The Glenn Beck Program - 'Raging Rageaholics'？ - 9⧸12⧸18

00:00:00.000 The Blaze Radio Network, on demand, Glenn Beck.

00:00:08.080 Well, guess who's coming to Iowa?

00:00:10.900 Everybody's favorite Spartacus, Senator Cory Booker.

00:00:15.400 That's right, he's coming to Iowa.

00:00:18.460 The senator from New Jersey is moving on from his I am Spartacus moment during the Kavanaugh

00:00:25.540 hearing just last week.

00:00:26.860 A moment, by the way, that was more heroic than anything I think most Americans have

00:00:33.520 ever seen, according to Cory Booker.

00:00:37.280 Now he's preparing to dazzle Iowa Democrats as the featured speaker at their fall gala

00:00:43.360 in October.

00:00:45.920 Is it too early for me to start printing Spartacus for president bumper stickers?

00:00:51.520 I don't think so.

00:00:52.660 It's never too early, because potential Democratic candidates are already jockeying for position.

00:00:59.840 Seven other Democrats, plus Bernie Sanders, have made appearances in Iowa just recently,

00:01:06.860 each one nurturing their own Oval Office dream.

00:01:11.320 Iowa Democratic Party Chairman Troy Price says,

00:01:13.880 We welcome anybody who wants to help us get Democrats elected in 2018, and we're sure happy

00:01:18.960 to have Senator Cory Booker's help.

00:01:22.060 This dinner is only about the great opportunities ahead of us in this election this fall.

00:01:27.720 I'm sure it is.

00:01:30.160 Now there's two schools of thought here when you show up in Iowa.

00:01:33.620 You know, it's kind of like, you know, asking the most popular girl in school to the prom.

00:01:38.900 You can either come out right out and ask her early and often.

00:01:43.000 Hey, well, what do you think about me and me going to the prom?

00:01:48.260 You know, that's what, you know, Bernie Sanders did.

00:01:53.340 The other one is to go.

00:01:55.500 So how are you doing?

00:01:59.080 Fine.

00:02:00.180 Yeah.

00:02:01.700 Just wanted to say hi.

00:02:04.520 Hey, I know we just saw each other yesterday, but I'm back.

00:02:08.320 Could I carry your books or something like that that would maybe make you notice me?

00:02:15.380 Because then I will ask around, my friends will ask around to see if you like me after you notice me.

00:02:21.160 That is what Cory Booker and so many people do in Iowa.

00:02:25.280 They're just hanging out, trying to see.

00:02:28.180 They don't want to ask.

00:02:29.640 I know, no, no.

00:02:30.400 I don't want to be president.

00:02:31.740 I just.

00:02:32.360 Hey, Iowa, I'm just here.

00:02:34.260 I could I carry your books home from school?

00:02:37.560 Uh huh.

00:02:39.780 Booker has placed four staffers in Iowa to work on the campaigns of state Democratic candidates.

00:02:45.460 That's usually an indicator that you want to do something with the White House.

00:02:50.720 But we're talking Spartacus over the next couple of weeks.

00:02:57.260 If Booker is this is photograph wearing a hard hat, kissing a baby, eating pancakes in a small town diner or doing all three of those things at once.

00:03:07.760 Well, you'll know Spartacus 2020 is a done deal.

00:03:14.440 But why spend time talking about that?

00:03:17.940 When there's something more important that actually matters and even Spartacus cannot help us.

00:03:29.180 I want to begin the show there.

00:03:33.640 Let me take a quick just 20 seconds break and then I want to come back with some audio.

00:03:41.120 So and another piece of a story that you have not heard.

00:03:46.760 We do that now.

00:03:59.960 It's Wednesday, September 12th.

00:04:02.500 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:04:04.120 OK, so we got Spartacus and that's the news that everybody wants to know who's running for president 2020.

00:04:12.920 Does that really affect you at all?

00:04:15.480 Is that is that that is important to you now to strategize 2020 or is it is it better to look at?

00:04:24.680 What the hell is happening to us right now?

00:04:27.940 Because you can have all the slick ad campaigns you want.

00:04:30.860 But who are the Democrats really appealing to?

00:04:38.660 Let me let me play something came out yesterday.

00:04:41.480 Carol Cook.

00:04:42.440 She's a she's an old timey Broadway actress. 1.00

00:04:46.540 Yeah, I remember in 1956 when she was hello, Dolly.

00:04:51.640 And she was she was coming out of some restaurant or a show or something with her husband, who was a spry 90 himself. 0.78

00:05:03.420 And she was asked, hey, what do you think about those people that brought the Trump 2020 banner to the frozen show?

00:05:13.640 Now, why would you do that?

00:05:16.080 Why would you do that?

00:05:17.880 What is the point?

00:05:20.020 So they brought this big banner.

00:05:22.260 They unfurled it right in the front row.

00:05:25.680 One of the actors broke character and took the thing away and put it backstage.

00:05:32.300 Appropriate.

00:05:32.900 Well, they had to ask TMZ had to ask.

00:05:40.980 Legend Carol Cook about what she thought.

00:05:44.580 And here's what she said.

00:05:45.820 Is that a proper venue for, you know, a Trumper to bring a banner to? 1.00

00:05:51.900 Well, my answer to that is, oh, this is good.

00:05:55.180 Where was it?

00:05:56.240 Stop.

00:05:56.900 Stop it right there.

00:05:57.880 Stop it right there.

00:05:58.680 Her husband says, oh, this is good.

00:06:03.340 Where would you say it?

00:06:06.260 Her husband.

00:06:07.440 They've already said this multiple times, apparently.

00:06:12.620 Because it always gets a big laugh.

00:06:18.960 It gets a huge laugh.

00:06:24.400 So he interrupts it.

00:06:25.700 He's going to say, but no, no, no, no.

00:06:27.140 You say it.

00:06:29.440 You're going to be so funny when you say it.

00:06:32.600 Here's what she says.

00:06:33.900 No, you're just, no.

00:06:35.420 Where is John Wilkes Booth when you need him?

00:06:39.780 Right?

00:06:41.320 Yes, that's what you say.

00:06:42.900 Now you're going to ask me who the hell John Wilkes Booth is.

00:06:44.960 No, I know who John Wilkes Booth is.

00:06:46.180 Thank you, darling.

00:06:47.380 He killed President.

00:06:49.100 Where is he when you need him?

00:06:51.960 He has to know.

00:06:54.080 So we need to kill President Trump?

00:06:56.260 Well, he did.

00:06:57.080 No.

00:06:57.300 Well, why not?

00:06:59.680 Okay, stop.

00:07:00.920 Stop for a second.

00:07:02.980 So she's like, you don't ask me about John Wilkes Booth.

00:07:08.000 I dated him back in the 40s, the 1840s.

00:07:14.800 So she's, she is, I mean, the thing that she has said it so many times, apparently somebody

00:07:22.180 said to her, who's John Wilkes Booth?

00:07:23.860 You're not going to ask me, oh, thank you, darling.

00:07:27.980 I'm so sick of the stupid people who don't remember, don't know their history of John Wilkes Booth.

00:07:35.920 I live on the Upper West Side, and there are so many cretins that just don't know their history. 1.00

00:07:42.960 So she is, she is taking this to thank you for at least knowing your history instead of, oh, am I going to be in real trouble?

00:07:56.200 Well, then the press says, so you think we should kill Donald Trump?

00:08:01.000 And she said, you have to see the video.

00:08:03.080 She stands there slyly.

00:08:07.100 Her husband tries to laugh it off.

00:08:10.000 You know, I didn't know.

00:08:11.660 Oh, no, this joke means something entirely different.

00:08:16.160 I'm sorry.

00:08:17.080 What were we talking about?

00:08:18.220 We're both senile.

00:08:21.820 She says, yeah, why not?

00:08:26.160 Well, I don't know.

00:08:27.000 Other than it being an assassination of a president, you know, it's usually a bad thing.

00:08:31.880 Other than, you know, even making that joke is really dangerous.

00:08:36.560 Even though if I would have said anything like that about President Obama, you would have led a team of senior citizens to try to beat me with their Broadway canes. 1.00

00:08:51.340 I don't know.

00:08:52.300 Maybe that's why not.

00:08:55.020 So that's the outrage today.

00:08:58.300 But I'm not really outraged by it because I know who she is.

00:09:03.500 And she doesn't affect my life at all.

00:09:07.500 None of those Broadway people do.

00:09:09.980 I don't really care.

00:09:14.220 It should concern the Secret Service.

00:09:17.200 Not that she said it.

00:09:18.600 Not like she's going to be John Wilkes.

00:09:21.080 But that she has said this so much and people have laughed about it so much.

00:09:30.440 I mean, is the press concerned?

00:09:33.180 Because words do have consequences.

00:09:35.020 You never know.

00:09:36.280 Even in a joke.

00:09:37.280 I learned this from them between 2008 and 2016.

00:09:41.800 They taught me very, very well that words have consequences.

00:09:45.580 And even when you're joking, you don't know who might be hearing that and what it might cause them to do.

00:09:52.020 They might think you're serious.

00:09:53.840 Well, yes, they might think you're serious.

00:09:57.300 Of course, when she said it and she said, seriously, well, why not?

00:10:03.880 I kind of took her seriously.

00:10:06.880 You know, I think she meant that.

00:10:12.880 But let's go for today's outrage.

00:10:15.720 That was yesterday's outrage.

00:10:17.820 And if anybody, do we have the jingle?

00:10:19.440 If anybody is addicted to outrage, today's your lucky day.

00:10:23.420 Addicted to outrage.

00:10:25.260 Outrage.

00:10:26.140 Yes.

00:10:27.580 Here's today's outrage.

00:10:32.580 On Facebook.

00:10:38.800 No, it's got the blue checkmark.

00:10:44.620 So this is Twitter.

00:10:47.060 On Twitter, a woman, just, I don't even want to, just give her first name, Cassandra, wrote, who's going to the MAGA meetup tonight?

00:10:56.740 So there's a meetup, you know, where she's at.

00:10:58.800 Who's going?

00:11:00.300 Okay.

00:11:01.680 Dream star justice.

00:11:03.200 Um, he or she wrote in, I'm coming, but I'm coming with a gun and I expect to get numerous bloodstained MAGA hats as trophies.

00:11:16.920 Oh.

00:11:19.040 Okay.

00:11:20.500 All right.

00:11:22.120 Okay.

00:11:22.680 Well, that's okay.

00:11:24.020 We can say things like that on Twitter.

00:11:28.100 That's okay.

00:11:29.740 We can, we can, we can say that.

00:11:32.580 And the press won't even notice it.

00:11:40.080 Now, here's the thing.

00:11:43.040 Why has, why did, why did this fail in 1968?

00:11:49.800 Why did this fail?

00:11:52.400 For a couple of reasons.

00:11:54.720 The, the communist revolution and Democrats, if you are not awake yet.

00:12:01.540 To see that you are in bed with people who want to shut down capitalism.

00:12:09.400 They want to destroy the constitution.

00:12:13.000 All you have to do is listen to them.

00:12:17.100 Not all Democrats are saying that, but the social Democrats are.

00:12:21.600 And that's who's running your party right now.

00:12:26.060 You are a, you're a host for a virus that is trying to destroy the Western way of life.

00:12:33.780 Now, you can either start taking medicine and I'm not suggesting that you, that you take my medicine and you turn into a Republican.

00:12:40.720 I'm not suggesting that.

00:12:42.560 I'm saying you take some medicine and turn into a decent American. 0.75

00:12:46.320 You separate yourself from people like this.

00:12:51.980 You separate yourself from people who say, you know what, capitalism doesn't work.

00:12:56.880 If you don't think capitalism works, that's fine.

00:13:00.680 Then state that loudly and clearly.

00:13:03.560 But if you do, you need to say, state that just as loudly and clearly in your own circles and outside of your own circles.

00:13:13.920 There are people on the far left that are now leaving the far left because they realize how dangerous these people are becoming.

00:13:23.520 Not me saying this people in the far left.

00:13:27.620 They're saying it.

00:13:31.100 They are separating themselves because they realize these guys will kill people.

00:13:37.360 You give them power and they will kill people who disagree with them because they're already trying to silence them on the fringes.

00:13:45.540 But they've already also started to take off the masks and say, yeah, we don't believe in capitalism.

00:13:51.760 We don't believe in the Constitution.

00:13:54.320 We believe this is a failure.

00:13:56.340 We've got to try something new.

00:13:58.780 Great.

00:13:59.860 But is that you as a Democrat?

00:14:03.120 Is that who you want in your party?

00:14:05.980 Because anybody who is saying that on my side, I reject.

00:14:11.600 Anybody who says, yeah, I'm going to the pussy ad party and I'm going to I'm going to collect a lot of bloodstained pink hats. 1.00

00:14:20.700 I reject.

00:14:22.180 I call out.

00:14:23.820 And if I think they're serious, I report them.

00:14:28.120 If that if that was on Twitter, I would and it was a, you know, somebody on the right.

00:14:33.660 I would notify Twitter.

00:14:37.820 Oh, that hurts your side.

00:14:39.580 No, it doesn't.

00:14:40.320 It helps my side.

00:14:42.100 Because the reason why things failed in the 1960s is the violence.

00:14:49.800 Americans, I don't care who you are. 1.00

00:14:52.000 But the majority of Americans, and it might be 52 percent, but the majority of Americans do not want to overturn the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, even if they don't even know really what it means.

00:15:10.700 But they certainly do not want to be a part of violence in the streets.

00:15:17.180 They do not want to be a part of killing people.

00:15:20.800 They don't want to be a part of assassinations.

00:15:23.700 Here we are with the same atmosphere of 1968.

00:15:27.160 We have been so blessed not to have assassinations.

00:15:31.220 And you have Broadway stars joking about it.

00:15:39.660 Anybody who's serious.

00:15:42.060 Is not joking about that.

00:15:44.620 Anybody who really knows what time we're living in.

00:15:47.740 We're not joking about that.

00:15:52.780 We want no part of that.

00:15:55.540 And that includes many, I believe, Democrats.

00:16:00.780 I could be wrong.

00:16:02.840 But I don't think so.

00:16:04.820 I think there is a different kind of Tea Party coming for the Democrats.

00:16:10.340 I think they are exposing themselves now for who they really are, anti-capitalist communists.

00:16:19.700 People who will come and eat their own.

00:16:24.940 Because they're already doing it.

00:16:27.740 And the intellectual leaders of the left are beginning to leave and say, I want no part of this.

00:16:37.580 I am more afraid of the left than I am of the right.

00:16:42.100 And I'm really pretty afraid of the right.

00:16:45.840 The wise people have already caught on and they're getting out.

00:16:51.960 I don't think it will take much longer for the Democrats.

00:16:55.600 The people that are your neighbors in the center of the country.

00:16:59.300 I don't think it's going to take much more for them to say, I can't be a part of this at all.

00:17:04.960 But they have to know that they're not just going to be an orphan.

00:17:11.940 We don't have to agree with each other.

00:17:14.240 But as long as we agree on decency, the Bill of Rights and the Constitution, we can be friends forever.

00:17:21.260 So, emergencies.

00:17:30.240 We are facing, how many hurricanes or tropical storms are in the Atlantic right now?

00:17:36.140 Four?

00:17:37.060 Something like that.

00:17:37.860 Four.

00:17:38.380 And that, man, Florence looks really, really ugly.

00:17:42.000 They now have it kind of turning right at the shore and just kind of coasting along the shore and just dumping water all over the place.

00:17:48.640 That looks really ugly.

00:17:50.000 Devastated.

00:17:50.600 Just devastated.

00:17:52.640 This is going to be a bad one.

00:17:56.120 And there's three others behind it.

00:18:02.280 Please, please prepare yourself.

00:18:05.120 Can you imagine how much money it takes if you lose everything you have in one of these hurricanes or you lose your house?

00:18:12.000 You have to go and you have to stay in a hotel and you have to have food.

00:18:16.800 So, what are you going to do?

00:18:17.900 Cook it in the room?

00:18:18.820 Eat spaghettios out of a can?

00:18:20.560 For a while, sure.

00:18:22.620 But what is that going to cost you?

00:18:24.420 The average person cannot afford this.

00:18:26.820 I saw this myself in Houston.

00:18:28.840 These people who are devastated didn't have enough to even go to a hotel.

00:18:32.700 How are you eating?

00:18:33.380 Please prepare yourself.

00:18:36.380 My Patriot Supply.

00:18:37.780 Food storage.

00:18:39.120 Each person in your house should have at least two weeks of emergency food.

00:18:43.140 The price this week only is $75 for a food kit that contains 92 servings of breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

00:20:05.680 Addicted to Outrage.

00:20:08.080 The new book from Glenn Beck, Addicted to Outrage, is available everywhere on September 18th.

00:20:13.440 Pre-order it now at Amazon.com.

00:20:17.040 So, you know, I worked really a long time on this book.

00:20:24.380 And it's a book that I feel passionately about and in the same way that I did about Common Sense.

00:20:37.340 When I wrote that, I felt that I was alone.

00:20:42.900 And I considered just releasing it on the internet as anonymous.

00:20:50.740 And then Simon & Schuster reminded me about contracts and the written word.

00:20:55.120 So, I couldn't do that.

00:20:56.400 But I felt as strongly about that.

00:21:01.440 In fact, I went to Simon & Schuster and I said,

00:21:03.700 Please don't publish this in hardbound.

00:21:06.080 Please.

00:21:06.620 I want to make this as cheap as possible.

00:21:10.780 I want this to be $8.

00:21:13.340 So, people could buy two of them as opposed to one and give it to a friend.

00:21:18.260 So, I had been giving it to some friends.

00:21:22.720 And I just got an email back from a guy who shall remain nameless because he lives in a dicey part of the country where he cannot say who he is.

00:21:35.020 But he is, you know who I'm talking about, Stu.

00:21:37.520 He's a brilliant guy.

00:21:39.940 Yeah.

00:21:40.160 Brilliant guy.

00:21:41.080 And doesn't always agree with me.

00:21:43.720 He said, Glenn, I want you to know I finished the book today.

00:21:47.920 Then I deleted my Twitter account.

00:21:50.660 Not that I used it that much.

00:21:52.620 And Facebook.

00:21:55.100 Let me lead with my conclusion and then walk through my notes.

00:21:58.940 Because I asked him, I said, tell me what you like, what you didn't understand, yada, yada, yada.

00:22:03.740 He said, in the beginning of the book, which is so interesting because I knew it because I hadn't heard from him for a while.

00:22:12.220 And I knew, uh-oh, he's having a problem with this.

00:22:15.920 Let me lead with my conclusion and then walk through my notes.

00:22:18.160 In the beginning of the book, I felt like I was just reading three different books in one.

00:22:23.600 But about two-thirds of the way through, I realized, one, you can't ask or expect someone to read three books.

00:22:30.940 And two, all of the information had to be in a single book.

00:22:36.480 And it was actually exactly the right way to do it.

00:22:40.340 For a lot of the book, I felt like I know what you're saying.

00:22:43.680 But, I mean, you're not talking to me because I don't have an outrage addiction problem.

00:22:48.540 But at some point, I got the sense of what it must feel like to realize you're in denial and actually have a problem.

00:22:55.440 By the last few chapters, I had a sense that this was exactly the book I needed to read right now.

00:23:03.320 It's been a rough few months.

00:23:05.980 And he goes into some personal problems.

00:23:08.180 One of them was, one of my friends, a buddy of mine, I just found out is now a transhumanist who thinks humans need to be extinct.

00:23:17.180 And animals are more important than people.

00:23:19.540 And religion is just a cover for racists and rapists.

00:23:22.440 I also feel like I'm golden handcuffed in a job and I want to wake up and leave, but I can't and I have to hide who I really am.

00:23:33.560 I don't drink.

00:23:35.960 But I have to admit, I do like some outrage when I come home after a hard day.

00:23:42.440 Hi, my name is blank and I'm a rageaholic.

00:23:46.180 By the end of the book, I realized this might be the book you were born to write, even if it's before its time.

00:23:55.140 I hope people read this cover to cover and don't set it down halfway through and not pick it back up.

00:24:00.080 The ending is the most important part.

00:24:03.060 But here's the thread you were running throughout that stood out to me that I just need to sort out.

00:24:09.820 I've been able to see the clouds on the horizon as long as I can remember, and I know whatever whatever is coming is building up to something that's going to be a very rough go.

00:24:20.480 I worry there's a big step missing that would be required to make people understand this book, something similar to rock bottom in AA.

00:24:30.480 I have assumed that it will be civil war or a world war or both.

00:24:37.400 Can we as humans skip over that rock bottom and go right to the healing?

00:24:43.460 That's the part I have to pray on, and I still doubt I'll have the answer.

00:24:48.520 I think for your audience, the answer is yes.

00:24:52.700 But who else?

00:25:00.480 I don't know if you can be a better person without rock bottom.

00:25:06.780 But we all have different rock bottoms.

00:25:11.640 I have friends who are not going to shed their outrage because it feels good.

00:25:18.100 And they like it.

00:25:20.940 And they feel that for the first time, they're winning.

00:25:25.600 And I can't argue with that.

00:25:27.180 You are pushing back.

00:25:30.860 You are opening people's eyes to you.

00:25:34.320 You are you are saying the things that you weren't allowed to say to the mainstream media.

00:25:41.520 And you've got them on the ropes.

00:25:44.660 I agree with you.

00:25:47.740 However.

00:25:50.080 That is a short term high.

00:25:53.020 And it does feel good.

00:25:57.360 And I understand as an alcoholic that sometimes you're in so much pain that you will pick up the bottle and you will drink.

00:26:08.440 And at the beginning, it just feels good.

00:26:11.500 And you say to yourself, I need this.

00:26:14.580 I need this to blow off steam.

00:26:16.320 I need this to be able to cope with the day.

00:26:18.640 It's been a horrible, horrible day.

00:26:20.360 And I need it.

00:26:22.220 And this just makes me feel better.

00:26:23.840 I even got to a point to where I was saying to myself, I was a better dad as an alcoholic.

00:26:29.140 I have to drink because it slows me down enough to be able to play with the kids and be with the kids.

00:26:35.580 So I'm a better dad.

00:26:36.960 And for a short period of time, maybe it did slow me down enough because I'm riddled with ADD.

00:26:46.000 Maybe it did slow me down enough to be able to play with the kids.

00:26:49.620 But in the long run, it made me a horrible dad.

00:26:54.400 Because all the alcohol did was let me avoid what the real problem was.

00:27:00.800 And the real problem is not Donald Trump.

00:27:03.320 That is not the problem.

00:27:05.120 If Donald Trump was sucked into space suddenly because some Broadway actresses had a portal and they could open up the envelope of space and just suck him out. 0.97

00:27:19.080 That wouldn't happen because of Space Force.

00:27:20.760 But go ahead.

00:27:21.340 Okay.

00:27:22.100 That's probably why he wants Space Force.

00:27:24.680 But our problems, our problems wouldn't change.

00:27:30.300 They would just move to Mike Pence.

00:27:32.320 So it's not Donald Trump.

00:27:36.140 And it's not that they are the Democratic Party.

00:27:42.700 It's not the Democratic Party.

00:27:45.460 The Democratic Party is being consumed because they are playing host to a very dangerous virus.

00:27:54.820 And that virus is post-modernism.

00:28:00.080 And once you understand that, you will understand that it relies on chaos.

00:28:06.280 Do you remember when I said years ago, chaos is going to be the operative word?

00:28:12.220 And I remember because I saw the word chaos with the 12th, the mom and the ideology of those who are, you know, behind the government in Iran is the ideology of the 12th, the mom that he will return and he will wash the world in blood. 0.92

00:28:31.480 No, I'm sorry, that the world will be washed in blood by his supporters.

00:28:35.060 And when they create enough chaos, that's when the 12th, the mom will return. 1.00

00:28:42.460 Well, that's another way of saying Armageddon.

00:28:45.080 But they specifically use the word chaos.

00:28:48.260 And then I noticed Russia, the chief advisor to Russia, is a guy whose symbol is the ancient symbol of chaos.

00:28:56.560 And he's trying to destroy the Western way of life through nationalism, through chaos.

00:29:05.500 What was the goal of of Russia? 0.53

00:29:10.000 Because we're arguing about Donald Trump, we're missing the point.

00:29:14.360 The point was not about getting Donald Trump elected.

00:29:17.980 The point was to cause chaos.

00:29:20.800 It was to pit us against each other and our institutions to get us to not believe in the government, not believe in the FBI, not believe in the election, not believe that, you know, that we can hold fair elections, not believe in the Republicans, not believe in the Democrats.

00:29:42.260 You'll notice what they did is they pitted the Democrats against each other.

00:29:49.040 They all by by the only thing they did was expose them for dividing the party in half.

00:29:57.860 Well, what did that do?

00:29:59.360 That caused chaos with inside the party.

00:30:02.680 Putin is is applauding.

00:30:05.700 This plan has worked out far better than he could have ever hoped.

00:30:10.240 Because we've turned on each other.

00:30:15.040 If Lincoln was right. 0.69

00:30:19.880 This country will never be destroyed by the from the outside.

00:30:23.860 It will only be destroyed when we turn on each other.

00:30:28.760 In chaos.

00:30:29.960 And when you're afraid because things are chaotic and when you are afraid because someone is beating up on you, all reason leaves.

00:30:43.480 You go back to your lizard brain.

00:30:47.760 We cannot engage in chaos.

00:30:51.700 We cannot engage in outrage.

00:30:54.060 We must instead re re fortify the fort and the walls around reason.

00:31:04.900 And both sides have to do it.

00:31:09.440 And we have to have reasonable conversations.

00:31:13.040 Somebody said to me last week.

00:31:16.200 Glenn, I think the big difference between us is.

00:31:19.660 You believe in reconciliation and there are people that we cannot reconcile with.

00:31:23.980 And I said.

00:31:25.380 Oh, yeah, I understand that.

00:31:28.720 I'm not I'm not stupid.

00:31:30.100 Martin Luther King did not say, hey, go hug it out at a cross burning.

00:31:35.320 You don't know.

00:31:36.940 They want to kill you.

00:31:38.920 Now, if there is a cross burner who takes off the hood and says, you know what?

00:31:43.640 I see the error of my ways.

00:31:46.060 I can reconcile with you.

00:31:47.500 But if you still want to kill me, if you're still trying to destroy the Bill of Rights and the Constitution, I can't reconcile with you.

00:31:54.160 I can love you.

00:31:55.380 I can despise the things you're doing.

00:31:57.320 And I don't have to hate you.

00:32:00.400 But I'm not going to give you the power over my life to to make me outraged.

00:32:07.020 That power belongs to me.

00:32:08.480 You cannot make me outraged.

00:32:10.400 My outrage comes from me.

00:32:14.020 And I'll decide when I'm going to be outraged and how I'm going to react to everything that you're doing.

00:32:20.000 And I know that if we are going to save the Western way of life, then we must go to the principles that the Western way of life was was founded on.

00:32:34.640 And that is reason and logic and yes, the teachings of Jesus Christ.

00:32:44.940 Love one another.

00:32:46.940 Treat them as you want to be treated yourself, even when they slap you across the face.

00:32:53.280 That is not a retreat.

00:32:55.400 You never retreat from your principles.

00:32:59.800 There is a time to fight.

00:33:02.280 But this is not the time, because that is exactly what they need.

00:33:10.100 They need you to respond and be vitriolic, vengeful, spiteful.

00:33:16.480 Because that's the way to destroy everything that has taken centuries to build.

00:33:23.860 By the way, I'm doing a virtual book signing tomorrow.

00:33:34.340 So if you want to have your book signed and you're not going to be anywhere around any of the stage shows that we're doing, by the way, we're going on tour.

00:34:02.280 We're adding a new one, I think, next week.

00:34:04.520 Make sure you join us.

00:34:05.720 Get your tickets now at Glenn Beck dot com.

00:34:10.040 As summer fades to fall, recent market shifts could give homebuyers a leg up in the latter part of last year.

00:34:17.220 In July, National Inventory of Homes listed above 350,000 rows, 5.7.

00:34:23.520 Now, that means that there's less buyer competition.

00:34:27.960 Sellers are eager to close before Christmas.

00:34:31.320 That could give you real advantages and leverage.

00:34:36.360 Now is the time to pick up the phone and call American Financing.

00:35:37.080 Welcome to the program.

00:35:38.520 Next week or next hour, we have Matt Walsh on who is a deep, you know, orthodox Catholic who has been following this scandal with the Pope in Pennsylvania and the Cardinal there.

00:35:58.680 I will tell you, yesterday, the Pope sounded anything but like St. Francis.

00:36:07.960 He talked about how Satan was exposing these cardinals and, you know, he was not apologetic. 0.88

00:36:19.560 He was not seemingly worried about the children.

00:36:23.880 It seemed like all he cared about was the hierarchy of the church.

00:36:27.660 And it was really disturbing.

00:36:29.740 But I wanted to talk to Matt Walsh, who is a Catholic, on this and get his point of view and what's really happening.

00:36:37.100 And where's the Pope going with this?

00:36:41.480 Back in a minute.

00:36:43.840 Glenn Beck is coming live to talk about the right path forward and to make fun of the people standing in the way.

00:36:49.420 He might not be able to save the country, but at least we can all go down laughing.

00:36:53.020 Glenn Beck Live, the Addicted to Outrage Tour.

00:36:56.040 On tour this fall.

00:36:59.160 Glenn Beck.

00:37:00.100 Back.

00:37:01.100 State of emergency.

00:37:03.020 Now declared in four states on the East Coast.

00:37:06.640 North Carolina, the full brunt of Hurricane Florence.

00:37:10.480 Now topping 140 mile-an-hour winds and it's only getting stronger.

00:37:17.440 It's expected to reach Category 5 with 150 mile-an-hour winds by the time it reaches landfall on Thursday.

00:37:24.780 This is going to spend some time and be extremely destructive to the coast if the computer modeling is accurate.

00:37:36.180 A storm this powerful hasn't hit North Carolina for 60 years.

00:37:41.400 To put that into perspective, our president was Eisenhower.

00:37:45.520 The number one movie at the box office was Dial M for Murder by Alfred Hitchcock.

00:37:50.380 Kids were listening to Earth Angel by the Penguins on the radio in their Chevy convertibles.

00:37:57.740 In other words, been a long time.

00:38:01.600 When Hurricane Hazel hit in 1954, 19 people died in North Carolina.

00:38:08.560 Over 15,000 buildings were completely destroyed.

00:38:13.000 Its path of destruction traveled all the way up to Buffalo, New York.

00:38:16.960 60 people died in Virginia alone.

00:38:19.280 Over a million people in North and South Carolina now are facing mandatory evacuation orders.

00:38:27.200 Tropical storm force winds will arrive by Wednesday evening with full hurricane force winds arriving tomorrow.

00:38:36.220 Gas stations are already beginning to run out of fuel as people scramble to fill up their tanks.

00:38:41.400 Five-gallon gas cans.

00:38:43.760 Grocery stores, they're out.

00:38:45.620 Water, batteries, bread, milk.

00:38:50.640 We can say it a million times.

00:38:52.820 The time to prepare is not at the time of crisis.

00:38:56.900 You have to have the bare minimum of 72 hours worth of food, water, and fuel.

00:39:04.760 More bad news.

00:39:05.940 It is possible this storm could knock power out for at least two to three days.

00:39:12.560 72 hours is the societal mark of real trouble.

00:39:16.920 But last year, Hurricane Harvey brought out the best in not only Texas, but in states like Louisiana.

00:39:25.480 While the hurricane was still raging, if you looked at a freeway in Texas, you'd likely see a convoy of stopped traffic, privately owned boats heading down towards ground zero here in Texas to help out.

00:39:41.760 Disaster struck, disaster struck, and we stepped up.

00:39:46.240 The government did their thing, but we didn't wait for them.

00:39:52.180 Today is September 12th, 9-12.

00:39:56.960 This day has been a rallying call for my audience, and I have been talking to you about 9-12-2001 since 9-12-2001.

00:40:13.140 It's when we showed the best of us.

00:40:16.320 It's when politics didn't matter.

00:40:19.660 When we all became Americans.

00:40:22.280 If you're anywhere in the area, I believe we each have a responsibility to help.

00:40:31.820 To, in the next few weeks, go and cut trees.

00:40:35.560 Give space to people who don't have any.

00:40:38.640 Help muck out their houses. 0.61

00:40:41.540 Help feed them. 0.97

00:40:43.840 If you're able, roll up your sleeves and help out.

00:40:48.000 If you physically can't be there, I would like to suggest to you that you make a donation to Mercury One.

00:40:59.200 Mercury One already has, what is it, 200 and, I don't have that note in front of me now.

00:41:08.520 I think it's 210 or 250 semi-trucks already on the road.

00:41:14.160 They have shovels, they have equipment, they have food, they have water.

00:41:21.280 Over 200 semi-trucks are already making their way towards the Carolinas.

00:41:26.540 We already have Team Rubicon there.

00:41:29.440 Team Rubicon is this amazing group of former patriots and soldiers and sailors and airmen

00:41:38.680 who didn't want to stop serving their country.

00:41:42.060 And this is a volunteer group that we help support.

00:41:45.160 That go on the front lines of wherever there is a disaster, help save people and rebuild their lives.

00:41:52.840 Also, Operation Barbecue is already there in the Carolinas.

00:41:57.180 This is a group that feeds people when there is no food.

00:42:01.080 They just got out of California.

00:42:02.600 They can serve up to, I think, 30,000 meals a day.

00:42:10.540 But we need your help.

00:42:13.880 If you can make a donation on this 9-12,

00:42:18.820 if we can come together before there's a need,

00:42:24.720 before there is the emergency,

00:42:29.800 I think that will say a lot about us.

00:42:32.600 That we're still thinking and we still have our heart in the right place.

00:42:37.940 And I know you.

00:42:41.280 These are Americans that are in trouble.

00:42:45.620 I don't know how they voted.

00:42:47.500 I don't know what they think about the president.

00:42:49.760 And I don't care.

00:42:52.380 We're in this together.

00:42:53.640 Go to mercuryone.org and make a donation, please, right now.

00:42:58.900 We desperately need your help on our relief fund.

00:43:04.980 Please go to mercuryone.org and donate now.

00:43:08.820 I believe we have Brad Meltzer on the phone.

00:43:22.340 He is the author of a new children's book that we'll talk about here in a second

00:43:26.460 called I Am Neil Armstrong.

00:43:28.880 But Brad, it's the day after 9-11.

00:43:33.600 Where were you on 9-11?

00:43:35.220 I was in Washington, D.C.

00:43:38.640 My nine-month pregnant wife worked in the U.S. Capitol. 1.00

00:43:43.320 And she was driving to the Capitol after the towers were hit.

00:43:48.080 And she said, you know, I wonder if they're going to up security at the Capitol.

00:43:52.360 Because, and then she stopped on the side of the road, Glenn.

00:43:55.580 She pulled over off on the side and said, wait a minute.

00:43:58.200 The Capitol has terrible, terrible security.

00:44:01.140 I have a bad feeling I'm not going to go into work today.

00:44:05.160 And we all know now, of course, that the Pennsylvania flight was believed to be headed

00:44:10.440 to the Capitol.

00:44:11.640 So those people on that flight in a different universe with a twist of fate, it was headed

00:44:18.600 right for my nine-month pregnant wife.

00:44:20.500 And we owe those people forever.

00:44:22.600 And I came outside because our dear friend Michelle Heidenberger, our neighbor who lived

00:44:27.640 truly across the street from us, she was the flight attendant on the Pentagon flight.

00:44:33.620 So needless to say, when we were searching for the 9-11 flag, it was one of the most personal

00:44:39.500 searches we've ever undertaken.

00:44:41.760 I have to tell you, one of the most incredible stories I think I've ever heard, I had no idea

00:44:46.400 that your wife was nine months old and pregnant.

00:44:49.600 I don't even know how that happens.

00:44:50.920 It's weird.

00:44:51.400 I was going to say, it's an amazing, I want to bring up the, I want to bring up the flag

00:44:57.980 because the flag, the one that was, you know, that was flown by the firefighters, that famous

00:45:04.320 shot of the firefighters with the flag, that flag went missing quickly.

00:45:10.460 You are the guy who found the flag and, and, and returned it to ground zero.

00:45:16.360 And then if it's, if I'm not mistaken, your child was just assigned, uh, a, uh, a homework

00:45:24.420 assignment, right?

00:45:27.320 Can we, this is, this may be the greatest thing that's ever happened to me.

00:45:31.720 So I am leaving, I'm leaving for the book tour for, I am Neil Armstrong yesterday.

00:45:35.660 I am an hour away from headed for the plane.

00:45:38.060 My son walks in, my young son walks in and says, dad, look what our homework assignment

00:45:42.960 is.

00:45:43.260 And it's a homework assignment about the person who finding the nine 11 flag.

00:45:48.240 And my son proudly says, dad, they don't mention you in it.

00:45:50.980 They just mentioned that a TV show found it.

00:45:53.620 And I, I was like, son, you are going to crush homework tomorrow.

00:46:00.400 And the best part of Glenn, the best part of this is I wake up this morning.

00:46:05.420 I just found this and it has gone to national news.

00:46:09.180 I put it on my Twitter account.

00:46:10.260 Yahoo just picked it up.

00:46:11.260 It's become a national news story that the guy who found the nine 11 flag that his teacher

00:46:15.620 assigned, uh, an assignment on him.

00:46:17.680 And she didn't even know.

00:46:18.520 So the funniest part of the whole thing is at six o'clock this morning, I get an email

00:46:22.260 from the teacher that says, I'm so sorry.

00:46:24.140 I didn't know it was you.

00:46:25.100 And I'm like, it's fine.

00:46:26.080 It was, it was so many of us.

00:46:27.460 It was obviously one of the great blessings of my life is to, is to play a small role in

00:46:31.200 its return.

00:46:31.760 And, and, and the fact that it leads to one of the greatest con, you know, she said, I said,

00:46:36.000 you don't understand.

00:46:36.900 I need to thank you because this comedy bit is going to play forever.

00:46:39.860 Oh, and your son, your son sees you as a hero.

00:46:43.520 And that's fantastic.

00:46:45.140 I mean, anything that will reinforce, you know, my dad is cool.

00:46:49.280 I think is, is great.

00:46:50.920 That's an impossibility, right?

00:46:51.960 So like, that's like the fine gravity is my, my dad is cool.

00:46:55.000 So yes, we will take it any day.

00:46:56.160 So did, did Yahoo know that on nine 11, you were married to a nine month old who was pregnant?

00:47:04.540 That's the bigger story.

00:47:06.760 It really is.

00:47:07.720 It really is.

00:47:08.620 Yeah.

00:47:09.100 Okay.

00:47:09.540 Tell me about the, tell me about the book, Neil Armstrong.

00:47:11.820 The reason why I'm having you on is I love your books in the first place.

00:47:15.820 I love your adult books, but the children books are just fantastic for children.

00:47:20.820 They teach principles and they teach all about heroes.

00:47:24.700 I wanted to have you on because, uh, Neil Armstrong been in the news recently.

00:47:31.240 I mean, I, I really believe Glenn that, you know, it is no coincidence that he's in news

00:47:36.580 and it's not just because of obviously the ridiculousness that the new movie does.

00:47:41.040 So apparently doesn't have them planting the flag.

00:47:43.140 It's not just that I wrote a book and these things happen for a reason.

00:47:46.880 I really believe that in all times of history, you don't get the heroes you want, you get

00:47:52.660 the heroes you need.

00:47:53.700 There's a need out there.

00:47:55.460 And I think a humble person like Neil Armstrong is the hero we need right now.

00:48:01.240 And I wrote the book purposely, um, because I wanted my kids to learn that kind of humility.

00:48:06.980 I mean, it's a children's book.

00:48:08.160 It teaches you about, of course, the space launch, but Neil Armstrong used to never use

00:48:12.280 the word.

00:48:12.740 I use the word.

00:48:14.280 We, we did this.

00:48:15.380 His quote was when they took the Apollo mission, he said, please tell everyone who worked on

00:48:20.120 this, that this is their launch.

00:48:21.920 Tell them that they'll be riding with us all the way.

00:48:24.160 And he meant the scientists.

00:48:25.280 He meant the mathematicians.

00:48:26.800 He meant the people who sewed the tailors, who sewed the spacesuit together.

00:48:31.640 Remember when humility was a great American value?

00:48:35.280 I wrote, I am Neil Armstrong because I want my sons to learn that humility.

00:48:39.360 I want my daughter to learn that kind of humility again, because we've lost it.

00:48:42.500 What was the outrage over the flag?

00:48:46.120 Was that, uh, what did you make of all of that?

00:48:50.960 You know, so here's what I think.

00:48:52.180 I mean, let's be very clear.

00:48:53.960 The movie is not out yet.

00:48:55.240 So no one's seen it.

00:48:56.660 Apparently I tried, of course, to check it out.

00:48:59.120 Um, apparently the flag is featured predominantly, but let's also be clear.

00:49:03.320 Landing on the moon was an American achievement without question, right?

00:49:09.000 It happened because the president of the United States said, we are going to do this.

00:49:12.480 We're going to do it together.

00:49:13.720 And it was America who got us there. 0.66

00:49:15.620 It was a race against the Russians. 0.97

00:49:17.540 Truly.

00:49:18.420 Um, I think that the, the, the, the big mess up that they made was simply that they, you

00:49:23.840 know, the star of the movie said, oh, it's a, it's a human achievement.

00:49:26.860 It's not a human achievement.

00:49:28.200 I mean, certainly humans were responsible.

00:49:29.740 It's an American achievement.

00:49:31.420 Um, but from what I hear, Neil Armstrong's sons, uh, said the flags feature predominantly.

00:49:36.660 I'm going to trust his family that if they're happy with it, I'm going to be happy with it.

00:49:40.340 And I tend to not want to get in controversies where no one's seen the movie and we just want

00:49:44.420 to have a controversy because we're having a controversy.

00:49:46.200 That seems, you know, antithetical to what Neil Armstrong stands for, which is, you know,

00:49:50.100 that be humble and let's be calm and let's hold it together.

00:49:53.000 What did Neil Armstrong do, you know, with his, with his life after the moon?

00:49:58.960 I had, I had dinner or I had lunch with, um, uh, Buzz Aldrin and I brought my dad because

00:50:07.120 I thought, how cool is this that my dad can come with me to have lunch with Buzz Aldrin.

00:50:12.920 And, uh, and we sat there and, and I have to tell you, it was the saddest, it was the saddest

00:50:20.940 thing I've ever seen, um, because he talked about, you know, his alcoholism and everything

00:50:25.760 else.

00:50:26.620 He, he got back and, you know, he was just a guy who went on tour to try to raise money

00:50:33.860 and awareness for NASA and, you know, keep things going.

00:50:36.740 He's obviously really accomplished, very, very bright, but how do you beat going to the

00:50:43.940 moon and he couldn't, he couldn't let that moment go.

00:50:49.060 I don't know if I could, but he couldn't let that moment go.

00:50:53.040 He's very different than Neil Armstrong.

00:50:55.520 What, what happened with Neil Armstrong?

00:50:57.840 Yeah.

00:50:58.040 Neil Armstrong was a different guy.

00:50:59.200 You know, they picked Neil Armstrong instead of Buzz Aldrin.

00:51:01.500 They had this moment where they had to pick who's the first one out.

00:51:03.960 That's a choice.

00:51:04.880 It's not just who gets to the door.

00:51:06.500 It was a clearly calculated plan.

00:51:09.500 And they picked Neil Armstrong to be the first one, as opposed to Buzz Aldrin, those big

00:51:13.580 controversy, Buzz obviously campaigned and wanted to be out there.

00:51:16.240 He was not chosen.

00:51:17.420 They picked Neil Armstrong because of his humility, because he was the guy who wasn't going to

00:51:21.320 put his face on a t-shirt and go out there and try and make money off of it because he

00:51:25.720 was just going to go back to Ohio and be fine with the achievement.

00:51:30.280 And, you know, I think, you know, the best way you can always show someone's character

00:51:33.620 is look at their childhood.

00:51:34.640 Neil Armstrong, when he was eight years old, the thing he wanted to do more than anything else,

00:51:38.540 he wanted to climb this big maple tree in his backyard.

00:51:42.100 And when you climb a tree, you got to make a plan.

00:51:45.080 It's a puzzle, right?

00:51:45.820 You grab one branch and then you got to grab this branch.

00:51:48.260 And as he's grabbing one of the dead branches, the branch snaps.

00:51:52.800 And Neil Armstrong falls 15 feet, lands flat on his back, has the wind knocked out of him.

00:51:57.620 His sister comes running over, says, are you OK?

00:51:59.980 She goes and grabs their mother. 1.00

00:52:01.840 The most important thing, and this is the opening of I Am Neil Armstrong, the children's

00:52:05.920 book, is this moment.

00:52:06.740 I teach my kids the most important thing that Neil Armstrong does after that moment

00:52:10.280 is he gets back up again.

00:52:12.300 He gets a job mowing grass in a cemetery because he wants to fly.

00:52:16.400 He buys toy planes, saves his money.

00:52:18.580 Then he saves up for a pilot's license.

00:52:20.560 He gets his pilot's license.

00:52:21.700 He's a teenager before he gets his driver's license, becomes a test pilot, of course,

00:52:25.400 an astronaut.

00:52:26.160 And we all today celebrate that giant leap for all mankind that Neil Armstrong took.

00:52:31.260 But we need to teach our kids that you don't get to take the giant leap until you take

00:52:36.780 the thousands of smaller steps before.

00:52:38.860 We got to teach our kids what hard work really means again.

00:52:41.380 That, to me, is what this children's book stands for.

00:52:43.640 And I think it shows, to answer your question, what and how Neil Armstrong was able to deal

00:52:48.780 with it.

00:52:49.220 Because he was built from that solid American value system that let him say, I am not my

00:52:54.740 achievement.

00:52:55.180 I'm just a man.

00:52:56.920 That's why he was fine.

00:52:58.420 Brad Meltzer, thank you so much.

00:52:59.960 I am Neil Armstrong.

00:53:01.100 It's available at bookstores everywhere.

00:53:03.260 His whole series of children's books are worth getting for your children or your grandchildren.

00:54:39.440 So GOP midterm, when it comes to the Senate,

00:54:44.520 uh, you know, McConnell's talking about, there's a knife fight going on.

00:54:49.060 We might lose the Senate.

00:54:50.180 Well, you might, you might.

00:54:51.640 Whose fault is that?

00:54:52.480 Mine?

00:54:54.400 Whose fault?

00:54:55.300 Whose fault is that?

00:54:56.280 Donald Trump's?

00:54:57.500 No, it's not.

00:54:59.280 It's the house and the Senate.

00:55:01.380 It, it, it, it, I mean, what did you do?

00:55:04.260 You pass the tax cuts.

00:55:06.140 You've confirmed the judges.

00:55:07.740 Okay.

00:55:08.640 So that's good.

00:55:10.260 Um, you, the tax cut wasn't that great.

00:55:15.100 It was not a great tax cut, though.

00:55:16.900 I think it improved the situation.

00:55:18.280 It did.

00:55:18.500 It helped.

00:55:19.000 It helped.

00:55:19.780 It wasn't great.

00:55:20.560 You're spending like you're, you're out of your mind.

00:55:23.540 Crazy.

00:55:24.140 Yep.

00:55:24.300 Worse than Obama.

00:55:25.120 Yeah.

00:55:25.460 Spending.

00:55:25.900 And that's your fault.

00:55:26.780 That's not the president's fault.

00:55:27.820 That's your fault.

00:55:28.380 He signed it.

00:55:28.880 But yeah, everybody, everybody's responsible for that.

00:55:30.960 He's going to sign anything.

00:55:32.600 Like I would have signed anything back then.

00:55:34.780 You know, if they would have, if they would have had cuts, he would have signed it.

00:55:38.340 Um, yes, they lost the Obamacare thing.

00:55:41.500 Donald Trump didn't.

00:55:42.680 No, he would have signed that too.

00:55:43.680 Yeah.

00:55:44.100 The thing, the only reason why I'm voting for GOP Senate is because, not because I'm for

00:55:50.600 the GOP, not because I think they're doing a great job.

00:55:53.520 It's just because we're going to have another Supreme Court justice or maybe two.

00:55:59.360 Uh, and I want to be able to get those three.

00:56:01.720 So the judges thing, and maybe if they surprise me and they're mind controlled by aliens for

00:56:08.860 a day and decide to actually do something good for the country and the constitution,

00:56:13.500 you know, maybe that could happen.

00:56:15.600 Stranger things have happened.

00:56:17.080 It's hard to have a lot of passion about it.

00:56:18.520 Plus, if they lose the house, then that's off the table.

00:56:21.420 The potential good thing is, except for the, yeah, the judges will still be.

00:56:27.160 Judges will still be.

00:56:28.000 And that's important.

00:56:28.860 Yeah.

00:56:29.000 Um, but the, but, you know, the house, the only thing you'll see really from the house

00:56:33.040 being lost is because, I mean, they're not doing anything.

00:56:35.200 So what do you lose?

00:56:36.140 The one thing you will probably lose is you'll likely get an impeachment of the president,

00:56:39.660 but he won't be removed from office.

00:56:41.560 No.

00:56:41.700 So it won't really matter all that much.

00:56:43.660 Unless there's something new, but I haven't seen anything.

00:56:46.400 No.

00:56:46.640 There's, I mean, I don't even think a close Senate, uh, is going to.

00:56:49.800 No.

00:56:49.980 You have to get 67 votes.

00:56:51.540 Yeah.

00:56:51.620 It's not going to happen.

00:56:52.120 Even if the Democrats control the Senate, you're not going to get him thrown out of office.

00:56:55.120 It's just, it's a waste of time in many ways.

00:56:57.400 Yeah.

00:56:57.640 So thanks GOP.

00:56:59.220 We gave you house, Senate, and administration.

00:57:02.100 What did you do with it?

00:57:02.900 Matt Walsh is a, uh, one of just a great, great writer, uh, and somebody who really sees

00:57:15.360 the, uh, world and refuses to go down the path of insanity.

00:57:19.980 Uh, he wrote for many years for the blaze.

00:57:22.260 He's now with the daily wire.

00:57:23.600 I have been following his work on what's happening with the Catholic church because he's Catholic.

00:57:28.380 And I'd, I'd like to get somebody's opinion who doesn't have an ax to grind, uh, with

00:57:33.600 religion or the Catholic church.

00:57:35.060 So Matt, welcome to the program.

00:57:36.580 How are you?

00:57:38.060 Hey, Glenn.

00:57:38.560 Thanks for having me.

00:57:39.440 So, uh, can you tell me what the hell happened with the Pope yesterday?

00:57:47.020 Well, uh, that's, I mean, what is it?

00:57:50.140 There's a few things going on, but, um, I think the thing that's caught a lot of people's

00:57:53.440 lies here in the United States is that, uh, he got up and, and said that, uh, Satan is

00:58:00.500 at work in the church, which I, I agree with that part of it, but, uh, he said that Satan

00:58:05.160 is at work amongst the accusers.

00:58:08.020 Satan is the great accuser and he is, uh, he is, you know, victimizing the poor bishops

00:58:13.120 through, I, I guess I didn't specify any more than that, but I guess he's saying that, uh,

00:58:18.580 the people that are accusing the bishops are Satan and, um, and there have been also the

00:58:23.540 faithful Catholics who are demanding answers.

00:58:25.320 I guess we are also in league with Satan.

00:58:27.540 That appears to be what the Pope is, is insinuating.

00:58:30.740 And I find it, I find it absolutely horrific.

00:58:33.840 Tell me a little bit about the, the scandal in Pennsylvania, because depending on who you're

00:58:40.460 listening to, uh, I don't know who to believe, uh, you know, you, you, you listen to the New

00:58:46.620 York times and their spin is yes, these things happened, but most of them happened a long

00:58:52.820 time ago.

00:58:53.540 Uh, and the, the, while the, the Pope was involved a little bit, it's more on the fringes

00:59:01.560 and this is only being brought up because this is a war between the people who want a more

00:59:07.820 traditional church and, you know, the, the people who agree with Francis.

00:59:13.120 Yeah, it's a very weird thing for, um, for, you know, traditional, quote unquote, traditional

00:59:19.500 Catholics like myself.

00:59:20.200 It's a weird thing to see the media all of a sudden circling the wagons around the Vatican.

00:59:24.700 It's just, we've never seen anything like this.

00:59:26.800 Usually they're, usually they're very eager to, uh, blame the Vatican for anything.

00:59:32.500 But so in, in, uh, in Pennsylvania, you do have, you know, you have the grand jury report

00:59:37.300 from about a month ago, I guess now, which, uh, talks about abuses among, among, uh, priests

00:59:43.460 and also coverups, uh, by bishops.

00:59:45.260 And that dates back, you know, it goes back, I think 50 or 60 years and much of it, a good,

00:59:50.040 a good percentage of, of those abuses, um, were, you know, 20 years or, or, or more older.

00:59:57.720 Um, and so I guess some apologists are now using that as a reason to say, well, look, this,

01:00:02.500 this problem has been contained since then.

01:00:04.560 So this is old news and maybe they could get away with that.

01:00:09.060 Maybe they'd get away with that excuse, if not for the fact that there has been this

01:00:12.760 problem in dioceses across the country.

01:00:15.560 And now they're talking about another investigation in New York, another one in New Jersey.

01:00:19.780 Now on top of that, you have two other things as well.

01:00:21.820 You've got Cardinal McCarrick and we're the most prominent Cardinal in the United States

01:00:26.620 and what's been, uh, who's, who's, you know, all this information is coming out about him

01:00:30.060 now and his abuse, not just of children, but of seminarians, of young men.

01:00:33.840 And then you've got someone in the Vatican, a high ranking, former high ranking official

01:00:37.480 who wrote an 11 page letter indicting the Pope himself and accusing him personally of covering

01:00:43.320 up.

01:00:43.540 So all of these things together just make it impossible to, uh, minimize this or to claim

01:00:48.780 that it's all in the past because it's not, this is right now, these are things happening

01:00:51.440 right now.

01:00:51.680 And what about the claim that this Cardinal in the 11 page letter, this guy has been against

01:00:56.480 Francis the whole time and is just using this to try to get to Francis?

01:01:00.860 Well, number one, it's irrelevant, but that's just, that's just a character assassination.

01:01:04.340 And it's true that even if it's true that he's, he's got some kind of axe to grind with

01:01:07.480 Pope Francis, that doesn't mean that he's wrong about what he's saying.

01:01:10.380 The question is, is, are the accusations true or not?

01:01:14.320 And it's, it's very relevant that of all the men accused by Vigano, Archbishop Vigano,

01:01:18.960 the accuser of all the men accused, none of them have actually denied it.

01:01:21.800 Not a single one, including the Pope.

01:01:23.260 But secondly, that's actually not true.

01:01:25.180 This Archbishop Vigano has had a long reputation as someone who is a whistleblower, who stands

01:01:32.760 against corruption, you know, is not afraid to root out corruption.

01:01:35.780 That's what he has, that's what he has a reputation for.

01:01:39.520 He has a reputation for trying to undermine the Pope.

01:01:41.480 This is the first time he's ever done this.

01:01:43.320 You know, it's the Pope, the Pope has been there for six or seven years.

01:01:45.700 It's the first time Vigano has come out and said anything like this against the Pope.

01:01:49.780 So I just, I think that accusation is just incorrect.

01:01:51.900 So what does the average Catholic do now?

01:01:55.540 What, what are they, what are they thinking?

01:01:58.860 You know, that's a million dollar question.

01:02:00.400 And I, and there are a lot of Catholics who, you know, I hear from a lot of Catholics and

01:02:03.440 talk to a lot of Catholics personally, and many of them are on the edge of, or over the

01:02:08.080 edge of despair at this point, because they just look at the church and they, and they

01:02:12.700 think, well, I think for a lot of, especially for a lot of devout Catholics, I'm talking

01:02:17.180 about the ones who really care about their faith and go to church.

01:02:19.080 You really try to live according to it.

01:02:20.760 The thing is, it's not, it's not, you know, it's not easy to live according to the teachings

01:02:24.640 of the church.

01:02:25.320 A lot is asked of us, and I think rightfully so.

01:02:28.260 But then when we look and, you know, we're, we're, we're trying so hard to live according

01:02:31.120 to these teachings and making all the sacrifices necessary.

01:02:33.180 And then we look and we see that the people running the church don't apparently even care

01:02:37.060 about these teachings at all.

01:02:38.560 It's, it's, it's, it's very deflating.

01:02:40.460 But what I would say, you know, as a Catholic, you know, I'm not leaving the church over this.

01:02:44.200 I think either you believe that the Catholic church is the true faith and you believe that

01:02:50.500 it has a historical claim to being the true church or not.

01:02:54.240 And if you don't believe that, then I guess you're not Catholic, you shouldn't be Catholic.

01:02:57.800 But if you do believe that, then I think these scandals, as awful as they are, they don't

01:03:01.620 change that, don't change that simple thing.

01:03:04.560 All they mean, and we should keep in mind as Christians that, look, I mean, Jesus Christ

01:03:08.680 chose 12 apostles, one denied them, one, one betrayed them.

01:03:12.200 Only one was, was there with them at the cross on Calvary.

01:03:15.080 So there's, there's a long precedent of, of this kind of treachery going all the way

01:03:20.240 back to the very beginning.

01:03:22.480 The Pope, however, being the leader, I mean, when I saw this story break, we were on the

01:03:28.780 air and I said, you know, if I'm the Pope, I get onto the plane today and I hold a press

01:03:35.580 conference in Philadelphia or Pittsburgh and I say, I am here because we take this seriously

01:03:41.380 and the children are the most precious to us.

01:03:44.580 I mean, you want to be Francis, that's what you do.

01:03:47.700 And you, you hit it straight on for him to, to, to not answer any of the questions.

01:03:57.300 And, and then on top of it to come out later and say, well, you know, it's the devil is making

01:04:04.000 people do this is in my opinion, obscene.

01:04:10.000 I mean, it is obscene.

01:04:11.280 I mean, there's, there's, there's, you know, you could use a lot of different words to describe

01:04:14.260 it.

01:04:14.920 I think that the Pope's behavior throughout this entire scandal and apparently going

01:04:19.320 back, you know, through his entire papacy, according to Vigo, his behavior has been cowardly.

01:04:24.360 It's been despicable.

01:04:25.820 I mean, like I said, it's, it's just, and it, for, again, for a devout Catholic to say

01:04:30.720 those kinds of things about Pope, I mean, I don't say that kind of stuff lightly.

01:04:33.740 I mean, I would say that lightly maybe about a politician, but I don't say it lightly about

01:04:37.280 the Pope because I do have so much obvious respect for the office of the Pope.

01:04:42.880 But because of that, and I, when I see what this man is doing to that office now, in my

01:04:47.920 opinion, he's acting in ways that are disgraceful.

01:04:51.640 So I think we have no choice, but as Catholics, but to stand up and say that.

01:04:55.380 So what does that, what does that mean?

01:04:57.780 Does it, is there a chance this Pope is removed from office or leaves office because of this?

01:05:05.640 As far as I know, there's not any way to actually remove a Pope because he's not a president

01:05:10.640 and he can't really be impeached as far as I know.

01:05:15.940 However, I do think that bishops and cardinals and the laity, if they were to stand up and

01:05:21.620 essentially one voice and say, there need to be big changes, this Pope has failed us,

01:05:27.600 he needs to step down.

01:05:29.280 I think if that pressure was put on and there were enough people saying that and being consistent

01:05:34.940 in their outcry, I think maybe this Pope could be, let's say, encouraged to step down.

01:05:41.600 But I think, I hope that will happen.

01:05:43.660 I think it should.

01:05:44.500 I don't think it will, though, because this Pope has obviously shown what his strategy is

01:05:48.500 going to be, and that's going to be, number one, to ignore the charges that are specifically

01:05:51.800 against him.

01:05:52.320 He said nothing about them.

01:05:53.660 And then, number two, to recast the entire thing as, you know, essentially making the

01:05:58.380 bishops into victims.

01:06:00.340 And in order to get past that, what would be needed is, you know, the laity, we need to

01:06:04.760 stay focused on this issue.

01:06:06.400 Even as the media forgets about it and disregards it, and as the Pope doesn't address it, we

01:06:12.060 would have to stay focused.

01:06:13.380 But unfortunately, in, you know, modern society, it's hard to keep people focused and concentrated

01:06:17.980 on one issue for very long.

01:06:19.640 So I'm afraid that, like, a month from now, nobody's going to be talking about this anymore,

01:06:23.260 and the Pope will have just essentially gotten away with it.

01:06:25.380 That's what I'm afraid is going to happen.

01:06:26.680 Matt, this guy has not been, you know, traditional, and he's, you know, he's done a lot of things that

01:06:33.720 a lot of Catholics or traditionalists would say.

01:06:36.400 Okay, that's really weird.

01:06:38.260 This is in a totally different category.

01:06:40.280 Would you have ever expected this Pope to react this way to a scandal this big?

01:06:47.720 No, I didn't.

01:06:48.700 Although now that I see him acting this way, I see that there are plenty of reasons, there's

01:06:52.380 plenty of precedent for it, because this is actually, there's been this pattern, maybe

01:06:57.640 not with scandals up until now, but where he'll say something or issue some kind of

01:07:03.340 proclamation or write something that's very confusing to conservative Catholics, and we're

01:07:07.520 thinking, wait, wait, is he contradicting Catholic teaching?

01:07:09.580 What's going on here?

01:07:10.760 And then he's asked to clarify, and he just refuses to.

01:07:12.800 He's been doing that for the last six years.

01:07:14.760 So now he's just taking that strategy and applying it to this.

01:07:17.420 But no, I didn't, when these allegations came out against him personally, I really did

01:07:22.180 not, I honestly thought that he would at least say something within the first couple

01:07:26.940 of days.

01:07:27.240 The fact that he said nothing is to me, I mean, it's really shocking to me.

01:07:30.920 And I, as I said, I find it utterly, completely disgraceful.

01:07:35.040 I mean, for him to take the name of Francis, I don't think this is the way St. Francis

01:07:39.980 would have dealt with it.

01:07:42.280 No, certainly not.

01:07:43.360 And this is, I mean, this is, this is not how any, Pope or not, this is not how any Christian 0.95

01:07:47.740 should, should respond.

01:07:49.560 And I, you know, there are some people that have made excuses for the Pope saying, well,

01:07:52.660 when Jesus was accused, he didn't say anything.

01:07:55.880 You know, when Herod accused, when he was talking to Herod, Jesus refused to respond.

01:07:59.480 But this is not the same thing.

01:08:01.080 And the problem, when Jesus refused to answer accusations against him, the reason why, in

01:08:06.920 those cases, why he refused, is because the accusations were disingenuous.

01:08:11.340 They were made in bad faith.

01:08:12.800 The people that were saying it didn't really mean it, didn't really care.

01:08:15.040 They were just looking for an excuse to crucify him.

01:08:17.140 And Jesus knew that, so he wasn't going to entertain it or humor it.

01:08:20.020 That's why Jesus remained silent.

01:08:21.560 That's not the case here.

01:08:22.720 People are, there's actually real scandal going on.

01:08:25.340 People are legitimately distressed and in despair over it, and they want some leadership and

01:08:30.320 they want answers.

01:08:31.580 And so for the Pope to look at those people and treat them like we're all a bunch of Herods,

01:08:36.140 it's, I mean, it's unthinkable.

01:08:38.660 Matt Walsh, thank you very much.

01:08:40.940 We'll continue to read your blog on The Daily Wire, and thank you for keeping us abreast on

01:08:48.300 what's happening.

01:08:49.260 Matt Walsh from The Daily Wire.

01:08:50.800 I've been telling you about Goldline's new silver maple flex card that allows you to

01:08:58.700 break off smaller pieces for barter and trade.

01:09:01.640 This is a silver bar here.

01:09:04.140 It's worth, I think it's, is it, it's one, so it's two, I think this is two ounces of silver.

01:09:12.240 When it comes to protecting yourself, your family, your portfolios, you want to make sure

01:09:17.060 you have maximum flexibility and diversity.

01:09:19.620 It's why I have both gold and silver.

01:09:22.620 I mentioned before, when I talked to Goldline, I asked them to create a bar of gold that

01:09:30.260 you could carry around, that you could break up in small little pieces and carry it around

01:09:34.620 in case, you know, you ever found yourself in trouble and keep it something you could

01:09:37.960 even keep in your wallet.

01:09:39.380 Well, this is the same thing, except it's a maple flex bar from the Canadian mint, and

01:09:45.140 it's all made out of silver.

01:09:46.320 It holds five individually sealed 110-ounce gold bars.

01:09:51.780 They're also minted by the Royal Canadian Mint.

01:09:55.620 And this has a quarter ounce, let's see, one-tenth of an ounce and one-twentieth of an ounce

01:10:03.420 silver.

01:10:04.880 So if things went really badly, you're going to be able to use this.

01:10:08.460 You owe it to yourself to call Goldline and learn more about gold or silver and find out

01:10:13.740 if it's right for you.

01:10:15.180 Ask them about the maple flex bar and also the maple flex in gold as well.

01:10:20.300 Call 866-GOLDLINE, 1-866-GOLDLINE or goldline.com.

01:10:28.740 Glenn Beck.

01:10:30.820 Two to four million people are bought and sold across international borders every year.

01:10:36.820 Fifty percent of those human slaves are the most innocent of all of us. 0.97

01:10:41.120 Children, the average age of those kids is a horrifying 11 to 14 years old.

01:10:46.840 It's a $32 billion-a-year industry.

01:10:51.480 Just hearing these numbers makes everything seem utterly hopeless.

01:10:55.800 But there is hope.

01:10:57.720 A group of heroes are on the ground, operating in the deepest, darkest corners of the world,

01:11:03.500 fighting for every single child.

01:11:05.820 So I stole away in the bathroom.

01:11:07.520 The girls are here. 0.73

01:11:09.400 The bust is going to happen in a second now.

01:11:11.880 Cops are on their way.

01:11:12.960 So hopefully this all goes down safely and hopefully the bad guys go away and we save all these kids here.

01:11:18.160 We followed Operation Underground Railroad on a hair-raising and intense operation

01:11:23.420 to rescue multiple child slaves.

01:11:26.980 What's it like to be one of the heroes?

01:11:29.380 Tune in to The Glenn Beck Show, tonight at 5 p.m. Eastern, only on The Blaze TV.

01:11:34.000 Remarkable.

01:11:36.540 It's just remarkable what's happening.

01:11:39.120 You know, when that promo said, you know, hearing those kinds of numbers, things seem hopeless.

01:11:44.060 To me, it actually seems, it puts everything into perspective.

01:11:48.460 It makes everything else seem worthless.

01:11:51.020 You know what I mean?

01:11:51.540 All the arguments that we're having right now, I just, I urge you to break your addiction to that.

01:11:59.200 Uh, and, uh, disengage in that and let's start doing things.

01:12:04.080 It's September 12th.

01:12:06.500 It's September 12th.

01:12:09.360 Recommit yourself to do the things that actually make a difference.

01:12:15.600 On September 12th, we all looked at each other and we all said to one another,

01:12:19.980 I can't believe how fragile this thing is.

01:12:23.940 I mean, we're at war.

01:12:25.740 We could lose this.

01:12:26.800 We are closer to losing it than we were on 9-11 today.

01:12:33.920 And we're not talking about just America.

01:12:36.160 We're talking about the entire Western world.

01:12:39.960 Commit yourself to breaking the addiction to outrage and the game that is being played.

01:12:45.720 And I, and I urge you to understand the game because it's not the game that was being played in 2001 or 2008 or 2012 or even 2016.

01:12:59.580 This is the end game.

01:13:01.420 I firmly believe this is the end game.

01:13:04.500 And I try to outline it the best I can in the new book, Addicted to Outrage.

01:13:12.320 As a friend of mine who just read it finished last night said, it's like three books in one.

01:13:16.920 And he said, I kept, as I was reading it, I kept thinking, why aren't there, you know, you should have written three books.

01:13:23.720 And he said, then I got to the third section and I realized, oh, of course, it has to be in one book.

01:13:33.060 It has to be this way.

01:13:35.260 Change your thinking and change your life.

01:13:38.540 Addicted to Outrage is available in bookstores next week.

01:13:42.820 It's available online right now at Amazon.com or wherever books are sold.

01:13:47.820 More in a minute.

01:13:51.780 Glenn Beck.

01:13:53.740 Today is 9-12.

01:13:55.960 9-12.

01:13:59.020 The day America came together.

01:14:03.020 9-11, we were frightened.

01:14:05.060 9-12, we were Americans.

01:14:06.380 And we weren't pumping our fist in the air.

01:14:10.720 We were.

01:14:12.700 We were humble with open hearts and open hands to help.

01:14:17.860 Recommit yourself to that.

01:14:20.640 Huge, devastating hurricane is headed towards now the Carolinas and all the way down the eastern seaboard.

01:14:29.460 It looks like it's going to arrive tomorrow and then just ride the coast and go south, which is a worst-case scenario.

01:14:38.740 If it actually hits this way, it's a worst-case scenario.

01:14:44.960 Please help.

01:14:46.060 You can go to mercuryone.org.

01:14:49.200 We are already stationing supplies.

01:14:51.440 We have over 200 semi-trucks on the road right now with water and food and shovels and chainsaws and everything else.

01:14:58.040 Please, we could use your assistance at mercuryone.org.

01:15:01.660 I want to start this hour with, imagine going into school or going into class, college, high school, anything, and your professor puts this on your desk and says, we need you to sign this.

01:15:16.900 And it says, please drop the class immediately if you're triggered by free speech, the free exchange of ideas or people who express and defend ideas or opinions that differ from your own.

01:15:30.000 Please drop the class immediately if you're triggered by open, direct, and adult discussion of issues, including but not limited to issues of faith, war, violence, race, gender, or sexuality.

01:15:40.920 Please drop the class immediately if you're triggered by recurring encounters with heterosexuality, traditional gender identities, sympathetic representations of Christianity or religion in general, positive examples of free markets and capitalism, or an unapologetic encounter with patriotism, hierarchies, and meritocracy-based institutions or attitudes.

01:16:04.780 Drop the class immediately if you feel entitled to censor the thoughts or words of others or insist they tailor their language or attitudes to your preferences.

01:16:17.080 I will tell you that if I would have seen, I would have laughed.

01:16:21.720 I would have thought it was a joke.

01:16:24.380 I guess if it was happening in a communist country, I would have said, wow, I got to get home.

01:16:31.900 But who would disagree with that?

01:16:34.780 We're going to talk to the professor who actually has to write this document and have his students sign it.

01:16:44.680 Next.

01:16:47.500 It's Wednesday, September 12th.

01:16:50.120 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:16:53.580 Associate Professor, University of Wisconsin.

01:16:56.220 Oof.

01:16:57.400 From Wisconsin, Oshkosh.

01:17:01.320 He is James Duke Pesta.

01:17:03.700 Do you prefer to be called Duke or James or Jim or?

01:17:07.520 Duke, please.

01:17:08.180 Duke.

01:17:08.840 So, Duke.

01:17:10.440 I mean, I can't even imagine sitting in a class and receiving this.

01:17:14.160 What is the reaction when you pass this out?

01:17:16.300 You know, it's interesting.

01:17:17.800 And I respect the oof you gave me when you mentioned the University of Wisconsin.

01:17:23.340 So that, I appreciate that.

01:17:25.220 But the response I get from kids is almost overwhelmingly what you said.

01:17:29.820 They kind of, their eyes widen, they laugh a little bit.

01:17:32.980 And a lot of them come, I had a kid, classes started for us this week.

01:17:36.200 And so I had a kid when I gave it out yesterday for the first time who came up to me afterwards

01:17:40.320 and she wanted to know if I had three copies for her grandparents and her dad who are going to love it.

01:17:44.740 But the response has been really positive.

01:17:48.120 I think these kids, even progressive kids, when I get liberal kids in my classes, they will say to me,

01:17:52.880 you know, it's just nice to have an environment where we can talk about things without fear of having to please the professor.

01:17:59.100 So let me ask you, let me ask you this.

01:18:02.360 I see these, these protests happening and I see these classes that are being shut down and people come in and they're like, you know,

01:18:10.220 you know, chanting something and then everybody has to chant back.

01:18:13.540 And I've noticed that most of the students are not chanting back.

01:18:16.920 It's almost like everybody's just like, oh, dear God.

01:18:19.260 Okay, just get it over with.

01:18:20.820 Are the students today open to hearing other opinions?

01:18:31.340 They're just not getting the chance to hear other opinions?

01:18:36.420 I think the really strong majority, the silent majority of college kids, they're paying for these classes.

01:18:41.560 They've taken out student loans.

01:18:43.400 They signed up for courses.

01:18:44.900 They wouldn't have signed up for a course if they thought that course was going to just be nothing but insulting to them.

01:18:49.560 So they signed up for courses in goodwill and they're willing to give teachers and more than teachers,

01:18:54.420 they're willing to give books a fair hearing.

01:18:56.920 It's a very small number of these protesters that seem to drive the reaction.

01:19:01.400 And a lot of, again, like a lot of liberal kids I've talked to, a lot of my progressive students, they just roll their eyes at it.

01:19:06.820 And so I think you're right exactly that it's a small number and they're very vocal.

01:19:10.940 But I do think we have created, the faculty and the administration have allowed there to become a climate of fear.

01:19:17.560 It's worse than McCarthyism.

01:19:19.700 It's this argument, this idea that these kids know that if they make one false flip or they say the wrong thing

01:19:25.780 or they use the wrong pronoun, God forbid, when they're addressing somebody,

01:19:31.020 that they could be put into a very invasive investigation process.

01:19:35.400 And so I think that the reason more kids aren't speaking out is because the faculty and the administration

01:19:40.160 have the back of a handful of protesters at the expense of the vast majority of their own students.

01:19:45.700 What is this going to mean when they get out of school?

01:19:48.380 If they're used to this and they've seen this work?

01:19:52.060 Well, I think we see it culturally, right?

01:19:53.920 What is Antifa?

01:19:54.880 What is the fact that you've got all these young social media executives,

01:19:58.960 the 20-somethings who are working at Google and Facebook and Twitter,

01:20:01.840 who gleefully go about their business censoring and pulling conservative websites off,

01:20:07.220 loading algorithms to bury conservative news?

01:20:10.840 I think you see it in our young athletes, right?

01:20:14.020 The younger athletes that are graduating now who are shockingly ignorant of history,

01:20:18.400 can't string a sentence together, but very often are the quickest to kneel for any cause.

01:20:23.760 I think you see it across the board in our culture that younger, younger generations,

01:20:28.020 that's a statistic that you guys have talked about very eloquently,

01:20:30.940 when you've got something like 57% of young millennials who see socialism positive,

01:20:35.940 I think that's what we're in for a lot more of.

01:20:38.800 So I want to talk to you a little bit about postmodernism,

01:20:41.680 because you wrote a book, The Renaissance and the Postmodern.

01:20:47.660 And it's amazing to me, the more I read about postmodernism,

01:20:53.860 which I believe is the root of this problem.

01:20:57.280 Would you agree with that first?

01:20:58.620 Absolutely.

01:20:59.020 Okay, so as I read about postmodernism, and I see how it was designed,

01:21:05.060 who it was designed by, why it was designed,

01:21:07.500 I can't think of anything that is positive.

01:21:10.080 It's all about destruction, and destruction of really bringing us back

01:21:16.400 at best-case scenario to the Renaissance, best case,

01:21:21.440 where some thinkers are there, but they're going to be locked in a tower,

01:21:24.760 and they have to keep it secret, and they have to write in code.

01:21:27.380 Yeah, I think the fundamental premise of all progressive postmodernism,

01:21:32.240 because progressivism is behind this.

01:21:34.900 And I've made this argument many times.

01:21:36.580 I think the single underreported story about our university campuses,

01:21:40.020 forget the intolerance, forget the bias response teams, forget all that.

01:21:43.660 I think the biggest problem we have, and no one's talking about it,

01:21:46.680 is how did we allow radically leftist activist political philosophy

01:21:52.060 to be the way we force kids to read books across the humanities,

01:21:55.560 whether you're in art history, or history, or philosophy, or English, or sociology, or anthropology.

01:22:00.200 You are reading books now when you get them, not for what the books say,

01:22:03.720 but you're reading them as feminist readings, or Marxist readings, or environmentalist readings.

01:22:07.840 The entire methodology of postmodernism is deconstructive.

01:22:11.460 There's actually a philosophy called deconstruction.

01:22:14.260 An obscure French theorist by the name of Jacques Derrida formulated it,

01:22:18.020 and the entire premise is that words don't mean what they say they mean if you want them not to.

01:22:22.980 And so you go through books, rather than trying to learn from them,

01:22:25.880 rather than trying to stand on the shoulders of giants

01:22:28.720 and add to the common civilizational knowledge of the last 2,000 years of Western culture,

01:22:33.760 you are instead taking an axe to the very root of liberty, of equality, of freedom, of reason, of logic.

01:22:41.440 I mean, we see the degree to which, even in the math and science programs now on college campuses,

01:22:46.200 they're calling the scientific method a holdover of white supremacy,

01:22:50.200 the emphasis on logic and correct answers in math classes in Common Core.

01:22:54.320 You guys have talked about this.

01:22:55.800 It's not so important anymore that holding kids accountable to a standard of math

01:22:59.900 is itself a kind of oppression.

01:23:01.780 And so you're right. It's exactly right.

01:23:03.060 It's completely deconstructive.

01:23:04.960 It's a wrecking ball.

01:23:06.140 And I tell my students every day, the first day of every class,

01:23:09.820 I say, with postmodernism, you don't have to contribute anything.

01:23:12.880 You just have to know how to knock things over.

01:23:14.540 It's easy to knock things down.

01:23:15.860 It's really hard to build them.

01:23:18.000 So what is the answer?

01:23:20.760 I mean, you know, you're getting press because you put this statement out,

01:23:26.080 and it's incredible to me that you have to do that.

01:23:29.340 It's incredible to me that you've made the statement,

01:23:31.400 you know, hey, most kids are open to giving books a chance.

01:23:37.300 What?

01:23:39.040 I mean, it's incredible.

01:23:41.200 What is the solution to this cancer that is eating at us?

01:23:48.640 I honestly think there are a lot of solutions,

01:23:51.280 and they're at a lot of levels.

01:23:52.740 Some of it's financial parents pulling their kids out.

01:23:55.480 The fact that a lot of our kids really are going to college

01:23:57.760 because they think they have to, they don't really need to.

01:23:59.580 But if you ask me as a professor of English,

01:24:02.440 and I think I'm the only conservative English professor I've met in 25 years as a professor.

01:24:07.280 I can't think of seven different universities.

01:24:09.020 I can't think of another one I've worked with.

01:24:11.760 And if you ask me, the single biggest problem we have is exactly that.

01:24:14.700 If you allow kids to read the great books of Western culture as they are written,

01:24:19.800 they will not turn out to be social justice warriors.

01:24:23.060 25 years ago when I got started, Glenn,

01:24:24.740 what they were doing was they were putting the text of Western culture alongside postmodern texts.

01:24:31.580 So kids got to read Shakespeare, but then they would read a feminist argument about Shakespeare. 1.00

01:24:35.760 And nine times out of ten, kids recognized that Shakespeare was greater than the feminist theory.

01:24:39.940 He was a greater thinker.

01:24:41.300 And then recently what we've done over the last ten years is we've started removing the great authors over and over again,

01:24:47.140 replacing in literature and history and philosophy highly politicized texts.

01:24:52.280 So you're reading Tunisi Coates now in history rather than reading Adam Smith.

01:24:56.940 And so you're already now reading books that start from a social justice mindset more than you're not.

01:25:02.880 Then the theory that you're allowed to engage those books with is all progressive political activist left-wing theory.

01:25:08.500 And so there is no way for kids now to even see through a clear window what the great minds of Western culture have thought.

01:25:16.420 If we can go back to depoliticizing the way kids read books, let kids first read Shakespeare or Milton or Chaucer from the context of the cultures that wrote them,

01:25:27.400 then we would go a long way to reclaiming San Indiana College campus.

01:25:30.700 But, of course, this is the one thing the professors don't want to do, because if they do that,

01:25:34.320 then their social justice message gets watered down and undercut.

01:25:38.020 Yeah, if you're only teaching from the postmodern perspective, you can easily create this feeling that, well,

01:25:47.880 you're just too stupid to get it, and you're just not in on the in crowd. 0.88

01:25:52.440 And it's people who applaud when everybody else is applauding or people who laugh, and it's a common instinct,

01:25:58.700 people who laugh when everybody else is laughing, even though you don't really get the joke.

01:26:01.860 But if you if you have something beside it, I've I've seen students who are starving for something that makes sense to them.

01:26:12.840 And when they hear it, they're like, oh, my gosh, how come I'm not how come I've never heard this before?

01:26:18.980 Bingo. I think the greatest compliment I've ever gotten as a teacher is not that I love you.

01:26:22.740 Your classes are great. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:26:24.460 When I get kids come up to me and say to me, how come, Dr. Pesta, I'm 24 years old.

01:26:28.740 How come I've never heard this before in my schooling? How come 20 years of school?

01:26:32.180 I've no one's ever said this to me. It's really easy to blow away the smoke cloud of theoretical liberalism

01:26:38.900 if you hit them with good ideas that are grounded in good arguments.

01:26:43.000 That's what Western culture has done better than any culture, the great writers of Western culture.

01:26:46.720 And yet it's so obscured to our kids. I'll give you a real short anecdote.

01:26:50.280 First day of class, kids were reading just this was just yesterday.

01:26:52.980 Kids were reading the first two acts of measure for measure. Shakespeare's great play, measure for measure.

01:26:57.000 And so when we were talking about it, I asked them, I said, okay, so how'd you do?

01:27:01.380 And one girl raised her hand and she said, look, it was very hard. I didn't really understand it.

01:27:05.340 I said, okay, because no one's ever taught you to read Shakespeare. She goes, that's right.

01:27:08.860 I said, tell me what you took from it. She said, well, I could tell that the women were victims and the men were oppressors.

01:27:15.400 And I said to her, how do you know that? She goes, honestly, because of my other classes,

01:27:19.700 I don't know it from being able to read the play.

01:27:21.780 And I said to her, have you ever read The Brothers Karamazov? She said, no.

01:27:25.900 I said, right now, do for me a feminist reading of The Brothers Karamazov, even though you've never read it.

01:27:31.540 The whole class laughed and she looked at me for a second. 0.94

01:27:33.540 Then she said, well, the men are oppressors and the women are victims.

01:27:36.780 And I said, bingo.

01:27:37.860 I said, to do the kind of progressive leftist readings that you are required to do in our English department,

01:27:43.900 you don't even have to read stupid books anymore.

01:27:45.720 You can just say what you said, and you have mastered from our perspective what we want you to take away from books,

01:27:51.880 but you will know nothing about what the actual text said.

01:27:54.420 And she agreed with me.

01:27:57.080 Wow. I wish there were more people like you in the university.

01:28:01.480 Duke, thank you so much.

01:28:03.840 I hope to meet you someday.

01:28:06.460 I know you are instrumental and have been in Common Core and getting that beast exposed.

01:28:14.340 And I just thank you for your courage.

01:28:18.440 Thank you for continuing to stand, not giving in.

01:28:21.700 For anybody who's a new professor or a young professor, got any tips?

01:28:25.820 You know, don't keep your powder dry.

01:28:28.100 What I was told is keep your powder dry until you get tenure and then speak your mind.

01:28:32.100 I never did it.

01:28:33.080 It cost me a lot of trouble.

01:28:34.520 But looking back at my life now as a professor, I'm glad I spoke out even before I wasn't protected.

01:28:39.640 Because if we start doing more of that, there's more hope for all of us.

01:28:42.480 Dr. Duke, thank you so much.

01:28:45.800 Thank you very much, Glenn.

01:28:46.800 You bet.

01:28:47.220 You can find him at Duke Pesta, P-E-S-T-A, or the DrDukeShow.com.

01:28:55.440 I think that's a show I want to watch or listen to or whatever it is he's doing unless he's dancing.

01:29:00.600 That's amazing to hear someone in the middle of that.

01:29:03.760 I mean, that's all the stuff that you talk about in Addicted to Outrage.

01:29:06.660 And he's actually in the middle of it, dealing with it on an everyday basis.

01:29:11.440 It's scary because once they learn that approach to everything, if someone isn't there like this professor to step up and stop them and get them to rethink it.

01:29:20.380 And they're not.

01:29:20.980 He just said, I think I'm the only conservative English professor in the country.

01:29:27.320 Yeah.

01:29:28.020 I mean, that's saying something.

01:29:30.060 All right.

01:29:31.180 I want to tell you about Casper.

01:29:33.280 How are you sleeping?

01:29:34.780 Are you waking up rested?

01:29:37.460 Are you waking up after a full night's sleep?

01:29:41.640 Are you tossing and turning?

01:29:42.880 Are you waking up several times a night?

01:29:44.780 There's nothing worse.

01:29:46.920 There's nothing worse.

01:29:48.120 I got to the point to where I hated going to bed.

01:29:52.040 Hated it because I was not going to sleep.

01:29:55.160 And so I'd toss and turn all night.

01:29:57.140 I hated it.

01:29:58.140 Part of the problem is the right bed.

01:30:01.420 You have to have a great mattress that fits you.

01:30:04.860 I want you to try Casper.

01:30:06.960 You can try it in your own home for 100 nights.

01:30:09.320 If it's not yours, you know, it's not for you.

01:30:12.280 If you don't love it, it's not everybody's going to love it because we're all different.

01:30:16.200 If you don't love it, they'll come and pick it up and refund every penny.

01:30:19.720 But you got to try it in your own home.

01:30:22.080 Unlike, you know, where you go to stores.

01:30:23.660 I've purchased beds like that.

01:30:25.100 You go into a store and you flop around on it for 20 minutes and you're in your clothes and your shoes and everything else.

01:30:31.040 And you're like, I guess I like this one, I guess.

01:30:33.240 You don't know.

01:30:33.980 You can get home and it's horrible.

01:31:02.960 Also, tonight we have an amazing 5 o'clock show for you about a rescue operation in Peru.

01:31:13.320 Peru, where our cameras went with and one of our guys was, you know, part of the team.

01:31:20.760 And, you know, at one point he's he goes into the bathroom all by himself just to make a report.

01:31:25.100 OK, this is the police are about to come.

01:31:27.680 This is really creepy.

01:31:28.580 And it's really kind of a cool inside look at that.

01:31:32.020 And then we have the news and why it matters, which is a very fast growing podcast on iTunes.

01:31:38.880 And you watch the first half hour of it on the Blaze TV and the podcast gives you something for your whole drive home.

01:31:46.020 And it's the the news and why it matters.

01:31:48.800 You can find that now and subscribe to the podcast.

01:31:52.080 Had Eric Bowling on there last night.

01:31:54.620 Yeah.

01:31:55.100 From he's on CRTV now used to be on Fox Business and Fox News a lot.

01:31:59.720 Yeah, we get kind of a bunch of guests that pop in on that show and it's kind of as part of the roundtable.

01:32:05.320 Yeah, it's kind of the people who are just kind of here and you necessarily wouldn't know that they were here.

01:32:10.120 We're just kind of popping them in on that and and hearing their take.

01:32:13.800 Yesterday was really interesting because he's such a big fan of Donald Trump.

01:32:19.660 He's friends with him, right?

01:32:20.660 He had good friends, good friends with talks to him several times a week, I think.

01:32:24.000 Uh, and, uh, uh, I did a, I did a podcast with him after I did his show and he did the news and why matters.

01:32:31.440 And then I did an about an hour interview with him and I wanted to talk to him about the loss of his son.

01:32:37.220 And, uh, he's been through, you know, it's been all, I mean, it's been a crazy couple of years here.

01:32:42.440 Horrible.

01:32:42.980 Eric.

01:32:43.340 Yeah.

01:32:43.600 Horrible, horrible.

01:32:44.560 Uh, and it was last weekend that was the anniversary of his son's death.

01:32:49.040 So it was really raw.

01:33:51.860 Welcome to the program.

01:33:52.900 Mr.

01:33:53.100 Pat Cray.

01:33:53.620 How are you?

01:33:54.600 Oh, outraged.

01:33:56.260 Of course.

01:33:56.940 Outraged as always.

01:33:58.260 Oh my gosh.

01:33:59.160 Isn't everybody.

01:33:59.920 Yeah.

01:34:00.100 No, I mean, there's nothing.

01:34:01.260 There's addicted to outrage.

01:34:03.520 Nothing better.

01:34:04.860 Nothing better.

01:34:06.140 What are you outraced about today?

01:34:08.240 Uh, you know who DC McAllister is?

01:34:10.740 She's a writer for PJ media.

01:34:12.280 She's a contributor there.

01:34:13.380 She's a frequent guest on Fox news.

01:34:15.640 She had the unmitigated goal.

01:34:18.560 No, she did not.

01:34:19.480 She did.

01:34:20.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

01:34:20.760 She tweeted about abortion.

01:34:22.560 Intersectionality right now.

01:34:23.500 It's happening.

01:34:24.080 She's oppressing somebody. 1.00

01:34:25.340 Oh my gosh.

01:34:26.160 You talk about a misogynist woman. 1.00

01:34:29.060 Wait.

01:34:30.000 She's the definition of a misogynist woman. 1.00

01:34:33.160 Wow.

01:34:33.780 Sexist, misogynist.

01:34:35.660 Listen to what she said.

01:34:36.560 I want to take her vagina away. 1.00

01:34:38.400 I wish we could.

01:34:39.200 I wish we could.

01:34:40.580 Can we ask Linda Sarsour?

01:34:41.720 I know she likes to do that. 1.00

01:34:42.620 She likes to do that. 1.00

01:34:44.220 Now, that has nothing to do with female genital mutilation. 0.97

01:34:49.120 No.

01:34:49.640 Although that's why Linda Sarsour wants to take people's vaginas away. 1.00

01:34:55.060 They're only the people who have been mutilated and are speaking out against it.

01:34:59.980 Okay.

01:35:00.420 But anyway, go ahead.

01:35:01.180 We can probably get her on board.

01:35:02.500 We'll work on that afterwards.

01:35:03.700 Okay.

01:35:03.840 And you're going to want to.

01:35:04.700 Okay.

01:35:05.180 Because here's what she tweeted.

01:35:07.860 Yes.

01:35:08.120 At the root of abortion hysteria is women's unhinged desire for irresponsible sex. 1.00

01:35:14.620 Sex is their God. 0.99

01:35:16.300 Abortion is their sacrament. 0.78

01:35:18.340 It's abhorrent as women have flung themselves from the heights of being the world's civilizing force 1.00

01:35:23.180 to the muck and mire of dehumanizing depravity.

01:35:26.860 How dare she say that about the sacrament of abortion?

01:35:32.340 Can you believe it?

01:35:33.420 Okay.

01:35:33.560 Hang on.

01:35:33.880 Let's take that.

01:35:34.420 Let's take that line by line.

01:35:36.160 Okay.

01:35:36.660 Go ahead.

01:35:37.060 At the root of abortion hysteria is women's unhinged desire for irresponsible sex. 1.00

01:35:42.360 Stop.

01:35:44.260 Not entirely true, but true.

01:35:47.380 Yeah.

01:35:47.620 I mean, you could argue whether it's the root or not.

01:35:49.680 Yes.

01:35:49.780 But I mean, it's come along with the, I mean, the sexual revolution, sexual revolution.

01:35:55.520 Next sentence, sex is their God. 0.96

01:35:58.080 Maybe for some, maybe for some, maybe for some abortion is their sacrament. 0.96

01:36:02.300 I think that's a true statement.

01:36:04.740 It's basically the most important thing on the left to the left.

01:36:09.160 It is.

01:36:09.540 But not necessarily, not necessarily by those who, if you're just going to have promiscuous

01:36:16.520 sex and you don't care and your birth control is abortion. 1.00

01:36:19.340 I'm talking about the women who have abortion after abortion, after abortion, after abortion. 0.90

01:36:23.200 Okay.

01:36:24.720 I don't think they're thinking about that as a sacrament.

01:36:27.180 They don't really care.

01:36:28.540 I mean, I don't think they're even paying it.

01:36:30.200 They're just, it's just, that's the way of life.

01:36:32.640 It's sacred to, to the politics of the left.

01:36:35.100 Yes, it is.

01:36:36.260 That is, that is sacred zone.

01:36:40.280 So from that standpoint, it kind of is their sacrament.

01:36:42.720 Yes.

01:36:43.460 It's abhorrent as women have flung themselves from the heights of being the world's civilizing 1.00

01:36:47.440 force to the muck and mire of dehumanizing depravity.

01:36:50.780 Wow.

01:36:51.400 It's a powerful statement.

01:36:52.600 Except not entirely true.

01:36:54.760 Women were not, women have been depraved like men have been depraved. 1.00

01:37:01.020 You know, Rome, you know, they weren't, they're not, they're not, they're not born like, oh

01:37:07.200 my goodness, well, let's just make pies.

01:37:10.420 They're not born that way.

01:37:12.240 Society.

01:37:12.960 I think, I think you have a natural maternal instinct, but society also plays a big role.

01:37:19.140 That Judeo-Christian role in all of our lives changes us. 1.00

01:37:25.920 So women are just being encouraged and trained now to be just as depraved as, as some men 0.74

01:37:34.340 are.

01:37:35.600 But remember, nurses were also part of eugenics in Germany.

01:37:40.620 I mean, so, you know, they weren't necessarily fighting against it either.

01:37:44.520 Well, immediately the left went ape crap crazy.

01:37:48.620 Um, why are you, why are you, uh, appropriating the apes? 0.91

01:37:55.680 It's also racist, right?

01:37:57.040 You can't reference an ape in any context.

01:37:59.900 Well, no, not crazy.

01:38:01.480 So, right.

01:38:02.700 They called her crazy.

01:38:04.080 They, of course, uh, said she's misogynist. 1.00

01:38:06.900 They threatened, uh, death, rape.

01:38:11.580 Um, and she is now in hiding with her children because the threats were, she said it wasn't just

01:38:17.600 over Twitter.

01:38:18.400 It was all kinds of, uh, private platform communication.

01:38:22.180 Well, can I tell you something?

01:38:24.060 I think we need to talk about that one White House person that needs to have security because

01:38:29.620 of what Trump is saying.

01:38:31.560 Yeah.

01:38:32.060 Yeah.

01:38:32.500 Okay.

01:38:32.980 Yeah.

01:38:33.540 Except why does that person need security?

01:38:35.300 We don't know who it is.

01:38:36.360 Here's a woman who is actually in hiding. 1.00

01:38:40.340 Yeah.

01:38:41.640 Yeah.

01:38:41.920 Which one's feminism? 1.00

01:38:42.800 The one that threatens a woman's life or the one who protects? 0.92

01:38:47.520 I mean, you know, again, the argument, you can agree with it or not, but we can all agree

01:38:51.280 that if the policies she's recommending in the tweet came true, a lot more women would 1.00

01:38:55.600 be alive.

01:38:56.500 That, that part we can all a hundred percent agree on.

01:38:59.280 Uh, there would be more women alive. 1.00

01:39:00.220 Except for those who were born as cactus.

01:39:02.200 There's not, there's, that does not occur.

01:39:03.620 No, we're not sure that that's a baby in there.

01:39:05.260 It's not a scientific.

01:39:05.740 We're not sure that's a baby.

01:39:06.860 Not only would there be more women, there'd be more blacks. 1.00

01:39:09.160 There'd be more Hispanics. 0.94

01:39:10.260 There might be more Native Americans.

01:39:12.740 There might be, there might be, there might be new mink coats.

01:39:16.420 You don't know if that grows into a mink coat.

01:39:19.140 Spatula.

01:39:19.600 Who knows?

01:39:20.100 Spatula.

01:39:20.500 Yeah.

01:39:20.780 I've seen a lot of spatulas come out.

01:39:22.400 So there could be, I just want to be fair here.

01:39:24.380 There might be more boys.

01:39:26.280 There might be more girls, but there also might be more spatulas, cactus and coats. 1.00

01:39:30.500 I have a proposal in, in, in the, the vein of your, or your book, Addicted to Outrage.

01:39:36.660 Um, you know, occasionally, and you want to try to find some common ground.

01:39:40.760 What if we change the law from what it is now to that you could only abort white men?

01:39:47.320 So anyone that, so if a white, if you find out it's white and it's a boy, you can abort 1.00

01:39:53.080 that.

01:39:53.640 But everything else you have to actually let, you know, live and stuff.

01:39:57.400 In a crazy.

01:39:57.740 I bet that they might agree with that.

01:39:59.420 In a crazy.

01:40:00.300 And in a crazy upside down world, I would actually go for it because it would cut, it

01:40:07.480 would cut the abortions in half or more, probably be like 70%.

01:40:11.360 If you're only having, I mean, you know, obviously other, a black boy being born or a, an Asian 0.97

01:40:17.940 boy being born, all those would have to be born, but white men, you can abort them. 1.00

01:40:22.620 There you go.

01:40:23.580 They will give you, we'll give you a white men. 0.99

01:40:25.360 That's how much we don't care.

01:40:26.780 That's how much this is not about women's rights. 1.00

01:40:29.320 And it's not about, uh, it's not about anything other than keeping people alive, letting people

01:40:34.780 have the opportunity to form a life.

01:40:37.400 Just that would be a huge win.

01:40:38.840 Why wouldn't you take it?

01:40:39.900 Sadly, it would.

01:40:40.280 Because it's less abortion. 0.93

01:40:41.100 I mean, it's insane, but it would.

01:40:42.580 Yeah.

01:40:42.720 Yeah.

01:40:43.080 It's crazy.

01:40:43.840 Now, if you're in the kitchen, you might have a shortage of spatulas.

01:40:48.220 Yeah, you might.

01:40:48.780 Because the spatulas would be born.

01:40:50.980 Oh, you're right.

01:40:51.680 You're right.

01:40:51.940 You're right.

01:40:52.160 Just not white men. 0.90

01:40:52.660 You're right.

01:40:52.980 And mink coats.

01:40:53.920 Yeah.

01:40:54.300 So that might be a, that might be good.

01:40:56.040 Actually, straight white men.

01:40:57.800 We have to make sure straight, straight white men. 0.99

01:41:00.660 Right.

01:41:01.140 Would.

01:41:01.500 And, and, and how do we test for straight?

01:41:03.620 I don't know.

01:41:04.060 We've got to figure that out.

01:41:04.920 That's a top priority.

01:41:05.560 And may I ask you, how do we do this if gender is fluid? 0.97

01:41:09.920 Oh.

01:41:10.560 Hmm.

01:41:11.420 And, and how do we tell if it's a, how do we tell if it's even human if we can't, if

01:41:18.140 we don't know if it's human in there?

01:41:19.780 Yeah, we don't know that.

01:41:20.580 We don't even know that.

01:41:21.380 We don't know that.

01:41:21.920 We don't even know.

01:41:22.320 We know it now.

01:41:23.420 Like Debbie Wasserman Schultz said, her, her kids are human now.

01:41:27.140 Right.

01:41:27.500 Well, were they human in the womb?

01:41:28.960 They're human now.

01:41:30.060 Right.

01:41:30.440 They're human now.

01:41:31.440 They're human now.

01:41:31.740 She wouldn't even admit her own children were human.

01:41:34.980 I mean, to, to, to that, to that level.

01:41:36.720 Is there a possibility that there are lizards growing inside of women? 1.00

01:41:40.200 Well, if you listen to Alex Jones, the answer to that is yes.

01:41:42.440 You point out the, how sacred it is to the point that Debbie Wasserman Schultz won't

01:41:48.560 even admit her own children are children.

01:41:50.300 Uh-huh.

01:41:51.260 Did you see this thing that's happened with Kamala Harris?

01:41:53.440 And now today, Hillary Clinton coming out and doubling down on it with Brett Kavanaugh. 0.79

01:41:58.180 Now, the idea is that Brett Kavanaugh is saying that birth control is abortion inducing drugs.

01:42:05.720 So they're going back to the Cory Booker banned birth control playbook here saying that actually

01:42:10.920 what Republicans think is they're all going to try to ban birth control as soon as you're

01:42:14.000 not looking and Brett Kavanaugh is going to be on this bandwagon.

01:42:17.060 So what he said was, uh, filling out the form would make them complicit in the provision

01:42:22.120 of abortion inducing drugs that were as a religious matter objecting to.

01:42:27.500 So he is on the record here saying that birth control is an abortion inducing drug, which

01:42:34.400 opens up the door for them to try to ban it.

01:42:36.200 The only minor problem, and this only happened after Kamala Harris tweeted the audio, is she

01:42:43.560 left off two words.

01:42:46.160 The words?

01:42:47.200 Is not.

01:42:47.880 They said.

01:42:49.440 Oh.

01:42:50.180 He's talking about someone's argument in court.

01:42:52.980 They said filling out the form would make them complicit in the provision of abortion

01:42:56.640 inducing drugs that they were as a religious matter objecting to.

01:43:00.940 So she cut it off after they said and attributed it to, uh, Brett Kavanaugh.

01:43:07.880 Unbelievable.

01:43:08.620 And now Hillary Clinton is coming in double down on it. 1.00

01:43:11.180 So even after PolitiFact said completely false for Pinocchios from Washington Post, the whole

01:43:17.080 thing.

01:43:17.980 Doesn't that seem as the Republic is burning down, doesn't it?

01:43:22.280 Well, it did receive four Pinocchios.

01:43:24.780 Doesn't that seem a little, yeah, we need a little more gravitas to this.

01:43:30.940 Thank you very much, uh, Pat, Pat Gray and the Pat Gray Radio Roundup.

01:43:35.780 And extravaganza.

01:43:37.060 Yeah.

01:43:37.540 The Smoking Cowboys are on.

01:43:39.420 Singing Cowboys Tuesday, Wednesday Smoking Cowboys.

01:43:43.120 Pat sets them on fire.

01:43:44.600 It's, but they're all white men, so. 0.90

01:43:46.200 It's okay.

01:43:46.640 It's all right.

01:43:48.080 Now, most Americans, if you're like everybody else, and you're not, I mean, why aren't you?

01:43:55.340 I mean, what's wrong with you?

01:43:56.120 If you're like most Americans, your home is going to be the biggest investment that you

01:44:01.200 will ever make.

01:44:02.640 Real Estate Agents, I Trust.com was built because we know that.

01:44:07.080 We also know the stress that it takes to sell a house or to buy a new house, moving into an

01:44:12.560 area that you don't know.

01:44:15.080 I mean, you need a real estate agent that knows the area.

01:44:18.380 You need a real estate agent that's like, no, you don't.

01:44:20.400 I mean, you cross this street and it gets a little dicey.

01:44:23.440 People like Stu live there, and that's why the home price is just such a difference, you

01:44:28.680 know, on the other side of the street.

01:44:30.720 You need somebody who knows the area, who really knows what the houses are worth, where

01:44:36.980 you should move, you know, and find, spend some time finding out about your family.

01:44:42.620 Also, if you're trying to sell your house, you need somebody who has some urgency, and

01:44:47.180 it's not somebody who's like, I was busy at Home Depot all day.

01:44:49.840 This is my part-time job, and, you know, I'm just doing this part-time.

01:44:53.400 No, I need somebody who actually can talk to me about a marketing plan, because that is

01:44:59.080 the key in selling your home.

01:45:01.100 Who's got the marketing plan?

01:45:02.920 How are they going to market it?

01:45:04.140 How are they going to make sure tons of people see it?

01:45:18.020 Real Estate Agents, I Trust.com.

01:45:25.000 Can I ask you a question?

01:45:25.940 Do you think Donald Trump really suggested that we print money to eliminate the deficit

01:45:32.100 or the debt?

01:45:32.600 I don't know.

01:45:33.220 It's in the Woodward book.

01:45:34.320 Yeah.

01:45:34.760 Who knows if he threw it out there?

01:45:36.180 Even in the Woodward book, it's very much, he just kind of was throwing out ideas.

01:45:40.480 And, you know, they claim he brought that up as a answer.

01:45:45.600 I will tell you, it took me months to understand the money supply.

01:45:48.900 M1, M2, N3 money supply.

01:45:51.040 I mean, it's not something that the average person, you know, understands.

01:45:55.140 I love that.

01:45:56.160 You know, the left constantly advocates for policies that would include just running the

01:46:02.500 printing process.

01:46:03.020 And then when Donald Trump apparently reportedly said it in a meeting at one point in his presidency,

01:46:08.180 it's like, oh my gosh, this guy doesn't know what he's talking about.

01:46:10.840 Like, well, you guys have been advocating this policy for decades.

01:46:14.000 And we don't have time now, but I want to hit something else in the press and finances.

01:46:18.220 There is an amazing story from the Financial Times.

01:46:21.320 Something that I said was happening.

01:46:24.920 Something that I've told you before.

01:46:27.300 I don't have evidence of it, but I know they knew, the press knew, and they kept this from

01:46:35.620 you.

01:46:37.220 Financial story, Financial Times, in a crisis, sometimes you don't tell the whole story.

01:46:42.260 It's a guy who's a writer, and it's like, I just have to get this off my chest.

01:46:46.660 And it is an incredible story of deceit and what they kept from you.

01:46:52.940 So that'll be on tomorrow's program you don't want to miss.

01:46:55.140 Yeah.

01:46:55.660 Also, I noticed you didn't want to cover the Las Vegas professor who really taught Donald

01:47:01.240 Trump a lesson.

01:47:02.480 Really?

01:47:03.380 Oh, he did.

01:47:03.960 Oh, he did.

01:47:04.560 Did he get him?

01:47:05.240 He got him good this time.

01:47:05.960 Okay.

01:47:06.480 I'm looking for the bird, man.

01:47:08.060 Oh, this is really going to get you.

01:47:10.060 You're not giving me four Pinocchios, are you?

01:47:11.980 Oh, no.

01:47:12.380 This is 100% true.

01:47:13.700 All right.

01:47:14.260 It is.

01:47:15.360 He apparently decided to protest Donald Trump and take a tough stand.

01:47:20.240 I love it so far.

01:47:21.220 Yeah.

01:47:21.420 Because then he's sending Donald a lesson, and Donald's going to be like, oh, man, what

01:47:25.780 do I do now?

01:47:26.360 Right.

01:47:26.720 He's like, I'm president.

01:47:27.900 This is original.

01:47:28.840 Nobody else is thinking this way.

01:47:30.360 Oh, yeah.

01:47:30.760 Yeah.

01:47:30.980 I'm going to be out protesting.

01:47:32.260 Now, anybody can hold up a sign.

01:47:34.000 Sure.

01:47:34.280 Anybody can say something on Twitter, right?

01:47:37.320 What's the next logical step?

01:47:39.600 If you've gone to all the rallies, you've gone to all the resistance events, you've-

01:47:43.200 Blow yourself up?

01:47:44.080 You've sent-

01:47:44.520 Well, that's a good idea.

01:47:47.020 Right.

01:47:47.220 He decided instead to shoot himself in the bathroom in his arm.

01:47:56.060 Yeah.

01:47:56.720 In his arm.

01:47:57.380 He shot himself in the arm.

01:47:58.920 He was not dead.

01:47:59.360 I think shooting himself in the foot would be more apropos.

01:48:02.320 Right.

01:48:02.680 But no, he shot himself in the arm.

01:48:05.580 Well, now he can't carry a sign, or it'd be very painful.

01:48:08.140 Right.

01:48:09.260 That's true.

01:48:10.240 He had shot himself.

01:48:11.060 Maybe he was so sick of the resistance events and holding signs, he just was like, I'm just

01:48:15.640 going to shoot myself in the arm to get out of this.

01:48:17.120 I don't.

01:48:17.340 I can't go.

01:48:18.060 I hurt my arm.

01:48:19.420 He had shot himself.

01:48:20.320 He said he had shot himself in protest of Donald Trump.

01:48:23.100 The report did not elaborate.

01:48:24.920 He taped a $100 bill to the mirror along with a note that said, for the janitor.

01:48:29.820 I don't know if he was actually thinking he's going to kill himself and messed up.

01:48:35.400 No, I think he was leaving.

01:48:36.860 If he did it in a public space, he was leaving blood splattered everywhere.

01:48:41.100 Right.

01:48:41.260 So here's $100 to clean up all the blood.

01:48:43.480 And I'm sure the janitor was like, hey, man, I clean up the blood for free.

01:48:46.840 Yeah.

01:48:47.100 That's not for free.

01:48:48.620 He's actually paid to clean up the blood.

01:48:49.980 I mean, probably it's a really ugly job.

01:48:53.460 But I will say a lot of people are focusing on the idiocy of shooting yourself to protest

01:48:58.800 the president.

01:48:59.400 And that's a very good angle to go on.

01:49:00.920 But may I present another one that I think might be more delicious.

01:49:03.900 Okay.

01:49:04.340 All right.

01:49:04.860 This happened on the campus of the College of Southern Nevada.

01:49:09.520 He was in the bathroom.

01:49:11.340 With a gun.

01:49:12.040 With a gun.

01:49:12.980 With a gun in the bathroom, he shot himself.

01:49:15.180 The part that gets me on this is, in days, this will be included in your database of

01:49:22.120 school shootings.

01:49:23.580 Unbelievable.

01:49:24.100 They will find, when they say, there's been 9 billion school shootings this year included

01:49:30.300 in that number will be from Mother Jones and all these, every town for America or whatever

01:49:36.980 the heck it is.

01:49:37.840 All the people against gun violence that come up with these lists and they find thousands

01:49:41.400 of school shootings.

01:49:41.940 That's why he did it.

01:49:42.440 I'll bet you that's why he did it.

01:49:43.380 I wouldn't be surprised, but that will now show up on the school shooting chart.

01:49:48.720 A liberal professor shooting himself in the arm to protest the president will be used

01:49:53.760 by the left to advance anti-gun laws.

01:49:56.420 I just want you to remember, though, when you hear those stats, you can go, no, that's not

01:50:00.740 true.

01:50:01.420 That was Professor Peabrain in the bathroom with the gun.

01:50:07.800 Is that...

01:50:08.800 What?

01:50:09.240 Is it a clue?

01:50:10.040 Is that what we're playing now?

01:50:11.240 Isn't that what...

01:50:12.160 We're not playing the game?

01:50:13.020 No, it's not a game of glue.

01:50:14.360 This is a real story.

01:50:15.120 Real story.

01:50:15.780 Yeah.

01:50:16.180 Somebody that stupid.

01:50:17.360 Yes, that stupid.

01:50:18.280 And that's exactly why he did it.

01:50:20.380 I'm sure that's why he did it.

01:50:21.560 Yeah.

01:50:21.820 It's interesting.

01:50:22.780 On tomorrow's program, some amazing insight on, you know, people you trust.

01:50:30.960 People you trust.

01:50:32.440 We'll see you tomorrow on the radio.
