Transcript

00:00:00.000 Let's talk a little bit about Rough Greens and how it affects our dogs.
00:00:03.520 Yeah, Miles is our dog.
00:00:05.100 He's 16 years old, loves the Rough Greens.
00:00:07.260 He dives right in.
00:00:08.120 Usually, he's a hesitant eater, but not with Rough Greens.
00:00:10.960 He goes right in.
00:00:11.700 I mean, look, for Miles at this point, energy is sleeping 22 hours instead of 23, but he
00:00:19.040 is noticeably different, and our dog, Piper, loves this stuff as well.
00:00:22.680 It is so hard, isn't it?
00:00:25.000 I mean, I was looking at Uno the other day, and I saw some pictures of him when he was
00:00:28.620 younger, and I'm like, oh my gosh, we're going to have to go through this again.
00:00:33.020 It's so hard to lose these dogs.
00:00:36.020 We love them so much.
00:00:38.260 You're the same way.
00:00:39.960 Give them the best stuff that will help them live a longer life.
00:00:44.200 It's with Rough Greens.

00:01:32.160 Well, hello, America.
00:01:34.340 From Dallas, this is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:37.860 We're glad you're here.
00:01:39.240 We want to talk to you about this scandal with the post office.
00:01:43.660 Oh my gosh, Stu, we're never going to have any mail.
00:01:47.280 There's no ballots that are going to be sent.
00:01:49.880 There's no ballots that will even come in.
00:01:52.340 Donald Trump.
00:01:53.220 That's all you have to say.
00:01:55.540 Yeah.
00:01:55.680 That's it.
00:01:56.320 That's all you have to say.
00:01:57.620 It seems as though that is all you have to say.
00:02:00.040 They're calling Congress back in.
00:02:02.000 They couldn't call Congress back in.
00:02:03.680 It was way too dangerous to call them in to vote on the trillions of dollars of spending.
00:02:09.140 But this time, yeah, they all got to come back because, well, Donald Trump.
00:02:15.920 We begin there in one minute.
00:02:18.060 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:23.200 All right.
00:02:23.700 Let me tell you about blinds.com.
00:02:25.440 I don't think you, I don't think any of us realize until we change them how important blinds or shades or shutters, drapes, whatever, good window coverings, how much they make a difference to the room until you change them.
00:02:40.200 Or, and somebody says something like, did werewolves jump through your blinds?
00:02:46.120 Nah, it's just the kids.
00:02:47.380 Anyway, this summer, strike while the iron is, and everything else, really super hot.
00:02:54.900 Did you see the 100, I think it was 130 degrees in Death Valley?
00:02:59.740 130, yeah.
00:03:01.080 And they said, it's not the record, but the record probably wasn't right.
00:03:05.060 They probably didn't have the temperature right.
00:03:07.180 It's like, well, wait a minute.
00:03:07.920 Aren't you guys telling us all about how global warming, I thought you knew all these temperatures for sure.
00:03:12.540 Now the one temperature that's a record you think they got wrong?
00:03:15.700 Oh, that's fascinating.

00:03:51.040 It's blinds.com.

00:04:09.860 It's blinds.com.
00:04:12.900 All right, so you're getting your kids ready for school, and you happen to be in Arizona, and you're so excited.
00:04:18.460 I mean, you're so sad to see your kids leave the house and go to school.
00:04:22.240 I mean, right, Stu?
00:04:23.000 Am I right?
00:04:23.660 Am I right?
00:04:24.120 Very depressing.
00:04:25.180 Oh, my gosh.
00:04:26.340 Oh, they got to go to school, and they won't be here at the house all day.
00:04:31.520 Oh.
00:04:32.680 Mm.
00:04:32.920 Then you find out last night that your teachers have phoned in a sick day.
00:04:42.900 There's a sick out in Arizona.
00:04:45.340 All the teachers are like, no, we just think that this is too dangerous to bring the kids in,
00:04:52.920 and there's some real safety concerns, and so we're not going to bring the kids.
00:04:58.760 This has nothing to do with the kids.
00:05:01.020 This has really nothing to do with the kids.
00:05:03.520 It really doesn't.
00:05:04.400 No.
00:05:04.560 It's like with the voting.
00:05:06.260 They're like, well, we have to have mail-in voting so everyone can go,
00:05:08.480 and then they gather together to protest it.
00:05:10.900 Right.
00:05:11.160 And with no social distancing.
00:05:13.640 Right.
00:05:13.800 None of this means it's all lies.
00:05:16.140 It's all lies.
00:05:16.520 None of this is actually real.
00:05:17.820 The post office stuff, the teacher stuff.
00:05:20.720 I mean, again, you should be scared of a global pandemic, especially if you're older,
00:05:26.100 and there's a reason for some of these teachers to be a little concerned.
00:05:29.940 And some of those teachers should be able to stay home.
00:05:32.640 Yeah, absolutely.
00:05:33.380 I mean, the teacher should be able to say, I'm in a high-risk category.
00:05:38.860 This is ridiculous.
00:05:40.260 It is really ridiculous.
00:05:42.080 The coordinated union nonsense is union nonsense.
00:05:44.940 Oh, just hate it.
00:05:46.800 So they're acutely aware of how polarizing this issue is and how challenging these ongoing
00:05:52.880 developments are for the entire community.
00:05:55.680 But unions are going to work closely to make sure that everything is good.
00:06:02.900 Really?
00:06:03.540 Man, it just, I can't take the politicization of everything.
00:06:11.520 Everything.
00:06:12.460 Yeah, it really, it's worse than ever, right?
00:06:14.940 Right at this second, too.
00:06:17.120 Isn't it?
00:06:17.960 Well, no, that was just a second ago.
00:06:19.820 I think it's worse right now.
00:06:21.360 Well, because it is, it's things that, I mean, the post office, I mean, the post office has
00:06:28.020 been, when it comes to politics, everyone kind of realizing, eh, it doesn't really work
00:06:32.440 all that well.
00:06:32.960 But, you know, because they lose lots of money and it's not a great business.
00:06:36.860 But, you know, generally speaking, you put your mail out there, it gets to the place that
00:06:41.460 it's supposed to go.
00:06:42.400 You'd get the occasional libertarian sort of pushback on whether we should fund it at
00:06:46.560 all.
00:06:47.600 And then that's basically been it for how long?
00:06:49.760 A hundred years.
00:06:51.500 Now it's all of a sudden so concerning that they have to come back and vote on it in a
00:06:57.120 more urgent sense than multiple trillions of dollars they let out go out the door a couple
00:07:02.400 months ago.
00:07:02.780 Let me tell you, here's, let me play for you the audio of Chuck Schumer.
00:07:06.960 Trump is undermining our post office.
00:07:10.260 He says he wants to slow down the mail to hurt the elections and make people doubt the
00:07:15.440 results of the election.
00:07:16.480 It's not what he said.
00:07:17.300 It's not even close to what he said.
00:07:18.740 Maybe he's worried he's going to lose.
00:07:19.400 It doesn't matter.
00:07:20.760 Our elections are sacred.
00:07:22.820 And to do this is disgraceful.
00:07:25.760 The postal system is well loved by America.
00:07:29.300 Ninety one percent of America approves of the postal system, which gives me pause, but
00:07:36.160 it's now being a hundred percent undermined.
00:07:38.860 Oh, see the percent political hack appointee.
00:07:44.180 Stop.
00:07:44.740 I can't do it.
00:07:45.460 I can't do it.
00:07:46.320 Here is Barack Obama on the post office.
00:07:49.920 If you think about it, you know, UPS and FedEx are doing just fine.
00:07:57.540 Right?
00:07:58.480 The, uh, no, they are.
00:08:00.120 I mean, it's, it's the post office that's always having problems.
00:08:03.200 Ah, so we have president Obama saying that, but you know, he fixed, oh no, he didn't fix
00:08:10.500 it.
00:08:10.980 No, he didn't fix it.
00:08:11.820 So Donald Trump brings somebody in to fix the post office.
00:08:16.260 Somebody who's well qualified to fix the post office, the, the moving of the sorting
00:08:22.080 machines and the shutting down that happens all the time in the post office.
00:08:26.980 Yeah.
00:08:27.300 And most of it is not going to happen before the election.
00:08:30.660 They're announcing it now and saying, we're doing these things, blah, blah, blah.
00:08:34.360 Now, after the election, and even if it is happening before the election, it's happening
00:08:40.620 in a way where it always goes on.
00:08:43.920 This always goes on.
00:08:45.940 They say that ballots are something like 2% of the mail in that time period, which I think
00:08:50.880 the mail, the U S postal service can handle that.
00:08:54.120 And there's all these rumors about, well, they've locked, they've locked, uh, postal, uh, the
00:09:00.180 boxes in the mailboxes for, for, uh, the postal service.
00:09:03.240 It's like, well, that happened because people were stealing mail had happened months ago.
00:09:06.700 Uh, you go to, uh, the other big complaint they have is this ridiculous thing about, um,
00:09:12.540 they're removing mailboxes from around these cities.
00:09:15.400 It's like, well, when you read what they're doing, they're moving, removing them from where
00:09:19.800 there are multiple next to each other.
00:09:21.660 So like there's five next to each other and they're taking one or two out.
00:09:24.880 So there's only three or four left.
00:09:26.580 I don't think that's going to overturn the election.
00:09:29.060 I could be wrong.
00:09:29.840 I think it is.
00:09:30.360 Okay.
00:09:30.600 I think it is.
00:09:31.200 Yeah.
00:09:31.460 Nancy Pelosi would not just, I mean, she was so concerned.
00:09:35.040 She could not call, uh, Congress back into session because of COVID.
00:09:40.000 Well, as I understand, COVID is worse than it's ever been.
00:09:44.400 No, it's not.
00:09:45.280 No, it's worse than it's ever been.
00:09:47.660 It's not.
00:09:48.280 It's no, we're the worst in the world, Stu.
00:09:52.180 No, no, no.
00:09:52.840 No, there's no one that will even take our passports now and let people in because we
00:09:57.860 are the worst.
00:09:59.060 Yeah, that's not true.
00:09:59.840 It's the most dangerous.
00:10:02.120 That's not true.
00:10:03.440 Ever.
00:10:04.160 No.
00:10:05.020 Okay.
00:10:05.420 Okay.
00:10:05.620 So she knows this and that's why she didn't bring the post, you know, the, the, uh, Congress
00:10:10.960 back.
00:10:11.460 But now at this very dangerous time when all of them could die from COVID, this is the
00:10:20.260 time they need it back.
00:10:21.160 And come on, we just outlined why the post service, postal service has a 91% approval
00:10:27.520 rating because people didn't think of it as political.
00:10:30.760 That's why it had a political approval rating of 91%.
00:10:33.040 If people just thought of it as like a, a, a thing down the street, they never thought
00:10:36.720 of it as part of the federal government.
00:10:37.920 So when you test it against other federal government agencies, they think they all suck
00:10:42.180 and they don't think about the postal service that way.
00:10:44.080 Keep doing this.
00:10:44.980 And they will, you'll have, instead of a 91% approval rating, you'll have a 50% approval
00:10:48.980 rating pretty quickly if you keep doing this.
00:10:51.240 But again, if they can get one extra percent, one extra little grab at power, they will destroy
00:10:58.680 anything they have to in their way.
00:11:00.220 So I don't want to compare the postal service to other agencies in the federal government.
00:11:06.440 Why don't they do a poll on the postal service versus UPS, Federal Express, you know, all the
00:11:14.220 other alternatives?
00:11:16.440 Because I'm doubting that the, uh, UPS or, uh, USPS comes out number one.
00:11:23.240 Well, plus it's subsidized so heavily.
00:11:25.400 So yes, you can send packages cheaper at times with the postal service.
00:11:30.220 Yeah, you can.
00:11:31.420 Uh, that's because you're already paying for it in other ways.
00:11:34.540 I know it's crazy.
00:11:35.640 Nobody thinks of it that way.
00:11:36.800 No one adds that into their package costs.
00:11:39.080 Right.
00:11:39.380 But when it's losing billions and billions of dollars, it's not just going into thin air.
00:11:43.200 You're paying for it.
00:11:44.720 So we got that going for us.
00:11:46.440 And, uh, on Wednesday, we're going to be doing, uh, a special on, uh, voter fraud and
00:11:54.500 stealing of the election.
00:11:55.760 And this, this postmaster general garbage, you know, they're threatening him with jail
00:12:01.480 if he doesn't show up to testify.
00:12:03.680 Can you imagine?
00:12:05.180 I mean, there, the president calls you and says, Stu, we've got to have you as the executive
00:12:15.660 producer in charge of America.
00:12:17.760 You're going to make sure that everything is just looking good and running right.
00:12:22.980 Is there an amount of money or an amount of national pride that would make you say, I
00:12:32.980 got to do that?
00:12:33.880 Oh, it sounds like a fun job right now.
00:12:35.480 I mean, you wouldn't take anything, any job, your, your, your life is destroyed.
00:12:42.000 And what's crazy is these public servants that are called up.
00:12:45.620 Most of them are like 60, 65.
00:12:49.020 They're being called up there at the end of the, they could be on a golf course and they're
00:12:52.940 like, you know what?
00:12:53.700 No, I think the postal service, I could actually, I could actually do a number on, I could actually
00:12:58.780 help.
00:12:59.580 So they go in for what?
00:13:02.500 To get destroyed publicly for no reason.
00:13:05.000 For no reason.
00:13:06.020 Again, like the.
00:13:06.840 By these career politicians who are almost all of them corrupt.
00:13:11.180 And you know, the guy who's ahead of the post office, they're like, oh, he's a political
00:13:14.400 appointee.
00:13:14.820 First of all, that's been common throughout the years.
00:13:17.640 That happens a lot.
00:13:18.600 You're not picking your opponents to go run it.
00:13:20.800 You're picking people who like you, which is typical in the government.
00:13:24.000 But he said they're going to have no problem with this.
00:13:27.220 Right.
00:13:27.560 You know, he's not saying that they're going to lose.
00:13:29.180 That's exactly what he said.
00:13:30.420 That's exactly what he would say.
00:13:31.940 There you go.
00:13:32.520 It's exactly what he would say.
00:13:34.660 I mean, and then let me tell you this.
00:13:37.860 You tell me that Donald Trump doesn't want to fix the election.
00:13:43.720 Have you heard now that national elections are being delayed by four weeks because of coronavirus?
00:13:50.660 Unbelievable.
00:13:51.320 I mean, in New Zealand.
00:13:52.600 But that's Donald Trump.
00:13:54.840 He's even trying to fix the elections in New Zealand because they wouldn't have done that.
00:14:01.480 Sure.
00:14:01.960 It's the most dangerous pandemic and we're all going to die and our hair is on fire right
00:14:05.800 now.
00:14:06.260 And oh, my gosh, I should be quarantined for the rest of my life.
00:14:10.380 It's in New Zealand that they're doing this.
00:14:12.860 Can you imagine if Donald Trump and his administration would say CDC has told us that we should delay?
00:14:21.120 Well, he I mean, he did, of course, suggest this on Twitter and they were very upset about
00:14:27.940 it.
00:14:28.380 Now, they're praising New Zealand because New Zealand is acting as an authoritarian government
00:14:33.640 over its people and saying, yes, we have, you know, it started with, I think, four cases,
00:14:37.560 but I think it got to 13 before they actually shut things down.
00:14:40.000 Uh, and they're delaying elections because of 13 cases.
00:14:43.820 Now, Donald Trump, they keep acting when he says stuff like that.
00:14:48.820 They are very upset about it as a as am I.
00:14:51.140 I don't want our elections delayed, but I don't either.
00:14:54.240 But like, I don't understand how you can praise New Zealand for their sensible, well measured
00:14:59.580 response to this.
00:15:01.340 It's because you like her because she's doing the things that you want and you don't like
00:15:05.060 Trump.
00:15:05.360 And none of this stuff, like none of this stuff is honest.
00:15:08.580 That's what the most frustrating part about it is.
00:15:10.800 I know.
00:15:10.960 None of this is honest.
00:15:11.800 What Schumer just said.
00:15:13.880 Oh, Donald Trump said he wants to slow down.
00:15:16.180 No, he didn't.
00:15:17.500 You wouldn't pass the spending bill.
00:15:22.000 You wouldn't pass the stimulus.
00:15:24.700 In there was money for the post office.
00:15:27.380 So when you don't you, the Democrats, don't get together to pass it, you then come out
00:15:33.760 and say he's not spending the money that it needs to be taken for the post.
00:15:37.840 No, it's your fault.
00:15:38.900 It's your fault.
00:15:39.580 And what did he say?
00:15:40.940 He said, fine.
00:15:42.240 Rubbing their nose into it.
00:15:44.420 Fine.
00:15:45.020 Well, I guess if you don't have that money for the post office, because you wouldn't vote
00:15:49.160 for it, you wouldn't pass the stimulus.
00:15:51.900 Well, that's good for me.
00:15:53.560 And do you remember, too, when Republicans would have there'd be a big spending bill
00:15:57.520 that would help working families?
00:15:59.820 Oh, yeah.
00:15:59.980 And the Republicans would be like, well, we really don't want to.
00:16:03.360 There's a trillion dollars in abortions.
00:16:06.040 And some of them seem to be forced abortions.
00:16:08.940 What is an abortion party?
00:16:10.360 I don't even know what that is.
00:16:11.480 Why are you going to get a celebration?
00:16:14.600 It's all in there.
00:16:15.840 And the Republicans would say, well, we're not going to pass it with that in there.
00:16:18.600 And they'd be like, you are holding up, helping working families for your special interest
00:16:25.240 groups and right-wing religious nonsense.
00:16:27.900 Did you see this puppy dog?
00:16:29.260 This puppy dog will be dead by the end of the week because of you.
00:16:33.140 Right.
00:16:33.520 And now we have a situation where millions of people, for nobody's fault, are coming off
00:16:41.480 of a pandemic-related unemployment and are going to lose the money that was going to
00:16:47.660 them.
00:16:48.700 Thousands and thousands of businesses that are barely holding things together are going
00:16:54.220 to go without this money after the government told them they had to close down.
00:16:58.280 This giant spending bill is, everyone's talking about it's going to eventually be a reality,
00:17:03.420 but it's all going to happen after these people go out of business.
00:17:06.160 I know.
00:17:06.540 And so they're not coming back to help them.
00:17:08.120 They're coming back to help the freaking post office, which will never go out of business
00:17:12.160 until the United States goes out of business.
00:17:14.240 All right.
00:17:14.680 Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
00:17:16.220 It's Rough Greens.
00:17:17.720 Now, if I handed you a plate of food and before you took the first bite, I said, oh, by the
00:17:22.100 way, I made sure to completely sterilize that.
00:17:24.560 So it's all dead.
00:17:25.760 There's no nutritional value in it really at all.
00:17:28.540 There's nothing.
00:17:29.480 Are you going to eat it?
00:17:32.000 Well, I mean, I eat Cheetos, so of course I'm going to eat it.
00:17:35.400 But most people probably would say, no, why are we doing this to our animals?
00:17:41.800 Why are we doing this to our dogs?
00:17:44.040 Kibble dog food is dead food.
00:17:45.900 It's missing key nutrients your dogs need.
00:17:49.300 So Rough Greens, it's a supplement.
00:17:51.520 It's not a dog food.
00:17:52.440 You put this on your dog's food and it contains all of the nutrients your dogs need, which get
00:17:57.640 cooked out of the kibble food when it's being made.
00:17:59.980 Probiotics, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, omega oils.
00:18:03.640 These are just some of the things that your dog needs to live a healthier lifestyle, and
00:18:07.920 they're all things that are in Rough Greens.
00:18:10.300 Give your dog the Rough Greens 14-Day Jump Start Bag today.
00:18:13.940 $14.95, you'll see the difference in your dog in 14 days or less.

00:18:30.260 Station ID.
00:18:30.760 And you know what really kills me is nobody is talking about the left and Google and YouTube
00:18:50.940 and Twitter.
00:18:52.120 They don't, they just don't see any problem.
00:18:55.160 That's a conspiracy theory.
00:18:56.460 That's a conspiracy theory that they're going to somehow affect the election.
00:19:02.500 We know that they can swing the election by four to six points.
00:19:09.820 Robert, what's his name?
00:19:11.600 Dr.
00:19:13.080 What's his name?
00:19:14.140 Epstein.
00:19:14.760 He says that they can swing it up to 10 points.
00:19:18.980 Nobody seems to care about that.
00:19:20.980 And why?
00:19:22.460 Because they don't care about actual fair elections.
00:19:26.300 They don't care about it.
00:19:27.220 They're a party designed to make sure that we don't have them.
00:19:30.940 They will do anything they can.
00:19:33.080 And of course, let's also be clear.
00:19:35.140 Whenever they lose, they all say they didn't, it wasn't a valid election.
00:19:40.840 Oh, they're going to say that.
00:19:41.680 They're going to say it again.
00:19:42.380 I mean, they say it every time they lose.
00:19:43.820 Stacey Abrams, obviously we just saw in Georgia, has been running around the country telling everybody
00:19:46.980 that she's basically the governor of Georgia, which she is not.
00:19:49.520 But I mean, go back, Al Gore, obviously, we all know that story.
00:19:53.440 Hillary Clinton has been running around the country lately saying how all these things
00:19:56.820 were taken from her and it was all because of Russia and all of these other BS reasons.
00:20:01.060 Even John Kerry, people forget about this, but John Kerry said that he lost Ohio because,
00:20:07.460 well, there was people, it was very shady activity.
00:20:10.260 People were putting pamphlets all around Ohio saying that Democrats voted on Wednesday,
00:20:15.880 which is obviously wrong to do.
00:20:18.100 So we didn't print pamphlets.
00:20:20.520 No, we didn't.
00:20:21.020 We just had the big waffle head float say that.
00:20:23.320 Right.
00:20:23.560 It was a waffle head float that went down the middle of the road with giant speakers saying
00:20:26.720 Democrats vote on Wednesday.
00:20:28.020 Right.
00:20:28.460 And, you know, look, trust me, the waffle head.
00:20:32.120 Right.
00:20:32.840 Democrats vote on Wednesday.
00:20:35.300 It was it was a it was a waffle.
00:20:37.820 Well, now, if you're you're dumb enough to believe the waffle float, well, and it was
00:20:43.760 performative art, but you can't censor artists as Democrats much.
00:20:47.340 Now, a man, brother, a man, this this whole program is art.
00:20:53.100 You know what I mean?
00:20:54.140 Yeah.
00:20:54.380 Much more than political speech.
00:20:55.840 It's art as the 100th most important person in the world of art in the world of art.
00:21:01.700 According to some real legitimate art magazine.
00:21:04.280 Actually legitimate.
00:21:05.480 They did that and thought that they were like mocking me.
00:21:08.640 We use it for our no one even remembers what the magazine is.
00:21:11.520 We use it for our advantage all the time.
00:21:13.400 One hundred.
00:21:14.720 I am the 100th most important person in the world of art.
00:21:19.760 Just want to let you know, by the way, did you see how Trump's brother's death was handled?
00:21:26.660 This is obscene, just obscene.
00:21:30.840 When people die, John Lewis, we've had massive, massive disagreements with him on politics.
00:21:39.620 Massive.
00:21:40.700 Did you hear us say anything bad or iffy or anything other than that is a great loss?
00:21:46.520 Didn't agree with this politics, but that is a great loss.
00:21:50.940 Everybody, everybody.
00:21:53.040 We would never do that.
00:21:54.640 Look at the news organizations.
00:21:58.680 One of them, which I would like to have a monologue on, and I might, KSL, owned outright by my church.
00:22:10.220 And they were mocking it.
00:22:12.520 It's time for KSL to be sold.
00:22:14.660 If you can't stay civil and you are picking sides, then it should be sold.
00:22:23.860 What people did, the AP, the Washington Post.
00:22:29.040 Mr. President, I am sorry for the loss of your brother.
00:22:33.700 I know how painful it must have been.
00:22:36.180 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:22:37.980 Jeez.
00:22:38.460 All right.
00:22:39.780 Relief factor.
00:22:40.520 Gary lives in California, which means the biggest thing he might be facing.
00:22:45.740 I don't know if you heard the good news on Friday, but what was it?
00:22:50.520 The California may slide into the ocean, right?
00:22:53.780 At some point.
00:22:54.360 Wasn't that it?
00:22:55.020 Oh, my gosh.
00:22:55.940 That is horrible.
00:22:57.400 Anyway, the second biggest thing that Gary should be worried about is just the progressives just destroying.
00:23:03.240 Third thing might be the pain he was suffering every day, almost all day long.
00:23:08.680 That's until he heard about relief factor.
00:23:10.760 Now, Gary's a little bit older.
00:23:11.960 It takes a certain radio show host.
00:23:14.280 I know.
00:23:14.600 Well, you know, with a little bit of skepticism.
00:23:17.940 Good.
00:23:18.820 But after a few weeks of using relief factor, he found that his pain was almost completely gone.
00:23:24.100 He got his life back.
00:23:25.440 And you can, too.
00:23:27.240 Relief factor.
00:23:27.900 It's not a drug developed by doctors.
00:23:29.420 And 70 percent of the people are just like Gary.
00:23:31.960 They go on to order more.
00:23:32.960 They're just like me.
00:23:33.960 I take it three times a day.

00:23:58.600 Really, I love it.
00:23:59.980 Holy cow.
00:24:08.200 Do we have a great show for you today?
00:24:10.020 Everything you need to know about the electrifying convention that's going to be happening on Zoom.
00:24:18.440 And it's going to be it's going to be spine chilling.
00:24:23.960 Really is.
00:24:25.140 And we're going to we have somebody stood.
00:24:27.880 We have somebody on the on the well, the virtual convention floor.
00:24:31.900 That's the rumor.
00:24:32.620 I know they're trying to put that together.
00:24:33.780 OK, so we'll we'll try to have that check in with whoever that might be on on this program in just about 35 minutes.
00:24:41.440 Right now we have Pat Gray, who is the host of Pat Gray Unleashed and here in a surgical mask, which.
00:24:48.380 My longstanding policy to, you know, just keep the virus at bay.
00:24:53.680 It's your longstanding, longstanding policy.
00:24:55.580 Really?
00:24:55.980 I've been watching you for the last few weeks.
00:24:59.220 And so you've noticed that I've masked up quite a bit.
00:25:01.460 Never.
00:25:02.040 Never.
00:25:02.540 Have I seen you in a mask?
00:25:03.500 No.
00:25:04.020 Yeah.
00:25:04.400 That's weird.
00:25:05.100 It's just that is weird.
00:25:06.240 It's just weird.
00:25:08.320 Because you've been in.
00:25:09.060 I haven't noticed necessarily you wearing it for the past few months when you've been coming in here every day.
00:25:13.800 Really?
00:25:14.380 Today you are.
00:25:15.500 And I'm curious, is it because you have someone who definitely has COVID sitting next to you?
00:25:19.840 OK, that's it.
00:25:20.900 Yeah, that's it.
00:25:21.920 OK, that's it.
00:25:23.040 That's the difference.
00:25:24.480 I don't have COVID.
00:25:26.120 I don't have COVID.
00:25:26.900 It's because of the certainty of the virus being in the room.
00:25:30.100 That's the difference.
00:25:31.020 That's not what I do.
00:25:31.780 But I don't have COVID.
00:25:33.600 There's a distinction here.
00:25:35.060 Everybody in his family had COVID and he sleeps with one of them that has COVID.
00:25:39.340 And so he has COVID.
00:25:41.320 You know what he does.
00:25:43.680 And he looks it.
00:25:44.540 He looks the part.
00:25:45.420 Thank you.
00:25:46.100 Thank you.
00:25:46.700 Yeah.
00:25:46.920 Well, if inflation of your skin is part of COVID, I've got it bad.
00:25:55.720 I've got it really bad.
00:25:57.720 I was thinking about it last night.
00:25:58.860 I have a sept on a scale, but I bet it's the COVID 40.
00:26:02.380 Yeah.
00:26:02.740 God, I don't want to go near that scale.
00:26:04.840 Yeah.
00:26:05.380 It's.
00:26:05.900 Yeah.
00:26:06.840 It's not good.
00:26:07.580 It's not good.
00:26:07.960 It's not good.
00:26:08.520 It's not good.
00:26:09.520 I was thinking about it.
00:26:10.160 Not for any of us.
00:26:11.060 I was thinking about that last night.
00:26:12.660 I was having some of your wife's cookies.
00:26:14.880 I was thinking, wow, I've got to stop.
00:26:18.080 But I didn't, strangely.
00:26:20.160 Didn't at all.
00:26:20.980 That's weird.
00:26:21.680 So, Pat, what are the things that are on your mind today that you think.
00:26:25.740 I'm a little bothered about you guys missing the big story.
00:26:27.920 I mean, you're talking around it, but you won't discuss the real issue about this postal
00:26:34.720 service thing.
00:26:35.460 Okay.
00:26:35.780 All right.
00:26:36.120 Taylor Swift has sounded off in a powerful, powerful way.
00:26:40.700 Really?
00:26:41.100 And has called the president a blatant cheat, and he is dismantling the U.S. Postal Service.
00:26:48.000 Oh, my God.
00:26:48.460 She's smart.
00:26:49.220 She is smart.
00:26:50.100 She's brilliant.
00:26:50.900 Listen to this.
00:26:51.320 Trump's calculated dismantling of USPS proves one thing clearly.
00:26:56.040 He's well aware.
00:26:57.260 We don't want him as our president.
00:26:58.860 He's chosen to blatantly cheat and put millions of Americans' lives at risk in order to hold
00:27:03.300 on to power.
00:27:04.720 And he is dismantling the U.S. Postal Service.
00:27:07.720 Well, if by dismantling you mean he has loaned them an additional $10 billion, then yes, you're
00:27:16.060 exactly right.
00:27:16.700 That's the way you take somebody apart.
00:27:18.880 You know what I mean?
00:27:19.500 You get $10 billion, and that's it.
00:27:21.380 Not a penny more.
00:27:22.140 They're a struggling business.
00:27:23.840 Well, there's going to be more, but just not on that check.
00:27:27.340 Right.
00:27:27.500 You know, somebody's struggling in business.
00:27:29.300 You're like, help me, help me, help me.
00:27:30.640 And you're like, I am going to put them out of business.
00:27:33.020 More predatory lending.
00:27:34.240 I'm going to give them $10 billion.
00:27:37.380 That's it, right?
00:27:38.360 Yeah.
00:27:39.040 And it's not actually a loan, Stu.
00:27:41.220 It's not a loan.
00:27:42.060 It's just write the check.
00:27:44.300 Yeah.
00:27:44.520 Here's the money.
00:27:45.660 Keep it forever.
00:27:46.380 Keep it.
00:27:46.860 Keep it forever.
00:27:47.860 That's a pretty good loan.
00:27:49.040 Mm-hmm.
00:27:49.460 Mm-hmm.
00:27:50.260 And, you know, you talked about the fact that they're removing some of the blue mailboxes where
00:27:55.560 you put your mail.
00:27:56.640 Oh, my gosh.
00:27:58.040 Because that's what they do when nobody uses those boxes in those areas.
00:28:03.440 They take them from that area and put them maybe at a shopping center where people are
00:28:07.680 and can put their mail in.
00:28:09.300 Oh, put them at a shopping center where poor people won't be and won't be able to mail
00:28:13.260 their ballots.
00:28:14.060 Right.
00:28:14.400 Because what are they going to do?
00:28:15.340 Where are they going to put it?
00:28:16.120 They're going to put them in a shopping center.
00:28:17.980 There's no other place.
00:28:18.660 There's no one that is going to use that mailbox.
00:28:21.020 Some people might say, you have a mailbox at your house.
00:28:26.040 Here's what you do.
00:28:26.980 You take your mail, your mail-in ballot.
00:28:29.340 Uh-huh.
00:28:29.680 You walk it out to your post, your mailbox.
00:28:32.620 Mm-hmm.
00:28:33.040 You open the door.
00:28:33.920 Mm-hmm.
00:28:34.220 Put the mail in.
00:28:34.960 Close the door.
00:28:35.960 Raise the flag.
00:28:37.340 Some would say that's an opportunity then for the mailman, the letter carrier.
00:28:41.860 But what if you don't have one of those?
00:28:45.140 Mm-hmm.
00:28:45.800 You're living like you.
00:28:48.300 You're welcome.
00:28:49.220 You're living in an apartment complex.
00:28:51.520 Right.
00:28:51.820 And you don't have a mailbox.
00:28:53.360 Well, there's a place where everybody has their mailbox.
00:28:56.540 Mm-hmm.
00:28:56.800 You go down there in that case and open yours and put it in there.
00:29:00.440 And when they see that there's mail in there, they take it out and they deliver it to the
00:29:03.820 post office or if under really radical circumstances, you could drive to the post office yourself
00:29:11.960 and put it right on the slide.
00:29:13.700 Assuming you had a car.
00:29:14.860 Well, yes.
00:29:15.920 You know what I mean?
00:29:16.560 You were old enough to drive.
00:29:17.940 Uber.
00:29:18.680 Now, could you put it in one of the other post office boxes that were next to the one
00:29:24.500 that they removed?
00:29:25.360 Yes, you could.
00:29:26.220 Okay.
00:29:26.420 What if you put, what about those people who are currently living in a coffin and they
00:29:33.600 don't have?
00:29:34.600 Oh, the dead?
00:29:35.720 Yes.
00:29:36.300 Yeah.
00:29:36.520 They don't.
00:29:37.020 That's the discriminatory way of describing them.
00:29:41.180 I'm telling you, they are living in a very small living space right now.
00:29:46.600 Yeah.
00:29:47.140 And there's no post.
00:29:49.040 There's no post box there in their little living quarters or not living quarters, but
00:29:55.300 they're quarters.
00:29:56.200 Yes.
00:29:56.860 You know?
00:29:57.200 Well, there was just a case of that.
00:29:59.440 What state was it where they removed 846 of those mailed ballots to those people?
00:30:06.340 To the actual dead.
00:30:08.160 And Donald Trump said, no, they don't get to vote.
00:30:11.220 Why?
00:30:11.700 Just because they don't breathe anymore?
00:30:13.540 Where are their rights?
00:30:13.980 Just because their heart's not beating?
00:30:16.040 Does the Constitution say you lose your rights when you stop breathing?
00:30:19.300 Right.
00:30:19.440 And your heart stops beating?
00:30:20.420 I don't see it.
00:30:21.040 I've read it a million times.
00:30:22.260 I've never seen that.
00:30:23.280 Not in there.
00:30:23.680 Because it's not in there.
00:30:24.420 It's not in there.
00:30:25.520 Donald Trump, again, just taking away rights from people who are non-breathing people.
00:30:33.200 Dead are people, too, you know.
00:30:35.540 Yeah.
00:30:36.120 Or they are.
00:30:36.840 Or at least were.
00:30:37.860 Yeah.
00:30:38.020 They were people.
00:30:39.100 Oh, they stopped being people just because they're dead.
00:30:41.100 Yes.
00:30:41.360 Now they're spirits for a while.
00:30:44.220 And then those spirits can vote, right?
00:30:46.320 I mean, I don't see anything in the Constitution that says they can't.
00:30:49.180 There isn't one.
00:30:50.160 There isn't anything in there.
00:30:51.220 What if you're a dog?
00:30:52.160 What if you're a dog and you don't have a mailbox?
00:30:56.680 That's a really good question, Glenn.
00:30:57.940 Thank you very much.
00:30:58.860 What if you're a cat and all you have is a litter box?
00:31:01.640 As a post office, Donald Trump's stopping people from checking the litter boxes?
00:31:05.800 There was a cat.
00:31:06.580 For a cat post?
00:31:07.240 There was a cat a couple of months ago that we heard about.
00:31:09.540 I know.
00:31:10.160 Who received, 12 years after its death, a check.
00:31:14.520 Why is that important?
00:31:14.840 Why is that important?
00:31:15.420 A check for $1,200.
00:31:17.820 Wow.
00:31:18.220 Look at how he's biased.
00:31:20.240 They're living people.
00:31:21.300 Well, maybe if he had that money earlier, he wouldn't have been able to stay alive, right?
00:31:25.340 Yeah, right.
00:31:25.760 Hire a visiting vet or something.
00:31:27.980 So it came 12 years too late.
00:31:29.320 So what?
00:31:29.660 I mean, who thinks that this is a good idea to change anything about our voting system
00:31:39.600 this time around?
00:31:41.820 Who's like, you know what?
00:31:43.240 We should all do mail-in.
00:31:46.160 We should all do it.
00:31:47.400 Well, you know what we should do?
00:31:48.380 We should get Kreskin and everybody wants to vote for Trump.
00:31:51.680 You just think about it and Kreskin will write it down.
00:31:55.400 I mean, why would we change anything?
00:31:58.420 It's bad as it is, but it's still probably the best in the world.
00:32:05.540 Why would we change anything?
00:32:07.900 Especially when they're all saying that Trump is trying to throw this election through the
00:32:12.380 mail and by destroying the post office.
00:32:14.800 All right.
00:32:15.020 Well, it's not a pretty good reason to show up with an ID at a voting booth.
00:32:21.300 Let's do that.
00:32:22.640 Let's show up and let's just vote.
00:32:24.900 You can understand, obviously, the theory behind it, right?
00:32:27.420 Like to be prepared if you've got a pandemic going on, maybe you want to have the ability
00:32:32.080 for people.
00:32:32.300 It's going to be November.
00:32:33.520 Right, right.
00:32:33.960 I mean, first of all, it's going to be later.
00:32:35.760 But again, it's tough to predict.
00:32:37.180 Obviously, we've seen people miss these predictions like crazy.
00:32:39.660 Yeah.
00:32:39.780 But the bottom line is we have, I voted absentee almost every election.
00:32:44.800 Why are we doing election coverage all day and all night that night?
00:32:48.280 So I can't just go to the polls on election day.
00:32:51.220 So almost every single time I voted, I voted absentee.
00:32:55.000 It's super easy.
00:32:56.460 They will take literally any excuse.
00:32:58.820 And there's only seven states in the union where you even have to come up with an excuse
00:33:02.420 that could be different than COVID.
00:33:05.100 If you tell them you have to work that day, what they're going to do is send you the ballot
00:33:08.380 request.
00:33:09.260 It's the most minimal amount of effort.
00:33:11.020 It's easy.
00:33:11.680 And it's been working in this country for a very long time.
00:33:14.940 Why would we need to expand the system and like outwardly mail people ballot applications
00:33:20.140 in advance?
00:33:21.760 If they want them, they can ask for them.
00:33:24.120 And that's worked in this country for a very long time.
00:33:27.200 It's just, this is, again, just nonsense.
00:33:30.120 It's just nonsense to get bases fired up and people are going crazy over it.
00:33:34.760 The left thinks Donald Trump is overthrowing the election because of the mail.
00:33:38.380 No, they don't think that.
00:33:39.420 They don't think that.
00:33:40.020 Well, I think that, I think the regular people, a lot of them do.
00:33:42.980 Oh, I think that's a possibility.
00:33:44.160 The leadership doesn't at all.
00:33:45.420 No, the leadership doesn't.
00:33:46.540 And the left doesn't.
00:33:47.340 They know exactly what's going on.
00:33:48.660 And they're going to burn the cities down to the ground.
00:33:53.540 The, if Donald Trump wins, they're going to be, they're setting that whole thing up.
00:33:57.900 Oh yeah, they are.
00:33:58.640 Absolutely.
00:33:59.200 Like Taylor Swift really believes that's true.
00:34:01.460 Yeah.
00:34:01.640 And again, she's a moron, but I mean, she actually believes that's true.
00:34:04.940 She's sitting there terrified that the president of the United States is trying to mail
00:34:09.560 her election away.
00:34:11.020 You know, it's amazing to me is how we were called fear mongers.
00:34:14.520 We still are.
00:34:15.800 You're fear mongers.
00:34:16.840 If you're a conservative, you're a fear monger.
00:34:19.860 We're the most optimistic, happy people out there right now.
00:34:23.560 I mean, you listen to all they do is fear monger.
00:34:26.080 All they do is fear monger on the election and everybody and everybody is on the left
00:34:32.140 is believing it.
00:34:33.560 Yeah.
00:34:33.740 Everybody who votes for a Democrat, they all believe all of that stuff.
00:34:37.420 I mean, it's, it's remarkable.
00:34:40.300 They're incapable of making a rational decision until Donald Trump is not president.
00:34:44.460 When, when Donald Trump is no longer president, they may be able to come up with a rational
00:34:48.860 thought.
00:34:49.200 And I mean, in any part of their lives, it's all irrational right now.
00:34:52.860 Let me ask you this.
00:34:53.900 What do you think about, I was thinking about this last night as I was reading about New
00:34:58.180 York City and how much trouble New York City is in.
00:35:00.660 Yeah.
00:35:01.180 And we're going to get into this here.
00:35:02.620 Financially or?
00:35:03.320 Oh, no, no, no.
00:35:04.160 People are just leaving it.
00:35:06.160 The Time Life building has 5,000 employees.
00:35:11.360 And I think currently 800 are going to work there.
00:35:15.960 Wow.
00:35:16.200 That's going to be a problem though now.
00:35:17.920 Oh, it's going to be for everybody.
00:35:19.220 Nobody's coming back.
00:35:20.360 Yeah.
00:35:20.740 Nobody's coming back.
00:35:21.760 I'm hearing that from everybody.
00:35:22.880 Yeah.
00:35:23.380 So where did they go?
00:35:24.880 It's 8,000 normally and it's 500 working.
00:35:27.660 Oh, wow.
00:35:28.260 Yeah.
00:35:28.380 So it's worse.
00:35:28.980 Worse than you.
00:35:29.540 It's worse than I just said.
00:35:30.440 Worse than your reporters.
00:35:30.960 Wow.
00:35:31.920 That's, that's insane.
00:35:33.700 Yeah.
00:35:33.880 That's absolutely insane.
00:35:35.660 So where are they going?
00:35:37.520 A lot of those New Yorkers are moving to Florida, a swing state.
00:35:43.360 You are impacting the election in, in Texas because of all the Californians that are moving
00:35:52.380 here.
00:35:53.240 You're affecting it in Florida because of all the New Yorkers moving there.
00:35:58.400 And nobody's talking about that.
00:36:00.200 There is, there are states that have always voted one way or it's been close and they
00:36:07.920 are being turned upside down by this massive exodus of these cities.
00:36:15.220 Do we know that they're actually leaving the city or are they just staying home right now?
00:36:19.360 And do a lot of them are leaving the city.
00:36:21.340 It seems like both.
00:36:22.180 I mean, like they are leaving, they left because of COVID or some of them left because
00:36:26.560 of the violence of the riots when people were breaking into their buildings.
00:36:29.860 It's like, there's a video going around on, uh, on social right now, which shows going
00:36:34.660 down, I think it was at fifth Avenue, Glenn.
00:36:36.000 Yeah.
00:36:36.180 Fifth Avenue.
00:36:36.660 Every single business has its windows boarded.
00:36:39.660 Play it real quick.
00:36:40.320 We have it.
00:36:40.780 Just, just play it real quick.
00:36:41.740 If you happen to be watching the, uh, plays, the thing here though, to remember is you don't
00:36:51.120 need to board up windows to stop COVID.
00:36:53.520 Have you ever seen the, you board up windows to stop people from breaking them?
00:36:57.360 It's the riots that people, that is, that is getting a lot of people to have to leave
00:37:01.660 this city.
00:37:02.280 It's just the last straw.
00:37:03.620 Yeah.
00:37:04.060 And now with all the hassles of living in the city, there's just, you've lost all of
00:37:08.640 the positives of being there.
00:37:10.100 None of the places are open.
00:37:11.120 So why the hell would you be there?
00:37:12.440 It's expensive and it's awful.
00:37:14.360 You have to deal with Bill de Blasio.
00:37:16.200 Broadway is supposed to be closed until next spring at the earliest is when they will
00:37:21.020 open next spring.
00:37:22.340 So there's no tourism.
00:37:24.080 There are no stores.
00:37:26.000 Nobody's, all these companies, no restaurants.
00:37:28.640 All these companies are like, you know, I don't even need to know if we need to have
00:37:31.960 our business in New York anymore.
00:37:34.140 New York may never recover.
00:37:36.320 And I don't know how commercial real estate does.
00:37:38.860 It's already 30 to 40% down.
00:37:41.680 You can get an apartment 30 to 40% lower than you ever could.
00:37:45.960 That's in New York.
00:37:46.660 But I think all around the country, people have these big offices and they don't need them
00:37:50.700 anymore.
00:37:51.160 Yep.
00:37:51.580 You don't need them.
00:37:52.780 All right.
00:37:53.320 Thanks, Pat.
00:37:54.260 Pat Gray, Unleashed.
00:37:55.280 Hang out for the next hour when we're going to go to the convention floor.

00:39:06.100 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
00:39:17.180 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:39:19.480 It is Monday.
00:39:20.980 Well, we see how unstable things are in the Middle East now that Donald Trump got the UAE
00:39:28.340 to agree to normalize relations.
00:39:32.280 We do have Iran issuing a threat on Saturday to launch a missile attack on the UAE because
00:39:41.980 they had made a huge mistake and a betrayal.
00:39:45.620 The great betrayal of the Palestinian people will turn this small, rich country, which is
00:39:51.060 heavily dependent on security, into a legitimate and easy target.
00:39:54.640 He said we could hit the UAE in eight minutes.
00:39:58.480 So we got that going for us.
00:40:01.100 Morocco.
00:40:04.340 Yeah.
00:40:05.000 Morocco says that they're probably going to be the next state to normalize ties with Israel.
00:40:09.780 And there are five other Arab countries now, Bahrain, Oman, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar.
00:40:22.080 No word on Tunisia yet, but Saudi Arabia is the big one.
00:40:26.520 If that happens, all that happens is just the whole region.
00:40:29.240 Yeah.
00:40:30.180 I mean, any of them are big and big in a big step.
00:40:33.540 I mean, it's been 25 years or 26 years since anybody had done that.
00:40:37.400 But Donald Trump is just going to cause a giant war in the Middle East.
00:40:39.540 We all know that.
00:40:40.280 Yeah.
00:40:40.520 We're all on the same page there.
00:40:41.860 Well, I mean, look, you have all of them coming to play.
00:40:45.140 The one who's going to destabilize it is not Donald Trump.
00:40:48.000 The one who's going to destabilize it will be the head of the snake, Iran.
00:40:52.960 They're the ones telling everyone there will be a great war if this continues.
00:40:58.680 Who's the one who is the destabilizing factor?
00:41:01.920 The one Obama was giving money to or the one Trump said, now we're going to cut that off.
00:41:08.320 Hey, everybody knows PayPal.

00:42:15.940 Bilt Bar is a sponsor of ours.
00:42:17.880 They are really, really good.
00:42:21.160 I just had the chocolate and made with real chocolate.
00:42:26.220 Have you had one of these?
00:42:27.660 I have not.
00:42:28.560 No.
00:42:29.020 Try this.
00:42:29.580 Do you like coconut?
00:42:31.320 I do not.
00:42:31.940 Okay.
00:42:32.960 I like chocolate, though, but you already ate it.
00:42:34.520 This is chocolate and coconut.
00:42:35.920 It's like a Mounds bar, and it really is.
00:42:37.980 Okay.
00:42:38.460 This is their chocolate and raspberry, and it's real chocolate.
00:42:44.120 Yeah.
00:42:44.260 It has everything in it.
00:42:45.800 It's a protein bar, but they've added six new flavors, plus their original 12.

00:43:50.240 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:43:54.060 Hello, America, and welcome to Monday.
00:43:58.920 It's the Glenn Beck Program, and my, oh, my, oh, my, what a beautiful program we've got
00:44:03.240 for you today.
00:44:04.120 We're going right on to the convention floor for the Democrats and the Democratic Convention.
00:44:10.600 Everybody is so excited about this.
00:44:13.480 People are talking about it from sea to shining sea in the Purple Mountains.
00:44:18.900 They have majestically bowed down because this week, who knows who Joe Biden is going to
00:44:26.700 pick as the vice, he's already, everybody, he's already picked, he's already picked.
00:44:34.840 Well, but he could still, I mean, we're still, we're still in front.
00:44:38.920 We have some exciting things, some things like we don't know if he's going to be the candidate.
00:44:44.960 He's the candidate.
00:44:45.760 He's the nominee.
00:44:46.920 Yeah.
00:44:47.120 Well, it's going to be exciting, and we have all the coverage beginning in 60 seconds.
00:44:53.580 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:44:59.020 Well, you've worked hard for the things that you own, and while they don't define who you
00:45:03.180 are, they are an indicator of the way you've managed your time and lived your life.
00:45:07.340 So what happened when some jerk comes along and says, hey, I'm going to break into your
00:45:12.940 house.
00:45:13.560 You give me the stuff in your house because you don't deserve it.
00:45:17.940 Wait until you hear the audio of what happened this weekend.
00:45:20.680 Oh, yeah, that's happening.
00:45:23.560 You know, they're going to take your stuff because you're insured.
00:45:26.320 You're insured.
00:45:26.900 And it's theirs anyway.
00:45:28.220 You know what I mean?
00:45:29.020 We might have laughed at that idea.
00:45:31.060 Oh, I don't know.
00:45:31.900 A year ago.
00:45:33.000 But unfortunately, this is our reality that we're living in.
00:45:38.400 Fortunately, the world of home security has also evolved to the point where you can have
00:45:42.560 top-of-the-line security that doesn't cost a fortune.
00:45:45.420 It's called SimpliSafe.
00:45:46.480 If you don't have home security in your house, I don't know what you're thinking.
00:45:50.560 Honestly, SimpliSafe makes it easy and affordable to have the best home security on the market.
00:45:56.240 Their state-of-the-art equipment, round-the-clock monitoring, makes SimpliSafe the first name
00:46:01.020 in the business.
00:46:01.940 And when you pair how SimpliSafe is with the setup and the fact that you're only going to
00:46:06.720 pay 50 cents a day for the monitoring, it's a no-brainer.
00:46:10.880 Head to SimpliSafeBeck.com, SimpliSafeBeck.com, and get a free HD security camera.
00:46:17.920 That's SimpliSafeBeck.com.
00:46:20.400 Make sure you know my show sent you.
00:46:23.000 Ten seconds.
00:46:25.020 And we're right into it.
00:46:27.420 We go now to the convention floor to our analyst, Stu Bregeer?
00:46:38.200 Yes!
00:46:38.740 Hi, Stu.
00:46:39.580 How are you?
00:46:40.140 Glenn, how are you?
00:46:41.560 Very good.
00:46:42.360 Very good.
00:46:42.940 You were just here in the studio.
00:46:44.380 I didn't know if it was going to be you on the convention floor.
00:46:48.060 You know, ironic that you were at a studio for all this time, and now you're back, and
00:46:52.540 here I am at the convention.
00:46:54.540 At the convention.
00:46:55.880 Oh, I couldn't resist.
00:46:57.240 Yeah.
00:46:57.560 I could not miss this.
00:46:59.460 Okay.
00:47:00.000 You sound very excited.
00:47:01.740 The energy here is just incredible, Glenn.
00:47:05.800 Okay.
00:47:07.000 Where is this convention?
00:47:10.140 It's in the United States of America.
00:47:13.400 Is that right?
00:47:16.560 Kind of a U.S.
00:47:17.580 They could have had it overseas, but they just love this country.
00:47:22.120 All right.
00:47:22.660 Okay.
00:47:22.900 So, uh, it's actually, uh, in cyberspace, uh, which I understand.
00:47:28.900 Well, sure.
00:47:29.780 There's some people who are attending via Zoom.
00:47:33.080 Um, however, I want you to just take in the energy of the onsite, uh, conference that I'm
00:47:40.280 enjoying right now.
00:47:41.240 Just, just listen to this passion for Joe Biden.
00:47:47.080 It's, uh, it's electric.
00:47:48.620 It is.
00:47:49.400 It is.
00:47:49.640 Yeah.
00:47:50.240 It's, uh, I mean, it's really amazing.
00:47:53.780 I mean, we can all get together and reminisce about times in our lives where we've seen the
00:48:00.540 most exciting things we've ever seen before.
00:48:02.940 And I think, I mean, the Super Bowl.
00:48:05.540 Right.
00:48:06.060 Super Bowl.
00:48:06.440 The Olympic Games.
00:48:08.060 Right.
00:48:08.620 Right.
00:48:09.140 The, the Lilith Fair.
00:48:11.220 The, the, the, the, the Fire Festival.
00:48:14.140 Right.
00:48:15.700 The Southeastern Actuarial Convention of 1989.
00:48:18.920 Wait a minute.
00:48:19.600 I would put this event right in that, in that area.
00:48:22.320 Really?
00:48:22.800 Right in the.
00:48:23.400 With the actuaries.
00:48:25.460 The actuarial conversation and the Super Bowl.
00:48:28.180 And the, and the Fire Festival.
00:48:30.440 And the Fire Festival.
00:48:31.260 Wow.
00:48:31.720 Right in there.
00:48:32.360 Right.
00:48:32.720 It's mixed right in.
00:48:33.540 Yeah.
00:48:33.780 And I think that's important.
00:48:34.980 You never know what's going to happen here.
00:48:37.820 Right.
00:48:38.040 All sorts of crazy stuff's happened so far.
00:48:40.520 Right.
00:48:40.900 The vice presidential nominee, we expect to know officially what's already been announced.
00:48:49.120 Right.
00:48:49.760 And that's going to be exciting.
00:48:51.300 That's going to be very exciting.
00:48:52.860 Right now, we.
00:48:53.620 To see her with Joe Biden, which we've already seen last week, but we're going to see it again.
00:48:58.940 Yeah.
00:48:59.360 And we're going to see him on Zoom again.
00:49:01.360 Right.
00:49:01.720 Which everyone in America loves Zoom.
00:49:04.180 You know?
00:49:05.840 It's not an annoying way to live your life.
00:49:08.480 Right.
00:49:08.820 Talking to everybody through a screen and it glitches.
00:49:11.500 It disconnects and they're on mute.
00:49:13.720 And then they're talking for five minutes and they don't know they're on mute.
00:49:17.500 Well, but this is not, from what I understand, this is not a live, live event.
00:49:22.740 I mean, there would be a few things that are live, but it's mainly all pre-produced.
00:49:27.060 In an exciting way, though.
00:49:29.340 You know what else is pre-produced?
00:49:30.720 Independence Day, the movie about the aliens, pre-produced.
00:49:33.580 That wasn't live.
00:49:34.380 People don't know that.
00:49:35.420 It could be that exciting.
00:49:36.880 No, we know that was a movie.
00:49:39.280 Oh, it's going to be so fun.
00:49:41.560 I think the most excited person here on the convention floor, and again, I want you to listen to this crowd.
00:49:46.120 Hello, are you there?
00:49:51.760 You guys getting that?
00:49:52.760 Yeah.
00:49:53.120 No, we hear it.
00:49:55.480 We've got it.
00:49:57.380 Hello?
00:49:58.000 It's pretty amazing.
00:49:58.920 I don't know if you can get that.
00:49:59.760 I don't know if it's picking it up.
00:50:00.860 All right.
00:50:01.460 But I think probably the most excited person I've talked to is Bob.
00:50:06.660 Bob.
00:50:07.100 Now, Bob is the IT guy.
00:50:10.300 He's the guy that's setting up the Zoom calls.
00:50:12.980 And he's the guy I talked to about the Wi-Fi password.
00:50:18.380 So now I'm on Wi-Fi.
00:50:20.180 Very excited to give it to me.
00:50:22.160 Wow.
00:50:22.580 Oddly enough, the password's Trump 2020, which I thought was strange.
00:50:26.180 It's a strange choice.
00:50:27.680 Right.
00:50:28.080 So there's a new Pew poll out that shows that prior to Joe Biden selecting Kamala Harris,
00:50:37.000 he had 56 percent of the voters who backed the vice president over Trump.
00:50:45.640 But now that he has decided that he's going to have her as the running mate, they don't have any numbers.
00:50:55.920 But what they do have is that 19 percent of those 56 percent say they're only supporting Biden because he's not he's not he's not Trump.
00:51:10.540 Well, I think that's the cause of all this excitement that we're feeling here.
00:51:15.600 The energy is palpable.
00:51:17.380 Yeah.
00:51:17.540 Nine percent say that they're voting for him because of his positions and his policies.
00:51:22.880 Nine nine percent.
00:51:23.720 That's incredible, but much more than zero percent.
00:51:28.260 It's much more than zero.
00:51:30.480 Nine more than zero.
00:51:32.420 Right.
00:51:33.300 Right.
00:51:33.940 That's a lot.
00:51:36.220 It's a lot.
00:51:36.900 It's more than seven and eight, too.
00:51:38.940 Right.
00:51:39.280 If you go in order, you're going to get all those numbers below nine.
00:51:41.760 It's going to be more than all of them.
00:51:43.200 Right.
00:51:43.440 So that's incredible.
00:51:44.520 And that's the kind of stuff that you're going to be covering tonight.
00:51:46.820 Yes, I'm very excited about it.
00:51:48.500 Yeah.
00:51:48.540 All right.
00:51:49.040 Bob, we're going to be hanging out.
00:51:50.100 He's the only other person here.
00:51:51.760 Right.
00:51:52.240 But he's wonderful.
00:51:53.940 Right.
00:51:54.220 And he's trying to get me to vote for Donald Trump.
00:51:56.360 Right.
00:51:56.860 Which is strange.
00:51:58.260 He seems to be a campaign operative.
00:52:00.020 Would not be surprised if the Zoom call crashes tonight.
00:52:02.380 Right.
00:52:02.700 Would not be surprised.
00:52:05.380 All right.
00:52:05.920 Well, how is it?
00:52:06.600 Do you have any word on the health and well-being of Joe Biden?
00:52:10.700 Is he up and raring to go?
00:52:13.100 And really excited about this night, I'm sure.
00:52:15.920 From what I understand, they do have a backup generator in case the electricity goes out.
00:52:20.760 Because as you know, he's powered by electricity at this point.
00:52:23.580 Right.
00:52:23.700 So, in case the power goes down, they could just plug him right in.
00:52:28.340 Right.
00:52:28.660 Turn him on like the Matrix.
00:52:29.780 Everything will be fine.
00:52:30.460 Okay, great.
00:52:31.380 Thank you very much, Stu.
00:52:32.420 Thank you.
00:52:32.760 It's good to have you on location today at the convention.
00:52:39.100 Pat joins us today.
00:52:41.280 You know, the one thing that speaks volumes is the fact that most of the people voting
00:52:51.700 for Joe Biden are not voting for him.
00:52:54.080 Yeah.
00:52:54.200 It's not enough to vote against.
00:52:56.880 Nine percent are excited about his policies.
00:53:00.360 Mm-hmm.
00:53:00.840 Mm-hmm.
00:53:01.320 Not good.
00:53:02.220 Did you also see the CNN poll?
00:53:04.120 Have you guys talked about the CNN poll yet?
00:53:05.760 No.
00:53:07.120 They took it last in early June.
00:53:09.960 Mm-hmm.
00:53:10.260 And he was 14.
00:53:11.060 Biden, 14 points over up on Trump.
00:53:14.420 Mm-hmm.
00:53:14.860 They took it again this last week.
00:53:17.160 It's down to four, which is within the margin of error, plus or minus 4%.
00:53:22.040 So he's in a virtual tie right now with Joe Biden, according to CNN.
00:53:27.220 Google and Facebook haven't really helped out all that much yet.
00:53:31.660 No, that is true.
00:53:32.740 They can swing that vote, you know, by just simply reminding people who they know are Democrat
00:53:39.300 to vote on election day and not remind anybody who is a Republican.
00:53:46.220 So we have that.
00:53:47.700 Oh, Stu is back.
00:53:49.080 That was a quick flight.
00:53:50.300 Yeah.
00:53:50.540 Uh, travel was really impressive these days.
00:53:53.560 Yeah.
00:53:53.660 But what an event.
00:53:54.380 What a time.
00:53:54.920 What a time.
00:53:56.040 Sounded electric.
00:53:56.920 It really did.
00:53:57.320 Is anyone, seriously, is anyone that you know going to watch this?
00:54:03.720 No one I know.
00:54:05.240 I mean, I'll-
00:54:05.800 I'm certainly not.
00:54:06.460 For work purposes, I'll probably have to tune into some highlights.
00:54:09.600 Yeah, for work.
00:54:10.200 Yeah, for-
00:54:10.680 You're going to watch the highlights.
00:54:11.280 I'm going to watch the highlights.
00:54:12.360 Yeah.
00:54:12.560 For work, I will probably type in Zoom and convention.
00:54:19.480 Whether I click on the hyperlink to actually open it up, I don't know.
00:54:25.380 But that's just kind of the exciting part of this whole thing, you know?
00:54:29.940 Will anyone watch it or not?
00:54:31.780 It really is amazing.
00:54:32.940 I can't imagine anyone watching it.
00:54:34.740 Seriously.
00:54:35.440 It's just dead.
00:54:36.520 I mean, it was a dumb event anyway.
00:54:38.280 The conventions have never been anything I've been excited about.
00:54:41.040 No, the only reason why most Americans watch it was because you were trapped.
00:54:44.360 It was the only thing on all of the networks.
00:54:47.080 Are they still putting it on the networks tonight?
00:54:48.540 I don't think so.
00:54:49.640 Really?
00:54:49.960 I thought they still were.
00:54:51.280 Because that's how I was going to watch it.
00:54:52.740 If it's not on there, then I'm definitely not watching it.
00:54:54.380 I listened to, somebody looked that up.
00:54:57.120 I looked, I was listening to NPR today and they said that, you know, it's on Zoom.
00:55:02.820 Well, but that's how they're communicating, right?
00:55:05.200 Like, you don't have to go to Zoom to watch it, do you?
00:55:07.780 That can't possibly be how this is happening.
00:55:09.880 I assume it's going to be on CNN and Fox and they're going to be airing the speeches, right?
00:55:14.300 It's got to be.
00:55:15.200 It's got to be.
00:55:15.900 It's got to be.
00:55:16.480 If it's only on Zoom, think about this though, Glenn.
00:55:18.940 Think about, we've been doing this show together since the 2000 election.
00:55:22.840 You've been doing it with Pat going back even further than that.
00:55:26.180 We've been through a lot of elections.
00:55:28.020 Never have I seen less passion for a candidate than Joe Biden.
00:55:32.420 Right.
00:55:32.660 I mean, they hate Trump.
00:55:33.760 There's no doubt there's passion there.
00:55:35.100 Yes.
00:55:35.480 But like, no one cares.
00:55:37.320 But not for him, not for Biden at all.
00:55:38.740 Just a placeholder.
00:55:39.840 He is just a placeholder.
00:55:41.860 There's no interest in what he's doing.
00:55:43.520 50% of the people who say they're going to vote for Joe Biden expect him to be dead by
00:55:48.980 the end of four years.
00:55:50.420 Okay.
00:55:51.040 Wait, what?
00:55:51.700 About 50% of people who say they're voting for Joe Biden don't expect him to make it
00:55:57.720 the full term.
00:55:58.760 So he's not even a placeholder.
00:56:00.660 And they're probably right.
00:56:02.240 If he were to be elected, I don't expect him to make it through his first term.
00:56:06.120 Yeah.
00:56:06.340 Well, at least not dead.
00:56:08.040 But not dead.
00:56:08.840 He doesn't seem competent.
00:56:09.540 He does not seem competent to be able to do the job.
00:56:12.100 We were talking about that clip the other day from the Palin debate where he looked,
00:56:15.180 again, he's Joe Biden.
00:56:16.240 He's never been great.
00:56:17.580 But he looked competent.
00:56:18.660 He looked like he was on top of what he was saying.
00:56:20.860 You look at him today and it's, it's, I mean, it's sad.
00:56:24.840 It is.
00:56:25.760 By the way, ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox will carry the convention from 10 to 11 Eastern.
00:56:31.620 C-SPAN, CNN, MSNBC, and PBS will carry both hours.
00:56:36.300 And it's only 29 to 11.
00:56:37.320 It's only two hours and they'll only carry one.
00:56:40.940 Two hours is going to be, it's going to feel like a century though.
00:56:45.780 I mean, think about a five minute Zoom meeting that you have during a work week and how agonizing
00:56:50.340 that is.
00:56:51.060 Put that in for two hours.
00:56:53.240 That's going to be, it's going to feel like a century.
00:56:55.340 Agonizing.
00:56:55.480 I do think that the Republicans have a real advantage out of pure luck here to see how
00:57:00.780 bad this goes and what doesn't work.
00:57:03.900 Because no one has any idea what's going to work here.
00:57:05.980 They should be watching this very closely and see what is a disaster and think about
00:57:10.300 maybe if it's really bad, maybe it's not two hours a night.
00:57:13.100 Maybe it's 15 minutes a night.
00:57:14.860 It is.
00:57:15.180 Trim the thing down.
00:57:16.120 You have Trump speak.
00:57:16.860 You have Pence speak, you know, maybe one or two other key people.
00:57:19.660 And just see, this is the problem.
00:57:20.740 Trump is good at these kinds of things.
00:57:23.260 He is a good producer.
00:57:25.640 He knows how to produce exciting television.
00:57:28.820 Sure.
00:57:29.220 Of course.
00:57:29.520 He'll watch this and go, well, that was an abomination.
00:57:32.500 And he'll come up with something that's crazy.
00:57:35.980 In a good way.
00:57:37.360 In a good way.
00:57:38.240 This is his strength, right?
00:57:39.380 Yeah.
00:57:39.780 Unfortunately, his strength is also with crowds.
00:57:42.260 And not having a crowd to react to, it's going to suck for him, I think.
00:57:45.420 He loves that.
00:57:45.800 I don't know why he wouldn't do a crowd.
00:57:47.680 Why he wouldn't do the last night of the convention.
00:57:50.420 If they do it all virtual.
00:57:52.040 The last night of the convention.
00:57:54.200 You telling me you can't find a place, you know, where people will show up to support him?
00:58:00.940 They would show up.
00:58:01.620 And he did it outside.
00:58:02.360 But I think he got burned a little bit by Tulsa.
00:58:04.120 Yeah.
00:58:04.300 Because a lot of people got it after that.
00:58:06.460 And so he doesn't want to go through that again.
00:58:08.620 How many people died?
00:58:10.000 We know.
00:58:10.780 In Tulsa.
00:58:11.300 We know for sure from the media that Herman Cain died directly because of Tulsa.
00:58:15.040 Yeah, directly.
00:58:15.740 Directly because of Tulsa.
00:58:16.540 Directly because he'd also been at about a hundred other cities.
00:58:19.520 But Tulsa's the one he got at.
00:58:20.580 But it was Tulsa.
00:58:20.840 Yeah.
00:58:21.040 We know that.
00:58:21.820 We know it.
00:58:22.540 Yes.
00:58:23.020 We know it.
00:58:23.380 Trump killed him.
00:58:24.280 Trump.
00:58:24.600 Yeah.
00:58:24.840 Trump killed him.
00:58:25.740 Yeah.
00:58:25.840 Trump.
00:58:26.480 So.
00:58:26.960 I'm sorry.
00:58:27.480 George Stephanopoulos.
00:58:29.420 Thanks for dropping by.
00:58:31.120 Back in just a minute.
00:58:35.140 All right.
00:58:36.200 Our sponsor.
00:58:37.420 This this half hour is Relief Factor.
00:58:39.680 Deborah lives in Massachusetts.
00:58:41.480 Why?
00:58:41.900 I don't know.
00:58:42.720 But, you know, Texas is open, Deborah.
00:58:45.880 And you're the kind of person we want down here.
00:58:47.420 Anyway, up until very recently, she had a serious problem.
00:58:51.880 She had hip pain that was keeping her up at nights and not allowing her to get any rest.
00:58:56.340 And Deborah was starting to get a little desperate.
00:58:58.500 Fortunately, she heard about Relief Factor on the radio and decided to give it a try.
00:59:03.480 Literally within four days, Deborah says the pain in her hip was gone, not diminished, actually fully gone.
00:59:11.800 Deborah has been taking Relief Factor ever since.
00:59:13.900 And when she goes to bed at the end of the day, she knows she's going to get a good night's sleep.
00:59:17.860 Deborah got her life back.
00:59:19.360 That's remarkable.
00:59:20.280 And four days?
00:59:21.600 That doesn't usually happen.
00:59:23.240 But try it.
00:59:25.240 Try it.
00:59:25.800 Relief Factor.
00:59:26.720 It's not a drug developed by doctors.
00:59:28.900 Seventy percent of the people who try it go on to order more because they find relief.
00:59:34.080 You can order the three-week quick start now for only $19.95.
00:59:38.200 What do you have to lose beside the pain?

00:59:50.280 10 seconds.
00:59:51.180 Station ID.
00:59:59.600 All right.
01:00:03.600 Stu and Pat joins us for this hour as we talk about the convention.
01:00:08.440 I do want to point this out before we go back into political talk.
01:00:12.960 The city of Philadelphia's Art Commission, of course it was the Art Commission, has announced
01:00:18.340 that it is going to remove the 144-year-old statue of Christopher Columbus that stands at Marconi
01:00:26.080 Plaza.
01:00:28.480 Now, I got to be honest with you, Philadelphia.
01:00:34.400 Why do you have a mob?
01:00:36.900 I don't mean like the mob.
01:00:38.400 Why is the mob?
01:00:39.280 If the mob isn't patriotic, and I don't mean the mob on the streets.
01:00:43.540 I mean, you know, if they're not protecting Christopher Columbus, what good are they to your city?
01:00:50.260 Seriously.
01:00:51.140 In the good old days, the mob would have never let that happen.
01:00:54.400 You ain't taking down no Curtis of a Columbus statue in Marconi Plaza.
01:00:58.240 You understand what I'm saying?
01:00:59.440 You and your little fozzy fozzy people can get the hell out of our neighborhood.
01:01:03.180 That's what would have happened.
01:01:05.480 What happened to our mob?
01:01:07.960 I was just watching that Netflix documentary, Fear City.
01:01:11.840 I had Giuliani on to talk about it on Studios America last week.
01:01:16.120 And that mob, that mob would not put up with taking a Christopher Columbus statue down.
01:01:21.240 It was a gift.
01:01:23.500 It was a gift from the Italian government to the city of Philadelphia in 1876, our centennial.
01:01:30.840 Now, 1876, a gift from the people of Italy, and the mob is going to let the...
01:01:39.320 Look, let's be honest.
01:01:41.460 The mob runs Philadelphia.
01:01:44.940 It runs Philadelphia.
01:01:46.120 It does.
01:01:46.600 That's official?
01:01:47.500 Yeah, it runs Philadelphia.
01:01:49.240 I mean, if the mob existed.
01:01:51.600 The mob doesn't exist.
01:01:52.740 No, no.
01:01:53.040 Yeah.
01:01:53.320 It's a myth.
01:01:54.660 It's a myth.
01:01:55.540 Do they run the city?
01:01:56.800 They run the city.
01:01:58.180 They run the city of Philadelphia.
01:02:00.060 But it's a myth.
01:02:00.840 Of course it's a myth.
01:02:02.120 Who's...
01:02:02.760 What?
01:02:03.140 Are you going to go on air and say the mob exists?
01:02:07.560 And runs Philadelphia?
01:02:08.780 You can't say that.
01:02:09.480 You can't say that.
01:02:09.980 That's crazy talk.
01:02:11.360 It's a myth.
01:02:12.200 There's the mob.
01:02:13.580 They don't even exist.
01:02:14.680 You'll be fitted for cement overshoes over there.
01:02:17.680 But they run the city.
01:02:21.680 And everybody in Philadelphia knows it.
01:02:25.840 And how they are letting the American people down.
01:02:32.100 I mean, seriously.
01:02:33.420 If you can't trust the mob, who can you trust?
01:02:35.580 If you can't...
01:02:36.340 If the mob is no longer American.
01:02:39.320 You know, they were like, you bring those Nazis over to me, I'll break their legs.
01:02:44.760 No Nazis gonna be hanging out in my neighborhood.
01:02:47.820 You know what I'm saying?
01:02:49.220 That's the way the mob used to be.
01:02:51.580 Red, white, and blue.
01:02:53.700 And the red was flowing freely when somebody was trying to mess with them and Christopher Columbus.
01:03:01.080 I don't know what's happening.
01:03:02.720 I don't know what's happening.
01:03:03.520 I don't understand our world anymore.
01:03:04.800 Perhaps the myth isn't capable of defending this statue.
01:03:08.640 I would not say that.
01:03:11.540 You would not.
01:03:12.560 But it's a myth.
01:03:13.300 No, I would not say that.
01:03:14.920 Yes, they are a myth.
01:03:15.960 But I would not say that the myth is not capable of doing it.
01:03:19.920 How would a myth be capable of doing anything?
01:03:22.440 You'll find out pretty quickly.
01:03:25.140 You'll find out pretty darn quickly.
01:03:28.880 Okay?
01:03:29.140 Okay, so we have that going on today.
01:03:35.780 We also have, we got to get back to our coverage of, you know, the election.
01:03:43.280 May I just say, as we're going to switch kind of and go a different direction here in a few minutes.
01:03:50.140 New York Democrats, listen to this.
01:03:52.800 New York Democrats are angered at the NYPD union because they've endorsed Trump.
01:04:01.540 Now, it's not like, like, like, what have you done for me lately?
01:04:04.860 It's not like you've forgotten me.
01:04:07.000 You know what I mean?
01:04:07.540 Hey, you Democrats, you're, you're trying to help everybody else.
01:04:11.360 And you've forgotten who really butters your bread.
01:04:13.980 No, no, they're against the New York police.
01:04:18.220 Yeah.
01:04:18.660 How are they surprised and disappointed and angered?
01:04:23.300 They're all on the streets saying they should be defunded.
01:04:25.360 They're taking millions and millions of dollars away from their budgets.
01:04:28.240 They're saying whenever they do anything to defend their own lives that they're criminals.
01:04:34.280 I would not want to go anywhere near a Democrat right now if I was a police officer.
01:04:38.960 I don't know how any of them could possibly even be voting for a Democrat, let alone supporting them.
01:04:43.360 The police officers union president said, I've had 36 years on this job.
01:04:47.200 The 21 is the president.
01:04:48.520 I can't remember when we've ever endorsed for office of the president of the United States until now.
01:04:53.880 That's how important this is.
01:04:58.020 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:05:02.200 All right.
01:05:02.980 Sometimes the best thing you can do to a process is just simplify it.
01:05:07.360 We complicate things all the time.
01:05:09.560 We're all learning this now.
01:05:11.260 Our lives were so complicated.
01:05:13.440 Everything was complicated.
01:05:14.440 And now we've just kind of boiled it down to the essentials and things are working pretty well.
01:05:18.400 I mean, not in business, of course, but when it comes to shaving creams and shaving, boil it down.
01:05:24.040 What do you need?
01:05:24.760 Really?
01:05:25.240 You don't need a razor with too many blades.
01:05:27.420 You don't need the creams and the foams and the gels electric shaver with 40 different attachments.
01:05:32.920 You don't need it.
01:05:34.120 What you do need is shave secret.
01:05:36.020 And that is a proprietary blend of essential oils.
01:05:39.380 And you only need a few drops on a wet palm.

01:06:39.140 My producers would like me to make this into a bigger deal.
01:06:42.860 And I just feel awkward doing it.
01:06:46.120 But we have an announcement to make.
01:06:50.260 I have been inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame.
01:06:54.620 Wow.
01:06:55.700 Congratulations.
01:06:56.620 Really exciting for me and my family.
01:06:58.960 And thank you.
01:07:01.260 If you voted, thank you so much.
01:07:03.180 I suspect mail-in voter fraud.
01:07:05.780 Well, Donald Trump and Russia.
01:07:07.560 He fixed it.
01:07:08.160 They were.
01:07:08.500 Yeah.
01:07:09.200 They were.
01:07:09.620 Instrumental.
01:07:10.260 They were.
01:07:11.500 Yeah.
01:07:12.300 But it was.
01:07:12.800 It's.
01:07:13.440 You know, I.
01:07:14.440 I didn't even think about it.
01:07:16.800 And I didn't want to make a big deal out of it.
01:07:19.980 You know, and ask you for your vote.
01:07:21.700 I was very uncomfortable the whole time because it doesn't make a difference in the listener's life.
01:07:25.340 I mean, a professional wouldn't have been that uncomfortable with it.
01:07:27.480 Someone who was going in the Radio Hall of Fame would just been able to do his job.
01:07:30.680 But.
01:07:31.380 Yeah.
01:07:31.820 But you know, you were very uncomfortable.
01:07:33.420 It was.
01:07:33.640 It was noticeable.
01:07:34.380 Yeah.
01:07:34.740 And I don't.
01:07:35.380 Because it doesn't, it doesn't affect you in your life, but it is an honor.
01:07:40.280 And I, I, I've been thinking about it.
01:07:43.380 I just found out about it.
01:07:44.420 And I, I was thinking about it over the weekend that, you know, that's Jack Benny and Bob Hope
01:07:49.180 and Larry Lujak and Charlie Tuna and Rush Limbaugh and Rush Limbaugh.
01:07:55.440 I mean, it's, it is quite a, just went in, right?
01:07:59.360 Mark Levin.
01:08:00.060 Yeah.
01:08:00.320 Yeah.
01:08:00.620 So it's, it's quite a, it's quite a field to be in with.
01:08:04.960 And it's a real honor and my, I thank you a great deal for just listening to us.
01:08:12.580 And I honestly don't know how I got into the Radio Hall of Fame as I am.
01:08:17.960 I stand by the worst broadcaster in America, but that's just how low America's standards
01:08:25.560 are right now.
01:08:26.460 Pat, we should probably say the unsaid of how much we had to do with it.
01:08:30.080 Yeah.
01:08:30.380 You know what I mean?
01:08:30.680 It really is.
01:08:31.280 It's really an honor for us through Glenn.
01:08:33.600 And so we thank the Radio Hall of Fame for that honor.
01:08:36.720 So I will tell you that I have to select somebody to induct me.
01:08:41.700 And so I, I don't know which one to ask here because you both are so great.
01:08:47.560 But Pat, do you know of somebody I should ask that would be really good?
01:08:54.100 Let's see.
01:08:55.340 And Stu, you should, because I'm going to ask you too after him.
01:08:58.360 But if you have somebody.
01:08:59.140 You're going to ask me to do this.
01:09:00.120 No, I'm just going to ask you if you know somebody that would be, you know, important
01:09:04.060 that, you know, would be.
01:09:06.080 I don't know of anybody that would really, you know, that's been with you a long time.
01:09:11.320 Yeah.
01:09:11.560 I was thinking Ben Shapiro, maybe.
01:09:14.420 Yeah.
01:09:14.780 Okay.
01:09:15.080 Yeah.
01:09:15.360 I was thinking about maybe Ben would be good.
01:09:17.540 That might be a good idea.
01:09:18.640 All right.
01:09:19.000 So, okay, I want to, we're going back to the convention and it's going to be an exciting
01:09:25.060 convention tonight and nobody's going to watch it.
01:09:28.320 But in case you happen to be in, I don't know, a critical care unit and you have no access
01:09:35.200 to the remote control and it's on CNN, this is who you will see tonight.
01:09:40.380 James Clyburn of South Carolina.
01:09:42.500 Riveting.
01:09:42.980 The highest ranking black member of Congress had a hugely influential figure.
01:09:47.440 Wow.
01:09:47.860 So cool.
01:09:48.300 You have, you have Clyburn kicking it off.
01:09:51.000 And so the excited, arguably saving Joe Biden's campaign.
01:09:54.920 That is true.
01:09:55.580 He gets the day one.
01:09:57.700 Yeah.
01:09:57.960 I mean, I guess it's the opener.
01:09:59.020 So that's kind of a big deal, but day one.
01:10:01.220 Yeah.
01:10:01.700 And nobody's carrying that first hour.
01:10:04.140 Then you get, so it's only the people watching on zoom.
01:10:07.680 I will say they respect minorities.
01:10:09.500 Those, those Democrats, they do.
01:10:10.640 They love them.
01:10:10.960 They do.
01:10:11.300 How about Senator Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada?
01:10:14.780 Pretty excited about her.
01:10:16.100 Really psyched about that.
01:10:18.600 And then you come into Andrew M. Cuomo.
01:10:21.120 Oh my gosh.
01:10:21.700 Don't, don't you?
01:10:22.300 He's really, they're really giving this.
01:10:23.680 They're really giving him a platform.
01:10:25.940 Is that great?
01:10:27.920 Stu, now this, this really bothers you for some reason.
01:10:31.200 Andrew Cuomo is awful.com.
01:10:33.340 Remember that?
01:10:34.100 Of course he is the worst.
01:10:35.260 He is the worst, the worst response to the coronavirus in the world.
01:10:40.260 That includes people handling pangolins in Wuhan.
01:10:43.800 He is the worst.
01:10:47.180 Not worse than Donald Trump though.
01:10:48.980 Much, much worse than Donald Trump.
01:10:50.860 Really?
01:10:51.180 Yeah.
01:10:51.440 It's interesting.
01:10:52.100 You notice that like Donald Trump, you could say has oversight over the entire nation.
01:10:57.080 Not Andrew Cuomo.
01:10:58.440 Andrew Cuomo infected the entire nation because people, he did such a bad job and he was encouraging
01:11:03.760 people to go out and live their life as normal.
01:11:05.940 And you know, fear is much worse than the virus.
01:11:07.720 He kept saying that on every, every, every interview over and over again.
01:11:10.760 Fear is much worse than this virus.
01:11:12.300 Fear is much, all the way up to like late March.
01:11:15.180 Like he's still that fear is much worse than this virus.
01:11:17.720 So what's happened is, uh, he wound up getting tens of thousands of people in his state killed
01:11:23.940 more than any other state by far.
01:11:26.260 The second highest, uh, per capita in the nation behind only New Jersey, which were all
01:11:32.040 people from New York, from Cuomo's, uh, that Connecticut was, I think was fourth.
01:11:36.480 So all those people also from New York going into Connecticut and infecting them, they've
01:11:41.320 done analysis of, of the genetic breakdown all across the country, including California,
01:11:46.960 California, Idaho, Wyoming, 80%, the New York strain.
01:11:51.220 Yeah.
01:11:51.540 Yeah.
01:11:51.900 Thanks a lot, Andrew.
01:11:53.040 You did a great job.
01:11:53.940 Only because wait, wait, wait, that is only because Donald Trump did not say that it was
01:11:58.840 coming from Europe.
01:11:59.920 Oh, really?
01:12:00.460 That's because that's, so what we're going to do is we're going to blame wherever it came
01:12:04.280 from most recently.
01:12:05.540 That's what it was.
01:12:06.320 That's how this works.
01:12:06.960 I want to make sure I understand it because if that's true, then everyone in America should
01:12:10.320 blame Andrew Cuomo because that's where it all came from was New York.
01:12:13.320 Yeah.
01:12:13.560 But what about his genius idea?
01:12:15.020 Sending sick people to a nursing homes?
01:12:17.140 Well, yeah, that was a great idea.
01:12:19.160 Now, sure.
01:12:20.220 First of all, he did that.
01:12:21.460 Okay.
01:12:21.740 Now he did that along with four other governors also did that.
01:12:25.000 He was the only one in America, however, that prevented nursing homes when they were bringing
01:12:29.260 in new patients, prevented them from testing on the basis of the, he did not want to,
01:12:33.780 to discriminate against their COVID status.
01:12:37.040 So if you were COVID positive or negative, it's like, you know, it's like being, it's
01:12:41.120 like being black or being gay or whatever.
01:12:44.000 You can't discriminate against an infectious disease positive test.
01:12:47.880 This used to happen.
01:12:48.860 This has happened a lot in the old leper caves and the leper colonies.
01:12:52.520 Yeah.
01:12:53.040 When one leper was transferred to another colony, there were several colonies.
01:12:59.040 They were democratic colonies that said, you can't test him for leprosy.
01:13:04.240 You can't do it.
01:13:05.580 You can do what you do.
01:13:06.840 Well, the fact that his face was falling off, that might've been a clue.
01:13:09.360 Yeah.
01:13:10.540 I mean, it's just possible.
01:13:11.960 And we should point out here that Cuomo also, once all of this happened and tens of thousands
01:13:17.200 of his own citizens died in what seems to be a plot from an evil madman to kill as many
01:13:22.900 old people as possible, once that went down, he then, in the middle of all of this going
01:13:28.660 on, changed the way they record deaths of people in nursing homes.
01:13:32.860 So that people who were in nursing homes, got sick in nursing homes, were close to death
01:13:37.620 in nursing homes, at the last minute were taken via ambulance to a hospital, he doesn't
01:13:41.680 count them as nursing home deaths.
01:13:42.860 So he's the only state in the union that does that.
01:13:46.520 Then, even though he knows he does that, he goes out and brags about how low his death
01:13:52.080 total is from nursing homes.
01:13:54.000 That's unbelievable.
01:13:54.940 He is the biggest liar in America.
01:13:58.860 But.
01:13:59.260 And he did such a terrible job.
01:14:01.500 The fact that anyone gives him any credit for this is mind boggling.
01:14:04.920 And he belongs perfectly on stage at that stupid convention tonight.
01:14:09.200 That's really, I mean, that's evil.
01:14:11.180 What he did was evil.
01:14:13.040 Yeah.
01:14:13.440 It's just evil.
01:14:14.500 And the covering of the tracks.
01:14:16.020 I mean, look, we all make mistakes.
01:14:17.680 And if you would have, you know, made the mistake.
01:14:19.760 But this was so apparent and so clear.
01:14:22.220 I mean, the nursing homes were coming to him.
01:14:24.340 They told him.
01:14:24.900 Over and over again.
01:14:25.800 You're killing our patients.
01:14:27.300 You're killing our patients.
01:14:28.220 You have no way to deal with this.
01:14:28.820 Right.
01:14:29.080 They're not set up to deal with a pandemic.
01:14:31.460 That's not what nursing homes are.
01:14:33.220 That's not the way.
01:14:34.200 They said, we don't even have private rooms for these people.
01:14:37.440 There are multiple people in the same room.
01:14:39.780 You put a COVID positive person in there.
01:14:42.320 What is going to happen to the most vulnerable population of mine?
01:14:44.520 They're getting COVID.
01:14:45.480 Of course they're getting COVID.
01:14:46.560 Yeah.
01:14:46.640 Okay.
01:14:47.260 So go through the rest of the list here of who else is there.
01:14:50.160 Senator Doug Jones of Alabama, who's just about to lose his seat.
01:14:53.800 So that's great.
01:14:54.460 He gets a final chance to speak.
01:14:56.720 Little Hail Mary there.
01:14:58.020 John Kasich.
01:14:59.560 Republican John Kasich.
01:15:02.020 Really?
01:15:02.500 Well, he is a Republican.
01:15:04.240 Yeah, I'd give him that.
01:15:05.500 Really?
01:15:06.280 He's a Republican.
01:15:08.140 He's the guy who is probably the most responsible for Donald Trump winning.
01:15:13.160 Donald Trump should love John Kasich.
01:15:15.160 Yeah.
01:15:15.620 Because John Kasich not getting out, at least this is the theory.
01:15:20.180 And I don't know if it would have been true because Trump was a juggernaut.
01:15:25.000 He would have won anyway.
01:15:26.380 But if he, yeah.
01:15:27.180 But if the only chance of him not winning would be if he would have dropped out, if Kasich would
01:15:33.940 have dropped out because he just held a lot of people that were not Trump people and it
01:15:39.060 could have gone to somebody else.
01:15:40.000 So he did Trump a favor and he's probably the most clearly responsible guy for the Trump
01:15:49.340 presidency.
01:15:50.140 And so I welcome him over there.
01:15:52.800 I welcome him.
01:15:54.580 Senator Amy Klobuchar.
01:15:57.540 She surged to a third place finish in the New Hampshire primary, then dropped out and
01:16:02.440 endorsed Mr. Biden.
01:16:03.500 And so he's awarding her because she was early on the bandwagon.
01:16:07.580 Then you got Representative Gwen Moore of Wisconsin.
01:16:10.920 I love her.
01:16:11.800 Michelle Obama, former first lady.
01:16:14.400 I can't wait to hear that.
01:16:16.760 Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont.
01:16:19.960 Benny Thompson of Mississippi.
01:16:22.140 The Benny Thompson.
01:16:22.920 The Benny Thompson.
01:16:23.860 I know a lot of people have been clamoring.
01:16:25.440 When is Benny Thompson going to speak?
01:16:27.040 Right.
01:16:27.280 And then other people are like, I'm sorry, who?
01:16:30.800 So this is what this is what they're doing tonight.
01:16:33.620 Now, let me ask you.
01:16:34.760 And Gretchen Whitmer.
01:16:35.480 Who is?
01:16:36.420 Oh, geez.
01:16:37.020 Don't forget her.
01:16:39.420 So you have you have these people speaking and many of them.
01:16:44.060 I mean, Cuomo is responsible for what is happening in New York.
01:16:47.620 New York is dead, as we will show you in the next hour.
01:16:51.880 It is absolutely dead.
01:16:54.080 May not come back.
01:16:56.000 I mean, it's phenomenal what's going on in New York and media is not covering it.
01:17:00.680 You have these people that have also not condemned any of the violence on the streets.
01:17:06.060 Listen to this.
01:17:06.940 This is from Seattle's BLM.
01:17:10.060 As they are marching in neighborhoods now.
01:17:12.620 Listen to this.
01:17:16.060 They're a little quiet.
01:17:18.700 So this is a silent protest?
01:17:20.140 It is a silent protest.
01:17:21.400 Do you have it?
01:17:21.820 It's very powerful.
01:17:22.700 Do you know that you are living in a historically black neighborhood right now?
01:17:28.480 Do you know that?
01:17:30.220 Do you know that before your white f*** came here?
01:17:32.660 This was all black people?
01:17:33.940 I think it was a historically Native American neighborhood.
01:17:36.220 Do you know people like you came in here and basically hauled all the land from the black
01:17:43.200 people for less than what it was worth, kicked them out so you could live here.
01:17:47.140 Do you know that?
01:17:48.160 What are you going to do to fix it?
01:17:50.280 Because you're part of that gentrification.
01:17:51.820 So they're telling them, get out of your house.
01:17:54.360 Give us your house.
01:17:56.000 White people need to give up their house.
01:17:57.920 And this is something that has been going on now for a while in other cities.
01:18:02.920 And let me play one more.
01:18:05.280 This is from Minnesota.
01:18:06.660 Listen to the madman at a Black Lives Matter rally here.
01:18:12.180 I'm a black man being terrorized by this f***ing clansman right here.
01:18:16.680 We are terrorized by a grand wizard.
01:18:19.360 Don't get the grand wizard living in your f***ing neighborhood.
01:18:22.660 All the clan exists in Hugo, Minnesota.
01:18:25.180 And it's right here.
01:18:26.080 Don't run now.
01:18:27.300 Don't run now, racist white people.
01:18:30.140 I'm here.
01:18:30.800 Oh, yeah, we pull up.
01:18:32.220 We pull the f***ing out.
01:18:34.640 And we're here.
01:18:35.720 Come on over here to Blue Lives Matter saying.
01:18:38.400 Blue Lives and f***ing.
01:18:39.940 And the people who are going to support black people, f***ing you and Minnesota.
01:18:44.300 This is not cool.
01:18:45.240 It's not okay.
01:18:46.260 Can you imagine how you feel if you're a white person?
01:18:49.480 Oh, yeah.
01:18:50.280 And he asked the crowd, see if we give a f*** about burning this town down.
01:18:56.920 I mean, if you are a white person, you have to be terrified right now.
01:19:03.780 And I just don't believe that there is an overwhelming number of Democrats who are cool with the Democratic Party playing footsies with these people, saying that we should get rid of the police.
01:19:20.420 It's why guns have never been higher than they are right now.
01:19:27.140 Gun sales are through the roof right now.
01:19:30.880 Never, ever been higher than they are in the last month.
01:19:34.760 Up 152%.
01:19:36.040 Yeah, it's crazy.
01:19:37.460 And why is that happening?
01:19:39.320 Because of the Democrats?
01:19:40.760 You're damn right because of the Democrats.
01:19:43.060 Remember, they're the ones that you wouldn't even have a gun or an opportunity to buy a gun while this was going on in your neighborhoods and your cities.
01:19:52.440 They would have you disarmed and cut the police and endorse these people in your neighborhoods.
01:20:00.860 I'm sorry, I just don't think there's a 155% increase in gun sales.
01:20:07.700 These kinds of people in the streets who are yelling those kinds of things to white people, and you're going to vote for the party that dismisses it?
01:20:16.180 Nope.
01:20:16.800 I just don't buy it.
01:20:18.140 Let me tell you about LifeLock, troubling news in the cyber world.
01:20:29.080 Yet again, over 900 Enterprise VPN servers were recently hacked, and the ransomware gangs responsible have shared usernames and passwords harvested there in a private forum.
01:20:41.440 Enterprise VPNs, largely used by companies who have employees working at home, so practically everybody.
01:20:48.140 Basically, once these cyber criminals hack into the VPN server, they have access to the entire internal network of the company.
01:20:55.580 If you work for one of those companies, they have access to your information.
01:20:58.820 And it's important to understand how this and identity theft will work.
01:21:04.040 We put our information at risk every time we're on the Internet.
01:21:07.980 But now, with all of us, with Zoom, I mean, they could get tens of people's of their information, tens of people, just by going on to Zoom tonight and hacking into the people watching the conference for the DNC.
01:21:22.080 I mean, maybe eight people could be in.
01:21:25.800 No one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses, but LifeLock can see the threats that you might miss on your own.

01:21:47.640 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:21:57.900 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:21:59.760 We are glad you're here.
01:22:00.700 Coming up next hour, we have some very, very important information as far as it goes to the economy and what is coming.
01:22:14.500 Warren Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway, has just invested $700 million in gold.
01:22:22.720 Same for me.
01:22:23.420 Just did the same thing last week.
01:22:25.240 Right.
01:22:25.580 Exactly $700 million, too.
01:22:27.320 And Wall Street is like, why?
01:22:28.800 You make so much money on Wall Street.
01:22:30.900 Yeah, I know you can.
01:22:32.740 And pigs get slaughtered.
01:22:35.440 There are things that are coming your way that you need to be aware of.
01:22:40.820 And we'll tell you about those coming up next hour also.
01:22:46.360 What's happening in New York City has really been put into focus by James Alcher.
01:22:55.120 He is a pretty amazing guy.
01:22:59.460 Been on this program before.
01:23:01.000 I really like him.
01:23:03.040 But he is a New York City native.
01:23:07.700 He is a guy who's just a plain talker and, you know, talks to everybody and just shoots straight.
01:23:14.160 What he had to say about what's coming next for you for New York will give you an idea of what's coming for the rest of the country.
01:23:24.780 Coming up.
01:23:25.560 Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:23:29.320 There is a lot to discuss this hour.
01:23:31.940 I'm going to tell you how New York City is dead and is not coming back.
01:23:37.780 It's a really strong and sad, sad case.
01:23:42.200 Also, how the dollar is doing and what's not coming back.
01:23:48.880 All that begins in 60 seconds.
01:23:51.440 Information you must have to navigate the waters that are coming your way.
01:23:56.540 We begin in one minute.
01:23:59.040 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:24:03.020 So how's your financial health doing right now?
01:24:05.780 It is a critical thing to pay attention to, especially with the future being so uncertain.
01:24:09.840 And it's why you need to be asking yourself, what are some of the things that I could do to save money right now?
01:24:15.740 How can I cut some of my monthly costs that's already draining my bank account?
01:24:20.080 If you're a homeowner, one of the best things you can do is to explore refinancing of your mortgage.
01:24:25.980 Mortgage interest was hovering around the 4% range not that long ago.
01:24:30.040 We were talking about being perfectly reasonable a year ago.
01:24:33.860 But right now, we're not.

01:25:22.400 So, it's really rare that I will read a full article on the air, but I want to read this from James Alcher.
01:25:38.280 He wrote on his LinkedIn account,
01:25:42.760 I love New York City.
01:25:44.620 When I first moved to New York City, it was a dream come true.
01:25:47.200 Every corner was like a theater production happening right in front of me.
01:25:50.800 So much personality, so many stories.
01:25:52.980 Every subculture I loved was in New York City.
01:25:55.800 I could play chess all day and all night.
01:25:59.000 You know, one of the things about New York City is I've done that.
01:26:02.700 I've gone out in the middle of the night or whatever and just walked around and you will come up across these places,
01:26:09.540 these chess rooms where these Russians are playing chess and you can just sit down and play anybody.
01:26:15.620 And it's phenomenal.
01:26:17.500 And it's like that with everything in New York.
01:26:21.220 He said I could go to comedy clubs.
01:26:22.740 I could start any type of business.
01:26:24.220 I could meet people.
01:26:25.300 I had family, friends, opportunities.
01:26:26.740 No matter what happened to me, New York was a net I could fall back on and bounce back up.
01:26:32.700 But now it's completely dead.
01:26:35.500 But New York City always bounces back, they say.
01:26:37.980 No, not this time.
01:26:39.480 But New York City is the center of the financial universe.
01:26:42.340 Opportunities will flourish here again.
01:26:44.280 No, not this time.
01:26:46.740 NYC has experienced worse.
01:26:49.040 No, it hasn't.
01:26:50.860 A Facebook group formed a few weeks ago that was for people who were planning a move and wanted others to talk to and advise, give them advice.
01:26:59.600 Within two or three days, it had 10,000 members.
01:27:03.080 Every day, I see more and more posts.
01:27:05.380 I've been in New York City forever, but I guess this time I have to say goodbye.
01:27:09.460 Every single day, I see those posts.
01:27:11.440 I've been screenshotting them from my scrapbook.
01:27:14.100 The three most important reasons to move to New York City.
01:27:17.140 Business opportunities, culture, and food.
01:27:19.760 And, of course, friends.
01:27:21.060 But if everything I say is even one-tenth of what I think, there won't be as many opportunities to make friends.
01:27:28.480 And that equals business.
01:27:30.360 Midtown Manhattan, the center of business in New York City, is empty.
01:27:33.520 Even though people can go back to work, famous office buildings like the Time Life skyscraper is 90% empty.
01:27:42.160 Businesses realize they don't need to get their employees at the office.
01:27:45.560 In fact, they realize they're even more productive without everyone back in the office.
01:27:50.820 The Time Life building can handle 8,000 workers.
01:27:54.460 Now, it maybe has 500 workers back in the building.
01:27:59.200 What do you mean, a friend of mine said when I told him Midtown should be called Ghost Town.
01:28:04.340 I'm in my office right now.
01:28:06.160 Really? What are you doing there, I asked.
01:28:08.640 Packing up.
01:28:10.160 Then he laughed.
01:28:11.640 Okay, I'm shutting it down.
01:28:13.480 He works in the entertainment business.
01:28:15.500 Another friend of mine works at a major investment bank as a managing director.
01:28:19.660 Before the pandemic, he was at the office every day, sometimes working 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
01:28:24.400 He now lives in Phoenix, Arizona.
01:28:26.320 As of June, he told me, I have never been to Phoenix.
01:28:30.940 And then he moved there, and he does all of his meetings on Zoom.
01:28:34.680 I was talking to a book editor who's been out of the city since early March.
01:28:37.620 We've all been working fine.
01:28:38.700 I'm not sure why we would ever need to go back to the office again.
01:28:41.960 One friend of mine, Derek Halpern, was convinced he'd stay.
01:28:45.820 He put up a Facebook post the other day saying he might be changing his mind.
01:28:49.640 Derek wrote,
01:28:50.140 In the last week, I've watched a homeless person lose his mind and start attacking random pedestrians,
01:28:55.840 including spitting on, throwing stuff at, and swatting.
01:28:59.340 I've seen several single parents with a child asking for money for food.
01:29:04.500 And then when somebody gave them food, they tossed the food right back at them.
01:29:08.660 I watched a man yell racist slurs every single race of people while charging,
01:29:13.660 then stopping before going too far.
01:29:16.600 And worse.
01:29:17.980 I've been living in New York City for 10 years.
01:29:19.980 It has definitely gotten worse, and there is no end in sight.
01:29:24.360 My favorite park is Madison Square Park.
01:29:26.600 About a month ago, a 19-year-old girl was shot and killed across the street.
01:29:31.100 I don't think I have an answer, but what I do think is clear.
01:29:34.260 It's time to move out of New York City.
01:29:36.860 And I'm not the only one who feels this way either.
01:29:38.960 In my building alone, the rent has plummeted by 30%.
01:29:42.260 More people are moving away than ever.
01:29:44.800 So, it's not goodbye yet, but a long-life New Yorker is thinking about it, end quote.
01:29:51.980 I pick his post out, but I could have picked dozens of others.
01:29:55.800 People say New York City has been through a lot worse, and it always comes back.
01:29:59.180 No and no.
01:30:00.580 First, when has New York City been through worse?
01:30:03.720 Even in the 1970s and through the 80s, when New York City was going bankrupt,
01:30:08.160 even when it was the crime capital of the U.S. or close to it,
01:30:11.560 it was still the capital of business world, meaning it was the primary place
01:30:16.360 young people would go to build wealth and find opportunity.
01:30:19.920 It was culturally on top of its game, home to artists, theater, media, advertising, publishing.
01:30:26.040 It was probably the food capital of the U.S.
01:30:29.880 New York City has never been locked down for five months.
01:30:33.940 Not in any pandemic, any war, financial crisis, never.
01:30:38.460 In the midst of the polio epidemic, when little kids, including my mother,
01:30:44.020 were going paralyzed or dying, New York City didn't go through this.
01:30:49.780 This is not to say what should or should not have been done.
01:30:52.960 That part is over, but now we have to deal with what is.
01:30:57.220 In early March, many people, not me, left New York when they felt it would provide safety
01:31:01.680 from the virus, and they no longer needed to go to work, and all the restaurants were closed,
01:31:05.600 and people figured, I'll go out for a month or two and come back.
01:31:09.000 But they're still gone.
01:31:10.720 Then, in June, during rioting and looting, a second wave of New Yorkers, this time me, left.
01:31:16.840 I have kids.
01:31:18.120 Nothing wrong with protests, but I was nervous when I saw videos of rioters after curfew
01:31:23.360 trying to break into my building.
01:31:25.500 Many people left temporarily, but there were people leaving permanently.
01:31:28.760 Friends of mine moved to Nashville, Miami, Austin, Denver, Salt Lake, Austin, Dallas.
01:31:35.520 Now a third wave of people are leaving, but they might be too late.
01:31:39.700 Prices are down 30% to 50% on both rentals and sales, no matter what real estate agents
01:31:46.220 tell you.
01:31:47.200 And rentals are soaring in the second and third tier cities.
01:31:51.560 I can tell you this from first-hand experience.
01:31:53.580 If you are moving to some place like Idaho or Wyoming, I have family in both, and they
01:32:02.400 are saying that right now, the real estate, you put your house up, it will sell sight unseen.
01:32:09.580 Here in Dallas, somebody, some real estate agent I talked to said they closed their second
01:32:15.460 Zoom or Skype home, that people are moving so fast that people are just saying, just show
01:32:24.440 it to me, just walk through it with me on your phone.
01:32:27.620 The real estate agent does, and they're like, good, I'll take it.
01:32:31.020 That's crazy.
01:32:32.780 That is crazy.
01:32:36.600 I'm temporarily, although maybe permanently, in South Florida now.
01:32:41.280 I also got my place sight unseen.
01:32:43.420 Robin was looking at listings around Miami, and then she saw an area we had never been
01:32:48.100 to before.
01:32:49.220 We found three houses we liked.
01:32:51.120 She called the first real estate agent, place number one, just rented that morning, 50% higher
01:32:55.580 than the asking price.
01:32:57.060 Place number two, also rented to New Yorkers.
01:33:00.220 Place number three, available.
01:33:02.080 We'll take it, we said.
01:33:04.440 The first time we physically saw it was when we flew down and moved in.
01:33:08.560 This is temporary, right?
01:33:09.880 I confirmed with Robin.
01:33:10.960 But I don't know, I'm starting to like the sun a little bit.
01:33:14.300 I mean, when it's behind the shades, and I'm in air conditioning.
01:33:18.500 But let's move on for a second.
01:33:20.840 Business, businesses are remote, and they aren't returning to the office.
01:33:25.380 And it's a death spiral.
01:33:27.480 The longer offices remain empty, the longer they'll remain empty.
01:33:31.380 In 2005, a hedge fund manager was visiting my office and said, in Manhattan, you practically
01:33:36.780 trip over opportunities in the street.
01:33:39.540 But now the streets are empty.
01:33:42.200 I co-own a comedy club, Stand Up New York, 78th and Broadway.
01:33:45.680 I'm very proud of the club, grateful for my fellow owners and my manager.
01:33:49.620 It's a great club.
01:33:50.480 We've been around since 86.
01:33:52.100 Before then, it was a theater.
01:33:54.020 One time, Henry Winkler stopped by to come on my podcast, and he was the one who told me
01:33:58.320 it had been a theater.
01:33:59.560 He said, I grew up two doors down from here, used to perform there as a kid.
01:34:02.460 Then I went out to L.A. to be the Fonz, and now I'm back here full circle to be on your podcast.
01:34:07.720 This place has history.
01:34:09.440 Things like that happen in New York.
01:34:13.100 We had a show in May.
01:34:15.080 It was an outdoor show.
01:34:16.220 Everybody social distanced, but we were shut down by the police.
01:34:20.480 I guess we were super spreading humor during a very serious time.
01:34:24.440 The club is doing something fun.
01:34:26.260 We're doing shows outside in the park.
01:34:27.880 It's a great idea.
01:34:29.720 In time like this, businesses need to give to the community and not complain.
01:34:34.240 Broadway is closed until at least spring.
01:34:36.640 Lincoln Center is closed.
01:34:37.960 All the museums are closed.
01:34:39.980 Forget about the tens of thousands of jobs lost in those cultural centers.
01:34:43.660 Forget even about the millions of dollars of tourist and tourist-generated revenues lost
01:34:47.880 by the closing of those centers.
01:34:49.600 There are thousands of performers, producers, artists, the entire ecosystem of art, theater,
01:34:54.700 production, curation that surrounds just those cultural centers.
01:34:59.160 People who have worked all their lives for the right to perform even once on Broadway, whose
01:35:03.660 lives and careers are now on hold.
01:35:05.460 I get it.
01:35:06.180 There was a pandemic.
01:35:06.960 But the question is, what happens now?
01:35:10.700 What happens next?
01:35:12.520 And given the uncertainty, since there is no known answer, and given the fact that people, cities, economies loathe uncertainty,
01:35:19.420 we don't know the answer.
01:35:21.280 And that's a bad thing for New York City.
01:35:23.580 Right now, Broadway is closed until at least early 2021.
01:35:27.240 But is that true?
01:35:30.660 We don't know.
01:35:31.940 And what does it mean?
01:35:33.460 Will we only have 25% capacities?
01:35:36.200 Broadway shows can't survive on that.
01:35:38.780 Hot dog stands outside of Lincoln Center and outside on the streets.
01:35:42.640 Finished.
01:35:43.460 My favorite restaurant.
01:35:44.600 Closed for good.
01:35:46.860 Commercial real estate.
01:35:48.220 If building owners and landlords lose their prime tenants, storefronts, the bottom floor of
01:35:52.860 the offices, the well-to-do office top floors, they go, too.
01:35:57.240 And they'll go out of business.
01:35:58.680 And what happens when they go out of business?
01:36:01.180 Actually, nothing.
01:36:02.300 And that's the bad news.
01:36:04.100 People who would have rented, bought, and say, wow, everybody is saying New York City is heading
01:36:08.800 back to the 1970s, and the prices might be 50% lower than they were a year ago.
01:36:13.860 But better safe than sorry.
01:36:16.040 I think I'll wait.
01:36:17.700 Then everyone waiting.
01:36:18.980 Prices go down.
01:36:20.040 So people see prices go down and say, good thing I waited.
01:36:22.840 But what happens if I wait even more?
01:36:25.100 This is called a deflationary spiral.
01:36:27.460 People wait.
01:36:28.200 Prices go down.
01:36:29.260 Nobody wins.
01:36:30.640 Because the landlords or owners go broke and less money gets spent in the city.
01:36:34.840 Nobody moves in.
01:36:35.940 No motion in the market.
01:36:37.040 And people already owning in the area can afford to hang on, have to wait longer to return to
01:36:43.620 their restaurants, their services that they were used to.
01:36:46.420 Will prices go down enough that everyone buys?
01:36:49.740 Maybe.
01:36:50.700 Maybe not.
01:36:51.900 There are also 600,000 college students spread out through New York City, from Columbia to
01:36:56.660 Fordham to St. John's.
01:36:58.720 Will they require remote learning?
01:37:00.800 Will kids even be on the campus?
01:37:03.640 Yeah, but New York City always comes back.
01:37:05.960 I live three blocks from Ground Zero and 9-11.
01:37:08.760 Downtown, where I lived, was destroyed.
01:37:10.840 But it came roaring back within two years.
01:37:13.320 And in 2008 and 9, much suffering during the Great Recession.
01:37:16.180 Much again, hardship, but things came roaring back.
01:37:19.220 But this time, it is different.
01:37:21.640 You're never supposed to say this, but this time, it's true.
01:37:25.080 If you believe this time is no different, that New York City is resilient, I hope you're
01:37:29.440 right.
01:37:30.100 I don't benefit at all for saying this.
01:37:32.200 I love New York.
01:37:33.100 I was born there.
01:37:33.940 I lived there forever.
01:37:34.800 I still live there.
01:37:35.700 I love everything about New York City.
01:37:37.680 I want 2019 back.
01:37:39.380 But this time, it is different.
01:37:43.020 The difference is bandwidth.
01:37:44.800 We now have meetings on Zoom, 20 megabytes per second.
01:37:50.360 That's more than enough for high-quality video.
01:37:52.480 Before, we couldn't remotely work.
01:37:54.540 Now we can.
01:37:56.200 We're officially A-B, after bandwidth.
01:38:00.420 And for the entire history of New York City until now, we were before bandwidth.
01:38:05.460 It goes on, and I highly recommend that you listen to it, or you watch it, or read it.
01:38:13.780 It's from James Alchor, and he is a great, great podcaster.
01:38:18.960 This particular piece was written for LinkedIn, and it is, New York City is dead forever, and
01:38:25.400 here's why.
01:38:26.020 It is a very sad thing.
01:38:29.340 New York is, the problem with New York is, it is a love-hate relationship with everyone
01:38:35.520 who lives there.
01:38:36.920 You absolutely hate it because it's the worst of the worst, and it's the most expensive,
01:38:42.940 and everything else.
01:38:43.680 But you love it because there is truly no other city on earth like it.
01:38:49.480 There was a video posted.
01:38:50.880 Can we play this video?
01:38:51.780 There was a video posted just the other day about New York City, and it shows the empty
01:38:59.920 streets of New York City, and it is Fifth Avenue, block after block after block.
01:39:07.200 Everything is boarded closed, not because of COVID, but because of riots and looting.
01:39:14.920 It's now a very dangerous city, and nothing is going on.
01:39:19.940 There are no shops to go into, no museums, no shows.
01:39:24.420 You're just trapped in New York City.
01:39:27.740 It is not a good situation.
01:39:30.780 And unfortunately, that's going to happen to a lot of our cities.
01:39:38.220 More in just a second.
01:39:39.680 First, we want to thank our sponsor.
01:39:45.540 Our sponsor is Goldline.
01:39:47.220 The Federal Reserve has absolutely nothing but our best interest in mind.
01:39:51.600 I mean, I completely trust them.
01:39:53.080 Don't you?
01:39:54.620 Yeah.
01:39:55.720 I don't know if you've heard about this or not, but the Federal Reserve is currently working
01:39:59.300 with MIT to hypothetically develop a digital currency for them to play around with.
01:40:05.040 I mean, for them to manage the economy with, I'm really not sure exactly when this is going
01:40:13.840 to happen, but it is going to happen, and it will make things, digital currency will make
01:40:19.300 them able to do things like direct money transfer.
01:40:23.640 How great is that?
01:40:25.140 The Fed will just be able to wire money directly and instantly to Americans without any kind of
01:40:30.220 middleman.
01:40:30.920 This is coming, and I'm going to show you in a few minutes why this is so dangerous and
01:40:36.500 what it actually means.
01:40:38.520 On an unrelated note, by which I mean a very related note, gold continues to rise in value.
01:40:45.320 I'm about to tell you here that Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffett's firm, just spent $700 million
01:40:52.380 buying gold.
01:40:53.960 Why?
01:40:54.500 When the stock market's doing so well.
01:40:56.000 Well, because they know they better hedge their bet, because gold is the last place that
01:41:02.140 everybody goes when everything goes to hell, and it's on its way to hell, gang.
01:41:07.120 Projections over $3,000 an ounce for gold.
01:41:10.680 You need to look to investing a portion of your portfolio into precious metals, gold or silver,
01:41:16.040 and everybody in this audience can afford at least a couple of ounces of silver.
01:41:21.180 Call Goldline.
01:41:21.840 Tell them you want to find out right now about their $5 gold Liberty Coins, which I have
01:41:26.280 already invested in here recently in the last couple of months.
01:41:29.760 Tell them I sent you.
01:41:30.900 Call Goldline now at 866-GOLDLINE.
01:41:33.560 That's 866-GOLDLINE or goldline.com.
01:41:38.000 10 seconds.
01:41:38.600 Station ID.
01:41:39.040 You know, it's that kind of broadcasting that I think is so exciting and so riveting and
01:41:57.020 so well done that that's why I have been inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame this year.
01:42:03.280 I've formally requested a recount on that, but so far, no results.
01:42:10.440 Well, the Russians were involved.
01:42:11.980 They had to be.
01:42:12.760 The Russians were involved.
01:42:14.260 Yeah.
01:42:14.900 So I want to thank you if you voted for me, and I want to thank you to all of the people.
01:42:20.760 You know, the listeners counted for one twenty-third of the vote, and then there were 22 other
01:42:27.940 people on the board that, you know, are in our industry that had to vote, and it was an
01:42:31.560 honor just to be nominated.
01:42:32.720 It really was.
01:42:33.620 And it would have sucked to lose, especially to NPR, but I'm really grateful, and I can't
01:42:39.920 wait until the ceremony in November.
01:42:43.960 All right.
01:42:44.620 I have to tell you about what's happening with the Fed and what's happening with our money.
01:42:57.640 You know, let me start here.
01:43:01.820 The Fed is printing money like it's going out of style now, and they're taking the Federal
01:43:10.900 Reserve is printing the money to buy U.S. Treasuries, and the Fed only keeps Treasury
01:43:17.200 yields sufficient to offset inflation.
01:43:20.020 The rest is retained by the Treasury.
01:43:22.960 The Fed doesn't profit off of the U.S. Treasury purchases.
01:43:26.100 But the idea is that the money pumped into the U.S.
01:43:30.580 government by the Fed won't cause inflation.
01:43:33.320 That's what they think.
01:43:34.700 That is ridiculous.
01:43:36.580 It's ridiculous.
01:43:37.320 But they say it's not because it doesn't enter the real or general economy when the
01:43:43.080 government spends it or gives it away as welfare or reparations.
01:43:47.760 But again, what is it that that or is that money going?
01:43:51.800 Where's that money going?
01:43:52.560 Give it away as welfare to, we would assume, a person.
01:43:56.120 And a person would theoretically spend it on something.
01:43:58.620 Correct.
01:43:59.480 I think that's how that works.
01:44:00.400 Or if they're going to do a stimulus package and they're going to hire a bunch of people
01:44:05.600 to do road construction, where does that money go?
01:44:10.100 Where does that money go?
01:44:11.040 Just fully embrace modern monetary theory here.
01:44:14.120 Exactly right.
01:44:14.800 Without a conversation.
01:44:15.660 Exactly right.
01:44:17.060 And I'm going to explain that and our federal debt at $27 trillion.
01:44:22.540 $27 trillion by the end of 2020.
01:44:28.500 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:44:33.360 Gosh.
01:44:34.580 All right.
01:44:35.280 Let me tell you about our sponsor.
01:44:37.260 And we want to thank all of our sponsors for being so loyal to us and being here.
01:44:41.900 Real estate agents I trust.
01:44:43.880 It's kind of like thanking myself because this is my business.
01:44:46.500 But it is for you to get the right real estate agent for buying or selling a house.
01:44:52.920 And if you're moving to someplace good, from someplace bad, you're going to need somebody
01:44:59.540 who really knows the area.
01:45:01.840 If you're moving to, let's say, Texas, you've got to know that your real estate agent is on
01:45:07.340 it because houses are selling lightning fast.
01:45:11.500 You can't be with somebody who's moonlighting as a real estate agent, et cetera, et cetera.
01:45:15.180 And if you're in a bad place, you're in New York City.
01:45:18.160 You need the best real estate agent to help you get out of that without it being a bloodbath.
01:45:24.540 What I recommend is the free service to you.
01:45:28.440 Real estate agents I trust.
01:45:30.600 The name says it all.
01:45:32.140 These are the people that we have done our homework on six ways to Sunday to make sure
01:45:37.140 that they're the best, in our opinion, in your area.
01:45:39.960 Go there now and work with the best of the best.
01:45:43.340 Realestateagentsitrust.com.
01:45:45.180 Go to blazetv.com slash Glenn.
01:45:47.380 The promo code is Glenn to watch the show of Radio Hall of Famer.
01:45:51.220 Whatever.
01:45:51.760 Glenn Beck.
01:46:02.700 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:46:05.320 I want to talk to you about what our Fed and our Treasury are doing.
01:46:09.500 And it is really, really much worse than you think.
01:46:14.540 And I think you're starting to get a handle on that.
01:46:19.200 We're not coming back.
01:46:20.620 I'm sorry.
01:46:21.980 And I don't mean to be the bearer of bad news here.
01:46:25.440 But I somebody has to tell you the truth.
01:46:30.300 Normal is never coming back.
01:46:32.640 It's never coming back.
01:46:34.660 And or at least it's not for many, many, many years.
01:46:39.500 And I think James Altor was gave a great description of what's happening in New York.
01:46:47.600 It's just not coming back because everything has changed.
01:46:52.600 Part of this is what I talked about.
01:46:55.100 That great tech disruption that was coming.
01:46:58.320 I told you it would be coming in the next five years.
01:47:00.400 And it just came through the coronavirus where people are going to realize, wait a minute, we don't need all these jobs or we don't need to work in these cities.
01:47:09.160 And it would be a giant disruption to the system and people we would have.
01:47:13.500 Remember, I said 30 to 50 percent unemployment was coming in the next five years.
01:47:20.780 Well, we're at 11 percent, but they were predicting 35 percent.
01:47:25.680 So the disruption is happening now.
01:47:28.480 But what's about to come is much worse than what we've already seen, because the medicine is far worse than the disease.
01:47:39.780 The CBO has now estimated that in 2018, the interest costs on our debt would consume all projected discretionary spending in dollars in a projected budget by 2026.
01:47:56.980 So this is what the CBO said in 2018, that by 2026, we would have no money in our budget except for the interest on the debt.
01:48:06.440 As of now, that number now is 2024, but that number could come down if inflation heats up and interest rates spike up.
01:48:20.140 So as long as interest rates stay the way they are and inflation stays the way it is, we have until 2024.
01:48:26.000 Interest cost on the debt, even at hyper low interest rates that we're seeing right now, is just shy of six hundred billion dollars.
01:48:38.060 And that was in 2019 when the debt was 22 trillion.
01:48:42.160 By the end of this year, the federal debt will be around 27 trillion.
01:48:47.720 And current projections on interest costs will be 720 billion, so almost a trillion dollars just in interest, even including the Fed discount on interest costs.
01:49:00.300 That's what you're looking at.
01:49:02.100 The total federal tax revenue is two trillion dollars.
01:49:05.600 So the cost to service just the debt will consume 40 percent of income tax dollars collected.
01:49:12.500 Next year.
01:49:13.540 In 1971, that cost to service the debt was 2 percent.
01:49:21.020 It's now going to be 40 next year.
01:49:23.880 That's assuming everything goes well.
01:49:26.460 Interest costs then were 5 percent.
01:49:29.140 Today, the government gets to borrow from the Fed at 1.5 percent cost.
01:49:34.440 But the cost to service is still consuming ever more of our federal budget.
01:49:39.300 We are now doing modern monetary theory, with the exception that the Fed is a private country company.
01:49:50.140 They are not issuing sovereign currency.
01:49:54.620 It's the Fed.
01:49:56.200 So the losses at the Fed could actually put the Fed out of business.
01:50:01.340 The underlying shareholders, these five big banks.
01:50:04.700 Remember, the ones we've been bailing out.
01:50:06.560 That's the Fed.
01:50:08.900 And so we've been bailing them out and they claim they're bailing us out.
01:50:13.680 If we issued a sovereign currency from the government, they could effectively print any amount of money they wished forever, with the resulting hyperinflation having the same effect as bankruptcy, because the purchasing power of the bills they'd be printing would end up having no real value to them.
01:50:32.320 And they'd just be turned back into, you know, starting fires or toilet paper or making blue jeans.
01:50:38.440 There's an article out now in Forbes that you should read, and it is correct.
01:50:45.220 If it is truly all of it correct, the federal debt will reach $78 billion, $78 billion by 2028.
01:50:58.560 Sorry, $78 trillion.
01:51:05.240 I was going to say, that's great news, $78 billion.
01:51:07.660 Sorry, $78 trillion.
01:51:09.160 The cost of service, that amount of debt, will be close to the entire federal budget, about $2.8 trillion, just to pay the interest.
01:51:20.980 You want to talk about being a slave?
01:51:23.460 You get nothing from the federal government.
01:51:25.800 There is no opportunity to fix anything in our country, and we all work as hard as we are now just to service the debt.
01:51:38.360 And Wall Street wonders why Warren Buffett just invested $700 million in gold.
01:51:46.040 It's pretty clear when will this be made clear so the average person can actually prepare.
01:51:59.280 On Wednesday, we have a special coming up, but before we go there, I want to go to Jason Buttrill.
01:52:07.780 Jason is our chief researcher.
01:52:10.900 Is he on the line?
01:52:11.620 Is he ready to go?
01:52:12.340 And Jason is here.
01:52:15.260 He's going to give us an update on what happened with the federal government and the investigation into the Russia scandal.
01:52:23.620 We were expecting big news, and it was kind of lackluster, unless you really kind of understand that it looks like he may be working with the government to give bigger names.
01:52:36.980 Jason, welcome to the program.
01:52:38.120 What happened Friday?
01:52:38.840 Thanks, Glenn.
01:52:40.160 Yeah, it does seem kind of lackluster.
01:52:42.940 We'll get to that in a second.
01:52:44.120 But what's crazy lackluster was you really have to take this story back eight months ago when the DOJ inspector general first brought out these significant inaccuracies and omissions, which when you read them, they sounded a lot worse than just inaccuracies and omissions.
01:53:00.840 Correct.
01:53:01.280 One of them was the case of FBI lawyer number two, which we now know is Kevin Clinesmith.
01:53:06.760 He's the one that is pleading guilty to what the second lackluster thing is, providing a false statement.
01:53:14.520 Now, when you go through the case, it's a heck of a lot more than just providing a false statement.
01:53:18.900 What he did was he asked the CIA, he said, hey, you know anything about Carter Page?
01:53:23.160 What's up with this guy?
01:53:24.220 And the CIA said, yeah, he's a good dude.
01:53:26.140 We use him for – he's an asset of ours.
01:53:27.860 He gives us information on Russians, all this stuff.
01:53:30.420 So you've got to imagine the conversation in the background.
01:53:32.440 The FBI's like, wait a minute, no, no, no.
01:53:33.460 We're making the case that he's an agent of Russia, not one of your agents.
01:53:37.720 So what Kevin Clinesmith did was he altered the email that said he's an asset of the CIA to he's not an asset of one of our assets.
01:53:46.680 He changed it.
01:53:47.400 He doctored evidence is what he did.
01:53:50.380 He didn't provide a false statement.
01:53:51.760 He doctored evidence so that they could spy on the Trump campaign.
01:53:55.540 That's what happened.
01:53:56.220 Are you seeing this in the media?
01:53:58.020 I hardly see this at all.
01:53:59.900 They're showing the lackluster headlines.
01:54:03.080 That's all they're showing.
01:54:03.960 This was a big deal eight months ago.
01:54:05.720 It's a huge deal now.
01:54:07.540 So you've got to wonder, why didn't they just indict him eight months ago?
01:54:12.780 Right.
01:54:12.860 And why is this being played down?
01:54:17.500 And why is it just why is it being made?
01:54:20.720 You know, that Barr knows this is a very big deal.
01:54:24.180 So why are they dismissing this?
01:54:26.800 And he's pleading guilty.
01:54:28.540 Do you think that it was a plea and a plea bargain?
01:54:33.920 Absolutely think it was a plea bargain.
01:54:35.340 There's more evidence within the entire indictment that says that Clinesmith provided the real email to multiple people in the FBI.
01:54:46.380 So when you think about that, when you're looking – so right now they haven't dinged him on conspiracy.
01:54:49.960 Now that's big.
01:54:50.540 When you get conspiracy, this is going to blow up.
01:54:52.940 And I think Durham already has it.
01:54:54.260 I really do.
01:54:55.800 Because once he delivered that information to everybody else, then you have multiple people.
01:54:59.840 That's where the conspiracy charge will come in.
01:55:01.580 So there's multiple other people that were involved.
01:55:04.000 They knew the true information, that Carter Page was not an agent of Russia.
01:55:07.740 He was one of our agents.
01:55:09.060 They knew this.
01:55:10.380 Now, how many people will get tangled up in this web?
01:55:13.240 That's why I believe you're getting this lackluster charge right now.
01:55:17.060 They could have dinged him for a lot.
01:55:18.140 They're tampering evidence.
01:55:19.100 That's what this was.
01:55:20.020 Not providing a false statement.
01:55:21.240 So what they're doing now, or what they have been doing, in my opinion, as they have been talking to him, who else is involved?
01:55:26.800 Who did you give this information for?
01:55:28.920 Where did it go from there?
01:55:30.400 Take us down this road.
01:55:31.600 I think all of that will be part of the Durham report.
01:55:34.540 And I think this is just the first casualty in a very, very big –
01:55:38.920 Did you walk away thinking – because you and I have been afraid that only the little guys are going to get nailed.
01:55:44.260 Did you walk away from the charges on Friday thinking, oh, there's a chance this is going to really get some really – it'll get interesting here.
01:55:54.980 Some really big names might go.
01:55:57.060 I've got to be honest with you, Glenn.
01:55:58.380 No, I do not.
01:55:59.360 I think that, again, it's the third-tier people that you talked about in the show not too long ago.
01:56:03.920 It's the people that you never heard of.
01:56:05.760 It's the people like an attorney, Kevin Clinesmith, who's heard of this guy.
01:56:09.620 He'll get dinged.
01:56:10.540 You'll get people like Peter Strzok.
01:56:11.960 You'll get people like that that will start to go down, that crazy Russian guy that the Steele dossier was using that was actually living here.
01:56:21.240 You're not going to see a Susan Rice.
01:56:23.500 You're not going to see a – well, I don't – so I thought that she was actually going to be named VP to help insulate her.
01:56:29.800 Me too.
01:56:30.100 I still think that you won't – but I still think she'll be insulated.
01:56:33.920 They've got to get her in the cabinet.
01:56:35.600 If Biden and Kamala win, then they instantly bring her in, probably Secretary of State.
01:56:40.200 Well, if they win, this is all over.
01:56:44.080 Everybody gets away with it.
01:56:45.840 This is done.
01:56:46.520 Yeah.
01:56:47.220 Thank you very much, Jason.
01:56:48.420 I appreciate it.
01:56:49.900 So the media for now four years has been that Trump worked with the Russians to cheat in the 2016 election.
01:56:56.300 He tried to work with Ukraine later to dig up dirt on Biden so he could cheat in this year's election.
01:57:02.300 That's what that impeachment was all about, and we know all of – we know the truth on that.
01:57:07.760 And if you don't, go back and watch our specials on the election.
01:57:11.920 The overwhelming evidence points to exactly the opposite, that the Democrats were working with Russia and Ukraine to interfere in the 2016 election, and then some.
01:57:22.160 And they first did it by promoting the disinformation in the Steele dossier, which, don't forget, was opposition research paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign.
01:57:33.120 Then there was the DNC contractor, Chalupa, soliciting the Ukrainian embassy for dirt on Donald Trump and Paul Manafort.
01:57:42.740 But now they've got a different tact.
01:57:45.040 They are still saying that they are – that Donald Trump is working with Russia, and Russia is the real threat, not China.
01:57:52.320 China is fine.
01:57:54.620 They're – but they're not only doing that.
01:57:57.260 They have a new game that they're playing.
01:58:05.260 First, they're pushing mail-in ballots as the only way to vote this November.
01:58:09.960 The only way you can vote is through these mail-in ballots.
01:58:12.420 Second, they're now pushing a narrative that Donald Trump is trying to kill off the U.S. Postal Service so he can sabotage America's mail-in votes and steal the election.
01:58:23.380 The Democrats and the media insist there are zero problems with voting by mail.
01:58:31.160 That is completely false, and all of us know it.
01:58:34.900 But on Wednesday night, I'm going to show you the problems and the fraud that comes with universal mail-in voting, and why Democrats are pushing this so hard.
01:58:45.960 It's a preview of the November nightmare that all of this could lead to.
01:58:50.920 And I just want to give you a taste of the supposedly non-existent fraud that Democrats and the media don't want you to know about.
01:58:57.260 When the House Democrats passed their HEROES Act in May, it included a provision that would allow what's called ballot harvesting.
01:59:08.640 And yes, it's as bad as it sounds, where essentially paid activists can canvas neighborhoods to collect people's mail-in ballots.
01:59:18.420 It already happened in Florida in 2016 in Palm Beach.
01:59:23.740 Two Democrats running for office went door-to-door themselves, helping people fill out their ballots and then collect them.
01:59:32.900 Be sure there's no fraud at all with voting by mail.
01:59:38.560 That's Wednesday's special, only on the Glenn Beck television program on BlazeTV.com.
01:59:48.420 Good, good, good, good.
02:00:18.420 Zero time.
02:00:19.940 Zero time.
02:00:21.800 Partner with businesses that are partnering with you on the things you care deeply about.
02:00:29.360 To support things like the next generation of freedom-loving Americans.
02:00:34.400 To make sure that they have enough information, that their schools are not taken over, that the First Amendment isn't lost, the Second Amendment isn't lost.
02:00:45.800 Patriot Mobile right now is running a school day's promotion.
02:00:49.140 Until September 12th, you can choose either a free phone or a free month of service when you switch to America's only conservative cell phone carrier.
02:00:58.880 It's Patriot Mobile.
02:01:01.260 And instead of charging you hidden fees, Patriot Mobile is going to donate a portion of your bill to students for life.
02:01:08.200 You're not going to get the same runaround.
02:01:11.720 You're not going to get the same hidden bills and taxes and everything else.
02:01:17.660 You're just going to get the same reliable service, nationwide service.
02:01:21.160 But you're going to get the support from a company that actually believes in the same thing.
02:01:26.760 And their support service is off the charts.
02:01:29.740 Just rated number one.
02:01:30.920 And I don't remember by who, but just rated number one as best service in cell phone companies.
02:01:36.900 Switching is easy.
02:01:38.380 You can bring your own phone or get a new one.

02:02:13.240 Executive producer Steve Regeer is also with us.
02:02:16.420 Yeah, really concerned.
02:02:17.420 We've been talking a lot about it today, about voter fraud and the possibilities of mass voter fraud.
02:02:23.060 We've seen it happen with the Radio Hall of Fame vote that just went down,
02:02:26.440 where obviously Glenn Beck couldn't have possibly won, but he was announced as the winner.
02:02:31.500 It seems impossible to me.
02:02:33.400 We're looking into it.
02:02:34.360 I've been using Donald Trump as a scapegoat this whole time.

02:02:42.960 They're all blaming it as, oh, it's the elections in November.
02:02:45.860 No, the real elections for November, Radio Hall of Fame.
02:02:50.140 And I am pleased to announce that I was nominated and I will be inducted this November.
