00:00:05.860 Glenn Beck

00:00:07.820 Who is running Seattle?

00:00:11.900 I really want to know. Who

00:00:13.700 is running Seattle?

00:00:15.960 Is it a bunch of former

00:00:17.860 Iron Curtain bureaucrats?

00:00:21.160 Is it

00:00:22.080 five-year-olds?

00:00:24.280 Or is it morons?

00:00:26.360 It could be a combination. I'm not

00:00:28.140 sure.

00:00:30.000 Last month, the genius

00:00:32.820 that is running Seattle

00:00:34.400 decided to tax

00:00:36.580 its biggest assets,

00:00:38.440 its businesses.

00:00:41.040 Well, that was four

00:00:42.600 weeks ago. Do you remember how old

00:00:44.660 you were four weeks ago? Seattle

00:00:46.820 unanimously approved

00:00:48.640 the so-called head tax on big

00:00:50.640 companies like Amazon and Starbucks.

00:00:53.100 And this was just to, quote,

00:00:54.640 solve the homeless crisis.

00:00:57.280 Seattle has the

00:00:57.980 third highest homeless rate

00:01:00.400 in the nation.

00:01:00.940 Now, that's saying something

00:01:02.380 because it's always

00:01:03.900 rainy and damp

00:01:05.440 and nasty

00:01:06.520 outside.

00:01:08.060 So, you have

00:01:09.720 no home

00:01:11.620 and you're living

00:01:12.920 in Seattle?

00:01:14.360 The head tax

00:01:15.760 was set

00:01:16.440 to begin

00:01:18.440 in January.

00:01:19.960 It would have collected

00:01:21.180 taxes from

00:01:22.640 all of their biggest

00:01:23.580 businesses.

00:01:24.120 first, the city

00:01:25.880 said, we're going to

00:01:26.440 have a $500

00:01:27.040 tax for, you know,

00:01:28.540 full-time employees.

00:01:29.880 Then they walked

00:01:30.760 that back to

00:01:31.460 $275

00:01:33.200 for every employee.

00:01:34.920 Oh, well, that's

00:01:35.660 great.

00:01:36.640 The city said,

00:01:37.360 that's going to raise

00:01:38.080 about $48 million

00:01:39.140 and that's going to

00:01:40.860 really go a long

00:01:42.000 way to solve

00:01:42.620 our homeless problem.

00:01:43.860 Guarantee,

00:01:44.460 it wouldn't have.

00:01:45.540 They already spend

00:01:46.760 $78 million

00:01:48.200 on homelessness

00:01:49.360 every single year.

00:01:51.120 I'm sorry,

00:01:52.340 this year,

00:01:53.660 so far,

00:01:55.460 they have spent

00:01:56.320 $78 million.

00:01:58.180 Now, media reports

00:01:59.420 are pinning the city's

00:02:00.820 change of heart

00:02:01.880 on the businesses

00:02:04.020 going,

00:02:04.720 ah, hello?

00:02:07.140 Did I mention

00:02:08.220 that they've

00:02:08.860 changed their mind

00:02:10.240 on this?

00:02:12.020 Multiple businesses,

00:02:13.520 Amazon,

00:02:14.060 Starbucks,

00:02:14.620 have all sponsored

00:02:15.320 a campaign

00:02:16.020 called No Tax

00:02:17.560 on Jobs

00:02:18.300 to get the referendum

00:02:19.400 on the ballot

00:02:20.280 this November.

00:02:21.120 that would get

00:02:21.620 rid of the tax.

00:02:22.900 Well, it looks like

00:02:23.800 now the referendum

00:02:24.580 is not going

00:02:25.960 to be necessary.

00:02:27.500 The Democratic mayor

00:02:28.520 said the city council

00:02:29.560 heard the protests

00:02:30.580 from the companies

00:02:31.360 and don't want to

00:02:32.460 engage in a prolonged,

00:02:33.840 expensive political

00:02:34.840 fight over the next

00:02:35.800 five months

00:02:36.440 that will do nothing

00:02:37.720 to tackle our

00:02:38.760 urgent housing

00:02:39.560 and homelessness

00:02:40.240 crisis.

00:02:41.140 So yesterday,

00:02:42.960 the Seattle City

00:02:43.900 Council,

00:02:45.460 they voted to go,

00:02:48.500 oh,

00:02:49.100 um,

00:02:49.720 yeah,

00:02:50.320 we're not going

00:02:51.100 to do that.

00:02:53.240 Now,

00:02:53.300 one city council

00:02:54.140 member who is

00:02:54.980 a socialist

00:02:55.860 called the repeal

00:02:57.380 of the tax

00:02:58.100 capitulation

00:02:59.180 to bullying

00:03:00.080 by Amazon

00:03:00.880 and other

00:03:01.700 big businesses.

00:03:02.520 she said,

00:03:03.880 it's a complete

00:03:05.220 betrayal

00:03:05.820 of the working

00:03:06.940 class.

00:03:07.980 Oh,

00:03:08.620 my gosh,

00:03:09.540 I want to break

00:03:10.160 out in the Soviet 0.53

00:03:10.860 national anthem.

00:03:12.800 Um,

00:03:13.980 actually,

00:03:14.740 I hate to break

00:03:15.560 this to her,

00:03:16.100 but this was,

00:03:17.460 this tax

00:03:18.100 was a betrayal

00:03:19.900 to the working

00:03:20.540 people.

00:03:20.980 the showdown

00:03:22.580 in Seattle

00:03:23.100 is a classic

00:03:24.340 case of progressive

00:03:25.640 big government

00:03:26.280 trying to throw

00:03:27.280 money at a problem

00:03:28.140 like homelessness

00:03:28.900 with a strategy

00:03:30.120 that actually

00:03:30.940 hurts a company's

00:03:32.680 ability to hire,

00:03:34.340 which would cause 0.82

00:03:35.240 layoffs and thus

00:03:37.060 say it with me

00:03:38.260 more

00:03:39.120 homelessness.

00:03:41.180 If you're spending

00:03:42.260 $78 million a year

00:03:43.640 on homelessness

00:03:44.300 this year,

00:03:45.040 it might be time

00:03:46.420 to reassess

00:03:47.040 your spending

00:03:47.880 habits.

00:03:48.420 the top three

00:03:49.940 U.S. cities

00:03:50.520 with the largest

00:03:51.660 homeless populations,

00:03:53.060 New York,

00:03:53.560 Los Angeles,

00:03:54.140 and Seattle.

00:03:55.740 When will the

00:03:56.760 voters in those

00:03:57.400 cities realize

00:03:58.200 that there might

00:04:00.080 be a slight

00:04:00.980 correlation

00:04:01.600 between the

00:04:03.240 progressive

00:04:03.800 government

00:04:04.500 and the

00:04:06.060 homeless problem?

00:04:11.660 It's Wednesday,

00:04:12.900 June 13th.

00:04:14.120 This is the

00:04:14.920 Glenn Beck

00:04:15.320 program.

00:04:16.020 I have a feeling

00:04:16.900 it's not going to

00:04:17.500 be anytime soon.

00:04:19.020 So if you are

00:04:20.340 living, let's say,

00:04:21.640 in San Francisco,

00:04:23.080 you gotta love it,

00:04:24.480 right?

00:04:25.020 You gotta love it.

00:04:27.340 It is like one of

00:04:28.280 the number one cities

00:04:29.260 where people are

00:04:30.080 screaming to get out.

00:04:32.920 If you poll the

00:04:34.520 people all around

00:04:35.880 the country,

00:04:37.020 San Francisco,

00:04:37.660 I think,

00:04:37.960 is number one

00:04:38.480 with people like,

00:04:39.120 if I could move,

00:04:39.800 I would move in a

00:04:40.460 heartbeat.

00:04:41.800 Now, that's saying

00:04:42.660 something because

00:04:43.520 San Francisco,

00:04:44.640 I believe,

00:04:45.800 is the greatest

00:04:47.000 city in all of

00:04:48.840 America.

00:04:50.180 Really?

00:04:50.780 Oh, yeah.

00:04:51.380 I do.

00:04:52.460 Have you just

00:04:53.360 visited the one

00:04:54.160 city or?

00:04:55.520 San Francisco?

00:04:56.480 Is that the one

00:04:57.000 you've visited?

00:04:57.280 That's the one I've

00:04:57.800 been to.

00:04:58.240 I haven't even

00:04:59.260 really been to

00:04:59.800 Dallas here.

00:05:01.100 No, I just think

00:05:01.820 city.

00:05:02.200 It's a great city.

00:05:03.520 It has everything.

00:05:04.600 It has water.

00:05:05.460 It's close to

00:05:06.100 mountains.

00:05:06.800 It's moderate in

00:05:07.880 temperature.

00:05:08.980 It's very,

00:05:09.800 to be incredibly

00:05:11.740 progressive sounding,

00:05:12.900 it's very walkable.

00:05:14.360 It's a very walkable

00:05:15.160 city.

00:05:15.540 Shut up. 0.95

00:05:16.220 It is.

00:05:16.600 It's one of those

00:05:17.340 you can go on vacation

00:05:18.140 and you just kind of

00:05:18.740 walk around and you

00:05:19.420 get to stuff all over

00:05:20.160 the place.

00:05:20.680 It's cool.

00:05:21.340 It's a great,

00:05:22.640 great city.

00:05:23.740 It's really a great

00:05:24.500 city.

00:05:25.160 They have almost

00:05:26.260 completely destroyed

00:05:27.400 that as a livable

00:05:28.500 city because the

00:05:31.240 homelessness,

00:05:32.640 they're militant.

00:05:33.780 They're militant.

00:05:35.300 And they're currently

00:05:36.380 crapping all over the

00:05:38.160 streets of San

00:05:39.700 Francisco.

00:05:40.080 Well, you're just

00:05:40.640 saying that because we

00:05:41.720 were there fairly

00:05:42.620 recently and there's a

00:05:43.400 lot of crap in the

00:05:44.020 streets.

00:05:44.520 That's just why you're

00:05:45.280 saying that.

00:05:45.540 Yeah, and when you

00:05:45.800 say crap in the

00:05:46.580 streets, we actually

00:05:47.580 mean fecal matter.

00:05:49.000 Right.

00:05:49.260 And not from dogs.

00:05:50.560 Human fecal matter.

00:05:52.960 This is, and by the

00:05:54.000 way, we were there

00:05:54.700 for the Super Bowl.

00:05:56.360 Yeah.

00:05:56.760 It was cleaned up.

00:05:57.980 Yeah.

00:05:58.300 Super Bowl cities tend

00:05:59.560 to clean themselves up

00:06:00.700 when lots of visitors

00:06:01.500 come.

00:06:02.600 It was, it was still,

00:06:04.500 I mean, I don't know

00:06:05.020 if they made a statement

00:06:05.640 they decided to go the

00:06:06.340 other way.

00:06:07.160 Right.

00:06:07.520 And add more fecal

00:06:08.600 matter to the streets.

00:06:09.700 Could we get people,

00:06:10.660 could, look, could the

00:06:11.300 average citizen just start

00:06:12.440 crapping in the streets

00:06:13.280 just this week?

00:06:14.340 I mean, it was bizarre.

00:06:15.680 We want to prove a point

00:06:16.460 to all these outsiders.

00:06:17.460 Yeah, it's, it's bizarre.

00:06:18.840 But that's what you're,

00:06:19.860 what you're missing here

00:06:21.240 is yes, they're

00:06:21.920 progressive.

00:06:22.920 Okay.

00:06:23.080 Yes.

00:06:23.420 Okay.

00:06:23.820 Occasionally they

00:06:24.340 pass some left-wing

00:06:25.460 policies.

00:06:26.180 Right.

00:06:26.480 Occasionally.

00:06:26.960 But they give choices to

00:06:28.780 their constituents.

00:06:29.640 They do.

00:06:29.920 They're pro.

00:06:31.120 They do.

00:06:31.620 Choice.

00:06:33.060 Amen, brother.

00:06:34.320 Now listen, if you're

00:06:35.880 living in San Francisco,

00:06:37.220 you're dealing with a

00:06:38.800 massive homeless problem.

00:06:40.580 You're, you're, you're

00:06:41.760 dealing with prices that

00:06:44.160 are unheard of.

00:06:45.880 It is absolutely, at the

00:06:48.640 same time, it's the

00:06:49.980 greatest city.

00:06:50.820 It is the most unlivable

00:06:52.560 city in America.

00:06:55.180 It's just, you cannot afford

00:06:57.740 to live there.

00:06:58.820 They don't make it easy.

00:06:59.920 Well, no, no, no, but

00:07:02.340 that's why they're going to

00:07:03.240 make sure, you know, they

00:07:03.900 want to make it better for

00:07:04.620 kids.

00:07:05.100 You know, this is all about

00:07:06.080 the children, as you know,

00:07:08.020 these, these tax increases

00:07:09.880 are always about the

00:07:11.720 children.

00:07:12.420 They don't, it's not about

00:07:13.480 power.

00:07:14.500 It's not about anything

00:07:16.080 other than just helping

00:07:17.560 young people, people that

00:07:20.180 are young.

00:07:21.020 Now, I did also say that

00:07:22.900 they're pro-choice, so they

00:07:24.200 don't, not that young.

00:07:25.440 No, it's kind of the sweet

00:07:26.840 range.

00:07:27.700 There's a nice range of a

00:07:29.280 little older than, you

00:07:30.660 know, the ones we're

00:07:31.220 getting rid of and, and,

00:07:32.280 and selling for parts, but

00:07:33.500 the, the, the older ones,

00:07:35.580 and we care about them

00:07:36.520 because of the tax

00:07:37.480 increases.

00:07:37.760 So that's how we show

00:07:38.960 how we care.

00:07:39.980 We say, look, someday you

00:07:41.080 can get a job or not.

00:07:42.540 You could just crap in the

00:07:43.480 streets.

00:07:44.640 But if you get a job, you're

00:07:47.120 going to love to pay it

00:07:48.760 forward in these taxes.

00:07:50.180 Well, a lot of people will

00:07:50.800 buy a presence for their

00:07:52.360 spouse on an anniversary.

00:07:53.700 I just raise taxes on her. 1.00

00:07:55.160 It shows that I love her.

00:07:56.400 Amen, brother.

00:07:57.420 That's what I do.

00:07:58.500 Now, San Francisco just

00:08:00.340 voted, had a big vote on

00:08:02.020 Proposition C and

00:08:03.400 Proposition D.

00:08:04.460 Okay.

00:08:05.060 Now, Proposition D is

00:08:06.580 known as the Housing for

00:08:08.180 All Initiative.

00:08:09.460 The Housing for All

00:08:12.160 Initiative.

00:08:12.260 Now, that is something you

00:08:13.220 might say, hey, was, are

00:08:14.380 they going to do something

00:08:15.240 with the homeless

00:08:15.800 problems?

00:08:16.040 They're going to do free,

00:08:16.240 yeah.

00:08:16.680 It's about the children.

00:08:17.620 Don't, don't worry.

00:08:18.160 Don't ask about that.

00:08:18.860 Okay.

00:08:18.940 Okay.

00:08:19.540 Now, this would, it would

00:08:21.400 affect taxes slightly.

00:08:23.820 Okay.

00:08:24.040 There is a slight difference

00:08:26.040 in taxes.

00:08:26.860 Okay, but this is going to

00:08:27.740 be to help.

00:08:28.580 It's going to help

00:08:29.040 children.

00:08:29.620 Housing for All. 0.84

00:08:31.120 And children.

00:08:31.900 And children.

00:08:32.680 Okay.

00:08:33.140 This would boost the

00:08:35.080 city's gross receipts

00:08:36.480 tax on commercial rents.

00:08:38.440 Now, if you don't know

00:08:39.520 what a gross receipts

00:08:40.440 tax is, because you

00:08:41.620 have a life, it's not

00:08:43.800 something that happens

00:08:44.520 that often anymore.

00:08:45.400 Why?

00:08:45.800 Because it doesn't tax

00:08:47.520 you on your profit.

00:08:49.800 It taxes you on the

00:08:51.480 gross receipts.

00:08:53.040 So, all the money you

00:08:54.500 get, you get taxed on,

00:08:56.480 whether you're making a

00:08:57.620 profit or not.

00:08:58.620 Oh, that's good.

00:08:58.800 Even if you're losing

00:08:59.680 money as a business, you

00:09:00.640 still get taxed on all

00:09:02.020 that.

00:09:02.260 That is good.

00:09:03.060 That's good.

00:09:03.620 That's good.

00:09:04.240 Now, those things have

00:09:05.300 pretty much gone away

00:09:06.140 nationwide, but now they're

00:09:07.900 proposing new ones in

00:09:09.140 San Francisco for the

00:09:10.200 children.

00:09:10.760 Okay, for the children.

00:09:11.820 So, this is a tax on the

00:09:15.180 rent?

00:09:15.820 Yeah, on commercial rents.

00:09:17.180 Now, they already have the

00:09:18.300 second highest rents in the

00:09:19.680 nation behind only New York.

00:09:21.720 Well, you don't want to be

00:09:22.840 number two.

00:09:24.300 You don't want to be number

00:09:24.900 two.

00:09:25.100 You want to raise them up.

00:09:25.680 So, this Proposition D would

00:09:28.260 increase the taxes slightly on

00:09:31.300 gross receipts.

00:09:31.960 Yes, only by 460%, though.

00:09:35.900 And that is not, I wouldn't

00:09:37.880 say, too much.

00:09:38.880 No.

00:09:39.360 For the children.

00:09:39.980 Is that too much for the

00:09:40.780 children?

00:09:41.060 No, it's not.

00:09:41.780 No, it's not.

00:09:42.280 You love children or you

00:09:43.060 don't love children?

00:09:43.640 No.

00:09:43.780 You love children or you

00:09:44.800 want to see them die.

00:09:46.040 If you love children, you'll

00:09:48.060 pay 400% more in tax.

00:09:50.120 If you don't love children and

00:09:52.660 you want them to die, you

00:09:54.420 know, whatever.

00:09:55.360 Whatever.

00:09:56.000 Yeah.

00:09:56.240 But God is watching you.

00:09:57.560 Right, of course.

00:09:58.360 If there was a God.

00:09:59.140 Now, this would only be a $70

00:10:02.060 million tax increase for the

00:10:04.120 city's businesses, which is

00:10:05.160 nothing.

00:10:05.860 I mean, it's basically, you

00:10:07.120 don't even notice it.

00:10:07.940 They're not going to notice it.

00:10:08.580 And again, is $70 million

00:10:10.140 too much for kids?

00:10:11.700 Do you think kids are worth,

00:10:13.120 what, $69 million?

00:10:14.220 What's your value on the lives

00:10:15.740 of children other than the

00:10:17.220 ones we abort?

00:10:18.080 Right.

00:10:18.360 What's your value?

00:10:19.900 Well, I don't.

00:10:21.080 I, well, I mean, can I sell

00:10:23.020 them?

00:10:23.740 I, no.

00:10:24.820 We'd sell them.

00:10:25.860 There's lots of profits to

00:10:26.860 and the value of children.

00:10:28.100 Okay.

00:10:28.480 The measure has attracted a

00:10:30.840 number of prominent

00:10:32.240 endorsements, including San

00:10:33.340 Francisco Chronicle, editorial

00:10:34.520 board, mayoral candidates,

00:10:36.200 pro-development groups, blah,

00:10:37.460 blah, blah, pro-development

00:10:38.780 groups.

00:10:39.940 But Proposition D also had

00:10:41.940 opponents.

00:10:42.880 Over half the city's board of

00:10:44.240 supervisors has come out

00:10:45.360 against it, including as well

00:10:47.140 as SEIU, a very powerful

00:10:49.140 union, as you know.

00:10:50.260 They did not want this.

00:10:51.180 And you think SEIU supports

00:10:52.660 every tax increase.

00:10:53.820 Why wouldn't they want a

00:10:54.940 460% tax increase?

00:10:57.180 And this is where the choice

00:10:58.220 comes in for California

00:10:59.440 voters that I think

00:11:00.700 California voters appreciate.

00:11:02.540 They say, okay, well,

00:11:03.620 there's, you know, we're just

00:11:04.940 looking for some sensible

00:11:06.280 ideas.

00:11:07.320 And then, you know, the

00:11:07.880 progressives will step in and

00:11:09.000 say, hey, a 400% tax

00:11:11.400 increase.

00:11:12.220 You know, that's, we think

00:11:13.600 that's sensible.

00:11:14.240 And there's others that say

00:11:15.940 that's not sensible.

00:11:18.180 Right.

00:11:18.340 We need common sense

00:11:19.240 reform.

00:11:19.640 I need common sense

00:11:20.860 reform.

00:11:21.380 So you had a choice and

00:11:22.820 the choice was the critics

00:11:24.060 have thrown their support

00:11:25.200 behind propositions.

00:11:26.360 See, see proposition.

00:11:28.000 See would also increase

00:11:31.020 the city's gross receipts

00:11:32.340 tax.

00:11:32.780 Now that's you kind of

00:11:33.820 might expect.

00:11:34.460 Yeah.

00:11:34.560 You're like, okay, come

00:11:35.400 up.

00:11:35.660 400% is crazy.

00:11:37.300 Maybe, maybe just increase 0.60

00:11:39.480 them by a hundred percent

00:11:41.440 or 200% something sensible.

00:11:43.840 Yes.

00:11:44.240 Right.

00:11:44.680 Yes.

00:11:45.160 Something sensible.

00:11:45.760 That's what I was thinking.

00:11:47.160 This is it's in that range.

00:11:49.380 Okay.

00:11:49.800 Kind of.

00:11:50.280 All right.

00:11:50.580 Does it start with a one?

00:11:51.860 It does.

00:11:52.360 It starts with a one.

00:11:53.100 Okay, good.

00:11:53.440 All right.

00:11:54.040 All right.

00:11:54.440 Proposition C would boost

00:11:56.640 the city's gross receipts

00:11:57.620 tax by 1066%.

00:11:59.820 So they could, you could

00:12:01.520 either have the 460%

00:12:03.340 increase or the 1066% 0.69

00:12:06.000 increase.

00:12:06.600 Right.

00:12:07.180 Now.

00:12:07.680 Which doesn't seem like

00:12:10.980 I want either.

00:12:12.020 Okay.

00:12:12.660 See, that's, you don't

00:12:14.320 care about kids is what

00:12:15.100 you're saying.

00:12:15.520 Wow.

00:12:15.920 He doesn't care about

00:12:16.580 children.

00:12:16.960 No.

00:12:17.180 He does not care about

00:12:18.020 children.

00:12:18.280 I'm thinking if I'm

00:12:19.120 doing business there

00:12:21.020 and this is on my

00:12:23.360 gross receipts.

00:12:24.900 Yep.

00:12:26.740 I'm not, I mean, like

00:12:28.380 let's say it per unit

00:12:30.400 that you rent, it costs

00:12:31.940 you a thousand dollars to

00:12:33.900 to run this building and

00:12:36.920 you charge $1,200 in rent.

00:12:38.920 So you have a $200 profit.

00:12:40.200 They're not charging.

00:12:41.040 They're not taxing the

00:12:41.740 $200 profit.

00:12:42.540 They're taxing $1,200 all

00:12:44.280 of it.

00:12:44.580 So you're going to now

00:12:45.420 go from profitable to

00:12:46.360 not profitable because of

00:12:47.500 the tax.

00:12:48.500 Uh, so yeah, but that

00:12:49.620 will help take the money

00:12:51.220 and the, it'll, it, you

00:12:53.840 know what, what it will

00:12:55.880 take the, uh, the evil,

00:13:00.040 uh, industrialist, the evil

00:13:03.480 capitalist, the evil

00:13:05.440 business owner.

00:13:06.580 Yes.

00:13:07.260 Uh, and get rid of them. 0.67

00:13:09.100 So then the land can go

00:13:11.020 back to the people.

00:13:12.200 Right.

00:13:14.800 Or something like that

00:13:15.700 or something like that

00:13:16.660 because certainly it's not

00:13:17.740 going to raise rents to

00:13:19.200 yet another ridiculous

00:13:20.420 level.

00:13:20.880 So no one can find, no,

00:13:22.840 that won't happen.

00:13:23.560 No.

00:13:23.660 Okay.

00:13:23.880 Good.

00:13:24.020 No, that won't happen.

00:13:25.060 Um, now this one does,

00:13:26.400 they should pass rent

00:13:27.480 control, right?

00:13:28.720 Yes.

00:13:29.140 And that would fix it.

00:13:30.200 Proposition D would raise

00:13:31.340 a $70 million in taxes.

00:13:33.500 Proposition C $146 million.

00:13:37.100 Well, that's probably not

00:13:39.160 accurate.

00:13:39.200 Accurate, you know, as we

00:13:41.340 have seen, no matter how

00:13:42.400 high you raise the income

00:13:44.160 tax, it generally receipts

00:13:46.560 remain around 18%.

00:13:49.000 Right.

00:13:49.660 So it doesn't matter

00:13:50.880 because, you know, you're

00:13:52.820 going to put people out of

00:13:53.720 business.

00:13:54.920 Um, people are going to

00:13:56.040 find a way around it.

00:13:57.660 So I'm not, I'm not sure

00:13:59.400 that it will raise the

00:14:00.620 entire 150,000 or 50 million.

00:14:03.780 Yeah.

00:14:04.140 It never seems to.

00:14:05.100 Now, if you're like, I

00:14:06.640 don't know, I'm not sure

00:14:07.680 which way to go.

00:14:08.360 You should probably know

00:14:09.360 how the San Francisco

00:14:10.320 chapter of the Democratic

00:14:11.340 Socialists are ruling on

00:14:12.560 this.

00:14:13.280 They have thrown their

00:14:14.420 support shockingly behind

00:14:16.560 the 1066% tax increase

00:14:19.000 calling the 460% tax

00:14:21.540 increase a crass attempt to

00:14:23.640 break working class 0.99

00:14:24.840 solidarity.

00:14:28.020 So how did this turn out?

00:14:30.600 You're going to be stunned.

00:14:31.320 You're going to be stunned

00:14:32.060 by this one.

00:14:32.480 San Francisco, I think, I

00:14:35.820 think they probably voted

00:14:37.120 for the, is everybody

00:14:40.860 crazy in San Francisco?

00:14:42.320 I'm just, let me debate

00:14:43.220 this here for a second.

00:14:47.700 Voters, it's an off year.

00:14:52.220 So you're getting those who

00:14:53.480 are passionate.

00:14:54.040 I think there was enough to

00:14:56.500 go for the 400% increase

00:14:59.360 and not go for the

00:15:02.120 thousand.

00:15:02.800 Although I think I'm out

00:15:04.680 on a limb because San

00:15:07.140 Francisco is totally nuts.

00:15:10.000 Yes.

00:15:10.280 And you also seem to believe

00:15:11.780 San Francisco doesn't care

00:15:12.720 about children, which is

00:15:13.760 strange.

00:15:14.320 Other than the ones that

00:15:15.240 they abort, the ones that 0.94

00:15:16.240 actually make it past the

00:15:17.340 abortion process.

00:15:18.240 They don't care about those

00:15:19.140 babies or something.

00:15:20.500 Measure D.

00:15:21.300 This is the one that

00:15:22.860 raised taxes 460% on

00:15:26.520 commercial landlords.

00:15:27.300 It's failed, failed,

00:15:29.700 failed, 55.2% to 44.8%.

00:15:33.400 Okay.

00:15:34.080 So that one did not even

00:15:35.700 come close really.

00:15:37.080 However, measure C, the

00:15:40.140 1066% tax increase is

00:15:44.180 currently leading 50.7 to

00:15:47.480 49.3 in a race that has

00:15:49.780 not officially been called

00:15:51.360 yet.

00:15:52.220 It's too close to call as

00:15:54.040 they finalize the voting.

00:15:56.480 It does look like it's

00:15:58.400 going to pass though.

00:16:00.020 So it looks like they

00:16:01.840 will increase the rent

00:16:03.900 tax by 1066% in San

00:16:07.280 Francisco.

00:16:07.580 The good news is, the

00:16:08.260 good news is, let's say

00:16:09.640 you have a restaurant in

00:16:10.800 one of the, you know,

00:16:11.640 just on the streets of

00:16:12.620 San Francisco.

00:16:13.540 By the way, write that

00:16:14.480 down.

00:16:14.740 We should start a TV show

00:16:16.080 and call it that.

00:16:16.760 That's a good idea.

00:16:17.940 But, you know, let's just

00:16:19.280 say this, you know, you've

00:16:20.280 got a restaurant out there.

00:16:21.600 The good news is you are

00:16:23.180 now paying more in taxes.

00:16:27.400 So your customers can come

00:16:29.760 in still pay higher, you

00:16:33.200 know, rates for your food

00:16:35.440 and still as they come in,

00:16:38.680 no matter what, how bad

00:16:41.100 your food is, they'll be

00:16:42.800 like, thank God it doesn't

00:16:46.080 smell like human fecal

00:16:47.560 matter in here.

00:16:48.740 And I think, I think

00:16:51.280 that's one of the

00:16:52.440 advantages of having a

00:16:54.700 business in San Francisco.

00:16:57.120 You don't have to be good.

00:16:59.700 You know, if you're in the

00:17:00.580 restaurant business, you

00:17:01.580 just have to make sure your

00:17:03.060 food doesn't smell like

00:17:05.460 fecal matter on the

00:17:07.260 outside of your business.

00:17:08.860 And you're going to be a

00:17:09.940 massive success.

00:17:11.480 And the good thing is, the

00:17:13.480 more successful you are, the

00:17:15.480 more taxes you will pay.

00:17:17.180 Therefore, the more you

00:17:20.960 care about children.

00:17:22.280 Yay.

00:17:22.960 It's great.

00:17:24.220 Keep pooping on the

00:17:25.120 streets, San Francisco.

00:17:26.620 By the way, we should also

00:17:27.340 point out they also passed

00:17:28.660 another tax that would give

00:17:30.660 legal help to tenants facing

00:17:32.280 eviction.

00:17:33.060 So now that they've raised

00:17:34.260 taxes on the rents, they

00:17:37.120 also are raising taxes to

00:17:38.680 give money to people who are

00:17:40.640 being evicted.

00:17:41.840 And they raise taxes for

00:17:44.780 schools.

00:17:46.780 Oh my gosh, what is wrong

00:17:48.060 with Californians?

00:17:48.940 And they also got clean

00:17:50.200 energy bonds passed.

00:17:53.240 I don't know if you know

00:17:54.000 this.

00:17:54.380 It's clean.

00:17:55.080 Can I tell you something?

00:17:55.980 I would invest in San

00:17:57.220 Francisco.

00:17:57.700 Oh my gosh.

00:17:58.280 And in Seattle.

00:17:59.700 San Francisco and Seattle.

00:18:00.560 If you've got a bond, I'm

00:18:02.540 like, I'm going to buy that

00:18:03.440 because they're going to be

00:18:04.060 able to pay that back.

00:18:05.060 No, it's fantastic.

00:18:07.240 Anyway, owning a home has

00:18:08.740 never been easier and it

00:21:06.100 This getting into work today was a

00:21:08.640 little difficult.

00:21:09.580 Uh, the, the, the traffic in the

00:21:12.600 main atrium of our building was a

00:21:14.600 little, was a little high, uh, today.

00:21:17.240 Everybody has been working really

00:21:19.140 literally around the clock to get

00:21:21.700 our, um, our museum together.

00:21:23.560 Uh, we, uh, had to up the

00:21:26.640 insurance yesterday, uh, to $30

00:21:30.280 million of artifacts that are going

00:21:33.220 to be in the building and it's, it's

00:21:35.880 going to be pretty remarkable and

00:21:37.680 we'd love for you to attend.

00:21:39.440 This is the first time we've ever

00:21:40.680 opened the entire studio.

00:21:42.600 Uh, I mean, you know, back of house

00:21:45.080 and everything we've opened up the

00:21:46.620 property cages and everything else

00:21:47.880 because we have so much stuff to show

00:21:49.400 you and we're really excited, uh, to

00:21:52.040 show it to you $30 million, $30

00:21:55.400 million.

00:21:55.980 Wow.

00:21:56.200 That's a lot.

00:21:56.720 You're thinking about, uh, I have a

00:21:58.120 key.

00:21:59.780 Um, you know, just, I don't think

00:22:02.800 that's something that you announced

00:22:04.400 to the, I just think if there's a

00:22:07.180 enterprising person out there, there

00:22:10.120 is interested in history, maybe they

00:22:11.820 could contact me.

00:22:12.720 Right.

00:22:13.260 There is a, it's weird because this

00:22:15.340 is the first time that we've, you

00:22:16.980 know, we've, we've always hired

00:22:18.080 police and we have security here all

00:22:20.260 the time.

00:22:20.620 Um, and we've, whenever we do these

00:22:22.380 museums, we have extra security.

00:22:25.080 Um, this time we have been required

00:22:28.400 to have, uh, uh, there, there's some

00:22:33.420 special group of people that this is

00:22:36.840 all they do is protect artifacts.

00:22:40.860 And they're like, I don't know, some

00:22:42.600 like, I don't know, Mossad, bad-ass

00:22:44.660 museum people.

00:22:46.060 Uh, so it's, uh, it should be proved to

00:22:49.480 be interesting, uh, just, uh, kind of

00:22:51.420 behind the scenes, but we would love

00:22:53.480 for you to attend.

00:22:54.400 Tickets are still on sale this weekend.

00:22:56.580 The rights and responsibilities, um,

00:22:58.820 exhibit, uh, some, uh, is already sold

00:23:02.620 out.

00:23:02.900 Some, some, uh, good portions of the

00:23:05.260 day are already sold out.

00:23:06.560 We would love for you to attend.

00:23:08.440 We'll be here all weekend long, uh, and

00:23:11.720 learn about history and show it to your

00:23:13.440 kids.

00:23:13.940 There's some remarkable stuff.

00:23:15.660 And it's important to remember, of

00:23:17.400 course, no matter how much security you

00:23:18.760 have, I mean, it's never, you can never

00:23:20.380 guarantee, you know, especially if you

00:23:24.180 have somebody on the inside.

00:23:25.740 Well, I mean, uh, there's a current

00:23:27.700 documentary out in theaters called

00:23:29.260 Oceans 8.

00:23:30.240 Yeah.

00:23:30.580 And, uh, they show not a documentary.

00:23:33.620 They show a pretty detailed plan on how

00:23:36.800 someone could potentially, but you would

00:23:39.880 really need inside information on the

00:23:41.680 layout.

00:23:42.400 A lot of times that's part of it.

00:23:43.880 Like where there's someone inside who

00:23:45.260 knows the layout, who maybe has access

00:23:47.000 to certain areas.

00:23:47.400 Do you know anybody that would be that

00:23:48.660 bad that would do something like that?

00:23:50.200 That what?

00:23:50.980 Huh?

00:23:51.900 Anyway, you could, you could find, hey,

00:23:54.740 you believe in the free market.

00:23:55.920 I believe in the free market.

00:23:57.260 What's this really worth?

00:23:59.340 Uh, mercury one.org slash museum 2018.

00:24:03.620 All right.

00:24:04.640 I've got some good news for you, Stu,

00:24:06.360 because there is another ballot measure

00:24:08.460 in California.

00:24:10.780 Oh, wow.

00:24:11.100 Uh, and this one is coming, uh, this,

00:24:13.780 this November.

00:24:16.400 Now, the last ballot measure we just

00:24:18.380 talked about increased the taxes, uh, on, uh,

00:24:22.000 on, on rental, uh, property, uh, by a

00:24:25.420 thousand percent.

00:24:26.720 A little over that.

00:24:27.820 Well, you know, why be picky?

00:24:30.080 I mean, you're, you know, let's California

00:24:33.440 has now on their ballot, they're going to

00:24:38.160 be asking voters if they agree or

00:24:41.400 disagree to break up into three separate

00:24:46.620 states.

00:24:49.440 They are voting in November.

00:24:52.260 And if the majority of voters cast the

00:24:55.360 ballot to break it up into Northern

00:24:57.800 California, Southern California, and

00:25:01.460 just California, uh, California has the

00:25:05.400 majority of the beach, by the way, Southern

00:25:08.740 California though, has, you know, San

00:25:11.200 Diego and, and, and all of that, uh,

00:25:13.900 California, it would be the smallest.

00:25:15.500 It is the, all the beach line in Los

00:25:18.060 Angeles and Hollywood, all the way up to

00:25:20.320 Monterey.

00:25:21.460 Then Northern California, uh, is right up

00:25:25.600 by, uh, San Francisco, all the way up to

00:25:28.420 the border of Oregon, Southern California,

00:25:31.300 uh, cuts out, you know, past the valley

00:25:34.400 and then goes down into San Diego.

00:25:38.180 So they, they're breaking it up into

00:25:40.100 three.

00:25:40.660 They want to break it up into three

00:25:42.020 states.

00:25:44.080 What's their reason?

00:25:45.140 What do you mean?

00:25:46.140 What's their reason?

00:25:46.780 Why are they, do you need reasons in

00:25:48.800 California?

00:25:49.740 Absolutely not.

00:25:50.580 Okay.

00:25:50.740 So this is the first time that this will

00:25:54.100 have been done or voted on since 1863,

00:25:57.320 when Virginia split into Virginia and West

00:26:01.480 Virginia.

00:26:02.680 Uh, so here's what they're, here's what

00:26:04.800 they're wanting, they're wanting to do.

00:26:06.920 Um, Los Angeles County is the one that

00:26:10.900 would rename, would retain the, the name

00:26:13.460 California.

00:26:15.040 Um, and, uh, what they're hoping will

00:26:19.040 happen is economic stability.

00:26:21.940 They say that the rural regions, uh, would

00:26:28.600 suffer from extraordinary rates of

00:26:31.140 poverty as individual states, while the

00:26:33.880 coastal communities would flourish in

00:26:36.420 the new smaller states where the lion

00:26:38.700 share of California's tax revenue is

00:26:41.000 generated.

00:26:41.940 What they've, what they're trying to do

00:26:44.200 is they're trying to make the areas

00:26:47.320 smaller.

00:26:48.160 So it will be more responsive to that

00:26:52.760 area because right now, just the big

00:26:55.620 cities are sucking up all of the

00:26:58.120 resources as this guy says, well, it's

00:27:01.160 going to be poverty because you know, it's

00:27:02.900 most of the money is there.

00:27:04.160 Yeah, but most of the spending is there

00:27:06.680 too.

00:27:08.080 And so they're trying to break it up and

00:27:10.360 give people, uh, a chance to, you know,

00:27:15.460 vote for what's good for their region.

00:27:17.480 Can California though dictate to the

00:27:20.680 United States that it now has 52

00:27:22.260 states?

00:27:24.620 Like, are they, is that something that

00:27:26.640 can happen?

00:27:27.340 I mean, maybe it is.

00:27:28.240 I don't.

00:27:28.840 It actually is.

00:27:29.980 I thought it was wrong.

00:27:31.640 Um, but it is in the constitution.

00:27:34.640 It's really hard to do.

00:27:37.280 Um, but California can do it without any 0.98

00:27:39.880 federal approval.

00:27:41.160 Like there's no role of the United

00:27:43.760 States.

00:27:44.560 Again, like, you know, I'm a big

00:27:45.780 federalism guy, but, and maybe some

00:27:47.460 maybe this is, there's a reason for

00:27:48.520 this, but you know, there was a big

00:27:50.360 deal when we added, you know, state

00:27:53.680 49 and 50.

00:27:55.060 It's a big, usually there's a big

00:27:57.120 deal that goes on with that.

00:27:58.460 If we're just, I mean, I guess

00:27:59.600 because it's the same territory.

00:28:02.120 I'm trying to find it where it is in

00:28:04.440 this article.

00:28:05.240 Um, but there is a section here.

00:28:08.780 It is, uh, article four, section three

00:28:10.980 of the U S constitution provision guiding

00:28:13.460 how an existing state can be divided into

00:28:16.240 new states.

00:28:19.580 Uh, I, I thought you couldn't divide an 0.87

00:28:23.420 existing state into two.

00:28:25.120 I could see it, that you could do it, but

00:28:26.820 it has to go through a process that would

00:28:28.760 involve the federal government as well, but

00:28:30.900 apparently not.

00:28:31.880 They say that it is rather lengthy and

00:28:34.340 complicated to get through, but I think

00:28:37.720 this is good.

00:28:38.320 If, if they've divided it to where the, the

00:28:43.460 farmers have to answer to the farmers, you 0.91

00:28:47.340 know what I mean?

00:28:48.040 Well, yeah, right.

00:28:49.000 Like, again, yes, exactly.

00:28:50.640 Like that, you could see there being, uh,

00:28:53.120 just like you don't want everything run by

00:28:55.000 the federal government.

00:28:55.720 You want it run at the smallest level

00:28:57.200 possible.

00:28:57.960 Having a gigantic state that's not

00:28:59.920 necessarily responsive to all the areas

00:29:01.700 is a problem, but in theory, this would

00:29:03.640 give them four new senators. 0.99

00:29:05.080 Would it not?

00:29:06.820 If they have two new states, they got four

00:29:08.380 new senators.

00:29:09.420 Oh, shut up. 0.99

00:29:10.580 So now we have 104 senators.

00:29:12.380 There's gotta be some senators. 1.00

00:29:14.220 Yeah, no, it would be senators.

00:29:15.740 There's gotta be some role for the federal

00:29:17.180 government.

00:29:17.480 You can't get used to have an unlimited

00:29:18.860 amount of senators from one state if they

00:29:20.340 just keep dividing it into little pieces.

00:29:24.080 Well, wait a minute.

00:29:24.940 If you can, Texas is about 600 states.

00:29:29.600 Good Texas.

00:29:30.300 Wow.

00:29:31.420 I mean, look at that.

00:29:32.000 They can't control California.

00:29:33.940 They can't serve the people in California.

00:29:38.220 Texas.

00:29:38.960 Look how large Texas is.

00:29:41.080 We seem to get it done here.

00:29:42.260 Yeah.

00:29:42.500 And you know how?

00:29:43.400 Our state house only meets every other year.

00:29:48.320 We don't pass a lot of state laws.

00:29:50.960 The state doesn't interfere.

00:29:53.540 The local governments take care of things.

00:29:56.500 I saw one of the biggest problems that has developed and is on both sides is it's become common.

00:30:03.880 The common complaint about the government is that, you know, they don't do anything.

00:30:11.140 You know, these people, they don't get anything done.

00:30:15.000 They shouldn't be getting a lot of things done.

00:30:16.900 Other than reversing the crap they've already tried to do, they should be pretty much sitting back.

00:30:24.580 I don't care if they never show up to Washington, D.C.

00:30:27.320 If all they can, they can repeal stuff online and that's pretty much all we need them to do.

00:30:34.000 There's plenty of laws.

00:30:35.580 There's plenty of laws.

00:30:36.880 I mean, look at their solutions in California.

00:30:40.320 Look at the solutions they come up with in California.

00:30:42.580 Has life in California become better?

00:30:47.000 Has it become easier?

00:30:49.980 Has it caused jobs to grow?

00:30:54.300 Let me ask Hollywood.

00:30:56.140 Have all of your unions and all of your rules, has that helped?

00:31:00.840 You were Hollywood USA.

00:31:04.400 It was the greatest place.

00:31:07.020 If you were going to make a movie, that's where you made a movie.

00:31:10.940 Shockingly, that's now what, Vancouver?

00:31:15.140 People will make it anywhere but Hollywood.

00:31:18.580 Have all of your rules, your regulations, your labor unions, all of your taxes, has it helped you?

00:31:26.040 The answer is no.

00:31:27.880 What is it going to take for Californians to learn that?

00:31:31.960 All right, I want to talk to you a little bit about buying and selling Bitcoin.

00:31:46.240 Buying Bitcoin is difficult unless you're buying one of the three or four big ones.

00:31:51.160 If you're going to invest in a smaller Bitcoin, I don't even know how to buy some of these things.

00:31:56.740 How do you sell them?

00:31:57.800 There is a lot to learn when it comes to cryptocurrency.

00:32:03.360 And cryptocurrency is the future.

00:32:05.760 We are going to a cashless society.

00:32:08.380 So what is blockchain?

00:32:11.240 Blockchain is going to be, I think, the way we communicate with each other at some point.

00:32:16.760 Because it's basically encrypted and there's no way that you can open it up.

00:32:23.340 You want privacy.

00:32:24.700 You need blockchain.

00:32:25.460 So all of these things are happening and they're all happening so fast.

00:32:30.320 We needed an expert to be able to teach it to us.

00:32:33.600 And while we're being taught, we said, hey, Tiki, would you be willing to put together a series, a course on this for the listener and the viewer?

00:32:43.000 Absolutely.

00:32:43.680 So they have.

00:32:44.400 It's a crypto course.

00:32:45.760 And it is going on now and we're getting rave reviews on it.

00:32:49.780 People who are using this, even people who thought they knew a lot about cryptocurrency are like, I learned all kinds of new stuff.

00:32:57.560 Smartcryptocourse.com.

00:32:58.800 Go there now.

00:33:01.060 Smartcryptocourse.com.

00:33:02.540 Or you can call 877-PBL-BACK.

00:33:06.100 877-PBL-BACK.

00:33:07.900 And get more information.

00:33:08.840 But it's smartcryptocourse.com.

00:33:11.860 It's a little remarkable.

00:33:17.620 Mark Sanford lost last night in his primary.

00:33:24.140 He has been, I think he has a remarkable story.

00:33:27.800 I mean, he went from a guy who was really, really great to a guy who made a huge personal failing to coming back and just knocking it out of the park.

00:33:41.900 He was a congressman who was standing for the conservative principles.

00:33:48.020 And I don't know what he did other than not vote in lockstep every time with Donald Trump.

00:33:58.040 I mean, it was 90 percent, wasn't he?

00:33:59.440 I think it was 80.

00:34:00.740 But so he was, as I believe, one of the I heard on CNN, one of the supporters who was wanting Sanford to lose phrase it.

00:34:10.520 He was the fourth most disloyal congressman, which I guess.

00:34:15.520 Could you say that again, please?

00:34:16.740 Yeah, I would like to.

00:34:17.800 Yeah, he was the fourth most disloyal Republican congressman, which, again, I don't know.

00:34:23.640 I think their loyalty, what's their loyalty to again?

00:34:27.140 Well, they have an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

00:34:31.260 All right.

00:34:31.900 So how would they rate the fourth most disloyal to the Constitution exactly?

00:34:37.080 I don't think there's a rating necessarily for that.

00:34:39.580 I know if you go by the Liberty, like the Liberty, the conservative review and other ratings agencies that care about the Constitution.

00:34:48.580 Sanford does incredibly well.

00:34:50.020 But he was the fourth most disloyal in this particular analysis, which, again, you know, look, a lot of people made the case to us.

00:34:59.340 You know, we've we're not huge.

00:35:02.040 We're not big Trump fans in the primary, as many people would recall.

00:35:05.300 However, the case after the primary was it's Trump or Hillary, which is a very understandable case that we talked about many times.

00:35:15.080 Hillary would have been much, much worse than Donald Trump has been on policy through this administration. 1.00

00:35:19.780 There's no question about it.

00:35:21.540 They're light years apart, further apart than I would have believed.

00:35:26.120 However, this is not Trump versus Hillary.

00:35:31.100 This is Trump.

00:35:31.940 This is this is loyalty to a president versus Mark Sanford, who's been unquestionably great on conservative policies.

00:35:41.420 It's an interesting place that we're in because, you know, I don't like loyalty oaths.

00:35:46.480 You know, I can you imagine and I am I mean this take this at any other point in history.

00:35:51.220 I think of what you would have said about a liberal who changed their vote because the president told them to.

00:35:57.920 I could never I would not live my life for a second in a place where I felt because the president tweeted to vote a certain way, I would listen.

00:36:08.160 It would make me less likely, you know, endorsements.

00:36:11.120 We've always joked about them.

00:36:12.600 Who cares what the endorsements are?

00:36:14.140 Who listens to endorsements?

00:36:15.440 You make up your own mind.

00:36:16.880 Well, I don't know, at least according to Donald Trump's analysis of the situation.

00:36:21.940 He's the one that changed it.

00:36:23.820 And it's hard to disagree with him.

00:36:25.640 It may not have been the tweet, but the his Sanford's opponent was running on.

00:36:31.120 I'm more Trump than Mark Sanford is.

00:36:33.880 And she was right.

00:36:35.040 She is.

00:36:36.320 You know, she pointed out that this is Donald Trump's party.

00:36:38.920 And, you know, it is clearly right.

00:36:41.740 I don't think there's there's no opposition.

00:36:43.220 It is going to end like the Democratic Party because the Democratic Party became Obama's party.

00:36:51.000 And you don't do that.

00:36:54.260 You don't build a party around a person.

00:36:58.420 It doesn't work out well.

00:37:00.620 I mean, look at what with Obama.

00:37:01.960 Yes, he won election twice.

00:37:03.260 But look at how he hollowed out the entire Democratic Party.

00:37:08.100 Remember the talking point?

00:37:09.780 They lost a thousand seats in state senates and governors and congressmen.

00:37:15.120 Remember that talking point?

00:37:16.540 Yeah.

00:37:16.980 I mean, that was what happened when they associated themselves to one man.

00:37:20.460 They're going to come roaring back now because they have Alec Baldwin considering to run for president against Donald Trump.

00:37:29.700 So, you know, it's going to be quite a comeback.

00:37:31.960 They have a deep, deep bench of Alec Baldwin and Bernie Sanders.

00:37:37.240 Glenn Beck.

00:37:38.940 Glenn Beck.

00:37:40.720 It was Tuesday night in May.

00:37:43.460 Susanna Maria Feldman.

00:37:44.880 She went out with her friends.

00:37:46.980 They were a little bit rowdy, but generally a good group of kids.

00:37:51.380 But Susanna didn't come home that night because she had been raped, strangled, and buried in the dead of night.

00:37:59.560 Her body was dumped into a ditch leading to a railroad track near the refugee camp in her hometown of Wiesbaden.

00:38:07.860 That's in Germany.

00:38:10.320 Susanna adored her five-year-old sister, cherished her family.

00:38:14.580 She was 14.

00:38:17.460 They found her body two weeks later.

00:38:21.060 By then, Ali Bashar, the 20-year-old man who had raped and strangled Susanna, fled Germany, along with his parents and five siblings, all using fake names.

00:38:33.720 They went back to their home in Iraq.

00:38:36.120 Ali Bashar had previously been accused of robbery, assault on a female police officer.

00:38:41.300 He had also been suspected in the rape of an 11-year-old girl who lived in the same refugee station as he did.

00:38:49.400 He was a refugee.

00:38:50.980 Yes, did I point that out?

00:38:53.620 He arrived in the country October 2015 as part of the wave of puppy-eyed refugees that flooded Europe, 1.00

00:39:00.420 who many European countries so proudly gave in and gave shelter to refugees.

00:39:10.100 Susanna was of Jewish-German heritage.

00:39:13.700 The Central Council of Jews in Germany said in a statement,

00:39:19.840 A young life has been put in a cruel way.

00:39:24.080 Our deep compassion applies to the relatives and the friends.

00:39:27.380 Susanna was a member of the Jewish community.

00:39:30.440 At present, much of the background is still unclear.

00:39:33.520 We expect the law enforcement authorities to provide rapid and comprehensive information,

00:39:39.220 as well as tough consequences for the perpetrators.

00:39:43.620 I tell you this story today because it's not just about Susanna.

00:39:47.140 She's not alone, not by far.

00:39:49.800 She is just one of a growing number of young women and young girls who are being sexually violated,

00:39:55.520 abused, and in imaginable nightmares, murdered.

00:40:06.160 Then they're tossed into a ditch, left in trash bins.

00:40:14.620 There is no respect for life.

00:40:18.820 Europe, this is what so many people were afraid of.

00:40:21.700 This is what the so-called naysayers were afraid of.

00:40:26.660 The governments are still not responding.

00:40:32.360 The world, generally speaking, is not racist.

00:40:37.360 There are racists.

00:40:38.920 There are racist policies.

00:40:41.620 But generally speaking, I think, at least in America,

00:40:45.700 we are not racist.

00:40:48.000 We are observant.

00:40:51.700 Multiculturalism is the problem. 1.00

00:40:57.780 If you come to our country, 1.00

00:41:00.320 come to our country knowing what we offer and what we do.

00:41:05.760 If you want to bring your country, your traditions,

00:41:09.840 and they involve killing people, raping people,

00:41:13.900 seeing others as insects, infidels, vermin, whatever it is,

00:41:21.960 you're not welcome here.

00:41:23.860 And it's about time our government all around the world

00:41:29.520 starts to recognize that there is a problem.

00:41:36.260 And the good people that really are refugees

00:41:39.200 are going to suffer the consequences

00:41:41.660 because of their inability and unwillingness to act.

00:41:47.200 because the worst part of this story is

00:41:49.820 this is just the beginning.

00:41:57.300 It's Wednesday, June 13th.

00:41:59.800 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:42:02.260 There is an unbelievable story

00:42:05.640 that just does not make any sense to me at all

00:42:10.480 other than this is what happens

00:42:12.980 when a government just starts passing laws

00:42:16.540 and is not using their brain at all.

00:42:22.000 What is the point of prison?

00:42:24.760 The point of the prison is to punish people for their crimes,

00:42:28.740 but rehabilitate them

00:42:30.700 so when they come out of prison,

00:42:33.040 they are good citizens, right?

00:42:36.460 Isn't that the point?

00:42:39.140 There is a case now of Matthew Charles.

00:42:44.480 It is absolutely unbelievable.

00:42:49.200 In the 90s, he was nabbed for selling crack.

00:42:54.300 He spent 21 years in prison.

00:42:57.940 He got out of prison on parole.

00:43:02.100 He has completely changed his life.

00:43:05.360 His community loves him.

00:43:07.280 He goes to church all the time.

00:43:08.820 He's got a job.

00:43:09.860 He volunteers in, I think, soup kitchens.

00:43:13.240 This guy is a model citizen.

00:43:17.540 Well, the state decided they made a mistake

00:43:20.120 because you've got to serve until 2027.

00:43:23.440 It's on the books here.

00:43:25.040 You've got to serve it until 2027.

00:43:28.300 So they took a guy who had been out on parole

00:43:32.100 for how many years, Stu?

00:43:33.820 Two? Three?

00:43:34.960 I don't even know.

00:43:36.780 I think two years.

00:43:38.480 And is a model citizen.

00:43:42.080 He's going back to prison until 2027.

00:43:45.780 This has got to stop.

00:43:48.840 This is wrong.

00:43:50.480 And there's something we can do about it.

00:43:51.980 Now, he has an attorney, and Charles' attorney is on with us now, Sean Hopwood.

00:43:59.400 Hello, Sean.

00:43:59.920 How are you?

00:44:01.580 I'm great.

00:44:02.280 Thanks for having me, Glenn.

00:44:03.460 Sure.

00:44:03.980 So tell me what we don't know about Matthew.

00:44:07.480 Well, I think one of the unusual things about Matthew's case is that, one,

00:44:15.440 he got an extremely long sentence for a drug crime, 35 years,

00:44:20.160 which in the federal system you have to serve 85% of that.

00:44:23.660 So best case scenario, he's got to do 30, 31 years.

00:44:28.660 And I think what's remarkable about his case is he's done 21 years in the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

00:44:35.080 Not only did there's no indication he had any acts of violence or committed any other crime in prison,

00:44:41.060 he didn't get a single minor disciplinary report.

00:44:45.580 How rare is that, Matthew?

00:44:48.360 I have never seen it.

00:44:49.880 And to put it in context, I don't know if your listeners know my story,

00:44:53.880 but I served 11 years in federal prison myself, and I'm often held up as the model of rehabilitation.

00:44:59.920 And I got two incident reports in 11 years, half of what Matthew served.

00:45:04.280 Wow.

00:45:05.060 So Matthew is quite the amazing man.

00:45:07.920 And then he gets out and just makes a community with his church in Nashville and volunteers.

00:45:14.500 You know, the first two years out of prison after serving a long sentence is very precarious for people.

00:45:19.860 They're trying to get some stability and get their life back on track.

00:45:24.340 And Matthew, despite all of that, went and served at a soup kitchen every Saturday for the homeless.

00:45:31.340 And what's interesting is the Department of Justice had a chance.

00:45:34.560 The judge asked them, will you dismiss a charge and let this man go free rather than re-locking him up for 10 more years?

00:45:42.420 And the Department of Justice said no.

00:45:45.160 Why?

00:45:47.560 Well, what they would say is they're just following the rule of law.

00:45:51.860 But that doesn't make any sense because federal prosecutors decide what to charge and what not to charge every day in federal court across the country.

00:46:01.620 There are many times people break federal law and prosecutors never charge it.

00:46:06.220 A lot.

00:46:07.600 A lot.

00:46:08.060 A lot.

00:46:08.540 Well, you know, the U.S. Congress does not value your liberty or anyone else in this country.

00:46:13.980 Because what most Americans don't know is that the Congress has found that there are 5,000 federal criminal laws.

00:46:22.260 5,000 things that are so serious that the Congress thinks that you could potentially go to jail or prison for.

00:46:31.860 So, first of all, is Matthew, is he back in prison yet?

00:46:37.280 He is in county jail in Kentucky awaiting transfer to another prison.

00:46:43.000 But we are hopeful that the president, President Trump, will grant him clemency and return him back home to the community that desperately wants him back.

00:46:53.500 I read an article about his going away party.

00:46:58.720 And he was so gracious.

00:47:01.440 And, I mean, I wouldn't be.

00:47:04.520 I wouldn't be.

00:47:05.320 What was his attitude as he went on?

00:47:09.500 You know, if it was me, I would be very bitter and angry.

00:47:12.740 But that's not Matthew's character.

00:47:15.740 Matthew kind of left the bitter, angry guy behind in prison many, many years ago.

00:47:20.580 He has been, you know, he's sad and devastated because he finally got his life back on track only to have it all ripped away from him.

00:47:28.580 But I tell you, he is also a very humble man.

00:47:31.840 And he has been just overwhelmed with the number of people who, you know, his change.org petition is close to 100,000 signatures.

00:47:41.760 We did a lot of interviews last week, including NBC Nightly News.

00:47:45.720 And he's just been overwhelmed at the number of people from all political stripes who are supporting him and his quest for clemency.

00:47:53.680 By the way, that petition is posted at glenbeck.com if you want to go sign it.

00:47:58.180 What's the goal for this, Sean?

00:48:01.100 Well, the goal is to just get enough public support that the president decides this is worth doing.

00:48:09.040 And the White House is aware of Matthew's case.

00:48:11.280 I don't I have yet to run into anyone who thinks that it was a smart or wise idea to send him back to prison for 10 years.

00:48:20.540 So I'm hopeful that something will happen and that the president, much like he did last week with Alice Johnson, will sign a clemency petition.

00:48:28.820 And Matthew can go back home to his girlfriend and his church community.

00:48:32.980 In a theoretical world, right, if we had an Elysium or the Matrix where we could test these things and you had criminals who had, you know, did bad things and you could somehow test the fact that maybe they could return and you could prove it, you could release people all the time.

00:48:51.480 The issue is, of course, that would be incredibly risky to release them into into the actual population if you weren't sure.

00:48:57.800 Here's a case in which we essentially got the opportunity to test.

00:49:01.200 We got we were able to release this guy to see if he could blend into community, to see if his life had been turned around.

00:49:07.740 He's a success story.

00:49:08.840 It's a success story.

00:49:09.980 It was proven that he could.

00:49:11.700 And yet on what seems to be a ridiculous technicality, they're throwing them back into prison.

00:49:17.600 I mean, it is it's it's it's unthinkable.

00:49:20.600 There there are thousands of Matthew Charles's in federal prison that just haven't had the opportunity he has to get out.

00:49:27.980 But the great irony about the American criminal justice system is, one, we think that we are the land of the free.

00:49:36.340 But on the other hand, America incarcerates its citizens at a greater rate than almost any other country on the planet.

00:49:43.280 And to the great irony of it is the longer someone spends in corrections, the less likely they generally are to come out and live law abiding, successful lives.

00:49:52.320 It doesn't make people better.

00:49:53.800 Right. And you don't I can't imagine going to prison for 20 years, 21 years here and and being able to even function on the outside.

00:50:05.100 It was a different world that he lived in in the 1990s.

00:50:09.940 Completely different.

00:50:11.180 When I was released in 2008, I had never been on the Internet, never seen an iPad, an iPhone or an iPod.

00:50:18.080 And one of the things I quickly realized when I went to pick up the paper and look at the classified ad section for jobs was no one advertises jobs in the classified section.

00:50:28.820 And Matthew had to overcome all those hurdles, too.

00:50:31.740 Just the stress of so much change when you've been incarcerated that long.

00:50:36.020 And yet he was able to overcome all of that and show that he's a change person, which just, you know, in a perfect world, the Department of Justice would have recognized his rehabilitation and just cut him loose.

00:50:50.880 Sean, do you have time to stay with us for a little bit longer?

00:50:53.540 I do.

00:50:54.160 OK, if you stay on with us, because I've got a few.

00:50:57.580 This is a fascinating story and should be more than fascinating to people.

00:51:02.760 We need to take action on this.

00:51:04.380 You can go to Glenn Beck dot com and sign the petition and and get the president's attention.

00:51:12.240 And we've got to correct this.

00:51:13.880 There's there's something good happening in America right now.

00:51:16.640 And that is we're starting to come together on one thing.

00:51:19.840 And that is prison reform.

00:51:21.540 It doesn't work.

00:51:23.620 Let's talk about prison reform.

00:51:25.680 How do we do this and how do we get the people out of prison that shouldn't be there anymore?

00:51:31.640 Sean Hopwood, he is the attorney for Matthew Charles.

00:51:37.180 He's also an associate professor of Georgetown Law.

00:51:40.380 We can continue our conversation here in just a second.

00:51:43.440 Let me tell you about Goldline.

00:51:45.100 The central bank is coming out.

00:51:47.660 Is it today?

00:51:48.540 Is today the day or is it tomorrow that they're they're announcing the increase?

00:51:52.860 There is yet another increase coming from the Fed.

00:51:56.840 Things are not looking rosy the way we all feel.

00:52:03.220 There are real signs of real trouble.

00:52:06.500 Inflation is going up.

00:52:08.180 In fact, the Fed will probably announce tomorrow that any of the tax cuts now have been erased because of inflation.

00:52:16.520 inflation, not just the inflation that is happening because there's too much money out there, but also because of the tariffs.

00:52:23.740 The tariffs are you've you're you're paying more for almost everything now.

00:52:31.280 And that's because of these tariffs.

00:52:33.820 So they're going to raise the interest rates to try to get inflation under control.

00:52:38.080 I don't know how they're going to do it, but, you know, they're the experts.

00:52:43.600 May I suggest that you can seriously consider gold or silver because the one hedge against inflation it is.

00:52:51.560 This is when it really performs is when inflation starts to go up.

00:52:55.560 People put money into gold because that retains its value.

00:52:59.800 That just keeps going up as your dollar, the value of your dollar, your stock or whatever goes down.

00:53:06.000 So call them now at 866-GOLD-LINE, 1-866-GOLD-LINE or goldline.com.

00:53:47.400 Sean Hopwood, he is the lawyer representing Matthew Charles, an incredible story.

00:53:53.000 He's an associate professor of Georgetown Law.

00:53:56.460 Sean, we have about three and a half minutes.

00:53:58.280 Can you just, can you tell me your story a little bit?

00:54:02.380 Yeah, so my story kind of is not too dissimilar for Matthew Charles.

00:54:08.860 In 1997 and 1998, as a 21, 22-year-old, I robbed five banks and was 12 years and three months in federal prison

00:54:19.460 and got to prison and learned the law and had two briefs that I prepared for other guys and friends of mine in prison

00:54:28.440 that were granted by the United States Supreme Court.

00:54:31.260 And then I started winning cases in federal court all over, even though I had never been to law school

00:54:37.080 and hadn't even taken freshman English and then didn't have an undergraduate degree either.

00:54:43.820 That is unbelievable.

00:54:45.680 This is just like Suits.

00:54:47.140 It's my favorite show.

00:54:47.960 Oh, this is exactly what happened in Suits.

00:54:50.340 Oh my gosh, I can't believe that's happening.

00:54:51.940 So you get a Gates Foundation scholarship when you leave and you go to the University of Washington

00:54:57.800 and now you're a professor at George Washington Law?

00:55:01.580 I got out in 2009.

00:55:05.160 I finished my bachelor's degree.

00:55:07.300 I went to the University of Washington up in Seattle School of Law.

00:55:12.040 My first job out of law school was clerking for Judge Janice Rogers Brown,

00:55:18.300 a very conservative judge on the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

00:55:24.220 And then I came to Georgetown as a teaching fellow for two years,

00:55:27.380 and I went on the market to be a law professor, and Georgetown kept me.

00:55:31.780 Unbelievable.

00:55:32.580 I have just the most amazing job where I get to help people every day.

00:55:37.300 So, Sean, the odds that if the president doesn't act that Matthew's going to get out of prison?

00:55:47.580 Well, he'll get out, but he'll have to do nine or ten years.

00:55:51.040 But I'm trying not to think about that because I really think the president who, you know,

00:55:56.300 I was in the White House about a month ago when the president talked about the need to reform our prisons

00:56:03.320 and that it doesn't serve anyone well for people to go to prison and come out worse off rather than better.

00:56:10.700 And he talked about the need for America to be the land of second chances and even third chances.

00:56:16.400 And, you know, knowing he said that and believed that,

00:56:19.580 and knowing that the White House is also working on a prison reform bill,

00:56:23.020 I've been working with them for months on that,

00:56:25.380 I think there's a good likelihood that the president will see the injustice for Matthew.

00:56:30.500 Sean, that is fantastic news.

00:56:33.900 We will continue to follow this case.

00:56:36.660 Thank you so much for the work that you're doing.

00:56:38.860 Tell Matthew to keep his chin up.

00:56:40.820 There are people from all walks of life that are behind him.

00:56:45.300 We urge you to go to glennbeck.com.

00:56:48.480 It's posted right there on the front page where you can go.

00:56:51.720 You'll click.

00:56:52.300 It'll take you right to the petition.

00:56:54.680 You can sign the petition there and help Matthew Charles.

00:57:00.200 Let's right this wrong.

00:57:02.720 Seemingly, there's been a support.

00:57:03.960 Thanks for talking about Matthew's case,

00:57:06.500 and I'm just hopeful that he's going to get to go home.

00:57:10.440 Me too.

00:57:10.840 Thanks, Sean.

00:57:11.180 Thanks, Sean.

00:57:11.600 Appreciate it.

00:57:12.080 God bless.

00:57:12.640 Glennbeck.com is where you can find the petition.

00:57:14.180 There's really been support across the aisle.

00:57:16.460 Both sides agree that this is a miscarriage of justice.

00:57:19.880 This is something we can unite on.

00:57:21.540 And I think Trump will do this eventually.

00:57:23.220 I do, too.

00:57:23.640 We just need to get it in front of him.

00:57:24.860 Yes.

00:57:25.300 So please, go sign the petition.

00:57:28.240 It's that White House petition.

00:57:30.200 You can do it now at glennbeck.com.

00:57:33.420 Tell a friend.

00:57:33.960 So, President Trump has deemed the meeting with Kim Jong-un a wild success

00:57:48.740 and said that we don't have to worry.

00:57:50.040 He's no longer going to be a threat to the world on nukes.

00:57:53.780 It might be a little early to claim victory.

00:57:58.700 He did sign a piece of paper, which is great.

00:58:01.780 Now, and again, this piece of paper is actually less restrictive on North Korea

00:58:06.420 than previous pieces of paper that have been signed.

00:58:09.240 Though, again, this is very consistent with the way Trump deals with these things.

00:58:15.780 I think he, you know, when you're doing something with him, he praises you

00:58:19.640 and he praises you effusively.

00:58:21.280 And he goes the other way when you're doing something he doesn't like,

00:58:26.020 which is why he sounds so much more negative about Canada and the media

00:58:30.600 than he does a guy who's got a bunch of concentration camps

00:58:33.940 and murdering his own people. 0.58

00:58:35.600 Like, right now, he believes he's going the right way with Kim Jong-un.

00:58:40.080 So he's praising.

00:58:42.260 And if Kim Jong-un screws this up, changes, decides to not denuclearize,

00:58:48.760 he will change and start killing him again in the media.

00:58:52.400 And, I mean, that's just the way, it's the way he does it.

00:58:55.260 You know, it's not my, you know, it's not the style that I enjoy.

00:58:59.020 But, again, you know, I don't know if anyone's noticed, no one elected me.

00:59:03.520 They elected him.

00:59:04.380 Yeah.

00:59:04.640 And this is his style.

00:59:06.040 And we should be rooting for the best.

00:59:07.860 Absolutely.

00:59:08.320 And I think part of this, too, is he does this a lot in negotiations

00:59:11.620 in which he tries to lock you into your position.

00:59:15.020 So he goes out there and he praises something he didn't really do, right?

00:59:20.500 Like, they're saying, well, we'll denuclearize the, you know, peninsula.

00:59:25.100 It's based on tons of other conditions, right?

00:59:28.360 Like, it's not like, oh, we're just definitely, we're going to,

00:59:30.540 everything's going to be gone tomorrow.

00:59:32.140 But he goes out publicly and says, wow, everything's going to be gone tomorrow.

00:59:35.640 Or, actually, in this case, he said, everything's already gone, right?

00:59:38.780 He's trying to lock him publicly into this position.

00:59:41.180 And so when Kim Jong-un comes back and says, well, yeah, I'm not doing half of the things

00:59:47.540 you said I was doing, Trump can go, wait a minute, I stuck my neck out for you.

00:59:52.400 I was out there saying that you were a good guy.

00:59:54.880 I was out there saying that you were funny and loved your people.

00:59:58.140 And now you're doing this to me?

00:59:59.560 Yeah, could be.

01:00:00.280 You know, I think there's a bit of that that he does.

01:00:02.880 And he's done that forever, right?

01:00:04.580 He's always tried to lock people into those positions publicly.

01:00:08.780 And then he acts as if you've reversed it on him when people try to enforce the original

01:00:14.660 agreement.

01:00:15.260 Well, look, I mean, it's worked for him in the past.

01:00:17.100 Yeah.

01:00:17.340 Maybe.

01:00:17.740 I don't know if Kim Jong-un feels those same media pressures considering his situation.

01:00:22.580 But maybe he does.

01:00:23.820 Again, he's a very bizarre character.

01:00:27.920 And if you, well, Kim.

01:00:30.260 And if you go through Kim Jong-un and you're saying, all right, well, you know, maybe we try

01:00:35.440 some unconventional stuff and maybe it moves it, you know?

01:00:38.320 I mean, it's again, I think everyone, whether you like Trump or not, is saying it's worth

01:00:43.500 a shot, right?

01:00:44.920 Why not give it a shot?

01:00:46.900 We just got to make sure that we don't fold and give him everything just so we can say

01:00:52.400 we have a win.

01:00:53.360 I think that's what everyone's concerned about.

01:00:55.980 But I think we should give it a shot.

01:00:57.140 Well, let's wait for this to play out before you trash it or not.

01:01:00.460 It's in play.

01:01:01.560 Let it play out.

01:01:02.600 You pointed this out last night on the television show and you went through step by step how

01:01:08.000 Reagan worked on the Gorbachev thing and with Iceland and and several of the steps you

01:01:15.360 noted were wait.

01:01:17.740 Yes.

01:01:18.320 Let them simmer in it.

01:01:19.660 Let them sit there and think about it a little bit.

01:01:21.880 I mean, the way the way the way Reagan did it is is similar.

01:01:26.960 First, you start out with the, you know, evil empire speech.

01:01:29.960 You start out saying they're really bad and and we got to do something about it.

01:01:34.880 And you do it in such a way that everybody in the world says you can't say that about

01:01:39.540 them.

01:01:39.980 That's what only make things worse.

01:01:41.780 Evil empire speech.

01:01:43.900 Rocket man.

01:01:45.640 You know, hey, go ahead.

01:01:47.480 We'll vaporize you. 0.90

01:01:48.740 I mean, think of all the things that Donald Trump said with with North Korea.

01:01:54.340 Then after you say that you set up a coalition and you you penalize them, you try to choke

01:02:03.040 off their money, which we have done.

01:02:05.720 But what Reagan did is he went to the pope and he went to Margaret Thatcher.

01:02:13.400 Margaret Thatcher was putting external pressure on.

01:02:16.260 But the pope was putting internal pressure on.

01:02:19.860 He had connections inside.

01:02:23.220 What did what did Donald Trump do?

01:02:25.620 Donald Trump went to China.

01:02:29.700 China has called him in because China is the pressure on the inside.

01:02:35.700 Now, we don't know how much pressure.

01:02:37.240 We don't know what's going on.

01:02:38.440 But China played a big role in this.

01:02:40.920 Remember, they called him out.

01:02:42.820 He doesn't leave the country.

01:02:43.800 They called him out and said, you have to you have to come meet with us in China.

01:02:48.120 So he took his cute little train in his toilet and he went to China for a meeting.

01:02:53.480 What happened there?

01:02:54.440 I don't know.

01:02:55.340 But I would imagine it was pressure.

01:02:59.160 So he's got the pressure from the outside and pressure from the inside, exactly the way

01:03:04.420 Gorbachev did.

01:03:05.860 Then you wait for a meeting.

01:03:07.620 But you put something on the table in that meeting that you're refusing to walk away from.

01:03:15.820 Something that is really, really tempting.

01:03:19.320 So Gorbachev, what was put on the table, Gorbachev wanted to put on the table was Star Wars.

01:03:26.360 Well, Star Wars was a lie.

01:03:27.840 We didn't have Star Wars.

01:03:28.920 So what was it that we put on the table with Kim Jong-un?

01:03:35.280 I'm convinced it's that film.

01:03:39.080 I'm convinced that he went to Little Rocket Man and said, look, you love the Western culture.

01:03:47.300 Why are you avoiding this?

01:03:50.460 You be our friends.

01:03:51.780 Look, you're going to have a great life.

01:03:53.960 You're going to hang out with the movie stars.

01:03:55.900 You're going to hang out with movie stars and basketball players.

01:04:03.740 You're going to be part of the global community.

01:04:06.360 You're going to be part of the West.

01:04:11.840 That's what Kim Jong-un wants, is that.

01:04:17.300 So Donald Trump put that on the table.

01:04:20.640 Now, to me, it's a lie because there's no way he's going to be able to stop.

01:04:29.060 Once that country begins to collapse, they're not going to stop it.

01:04:33.560 And who's going to prop him up?

01:04:35.080 Nobody.

01:04:36.040 Nobody's going to prop him up.

01:04:37.460 So the minute he takes that bait and goes into perestroika or glasnos, which was the opening of the Iron Curtain, then it's too late. 0.70

01:04:47.140 So Donald Trump has just offered him the world of literally the world.

01:04:56.920 You're going to be a superstar.

01:04:58.180 You're going to be remembered as one of the greatest leaders of all time.

01:05:01.120 You're going to open up and you're going to let's put some hotels on your beaches.

01:05:05.280 It's going to be great.

01:05:07.800 He does that.

01:05:10.080 I think the little man wants it.

01:05:13.080 Now you wait.

01:05:15.060 If you start to see that Kim Jong-un starts to kill people around him, high level hardliners, you're going to know that it's working because the next thing that happens is the hardliners are going to say to him, you can't do this.

01:05:35.360 What are you crazy?

01:05:36.240 You can't do this.

01:05:37.340 And Kim Jong-un wants it.

01:05:39.900 He wants it badly.

01:05:41.540 He believes Trump can do it.

01:05:48.560 So.

01:05:50.420 We wait and we see if he starts to make a move towards more openness, if the hardliners start to be killed off.

01:05:59.960 Then there will be another meeting.

01:06:01.640 And that's when Donald Trump can close the noose, just like Ronald Reagan did with Gorbachev.

01:06:10.460 Now, this is my optimistic hope.

01:06:14.720 But remember, that took eight years to pull off.

01:06:19.620 We're day two.

01:06:22.540 Wait.

01:06:23.860 Wait.

01:06:24.720 Play the game and then wait.

01:06:27.520 Wait.

01:06:27.580 Wait.

01:06:27.660 Wait.

01:06:28.580 Wait.

01:06:29.580 Wait.

01:06:31.580 Well, it's that time of year when you were inside because it is hot as blazes of hell.

01:06:43.340 No, I mean, it's just like standing under a blowtorch.

01:06:45.700 It's no big deal.

01:06:46.760 Anyway, it's hot.

01:06:47.680 It's getting worse.

01:06:48.520 And you have to be inside.

01:06:50.360 And your air conditioning is just pulling over time.

01:06:53.700 Now, the AC unit here at the studios working overtime, the AC unit at my house, everybody's house and replacing that is not cheap.

01:07:03.340 So what do you do?

01:07:04.360 You have to have a fresh set of filters in your system from filter by otherwise, it's going to have a hard time sucking in new air to cool.

01:07:14.600 And as it sucks in the new air, it's filtering all of the toxins, all of the allergy, you know, crap that's in the air, and it's going to filter it all out.

01:07:26.760 But as that starts to get clogged, then your air conditioner has to work harder and harder and harder.

01:07:32.760 Now, filter by has, you know, auto delivery.

01:07:36.560 So you don't have to think about it.

01:07:38.380 And you're going to need to change your filter probably twice now and at the end of the summer because you're going to be using it all the time.

01:07:47.180 If you're anything like we are, you're going to be using it all the time.

01:07:49.720 They're going to knock 5% off your order just for making your life easier and setting up regular delivery.

01:07:55.660 You can save time, save money, breathe better, and don't have to think about it anymore.

01:08:01.040 Save on wear and tear and save on allergies.

01:08:04.820 It's filter by.

01:08:06.500 Filter, B-U-Y dot com. 1.00

01:08:08.980 Filter by dot com.

01:08:12.680 Glenn Beck.

01:08:15.600 All right.

01:08:16.740 There's a couple of things that you need to know.

01:08:20.580 First, there is a there is an update that is not going to go over well in the White House today on Michael Cohen.

01:08:30.160 Stu.

01:08:31.800 Yeah, well, it's this is just breaking.

01:08:34.620 So we're just reading up on it now.

01:08:36.660 It's an odd.

01:08:37.440 It's an odd story.

01:08:38.920 So Cohen is dealing with 3.7 million documents that were seized and they're going through the process now of trying to figure out exactly what's going on with them,

01:08:48.800 which ones are privileged and which ones aren't.

01:08:51.380 So far, only a few have been privileged.

01:08:53.960 162 out of 300,000 of the first batch.

01:08:56.660 So 162, not 162,000 of 300,000, but 162 of 300,000 documents have been privileged and will not be introduced.

01:09:04.640 So but again, a lot of that's probably also nonsense.

01:09:08.360 Anyway, the big development that's apparently happening, according to ABC News, that Cohen's lawyers are leaving.

01:09:18.220 Do we have any idea why?

01:09:19.680 There doesn't seem to be an indication in this particular story about that, you know, speculation about that he's now what they're saying is they believe this means he's cooperating with the New York attorney, attorney general and district attorney.

01:09:37.520 So the development, this is how it reads in the ABC report.

01:09:43.060 No replacing counsel has been identified as of this time.

01:09:46.140 Cohen now with no legal representation is likely to cooperate with federal prosecutors in New York.

01:09:50.460 Sources said this development, which is believed to be imminent, will likely hit the White House family members and staffers and counsels hard.

01:09:56.680 And they believe as this is going through, I mean, you know, who knows if it doesn't this does not mean that Trump did anything wrong by any means.

01:10:07.600 It could very well mean that he has documents on Manafort and who else was already been indicted.

01:10:13.440 And we don't know what the deal is, but him cooperating is certainly not something that the White House was will be excited about hearing.

01:10:22.480 Um, depending on what he has, I mean, if, if, if they already are throwing, you know, Manafort to the wolves, um, and rightly so, in my opinion, uh, what difference does it make if he, you know, turns evidence on Manafort, as long as it doesn't implicate the president or anybody else new.

01:10:40.780 Right.

01:10:41.260 Uh, of course, though, I mean, it's just going to be so difficult, even if it's not criminally damaging, you know, these documents being out there are, God only knows what Michael Cohen.

01:10:52.480 I mean, Cohen, as you know, is, you know, he's a movie style, bad guy attorney.

01:10:58.700 Yeah.

01:10:58.820 Do we ever, we never even played the audio of him.

01:11:00.600 Did we know when he was calling up a yelling at the reporter?

01:11:03.340 No, we did a couple of weeks ago.

01:11:05.320 Uh, you know, he's just, you know, he's not a good guy.

01:11:09.240 And, and look, Trump knows how rough and tumble he is.

01:11:13.540 And because of that, never brought him into the White House.

01:11:16.340 Cohen was never even never in the White House.

01:11:18.340 Um, so that's, he was, he was able to bring in people who, like Bannon, who were loud mouths and, you know, other people who, like, you know, you know, Flynn, who had his issues, although doesn't seem to, you know, to be nearly the bad guy that Michael Cohen is.

01:11:35.400 I mean, Cohen has been, had all sorts of problems for a long, long time and, you know, his job, which was valuable at times in the real estate business is not something you want anywhere near the White House.

01:11:45.440 And Trump knew that from day one.

01:11:46.960 Uh, but what this guy actually has in his archives, what he's done, I mean, you know, what he's done on behalf of the president, whether the president knew about it or not, could be an issue.

01:11:58.780 I mean, you know, Trump has said a hundred times he had no business in Russia and all of that.

01:12:03.280 At that time, we now, at least has been reported widely, that Cohen was, on his own, trying to get Trump Tower Moscow built.

01:12:13.660 Separately from Trump, no one has said that he, that Trump told him to do this, but he had some freedom to go out there and try to create deals and was dealing with very odd sources in Russia about trying to get, in 2016, during the campaign, to try to get Trump Tower Moscow built.

01:12:33.660 And here is, here is, uh, the kind of guy he is.

01:12:37.980 Here's Michael Cohen, uh, talking to a reporter saying, back off.

01:12:42.980 I will make sure that you and I meet one day while we're in the courthouse.

01:12:48.460 And I will take you for everything that you still don't have.

01:12:51.420 And I will come after you at Daily Beast and everybody else that you possibly know.

01:12:56.500 Do not even think about going to where I know you're planning on going.

01:13:00.960 And that's my warning for today.

01:13:02.740 So I'm warning you.

01:13:04.320 Trent, where are you f***ing likely?

01:13:06.220 Because what I'm going to do to you is going to be f***ing disgusting.

01:13:09.260 Do you understand me?

01:13:10.240 Don't think you're going to hide behind your pen because it's not going to happen.

01:13:14.980 I'm more than happy to discuss it with your attorney and with your legal counsel because mother f***ing you're going to need it. 1.00

01:13:21.000 So, you know, uh, it's a kind of a, if you are in the situation where you are, uh, dealing with the press and the press is as unfair as they are to, uh, you know, Donald Trump or many people, there'd be a good portion of you that want that guy on your side.

01:13:44.700 Sure.

01:13:45.040 To do that kind of thing.

01:13:47.220 I, I, I don't appreciate it or like it, but that's the kind of thing that has come out, you know, before.

01:13:54.320 And that's not the kind of thing that the FBI is looking at, but you can see he plays real hardball.

01:14:01.040 So what has he done?

01:14:03.060 If anything, we'll follow this and bring you up to speed as more comes along.

01:14:08.780 Glenn Beck.

01:14:13.020 All right.

01:14:14.360 One more reason we actually might be stuck in, you know, some virtual reality version of Alice in Wonderland where everything is upside down.

01:14:23.140 I'm not sure.

01:14:23.880 Spanish tennis player, Rafael Nadal gave what is seemingly a more rational explanation of the supposed gender wage gap than any of the feminists or Marxist or tenured gender studies.

01:14:39.240 Uh, you know, the, those who are the professors now, gender studies that have, uh, you know, rallied around these crazy explanations for decades.

01:14:50.220 Now, Rafael Nadal currently ranked number one in men's singles tennis by the association of tennis professionals, uh, with a, you know, a buttload of career titles.

01:15:02.180 He, uh, he apparently is, I don't, I don't know the professional tennis embodiment of Jordan Peterson.

01:15:08.860 Now I, I'm, I'm not really sure he was in an interview and he was asked in tennis, uh, should women earn as much as men?

01:15:16.880 Um, okay.

01:15:19.580 How are you going to answer that?

01:15:21.900 How's the average person who just wants to stay out of the side, uh, the, uh, spotlight?

01:15:28.420 Oh, absolutely.

01:15:29.320 I mean, it's, it's just, wow, of course they should, you know, they're equal and in every way, and we should all support women and their fight for equality.

01:15:37.580 So here's, so here's what he said.

01:15:39.860 It isn't a comparison that we should even make.

01:15:45.200 Female models earn more than male models and nobody says anything. 0.82

01:15:51.180 I love this.

01:15:52.420 Why?

01:15:53.380 Because they have a larger following.

01:15:56.200 In tennis too.

01:15:58.340 Who gathers a larger audience earns more.

01:16:01.620 Wait a minute, wait, wait a minute.

01:16:06.400 Is he saying that a, the wage gap actually affects women and men, but just in different ways.

01:16:12.540 And two, any disparity can't be conveniently attributed to systematic misogyny.

01:16:19.620 That's crazy talk.

01:16:22.340 The wage gap might be a fiction of the fourth wave critical theory based feminism. 1.00

01:16:28.840 Shut up. 0.95

01:16:29.580 Shut up. 0.95

01:16:30.300 Did he issue a trigger warning?

01:16:33.720 Oh my gosh.

01:16:34.280 Did I?

01:16:35.480 Let's go back in time.

01:16:37.260 Uh, this next story, I just want to warn you, it may, there may be a trigger.

01:16:45.800 Trying to ask people to be personally responsible for their wages and understand each and every business and how business is different.

01:16:55.580 Is he seriously saying that equality of outcome is bad?

01:17:03.340 In today's world, that's great.

01:17:05.040 That's too much common sense there.

01:17:06.640 He's a bad person.

01:17:07.460 He's a Nazi. 0.78

01:17:08.320 Don't say he's a bad person.

01:17:09.720 He's a Nazi. 0.78

01:17:10.560 You know, everybody quick.

01:17:13.480 Get outraged.

01:17:14.760 Take to Twitter right now.

01:17:16.440 Just get to, we have got to expose this evil, disgusting, incredibly logical Nazi.

01:17:22.780 You know, the one thing that I've learned in putting this museum together, which is opening this weekend.

01:17:45.180 Uh, it only runs Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

01:17:48.060 I think, I think tomorrow night we're having a big dinner.

01:17:50.920 Uh, Friday night you can come and have a dinner.

01:17:54.220 It's a fundraiser for Operation Underground Railroad and, uh, the Nazarene Fund.

01:17:59.380 Uh, tickets are, you know, a bit pricey.

01:18:02.080 It's going to be a, uh, a small gathering and we would love for you to attend.

01:18:06.940 Um, we've, I've got, I've got a few surprises for the, uh, for the people who attend.

01:18:12.960 Um, but then the, you know, general admission tickets for the museum are happening all weekend long.

01:18:18.720 I'm going to be here all weekend.

01:18:20.360 Everybody, uh, on the shows are going to be here all, all weekend long.

01:18:23.700 And we would love to see you and meet you.

01:18:26.100 And thank you for, um, listening to us and watching us and supporting us.

01:18:31.120 The rights and responsibilities, uh, exhibit is all about correcting history.

01:18:37.760 What is it?

01:18:39.640 What is it about?

01:18:42.540 Uh, what is it about, you know, the, the, um, academia that makes it so easy for them to change history?

01:18:57.900 Well, what makes it really easy?

01:19:00.460 Us.

01:19:02.100 Our ignorance of history.

01:19:06.220 We have some documents and some, uh, items that are on display this weekend that will really, truly blow your mind.

01:19:17.420 Uh, this one, I, I just can't believe every time I open this up, I just can't believe I'm holding it in my hand.

01:19:23.700 Uh, this is a document from Thomas Paine.

01:19:27.340 Now, most people don't know Thomas Paine.

01:19:30.560 And if you know Thomas Paine and say, oh, he was a great patriot, you then don't know the other half of his life.

01:19:39.040 If you look at him and say, oh yeah, he's the founder who's the atheist, you don't know him at all.

01:19:45.740 And this document proves it.

01:19:48.960 It's a letter between him and, uh, it's a letter between him and, uh, Benjamin Franklin and, uh, John Adams.

01:19:55.760 And he's responding to them.

01:19:58.920 And I'll get to it in a second.

01:20:00.120 If you don't know who Thomas Paine is, he is the guy, um, he was born in England and his dad was a Quaker who made rope for ships.

01:20:10.620 And once he was old enough, he took up his father's, uh, his, his trade.

01:20:15.040 And then he worked as a tax collector.

01:20:17.740 Well, he wasn't good at, you know, being a tax collector or making ropes.

01:20:22.200 His wife and his baby, uh, in 1760 died during childbirth.

01:20:28.720 And so he just had this, I mean, he just really had a rough upbringing and early life.

01:20:35.800 He remarried, then he got divorced.

01:20:38.040 And he was at a low point when he met Benjamin Franklin in London, uh, who said, you need to make a new life for yourself in America, in America, just leave this crap behind.

01:20:50.640 So he's 37 years old.

01:20:52.520 It's 1774.

01:20:54.580 And he comes to work for Benjamin Franklin as an editor at his Pennsylvania, uh, Gazette magazine.

01:21:02.040 So he's starting to write as he comes over and he starts learning about America and he writes African slavery in America.

01:21:11.640 And it was a total takedown of slavery.

01:21:15.220 He gets sweet.

01:21:16.640 He gets swept up in the revolutionary, uh, spirit.

01:21:20.020 And when the war breaks out, uh, he writes a couple of things.

01:21:24.480 First, he's the guy who wrote common sense, which galvanized the nation and really got everybody to say,

01:21:31.920 Hey, Congress, you, we want to break away.

01:21:34.860 We want to break away.

01:21:36.160 It was Thomas pain and common sense that gave birth to the declaration of independence.

01:21:43.940 Then about a year later, it's around Christmas time, 1776.

01:21:49.480 George Washington is losing horribly.

01:21:52.000 We haven't won a single battle.

01:21:53.900 Everybody's starting to say the revolution is over.

01:21:56.420 He is losing, uh, guys left and right.

01:21:59.700 They don't have faith in him and they're headed down South.

01:22:03.540 They're headed, uh, past Philadelphia because Philadelphia, all of the members of Congress have already fled because the British are coming and they're just going to kill all of the revolutionaries. 0.74

01:22:15.120 George Washington knows he has got to turn this around.

01:22:19.600 And so he is, uh, camped on the Southern side of the Delaware and he is praying.

01:22:27.260 What am I going to do?

01:22:28.640 How do I rally people around at that time?

01:22:32.360 Somewhere else is Thomas pain and he's marching with troops.

01:22:36.600 He doesn't know where Washington is, but he starts to think as he's marching, you know, these are the times that try men's souls.

01:22:43.140 Well, that is the beginning of the mate of the American crisis.

01:22:49.400 He asked for the head of a drum.

01:22:52.040 The guy who is marching next is he didn't have any paper and he writes the American crisis down.

01:22:57.400 And he said, I want you to first get this to George Washington, then get it to a printer.

01:23:03.040 George Washington does not know what to say to his troops.

01:23:07.640 He says, I just want you to listen to these words.

01:23:20.920 These are the times that try men's souls.

01:23:24.560 It's the winter soldier, not the summer Patriot.

01:23:32.700 You are winter soldiers and I need you to get into boats and I need you to go back the other direction. 0.98

01:23:40.140 We're going to take on the Hessians. 0.79

01:23:43.160 These are the this is the this is these are the Navy SEALs of our day.

01:23:50.520 It's because of Thomas Paine.

01:23:53.120 War ends, by the way, Thomas Paine hasn't made any money because he's taken all of the profits and he's given all of the profits to the war effort.

01:24:02.960 So this guy's a massive hero.

01:24:08.320 The French Revolution breaks out.

01:24:10.500 He believes that the French Revolution is the American Revolution.

01:24:14.940 George Washington and everybody else except for Thomas Paine and Thomas Jefferson understand.

01:24:20.020 No, this is not life, liberty and property.

01:24:23.360 This is liberty, equality and fraternity.

01:24:29.180 And that's different.

01:24:30.600 They don't have God.

01:24:32.960 Thomas Paine gets really, really angry.

01:24:35.220 He leaves.

01:24:36.120 He calls George Washington all kinds of names.

01:24:38.440 Washington says, I'm not going to bail you out if you get in trouble over there.

01:24:41.740 He goes over.

01:24:43.000 He writes the rights of man, which is defending the French Revolution.

01:24:46.920 It's a big success.

01:24:48.420 And then the next one he writes.

01:24:51.440 And that's the age of reason.

01:24:53.540 This is the one that had Teddy Roosevelt say, oh, Thomas Paine.

01:25:01.200 Oh, he's that filthy little atheist. 1.00

01:25:04.940 Well, he's not a filthy little atheist.

01:25:07.700 But history records him as a filthy little atheist because of what he wrote.

01:25:13.640 When he came back to America after the French Revolution, everybody abandoned him and hated him.

01:25:23.180 Within 10 years, he died broke and alone.

01:25:27.740 There were only six people that attended his funeral.

01:25:33.780 Six.

01:25:34.540 What did he say that was so bad?

01:25:39.720 And what was his defense?

01:25:42.380 You will be taught that he is an atheist.

01:25:46.560 In my hand right now are the pages written explaining exactly what he meant and why he wrote it, which completely changes history.

01:25:58.860 I'll tell you about it coming up next.

01:26:09.000 Don't forget, you can see this document.

01:26:11.080 Read it yourself.

01:26:12.960 Along with the first draft of the Declaration of Independence, which is mind-blowing.

01:28:12.100 And change history.

01:28:14.380 Change your understanding of it.

01:28:16.340 If you learn that Thomas Paine was an atheist, you will see in his letter from, I thought it was John Adams, but it's to Samuel Adams, dated 1803.

01:28:26.580 Payne is responding to Benjamin Franklin and Adams' criticism of the Age of Reason.

01:28:34.160 And they said, why would you even write this?

01:28:36.120 Why would you even write it?

01:28:37.900 And he says, now remember, he is in France during the revolution with the guillotines.

01:28:43.660 The people of France were running headlong into atheism.

01:28:49.040 I had the work Age of Reason translated into French to stop them in that career.

01:28:57.120 Wait, what?

01:28:58.460 Why would an atheist write something, have it translated into French to stop them from becoming atheists? 0.93

01:29:10.280 He said they needed to fix themselves to the first article, which he talks about earlier.

01:29:15.420 The first thing of every man's creed, and that is, I believe in God.

01:29:23.840 Why, my dear friend, is my religion exactly, and this whole of it, a question?

01:29:31.720 It makes me believe that you have no idea of what I wrote in the Age of Reason.

01:29:37.380 Most people haven't read it.

01:29:39.380 But I extol a reverential love for the deity.

01:29:46.600 Let me give you a paragraph from it, he says.

01:29:48.740 Do you want to contemplate his power?

01:29:50.380 We see it in the immensity of creation.

01:29:52.580 Do we want to contemplate his wisdom?

01:29:54.340 We see it in the unchangeable order.

01:29:56.700 Do we want to see the abundance of which he fills the earth?

01:30:00.160 We want to contemplate his mercy?

01:30:01.700 We see it in his not withholding the abundance from everything, even from the unthankful.

01:30:07.700 So he goes on to talk about that he has a problem with religion, and that's what the people of France were going through.

01:30:17.800 Problem with religion and priests.

01:30:20.000 And he even says how these priests will stand up for the shedding of blood, and they get involved in things that they shouldn't get involved in.

01:30:31.320 And all of the war and the whoop from the pulpit has concealed the object.

01:30:38.900 Religion is not the cause, but it is the stalking horse that put it forward to conceal themselves. 0.99

01:30:46.780 So in other words, there's a lot of these people who are total frauds.

01:30:50.820 And they're using religion to manipulate to become rich or to become powerful or whatever it is. 0.93

01:30:56.880 So he is anti-religion, not anti-God.

01:31:02.460 He is also, he's not a Christian, but he knows the parameters of God.

01:31:09.680 And if you read this letter, he clearly believes in God.

01:31:15.020 It's truly a remarkable letter that you'll be able to read.

01:31:19.280 It's going to be all out, page by page.

01:31:20.820 You'll be able to read.

01:31:22.220 You'll be able to read it yourself.

01:31:23.780 It's really incredible.

01:31:24.840 And at the end, the end is the most amazing part to me.

01:31:28.020 Because sure, we've been told one thing about history, and it's completely wrong.

01:31:33.200 I mean, yes, he had a lot of these feelings.

01:31:35.980 But I mean, this proves really, you know, that he was, he did believe in higher authority.

01:31:40.860 When he's saying, how do we contemplate his brilliance?

01:31:44.120 Who's he?

01:31:45.220 Right?

01:31:45.400 Like he's talking about somebody there.

01:31:46.800 Oh, he goes on to talk about specifically about God.

01:31:49.860 Right.

01:31:50.140 I mean, and it's, so that, that's proved in this letter.

01:31:52.680 However, it ends with him, and pardon my French, if I may, in this particular case, he ends it with an ass joke.

01:32:01.980 Well, I mean, that's not French. 0.55

01:32:04.440 Well, he was talking about the French Revolution when he was discussing it.

01:32:07.060 That's why I said, pardon my French. 0.89

01:32:08.100 Right.

01:32:08.360 And it's not, it's not even a good joke, but it might have been, you know.

01:32:11.260 Oh, but he legit, in giant block letters that you can see in the letter, just makes a joke.

01:32:16.960 Yeah.

01:32:17.580 So he does this whole thing, and it's very, very serious.

01:32:21.560 And then on the last page, he writes, what word is it that all men loves?

01:32:28.340 And by taking away the first letter, most men love.

01:32:33.060 And by taking away the first two letters, it shows the character of the man that loves neither.

01:32:41.980 So what is that word?

01:32:45.840 What?

01:32:46.540 It's glass.

01:32:47.680 Uh-huh.

01:32:48.660 All men apparently love glass.

01:32:50.560 This must have been because windows were just coming in or something.

01:32:52.840 I don't know why, but all men love.

01:32:54.920 We're all big glass guys.

01:32:55.780 We're all huge glass guys.

01:32:57.800 Then you take away the first letter, and most men love, lass.

01:33:04.080 And then you take away.

01:33:05.380 I don't know what he means by that.

01:33:06.620 Well, women, but I mean, he's saying most men love.

01:33:12.680 So he is an advocate for same-sex marriage.

01:33:17.400 And then you take away the first two, and it shows the character of those who love neither

01:33:25.240 women or glass for some reason. 1.00

01:33:31.320 It's a terrible joke.

01:33:33.280 It's a terrible joke.

01:33:34.040 It may have been really funny back then.

01:33:36.640 I don't know, but it's not real funny now.

01:33:40.740 But it's crazy.

01:33:41.560 He's writing this to Samuel Adams.

01:33:44.100 Samuel Adams is the, he's like the Billy Graham of the era.

01:33:49.800 Yeah, yeah.

01:33:50.300 He is the big preacher in Congress and part of the founding group.

01:33:58.320 Now known as the beer guy, but not necessarily at the time.

01:34:02.580 No, maybe that's what he was saying.

01:34:04.800 A glass of ale.

01:34:06.260 Ah.

01:34:06.800 Glass of some of your beer there, Sam.

01:34:09.800 Maybe.

01:34:15.980 So let me give you a fact that I want you to really remember and spread this far and wide.

01:34:23.100 New, uh, new, uh, figures have, have come out.

01:34:28.500 You know, we are the worst as, as a nation.

01:34:31.060 We're horrible at everything, right?

01:34:33.800 Well, according to, um, the Giving USA Foundation's annual report on philanthropy.

01:34:40.560 I love this story.

01:34:41.360 We have just set a record high for charitable giving in the last 12 months.

01:34:48.140 Yeah.

01:34:48.400 What do we give?

01:34:48.960 Like $40?

01:34:50.840 Uh.

01:34:51.520 Stingy bastards we have in this country.

01:34:52.960 Well, we.

01:34:53.580 $30.

01:34:54.700 By the way, this does not include any government giving at all.

01:34:57.940 Could I, could I, may I?

01:34:59.280 I'm just trying to help.

01:35:00.040 I'm just, I'm a helper.

01:35:00.740 Well, you're not really helping.

01:35:01.580 I'm a helper.

01:35:01.920 You're not helping.

01:35:02.980 So here's.

01:35:03.580 That's what I do.

01:35:04.000 I help.

01:35:04.300 So America gave $410 billion last year, $410 billion.

01:35:17.500 It has never been that high.

01:35:20.360 In fact, we eclipse the world in total dollars given from our own wallet.

01:35:26.540 And the vast majority, $287 billion was given by people and not corporations or foundations,

01:35:36.280 but by average people.

01:35:38.720 Now, if you happen to be traveling internationally and someone says, well, you know, your country

01:35:46.940 stings on ice and say, well, you know, without the ice, you stink.

01:35:51.900 But that's a different story.

01:35:53.820 How much money do you, France, give as a country?

01:36:02.000 Because we're not just charitable in the U.S.

01:36:05.020 We also provide the most foreign aid by far, and no one comes close to us.

01:36:12.100 So the United States Department requested $51 billion last year to give to foreign aid.

01:36:20.080 Now, Americans gave over $400 billion, but the government gave, took money from us and gave an additional

01:36:31.060 $51 billion.

01:36:33.700 Just for some perspective, that's $30 billion more than Germany.

01:36:38.980 That is $30 million more than the U.K., $40 billion more than France, and $45 billion more than Canada.

01:36:52.940 No country in the history of the world has ever been this charitable.

01:36:58.660 That is truly American exceptionalism.

01:37:03.680 And that comes from our Judeo-Christian upbringing.

01:37:09.640 I'm going to say it.

01:37:10.500 I'm going to say it.

01:37:11.580 How dare you?

01:37:12.320 I'm going to say it.

01:37:13.640 Don't.

01:37:14.320 You're a bad person.

01:37:15.560 Don't.

01:37:17.100 Not only that, but the private giving, as a percentage of GDP, because everybody else will say, well, you got 300 million people.

01:37:24.960 Of course, you gave more as a percentage of GDP.

01:37:27.840 We gave double the second place country doubled the second place country.

01:37:34.780 And I mean, it's triple or quadruple places like Germany and, you know, crappy France.

01:37:41.040 Yeah, it's, it's unbelievable.

01:37:43.360 Is that the new name?

01:37:44.140 Yeah, it's called crappy France.

01:37:45.540 Wow.

01:37:45.880 Yeah.

01:37:46.280 They officially, because they thought, well, yeah, I mean, it's why deny reality?

01:37:50.400 My country's crappy France.

01:37:52.840 It works.

01:37:53.340 It works.

01:37:53.840 Okay.

01:37:54.060 That's good.

01:37:54.560 That is, that is amazing.

01:37:56.260 And that's a, what a cultural thing, right?

01:37:57.800 It's because of our upbringing of a couple of things.

01:38:01.940 One, Benjamin Franklin, what is the American religion?

01:38:06.000 It's not Catholic, Protestant, or anything else.

01:38:08.100 The American religion is there is a God.

01:38:11.440 We should serve him.

01:38:13.460 And the best way to serve him is to serve our fellow man.

01:38:16.500 That's what, that's the stock of this nation.

01:38:20.100 So we've always done that.

01:38:21.880 Plus, we have always looked to ourselves to fix problems.

01:38:27.520 We don't stand around like everybody else does.

01:38:30.020 Why doesn't the country do anything about that?

01:38:32.900 We do it.

01:38:34.360 We do it.

01:38:35.620 And the bigger our government becomes, the more socialized our government becomes, the

01:38:41.980 less we will do for ourselves.

01:38:45.120 That's what's happening.

01:38:46.200 And the world will weep when the lights go out on, on America.

01:38:52.920 They will weep.

01:38:54.300 They will have no idea the good that we have done.

01:38:57.700 There's so many new developments as well that are, that are really positive here in the United

01:39:02.200 States.

01:39:02.500 I think we're going in the right direction.

01:39:03.760 Thank you for pointing that out, Stu, because the University of California at Santa Barbara,

01:39:09.340 UCSB, hosts a website that's controlled by the sociology department.

01:39:16.240 It encourages parents, finally, somebody's saying.

01:39:20.100 Finally.

01:39:21.040 It encourages parents to allow their young children to participate in sexual play.

01:39:26.640 Wait, you mean you're normal, perfectly healthy.

01:39:29.820 Hold it.

01:39:30.160 You mean your college students?

01:39:32.460 No, no, no.

01:39:33.240 This is, they actually say that sexual play is most common between the ages of four and

01:39:42.920 seven.

01:39:44.180 And it's, quote, completely normal, generally harmless, and encourages, they're encouraging

01:39:52.120 parents to allow these behaviors.

01:39:54.140 So try to be positive when you see this happen.

01:39:56.200 If your seven-year-old is playing with a four-year-old, is that, I mean, that's perfect. 0.95

01:40:02.880 Perfectly normal.

01:40:03.880 What do they mean?

01:40:04.800 Generally harmless.

01:40:05.600 What do they mean generally harmless?

01:40:08.480 Yeah.

01:40:08.800 You know what?

01:40:09.460 They don't accept that with guns, do they?

01:40:12.380 No, they do not.

01:40:13.700 Over 300 million guns.

01:40:16.460 How many are used in crime?

01:40:18.140 What?

01:40:18.240 They are generally harmless.

01:40:24.540 There's a section on the website that reads, children might display affection to their friends

01:40:29.880 by hugging and kissing or touching each other's genitals, which is perfectly normal. 0.99

01:40:36.340 Parents should not react in a negative way because children are just exploring.

01:40:41.640 So you should encourage this kind of behavior.

01:40:44.320 If a child is performing these activities excessively in public, why, you might sit them down, have

01:40:52.020 a talk with them about how this should be done in private.

01:40:54.000 So if it's happening, like, at a Taco Bell booth, you want to maybe put a stop to it.

01:40:57.780 Yes.

01:40:58.240 Don't try to thwart the activity, of course, altogether.

01:41:01.320 You don't want that.

01:41:01.960 No, no, no.

01:41:01.980 Wait, wait, wait.

01:41:02.600 Just tell them to do it behind closed doors.

01:41:03.800 Weren't these the same people that were telling us that we had to tell our kids which parts

01:41:11.080 of their body was private and which part was a no touch?

01:41:14.700 So that nobody will touch?

01:41:15.860 No touch zones?

01:41:17.180 Yeah.

01:41:17.960 When was it when we started predicting that they would have to make this, they would have

01:41:22.380 to normalize things like pedophilia?

01:41:25.320 And for the last several years, we've seen this.

01:41:28.100 Now, they're talking about sex among kids themselves, like a four and a seven-year-old inappropriately

01:41:33.060 touching is perfectly normal and generally harmless.

01:41:36.280 But how far away are we from telling us all that it's fine if adults engage in this activity?

01:41:43.240 You have to.

01:41:44.240 If you're being consistent.

01:41:46.540 Yeah.

01:41:47.300 You have to.

01:41:48.860 There's absolutely nothing anymore.

01:41:51.440 Really, that's verboten.

01:41:53.520 There's nothing that you should say to your kids.

01:41:55.680 I think that word is.

01:41:56.740 Hey, don't do that.

01:41:57.180 That word makes me think of the white Germans. 0.88

01:41:59.280 Did I make you uncomfortable?

01:42:00.500 Yeah.

01:42:00.940 We're looking for the master race. 1.00

01:42:02.200 Were you uncomfortable there?

01:42:03.480 Absolutely.

01:42:03.840 That was a trigger word for me.

01:42:05.040 It was somewhat alert-rightish.

01:42:06.680 Trigger word is also a trigger word because it has the word trigger in it.

01:42:09.960 Oh, my gosh.

01:42:10.560 Now you have made me uncomfortable.

01:42:13.100 I'm sorry.

01:42:13.760 I wish you wouldn't have brought up that image in my head.

01:42:17.020 I'm sorry.

01:42:17.680 Wow.

01:42:17.940 You, Stu?

01:42:18.400 Are you uncomfortable as well?

01:42:19.500 I'm looking.

01:42:19.960 I'm hoping for a soundproof glass case that I could get into.

01:42:24.620 I can just stay in all the time.

01:42:26.000 You know, the University of Utah has a cry closet.

01:42:29.300 We should install one of those here.

01:42:30.940 I'm sorry, what?

01:42:31.500 There's a cry closet where you go and cry and get all emotional about your finals exams.

01:42:38.100 They've set them up all over campus.

01:42:40.060 It has pillows.

01:42:40.720 It has pillows.

01:42:41.320 It does.

01:42:41.900 Yeah.

01:42:42.420 Yeah.

01:42:42.800 So, I mean, if you take a cry closet.

01:42:44.680 Uh-huh.

01:42:45.560 Well, if you're going to...

01:42:46.400 Yeah.

01:42:46.680 And that's...

01:42:47.160 By the way, we want to make sure that people understand it's okay to cry at school about

01:42:51.520 a test.

01:42:52.460 Yeah.

01:42:52.940 But we just want a safe place for you to...

01:42:54.700 And you might be crying because your parents told you not to touch other kids' genitals 0.94

01:42:58.300 when you were a child.

01:42:59.560 Right.

01:42:59.760 And you're still harmed by that.

01:43:00.940 Because they may have reacted negatively to it.

01:43:02.720 They may have.

01:43:03.540 And they shouldn't have.

01:43:04.260 They should not have to.

01:43:06.260 They have a cry closet? 0.95

01:43:08.180 Yeah.

01:43:08.380 Yeah, they do.

01:43:11.680 Is there any chance that anybody's ever going to grow up anymore?

01:43:14.760 Is there any chance?

01:43:16.420 Can you imagine a cry...

01:43:17.720 A cry closet?

01:43:20.600 I know.

01:43:21.000 We used to look up...

01:43:21.600 When I was a kid, we would look up to college students as, like, they were grown-ups.

01:43:26.240 They were the cool grown-ups.

01:43:27.600 Mm-hmm.

01:43:28.960 Can you imagine...

01:43:30.720 They're pansies now.

01:43:31.920 Yeah.

01:43:32.120 You're like, yeah, I was...

01:43:35.320 You know, I went and I...

01:43:37.460 Oh, I...

01:43:38.260 Somebody used some trigger language and I had to go into the cry closet and cry all day.

01:43:43.860 You'd be like, what?

01:43:46.940 You're eight.

01:43:48.460 Okay.

01:43:49.480 I don't want you touching me anymore.

01:43:51.220 You are weird.

01:43:52.980 Isn't it, though...

01:43:54.000 Because I used to have this view that, you know, we would talk about this before.

01:43:59.380 Like, oh, well, it's great.

01:44:00.300 You know, you can have your participation trophies in your cry closets and my kids will be the

01:44:05.360 ones you're serving at your job where you can't do anything because you have...

01:44:11.760 You're completely unprepared for the world.

01:44:13.860 And I've converted this belief because I now believe that these people who are building

01:44:20.720 the cry closets and crying inside the cry closets, it will become so universal that cry

01:44:26.540 closets will just be the thing.

01:44:28.320 That's what society will be.

01:44:30.300 It's like we've talked about, like, with, you know, global warming before.

01:44:33.300 You can come out and you can say, well, global...

01:44:35.760 You know, forget that a global warming is real or not.

01:44:38.240 Talk about the idea that, you know, they're encouraging you to do things that absolutely

01:44:43.440 with all certainty, even if you believe every piece of nonsense that Al Gore has ever said

01:44:49.020 will not solve the problem.

01:44:50.680 You know, doing things like, well, you know, you need to unplug your appliances and when

01:44:57.420 you need to...

01:44:58.040 You know, all these little steps that will make a quote-unquote difference when they know,

01:45:02.380 you know, it's just about selling the idea, right?

01:45:04.800 It's not about actually making a difference.

01:45:06.140 You can't scientifically make a difference with any of those, you know, causes.

01:45:09.560 So, I used to think, well, eventually, like, people will realize that, sure, we want to

01:45:16.700 be clean, but, you know, this is stupid. 0.83

01:45:18.880 And the reality of the situation, the reality of fossil fuels being incredibly useful to

01:45:25.240 build, I don't know, a civilization on, at some point, people just get older and realize

01:45:30.900 this.

01:45:31.220 They're so on it when they're dopey kids and they eventually realize it later on in life.

01:45:35.620 I no longer believe that's accurate at all.

01:45:38.380 I now believe that those nonsensical ideas that are fed to teenagers just become the truth

01:45:46.000 later on.

01:45:46.740 Not that they're actually true, but that just, it's so widely believed and never challenged

01:45:52.260 that they just adopt that as the entire civilization's policy.

01:45:57.480 So, you...

01:45:58.260 So, we're screwed, is what I was saying.

01:45:59.620 You are right.

01:46:00.980 Because I've always felt...

01:46:02.340 No pulling back from this?

01:46:03.480 No, no, no.

01:46:03.960 What he's saying about how that just becomes the norm.

01:46:06.840 Well, yeah.

01:46:07.360 I've always believed in self-evident truth.

01:46:10.760 I don't believe that anymore.

01:46:12.260 I don't believe there is...

01:46:13.040 Things aren't self-evident to people.

01:46:14.200 They are not self-evident to people.

01:46:16.640 Your freedom is not self-evident.

01:46:19.920 That is something that had to be carefully taught and studied and reasoned.

01:46:25.520 Yeah.

01:46:25.700 And then, when that society had enough reason in it, it started going, wait a minute, I shouldn't

01:46:33.620 have somebody else telling me what to do.

01:46:35.660 Yeah.

01:46:36.080 That, that, that's when it becomes self-evident.

01:46:38.700 So, it is quickly becoming self-evident that the dinosaurs that believe in cry rooms being

01:46:46.780 funny or cry rooms being tragically sad because it makes you into a four-year-old that will

01:46:53.960 never be prepared for life, that is going to be self-evident that we are wrong and the

01:46:59.540 cry room is right.

01:47:00.800 Yeah.

01:47:01.360 I mean, the first step was to kill common sense and reason and they've successfully done

01:47:06.500 that.

01:47:06.900 Are we not seeing this exact process happen with gender right now?

01:47:09.980 Yes.

01:47:10.400 Right?

01:47:10.640 Like, gender, like, again, like, there was an idea, there's never, it's never been about

01:47:14.280 hating someone or anything like that.

01:47:15.940 It's just like, it's always been, there's been two genders and that's the way it was. 1.00

01:47:19.140 Well, X and Y.

01:47:19.760 And there was a, right, chromosomes, right?

01:47:21.520 Like, and you'd think that eventually the chromosome thing works, it plays out and people understand

01:47:25.700 that that's what it is despite the crazy things that people would say.

01:47:29.440 And what happens now is it just keeps moving down that road and for a while, I mean, if

01:47:35.040 you go back 20 years, you'll see comedians like crazy making fun of concepts like this.

01:47:39.540 They would mock them, the idea that there were a hundred genders. 0.96

01:47:43.660 You don't know.

01:47:44.140 Now it's only crazy conservatives who say 95 genders is not correct.

01:47:49.460 And in 10 years.

01:47:50.180 Right, because I believe there are, hear me carefully, I think there are 250 genders. 0.62

01:47:55.080 I'm not part of these guys, they're haters.

01:47:57.320 And in 10 years, people will be like, do you know at one point they believed there were

01:48:01.920 only 250 genders? 0.99

01:48:04.600 It's true.

01:48:05.220 This will happen.

01:48:06.340 It's true.

01:48:06.960 It's amazing.

01:48:07.520 Can you believe they actually believed in genders at one point?

01:48:10.880 Yeah.

01:48:11.220 Do you see the fashion show that happened in London or Paris this weekend?

01:48:14.120 I did not.

01:48:14.660 With the guys who were wearing prosthetic bellies because we live in a world now where men can 0.99

01:48:23.640 have children.

01:48:24.640 Thank you, finally.

01:48:25.280 And I mean, I've appeared pregnant for years and I believe in that completely.

01:48:31.800 I don't have to wear prosthetics.

01:48:33.260 I just cannot seem to give birth to this thing.

01:48:36.080 Anyway, imagine taking a test on a hundred day or a car on a hundred day test drive, getting

01:48:42.120 a pair of new shoes, walking around a hundred days.

01:48:44.200 My wife wouldn't make it for a hundred minutes in the shoes she buys. 1.00

01:48:47.920 And then she buys these shoes.

01:48:48.780 She's like, I have got to get back to my closet.

01:48:52.420 You're in the kitchen.

01:48:53.080 And I've got to take these shoes off.

01:48:55.280 I've been wearing them since the closet to the kitchen.

01:48:57.980 Oh, my gosh.

01:48:58.620 Stop wearing them.

01:48:59.620 They're uncomfortable.

01:49:01.360 Anyway, Casper is giving you a hundred nights to test the Casper mattress in your own home

01:49:06.920 with their 100 night sleep challenge.

01:49:09.280 A hundred nights.

01:49:10.300 A hundred nights.

01:49:11.580 I've done it.

01:49:12.420 Um, I love mine.

01:49:14.420 It took me about, about a week.

01:49:16.440 I didn't like it at first, kept sleeping on it.

01:49:19.040 This is the problem that you have when you're in a store, you find the one that you're comfortable

01:49:22.980 in, but that's not what you're comfortable in night after night, after night, after night,

01:49:27.180 because, you know, all of a sudden you're like, this is way too soft.

01:49:30.560 My back is killing me or whatever it is.

01:49:33.360 That's why Casper has a better idea.

01:49:35.700 Try it in your home for a hundred nights.

01:49:37.720 If you don't love it, they will ship it back for free.

01:49:42.060 They'll pick it up.

01:49:43.180 It's not a problem.

01:49:44.760 No questions asked.

01:49:46.360 The choice is, are you going to get a good night's sleep or not?

01:50:04.740 The California, six Californias or three state solution for California, breaking it up into

01:50:15.320 three states, actually got onto the ballots yesterday, and it should prove interesting

01:50:21.380 to see exactly what happens.

01:50:23.800 Also, some news from Venezuela.

01:50:26.180 They are talking now about dollarizing and getting rid of their currency.

01:50:31.640 Well, that's the opposition plan.

01:50:32.680 The Maduro plan is just taking three zeros off the end of the money.

01:50:36.780 So 250,000 would just be 250.

01:50:39.420 Oh, that sounds a lot easier.

01:50:40.720 And zeros aren't worth anything.

01:50:42.320 Yeah, they're nothing.

01:50:43.020 They're zeros.

01:50:44.320 That's a better plan.

01:50:45.840 It's much easier.

01:50:46.760 Just move a decimal point even over a few slots.

01:50:48.980 Right.

01:50:49.480 That's all.

01:50:50.080 Make it 25 cents.

01:50:51.220 Then everybody's rich.
