00:00:46.680 Last night, I was sitting in what's called the gallery. That's where the average person,

00:01:04.920 if you will, sits up above the floor of the house. I was at the 50-yard line facing the

00:01:13.700 president and Pence, but it gave me a different view that I've never seen before. It gave me a

00:01:20.780 view of the backs of all of the people in the house, so I could see who was taking selfies. I

00:01:28.800 could see who was on Facebook or looking, you know, at Instagram. And I have a very, very

00:01:38.980 different perspective today on the State of the Union. We begin there in one minute.

00:01:47.340 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:50.280 All right, we are going to get right to the program here in just a second. First,

00:01:55.080 we need to tell you a little bit about LifeLock. LifeLock is the company that is going to help you

00:02:00.520 make sure that your identity is not thieved. Is that right, Stu? Thieved?

00:02:07.160 Oh, that's totally a language. I'm not sure which one.

00:02:10.700 Yeah.

00:02:11.840 But yeah, you got to make sure that that happens.

00:02:13.320 It's not stolen. Yes. All right. Thank you.

00:02:15.760 That's pretty impressive. Yeah. That's kind of an important thing, I would say, these days,

00:02:18.740 considering every single day we could do another hour of the show based on new data breaches,

00:02:24.560 people's identity being stolen, people's money being stolen. I mean, the hacking is constant.

00:02:30.200 I mean, we did a story, what was it, a month or two ago, where they were now advertising jobs

00:02:35.540 for new hackers to steal identities at over $700,000 a year.

00:02:40.800 Yeah. $700,000 a year just to hack. And they're advertising on the dark web. Somebody's identity

00:02:47.380 is stolen every two seconds, and you're most likely going to miss identity threats, especially

00:02:53.220 if you're just monitoring your credit. LifeLock, they're the best in the business at this.

00:02:57.540 You need this. It's LifeLock.com. Use the promo code BECK.

00:03:01.680 Yep. No one can prevent all identity theft, of course, or monitor all transactions at all

00:03:15.880 So, uh, there were some really incredible moments in the speech last night. Uh, and I don't know

00:03:33.820 what the rest of the media is saying, nor do I care. I'm in, uh, I'm in Washington DC at our, uh,

00:03:40.880 blaze, uh, Washington bureau. And, uh, I had the opportunity to sit in the chamber, uh, last night

00:03:49.660 and it was a bizarre experience. And if we have time, I'll tell you, uh, the things that I saw

00:03:56.520 last night, all the way from, do you know what is facing the speaker? Do you know what if the,

00:04:02.620 when the speaker or the president is standing there, what's on the wall above the doors?

00:04:10.880 Would you be surprised if I told you, um, a giant medallion, a, uh, uh, a, a plaster cast,

00:04:19.500 if you will, of Moses. They have all the great lawmakers and behind the president was Madison

00:04:27.960 and Jefferson. But when you're standing there and you're looking up, you're looking at Moses.

00:04:33.060 So I've, I've got some interesting things to tell you and I have, uh, some fascinating things to tell

00:04:41.940 you about how radical the left really is. It is worse than I thought it was, uh, just standing in

00:04:51.720 the, in the chamber. Uh, and so we'll get to that. Also the things that the president did say last

00:04:58.060 night, um, you know, I know the press is probably going to say it was a very divisive, you know,

00:05:02.620 when Bill Clinton stood up and he lost the chamber, uh, you know, he was very conciliatory. He was like,

00:05:08.780 Hey boy, we, uh, there are big governments apparently over. And then he worked together

00:05:13.680 with everybody. Yeah. Yeah. Well, and then George Bush came in, you know, and he said,

00:05:19.660 I've got a strategy for this war and I know nobody really wants to support it, but we're going to do a

00:05:24.660 surge and, and just help. So he doubled down at evil guy. Uh, and then Obama came in and when he

00:05:32.860 lost his midterms, what did he do? He thumbed his nose at the tea party. He thumbed his nose at

00:05:40.380 anybody who was trying to derail. I thought the president did a little of both. I thought the

00:05:48.060 president and, and it was amazing. I don't know if you could hear it on television, but they hissed him

00:05:54.460 several times. Could you hear that Stu? Uh, no, I didn't, I couldn't really take the, I didn't hear

00:06:00.020 the hissing. No. Oh my gosh. They hissed at him several times. Uh, they groaned several times.

00:06:08.000 Sometimes like when he said, uh, you know, uh, I think we'd be at war right now, but he said,

00:06:15.040 in my opinion, I think we'd be at war right now with North Korea. Um, you know, sometimes there were

00:06:21.820 some chuckles and things like that. Uh, but I thought the president didn't take himself so

00:06:27.200 seriously, at least in the room. I don't know how it translated, but in the room he was, I thought,

00:06:36.060 um, conciliatory. I think he tried to come in and say, look, these are the things we have to work on

00:06:44.420 these things and we have to work together. And I think he gave the Democrats. I was, I was sitting

00:06:51.960 because you're sitting with next to strangers and you don't know who's who you don't know, uh, you

00:06:56.480 know what anybody's political bent is. So you really don't talk about politics when you're up in the

00:07:01.660 gallery because you're sitting next to strangers and you don't want to have a fist fight. Um, and so

00:07:06.820 we were just kind of sitting up there and a few of us, and I didn't know anybody. Uh, and I was just

00:07:12.300 talking to people. I don't know which way they were going, et cetera, et cetera. And I made the

00:07:16.720 comment. I said, you know, if, if the public and, uh, and the, um, uh, the organizations outside

00:07:27.080 would have given the president a different ushering in, do you think it would have been different?

00:07:35.940 And everybody said, yes, would have been different, uh, would have been, uh, he would have worked

00:07:45.800 together. And I think that's true. Uh, and if you look at what he was talking about last night,

00:07:52.480 there are things that they can work together on, but when you're in the room, you can see why the

00:08:01.000 president gets so, uh, upset because I've never seen this. And I don't know if anybody was covering

00:08:07.940 this, but I saw a few disturbing things. First of all, I've got to get the picture of the row that,

00:08:13.660 um, uh, that Ocasio-Cortez was sitting in. Um, she was sitting there with six or eight women and then 1.00

00:08:23.140 the, the women behind her as well. I want to know who those people were. She was sitting in the center 1.00

00:08:29.940 and she was sitting at the table. She is running the, at least the freshmen. But I will tell you,

00:08:38.460 I snuck into the party with, um, uh, Nancy Pelosi in her office. Uh, you know, uh, it was with Thomas

00:08:47.240 Massey and he said, they'll just think I'm a freshman Senator. They won't know who I am or a

00:08:51.040 freshman congressman. They won't know who I am. Uh, and I'm like, I don't think they're going to know

00:08:55.560 who I am. Uh, and walked in and we were just trying to get to the balcony of the speaker's,

00:09:01.460 uh, place. That thing is bigger than, uh, that, that Nancy Pelosi's office is bigger than

00:09:10.540 many houses in America. And it was a party scene. It was actually grotesque. It was a party scene

00:09:19.080 that was, uh, happening in there. And Ocasio-Cortez was right at her side. And I think Nancy Pelosi

00:09:26.500 is keeping her close because she knows how dangerous she is, but I will tell you, they've

00:09:32.520 empowered her so much. She was running a lot of the responses last night. She was in the center

00:09:38.640 and I saw her several times, look around, look behind her, um, and, and almost seemingly coach

00:09:49.300 on where we're moving and how we're going to react. It was fascinating to watch the woman that if you

00:09:57.760 are looking at her face on the woman on her left, Stu, I don't know who it is because I couldn't see

00:10:04.880 her face, but she had short hair. She was, you know, maybe 50, 40, 50. Um, I think, uh, and we got to

00:10:15.820 know who she is because boy, oh boy, the vibes off of that woman, uh, were, were intense. These are

00:10:24.440 radicals that are sitting in there. Absolute radicals. When, uh, Ocasio-Cortez, when they said

00:10:34.100 certain things like, uh, um, you know, we, uh, let's take the border, uh, we, we have a caravan,

00:10:45.180 they hissed, uh, they booed, uh, or they grumbled, I should say when they did that. She did not stand 1.00

00:10:54.280 for any of it. She was staring down the president. I mean, many times when the president was speaking,

00:11:00.500 he would stop. And when he was, he would look at the other side and he said at one point,

00:11:06.300 uh, no, don't sit down. You're going to love this. Um, that was at the very beginning, but several

00:11:13.060 times he looked right at Ocasio-Cortez and he was delivering it to her. Uh, and for instance,

00:11:23.440 when he said, we will never go socialist. I don't know if he said those words or right after he said

00:11:30.400 those words, he looked right at her and that progressive caucus. Uh, it was, it was phenomenal

00:11:37.380 what was going on, um, inside, but I will tell you, I have thought that the, the progressive caucus,

00:11:45.640 they were radical. You have no idea. You have no idea. I would not want to be the president of the

00:11:53.120 United States, uh, at this point, because there is, I mean, to say there's no love between them,

00:12:00.340 uh, is, is a massive, massive understatement. When he was talking at the end and he was building,

00:12:12.160 um, I thought a very Reagan-esque look at America. He opened and closed with some of the best stuff,

00:12:20.940 uh, I've, I've heard, um, it's sent probably since Reagan. Uh, the Democrats did not, um, did not like

00:12:33.040 that. Um, many times I walked, I looked down and they were shaking their head like, Oh, this clap trap,

00:12:41.480 this ridiculous America clap trap. It was phenomenal to watch. I said to, uh, um, a, uh,

00:12:50.660 congressman, a couple of congressmen last night, you need to wire a new camera. You need to put a

00:12:56.580 camera right where I was sitting, right in the center, up on the balcony, front row. I was, I was

00:13:02.300 actually in the last row, but they're very close, but put that camera right there in the front row

00:13:06.340 because you can see at one point when he was talking about, um, the caravan that was coming,

00:13:14.640 uh, up through Mexico again, they all scoffed. They hissed, uh, Ocasio-Cortez just shook her head

00:13:23.460 and whispered something to her friend. Uh, and they both, they both kind of laughed and shook their

00:13:30.220 head in disgust. And then Ocasio-Cortez lifted up her phone and took a selfie. It was like, Oh my gosh,

00:13:39.400 I can't tell you how many people were scrolling their Facebook pages and they were just not even

00:13:44.460 paying attention. On the other hand, there were a few people. Joe Manchin is one of them that stood

00:13:51.800 every time the Republicans stood. Um, there was a woman and I don't know who she was, who she is.

00:13:59.580 She was in the house and she was wearing, if you were looking from the president's perspective,

00:14:04.520 she would be on his far right and almost under the balcony and, uh, midway. And she was wearing

00:14:13.280 hot pink or a fuchsia color dress. She stuck out. And I say that because Stu, I want you to see if

00:14:20.380 you could look at the crowd, find out who that woman was because she was all alone, absolutely all alone

00:14:27.920 standing, uh, at times. Uh, and I'd like to know who she was as well. Was that Kristen cinema? The

00:14:34.240 new Senator from Arizona? I believe she was the one that did not wear the white, uh, when everyone

00:14:39.260 else was wearing white. Yeah. Neither did Kamala Harris. I think Kamala was wearing black, which was

00:14:45.500 last year's color because last year was all about me too. And that color was black. And this one is

00:14:52.480 women united in the workforce or whatever. And that's white. All right. Let me tell you about 0.98

00:16:27.980 Last night, uh, I was on my way back to the hotel. It was late at night and, um,

00:16:57.980 uh, uh, I got a call, uh, from the head of my company and he said, uh, I've got some really bad

00:17:08.420 news. And I said, Oh, okay. And he said, this is really bad news. Are you seated? I said, yeah,

00:17:18.640 I'm in the car. I'm on the way back to the hotel. He said, uh,

00:17:26.540 Doc Thompson was killed, um, tonight. And it took me a while to even process if at first it just didn't

00:17:39.540 what? Apparently doc Thompson, who did the morning blaze for a long time, uh, at the place, uh,

00:17:48.540 TV and radio, uh, was out jogging last night and he had his, um, earbuds in and he was jogging next to

00:18:03.660 the railroad tracks. And apparently, um, we think that his headphones were up so loud that he could

00:18:12.280 not hear the train that was coming and it, uh, uh, sideswiped him and killed him.

00:18:23.080 Doc, the doc was one of the more talented and gregarious guys that I know. Um, he was

00:18:32.880 a guy who would come into my office all the time. I got an idea. I got an idea. He was the,

00:18:42.120 the ultimate entrepreneur and he left us. Was it during this last summer, Stu? Yeah, not too long ago.

00:18:53.460 Um, he left us to start his own business and, um, I was thrilled for doc because that's who he is.

00:19:07.520 He was just an entrepreneur and an art idea guy and he loved entrepreneurs and he loved new businesses.

00:19:14.920 And, and, and because of doc, many businesses are flourishing because he would really take them

00:19:23.860 under his wing and he cared deeply about people who were trying to do business. Um, and he left to

00:19:33.340 start, uh, his own broadcast unit. And unfortunately he put every single penny he had in it. Uh,

00:19:44.740 and he was the kind of guy who bet on tomorrow and bet, uh, on himself and he leaves behind a wife and two

00:19:55.900 children. There is a GoFundMe cave page. Uh, it's GoFundMe.com slash doc hash or what do you call it? Um,

00:20:09.200 you know, hyphen Thompson. Well, we'll send it out from the social pages here. Go ahead.

00:20:14.580 Make sure everyone can get the right link. Yeah. Um, but, uh, if you can, if you can help,

00:20:20.840 here's a guy who believed in the American dream. Here's a guy that for the blaze family, uh, woke

00:20:27.740 so many people up every morning, um, and always just had a positive attitude, um, and a can do spirit.

00:20:39.020 And we are devastated as a family, um, and devastated for his family. And we would ask that if you,

00:20:50.660 um, um, ever listened to doc or, or appreciated anything that he did that you would help his family

00:20:59.780 out. Go fund me.com slash doc hyphen Thompson. I don't know.

00:21:11.760 Um, seems like we're getting a wake up call. Jeff Fisher, uh, who worked on this program and still

00:21:24.420 works for the blaze worked on this program for 20 years. Um, and a good friend had a heart attack

00:21:32.320 over this, uh, holiday. He lived, but it, he had a heart attack to the doctors called the widow maker.

00:21:39.100 Most people don't make it. Uh, and there's something, uh, something happens when you start

00:21:46.600 losing contemporaries and doc was younger, uh, than I, than I am. Um, and I urge you to cherish

00:21:57.760 every single moment, cherish every moment. And, uh, I know this sounds cliche, but there is

00:22:09.220 nothing more important than your family. Nothing more important than your family.

00:24:15.460 One of the good guys in Congress is Thomas Massey, who I was with. I was his guest last

00:24:22.000 night, and I appreciate the invitation. Thanks for coming, Glenn. Glad to have you.

00:24:26.960 Can we turn his mic on? I can't hear him. Congressman, can you, what was the most significant

00:24:33.940 thing that you thought happened last night? I think the most significant thing was when the

00:24:39.160 president said the United States will never be a socialist country. And it looked to me like 50%

00:24:47.740 of the Democrats were glued to their seats and not clapping. In other words, they are outright

00:24:53.440 endorsing socialism now, about half of their conference. And, you know, four years ago,

00:25:00.000 if you had called Obama a socialist, they would tell you you're a racist.

00:25:04.780 Oh, no. I know that firsthand. I know that firsthand.

00:25:09.780 But now the mask is off, and they're openly running as socialists. And the ones who aren't

00:25:15.700 openly running as socialists recognize it's a huge part of their primary voting base and don't want to

00:25:23.940 upset the socialists. But I think it points to a big problem with the Democrat Party that they have

00:25:29.180 going forward. It's a, you know, the extreme form of what small government Republicans advocate for

00:25:36.820 is libertarianism. In other words, we just leave everybody alone. Right. Okay. The extreme form of

00:25:42.860 what the Democrats campaign on is communism and socialism. And so they are out, out-socialism-ing

00:25:51.260 each other. I know. And what was amazing was it wasn't to placate. I suppose it is for some to placate

00:26:03.060 their base. But there are hard core extremists on the left now in Congress. I mean, I was shocked.

00:26:14.560 Another thing that was even more extreme in the reaction was when President Trump called out

00:26:20.360 the third trimester and later, if you will, which is five seconds later, I guess, when he called out

00:26:29.160 how wrong it was to kill infants who were just born. And I didn't see them stand up or clap for that.

00:26:37.120 No, not those hardcore women in the white, in the center. Some of them. 1.00

00:26:41.960 I think almost the whole Democrat caucus refused to clap when he, I mean, that's, so you're talking

00:26:49.540 about extremism. This is where they've gone in two to four years. Yeah. And then the other thing is,

00:26:57.500 and this disappointed me with my own party, when the president said, great countries don't fight

00:27:05.480 endless wars. That to me was an obvious bipartisan applause line. I thought so, too. And I was like,

00:27:14.520 maybe one of two dozen who stood up out of 435 and clapped for that. That concerns me. This is

00:27:22.560 because it's really Congress's authority and decision of where to deploy our troops. And we've

00:27:31.120 abdicated that. And this is a president who might have to be the person who stops these wars. Like,

00:27:39.840 that would be his greatest legacy, not creating another social program like paid maternity leave

00:27:46.780 for men, you know. And that was crazy. He said so many things last night that they should have,

00:27:53.240 for instance, the end of endless wars. That's where their party has always been. That's what Obama

00:27:59.160 said he was going to do. He promised it, never delivered it. Right. Here's a guy who actually

00:28:04.960 looks like he's going to deliver it, and they are not for it. It's crazy. It was stunning to me,

00:28:12.340 frankly. The arrogance, you and I went through Nancy Pelosi's office and we kind of crashed that

00:28:21.280 party. Yeah. I mean, we didn't rifle through the desk. You wouldn't let me, but we went through and

00:28:26.520 it was a huge party. Um, and her office area, I don't even know how big it actually is, but it

00:28:33.920 looks as big as some people's houses. Well, it's, it's a large complex, but that was Paul Ryan's

00:28:39.760 office, uh, you know, just two months ago. Right. And John Boehner's before the reason why I bring it

00:28:45.460 up is the arrogance, the arrogance that, um, that people who are in Washington can gain

00:28:54.140 quickly. I mean, you come up to that office. Oh yeah. I mean, you are the king of the world.

00:29:02.040 Here's something I didn't show you about the office that's on the second floor to get to the majority

00:29:09.180 leader's office. You have to go to the speaker's office, get in an elevator and go up a floor.

00:29:15.020 So nobody can go to the number two person's office without walking through the number one person's

00:29:21.200 office. Oh my gosh. And so it's, it's a way that the speaker always keeps a check on the person who's

00:29:29.500 immediately below the speaker. And there, there's so much power that has concentrated into the speaker's

00:29:36.660 office. This is dangerous for Congress. Like we, it's, I've, I've joked that we take one vote and

00:29:43.020 then we're done for two years, which is we vote for the speaker on the first day of Congress.

00:29:47.340 And then the speaker calls all the shots. It didn't used to be that way, but the speaker has all the

00:29:52.880 power. Uh, they control whether you get fundraising donations or not from the packs. The speaker controls

00:30:01.660 whether your bills come up on the floor, the speaker even has so much power over the committee

00:30:06.660 chairman that they can tell the committee chairman don't have a hearing on that person's bill. And

00:30:12.280 they pick, they basically pick who's going to be on what committee. And it didn't used to always be

00:30:17.940 that way. So last night you said something really profound, um, to me, you were wearing a pin. And if

00:30:25.120 you happen to be watching, it's this pin, uh, it is, um, uh, the congressional pin. Yours is, uh, 116.

00:30:34.680 They're all numbered. And you know, the police move out of your way. You are, you are the king

00:30:41.220 when you have this pin. And it's making me nervous that you're holding it. And I'm not because I call it

00:30:47.380 precious. It is too. It is. And you, you, you weren't wearing it, uh, for the, when I first

00:30:56.100 met you last night. Uh, and then when we start walking over the Capitol, you put it on, uh, and

00:31:01.580 you actually apologized for putting it on. Because when you put this pin on, it goes to your head.

00:31:08.820 And this is what happens to 434 members of the house. The Senate has a pin too, but you, when you

00:31:16.060 put this on, the police get out of your way. The tourists take note. Uh, the staffers won't speak

00:31:23.580 in an elevator if they see somebody with a pin on. And it's, you start to feel those reactions,

00:31:30.200 how people react to you. They react to you differently. And, uh, it changes your thought

00:31:35.540 process. So just like if a hobbit, you know, if you're a Lord of the Rings fan, when a hobbit puts

00:31:41.320 on the ring, it starts corrupting them. And the same thing happens when you put on this

00:31:46.040 congressional pin. And so I try not to wear it. Now, last night there were extra guards

00:31:50.840 who, uh, aren't normally at the Capitol and I didn't want to get face planted into the

00:31:57.420 granite. Uh, they are serious. Oh, they were everywhere. Yeah. I mean, I don't think I've

00:32:03.980 ever been to anything with so many police and secret service. I mean, they were everywhere

00:32:11.100 deep. I mean, they were lined up deep. I got to tell you this as, uh, so there's a designated

00:32:17.620 survivor, right? Uh, it was Rick Perry last night, I think. Was it? Well, as people filtered

00:32:24.080 into the room, certain cabinet members, I'm not going to say who I was like, that's not

00:32:29.600 the designated survivor. He's here. I'm not going to tell you which of the cabinet members I felt

00:32:37.560 that way about. It was, it was amazing. I've never, um, you know, cause we were in what an

00:32:45.180 hour early. Um, and so the people who are right up next, the ones are always taking their photos

00:32:52.240 with the president and everybody else. Right. They'll, those are not assigned seats. You go

00:32:58.240 in, anyone can sit anywhere except, except for the leadership leadership. Um, and, uh, so those

00:33:05.420 people get in four hours ahead of time and they have to sit there. You can't put your name on a

00:33:10.540 seat and walk away. So there are congressmen that show up and sit down for four hours just to be in

00:33:17.180 that frame with the president. That's crazy. That is crazy. And so they come in, Nancy Pelosi comes

00:33:26.160 in about 45 minutes, actually, I think 30 minutes before, um, and the room begins to change and they

00:33:34.220 start to, uh, you know, introduce everybody and they know here's the cabinet and here's the Supreme

00:33:40.540 Court. Um, and I think it's a cabinet that's introduced last, right before the president,

00:33:47.180 comes in. I know the vice president's been in there for half an hour. Right. And, uh, when I

00:33:52.560 went in, I noticed that the Republicans were, uh, typical Republicans, you know, we were all kind

00:34:00.260 of just, uh, uh, just kind of stick in our butt kind of people, you know what I mean? Where we were

00:34:06.100 quiet and it was, it was, it was appropriate behavior. The Democrats, especially the new women, 1.00

00:34:12.700 progressive caucus. Oh my gosh. That was like a, that was a college party. It was like a, to me,

00:34:20.300 it felt like a reunion. Um, they, their attitude was, they were giddy to be there. They taking

00:34:28.920 selfies all over. Oh my gosh. Now I might sneak a picture once in a while on the floor, but I mean,

00:34:35.960 they were openly, you know, posing and it was kind of like a party atmosphere over there.

00:34:42.420 Ocasio-Cortez took a selfie when the president was talking about the caravan on the border.

00:34:47.780 That's when she was taking a selfie. It was unbelievable. But the other thing I noticed

00:34:51.920 is everybody says they don't like the president. Okay. But in that three minute period, four minute

00:35:00.800 period, um, before the president walks out, you could feel the room anticipate the arrival of the

00:35:09.240 president. It got quiet. Uh, it was, it was just different. You could tell, I mean, the power of

00:35:18.460 the president, even this president who they claim to hate and have no respect for it changed the

00:35:25.080 temperature of the room when they knew he was the next one. Well, it's one of the cards the president

00:35:29.820 gets to play is the state of the union and they have to sit there and they have to be filmed when

00:35:35.300 they react to the president. Now the Democrats will get to play their card starting today that

00:35:41.600 when I leave the studio here, I'm going to a hearing in the oversight committee that I serve

00:35:46.580 on with Jim Jordan and Mark Meadows. And that's going to be gavel to gavel, go after this administration.

00:35:53.360 Uh, and that's the card they get to play starting today. And all those hearings, you know, for the

00:36:00.200 last six years that I've been in Congress in the oversight committee, you couldn't find an NBC camera

00:36:04.900 or a CNN camera. There were Fox cameras. Well, now the Fox cameras are gone and there will be,

00:36:11.340 uh, MSNBC and CNN cameras in the oversight committee. And they'll, they will use that. I sometimes call it

00:36:18.200 the theater committee because you have to muster your righteous indignation and walk in there and ask

00:36:24.440 people, how could you, when did you first know, what were you thinking? Right. Um, but that's going

00:36:30.600 to be their bully pulpit. Now they're bully gavel. If you will, the president, um, the president

00:36:35.780 addressed that, you know, investigation, investigation, uh, and that caucus with Ocasio-Cortez, just that

00:36:44.100 those group of people, Ocasio-Cortez turned around and, and shook her head like, I, can you believe

00:36:50.320 this guy and smiled? Like we are gonna get him. Yeah. That's unfortunate because I think he did

00:36:57.880 start out with a tone of, of, uh, bipartisanship and cooperation. He said country over party, the

00:37:06.380 Democrats after about four seconds were shamed into standing up for that, uh, you know, for that

00:37:12.360 statement country over party, which I thought something anybody could be for, um, real quick.

00:37:17.860 I want to, I want to say this to you and it goes to the budget. I've got about a minute. He, but he

00:37:23.640 was talking about the intermediate nuclear missiles and he said, perhaps we can negotiate a different

00:37:29.800 agreement adding China and others. Perhaps we can't, which in case we will outspend and innovate all

00:37:36.540 others by far terrifying line. I did not stand up and clap. I mean, that was the model of the Soviet 0.99

00:37:43.380 union was to outspend the United States and they collapsed because of it. So, uh, now the, the

00:37:50.040 missile treaty that we have with Russia does cause us to spend more money when trying to keep up with

00:37:56.360 China. Uh, I had this explained to me when I was in Korea last year by the generals over there. Uh,

00:38:02.620 we've got this thing that ties our hands with Russia. We can't deploy intermediate missiles.

00:38:07.560 And, uh, so we can't even cover all of China. But you are, um, you, you and I both were disturbed

00:38:16.040 that there was no mention of $22 trillion. None. You did not hear anything about the debt or the

00:38:23.760 deficit in this state of the union. You're not going to hear about it in the hearings that the

00:38:28.380 Democrats have. This is, we're going to be in the dark for two years here. Not that, you know,

00:38:33.300 we were fiscal conservatives before. Right. Right. But, uh, but this, this president didn't

00:38:39.420 campaign on balancing the budget and this is the problem. He believes in debt and he can get away

00:38:43.360 with this because the people are not upset about the debt enough. They should be. I know. Thomas,

00:38:48.040 thank you so much. Congressman Thomas Massey, um, really, truly one of the good guys who, uh,

00:38:53.840 uh, my precious has not taken his soul yet. You were the, you were the hottest date at the state

00:39:00.200 of the union. Thanks for coming. Thank you. Appreciate it. God bless. Uh, all right. Let

00:39:04.680 me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. It is real estate agents. I trust.com. It's something

00:39:11.320 Tony, Tonya and I, and my brother, we started, uh, I don't know, a few years ago and it really

00:39:16.260 started out of frustration of trying to sell a home and, and not knowing who to hire in after that

00:39:23.740 time period. I started doing work with, um, the, uh, the group of people, the wall street journal

00:39:28.880 always does a, uh, the best real estate agents in the country and they do a list. So I know who

00:39:34.860 the top 500 people are. And I started doing work with them on different things and I learned about

00:39:39.560 real estate and I learned about what makes a good real estate agent. So we didn't start a real estate

00:39:44.580 company. We just started a matchmaking service, really, uh, one that hooks you up with the right

00:39:51.940 people, somebody who really knows their job and can sell your home on time and for the

00:39:57.080 most amount of money. So if you're looking to sell or buy a home, go to real estate agents,

00:40:02.580 I trust.com. Find the person that will make this easy for you. Real estate agents. I trust.com.

00:40:13.200 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:40:21.940 Welcome to the program. This is the Glenn Beck program. We are live, uh, from, uh, our Washington

00:40:35.120 DC bureau back in, uh, Dallas, Texas. Thank God, uh, by this afternoon, um, we have, um, Mike

00:40:44.840 Lee is going to be joining us here from Washington. He's coming into studio, Senator Jim DeMint

00:40:49.140 and more coverage on, uh, last night's state of the union. I have a, a very different perspective,

00:40:58.260 um, because I was in the room and I don't think it played the same in the room as it did on

00:41:04.420 television. Television I hear looked like every state of the union, boy, it did not feel that

00:41:09.540 way to me in the room. More coming up. You're listening to Glenn Beck.

00:41:19.140 Home title lock is our sponsor here, Glenn. Uh, home title lock, of course, is a company

00:41:25.300 we love because they protect you from a utter disaster in your entire financial life. Uh,

00:41:31.000 if you get, if you're a victim of home title fraud, you are going to spend years and years

00:41:34.540 trying to unwind it. And honestly, at the end of the day, you're going to be out tens

00:41:38.340 of thousands of dollars, if not more home title lock protects you from that. Um, home title

00:42:08.920 the program. Uh, and you should be too. Home title lock.com is the place to go.

00:42:17.500 What was the big takeaway from the president's speech last night? I have, uh, some opinions

00:42:25.380 I want to share with you. I was there in the gallery last night and it takes on a different

00:42:31.080 feel when you're there. It was odd to be there, but I learned a lot and I want to share what

00:42:37.340 I learned coming up in just a second. Also, Jim DeMint joins us. Uh, former Senator Jim

00:42:43.960 DeMint, uh, is a, a great friend of the Republic and the program and a friend of the constitution

00:42:51.040 and common sense. What was his takeaway? We go to Jim DeMint as the radio broadcast begins

00:42:56.580 in one minute.

00:43:00.280 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:43:02.280 field of greens field of greens is the first real super food and the difference that sets

00:43:08.520 it apart can be seen right on the bottle. It has nutrition facts, not supplement facts

00:43:14.220 because there aren't any supplements in it. This is real food. And so it has nutrition

00:43:18.220 facts. We have an epidemic of crappy food here in America, and it's just going to get better

00:43:25.080 as we make laser meat. Holy cow. Anyway, um, you could eat more salads, but really seriously,

00:43:33.700 I know I'm not talking to all guys and I'm not talking to all women. Uh, but generally speaking,

00:43:41.360 uh, guys hate salads. Uh, I know I do eat your fruits and vegetables starts young. Then the women 1.00

00:43:47.980 just try to indoctrinate that lie that you've got to have three servings. And, uh, you know,

00:43:54.780 now that my body is falling apart, I probably, uh, is probably the truth. But if you don't

00:44:00.020 like salads as much as I don't have field of greens, it's a real super food team of top

00:44:06.220 physicians gathered from brick house nutrition. They created field of dreams. It has one full

00:44:11.900 serving of real certified vegan, vegetarian, USDA, organic fruits and vegetables. It's complete

00:44:18.280 with the prebiotics, the probiotics and the antioxidants, and it is clean energy. And all you have

00:44:24.740 to do is just put a scoop of it in your water or whatever you're drinking and, uh, knock it back

00:44:29.840 and you're done. And you don't have to have a salad ever again. Ah, I love this time period.

00:44:54.740 Senator Jim DeMint, welcome to the program. How are you, sir?

00:45:07.100 Glenn, I'm doing great. It's great to be back with you. And I'm glad you got to experience the

00:45:12.040 State of the Union in person in the gallery last night. It's a, it's, it's quite an experience.

00:45:17.720 Yeah. It was very, very different than what it feels like on TV. It was at just me.

00:45:25.700 No, there's a whole lot going on where people sit, who they sit next to a lot of trying to

00:45:31.340 rush out to, to do interviews afterwards. I mean, there's just a whole lot of things going on in

00:45:38.860 addition to the president giving the speech. All right. So Jim DeMint, chairman of the

00:45:44.140 Conservative Partnership Institute. Um, Jim, what is, what was the takeaway? Did you think

00:45:49.940 anything historic happened last night? Well, as an American, as a conservative, and as someone who

00:45:57.040 values common sense, and you mentioned that right before I came on, I thought it was an

00:46:02.780 inspiring speech. And I think you mentioned, uh, self-deprecating that the Trump did take it

00:46:10.780 down a notch and that's hard for him to do, but it was very genuine in the sense of trying to get

00:46:17.300 people to work together. And if you watch closely on a lot of points, he had the Democrats, even the

00:46:24.560 women dressed in white were, were clapping with him that they could not stay in their seats for

00:46:29.880 some of the things that he brought up. So I was really proud of him. I was proud of the American

00:46:35.640 election. And, and, and I hope that a little of that will take root with, um, both the Republicans

00:46:41.580 and Democrats. Yeah, I don't think so. I mean, being in the room, uh, the, especially the women in 0.90

00:46:48.320 white, the, the first row with, uh, Casio Cortez, I mean, it was as radical as it gets. There are

00:46:55.160 radicals, uh, in the, uh, in the Democratic party now. Uh, I mean, I saw some things that I'm going to 0.91

00:47:01.240 talk about later that I, I was just, I was shocked by, I did think there was a historic moment last

00:47:07.540 night and that came towards the end when, uh, the president said, uh, let me see if I can find it

00:47:15.200 here. Um, shoot, I had it pulled out. Here it is. He said here in the United States, we are alarmed by

00:47:24.860 new calls to adopt socialism in our country. America was founded on Liberty and independence,

00:47:30.560 not government coercion, domination and control. We are born free and we will stay free tonight.

00:47:38.080 We renew our resolve that America will never be a socialist country. Um, it was historic to me,

00:47:45.760 not just because he said it, but because he felt he needed to say it. And a good number of Democrats

00:47:53.180 did not clap or stand for that. You're right. It needed to be said. I was proud of him for saying

00:48:01.940 it. And I mean, he's willing to take issues head on, Glenn. I mean, and you know, he brought up the

00:48:07.420 life issue in a context that was better than anyone I've ever heard. And he's not afraid to bring God

00:48:13.780 into the picture. And so to me, I mean, Trump is somewhat of an enigma. If you, if you look at,

00:48:20.800 um, I guess all of his background and everything, but I, I just couldn't be more inspired and proud

00:48:27.540 that he is hitting the notes, the points that are so common sense to take America forward.

00:48:35.160 And I, and I saw some polls this morning that indicated about 75% or so approved of the speech.

00:48:41.840 And, um, and I hope if it doesn't take hold in Congress, I hope it will take hold with the people

00:48:49.580 because what he said is very needed. The opportunity in front of us and the energy field and the move

00:48:56.100 ahead with our economy is, is real. None of this was make-believe the statistics about how the last

00:49:02.920 two years have gone economically and the things that have been accomplished are real, but they're just

00:49:09.400 the tip of the iceberg. Imagine what we could do if Congress could work together.

00:49:14.180 I was, uh, again, um, shocked at how the Democrats reacted, uh, to those job numbers. He said,

00:49:24.340 on Friday, it was announced that we added another 304,000 jobs last month alone, double what was

00:49:30.720 expected. An economic miracle is taking place in the United States. And the only thing that can stop us

00:49:35.680 are foolish wars, politics, or ridiculous partisan investigations. First of all, when they talked

00:49:42.000 about, when he talked about, um, the numbers of Hispanics and African-American and women in the

00:49:48.840 workforce, they did not react well to that. And I was shocked. How do you not, how do you not stand

00:49:56.380 and applaud that? That's, that's a victory for all of us. Um, uh, but then he, when he ended it,

00:50:02.680 go ahead. No, I'm just saying the Democrats, the left are building their whole platform on,

00:50:09.040 on victims. And when the president breaks that paradigm and talks about policies that help

00:50:15.560 minorities that move our country forward. And more than anything, the president is taking the

00:50:20.780 working class Americans, even union members away from the Democrats. And, and they're having to,

00:50:27.680 I mean, they're going apoplectic, as you can see, they're moving to the left. Uh, I just hope not

00:50:33.500 much of the country will follow them. I can't imagine doing that, but the facts don't matter to

00:50:38.800 the left. And that means the media as well. So the ability of the American people to know what the

00:50:44.620 president said last night, I'm sure a few million watched it, but most will know what he said by the

00:50:50.300 way the media, um, interprets and reports it. So we've got a lot of work to do to just help America

00:50:57.280 understand that, that, that the, that the free enterprise, uh, common sense, traditional value

00:51:03.300 policies make their life better. And I'm committed to that. I know you are. And, and I'm just, um,

00:51:10.080 pretty excited that we've got a president who's willing to, to tackle these things head on.

00:51:14.600 So Jim, tell, tell people what you're doing now. Because you were, you were at the Heritage

00:51:21.980 Foundation, you were a Senator and one of the best, uh, in the Tea Party era, you were one of

00:51:27.420 the first adopters, um, and you know, you were looking for help, uh, and you saw the Tea Party

00:51:33.620 as the Calvary, I think. Um, uh, but you, then you went to the Heritage Foundation and now you're

00:51:39.600 Conservative Partnership Institute. Explain what that is and what you do.

00:51:43.380 Well, Glenn, what I've seen is groups, uh, movements like the Tea Party can help elect

00:51:49.280 mass waves of good people, but then the swamp, the establishment, even the Republican Party

00:51:54.700 tears them down. I left Heritage to build an organization that supports conservatives on the

00:52:01.140 inside of Congress and inside the government, the administration. So what we do at the Conservative

00:52:06.580 Partnership, we get congressmen and senators together, uh, develop camaraderie, help them develop

00:52:11.840 consensus. We do a lot of staff training so that when good people come, they don't end up with bad

00:52:17.600 staff that's steering them in the wrong direction. And that happens 80% of the time. So we, we've got

00:52:23.640 a job bank. We try to get good people around good people and just get them together. I mean,

00:52:28.160 the place isolates you, it carves you out of the herd. And then before you know it, you're just part of

00:52:34.200 the wallpaper up there and I've just seen so many people that I, I helped elect just go the wrong

00:52:39.520 way. And so my, but for the rest of my time is just to build a support system that gets the backs

00:52:47.040 of the people who are trying to do the right thing. Jim, I will tell you that, um, I, I rode the tram

00:52:54.900 for the first time in the tunnels underneath. Um, and it's like, it's, it's like, uh, you know,

00:53:01.260 1962 Disneyland. It's bizarre and surreal. This little tram that takes, you know, senators and,

00:53:08.300 and house members to the Capitol, which is literally a block and a half away. Um, but it takes them,

00:53:15.720 uh, you know, for about a three or four minute ride on this tram. Um, and then I went upstairs and I

00:53:21.960 was in Nancy Pelosi's office for a few minutes and I saw the, the unbelievable shindig that was going

00:53:29.520 on, um, in, in her office and the, the detachment. And I almost, I mean, you know, me, Jim, I love

00:53:38.980 the secret service. I almost came to fisticuffs with a secret service agent last night. I, I mean,

00:53:44.600 I have, I have never been offended by a secret service agent before. Um, and I had a stare down

00:53:51.940 after like a fourth encounter with this guy. Um, because he kept telling me, stop taking notes

00:53:59.460 during the state of the union in the gallery. And, uh, first of all, the rules also state that

00:54:04.740 no applause in the gallery. So I think we were letting go of the rules. Um, and I, I went in,

00:54:11.240 I could not have a cell phone. I wasn't supposed to have anything that could record anything. I would,

00:54:17.060 no communication devices. And yet here was Congress beneath us and they were, they were taking selfies.

00:54:24.580 They were, uh, on their Facebook pages. They were surfing the web. They were talking during this

00:54:32.300 thing. They were booing and hissing. And this guy comes to me and says, don't take notes. And,

00:54:37.740 and I thought all I could think of was these people work for me and everybody else in the gallery.

00:54:44.740 You shouldn't be worried about us. You should be worried about them. Why am I the outcast here?

00:54:51.160 I, I, I just had a real problem. How flipped the system is. Well, well, they make the rules,

00:54:58.380 but they don't expect to follow them. And that's part of the problem. Exactly right.

00:55:02.500 They're kind of looking down on the rest of us. Not all of them are that way. No, no,

00:55:07.980 I know that to cause distress. And, uh, uh, maybe it's always been that way, but, um, um,

00:55:16.360 anyway, I'm glad you got a chance to experience the secret service by and large or, uh, overworked

00:55:22.260 and other great, but they don't apply the rules equally. Um, I can tell you that.

00:55:29.400 Yeah. I, I, and I will tell you that I did ask for forgiveness, uh, you know, in my prayers at night

00:55:35.740 when I got back because I shouldn't have, I mean, I got into a stare down with it. It was not,

00:55:41.260 it was not pretty, not one of my finer moments. And I, I should apologize to him. If I had his name,

00:55:46.820 I would apologize to him, but, um, I just couldn't take these ridiculous rules on the people and none on

00:55:53.120 them. Um, Jim, thank you so much. God bless you. God bless the work that you're doing. You can follow

00:55:57.980 Jim DeMint at Jim DeMint. Um, thank you so much, Jim. We'll talk to you again later.

00:56:03.920 Thank you, Glenn. Bye-bye.

00:56:08.860 Okay. What's the problem with public wifi? What's the problem with public wifi? Well,

00:56:14.740 everything's fine.

00:56:15.400 Uh, let me say it's no, no, it's really not. What's wrong with public wifi? It sounds like a

00:56:19.640 great thing.

00:56:20.300 Well, it's the problem. No, the problem is in the first, uh, is, is in the name itself,

00:56:24.800 public, public, even if it's password protective, uh, you can be tossing all your expectations right

00:56:32.920 out the window of any kind of security. Cyber criminals can use wifi to steal the personal

00:56:38.860 information you send and receive while online. They can see all the information, private photos,

00:56:45.640 financial statements, tax returns, everything. There is a way, uh, to use public wifi privately.

00:56:52.620 And that is if you get Norton secure VPN. Now a VPN is, it takes you and it, um, it routes

00:57:03.480 you into different computers. For instance, you ever see the, you ever see the TV shows

00:57:08.440 where they're like, uh, where is he? Where is he? Where is the computer? They're like, he's

00:57:12.880 in London. No, he's in the Netherlands. No, he's in the middle East. He's in China. And they

00:57:18.340 have to hang up before they, you know, they find him that's VPN. It bounces you around. So it, it

00:57:25.560 does not come back to you. So you are on a private network or a private server. So nobody knows who

00:57:32.840 you are. That really helps you in security. It's for your laptop, your mobile devices. It's easy to

00:57:40.020 use. All you have to do is install it, log in once. And Norton secure VPN immediately provides you

00:57:46.600 with more privacy and security than you're going to find any place else. It protects you

00:57:50.420 from hackers by encrypting your connection. We were just talking about this two days ago

00:57:56.080 in a meeting with, um, the researchers. And, um, we were talking about who do you trust with a VPN

00:58:02.640 because Facebook, you know, wants everybody to get on a VPN. Yeah. Well, thank you Facebook

00:58:08.820 because if it's their VPN, they now, and just released in the news last week, they're gathering

00:58:15.900 all the information on a VPN. Well, that's why you use a VPN. So nobody is gathering your

00:58:21.740 information and you're left alone and you're secure. Uh, who do you go to? Well, you go to the

00:58:29.000 people who have done security, uh, for you and for the internet and for your computer, Norton

00:58:35.420 for a very, very long time to get to, uh, to get Norton secure VPN, you go to Norton.com slash VPN

00:59:40.120 You know, I guess the reason why I was upset last night, um, well, a, the arrogance, I can't take

00:59:46.160 the arrogance, uh, of Washington. I I'm pissed off before I even get to Washington. I get to,

00:59:51.340 I get to Virginia and I lived here in the eighties. And so I know what it was like, you know,

00:59:58.060 in 1983 or 19, I actually lived here in 1982. And I remember what it was like, and it wasn't like

01:00:04.920 this. Now these gigantic skyscrapers are all around Washington and there are all these corporations

01:00:11.940 that are setting up business. Hello, Amazon. Uh, hello, Google. And all the re the only reason why

01:00:18.760 they're here is to be able to court government officials and to get special deals. And it's

01:00:25.420 so corrupt and so dirty. Um, and as I was sitting there, I, I said to the guys who were sitting

01:00:33.340 next to me and we, we, we didn't know each other at all at the beginning of the evening.

01:00:38.140 Um, and you know, he's, you're going in one person at a time. So it's not like, you know,

01:00:42.840 my husband and I, or my friend and I are going to the state of the union. It's a congressman or a

01:00:48.240 senator invites you and he's got, you know, one guest that he can put in there. Um, and, uh,

01:00:54.700 so we're all kind of just orphans and nobody knows if you're right or left. And so you just

01:01:00.840 start talking to each other and you, you do the American thing. You just start on basics.

01:01:06.420 And, uh, I don't know if these guys were right or left. Um, but, uh, I said, so how many people

01:01:16.580 here down there in looking at from the gallery down on Congress, how many people here do you think

01:01:23.100 actually protect and defend the constitution or even think about that? And both the guys that were

01:01:30.660 sitting next to me, they both shook their head and said, on both sides. And I said, yeah. And they

01:01:36.080 said, not many. And it is, it's so sick. This system is so sick that we're talking about getting

01:01:50.260 rid of the free market system. The masks, as I told you at Fox, when they started calling me a racist

01:01:57.240 for saying that the president is socialist and he is, he's surrounding himself with socialists.

01:02:03.280 It was, I was a racist. And I said at the time on Fox, mark my words, they want to tell us, they want

01:02:13.540 to, they're dying to say, yeah, your crappy system doesn't work. Yes, I am a system. I am a socialist

01:02:20.060 because that will work. This time we'll do it right. And I said, the masks are going to come off

01:02:26.320 and the masks have come off. And the contempt for some of the people that were there, the lack of

01:02:34.800 respect for some of the people that are serving on, on, on what they're really doing.

01:02:43.820 The, the corruption that is here, but it's not in mainstream America. It's not in all of the places

01:02:53.940 that most of the people in Washington despise.

01:03:00.200 It's in the power centers and it's in the giant corporations that come in and want special

01:03:06.880 favors and special deals. And these are the people telling us how to live our lives. No,

01:03:13.700 wait a minute. We're supposed to tell you how you're supposed to behave in Congress. And it's

01:03:22.820 the opposite way. They flip the whole system upside down. And I thought the president was

01:03:30.480 inspiring, truly inspiring. And I have not said that about this president before. Last night

01:03:37.040 was an inspiring message. And I want to share that when we come back.

01:03:41.980 you're listening to Glenn Beck, simply safe mission from day one, three million families

01:03:54.640 agree. Now that they're protected by simply safe, it is so much better when you fear less

01:04:01.640 fear. Doesn't have a place, um, in, um, in our, in our homes. And the president was right

01:04:08.900 last night when he said, you know, all these people who are against the border, they all

01:04:12.800 are wealthy and their donors are wealthy and they all live behind gates and fences. And

01:04:20.540 they know that works. And, uh, there was some hissing from the left, but it was absolutely

01:04:27.160 true. They can afford it. Well, now you can too. You can afford to be safe with simply safe.

01:04:34.500 It's $14 and 99 cents a month. That's no contract. That's just to monitor you, um, and your home

01:04:42.440 and to call fire or police when needed. And you own the system. Go to simply safe, Beck.com

01:04:51.900 Big night of coverage last night on blaze tv.com for the state of the union. It's blaze tv.com

01:04:57.080 slash Beck promo code is Beck. We welcome, uh, to our studios in Washington, DC Senator

01:05:06.460 Mike Lee. How are you Senator? Doing great. It's good to be with you. Yeah. Uh, so I was

01:05:10.680 in the gallery last night. It takes on the state of the union takes on a different feel

01:05:15.260 when you're actually there. It does absolutely electric. And last night was no exception.

01:05:19.160 Yeah. Uh, and I was, I wouldn't necessarily call it electric, but, um, uh, but, uh, sitting

01:05:26.580 up in the gallery, I was facing the president. I was 50 yard line facing the president. I could

01:05:31.640 see what everybody was doing with their cell phones and I could see who was engaged, who

01:05:36.120 wasn't it. There needs to be a camera from behind, um, and focused on, you know, all of the

01:05:44.080 the senators and all of the, uh, house members because it really takes on a different view

01:05:50.760 when you're watching who's telling who, what, and who's whispering something and how they're

01:05:57.260 really reacting. And when they're taking selfies at really inappropriate times, it was amazing.

01:06:02.360 I can imagine. I I'd like to sit up there sometime just to get that perspective. It was amazing.

01:06:07.140 Um, I thought the speech last night may have definitely the best speech I think I've heard

01:06:12.360 him give. Um, and I think it may be one of the most inspiring speeches I've heard in, uh,

01:06:20.400 in, uh, a state of the union. I'm trying to remember Bush maybe after nine 11, but I don't

01:06:27.120 think so. I think you go back to Reagan on that soaring kind of, this is who we are kind

01:06:33.140 of thing. Yeah, I think that's right. This is the best state of the union I've heard in

01:06:36.320 a long time, certainly been since I've been in office and really for quite a while before

01:06:40.140 then he knocked it out of the park. It was terrific. Um, what are you expecting out of

01:06:45.540 this? Anything? First of all, was there anything historic that happened last night that he said

01:06:50.060 or anything historic? Yes. Here's what I think is the single most historic takeaway. When the

01:06:56.900 president of the United States said, Hey, you know, we should be concerned about the killing

01:07:02.480 of babies who have been born and are breathing and virtually half of the chamber in the house

01:07:10.500 of representatives, half of the senators, virtually half of the representatives sat there silent,

01:07:17.600 stone-faced, refusing to respond in any way that was historic, not necessarily in a good way,

01:07:23.620 but it was historic. Nonetheless, it's a chilling reminder of how far our government has drifted

01:07:29.080 from what normal people of, of ordinary moral sensibilities know is right. Um, I think they

01:07:34.640 are so far out of touch with, uh, the Democrats in the art land, the Democrats around the country,

01:07:41.340 at least the Democrats that I know. And I don't think the Democrats, um, really understand how radical

01:07:48.160 these people really are. And, and I tell you, Mike, I, I look at this every day and I talk about the

01:07:53.800 radicals. I've been talking about, you know, the socialists for a long time. I don't think I 0.91

01:07:58.940 really realized how radical they were until I sat in that chamber last night and I watched them react

01:08:05.180 when the cameras were not on them. They mocked, they laughed, uh, they poked at each other. It was

01:08:14.220 almost like a college reunion, um, uh, atmosphere. Um, and when he was talking about serious, serious

01:08:23.780 issues, the, the, the, the, the border issue and the caravan, they mocked him the whole time in the

01:08:31.840 chamber. Um, when they, when he talked about abortion and what was happening, um, they were

01:08:38.440 poking each other and rolling each other, rolling their eyes at each other. It was obscene. And I think

01:08:45.100 if the average Democrat would have sat where I was sitting last night, uh, I think they would have

01:08:51.400 realized, Oh, these people, I mean, the mask is fully off when they don't think the cameras are

01:08:57.780 there. And I actually felt bad for you and the president and everybody else that was, that goes

01:09:03.800 into this every day because you're not dealing with honest brokers. You're not dealing with people

01:09:09.100 who are, who they say they are. That's exactly right. Setting aside for a minute, those who would

01:09:16.060 consider themselves Republicans or libertarians or even independents, just the rank and file Democrat

01:09:21.160 out there, I think has got to be a little bit shocked by this more than a little bit shocked,

01:09:25.780 uh, because when it was about them, they were celebrating when the cameras were on them,

01:09:31.420 they were cheering or doing whatever they could to draw attention to themselves. It was about them

01:09:37.520 when it was about the most vulnerable among us, babies who have been born who are in the most

01:09:43.660 defenseless, vulnerable position imaginable. They sat there stone cold silence and their silence was

01:09:50.920 deafening on that. It was, you know, I think there was a turning point, uh, and it was a warning,

01:09:56.220 I think to the American people and to Democrats, but they missed it. Um, when we heard the Democratic

01:10:04.300 party at their convention, deny God three times, remember that vote. And I thought it was significant

01:10:10.900 that they took three votes and they denied him three times. Maybe they'll be like Peter and repent

01:10:17.080 later and decide maybe we shouldn't have done that. Right. So I thought that was an important

01:10:21.880 turning point, but that was a turning point for if you were religious, you know, that meant something

01:10:27.960 to you. Um, but this is the fruit of that tree. And when they denied that a baby born should be saved,

01:10:39.720 when they denied that that was life, that was worth preserving a baby, not, we're not talking,

01:10:46.100 we're not even talking in the womb. We're talking now been born and, uh, and is disabled,

01:10:54.240 or they tried to kill it through abortion or just minutes before their birth. It's obscene. And when

01:11:01.720 they didn't stand for that, and when the president of the United States has to say, we are disturbed by the

01:11:09.140 growth of socialism. And, uh, this country will never be socialist. Four years ago, they were

01:11:17.200 mocking anyone who said they were socialist. Now they didn't clap or stand to say, yeah, you're right.

01:11:24.960 America's never going to go socialist. They were, they were not happy with that. And, and look,

01:11:31.160 Glenn, I, I avoid at Hitler references like the plague. I do too. If I only knew what at Hitler or 0.66

01:11:38.060 Hitlerian references, uh, to, to Adolf Hitler, I avoid that like the plague. Yeah. But at some

01:11:46.660 point in a society, the minute we start talking about killing those who were not willing to

01:11:53.320 recognize as people in, in this case, a breathing, breathing, living human being who has been born,

01:11:59.400 we need to ask ourselves, how did we get here? And how do we get out of this situation? How do we make

01:12:05.300 sure that those people are protected? That's just wrong. I keep, when I woke up this morning,

01:12:09.280 I kept thinking maybe there was a misunderstanding. Maybe that side of the aisle couldn't hear the

01:12:13.640 audio feed. Maybe they misunderstood him. I would like to believe that there was some

01:12:17.900 misunderstanding that can explain this. There wasn't. If not, oh, we've got a big problem on

01:12:22.840 our hands. I don't think it's with the American people because I don't think the American people

01:12:26.260 are with them. Well, but I think it's with those who have been elected and those who were in that

01:12:30.080 chamber last night. Let me give you, let me give you, um, some perspective. I gave a speech. I don't

01:12:36.760 even remember where it was about seven years ago. And I had done research, um, on the most vulnerable

01:12:45.540 among us and, and how Hitler, um, got there. Okay. How did you get to the gas chamber? How did you take a

01:12:53.740 group, a good group of, of people? Germans were not bad. They were a lot like us. I mean,

01:12:59.700 we were a very Germanic nation, especially back then. Um, they loved their families. Yeah. They

01:13:05.880 took care of their, their own children, their pets, their neighbors. Yeah. How did that happen?

01:13:11.600 So I started doing research and, uh, it started with a baby called baby. Now it started out as

01:13:16.860 compassion and, um, long story short, they started killing the most vulnerable. They started killing

01:13:23.600 babies. But when, when they did it, you had to have three signatures from three different doctors.

01:13:32.040 Um, and all the way to the end of the war, you still had to have three signatures. We've just

01:13:37.940 reduced that to one. Even the Nazis said three signatures are required for the death of, of an

01:13:45.620 individual. The next thing that happened, this is very early. They start killing these babies,

01:13:51.160 just like we're now talking about. They start killing these babies. The German people find 1.00

01:13:56.700 out. Now, these are the people who voted for Hitler. They voted for Hitler and they were all 0.87

01:14:03.560 socialist. The people stood up and push back. It's the only time that I can find where they

01:14:10.500 really push back and got Hitler to change, at least on the surface. And they push back and 0.65

01:14:16.700 they stood up in such force that they said, we, this is not us, that Hitler had to give

01:14:23.000 a speech where he said, you're exactly right. We're going to stop this. I'm stopping this

01:14:27.460 immediately. And that's when it went undercover. And he started the T4 program where they just

01:14:32.780 hid it from the people. But even the people who voted for Hitler stood up, where are we

01:14:38.340 Mike?

01:14:38.840 I hope we are those people who will push back and who will say, this is not okay. There

01:14:44.400 are some things that our laws should prohibit. One of the most fundamental rules of any civilized

01:14:50.280 society is that we prohibit the unlawful taking of a human life. So just to be clear again,

01:14:57.060 here, we are not talking in this instance about abortion. You and I both have views on abortion

01:15:02.060 that are different from what many Democrats in this country think. We're talking here about

01:15:07.520 a child who has been born, who has taken his or her first breath. If we, the people,

01:15:15.480 stand up strongly to our own government and make clear to our society, we want to protect

01:15:19.920 these individuals, which I believe the overwhelming majority of Americans, Republicans, Democrats,

01:15:24.320 and everything else believes, then I think we can stand up for life here.

01:15:28.420 So the problem is, and I saw it with these radicals in the Progressive Women's Caucus last night,

01:15:37.520 they mock it, and they roll their eyes when you bring it up. And what you're seeing on social

01:15:43.780 media is that the Democrats are saying, they're lying to you. That's not what we're talking about.

01:15:50.200 They're lying to you. We're talking about just cleaning up some language, old language. There's nothing new 1.00

01:15:57.840 in these bills, and they are denying it to their own people. And because we're so polarized,

01:16:04.720 the left is believing their own people who are lying to them.

01:16:11.360 But this, Glenn, is the kind of legal issue where one need not get wrapped around the axle. In other words,

01:16:17.480 this is the kind of legal issue where definitions can remain simple,

01:16:21.180 the English used can be plain, and where we can make clear. If what you're talking about

01:16:28.200 is terminating a pregnancy, there is a different way of phrasing that.

01:16:32.900 But if you're talking about wanting to make sure that you can kill a human life after that human

01:16:38.280 has been born and taken its first breath, that's something terribly different.

01:16:42.220 This is why Patty Murray in the Senate was so shameful, because she stood up after Ben Sasse said,

01:16:49.260 you cannot kill a baby after birth. You can't do it. And she said, this is such a sham there. This

01:16:57.180 is not what that bill means. And so I'm stopping the vote. Well, why would you do that? If that's

01:17:03.480 not what it means, you would stand up and say, that's not what it means. And to prove it, let's

01:17:07.900 take this vote, because we're all against it, too. That's exactly right. And that's one of the

01:17:13.660 reasons why we've got to keep pushing for a vote on Ben Sasse's bill. Ben is a hero for bringing this

01:17:20.400 issue forward, for filing that legislation. And I think we need to pass it. In order to pass it,

01:17:24.940 we've got to continue to demand, insist on a vote over and over and over again, because this is what

01:17:31.100 it means. It means exactly what it says it means. There is no ambiguity in that bill, and we need to

01:17:36.960 pass it. Okay, I've only got about a minute here before I have to take a break. Let me ask you this

01:17:42.240 last question. I believe the president is going to go for the national emergency thing and do something

01:17:48.300 to get something on the border. What does that mean? Is that even constitutional?

01:17:54.780 Whether he has authority to do this depends on what the source of his authority is. Under a line of

01:18:02.540 cases called Youngstown-Sheet-and-Tube versus Sawyer and Dames-and-Moore versus Regan, we have to look at

01:18:06.580 whether or not there's a statute that designates, that authorizes the president to take a particular

01:18:10.920 action. Is there one? I think there might be. If he chooses to take the appropriate path, I think

01:18:16.480 the most defensible path for him to do that is found in Title 10 of the U.S. Code, 10 U.S.C.,

01:18:22.000 Section 284B7. What that says essentially is that... I love you. Well, hey, you know... I know that's what

01:18:27.800 you do, and I love you. In my small town of Alpine, Utah, we speak of little else. This says basically that

01:18:34.240 the president may establish a fence along an international boundary where necessary to stop

01:18:40.840 the unlawful international trafficking of drugs. That, to me, appears to be pretty clear. Appears

01:18:47.300 to give him pretty clear authority. If he uses that, I think he's on fairly solid ground. I'd still

01:18:51.800 rather it go through Congress, but if he wants to use executive authority, that is one of the better

01:18:55.460 places to look. Are you advising him on this at all? No, I'm not. The White House has... I've reached out

01:19:02.440 of the White House multiple times. They're keeping their own counsel on this. I'm sure they've got

01:19:07.100 their reasons for doing that, but we'll see what happens. Mike, thank you so much for everything

01:19:11.480 that you do. And everybody I talked to last night were fans of yours. You're one of the few that are

01:19:17.900 really fighting the good fight and are not... haven't changed. And I appreciate that. God bless you.

01:19:24.960 Thank you, Glenn. Thank you. Senator Mike Lee.

01:19:27.220 I had dinner with some people last night. Some of them were bankers. Some of them were just

01:19:43.880 average citizens. And some of them were congressmen. And I will tell you that it was

01:19:50.320 split on whether or not we're going to see trouble with our banking system. And those who

01:19:56.960 understand what happens internationally affects us here, I think they understand that we are headed

01:20:03.340 for a real storm. If you are in a variable rate mortgage, you've got to get out. Get into a fixed

01:20:10.360 mortgage now. And I do believe that we are going to go through a period, I think, worse than 2008.

01:20:16.780 But I can be wrong, and I hope that I am. But this will mean that loans are going to be harder and

01:20:24.740 harder to get. And you do not want to be sitting with a variable mortgage. And if you need a loan

01:20:29.240 to buy a house, now is the time to get it. All you have to do is go to AmericanFinancing.net,

01:20:35.020 call 1-800-906-2440. You can get qualified in a 10-minute phone call. They have closings in as fast

01:20:44.460 as I think 10 days. So go to AmericanFinancing.net right now. They work for you, not for the bank.

01:20:51.020 1-800-906-2440. AmericanFinancing.net.

01:21:01.960 I thought an epic speech, an epic speech. And it was very Reagan-esque. If the president would have

01:21:13.000 been able to do something that only Ronald Reagan in my lifetime has been able to do,

01:21:17.720 deliver this speech like an actor, like Ronald Reagan could, his approval ratings on the speech

01:21:25.720 last night would have even been higher. As it stands, they're at about 75%. And I think it was

01:21:32.940 a very important speech and very well done by the president. I want to go over the highlights

01:21:38.760 of what made me feel that way when we come back.

01:21:45.300 My target pro, of course, uh, well, you talked about this yesterday on the, uh, the big radio

01:21:55.340 show, Glenn, uh, talking about how you want to keep yourself, uh, on the right side of, uh, of,

01:22:00.640 of your target practice and making sure you're a good shot. Uh, dry fire and not spending a lot

01:22:04.500 of money. Yeah. Dry firing. I target pro. I have this. I, I, I, the best thing you can do

01:22:10.780 is to dry fire. Uh, and it's a lot cheaper as well. Get 10% off the free shipping with the promo

01:22:17.020 code Glenn at I target pro is allows you to do target practice in your own home without any

01:22:23.180 ammunition. It is really, truly great. Really get it. I target pro.com I target pro.com get one of

01:22:31.480 these. So I ran into Nancy Pelosi and, uh, got a picture with Nancy Pelosi and, uh, let's just say

01:22:43.800 that she, she, she may have had some plastic surgery. I don't know if anybody has noticed

01:22:50.720 that, but I'll, I'm going to post this hour, the picture of me and Nancy Pelosi on my Twitter feed

01:22:56.560 and also Facebook, uh, and glenbeck.com, uh, some pictures from behind the scenes last night,

01:23:02.440 but that is the one thing that I'm, I'm, I'm most excited to share with you. My picture of Nancy

01:23:07.460 Pelosi and me together at the state of the union. Um, we are going to talk to you a little bit about

01:23:13.320 the state of the union and why I felt that was Reagan-esque when we begin this program in one minute.

01:23:21.300 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:23:27.480 Kids. I want you to learn this, that you do not get sick by being cold, by not wearing a hat,

01:23:33.520 by not wearing your gloves. That's that is not right. Your mother was wrong or is wrong. Maybe

01:23:39.800 still wrong. Now listen to your mom about everything, except when she says you're going to catch cold,

01:23:45.740 put on your coat. You need to say mom, scientifically, that is inaccurate. That's not how we get colds.

01:23:53.100 Actually, mom in the winter boy, I'd slap a kid down like that in the winter, mom, uh, we get colds

01:24:00.600 because we stay in and you make sure that the windows are all closed and we don't go outside.

01:24:06.460 So we don't get fresh air. So mom, if you don't want me to get sick, scientifically speaking,

01:24:12.380 the best thing you can do is go to filter by and change those air filters. Now you can have dad do

01:24:19.760 it or mom, because I love you, you're going to have to order the filters, but when they arrive,

01:24:25.580 I'll change the filters until that time. I'm going outside without a hat. This message brought to you

01:24:34.340 by Glenn Beck and filter by that doesn't necessarily agree with all of these statements, except that's not

01:24:42.300 why we get sick in the winter. We get sick because of all the crap we breathe in. So change your filter

01:24:47.860 now, do it the easy way and save 5% by getting on to, uh, you know, auto renewal, which will send you

01:24:54.640 the filters when they need to be changed in your home. Filter by filter by.com sign up. Never think

01:25:02.560 about it again. Filter by.com. This is the best crafted speech, uh, this president has ever given.

01:25:21.760 Uh, and it is one of the best crafted speeches I have heard, uh, for a very long, long time.

01:25:28.100 Maybe the best speech I've heard, uh, a president give at the state of the union since Reagan,

01:25:33.780 but I want you to listen to it because it's very Reagan ask. I'm going to read it to you. Um,

01:25:40.260 we meet tonight at a moment of unlimited potential. As we begin a new Congress, I stand here ready to

01:25:46.520 work with you to achieve historic breakthroughs for all Americans. To me, this line was so important

01:25:53.540 because people don't really understand. We really are on the threshold of an amazing new world,

01:26:01.380 a, a world that science has, uh, over promised and undelivered forever, but everything is about

01:26:10.780 to change and our potential now really truly is unlimited. Millions of our fellow citizens are

01:26:17.860 watching us now gathered in this great chamber, hoping that we will not govern as two parties,

01:26:23.200 but as one nation. Amen. The agenda I will lay out this evening is not a Republican agenda or a

01:26:30.540 democratic agenda. It is the agenda of the American people. This is one of the reasons why this has a

01:26:37.220 75% approval rating. Many of us campaigned on the same core promises to offend, defend American jobs,

01:26:45.200 demand fair trade for American workers to rebuild and revitalize our nation's infrastructure. I'm so sick

01:26:51.300 of that one to reduce the price of healthcare and prescription drugs. And I'm getting sick of that

01:26:55.940 one, uh, to create an immigration system that is safe, lawful, modern, and secure to pursue a foreign

01:27:03.800 policy that puts America's interests first. That is something that every American can agree on,

01:27:10.400 but the politicians don't allow us to, I'm riffing here. It's, this was such an important paragraph

01:27:18.460 for the American people, because that is what the American people are saying, Republican and Democrat.

01:27:25.600 There is a new opportunity in American politics. If we only have the courage to seize it, victory is not

01:27:34.700 winning for our party. Victory is winning for our country. Amen. This year, America will recognize

01:27:44.600 two important anniversaries to show us the majesty of America's mission and the power of American pride.

01:27:50.400 In June, we marked 75 years since the start of what Dwight D. Eisenhower called the Great Crusade,

01:27:56.260 the Allied liberation of Europe in World War II. On D-Day, 15,000 young Americans jumped from the sky,

01:28:04.100 60,000 more stormed in from the sea to save our civilization from tyranny. You hear the, the,

01:28:12.760 the broad brushstrokes of history. This is, this is an epic painting of America already. In 2019,

01:28:21.220 we also celebrate 50 years since brave young pilots flew a quarter of a million miles through space

01:28:28.560 to plant the American flag on the face of the moon. A half hour, a half century later,

01:28:34.480 we're joined by one of the Apollo 11 astronauts who planted that flag, Buzz Aldrin. This year,

01:28:40.560 American astronauts will go back to space on American rockets. You hear the language here? This is FDR at its best.

01:28:50.340 This is JFK and the moon launch. Um, we do these things because they're hard, not because they're easy.

01:28:58.500 And this is Ronald Reagan. In the 20th century, America saved freedom, transformed science and redefined the middle class

01:29:06.900 standard of living for an entire world to see. Now we must step boldly and bravely into the next chapter of this

01:29:15.380 American adventure. We must create a new standard of living for the 21st century. And that is something

01:29:22.300 that we do have to do riffing here again. This is what we, this is true. Everything that he is saying

01:29:31.100 here is true. We do have to create a new standard of living for the 21st century, because what we're

01:29:37.260 living under now is the, the living standard of the 20th century and the systems of the 20th century.

01:29:44.500 It is changing whether we like it or not. A promise of an amazing quality of life for all of our system,

01:29:52.500 uh, citizens is within our reach. How true this is. We can make our community safer, family stronger,

01:29:59.260 culture, richer, faith or faith deeper, and our middle class bigger and more prosperous than ever

01:30:04.920 before. But we must reject the politics of revenge. I thought that was powerful. The politics of revenge.

01:30:14.340 That is honestly social justice. There is no justice. There is equal justice, which means

01:30:21.680 everybody gets, you're in trouble for the same thing, no matter who you are. It's equal justice.

01:30:30.120 Social justice says, no, you have original sin. And so I've got to make it up to these people. And I'm

01:30:38.160 going to excuse this person. I mean, honestly, if I may be a little conspiratorial here, and I don't know if

01:30:46.500 this is true, but would it surprise you if the Democrats knew about the Klan picture and the blackface

01:30:54.740 picture of the governor of Virginia? They knew it. They knew about it a long time ago. They just didn't do anything

01:31:02.980 about it because he was a Democrat and he was useful. But the minute that that they he he came

01:31:11.320 out on abortion and he lost the abortion debate, they had to distance themselves from it. And they

01:31:18.580 were the ones that released that video. I mean, it may be a movie script, but it is plausible that that

01:31:26.140 happened. That's social justice. We'll hide whatever we need to hide. And we'll excuse whatever we need

01:31:32.600 to excuse until you've served your purpose. And then we're done with you. Together, we can break

01:31:40.140 decades of political stalemate, embrace the boundless potential of cooperation, compromise in the common

01:31:47.480 good. We can bridge old divisions, heal old wounds, build new coalitions, forge new solutions and unlock

01:31:55.340 the extraordinary promise of America's future. The decision is ours to make. We must choose between

01:32:03.780 greatness, gridlock, results or resistance, vision or vengeance, incredible progress or pointless

01:32:12.400 destruction. Tonight, I ask you to choose greatness. That's Kennedy. This is an absolutely brilliantly

01:32:22.800 written speech. This opening of this speech is what Americans are looking for. Americans are looking

01:32:30.340 for someone with a grand vision of tomorrow. I've been saying, who is articulating the vision of we've got

01:32:38.240 to go to the moon? Who is articulating who we really are in an aspirational way? Well, last night,

01:32:48.260 it was Donald Trump. And this isn't half as good as what came at the end. And I'll share that with you

01:32:58.080 in one minute.

01:32:59.540 I want to tell you a little bit about our sponsor. It's Liberty Safe from LibertySafe.com. Liberty Safe,

01:33:12.680 they are not just for storing guns and ammo, but boy, oh boy, do they make a great guns and ammo safe.

01:33:18.100 They are perfect for storing anything that you want to keep safe, all documents. They've invented this

01:33:24.120 new fire seal that works wonders. I mean, we've seen Liberty Safes in pictures of houses in California

01:33:32.080 where they have burnt down to the ground. I mean, there is nothing standing but the chimney

01:33:36.520 and the Liberty Safe. It's incredible to see. We have seen these things picked up in Oklahoma

01:33:43.320 and thrown out of a house with a tornado, thrown over a block away from the house that they belong to,

01:33:50.560 and they are still upright. They are still sealed and not, not able to, to open unless you have the

01:33:59.720 combination. They are remarkable safes. You want the best to store your medication, your guns,

01:34:06.960 your papers, whatever it is that you have Liberty Safe. They're the best built safes on the planet.

01:34:12.800 It's LibertySafe.com. I want you to go there and check out their videos and just see the tests that

01:34:18.880 they have run on these things because they blow them up and they, they drop, you know,

01:34:23.980 concrete blocks on them from, you know, two stories up. I think that's, I think they only build these

01:34:29.480 because they want to test them, honestly, because it's such a fun guy kind of thing to do. Anyway,

01:34:34.340 LibertySafe.com. Go now to LibertySafe.com. We pause for 10 seconds. Station ID.

01:34:39.600 LibertySafe.com. This speech was so brilliantly written. If you look at it, he goes from, uh,

01:35:04.300 big ask to giant hug, big ask, big hug. He is reaching out, uh, to the left, but it was,

01:35:13.500 it was not a, a boorish speech. And it wasn't a speech of, I'm just going to say, I'm going to do

01:35:20.860 a bunch of stuff, all the stuff that he proposed that the left would like, he will do. Um, but I

01:35:28.160 don't think they're going to take him up on it. They're not. I just don't, but this is the speech.

01:35:33.280 I have waited for. This is the, this is the message that America has been looking for.

01:35:40.180 Listen to this. When American soldiers set out beneath the dark skies over the English channel

01:35:46.520 in the early hours of D-Day, 1944, they were just young men of 18 and 19 hurtling on a fragile

01:35:54.560 landing craft towards the most momentous battle in the history of war. They didn't know if they

01:36:01.460 would survive the hour. They didn't know if they would grow old, but they did know that America

01:36:08.060 needed to prevail. Their cause was this nation and the generations yet to be born.

01:36:16.000 Why would they do that? Well, they did it for America. They did it for us.

01:36:27.420 Everything that has come since our triumph over communism, our giant leaps of science and discovery,

01:36:34.960 our unrivaled progress towards equality and justice. All of it is possible to the thanks,

01:36:42.380 to the blood and the tears and the courage and the vision of Americans who came before us.

01:36:48.680 Think of this Capitol. Think of this very chamber where lawmakers before, before you,

01:36:55.500 they voted to end slavery. They voted to build the railways and the highways to defeat fascism,

01:37:03.600 to secure civil rights, to face down an evil empire from here. 0.63

01:37:13.060 Tonight, we have legislators from across the republic. You have come from the rocky shores of Maine

01:37:22.100 and the volcanic peaks of Hawaii, from the snowy woods of Wisconsin to the red deserts of Arizona,

01:37:28.840 from the green farms of Kentucky and the golden beaches of California. Together, we represent the

01:37:38.320 most extraordinary nation in all of history. So now what will we do in this moment? How will we be remembered?

01:37:51.060 I ask you, the men and women of this Congress, look at the opportunities before us.

01:38:00.600 Our most thrilling achievements are still ahead. Our most exciting journeys still await.

01:38:07.480 Our biggest victories are still to come. We haven't even begun to dream yet.

01:38:13.440 We have to choose whether we are defined by our differences or whether we dare to transcend them.

01:38:27.600 We must choose whether we squander our inheritance or whether we will proudly declare that we are Americans.

01:38:36.160 We do the incredible. We defy the impossible. We conquer the unknown.

01:38:43.440 This is the time to reignite the American imagination.

01:38:48.420 This is the time to search for the tallest summit and to set our sights on the brightest star.

01:38:56.520 This is the time to rekindle the bonds of love and loyalty and memory that link us together as citizens,

01:39:05.560 as neighbors, and as patriots.

01:39:09.500 This is our future.

01:39:14.480 This is our fate.

01:39:17.420 And it is our choice to make.

01:39:21.320 I am asking you today to choose greatness.

01:39:26.280 No matter the trials we face, no matter the challenges to come,

01:39:30.140 we must go forward together.

01:39:32.580 We must keep America first in our hearts.

01:39:36.660 We must keep freedom alive in our souls.

01:39:40.060 And we must always keep faith in America's destiny.

01:39:44.260 That one nation under God must be the hope and the promise and the light and the glory among all of the nations of the world.

01:39:55.200 Thank you.

01:39:59.880 God bless you.

01:40:02.520 And God bless the United States of America.

01:40:07.580 Holy cow, is that a great speech.

01:40:10.920 Holy cow, is that what America is looking for?

01:40:15.920 You know, the one thing that people in the mainstream media will not tell you is the Republicans did not elect Donald Trump by themselves.

01:40:27.960 20% of the people who voted for Donald Trump, 20% had voted for Obama at least once.

01:40:36.640 It was Democrats.

01:40:42.120 It was the Democrat who is a hard-working American who does not believe in all of this claptrap.

01:40:49.780 They believe in this stuff.

01:40:51.700 And they haven't found anyone to articulate it.

01:40:54.960 But they saw in him somebody who was willing to stand up, as he did last night, and say,

01:41:01.540 We are not a socialist nation.

01:41:06.640 We will never be a socialist nation.

01:41:12.180 We are a nation of dreamers and doers.

01:41:16.440 We are a nation made up of individuals.

01:41:20.560 We are not some collective.

01:41:26.280 That's what people liked about Donald Trump, is he had the balls to say it.

01:41:31.580 And you may not like, and I may not like, the things that he says, some of the things that he does, some of the things that he tweets.

01:41:40.920 But where else are you finding someone who is articulating the American vision?

01:41:52.120 Because you're not finding that in Kamala.

01:41:55.200 You're not finding that in Cory Booker.

01:41:57.840 You're not finding that in Ocasio-Cortez.

01:42:02.900 They are not articulating an American vision.

01:42:08.100 They are articulating a South American vision, a Cuban vision, a Venezuelan vision, even a Mexican vision, at best a Canadian vision.

01:42:19.440 But it's not an American vision.

01:42:24.820 And I'm sorry, but we're not Canada.

01:42:29.160 We're not Sweden.

01:42:31.580 We're not Mexico.

01:42:32.800 And we're certainly not Cuba.

01:42:34.780 And we never have wanted to be that.

01:42:37.720 But who's articulating this?

01:42:44.380 If Donald Trump stays in this vein, the economy holds together, this president will be re-elected.

01:43:00.240 But it's going to be hard for him to do it.

01:43:03.080 Because I sat in the gallery yesterday.

01:43:07.840 I sat in the gallery yesterday, and I watched the reaction from the progressive caucus, really led by Ocasio-Cortez.

01:43:22.760 I mean, she has got that Congress wrapped around her finger. 1.00

01:43:28.040 Everybody's got to deal with her.

01:43:29.980 And she was calling the shots last night.

01:43:32.640 And she was brilliant in how she knows how to work the press. 1.00

01:43:40.180 But those are the two visions.

01:43:43.780 The socialist vision.

01:43:46.640 The vision that we can kill babies after they're born.

01:43:51.300 It's not hyperbole.

01:43:54.520 Or the vision that I just laid out for you.

01:43:58.720 Which will it be?

01:44:00.120 They're going to choose obstruction.

01:44:02.640 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:45:16.240 Just a, I guess, a fan update, if you will.

01:45:20.640 If you've been a fan of the Blaze and been with us for a while,

01:45:26.200 you know that Doc Thompson was with us for many years.

01:45:30.400 He just left over the summer to start his own company.

01:45:33.000 Um, he did the morning Blaze.

01:45:36.320 And, um, we found out late last night that he was out jogging in the Fort Worth area.

01:45:43.880 And, um, uh, he was jogging, um, next to or on the railroad tracks.

01:45:53.080 And he had his earbuds in.

01:45:55.700 And, uh, he was hit by a train last night and killed.

01:46:03.900 Uh, he, uh, it has come as a real shock, uh, to all of us who worked at the Blaze in Dallas.

01:46:12.040 Um, because he was a co-worker for many years.

01:46:16.600 And, um, he was just, Doc was, uh, he was funny.

01:46:24.400 He was kind.

01:46:25.520 He was, um, gracious.

01:46:28.520 He cared about, um, so much.

01:46:32.880 He cared about, uh, the Mercury One, um, um, efforts that we would make.

01:46:42.160 Uh, he cared about the clients that were, were on, uh, his show.

01:46:48.380 And he helped start businesses or, you know, businesses that were just getting started.

01:46:54.360 He helped, um, grow.

01:46:56.860 Um, I've never seen somebody, um, that worked so tireless, tirelessly to help entrepreneurs.

01:47:06.940 Um, and it was remarkable.

01:47:10.680 He was an optimist, uh, by nature.

01:47:15.040 Um, he was an entrepreneur and entrepreneurs, uh, sometimes don't, you know, they just get

01:47:25.480 to a point where they're like, I'm going to work for myself.

01:47:27.780 And I applauded, uh, Doc, uh, when he, uh, when he left, um, because he started his own

01:47:38.700 business and that's exactly what I did.

01:47:41.100 Um, unfortunately he put every dime that he had and he bet on the future of him himself

01:47:51.960 and, um, what's called Mojo 5-0 and it had just gotten started.

01:47:58.900 Uh, and he was really the linchpin and we wish everybody at Mojo 5-0, um, success.

01:48:06.360 And we hope that, uh, things go well for you and that you don't let this stop you.

01:48:13.600 Um, but I'm concerned today about his family.

01:48:18.580 He has two young kids in the house.

01:48:20.980 He has a, he has an older teenage son that lives, uh, up in Ohio.

01:48:25.940 Uh, and so he's, he's leaving behind, uh, a devastated, uh, wife, uh, and, and three children

01:48:37.080 and, and, and no money.

01:48:41.240 Now his wife is a, is a news anchor.

01:48:44.060 Um, and so she, you know, has, uh, the ability to at least keep food on the table. 1.00

01:48:52.020 Um, but things are, it just, I, I lived through losing a parent when I was a teenager and I don't

01:49:03.940 think you ever really heal from that.

01:49:08.140 Yeah.

01:49:08.660 So they've, they've started to go fund me page and we'll tweet that out, put that at

01:49:12.940 glenbeck.com.

01:49:13.940 But we urge you, if you ever heard him, you were ever inspired by him, you, uh, ever laughed

01:49:22.700 with him, uh, please, uh, help his family out.

01:49:26.660 And our, our deepest condolences go to his family.

01:49:34.380 I, I, such a, uh, senseless loss, such a senseless loss.

01:49:44.660 Doc Thomas, Doc Thompson.

01:49:46.620 Yeah.

01:49:47.120 It was great to know you.

01:49:49.120 It was, uh, that's just a crushing one.

01:49:51.080 Uh, but, uh, the audience as they tend to do have stepped up in a big way.

01:49:54.040 I mean, I think their original goal was 20,000, uh, and they've already raised almost 40,000.

01:49:59.380 Um, so I mean, you know, Doc had a lot of big fans and it's just a terrible, terrible story.

01:50:04.400 Um, and, uh, we will make sure we get the social, but we'll hit all of this on social and make

01:50:09.620 sure you know where to go.

01:50:10.540 And his site again is mojo five Oh.com.

01:50:13.040 I know there's a lot of really good people over there.

01:50:14.960 Uh, good friends of, of, of us and the network that are over there trying to deal with all this.

01:50:19.600 And, and of course his family as well.

01:50:21.720 It's just a terrible, terrible day.

01:50:23.120 I mean, it's just, uh, it's just awful.

01:50:25.980 So, uh, it's, uh, I'm on the social now.

01:50:28.460 If you can, if you can donate, uh, it would be great if you could.

01:50:32.080 I, I, I want to express something personally, uh, personal that, um, um, I've been thinking

01:50:41.960 about and, um, you know, Steven Crowder is, uh, going through real health problems and,

01:50:50.600 uh, and, uh, and as Steven and I talk, it, uh, we, we have the same symptoms and we have

01:50:58.780 many of the same diagnosis.

01:51:01.160 Um, he has adrenal exhaustion.

01:51:03.100 And I have adrenal exhaustion.

01:51:04.480 Um, uh, and that comes from, I am not able to make cortisol anymore.

01:51:13.120 And I, and it comes from, um, your, you know, you just, your body's just making, uh, adrenaline

01:51:21.980 all the time.

01:51:23.520 Um, and, uh, it's, it's just go, go, go, go, go.

01:51:27.760 And over time, your body just says, I can't do it anymore.

01:51:31.480 Uh, and it is horrible.

01:51:33.940 It is horrible.

01:51:35.200 And when Steven, um, started going through this, cause I just thought it was me.

01:51:41.720 I thought it was my, you know, the way I've taken care of myself and everything else.

01:51:46.340 Um, but it is more than that.

01:51:48.560 It is, uh, I used to say this all the time when I was in New York, I can't do this anymore

01:51:53.380 because I'm looking at the news of the day and it's like, I'm experiencing watching somebody

01:52:00.260 choke my child to death every day.

01:52:03.660 And the adrenaline that it takes to, uh, that you burn just looking at this and trying

01:52:10.160 to find out ways to get people to understand it, um, the, the adrenaline you burn just from

01:52:17.940 always constantly being under attack.

01:52:20.580 I used to say, this is killing me.

01:52:23.460 Uh, and it literally was, and there are people like Steven Crowder who are giving everything.

01:52:33.900 They're giving everything to what they believe in.

01:52:37.240 Um, and we're doing it because we do believe in it, not for getting rich or anything else.

01:52:43.840 And there's a ton of people like this and you might even be one of them.

01:52:48.660 Um, but I, I, I warn you, you know, we need fresh troops and it's why I'm so excited about

01:52:57.980 the blaze and CRTV merger, because there are so many young people in the blaze and so many

01:53:03.840 young people in CRTV and those are the new fresh troops.

01:53:08.460 They are, nobody can carry this, uh, by themselves.

01:53:12.620 Um, and the ones who are trying or have tried, uh, they are, they're going to, they'll be dead.

01:53:22.220 They'll be dead.

01:53:23.900 Um, it's too much of a load to bear by yourself.

01:53:28.460 And it's, it's why we really need to come together.

01:53:33.240 We really need to work with each other.

01:53:36.300 We need to hold each other up.

01:53:37.900 We need to stop being competitors.

01:53:42.000 Stop being competitors on so much stuff.

01:53:45.780 Competition is good, but I don't care if you're working for another company, a company.

01:53:51.980 Even I will help you any way, any way I can, and we need to be this way because we're not

01:54:00.680 enemies.

01:54:01.900 We're both striving for the same thing.

01:54:04.800 Unless what you're trying to do is just become famous, then we're not striving for the same

01:54:11.100 thing.

01:54:11.460 But if you believe the things that you're saying and you believe that the country is in real

01:54:17.660 trouble, the whole world is in real trouble and we could lose the basic rights of, of

01:54:25.480 all humans, not just here, who's going to step up the plate?

01:54:30.080 Who's going to, who's going to take down China and Russia?

01:54:33.200 Who's going to do that?

01:54:34.420 If not us, who's going to make sure that people were not perfect, but damn, look at what we've

01:54:43.120 done.

01:54:43.720 Look at what we've done.

01:54:45.900 Look how good things have gotten for women in the last 40 years. 1.00

01:54:52.680 Yes.

01:54:53.300 And it's not perfect today, but it's also not what people say it is.

01:55:01.740 It's much better.

01:55:03.820 And we're fighting over nonsense.

01:55:06.520 We're fighting many times over lies or misunderstandings.

01:55:11.960 I ask that you would pray for everybody who is in this business, who is fighting.

01:55:21.500 Uh, we cannot lose a single man on, on the line and, uh, and those of us who are on the

01:55:34.380 line do need to sit down from time to time and trust that others will pick up the slack.

01:55:43.180 And I appreciate your prayers, your thoughts, um, and your partnership.

01:55:51.180 If you're a partner with the blaze.com, thank you.

01:55:55.460 Uh, I haven't asked people to subscribe to the blaze for a while because I haven't been really

01:55:59.800 proud of what we were doing and I wanted to get it right.

01:56:03.180 I wanted to fix it before I asked you to come back and try us, but come back and try us.

01:56:09.140 We are still not perfect.

01:56:10.440 We're still making mistakes.

01:56:11.600 We made tons of mistakes last night, but we are doing a good job and we're doing things

01:56:18.880 that people are not doing elsewhere.

01:56:22.120 Um, I, I, I, I can't say Franklin's warning enough.

01:56:36.860 We all better hang together or we are certainly hang separately.

01:56:41.800 I was in that chamber last night.

01:56:43.960 They are not fooling around.

01:56:46.340 All right.

01:56:47.080 Let me tell you about our sponsor, the staff hour.

01:56:48.760 It is X chair, X chair.

01:56:51.540 All office chairs are not the same.

01:56:53.740 And don't I know it because I've been in our Washington bureau and this is the furthest

01:56:59.300 thing from an X chair.

01:57:00.840 I don't even know how they can call this thing a chair.

01:57:04.280 It is like, uh, I don't know a log maybe, and not even a comfortable log.

01:57:11.320 Maybe logs with spikes in it is the worst damn chair I have ever sat in.

01:57:17.400 Maybe it's because I'm used to the X chair.

01:57:20.000 X chair is the most comfortable chair.

01:57:22.700 I'm not kidding.

01:57:24.040 When you sit back in an X chair, you've got it adjusted right for your back and you sit

01:57:29.440 back in an X chair.

01:57:30.760 And I know this sounds crazy because it's an office chair, but it is as comfortable as

01:57:35.920 any recliner I have ever sat in.

01:57:38.880 Honestly, I mean, you put these things in movie theaters and I would be thrilled.

01:57:43.260 They are so comfortable and it's an office chair.

01:57:47.040 Now you can get the, you know, the super X chair has all the adjustments.

01:57:50.960 You know, I think they're going to take this one to Mars with Elon Musk because it's, it's

01:57:54.620 got everything.

01:57:55.460 And then they also have the X chair basic, which gives you still the critical magic, you

01:57:59.580 know, magic of the, uh, uh, the, uh, dynamic, uh, variable lumbar, the DVL.

01:58:05.900 Um, and that gives you all the support you need, all the bells and whistles that you really

01:58:10.160 need and use every day that comes with it, except it's at a much, much better price.

01:58:14.600 It's the X basic.

01:58:16.100 So just go check out all of the different designs and everything else.

01:58:19.200 It's xchairbeck.com.

01:58:21.540 Be in your office chair and be comfortable.

01:58:51.740 Here we go.

01:58:52.420 Well, there's a couple of things that, uh, I'd like to get to first.

01:59:00.020 Can we just fan Jones and his take on the speech last night?

01:59:04.420 I saw this as a, as a psychotically incoherent speech with cookies and dog poop.

01:59:11.220 He tries to put together in the same speech, these warm, uh, kind things about humanitarianism

01:59:17.920 and caring about children.

01:59:19.140 At the same time, he is demonizing, uh, uh, uh, people who are immigrants in a way that

01:59:24.720 was appalling.

01:59:25.360 Demonizing child trafficking.

01:59:26.680 No, no, hold on a second.

01:59:27.460 Hold on a second.

01:59:28.200 There were people in that gallery.

01:59:29.460 Okay, I can't listen anymore.

01:59:30.720 This is, this is ridiculous.

01:59:33.020 This is ridiculous.

01:59:34.200 He was so very clear on his speech that it was not, it was drugs.

01:59:41.480 It was sex traffickers.

01:59:43.840 Uh, it was criminals that are coming across the border and we want to make it easier for

01:59:51.060 legal immigration.

01:59:52.840 He made that very clear last night.

01:59:55.820 This is so ridiculous.

01:59:58.020 And then Cortez, who I saw last night, uh, you know, taking selfies during the speech.

02:00:04.720 Here's what she said.

02:00:05.740 I think that, uh, the president was unprepared.

02:00:09.160 I don't think that he did his homework.

02:00:11.160 I, you know, we've seen States of the union addresses delivered, uh, delivered by many presidents,

02:00:17.860 Democrat and Republican.

02:00:19.100 They almost always have substantive policies that are offered.

02:00:23.860 I, I agree with Senator Kovachar there that there was no, stop.

02:00:27.900 I can't.

02:00:28.500 You want to talk about being unprepared, uh, you as a Congress person, uh, that, that might

02:00:34.580 be, please don't give us the opening to talk about unprepared, uh, Ocasio-Cortez.

02:00:40.300 Can I ask a question about they're all dressing in white thing too?

02:00:43.960 Um, yes.

02:00:44.580 So, you know, the idea is that the suffragettes, they're doing it for that. 0.86

02:00:48.020 Hey, you know, you, we used to not be able to vote.

02:00:49.660 Now I can vote.

02:00:50.340 We used not to be able to in Congress and now we're in Congress.

02:00:52.840 We are women and we're here standing up against all the stereotypes that people have for us.

02:00:57.600 And that's why we're making this statement with a fashion choice.

02:01:01.440 Like, you're all dressing up the same to tell us that you're not, there's no stereo.

02:01:08.200 I don't even understand it.

02:01:09.400 And it's like, so we, we walked out of the, we walked out of the state of the union and

02:01:15.860 I met with my security detail and because there were so many people there last night, uh, I

02:01:21.160 had three of my guys with me, uh, but there was, uh, you know, they, they weren't with

02:01:26.840 me at all in the Capitol and they were in the Capitol in another area.

02:01:30.260 Uh, well, they ran into these women coming off an elevator and one of the women, women 1.00

02:01:35.320 said, wow, you guys look like you're part of the force from star Wars.

02:01:39.760 Cause they were all wearing black suits.

02:01:41.400 And I'm so mad at them today because one of them wanted to say, yeah, well, you guys

02:01:46.200 look like your storm troopers and maybe you should go back and watch star Wars.

02:01:50.200 Cause I think you don't really know which is the good side and which is the bad side, but,

02:01:58.840 uh, it was a interesting thing to declare women power through fashion. 0.99
