00:00:00.000 The Blaze Radio Network, on demand.
00:00:10.560 Love. Courage. Truth. Glenn Beck.
00:00:18.080 State mandated murder. That's the only way to describe it.
00:00:23.140 This is exactly what is happening in the United Kingdom.
00:00:25.760 The United Kingdom, England, is now mandating murder of a child.
00:00:33.280 Alfie Evans, 23-month-old boy, who is now defying his doctors and his government
00:00:39.580 by doing what none of them thought was possible.
00:00:43.120 Staying alive.
00:00:46.120 Whatever you're doing right now, I want you just to stop and say a prayer if you're able.
00:00:50.560 Yes, I know. Thoughts and prayers.
00:00:55.760 God is powerful.
00:00:59.140 God is active in our lives.
00:01:03.840 Alfie Evans is living proof.
00:01:07.240 If you don't know who Alfie is,
00:01:13.180 he is a, he's a little boy
00:01:17.860 who went into the hospital
00:01:19.780 into government care.
00:01:24.460 Doctors couldn't find out what was wrong with him.
00:01:26.980 They still don't have any idea.
00:01:31.540 But he is opening his eyes.
00:01:33.760 He is smiling at his parents.
00:01:35.660 They've decided that he needs to die.
00:01:41.600 The Pope has said, no, no, no, we'll take him.
00:01:44.540 The parents have said, we'll take him elsewhere.
00:01:47.580 But listen what's been going on in the past 48 hours.
00:01:51.200 A little over a day and a half ago,
00:01:53.300 the UK court system ordered that Alfie could no longer receive medical care
00:01:58.460 and had to be taken off of life support.
00:02:00.940 Do you remember when people mocked us about death panels?
00:02:04.240 This is what we said.
00:02:08.200 This is the death panel.
00:02:11.820 His parents have been watching in horror
00:02:13.920 as they disconnected their son's breathing tube.
00:02:17.320 And then they denied him food and water.
00:02:19.880 Remember when we said,
00:02:21.120 you can't do this to Terry Schiavo?
00:02:23.160 No, not giving water and food.
00:02:27.220 That's not life support.
00:02:31.480 That's basic humanity.
00:02:36.340 The doctors have done everything in their power
00:02:38.520 to make sure they have killed this baby.
00:02:40.740 The doctors.
00:02:42.720 Let's not just push it off onto the government.
00:02:48.060 The doctors are complying.
00:02:49.580 The doctors predicted Alfie would die within minutes
00:02:53.160 because, you know, doctors know best.
00:02:55.540 A half an hour went by.
00:02:56.860 Then a full hour.
00:02:57.760 Then another hour.
00:02:58.560 Then another.
00:02:59.120 Then another.
00:02:59.680 Then another.
00:03:00.240 Then another.
00:03:01.160 A miracle was happening.
00:03:03.680 Alfie Evans was breathing on his own.
00:03:06.740 He's fighting for his life.
00:03:09.320 His parents were ecstatic.
00:03:11.680 The doctors, quote, were God smacked.
00:03:15.680 I can't explain it.
00:03:17.080 We don't know what we're seeing.
00:03:19.580 But despite that,
00:03:22.520 it still took six whole hours
00:03:24.340 for Alfie's parents
00:03:25.540 to convince his doctors
00:03:27.260 to give him some water.
00:03:29.500 Six hours
00:03:31.400 of the parents begging the doctors
00:03:35.220 to give the baby a little relief
00:03:37.940 with a little bit of drinking water.
00:03:41.040 What are we turning into?
00:03:46.720 Alfie's parents were granted
00:03:48.260 an emergency hearing.
00:03:50.200 The situation had obviously changed.
00:03:54.020 The Italian government
00:03:55.480 has granted Alfie full citizenship.
00:03:58.960 The Italian government
00:03:59.840 has offered to take over
00:04:00.940 all medical care,
00:04:02.540 an air transport,
00:04:03.740 a helicopter,
00:04:05.420 is sitting at the hospital
00:04:07.380 waiting for the word
00:04:09.080 to fly him and his parents
00:04:10.740 to a Vatican hospital.
00:04:12.480 Everything is ready.
00:04:14.200 It all hinged
00:04:17.260 on an emergency hearing.
00:04:19.440 The decision came down yesterday.
00:04:22.360 The judge has doubled down
00:04:23.800 and denied Alfie's transport
00:04:25.680 to Italy.
00:04:27.420 Why?
00:04:27.860 What has this child done
00:04:33.680 that he is so dangerous
00:04:35.980 to the people of the UK?
00:04:40.080 You won't arrest terrorists,
00:04:43.480 but you will starve
00:04:47.200 a little boy to death.
00:04:48.760 Why?
00:04:51.980 It's not going to cost you anything.
00:04:55.240 Oh, but that's the point,
00:04:57.060 you see.
00:05:01.260 It costs the state something.
00:05:04.640 Oh, with a far higher price
00:05:07.160 than they're willing to pay.
00:05:08.160 This is state-mandated murder.
00:05:12.680 There's no other way
00:05:13.240 to describe it.
00:05:15.220 Alfie has already shown
00:05:16.400 that he doesn't need
00:05:18.100 the life support.
00:05:20.220 A miracle is possible.
00:05:21.940 His parents clearly
00:05:23.060 want their son to live.
00:05:25.140 They're now having to resort
00:05:26.300 to giving Alfie mouth-to-mouth
00:05:28.760 because the hospital
00:05:30.060 won't allow any oxygen
00:05:31.780 to be given to the kid.
00:05:34.620 This isn't a case
00:05:36.220 of a hospital bypassing
00:05:37.640 a parent's wishes
00:05:38.280 to do a medical procedure
00:05:39.480 that would ensure survival.
00:05:40.960 This is a case
00:05:42.020 of a hospital bypassing
00:05:43.620 a parent's wishes
00:05:44.420 to ensure death.
00:05:48.560 They are killing him
00:05:50.300 as much as
00:05:52.180 Hitler's T4 program.
00:05:58.680 If you don't want to be
00:05:59.800 responsible for Alfie's care,
00:06:01.400 that's fine.
00:06:03.260 But why legally block his care
00:06:05.400 from someplace else?
00:06:07.640 the answer
00:06:10.960 seems
00:06:12.820 all too obvious.
00:06:17.780 It's the same reason
00:06:18.980 the UK government
00:06:19.840 recently jailed a man
00:06:21.060 for flipping off
00:06:22.080 a traffic camera.
00:06:23.520 They put him in jail
00:06:25.300 because he flipped off
00:06:27.100 a traffic camera.
00:06:30.520 Now, why would they do that?
00:06:31.840 Because the all-powerful state
00:06:35.420 needs to show their people
00:06:37.080 that A, they can
00:06:38.500 and B,
00:06:40.640 I'll show you
00:06:41.920 who's in charge.
00:06:45.000 There's no reason
00:06:46.180 to deny a baby
00:06:47.080 it's God-given right
00:06:47.880 to live.
00:06:48.400 None.
00:06:49.540 All men are created equal
00:06:51.120 and endowed by their creator
00:06:53.060 certain inalienable,
00:06:55.120 unchangeable rights.
00:06:56.440 If this isn't a reason
00:06:58.640 why we broke away
00:07:00.020 from the United Kingdom,
00:07:01.440 I don't know what is.
00:07:03.620 Life!
00:07:05.120 Liberty!
00:07:06.140 And the pursuit
00:07:07.020 of happiness.
00:07:08.340 Life!
00:07:09.460 I have a right
00:07:10.940 to live!
00:07:12.220 And no king
00:07:13.560 can take that away.
00:07:15.160 It's my God-given right!
00:07:25.500 I wish we had
00:07:26.700 some moral authority
00:07:27.640 to talk about this,
00:07:29.900 but we as a nation
00:07:31.420 don't.
00:07:34.000 The UKIP party
00:07:35.340 made a statement,
00:07:36.880 summed it all
00:07:37.760 pretty perfectly.
00:07:40.120 They said this decision
00:07:41.480 was, quote,
00:07:42.140 a gateway
00:07:42.880 to totalitarianism.
00:07:45.160 Really?
00:07:48.040 You think?
00:07:53.260 I remember being mocked
00:07:55.240 when I was on Fox
00:07:56.840 and warning
00:07:57.980 about death panels.
00:07:59.700 Mocked.
00:08:00.780 Called crazy.
00:08:02.300 Called a conspiracy theorist.
00:08:05.100 Dragged through the mud.
00:08:08.540 Gateway to totalitarianism?
00:08:10.880 It is totalitarianism.
00:08:12.640 The minute,
00:08:14.000 the minute,
00:08:14.680 a state can make
00:08:16.140 the decision
00:08:17.000 for you
00:08:18.240 on whether you
00:08:19.560 or your children
00:08:20.440 live or die,
00:08:22.140 there is no
00:08:23.020 greater tyrant.
00:08:26.560 The adoption
00:08:27.780 of single-payer
00:08:28.660 health care
00:08:29.320 is the actual
00:08:31.220 gateway.
00:08:32.660 There is no
00:08:33.720 greater power.
00:08:35.600 This is just
00:08:36.760 an example
00:08:37.340 of what is possible
00:08:38.300 under that system.
00:08:39.260 A totalitarian government
00:08:40.800 is willing
00:08:41.380 to put you
00:08:42.600 in your place.
00:08:44.400 Sit down.
00:08:46.420 We control
00:08:47.320 who lives.
00:08:48.300 We control
00:08:48.980 who dies.
00:08:49.940 They have become
00:08:50.980 God.
00:08:53.340 They'll put you
00:08:54.280 in jail
00:08:54.740 for carrying
00:08:55.300 a screwdriver.
00:08:57.500 They'll fine
00:08:58.220 and jail you
00:08:58.960 for making
00:08:59.500 a Facebook post.
00:09:01.620 They'll brag
00:09:02.720 all about
00:09:03.280 catching
00:09:03.780 the guy
00:09:05.560 flipping off
00:09:06.440 a traffic
00:09:07.020 camera.
00:09:12.280 And the one
00:09:13.280 too horrible
00:09:13.860 that
00:09:14.160 nobody wants
00:09:17.340 to look at
00:09:17.940 is how they
00:09:20.340 are euthanizing
00:09:21.080 a helpless
00:09:21.520 child.
00:09:22.160 As of
00:09:27.060 this hour
00:09:27.980 little Alfie
00:09:29.800 is still
00:09:30.940 fighting
00:09:31.300 for his life.
00:09:33.820 The Pope
00:09:34.860 still has
00:09:36.080 the helicopter
00:09:36.900 waiting
00:09:37.980 at the hospital.
00:09:40.340 His parents
00:09:41.100 are praying
00:09:41.920 for a miracle.
00:09:46.820 He's denying
00:09:48.080 his government.
00:09:52.160 He's defying
00:09:53.800 the tyrants.
00:09:56.220 He's defying
00:09:57.740 all odds.
00:10:00.400 The foolish
00:10:01.860 are confusing
00:10:04.020 the elite
00:10:07.140 doctors.
00:10:11.900 No matter
00:10:12.920 what you're
00:10:13.220 doing right now,
00:10:14.360 stop
00:10:14.820 for just a second
00:10:15.960 and pray
00:10:18.040 for a miracle.
00:10:19.440 It's
00:10:28.260 Wednesday,
00:10:28.980 April 25th.
00:10:30.020 You're
00:10:30.560 listening to
00:10:30.980 the Glenn Beck
00:10:31.460 program.
00:10:36.900 The West
00:10:37.860 is dead.
00:10:39.380 The West
00:10:40.300 is dead
00:10:41.020 if we
00:10:41.660 don't
00:10:42.240 wake up
00:10:43.500 as Americans.
00:10:45.240 This is
00:10:45.700 why we
00:10:46.200 came here.
00:10:47.680 Life,
00:10:48.600 liberty,
00:10:48.860 and the
00:10:49.320 pursuit
00:10:49.620 of happiness.
00:10:50.200 This is
00:10:50.540 why we
00:10:51.100 came here.
00:10:51.900 We're
00:10:52.280 going down
00:10:53.040 the same
00:10:53.660 road.
00:10:54.680 And if
00:10:54.940 America
00:10:56.000 doesn't
00:10:56.800 wake up,
00:10:57.720 the West
00:10:58.560 and the
00:10:59.080 American
00:10:59.560 experiment
00:11:00.200 is over.
00:11:05.100 I don't
00:11:05.860 know what's
00:11:06.200 happening.
00:11:08.280 What's
00:11:08.880 happening to
00:11:09.480 our
00:11:09.720 cousins?
00:11:12.240 What's
00:11:12.840 happening to
00:11:13.580 the country
00:11:14.740 we are the
00:11:15.320 closest to?
00:11:16.660 we are
00:11:19.760 we are
00:11:20.620 literal
00:11:21.120 brothers and
00:11:22.060 sisters of
00:11:22.900 England.
00:11:23.800 That's where
00:11:24.820 we came.
00:11:26.840 We
00:11:26.980 broke away
00:11:31.020 because of
00:11:32.940 a tyrant.
00:11:36.200 They are
00:11:37.300 becoming
00:11:37.860 more tyrannical
00:11:39.640 by the day.
00:11:42.500 Guns weren't
00:11:43.420 good enough,
00:11:44.120 so now we're
00:11:44.840 banning knives.
00:11:46.200 There are
00:11:46.600 warnings.
00:11:47.220 If you want
00:11:48.500 to buy
00:11:48.880 silverware,
00:11:50.460 there are
00:11:51.300 warnings on
00:11:53.140 the silverware.
00:11:54.140 they're doing
00:12:00.140 random checks,
00:12:01.080 just stopping
00:12:01.760 people in
00:12:02.280 the street,
00:12:03.380 searching
00:12:03.720 them for
00:12:04.280 weapons.
00:12:05.320 Weapons that
00:12:06.320 include
00:12:06.720 screwdrivers.
00:12:10.840 We're not
00:12:11.580 even talking
00:12:12.200 box cutters.
00:12:13.440 Remember how
00:12:14.060 crazy box
00:12:15.500 cutters?
00:12:16.320 Box cutters
00:12:17.060 are everywhere.
00:12:17.820 Yes, but not
00:12:18.700 on an
00:12:19.340 airplane.
00:12:21.760 Then we got
00:12:22.600 down to the
00:12:23.120 nail file.
00:12:24.140 You can't
00:12:27.400 walk around
00:12:28.280 with anything
00:12:29.420 that could be
00:12:30.260 used as a
00:12:30.920 weapon.
00:12:32.400 I seem to
00:12:33.800 remember a
00:12:34.520 famous murder
00:12:35.540 using the
00:12:36.780 jaw of an
00:12:37.800 ass.
00:12:40.920 When you
00:12:41.860 can use the
00:12:42.700 jawbone of
00:12:43.780 a donkey to
00:12:44.900 kill someone,
00:12:46.240 I don't know,
00:12:47.040 pretty much
00:12:47.580 everything is a
00:12:48.920 weapon.
00:12:50.200 What is
00:12:51.260 happening?
00:12:51.900 America,
00:12:55.320 please do
00:12:56.320 not turn a
00:12:57.480 blind eye to
00:12:58.640 Alfie Evans.
00:13:00.900 Please.
00:13:02.460 Because it's
00:13:03.360 coming here.
00:13:05.980 This is what
00:13:07.320 death panels
00:13:08.220 do.
00:13:09.640 This is what
00:13:10.740 it looks like.
00:13:11.680 It's not some
00:13:12.680 conspiracy.
00:13:13.940 It's what it
00:13:14.980 looks like.
00:13:16.000 when the
00:13:18.000 government can
00:13:18.980 say, I'm
00:13:20.220 paying the
00:13:21.000 bill.
00:13:22.720 They make
00:13:23.840 the decision.
00:13:25.000 And it's all
00:13:25.680 fine and dandy
00:13:26.680 until it
00:13:27.540 happens to
00:13:28.320 you or
00:13:29.440 your children.
00:13:33.260 This is the
00:13:35.120 result of
00:13:35.980 universal
00:13:36.740 health care.
00:13:38.520 This is the
00:13:39.700 result of
00:13:40.700 universal basic
00:13:42.060 income.
00:13:42.600 this is the
00:13:44.100 result of
00:13:44.720 I'm going to
00:13:45.300 make sure
00:13:45.600 everyone has
00:13:46.560 a job.
00:13:49.320 I'm going to
00:13:50.220 make sure
00:13:50.540 everybody,
00:13:51.500 everyone has
00:13:52.980 health care.
00:13:54.760 When you do
00:13:56.100 that,
00:13:57.100 you then
00:14:00.620 have to
00:14:01.140 control the
00:14:01.900 population
00:14:02.500 that doesn't
00:14:04.120 want it,
00:14:05.060 that wants
00:14:05.940 out.
00:14:07.340 And the
00:14:07.920 only way to
00:14:08.860 do that
00:14:09.640 is to do
00:14:10.820 what Winston
00:14:11.400 Churchill called
00:14:12.460 an iron
00:14:14.600 curtain.
00:14:15.500 You have
00:14:16.420 to put an
00:14:17.300 iron curtain
00:14:18.240 up.
00:14:21.180 You know,
00:14:22.420 there are so
00:14:24.460 many people
00:14:24.860 that don't
00:14:25.320 want to
00:14:25.780 build a
00:14:26.360 wall around
00:14:27.480 America.
00:14:30.000 And you
00:14:30.720 know,
00:14:31.200 after seeing
00:14:31.860 what's happening
00:14:32.400 in the UK,
00:14:33.000 I may join
00:14:33.980 them.
00:14:35.120 I'm not
00:14:35.720 talking about
00:14:37.920 my fear
00:14:40.200 of bad
00:14:42.160 guys coming
00:14:42.920 in.
00:14:44.820 If we keep
00:14:45.800 headed down
00:14:46.260 this direction,
00:14:47.340 I fear that
00:14:48.520 good guys
00:14:49.200 may not be
00:14:50.120 able to
00:14:50.580 get out.
00:14:51.140 I want to
00:15:05.320 talk to you
00:15:05.580 about

00:15:22.920 new industry

00:15:56.500 could be more
00:15:57.320 consistent than

00:16:30.200 Glenn Beck,
00:16:32.260 Mercury.
00:16:40.040 Glenn Beck.
00:16:41.240 See, you
00:16:43.020 know, there's
00:16:43.380 a nice little
00:16:44.980 caveat that
00:16:46.940 maybe we should
00:16:47.380 put into the
00:16:47.900 Constitution.
00:16:49.100 Enjoyment of
00:16:49.740 the rights and
00:16:50.320 freedoms of
00:16:51.480 citizens must
00:16:52.420 not be a
00:16:52.960 detriment of the
00:16:53.860 interests of
00:16:54.880 the society or
00:16:55.800 the state.
00:16:58.100 You know, I
00:16:58.820 think that's a
00:16:59.360 pretty good idea.
00:17:00.560 For instance,
00:17:01.180 freedom of
00:17:01.560 expression can
00:17:03.660 be suspended if
00:17:04.760 the exercise of
00:17:05.620 that freedom
00:17:06.120 fails to be in
00:17:07.580 accord with
00:17:08.280 policies.
00:17:11.380 I think it's
00:17:11.980 good.
00:17:12.280 That sounds
00:17:12.560 pretty good.
00:17:12.920 I'm getting,
00:17:13.360 yeah, I'm getting
00:17:14.020 these from,
00:17:14.660 you know, I'm
00:17:15.280 getting these from
00:17:15.960 the Constitution
00:17:16.720 of the Soviet
00:17:17.540 Union, which,
00:17:19.360 you know, it's
00:17:19.680 no big deal.
00:17:21.140 Didn't we
00:17:21.600 already implement
00:17:22.140 that?
00:17:22.740 Isn't that where
00:17:23.840 we're headed?
00:17:24.640 It does.
00:17:25.320 I mean, it does
00:17:25.840 seem like that
00:17:26.260 path that we're
00:17:27.060 on.
00:17:27.760 You know, when
00:17:28.400 you look at
00:17:28.720 this, I mean,
00:17:29.180 again, this is
00:17:30.020 what's so jarring
00:17:30.840 about this story.
00:17:31.760 If we were doing
00:17:32.360 this story about
00:17:33.120 a kid in Iran or
00:17:34.620 North Korea or
00:17:35.660 outer Mongolia,
00:17:36.620 it would still
00:17:38.040 be tragic.
00:17:38.780 It would still
00:17:39.160 be horrible, but
00:17:40.160 at least it would
00:17:41.100 have some
00:17:41.680 sensibility in the
00:17:42.740 way we understand
00:17:43.460 the world.
00:17:44.020 These are our
00:17:44.520 closest allies.
00:17:45.880 These are people
00:17:46.280 that are supposed
00:17:46.640 to share our
00:17:47.340 sensibilities.
00:17:48.440 And this is the
00:17:48.860 second time they
00:17:49.640 just murdered a
00:17:50.640 baby for no
00:17:51.300 reason.
00:17:52.760 Well, but last
00:17:53.620 time he was in
00:17:54.600 a vegetative state.
00:17:56.160 This one is in
00:17:57.660 a semi-vegetative
00:17:59.540 state.
00:18:00.080 You're going the
00:18:00.540 wrong way on that
00:18:01.200 one.
00:18:01.880 Although I will be,
00:18:02.620 to be fair, Glenn,
00:18:03.380 we haven't even
00:18:03.840 addressed the
00:18:04.520 counter arguments
00:18:05.200 here.
00:18:05.480 I know I woke
00:18:07.260 up today and I
00:18:07.740 was like, well,
00:18:08.100 what about, where
00:18:09.440 are the people
00:18:09.800 talking about the
00:18:10.400 ethics, medical
00:18:11.400 ethics here?
00:18:12.480 Well, we now
00:18:13.140 have that.
00:18:14.220 Dominic Wilkinson,
00:18:15.200 professor of
00:18:15.880 medical ethics, was
00:18:16.740 commenting on this
00:18:18.000 case.
00:18:18.840 He said, I don't
00:18:19.520 know the
00:18:19.780 professionals at
00:18:21.280 this hospital
00:18:21.900 personally, the
00:18:22.760 professionals, but I
00:18:24.200 know from working
00:18:24.900 in intensive care and
00:18:26.160 my contact with
00:18:27.020 other professionals in
00:18:28.140 similar situations
00:18:29.080 that this will have
00:18:30.360 taken an enormous
00:18:31.500 personal toll on
00:18:32.940 these professionals.
00:18:33.780 professionals, they
00:18:35.440 Glenn, months ago
00:18:36.980 made a very
00:18:37.680 difficult decision.
00:18:38.980 The easiest path
00:18:40.480 would have been to
00:18:41.200 continue doing what
00:18:42.580 this child's parents
00:18:44.000 were requesting to
00:18:45.560 go along with
00:18:46.680 them.
00:18:47.140 But actually, they
00:18:48.920 couldn't in good
00:18:49.800 conscience do that.
00:18:52.040 Oh, this is
00:18:52.540 Kerbals, man.
00:18:53.460 The brave
00:18:53.880 Kerbals.
00:18:54.980 You know, this is
00:18:56.000 exactly what they
00:18:57.360 said with the T4
00:18:58.440 program in Germany.
00:18:59.600 And once you get
00:19:01.660 people to start
00:19:04.400 thinking this way, the
00:19:06.020 doctors led the way
00:19:08.260 in Germany.
00:19:08.880 It was the doctors
00:19:09.920 and the good nurses.
00:19:10.940 They led the way.
00:19:12.720 Once you take and
00:19:14.040 cross this line, it's
00:19:16.860 over.
00:19:17.800 It's over.
00:19:19.520 Asked whether doctors
00:19:20.780 had made the wrong
00:19:21.640 decision to withdraw
00:19:22.440 the child's life
00:19:23.060 support, this professor
00:19:24.480 of medical ethics
00:19:25.780 said, it's very
00:19:27.360 understandable why his
00:19:28.700 parents feel that way.
00:19:29.800 You think?
00:19:30.380 Yeah, it's very
00:19:32.880 understandable.
00:19:33.940 To put this in
00:19:34.440 context, when people
00:19:35.360 have life support,
00:19:36.680 it's supporting their
00:19:37.480 life, but it's not
00:19:38.620 living for them.
00:19:40.020 When doctors make the
00:19:40.940 very difficult decision,
00:19:42.320 you see who's always
00:19:43.160 the victim here?
00:19:44.120 The doctors, the
00:19:44.900 professionals.
00:19:45.840 When they make the
00:19:46.680 difficult decision to
00:19:47.720 take the machines
00:19:48.460 away because they
00:19:49.620 feel it's not helping
00:19:50.700 or doing more harm
00:19:52.020 than good, that
00:19:52.960 doesn't mean that
00:19:53.680 life ends.
00:19:54.820 Yeah, it kind of
00:19:55.400 does in this
00:19:55.940 particular case.
00:19:57.240 Yeah, it does.
00:19:57.900 But you notice,
00:19:58.380 they're not giving
00:19:59.120 him life support.
00:20:00.400 No.
00:20:00.660 This is something
00:20:01.240 that we, okay,
00:20:02.220 life support,
00:20:02.900 breathing machines.
00:20:03.760 Okay.
00:20:04.840 Food and water is
00:20:05.980 not life support.
00:20:07.800 And they're not
00:20:08.180 even, I mean,
00:20:08.760 they're asking for
00:20:09.700 just treatment to be
00:20:10.700 transported somewhere
00:20:11.520 else where they can
00:20:12.060 be treated.
00:20:13.060 It's not just about
00:20:13.700 breathing machines here.
00:20:14.880 It's incomprehensible.
00:20:15.640 Can't do it.
00:20:16.620 Can't do it.
00:20:17.540 The people versus
00:20:18.380 the state.
00:20:19.100 If the state decides
00:20:20.020 they're going to win,
00:20:20.920 they win.
00:20:24.620 Glenn, back.

00:20:52.100 This is for
00:20:53.540 anybody who is

00:21:00.660 years old.
00:21:02.100 What you're going to

00:21:05.560 historic documents
00:21:06.780 from our, we have
00:21:09.060 just an incredible
00:21:09.960 collection of
00:21:10.880 documents.
00:21:12.020 And you will be
00:21:13.380 getting hands-on
00:21:16.960 to these documents.
00:21:18.320 You're going to be
00:21:18.960 shown how to
00:21:19.900 research, how to
00:21:20.940 find the answers
00:21:22.060 using original
00:21:23.560 sources.
00:21:24.600 And you're going

00:21:26.020 incredible history
00:21:28.000 lessons from David

00:21:47.440 Uh, it's at
00:21:48.660 mercuryone.org
00:21:50.640 slash LTP.
00:21:52.760 Make sure that
00:21:53.840 you, uh, make
00:21:55.280 sure that you sign
00:21:55.980 up or, uh, tell
00:21:57.280 your kids, uh, so
00:21:58.840 they can sign up.
00:22:00.540 All right.
00:22:01.140 We're talking about
00:22:01.700 Alfie, Alfie Evans
00:22:02.880 in, uh, in
00:22:04.740 England.
00:22:05.160 We have Jim in
00:22:06.200 Georgia, who's a
00:22:07.880 vet.
00:22:08.220 Hello, Jim.
00:22:08.880 Joe, are you
00:22:12.740 there?
00:22:13.640 Yes, Glenn, I'm
00:22:14.480 here.
00:22:18.940 Hello?
00:22:19.940 Yeah, what, what's
00:22:20.880 happening, Jim?
00:22:22.440 I'm sorry.
00:22:23.720 That's okay.
00:22:24.240 You all right?
00:22:25.000 I'm a disabled vet.
00:22:25.960 Yeah, oh yeah.
00:22:26.660 I'm a disabled vet.
00:22:27.860 Um, you, you want to
00:22:28.720 talk about death
00:22:29.340 panels and, and the
00:22:30.480 way that the
00:22:30.960 government can take
00:22:33.300 control of your own
00:22:35.800 health care.
00:22:36.560 That's exactly what
00:22:37.500 the VA has done to
00:22:38.360 us vets.
00:22:39.160 Um, they've taken
00:22:42.160 across the board.
00:22:43.040 They've taken all the
00:22:43.720 vets off of the
00:22:45.020 opioids, even if it
00:22:46.680 hurts them.
00:22:47.100 I understand that, you
00:22:48.060 know, there's people
00:22:48.680 that have issues with
00:22:51.000 the, with the pain
00:22:51.680 meds, but I mean, I've
00:22:52.520 got a pain pump
00:22:53.260 installed into my
00:22:54.260 body.
00:22:54.520 I get a drop of
00:22:55.140 morphine every six
00:22:56.080 seconds.
00:22:56.540 They're taking that
00:22:57.160 away from me.
00:22:58.600 Um, what?
00:23:00.560 The, yeah, yeah.
00:23:02.380 I mean, that's just
00:23:03.100 normal.
00:23:03.480 They say it's CBT
00:23:04.540 therapy.
00:23:05.160 It's in our heads and
00:23:06.060 everything else.
00:23:06.840 They started this in the
00:23:08.340 Gulf.
00:23:08.620 Oh my God, man.
00:23:10.540 They started that and
00:23:11.640 they've been doing it to
00:23:12.380 Vietnam veterans for
00:23:13.280 years.
00:23:13.660 But when people want to
00:23:15.240 see a one payer system,
00:23:16.360 tell them to turn around,
00:23:17.500 look at the VA.
00:23:19.060 That's what we're going
00:23:19.960 to.
00:23:20.220 They tell us what we can
00:23:23.140 have, when we can have
00:23:24.180 it, even if it can help
00:23:25.340 us or if it'll hurt us.
00:23:27.720 The other day I was
00:23:28.740 trying to get some help
00:23:29.480 with sleep, the sleep
00:23:30.420 clinic.
00:23:32.040 They told me that sleep
00:23:33.300 is a want, not a need.
00:23:36.640 Wait a minute.
00:23:38.420 I don't think I've heard
00:23:38.920 that one before.
00:23:40.160 Yeah.
00:23:41.620 Sleep is a want, not a
00:23:42.820 need.
00:23:45.000 That's what I thought.
00:23:45.860 I know it's a need.
00:23:46.640 You can die from not
00:23:47.720 having enough sleep.
00:23:51.040 People just turn around.
00:23:52.900 Type in VA in Google.
00:23:55.320 Yeah.
00:23:56.940 And look what they're
00:23:58.000 doing to us.
00:23:59.380 Thank you so much.
00:24:01.540 And I'm hoping this
00:24:03.180 administration actually
00:24:04.340 appoints somebody this
00:24:05.840 time that will change
00:24:06.980 the VA.
00:24:07.640 Doc in Florida, quickly.
00:24:08.960 Hello.
00:24:09.160 Hey, I'm a high-end
00:24:11.820 specialist, routinely sees
00:24:13.100 euthanasia in our
00:24:14.120 hospital.
00:24:14.880 Attempts by pro-life
00:24:15.780 doctors to stand up to
00:24:17.020 it are met with
00:24:18.540 hostility, met with
00:24:20.580 basically administrations
00:24:22.320 running doctors out.
00:24:23.960 The families have
00:24:24.660 hardened their hearts as
00:24:25.780 well.
00:24:26.600 And attempts to simply
00:24:28.260 ask people like, let's
00:24:29.220 give your grandma a few
00:24:30.500 more days to see if they
00:24:31.400 wake up and we'll ask
00:24:32.300 them if they want the
00:24:32.940 breathing tube removed,
00:24:34.100 are met with hostility by
00:24:35.640 some family members, not
00:24:36.840 all.
00:24:37.120 And by administrators
00:24:39.660 literally stabbing you in
00:24:40.820 the back and trying to
00:24:41.640 end your careers.
00:24:44.380 You say this is routinely
00:24:45.900 happening.
00:24:47.680 Yes, this is routinely
00:24:48.760 happening.
00:24:49.380 Now, I see patients with
00:24:50.440 completely survivable brain
00:24:51.780 hemorrhages that years,
00:24:53.100 you know, a few years ago,
00:24:54.000 we would just routinely
00:24:55.300 take care of them and
00:24:56.920 they'd walk into my office
00:24:57.960 a few months later.
00:24:59.820 Now, within a day or two,
00:25:01.340 people who are completely
00:25:02.080 not qualified, not in the
00:25:03.480 proper specialty, come and
00:25:04.580 give an improper prognosis
00:25:06.220 hoping to save money for
00:25:07.620 the hospital under the
00:25:08.520 Obamacare regimen and
00:25:10.480 simply, you know, tell
00:25:13.980 the family it's time to
00:25:14.680 stop.
00:25:14.960 It's futile, which is
00:25:15.840 nonsense.
00:25:16.400 And any doctor who comes
00:25:17.420 in and attempts to get
00:25:18.700 off the script is literally
00:25:21.180 run in front of committees,
00:25:22.440 run out of the hospital,
00:25:23.620 their contracts are
00:25:24.420 entered, their careers are
00:25:25.320 destroyed, and I could
00:25:27.680 give you a lot of details
00:25:28.660 offline.
00:25:29.000 Which one are you?
00:25:32.320 I'm the pro-life doctor.
00:25:34.500 So have you had this, have
00:25:37.160 they tried to run you out
00:25:38.480 and destroy you?
00:25:40.680 They did it.
00:25:41.840 It's done.
00:25:42.360 It's over and there's a new
00:25:43.980 stage in my life because of
00:25:45.340 it.
00:25:46.160 But that's not something I
00:25:47.480 can discuss in detail at this
00:25:48.840 point online, in public.
00:25:51.340 Wow.
00:25:52.140 Hang on the phone.
00:25:52.980 I'd just like to have one of
00:25:54.620 our producers talk to you
00:25:55.540 offline.
00:25:56.780 Thank you.
00:25:57.400 That's an interesting part
00:25:58.620 he brings up, too, about how
00:26:00.060 the family's hearts have
00:26:01.580 hardened.
00:26:02.420 I told the story before, but
00:26:04.180 when my dad passed away,
00:26:06.880 the doctors were really good
00:26:08.940 and they did a great job.
00:26:10.540 And, you know, as it looked
00:26:11.540 like there was basically no
00:26:12.460 hope, they came in and were
00:26:15.060 talking to us about, you
00:26:16.280 know, what the next few days
00:26:17.200 were going to look like.
00:26:19.280 And they, I remember the
00:26:22.240 doctor bringing up the idea
00:26:24.740 that, you know, obviously this
00:26:25.680 could be the end.
00:26:26.360 And he brought it up in
00:26:28.460 almost an apologetic way
00:26:30.320 that we can't just, like,
00:26:32.100 unplug him.
00:26:33.220 Like, we can't just, like,
00:26:34.580 let it, we can't just, like,
00:26:36.580 give him medication to kill
00:26:38.260 him, basically.
00:26:39.120 Like, we can't just euthanize
00:26:40.520 him.
00:26:41.080 And that was my dad.
00:26:42.340 And he said it almost
00:26:42.920 apologetically.
00:26:43.820 Like, oh, I'm so sorry.
00:26:45.180 And I'm like, I thought to
00:26:46.080 myself, like, dude, you
00:26:47.580 understand that I want this
00:26:48.740 guy to live, right?
00:26:49.480 Like, that's the plan here.
00:26:51.420 My idea here is I want him
00:26:53.200 to live.
00:26:54.200 But I think, you know, and
00:26:55.500 he was bringing up the
00:26:56.880 correct option there, which
00:26:58.080 was to wait as long as
00:26:59.180 possible.
00:26:59.560 But it was in a way that he
00:27:01.320 almost had talked to so many
00:27:03.340 families that had decided
00:27:05.240 they wanted the opposite
00:27:06.340 that he had to come at it
00:27:08.900 from that perspective.
00:27:10.000 And that was shocking to me.
00:27:11.660 I mean, the last thing in the
00:27:12.840 world I expected to hear was
00:27:14.360 that.
00:27:15.700 We did that.
00:27:16.060 We did the same thing.
00:27:16.880 My dad was in the hospital.
00:27:18.700 Uh, he was not on a
00:27:20.540 breathing, uh, breathing
00:27:21.800 machine.
00:27:22.340 He was just, you know, he
00:27:23.820 was eating, but he was, uh,
00:27:26.000 he went into a coma and, uh,
00:27:29.000 the, the nurse or the doctor
00:27:30.860 made some mention of, you
00:27:33.220 know, we just can't push a
00:27:35.620 little more pain reliever in.
00:27:38.300 And I, and I just looked at
00:27:39.760 them and I said, yeah, we, we
00:27:42.780 know that.
00:27:43.520 And, uh, I said, do you, are
00:27:48.080 you recommending that?
00:27:49.620 And she said, no, just a lot
00:27:51.300 of families, you know, would
00:27:52.720 like to see this end.
00:27:54.120 And, and I said, we're not
00:27:55.680 one of those families.
00:27:56.680 We're not one of those
00:27:57.460 families.
00:27:58.320 Keep him comfortable, but
00:28:00.060 we're not pushing him out.
00:28:02.880 Yeah.
00:28:03.280 That's, that's scary that
00:28:04.380 that's common enough that they
00:28:05.740 need to approach it from that
00:28:07.160 side.
00:28:07.940 Yeah.
00:28:08.340 You know, they're seeing
00:28:09.180 that.
00:28:09.440 I mean, look, I understand
00:28:10.520 that's, that's an
00:28:11.140 incredible, impossible situation
00:28:12.820 for families.
00:28:13.620 And, you know, once you
00:28:15.060 lose hope, you, you, you
00:28:16.980 know, you can, it's an
00:28:17.840 understandable instinct, but
00:28:19.300 man, that's, you know,
00:28:21.020 that's not what we're
00:28:22.100 supposed to be doing.
00:28:22.720 I mean, again, the, the
00:28:23.800 oath is to, to do no harm.
00:28:26.160 I mean, I think about what
00:28:28.340 they're doing to this baby.
00:28:29.680 This is a totally different
00:28:30.880 situation.
00:28:31.540 This is, this is not, this
00:28:33.180 is not a vegetative state.
00:28:35.220 This, this baby is opening
00:28:36.980 its eyes, a semi vegetative
00:28:39.440 state.
00:28:39.720 So we've gone from
00:28:40.640 vegetable.
00:28:41.460 This is a vegetable.
00:28:42.820 To, well, they're partly
00:28:44.840 vegetable.
00:28:45.920 There's some meat and
00:28:46.660 potatoes there still, but
00:28:48.020 they're partly vegetable.
00:28:50.120 What, where is the line
00:28:52.160 here?
00:28:52.940 Where is the line?
00:28:54.100 We went from vegetable on a
00:28:56.320 breathing tube to now kind of
00:28:59.940 a vegetable, but still has some
00:29:01.920 waking periods during the day.
00:29:04.520 And no food and water, not a,
00:29:07.420 not a breathing tube, no food
00:29:09.260 or water.
00:29:09.800 We're going to starve them to
00:29:11.400 death.
00:29:12.020 You know what that leads to?
00:29:14.000 Starvation is a horrible way to
00:29:15.980 die.
00:29:17.380 There's a way that we can make
00:29:18.940 this more painless and easier.
00:29:23.100 That's, that's how they started
00:29:24.740 injecting, uh, uh, children in,
00:29:27.940 in, uh, Germany, but then that
00:29:30.120 became too expensive.
00:29:31.300 So they would just wheel all of
00:29:32.980 them into a room and gas them.
00:29:34.600 Remember the gas chambers started
00:29:38.120 at the hospitals.
00:29:40.000 It started with the doctors
00:29:42.200 finding better ways to kill
00:29:44.500 people faster.
00:29:47.060 It started with them wheeling
00:29:49.620 them into the back of trucks
00:29:51.200 because it was cheaper.
00:29:53.060 So they'd wheel them in the
00:29:54.320 trucks and they would put all
00:29:56.180 these people whose lives weren't
00:29:57.940 worth living.
00:29:58.980 They would just take a hose from
00:30:00.720 the exhaust and kill them.
00:30:02.740 But that seemed a little cruel.
00:30:06.140 So they built gas chambers in
00:30:08.900 the hospitals.
00:30:13.280 This is, this is the way it's
00:30:15.680 done, gang.
00:30:16.440 It's done with compassion.
00:30:18.540 They don't, it doesn't look like
00:30:20.080 an evil thing.
00:30:21.020 It always starts with compassion.
00:30:24.340 And what's happening is we're
00:30:25.520 training our doctors not to have
00:30:27.880 compassion.
00:30:29.400 We're treating, teaching our
00:30:31.080 hospitals and our nurses not to
00:30:33.120 have compassion.
00:30:34.700 They're on the front lines
00:30:35.980 fighting it every day.
00:30:37.300 But when you got a government and
00:30:39.320 healthcare that's saying, look,
00:30:40.680 get them off, get them off, get
00:30:42.100 them out of here.
00:30:44.560 Somebody's making the choice
00:30:46.060 and it's not you or your
00:30:48.140 family.
00:30:54.720 I want to thank LifeLock for
00:30:56.160 making the program possible
00:30:57.600 today.
00:30:58.080 According to an online security
00:30:59.420 education company, there is a
00:31:01.480 going rate for a internet user's
00:31:03.740 identity.
00:31:05.040 How much are you worth?
00:31:06.500 1200 bucks.
00:31:08.260 If I've got your identity, I'm, I
00:31:11.940 can sell it for $1,200 on the
00:31:14.340 dark web.
00:31:16.040 Now, what happens to it?
00:31:19.340 Well, I think the one who, you
00:31:21.800 know, just bought it for $1,200
00:31:25.260 wants to make at least a dollar
00:31:27.840 more than what he spent.
00:31:29.380 So what do they do?
00:31:30.900 They have to go and, uh, uh, and
00:31:33.980 get your credit cards, max out your
00:31:36.580 credit cards, see if they can get
00:31:38.280 into your, um, your retirement
00:31:40.700 funds, see if they can get into
00:31:41.940 your bank accounts.
00:31:43.000 Dark web is a system that is, is
00:31:45.960 linked to an online auction site
00:31:48.280 or could be to classified ads.
00:31:50.360 It's where criminals go to shop
00:31:52.360 for, you know, illegal products and
00:31:54.940 services, information like
00:31:57.260 identities.
00:31:59.040 One break in your identity and
00:32:01.560 criminals get in.
00:32:02.780 That's why the new LifeLock identity
00:32:04.780 theft protection adds the power of
00:32:06.620 Norton security to protect you
00:32:08.400 against the threats to your
00:32:09.460 identity and your devices that you
00:32:11.520 can't easily see or fix on your
00:32:13.400 own.
00:32:13.840 And if you have a problem, they
00:32:15.280 have the people that work to fix
00:32:16.800 it.
00:32:17.200 Now, nobody can stop all cyber
00:32:18.620 threats, prevent all identity
00:32:19.680 theft or monitor all transactions
00:32:21.000 and all businesses.
00:32:21.840 But the new LifeLock with Norton
00:32:23.660 security is able to uncover
00:32:25.100 threats that you might otherwise
00:32:26.320 miss.

00:32:54.600 Glenn Beck.
00:32:57.080 So, Stu, it's your child, Alfie
00:33:02.280 Evans, in the hospital, conscious,
00:33:07.040 off a breathing tube.
00:33:09.320 And the doctors are now saying you
00:33:11.220 can't feed or give him any water.
00:33:14.920 You've got citizenship in another
00:33:17.000 country.
00:33:17.540 The Pope has a helicopter waiting
00:33:19.340 outside and they won't let you touch
00:33:22.580 your child.
00:33:23.140 What do you do?
00:33:24.660 Honestly, at this point, after
00:33:27.860 exhausting all the options this
00:33:29.400 family has gone through, I honestly
00:33:32.560 think I stormed the castle gates.
00:33:34.800 With what?
00:33:35.860 You're not allowed to have a
00:33:37.040 kitchen knife.
00:33:38.280 Well, not with violence, but with
00:33:41.460 a thousand people, if I could find
00:33:43.740 them, supporters, and walking right
00:33:45.500 in there and taking that kid right
00:33:46.780 out and bringing him to the
00:33:47.680 freaking helicopter.
00:33:49.220 And I don't know that if this kid
00:33:51.560 dies, my kid dies in this situation,
00:33:54.060 and I'm not in jail, I would
00:33:58.080 consider it a personal failure.
00:34:01.640 I would have to do every single
00:34:04.560 thing within my power, including
00:34:07.000 breaking the terrible, terrible
00:34:10.080 construct of law that they have put
00:34:12.580 up there, including physically going
00:34:15.840 in there and removing that kid.
00:34:17.560 If you brought in with a thousand,
00:34:18.720 if you've got a thousand people
00:34:19.900 gathered outside that were all your
00:34:21.640 supporters and you all walked in
00:34:22.940 there at the same time, I mean, I
00:34:25.100 don't know what they would do.
00:34:25.960 They're going to mow you all down?
00:34:27.740 Maybe they would.
00:34:28.480 No, but you're not going to get
00:34:29.280 away because you can't take the
00:34:31.180 helicopter.
00:34:32.340 They would send military.
00:34:35.360 You're probably right.
00:34:36.240 They'd send military.
00:34:36.740 But you know what?
00:34:37.540 Against the helicopter.
00:34:37.940 You just, I mean, would...
00:34:39.700 At least you try.
00:34:41.160 You try.
00:34:41.820 And if you end up in jail and that's
00:34:43.660 your life and that's what you had to
00:34:45.280 stand for, you probably look at that
00:34:47.120 as a win in the end.
00:34:48.380 Yeah.
00:34:49.320 I think I come to the United States
00:34:52.300 as a dad.
00:34:53.680 I think mom stays with the child
00:34:55.980 and I fly to the United States
00:34:58.000 and I try to get on as many news
00:35:00.500 channels as I can possibly be on.
00:35:03.920 And I try to wake the American
00:35:06.100 people up.
00:35:07.300 I think that's what I do.
00:35:09.360 Because if America wakes up to it,
00:35:12.100 maybe, maybe.
00:35:14.140 Maybe you have a chance.
00:35:15.100 Maybe you have a chance.
00:35:16.260 But I don't know anymore.
00:35:18.240 We haven't heard from Trump on this,
00:35:19.720 have we?
00:35:19.960 I know because Trump did speak up
00:35:22.820 for Charlie Gard during that.
00:35:25.180 Who they killed.
00:35:25.880 Who they killed.
00:35:26.760 The last example of this,
00:35:28.240 the last time we've gone through
00:35:29.120 this story.
00:35:30.860 I wonder, I mean,
00:35:31.900 it would be helpful, I think,
00:35:34.420 if we could really turn up the
00:35:36.340 pressure from the United States.
00:35:38.200 I mean, again, they're a sovereign
00:35:39.440 nation.
00:35:40.620 We can't stop them from doing
00:35:42.320 anything.
00:35:42.800 But, you know, everything we can do.
00:35:44.820 I mean, look at what Italy's done.
00:35:46.240 You have to give Italy a ton of
00:35:47.420 credit here.
00:35:47.840 I mean, they've made Alfie Evans
00:35:49.640 a citizen.
00:35:51.040 They've done everything they could
00:35:52.700 to try to.
00:35:53.860 Is it possible?
00:35:54.260 If they're a citizen,
00:35:55.720 how is it possible they can't
00:35:57.200 take their own child out?
00:35:58.920 There's a spokesman from Italy
00:36:00.180 that said,
00:36:00.960 we consider this to be murder
00:36:02.960 of an Italian citizen.
00:36:05.180 I mean, that's pretty far.
00:36:08.200 So, you know,
00:36:09.100 they've done a lot.
00:36:10.160 But, I mean, we should be doing
00:36:11.200 more for these cases again.
00:36:13.020 You know, we should.
00:36:13.820 I think Trump does care about
00:36:15.840 this stuff a lot.
00:36:16.740 He does.
00:36:17.540 He does.
00:36:18.120 I think him making a statement
00:36:20.060 would be helpful.
00:36:21.200 I mean, I don't know that it would,
00:36:22.560 you know, turn this thing around.
00:36:24.540 I haven't seen anything from him
00:36:25.600 unless he's done it recently.
00:36:27.200 If you don't know what we're
00:36:28.260 talking about, Alfie Evans'
00:36:29.640 two-year-old kid who's in a
00:36:31.660 semi-vegetative state.
00:36:32.880 He's not even a vegetative state.
00:36:34.360 You know, see the pictures of him
00:36:35.600 and he's with his dad and his
00:36:36.560 eyes are open.
00:36:37.320 Uh, and he's, you know, at times
00:36:41.140 relating to the parents, uh, they've
00:36:44.680 just abused this child the hospital
00:36:46.680 has, um, uh, and, uh, you know, the,
00:36:50.780 the parents have come in and they
00:36:52.640 found mold on the ventilator, uh,
00:36:55.500 inside the tube.
00:36:56.820 I mean, they've just, it's horrible
00:36:59.800 what's happened.
00:37:00.580 Uh, and nobody knows, doctors don't
00:37:03.700 know what's wrong with him, but they
00:37:05.360 just don't want to look anymore.
00:37:06.600 It's too expensive.
00:37:07.860 And so they are killing him now, took
00:37:10.000 him off the ventilator and he's still
00:37:12.280 living, but they don't want to feed
00:37:14.880 him or give him any water.
00:37:16.760 This is immoral and wake your friends
00:37:21.180 and neighbors up about Alfie Evans and
00:37:24.640 pray for a miracle.
00:37:25.800 Cause it's going to take one, but
00:37:27.800 hopefully soon the world wakes up.
00:37:30.580 Glenn Beck, Mercury.
00:37:42.780 Love, courage, truth.
00:37:47.460 Glenn Beck.
00:37:49.700 So are you in the majority or the
00:37:51.920 minority?
00:37:52.360 Don't you feel like you're in the
00:37:53.120 minority?
00:37:55.260 I'm in Los Angeles this weekend.
00:37:57.920 Wow.
00:37:58.620 I feel like I'm in the minority.
00:38:01.280 Holy cow.
00:38:03.480 Am I the only one?
00:38:04.260 Not, not on the one-on-one just
00:38:06.360 screaming, why does everybody live
00:38:09.120 here?
00:38:10.640 I mean, I don't, I don't get it.
00:38:12.580 I really don't get it.
00:38:14.200 There are places where cars on the
00:38:17.740 freeways actually go fast.
00:38:21.620 It's crazy.
00:38:22.760 I know there's no stoplights.
00:38:24.780 I don't know why everybody has to stop on
00:38:28.060 the freeway here.
00:38:29.100 It's crazy.
00:38:31.240 Anyway, if you feel like you're in the
00:38:34.020 minority, stop feeling that way.
00:38:36.880 Because facts don't lie.
00:38:39.600 Polls and surveys, if conducted properly,
00:38:42.960 honestly, reveal the truth.
00:38:45.420 Obviously, researchers can manipulate the,
00:38:47.680 you know, quantitative methods used for many
00:38:49.800 studies, a practice that happens.
00:38:52.060 I'm told probably a little more often than we
00:38:55.860 realize, but for the most part, numbers don't
00:38:58.880 lie.
00:38:59.740 So let me give you this poll conducted by
00:39:01.520 Reuters.
00:39:02.060 The global market research and consulting firm
00:39:06.260 Ipsos has revealed that nearly 60% of the
00:39:12.040 1,516 adults interviewed between April 15th
00:39:15.500 and the 19th support the recent deployment of
00:39:20.200 the National Guard to the Mexican-U.S.
00:39:22.540 border.
00:39:24.840 60%.
00:39:25.600 Are you in the majority?
00:39:29.400 60% of Americans believe in the recent deployment of
00:39:33.840 the National Guard on the U.S.-Mexican border.
00:39:37.260 55% of U.S. adults consider the deployment of the
00:39:42.840 National Guard to the border as effective in the
00:39:45.160 short term, while less than half consider it
00:39:48.800 effective in the long term.
00:39:51.340 Now, if you've been listening to the mainstream
00:39:52.640 media, why, does something's not right?
00:39:56.520 I don't know.
00:39:57.820 Well, I just think I'm getting a case of the
00:40:00.120 vapors because something ain't right here.
00:40:04.480 Seems a little off kilter, doesn't it?
00:40:07.300 Because as the media portrays it, as Washington
00:40:10.260 portrays it, the only people who support having
00:40:12.520 the National Guard at the border are extremists.
00:40:15.320 Well, I just think that maybe good people, honest, good-hearted
00:40:25.380 Americans that just don't hate everybody are tired of being
00:40:31.140 labeled extremists.
00:40:33.360 Well, why don't you have some sweet tea?
00:40:35.080 Maybe in the recent narrative of multiculturalism at all costs, maybe
00:40:43.880 reason has gotten lost and multiculturalism is getting old.
00:40:50.660 Maybe the mainstream media has ignored honest Americans for too long.
00:40:55.000 It's a shame that it would take an English news agency to reveal such a glaring yet
00:41:00.860 subtle confirmation of leftist media bias.
00:41:04.860 But at this point, it's easier to find the few instances of factual, unbiased
00:41:09.720 reporting than it is to point out the glaring examples of the leftist media
00:41:15.160 framing, priming, and agenda setting.
00:41:17.860 But make no mistake, America, the message is clear.
00:41:23.260 You are not alone.
00:41:26.500 You, as an American, are not the only one screaming in your car.
00:41:41.220 It's Wednesday, April 25th.
00:41:43.900 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:41:47.860 Still, I have another one of these stories today that I think is best
00:41:54.260 understood if you're drunk.
00:41:56.300 Okay?
00:41:57.680 Because it'll just, it doesn't make any sense.
00:42:00.680 There are so many obvious things wrong with this that only a drunk person
00:42:05.900 could not be affected by it.
00:42:08.260 Only a drunk person would be like, that's okay.
00:42:10.440 I understand that.
00:42:11.460 Is it okay if I start drinking before these segments?
00:42:14.280 So it's not a fake.
00:42:14.880 I don't want to fake out the audience.
00:42:16.200 I don't want to do a bit.
00:42:16.980 I mean, I think we should do something authentic here if we're going to do
00:42:19.660 this.
00:42:20.080 And I think probably to hear these stories, I should probably at least have
00:42:23.280 some alcohol.
00:42:24.600 I think, I think only one of us should be able to operate every machinery.
00:42:32.320 Okay.
00:42:34.800 Bernie Sanders is starting early for the 2020 presidential election,
00:42:38.620 announcing Monday that he plans to unveil a whole new set of promises that he
00:42:44.000 can't keep, including a massive government expansion plan that includes a
00:42:48.080 guaranteed job for every single American.
00:42:50.620 Well, that's not what we all want.
00:42:55.200 Well, this is, what's the plan?
00:43:00.080 Sanders has an outline that calls for government to fund hundreds of projects in
00:43:05.920 categories, such as infrastructure.
00:43:07.640 I don't know what it is.
00:43:10.700 It has been infrastructure week every week for quite some time.
00:43:14.540 I think we need that.
00:43:16.580 Roads and bridges are crumbling everywhere.
00:43:19.600 Education and the environment.
00:43:22.360 I love trees.
00:43:23.720 Americans who want to do the hard work of building roads and bridges,
00:43:28.380 educating children and cleaning up embankments on major highways would either
00:43:32.320 receive a job with one of these projects, full health care and benefits and a $15
00:43:36.780 minimum wage, or receive job training.
00:43:41.520 What kind of training?
00:43:43.400 What's job training?
00:43:46.420 Now, here's the part of the plan that I think the people who put the plan together were probably
00:43:55.560 sitting in Bernie Sanders' office going, that is a fantastic idea.
00:44:00.580 You know what you should do?
00:44:02.760 We should, and I'm quoting, we should divide the country into 12 separate districts.
00:44:13.700 So we have, like, District 1 and District 12, and we have all these districts, and they
00:44:22.660 can all specialize in certain things.
00:44:24.860 So, like, one district maybe just makes pants, and another one just, like, they do something
00:44:32.480 else, like, grow flowers.
00:44:35.480 Would you envision some sort of maybe contest revolving?
00:44:39.860 Well, I would think that, yeah, weirdly, nobody noticed that the 12 districts is exactly the
00:44:50.200 plan from the Hunger Games.
00:44:52.760 Hey, anybody else notice that?
00:44:55.500 Bernie, hello.
00:44:58.940 He's so cool, he's so hip.
00:44:59.540 That's not really part of the plan, right?
00:45:01.600 There's not really a 12 districts in it.
00:45:03.940 Yes.
00:45:04.080 No.
00:45:04.840 Yes, there is.
00:45:06.300 Yes, there is.
00:45:07.440 12 districts.
00:45:08.220 Now, here's the thing.
00:45:09.380 It's not because of the Hunger Games, although I wouldn't count that out.
00:45:13.500 That is a job, right?
00:45:14.740 I mean, competing in the Hunger Games is a gig.
00:45:17.740 There are two people who are hungry, and there's stuff to do, and we can all dress up, and
00:45:23.600 oh, I can wear a dress on fire.
00:45:25.840 Here is probably where he got the idea, and you tell me which is better, the 12 districts
00:45:37.300 from the 12 districts, you know, in the Hunger Games, or the 12 districts that you can find
00:45:44.440 in the former Soviet Union?
00:45:47.420 Oh, and the districts that Mao made in China.
00:45:55.460 There's no way this 12 districts thing is part of this Bernie Sanders plan, is it?
00:45:59.680 It is.
00:46:00.580 You're making this up.
00:46:01.320 Look it up.
00:46:02.020 I am not making it up.
00:46:03.760 I think you're making it up.
00:46:04.920 I am not making it up.
00:46:07.900 You're drunk.
00:46:08.760 That's the problem.
00:46:09.500 I just come in here.
00:46:10.600 I told you this makes more sense if you're drunk, right?
00:46:14.900 Go ahead.
00:46:15.440 You're looking at it.
00:46:16.160 You're looking at it.
00:46:16.780 You're reading it.
00:46:17.400 Keep reading.
00:46:17.940 Keep reading.
00:46:18.480 Keep reading.
00:46:21.120 There's 12 districts.
00:46:22.360 I mean, it really...
00:46:24.400 I told you that's a brilliant idea.
00:46:27.120 It really does seem, according to the Washington Post...
00:46:33.020 I just can't trust them.
00:46:36.480 I mean, you can...
00:46:37.120 I don't know.
00:46:37.960 Wait, that can't be...
00:46:38.960 I don't know.
00:46:40.020 Wait a minute.
00:46:40.480 Hang on just a second.
00:46:42.260 Okay, so yeah, one district makes pants.
00:46:45.440 Maybe another district digs coal.
00:46:49.200 And then every year we have like some sort of intradistic...
00:46:54.400 Intradistic...
00:46:55.280 Intrad...
00:46:56.000 District...
00:46:57.960 Right.
00:46:58.700 We have games with all of them.
00:47:01.080 Oh, you're...
00:47:01.740 This is...
00:47:02.260 You're totally lying here.
00:47:03.800 Okay, here it is.
00:47:04.840 Under the early draft of Sanders Job Guarantee, local, state, and American Indian tribe governments
00:47:09.220 in every section of the country would send proposals for public works projects to their
00:47:12.880 areas to 12...
00:47:14.260 To get sent representatives.
00:47:15.380 Right.
00:47:15.880 We can send representatives to the capital city.
00:47:19.460 Every year a representative from each district goes to the capital city.
00:47:23.560 But what I'm saying is you keep saying this 12 districts thing.
00:47:25.920 This says 12 regional offices.
00:47:28.340 That's totally different than a district.
00:47:30.340 This is a regional office.
00:47:34.180 Right.
00:47:34.700 Sure.
00:47:35.240 It's a regional office.
00:47:36.580 There's just 12 regions.
00:47:38.640 District would be crazy.
00:47:40.780 That is the only nuance here.
00:47:43.700 It's basically the Hunger Games, except they're calling them regional offices instead of districts.
00:47:47.940 Right.
00:47:48.280 And you know what?
00:47:48.920 They called them in China and in Russia, they called them districts.
00:47:52.040 But they had 12 regional offices.
00:47:54.880 And those regional offices controlled each region.
00:47:59.220 That's insanity.
00:48:01.220 Insanity.
00:48:02.000 And like why, if you had one of these jobs, let's say you had a job.
00:48:06.200 Yeah.
00:48:06.680 You currently worked at a...
00:48:08.260 I'm making pants.
00:48:09.720 Okay, you're making pants at a real company, not a fake government company.
00:48:13.580 I'm in District 3 making pants.
00:48:15.780 Now, let's say you're at a real company.
00:48:17.240 Let's say you're working at, you know, whoever...
00:48:20.040 Pants company.
00:48:21.020 My pants company is real pants.
00:48:22.880 Not government pants.
00:48:24.100 I'm talking about actual pants.
00:48:25.860 I don't know what government...
00:48:26.340 I don't know what the difference is a government pants and a real pants are.
00:48:28.860 So you're making 30K and you're making...
00:48:32.180 You're at a plant and you're making pants.
00:48:34.280 And then the government...
00:48:35.840 I've never made as much as $3,000 a year before.
00:48:39.280 I believe that from you.
00:48:40.640 I...
00:48:41.320 You seem to be hammered.
00:48:42.540 But this is a good example.
00:48:43.360 I'm glad you're a drunk employee right now.
00:48:45.580 Because let's say you're a drunk employee, right?
00:48:47.660 Can't lose my job.
00:48:48.680 You're currently holding on.
00:48:50.100 I put the...
00:48:50.760 Jesus.
00:48:51.740 I put...
00:48:52.660 Yesterday, I put the...
00:48:53.700 I put the...
00:48:55.940 I put the zipper on the leg.
00:48:59.420 But that's okay.
00:49:00.620 It's for...
00:49:01.460 I better not say that.
00:49:04.820 What it's good for.
00:49:06.500 But it's...
00:49:07.260 You put the zipper...
00:49:08.240 I didn't put the zipper in the right place.
00:49:11.240 The zipper sometimes doesn't make it to the right place.
00:49:14.640 We all know that.
00:49:15.720 Okay?
00:49:15.940 So you're making pants and you're a bad employee.
00:49:20.040 Let's say you show up to work drunk often, but you're holding it together and you're keeping
00:49:25.100 your job.
00:49:26.200 Why would you...
00:49:27.000 At the government factory where your job is guaranteed, why the hell would you show up
00:49:34.260 and keep it together?
00:49:35.480 Why wouldn't you show up or not show up every day drunk?
00:49:39.280 Why wouldn't you switch from the real pants factory to the government pants factory where
00:49:45.880 everything's guaranteed?
00:49:47.460 It would incentivize you to do less.
00:49:49.980 And this is why these things fall apart.
00:49:51.540 If you would shut up for a second, I could tell you why.
00:49:54.280 Was I talking too much?
00:49:55.480 Yes, you were talking too much.
00:49:57.180 Sometimes when you drink, you start to talk.
00:50:01.340 Okay, so here's why.
00:50:03.720 The constitutional rights from the former Soviet Union, civil and political rights, you have
00:50:10.400 freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom of assembly, freedom of religion, unless they
00:50:15.960 are not the prescribed.
00:50:17.800 If they are in conflict with the political beliefs, then you lose your right.
00:50:25.360 But here it is the role of the citizen.
00:50:30.900 It is parasitism.
00:50:33.220 If you are...
00:50:34.640 You're a parasite.
00:50:36.020 If you just go to work and you...
00:50:38.800 And I swear to you, that zipper was...
00:50:46.360 It's not where I put that.
00:50:48.600 Then you have a violation of duty and it is a betrayal of the motherland and the gravest
00:50:56.020 of crimes.
00:50:57.500 Right.
00:50:57.700 So you're going to...
00:50:59.540 Well, you don't need to shoot me in the head.
00:51:02.460 Right.
00:51:03.460 That's how this has to end, right?
00:51:05.420 I mean, this is ask Ukrainian potato farmers how this ends.
00:51:08.800 Yes.
00:51:09.240 This is exactly how this has to end because human nature will make people fall to their
00:51:15.860 lowest level when they're not going to be inspired by what they do, when there's no
00:51:20.400 hope, when the economy's been destroyed because of these things.
00:51:24.400 And the only way to go to make people work in these contexts, as we've seen through human
00:51:29.200 history, is force.
00:51:31.040 And once you start getting to that point, we're in a totally different world.
00:51:34.500 Well, they're admitting this would completely remake the American experiment.
00:51:40.780 Yes.
00:51:41.440 Why not?
00:51:42.400 Hope and change.
00:51:44.620 I want to fundamentally transform the United States of America.
00:51:47.980 Congratulations.
00:51:49.180 We're here.
00:51:50.000 That's when I push.
00:51:53.680 I push a button and it doesn't...
00:51:55.480 I swear to you, I push that button and the music didn't start.
00:51:58.900 Well, Sarah's running the board.
00:51:59.760 She's drunk too.
00:52:00.560 That's the problem.
00:52:02.220 I love it, Sarah.
00:52:03.280 I want to talk to you about Blinds.com.

00:52:26.440 Tanya and I, we needed to update.
00:52:28.640 We had these, well, I like to call them Donald Trump curtains.
00:52:32.840 I felt like I was living in Donald Trump's house.
00:52:35.580 We bought the house and they put these curtains up and we just, we left them up for a while.
00:52:39.700 But every time I walk into the bedroom, I was like, whoa, Donald Trump lives here.
00:52:44.040 And so we had to get, we had to get rid of them.
00:52:46.800 And we went to Blinds.com.

00:53:52.600 Glenn Beck, Mercury.
00:54:04.760 Glenn Beck.
00:54:07.820 From our studios in Sherman Oaks, California.
00:54:12.680 We're glad that you're tuned in today.
00:54:15.340 I, uh, I don't know how I, I don't know how I should feel, um, because I was, I was, uh,
00:54:22.340 driving around yesterday.
00:54:23.500 I grew up on the West Coast and, uh, but I grew up before the West Coast went nuts.
00:54:29.620 But, uh, you know, I saw something from my childhood that I haven't seen and I called my
00:54:35.320 wife and I'm like, honey, I, I have got to go and, and have Shakey's pizza.
00:54:41.360 And she's like, pardon me?
00:54:43.180 And I'm like, oh no, it's Shakey's pizza.
00:54:45.480 I grew up and it was like every kid, one of their birthday at Shakey's pizza.
00:54:49.860 And it was, and she said, is it good?
00:54:51.960 And I said, no, I remember it a little like a paper towel and ketchup.
00:54:56.400 And then they just cook it.
00:55:00.300 That's it.
00:55:00.940 We serve fun at Shakey's, we've got singing and clapping.
00:55:04.800 We serve fun at Shakey's, also pizza.
00:55:08.560 Yeah.
00:55:09.280 So they serve fun at Shakey's, also pizza.
00:55:13.520 Okay.
00:55:14.080 So it's a pizza parlor that doesn't put pizza first.
00:55:18.300 And they have a piano playing, piano player, player, piano.
00:55:23.940 Okay.
00:55:24.460 It was a big deal when I was a kid and Rob, who's traveling with us, he's our, I don't
00:55:32.960 even know what he is.
00:55:33.860 He's the president of, of all things technical.
00:55:37.300 And that's the, that's the official title, Mr. President.
00:55:41.700 Uh, and, uh, we drove by and, and he remembered Shakey's pizza and he's like, oh my gosh, now
00:55:48.600 we're taking everybody to Shakey's pizza tonight.
00:55:51.400 You're going to miss out, but I'm not sure.
00:55:53.740 I know how I feel now.
00:55:55.020 I'm very excited.
00:55:56.040 I'm not sure how I'm going to feel after I've eaten something from Shakey's pizza.
00:56:01.660 So you're saying you're not fully confident in the quality of the actual pizza.
00:56:06.360 It's kind of like, for me, it's kind of like if you had grown up around McDonald's and then
00:56:12.680 you hadn't seen one in 40 years, you'd be like, McDonald's, McDonald's is my kind of
00:56:18.920 place.
00:56:19.600 Hap, hap, happy place.
00:56:20.620 But everybody who's still been around McDonald's, like, it's not a happy place, man.
00:56:24.780 It's not a happy place.
00:56:26.180 It's a happy place for me.
00:56:27.060 I don't know what you're talking about.
00:56:29.820 But Shakey's pizza in 1968 had 342 locations.
00:56:35.040 I think this is going to surprise you.
00:56:36.360 Chain currently has 500 stores.
00:56:39.620 Shut up.
00:56:40.120 It's actually grown.
00:56:41.540 It's the worst pizza in the world.
00:56:43.260 At least it was in 1976.
00:56:45.920 They may have updated the recipe potentially.
00:56:48.960 Maybe.
00:56:49.580 I don't know.
00:56:50.360 But that was part of its charm.
00:56:53.860 Part of its charm was, oh, it's like pizza on a paper towel.
00:57:00.500 You know, ketchup on a paper towel.
00:57:02.020 I hate to say it's pizza on a paper towel.
00:57:04.340 It's more like ketchup on a paper towel.
00:57:06.820 With some cheese and an olive.
00:57:11.540 I shouldn't.
00:57:12.960 I have two small kids, five and six.
00:57:16.520 So I've spent several birthday parties at Chuck E. Cheese, which I do not.
00:57:23.180 No.
00:57:23.720 Do not compare to Chuck E. Cheese.
00:57:24.280 I mean, obviously, Chuck E. Cheese is better because it's got video games.
00:57:26.800 But still, and it's got a dancing rat, which is fantastic.
00:57:30.820 Shakey's pizza.
00:57:32.480 It has a piano player.
00:57:34.420 Right, but it's a rat playing it.
00:57:38.280 No.
00:57:39.720 I don't.
00:57:40.700 No, I'm sorry.
00:57:42.880 That should tell you something.
00:57:44.740 If a rat is the representation.
00:57:48.160 That's what they make.
00:57:49.280 These giant inflatable rats in New York.
00:57:51.200 They put them in front of restaurants so you don't go in.
00:57:55.480 America.
00:57:56.640 You've got to start questioning yourself.
00:57:58.520 Mercury.
00:58:05.880 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:58:07.580 Well, I got to tell you, I'm in love with the story of Shakey's Pizza.
00:58:14.760 Now, I've done a little research because they've got two, count them, two big locations here in Los Angeles.
00:58:21.400 I drove by a Shakey's Pizza here in L.A. just the other day, and I was like, oh, my gosh, I haven't seen one of those since I was a kid.
00:58:30.020 I must go.
00:58:32.140 So I'm taking everybody to Shakey's Pizza today.
00:58:35.020 Yeah.
00:58:35.460 No, that's the kind of guy I am.
00:58:37.600 And I'm going to feel really bad.
00:58:39.740 If it's good pizza, I'm going to feel really bad tomorrow for saying all this.
00:58:45.200 Now, if it's the pizza that I remember, I'm also going to feel really bad tomorrow, but for an entirely different reason.
00:58:53.880 Okay, so listen to this.
00:58:55.200 I'm seeing, by the way, they have an authentic Texas barbecue chicken pizza, which I'm sure it will bring you back to the memories of your home here in Texas.
00:59:04.300 I'm sure it's incredibly authentic.
00:59:05.880 Oh, I bet it is.
00:59:07.340 Okay, so listen to this.
00:59:08.920 Shakey's Pizza was founded in Sacramento, California.
00:59:12.120 Nothing good comes out of Sacramento, California.
00:59:15.480 Nothing.
00:59:15.840 It was founded by Sherwood Shakey Johnson.
00:59:23.160 Johnson's nickname, Shakey, resulted from nerve damage following a bout of malaria.
00:59:28.980 So already this is good.
00:59:34.940 Hey, I had just a touch of malaria, and I'm just a little shaky, but I found that now I can evenly put the cheese all over the pizza.
00:59:48.220 Is he drunk, too?
00:59:50.540 Why is he?
00:59:51.440 Why is the guy with malaria drunk, too?
00:59:55.000 Well, here's why.
00:59:56.740 Because the parlor opened on a weekend.
00:59:59.440 Shakey's Pizza Parlor opened on a weekend.
01:00:01.720 But the pizza ovens were not yet complete.
01:00:06.140 Now, think of this.
01:00:08.700 You're a pizza parlor, and your ovens don't work yet.
01:00:15.020 Perhaps you don't open in that circumstance.
01:00:17.620 Do you open or not?
01:00:19.240 The answer to Shakey was, all right, we open.
01:00:23.220 All they served, the only thing they served was beer.
01:00:29.740 So bring your kids down to Shakey's Pizza Parlor, because we got beer.
01:00:34.680 That's a wonderful addition to any children's pizza parlor is beer on the menu.
01:00:40.320 Oh, it is.
01:00:41.120 No, they serve that at Chuck E. Cheese.
01:00:43.980 They serve that at Chuck E. Cheese.
01:00:45.100 They do.
01:00:45.440 I was surprised, because, you know, with the new kids that we've known there for a couple
01:00:49.020 of years now, and it's great.
01:00:51.780 Chuck E. Cheese is great, because, number one, they serve beer, which I did not expect
01:00:55.060 when I first walked in there.
01:00:56.100 I did not remember that as a child.
01:00:57.520 I don't know if they've always done it.
01:00:59.200 I won't go until they start serving hard liquor.
01:01:02.380 Yeah.
01:01:03.840 Advisable.
01:01:05.400 And maybe handguns.
01:01:08.120 It's hard liquor and handgun night at Chuck E. Cheese.
01:01:11.320 Does Shakey's, though, have the wonderful parts of it that are like a prison?
01:01:17.840 Because what I like about Chuck E. Cheese, I'm a big fan of this as a dad, is when you
01:01:22.420 come in, they give you, like, a stamp number on your hand, and they will not let a child
01:01:28.160 leave without the same, with a parent with the same number.
01:01:31.740 So, like, it's almost impossible for anything bad to happen inside of a Chuck E. Cheese,
01:01:38.200 because they can't leave.
01:01:39.540 So, you can go in there, and you can get, like, five pitchers of beer and pass out in
01:01:42.760 the booth, and as long as you've got enough tokens, likely your kid will still be around
01:01:47.360 when you wake up.
01:01:48.720 It's an interesting business philosophy.
01:01:50.380 Hang on, is that supposed to be a selling point, or something that tells me to stay away?
01:01:56.020 I guess it depends on your kids.
01:01:57.600 Damn it, my kids are still here.
01:01:59.620 You couldn't have found somebody better, there's good, I don't want you walking away with a
01:02:06.260 bad guy, but you could have done some work and found a good family to go to.
01:02:10.860 Your dad is passed out in the corner.
01:02:14.340 Whatever parent gives you the most tokens, go home with it.
01:02:17.660 Right.
01:02:18.040 That's what you do.
01:02:19.240 I do have to tell you this, you know, that's a kind of a weird selling point.
01:02:24.860 Hey, we're going to make sure that that child predator doesn't leave the restaurant with
01:02:30.700 your kid.
01:02:32.740 Come with your kids, leave with your kids.
01:02:35.640 I mean, that's kind of basic social contract stuff, you know what I mean?
01:02:41.420 You know, you don't go into a McDonald's and they're like, hey, because we have problems
01:02:46.800 with child predators here, we're going to stamp everybody's hand.
01:02:50.480 No, you don't even think of that at any other restaurant, you know, maybe Shakey should
01:02:55.120 think about, we don't need to stamp your hand.
01:02:57.560 We don't, we don't have the child predators hanging around.
01:03:00.000 I don't know.
01:03:00.440 I mean, if you've watched enough 11 o'clock news, you think your kids are going to disappear
01:03:05.440 no matter where you go.
01:03:07.040 At any time, there is always, there's about 75% of our society is built of child predators
01:03:13.000 looking to steal your children.
01:03:14.240 Uh, so you, when you go into a place that they can't escape, like it's some sort of
01:03:19.400 prison camp, it's a good thing.
01:03:22.020 You feel very, you feel very, you're, you feel a little bit more stable as a parent while
01:03:27.620 you're downing the second pitcher.
01:03:29.460 Yeah.
01:03:30.200 Mm-hmm.
01:03:30.840 Um, by the way, uh, if you're, I think you have to, when you have one of these places have
01:03:35.420 the, the mascot, right?
01:03:37.440 You have to have the mascot, like Chuck E. Cheese has Chuck E. Cheese, E being his middle
01:03:43.100 initial.
01:03:44.040 Um, but they actually, people think, oh, they have the mouse there.
01:03:46.820 It's actually a rat.
01:03:48.640 The Chuck E. Cheese is, Chuck E. Cheese is actually a rat.
01:03:51.800 They bought the costume and I think they thought it was a mouse and then realized afterwards
01:03:56.160 that in the original Chuck E. Cheese that it was a rat.
01:03:59.300 But it's a great idea for a restaurant because you're getting out in front of it.
01:04:02.420 If you have terrible, uh, sanitary habits and there's rats running around your restaurants,
01:04:07.060 the people are going to think those are just mascots.
01:04:09.240 Oh, look at that little mascot.
01:04:10.660 Look at that.
01:04:11.220 That's great.
01:04:11.940 He's got out ahead of the problem.
01:04:12.900 And you know, it's not as cute, it's not as cute when you break it down.
01:04:16.380 Last name Cheese, middle name E could be Eaten.
01:04:21.060 Or E. Coli.
01:04:22.540 Yeah.
01:04:23.360 Eaten Cheese, all right?
01:04:24.920 Okay.
01:04:25.680 The rat, his name isn't Chucky, it's Chuck.
01:04:29.740 Mm-hmm.
01:04:30.080 That's a big ass rat.
01:04:31.800 If you've got a bunch of rats and you're like, and that one's Chuck.
01:04:35.260 That's a big rat, man.
01:04:38.260 That's a gigantic rat.
01:04:39.200 That's a big rat.
01:04:49.100 Hang on just a second.
01:04:50.300 Stop the music, Sarah.
01:04:51.200 Stop the music.
01:04:51.900 We have Ron in New York who used to work at Shakey's Pizza.
01:04:55.960 Oh, God.
01:04:56.260 I didn't even know they still existed.
01:04:58.160 Hello, Ron.
01:04:59.960 How are you doing?
01:05:00.700 Good morning.
01:05:01.820 Good morning.
01:05:02.500 How are you?
01:05:03.100 Still, the malaria has gone away, but it's still great.
01:05:09.820 Do they still have the banjos at Shakey's Pizza?
01:05:14.440 The Shakey's Pizza, which was located in North Syracuse, New York, actually went out of business
01:05:20.500 in around 1974.
01:05:23.200 Not due to the pizza.
01:05:24.980 The pizza was great.
01:05:26.340 Was it?
01:05:27.000 The shakey would be on that, but basically they tried to expand their menu into barbecued
01:05:34.140 chicken and other things like that, and dollar-wise, it didn't work out for them, so they had
01:05:40.880 to close down.
01:05:43.040 Well, now they have...
01:05:44.600 Go ahead.
01:05:45.900 No, the Shakey's here was really kind of a great thing because it was mostly the people
01:05:54.560 that went there were college students, you know, Syracuse University, LeMoyne, Donatoga
01:06:00.620 Community College, and we had the player piano, we had the old-time movies on there, and we
01:06:08.560 also had a live, two guys that came in, and one played the piano himself, and another one
01:06:16.740 played a banjo, and they did sing-alongs.
01:06:19.260 I remember this being a really fun place, but I was like six at the time, but I remember
01:06:27.380 it being, and it's strange because I also remember the pizza from a six-year-old point
01:06:35.820 of you being good, and then maybe again when I was 12, thinking, wow, it's not so good,
01:06:43.680 but I'm anxious to...
01:06:45.260 I'm going tonight because it's such a childhood memory.
01:06:47.540 I'm going tonight.
01:06:48.280 I'll let you know.
01:06:49.780 But they have, what is it, 500 and some locations?
01:06:54.940 600, but it's global, Stu.
01:06:57.940 They have 60 in America.
01:07:00.380 It's global.
01:07:00.920 I always thought they were ahead of their time back in the 70s because they made people
01:07:05.820 pizzas, they made the Hawaiian pizzas, they made shrimp pizza, you name it, they would
01:07:11.500 put it on the pizza.
01:07:12.880 They had a German dark beer.
01:07:14.520 They started selling that there, and it was really a fun place to work, a fun place to
01:07:21.300 eat, and the pizzas really were not that bad.
01:07:23.740 Now, maybe they went downhill when you got a little bit older, but I know when I was there...
01:07:27.680 Yeah, maybe.
01:07:28.240 I don't want to judge.
01:07:29.960 There are two open right where I'm staying, and I'm going tonight, so there.
01:07:35.920 Thank you very much, Ron.
01:07:37.220 I appreciate it.
01:07:38.560 I am a lucky guy, because it's Shakey's Pizza, and I haven't been there since I was six,
01:07:48.420 and I think I threw up.
01:07:52.900 But that's...
01:07:53.780 That is not the...
01:07:55.760 That's not the song?
01:07:56.900 That's not the way...
01:07:57.400 Not the exact song.
01:07:58.680 It's close.
01:07:59.300 It's not the exact...
01:08:00.000 They may not let me in now.
01:08:01.540 I actually am very excited.
01:08:03.100 And I don't know if I'll be disappointed if the pizza's good.
01:08:12.380 I'm interested.
01:08:17.240 That is a very weird thing to prioritize the fun over the pizza.
01:08:21.460 That you're telling people that the pizza's not good when you say, we serve fun and also
01:08:26.340 pizza.
01:08:26.960 That is not the way to structure that sentence.
01:08:31.120 Well, I like it.
01:08:32.000 I like it.
01:08:32.540 They better be throwing the pizza dough up when I get there.
01:08:35.260 I'm just saying.
01:08:36.580 All right.
01:08:37.020 Zip Recruiter.
01:08:38.040 If you're hiring, you need...
01:08:40.440 You know, you need the...
01:08:42.460 No, this is...
01:08:43.440 Sorry.
01:08:44.240 It's CarShield.
01:08:45.240 So it's not this one.
01:08:46.700 But they're good, too.
01:08:47.880 But let me tell you about CarShield.
01:08:49.720 Wow.
01:08:50.100 You're good at this.
01:08:51.060 I am the Shakey's Pizza of radio.
01:08:54.720 Welcome.
01:08:56.320 If you've ever taken your car in for an oil change and a mechanic finds something wrong,
01:09:01.040 surprise, you're hit with a repair bill that you didn't expect.
01:09:05.060 It's what happened to all of us.
01:09:07.300 It happened to me just recently.
01:09:08.880 I took one of my trucks in off the farm and it was a $5,000 bill.
01:09:14.740 The truck is worth, like, $12,000.
01:09:18.020 I don't know what I would have done.
01:09:20.620 I just said to the mechanic, I've got CarShield.
01:09:25.140 Oh, okay.
01:09:26.520 Yeah.
01:09:27.080 I walked out with a $5,000 repair bill for free, taken care of, because I have CarShield.
01:09:36.280 If your car breaks down after the manufacturer warranty expires, you could be out of pocket
01:09:41.480 for thousands.
01:09:42.980 Replacing your engine can cost thousands.
01:09:45.080 A simple repair can cost a thousand bucks.
01:09:48.300 There's nothing simple anymore.
01:09:50.480 Five grand?
01:09:51.520 And I think for my first car, I think I paid $1,500.
01:09:56.500 Oh, my gosh.
01:09:57.880 I'm turning into one of those old...
01:09:59.640 Get off my lawn, you damn kids.
01:10:02.360 You just did a half hour about Shakey's Pizza.
01:10:04.600 Of course you're that guy.
01:10:05.840 Oh, my gosh.
01:10:06.780 I'm sorry.
01:10:08.260 I apologize.
01:10:09.620 Anyway, CarShield makes the process of fixing your car for a covered repair super easy.
01:10:14.480 You can have your favorite mechanic to it, or you can have the dealership do the work.
01:10:18.020 They also provide 24-7 roadside assistance and a rental car while yours is being fixed
01:10:22.240 for free.
01:10:23.480 So if your car has 5,000 to 150,000 miles, it doesn't mean you have to pay high repair
01:10:27.320 bills.
01:10:27.780 CarShield administrators have already paid out close to $2 billion in claims, and they're
01:10:32.100 ready to help you.
01:10:33.120 So save yourself thousands in future car repairs.
01:10:35.640 Get it covered by the ultimate in extended vehicle protection like I did.

01:11:06.220 So I don't know if you've heard the news, but Grover Norquist has lost his re-election
01:11:11.460 bid at the NRA.
01:11:14.900 Now, I'm just trying to...
01:11:16.120 What?
01:11:16.360 This year?
01:11:17.720 This year.
01:11:18.580 This year.
01:11:19.460 Because he...
01:11:19.800 Well, it makes perfect sense, Stu.
01:11:21.540 Okay.
01:11:21.900 It does.
01:11:22.320 How?
01:11:22.860 Okay.
01:11:23.360 Well, because it was...
01:11:24.380 What was it?
01:11:24.700 Last year or two years ago, when he was up for re-election, we said, don't elect Grover
01:11:30.140 Norquist.
01:11:30.620 Really bad guy.
01:11:31.520 Right?
01:11:31.840 Yeah.
01:11:32.140 You made a big deal about it.
01:11:33.320 Yeah.
01:11:33.640 Yeah.
01:11:33.840 There was a big campaign.
01:11:35.340 You know, it was a big deal.
01:11:36.580 They were recalling him, if I'm not mistaken.
01:11:38.620 They tried to recall him.
01:11:39.660 Uh, and, uh, and he just squeaked by and was on the board.
01:11:44.960 So now his election happens.
01:11:47.480 I didn't say vote for the other guy.
01:11:50.700 And so now Grover Norquist loses.
01:11:55.140 How does...
01:11:56.020 How is it?
01:11:56.660 Well, because...
01:11:57.440 Think of this.
01:11:57.980 Think of this.
01:11:58.380 Mm-hmm.
01:11:59.580 I was, uh, for...
01:12:03.700 Uh, not for George Bush to be the nominee.
01:12:07.580 Either George Bush's.
01:12:08.720 They both won.
01:12:10.200 Uh, I was, uh, uh, uh, uh, I was for, slightly, John McCain.
01:12:21.180 You know, anybody against Obama.
01:12:23.060 Mm-hmm.
01:12:23.640 He didn't win.
01:12:24.920 Uh, I was for Mitt Romney.
01:12:26.600 Anybody against Mitt Romney.
01:12:27.920 I was for everyone else but Mitt Romney in the run-up.
01:12:32.120 Yep.
01:12:32.340 And then they all kept losing.
01:12:35.040 And then Mitt Romney, and so I was like, okay, all right, I'm for him.
01:12:38.260 He loses.
01:12:39.080 Yeah.
01:12:39.700 I am for Ted Cruz.
01:12:41.860 I campaign for Ted Cruz.
01:12:43.820 He goes down in epic flames.
01:12:46.840 Okay?
01:12:48.420 People...
01:12:49.220 This is not true, but people say that I was for Hillary Clinton.
01:12:53.400 Well, what happened?
01:12:54.420 She lost!
01:12:56.400 Maybe there's some method to this madness.
01:12:58.700 Maybe I should just, whoever I don't want to win, I should campaign for.
01:13:04.500 This is interesting because so many people have spent so much time trying to convince
01:13:08.260 you to vote for their guy.
01:13:10.500 Maybe what you want to do is convince you to vote for the other guy.
01:13:12.700 I'm going to start, I am going to start selling my endorsement to people you don't want to
01:13:21.240 win.
01:13:21.500 So in other words, I'll take the highest bid.
01:13:23.720 I won't take money from Hillary Clinton, but I would have taken it from Donald Trump
01:13:27.320 to endorse Hillary Clinton.
01:13:29.500 Sure.
01:13:31.060 Sure.
01:13:31.500 If that means she loses, yeah, okay, I'll do it.
01:13:34.120 Yeah, I'll take that money.
01:13:35.140 So you're like, you're now outwardly advertising yourself as the kiss of death.
01:13:40.760 Yeah, I like to refer to myself...
01:13:42.940 You've heard of angel investors?
01:13:44.460 Yeah.
01:13:44.960 I'm kind of like, I'm looking for angel of death investors.
01:13:48.520 So I'm like, if you want to invest in the angel of death, I'm here for you.
01:13:53.520 My political kiss destroys a career.
01:13:57.780 This is a great new business line to go into.
01:14:00.240 I think it is.
01:14:00.840 I think it is.
01:14:01.580 I don't know if it's entirely legal, but we just won't talk about it.
01:14:04.460 We'll just joke about it like we're thinking about doing it, and then we'll throw everybody
01:14:09.220 off the track.
01:14:10.520 We used to say this about when the Devil Rays, the Tampa Bay Devil Rays were the Tampa Bay
01:14:14.580 Devil Rays, and they were really bad, and they had Tropicana Field, and we used to joke
01:14:18.920 that it was actually Minute Maid who bought the rights and then just named it Tropicana Field.
01:14:23.000 That's right.
01:14:25.260 That's what you should do.
01:14:26.180 This is great.
01:14:27.120 I know.
01:14:27.540 I know.
01:14:28.080 I know.
01:14:28.920 I know.
01:14:29.480 I know.
01:14:29.520 I don't know.
01:14:31.180 I think this is a legitimate new business line for you.
01:14:34.540 The anti-endorsement.
01:14:37.260 You just come in.
01:14:38.020 This portion of the program brought to you by MSNBC and George Soros.
01:14:42.880 I love those guys.
01:14:46.740 MSNBC is off the air.
01:14:49.000 Woodrow Wilson was the greatest president of all time.
01:14:52.940 You just get you to endorse cancer now.
01:14:56.780 Everything will be great.
01:15:00.320 Glenn Beck.
01:15:02.280 Mercury.
01:15:07.600 Love.
01:15:08.780 Courage.
01:15:10.520 Truth.
01:15:12.280 Glenn Beck.
01:15:13.640 You know, sometimes I just kind of feel like Gandhi should have said, you know what, you
01:15:19.680 can all go to hell.
01:15:21.100 But maybe that's just me.
01:15:23.300 I am.
01:15:24.200 I can't take it.
01:15:25.700 I can't take.
01:15:27.700 Well, let me let me start at the beginning.
01:15:29.360 Breaking news from the Associated Press.
01:15:31.120 The news organization that has garnered 52 Pulitzer Prizes.
01:15:36.140 America's primary source for news.
01:15:39.280 The news platform that nearly all other news networks get their news reporting and information
01:15:44.740 from.
01:15:45.740 Important breaking news.
01:15:48.500 Headline.
01:15:49.020 First Lady Melania Trump greets the Macrons with a hat.
01:15:55.400 The first line.
01:15:57.020 Melania, or more specifically, Melania's hat.
01:16:01.080 What were you saying?
01:16:03.180 What the hell are you talking about?
01:16:05.720 What?
01:16:06.580 The article goes on to mock the First Lady for her appearance.
01:16:11.820 For her appearance.
01:16:14.360 I thought we weren't supposed to bully.
01:16:16.060 I thought we weren't supposed to notice.
01:16:17.500 I thought we weren't supposed to notice beauty, and we certainly weren't supposed to notice
01:16:21.740 ugliness.
01:16:23.880 Now, think of this.
01:16:25.560 They're mocking a legal immigrant, a woman, who came here and achieved the American dream
01:16:34.380 without Donald Trump.
01:16:37.800 If you look at the byline, it doesn't credit any writer.
01:16:41.900 Now, you could say it's because everybody was like, I didn't put my name on that piece
01:16:45.120 of crap.
01:16:45.560 But that's not what happened.
01:16:46.500 It credits the story to the Associated Press.
01:16:50.740 So the editors at the Associated Press had a little powwow, no offense, you know, meant
01:16:56.460 to Elizabeth Warren.
01:16:57.620 But they all agreed, yeah, yeah, this is great journalism.
01:17:01.560 You know what?
01:17:02.700 Screw Bob and Susan.
01:17:04.480 Screw them.
01:17:05.260 Let's credit this to the entire news organization.
01:17:08.380 Now, here's why I say Gandhi should have once in a while said, you know what?
01:17:13.060 Go to hell.
01:17:15.820 During the Obama administration, do you remember how the media pranced around every chance to
01:17:23.960 celebrate Michelle Obama's beauty?
01:17:26.360 She was a beauty of the ages.
01:17:28.500 She was a beauty of the ages.
01:17:30.020 Look at her arms.
01:17:31.600 Look at her abs.
01:17:32.880 My gosh.
01:17:34.080 She's the most beautiful thing ever.
01:17:37.320 She could wear a sack.
01:17:40.140 She could wear Kleenex boxes for shoes.
01:17:44.300 And she just did.
01:17:45.900 She makes them hers.
01:17:48.800 The Hill ranked her number nine on their list of the 50 most beautiful people of 2015.
01:17:55.120 People magazine did the same thing.
01:17:57.820 Come on.
01:17:58.760 The media adored her every step like a newlywed couple watching their child's first step.
01:18:07.140 She could do no wrong.
01:18:09.300 Strong woman, exemplifying power, beauty, feminine grace.
01:18:14.400 They belotted Michelle Obama every turn of the way.
01:18:16.980 Worshipful, proud, exuberant in their praise.
01:18:21.400 And we could not disagree.
01:18:25.760 You know what?
01:18:26.760 I mean, you can look at her abs, but she's walking away.
01:18:30.260 There's a caboose happening there.
01:18:31.840 Oh, my.
01:18:32.680 Oh, my gosh.
01:18:33.840 Oh, my gosh.
01:18:34.780 You didn't just say that, did you?
01:18:38.740 Meanwhile, Melania Trump, literally a model, literally a super model,
01:18:47.600 has been ignored at best and scowled by the media.
01:18:53.680 This is the latest example of the mainstream media's hatred for President Trump.
01:18:59.480 Look, you don't like his policies.
01:19:01.100 You don't like him.
01:19:01.760 That's fine.
01:19:03.280 What the hell?
01:19:04.280 What are you doing?
01:19:07.440 Leftists and their parrot-like media hate him.
01:19:10.060 They're frothing at the mouth, waiting for him to fail, doing everything they can to make it happen.
01:19:15.940 But say what you want about the man, but delusional hostility is far more frightening than anything else.
01:19:28.540 I mean, look, anyone with eyes.
01:19:31.740 Michelle Obama was a pretty woman.
01:19:34.020 She was pretty.
01:19:34.740 She wasn't the most beautiful person in the world.
01:19:38.440 She didn't have, my wife has arms better than hers.
01:19:43.040 That doesn't mean that Michelle Obama's are bad.
01:19:45.520 Doesn't mean I don't like her.
01:19:46.700 But do you have eyes, man?
01:19:49.440 If you think that she was one of the most beautiful women in the world, good for you.
01:19:53.540 But I don't think you actually did.
01:19:56.160 Oh, she is just the most beautiful, striking woman.
01:19:59.180 No, no.
01:20:00.060 No, she was a pretty woman.
01:20:04.880 Nothing wrong with that.
01:20:06.140 Not everybody is a supermodel.
01:20:07.860 But when you have a supermodel to then come out and like, look at her.
01:20:13.160 What a dog face.
01:20:15.080 What the hell?
01:20:16.140 What is going on?
01:20:20.060 We need to find a middle ground.
01:20:22.620 We have to find we have to find common sense and reasons reason.
01:20:27.340 We must fix reason firmly in her seat.
01:20:30.060 Can we stop lying to, not each other, to ourselves?
01:20:38.600 We all know that Melania Trump, if she were out there, you know, touting abortion, she'd be the most beautiful, elegant woman.
01:20:51.140 She is the most beautiful woman since Jackie Kennedy.
01:20:55.300 And that's true.
01:20:56.700 But they're not saying that.
01:21:02.560 We need to find we need to find those people on both sides that will just admit reality and just stop hating and doing everything you can.
01:21:14.480 And I have to tell you, we have to find these people before before the other people, mainly the media, sink the boat entirely.
01:21:24.340 It's Wednesday, April 25th.
01:21:32.820 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:21:34.440 Hour number one, we did a full hour on what's happening to our friends in England.
01:21:41.240 It's not good.
01:21:42.900 You know, we were mocked for saying that death panels are a result of universal health care.
01:21:47.920 Well, that's what's happening.
01:21:49.380 There is this two-year-old boy named Alfie Evans.
01:21:51.920 They don't even know what's wrong with him.
01:21:53.680 He's got some brain disorder.
01:21:56.240 He went in.
01:21:57.180 He became unresponsive.
01:21:58.620 He is not in a vegetative state.
01:22:02.160 He's in a semi-vegetative state.
01:22:04.680 He is looking at his dad and his mom.
01:22:07.580 They don't know what's wrong with him.
01:22:09.820 He has become an Italian citizen.
01:22:12.060 The family has become an Italian citizen.
01:22:15.220 Italy is opening up their hospitals.
01:22:17.480 The Pope has a helicopter at the airport ready to whisk him to Italy, and the Government Institute
01:22:25.780 of Health has decided he doesn't have any reason to live.
01:22:28.600 So they unplugged him from the ventilator, expected him to die right away.
01:22:32.400 He didn't.
01:22:33.460 He's now breathing on his own.
01:22:35.700 It took six hours of the parents begging, please let us give him a drink of water.
01:22:42.560 This is state-sanctioned murder.
01:22:45.060 And I don't know what can be done at this point, but Will Maul from Faithwire has been
01:22:52.000 following this story and can give us the latest.
01:22:55.180 Hi, Will.
01:22:55.560 How are you?
01:22:56.720 Hi, Glenn.
01:22:57.460 How are you doing?
01:22:58.980 I'm, I, you know, I've been better.
01:23:01.140 I don't know what's happening in the UK.
01:23:03.100 I don't know what, I don't know what the UK is turning into.
01:23:06.600 Yeah, it's pretty disturbing, right?
01:23:09.780 It's, they're actually in court right now.
01:23:11.940 So they're in the Court of Appeals in the UK, and the hearing's going on right now to
01:23:16.460 see whether anything can be done.
01:23:18.420 They're still arguing that Alfie can be transported to Italy.
01:23:22.560 Like you said, they've got guys on standby to take them there, but it's not looking good
01:23:28.720 at the moment.
01:23:29.300 There's still a way to go in the hearing.
01:23:31.560 Will, are you in the UK now, or are you here in the United States?
01:23:34.900 Yes, I am.
01:23:35.660 I'm actually in Northern Ireland.
01:23:37.600 I'm over in Northern Ireland.
01:23:39.100 But yeah, they're just across the water there in Liverpool.
01:23:41.680 So it's, it's close to home.
01:23:43.820 And it's really, really, really disturbing in many ways.
01:23:48.040 I think probably...
01:23:49.040 So, Will, are you, are the people over there, are they, are they as upset about this?
01:23:56.120 Or is this just starting to become normal that the government's just killing kids?
01:24:00.260 It's definitely not becoming normal.
01:24:03.520 I think it is, it's a unique situation.
01:24:06.020 We saw a similar thing with Charlie Gard a while back.
01:24:09.440 But it's, the silence from, I would say, from a lot of politicians and a lot of faith leaders
01:24:15.280 over here is pretty deafening.
01:24:18.120 There's not much outrage at all from many leading figures.
01:24:21.920 I think I've seen one member of the European Parliament take a real stand against it and team
01:24:26.640 up with the family.
01:24:27.340 But it's, it's quite confusing why there isn't more of an outrage when you actually look at
01:24:33.440 the case and what's happening.
01:24:35.380 So they, they have, I don't know if you've seen these pictures.
01:24:39.600 I have not gotten permission from the family to release them.
01:24:42.860 And I, I wish, I wish they would.
01:24:45.820 But I have pictures of, of the care that he was receiving, if I can even call it that.
01:24:52.980 They have not cared for this child at all.
01:24:55.680 I have a picture of his breathing tube in him and it is covered in mold in the inside.
01:25:02.560 I have a picture of him in his bed where he is, he is wet all the way up almost to his
01:25:08.680 armpits.
01:25:10.220 His bed is all wet.
01:25:11.680 Nobody changed him.
01:25:12.820 I have pictures of the, the crust of, of snot all around his tubes where they hadn't changed it.
01:25:23.300 I mean, this is despicable what's going on.
01:25:28.280 Yeah, absolutely.
01:25:29.520 I haven't personally, I haven't seen those pictures yet, but it's, it is, it is concerning.
01:25:34.740 And just looking at the courts, uh, they've very much been focused on the best interest
01:25:39.360 for Alfie.
01:25:40.000 That's a, that's a phrase they use a lot, um, in the family law here.
01:25:43.860 They say, oh, we, we want to see, um, everything done in the welfare of, of little Alfie and
01:25:48.680 in his best interest.
01:25:49.660 But they've said that it's in his best interest not to be transferred to Italy, which you can
01:25:54.400 kind of understand because he's obviously a fragile patient.
01:25:57.600 And if they're worried, he's going to die in transit, then that's like, you know, that's
01:26:01.340 a fair enough concern.
01:26:02.240 But then they've also said it's in his best interest that he not be, that treatment not
01:26:07.640 continue for him at Alder Hay Hospital.
01:26:09.740 So they conclude that they're saying that his best, the best interest in the case of this
01:26:13.720 child is that he would, he would die.
01:26:16.500 Um, and that's extremely disturbing and I can't see why, uh, more people aren't outraged
01:26:21.920 by that.
01:26:23.100 What, what is it going to take to, I mean, we, here in America, when we started to
01:26:27.580 going down the road of universal health, I said, look, let's just look at this logically
01:26:31.940 when there's not enough money, somebody has to make the choice of who lives and who dies.
01:26:38.400 And the government is going to have a death panel of sorts where they will decide what
01:26:44.840 the limit is.
01:26:45.820 Well, everybody said that was a horrible conspiracy and I was a bad man for even saying it, but
01:26:50.960 that's what's happening.
01:26:52.620 How many of these have to happen before people start to realize over in England, wait a minute,
01:26:57.580 I'm in control of my own life and I'm in control of my children's lives.
01:27:03.260 Yeah, absolutely.
01:27:04.940 Absolutely.
01:27:05.520 And why, and why hasn't there been a deference to the parents?
01:27:08.580 Um, it's the judge effectively is saying to them, we know the best interest for your
01:27:12.840 child in conjunction with the medical advice.
01:27:15.720 Uh, there's no space for the parent to actually say, well, no, you don't, you know, this is a
01:27:19.620 grave situation, but we should be given the final, uh, the final say on what happens
01:27:24.300 to our child.
01:27:25.720 Um, uh, and even, I mean, I think that the courts really are doubling down on their, on
01:27:32.700 their ruling.
01:27:33.320 They're trying to set a legal precedent and they've refused to engage with, um, any public
01:27:38.120 scrutiny over, you know, their assertions on the sanctity of life, because it's really
01:27:42.160 coming down to that.
01:27:43.220 Do they see this life as worth living anymore?
01:27:46.600 And, and clearly, um, you know, you could, you could argue they don't.
01:27:50.080 So it's, it's highly, highly concerning for the future, I'd say.
01:27:54.280 So what are they saying now?
01:27:55.900 Because they expected him to die as soon as they took him off the ventilator and he, he
01:28:00.100 isn't dying.
01:28:01.660 Uh, is, is anybody saying, oh, wait a minute, maybe we should reevaluate.
01:28:07.260 Uh, I mean, is this, is this meant anything to anyone?
01:28:11.480 From what I've seen, the barrister from, from the hospital is, is sort of, um, backtracking
01:28:17.660 and saying that now, uh, on Monday before they took the ventilation off Alfie, he actually,
01:28:22.980 there was a team of medics who explained, uh, that actually he could be alive for seconds,
01:28:28.200 for minutes, uh, for hours, or indeed for days.
01:28:31.240 So, um, that's the argument that they're saying is that was clearly explained to the parents,
01:28:36.100 um, and that he actually, he was, there's, there was always a chance that he might, um,
01:28:41.220 be able to breathe on his own for a period of time.
01:28:43.280 And of course, then came the, the situation in which his parents, as you said earlier,
01:28:48.460 were, were desperate to get in some food, uh, and some oxygen and some water, which he
01:28:53.420 needs just to survive, uh, by himself.
01:28:56.000 So, uh, that's, uh, yeah, it's, it's, it's a difficult one, but, um, but you know, Alfie's
01:29:03.300 father today, he said, he said doctors only just started feeding him at one o'clock yesterday.
01:29:07.400 Uh, but his mic support was switched up at 9 p.m. the previous evening.
01:29:12.200 So that's, I mean, that it's, in many ways you could say that's starvation, you know,
01:29:16.440 it's forced to, uh, it is, it absolutely is.
01:29:19.980 How are the parents, have you interacted with the parents at all?
01:29:24.100 I haven't, I haven't managed to get hold of the parents.
01:29:26.620 Uh, obviously it's an incredibly, um, it's just, uh, it's mayhem really outside the hospital,
01:29:31.920 but, um, we have spoken to the Christian Legal Center, who are the, the guys who are
01:29:37.340 representing them.
01:29:38.840 Um, I spoke to one of the, the, the representatives there just before the Supreme Court ruling,
01:29:43.460 and they were quite hopeful, um, that actually Alfie, in their, in their view, is being held
01:29:48.680 against his will.
01:29:49.500 It was basically an illegal imprisonment.
01:29:52.260 Um, and then of course the, the Supreme Court ruling was that, um, the side, they sided
01:29:58.880 with, with the hospital, with the doctors, and they said, actually, this, this, uh, this
01:30:03.500 is where it ends.
01:30:04.140 At that point, they'd said, actually, this is, it's not lawful to, you know, it's, it's
01:30:09.800 lawful to detain him.
01:30:10.960 It's lawful to treat him up until the end of his life.
01:30:13.860 Um, but, uh, I mean, the guy we spoke to, Roger Kiska, at the Christian Legal Center, I
01:30:19.400 noted, um, yesterday, he said, um, you know, we, we think it's, it sets a dangerous precedent
01:30:25.320 when the state determines whether the quality of someone's life is good enough for them
01:30:28.800 to live or not.
01:30:30.000 Um, that should be a determination made by the parents, and I think that's what really
01:30:34.120 they're, they're trying to argue now in this hearing today is, is, you know, at least, at
01:30:39.500 the very least, we should be able to transfer him home and be with him in his last, in his
01:30:44.280 last days.
01:30:45.600 Um, it doesn't look good at the moment.
01:30:47.600 It looks like that, that may not even happen.
01:30:49.440 So, yeah, there's, I'd say it's still a long way to go, but it's been an arduous process
01:30:54.460 for the parents, for sure.
01:30:55.660 So, Will Maul from Faithwire, thank you for your reporting, thanks for being on the program,
01:31:00.720 and, and, and thank you to everybody at Faithwire.
01:31:03.840 I know a lot of the guys there, and you guys are, are on it, and if the people of faith
01:31:09.160 don't wake up and start stepping to the plate, we're all lost.
01:31:13.720 Will, thank you so much.
01:31:15.000 God bless.
01:31:15.480 Thanks, Glenn.
01:31:16.040 Thank you.
01:31:16.620 Bye-bye.
01:31:16.860 Liberty Safe
01:31:25.560 Boy, sometimes don't you just want to, just lock your kids away from what's outside, what
01:31:35.560 they have to, all the crazy stuff that's going on.
01:31:39.100 Um, obviously you can't do that, but Liberty Safe can, uh, take everything that is of value
01:31:44.460 to you, besides what is of true value, your, your family, and they can make sure that nobody
01:31:50.540 gets to it.
01:31:51.360 Liberty Safe, um, just the best built safes in America.
01:31:55.220 I have, uh, for the museum, we have five of them.
01:31:58.720 Uh, and I mean, we keep, we keep all of Thomas Jefferson letters.
01:32:05.360 We, we have the letter from Thomas Paine.
01:32:07.860 I've got to bring it in and read it to you.
01:32:09.480 I have the letter from Thomas Paine to Ben Franklin after he wrote Age of Reason saying,
01:32:15.900 no, that's not what I meant.
01:32:17.020 I'm not an atheist.
01:32:18.460 I'm actually trying to get the people in France to understand and reason with them.
01:32:24.640 It's an amazing piece of history.
01:32:26.420 Where do you keep it?
01:32:27.300 Man, if there's a fire, I want to make sure that that thing survives.
01:32:31.080 If there's a, a hurricane or a tornado, I want to make sure that that safe can be picked
01:32:35.080 up and dropped a couple of blocks away.
01:32:37.140 And that document is still fine.
01:32:38.700 That's why I have it in a Liberty Safe, whether it's your guns, your photos, whatever is important
01:32:43.340 to you, Liberty Safe.

01:32:59.220 Glenn Beck, Mercury.
01:33:09.220 Glenn Beck.
01:33:22.860 Welcome to the program.
01:33:38.140 You know, I can, I can, I can see why so many people just kind of want to tune out.
01:33:45.780 I mean, cause you can go your life and you can just, you know, see the crazy things and
01:33:51.400 kind of laugh them off and, uh, and go through your life because none of our lives have, have
01:33:57.320 really, truly been that deeply affected except on, you know, you want to start your own business
01:34:03.720 or maybe you're trapped in, you know, uh, a class because you just can't break out anymore.
01:34:09.820 Um, you know, whatever it is, we, we, we all have our frustration.
01:34:14.660 Maybe you're frustrated like the VA, the guy from the VA that we spoke to today.
01:34:19.500 He's, he gets a, he's on a morphine drip, gets a splash of morphine every six seconds.
01:34:25.400 But the VA has decided that, you know, Hey, you know, pain is, is a relief of pain is not
01:34:32.100 essential.
01:34:33.080 Are you kidding me?
01:34:34.320 Uh, but, but, but most of us have not been affected that deeply yet.
01:34:41.740 Uh, and so we, we just stand by these usurptations, these, these, uh, um, affronts to our, our freedom
01:34:52.840 and our, and, and the things that we hold dear.
01:34:55.800 But boy, we are, we are entering the time now when, when, when our biggest ally is euthanizing
01:35:04.660 children in exactly the same way and exactly the same reason that Germany started their
01:35:12.300 euthanasia program for kids that were just suffering.
01:35:16.340 Even the German people stood up against that.
01:35:20.080 Even the country that voted for Hitler forced that to end.
01:35:26.140 Will the West?
01:35:29.440 Glenn Beck, Mercury.
01:35:42.480 You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.
01:35:44.460 There's a couple of things that you should know about the, uh, the NRA held their, their
01:35:52.500 board, uh, elections and Grover Norquist has lost.
01:35:56.840 So Grover Norquist, thank God is no longer part of the NRA and the NRA is, I think getting
01:36:04.320 stronger and stronger every day.
01:36:05.900 The NRA just broke a 15 year fundraising record.
01:36:10.780 Now think of that for everything that has gone on, uh, in the last, uh, in the last
01:36:14.440 15 years, all the close calls that the second amendment has had, the NRA just broke its
01:36:21.820 fundraising record.
01:36:23.660 Uh, that's really good news.
01:36:25.920 And speaking of good news, I, I have to tell this story.
01:36:29.160 I don't know if you saw the, uh, the picture of, of the Michigan highway yesterday.
01:36:37.820 There was a guy who was thinking about throwing himself off an overpass and he was going to
01:36:44.400 throw himself off this overpass onto the freeway and, uh, a, a trucker heard about this.
01:36:51.940 And so they, they, the truckers all got together and said, let's park under the overpass.
01:37:03.320 And so the police helped them get on the highway going the opposite direction.
01:37:08.820 And what they did is as this guy was standing on the edge of the overpass, all of these
01:37:14.720 truckers pulled their semis up underneath him.
01:37:18.580 So if he jumped, he'd only fall like 10 feet and they blocked his, his path to suicide.
01:37:25.300 That's great.
01:37:25.720 I think that's one of the greatest stories ever.
01:37:27.640 It's really cool.
01:37:28.300 Yeah.
01:37:28.820 Look the picture up.
01:37:30.000 If you haven't seen the picture, it's, it's an amazing picture.
01:37:32.160 I just love that.
01:37:35.160 Just love that.
01:37:36.080 Welcome to the program.
01:37:36.880 Pat Gray.
01:37:37.320 How are you feeling today?
01:37:38.180 Oh, that good.
01:37:41.240 That good.
01:37:42.040 Yeah.
01:37:42.540 Closer to death.
01:37:43.560 Perhaps today may be the day.
01:37:45.940 Yes.
01:37:46.340 Yes.
01:37:46.540 Closer to death than yesterday.
01:37:48.220 Wow.
01:37:48.840 And, but you're, you're feeling really horrible today, but you haven't called a doctor, which
01:37:53.200 is always the right thing to do.
01:37:55.260 I think.
01:37:55.800 Yeah, it is.
01:37:56.860 Uh, because you would be on hold and then you would talk to a nurse and then they would
01:38:02.140 write something down and then you'd never hear from them again the rest of the day.
01:38:06.140 So.
01:38:06.500 Okay.
01:38:06.900 Good.
01:38:07.320 All right.
01:38:07.620 Good.
01:38:07.800 I know how that goes.
01:38:08.680 I like that.
01:38:09.380 Yeah.
01:38:10.700 Pat had kidney failure last week.
01:38:12.840 They thought he had a kidney stones, but he, well, he does, but that wasn't the problem.
01:38:16.880 Yeah.
01:38:17.260 He had a scar tissue in his fallopian tubes, uh, and, uh, he's never going to be able to have
01:38:22.300 a baby, uh, ever again.
01:38:23.880 So.
01:38:24.460 Yeah.
01:38:24.760 I don't know how it all worked, but you know, well, actually I do, but I'm a doctor, but I'm
01:38:30.420 trying to break it down into layman's terms so you can understand.
01:38:32.940 No, I think you're doing a good job.
01:38:34.320 Thank you very much.
01:38:35.380 So, so Pat, um, have you heard the Bernie Sanders plan?
01:38:40.900 Uh, yeah.
01:38:41.600 Where, where everybody gets a guaranteed job and income.
01:38:45.100 Yeah.
01:38:45.580 It's a great plan.
01:38:46.320 Yeah.
01:38:46.740 What's wrong with everybody having a job and everybody having income, Glenn?
01:38:50.160 Oh, no, no, nothing.
01:38:51.180 Nothing.
01:38:51.520 Okay.
01:38:51.720 All right.
01:38:52.160 Good.
01:38:52.280 No, not nationalizing the jobs and everything.
01:38:54.400 That's fantastic.
01:38:55.480 But have you heard the details of how they're going to do this?
01:38:59.640 No, I, he never gives details.
01:39:01.620 He actually gave some now.
01:39:03.080 Oh, yeah.
01:39:03.440 No, he had details in this plan and Stu did not believe me.
01:39:06.980 I didn't.
01:39:07.320 And so he, he went to the internet trying to prove that I was wrong.
01:39:11.920 And was I wrong, Stu?
01:39:13.960 You were actually not wrong on this one for once.
01:39:16.100 Yes.
01:39:16.380 Okay.
01:39:16.580 No way.
01:39:17.080 Really?
01:39:17.380 Yeah.
01:39:17.600 It's amazing.
01:39:17.920 Yeah.
01:39:18.520 No, I know.
01:39:19.080 It's crazy.
01:39:19.540 It happens.
01:39:20.640 How about that?
01:39:21.420 Okay.
01:39:21.680 You know, a stopped clock, you know?
01:39:23.560 Yes.
01:39:23.860 Uh, so, so, uh, here's the thing.
01:39:27.800 Now, see if you think that there's a problem, at least in PR alone on this one.
01:39:33.320 Um, he announced that the way they're going to make this work is they're going to divide
01:39:38.160 the country up into 12 districts.
01:39:42.920 Oh, yeah.
01:39:43.680 Right.
01:39:44.160 Yeah.
01:39:45.240 Yeah.
01:39:45.760 Did we, haven't we tried that before?
01:39:47.360 I think in the future we try.
01:39:49.980 Well, yeah.
01:39:50.800 Or we're going to try.
01:39:52.040 Yeah.
01:39:52.420 Yeah.
01:39:52.900 In the Hunger Games.
01:39:53.900 Yeah.
01:39:54.080 How can you be, how can everyone around you be so culturally deaf that you don't, that
01:40:02.840 nobody says, uh, that was the plot of the Hunger Games.
01:40:06.360 We probably shouldn't do that.
01:40:07.680 Not only is it the plot of Hunger Games, it's the actual action plan from one of our, uh,
01:40:13.960 you know, very close allies, China.
01:40:15.920 Yeah.
01:40:16.160 And another very close ally, Russia.
01:40:18.620 They've done that too.
01:40:20.160 I know.
01:40:21.060 But here's the thing, and I'm just going to give this one to Bernie for free.
01:40:24.600 Jeez.
01:40:24.880 I don't know if they know that George Washington was a slave owner, but I think it's wrong
01:40:29.080 that our capital is in a city called, uh, Washington.
01:40:32.060 I think we should, I think we should just call it Capital City.
01:40:35.540 Oh, yeah.
01:40:36.100 That's much, yeah.
01:40:36.620 I think that's perfect.
01:40:37.820 Right?
01:40:38.280 Yeah.
01:40:38.840 Yeah.
01:40:39.320 So we've got 12 districts and the Capital City.
01:40:42.380 And I think it's great.
01:40:45.400 I think it's great.
01:40:46.460 Uh, yeah, well, look how well it worked, uh, in that documentary.
01:40:50.560 I mean, it went really, really well, really well.
01:40:53.840 It was a beautiful city.
01:40:54.960 I mean, Capital City was really nice.
01:40:57.320 Yeah.
01:40:57.480 There were some people in that society who did very well.
01:41:00.120 Yes.
01:41:00.780 Uh, they gave, they gave some of the kids an opportunity to get some exercise.
01:41:05.400 I mean, there's a lot to be said for it.
01:41:07.500 A lot to be said for it.
01:41:09.180 Can I take a stand against the mayor of San Francisco on something?
01:41:13.220 Because I don't know if you've heard this.
01:41:14.940 This guy is the most insensitive.
01:41:16.900 Sure is.
01:41:17.480 Uh, the most non-caring bastard I think I've ever, I've ever read.
01:41:22.060 Listen to this.
01:41:22.700 It's a lot.
01:41:23.100 After years of complaints, San Francisco, San Francisco mayor Mark Farrell vowed on Friday
01:41:29.240 to become more aggressive in clearing the city's sidewalks of homeless encampments.
01:41:35.740 He told the San Francisco Chronicle, listen to this, listen to this heartless bastard.
01:41:43.460 He said, enough is enough.
01:41:45.880 We've offered services time and time again and gotten many off the street, but there's
01:41:50.140 a resistant population that remains and their tents have to go.
01:41:54.720 We have moved as a city from a position of compassion to enabling street behavior.
01:42:00.660 And as mayor, I can't stand for that.
01:42:02.960 Oh my gosh.
01:42:03.760 Why does he hate the poor?
01:42:04.760 Why does he hate the poor so much?
01:42:06.960 The poorest among us, the destitute, those who need help the most, that's who he wants
01:42:12.320 to cast right out onto literally the street.
01:42:15.980 They can't even have their tents up on the streets.
01:42:18.740 He says tents are a public safety hazard for the people living in them.
01:42:23.900 He is, he's people who don't even have houses.
01:42:26.700 He's trying to convince us that it's his compassion to not enable people to live in tents.
01:42:34.760 You know what he purports to be against are the human poop piles all along the streets
01:42:41.160 of San Francisco in a 14 block area.
01:42:44.220 They only found 300 of them.
01:42:46.480 That's it?
01:42:47.040 Human poop piles.
01:42:48.100 300?
01:42:48.680 Yeah.
01:42:49.220 Along with a lot of used syringes and drug paraphernalia and trash.
01:42:55.480 And probably five or six of the poop piles could be large dogs.
01:42:59.860 It's possible.
01:43:00.680 It's possible.
01:43:01.620 It's possible.
01:43:02.340 It's possible.
01:43:03.400 Remember when we were there?
01:43:04.460 What was that?
01:43:05.060 What year was that when San Francisco hosted the Super Bowl?
01:43:07.480 Yeah.
01:43:07.740 That was three years ago.
01:43:09.940 Yeah.
01:43:10.220 And we stayed in that nice area.
01:43:12.340 It used to be Nicolas Cage's house, right?
01:43:15.640 Yeah.
01:43:15.960 Am I remembering that right?
01:43:17.240 Yeah.
01:43:17.460 And it was supposedly, he paid 15 million for it.
01:43:20.200 And I think he overpaid a little bit, but that's what you do in San Francisco.
01:43:23.000 Anyway, that was a really nice street.
01:43:25.020 Oh, no, no, no.
01:43:25.320 I'm staying at an Airbnb, and I think it's Casey Affleck's place.
01:43:31.520 Oh.
01:43:32.580 And I think he overpaid a lot.
01:43:37.180 Really?
01:43:37.820 It's amazing how you can be in decent areas.
01:43:42.540 You go a block, and it's horrible.
01:43:46.660 Yeah.
01:43:46.980 These blue cities are coming apart at the seams.
01:43:51.820 It was horrible on that nice block, if you remember, with the smell.
01:43:56.440 The smell was disgusting.
01:43:57.580 Oh, yeah.
01:43:58.080 I mean, you could smell human waste.
01:44:00.640 You could see the garbage all over the place.
01:44:04.280 And San Francisco is probably one of the most beautiful cities in the world, or at least
01:44:07.640 it used to be.
01:44:08.780 And they just let it go to hell.
01:44:10.480 It's really, it's heartbreaking.
01:44:12.880 But I think, though, that it is, I think this is starting to come undone.
01:44:18.520 I think people are like, enough is enough, man.
01:44:21.500 Yeah, well, you've got a super liberal here who's upset with his own policies.
01:44:24.980 So, finally, I mean, they're waking up to that, at least, right?
01:44:28.180 So, what's the policy allowed?
01:44:29.560 Do you have any idea?
01:44:30.100 Like, how many human poop piles can they have on any given stretch?
01:44:32.880 I think it's only 280.
01:44:34.000 280.
01:44:34.240 And so, they've exceeded that by...
01:44:35.520 280, cut it down by a good 8%.
01:44:38.340 Last time I was here, I was in Santa Monica.
01:44:43.040 And you can't, at night, the city is handing out tents.
01:44:47.640 They're the opposite of San Francisco now.
01:44:50.220 San Francisco is mad.
01:44:51.860 But now San Francisco is saying, hey, you can't live in tents on the sidewalks.
01:44:57.980 Santa Monica is actually handing tents out.
01:45:02.300 Encouraging it.
01:45:03.760 Encouraging it.
01:45:04.740 Oh, jeez.
01:45:05.400 I mean, it's suicidal as a city.
01:45:09.780 I don't even understand it.
01:45:11.420 And all of these cities have been with the same leadership for 60, 70, 80 years.
01:45:17.920 And in some cases, completely uninterrupted over that time period.
01:45:22.560 No Republicans at all.
01:45:24.300 Detroit.
01:45:25.140 No Republicans since 1962.
01:45:27.840 Surprisingly, the year that Detroit was named America's best city.
01:45:33.200 Yeah, one of my favorite stats in any of your books, Gled, goes back to, I think it's an inconvenient book.
01:45:39.380 And it goes over, it looks at the cities with the top 10 cities with the highest poverty rates at that time, which was what?
01:45:45.260 That was a 2007 book, 2008, something like that.
01:45:47.720 But, I mean, it hasn't changed much since then.
01:45:49.760 And you look at those cities, going back, I think it was 50 years.
01:45:53.260 And the percentage of the time those 10 cities had been run by Republicans.
01:45:58.940 And it was something like, you know, 8% of the time.
01:46:02.640 I mean, like how you can go through a half century trying the same policies that result in nonstop poverty and not switch, you know, paths.
01:46:12.200 I just don't understand it.
01:46:13.880 Can you look something up for me?
01:46:15.660 Somebody told me here in California, and I just haven't had the chance to look it up, and I just remembered it.
01:46:20.500 And if it's true, it's absolutely incredible.
01:46:23.880 In a place where you have to have a permit for everything.
01:46:27.280 I mean, you know, Los Angeles is like New York.
01:46:29.260 It's insane.
01:46:30.860 And, you know, you do anything, you know, out of line.
01:46:34.540 I mean, unless you're an illegal.
01:46:35.880 And you're toast.
01:46:38.760 And it's my understanding that Elon Musk only has a handshake on the deal of boring underneath whatever city here in the L.A. area he's boring underneath.
01:46:52.620 He doesn't have permits.
01:46:54.580 The city council and the mayor, he's like, look, I think I can do some things here.
01:46:59.720 And, you know, here's the plan.
01:47:01.600 And they have a handshake on it.
01:47:03.400 Can you find out if that's true?
01:47:04.940 Because that's, what?
01:47:08.280 Yeah, that's not the way.
01:47:09.300 I mean, that's like living in Texas.
01:47:11.580 You know, somebody's like, I got an idea.
01:47:13.680 And you're like, okay, give it a shot.
01:47:16.660 Yeah, that would be a very strange one.
01:47:18.720 To tunnel under a city without a permit.
01:47:20.980 Under a city.
01:47:21.680 In California, of all places, would be a little odd.
01:47:23.680 But you wouldn't be, I'll bet you, I will bet you, that Elon Musk has enough juice and enough trust.
01:47:30.620 And the city is like, look, if we're going to permit this thing, it'll never happen.
01:47:35.460 It'll be 20 years in the permit process.
01:47:38.060 Yeah.
01:47:38.460 Maybe the idea for the city is to figure out if you can get Elon Musk to say less than 200 poop piles per quarter mile.
01:47:45.560 If you get him on that bandwagon, maybe they can get that done.
01:47:48.940 Yeah.
01:47:49.300 You know?
01:47:49.700 I mean, 200 on one side of the road.
01:47:51.560 So a total of 400, I think, is the right number.
01:47:53.760 So how big was this radius of the poop piles?
01:47:56.820 I think it was a 14 block radius.
01:47:59.740 It was a straight down that street 14 blocks.
01:48:02.800 Okay.
01:48:03.080 And that's how many they found.
01:48:03.820 Who the hell was, who would live there?
01:48:06.100 Who would live on that street?
01:48:07.700 Someone who likes to poop outside.
01:48:09.300 That person would live there.
01:48:10.500 They're into that.
01:48:12.400 That person is like, it's a pyramid.
01:48:14.180 They and their friends.
01:48:15.880 Can you imagine, I mean, imagine, is this a bad section of town?
01:48:19.760 No, no, no.
01:48:20.940 No, it's like the sections we were in.
01:48:24.180 It's just the problem San Francisco has now.
01:48:26.380 I remember, do you remember we were walking, we had, you know, women with us, and we all said we would never, ever, if we lived here, let our wives.
01:48:35.920 Yeah.
01:48:36.100 You know, not let our wives, but encourage our wives to walk outside alone.
01:48:41.040 No way.
01:48:41.740 Yeah, no way.
01:48:42.440 Because it was so dicey, and it was a good section of town.
01:48:47.820 I'll bet it one time, 10 years ago, 15 years ago, it was probably one of the nicest sections of town.
01:48:53.320 There's just no money flowing through that area.
01:48:55.440 They just don't have any money.
01:48:56.060 That's the problem.
01:48:57.120 Right.
01:48:57.660 We're tight.
01:48:58.460 That's what's amazing, is this is where all of our entire economy is pouring through this area,
01:49:05.000 and still they have these problems.
01:49:07.320 God, imagine if the economy goes bad.
01:49:09.280 Jesus.
01:49:09.660 I saw a picture of a house that was, I mean, looked like a stabbing cabin.
01:49:14.480 It was horrible.
01:49:15.660 It was about 600 or 800 square feet.
01:49:18.480 It was literally falling down.
01:49:21.920 It was in a bad section of town, and it was a million dollars.
01:49:27.860 And you couldn't inhabit it at that.
01:49:30.360 I mean, it's nuts.
01:49:32.920 Human poop included with that?
01:49:35.640 I don't know.
01:49:36.860 But you know what?
01:49:37.920 Hey, you can always make your own free country.
01:49:40.460 Make your own human poop pile.
01:49:41.820 Well, background leashed coming up in just a couple minutes on the Blaze Radio and TV networks.
01:49:49.400 Isn't all of Washington, D.C., I mean, at least the capital, just a human poop pile?
01:49:55.520 Isn't that really?
01:49:56.820 It's what it's kind of shaped like it.
01:49:59.080 We paint the capital brown, and it's an emoji.
