00:00:00.720 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:00:05.940 Hey, welcome to the program. Glad you're here.
00:00:09.140 We've got a little update on Miley Cyrus and her cake licking for abortion.
00:00:17.240 What is happening now with the death culture in the Netherlands?
00:00:23.180 They just euthanized a 17 year old because she was raped and it was causing her too much mental anguish.
00:00:30.520 So they killed her at her request. It's unbelievable.
00:00:35.880 The media is starting to turn now on Joe Biden. What a surprise.
00:00:40.840 Apparently he's not socialist enough for them, at least at this point.
00:00:45.220 And I have to tell you the story about the guy who was driving to the lottery office to pick up his $50,000 check because he had picked his lottery numbers by using a fortune cookie.

00:01:07.260 Well, security researchers recently discovered hackers have breached an analytics service with an open source project modifying files to embed malicious codes on over 4,600 websites.
00:01:22.840 So that's no big deal. Hopefully you haven't gone to one of those websites.
00:01:27.320 The malicious code can log content users information into data fields secretly and then sends the information to a server located in Panama.
00:01:36.820 But what could go wrong?
00:01:40.040 Your information is, I mean, very well could be already on the on the Internet, the dark Web for sale or in use.

00:02:45.600 I'm on my on my way as a swinging bachelor who is married on my way, driving to the the lottery office to pick up my $50,000 check.
00:02:57.180 Now, this is what this guy in North Carolina was doing.
00:03:01.600 He he said he was he went to play Powerball and his granddaughter had given him a fortune cookie.
00:03:10.120 And on the bottom of the fortune cookie were numbers.
00:03:12.960 So he decided, you know what, I'm going to play those numbers.
00:03:16.640 And so he did somehow or another, when he was on his way to pick up what he thought was $50,000.
00:03:24.820 It turns out it was a little more.
00:03:27.320 And as he's looking at the numbers now, he doesn't watch TV, he says.
00:03:31.180 So he doesn't pay attention to any of this.
00:03:34.120 And he saw as he I guess as he was driving, he saw the numbers for the Powerball.
00:03:44.120 And he realizes, I think I won more.
00:03:47.720 Now, he didn't know how much he had no idea.
00:03:50.480 He just played Powerball.
00:03:51.880 He didn't know what the jackpot was, nothing his his granddaughter just giving him some numbers.
00:03:56.920 So he just played it.
00:03:58.260 So he's on the way and he calls up the office and he's like, you know what?
00:04:01.440 I think I have.
00:04:03.820 I think I have all of the numbers.
00:04:06.140 I was coming in to pick up 50,000.
00:04:08.240 I think it might be more.
00:04:09.280 I think I have all of the numbers.
00:04:11.300 And they said, yeah, you do.
00:04:15.260 And he said, wow, how much is it worth?
00:04:19.320 How much is it worth?
00:04:21.540 They said, well, more than 50,000.
00:04:23.600 It's 344 million.
00:04:28.220 Quote, he said, quote, dang, I got them all.
00:04:35.440 I love that.
00:04:37.440 He said he called his he called his wife and said, you ain't going to believe this, but I got it all.
00:04:44.940 Now, he says he hopes that the windfalls don't change him.
00:04:48.020 He's going to give a million dollars to his brother.
00:04:50.200 I mean, how about something for granddaughter?
00:04:52.100 I mean, she was the one that brought you the cookie million dollars to his brother to make good on a deal.
00:04:57.600 Apparently, they may donate to charities, yada, yada, yada.
00:05:01.360 He took the lump sum of two hundred and twenty three million dollars.
00:05:05.540 He said, I'm still going to wear my jeans.
00:05:08.260 Just maybe I'll wear some newer ones.
00:05:10.920 It's fantastic.
00:05:12.040 I don't understand, though.
00:05:12.980 If you if you win fifty thousand dollars, I think that does that mean you've won?
00:05:16.700 You've hit five or I don't know how many numbers you've hit, but you've hit a lot of the numbers.
00:05:21.840 Right.
00:05:22.540 Aren't you sitting there staring at that thing a hundred times when you've hit for fifty thousand dollars to check it?
00:05:27.800 And you miss the fact that you won three hundred million dollars?
00:05:31.680 Well, maybe maybe it was the Powerball number that he didn't check because he wasn't he's not a lotto player.
00:05:36.240 Right.
00:05:36.320 He's not he wasn't playing it for the Powerball.
00:05:38.720 He just, you know, probably went into a convenience store, put those numbers in and just saw, oh, wow, I got the five right.
00:05:44.720 And didn't I don't know.
00:05:46.120 I don't know how that happened.
00:05:47.600 Yeah.
00:05:47.900 But he he wasn't playing it, you know, to win the three hundred and forty four million.
00:05:53.720 He he had no idea how much it was worth.
00:05:56.380 That's incredible.
00:05:58.260 That's a good day.
00:05:59.020 It's the type of thing that if I'm working at the lottery, you know, the headquarters and someone calls me and says, I think I won fifty thousand dollars.
00:06:06.100 But I'm looking at the numbers.
00:06:06.800 I think I have them all.
00:06:08.340 What I say is come directly to my desk and I will give you the fifty thousand dollars in exchange for the ticket.
00:06:13.760 And then you leave immediately.
00:06:15.240 Just ask for me.
00:06:16.360 Yes.
00:06:16.820 Don't go to someone else because they might do.
00:06:18.700 You don't know what's going to happen.
00:06:20.120 You can trust me around here.
00:06:21.960 And then you take the you give them fifty grand somehow.
00:06:25.960 I might give him fifty one.
00:06:28.060 Yeah, we're giving you a tip.
00:06:29.100 Yeah.
00:06:29.380 I just want you to know you're getting a great deal here.
00:06:31.480 And he walks out.
00:06:32.660 You turn it in.
00:06:33.920 344 mil.
00:06:34.680 Yeah, that's the way to play that.
00:06:36.120 I think I'd still take the lump sum because the officials might be coming to look for me.
00:06:40.680 So I'd take the lump sum.
00:06:43.120 And when I say I, it would be somebody else not related to me that would show up for the check.
00:06:47.840 I'm just saying, why do we sit here every time and talk about it as if it's 344 million when it's really 223 million?
00:06:54.600 Well, it's not even.
00:06:55.800 Wait, wait, wait.
00:06:56.300 It's not even that.
00:06:56.980 You can take the 344 over 20 years or whatever.
00:07:00.380 It's just a silly, you know, like, yeah, we'll give you.
00:07:03.000 First of all, almost everyone takes the lump sum, which there's some question about whether that's a good idea for some people.
00:07:09.020 I think most people.
00:07:10.900 Yeah.
00:07:11.200 I mean, there's been some, because it's always been statistically you should take the 223 million because it pays off in the long term.
00:07:19.820 But they see the way that people use it.
00:07:21.220 And it's like, maybe you should be guaranteed a payment next year.
00:07:24.040 Maybe that's a good thing.
00:07:24.820 In 19 years, there's still a payment coming in.
00:07:27.580 I think that's, there's a question about that one.
00:07:30.000 I think if I believed in, if I believed that money and these, and these states and lotteries and everything else would actually stand, then I probably would take it over time.
00:07:39.300 It would be stupid to do it, but I would probably take it over time because I'd be like, I don't know.
00:07:44.100 I mean, I want something left for my kids.
00:07:46.460 And we, you know, $250 million.
00:07:49.080 I could see myself going, what?
00:07:51.240 It's only $50 million.
00:07:53.140 You know, five times, six times.
00:07:56.060 Right.
00:07:56.280 Someone's going to scam you into a real estate investment that doesn't exist.
00:07:59.720 Right.
00:08:00.200 You know?
00:08:00.740 Yes.
00:08:01.440 But I mean, I just, they always say this, $344 million.
00:08:04.340 It's like, let's be honest about it.
00:08:05.380 It's $223 million.
00:08:06.600 Well, if you want to take it over a very long period of time, you'll get interest, essentially.
00:08:11.800 Right?
00:08:12.040 But again, you have to also factor in inflation and all those other things.
00:08:14.800 A payment in 20 years is a lot different than a payment today.
00:08:18.180 Well, but let's be real.
00:08:19.380 I mean, why do we say it's $223 million when it's actually about $112?
00:08:25.920 That's true.
00:08:26.780 Where does he live again?
00:08:27.940 He lives in North Carolina.
00:08:29.720 Yeah, that's not, you're going to lose a lot.
00:08:31.660 You're going to lose.
00:08:32.220 You're going to lose about half.
00:08:33.340 You're going to have a 40%.
00:08:34.180 Yeah.
00:08:34.400 At the end of the day, you're going to lose around half of it.
00:08:36.460 Right.
00:08:37.040 And then, of course, every time you spend it, you lose more.
00:08:39.820 And this is a depressing story.
00:08:41.820 It is.
00:08:42.320 Yes.
00:08:42.620 We've ruined it.
00:08:43.060 You've read this story.
00:08:44.820 We had a happy grandfather who had retired.
00:08:49.020 You know.
00:08:49.400 This guy's life is over is what I'm saying.
00:08:52.300 Boy, it'd hate to be you, Jack.
00:08:53.980 I hope you can buy a nice coffin with it.
00:09:00.040 Oh, I'm sorry.
00:09:01.140 I tried to start.
00:09:02.240 Look, and he wrecked it.
00:09:03.360 Okay.
00:09:03.600 Let me try this.
00:09:04.480 Let me try this.
00:09:05.480 Here's a guy that should not win the lottery.
00:09:09.780 Tracy Morgan.
00:09:11.600 Comedian?
00:09:12.280 Yes.
00:09:12.780 Okay.
00:09:12.960 Who would have thunk that Tracy Morgan would go out and buy a new Bugatti?
00:09:20.380 Okay.
00:09:20.700 But he bought a new Bugatti, and it was $2 million.
00:09:24.520 And he bought it at Bugatti in Manhattan.
00:09:27.520 Now, here's your first.
00:09:28.980 He's not shopping around for the lower-priced Bugatti, apparently.
00:09:32.600 Now, here's the thing.
00:09:34.160 If you're buying a Bugatti, don't live in Manhattan.
00:09:39.480 What are you going to do?
00:09:40.620 You're going to drive it three and a half miles an hour?
00:09:42.520 Right.
00:09:43.460 In stop-and-go traffic with giant potholes and people, you know, hitting, you know, in
00:09:48.000 the, hey, back up.
00:09:49.660 I'm going to ride away here.
00:09:51.040 I mean, it's not a pleasant place to be with any car.
00:09:54.800 It sucks to drive there anyway.
00:09:56.400 Yeah.
00:09:56.620 With a Bugatti, I can't imagine, especially with that gigantic engine.
00:10:00.620 We're talking about 1,000 horsepower and that thing, trying to do a manual shift going
00:10:04.680 around, you know, 44th Street.
00:10:06.860 Like, that's not a good...
00:10:07.460 You know, it's just ridiculous.
00:10:08.620 It's just ridiculous.
00:10:09.820 Okay.
00:10:10.000 So, um, he, he, he was driving his car for about 10 minutes in Manhattan.
00:10:19.560 He just closed your eyes because you know what's coming.
00:10:21.660 Oh, what did he do?
00:10:22.420 10 minutes.
00:10:23.960 Nothing.
00:10:24.840 A woman in a late model Honda CRV tried to make a right turn from the left lane and crashed
00:10:33.960 into his Bugatti and scraped it and graded against the entire side.
00:10:39.180 He gets out of the car and he's like, what were you thinking?
00:10:46.380 She was like, I don't know.
00:10:48.940 He's like, this is, I've had this car for 10 minutes and it's a Bugatti.
00:10:57.480 Oh, I'm sorry.
00:10:58.580 It looks pretty.
00:10:59.300 What does that mean?
00:11:00.500 It's a $2 million car.
00:11:03.120 Oh, my gosh.
00:11:05.500 So, he literally had it for about 30 minutes from the time he drove off the lot and signed
00:11:14.340 the deal, 30 minutes total before she took and just destroyed his Bugatti.
00:11:23.080 She's got insurance though, right?
00:11:25.420 I mean, she's got liability insurance, surely, that will cover.
00:11:29.080 I'm sure that will cover the $1.89 million car.
00:11:33.420 Oh, God.
00:11:34.380 It's beautiful too.
00:11:35.180 Oh, I know.
00:11:36.240 It's a convertible.
00:11:37.200 So, it's not only, it's used.
00:11:40.020 So, you got to expect some dings.
00:11:42.440 It's used.
00:11:43.680 So, that's why it was $1.8 million.
00:11:45.820 This was cheap for the Bugatti because it's a convertible, which apparently is very rare.
00:11:52.680 Very rare, right.
00:11:53.380 And so, he's driving it for the first 10 minutes.
00:11:57.760 I think that's worse than the worst lottery winner.
00:12:02.280 I mean, because that just shows how stupid you are.
00:12:04.960 Don't buy a Bugatti in Manhattan.
00:12:06.700 Especially if you're Tracy Morgan, who should stay out of all automobiles, right?
00:12:11.040 Like, he was the guy who, he almost died in a massive car crash.
00:12:15.120 Like, his, why are you even getting, you should live in the city.
00:12:18.760 I don't remember that.
00:12:19.440 Oh, my God.
00:12:19.960 That's his whole, that's the, you know, he was, you know, because he did Saturday Night Live
00:12:22.960 and he was on 30 Rock, right?
00:12:24.160 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:12:24.520 Like, he had, like, you know, a bunch of stuff and he almost got killed.
00:12:26.540 It was in, I think, 2014-ish.
00:12:30.320 Oh, wow.
00:12:30.840 And he was almost killed in a giant wreck.
00:12:33.240 It was on the New Jersey Turnpike.
00:12:35.220 Get out of that area.
00:12:36.620 Yeah, get, leave.
00:12:37.960 Get out of that area.
00:12:38.860 Here's an idea.
00:12:39.700 Iowa.
00:12:41.000 Okay?
00:12:42.060 Kansas.
00:12:42.780 Here's an idea.
00:12:44.220 Subways.
00:12:45.360 If you're going to live there, take a subway.
00:12:47.500 It's a scary thing when the subway is the safe alternative.
00:12:49.840 I'm telling you, we lived, we lived in New York for a while.
00:12:52.680 The last thing you want is a nice car.
00:12:54.740 What you do is you just go buy a junker because I literally saw, I literally saw a car take
00:13:02.860 the bumper, the front bumper off of a taxi cab at about 65 miles an hour on, I think it
00:13:14.900 was, I think it was like 42nd Street and it's just barely, it was like two o'clock in the
00:13:20.540 morning and I'm walking down the street and I see this car, there's nothing, it's all green
00:13:26.220 lights and I see this, this, this car, it was actually the reverse.
00:13:30.500 It was a car and a taxi cab came up behind it and this car was just, you know, an out
00:13:36.180 of town person like, I don't know, 42nd Street, I'm trying to find 41st, where is that?
00:13:41.500 Do I take a left?
00:13:42.680 And so it's just puttering down the street and this cab comes and it just clips it.
00:13:47.040 It's, it's gotta be going 60, 70 miles an hour and it just clips the front of this car
00:13:51.920 and the bumpers catch on each other and it pulls the bumper off the other car.
00:13:57.520 And so now the bumper is just kind of like spinning in the middle of the road.
00:14:01.640 The guy in the cab didn't even tap on his brakes.
00:14:05.780 That's, that's Manhattan, okay?
00:14:07.740 You buy a crappy car and you park it and when you come back and it's like burned to the ground
00:14:13.400 and everything is gone, you're like, huh?
00:14:15.700 And you move on.
00:14:17.040 Right, exactly.
00:14:17.700 Just move on.
00:14:18.600 You go to walk down the street in New York, you'll see those little rubber like things
00:14:22.680 that you put in your trunk and they hang over your bumper because you, your bumper gets
00:14:26.580 hit randomly so often.
00:14:28.820 Right.
00:14:29.140 That you, people just protect, when they park, they put a little piece of rubber just hang
00:14:32.980 over there so hopefully the car, I guess, bounces off and doesn't cause damage.
00:14:35.440 You just need like a, you need Nerf, you just need a Nerf car.
00:14:38.820 Yeah.
00:14:39.620 You know, just, just take a piece of crap and then take a bunch of Nerf footballs and just
00:14:45.000 tape them all around your car.
00:14:47.080 And you have a chance that when you get out of New York, you still have a really crappy
00:14:51.760 car with tape marks where you, and that's good.
00:14:56.560 That's a good way to get out of New York with your car.
00:15:01.600 Bugatti.
00:15:05.840 All right.
00:15:06.980 Well, let me tell you about, um, let me tell you about Norton security.
00:15:10.460 The Norton secure VPN is now available and a VPN is a virtual private network.
00:15:15.060 And you, you know what one of these are is because every time you ever watched Benji
00:15:20.620 do anything, when he's on an impossible mission with the impossible mission force, uh, Benji
00:15:27.020 is always using a VPN.
00:15:29.100 That's why they can't trace him.
00:15:31.060 They never know where he is.
00:15:33.460 Um, a VPN is really good.
00:15:36.160 Not, you know, not if you don't have to be an international spy.
00:15:40.020 Uh, what you have to be is somebody who is sick of Facebook and Google tracking everything
00:15:46.200 you do.
00:15:47.300 Uh, you have to be somebody who just doesn't want people to come in and steal the stuff
00:15:52.060 off of your, uh, computer because you're really in effect, not using your computer.
00:15:57.140 You're using a virtual private network.
00:15:59.560 And so they can't, they can't really trace it back.
00:16:02.700 And, uh, it's good for security.
00:16:05.880 Good for your security.
00:16:08.120 This is something that everybody now thinks, well, I don't have a problem with that.
00:16:11.560 And you will, you will, maybe you don't buy it today, but you're going to buy it year
00:16:15.880 or two.
00:16:16.280 You're going to have one.
00:16:17.340 Everyone's going to have one because you have to, if you're smart, you get one.
00:16:22.140 Now a Norton secure VPN now protection starts at about $3 and 33 cents a month.
00:16:28.800 Just head to Norton.com slash VPN.
00:16:32.660 That's Norton.com slash VPN.
00:16:36.320 10 seconds.
00:16:37.020 Station ID.
00:16:37.440 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:16:52.640 I'm really looking forward to talking to, uh, Laura Logan.
00:16:56.300 Yeah.
00:16:56.780 I really like her.
00:16:57.820 She's, she's saying some pretty interesting things.
00:17:00.240 I mean, uh, you know, this is a, you know, highly respected journalist to 60 minutes, 60
00:17:05.840 minutes and all sorts of stuff.
00:17:07.440 Uh, and lately has been saying some things a little critical of the world of journalism
00:17:11.560 to the point to where it's sad.
00:17:17.040 It's really sad that she looks almost crazy for saying it only because you're looking at
00:17:22.580 her going, you're not going to survive.
00:17:24.420 How are you going to survive?
00:17:26.420 You know, she is, she is so blunt and so straightforward.
00:17:32.500 Um, and the, exactly the kind of journalists, all journalists should be, but that is
00:17:37.420 so rare now it makes it, she looks like a solar flare, you know?
00:17:42.500 Yeah.
00:17:42.880 It just looks like, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, what's happening over there?
00:17:45.640 And all she's saying is, I don't know, maybe we should check the facts.
00:17:49.940 Maybe not be biased.
00:17:51.460 Maybe not be biased.
00:17:52.560 Or at least admit our bias.
00:17:54.360 Yeah.
00:17:54.860 Well, she just did some reporting, uh, on the border and, uh, was showing that maybe things
00:17:59.640 are more of a crisis than the rest of the media seems to think that they are.
00:18:03.280 I can't wait to talk to her about that.
00:18:04.780 Yeah.
00:18:05.160 I mean, cause she was there.
00:18:05.960 She did, I think, uh, she, she's working with Sherry.
00:18:08.080 She did some reporting for Sheryl Atkinson's, uh, show and, uh, you know, went into real depth
00:18:13.400 on the border and what was going on down there.
00:18:15.240 And, uh, you know, it's a core, of course, totally different picture than what everyone
00:18:18.160 else is showing.
00:18:19.720 And isn't it amazing that there are two women, both, I think from CBS.
00:18:24.400 That's right.
00:18:24.940 Yeah.
00:18:25.060 Cheryl was from CBS too, wasn't she?
00:18:27.000 Yeah.
00:18:27.360 And they were both really credible national reporters.
00:18:31.360 And still are.
00:18:32.460 And still are.
00:18:33.080 But no, I mean for CBS though.
00:18:35.180 And she was on 60 minutes.
00:18:36.560 Laura was on 60 minutes, which, you know, that was the pinnacle.
00:18:39.460 You got to 60 minutes.
00:18:40.500 You were certainly credible for Oprah Winfrey.
00:18:42.860 She was CBS News's chief foreign affairs correspondent for 13 years.
00:18:48.360 Wow.
00:18:49.220 Uh, that's, uh, not, you know.
00:18:50.960 And look how she's being treated now.
00:18:52.620 Yeah.
00:18:53.000 Well, yeah, you know, this is what happens when you break, when you break, I mean, you
00:18:57.360 know, she's always been a good reporter though.
00:18:58.780 I mean, it's not like, uh, anything, anything is new.
00:19:01.160 Look at this, I mean, looking at these, uh, this list of awards, it's like half a page.
00:19:06.080 You know, she was, she was, uh, very highly respected and, and, and all, and I think
00:19:12.200 still is, but she's just now, now that she's taking on her industry, you know, that support
00:19:18.740 is going to erode quickly, right?
00:19:20.900 You're not, you're just not supposed to say things.
00:19:23.060 It's like, you know, it's like that, you know, every media source would be critical of the
00:19:27.160 thin blue line, right?
00:19:28.240 Like that you're not supposed to say, you're not supposed to talk about that.
00:19:31.080 Well, this is the same thing that journalists have, right?
00:19:33.160 They all close ranks.
00:19:34.240 I mean, the fact that you saw them closing ranks around this ridiculous daily beast report
00:19:38.140 the other day where they came out and they were like, Hey, this day laborer from New
00:19:42.540 York city, let's ruin his life because he posted the Nancy Pelosi slightly slowed down video.
00:19:49.240 Uh, and they went and did an expose on his life and showed his picture and said all the
00:19:53.160 jobs he's had and seen and highlighted his, uh, in, uh, relationship troubles and his criminal,
00:19:58.480 uh, brushes with, with the law and on and on and on and on, just trying to destroy this
00:20:04.360 guy's life at any cost.
00:20:05.400 And he's like, he's, you know, look, I'm sure, you know, I don't know other than what
00:20:08.640 I read the report.
00:20:09.200 I don't know anything about the guy, but he does not seem like, um, uh, a power player in
00:20:14.820 the United States.
00:20:15.640 And the fact that he, he posted a video slightly critical or mocking of Nancy Pelosi, one of the
00:20:22.120 most powerful people in the world.
00:20:24.700 And then he's the one getting the expose about him, not Nancy, Nancy, no one, no one, you
00:20:30.300 know, no one questions anything.
00:20:31.640 She does just, is she going to impeachment fast enough is about the hardest question she's
00:20:35.580 ever received.
00:20:36.800 And instead they go and they do this expose of this poor guy.
00:20:40.440 Who's a day laborer in New York city.
00:20:42.800 Uh, and again, imagine the reverse, an African American day laborer here, uh, that the left
00:20:48.480 can go after.
00:20:49.040 Or imagine if conserve, some conservative media source was outing African Americans, uh, who
00:20:55.200 are powerless in our society.
00:20:56.940 What, you know, then we get plenty of reporting on it.
00:20:59.560 You're not supposed to do that.
00:21:00.680 I mean, and reporters rallied around the daily beast guy saying, Oh, this is absolutely valuable
00:21:05.040 information about this guy.
00:21:06.100 Cause we might be able to hire him for $8 an hour next week.
00:21:09.060 It's ridiculous.
00:21:11.740 So you're not supposed to do this.
00:21:12.980 And Laura's doing it.
00:21:13.780 And, uh, she will be joining us in about 30 minutes, Laura Logan, uh, on the program.
00:21:23.640 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
00:21:26.400 Okay.
00:21:26.840 Out of all the things you have to worry about, what, what, what do you really have to worry
00:21:32.040 about?
00:21:32.960 I mean, you've got a laundry list of things to worry about.
00:21:36.420 The biggest thing I worry about are my kids.
00:21:39.220 I worry about my kids.
00:21:40.420 I worry about, you know, what their life is going to be like.
00:21:43.240 I, and then you have all these other things that you worry about what that's going to happen
00:21:48.040 with the election.
00:21:48.700 What's going to happen with this?
00:21:50.460 What's going to happen with my job?
00:21:52.120 Uh, what, what are my kids even looking at on the internet, et cetera, et cetera.
00:21:57.080 Do you know most Americans over terrorism, mugging any, when it comes to crime, most Americans
00:22:03.160 are worried about somebody breaking into their house.

00:22:39.780 Welcome to the program.
00:22:40.900 Mr. Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed, the podcast that you can hear and download anywhere
00:22:45.480 you hear a podcast.
00:22:47.020 Hello, Pat.
00:22:47.820 Hello, Glenn.
00:22:48.240 So you are, you are unleashed about, uh, well, I, I was kind of interested in the fact that,
00:22:55.980 uh, Lou Dobbs is calling out Republicans, uh, for being traitors because they're not supporting,
00:23:02.560 uh, Donald Trump's tariffs.
00:23:05.380 And I thought when, since when are Republicans traitors for being free trade people?
00:23:14.480 What time did that monologue happen?
00:23:19.620 Uh, you know, I, they're cowards and traitors and they are, uh, committing suicide and bringing
00:23:27.700 down the country with them.
00:23:29.060 Well, I mean, I will say that Lou Dobbs has always been a tariff guy, uh, from back in
00:23:33.660 the day.
00:23:33.960 I mean, he was never been a conservative, but he's always been a big tariff guy going back
00:23:39.320 to his years at CNN.
00:23:40.160 But he knows for a fact that Republicans have not been tariff people.
00:23:43.620 No, of course.
00:23:44.240 How do you not at least include that in the analysis, right?
00:23:46.640 I mean, he doesn't, he doesn't, he doesn't bake that into anything.
00:23:50.040 It's been the exact opposite position of every one of these people that's been elected for
00:23:53.320 the past 50 years.
00:23:54.360 And, you know, of course, obviously the pro union left has been the ones asking for
00:23:58.460 tariffs all this time.
00:23:59.840 Uh, so they're talking, they say that the, the tariffs as, as requested by Trump, if,
00:24:05.920 if implemented, and again, we hope this is a, which ones, the Mexican, the Mexican,
00:24:09.740 just the Mexican ones, if implemented.
00:24:12.040 And then we hope it's a negotiation.
00:24:13.380 We know how this stuff works.
00:24:14.840 Uh, cause you know, Trump threatens these things and hopefully they don't come to pass,
00:24:18.380 but if they do, it would be the largest tax increase in 35 years.
00:24:22.500 Wow.
00:24:23.160 Really?
00:24:23.500 That's a big number.
00:24:24.500 Yeah, it is.
00:24:24.960 Now, of course that is on top of other tariffs.
00:24:27.880 In addition, it's on top of a big tax cut, right?
00:24:31.220 So it's, it doesn't mean that we, when he started to when we would be here would be the biggest
00:24:35.300 tax increase, but from where we are right now to the end of these Mexican tariffs would
00:24:39.260 be the biggest tax increase in 35 years.
00:24:41.120 And I just don't, I don't know why, you know, again, like this is, I know something he believes
00:24:45.300 and it's something that, you know, conservatives have disagreed with the entire time I've been
00:24:49.980 alive.
00:24:50.400 But, but, but until now, until now that they have all fallen apart, they, I mean, the arguments
00:24:56.700 have completely fallen apart.
00:24:58.060 We won that one.
00:24:59.400 We won that one.
00:25:00.780 Even the Democrats were against tariffs, you know, I mean, it was, it was not some, it was
00:25:06.680 old think and, and, you know, I'm, I'm, I'm happy to see, first of all, aren't tariffs
00:25:14.280 something that the president needs the Senate for?
00:25:18.120 No, I mean, tariffs.
00:25:20.540 So he's going to do it.
00:25:21.500 The way he's going to do this is interesting.
00:25:23.400 And, and one, another reason why it's going to be a problem.
00:25:25.940 He's basically going to have to do another emergency declaration to get the tariffs through.
00:25:31.960 Now we know we had an issue with the last one and a lot of our listeners did as well.
00:25:35.160 And that like, we really think the border is a big deal.
00:25:37.380 We really want the wall, but like, is this the right way to do it?
00:25:40.340 If you remember a bunch of Republicans voted against him on that, just not enough to get
00:25:44.420 to override the video veto here.
00:25:46.960 You have a serious issue where apparently in the meeting, there were no people, no senators
00:25:53.580 on Trump's side in the meeting when it comes to, when it came to the tariffs.
00:25:57.840 And this is something that should go through Congress, but he's trying to circumvent that
00:26:01.680 process again.
00:26:02.580 Well, well he might, I mean, sort of.
00:26:04.940 Yeah.
00:26:05.120 I mean, cause again, like trade authority in the constitution is Congress.
00:26:08.300 Yeah.
00:26:08.500 It's supposed to be through Congress.
00:26:09.660 Congress gave a lot of this authority to the president.
00:26:13.000 However, the president has to justify it.
00:26:15.440 So to justify it, his, his approach here is going to likely be, and we don't know for
00:26:20.600 sure.
00:26:20.920 He hasn't released this certainty, but this is what the White House sources are saying
00:26:24.940 is that he would have to go through another emergency declaration, which would either be
00:26:29.100 amending the one that already exists or creating a brand new emergency declaration.
00:26:33.440 So again, the Congress would have a chance to override it.
00:26:37.420 There is no evidence that Republicans would stand up to him, to the numbers to, to get
00:26:43.000 to 67 votes.
00:26:44.660 And this also includes the house would have to also get to two thirds.
00:26:48.180 There's no evidence on any issue that they would stand up to Trump on that.
00:26:53.220 So, I mean, like they, they, most of this is them just talking a big game.
00:26:56.300 They want to say they're trying to hopefully influence Trump before these things go into
00:27:00.660 effect.
00:27:01.080 Maybe they can move him.
00:27:01.900 Maybe they can delay them.
00:27:02.880 These are the games that they play.
00:27:04.580 In reality, is the Republican Congress going to over overturn a veto from Donald Trump on
00:27:09.500 anything?
00:27:10.320 I think the answer to that is no.
00:27:11.760 I don't, especially, they all talk a big game, but they, they're not going to do that.
00:27:14.340 And like, you know, a lot of the stuff they shouldn't be overturning.
00:27:17.000 Trump's done a lot of really good things.
00:27:18.300 This one in particular though, is been against the philosophy of the party for at least 50 years.
00:27:23.620 So the, the, the problem is, is that you, you, uh, Donald Trump is under such attack
00:27:30.160 right now, uh, and has been the whole time that anything that even sounds like you're
00:27:37.120 against him, you're immediately tossed to the side.
00:27:41.140 Yeah, that's true.
00:27:42.280 There's, you know, I came out for Justin Amash just, just to say, I think he's a good guy
00:27:46.680 and I think he believes in the constitution.
00:27:48.280 Which is all true, by the way.
00:27:50.400 I'm against impeachment and what he said about impeachment and I'm against him running in
00:27:56.080 2020.
00:27:57.580 That doesn't seem to matter.
00:27:58.700 Not to Breitbart or anybody else.
00:28:00.340 They're just saying, oh, Glenn Beck wants impeachment.
00:28:02.380 No, no, no.
00:28:03.520 Are you on the Trump train or on, or not?
00:28:05.900 Well, all we're saying, maybe I'm not on anybody's train.
00:28:08.300 I'm not on anybody's train.
00:28:09.440 Justin Amash is a solid conservative.
00:28:12.640 He's a solid conservative.
00:28:14.000 He has his problems.
00:28:15.020 He has some things that I disagree with.
00:28:16.740 You know, when it comes to Israel, et cetera, et cetera, I disagree with those things,
00:28:20.240 but I'm fine with that.
00:28:21.620 We should disagree with things.
00:28:23.840 I mean, we can't, you'll never be in lockstep with everybody, but that doesn't mean.
00:28:28.860 But he's got a hundred percent rating from FreedomWorks.
00:28:31.200 Yeah, I know, I know, I know, I know.
00:28:34.120 Yeah.
00:28:34.540 So to throw, we can't throw people away like this.
00:28:39.020 We can't throw people away.
00:28:40.340 We're eating our own and we're seeing this happen now.
00:28:43.560 Do you see how they are just coming after Joe Biden?
00:28:46.740 Yeah.
00:28:47.140 Oh my God.
00:28:47.640 Yeah.
00:28:47.780 Today there's a bunch of new stories about it.
00:28:50.620 Plagiarism.
00:28:51.380 And he's lying about the civil rights marching.
00:28:55.000 He is.
00:28:55.300 All of that.
00:28:55.800 There was the editorial that came out about how, you know, we need a JFK.
00:29:00.620 We need a younger guy with vision.
00:29:02.880 This is, we don't need another Hillary Clinton.
00:29:05.760 I mean, they are coming after him.
00:29:08.000 They also dug up a, when he was 29 years old and running, that he used all these attacks
00:29:13.420 against his opponent and how old he was.
00:29:15.500 Yeah.
00:29:15.860 Like, you know, they're like, my opponent was fighting polio.
00:29:19.340 I'm fighting, you know, like, it's totally ridiculous.
00:29:23.580 And he wound up winning the race by, I think, 3,000 votes.
00:29:26.240 It was a very close race.
00:29:27.860 But yeah, they, I mean, look, you expect a field of 24.
00:29:31.160 They realize he's ahead.
00:29:32.480 The latest polls have him, his lead shrinking a little bit.
00:29:35.040 So it'll be interesting to see if any of this stuff works.
00:29:37.620 32-18 is the last one I've seen.
00:29:39.160 Still a nice big lead.
00:29:40.040 Still.
00:29:40.340 He's still.
00:29:41.080 14 points.
00:29:41.900 It's his to lose, right?
00:29:43.700 Yes.
00:29:43.980 If he was a great candidate, then.
00:29:46.360 Which he's not.
00:29:46.920 Which he's not.
00:29:47.460 He's a terrible candidate.
00:29:48.360 And he loses, you know, I mean, he's lost every time he's tried to run for president
00:29:51.780 and really been buried, you know, the other two times.
00:29:54.540 Yeah.
00:29:54.900 If he, if he has a chance, I mean, this is his chance to win.
00:29:58.620 He walks in here as a, with a massive lead.
00:30:01.060 He's got a field of 27, 24 people, 17 of which are at zero or 1%.
00:30:05.780 So, I mean, there is not a lot, like the field feels really big, but there's not a lot
00:30:09.940 of competitors there.
00:30:10.960 Even when they, when he came out for their pet project, the climate change stuff yesterday,
00:30:16.820 they bashed him on that because that was plagiarized.
00:30:20.260 He didn't give credit to the person who wrote that bill.
00:30:22.880 Did AOC have to put up with that when she released Green New Deal?
00:30:27.400 No, but they don't believe him on that.
00:30:29.420 They want a, a hardcore socialist.
00:30:32.640 Yeah, they do.
00:30:33.460 You know, they want, did you see what AOC said yesterday?
00:30:36.920 About?
00:30:37.360 About your right to a profit.
00:30:40.580 Yeah.
00:30:40.960 That it's not a right.
00:30:42.760 Before your privilege of profit comes the right to everyone having a decent house.
00:30:49.600 She's frightening.
00:30:50.480 She's terrifying.
00:30:52.160 But the people, you know, behind her are the same people behind Bernie Sanders and they're
00:30:56.260 the same people behind, you know, pretty much all of them, except for Joe Biden.
00:31:02.360 And Biden, I read, I read a very sad article the other day about how the relationship between
00:31:10.540 Biden and Obama and that like Obama apparently, you know, encouraged him pretty strongly not
00:31:17.960 to run in 2016 because they, you know, it was Hillary's thing and she's the one that's going to do this and blah, blah, blah.
00:31:25.200 So their team really came at him.
00:31:27.100 And of course, he was going through his, the death of his son.
00:31:29.580 And so he found a way to not run essentially.
00:31:32.740 And of course, like, you know, who knows what would have happened, obviously.
00:31:36.840 Yeah.
00:31:36.900 Um, now there's been these conversations, you know, you have people, a lot of the Obama people
00:31:42.660 have moved on to other campaigns.
00:31:44.160 They're working for other candidates.
00:31:46.720 Obama is not coming out and, and, uh, endorsing anyone.
00:31:51.280 He's just kind of hanging back and he's helped.
00:31:53.540 He has helped.
00:31:54.180 And this is a big thing.
00:31:55.060 He did give the 2012 email list to Joe Biden, which is huge.
00:31:59.600 I mean, as far as fundraising and everything else.
00:32:01.380 So it's not like there's been no cooperation, but like there's just, but he's not, he's not,
00:32:05.380 he's not supporting him.
00:32:06.540 Yeah.
00:32:06.760 It's other than the email list, because Obama can't Obama is looked at as, I don't think
00:32:13.220 he wants to either.
00:32:14.300 I don't think so either, but he's, he's looked at on the left is almost a Glenn Beck.
00:32:18.780 Now he is not fashionable with them at all.
00:32:22.240 No, he is not the guy who they look at him as like, you were kind of a traitor.
00:32:26.380 Like I use yourself as someone who's unfashionable.
00:32:29.840 Look, Biden's still winning the primary.
00:32:31.680 So, I mean, it's not, it's not that unfashionable.
00:32:33.580 No, no, I'm saying, I'm saying Barack Obama.
00:32:36.540 Obama, that Barack Obama is out of fashion with the left.
00:32:40.220 He's no longer.
00:32:40.880 Because he's not a socialist.
00:32:42.540 Although I think.
00:32:43.360 I think he is.
00:32:44.040 He has those tendencies.
00:32:44.940 He had the opportunity.
00:32:46.440 He wasn't a revolutionary.
00:32:47.840 Yeah.
00:32:48.220 He's got a big, I mean, his, you think about what is a picking a vice president?
00:32:52.240 It is a one person presidential election.
00:32:55.220 Barack Obama got to select essentially his successor, right?
00:32:58.980 If something happens to him, who's the one person in the, in the United States, I want
00:33:02.820 to be president.
00:33:03.280 He picked Joe Biden.
00:33:04.420 Now he's not endorsing Joe Biden.
00:33:06.000 It's pretty weird.
00:33:07.080 Like it is amazing, right?
00:33:08.460 And do you guys see when they asked him about that?
00:33:10.780 When they asked Biden, why isn't Barack Obama endorsing you?
00:33:14.440 I didn't want him to.
00:33:15.840 Yeah.
00:33:16.060 I asked him not to.
00:33:17.600 And then he said, and besides he didn't.
00:33:20.900 And then he stops himself.
00:33:22.260 Offer.
00:33:22.700 But yeah, he didn't want to endorse me.
00:33:25.720 But I told him, no, I don't want your endorsement.
00:33:28.200 I look, I want to give the rest of these kids a fighting chance.
00:33:32.080 And that would just make it too unfair.
00:33:34.100 That's ridiculous.
00:33:35.740 It's asinine.
00:33:36.960 And it is ridiculous from Obama.
00:33:38.880 Obama should be endorsing him.
00:33:40.760 He made the, he told us, he stood in front of the American people and said, hey, if
00:33:47.060 I, if I get sick, if I get injured, if I, if I, he can keep his doctor.
00:33:53.300 No, no, not that.
00:33:54.120 Oh, he cannot keep your doctor.
00:33:55.560 But you can keep Joe Biden.
00:33:57.120 If I have to leave office for whatever reason, the one person who should lead this country
00:34:01.480 is Joe Biden.
00:34:02.320 But I don't think anybody listened to that because if that was it, if I get sick, he followed
00:34:07.820 it with, I can keep my doctor.
00:34:09.460 If I get sick, you can keep Joe Biden.
00:34:14.360 We wouldn't have Obamacare today.
00:34:16.280 If that was the promise.
00:34:30.200 So Car Shield is our sponsor this half hour.
00:34:33.420 And I am for one thrilled that I have it.
00:34:37.320 Um, I have, I've used cars and, uh, there is nothing better than Car Shield.
00:34:43.560 When your warranty runs out, that's surprisingly when everything goes wrong, it's almost now.
00:34:50.320 I know this is a conspiracy theory, but that's what I'm known for.
00:34:53.320 It's almost as if our car companies, how long is the warranty?
00:34:59.720 Four years.
00:35:00.280 Okay.
00:35:00.520 Make that part to last four and a half years.
00:35:02.380 I mean, it's just, it's almost that bad.
00:35:04.420 And now you can't just go and replace things.
00:35:06.920 Now a sensor goes and it's a thousand bucks.
00:35:09.340 You need Car Shield.
00:35:11.300 You can have your car repaired easily without any fear.
00:35:15.120 All of the covered, uh, stuff you go in and if it's, if it's part of the warranty, you don't have to worry about it at all.
00:35:23.520 You can take it into your favorite, uh, dealer, or you can go to the, the, the real dealer and make sure that, you know, you got a Toyota.
00:35:30.980 It's getting the Toyota service and everything else because you're not paying for it.
00:35:35.700 So 800 car 6,000 mention the promo code back.
00:35:39.760 If you have a problem with your car, they have roadside assistance.
00:35:42.940 They also have a rental car while yours is in the shop and they pay them directly.
00:35:46.980 So you don't have to wait for a check.
00:35:48.640 It's car shield.com promo code back.
00:35:51.840 That's car shield.com promo code back.
00:35:55.320 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:35:58.800 Hey, so, uh, Chad Prather.
00:36:00.220 I don't know if you know who Chad is.
00:36:01.680 Uh, he is, he is really good.
00:36:04.000 Really, really funny.
00:36:05.560 He's a big, uh, blogger and podcaster.
00:36:08.940 Uh, and, uh, he's part of the blaze.
00:36:11.200 And he asked me to be on his show.
00:36:13.820 And here's a little snippet of the new podcast that is out today from Chad, uh, from Chad Prather.
00:36:20.980 Uh, it's on kids and their devices.
00:36:25.800 I hate it when I see it with my kids and I, I just, it makes me so sad when I see, especially
00:36:36.120 when grandparents are at the table and the kids are on their devices.
00:36:41.500 I mean, those stories, we didn't want to hear those stories either.
00:36:46.320 Most of them.
00:36:47.340 Yeah.
00:36:47.500 We were forced to sit there every Christmas and don't get up from the table.
00:36:52.140 And you listen to the stories and the family's talking, we're having dinner, sit down.
00:36:58.240 And you sat there and you listened to them and you know them because you heard them over
00:37:02.260 and over and over again.
00:37:04.520 But that is part of the, that's part of the process.
00:37:09.640 Yeah.
00:37:09.960 And now my, my kids, my, my wife's parents came down.
00:37:14.400 They have the greatest stories.
00:37:16.760 When I met her grandmother, her grandmother was from, uh, her grandmother's mother was from
00:37:21.980 Italy and they're still the talk with your hands.
00:37:26.080 Half of it is in, in Italian kind of family.
00:37:29.160 Okay.
00:37:30.420 When, when, when my wife first said to me, um, we were dating, she said, you know what?
00:37:36.920 Let's just come over, go, go over to my house or your house.
00:37:39.780 Do you have stuff to make spaghetti?
00:37:41.020 And I said, oh yeah, sure.
00:37:43.260 Came over.
00:37:44.300 I'm on the phone and she's in the kitchen and she's reading this label of ragu and, and puzzled.
00:37:51.560 And she's holding a pan and the ragu.
00:37:54.080 And I said, what's wrong?
00:37:56.280 And she said, I just opened this and put it in a pan and that's it.
00:38:03.520 And I'm like, yeah, that was the last time we ever had ragu or any kind of processed, uh, spaghetti sauce.
00:38:11.320 Uh, so she's from that family and I'm sitting with her grandmother one Christmas and we're sitting at the table.
00:38:17.440 We're the last two to get up.
00:38:19.540 And I said, how did the family get over here?
00:38:21.660 And she said, well, I'll tell you the story of my, my mother.
00:38:24.340 She said, uh, my mother was, my father was a very bad man.
00:38:30.200 And I had kind of heard about this, that he had died early, but he was just a tyrant, a really bad guy.
00:38:37.920 And she said, my father was a really bad man.
00:38:39.980 She said, but my mother was just sweet.
00:38:42.480 Now this is Lena telling me this and she's just this plump.
00:38:46.340 She looks like one of those apple people, you know, you put the clothes for eyes and then they just kind of sink in and they become the soft little face.
00:38:54.300 She's just this angelic woman sitting there.
00:38:56.840 And she says, um, my mother knew that this man liked her and had said for years, she's going to be my wife.
00:39:08.180 And my mom and my mom's family wanted nothing to do with him because we knew what he was like.
00:39:13.600 Listen to the rest of this story.
00:39:15.680 You can find it, uh, at, uh, at wherever you get podcasts or on blaze TV.
00:39:21.240 It's the Chad Prather podcast this week.
00:39:25.160 It was just released, uh, with me as the guest.
00:39:28.260 You have to hear the end of that story.
00:39:29.960 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:39:35.380 This woman is from South Africa.
00:39:38.900 She worked for Reuters over in South Africa and then CBS news and then ABC and NBC and CNN.
00:39:48.400 She was in 2002.
00:39:51.220 She was on the battlefields all around the world.
00:39:54.520 As we were engaging in war,
00:39:56.760 she was part of face the nation and the CBS morning news.
00:40:01.760 And then in 2006,
00:40:03.220 she became the chief foreign correspondent for CBS news.
00:40:08.080 And she held that job up until recently,
00:40:10.740 but something has changed in her and maybe it's just her freedom.
00:40:16.940 She is able to say the things that nobody seems to be saying anywhere.
00:40:23.920 Her name is Laura Logan.
00:40:26.760 And she joins us in one minute.
00:40:30.100 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:40:41.080 Really?
00:40:41.820 I mean,
00:40:42.340 okay.
00:40:43.220 Yes.
00:40:43.720 Steak beyond that.
00:40:45.760 I'm just looking for things I can do with my kids.
00:40:48.060 I'm just looking for things that bring my family together and,
00:40:52.780 and help me out.
00:40:54.440 23 and me has something I think is really cool.
00:40:57.680 We did this a few months ago and I'm telling you the kids,
00:41:00.960 they waited.

00:41:05.200 And I'm talking teenagers.
00:41:06.900 Is it here yet?
00:41:07.840 And we sat down.
00:41:09.200 My wife did one.
00:41:10.180 I did one.
00:41:11.140 Uh,
00:41:11.500 and then we did one for my son who's adopted and we waited for those things to
00:41:16.680 come in.
00:41:17.220 And then we sat down for a couple of hours every night and went over them.
00:41:20.900 It's the 23 and me health and ancestry kit.

00:42:41.380 Laura Logan joins us now.
00:42:43.140 Laura,
00:42:43.980 nice to,
00:42:44.920 nice to meet you and nice to have you on the program.
00:42:47.940 Well,
00:42:48.900 thank you for having me.
00:42:50.140 I appreciate it.
00:42:51.240 Um,
00:42:51.680 let's,
00:42:52.580 let's get right into what you're doing recently.
00:42:54.940 And then I'd like to kind of open it up to,
00:42:56.800 uh,
00:42:57.280 more broad on,
00:42:59.200 uh,
00:42:59.560 on the media and what to expect and what we can,
00:43:03.500 what we can do to change things.
00:43:05.000 But you've been down on our border,
00:43:06.900 uh,
00:43:07.960 and strangely you have a different report than what the mainstream media is
00:43:12.780 giving everyone.
00:43:13.480 Well,
00:43:15.100 you know,
00:43:15.420 to be honest,
00:43:16.080 I don't watch,
00:43:17.060 uh,
00:43:17.520 what the mainstream media is giving everybody,
00:43:19.540 especially when I'm working.
00:43:20.920 Right.
00:43:21.260 Because my job is,
00:43:22.860 well,
00:43:23.120 I'm focused on doing my job.
00:43:24.660 Yeah.
00:43:25.080 I'm not,
00:43:25.560 I'm not too worried about what other people are doing.
00:43:27.540 And a wise old correspondent told me many years ago that he,
00:43:32.580 you know,
00:43:32.760 every day he goes out and he does his best and he doesn't worry about his
00:43:35.900 competition.
00:43:36.340 And some days he's the best and some days,
00:43:38.900 uh,
00:43:39.340 he's not.
00:43:40.340 So,
00:43:41.060 um,
00:43:41.760 but it's not surprising to me that it's different because I know where I go.
00:43:46.740 Um,
00:43:47.220 people all the time along the border in all different capacities keep saying,
00:43:51.140 nobody is telling our story.
00:43:53.660 Nobody is,
00:43:54.240 is,
00:43:54.980 is talking about this.
00:43:56.020 Nobody's telling the truth of,
00:43:57.920 you know,
00:43:58.200 it's not that people are lying about the border.
00:44:00.200 It's not that there's,
00:44:01.660 it's just that there's more than one story.
00:44:03.440 The only story is not simply a story of,
00:44:06.380 you know,
00:44:07.000 of,
00:44:07.440 um,
00:44:08.120 of poor people who want to move to the United States to improve their lives.
00:44:12.160 That is one part of the story.
00:44:13.580 And it's a very important part of the story.
00:44:15.560 And I can honestly tell you,
00:44:17.020 I've had moments where,
00:44:18.280 you know,
00:44:18.900 I've been flying into my,
00:44:20.280 um,
00:44:20.860 my basically my pretty crappy bed in my pretty crappy hotel at night.
00:44:26.020 And I've,
00:44:26.900 uh,
00:44:27.100 just about wanted to cry thinking about the people who don't,
00:44:30.780 um,
00:44:31.120 don't even know,
00:44:32.060 you know,
00:44:32.520 the people I've seen with their children and all the rest of it.
00:44:34.940 I mean,
00:44:35.480 I've got a big heart and that breaks my heart,
00:44:37.980 but it's only one part of the story.
00:44:40.800 So,
00:44:41.360 you know,
00:44:41.680 my job as a reporter has always been to understand the full context and cover as much of the story as I can.
00:44:47.820 And that's all I'm trying to do.
00:44:50.160 So there are,
00:44:51.320 there are the,
00:44:52.180 the sins of omission.
00:44:53.560 And I think that's what people are committing by saying that this is the only part of the story.
00:44:58.060 And you're right.
00:44:59.180 Uh,
00:44:59.420 I've been down at the border myself and,
00:45:01.700 you know,
00:45:01.900 we raised,
00:45:02.740 we raised money to bring,
00:45:04.120 you know,
00:45:04.560 food and comfort down to some of the children that were there in,
00:45:08.240 in,
00:45:08.720 uh,
00:45:09.060 during the Obama administration,
00:45:10.520 I tried to get the media to pay attention to the cages.
00:45:13.680 You're not allowed to talk about that.
00:45:15.420 I know,
00:45:15.680 I know,
00:45:16.200 I know,
00:45:16.580 but it,
00:45:17.320 it doesn't happen.
00:45:18.180 And,
00:45:18.520 and it,
00:45:19.040 it shows this real bias.
00:45:20.500 And I,
00:45:20.880 I don't want to dwell on this.
00:45:22.940 I've got one words for you.
00:45:23.900 I've got one words for you.
00:45:25.300 I have actually spoken to people down there right across law enforcement and border patrol who actually talk about when,
00:45:31.800 you know,
00:45:32.440 in a certain point in the Obama administration,
00:45:34.960 when they no longer wanted to deal with the deporter in chief title and the problem of all the children that they had in detention,
00:45:43.660 basically in prison,
00:45:44.720 don't that some people like to so-called that cages.
00:45:47.540 Um,
00:45:47.900 what did they do to actually border patrol agents then had orders where they would have to intercept people who they found coming over the border in certain parts,
00:45:57.680 and they would have to escort them back down to the border and send them back.
00:46:02.300 Don't apprehend them.
00:46:03.300 Don't create a statistic.
00:46:05.520 Don't create a problem for us.
00:46:07.540 Let's just push you over the border then and pretend that this is not happening.
00:46:13.140 I can't say how widespread that was.
00:46:16.380 I can't say that it was everywhere,
00:46:18.460 but I can tell you that it did happen.
00:46:20.780 And more than once.
00:46:22.300 So what is it that you're,
00:46:23.720 that people are saying,
00:46:24.940 nobody's telling this story.
00:46:26.800 What are the important stories that we're not hearing?
00:46:29.880 Well,
00:46:30.220 first and foremost,
00:46:31.500 um,
00:46:32.180 what,
00:46:32.440 what people just leave out of the narrative is that this is almost like a theater.
00:46:37.400 It's not,
00:46:38.580 it's a performance,
00:46:39.380 not for the people who are living it because they are,
00:46:43.260 they are like their pawns.
00:46:45.500 Um,
00:46:46.060 it's a theater for the cartels.
00:46:48.300 Yes,
00:46:48.540 they make an enormous amount of money out of all the people that cross because they take most of the smuggling fees.
00:46:54.400 They don't run the smuggling operations.
00:46:56.180 They're way too smart for that.
00:46:57.800 They have professional human smuggling operations,
00:47:00.320 human trafficking organizations that are global who do the smuggling for them,
00:47:04.680 but they pay most,
00:47:06.680 uh,
00:47:06.940 uh,
00:47:07.200 an enormous amount of what they earn.
00:47:09.260 They pay that to the cartels.
00:47:11.320 The cartels decide the Mexican cartels decide who crosses,
00:47:15.360 where they cross,
00:47:16.280 when they cross.
00:47:17.020 And so if you imagine you're a pilot and you can see the whole border from the air,
00:47:21.240 um,
00:47:21.760 that's really how the cartels operate.
00:47:23.680 You know,
00:47:23.880 it's divided up into the three main cartels.
00:47:26.380 Now the Sinaloa cartel,
00:47:27.820 the Gulf cartel,
00:47:28.580 and what used to be called the Zetas.
00:47:30.800 That's now cartel del Nostre,
00:47:32.760 del Nostre,
00:47:33.560 but,
00:47:33.760 um,
00:47:34.260 those are the three main cartels that control the traffic.
00:47:36.820 And the reason you have people coming in all these difficult places,
00:47:41.060 one of the reasons,
00:47:42.860 a big reason is that the cartels know if they split the resources of border patrol,
00:47:48.980 if,
00:47:49.480 um,
00:47:49.740 if you've got a group of five people or a group of 10 people and they all run in different directions,
00:47:54.320 how many agents does it now take to stop them?
00:47:58.060 You know,
00:47:58.440 so that's exactly what they're doing.
00:47:59.960 They're splitting the resources.
00:48:01.180 Pilots have described to me,
00:48:02.680 for example,
00:48:03.200 in parts of the border,
00:48:04.300 seeing,
00:48:04.640 uh,
00:48:05.000 groups of anywhere between 50 and 200 crossing at exactly the state at the same time at the crossing points,
00:48:12.420 sort of,
00:48:12.740 you know,
00:48:13.000 a hundred yards,
00:48:13.960 um,
00:48:14.740 from each other,
00:48:15.580 right?
00:48:15.960 So imagine in five different places separated by a hundred yards,
00:48:19.780 you have hundreds of people.
00:48:21.140 So what does that do in one tiny little,
00:48:25.560 tiny little town on the border in,
00:48:28.120 uh,
00:48:28.440 Texas on the Rio Grande Valley,
00:48:30.460 they have,
00:48:31.160 they have border patrol facilities that are built to house a maximum of 116 people.
00:48:37.520 Last weekend,
00:48:38.040 they had over 1100,
00:48:40.660 over 1100 in one weekend.
00:48:42.120 And they have people every single day.
00:48:43.880 And that's just one weekend.
00:48:45.720 This has been going on for months and months and months.
00:48:48.100 So in these places where people get,
00:48:51.160 um,
00:48:51.560 you know,
00:48:52.400 uh,
00:48:52.820 people get told all the time,
00:48:54.460 Texans,
00:48:54.920 for example,
00:48:55.560 Texans are a bunch of racist rednecks,
00:48:57.440 right?
00:48:57.940 And Texas don't care about people.
00:48:59.500 Look,
00:48:59.820 they don't recognize the children of illegal immigrants born.
00:49:02.380 Look at all the evil things people in Texas do.
00:49:05.060 They put illegal immigrants under bridges in terrible weather to suffer.
00:49:08.820 Well,
00:49:09.240 literally you've got border patrol agents looking at,
00:49:11.940 at me with desperation saying,
00:49:13.840 we don't know where else to put people.
00:49:17.380 You've got,
00:49:18.060 um,
00:49:18.660 churches in El Paso who the NGOs have run out of capacity,
00:49:22.620 right?
00:49:22.840 The NGOs that come from New York and other parts of the country that like to do
00:49:27.060 interviews in the paper sometimes about everything they're doing down on the
00:49:30.960 border,
00:49:31.460 except they've run out of capacity.
00:49:33.640 And,
00:49:33.880 um,
00:49:34.200 it's the local people in many of these places who are,
00:49:37.540 um,
00:49:38.240 trying to bear,
00:49:39.420 you know,
00:49:39.740 to help in some ways.
00:49:41.360 And the other,
00:49:42.020 you know,
00:49:42.240 there's another really important thing that,
00:49:44.140 that,
00:49:44.740 um,
00:49:45.520 gets left out of the narrative,
00:49:46.820 which,
00:49:47.640 um,
00:49:48.380 is that the large majority of border patrol agents are,
00:49:52.600 Hispanic Americans or Mexican Americans or whatever you want to call them.
00:49:56.860 They're not,
00:49:57.620 you know,
00:49:57.920 it's not just,
00:49:58.580 um,
00:49:59.180 these evil white men who are trying to,
00:50:01.560 um,
00:50:02.380 stop people coming into this,
00:50:04.120 this country.
00:50:04.780 It's not that at all.
00:50:06.440 In fact,
00:50:07.060 it's much more complex.
00:50:08.780 And in some of these towns,
00:50:10.000 the vast majority of the people who live there are Hispanic American.
00:50:14.340 and,
00:50:14.420 um,
00:50:14.840 and,
00:50:15.160 and,
00:50:15.820 you know,
00:50:16.100 Texas itself has a history that's very much wrapped up in Mexico.
00:50:21.080 And the first president of Texas was Mexican.
00:50:24.820 And when you look at the history here,
00:50:26.260 these,
00:50:26.500 these,
00:50:27.100 um,
00:50:27.380 two people,
00:50:28.020 they,
00:50:28.240 you know,
00:50:28.540 I'm not painting a picture of Nirvana.
00:50:30.440 There's always issues between people,
00:50:32.000 but it's very different to what people say it is from a distance.
00:50:35.580 It's the reality is,
00:50:37.100 is not much like that at all.
00:50:39.160 And I have,
00:50:40.260 I have,
00:50:40.720 um,
00:50:42.100 I have yet to meet anyone who wants these,
00:50:44.980 uh,
00:50:45.340 people to suffer or who is deliberately cruel to people.
00:50:48.300 And,
00:50:48.860 you know,
00:50:48.940 my experience is limited to my experience,
00:50:51.000 you know,
00:50:51.720 but,
00:50:51.980 um,
00:50:52.680 but I will tell you this,
00:50:54.880 when you say these people are pawns,
00:50:56.880 they are,
00:50:57.960 they're being,
00:50:58.560 I feel horrible for them because if in,
00:51:02.180 in,
00:51:02.520 in some cases,
00:51:03.440 not all cases,
00:51:04.220 but in many cases,
00:51:05.360 I think if I were on the other side of the border and I saw that America
00:51:10.060 really didn't care about its borders and they were going to give away free
00:51:14.080 citizenship and I could get my family there and my family,
00:51:18.120 he doesn't,
00:51:18.740 we're living in a town that maybe has violence,
00:51:21.640 but doesn't have any real chance for my kids.
00:51:24.540 You're damn right.
00:51:25.260 I'd be over here.
00:51:26.680 I would absolutely do it because I would think that America didn't really care
00:51:30.940 and they were offering citizenship.
00:51:33.460 So take that chance for my children to be able to have a better life that,
00:51:38.880 that they,
00:51:39.760 those people are being preyed on by all these different groups that have all
00:51:44.740 different agendas,
00:51:46.080 including the drug cartels that are holding back some family members and
00:51:51.560 saying,
00:51:51.840 look,
00:51:52.040 we're going to sell you this and we'll bring them over.
00:51:54.960 You do us a favor.
00:51:55.960 We'll do you a favor.
00:51:56.920 And then we'll send your,
00:51:57.860 your relative over.
00:51:59.000 And I mean,
00:51:59.680 we're importing people and enslaving people to,
00:52:03.800 to some of these drug cartels.
00:52:05.380 Oh no,
00:52:06.680 we're doing the bidding of the drug cartels.
00:52:08.920 Yes.
00:52:09.140 Whether wittingly or unwittingly that's happening.
00:52:12.360 And I can tell you,
00:52:13.660 I can add to what you're saying,
00:52:15.200 Glenn.
00:52:15.560 How about if you were watching or listening to commercials on the radio,
00:52:19.380 which tell you,
00:52:20.320 go to America,
00:52:21.600 you're going to get a house,
00:52:22.720 you're going to get land,
00:52:23.580 you're going to get a job,
00:52:24.540 you're going to get this or that.
00:52:25.760 And then add to that,
00:52:27.480 the fact that,
00:52:28.180 you know,
00:52:28.740 I mean,
00:52:29.140 one of,
00:52:29.740 one of my most trusted,
00:52:32.420 most at the person that I respect most in the world,
00:52:34.920 my producer,
00:52:35.540 Max McClellan,
00:52:36.300 he went and did a story in a series of reports in Honduras.
00:52:40.200 He was actually with a family when they said goodbye to their 15 year old
00:52:44.520 daughter and sent her to a better life in America.
00:52:47.440 And you can imagine,
00:52:48.420 right?
00:52:48.640 I mean,
00:52:48.860 he's a dad,
00:52:49.820 he's got a daughter.
00:52:50.660 I have two daughters and a son.
00:52:52.500 I mean,
00:52:52.680 what could be more heartbreaking than that?
00:52:54.540 I mean,
00:52:55.160 it's,
00:52:55.580 it's really painful for me to even imagine being,
00:52:57.540 imagine being in that situation,
00:52:59.280 but they don't even know if that door is actually going to a real job in
00:53:05.500 America.
00:53:05.920 There's so much sex trafficking.
00:53:08.060 And you imagine sending your 15 year old daughter into.
00:53:12.760 Nobody does that unless they are absolutely desperate or they have no other
00:53:17.640 options,
00:53:18.200 right?
00:53:18.460 Nobody,
00:53:19.140 nobody,
00:53:19.620 I mean,
00:53:19.760 the family,
00:53:20.340 you know,
00:53:20.820 the mother was sobbing,
00:53:22.020 the father was crying,
00:53:23.280 the daughter was crying.
00:53:24.040 You can imagine that's a very painful thing.
00:53:26.720 So,
00:53:26.820 but her chance,
00:53:27.880 she has a significant chance of being raped along the way.
00:53:31.040 When people come from Latin America,
00:53:32.600 they get to the first stash house inside of Mexico.
00:53:35.220 People get raped at the stash houses.
00:53:37.400 And then there's another stash house,
00:53:39.180 you know,
00:53:39.360 there's other stash houses all along the way,
00:53:41.520 but right on the Mexican side,
00:53:43.980 close to the border.
00:53:44.800 And then more stash houses when you cross the border.
00:53:47.600 And I've,
00:53:48.040 you know,
00:53:48.760 I've been looking at doing stories on this.
00:53:50.640 We have reports of different people who get raped at every one of those
00:53:54.960 locations along the way.
00:53:56.080 And then,
00:53:57.280 you know,
00:53:57.500 but we still,
00:53:58.260 we're still trying to find someone who has been through that to talk about
00:54:01.260 it because these things are very difficult to cover.
00:54:03.940 And also because,
00:54:05.380 because,
00:54:06.140 you know,
00:54:06.360 it's very easy to tear these stories apart.
00:54:09.700 This is,
00:54:10.400 here,
00:54:10.860 I have one for you.
00:54:12.000 This is the only time in my career as a journalist,
00:54:15.000 a professional,
00:54:15.640 where I have looked at,
00:54:19.160 at the statistics of rape and sexual abuse,
00:54:22.820 right?
00:54:22.980 Trying to figure out,
00:54:24.120 okay,
00:54:24.680 how many,
00:54:25.420 how prevalent is this?
00:54:27.140 What exactly are the facts?
00:54:29.220 How,
00:54:29.460 what is the chance when you get on that journey that this is going to happen to
00:54:33.480 you?
00:54:33.840 How bad is it truly?
00:54:35.480 Right.
00:54:36.120 And in this case,
00:54:37.560 this is one case where the media by and large says,
00:54:41.660 Oh,
00:54:42.140 you can't prove that this is happening.
00:54:44.880 Oh,
00:54:45.300 you know,
00:54:45.640 yes,
00:54:45.920 there was this MSF,
00:54:47.380 the NGO.
00:54:48.880 They did a big study on it and they found that,
00:54:51.360 you know,
00:54:51.780 at least 30% of,
00:54:53.460 of the women making this journey get raped or sexually assaulted.
00:54:57.880 But what do you have many journalists turning around and saying then,
00:55:01.800 well,
00:55:02.020 they took a sample of people on their way to the U S in Mexico.
00:55:07.220 They didn't,
00:55:07.920 you know,
00:55:08.200 take everybody and they didn't take everybody from every different country.
00:55:11.220 And so you get 15 reasons why the MSF statistic is not representative.
00:55:16.520 Well,
00:55:16.920 you know,
00:55:17.200 isn't the standard the way we normally in the media treat rape and sexual
00:55:20.780 assault figures is we always say it's the most underreported crime.
00:55:24.140 Don't we?
00:55:24.860 Doesn't that sound familiar?
00:55:26.220 And it's just a small,
00:55:27.380 I'm only making,
00:55:28.460 it's a small irony that I,
00:55:30.020 that I noticed when I was researching this story,
00:55:32.580 I thought,
00:55:32.960 wow,
00:55:33.360 all my professional life,
00:55:35.280 you know,
00:55:35.860 wherever I've been,
00:55:36.760 people have said that there's,
00:55:39.180 you know,
00:55:39.600 if that's the official thing,
00:55:40.780 you can bet it's much more than that.
00:55:43.060 Yes.
00:55:43.380 Now here you have people actually defending human traffickers,
00:55:47.380 defending cartels,
00:55:48.720 defending coyotes who rape people and saying,
00:55:51.920 well,
00:55:52.260 you know,
00:55:52.540 it's,
00:55:53.040 we,
00:55:53.180 we can't trust that because it's not fully representative.
00:55:56.700 So Laura,
00:55:57.300 I want to,
00:55:58.260 I want to break for a minute,
00:55:59.780 literally one minute,
00:56:00.980 and then I want to come back and I want to ask you why,
00:56:02.800 why,
00:56:04.020 how,
00:56:04.440 how is that happening?
00:56:05.520 That,
00:56:05.800 that intelligent people are,
00:56:08.000 are taking sides of monsters and they don't see it that way.
00:56:12.380 Back in one minute with Laura Logan.

00:56:21.020 This half hour is my Patriot supply.
00:56:23.040 Much of our nation's farmland remains underwater.
00:56:25.820 Storms continue to rake the heartland,
00:56:27.840 knocking out power repeatedly to millions.
00:56:31.380 We have a farm.
00:56:32.480 We have one crop in.
00:56:34.000 We were lucky to get our crop in before the rain.
00:56:37.140 Now,
00:56:37.720 thank goodness where our farm is,
00:56:39.200 the sun has come out.
00:56:40.620 But I don't know the other farmers,
00:56:42.580 you know,
00:56:43.340 in the area,
00:56:44.100 a lot of them didn't get their crops in.
00:56:46.060 They're going to miss one whole crop.
00:56:48.480 You only have four a year.
00:56:50.060 If you're lucky,
00:56:51.140 they've missed one.
00:56:52.380 This is going to cause real problems,
00:56:54.500 not just here,
00:56:55.360 but all around the world.

00:57:08.360 the FEMA is coming and body bag.
00:57:11.420 Forget about that.
00:57:13.520 Just the little things like running out of food because there's a snowstorm that is,

00:57:46.060 The Glenn Beck program talking to Laura Logan and Laura has just been down on the border and you use the word irony a few minutes ago.
00:58:11.000 That's the irony of it.
00:58:12.960 And it feels wrong.
00:58:14.400 That word might have been right maybe 10 years ago.
00:58:17.320 Wow.
00:58:17.720 How ironic.
00:58:19.080 Now it's,
00:58:20.620 it's beyond irony.
00:58:22.320 It's,
00:58:22.860 it's,
00:58:23.340 I don't,
00:58:23.900 I don't know how to describe it,
00:58:25.380 but it is a real source of frustration and conflict.
00:58:30.260 I think with a lot of people,
00:58:31.640 because you can't truly expect me to believe you're this stupid that you don't see you're defending people who are crazy on the other side.
00:58:44.440 They're,
00:58:44.700 they're,
00:58:45.040 they're drug traffickers.
00:58:46.300 They're human traffickers.
00:58:47.660 You're,
00:58:48.220 you're hurting people by,
00:58:50.040 by supporting this particular Avenue.
00:58:52.700 How,
00:58:53.820 how do you,
00:58:55.680 why is this happening?
00:58:57.220 And,
00:58:57.740 and how do you look at this?
00:59:00.200 Well,
00:59:00.840 you know,
00:59:01.140 the thing is I try,
00:59:02.580 I try as much as I talk about the things I know to also not guess and speculate about the things that to me are unknowable.
00:59:11.200 I mean,
00:59:11.880 you're a talk show host,
00:59:13.140 right?
00:59:13.380 So you can talk about those things,
00:59:14.840 but in my world,
00:59:16.540 I don't,
00:59:18.040 I don't go on television and speculate and which makes me a rare breed.
00:59:22.820 You're like two.
00:59:24.540 You're like two,
00:59:25.660 but I'm old school,
00:59:28.140 Glenn.
00:59:28.400 And I,
00:59:28.940 I think the really important thing for me that I want people to understand is I didn't invent the model of what it is to be an honest,
00:59:36.420 independent journalist.
00:59:37.500 I don't own it.
00:59:38.780 I'm not the only one.
00:59:39.940 And what,
00:59:40.640 what I am,
00:59:41.800 what I am disappointed by is to see,
00:59:43.660 you know,
00:59:44.940 to see the lack of critical thought and the lack of independence and the lack of honesty in so much of what is reported out there today.
00:59:53.540 What I can tell you in terms of why would people do this right now?
00:59:57.400 Well,
00:59:58.320 I mean,
00:59:58.860 what I know as a fact is that when I look out there at,
01:00:01.940 I have looked at all the reporting,
01:00:03.760 it's the same story over and over and over again.
01:00:06.320 And it's a very,
01:00:07.240 like I said,
01:00:07.860 it's an important story,
01:00:08.900 but it's still the same story.
01:00:10.460 There's many other aspects of this that are not being covered.
01:00:13.120 If I can go down to the border and border patrol agents and churches and other people can tell me that they have to give young girls who they help,
01:00:22.280 they have to give them codes so that when they get to where the human smugglers are taking them or where they're being sent by the traffickers that they can call in and use this code.
01:00:33.840 And people will know that they're being trafficked.
01:00:35.840 And people will know that they are in trouble,
01:00:37.140 that they're being trafficked,
01:00:38.620 that they're being sexually exploited,
01:00:40.420 that they're being,
01:00:41.060 you know,
01:00:41.900 that they're being badly treated.
01:00:43.580 Hold on just a second.
01:00:44.600 More with Laura Logan when we come back.
01:00:47.320 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
01:00:53.880 If you have a lot of pain in your life,
01:00:55.440 I understand.
01:00:56.280 I've got Stu to live with.
01:00:58.420 And unfortunately,
01:00:59.600 relief factor doesn't take him away.
01:01:01.320 I've tried throwing it at him.
01:01:04.600 It just doesn't make it go away.
01:01:06.600 It hurts me,
01:01:07.160 but it doesn't really make me go away.
01:01:08.600 But you take relief factor and it'll make that hurt go away.
01:01:11.420 Stu.
01:01:12.540 That's true.
01:01:13.160 And the inflammation from my boss pelting me with things,
01:01:16.280 that's something that really factor might help with.
01:01:18.540 It might,
01:01:19.100 because it reduces inflammation.
01:01:20.420 And that is really the main source of our pain.
01:01:23.680 When things are inflamed inside of us,
01:01:25.980 that's where pain comes from.
01:01:28.220 We've got to get relief factor to Amy Klobuchar's staff.
01:01:31.380 We should.
01:01:32.060 This would be very helpful.
01:01:33.160 We should.
01:01:33.320 I think we should send them a bag.
01:01:34.280 Very good.
01:01:34.460 Yeah.
01:01:34.840 So it's relief factor.
01:01:36.280 I know there's tons of people in this audience,
01:01:38.000 veterans and everybody else,
01:01:38.860 that you suffer with daily pain,
01:01:40.500 and you might have tried everything,
01:01:41.820 anything else.
01:01:42.280 Please try this.
01:01:43.500 Try it for three weeks.
01:01:44.380 If it doesn't work,
01:01:45.020 stop taking it.
01:01:45.920 It's 20 bucks to try it.
01:01:47.540 70% of the people who try it go on to order more and more.
01:01:49.920 I've been taking it for about a year and a half,
01:01:51.640 and it actually really,
01:01:53.440 really makes a difference.
01:01:55.000 It's relief factor.

01:02:07.700 Laura Logan is an investigative journalist.
01:02:10.060 She is working with Cheryl Atkinson's group for the next three months,
01:02:18.860 just covering the border and what's really going on in the border.
01:02:23.200 she's with us now to talk about different things.
01:02:27.540 And Laura,
01:02:28.100 first,
01:02:28.860 again,
01:02:29.540 thank you for coming on the program.
01:02:31.220 I'm a big fan of yours.
01:02:33.100 Thank you,
01:02:33.800 Glenn.
01:02:34.060 have a great,
01:02:35.700 a great deal of respect for you on multiple levels.
01:02:39.300 The,
01:02:40.000 the thing that you said a minute ago,
01:02:42.160 you said,
01:02:43.040 you know,
01:02:44.560 Glenn,
01:02:44.820 you're a,
01:02:45.420 you're a radio guy.
01:02:47.700 You're a talk radio guy.
01:02:48.500 So you can comment on these things.
01:02:50.960 I'm a journalist and there's a difference.
01:02:53.120 That's one of the biggest problems with the media right now is I've never claimed to be a journalist.
01:02:59.480 I don't,
01:03:00.460 that's not what I do.
01:03:02.260 I try to be fair,
01:03:03.700 but I'm an opinion guy.
01:03:05.580 And so I look at things and then people come to me for what do you think it means?
01:03:13.440 That's different than a journalist.
01:03:15.180 And the journalists keep confusing that.
01:03:18.440 Now,
01:03:19.100 with that said,
01:03:20.680 I do want to ask your opinion because I think you might have an interesting perspective.
01:03:26.560 You're from South Africa.
01:03:28.920 You,
01:03:29.420 I'm sure you remember,
01:03:30.700 you know,
01:03:31.360 apartheid and on all of those.
01:03:33.520 I absolutely do.
01:03:34.840 Yeah.
01:03:35.040 Okay.
01:03:36.380 We,
01:03:37.480 and maybe it's just my naive,
01:03:39.580 you know,
01:03:40.180 American viewpoint,
01:03:41.220 but I've never seen America like this before.
01:03:45.100 I don't remember the 1960s,
01:03:47.440 but I've never seen America like this before.
01:03:50.860 And we are dividing ourselves into little teeny camps.
01:03:53.820 And it feels like we are headed for real trouble.
01:04:00.040 Do you see anything that from your South African background that we Americans might be missing on like,
01:04:09.280 Hey,
01:04:09.420 don't do this.
01:04:10.560 Well,
01:04:12.080 the first thing that I would say,
01:04:13.500 Glenn is,
01:04:14.240 you know,
01:04:14.460 I live in a small town in Texas and,
01:04:17.120 and I travel all over this country and I go to a lot of different places,
01:04:21.140 sometimes big cities in California,
01:04:23.620 sometimes small cities.
01:04:24.600 I mean,
01:04:24.920 small towns in California and from California to Oklahoma to Seattle,
01:04:29.220 Washington,
01:04:29.860 you know,
01:04:30.160 to anywhere.
01:04:30.860 And I'm not so sure that we really are that divided.
01:04:35.180 I,
01:04:35.500 I look to the media and I look to the politicians and I look to the propagandists for pushing this narrative over and over and over again.
01:04:43.160 And,
01:04:43.640 and you know,
01:04:43.860 there's something that I've seen happen all over the world.
01:04:46.180 Look at Syria,
01:04:46.800 for example,
01:04:47.600 when Assad first started slaughtering his own people,
01:04:50.900 he said he was fighting terrorists today.
01:04:53.540 And for a long time now,
01:04:54.840 he has been fighting terrorists,
01:04:56.200 right?
01:04:56.580 Because they were smart enough.
01:04:57.840 They knew what would happen when they did what they did.
01:05:00.660 They knew that there were terrorist groups right in that region and within their own country who would rise up and exploit that situation.
01:05:08.300 And,
01:05:08.400 and they,
01:05:09.200 now he's telling the truth,
01:05:10.760 except it's not the whole truth.
01:05:12.140 And I feel that way about where we are.
01:05:14.500 This is my,
01:05:15.460 this is my personal opinion.
01:05:17.200 This is not my observations.
01:05:19.380 It's as a journalist,
01:05:20.620 it's my observations as a professional and as a thinking person who is able to set,
01:05:27.040 you know,
01:05:27.460 part of my job is to separate from the emotion and the ideology.
01:05:31.060 I have to break things down,
01:05:32.540 right?
01:05:32.700 When I look at things,
01:05:33.500 what are the facts?
01:05:34.520 What do we know for a fact?
01:05:35.740 What do I know for a fact?
01:05:37.060 How do I begin to understand what has happened or here so that I can begin to put my name to this and tell people,
01:05:44.000 this is what I believe happened.
01:05:45.220 This is what I know happened because I've been able to independently verify it from firsthand sources,
01:05:51.260 right?
01:05:51.620 So that's why,
01:05:52.860 for example,
01:05:53.340 when the BuzzFeed dossier,
01:05:55.200 you know,
01:05:55.400 the,
01:05:55.540 the steel dossier came out.
01:05:56.920 Well,
01:05:57.340 that was a joke to me from the very beginning,
01:05:59.100 because as a journalist,
01:06:00.040 it doesn't have any firsthand sources.
01:06:01.800 Number one,
01:06:02.780 number two,
01:06:03.380 the sources it does have,
01:06:04.780 which are second and third hand,
01:06:06.160 who are FSB agents working for the right government at the time,
01:06:11.000 which is just a joke.
01:06:12.940 Okay.
01:06:13.160 So not that the FSB,
01:06:15.000 you know,
01:06:15.180 or that intelligence agencies can't have information.
01:06:17.320 They can,
01:06:18.440 but you,
01:06:18.880 you evaluate that in its context,
01:06:20.680 right?
01:06:20.900 And anyway,
01:06:21.180 I could go down the list,
01:06:22.320 but that's not an ideological statement for me.
01:06:24.600 And it's not a political statement.
01:06:25.920 It is to a lot of other people,
01:06:27.500 but not,
01:06:28.280 you know,
01:06:28.520 for me,
01:06:28.960 I break it down.
01:06:29.860 So in South Africa,
01:06:31.520 you know,
01:06:32.160 there's two big things that I can tell you about.
01:06:35.220 I grew up despising racism.
01:06:38.220 I saw people put to death for the color of their skin.
01:06:41.680 And so I,
01:06:42.460 I,
01:06:43.040 you know,
01:06:43.500 was forced to confront these issues very early on.
01:06:46.320 And I don't believe in the death penalty,
01:06:48.080 because for me personally,
01:06:50.020 the idea that you could put someone to death for the wrong reasons,
01:06:53.840 overwhelms all the considerations when someone deserves,
01:06:57.240 maybe deserves to die.
01:06:58.420 Right.
01:06:58.800 And of course the counter argument instantly is,
01:07:01.300 well,
01:07:01.360 what if your daughter or your son or someone you loved was raped and
01:07:04.260 tortured and murdered?
01:07:05.360 Wouldn't you want them to die?
01:07:06.520 Well,
01:07:06.640 of course I would,
01:07:07.460 but you know what I learned that when you believe in a principle,
01:07:10.920 you have to make personal sacrifices for those principles.
01:07:14.220 They they're not free as,
01:07:15.980 as many people in this country know far better than me.
01:07:20.440 Freedom isn't free and true tolerance.
01:07:23.740 So in South Africa,
01:07:24.660 you know,
01:07:24.980 I really didn't have anything in common with or identify with the
01:07:29.100 extreme right.
01:07:30.080 I didn't identify with racism in any way.
01:07:32.240 In fact,
01:07:32.480 my entire life was defined by the stand that I took for equality and
01:07:37.160 freedom and justice for all,
01:07:39.260 you know,
01:07:39.520 that the example that was set by the ANC and Nelson Mandela and all of
01:07:44.200 the many leaders in South Africa that stood up for that black and
01:07:48.200 white,
01:07:48.560 by the way,
01:07:49.060 so what I learned as a young journalist was I didn't get to say when
01:07:55.140 there was an attack or a big event,
01:07:56.640 I'm not going to go and talk to those evil right-wing people who I
01:08:00.460 despise because my job is to say to them,
01:08:03.580 Hey,
01:08:03.920 why did this happen?
01:08:04.940 What did you do?
01:08:05.620 And I still have to put their perspective forward.
01:08:08.100 It also doesn't mean as a journalist that when they said truly crazy,
01:08:12.520 lunatic things,
01:08:13.540 when people on all sides said that to me,
01:08:15.620 I didn't just put it out because I could put,
01:08:18.100 you know,
01:08:18.460 because I could see why a,
01:08:19.820 right.
01:08:20.060 I could cover my butt and I could say,
01:08:21.940 well,
01:08:22.000 this person said it right.
01:08:23.460 No,
01:08:23.940 you actually had to evaluate those things in the context and you had to see whether there was anything credible in that person saying them.
01:08:30.120 And if they were truly representative of whoever it was,
01:08:33.300 you were saying in your story,
01:08:34.640 they represent it.
01:08:35.680 And so there are subjective judgments in what we do all of the time as journalists,
01:08:40.480 every single minute of the day.
01:08:42.300 And I've never shied away from that because I've been one of the few journalists who stood up and said,
01:08:48.420 you know,
01:08:48.720 objectivity is not a human quality.
01:08:52.160 Subjectivity is,
01:08:52.980 is our most human quality to be objective.
01:08:55.660 We have to,
01:08:56.920 we need systems and processes and we need things that we revert to that take us out of our most human instincts.
01:09:05.680 And force us to do things that are not really natural for human beings.
01:09:10.660 It's natural for us to have opinions.
01:09:12.580 It's not natural for us to look at things from all different sides.
01:09:15.580 It's natural for us to agree with the people we like.
01:09:17.860 It's not natural for us to be as critical of the people we agree with as the ones we disagree with.
01:09:22.900 So in a sense,
01:09:23.720 objectivity is something that takes us outside of our nature,
01:09:26.900 but it's not an,
01:09:28.160 it's not an something that's completely beyond reach and tolerance and being liberal and being open-minded.
01:09:35.000 And having an open heart,
01:09:36.600 those things don't belong to any political force in my view.
01:09:41.820 I just believe that if you're going to say that you are something,
01:09:45.260 you have to be that thing.
01:09:46.920 You have to,
01:09:47.380 you have to stand up for that thing.
01:09:49.460 You,
01:09:49.720 otherwise it's meaningless.
01:09:51.240 Otherwise they're just words.
01:09:52.520 They're bumper stickers.
01:09:53.840 Well,
01:09:53.960 you know,
01:09:54.580 there are a lot of bumper stickers out there today about being open and being tolerant and about being better people.
01:10:01.260 And,
01:10:01.540 and we're,
01:10:02.820 we're boxing people into a very narrow space where we define what people should think.
01:10:08.880 Someone else defines what we should think,
01:10:10.820 what we should believe in,
01:10:12.020 how we should behave,
01:10:13.340 you know,
01:10:13.720 and,
01:10:14.080 and who we should associate with and in every realm,
01:10:17.340 how we should do those things.
01:10:18.640 And I got to tell you,
01:10:19.860 I was born free.
01:10:22.360 Freedom lives within me.
01:10:23.660 And there's the greatest example in my life that I've ever seen of this.
01:10:28.880 And there are many examples,
01:10:29.940 but the one that I was close to personally was Nelson Mandela.
01:10:34.220 And when he stood on trial at the Rivonia trial,
01:10:37.540 he was charged with terrorism and the South African government,
01:10:40.560 you know,
01:10:40.820 was at its most powerful and his family and friends begged him not to say what he had,
01:10:47.520 the speech he had written for when he got to take the stand.
01:10:51.180 And he went ahead and did it anyway.
01:10:53.820 And in that speech,
01:10:54.860 one of the things that he said is that freedom is an ideal for which I would like to live,
01:11:02.260 but it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.
01:11:06.160 And that is the price he was willing to pay for the principle that he believed in.
01:11:12.140 In fact,
01:11:12.480 he was offered his freedom many times in the 27 years he was in prison and he never took it
01:11:18.260 because the compromise wasn't worth it.
01:11:22.060 The compromise meant that the principle didn't stand.
01:11:26.240 And,
01:11:26.320 and,
01:11:27.360 you know,
01:11:27.860 I mean,
01:11:28.400 what greater example can you ever have than a person who gave up their own personal freedom
01:11:32.720 to live behind bars for as long as he did,
01:11:35.660 because he understood that the principle had to be intact.
01:11:39.080 And so I,
01:11:39.860 you know,
01:11:40.260 what I say to people today is I haven't changed.
01:11:43.000 I haven't,
01:11:43.540 I mean,
01:11:43.840 yes,
01:11:44.120 things about me have changed,
01:11:45.160 but I don't change the way I do my job.
01:11:46.980 I don't change the way I live my life.
01:11:48.940 I live it with 150% to,
01:11:51.940 and do it to the best of my ability.
01:11:53.380 And I go with an open mind and an open heart.
01:11:56.280 I don't pretend I don't have prejudices or biases or feelings or emotions.
01:12:01.140 I just try to put them in the right places and do my job the way,
01:12:06.460 um,
01:12:07.180 every great journalist and every good journalist out there,
01:12:10.740 every independent,
01:12:11.800 honest journalist tries to do it.
01:12:14.120 It's not unique to me.
01:12:15.640 And this is why I just love you so much.
01:12:19.660 Uh,
01:12:20.100 that is,
01:12:21.100 I don't know what else you can say.
01:12:23.860 I'm going to leave it,
01:12:24.540 uh,
01:12:24.920 there.
01:12:25.320 I would love to have you,
01:12:26.720 um,
01:12:27.240 for a podcast and be able to spend a good uninterrupted,
01:12:31.400 uh,
01:12:31.740 time with you because I,
01:12:32.980 people have to hear,
01:12:35.800 um,
01:12:36.940 your words.
01:12:38.260 And I mean,
01:12:39.460 this is what exactly should be taught in journalism schools and should be said
01:12:44.620 on the floor of every newsroom in America that you,
01:12:48.760 what you just said should be played for everyone.
01:12:52.140 And they should all just nod their head and go,
01:12:54.160 yep,
01:12:54.500 yep,
01:12:54.720 that's true.
01:12:55.800 Uh,
01:12:56.320 cause that's the way it is.
01:12:57.620 And that has no party or partisan politics in it.
01:13:01.900 And I really respect you,
01:13:03.700 Laura,
01:13:04.260 really respect.
01:13:04.940 No.

01:13:07.400 And I,
01:13:08.040 and I,
01:13:08.440 I just want to say to you,
01:13:09.900 thank you by the way,
01:13:11.060 for supporting me and for standing up for me.

01:13:20.520 And he's one of the best people that I've ever known in my life.
01:13:24.020 And,
01:13:24.360 and you have a lot of people that listen to you all the time and,
01:13:28.020 um,
01:13:28.400 and have talked to me about coming to do your show and,
01:13:31.280 and want me to do your podcast.
01:13:32.860 And I said,

01:16:42.020 It'd be fun.
01:16:42.620 And just get a nap in because I tend to be a little long winded,
01:16:47.740 uh,
01:16:48.320 just a little bit,
01:16:49.040 uh,
01:16:49.480 on the museum.
01:16:50.140 And this is going to be a great museum.
01:16:52.120 We were working on it last night.
01:16:53.640 Uh,
01:16:54.520 some of the things that you've never seen,
01:16:56.680 you know,
01:16:57.280 when you think of museum,
01:16:57.980 sometimes you think of old crap,
01:16:59.460 uh,
01:17:00.300 but this is some old crap.
01:17:02.980 And I hate to use the word crap,
01:17:04.280 seeing that,
01:17:04.860 you know,
01:17:05.160 some of it is belong to Abraham Lincoln.
01:17:07.920 Uh,
01:17:08.320 but,
01:17:08.760 uh,
01:17:09.320 there's also a lot of new things.
01:17:11.620 We are,
01:17:12.200 we're using the experience of the American story of slavery,
01:17:16.860 uh,
01:17:18.200 to show you that a,
01:17:19.620 it was global.
01:17:20.420 Did you know that only 4% of the slaves,
01:17:23.640 that were shipped across the Atlantic came to America only 4%,
01:17:28.400 50%,
01:17:30.200 50% of those slaves went to Brazil.
01:17:35.360 I didn't know that.
01:17:37.300 Did you know that Mexico stopped slavery just a few years before we did?
01:17:42.380 They were actually number two is Britain.
01:17:44.280 Number one,
01:17:44.800 then,
01:17:45.400 then,
01:17:45.820 uh,
01:17:46.560 Mexico.
01:17:47.320 And then we were number three,
01:17:48.420 except Mexico.
01:17:49.720 It deserves a little asterix.
01:17:51.820 Mexico decided to end slavery.
01:17:54.540 And then when they passed the bill to end slavery,
01:17:57.280 it was okay,
01:17:58.960 but you can keep your slaves for 99 more years.
01:18:04.640 And nobody talks about slavery to Mexico.
01:18:07.900 Nobody talks about the slavery in Brazil,
01:18:10.280 but the important thing is,
01:18:13.760 is that it is happening still today.
01:18:16.660 And where we have some pieces from ISIS that will,
01:18:21.400 Ooh,
01:18:21.640 you'll never forget.
01:18:22.540 This is a great,
01:18:23.820 great,
01:18:24.520 uh,
01:18:25.200 museum that we've put together.
01:18:26.700 It is 12 score and seven years ago,
01:18:29.180 based on the Gettysburg address,
01:18:30.880 12 score and seven years ago.
01:18:32.480 How are we doing on that promise that all men are created equal?
01:18:36.340 You can see this at the Mercury studios,
01:18:39.320 the end of,
01:18:40.500 uh,
01:18:40.980 the last week of June into July,
01:18:43.880 early July.
01:18:44.640 Glenn Beck,
01:18:46.960 the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:18:53.720 Well,
01:18:54.380 the good news is we're,
01:18:55.540 uh,
01:18:55.840 we're eating the hot dog at both ends when it comes to life.
01:18:59.520 You know,
01:19:00.200 uh,
01:19:00.520 that baby's not a baby until I say it's a baby and life on the other end.
01:19:05.940 It's not really a life.
01:19:08.100 If it's not worth living now,
01:19:10.900 a bill legalizing assisted suicide reaches the governor's desk in Maine.
01:19:17.480 Where is this all headed?
01:19:19.300 Well,
01:19:19.640 we could be more like Sweden and Denmark and the Netherlands.
01:19:22.960 They're fantastic.
01:19:24.480 Are they?
01:19:25.760 Let me tell you the story of the teenager that was just euthanized.
01:19:29.080 See if you agree with their decision to be tolerant and,
01:19:35.020 and help people out that are in pain in one minute.

01:21:42.860 Did you see how crazy my Miley Cyrus was?
01:21:45.440 She's so funny.
01:21:47.280 I remember that.
01:21:48.900 I remember the interview I did with her dad,
01:21:51.460 uh,
01:21:52.000 when she first went to Disney.
01:21:53.380 I do remember this Billy Ray.
01:21:55.420 Yeah.
01:21:55.620 Yeah.
01:21:55.960 And Billy Ray was on and I said,
01:21:57.580 Billy,
01:21:58.040 aren't you afraid your daughter is going to be with the devil soon?
01:22:03.900 And,
01:22:04.320 uh,
01:22:04.560 he was like,
01:22:05.020 no,
01:22:05.260 no,
01:22:05.380 no,
01:22:05.500 no.
01:22:05.600 Cause I'm going to be there with her.
01:22:07.120 And I know,
01:22:07.900 cause I've seen all these kids that go to Disney.
01:22:10.160 They all turn out screwed up and leftist and drug addicts and everything else.
01:22:15.680 Not my sweetie pie.
01:22:17.300 God,
01:22:17.640 we got to find that interview.
01:22:18.600 I do remember that general conversation happening because he was,
01:22:22.060 he was,
01:22:22.800 he was like,
01:22:23.580 he was concerned.
01:22:24.620 He was a concerned dad.
01:22:26.000 She was a good Christian.
01:22:27.120 They were a good Christian family.
01:22:29.020 Everything was going well.
01:22:30.600 And then she went over to Disney and he,
01:22:34.680 we had a great conversation and he was like,
01:22:36.420 no,
01:22:36.580 no,
01:22:36.660 no,
01:22:36.780 I am well aware of it.
01:22:37.880 That's why I'm going to be with her all the time.
01:22:40.160 We're not breaking up our family.
01:22:41.680 We're going to be there.
01:22:42.700 Most of these kids go.
01:22:44.040 And then they,
01:22:45.060 oof.
01:22:45.860 Yeah.
01:22:45.940 It's been a rough run here for Miley.
01:22:47.860 It's amazing.
01:22:48.560 She's actually theoretically still culturally relevant,
01:22:51.760 relevant,
01:22:52.040 relevant.
01:22:52.420 I mean,
01:22:52.580 it's right.
01:22:53.540 Like when I saw her face,
01:22:54.800 I was like,
01:22:55.120 what is she still doing things?
01:22:56.860 I did the same thing.
01:22:58.360 And I'm like,
01:22:58.620 oh,
01:22:58.780 there's the tongue again.
01:22:59.640 It's Miley Cyrus.
01:23:00.660 Right.
01:23:01.380 That's her.
01:23:02.380 So she licks this cake in a photo and it says abortion is healthcare on it.
01:23:06.380 And it's,
01:23:06.860 you know,
01:23:07.100 I,
01:23:07.380 you know,
01:23:07.680 everyone,
01:23:08.360 it's about the level of analysis.
01:23:10.960 Most people put into this particular topic.
01:23:13.720 They see it.
01:23:14.760 They like a photo on Instagram.
01:23:16.180 Like there's not a lot of thought going on here.
01:23:19.320 I just need to know what to put on my cake that I'm going to lick later today.
01:23:23.880 And I mean,
01:23:24.380 probably buttercream would be my guess.
01:23:26.280 It's certainly the way you normally go.
01:23:27.620 No,
01:23:27.840 I mean,
01:23:28.320 you know,
01:23:28.620 what should the,
01:23:29.620 what should it say?
01:23:30.740 I mean,
01:23:31.220 we should take some suggestions.
01:23:32.880 Maybe we'll,
01:23:33.260 maybe we'll get one.
01:23:33.960 I liked yours.
01:23:34.760 What you put on your response.
01:23:36.700 Uh,
01:23:37.280 the,
01:23:37.760 well,
01:23:38.180 it's a picture of her licking the cake.
01:23:39.780 So the icing says this cake now has a venereal disease,
01:23:43.560 which is unfortunate.
01:23:44.620 I don't,
01:23:45.780 it's sad.
01:23:46.440 That's not right.
01:23:47.620 That's wrong.
01:23:48.680 Wrong.
01:23:48.980 I'm,
01:23:49.360 I'm,
01:23:49.640 I'm amazed by,
01:23:50.920 by this and that like abortion is a lot of things.
01:23:54.360 It used to be something that we all,
01:23:56.740 everyone in society recognized either as evil or a necessary evil,
01:24:02.560 right?
01:24:02.980 The pro choice side said it was a necessary evil.
01:24:05.280 There's some places we don't look.
01:24:07.000 We want it to be safe,
01:24:07.840 legal and rare.
01:24:08.480 Well,
01:24:08.580 why do you want it to be rare?
01:24:10.020 What's the,
01:24:10.560 why rare?
01:24:11.320 What's,
01:24:11.520 why would you want it rare?
01:24:12.640 If it seems like if it's not negative,
01:24:14.660 why would you want it rare?
01:24:15.360 And of course the answer to that is they actually,
01:24:18.800 I mean,
01:24:19.240 there are a lot of people who consider themselves pro choice who want it rare,
01:24:22.420 but the people who are designing slogans like safe,
01:24:25.640 legal and rare say screw rare,
01:24:27.880 you know,
01:24:28.300 legal is the main thing,
01:24:29.480 whether it's safe or not,
01:24:30.220 is not really a concern either.
01:24:31.700 It's not.
01:24:32.400 So it's been an interesting development in this kind of world.
01:24:36.460 That's gone to now saying either shout your abortion.
01:24:39.420 It was,
01:24:40.080 where did I have my best abortion?
01:24:42.220 It was in Jamaica at,
01:24:43.880 you know,
01:24:44.140 at a resort.
01:24:45.240 By the way,
01:24:45.840 if you don't know,
01:24:46.360 he's not making that up there.
01:24:47.540 A lady gave a speech about her,
01:24:49.080 where her best abortion was and she was giving it to a crowd.
01:24:52.580 Yeah.
01:24:52.700 And she said it was right.
01:24:53.520 It happened right here in Seattle and it was the best abortion.
01:24:55.800 It was my first.
01:24:56.500 It was my best.
01:24:57.360 Yeah.
01:24:57.560 Oh my gosh.
01:24:58.420 What a psycho.
01:24:59.620 So you have that.
01:25:00.100 And then the other idea that somehow it's healthcare.
01:25:02.340 Abortion is a lot of things.
01:25:03.800 One thing that is not as healthcare,
01:25:05.240 healthcare can't be,
01:25:07.100 Hey,
01:25:07.240 I want,
01:25:07.740 I want you to die.
01:25:08.620 Like you can't make,
01:25:09.960 you can't make ending a life into healthcare.
01:25:12.720 Now,
01:25:13.000 especially when the person is not even there to,
01:25:15.620 to agree to it,
01:25:17.300 right?
01:25:17.460 Like the person has no opinion.
01:25:19.460 It's one thing to say euthanasia.
01:25:21.020 Okay.
01:25:21.360 Well,
01:25:21.800 I mean,
01:25:22.040 it's what Dr.
01:25:22.680 Kevorkian did healthcare.
01:25:24.160 I mean,
01:25:24.320 I don't think so,
01:25:25.180 but at least he's a doctor and it's a medical sort of procedure.
01:25:29.380 So maybe you make that argument,
01:25:30.900 but at least those people were agreeing to it.
01:25:32.660 The person is making the own choice.
01:25:36.160 I am not for euthanasia.
01:25:38.620 I think it's a bad,
01:25:40.500 bad standard to set.
01:25:42.140 However,
01:25:43.420 at the same time,
01:25:45.020 I am conflicted.
01:25:46.420 I just don't want the government and the medical,
01:25:48.880 the community having to sign off on everything because then it just becomes
01:25:56.320 part of the system.
01:25:57.200 And I don't like that.
01:25:58.760 I think you have a right to kill yourself.
01:26:00.820 Now I come from a family with two suicides.
01:26:03.880 Suicide is destructive.
01:26:05.640 It is awful.
01:26:06.820 It destroys a family.
01:26:08.620 It,
01:26:08.740 it,
01:26:09.560 it harms the chi.
01:26:12.660 Uh,
01:26:13.140 it,
01:26:13.720 it is,
01:26:15.140 it,
01:26:15.600 it is the most selfish and destructive thing you can do.
01:26:18.880 And I know because it's happened twice.
01:26:21.300 Um,
01:26:21.820 and it,
01:26:23.340 it affects everyone around you.
01:26:26.680 With that being said,
01:26:28.620 do you have the right to your own life?
01:26:34.160 I think you do.
01:26:35.760 I think it's going to be really hard to stop people.
01:26:38.560 Uh,
01:26:38.720 it's one of those things that you can make a law against it if you want,
01:26:41.480 but it's like the big Trump baby in,
01:26:43.160 in Europe,
01:26:43.720 uh,
01:26:44.220 in,
01:26:44.540 in England.
01:26:45.180 Did you hear what happened to it yesterday?
01:26:46.660 Did it get us popped?
01:26:48.320 It got popped.
01:26:49.400 It is somebody shivved it.
01:26:50.620 Somebody took a knife and cut a hole in it.
01:26:52.880 Well,
01:26:53.020 I thought the outline,
01:26:53.920 I thought you outlawed knives in,
01:26:55.700 in great Britain.
01:26:56.340 How did that happen?
01:26:57.960 Um,
01:26:58.560 but,
01:26:59.040 uh,
01:26:59.340 anyway,
01:27:00.120 uh,
01:27:00.700 but what's happening now is we are devaluing things so much because it's,
01:27:06.900 it's just the starting point.
01:27:08.780 Safe,
01:27:09.280 safe,
01:27:09.760 rare,
01:27:09.940 and legal,
01:27:10.420 right?
01:27:10.860 We want it to be rare.
01:27:12.160 Well,
01:27:12.440 it's in the Netherlands.
01:27:13.940 They passed a law a few years ago where you could have euthanasia and it was supposed to be safe,
01:27:19.380 rare,
01:27:19.560 and legal.
01:27:20.060 And it was just for people who had absolutely no prospect of getting better.
01:27:25.880 So you're at the end of your life.
01:27:28.040 You've got cancer and you're in massive pain.
01:27:31.800 Just please,
01:27:32.740 just help me die.
01:27:33.860 Please help me die.
01:27:34.900 Now I can understand that.
01:27:36.420 I really can.
01:27:38.360 Uh,
01:27:38.800 I hope I don't get there,
01:27:40.160 but I've been close to having close to that kind of pain before where I'm like,
01:27:45.260 I can't live like this.
01:27:46.540 I can't live like this anymore.
01:27:48.560 So I understand it.
01:27:50.280 However,
01:27:51.340 what's happened now is you used to have to have a psychiatrist also sign off.
01:27:57.480 So you had to have two doctors and one psychiatrist,
01:28:00.440 I think.
01:28:01.580 And so the doctors both had to say,
01:28:03.020 yep,
01:28:03.280 terminal and blah,
01:28:04.460 blah,
01:28:04.580 blah.
01:28:04.880 And the psychiatrist had to say,
01:28:06.560 yeah,
01:28:06.700 they're in their right mind.
01:28:08.380 Okay.
01:28:08.980 I think that's,
01:28:09.800 I think that's probably a pretty good standard.
01:28:11.620 Well,
01:28:11.900 they're getting rid of the psychiatrist now because the psychiatrist is,
01:28:17.020 you know,
01:28:18.140 is pointing out,
01:28:19.060 no,
01:28:19.280 this person is just really depressed.
01:28:22.200 So they get,
01:28:22.940 they're getting rid of this.
01:28:23.840 They're getting rid of the psychiatrist.
01:28:25.740 So he doesn't have to sign on anymore.
01:28:28.120 And they're starting to get rid of people.
01:28:29.880 For instance,
01:28:30.780 they just,
01:28:31.380 they just got rid of a,
01:28:32.400 I think he was a 20 some year old,
01:28:34.180 uh,
01:28:34.700 guy who was mentally handicapped.
01:28:38.340 And,
01:28:38.780 uh,
01:28:39.080 you know,
01:28:39.420 he said he didn't have a life and he was never going to have a good life.
01:28:43.280 And so he wanted to kill himself.
01:28:44.620 And so they killed him.
01:28:46.840 Now here's the,
01:28:47.880 here's the latest.
01:28:48.820 A teenager who was raped by two men when she was 14 said that,
01:28:57.700 and she also has anorexia and she has all kinds of problems.
01:29:03.060 I mean,
01:29:03.500 it's clear this girl has gone through really horrific things.
01:29:08.620 Okay.
01:29:10.380 She's 17 years old.
01:29:13.520 She said the pain she was dealing with after the childhood rape was insufferable.
01:29:21.200 And she couldn't live this way.
01:29:23.120 And so she decided that she wanted to be euthanized and they did it.
01:29:31.200 A 17 year old girl who had been raped.
01:29:35.820 And had tragic things happening to her.
01:29:41.000 She had anorexia,
01:29:42.760 which is a sign of a mental issue.
01:29:48.040 She said it was too much.
01:29:50.400 She couldn't deal with it.
01:29:51.660 Please kill me.
01:29:53.600 And they did.
01:29:56.720 What the hell is wrong with us?
01:29:58.680 I mean,
01:29:59.060 as a human being,
01:30:00.640 as a human being,
01:30:02.120 something's wrong with us when we don't see the potential for that life.
01:30:07.280 And we don't say,
01:30:08.320 no,
01:30:08.500 no,
01:30:08.600 no,
01:30:08.760 no,
01:30:09.060 no,
01:30:09.240 no,
01:30:09.400 no,
01:30:09.520 no.
01:30:11.480 First of all,
01:30:12.020 there've been people that have gotten through a lot more than you have.
01:30:15.940 And the parents were on board with us,
01:30:17.780 weren't they?
01:30:18.340 Yeah.
01:30:18.960 I mean,
01:30:19.260 can you imagine?
01:30:20.460 No.
01:30:20.740 Look,
01:30:21.620 it's,
01:30:21.780 it's,
01:30:22.320 it's a tough situation in certain circumstances.
01:30:26.680 I understand that.
01:30:27.740 But the problem here is like,
01:30:29.000 like it would be unthinkable to an American parent right now to go to them and say,
01:30:32.760 Hey,
01:30:32.960 your,
01:30:33.280 your kid's in a lot of pain.
01:30:34.820 They're really suffering.
01:30:36.460 Do you,
01:30:37.020 do you want them dead?
01:30:38.060 Right.
01:30:38.480 And of course,
01:30:39.060 everyone would say no.
01:30:40.280 The issue in these other countries,
01:30:41.600 after a certain amount of time,
01:30:42.980 there's no more stigma,
01:30:44.340 right?
01:30:44.540 Like they,
01:30:44.920 they just like,
01:30:45.780 Oh,
01:30:46.100 well,
01:30:46.880 I guess.
01:30:47.900 Yeah.
01:30:48.120 I mean,
01:30:48.360 if she's saying she wants to be dead and it's legal,
01:30:50.480 and just go with it.
01:30:51.400 That's the same thing that happens with abortion,
01:30:52.880 right?
01:30:53.080 I mean,
01:30:53.280 people,
01:30:54.020 you know,
01:30:54.360 a lot of people who would normally not consider such a thing,
01:30:57.440 don't go down the road of really thinking it out because the government has made the
01:31:01.420 decision for them.
01:31:02.380 It's illegal.
01:31:03.000 It's a legal thing.
01:31:03.780 And it's the same thing.
01:31:04.580 It happened.
01:31:04.920 And then the same thing happened with slavery.
01:31:06.840 There are tons of people who were not,
01:31:09.160 you know,
01:31:09.940 some of the founders,
01:31:10.920 right?
01:31:11.060 Like what was David Barton saying yesterday?
01:31:12.540 We were doing a thing on slavery coming up for a future show.
01:31:15.200 And he was saying that I think about a quarter of people in that founding era believed the horrible things that you'd believe about slavery.
01:31:24.940 You know,
01:31:25.140 that they're not really people.
01:31:26.300 They're really people.
01:31:26.940 It was good for them.
01:31:27.780 They lived terribly in Africa.
01:31:29.020 It's better here.
01:31:29.660 All the things that,
01:31:30.460 you know,
01:31:30.600 you would,
01:31:30.940 you would associate with a racist opinion about slavery from the founding era.
01:31:35.220 About a quarter of the founders believe that,
01:31:38.560 you know,
01:31:39.640 I think of the,
01:31:40.560 if you went to the average person in America,
01:31:43.280 there is not,
01:31:44.560 there's not the sort of thought put into that in the 1700s as to like the,
01:31:49.880 the weather slavery should be legal or not.
01:31:52.460 Every day they had been alive.
01:31:54.440 People had been slaves.
01:31:56.040 African-Americans were treated as second class citizens or 15,
01:31:59.660 class citizens.
01:32:00.420 The entire time it was like this all over the world.
01:32:03.420 And unless your job is to sit down and rethink these things and challenge those sort of long held viewpoints,
01:32:10.780 you never get to a point where you even consider,
01:32:13.240 I would say a good portion,
01:32:15.500 75%,
01:32:16.840 I bet of people who consider themselves pro-choice have put such little thought into it that they couldn't defend it.
01:32:23.780 Right.
01:32:23.940 Like they wouldn't be able to defend.
01:32:25.360 And I believe me,
01:32:26.340 every conversation I have with someone who is pro-choice can't defend it.
01:32:31.260 You can't get there because there isn't a defense to it.
01:32:35.840 When,
01:32:36.400 with the exception of,
01:32:37.280 you know,
01:32:37.400 some people who really have like philosophically thought about this for a long time.
01:32:41.240 There's some that really know those arguments and,
01:32:43.120 and fall on a side that I don't really truly understand,
01:32:46.120 but the average person isn't there at all.
01:32:48.080 They see that it's legal.
01:32:49.100 They see that what they get from people like Miley Cyrus is evil men are telling you what to do.
01:32:56.360 And that's not right.
01:32:58.060 So give money to these people.
01:32:59.400 The nice people think of killing your baby is okay.
01:33:02.220 The mean people think it's not.
01:33:04.160 Therefore go with the nice people,
01:33:05.340 the cool people.
01:33:06.280 That's how generally speaking,
01:33:08.100 people view this.
01:33:09.120 And they always say this thing about how,
01:33:10.920 you know,
01:33:11.680 who can't have an opinion on abortion are men,
01:33:13.740 right?
01:33:13.880 This is a women's health issue.
01:33:15.900 And of course,
01:33:17.060 as a man,
01:33:17.680 I find that can be completely offensive.
01:33:19.500 Certainly plenty of women vote on things that only affect men and they have opinions on it.
01:33:23.820 And they should.
01:33:24.820 You're an American citizen.
01:33:25.880 We have a first amendment.
01:33:26.720 You should have an opinion on whatever you want.
01:33:28.320 The funny thing about this though,
01:33:29.540 in poll after poll after poll,
01:33:31.500 women are more opposed to abortion than men are.
01:33:34.840 This makes plenty of sense because it's men who are able to get out of the responsibility,
01:33:39.580 right?
01:33:39.760 Like men don't want to think about yourself as a 22 year old schlub and you just knocked up some girl.
01:33:44.920 You barely know.
01:33:45.920 And she's like,
01:33:46.600 I don't know.
01:33:46.960 Maybe I'll have an abortion.
01:33:48.100 If you don't have a moral obligation to say,
01:33:50.700 no,
01:33:50.980 please have the baby.
01:33:52.260 What are you going to say?
01:33:53.440 I'll,
01:33:53.900 yeah,
01:33:54.080 go ahead.
01:33:54.500 I'll drive you to the clinic.
01:33:55.220 I'll pay for the thing,
01:33:56.380 right?
01:33:56.580 Like if you have no moral qualms with it,
01:33:58.460 of course,
01:33:58.920 as a guy,
01:33:59.540 you're going to be getting out of this,
01:34:01.040 you know,
01:34:01.540 this,
01:34:01.960 this responsibility for the rest of your life.
01:34:04.400 You're going to avoid the punishment of a baby to put it frankly.
01:34:08.420 So of course,
01:34:09.720 guys are going to be more.
01:34:12.220 Yeah.
01:34:12.520 You know,
01:34:12.780 abortion sounds pretty wonderful.
01:34:14.200 You're the one,
01:34:15.120 you don't have to go through the procedure.
01:34:16.380 You get out of the punishment from a baby and women who are the ones,
01:34:20.360 only ones who are supposed to have opinions on this are actually more against
01:34:23.080 abortion than men are.
01:34:24.560 So the long thing,
01:34:26.460 the end of this is turning this into a cultural issue is one of the most
01:34:30.800 brilliant strategies of all time.
01:34:32.940 It's not culture.
01:34:34.340 Slavery wasn't culture.
01:34:36.460 Slavery was not a cultural issue.
01:34:38.280 It wasn't about like,
01:34:39.520 well,
01:34:39.740 the rights of the slave owner.
01:34:41.740 I mean,
01:34:42.200 that was a horrific moral fall failure.
01:34:46.720 And so is this.
01:34:48.900 And the fact that Miley Cyrus,
01:34:50.660 who I would also describe as a horrific moral,
01:34:52.840 moral failure is on that side of the argument should not be surprising.
01:34:56.600 Well,
01:34:57.740 yeah,
01:34:58.080 but she was licking a cake.
01:34:59.380 Did you see that?
01:35:00.180 It was really,
01:35:00.960 it looked really good.
01:35:02.280 I thought I'd put on my cake.
01:35:04.420 Skanks shouldn't lick my cake,
01:35:06.340 but that's probably wrong.
01:35:08.760 It's probably.
01:35:10.080 Yeah.
01:35:10.320 All right.
01:35:10.820 Let me tell you about America.
01:35:12.960 You can tweet what should be on my cake today.
01:35:17.160 So anyway,
01:35:18.240 June could see mortgage interest rates dropping to the lowest it's been since 2018.
01:35:24.520 It's crazy.
01:35:26.480 What's happening?
01:35:27.740 American financing,
01:35:28.840 call them today and get pre-qualified for a home loan.
01:35:31.340 It takes a 10 minute call to get started.
01:35:34.260 Now you can afford to,
01:35:36.340 own your own home.
01:35:37.360 If you call American financing and ask them about the down payment assistance programs,
01:35:40.920 it can get you into a,
01:35:41.960 into a home for very little down.
01:35:45.420 American financing works for you,
01:35:47.760 not the bank.
01:35:48.680 They are going to look at your financial situation and they should counsel you and you should listen.
01:35:56.120 When they say,
01:35:57.160 you know,
01:35:57.460 this is going to put you,
01:35:58.480 I mean,
01:35:58.740 if you have a bump in the road,
01:35:59.720 that's going to put you in a hard spot.
01:36:02.220 Don't do anything stupid.
01:36:04.480 In fact,
01:36:05.120 do the opposite.
01:36:06.340 Get a loan,
01:36:07.560 get it with low interest rates,
01:36:10.000 lock those low interest rates and do it with American financing.
01:36:14.220 They don't take commission on the loans.
01:36:16.000 So they work for you.
01:36:17.820 Take advantage of these historical,
01:36:19.600 historically low rates.
01:36:20.760 Now at American financing at 800-906-2440.
01:36:25.380 That's 800-906-2440.

01:36:35.980 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
01:36:39.160 So I just have to say,
01:36:59.040 because we're on talk radio and this market.
01:37:03.300 I just brought in my new gun.
01:37:04.940 I got a new gun and I have been looking for a handgun that I love.
01:37:09.680 And I've been carrying SIGs for a long time and it was the first gun I got.
01:37:13.260 And so I'm a better shot with a SIG than anything else.
01:37:15.780 But I like Glocks and I,
01:37:17.480 you know,
01:37:18.160 but I'm just a better shot with a SIG.
01:37:20.600 So I always carry SIG.
01:37:22.480 Well,
01:37:22.720 SIG has just come out with their,
01:37:24.640 their new,
01:37:25.860 what is it?
01:37:26.280 The P320.
01:37:29.000 Oh my gosh,
01:37:29.860 this is the greatest handgun I've ever owned.
01:37:32.520 It's a weapon of war.
01:37:33.800 Yes.
01:37:34.260 Elizabeth Warren is crying herself to sleep right now.
01:37:37.440 This thing is so great.
01:37:39.740 The military is now using it.
01:37:42.200 It's a,
01:37:43.160 21 rounds,
01:37:45.860 21 rounds in a handgun.
01:37:49.000 Uh,
01:37:49.640 and it is,
01:37:51.120 it is so good.
01:37:52.680 I have a big hand and this actually fits my hand.
01:37:56.200 Everything I've ever had,
01:37:58.420 uh,
01:37:59.280 especially with SIG and Glock and everybody else,
01:38:01.620 my last finger comes off of it because it's not long enough.
01:38:05.240 This is just the greatest gun out of 21 shots,
01:38:09.860 21 of,
01:38:11.460 uh,
01:38:11.800 20 of them right on the bullseye.
01:38:14.820 It is super accurate,
01:38:16.740 super easy to use.
01:38:18.320 I love it.
01:38:19.620 If you're looking for a new handgun,
01:38:21.060 they're not paying me to say this.
01:38:22.780 Uh,
01:38:23.180 and I wouldn't tell you if I didn't believe it anyway.
01:38:24.900 Um,
01:38:25.860 I just got this and I love it.
01:38:28.620 I absolutely love it.
01:38:30.000 It's the P three 20.
01:38:32.460 Uh,
01:38:32.940 what is it?
01:38:33.500 The X five?
01:38:34.500 It says here,
01:38:35.120 I guess.
01:38:36.160 Um,
01:38:36.560 but it's really,
01:38:37.900 really great.
01:38:38.400 You know what that looks like to me?
01:38:39.920 A weapon of war designed to kill.
01:38:43.120 That's what it looks like.
01:38:44.020 That's what all guns are for.
01:38:46.460 Yeah.
01:38:46.700 Yes.
01:38:47.300 Thank you.
01:38:48.220 That's what they're all.
01:38:49.020 Thank you for admitting it.
01:38:50.620 Finally,
01:38:51.120 you right wing extremist.
01:38:53.800 No,
01:38:54.400 that's what you did.
01:38:55.380 You hear Obama,
01:38:56.220 what he said on stage.
01:38:57.440 we have to cover that.
01:38:58.720 Do we have,
01:38:59.140 we have time to play this real quick.
01:39:02.160 Play,
01:39:02.720 play it.
01:39:03.200 Here's Obama.
01:39:05.240 And some of you may be aware of our gun laws in the United States.
01:39:10.260 Don't make much sense.
01:39:12.000 Anybody can buy any weapon anytime.
01:39:14.280 Nope.
01:39:15.300 Not true.
01:39:19.300 The crowd seemed to love that.
01:39:24.460 Yeah.
01:39:25.060 Without much,
01:39:25.980 if any regulation,
01:39:28.160 they can buy it over the internet,
01:39:29.500 they can buy machine guns,
01:39:31.280 machine guns without any or much regulation.
01:39:34.740 No,
01:39:35.200 you can't do that.
01:39:36.340 No,
01:39:36.660 you can't do that.
01:39:37.200 In fact,
01:39:37.360 I just tried to buy this pistol.
01:39:39.480 I happen to be in a store in Utah.
01:39:41.500 I was on my way to Idaho and I have a Texas license.
01:39:46.720 So I had to go.
01:39:48.040 It took me three days to get this gun.
01:39:50.380 That sounds like a kind of a problem.
01:39:54.140 Kind of sounds like that was a little bit of,
01:39:55.980 a hassle.
01:39:56.660 It sounds like there's some regulation there and some loopholes.
01:39:59.760 I couldn't just walk in and buy any gun.
01:40:02.480 If that's what it is for a handgun,
01:40:04.660 how difficult is it for a machine gun?
01:40:08.100 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
01:40:10.540 Oh,
01:40:10.760 the lies on the guns thing.
01:40:13.280 All right.

01:41:21.900 So I don't know if you've seen Netflix,
01:41:26.040 their series,
01:41:27.100 our planet it's documentary and it's David Attenborough,
01:41:31.180 blah,
01:41:31.380 blah,
01:41:31.460 blah.
01:41:31.660 And everybody thinks,
01:41:32.360 Oh,
01:41:32.460 it's beautiful.
01:41:32.940 And it's got all kinds of great information in it.
01:41:34.940 Oh my gosh,
01:41:35.480 these walruses are committing suicide.
01:41:39.020 There is a,
01:41:40.040 there is a researcher,
01:41:41.880 a zoologist with 35 years of experience,
01:41:44.380 especially on Arctic animals.
01:41:47.440 And she said,
01:41:49.400 no,
01:41:49.620 no,
01:41:49.720 this is just Netflix and their tragedy porn.
01:41:52.180 The climate hoax.
01:41:54.260 I don't know if you can put your kids in front of our planet and just say,
01:41:57.900 Oh yeah,
01:41:58.160 watch this.
01:41:58.760 It's great because it's full of nonsense.
01:42:02.860 And they're,
01:42:03.640 they're saying these walruses are,
01:42:05.580 you know,
01:42:06.360 falling to their death because they're starving to death and there's no ice.
01:42:10.260 And it's very sad.
01:42:11.240 It's awful to watch,
01:42:12.280 but she said,
01:42:13.440 that's not what's happening.
01:42:15.340 And Susan is with us now.
01:42:16.880 Hello,
01:42:17.120 Susan.
01:42:17.380 How are you?
01:42:18.340 I'm just fine.
01:42:19.220 Thanks.
01:42:19.520 Good morning.
01:42:20.200 So,
01:42:20.740 so tell me about the walruses that are,
01:42:23.180 I mean,
01:42:23.940 just plunging to their death because there's no ice.
01:42:27.680 Well,
01:42:28.480 in fact,
01:42:29.080 the whole,
01:42:29.900 the hollows of walrus,
01:42:31.580 these are mostly mothers with their calves on these Arctic beaches.
01:42:38.160 They're really natural events that are not caused by lack of sea ice.
01:42:42.980 They've always happened.
01:42:44.920 And the,
01:42:45.640 the herds come on,
01:42:48.680 on,
01:42:49.420 onto the shore in large numbers because the walruses are more abundant now than they were even 50 years ago.
01:43:00.400 Okay.
01:43:01.120 So they have,
01:43:02.840 they're like a boom and bust society,
01:43:05.140 aren't they?
01:43:06.220 When they,
01:43:07.560 they go ahead.
01:43:09.440 No,
01:43:09.640 I was just going to say that,
01:43:10.860 that they,
01:43:11.580 they have a tendency to the population builds higher and higher.
01:43:15.860 Um,
01:43:16.440 and then,
01:43:17.300 but then it,
01:43:18.500 they outstrip their food supply and then animals starve and the population goes down until the,
01:43:25.840 um,
01:43:26.200 food supply can rebuild.
01:43:27.700 And mostly they're eating clams and things like that,
01:43:30.700 that live on the,
01:43:31.520 uh,
01:43:31.940 bottom of the ocean.
01:43:33.560 So what is this,
01:43:35.020 this haul out is,
01:43:36.580 what does that mean?
01:43:38.240 The haul out?
01:43:39.540 Well,
01:43:40.460 walruses are purred animals.
01:43:42.180 They really like to,
01:43:43.460 um,
01:43:44.120 stick together.
01:43:44.880 And in fact,
01:43:45.580 they really prefer to be tightly packed.
01:43:49.200 And so they,
01:43:51.140 um,
01:43:51.600 group together.
01:43:52.560 The haul out just means grouping together.
01:43:54.960 And so when,
01:43:56.100 uh,
01:43:56.960 when there's sea ice available,
01:43:58.360 they will haul out on the,
01:44:01.080 on the ice in fairly large groups.
01:44:03.700 And at other times they will haul out on beaches.
01:44:07.400 And,
01:44:08.200 but they don't,
01:44:09.920 um,
01:44:11.020 they have been hauling out on beaches since the 1800s.
01:44:15.660 There's been records going back,
01:44:17.380 um,
01:44:18.040 the,
01:44:18.340 of those haul outs,
01:44:19.460 both on the,
01:44:20.700 um,
01:44:21.280 coast of Russia,
01:44:22.680 um,
01:44:23.820 near the Bering Sea and also on the coast of Alaska.
01:44:26.580 So this is a behavior that's quite natural for them.
01:44:30.560 And it really isn't sea ice dependent.
01:44:34.220 It's something that happens in the late summer and fall,
01:44:38.100 um,
01:44:38.800 on a fairly regular basis.
01:44:40.200 And so they've been doing this since we've started noticing them and,
01:44:44.080 and recording them.
01:44:45.220 And they go up onto the beach or onto the rocks and they're all,
01:44:49.920 uh,
01:44:51.060 tightly packed in.
01:44:52.900 And,
01:44:53.580 and is it just kind of like a whole bunch of,
01:44:56.440 you know,
01:44:56.820 puppies on a bed and,
01:44:58.360 you know,
01:44:58.600 somebody moves and another person moves and one of the puppies would fall
01:45:01.480 off the bed.
01:45:02.020 I mean,
01:45:02.280 they're not committing suicide and they're,
01:45:04.480 they're just,
01:45:05.500 they're just so packed tightly that.
01:45:07.740 Is that what's happening?
01:45:09.500 Exactly.
01:45:10.040 Exactly.
01:45:10.640 And,
01:45:11.100 and the other thing is that they,
01:45:12.740 um,
01:45:12.980 they're also quite easily spooked at that point in time,
01:45:16.240 because these are mostly mothers with their calves.
01:45:19.240 They're very protective.
01:45:20.460 And if,
01:45:22.300 if one of the animals at the back of the pack,
01:45:25.600 sort of on the beach side,
01:45:27.100 gets frightened and starts heading for the water,
01:45:30.100 because that's their natural instinct when they're frightened,
01:45:32.820 then they sort of push the herd,
01:45:35.060 uh,
01:45:35.500 ahead of them.
01:45:36.620 And in fact,
01:45:37.840 hundreds of animals can be trampled even along a flat beach.
01:45:41.640 But if they've managed to get themselves up onto a high cliff,
01:45:46.520 then there's no alternative to,
01:45:49.180 but to fall over the edge.
01:45:51.280 And it's not only certain that that's what happened,
01:45:55.980 um,
01:45:56.520 in the Netflix video,
01:45:57.880 but we know from,
01:45:59.440 um,
01:46:00.180 reports that were,
01:46:01.260 um,
01:46:01.860 issued in the newspaper that there was an polar bears had actually spooked
01:46:09.180 walruses off the same cliff that was filmed in that video two days before it
01:46:14.520 was filmed.
01:46:15.840 So wait a minute.
01:46:16.280 So wait,
01:46:16.540 because in that film,
01:46:17.800 it shows all these walruses down at the bottom of the pile of rocks.
01:46:20.960 And you think,
01:46:21.800 Oh my gosh,
01:46:22.500 they're just,
01:46:23.220 they're just all dying.
01:46:24.740 And I wish there was just an ice slope there to just gently push them back
01:46:29.040 in the water.
01:46:30.140 But you're saying not only is it normal and natural for them to go up on the
01:46:35.180 rocks and then have no place to go,
01:46:37.240 but over the cliff,
01:46:38.340 but you're saying that that big pile was also partly caused by polar bears
01:46:44.340 and them up at the top of the cliff going,
01:46:46.120 Oh crap.
01:46:46.500 Oh crap.
01:46:46.900 Oh crap.
01:46:47.240 And backing up over the cliff.
01:46:49.120 Yes,
01:46:49.760 absolutely.
01:46:50.500 Oh my gosh.
01:46:51.700 Yeah.
01:46:51.940 And because we know that there was this incident that was,
01:46:55.860 um,
01:46:56.620 initiated by polar bears,
01:46:58.420 um,
01:46:59.520 that happened just two days before we know that most of those,
01:47:04.060 um,
01:47:04.680 animals that were filmed,
01:47:06.240 um,
01:47:07.040 the carcass cause our carcasses laying along the beach,
01:47:09.800 um,
01:47:10.540 almost certainly happened that in the,
01:47:13.040 from the polar bear spooked incident.
01:47:15.600 And what we think happened was that there were members from,
01:47:21.680 um,
01:47:22.320 world wildlife foundation or,
01:47:24.300 um,
01:47:24.800 the WWF who were on site at the time and part of the whole Netflix team called that the film crew in to come and film the walruses.
01:47:37.000 Oh my gosh.
01:47:40.000 And so it was really a whole contrived setup.
01:47:44.180 And in looking at what was happening,
01:47:47.920 we know that there were still polar bears in the area.
01:47:50.720 I've seen the film.
01:47:52.220 In fact,
01:47:52.720 the closing shot shows a polar bear coming out of the water onto the beach to feed on the walruses,
01:48:00.520 the dead walruses.
01:48:02.100 And,
01:48:02.520 but when you're looking at how the,
01:48:06.120 the whole footage was shot,
01:48:08.280 um,
01:48:08.820 there's a,
01:48:09.620 uh,
01:48:10.000 a cameraman positioned just about at the place where the walruses could have come safely down from the cliff,
01:48:18.500 but that was,
01:48:19.920 that way was blocked.
01:48:21.060 And if there were still polar bears in the area,
01:48:23.480 they could have been coming up from on the backside of the cliff,
01:48:26.740 or at least the walruses could have smelled them.
01:48:29.440 Even that would have set them off.
01:48:30.860 What we also know is that some of the shots in the film had to have been taken with a drone.
01:48:38.560 Now,
01:48:39.220 even a drone flying overhead could also have spooked them.
01:48:42.860 So we've got a situation where the filmmakers themselves.
01:48:47.840 This is unbelievable.
01:48:48.900 Could have been complicit in,
01:48:51.080 um,
01:48:52.060 in generating at least the walruses that filmed,
01:48:56.560 that fell,
01:48:57.400 that they filmed.
01:48:58.320 And then they attributed all of that to a lack of sea ice blamed on climate change.
01:49:06.280 So how much of,
01:49:07.600 how much of these series,
01:49:08.780 because my son watches them,
01:49:10.300 my daughter watches them,
01:49:11.260 I've watched them.
01:49:12.140 And there's times when I rolled my eyes and gone,
01:49:14.620 okay,
01:49:15.160 but I like,
01:49:16.180 I didn't know all this about the walruses.
01:49:18.260 How much of these things can we even sit down and let our kids watch?
01:49:24.620 And trust that it's true.
01:49:26.680 Well,
01:49:28.280 I think really what the only thing that you can do is let your kids watch it.
01:49:33.720 I mean,
01:49:34.060 it's beautiful photography.
01:49:36.080 That's beautiful.
01:49:37.140 There's no,
01:49:37.920 there's no doubt that it actually is.
01:49:40.500 Um,
01:49:41.100 you know,
01:49:41.760 parts of it are true.
01:49:43.240 I mean,
01:49:43.800 the hall outs are true,
01:49:45.180 but you,
01:49:46.100 you have to take the commentary with a grain of salt,
01:49:50.640 but you also have to be prepared ahead of time to talk to your kids about the fact that everything that is said there might not be true.
01:49:58.900 And Hey,
01:49:59.920 maybe we should follow up and look into this.
01:50:03.820 And they've said that this,
01:50:05.060 this is why this happened.
01:50:06.820 Let's go and look up to see,
01:50:09.460 you know,
01:50:10.240 what the background information is on that.
01:50:13.060 And I think that if parents are prepared to follow up with their kids,
01:50:17.840 um,
01:50:19.040 and to look into that,
01:50:20.720 that,
01:50:21.100 um,
01:50:21.920 it makes it a learning experience.
01:50:24.060 Susan,
01:50:24.760 I,
01:50:24.960 I gotta tell you,
01:50:25.800 I,
01:50:26.180 you know,
01:50:26.660 they don't have access to a zoologist like you,
01:50:29.920 like I do.
01:50:30.940 Uh,
01:50:31.500 and you go online,
01:50:33.440 I'm sure WWF and,
01:50:37.000 uh,
01:50:37.720 uh,
01:50:38.620 you know,
01:50:39.120 and all of these global warming,
01:50:41.200 um,
01:50:42.860 institutions have,
01:50:44.320 have rushed to put things out that say it is true.
01:50:48.160 I mean,
01:50:48.960 how do you know what's true?
01:50:50.520 How do you know what a trusted source is on actual science?
01:50:54.060 No,
01:50:55.500 well,
01:50:55.760 that is true for sure.
01:50:57.560 And,
01:50:57.920 but what you can do,
01:50:59.340 I mean,
01:50:59.540 it's one of the reasons that I've been blogging about polar bears since 2012,
01:51:03.820 and that's to actually make sure that the information is up there for people to find on the internet.
01:51:12.280 Now,
01:51:12.600 people might say,
01:51:13.700 well,
01:51:14.100 how do I trust you?
01:51:16.000 However,
01:51:16.400 what I do is make sure that I list the sources where I get my information from so that people can follow it up.
01:51:23.220 But at the very least,
01:51:24.980 when there's information like that available,
01:51:27.100 you can say,
01:51:28.140 oh,
01:51:28.400 okay,
01:51:28.740 well,
01:51:29.060 there's two sides to the story.
01:51:30.700 This person's saying this,
01:51:31.760 this person's saying that,
01:51:33.100 then maybe I have to leave that,
01:51:35.920 any interpretation,
01:51:37.000 um,
01:51:38.960 up in the air and just say that it can't,
01:51:42.840 none of it can be trusted.
01:51:43.960 And,
01:51:44.620 and that's really,
01:51:45.360 uh,
01:51:46.620 an awful place for science to be in.
01:51:49.420 Hmm.
01:51:50.600 Okay.
01:51:51.160 Uh,
01:51:51.440 Susan,
01:51:51.780 thank you so much for being on with us.
01:51:53.700 Um,
01:51:54.100 we really appreciate your time.
01:51:55.480 Her name is Susan Crockford.
01:51:57.340 Uh,
01:51:57.760 she is a zoologist and author of the book,
01:52:00.360 the polar bear catastrophe that never happened.
01:52:03.160 Uh,
01:52:03.680 you can read her article.
01:52:05.100 Netflix is lying about those falling walruses at the financial post.
01:52:09.520 Uh,
01:52:10.260 and her website is polar bear science.com.
01:52:13.440 That's polar bear science.com.
01:52:21.080 Easy.
01:52:22.840 Just crazy.
01:52:24.320 So did you see yesterday the fed,
01:52:26.680 because everybody's freaking about,
01:52:28.560 freaking out about the trade war with,
01:52:30.420 uh,
01:52:32.100 with China and now Mexico next week.
01:52:34.580 Um,
01:52:35.440 did you see that the fed actually has reversed itself and said,
01:52:39.520 it looks like it's going to start maybe dropping rates.
01:52:43.380 Yeah,
01:52:43.920 that's not,
01:52:44.600 that's a,
01:52:45.300 that's not a good sign.
01:52:46.340 Emitting weakness in the economy.
01:52:47.480 Yeah,
01:52:47.720 that's not a good sign.
01:52:49.600 Um,
01:52:50.360 uh,
01:52:50.820 and you drop the rates and you know,
01:52:53.280 that's just going to produce more cash out there,
01:52:55.920 more debt.
01:52:57.080 It's,
01:52:57.660 it's,
01:52:58.020 that's not a good thing.
01:53:01.040 May I suggest that you call gold line.
01:53:03.660 Uh,
01:53:04.180 we are coming to a place,
01:53:05.980 uh,
01:53:07.080 where everything's about to change and I don't know how long it's going to
01:53:11.520 change and how long it's going to take,
01:53:13.120 but,
01:53:13.880 uh,
01:53:14.500 it's,
01:53:15.180 it's about to change.
01:53:16.360 And,
01:53:17.120 uh,
01:53:17.400 the financial situation,
01:53:18.880 if we got to pray for the president and his team,
01:53:22.580 that they do the right things and they,
01:53:24.460 they keep their eye on the ball on this.
01:53:27.120 Um,
01:53:27.640 but eventually this,
01:53:29.820 this house of cards has to come down and we'll go through a recession or
01:53:34.040 something.
01:53:34.320 And it's just,
01:53:35.020 it's just the way it is.
01:53:37.260 Gold line would like to remind you that these things are cyclical and there
01:53:41.480 are things that you can do.
01:53:42.560 There's a reason why gold is having the month that it's been having.
01:53:45.500 It's having a very good month because people start to say,
01:53:48.880 wait a minute.
01:53:49.280 I don't think this is,
01:53:50.220 I don't think this is also sound right now.
01:53:52.980 Gold line is offering a four coin collection from 1881.
01:53:57.500 It's the $5 Liberty coins from the U S this was,
01:54:02.840 you know,
01:54:03.600 these were done in 1881,
01:54:05.380 but the,
01:54:06.000 you know,
01:54:06.140 in the middle of the 1800s,
01:54:07.840 this is what most people had for cash.
01:54:10.360 This would be like a $5 bill.
01:54:13.060 These are not worth $5,
01:54:14.740 uh,
01:54:15.120 anymore,
01:54:15.460 uh,
01:54:17.120 because we've inflated our money.
01:54:19.300 Gold is not,
01:54:22.120 you know,
01:54:22.660 it,
01:54:22.840 it,
01:54:23.220 uh,
01:54:24.100 it just remains the same.
01:54:26.340 And what you could buy with one of these pieces for $5 back in 1881 is
01:54:32.140 about what you could get for it now.
01:54:34.220 And by that same kind of article,
01:54:36.300 uh,
01:54:37.280 for the equivalent of 1881,
01:54:40.460 $5 bill,
01:54:41.600 these coins were the ones that made it through the depression.
01:54:45.880 If you had these coins,
01:54:47.280 you could still hold onto them.
01:54:49.200 Uh,
01:54:49.700 they have lady Liberty on the front 13 stars around it.
01:54:53.480 The,
01:54:53.720 uh,
01:54:54.020 Eagle,
01:54:54.900 uh,
01:54:55.460 from the United States on the back.
01:54:57.140 And they're all clearly marked 1881.
01:55:00.060 Please consider looking at these coins,
01:55:03.540 especially if you already have gold.
01:55:04.960 These are the kinds of things that I buy,
01:55:06.420 but if you,
01:55:07.140 even if you already have gold,
01:55:08.380 these are good investment.
01:55:09.480 In my opinion,
01:55:10.500 it's gold line at gold line.com.
01:55:12.840 You can call one eight six six gold line,
01:55:14.940 read your own info,
01:55:15.840 you know,
01:55:16.160 your own,
01:55:16.780 your own stuff.
01:55:17.640 You're smart enough to figure this out.
01:55:19.420 Don't listen.
01:55:20.240 Don't take my word for it.
01:55:21.720 I invest for a different reason.
01:55:23.520 And I buy these coins for a different reason than maybe you do find out all you need to know from gold line and gold line.com.
01:55:30.800 They're waiting for your call now at eight six six gold line.
01:55:33.340 That's one eight six six gold line or gold line.com.
01:55:37.620 Hey,
01:55:38.260 um,
01:55:38.940 so president Trump just landed in Ireland.
01:55:41.360 Uh,
01:55:42.360 I wonder if he said,
01:55:43.640 Oh,
01:55:44.000 top of the morning to you.
01:55:45.820 Look at the sun.
01:55:47.860 If the media would be as kind as they were to Barack Obama.
01:55:53.220 Oh,
01:55:53.340 I think so.
01:55:55.260 Immediately.
01:55:55.620 They would say that was a very solid Irish accent.
01:55:58.860 Yeah.
01:55:59.300 Yeah.
01:55:59.580 And approve it completely.
01:56:00.380 I've got Donna Shalala with me.
01:56:03.320 What?
01:56:07.480 Yeah.
01:56:07.960 He's,
01:56:08.360 uh,
01:56:08.580 the,
01:56:09.220 the coverage of this is so,
01:56:10.800 I mean,
01:56:11.180 they,
01:56:11.340 they just,
01:56:11.960 it's all about like the balloon.
01:56:14.200 There's a balloon of Donald Trump in the diaper.
01:56:17.100 I love the fact that that balloon was stabbed.
01:56:20.540 I love the fact the person came up to it.
01:56:22.640 It was like,
01:56:23.000 he's the greatest president ever.
01:56:24.720 And then stabbed it,
01:56:25.720 ripped a hole in it.
01:56:26.480 And so it deflated.
01:56:27.860 Yeah.
01:56:27.960 It's actually interesting because,
01:56:29.520 you know,
01:56:29.920 usually Republican presidents are not at all popular anywhere overseas.
01:56:34.620 Um,
01:56:35.140 and Trump is not at all popular in London,
01:56:38.760 but in the country,
01:56:40.460 generally speaking,
01:56:41.380 that he has a lot of support.
01:56:42.520 I mean,
01:56:42.880 because remember half of this country voted for Brexit and basically every world leader said they were terrible except Donald Trump.
01:56:49.480 Yeah.
01:56:49.980 No,
01:56:50.220 he's,
01:56:50.580 he's with the people.
01:56:52.420 He's just,
01:56:53.140 I mean,
01:56:53.320 it's just like Ronald Reagan.
01:56:55.080 It was the same thing in the way it was.
01:56:57.260 I remember in Ronald Reagan,
01:56:58.380 Ronald Reagan would go to England and he was hated.
01:57:01.800 The only thing was,
01:57:02.940 is he had,
01:57:03.600 uh,
01:57:04.320 uh,
01:57:04.640 almost said Theresa May,
01:57:05.980 um,
01:57:06.660 Margaret Thatcher,
01:57:07.420 who they hated as much as they hated Reagan.
01:57:10.500 So it was the two of them going,
01:57:12.000 I don't really care.
01:57:13.700 Yeah.
01:57:14.140 Theresa May care,
01:57:15.160 I cares,
01:57:15.600 I guess,
01:57:15.880 or she wouldn't be stepping down.
01:57:17.240 Right.
01:57:17.800 Yeah.
01:57:18.180 Yeah.
01:57:18.480 It's sad for her.
01:57:19.600 Yeah.
01:57:20.040 And they just like highlight every little thing.
01:57:21.620 They're like the gift from Theresa May was a document about the founding of NATO and other global organizations.
01:57:30.360 It's like,
01:57:31.440 uh,
01:57:32.340 why,
01:57:32.940 why is this even a thing?
01:57:34.240 I hope Boris Johnson gets in cause he is,
01:57:37.180 he's just got enough Trump in him that he just,
01:57:40.500 he just doesn't care.
01:57:41.680 I think his hair kind of is like Donald Trump's hair too.
01:57:45.200 And he may be the next prime minister,
01:57:47.600 which he's the favorite.
01:57:48.840 Yeah.
01:57:49.220 I mean,
01:57:49.660 guys like Donald Trump are,
01:57:51.780 are very popular with people who are sick of the media and the typical politician.
01:57:59.240 I don't care where you are in the world.
01:58:00.840 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
