52:13.980 Along with Vice President Mike Pence and members of the administration to participate in the
00:52:18.760 Made in America product showcase at the White House.
00:52:22.420 and they brought this big, beautiful Liberty Safe into the White House.
00:52:27.660 And it's I mean, it's sitting there.
00:52:29.120 Don't know which room that's in.
00:52:31.000 But if only 50 manufacturers from 50 states were invited to attend and Liberty Safe was
00:52:37.120 selected because of its commitment to American made safes, Liberty Safe showcated showcased
00:52:43.320 its huge presidential 50 safe.
00:52:46.620 Vice President Pence said he was really impressed with it and love the beauty of it, etc., etc.
00:52:50.980 I've never seen them in white, but I mean, it is the White House.
00:52:54.420 Staff members suggested that all of the safes in the White House should be Liberty Safe.
00:53:00.040 They should be a Liberty Safe in your home as well.

00:53:57.000 Let's go to Bill in New York.
00:53:59.640 Hello, Bill.
00:54:00.200 Welcome to the program.
00:54:01.680 Hi.
00:54:02.100 I'd like to talk about the people coming back from North Korea, the soldiers.
00:54:07.160 Yes, sir.
00:54:07.820 And you don't hear much about it on the news, like very little, even when they do talk about it.
00:54:12.940 Yeah.
00:54:13.700 And I think this is like a huge thing, you know.
00:54:16.700 I mean, I'm a father of a veteran myself, you know.
00:54:20.060 And I couldn't imagine my son being gone that long or my brother or my sister or maybe my father.
00:54:27.920 And you just don't hear nothing about it at all.
00:54:30.960 Yeah, I would be interested in seeing those stories of the loved ones.
00:54:36.140 I mean, we don't know yet.
00:54:37.600 The remains have not been identified yet.
00:54:40.940 And so we don't know who's come home yet.
00:54:44.820 But I would be very interested in hearing the stories of those families who can now finally bury their father or their grandfather.
00:54:55.260 Yeah.
00:54:55.440 And what that means.
00:54:56.900 I think this is a I think this is a very big thing that perhaps perhaps because it was accomplished with Donald Trump that it it's not getting the press that it deserves.
00:55:08.460 But it's a big deal.
00:55:10.200 Well, I remember when it when it actually happened.
00:55:13.000 Remember when they sent the bodies home from Vietnam?
00:55:15.260 Yes.
00:55:16.260 I mean, it was huge.
00:55:17.720 It was huge.
00:55:18.640 It was on the news like forever.
00:55:21.360 Yeah.
00:55:22.560 Well, it was Vietnam was, you know, a little closer as well.
00:55:25.820 I mean, it wasn't North Korea.
00:55:27.280 So, I mean, it's your it's if you're lucky, it's your it's your father.
00:55:32.120 But it it for most people, it'll probably be their grandfather that is returned.
00:55:37.420 Still, it's a it's a very big deal, but it's a little more understandable because it's closer to Vietnam.
00:55:43.380 Bill, thank you so much.
00:55:44.780 Thank you so much.
00:55:45.440 And thank you for we'll keep your son in our prayers.
00:55:48.460 Thank you for his service.
00:55:49.460 There's a couple of things that we should address today.
00:55:53.020 Medicare for all.
00:55:54.760 Do you see what the cost is?
00:55:57.240 I mean, you know, everybody deserves it's a human right.
00:56:01.580 So I don't think there's any cost.
00:56:02.580 No, it's a human right.
00:56:04.600 It's not Medicare for all.
00:56:07.020 No, it's actually not.
00:56:08.420 But anyway, it's the that's the plan would cost thirty two point six trillion dollars over how much time, though.
00:56:17.720 That's that's a limited amount of time.
00:56:19.840 Yeah.
00:56:20.060 Ten years.
00:56:20.700 Right.
00:56:21.580 We say thirty two point six trillion dollars.
00:56:23.520 Well, that's not the cost.
00:56:24.360 It's much, much more than that.
00:56:25.600 It just it depends on when you cut the time off.
00:56:28.000 And usually we talk in ten year periods with these things.
00:56:30.520 You should notice it's going to be a hell of a lot more than I was just going to say.
00:56:34.200 I've never seen a I've never seen a government program come in at or under cost.
00:56:42.380 One thing we've been able to enjoy the past couple of years has been a great economy.
00:56:46.380 You know, go back to the financial collapse of 2008, 2009.
00:56:50.040 We've come a long way since then.
00:56:52.820 And what we've been able to see here is a lot of people who have been able to get on the plus side of their home, get some equity going.
00:57:00.780 And maybe you're thinking this is the time I'm going to take my money out.
00:57:04.160 Maybe this is the time you want to move or maybe you want to do something a little bit different.
00:57:09.320 Maybe you want to get into the housing market and buy something from renting.

00:57:41.880 Check it out.
00:57:44.640 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:57:47.140 You know, you can't always rely on the slippery slope argument.
00:57:52.780 You know, hey, we can't do that because.
00:57:54.520 Well, no, that's not always true.
00:57:58.000 But it is when you have dishonest people on the other side who are by name progressive.
00:58:08.820 By name, they are slippery slope.
00:58:12.740 We're going to do this one piece at a time because we will move from here, baby step to here, another baby step to here, another baby step.
00:58:22.800 So when you're dealing with people who are not telling you the truth because their end goal is progression.
00:58:29.880 The slippery slope is real.
00:58:33.360 And the way and the way to demonstrate that is in health care.
00:58:39.380 And remember, the progressive ideal, the thing they've been trying to do for 100 years that they will all deny is that we until now, we have wanted 100 percent.
00:58:50.980 Everyone covered under one universal American health program.
00:58:57.480 So there is no private insurance.
00:59:00.240 There are there are no private doctors.
00:59:02.060 It's just all government.
00:59:03.440 It's like the V.A. for everybody.
00:59:06.680 Oh, that's going to be good.
00:59:09.020 OK, that's what they've wanted.
00:59:11.420 They've wanted it from the beginning.
00:59:13.560 And you'll see it in honest reporting.
00:59:16.880 They'll say, you know, the dream of the Democratic Party for the last 100 years.
00:59:21.140 It was not Obamacare.
00:59:23.380 That was just a half measure.
00:59:25.240 And it was designed to collapse.
00:59:27.680 It was a Trojan horse.
00:59:29.300 What was the guy's name at the Tides Foundation, Stu?
00:59:31.900 You remember him?
00:59:32.580 I don't remember his name, but I've always loved that clip because he's so proud of it.
00:59:35.900 He says, look, you know, people are saying this is a Trojan horse for single payer.
00:59:39.360 It's not a Trojan horse.
00:59:40.380 It's right there.
00:59:41.240 I'm telling you it's he's he's saying, I'm telling you, it is a path to single payer.
00:59:46.780 Right.
00:59:47.240 That was the designer, one of the designers of Obamacare.
00:59:49.960 Right.
00:59:50.240 And and the design was to collapse.
00:59:52.620 It won't be able to last.
00:59:55.060 So it will collapse.
00:59:55.880 And that will cause people to say, take the next step forward.
00:59:59.800 Universal health care, single payer, Medicaid, Medicare for all.
01:00:05.040 And look, this goes back long before Obamacare.
01:00:09.060 It goes back to, you know, Lyndon Johnson.
01:00:11.360 Right.
01:00:11.680 Like the idea, you can't get everybody covered under a single payer.
01:00:14.960 But what if we do just the most needy?
01:00:17.100 And what about just old people?
01:00:18.820 And what about, you know, and you start taking out different sections of it and you're still picking away.
01:00:23.320 Now Obamacare was just people who couldn't who didn't couldn't weren't on Medicaid, but couldn't afford insurance.
01:00:29.400 Now we got those people and they just slowly have chipped away until basically we're at the point now where most people have some portion of their health covered by the government.
01:00:41.280 A good chunk of them, at least.
01:00:42.420 And it's always promised that it's going to be better than what we have.
01:00:46.520 Well, it never is.
01:00:47.920 It never is.
01:00:48.740 You go try to get prescriptions.
01:00:51.020 I mean, Canadians drive across the border all the time to buy prescription medicine.
01:00:55.060 Why?
01:00:56.240 Because they can't get it in Canada.
01:00:59.080 Nobody will cover it in Canada.
01:01:01.520 The government will decide what medication you can take.
01:01:05.580 And if you're in a family like I'm in family, my daughter who has cerebral palsy and epilepsy, my gosh, the medication alone is enough to bankrupt you.
01:01:15.740 And you think she's going to be able to get to the different kinds of medicines that she needs under Obamacare or I'm sorry, under universal health care with with Medicare?
01:01:28.340 No, it's already gotten worse because of Obamacare.
01:01:31.520 So they have they've run the numbers now, and these are the numbers, you know, and Bernie Sanders looks at them and says they're pretty close to my numbers.
01:01:43.100 Thirty two point six trillion dollars over 10 years.
01:01:46.640 Stu, how much do we raise in taxes?
01:01:48.940 We just had a record tax year for America.
01:01:53.960 We gathered more taxes than in any other in any other year in history.
01:01:59.560 How much was it?
01:02:01.060 Let's see.
01:02:01.940 U.S. government total revenue estimated to be three point four to two trillion.
01:02:06.140 OK, so this is three point two six trillion over 10 years.
01:02:12.280 So we've just raised the most amount of money that America has ever taxed her people.
01:02:20.420 This is never raised more money than this.
01:02:23.620 Thirty thirty four point.
01:02:26.660 Six thirty point four thirty four point two.
01:02:29.560 For for for the year for three point four to two is estimated for twenty nineteen.
01:02:34.440 OK, so that's what we're getting.
01:02:37.160 This program will be paid for by taxes.
01:02:41.700 Now, we're already a trillion dollars in debt every year now.
01:02:46.320 We can't afford a trillion dollars of what we're spending.
01:02:50.680 So we're just putting that on the tab.
01:02:52.120 This is going to add three point two six trillion at the minimum.
01:03:00.500 This is what it is going in per year per year.
01:03:04.460 So that means to pay for this program because they'll say, we'll just pay for it in taxes.
01:03:08.900 That's what they're saying.
01:03:09.840 This people are going to have to pay more in taxes.
01:03:12.000 Yes.
01:03:13.300 Double, double the taxes.
01:03:16.340 We're only raising three point four.
01:03:19.260 Now, if you need to raise another three point two, you have to double the taxes.
01:03:25.720 And what happens when you raise taxes?
01:03:28.220 Your unemployment numbers go up.
01:03:30.280 Your business goes down, which means your tax revenue goes down.
01:03:35.580 It doesn't work that way.
01:03:37.940 Now, you're not if you double taxes, you're not going to double revenue.
01:03:41.040 I mean, you may increase it, but you're not going to double it.
01:03:43.160 Remember, we did that thing.
01:03:44.500 Oh, man, this was way back in the CNN days.
01:03:47.200 Well, there is a number and I think it's I want to say it's seventeen point eight, but I could be wrong.
01:03:53.200 There is a percentage that no matter we've looked at tax revenue from the beginning of the IRS to today.
01:04:04.460 And we've had taxes that were, you know, twenty percent and we've had taxes that were ninety percent.
01:04:13.060 What was the average that no matter what the tax code said, what is the average that we collected?
01:04:22.740 What is it now?
01:04:23.740 You're speaking of Hauser's law.
01:04:25.700 Hauser's law is the proposition in the United States that federal tax revenues since World War Two have always been approximately equal to nineteen point five percent of GDP, regardless of wide fluctuations in the marginal tax rate.
01:04:37.560 Historically, since the end of World War Two, federal tax receipts as a percentage of GDP averaged seventeen point nine percent with a range of fourteen point four to twenty point nine.
01:04:47.080 So, yeah, you were off by one tenth of a point.
01:04:49.140 Yeah.
01:04:49.240 That law was a little bit different than the actual results.
01:04:52.140 But the point is, it stayed really consistent.
01:04:54.260 Yeah.
01:04:54.640 So the the real solution to see how much money we actually have and can spend is to just take our GDP.
01:05:03.900 And times it by what, nineteen percent and see what we have.
01:05:09.280 What do you have?
01:05:10.720 That's how much money you have.
01:05:12.260 And you'll always have that money.
01:05:14.160 It it is a slave to GDP.
01:05:17.440 I mean, the most efficient way to do income tax is just to have a flat tax of nineteen point five or whatever it is, twenty percent, twenty percent income tax.
01:05:30.940 Everybody pays it.
01:05:32.740 There's no exceptions until you get down to a very low number.
01:05:36.340 But it's twenty percent of what you have.
01:05:38.540 That's that's the most effective because there is the least amount of fraud.
01:05:47.580 There's no loopholes for anybody.
01:05:50.280 And that's what you're going to collect anyway.
01:05:52.700 No matter if you say, I'm going to charge ninety five percent for the rich.
01:05:56.000 No, you're really not.
01:05:56.980 What?
01:05:57.280 There were no rich.
01:05:58.320 There were no rich under FDR.
01:06:01.000 What happened?
01:06:02.280 All his money.
01:06:03.100 Did he pay all of his money?
01:06:04.860 Oh, no, he didn't.
01:06:05.720 He was still rich.
01:06:06.480 How?
01:06:08.540 Because there's always ways to hide and move money for the rich.
01:06:12.680 It's just not going to happen.
01:06:14.080 It's just not going to work.
01:06:16.060 And it just it kills me when you see people who don't want to use logic at all on taxes or on spending thirty two point six trillion dollars.
01:06:29.780 Completely ridiculous.
01:06:30.560 I mean, at this point, you know, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is just it's just socialist porn.
01:06:36.940 Right.
01:06:37.360 If you believe in that sort of philosophy, it's not it doesn't need to be true.
01:06:40.700 It doesn't need to be any real backup to it.
01:06:43.260 It's just it's exciting to think about the possibility that what if we took everyone's money and spent it all on things that we want?
01:06:49.360 I'm watching The Handmaid's Tale right now, which, you know, first of all, is really, really well done.
01:06:56.760 I mean, you know, it's a Hulu series.
01:06:58.220 Can you enjoy it?
01:06:59.560 You have to look past the idea that it is essentially feminist porn.
01:07:05.000 Right.
01:07:05.380 It is like it's fear porn for feminists.
01:07:08.180 Like, here's the craziest thing.
01:07:09.680 The reason why it's so popular besides it being really well done, but it's super dark.
01:07:14.240 The idea that this is a cultural phenomenon.
01:07:16.960 I mean, every other scene is a sexual assault and it's really super terrible.
01:07:22.720 Right.
01:07:23.240 Horrible things happening throughout.
01:07:24.640 If you don't know the concept of it, basically somewhat some somehow a civil war happened in the United States and a religious fundamentalist group basically took over.
01:07:36.240 I don't know if it's the whole United States or a big chunk of it.
01:07:38.540 And I think what I think what happened was there was some sort of an outbreak, wasn't there?
01:07:43.240 Yeah, there was a there was a decrease in fertility, fertility rate.
01:07:47.040 So they had to basically take all the women who are fertile and make them just baby machines.
01:07:52.620 Right.
01:07:52.900 So the the elites are constantly assaulting the baby machines who are subservient.
01:07:58.620 And the idea, of course, the reason why it's popular right now is I can see this happening.
01:08:03.360 Oh, my gosh.
01:08:03.940 Donald Trump wants to do this.
01:08:05.060 This is what he's trying to plan.
01:08:06.380 Like, that's what he's.
01:08:07.420 But that's why I know.
01:08:09.020 I know.
01:08:09.420 And this is there's a long history of this.
01:08:11.240 Right.
01:08:11.440 Like you could go to Atlas Shrugged is essentially libertarian fear porn.
01:08:16.080 Right.
01:08:17.240 Same thing with Overton Window in a way.
01:08:19.080 Right.
01:08:19.260 The book that you wrote.
01:08:20.140 You go to Waterworld is essentially environmentalist fear porn.
01:08:23.900 Right.
01:08:24.460 All of these, you know, Red Dawn.
01:08:27.260 Right.
01:08:27.520 It was it was there was an example of it then.
01:08:29.540 Elysium.
01:08:30.160 Right.
01:08:30.400 Is if you are afraid of capitalism that you believe that maybe I don't know, maybe all the rich people will build a giant space satellite and they'll all live up there and we'll all suffer.
01:08:40.140 I mean, that's essentially what it is.
01:08:42.080 I mean, leave out the fact that in Handmaid's Tale, it's really amazing because here you have a bunch of people saying, oh, my gosh, you know what, Donald Trump might do this when they ignore the fact that that society basically exists in several countries on Earth, which are almost never criticized by the left.
01:08:58.120 And by the way, one of them in particular is a communist country.
01:09:02.000 The same thing that essentially Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is rooting for the road to is essentially the Handmaid's Tale.
01:09:11.780 Right.
01:09:12.380 I mean, you're telling me in North Korea, Iran is another good example of this, where you have a society that runs somewhat similarly to what they're actually showing on the Handmaid's Tale.
01:09:25.540 And it's occurring right now.
01:09:27.800 See, this is what I tried to say about a half an hour ago, that you don't even know what you're really afraid of.
01:09:34.760 You are afraid of all these things like Handmaid's Tale.
01:09:37.140 No, it's not going to happen in America.
01:09:38.740 It's not going to happen.
01:09:39.580 No.
01:09:40.000 Now, could fascism happen in America?
01:09:42.700 Yes.
01:09:43.160 Could communism happen in America?
01:09:45.060 Yes.
01:09:46.060 Could could we have civil war in America?
01:09:48.960 Yes.
01:09:49.400 Could we have an Islamic war and a possible takeover from the Islamic world?
01:09:56.400 Unlikely.
01:09:57.100 But yes, we could.
01:09:59.120 So we have all these things to worry about, all these things to and nobody's actually talking about the real issues.
01:10:06.920 Instead, you'll you'll run to you'll run to Handmaid's Tale and say, see, this is the Trump America.
01:10:13.260 No, it's not the Trump America.
01:10:15.220 That's not the Trump America.
01:10:16.480 And it's it's it's and it's not the Obama America.
01:10:22.100 Let's deal with the facts.
01:10:24.280 Aren't the facts scary enough?
01:10:26.340 Why do we have to go to these shows and watch this dystopian future when this one's pretty frightening in and of itself?
01:10:34.800 Let's make sure that those things don't happen by dealing with the issues at hand.
01:10:42.620 How do we have a civil war?
01:10:45.040 Or how do we have a a a government that all of a sudden loses control and a bad government steps in?
01:10:51.820 Well, I'll tell you an easy path.
01:10:53.800 Lose your power.
01:10:55.620 Oh, who's doing that?
01:10:56.880 Is that in the news?
01:10:57.780 Yeah, Russia hacking our power stations.
01:11:00.960 What do you say?
01:11:01.640 We work on that one.
01:11:03.160 So how real do you think the power thing is to do with Russia?
01:11:17.660 I mean, I think there's a constant effort by Russia to gain.
01:11:21.000 Pathways to influence our in our country.
01:11:27.780 I think obviously I think the the election is part of that as well.
01:11:32.400 But like I think they all are always looking for leverage.
01:11:36.100 So that doesn't mean that they're going to.
01:11:37.700 I don't know that they're like where Al Qaeda isn't, you know, back in the day would be an active.
01:11:43.020 They were actively trying to do these things to shut down our country and hurt us where Russia, I think, is looking for leverage for the ability to be able to do it.
01:11:51.300 Like they like the idea that they can get it.
01:11:53.680 I don't know that Russia is, you know, I mean, they could they don't want to starve us to death.
01:11:59.060 Exactly.
01:11:59.340 That's not necessarily their end goal, but they're always looking for ways to leverage us.
01:12:03.380 And that may have been what they were doing with the election.
01:12:05.860 But we I think that that is there.
01:12:08.360 It's at least part of the goal.
01:12:09.760 And they know that they have it in case they need it.
01:12:12.300 Well, I mean, Putin said the next war is going to be fought with ones and zeros and not missiles.
01:12:16.380 I mean, what happens to you and your family if this if this happens?
01:12:21.300 You run to the grocery store.

01:13:50.660 Oh, my God.
01:13:51.500 I know.
01:13:52.260 I knew 40.
01:13:53.060 My wife told me that as we were walking in.
01:13:55.160 I said, how long is this?
01:13:55.960 She said 249.
01:13:57.060 I was like, oh, my gosh.
01:13:59.080 It is worth every second.
01:14:01.140 We finished it.
01:14:02.040 We were like, if we had time, we'd go again.
01:14:05.140 Go again.
01:14:06.240 It's like, it's like.
01:14:07.160 Really?
01:14:07.440 Yeah.
01:14:08.020 It really was.
01:14:09.360 It was like, it was just such a great ride that it's like, you know, if you could, if
01:14:14.080 you, you know, you're on Space Mountain and you get to the end and you're like, go again.
01:14:19.000 Yeah.
01:14:19.580 Without the line.
01:14:20.560 Without the line.
01:14:21.060 Okay.
01:14:21.440 It's really, really good.
01:14:24.220 Back in a second.
01:14:26.740 Glenn Beck.
01:14:28.180 You know, I, I, I just think that social media is maybe making us a lot more dumb.
01:14:33.780 Do you think there's, there's currently a hashtag being pushed by the BBC that is out right
01:14:40.680 now.
01:14:41.360 Hashtag no more boys and girls.
01:14:46.780 This is coming from one of the largest news outlets in the world, which is also publicly
01:14:53.780 funded.
01:14:54.400 They just ran an experiment where they dress up boys in girl clothing and girls in boy
01:15:00.260 clothing.
01:15:01.180 And then they sit back and watch as volunteer adults go to play with them.
01:15:05.780 Now there's some high level science here.
01:15:07.800 I don't know if you know this, but, um, you probably have no idea what the results are going
01:15:12.740 to be.
01:15:14.180 What happens when these adults sit down with a girl dressed as a boy and a boy dressed as
01:15:19.960 a girl.
01:15:20.820 Let's go straight to the video.
01:15:22.280 I think she liked that pink, pink dolly the best.
01:15:25.500 If I were to tell you actually that Sophie is Edward, does that change anything?
01:15:30.720 I maybe thought, Oh, this is a little girl.
01:15:32.980 So I have to give a little girl things.
01:15:35.980 No way.
01:15:37.680 Shut up.
01:15:38.780 A little like 18 month old dressed as a girl introduced as Sophie.
01:15:44.560 And the woman gives her like little pink elephant to play with.
01:15:49.640 Shut up.
01:15:50.680 Who would have ever seen that coming?
01:15:53.000 I mean, who would have ever thought that girls and boys might like different things?
01:15:57.540 I, I, well, they don't.
01:15:59.940 Apparently it's just us.
01:16:01.620 I don't even know where to start on this one.
01:16:05.200 First of all, I know he couldn't have been the only one disturbed to see these poor little
01:16:09.260 kids dressed up in clothes.
01:16:10.540 They're obviously not used to.
01:16:11.880 And then having strangers come in and repeatedly call them by some other name.
01:16:16.920 I mean, this is honestly borderline child abuse, isn't it?
01:16:19.980 Second of all, speaking of child abuse, what this video is attempting to do is to train
01:16:28.500 parents to coerce their kids into not accepting who they are.
01:16:32.780 Letting little boys be little boys and little girls be little girls is this is not as the
01:16:37.940 BBC put it conforming to a stereotype.
01:16:41.320 That's called nature.
01:16:43.680 Oh, these people piece me off.
01:16:46.180 Have they ever been around children before?
01:16:48.360 I mean, I'm sorry, you could be my sister.
01:16:52.240 She's she grew up in the 60s and she's a hippie.
01:16:56.320 She claims not to be, but she's a hippie.
01:16:59.720 And she she said she moves out to Wyoming.
01:17:03.480 OK, who moves out to Wyoming except hippies?
01:17:06.780 So, I mean, you know, from the Pacific Northwest, I just want to get away from it all.
01:17:11.380 Get away from it all.
01:17:13.320 It's it's you know, it's 1980 Seattle.
01:17:15.900 There is no all in Seattle in 19.
01:17:18.560 I want to get away from it all.
01:17:19.640 So she goes and gets away from it all.
01:17:21.240 And she decides when she's pregnant, she has a boy and she's not going to let them play
01:17:26.780 with guns.
01:17:27.980 So God forbid Uncle Glenn comes and gives them, you know, a toy gun or a truck.
01:17:34.480 No, no, no.
01:17:35.620 She gave up on that after she found her boys playing in the backyard, you know, with sticks
01:17:42.820 playing cowboys, Indians, army.
01:17:45.960 It's boys.
01:17:47.040 That's what they do.
01:17:47.940 It's nature.
01:17:49.680 Now, the BBC claims to be advocating empowerment.
01:17:55.120 But I think they're advocating child abuse.
01:17:57.500 Every generation in history of mankind is understood that males and females are different.
01:18:04.660 Does that make one superior over the other?
01:18:06.980 No.
01:18:09.380 But we need each other.
01:18:11.980 We're different.
01:18:13.240 But if they can make you doubt reality, they can eventually make you believe in anything.
01:18:21.740 And that is what this is truly all about.
01:18:27.500 It's Monday, July 30th.
01:18:31.380 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:18:33.760 I don't know about you.
01:18:34.380 I don't know any reason why I want to run to the movie theater and just escape.
01:18:38.780 I can't think of a single reason that makes you just want to turn off reality.
01:18:43.800 It's hard to be involved in it, isn't it?
01:18:46.620 It really is.
01:18:47.500 It really is.
01:18:48.420 Because, of course, I'm sure this is the same with you.
01:18:50.180 Every time you go do anything else, everyone wants to talk to you about the news.
01:18:55.420 No, I don't really have any friends.
01:18:56.680 No one wants to talk to you about anything.
01:18:59.500 But when I go do things, they know you work at a show that talks about the news all the time.
01:19:04.800 So they bring it up.
01:19:05.520 Just like you bring up their dentistry or whatever job they have.
01:19:10.300 Right.
01:19:10.920 Hey, how are the teeth?
01:19:12.540 How's the teeth thing working?
01:19:14.300 How's the enamel?
01:19:15.520 I mean, is that a big enamel day?
01:19:17.520 What is it that you do, really?
01:19:20.280 Because everybody, I just had my teeth cleaned and I went to the dentist and I only saw you
01:19:25.820 for about 10 seconds.
01:19:28.400 Somebody else did the x-ray.
01:19:30.440 Somebody else cleaned.
01:19:31.780 You just walked in, poked my gums with something and went, you're looking good.
01:19:36.940 What do you do all day?
01:19:38.100 It's kind of like if I hosted the show and at the end you came in and go, yep, you're right,
01:19:41.580 Stu.
01:19:41.940 All right, we'll talk to you tomorrow.
01:19:42.980 And it's still the Glenn Beck program.
01:19:44.840 How does this work?
01:19:46.200 I don't understand.
01:19:47.120 That's a good point.
01:19:47.500 Well, dentists have a great scam going on.
01:19:50.300 But we digress.
01:19:52.460 You didn't think we'd uncover anything today.
01:19:54.480 Well, we have.
01:19:55.260 We have.
01:19:56.400 Yeah, we're doing our homework.
01:19:57.840 They're in the back with the nitrous.
01:19:59.300 That's right, B.
01:20:00.520 Oh, I felt like such a wimp.
01:20:01.880 I went to the doctor and I, you know, I had when I was a kid, I had a doctor with the old
01:20:06.560 style.
01:20:07.120 I mean, this is like, you know, you have to you have to go back to old movies to even see
01:20:11.280 these with the old style syringe that were that was in the metal, you know, the metal
01:20:16.780 body on it, you know, the two big rings on the end.
01:20:20.960 So he stuck a needle in my gums and then let go and was like, oh, I forgot something.
01:20:28.820 And so the needle and the thing is just like, what?
01:20:31.800 Boing, boing, boing, boing, and snapped off.
01:20:33.940 And so he had to go dig it out of my mouth.
01:20:36.400 So anybody comes near me with what alley were you in that?
01:20:40.780 But this doctor, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I bet you do know
01:20:45.540 he left a needle hanging from your gums and then it was really, I hope you got very percent
01:20:53.480 off.
01:20:54.180 I, we still went to the dentist.
01:20:56.000 It was in those days where like, we're not going to sit.
01:20:57.700 Oh, it's just Bob.
01:20:59.120 Yeah.
01:20:59.380 Well, yeah.
01:20:59.700 Bob should not be a dentist.
01:21:01.440 Mom and dad.
01:21:02.060 Anyway, uh, so, uh, uh, so I, I'm sitting there and I am just, I'm just, I'm trying to be
01:21:10.140 really, really cool.
01:21:11.020 And finally the nurse is like, would you like some nitrous?
01:21:13.960 And I'm like, yes, please.
01:21:15.260 Yes, please.
01:21:16.540 It is.
01:21:17.320 I felt like such a weenie.
01:21:19.900 Oh, you're cleaning your teeth.
01:21:21.720 I am 100% on the nitrous bandwagon.
01:21:26.440 This has been a huge change in my life recently.
01:21:29.780 And then a lot of people come on the radio to talk about positive changes in their life.
01:21:32.580 This is a positive change in my life.
01:21:33.940 Is it?
01:21:34.120 Okay.
01:21:34.400 I'm doing a lot more nitrous.
01:21:36.180 It's great.
01:21:37.420 Right.
01:21:37.680 Every time I go to the dentist for any reason, I actually just really enjoy it.
01:21:42.400 I might stop by this afternoon just to make an appointment.
01:21:45.600 Exactly.
01:21:45.840 But I need nitrous to do it.
01:21:48.120 I know.
01:21:49.020 Someone say, that sounds like a drug problem.
01:21:51.000 It does.
01:21:52.420 It is.
01:21:53.120 It is.
01:21:53.920 But.
01:21:54.360 But.
01:21:54.760 It's under a doctor's supervision.
01:21:56.120 Exactly.
01:21:56.740 And here's the thing.
01:21:57.620 I mean, because I'm one of the people who, I keep over talking about this now.
01:22:01.200 I have, I had a one bad experience at the dentist a long time ago.
01:22:05.440 Tell me about it.
01:22:06.200 Where, like, just something happened and it hit a nerve and it really hurt really badly.
01:22:10.240 So now, every time I go to the dentist, all I think about is every single move in my mouth
01:22:14.340 is going to do, it's going to recreate that reaction.
01:22:16.400 Right, right.
01:22:17.340 Every time they come to me with anything in my mouth, I'm like, you're going to break
01:22:21.460 that off in my gums.
01:22:22.860 Exactly.
01:22:23.560 It's irrational.
01:22:24.720 Let it go.
01:22:25.340 Completely irrational.
01:22:26.220 So I get nitrous every time I go to the dentist for any reason.
01:22:30.420 And, you know, 99% of the time it's, you know, cleaning.
01:22:33.040 Luckily, I've been to the dentist a lot.
01:22:34.880 So I haven't had any tooth problems that are of any serious note.
01:22:39.740 But even for a normal cleaning, I am absolutely on board.
01:22:42.880 I don't wait until something happens.
01:22:45.580 I do it right off the bat.
01:22:46.980 In fact, I call ahead and I said, you know what?
01:22:48.600 Just to let you know, I know you never do this for anyone else.
01:22:51.400 And they give me the little wuss treatment, too.
01:22:54.420 They're like, wait, you know this is just a cleaning, right?
01:22:56.680 I go, yes, I do.
01:22:58.020 And you know what?
01:22:58.780 You know this isn't covered by insurance.
01:23:00.260 Yes, I do.
01:23:01.480 Now bring out the drugs.
01:23:03.000 That's what I say.
01:23:04.040 And they roll the tank out there.
01:23:05.820 And they put me under.
01:23:06.660 And it's fantastic.
01:23:08.140 So why is nitrous not more popular?
01:23:11.180 I've asked the same question.
01:23:12.320 Right.
01:23:12.420 And also, I've asked, I may have done some research on how do I get a tank in my home?
01:23:18.260 You might have done that.
01:23:20.100 You might have.
01:23:20.740 And so here's the thing.
01:23:22.540 Here's the issue.
01:23:23.660 How do I get a tank at home?
01:23:25.820 Because I was thinking about one day.
01:23:27.260 Right.
01:23:27.740 I had, we had a group outing, a friend's birthday party this weekend.
01:23:33.380 And we went out, as adults tend to do, not included in this room, had a few drinks.
01:23:38.680 Mm-hmm.
01:23:39.020 And maybe a couple too many drinks.
01:23:40.700 Right.
01:23:40.900 On Friday night.
01:23:41.620 Right.
01:23:41.960 Saturday, I woke up and felt like hell.
01:23:44.120 Right.
01:23:44.500 You know?
01:23:44.920 And that's not a big, normal occurrence for me at this point in my life.
01:23:48.140 Mm-hmm.
01:23:48.160 But it does occasionally happen.
01:23:49.580 Mm-hmm.
01:23:50.380 And I got, you know, this is what's so great about nitrous.
01:23:53.500 Mm-hmm.
01:23:54.260 You feel just as good as the greatest moment of that night drinking.
01:23:59.020 The night, in a half an hour, you're completely normal driving home.
01:24:03.500 It's insane.
01:24:04.380 And I think that's also the downside of it, though.
01:24:06.280 Because the only, you know, there's probably multiple downsides of it.
01:24:09.280 Don't call me if you're some scientist.
01:24:10.420 But one of the downsides of it is, you know, 20 minutes after you pull this giant apparatus
01:24:15.640 off your face.
01:24:16.520 Right.
01:24:16.860 You're no longer in, you're no longer anywhere near the great moments of nitrous.
01:24:21.320 Right.
01:24:21.380 Which, by the way, this broadcast brought to you by the makers of nitrous.
01:24:25.200 Right.
01:24:25.840 Today.
01:24:26.800 But it's one of those things where it just fades so fast.
01:24:29.420 It's not a particularly viable recreational drug.
01:24:32.920 Well, I have looked into this in that when you escalate usage, apparently, unlike all
01:24:38.500 other drugs, you need more and more to get the same sort of level, and it becomes a little
01:24:42.700 addictive.
01:24:43.520 Ah.
01:24:43.820 But the side effects, apparently not that dramatic.
01:24:47.740 Ha.
01:24:48.080 And that's why it's a popular...
01:24:49.740 I don't think that, I don't think you're thinking this through clearly enough.
01:24:54.660 Well, I am on nitrous, so I may not be thinking clearly.
01:24:56.700 So you were saying, you know, you were saying, you know, we went out.
01:24:59.420 I mean, it might, it might knock down some of the, I don't know, you know how everybody
01:25:05.580 looks better when you're drunk.
01:25:07.200 Right, yes.
01:25:07.680 You know what I mean?
01:25:08.200 Everybody looks better.
01:25:09.020 I don't think wearing a little cup over your nose, and having a hose, and carrying around
01:25:16.440 a tank in the back like you're an old man, you know, is really that, hey, so what's happening
01:25:22.580 with you?
01:25:23.080 First of all, this would not necessarily affect home usage.
01:25:25.300 Let's be honest.
01:25:26.280 Let's tell the truth.
01:25:27.760 Let's tell the truth here.
01:25:28.940 But I have thought of this.
01:25:30.320 And again, what year is it?
01:25:32.780 Yes.
01:25:32.980 Right?
01:25:33.260 It's 2018.
01:25:34.700 You're telling me we can't solve the face mask problem here?
01:25:37.760 There's got to be a solution to that.
01:25:39.760 Right.
01:25:40.000 Maybe you could just inject it.
01:25:41.920 Again, what if I walk around with a tank and a needle all day?
01:25:46.060 Right.
01:25:46.380 I mean, that would make this whole, all the media stuff feel so much better.
01:25:51.060 I really wouldn't mind a life on nitrous.
01:25:54.640 It's pretty good.
01:25:55.660 It is.
01:25:56.300 It's pretty good.
01:25:57.240 And what is really remarkable and kind of sad is that it does go away the minute you
01:26:03.460 stop.
01:26:04.060 You turn it off, and you're like, no, don't.
01:26:05.680 Well, it fades slowly, and then you're a little bit in a, I feel like I'm a little bit
01:26:09.980 like cloudy.
01:26:11.140 Like, I wouldn't necessarily want to come to a show.
01:26:13.520 Yeah, I'm not going to operate a nuclear power plant, but I'll do this.
01:26:18.080 Yeah, I guess.
01:26:18.880 We just blurt it out.
01:26:20.140 Gosh, you guys aren't making any sense.
01:26:21.640 Eh, what's the difference?
01:26:23.080 It's not like we're doing nuclear energy here.
01:26:25.220 All right.
01:26:25.400 I mean, here's the thing.
01:26:26.840 Most people, now sure, there's a television network involved, but put that aside for
01:26:30.560 a moment.
01:26:31.000 Most people hearing us right now are on the radio, okay?
01:26:35.060 Most people are taking in this show through audio only.
01:26:38.580 They wouldn't be able to necessarily see a face mask.
01:26:41.920 No, but it might change the sound.
01:26:44.200 Well, no, it's going over your nose.
01:26:45.820 So, Stu, tell me about the debt problem.
01:26:50.080 Put it over your nose and try to do the debt problem joke.
01:26:52.560 See?
01:26:53.020 Okay.
01:26:53.460 Yeah, you wouldn't notice it.
01:26:54.640 I mean, a little bit.
01:26:55.420 You would hear, I mean, when I'm thinking, you would just hear, it would be a little weird.
01:27:04.900 There'd be a lot of those times on the air, too, where we would both just be staring into
01:27:11.900 space and one of us would go, hey, wait a minute.
01:27:14.880 What were we talking about?
01:27:16.740 Oh, I'll remind you.
01:27:18.020 This break started with something different.
01:27:19.500 I brought up dentist, and that's how we got here.
01:27:22.960 I know, I know.
01:27:23.800 So, you're thinking it's going to be more coherent?
01:27:26.420 I mean, I can't be less.
01:27:29.900 There's a good chance we improve.
01:27:32.920 Again, I drive better on nitrous.
01:27:34.580 We should try it for science sake to see if the show is better if we brought on nitrous.
01:27:43.260 Oh, my gosh.
01:27:44.080 I don't think that, I think that would be dangerous.
01:27:46.260 That probably, I mean, I think it would be dangerous.
01:27:50.780 We would need a chaperone, because I think you're right.
01:27:53.800 Someone has to have the power of just turning the mics off at some point.
01:27:57.040 There has to be somebody in control.
01:28:00.020 It could go really awry.
01:28:02.240 We should do this.
01:28:03.160 This always legitimizes things.
01:28:04.760 We should do this for charity.
01:28:06.500 Yes!
01:28:08.040 And raise money how long, how many minutes before the mic has to be shut off?
01:28:13.700 Oh, my God, that would be, because I have the strangest thoughts when I'm in the dentist chair.
01:28:19.740 I create, I constantly create.
01:28:21.420 I really don't.
01:28:21.840 I just, I'm just, I'm just happy.
01:28:24.980 Seriously, you know what I think about almost every time?
01:28:26.900 I'm like, why isn't nitrous more popular?
01:28:29.980 I really, like, I want to start a business.
01:28:32.920 I don't, I don't, I just want to get in this line of work.
01:28:34.920 I don't know what it is.
01:28:35.940 See, the only thing that is thought to me was, it makes your car go fast, and it makes you feel this way?
01:28:44.920 All right.
01:28:45.540 You had a point, by the way.
01:28:46.660 I don't remember what it was.
01:28:47.580 And we should get back to that at some point.
01:28:48.740 We'll try to remember what it is.
01:28:49.980 We'll take the masks off here in a minute.
01:28:51.780 All right.
01:28:52.360 I want to tell you about real estate agents I trust.
01:28:56.220 Tanya and I were trying to sell our house a few years ago, and we were up in Connecticut.
01:29:00.660 And, by the way, have you seen the housing prices in Connecticut?
01:29:05.020 Holy cow.
01:29:05.920 Sorry, is this nitrous?
01:29:06.760 Is this nitrous?
01:29:07.360 Is this nitrous?
01:29:08.160 No, why?
01:29:09.140 Bad.
01:29:10.100 Really?
01:29:10.800 I mean, yeah.
01:29:11.880 Bad.
01:29:12.940 It's weird.
01:29:13.560 I mean, I looked recently at my houses up north that we owned around the time of the Great Recession.
01:29:19.300 We owned two houses, moved a couple times.
01:29:22.020 But both of those houses, according to, like, Zillow, have not recovered to the place that we sold them.
01:29:27.880 Yeah, me too.
01:29:28.840 Which is crazy.
01:29:29.420 We sold ours in...
01:29:30.660 Eight?
01:29:31.640 Yeah, 2008, I think.
01:29:33.300 Mm-hmm.
01:29:33.740 And still hasn't recovered, you know.
01:29:36.680 Anyway.
01:29:36.900 So we had a really hard time selling the house, and we needed a real estate agent that could really get the job done.
01:29:44.080 Well, we've done a lot of research and thinking since then, because it can't be that hard.
01:29:50.520 I mean, who do you hire?
01:29:52.320 Who do you hire?
01:29:52.880 How do you know who to hire that's going to sell your house on time for the most amount of money,
01:29:58.440 who has the right marketing plan?
01:30:00.700 Who do you do?
01:30:01.560 What do you do?
01:30:02.440 You just trust an ad that you've seen?
01:30:05.480 We have great agents that are in this long term.
01:30:11.880 They are the best in your area.
01:30:13.800 They have the best marketing plan.
01:30:16.420 They have the most amount of experience, and their track record is the best.
01:30:21.620 Okay?
01:30:21.760 They will help you every step of the way to get your house sold on time and for the most amount of money.
01:30:28.500 You'll find them at realestateagentsitrust.com.
01:30:31.620 You want to sell your home?
01:30:34.180 realestateagentsitrust.com.
01:30:35.460 Go there now.
01:30:36.240 This is a disturbing conversation we've just stumbled into here.
01:30:42.480 It's a good new business line, Glenn.
01:30:43.880 Come on.
01:30:44.180 I don't think this sounds wrong.
01:30:46.360 You've got internet.
01:30:46.860 You've got TV.
01:30:48.240 You've got radio.
01:30:49.540 You've got books.
01:30:50.540 And you've got nitrous.
01:30:52.580 I mean, I'm willing to head off this department.
01:30:54.060 So how come this isn't a bigger problem?
01:30:55.560 I mean, this is much better than opioids.
01:30:58.100 Because there's not the downside of it.
01:30:59.600 That's the big thing.
01:31:00.440 You wake up the next, you're legitimately an hour later completely fine.
01:31:03.840 It's got to like burn your brain out or something.
01:31:05.620 It does.
01:31:06.080 It's not according to the Cracked Magazine.
01:31:08.880 Oh, well, Cracked Magazine.
01:31:10.260 Yeah, Cracked had did a big expose on this to talk about the long-term effects.
01:31:15.720 And so it's not illegal.
01:31:17.880 It's not illegal.
01:31:18.620 No, you can use it.
01:31:19.880 So why isn't it being used by, I mean, seriously, why would you do opioids?
01:31:25.940 We're 20 minutes into this.
01:31:26.780 Probably time for the disclaimer that you should not actually do nitrous like this.
01:31:30.120 Right, right, right, right.
01:31:30.980 There is an issue where some people get to, it's not addictive per se.
01:31:35.620 But it is one of those things where if you really like the feeling.
01:31:39.600 Oh, it's mentally addictive.
01:31:41.220 And yeah, it's one of those things that if you get into that pattern, you can start to want to do so much.
01:31:45.020 But there's stories of people who want to do 100, 200, 300 hits of it a day.
01:31:49.900 And that's how it's easily acquirable, is my understanding.
01:31:52.700 Yeah, see, I would just want one.
01:31:53.600 From a lot of research.
01:31:54.480 That would start at the morning when I got up and ended when I went to sleep.
01:31:57.400 See, I'm thinking like, I'm thinking like, I go to the movie, I go to see Tom Cruise's movie, right?
01:32:02.200 I'm going to see Mission Impossible.
01:32:03.620 I bring along my nitrous tank, I wheel it down the aisle, I sit on the end, I pop it on and watch a nice movie.
01:32:08.560 It'll be great.
01:32:09.300 And then I get up and I drive home.
01:32:11.280 I mean, this is an enjoyable evening.
01:32:12.920 I am serious.
01:32:14.300 Why is this not done by people?
01:32:17.980 I think it is done by people, but I don't know that you can just acquire a tank.
01:32:22.740 Why would you do crack?
01:32:23.800 Why would you do, you know, what is the drug, the popular drug that makes your teeth rot and your...
01:32:29.540 Like meth.
01:32:30.140 Yeah, meth.
01:32:30.940 Why would you do any of that?
01:32:32.440 Why not go to nitrous?
01:32:33.220 I mean, you can order it easily online in small hit form.
01:32:37.040 No, I'm serious.
01:32:38.040 I mean, I'm not, you know, this isn't healthy conversation coming from an alcoholic.
01:32:42.940 But, you know, if you're going to meth, wouldn't you think, oh, this is probably better?
01:32:50.080 First of all, I could stop my nitrous anytime.
01:32:52.000 I just don't want to.
01:32:53.240 I just like it.
01:32:53.680 Anytime.
01:32:53.780 I could try to take off.
01:32:53.920 So I don't do it.
01:32:54.620 I'm in full control.
01:32:55.840 But no, I think it's because it's so short.
01:33:00.520 I think that's the issue.
01:33:02.080 Wesley in Ohio.
01:33:03.440 Hello, Wesley.
01:33:04.100 You're on the Glenn Beck program.
01:33:06.140 Glenn, privileged to talk with you.
01:33:08.140 I talked to your screener about the nitrous in a car is different than the food grade nitrous that you're breathing.
01:33:15.460 Good thing I haven't.
01:33:17.020 Good thing I haven't tried to take a hit out of a car.
01:33:21.960 It's found in the spray whipped cream in the can.
01:33:27.460 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:33:28.240 That same nitrous is in that can.
01:33:30.240 That's what propels and causes the expansion of the cream.
01:33:33.620 So if you hold the can upright and you ingest it, breathe in that air.
01:33:38.740 Yeah, no, those are called, what is it called?
01:33:40.040 Whippets.
01:33:40.620 Yeah.
01:33:40.800 Right?
01:33:41.200 That's called whippets.
01:33:41.860 And that's not a good thing.
01:33:43.020 No, it's not.
01:33:44.300 It's the same nitrous as what you're talking about.
01:33:47.080 But what's the difference between the nitrous there and the nitrous in the car?
01:33:51.100 We've only had 30 seconds.
01:33:51.900 You know I'm into the car business.
01:33:53.220 I do not know the difference.
01:33:54.620 But I wouldn't take any nitrous from a car.
01:33:56.740 Well, no, I wouldn't.
01:33:57.960 I wouldn't either.
01:34:00.020 I wouldn't either, even if you were a doctor and said it was okay.
01:34:03.780 I wouldn't do that, but I appreciate it.
01:34:06.500 All right.
01:34:06.920 Thanks, Wesley.
01:34:07.660 Back in just a second.
01:34:13.940 So I went to see the Tom Cruise movie this weekend.
01:34:17.900 It is.
01:34:18.680 Now, I'm a big fan of Tom Cruise.
01:34:20.500 I'm a big fan of Mission Impossible series.
01:34:23.500 But I think each of the Mission Impossibles are getting better as they go.
01:34:27.620 It's like the opposite of what, you know, sequels used to be.
01:34:31.500 It does seem that way.
01:34:32.220 I didn't like the early ones that much.
01:34:33.860 And the last couple have been really good, I thought.
01:34:35.560 I did.
01:34:36.240 But when you watch them, because the family we watched over the last four weeks, we'd watch
01:34:40.760 One Mission Impossible building up to this.
01:34:44.400 And so we've seen all of them.
01:34:45.980 And they're getting better.
01:34:47.440 This one is the best by far.
01:34:49.720 It is just a rocket ride the entire time.
01:34:55.540 And what makes this more impressive is the fact that he did all of his own stunts.
01:35:02.240 I mean, he learned how to fly a helicopter in a corkscrew dive, which is one of the hardest
01:35:08.880 things to do.
01:35:09.680 He learned it in like three months.
01:35:11.340 That's really him flying.
01:35:14.060 That's really him climbing the rope.
01:35:16.440 That's really him on the motorcycle.
01:35:19.300 One hundred and twenty miles an hour on with oncoming traffic in Paris.
01:35:25.380 And they were filming it and they had some safety device on the bike and everything else.
01:35:31.720 And they couldn't get the shot.
01:35:33.640 And Tom said, just take it off.
01:35:36.440 Just let me do it.
01:35:37.320 And they're like, I don't know.
01:35:39.740 Don't think so.
01:35:40.700 Just take it off.
01:35:41.820 And they took it off.
01:35:42.500 So that's every stunt you see, he's doing.
01:35:47.380 He's not doing.
01:35:47.720 There's no.
01:35:48.980 Not that I know of.
01:35:50.080 Not that I know of.
01:35:50.740 This is from from what I have heard.
01:35:53.300 Everything that you see his face on, there's no superimposing.
01:35:57.240 But you see him on the rock, you know, on the cliff face.
01:36:00.180 You see him, you know, falling out of airplanes.
01:36:03.680 And he heard it.
01:36:04.580 He broke his ankle.
01:36:06.020 Right.
01:36:06.240 I don't know.
01:36:06.540 Because at one point he had to do the air jumping out of the airplane scene.
01:36:11.240 106 times.
01:36:12.040 Oh, my God.
01:36:12.680 He had to jump from the plane 106 times to get the shot right.
01:36:17.540 Oh, you've got to be kidding.
01:36:18.240 Is that incredible?
01:36:19.000 Yeah.
01:36:20.020 That kind of attention to detail.
01:36:21.880 That's, you know, that's why he makes 25 or 30 million.
01:36:24.140 Nice.
01:36:24.520 I'm telling you, though.
01:36:25.300 He's incredible.
01:36:26.100 And you know what?
01:36:26.580 I think he is.
01:36:27.920 You know, we all really liked Tom Cruise.
01:36:29.940 And then he jumped on Oprah's couch.
01:36:31.460 And everybody's like, he's a freak.
01:36:33.600 And I think that's I think he's officially put that away.
01:36:37.060 It feels that way.
01:36:38.100 You know, he's just that likable Tom Cruise guy again.
01:36:41.300 You know, and he's just he just seems like a good guy.
01:36:45.320 And then I mean, geez, he's what, 56, 57, 56.
01:36:52.620 Look at him.
01:36:54.540 Look at him.
01:36:55.460 He's a sexy man.
01:36:55.880 He's still a sexy man.
01:36:57.060 Yeah, he is.
01:36:58.360 He is.
01:36:58.700 That's not the nitrous talking.
01:36:59.780 He's still a sexy man.
01:37:00.620 I mean, you watch him run in some of the scenes.
01:37:02.940 He'll be running and jumping on rooftops.
01:37:05.160 That's where he broke his ankle.
01:37:06.340 And you'll see him running and jumping off of these rooftops in in London.
01:37:11.260 And he's running like he's 20.
01:37:15.260 I mean, the guy just has power.
01:37:17.800 It's amazing.
01:37:18.740 It is amazing.
01:37:19.640 Yeah.
01:37:19.880 And his career is amazing.
01:37:21.500 You know, we were just talking about some of the movies he's done in the past.
01:37:24.240 Almost all of them are super enjoyable.
01:37:27.060 Really great.
01:37:27.760 I mean, there's very few exceptions.
01:37:29.940 All the way back.
01:37:30.560 Eyes Wide Shut.
01:37:31.520 Eyes Wide Shut and Vanilla Sky would be right off.
01:37:33.280 I didn't see that one.
01:37:33.580 Those are probably exceptions.
01:37:34.760 I didn't see either of them, but I hear they're not great.
01:37:36.820 Yeah, they were not good.
01:37:38.120 I mean, Interview with a Vampire.
01:37:39.740 No, that wasn't good.
01:37:41.100 But you think about Top Gun, Minority Report.
01:37:44.220 Great.
01:37:44.800 Oh, yeah.
01:37:45.740 Valkyrie.
01:37:46.620 Valkyrie's awesome.
01:37:47.900 That's one of those movies that if it's on, I have to watch it.
01:37:50.520 Yeah.
01:37:50.760 I don't know what it is.
01:37:51.740 So great.
01:37:52.460 It's a Nazi thing you have to watch.
01:37:53.620 You have to watch it.
01:37:54.200 It's a rule.
01:37:55.320 But I mean, American Made came out last year.
01:37:56.720 It was really good.
01:37:57.600 Really good.
01:37:58.180 Was it?
01:37:58.580 It wasn't one of those movies that tons of people saw, but it was really good.
01:38:02.080 Should have.
01:38:02.600 It was really good.
01:38:03.380 It's a true story.
01:38:04.220 Yeah.
01:38:04.560 True story.
01:38:05.100 About an American drug dealer?
01:38:07.120 No, CIA.
01:38:08.740 That's how the CIA was trying to, you know, use Manuel Noriega and the drug lords to, I
01:38:17.280 don't even remember what.
01:38:17.900 Yeah.
01:38:18.220 It was really good, though.
01:38:19.020 That was really good.
01:38:19.900 Edge of Tomorrow.
01:38:21.060 That was good.
01:38:21.580 Is that Die Rinse Repeat or whatever that is?
01:38:25.340 Live, Die, Repeat.
01:38:26.280 Live, Die, Repeat.
01:38:27.020 They changed the name after the theater run for some reason.
01:38:30.540 It's weird.
01:38:31.660 That's how I know it.
01:38:32.540 What is it?
01:38:33.040 It was Edge of Tomorrow initially.
01:38:35.840 At the movie theater, I went to see Edge of Tomorrow.
01:38:38.560 And then Live, Die, Repeat is on demand.
01:38:40.980 It's strange.
01:38:42.460 Wow.
01:38:42.620 I don't think I've ever seen that happen.
01:38:43.760 I think they released it internationally, maybe, as Live, Die, Repeat.
01:38:47.080 Really?
01:38:47.480 And then their big thought was the reason why it didn't do, and it did $100 million, but
01:38:53.440 for a Tom Cruise movie, that's not all that much.
01:38:55.680 And they think that just people didn't know what the heck it was about.
01:38:58.200 Like, they thought that the Edge of Tomorrow just didn't say anything.
01:39:00.440 Yeah, it didn't do all that.
01:39:01.320 I mean, it did well, but not fantastic.
01:39:03.620 It was good.
01:39:04.160 And I thought it was really good.
01:39:05.240 I really liked it.
01:39:05.680 I really liked it.
01:39:06.460 Yeah.
01:39:06.700 I mean, he's had a couple, I mean, Rock of Ages was kind of a disaster.
01:39:11.440 But I mean.
01:39:11.800 Sort of the Def Leppard story.
01:39:13.020 Didn't see that.
01:39:13.800 Right?
01:39:14.040 Yeah.
01:39:14.520 I think.
01:39:15.600 Plus, that was on Broadway for a long time.
01:39:19.480 Yeah.
01:39:19.820 That?
01:39:20.340 He was in that?
01:39:21.360 Yeah.
01:39:22.140 Uh-huh.
01:39:22.400 Wow.
01:39:22.840 That just doesn't seem like a good decision.
01:39:24.800 But there's been a lot of big movies in the Tom Cruise career.
01:39:28.160 I don't know if we're breaking news by saying that, but he's had a decent run.
01:39:32.180 Oh, God.
01:39:32.820 I mean, you want to go back that far.
01:39:34.060 Great movie.
01:39:35.000 Fourth of July, of course.
01:39:37.240 I mean, he is really.
01:39:38.320 A Few Good Men.
01:39:39.240 The Firm.
01:39:40.500 I mean, these are Jerry Maguire.
01:39:42.400 Oh.
01:39:42.660 One of my all-time favorites.
01:39:44.300 I love Jerry Maguire.
01:39:45.080 I mean, there's a lot there.
01:39:46.680 War of the Worlds.
01:39:48.240 Yeah.
01:39:49.440 Wow.
01:39:49.840 He's probably our generation.
01:39:53.200 Jimmy, no.
01:39:54.840 Who would he be?
01:39:55.800 He's got to be the biggest movie star, right?
01:39:57.420 I mean, there was a time where, like, you had Tom Hanks was in that discussion, right?
01:40:01.320 Like, Will Smith.
01:40:02.880 I mean, Denzel Washington.
01:40:03.980 There's a certain amount of people in that discussion.
01:40:05.880 I don't know if there's anybody on that level.
01:40:07.100 Tom Hanks was that guy, and he still is a huge movie star, but he's not still going.
01:40:13.400 Right.
01:40:14.200 You know?
01:40:14.600 He's still not making those blockbuster hits.
01:40:17.740 Well, was the post big?
01:40:19.420 The post was pretty big, right?
01:40:21.040 Not commercially.
01:40:22.740 Yeah, and it wasn't a Tom Hanks vehicle.
01:40:26.200 It was Meryl Streep more than anything else, which was probably the mistake they made.
01:40:29.440 Let's be honest about it.
01:40:31.780 Throw that junk in the middle of a movie.
01:40:33.340 I love it when your Meryl Streep hatred comes to the surface.
01:40:36.540 I love it.
01:40:37.700 I mean, it didn't make money in the theater.
01:40:39.720 $81 million on a $50 million budget.
01:40:42.100 It was a good movie, though.
01:40:43.380 It really was a good movie.
01:40:44.960 Yeah, they just put Meryl Streep in it, so it's not going to do that well.
01:40:47.620 But is it slanted?
01:40:49.060 Is it like...
01:40:50.200 No, I thought it was unbelievably...
01:40:52.940 It's one of those movies that you're looking at the people like Meryl Streep, and you're like,
01:40:57.800 do you understand the words that are coming out of your mouth?
01:41:02.160 Oh, really?
01:41:02.600 Oh, yeah.
01:41:03.580 It's like, you know, at one point, they're sitting around talking about, you know, we
01:41:07.100 gave Jack Kennedy a pass, and he's the guy who started all this.
01:41:12.180 Why?
01:41:13.120 He used us.
01:41:14.760 We shouldn't be friends with the president.
01:41:17.080 We should be objective the whole time.
01:41:18.960 Wow.
01:41:19.180 And as they're saying it, you're like, yes, hello.
01:41:23.760 Wow.
01:41:24.180 It's amazing.
01:41:25.460 It's amazing.
01:41:26.080 Because I've avoided it for that reason.
01:41:27.940 I thought, ah, that's...
01:41:28.900 No, it's actually...
01:41:29.560 I didn't think so.
01:41:30.340 I thought it was pretty good.
01:41:31.080 I thought it was pretty good.
01:41:33.060 This is...
01:41:33.860 People are...
01:41:34.540 I guess this is a big thing going around Twitter right now.
01:41:37.000 I think apparently...
01:41:38.100 I don't know.
01:41:38.600 True?
01:41:39.540 That Tom Cruise is older...
01:41:42.080 Yes.
01:41:42.400 ...than Wilford Brimley was in Cocoon?
01:41:44.400 Yes.
01:41:44.740 He's currently older than Wilford Brimley was in Cocoon?
01:41:48.560 That went away.
01:41:49.940 That's impossible.
01:41:50.960 It's not.
01:41:52.100 It's not.
01:41:53.340 That's impossible.
01:41:54.960 It's not.
01:41:56.380 I mean, he's jumping off roofs and jumping out of planes.
01:42:00.960 That's not the same guy.
01:42:02.060 Well, I mean...
01:42:02.700 Wilford Brimley and Tom Cruise.
01:42:04.380 No.
01:42:04.920 Completely different guys at 56.
01:42:06.520 And the...
01:42:06.960 I mean, the Kelly McGillis pictures that have been tossed around...
01:42:09.900 Oh.
01:42:10.020 I mean, I feel bad.
01:42:11.120 Oh, I feel bad.
01:42:11.400 I do, too, because, you know, it's not a flattering shot of her to begin with.
01:42:16.700 Would you like to make that a little more accurate?
01:42:20.820 Because if you haven't seen this...
01:42:22.240 That's a very kind statement.
01:42:24.260 It's a 1980...
01:42:25.840 What was it?
01:42:26.140 86?
01:42:26.800 Yeah.
01:42:26.900 In 2018, back to, you know, four pictures total.
01:42:30.480 The two pictures at the top are the original...
01:42:32.360 It's actually one picture, but the original picture of Cruise and Kelly McGillis in Top Gun.
01:42:35.980 And then they show both of them today.
01:42:37.600 Cruise looks identical to what he looked like.
01:42:39.400 He's only a little thicker.
01:42:41.440 Yeah.
01:42:41.600 He's not fat.
01:42:42.340 He's just...
01:42:42.920 Yeah.
01:42:43.080 Yeah.
01:42:43.380 He's just thickened out some.
01:42:45.180 And then she looks like...
01:42:47.240 Completely different.
01:42:48.080 Everybody else, I guess, would after a long run.
01:42:51.200 You know?
01:42:51.660 She looks like...
01:42:52.460 And you don't mean run.
01:42:54.100 Like...
01:42:54.500 No.
01:42:55.680 It's...
01:42:56.100 No.
01:42:56.380 40 years or so.
01:42:57.340 It looks like she's been...
01:42:58.780 You know...
01:42:59.140 She's aged like humans age.
01:42:59.900 She's aged like we have over 36 years.
01:43:01.920 Yes.
01:43:02.160 Exactly.
01:43:02.660 Yes.
01:43:03.040 It's not a knock on her as much as it's a compliment to him, I think.
01:43:05.400 Well, look at everybody in that cast.
01:43:07.120 Have you seen Val Kilmer?
01:43:08.460 Oh, yeah.
01:43:08.980 Well, Val's had his issues.
01:43:10.760 Wow.
01:43:11.560 Yeah.
01:43:12.080 I mean, I'm looking up pictures of Val Kilmer and I'm feeling good about me.
01:43:15.520 Wow.
01:43:17.340 I heard Val has...
01:43:20.200 Slimmed back down a little bit.
01:43:21.960 I've heard that as well.
01:43:22.860 Because he was going after the...
01:43:24.200 And I think he's in it.
01:43:25.460 He's in the new Top Gun.
01:43:26.680 Is he?
01:43:27.180 I thought...
01:43:27.660 I think so.
01:43:28.340 Because I heard initially he wasn't.
01:43:30.140 But then I saw that he was.
01:43:31.520 So, I'm not sure which is accurate.
01:43:33.300 But...
01:43:33.540 You kind of...
01:43:34.140 Everybody's excited for the new Top Gun.
01:43:36.320 I...
01:43:36.680 Oh, I love Top Gun.
01:43:38.760 You didn't like Top Gun?
01:43:39.500 Yeah, it was okay.
01:43:40.080 Well, when you're a guy...
01:43:41.180 Are you a communist?
01:43:42.260 Right.
01:43:42.420 How could you not have liked Top Gun?
01:43:43.720 No, I liked Ronald Reagan.
01:43:44.580 Okay.
01:43:45.020 I liked Ronald Reagan.
01:43:46.180 I mean, Top Gun.
01:43:46.820 Exactly.
01:43:47.260 That's what a man would watch Top Gun, right?
01:43:49.380 And then there's Glenn.
01:43:50.740 That's right.
01:43:51.380 That's true.
01:43:52.100 Wait a minute.
01:43:52.620 Wait.
01:43:52.980 Hold it.
01:43:53.460 Just a second.
01:43:53.800 You know what I'm saying?
01:43:54.680 I think you're...
01:43:55.380 No, I kind of get what I'm...
01:43:56.500 I think you're trying to say I'm not a man.
01:43:59.360 Oh, yeah.
01:43:59.900 No, it was pretty obvious, I guess.
01:44:01.040 In retrospect, I wasn't really...
01:44:02.660 There's no veil there.
01:44:04.160 Okay.
01:44:04.600 Got it.
01:44:05.040 Get out.
01:44:05.540 Get out.
01:44:06.520 Both of you.
01:44:07.180 Get out.
01:44:07.740 Oh, cool.
01:44:08.180 I get to leave.
01:44:09.160 No.
01:44:09.860 Punishment.
01:44:10.320 You stay.

01:46:12.740 Well, we have to have our thoughts and prayers with a woman who is remaining nameless in the
01:46:25.760 story because of the tragedy that has befallen her.
01:46:28.820 She's 24 years old.
01:46:33.120 She just got married to a 26-year-old guy and they had been married less than a year.
01:46:40.440 And she started to think, you know, there's something going on.
01:46:44.500 There's something, something's not right here.
01:46:47.200 She said, my husband was distant all of a sudden.
01:46:50.820 He wasn't around.
01:46:52.300 There was little conversation.
01:46:53.740 He started to disappear.
01:46:54.920 He said he was having to stay late at work and then he had to travel away from work, yada, yada, yada.
01:47:00.360 Um, and so she called investigators and some private eyes and they saw the physical signs.
01:47:10.800 They said, you know, she, she, she got them.
01:47:13.200 There's changes in dress coming home later and later.
01:47:15.620 You know, when guys take their cell phones everywhere with them and they leave it face down, the investigator said, these are all the warning signs.
01:47:23.400 He could be messing around.
01:47:25.660 So they went out and they did surveillance, uh, on her, uh, or on him.
01:47:31.200 And, uh, she said, I put a lot of guilt on myself.
01:47:34.780 You know, I couldn't understand, you know, what I was hearing and seeing.
01:47:39.100 I mean, what had happened.
01:47:40.620 And, uh, then they, uh, returned with, uh, video footage and when she, when she saw who the woman was, uh, she said, well, it was a, a, a total fog of disbelief.
01:47:57.880 Apparently, um, her husband had been a frequent visitor to dating websites offering trysts and, uh, they had uncovered that he had registered with several dating websites and, and, uh,
01:48:10.620 she kind of suspected that though.
01:48:12.360 Yeah.
01:48:12.720 And, um, and so they followed him to one of these, uh, trysts and, uh, they video, they, they had the videotape of him, uh, at 26, uh, making it with a, uh, a mother of two and a grandmother of four.
01:48:29.320 Uh, she's 72 years old.
01:48:33.080 That probably was surprising.
01:48:35.140 I would not the way you necessarily just.
01:48:38.320 No, I just think, uh, you know,
01:48:41.740 Why was that because he's surprising what old people can't enjoy and be at the prime of their, they certainly can.
01:48:48.860 Yes, they certainly can.
01:48:50.100 Right.
01:48:50.480 You know, right.
01:48:51.180 I just think that maybe it was surprising that it's just the distance of the drive, you know, just to get all the way out there, you know, it's.
01:48:58.280 And probably the distance of, uh, of the sag to, you know, potentially that was maybe a little shocking.
01:49:07.560 It's a little, I mean, look, well, you know, we've all, uh, there's many movies now that come out about this.
01:49:13.280 Like, what's the, what's the one that, uh, last Vegas, I think every, they've been trying to make last Vegas, like every three months for the past several years.
01:49:20.740 I've never even heard of it.
01:49:21.860 Oh, really?
01:49:22.360 It's like, uh, every aging celebrity goes to Vegas together.
01:49:26.360 Oh, okay.
01:49:27.080 Yeah.
01:49:27.180 It's like one of those type of movies.
01:49:28.160 So, I mean, you know, look, I, there's documentary evidence here that live, uh, do some really fun things.
01:49:34.640 Well, apparently this isn't the only 72 year old woman that he has been with.
01:49:38.720 So, so he's got a, a sexual preference, Glenn.
01:49:43.200 Right.
01:49:43.600 And you know what?
01:49:44.260 I don't know if you're criticizing his preference, but I hope not.
01:49:47.740 It bodes well for her future.
01:49:49.440 You know, a lot of women, as they get older, they're like, my husband's going to find some younger, but nope, not him.
01:49:56.420 This is the reverse situation.
01:49:57.880 The older you get, the more chance you have of him being turned on by you, apparently.
01:50:03.600 So.
01:50:04.940 Longevity.
01:50:05.460 The secret of life.
01:50:07.400 Yeah.
01:50:07.940 A long lasting relationship there being built.
01:50:10.280 It's wonderful.
01:50:11.000 She said she hasn't divorced him yet.
01:50:12.780 Uh, she said, uh, I want to, I want to quote this one.
01:50:16.400 Uh, she said, it's a difficult time at the moment.
01:50:19.440 It can be, uh, but it can be great to get rid of somebody so toxic in your life.
01:50:24.580 So I, I think she's, she's, she's made the decision to dump him.
01:50:28.140 She's leaning a direction.
01:50:29.680 Leaning that direction.
01:50:31.100 You know, when you're called toxic, uh, you know, but Hey, so if you're 72, check out the websites because, you know, there just might be some 26 year old.
01:50:46.960 Hard body that is, is interested.
01:50:52.960 Glenn Beck.
