00:01:13.120 program made that i made where were we right where were we wrong it's important because we have new

00:01:20.340 predictions to make and i believe this is a critical year a a bridge over troubled water and i'll explain

00:01:28.680 that coming up also what did we learn in 2018 that can be applied in 2019 the seven things that i'm going

00:01:37.700 to pay attention to and i need you to pay attention to in the next 12 months and a personal goal

00:01:45.220 i'd like to see anybody join me on all begins right now

00:01:54.420 this is the glenbeck program all right let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour it's american

00:02:02.940 financing um you know i just got a letter from jp morgan chase scared the hell out of me stew i

00:02:10.560 meant to bring it i think i actually did bring it in um i'll have to read it to you it is a letter

00:02:15.820 that says hey if you have money in the stock market you can use that to buy your new home

00:02:22.500 we'll just we'll just count anything that you have with jp morgan chase uh in stocks as your down payment

00:02:30.720 fine print in the end it says uh by the way if the stock market goes down you're either going to

00:02:36.840 have to come up with that down payment or we can liquidate anything oh my gosh oh we have not

00:02:44.020 learned a thing since 2000 well we've learned a thing how to do this better yeah how to do the

00:02:48.720 2008 thing even better oh my gosh uh american financing does not do any of that kind of stuff

00:02:54.320 and they work for you they're salary-based mortgage consultants at american financing that means

00:03:00.760 they do what's right for you not for the bank that's trying to sell you a loan american financing

00:03:08.200 dot net call them now 800-906-2440 american financing dot net 800-906-2440 american financing dot net

00:03:19.780 american financing corporation nmls 182334 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org

00:03:26.860 right back to the show in 10 seconds here

00:03:29.400 so i learned a lot uh in 2018 and i started making notes um while i while i was gone on vacation

00:03:45.260 started thinking about the things things that i have learned in 2018 that we need to apply to our

00:03:53.720 thinking in 2019 2019 i think is a bridge um this is this is a bridge from the old world to the new

00:04:04.460 world i think it will be remembered in history as that year that people started it started to dawn

00:04:11.440 on people oh wow everything will change i think by 2025 you will be printing new maps i think there will

00:04:21.800 be new borders by 2025 everything's about to change but who am i to say let's look at the predictions

00:04:30.480 that we made in 2018 to see if any of them happened we got some right we got some wrong let's go

00:04:38.340 through uh stew and maybe we come up with grades of these as we kind of go through them okay let's see

00:04:42.920 how right or wrong they were all right all right you predicted 2018 uh the dow will melt up and then

00:04:48.760 crash so dow did hit the high in october um and then since october it's i mean it's crash the right

00:04:56.720 word it's definitely come down quite a bit 12 of its value i i don't i don't give myself uh

00:05:02.920 uh points on this one because i i don't think this is what i meant well i know this isn't what i meant

00:05:11.180 a melt up was not 26 000 a melt up was over 30 000 uh and a crash was more significant so i would

00:05:20.660 say um i i mean directionally it was pretty much right yeah so i'd give it maybe a c c plus okay

00:05:28.040 maybe do you think it gets fair i think you go i mean the difference between 26 and 30 000 isn't

00:05:33.900 all that dramatic i mean you could probably go you know b minus maybe all right i'll give you a b minus

00:05:38.940 on that one uh economic instability will bring with it powerful and dangerous nationalist and

00:05:44.080 socialist movements yellow uh i mean that's i think i get an a on that one i would say yes i mean that's

00:05:50.480 even if you like some of the elements of some of those movements um i mean certainly some people love

00:05:55.740 the socialism as we're seeing uh in in congress these days yeah trump has called himself a nationalist

00:06:00.600 which i don't think is the same thing as what i mean by nationalist i don't think he thinks of it that

00:06:05.700 way but we've seen the neo-nationalist movement uh the uh the rise of of neo-nationalist in italy

00:06:12.500 in france in belgium in germany in uh india to marys of south america i mean there's definitely a

00:06:19.340 lot there on that one uh governments will crack down on blockchain and cryptocurrencies

00:06:23.220 uh there were some countries did sort of outright ban cryptocurrencies um and certainly china

00:06:30.380 there's a big effect india um columbia i think had something there's a few of them that cracked down

00:06:37.240 on it i mean the united states didn't really and they seem to be open still to these things i mean

00:06:43.680 that's a there's some there's some they did begin investigations um yeah i i i i don't know i still

00:06:51.900 i think that's a b yeah because i mean some of it definitely happened yeah right but i mean and

00:06:57.380 obviously it was a terrible year for cryptocurrencies as well uh still on that front we've got uh

00:07:02.700 blockchain technology will be embraced by companies for hundreds of uses and utilities

00:07:06.360 i think i give this a b as well um 15 percent of companies surveyed by uh market watch uh have

00:07:16.380 uh a blockchain initiative uh that is live so adoption is coming soon but it is not adopted yet

00:07:24.340 i will say too at some point someone has to use this stuff for something useful yes you know i like

00:07:30.080 we a lot of people like to compare this people who like cryptocurrencies like to compare this to

00:07:34.720 the uh the tech bubble and there are you want to look at charting you want to look at all sorts of

00:07:41.020 you can definitely make those ties however pets.com right blew up into this big thing and then crashed

00:07:46.620 and disappeared but we all understand that pets.com generally speaking was a useful utility to people

00:07:53.120 right buying your pet food online we're all buying you know not everybody but i mean i know we order a

00:07:57.920 lot of our stuff from amazon or whatever online i mean pets.com didn't wind up being the one who did

00:08:02.760 it but at least there was a kernel there of something useful to people yeah as of right now like there's

00:08:07.380 it does not seem to be it's all like well we can build uh exchanges but see here's the problem and

00:08:14.080 then we get into blockchain a little bit more but um we should kind of move on but um the the thing is

00:08:20.240 is that blockchain it hasn't gone to zero no by any stretch no no it's still very valuable yeah it's

00:08:27.340 still very valuable and all of these major companies are making major moves they just haven't put them

00:08:34.860 into place yet they just haven't cut the ribbon on them yet and so when they cut the ribbon but

00:08:40.540 they're all moving all of the big institutional investors and everybody else is moving and and

00:08:46.040 spending millions of dollars on you know cryptocurrency um desks and trades and some of it's been announced

00:08:56.820 some of it is is still speculation but it's not it's not capturing because everybody thinks because um

00:09:06.180 because cryptocurrency or bitcoin looks to the average person like it's a tulip bulb it's not a tulip bulb

00:09:17.060 these bulbs you plant because they will grow this is not just a tulip bulb there is something more to

00:09:25.220 this than just tulips if i remember right the tulip bulb thing um was tulips were not worth four times

00:09:31.320 what they were two years earlier after the crash correct right like that's still there correct so

00:09:35.380 there's still there's still there um companies will adopt cryptocurrencies and blockchain yeah that's

00:09:41.000 kind of the same kodak overstock chase bank yeah they give it a b yeah um now this one is worth doing

00:09:46.580 this entire segment just for this prediction uh if you put a thousand dollars in the top 10

00:09:51.000 cryptocurrencies in january 2018 it will be worth two hundred thousand dollars by january 2019 no um i'm

00:09:57.320 going to go ahead and say that one was an f yeah i think that's an f i think that's an f i think that's

00:10:01.780 an f but you know what at some point i believe that's going to happen i i'm with tika on this one

00:10:08.600 it makes no sense other than our over pessimistic view because of what happened last year there's too

00:10:18.640 many good things that have happened with this to have this fall and not move it's going to move

00:10:24.280 it's going to go up and when it does it will because of all the things that have already

00:10:29.620 happened right i mean it's hard to believe these big companies are wasting their millions of dollars

00:10:34.820 like there's some reason they're putting this yes their cash into that uh the uh let's go up next

00:10:40.160 here uh market now i mean cryptocurrencies that's an f we get enough market cap is an f all right let's

00:10:46.840 go to international geopolitics yes turkey will continue to run towards religious fascism

00:10:51.400 and will continue to make hard turns towards sharia law uh he just jailed erdogan uh just uh

00:11:00.880 jailed a mother and son who insulted him uh he also announced that he is going to remove the ethnic

00:11:07.520 kurdish militia over the border of syria he is well on the way i say that today yeah that's definitely

00:11:14.860 the the way that's moving uh cultural clashes between immigrants and natives will cause backlash from

00:11:19.940 the public across western europe uh do i need to say anything about that that one's widely covered

00:11:25.460 i think yep uh persecution of christians homosexuals non-muslim religious minorities and those muslims

00:11:31.080 not deemed muslim enough will reach new lows for humanity in the middle east and asia uh didn't

00:11:36.800 didn't do it in the middle east per se they've already had lows i mean they're they're at the same

00:11:42.820 size lows the limbo can only go so low i don't know how much lower you can get on that because of

00:11:48.380 asia and what's happening in china china is i think that's an a plus a million muslims uh and it's just

00:11:55.720 growing and in concentration camps essentially yeah and china is bad too yeah before we go and before we

00:12:01.900 go into uh more let me just stop for one minute uh and tell you a little bit about relief factor

00:12:07.880 uh relief factor uh i'm celebrating an anniversary yeah that's right this is i mean i remember you

00:12:15.140 being completely unbearable to deal with thank you a year ago thank you and now you're just slightly

00:12:20.440 unbearable to deal with yeah uh mainly because the pain is under control pain is uh a part of

00:12:28.100 millions and millions and millions of americans lives and uh the way to deal with it is has been

00:12:34.300 by taking drugs and that's just awful just awful for your body awful for your brain awful for everything

00:12:40.880 uh there is an alternative it is called relief factor now 70 of the people who take relief factor

00:12:48.300 they try it for what is it 20 or 30 days yeah it's two weeks isn't it yeah it is a two weeks yeah you try

00:12:54.540 it um and uh 70 of the people go and order more the next you know right after they run out they order

00:13:03.180 more for a month it's working for them it's working for me that's 70 you got a 70 chance of getting rid

00:13:09.540 of the pain that you're living in or at least dramatically decreasing that pain uh i would do it

00:13:16.240 i did and it works it's 19.95 for the three-week quick start that's a dollar a day try it right now

00:13:25.900 go to relieffactor.com or call 800-500-8384 you got a new year get a new life get your life back

00:13:36.320 get out of pain relieffactor.com that's relieffactor.com pause for 10 seconds station id

00:13:43.840 so we'll spend a few more minutes here uh the glenbeck program going over the predictions that

00:14:04.720 i made for 2018 uh and great on whether we got them right or wrong so far what'd you say pretty

00:14:11.780 good i mean with the exception of your cryptocurrency prices yeah pretty good yeah uh another socialist

00:14:16.380 country will see its currency collapse now this is a tough one because i mean certainly venezuela

00:14:21.480 saw its currency collapse even further than uh than it was last year but it was sort of underway when

00:14:27.760 you made this prediction i mean it reached a million percent uh inflation a million what do you want

00:14:34.100 how do you grade that one was there another example i mean there's some other cuba cuba has red lines

00:14:40.660 argentina had some issues as well uh i would say that's a solid b i mean i don't know that there

00:14:45.820 was another perfect example of it but it's pretty close yep the return of the 12th imam will be used

00:14:51.180 by the leaders of iran in a desperate attempt to hold on and consolidate power articles out last year

00:14:56.460 but it is not you know obviously the 12th imam is not mainstream um but they are did see him at a uh

00:15:03.120 at a quick trip last week really yeah he's getting gas uh yeah i got one big on the hot dog roller

00:15:08.080 things which i was surprised about just thinking about the whole picture uh but uh he was into it

00:15:13.160 really yeah so he is back but i don't know if iran's picked it up yet so we'll get to that one

00:15:17.400 after but i mean again that was definitely there's definitely movement in that it's a b the interesting

00:15:21.320 part of that too i think is the impression the pressure on iran i mean it has that they are further

00:15:26.740 down the road of trouble as a country um you know largely because you know the moves made i think by

00:15:32.840 our government and in a positive way the trump administration's been very uh very good on that i think

00:15:37.900 um china will this is a bizarre one i remember when you said this one i was like what are you

00:15:41.940 talking about it was like it was so random in the middle of all these production uh predictions uh

00:15:47.040 and and i will say completely wrong by the way uh china china will land a rover on the dark side of

00:15:54.180 the moon yeah crazy a year ago you said that i didn't had no idea what you were talking about yes

00:15:58.940 and i failed and you failed it happened in what the first week of january second it happened january

00:16:05.660 second i was wrong by two days this one's incredible because you haven't heard much talk

00:16:10.900 about it if you haven't followed that story why is it important why would you even put that on the

00:16:14.540 prediction okay because because the dark side of the moon is the only place that is completely shielded

00:16:21.840 from earth why do you land on the dark side of the moon well there's a couple of reasons you could

00:16:28.020 land on the dark side of the moon because you want to listen to space in total silence because it is

00:16:35.060 it creates the moon creates this hole where nothing that is coming from earth can get past the moon

00:16:42.840 so there's this hole in space where it is completely silent now look at it the other way

00:16:50.460 because no radio no video video nothing can penetrate the moon you also have a place where you can do

00:17:01.220 anything you want and no one on earth knows you're doing it okay it's it's bizarre that china is doing

00:17:10.680 this and a year ago it was oh they're that's crazy they're never well okay i was wrong i said they do it

00:17:18.760 in 29 at 2018 they did it on january 2nd 2019 so obviously we give that one an f

00:17:25.840 wait hold it you missed by two 48 hours 48 hours that is an amazing one though because it was so

00:17:32.240 random and no one was talking about it uh the we'll go to politics here this will be interesting

00:17:36.760 the freedom movement will experience somewhat of a renaissance both in the u.s and globally

00:17:41.520 um i there is voices right and i think that it is changing a renaissance i i think it is

00:17:51.300 um changing there's a new approach to it and that's what renaissance really means it's the voices

00:17:58.580 like sam harris it's the voices that are standing against uh not just like tea party voices uh but

00:18:08.780 voices from the far left that are now starting to gather together uh the the three scientists that we

00:18:17.080 had on that were you know showing that these journals are completely uh nonsense the uh people

00:18:27.140 mainly from canada that are standing up so strong i think there is a renaissance going on i think it's

00:18:34.440 one of the most important things we can do honestly is encourage the voices not i mean obviously the

00:18:38.420 conservative voices are going to be for free speech and and not for you know boycotting people into

00:18:43.160 oblivion every time they say something but there's a an increasing amount of people on the left who

00:18:47.940 think it's absurd you know and that is i think incredibly important to cultivate we talked about

00:18:53.020 the louis ck thing you were you were out for where he did this rant and he was talking about how

00:18:57.060 ridiculous it was you know these you know people are like royalty they demand to that you address them

00:19:02.800 in a particular way by whatever gender they've they've decided on that particular day like that's not

00:19:07.860 like some hardcore conservative they're trying to make it into him being some hater no this is just

00:19:11.800 these are people who who care about free speech and care about free expression that are admitting

00:19:15.680 this in public and it needs to what would you give that i think that's an a i think that's pretty

00:19:20.240 solid yeah i mean there definitely has been voices and it's not the encouraging thing is it's not just

00:19:25.440 you know us conservatives right like it's not that sort of thing no it's just not us um the press

00:19:29.460 will be continue to be discredited by the white house a yes okay uh the movement to impeach trump

00:19:36.960 will persist a yeah and you're going to see that coming even more i mean that's yes since they feel

00:19:42.180 very newly empowered now that they have the house and they will try nancy pelosi may try to stop them

00:19:47.120 because she sees she's going to see the political downsides of an impeachment movement but she will

00:19:52.720 do everything short of that i think to to encourage investigations and everything else unless they

00:19:56.580 until they can come up with something they think will stick uh churches will continue to lose power

00:20:01.860 and influence try this on for size um a study of registered voters before the november midterms

00:20:09.820 found that less than 10 percent of likely voters identified religion or religious belief as

00:20:17.480 influencing how they were going to vote less than 10 percent is there a equivalent number to that

00:20:24.240 in the same story it was 32 percent uh midterms 2002 wow i mean that that's a fast drop yeah of two

00:20:32.900 thirds yeah so i think that's that's an a okay um the muller investigation into russia hacking um

00:20:40.240 uh and any connection to the trump administration will finally be put to rest

00:20:44.080 um well wasn't put to rest d i can't say that's an f i think that's a d yeah maybe it's an f i mean

00:20:51.700 it didn't didn't come to rest right i mean there there have been a lot of things that have come out

00:20:55.040 of it it's an f um so i mean i mean it comes out again it's another one of those things it could come

00:21:00.440 out at any any day into russia election hacking i mean there isn't it's not at rest but there is

00:21:07.020 there's nothing they haven't produced anything yet but the investigation is not over so i think that's

00:21:11.360 fair uh the trump administration will finally begin construction of a true wall between us and

00:21:15.640 mexico f thought he would do it f uh in the u.s gun rights advocates will finally get their long

00:21:22.140 sought concealed carry reciprocity unfortunately not even close we actually went the other way we

00:21:26.200 started having uh new restrictions on gun ownership uh the me too movement will continue to grow 2018

00:21:31.600 and 19 will be the apex i think 18 is the apex was the apex of it yeah that's probably true uh we'll

00:21:38.580 see i mean we'll see where it goes but i mean they can't even we can't even play baby it's cold

00:21:41.700 outside anywhere on the radio so i think this is there u.s supreme court will strike down pro-labor

00:21:46.420 laws that uh enable unions to take dues from workers involuntary they did that did happen yeah that did

00:21:51.420 happen in june yep uh the gop will lose the house in 2018 uh and narrowly hold the senate i mean that's

00:21:57.680 right there the trump administration of federal government in general will be hung hamstrung through

00:22:01.240 2020 in terms of any other major government actions other than military interventions i mean that's

00:22:06.060 exactly what happened i mean we'll see what happens in the next few months with that but i mean that's

00:22:10.540 exactly the results so what's coming next what's coming in 2019 and what did we learn from 2018

00:22:19.040 all coming up this is the glenn beck program

00:22:24.060 you're listening to glenn beck according to the experts here are some of the top cyber security

00:22:35.660 predictions for 2019 ransomware is going to taper off but will still wreak havoc as crypto jacking

00:22:42.920 and other money-making schemes increase government regulation and public sentiment on privacy will drive

00:22:49.440 the drive stronger data protection policies i don't know if you saw the billboard with apple recently

00:23:38.740 heard them all which one was it we'll give it to you coming up

00:23:40.920 welcome to the glenn beck program uh pat gray is joining us now and speaking of predictions i think

00:23:53.360 moron trivia has the best record in the nfl now yeah 14 and three i mean there's a couple of 13 and

00:24:01.260 three teams that may become 14 and three but by that time we could be 15 and three so that's true

00:24:07.940 uh it's crazy best record in the nfl uh with an incredible commissioner on friday you were able to

00:24:12.980 predict the philadelphia eagle double doink as they won uh on the last second field goal and

00:24:17.680 if i had to just predict that game i would have absolutely said chicago yeah and most people

00:24:22.140 would have said chicago yeah it was overwhelming guess but yes the philadelphia eagles are still

00:24:25.980 defending super bowl champions anyone betting yet on moron trivia yes uh a lot of people now

00:24:32.060 really i mean look we've had a nice supreme court ruling on gambling this year people have found ways

00:24:36.880 to do that even when there wasn't a supreme court ruling right but i mean people are legitimately

00:24:40.580 placing bets based on the results if not thousands of dollars really on trivia bets yeah it's crazy

00:24:47.100 it's so weird i think the bet it's moron trivia has always had a good decent record um and a few

00:24:55.400 years i believe once it was 15 and one um this may be the best if not the second best it's in the

00:25:05.160 top three it's in the top three but that's this i mean you can't make that up no you can't just can't

00:25:10.580 make that if it were up to me to predict those games i'd probably be i don't know seven and eight oh

00:25:15.680 yeah i mean experts are constantly under 500 on predicting these games uh and uh moron trivia

00:25:20.920 somehow 14 and three it really is incredible it really is incredible and that even overwhelmed

00:25:26.240 because we had a very controversial moment in which uh pat asked if the uh what is a common

00:25:31.680 kitchen appliance and it was questionable whether the guy said stove or soap

00:25:37.140 it was a very very controversial moment we even went to the replay machine but it wasn't conclusive

00:25:42.960 proof so we left it alone we left it alone and the eagles held on uh again and we could talk about

00:25:47.840 that for a couple hours if you'd like as well but i'd rather get to something else which is the worst

00:25:52.080 political predictions of 2018 that glenn's on the list yeah and it should be now my what a buffoon

00:25:58.600 right if i were going to put him on the list i would say the dumbest prediction of 2018 was to say

00:26:03.700 that that china would land a rover on the dark side of the moon in 2018 what a buffoon didn't even

00:26:08.980 happen till january 2nd 2019 48 hours late you know this is this is going to be like the caliphate

00:26:17.180 soon the new york times will have a will have a podcast out dark side of the moon

00:26:22.560 this is where they get all the podcast ideas but they make billions of dollars off of glenn's

00:26:27.900 predictions uh but they actually did have one of them in here and there's a couple from

00:26:31.000 from our uh our friends uh here in the network and and other friends of the show uh so listen this

00:26:37.260 is the one they picked because we just listed every single one of your predictions from 2018

00:26:40.640 all made in you know january 10th ish last year so not like in the middle of the stories they say

00:26:47.180 one of the worst is they rated it 14th of the year 14th worst the muller investigation will be put

00:26:52.360 to rest and no significant charges will be leveled against anyone now yes it has not been put to rest

00:26:58.500 obviously most have there been any significant charges for the russian election hacking right

00:27:05.660 i mean i think that's the big thing you wrote russian election hacking and i you know you can

00:27:10.380 come up with this there's been a total of as politico writes here they've uh 33 people have

00:27:15.060 been charged with over 100 criminal counts now that includes actual russians and some of those actual

00:27:21.020 russians were in the election hacking but i mean that is not what you were talking about you're not

00:27:25.580 saying like will russians be charged you were talking but i'll take it to this this didn't

00:27:29.680 happen i'll take that well it didn't the investigation didn't end so we know for sure what it wasn't

00:27:34.340 perfectly accurate but is it one of the worst of the year now you can go on if you want to say

00:27:37.900 charges no i'd like to say everyone in the media that kept saying over and over and over this time

00:27:44.420 we got him yeah this time we got him i mean so manafort charges but again not related to the

00:27:50.660 russia hacking um uh michael cohen uh yes charges but not related to the russian hacking he was

00:27:57.700 doing things that were potentially illegal related to the election but nothing to do with russia per

00:28:02.320 se um you know i mean i don't know george papadopoulos uh he lied pled guilty to lying to the fbi but

00:28:11.420 you know it was it was related to international contacts and such was that a major right again i did

00:28:18.200 you know who george papadopoulos's name do you even know his name in 2018 in january i don't think i did

00:28:23.540 no so i mean to call it one of the worst of the year is a bit of a stretch is it not i mean i think

00:28:29.180 yes you can stretch it into saying it's it's not exactly accurate but it was a ben shapiro was on

00:28:35.560 this list of worst worst uh predictions which i totally disagree with the ben shapiro one's ridiculous

00:28:41.960 they had this is the sixth biggest uh the worst prediction of 2018 according to politico

00:28:47.620 susan collins and lisa murkowski will kill brett kavanaugh's court nomination now first of all

00:28:52.320 murkowski did vote against kavanaugh so one of the two right off the bat is actually true but didn't

00:28:57.160 kill the nomination didn't kill the nomination right because collins went along with it uh now

00:29:02.800 it's true it was not an accurate prediction however they they came pretty freaking darn close

00:29:08.960 to doing it wasn't it's not absurd i mean i think most people at one point or another believed that

00:29:14.380 this thing was going down in flames it wound up holding on by legitimately because of mccain uh not

00:29:19.740 being around at the time by one vote they hung on and it was just collin or just murkowski uh and

00:29:25.960 collins and that back and forth i just call it one of the worst predictions of the year is pretty

00:29:29.500 laugh it seems like what was their number one worst prediction because it seems like that was kind

00:29:34.260 of lame too it's most of them were i thought uh yeah the number one worst prediction amazon will be

00:29:40.320 place hq2 in boston big deal did you hear that amazon is making amazon air uh and it is going to be

00:29:52.600 headquartered at alliance airport here in dallas no yeah it is they're flying amazon air is that for the

00:30:00.960 drones what is it i don't know amazon air yeah i think god i think that's the drone program i don't

00:30:08.900 think so i think it is i think it's their shipping i i can't imagine that it's an airline but they're

00:30:15.800 calling it amazon air so maybe it is right giving them my entire salary i might as well fly with them

00:30:20.280 getting the frequent flyer program i think it's a combination of the shipping and the drones but i

00:30:23.960 could be wrong i haven't spent any time on it but well dallas lost out on the headquarters on the hq2

00:30:29.340 thing right and that went to who did that go to new york and manhattan oh no sorry manhattan in

00:30:35.100 washington they really they i mean they needed a couple years to figure that one out go to the

00:30:40.900 biggest city in america and the place where all the politicians are that's a that was a tough one i

00:30:46.200 how did amazon come up with that i mean wow there's an article that came out about what a scam that was

00:30:51.660 how they scammed so many cities because that was apparently at least the thought was in the article

00:30:58.240 that that was their plan all along of course it was yeah of course it was all of these companies

00:31:04.540 are looking to be political now they've got to be in the media center and the political center which is

00:31:11.660 which is laughable because i tell you i i took a i took a uh 24 hour drive with my kids uh over the

00:31:21.960 holiday and the dog how'd that go oh my god great fun fun i'm seeing you by your expression that that

00:31:29.720 was fun you bet with a capital f actually i had a blast the kids did not but i had a blast um i'd do

00:31:37.360 it again in a heartbeat i thought it was fun um but the one thing that i noticed driving the country

00:31:43.340 is that nothing's really changed nothing's really changed politics are changing the media is changing

00:31:51.320 dramatically the people are just the same the towns are just the same everybody no no i didn't stop

00:31:58.660 anywhere where everyone was freaking out about donald trump or freaking out about the media or

00:32:05.740 freaking out about any in either direction in either direction everybody was just going on with

00:32:13.180 their life do you think it's i mean i think because uh to know that you actually have to talk to

00:32:19.780 people which none of us want to do and increasingly don't right like you're you're texting you're seeing

00:32:25.360 people post horrible things online but actually talking to people outside of your inner circle gets

00:32:31.100 more and more rare every day and so you don't recognize that people are just normal and living normal

00:32:36.160 lives you just see their like online profiles freaking out i i stopped if you know not like we were

00:32:43.000 going to stop um because we were going to do a total blackout uh but what i did is i just if i

00:32:49.380 tweeted or if i uh facebook post something i didn't go back and look at stuff no comments yeah i didn't you

00:32:58.000 know after the holidays or just just stayed away and i didn't look at any news i feel so good yeah i feel

00:33:05.300 so you're not looking at the comments it makes a world of difference yeah the comments inevitably whether

00:33:10.360 you're on everything whether you're looking at a sports story or a political story the comments

00:33:16.180 are just bludgeoning people yeah for no reason and i didn't look at i didn't look at any news like

00:33:24.220 yesterday you know i started looking at the news and i'm like huh government's been shut down for

00:33:31.500 three weeks that's amazing i can't imagine what the media has been saying and how horrible it is to

00:33:38.760 oh my gosh the government is shut down i didn't notice any difference in anybody's life the people

00:33:44.640 that are noticing it are the actual employees who aren't getting paid and that's mainly it and that's

00:33:48.600 it and that's a big thing and i feel for them yeah but i it hasn't affected my life at all yeah i went

00:33:54.520 through a tsa line and the guy someone asked how's your holiday going it would be better if i was

00:33:58.780 getting paid like you know like that's real right like you're i mean that is a real thing for these

00:34:03.140 people and it's an important no i mean beyond um you know security should be taken care of the

00:34:09.540 military should be taken care of those guys should be those are not non-essential employees and that's

00:34:16.560 why they're forced to come right like a lot of these other people are get to stay home and don't get

00:34:20.080 paid which still if you need your money you need your money sure but to actually be forced and

00:34:24.520 they're suing over this and i think they're right how can the government force you to go to work

00:34:28.100 without paying you how can they do that because it's the government right but that's completely

00:34:32.100 i mean i know i know everything this country stands for i know and yet they're doing it anyway

00:34:36.760 i don't i know but quite honestly with an exception of those employees that are showing up

00:34:43.800 and should be paid those if you're having to show up you should be paid non-essential employees

00:34:50.640 on that i don't i mean i think we should kind of concentrate on non-essential employees

00:34:57.220 being non-essential pat uh other than byu winning the football ncaa championship next year

00:35:04.220 do you have a 2019 prediction uh on the pat gray unleash program that you can uh you can bless us

00:43:22.120 right employee for you at zip recruiter.com slash beck go there today zip recruiter.com slash beck

00:43:40.760 so what were the big stories last year and what did we learn from them what did we learn last year

00:43:48.620 what do you think the biggest story to take information uh from was and apply it this year

00:43:56.740 hmm that's a it's a tough one yeah that's a tough one i thought it was kavanaugh that's a i mean that

00:44:05.620 probably the biggest story of the year the biggest single single story dominated the news for at least

00:44:10.980 what two months it felt like i thought it taught us a lot and if i if i may i i want to break out

00:44:17.580 some stories that happened last year and say what happened and is there something that we can find

00:44:24.660 useful to be able to decode the stories that are coming our way or to see what's happening politically

00:44:32.420 so let's start with kavanaugh i think that uh the kavanaugh story taught us many things but most of

00:44:41.100 them revolve around 2019 is an election year and it doesn't it doesn't matter what happens what anyone

00:44:50.360 says it's all positioning now for 2020 that's all this is and that was really the start of the

00:44:57.400 election year it was it really was because you saw people i mean the easiest examples are people like

00:45:01.840 uh cory booker i am spartacus right and the ridiculous kamala harris stuff they're all trying

00:45:07.820 to position themselves as i i am so against donald trump and the things he's doing that i will even

00:45:14.240 break the law to do it remember cory booker yes i'll break the law i'm basically this is my spartacus

00:45:19.740 moment which brings me to one of the things specifically that we should learn from last year

00:45:25.300 and that is that democrats have no stop on taxes i mean sorry on tactics no stops no they they it does

00:45:35.120 not matter anymore they accuse a guy of gang rape with no evidence i don't know where do you go from

00:45:42.140 there outside of actual physical violence where do you go outside of that but if you look at one of

00:45:45.960 the other big stories of the year it was school shootings also no stop they had no stop on that

00:45:54.100 so what do we take from that well we take that it's an election year that the democrats will say or do

00:46:03.060 anything to uh get elected they will use any emergency at all and they will actually stand and claim to be

00:46:12.440 spartacus when it makes no sense which is leads me to what we should learn and that is

00:46:20.740 that don't work anymore that doesn't really work anymore and for a couple of reasons we have so

00:46:29.640 unhinged from reality that people think of those tactics as a joke when when you're shutting down the

00:46:40.260 the government we know that the government's not going to default we know that the government is still

00:46:47.720 the airplanes are still going to fly we know all those things the scare tactics don't work anymore

00:46:53.640 and people are at the end of their tolerance level for this kind of stuff the cory bookers standing up

00:47:01.840 i am spartacus doesn't work the making charges and allegations without any evidence to back it up

00:47:08.840 it doesn't work for a couple of reasons one the democrats have no stops and so they overplay their hand

00:47:16.900 that will continue and two the media isn't as powerful as it once was yeah i think there's a

00:47:23.880 time in which if you made a completely unsubstantiated argument and said brett kavanaugh is a gang rapist

00:47:31.160 there was a time in which that probably does work oh because it's so far out like you wouldn't say that

00:47:37.160 if it wasn't true or if you didn't have evidence and now i think the american people are at the point

00:47:41.700 where well yes they will say that if there's no evidence we've seen them do it 500 times

00:47:46.020 so i'm not going to believe it and what you're talking about i think too when it comes to the

00:47:50.840 election part is there is these guys are totally incentivized to make this worse when you are

00:47:56.520 sitting there and you're elizabeth warren and uh and you're going against kamala harris and cory

00:48:02.760 booker and beto o'rourke and all of these guys who have to get left-wing activists to vote for them

00:48:09.760 and donate money to them they are just going to be a constant uh contest to flop over themselves and

00:48:17.400 move left it's going to get crazier and this is going to be a fun year in that in that if you'd like

00:48:22.500 if you like watching the nonsense it's going to be a fun year for it the effects on the nation are a

00:48:27.980 whole nother story but it's going to be it's going to be wildly entertaining so here's let me give you

00:48:33.720 kind of some predictions a foreshadowing of what i see coming and we're going to deal with actual

00:48:39.740 predictions here in the next few days um but one of the things that again you get from kavanaugh and

00:48:46.940 you get even from the border wall thing is that politics is nothing more than a game period and it is

00:48:55.220 it is devolved into a game whose object is to piss the most amount of americans off at the

00:49:03.500 other side now you saw this with kavanaugh but you're seeing this with uh the border wall the

00:49:10.440 government shutdown what does this become about what's this become about um donald trump is evil

00:49:17.600 and wants to stop mexicans from coming in the country right and is uh now torturing federal

00:49:23.000 employees to get to this evil goal right and what are the democrats talking about what they want to do

00:49:30.100 with money um with the same five billion dollars are you talking about talking about the debt the

00:49:37.960 republicans are charging the democrats are charging that their race the republicans are racist and the

00:49:45.240 republicans are saying look what nancy pelosi has on her list of things to do and she's wanted she

00:49:50.220 wants to shove this through um but she won't touch the border wall i mean there's endless stuff i mean

00:49:56.060 abortion planned parenthood abortion money overseas okay those are two hot buttons the border and abortion

00:50:06.140 that's all this is this is to piss each side off period it's not about actually doing anything

00:50:16.000 i i go back to um minimum wage i don't believe in a national minimum wage

00:50:22.660 it's it's it's ridiculous the minimum wage to live in new york i don't even know what that should be

00:50:30.320 fifty dollars an hour what should it be the minimum wage in you know west in uh idaho

00:50:38.740 is probably seven bucks an hour they're vastly different you can't do this what you can do

00:50:48.700 if you don't if you're if you don't think like a politician is you could say all right well every

00:50:54.540 area has to set their own and i'm not suggesting this i'm just saying so you don't ever have to deal

00:51:00.020 with it again if we're going to have minimum wages area every area and every state has to set their own

00:51:04.940 uh and it is just fixed to the cost of living so the cost of living goes up the minimum wage goes up

00:51:13.080 we don't have to have this argument every five years every three years every two years whatever

00:51:18.800 it is they like having it on the menu though correct why oh like they it's it's they can

00:51:24.140 fundraise off of it they can get people angry they can say how evil the other side is because they

00:51:28.760 don't want their own wage increase exactly they want to keep it on the table as an art as a hammer

00:51:33.240 essentially to hit the other side with so it is it's a political game just to piss you off

00:51:38.860 um and nothing actually happens until the run-up of the election and who benefits both parties do

00:51:48.180 i've seen this before and it is the orrin hatch flag burning amendment conversation that we had with

00:51:58.660 him years ago in the tea party movement he said i can get these people to calm down all i have to do

00:52:05.040 is introduce a flag burning amendment and everybody will fall back in line and i remember do you

00:52:10.740 remember you were sitting there i was there sitting there going this is insane yeah he really doesn't

00:52:17.460 get it his argument was essentially if we introduce a flag burning amendment then we can get people out

00:52:22.420 to the polls because they'll care about the flag burning amendment and they'll they'll come vote for

00:52:26.620 our candidates it was it was like a using that to get people out to vote for the candidates it wasn't a

00:52:31.520 real belief in flag burning stuff it was just a tool to get people to go out and vote and i think those

00:52:39.280 days are over and i don't think the democrats or the republicans but especially the democrats have

00:52:47.520 learned that lesson and what does that mean for the democratic party in the next 18 months

00:52:54.860 will tell you and also what what did we learn from donald trump this year that is important to apply

00:53:04.140 in 2019

00:53:05.360 never more than 60 seconds away from content on the show stand by for more field of greens a product

00:53:15.340 that is a real superfood i mean superfood is really ridiculous you look at the container and it has

00:53:20.800 supplement facts well if if it has supplements that it's not a superfood man it means that it's a

00:53:26.940 bunch of stuff ground up and then they put a bunch of other stuff in it to make it a superfood

00:53:31.680 the idea of creating real superfood is for instance kale which i hate and i can't stand green smoothies

00:53:40.340 i had green smoothies all through the holidays anyway superfoods he's pleased about that i'm really

00:53:48.580 pleased about it my daughter was with me want a green smoothie dad no no i'm a human i know i don't

00:53:56.060 anyway brick house nutrition they've created field of greens and it's a real superfood you look at it

00:54:02.180 it just says nutrition facts it doesn't have any supplement facts it's nutrition because it's an

00:54:06.620 actual superfood one scoop of field of greens has a full serving of real certified vegan vegetarian

00:54:12.680 and usda organic fruits and vegetables complete with prebiotics probiotics and antioxidants it's

00:54:41.580 so what did we learn from donald trump this year what did we learn from all of the trump stories that

00:55:02.440 could uh be applied and we should apply the lesson to 2019 i think the biggest

00:55:11.400 lesson we learn happened right before christmas and it's that donald trump

00:55:18.880 will fold on things that are big to his supporters but if his supporters stand up

00:55:27.860 he goes back and says oh wait a minute i want to do over the border is the number one thing i think

00:55:35.680 you should learn from donald trump in 2018 and it empowers you right if you're if you're a supporter

00:55:40.860 of donald trump like he really he does seem to move and listen to his his supporters which is a good

00:55:46.140 thing right i mean i'm i'm glad he's listening to his supporters on most of these cases um and that

00:55:51.440 we did see that i mean he it it was uh it definitely seemed like he was going to give in on this border

00:55:57.180 issue and now he's not he's got to find a way out of it and it's not necessarily going to be easy but

00:56:02.740 you know it's important to stand up for these things i mean you know you wish you would have been

00:56:06.480 able to do this with republican control it would have been a lot easier to get through but yeah i

00:56:11.480 you know he does seem to react to that it's happened several times uh in his presidency where it looks

00:56:17.840 like he's going one way which is not necessarily a good way for conservatives conservatives stand up

00:56:22.620 and make a lot of noise about it and he reverses himself that's really important because you haven't

00:56:27.440 had a president or even a candidate in you know uh the senate or the house that actually listens to you

00:56:35.480 donald trump does listen if his people stand up he does listen and correct course and i think that's

00:56:43.440 incredibly important to to learn especially in 2019 also um 2019 can be looked at as a year

00:56:56.200 i believe uh of of a bridge to true fundamental transformation of the united states of america

00:57:09.140 and the world i think this is the bridge that this time next year you're going to be standing on the

00:57:16.780 other side of the bridge and you're going to go holy cow it is all going to change it's going to change

00:57:23.600 it's going to change rapidly and this is the bridge to that uh change by 2025 i believe the maps will

00:57:30.740 have been changed uh so we have profound dramatic change coming our ways and one of the ways it's

00:57:37.440 going to manifest itself this year is what should we learn from 2018 2018 was the beginning of the tea

00:57:47.520 party movement for the democrats the democrats uh put a bunch of socialists in and you're seeing this

00:57:58.940 socialist wave and they put these socialists in and they're either going to tear it apart from the

00:58:07.360 inside or they're going to become nancy pelosi and chuck schumer which will tear it up on the outside

00:58:15.920 does that make sense to you do you know what i'm saying still what do you mean by become nancy

00:58:20.320 pelosi and chuck they will either become your standard politician and they will just say the right

00:58:27.580 things for their constituents and not do anything or uh and if they do that their supporters will go

00:58:36.680 crazy the socialist supporters are social supporters are not going to like that so this is the beginning

00:58:42.060 of the the tea party movement if you will i think for the democrats in 2018 it's just a different direction

00:58:50.820 it's 180 degrees in the opposite direction of the tea party and they want donald trump impeached

00:58:58.380 they want socialist policies they're not looking for sweden they're not looking for holland what they are

00:59:06.960 looking for is true socialism communism they are looking to take the means of production

00:59:15.400 away from uh the capitalists elizabeth warren said it with medications right she said she wants to

00:59:21.700 create a new new service in which the government makes medications makes them not just pays for them

00:59:26.760 that actually produces them that is the definition of socialism of socialism textbook yeah so uh you have

00:59:34.220 these people and and i think that the democrats like uh schumer and pelosi actually lose i think

00:59:44.480 pelosi is going to be making this transition again this is a this is a bridge year and she's going to be

00:59:51.340 making this transition from the new to the old and i think they're going to be more afraid of their

00:59:58.020 constituents than the gop was afraid of the tea party and there's good reason for it the

01:00:04.160 tea party constituents they were just moms and kids and families that came out and had enough

01:00:09.160 and expected the rule of law and expected decency and then didn't get it and what do you do you pick

01:00:15.760 up a pitchfork that's not who they are that's not who any of us were and so we kind of just petered out

01:00:23.900 this tea party movement if you will from the left will not peter out those people are not going to go

01:00:32.600 away those are the disruptors of our society and i think the schumers and the pelosis are going to be

01:00:40.840 more afraid of them than mitch mcconnell was ever afraid of you because mitch knew you didn't have any

01:00:48.520 teeth schumer knows these people have teeth and they will bite so i'm not sure which way it goes

01:00:58.560 but it's going to be ugly you'll know i think relatively soon i think so too because i mean

01:01:04.140 the impeachment battle is going to be the easiest way to to see this they're not going to do anything

01:01:07.900 until at least the muller report comes out but if it comes out and they try to latch on to some bs

01:01:12.040 thing and force through impeachment you can tell which side is going to be winning

01:01:14.820 because the the the new socialist the alexandria ocasio-cortez group of people coming in are not

01:01:22.700 going to be happy with well we're going to look into this and create a panel to see if if this

01:01:28.140 should be investigated further like they're not going to want that so here's the other news story

01:01:32.480 that we should take something and apply it uh to 2019 the paris riots story the paris riots story

01:01:41.000 really here is the lesson you cannot as politicians or a government or as media ignore people and expect

01:01:50.300 extremism not to rise if you ignore the cries of the people extremists will come and try to claim

01:02:00.540 those people and their discontent and direct that energy toward you however the more you ignore the worse

01:02:10.060 it gets but if you also add to that an accusation that the people are the problem

01:02:19.640 you have revolution and that's what's happening right now with both parties here in the united states

01:02:28.680 and the media it's the people that are the problem that has to be cured because that's what's also

01:02:38.400 happening in europe and they're ahead of us it's a bridge 2019 is a bridge learn from the past apply

01:02:47.780 that knowledge to the now to protect our future

01:02:51.940 you're listening to glenn beck sometimes putting things off you know well is a pretty minor issue

01:03:02.220 going to the gym is a great example cleaning out the gutters sure securing your home your family your

01:03:09.320 valuables really is not something that you can put off i just got a card from i have to find it

01:03:16.680 shoot uh i just got a card from one of the security companies in my neighborhood and they sent out

01:03:22.640 something that said 27.95 it's the cheapest 24 hour uh monitoring available and i'm like well that's just

01:03:32.280 a lie because i know it's not 27 bucks i know that it is 14.99 that's what simply safe charges and

01:04:02.040 discount do it now we've got dozens of shows all over the conservative spectrum

01:04:06.000 this is the glenn beck program looking at the stories from 2018 and then trying to apply the

01:04:18.940 lessons to 2019 i think it's really critical and we could sit here and we could get bogged down

01:04:28.800 on uh for instance the border wall which is really important and funding for the united states government

01:04:36.700 again really important however we know that the you know united states is not going to default

01:04:45.340 on its loans and that's you know the the media always says this can you believe the the republicans

01:04:54.300 won't they just won't give in on this one thing they've got planned parenthood and they just they

01:05:00.320 won't let that go through and we could default on all of our loans we're not going to default on all

01:05:07.000 of our loans we're not the media is playing both sides both sides they couldn't believe but here

01:05:17.600 they can't they have no problem with the democrats holding hostage for one thing not planned

01:05:26.020 parenthood border wall security of course like i was before with you know when it was obamacare or

01:05:32.960 planned parenthood it was how can they not possibly give in on this one little few billion dollars here

01:05:39.140 how can they possibly not they never asked that question of democrats why wouldn't they just give

01:05:43.480 in on a five billion dollar thing for for border security then you get dollars is nothing and they

01:05:48.240 get daca why wouldn't they just give in i mean i'm not comfortable at all switching giving daca up

01:05:53.840 for five billion dollars of border funding i don't think that's a good i don't think that's a good deal

01:05:57.540 in fact i know it's not a good deal because they offered 30 billion dollars for daca a year ago

01:06:01.840 and still then i don't think it was a good idea but they i mean this has gone downhill significantly

01:06:07.680 when it comes to a negotiation standpoint and they now the but the media never puts pressure

01:06:13.620 on the democrats to give up on their one little thing the whole government could reopen right now

01:06:18.200 if they gave five billion dollars for a wall and they get a giant thing from the trump administration

01:06:22.220 and they won't do it but that pressure doesn't go on the democrats it went solely on the backs of

01:06:27.620 republicans the last two government shutdowns always is republicans fault now that the democrats are the

01:06:34.740 ones saying no we're going to keep this we're going to keep this government closed until uh he

01:06:40.920 gives up on this border funding thing well it's still the democrats still the republicans fault

01:06:46.280 republicans fault how could they ask for a stupid little thing i don't think it's going to make a

01:06:50.160 difference it's not going to change sides there's no there's there's a lot of people for instance let

01:06:55.140 me take ken in california ken are you personally affected by the government shutdown absolutely do you care

01:07:04.240 to explain how well absolutely i live in mariposa right on the edge of yosemite national park and

01:07:10.420 when the parks closed down and concessions are closed down tourists don't come to town and those

01:07:14.480 of us in this private sector up here we get we don't get paid back so what do you want the president

01:07:20.900 to do oh it's not what i want the president to do it's what i want chuck and nancy to get off their

01:07:26.440 tails and give them the money for that wall and are you willing to take it in the end and and

01:07:32.660 lose money in the end oh i have to be it's for the nations my grandfather has the medal of honor

01:07:39.600 from world war ii i have to have the same integrity he did it's for our nation's security

01:07:43.460 see i think that this is what the media and the democrats don't understand i thank you ken thank you

01:07:53.100 for your call and thank you for your service to the country i think the american people on the

01:08:00.180 republican side are willing to sit this through and hurt themselves because this is about security

01:08:10.540 it's not about politics it's about security and you also have those people who are not affected by

01:08:17.760 this people think that the number one problem in america is the government they they look at the

01:08:25.100 government as a cause of a lot of their problems so there's there's no there's no love lost here

01:08:32.600 it's true there's a it's a complicated picture though with this policy i mean you're right they

01:08:36.080 don't they think the government's incompetent everyone knows that right i mean everyone's made

01:08:39.700 post office jokes even if you're a liberal you realize this is accurate um however the polling on

01:08:44.820 the border wall is not good even for separate from the shutdown it's 60 37 against building it

01:08:50.280 for at all now this has changed dramatically from just a few years ago in 2010 among democrat voters

01:08:58.120 it was basically a 50 50 issue should we build a border wall now it's 89 to 8 against among

01:09:04.240 democrats because because of trump yeah right because of politics because of politics but that

01:09:08.760 is not even a an issue that is a an issue that's polling well among the american people anyway short of

01:09:15.560 the shutdown if you start getting people and this just gets worse right like because you know there's

01:09:20.380 stuff like flood insurance coming up for a lot of people now should the government be in the flood

01:09:23.780 insurance industry no not at all of course not it's stupid but people uh believe they should have it

01:09:29.280 they are they bought a house in a flood zone with the expectation they could get it and if it's not a

01:09:35.220 if you can't renew it and then you have a flood there's going to be major major issues here and so they

01:09:40.660 they know that the longer this goes on the uglier it gets the more people uh not just the what is it

01:09:47.640 800 000 people not getting paid but also the people like our last caller who's like i you know i depend

01:09:53.380 on a lot of people coming to national park and my you know my business is suffering that suffering gets

01:09:58.180 worse over time and if it's an issue that's not even necessarily polling well it's going to be tough

01:10:03.760 i think the democrats are going to say they're just going to sit back and say go ahead wait wait all you

01:10:08.600 want you already said it's your fault you already said it's the donald trump shutdown and we're going

01:10:12.440 to put the blame on you now whether that works or not i don't know so but here's here's where i am on

01:10:17.220 this stew i am mildly fascinated by how this is going to work out yeah but i don't see us i don't see

01:10:26.100 anybody winning in the end you know i don't see a win for the american people either way on this do you

01:10:33.020 no because even even if you get the border wall funding which would probably be the best outcome

01:10:37.740 right now if you're if you're thinking of border security you're giving up daca almost definitely

01:10:42.800 in that arrangement which is and you're getting five billion and five billion which is going to build

01:10:47.000 i mean it's not it's a it's a step in the right direction but it's not going to build a it's not

01:10:50.640 going to build the wall we were talking we were talking so here's the other story that nobody is

01:10:53.940 paying attention to last week did you see that uh the president was considering signing an executive order

01:11:02.040 banning all technology from the chinese companies on 5g technology yeah i think i saw a blip about that

01:11:11.640 blip about it was not a it was not a story that was widely talked let me tell you this is a five

01:11:16.340 billion dollar call it's going to hurt businesses private businesses by five billion dollars

01:11:23.760 i am not for the government paying people i am not for the government telling us what

01:11:32.000 products we can and cannot use except this time i think the best thing for national security

01:11:41.500 is to write a five billion dollar check to all these mom and pop uh places all around the united states

01:11:48.820 that bought this 5g technology and have already started to put in chinese technology that's the best

01:11:56.960 five billion dollar investment we could possibly make for our own security so wait so the these

01:12:04.160 companies bought the from one of these big chinese companies the technology from 5g or whatever it is

01:12:09.900 yeah and and the worry is that this is going to wind up giving china more control over this coming 5g

01:12:18.840 technology which is obviously 5g technology if china has their instruments in our 5g technology when i say

01:12:27.840 our i mean anywhere in the west you cannot allow china to be in the west at all the 5g technology

01:12:36.500 their repeaters their systems all of their electronics that they're building will report and gather

01:12:44.500 all information and data and send it back to mainland china if they have control of our communications

01:12:53.680 network we are screwed and the president is finally uh doing something i don't mean just him i mean obama

01:13:04.000 bush nobody did anything on this and he finally last week and nobody really reported on it that he said

01:13:12.320 you know i'm considering an executive order and everybody screamed oh that's five billion dollars we've

01:13:17.460 already spent good then the government should refund those people because the government is saying now

01:18:29.380 happening with jeffy and and uh what to do and kind of ended the conversation uh with stew saying

01:18:36.940 we're getting too old to do this to our bodies anymore it really is true isn't it yeah uh you uh

01:18:43.780 because it's something there's something about having you know my dad died of a heart attack

01:18:47.500 there's a there's you know people around you do it and for some reason it seems like oh that's

01:18:52.340 it's distant people right like yeah it's distant or something different like we're like jeffy's like

01:18:56.820 now jeffy's probably the oldest person i've ever met in my life uh but still as a i mean he's a peer

01:19:02.460 right he's like someone we have worked with for a million years he's been with us this entire time

01:19:07.520 and you know he's our friend and as much as i hate admitting things like that and you know to see

01:19:12.720 it happen to him is this is pretty scary did you get beat up uh to tanya maybe give you a little

01:19:17.720 refocusing of life no she actually didn't really no because i had already been there on you know

01:19:24.760 uh i'm gonna eat ice cream every night yeah uh during the holidays but uh i i'm i've got to

01:19:31.780 i've got to lose 50 pounds got to lose 50 pounds 50 pounds 50 pounds the big goal is that the actual

01:19:38.460 goal that is the actual goal hmm i mean how do we exploit this for the air i mean can we have a

01:19:43.920 an ongoing weight measurement that's just posted on the website all the time that doesn't make me

01:19:48.700 happy i that's why i'm suggesting it yeah of course uh this is why this is the only way you can

01:19:53.580 get these things can happen is if you get shamed into them i know you know i know the only way i'll

01:19:58.260 eat a leaf a leaf of lettuce i know but i i i i have to do it so i'm i haven't started yet

01:20:05.880 um but i'm i'm gonna start in the next few days and i wanted to know if you wanted to join me on

01:20:10.440 some sort of a challenge if the audience wants to join oh i love that you know i'd like to lose 50

01:20:16.640 pounds in two weeks no i'm kidding you're gonna be cutting body parts off right i'm fine with that

01:20:22.480 i'm fine with it yeah but doctor my weight went down there you go yeah i'm only four feet tall now

01:20:28.860 and i don't have i don't have many of my organs but i feel fine or i did about 20 minutes after surgery

01:20:35.580 now not so great well i i did wind up giving jeffy a christmas present a nicely wrapped uh

01:20:42.440 present that he opened um and inside was a giant bag of lettuce uh but and then he did unfortunately

01:20:48.500 notice it was romaine that had been recalled uh so yeah well oh well i mean it's worth a shot

01:20:54.480 you know we can't care about everything jeffy by the way jeffy is fine and on the mend

01:21:00.580 the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment this is the glenbeck program in 1970 simon and

01:21:12.620 garfunkel released a song bridge over troubled water it's a great song title legendary song

01:21:18.640 but maybe more importantly it is a fitting label for this year a bridge over troubled water

01:21:25.960 2019 is i believe the bridge year fundamental global transformation is on the other side of the

01:21:35.440 bridge and on this on this path we just walked is the post cold war world and it all began to change

01:21:44.880 in 2008 a year that saw both a russian invasion of a potential nato country and the collapse of

01:21:53.080 lehman brothers in fact they happened within a few weeks of one another in a span of just a few weeks

01:22:00.300 it was not a coincidence we've been on this path for quite some while we are now entering the bridge

01:22:10.660 over troubled water i'll explain in 60 seconds

01:24:14.420 color me bad cnc music factory great factory and paula abdul 1991 paula

01:24:24.400 abdul was still around jeez cnc music factory nothing i mean nothing there was only what they

01:24:31.900 had two or three hits i don't even remember i i remember things that make you go hmm yeah no i i

01:24:39.180 tried to block out gonna make you sweat i believe was one of the others yeah which is uh easier gets

01:24:44.640 easier as you get older so that was that was the beginning of the journey that we are on now

01:24:49.780 that was the soundtrack of our life because on the other side of the globe the soviet union was

01:24:55.720 disintegrating at the time those were the hits while everything else was falling apart is it possible

01:25:01.340 they knew those were the hits that just gave up on their country they're like screw it no they were

01:25:05.360 joining the west they were like the wall was coming down they're like no wait maybe we should put the

01:25:09.680 wall back up what would the world look like in 1991 many in the west just saw this is great capitalism has

01:25:21.000 won against communism and everybody's going to be capitalist and we're going to be things are

01:25:26.080 going to be great in russia uh no no but we had spent decades preparing for something that now didn't

01:25:37.540 exist cold war nuclear war soviet union and western europe united to guarantee quote peace and prosperity

01:25:50.620 right and you remember late i think it was was it putin that wanted to come into nato i know russia

01:25:59.720 wanted to come in and become a nato power china and the united states had come together

01:26:06.340 to eradicate this communist menace of the soviet union and everyone had direction

01:26:15.480 but now that soviet union was gone what was everybody coming to the dinner table for

01:26:22.400 well we went on pretending for over two decades and the signs of that change hit us

01:26:32.260 in 2008 that the world was different 2001 and then again 2008 we now find ourselves on a bridge

01:26:42.460 to a world that will be as different as the world was between 1914 and 1946 but it's going to be the

01:26:55.280 difference between the difference between the world of 19 or sorry 2018 and 2025 we are now at that bridge

01:27:06.240 we stand looking at a new direction but no politician and no media source is telling you there is a horizon

01:27:17.220 forward they're trying to get you to continue to look backward they're trying to get you to look

01:27:25.160 at what what is america today what is the world today this is all going to unravel whether you like it or not

01:27:34.700 it's just not going to be the same nato nato and europe will begin to dissolve and new alliances will emerge

01:27:47.720 i think we're going to talk about a little of this tonight is tonight is tonight what are the two topics on

01:27:56.500 tonight's show five o'clock

01:27:57.540 civility and unrest and then the other one is i think it's the complete discography of cnc music factory

01:28:07.380 will be the other time really yeah well we don't have a lot of time so it'll be perfect

01:28:10.840 uh for that uh politics of meaning so we are going to be talking about this um i'm i'm laying out the

01:28:18.480 seven categories that i'm going to focus on in the next 12 to 18 months because i believe that we have

01:28:27.160 to stop playing the stupid political games and getting wrapped up in the media um and start looking

01:28:35.620 ahead across this bridge the way things used to work will seem like a distant memory and it will

01:28:45.020 all begin to become clear this year i think this this time next year we will be able to have a

01:28:54.220 conversation in fact we should play this break next year at this time and see if you don't say

01:29:03.000 i do see things completely differently we are on a bridge and troubled waters beneath us and they are

01:29:12.120 rising the waters of chaos are going to put us into uncharted territory in 2008 the united states was the

01:29:22.160 catalyst and uh i don't know what the catalyst is going to be this time but recession is coming

01:29:31.920 since 1933 our economic cycle has a recession on average every four years it has now been over eight

01:29:40.720 years since the last recession hit it is going to happen and it has nothing to do with politics

01:29:48.200 an economic uppercut is coming and it's coming at a time when global debt is at record numbers

01:29:57.080 consider this consumer confidence began to decline back in november oil prices are now bottoming out

01:30:05.260 what what do oil prices bottom out usually tell you that the world is on a slowdown credit is beginning

01:30:12.720 to crunch asset prices are beginning to fall and for the first time in a decade interest rates are

01:30:20.000 rising all of that adds up to a recession and very soon now when we stop buying the entire world takes

01:30:30.160 a hit it's the same thing that happened in 2008 except we caught a cold but the rest of the world caught

01:30:37.440 pneumonia the rest of the world did not recover if you lost money in 2008 you not only recovered that money

01:30:46.160 if you left it in the stock market you not only recovered that money but if you left it in the whole time

01:30:51.600 you've now gained 400 percent more than you had in 2008 before the crash that's incredible

01:31:02.320 in 2008 we took a 50 percent bath the rest of the world and china took a 70 percent bath

01:31:12.640 like i said you have 400 percent more money in your 401k if you had money in a 401k in 2008

01:31:20.860 in china they've only made up 20 percent of the 70 that they've lost so the rest of the world had

01:31:30.060 pneumonia and it has never left the hospital and what's happening already is is beginning to

01:31:39.280 outline some things that the world has not seen for maybe 100 years the uk is exiting the european union

01:31:49.800 italy and greece are on the verge of default the french yellow vest protests are happening they resumed

01:31:58.300 again just this last weekend uh things are starting to add up russia cannot pay their bills with

01:32:09.080 oil at 50 a barrel they needed i think to be about 80 a barrel it's never going back to 80 a barrel

01:32:17.980 saudi arabia i think needs 90 a barrel just to pay their bills you remember when we talked about the

01:32:25.440 saudi prince and how the saudi prince was uh was actually uh rounding up all of the big rich

01:32:32.760 princes from saudi arabia taking airplanes yeah right that's because they have no more money

01:32:39.320 they are blowing through all of the saudi money that they are collecting it from the family members

01:32:46.400 they are blowing through all of this money that is major destabilization china is dealing with a

01:32:54.120 greater than anticipated gdp slowdown and a trade war and meanwhile the war drums are beating with new

01:33:02.100 military alliances forming and old ones dying

01:33:07.240 i spent a day just looking at the global map and looking at alliances and an axis and allied powers

01:33:21.680 and we're going to talk about this a bit tonight it's not going to be the way that we think

01:33:29.840 you have to stop thinking like the cold war and world war ii those days are behind us the world

01:33:39.400 is changing and this is the year that i think we will all look back at and say wow that was the year

01:33:48.900 that we stood on the bridge between those two worlds and we never saw it coming unless you're with us

01:33:57.180 because you will see it coming we begin tonight at five o'clock only on the blaze tv

01:34:03.060 never more than 60 seconds away from more of the show um i want to talk to you a little bit about

01:34:09.840 gold line the stock market is in a rocky ride right now i didn't want to tell you i had done anything

01:34:16.080 until i had actually done it um but i took uh 70 i took 75 cents of every dollar i had in the stock

01:34:24.340 market out over the holiday uh and um i just recommend that you look for something more stable

01:34:31.500 uh than the stock market i think things are uh trouble and uh you can look at treasuries which

01:34:40.300 short term uh you can look at gold you can look at silver you can look at land uh but now is the time

01:34:49.300 please to protect yourself we are back into that area era that we were in 2007 2008 and in times of

01:34:58.020 political and economic uncertainty americans have consistently turned to the recognized safe haven

01:35:03.600 asset which stands the test of time over and over again and that is physical gold it's a hedge against

01:35:10.340 an unchecked government it plays a crucial role in diversifying a portfolio um it is something that

01:35:17.800 china is gobbling up by the ton russia is gobbling up by the ton anybody who is smart is looking at gold

01:35:26.380 right now because when the world goes insane that is where people go for shelter gold line go to gold

01:35:34.420 line now goldline.com or call 866 gold line 1-866 gold line or goldline.com break for 10 second station id

01:35:43.260 this is the glenbeck program welcome to it um

01:36:03.840 am i too pessimistic i mean generally of course yes um i i don't know i mean it does feel like we're

01:36:14.560 on the verge of uh something particularly with the financial world that is uh it's not so you are

01:36:19.500 feeling it too it's not just me i mean they just did polling on this and they think it was something

01:36:23.320 like 65 percent of americans believe we're going to see in a recession in the next year

01:36:27.420 it's not a recession right i mean but they're not gonna it's a different thing you're always

01:36:32.300 talking about right like this is a more dramatic situation but whether it is or not it's something

01:36:36.580 it's certainly a good time to relook at how you know where your finances are and and where what

01:36:42.280 what you have them in right where you've done anything i have i've done some yeah i've really

01:36:46.920 kind of aligned my uh my 401k 401k and those sorts of things you know i i don't you know it's it's

01:36:55.220 difficult you know because if you're close to needing your money right they always say you

01:36:58.220 shouldn't really be highly you know highly vulnerable to those risks anyway um i'm not

01:37:03.420 necessarily that young i mean i should you know or old at this point i've got still got a few years

01:37:07.260 right before i have to actually access it hopefully um so you know i mean i don't want to necessarily

01:37:12.220 take it all out but there's a situation where you know if what you're talking about comes to pass

01:37:17.420 it's not going to matter i think there's i think there's there is a good chance that we are sitting

01:37:23.180 now um financially uh on the doorstep of a 1929 to 1933 event yeah and that doesn't come back

01:37:33.300 for 1929 didn't come back until 1946 really in the west but you have to remember you know you ever

01:37:43.500 see all those uh comedies like benny hill they always they always drove that three-wheeled blue car

01:37:49.180 and it always kind of tipped over do you ever see that i don't remember i just remember benny hill

01:37:53.920 running around and getting chased by like women in underwear uh at high speeds with a song playing

01:37:59.400 in the background right but if you remember in comedies in in great britain they also always had

01:38:05.000 that three-wheeled car well that three-wheeled car was because they couldn't afford anything well no

01:38:10.680 it's because of government standards but they also couldn't afford gasoline they couldn't afford cars

01:38:16.700 everyone in europe was rebuilding so they didn't really get to experience any kind of boom until

01:38:25.320 maybe the 60s and 70s the the 40s 50s was all about rebuilding and so they didn't have a lot of money

01:38:34.920 it's why it's why england went socialist with socialized medicine they had no money left and all

01:38:43.060 of europe was like that what better time to launch a new program that's incredibly expensive than when

01:38:48.420 you have no money uh that's a great idea that's what happens that's what happens people get desperate

01:38:53.740 and they start begging for government to help them and i think that is going to happen um in the next

01:38:59.700 two to three years it could happen as early as this year but i think the um the socialist movement

01:39:06.740 is going to become uh acceptable to many in the conservative movement and i know that is crazy

01:39:15.620 to say but you are going to see uh talk about bigger and bigger safety nets and bigger and bigger

01:39:24.320 government programs um on the right you're going to begin to see it we've seen some of that recently

01:39:31.280 i mean tucker carlson did a big monologue about how basically conservative principles of the past don't

01:39:35.740 work anymore is this wait this is over the last couple weeks i haven't seen how we just don't

01:39:40.880 recognize it and all the all the conservative elites you know believe in markets and we need to

01:39:46.440 stop doing that because we have to have a government that's going to get get involved in culture and it

01:39:52.820 was all sorts of stuff like i wow at one point he said uh the democrat party is currently functionally

01:39:59.520 libertarian which it was like honestly i mean again tucker carlson's a smart guy but that is one

01:40:05.740 of the strangest observations on any topic i've ever heard in my entire life they're in the middle of

01:40:10.480 he's elected like 60 socialists functionally libertarian i i don't know where this stuff is

01:40:16.380 coming from and it's to me uh scary because if people on the right start talking like that

01:40:21.120 if things go badly man i was not know i didn't know that tucker carlson was

01:40:25.780 doing that i meant in the coming year oh okay well apparently it's already happening well when

01:40:31.620 it gets ugly that's when it gets ugly really gets going oh it is it's worth reading ben shapiro wrote

01:40:36.340 right up about that monologue is is worth your time um because if that comes where they're right

01:40:42.060 where there's no longer an opposition to growing government and growing government intervention

01:40:46.340 that's when you get europe right because there's no side that is arguing for small government it's big

01:40:50.680 government control on the right or big government control on the left and that's a scary place to be

01:40:54.840 um i mean you mentioned that stat on china which you kind of brushed over a little bit like that's

01:40:59.840 one of the most shocking things i had no idea that occurred i mean think about this if you had a

01:41:04.360 hundred dollars in the u.s stock market the we had the crash it went down to 50 and now it's 200

01:41:08.760 so if you held on you've made a lot more money in china it was if you had a hundred dollars invested

01:41:14.600 it went down to 30 and it's quote unquote recovered to 36 you've lost all that money you've lost a lot

01:41:22.580 there's been there's been no recovery and now and now there's talk about real problems i mean think

01:41:29.840 that you went from 30 to 36 and everybody's been trying to convince you that no no things are getting

01:41:35.640 better things are getting better you know we've we've we've went from 100 to 50 to 200 yeah they went

01:41:45.880 from 100 to 30 to 36 and now they're talking about real trouble imagine the mindset now one other

01:41:55.800 thing on china do you know how they do you know all those ghost cities that are sitting empty

01:42:03.840 it's a fascinating part of china they build these cities there's no one huge buildings skyscrapers

01:42:09.560 malls everything and no one goes to them because there's no one there who owns them

01:42:14.160 who owns the buildings yeah who owns those apartments well the people right the people

01:42:21.560 own them oh not in the way you think you think it's the government that owns them wait until i tell you

01:42:28.840 the economic trick that the chinese have played on their people revolution

01:42:36.360 you're listening to glenn beck so is this the year that bitcoin is coming back uh bitcoin and crypto is

01:42:47.380 not where we thought it would be uh right now all the signs do point for a bull year for cryptos

01:42:53.860 i believe cryptocurrency and blockchain technology are going to play a significant role in the future

01:42:59.760 of the world there's a lot of signs that point to track a trackable digital form of money as a

01:43:07.860 replacement to a fiat currency i mean gee the bible said this would happen now this is important because

01:43:16.420 right now you have a chance to invest in this technology before it all happens but i urge you to do your

01:43:22.460 own homework because uh this is very volatile i think everybody should have a hundred bucks into

01:43:29.500 bitcoin or cryptocurrency please take the course on it smartcryptocourse.com go to smartcryptocourse.com

01:43:46.960 that you know use the promo code BECK to get your discount go there now

01:43:51.020 welcome to the program the glenbeck program uh back from vacation and uh tonight is a show on tv you

01:44:03.780 don't want to miss uh at 5 p.m in fact all week we're laying out the seven uh topics or categories

01:44:11.840 that i think we need to concentrate on in the next 12 to 18 months and we're going to concentrate on them

01:44:18.240 i'm i'm just not going to i'm not i just can't fall into the trap of caring about uh all of the back

01:44:26.700 and forth uh political games because we are on a bridge to a world that is going to fundamentally

01:44:34.900 transform uh here in the next two to six years i believe by 2025 you will not recognize the border

01:44:45.380 maps anymore um things are going to change globally and also internally and things quite honestly like

01:44:54.540 the uh um you know donald trump saying that he's thinking about declaring a national emergency

01:45:01.080 to be able to build this border wall that's no that's not what we use national emergency for

01:45:09.180 that is a dangerous dangerous trend um and we just don't we just we just can't do that um however

01:45:17.980 we might it's kind of a might i mean we've seen this many times with presidents trying this i mean

01:45:23.740 daca is essentially a result of obama saying well we we wanted to do this through the courts or we're

01:45:29.400 going to do this through law we couldn't get it done so we're going to do it ourselves the same thing

01:45:33.200 with the bump stock ban right oh we want to get this done we're going to do it through the law we

01:45:36.480 couldn't do it so you know they just did it on their own over over vacation uh or late december

01:45:41.380 um this one's you know again like i i agree with the priority that the border wall is important

01:45:46.360 again it's just we should remember this is just a piece of this puzzle 40 of people who are here

01:45:51.600 illegally are here on overstate visas the wall does nothing to stop them i mean even if the wall was

01:45:56.780 completely built it would help but it would not be it's not it's not a solution to this issue overall

01:46:02.000 uh it would be great if it was there because it would help on illegal border crossings but it's

01:46:06.360 just a piece of the puzzle and because it's become this big political issue i think a lot of people

01:46:11.860 uh who watch this stuff think either it's the solution and we need to get it done because it's

01:46:17.240 a national emergency or on the other side uh they think it's it's the it's the worst thing in the

01:46:21.440 world when democrats used to agree with it i mean not that not that long ago in the 2010s they agreed

01:46:26.220 with it here's the here's the problem uh when your government is so disconnected from the people

01:46:34.560 um bad things happen and when the government lies to get things done i want to talk to you about the

01:46:43.420 ghost cities in china if you don't know what ghost cities are in china you need to look them up just

01:46:50.220 google them pure entertainment reasons you should watch youtube videos you will be you'll be in a

01:46:55.780 wormhole all day long all day long fascinating never seen anything like it whole entire cities

01:47:02.380 completely empty of people completely built one of the largest malls in the world is a mall built in

01:47:09.560 one of these ghost cities which has like one store in it and it's one of the largest malls in the world

01:47:13.880 everything else is completely empty because there's no people there to buy anything they just build these

01:47:18.960 cities with no people and they've been doing it for a long time it's helped prop up their economy

01:47:24.060 uh and it is uh and what they've done to try to finance it is is amazing so nobody ever talked

01:47:33.840 about how did they finance this how what are they doing we've talked about just how it's bogus

01:47:40.680 how it's just they are just stimulating the economy uh by dumping all of this money to pay workers to build

01:47:48.960 these cities because they needed i think it was eight percent growth if they didn't if they have

01:47:54.200 anything less than eight percent growth they're in trouble with their own people well they don't have

01:47:59.320 eight percent growth now i think they have five percent and that's what they say it is if they're saying

01:48:05.340 it's five percent growth there's no way it's five percent growth um so they built these cities

01:48:11.920 and here's what they've done they've gone to the chinese people most of them are working in these

01:48:20.060 factories and have no con don't even have their own home okay and they've shown them pictures of this

01:48:28.600 utopian city that they've never been to and they've said you can own one of these places you can own

01:48:37.020 you're gonna you're gonna retire you're gonna own one of these uh luxury apartments it's a gleaming city

01:48:44.040 and it's waiting for you all you have to do is just give us x percent of your salary and we'll just

01:48:54.160 withhold it and we'll put it toward your apartment your apartment in the sky well nobody has the money

01:49:04.100 for this and by the time you would pay off that apartment in 20 years nobody's there

01:49:11.460 what is that apartment going to be like in 20 years

01:49:15.760 stew and i've been talking about this for the last couple of weeks and there is another government

01:49:22.760 that did something very very similar in a court case that was settled in the 1960s

01:49:29.040 i mean nazi germany did this with volkswagen and they promised the people's car and they said hey

01:49:36.940 here's uh all you have to do is pay off these your coupons your stamps and if you paid off enough of

01:49:42.980 your monthly payments you would get the car so you didn't get the car up front of course but they gave

01:49:48.060 you this nice stamp booklet and you could pay them off as you went and what was really happening is

01:49:53.060 they weren't planning on building the cars they were taking that money it was funding their war effort

01:49:56.920 so they were essentially getting lots of payments from their own people for something that seemed too

01:50:01.280 good to be true it was like a card of incredible price this amazing german car and they paid all of

01:50:07.340 their money to the government while they were secretly building their own war machine of course the people

01:50:12.120 didn't get the cars they did the same thing with vacation uh yeah it was it was this big beautiful it

01:50:18.160 was like a ghost city it was this big resort i can't remember where it was it was all built yeah

01:50:23.380 and you could get into your volkswagen and you could drive to the sea and you're going to be able to

01:50:29.300 have a guaranteed volkswagen vacation uh and that never happened that place was built it's just now an

01:50:37.460 empty ghost town but that place was built and it wasn't until the 1960s when the german people could

01:50:44.340 finally sue i think they sued volkswagen and said we didn't get our car we never got our car and they got

01:50:53.100 their money back at least part of their money back but that's a i mean and that is you know

01:50:58.600 certainly don't put anything past the chinese government or what they're doing with the money

01:51:02.960 but right now we kind of believe that they're just propping up the economy with it um and they're

01:51:08.440 trying to develop things like ai and and all of the other things that they believe are the next

01:51:13.120 generation of warfare that we don't seem to be all that concerned about that that's concerning

01:51:17.820 i'm concerned about it um i know that's one of the things you're going to be talking about this

01:51:21.720 week on the tv show and looking that sort of forward-looking uh posture rather than where

01:51:27.780 what we're doing now i mean you know what we're doing now is so irrelevant it really is so irrelevant

01:51:34.840 because i think some like it's tough because these topics are important let's say for politics for

01:51:39.440 example like the border security is legitimately important it's not something we should just ignore

01:51:43.660 big time but i feel like there's this thing that we do in like in the media now which is

01:51:48.040 we pick a topic to just all do drugs on at the same time like we all like we could talk about

01:51:53.720 things rationally but then when it comes to a hot but like the border wall uh we'll all do that

01:51:58.320 conversation on heroin and it's it's so weird i mean you know the easiest example of this i mentioned

01:52:03.540 it earlier in the show the democrats in 2010 were the border wall building a border wall was a 50 50 issue

01:52:10.020 among democrats now it's 89 to 8 the border the border problem didn't change we didn't all of a sudden

01:52:17.660 not have an illegal immigration problem it was because their political opponent and the media

01:52:22.540 decided that the people now talking about the border wall are evil and they're the republicans and

01:52:28.160 they're bad people so the democrats went from 50 50 to 89 to 8 in a period of seven years where there

01:52:36.340 was a lot of illegal immigration that happened and we had lots of crime committed by illegal immigrants

01:52:40.460 and all the same problems that existed before exist today and now they're opposed to it we have become

01:52:47.340 an we have become a a society of products that's it we're just pulling products off the shelf and just

01:53:00.220 like every advertising campaign that product says something about you that label says something about

01:53:08.080 you yeah yeah and that's all this is this is nothing more than an advertising campaign and we are really

01:53:16.480 in the matrix and if you want to get out of the matrix you have to start looking at reality and reality

01:53:25.700 is is nothing i'm telling you when you understand the 5g china 2025 policy when you just understand that

01:53:35.420 it's like the matrix starts to blink and you're like wait a minute wait a minute what am i seeing

01:53:40.620 you begin to understand what really is going on and it's it's crystal clear and you can see it all around

01:53:52.300 the globe and no one in politics and certainly no one in media because media they are just they're not

01:53:59.140 intellectually curious anymore they really are not they're into positioning they're into the product

01:54:06.200 that they are selling they are not intellectually curious and they are also many of them not intellectually

01:54:13.800 honest enough or brave enough to say okay wait a minute there's this isn't there's something not right

01:54:21.580 here they're not willing to say those things you are you're an audience that that is willing to say

01:54:28.860 those things you are intellectually curious you just have to have it backed up with facts and i intend to feed

01:54:36.660 you those facts facts and i don't intend for you to take those and ever quote me i expect you to take those facts

01:54:45.380 and look them up for yourself and see if the conclusions that i am drawing are right or wrong

01:54:51.800 but i can guarantee you that all of the facts that we will give you will be correct whether the conclusion

01:55:00.760 is correct we wait to see but we have a pretty decent track record on conclusions being correct

01:55:07.760 on big things 1999 osama bin laden will bomb there will be blood bodies and buildings on the streets of new york city

01:55:18.020 within the next 10 years and osama bin laden's name will be on it that was 1999

01:55:24.600 in 2006 or sorry 2006 and 7 was there's going to be a major banking collapse none of this will stand

01:55:39.820 i remember you doing an interview with a guy dow 36 000 remember that and you were like i don't think

01:55:44.840 it's going to 36 000 i might be going the other way yeah and you had that debate on the air yeah i mean

01:55:48.720 that's that was back on cnn headline news those days and and still i mean that was that we were

01:55:55.020 very early on that one obviously we have been right on many many many things for a very long time i am

01:56:01.320 urging you to pay attention right now because i believe we are right again on what is coming

01:56:09.800 and this is the year to prepare it's going to start happening this year but this is the year to get your

01:56:17.720 ducks in a row and it's going to come we perhaps have more time than we think less time than we wish

01:56:28.000 but if you blow it just playing political games we're all going to be in trouble

01:56:34.960 let me tell you a little bit about simply safe uh simply safe is a way for you to protect your home

01:56:45.140 uh and make sure that you know nobody's going to get into your house can you can you just take

01:56:49.980 this for a second i want to get something here and show you something uh sure simply safe of course

01:56:54.080 you may know has extended their holiday special uh savings they're going on right now going to save

01:56:58.640 you hundreds of dollars uh so i mean look you need you need to get you need to be protected for these

01:57:03.200 things they have uh no middleman they don't have to schedule the six hour installation window

01:57:07.340 that whole disaster of getting an uh one of these systems installed simply safe took care of that

01:57:12.660 which is the main selling point that we try to tell you all the time the technology is great and

01:57:16.360 it's easy i have to i have to bring it in tomorrow i thought i had it in my bag i must have left it at

01:57:21.180 home it is something from one of these uh you know uh companies that provide security you know brinks or

01:57:28.180 whatever it is they're like the lowest uh the lowest price available for 24 7 security it's 27 and

01:57:36.320 like 45 cents and i'm like no that's not the lowest one possible not even close it's double the

01:57:42.320 lowest one possible yeah this is 1499 1499 stop overpaying stop with putting having somebody come

01:57:51.640 in and put these wires in the wall for technology that is ancient and going to be changed and locks

01:57:57.940 you in to them raising the price of that lowest price ever no contracts no strings no wires it's

01:58:06.660 simplysafe.com slash beck simply i'm sorry it's simplysafebeck.com go there simplysafebeck.com

01:58:16.380 so i guess the big christmas present uh for me this year was a kindle oasis

01:58:26.480 uh oh yeah those amazon is that the new version of that yeah yeah and really really small and

01:58:36.000 because i read i hate it i hate reading digitally because you don't remember things the same way

01:58:42.500 you can never find them again um and so i try to i try to read something and then i'll buy

01:58:50.080 the hardcover if it's important but i read so much and um and i've been reading on my ipad or on my phone

01:58:58.160 which i hate because you get distracted easily so kindle does nothing else at least that i know of

01:59:05.240 uh does nothing else um except the books yeah because i have the kindle app on my phone

01:59:11.460 oh and on my ipad and i can read there that's what i do too but you think it's worth getting the

01:59:15.700 the actual for me it was because i i want to get away from i want to get away from the ipad and all

01:59:21.400 of the other yeah stuff i've been you mentioned new year's resolutions i've been thinking about that

01:59:26.660 one a lot i'm like trying to use that use it less i just i want to get out of it i feel like at

01:59:31.060 the end of the day it's just it's just empty calories it is you know it is i don't feel like

01:59:35.680 i'm better off because of it i don't feel like i've spent my time well no and then when you start

01:59:39.460 you know i've installed one of those programs that tells you how long you're on no don't how

01:59:43.940 many times you pick it up oh my gosh and it's just like what am i doing with my life i feel

01:59:48.080 like if i could eliminate that i would have like real opportunities to do things that i i find to

01:59:52.400 be important can never get to i mean that seems like it would be beneficial to be able to cut

01:59:58.280 that down even if it's in half you know from what you from what you're doing now obviously

02:00:02.220 there's things at work and there's gps and there's lots of things that it's really valuable

02:00:06.540 for it's obviously great in a lot of ways but there's so much just time wasting and nothingness

02:00:10.340 on it maybe the kindle is a good idea because at least you're reading long form stuff that helps

02:00:14.760 you understand things deep in a deeper way yeah rafe rafe got one uh he got a regular kindle

02:00:20.960 for christmas he hated it he hates it he he reads so much like i do but he got a book

02:00:29.180 also for christmas and it was like 800 and some pages it was finished in four days and that's why

02:00:35.920 i wanted him to have the kindle so he could have the you know library with him all the time but he

02:00:41.760 hates it like me it's better to read on paper it's just a different experience but i personally like

02:00:49.600 the kindle oasis you're listening to glenn beck
