The Glenn Beck Program - Manufactured Media Freak Outs？｜ Guest： Graham Allen

00:00:00.000 Home Title Lock is a great company because they are the only ones who can do something.

00:00:03.760 I think when you find a company that is the only one that can solve a problem,

00:00:06.980 this is a good company to be in business with.

00:00:09.880 It's a good company to sign up for.

00:00:11.120 This is one that we didn't even know this thing existed.

00:00:14.320 FBI says it's the fastest growing crime, you know, and cybercrime is big.

00:00:19.240 But this is not cybercrime.

00:00:21.480 This is old-fashioned crime.

00:00:23.100 They're actually not stealing the stuff in your house.

00:00:25.540 They're stealing your house.

00:00:27.420 And they have to do it with paper.

00:00:28.780 Yeah.

00:00:29.300 And they go down and they file the paperwork.

00:00:31.760 And it's like $40.

00:00:33.320 You forge a signature and you're done.

00:00:35.700 And you have the house.

00:00:38.220 Please check and see if your parents have been in crimes of this.

00:00:42.300 If you are a crime of this.

00:00:44.400 Only one company can stop it.

00:00:46.140 It's HomeTitleLock.com.

00:00:47.820 $100 search for free to make sure you haven't already been victimized.

00:00:52.180 HomeTitleLock.com.

00:00:53.280 Do it now.

00:00:55.500 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:00:58.720 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:02.760 I am wanting to say something and I'm just deciding now if I should say it or not.

00:01:12.560 Give me one minute.

00:01:13.480 Give me one minute.

00:01:14.360 Give me one minute.

00:01:15.260 Give me one minute.

00:01:18.220 And then I'll decide for sure if I'm going to say it or not.

00:01:23.340 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:25.680 Uh-oh.

00:01:26.380 Yeah.

00:01:26.820 No, I've got to.

00:01:27.580 We're going to do it.

00:01:28.540 We're going to play like 10 seconds of music after this commercial.

00:01:31.940 And Stu, be very focused.

00:01:33.720 I have 10 seconds to ask you a very important question.

00:01:38.940 All right.

00:01:41.520 Stu is just shaking his head.

00:01:43.700 Because I didn't think about it until it started coming out of my mouth.

00:01:47.540 That's why.

00:01:48.080 Because I know what you're thinking.

00:01:49.040 Why didn't you talk to us?

00:01:49.980 We've been sitting here for 40 minutes talking about the show.

00:01:52.200 Because it just started to come out.

00:01:54.300 All right.

00:01:54.880 American financing.

00:01:56.260 If you already own a home, you might want to think about refinancing.

00:02:01.320 Trust me on this.

00:02:03.000 Please.

00:02:03.920 Please.

00:02:04.820 I feel like the Glenn of 2007.

00:02:08.080 It was like, you know, you should probably be aware.

00:02:12.340 The bank thing is going to get really ugly soon.

00:02:16.740 I think loans are going to be very hard to get soon.

00:02:19.660 And when I say that, what I mean is I'm really bad at timing.

00:02:24.460 I don't know how soon.

00:02:26.020 But sometime coming, loans are going to be harder to get than they were in 2008.

00:02:32.620 Do you remember that?

00:02:33.680 And you do not want an adjustable mortgage.

00:02:38.160 So, refi right now.

00:02:40.980 And the only people I would trust to do this, American financing.

00:02:44.920 They have an A-plus rating with the Better Business Bureau.

00:02:47.840 They do not take kickbacks from the bank.

00:02:51.060 Because this is the biggest misconception.

00:02:53.640 I hope the bank gives me a loan.

00:02:55.600 They're not giving it to you.

00:02:57.540 When you sign the loan, you'll look down and you'll see how much they're charging.

00:03:04.140 It's crazy amounts of money.

00:03:06.480 They're selling you a loan.

00:03:08.400 So, make sure you have somebody on your side getting the best deal possible.

00:03:13.540 And that's American financing.

00:03:14.740 So, AmericanFinancing.net.

00:03:16.920 You want to close?

00:03:17.600 You want to close quickly with the right loan?

00:03:20.200 Refinance?

00:03:20.880 Buy your first home?

00:03:22.040 Last home?

00:03:22.780 Whatever it is.

00:03:34.760 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

00:03:37.960 So, you're saying no?

00:03:56.600 Seems like a difficult thing to get into is what I'm saying.

00:04:00.400 I mean, I just be.

00:04:02.720 Maybe it's a.

00:04:03.680 I'll give it a day.

00:04:04.560 I'll give it a day.

00:04:05.460 I want you to hear the whole argument.

00:04:06.780 I think I can make the whole argument.

00:04:09.780 I think I can make the whole argument.

00:04:11.400 I would like to hear it in more than 10 seconds.

00:04:13.600 Do you want to do it now?

00:04:14.260 Well, no.

00:04:14.860 You said you were going to take a day.

00:04:16.680 I would like to hear a more than 10 second thought out version of that argument.

00:04:21.080 All right.

00:04:21.680 All right.

00:04:22.420 I won't say it today.

00:04:24.740 I will say it tomorrow.

00:04:29.680 Here's the.

00:04:30.540 I'm going to say it anyway.

00:04:31.560 I just know what I can feel it in me.

00:04:33.480 All right.

00:04:34.000 Let's just look at the weekend.

00:04:36.480 Let's just look at the weekend.

00:04:39.500 What happened?

00:04:42.240 We had Ben Shapiro, a good friend of ours, say something about pro-life and pro-life people.

00:04:50.860 It was taken out of context.

00:04:53.640 It was run up every flagpole and he actually lost sponsors because of a statement that he made.

00:05:02.960 And here it is.

00:05:04.060 He made the statement, the pro-life statement that, you know, the guys who are standing up for pro-life, they believe in life.

00:05:12.840 They wouldn't have even killed Hitler as a baby.

00:05:18.260 Oh, my gosh.

00:05:20.400 That's horrible.

00:05:22.360 They wouldn't have even killed Hitler.

00:05:24.700 No, they, as he went on to say, they would have said, let's put him in a good home.

00:05:30.260 Give him good parents.

00:05:32.140 You know, if you can go back in a time machine, would you kill Hitler?

00:05:34.840 No, we don't kill innocent babies.

00:05:37.940 And we don't kill people who have not yet committed crimes either.

00:05:40.880 Wait, what have we, a minority report?

00:05:42.900 How is this controversial?

00:05:45.000 First of all, he's Jewish.

00:05:47.280 He's also the victim of the most anti-Semitic attacks in the entire media.

00:05:52.480 The argument is what?

00:05:53.400 He's pro-Hitler?

00:05:55.040 I mean, how stupid do you have to be to believe these things?

00:05:58.780 So there's strike one.

00:06:00.280 There's strike one.

00:06:02.200 Strike two.

00:06:06.660 Actually, that should be strike three.

00:06:08.080 Strike two, because I want to count up.

00:06:09.420 Counting them up to the biggest outrage of the weekend.

00:06:12.900 Strike two is the Women's March.

00:06:17.340 So the Women's March happens this weekend.

00:06:21.700 And they actually get on stage.

00:06:25.020 And they are actually saying anti-Semitic things.

00:06:30.360 Now, we have said long ago, you don't know who these people are.

00:06:35.980 You don't know who these people are.

00:06:37.200 Look at who they are.

00:06:38.220 We've been saying this from the beginning.

00:06:39.740 You have a women's march led by these people?

00:06:44.000 You don't want to be in bed with those people.

00:06:46.560 Oh, we were crazy.

00:06:47.860 They were the greatest leaders, literally, the greatest leaders in the world.

00:06:53.300 Named by Fortune magazine.

00:06:55.240 The greatest leaders in the world.

00:06:58.640 Well, now the left has decided.

00:07:02.920 I shouldn't say the left.

00:07:03.860 Now, the Democrats are starting to say, these guys are really anti-Semites.

00:07:08.420 They're really, really bad.

00:07:09.920 And why are they saying that?

00:07:11.480 Not because we're saying it.

00:07:12.700 Because we have them on tape saying it, sitting while it's being said, and then defending what was said while they were sitting.

00:07:22.160 It's crazy.

00:07:23.320 So, the whole thing starts to shimmy apart.

00:07:27.080 The Democrats start to run for their lives.

00:07:29.420 And what do the women's march do?

00:07:30.880 They get up and they say more anti-Semitic things.

00:07:35.020 And the media says nothing.

00:07:38.880 Ben Shapiro saying that the pro-life people have such ethics that they believe that innocence is at birth.

00:07:52.220 That babies are innocent and they shouldn't be killed.

00:07:57.500 And they believe that so much, they wouldn't even kill baby Hitler.

00:08:02.080 That is a normal human being thing to say.

00:08:06.040 That is like how many, how many, you know, crappy sci-fi shows, you know, are on, you know, like, didn't, it's almost like it could be a Star Trek where we've got, oh my gosh, we found ourselves in a time tunnel.

00:08:21.760 And all of a sudden, we're back in 1939.

00:08:24.260 Doctor Who has done this.

00:08:25.980 Everybody has done this.

00:08:28.980 We don't kill innocent children is always the conclusion.

00:08:35.420 So, the anti-Semites saying anti-Semitic things gets nothing.

00:08:42.180 Ben Shapiro saying non-anti-Semitic things is basically called an anti-Semite for sticking up for babies.

00:08:55.340 Baby Hitler.

00:08:57.240 Un-frickin'-believable.

00:08:59.020 And now, to the number one outrage of the weekend.

00:09:04.380 Oh, yeah.

00:09:05.040 The number one outrage of the weekend has to be the kids from just across the water at Cincinnati, from the Catholic school, who are, in my opinion, Martin frickin' Luther King.

00:09:29.640 These kids are amazing kids.

00:09:37.900 What?

00:09:39.640 They were mocking a Native American.

00:09:42.060 No, they weren't.

00:09:43.480 No, they weren't.

00:09:45.500 First of all, this particular Native American has a history of doing these things.

00:09:52.300 These were professionals going up a bunch of kids.

00:09:57.520 And the kids acted admirably.

00:10:01.680 Okay, so let me just give you this.

00:10:03.560 I'm going to give you all of the tape to prove all of these things.

00:10:06.720 First of all, what we have is the picture of the kid looking defiant, sneering at the poor old Vietnam veteran Native American with his drum.

00:10:22.880 All he was doing was playing his drum.

00:10:27.160 And look at the sneer on this face.

00:10:30.600 Well, if you happen to watch all of the videotape, and you could spend about two hours, I spent about 45 minutes watching it, you kind of come back with a different impression.

00:10:45.020 First of all, the Native American walked up to the kid.

00:10:49.120 Okay?

00:10:49.540 The kid wasn't blocking his way.

00:10:51.540 The group of Native Americans walked up to the group of kids, intentionally trying to antagonize them.

00:11:02.860 You don't believe me?

00:11:06.800 Well, let me just give you a couple of things.

00:11:13.700 They were yelling, these are babies made out of incest.

00:11:21.540 The boy ran down the steps.

00:11:26.140 You can't see the angels around us.

00:11:30.260 A black man said, you all have one N-word in the crowd.

00:11:37.140 Your president, homosexuals.

00:11:41.040 These kids, as I will show you with the audio, these kids held their ground.

00:11:48.280 This kid, I watched the entire confrontation with the kid that is now famous, his face.

00:11:55.200 This kid stood there just to say, you don't intimidate me.

00:12:01.000 Because that's what the Native American group was trying to do.

00:12:04.520 They were saying, you don't belong here.

00:12:07.200 Go back to Europe.

00:12:08.600 All of these things.

00:12:10.020 Can you imagine?

00:12:11.060 Go back to Mexico.

00:12:12.600 That's what you were supposed to hear.

00:12:14.680 Gee, build that wall.

00:12:16.220 That wall never happened.

00:12:18.480 Never happened.

00:12:20.140 They weren't chanting that.

00:12:21.520 Instead, the Native Americans were saying to the white kids, go back to Europe.

00:12:27.720 They didn't report that.

00:12:29.800 So, what happened?

00:12:32.140 They marched up.

00:12:33.720 They were trying to get them to swing.

00:12:36.480 And that kid would not swing.

00:12:38.800 He smiled once.

00:12:42.480 Probably because he was in a stare down with an old Native American who was beating a drum.

00:12:48.060 And he had to have thought to himself at one point, this guy's an adult.

00:12:51.600 This is ridiculous.

00:12:52.940 I'm standing on the stand.

00:12:53.960 I'm just here in Washington.

00:12:55.660 I'm just, we're getting ready to go home.

00:12:58.220 And I'm standing here with this guy and all of these people screaming at us.

00:13:03.640 This is crazy.

00:13:05.320 And you hear many on many of the videotapes, people in the crowd going, what the hell is going on?

00:13:11.320 The boys, the Catholic boys going, what is going on?

00:13:15.700 Because they were all of a sudden under attack.

00:13:19.620 I'm going to play the audio when we come back of one of the kids.

00:13:23.080 One of the kids actually engaging because another Native American starts calling him names.

00:13:28.420 And so he starts using reason.

00:13:32.120 And that's when the boy in the photo breaks.

00:13:36.960 Oh, my gosh.

00:13:38.080 All you had to do was watch about two minutes of tape.

00:13:40.580 But that was too much, too much for the mainstream media to do.

00:13:46.300 These kids are Martin Luther King.

00:13:47.840 And do we need to remind you who he was?

00:13:50.080 Coming up.

00:13:54.260 Yeah.

00:13:54.740 We're going to get exposed the real story here in a second.

00:13:59.120 First, I want to tell you about CarShield.

00:14:01.100 If your car needs repairs, don't pay for it yourself.

00:14:04.480 Don't do it.

00:14:05.320 Get CarShield.

00:14:07.120 CarShield, if you have a car with 5,000 or 150,000 miles on it and you're out of warranty,

00:14:13.860 CarShield will have you covered.

00:14:15.600 And they cover all the big stuff.

00:14:17.880 And I want you to find out about these people because they have pulled my butt out of the fire

00:14:24.420 when it comes to going in and just, I just need an oil change.

00:14:27.540 You come back.

00:14:28.260 Oh, yeah.

00:14:28.580 We had to change a sensor.

00:14:29.780 It's $2,000.

00:14:31.240 What?

00:14:31.880 Yeah, but don't worry.

00:14:32.700 CarShield took care of it.

00:14:34.380 Unbelievable.

00:14:35.000 You don't have to care.

00:14:35.840 You don't care.

00:14:36.820 Yeah.

00:14:36.980 Those big moments that knock you off your financial path with huge repairs like that,

00:14:41.020 you don't have to worry about it because they're just taken care of.

00:14:42.920 1-800-CAR-6100.

00:14:48.580 Use the promo code BECK right now at CarShield.com.

00:14:53.220 That's CarShield.com or 1-800-CAR-6100.

00:14:58.200 Stay on the correct financial path.

00:15:01.580 All right.

00:15:01.880 We break for 10 seconds.

00:15:03.040 Station ID.

00:15:03.660 And then we come back with a reminder of who Martin Luther King really was.

00:15:07.380 So who was Martin Luther King?

00:15:25.680 Who was he?

00:15:27.420 I'm interested in seeing your, because I mean, what's your explanation as to why these kids

00:15:31.740 are Martin Luther King?

00:15:32.820 I certainly haven't heard that one in the media.

00:15:34.580 No.

00:15:35.040 No.

00:15:35.240 No, and nor will you.

00:15:36.760 But if you watch them, you will because they peaceful.

00:15:43.720 They never struck back.

00:15:47.000 In fact, several times in watching the video, you will hear leaders.

00:15:52.860 And I don't mean adult leaders.

00:15:54.300 I mean, kids who were taking a leadership position.

00:15:57.540 They're just a bunch of kids standing around waiting for a bus.

00:16:00.160 That's that's what's happening here.

00:16:01.780 Okay.

00:16:01.900 They didn't organize to all be a part of something.

00:16:05.400 They were already done with what they were doing.

00:16:08.480 So now here's a group of kids on their own waiting for the buses by the by the Lincoln Memorial.

00:16:13.460 And you will hear several times in the tape, kids saying to other kids, don't engage them.

00:16:20.420 Don't engage.

00:16:21.060 Don't engage.

00:16:21.820 Don't do it.

00:16:22.620 It's impressive.

00:16:23.300 It's really impressive.

00:16:25.800 This school.

00:16:26.980 First of all, the school condemned the kids without having knowledge.

00:16:30.600 And I understand the pressure of the school was under, et cetera, et cetera.

00:16:34.580 But you should have waited.

00:16:36.060 You should have waited and had more faith in your kids.

00:16:38.620 And I hope that you have a rally when you get back when they all get back to school today or tomorrow.

00:16:44.040 And you have a rally and you say to them, congratulations, you stood exactly the way Jesus Christ would have stood.

00:16:53.420 I don't know if Jesus Christ is smirking as much as that kid, but that's how I would have been in high school, too.

00:16:57.360 That kid was not smirking.

00:16:58.660 I think he kind of was, but I didn't know.

00:17:00.180 There's an absurdity of that moment when you're in it that would make me, I know in high school in particular, I would totally, the only thing I would be thinking about is the absurdity of what it looked like.

00:17:10.140 That's, I think, what he is smiling about.

00:17:12.840 If you watch the tape, you can see that moment and it's a fleeting moment, okay?

00:17:19.180 And it is truly had to be, if you watch it, everybody's had this.

00:17:24.400 You've had this smirk and it's not making fun.

00:17:27.900 And then it's just like, this is insane.

00:17:30.500 Yeah.

00:17:30.660 The situation I'm in the middle of is crazy.

00:17:33.260 Correct.

00:17:33.820 He's not making fun of this Native American at all.

00:17:37.460 He would have to say something.

00:17:38.460 You can't smile to make fun of someone.

00:17:40.720 You have to say something.

00:17:42.140 You have to express some level of derogatory thought and he never does that.

00:17:46.920 Okay.

00:17:47.100 So these kids, they're shouting about their school.

00:17:49.300 They're doing a chant about their school.

00:17:50.680 The Native Americans walk up and you can hear them taunting these white kids.

00:17:58.280 Okay.

00:17:58.620 But only the kids on the periphery may, and I say may, be aware because it's cacophony.

00:18:06.160 And so if you're following the cameras from the Native American point of view, you're hearing them talk about these kids and talk about how these white kids are bad, blah, blah, blah.

00:18:19.100 These just white kids.

00:18:20.160 But the kids are engaged in just doing school spirit stuff.

00:18:24.760 Okay.

00:18:25.160 And they're chanting about their school.

00:18:27.920 The Native Americans then walk up and the guy is doing the drum and he happens to be, he's not planning it.

00:18:36.620 And I'm sure it just happens to fall in beat with the kids chance.

00:18:43.400 So at first the kids are all thinking, this is cool.

00:18:47.260 This Native American guy is coming up and he's helping us with a chance and you can hear them.

00:18:54.180 Some of the kids say, yeah, some of the kids are like, this is so cool.

00:18:58.360 They think the Native American is a friend.

00:19:02.760 And that's because their chance essentially were to drown out the other, the third group, the black is the black Jews.

00:19:10.000 Yeah.

00:19:10.220 Yeah.

00:19:10.820 Hebrew Israelites or whatever.

00:19:12.240 They're saying things like, you know, gay slurs and all sorts of things.

00:19:15.720 They are, they are, they are unquestionably doing really bad things.

00:19:19.920 Yes.

00:19:20.300 And so that they decided to do this school spirit thing to drown that out.

00:19:24.520 And they thought initially this Native American was helping them because they were on the good side of things.

00:19:29.940 Right.

00:19:30.160 And they thought the drum, which it was, if you listen to it, it was keeping beat.

00:19:35.240 Now it just, I think it just happened to be that way.

00:19:40.220 I don't know, but it seemed if you were in the crowd that it was just doing the, that he was on their side.

00:19:47.240 The kids even say, this is so cool.

00:19:50.380 Then because of the taunts, you realize, oh, these guys aren't friends, but not everybody.

00:19:59.240 Because if you watch multiple cameras done by the kids, some of the kids get it much earlier.

00:20:06.540 Other kids all the way to the end are saying, what the hell is, what's going on?

00:20:11.560 What's happening?

00:20:12.920 Okay.

00:20:13.260 Nobody knows what's happening.

00:20:15.940 This kid, I think I haven't spoken to him, but I think he knows what's going on and he knows you're not going to, you're not going to do this, man.

00:20:25.460 We're not going to break, but it's so important that you hear one of the kids being yelled at by the Native Americans.

00:20:35.540 Uh, and can you give me, Sarah, can you ask Mike, which one it is where the kid, um, actually says, I've got so many cuts here where the kid says, um, don't, don't do it.

00:20:50.420 The drum is being beaten.

00:20:52.740 One of the kids is being taunted and he's being taunted.

00:20:56.220 And what the, what the Native American says is you white people, you're just being white.

00:21:03.600 The only way you know how to react is white.

00:21:06.160 And you think this is your land.

00:21:08.380 This isn't your land.

00:21:10.360 Get off our land, go back to Europe.

00:21:13.660 So one of the kids very reasonably, very calmly says, no, this isn't, this is everybody's land.

00:21:23.700 And the Native American says, we were here first.

00:21:27.040 You took our land.

00:21:28.700 And the kid says, so wait a minute, can we just go back in time?

00:21:32.220 Let's go back to Africa where all the continents were together and we were all one people and we've all traveled from there.

00:21:41.700 So were we stealing land then?

00:21:44.740 I mean, it's everybody's land.

00:21:46.820 That is when the guy who is standing in front of the Indian with a drum, that's the only time he breaks and he puts his hand up and looks at the kid and says, hey, stop it.

00:22:02.820 Stop it.

00:22:03.880 Meaning don't engage.

00:22:05.560 Don't you're, they're just trying to get you angry.

00:22:08.760 Don't when the kid continues to respond reasonably, that's when the kid who is sneering at the Native American turns around and says, come on, let's go and leaves.

00:22:22.760 That's exactly what Martin Luther King would do.

00:22:26.620 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

00:22:33.300 All right.

00:22:34.140 I'm really thrilled to tell you about our new partnership.

00:22:36.380 It's 23andMe.

00:22:38.700 We're embarking on a journey and I'd like you to embark on this journey together.

00:22:44.340 Instead of making a generic resolution, I'm making a genetic one with 23andMe.

00:22:52.020 My DNA kits are on the way and I'm going to take them with my kids, especially Rafe.

00:22:59.540 Rafe's adopted.

00:23:00.600 We don't know his ancestry.

00:23:03.620 He is, we know he's part Scottish, but that's all we know.

00:23:07.800 We don't even know about his health.

00:23:09.640 We don't know about his genetic makeup.

00:23:11.180 So with 23andMe, we can, and 23andMe has 125 personal insights for people like me and you who just want to eat right, do the right thing for your health, and it will help you do it.

00:23:26.360 Join me now on this journey, 23andMe.com, 23andMe.com slash Beck.

00:23:33.640 Graham Allen, if you don't know who he is, he's a part of the Blaze TV.

00:23:36.620 He had another incident like this this weekend.

00:23:38.380 You can hear him all the time, blazeTV.com slash Beck.

00:23:44.520 Oh man, this video, you have to watch the entire video.

00:23:49.120 I'll send it out.

00:23:49.920 I'll tweet it out.

00:23:50.580 You have to watch the entire video of what happened with these kids from Covington.

00:23:55.600 It is an outrageous lie.

00:23:58.140 And yes, I know, media, it's Martin Luther King Day.

00:24:01.260 And so you're going to take my words and twist them.

00:24:04.300 But I stand by my words, these kids from every indication that I have seen behaved exactly like Martin Luther King would want kids to behave.

00:24:16.920 They were kind in the face of people who were trying to get them to strike back.

00:24:24.080 Read the quote from the Native American guy who is a liar.

00:24:29.720 He is a liar.

00:24:31.800 And CNN should be ashamed and angry at him and angry at their producer before they ran to put him in a studio.

00:24:41.020 And I think CNN at least has reported accurately some of these things.

00:24:45.280 It was Washington Post, right, was the first kind of big story on this.

00:24:48.160 Yes, but CNN had the Native American guy in the chair doing an interview.

00:24:54.740 That means you had time to find him, book him, get him a car, get him to a studio, and put him in, and no one had the time to watch the video?

00:25:04.040 Oh, I don't think he was hard to find.

00:25:06.480 I think this is a media performance, right?

00:25:08.320 But this is what he says, I was getting ugly, and I was thinking, I've got to find myself an exit out of this situation and finish my song at the Lincoln Memorial.

00:25:15.300 I started going that way, and that guy in the hat stood in my way, and we were at an impasse.

00:25:20.040 He just blocked my way and wouldn't allow me to retreat.

00:25:25.880 So he was in front of you, but he wouldn't allow you to go backwards.

00:25:30.620 If you watch the video made by, I think it was the Native Americans, because it seems to be moving with their group, you can hear them target this group.

00:25:46.260 They are targeting these kids, and they are mocking these kids.

00:25:50.660 I'm not saying the guy with the drum was, because he was singing his song.

00:25:53.540 Everybody else with him were targeting and mocking these kids.

00:25:59.060 They definitely targeted them.

00:26:00.320 Yes.

00:26:00.660 They were the aggressors.

00:26:01.820 They went right to these kids.

00:26:04.700 The kids thought that they were supporting them, standing against the other guys who were just horrible.

00:26:12.200 They were taunting the kids and trying to get them to fight, and so they just started chanting.

00:26:18.540 Their school's pride stuff to drown those guys out because they were so horrible.

00:26:24.240 Listen to this.

00:26:25.360 Cut.

00:26:25.940 Let's go with cut seven.

00:26:28.100 Serious mockery.

00:26:29.860 Look how they mock it.

00:26:31.580 Serious mockery.

00:26:33.760 Make America great again, hat.

00:26:36.400 Serious mockery.

00:26:37.700 Look at that.

00:26:38.260 America will be destroyed by nuclear.

00:26:42.060 That's right.

00:26:44.060 Nuclear destruction.

00:26:45.100 America will be destroyed by nuclear destruction.

00:26:48.540 Mockery.

00:26:50.240 Jesus.

00:26:52.100 Mockery.

00:26:53.660 Okay.

00:26:56.080 They then go on to say, that's right, there's nothing, these guys are nothing but a bunch

00:27:02.420 of future school shooters.

00:27:04.700 Yeah, that's right.

00:27:05.700 That's your future.

00:27:07.080 That's what they're saying in the background.

00:27:09.140 Cut eight, please.

00:27:11.160 He said, this racist, what the hell is all this?

00:27:13.700 Right.

00:27:14.420 What the hell is you see if crackers would make America great?

00:27:18.100 Crackers.

00:27:19.260 Yeah, you's a cracker.

00:27:20.700 You's a cracker.

00:27:22.060 All of you crackers.

00:27:23.680 Y'all got one in the crowd, huh?

00:27:25.980 That's not racist.

00:27:26.880 One, huh?

00:27:27.800 That's not racist.

00:27:28.140 I got one crowd.

00:27:29.400 Oh, you got two in the crowd.

00:27:31.600 Oh, two in the crowd.

00:27:32.980 Two black people in the crowd.

00:27:34.340 Oh, you got two black people.

00:27:35.760 You're nothing but crackers.

00:27:37.300 So, you're not hearing the kids chant back because the kids actually move to surround

00:27:44.760 the African Americans in their group to protect them.

00:27:51.260 Okay?

00:27:51.480 So, what are they doing?

00:27:53.520 They just surround them to make sure nobody gets hurt.

00:27:57.540 Now, listen to this.

00:27:58.560 Cut nine.

00:27:59.600 I'm going to give y'all something.

00:28:00.520 Check this out.

00:28:01.340 Go on YouTube and look up Donald Trump kisses drag.

00:28:06.880 You're going to see your president kiss Rudy Giuliani dressed in a drag.

00:28:11.180 Who cares?

00:28:12.440 Your president is a homosexual.

00:28:15.060 Listen to this and we'll laugh.

00:28:22.120 Then they're like, who cares?

00:28:25.080 And you hear them start to hiss a bit.

00:28:28.320 They are defending the right to be homosexual.

00:28:32.420 They later go on in something that I'm not going to play because it's just too vile.

00:28:36.620 They go on to call homosexuals awful, awful names.

00:28:43.480 And the kids boo them and say, they're people.

00:28:50.000 They're people.

00:28:52.520 Wow.

00:28:53.600 Tell me that these kids are hateful.

00:28:57.440 Hateful of whom?

00:28:59.860 Hateful of whom?

00:29:01.440 They are being hated on because they are white.

00:29:04.580 That is the definition of being a racist.

00:29:07.820 They're being targeted because they're wearing MAGA hats.

00:29:11.420 That's a fact that you've glossed over this whole time, though.

00:29:15.360 MAGA hats are akin to murder.

00:29:18.480 If you're wearing a MAGA hat, you may have well, you may just as well have stabbed someone to death.

00:29:25.920 Because that's the kind of person you are.

00:29:28.100 They basically just applied their worst beliefs of what a MAGA hat represents.

00:29:33.240 And just said that it all happened.

00:29:34.720 I mean, they're all just like, yeah, that happened.

00:29:35.820 They started chanting these things.

00:29:37.420 I mean, think about just from everybody was on board with it just because they're wearing the MAGA hats.

00:29:41.460 Yeah.

00:29:41.960 And the media.

00:29:42.960 And obviously, your typical internet celebrities were terrible on this.

00:29:46.680 But it's like, forget even like the actual confrontation.

00:29:49.740 He's standing there.

00:29:50.840 This guy walks up to the MAGA hat guy.

00:29:53.300 There's no question about it.

00:29:54.520 You see it in every video.

00:29:55.300 Beating a drum in his face.

00:29:56.140 In his face is, I think, an important part of this, right?

00:29:58.420 If you're beating a drum and it's down by your waist, right?

00:30:01.160 Like, it's one thing.

00:30:02.500 To put the drum right in his face and keep hitting it over and over and over again.

00:30:06.260 He's absolutely the aggressor.

00:30:07.740 The whole time.

00:30:08.280 The whole time.

00:30:09.580 And the fact that the media just ran with his narrative.

00:30:12.080 And think about what he did.

00:30:12.880 He said the things that I was talking about where he's saying they were chanting, build the wall.

00:30:16.540 And they were saying all these terrible things.

00:30:18.540 They didn't say that.

00:30:19.420 It's not anywhere on video, as CNN now admits.

00:30:22.300 But in addition to that, he then goes to the media, runs to the media,

00:30:26.920 says he was thinking about his wife who just died of cancer during this moment.

00:30:31.580 And they just report it as if it's true without any evidence supporting it other than just his word.

00:30:39.220 Yeah.

00:30:39.520 And just assuming because he's on the right side of history, right?

00:30:42.460 He doesn't like Donald Trump, that you can just trust him and take him at his word.

00:30:46.200 That's not how the world works.

00:30:47.200 What was the original charge of mocking?

00:30:49.260 That the kid was standing there smiling at him?

00:30:52.260 Yeah.

00:30:53.100 He didn't hit him.

00:30:54.520 He didn't yell epitaphs at him.

00:30:56.420 No.

00:30:56.560 No.

00:30:57.100 In fact, he didn't do anything.

00:30:58.680 He was part of a group that was doing the opposite.

00:31:01.900 They were trying to defuse the situation.

00:31:05.220 By the way, have you seen Cuban Avenger on Twitter?

00:31:10.680 This is still out.

00:31:11.680 Where they have taken all of the faces of the kids that they could grab from the crowd.

00:31:16.220 And they have numbered them.

00:31:18.800 And they have said, if I may quote, reporter, special dark projects, desk, Gizmodo Media, Republic of Lies, conspiracy theories in America.

00:31:31.200 Here are the faces.

00:31:33.220 Who are these children?

00:31:35.640 So they're asking.

00:31:37.580 They're asking people.

00:31:38.640 If you have a here's one.

00:31:40.100 If you have a school yearbook for Covington Catholic High School.

00:31:43.980 My email is this.

00:31:46.540 Then then you also have Congressman John Yarmuth.

00:31:52.040 I don't even know who he is.

00:31:54.100 Who is he?

00:31:55.680 Congressman John Yarmuth.

00:31:57.220 I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of teenagers wearing MAGA hats until we figure out what's going on.

00:32:07.500 Because the MAGA hat this I'm quoting.

00:32:10.120 The MAGA hat seems to be poisoning young minds.

00:32:13.460 That is just crazy stuff.

00:32:15.120 Can you imagine if these were the Parkland kids and somebody on the right had treated David Hogg and Emily Gonzalez in a similar way?

00:32:23.040 Oh, my God.

00:32:24.400 It's unthinkable what they'd be going through right now.

00:32:27.220 Unthinkable.

00:32:27.780 And these guys and and and they already did that to the Parkland shooter kids.

00:32:35.260 They already defended them when people were saying no, Lynn, not just some people.

00:32:40.260 Oh, I don't know.

00:32:40.820 Maybe a senator like Marco Rubio, who was saying no.

00:32:45.200 And the kid got up, sneered in his face and said, you're just on the dole of the NRA.

00:32:53.640 Who got defended there?

00:32:55.600 Not the senator.

00:32:56.720 The kid.

00:32:57.460 The kid did.

00:32:58.760 Absolutely.

00:32:59.580 It's amazing, too, that the media doesn't get angry at the BS coming their way.

00:33:08.080 This makes them look bad, right?

00:33:09.420 If anyone looks at the facts of this, it makes them look bad.

00:33:13.100 And yes, the person's coming from your side of this issue, essentially, trying to beat up on Donald Trump supporters.

00:33:19.280 But like, don't you get angry when someone comes and you report this and then you look horrible?

00:33:24.040 Instead, they just dig in and defend their ground.

00:33:26.720 I know I do.

00:33:27.260 We've had incidents with prominent conservatives over the years.

00:33:29.880 Yep.

00:33:30.320 In which they...

00:33:31.920 I still get hammered.

00:33:33.380 Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:33:33.720 I still get hammered.

00:33:35.380 Where conservatives have tried to get a narrative out there that we thought they were credible.

00:33:40.780 And we started reporting on their stuff.

00:33:42.900 It didn't turn out to be right.

00:33:44.160 And it caused a decade-long rift between certain people.

00:33:48.680 And to the point of like, it's still a major issue.

00:33:51.360 And it's like, these things, when someone burns you on your own side, you should be furious at them.

00:33:59.640 They should be doing...

00:34:00.540 They should be out there absolutely wrecking these protesters that were on their side.

00:34:05.520 Not to mention the particular guy who went and blatantly lied to them.

00:34:12.020 Even if you want to say the media has the best intentions in the world.

00:34:15.820 And the best reading you can have from this is they got a report from a guy and they just went with it.

00:34:19.620 Which is terrible.

00:34:20.240 That's not journalism.

00:34:21.520 But if that happens, and you know now that this isn't true, how are you not pissed off at this guy?

00:34:26.020 He's made you look like fools.

00:34:27.740 Because of postmodernism.

00:34:29.180 They don't care.

00:34:29.880 They don't care.

00:34:31.180 So let me just go on with Congressman John Yarmuth.

00:34:35.020 Because this guy should be held accountable.

00:34:37.660 The conduct we saw in this video is beyond appalling.

00:34:40.720 You didn't watch the video, Congressman.

00:34:42.320 You clearly didn't.

00:34:43.760 But it didn't happen in a vacuum.

00:34:45.020 This is a direct result of the racist hatred displayed daily by the President of the United States.

00:34:50.880 You're wrong on both accounts.

00:34:53.280 You are supporting the wrong person.

00:34:55.160 But then his conclusion is we should ban the MAGA hat from cheerleaders.

00:35:00.760 Well, let me, or from teenagers.

00:35:03.080 Let me just quote something here, Congressman.

00:35:05.540 The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution nor prohibited to it by the states are reserved to the states, respectively, or to the people.

00:35:17.440 I am today calling for a complete shutdown of politicians who are trying to circumvent the Constitution of the United States of America.

00:35:28.220 And I am damn serious.

00:35:30.060 I am sick and tired of hearing these, quote, representatives who swear an oath not to uphold my opinion, their opinion, their party's opinion, anybody else's opinion.

00:35:44.380 They swear an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the Constitution of the United States of America.

00:35:51.560 And then you go on half cocked and not watching a video in a responsible position.

00:35:59.160 And you say you want to ban hats until we figure it out.

00:36:03.840 I say we ban Congress until we find out what the hell is happening.

00:36:10.900 Amen.

00:36:11.580 Amen to that.

00:36:13.540 That's very good.

00:36:14.680 Seriously.

00:36:16.400 But isn't this a clear indication why we must do so much homework?

00:36:22.140 We have to do a hundred times the research that they do because it doesn't matter when they get things wrong.

00:36:29.180 But it could end careers when we get things wrong.

00:36:31.700 So I wrote today to the guy who's, you know, head of the Blaze and said,

00:36:37.600 the Blaze should be focused on setting the narrative straight.

00:36:43.940 There are a couple of people who have made it their weekend to set the narrative straight.

00:36:50.000 But you need the video and you need it in a consumable way.

00:36:54.620 You have to have the video that shows the things that I saw.

00:36:58.960 I watched about 45 minutes.

00:37:01.220 I didn't even watch the full two hours.

00:37:02.960 I got a life.

00:37:04.140 I watched 45 minutes of it.

00:37:06.400 You watch just 45 minutes and it's a completely different story.

00:37:11.180 So where are the highlights?

00:37:13.120 We will have the highlights for you.

00:37:15.320 Not just, hey, watch it this time.

00:37:17.180 Watch it this time.

00:37:17.960 Watch it this time.

00:37:18.840 Here it is.

00:37:20.320 And we'll give you the full unedited video in case, well, that's just an edit.

00:37:25.480 Yeah.

00:37:25.900 Well, it's not out of context.

00:37:27.720 And if these mainstream journalists aren't doing that, what are they doing?

00:37:30.720 What are they doing?

00:37:31.420 What are they doing?

00:37:32.240 And what they're doing is advocacy.

00:37:33.800 Yes.

00:37:34.200 Right?

00:37:34.400 That's the problem.

00:37:35.320 This is supposed to be their role.

00:37:36.580 A guy comes to you and says, hey, I was harassed.

00:37:39.340 And they were yelling things at me.

00:37:41.180 And all the claims that this guy said, it's the journalist's job not to write that story then.

00:37:46.860 You go and you watch all the videos and then you say, wait a minute.

00:37:50.260 These five things he said aren't true.

00:37:52.620 That's your job.

00:37:53.860 But here's one more thing.

00:37:54.920 Good news.

00:37:55.740 Facebook is going to solve all of this.

00:37:57.660 Facebook has decided the next battlefield now is to empower you.

00:38:04.300 Today, Facebook will encounter a slew of fresh complexities with the launch of Community Actions, its newest news feed position.

00:38:13.800 It is a petition feature.

00:38:17.480 Community Actions will unite neighbors to request changes from their local and national elected officials and government agencies.

00:38:24.960 Oh, so Facebook is organizing community activists so they can shout and funnel their rage at leaders.

00:38:35.980 Oh, OK.

00:38:36.880 That's I can see.

00:38:37.940 No, that's going to make things much better.

00:38:39.560 Facebook.

00:38:40.600 Thank you.

00:38:42.460 Our sponsor this half hour is simply safe.

00:38:44.580 By the way, thank you, Pat, who drops in every day at this time.

00:38:47.240 He is part of his podcast.

00:38:49.040 Pat Gray Unleashed.

00:38:50.480 You can listen to it live every morning before this broadcast on the Blaze Radio and TV network.

00:38:55.800 Or you can find his podcast wherever podcasts are found.

00:38:59.380 Simply safe.

00:39:00.220 Simply safe.

00:39:01.360 Only 36, 36 percent of proper of property that has been stolen is even reported to police.

00:39:12.420 How's that possible?

00:39:13.960 I feel like I would want to report all of those things.

00:39:15.940 I know only 18 percent are actually prosecuted.

00:39:20.040 That's frightening.

00:39:21.260 That's frightening.

00:39:22.180 OK, you got to make sure nobody's stealing your stuff.

00:39:25.000 And if somebody does come into your house, you want the photos.

00:39:28.080 And I don't mean a blurry like, you know, 7-Eleven cam photo.

00:39:31.180 I mean, a high resolution photo where you can actually see their face.

00:39:34.960 You could get it from Simply Safe.

00:39:36.480 Go to simply safe.

00:39:37.660 Beck dot com right now.

00:39:39.060 Save 10 percent on your system.

00:39:40.660 It's simply safe.

00:39:42.380 Beck dot com.

00:39:46.220 What a bad day for the media.

00:39:48.220 Good thing the Glenn Beck program is here to point it all out.

00:39:51.900 We have that and so much more for you coming up in just a second.

00:39:58.160 We didn't even point out that Graham Allen was in trouble this weekend as well for something

00:40:04.400 completely ridiculous.

00:40:08.380 This is why people wear MAGA hats.

00:40:11.440 And if you don't understand that, Brian Stelter, I will explain it to you.

00:40:17.740 And I'll try not to talk slowly or talk down to you, but I think that may be the only way

00:40:26.180 you understand things.

00:40:29.240 Our sponsor is American Financing.

00:40:31.840 It is.

00:40:32.840 It is.

00:40:33.800 American Financing.

00:40:35.080 Look, I've dealt with American Financing personally when I was going purchasing my home

00:40:39.640 and they walked me through this entire process.

00:40:42.100 They made it easy.

00:40:42.920 They explained all the crazy terms to me.

00:40:45.440 They did all the stuff that they had to do.

00:40:47.040 And you know what they did it for?

00:40:48.200 Nothing.

00:40:48.980 Because they wound up saying, you know what?

00:40:50.920 There's a certain kind of deal that you want.

00:40:52.500 We don't think it's a great way to go.

00:40:54.260 But in fact, it would be the kind of deal that I would say, don't, don't, don't.

00:40:57.620 Whatever you do.

00:40:58.280 If you're going to do a deal, don't do this kind of deal.

00:41:01.360 That's what he was looking for.

00:41:02.800 And they said, you know what?

00:41:03.560 If you can find it from another place, go take it.

00:41:05.480 Go take it.

00:41:05.920 I don't listen to Glenn.

00:41:06.880 Just so you.

00:41:07.660 Everyone's right.

00:41:08.360 I live my life differently.

00:41:10.120 But I mean, American Financing, they didn't care.

00:41:12.000 They wanted me to get the right thing for me.

00:41:15.340 And that's why they're great.

00:41:16.540 Go to AmericanFinancing.net.

00:41:18.560 AmericanFinancing.net or 866-750-6551.

00:41:22.980 They're great.

00:41:24.180 AmericanFinancing.net.

00:41:25.240 If you're going to buy a home, this is the place to go.

00:41:26.960 Do it.

00:41:29.400 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:41:32.880 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:34.660 I am so proud of the Covington School kids.

00:41:43.420 And I know they're getting a lot of heat.

00:41:46.360 It's undeserved.

00:41:48.200 And this is one member of the media who actually watched the video.

00:41:54.160 And if they would have misbehaved, the Trump hat isn't like, you know, some like kryptonite.

00:42:01.580 It's not going to stop me from seeing or acting on the truth.

00:42:06.900 I want to know what the truth is.

00:42:09.100 And when I saw the media reports, I was outraged.

00:42:13.260 I am proud to say those kids acted like Jesus.

00:42:19.480 Those kids, the video that I saw, 45 minutes of it, I thought they were, they were, did honor to their community, honor to their school.

00:42:32.780 And on Martin Luther King Day, they did honor to Martin Luther King.

00:42:37.880 I begin there in one minute.

00:42:40.320 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:42:45.720 All right.

00:42:45.960 Let me tell you a little bit about realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:42:51.600 They can help you sell your home for top dollar as quickly as possible.

00:42:58.320 And it's an amazing experience.

00:43:02.220 We get emails from people, I mean, stacks of emails on my desk from people who said, Glenn, I gave it a whirl.

00:43:13.000 I tried and I can't believe it's more than what you said.

00:43:17.420 I can't tell you the number of people who said this was such a hard experience for us for this reason or that reason.

00:43:24.280 This real estate agent understood us, took the time, we prayed together, we laughed together.

00:43:30.060 Some people are remaining friends with their real estate agent.

00:43:33.940 I don't know about you, but I can't get away from real estate agents fast enough in the past.

00:43:38.700 It's because you haven't met the right ones.

00:43:41.400 You haven't met the ones that actually care about the customer.

00:43:45.340 That's the secret of realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:43:48.500 They know your area.

00:43:50.280 They know what your house should be sold for, which is key.

00:43:52.660 They know how to sell and market your home to get out fast and to get top dollar.

00:43:58.340 They know how to help you find your next home.

00:44:00.780 They care.

00:44:02.120 We've put together over a thousand agents nationwide who are listeners of the show and just like you.

00:44:08.760 You want to deal with somebody who's just going to get it done and you're going to enjoy the experience?

00:44:13.700 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:44:15.980 That's realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:44:22.660 So Stu keeps telling me when we get off the air.

00:44:32.640 Yeah, you know, it's Martin Luther King Day today.

00:44:35.340 Yeah.

00:44:35.740 You know that the press is going to just twist what you say.

00:44:41.280 And no, I don't think they care anymore.

00:44:43.860 I really don't.

00:44:45.100 I think they like the idea of these kids who've been vilified by the country as essentially white supremacists with no evidence.

00:44:53.480 No evidence whatsoever.

00:44:54.860 The idea that you're going to say that they had similar characteristics in some ways to Martin Luther King is on Martin Luther King Day.

00:45:02.540 Well, I don't even think the press even knows who Martin Luther King is anymore.

00:45:06.320 I mean, he's not radical enough for people now.

00:45:08.620 Martin Luther King is being distanced from all of the, you know, the big civil rights groups now.

00:45:14.940 Only when it's convenient for them do they use it.

00:45:18.100 Martin Luther King wouldn't be a part of Antifa.

00:45:20.440 No way.

00:45:20.920 No.

00:45:21.060 Martin Luther King wouldn't be a part of really, he wouldn't be a part of the women's march.

00:45:26.440 Maybe at the beginning he would have been, okay, let's, let's, you know, gather together.

00:45:31.540 It seemed like a peaceful march, but he probably would have done his homework and saw who was involved and went, ah, no, they seem to be racists.

00:45:40.120 And I don't think we want to stand with racists.

00:45:43.060 He wouldn't be standing with them now.

00:45:44.880 Would he be at the March for Life?

00:45:46.380 We don't know, but I know Alveda King says that he actually was pro-life, right?

00:45:50.180 I mean, didn't, isn't that?

00:45:51.140 Yeah, he was also, dare I say it, oh, dare I say it, on Martin Luther King Day?

00:45:54.440 Yes, I dare.

00:45:55.200 Uh-oh.

00:45:55.640 Also pro-gun.

00:45:56.840 Oh, my gosh.

00:45:57.500 Yeah, yeah.

00:45:58.320 You know what?

00:45:58.980 You know what's crazy?

00:46:00.800 Because gun laws for African Americans and Native Americans.

00:46:04.660 Common sense gun control laws.

00:46:06.300 Common sense gun control laws.

00:46:07.940 They were always, they were always in effect in the South.

00:46:11.560 Yeah.

00:46:11.840 For African Americans.

00:46:13.140 Yeah, common sense.

00:46:13.620 We don't want African Americans to have guns.

00:46:15.360 Of course not.

00:46:15.740 Of course not.

00:46:16.480 You know why?

00:46:17.180 You know why?

00:46:17.600 This is why they told Martin Luther King you couldn't have a gun.

00:46:19.680 Because he went in and he said, hey, I need to get a permit to carry a gun.

00:46:23.260 And they said, no, no, no.

00:46:24.740 That'll make it more dangerous for you.

00:46:26.540 For you.

00:46:26.980 We're doing it for you.

00:46:27.720 We're doing it for you.

00:46:28.700 Just like they're protecting us with their gun control measures of today.

00:46:32.160 We can't understand how to handle these big, black, metal, scary things that we hold

00:46:36.660 and make loud booms.

00:46:37.620 We can't do that ourselves.

00:46:38.820 We're doing this for your own good.

00:46:41.360 You can't carry a gun, Mr. King.

00:46:44.480 So, you know, he's not exactly the guy that everybody portrays him.

00:46:47.720 And he wasn't a saint either.

00:46:48.940 I mean, he was a normal guy.

00:46:51.120 None of our heroes of the past are perfect.

00:46:55.080 He wasn't a saint.

00:46:57.200 Towards the end, he was hanging around a lot of communists.

00:47:01.320 You know, whether that's where he would have ended up or not, I don't know.

00:47:05.420 But here's why we know him.

00:47:08.260 Not because we're like, you know, I support Martin Luther King because he was for philandering.

00:47:15.980 No, we like him because of his idea that you peacefully protest.

00:47:23.140 Oh, I like Martin Luther King because he was a communist.

00:47:27.180 No, no.

00:47:28.520 We like Martin Luther King and he has a day because he taught America how to protest peacefully.

00:47:36.140 And that's exactly what happened this weekend.

00:47:38.760 But maybe we should look back and have a refresher on Martin Luther King.

00:47:45.020 We will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men,

00:48:04.280 Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual,

00:48:13.320 free at last, free at last.

00:48:16.040 Thank God Almighty, we are free at last.

00:48:18.600 Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice.

00:48:28.760 Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.

00:48:40.180 Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.

00:48:45.240 And I've seen the promised land.

00:48:52.700 I may not get there with you, but I want you to know the night that we as a people will get to the promised land.

00:49:06.840 Dr. Martin Luther King has been shot and wounded, possibly critically wounded in Memphis, Tennessee this evening.

00:49:13.000 Dr. Martin Luther King, the apostle of nonviolence in the civil rights movement, has been shot to death in Memphis, Tennessee.

00:49:20.460 ...all points bulletin for a well-dressed young white man seen running from the scene.

00:49:26.500 For centuries, man's freedom has been crushed, contained, or at best discouraged, and sometimes in subtle ways.

00:49:37.760 In the days of Solomon, he decried that man could learn too much, that one shouldn't dig too deeply nor read too often,

00:49:47.640 saying that too much reading led to the weariness of the flesh,

00:49:52.020 that the search for knowledge is where Adam and Eve went wrong,

00:49:56.220 thus proving that learning leads to man's downfall or his sin.

00:50:00.880 St. Paul, centuries later, said basically the same thing.

00:50:07.880 In 1500, Francis Bacon wrote to the king trying to convince him that man could never learn too much,

00:50:14.780 that knowledge could not somehow also contain the serpent.

00:50:18.840 Yet free thought continued to be squashed.

00:50:21.800 Immanuel Kant, the man who first described the Milky Way as a collection of suns in the fashion that we now know it,

00:50:30.460 wrote in 1760,

00:50:32.620 There are many things that I believe that I shall never say,

00:50:36.200 but I shall never say the things that I do not believe.

00:50:41.320 The Courage to Speak One's Mind

00:50:44.020 In 1760, our most precious freedom, the freedom of thought, had not yet been born.

00:50:53.900 Yet, just a few years later, on the other side of the globe,

00:50:58.380 sat a man alone in a hotel room,

00:51:01.340 his wife dying in bed hundreds of miles away from him.

00:51:04.720 As he scratched words on paper,

00:51:07.160 I'm not sure if we really understand the impact of those words.

00:51:37.160 Man has never been as free to think as man is now.

00:51:42.420 The Chinese dissidents didn't make a Statue of Liberty in Tiananmen Square out of happenstance.

00:51:48.680 Americans changed the world.

00:51:51.760 Our freedom of thought allowed men to discover electricity,

00:51:55.160 the light bulb, the car, the phone, the motion picture, the radio, the television, the computer,

00:52:00.300 to put a man on the moon.

00:52:01.620 Which of these men will be first to orbit the Earth?

00:52:05.380 I cannot tell you.

00:52:06.460 And a spacecraft on Mars.

00:52:08.380 Touchdown confirmed.

00:52:09.360 We're safe on Mars.

00:52:11.120 It was in the American century that the theory of relativity was conceived,

00:52:16.160 leading Einstein to say,

00:52:17.880 The thing that strikes me about America is the joyous, positive attitude to life.

00:52:24.840 The smile on the faces of the people is one of the greatest assets of the American.

00:52:29.720 He's friendly, self-confident, optimistic, and without envy.

00:52:34.580 The American lives more for his goals, for the future.

00:52:40.040 Life for him is always becoming, never being.

00:52:45.280 His emphasis is laid on the we and never the I.

00:52:50.400 So today, as we are free to celebrate, relax, think, read, say anything,

00:52:59.460 ask yourself this.

00:53:01.280 Are we still more about the goals for the future?

00:53:04.440 Is life for us always about becoming and never being?

00:53:10.220 And are we still part of the we and not the I?

00:53:14.380 You know, when Jefferson first wrote those words,

00:53:19.300 they were words of treason and certain execution.

00:53:22.800 But today, they are free to echo throughout the land

00:53:27.260 as words of the American spirit and our hope

00:53:30.580 that we do hold these truths to be self-evident,

00:53:34.980 that all men are created equal

00:53:37.540 and endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights,

00:53:41.780 and among them life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

00:53:45.860 And in support of this declaration,

00:53:49.580 with firm reliance on the protection of divine providence,

00:53:54.300 we mutually pledge to each other

00:53:56.640 our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.

00:54:02.820 Our founders changed the world with those few words.

00:54:07.200 And over 200 years later,

00:54:10.300 a black preacher from the South,

00:54:13.440 Dr. Martin Luther King,

00:54:15.380 helped make sure that the promise of liberty

00:54:17.920 was real for all Americans.

00:54:22.380 Free at last.

00:54:23.620 Free at last.

00:54:24.980 Free at last.

00:54:26.340 Free at last.

00:54:27.740 Thank God Almighty.

00:54:29.060 Thank God Almighty.

00:54:31.260 We are free at last.

00:54:33.160 We are free at last.

00:54:37.200 All office chairs are not the same.

00:54:44.540 Back to the program in less than a minute.

00:54:48.180 You know, the crappy chairs that come from Staples,

00:54:50.880 you know, they're crappy chairs that come from Staples,

00:54:53.460 and you're paying, you know,

00:54:54.780 for a crappy chair that comes from Staples,

00:54:56.360 and everybody is sitting and going,

00:54:58.060 this is a crappy chair,

00:54:59.200 probably comes from Staples.

00:55:00.980 Get a great chair from X chair.

00:55:05.040 Now, you can say,

00:55:08.140 well, the X chair has all this whiz-bang technology,

00:55:11.480 and it's like crazy with all the adjustments.

00:55:14.660 Yeah, you can get the X chair with all of that,

00:55:16.980 and I think this may be part of the flying car

00:55:20.160 that we were promised.

00:55:21.000 I'm not sure.

00:55:22.020 But you can also get the X basic.

00:55:31.740 with more and more people working at home

00:55:33.660 and having home offices and, you know,

00:55:35.460 sitting in that chair all day,

00:55:36.900 X chair basically is perfect for that.

00:55:38.500 It has the dynamic variable lumbar support.

00:55:40.960 I am uncomfortable in most chairs because of my back.

00:56:21.340 10 seconds, Station ID.

00:56:27.360 I am trying to find that quote from Albert Einstein.

00:56:39.180 It used to be easy to find.

00:56:40.740 All I keep finding now is I do Einstein on America being optimist,

00:56:47.140 optimistic on Americans being happy.

00:56:49.940 I can't find it.

00:56:51.460 Hmm.

00:56:51.620 I mean, you wrote that piece, what, how many years ago now?

00:56:54.900 Yeah.

00:56:54.980 20?

00:56:55.700 Yeah.

00:56:56.140 And now I'm trying to find it again.

00:56:58.320 And no, I just keep finding, you know, Einstein on America being racist.

00:57:06.620 Maybe it was in that essay where he was, where he was denouncing racism.

00:57:13.180 Because he did say, you know, look, I'm a Jew.

00:57:15.620 And so I can, I can understand how, you know, African-Americans feel.

00:57:24.200 Because I went through it before.

00:57:27.160 I mean, look, every single, this is another interesting example of something you mentioned

00:57:31.140 at the beginning of the hour, which is even Einstein had his issues, right?

00:57:33.900 Like, and there's some quotes from Einstein, they're not so great when it comes around

00:57:39.260 sort of the, you know, early World War II era.

00:57:43.040 That one wasn't bad.

00:57:44.240 What he just said there wasn't bad.

00:57:45.820 I didn't say that was bad.

00:57:46.700 I said there are some, though, that are, you know, you kind of wish, and eventually he

00:57:50.760 came around to some of the correct opinions here.

00:57:52.980 But every single person that you, I used to do a segment on Wonderful World of Stu called

00:57:56.740 Ruining Your Heroes.

00:57:57.940 Yeah.

00:57:58.200 And it was just my favorite thing of just taking these really beloved figures and finding all

00:58:01.820 the terrible things about them and just ruining them for people.

00:58:04.240 I don't know why I take pleasure in such a thing.

00:58:06.380 Right.

00:58:06.620 However, it is, you can do it with almost anybody.

00:58:09.200 And that was kind of the point, is you can find things that are true and negative and

00:58:14.960 bad about every single one of these figures, maybe one big exception, where, you know, there

00:58:22.140 is a idea, you used to say this a lot, which is we turn these people into statues and why

00:58:30.380 that's a bad thing.

00:58:31.640 You know, the Abraham Lincoln Memorial, it's beautiful and it's great.

00:58:34.960 And you can certainly understand how important he was, but it almost makes you forget he was

00:58:38.820 a man.

00:58:39.720 It almost makes you forget he was a human being that had flaws and screwed up sometimes

00:58:43.960 and misunderstood things at key moments in his life and was not always right.

00:58:48.040 Did things at times that were not the right path.

00:58:52.380 But overall, we can still put that into perspective.

00:58:55.040 And it's the same thing with all of the founding fathers, where they did things and you can question

00:58:59.480 them and not understand.

00:59:00.800 When you memorialize a person, this is why I get so uncomfortable around these like state

00:59:05.340 funerals and things.

00:59:06.500 When you put people, when you have that around them, it takes away the actual humanity.

00:59:11.500 It almost convinces you that you can't do something like that.

00:59:14.960 You can't do what Abraham Lincoln did.

00:59:16.340 You can't stand like that because he was this giant statue of a man.

00:59:19.840 Well, in reality, he was just a man.

00:59:21.800 He was a mess.

00:59:24.460 He was a mess.

00:59:25.620 Can somebody go upstairs into the vault on the second floor and get the picture off the

00:59:30.720 wall of Abraham Lincoln looking like Kramer from Seinfeld?

00:59:36.280 Get that picture and bring it down.

00:59:38.140 This guy was a mess.

00:59:39.660 He was a mess.

00:59:41.040 But he he somehow or another weathered it.

00:59:44.420 Can you imagine the guy who is fighting a war, a civil war, losing every battle all the

00:59:53.240 way up to half point?

00:59:54.620 OK, losing every single battle.

00:59:58.260 His cabinet is against him.

01:00:00.720 Everybody's against him.

01:00:01.880 Half the country loathes him.

01:00:04.160 The other half not so great on him.

01:00:06.680 He's got a wife with serious depression.

01:00:10.160 He loses a son.

01:00:12.000 All of this is happening in the White House.

01:00:14.940 His wife is called crazy.

01:00:17.880 The home life is a disaster.

01:00:19.300 Home life is disaster.

01:00:21.320 Can you imagine the press today how they would treat Abraham Lincoln?

01:00:24.540 You imagine you imagine what they would say about his wife, what they I mean, they already

01:00:30.400 were saying this about his wife, but they were I mean, this this press would tear Lincoln

01:00:38.420 apart.

01:00:39.080 He was a Republican.

01:00:40.380 I'm sure they'd be fair to him.

01:00:42.460 I'm sure they don't even point out that he's a Republican anymore.

01:00:45.040 No, you know, because of all the good.

01:00:46.520 But his good so overwhelmed the bad that they can't even admit he was a Republican or they

01:00:51.640 just say, well, the Republican Party has changed.

01:00:53.800 Now they're racists.

01:00:54.960 I did this fascinating interview.

01:00:56.340 It's going to be a podcast in a couple of weeks with Brad Meltzer.

01:01:00.460 And you saw that one while we were taping.

01:01:03.940 Yeah, it's it's a great one.

01:01:05.860 We just talk about history.

01:01:06.820 Well, we get into George Washington and I asked him a serious question.

01:01:10.100 Besides Jesus, I can't find any other character that is as spotless as George Washington.

01:01:20.940 I mean, yes, he had slaves.

01:01:22.920 It's a pretty big.

01:01:23.980 It's a pretty big spot.

01:01:24.960 And he obviously understood this at some level.

01:01:28.560 And there was.

01:01:28.960 Yeah, no, he did.

01:01:29.780 He you know, his his slaves.

01:01:33.800 I'm trying to remember, but I think when Martha died, she freed the slaves.

01:01:40.100 I think I can't remember how it happened, but he didn't read.

01:01:43.900 He didn't free them on his death.

01:01:46.000 And the story goes that they didn't want to leave.

01:01:51.180 They didn't want to be broken up because he wasn't like a mean slave.

01:01:54.620 Yes, they were slaves.

01:01:56.160 And there is a difference.

01:01:58.060 But his slaves talked about him differently than other slave owners did.

01:02:01.720 Yeah.

01:02:01.940 No, he's not.

01:02:02.800 He's not the, you know, Simon was Simon Legree.

01:02:07.320 He wasn't that kind of a slave owner still owned slaves.

01:02:10.820 But for at the time was a great one and couldn't release them, could not release them legally, legally.

01:02:18.720 That wasn't the way the law worked at that time in Virginia.

01:02:21.380 And, you know, we talk about this a lot of, you know, sometimes we compare abortion to slavery.

01:02:25.440 And the reason I think it's an apt comparison is not because they're both really bad, because they are really bad.

01:02:31.340 We can compare that to a million things.

01:02:32.840 But the fact that society approves it gives people the out to understand how horrific it is at the time.

01:02:40.200 It's almost an excuse for people of how they acted that way.

01:02:43.440 At that time, it was accepted by society and people didn't really, the average person was not thinking whether this was right or wrong.

01:02:51.440 And I think a lot of that's happening today with abortion.

01:02:53.560 Yeah.

01:02:53.760 Most people don't think things through like that.

01:02:56.440 Society accepts it.

01:02:57.640 What?

01:02:58.360 It's a problem.

01:02:59.220 Oh, you're a crackpot.

01:03:03.360 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:03:06.400 Okay.

01:03:07.860 Tika Tuari still says that all signs still point for a massive bull year for cryptocurrencies.

01:03:13.800 I don't, I don't know, but I'm not an expert in this field.

01:03:19.140 However, I have taken his course and I was just, where was I was at an economic summit in Bermuda a couple of months ago.

01:03:30.120 And I listened to these speeches from people who are all into tech and, and Tika was one of the speakers.

01:03:35.880 And I thought, I got, I can't pick these things apart.

01:03:39.760 I just, I don't know why this isn't happening yet because every sign indicates good stuff.

01:03:47.480 I don't know what you do.

01:03:48.860 I'm not an invest, an investment advisor.

01:03:51.700 I will tell you this.

01:03:52.620 The first thing you have to do is educate yourself, do your own homework, learn all you can about cryptocurrency and blockchain at smart crypto course.com.

01:04:02.740 Take this, it was designed for you, smart crypto course.com.

01:04:06.860 Graham Allen on the blaze TV was involved in a little bit of a controversy with the second amendment.

01:04:11.040 You can watch his show.

01:04:11.960 He's going to be on this one as well.

01:04:13.080 Blaze TV.com slash Beck.

01:04:18.780 Welcome back to the program.

01:04:20.440 I want to, for, for those of you who are watching, we were just talking about Abraham Lincoln and I sent some guys up to the vault to get this,

01:04:28.280 this, this a really rare and controversial photograph of Abraham Lincoln.

01:04:34.360 Um, and I think that it looks Abraham look Lincoln looks like Kramer on Seinfeld.

01:04:42.500 That's not why it's controversial, but doesn't he, it totally does.

01:04:46.340 Yeah.

01:04:46.860 And you do have a picture of it side by side by any chance you get to grab a picture of,

01:04:50.440 uh, Seinfeld, I mean, Kramer and, uh, grab this picture of Abraham Lincoln.

01:04:54.620 This, this, this picture was taken on July 4th, 1856.

01:05:01.300 Any idea why that is an important date?

01:05:08.100 Uh, I, I don't, I don't know.

01:05:11.060 They grabbed him just before he walked up onto the podium for the Lincoln Douglas debates.

01:05:19.800 Oh, wow.

01:05:20.700 This is the Abraham Lincoln that gave that debate.

01:05:24.620 And he won.

01:05:26.320 I mean, looking like this, he won a little different than the, uh, the classic photos you'd think of when you think of Abraham Lincoln.

01:05:34.200 Yeah.

01:05:34.340 And then that's, that one's not going on the $5 bill.

01:05:37.140 No, that's not good.

01:05:38.240 That's not even going on a $3 bill.

01:05:39.840 No, no.

01:05:40.100 It's just a bad looking picture of Abraham Lincoln.

01:05:42.020 You know, Abraham Lincoln was, um, uh, was in a bad mood.

01:05:48.820 If you ever see him with his hair combed, any picture where his hair is in place, it's because he was pissed off.

01:05:59.100 Really?

01:05:59.660 Yes.

01:06:00.100 Yeah.

01:06:00.240 His, his, his way of taking out his anger was on his hair.

01:06:02.920 No.

01:06:03.860 Um, he would sit for a photo and they would say, um, Mr. Uh, Mr. President, we'd just like to comb your hair.

01:06:11.320 Mr. Lincoln, could we just comb your hair?

01:06:12.980 And he'd say, no, no, I like it this way.

01:06:16.160 And they would say, no, Mr. Lincoln, we really need you to comb your hair.

01:06:20.300 No, I like it this way.

01:06:22.060 Mr. Lincoln, please.

01:06:23.720 Okay, go ahead and comb it.

01:06:25.200 And as they'd finish and they'd get right to the camera, ready to take the shot, he'd run his hands through his hair and mess it up again and do it right.

01:06:32.680 And he's like, go ahead, take the picture now.

01:06:35.020 And they would all laugh and they would take the picture.

01:06:36.840 A few times they, they were like, no, Mr. President.

01:06:41.420 And he was pissed.

01:06:43.640 He did not like pictures making him look all fancy.

01:06:49.320 Fancy in his term was with my hair combed because he never combed his hair.

01:06:54.920 That's not what he looked like.

01:06:56.820 He looked like more like this.

01:06:59.060 He looked like, uh, he was disheveled all the time.

01:07:03.820 Here's the side by side.

01:07:05.220 Look at that.

01:07:05.700 That is a Kramer haircut.

01:07:07.820 That is the original Kramer.

01:07:10.320 Look at that.

01:07:10.760 The nose is even the same.

01:07:13.120 Wouldn't it be cool if Abraham Lincoln walked into rooms like Kramer?

01:07:16.420 Just kind of slid into rooms.

01:07:17.900 All right.

01:07:18.960 I say we free the slaves.

01:07:20.280 What do you think?

01:07:20.960 Oh my gosh.

01:07:21.640 Someone should remake, uh, in Seinfeld style elements of the, the Lincoln presidency.

01:07:28.460 That would be incredible.

01:07:30.040 Would like Lincoln pop it in.

01:07:31.420 Somebody who had a movie studio.

01:07:32.680 I would love that.

01:07:36.620 That would be great.

01:07:37.500 Like, uh, uh, you know, the wife could be Elaine coming in.

01:07:42.540 Imagine the characters that you could have in that.

01:07:44.480 And he would be like, we should free the slaves.

01:07:46.740 And like Elaine used to always do.

01:07:48.400 She'd come up to him, push him.

01:07:49.780 Yeah.

01:07:50.440 Stop it.

01:07:52.020 That's a great idea.

01:07:53.340 This is, this is Hamilton too.

01:07:58.820 The money's there.

01:08:00.140 People want to see.

01:08:01.080 It is.

01:08:01.540 No song.

01:08:02.740 You just do Kramer is Lincoln and you get the old cast back from Seinfeld.

01:08:09.040 Oh my gosh.

01:08:09.520 This is brilliant.

01:08:10.740 Lin-Manuel Miranda should be coming in and doing this.

01:08:13.680 That is really good.

01:08:14.680 Okay.

01:08:14.800 I don't know what that history would look like, but that is a, that's a billion dollar

01:08:17.920 musical for you right there.

01:08:19.000 That is fantastic.

01:08:20.420 What happened to Kramer?

01:08:21.520 Did anybody know?

01:08:22.420 I mean, I know he went off on like a racist rant at one point.

01:08:25.460 There was an issue at a comedy club.

01:08:27.560 Yes.

01:08:27.720 Right.

01:08:28.020 He was, it was, I mean, I think about that.

01:08:29.440 That was a bad one.

01:08:30.160 One of the earliest sort of YouTube moments that affected somebody's career that I can

01:08:34.800 think of.

01:08:35.580 Yeah.

01:08:35.700 He went in.

01:08:36.200 I mean, it was a, it was a very bad moment as he's admitted many times since what he

01:08:40.180 was being taunted by someone in the crowd who happened to be African American and

01:08:44.260 he was looking for a way to get under his skin and decided to use words you do not

01:08:47.140 use in that fashion.

01:08:49.820 He is, I would say he's made it.

01:08:52.060 He's actually recovered from that at some point with a gigantic assist to Jerry Seinfeld

01:08:56.980 who has so much credibility with everybody.

01:09:00.240 And he kept going on the air and saying, look, you know, he's put him on as big appearances.

01:09:04.000 He's put him back in shows that he's done.

01:09:06.100 Yeah.

01:09:06.340 He was on a curb your enthusiasm a few times.

01:09:08.440 He's, he's come back at some level from that.

01:09:11.680 But funny.

01:09:12.300 He is funny.

01:09:12.760 We're watching Seinfeld with the kids now, you know, we've, we finished watching Cosby.

01:09:18.660 And so they, they have their, their fill of a pedophile.

01:09:22.200 And now you're going into the racists.

01:09:23.620 Yeah.

01:09:23.740 Now we're going into the racists.

01:09:24.720 No.

01:09:25.020 So we're watching Seinfeld and it's, it's a lot funnier.

01:09:31.680 I mean, I've always thought it was funny.

01:09:32.840 It's a lot funnier than I remember.

01:09:36.800 They're absolutely dislikable.

01:09:38.880 I mean, you, you got that the first time around, but they really are all so shallow and dislikable,

01:09:46.080 which is the first time a sitcom was like that.

01:09:49.860 There was no sitcoms before that had the entire cast, except for the crazy neighbor, unlikable.

01:09:56.620 Right.

01:09:56.700 Kramer is likable in a crazy sort of way.

01:10:00.720 In a crazy way.

01:10:01.000 He's the guy who was always like, no, that's not right.

01:10:04.260 You know?

01:10:04.820 Yeah.

01:10:05.120 He's also, you know, insane.

01:10:06.400 Yeah.

01:10:06.540 He's insane.

01:10:07.220 But yeah, you're right.

01:10:08.820 I saw an episode though.

01:10:10.380 Do you remember the, the Indian cigar episode?

01:10:15.180 Yeah.

01:10:15.780 Go back and watch that now.

01:10:19.500 It's un-frickin-believer.

01:10:21.780 Well, do you remember we did this a couple of weeks ago?

01:10:24.880 There's a new list of the 10 Seinfeld episodes that are no longer the worst moments.

01:10:30.160 Oh, I must not have been here.

01:10:31.100 I mean, maybe, maybe that was when Pat was here.

01:10:32.920 Yeah.

01:10:33.100 And it was, I can't remember what the other controversy was.

01:10:35.460 There was another like old TV show controversy and we went over this list and these moments,

01:10:40.960 you know, there's a lot of them in that show that couldn't be made today.

01:10:44.580 I mean, even, even going back to more recent history of The Office, Steve Carell said in

01:10:48.960 an interview, you couldn't make that show today.

01:10:51.360 There was an article out, there was an article out yesterday or today about how stand-up

01:10:56.260 comedy is dead.

01:10:57.680 And I'm like, no, it's, it's really not.

01:10:59.260 It's not dead.

01:10:59.920 It's just dead for this generation.

01:11:01.560 No, I mean, because you can't, because nobody can take a joke.

01:11:04.300 It will with, with, what was it?

01:11:07.140 With terror and slaughter return.

01:11:09.060 Yeah.

01:11:09.360 The gods of the copy book headings are coming back.

01:11:11.340 And so stand-up comedy will come back.

01:11:13.400 It's just going to be after a nasty episode here.

01:11:16.160 It's interesting.

01:11:16.680 You say that I was, uh, the Louis CK thing recently has, has had me thinking about this

01:11:20.540 a lot because he had this, uh, apparently terrible, uh, moment where he, uh, was, you

01:11:25.700 know, bashing the Parkland victims.

01:11:27.420 And he was saying that, uh, you know, uh, the, he was saying that it's almost like they're

01:11:32.260 trying to be treated as royalty.

01:11:33.500 These people who were demanding, you call them what they say they want to be called.

01:11:37.020 And he was just kind of mocking cultural culture and everyone was bashing him for it.

01:11:40.840 Um, and I, I happened to hear Jim Norton, who's a, you know, great comedian and like

01:11:45.280 a, you know, first amendment hero, uh, you know, who's always speaking out for the first

01:11:49.440 amendment.

01:11:50.100 And he, uh, he talked about this and his, his take was it's never going to change.

01:11:55.940 It is never going back.

01:11:58.000 It's never going to go back to a time where people actually took the joke.

01:12:02.440 It's never going to go back to a time where people weren't offended over every single thing.

01:12:06.160 His take was never, and that's depressing because I will, there's a part of me that

01:12:10.880 was optimistic about the idea of social media and all these things in that when we were one

01:12:15.280 of the first sort of targets in this world, right?

01:12:17.740 Like this show would get targeted by, you know, stupid groups like media matters and

01:12:22.060 every, and this show used to be funny, believe it or not, the show used to be funny.

01:12:26.060 I mean, that was our main goal was to be funny every day.

01:12:29.680 Then our main goal was just stay on the air.

01:12:32.880 Well, whether the weather, the storm, um, and we got so attacked from all sides over

01:12:39.680 and over and over again, uh, it was really hard for a long period of time to still say

01:12:45.220 what I believe.

01:12:46.320 Yeah.

01:12:46.800 I mean, you still did it.

01:12:47.840 Um, and we had problems from it, right?

01:12:49.480 Constantly.

01:12:49.940 And my take at the time was this was new to people like these, uh, company, right?

01:12:53.980 Used to get 10 complaint letters a year.

01:12:57.040 Right.

01:12:58.020 And then all of a sudden they get a hundred emails in a day about the same thing.

01:13:01.760 And in their minds, it would turn into, oh my gosh, everyone's, this is worse than we've

01:13:07.080 ever seen before.

01:13:08.000 We have to bail from the sponsor or we have to, uh, you know, uh, we have to, you know,

01:13:14.120 stop advertising on that show or whatever the change was.

01:13:16.580 We have to make a statement to show that we are not on the side of these hateful things,

01:13:19.840 whatever they were, I'm not going to check.

01:13:21.620 And, uh, I, my initial thought on that was people would eventually realize that these are

01:13:28.360 mailing lists, right?

01:13:29.520 This is before social media, really, it was more like the mailing lists and emails.

01:13:32.560 And I was like, these are mailing lists.

01:13:33.720 This is just like, it's a dumb activism group.

01:13:35.720 That's just, it's, they're, they're fraudulently showing outrage to try to get you to hurt their

01:13:41.180 enemy politically.

01:13:42.460 And I thought eventually companies would be like, oh, I mean, we've seen this a thousand

01:13:46.200 times.

01:13:46.560 This is idiotic.

01:13:47.340 I'm not getting involved in this.

01:13:48.240 You know what?

01:13:48.640 We don't, we don't back anybody's show that we advertise on.

01:13:52.480 It's not what we do here.

01:13:53.500 We make pancakes or whatever it is.

01:13:55.460 Right.

01:13:56.260 And really it's, it's been the opposite.

01:13:58.300 It's just now everyone folds over everything.

01:14:00.120 The second, and this happens on the left and right.

01:14:02.240 And people just, as soon as there's a complaint about something, look at the school yesterday

01:14:05.220 with a MAGA hat kid.

01:14:06.680 The school that knows these particular children, their immediate reaction was, we denounce everything

01:14:14.520 they've ever done in their lives.

01:14:16.300 And of course, now they're having to back off of this because the video clearly shows

01:14:20.720 that there was no evidence to the claims that they were bad kids.

01:14:23.800 Let me say, let me say, because, cause it's just, it's, it's like, it's like lemon juice

01:14:27.620 and an open wound on a leftist.

01:14:29.920 No, Stu, they acted like Martin Luther King.

01:14:33.080 Yeah.

01:14:33.600 They stood there and they did not yell at them.

01:14:38.420 They did not fire back.

01:14:39.320 They stood there silently and they did, they protested in a restrained way by every, all

01:14:46.240 the video evidence we have right now.

01:14:47.860 They weren't even protesting.

01:14:49.200 They were standing there.

01:14:50.100 They were standing, waiting for the bus.

01:14:52.060 Exactly.

01:14:52.520 They were targeted by two professional groups of protesters.

01:14:56.860 Yeah.

01:14:57.140 They were targeted.

01:14:58.120 Those guys on both of those groups, the, the, what is it?

01:15:02.400 African-American Jews or whatever it is.

01:15:05.080 And the native American protest group, they've never had this much publicity before.

01:15:10.960 They've never had this, but they were targeted.

01:15:13.180 That group was targeted to do exactly because they knew what the press would do.

01:15:17.800 And they milked it for everything.

01:15:18.940 And it was worth lied to the press, said things that happened.

01:15:21.760 And the press doesn't care that they were lied to.

01:15:23.840 They don't seem to be pissed off about it at all.

01:15:25.620 No.

01:15:25.720 And that's the thing, like I have over this time and going through this firsthand, we've

01:15:30.140 dealt with this, you know, for now 15, 20 years.

01:15:32.680 And it's like, you get the sense that maybe it is never going to change.

01:15:36.120 Maybe we're at this point where we just won't joke anymore.

01:15:38.100 With terror and slaughter, the gods of the copybook headings will return.

01:15:42.800 Read that poem again.

01:15:44.080 It's going to happen.

01:15:45.440 It's just going to be horrible to get back to it.

01:15:48.980 Let me just finish with telling you the story.

01:15:51.060 In fact, I've, would you write this down?

01:15:52.760 I'm going to the prop storehouse today or the prop storeroom that I have.

01:15:59.720 And I am picking up the cigar store Indian that I have in storage.

01:16:07.500 And I'm going to put it right there, right behind me.

01:16:12.000 So every day it's sitting there anyway, the so this this episode is so telling and shows

01:16:21.900 where we are and shows the right thing.

01:16:25.320 America was laughing at this, but America was laughing at it because it tells the truth

01:16:30.480 about America.

01:16:31.280 America, he picks up, remember, he's offended Elaine, I think.

01:16:37.920 And so he's standing, he's trying to get her.

01:16:40.040 He wants to get her something.

01:16:40.900 And he's standing in the cigar store and he's like, oh, that's great.

01:16:44.740 That's so kitschy.

01:16:45.680 That's cool because it's so kitschy.

01:16:47.580 He's like, I got to get that.

01:16:48.980 How much is that?

01:16:49.840 And it was like twelve hundred dollars, which is not no way you could buy one now for that.

01:16:54.160 Um, and, uh, it's twelve hundred dollars or something like that, seven hundred dollars.

01:16:58.020 And he picks it up, he wraps it up and he goes to Ellen's house.

01:17:01.020 They're playing a card game or something.

01:17:03.780 They're doing something as women.

01:17:05.380 One of the women is a Native American.

01:17:08.440 And, uh, Seinfeld walks in and he's like, hello, Judy, or whatever her name is.

01:17:15.280 And there's obviously some chemistry between the two and which you couldn't do now, God forbid.

01:17:21.560 Uh, and, uh, he says, Ellen, I got you something.

01:17:25.160 I, I, I've got, I've got you some look.

01:17:27.020 And he starts to pull it off and, uh, pull off the cloth off of the cigar store Indian.

01:17:33.760 And she's like, no, Jerry, don't.

01:17:35.420 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

01:17:36.740 And he's like, what?

01:17:37.320 This is kitschy.

01:17:38.000 This is fun.

01:17:38.780 Look at this.

01:17:39.340 This is great.

01:17:40.700 He's doing it because it's kitschy and it's fun.

01:17:42.580 And it is, it is.

01:17:44.020 It's a part of history.

01:17:46.000 And, uh, so he, he pulls it off and he's doing it as a joke for her.

01:17:50.760 Okay.

01:17:51.560 And it's immediately turned into a racist thing.

01:17:54.680 The, the native American gets up and he tries to apologize and says, I'm sorry.

01:17:59.840 I didn't, I didn't know.

01:18:01.240 And if that was offensive, I'm really sorry.

01:18:03.280 And then he says, you know, they get back together and he gives, she gives her something,

01:18:09.540 gives him something, the native American, and it's the Indian giver thing.

01:18:14.040 And then at the end there's dating and he's like, Hey, let's just, uh, I made, I made,

01:18:19.700 I made an appointment at a great restaurant.

01:18:23.280 So it shows how he's trying and taking it so far.

01:18:29.660 Um, uh, what's her name?

01:18:32.420 I want to say Ellen, but it's not Elaine.

01:18:33.740 Elaine.

01:18:34.240 Elaine then says, uh, to Kramer, get this out of here.

01:18:38.520 I don't want this.

01:18:39.320 He's like, Oh, this is great.

01:18:40.700 This is kitschy.

01:18:41.840 This is great.

01:18:42.800 So he puts it in a cab as he's trying to find, uh, a restaurant that the two of them can

01:18:50.180 go to Jerry is, he says to a guy who's got his back to him, Hey, do you know where a Chinese

01:18:55.580 restaurant is?

01:18:56.600 Postman Chinese.

01:18:57.920 Why?

01:18:58.160 You think all Chinese people?

01:18:59.560 No.

01:19:00.480 Kramer drives by in the car going, look, Jerry.

01:19:05.360 None of it was racist.

01:19:07.220 None of it was racist, but it shows exactly the world we live in now.

01:19:12.560 Where everything is interpreted protected the future for the worst.

01:19:16.220 Yeah, did.

01:19:17.340 All right.

01:20:17.980 Join me now 23andme.com slash back.

01:20:21.620 So Graham Allen, really good dude.

01:20:25.860 He's a former military guy and he's gone, become a bit of an internet sensation over

01:20:29.860 the past couple of years with his rants, just kind of about common sense.

01:20:32.760 Uh, he's going to join us.

01:20:33.940 He went through a little bit of a controversy this weekend where he posted a photo of his

01:20:37.660 children holding firearms.

01:20:40.900 That's right.

01:20:41.900 He apparently believes in the second amendment.

01:20:43.800 Who can believe it?

01:20:44.480 Uh, and he got the, the, the rated by social media as well.

01:20:48.740 He's on blaze tv.com slash back.

01:20:50.360 You can see his rents there.

01:20:51.200 Plus you're going to hear from him coming up next.

01:20:54.580 I want to talk to you a little bit about, uh, uh, real estate agents.

01:20:59.080 I trust, uh, real estate agents.

01:21:01.000 I trust.com is a place for you to go.

01:21:03.080 If you're trying to sell your house, you want to sell your house, you want to sell it on

01:21:05.880 time and for the most amount of money.

01:21:07.800 These are real estate agents that know your area.

01:21:10.960 Uh, and they know how much your house is worth and they're going to help you get the most

01:21:16.820 money for it and in, in an honorable and, uh, and, and decent way.

01:21:22.060 Sort of the reverse of a lot of these real estate referral services, which are basically

01:21:26.000 just ways for real estate agents to get clients.

01:21:28.600 This is kind of the reverse it's set up because you set it up.

01:21:31.160 It's set up in a way to help the listeners of this show, uh, connect with people who are

01:21:35.860 actually sharing their values and principles in the way they want to do business.

01:21:39.900 Uh, and to hopefully support that whole thing where you can actually find a good agent instead

01:21:44.420 of just picking one off of a bench commercial.

01:21:46.440 Yeah.

01:21:46.580 I want to, I want to do business with people who want to do business with me.

01:21:50.700 Yeah.

01:21:51.220 Um, and so these are the people that are listeners of the show.

01:21:53.980 They, they act like you, they talk like you.

01:21:56.180 They, they are so much like you.

01:21:58.160 Real estate agents.

01:21:59.180 I trust.com.

01:22:00.180 The difference between you is they have the expertise to sell your home.

01:22:04.240 Real estate agents.

01:22:05.540 I trust.com.

01:22:06.740 Go there now.

01:22:07.260 Ben Shapiro, a friend of mine and a Jew was basically accused of defending Hitler over

01:22:26.780 the weekend and he lost sponsors because of it.

01:22:30.700 This is crazy.

01:22:32.260 Another friend of mine, uh, Graham Allen, he posts a picture of his kids and him with guns

01:22:41.940 firing range.

01:22:44.180 Oh my gosh.

01:22:45.160 He is the worst human being on the planet.

01:22:48.480 We share both those stories and Graham joins us in one minute.

01:22:52.860 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:22:57.960 All right.

01:22:58.920 Uh, let me first tell you about 23 and me.

01:23:01.960 Are you going to join me on this?

01:23:03.140 Stu?

01:23:03.600 This would be cool.

01:23:04.160 Yeah.

01:23:04.460 Yeah.

01:23:04.720 I mean, like I like to, yeah.

01:23:06.060 So, um, do, uh, you just go and get your DNA kit from 23 and me and they, you know,

01:23:10.920 swab the face.

01:23:11.820 I haven't done it yet.

01:23:12.540 I'm waiting for my kit to come in.

01:23:13.760 Okay.

01:23:13.940 Um, and I'm going to do it with my, with my son.

01:23:17.520 I want to do it with my wife as well, because I would like to see the, what is it?

01:23:22.220 130 different things that she has to do for her health.

01:23:26.840 Um, she's because you can taunt her like she's taunting you with the celery juice.

01:23:30.760 Yes.

01:23:31.620 I have to do, have we made any progress with the medium, the, the medium, what was it?

01:23:36.400 The weight medium or the weight medium?

01:23:40.100 I don't know.

01:23:40.500 The fat person medium.

01:23:41.820 No, the medical medium.

01:23:43.220 The medical medium.

01:23:43.880 Right.

01:23:44.140 That's a book that's out and she read it and got it from a friend.

01:23:47.700 She's raving about it.

01:23:48.900 I want to see if this guy has any credibility at all because, because of him, I'm drinking

01:23:53.760 celery juice every day.

01:24:00.140 I said to my wife today, I have to drink 16 ounces.

01:24:02.880 First thing I get up in the morning, she goes, she was like, and I'm like, oh my gosh,

01:24:06.920 it's five 30.

01:24:08.340 And so 16 ounces got to have 16 ounces.

01:24:11.200 I said, what is this supposed to do for me?

01:24:13.400 I'm going to put a cover page on your 23andMe report that just says your genetic makeup

01:24:18.000 says you must drink celery juice five times a day.

01:24:21.500 I am hoping that I am somehow or another deeply affected in a negative way by celery juice.

01:24:27.280 Anyway, 23andMe, get your DNA test from there.

01:24:32.500 They're going to give you 29, 129 different things about your health, your lifestyle, and

01:24:38.500 what will help you live a healthier life.

01:24:41.200 Plus, you find out about your ancestors.

01:24:44.240 And here is this, the best part for me.

01:24:45.700 They will connect you with people that have no idea you're related to each other.

01:24:53.680 Oh, I don't know.

01:24:54.900 Do I do that on April Fool's?

01:24:56.180 Do I do that on Halloween?

01:24:57.680 What day do I call people strangers and say, I'm your relative?

01:25:02.920 Oh, I can't wait.

01:25:03.760 So anyway, 23andMe.com slash Beck.

01:25:06.380 Go there right now and join me this year.

01:25:09.080 Let's do this together.

01:25:10.940 23andMe.com slash Beck.

01:25:14.040 Okay, so Graham Allen, who has got his own show here on Blaze TV.

01:25:29.720 It's called Rant Nation.

01:25:31.580 He's a former military guy, and he poses with his kids with guns.

01:25:38.720 Oh, my gosh.

01:25:39.840 You would think that he had set the world on fire and poked the eyes out of babies.

01:25:46.600 He got a lot of heat for it this weekend.

01:25:49.280 Graham joins us now.

01:25:50.180 Hello, Graham.

01:25:51.840 Hey, Glenn.

01:25:52.680 What's going on, guys?

01:25:53.840 So now in this picture with you and the kids, were you in the poppy field and you were all

01:25:59.480 trying to go to sleep or where were you exactly?

01:26:03.860 Well, we were in a cotton field that is literally across the street.

01:26:09.840 from my house here in rural Mississippi.

01:26:12.320 I had no idea you were so racist.

01:26:14.680 You live across the street from a cotton field?

01:26:18.940 Yeah, I do.

01:26:20.160 And I'm so racist that people obviously don't understand cotton that I miraculously made cotton

01:26:26.220 grow three days ago in the middle of winter.

01:26:29.400 Anyone that knows anything about cotton knows that that picture was obviously taken months ago.

01:26:36.360 Right.

01:26:37.260 So why the controversy here?

01:26:42.320 The guns, the cotton, the children, both?

01:26:45.300 You're all white.

01:26:46.280 I think the sky is blue.

01:26:48.460 What was the problem?

01:26:49.660 I think it was a perfect storm.

01:26:50.700 I think it was a perfect storm.

01:26:51.720 So it was in response to the Gillette ad.

01:26:54.780 And the left and the right can go back and forth forever on this.

01:26:59.080 It was highly praised by the left.

01:27:01.040 It was highly criticized by the right.

01:27:02.720 I think it's got more dislikes on YouTube than it has likes.

01:27:07.120 And so the left praised it because it speaks for anti-bullying, anti-sexual predator, etc.

01:27:12.940 But the right saw it for what it really was.

01:27:16.300 And what that ad really was, it was this undertone of, it's basically saying that men, current

01:27:23.600 generation men, are this problem within our society.

01:27:27.580 And it was aimed towards younger males saying that you basically need to grow up different

01:27:33.280 to save our world from the current generation of men.

01:27:37.440 So I thought, what better way to do it than to post with something that I have a very

01:27:43.640 strong feeling.

01:27:44.540 I don't know this for certain, but I have a very strong feeling that the people that made

01:27:47.980 the Gillette ad are probably not pro-gun kind of people.

01:27:52.440 And so I posted the photo and I said, hey, Gillette, does this offend you?

01:27:57.360 If I could go back and change one thing, I would have added just one word and I would

01:28:03.240 have said, does this also offend you?

01:28:05.840 Because the biggest thing was, people were like, what in the world does guns have to

01:28:10.340 do with the Gillette ad?

01:28:11.540 Well, technically, nothing.

01:28:13.940 You know, guns didn't have anything, you know, directly to do with the Gillette ad, except

01:28:18.200 that gun-loving, Second Amendment-supporting, gun-law-abiding citizens are frowned upon this

01:28:26.600 day and age by the left as, you know, as the problem.

01:28:29.880 And so that was the, you know, that was the whole reason why I literally just selected,

01:28:34.280 that was one of our family photos.

01:28:36.000 Like, that was part of a whole group of photos that we took months ago, me and my family.

01:28:42.380 Holy cow.

01:28:42.920 And so that's it.

01:28:43.900 You know, people give me a lot more credit for being this racist bigot than I think I

01:28:48.020 deserve because they were like, the racist undertones in the time it took to construct

01:28:52.280 such a subliminal photo, you know, it's staggering.

01:28:56.920 It's amazing how groupthink works.

01:29:02.380 They will, people will do this, people have done this for years and Stu and I always joke

01:29:06.880 about it.

01:29:07.560 They'll come up and they'll say, oh, I was listening to what you were saying in that

01:29:11.520 monologue and I hear what you were saying.

01:29:14.200 And you'd be like, oh, thank you very much.

01:29:16.320 No, I get it.

01:29:17.960 Okay, thanks.

01:29:19.100 I mean, I hear what you're saying.

01:29:20.900 What am I, what is it that I'm saying?

01:29:23.280 Yeah.

01:29:23.720 And they will come up with some elaborate thing that, you know, that's what you were really

01:29:28.580 saying.

01:29:29.140 And usually we're by that point so afraid of that person.

01:29:32.020 We just go, right?

01:29:33.680 Yeah.

01:29:34.500 Okay.

01:29:35.480 But let's keep that to ourselves.

01:29:37.260 Now go away.

01:29:38.740 We shouldn't be seen with each other ever again.

01:29:42.440 Well, that, that Glenn, and then the other big comment that I saw was, and I wanted to

01:29:49.360 address this just really quick.

01:29:50.680 You know, I do teach my children how to handle and respect firearms because I believe that

01:29:57.520 teaching children at a younger age to understand firearms, you remove the mystique around firearms,

01:30:04.800 you get them comfortable to where they respect it.

01:30:07.760 But one of the big things was, why is my little girl in the photo not having, why does she

01:30:13.100 not have a weapon?

01:30:14.940 Am I a sexist?

01:30:16.220 You know, is my, is my little girl not allowed to have.

01:30:19.040 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, let me look at the, put the picture back up because I think

01:30:23.240 I'm right.

01:30:24.280 She's, is she the youngest?

01:30:27.100 Yes.

01:30:27.580 She's the youngest.

01:30:28.060 She's four in this photo.

01:30:29.680 Right.

01:30:30.140 I wouldn't let a four-year-old grab the gun either.

01:30:33.180 How old is your son?

01:30:34.800 How old is his son?

01:30:36.000 Five?

01:30:37.020 Seven and eight.

01:30:37.980 Seven and eight are my two boys.

01:30:40.260 Oh my God.

01:30:40.700 And so, and so the purpose of the photo, one, to just add the reality of it is I only had

01:30:45.960 three guns in the truck when we drove across the street.

01:30:50.600 So, so, and then the, you know, the purpose of the photo was kind of that, you know, that

01:30:55.640 stereotypical Southern, you know, men protecting, you know, you know, the women that they cherish

01:31:00.520 in their, you know, in their life and stuff, but also my little girl, we don't let her

01:31:05.860 just handle rifles yet because she's just not there.

01:31:08.620 She's just not there yet.

01:31:09.920 As far as being truly comfortable with the rifle, by the way, none of those weapons were

01:31:14.400 loaded.

01:31:15.240 Obviously, you know, my kids just don't walk around with rifles, you know, they're all

01:31:19.320 locked up all the time.

01:31:20.660 Graham, Graham, Graham, you're on the Glenn Beck show.

01:31:23.140 Not, not like Stephen Colbert.

01:31:24.740 You don't have to say that.

01:31:25.720 I mean, we know that.

01:31:27.500 We know that.

01:31:28.600 You're right.

01:31:28.860 But anyway, so, so that's the reality of it.

01:31:31.360 My little girl didn't have a rifle because she was four at the time that that picture

01:31:35.720 was taken.

01:31:37.000 That is incredible.

01:31:38.100 Graham, it's, it's interesting to watch this because, you know, you're tied to the

01:31:40.940 Gillette thing.

01:31:41.360 I think makes a lot of sense to me because I mean, masculine, toxic masculinity, they

01:31:44.660 would talk about firearm usage as an example of that, right?

01:31:48.520 Yes.

01:31:48.780 I mean, it really does tie in in a roundabout sort of way, especially Southerners with guns.

01:31:53.860 Yeah.

01:31:54.120 Right.

01:31:54.380 Right.

01:31:54.980 Yeah.

01:31:55.260 It's interesting though, because I grew up in Connecticut.

01:31:57.620 It was not a gun culture at all.

01:31:59.960 And I think there's a lot of people around the country who look at kids handling guns

01:32:04.020 and think only the worst, right?

01:32:05.900 Like the only thing, the only experience they would ever have with a kid holding a gun is

01:32:10.360 a terrible story in the news where, you know, a parent didn't have their gun put away properly

01:32:15.340 and it was loaded and the kid got a handle of it.

01:32:17.800 And that's the terrible news at 11 moment for them.

01:32:20.320 I mean, the gap in understanding gun culture is so wide.

01:32:24.600 How do you, how do you, how do you feel it?

01:32:28.120 Well, I mean, I think that the Southern culture in general is doing a good job.

01:32:33.220 I mean, I can only speak for, people can only truly speak for their own, you know, upbringings

01:32:39.320 and their own personal influences and events in their life.

01:32:43.720 The entire culture of people that I associate with, my family, my children, gun culture

01:32:50.700 is just this way of life.

01:32:52.640 We go hunting literally just about every day during hunting season.

01:32:56.440 And it's not for trophy or sport.

01:32:58.060 It's to teach our children, you know, hey, we shot this deer because this deer provides

01:33:03.700 food for our family.

01:33:05.480 That is the reason that we go out and do this.

01:33:07.660 Hey, a gun is for hunting or self-defense purposes.

01:33:11.520 It's not to go out and showboat and everything like that.

01:33:14.800 I think the Southern culture does a good job.

01:33:17.400 We're just, we're just demonized for it.

01:33:20.220 So here's the thing, you know, who's not demonized that could very easily be demonized.

01:33:24.800 And I tweeted this about you earlier today.

01:33:28.520 Hey, New Yorkers, you let your, you let your 13 year old get onto a subway by themselves to

01:33:34.660 go to school.

01:33:35.660 Yes, many do.

01:33:37.060 Do you just drop your, your, your seven or eight year old off on the corner, even though

01:33:42.840 your school is like, you know, 50 feet away.

01:33:47.140 Are you kidding me?

01:33:48.320 There's a lot of people who live in the center of the country that would go, wait, wait,

01:33:52.720 wait.

01:33:53.080 You let your 13 year old on the subway of New York.

01:33:56.520 Are you crazy?

01:33:57.780 Oh yeah.

01:33:58.340 No, it's not crazy.

01:34:00.000 Yeah.

01:34:00.840 Nobody would do that.

01:34:01.840 Right.

01:34:02.120 But if you live in New York and you've raised your kids to be New Yorkers, it's not crazy.

01:34:09.140 It's not, it's very easy to avoid bad things in New York.

01:34:14.120 If you know where you are, you have your wits around you.

01:34:17.380 The easiest way to be victimized in New York, walk around with a map.

01:34:21.300 You walk around with a tourist map.

01:34:24.520 You are a target, a 13 year old kid who knows exactly what they're doing on the subway, knows

01:34:30.600 exactly what they're doing on the streets.

01:34:32.640 That is not the victim.

01:34:34.600 The tourist is the victim.

01:34:37.560 Yeah, exactly.

01:34:39.260 And, and I would think that the biggest, to me, the biggest issues that we have now and

01:34:44.360 why gun culture and why the Gillette ad was so controversial is I think that we have, it's

01:34:50.680 not a, it's not a gun problem.

01:34:52.800 It's not a, we don't really have this, this, you know, there's not the vast majority of

01:34:57.620 men walking around raping and pillaging through villages, you know, that people like to, like

01:35:03.280 to portray that's going on.

01:35:05.180 The vast majority, 99% of men are anti-bullying, we're anti-inequality, we're anti-sexual harassment

01:35:14.840 or assault.

01:35:16.040 You know, who are you really talking to?

01:35:18.380 And I think, I think that's what the vast majority of conservatives and the vast majority

01:35:24.040 of real men took offense to that ad.

01:35:27.680 Nobody is against being kind to people.

01:35:31.080 Nobody is against that.

01:35:32.000 We're against this, this undertone that people are creating that men are a problem in society.

01:35:40.160 And I think, I think that's why we all got upset.

01:35:42.900 So, Graham, you, by the way, you can catch Graham on Blaze TV.

01:35:47.180 It's Rant Nation.

01:35:49.460 Graham Allen, you can follow him again, blazetv.com slash Beck.

01:36:03.220 Do it now at the, just go to blazetv.com slash Beck and see him.

01:36:10.260 Graham, I think this all can be summarized with this.

01:36:13.200 You said Gillette wanted to make a commercial that said, you guys, men, you got to grow up

01:36:19.020 to be different than blah, blah, blah.

01:36:21.660 I think the message that men will accept is boys, you need to grow up because men are different than boys.

01:36:33.500 All the things that everybody is excusing is boy behavior, not, not a behavior of a man.

01:36:41.060 And men understand that.

01:36:44.280 Thanks, Graham.

01:36:45.320 I appreciate it.

01:36:46.100 You're never more than 60 seconds away from more programming, just under 60 seconds away from hearing from Ben Shapiro.

01:38:10.440 Beck.com.

01:38:13.660 I almost forgot to.

01:38:25.640 I'm a little disturbed here reading this article about Graham Allen.

01:38:28.620 The last line said, Graham Allen did not return Yahoo Lifestyle's request for comment.

01:38:33.720 Shut up.

01:38:34.720 I mean, if you're not going to respond to Yahoo Lifestyle, I don't want to have any dealings

01:38:38.380 with you whatsoever.

01:38:39.300 Oh, my God.

01:38:39.540 If Yahoo Lifestyle asks, you answer, Graham.

01:38:42.200 Oh, my gosh.

01:38:43.000 Oh, my gosh.

01:38:44.240 And I hope Ben Shapiro knows this, too, because Yahoo Lifestyle may have reached out for comment

01:38:47.160 from him, too.

01:38:47.940 Can we play the Ben Shapiro audio?

01:38:49.700 This is what this is what got Ben Shapiro basically called an anti-Semite.

01:38:56.080 He's Jewish, by the way.

01:38:57.260 Shapiro.

01:38:58.080 Listen.

01:38:58.620 Finally, argument number 10.

01:39:00.500 This one has become popular in recent years after the book Freakonomics came out.

01:39:04.200 That argument is that abortion lowers the crime rate, right?

01:39:07.180 That all the that what has lowered the crime rate traditionally has been killing all the would-be

01:39:11.200 criminals.

01:39:12.020 First of all, I don't know who's comfortable with the pre-crime version of humanity, where

01:39:18.040 we get to decide before you're born whether you're likely to be a criminal and then abort

01:39:21.160 you based on future criminal activity in which you have not participated, right?

01:39:25.500 The argument, I guess, here is that would you kill baby Hitler?

01:39:29.920 And the truth is that no pro-life person on Earth would kill baby Hitler, right?

01:39:33.160 Because baby Hitler wasn't Hitler.

01:39:34.480 Adult Hitler was Hitler.

01:39:35.620 Baby Hitler was a baby, right?

01:39:37.180 What you presumably want to do with baby Hitler was take baby Hitler out of baby Hitler's

01:39:40.360 house and move baby Hitler into a better house where he would not grow up to be Hitler,

01:39:44.320 right?

01:39:44.640 That's the idea.

01:39:46.540 But it is also true that the crime statistics do not even match up.

01:39:50.300 Criminologist Barry Latzer points out that abortions became available in 1973 under Roe

01:39:54.520 versus Wade.

01:39:55.660 Those young people would go on to create a massive crime spike and the crack cocaine epidemic.

01:40:00.620 But if you move forward 15 to 20 years, right, which that's when you would see the

01:40:04.960 crime drop due to the abortion of babies.

01:40:06.840 But there is no crime drop.

01:40:08.440 You'd expect the absent babies, right?

01:40:09.960 The babies that were killed starting in 1973 not to be around carjacking people.

01:40:14.180 But it turns out that people were still carjacking people 15 years after Roe v.

01:40:18.180 Wade, 20 years after Roe v.

01:40:19.480 Wade.

01:40:19.860 The crime spike only began to drop in 1994, a solid 21 years after Roe v.

01:40:25.960 Wade was actually put in place.

01:40:28.140 That can't be due to abortion, right?

01:40:30.780 That's really due to additional policing.

01:40:32.940 So it doesn't even match up statistically.

01:40:34.900 Now, in all of this discussion, I've refrained from discussing the Bible and religion.

01:40:39.220 Now, one of the arguments that I've made is based on the Bible or religion.

01:40:42.340 Now, the media will pretend that I didn't make any of these arguments, that it's all

01:40:44.880 about the Bible and religion, because the left prefers to believe that religion is stupid

01:40:49.420 and people who believe in religion are stupid, people who believe in God are idiots, and

01:40:52.240 that's the reason why we prefer to protect the lives of the unborn.

01:40:55.640 But we do have to recognize one religious root to every argument that I'm making, and that

01:40:59.420 is the innate value of human life.

01:41:00.900 That is a religiously based argument.

01:41:03.640 I mean, that's just a collection of great points on the topic.

01:41:07.900 Tell me how you get a defense of Hitler out of that.

01:41:14.860 I mean, it's implausible, obviously, because Ben Shapiro has been attacked by anti-Semites

01:41:19.580 more than any journalist.

01:41:21.100 This is not like me just saying it.

01:41:22.440 It was a study done by anti-Semitic attacks on journalists in 2016, and he was attacked

01:41:26.920 by more than any other journalist in existence.

01:41:31.900 The idea that he could be some pro-Hitler guy or some, he's so fanatic that he would

01:41:37.360 let the Holocaust happen to not let a woman have an abortion or whatever the accusation

01:41:41.280 is, they're all absurd.

01:41:43.320 So let me tell you what's happening here and why these things are put out, and then they

01:41:50.140 say, oh, I'm really sorry, because it doesn't matter.

01:41:53.680 The retraction doesn't matter, okay?

01:41:56.180 The image is already in your head.

01:41:58.740 So if you don't know Ben Shapiro, and you hear that Ben Shapiro was defending Hitler

01:42:05.460 by saying nobody should kill baby Hitler because he loves Hitler, and that's the spin you have,

01:42:11.680 even if you hear a few days later, that's not true.

01:42:15.120 That's still, that's still that.

01:42:17.280 That is seared into your head because it's an outrageous statement and an outrageous position.

01:42:22.140 So that's seared in your head.

01:42:23.860 Remember, you don't really know Ben Shapiro.

01:42:25.800 You're not really following Ben Shapiro.

01:42:27.520 You don't really care about this, but you saw someplace.

01:42:30.240 I read someplace that he's like a big anti-Semite, okay?

01:42:33.360 You get enough of those.

01:42:35.640 You all of a sudden start to say, Ben Shapiro is just a bad guy.

01:42:40.620 You don't know him.

01:42:42.440 You've never heard of him.

01:42:44.280 You've never met him.

01:42:46.060 You've never seen him.

01:42:47.300 You don't know anything about him except all of the falsehoods that have been put out.

01:42:53.140 Yeah.

01:42:53.780 That's disinformation.

01:42:56.620 Misinformation is a mistake.

01:42:59.060 Misinformation is something, sorry, we made a mistake.

01:43:04.040 Disinformation is intentionally put out there.

01:43:07.700 There's no way any journalist or anyone could possibly make that claim based on that soundbite.

01:43:14.240 Yet they continued to report it.

01:43:16.280 These activist groups went after his sponsors.

01:43:18.800 All the typical crap that goes on, knowing that there was absolutely nothing controversial about that comment.

01:43:24.080 And you have to know the difference between misinformation and disinformation.

01:43:29.000 What happened with the kids from Kentucky?

01:43:32.320 That was disinformation.

01:43:34.300 There were no mistakes made there.

01:43:36.920 Journalists don't make those kinds of easy mistakes.

01:43:41.320 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:43:46.800 I want to talk to you a little bit about CarShield.

01:43:48.740 You bring your car in.

01:43:50.060 Do you remember when we were kids, you would just pull off the side of the road and you'd have your hood up.

01:43:55.960 And you'd hope somebody stopped because you don't have a cell phone because we didn't have them.

01:44:01.440 Only rich people had them.

01:44:03.340 And you would be like, oh, please.

01:44:04.900 And I would watch.

01:44:05.680 I had a DeLorean once.

01:44:06.580 And I would watch that heater, the radiator start to go.

01:44:10.240 And I'm like, I got to get out of this traffic or this thing's going to blow.

01:44:12.900 And it always did.

01:44:14.260 And you would just be like, I'm stuck here now.

01:44:16.920 Remember that fear or the fear of that engine light going on?

01:44:20.260 And you're like, I don't have the money.

01:44:22.480 Don't fear that.

01:44:23.780 If you have a car that has 5,000, 150,000 miles, get covered now with CarShield.

01:44:29.100 They'll cover these things.

01:44:31.180 Take the stress out of your life.

01:44:33.120 Do it now.

01:44:33.680 1-800-CAR-6100.

01:44:36.100 800-CAR-6100.

01:44:38.080 Use the promo code back at CarShield.com.

01:44:45.440 Spent a lot of time today talking about the kid in the MAGA hat and the incident that happened at the March for Life rally.

01:44:51.280 We have one of his chaperones coming up next.

01:44:53.700 I have to tell you, I have seen a lot of protesters.

01:45:02.660 I've seen a lot of people act.

01:45:04.680 I've seen crowds of adults act like morons on both sides.

01:45:11.320 I've seen people make stupid mistakes.

01:45:13.720 But I have yet to see, outside of perhaps the crowd that we had in Washington, D.C.

01:45:22.800 I have yet to see, I have yet to see a crowd of kids act as Christ-like as I saw these kids in Covington act.

01:45:35.180 And if you read the letter of the main kid, Nick Sandman, who was the guy who was staring down the Native American, he wasn't.

01:45:46.940 He wasn't.

01:45:48.180 He was acting Christ-like.

01:45:50.460 And you see it if you watch the video.

01:45:52.720 I watched the videos.

01:45:54.240 I didn't watch the clips.

01:45:55.540 I watched the actual whole video.

01:45:57.880 And you see they were targeted.

01:46:00.980 He wasn't blocking anyone.

01:46:03.080 He was not smirking and laughing.

01:46:05.660 I would imagine that for a while there, he either got like the funeral giggles.

01:46:10.220 I was an altar boy.

01:46:11.240 Oh, I remember being taken back because I had my friend and I, we were altar boys at a funeral.

01:46:16.560 And we got the giggles.

01:46:18.740 And it wasn't because we wanted to.

01:46:20.880 It was because we didn't want to.

01:46:22.500 And, man, we got chastised by the priest.

01:46:24.980 It was not pretty.

01:46:26.280 Anyway, he's and I think he's just because he's smiling because of the absurdity of it.

01:46:32.500 But if you watch the whole video, that's only a fraction of a second.

01:46:36.620 And then he hears one of his classmates intelligently, not confronting, intelligently trying to argue with one of the Native American protesters who's calling them all kinds of names.

01:46:49.960 And Nick actually tries to stop the kid.

01:46:54.280 He's like, at one point, he's like, hey, don't, don't.

01:46:57.380 When his friend continues, that's when he turns around, grabs him and says, let's go.

01:47:02.140 The kid was doing on Martin Luther King Day.

01:47:05.760 I am proud to say this is a group of kids that Martin Luther King would hold up as a great example.

01:47:13.340 And everyone should do that.

01:47:16.300 Now, we have we have Jill Hamlin on.

01:47:19.900 She was a chaperone as they were waiting for the bus.

01:47:23.420 They weren't protesting.

01:47:24.340 They were just there waiting for the bus so they could go home.

01:47:28.480 Jill, welcome to the program.

01:47:30.900 Hi, Glenn.

01:47:31.660 Thank you.

01:47:32.180 I am.

01:47:33.600 I can't even imagine what you feel like.

01:47:36.040 I am so upset and I don't know any of the kids and I wasn't there.

01:47:41.020 Yeah, I is.

01:47:43.800 And it was upsetting when it happened.

01:47:46.580 And it's been even more upsetting to see the aftermath and just the torment these kids are going through and being so wrongly accused of something they did not do.

01:48:02.380 Tell me what the scene was, Jill.

01:48:04.340 As I know everybody's heard, this has been the meeting place.

01:48:10.460 It's a Lincoln Memorial for the boys to meet and get their buses.

01:48:14.740 That is what we do every year.

01:48:16.980 And every year, everybody does that because that's where the buses can make a circle.

01:48:21.600 It's the only place where the buses can wait and pick people up from all over the country.

01:48:27.680 That's where you meet.

01:48:28.720 But go ahead.

01:48:29.300 Exactly.

01:48:30.340 We had no idea that there was an indigenous march that day.

01:48:34.300 We were there for the March for Life, a peaceful march that we did.

01:48:38.820 We met.

01:48:39.880 We gathered on the steps because, as has been done in past years, the boys typically do their school cheer on the steps down below by the Lincoln Memorial.

01:48:49.660 Once they were gathering, there were other people milling around.

01:48:56.620 There were the black Hebrew Israelites.

01:49:01.560 I think that's what they call themselves.

01:49:03.380 Yeah.

01:49:03.580 Well, I lived in New York for about six years, so I can tell you they're crazy.

01:49:10.580 That's what we call them when you live in New York and you pass them every day.

01:49:13.360 You're like, oh, those crazy people are across the street.

01:49:15.600 We better cross the street.

01:49:16.700 Go ahead.

01:49:17.060 Yes.

01:49:18.020 They immediately, their eyes just darted over to the crowd of boys and, boom, they were the target immediately from the get-go.

01:49:28.820 Yep.

01:49:29.960 People from their group started running around with cameras, jumping up on columns and just filming everything.

01:49:38.200 And the boys just looked at each other like, why are they saying this to us?

01:49:43.300 We've done nothing wrong.

01:49:44.760 We haven't said anything.

01:49:46.120 We haven't instigated anything.

01:49:48.200 And the insults and the hatred that came out of the mouth of these people holding Bibles in their hands was disgusting.

01:49:56.200 Everybody, every journalist at every network has passed those guys on the streets of New York.

01:50:04.400 They know exactly who they are.

01:50:06.780 They know exactly the hateful, racist things that they say.

01:50:10.100 And for the journalists in America to actually not give someone else the benefit of the doubt when they have firsthand experience on the streets of New York of those people, it's despicable.

01:50:22.660 But go ahead.

01:50:23.480 Yes.

01:50:24.680 Yes.

01:50:25.380 And, you know, they just were in shock, as we all were.

01:50:32.180 And so we just thought, you know, we're just going to stay together as our group on the steps and we're going to ignore the insults.

01:50:39.900 And then you have Nathan Phillips with his four or five people.

01:50:44.900 He started, you know, he had been beating his drum and the boys were all crowded around.

01:50:51.840 I mean, we were all standing there.

01:50:53.500 The chaperones were all around.

01:50:55.800 It's unfortunate that people think we were nowhere to be found.

01:50:59.880 But Nathan Phillips inserted himself into our group of boys.

01:51:06.040 Have you watched the video from them?

01:51:07.860 Because I watched several videos from several different people on all sides.

01:51:12.320 If you watch the video from the Native American point of view, they specifically target your group.

01:51:19.500 They specifically approach your group because they say, look at all of those white, white Europeans.

01:51:27.340 And they specifically know what they're walking into.

01:51:32.400 Yes, they did.

01:51:33.780 And he was not trying to diffuse a situation.

01:51:37.000 He made it worse.

01:51:38.300 He made it worse because he wants the attention and he has drug this school and these boys and their reputations through the worst possible way that he could.

01:51:52.020 And he did not diffuse the situation.

01:51:54.840 And everyone says, why didn't the boy move away?

01:51:58.880 He couldn't.

01:51:59.780 He was surrounded by his classmates.

01:52:02.440 They were all standing there.

01:52:03.900 And to your point earlier, he was afraid.

01:52:07.560 He is a young man.

01:52:09.400 He's not an adult.

01:52:11.760 Most of these kids have never been confronted with this type of situation.

01:52:15.840 And they shouldn't have been done that either by Nathan Phillips.

01:52:21.080 He said that all these people were calling names, blah, blah, blah.

01:52:26.840 He was trying to diffuse this is this is your Catholic student trying to diffuse at one point.

01:52:35.400 He said, I just felt that these adults were trying to use the kids, us kids as a proper.

01:52:48.080 So I can't remember.

01:52:48.740 He said it.

01:52:49.340 He said it beautifully and I can't find it.

01:52:51.300 But he knew these kids, I repeat, kids are being persecuted for actions they did not commit.

01:52:58.520 It's truly horrifying.

01:53:00.180 And he talks about how he was standing there with adults trying to provoke them.

01:53:06.260 And he knew that's what was happening.

01:53:09.240 Yes.

01:53:09.940 Jill, can you hold on?

01:53:10.960 I want to take a quick break and then I want to come back and continue our conversation.

01:53:15.240 We'll we'll continue.

01:53:16.900 This is this is Jill Hamlin.

01:53:18.180 And she was a chaperone, Covington Catholic High School.

01:53:21.680 You should be proud of every student that goes to Covington.

01:53:25.180 I don't care.

01:53:26.020 I don't care what anyone else is saying.

01:53:28.020 You watch those videos.

01:53:29.320 If you watch those videos, if your child was in that group, if, in fact, the parents of Nick Sandman.

01:53:37.920 Oh, my gosh.

01:53:39.100 If I was his father, I would say mission accomplished.

01:53:43.240 Mission accomplished.

01:53:44.400 I thank you, Lord.

01:53:46.500 Thank you.

01:53:47.200 But I obviously raised my son, right?

01:53:49.440 I raised my son to the light.

01:53:51.200 It's me and it's the Covington Catholic High School that have actually done it.

01:53:56.300 I think these kids are Martin Luther King Junior Juniors.

01:54:03.740 They are little Martin Luther Kings.

01:55:31.440 Jill Hamlin.

01:55:32.360 She was a chaperone at Covington Catholic High School over what?

01:55:37.880 I think it was on Friday that this video was shot and filmed.

01:55:43.560 It was Friday, wasn't it?

01:55:46.600 And Friday.

01:55:48.220 And it's just it's horrible what has happened to the Covington Catholic High School students over the weekend.

01:55:56.560 She was there.

01:55:57.720 There there are apparently some shots and some indications that some of the kids were making, you know, listless, you know, tomahawk chop signals or something like that.

01:56:13.360 I did not see any of that.

01:56:15.520 Jill, did you see any of that?

01:56:18.280 I did not see any of it.

01:56:20.360 I was standing at the very top of the stairs to the side and in the back of the boys to try and just make sure that other people weren't going to come up from them from behind.

01:56:32.980 Because the boys were targeted immediately because of what they were wearing and what they represented.

01:56:41.180 And it's a very sad day that our society has become so full of hate.

01:56:51.160 If you don't agree with one person's viewpoint, it's sickening and it's disgusting that these people bullied underage boys and they're wanting now to put their faces and their names all over social media.

01:57:08.060 Oh, Twitter is not doing anything to stop the hunting of these kids.

01:57:13.060 So, Jill, at what point did you know this had gone horribly awry against the boys?

01:57:20.500 Well, at the point, Nathan Phillips was still in the center.

01:57:27.580 And at that time, the Hebrew Israelites started coming closer to our group.

01:57:36.140 And, you know, I know that everyone's saying, well, why didn't you get them out of there sooner?

01:57:41.700 Well, if we had walked away and tried to get that whole group while Nathan Phillips was in the middle of us, we would have been chastised for being disrespectful and not honoring the Native American.

01:57:55.340 We stood there and waited for him thinking, you know, we didn't know what he was doing.

01:58:00.740 We just thought we need to respect this man and stand still.

01:58:04.340 But once the other group started getting closer and screaming even more filthy, I'm telling you, filthy, disgusting.

01:58:14.960 No, they're horrible.

01:58:16.140 This is a horrible, horrible, awful group that every, and I mean it, every journalist in New York City has walked by these guys a million times and they know exactly who they are.

01:58:30.100 And they are horrible.

01:58:32.220 They say horrible, awful, offensive, nasty things to everyone.

01:58:38.840 Yes.

01:58:39.860 So at that point, we said, okay, we need to get them going.

01:58:44.560 You know, there's almost 200 boys, so it's not like all of a sudden you can snap your fingers and they come running.

01:58:51.280 We started yelling at them, let's get, let's go, let's get over here, let's go to our buses.

01:58:56.660 They heard us.

01:58:58.420 We got them out of there.

01:59:00.100 And we went over to, across the street to this little, you know, seating area.

01:59:06.540 And we all gathered over there and waited about another half hour or so for our buses.

01:59:12.800 And when did social media start turning on you?

01:59:15.680 When did you get, when did, when were you alerted?

01:59:19.680 We, it started on the bus ride home because our buses broke down going there and coming back.

01:59:27.520 It was kind of, you know, just a debacle from that standpoint.

01:59:31.880 But we were all on the bus.

01:59:34.340 There were five buses total.

01:59:35.980 We ended up with four coming home.

01:59:37.760 And all night, the teachers, one teacher was having to take down the social media of Covington Catholic because people had posted the names and email addresses of the entire faculty on Twitter.

01:59:51.560 I mean, it was constant.

01:59:53.920 And then we started hearing this one particular person who inserted herself in the crowd and filmed everything.

02:00:02.280 She was posting on Instagram, a video, and it just, it just got worse from there.

02:00:08.320 And when we got back, well, not when we got back, but before, when all this started, each bus, there were four to five adults in each bus.

02:00:18.820 And we all sat up and told the boys, do not respond, do not forward anything, do not post anything, do not respond to any of these allegations and what is being falsely told.

02:00:34.140 And then, you know, it got worse from there.

02:00:36.540 Jill, I am, and I want you to carry this to the boys and carry this to everybody that you meet at Covington.

02:00:43.760 I think I would, I would put my kids in that school in a heartbeat today, seeing how disciplined they were, seeing what has the response that has come.

02:00:57.520 I would have a problem moving to Covington because the mayor didn't, I mean, his own people, he just dogpiles on.

02:01:04.600 I honestly, I would like to ask you, I'd like to continue our conversation off air, but I would, I would love to come to Covington and talk to you guys, the parents and the kids, not about this incident, but what they have learned at that school and what they have learned in life that caused them to behave the way they did in all of the positive ways.

02:01:33.020 I think these kids need to be held up as an example for, I'd like my son to act like those kids did.

02:01:41.620 Jill, thank you so much.

02:01:46.520 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
