00:04:44.980
sport the solemn olympic oath is taken by a german rudolf ismeyer on behalf of the 5 000 competitors and
00:04:54.820
now thirty thousand carrier pigeons are released they are the doves of peace symbolizing the
00:05:07.240
comradeship that exists among all nations in the athletic arena the most impressive incident in an
00:05:11.840
impressive day is the arrival of the last of three thousand runners who have brought the sacred flame
00:05:16.160
eighteen hundred miles through seven different countries from greece
00:05:19.000
a stalwart fair-haired german carries the torch to the brazier and lights the fire
00:05:25.540
at last the perfectly organized ceremonies are over and the game has begun
00:05:34.820
in the hundred meters jesse owens on the far ride has already beaten the world record in his first heat
00:05:40.300
that the time was disallowed as the wind was behind him and running like the wind he wins the final
00:05:46.980
there's a big field in the 10 000 meters with a fast pace set by miraculously jesse owens when jesse
00:06:02.100
owens won he won four gold medals it was a a finger in the eye at german superiority
00:06:13.860
it was it was very controversial on whether he was going to go or not the country was split
00:06:27.860
when jesse owens returned he never got a telegram never got invited to the white house
00:06:37.000
jesse owens jesse owens always found that interesting
00:06:41.460
ford finally welcomed him to the white house and gave him a congressional medal or presidential medal of
00:06:49.300
honor this is the olympic torch that was carried in uh the 1936 olympics it had a uh i don't know a
00:07:02.640
a stick or a candle if you will in it at the top that kept the torch uh flame alive
00:07:14.040
and taken to the stadium it was carried by many people one of them
00:07:20.400
was a jew the guy who ran with this torch in austria
00:07:25.680
was a jew and he was proud to carry it when asked later in life he said because i think sports
00:07:36.120
listen to this i think sports is the one thing that should never become political
00:07:43.000
today's the anniversary of this olympiad the the nazi olympics as they have become known
0.69
00:07:55.940
and the winning of the gold medals by jesse owens
00:08:20.720
the olympic games were not about anything but propaganda
00:08:31.380
but this was something that the germans had become
00:08:39.020
when hitler first took over there were only about 20 20 percent of the population had a radio
00:08:50.220
uh would would play a great role in propaganda it could move people
00:08:58.260
it was new in fact newer than our social media is now
00:09:05.460
it took the nazis until 1936 before they could get 80 percent of the population on radio
00:09:13.220
but they they did some amazing things on radio they
00:09:17.940
they knew that if they could control the minds of people through radio
00:09:30.060
uh they would be able to control the german population
00:09:37.900
there were the brown shirts these were the members of the nazi party that were the actual
00:09:44.700
enforcers and they were the ones who really came in first
00:09:48.180
and one of the guys that was instrumental at least on uh radio
00:10:05.820
so he didn't really remember what the country was like before world war one like
00:10:11.940
so many can't remember what the country was like before 9 11
00:10:15.300
but he he saw the restoration or the reset of germany
00:10:24.480
as something that would be good and he became a national socialist
00:10:33.700
it was relatively new um it was an expensive medium
00:11:00.220
um because he was the so-called uh leader of the generation of war youths
00:11:10.160
um at 28 years old he gets on and he begins to decry the foreign news media
00:11:18.860
see germany by this time had controlled all of the media
00:11:25.720
and so the only thing he wasn't in charge wish with or of
00:11:30.700
were the foreign voices from the bbc and outside
00:11:37.620
in fact they were telling stories that jews were being rounded up
00:12:13.880
here he is talking about how the foreign news media
00:12:41.240
remember the olympics it was the summer of peace
00:12:45.420
he said in germany no one has laid a finger on the jews
00:13:08.700
and then in the most incredible part of this broadcast
00:13:15.600
he says what germany really seeks with the jews
00:13:24.240
because the germans have been oppressed by the jew
0.97
00:14:10.120
and i'll make sure you really understand the parallels
00:14:40.420
and the reason why they have six hours of play time
00:14:42.360
is they wanted to make sure you could fly coast to coast
00:14:44.900
and not have to worry about charging your earbuds
00:15:11.260
because i mean i've been wearing earphones for my whole life
00:15:29.640
they're half the price of the leading high-end quality earbuds
00:15:32.860
and they're just as good or better than the leading competitors
00:15:37.420
and they have a one-size-fits-all fitting system
00:15:40.440
so you're not going to be losing them out of your ears
00:16:48.280
in the east market district of downtown louisville
00:47:07.440
this is i always hate it i only i did three
0.63
00:47:24.500
percent right it's all on the line there's a part of me that's scared to
00:47:33.640
is implemented and that is okay now now he's plagiarized even bolshevik bernie's
00:47:39.700
uh socialist socialism almost word for word he's promising trillions of dollars to
00:47:46.820
aoc's insane green new deal in the process will also eliminate the
00:47:54.500
uh those are tens of millions of jobs high paying career jobs for our fellow americans
00:47:59.620
and we finally became energy independent independent in the world's largest oil
00:48:08.340
everyone from the courts you know biden will raise taxes it's amnesty it's the
00:48:13.380
united sanctuary states of america it's appeasement like barack and joe did with
00:48:19.860
the mullahs in iran with 150 billion uh there's been no greater friend to israel than donald trump
00:48:26.100
i sure i don't even know what joe's policies are there'll be no vetting of biden the way people like
00:48:31.780
me and you you vetted barack obama i vetted barack obama we took a lot of heat for vetting barack obama a lot
00:48:39.060
and but the rest of the media wouldn't the media is so corrupt they are nothing but propaganda
00:48:48.420
all things radical democratic socialist and they are cheering they they wake up every second of
00:48:55.060
every day hating this president that let's go pre-coronavirus and if you want we can talk about that
00:49:01.460
that created record low unemployment that joe and barack never dreamed of creating and the president
00:49:08.100
said it couldn't be done so so right so we just talked about um on yelp fifty percent of the
00:49:18.420
restaurants on yelp are now gone closed forever um what is the plan the the federal reserve is saying
00:49:27.940
that now we have to shut down for another hard six weeks um this is insanity sean and i know the
00:49:35.140
president knows that wall street's doing well because they're being bailed out uh with their
0.96
00:49:40.580
stocks by the federal reserve where is the president uh and how is he going to help the small business
00:49:48.260
person who is really struggling listen small business is the heart and soul of the country you we it cannot
00:49:57.620
be an option now the cdc about a week and a half ago put out their latest restrictions and what they said
00:50:04.100
and anecdotally because i live in i say this affectionately for adam schiff when this was a
00:50:11.140
shift show the epicenter of this virus in new york and i was here and i'm watching it i remember within
00:50:16.820
like 36 hours 18 000 new cases in long island talking to my friends working in hospitals very bad the
00:50:24.180
country demanded the shutdown okay we nobody knew what we were dealing with everybody got everything wrong
00:50:30.500
the medical the experts got it wrong the models were wrong and so based on the little we knew because
00:50:38.020
china lied to the world this all could have been prevented which drives me insane i'm so angry
1.00
00:50:43.380
but to go to a shutdown would be a disaster now we've learned certain things we've learned like for
00:50:49.940
example what desantis did and he's getting hammered because they have the second wave down there but he
00:50:56.260
went in immediately and mobilized every single agency in the state of florida and they protected
00:51:01.780
the people in the villages every nursing home every long-term care facility if you look at florida or
00:51:07.460
texas their total death toll doesn't match just one of the worst days in new york because we learned we've
00:51:14.500
got to protect the elderly compromised immune systems uh those that have underlying conditions okay
00:51:21.060
so the question is about the economy now if you can't shut it down the cdc says if you wear masks
00:51:27.060
four to six weeks we will eradicate the virus um i've been an early mask advocate advocate because
00:51:33.940
anecdotally glenn i was going out every week once or twice a week to my local grocery store my drug store
00:51:41.540
every single week i'd see the same people they were all in mass they had the plastic at the cashier
00:51:46.980
although i do the my own checkout and i every i i got to be friends with this one kid
00:51:53.860
you know who stocked the shelves every week now remember this too the economy ever shut down and
00:51:58.180
farmers didn't farm packers didn't pack and truckers didn't truck and guys like this young kid robert i
00:52:03.540
put him on my radio show because i'd see him every week like everybody else in that store and every week
00:52:09.060
i'd say has anyone gotten this virus the answer was no like okay same with my local drug store i have two
00:52:16.260
actually right aid and cbs same thing in both of them nobody got it they wore the mask so i've been
00:52:21.860
an advocate of the mass the cdc is saying that's the case now i'm not for mandatory anything i i'm a
00:52:28.740
freedom guy but for me i choose and i've said this i choose to wear it for because my parents are long
00:52:37.140
gone my my grandparents are long gone but if i ever got it i wouldn't want to get somebody else's parents
00:52:43.300
or grandparents sick and the other thing selfishly glenn i want to go to a baseball game i want to go
00:52:48.980
to a football game i want life to turn to normal and we can't do it you have temperature checks when
00:52:55.780
you walk in they actually have these turnstiles glenn where you can walk through it takes everybody's
00:53:00.180
temperature record time have a high temperature you can't come in today here's a ticket for another
00:53:04.980
day it would just just cash us in so for restaurants it's harder i i'm a little worried i have not
00:53:11.540
gotten a definitive answer about whether or not if this can get in air conditioning systems if we do
00:53:18.260
that coupled with and again this is only this is going to be a short period of time that americans i
00:53:24.580
would ask them voluntarily to do it because we are we've made so much progress with a therapeutics
00:53:31.380
you have moderna you have astrazeneca you know we're now in final phase trials of a vaccine and
00:53:37.780
then by the way there may be people that don't want to take it nobody should get forced to take
00:53:42.260
that they don't want to take it they shouldn't have to and but the fact that we've been able to
00:53:47.540
break down the sequence of the virus in like six weeks and could have a potential vaccine in nine
00:53:54.580
months would be mind-blowing a mind-blowing historical breakthrough of monumental proportions because
00:54:00.420
this is the worst pandemics in 1918 so that would help now can we get all of those businesses back
00:54:08.260
up and running again i doubt it you know you talk my father was a waiter on weekends you know trying
00:54:13.860
to send me and my sisters to to catholic schools um i stay in touch i only go to like four restaurants
00:54:20.740
and i i'm best friends with all the guys i've gotten to know them all i've stayed in touch with all of
00:54:24.980
them throughout the pandemic um tried to help them just mention their their names on on air my security
00:54:32.020
guy goes are you stupid and i said i care more about my friends i'm not worried about people knowing
0.96
00:54:36.900
i go to my favorite restaurants so it's tough they've adapted every single restaurant now is an
00:54:43.940
outdoor seating usually in in long island for example um they also take out drive up take out
00:54:51.780
that has been booming and i urge people you know what even though you can't go out to your favorite
00:54:56.980
restaurant just go you know go anyway go pick up food support your local community your local
00:55:02.100
business so that they're there for you and i i think it's going to be therapeutics i think it's going
00:55:07.700
to be a little bit of a discipline by the american people i do like mass social distancing you don't
00:55:13.540
want to get somebody's mom or grandma sick and and i think we're over this you know sometime in the fall
00:55:20.340
my guess i think pretty i i feel pretty certain very optimistic about that and that would be american
00:55:27.540
goodness greatness and innovation and ingenuity you know at its best that's what we love about freedom
00:55:33.380
glenn that's what patents do love about freedom okay let me let me take a quick break i'm getting my
00:55:41.220
voice back please uh mix minus um but uh we'll take a quick break and come back and i want to ask you
00:55:46.820
in the book you lay out the case uh really well of what happened um with the impeachment etc etc i just
00:55:54.020
want to know do you think anyone is going to actually go to jail is are we going to see movement on this
00:56:00.580
we keep hearing that movement is coming movement is coming and then nothing uh and i feel as though
00:56:07.220
the president really needs to clean things out uh of the deep state and do a deep cleaning and i'm
00:56:15.220
wondering if you think it's coming uh we're talking to sean hannity the name of his book live free or die
00:56:20.580
the first book from sean in 10 years we continue in just a minute first let me tell you about rec tech
00:56:26.900
when you think about food that's hot off the grill uh a nice thick steak marbled
00:56:33.460
big juicy burger lined both sides with grill marks flame shoot up all around it the fat sizzles i mean
0.93
00:56:39.780
i'm one of the weird people that uh like that i mean i know most just think about all vegetables you
00:56:45.940
know maybe some tofu whatever whatever um smart grill technology will help you be a master griller
00:56:54.100
from rec tech rec tech allows you to control the cooking of your food from an app at the touch of a
00:56:59.460
button the app is on your phone so you're in the air conditioning and you can know exactly what's
00:57:04.180
happening with your grill and the food it does all of the work uh i've been using mine now for months
00:57:10.100
now and i am a i haven't burnt anything and i always burn anything i grill follow rec tech on all
00:57:17.540
social media sign up for their newsletter and check out the best built made uh the best made uh grill
00:57:24.340
that is built here in america it's rec tech r-e-c-t-e-q that's q with at the end of it it's
00:57:31.380
rec tech with a q.com r-e-c-t-e-q.com 10 second station id
00:57:51.140
okay so you go through the the russian hoax and the impeachment it takes you a couple of chapters
00:57:57.860
to do it you go over the media what i want to know sean is is anyone of substance susan rice
00:58:05.220
anyone of substance going to be held accountable and uh are they going to jail look i don't have the
00:58:12.900
definitive answer um i can tell you glenn i literally created on on both radio and tv an ensemble cast
00:58:25.460
and i remember the first story we did it was about surveillance unmasking leaking raw intelligence
00:58:33.540
the first show we did with john solomon sarah carter was in march of 2017 um and i remember we
00:58:40.900
were together and i said to them guys there's so much more to this unpeel every layer of the onion
00:58:47.700
let's get to the bottom of this i spent well over three years now the mob and the media they were
00:58:54.340
pushing their conspiracy theory russia hoax which we now know house intelligence committee now those
00:59:01.380
interviews with all those obama people guess what we had no evidence no evidence no evidence
00:59:06.980
page and struck texted each other they had no evidence comey knew now my fear glenn this is an
00:59:14.500
important point is that we watched all these other guys go to jail for process crimes you watch what
00:59:20.740
happened to manafort pre-dawn raid you saw what happened to this kid pop roger stone do we really
00:59:27.540
need pre-dawn raid 29 guys tactical gear frogmen uh with cnn cameras that just happen to be there just
00:59:35.140
so happen to show up at the right time um do we really need that no well if you look at the inspector
00:59:42.580
general report well there have been referrals for people like comey and mccabe and others for the
00:59:48.740
exact same process crime that roger stone they want to put in jail for until he died and what's at stake
00:59:56.980
and this is what's critical here and why dorm that we've got to get to where you're saying or we might
01:00:02.900
as well shred our constitution which i know you love and revere as i do and take the rule of law and
01:00:10.740
take equal application of our laws and it's gone just like if biden who's now adopted bolshevik bernie's
01:00:19.620
economic agenda plagiarized it word for word most of it and aoc's green new deal where he's pledging to
01:00:26.900
spend trillions of taxpayer dollars on madness simultaneously eliminating gas oil and coal
01:00:33.940
which is insanity with this lofty promise that we are going to give you everything for free
01:00:40.900
of a whole chapter socialism yeah a history of failure so my answer to you is the only thing i
01:00:47.060
can tell you is it took forever to get the the horowitz inspector general report but it was damning
01:00:53.860
and it confirmed all the work me my ensemble cast i know you were covering a lot of this
01:00:58.340
uh had been able to unfold we worked hard now he didn't have the power to convene a grand jury
01:01:06.180
or indict john durham does listening to bill barr the attorney general he at one point said this isn't
01:01:13.460
about a report because no this is a criminal investigation it is incontrovertible the evidence
01:01:20.580
is overwhelming right now we could start with hillary she violated 18 usc 793 the espionage act
1.00
01:01:28.260
i can promise you glenn beck that if you ever had subpoenaed emails you decided to delete them
01:01:33.780
and then bust up or clean your hard drive with something i had never heard of the world knows now
01:01:39.300
bleach bit and break up your devices glenn beck i would probably go visit you in a prison somewhere
01:01:45.060
with a cake and a file in it to get you out of jail so i can sneak you out but that would be real
01:01:50.660
now if you or i or anybody in in the vast audience that you have and that you reach every day
01:01:59.220
if any of them ever went into a courtroom i wouldn't even go into judge judy's courtroom
0.92
01:02:04.580
and you know you were warned you were told they were told in august of 2016 numerous times that the
01:02:13.380
dirty dossier which we now know even the new york times finally admitted russian disinformation from the
01:02:19.780
beginning we did have russian interference they were trying to help hillary in that case okay you
1.00
01:02:24.740
take information that is unverifiable now debunked completely total lie says on the top of a fisa warrant
01:02:31.780
verified and then you go before a court and you were told that it's up that don't trust christopher
01:02:39.220
steele that it's not been verified that hillary paid for it and as mccabe said the deputy fbi
01:02:46.020
director but without that dirty dossier you do not get those fisa applications to take away carter
01:02:52.020
pages civil liberties and constitutional rights but even more sinister to spy on a presidential
01:02:58.580
candidate clenbeck this is the united beep beep states of america seriously we're going to spy on
01:03:05.940
presidential candidates we're going to abuse and again the one percent of news power and then then
0.86
01:03:12.420
it's transition team then we're going to spy deep into the trump presidency if we the evidence is
01:03:18.020
overwhelming and incontrovertible now they did it all and they're all guilty if we if we don't uh
01:03:26.260
see people go to jail um we are living in a banana republic uh and i hope that donald trump pushes this
01:03:35.700
and puts real people in jail for it because it is a real threat to the nation it's uh the uh the
01:03:45.220

01:05:46.820
uh marxist and the cities in dallas are all being lost uh to george soros and his cronies and
0.96
01:05:56.340
um all the money that's going in to fix these elections uh the city of dallas has just canceled the young
01:06:02.340
americans for liberty convention this is something that has been in the works for months the city has
01:06:08.180
known about it it starts on thursday last night at the loading dock of the omni hotel uh they were
01:06:17.460
told uh that uh the city was canceling uh their convention now this is a city that has had all of
01:06:25.300
the pro you know black lives matter rallies they don't have a problem with it etc etc uh young americans
01:06:32.660
for liberty the convention that they the city kept trying to put roadblock after roadblock and they
01:06:37.780
complied to all of them social distancing had to have face masks etc etc it was a million dollar
01:06:44.980
convention uh that already people were on their way they were on the loading dock and the city didn't
01:06:52.500
have the balls to say anything they told the omni and the omni had been great the omni had bent over
01:06:58.900
backwards the omni wanted the business uh and the city called and said you have to tell them and so
01:07:07.380
on the loading loading dock the the manager of the omni came out and said sorry guys the
01:07:13.700
the city has canceled uh this event there were a hundred elected officials 250 investors that were set
01:07:21.940
to attend many of them are still flying in um and i want to know is there a is there a a city within
01:07:32.420
the dallas area that would like a convention to come in it has room for a thousand or fourteen hundred
01:07:40.180
people uh they are they are looking for another home uh and uh they're looking for a hotel and you know
01:07:48.660
restaurants and that'd be quite a boom to uh some city anybody anybody want them anybody want them
01:07:58.100
contact us or yal uh if you contact us we'll put you um in touch uh this is this is a disgrace that
0.79
01:08:06.820
it's happening in our city one of the speakers was supposed to be governor christy noem she's uh the
01:08:12.020
republican uh governor from south dakota she's on with us now hi christy how are you governor i'm i'm
01:08:18.180
i'm doing great glenn you can call me christy uh so you were you were going to attend this is
01:08:27.140
i mean have you seen anything like this from a major city before
01:08:33.220
well i think it's surprising coming from texas i mean they're the home of the alamo uh the come and
01:08:38.500
take it flag it's supposed to be one of the best places in america you know in a state that stood up
01:08:44.420
and protected people's liberties god-given rights these young people were all coming
01:08:48.820
to exercise their first amendment freedom of assembly and to have the city of dallas pull
01:08:53.300
the rug out from underneath them i think is an absolute shame they have their staging banners
01:08:57.780
their tech equipment already in the parking lot and did they do this to protesters the blm movement
01:09:04.580
you know they didn't so you know that's just what is shocking to me is what's happening
01:09:09.940
um in areas and what people that have traditionally been reasonable are now willing to justify in their
01:09:16.900
minds so christy we are just going down into uh a very dark place half the country is this is looking
01:09:30.420
at this stuff and saying this is crazy but it's not happening in their area and so they they might think
01:09:35.780
that this is isolated um and the other the other half of the country has just slid into
01:09:43.940
some sort of fascism or or authoritarianism you know what people need to remember and what so few
01:09:52.820
people are talking about is that the one simple truth in america is that government has the power that it does
01:10:00.420
because the people consent to it and we have consented specifically to a government that serves all of
01:10:06.100
us equally that it's going to protect and uphold the fundamental rights enumerated by our constitution
01:10:12.020
and that's what i see being broken each and every day in this country by what's happening in these
01:10:17.620
areas and people need to wake up and they need to really start speaking out when this start when these
01:10:24.740
types of inequalities start to happen and how government is is laying burdens on individuals that have
01:10:31.140
a certain uh typical traits and then they're not doing it to others
01:10:39.060
the governor of i think it's maryland uh just called bs on this but as of yesterday uh before he ruled on
01:10:48.340
this uh the state of maryland was going to open public schools back up but close all private schools
01:10:56.180
which is directly what the teachers unions are asking for they want a moratorium on all uh private
01:11:03.860
schools on all religious schools and uh all charter schools just the public schools would be coming back
01:11:10.340
uh your thoughts on opening schools back up well we are opening our schools on time here in south
01:11:20.100
dakota every school will be opened up they're each doing it a little bit differently according to what
01:11:25.220
works for their buildings facilities and their staff but i have consistently talked about why these
01:11:31.060
kids need to be in schools and in maryland those folks need to push back on that and use every legal
0.98
01:11:36.580
opportunity and tool that they have to make sure that they're fighting these battles now because
01:11:42.340
so many people are tired and they're not they're not really pushing on this and this is the time where
01:11:48.260
you're really fighting for what our country looks like the next 50 years but in south dakota you know we
01:11:54.900
have talked about why these kids need to be in school they've only accomplished about 70 of their learning
01:12:01.140
potential uh in reading because outside of the classroom so we know we've lost 30 proficiency
01:12:08.660
there and math it's over half that isn't being garnered so our kids while we have to capitalize on
01:12:14.740
their opportunities to learn when they're young are missing out on that and we're we're detrimentally
01:12:19.300
impacting them for the rest of their lives and then i've got in some school districts up to 30 of
01:12:25.220
the students that we don't know where they are they simply don't have a simple or a stable home life
01:12:30.900
they don't have parents that are doing their jobs and we hate this the fact that the school has to
01:12:36.660
play this role in kids lives but the reality is that they do we don't know if they're being fed we
01:12:42.660
don't know if they're being neglected and when those kids come into that building and those teachers
01:12:48.500
lay eyes on them many times that is when we find out a situation that's going on at home that needs
01:12:53.460
to be addressed or intervention needs to happen so when that is happening in south dakota and some of
01:12:59.140
our school districts we know what's happening across the country and for the sake of those kids
01:13:02.820
that are the most vulnerable get them into a school to where other people can see what the quality of
01:13:08.180
their life has been like and help them reach their potential and intervene if they need it
01:13:13.300
i'm really uh torn about my kids going back to school i want my kids to go back into school they really
01:13:19.300
need it they were homeschooled for a long time but they're both in high school and it's it's time for
01:13:24.740
them to be with their peers and they enjoy it and they're having a heck of a time uh who is struggling
01:13:31.620
through for through what is going on now um however i'm i'm i'm also very aware that the 1619 project is
01:13:40.580
coming into schools i i know who the teachers unions are i know that i mean it's it's almost a lose lose
01:13:48.020
in many ways uh are you doing anything to make sure that real history is being taught and not all
01:13:55.460
this social justice black lives matter bull crap well it was say that you might well no that's totally
0.70
01:14:03.540
fine we brought a bill my first session i was governor to put more civics in the classroom i just
01:14:09.140
i started pushing it as soon as i was governor it was shocking to me because my republican legislature
01:14:14.100
rejected it um but i'm going to continue to push to make sure that that we get this type of history
01:14:21.380
and maybe this type of situation will educate folks on how important it is that we know our history so
01:14:26.180
we aren't doomed to repeat it but i uh you know it we don't have to look far to find out um how we're
01:14:33.220
breaking our system uh here in this country right now by allowing these leaders to overstep the
01:14:38.180
authorities that they have in a time of crisis and take away our freedoms and liberties so uh the
01:14:43.300
more we we talk about it the more we educate our kids the more we can ensure that we keep america
01:14:48.180
special it's amazing uh to me even though the republicans have the senate and the white house uh how
01:14:58.420
how how much control still is being held uh by the extremists who really want to just take our country
01:15:08.420
um apart and i don't think most people even know uh where to turn uh at this point you have the federal
01:15:17.700
reserve the chair in minnesota now saying that we need a hard lockdown of another uh six weeks at least
01:15:26.180
we have businesses all over the country 50 percent of small businesses are just not making it they're
01:15:33.700
not going to make it uh i mean this isn't what we bargained for this is not what we agreed to
01:15:41.460
do you see an end to this well a couple things glenn um you know don't get me started on the
01:15:49.460
dysfunction in dc referred i spent eight years out there in congress and what would fix that place
01:15:54.580
would be uh rules process i mean they have broken the system so poorly that that's why we're in the
01:16:01.780
situation that we have you know in south dakota here if i have a bill it's going to automatically
01:16:06.660
get a hearing it doesn't matter what the bill's on it's going to get a hearing if it passes three
01:16:10.580
days later it's going to be on the floor for a vote if it passes the house the senate has to take
01:16:15.380
it up and debate it in a committee and put it through the process and then if it gets passed by the
01:16:19.700
house and the senate then it's on my desk that kind of process in dc would fix 90 of what's wrong
01:16:25.700
with this country because these guys have figured out a system and set up rules committees where they
01:16:30.500
can change the rules every single day every bill can be voted on in a different rule and they can
01:16:35.780
completely ignore pieces of legislation that the other body is doing and they do it to keep from
01:16:40.420
making tough votes so if they just had to deal with the reality of the ideas that are there and have
01:16:46.260
hearings on them that would fix a lot of this the second part of that is get rid of the tvs
01:16:51.540
because everything i see in dc is posturing it's a speech for a political purpose and it's not
01:16:56.740
legislating and it's not having real debate on issues and people are scared to even ask real
01:17:02.100
questions out there because of how it'll be turned on them on tv and used forever against them so that's what
01:17:08.980
is breaking a lot of dc but but i think going forward we have to have the fortitude to make
01:17:16.660
sure that we're focused on reality people should not be waking up every day scared um and glenn and
01:17:23.140
are worried and i think that's what our leaders need to do is when you have a time like this
01:17:29.220
which is unprecedented in the challenge that we face it gives us a unique opportunity to wake up
01:17:34.100
optimistic and be have leaders that that focus on the things we can do together and respect
01:17:40.180
the personal responsibility and decisions that other people are making even though you differ with them
01:17:46.340
on what they're doing for their families let them do that make the decisions that are best for you
01:17:51.860
and that's what america is that's that's why people came to this country is because they wanted to
01:17:57.940
make decisions for themselves and they knew they wouldn't be persecuted for their belief system here in this
01:18:04.020
country and have equal opportunity and our leaders aren't even demonstrating that so it's going to
01:18:09.300
take a a unique opportunity look at our kids they're waking up every day listening to adults talk about
01:18:14.260
how scared and worried they are that's doing real damage to them and we need to grow up ourselves as
01:18:19.860
adults and start talking about some of the optimistic wonderful things that we have in our lives and
01:18:24.580
the opportunities in front of us if we get the right people making those decisions
01:18:27.780
christy noem uh the governor of uh of south dakota thank you so much for being on i hope that we find
01:18:35.300
a place here in texas that will host you and the rest of uh yal so you can come down to texas this
01:18:41.940
weekend and and experience real freedom in the uh in the state of texas if they want to pack up and head
01:18:48.740
up to south dakota we'll have them that'd be wonderful thanks a lot i appreciate it all right our sponsor

clay travis an author radio show host lawyer tv analyst uh and founder and lead writer of outkick
01:24:18.260
i mean the guy is hogging all of the jobs in america uh and uh it's pissing me off clay travis
01:24:27.220
welcome to the program how are you i'm doing well how are you guys appreciate you having me
01:24:32.180
you bet you bet uh now i know when you think sports you immediately think glenn beck uh but
01:24:38.980
there are some people in the listening audience that are not as good at uh sports talk as i am
01:24:45.220
of course uh so feel free to talk down uh to me um clay i wanted to talk to you about a couple of
01:24:51.540
things first of all uh these companies that are lecturing us uh espn uh the nba that are lecturing
01:25:00.580
us about how to live our lives and uh and social justice and then uh we find out nba china the
01:25:09.700
academies over there uh they were horror shows and everybody knew about it yeah it's it's in
01:25:18.740
the height of hypocrisy i i think for people out there who aren't aware the nba in particular wants
01:25:25.220
to brand itself as a socially justice blatant league and they want to convince everybody that
01:25:32.260
if you're not supporting the nba you're a horrible human being and they've looked they put social
01:25:38.100
justice messages on their jerseys they put it literally on the court nobody is standing for
01:25:43.700
the national anthem uh every single game it's a triple header there of social justice activism
01:25:51.540
yet simultaneously they are cashing checks for hundreds of millions or billions of dollars from
01:25:58.820
china uh in what i'm sure you agree with me is the closest thing to modern nazism i know it's a
0.91
01:26:05.380
constant uh basic government but if you were trying to analogize to modern society look they're
01:26:10.820
they're aggressively taking over uh hong kong they want taiwan the south china sea uh and certainly
01:26:17.940
they're pulling books literally out of libraries they are fundamentally opposed to basic human rights
01:26:22.740
the first amendment to religious freedom and they have concentration camps that sounds very similar to
01:26:28.340
the authoritarianism that we saw from nazi germany and so i think what i'm asking and what many
01:26:34.100
people out there who are reasonably intelligent are asking is wait a minute how can you simultaneously
01:26:39.700
lecture america and try to tear down american values while bending the knee to china you say if
01:26:48.420
if we shut up and dribble it's racist in america but if china pays you enough money you'll shut up and
0.89
01:26:53.300
dribble about much worse abuses that are going on in their country and frankly i think the average american
01:26:59.220
is is is up to their eyeballs and hypocrisy and can't stand for it so what do you think about the
01:27:05.140
ratings uh that are that are just tanking right now i heard that last time that people were sick of
01:27:11.860
it and the ratings were going down but it didn't seem to be actually accurate this time i just read that
01:27:18.900
nba and major league baseball ratings are in the tank is that true and is this happening because people are
01:27:26.660
sick of it well so there's a fascinating sort of interplay that's going on right now so for people
01:27:32.740
who haven't been paying attention we are dealing with the wildest august of sports that we've ever
01:27:38.420
seen that they start at noon eastern and go till midnight every day in the nba the nhl major league
01:27:45.460
baseball and golf as well and the storyline so far has been there's a huge pent-up demand for sports to
01:27:53.460
return and initially there is a massive blip uh we saw with nascar we saw with major league
01:27:59.140
baseball we saw with ufc we saw with pga related events nba didn't go up uh in fact the nba actually
01:28:06.980
went down a little bit uh on averages right out of the gates and since then the numbers have continued
01:28:14.020
to decline so whereas every other league in particular saw this massive uptake in interest
01:28:21.540
the nba has been trending below their average season interest before they ever shut down at all
01:28:28.740
for people why do you think what that means i i think it's because of the politics look there there
01:28:34.340
are very few people i believe you gain by deciding to be political in the world of sports by which i mean
01:28:40.580
there are very few people who say oh i'm not going to watch this sport because there isn't enough
01:28:46.420
politics mixed in with right there's very few people who say that most people glenn they want
01:28:52.100
to get a beer they want to kick their feet up and they want to escape the serious things in life
01:28:56.980
that's why they watch sports right they don't want to watch fox news or msn uh nbc or cnn or local news
01:29:04.500
or whatever else they don't want to think about the coronavirus they want to just have a beer kick
01:29:08.980
their feet up and escape the serious things in life for a very long time back in the day when everybody
01:29:13.860
bought newspapers uh the sports section was called the toy chest of life right like even as an adult
01:29:19.620
you'd feel a little bit better as you open the sports page because it's a recitation of men's
01:29:24.180
successes whereas very often uh the rest of the newspaper is a recitation of men's failures right
01:29:30.820
and so i believe that the people that you are gaining are minuscule to non-existent by being political
01:29:38.820
and that you're losing a ton and my argument has been glenn that that's because many people out
01:29:43.620
there think of the average nba viewer as a 16 year old on instagram uh in reality the average nba viewer
01:29:51.940
is a 55 year old guy in the midwest uh and that guy might well have voted for donald trump you know
01:29:58.340
there are millions of people if not tens of millions that overlap between nba fans who may be republican
01:30:05.380
or have voted for donald trump and so when you're telling those people hey you're awful human beings
01:30:11.700
well why in the world would i want to support uh your league with my free time when there are a lot
01:30:17.620
of other things that i could choose to do instead it's interesting clay i mean this is the united states
01:30:22.420
of america and i've always kind of been of the opinion that you we're going to put up with a lot of
01:30:26.660
stuff to watch sports i mean you know as an eagles fan if carson wentz joins isis tomorrow i'm probably
01:30:31.620
still watching uh yeah right but there is a limit right and i feel like i you know just watching the
01:30:36.980
nba the past few days i mean the limit it's constantly in your face every interview is about
01:30:42.740
what they think about the national anthem it's as if these games mean absolutely nothing and that is
01:30:48.020
not a way to sell your sport well here's the larger context if people say like hey you need to
01:30:53.940
use your platform for uh to advance better causes and all these different things what i said on my
01:30:59.460
radio show this morning and i host the nationwide fox sports radio morning show was i said hey you
01:31:05.540
know murders are up according to yesterday's front page wall street journal 24 in the 50 largest uh
01:31:11.860
cities in this country i think there's a strong argument to be made that the protests in the nba
01:31:18.500
aren't just alienating viewers i think you can make an argument that they are making america less safe
01:31:24.820
for the people that they claim that they care about the most because there are hundreds if not
01:31:30.740
thousands of people who are dying in inner cities and in cities in america today because the nba and
0.98
01:31:37.860
other sports leagues have effectively whether they want to acknowledge it directly or not decided to
01:31:43.140
demonize law enforcement and make the police the enemy of their league and the enemy of their country
01:31:50.980
when in reality we never talk about the tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of lives that
01:31:56.660
police save every single year in this country and so when you don't let police do their jobs because
01:32:04.340
you're arguing they're all awful human beings based on the actions of a handful that deserve to be
01:32:11.060
prosecuted i think you can make an argument that not only is the nba making it worse for themselves and
01:32:17.940
their own sport which is at least a business and people can respond to it i think there's a strong
01:32:23.620
argument that the nba is actually making things worse in america right now and leading to more
01:32:29.300
deaths than there would be if they had in fact just played the games so how does this how does this play
01:32:36.420
out i mean when you're looking at this i mean i think isn't drew breeze is still apologizing this
01:32:42.420
morning he's still behind a microphone apologizing uh when you have people just scared out of their
01:32:50.580
wits that they're going to lose everything if they don't abide how do you get this to be changed
01:32:57.940
i mean what happens from here i i believe in markets right i'm a capitalist i know that sometimes
01:33:04.020
that's a bad word to use in america today um not here i believe that that ultimately pocketbook
01:33:10.580
decisions dictate everything right and so uh what we're doing at outkick is we're throwing punches
01:33:18.180
back we're like the only people out there are like man i like sports but i've lost my you know sort of uh
01:33:23.300
sort of ballywick there you can go read outkick and you can listen to us and we're throwing punches
01:33:28.420
back at what we think are bad arguments but yesterday i had one of my partners at outkick.com
01:33:33.700
jason whitlock on with me who's fantastic i think i think the most talented sports writer in america
01:33:38.820
and he's got a whale of a column uh that's up on our site today about george floyd and uh and and
01:33:44.020
the challenges that is brought to bear on sports and some of the poor decisions that are being made
01:33:48.900
uh but he said and i think this is true and i think it's not just true for sports writers there's a
01:33:52.820
lot of people out there who 100 percent disagree with the direction that sports are going even in our
01:33:59.140
sports media industry but they're like man i got a job that pays me 75 or 80 thousand dollars a year
01:34:05.460
i got a kid in college i got a kid that uh that i'm hoping to put in college sometime soon and it's
01:34:10.660
just not worth me rocking the boat to point out that i disagree when we're in such a universe now
01:34:16.660
where if you have the wrong opinion you lose your job so i think what's important is one everybody out
01:34:22.340
there listening make their own decision on a day-to-day basis about how they spend their free
01:34:26.580
time based on whether they feel like they are being respected or not uh and whether they're
01:34:31.220
getting their dollar of enjoyment out of it or not but two i think you need to support people who are
01:34:36.100
throwing punches back so that there becomes more of a marketplace idea in the world of sports glenn i'll
01:34:41.860
give you an example uh one of the kids who stood up when i say kid because he's a young guy uh was a
01:34:47.540
uh was a guy named uh last name isaac right uh and uh he's an orlando magic player very religious
01:34:54.820
stood up for the national anthem and gave a great answer about why he did so the next day
01:35:01.060
unfortunately he tore his acl playing for the orlando magic jonathan isaac is his name
01:35:07.460
that same day espn one of their national radio shows put up a poll on twitter was it funny that
01:35:16.020
the guy who didn't stand for the national anthem tore his acl well they would never have done that if
01:35:22.660
colin kafernik had torn his acl after kneeling it's become cool in the sports media to ridicule
01:35:30.100
people if they have different political opinions than you deem to be acceptable and that is basically
01:35:36.580
anything other than far left wing i think that's alienating a huge portion of the american sporting
01:35:43.060
public and as a result we're not having an actual marketplace of ideas but i think we need to fight back
01:35:48.420
um and uh and i think the great thing about being a capitalist and the great thing about markets is
01:35:53.540
i'm not really a boycott guy but i am of the belief that if you watch a television show and you
01:35:58.580
ultimately even if you used to enjoy watching it if the show is not very good anymore go find something
01:36:03.780
that's better if you're a sports fan and you're watching sports and you're like you know what i'm not
01:36:08.980
getting as much enjoyment out of this as i used to go watch something else go golf yourself go play a
01:36:14.340
sport yourself and ultimately when the dollars dry up and when the audience dries up everybody's going
01:36:21.220
to take a step back and say man what were we thinking with the decisions that we made
01:36:26.500
we're talking to clay travis he's the author of republicans buy sneakers to radio host outkicks the
01:36:32.900
coverage and the founder of outkick we're going to continue our conversation here in just a second
01:36:37.780
first let me uh tell you about our sponsor this uh half hour it's gold line boy i don't know if
01:36:44.340
you've been following what is happening uh in the news with with the dollar but the dollar is on the
01:36:51.380
rocks uh it has lost 10 percent of its value in the last uh what month or so uh that is a significant
01:37:00.660
loss i think it's going to lose about 30 percent here this fall i could be wrong goldman sachs is saying
01:37:06.740
that uh gold they think by spring is going to be up about 2500 i've heard as much as 3500 an ounce
01:37:13.540
i don't i don't know about that i it will depend i think on who's elected and how we
01:37:19.300
how we clean things up uh we just had another hit with uh fitch the uh the ratings uh our credit
01:37:27.300
ratings uh provider one of them they uh just downgraded us again left our triple a status but uh moved us into
01:37:34.900
an extreme uh risk position because of the way we are handling things right now there is every reason
01:37:42.740
now every reason to please put yourself into a situation to where you are guarded against collapse
01:37:52.500
when the world goes insane it always goes back to gold that's why goldman sachs is saying that gold is
01:37:58.900
going to go up so high i don't buy it as an investment i buy it as a as a hedge against
01:38:04.580
inflation and i've told you before i'll stop recommending it when the world starts to go back
01:38:10.420
the other direction uh well it's not and in fact i've doubled down and i have gone uh to gold line and
01:38:17.940
i bought some of their five dollar gold liberty coins the last time they found a bunch these are old
01:38:23.540
five dollar liberty coins from the early 1900s they have for one week only they have these coins
01:38:30.660
they're selling now at a record pace but this week if you buy uh any of their five dollar gold liberty
01:38:37.300
coins you'll also get a half an ounce platinum coin with your uh with your purchase of the five
01:38:43.300
dollar liberty coins that's a full half ounce platinum coin for free and gold line has the genuine
01:38:51.220
five dollar uh liberty coins it's 866 gold line call them right now somebody is uh waiting to take
01:38:58.420
your phone call right now they can give you all of the information don't they're not going to pressure
01:39:03.540
you but don't make a decision right away unless you've already thought it thought it through uh but
01:39:08.260
get all of the information and do your homework and look and see if gold or silver is right for you
01:39:13.380
866 gold line that's 1-866 gold line call them now 10 seconds station id
01:39:21.220
so we're talking to uh clay travis author of republicans by sneakers to radio host outkick the
01:39:41.300
coverage founder of outkick uh and i wanted to ask you about another story that came up today it
01:39:46.420
looks like the rock has bought the xfl uh is i didn't even know the xfl was still in business
01:39:55.380
what do you think of that i think it's an intriguing first of all they're not in business you know they're
01:40:00.500
buying out of bankruptcy uh and it's hard to say exactly whether the xfl has a long-term viable
01:40:07.140
business model or not uh but there seems to always be this sort of idea this panacea that there is an
01:40:13.700
interest in spring football and uh to me the question with the xfl has always been could they
01:40:21.540
in some way get an affiliation with the nfl such that the nfl has a minor league you probably remember
01:40:27.940
back in the day they had the world league of football uh and the uh nfl in europe and everything
01:40:34.020
else that they were trying to develop and there was good talent that came out of there i feel like there
01:40:39.300
are a lot of nfl teams that would enjoy seeing some of the years young guys getting reps in actual
01:40:44.740
football games and uh that there's maybe a way to almost develop a minor league type system right now
01:40:50.580
of course the nfl basically gets a free minor league with college football but there are a lot of 18
01:40:56.500
and 19 year olds who aren't allowed to go pro for three years coming out of college that might say hey
01:41:02.100
you know what instead of staying in school i'd rather make a hundred thousand dollars a year playing
01:41:06.980
football and so to me that is at least a viable option in theory um you know for the television
01:41:13.940
purposes i think people will watch it the challenge is it's hard to develop a fan base and so i think
01:41:20.100
you know using very many sold tickets as the uh as the driving force is tough but i think the idea of
01:41:26.100
spring football given how much people like football in general is kind of the holy grail for lack of a better
01:41:33.220
term of what many people feel is an underserved market and if you if you actually provide uh good
01:41:42.260
uh players isn't this a market that would gladly go to somebody else that does not have a history
01:41:50.580
of now calling the country a bad place uh standing against its values and and putting black live matter
0.89
01:41:58.660
uh quotes in the end zones yeah look i mean i i think what you are going to find is that we know
01:42:06.260
this look i feel like much of this is like uh is is just so ridiculous whether it's defund the police or
01:42:13.460
the protest in the nfl look when colin kaepernick protested in the nfl for two years the nfl lost 19
01:42:22.100
of its audience that's not me talking you know and just making up arguments that's the data that is out
01:42:27.460
there as soon as the nfl settled the colin kaepernick anthem protest ratings came back and this is not
01:42:34.340
rocket science look people like sports they enjoy being entertained by them but if you're going to
01:42:40.660
tell them that with sports they have to take a side of politics they're going to choose to spend their
01:42:46.100
time elsewhere and so to me what immediately stands out is it's as if the nba and major league
01:42:52.900
baseball and the nfl learned nothing from the entire process over the past several years surrounding
01:42:59.940
colin kaepernick there isn't this huge demand for it we thank you so much for uh being on with us uh
01:43:08.260
clay travis author of a book called uh republicans buy sneakers too you'd think that would be obvious to
01:43:16.420
people but apparently not uh also uh is the radio host outkick the coverage which is going to be
01:43:23.060

nonsense on studios america last night it's something you don't want to miss go to blaze tv.com slash glenn
01:45:03.380
since we're here on uh sports which we never uh get to on this program uh stew is actually a big
01:45:14.020
sports fan and uh as is kind of brought it into the political world and pointed out all of the just
01:45:22.100
stupid stupid social justice stuff that is going on uh and as always on uh stew does whatever it is he does
0.89
01:45:32.020
on that show stew does whatever uh last night it was stew does oh this was stew does the woke invasion
01:45:40.020
because i'm sick of the wokeness just invading every single uh element of our society and we cannot
0.88
01:45:47.500
avoid it even in sports now uh to a ridiculous uh degree like for example glenn there was a game
01:45:54.200
the celtics played the trailblazers the other night big game uh jalen brown one of their players scores
01:45:58.900
30 points uh i want to see what the what the write-up of the story is what's the write-up jalen brown's
01:46:04.980
comments about the national anthem and it's like well why the hell do i care what jalen brown has to say
01:46:10.620
about the national anthem um of course i stupidly then clicked on it and actually tried to listen to
01:46:16.000
what jalen brown said about the national anthem and my head basically exploded i haven't heard anyone
01:46:20.360
else cover this maybe clay travis has he'd be probably the only guy who would do it uh but listen to this
01:46:25.680
this is uh jalen brown talking about uh after uh the game the other night before we get started guys
01:46:31.860
i want to address the national anthem i want to show my solidarity to the nba and adam silva okay for
01:46:39.540
uh allowing us to be able to to peacefully protest a peacefully protest first of all that's interesting
01:46:46.040
because the distinction made there that it's peaceful uh which i did not see jalen brown speaking
01:46:50.580
out at all against all of the non-peaceful protests going out around the country when buildings were
01:46:55.740
burning down i didn't see a lot of that but maybe it was out there uh but he went on to talk a little
01:47:01.480
bit about some of the important people that define his view of race in america angela davis once said
01:47:09.280
that uh racism is so dangerous uh not because of individual actors because it's deeply embedded in
01:47:15.580
apparatus she's she's of course non-violent oh yeah yeah who's dangerous it's not racism uh as much
01:47:23.100
as it is angela davis uh because angela davis uh of course had a big love affair glenn if you might
01:47:28.480
remember with a with a man named george jackson who happened to be in prison um she wrote to him in
01:47:34.120
prison said all my life's efforts have gone in one direction free george jackson that is all that
01:47:39.760
matters liberation by any means necessary the american oppressor has revealed to us what we must do
01:47:45.500
if we're serious about our commitment i am serious about my love for you about black people i should
01:47:50.260
be ready to go all the way what did all the way mean i'm curious because it's just complete coincidence
01:47:58.000
that george jackson's brother busted into a courtroom to take hostages to demand george's freedom armed
01:48:06.400
with guns that were purchased and registered to angela davis what a crazy coincidence after all of those
01:48:14.580
letters about liberation at any cost that she would buy guns and two days later they'd find their way
0.99
01:48:20.120
into george jackson's brother's hands who would go and murder a judge after they took him hostage and
01:48:26.020
then multiple people die in a police shootout that's just a weird coincidence she was talk she was talking
01:48:32.640
about going all the way in another way wink wink you know what i'm talking about and she's peaceful
01:48:39.300
she didn't do it no well that's how just purchased the guns she was a hunter she was on the fbi's most
1.00
01:48:45.380
wanted list the second african-american woman in history to be on that list uh she then did get
0.99
01:48:50.820
acquitted glenn you're right by a very friendly jury and she went on to a wonderful career running for the
01:48:56.280
vice presidential slot of communist party usa twice now she did not win in either case which is fortunate
01:49:03.620
for jaylen brown because it's unlikely he'd get his four-year 115 million dollar contract if she had
01:49:09.800
won those nominations uh and and uh and won the actual vice presidency uh and i will say to to jaylen
01:49:17.800
brown's credit he is averaging 13 points a game for his career so it seems like about 30 million dollars
01:49:23.060
is the right number for that sort of production it's incredibly uh incredible uh 1.4 assists per game
01:49:29.580
which is great as well i know that means a lot to you but glenn if you think about it it's passing
01:49:33.160
it's sharing to each according to his knee uh his ability and from each according to you got it
01:49:39.200
um so uh so um when jaylen brown is now back and he's already finished talking about the communist
01:49:46.480
murder suspect um this is a game he scored 30 points in by the way um he uh he he then goes into
01:49:52.680
talking about the national anthem and as you know glenn uh racism violent just in every aspect of our
01:50:00.300
society he's identified it in the national anthem listen i think about that quote a lot when i think
01:50:07.320
about the national anthem um which was written by francis scott key who was a slave owner um when we
01:50:14.480
talk about the national anthem we don't really talk a lot about um the third verse that was written
01:50:19.520
we don't which addresses you know slavery mentions like there's no hope for you know uh a hireling
01:50:26.960
or a slave but the gloom of the grave so um racism is so deeply embedded in our country
01:50:34.520
that people don't even flinch or they don't flinch even shift at the idea it kind of is what it is
01:50:40.180
well it isn't what that is i don't know what that was but that's not what it is
01:50:45.920
um so there is a verse third verse glenn uh no refuge could save the hiring hireling and slave
01:50:52.380
for the uh from the terror of flight or the groom of the gloom of the grave um and it does kind of
01:50:59.420
sound like it's celebrating the death of slaves um unfortunately people have looked into this before
01:51:06.680
and uh you know the internet rumor that it's about slaves not actually true here's a quote from the
01:51:12.200
hardcore right-wing source of the minneapolis star tribune taken in context the term hireling likely
01:51:19.440
refers to mercenaries who bolstered a british fighting force decimated by napoleonic wars
01:51:24.060
many americans are aware of hessians german troops who augmented british armies during the
01:51:27.880
revolutionary war and rather than referring to a particular handful of fighters the term slave
01:51:32.640
describes all of the monarch's loyal subjects including british troops as contrasted with free
01:51:39.040
patriot americans that's from a historian who wrote the book star spangled banner the unlikely story
01:51:44.580
of america's national anthem the headline of his piece by the way glenn national anthem's third
01:51:49.460
verse stirs passions but the reading is erroneous francis scott key's reference to slave was not
01:51:55.160
literal uh do you know do you know about him uh owning slaves yeah yeah he did know about francis
01:52:01.580
yeah he did he did own 20 slaves at one point she did free also a bunch of them um was they he has a
01:52:09.220
they call a complicated history as he fought for freedom uh for many slaves as well um you know
01:52:16.860
again i don't know why anyone would have a complicated history with slavery but many people
01:52:21.040
did in that day i uh wasn't it francis scott key that was given the slaves as a marital endowment
01:52:29.120
that he rejected didn't want them yeah he tried to fight his wife over them yeah he fought with his
01:52:36.080
wife he did not want slaves and so he fought to free those slaves uh so i mean you know if somebody
01:52:43.240
gives you a gift i know at a wedding i've received lots of gifts that have just gone into the closet
01:52:49.800
and we don't even until that aunt arrives we don't put it out anywhere you wouldn't do that with a slave
01:52:58.320
he actually worked to free the slaves that he was given as a gift it's not like he went out and bought
01:53:04.840
them and he was also i mean he was like one of the founding fathers essentially of liberia uh which
01:53:09.920
is where uh you know again a country that currently to this day still loves america uh the capital is
01:53:15.460
monrovia after james monroe it was where many of the free slaves went back uh to live and he was kind
01:53:21.080
of one of the lead advocates for that at the time um you know it's it's interesting though because
01:53:26.200
anybody could do this right glenn you can go back and look at through american history and you know
01:53:29.940
what pretty every basically every person alive in the 1700s and 1800s are going to look racist by
01:53:35.980
today's standard it's an easy it's not a parlor trick that takes any ability right and it's not
01:53:41.680
there's no ability to look back at a song and say hey wow well what did that songwriter do wrong in
01:53:48.440
their life that should show uh you know that the person who likes the song is racist that's not not
01:53:54.440
that all that interesting nor is it all that difficult and i i thought you know you're going back
01:53:58.840
hundreds of years that's one thing what if you just go back a couple of decades right that would
01:54:02.260
be you should be much more aligned with positive values just a couple decades ago and it made me
01:54:07.720
think i wonder what jalen brown's favorite artist is and luckily gq just happened to ask him just that
01:54:14.740
listen right now i'm gonna go with tupac today oh tupac okay all eyes on me oh good because i feel
01:54:25.840
like yeah the tupac energy is relevant so i feel like tupac he's definitely one of the people i look
01:54:31.960
up to everything he accomplished in the short 25 years of life definitely something to try to follow
01:54:37.260
and try to chase so oh okay so something that's interesting um because are we talking about the
01:54:42.820
same guy someone to look up to the guy who was convicted of molesting a teenager that that's the guy
01:54:48.460
who you're looking up to i mean you're praising him quote everything he accomplished in his 25 years of
01:54:55.120
life the guy who not only molested a teenager but then loaned her out to his friends who she said
01:55:02.300
set upon me like animals and when he was being sentenced the justice uh daniel fitzgerald said
01:55:08.520
quote this was an act of brutal violence against a helpless woman in the me too era it's okay you're
01:55:15.580
gonna get criticized the national anthem but you're gonna say that tupac the guy who uh went out and
01:55:21.460
said uh who molested a teenager who had all sorts of uh criminal uh accusations against him throughout
01:55:27.820
his life and you said it's something that he you should quote definitely something to try and follow
01:55:33.480
that is that is what's okay it's not okay to go back and look at our history you're gonna call the
01:55:39.580
entire nation racist but praise a man who was convicted of molesting a teenage girl and we're gonna all
01:55:50.260
give you praise during the me too era for saying it wow that is not it's not even a double standard i
01:55:55.860
don't know what that is glenn it's it's uh it's a lot more insanity it's insanity completely insane it is
01:56:02.160
it's schizophrenic uh behavior and the behavior of an insane nation and a nation that is committing
0.53
01:56:11.120
suicide that's exactly what it is thanks uh stew let me tell you about our sponsor it's life lock in

uh looks like uh we are just minutes uh from a massive explosion in beirut and i mean massive i've
01:58:19.880
never seen anything like it uh it looked it's it's it there's no indication that it is i'm not saying
01:58:25.660
that it is but it looked almost like a hydrogen or a nuclear explosion um it exploded there seemed to
01:58:33.000
be two explosions uh explodes and then it just becomes this fireball um it was just a a few blocks
01:58:41.540
away from parliament uh they they say now it was near the port so it could have been a chemical plant
01:58:50.580
are you reading now that it was a fireworks plant or something places are reporting it i mean i don't
01:58:55.560
know if that's true but they're saying fireworks uh but could have been a fireworks plant um i mean
01:59:00.040
it is i've never seen anything like it no i know uh i've really never seen one like that before again
01:59:05.160
it's not a you know i know you said it wasn't a nuclear weapon but i mean it's not but it does it
01:59:09.520
is just to give you the scale of like it is a it absolutely vaporizes this building i mean it's not
01:59:15.600
like a normal it yeah it blew it blew an entire block apart and there's tons of video of it by the way
01:59:23.480
because it seems like there was a an explosion beforehand so a lot of people pointed their
01:59:27.520
cameras toward it and so there's tons of uh of phone video of this thing uh you can see it on
01:59:33.500
twitter i just tweeted one of them but they're all it's all over the place now uh really really
01:59:37.700
shattered it says it's a shattered windows miles away um and it could have been if there was a fire
01:59:46.200
in this building before maybe it was something like a chemical factory or a fireworks factory but i've
01:59:53.020
just never seen anything like it um but that's you know that that is the uh black tom explosion of
01:59:59.600
1918 the first real terrorist uh attack on america uh of any scale it was buried by the wilson
02:00:08.640
progressive machine uh but it was the germans came in and they they blew up a munitions factory and i
0.81
02:00:15.820
imagine it was a little like this uh happened at night it was blamed on the capitalists but it was
02:00:20.880
actually the germans that were trying to stop us from sending munitions over to uh our allies england
02:00:27.300
etc etc and um uh it it blew out windows it was right by the statue of liberty and it blew out windows
02:00:36.660
all across manhattan and it registered uh in uh baltimore as an earthquake i mean it was it was probably a lot
02:00:46.960
like this uh so i don't know what was in that uh so far we don't have any indication but i've do we
02:00:54.620
have the video are we on blaze tv do we happen to have any of the video or we have the audio listen to
02:01:01.220
this thing oh it's that second explosion that is just remarkable it explodes listen to it it's rumbling
02:01:16.800
from something and then it explodes and then it has a second explosion that's there's first
02:01:23.980
that's the second and that one looks like it's uh you know it's again it's not but it looks like a
02:01:32.980
nuclear explosion and the beirut has been rocked today wow i mean there's a new i mean there's all
02:01:40.540
sorts of video on it if you want to see it but man it i mean you're right it blows up an entire it
02:01:46.000
levels a block visually i can't even imagine how many people got caught up in that that this looks
02:01:50.860
terrible pray for peace pray for peace pray for peace
