Transcript

00:00:00.000 Glenn Beck. Spartacus has had his victory. Four days. Yes, the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee have done it. They have delayed Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation vote. Until Thursday. What a victory for Spartacus.
00:00:22.780 All of the theatrics and utter ridiculousness of the past couple of weeks bought them four days. In the meantime, I also want to extend my congratulations for what else they've done. Nice work. Democrats, you have done an amazing job turning the Senate Judiciary Committee into an absolute joke.
00:00:43.620 I seriously think everyone involved. Well, maybe not Ben Sass and Mike Lee. Everyone involved should just now arrive at work in one clown car. This is this is ridiculous.
00:00:58.700 I mean, are you engaging knowingly into self satire? As if we needed any reason to look at big government in utter disgust. But nice work on giving us one more reason. Just for a quick recap, this confirmation started off with Democrats shouting down the Judiciary Committee chairperson during his opening comments.
00:01:19.840 Then it rapidly devolved into a showdown between future Democratic presidential hopefuls desperate for camera time.
00:01:27.660 Cory Booker calling himself Spartacus. I am Spartacus. Please, somebody pay attention to me. Somebody call me Spartacus, please.
00:01:41.820 But they saved what I believe is the worst for what I hope is the last.
00:01:49.840 What do you do if all of your insane theatrics fail?
00:01:53.280 Well, you just allege sexual misconduct. Obviously.
00:01:58.600 Dianne Feinstein, the ranking Democrat on the committee, recently announced that she had forwarded information to the FBI regarding a possible case, a possible case involving Kavanaugh.
00:02:08.760 She gave absolutely no details.
00:02:11.120 I wonder if it's Anita Hill.
00:02:15.500 But she did mention that there were unnamed sources in New York.
00:02:19.840 Oh, good, good, good, good.
00:02:22.200 New York Times claims it concerns sexual misconduct when Kavanaugh was in high school.
00:02:28.920 Let me say that again.
00:02:30.360 When Kavanaugh was in high school.
00:02:37.180 High school.
00:02:38.380 Okay, how many of us, you know, weren't exactly adults when we were in high school?
00:02:48.080 Oh, I don't know.
00:02:48.700 All of us.
00:02:50.020 Do we know if there was like a Billy Madison situation where he had to re-attend high school as an adult?
00:02:55.400 I don't know.
00:02:56.200 I don't know.
00:02:57.620 I don't.
00:02:58.100 Maybe.
00:02:58.800 Maybe.
00:02:59.100 This is her statement.
00:03:00.800 I have received information from an individual concerning the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.
00:03:08.960 Now, that individual strongly requested confidentiality.
00:03:13.360 They've declined to come forward or press the matter even any further than this.
00:03:19.160 And I've honored that decision.
00:03:21.560 But I have referred the matter to the federal investigative authorities.
00:03:26.620 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:03:28.640 The individual does not want to be named, does not want to come forward, refuses to press this any further, but you've turned it over to-
00:03:41.140 You're honoring that request by turning it over to the FBI?
00:03:47.620 I have secret information about Senator Feinstein.
00:03:55.700 it is bad it is really bad it can it concerns golden showers with elephants uh she was humping
00:04:07.200 putin's leg well i don't want to say anymore i don't want to say anymore i it's not coming from
00:04:12.820 me and this person you i can't identify doesn't want to come out will not testify doesn't want
00:04:20.760 to press this any further but i'm going to whisper this into the ears of the fbi and while i'm doing
00:04:27.440 that i'm going to tell all of the american people about it i'm just honoring the you know the request
00:04:33.960 of of the person who refuses to be named does not want to press it any further are you kidding me
00:04:42.240 the fbi has already commented saying they are not opening an investigation why not with that kind
00:04:50.400 of evidence how do you not just throw him in jail i'm sure they're probably a little pissed off at
00:04:57.200 being brought into this theater of the absurd but i would like to deliver the very hard truth to the
00:05:04.600 senate democrats this morning you've lost your mind you've lost your mind brett kavanaugh i mean brett

00:06:10.760 it's friday september 14th this is the glenn beck program okay it is friday september 14th
00:06:23.820 september 11th 2001 we looked at each other all of us all of us and said oh man doesn't it feel good
00:06:32.280 that the nonsense has stopped doesn't it feel good that we're actually talking about things that
00:06:37.420 matter in life i'm never gonna go back i'm gonna stay awake
00:06:43.620 i said i'm gonna stay wide awake
00:06:49.920 look at us
00:06:54.240 let me ask you this we're still fighting a friggin war that started in 2001 we're still
00:07:04.480 fighting it can you name where our soldiers are can you name the countries where our soldiers are can
00:07:10.340 you name what we're doing can you tell me what we're doing who we're fighting god forbid you say
00:07:15.440 who we're fighting you can't say who we're fighting well how can we possibly win if we don't even know
00:07:23.020 who we're fighting september 14th 2001 we were beginning to see who we were going to fight
00:07:28.900 we were going to fight people with a perverted idea of what the world should be like people who
00:07:37.060 blew up these beautiful ancient statues carved from a mountain of buddha you remember that
00:07:45.560 they were world heritage uh sites blown up because well it's sharia law tells us to
00:07:56.660 molesting little girls marrying them off at eight years old female genital mutilation
00:08:06.720 12th century if that might have even made the 12th century look like barbarians
00:08:15.540 or the other way around
00:08:18.680 now can we talk about it no no we really can't
00:08:26.620 robert spencer is a guy that we're going to have on the podcast this weekend you need to hear him
00:08:32.040 robert spencer and by the way listen while you can this is the biggest message i have for you today
00:08:38.000 listen while you can gather as much information from the from from people that you can print it out
00:08:48.500 i read everything on kindle i'm stopping i'm buying every physical book i can
00:08:56.560 because you don't actually own that they can take that off your kindle at any time
00:09:02.940 there's nothing there's nothing better than a library that can be erased especially if it's
00:09:08.360 politically incorrect now there's no evidence that that's happening or anybody's even thinking
00:09:13.200 of that happening now but it can and in a few minutes i'll show you what google is doing and
00:09:18.820 tell me that it won't happen here's robert spencer robert spencer is a scholar
00:09:27.140 and he has been trying to warn the world about what he says is islam and he's technically correct
00:09:39.940 if you look back to the quran and you know what it means on how it's written etc etc this is the way
00:09:49.580 the way they're practicing it over in the middle east is the way islam is supposed to function
00:09:55.760 but there are millions of people maybe 90 percent of those who are are muslim don't agree with the old
00:10:07.780 style but you have to know what the old style is because those are the people trying to kill us
00:10:14.820 here's a bit of the interview um some things that people would um maybe disagree with some things that
00:10:23.620 people should do their own homework and go wait a minute he said this let me look that up and go to
00:10:28.620 original sources yes um but i haven't heard anything uh here that makes me say well i don't
00:10:38.660 know anything that would make me say this that you should be silenced well obviously i don't think i
00:10:43.900 should but i think that anyone who speaks honestly about the nature of this threat and the fact that
00:10:50.040 there are elements of islam that give rise to violence this doesn't mean every muslim is violent but
00:10:54.440 that the ones who are are able to justify their actions by recourse to the holy texts anybody who
00:11:00.360 speaks honestly about that is nowadays systematically targeted and vilified with an attempt to destroy
00:11:06.880 and completely discredit him do you are we in are we in mccarthy times oh yeah this is worse than
00:11:16.240 mccarthyism those guys could work you know they may have worked under pseudonyms but they could work
00:11:22.800 i mean i'm still doing this but there's no chance i could get any other kind of work even under a
00:11:27.940 pseudonym because it would be ultimately discovered and then that would be that and the idea that
00:11:32.900 speaking honestly about the the derivations of the jihad threat and its nature and magnitude today
00:11:38.880 renders one a social pariah i think is is ridiculous and evidence of how topsy-turvy the world is
00:11:44.880 but that's how it is here's a guy who's been de-platformed completely de-platformed
00:11:52.620 he is being squashed by all sides in fact in something new that the left has discovered which
00:12:02.400 i think is absolutely insidious mastercard has come out and said we won't do any transactions
00:12:11.700 on anything related to him this is the latest this is what they're this is what they're doing now
00:12:18.540 with uh gun control they've new york state has encouraged um encouraged those banking facilities
00:12:27.660 to not do any any transactions and not provide any financial services to those who manufacture guns
00:12:36.100 or sell guns of a certain type you know the the weapon of war otherwise known as the modern sporting rifle
00:12:42.860 is this the america you want to live in
00:12:48.440 now shouting fake news is not going to help us actually talking about the issues will
00:12:59.840 and actually finding ways to reach out to people who are on both sides of the aisle and i'm not
00:13:08.860 talking about the crazies i'm talking about people who are beginning to wake up on both sides and
00:13:15.840 saying wait a minute people are silencing speech
00:13:20.080 we cannot even fight a war if we can't identify who we're fighting or what we're fighting
00:13:29.580 if we said we were just fighting the germans and we were told we could not ever talk about nazism
00:13:36.680 let me ask you this if we couldn't talk about nazism if we weren't allowed to know what that was
00:13:45.460 would you feel comfortable with germans today because i wouldn't of course you'd be racist
00:13:52.780 of course you'd be uh against the germans and never trust them if you were told you can't talk about
00:14:01.840 nazism because it was the nazi ideology that actually changed those people and not all of them
00:14:10.580 hitler came in with 30 percent a lot of people went along with it but why do they go along with it
00:14:19.660 they went along with it for the same reason that there are people here in america that stay silent
00:14:25.640 because their lives are at stake because of the zealots that will kill them
00:14:31.660 i'm gonna i'm gonna take you to google next and i'm gonna show you what what's happening in google
00:14:44.300 right now i want you to know that the voices are being silenced i want you to know that i i ask
00:14:55.680 bill o'reilly mark levin ben uh shapiro rush limbaugh everyone i think everyone on the right we need to
00:15:07.800 have a summit we need to have no no press we need to have a summit because voices are being silenced
00:15:19.200 and someone needs to step to the plate that can provide a platform bigger than anything i can
00:15:27.760 provide or you can provide that will guarantee voices not being silenced and it's going to require
00:15:37.240 all of us to come out of our our competitive nature it's going to require all of us to set aside
00:15:46.080 our differences if i agree with you 80 percent or if you agree with me 80 percent that doesn't
00:15:54.840 make you my enemy you're not 20 percent my enemy we agree on 80 percent
00:16:01.780 we have to put our differences aside and the american people have got to start understanding
00:16:11.060 what is happening in this country because it's not happening in washington it's happening in
00:16:19.660 silicon valley and in the banking sector

00:20:53.140 before you start to make claims have you read his work or you just knee-jerk reaction here he is on
00:21:02.520 um the the treatment he receives at universities the last chapter is called the the west loses the

00:21:18.180 can i take cut four please cut four i was speaking last year at the university at buffalo but i really
00:21:24.440 didn't speak i just got yelled at for an hour and a half and i was standing there and every now and
00:21:28.460 then i would say something but most of the time they were just yelling too loud i couldn't say
00:21:32.580 anything but there was a young man in the audience he had a sign said queers against islamophobia
00:21:37.620 and so i had a manual of islamic law with me certified by al-azhar the foremost institution in sunni
00:21:45.240 islam where barack obama went to give his outreach speech to the muslim world in 2009 and i opened it
00:21:51.320 up and i started to read about how the homosexual should be killed should be put to death both him
00:21:56.880 who gives and him who receives the whole thing very set out the whole place started to boo and boo and
00:22:02.740 boo and i held up the book i said you think i wrote this you think this comes from me and a young man
00:22:08.840 came over in a kufi and a kaftan with the beard and he hugged the queers against islamophobia guy and
00:22:14.200 this is my best friend and i said look i didn't originate these laws gays are being killed put to
00:22:21.940 death in iran in saudi arabia in the isis domains elsewhere anywhere where sharia is now listen here's
00:22:28.460 a guy you can hear that whole um interview it's fascinating and i highly recommend it in fact i
00:22:35.560 would i don't even know if you can do this but i would burn it to uh dvd um uh i highly recommend
00:22:42.780 that you listen to this this guy and make your own mind up but do your own homework find out why you
00:22:50.340 disagree with him it will make you stronger either way so he's being silenced now we know that um google
00:23:02.520 through some smuggled video these guys think that i mean they they just are terrified of america
00:23:11.420 in fact you please play the google executive uh on the move to canada this is eileen notton
00:23:17.540 she is the uh vice president of people operations at google the second question is around internal
00:23:24.960 mobility can i move to canada now listen how she treats this this is after the election now one could
00:23:34.760 guesstimate that at least 50 percent of americans are interested in moving to canada right now
00:23:40.160 and that might mean maybe at least 50 percent of googlers might be interested in moving to not a chance
00:23:46.680 toronto and uh waterloo can't handle us all i'm afraid but she goes on to say but we will move people
00:23:54.360 are you are you are you that unaware of what america is what we represent how important it is that we
00:24:03.540 retain our constitution and the bill of rights you want to move to canada because you're afraid
00:24:11.160 what your voice will be silenced what you'll be rounded up did you see the uh story from england with
00:24:20.260 the lbgtbq is lmnop uh groups that are now talking about humane gulags for those people who are
00:24:32.060 homophobic or transphobic because they have to be removed from society
00:24:38.500 we are not a people that burn books we are not a people that silence people we cannot ever become
00:24:47.360 those people right now google is in bed with china they are they are developing android devices
00:24:56.420 a chinese search app for android devices now they've turned this down before but suddenly
00:25:03.860 for some reason they want to get in bed with google or google wants to get into bed with china
00:25:10.000 so this is we've talked about this before this is extraordinarily dangerous if you know what's
00:25:16.480 happening china 2020 what their goal is what they will unleash because it's already in operation
00:25:23.060 in three of the cities of china this is their stated goal of complete control of people their
00:25:32.440 communications their thoughts their actions their spending total control by 2020 now you would think
00:25:42.940 that an organization like google wouldn't want to have anything to do with that but instead they are
00:25:48.960 they are doing um development on a an app code named dragonfly it was designed to remove content that
00:25:58.840 china's authoritarian government views as sensitive such as information about political dissidents
00:26:04.940 free speech democracy human rights and peaceful protests google is in bed with china if they will help
00:26:14.660 remove speech in china what makes us think they will not do the same to us or are not doing the same to
00:26:22.960 us now
00:26:23.680 i want to read something in a book that i find um frightening uh on multiple levels and i really
00:26:43.760 really want to i really want to sit down and talk to this guy i don't know if he will we've had him on the
00:26:50.400 show before um his name is yuval noah harari and he's just written 21 lessons for the 21st century i just
00:26:58.700 want you to listen um uh to what he has uh what he has just uh said is is coming the 21st century what is
00:27:10.160 it what is it really going to look like he says even more important the twin revolutions of infotech and
00:27:18.180 biotech could restructure not just economies and societies but our own bodies and minds
00:27:25.960 in the past we humans learned to control the world outside of us we had very little control of the
00:27:32.960 world on the inside of us we knew how to build a dam and stop a river from flowing but we didn't
00:27:38.720 know how to stop the body from aging we knew how to design an irrigation system but we had no idea
00:27:44.040 how to design a brain if a mosquito buzzed in our ear and disturbed our sleep we knew how to kill the
00:27:50.000 mosquito but if a thought buzzed in our mind and kept us awake at night most of us did not know how to
00:27:57.480 kill the thought the revolutions in biotech and infotech will give us control of the world inside of us
00:28:06.120 and will enable us to in engineer and manufacture life we will learn how to design brains extend lives
00:28:15.680 and kill thoughts at our discretion still quoting nobody knows what the consequences will be
00:28:25.120 humans after all were always far better at inventing tools than using them wisely
00:28:31.100 similarly it is easier to manipulate a river by building a dam than it is to predict all of the
00:28:36.980 complex consequences that this will have for the wider ecological system similarly it will be easier to
00:28:43.700 redirect the flow of our minds similarly similarly i can't even say that word it will be easier to
00:28:51.000 redirect the flow of our minds than to divine what that will do to our personal psychology and our social
00:29:00.120 systems in the past we gained the power to manipulate the world around us and reshape the
00:29:06.060 entire planet because we didn't understand the complexity of the global ecology the changes we
00:29:11.360 made has inadvertently disrupted the entire ecological system and now we face an ecological collapse
00:29:18.000 you can agree or disagree in the coming century biotech and infotech will give us the power to
00:29:25.220 manipulate the world to manipulate the world inside us and reshape ourselves but because we don't
00:29:31.400 understand the complexity of our own minds the changes we will make will we do not know the changes we
00:29:39.000 will make that if they will upset our mental system to such an extent that we too may break down
00:29:46.940 what are we doing talking about tweets what are we doing fighting about you know norm mcdonald said
00:30:02.700 something and so he's been kicked off the tonight show if we're kicking people off the freaking tonight
00:30:08.940 show for having an opinion what do you think is coming our way
00:30:14.480 if we have someone as powerful as google getting in bed with a country as evil as china is
00:30:26.600 and helping them silence voices and information what makes you think they're not already willing to do this
00:30:37.600 here this week i've presented evidence from media matters they are already receiving raw data
00:30:49.900 on all of the interactions online with twitter and facebook and youtube they have access to the raw data
00:31:02.560 who else has access to our raw data i certainly don't boy i'd love to see that i bet google facebook
00:31:12.940 youtube wouldn't let me see it they are also now advising google youtube facebook twitter
00:31:22.780 on what's offensive and what's not what's hate speech and what's not
00:31:30.640 are you comfortable with this
00:31:33.500 um do you know they passed a big law in europe uh was it the uk yes no it was europe
00:31:40.860 was it europe overall european union law um that said that now all of these big tech companies have
00:31:46.360 to if you ask for it prepare all of this information and show you exactly what they have
00:31:50.860 and give it to you and so it's the idea being transparency you own your data all of that of course then
00:31:56.320 you're giving all this really important data to someone who's much less prepared and able to
00:32:02.060 protect it from god only knows who's trying to find it from you know from hackers and things like
00:32:07.140 that but it's interesting to see because now they have i think it's facebook has weekly standard
00:32:12.380 they put them on the fact checking team good right and it's a good thing right that you know you have a
00:32:17.720 conservative uh organization that can actually look at these things well they fact checked a think
00:32:22.820 progress piece and now the left is making all the same arguments now this has happened to them one
00:32:28.180 time and it's happened to the right a zillion times but they're making all the same arguments
00:32:32.900 what we're just going to have a weekly standard come in here and say that our article is wrong
00:32:37.060 they now they're saying they're going to cut the access for this think progress piece which by
00:32:42.680 the way weekly center was completely right on it is a complete lie but they're going to cut
00:32:46.400 cut the reach of that article by 80 percent because it's not true now it they are right it isn't true
00:32:53.900 it's typical think progress and they lie all the time but are you couldn't are you comfortable
00:32:58.940 with anyone silencing anyone because i am not i am not comfortable with the weekly standard
00:33:08.780 telling anyone don't run that story or reduce its penetration and i'm not comfortable with anyone
00:33:17.140 you know media matters politifact or anything telling anyone on the other side don't run that
00:33:23.460 i believe in the american people treat us like adults and more importantly respect the freedom of
00:33:34.520 dissent the freedom of speech no matter how ugly it is it is the only way that people can remain free
00:33:44.760 by the way a lot of this is covered in my new book addicted to outrage um pick it up because it will
00:33:52.920 open your eyes uh and it will show you a path forward because the strategies that we're using now

00:37:07.060 tour on tour this fall for tickets vip packages and more visit glenn beck.com glenn beck by now uh
00:37:17.780 thanks to the incessant fear-mongering by democrats you're probably aware that american women are going
00:37:22.080 to lose all of their rights we're going to keep them in cages uh as soon as kavanaugh becomes supreme
00:37:26.560 court justice in fact we're not even wait for him to be sworn in we're just we're starting to yeah
00:37:31.700 fema's fema's already starting to acquire all the cages for women um now of course that's not true but
00:37:38.440 that hasn't stopped anyone from believing those kinds of hysteric hysterics the anti-kavanaugh hysteria
00:37:44.600 now has inspired democrats in maine to get creative because one of their senators sort of republican
00:37:51.140 susan collins is considered a potential deciding vote in kavanaugh's confirmation and they are
00:37:56.160 threatening to donate a million dollars to her 2020 democratic opponent unless collins votes no
00:38:02.460 on kavanaugh using a crowdfunding site called crowd pack two groups called maine people's alliance and
00:38:09.560 mainers for accountable leadership posted a listing that says people of maine are asking you to be a hero
00:38:16.240 senator collins if you fail to stand up for the people of maine and for americans across the country
00:38:21.800 every dollar donated to this campaign will go to your eventual democratic opponent in 2020 and we will
00:38:28.380 get you out of office the project has already received pledges from 37 000 people totaling over a million
00:38:34.200 dollars and in a weird way they're basically attempting to buy her vote in some circles this would be
00:38:41.680 known as bribery but the founding fathers couldn't have seen it you know on a crowdsourcing
00:38:46.760 uh-huh senator collins released a statement calling it extortion and one of the groups behind the effort
00:38:53.840 called her response politics at its worst really the main group's twist is that if collin votes
00:39:00.760 no on kavanaugh they supposedly won't collect the pledges from their 37 000 donors but they're still
00:39:06.760 using it uh using the pledged money to try to induce collins to vote the way they want they're just not
00:39:13.060 offering the money directly to collins like your typical old-fashioned kind of bribe like many poorly
00:39:19.560 conceived schemes in our social media age maine democrats i don't think you've thought this one through
00:39:28.060 because bribery is a federal crime and just because you know this is kind of hipster and an adverse bribe
00:39:35.400 several legal experts think this is technically still a bribe and could these groups be shooting
00:39:41.700 themselves in the foot with this strategy what if by trying to force collins to vote no on kavanaugh
00:39:47.240 they inadvertently cause her to vote yes simply to avoid looking like she was influenced by their scare
00:39:53.440 tactics and just when you thought politics couldn't get any more bizarre
00:39:58.520 it's friday september 14th this is the glenbeck program
00:40:09.960 we go to bill o'reilly now um who i know wants to lead uh with an apology because he said last week
00:40:19.040 that he didn't think the um the bob woodward book would sell and now that it's a you know
00:40:24.480 the biggest selling book of all time including i think the bible uh i'm sure he's going to lead
00:40:30.500 with that hello bill well let's be accurate i didn't i said i didn't think it would have legs
00:40:35.300 the book would have legs in the sense that it will be a bestseller um you know for months okay
00:40:42.920 can i ask you wrong on that i mean look no no i'm just kidding you i'm just kidding you have you read
00:40:47.040 the book i have not okay stew has because i haven't had a chance to read it yet um either i do the
00:40:52.980 work that america doesn't want to do correct and he brought up a really good point this morning yeah
00:40:57.320 there's interesting section bill uh i at least like to get your take on this part of it because
00:41:00.880 the last chapter is actually i would i took it as really favorable to trump um it's about the russian
00:41:07.040 collusion investigation with muller and trump comes off as incredibly cooperative with muller
00:41:13.920 the entire white house very cooperative with him giving him everything he could possibly want
00:41:19.520 largely based on the idea that they were totally convinced they've done absolutely nothing wrong
00:41:24.900 and they had nothing to hide they gave him much more than they even asked for and uh and this you
00:41:31.620 know a lot a lot of the reporting has revolved around this comment that one of trump's lawyers
00:41:36.120 made to trump where he said you know you'll be in an orange jumpsuit uh but that's not that's from
00:41:41.600 that section and the section is very positive on trump and it's not about collusion it's about the idea
00:41:46.760 that trump wanted to testify and doubt his lawyer was like look it's a perjury trap they're going to
00:41:52.620 find any way they can to trap you this isn't even about russia anymore they're going to trap you you
00:41:57.920 can't do it no matter what you know no matter what you just can't do it or you'll be in an orange
00:42:02.280 jumpsuit that's a totally different story than what the press is reporting well i think woodward
00:42:09.960 himself is selling the book as excuse me a cautionary tale that if you put an inexperienced um
00:42:20.400 egotistical person in the white house you're going to have chaos that's how woodward himself is selling
00:42:26.380 the book so i'm glad stew read it i didn't know the last chapter was about that i had ken star and
00:42:34.000 the no spin news on bill o'reilly.com this week and he said flat out that what has been uh put
00:42:41.500 forth so far um there's no crime at all right that's what star said right okay so you get you get a
00:42:51.140 position where if if woodward himself is going to say look i need to sell this book and this is exactly
00:42:57.500 what he did to people who don't like trump because nobody who likes it's going to read the book then
00:43:03.620 i'm going to have to go negative and and spin it that way and that's what you're seeing so while you
00:43:09.880 know how i feel about the media in general i don't think it's a media play here i think it's a woodward
00:43:15.560 play let me um let me change topics here on uh diane feinstein oh geez this is phenomenal
00:43:26.060 unbelievable can you can you recap for anybody who doesn't know i can give you an update too
00:43:31.660 okay give me the give me first let's go let's go for the recap and then you can give the update
00:43:35.560 all right yeah i just want to re-emphasize how lucky you are to have me every friday oh my gosh
00:43:39.940 bill i i get up every morning and i fall to my knees and i say thank you i know i mean i'm on it
00:43:45.180 and all that right i know so there's a letter that was given to a democratic congressperson in
00:43:50.820 california pass it along to diane feinstein this summer the letter was written by someone we have
00:43:57.200 no idea who that uh details something that happened to brett kavanaugh when he was in high school high
00:44:03.600 school yeah we don't know what right and we don't know who and the person who the writer is and we
00:44:10.460 don't know what is in the letter right and the person who gave it to feinstein said i don't want to
00:44:16.160 press charges i don't want to get involved don't want to get involved but here's the letter yes so
00:44:21.720 feinstein sits on the letter okay instead of immediately turning it over to the fbi he does
00:44:26.660 background checks and that's why the fbi is involved the fbi does background checks on all
00:44:31.540 supreme court just nominees instead of immediately saying you know look i don't know what this is it
00:44:36.380 could be totally bogus here fbi is a letter i'm going to wash my hands of it and i'm not going to say
00:44:41.600 anything about it no feinstein sits on the letter and then allows someone in our staff i believe it
00:44:49.060 could be i could be wrong could be the congressperson staff member to leak it to leak that that this is
00:44:56.340 oh this is some misconduct don't i love that word misconduct on a part of brett kavanaugh when he was
00:45:02.240 in high school okay so nobody knows whether it's true or not sleek so he gets out okay so now today
00:45:09.120 just about an hour ago uh the guardian not a reliable source it's a far left newspaper out of
00:45:17.760 britain wait before you wait wait before you say anything yes stew is there anything that happened
00:45:23.720 in high school other than murder or or something like that something that you did when you were 16
00:45:30.660 years old yeah i mean obviously a major crime a major crime right like people do really dumb things
00:45:35.820 that are awkward but if there's a huge crime obviously that would still you're raping people
00:45:39.900 you're killing animals uh okay we need to talk about that all right what did they say but but but it's
00:45:46.360 misconduct yes so you know what the flag is there you absolutely know what it is everybody who the far
00:45:55.200 left wants to destroy is guilty of misconduct so me too can get involved i mean it's the biggest
00:46:03.080 witch hunt in this country's history but i digress the guardian reports and again unreliable newspaper
00:46:12.060 that brett kavanaugh and another kid were at a party a high school party whereupon they locked some
00:46:19.760 girl in a room and ran away and the girl got out that's what they're reporting is in the letter
00:46:27.220 well they were locked her in the room and then they raped her no they ran away they locked her in
00:46:32.960 the room and they fondled her no they ran away they locked her in the room and uh very gender
00:46:42.760 specific with her i don't know we don't know what we're talking about because this is the guardian i
00:46:48.880 want to just make sure that everybody even if it is the guardian if that's what you got
00:46:53.280 that's what they say that it's in the letter so even the new york post which is one of the
00:47:00.860 top drivers of misconduct even their editorial board said today this is a new low for the democratic
00:47:11.200 party now i don't know whether i i've seen lower things the the i think the susan collins stuff is
00:47:17.560 lower the the fbi the fbi uh came out and said they're not even they're not considering this
00:47:23.500 that's just they're not going to do anything on this and pursue it of course not i mean this is
00:47:27.400 and uh you know it's not been front and center on the cable news programs because of the category
00:47:35.360 one now rainstorm in the carolinas which they hype to death and so they can't wedge this kavanaugh
00:47:44.200 thing in yet so that kavanaugh got a break on that okay let me ask you this bill as i was i got up this
00:47:50.800 morning and um i was listening to um the daily it's the new york times you know 20 minute update and
00:47:58.720 they do an interview with somebody and it's it's fascinating to listen to and uh they had bob
00:48:03.720 woodward on a couple of days ago and uh they were they were talking to him and and they started
00:48:08.500 talking about um sources and uh hidden sources and unnamed sources and the importance of those
00:48:17.460 and bob was talking about the importance of those in the nixon um era and i i kind of understand i mean
00:48:25.440 i think there is a place for unnamed sources but you better trust the journalists and the organizations
00:48:30.860 above them uh which nobody does now but what i was concerned about is if we are really just going
00:48:38.580 to start to accept unnamed sources things like she just did no one's going to survive only the person
00:48:47.780 with the loudest megaphone and the biggest number of mob members behind them will be able to survive
00:48:54.380 look it's reached critical mass and everybody knows it and by the way back um did you listen
00:49:00.660 to that podcast before or after you're on your knees thinking that i was on your program today
00:49:07.320 uh during during yeah i'm like dear baby jesus help me with one ear uh listen to the podcast from the
00:49:14.520 new york times and the and the other side of my mouth thank you for bill o'reilly okay so i think that
00:49:21.140 everybody in america who's fair-minded which i would put it about 50 percent of the population
00:49:26.560 um understands now that if you are in politics if you have any political sway or influence that you
00:49:38.240 are going to be accused it's a matter of when not if and you're going to be accused most likely of
00:49:45.240 misconduct okay now it doesn't matter whether there's any truth to it
00:49:50.880 it doesn't matter um what it is it's going to hit you and hurt you the extent of the harm i think is
00:50:00.160 going to decline because now people are going every blank and day we see another headline about another
00:50:07.520 person usually a man in power who's accused of misconduct in the law in the long run this hurts
00:50:16.360 anybody who is actually being hurt by somebody powerful this whole movement is so misguided and
00:50:23.720 such a witch hunt and in in empowered for political purposes the whole movement is not a witch hunt but
00:50:31.200 there are elements of it that have been i think the movement the the the idea wait a minute stew
00:50:36.980 hold on yeah have you seen any call from the quote-unquote movement for due process yeah i haven't i mean
00:50:46.100 i certainly there's been calls for harvey weinstein to be prosecuted for his crimes but i don't think
00:50:50.660 that's is that the movement that's that's regular people i think that might say law enforcement okay
00:50:57.860 that's a different situation that's not an anonymous letter handed to a politician i guess leaks it to
00:51:06.060 the press right i guess if you're saying that um people who might hashtag me too uh because they want
00:51:13.400 this to stop and they think that the bad guys should go to jail or pay a price for it if that's what you
00:51:19.460 would consider the movement but i look at the movement like the people who are at the very top of black
00:51:24.140 lives matter they are not the same people necessarily that are marching in the streets
00:51:28.780 their goals and the goals of the people marching in the streets are a lot different uh bill o'reilly
00:51:33.700 we're going to come back with you and something something that uh ruth bader ginsburg said this
00:51:38.440 week in an interview that i think i think is stunning um and i would like you to hear your comments on
00:51:44.480 that coming up in just a second first let me tell you about filter by new study just came out said air
00:51:49.660 pollution causes huge reduction in intelligence so what are you gonna do what are you gonna do high
00:51:56.640 pollution levels led to significant drops in test scores with language and arithmetic the average uh
00:52:03.260 impact equivalent to having lost an entire year the average is like losing an entire year of education
00:52:11.620 i was up at the ranch which is up in the mountains um recently a couple of weeks ago and
00:52:17.480 i couldn't see the mountain that is literally across the street now that's that foothill is maybe
00:52:25.300 i don't know mile and a half away maybe maybe i couldn't see it people who live in the area all
00:52:33.100 the time live their whole lives have never seen that before uh and it was it was astounding and it was

00:53:26.060 welcome back to the uh program with uh mr uh mr bill o'reilly um bill let me play a piece of audio from
00:53:39.560 uh ruth bader ginsburg she's being interviewed on stage and she's asked about the process that we're
00:53:45.920 going through with kavanaugh listen to this how would you compare the process that you went through
00:53:50.760 with what's going on today in that process the way it was was right the way it is is wrong the atmosphere
00:54:05.000 in 93 it was truly bipartisan the vote on my confirmation was 96 to 3
00:54:19.340 even though i had spent about 10 years of my life litigating cases under the auspices of the
00:54:31.000 aclu board aclu and i was on the aclu board and one of their general counsel but that's the way
00:54:40.200 it should be okay stop bill here she is saying you know the republicans let me pass even though i was on
00:54:51.200 the aclu board and i was litigating uh things for the aclu they would never the democrats would go
00:55:01.280 crazy now if if any candidate had done anything for even the heritage foundation what does this tell
00:55:10.300 you about what she just said well you know i'm of two minds on this i think uh the justice is being
00:55:19.500 honest and describing what happened to her and then what's happening now uh i think the three
00:55:26.820 people who voted against her in the senate were probably right i mean ruth bader ginsburg has done
00:55:33.300 a lot of damage to the country and she admits that she is not um looking to uphold the constitution that
00:55:43.200 she believes the constitution is evolving correct so therefore she can vote on whatever her politics
00:55:49.420 are so here's the but here's the problem isn't it that everyone is they want somebody on their side
00:55:56.520 a judge should right a judge should be selected because the constitution or the rule of law
00:56:03.760 is is the side that they're on i mean if we if we had people that were deciding things
00:56:10.500 on the constitution based on the constitution um the world would be a much different place and we
00:56:17.600 could advise and consent but nobody's looking to the constitution as is basis they're looking at
00:56:22.680 policies but that's never going to happen again in america so what's the cliche the genies left the
00:56:29.840 bottle the horses out of the barn um then shouldn't we have then shouldn't it's not going to happen
00:56:36.100 okay then shouldn't we have a entirely shouldn't we have an entirely different conversation then
00:56:42.240 about what what what we want going forward because there's no we anymore it's them versus us look
00:56:51.640 they're look at the sanctuary cities policy okay so these people get elected and they're sworn to
00:56:58.760 uphold the constitution correct the mayors and the governors and all these people i'm gonna they raise
00:57:04.820 their hand i'm gonna okay all the constitution all right well let's pick this up let's pick this up
00:57:09.040 when we come back we have just a couple of seconds when we come back pick it up there
00:57:12.180 you're listening to the glenn back program so we started this conversation with bill o'reilly a few
00:57:20.960 minutes ago where um you know he said that it's just not going to happen to where we're going to
00:57:26.320 advise and consent anymore we're not gonna we're not gonna find those people who are um who are
00:57:32.920 you know just wanting to read the constitution as as it was written uh because we're we're too
00:57:40.460 highly divided now and we're we've politicized all this do i have that right bill yes and the best
00:57:46.380 example of sanctuary cities the mayors and the governors take an oath uh upon their swearing in
00:57:52.780 i'll uphold the constitution the constitution says that you follow federal state and local law if
00:57:59.140 you're a citizen this is your duty as a citizen and all of a sudden the governors and mayors say no
00:58:05.100 we're not going to follow federal law on immigration we're going to do what we want correct
00:58:08.840 so when you reach a point and that is an extreme point people should understand it been mainstream by
00:58:16.020 the media but it isn't mainstream okay this is basically repudiating the law of the land and
00:58:22.780 embracing anarchy once you reach that point where it's acceptable for public servants whether they're
00:58:29.200 judges or elected officials to discard the constitution at will then you have what you have now where
00:58:38.280 nothing matters other than my politics okay so you said we're not going back there we're not going
00:58:43.280 back to no it's not going to happen so then this is an honest question this is an honest question
00:58:48.920 right now we're in a world where if you if we're all being honest with each other the left the
00:58:55.580 democrats they were not voting for hillary most of them were voting against trump and most of the
00:59:02.380 people that voted for trump were voting against hillary it's not what they were for it was what they
00:59:07.740 were against and we are now entering a time where we are so afraid of my side being silenced that i will
00:59:15.600 vote for someone that will silence them instead that's not good am i just am i am i wasting my breath
00:59:24.480 in my you know i think there are americans who are genuinely enthusiastic about liberal causes in the
00:59:29.460 democratic party and vice versa traditional causes in the and the republican party i think there are but
00:59:36.920 the fear that we're going to be a socialist country does drive a lot of people to vote for donald trump
00:59:43.440 and republicans there's no doubt about right and it's not it and it's it's not it's it's not an
00:59:48.460 unbased fear when no you have candidates who last night new york and i'd love to touch base with you on
00:59:54.080 this you know are socialists they're declared socialists and there's a difference between somebody
00:59:59.920 who wants a welfare state and somebody who wants socialism i mean even the the the president what was
01:00:05.800 it denmark uh i think came over to the united states and said i just want you to know bernie sanders
01:00:11.160 keep saying we're a socialist country we're not we're a capitalist country that has a lot of welfare
01:00:16.760 that's different so i i get that but i just want to ask you again this one last question because i feel
01:00:24.160 like you're saying to me glenn it's not coming back well if it's not coming back then i'm wasting my time
01:00:30.340 fighting for something that means nothing to anyone i believe in the constitution and the bill of rights
01:00:37.580 i believe once we are somehow or another reminded that that's what stops all of this nonsense
01:00:43.940 we'll return but if we're not returning then we should have a different discussion and that is
01:00:48.760 okay socialism or what well there are politicians and there are people in the judiciary i.e. judges
01:01:00.420 who will uphold the constitution back i was told i was told by someone that you're whose name you would
01:01:08.240 know in congress uh just in the last few weeks and they said to me glenn i can count the number of
01:01:15.460 people in washington in power that actually believe in the bill of rights and the constitution
01:01:21.300 i'm not that cynical i i think there are people who do believe it and those are the people that you
01:01:28.640 have to vote for and and and you have to promote what their policies are if you believe the person
01:01:35.920 sincere but when when you see how cynthia nixon and i'll remind everybody that she played nancy
01:01:44.420 reagan in my movie killing reagan i know the woman for a little bit how insane insane her policies are
01:01:55.160 they're not misguided they're not wrong they're insane they would destroy the state of new york
01:02:04.740 okay 35 of the democratic party voted for her because a they don't know anything and b they'd like to
01:02:16.360 destroy the state they want to destroy the country may i try wait wait may i may i translate and see if
01:02:23.780 this is a fair translation they don't let me rephrase it and if it's not fair tell me so
01:02:30.760 when you say something like that if i'm a democrat i'm like you know what they don't want to destroy
01:02:36.260 new york they live in new york so rephrasing they um they are looking at her policies and they think
01:02:45.100 that these are going to work and in my opinion they're completely uninformed because we have a long
01:02:51.720 list of history that shows they don't work and uh they don't think that what's happening now
01:02:58.640 is working wrong beck okay why the money democrats voted for cuomo 65 the people with assets the people
01:03:11.260 who have very expensive apartments in manhattan and cars and jobs did not vote for nixon but 35
01:03:20.660 percent of people who live in new york city don't have anything they live in rent control they live
01:03:28.360 in public housing they barely get by right and they don't think that this blow it all because they
01:03:34.580 don't think that this system is working right because no one is telling them and showing them
01:03:40.400 that it is but they just think it's not working so it's not that they i don't think the average trump
01:03:46.620 voter when he says i want to burn the system down he doesn't mean i don't want to live in america
01:03:52.320 anymore he means this what's happening in washington dc is not working now i'd like to
01:04:00.340 but it's not the same thing i mean one is uh real life and and trying to get by uh and support your
01:04:08.300 family and put food on the table and the other is theoretical we don't want a pc nation
01:04:13.260 we don't want these politicians who lie to us um we want a much more uh in your face situation where
01:04:21.340 we know uh if trump says he's going to do something he'll do it so it's different but what i'm trying
01:04:27.920 to get across to you is that the gulf is so huge between glenn beck bill o'reilly stew people have
01:04:36.540 actually worked hard got an education tried very hard in the marketplace to succeed and have
01:04:44.940 had um actually gotten some success in a system of cap of capitalism no but wait a minute in a system
01:04:53.160 in a system of capital in a system of capitalism where quite honestly um it was stacked against us
01:04:59.980 i mean i would be much more anybody feeling sorry for me i can't no i'm not asking for that i'm not
01:05:05.760 asking for that i'm just saying we do know what it's like to be in we had to overcome we yes yeah
01:05:14.140 i mean not i don't use that phrase but yes but there's but there's a cadre and it comes out of
01:05:21.300 the university system in high schools and embraced by the media of victimization the mob okay that they
01:05:30.340 tell you you can't make it white privilege okay you're never going to succeed no matter what you
01:05:36.220 do this is the victimization movement and that's what you're seeing with cynthia nixon and bernie
01:05:43.360 sanders they're they're trying to whip up this victimization that we'll we'll give stuff to you
01:05:51.160 because you can't earn it no matter what you do right it's an unfair system all right that's the gulf
01:05:57.740 that's what we're seeing you wrote a uh you wrote an op-ed uh today about evil and i'm going to talk
01:06:03.620 to you about this because it does revolve around your book a bit um and you're saying that it's it's uh
01:06:09.420 you know people historically don't stand up against evil um and i think i think there is a chance
01:06:19.160 that people stand up against evil um but we have to be very very careful on encouraging them to do so
01:06:26.540 because we can push them into the arms of evil really easily and i think that's happening right
01:06:32.360 now um there are two aspects of my vantage point on evil and and you were right it comes off writing
01:06:38.140 killing the ss and then one of the shocking things about that book is that the concentration camp guards
01:06:44.060 of nazi germany were merchants and farmers and bankers and you know they the average person yeah
01:06:51.420 they were just people before the war was walking down the street and all of a sudden they're killing
01:06:55.420 babies and walking away having dinner all right you need to read that you need to absorb it because
01:07:00.560 there's evil in every human being every single human being has a capacity for evil and you have
01:07:07.080 to recognize it and you have to fight against it now externally we're living in a country now where we
01:07:13.500 have mass killings in high schools we have thousands of poor black people being shot in the streets in
01:07:20.120 chicago we have clergy molesting children what do you think that is evil that's evil all right and on
01:07:27.840 a much lesser basis but something visible we have betrayal of of human beings by their spouses
01:07:35.880 we have the media trying to tear people apart for ideological reasons we have a justice system that
01:07:44.440 doesn't render justice many times all of this is evil and we're not seeing politicians say you know
01:07:51.360 what we got to really get the chicago situation under control have you seen anybody do that no no no and
01:07:59.680 and and i'm sitting there going how much evil do you have to see before you mobilize against it and
01:08:06.140 that's why i wrote this killing the ss because germany before world war ii is not different than the
01:08:13.360 united states in 2018 no it's really not it's the same people doing the same things to try to
01:08:21.580 struggle to make a living in an atmosphere that was increasingly difficult and what did they do
01:08:28.640 they surrendered en masse to evil and you need to know what happened there because it could certainly
01:08:36.020 happen here and is happening to some extent this holocaust that we're seeing in chicago
01:08:42.200 this bothers me to the core of my being we're letting poor blacks who are on who are defenseless
01:08:50.720 okay and we don't do anything about it where's the national guard why aren't they on the streets
01:08:57.300 of chicago stopping the 150 shootings every weekend why they could be there but they're not there
01:09:07.340 who gives a damn about them no one that's evil bill o'reilly it is always good to talk to you
01:09:14.640 we'll um talk to you again next week you can find bill o'reilly at billoreilly.com billoreilly.com

01:09:42.520 interesting you're talking about the supreme court and how you know bill was saying it will
01:09:50.840 never go back uh and it feels certainly feels that way we should also though recognize how recent a
01:09:56.500 phenomenon this is i mean as ruth bader ginsburg pointed out she was confirmed 97 or what was it
01:10:02.860 uh 96 to 3 3 uh then briar was 87 to 9 then john roberts 78 22 sam alito 58 42 sota mayor now this
01:10:15.700 is under obama sota mayor 68 31 uh elena kagan 63 37 and then finally gorsuch at 54 and kavanaugh
01:10:25.600 question mark he'll be lucky to get to 50 or 51 it's amazing it's it's not a recent thing it's a
01:10:30.760 trump thing it does it's a trump thing and it's a garland thing i think they think they're so they
01:10:35.280 got so ripped off by the garland thing which we've covered before is not is not true but still

01:13:56.440 glenn back is coming live to talk about the right path forward and to make fun of the people standing
01:14:03.260 in the way he might not be able to save the country but at least we can all go down laughing
01:14:07.320 glenn back live the addicted to outrage tour on tour this fall glenn back somewhere in a dark newsroom
01:14:18.160 an age-old editor is levitating eyes glowing like radioactive soil because an unprecedented event
01:14:27.900 has taken place right in front of our eyes a puzzling miracle something not seen in journalism in years
01:14:36.300 the associated press has criticized obama i whisper his name because out of out of reverence
01:14:48.920 the ap guard has turned against their wizard leader the army has mutinied against their commander
01:14:58.460 the ap has always loved obama they had a crush on him more of an obsession really they've always
01:15:08.220 stored up their animus and directed it at one person anybody on the right but now donald trump
01:15:16.120 well trump and everyone around him uh you know they're you know they go as so far to even
01:15:22.020 mock you know first lady melania's hat on one occasion insulted her fashion her appearance while all you
01:15:30.520 know joining in on the championing of uh social justice immigration and women's rights but that's
01:15:35.660 another conversation for another day the article's title quote ap fact check obama doesn't always tell
01:15:45.980 the straight story and quote quote wait what i mean i've gotten used to reading the headlines you know
01:15:55.900 ap fact check trump ruins america or ap fact check reality star embarrasses country or ap fact check
01:16:01.700 orange man bad but here's the opening line of the article former president barack obama recent
01:16:09.180 denunciation of president donald trump's treatment of the press overlooks the aggressive steps
01:16:15.860 the justice department took to keep information from the public during his administration
01:16:21.620 what is happening i i feel like a wormhole is opened up and all of us we've we've appeared in yet
01:16:32.560 another parallel universe obama quoting obama also made a problematic claim that republicans
01:16:40.440 is sabotage and that has cost three million people their health insurance end quote then they break
01:16:48.540 down all the lies that obama committed again quick check check the ap story before it's sucked back
01:16:58.460 into another vortex or another universe quote obama it shouldn't be democrat or republican to say that we
01:17:10.080 don't threaten the freedom of the press because they say things or publish stories we don't like
01:17:14.680 i complained plenty about fox news but you never heard me threaten to shut them down or call them
01:17:19.840 enemies of the people end quote rally friday university of illinois the facts according to the ap the facts
01:17:28.060 trump may have used extraordinary rhetoric to undermine trust in the press but obama arguably arguably went
01:17:35.940 further using extraordinary actions to block the flow of public information to the public
01:17:43.580 wait hold it wait i again are stew are you reading that right are you reading that you're reading it
01:17:54.440 with me are you not but maybe i don't understand this is this can't be happening are you married to lisa
01:18:00.440 in this universe uh oh yeah still wow okay that's that one is well then you traveled you traveled with
01:18:06.300 me so i don't know what universe this is they just said obama went farther than trump in undermining the
01:18:14.720 press overall dare i say great thing a sign the ap might even be trying to regain some of its ability
01:18:24.300 to do actual journalism but i'm i mean i don't like to throw the word trauma around but i think i might have
01:18:31.980 some sort of shock that i'm in i mean they actually said that obama's rhetoric to the press was worse
01:18:39.860 than trump's is because he took action oh crap
01:18:44.800 is this the last day on earth is jesus coming today
01:18:51.180 because i think i think the ap turning on obama and saying no no trump is bad but did you see what
01:19:00.360 this guy did i think i hear the hoof beats of the four horsemen of the apocalypse
01:19:06.240 it's friday september 14th this is the glenbeck program
01:19:14.260 can we have an adult conversation here for a second
01:19:20.520 um and that means that we're going to have one that is going to be filled with some puzzlement and
01:19:28.580 some conjecture and some uh worries that are not provable and not even they're they're just
01:19:38.240 they're they're human beings meeting together trying to figure out what the hell happened did
01:19:45.200 you see what happened in in andover uh massachusetts yesterday the fire the explosions yeah that was
01:19:53.240 very strange why what what what is that there were 70 fires and explosions yesterday 70 they were all
01:20:06.020 all part apparently we still don't know but apparently they were all something to do with
01:20:11.900 the gas lines so if your house was on this gas line um it just blew up and over a thousand people
01:20:21.080 in this area had to get out and there's it was um it was merrimack valley which has i think three
01:20:27.780 towns in it lawrence and over and north and over uh one person died in a chimney uh from a house
01:20:35.920 explosion um and it wasn't he wasn't in the chimney the chimney fell blew out and fell on his car and he
01:20:44.360 was in the car uh there are 20 people in the hospital one is in critical condition i'm just
01:20:51.060 looking here uh one is in serious condition uh 10 people have uh are being treated for um for shock
01:21:00.780 and and trauma because of the explosion but they don't know what caused it they had to depressurize
01:21:08.460 all of the lines and clear all the lines of gas and that's that's what stopped it but they're still
01:21:13.060 working on the fires today 70 now that i mean we have to find out what happened there uh and obviously
01:21:25.100 they will but this is the kind of thing i am not saying this is what happened but this is the kind of
01:21:36.920 thing that should wake us up to the kind of attacks that i think can be done in cyber warfare
01:21:45.760 i don't know if these gas lines were connected to the internet but this is the kind of thing that
01:21:54.320 can happen when somebody hijacks uh uh you know a utility they can make these things happen i am not
01:22:03.280 saying that's what did no but you're yeah right i mean they've talked about attacks on infrastructure
01:22:08.520 through cyber means for a long time correct and this is the way it would manifest itself this could
01:22:14.580 just have been some i don't know what they don't know what and i'm sure they will find out but this
01:22:19.800 is the kind of thing that you have to mentally understand this is the kind of if we go into into war
01:22:29.760 god forbid war has always been fought someplace else but vladimir putin said the next war world war
01:22:37.440 three and he has claimed we are already in it um he said the next war will be fought with ones and zeros
01:22:44.540 and that's the way it manifests itself now imagine that happening all over the country
01:22:50.700 i mean how do you how do you survive i mean that's if you could do that in in places
01:22:59.520 all over the country holy cow i will say to vladimir that it can't be the next war if we're already in
01:23:08.500 it well i then it's the next the war after this you tell vlad got it got it vlad i will transmit
01:23:15.460 that to vladimir when i have an opportunity after the election that's very good yeah it's it's scary
01:23:20.960 and it's um you know there's been a lot of talk about this uh recently uh they actually go through
01:23:26.700 some of this in the woodward book as well uh on the on cyber attacks and how that's manifested itself
01:23:33.900 and whether you know the the u.s has flirted with the idea over the past few years uh to
01:23:39.620 to use cyber attacks against uh you know uh north korea and and other regimes to iran was another
01:23:50.660 to try to show that we have those capabilities uh without starting a massive new war correct and
01:23:58.440 it's a it's a tough line because you know those things they are real uh you know that's real
01:24:04.920 warfare and they're trying to now kind of come with it come up with a policy and this has happened
01:24:09.900 through the end of obama and the beginning of trump's administration as to how to treat those
01:24:14.380 things because do we treat a a cyber attack from north korea as if they bombed us and you might
01:24:21.560 think off the top of your head well no i mean it's a cyber attack i mean you know maybe we respond in
01:24:26.460 kind but as you point out here these cyber attacks can lead to real people dying this isn't always just
01:24:33.040 a massive cyber attack yeah if a massive cyber attack happened on the united states of america
01:24:38.840 more massive more people would die than from the bombs that we dropped i mean you could you could
01:24:46.940 shut down power uh for a very long time use an emp you could shut it down for a year plus but you
01:24:56.500 could shut down power you could shut down um any kind of any kind of power or communication in areas
01:25:02.680 in a snowstorm or or a heat wave i mean you could shut down uh you know medical centers what what
01:25:12.140 happens if you could shut down the eastern seaboard how many people would die what kind of chaos would
01:25:17.680 happen we saw a little example of this with puerto rico right i mean they lost power they just got it
01:25:23.120 back full over the full island last month i believe it was it's been a year um and you know the estimates
01:25:30.340 are about 3 000 people died and and by the way and trump took a lot of heat for his tweeting about
01:25:36.260 um you know the the amount of people who died and i don't of course i don't know exactly what you know
01:25:41.480 what he thinks happened but it is a very strange process that gets us to that number this is not
01:25:47.080 a number of like hey here's a bunch of people who got crushed by trees here are their births their
01:25:52.140 death certificates that's how many people we have that's how if it happened in iowa right that is
01:25:57.660 exactly how we would know the names of everybody their names we would be able to count them when
01:26:02.580 people die you individually count how many there are right and you might say that there's you might
01:26:07.320 say there's you know missing right you might say missing for a while but like in the liberian civil
01:26:12.740 war we might estimate how many people have died because it's all you know in darfur we might have
01:26:18.260 to estimate nobody has paperwork in iowa you don't do that right like these are american citizens the
01:26:23.960 way they found out the number of people who died is they the government came up with an uh
01:26:29.460 got an independent study done to calculate the estimated excess deaths that occurred on the island
01:26:37.580 in the time period following the hurricane so they didn't get a bunch of like here's a bunch of death
01:26:42.160 certificates they instead have a estimate i mean this is the last line of the new york times story about
01:26:48.700 how they came up with this number the actual number of excess deaths again not deaths caused by the
01:26:53.560 hurricane but they're just estimating how many people should have died in puerto rico from other
01:26:57.340 causes and then adding they're saying the number went over that by 3000 and saying well that they
01:27:02.020 must have died from the hurricane and it goes like this the actual number of excess deaths was
01:27:06.760 statistically estimated to be in the range of 2658 to 3290 so they can't come they can't get it
01:27:16.740 narrowed down to six or seven hundred different people this is these are u.s citizens we're talking
01:27:23.220 about this best at best you could say look they're just getting their power back etc etc and it could
01:27:29.620 be these numbers it could be a lot less yeah imagine if we said you know how many people died in the
01:27:35.900 world trade center initially we thought it was going to be could be 20 or 30 000 right right i mean and
01:27:41.900 then we instead we just said how many people in new york over this time period what should have died
01:27:49.280 yeah should have died and how many did die right and it's a little higher so we'll assume all those
01:27:54.060 people died in the world trade center that's insane yeah that's insane it might be a good way to start
01:27:58.880 if you have nothing else but you should follow that up with but the number is truly unknown and until they
01:28:05.220 get back on their feet and people are like whatever happened to uncle bill yeah then you can count them
01:28:12.380 that's incredible that that's possible in the united states it's really nuts and people don't think of
01:28:17.800 puerto rico as the united states they vote they pay taxes they are part of the united states it's it's obscene
01:28:27.560 that uh this has been going on this long we have 7 000 troops ready to go in north carolina and south
01:28:36.480 carolina right now 7 000 troops have been ready to go in
01:28:40.520 puerto rico how many how many troops were there for how long and would any of us have accepted
01:28:50.220 that north carolina just didn't have power for a year no way no way all right i want to share some

01:30:19.700 september 18th pre-order it now at amazon.com
01:30:23.080 okay look can we talk a little bit about uh the latest scandal now finally finally yeah we're trying
01:30:33.500 we've been trying to hide it yep we've been trying to hide it all day but we can't do it anymore
01:30:36.680 uh nikki haley big trump administration scandal the new york times nailed her uh nikki haley's view of
01:30:42.260 new york is priceless her curtains 52,701 dollars for curtains do we know how curtains do we know how big
01:30:53.280 the windows were does it even matter well well does it matter well well a if they were you know
01:30:59.880 three block long curtains probably that's a good deal um if they were in her house or her office
01:31:05.840 it's in her residence okay residence for the u.s ambassador yeah so it's in the ambassador's
01:31:13.320 residence yes so in other words the place where the leaders from all around the world come oh i see
01:31:20.080 where you're going you're trying to justify this you you know what yeah i didn't justify i didn't
01:31:24.460 justify you know uh ben carson's you know i don't remember what it was twenty thousand dollar dining
01:31:29.520 table he's a government official working in a government building you're not bringing in the
01:31:34.020 world you're not bringing you got a bunch of government people working around the table you
01:31:37.160 can have a card table far as i'm concerned stop however the ambassador is like the ambassador's
01:31:43.760 residence is a little like the oval office i don't care if you go a little crazy on decorating that
01:31:49.200 you're projecting something you can't get five thousand dollar curtains though nicky i mean you
01:31:54.460 can't get a thousand dollars on curtains that's not enough for you fifty two thousand dollars
01:31:59.520 you ever purchased anything in new york well sandwiches are about fifty two thousand dollars
01:32:03.880 but yes i have i know it's expensive right but let's be honest that's ridiculous and thank god
01:32:09.180 the new york times is there to step in and say hey nicky that's too much money we're calling
01:32:15.520 nicky haley out on that fifty two thousand dollar expenditure good job new york times and i see that
01:32:21.420 some other people are getting on this now too uh jake tapper has tweeted about this oh boy uh and he
01:32:27.240 notes in the sixth paragraph of that new york times story uh a spokesman for miss haley now having to
01:32:33.300 now having to answer for this you know uh said plans to buy the curtains were made
01:32:38.740 in 2016 during the obama administration miss haley had no say in the purchase
01:32:48.560 elaborating a source said tell cnn it was decided well before the election in 2016 that the u.s
01:32:55.480 ambassadors residents would move from the waldorf to its new location the new location was unfurnished
01:33:00.160 and unfinished in june of 2016 it was decided that the state department's bureau of overseas buildings
01:33:05.040 operations would outfit the new residents this is standard operating procedure for ambassadors
01:33:09.920 residences across the globe in july of 2016 the first site visit was complete and they chose those
01:33:16.080 curtains into in the summer of 2016 you might notice that being before the election of donald trump
01:33:20.660 also uh standard standard operation operating procedure they do not personalize residences to
01:33:27.360 individual ambassadors tastes this isn't about blaming obama and some and power who was the uh
01:33:33.140 ambassador at the time it's standard operating procedure for outfitting ambassadors residences
01:33:38.900 the outfitting of this residence had started happened to start in 2016 but uh ambassador haley had no
01:33:45.140 choice in the location or of the residence or what curtains were picked up so you know what's really
01:33:49.300 interesting is jake tapper just you know says wait a minute hang on just a second read the sixth
01:33:55.300 paragraph in the sixth paragraph it says all of that and yet the headline of the new york uh times
01:34:01.840 this is the only thing people read usually is uh look at how bad nikki haley is awful unbelievable
01:34:08.460 this weekend the podcast continues a um a um an exclusive interview with uh robert spencer robert spencer
01:34:22.500 is a guy who wrote the history of jihad he is being deplatformed and not just by um tech but now by
01:34:30.700 finance he's a scholar uh and if you disagree with him present facts and and show him wrong um he is
01:34:39.080 you know he has advised administrations in the past he is a leading scholar on uh radicalized um
01:34:47.400 islam and jihad mastercard has come out and said any business that has anything to do with him we will
01:34:56.340 not honor our you know we will do no banking services for anything around him and that's pretty frightening
01:35:04.720 that's pretty frightening i want you to hear what this guy has to say before you can't hear it anymore
01:35:11.660 i want you i i and i mean this sincerely begin to burn things to dvd begin to burn interviews like this
01:35:23.800 to dvd because i'm not sure that it will be available online i'm not sure it will will be allowed to do
01:35:32.440 these things in the future the world has changed and there's no hyperbole here you can see it
01:35:39.820 burn these to cd or dvd uh and keep them and you know i read almost everything on kindle i decided this
01:35:50.240 week i'm not going to do that anymore i may write i may read them on kindle but i am buying any book
01:35:55.820 that i think is important because i don't think i i think there is a possibility books just disappear
01:36:05.800 you know 10 years down the road eight years down the road can you tell me would you have predicted
01:36:10.820 we're at where we're at now eight years ago i even i tried to tell you things were going to be
01:36:18.740 different but i couldn't tell you exactly how it was going to happen what it looks like i we are
01:36:24.460 entering a very different age so please sign up for the podcast you can stitcher you know um uh
01:36:32.320 itunes wherever you listen to your podcast please listen to the podcast we ask that you would rate it
01:36:38.160 and review it that is really important because it helps other people discover it uh the robert spencer
01:36:45.200 podcast comes out tomorrow it is uninterrupted and fascinating especially for uh the week of 9 11
01:36:52.780 welcome to pat gray hi pat glenn good to see you good to see you i can see it i can see it in your
01:36:58.720 eyes seething it's seething outrage on something today i you know what i i thought i was the only
01:37:05.380 one who was confused about this uh puerto rican death toll number that that trump said is not accurate
01:37:12.380 it's not true it very well may not be uh and so i was glad to hear you guys saying that it was
01:37:19.060 confusing and not conclusive too they came up with a number of 3 000 from a george washington
01:37:25.500 university study they they're guessing really they just found death tolls or the number of people who
01:37:33.380 died before in puerto rico in non-disaster years and it was about 3 000 more this time so they just
01:37:38.860 attributed them all to the storm and they don't know that for a fact that's a good first start right
01:37:43.700 but that's not something that you say that's how many people and die on your sword over and they're
01:37:49.160 acting like he is denying science or something that's not a scientific number right it's a guess
01:37:55.240 it's a guess yeah now it's i mean it might it might be higher it might be higher it might be
01:38:00.420 considerably lower could be we don't know but cnn is attacking him as if it were hardcore fact
01:38:06.600 like they found a pile of 3 000 bodies they didn't that's not how it worked yeah i mean it seems like
01:38:13.660 this study is our current best guess is probably the best way to put it like i mean it's and look
01:38:19.120 they did they did do what you know they did in a science listen to the listen to the process here
01:38:23.600 our excess mortality study analyzed past mortality patterns in order to predict the expected mortality
01:38:30.780 if hurricane maria had not occurred and compare this figure to the actual deaths that occurred
01:38:36.460 they're just guessing at the at the they don't even the new number they don't even they didn't
01:38:41.180 even use last year that's amazing predicting they're predicting what it would have been this year oh my
01:38:46.460 gosh yeah and then it says oh my gosh that makes it even worse i didn't know it was a predicted number
01:38:50.480 yeah the difference between those two numbers is the estimate of excess mortality okay which would
01:38:55.880 be fine if you say and this is our best guess estimate at this time and this happened a couple of
01:39:03.160 months ago a different study came out with it with a relatively similar number uh it was over 2000
01:39:09.020 i believe uh and that one was not treated like this one is and that one was like okay here's our first
01:39:15.700 kind of the first kind of look at it this one's just like absolute fact and we know i can with 100
01:39:20.560 certainty tell you it is not the uh is not absolute fact because as the uh actual as the new york
01:39:27.500 times story uh points out the actual number of excess deaths was statistically estimated to be in the
01:39:34.540 range of 2658 to 33 290 so they have they only have an estimate of 700 or so whereas they think
01:39:45.560 it's somewhere in the middle of it and they're highlighting this 2975 number now look i do think
01:39:51.200 it's likely to be and we've kind of all said this since the beginning it's likely to be higher than
01:39:56.300 whatever it was 60 or 66 you have to that was you know think of the people who didn't have
01:40:01.460 electricity think of the number of people who just died because they couldn't get insulin
01:40:06.580 yeah i mean they didn't have the numbers and you know yeah contamination and diseases people
01:40:13.100 may have picked up and i mean the number is going to be huge but can we can we just stop
01:40:19.140 with this i know the answer and anyone who said i mean it's crazy you know what it reminds me of is
01:40:27.120 hitler i wasn't gonna go quite there inquisition something slightly more recent mccarthyism no uh
01:40:35.540 it's more recent than that even uh the nine-year-old who came up with the statistic on straws yeah oh gosh
01:40:41.320 that was really he called a couple of companies and they threw out numbers to him and that became
01:40:45.680 hardcore fact yeah yeah it's true or like the giant 500 million or billion or whatever it was
01:40:51.420 or the giant garbage pile in the middle of the ocean garbage pile that does not exist right it's
01:40:55.280 not a real thing listen to this this is amazing the the proposed next phase of the george washington
01:41:00.020 study will examine the death certificates that's the next phase they haven't done this yet the next
01:41:05.860 phase will examine the death certificates recorded in the months after the hurricane can you believe
01:41:09.440 they didn't do that yet right i can't believe you haven't done that how could you release the
01:41:13.880 information well until you've done that and again i i tend to place less blame on george washington here
01:41:21.380 than the media because the media is the one saying this is a hardcore fact right um you know listen to
01:41:27.360 this they will look at the uh death certificates and then then they will try quote try to determine
01:41:34.100 through interviews with family members and others whether individual deaths should be attributed
01:41:39.320 to the storm and the thing is they haven't done that yet everybody assumes that's how they came to
01:41:43.660 the number you know they either found them or these people were missing and they went to the families
01:41:47.880 and they died uh this uh right wing site nytimes.com okay that's what i thought well it's interesting
01:41:53.380 listen to this last two paragraphs by the way to point out in the sense see it is last two it's crazy
01:41:58.900 it's it's amazing the new york times gets a bad rap as they don't report anything they don't report
01:42:06.220 the news no they do now they always put it at the bottom all of the facts that change the the whole
01:42:16.060 narrative are at the bottom they miss they they they lead people astray with their headlines but
01:42:23.900 all of the facts are there yeah whose fault is that yeah it's our fault because we don't read the
01:42:30.680 damn story and then we say new york times didn't report the facts they got the facts wrong and the new
01:42:35.800 york times can actually say we're not fake news we reported that and they did they buried they
01:42:42.180 buried it they give you a misleading headline um and then they stay silent you know when it is in
01:42:48.900 their favor to you know bash trump but they still did report the facts yeah and they do i mean look they
01:42:55.780 do some you know new york times does some amazing work some of it is because they have resources that
01:43:00.900 nobody else has i mean they're they're reporting on the vegas shooting uh some of the stuff they did
01:43:05.740 for that was incredible i mean like they pieced together hundreds of cameras and pieces of audio
01:43:11.540 to walk through that timeline it's incredible reporting they do they just blow it a lot like
01:43:16.840 the nikki haley thing we just talked about where you know if you know our curtains but it was actually
01:43:21.200 in the obama administration and actually even the obama administration had no specific control
01:43:25.100 but it was in there but it was in paragraph six right but it was in there but the headline said
01:43:31.840 nikki haley's got 53 000 curtains look at her nice view right and it's like all right that's just a
01:43:36.820 terrible so that gets shared the headline gets shared wow and they get what they want out of it
01:43:41.020 but they did actually report it in there so it's not fake news the reporter can say i'm not lying
01:43:47.520 even though they buried it it's the headline that is misleading but they can honestly say
01:43:55.080 i'm not lying to you i'm telling you and i did and i had those facts in the story and when those
01:44:00.520 facts are in the story it becomes a non-story that's not even a story anymore no it's not so
01:44:04.940 the whole thing is ridiculous no that they even put that in the paper it is here's the headline
01:44:10.060 government out of control 52 000 curtains in new ambassadors residents right okay that's the story
01:44:19.300 because it's it's really not i mean 52 000 for the ambassador where you're bringing people in and
01:44:25.060 heads of state and everything else and it's not for it was done by one administration it'll be done
01:44:30.860 again by the next administration um that's not really a story i think the the argument is should
01:44:38.900 should we be spending that to project power for our ambassador in new york city or not
01:44:45.560 that's that's a fair that's a fair question that's a fair question but you don't pin that on nikki
01:44:50.400 haley no no that's incredible but again you see you see where the split is by us claiming fake news
01:45:00.100 for two stories that cover the facts albeit again i grant you buried buried this buried the story you
01:45:08.940 know buried the actual facts that exonerate they were still in there by saying this is fake news they
01:45:16.080 never report the facts the people who actually do read the stories all the way and when you read when
01:45:22.860 you subscribe to the new york times many times at least i do you read the whole story and when you're
01:45:29.980 reading the whole story you're like no they've got all of that in there which discredits us instead of
01:45:35.360 discrediting them because we're arguing something that isn't true we should be arguing the skewing of the
01:45:42.580 news not the reporting of falsehoods and you know look the the times is the bigger uh problem here
01:45:49.100 than us right like they they have made that this is a the a legitimate mistake uh at the very least
01:45:55.860 and i think worse than that with that headline about nikki haley i mean it's deliberately misleading to
01:46:01.520 make her look bad when she did nothing wrong yep deliberately skewed that's really really bad yep um
01:46:07.140 but you're right it's different than saying it's like when people say climate change is a hoax
01:46:11.900 right i i don't like that terminology at all because and you know i'm one of the biggest
01:46:16.540 climate skeptics you're gonna find yes um but what i really don't like about that is it's it's so easy
01:46:22.680 for that for them to say it's not a hoax well what they've done with it is the hoax you're right like
01:46:28.600 the what they want to do the the policies they want to do those are bad policies and and and the
01:46:34.920 approach is wrong the catastrophism yeah the scare mongering is is is bad but just saying
01:46:41.580 climate change is a hoax is such an easily defeatable thing to so many people because look
01:46:47.220 there are scientific measures that show some of these things are going on what's the best way for
01:46:51.460 us to handle it right like do we go in and say uh that we should adapt to these things as we go or
01:46:58.100 spend trillions of dollars now when there's hungry people all over the place just gotta just got a friend
01:47:03.420 who's a kind of a lefty democrat not really a lefty um i sent it to send him my book and he said
01:47:10.380 best position i think i've ever heard on climate change oh really and that's the position i took
01:47:17.900 look it's it's what you want to do that's wrong that doesn't work that doesn't work and i showed
01:47:26.960 how people are using uh climate change to be able to call each other liars when get out of that
01:47:34.720 conversation get it to stop stop that argument yeah that's not the argument and once we know what the
01:47:40.140 argument is and we know um where you can actually open people's minds and find the common ground with
01:47:48.100 the not the zealots but the average person all of a sudden it's a game changer because all of a sudden
01:47:55.700 you go oh wait a minute okay you are kind of reasonable they they say that to you you are kind
01:48:00.080 of reasonable shields go down and you can actually have a conversation by the way uh if i could just
01:48:06.200 tease the fact that we're going to take a break from insanity hour two of pack ray unleashed today

01:49:47.200 glenn back so the bob woodward book is worth reading for the last chapter alone because it speaks
01:49:56.700 volumes about how the media is handling this with russia it is very clear it just changes the the uh
01:50:03.680 narrative entirely in trump's favor yeah trump looks really good uh in many parts of that last
01:50:09.340 chapter um another thing that's interesting is a lot of people say you know he has no ideological
01:50:12.780 beliefs he doesn't have a principled belief system um when it comes to politics and policy the book
01:50:18.820 makes it very clear if you believe it that he absolutely does when it comes to trade it's the
01:50:22.920 one thing he really cares about he's pushing for it constantly um tariffs tariffs and trade uh you
01:50:29.600 believe those tariffs and trade is it look at all that he is just using this as a tool
01:50:33.400 i do not look i mean i never believe this but i mean i don't think it's a negotiation i think it's
01:50:39.960 it's it's what he wants to do and again he was elected president united states on that policy
01:50:44.160 he should be able to try to push it through that's right congress gave him the power so i mean
01:50:48.680 you know that's what happens but that's pretty clear throughout the book
01:50:51.880 glenn back mercury
