Transcript

00:00:00.000 Good morning, Hillary. Thank you so much. We are we're live from Turning Point USA here in West Palm, Florida.
00:00:11.260 We have a massive, massive show coming up for you that you're not going to want to miss a second on.
00:00:18.260 And, Stu, did you watch the debate last night? I happen to be on stage during it.
00:00:22.180 Yeah, I caught as much of it as I could possibly take. So about 30 seconds.
00:00:28.140 So you were the one watching, though.
00:00:30.000 Yeah, I mean, it was your turn to watch.
00:00:31.800 It was very, I would say, it was not there's not a good build up to it.
00:00:37.140 It was like one of those things where everyone's in Christmas mode.
00:00:40.380 Everyone's in impeachment mode. Everyone is in Star Wars mode.
00:00:44.420 Nobody's in debate mode. Right. Like that is not where the country is today.
00:00:49.120 No spoilers. And you're really good at no spoilers. I'm really bad.
00:00:53.500 Did you see Star Wars last night? I did see Star Wars last night.
00:00:57.000 You have to answer that.
00:00:58.140 Yes. Spoiler alert. I did see it. Yes.
00:01:01.160 Yeah. OK, good. So we have that coming up and and and so much more.
00:01:07.180 I'm going to give you a list of the things that are happening on today's show.
00:01:09.660 The last Glenn Beck program of the decade begins in just a few minutes.
00:01:17.840 Hello, America. It's Friday.
00:01:46.420 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:01:49.440 The last one of the decade. And what a way to end up this decade.
00:01:55.520 On today's program, Candace Owens, who is remarkable.
00:02:01.060 I saw her speak last night here at Turning Point USA.
00:02:03.980 And she is. I'm telling you, she's our Michelle Obama.
00:02:11.000 She is so likable, so magnetic.
00:02:18.000 And she her arms are actually toned.
00:02:21.760 We don't we don't have to we don't have to get people in the press just to try to convince everybody.
00:02:26.720 She's got great arms. We'll talk to her.
00:02:29.420 Also, Rudy Giuliani will be here.
00:02:31.220 Bill O'Reilly will be on the program.
00:02:33.440 Charlie Kirk.
00:02:34.460 And in 90 minutes, a major announcement all on today's program.
00:02:41.740 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:02:43.940 And we begin in 60 seconds.
00:02:49.620 First, let me remind you, Simply Safe has a huge holiday offer going on right now.
00:02:54.360 It's their biggest sale of the year.
00:02:56.760 If you're looking to fully protect your home with award winning 24-7 home security, now is the time to do it.
00:03:03.540 We all know burglaries are on the rise during the holiday season.
00:03:06.880 You know, everybody's traveling.
00:03:08.040 You're going to leave your house empty.
00:03:10.780 Well, not empty.
00:03:12.120 They'll leave your house empty.
00:03:14.000 You're going to leave your house without anybody watching over all of the stuff that most likely had just been opened under the tree.
00:03:21.900 Simply Safe's holiday sale couldn't come at a better time.
00:03:24.660 Simply Safe has everything you need to protect your home and your family.
00:03:28.120 There's a smart lock, a video doorbell pro to defend your front door.
00:03:32.280 Stu, did you hear about the guy in Denver, Colorado that had one of these cameras on his porch?
00:03:40.820 And he checks in and he sees a guy leaving holiday loaves.
00:03:52.900 Oh, no.
00:03:53.680 Oh, no.
00:03:55.060 Mm-hmm.
00:03:56.460 No.
00:03:56.960 And he did it several times.
00:04:01.480 On the same porch?
00:04:03.180 On the same porch.
00:04:06.700 Well, different strokes, I guess.
00:04:09.260 I guess.
00:04:11.520 Merry Christmas.
00:04:13.060 Anyway, if you had Simply Safe, you could have alerted police immediately.
00:04:19.620 I mean, you would have been able to see it because you can see your front porch anywhere and you can just trip the alarm and the police will come.
00:04:27.400 And you have the video evidence.
00:04:29.920 So when the alarm is tripped, it calls the police, presents the video evidence.
00:04:35.180 So it's confirmation that this is not a false alarm, which has the police respond 350% faster.
00:04:42.900 It goes from like 45 minutes to seven minutes.
00:04:46.260 It's pretty an amazing system.
00:04:47.540 And right now, you can take advantage of 25% off.
00:04:50.960 I've never seen them do this.
00:04:52.820 25% off and a free HD security camera.
00:04:57.320 It's limited until, what, I think the first of the year, maybe even Christmas.
00:05:02.920 So you've got to do it now.
00:05:03.980 SimplySafeBeck.com.
00:05:05.480 Save 25%.
00:05:06.280 Get a free HD security camera.
00:05:08.260 It's SimplySafeBeck.com.
00:05:24.140 So last night, believe it or not, was another debate.
00:05:28.200 And you'll never guess who's fighting for the center.
00:05:33.440 Elizabeth Warren is now trying to fight for the center.
00:05:39.500 Elizabeth Warren?
00:05:41.480 Center of what?
00:05:43.460 It's insane.
00:05:45.480 It's insane.
00:05:47.260 I think Andrew Yang had the exchange of the night, the one that was, I think, important.
00:05:54.620 Again, showing he kind of gets it.
00:05:57.140 Here he is telling everybody else on the podium, stop with the obsession of impeachment.
00:06:05.420 Listen.
00:06:06.180 It's clear why Americans can't agree on impeachment.
00:06:08.940 We're getting our news from different sources, and it's making it hard for us even to agree on basic facts.
00:06:14.600 Congressional approval rating last I checked was something like 17%.
00:06:17.680 And Americans don't trust the media networks to tell them the truth.
00:06:21.580 The media networks didn't do us any favors by missing the reason why Donald Trump became our president in the first place.
00:06:28.040 If you turn on cable network news today, you would think he's our president because of some combination of Russia, racism, Facebook, Hillary Clinton, and emails all mixed together.
00:06:38.060 But Americans around the country, no different.
00:06:41.920 We blasted away 4 million manufacturing jobs that were primarily based in Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Missouri.
00:06:50.980 I just left Iowa.
00:06:52.600 We blasted 40,000 manufacturing jobs there.
00:06:55.680 The more we act like Donald Trump is the cause of all of our problems, the more Americans lose trust that we can actually see what's going on in our communities and solve those problems.
00:07:06.320 What we have to do is we have to stop being obsessed over impeachment, which unfortunately strikes many Americans like a ballgame where you know what the score is going to be,
00:07:15.440 and start actually digging in and solving the problems that got Donald Trump elected in the first place.
00:07:20.920 We have to take every opportunity to present a new positive vision for the country, a new way forward to help beat him in 2020,
00:07:28.380 because make no mistake, he'll be there at the ballot box for us to defeat.
00:07:33.500 To me, he's the most serious candidate.
00:07:36.820 To me, he is the guy that if they nominated him, you would have a chance of actually turning some heads,
00:07:47.620 because he's serious, he's thoughtful, he's very left, but he has actually thought these things through,
00:07:56.360 and he is speaking to the American people.
00:08:00.620 I can guarantee you that a lot of the people that watched this last night, because they were Democrats,
00:08:06.760 and I don't mean the Democrats who are, you know, out there campaigning right now.
00:08:11.500 I mean the average Democrat.
00:08:13.000 If they were paying attention last night, and they saw that, I can guarantee you they were thinking to themselves,
00:08:19.000 yes, finally, yes.
00:08:22.620 Yeah.
00:08:22.980 Do you know that in the rally, where was that, in Michigan, just a couple of days ago?
00:08:33.260 Is that where he had that?
00:08:34.120 Michigan?
00:08:34.880 Grand Rapids?
00:08:35.480 Where was that?
00:08:37.240 Donald Trump had his...
00:08:38.820 Go ahead.
00:08:39.740 It was definitely Michigan.
00:08:41.160 I think it was in Amash's district, wasn't it?
00:08:43.000 I think it was.
00:08:44.600 So he has this rally.
00:08:46.140 Did you know that 19% of the crowd were Democrats?
00:08:53.480 19% of that crowd were Democrats.
00:08:59.140 This is...
00:09:00.840 Yeah, you think?
00:09:02.760 This is spelling doom for the Democrats.
00:09:06.680 And believe me, I'm happy about it, but this is...
00:09:12.000 They just don't get it at all.
00:09:15.480 At all.
00:09:16.220 They are so out of touch with people.
00:09:18.060 I think Yang does get it.
00:09:19.800 I think he sees a lot of what's actually happening in the country.
00:09:24.820 Now, to be clear, and you hit on this, I think he would be a bad president.
00:09:29.360 Like, I think Andrew Yang would be a bad president.
00:09:31.240 His policies are not good for the country.
00:09:34.740 But, number one, I think he is serious.
00:09:37.620 And number two, he comes off as probably the only person who comes off on the stage as a good person.
00:09:43.860 He seems like a good guy.
00:09:45.840 Like, he's not made his campaign about insulting Republicans and calling them racist.
00:09:52.220 He has made his campaign about his ideas, which I don't think are good ideas.
00:09:57.620 But at least he's actually attempting to be real.
00:10:01.020 He seems likable.
00:10:02.480 And, you know, when you listen to him in scenarios where he's not just on stage kind of quoting his own universal basic income program over and over and over and over again, you see he has depth.
00:10:14.680 He's thought of these things.
00:10:15.880 He's listened to libertarian and conservative arguments about them.
00:10:19.040 He knows, you know, I mean, like, that is, you don't get this from politicians.
00:10:23.240 He is different.
00:10:24.280 He's changing the paradigm a little bit.
00:10:26.280 Let me ask you, as an American currently functioning in this nation, would you rather have a debate where two people are calling each other names and it's a fight over racism,
00:10:42.400 or two people who were discussing universal basic income because the world is on the verge of change and we are headed towards what experts say is permanent 30% unemployment in the next 10 years.
00:11:01.540 And that's only because of the upgrades of AI and everything else.
00:11:06.980 They believe that we will have a permanent 30% unemployment rate.
00:11:11.720 Now, that may not be true.
00:11:14.940 You know, people say that every time, you know, we got rid of the horses and they're like, what are people, what are blacksmiths going to do?
00:11:20.780 Yeah, it hurt for a while, but they found another job.
00:11:22.860 So, it may not be true, but at least we'd be having a discussion about the future of the country and what we're really facing.
00:11:33.160 I would so much rather have that conversation with somebody I really disagree with.
00:11:38.700 I mean, I told you probably five years ago at least, you need to have the discussions about things like basic, universal basic income.
00:11:51.580 Not because it's socialist, but because there's going to be a real outcry while we're in this transition.
00:12:00.740 And just by pretending it's not coming is not going to be good enough, we'll be beaten by a really bad idea, universal basic income, because we won't even be addressing the problem.
00:12:16.120 Andrew Yang is, he sees over the horizon.
00:12:20.100 He's wrong, I believe, on his policies, but he should be heard and he should be debated seriously.
00:12:27.340 And you saw that, I think, for the first time a little bit last night, because we're down to seven candidates.
00:12:34.400 He was actually able to speak a little bit.
00:12:36.860 He wasn't completely ignored.
00:12:38.840 Now, he's still at the point where no one is finding any benefit in challenging his ideas or attacking him.
00:12:46.280 So, he's in that nice little window where he's at four or five percent, and there's not a huge point in going after him.
00:12:52.760 Unlike Buttigieg, who was the focus of almost every back and forth in that debate last night.
00:12:58.740 Which is interesting because, we said this from the beginning, at some point, they're not going to just hand Pete Buttigieg the nomination.
00:13:05.500 At some point, someone's going to have to say something negative about the guy.
00:13:09.080 They attempted that last night, which was sort of the big takeaway of the debate.
00:13:14.380 How do you think that worked out?
00:13:16.420 Was that effective?
00:13:17.200 I thought he did well fighting it off.
00:13:21.020 He, you know, Warren went after him with this attack of like, well, you're doing these fundraisers in wine caves.
00:13:28.180 Because he did this fundraiser with rich people in a wine cave and took these donations.
00:13:33.300 And, of course, his comeback to that is...
00:13:34.500 Who cares?
00:13:35.320 Well, this is classism.
00:13:36.540 It's all these...
00:13:37.720 It's the entire party's platform, basically.
00:13:40.380 It's to say he's either racist or that he likes rich people too much.
00:13:44.300 Bernie was calling everybody out last night for, you know, having fundraisers with billionaires.
00:13:51.180 Oh, okay.
00:13:52.280 So, we've made it a B instead of an M because now, Bernie, you're a millionaire.
00:13:57.180 Yeah, right.
00:13:58.900 It's a great one.
00:14:00.000 I love that.
00:14:01.080 And it's amazing how they say...
00:14:02.620 I mean, Warren said last night, we can't have people who are, you know, super rich making the decisions for the electorate.
00:14:13.220 And it's like, well, they're...
00:14:14.600 I mean, one man, one vote applies to them too.
00:14:17.340 They get a chance to say what they believe too.
00:14:21.280 And if they get to make the same donations...
00:14:23.220 No, Stu.
00:14:24.520 No, Stu.
00:14:25.420 Stu.
00:14:25.720 Stu.
00:14:26.240 Stu.
00:14:26.660 Nothing a billionaire has ever done has been any good.
00:14:32.480 Carnegie.
00:14:33.360 What did he do?
00:14:34.680 They gave us steel.
00:14:36.640 And then what?
00:14:37.600 Just started forcing libraries all over the country, you know, that he paid for.
00:14:46.200 You know, Bill Gates, what did he do besides change the way we work and make things more efficient?
00:14:54.400 You know, that evil billionaire, and I kind of mean this one, Steve Jobs.
00:14:59.020 What did he do?
00:15:00.200 I know.
00:15:00.620 Except connect the entire world.
00:15:02.480 I'm going to tweet about this right now on my iPhone and let everyone know how evil he was.
00:15:08.060 I love that.
00:15:09.680 I love that.
00:15:10.800 You got to get rid of those billionaires, man, because they did nothing to earn that money.
00:15:16.120 All right.
00:15:16.660 Back in just a second.
00:15:18.200 We have a major announcement.
00:15:21.360 If you are a Blaze subscriber, please check your email.
00:15:26.160 Late, late, late last night.
00:15:27.920 It was midnight on the East Coast when I finally wrote this letter to give you an upper hand.
00:15:35.240 If you are a Blaze subscriber or if you've ever donated to the Nazarene Fund or M1, Mercury 1,
00:15:43.580 you probably, you should have gotten a letter from me last night.
00:15:47.060 Open that up before you've got about 70 minutes ahead start.
00:15:54.240 So open that up so you can get the advance scoop.
00:15:58.660 And believe me, you're going to thank me for that advance because it's, well, don't miss the announcement coming up in about 70 minutes.
00:16:08.700 All right.
00:16:09.060 I want to talk to you about X Chair.
00:16:11.040 X Chair, perfect Christmas gift for my wife.
00:16:14.440 Because my wife comes in, she sits at my chair in the office, and then she kind of swivels in it for a minute,
00:16:21.920 and she kind of sits up at the desk, and you can just see the wheels turning.
00:16:26.260 And she's like, I don't have one of these.
00:16:29.940 Hmm.
00:16:30.620 Good observation, honey.
00:16:32.200 Just to piss her off.
00:16:33.500 Great observation.
00:16:34.640 No, you don't.
00:16:35.360 I do.
00:16:37.040 Hmm.
00:16:37.580 Yeah, I don't.
00:16:38.560 I don't have one of these.
00:16:40.080 That's really comfortable.
00:16:41.740 Yeah.
00:16:42.520 Good observation.
00:16:43.540 Again, it is.
00:16:44.040 You know, there's 10 different adjustments there, and it's got the lumbar support in the back, so you just, you sit up straight, and you're really, really comfortable.
00:16:51.460 10 different adjustments.
00:16:53.220 I don't have one of these.
00:16:54.680 I know.
00:16:55.140 You've already said that.
00:16:56.340 Are you, are you okay?
00:16:57.940 Do you, should we go see a doctor?
00:16:59.540 Because you seem forgetful.
00:17:02.400 Finally, I want this for Christmas.

00:17:41.460 We pause for 10 seconds.
00:17:43.560 Station ID.
00:17:52.340 You know, I want to, I want to share a, kind of a Christmas message coming up in just a second.
00:18:03.680 And it revolves around adoption.
00:18:05.060 You know, the best thing that, I was just going to say, I was going to say the best thing I've ever done was adoption.
00:18:15.120 But then I remember what people tell me about boats.
00:18:18.680 The happiest day of your life is the day you get your boat.
00:18:23.780 And then once you've had it for a while, you realize, no, that's the second happiest day.
00:18:28.100 The happiest day will be the day I get rid of that damn boat.
00:18:31.440 And so I, I'm, I'm not sure, but right now, I believe the happiest day is when one of my children was born and my son, Rafe, we adopted him.
00:18:45.800 We got him at birth.
00:18:46.800 It was just a miraculous thing.
00:18:49.340 And his birth mother was just, just one of the bravest people I know.
00:18:55.560 And, um, there is a couple that lives in Seattle, uh, and you'll know them when you hear, but you don't know anything about what's happening in their personal life.
00:19:11.480 And they have gone and adopted these children from China, and they specifically are asking for the ones that are abandoned, the ones who have major health issues.
00:19:23.220 And they're in the hospital all the time in Seattle.
00:19:26.140 I mean, you know, they walk into the front, you know, of these, uh, the Seattle Children's Hospital, and they're like, hey, Bill, hey, Steve, how are you?
00:19:34.660 I mean, they know everybody because they're there all the time, and they have worked real miracles in these kids' life.
00:19:41.700 And more importantly, these kids have worked miracles in their life.
00:19:45.960 And I just wanted to share this story and their story coming up in a few minutes because, uh, uh, we avoid hardships.
00:19:56.280 Uh, we, we have deemed that all hardships are, are, um, somehow or another bad, and they're not.
00:20:05.200 That, that's when you grow.
00:20:06.980 That's when you change.
00:20:08.180 Those are the, those are the times when you look back and you say, that was really a great time.
00:20:14.780 You were bitching the whole time about it, and you didn't want to live like that, and you don't want to go back.
00:20:20.220 But it was the time of your life that you, you remember most times as one of the best times of your life.
00:20:27.500 So I'll share that, uh, with you.
00:20:29.300 An amazing story coming up in, uh, in just a second.
00:20:32.480 Stu, what did you think about Joe Biden, Joe Biden imitating the stuttering kid?
00:20:38.100 Well, you know, honestly, it's, it's one of those things that, uh, I don't think is all that.
00:20:44.780 It's not that big of a deal.
00:20:46.720 Uh, he is.
00:20:47.560 I don't think it's a big deal at all.
00:20:49.340 Yeah.
00:20:49.800 But.
00:20:50.540 But.
00:20:51.060 But, I mean, certainly if Trump did it, it would be a big deal, right?
00:20:54.080 We all know.
00:20:54.560 It would be, there'd be a new impeachment papers filed tomorrow for it.
00:20:58.020 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:20:58.040 Absolutely, absolutely.
00:20:59.260 But, you know, Biden is, and we talked about this when it happened.
00:21:02.380 He, the explanation from the campaign for why he's so bad in public and why he's been so
00:21:10.160 bad in this debate is that he was a stutterer when he's a kid.
00:21:13.900 When he was a kid, he was actually a stutterer.
00:21:16.240 He's talked about it before.
00:21:17.240 That's not a brand new thing.
00:21:18.640 Though.
00:21:18.920 Is it possible some of the hair off his legs got caught in his throat?
00:21:23.280 Maybe that's why he was stuttering so much.
00:21:26.140 He was standing in the, yeah, because he stands in the pool and his hair just kind of goes and,
00:21:30.560 you know, I'm just imagining these long locks of hair from his legs.
00:21:34.480 He's got, like, lines wrapped around the pool.
00:21:36.420 Little kids want to come in the water and rub his legs.
00:21:39.400 Yeah, no, not weird at all.
00:21:41.500 No.
00:21:41.700 No.
00:21:42.140 No.
00:21:43.100 Maybe that's.
00:21:43.620 He was stuttering because they were rubbing his legs.
00:21:45.700 Right.
00:21:46.500 Da, da, da, da.
00:21:47.460 They're always under the podium rubbing his legs.
00:21:50.100 Yeah, anyway.
00:21:50.860 Yeah, so that was their big excuse was that he, the problems he had as a child were coming
00:21:56.720 back.
00:21:57.500 Now, you know, very two-thirds of the way through, a little very long story, and I believe
00:22:01.460 it was the Atlantic that wrote it, is the idea that doctors don't think that's a thing.
00:22:06.320 Like, they don't say, if you're a stuttering kid and you are able to cure that, it doesn't
00:22:13.100 typically come back when you're in your 70s.
00:22:15.820 So stuttering's not like cancer?
00:22:19.620 It's not, it's a little different.
00:22:21.040 It's a little different.
00:22:21.900 A little different.
00:22:22.680 Okay, didn't know that.
00:22:23.760 Learned something new every day.
00:22:24.840 So I think he thinks he can, he's, you know, it's like, it's like you are able to make fun
00:22:30.560 of Italians if you're Italian, right?
00:22:32.900 Like, he's thinking, I can, not even make fun, but I, it's okay, I can say these things
00:22:37.520 because I'm one of them.
00:22:39.600 I think that's his thought process there.
00:22:41.460 Though, again, the thought process of Joe Biden is usually pretty, pretty small and not
00:22:45.460 exactly dynamic.
00:22:46.800 Hey, hey, he is up to date.
00:22:49.960 He's, he's doing no malarkey.
00:22:52.520 He's, he's got a no malarkey bus.
00:22:54.840 He is up to speed.
00:22:57.900 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:25:00.380 I want to introduce you to a couple of people, Peter and Seth Talbot.
00:25:05.420 Now, they're friends of mine, and also, full disclosure, sponsors of this program.
00:25:09.680 But I wanted to have them on just to talk to you about an adoption that absolutely changed
00:25:18.140 their family.
00:25:20.360 Pete, Seth, how are you?
00:25:22.500 Good to have you here.
00:25:24.320 Thank you.
00:25:24.820 We were just talking about adoption and the amazing gift that is.
00:25:33.860 And you guys happen to be here, and you're from Relief Factor and big sponsors of the
00:25:38.580 program.
00:25:39.360 But we've talked about this for a long time because you went and adopted some children.
00:25:46.620 You have two biological children.
00:25:48.060 Yes.
00:25:48.600 And you and your wife decided to get children from China.
00:25:51.820 Yes.
00:25:52.220 As well.
00:25:53.520 Why and how did that happen?
00:25:55.060 Why China or why adoption?
00:25:56.540 No, why China?
00:25:57.440 China actually is, up until this point, one of the easiest countries to work with if you're
00:26:05.500 looking for children with special medical needs, because they have a very, very, very
00:26:09.940 long list of medically complicated children.
00:26:13.080 If you're looking for a healthy child, then that's not the way to go.
00:26:16.840 When we went the first time and brought home Eric, and that was six years ago, we were with
00:26:21.220 a family that had been waiting nine years for the healthy child.
00:26:24.440 So we were getting our child that was supposed to have cerebral palsy at the same time he
00:26:29.980 was getting his healthy little girl.
00:26:32.300 And how long did you wait?
00:26:34.480 A little over a year and a half, but that was largely because there were some major organizational
00:26:39.720 changes happening with the agency we were working with.
00:26:41.860 It should have taken about a year, but we had some hiccups.
00:26:45.180 But your son doesn't have cerebral palsy.
00:26:47.360 No.
00:26:48.040 What happened there?
00:26:49.900 Um, we had, um, the experience of recognizing that a lot of what the medical assessment was,
00:26:59.060 was incomplete and just incorrect.
00:27:01.660 And that was the case quite a few years ago, back in six years ago, we noticed by the time
00:27:07.660 they went to go get Michael, and that was about three years later, uh, the severity of
00:27:13.220 complications were higher on average.
00:27:15.480 So when we went to, to, to bring home Eric, our first, there were a lot of children with
00:27:22.160 minor issues or less severe looking issues.
00:27:25.280 We were looking for a child that had motor control issues or vision issues.
00:27:30.960 Um, I mean, I don't, I know that sounds.
00:27:33.200 No, no, no.
00:27:33.640 Did you ask that as grandpa?
00:27:35.100 Did you ask that?
00:27:35.680 Well, we did.
00:27:36.320 We did.
00:27:36.960 I mean, Seth has always had, and Jennifer, obviously a real love for kids.
00:27:41.660 And then it was just sort of like they realized, how did you make that transition, son?
00:27:47.740 Well, I would say we were, when you go through the adoption process, um, we were on a call
00:27:53.620 with our agency and we were going over this thick sheet.
00:27:57.120 You go through identifying what medical complications you'll accept.
00:28:01.400 And we had a real key moment because at the end, at the end of the call, our, our, uh, agencies
00:28:08.940 flippantly, not flippantly, but just casually mentioned, we were the most open family they
00:28:12.920 had in the system.
00:28:14.600 Well, the way that, that waiting children, the, the adoption system works is that every
00:28:19.180 month, um, the different countries release a huge batch of children's files.
00:28:25.080 And then your age, all the agencies kind of do a land grab for files that they think might
00:28:30.860 match their families that are in their program.
00:28:34.020 And then what happens is that those files get matched with parents, hopefully, and those
00:28:38.520 that don't get matched go on the waiting child list.
00:28:41.800 So at the end of the call, we realized that we were in line and near the front of it for
00:28:47.920 children that someone else might adopt.
00:28:50.640 And that was the moment for us going, we need to get out of line because we wanted to, we
00:28:56.180 were looking for children that wouldn't have been adopted.
00:28:58.840 That's the, and.
00:29:00.120 So your first one that you thought had cerebral palsy.
00:29:03.240 Yes.
00:29:03.560 But then Michael, uh, when did, did they correct this in China?
00:29:09.020 They did.
00:29:09.620 They did.
00:29:10.140 They did.
00:29:10.640 He was in a hospital within three days of being born.
00:29:13.460 And he, he, his esophagus was attached to his lungs.
00:29:16.640 Correct.
00:29:17.040 And he had, um, a variety of other issues, including, uh, heart complications.
00:29:22.520 Um, so he's, he was far more, far more complicated than the first.
00:29:26.800 This shocks me that China actually, you know, when they did phenomenal medical work.
00:29:32.240 That's amazing.
00:29:33.160 They saved his life.
00:29:33.860 Yeah.
00:29:34.020 Within three days.
00:29:34.920 The thing that's really sad about, um, adoption out of China is that the parents know that if
00:29:41.280 they don't abandon the children, they often can't care for the kids and they can't get
00:29:47.920 the care they need and they'll die.
00:29:49.700 So, um, we have seen it multiple times where the parents have been forced to just for economic
00:29:58.040 and access to medical care.
00:29:59.420 We were with the, with the child who came with a birth note and they found out when they were
00:30:06.080 in China and we were there when it happened, they found out that he had a twin and that
00:30:11.760 the parents had even tried to sell their kidney trying to pay for his, uh, um, uh, hydrocephalus
00:30:20.480 surgeries because he had major brain problems.
00:30:23.460 Yeah.
00:30:23.920 Twins.
00:30:24.240 So they found out with a seven page letter from the parents that they had, they had a
00:30:28.520 twin and the mother's apologizing profusely in the letter saying there was nothing we could
00:30:33.700 do.
00:30:33.880 I did everything and I tried to sell my kidney to pay for your care, but I couldn't.
00:30:38.240 This was the only option to save your life.
00:30:40.960 And China stepped in.
00:30:42.380 So we've had now two children that have had legitimate, very significant problems and
00:30:48.780 China's medical care.
00:30:50.380 You brought Michael to the, to the States.
00:30:52.920 You found out his best friend was left behind.
00:30:55.520 Yeah.
00:30:55.620 Well, he came home and kept on talking about Lulu.
00:30:57.540 And, um, so, and, and almost all the pictures we got of Michael in China had a photo of him
00:31:05.080 with who he called Lulu.
00:31:06.920 And it was this cutest little guy with this massive three pound tumor coming off the back
00:31:12.380 of his head.
00:31:13.820 Um, but they were inseparable.
00:31:15.960 You could tell that they were doing everything together, holding hands, doing this, and actually
00:31:19.380 looking after little babies together.
00:31:20.840 It was quite a story.
00:31:23.220 It got to the point that when we were going back to go for a third adoption, we didn't
00:31:28.600 think he was available.
00:31:29.820 We had been inquiring about who we were calling Lulu.
00:31:33.540 Um, but he wasn't adoptable.
00:31:35.780 Well, we started the process just before Thanksgiving, went, um, to Christmas and came back and picked
00:31:41.540 up the process again.
00:31:42.320 Cause it's a, it's like six to nine months of paperwork.
00:31:44.760 And we picked the process back up and our agency said, Oh, by the way, Lulu isn't Lulu.
00:31:50.420 Lulu is TNU and he's available.
00:31:54.440 Uh, you know, his files like an inch and a half thick, but do you want to look at it?
00:31:59.720 Uh, that was a shock to us.
00:32:01.680 Um, but we knew who he was.
00:32:04.340 And so there was, um, when we played the video, once we went through this process, we didn't
00:32:09.200 tell our children what we were doing for obvious reasons.
00:32:11.200 When we played the video of who we call Jimmy now running through the orphanage, as soon
00:32:18.180 as I hit play, my oldest daughter exploded in tears and said, that's Lulu.
00:32:23.120 We're adopting Lulu.
00:32:24.340 And it was one of the most impacting moments in our family.
00:32:28.160 It was like, yeah, we were totally in on this kid from the beginning.
00:32:31.220 So that was a year ago, a few weeks ago.
00:32:33.580 Surgeons last year performed surgery on him to remove that tumor.
00:32:38.260 Yeah.
00:32:38.440 Within a couple of months of coming home, they were able to take the tumor, most of the tumor
00:32:44.160 off, uh, and do repair.
00:32:46.920 We were told, and this was actually a big reason why we were able to move forward is we were
00:32:51.120 told our Seattle area is the, one of the best places, in fact, the best place in the world
00:32:56.880 for this.
00:32:57.520 And so having the resources 25 minutes away at children's in Seattle was, um, one of the
00:33:04.620 reasons why they said you guys are a good fit and they picked us for going to get in.
00:33:09.980 So the one thing you told me, I don't know, maybe six months ago, you were talking to me,
00:33:16.680 I think it was Michael that you said you want to go back to China or you wanted to visit China.
00:33:23.920 Do you remember this story?
00:33:25.300 Yeah, this was, yeah, this was Jimmy.
00:33:27.320 Yeah.
00:33:27.860 Oh, it's Jimmy.
00:33:28.540 It was Jimmy.
00:33:29.260 Actually, uh, his language just came so quickly.
00:33:31.920 It blew her mind.
00:33:32.740 And we talked about going back to China.
00:33:34.540 We talk about China a lot and he was quite resistant to that because he didn't understand
00:33:40.160 he was staying home.
00:33:42.020 That's actually been the challenge of adopting a five-year-old is that permanence was something
00:33:48.200 we had to teach him.
00:33:48.880 We've, we've had to use a lot of different verbal constructs to communicate the idea of
00:33:53.860 permanence of I'm your forever father.
00:33:57.300 And what's been unbelievable through this is how he gets it and then how he responds.
00:34:04.180 And that's the thing that we, you know, when we were talking a few months ago about being
00:34:10.180 able to maybe talk about this, I want people to understand the unspeakable, indescribable
00:34:16.220 joy and experience, the distinct parenting experience of someone who didn't have a home,
00:34:23.800 finding a home and looking at you as father, there's a look when they flip.
00:34:29.720 And it's something that you don't think about with your bio children because it's implied.
00:34:35.060 It just, it happens more naturally.
00:34:36.500 They expect to be taken care of.
00:34:37.800 They expect to be fed.
00:34:38.740 They expect permanence.
00:34:39.740 They, they anticipate impermanence.
00:34:41.300 And when you have to train a child on permanence and it works, it's mind blowing.
00:34:47.480 And as we've tried to expose as many people to this, because one of the things that we
00:34:52.400 were going through when we were preparing to bring Jimmy home was people thought we were
00:34:56.300 crazy, truly crazy, supportive, but crazy.
00:35:00.620 But there was another family that we were in touch with that had far more children in the
00:35:06.580 home with far more complications.
00:35:09.480 And I reflected with my wife and I said, that really helped kind of normalize it a bit to
00:35:14.320 it.
00:35:14.420 That, that helped knowing that this family that has to travel in a passenger van with
00:35:20.100 hospital visits constantly, they're thriving.
00:35:23.320 It helped.
00:35:24.380 And so part of it for us was wanting to tell people, you know, I was just talking to someone
00:35:30.340 about adoption recently and they wanted to know about how you get to that point.
00:35:33.460 And I said, don't start with what you think you can do.
00:35:36.020 Start with me, what you think you're supposed to do, because you will assess what you think
00:35:42.460 you can do incorrectly.
00:35:43.520 Because unfortunately what happens is that you link that with what limitation you want
00:35:49.400 to do.
00:35:50.340 It's, it's too complicated.
00:35:52.040 And we thankfully had gone through a lot of spiritual growth that Jesus had drawn us to
00:36:02.680 a position where it was very clear.
00:36:05.800 I am here for that.
00:36:07.620 And Jennifer came through a different route where she had a concern.
00:36:10.540 So are there more coming?
00:36:12.540 No.
00:36:14.440 Not immediately.
00:36:15.120 We're in the hospital.
00:36:16.460 We're in the hospital.
00:36:17.280 Not immediately.
00:36:17.760 No, we're in the hospital a lot.
00:36:19.240 Yeah.
00:36:19.440 We are, we homeschool five children.
00:36:22.480 We, that's the lie.
00:36:24.020 I apologize to my wife.
00:36:25.440 She homeschools five children.
00:36:27.560 And we're in the hospital all the time.
00:36:30.580 And I don't say that as a sympathy play.
00:36:33.340 This is worth it.
00:36:34.560 We are happy and thriving and everyone in the home wants to be in the home and is grateful.
00:36:40.200 But we have, we are at, we are at our capacity.
00:36:44.000 Really?
00:36:44.140 Because I have a couple of teenagers.
00:36:46.040 Yeah.
00:36:46.600 And they're, it's a very short waiting list.
00:36:48.680 Well, I'll tell you, someone was talking to me about trying to train their children to
00:36:52.140 be less spoiled.
00:36:52.920 And I'll say, you know what, what really was not the reason why I never factored into it.
00:36:58.920 But having participated with this, our, our children all are into this.
00:37:04.460 They, they are absolutely on board.
00:37:07.640 And watching just how the Lord has working with the family, the joy as grandparents, these
00:37:14.960 little guys are just so special, but the whole family.
00:37:18.860 It's the best thing we've ever done.
00:37:20.320 Yes.
00:37:20.740 It's stressful, but it's not stressful, right?
00:37:23.320 It's, it's joyful.
00:37:24.700 If, if you are thinking at all about children and, um, maybe having a hard time getting pregnant
00:37:32.520 or whatever, I urge you, best thing in my life, adoption, best thing in your life.
00:37:39.620 It's, it's, it's changed the trajectory of our family and, and, and circle the ripple
00:37:44.340 effect has been unbelievable.
00:37:45.940 Our church is ridiculously supportive.
00:37:49.120 We came back and one of my buddies who's the pastor, um, I cook a lot in the home and
00:37:53.520 he said, can you add another week of the food train?
00:37:57.120 Because we have more families that want to participate in this than you need food.
00:38:02.840 So do you mind if we extend it for another week?
00:38:05.460 You know, we had casserole stacked.
00:38:07.420 Yeah, that's great.
00:38:08.300 So the, but, but he asked, can you add it a week?
00:38:10.920 That sort of support network has completely changed the dynamic of our, our community,
00:38:15.860 our church, uh, friends, family, and our, you know, you have to go through a lot of hoops
00:38:20.780 and it is costly, but it is, it is well, unbelievable.
00:38:25.060 Well worth it.
00:38:26.080 Seth, Peter, thank you so much.
00:38:27.720 Peter, thank you.
00:38:28.500 Thank you for having us.
00:38:33.180 All right.
00:38:38.740 Thanks, uh, for listening to the Glenn Beck program.
00:38:41.180 This is the, uh, last Glenn Beck program of the decade coming up in about 40 minutes.
00:38:45.860 Uh, 45 minutes.
00:38:47.060 We have a, uh, a major announcement that you do not want to miss.
00:38:51.400 And this one's kind of urgent.
00:38:52.540 So you don't want to want to hear this one secondhand.
00:38:55.160 Uh, we have Bill O'Reilly.
00:38:56.640 We have, uh, Rudy Giuliani, Charlie Kirk, and Candace Owens still to come on today's program.
00:39:03.340 This holiday season, you want to be singing Christmas carols, not just, uh, you know,
00:39:08.720 I have my identity stolen blues.
00:39:11.860 Cyber criminals are crafty.
00:39:13.760 They're everywhere.
00:39:14.680 They have a million nasty little tricks up their sleeves.
00:39:18.120 They are, I was going to say they're like gremlins, but they're actually a little more
00:39:22.460 like Democrats, uh, that are just always trying to get to your money.
00:39:28.080 Uh, our lives are so busy and so hard.
00:39:31.180 I don't even have the time to be on the constant lookout for anything other than what I try to do in my job and with my family.
00:39:38.960 But ignorance is not bliss, I'm afraid.
00:39:42.680 It is important to understand how cybercrime is affecting all of our lives.
00:39:46.480 Identity threats are a serious issue.
00:39:49.300 Somebody's identity is stolen every two seconds, and it's not good enough just to be monitoring your credit because you will miss big things.
00:39:56.720 Fortunately, there's LifeLock.
00:39:58.660 They'll detect a wide range of identity threats, things like your social security number for sale on the dark web.
00:40:04.300 No one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses, but LifeLock sees the threats that you might miss on your own.

00:40:24.200 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
00:40:28.180 Hello, America.
00:40:54.400 It's Friday.
00:40:55.700 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:40:56.860 Bill O'Reilly is going to be joining us in just a few minutes.
00:41:00.400 I'm in West Palm at Turning Point USA.
00:41:05.360 This is an amazing group of 18 to 24-year-olds.
00:41:10.600 There were about, I think, 5,000 people in the audience last night when I gave the speech.
00:41:15.980 I gave the opening keynote, and it was—I walked out and I said, you give me hope.
00:41:22.060 This group really gives me hope.
00:41:26.860 They weren't—they didn't even exist five years ago.
00:41:30.020 And now they're literally all over the world.
00:41:32.520 I just met the Turning Point USA UK head.
00:41:39.200 And he said, I used to watch you as a kid on Fox in the UK.
00:41:44.860 My mom would let me stay up until 10 o'clock at night, and I would watch you.
00:41:49.540 And he said, because of that, I've started all of these things, and I just joined Turning Point.
00:41:56.040 It's changing the world.
00:41:57.440 Bill O'Reilly coming up next.
00:41:59.640 It's the Glenn Beck program.
00:42:12.100 Thank you very much, Hillary.
00:42:14.540 Bill O'Reilly is coming up next.
00:42:16.660 Bill O'Reilly is—I don't know if you've noticed this, but Bill is a little opinionated.
00:42:23.680 I hadn't noticed that.
00:42:24.560 Probably a little too opinionated.
00:42:25.660 Yeah, probably a little too opinionated for his own good sometimes.
00:42:30.440 But he won't listen to me, so—
00:42:32.440 Probably nothing to say this week, though.
00:42:34.520 You know, there's just nothing going on.
00:42:35.600 Well, there's nothing going on.
00:42:37.820 But he's probably, you know, he probably has been so touched and moved by the Democrats' love for the founders and the Constitution.
00:42:47.720 He's probably going to be weeping a lot of the time.
00:42:50.020 Do you think just the solemn nature of this week has got to his heart?
00:42:55.900 Did it break him down emotionally to see how solemn and sad they were to do this?
00:43:02.180 It's my understanding, and I haven't talked to a doctor yet.
00:43:05.320 It would have gotten to his heart if he had one, but I'm not sure he has one, so—
00:43:11.360 We'll see, I guess.
00:43:12.580 Yeah, we'll see.
00:43:13.580 Bill O'Reilly, still to come.
00:43:15.660 Candace Owens, Rudy Giuliani, and Charlie Kirk, all in the next 90 minutes, and a major announcement in 30 minutes.
00:43:24.060 Actually, 25.
00:43:25.360 Stand by.
00:43:26.160 Bill O'Reilly is next.
00:43:35.320 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:43:49.580 Hello, America.
00:43:51.460 It's Friday.
00:43:52.720 This is the Glenn Beck Program, live from West Palm at Turning Point USA, which is an incredible organization.
00:44:01.480 And last night, I think we had 5,000 people here, and it was just electric.
00:44:08.560 18 to 24-year-olds who are just so focused on learning history, learning about the country, spreading the word about real conservative values.
00:44:23.400 And these are the brave ones that are standing up in the universities and even in their high schools all around the country.
00:44:30.540 We'll talk more about that.
00:44:32.300 We have Rudy Giuliani on today.
00:44:34.120 We have Candace Owens.
00:44:35.640 We have Charlie Kirk.
00:44:37.380 And the one, the only, Holly the Wonder Dog.
00:44:42.560 Oh, yeah.
00:44:43.220 And the person that she keeps on a leash, Bill O'Reilly, in one minute.
00:44:49.960 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:44:55.340 Imagine yourself now standing at the edge of a lake.
00:44:59.120 And the fog is just creeping over the lake.
00:45:02.420 And you see it, the steam coming off the lake as it's beginning to warm up and the fog burning off.
00:45:11.200 Next to you, there's your son.
00:45:17.080 Maybe, maybe your family.
00:45:19.740 Five-gallon bucket filled with water and the fish that you spent all morning catching.
00:45:24.000 You pull out your phone there in the middle of nowhere and you realize, this is the first time I've looked at my phone all morning.
00:45:32.220 I've been up for hours.
00:45:34.680 You enjoy that for a minute.
00:45:37.760 And then you just open up the app and you fire up your RecTech grill remotely.
00:45:44.320 You tell your son, hey, let's pack everything up.
00:45:47.640 Let's go home.
00:45:48.340 And when we get home, I'm going to cook some of this trout.
00:45:52.220 We'll have breakfast at home.
00:45:54.140 And your son's smile says it all.
00:45:59.180 This is the kind of moment that you yearn for.
00:46:04.700 At least I do.
00:46:06.360 That special moment between you and a member of the family that you'll never forget.
00:46:11.540 Somehow or another, the trout just tastes better than it actually probably really is.
00:46:19.040 Is it that special moment or is it your RecTech grill?
00:46:23.560 Probably in this case, the RecTech grill.
00:46:26.180 When you have a RecTech, you have a solid, heavy-built, quality grill that uses real wood, easy to use, high-tech.
00:46:35.000 You can control the temperature remotely.
00:46:37.740 It makes grilling perfection.
00:46:39.380 This holiday season, give the gift that's sure to bring you and your family and your friends closer together.
00:46:46.220 Get a RecTech grill.
00:46:48.660 Do the research.
00:46:49.700 People in the know, choose RecTech.
00:46:52.060 RecTech is far and away the best bang for your buck.
00:46:55.000 Far and away.
00:46:56.100 Don't make a $1,000 mistake.
00:46:58.260 Make sure you check out R-E-C-T-E-C grills with an S.
00:47:04.680 RecTechgrills.com.
00:47:09.380 Bill O'Reilly now joins us.
00:47:24.900 His final thought for the decade with a special appearance from Holly the Terror Dog.
00:47:30.720 And welcome to the program.
00:47:32.800 Bill O'Reilly, how are you?
00:47:33.840 So, Beck, I'm very prayerful.
00:47:37.100 That's how I am.
00:47:38.300 I'm praying.
00:47:40.300 I'm prayerful.
00:47:41.540 I knew you were going to say this.
00:47:43.620 Yeah.
00:47:44.040 And I'm praying for you and Stu.
00:47:46.500 Are you wearing a black dress?
00:47:49.020 No, I'm not.
00:47:50.180 I don't have one.
00:47:51.180 Okay.
00:47:51.460 All right.
00:47:53.640 Holly does.
00:47:54.840 Anyway.
00:47:55.480 Okay.
00:47:56.080 I'm praying for you and Stu because, you know, you guys spent about three and a half minutes
00:48:01.140 maligning me.
00:48:02.800 And, you know, in the Christmas season, I just think that...
00:48:06.520 You were on the phone?
00:48:08.180 Yeah.
00:48:09.360 Yeah.
00:48:09.960 I was hearing it.
00:48:11.780 Yeah.
00:48:12.580 Somebody should alert me when you're holding.
00:48:14.380 Yeah.
00:48:14.880 Anyway.
00:48:16.060 So, Bill, I'm excited to talk to you because this has been an incredible week.
00:48:20.440 I have a major announcement coming up in the bottom of the hour, so we're going to have
00:48:23.980 to cut this short, but I want to hear your thoughts on the sad, solemn burden, the burden
00:48:33.020 of this beautiful, glorious constitution given to us by these genius founding fathers that
00:48:40.320 they all adore in the Democratic Party.
00:48:43.400 Did you weep for them?
00:48:46.880 No.
00:48:47.360 So, you know, I'm sitting here as an American, as a historian, and as a pundit, all right?
00:48:56.440 So, I have a three-pronged opinion.
00:49:01.200 Okay.
00:49:01.540 And I'm looking at it from an American, let's take that first, bad for the country, everything
00:49:07.560 just not getting us anywhere, not helping anyone advance their lives.
00:49:13.600 Would everyone agree with that?
00:49:15.900 Yes.
00:49:16.240 Yes.
00:49:17.160 Okay?
00:49:17.760 Because you're not going to get them out of there.
00:49:20.540 You know, you can do whatever you want, Nancy.
00:49:22.680 It's not happening.
00:49:23.780 The Senate's not going to boot them.
00:49:25.760 All right.
00:49:25.940 And I think, Bill, wait, wait, wait, Bill, do you agree with me if they actually had a
00:49:32.000 case, I mean, a solid case, that he was colluding, that he was doing anything with Russia
00:49:37.460 or Ukraine?
00:49:38.880 They could have gotten him out.
00:49:40.520 But this is a sham.
00:49:41.840 Yep.
00:49:44.380 Okay.
00:49:45.060 So, there are, and that's my next point as a historian.
00:49:49.460 So, I look and I see, because I've written eight history books, the most successful nonfiction
00:49:56.620 book series of all time.
00:49:58.800 And then I want to tell everybody, I really appreciate Stu ordering all eight books for Christmas.
00:50:03.220 That was really nice, Stu.
00:50:04.700 Thank you.
00:50:05.140 Do you remember when you said to me, do you remember when you said to me, Beck, what are
00:50:10.420 you doing writing all these books?
00:50:11.840 And I'm like, Bill, you got to write books.
00:50:14.360 I mean, I'm telling you, this is the thing.
00:50:16.980 Right.
00:50:17.540 Do you remember that?
00:50:18.360 I don't remember that, Beck, but it sounds like something I would say and you would say.
00:50:24.320 All right.
00:50:24.960 So, as a historian, I go, oh, oh, the two convictions in the House were obstruction of Congress, all
00:50:37.040 right?
00:50:37.620 However, because the president has executive privilege, he doesn't have to answer subpoenas
00:50:45.060 from anyone.
00:50:46.960 Anyone.
00:50:47.320 He can say, no, these were private conversations, and if you'd like to take it into federal court,
00:50:54.140 we'll litigate it there, and the case would be won in a day, all right?
00:50:58.100 Because he has executive privilege.
00:51:00.260 I was talking to Rudy Giuliani last night, and he said, you know what?
00:51:05.280 One of the things is that they say that he was obstructing Congress on, that I wouldn't
00:51:10.120 turn over all of my personal papers to them.
00:51:13.940 He's like, I'm his personal attorney.
00:51:16.320 It's called attorney-client privilege.
00:51:18.600 I'd be disbarred if I did that.
00:51:21.840 Well, look, I think anybody with any frame of reference about the country and about legal
00:51:27.640 matters knows there wasn't, it's not possible to have an obstruction of Congress charge lodged
00:51:34.560 if you have executive privilege.
00:51:36.240 All right.
00:51:36.700 And then the next one is abuse of power.
00:51:39.640 Well, every single president, Beck, everyone could have been impeached on that.
00:51:47.200 And I gave four examples.
00:51:48.460 I don't want to run too much and take your time.
00:51:51.580 I know you have a special announcement to make.
00:51:54.960 That sounds hostile.
00:51:55.840 Remember, I have you trapped on a, I have you trapped on a cruise ship.
00:52:01.920 So anything that you do to me, I'm going to make, I'm going to make that the cruise from
00:52:06.180 hell for you.
00:52:07.100 Well, I've got a bodyguard, Beck, so very careful.
00:52:12.660 Anyway, if you want to know abuse of power of any president, hit me with the name.
00:52:18.220 George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, JFK.
00:52:23.840 Hit me with a name and I'll tell you how they abuse their power.
00:52:26.500 Okay, I'm going to hit you with a name.
00:52:28.920 George Washington.
00:52:29.820 I want to hear that.
00:52:30.660 Now, George Washington, remember, when he won the presidency, there was no popular vote
00:52:37.840 because there wasn't any country, really.
00:52:41.100 We had won the war, but the precincts weren't set up.
00:52:45.720 Nancy Pelosi was just born.
00:52:48.840 You know, it was...
00:52:50.140 I'm sorry, I didn't mean that.
00:52:52.920 It was Christmas time.
00:52:53.500 Yeah, I know.
00:52:54.480 So George Washington was told, in no uncertain terms, you are a civilian leader.
00:52:59.200 You are not to use the military.
00:53:02.900 This is the founding fathers, the guys in Philadelphia.
00:53:07.560 There was no Washington, D.C.
00:53:09.440 Said, you are going to be the first president and we're electing you, okay, because we're
00:53:13.960 the Congress, but you don't bring in your army.
00:53:19.340 Okay, George was fine with that, right?
00:53:21.600 He's the first president, first inaugural address, takes the oath of office.
00:53:24.900 And what does George do about a year later?
00:53:29.380 He marches troops into Pennsylvania, put down a whiskey rebellion.
00:53:34.120 Yeah.
00:53:34.900 Okay, which was led by you.
00:53:36.820 All right?
00:53:38.320 Well, it could have been.
00:53:39.740 And the whiskey rebellion was basically these guys in Pennsylvania said, we're not going
00:53:43.220 to pay tax on whiskey because the government says we have to.
00:53:46.640 All right, now, that should have been taken care of by the Pennsylvania militia, not by
00:53:54.140 federal troops under the president.
00:53:56.540 He could have been charged easily with abuse of power.
00:53:59.560 Okay.
00:54:00.060 It's a little pinhead-y.
00:54:01.300 I understand that.
00:54:02.900 But...
00:54:03.100 No, I mean, it was a halfway interesting story.
00:54:06.980 Halfway, okay.
00:54:07.840 Well, you know, that's better than usual, Beck, right?
00:54:10.380 Right.
00:54:10.800 I know.
00:54:11.140 I know.
00:54:11.400 Okay.
00:54:11.920 All right.
00:54:12.200 At this point, you and Stu are usually in a hammock in the land of Nod.
00:54:16.500 All right.
00:54:17.000 Go ahead.
00:54:17.460 Well, because, you know, you put us to sleep.
00:54:20.400 I got it.
00:54:20.680 I got it.
00:54:21.020 The IG Horowitz report, did you see the FISA court's response to this?
00:54:29.980 Yes, but I'm not applauding the FISA court.
00:54:32.660 They should have been out front a long time ago.
00:54:35.180 No, no, no.
00:54:35.640 I know that.
00:54:37.000 Yeah, they knew.
00:54:37.840 So now they're all in trouble because these judges had to know this was bull.
00:54:43.820 All right.
00:54:44.420 I mean, they have TV sets.
00:54:46.800 They read newspapers.
00:54:48.660 Yeah.
00:54:49.260 They listen to the Glenn Beck program.
00:54:51.560 In fact, all of the FISA judges just texted me, what's the special announcement?
00:54:57.180 I can't tell you.
00:54:57.640 Yeah, I have to tell you.
00:54:58.600 Well, you tell them, just keep listening in 14 minutes.
00:55:01.580 Yes.
00:55:02.380 We get the fathead off from his blubbering, whatever you're talking about.
00:55:06.100 Oh, look at this.
00:55:06.320 Father Christmas.
00:55:07.940 Thank you.
00:55:08.740 Fathead.
00:55:09.760 Very, very good.
00:55:12.580 So, no, it's full of Christmas jelly.
00:55:16.000 So it's not actually fat.
00:55:17.580 Okay.
00:55:18.220 So here's the thing.
00:55:21.440 How do you feel about the FBI, the fact that not a single field agent blew the whistle on what was going on?
00:55:30.240 There was no, still, the field agents should be standing up and demanding justice because their reputation is at stake.
00:55:41.800 Well, during the actual process, it would have been fired had they done that.
00:55:45.840 So I understand the agents, you know, if you get out of line, the FBI, you go against the hierarchy, you're done.
00:55:51.540 Or you're reassigned to Fargo, North Dakota.
00:55:54.220 Nice town, but it's a little brisk.
00:55:57.400 So I'm not so concerned about that.
00:56:00.220 What I am concerned about is the Durham report, where I can't see how McCabe and Comey are not going to be indicted.
00:56:08.920 I mean, maybe they won't be, but I can't see it.
00:56:13.180 They absolutely are responsible for this bogus stuff being given to the FISA judges and absolutely responsible for illegal wiretapping surveillance of the Trump campaign.
00:56:26.720 And so I figure that Durham is going to find that out because now the FBI agents are going to give these guys up.
00:56:34.040 You know they're going to give them up.
00:56:35.440 They're not going to protect Comey and McCabe fired, so I expect that will happen in the late spring, early summer.
00:56:43.500 I will tell you, Comey has been remarkable in this, acting as if he was an observer.
00:56:49.480 You know, he comes on and I just found this out.
00:56:52.820 You know, and he epitomizes what Washington, D.C. is.
00:56:56.820 He just epitomizes the bureaucracy, the two-faced, the, you know, oh, I'm so objective and I don't have.
00:57:05.100 Oh, come on, man.
00:57:06.820 You know, I really, it just, it's ridiculous.
00:57:10.180 The whole thing is absurd.
00:57:11.360 I know nobody watched this last night, but the debate, I was impressed with Andrew Yang, who at least gets this.
00:57:20.420 He really scolded the Democratic Party last night and said, you've got to stop obsessing over Donald Trump and the impeachment because you just keep making this about, you know, corruption and he was working with the Russians to get elected, which stops you from actually asking the question, why did people vote for him?
00:57:44.960 And he went on this, went on this screed that was very well thought out that said, you know, it's because we're completely out of touch with the American people and their pain and they're sick of it.
00:57:59.100 I thought it was amazing.
00:58:00.660 You know, Yang's a smart guy, but he is caught up in all the hysteria.
00:58:05.880 You know, I tweeted last night all throughout for my audience on BillOReilly.com, which is one of the perks they get.
00:58:12.120 And at 8.42, 8.42 in the debate, began at 8 o'clock, Yang said that he favors moving Americans to higher ground, Beck.
00:58:26.200 All right.
00:58:26.880 So what if you don't want to move to higher ground?
00:58:29.760 No, I know.
00:58:30.720 Hey, I'm happy here in West Palm Beach.
00:58:33.200 I really don't want to move to Wyoming to the Tetons.
00:58:37.300 Okay?
00:58:38.200 No.
00:58:39.300 Honestly.
00:58:39.780 You're moving to higher ground.
00:58:42.120 Honestly, Bill, 10 years ago, I would have thought immediately moving to higher ground mean, you know, meaning, you know, be better people.
00:58:52.220 I didn't even consider.
00:58:54.280 No, no, no.
00:58:54.800 I know.
00:58:56.620 I didn't even consider for a second.
00:58:58.800 You have to move to higher ground.
00:59:02.400 Yeah, no, it's crazy.
00:59:04.000 All right.
00:59:04.600 Hang on.

01:00:49.080 Pause for 10 seconds, station ID.
01:00:50.480 I'm here at Turning Point USA where, Bill, I don't know if you know much about this group, but it's the high schools and the colleges, 18, 24-year-olds that are gathering here, about 5,000 of them.
01:01:17.480 So, that, I mean, these are the ones on the front lines, and they're the ones in the schools and the colleges that are standing up against this craziness.
01:01:25.700 It is, they are electric.
01:01:28.140 They really are electric.
01:01:29.780 It's really amazing.
01:01:32.660 You don't care.
01:01:33.580 Well, it's a very good organization because we need to have diversity back.
01:01:38.840 You know that, right?
01:01:40.460 Yes.
01:01:41.700 Yes.
01:01:42.140 But, you know, it's really interesting.
01:01:43.540 When the left says diversity, they don't mean giving conservative youth a chance to speak and to debate and things like that.
01:01:53.880 That's not diversity.
01:01:55.020 No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:01:56.580 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:01:57.260 Yeah, of course.
01:01:58.360 But I'm glad you're down there.
01:01:59.860 I hope you don't frighten the urchins.
01:02:03.160 You know, I hope you have to do with you to explain you to them.
01:02:07.160 You know, it's a little bit.
01:02:09.240 You don't want to, yeah.
01:02:10.840 No, I know.
01:02:11.860 What is this iPhone thingy-majig?
01:02:15.580 I don't understand it.
01:02:17.020 There's a new survey out, Bill, that shows that 95% of women over the age of 50, 95%, plan on voting next November.
01:02:27.000 What does that mean to you?
01:02:28.520 The survey is bogus.
01:02:30.660 It was taken by the AARP.
01:02:32.640 And the reason they took the survey was to push Medicare for all.
01:02:38.980 And so they're trying to frighten all the politicians by saying, hey, these ladies are going to come out massively, which may be true.
01:02:47.360 And they're all going to vote because they don't like the health care system.
01:02:50.680 They think they're getting hosed.
01:02:52.260 So it was, you know, AARP, they sell a lot of health insurance, supplemental.
01:02:57.540 That's what this was all about, Beck.
01:02:59.160 And, by the way, the AARP backed Obamacare.
01:03:04.640 AARP also backed Obamacare.
01:03:08.220 Yes.
01:03:09.720 Yeah.
01:03:10.440 So what's going to –
01:03:12.040 Whenever you get a study or a survey out of these kinds of advocacy groups, you really have to look below the surface on what they're trying to do.
01:03:21.200 And they're trying to make more money and trying to influence policy.
01:03:24.560 And that's why this survey came out.
01:03:25.920 All right, Bill, about a minute and a half.
01:03:28.300 What is the thing you want to leave our audience with?
01:03:31.560 This is the last show of the decade.
01:03:32.840 Well, I'm going to be making her national television debut on January 4th, Discovery Channel, 8 a.m.
01:03:41.060 Talk about prime time.
01:03:43.460 So Greta Van Susteren's little program with Holly, and it should be a lot of fun.
01:03:49.020 And I want to thank you and Stu for having me on all year, and, you know, it's very nice of you guys to do it.
01:03:55.960 I think we had a lot of fun, but we make a lot of good points as well.
01:03:59.400 And I want you guys to have a nice Christmas.
01:04:02.980 Are you going to be in Utah, Beck?
01:04:04.260 Is that where you're going?
01:04:05.400 No, I'm going to Idaho.
01:04:07.960 But, yeah, I'll be in the mountains later this afternoon, and I'm thrilled.
01:04:12.300 Bill, I have to tell you, your friendship means a lot to me.
01:04:15.360 You have always dealt with me in a fair and honest way, and I appreciate you coming on all the time.
01:04:24.000 All right, well, we're going to have a lot of fun in 2020.
01:04:26.780 It's probably the most important election in our lifetime takes place.
01:04:31.140 Yeah.
01:04:31.720 Well, don't exaggerate.
01:04:33.060 I mean, about the fun we're going to have together.
01:04:37.540 Merry Christmas, everyone.
01:04:39.200 Merry Christmas, Bill.
01:04:39.980 Thanks a lot, man.
01:04:41.140 Appreciate it.
01:04:41.720 All right.
01:04:42.640 We're going to take a quick break, and then when we come back, a major announcement you do not want to miss.

01:06:30.100 Hello, America.
01:06:57.680 America, it's Friday.
01:07:01.360 For about eight months, maybe a year, I have felt strongly that I needed to do another restoring event.
01:07:11.360 We started a decade ago, a decade ago, with Restoring Honor and the Washington Mall.
01:07:18.500 Then we did Restoring Courage, and we were the first Christians to speak at the Temple Mount since 70 A.D.
01:07:30.520 Then we were the first group of people to do a spoken word concert, if you will, at Dallas Cowboys Stadium sold out.
01:07:38.820 The day I had to rent that stadium and put my name on it and think, I mean, everybody around me said,
01:07:44.200 you realize how many tickets you have to sell?
01:07:47.320 And I'm like, yes, stop saying that to me.
01:07:50.900 It was terrifying.
01:07:53.020 But that was Restoring Love.
01:07:55.660 Powerful message.
01:07:56.620 And we did Restoring Unity, and that's where we kicked off the Nazarene Fund.
01:08:03.180 We did it in Birmingham, Alabama.
01:08:07.040 This is probably the most important of the restoring events that we have done.
01:08:15.360 If you remember what Michelle Obama said in the election run-up of 2008, do you remember this?
01:08:23.320 And Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices.
01:08:26.780 We are going to have to change our conversation.
01:08:29.620 We're going to have to change our traditions, our history.
01:08:32.720 We're going to have to move into a different place.
01:08:37.460 Well, that has come true.
01:08:39.340 We have changed our history.
01:08:41.220 We have changed our traditions.
01:08:43.340 We are in a different place.
01:08:46.660 The truth has been lost.
01:08:49.700 Our God has been chased out of every public space.
01:08:54.480 And that is not America.
01:08:59.080 We're a nation that was built on an idea that all men are created equal and endowed by their creator.
01:09:05.600 We were a nation built on this vision of a nation that was a shining city on the hill.
01:09:12.340 That was different.
01:09:13.860 That all nations would look and say, look at what this nation is.
01:09:19.120 We know we've accomplished an awful lot.
01:09:22.060 We were close here and there in certain ways.
01:09:26.600 We affected the world.
01:09:28.940 When we weren't bragging about ourselves, the world noticed.
01:09:33.620 That's why France gave us the Statue of Liberty.
01:09:36.140 It was to wake the people up in France.
01:09:39.820 That's why the George Washington crossing the Delaware.
01:09:42.840 That's not an American painting.
01:09:44.800 That's a German painting.
01:09:46.580 Right after Marx did his manifesto.
01:09:49.620 That painter in Germany painted that to show the American people what happens when everyone chooses to get into a boat.
01:09:58.340 There was a great debate in the 1850s whether America was built by those who sought gold, treasures, fame, fortune, the people who came over here to rape this land.
01:10:14.700 Or were we built by the pilgrims who came here because they wanted to live a life that was free and free to worship God as they saw fit?
01:10:31.020 The pilgrims who brought kindness, good relations with Native Americans.
01:10:35.260 In fact, we had the longest treaty with Native Americans in American history at the time of the pilgrims.
01:10:41.680 And it was the Native Americans that broke that treaty, not the white man.
01:10:47.580 While Jamestown brought misery, slavery, abuse, and in the end cannibalism, the pilgrims brought something else.
01:10:58.360 And America needed to decide which is our founding.
01:11:02.340 Who were the people who came here?
01:11:05.260 Are we the root and the branches that have grown from that root?
01:11:11.100 Is our basic trunk Jamestown or Plymouth?
01:11:20.720 We decided in the Civil War in 1863, the middle of the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln is driven to his knees to the point to where he says,
01:11:30.140 What do you want from me?
01:11:32.380 And because we had lost every single battle, I think, except for one or two?
01:11:41.360 In 1863, he realized this is not about saving the Republic.
01:11:47.480 This is about freeing God's children.
01:11:51.000 And so he wrote the Emancipation Proclamation and then he called people to prayer and fasting and humiliation.
01:12:01.460 And he renewed the covenant that had been made by the pilgrims and then made again in New York City, 28 Wall Street,
01:12:10.520 by George Washington, as he laid his hand on the Bible.
01:12:13.440 It's important to know what scripture he opened that Bible to.
01:12:19.800 He was renewing that covenant.
01:12:23.620 Well, that covenant has changed us every time it was made.
01:12:27.640 And we have lost our way.
01:12:32.100 And the covenant has not been renewed since 1853.
01:12:36.160 And we have done everything.
01:12:38.200 A covenant is a contract.
01:12:40.300 It's an if-then proposal.
01:12:44.120 If we do these things, then you will protect us.
01:12:49.340 We will be your people.
01:12:50.900 God's never on anybody's side.
01:12:53.480 You have to be on his side.
01:12:57.700 So we've lost God.
01:12:59.300 But we've also lost our traditions.
01:13:00.880 I am, when I was raising my younger kids or my older kids, every Fourth of July was special.
01:13:07.740 We would go to a different American city and we would experience the fireworks and we'd make it all about history.
01:13:13.300 And I got to a point, probably 2000, I don't even know, 12, 15, where I just couldn't do it anymore.
01:13:23.840 I remember I went and it was not about America at all.
01:13:28.360 And everything that was America was James Brown or Bruce Springsteen.
01:13:38.240 It was just a spectacle.
01:13:40.140 And I gave a speech that Fourth of July and the next day in the newspapers, they made it all about partisan politics when all I spoke about was George Washington and our founding.
01:13:53.980 And we haven't been to a Fourth of July celebration really since.
01:14:02.500 That's got to change.
01:14:04.500 Our tradition has been lost.
01:14:06.720 I spoke here last night at Turning Point USA, and I was amazed at how many people just don't know our history.
01:14:17.960 And this is a well-educated group.
01:14:22.200 But I see it all the time.
01:14:23.720 They don't know our history at all.
01:14:25.400 Our history has been taken from us.
01:14:27.260 So, I am really happy to announce that, and I truly believe in miracles.
01:14:35.180 Because of miracles that have happened in the last few weeks, I can announce today that this July 4th, Independence Day weekend,
01:14:47.160 it will happen between the 3rd, 4th, and 5th in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, we are restoring the covenant.
01:14:58.120 It's a three-day event that will be able to cover really everything.
01:15:03.260 History, you're going to learn more about history in fun and different ways.
01:15:08.720 We're going to start with a Shabbat meal.
01:15:11.800 It's going to be hosted by several people that you know.
01:15:16.180 I can't wait to tell you who's all involved in this.
01:15:19.760 Then there's going to be breakout sessions and different speakers and a fireworks show done my way.
01:15:28.360 I'm designing and we're orchestrating all brand new music, and it's going to be music, spoken word, artifacts, history, as we paint it in the sky.
01:15:41.800 And then, Sunday morning, we'll have a Sunday service outdoors.
01:15:49.220 Now, here's the thing.
01:15:51.200 We are so, so grateful to Cumberland and Straban Township, where Gettysburg is.
01:15:59.320 They have been so, I mean, wow are these people.
01:16:03.320 I can't wait for you to meet the people of Gettysburg and these townships, because they are just so rock solid.
01:16:09.640 I mean, it's a small town, a really small town, and they're just so salt of the earth kind of people.
01:16:17.100 They've been bending over backwards to make this happen, and we can't thank them enough.
01:16:21.640 And I can't wait for you to see the downtown and see all the things that are happening there.
01:16:25.840 But it is extremely limited space, and we are limited to a certain number of people just because of the roads are so small getting in and out.
01:16:39.380 So, I'm urging you today to go to glenbeck.com slash restore.
01:16:46.760 glenbeck.com slash restore.
01:16:49.780 You'll find out all of the information there.
01:16:52.580 We have put on reserve hotels in like a 40, 50-mile radius because they're scarce.
01:17:02.440 We've also secured places where you can come with a tent and camp.
01:17:07.780 You can bring your RV.
01:17:09.600 And all the way from that to a special week-long event, as we try to pay for this event, a week-long event where you're with me, David Barton, and Tim Ballard and other special guests that will start in Plymouth.
01:17:24.820 A special private train will then take us to Boston, then the next day it takes us to New York City, then the next day Independence Hall, and then finally on Friday we will arrive in Gettysburg.
01:17:39.700 There's something for all families, all budgets, everything.
01:17:44.220 I urge you to secure your place with a $5 donation to the Nazarene Fund and OUR that will hold your place in line because it will be first come, first serve, and it's extremely limited.
01:17:58.200 So, please go there now, glenbeck.com slash restore, and I will see you this Independence Weekend.
01:18:07.180 All right, Charlie Kirk is coming up in just a second.
01:18:09.760 I want to just say hi to Chad Prather, who is here, and just, this is an amazing crowd here, isn't it?

01:19:37.180 Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, joins me now.
01:20:05.200 How are you, Charlie?
01:20:06.180 Great, Glenn.
01:20:06.740 You were excellent last night.
01:20:07.800 Thank you.
01:20:08.120 Thank you.
01:20:08.600 Thank you.
01:20:09.500 It was, I meant what I said when I walked out on stage and said, you give me hope.
01:20:15.380 Oh, thank you.
01:20:15.980 It is, it's, you've put together, what, 5,000 18 to 24-year-olds.
01:20:22.500 Yes.
01:20:22.780 And they're from all over, not only the country, the world now, and they're the fresh troops.
01:20:31.340 This is the generation that's going to fight the battle.
01:20:34.040 That's right.
01:20:34.100 And they're fighting on the front lines for freedom and liberty.
01:20:36.680 And you gave a very compelling interactive history talk.
01:20:40.860 And you and I were talking off camera how dangerous it is that students don't know history, and then they think that history starts with them.
01:20:49.040 You know who else tried to do that?
01:20:50.480 The French Revolution.
01:20:51.800 Remember, they wanted to start time over.
01:20:53.820 Yeah.
01:20:54.180 It was a robust spear idea.
01:20:56.300 In 1792, history starts with us.
01:20:58.380 Everything before it is a mistake.
01:21:00.760 Religion, morals, we're the most important people in the world.
01:21:03.860 Right.
01:21:04.080 And you see that through Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
01:21:06.780 She says, well, everyone before us has screwed everything up.
01:21:10.060 Well, not so fast, my friend.
01:21:11.700 That kind of hubris, that kind of pride will lead a culture to destruction.
01:21:16.800 Greta Thunberg.
01:21:18.300 She's a frightening, sad case.
01:21:23.140 I mean, here's this girl who says, how dare you?
01:21:25.900 You've stolen my future.
01:21:27.320 Nobody's stolen your future.
01:21:28.640 You make the future.
01:21:30.240 Correct.
01:21:30.520 And she wrote a piece, co-authored with a university professor from the University of Texas, Austin,
01:21:35.880 and another climate activist, where she said it's not even about climate change.
01:21:39.880 It's about deconstructing a colonial patriarchy that's rooted in racism.
01:21:44.920 That's the real agenda there.
01:21:46.380 But, Glenn, what you did so brilliantly last night, what you've done for years,
01:21:49.740 is you talk about the heroic stories that have built our country,
01:21:52.800 and that we're not just like every other country.
01:21:54.380 We are exceptional.
01:21:55.540 Walt Disney, Jesse Owens, these heroes that have built our country.
01:21:58.980 And most students are not taught this in any form whatsoever.
01:22:03.480 I was shocked.
01:22:04.340 Candace Owens said, how many are taking Western Civ, have taken a Western Civ class?
01:22:10.840 One hand went up in a crowd of 5,000.
01:22:14.460 In fact, they're being told and taught that Western Civ is evil and is wrong.
01:22:18.340 But this whole society that has been so good for humanity and for those Christians out there,
01:22:23.700 so good for the gospel of Jesus Christ, so good for the advancement of a moral order, is a mistake.
01:22:30.420 And the failure to teach our history means that the future will be put in jeopardy.
01:22:35.800 So, Charlie, how can I help you?
01:22:38.820 How can this audience help you?
01:22:40.300 You being here, you doing your show, you speaking here has been such an amazing blessing to us and our organization.
01:22:46.260 How can the audience help?
01:22:47.580 Well, if they'd like to, you know, chip in, it's tpusa.com.
01:22:51.260 It's the website.
01:22:52.380 You can get engaged in a variety of different ways.
01:22:54.200 And probably the most important is get your students and your family members involved with Turning Point USA.
01:22:58.760 It is, your growth is unprecedented.
01:23:02.300 You are, you're what the Tea Party dreamt of.
01:23:06.980 I mean, this organization didn't exist five years ago.
01:23:10.240 And it's worldwide.
01:23:11.800 Yes, sir.
01:23:12.540 Yeah.
01:23:13.040 It's, I can't, I can't tell you how.
01:23:14.680 In the UK, and they had a great victory there.
01:23:16.200 We were very happy about that.
01:23:17.880 But never bet against Americans, ever.
01:23:20.900 And that's what your stories told us last night.
01:23:22.960 And this is not supposed to happen.
01:23:24.780 The ruling class, the elites, they never thought that a movement of young people,
01:23:28.400 could be organized around conservative ideas.
01:23:31.140 Yeah.
01:23:31.380 We're going to take back our country.
01:23:32.860 And they are, they're brave.
01:23:35.860 They're not afraid.
01:23:37.120 Yes.
01:23:37.380 They are not afraid.
01:23:38.480 I admire you and everybody at Turning Point.
01:23:40.780 Thank you so much.
01:23:40.920 You've done a great job.
01:23:42.020 Thank you so much, Charlie.
01:23:42.980 Thank you.
01:23:43.540 All right.

01:26:13.660 America's mayor, a guy who put the Gambino crime family behind bars, and I think, Mr. Mayor, if you don't mind me saying, I think you're facing a more dangerous foe today than the Gambino crime family.
01:26:35.540 There's no question about it.
01:26:36.540 I'll tell you why.
01:26:37.460 First of all, they are capable of murder.
01:26:39.540 I mean, they murder people.
01:26:40.740 The Ukrainian and Russian organized crime.
01:26:43.560 It kind of overlaps.
01:26:45.460 Number two, they have media protection that the mafia never had.
01:26:48.960 Yes.
01:26:49.380 I mean, basically, 80% of the media in this country is complicit in their ability to commit these crimes because they don't report them.
01:26:55.640 You know, when Donald Trump said the media is an enemy of the country, you know, I thought that was really harsh words, and I didn't think it was phrased exactly right.
01:27:06.760 I'm telling you, 100% agree with you.
01:27:09.460 Of course, I was with him all through the campaign, and when he first said it, I used to tell him, please temper it down.
01:27:14.480 Yes, yeah.
01:27:15.460 He's understating.
01:27:16.640 He is.
01:27:17.240 He's understating.
01:27:17.920 What I've seen here, look, it's been clear since December 8th of 2015 that Joe Biden and Hunter Biden were involved in corruption in the Ukraine.
01:27:31.040 The New York Times wrote it.
01:27:32.820 They said Hunter Biden is getting paid by the most crooked company in the Ukraine, by the most crooked guy in the Ukraine, who's a fugitive, and his father is in charge of giving out the money in the Ukraine.
01:27:43.680 It takes an IQ of about 10 to figure out that that's a crime.
01:27:49.300 So I'm holding a document.
01:27:50.880 And they covered it up.
01:27:51.920 I'm holding a document here.
01:27:54.300 I mean, they call this a conspiracy theory.
01:27:56.940 This is from the prosecutor's office of the Republic of Latvia.
01:28:01.180 It is the Office for Prevention of Laundering of Proceeds Derived from Criminal Activity.
01:28:06.360 It has Burisma and Hunter Biden's name and his partners all over it.
01:28:14.520 What is it?
01:28:15.280 What that is, it's a notification from the government of Latvia to the government of Ukraine about two or three weeks before Shokin was fired that they have suspicion that there's a vast money laundering transaction.
01:28:26.940 Eventually, I have the documents there that show it.
01:28:30.060 Those are in Ukrainian.
01:28:31.820 I translated them.
01:28:32.680 I even translated them myself with my app.
01:28:34.700 And what they basically say is, make it simple, $14.3 million was moved from Ukraine into a phony company in Latvia owned by Viktor Pinchuk, another oligarch.
01:28:48.620 It was made to look like a loan.
01:28:52.680 It then moved to Cyprus.
01:28:54.480 And then it was distributed to the board members.
01:28:57.480 $14.3 million.
01:28:58.840 Except there are two names and no numbers next to it.
01:29:01.380 Hunter Biden, Devin Archer.
01:29:02.620 The prosecutor calls the Cypriot office and the Cypriot office is told, oh, you know the U.S. embassy doesn't let me give you information on Hunter Biden.
01:29:13.820 Devin Archer gets convicted a year later in the Southern District of New York for insider trading.
01:29:22.140 We went and got the records of that trial.
01:29:24.460 In the records of that trial, there's a $3.2 million deposit on that date from Cyprus.
01:29:30.080 It's clearly the money.
01:29:31.820 We've now been able to prove it the other way around.
01:29:34.240 So you know what you call that?
01:29:35.520 You call that a slam dunk money laundering case.
01:29:38.260 When I was a U.S. attorney, I give this to one of my young prosecutors, three-day trial.
01:29:42.940 I don't even need a witness.
01:29:43.860 I just have to authenticate the documents.
01:29:46.180 I could give this to my most incompetent assistant U.S. attorney, and they come back with a conviction, even if his name is Hunter Biden.
01:29:52.440 And I am outraged at the fact that Joe Biden isn't under investigation.
01:29:58.940 This is ridiculous.
01:29:59.900 It shows not only is the double standard applied to the media, they've intimidated our law enforcement.
01:30:06.000 The man confessed to bribery.
01:30:07.920 He confessed in the open to bribery.
01:30:11.220 And I have the –
01:30:12.440 Go ahead.
01:30:13.620 They sort of, like, don't understand who I am.
01:30:18.460 I have the records.
01:30:19.880 This isn't Rudy Giuliani.
01:30:21.160 This is the Latvian government.
01:30:23.320 I've got a record here of an Austrian doctor who's the foremost doctor on poisoning.
01:30:28.700 He saved the life of Viktor Yanovich.
01:30:32.300 You remember the man?
01:30:32.820 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:30:33.180 The guy whose face was –
01:30:34.440 A very good man.
01:30:35.080 He could have saved –
01:30:36.220 He could have.
01:30:36.840 I went there.
01:30:39.340 CIA briefing said he was the one man who could save Ukraine if Putin didn't kill him.
01:30:46.340 Well, Putin didn't kill him, but he took his life away.
01:30:48.680 He took his face away.
01:30:49.860 Yeah, yeah.
01:30:50.660 The doctor's name is Dr. Korpan.
01:30:53.780 I remember it all these days because the name of the facility is the Rudolf Clinic.
01:31:00.640 He's the foremost expert.
01:31:02.060 I just would like you to read the primary diagnosis of Mr. Shokin as of three months ago when he got rushed to the hospital.
01:31:11.400 Dear sir or madam, primary diagnosis, mercury poisoning.
01:31:18.800 The doctor says there's no other way it could have happened but with poisoning.
01:31:22.660 I have the record in German that shows that the normal amount of mercury in your system is two.
01:31:28.300 He was at 9.2.
01:31:29.780 He was at the point where his liver is already deteriorating.
01:31:33.380 There's no question they attempted to kill him.
01:31:36.160 This is why he's in – because we've tried to reach out to him.
01:31:39.000 And our embassy will not allow him to come to the United States because our embassy is in this up to their neck,
01:31:45.000 including the present one with Ambassador Phoney Taylor who testified.
01:31:51.180 Phoney Taylor is holding up this man coming to the U.S.
01:31:55.800 because he can testify – this is not an unknown, anonymous whistleblower.
01:32:03.480 Right.
01:32:03.980 This is a man who's willing to tell you his name, Victor Shokin.
01:32:06.760 He's willing to put his hand on the Bible.
01:32:08.520 He's willing to take the risk of perjury and he's willing to say,
01:32:10.940 Joe Biden bribed my president in order to get me fired.
01:32:16.540 And he is also, and his colleagues, four or five more of them, able to show us how much more money went to the Bidens than we even know.
01:32:24.260 All right.
01:32:24.600 Including money laundered money.
01:32:25.920 So, Rudy, you and I were talking about this in a hallway yesterday.
01:32:31.640 I was actually talking to your security and I said, please keep this man safe, please.
01:32:36.760 Because this is much bigger than the president.
01:32:41.940 This is way beyond Donald Trump and Hunter Biden and Joe Biden.
01:32:46.520 This truly is – if this is not exposed, we become a Mexico or a Ukraine.
01:32:55.160 We are going down a road where you can't trust law enforcement.
01:32:59.440 You can't trust our courts.
01:33:01.000 You can't trust our media.
01:33:03.160 You don't know who's dirty and who's not.
01:33:05.800 And there is no real justice.
01:33:08.520 We have to clean this up.
01:33:10.660 You haven't exaggerated it one bit.
01:33:13.260 We are destroying equal justice under the law.
01:33:15.860 We've been doing it at least since the Clinton fix.
01:33:19.000 Yes.
01:33:19.700 But then, on the other hand, they'll go after Republicans.
01:33:23.380 Oh, I know.
01:33:24.100 For things that are marginal or things they make up.
01:33:27.100 Right.
01:33:27.440 Look what they did to Flynn.
01:33:29.300 Look what they did to Papadopoulos.
01:33:30.820 He shouldn't have even spent 14 days in jail.
01:33:33.160 Carter Page.
01:33:34.240 Life is destroyed.
01:33:35.600 And I have reports in the newspapers of about 10 crimes that I am allegedly being investigated for by the Southern District of New York.
01:33:42.760 And in each case, I can dispositively prove I didn't do it.
01:33:47.020 I mean, one thing.
01:33:48.100 I have vast financial holdings in Ukraine.
01:33:51.760 You know what I said jokingly?
01:33:53.880 But they can't tell jokes.
01:33:54.920 If you find it, I'll give you half.
01:33:56.420 I don't have vast – I have no holdings in Ukraine.
01:34:00.200 Right.
01:34:00.460 Totally untrue.
01:34:01.700 They have evidence of a meeting with the president in which the president deputized Lev Parnas.
01:34:07.360 There was no such meeting.
01:34:09.320 There was supposed to be five people at the meeting.
01:34:12.080 Four people say it didn't take place.
01:34:14.060 Only his lawyer says it took place.
01:34:16.020 They go after liar, after liar, after liar.
01:34:18.760 They credit the liar over the word of the president like they did with Michael Cohen.
01:34:23.240 These are – these are sick people.
01:34:28.020 Trump derangement syndrome is – I know the Southern District of New York.
01:34:33.940 It's Ivy League.
01:34:36.100 It's very brilliant, wonderful lawyers.
01:34:39.560 They think they're smarter than the world.
01:34:41.380 And, of course, they're perfect candidates for Trump derangement syndrome.
01:34:45.900 And what happens is you lose all logic.
01:34:49.380 But I don't think it's just Trump derangement syndrome.
01:34:52.380 I think it is we control the president.
01:34:56.720 We control the agenda.
01:34:58.860 He's coming in and blowing this nice little system up that we have going.
01:35:04.860 And you're not getting away with it.
01:35:07.120 It's why –
01:35:07.620 Oh, they'll try to kill you.
01:35:08.700 Yes.
01:35:09.900 Like Mr. Shulkin.
01:35:10.940 Or they'll try to destroy you financially like Mr. Papadopoulos.
01:35:14.040 Or they'll try to destroy you in any way they can.
01:35:19.180 And I think the problem, Glenn, is it's like cancer.
01:35:22.600 There are different reasons for it.
01:35:24.300 They're not all the same.
01:35:25.560 Some of them are out of control, crazy ideologues.
01:35:28.540 They really believe it.
01:35:30.780 Some of them are Alinsky socialists.
01:35:36.200 You know, anything because we're morally superior to you.
01:35:40.340 Right.
01:35:40.560 And some of them are just plain crooks.
01:35:42.740 And the ones in the Ukraine are just plain crooks.
01:35:44.660 The reason I'm in a lot of trouble in Ukraine is I uncovered an eight-year-long money laundering system that started probably in 2012 with $7.5 billion being laundered by Yanukovych, the president at the time, pro-Russian president at the time.
01:36:00.580 He laundered it through American institutions, interestingly, controlled by Democrats, controlled by one person who just came out of the Obama administration.
01:36:09.760 Lots of connections to Democrats.
01:36:12.840 $7.5 billion is getting laundered through these two particular banks.
01:36:17.680 9.5% interest on that to all the people participating every year.
01:36:23.100 We know the Ukrainian people who participate in it.
01:36:25.580 We know because I'm very close to the Ukrainian authorities.
01:36:28.900 The U.S. has refused to be involved in that investigation.
01:36:35.060 The U.S. Justice Department, FBI, refuses to be involved.
01:36:39.980 I have letters here from prosecutors to the Justice Department begging them to get involved in that.
01:36:46.900 They went to the Southern District with these allegations against Biden two months before me.
01:36:52.220 The Southern District turned them away.
01:36:54.180 I know.
01:36:54.400 We could have already had this whole thing investigated.
01:36:58.800 They keep saying, the Southern District said this and Congress said this, that when they looked at these documents, it was nothing but a conspiracy theory.
01:37:06.040 It's not.
01:37:06.940 If you come out and tell me how these documents are false, but that's an awful lot of documents that are false.
01:37:14.800 Well, then you have to have an investigation.
01:37:16.020 Right.
01:37:16.420 Like they say, the charges against Biden have been debunked.
01:37:20.400 Right.
01:37:20.860 Show me the report.
01:37:21.680 Right.
01:37:22.220 I'd love to see it.
01:37:22.760 I want to show you one other document that I think probably gets the President of the United States angrier than anything else.
01:37:27.700 And you'll see why in a minute.
01:37:29.060 This is an accounting report going back to 2017.
01:37:32.980 This is during the Obama administration.
01:37:34.580 The Ukrainians located $5.3 billion in foreign aid that was being misspent.
01:37:40.480 About 80% of that is our money.
01:37:44.520 That's what he keeps saying about he was worried about how Ukraine spends money.
01:37:48.340 Here's the proof.
01:37:49.720 Not, you know, Adam Schiff lies.
01:37:52.360 Here's the proof.
01:37:53.500 Now, the Ukrainians started to investigate this.
01:37:56.840 Two people from our embassy went to see them and told them, don't investigate it.
01:38:03.220 We don't care.
01:38:05.020 We don't care about the $5.3 billion of our taxpayers' money.
01:38:08.120 And you say, well, why would they do that?
01:38:09.680 And then there was even a lot more pressure.
01:38:11.220 Why would they do that?
01:38:12.600 Because what this shows is that our embassy was giving this money not to the government.
01:38:17.680 They were giving it to NGOs.
01:38:18.800 You know who the biggest NGO owner is?
01:38:21.920 Yeah, George Soros.
01:38:22.960 Oh, my God.
01:38:23.660 Anti-Semitic.
01:38:24.340 We're anti-Semitic now.
01:38:25.460 I know.
01:38:25.820 We said the word George Soros.
01:38:28.160 I'll be damned if you're going to call me anti-Semitic.
01:38:30.320 I'm not anti-Semitic.
01:38:31.660 I prosecuted Italian criminals.
01:38:33.740 I prosecuted Jewish criminals.
01:38:35.360 I prosecuted every kind of criminal imaginable.
01:38:38.380 I even prosecuted some Martian criminals, I think.
01:38:42.260 Rudy.
01:38:42.620 This money is going to Democratic NGOs.
01:38:46.100 I know.
01:38:46.980 And they waste half of it.
01:38:48.780 The government gets half of it.
01:38:51.200 And here's what the decent Ukrainians told me.
01:38:53.920 And there are a lot of decent Ukrainians.
01:38:56.400 You guys, particularly under Obama, where corruption got much worse, they will all testify.
01:39:02.200 You guys come here like Biden and you lecture us on corruption.
01:39:05.960 And then our people laugh at you because he and his son are two of the most corrupt people in the country.
01:39:10.900 They all knew he was a joke.
01:39:12.760 Okay, I know you have to go and I'm up against the time.
01:39:16.100 Will you do me?
01:39:17.060 There are many more of these.
01:39:18.300 Will you do this?
01:39:20.300 Will you?
01:39:22.360 Can you convince me that this will come out?
01:39:26.940 That these people will be judged?
01:39:31.940 And not in some hatred.
01:39:33.260 I'm going to try until I die, so they better kill me.
01:39:35.400 I mean, there's no way they shouldn't be prosecuted.
01:39:37.940 This should be in a federal court.
01:39:40.020 I know federal courts.
01:39:41.140 I know federal courts better than anybody.
01:39:42.980 I will be completely immodest and say I was the most successful U.S. attorney in the last 50 years.
01:39:48.920 These are out-and-out crimes.
01:39:50.600 If anybody's afraid of prosecuting them, you make me the special prosecutor with two people and not $35 million.
01:39:58.600 I'll prosecute every single one of them myself.
01:40:00.440 Rudy Giuliani, thank you for your service.
01:40:06.060 I'd love to cross-examine.
01:40:06.760 I watched you on stage last night, and I went, he should be the prosecutor on this because you're the guy with the facts.
01:40:17.060 It's about justice.
01:40:17.680 I know it is.
01:40:18.400 I know it is.
01:40:19.340 I hope to see you again soon.
01:40:20.860 God bless you.
01:40:21.000 You're going to see me again.
01:40:21.680 Thank you so much.
01:40:21.980 We'll go into more detail.
01:40:22.860 Yeah, great.
01:40:23.500 Thank you very much.
01:40:24.880 Ladies and gentlemen, America's mayor, Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
01:40:28.780 Thank you, sir.
01:40:30.220 All right.
01:40:30.940 Back.
01:40:31.300 Candace Owens is going to be joining us here in just a second.
01:40:34.820 Stand by.
01:40:35.580 First, let me tell you about our sponsor.
01:40:38.020 This half hour, if you would take out your phone, when I say go, just remotely start your grill from wherever you're at.
01:40:47.440 Go.
01:40:48.920 Can't do it, can you?
01:40:50.460 Rectech Grill.
01:40:51.440 If you have a Rectech Grill with Wi-Fi connectivity right from your phone, you can start it anywhere.
01:40:57.360 I could start my grill from this location in Florida and my grill in the back of my house in Dallas.
01:41:06.420 It's an amazing, amazing grill with all of the latest technology to be able to keep that temperature in that grill, even if it's being rained on at the time.
01:41:17.200 It monitors it, all of it, it gives you the best steak, the best flavor, the best smoke, the best searing.
01:41:27.080 It's a Rectech Grill.
01:41:29.220 Now, they cut out the middleman and they serve you directly.
01:41:32.320 So, by cutting out the middleman, you're going to pay the same price as, you know, its nearest competitor, but they've poured all of that money from the middleman into the grill.
01:41:42.480 So, it is far superior to its next closest competitor.
01:41:47.280 I want you to go ahead, check out all the competition, but please go online to R-E-C-T-E-C, grills.com.
01:41:55.560 Otherwise, you're going to be making a $1,000 mistake.
01:41:59.240 Rectechgrills.com.
01:42:01.220 It's with an S.
01:42:02.440 Do it now.
01:42:03.760 A grill built by grillers for grillers.
01:42:08.920 Rectechgrills.com.
01:42:10.600 10 seconds, station ID.
01:42:12.480 Let me talk to Stu here if you can.
01:42:17.680 You can.
01:42:19.540 Okay.
01:42:21.380 Hey.
01:42:25.720 We just made a major announcement about 40 minutes ago.
01:42:30.180 The website has crashed.
01:42:32.580 Please keep trying.
01:42:33.840 It is first come, first serve.
01:42:36.180 You can hold your place.
01:42:37.500 You don't have to, you don't have to do anything yet, but just with a donation of $5 and the proceeds go to save Christians in the Middle East and free slaves all over the world.
01:42:47.540 And we are going to do Restoring Honor.
01:42:51.360 It's the 10th anniversary of Restoring Honor.
01:42:55.740 We're doing Restoring the Covenant this Independence weekend, this 4th of July weekend, 2020, in Gettysburg.
01:43:04.260 It will be a history tour de force.
01:43:08.740 We are going to restore some of our traditions, our love of country, and our God, Restoring the Covenant.
01:43:18.920 Find out all of the information.
01:43:20.800 I've tweeted it out.
01:43:21.760 It's on my Facebook page.
01:43:23.100 You can find out all the details at glennbeck.com slash restore, but space is very limited, very limited.
01:43:33.240 This is the first time we've ever done a restoring event in the U.S. where we've had limited space.
01:43:38.420 You have to reserve your space, so do it now.
01:43:42.600 If you make a $5 donation, you can reserve your place in line, and we'll start calling people right away.
01:43:50.380 But talk to your family right away, and talk to your family at least over the holiday, because this decision, I think, will affect your children for the rest of their lives.
01:44:02.500 It will change, I think, our country and our family in really good ways.
01:44:09.100 Stu.
01:44:10.260 Yes, Glenn.
01:44:13.800 I haven't even had a chance to talk to you about Star Wars.
01:44:16.480 Yeah, saw it last night.
01:44:17.380 Can you at least tell me?
01:44:18.200 Yeah, can you at least tell me?
01:44:19.540 I will, without spoilers, say, it was, you know, it's getting really wrecked by the critics.
01:44:28.780 I don't think it was as bad as the critics are saying, but I will say it's pretty convoluted, and it does not seem like they really had a plan.
01:44:39.780 And that's the thing that bothers me more.
01:44:41.440 This is J.J. Abrams.
01:44:42.540 40 freaking years in this stupid thing.
01:44:46.140 And it's like, it doesn't seem, because I remember at the beginning of this, like, the idea was there was supposed to be nine movies, and Luke has had them all planned out.
01:44:53.400 I am a skeptic, to say the least, at this point of that pitch.
01:44:59.620 And honestly, even five years ago, I don't, it doesn't seem like this is how they planned on it coming together.
01:45:05.300 It just, it didn't, it just, it seemed like they were trying to do too many things for too many people.
01:45:10.340 That being said, it's not, I didn't think it was horrible.
01:45:12.820 It was entertaining.
01:45:13.520 There's some cool scenes.
01:45:14.360 There's some cool stuff that happens.
01:45:16.000 And, you know, but I would say it's a bottom half.
01:45:18.640 Anything, like, really cool, like, like, I am your father.
01:45:21.200 Any cool thing like that?
01:45:23.060 I mean, you know, there's definitely some big developments.
01:45:27.060 Yeah.
01:45:27.360 Okay, good.
01:45:28.220 But it is just overall, it was a little, I think of the 11 movies that have now, 11 movies over 40 some odd years, I have to think it's a bottom half.
01:45:39.280 Not, not bottom, bottom, but bottom half.
01:45:42.520 Not the first three.
01:45:44.640 No, no.
01:45:46.060 I mean, you know, the one, two, and three, episode one, two, and three, it's not there.
01:45:49.740 Yeah, no, it's better than most of those, you know, but it's not great, unfortunately.
01:45:55.720 All right.
01:45:56.580 I wanted satisfaction.
01:45:57.740 I did not necessarily receive.
01:45:59.460 All right, you're going to have massive satisfaction.
01:46:01.920 Candace Owens is joining us in just a minute.
01:46:05.080 Stand by.

01:49:09.420 We're in the last hour of the last show of the decade.
01:49:13.060 Stu Bergeer is with me.
01:49:14.260 And, Stu, do you realize that when we come back, we will begin our third decade in talk radio together?
01:49:24.080 Wow.
01:49:25.080 Jeez, that's incredible.
01:49:26.800 It's a little disturbing.
01:49:27.680 I'm not sure if what I've done with my life has really been worth it.
01:49:30.940 But other than that, it's been great.
01:49:34.000 I've done my, I'm entering my fifth decade in radio.
01:49:38.220 Amazing.
01:49:38.620 And my third decade in talk radio, which is crazy.
01:49:43.920 Crazy.
01:49:44.420 Yeah.
01:49:44.720 It's gone so fast.
01:49:45.760 It really has.
01:49:46.800 And, gosh, I mean, the world has changed so much in that time.
01:49:50.200 You think?
01:49:51.220 Yeah.
01:49:51.780 I, for some reason, go back a lot of times to that idea of, remember John Kerry in the 2004 election,
01:49:58.360 where he said, I voted for it before I voted against it.
01:50:00.980 And it kind of, like, sank his campaign.
01:50:03.200 Like, that would be a meaningless two-hour story in today's news cycle.
01:50:08.060 Nothing.
01:50:09.100 Not even a two-hour story.
01:50:10.320 Listen to, Elizabeth Warren changes her position on, like, massive programs every day, it seems like.
01:50:16.280 She was trying to fight for the middle yesterday in the debate.
01:50:21.380 Unbelievable.
01:50:21.540 She was fighting to be the moderate on the, are you, what?
01:50:26.860 Can you imagine, I mean, imagine going back to the early days when we were doing talk radio
01:50:31.360 and talking about an avowed socialist being in second place in the Democratic primary
01:50:38.740 when everybody else in the field is pretty much a socialist, if not actually by name.
01:50:43.820 You have avowed socialists leading the party, basically, in the AOCs and Ilhan Omar's of the world.
01:50:52.080 I mean, this has come a long way pretty quickly.
01:50:54.980 You know, when you said that, I thought to myself, could I have said that and believed that in the year 2000?
01:51:03.500 And I could have, but I would have had to describe in my mind, I would have had to see an apocalyptic kind of change in America.
01:51:15.360 And then I realized, oh, well, that's what happened.
01:51:19.340 That's what's happened in the last 20 years.
01:51:21.340 It's apocalyptic with what's happened, what's changed in our universities, what's changed in our society, what's changed in media,
01:51:29.620 what's changed in the way people even treat each other.
01:51:33.340 Our history has been stolen.
01:51:35.260 It's crazy.
01:51:36.400 Not to mention the 0.3 degrees Celsius rise we've seen in that time.
01:51:39.540 Well, I know.
01:51:40.220 Well, that goes without saying.
01:51:41.280 We're all drowning or burning to death in some horrible flood.
01:51:45.360 So I do want to tell you, an hour ago, we made an announcement that we're going to be doing,
01:51:55.020 excuse me, restoring the covenant this Independence Weekend, July 4th, the weekend of July 4th, which is a Saturday.
01:52:04.120 We're going to be in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.
01:52:07.400 These townships have just bent over backwards and really trying to work this out.
01:52:11.980 I'm telling you, I know when something is important, when every force that is known to man comes against it.
01:52:21.040 This one has been harder to put together than when we were in Jerusalem.
01:52:29.020 This one has, I mean, the problems with doing this has been crazy.
01:52:35.700 One of the things that has not been one of these problems, but the township has asked us to limit the number of people.
01:52:43.320 It's going to be about 30,000, and so they've asked us to limit the number because the roads will get clogged and it'll just be a nightmare.
01:52:53.140 So I've told you, the number is really limited, and we have all of the hotels in the area that have rooms.
01:53:03.960 We've opened up places for people to pitch tents.
01:53:06.960 We've opened up places for RVs, and we even have all access to all of the hotels anywhere in the area to make sure that everything is kind of coordinated for you.
01:53:18.200 So I announced this and told you to go to glennbeck.com slash restore for a $5 donation to the Nazarene Fund and Operation Underground Railroad.
01:53:31.520 You'll be able to reserve your place in line if you don't want to make a decision today and say, I'm ready to, you know, put my hotel here or whatever.
01:53:43.580 It'll reserve your place in line.
01:53:45.620 It's really important.
01:53:46.780 We have already, in 60 minutes, in fact, I heard this just about 10 minutes ago, so in about 50 minutes, we have already sold a third of the audience capacity.
01:54:04.120 We have crashed all kinds of servers, so you really need to act on this now.
01:54:10.260 If you want to come, it's going to be, I mean, we have a history museum.
01:54:18.080 We have really great names that are coming that I can't tell you about right now, but I can't wait to be able to announce some of the names that are coming.
01:54:30.380 We have some surprises that will end up being unannounced.
01:54:35.280 I am putting the fireworks together.
01:54:39.440 We are orchestrating brand new, writing and orchestrating brand new music.
01:54:44.620 It'll be the spoken word by me, the history of America, using fireworks and everything else.
01:54:50.540 It's going to be something you will never, ever forget, and there is a deeply spiritual reason we're doing it, Restoring the Covenant.
01:54:59.840 You can find out all about that and the reasons why we're doing it.
01:55:03.120 You can find that out at glennbeck.com slash restore.
01:55:09.060 Please, if you have any intent in going, please reserve your spot now because it's first come, first serve, and it is extremely limited.
01:55:20.340 Glenn Beck.com slash restore.
01:55:22.760 Talk to your family here over the weekend and over the Christmas holiday and then prepare to see us and us see you in Gettysburg, historic Gettysburg, as we restore the covenant on the July 4th weekend.
01:55:40.980 All right, going to take a pause.
01:55:43.160 Hopefully, we will have Candace Owens.
01:55:46.000 I don't know if she's going to make it for the show, but she was phenomenal last night.
01:55:52.380 Phenomenal last night.
01:55:53.880 I hope she arrives coming up in just a few minutes.
01:55:57.100 All right.
01:55:57.860 Our sponsor this half hour is Simply Safe.
01:56:00.280 They have a huge offer going on.
01:56:02.500 It is their biggest sale of the year, and it ends when the holidays are over.
01:56:07.020 However, Simply Safe has everything you need to protect your home and your family.
01:56:11.060 There's a smart lock, a video doorbell pro to defend your front door, a whole army of sensors and cameras guarding every window, door, and room in your home.
01:56:19.760 And if there is a break-in, they can give real-time video confirmation to police as it happens.
01:56:26.480 Now, this is something that only big, big, big companies have.
01:56:31.120 They have video confirmation.
01:56:32.580 Well, Simply Safe is the only home security system that offers video verification.
01:56:38.740 It helps the police know that it's not just an alarm trip and a mistake.
01:56:44.420 They know there is video verification that something is wrong in the house.
01:56:49.140 That moves you to the top of the 911 list instead of the bottom.
01:56:53.580 Usually, it's 45 minutes for police to respond, but it's seven minutes with video confirmation only from Simply Safe.
01:57:02.140 Now, the whole package is 25% off.
01:57:05.640 You also get a free HD security camera.
01:57:08.300 This is by far the biggest deal I think they've ever offered.
01:57:11.820 It's 25% off, a free HD security camera as well, but it is limited time only.
01:57:17.940 Go to simplysafebeck.com right now.
01:57:21.900 simplysafebeck.com.
01:57:24.060 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:57:26.100 Well, I am going to end my...
01:57:55.100 My last broadcast of the decade, I think with a little disappointment.
01:58:01.440 Candice, I don't know if she's going to make it.
01:58:04.140 If she's going to make it, she'll only be here for a couple of minutes.
01:58:07.500 And she is a guest I've wanted to have on this show for a very long time.
01:58:11.440 And something always comes up.
01:58:13.780 I thought this was going to be the time, but she is phenomenal.
01:58:17.720 Saw her speak last night.
01:58:18.960 She's going to be a power.
01:58:27.320 I bet she runs for president.
01:58:29.060 She's 30 now.
01:58:30.520 I bet she runs for president before she's 40.
01:58:35.340 Does she have to be 35, Stu?
01:58:37.800 35, yeah.
01:58:38.300 Constitutional.
01:58:38.840 I think she'll run for president by the time she's 40.
01:58:42.880 The difference in her from one year ago, she is, I mean, she is working hard on learning history
01:58:52.360 and really thinking things through.
01:58:55.780 She's impressive.
01:58:56.720 Really impressive.
01:58:57.480 Hey, I have to tell you real quick, in Brexit, they just had a vote in Parliament on whether
01:59:04.880 or not they're going to exit by January 31st.
01:59:08.700 Guess what Parliament did?
01:59:11.000 Guess.
01:59:11.940 Guess.
01:59:12.400 Come on.
01:59:12.800 Guess.
01:59:13.740 Amazingly, I did see this headline, and it shocked me, I'll say.
01:59:19.200 Overwhelmingly supported Brexit by January 31st.
01:59:24.100 They are out.
01:59:25.340 I mean, amazing.
01:59:26.060 They're out.
01:59:26.300 It's about time.
01:59:27.100 It's incredible.
01:59:29.760 And, you know, we're having this problem in the country, and I'm telling Democrats, you're
01:59:35.220 not listening to the people.
01:59:37.040 You're just not hearing the people.
01:59:39.360 The press is not hearing the people.
01:59:41.420 And they're going to be shocked, and they're going to say somehow or another they cooked
01:59:45.880 the books or whatever because they're not hearing people.
01:59:50.740 And Brexit is going to happen here.
01:59:54.100 It is.
01:59:54.580 Well, I think we should exit the United Kingdom and the EU at this point.
02:00:01.480 It's been too long.
02:00:02.260 I will say, too, the people have real things that they want done, and it seems like the
02:00:09.480 government sometimes ignores them, but sometimes they do come through.
02:00:13.440 Like, for example, we've talked for a really long time about getting Serbian cheese up to
02:00:18.240 international standards.
02:00:19.420 It's been a huge theme of the show since the beginning.
02:00:22.280 And, you know, why isn't Serbian...
02:00:24.860 Oh, oh, oh, Serbian cheese.
02:00:26.720 Yeah.
02:00:27.240 Yeah, I was...
02:00:28.000 I thought you said something else.
02:00:29.200 The cheese they make in Serbia is not up to international standards.
02:00:32.700 We've demanded it.
02:00:33.340 And that really bothers me.
02:00:34.500 Yeah.
02:00:34.840 And we finally have, in a report released by Rand Paul, who went through all the budgets
02:00:39.500 and found some of the more interesting items, we spent a $22 million project working to
02:00:45.300 bring Serbian cheese up to international standards.
02:00:47.760 So, finally, that's done.
02:00:49.800 And may I ask...
02:00:50.880 Now, I'm just asking this.
02:00:52.920 I'm pretending I wouldn't know the real reason.
02:00:56.680 Sure.
02:00:58.040 You know, so just for the dummies in the audience, too, why would we care about Serbian cheese
02:01:05.680 not being up to international standards?
02:01:07.780 Well, you've ever had...
02:01:08.220 And to what benefit would that be to us?
02:01:11.040 You know, a country that makes cheese.
02:01:14.280 That's a weird question right off the bat.
02:01:16.460 But I get you're asking it for the people.
02:01:17.720 I know, because everybody in their car are listening right now.
02:01:20.680 They're all shaking their head like, that's a dumb question.
02:01:23.020 But you have to think, there's, what, 194 countries in the world?
02:01:27.520 What if the other 193 stop making cheese?
02:01:31.000 Then where do we go?
02:01:31.740 Okay, good.
02:01:32.600 See?
02:01:32.720 We go to Serbia.
02:01:33.640 We have to go there.
02:01:34.760 I had a Serbian cheesesteak just yesterday.
02:01:37.300 It was delicious.
02:01:38.460 Really?
02:01:38.900 Yeah.
02:01:39.420 I had a Philadelphia.
02:01:41.020 It's a little closer.
02:01:42.680 And there's no government money involved in that.
02:01:45.340 But, well, and that's just one example.
02:01:47.820 Of course, there was this huge, if you remember, because you said we were going into our third
02:01:51.000 decade of doing this show.
02:01:52.840 Most of the first decade, and you haven't been around for a long time, but most of the
02:01:56.400 first decade, we started talking about how we really needed a statue of Bob Dylan in
02:02:01.420 our embassy in Mozambique.
02:02:04.040 And it was a huge push.
02:02:05.760 Because Mozambique, it's his home village.
02:02:09.200 Right, that's where he came from, obviously.
02:02:11.320 Bob Dylan wrote a lot of songs about Mozambique.
02:02:17.260 And I thought to myself, damn it, this is one statue, like the Statue of Liberty, this
02:02:22.400 is one statue that we should gift to Mozambique.
02:02:27.100 Like, right, and luckily, we have-
02:02:30.680 We've done it finally?
02:02:31.540 We've at least acquired the money to do so with $84,375 going to a Bob Dylan statue in
02:02:39.740 our embassy in Mozambique.
02:02:41.140 And I feel really good about that.
02:02:43.860 Because the people of Mozambique, they walk into the embassy like everybody in Mozambique
02:02:48.780 does.
02:02:49.380 They walk into the lobby and they're like, you know, this doesn't feel like a mayor.
02:02:53.240 Oh my gosh, it's Bob Dylan.
02:02:56.220 That's exactly what happens.
02:02:58.360 Now they know.
02:02:59.600 Right, right.
02:02:59.880 Yeah, it's great.
02:03:01.220 And now, we obviously spend a lot of time talking about Laotians.
02:03:05.440 You know, huge- this show has been dedicated to the future of-
02:03:10.640 Laotians, those things that they put over your neck when you arrive in Hawaii.
02:03:15.780 No, this is- well, it's not exactly that.
02:03:20.340 But we spent $20 million to teach Laotians to Laotians.
02:03:28.960 Again, I feel like that's kind of their job.
02:03:31.380 I mean, I don't know.
02:03:32.500 And doesn't it seem like a lot of money to spend to teach one kid, Laot?
02:03:38.460 No.
02:03:38.900 I mean, who is Laot?
02:03:40.220 Why is-
02:03:41.500 What?
02:03:42.000 That's for the next decade, I guess, to figure out.
02:03:44.140 Okay, all right, okay.
02:03:45.580 What else is on this list?
02:03:46.900 Well, we have- because, you know, one thing we've been very concerned about is-
02:03:51.960 Well, it's hard to prioritize when you're talking this list.
02:03:55.580 It is.
02:03:55.980 These are all number one on my list.
02:03:57.920 You know, and look, I don't- you know, look, everyone has to be able to figure out-
02:04:01.900 Love is love.
02:04:02.660 We've talked about that many, many times.
02:04:04.480 Love is love.
02:04:05.280 Lau is Lau.
02:04:06.260 We're not going to-
02:04:06.840 Laotian, not the things they put over-
02:04:09.520 Right, so we- I'm very concerned, and we've talked about this many times, of frog mating calls.
02:04:14.720 Like, what's going on with those frogs?
02:04:16.640 How are they mating?
02:04:18.040 How do they get each other's attention?
02:04:19.860 Do they just dress kind of skanky?
02:04:21.880 What's the situation?
02:04:23.620 We don't know.
02:04:24.520 It is important because they're all naked, and so after a while, when everybody's naked,
02:04:31.160 it just kind of wears off.
02:04:32.420 You don't look at each other.
02:04:34.580 You know, there's something about slowly revealing that.
02:04:38.100 You know what I mean?
02:04:39.320 Yeah.
02:04:39.800 Exactly.
02:04:40.400 So they're all naked in the first place, and we've learned from Alex Jones, most of the
02:04:46.120 frickin' frogs are gay because of fluoride.
02:04:48.440 Right.
02:04:48.940 So how do we get some straight-
02:04:50.480 We do need to-
02:04:51.380 We need some straight hookups, and they don't have a tinder for frogs.
02:04:55.700 It's not even a thing.
02:04:57.180 So this is-
02:04:58.140 Well, their fingers, their finger- the problem is, their fingers can't swipe because they
02:05:02.380 stick to the screen.
02:05:03.680 That's true.
02:05:04.440 That's true.
02:05:04.960 However, they do have those long tongues that if you put the phone across the room, they
02:05:08.760 can-
02:05:09.400 Like, they're catching the flies.
02:05:11.380 They could just kind of swipe with the tongue.
02:05:12.600 Yeah.
02:05:12.660 They could just drag the other phone closer to them.
02:05:14.660 That's really another-
02:05:15.680 That's a totally different grant than this one, though.
02:05:17.120 Totally different thing.
02:05:17.940 This was $466,991 we spent on a grant studying frog mating calls, which I'm concerned about.
02:05:26.820 I was- There's just not enough frog sex going on because, as you point out, all the frogs
02:05:32.160 are gay.
02:05:33.100 So I don't know if they're having gay frog sex.
02:05:35.100 That's not what this is about.
02:05:36.560 This is about, apparently, just the frog mating calls.
02:05:39.540 I can't take any more.
02:05:40.780 This is the last show of the decade.
02:05:43.540 And we ended in class.
02:05:44.760 Yeah, what a decade it has been, really.
02:05:49.040 New season, new TV show, and new specials in January.
02:05:54.600 We want to thank Sarah, who's been here all week.
02:05:57.380 Also, Rob and Steven and Robin and Kayla and Garrett.
02:06:01.540 And Ricky, who is our Director of Programming at Blaze Media, who has also been here.
02:06:10.260 Thank you so much, especially to you, for another great decade.
02:06:14.260 See you in January.
