00:00:15.700
So now we can pretend that everything is normal for two days
00:00:28.180
We're going to go try to spray some water on some of these fires that are burning.
00:00:48.840
you have a choice between two different fire departments.
00:00:51.060
The first fire department will get to your house in 45 minutes
00:00:54.420
because they'll go, nah, it's probably not really a fire.
00:01:06.700
but you call them and you're like, hey, my house is on fire.
00:01:17.540
Now, because our alarms are pretty much all the same and they all go off and 911 is alerted,
00:01:24.760
that's when they're like, probably not really anything going on in the house.
00:01:31.680
SimpliSafe is the one that is calling and they're like, no, no, no.
00:01:44.960
Why wouldn't you give yourself an advantage of having only, you know,
00:01:48.400
seven minutes of somebody breaking into your house and then catching the guy?
00:01:55.080
It's catching the person because it could be a woman or a big golden butterfly.
00:02:04.280
However, that person might identify or non-person might identify.
00:02:12.960
And in the world of tomorrow, probably comfort them and say, you know what?

If you spell it with a Y and it doesn't take you there, then SimpliSafe should probably,
00:02:45.560
there's probably a cyber squatter that is like, I've got the Y.
00:03:03.060
Just my look told you that I was asking what is happening?
00:03:05.920
Yes, that is exactly what I was saying in my head.
00:03:11.040
I guess I'm in a good mood because yesterday, I got to, this has never happened to me before.
00:03:19.740
Yesterday, I was going home and as I'm leaving the office, they said, okay, don't forget Bill O'Reilly tomorrow.
00:03:41.040
I asked somebody else and they said, no, it's Thursday.
00:03:47.260
I get into bed with my wife and we're setting the alarm clock.
00:03:55.900
Like, yeah, don't you feel like it was Thursday on Monday?
00:04:01.180
And I'm like, for some strange reason, no, this is the first time in my life that I've screwed that up.
00:04:07.320
Usually it's Wednesday and they're like, and you're like, oh, tomorrow's Friday.
00:04:21.880
May I suggest that everyone takes two weeks off every other week.
00:04:27.400
So in other words, you come back for a week, take it because next week, it's not going to be like this next week.
00:04:39.480
So take I want to make sure I understand the advice.
00:04:48.840
It's like, I mean, yes, we'll be like France, but we'll have that moment of joy on a Friday morning going, I can't believe it.
00:05:08.700
Let's I'm just want to go down to the news because we have Rabbi Lappin on today.
00:05:13.080
He's got some you want to talk about good insight on Tlaib and Omar being banned from Israel.
00:05:25.440
But this is going to be it's going to be really interesting.
00:05:35.780
You know, the Israeli law has perspective on it.
00:05:40.080
And the Israeli law says that they shouldn't be able to come in.
00:05:44.860
And so what we're asking for a special privilege for Ilhan Omar and Rashid Tlaib.
00:05:51.420
I mean, I guess Tlaib's getting it now because she's going to go visit her grandmother, which
00:05:58.060
But still, like they act as if it's like this crazy idea that Donald Trump had last week.
00:06:02.580
It was a law passed in the country that if you support the BDS movement, you can't
00:06:09.400
I don't know how they think they can get away with that.
00:06:11.620
Look, we want to make sure that nothing from Israel is ever brought into our country.
00:06:24.040
And the media just can't be pleased with no matter.
00:06:27.700
First, he says Rashida Tlaib should go back to her country and they get all mad.
00:06:41.080
Now, have you seen how Patrick Byrne from Overstock is being treated?
00:06:47.980
Because he was on Fox going, yeah, I got some news for you.
00:06:52.320
I was strangely kind of in a Hitchcock movie kind of way.
00:06:57.200
Found myself in the middle of, you know, both the Clinton scandal and also the Trump-Russia
00:07:08.740
And it's going to be a big scandal when it comes out.
00:07:11.420
But the good thing is, the attorney general's on it, and I've already given my testimony
00:07:18.720
And the New York Times and everybody else is like, this guy's crazy.
00:07:31.120
First of all, he's not saying anything on either side.
00:07:36.580
He's like, look, I'm telling you, the FBI is corrupt.
00:07:44.120
And so the New York Times is saying that he's crazy because he's inserting himself into this
00:07:48.620
Well, he had some crazy romance with this Russian agent.
00:07:58.100
Eric Metaxas, well, he might have DMed me on this.
00:08:02.700
No, I think he posted last night on Twitter, and he was like, I know her.
00:08:09.160
This is one of the greatest miscarriages of justice I've seen.
00:08:23.320
They found that she just didn't register as a foreign agent.
00:08:26.440
But when you say agent, you're like, bum, ba-da-dum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, ba-da-dum, bum.
00:08:34.300
Yeah, I mean, I guess if you're an investor, you just don't like any uncertainty, right?
00:08:39.880
So if there's a new thing coming out and you're not sure how it's going to play out, maybe
00:08:44.800
But that's a bizarre, because there's, as of now, there's nothing that would indicate
00:08:52.400
He actually was acting very responsibly if what has been reported is true.
00:08:58.180
Yeah, I think he's really responsible, like uber responsible.
00:09:02.840
Yeah, it's the stuff that, you know, frankly, it's the stuff they yelled at Donald Trump
00:09:08.300
It is what, every time you're like, well, okay, yeah, maybe they should go to prison.
00:09:17.560
So he calls the FBI, does exactly what all of us are screaming at our televisions that
00:09:24.360
He actually does it, and the New York Times is like, he's crazy.
00:09:27.480
All right, young Americans warming up to communist China.
00:09:35.820
Sometimes, sometimes, now I am one of these guys who always has, I have real hope for the
00:09:48.380
I see them as, you know, waking up, and then I observe them, and that's the other thing.
00:09:52.920
Like, I actually observe them, honestly, and so I have the opposite opinion.
00:09:55.820
Right, and some days, like today, I'm feeling like the old, get up my lawn guy.
00:10:08.820
What are you, a fan of their concentration camps?
00:10:24.800
Yeah, they take care of all the burial expenses.
00:10:27.400
For you and your whole family, if you're lucky enough.
00:10:32.460
Did you hear about the artist that painted Bill Clinton in a dress?
00:10:39.700
In his apartment in New York, which apartment is a weird word for what that was.
00:10:44.900
It was one of the biggest residences in the entire city.
00:10:47.400
But he had a painting of Bill Clinton in a blue dress, and some found that to be a little
00:10:54.880
Well, he was wearing red heels and a blue dress, like a Monica Lewinsky blue dress, and
00:11:00.100
he was kind of, you know, slung over a chair in the White House.
00:11:04.200
And when that came out, somebody took a picture of that, and they were like, okay, that's
00:11:17.120
I mean, you know, but some people do have dogs playing poker.
00:11:26.800
No, I'm not saying that that's not weird, but certain things hit a cultural line in which
00:11:32.700
Yes, like people have also have, you know, singing fish on their walls.
00:11:40.980
I was in, when I was in Australia, I mean, the days go on forever.
00:11:46.100
And so we would go to, like, these flea market, you know, things.
00:11:49.980
They have animals, you know, heads of animals on walls, you know, these flea market places,
00:11:57.640
You're like, whoa, I think that's a cow to most people over here, but I've never seen
00:12:04.820
And so I was walking through, and I'm like, how can I get this on the commercial flight?
00:12:10.380
Would it be weird if I was, like, taking this animal?
00:12:15.440
But I just wanted, my son looked at me and said, why do you want that?
00:12:19.400
And I said, because I want to make, like, a little automatic mouth that I can, you know,
00:12:25.760
I want to be able to have, like, a big animal head.
00:12:29.680
Like, I have this, like, big, huge buffalo head.
00:12:34.820
And there's part of me that, I mean, I don't want to do it because it feels, I mean, it
00:12:43.440
I don't know, but, you know, hey, I had this buffalo head.
00:12:50.180
So I kind of feel bad about it, but not that bad.
00:12:53.160
If I was married to somebody who still enjoyed my sense of humor, it'd already be a talking
00:13:00.100
And I'd be able to turn music on, and it would look like it was singing, or, you know, I
00:13:04.880
could have, like, a Mr. Microphone where I'd be like, hey, welcome to the living room.
00:13:09.740
You know, something where I could freak people out.
00:13:12.320
I will say you do own a giant, real polar bear.
00:13:20.360
A real polar bear that has been, that died in, like, 1960-something.
00:13:30.700
Do we have anybody in the audience that could make that polar bear so its hips swing?
00:13:44.620
It would be a disgrace to do it to a bear that had been killed in 1971, and is like, you
00:13:52.180
don't do that to bears, but we did back in the old days.
00:14:01.320
Do I have not enough reference for a polar bear that died?
00:14:08.840
Have you ever seen people who, like, I was, again, Australia, it's weird, but they're a
00:14:19.340
It's a place that had all the heads on the wall.
00:14:21.640
It wasn't like a sign that says, we have exotic heads on the wall.
00:14:27.440
Well, if there's exotic heads on the wall, you don't need a sign that says we have exotic
00:14:33.640
There was a lot of them to not say, you know, not have that as a calling card.
00:14:38.180
You know, you're looking in the phone book, and you're like, where can I buy exotic heads?
00:14:46.220
But there was this creepy cat, a cat, like a house cat.
00:14:51.640
That had been stuffed, like it was, like, walking and looking at, like, meow.
00:15:08.560
If my dog died, Victor died, Uno died, Ella died, you know, I'm not going to stuff them
00:15:13.620
and then, like, look, he can talk now, too, and sing songs in his hip swivel.
00:15:20.200
This is a bear that was dead before you were born.
00:15:29.920
But, I mean, you already own it and have used it for a prop a hundred times.
00:15:37.800
If you could animate a real polar bear life size.
00:15:44.180
So when his hips swivel, he's, like, doing the hula.
00:15:49.200
Is there anyone in the audience that can think about how to chop this bear up?
00:15:57.780
I'd be pissed if you, like, chopped it up and you're like, yeah, it didn't work.
00:16:03.020
Yeah, you've got to have some expertise in this field.
00:16:06.460
I don't know what credentials you would have to have to go, no, I can do this.
00:16:12.500
Well, not with a polar bear or any other animal like this, but.
00:16:16.320
Things are going too well in this company lately.
00:16:18.000
It's time to blow a couple million dollars on a dancing bear.
00:16:20.740
Well, I don't know how you're crazy about a couple million.
00:16:34.400
You could even put a bunch of other fish inside if that's, if that would help you.
00:16:39.640
Look, if you'd like to take this on, it's like, I made the bear.
00:16:47.180
Who else has a hula dancing polar bear from 1971?
00:17:01.520
There's got to be, like, an enterprising taxidermist who's like,
00:17:22.500
Imagine floating in a historic museum filled with artifacts to help explain the founding
00:17:30.380
And imagine that you are there with some of the greatest people to explain this.
00:17:34.560
Rabbi Lappin, David Barton, Tim Ballard, Bill O'Reilly.
00:17:38.920
And then you're still trapped on that floating museum with us.
00:17:47.440
We're going to Athens, which is Greece, strangely.
00:17:54.740
We're going to, well, I mean, you know, hey, you want to go on vacation?
00:18:05.380
And we're almost definitely going to be let in.
00:18:09.460
I think everybody on the ship probably will be let in unless your last name is Omar.
00:18:19.380
They're offering a $300 discount to sell it out.
00:18:23.660
It would be a funny way for her to get in to book a cabin on this cruise.
00:18:27.980
There's 3,000 Glenn Beck listeners on this ship already.
00:18:33.200
Maybe she'll convince us of some socialism and stuff.
00:18:40.300
Imagine floating around for like 10 days with all of us and Omar.
00:18:59.760
She's like, we don't have to pay for the airfare.
00:19:43.580
The Bill Clinton dressed in heels in a dress painting.
00:19:47.740
The deal is, is that the artist, she just, she's watching the news and she's like, whoa,
00:19:57.640
I mean, first of all, you're the artist of a really creepy painting.
00:20:03.020
And I'm surprised that like this, this sex fiend had that in his house.
00:20:10.420
Where else do you think it's going to be hanging?
00:20:12.640
Who else is going to be hanging unless they have dogs with poker and it's kind of funny?
00:20:21.820
Only a really creepy sex fiend would have that.
00:20:27.040
So she's watching the news and she's like, wait a minute, that's my painting.
00:20:35.760
She, she did it when she was in New York art school and the, the painting remained with
00:20:45.880
And it's apparently he gave a lot of money, I don't know, for a building or something at
00:20:57.620
So they gave him this painting, probably put it in a nice frame and made it into a big
00:21:10.180
I'll give you a building for that beautiful painting.
00:21:14.020
At least if you're the artist, you can, when you die, you can know that you brought a
00:21:22.400
You'd be like, that's, he's got my book in his library.
00:21:31.880
If you're a gun owner and an enthusiast, yes, I am too.
00:21:37.380
And I know the two of us take owning our and carrying our firearms seriously.
00:21:45.740
And you don't carry a gun unless you're actually going to be, you know, practicing with it.
00:21:51.240
If you're actually going to go to the range and you're going to be responsible.
00:21:57.120
The USCCA knows that, and they provide life-saving education, training for their membership.
00:22:04.340
They're fully dedicated to educating, training, and legally protecting responsible gun owners
00:22:10.480
Well, they're, you know, giving away pairs of guns.
00:22:20.680
In today's world, I am so happy to say, hey, you want a gun?
00:22:24.020
All you have to do is text Glenn, G-L-E-N-N, to the number 87222.
00:22:31.260
Text that now to the number 87222, and you might win a brand new gun from the USCCA.

00:23:59.220
So we're just talking about my trip to Australia.
00:24:00.880
And, you know, I was there to, hang on just a second.
00:24:10.160
And, you know, that we're both, it was a mother and a daughter.
00:24:29.360
And the mother, I mean, the mother thought she's dead.
00:24:57.800
I said, other than big, you know, big, deadly everything, you know, it was good.
00:25:06.040
And, you know, it is, you know, it's worth a drive, too.
00:25:16.880
If I'm in driving distance, I'm going to go to Pittsburgh.
00:25:22.360
But you're not flying around the world to see Pittsburgh.
00:25:25.240
And it's the same with Sydney, even with like the opera house there.
00:25:28.480
The opera house is everybody says it's the only thing anyone knows.
00:25:32.680
It's like I was on the plane and I wanted to say to the stewardess because I was flying,
00:25:43.460
You know, in Sydney, I'm only there for a couple of days.
00:25:48.120
And I I practically said it with the opera house.
00:25:51.140
Don't you have anything else but the damn opera house?
00:26:00.100
Again, Pittsburgh is a great city, but a 15 hour plane flight and then being 15 hour time
00:26:16.500
It really it was like why the architecture up close is, you know, the white thing.
00:26:24.900
So, but I mean, that's why it's one of the great building.
00:26:38.640
Because like you could go see a building because it's, you know, it looks really cool.
00:26:42.220
And then you go inside and there's something amazing here that you go inside.
00:26:47.540
I flew to the other side of the planet and then didn't go in.
00:26:54.440
There's a you got to go buy a ticket and you go inside.
00:26:59.640
We're like, do you have like a tour or anything?
00:27:02.600
And they're like, no, but the ticket counters over there.
00:27:10.500
It's the only building that anyone knows in the entire continent.
00:27:13.060
What if Placido Domingo is there and he's going to get you?
00:27:29.240
The first little sale kind of thing is a restaurant.
00:27:36.520
And then next to that is like a smaller opera house.
00:27:39.720
They just soon they'll just be having the opera in the restaurant.
00:28:05.760
I want to see him roaming the streets in Australia.
00:28:14.160
And everybody's like, oh, good thing you're leaving now.
00:28:17.720
And I'm like, oh, maybe there's something exciting of the cold front here.
00:28:49.480
I would have liked to see them just in the grass jumping.
00:28:52.140
I don't know where that Australia is, but they hide it from the tourists.
00:28:56.960
And so I go and, you know, I'm looking at these kangaroos, which I hear are mean.
00:29:07.200
Then why were the kangaroos and the wallabies, which I don't know the difference between them.
00:29:21.800
And you open it up and you're just with the kangaroos.
00:29:37.780
You're like, I've hopped around here my whole life.
00:30:04.360
Has no kid in Australia been like, I'm going to pet a nice furry little animal.
00:30:18.960
I'm always amazed at how much more cautious we are about everything in America than they
00:30:25.140
It seems like they always take less precautions for people in other places.
00:30:34.320
So my sister lives, you know, kind of by Yellowstone.
00:30:39.960
And so she has friends that, you know, run stores right at the gates of Yellowstone.
00:30:45.780
And people actually will come into the stores and they'll say, oh, what time do they let
00:31:04.940
And if you're driving around and you see the bear, it's not like, oh, he's used to bananas
00:31:21.980
It's not like, let's go on the Disney Yellowstone Park ride.
00:31:30.880
I mean, around the world, you go and you see pictures of people traveling and they're
00:31:39.960
I mean, one of my favorite memories as a kid was going to Action Park in New Jersey,
00:31:46.180
And I have these like visions of being there like at like 11 years old, standing on this
00:31:50.480
cliff with no attendant, just pausing people from jumping off of it.
00:31:54.900
And then below you, there's just like 20 children and you're just jumping off a cliff in between
00:32:04.860
They have like a loop water slide, which is very famous.
00:32:10.660
People couldn't make it all the way around the loop, but like legitimately, it's true.
00:32:15.300
You get halfway up and then you just slam down.
00:32:18.820
First of all, they started just putting dummies down, like, you know, a 150 pound dummy.
00:32:24.560
They just like slide the thing down to see it would go.
00:32:34.600
And because they did, this isn't like a thing where they went to like a firm where they designed
00:32:39.360
the, you know, the physics to make sure people could get around the upside down loop on a
00:32:43.880
water slide, they just built it and started trying.
00:32:48.200
And so they put, they put the, the first one they put in, they put a dummy.
00:32:51.780
Doesn't that show how deregulated we used to be?
00:33:02.840
There were definitely several deaths at this part.
00:33:08.840
But doesn't that also say something about the rest of us?
00:33:16.080
You go to the, the Native American side of the Grand Canyon.
00:33:26.560
And you're walking up to it and you're like, well, this seems unsafe, but there's no fence
00:33:33.560
And then you see the sign that says, don't slip, no safety nets.
00:33:47.480
He's like, he told me, he said, we're, you guys have problems all the time.
00:33:52.980
We don't have people falling over the cliff here because we treat you like you're smart
00:34:00.340
And on the other side, it's all fenced off and that's where people fall.
00:34:03.720
Because they think, oh, I can get over this, this wall.
00:34:08.300
And if I can, you know, sit on top of this fence, they wouldn't let me do that.
00:34:16.960
Did you get mad at the Native American for not recognizing you were also part of the
00:34:31.440
The first dummy they put down, they put it down.
00:34:33.980
It goes around the loop, comes out the other side.
00:34:42.580
So eventually they started getting the dummies through it.
00:34:45.860
Then they started paying employees like an extra 20 bucks or a case of beer to test it.
00:34:51.360
And so they would go down and some made it, you know, some got banged up, but you know,
00:35:00.000
If you picture it about to go upside down, didn't quite make it, came back down.
00:35:03.980
Well, then you're at the bottom of a very long, narrow tube with no way to escape.
00:35:10.180
So they had to build an escape hatch at the bottom of, of the slide.
00:35:22.600
No, you just slide hot dogs right down the slide.
00:35:25.900
Now, a couple of days down there, it's going to start because you're in a puddle there.
00:35:31.800
Eventually they did actually, I physically with my own eyes saw this slide.
00:35:36.120
It was not open the day I was there, but I actually saw it.
00:35:39.000
And it, um, uh, they opened it for like two days and then people were not making it around
00:35:53.020
I mean, they built an entire water slide in the middle of the park and they just like
00:35:56.620
had no, they just kind of were like, I don't know if we'd make it that high.
00:36:05.540
But I mean, the whole, the whole, they had an Alpine slide, which was, you know, a giant
00:36:10.560
like bobsled like slide that you'd go from the top of the mountain, like on a bobsled,
00:36:17.440
It was just you and your shorts as a little kid on a little tiny scooter going down this
00:36:23.380
I remember I fell off of it at one point, like as many people did.
00:36:30.120
So like you'd slide on that and you'd have no hair and just a giant like, and what did
00:36:42.500
That is, they're taking away our ability as parents to go, well, dummy, what did you expect
00:36:51.780
Somewhere in America, within the sound of my voice, is a man who has always known the
00:37:02.860
value of a dollar, whether it was going to buy food to put in his kid's mouse or the
00:37:08.580
collection plate at church or toward the purchase of boots that he wears on his feet.
00:37:13.340
He has always been aware of how hard he had to work to get that dollar and just what it
00:37:22.820
That's why the boots he wears are to Covis boots.
00:37:26.040
He's a man who appreciated those times when quality and comfort can exist right alongside
00:37:36.480
They're all handmade from the just the best leathers.
00:37:42.940
There's something when you're wearing your pair of to Covis, and I know because I wear
00:37:46.920
to Covis boots, there's something about them that just, I don't know, it roots you.
00:37:52.800
You know, you're kind of standing in a room and you're thinking, well, I don't know, should
00:37:56.740
And you look down at the boots and you're like, no, we shouldn't do that.
00:38:01.000
To Covis believes in the handshake kind of business, the kind where your word is your
00:38:05.840
That's why they have free shipping and returns as well to Covis boots.
00:38:09.980
You're going to love them as much as I love mine.
00:38:15.300
That's T-E-C-O-V-A-S dot com slash back to Covis dot com slash back.
00:38:26.520
Mr. Bill O'Reilly is coming up in just a second.
00:38:28.820
He has the the look at the news of the week himself, which is always entertaining.
00:38:36.880
I do want to talk about the, quote, gay penguins from the.
00:38:44.580
Do we have the audio from CNN of the gay penguins?
00:38:53.500
Now, I don't know if these are actual gay penguins.
00:38:57.440
And we should point out that they don't have the gay penguin accent.
00:39:06.540
But she's speaking a foreign language, so I have no idea what she's saying.
00:39:09.560
But this this couple, I mean, it seems to be like my two dads where they show that could
00:39:18.900
They're they're showing these they're showing these penguins and they've been trying to
00:39:24.540
like, you know, sit on a rock, try to hatch rocks, et cetera.
00:39:27.880
So they were given an actual penguin egg and they're there's they're both sitting on
00:39:32.100
it, you know, taking turns, which is what penguins do.
00:39:42.220
I mean, it's just like penguins who are in a zoo.
00:39:46.160
They don't like have a lot of dating opportunities, I think.
00:39:52.100
I guess the father or the mother, I don't know if they're both girls or I don't know.
00:40:05.560
But by the way, this happened on Parks and Rec, the show, they married two penguins
00:40:13.180
And now here it is in real life actually happening.
00:40:16.340
I don't know who's going to get in trouble for this one.
00:40:18.840
I'm a little concerned the way you just talked about that.
00:40:26.620
We're going to need you to be six months off and come back and beg for our forgiveness
00:40:41.380
First, I want to talk to you about if your monthly budget is going towards credit card
00:40:46.400
bills, mainly you got a problem and it's not necessarily a spending problem.
00:40:55.160
Especially if you miss a payment or something and they jack them up.
00:40:59.200
Interest rates on credit cards are just through the roof and you're never going to pay them
00:41:07.140
So may I suggest do the fiscally responsible thing.
00:41:10.480
Get in touch with American Financing right now and get a consolidation loan.
00:41:14.820
They can talk to you about it within 10 minutes.
00:41:18.480
You'll be on your way to being able to control your debt so it's not controlling you.
00:41:28.540
Whether you're looking for a new home, getting out of the adjustable mortgage, which I highly
00:41:33.720
recommend and getting into a fixed rate, or if you want a consolidation loan and just
00:41:37.960
get out of debt and put yourself on the right track of financial stability, I want you to
00:41:59.560
Mr. Bill O'Reilly and his look at what happened this week.
00:42:22.060
Wouldn't it be great if everyone you did business with throughout your day could be consistently
00:42:30.920
You didn't have to worry about the people that, you know, you had dealings with, you know,
00:42:38.280
You know, nothing to say about, you know, being competent in the first place.
00:42:41.620
Well, that's why we have realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:42:45.800
They're not only honest, but they're competent.
00:43:02.740
Well, you can gain that trust by, you know, using them.
00:43:06.180
Or you can gain that, but you have to use them first.
00:43:09.700
And then, wow, I didn't shouldn't have trusted that person.
00:43:12.680
Or you can come to us because we've already done all of the vetting.
00:43:23.320
So you can say that's a real estate agent I trust to get the job done, put you in the
00:43:28.160
right neighborhood for the right house in the right school district at the right price
00:43:33.220
or to sell your house quickly and for the most amount of money.
00:43:58.500
First of all, you can explain why when I was filling in for two weeks, you didn't bother
00:44:09.080
And I thought you were like putting the nose up into the air.
00:44:13.660
All I was thinking about was doing an interview with you for an hour all week.
00:44:17.840
And then both weeks I was told you were not available.
00:44:32.620
He was on a big plane over to Australia, correct?
00:44:36.540
I mean, I don't have a copy of the book to read.
00:45:05.460
I know you like the book because you would not have read it had it been boring or not engaged.
00:45:39.380
I think I Facebooked at LAX, waiting for my red out of Sydney, about halfway through Bill O'Reilly's tome on Trump out in September.
00:45:51.160
Tough questions, even uncomfortable answers, but fair.
00:45:54.900
And a very different look at the real Donald Trump.
00:46:03.480
And you did the best you can with a guy who's constantly watching TV over your shoulder.
00:46:11.620
I mean, he was not engaged in this process at all.
00:46:14.420
He's not a I'm going to my high school reunion type of guy.
00:46:19.900
But I thought the stories you told about him, the perspective that you gave, I really think it, you know, if anyone is, I wrote another Facebook post or something and said, if anyone in the media is actually, if they really want to understand Donald Trump and take a different look and go, well, wait, now, wait a minute.
00:46:47.440
But it honestly, it honestly, without sugarcoating him, without, you know, avoiding the tough things, you looked at him and you brought a perspective to him that I never thought.
00:47:01.600
I, you know, I just, I thought, you know, I realize I praise from you and I hope your prediction comes true.
00:47:16.640
Whether you like Donald Trump or not, he's a president of the United States.
00:47:19.980
If you love your country and you're engaged in the process of evaluating the president fairly, then you need to know the entire story.
00:47:33.120
You're either getting, we love them, we love them, we love them, or we hate them, we hate them, we hate them.
00:47:37.780
And that, as we have discussed, is based on money.
00:47:41.560
There is ideology involved as well, but it's a primary money play.
00:47:45.280
So I said to myself, you know, I had a killing book.
00:47:48.540
But we said, all right, we'll, we'll postpone that.
00:47:51.780
I'll write this Trump book because it's a history book.
00:47:55.160
And we need this in America at this time in history.
00:47:59.760
So were you, were you, I mean, I don't know how you, well, you love confrontation.
00:48:13.920
You know, I grew up in an alcoholic family and it's like, you know, mommy and daddy are fighting.
00:48:19.120
Um, uh, but you don't mind it, but you, you confronted him with things when you're, when
00:48:26.940
you're leading up to, you know, what you're about to ask him, you're, you're thinking,
00:48:37.620
And then you wrote some things about it and said, look, here's what some people say.
00:48:44.560
I think it's probably this or that, but we don't really know for sure.
00:48:50.580
And you're thinking, okay, how does he like Bill O'Reilly?
00:48:54.940
Well, I'll tell you an interesting story in a moment, but, um, two things about it.
00:49:05.260
So when you have somebody, uh, commenting on the president or you, he's saying it himself,
00:49:11.180
the words are true and the words were, um, confirmed by me.
00:49:16.320
So for example, Don jr, his son, I thought was very good in giving an insight into Donald
00:49:21.900
Trump, the parent, but I had to check a lot of the stuff that Don Trump jr told me.
00:49:27.940
I thought he was very, very strong in the book, but the confrontational aspect of the book
00:49:33.500
I did ask Donald Trump about his father and some of the things that his father did about
00:49:40.020
some of the things that he did, Donald Trump himself, but I didn't do it in a confrontational
00:49:46.360
And that's why the pages about Megan Kelly and her debate.
00:49:50.260
And I thought that was one of the strongest parts of the book, because we got the true
00:49:53.820
story that's never been told about that ambush on Trump and the woman that must've been
00:50:00.280
Cause I didn't, you were underwriting that like, give me a pen.
00:50:10.420
The book comes out by the way in a few, one more thing.
00:50:12.900
While you were gone, I was in Trump's presence at a fundraiser in the Hamptons.
00:50:25.120
So I went as a reporter and I was the only national reporter there, the campaign band,
00:50:32.760
everybody else, nobody else could go to this fundraiser, which raised 5 million bucks for
00:50:38.460
I sat right in front of him when he gave his 40 minute speech.
00:50:56.660
And he, and about 10 minutes of the speech is directed to me.
00:51:03.840
Um, but I think that he respects me, um, because he knows that it's not a sugarcoated deal.
00:51:09.760
And he actually told the audience that, that after some of the interviews that I did with
00:51:15.780
And then his wife would say, what are you talking about?
00:51:32.700
I don't know about the rest of us, but, um, uh, thank you.
00:51:46.960
I mean, I'm down to you and we're not really friends.
00:51:51.660
You know, you should go on a website, friendsitrust.com.
00:51:55.620
So, uh, so Bill, let's, uh, let's start with, let's start with Philadelphia.
00:51:59.460
Cause that's kind of a story that kind of, uh, you know, went by the wayside.
00:52:03.340
And I think it is a crazy story, crazy story about the suspect, uh, that now is in custody.
00:52:15.140
The people from Philadelphia, some of the people in Philadelphia were at some point, you know,
00:52:20.760
mocking the police as they're in this shootout.
00:52:26.320
There's four or five things to this, to the story.
00:52:29.480
Number one, Barack Obama made a very big show out of telling the American people that most
00:52:42.680
The narcotics industry in America is the most violent industry we have, which is why the mafia
00:52:49.200
chieftains in the fifties and sixties wouldn't even deal with it, even though they could have
00:53:05.140
And the, uh, the warrant, uh, for if you please execute a warrant, he starts shooting at them.
00:53:12.400
You know how many times he's convicted of violent felonies, including gun crimes.
00:53:16.360
He's serving two years here, two and a half years there said dangerous man.
00:53:21.440
He should have been away for 30 or 40, but no, you can't do that because then if you put
00:53:26.840
somebody in jail for that long, you're persecuting people of color.
00:53:32.960
So you're against the prison reform that the president just did.
00:53:37.500
If it's very specific, but I have said for years that if you commit a crime with a firearm
00:53:43.500
in this country, you go to federal prison for 10 years, mandatory first conviction that
00:53:53.620
How many, how many decades do I have to say this?
00:53:59.540
If you're a criminal using a gun in a crime, it becomes a federal crime and you have a mandatory
00:54:09.940
I get so angry because the rest of this gun stuff is BS.
00:54:18.480
You put the criminals with guns in prison for 10 years.
00:54:24.000
You know, it's funny that you say that because if you have, if you have a firearm, you are
00:54:29.940
caught with a firearm in New Jersey and you don't have the bullets, you know, locked in
00:54:36.880
your trunk and, you know, and the, and the trigger underneath your seat in the car and locked
00:54:45.040
I mean, they throw you to jail, throw you in jail.
00:54:48.340
I think it's in New York and New Jersey for 10 years for carrying a firearm, uh, without
00:54:58.680
Leave, leave the law abiding people who want to protect themselves alone.
00:55:04.620
And concentrate on the guy in Philadelphia who's selling heroin and carries around an AR-15
00:55:15.140
It, it, look, Beck, you know, and I know we live in a corrupt world and this is as corrupt
00:55:27.360
I want to get your, your, your thoughts on Epstein and what happened on that, uh, in
00:55:32.180
just a second, we come back with more from Mr. Bill O'Reilly.
00:55:40.640
Did you know that, uh, your fear of heights or the ability to, um, match musical pitch that
00:55:49.380
they, they have the same thing in common that, you know, your cheek dimples do your ice cream
00:55:55.000
flavor, uh, favor, uh, preference, the frequency in which you get bitten by mosquitoes.
00:56:00.440
All of those things have the same thing in common.

DNA all determined by your genetics, all determined by your mosquito thing.
00:56:12.740

The United States of Trump, the new Bill O'Reilly book, it's released September 24th.
00:57:53.180
You can find it on Amazon, uh, or anywhere else that they're schlepping these things.
00:58:01.340
Bill Epstein, his neck was broken in several places after he hung himself with paper sheets.
00:58:14.900
I talked to a New York city coroner about this and, uh, this is obviously the biggest topic
00:58:21.620
of discussion, uh, among the coroners in the city and the consensus is, and, and that
00:58:29.740
And this is absolutely could have happened physiologically to this guy.
00:58:35.340
Um, secondly, I walk into my local deli, um, a couple of days ago, I'm besieged by mostly
00:58:43.980
women telling me he was murdered and I have to find out who did it.
00:58:48.540
And I'm looking around going, can I get, can I get my muffin?
00:58:52.620
Um, I mean, it's a popular story and it's one of those stories like the Kennedy assassination
00:58:59.180
where this is going to run wild with this stuff.
00:59:01.760
But I'll tell you from what I know, and I, my sources are pretty good.
00:59:06.000
Nobody could have gotten into that cell to kill him because there are cameras all over
00:59:11.100
And it would have been impossible for that to happen.
00:59:17.700
They say he hung himself, but it basically strangled himself with whatever he had as far as a covering
00:59:26.400
And it absolutely could have physiologically happened.
00:59:29.140
The real story is where the guards brought, because they had to know that this guy, um, was
00:59:36.700
So that has to be investigated by the attorney general bar because it's a federal facility.
00:59:42.980
Um, other than that, I mean, I think people have to step away from the hysteria.
00:59:47.500
I know it's fun and entertaining, um, but I don't think it leaves us anywhere.
00:59:52.400
So speaking of hysteria, uh, this, this, um, this inversion, the yield inversion that happened
01:00:02.020
this week, which the media was only giving half the story.
01:00:06.720
Every recession we've had in the last 50 years has been pointed out by a yield inversion,
01:00:11.720
but there've been several yield inversions that did not lead to a recession.
01:00:19.320
Um, the New York times, Washington post, they want it because they know that the democratic
01:00:25.140
And I think we know enough now, um, there's another debate coming up in three weeks.
01:00:39.020
You've got actually dangerous people running for president there who would put this, you
01:00:44.160
think a recession might come if Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren get elected president,
01:00:49.120
we might have a depression, not a recession, a depression because corporate America would
01:00:57.320
They're going to get the hell out of here with these socialist people.
01:01:03.140
I mean, it would be a flight of capital out of this country.
01:01:10.380
You're looking at a catastrophe and this is fact-based.
01:01:15.940
So, I mean, don't tell me about an inversion that might lead to a recession.
01:01:21.340
The democratic party, if their wishlist were fulfilled, I mean, I'm, I'd be in the Bahamas.
01:01:28.320
I'd be calling you call me in the Bahamas because I'm not staying here with a wealth tax.
01:01:32.720
You pass a federal wealth tax, you come into my house and take my stuff.
01:01:37.520
Well, I think he's in Greenland because Trump's going to buy Greenland, I think, isn't he?
01:01:45.360
First of all, I need to know, you know, when was the last time the kitchen was updated
01:01:53.960
Because, you know, that's where you really drop all your monies on kitchens and bathrooms.
01:02:02.240
Um, it's just another story that gets floated out and I can't tell you who floats it, um,
01:02:13.380
You have to understand that Trump's on vacation this week.
01:02:22.500
He plays real golf, but it's hot and humid and nobody wants to go to Jersey.
01:02:33.820
You know, I was shocked that there, we've tried to buy it twice.
01:02:38.300
I think it was, was it Eisenhower or Truman was the last one.
01:02:46.220
So I don't know what's going on in Denmark, but I think if Trump made them a good offer,
01:02:52.320
You know, I don't know if there's anything that we need from Greenland.
01:03:00.080
It goes a thousand miles, I think, into kind of Russian area.
01:03:06.720
Uh, but you know, is there anything else we can exploit by digging it all up?
01:03:17.260
You know, there are some things in life that is worth their weight in gold.
01:03:26.180
And, you know, look, you spend most of your time away from home, or if you're at home,

01:04:48.240
And I want to talk to you, Bill, about a story that broke yesterday that I think is a totally bogus story.
01:04:57.020
I don't think that they had any intention, really, of even going over to Israel.
01:05:03.100
But Rashida Tlaib and Ilan Omar, who are both the big BDS, you know, spokespeople, they're leading it, leading the charge in Congress.
01:05:15.440
I believe they're both Muslim extremists or front people for Muslim extremists.
01:05:23.140
And they wanted to go over to Israel just to go to Judea and Samaria.
01:05:31.620
And then a quick, just a quick stop at the Temple Mount.
01:05:35.700
And the story is being spun that Donald Trump called up Benjamin Netanyahu and said,
01:05:44.780
He just said, OK, whatever you say, Mr. President, when indeed what they have, they passed a law a while ago where if you're part of or leading the BDS movement,
01:05:57.380
if you are instrumental in that movement, you're not welcome in Israel.
01:06:01.920
So what Benjamin Netanyahu did was just not grant special exception when he did finally grant special exception for Tlaib because she has a grandmother there.
01:06:14.720
And Tlaib was like, well, my grandmother is there and she's really sick.
01:06:18.100
And I don't know if it'll be the last time I ever get to see her this mean country.
01:06:21.780
And then he said, oh, on humanitarian reasons, you can go see your grandmother.
01:06:29.640
I don't think that these guys really wanted to go.
01:06:35.400
And I think Donald Trump wants that fight as well.
01:06:39.560
And he inserted himself because he's trying to paint the Democratic Party.
01:06:46.660
He's trying to make sure that everybody understands the Democratic Party is starting to be led by anti-Semites.
01:06:52.360
Well, first of all, are they going to let you and me in?
01:07:02.280
The last time I was there, I've wanted to go to the Temple Mount every time.
01:07:07.100
And because of who I am, the last time that it came from Benjamin Netanyahu, Mr. Beck, you are not to go to the Temple Mount.
01:07:18.000
Now, I could do things, you know, at the wall, but I was not allowed to go on to the Temple Mount.
01:07:23.720
Me, personally, as a citizen, you can go there if you visit.
01:07:29.660
And the last time I was told not to because it would cause disruption and possibly riots.
01:07:43.360
Obviously, they don't want any problems or any violence.
01:07:46.300
But I think this Tlaib is going to see her grandmother.
01:07:51.420
It's my understanding that this morning she said no.
01:07:56.400
Because it had nothing to do with her wanting to see her grandmother.
01:08:03.620
I just saw a headline that just came across that said she said.
01:08:25.660
Is there anything you want us to bring your grandmother?
01:08:31.560
Bill, isn't this a win-win for all involved here?
01:08:34.340
Because I feel like the squad is very much interested in increasing the profile of the squad.
01:08:45.260
And I would like to ask you as an author of an incredible new book.
01:08:49.400
An incredible new book about Donald Trump that's coming out very soon.
01:08:53.960
It's also great for Donald Trump because there is a huge incentive for Donald Trump to make everyone understand that the squad is the Democratic Party.
01:09:05.240
And if they are the face of the Democratic Party, this is fantastic for Donald Trump.
01:09:08.920
Yeah, and believe me, Donald Trump's not above being petty for a hard time.
01:09:26.280
And that's what they have in common with the president of the United States.
01:09:33.980
And that's what they do to keep themselves in the news cycle.
01:09:37.040
And I'm surprised Ms. Ocasio-Cortez didn't get in on this somehow.
01:09:43.600
Maybe she can water ski past Tel Aviv and wave or something.
01:09:52.640
But after being criticized by backers of a boycott, Ms. Tlaib, too, reversed course on Friday, saying that she would not make the trip after all.
01:10:00.740
Quote, visiting my grandmother under these oppressive conditions stands against everything I believe in.
01:10:09.140
Now, why doesn't she just fly her grandmother to Washington?
01:10:18.480
And by the way, if you think this is a concentration camp, I'm OK.
01:10:23.620
We're going to let you into Auschwitz to visit with your grandmother.
01:10:27.740
You could go visit and then report on what is exactly happening.
01:10:32.660
She doesn't she didn't want to go in the first place.
01:10:40.380
And I reported this on Bill O'Reilly dot com last night.
01:10:43.120
So Ocasio-Cortez is running in 2020 because Congress people have to run every two years.
01:10:49.540
She's already raised two million dollars for her reelection campaign out of the two million.
01:10:57.100
You know how many people in her district donated money?
01:11:19.260
But see, this woman, she doesn't really represent her district.
01:11:23.260
I mean, we've had story after story after story here in New York where she doesn't even have an office.
01:11:33.700
And I don't know whether I said this to you guys, but here is my prediction about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
01:11:41.600
Most likely win because the machine in New York, there's no Republicans, although she will be challenged by a Democrat in the primary.
01:11:48.940
And then after her second term, she will resign and show up on The View.
01:12:06.460
And I didn't think of The View, but I think you're right on The View.
01:12:16.380
And they're sinking because they have, you know, I mean, really, can any human being watch Joy Behar?
01:12:25.720
If you can, please tell me how you get through it.
01:12:33.760
But they have to inject somebody like Ocasio-Cortez if they want to keep it.
01:12:49.900
Well, it's only ABC News because Barbara Walters said.
01:12:54.160
I mean, that's who her deal was through was ABC News.
01:12:59.460
But in the beginning, ABC Entertainment ran it.
01:13:08.700
I don't know the internal workings there, but they run it now.
01:13:12.280
And, you know, look, all news operations have collapsed.
01:13:19.600
He's an NBC correspondent, a big correspondent, somebody they send to big places.
01:13:33.680
This would be like Walter Cronkite saying, hey, I hope we go into recession because I
01:13:48.300
The Iowa State Fair, blah, blah, blah, don't really care.
01:13:54.280
What I found interesting was the new poll that came out that shows Elizabeth Warren now number
01:14:05.640
And I had my crack staff at BillOReilly.com investigate this.
01:14:16.320
It's not a scientific poll where you do random calling and get registered voters to tell you
01:14:34.020
Now, Warren could well win the Iowa caucus because the people involved with that have all
01:14:49.560
I think there's eight of them that control this caucus.
01:14:53.200
But Elizabeth Warren's not going to get the nomination.
01:14:57.540
And all these polls are all, you know, Fox News puts out a poll that has Bernie Sanders
01:15:09.320
And but, you know, makes headlines as long as the press likes the candidate.
01:15:16.320
I mean, the general election polling at this point is basically pointless.
01:15:26.220
The big story here, which is not being covered, is whether Biden has enough left mentally to
01:15:34.860
And this is what's being discussed in the Biden campaign with him himself.
01:15:42.960
Because he's out there saying insane stuff that and he doesn't even know he says it.
01:15:48.360
Usually when you make a mistake on the air, which I do, you know, you hear it in your head.
01:15:58.460
You know, black people are just as good as poor people.
01:16:10.820
You mentioned a scenario in which Warren wins Iowa, which is, you know, there's, it's possible.
01:16:20.580
But if Warren wins Iowa, she then goes to New Hampshire, which she's competitive in and
01:16:32.080
She's got at least a pretty serious shot at this thing, doesn't she?
01:16:35.180
Well, yeah, she could get the nomination, but she'll get wiped out like McGovern did.
01:16:40.060
But the Biden would win New Hampshire if Biden can speak.
01:16:47.420
Yeah, I really thought that he was going to be the nominee, but the more you watch him
01:17:00.020
One of the plans they floated was he wouldn't say anything.
01:17:08.880
This is what he would say if he could still speak.
01:17:30.520
Should Biden just start giving all of his speeches like the Star Wars open, where he
01:17:34.340
just stands there and then this text just goes over the screen in slow motion?
01:17:38.320
I think that's why he kind of looks at the camera with a daze for a while, because the
01:17:43.960
He's like, yeah, I think I'm I think I'm in Star Wars.
01:17:49.960
Somewhere in America, within the sound of my voice, there is a man standing in the hot
01:17:56.400
He turns the wrench in his hand, feeling and hearing the creak of the metal as he puts
01:18:01.580
the old girl back into shape or as far as he can see in either direction.
01:18:06.100
There's land that's been in his family since this country was settled, or at least it seems
01:18:14.700
As he stands, so many others like him in a pair of Tecova's boots, there's a smile on
01:18:22.980
Tecova's boots, they're made by hand for people who may not still work by hand, but they may
01:18:31.540
want to live that dream that, I don't know, they're like that guy standing in the sun in
01:18:38.180
They're made with the finest leathers available by the best boot makers around, takes over
01:18:43.280
200 steps to make a pair, and yet they're half the price of a similar quality boot.
01:18:50.160
That's because Tecova's believes in a handshake kind of deal kind of world.
01:18:54.560
It's the kind of world with the man in the sound of my voice.
01:19:01.600
The kind of world we all want to live in and the kind of the kind of world that when you're
01:19:06.680
wearing Tecova's for a second, when you look down at your boots or you just feel the comfort
01:19:27.720
You know, I just have to tell you, I love, I love technology.
01:19:36.120
We were just talking about the Mod Squad, and I remember the Mod Squad, the original
01:19:42.380
And so I just as I'm talking to Bill O'Reilly and not really listening to him, I'm Googling
01:19:47.260
the Mod Squad, and I see that Peggy Lipton was the girl who I think I might have had a
01:19:53.500
crush on when I was really, really, really young.
01:20:01.280
So I look up Peggy Lipton and I'm like, I know I know her from other things.
01:20:04.400
Oh, my gosh, that's a woman from the Mod Squad.
01:20:08.880
So I mourned there while Bill was still droning on.
01:20:11.420
Uh, and then, uh, I see that her daughter is Rashida Jones, who you also know.
01:20:25.920
That's Peggy Lipton's daughter from the Mod Squad.
01:20:31.840
So I love the fact that you can just go down these wormholes.
01:20:36.820
It never gives you any information that you want, but is the kind of information that
01:20:41.160
you do just what I just did right now, where we waste national time going, did you know
01:20:46.260
that that's Rashida Jones and she was, and they're related and that's the mother and.
01:21:03.700
I got to go back to Wikipedia, which of course only tells us the truth.
01:21:29.680
Everybody needs a rabbi and this is my favorite rabbi.
01:21:36.360
Daniel Lappin is going to talk to us a little bit with about Tlaib and Omar.
01:21:42.420
Also what the unifying theme is on this, this push to socialism.
01:21:58.700
A VPN is, I'm telling you, it's going to be kind of like a deep fake.
01:22:03.660
A lot of people don't know what a deep fake is yet.
01:22:05.980
But there's going to come a day very soon where everyone in the world will be talking about a deep fake.
01:22:17.360
Something is going to happen and there's going to be such hacks and such violations of privacy that everybody's going to say you need a VPN.
01:22:27.360
It is what will stop Facebook from tracking you, Google from tracking you, bad guys from tracking you.
01:22:34.200
You've sit in, you know, oh, no, it's got a password protected public Wi-Fi.
01:22:43.120
A VPN protects you, your computer, your history, your life, everything.
01:22:50.600
It's available right now and you can get a good VPN.
01:22:58.480
And all you need to do is you get a VPN at Norton.
01:23:17.620
In case somebody is trying to grab onto your information, not through a wireless system, you got it covered with a VPN.
01:23:24.940
But there are people that are coming after you in all different sorts of ways.
01:23:37.360
They can't, you know, monitor all transactions at all businesses, et cetera, et cetera.
01:24:20.880
I was just going to say, I count, I'm marking the days on the calendar.
01:24:26.620
We so far have 3,000 people on this ship that are going to come with us.
01:24:36.800
I think that that's, I mean, that's what we're going for.
01:24:41.660
To actually vacation with a few thousand of our closest friends is wonderful.
01:24:49.040
Let me just start with the news of the day with Rashida Tlaib and Ilan Omar.
01:24:55.420
They, they're, the story yesterday came out as Donald Trump just called his best friend,
01:25:00.700
Benjamin Netanyahu and said, don't let these crazy people in.
01:25:08.240
I mean, Israel has a problem with people who are running BDS and they passed a law.
01:25:14.080
And let's remember the left has a problem in general with the idea of national borders
01:25:20.940
And so the notion that Israel should exert any form of sovereignty is profoundly disturbing.
01:25:29.340
So, so then Benjamin Netanyahu said, because Tlaib said, I've got a grandmother and this
01:25:38.180
He said, well, you can apply for a humanitarian.
01:25:42.800
Tlaib said, uh, no, I, I, I can't go under these conditions.
01:25:47.420
I refuse to see my grandmother into these conditions.
01:25:52.700
Well, I mean, I think the main condition is grandma probably said, keep her out.
01:25:59.140
But, uh, so the idea that a country is going to let people in who are actively trying to
01:26:10.560
I don't think they actually even cared on going.
01:26:13.820
Uh, and one of the things they announced in advance they were going to do is visit the
01:26:18.700
What do you think that would have done, uh, some Friday with Tlaib and Omar on the temple
01:26:29.400
No, it would, uh, would unquestionably have precipitated drama, which is exactly what they
01:26:36.060
Look, I mean, there's a bottom line to it all, which is that, um, uh, these are two women
01:26:43.360
and, and they're by no means unique in this, of course, uh, the, the, the, there are huge
01:26:49.100
numbers of people, uh, they speak for and they're with, but, um, these are people essentially,
01:26:54.460
um, who are haters of a Western civilization and doing everything in their power to undermine
01:27:04.040
It so happens that the, uh, most effective defenders of Western civilization in a hostile
01:27:11.460
world right now are the United States of America and the state of Israel.
01:27:15.880
And so for these reasons, uh, these two countries arouse the intense hostility, uh, of all those,
01:27:23.580
the unifying theme on the left, I think, is hatred of Western civilization and everything
01:27:35.120
I just saw a, a poll today that said, while the approval rating of China is collapsing, uh,
01:27:44.480
not necessarily with millennials, at least not collapsing as fast.
01:27:48.780
Millennials are saying, Oh, I kind of like the idea of what China is doing.
01:27:54.220
Um, you know, part of it, of course, millennials, um, I think is a, uh, a catch all phrase that
01:28:02.120
probably includes a lot of people who don't agree on everything in exactly the same way
01:28:07.060
as there's no such thing as America's black community, right?
01:28:10.740
And there certainly isn't such a thing as America's Jewish community.
01:28:14.200
As a matter of fact, if you gathered all the self-identified Jews of America into a huge,
01:28:20.300
you know, four million seat auditorium and said, we're here to find the one thing we can all
01:28:26.940
Um, they would only all agree that Hitler was a very bad man.
01:28:30.520
There's nothing else all American Jews would agree on.
01:28:34.020
So the notion that all millennials agree on something is, is childish.
01:28:38.220
And it's just a notion pushed by, um, by some of the, the pundits with nothing to say.
01:28:43.900
Uh, you know, there's, there's, there's, there's a part of them, I would say that, that, that
01:28:49.840
appreciate the, the rapidity of the rise of China.
01:28:55.080
Um, many people dislike the, um, the, the freedom with which they have purloined the intellectual
01:29:03.460
products of the West, uh, through, um, uh, through literal theft and, and through other means
01:29:12.900
They don't think it's a good thing, but they say, you know what?
01:29:17.240
Um, when you, when you look at China, it is very hard not to see, uh, a nation on the
01:29:27.420
And what we, uh, want to try and do everything we can to, um, to avoid is America becoming a
01:29:38.320
Uh, it's now getting ready to leave the stage and make room for China.
01:29:45.660
And all the, the work you've been diligently devoting yourself to these many past years
01:29:55.020
But I think for many people, they kind of welcome and look forward because their contempt
01:30:00.100
for America as a representative of civilization is so deep that, uh, even to be displaced by
01:30:06.900
But I think that, uh, also there is another, there's another set of people that don't want
01:30:18.620
But, uh, are tired of the leadership role because they think that that, because we've
01:30:25.620
all been convinced, not all of us, but we've been convinced that, you know, to lead means
01:30:32.020
For instance, Hong Kong, uh, I don't know what to do about Hong Kong, except if I were
01:30:40.780
president, I would be stating as firmly as I could knowing who owns our national debt
01:30:47.520
that we stand with people who, you know, search for freedom and, and understand the universal
01:31:00.000
When Taiwan falls, if Hong Kong, if these guys are all rounded up and killed, Taiwan is next.
01:31:06.900
You know, the only thing is though, if they really wanted Taiwan, the time to have taken
01:31:10.240
it was during the Obama administration, when there would have been a yawn and an explanation
01:31:14.920
to the public as to why this makes sense in the, in the new world order.
01:31:21.740
And, and for the sake of a discussion, Glenn, I would say that, um, from a, a strategic point
01:31:30.800
of view, it's not really a good idea to ever point a gun at anybody, particularly if it's
01:31:38.780
Um, and so I don't think that making a statement about Hong Kong is, is necessarily a good idea,
01:31:46.160
particularly since we're not willing to send in troops.
01:31:52.320
I mean, you can say that you're standing with people who, uh, have freedom, but that doesn't
01:31:59.120
mean anything other than we salute you for standing, for recognizing these universal truths,
01:32:16.980
I'm reading a book right now called the volunteer.
01:32:21.660
It's about a guy who's been erased from history by the Soviet union who volunteered to go into
01:32:28.760
Auschwitz to find out what was really going on and create a, an underground movement in the
01:32:40.920
I always read your recommendations, your book recommendations, and I'll do, I'll read that.
01:32:52.140
He's been there for about two and a half years and it's, you know, it's horror.
01:33:02.420
The information got out, but what are you going to do about it?
01:33:06.460
So we all know that was a mistake, but aren't we making those same mistakes with the prisons
01:33:13.580
in North Korea or the prisons in, in China, these giant reeducation camps.
01:33:19.380
We know that that's what's going to happen to these people.
01:33:22.100
If they survive in Hong Kong, do we have any responsibility?
01:33:28.480
I believe the, now as an individual, Glenn Beck might decide to support a ministry that,
01:33:36.640
uh, that tries to get people in there to help them.
01:33:40.440
But as a government of the United States with coercive taxing authority, uh, to become the
01:33:47.220
effective policeman or for, or even worse, the spinster aunt of the world, wagging a bony
01:33:54.020
finger, uh, with absolutely no strength behind it.
01:33:58.980
That's not, it's not what the government of the United States has respond.
01:34:02.020
Nobody appointed them to promote values around the world.
01:34:05.800
We promoted them to follow the constitution, which says nothing whatsoever about being the
01:34:12.360
It's on the contrary, uh, for, for many years, the, uh, early Americans knew the important
01:34:18.180
thing was to absolutely stay out of the old world and its problems.
01:34:22.300
Um, and so I can't see any, but don't forget some of the right to ignore what was happening
01:34:31.240
Should we have just done something as individuals, but we were right to stay.
01:34:37.200
Many, many people were doing things as individuals, but this idea that somehow the allies were
01:34:56.460
I see what you're saying, but we, I'm talking about before we even engaged in the war.
01:35:01.080
You know, a lot of this stuff could have happened, you know, may have happened differently,
01:35:05.520
but then again, world war two is really caused by world war one and our big noise, big nose
01:35:10.860
into everything and not letting the Germans win world war one, frankly.
01:35:15.240
Uh, so I, I mean, I, you know, I, I don't know.
01:35:17.940
It's just a weird place because I think the country, I think there's a lot of conservatives
01:35:22.640
that are transitioning that are, have always been for, you know, like these people who are
01:35:28.080
like, I, you know, let's go save the little guy.
01:35:32.140
But you look at the world and you're like, no, no, we only make it worse.
01:35:47.380
It seems like there's like a certain hurdle to clear, right?
01:35:49.480
You know, there's a certain level of risk and a certain level of damage being done.
01:35:53.140
Like Hong Kong, they're protesting in airports.
01:35:59.040
Um, you know, Germany and the Holocaust is a different situation, right?
01:36:02.800
There's a much higher threat level to us at that moment and also a much higher damage
01:36:07.260
Even in Rwanda where there's a huge, massive damage.
01:36:10.760
That's not necessarily what's happening in Hong Kong.
01:36:12.860
Um, so there is, I think that our level has to be our, our, our, our, our response without
01:36:23.880
Like we need to, we need to defer and default to no.
01:36:30.200
So there's popularity is that he says, he ran on that, this is all about America.
01:36:35.500
You want to use tax money and, uh, and the goodwill of the American people.
01:36:43.760
It's amazing to me how people still on the left will say, oh, well, Donald Trump's a
01:36:49.720
We haven't had, I mean, we haven't had one that is this piece going, I think, since maybe
01:37:00.780
This guy is just like, no, it doesn't rise to this level.
01:37:11.100
Um, you know, and going back, I mean, as you, you mentioned the Middle East, uh, the
01:37:14.880
only rationale for dealing with Iraq was the conviction that there were weapons of
01:37:19.600
mass destruction, which at the time was not an unreasonable assessment.
01:37:23.600
But other than that, uh, this, this foolishness that permeated so much of the Republican
01:37:29.000
establishment at the time, uh, that nation building, and we've got to bring democracy
01:37:33.440
to the Middle East, give it to people, you know, just how stupid can people really be?
01:37:39.820
Not only they were stupid, I think, I think they were arrogant.
01:37:48.940
If you want to stop, uh, what you're doing for just a minute and just listen, let, uh,
01:37:55.720
let the silence spin out for a couple of seconds.
01:38:02.500
The slight creaking, groaning noise every time you even move slightly, you know what that
01:38:09.020
The sound of your chiropractor making a fortune.
01:38:12.320
Little did you know it, but every time you wince with back pain, uh, massage therapy student,
01:38:20.240
It's kind of, it's kind of like every time you hear the bell ring and angel gets swings.
01:38:23.980
If you're sitting in a substandard office chair every day, you're practically begging to have
01:38:29.280
to pay these people money for the rest of your life.
01:38:32.040
Why not invest in a chair that's going to work with your back?
01:38:38.980
It's patented variable, uh, dynamic variable lumbar support system is going to ensure that
01:38:46.220
It frankly deserves X chair on sale now for a hundred dollars off.
01:39:00.440
Use the promo code XWHEELS and you're going to receive a free set of the new X wheels with
01:39:16.220
We're with Rabbi Daniel Lappin and I want to get him to tell the story about, uh, socialism
01:39:33.200
and the world's first attempt at socialism coming up in, in just a minute or so.
01:39:37.920
Um, he told me this story once, uh, and it, it has never left me and I, it's just one of
01:39:44.560
the best, it's just one of the best ways to look at what is happening to us.
01:39:50.820
And I think it's true, um, than, than anybody else I've ever heard.
01:39:55.120
We'll get him to talk about that coming up in a second.
01:39:57.740
Uh, first, let me, let me ask you, what do you think is, um, coming our way looking at
01:40:06.660
Um, Joe Biden is, I mean, if he gets the nomination and if he can hold it together, I
01:40:13.900
mean, he's looking, I don't mean this in a mean way or in any other way.
01:40:19.020
I wouldn't say it if I didn't think it was true.
01:40:21.220
I've never thought that he was old until recently where he seems like he's starting to slip a
01:40:33.560
Um, so that leaves us with the leaders being Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.
01:40:39.640
Uh, and if one of, if, if, if Bernie Sanders drops out, I think a lot of that support will
01:40:46.720
What do you think an Elizabeth Warren, uh, presidency would be like?
01:40:51.460
Um, absolutely incomprehensible, uh, unthinkable.
01:40:57.440
It would, uh, it, it would be, uh, um, a hard shift, uh, leftwards.
01:41:03.880
Um, look, Bill O'Reilly just said, um, that he thought it would be a depression, a 1930s
01:41:15.700
It's very possible he's right because she actually has said, and so is her chief economist, a,
01:41:22.660
a lady who's a professor at a state university of New York, that the government can spend as
01:41:28.580
much money as it needs to, or wants to, because people must remember that the government always
01:41:44.280
I was talking to a banker last week and he's like, no, that's not true.
01:41:47.840
And I said, yes, they're talking about it now in Washington.
01:41:54.140
Pick a hundred university students doing any liberal arts program on any campus in the
01:42:01.100
United States of America and ask the hundred people what's wrong with that statement.
01:42:05.720
How many do you think will have the faintest clue that there's a problem?
01:42:12.940
I don't think anybody knows why the government cannot just go ahead and print money in order
01:42:18.800
by the universal basic income depends on that notion as well.
01:42:27.380
If I'm going to ask him to explain this part of the Bible that talks about socialism.
01:42:46.840
I, I don't know how you sleep at night, but I toss and turn and I'm constantly fluffing my
01:43:00.080
Sometimes you just try to fall asleep by, um, you know, counting Bernie Sanders, you know,
01:43:06.500
Uh, but I got up to a thousand and I was still counting the real answer to fall asleep and
01:43:12.140
have a good night's sleep is my pillow, my pillow inventor.
01:43:16.300
Mike Lindell has, has, uh, developed a pillow that you really kind of almost have to be fitted
01:43:22.140
You'll wake up refreshed in the morning, having slept through the night and the best part,
01:43:26.240
no dreams of crazy socialists taking over the country, which is very comforting.

01:44:10.400
We were just talking about AI, uh, off the air with, uh, Daniel Lappin.
01:44:15.500
And he just said something to me that I just have to pursue.
01:44:18.680
Uh, you said for you, it comes down to how come, uh, or how did you say it?
01:44:26.840
I said that the, the absolute fundamental key to this discussion is whether identical
01:44:33.420
twins have the same fingerprints or different fingerprints.
01:44:36.520
And you responded immediately different fingerprints.
01:44:40.080
And the, the question that we all have to come back with right away is, but that's impossible
01:44:46.600
because identical twins mean literally a split fertilized ovum and sperm.
01:44:53.560
There is no DNA data that one child has that the other doesn't.
01:45:00.640
So how do we end up with different fingerprints?
01:45:06.040
Now, before anybody jumps in, Oh, I know the, you, you really don't know the answer.
01:45:11.700
One thing you're going to say is that, uh, uh, contact with the uterine lining, the child
01:45:18.780
moves his fingers over the uterine lining and that causes changes.
01:45:23.020
Well, that ought to produce an incoherent smudge.
01:45:28.400
What we end up with is a perfectly coherent, different set of fingerprints, unique and different
01:45:39.140
Now, epigenetics is a word that is created to explain something that at the moment is
01:45:46.320
Epigenetics is a theory that says certain genes get turned on and off in certain inexplicable
01:45:53.820
Look, um, we're dealing with a world today where, um, it is an absolutely fundamental obsession
01:46:02.780
that there needs to be a materialistic explanation for every life process, and they are desperate
01:46:11.540
to find a materialistic explanation for this one.
01:46:16.500
The fact remains that, uh, I have an explanation.
01:46:21.220
Now, my worldview is that not that through a lengthy process of unaided, unaided materialistic
01:46:31.300
evolution, that primitive protoplasm transformed into plumbers and proctologists, I don't think
01:46:41.060
The other viewpoint is that the good Lord created us and put us here, created us in his image
01:46:49.960
But the point is, neither can the other side prove their viewpoint.
01:46:53.100
These are decisions each and every person has to make for themselves based on their own
01:46:57.280
And when you said unaided, you mean that it might have been that we crawled out of a swamp,
01:47:03.580
but there was a design, there was a creation, there was a creator.
01:47:08.220
Uh, the, the, the, the left, uh, theology, the theological narrative of the left is unaided
01:47:17.040
Therefore, how do twins, identical twins have the, well, there's got to be some explanation.
01:47:23.260
The explanation is that we were created in the image of a God.
01:47:27.900
And the whole reason we call it monotheism is because God is unique.
01:47:35.580
And so if God is unique, then if he created us in his image, well, then obviously we're unique
01:47:42.860
We are unique in our faces and our fingerprints.
01:47:50.140
Um, our fingers are the, uh, the metaphor for our creativity.
01:47:53.820
You know, people speak the work of your hands, uh, and for us to be unique there makes absolutely
01:47:59.220
sense to me, a fingerprint should better be called a soul print, not a fingerprint.
01:48:05.100
And so, um, will, will it be possible to create some humanoid monster?
01:48:15.400
Well, we were talking about Elon Musk off the air and, and you said if Elon Musk says
01:48:20.560
it, if, unless it refers to batteries, I say, no, I go the other way.
01:48:25.160
Um, and, uh, that brought me to, uh, AI, which is around the corner.
01:48:31.340
Um, now, whether we get there or not, people speculate, but we are getting to a place to
01:48:38.140
where, uh, artificial intelligence will become general intelligence and then super intelligent,
01:48:43.760
uh, and we will not be able to keep up with it.
01:48:52.100
It is impossible to fly an F-18 fighter jet without a computer.
01:48:57.320
In other words, a pilot, a normal, any human being lacks the speed.
01:49:03.260
And so, and I think the same is true for most passenger jets today.
01:49:06.400
I think if there's a computer failure, basically you just need to get it down as quickly as
01:49:11.060
possible because you can't fly it, uh, entirely manually without the electronics.
01:49:15.180
So we, we have a level of intelligence, if you like a electronic or digital intelligence
01:49:22.480
But what I don't see is, um, the, and here's where I would differ from, from Elon Musk.
01:49:28.940
He's obviously smarter than me, but I don't know that he has more wisdom than me.
01:49:35.640
He is super intelligent, but I don't think he's a wise person.
01:49:40.640
Um, and, um, what, what wisdom, and again, wisdom, as far as I'm concerned, didn't come
01:49:46.360
It just came from, from my knowledge of the Bible.
01:49:49.200
But, um, part of what the, what wisdom would dictate here is that, uh, it's not a case of
01:49:59.080
And I see zero evidence of any machine developing the capacity of consciousness and will.
01:50:14.220
In other words, human beings write poetry about their feelings.
01:50:57.580
And, and, uh, as far as composing music, which I absolutely cannot do.
01:51:04.060
But, um, converting, uh, human emotions into sounds.
01:51:08.840
Um, I don't know that intelligence, uh, that machinery will ever be able to do that.
01:51:13.580
In other words, I can say to a songwriter, a genius, I mean, whether it's Paul McCartney
01:51:19.900
or, or, or, or, or composers of the past, write a piece of music that'll make men be willing
01:51:32.580
I'm a hardened guy and, uh, I, I, I'm not a very emotional, sentimental guy.
01:51:46.340
I'll bet you, I'll bet you in our lifetime, in our, in the next five years, I'll be able
01:51:54.720
Right now, I will travel anywhere in the world to see a machine that can compose music on
01:52:05.040
In the same way, by the way, that, um, when all the, uh, do you remember all the, the
01:52:08.980
fever about Coco, the gorilla that was talking?
01:52:12.720
And, um, uh, again, you know, I, I, I was not the only one, obviously, but, but, but plenty
01:52:17.900
people who understood these things were saying this complete nonsense.
01:52:20.960
There's a woman who's invested her entire life on making this gorilla talk.
01:52:25.520
I think we can assume she's projecting a little bit.
01:52:27.800
Then when we actually got down to it and we took a look at it, we saw that not only couldn't
01:52:31.820
the gorilla talk, but she didn't even believe the gorilla could talk.
01:52:40.920
I'm going to take a quick break and I'm going to come back and I want you to tell, we've
01:52:54.400
The first, the first example of socialism is in the Bible.
01:53:00.580
We'll get, we'll get to that here in just a second.
01:53:02.660
You know, that part, uh, under the hood of your car, that's about to break.
01:53:18.440
I couldn't even figure out how to open the damn hood of this truck.
01:53:22.520
And then I stand in there and I'm looking at the engine.
01:53:29.660
I have the same information with the hood closed as with the hood open.
01:53:36.240
Most of us are wandering around in our cars, never quite sure what's going to happen from
01:53:43.040
And when it does happen, we have no idea what just happened.
01:53:46.300
If you don't have the right coverage, you might be in for a world of financial hurt.
01:53:50.660

Uh, we have, um, we, I just have to have you back, uh, and talk about a bunch of other things.
01:54:47.040
Um, uh, are you sure our cruise is long enough for 10 days?
01:54:56.600
First time it's mentioned or first time it's tried is in the Bible.
01:55:09.940
Uh, because there are a lot of shows you can't.
01:55:16.380
Well, uh, implanted in the human soul, uh, is a tension between two types of existence.
01:55:23.000
Um, we human beings are created to connect, uh, we have, um, scores of muscles in our faces
01:55:34.100
which have no utilitarian function having to do with breathing or eating.
01:55:38.320
They are only there for expression purposes because a face-to-face meeting actually means
01:55:45.080
something, uh, being made to connect, um, the, the good Lord created a world in which
01:55:55.560
One of the unifying characteristics of, uh, the homeless, the overwhelming majority detached
01:56:04.880
Uh, one of the unifying characteristics of mass killers, not only those who use guns, but
01:56:12.480
also those who use knives, which the press is reluctant to report.
01:56:19.000
The unifying characteristic is loneliness and isolation.
01:56:32.000
Now the, the two forms of connecting, connecting requires some form of organization and the, the
01:56:39.080
two forms of organization, uh, are depicted in the, the first, uh, 12 chapters of the Bible.
01:56:46.720
Uh, the tension is between the worldview of a guy called Nimrod and the worldview of a guy
01:56:53.860
called Abraham, uh, which, which is, which is why, um, the, the two of them are at loggerheads
01:57:01.060
throughout, uh, throughout that part of the Bible.
01:57:03.980
And, uh, Abraham's worldview is, uh, essentially one that was adopted by the founders of the United
01:57:10.960
States of America, which is limited central government, but a moral and religious people
01:57:18.100
whose fear of God, if you like, will keep them from the majority of crime.
01:57:23.420
Because if you don't take that avenue, there are not enough policemen to watch the policemen,
01:57:31.980
Uh, and, um, the Nimrod worldview is no, everything has to be centrally organized.
01:57:38.380
And where this, this fundamental disagreement, I think it's worth spending 20 seconds on this.
01:57:43.480
The fundamental disagreement comes from the fundamental, uh, worldview dichotomy of whether
01:57:49.640
we were created by a good and loving God in his image and placed here, or whether we got
01:57:54.760
here through a lengthy process of unaided materialistic evolution.
01:57:58.340
If the latter, then we are nothing but animals.
01:58:06.940
But we're just another creature on the spectrum of biological life on the planet.
01:58:12.800
The other worldview says, no, we are unique, touched by the finger of God.
01:58:16.220
But if we're the, the other way, well then just like animals in a zoo or animals in the
01:58:21.940
Kruger National Park in South Africa or animals in a farm, there needs to be a zookeeper or a
01:58:28.620
game warden or a farmer to take care of things.
01:58:36.700
And so the, the story of the Tower of Babel is really remarkable in, in many ways.
01:58:41.180
It's, it's, it's the most revelatory nine verses anywhere in the book of Genesis, nine
01:58:52.420
So I guess anyone who's interested just has to come on the cruise.
01:58:58.660
Well, the, the tower represents centralized control, obviously, and the, the tension is
01:59:04.940
whether people are going to be bricks or stones, right?
01:59:08.580
And stones created by God, each one unique and different, um, bricks created by man and
01:59:15.660
only fulfills their function by each one being identical.
01:59:18.680
And we find the, the, the bureaucrats love of public transport is to make us into bricks.
01:59:24.400
So we all travel in the same route and they hate cars because cars are, they are unique.
01:59:30.900
Each person picks his own color, picks whatever he goes, where he wants, when he wants the,
01:59:35.880
the bureaucrat, uh, working in a, in a Babel mindset hates the idea of unique human beings.
01:59:42.680
That's why, um, national identity registries are giving everyone a number.
01:59:48.520
But they love that because it lets them, how about government housing?
01:59:52.540
You, you, don't you dare paint your front door a different color if you're in government
01:59:58.880
So when God scattered them, changed their language, did he literally change their language
02:00:03.100
or he, did he disrupt the system that allowed them to communicate in an efficient form?
02:00:09.840
It was actually the, the breakdown of Hebrew into all the other languages.
02:00:13.900
This is a big subject and, uh, and we'll startle people.
02:00:17.680
But, uh, uh, but yeah, the, um, the, the, the model that God is saying, look, and by the
02:00:23.520
way, we, we find the word islands used in Genesis for that reason.
02:00:29.260
This was really the, the federal model of the founders.
02:00:32.300
Let each state do its own experiment and the other states can watch and see if it's good.
02:00:36.620
We'll follow it if it were, but not everybody doing the same thing all the time.
