The Glenn Beck Program - So Much for the Shutdowns ｜ Guests： Matt Walsh & Joe Green

00:00:00.000 Hey, thank you so much. It is Friday. Come here, Uno. Come here, come here. Yes. Hello. Who's a vicious killer? Yes.

00:00:07.180 This is my vicious killer, Uno, who follows me around all the time, and I love him. He's a member of the family, and we want the best for him.

00:00:16.100 And that's why we're proud to have us a sponsor, Rough Greens. At roughgreens.com slash Beck, you can find this supplement, and I put it on my dog's food.

00:00:25.920 Pat, you use Rough Greens, don't you? Sure do. And my dog loves it. She loves it. Right? It's like dog crack.

00:00:34.860 It really is. I don't know what they put in it, but it is like dog crack. Yep. It used to take her all day to eat her food.

00:00:40.000 She gobbles it down in like one minute now. Right. And here's the thing. He never, we couldn't get him past 95 pounds.

00:00:47.060 He should be about 110. He's now at 110. We've never been able to get him at the right weight.

00:00:54.600 With Rough Greens, we have no problem, and it's not fat that he's added. It's muscle tone.

00:00:59.800 He's more active. Try it with your dog for 14 days. See if it makes a difference. You're going to see a difference.

00:01:06.060 Roughgreens.com slash Beck supplement that has all the probiotics and everything they need in their food that they can't get anywhere else.

00:01:12.480 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment.

00:01:42.480 Content and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:49.360 Oh my gosh, and it is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. It's Friday from the Standing Rock Ranch.

00:01:56.960 We are so glad that you have tuned in today.

00:02:01.040 Yesterday, I was a little upset. I still have a very twitchy eye and shaky trigger figure.

00:02:11.380 I may go off. I've got a rant that I'm trying not to express, but I don't think I'm going to make it today because I just saw something new in the news that, you know, Pat, what was that law called?

00:02:32.260 That they had in 1807 that George Bush used during Katrina.

00:02:37.640 Donald Trump has been saying that he'd use it against the rioters.

00:02:43.100 It was the insurrection law.

00:02:48.720 Right. That's what it was.

00:02:49.940 Yeah. Maxine Waters now says it's insulting to call these riots.

00:02:54.920 They're not riots.

00:02:56.060 They're an insurrection.

00:02:59.820 Oh, OK.

00:03:03.860 All right.

00:03:06.880 Deep breaths as we begin in 60 seconds.

00:03:11.100 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:17.560 OK, let me tell you about American financing, American financing.

00:03:20.920 One of those painful but necessary things.

00:03:23.180 If you own a house, you have to make mortgage payments, which means you have interest.

00:03:28.120 Now, here's one of the painful things that we can we can put some salve on some aloe, some aloe.

00:03:34.800 And that is this interest rates are at historic lows.

00:03:38.520 Right now, you can save a buttload of money.

00:03:41.660 I mean, a ton of money.

00:03:43.240 If your interest rate that you're paying for your mortgage is over four percent and American financing can help.

00:03:49.980 Now, you can save hundreds of dollars, some in some cases over a thousand dollars.

00:03:54.080 And if you consolidate loans, if you have credit cards, first thing, unless it's an American Express and you and you have to pay it off every month.

00:04:04.400 I so highly recommend my parents.

00:04:07.440 I remember, gosh, it must have been in the 1970 or something, because I barely remember this.

00:04:13.240 But I remember standing in front of the fireplace and my parents cutting up their credit cards and saying, this got us into trouble.

00:04:20.680 Credit cards are really dangerous.

00:04:23.620 And so my whole life, we were only allowed to carry American Express.

00:04:26.580 You know, my family was.

00:04:27.680 And that's really the only credit card I carry is American Express because it forces me to pay it off.

00:04:33.960 Now, that may not be your situation.

00:04:35.360 And, you know, everybody's situation is different.

00:04:37.760 But if you're in debt with credit cards and you're probably paying anywhere from 15 to 21 percent, consolidate that.

00:04:47.020 So you are not having that huge burden on you and you can pay that debt down.

00:04:52.260 Get out of that kind of debt.

00:04:54.720 And American Financing can help you with a 10-minute phone call at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, AmericanFinancing.net.

00:05:09.260 Oh, yeah, it's Friday in God's country, the United States of America.

00:05:24.740 Oh, my gosh.

00:05:25.780 Did he just say this was God's country?

00:05:28.200 Yep.

00:05:28.960 Yep, I did.

00:05:30.440 Now, we're not necessarily God's people anymore, but we we are in God's country.

00:05:36.020 And he'll make sure that a righteous people take control of this land.

00:05:42.100 And it may not be us.

00:05:43.820 Hurry.

00:05:44.440 Time's a wasting.

00:05:46.360 I have some information that I want to pass on to you, maybe today, but definitely on on Monday.

00:05:53.620 But we are having a powerful, powerful wake up call.

00:05:59.300 And there's two ways to go.

00:06:00.920 So we can do something positive about it and something with real meaning that will have real effect.

00:06:09.100 Or we can just get angry.

00:06:11.020 And all of my email from all of my friends was saying the same thing yesterday.

00:06:16.400 Glenn, man.

00:06:18.380 Oh, thank you for that monologue.

00:06:20.240 You were so angry.

00:06:21.300 And I'm so angry.

00:06:22.740 And they just vomited poison out, just like I did yesterday and probably will again later on in the program.

00:06:32.840 It's the anger has to be expressed because there are some things that just don't make any sense anymore.

00:06:41.540 Don't make any sense.

00:06:44.380 And some people are really hurting this covid thing.

00:06:51.220 Wait a minute.

00:06:51.980 You told us that we couldn't go out, that nothing you.

00:06:56.180 I have a friend who is ready for a kidney transplant.

00:07:01.100 And just before covid, they found out that in one of his kidneys was a tumor.

00:07:06.840 And so they had to take that out.

00:07:09.900 And it was a cancerous tumor.

00:07:11.280 They had to take that out.

00:07:13.280 And if it spread out of his kidneys, he would he would die because he wouldn't be able to take any kind of chemotherapy with bad kidneys.

00:07:23.740 He was told because of covid that that was an elective operation.

00:07:30.040 That was a plastic surgery is elective.

00:07:33.660 So he just had his surgery just a few days ago and just found out that it didn't spread.

00:07:41.020 Thank God.

00:07:41.940 But now he's got to wait for his kidneys.

00:07:43.880 This should have been done two months ago.

00:07:47.460 He could have died.

00:07:49.200 He spent all of this time, the whole time of covid thinking, I'm going to die.

00:07:56.220 It's going to spread past my kidneys and I'm not going to be able to get kidneys.

00:07:59.220 I'm dead.

00:07:59.720 How many people went through this?

00:08:02.940 How many people as we're watching George Floyd's funeral today?

00:08:07.800 As we're watching this and Nancy Pelosi is sitting in the in the third row or second row and she's not wearing a mask.

00:08:18.700 I asked myself, do any of these people actually believe anything?

00:08:22.420 How many people couldn't have funerals for their loved ones?

00:08:25.500 Couldn't be with their loved ones when they died.

00:08:28.080 But we're doing it now.

00:08:29.520 Why did you know that scientists and medical officials have come out this week and said, yes, covid is a disease and we've been battling covid.

00:08:42.280 But the battle against racism has been going on for far too long and it's a bigger battle.

00:08:49.160 And so if you have to not social distance, are you kidding me?

00:08:53.480 You destroyed our economy.

00:08:56.040 Twenty percent unemployment.

00:08:58.560 We had the lowest to twenty percent.

00:09:02.200 Boy, this is all starting to feel like it was a setup, doesn't it?

00:09:05.920 Leon Wolf is the is the editor of the blaze, the blaze dot com.

00:09:17.280 And Leon posted a Twitter thread that I just want to read to you because I think there's a ton of people that feel this way.

00:09:24.360 I woke up today really angry and I have some things I got to get off my chest.

00:09:29.580 I've been withdrawing from Twitter lately because of the toxicity of this place.

00:09:33.200 It's not good for me or probably the country, but it's time to say some things regardless of how people react.

00:09:39.180 At the start, let me note that I've been writing online about police brutality, lack of police accountability and racial injustice for over 15 years to a mostly unreceptive and sometimes hostile audience.

00:09:51.960 So I didn't wake up last week to discover these things existed.

00:09:56.020 So while I condemn the looting, violence and arson happening right now, I'm fully on board with the message of the people who are peacefully protesting.

00:10:04.380 And I have been for a long time, just so we're on the same page.

00:10:07.940 That having been said, I'm really pissed off at apparently the life and death need to destroy this country was apparently not so life and death.

00:10:18.720 The people who told us and scolded us, including public health experts who told us there was literally no reason that would justify ignoring them or violating social distancing rules,

00:10:31.660 suddenly find that literally no reason means unless it's a reason that's societally important.

00:10:39.720 They're not saying this figuratively, but literally dozens.

00:10:42.660 Dozens, this is according to NPR, dozens of public health officials and disease experts have now signed an open letter in support of the nationwide anti-racism protests.

00:10:54.820 White supremacy is a lethal public health issue that predates and contributes to COVID-19.

00:11:02.400 And contributes to COVID-19.

00:11:06.320 So having established that, I think the fight for the police reform is really important.

00:11:14.140 But I have to ask, was it not important to prevent tens of thousands of predicted deaths of suicide due to the psychological effects of the lockdown and ensuing depression?

00:11:25.880 Was it not important that people, especially small business owners and employees, are able to feed their families?

00:11:32.260 Is it not important that, you know, black people have jobs, black and poor black unemployment was at or black employment was at historic highs in March.

00:11:44.960 Now, less than half of black people are employed.

00:11:48.940 I'll tell you one reason I'm especially raw today.

00:11:51.980 One of my closest, dearest friends died last week.

00:11:54.960 I'm going to his funeral today.

00:11:57.020 Thank God it's being held in Arkansas.

00:11:59.060 Otherwise, it couldn't even exist.

00:12:01.080 Well, unless you're George Floyd, he'll be listed on the statistics as a COVID death because he caught COVID literally while locked down in a high risk area of the hospital.

00:12:12.540 But what killed him were complications for underlying health conditions that had him hospitalized since late March.

00:12:19.540 For the last eight weeks of his life, he lived totally alone.

00:12:23.380 Even after he had already caught COVID, he was not allowed in-person human contact from his friends or family.

00:12:30.280 Even if we signed a waiver and promised not to leave the hospital until we ourselves cleared quarantine.

00:12:37.400 I'm really mad that my friend had to die feeling not only that his body give up on him, but probably also the worst loneliness and isolation he had ever known in his entire life.

00:12:48.420 And I'm mad for all the families of the people who were not allowed to say goodbye to loved ones or even mourn or say goodbye at burials because it seems to me that this crap is pretty darn important to maintaining who we are as human beings.

00:13:03.560 How many people sat there and suffered the same indignity silently because they were told there was no choice?

00:13:10.380 I'll tell you what conclusion I draw from the last, the lack of, how do you pronounce this, the condemnation of these current protesters.

00:13:23.040 Yes, even the peaceful ones that they're going to kill grandma with their activities.

00:13:27.680 Why isn't anyone saying that?

00:13:29.120 It's the only conclusion that can be drawn, the conclusion that they didn't really believe what they were saying all along because an infectious disease does not care about the reason you're gathering or how important it is.

00:13:43.300 It has no social conscience or conscience of any kind, which leads me to believe that they were doing it because of politics or desire to control or whatever.

00:13:54.380 I don't really know, but most definitely not because they actually believed we would all die so much loss, so much damage, so much grief for apparently for nothing.

00:14:08.620 God, I hope people are held accountable for this somehow.

00:14:13.300 I have to tell you, it doesn't matter anymore if any of this was real, because I don't think you can contain the conspiracy theories that will go on now forever.

00:14:30.940 And those conspiracy theories may be right.

00:14:33.400 I think there's a growing body of evidence.

00:14:36.900 I mean, let me let me let me give you this story about Maxine Waters here.

00:14:46.580 This Maxine Waters story where she's saying a protest is an insurrection.

00:14:51.560 A protest is an insurrection.

00:14:54.780 You know, that's an amazing thing to say.

00:14:57.280 She says rational political expressions of dissatisfaction and rebellion.

00:15:02.560 It's extremely clear.

00:15:05.740 There are people that would like me to say, go inside, be peaceful, that they have to accept the verdict of she was talking about the Rodney King trial.

00:15:15.140 It's the language of rioting that I refuse to give it, give up on referring to the protest of 92 as an insurrection.

00:15:24.140 And she taught me she calls the new ones a an insurrection as well.

00:15:30.600 She said, you know, I had a long talk with my grandson, who's very politically aware and pays attention, even though he's in the entertainment industry.

00:15:39.340 And what's different about this moment from that moment?

00:15:44.400 He said, look, grandma, would you agree that people have been cooped up because of social distancing?

00:15:50.880 Isolation have been being quarantined for a couple of months, plus 40 million people unemployed.

00:15:57.200 You have seniors graduating from high school that don't know what they're going to do, whether there's going to be college next year, whether there's even going to be a job.

00:16:04.860 Most know there's not going to be a job.

00:16:07.780 You've got poor people who don't know where their next meal is coming from and looking to the government and wondering whether or not they're going to get more money in a stimulus plan.

00:16:16.660 That's what's happening here.

00:16:18.380 Now, wait a minute.

00:16:19.360 Hang on just a second.

00:16:20.280 So you're now saying, Maxine Waters, that it's OK for these rioters to go out and riot in the streets.

00:16:30.340 It wasn't when people had a chance a couple of weeks into it to be able to open up their businesses again.

00:16:37.600 And when they said, hey, I'm not getting any help from the government, you said you cannot let those people out.

00:16:44.200 Those people are dangerous.

00:16:47.800 But now that a group of, well, to use your words, insurrectionists.

00:16:57.680 Now that they're out on the street, you support them and you say, wouldn't you agree?

00:17:03.500 People have been cooped up because of social distancing, isolation and been quarantined for a couple of months.

00:17:07.940 Well, that's what you did, Maxine Waters.

00:17:10.960 That's what you did.

00:17:13.360 You did.

00:17:14.420 You and the press.

00:17:16.620 The president has been saying the whole time, leave it up to the states, leave it up to the states, leave it up to the states.

00:17:23.960 You said that was irresponsible.

00:17:28.040 40 million people unemployed.

00:17:30.160 Again, that's you.

00:17:32.280 Seniors graduating from high school that don't know what they're going to do.

00:17:35.260 We've been telling you there's no reason for schools to be closed.

00:17:38.760 But you keep saying there is a reason.

00:17:41.740 In fact, our schools, our colleges are supposed to be closed in the fall.

00:17:47.080 For what?

00:17:48.200 For what?

00:17:51.440 I want to take a break.

00:17:55.240 Because I have to tell you, I don't.

00:17:59.120 I'm sorry, I don't believe that anybody in the media believes anything about COVID.

00:18:03.000 I don't.

00:18:03.480 I don't believe that this destruction of our economy is a coincidence.

00:18:11.500 I just don't.

00:18:12.940 I don't believe these riots being covered the way they are now with the media and CNN even saying that, you know, sometimes protests need to be violent.

00:18:23.300 Excuse me.

00:18:25.100 I don't think this is a coincidence.

00:18:27.140 I think there is a group of people that want this to happen.

00:18:34.100 They have.

00:18:35.140 They have either taken taken advantage of conditions or they have set up those conditions.

00:18:43.940 I don't know which at this point.

00:18:46.400 And there is no one to tell us the truth.

00:18:50.000 There's no one I trust to tell the truth.

00:18:52.140 So what does this mean?

00:18:55.960 Well, an insurrection, an insurrection, not a riot, an insurrection, according to Maxine Waters.

00:19:04.480 So what does that mean?

00:19:06.000 Because I looked it up and I wanted to make sure I had it right and compare it to different words.

00:19:11.200 I'll go there in one minute.

00:19:12.400 All right, MyPillow.

00:19:18.620 If you are tossing and turning every night, you need MyPillow.

00:19:23.680 A pillow will make all the difference in the world on how you sleep, how long you sleep, how deep you sleep, how you feel when you get up in the morning.

00:19:32.260 And it's not just MyPillow that is great.

00:19:34.620 They have all kinds of products for your bed that will really change the way you sleep and make it a pleasant thing.

00:19:43.100 Just a few years ago, I just could not sleep.

00:19:45.640 And I hated going to bed as it was just awful.

00:19:49.940 And I'd get up in the morning and I wouldn't be rested.

00:19:52.600 And I'm like, oh, geez.

00:19:54.500 And I think I've conquered.

00:19:55.820 I've cracked the code.

00:19:56.800 And MyPillow and some of their products have really helped.

00:20:00.420 They've played a big role in cracking that code for sleep, at least for me.

00:20:04.620 Give it a shot.

00:20:28.220 Station ID.

00:20:34.620 You know, I looked up insurrection in the dictionary.

00:20:46.420 Now that Maxine Waters is saying that we should not call this a riot, this is an insurrection.

00:20:55.900 Hmm.

00:20:56.900 Well, that's the Insurrection Act of 1807 that you said was so bad to employ.

00:21:03.560 How am I misunderstanding the word insurrection?

00:21:06.700 So I looked it up.

00:21:07.960 It's a noun.

00:21:09.000 Insurrection.

00:21:10.520 Violent uprising against an authority or government.

00:21:16.440 Hmm.

00:21:17.940 Against an authority could be cops.

00:21:19.920 Because I know a lot of people say we just have to disband the cops.

00:21:23.360 That's a good idea.

00:21:24.540 That's been done.

00:21:25.680 So many societies and civilizations have had no prisons and no cops.

00:21:32.340 I don't know why we invented this here in America.

00:21:36.660 Okay.

00:21:37.180 So a violent uprising against an authority or a government.

00:21:42.120 Similar words.

00:21:44.060 Rebellion.

00:21:45.000 Hmm.

00:21:45.240 Let's see.

00:21:45.720 Get the, ah, get the rebels of the South.

00:21:48.620 That's right.

00:21:49.260 That was the Civil War.

00:21:50.700 Rebellion.

00:21:51.980 Revolt.

00:21:53.180 Uprising.

00:21:54.240 Mutiny.

00:21:55.200 Revolution.

00:21:55.940 Stop me when you think I get to a good word.

00:21:58.820 Uh, insurgency.

00:22:01.220 Insurgence.

00:22:02.160 Sedition.

00:22:02.900 There's a good.

00:22:03.440 Ooh.

00:22:04.060 Anarchy.

00:22:05.300 A coup.

00:22:06.320 A coup d'etat.

00:22:07.520 Or my personal favorite as a synonym for insurrection.

00:22:12.040 A putsch.

00:22:13.960 Which is what Hitler went to jail for.

00:22:18.620 Uh, the difference between rebellion and insurrection.

00:22:22.940 A rebellion is unaccountable armed resistance to an established government or ruler.

00:22:28.220 While insurrection is organized.

00:22:32.780 Uh, organized opposition to an authority.

00:22:36.220 A mutiny.

00:22:37.360 A rebellion.

00:22:38.760 Oh.

00:22:39.380 Well, this is so good.

00:22:41.480 No, no, no.

00:22:42.760 It gets worse if you'd care to go there.

00:22:45.440 Just open up your dictionary, uh, today.

00:22:48.920 All right.

00:22:49.580 We're going to tell you how this has happened before and no one cared with Matt Walsh.

00:22:54.200 Next.

00:22:54.480 Uh, when Pete and Seth Talbot founded, uh, Relief Factor, they wanted just to help people in

00:23:02.840 pain.

00:23:03.420 These guys are really big.

00:23:04.920 They're just really big God guys and really good people.

00:23:08.120 And their whole life really is spent just trying to help people.

00:23:12.660 So they wanted to come up with a product that would help people.

00:23:15.460 And then it would also help fund things.

00:23:18.120 All the money really is going into things that, um, help people.

00:23:23.940 Uh, they're doing so much missionary work here and abroad.

00:23:27.560 I mean, it's really an amazing thing.

00:23:29.040 Anyway, people take drugs to manage pain and we're on way too many drugs.

00:23:35.000 Um, and the results are not very helpful and we're getting addicted to prescription drugs

00:23:40.460 because of, of pain.

00:23:43.700 I've had severe pain for the last, I don't know, 10, 10 years.

00:23:48.860 And, uh, it was debilitating until I started taking Relief Factor.

00:23:53.440 That's when I got my life back.

00:23:55.280 And you can too.

00:23:56.280 Just try it.

00:23:58.240 Relief Factor has helped me paint, has helped me build this barn in this studio.

00:24:02.720 I've, yes, believe it or not, I had a hammer in my hands for several days because of Relief

00:24:07.900 Factor, 800-500-8384.

00:24:20.740 This is the Glenn Beck Program from the Standing Rock Ranch in God's country.

00:24:26.820 Welcome to the program, Mr. Matt Walsh.

00:24:29.520 He's the author of The Church of Cowards.

00:24:32.200 Also the host of The Matt Walsh Show.

00:24:34.300 Uh, Matt, welcome.

00:24:37.260 Hey, Glenn.

00:24:37.860 Thanks for having me.

00:24:39.440 You bet.

00:24:40.040 You know, I want to, I know we were going to talk about Tony Timpa, and we will, because

00:24:45.060 it's really important what you've exposed here.

00:24:47.680 But I just want to ask you, as I think this is a very relevant question, and your book

00:24:52.760 handles this well.

00:24:53.600 What do you, what do you mean by The Church of Cowards?

00:24:58.180 Well, I mean, you know, when we look around at, uh, at, at the church in, in, in the country

00:25:03.800 today, I think it's, uh, I think, I think it's pretty, pretty clear to most Christians

00:25:07.560 that, you know, it's a church infected by not just cowardice, but, uh, I think complacency,

00:25:13.580 you know, people's spiritual complacency, where we're just sort of floating along on the

00:25:18.120 tide of, of the culture.

00:25:19.660 And I, of course, I wrote this book before the lockdowns and everything else happened,

00:25:23.720 but, uh, everything that we've seen in the last few months has only, unfortunately, I

00:25:27.460 think, sort of proven my point, especially as churches have been shut down, and so many

00:25:32.460 of us as Christians have just sort of gone along with that, um, as our, as our First Amendment

00:25:37.180 rights were totally obliterated, uh, on a, on a, on a basis that, by the way, has now been

00:25:42.400 exposed as a total shame, because, of course, they've thrown all that to the side for the

00:25:46.100 protest. So, unfortunately, I hate to say, you know, I like, like, I've been proven right

00:25:50.600 by this, but, uh, but I think I have been.

00:25:54.020 Uh, so, Matt, what do you draw from, uh, from this? We were just talking about it. I mean,

00:25:59.980 this is the Reichstag fire now, and just like the Reichstag fire, it may have been started,

00:26:06.020 uh, by communists, uh, it may have just been taken advantage of, or it could have been started

00:26:12.460 by the Nazis. You don't really know for sure, and I think what's coming our way is, is, is

00:26:19.920 a large part, part and parcel with, uh, the COVID-19 lockdowns. You would not have been

00:26:27.500 able to have this kind of unrest without 20% unemployment, and you could make the case,

00:26:34.240 I think pretty easily, that this was either planned, or it was just used, and then they

00:26:42.340 hatched a plan along the way. Uh, I mean, I don't think we'll ever really know. Do you have an

00:26:47.620 opinion on this? Yeah, I think it's a combination of factors. I think, obviously, it cannot be a

00:26:53.100 coincidence that we're seeing this kind of mass unrest, uh, three months into these lockdowns,

00:26:58.400 but I don't think that's a coincidence. We know Antifa's involvement, so there's a combination

00:27:02.620 of factors, but I also think we should keep in mind that we shouldn't forget that, uh, there have

00:27:07.780 been riots and mass looting and violence at BLM protests for years now. I mean, before Antifa

00:27:15.520 was, was as prominent as it is now. I mean, have we forgotten Ferguson, Baltimore? We've forgotten

00:27:20.340 Dallas, where five police officers were executed at a BLM protest. So there's a weird thing that I've

00:27:25.700 noticed among some conservative commentators, where it seems like they're trying to absolve BLM of any

00:27:30.980 guilt and put this all on, on Antifa and say, well, they're coming in and doing the rioting

00:27:35.060 and looting. I know that they're partially responsible, but why are we pretending that

00:27:39.340 Black Lives Matter has not also been a violent movement from its inception, from day one? I don't

00:27:44.800 know why we're pretending that. Well, I guess I do know why I'm not being, I'm being, you know,

00:27:48.160 intentionally naive, but, uh, we should not pretend that because it is a violent movement in my

00:27:52.380 opinion. I will, I will tell you, Matt, that was the same thought I had, uh, yesterday. I was

00:27:56.980 watching the stuff and I thought we are just, we're cleansing as a society. We're cleansing BLM

00:28:02.640 and we're saying, we're saying, well, they're not Antifa. Well, yeah, yeah, they are. Yeah,

00:28:07.760 they are. Their goals are much the same, uh, as, as Antifa and their actions are much the same.

00:28:14.660 Uh, one more thing on the Christian community, the, the black box, which I refuse to tweet or

00:28:20.600 anything else, this black box movement, it was tweeted out by so many people who were, um,

00:28:28.840 not just church members, but church leaders were, were, were going ahead with the black box movement

00:28:36.720 on this last Tuesday. If you go to the black box movement website, they, they provide education for

00:28:44.500 you. One of which is the 16, uh, 19 project, which is thoroughly discredited, a horrible, horrible look

00:28:54.260 at history makes our, our founders, our pilgrims into nothing, nothing but racists. Where, where,

00:29:03.440 where, where do we go from truth for truth? If our, if our own pastors and preachers can't find truth.

00:29:10.640 Yeah, I think there's obviously a lot of empty virtue signaling that goes on. I think also

00:29:14.140 people are, you know, of course, of course they're afraid of being called racist. I mean,

00:29:17.360 we, I I've heard from many conservatives, uh, you know, some prominent commentators and, and others

00:29:22.240 saying that, yeah, well, I condemn the violence and writing and of course everything, blah, blah,

00:29:26.380 blah. But, but, uh, the message of the protests, I agree with, I mean, I support the message. I

00:29:30.820 support them. Well, do you really? Because look at what, but go to black lives matter website and,

00:29:34.980 and look at what they're saying about America and what they stand for. You, you support that now as a

00:29:39.960 conservative, they're saying America, the white supremacist country, that cops are out hunting for

00:29:43.820 black people to kill. They're not, they don't defend or, or save black lives at all. They just

00:29:47.300 kill black people. Um, you know, we're, we're, we're a country infected by the virus of white

00:29:52.620 supremacy and white supremacists are killing black people every day. This is, this is the,

00:29:56.700 what black lives matter is saying. And you've got conservatives now saying, oh yeah, I support

00:30:00.300 that part of it. What do you mean you support that? I thought we're supposed to be standing

00:30:03.560 against this kind of nonsense. We better stand.

00:30:05.560 Well, no, wait a minute, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, let me, let me, let me make sure

00:30:09.260 that I understand you. And we're on the same page because I support the criminal prosecution

00:30:14.840 of the police officer who killed, uh, George Floyd. Um, George Floyd's not a hero. He's not

00:30:22.200 a monitor. He was a very bad guy. Uh, he should have been a criminal that went to jail, should

00:30:27.260 not have been somebody who was, was killed, uh, by a police officer. So I separate this with the

00:30:35.180 police officer. I want to see him go to jail and that part I support. Uh, and I want to

00:30:41.860 see that all of, uh, you know, all of our cops are as clean as possible, uh, that they can

00:30:47.280 be. I support that, but I don't support black lives matter. I don't support what they want.

00:30:52.720 And I don't support the so-called protesters because when I listened to the interviews for

00:30:58.340 them, they're saying either burn the entire thing down or I deserve this. So I'm going to

00:31:04.160 take it. Neither of those do I agree with. Yeah. Well, I, and, and I think you're exactly

00:31:09.320 right. I mean, yes, I also agree with, uh, that we need to prosecute the officer that

00:31:13.780 killed George Floyd. Everybody agrees with that. Everyone agreed from it from day one,

00:31:18.460 they arrested the officer. I mean, there's really not much else to be said about it. We,

00:31:23.300 we were all on the same page and that's how we know. It's a very rare time where we are

00:31:28.200 this, uh, where we're this lockstep in United in America. We had about one day where everyone

00:31:35.520 was United in America. Everybody said, Oh yeah, this is horrible. And then all of a sudden

00:31:40.940 we were made to believe like we would disagreed with each other.

00:31:45.200 Yeah. And usually that's the thing with a protest. Usually it's, you've got one side insisting

00:31:49.580 on something and there are people disagreeing, which is why you need to protest. But if the

00:31:53.220 protesters are saying prosecute, uh, the killer justice for George Floyd and everybody in

00:31:57.840 America is like, yeah, I agree. Totally. Let's do that. Well, if that's all you wanted to

00:32:02.000 accomplish, then you would put your sign down and go home. It's like if I, as a pro-life

00:32:05.880 protesters, I mean, we're out saying abolish abortion. If the whole country said, yep, let's

00:32:09.800 do it. Then we would say great. And we would put our signs on and go home and we would celebrate

00:32:13.440 and say we won. So that's how we know that it's not just about George Floyd because they're

00:32:17.600 still out there. Obviously they want more than just justice for George Floyd. Um, and, uh,

00:32:22.300 we can, you know, if you want to know what else they want, we'll, we just have to look

00:32:25.020 at what black lives matter is saying. So Matt, you have made a Tony Timpa a rather famous,

00:32:31.620 uh, this week, a name I had never heard of. I live in Dallas. I didn't even know this

00:32:36.240 story. Tell the story of Tony Timpa. Yeah. Tony, Tony Timpa was a white man, uh, who was

00:32:42.760 also killed by police. Uh, this happened a few years back in 2016, very similar situation.

00:32:48.860 The videos out there now, the body cam footage, very similar situation to George Floyd. He

00:32:53.220 was, um, he was being arrested. They were on top of him. He couldn't breathe. He said

00:32:57.180 many times, like, I can't breathe. I'm going to die. They didn't listen to him. He died

00:33:01.780 on the pavement. And, uh, after he died, the police officers were cracking jokes. Uh, you

00:33:06.680 know, now they might not have known that he was dead, but they thought they knew he was

00:33:09.940 unconscious and they thought it was very funny. They did. They did not give him, uh, they did

00:33:14.100 not administer, you know, anything medical wise. The other, the other part of this is

00:33:18.520 that Tony Timpa make it even more outrageous. Tony Timpa suffered from mental illness. He

00:33:24.460 called the police to come help him. He realized that he was on the verge of, you know, he just,

00:33:28.760 he needed, he hadn't been off his medication. He knew he needed help. He did what you're supposed

00:33:33.740 to do. And he called the police to come help him and they killed him instead. And, uh, I mean,

00:33:39.200 it's just totally horrifying. It's at least as bad as George Floyd, if not worse. And yet,

00:33:46.080 Oh, I think it's, I have to tell you, I think it's worse because he wasn't in a criminal act.

00:33:50.600 We have to separate the act from the killing. They are two separate things, but here's a totally

00:33:57.680 innocent guy who is calling and saying, help me. And they kill him. That's, that's more insane than

00:34:04.640 he thought he was. Exactly. And, and, and yet, and this is not about, look, this is not about

00:34:10.140 what about ism or anything like that. I'm not trying to score points that make this into a racial

00:34:15.500 scorecard thing. Uh, we're just pointing out that these sorts of things happen all the time to people

00:34:23.100 who are not black. Daniel Shaver is another case that I've, I've mentioned a little bit more well-known,

00:34:28.520 but that video is just the worst thing I've ever seen. If you haven't seen the video of Daniel

00:34:33.620 Shaver, if you want to see it, I warn you horrible, but he was killed, shot dead by police while

00:34:38.820 begging for his life on his knees. I mean, that's what they said happened to Michael Brown. It

00:34:42.940 didn't happen to Michael Brown. That was a lie. It actually did happen to Daniel Shaver on his

00:34:46.980 knees, begging for his life saying, don't kill me. And they shot him white man, you know, and,

00:34:50.940 and this kind of thing happens all the time. The important point is that the police brutality is a

00:34:55.800 real problem. In my opinion, there's a real problem with the way sometimes the police go about

00:34:59.540 things, even though it's a minority of cases, but it does happen. I don't think there's any

00:35:03.480 reason to believe at all, actually, that it's racially motivated. I don't think it has anything

00:35:07.900 to do with race. The vast majority of cases, I think it's, it's, you know, power trip. I think

00:35:12.900 it's sometimes police officers don't value human life as much as they should. And then also sometimes

00:35:17.280 this idea that, you know, there are some cops who don't want to take any chances at all with their

00:35:22.120 own lives, none at all. And so they'd rather kill you than take any chance whatsoever. Now,

00:35:26.840 fortunately, most cops don't operate that way. Some do. And I think that's what leads to Daniel

00:35:31.820 Shaver, Tony Timpo, George Floyd, and many of these other cases. If we're going to go further

00:35:36.480 than that and say that this person was killed because of their race, because this cop hated

00:35:40.680 him because he was black, you're going to need some evidence for that. And the evidence cannot be

00:35:45.520 that the person died because we know that happens to white people too. Happens to more white people.

00:35:50.240 You need more evidence. I mean, maybe the cop who killed George Floyd was racist. Is there any

00:35:53.940 evidence of that? Do we have anything else aside from the video of George Floyd dying? If we don't,

00:35:58.820 and you're going around saying he was racist, that is irresponsible, reckless, and you have,

00:36:03.540 you know, you have no reason to be saying it other than maybe you want it to be true for your

00:36:07.880 narrative. Hey, Matt, it's Pat Gray. Do you know if any of the police officers were ever charged in

00:36:15.200 this death? Did anybody, was anybody brought to justice over Tony Timpa? I don't believe, I know in

00:36:22.480 the case of Daniel Shaver, nobody was, there was, there was no conviction. Wow. And I believe that

00:36:28.780 was the case for Tony Timpa as well. This is amazing. He, I mean, they were joking. They

00:36:37.560 thought he was asleep. They tried to wake him. It's time for school. Wake up. I don't want to go to

00:36:42.620 school. Five more minutes, mom, said the other officer. They joke about buying him new shoes for

00:36:47.880 the first day of school, making him a special breakfast, laughing loudly. Uh, he is, uh, he's

00:36:54.480 dead. Um, uh, and, and there was nobody that even cared about this story. Nobody that even

00:37:03.000 cared. So I think this says, if I, if I'm not mistaken, Matt, you're, you're not playing what

00:37:09.200 about ism. You are saying that there is a problem with the police departments, but not all police

00:37:15.600 departments are not all police, but there is something to be said for, uh, the brutality

00:37:22.380 that sometimes happens, uh, with a, you know, with, with certain cops. Yeah, exactly. And

00:37:29.880 that's, and if we want to really, if we're serious about addressing a problem, then we have to first

00:37:35.500 diagnose it correctly. And if we're insisting on this racial narrative and we can't possibly

00:37:40.680 diagnose it correctly, because then if we're, if we're saying, well, this is all racial, then,

00:37:44.900 then we've got, then what the hell are we going to say about Tony temperate, Daniel Schaefer and

00:37:48.440 the others? Um, we, we have, how does that, that doesn't fit with the theory. So there's obviously

00:37:53.420 something else going on here. And, um, I think I just, I think that's how we have to look at it.

00:37:58.840 And, you know, by the way, you know, twice as many white people are killed by cops every year

00:38:03.000 as black people. Of course, there are many more white people in the country. So you could always

00:38:06.640 point that out, but it's still, if, if that's not, if it's true that, that cops are racist out

00:38:12.660 hunting for black people to kill, which is what we're told by BLM, you would not expect

00:38:16.420 based on that theory to find out that, uh, there are twice as many white people killed

00:38:22.020 by cops. It just, it doesn't work with the racist cop theory, does it? But that's the

00:38:25.960 fact. And so again, I think it just means that we need a, we need a different explanation

00:38:30.920 other than the racial one, uh, to get to the bottom of the police brutality issue.

00:40:30.540 the same thing. I, I don't know. I don't believe, I don't believe any of this. I don't, I, I,

00:40:37.700 the media is completely unhinged. The, the governors and the, everybody is just completely unhinged.

00:40:46.240 And it's like, we're the only people that believe in America anymore. Uh, you know,

00:40:50.280 believe in, in, in equal justice for all, uh, that believe in, uh, truth that, that all

00:41:00.800 of a sudden we're now saying, well, wait a minute. I don't think I believe the Corona virus

00:41:03.800 anymore. I don't think any of those people believed in the Corona virus at all. And the

00:41:08.320 incredible unemployment numbers, absolutely incredible. Our economy is so resilient. It's,

00:41:16.680 um, it's a blessing from God. Honestly, it's the Glenn Beck program.

00:46:43.300 Hi, Glenn. How are you today? I'm good. How are you? Good. You asked a question a few short minutes

00:46:50.120 ago that, uh, what, what do you think, uh, after everything that you've seen in the last week,

00:46:55.860 but it's far more than just in the last week. It's been since Trump announced that he was going

00:47:02.760 to run for president. I think the country is having a collective hissy fit that we defied

00:47:10.760 the polls that they put out there that he wasn't going to win, that Hillary is going to win.

00:47:15.560 And we elected him anyway, we put him in office. So since then it's been nothing but absolute chaos.

00:47:24.740 First it was Russia collusion. Then it was a Mueller report. Then it was impeachment because the state

00:47:31.440 department didn't agree with his foreign policy. And so that wasn't enough. So then we had to come

00:47:36.820 up with a global pandemic that came over from Europe and now we're going to use it to destroy

00:47:43.160 America. And like Rahm Emanuel, Emanuel never let a good crisis go to waste. So now we went from

00:47:51.840 coronavirus into, uh, let's just burn the house down. Like, uh, the psychokinetic storm that can

00:47:59.720 take place. If you become sick with coronavirus, where the human body just decides, you know,

00:48:04.720 well, we got to get rid of this virus and it causes people to die. Now Antifa is going to make sure

00:48:10.260 that America dies. And Kate, go ahead. You're starting to see, I'm starting to see cracks in,

00:48:21.940 I see it on TV when I watch just regular cable TV. I'm not talking about CNN or MSNBC, but you know,

00:48:29.740 the GOP, the GOP is starting to crack. Everybody is a political analyst. You're starting to hear them

00:48:37.180 say, Oh, well, you know, he shouldn't have said this and he shouldn't have said, these are people

00:48:42.320 that are supposed to be, um, right leaning or Republican or GOP political analysts.

00:48:48.860 And you see the cracks that everybody's really getting sick and tired of that, of, of the things

00:48:55.620 that he says and the chaos. And the message is, if you dare America, if you dare to reelect this man,

00:49:04.000 get ready for another four years and nonstop idiocy, chaos, mayhem, destruction. That's,

00:49:12.180 that's what I've been thinking this last week. Well, Kate, I have to tell you, uh, my feeling on

00:49:16.840 this is, uh, bring it on, bring it on. I'm not going to, uh, cower in a corner. Um, as everyone

00:49:23.620 is fully aware, Donald Trump has not been, who is, was not my pick for president. Um, but, uh,

00:49:30.060 he is our president and I respect him for that. And I told you my audience that I would judge him

00:49:35.460 based on the things that he does. Um, right now he's been, I think a little too distant or too far

00:49:43.340 out, uh, of, uh, of what's going on and needs to be talking to the American people more than he,

00:49:50.560 he has. Um, and he just needs to have a positive outlook and just do the right thing. He doesn't

00:49:59.480 need to combat these people anymore. They, they are, he didn't need to point this out.

00:50:04.820 America sees it. They do. And if honestly, if they are dumb enough to continue to fall for this,

00:50:13.300 they're on their own. I'm not going to be a part of it. I won't give up the fight, uh, for the

00:50:18.780 constitutional rights, the way we have it. I think we are seeing, um, well, Maxine Waters said it right.

00:50:25.340 She said that this isn't a riot. It's an insurrection. She said that as if it's a good

00:50:30.880 thing. An insurrection is exactly the law, the name of the law that, uh, the, uh, the president

00:50:37.980 said he would pull out and use if these governors didn't get control of their states, the insurrection

00:50:44.120 law of 1807. Well, that's outrageous. How could you do that? Well, she's saying it's an insurrection.

00:50:50.800 That's the law that applies to insurrection. This isn't about just changing the, the police. I wish

00:50:58.760 it was. I really do. Because I think that's where most people are. They're like, you know what? We

00:51:03.040 just have to make sure the bad guys go to jail. Well, the bad guys are going to go to jail unless

00:51:07.720 the Democrat who is an absolute radical, who is now the attorney general in the state where that

00:51:16.680 police officer and those police officers are being tried unless he reaches too far or doesn't make his

00:51:23.200 case. Those guys are going to jail. They're going to jail and everybody's going to be for that.

00:51:30.920 And, uh, but it's not about that. It's not about that. You have a wild, uh, I think at times a guy

00:51:39.640 who sounds very racist. Anybody who says that, you know, white America is a problem is just as racist

00:51:45.780 as anybody that says black America is the problem. Um, but you have him going in and trying

00:51:53.700 this. So what is, what is this about? Is this about somebody going to jail or is this just about

00:52:00.660 pointing out? Cause we're all with that. We don't want this to happen anymore, but that's not what

00:52:05.320 it is. This is about collapsing the government of the United States of America. It's not even about

00:52:12.260 Donald Trump. This is much bigger than Donald Trump. Now this is about whether we're going to

00:52:18.080 have capitalism or not, whether we're going to have a free nation or not, whether the rights that

00:52:22.840 are enshrined in our constitution are for everybody or just a select political few. That's what this is

00:52:30.040 really all about. This is the end game. And when you said you see cracks, I see more cracks, uh,

00:52:37.040 happening right now, uh, where the American people are going, wait a minute, wait a minute,

00:52:41.220 wait a minute. What happened to Corona virus? Wait, I lost my job. I, I lost my, uh, my business

00:52:48.300 and wait, I don't, you guys didn't even believe it. None of you believed it. Why did you collapse

00:52:54.980 the economy? If it's okay to go outside to protest on something that's being taken care of,

00:53:02.020 if it's okay to go and protest, why wasn't it okay for me to protest about feeding my family and

00:53:06.860 having a job opening the state back up? Why did you say that you're never really going to open up

00:53:12.520 Los Angeles unless there's a cure that it won't be open until there is a cure. And then you go

00:53:18.540 march in the street. You, the same guy who said that marches in the street with no social distancing.

00:53:24.480 You didn't believe that. And you know, when you have, when you have CNN on television saying,

00:53:31.380 this is a largely, uh, uh, peaceful protest and you know, there are 10 going on right now,

00:53:37.760 uh, all across the country and they're peaceful. And we go now to our reporter, Heather, what's her

00:53:43.320 smack and, uh, and, uh, Heather, what's her smack? What's what's happening? And it goes to her

00:53:48.100 and there's a car on fire behind her. And she's like, Oh, well, you know, this was did start

00:53:55.040 out to be pretty peaceful. And they immediately go, well, uh, uh, uh, okay. Uh, Heather weather

00:53:59.740 smack, uh, uh, here we, we, we have, uh, uh, we have a Dick, uh, uh, Dick Heather smack over

00:54:05.160 here and he's in another city. Uh, let's go to him, a peaceful protest. And he's, you know,

00:54:10.060 he's, he's showing people behind him rioting. Uh, no, not really. Okay. Okay. I mean, people

00:54:15.720 are seeing it. They're asking you to deny what they're showing you. So when you talk about

00:54:22.800 cracks, the crack is, uh, being smoked by the left to think that America is not going

00:54:28.640 to see through this, this is the clearest it's ever been. You can't tell me that these

00:54:34.580 people love America and love the constitution when they are putting up with this kind of

00:54:40.240 stuff. You can't tell me that George Soros doesn't have influence when George Soros is

00:54:45.280 the guy who the people he got elected that he hand selected. They're the ones releasing

00:54:52.700 all the criminals into the speed in the streets. Wait, those were the same guys that said you

00:54:57.820 were a criminal. If you went out and protested because you didn't have a job, but let me tell

00:55:04.360 you something, man, I know I'm going to, I know I'm going to narrow cast here and my job

00:55:12.840 is to broadcast, but I don't, I'm sorry. It has to be said we are going to fail. We will

00:55:20.460 lose this country. If we don't turn back to God, we must turn back to God. God is giving

00:55:29.220 us another. I mean, he gives us lifelines after lifelines after lifelines. Do you know

00:55:35.520 what the unemployment number is today? Should have been 20 or even 25%. This now is the first

00:55:43.300 number that we have of, of all those layoffs. This is without, this is without any weeks

00:55:48.800 before the coronavirus. What is our unemployment number at Pat? It went from 14.7% to 13.3%.

00:56:01.560 Why? Uh, because we added two and a half million jobs last month. Can you believe that after

00:56:10.160 after week of losing 6 million, 4 million, 3 million, we added two and a half million jobs

00:56:15.860 last month. That is unreal. If that's not a blessing, I mean, we have 25% unemployment,

00:56:24.060 which is what was predicted. Uh, you know, we, we have all of these African Americans now

00:56:31.100 out of work. We have the youth out of work. We have the youth now graduating and not knowing

00:56:37.040 if they're even going to go to college next year. That's the Middle East. That cannot happen

00:56:44.360 in a stable society. And I believe it's beginning to look like it's all been orchestrated.

00:56:51.600 Now I hope to God not, but we do have two Americas. Let me quickly go to, uh, Sophie in Virginia.

00:57:03.120 Hello, Sophie. Hey Glenn. Hey Glenn. Hi. So after the recent protests, our governor, Ralph Northam,

00:57:13.400 the one who is known for the blackface debacle, he decided after they projected a picture of George

00:57:19.580 Floyd onto a Robert E. Lee statue in Richmond, that he's going to take it down. Because I guess

00:57:26.540 that's his way of virtue signaling that he's on the side of black lives matter and that he cares about

00:57:32.800 black people, even though he basically endorsed infanticide not too long ago. And in, in abortion

00:57:40.720 is the highest killer of black people in history. So I just, it, it makes me so angry listening to

00:57:50.720 these people who virtue signal about this stuff because they, they don't really have any virtues.

00:57:55.980 They'd have to prove that they have them. And this is not a way to help black people. Erasing

00:58:05.240 Southern history and taking down statues is not going to help fight racism. It's going to only lead

00:58:12.140 to erasing history. And after they take down these people like Robert E. Lee, who they could say one way

00:58:19.400 or another, that they did something bad, they're going to move on to our founding fathers and they're just

00:58:24.120 going to alter history and nobody seems to have a problem with it. Sophie, do you know where Robert

00:58:30.700 E. Lee's house is? I don't. And you live in Virginia? I do. I live in Roanoke. This is why you don't alter

00:58:41.900 history. And this is why you also have to read history because you actually do know where Robert

00:58:47.440 E. Lee's house is. It's in Arlington. Robert E. Lee had a house up on the top of the hill over the

00:58:55.240 Potomac, looking into Washington, DC. When we needed to bury the dead, they asked Lincoln, where should

00:59:01.900 we do it? And he said, bury the dead in Lee's front yard. He should know what he caused. So they left

00:59:10.820 his house standing there in Arlington at the cemetery. The Arlington National Cemetery was

00:59:17.660 Robert E. Lee's home and his land. You don't erase history. You try to understand and learn from

00:59:28.120 history. But all we hear about is, oh, Robert E. Lee, we, you know, we immediately glorify this man. No,

00:59:36.060 no. Arlington should be a stark reminder of Robert E. Lee and what, what happens when people go and they

00:59:47.860 break away for an unrighteous cause. Sophie, thank you so much for your phone call. Let me

00:59:53.540 quickly tell you about our sponsor. Let me break for one minute and tell you about Omaha Steaks. Oh,

01:01:18.120 Let me go to Alex on Friday. Alex is in California. Hello, Alex. What's up?

01:01:22.960 Hey, Glenn. After hearing your show yesterday, I wanted to bring you some hope. So I just wanted

01:01:30.400 to say I pledge to you, to everyone listening to Every American, my life, my fortune, and my

01:01:37.240 sacred honor, and promise before God, I'll do nothing he doesn't command, but freedom will

01:01:44.660 not be lost. How old are you, Alex?

01:01:52.360 30. You're 30. Your voice just sounds very, very young. What does that mean to you? You

01:02:00.140 pledge your life, your fortune, and your sacred honor. What does that mean?

01:02:03.700 It means standing up where it's hard when it's right. It means going against the tide when it feels

01:02:14.860 like you're the only one there. It means being right with yourself and with God, no matter what.

01:02:22.520 Alex, thank you for your phone call. I do the same to you. I pledge my life, my fortune, and my sacred honor.

01:02:37.260 We can't lose freedom in America because no matter what anyone says on how, you know, bad

01:02:50.740 America is, if America falls, the world freedom falls. China, Russia control the world. I don't want to

01:03:02.320 live in a world where China controls most of its people, let alone us. You think they're going to

01:03:08.560 leave us alone? You think if we fall and falter, we go into revolution, you think that we're going to,

01:03:16.400 first of all, what about the debt? What about the debt that we owe to China? Do you think they're not

01:03:22.880 going to come in and just say, we own this? You can't pay it back, so we're taking this? Of course they

01:03:29.620 will. Of course they will. We cannot fall or the world falls in darkness. It's not about my stuff.

01:03:41.480 It's not about my life. It's not about the president. It's about the rights that were entrusted to us

01:03:52.520 to pass on for further generations. See, that's the thing that people are not thinking about right now.

01:03:59.000 You're not hearing anyone saying, wait a minute, what does this mean for future generations?

01:04:02.780 What does this mean for future generations that we have $25 trillion in debt, a debt we can never,

01:04:09.160 ever repay? What does it mean for future generations if we lose our system of government?

01:04:21.040 Future generations are going to be damned. People just think that this just happens. It doesn't.

01:04:29.000 Let me go to John in North Carolina. Hi, John. How are you?

01:04:34.300 Hi, good morning, Beck. How are you doing?

01:04:37.380 I'm very good.

01:04:38.680 How are you doing?

01:04:40.060 Let everybody know and be aware of what's happening.

01:04:44.080 Hang on, John. Let's see if we can get a better connection with you, and let me come back here in a minute

01:04:48.820 because I can barely understand you, so hang on.

01:04:51.740 Back with your voice, America.

01:04:53.860 Next.

01:04:57.700 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:05:02.020 Somewhere in America, when in the sound of my voice, there's a man lying in a boat,

01:05:06.740 staring up at the blue expanse lit of fire by the morning sun.

01:05:10.460 He slowly bobs up and down with the rhythm of the waves, and a few feet away,

01:05:14.640 the bobber and the worm on his hook do the same.

01:05:16.680 Hard work errates him when the fishing's over, and the day actually begins, but he doesn't care right now.

01:05:23.920 He's just there on the lake.

01:05:25.940 What's happening on the shore is no mind to him.

01:05:30.040 He's just noting the shapes of the clouds and tapping his toe against the keel of the boat,

01:05:34.220 the neoclassical tune of lapping waves.

01:05:38.120 And the tapping?

01:05:38.960 The tapping toe?

01:05:40.160 It's clad in a pair of Takovas boots.

01:05:42.020 Nothing bridges the gap between the idle delight of that moment and the hard-working integrity that awaits him,

01:05:48.420 like a pair of Takovas boots.

01:05:50.580 Made by 200 steps.

01:05:52.900 Hand-made boots.

01:05:54.880 200 steps.

01:05:56.100 Most comfortable, most fashionable pair of footwear he owns.

01:05:59.760 Twice the boot for half the price.

01:06:02.400 What a good old world it is.

01:06:03.920 Find your pair of Takovas at takovas.com slash beck.

01:06:07.000 That's T-E-C-O-V-A-S dot com slash beck.

01:06:19.040 Book Arguing with Socialists out right now.

01:06:27.740 Hello, America.

01:06:28.740 Welcome to Friday.

01:06:29.640 In all the news that is news, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

01:06:33.620 NASA is keeping tabs on five asteroids heading towards Earth over the next few days.

01:06:39.180 One of them is the size of a stadium.

01:06:42.280 According to NASA, their asteroid watch, the largest of the five, is about 1,100 feet wide, roughly the size of a stadium.

01:06:51.280 It's expected to be the nearest to the Earth on June 6th.

01:06:56.000 They say it doesn't pose a threat.

01:06:58.700 Well, I believe that.

01:07:01.340 But then again, I've been told that Antifa doesn't pose a threat to America either.

01:07:09.820 So we'll see.

01:07:11.480 Anybody out there praying to be hit by an asteroid?

01:07:13.760 I mean, if it was just all of a sudden we're like, oh, my gosh, the sky's getting pretty dark.

01:07:18.140 Wow.

01:07:18.400 That looks really boom.

01:07:19.980 And we're all dead.

01:07:20.900 Would it really?

01:07:22.300 I mean, it wouldn't be such a bad option, would it?

01:07:24.660 Maybe it's just me.

01:07:29.400 There's a couple of other things that I just want to point out before we go back to John in North Carolina.

01:07:36.420 Breathing is sacred.

01:07:38.320 This is what the protesters are saying now in Italy.

01:07:43.760 Why are the orange vests protesting what's happening in America in Italy?

01:07:57.360 Seems as though protests and riots are breaking out all over the world now, which is strange because we're told this is just about racism in America,

01:08:11.920 even though they're all saying this is about putting an end to the democratic society of America and capitalism.

01:08:21.960 Maybe.

01:08:23.740 Maybe the people in Italy wouldn't care so much about what happened in Minneapolis because they probably don't even know that Minneapolis is a state,

01:08:31.240 but maybe they would care about an end to capitalism.

01:08:36.720 I think it's going to take their time over in Italy protesting.

01:08:41.960 It's kind of weird, isn't it?

01:08:44.160 All right.

01:08:44.680 Let me go back to John in North Carolina.

01:08:46.600 Hello, John.

01:08:47.180 You're on.

01:08:48.420 Yes, sir.

01:08:49.280 I just wanted to let people be aware of what's going on in Hillsborough, North Carolina, the nursing homes.

01:08:56.760 My wife's grandpa, he's been given a couple weeks to live, non-COVID related.

01:09:05.720 He's got cancer and a couple other things, plus he's just old.

01:09:09.140 The nursing home, they offered my wife's mama $1,000 if she would allow them to put COVID on his death certificate when he passes away

01:09:24.580 and let her know that the nursing home gets $13,000 per COVID-related death.

01:09:32.080 And he's been tested and has come back negative every time he's been tested for COVID.

01:09:43.700 And you're not going to allow that to happen, right?

01:09:47.180 No, sir.

01:09:48.660 Is anybody in your area covering this in the local news?

01:09:53.980 Not that I'm aware of.

01:09:58.120 This happened yesterday, and my mother-in-law, she says she's going to reach out to a couple people

01:10:05.580 and see if there's something that she's able to do about it.

01:10:10.220 Well, I sure think, John, that you need to bring this to a local news station after you've gone the rounds

01:10:17.880 and tried to get somebody locally to cover it.

01:10:19.880 If they don't, call us back, and we will cover it.

01:10:23.720 This is happening all across America.

01:10:26.860 What's happening in our nursing homes is absolutely despicable.

01:10:30.220 I mean, it is, I hate to say it, but it is almost a cleansing of our nursing homes, the way this has been done.

01:10:40.360 When it comes to our nursing homes being held responsible in New York,

01:10:43.940 after a very large donation to the governor, New York, he signed in a new law that would keep them

01:10:57.000 from not being responsible for anything that was happening as he just made those death mills.

01:11:04.600 Is anybody going to cover that?

01:11:06.960 We have to keep record of what's going on.

01:11:09.420 Please, please keep a journal, because these times are so important,

01:11:15.940 and history will write about these times.

01:11:18.440 And depending on who wins, if we don't win, this story is never going to be told.

01:11:24.660 You need to keep a journal.

01:11:27.140 Mike in Colorado, hi.

01:11:29.180 Hi, Glenn.

01:11:32.280 Thank you for taking my call.

01:11:34.200 I just wanted to say that I believe everything that's happening is real.

01:11:41.380 COVID's real.

01:11:43.040 The riots, but it's all definitely being exploited.

01:11:47.400 I believe it's all really to get Trump and what you're saying to change America.

01:11:53.440 But I also, I want to try to give a little bit of hope.

01:11:59.300 I think that the average person, when they step back and they look at the whole situation,

01:12:06.040 especially with COVID, I think they're going to start putting two and two together.

01:12:11.360 I do too.

01:12:12.360 And I think because of that, I mean, the people that hate Trump, you're not changing their mind.

01:12:18.220 The people that love Trump, you're not changing their mind.

01:12:21.100 I think that the two to three percent that really swing an election, I think those people

01:12:29.000 are going to see what's actually happening.

01:12:31.780 And because of that, I really do think that Trump's going to get reelected.

01:12:36.900 But on top of that, I think the Democrats are really going to suffer a political loss in November.

01:12:46.140 I hope so, Mike.

01:12:50.080 I hope so.

01:12:51.040 But a lot can happen in between now and then.

01:12:54.320 But I do hope so.

01:12:55.600 I don't think that we survive unless there is a reset of justice.

01:13:03.220 I just don't think we survive.

01:13:05.040 Brennan in Virginia.

01:13:06.460 Welcome.

01:13:08.300 Hi, Glenn.

01:13:09.160 I'm just wondering, and no one's talking about this, but to what extent do you think the Great

01:13:13.540 Society and LBJ have had in shaping the kind of climate that we now see with Black Lives

01:13:20.200 Matter?

01:13:21.700 Oh, I think a huge role.

01:13:24.460 Wow.

01:13:24.980 That's a out of left field kind of thinking.

01:13:28.220 Good for you.

01:13:28.920 I think a huge role.

01:13:30.100 You know, I've always been interested in looking into this, and I've never had the time to

01:13:35.600 do it.

01:13:36.580 But someday before I die, I want to research and write a book, if it turns out to be true,

01:13:42.700 that LBJ and all of the progressive racists of the day knew exactly what they were writing

01:13:50.880 and what they were doing when they formed the Great Society, you can't take a guy who

01:13:56.720 was as racist as Johnson and then make him into the guy who is holding up the black communities

01:14:06.300 and saying, you know, we've got to change and we're going to be the babysitter and we're

01:14:11.000 going to help and we're going to rebuild and then have the kind of results that it has

01:14:15.880 had and not at least question, hmm, was that by design?

01:14:22.120 Was that really just a mistake or was that by design?

01:14:25.200 Because it was the turning point in the black community was Great Society.

01:14:29.920 And I think LBJ was chapter three in what I think is a five chapter book on progressive

01:14:37.000 revolution.

01:14:38.100 The progressives knew that Americans didn't want a bloody revolution.

01:14:42.640 They would just have to slowly be taken into it.

01:14:45.060 Uh, and so the first chapter was with the most racist president we've ever had.

01:14:50.560 And that's saying something.

01:14:51.840 I mean, I put Andrew Jackson in that, uh, in that, uh, league.

01:14:55.880 Um, but the first chapter was Woodrow Wilson.

01:14:58.860 The second was FDR.

01:15:00.340 The third was LBJ.

01:15:02.260 The fourth was Obama.

01:15:04.120 And I think the fifth chapter of this book may be being written right now.

01:15:08.960 And it is the final chapter, I believe.

01:15:11.640 Uh, we don't know what the ending is, but I think those are the final chapter.

01:15:15.040 It's interesting to me that each of those administrations also had a profound effect on the

01:15:20.820 university system.

01:15:21.800 And I think the university EDU is more responsible than any other group in the destruction of

01:15:31.740 our, of our country.

01:15:33.720 Um, based on how they change things with Woodrow Wilson and the early progressives, we don't

01:15:41.460 really have a chance because our kids are not educated, which by the way, reminds me Mercury

01:15:47.180 one, every summer has, uh, a, a leadership program.

01:15:52.700 It's a two week program for your kids or maybe you, if you're under 24, it's 18 to 24.

01:15:59.800 Uh, and it is a, it's a teaching, uh, course that we have been teaching people in college.

01:16:08.100 Some, some teachers have even, uh, joined us on this, uh, and you get to hold the actual

01:16:14.940 documents and do the research yourself.

01:16:17.380 And it really kind of strips you down at the very beginning and challenges everything you

01:16:22.600 believe.

01:16:23.160 And then over a two week period, it rebuilds it, but based on original sources, uh, we

01:16:29.900 don't select everybody who applies.

01:16:31.940 This is probably the last year that we're going to be doing it this way.

01:16:35.500 Um, because hopefully we'll have a very exciting announcement coming up this summer.

01:16:40.500 Um, but, uh, if your kids want to be involved and learn true history, you want to train

01:16:46.980 yourself to be a leader in these times and the times that will come join us.

01:16:52.280 And our Mercury one leadership training program, you can, uh, you can register right now.

01:16:58.480 We'll be interviewing people.

01:17:00.200 Not everybody gets a chance to go, but we would love to have you or your loved one there

01:17:04.900 18 to 24 years of age only this year.

01:17:08.620 And, uh, you can find it at mercury one.org.

01:17:11.820 Let me go to Steve in Virginia.

01:17:13.440 Hello, Steve.

01:17:17.980 So good to hear.

01:17:18.980 Yes, Steve.

01:17:19.720 Are you there?

01:17:20.940 Good to hear you.

01:17:21.640 I'm glad to be on your show.

01:17:22.660 I just, I just, I'm sorry.

01:17:24.040 I had a problem with my phone.

01:17:25.260 And I just want to say, I am eternally grateful that there was this guy, Glenn Beck, that came

01:17:29.680 around in 2001 on September.

01:17:33.420 Oh, wow.

01:17:33.900 You came on the radio here in Richmond, Virginia.

01:17:36.660 And I was a little upset because I like Dr. Laura, but I, you know, I had to burn him.

01:17:42.420 And I really like you.

01:17:45.660 And I, I called the day because it's been on my heart.

01:17:48.200 There's a big butt coming.

01:17:49.460 And I just, I, it is.

01:17:51.960 All right.

01:17:52.960 All right.

01:17:53.460 You talking about aha moments, I'm celebrating seven years of complete sobriety today.

01:17:58.220 And I thank you for that.

01:17:58.660 Good for you.

01:17:59.660 But you said we need to come back to God.

01:18:01.380 Good for you.

01:18:01.980 And I'm with you, brother.

01:18:03.560 Amen and amen.

01:18:04.760 And I read the Bible every day.

01:18:06.100 I keep a journal like you just said, and I believe that we do need to come back to God.

01:18:10.200 But I don't know how we do that with the guy that we got in the White House.

01:18:12.960 And I'm just concerned.

01:18:14.000 Please, please think about your undivided support for him because the things he says just divides

01:18:21.080 people horribly.

01:18:22.640 And I voted Republican every time I ever could until this presidential election, this past

01:18:27.120 one in 2016.

01:18:28.640 And I don't know.

01:18:29.460 I don't know what to do.

01:18:30.520 My conscience tells me I can't care for the man.

01:18:33.120 And I just, I love you.

01:18:34.300 And I don't want you to lose your witness in your testimony because it's powerful.

01:18:38.500 Thank you, Steve.

01:18:39.620 First of all, we remain friends.

01:18:41.560 We can talk about very divisive things without being divisive.

01:18:46.000 So thank you for your courage to call in.

01:18:48.640 Thank you for listening all these times.

01:18:51.300 And let's have a conversation about this.

01:18:54.080 We do have to come back to God.

01:18:55.860 That's not a political thing.

01:18:57.080 God is God is in charge of all of it.

01:19:01.780 And miracles will happen if the people turn back to him and apologize, repent and say,

01:19:13.360 gosh, we've made so many mistakes and we've got to do some soul searching here as a nation.

01:19:17.200 And we will abide by your laws, Lord.

01:19:21.660 We will do what you ask us to do.

01:19:24.720 That's all he's requiring for us.

01:19:27.000 And he'll do the rest.

01:19:29.200 You know, Donald Trump was not my pick in 2016.

01:19:33.040 I warned of these things in 2016.

01:19:37.920 However, he has done things that no other president has been able to do.

01:19:45.060 It bothers me when people say that, you know, he's God's hand or something like that.

01:19:51.260 I don't think so.

01:19:53.020 But I do know this and you do, too, Steve, that God can make lemonade out of nothing but lemons and bad, nasty lemons.

01:20:05.020 He's done it in my life.

01:20:06.700 There was no good in my life.

01:20:09.720 25 years ago that I was producing light, I think.

01:20:15.200 And he has taken my life and your life and every other alcoholic and has turned it around.

01:20:21.880 He has this way of making things work.

01:20:26.740 I don't know how he works.

01:20:28.680 I don't know how he creates.

01:20:30.320 I don't know what he's doing.

01:20:31.820 I don't know his plan.

01:20:33.780 I just know my part.

01:20:34.960 And my part is to accept the covenant of God that we are his people and this is his nation.

01:20:45.680 These are his rights and they don't belong to us.

01:20:49.140 They belong to all mankind.

01:20:50.760 And our biggest job is to protect those rights, not for ourselves, but for others.

01:20:58.180 How we get there, I don't know.

01:21:01.220 I do know that there is true, true darkness that is being embraced by the left.

01:21:09.700 It is coming from the left and it is embraced by the Democratic Party.

01:21:14.900 There are things that really deeply, deeply bother me about Donald Trump, but I don't know what else to do.

01:21:22.260 And I'm certainly not going to stay away from the polls and I cannot vote for the darkness that is in this particular party.

01:21:31.920 I thought we would be in worse shape than we are with Donald Trump.

01:21:36.820 I was wrong.

01:21:39.100 This is in God's hands.

01:21:41.940 Do the best you can.

01:21:44.560 All right.

01:21:45.240 Our sponsor.

01:21:46.820 Our sponsor is roughgreens.com and roughgreens.com has changed my dog's life.

01:21:54.060 It's changed our life as well.

01:21:55.560 I mean, we used to have to stand and I'm not kidding you, hand feed.

01:22:00.220 Oh, no, we hand fed him because he was about 90 pounds.

01:22:05.500 He should 90, 95.

01:22:06.960 He should be up at about 110.

01:22:09.100 We could never get him to eat.

01:22:11.700 And then we found roughgreens.

01:22:13.440 Now, it's not a food.

01:22:14.400 It's a supplement that puts you put on your dog's food and it's jam packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, omega oils and probiotics.

01:22:21.980 All the things that your dog needs.

01:22:24.500 I brought it to my vet and said, hey, what do you think of this?

01:22:26.620 And she said, please feed this.

01:22:28.200 This is great.

01:22:29.020 Um, so we fed him and he's now at 110 pounds and he is just lively.

01:22:34.740 He's the dog that he should be.

01:23:25.160 You've heard me talk about my Takovas boots and how much I love them and what a great company they come from.

01:23:31.580 It's a small business that's doing things the right way down here in Texas.

01:23:35.020 Well, given the challenges that we're going through as a country, Takovas has asked me to speak about something else that comes to mind every time I put on my Takovas boots.

01:23:43.100 The cowboy.

01:23:43.760 Now, you know, I'm not a working cowboy, but I know some of those guys and not being one of them, I wouldn't pretend to be.

01:23:51.560 But what I see in them, I see in other people, too, because in many ways, cowboy is just a mindset, an uncompromising can do attitude, a willingness to help even when it's really hard.

01:24:03.760 And most of all, the cowboy knows that the good guys always win in the end.

01:24:08.160 So as you begin the hard work of bootstrapping this country and economy back into shape, Takovas has the boots you need.

01:24:24.180 And what do you say?

01:24:25.420 Let's all be cowboys.

01:24:28.720 We all know that working from home can be really great.

01:24:33.880 However, one of the side effects of it, it's driving up the worst type of cybercrime, home title theft.

01:24:40.960 We're doing pretty much everything from home now.

01:24:42.980 Working, banking, video conferences, and cybercriminals are targeting our homes now.

01:24:48.120 Actually, they want the money that they can get by taking out loans against your home.

01:24:53.160 So they steal your home's title, which is stored online, and just transfer the ownership to them.

01:24:59.360 Then they take it to a bank and take out a massive loan against your home.

01:25:03.320 You don't know anything about this happening until you start getting, you know, the bill to pay up on the loan.

01:25:10.520 It's surprise!

01:25:12.620 Home title theft.

01:25:13.520 It's one of the fastest growing crimes in America, according to the FBI.

01:25:18.080 So go to hometitlelock.com right now and register your address to see if you're already a victim.

01:25:39.640 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:26:03.600 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:26:11.420 Hello, America.

01:26:13.120 It's Friday.

01:26:15.260 This hour, the words that I think far too many Americans are afraid to say, afraid to voice,

01:26:23.120 or they just don't feel like they have a voice.

01:26:26.660 I'm going to say those words in 60 seconds.

01:26:29.860 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:26:35.960 I want to talk to you about Rectech Grills.

01:26:37.640 This is the best Father's Day gift you can give to your dad or for yourself.

01:26:42.400 Enter today for a chance to win the same grill that I use with Rectech's Father's Day Context

01:26:47.560 at rectechgrills.com slash Beck.

01:26:50.820 I've been telling you about this grill.

01:26:53.200 It is so rock solid.

01:26:55.580 It is made with steel.

01:26:57.100 When you go into Home Depot or wherever you're going to buy your grill, and you see these things,

01:27:02.560 they look nice, but I want you to compare them to a Rectech.

01:27:06.340 That thing is built like a 1956 Buick.

01:27:10.260 I mean, it is real steel.

01:27:12.680 And it was designed and built by grillers for grillers.

01:27:17.240 So this is a community, really.

01:27:18.720 When you go to their social media site, you see all the people that are sharing recipes and everything else.

01:27:23.900 These are people.

01:27:25.140 It's a lifestyle.

01:27:26.040 It really is.

01:27:27.160 And I now know why.

01:27:28.640 Because I've been using a Rectech grill for the last few months, and we cook with it every night.

01:27:33.760 We have had absolutely everything, and I've cooked with it every night since we've been up here on the ranch.

01:27:40.020 And, I mean, anything from chicken to steak to tofu.

01:27:45.980 I mean, honestly, I've got kids that are vegetarians.

01:27:49.880 I don't understand it.

01:27:51.000 But it makes everything.

01:27:52.560 Well, not the tofu.

01:27:53.400 But it makes everything taste good.

01:27:56.060 It's Rectech Grills.

01:28:21.100 So last night, I did something, and it ran about 90 minutes.

01:28:27.360 And I'm surprised at the reaction.

01:28:30.080 I'm really surprised at the reaction.

01:28:32.000 Because I thought it would not be very popular to do.

01:28:36.120 And what I did is I sat down with eight people that think very differently.

01:28:42.060 I mean, diehard Trump, diehard anti-Trump.

01:28:46.700 Dave Rubin, who was a liberal and is now, you know, a deep.

01:28:53.540 I want to say conservative.

01:28:58.380 I know he would object to that, but I don't mean it in the way everybody else means it.

01:29:02.640 He believes in conserving the things that are good in our country and fixing the things that are not good in our country.

01:29:11.040 That's what a conservative really is.

01:29:14.160 And I had about eight people.

01:29:18.700 And we just had a conversation.

01:29:21.140 And it was all based on what's happening.

01:29:23.260 And I was shocked that people were responding, saying, this was fantastic.

01:29:31.100 We need more of this.

01:29:32.920 I, while I was doing it, I felt that way.

01:29:36.860 But I thought, you know, do people even want to hear people's opinion anymore?

01:29:41.660 Because that's a problem.

01:29:42.760 Sometimes we don't.

01:29:44.020 We don't have honest conversations anymore.

01:29:45.920 And honest is the key here.

01:29:49.480 Not somebody who's trying to win, but just have, just understand.

01:29:53.700 I just want to understand what you're saying.

01:29:56.640 But we can't do that anymore.

01:29:58.300 Because if you talk about facts, you're a racist.

01:30:01.720 If you don't prostate yourself in front of the mob, you're a racist.

01:30:08.420 But I think millions of Americans are saying right now, I'm not a racist.

01:30:12.760 Because I'm not.

01:30:13.460 Maybe I've done racist things in the past, but I wasn't aware of it.

01:30:19.120 It was a mistake.

01:30:20.460 If I did it, I didn't know.

01:30:23.300 But I try really hard to be open to everybody.

01:30:27.240 I don't think I've ever done anything racist.

01:30:29.540 But perhaps I have.

01:30:30.800 And I would apologize for it.

01:30:32.940 To the people that were actually hurt at the time.

01:30:36.060 Not to a mob.

01:30:37.940 I don't know anybody who's really, truly racist.

01:30:41.080 And if I ever do hear those people, I immediately correct them and distance myself from them.

01:30:47.680 And there's nothing I can do to alleviate racism in my life other than to, quite frankly, overcorrect and give preferable treatment to blacks or other minorities.

01:30:58.620 Which I find myself doing here and there, I guess.

01:31:04.320 But I don't think it's fair.

01:31:06.520 I'm not posting the black box.

01:31:08.520 But that just means I'm sick of the mob.

01:31:11.400 I'm not kneeling down to anybody.

01:31:15.560 Sorry to say it, but the man that was buried today was not a martyr.

01:31:18.480 He was a criminal.

01:31:19.860 But like every other criminal, he should have been arrested respectfully and tried.

01:31:27.300 But he was a criminal that was arrested and now celebrated.

01:31:33.840 He shouldn't be celebrated.

01:31:36.100 We should be condemning the act of what happened after he was arrested.

01:31:41.560 I'm not happy with the police.

01:31:43.260 I'm no mouthpiece for the police.

01:31:45.140 I, quite honestly, have been worried for many years about the militarization of the police and police brutality.

01:31:52.980 It seems to be getting worse with all races.

01:31:57.220 And I don't think they're making matters any better for themselves.

01:32:00.880 During the coronavirus, the police really bothered me.

01:32:05.660 Do I need to complain more?

01:32:07.320 Yeah, I guess I do.

01:32:08.580 I mean, I think I'm being reasonable.

01:32:11.160 You know, when you look at things, there are lots of things that are that are unacceptable.

01:32:19.120 Let me show you a couple of video clips that I think were unacceptable.

01:32:23.420 The Buffalo PD and the attempt to murder an old man.

01:32:27.720 Do you have these clips for me, Sarah?

01:32:30.800 Here it is.

01:32:31.520 This is absolutely unacceptable.

01:32:37.520 He's bleeding out of his ear.

01:32:39.060 He's bleeding out of his ear.

01:32:40.020 He's bleeding out of his ear.

01:32:42.300 This is a guy protesting COVID.

01:32:46.080 All right.

01:32:46.720 Let's go to the next clip.

01:32:48.520 Absolutely unacceptable.

01:32:50.340 Here's the next clip.

01:32:54.160 Same thing.

01:32:56.380 Got that.

01:32:57.640 Got it.

01:32:58.520 We got that on camera.

01:32:59.940 Police brutality again.

01:33:05.320 Just.

01:33:07.160 Just arresting somebody just for marching.

01:33:10.360 Or how about this one?

01:33:12.120 Police officer in Virginia spits on a protester.

01:33:17.540 COVID during the crisis.

01:33:20.600 That's not that's not right.

01:33:22.820 How about the how about the guy who had he's Hispanic and he had his door broken into play this one?

01:33:32.340 I need to know why you busted my door in where the warrant is.

01:33:36.160 First of all, because you need them.

01:33:37.420 I don't care what kind of call you got outside from anybody walking around outside.

01:33:40.440 You need a warrant to bust my door in.

01:33:42.560 I just had four cops with AR-15s on my front door and busted it down because somebody called them, said a Hispanic male had an AK-47 or whatever.

01:33:54.500 And that's all that's all the information you need to bust my door down.

01:33:57.460 Okay, are you ready for me to answer?

01:34:01.220 No, I'm at.

01:34:01.760 That's the question.

01:34:02.600 Okay.

01:34:02.940 Because I know you need more than I'll be.

01:34:05.060 I'm well versed in this.

01:34:06.580 Okay.

01:34:06.860 Okay, I've done time.

01:34:07.880 I'm well versed in this.

01:34:09.100 You have no right.

01:34:10.080 I don't care who calls you.

01:34:11.240 I can answer.

01:34:11.700 I don't care who calls you.

01:34:12.600 You have no right to bust my door down without a warrant.

01:34:15.460 Even if I did have an AK-47 here, I am fully within my rights to own an AK-47.

01:34:20.840 So this guy is ranting and raving, but he's right because the cops broke his door down because they said they had a very vivid description.

01:34:33.840 When asked what the vivid description was, a Hispanic, listen to him here, under normal circumstances, a warrant is not needed.

01:34:42.900 Extenuating circumstances.

01:34:43.800 A full description.

01:34:44.940 All you guys had was a Hispanic male.

01:34:47.000 You had no clothes on.

01:34:48.100 This is wrong.

01:34:48.960 All of this stuff is wrong.

01:34:52.080 All of it is wrong.

01:34:55.440 I'm very much in favor of the police being respectful of all of the public at all times, even in tough times.

01:35:02.160 And I support them when they are.

01:35:04.980 I'm in favor of firing every bad cop we can find.

01:35:09.000 Constitutional Americans, you know what?

01:35:11.120 We've been far too timid.

01:35:12.280 We should have been marching in the streets peacefully until people are fired in the Justice Department and the FBI for the abuse of power and the corrupt procedures that they have used to frame innocent people in Washington, D.C.

01:35:28.640 But we're just too docile.

01:35:31.780 We don't do anything.

01:35:33.920 Over the last 10 years, I've seen personally how the wheels of justice can grind a man, a race, or just people with political differences down into dust.

01:35:44.300 I agree with the African-American.

01:35:47.460 This system is corrupt, and it needs to be cleaned.

01:35:50.720 That said, when we're talking about police officers, that is an insanely tough job.

01:35:58.100 I don't know how they do it.

01:35:59.780 I don't want to ever do it.

01:36:01.880 Somebody has to.

01:36:03.320 But they're facing being maimed or being killed.

01:36:06.540 And those good cops should be supported 1,000% and deserve our respect and be held up as the heroes that they are.

01:36:14.300 They do things that you wouldn't want to do and I wouldn't want to do.

01:36:17.800 The bad cops should be terminated.

01:36:21.960 But there's something else that needs to be said.

01:36:26.740 When you look at the stats, maybe black males should stop doing so many crimes.

01:36:34.680 37.5% of all violent crime is committed by African-Americans who make up 12% of the population.

01:36:42.120 Now, there's one glaring factor that would bring the number of police interactions that they have to suffer through way down.

01:36:51.620 This would be a good safety tip for all races, not just the blacks.

01:36:55.860 Stop committing crimes.

01:36:58.420 Now, that doesn't solve all the problems because I know a lot of white people that have gotten into a lot of trouble for going out and peacefully protesting coronavirus.

01:37:10.080 And they were treated like criminals.

01:37:12.300 So, I know this is a couple-a-week thing or a couple-a-month thing and it's been going on with blacks forever in America.

01:37:22.660 But I don't care what it looks like or who that person looks like when they come to kick down the door or to ask you questions to make you feel like a criminal when you're not.

01:37:34.480 That's got to stop.

01:37:36.200 That's got to stop.

01:37:37.380 But here's what we really have to say to one another.

01:37:43.860 There are good black people and there are good white people.

01:37:47.300 There are bad black people and there are bad white people.

01:37:51.220 And if all black people don't want to be lumped in with all criminals and looters and they shouldn't be, then why is it okay to lump me in with all of the bad white people?

01:38:02.580 Why is it okay to lump all of the bad cops in with all the good cops?

01:38:07.620 It's almost like it's okay to stereotype cops or white people, but anything else is literally hate speech.

01:38:17.280 Factual data is hate.

01:38:18.940 I can tell you right now, that data that I just gave you, it's going to be deemed hate speech.

01:38:24.380 I'm going to have all kinds of problems with it.

01:38:27.000 I don't care.

01:38:28.640 I'm done with that.

01:38:30.100 You know, Biden said that 10 to 15 percent of Americans are just not good people.

01:38:40.340 Blacks are 12 percent of the population.

01:38:42.280 Do you think he was talking about them?

01:38:45.840 12?

01:38:46.820 I'm sorry.

01:38:47.180 10 to 15 percent of Americans are just not good people.

01:38:51.280 So who's he talking about?

01:38:53.360 Which Americans are not good people?

01:38:56.940 Do you realize that if Trump would have said that, that exact narrative, what they would have said about him, they would have said he was absolutely talking about black people.

01:39:08.400 10 to 15 percent?

01:39:10.140 Whoa, that's kind of a coincidence, isn't it?

01:39:12.940 Blacks are 12 percent of the population.

01:39:16.140 And you know it's true.

01:39:17.640 But instead, reasonable people give Biden the doubt.

01:39:24.040 But let me ask you this.

01:39:26.020 If you believe that 10 to 15 percent of Americans are bad people, which I think is awfully high, what are you going to do about it?

01:39:33.560 Are you going to round them up?

01:39:35.280 Are you going to ban them from the Internet?

01:39:36.720 Are you going to kill them?

01:39:37.600 What are you going to do?

01:39:38.560 People have a right to be jerks.

01:39:42.000 People have a right to be flat out racist.

01:39:44.660 I don't like it.

01:39:45.580 I don't want them around me.

01:39:46.840 But they have a right to do that.

01:39:49.440 Let me give you an example.

01:39:51.280 This is from a Twitter feed from John Boyega.

01:39:55.760 I really effing hate racists.

01:39:59.320 Dexie Dale, nobody loves racists.

01:40:01.340 I'm from Nigeria.

01:40:02.700 My ex said she hates whites, so I broke up with her.

01:40:05.740 John responds, I'm talking about the white on black racism, the kind that ruined the world, not caused a little breakup with your girlfriend.

01:40:14.440 Why is that on Twitter?

01:40:15.900 Why can't I find that on Twitter?

01:40:19.480 That's racist.

01:40:21.160 But it's fine with everybody on the left.

01:40:23.300 How is this acceptable?

01:40:25.380 This is not about all men are created equal.

01:40:28.420 It's not.

01:40:29.220 This is not about justice, fair and equal justice for all.

01:40:34.380 This is, if I may, a dog whistle.

01:40:39.460 He's saying he hates a segment of white people.

01:40:45.720 And that's allowable because of world history.

01:40:49.560 Mark my words.

01:40:50.820 The world will weep.

01:40:52.580 The world will weep.

01:40:53.580 Will weep.

01:40:56.180 When they see when the European societies that have been built over the centuries, ugly as they have been in the past and even ugly as they are now.

01:41:10.500 When they are removed from the face of the earth, the world will weep and finally recognize what they actually had.

01:41:21.620 More in just a second.

01:41:30.220 Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

01:41:46.900 These are trying times.

01:41:49.280 And God only knows what is coming next.

01:41:52.100 You need a security system and one that if it goes off, they can actually verify that something is going on.

01:41:59.460 They can visually verify it, that something is going on.

01:42:02.280 They tell that to the 9-1-1 dispatch and your your emergency goes from the bottom of the list, an alarm going off to an actual break in.

01:42:12.940 So it goes from 42 minutes on average to seven minutes on average of the police arrival.

01:42:20.140 That is the system that I want for my house and my family.

01:42:42.920 You know, when you read Twitter, you'll see media celebrating racists, you know, and whatever.

01:43:06.320 I think the guy is a piece of hot garbage, but he has the right to be a racist and look like an idiot to the world.

01:43:11.920 But why do we have different standards for different races?

01:43:15.260 Isn't that itself racist?

01:43:17.860 I don't understand people that use the N word.

01:43:21.220 I'm offended by it.

01:43:22.560 I don't like it, but I see it in movies.

01:43:25.120 I see people calling and they say you can use it, but they can use it, but you can't.

01:43:29.300 That's nonsense.

01:43:30.660 That's absolute nonsense.

01:43:32.080 The word is either bad or it's not.

01:43:34.680 OK, it's I can't go into, you know, to a broadcast and use the F word because I'm a certain color or I have a different ideology.

01:43:44.300 No, it's the society says, no, you can't use that on broadcast.

01:43:48.220 So none of us do.

01:43:49.720 None of us do.

01:43:50.780 It's either good or it's bad.

01:43:57.860 Twitter is more racist than any than any group or person that I know.

01:44:04.120 Because all racism matters.

01:44:06.680 Meanwhile, a crowd of black people chased a kid down and beat him for allegedly wearing a Trump hat.

01:44:12.220 Is he dumb for going there?

01:44:15.360 Yeah, I think so.

01:44:16.740 Is he racist?

01:44:17.660 I don't know.

01:44:18.500 But even if he was, did he deserve to be beaten by a mob while police watch from their cars while doing nothing?

01:44:26.460 I mean, we have literally over a thousand examples of Trump supporters being violently attacked by the left.

01:44:34.180 Is Apple going to tweet their allyship to us?

01:44:37.500 Where's the big corporate campaign with every country or every company in the country?

01:44:43.240 The large ones, the small ones tweeting out their support for Trump voters that are beaten and killed by people who just hate, just hate.

01:44:55.060 By the way, the most racist person I've ever met in my whole life didn't hate all black people.

01:45:00.600 They hated all white people.

01:45:03.380 They they hated people like me.

01:45:06.760 They hate Donald Trump.

01:45:08.380 They hate anyone who votes for him.

01:45:10.520 They hate the police.

01:45:12.460 They hate everything that is different than them.

01:45:15.920 And that's not my opinion.

01:45:18.580 That's the data.

01:45:19.240 Data shows that the American left wing, white, right, the American left wing, white people are the only group who view their own race negatively.

01:45:32.020 Blacks.

01:45:33.640 Fifteen percent.

01:45:36.200 Positive.

01:45:37.620 Twelve point eight three for Hispanics.

01:45:40.920 The mean 13.

01:45:42.300 You're minus 13 with white liberals.

01:45:45.020 Non-liberal whites.

01:45:50.960 It's the exact opposite.

01:45:53.080 Why is that?

01:45:54.520 Why is that?

01:45:58.880 Why do we hate ourselves?

01:46:01.180 It's the preaching and the woke lecturing that's happening in this country that should be against hate.

01:46:08.520 But that will never fly, because hate is the fuel that progressives run on.

01:46:14.280 And without that, they wouldn't be anything.

01:46:19.660 Let's talk about white privilege for a second.

01:46:21.820 If you think white people are racist against black people, I would I would invite you to be a 13 year old white kid from Iowa who owned nothing but dress shirts moving to a black poverty stricken housing project in St. Petersburg.

01:46:36.340 That's a good friend of mine.

01:46:41.820 He's had his his butt beaten by black kids so many times for absolutely no reason.

01:46:47.820 He can't even count them.

01:46:50.340 Where's his ally?

01:46:51.980 Where's his ally?

01:46:54.020 What is he apologizing for?

01:46:55.760 He doesn't need one.

01:47:01.720 He doesn't need one.

01:47:03.020 And neither do you.

01:47:04.800 You have your own voice.

01:47:06.300 You have your own story.

01:47:07.880 And all stories.

01:47:10.160 Oh, they're all true, aren't they?

01:47:12.800 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:47:14.500 All right.

01:47:19.100 Our sponsor this half hour is CarShield.

01:47:22.820 I want to talk to you a little bit about the insanity of not thinking that your car is going to break down, especially if you're out of warranty.

01:47:35.640 That's when they always break down.

01:47:37.360 Think of it this way.

01:47:38.120 I want you to stop by the ATM on your way home and just grab $1,000, and then I want you to take that $1,000, assuming you could get $1,000 out of your bank account.

01:47:48.100 I just want you to take it over the sink and then just push it down slowly into the garbage disposal.

01:47:53.320 Just flip that baby on.

01:47:55.320 Sounds like a bad idea?

01:47:56.780 Well, that's what's happening.

01:47:58.620 First of all, most Americans can't get $1,000 from the bank account.

01:48:01.900 They don't have $1,000 in.

01:48:03.220 When that car goes down, it's going to cost you about $1,000.

01:48:05.940 Where do you have that money?

01:48:08.600 You don't.

01:48:09.820 Get CarShield.

01:48:10.780 They'll get you covered.

01:48:11.880 They will have a rental car for free while yours is in the shop.

01:48:14.880 They have free towing and roadside assistance for you.

01:48:19.380 And different plans that you design that start at $99 a month, you've got to have coverage now.

01:48:25.720 When your car breaks down, it's CarShield.com.

01:48:38.120 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:48:41.720 I'm glad that you are here today.

01:48:43.400 Thank you so much.

01:48:45.620 We have got to come together.

01:48:47.260 We have got to find a way around this.

01:48:49.140 But we also have to stand our ground and know that if it's about justice for everybody, if it's about making sure that the insanity that has happened for so long, and I think is getting worse in all communities, not just the black community.

01:49:05.960 But I think it's getting worse in all communities where the police have become increasingly militarized and are out of control.

01:49:14.200 That's got to stop.

01:49:15.280 And I think we can all come together on that.

01:49:17.320 This is the first thing I've seen in a long time where we all agreed, at least for a few minutes.

01:49:21.920 And then it kind of morphed and turned into something else and has caused a lot of damage.

01:49:29.680 And I don't care what the mainstream media says.

01:49:33.260 Yes, protests can be violent, but not effective protests are violent.

01:49:38.440 And I don't think a lot of these people are protesting.

01:49:43.960 And I don't mean that about when I say these people.

01:49:46.240 I don't mean about blacks.

01:49:47.960 I mean about there's a lot of white faces I see in burning cars and looting and everything else.

01:49:55.800 This is a problem with our society.

01:50:00.780 And I think our mayors, our governors, in some cases, are aiding and abetting.

01:50:06.400 And the destruction to many businesses that were struggling already because of COVID now are struggling even more.

01:50:17.460 Some of them that were just on the edge are going out of business because they can't make it.

01:50:24.440 So what do we do?

01:50:25.580 And is anybody else bothered by the notion that you don't have to social distance if you're protesting for the right thing?

01:50:40.220 I don't understand it.

01:50:42.360 Now, I saw a story, I think it was on Monday, about the owner of the Broadway Wine and Spirits in Santa Monica,

01:50:48.420 who was protecting himself and his store with neighbors and friends.

01:50:53.820 They all kind of got together.

01:50:55.700 And they were protecting his store with, I believe the article said, automatic weapons or semi-automatic weapons, ARs.

01:51:05.320 I didn't even know you could have an AR in California.

01:51:08.340 But I wanted to talk to him because there's a good ending to this story.

01:51:12.140 And Joe Green is on with us now.

01:51:14.120 Hi, Joe.

01:51:15.160 Hi, how are you doing?

01:51:17.300 I'm good.

01:51:18.240 So tell me what happened Sunday night.

01:51:20.140 How did this unfold?

01:51:22.260 Well, you know, we thought it was going to be a peaceful protest.

01:51:26.100 But we've had a few other protests here nearby in California, and they turned bad.

01:51:33.780 A lot of looting and a lot of vandalism.

01:51:36.140 So when they came to Santa Monica, you know, they were gathered at the oceanfront down there.

01:51:43.300 And the crowd just, it got tremendous.

01:51:46.600 When they were showing aerial views, it was just a lot of people.

01:51:49.800 So at that time, I knew that, you know, our police department couldn't handle it.

01:51:57.560 Yeah, it was overwhelmed.

01:51:59.140 So then when the looting started, because we have a Third Street promenade, which is just three blocks off the ocean.

01:52:05.440 And when it started, then that's when, you know, I started preparing myself.

01:52:10.900 I, you know, I closed up the store.

01:52:14.180 I got my wife out of here.

01:52:15.820 You know, I started calling a few friends to see what was going on.

01:52:20.120 And it started really early.

01:52:23.120 I mean, this is like 3.30, 4 o'clock.

01:52:26.040 I mean, it's broad daylight.

01:52:28.860 So it got scary.

01:52:31.320 I mean, well, I'm all for protesting, and I'm all for Black Lives Matter.

01:52:34.920 You know, something needs to be done about that.

01:52:38.340 But looting and vandalizing and destroying somebody's livelihood, not acceptable.

01:52:42.460 So, Joe, did you have ARs that you were protecting the store with?

01:52:50.320 Yes.

01:52:51.420 You know, a few of my neighbors, you know, they're licensed gun owners, and they had an AR.

01:52:59.300 And the person across the street had an AR.

01:53:01.900 We had 9 millimeters, 12 gauge, a few bats.

01:53:05.980 You know, we just, you know, there wasn't going to come in here and take this store without a fight.

01:53:11.000 You know, it's just, I mean, it's...

01:53:13.660 Doesn't that make you almost a pariah in California?

01:53:20.820 Well, a lot of people frown on it, you know, because you have a lot of liberals out here that just, you know,

01:53:26.040 you should just lock up, and that's what your insurance is for.

01:53:29.520 Well, insurance doesn't cover that.

01:53:31.440 You know, insurance doesn't cover inventory loss.

01:53:33.500 You know, it's a...

01:53:36.160 So, you went in about 3 o'clock in the afternoon is when you started thinking trouble is coming,

01:53:43.900 and it came shortly after your windows were smashed, and by the time you got there,

01:53:48.860 people were starting to smash more and try to get in and grab things.

01:53:52.400 But you didn't go home.

01:53:53.800 The authorities didn't actually arrive until the National Guard arrived at, what, about 4 o'clock in the morning?

01:54:00.160 4 o'clock the next morning, yes.

01:54:02.300 So, it was a long night.

01:54:05.020 I bet it was.

01:54:06.060 I bet it was.

01:54:06.960 I mean, like I said, I've never seen anything like it.

01:54:09.300 I don't want to ever relive Sunday.

01:54:11.220 I mean, that's...

01:54:13.500 It got really dicey, and I, you know, I have friends out here and customers that were standing with me,

01:54:22.440 and I would never be able to live with myself if anything happened to any one of them, you know.

01:54:28.000 So, Joe...

01:54:29.920 It turned out how it did.

01:54:32.320 I want to get to the ending of this story here in a second, but I want to ask you,

01:54:37.700 how do Californians and business people react when you've been told by the governor,

01:54:46.640 and specifically the mayor of Los Angeles has been, I think, one of the worst,

01:54:50.280 is that we're not fully going to be reopened until there's a cure for coronavirus.

01:54:56.880 They've been arresting people that have been surfing on the beaches.

01:55:00.440 They've kept stores closed, all because of coronavirus.

01:55:03.660 And now they're saying that it's okay, and in fact, the mayor of Los Angeles is marching down the street

01:55:10.080 with the protesters at times without a mask.

01:55:12.620 Does this make sense to you?

01:55:14.700 How do you process that?

01:55:16.400 It's like a double standard, you know.

01:55:18.800 It's just like, you know, you tell the stores that are open that you have to have social distancing

01:55:24.480 and you have to wear a mask, but you can gather in these humongous...

01:55:30.540 I mean, probably 5,000 people down there on Sunday.

01:55:35.500 Nobody, you know, most wearing masks, but a lot not wearing masks and not social distancing.

01:55:41.580 And, you know, it's just...

01:55:43.300 And then, you know, like you were saying, you know, the mayor and it's just put a lot of businesses in dire straits.

01:55:54.840 I mean, they're struggling to make it.

01:55:56.660 So what do people in California that you know, Joe, say of this?

01:56:02.000 Because I think there's a lot of people around the country that say,

01:56:04.680 wait a minute, I do believe the coronavirus was real, but did they just take advantage of this?

01:56:10.980 Did they believe any of this?

01:56:13.160 Why are doctors now coming out and saying that, you know, racism is a plague on humanity,

01:56:20.620 and so if you're going to protest racism, that's more important than the coronavirus?

01:56:25.740 How are doctors saying these things when so many people have lost their jobs or lost their businesses?

01:56:34.920 How do you reconcile this in California with your leadership?

01:56:39.920 That's one of the main questions.

01:56:42.080 I mean, it's just like, we're ready to reopen.

01:56:44.020 I mean, you know, the barber shops, the hairdressers, nail salons, the restaurants, especially the restaurants.

01:56:52.160 I mean, this is, you know, most people, you know, nobody goes home and cooks a meal anymore because both parents have to work.

01:56:59.960 You know, it's just, you know, so we're ready for it to open up.

01:57:03.680 We're ready for a business to get back to normal.

01:57:05.680 And it's been tough.

01:57:08.760 And then, like I said, with all this on top of it, you know, and then you use the coronavirus and then, but it's okay to protest.

01:57:17.560 And it just, I know a lot of people that are ready for all this to end and just get back to some normality here.

01:57:26.440 Let me just take you to the ending of the story.

01:57:28.880 The next day, you saw a guy with a broom.

01:57:32.560 Tell me what happened.

01:57:34.340 The next day, the sun was coming up.

01:57:37.360 The National Guard done made its way downtown.

01:57:41.480 I'm just like, wow.

01:57:42.880 You know, we have a few helicopters up there, but the light is starting to come out.

01:57:46.740 I see a middle-aged black gentleman coming down the street with a broom in his dustpan.

01:57:51.620 And he says, we have to start somewhere.

01:57:54.240 And it was just, it was beautiful.

01:57:56.120 And, I mean, within an hour, the community, I mean, it was a beautiful thing.

01:58:00.920 The community came together, and you couldn't even tell within, by 12 noon Monday, all the graffiti was gone.

01:58:08.360 All the, all the carnage, all the, everything was gone.

01:58:11.760 Glass was cleaned up.

01:58:13.400 Windows were boarded.

01:58:14.720 I mean, it was a community coming together.

01:58:16.920 It was nice.

01:58:19.000 Joe, thanks for ending it there.

01:58:20.680 God bless you.

01:58:21.380 Thank you.

01:58:21.760 And best to you and your customers at Broadway Wine and Spirits in Santa Monica.

01:58:28.340 I have to tell you, I think one of the biggest things that people are going to have to deal with soon is how do you make sense of these two things?

01:58:37.720 They still can't open up.

01:58:39.620 They still can't open up because of coronavirus.

01:58:41.900 But how do you make sense of this?

01:58:44.080 And how do you make sense in 21 days if you don't see a lot of people getting sick?

01:58:51.000 All right.

01:58:52.100 Our sponsor is American Financing.

01:58:54.920 You need to cut all unnecessary expenditures.

01:58:57.680 And how about if I told you that an unnecessary expenditure is a lot of the interest that you are paying on your house, on your mortgage payment?

01:59:05.220 Unnecessary.

01:59:07.700 Because when you made that deal, even if you made it at the first of this year, interest rates were a lot higher than they are right now.

01:59:15.740 And every sliver of a percentage point that you can get on your mortgage ends up to be a lot of money.

01:59:24.120 So if your mortgage is now over 4% or at 4%, AmericanFinancing.net may be able to save you hundreds, if not over thousands of dollars every single month.

01:59:35.900 What would that do to your financial picture?

01:59:38.360 Please take 10 minutes out of your day and call AmericanFinancing.net.

01:59:56.680 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

02:00:07.220 Oh, some really good news from The Hill.

02:00:10.260 They've done some investigative reporting, Pat.

02:00:12.400 And I think you and everybody else needs to go into the weekend with this good news.

02:00:17.420 The Hill is now reporting it's likely that it is Antifa, not white supremacists, neo-Nazis behind the anarchy in America's streets.

02:00:27.680 Oh, no.

02:00:28.380 Really?

02:00:28.700 It's likely that?

02:00:29.640 Yeah.

02:00:30.200 Huh.

02:00:30.800 It's likely.

02:00:32.100 It's likely.

02:00:33.220 A stunning surprise.

02:00:35.300 Now, by the way, if it is white supremacists or neo-Nazis, they're the same people.

02:00:40.640 They want anarchy.

02:00:41.520 They want a destruction to the United States of America.

02:00:44.460 They want socialism.

02:00:45.600 They don't agree with the Bill of Rights.

02:00:47.900 They don't agree with the Constitution of America.

02:00:50.440 So, same thing.

02:00:52.140 Same thing.

02:00:53.080 But it's most likely.

02:00:55.460 I shouldn't say most likely.

02:00:56.780 It is likely now, according to The Hill, to be Antifa.

02:01:00.840 So, we got that going for us.

02:01:02.120 Surprise!

02:01:02.620 Can I ask you, you follow sports.

02:01:06.220 I do.

02:01:06.580 I obviously, if you were listening yesterday, I don't.

02:01:10.400 But, Drew Brees, when last I left this story, he apologized yesterday in a lengthy tweet.

02:01:18.840 Right?

02:01:19.380 Yes.

02:01:19.920 But apparently, that wasn't quite enough.

02:01:21.960 And now, in a video, he has apologized further because there was so much more to say.

02:01:28.320 And here's what he said.

02:01:29.120 Really?

02:01:29.760 So much to say.

02:01:30.720 Yeah.

02:01:31.000 I know there's not much that I can say that would make things any better right now.

02:01:34.600 But I'm going to say it.

02:01:35.480 And I'm going to do it.

02:01:35.680 I just want you to see in my eyes how sorry I am.

02:01:37.620 I do see your eyes.

02:01:38.360 The comments that I made yesterday.

02:01:39.880 Yeah.

02:01:40.220 I know that it hurt many people.

02:01:42.300 Especially...

02:01:42.860 Many.

02:01:43.580 ...friends, teammates, former teammates, loved ones.

02:01:47.880 Yeah.

02:01:48.140 People that I care and respect each other.

02:01:48.700 We have a soap opera organ, by chance.

02:01:50.980 Sarah?

02:01:51.660 That was never my intention.

02:01:54.080 Never.

02:01:54.300 I wish I would have laid out what was on my heart.

02:01:57.720 What?

02:01:58.200 What was on your heart?

02:01:58.760 The George Floyd murder.

02:02:00.780 Ahmaud Arbery.

02:02:02.720 The years and years of social injustice.

02:02:05.720 Yeah.

02:02:06.040 Police brutality.

02:02:07.140 Mm-hmm.

02:02:08.000 Right.

02:02:08.800 And the need for so much reform and change.

02:02:12.440 Yeah.

02:02:12.760 Now you realize the country sucks.

02:02:16.420 I said a couple of days ago that I love this country and that it's disrespectful to disrespect the country.

02:02:23.340 But now I realize it sucks.

02:02:26.420 So why is he doing this?

02:02:27.840 Because I'm sure...

02:02:30.380 Isn't the owner of St. Louis?

02:02:31.720 I mean, he's pretty conservative, isn't he?

02:02:33.760 I mean, he's not going to get...

02:02:34.780 Yeah, New Orleans.

02:02:35.500 Yeah.

02:02:35.740 New Orleans.

02:02:36.040 No, he would not get fired.

02:02:36.780 He's not going to get fired.

02:02:37.900 But I'm sure that with all the praise and adoration that Drew Brees gets, the Twitter mob that came down on him the other day had to be...

02:02:45.520 It had to surprise him and scare him because he's not used to that.

02:02:50.260 You know, we are because we get it all the time.

02:02:52.760 But I'm sure Drew Brees wasn't used to that.

02:02:55.820 And then when he's even got teammates coming down on him, that makes it tough.

02:02:59.080 So what I'm guessing now is not only has he apologized with about an 84-page social media apology and then the video,

02:03:09.160 I predict he's going to kneel with his teammates when the season rolls around.

02:03:14.340 Well, now, wait a minute.

02:03:15.320 Hang on just a second.

02:03:16.040 I think before he kneels at the open of the season, something has to happen sooner than that.

02:03:23.800 I think he may take a knee as he strikes a match and lights maybe the National Archives on fire or something like that to show that he really is in solidarity.

02:03:36.260 Well, you're right.

02:03:37.720 Yeah, because the season's not coming soon enough.

02:03:40.200 It needs to be...

02:03:41.200 No, it's got to be...

02:03:42.080 He's got to make a statement.

02:03:43.200 It's got to be bold.

02:03:44.680 Maybe he can...

02:03:46.200 I don't know.

02:03:47.240 Maybe he can take an old blow-up Bozo doll and just beat the president to death with it.

02:03:53.460 If he could get in the same room with him, just takes that blow-up Bozo doll and just beats him over and over again in the head.

02:03:58.480 But it's got to be on social media.

02:04:00.920 It's got to be live on Instagram or Facebook or something like that.

02:04:05.800 What if he does a Facebook live spray painting of the Lincoln Memorial?

02:04:11.060 Would that be enough if he spray paints Black Lives Matter on Abraham Lincoln?

02:04:16.580 Yes, but he cannot...

02:04:17.360 If he's doing that in black spray paint, that's fine.

02:04:21.100 But he cannot spray the entire statue black.

02:04:24.440 We leave the face white.

02:04:25.920 You cannot make it white, Drew.

02:04:28.280 Or you can't make it black.

02:04:29.200 Don't use spray paint to give Lincoln a blackface.

02:04:32.140 That would be horrible.

02:04:32.980 Yeah, then it would be very, very bad.

02:04:35.320 Very bad.

02:04:36.800 And you would never be able to keep your late-night show with NBC.

02:04:41.040 Oh, wait.

02:04:41.580 No, that's somebody else.

02:04:43.920 But anyway, you know, it's...

02:04:48.200 I was going to say sad, but it's actually a little disappointing.

02:04:52.120 Very.

02:04:52.720 To see somebody come out and say what he did.

02:04:55.180 Look, I'm never going to disrespect the flag and what it stands for.

02:04:58.900 And I don't agree with people who do that.

02:05:00.920 There's nothing wrong with that.

02:05:02.980 There's nothing wrong with that.

02:05:04.240 How was that hurtful?

02:05:05.680 How was that hurtful?

02:05:07.780 We've got to stop being bullied.

02:05:09.740 Yeah.

02:05:10.120 This is authoritarian.

02:05:11.900 And if we don't stand up now and start saying,

02:05:16.180 No, I'm not going to play that game anymore.

02:05:18.580 I will say what I mean and I mean what I say.

02:05:20.680 And I'm not going to play your little game anymore.

02:05:24.260 I'm not going to.

02:05:26.520 Black Lives Matter is not a good group.

02:05:29.740 Read their website.

02:05:31.380 Look at what they actually believe and are advocating.

02:05:34.100 You don't agree with that.

02:05:35.720 So don't say you're with Black Lives Matter unless you've read that.
