The Glenn Beck Program - War Drums Drumming？｜ Guest： Bill O'Reilly ｜ 6⧸21⧸19

00:00:00.000 I'm Hillary, that's your 4-Minute Buzz, and now here's Glenn and Stu with the start of our show this morning.

00:00:05.080 Thank you so much, Hillary. Welcome to the program. We're so glad that you're here. Hello, Stu.

00:00:10.040 Mr. Beck, how are you?

00:00:10.680 I want to talk a little bit about Relief Factor, and you might need some pain medication when we finish talking about what's happening with RAN.

00:00:19.280 Relief Factor can help you out with your pain situation. It has helped me for 18 months plus.

00:00:25.480 It's 1-800-500-8384. I've been taking this for a while now, and my pain has dramatically reduced.

00:00:35.520 I know several people on the staff also take it. It's $19.95 to try the quick start. Just try it out.

00:00:42.720 Try it out for three weeks. If it doesn't work, yes, you are out $20.

00:00:46.680 But 70% of the people who try it reorder for another batch month after month after month because it does work.

00:00:56.140 So get your life back. Just try Relief Factor. ReliefFactor.com. Do that now. ReliefFactor.com.

00:01:02.800 Or call 800-500-8384. ReliefFactor.com.

00:01:07.860 All right. Today's show, we're going to talk a little bit about RAN, war, and Bill O'Reilly's coming up.

00:01:12.800 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:30.200 All right. It was kind of a confusing 24 hours here with the Trump administration and with the administration or the regime in Iran.

00:01:43.320 What is going on? Well, we'll try to make heads or tails of it.

00:01:47.760 Last night, we had orders to strike Iran. We had planes already in the air. 1.00

00:01:55.460 We had our military ships already positioned.

00:01:59.960 And at the last minute, it was called off for some reason.

00:02:02.540 The White House won't respond why.

00:02:04.680 But the president had given the go order and then rescinded it.

00:02:08.780 This is significant news.

00:02:11.760 And we have to decide, wait a minute, wait a minute.

00:02:14.760 What's going on? Is this worth it?

00:02:17.880 Who's right? Because you listen to the press.

00:02:23.280 I don't think you're any closer to the truth.

00:02:25.860 So let's start at the beginning.

00:02:27.500 What's really going on with Iran?

00:02:29.880 We begin there in one minute.

00:02:32.420 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:34.440 Okay, I want to tell you a little bit about our cruise that we're taking.

00:02:41.940 Bill O'Reilly is going to be joining us in about an hour.

00:02:43.760 And then a year from now, in spring 2020, he's going to be joining us again.

00:02:47.100 Except this time, he's going to be joining us, I think, in Croatia and Israel.

00:02:51.880 It's going to be a remarkable cruise.

00:02:53.900 And we would love for you to attend.

00:02:56.580 It's our cruise through history.

00:02:58.720 And you can find out all about it if you just go to comesailaway.com.

00:03:02.840 If you go to that address, you're going to find out all about this amazing cruise.

00:03:07.760 It's going to be in Venice, Athens.

00:03:11.280 It's going to be in Croatia and the Holy Land. 1.00

00:03:15.620 You're going to walk where Jesus walked.

00:03:18.520 You can walk.

00:03:20.020 You know, I grew up Catholic.

00:03:21.680 You can walk the 12 stations of the cross.

00:03:23.680 It is amazing when you see this come to life.

00:03:27.540 And we're going to bring it all to life with you, with historians that are going to be joining us.

00:03:31.300 You'll be able to take tours.

00:03:32.740 And we're going to have, you know, conversations about history and how we got to where we are as humans and the role that Europe and the Middle East played in the development of the United States of America.

00:03:46.720 It's going to be great.

00:03:47.640 Plus, there's a pool.

00:03:48.380 There's a bar.

00:03:48.920 So you can, you know, you don't have to listen to us blowhards all the time. 0.82

00:03:52.380 Just go and have a great time.

00:03:54.580 Comesailaway.com.

00:03:55.640 Go there now.

00:03:56.680 Comesailaway.com.

00:03:58.160 So last night.

00:04:26.000 I wake up and I look at the news and I see that the president has authorized a strike on Iran and that we had dispatched, excuse me, military.

00:04:42.500 Um, and we had already, uh, shot planes off and they were on their way and I don't know what their target was.

00:04:52.060 I would imagine their nuclear facilities, et cetera, et cetera.

00:04:54.680 Uh, and we had our ships positioned, uh, also to attack.

00:04:59.880 Now he gave the go order.

00:05:02.080 Now, when we found out about it is when the go order then was rescinded.

00:05:08.700 Now I'm trying to remember, Stu, have you ever seen a, a go order rescinded before in your lifetime?

00:05:15.340 Uh, usually if I'm sure there have been some, but, uh, they're not, uh, widely reported the next day in particular, uh, maybe you find that out in a store in a history book, right?

00:05:27.100 Like 10 years later with reviewing what went on.

00:05:29.740 I don't think I can ever remember seeing something where the next day kind of in real time and the night of that this was, was sort of reversed, which makes me wonder, uh, is this exactly what Donald Trump wants them to think happened?

00:05:44.800 Right? Like, is this exactly the type of thing where you're saying Trump wants to say, look, he's, he's, he's warning Iran.

00:05:54.700 Look, we were about to do this and that's how close you are to crossing this line.

00:05:59.620 I'll give you one more chance.

00:06:01.700 I wonder if that was true.

00:06:04.080 Yeah. Now there's a couple of, there's a couple of ways to look at this and I want to take this all apart this hour.

00:06:09.340 And I want to, I just want to take you through some critical thinking on this because, you know, if you listen to the press, I listened to the daily this morning from the New York times.

00:06:18.020 I'm Michael Barbaro.

00:06:19.480 And this is the daily.

00:06:23.220 Hi, I'm your host.

00:06:24.860 And this is the way you're supposed to talk on shows like this.

00:06:30.340 Uh, so I listened.

00:06:31.360 And if you're listening to the New York times, you're listening to the, the, uh, the, the left, you're hearing the story that Donald Trump is a warmonger.

00:06:39.340 And the people in his administration and the president had just been itching for a fight.

00:06:44.140 Donald Trump is not a warmonger.

00:06:47.720 Okay.

00:06:48.160 Let's be really clear on that.

00:06:49.800 There is no way that you can look at Donald Trump and say, yep, he's a warmonger.

00:06:55.580 Where is the record of him warmongering?

00:06:58.960 He has been against every action the United States has taken.

00:07:03.100 I think in the last 20 years, I think, I think he may have been for the initials.

00:07:09.340 The initial strike in, uh, in, uh, Afghanistan.

00:07:13.240 But after that, he wasn't for any of that.

00:07:16.080 He was one of the most outspoken people about you're destabilizing the Middle East. 1.00

00:07:20.740 This is stupid. 1.00

00:07:22.060 This is bad. 1.00

00:07:23.060 What are we doing?

00:07:24.100 Time to end the war. 0.89

00:07:25.240 Bring the guys home.

00:07:26.520 So let's be very clear.

00:07:29.140 Donald Trump is not itching for a fight.

00:07:32.480 Donald Trump is not a warmonger.

00:07:34.660 Now you could say that the people around Donald Trump, well, they're warmongers.

00:07:41.200 I'm Michael Barbaro.

00:07:42.700 And I want to talk to you about warmongering.

00:07:46.280 Well, that has to, you have to take a very cynical view of people like, uh, John Bolton.

00:07:51.780 John Bolton, who I would consider a friend, uh, John Bolton, who is a guy who I have talked

00:07:58.620 to many, many, many, many, many times.

00:08:01.220 I agree with him probably 90% of the time, full disclosure, because I think he is a truth

00:08:08.280 teller. 0.97

00:08:09.000 He is a guy who doesn't put up with garbage. 0.99

00:08:12.320 He's very much Ronald Reagan. 0.99

00:08:15.200 They're lying to you.

00:08:16.840 Trust, but verify.

00:08:18.300 Let's not be dopes here.

00:08:20.920 Now, 20 years ago, when John Bolton and I first started talking, you could say that he

00:08:26.480 might have been more warmongering when it came to Iran than he is right now, because just

00:08:33.940 like North Korea, if they get the bomb, they are going to be on the world stage, whether

00:08:41.260 you like it or not.

00:08:42.380 And is the minute they have that, they will do exactly what North Korea is doing. 0.80

00:08:48.560 And that is whatever the hell they want.

00:08:52.000 Now, the Obama administration emboldened them.

00:08:57.380 Trump knew that this was a bad deal.

00:09:00.960 So he rejected that deal, pulled it off the table, because that's the only way that you

00:09:07.320 can stop Iran, you either have to do military strikes and hope you don't destabilize the 0.75

00:09:15.060 entire Middle East all over again. 0.84

00:09:18.740 You either strike and take them out and have regime change through a military action, which

00:09:27.740 I think we've had 20 years now of going, that doesn't always work out so well.

00:09:30.840 Or you encourage and you kind of do what Ronald Reagan did with the Pope and Margaret Thatcher.

00:09:38.880 Now, let's just let's go through this.

00:09:42.200 These were two attacks on two tankers.

00:09:47.000 That's what happened.

00:09:48.040 Oil tankers were coming out into the Straits right there by Iran, and they're coming out.

00:09:53.680 They're two tankers from two separate countries.

00:09:59.760 Do you remember which ones they were, Stu?

00:10:02.160 They were they were not enemies of ours.

00:10:06.260 And this straight.

00:10:08.680 Can you just look up where the tankers come from?

00:10:10.780 Wasn't it Saudi Arabia and Japan?

00:10:13.760 Wasn't it?

00:10:15.280 Was it Japan?

00:10:16.640 It could be just looking up just to make sure.

00:10:18.740 But they're they're they're they're Western.

00:10:22.360 I know this.

00:10:23.440 I mean, they do business with the West.

00:10:25.540 So if it's Saudi Arabia, it's not a Western country, but they do business.

00:10:31.920 Providing us oil and providing Europe oil.

00:10:35.840 So now what would be the motivation for the United States to blow up two tankers?

00:10:42.360 To pin it on Iran? 0.91

00:10:44.760 Wow, that seems pretty dicey, because if we got caught, I don't think that would work out well.

00:10:52.660 And in today's world, you generally get caught.

00:10:57.460 It would be an enormous conspiracy.

00:11:00.440 So New York Times and anybody else that wants to go down that maybe we were involved, which I haven't heard yet.

00:11:08.280 But it is implied, I think, in reporting.

00:11:12.720 This is kind of suspicious.

00:11:14.820 OK, all right.

00:11:16.460 I'll take you at that.

00:11:17.680 Now, the Pentagon says that they have the evidence.

00:11:23.240 They can show it.

00:11:24.920 They can show everything about it.

00:11:26.860 Now, maybe they can.

00:11:28.440 Maybe they can't.

00:11:29.280 But let's just think logically, what would our motivation be?

00:11:34.500 You would have to think, well, the United States is going to blow up the tankers.

00:11:39.040 So that will hurt our allies because that will disrupt oil coming.

00:11:44.100 Now, we've got lots of oil, so we could be fine.

00:11:46.560 But Europe's not.

00:11:47.600 Now, Donald Trump is a capitalist.

00:11:51.060 He believes in making money.

00:11:53.400 He doesn't want to disrupt oil because that could collapse the economy of the United States if the economy of Europe also collapses.

00:12:06.460 Boy, that's quite a stretch. 0.98

00:12:08.260 I have to think this guy and those around him are absolute madmen. 0.97

00:12:13.800 That there's no logic going on. 0.96

00:12:17.500 Here's a group of people that say they're for the free market,

00:12:20.080 but they're going to set up Iran by blowing up two tankers that will hurt Europe, 0.81

00:12:27.020 especially if there's a war.

00:12:30.220 How's that going to work out for his election?

00:12:33.160 Now, what is the motivation of Iran? 0.57

00:12:38.180 Well, Iran is being squeezed hard by the United States, and they're collapsing.

00:12:43.020 Now, if you wanted to do the Ronald Reagan, Pope, Margaret Thatcher thing,

00:12:49.460 you need a pope and Margaret Thatcher to show up. 0.63

00:12:54.300 Can anyone point to anyone in Europe that has a spine to stand against the leading country of terrorism in Europe?

00:13:03.200 Do you find a Thatcher?

00:13:04.780 Do you find a pope?

00:13:06.880 For this to be effective, you have to get Europe off of the fence.

00:13:12.440 Ah, Mr. Beck, that's why the United States is doing it. 0.88

00:13:16.720 Yes, but again, you have to think that the people in our Pentagon and on our side are absolute madmen.

00:13:24.720 I'm not willing to go there.

00:13:26.460 I'm willing to be suspicious.

00:13:29.280 I'm willing to say, well, let's look at the evidence.

00:13:31.560 But I'm not willing to say that the people in our Pentagon,

00:13:34.560 then the White House and the president is so warmongering that he would do this.

00:13:39.720 Because it just doesn't, it won't work.

00:13:43.220 It would not work.

00:13:46.740 They need to send a message to Europe.

00:13:50.920 We have you by the short hairs.

00:13:54.460 We have you right where we want you.

00:13:57.180 If you stand with them, we can disrupt your economy and your oil. 0.84

00:14:03.660 That's why Europe didn't come out and say, no, Iran didn't do it.

00:14:07.860 It's why nobody in Europe came out and said, yes, Iran did do it. 0.50

00:14:12.200 What did they say?

00:14:13.320 France and Germany came out and said, well, I think we should proceed with caution here.

00:14:17.440 I'm not really sure if this is, you know, enough time to be able to really analyze if it was them.

00:14:24.580 They didn't say it wasn't.

00:14:26.440 They didn't say it was.

00:14:28.060 Now, the press will say, well, see, this is how much trust is lost.

00:14:32.300 No, that's not how much trust is lost.

00:14:34.740 They know in Germany and in France that they are surrounded by people who are like-minded in their faith,

00:14:44.520 who are terrorists, who would like to disrupt France and Germany.

00:14:51.920 And they know any war with Iran will not go well internally.

00:14:59.400 They also know any war with Iran, it will disrupt their economy.

00:15:05.180 So what you have here is a bunch of people without a spine,

00:15:08.920 or you could look at it positively and say, it's just a bunch of pragmatists.

00:15:14.180 This won't work out well for us.

00:15:16.300 So we're just going to play it here on the side.

00:15:18.460 That is what Iran does not want to happen.

00:15:23.160 The United States does not want this to happen either.

00:15:27.180 Pick a side.

00:15:28.940 There is no Margaret Thatcher and there is no Pope.

00:15:32.600 But there appears to be a Reagan.

00:15:35.460 Now, this Reagan has been saying, well, look at, you know, there's an evil regime.

00:15:43.180 It's an evil regime.

00:15:44.560 Yes, that when something happened, they blew our drone out of the sky two days ago.

00:15:50.860 What was the president's response?

00:15:54.620 Well, I'm going to let you hear that warmonger in 60 seconds.

00:15:58.940 Housing markets on fire all across America.

00:16:13.520 Interest rates are falling.

00:16:14.880 It's a great time to sell your home right now.

00:16:17.560 And if you want to sell or buy, the competition is going to be fierce.

00:16:21.340 And that's why you need a great real estate agent.

00:16:24.320 You need somebody who is there to help you.

00:16:26.360 If you're going to buy a house, you could be 10th in the line to buy that house.

00:16:32.220 Do you have a real estate agent that knows how to work the system, how to make the right

00:16:37.780 offer to make sure that you get the house?

00:16:40.560 There was a girl I found out about in, I think she was in Texas.

00:16:43.560 She was a client of realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:16:46.420 And she wrote to us and said, hey, I'm buying a house and it's tough market in Texas.

00:16:53.280 So real estate agents I trust for free just, you know, sent her the real estate agent because

00:16:57.840 that's what we do.

00:16:59.320 We found out afterwards that she literally was 10th in line for this house.

00:17:03.680 The real estate agent knew exactly the sweet number and exactly how to do it.

00:17:09.100 So she wasn't wrapped up in case the economy would fall apart.

00:17:12.600 She's not in a loan that she can't afford.

00:17:16.160 They thought of that part of it.

00:17:18.840 Plus, what are we going to do?

00:17:20.900 How are we going to come in with our offer?

00:17:22.680 Because we know others are going to be offering and 10 other people offered on this house and

00:17:26.540 she was the one that got it.

00:17:28.100 That's the right real estate agent.

00:17:29.980 And that's what realestateagentsitrust.com does for you.

00:17:33.980 It's a free service, realestateagentsitrust.com, realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:17:42.140 10 seconds, station ID.

00:17:55.480 So Glenn, we have the countries of origin here for these ships.

00:17:58.560 There's been actually a total of six attacks kind of going back here.

00:18:02.520 The four countries involved, Japan, Norway, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia were the four victims

00:18:09.700 of these attacks and that have been largely blamed on Iran.

00:18:13.420 Right.

00:18:14.420 And I don't want to call those friends, all of those friends, two are friends and two are

00:18:19.580 frenemies, but they do business with us.

00:18:23.480 You would, in this case, you would call them friends and not friends of Iran. 0.87

00:18:28.420 So the United States would think that it'd have to get away with bombing or destroying tankers

00:18:35.480 of those four countries.

00:18:38.680 Get away with it.

00:18:41.320 Now, that doesn't seem like something that we're itching to do, especially since the president

00:18:49.060 has a longstanding record of let's not destabilize more.

00:18:56.120 All right.

00:18:56.900 So they blow down one of our drones.

00:19:03.180 And what is the president's first response?

00:19:07.040 Listen.

00:19:07.800 Iran made a big mistake. 1.00

00:19:10.560 This drone was in international waters.

00:19:13.480 Clearly, we have it all documented.

00:19:15.080 It's documented scientifically, not just words.

00:19:17.760 And they made a very bad mistake.

00:19:21.240 Okay.

00:19:21.580 How will you respond?

00:19:23.740 You'll find out.

00:19:25.300 Are you willing to find a war with the Russians?

00:19:26.980 You'll find out.

00:19:28.000 You'll find out.

00:19:28.900 I mean, obviously, obviously, obviously, you know, we're not going to be talking too much

00:19:34.680 about it.

00:19:35.360 You're going to find out.

00:19:36.100 They made a very big mistake.

00:19:37.160 Now, he went on in that press conference to talk about how he has a feeling.

00:19:43.900 I have a gut feeling and I could be wrong, but usually I'm right. 0.69

00:19:46.980 Usually I'm right that they just made a mistake, that this was somebody low level that just made

00:19:55.580 a mistake, made the wrong call, blew this out of the sky, freaked out, and it was just

00:20:00.840 a mistake.

00:20:01.240 Now, we know that's not true because we have them screaming Allah Akbar and the

00:20:08.400 administration of Iran coming out and saying, you know, Allah Akbar, look what we've done

00:20:13.300 to the great Satan.

00:20:14.260 So we know that's not true, but the president was giving them an opportunity to say, hey,

00:20:20.820 mistake.

00:20:21.880 Now, is that what a warmonger does?

00:20:25.880 Is that what a warmonger does?

00:20:27.720 So to believe that Donald Trump is doing this because he wants war, what you have to

00:20:36.720 believe is that our president is absolutely out of his mind and a warmonger and just wants 0.98

00:20:45.360 death. 0.95

00:20:45.760 Or if you look at his record, you'd say, okay, he's not, but the people around him are out 0.90

00:20:51.020 of their mind and they just want death. 1.00

00:20:52.880 They want war at any cost and they're so stupid. 1.00

00:20:57.440 They think they can attack the assets of four allies and get away with it. 1.00

00:21:03.620 Or there's another option.

00:21:05.340 The United States is just a Jewish pawn. 1.00

00:21:08.140 Well, that sounds a little like Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders and everybody else, doesn't

00:21:13.400 it?

00:21:13.660 That's a probably a really easy one.

00:21:15.480 If you believe in socialism, yes, it's a Jewish conspiracy. 1.00

00:21:24.140 But why would the president come out and say it's a mistake?

00:21:27.280 Why would the president come out and order a strike and then come back and say, nope, cancel

00:21:33.640 it?

00:21:33.860 I think the most easy thing to believe here is that the president means what he says when

00:21:42.180 he doesn't want to destabilize the Middle East.

00:21:45.200 And this is a way of sending a very, very strong message without actually lobbying a single

00:21:53.840 missile.

00:21:55.260 Isn't this what we should be hoping for?

00:21:57.880 Could this be kind of dramatic strategy here that the president is is coming out and saying,

00:22:08.260 you know what?

00:22:10.420 I got the guys at the Pentagon and they want to do something and I want to do something.

00:22:15.420 Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.

00:22:16.740 Last second.

00:22:17.600 No, I'm not going to do it.

00:22:19.120 I'm not going to do it.

00:22:20.240 Don't make me do this.

00:22:21.540 I'm I'm in your corner because I think you made a mistake.

00:22:24.520 Like, oh, I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow.

00:22:28.620 This is a president who is signaling to our enemies.

00:22:32.560 I got a twitchy eye, but he's also at the same time signaling to you he's not crazy and

00:22:40.440 out of control and has some sort of Iranian bloodlust. 0.90

00:22:45.900 That's what's happening in the Middle East.

00:22:48.640 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:22:52.340 How are you?

00:22:54.520 All right.

00:22:56.200 Let me talk to you a little bit about simply safe. 0.85

00:22:58.700 It's going to make your head explode.

00:23:00.600 Burglars actually were when they were caught, they were asked, you know, why?

00:23:03.680 Why do you do this?

00:23:04.840 And they actually said.

00:23:07.320 We have a right to the nice things in homes that are unprotected.

00:23:11.620 You know, we deserve that stuff because this is an open invitation.

00:23:15.180 If you don't have a burglar alarm, I mean, do you really deserve that?

00:23:18.820 I think it's an open invitation for us to come and take it.

00:23:21.300 That's actually what they said.

00:23:23.100 That's nuts.

00:23:24.040 That's nuts.

00:23:25.140 But that's why maybe we don't hang out with burglars because we don't really understand

00:23:29.160 or see each other eye to eye.

00:23:31.260 Simply safe has an award winning protection for $14.99 a month.

00:23:35.880 That's less than half of what the other guys charge.

00:23:39.040 There are no long term contracts.

00:23:41.000 You'll never be locked into something.

00:23:42.600 You can pay month to month without fear of any kind of financial issues where you're like,

00:23:46.520 I've got to pay this thing.

00:23:47.640 No, you don't.

00:23:48.520 You own it.

00:23:49.240 No contracts, no strings, and great, great protection.

00:24:19.900 Now, that can be hard to recover from.

00:24:21.560 Even so, only one in five have home security.

00:24:24.460 And I think it's mainly because the security companies make it so hard to get security.

00:24:29.080 But SimplySafe is different.

00:25:14.780 So the New York Times just started to report now that the word is, the reason why this

00:25:21.580 strike was called off is because Donald Trump was notified that maybe 150 people could be

00:25:28.500 killed in this strike, as high as 150, and he didn't feel that that was equal to a drone.

00:25:35.200 He thought that was too high of a price, which kind of, again, hurts the left's warmonger kind of story.

00:25:41.320 But everything hurts the left's warmonger story on this.

00:25:45.900 Most importantly, Donald Trump's long lifetime record against destabilizing the Middle East.

00:25:54.280 It is my contention also that that is something that the Pentagon has been against for a very long time.

00:26:00.240 Don't go into Iran. 0.99

00:26:01.520 Don't go into Iran. 0.99

00:26:03.320 It's why I said in 2004, the real target was not Saddam Hussein.

00:26:08.100 The real target was the regime in Iran.

00:26:11.560 We know who Iran is, and the idea was to put freedom on both sides.

00:26:16.960 It didn't work, but to put freedom on both sides and then squeeze Iran from both sides 0.97

00:26:22.820 and be able to pop the head of that snake because you do not want to go in and have a war.

00:26:28.500 So what's really happening?

00:26:34.440 I think that's what's happening.

00:26:36.520 I think the president is just trying to send the message to Iran.

00:26:40.900 I'll go to war, but I really don't want to stop this right now.

00:26:47.940 We brought Pat Gray in to get his opinion, and also I'd love to hear some commentary from Stu on this as well.

00:26:55.340 Yes.

00:26:56.220 Hi, Glenn.

00:26:56.920 I'm kind of fascinated, as you guys mentioned at the beginning of the hour, that we're hearing about this now.

00:27:08.100 That, you know, I can't recall a time where, and maybe there has been one, but I can't remember a time where the next day we heard,

00:27:19.080 yeah, there was going to be a strike yesterday, but they called it off.

00:27:21.860 And so.

00:27:22.380 No, no, no.

00:27:22.720 It wasn't.

00:27:23.140 It was last night that this broke.

00:27:25.640 Yeah.

00:27:26.360 Yeah.

00:27:26.600 I mean, I, it was almost immediate.

00:27:31.680 Crazy.

00:27:32.680 It's strange.

00:27:33.420 I mean, there's so many open questions, I think, with it.

00:27:35.480 I mean, it does definitely, to me, feel like a direct administration leak to say, hey, this is exactly, this is what they want Iran to hear, which is, you are this close to this line.

00:27:47.160 Don't keep crossing it.

00:27:48.240 Our president happens to be the guy who just is giving you a break here, but you better not keep crossing these lines.

00:27:54.200 And I think that is, you know, kind of the foundation of this.

00:27:57.480 But it's interesting, I think, too, in that, you know, there's this sort of two sides of Trump and that, like, Trump obviously wants to portray strength.

00:28:06.040 He, you know, he wants to, he, with many things, he gives the tough talk.

00:28:10.520 He is a guy who wants to show you that he's in control.

00:28:12.920 And if he has to, he'll wipe you off the map.

00:28:15.440 At the same time, you're right, Glenn.

00:28:16.780 I mean, you know, in most conflicts, going back as long as Trump has been in the public eye, he's been on the side of not doing them.

00:28:23.020 Right.

00:28:23.160 I mean, in almost every circumstance, very, very briefly at the beginning of Iraq, he supported it, but then turned very quickly to one of the biggest critics of Iraq.

00:28:31.920 You know, you know, Libya.

00:28:34.380 I mean, even smaller conflicts.

00:28:34.920 Yeah, I think even in that one, he said no first, and then he said yes.

00:28:38.280 And are you talking about when he was on Stern?

00:28:41.520 Yeah, I think that was the first interview he did about the Iraq war.

00:28:44.440 And he said initially that he supported it, but then.

00:28:47.040 Then he wasn't for it.

00:28:48.440 I actually can't remember if he was against it, then for it, then against it again.

00:28:53.240 He does not like these things, though.

00:28:54.760 He doesn't.

00:28:55.560 You know, it's one of the.

00:28:56.160 No, he doesn't.

00:28:56.680 It's one of the ways he sort of breaks with the orthodoxy of the Republican Party over the past 30 and 40 years.

00:29:03.200 And it's one of the things he has not changed.

00:29:04.920 I mean, he has been consistent over that.

00:29:07.180 You know, we talk about tariffs all the time.

00:29:08.960 You know, Donald Trump loves to threaten tariffs, and he loves implementing tariffs.

00:29:13.740 It's not like that with war.

00:29:15.040 He loves threatening war, but he does not like implementing it at all.

00:29:19.200 I mean, he does not want to do this.

00:29:21.440 I think that's a really good case.

00:29:23.240 His whole life, he has been for tariffs.

00:29:26.420 So, you know, he can say, look, I'm just threatening and I'm just using this as a bargaining chip.

00:29:30.420 I'm not so sure he I'm not so sure we would see the end of these tariffs.

00:29:34.580 Until the next president in two thousand.

00:29:38.220 Twenty four.

00:29:40.360 Because the president does believe in tariffs.

00:29:43.080 You're exactly right.

00:29:44.640 He does not believe in war.

00:29:47.220 He doesn't like it.

00:29:48.440 He's the opposite of walk softly and carry a big stick.

00:29:51.700 He's carry a big stick and walk and stomp your way into the room.

00:29:56.440 Make sure everybody knows that you're there.

00:29:58.860 But his history, if you look at Donald Trump and my favorite example of Donald Trump is how he got the Trump Tower built on Fifth Avenue.

00:30:07.300 And every time I tell this story, people are like, I had no idea.

00:30:12.600 Donald Trump, if you want to understand how he negotiates and what's happening with Iran right now is he went to his architects.

00:30:22.860 He knew that the airspace of the building that he just bought on Fifth Avenue.

00:30:27.820 He only had like three or five stories and the airspace was owned by either Cartier at Tiffany.

00:30:35.420 I think it was Tiffany and and they owned over his building all of the airspace.

00:30:41.680 So you not only have to buy land in New York, you have to buy the air above the land to be able to put a skyscraper up.

00:30:49.660 Well, he wanted to put one up and everybody said, well, Tiffany won't allow it.

00:30:52.980 They don't want that.

00:30:54.300 And he said, OK, and he talked to his architects and he said, I want you to drop two buildings.

00:30:58.740 I want you to drop the most beautiful, luxurious gold filled building anybody's ever seen.

00:31:04.360 Then I want you to draw up another building, the ugliest monstrosity in four stories you could ever possibly imagine.

00:31:13.740 So he walks into a meeting with Tiffany's and he rolls out the beautiful, luxurious right here on Fifth Avenue.

00:31:22.700 It's going to be a beacon for the world, the Trump Tower.

00:31:25.960 And Tiffany's listened to him and said, yeah, we're not doing that.

00:31:29.420 You know, we own the airspace.

00:31:30.740 That's why I'm here.

00:31:32.060 But I think you're going to be reasonable because this is a beautiful, luxurious.

00:31:35.900 It's going to be a beacon for the whole world.

00:31:39.060 OK, Tiffany wasn't moved by that argument.

00:31:41.640 And he said right before he left, OK, I tell you what, if you don't sell that to me, what I'm going to do is I'm going to build this building.

00:31:51.160 And he rolls out this ugly monstrosity and he looks at them in the eye and says, and I mean it.

00:31:58.000 Don't tempt me.

00:31:59.080 I'll do it.

00:32:00.040 I want to do it.

00:32:01.200 Please make me do it.

00:32:03.240 And what happened?

00:32:04.260 By the time he got back to the office, they had called and said, OK, build your big, huge tower.

00:32:09.940 That's how Donald Trump negotiates.

00:32:12.160 He never actually has to go to war.

00:32:14.860 He negotiates in a way like you don't want to do it, but I do.

00:32:19.160 I really want to do it.

00:32:20.640 Please make me do it.

00:32:22.200 Oh, I'm crazy.

00:32:23.620 I'll spend billions just to just to build a monstrosity.

00:32:27.360 I'll do it.

00:32:28.080 I want to do it. 1.00

00:32:29.140 I want to bomb you, Iran. 1.00

00:32:30.580 I want to. 1.00

00:32:31.220 I want to.

00:32:31.760 Oh, the Pentagon is begging me to do it.

00:32:34.200 I want to do it.

00:32:35.500 Don't make me do it, but I'll do it.

00:32:37.520 I'll think about doing it right now.

00:32:38.920 I might do it.

00:32:39.700 I might do it before I get back to the White House.

00:32:41.980 Please.

00:32:42.420 I want to do it.

00:32:43.100 I want to do it.

00:32:43.900 Oh, make me do it. 0.59

00:32:45.160 Would it be a beautiful, luxurious bombing?

00:32:47.300 I think I think it would.

00:32:48.400 I think it's a beautiful, luxurious bombing.

00:32:52.020 And listen to listen to listen to what he's actually saying.

00:32:55.780 Join the nations.

00:32:57.660 Join the world.

00:32:59.360 Come to the family of nations.

00:33:01.760 Look, this is going to be wonderful.

00:33:03.440 We'll all live together and you'll be able to sell your oil and we'll be fine.

00:33:07.840 And it'll be wonderful.

00:33:09.300 It's a big, beautiful thing.

00:33:10.680 And we'll be known as the big, beautiful peacemakers for all time to come.

00:33:15.580 I want that.

00:33:16.740 But sometimes I want to bomb you more than that. 1.00

00:33:19.400 Oh, please make me bomb you. 0.99

00:33:23.160 And I think that's an effective strategy in most circumstances, right?

00:33:28.180 I mean, as long as people believe that you're twitchy enough to actually follow through, you're, you know, it works, you know.

00:33:36.080 And that's what they respond to.

00:33:37.820 Yeah.

00:33:38.400 In the Middle East, that's what they seem to understand and respond to.

00:33:42.200 Yes.

00:33:42.900 They don't understand peacemakers.

00:33:46.060 No.

00:33:46.460 They think that's a sign of weakness.

00:33:49.120 But I mean, this is pretty well publicized here.

00:33:51.200 Here's a guy who's already pulled out of the Iran deal, right?

00:33:53.780 Like Barack Obama, you know, crafted the Iran deal, right?

00:33:57.400 So they already know this guy is twitchy.

00:34:00.080 Why are they testing like this?

00:34:02.100 It is amazing to me.

00:34:03.180 Like, for example, like this drone, which is $130 million in cost that we lost, $130 million drone,

00:34:11.400 was specifically designed to be able to avoid surface-to-air missiles.

00:34:15.900 So how exactly does Iran have the technology to be able to knock one of these things out of the sky? 0.99

00:34:22.120 I think that's a really interesting open question.

00:34:24.620 Russia.

00:34:25.180 Yeah.

00:34:25.620 I mean, is their technology more impressive than we think?

00:34:31.240 And, you know, look.

00:34:32.740 I don't know if you're making me want to do it.

00:34:34.400 I want to do it.

00:34:35.320 I want to do it.

00:34:36.280 Let me push the button.

00:34:37.260 They tell me not to push the button.

00:34:38.580 I want to push the button.

00:34:39.660 We maybe should spend time on this next week, Glenn, in that, like, you know, the idea of war with Iran is not the idea of war with, you know, a few missiles into Syria.

00:34:47.980 It's not a few missiles into Libya.

00:34:50.420 It's not even Iraq.

00:34:52.600 Like, this is a – it's not us, but it's a relatively advanced military that could give us serious problems.

00:35:00.120 I don't even think that – I agree with you, but that's not what concerns me.

00:35:06.400 What concerns me most is the power of the terrorist network that Iran has that they would employ all throughout Europe, the power that they have in the strait to be able to really dramatically shift resources and to stop resources from going into our allies of oil. 0.93

00:35:30.240 And the biggest thing is they have an ally, and that ally is a big Russian bear who I also want to destroy. 0.67

00:35:37.220 But I love him.

00:35:38.080 I love him. 0.99

00:35:38.600 He's great, but I'd like to destroy him. 1.00

00:35:40.260 Please let me destroy him. 0.98

00:35:42.440 I mean, it is – I believe that Iran could be the key to the next global war, that Iran could be the one that is the house that you have to topple over, and then we go into World War III. 0.99

00:35:59.820 I do know that scriptures tell us that when the bear and Iran sign a treaty together, which they already have, and become allies, that that is the Armageddon team. 0.86

00:36:18.100 That's Gog and Magog. 0.99

00:36:20.540 I say we stay away from Gog and Magog. 1.00

00:36:22.840 I'd like to stay away from that one.

00:36:24.520 I think that's not a good thing.

00:36:26.000 I think that's not a good thing.

00:36:27.180 But then again, I kind of like Gog and Magog. 0.97

00:36:30.120 I'd like to see them come together.

00:36:31.400 It's like the gatekeeper and the key master.

00:36:33.860 Oh, yeah.

00:36:34.600 Make me – let them come together.

00:36:36.880 All right.

00:36:37.380 Thanks, guys.

00:36:38.280 Let's stop for a quick break and tell you about X-Chair.

00:36:42.820 First thing you do when you get into a car is you adjust the seat.

00:36:46.900 Most cars – blinds.com.

00:36:50.560 Blinds.com.

00:36:51.420 Okay.

00:36:52.000 Well, let me tell you about blinds.com.

00:36:53.520 Sorry about that.

00:36:55.020 I want to tell you about X-Chair, too.

00:36:56.920 Oh, yeah.

00:36:57.980 Make me tell you about the chair.

00:37:00.920 Blinds.com.

00:37:02.300 They are a company that was started – an internet company that was started selling blinds online in the 90s.

00:37:11.600 Let me just remind you of this.

00:37:13.820 Beep, boop, shh.

00:37:16.860 You got to be an old-time guy to remember that.

00:37:20.100 I remember when it took an hour to download a picture.

00:37:23.920 Moving pictures?

00:37:25.260 Never.

00:37:25.960 This is amazing.

00:37:27.800 Now, imagine starting an internet company where you're like, I want to show people drapes and curtains.

00:37:32.100 I want to show them blinds and shutters, and we'll sell them online because that's where everybody's going to be.

00:37:39.840 That was insane.

00:37:42.180 But the president, who was the father of this family, said to his son, you know what?

00:37:47.940 I think you're on to something that does sound like the future, but if we're going to do that, we have to make sure that we get free samples out.

00:37:54.460 We have to make sure it's really super easy because nobody's going to do the beep, boop, shh, over and over and over again.

00:38:02.100 And we have to make sure that we guarantee it.

00:38:04.340 If it's not right, we'll take care of it.

00:38:07.180 They did.

00:38:08.080 That's why they're the number one online sales now for custom window coverings, blinds, shutters, drapes, whatever it is that you want for your windows.

00:38:19.260 Blinds.com has it.

00:38:20.700 And right now, they have a huge semi-annual sale where you'll save 40% on customer favorites plus an extra $20 off with promo code BECK.

00:38:30.800 Save 40% on customer favorites plus another 20% off the top if you use the promo code BECK at blinds.com.

00:38:39.200 Promo code BECK, blinds.com.

00:38:41.500 Rules and restrictions do apply.

00:38:45.260 All right.

00:38:46.380 Bill O'Reilly is coming up in just a second.

00:38:48.880 I got to warn you.

00:38:50.600 They found ways to.

00:38:52.320 Man, it's just the big cereal companies that want your children to die of cancer.

00:39:00.300 Ah, yes.

00:39:01.180 And they found another way to get that cancer into your kids. 0.74

00:39:04.680 Yeah, if you saw.

00:39:05.340 Sugar cereal.

00:39:05.740 If you saw these headlines, Honey Nut Cheerios is going to give your kids cancer. 0.51

00:39:09.320 Basically, it's almost, you know, a study found that they found dangerous levels of glyphosate in these cereals.

00:39:16.660 Glyphosate's the thing that's in Roundup.

00:39:17.780 Yeah, but it makes your heart healthy.

00:39:19.080 Right.

00:39:19.360 It makes your heart healthy.

00:39:20.400 Whatever.

00:39:20.760 I don't care what the bee tells me.

00:39:21.940 It's delicious and I'm eating it.

00:39:23.580 Whether it gives me cancer or not, I'm still going for it.

00:39:25.660 But so, I decided to look into the actual details of the study, which is just, it's absurd.

00:39:30.060 So, first of all, it comes from this, like, left-wing environmental group.

00:39:33.580 And it is a not, shockingly, not peer-reviewed.

00:39:36.540 I thought peer-reviewed science was the only way to do science.

00:39:39.040 Not peer-reviewed.

00:39:39.860 They did not release their data.

00:39:41.360 They did not release their methods.

00:39:43.080 They're just telling everyone that we found this and we swear it's true.

00:39:47.360 So, you have to, first of all, take the, you know, face value, this environmental group that's against, you know, the, you know, Roundup and glyphosate and everything to believe that.

00:39:57.460 But let's just take them at their word for a minute just for the thought experiment here.

00:40:02.020 How do they figure out what is toxic when it comes to levels of chemicals?

00:40:05.240 We all know that everything has a toxic level, including water, right?

00:40:07.720 Like, you drink too much water, you will eventually die.

00:40:09.900 So, there's a toxic level of everything.

00:40:11.220 So, how do they do this with something like glyphosate?

00:40:13.940 What they did is they first go to a species that's much more likely to get cancer than us, which is mice.

00:40:19.820 And then they just load these things up.

00:40:21.440 I mean, they load these mice up with mice to see if they can figure out what the toxic level is.

00:40:26.060 So, they take the absolute minimum level that may cause harm.

00:40:29.740 It's about 140,000 milligrams a day.

00:40:33.340 Then, because they want to adjust it for children, they lower that number by about 80%.

00:40:37.920 Okay?

00:40:38.720 So, now you're at 30,000 milligrams a day.

00:40:40.440 Then, they divide it by 10 because they want to make sure that we're super safe.

00:40:45.320 Okay?

00:40:45.580 So, now we're at 3,000 milligrams a day.

00:40:48.040 Then, for safety, to figure out the minimum level, they divide it by 100.

00:40:52.640 So, now we're at 30 milligrams a day.

00:40:55.120 Okay?

00:40:56.040 Wait!

00:40:56.520 What?

00:40:57.240 This is how they figure out the level.

00:40:59.240 This is how the EPA figures out the level of what's okay for you to have.

00:41:02.760 So, it's way less than the absolute minimum that they would give to mice and it would cause any issues.

00:41:07.980 Then, California does what California does. 0.56

00:41:10.200 They take the EPA standard and they lower that standard by 97%.

00:41:14.320 Okay?

00:41:15.040 So, now we're at 1.1 milligrams per day you're allowed to have by this.

00:41:19.220 So, how would you...

00:41:20.220 So, I could have 1.1...

00:41:21.440 In California, I could have 1.1 milligram of weed killer.

00:41:27.060 Yeah, right.

00:41:27.540 A day and it'd be completely fine.

00:41:29.340 Yeah.

00:41:29.420 So, how much would you have to eat cereal-wise to get to 1.1 milligrams a day?

00:41:33.020 You would have to have 80 bowls a day, every day for 80 years, and that would give you a 1 in 10,000 chance of having harm against you.

00:41:44.460 Oh, my gosh.

00:41:45.440 I've never even thought of General Mills or, you know, Tony the Tiger's attorneys, but I hope they have big attorneys and they go after this crazy environmental group.

00:41:55.440 Yeah, well, Tony the Tiger actually is an attorney.

00:41:57.620 Meantime, I'm going to have some Froot Loops.

00:41:58.340 You didn't know that?

00:41:58.920 He is.

00:41:59.660 Oh, he did have a break case.

00:42:00.860 I think he did.

00:42:01.740 Yeah, that's right.

00:42:03.020 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:42:07.840 I'm Hillary.

00:42:08.520 That's your 4-Minute Buzz.

00:42:09.480 And now, here's Glenn and Stu with the next hour of the show.

00:42:12.500 Thank you so much, Hillary.

00:42:13.840 Welcome to the program.

00:42:15.180 I want to tell you about a cruise that we're going on.

00:42:17.000 What is the...

00:42:18.060 It's the food, isn't it?

00:42:18.960 That's the only thing that got you onto this cruise, Stu.

00:42:22.720 Well, I did hear that you stacked it with lots of really smart people.

00:42:25.640 So, I feel like my actual responsibility on the cruise is going to be low.

00:42:30.200 So, like, they're going to be going over there.

00:42:31.620 Yeah.

00:42:31.700 Like, oh, you guys are talking about history, and I can be at the bar, or I can be at the

00:42:34.380 Italian food place.

00:42:35.080 Yeah, but you never go to these things.

00:42:36.540 You've never been to the Middle East, because you're like, I'm not going there. 0.99

00:42:39.160 I'm not going there.

00:42:40.000 I feel like this one is a once-in-a-lifetime thing.

00:42:41.560 You don't like leaving.

00:42:42.620 I do really think this is a once-in-a-lifetime thing.

00:42:44.220 I'm going to bring my kids to it.

00:42:45.360 I mean, my kids learn about Israel all the time.

00:42:48.240 They go to a Christian school and are going to be very fascinated by this.

00:42:51.960 And I feel like I'm never going to bring them.

00:42:54.340 So, this thing, this is an amazing trip.

00:42:57.460 And it's going to, you know, Greece and Venice and Croatia and Israel.

00:43:02.620 I mean, it's going to be incredible.

00:43:03.340 Well, I mean, Venice, Greece, you know, still up the top of a hill of that mountain.

00:43:08.220 So, we got the Mediterranean really has to go through a lot of global warming.

00:43:11.540 But Venice, it could be submerged with global warming in 10 minutes.

00:43:14.680 So, this may be the last time you get to see that.

00:43:17.840 It's truly an amazing once-in-a-lifetime cruise.

00:43:21.040 I'll be there.

00:43:21.820 Stu will be there.

00:43:22.900 Bill O'Reilly, David Barton, Rabbi Lappin.

00:43:25.520 We're going to give you a tour of the Mediterranean.

00:43:28.360 Unlike anything you can possibly ever buy, again, it's ComeSailAway.com.

00:43:35.180 Come join us next spring.

00:43:36.300 ComeSailAway.com.

00:43:50.160 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:43:55.560 Hey! 0.99

00:43:58.360 The media just says that our crazy president, he just wants war. 0.95

00:44:02.560 Oh, I want to do it. 0.70

00:44:03.640 Please make me do it.

00:44:04.840 Yes, I want to push that button.

00:44:07.140 But what really happened last night?

00:44:09.780 He gave the go-ahead to go after the missile system of Iran and then found out that it could 1.00

00:44:16.920 cost as many as 150 Iranian lives and said, I want to do it. 1.00

00:44:21.500 I want to do it.

00:44:22.460 But I shouldn't do it.

00:44:23.640 Oh, make me do it, Iran. 1.00

00:44:24.940 What really happened yesterday?

00:44:28.160 And what should we be getting out of this?

00:44:31.120 What does war with Iran even mean?

00:44:34.120 We'll go to Bill O'Reilly in one minute.

00:44:37.560 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:44:39.760 If you're a regular listener, you know that I support the United States Concealed Carry

00:44:47.520 Association.

00:44:48.680 You know that I'm a concealed carry weapon owner.

00:44:52.800 I carry a weapon with me and I like being up at the ranch because I can open up my front

00:44:58.000 door and go to my porch and shoot my gun off and try to hit some targets.

00:45:02.680 But yeah, all I need is a refrigerator on the front porch and I'm there.

00:45:07.620 Anyway, the United States Concealed Carry Association, the USCCA, would love to introduce

00:45:13.700 themselves to you, but they thought they would do it in a really kind of unique and different

00:45:17.480 way.

00:45:17.980 It takes some balls to do and I love it.

00:45:20.200 Text Glenn to 87222.

00:45:23.280 Text Glenn to 87222.

00:45:25.900 And you could win a new gun by midnight tonight.

00:45:28.820 Could be an AR.

00:45:29.580 Could be a SIG.

00:45:30.320 Could be a Beretta.

00:45:32.640 I don't even know.

00:45:33.840 Beretta?

00:45:34.540 Does the bird come?

00:45:35.960 That is so funny.

00:45:37.600 It's like the old TV show called Beretta and he had a bird.

00:45:41.020 Anyway, text Glenn to 87222.

00:45:45.300 87222 to reveal the gun that you could take home today.

00:45:49.020 Get your free entry now to win.

00:45:51.780 Again, it ends at midnight tonight.

00:45:54.200 Text Glenn to the number 87222 and get entered to win your free gun from the USCCA.

00:46:00.720 Right now.

00:46:06.560 Oh yeah.

00:46:07.840 Looks like we're traveling a little uptown.

00:46:11.400 Having a conversation with one of the cool cats, one of the real swingers of Manhattan. 0.79

00:46:17.740 Yes, it's Mr. Bill O'Reilly.

00:46:19.360 Hello Bill, how are you?

00:46:20.780 Yeah, that's me, Vic.

00:46:22.300 Yeah, I am.

00:46:23.400 I'm a beatnik.

00:46:24.000 Yeah, that's you.

00:46:26.440 You were just, when I think of, well, not personally, but I know, you know, you were 70 when the beatniks were.

00:46:36.360 Yeah, me and Maynard G. Krebs.

00:46:38.280 You remember Maynard G. Krebs?

00:46:40.640 I know the name and I don't know why.

00:46:43.100 Dobie Gillis.

00:46:44.960 Dobie Gillis, that's right.

00:46:46.440 Yeah, still before my time bill.

00:46:48.080 One of the greatest sitcoms of all time.

00:46:49.200 Work?

00:46:50.080 No.

00:46:50.480 All right, you want to talk about Iran, right?

00:46:52.260 Yeah, either that or you're going to end up with Fibber McGee's Closet.

00:46:57.020 So, yes, I'm going to go to Iran.

00:46:58.960 Yeah, we can ruminate about 50 sitcoms.

00:47:03.360 First of all, you know, you and everyone else are making the fundamental mistake of believing the New York Times.

00:47:10.260 And, I mean, I sit here and I'm just amazed that the whole country.

00:47:16.100 So, the New York Times, once again, goes out with anonymous sources and says, oh, Trump is going to blow the hell out of them.

00:47:25.520 But then at the last minute, he decided he wasn't.

00:47:28.520 And everybody came home.

00:47:30.660 Okay, that might be true.

00:47:32.880 But there is just as good a possibility that it isn't true.

00:47:35.880 Because the authors of the article have been wrong 95% of the time in the past, what they've written.

00:47:44.560 So, I say to myself.

00:47:46.620 They had, I will tell you this, Bill.

00:47:48.160 They did, because I looked for the writers of this article and I thought, okay, which writer is it?

00:47:53.300 But they did.

00:47:54.400 Now, again, just because there's more people that are usually wrong doesn't make it right.

00:47:59.140 But there were about 10 authors of this article.

00:48:02.820 They seem to have this.

00:48:04.780 Come on.

00:48:05.120 Woody, are you telling me there's 10 reporters talking to the same person?

00:48:11.520 Here's what I'm saying.

00:48:14.600 Here's what I'm saying.

00:48:15.920 I don't believe the New York Times because it's the New York Times.

00:48:19.040 And I don't believe the administration because it's the administration.

00:48:22.400 I will look at the facts on the ground.

00:48:24.580 And this, to me, makes sense.

00:48:28.340 And it actually works in Donald Trump's favor.

00:48:31.000 Now, not if I just take the New York Times.

00:48:35.700 But the analysis is based on your gut feeling and your frame of reference from what's happened in the past.

00:48:42.500 So that's what you should tell your listeners that, look, this is what I think happened based upon what I know about the Trump administration.

00:48:51.300 But all morning long, I mean, you empower an organization that has been absolutely dishonest.

00:48:59.320 Last hour, that's exactly what I did.

00:49:04.440 I'm sorry.

00:49:04.860 In my introduction to you, I didn't do the hour.

00:49:06.960 Yeah, yeah.

00:49:07.280 I mean, I always adjust it.

00:49:09.040 I'm listening.

00:49:09.680 I'm going back.

00:49:10.380 You can't be giving these people any kind of validity.

00:49:13.240 So I think the key question for all Americans is this.

00:49:17.200 What do we want to do about Iran?

00:49:19.880 We as a country.

00:49:21.220 We the people.

00:49:22.860 All right.

00:49:23.060 So you have to start there.

00:49:24.560 What do you want to do about them?

00:49:27.160 So we have that same question with North Korea and, to some extent, China.

00:49:33.260 So, okay.

00:49:34.480 Trump doesn't really want to do anything with them.

00:49:37.660 He'd like them to go away.

00:49:39.320 All right.

00:49:40.480 But he doesn't want to get involved because that's not going to help him.

00:49:46.020 All right.

00:49:46.760 If you read the picture, Davis.

00:49:48.380 Go ahead.

00:49:49.040 Go ahead.

00:49:49.980 Here's where the media is really doing a disservice to America because they continue to try to make him into a hate monger and a warmonger.

00:50:01.460 He is the exact opposite.

00:50:03.500 I don't know of him.

00:50:05.580 He never has wanted that.

00:50:07.280 He hates that.

00:50:10.020 And one of the things that Trump, I get into in the upcoming book is why.

00:50:19.620 And I'm not going to get into it now because it's not important for today's conversation.

00:50:23.020 But there's a reason that Trump does not want to have a confrontation in the Middle East that involves the U.S. military.

00:50:33.140 However, he's going to have to deal with Iran, whether he likes it or not. 0.99

00:50:38.460 You're going to have to deal with it.

00:50:39.700 Now, if you think back to the way Bush the Younger dealt with Iraq, he lost control of it. 0.90

00:50:47.200 So that's a lesson for all Americans.

00:50:52.060 Bush the Younger lost control of it.

00:50:55.360 All right.

00:50:56.120 Lyndon Johnson lost control of it in Vietnam.

00:51:00.560 Correct.

00:51:01.840 Correct.

00:51:02.260 It's easy to lose control.

00:51:04.980 Easy.

00:51:05.620 Correct.

00:51:06.680 All right.

00:51:07.180 And Trump knows this.

00:51:07.920 By the way, I have some breaking news, Bill.

00:51:09.960 Yes.

00:51:10.360 Trump just confirmed the reporting is accurate.

00:51:13.340 On that he pulled back.

00:51:16.540 Did he give any.

00:51:18.940 Did he say what he pulled back?

00:51:21.640 Yeah.

00:51:21.820 So I have the I have the the quote here.

00:51:24.380 What does that say?

00:51:24.960 What does that say?

00:51:25.380 It says Monday.

00:51:26.080 This is a quote from Donald Trump on Twitter.

00:51:28.400 He tweeted this on Monday.

00:51:29.300 They shot down an unmanned drone flying in international waters.

00:51:31.860 We were cocked and loaded to retaliate last night on three different sites.

00:51:35.680 When I asked how many will die.

00:51:37.640 One hundred and fifty people, sir, was the answer from a general.

00:51:40.520 Ten minutes before the strike.

00:51:41.680 I stopped it because it was not proportionate to shooting down an unmanned drone.

00:51:46.180 OK, I think that makes anybody in the air.

00:51:49.460 The decision that he made was based upon how many civilians or people around the sites would die.

00:51:56.860 That makes the New York Times.

00:51:58.660 Which the New York Times reported.

00:52:01.120 Yes.

00:52:01.440 Yes, it is.

00:52:02.080 That's what they.

00:52:02.880 Well, no, they it was not in the initial story.

00:52:05.300 They did.

00:52:05.860 You know, they've reported on it since, but it was not in the initial story.

00:52:09.820 Yeah.

00:52:09.980 They they they had that by this morning.

00:52:13.640 And I think, you know, I saw what the New York Times was.

00:52:17.480 And and the theme of their story was an indecisive president who was afraid.

00:52:23.600 Yeah, that's because they don't know they they have that story because they're cut your and you're exactly right.

00:52:30.520 And that is what I've been saying all day today.

00:52:32.780 This is a guy who doesn't like war, but he he will go to war if he has to.

00:52:39.020 But he doesn't want to.

00:52:40.740 The worst thing you can do is go to war with Iraq. 0.94

00:52:43.300 The people in his administration also know that the Pentagon has been saying that for 30 years.

00:52:49.060 It's why I think George Bush went to Iraq instead of Iran, because Iran is the real problem in the Middle East, that in Saudi Arabia. 0.99

00:52:57.660 But you can't go to war with them.

00:53:00.060 So Bush's theory was so put freedom on both sides and pop the head of the snake for the purposes of helping the American people, which I know you and Stu desperately want to do every second you're on the air.

00:53:13.440 True. All right.

00:53:14.100 So let's get back to what do you want to do, because that's where you start when you develop a policy.

00:53:21.780 Now, my opinion is you have to get that government out.

00:53:28.340 Have to.

00:53:29.680 But you can't do it militarily at this point because.

00:53:34.300 So, Bill, I said this.

00:53:36.420 Correct.

00:53:37.120 And I said this last hour.

00:53:38.580 I believe that Donald Trump would like to do what Reagan did to the Soviet Union.

00:53:44.240 But what Reagan did to the Soviet Union required a Thatcher and a pope. 1.00

00:53:50.660 Tell me who in the world is a Thatcher or a pope. 0.57

00:53:54.320 Right.

00:53:54.980 But here's what you can do.

00:53:56.340 And this is not that difficult.

00:53:59.360 So Iran is a troubled country because the currency is disappearing, almost like Venezuela.

00:54:07.380 Venezuela.

00:54:08.160 So when you're if you're in Iran and you're holding their money, their money is becoming worthless. 0.57

00:54:15.200 And unemployment for the folks is very, very high.

00:54:19.440 Tough to make a living.

00:54:20.900 Those are the two things that are happening because of the sanctions that the United States and other nations have imposed.

00:54:27.800 So now, if I'm Trump, I say, all right, look, we've had enough.

00:54:32.660 These people are dangerous and they're trying to disrupt the world.

00:54:35.860 So we're going to have total sanctions.

00:54:38.760 No one buys.

00:54:40.500 So the United States is going to do that.

00:54:42.660 We hope NATO does it.

00:54:44.260 We're asking NATO to do it.

00:54:46.220 And if any NATO country continues to trade with Iran on any basis, we will take note of that.

00:54:51.700 We're asking China and Russia to do it. 0.92

00:54:54.000 We know they won't.

00:54:55.480 But we're asking every decent country in the world, no trade with Iran at all.

00:55:00.180 Nothing.

00:55:01.780 Now, you're going to get maybe 65, 70 percent compliance on that because you can put a herd on the NATO countries if they don't cooperate.

00:55:11.040 And that's going to be enough, I think, after a year or maybe 18 months to get these mullahs out. 1.00

00:55:17.740 I think that the people in the Persians would would Iran is Persia. 0.62

00:55:23.900 So the Persian people would rise up and throw them out because they're not going to have anything to eat. 1.00

00:55:28.800 It's going to be like that as well.

00:55:32.120 All right.

00:55:32.820 So let me play devil's advocate on that, because, Bill, I think that's the only logical thing that we have left to do.

00:55:38.880 But let me play devil's advocate.

00:55:41.100 Let me play the New York Times, which may not be the advocate, maybe the devil themselves.

00:55:45.260 I'm not sure when we come back in one minute.

00:55:56.540 All right.

00:55:57.560 Ex-chair.

00:55:58.080 First thing you do when you get into a new car is you adjust the chair, right?

00:56:01.760 You adjust your seat.

00:56:02.620 If your seat doesn't have at least 10 different ways to adjust it, you're not in.

00:56:10.380 Well, I don't even know a luxury car that has 10 different adjustments, but you're certainly not in an ex-chair.

00:56:15.460 An ex-chair has 10 different adjustments that you can change.

00:56:19.200 So you are sitting exactly the way you want to sit.

00:56:22.100 It's it's really amazing, really, truly amazing.

00:56:25.280 And sometimes, you know, the chair change, you change and you don't you're like, I don't like it that way right now.

00:56:30.840 I, you know, I want to sit on the edge of it or whatever.

00:56:33.220 You can change it in so many different ways that it really adapts to exactly how you feel at the moment.

00:57:17.480 10 seconds, station ID.

00:57:23.480 All right, I'm going to be really pissed if we go to war on a Friday.

00:57:33.220 We cannot go to war on a Friday because, I mean, it will wreck my weekend.

00:57:37.100 It will really wreck my weekend.

00:57:38.520 Anyway, so let me play devil's advocate.

00:57:41.500 And I actually heard this today from the New York Times.

00:57:45.240 I'm listening to Michael Barbaro and New York Times, The Daily, and they're actually saying, you know, these sanctions, they're making Iraq or Iran more dangerous because the tighter the sanctions, they have nothing else they can do.

00:58:08.880 And I thought, gee, that's like saying, you know, when you discipline your children or you want your children to behave a certain way and you take away their phone, well, you're causing them to be more rebellious.

00:58:21.180 No, what are you supposed to do with a group of people that won't do it?

00:58:25.280 So the press will say, and many on the left will say, this is going to make things worse.

00:58:31.940 Total sanctions, it will trap this lion in a cage, and the only way to get out is with its claws.

00:58:40.100 Well, that's a John Kerry philosophy.

00:58:42.960 That's what the Obama administration did.

00:58:45.440 So, look, we'll buy them off.

00:58:47.680 We'll give them all these billions of dollars that we froze and hand them that money, which they did in cash.

00:58:54.900 And we'll give them a deal.

00:58:55.780 We didn't have any problems with them, did we?

00:58:57.940 We didn't have any problems with that.

00:58:59.420 Remember, I played the New York Times.

00:59:01.940 Well, come on.

00:59:03.360 A couple of years of peace, we did?

00:59:04.320 We didn't have any problems with them?

00:59:06.140 This is what I mean about the New York Times and the false reporting and failure to search for the truth.

00:59:12.580 Everybody knows that Iran and the Revolutionary Guard has been behind the Syrian stuff,

00:59:20.500 has been behind the Saudi Arabian stuff with the terrorism that's going on down there in the south of the peninsula,

00:59:29.760 been behind the trying to undermine the Iraq government.

00:59:36.480 These people, that's all they do.

00:59:37.940 They don't do anything else but try to foster terrorism in the Middle East. 0.99

00:59:41.420 Everybody knows that. 1.00

00:59:43.180 So, all of that is just garbage. 0.99

00:59:45.960 You know, you can do the Neville Chamberlain approach and appease, appease, appease. 0.96

00:59:49.840 I think the United States has been very reticent and not aggressive enough in Iran.

00:59:58.620 I would have done this total sanctioned things, I suggested, a long time ago.

01:00:02.840 Because you're going to have to confront them.

01:00:04.220 Yeah, I would have done it in 2003.

01:00:05.500 Yeah, you're going to have to do it.

01:00:07.780 It's going to have to come.

01:00:09.080 And once they do get a nuke, once they do become North Korea, God forbid, 0.98

01:00:16.040 then you have no good options left.

01:00:19.320 You have absolutely no good options.

01:00:22.160 They employ Hezbollah. 0.97

01:00:24.440 Hezbollah is Iran. 0.95

01:00:26.140 All right?

01:00:26.420 So Hezbollah basically can take whatever nuclear weapon they have, 0.83

01:00:31.580 whether it's a thimble or a full-blown, and do whatever they want with it.

01:00:36.400 So, I mean, this is a terrorist state. 0.99

01:00:39.640 The mullahs are a terrorist state. 1.00

01:00:41.120 It's not a rational government. 0.95

01:00:43.480 So the New York Times knows that, but we'll never say it.

01:00:47.100 Because if they said it, that would then make President Obama look bad.

01:00:53.020 And that's what's going on there.

01:00:53.560 So what do you say, Bill?

01:00:54.680 What do you say to the people?

01:00:56.620 Because I got this when I worked at CNN. 0.92

01:00:58.140 And it was like, are you people insane? 0.99

01:01:01.100 Are you out of your mind? 1.00

01:01:02.340 And they actually said to me that, you know, the mullahs don't actually believe in all the religious garbage. 0.99

01:01:10.880 They're just saying that to appease their people. 0.97

01:01:13.300 And they would never really actually use a nuke in Israel, et cetera, et cetera. 0.94

01:01:20.400 I tend to take radical, crazy religious people at their word. 0.99

01:01:26.300 If they say they're going to do something because God told them to, usually they mean it. 0.80

01:01:34.140 Do you believe that the mullahs—

01:01:35.300 Yeah, I mean, did they miss 9-11, or were they not here on vacation?

01:01:39.540 Right.

01:01:41.060 Look, there are two people you can't reason with.

01:01:45.880 Stu and—no, that's a joke.

01:01:49.480 I'm glad I made a list of these.

01:01:51.040 Two people you can't reason with.

01:01:54.440 Ideological, political zealots, whether they're left or right, no reasoning with them.

01:02:00.680 All right?

01:02:01.220 They're whatever mental thing is going on up there, you're not going to get through.

01:02:08.140 Right.

01:02:08.380 And people who are consumed with hatred.

01:02:14.160 Now, there is where you've got the mullers. 1.00

01:02:16.460 I don't know what the mullers believe, what they don't believe.

01:02:19.000 I don't know what they're doing.

01:02:19.840 I don't care.

01:02:21.040 I know they hate us.

01:02:23.020 They hate everything that America is.

01:02:26.940 Freedom, secular, capitalist, whatever we are, they hate us.

01:02:34.040 And that's what it is.

01:02:36.340 And you're not going to change it.

01:02:38.240 So why bother even discussing it?

01:02:39.900 I don't even have discussions like that.

01:02:42.260 You either get a strategy to deal with Iran or you don't. 0.96

01:02:45.840 I'm hoping President Trump and his administration can come up with one.

01:02:49.540 Right now, I don't know what their strategy is.

01:02:52.360 I'd like to know what it is.

01:02:54.120 Go ahead.

01:02:54.540 You know John Bolton, right, personally?

01:02:59.140 Yes.

01:02:59.360 Okay.

01:02:59.840 I do, too.

01:03:00.840 I like John Bolton.

01:03:02.120 I think he is cut from the same cloth of Reagan.

01:03:05.560 He's not a crazy man.

01:03:07.060 He's not a warmonger.

01:03:08.140 But he doesn't believe in fooling around with evil.

01:03:11.880 No, he's Cheney.

01:03:14.920 That's the problem.

01:03:16.580 So the ambassador is Cheney.

01:03:19.400 They're the same mindset.

01:03:21.040 And their mindset is, use American power when it's necessary.

01:03:26.400 And don't, don't compromise and don't elongate it.

01:03:31.920 But Bolton, he's not going to win this.

01:03:36.080 Yeah, when it's necessary.

01:03:36.920 So you think...

01:03:37.600 He believes that Iran's an evil nation.

01:03:39.340 It's got to be taken off the map.

01:03:41.780 Not literally. 0.95

01:03:43.340 You don't have to kill them all. 0.99

01:03:44.520 But it has to be overthrown. 0.99

01:03:46.360 That's what Bolton believes.

01:03:47.500 The regime, yeah.

01:03:48.620 And, but do you believe that he's only willing to do that through bloodshed?

01:03:54.020 Or do you think he's willing to put tough sanctions and everything else?

01:03:57.800 But, I mean, he's in those discussions.

01:03:59.580 So everybody in the Trump administration knows what his strategy is.

01:04:04.800 See, I, again, I would like to know what the president's strategy is toward Iran.

01:04:09.580 Are you going to try to overthrow them?

01:04:11.920 Or, you know, I know you don't want to say that.

01:04:15.200 Because that could make things worse.

01:04:17.840 But, you've got to basically define, look, we have this terrorist state causing a lot of trouble.

01:04:25.920 We believe it can't continue.

01:04:28.340 That's all.

01:04:29.940 You know, so then the message goes out, okay, something's going to happen.

01:04:34.260 You don't have to tell them what it is.

01:04:35.980 But right now, we don't even know if something's going to happen.

01:04:39.600 All right, so isn't that exactly, though, what Ronald Reagan did?

01:04:43.700 He called them an evil empire, and it can't last, and it won't last.

01:04:48.640 But he still was in negotiations with them.

01:04:51.720 He still was friendly towards Gorbachev, etc., etc.

01:04:56.180 I'll get your response when we come back.

01:04:58.600 Bill O'Reilly from BillOReilly.com

01:05:01.180 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:05:12.260 You know, there's very few things that can change your day and just wreck your day.

01:05:18.840 Phone call from the school where your kids are going, saying your kid is in detention.

01:05:23.800 You're like, oh my God, that wrecks your day.

01:05:26.860 Another one is just your check engine light going off.

01:05:31.240 Now, it doesn't necessarily wreck your day because you're thinking, oh, it's probably just something small, right?

01:05:41.880 It's probably that.

01:05:43.920 But once you get to the mechanic and that check engine light or something goes wrong, you know you don't have the $500 to fix it.

01:05:51.060 Nobody has.

01:05:52.160 Nobody is sitting around with an extra $500,000 or $600,000.

01:05:56.420 You're like, you know what I'd like to do?

01:05:57.720 I'd like to sink this into my car, which I shouldn't have to sink into it.

01:06:01.700 It should work, but something happened.

01:06:33.440 Two wonderful subscriptions you can buy today.

01:06:38.680 We're with the one and the only Mr. Bill O'Reilly.

01:06:42.540 We're talking about war with Iran and, you know, bad idea.

01:06:50.180 And I don't think the White House wants it.

01:06:52.040 I don't think the Pentagon wants it.

01:06:53.660 I don't think anybody wants that.

01:06:55.020 The ones who really do kind of want some of it, at least to stir everybody up, I think, is Iran. 1.00

01:07:03.420 That's, you know, they go after four oil tankers.

01:07:05.620 And the reason why France and Germany said nothing about it, and I'd like to hear your opinion on this, Bill.

01:07:11.920 We came out and said, yes, we have the evidence that it is Iran.

01:07:14.640 And the foreign minister of both France and Germany came out and said, well, I mean, maybe.

01:07:19.980 I mean, it's a little too early to tell.

01:07:22.180 They're just afraid of Iran causing economic disruption for them.

01:07:27.940 So, of course, that's what they're going to say.

01:07:30.060 Of course.

01:07:30.680 I'm going to Germany next week.

01:07:32.560 I'm going to wise up Merkel.

01:07:33.980 I'm going to, you know, actually, OK, I am actually going to go.

01:07:38.420 I'm going to Berlin and I'm meeting some very high level people over there.

01:07:43.880 And you're absolutely right.

01:07:46.140 I mean, they don't want business to be interrupted.

01:07:48.100 It's always the way it's been.

01:07:49.780 Always the way it's been.

01:07:51.960 And the American people don't want business interrupted either.

01:07:54.760 It is Trump.

01:07:55.280 Yeah, I was going to say, I think Donald Trump is kind of the same.

01:07:58.920 Right.

01:07:59.840 This would be the worst thing that could happen for Donald Trump is more with Iran. 0.99

01:08:04.120 So just slap the sanctions on him and tell everybody to cooperate or, you know, we won't buy their stuff.

01:08:10.120 So that's the way to do it in the short term.

01:08:12.460 And then long term, you've got to figure out what your strategy is going to take a little bit.

01:08:16.400 But you mentioned before the break, Reagan.

01:08:18.100 Reagan was obsessed with the Soviet Union.

01:08:22.300 Obsessed.

01:08:22.740 And if you read Killing Reagan, I know you read it twice, Beck.

01:08:26.820 It goes all the way back to his Hollywood days, to Ronald Reagan's Hollywood days,

01:08:31.160 when he was one of the guys who actually informed on the communists in Hollywood.

01:08:37.960 Reagan was actually an informer.

01:08:40.680 And he was so angry that he was exposed in that area that he said, look, I did what I thought I was right back in Hollywood

01:08:51.920 because these people are off the chart evil.

01:08:55.860 So it was personal for Reagan to get the Soviet Union.

01:08:59.480 And that's what that was all about.

01:09:02.800 All right, Bill, let's change the subject.

01:09:04.780 Let's go through a couple of other things quickly.

01:09:06.640 First of all, you just mentioned Angela Merkel.

01:09:08.360 I wasn't going to bring this up.

01:09:09.260 But did you see the video of her shaking?

01:09:11.580 Do you believe that was just dehydration?

01:09:13.720 What people don't know about that is that right before that video was taken,

01:09:19.600 she was listening to Chubby Checker, the twist.

01:09:23.960 And that's what that was all about, Beck.

01:09:25.700 Really?

01:09:26.500 Really?

01:09:26.900 Are we going to make some Glenn Miller jokes, too, later?

01:09:28.800 You know, you think your audience is like 18?

01:09:34.800 Is that what you're thinking here?

01:09:36.000 No, I don't.

01:09:36.760 No, I don't.

01:09:37.760 I just like making you feel old.

01:09:40.500 I know.

01:09:41.000 I know.

01:09:41.420 I know.

01:09:41.860 I just like to make you feel old.

01:09:44.320 You can't because if I stand, look, on this cruise, people are going to see me standing

01:09:49.720 right next to you, Beck.

01:09:51.640 All right?

01:09:52.060 And they're going to see, I didn't know O'Reilly was 10 years old or younger than Beck.

01:09:55.800 I didn't know that.

01:09:56.600 But they're going to see you with their own eyes.

01:09:59.660 Right.

01:10:00.200 I'm going to get right to the chase.

01:10:02.400 The far left thing that Trump did on Tuesday night is very important for this country and

01:10:12.580 for Trump.

01:10:13.140 But I don't care about Trump.

01:10:14.460 I'm not rooting for whatever.

01:10:16.600 I've got to watch them all, as you know.

01:10:19.280 You're talking about his rally.

01:10:21.220 Yes.

01:10:22.360 He goes over the most of total waste of time.

01:10:24.700 We got it.

01:10:25.400 You won.

01:10:26.040 All right?

01:10:26.380 We don't need to hear it 55 more times.

01:10:29.100 I know.

01:10:29.660 Then he segues into what I've been doing on BillOReilly.com for a month.

01:10:34.820 You've got to define, all right, the danger from Cory Booker and from Bernie Sanders and

01:10:43.300 from Kamala Harris and the whole crew.

01:10:46.580 You've got to define it so Americans know this is a dangerous operation, this far left business.

01:10:53.800 And then he started to do it, Trump, with the Kavanaugh stuff, and then he got in.

01:11:00.420 But he didn't do it enough.

01:11:01.540 This is the lead, this is the lead beside the economy.

01:11:04.260 This is the lead.

01:11:06.540 Here's what's going on that everybody should know.

01:11:10.860 This far left cabal has hundreds of millions of dollars at its disposal.

01:11:18.040 Okay, number one.

01:11:20.100 And it's not as big as you think.

01:11:22.320 It's just well-funded and well-directed.

01:11:25.780 And organized.

01:11:27.260 All right?

01:11:27.680 They're on social media.

01:11:29.680 There's five or six organizations, and they have hundreds of millions of dollars to spread

01:11:33.820 their propaganda.

01:11:34.340 What they're trying to do is to convince young Americans and minorities that you live in an 0.97

01:11:42.540 evil country.

01:11:44.360 America's evil. 0.98

01:11:45.940 Not Iran. 0.97

01:11:47.180 Not Russia. 0.69

01:11:48.340 America.

01:11:49.480 That is the goal.

01:11:52.380 Convince gullible, naive, ill-informed people that they are living in an evil country.

01:11:59.960 And therefore, that's what reparations is all about.

01:12:04.540 That's what social justice is all about.

01:12:07.380 That's what let everybody out of prison is all about.

01:12:10.340 That's what the homeless overrun cities is all about. 1.00

01:12:13.520 It's all America is evil, evil, evil.

01:12:17.440 If you can get that mindset established, if you can get enough Americans believing that 1.00

01:12:23.900 garbage, then you can overthrow traditional America. 1.00

01:12:29.960 So, now, here's the thing, Bill. 0.99

01:12:31.900 That's what is going on here.

01:12:34.900 Correct.

01:12:35.220 Now, you not only are trying to do that, but as a side benefit, you also will discredit

01:12:45.020 everything so much that the average person who is not into all of this and just wants

01:12:51.600 to do their job, they just become sick of it.

01:12:54.880 And so, they're not paying attention and they don't know, they don't want to pick a side

01:13:00.720 because they don't want to be like that.

01:13:02.680 And so, the people who have the most to lose don't stand up because they don't know what

01:13:09.940 to do because they haven't really thought of it.

01:13:11.880 Well, that's their fault.

01:13:13.860 They're just tired of it. 1.00

01:13:14.640 I'm not feeling sorry for the morons. 1.00

01:13:17.320 I'm sorry. 1.00

01:13:18.200 If you're a lazy person who all you want to do is play video games all day long and you

01:13:23.920 don't know anything, I don't feel sorry for you.

01:13:27.700 So, I don't either.

01:13:28.420 But I will tell you, Bill, that I think that that is a hasty generalization of who I'm

01:13:33.660 talking about.

01:13:34.220 I think there are a lot of parents out there who are so struggling with everything else

01:13:39.960 in their life, school.

01:13:41.800 I mean, raising a kid, I got a 15-year-old kid.

01:13:43.900 Well, you know, you're kids.

01:13:46.060 Raising them in today's world is handful enough and you think, I am just overwhelmed.

01:13:51.880 You watch this stuff on TV, you don't feel, because this is the lie, you don't feel you

01:13:57.040 can change anything.

01:13:59.100 Pardon me?

01:13:59.180 Two words.

01:14:00.660 Buck up.

01:14:02.320 This is important.

01:14:04.300 Okay?

01:14:04.780 I agree.

01:14:05.120 If you want your country, you know, my slogan on BillOReilly.com is take your country back.

01:14:14.180 Because this is the first time in history that you have had a radical movement that has been

01:14:20.720 embraced and enabled by the media.

01:14:23.360 You have never had that before in America.

01:14:28.200 Never.

01:14:29.740 Now, their voices fighting against it.

01:14:33.320 Beck, Riley.

01:14:33.860 Closest you came to that.

01:14:36.360 Go ahead.

01:14:37.000 I'm sorry.

01:14:37.460 We have a satellite delay.

01:14:38.620 Closest thing you came to that is probably FDR, where they were in bed with them, but

01:14:43.060 they were not in bed with the riots on the streets.

01:14:45.740 But it was a fundamental philosophical agreement with Franklin Roosevelt.

01:14:53.200 Not, we hate our country.

01:14:56.180 Correct.

01:14:56.480 You've got to understand, the people like George Soros and these people hate the USA.

01:15:04.220 They believe that Thomas Jefferson and George Washington were white supremacists.

01:15:09.860 They believe that this country is built on the back of exploiting minorities.

01:15:16.940 They believe it is wrong and immoral to stop anyone from coming here.

01:15:22.920 Anyone.

01:15:24.400 So what do you take from...

01:15:25.920 This people will absolutely destroy this country in 20 years unless they're checked.

01:15:30.640 Oh, it won't take 20 years.

01:15:32.380 Yeah, it won't take 20 years.

01:15:33.600 I bet we have another five left in this at this pace, but I hope it's 20 years.

01:15:39.860 Okay, so what do you take away from...

01:15:44.680 Trump wouldn't have been elected if it had tipped, if the point had tipped.

01:15:50.460 All right?

01:15:51.220 So it's the majority still love their country.

01:15:56.220 But if you're going to sit it out, then you're going to lose your country.

01:16:01.140 And I am so angry about this because I see it better than anybody because I went through it.

01:16:06.340 Go ahead.

01:16:06.860 Bill, what do you take away from Chuck Todd having a moment where he's saying,

01:16:18.900 which should not be courageous by any stretch?

01:16:22.140 Why is it I can't critique Ocasio-Cortez?

01:16:25.340 What she said was wrong, was wrong, and we shouldn't be standing for it.

01:16:30.480 What do you take away from the lesson that everyone on the left gave to him on shut your mouth and sit down?

01:16:41.220 Listen, this is...

01:16:44.220 It's even worse than Chuck Todd.

01:16:47.040 It's Biden.

01:16:48.360 Biden can't even come out and say, you know what?

01:16:50.640 I didn't like these southern senators because I believe they were segregationists, but I worked with him, and we advanced the good of the country. 0.56

01:16:59.480 He's a racist.

01:17:00.940 Biden's got to apologize. 0.95

01:17:02.620 Now, Ocasio-Cortez, if I handed her my book, Killing the SS, if I handed it to her and said, look, why don't you read this and find out what concentration camps really were?

01:17:12.980 Because you're lying.

01:17:14.720 You're not just misinformed.

01:17:16.220 You're lying.

01:17:17.020 There are no concentration camps on the southern border, and there never were.

01:17:22.300 You're lying.

01:17:23.240 Here's the proof.

01:17:24.380 Read it.

01:17:25.020 She would not read it.

01:17:27.360 She would not do it.

01:17:29.220 She doesn't care about it, the truth.

01:17:32.560 She despises her country.

01:17:36.020 She wants to tear the fabric of the country down. 1.00

01:17:39.660 So do you believe that, I know, but do you believe that Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, et cetera, et cetera, hate and despise our country and want to tear it down, or are now afraid of this, of the left, that they are just, they're not going to do anything about it?

01:17:58.160 They're intimidated because they don't want to be torn to pieces like O'Reilly was.

01:18:05.240 And look, when they tore me to pieces two years ago, everybody got the message.

01:18:11.940 All right?

01:18:12.420 The corporation aren't going to back you.

01:18:14.760 They're not going to back you.

01:18:16.240 And you're going to get torn to pieces by the media that despises you.

01:18:20.880 Well, everybody got it.

01:18:23.080 Pelosi doesn't want people going looking around into her life.

01:18:26.500 She doesn't want that. 0.84

01:18:29.380 Biden's just, this is just beginning for Biden. 0.67

01:18:32.600 They're going to try to tear his throat out. 0.63

01:18:35.940 Okay? 0.95

01:18:36.660 And this is what I'm saying.

01:18:38.640 Biden's a white man. 0.98

01:18:40.240 Just because he's a white man, he's not worthy to be president. 0.95

01:18:45.500 Now, you think I'm an extremist? 0.78

01:18:47.000 You think I'm saying, this is exactly what's happening?

01:18:50.520 No, it is exactly, you're exactly right on this.

01:18:53.060 Now, let me ask you this.

01:18:54.300 Does this work to his advantage with the independents who are sick of all of this stuff when he says, I'm not apologizing for anything?

01:19:05.040 Yes.

01:19:05.680 Doesn't that work to his advantage?

01:19:08.100 That was the first time he stood up to them, by the way.

01:19:10.920 All right?

01:19:11.180 Yes, I know.

01:19:12.180 He stood up to them yesterday because I know somebody told him to do it.

01:19:17.000 And that helps him with the not crazy Democrats.

01:19:20.220 Not all Democrats are crazy or hate their country.

01:19:23.980 All right? 0.96

01:19:24.100 I agree.

01:19:24.580 This far-left cabal is about 15%.

01:19:27.420 But they control the media and they've got unlimited funds.

01:19:33.100 Yep.

01:19:34.140 Yep.

01:19:34.700 All right.

01:19:35.120 Bill O'Reilly, been a fascinating conversation with you today.

01:19:37.680 Looking forward to it next week.

01:19:39.000 Have a safe trip with Angela Merkel.

01:19:41.960 Yeah, I'll talk to you before I leave.

01:19:43.820 And you can give me some tips, Beck.

01:19:45.800 And in the meantime, I want everybody to go to BillOReilly.com for wisdom.

01:19:50.100 Wisdom.

01:19:51.920 Wisdom.

01:19:53.020 Yeah.

01:19:53.700 And it's found there.

01:19:55.040 Are you having a guest host next week?

01:19:56.960 No, no, no.

01:19:57.460 It's me.

01:19:58.440 It's me.

01:19:59.100 It's me.

01:19:59.540 Oh.

01:20:00.300 Oh.

01:20:00.840 Well, that's an interesting theory.

01:20:02.580 The wise man from Long Island.

01:20:06.460 BillOReilly.com.

01:20:07.500 Thank you very much, Bill.

01:20:08.580 All right, guys.

01:20:09.280 See you.

01:20:09.540 See you.

01:20:09.600 See you.

01:20:10.040 See you.

01:20:10.540 See you.

01:20:11.540 See you.

01:20:12.540 See you.

01:20:13.540 See you.

01:20:14.540 See you.

01:20:15.540 See you.

01:20:15.780 You know, there's only two people in this business that have been big names that can

01:20:22.040 take a punch, and it's Bill O'Reilly and Don Imus, and I love both of them for the same

01:20:26.620 reason.

01:20:27.660 Just people can't take punches anymore, and he can take them and give them back.

01:20:32.660 I just love it.

01:20:33.900 All right.

01:20:34.220 Let me tell you about SimpliSafe.

01:20:36.820 SimpliSafe is the best home security money can buy.

01:20:41.140 I truly believe that.

01:20:42.520 SimpliSafeBeck.com is not wired.

01:20:46.940 You don't have the contracts.

01:20:49.240 You're not locked in. 0.82

01:20:50.360 You're not being, you know, financially raped.

01:20:53.220 Let's be honest.

01:20:53.920 You're paying three to five times more if you go to one of these, you know, wired security

01:20:59.700 companies that are doing it the old style way. 0.94

01:21:01.860 You're being financially raped.

01:21:04.820 You own this system. 0.67

01:21:07.580 It's a fraction of the cost of the system itself.

01:21:11.800 And then on top of it, it's $14.95 or $0.99 a month for the monitoring.

01:21:17.760 That's unbelievable.

01:21:19.480 It's SimpliSafeBeck.com.

01:21:21.500 No contracts.

01:21:22.500 You're in control.

01:21:23.380 State-of-the-art equipment.

01:21:24.760 Keep your home and your family safe with SimpliSafeBeck.com.

01:21:28.040 You go there now, and you're going to get a free $100 HD camera to make sure you have

01:21:34.180 HD pictures of the bad guy should, God forbid, they ever get into your house.

01:21:38.940 It's SimpliSafeBeck.com.

01:21:41.280 That's SimpliSafeBeck.com.

01:21:43.900 I'm so excited.

01:21:45.740 Next week, this time, we're opening up our museum.

01:21:48.840 This one is really, really a risky museum for somebody in my position.

01:21:57.800 It wouldn't be risky for somebody else, but somebody's going to come in and misconstrue

01:22:01.480 and say something horrible about it, et cetera, et cetera, because it does talk about slavery.

01:22:06.920 And it's the name of this pop-up museum is 12 score and three years ago, a play on four score

01:22:14.840 and seven years ago that Abraham Lincoln talked about.

01:22:18.500 And it's the promise, the unfinished promise of unity.

01:22:23.600 What is slavery all about?

01:22:25.680 Is this really about racism?

01:22:27.260 Is it about black and white?

01:22:28.720 Is it over?

01:22:30.720 You know, we're now trying to discuss whether, you know, people like Abraham Lincoln or George

01:22:35.260 Washington were bad or good.

01:22:37.100 Well, is that what we should be doing, spending our time on that right now?

01:22:41.320 Because history is not just in the past.

01:22:44.120 History is being made by you today.

01:22:46.880 This is a great museum.

01:22:50.300 We've spent a lot of time and we're putting some chips up on the table of risk.

01:22:55.960 And we just want you to come and see it.

01:22:57.920 Call for tickets at 972-499-4747 or go to mercuryone.org and get your tickets.

01:23:05.840 I'll be giving tours.

01:23:06.700 David Barton will be giving tours.

01:23:08.120 All kinds of people.

01:23:09.280 Or you can just have a self-guided tour.

01:23:11.500 It runs until July 7th.

01:23:14.760 It starts next Friday.

01:23:16.300 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:23:22.400 I'm Hillary.

01:23:23.020 That's your 4-Minute Buzz.

01:23:23.820 And now here's Glenn and Stu with our last hour of the show.

01:23:25.960 Oh, thank you so much, Hillary.

01:23:28.660 I appreciate it.

01:23:30.180 We're excited to have you listening today.

01:23:33.140 Thank you for joining the blaze.

01:23:34.620 I want to remind you and thank realestateagentsitrust.com, which is, I guess, thanking me for putting money

01:23:40.980 into this program, too.

01:23:42.620 Wait a minute.

01:23:42.980 This isn't working out for me.

01:23:44.300 I've just figured this out.

01:23:46.160 Anyway, realestateagentsitrust.com is a company that I started really with my brother.

01:23:51.060 I mean, he's not really my brother, but we grew up together and he lived with us during

01:23:54.480 my high school years, so he's kind of my brother.

01:23:57.720 Robert is one of the – he was born to serve.

01:24:01.980 He really was.

01:24:02.840 He was a guy – he's a guy that is just the most helpful, caring guy I think I know.

01:24:11.260 And he's always been like that.

01:24:13.340 And so when we were trying to sell our house and he was trying to sell his, we were like,

01:24:16.480 this is horrible.

01:24:18.220 How do you find a great real estate agent?

01:24:20.480 That's what this is.

01:24:21.480 This is a service company that you don't have to pay for.

01:24:24.460 The real estate agent actually joins us and, you know, we make our money through the real estate agent.

01:24:30.880 You are the person that we want to serve.

01:24:33.940 And so go to realestateagentsitrust.com and we will help you find the right person that will serve you

01:24:40.180 to sell or buy your next house.

01:24:42.120 That's realestateagentsitrust.com.

01:24:55.940 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:24:59.880 Is there a scattered shower of journalism or is ABC only covering this because they want to knock Joe Biden out?

01:25:10.700 Either way, I'll take it.

01:25:13.020 Joe Biden and ABC exposing his son and Joe Biden to all of the really nasty connections with Ukraine and China. 0.69

01:25:24.140 Sure, they're a little late to the table, but I'll take it.

01:25:28.340 We go there next.

01:25:31.020 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:25:37.780 Stu?

01:25:39.060 Yes?

01:25:40.900 I mean, don't be so excited where you just jump right in and you're excited about things.

01:25:45.380 Well, I'm sure what you're about to tell me is going to be amazing.

01:25:48.460 I can cut you from this cruise at any time.

01:25:51.180 I don't think that's true.

01:25:52.360 Well, you've mentioned it to, I mean, I would assume 90 to 95% of people who have booked the cruise so far are there for me.

01:25:59.360 So you would be screwing all of them. 0.52

01:26:01.580 No, we just did a poll. 0.96

01:26:04.120 Nobody wants you to come.

01:26:05.240 Really?

01:26:05.860 Nobody wants you to come.

01:26:06.980 Wow.

01:26:07.120 This is a mercy thing for me.

01:26:08.600 Oh.

01:26:09.120 I can't believe, I can't believe that you're going to go to Israel with me.

01:26:12.260 I mean, that's crazy.

01:26:13.360 I'm pretty excited about it.

01:26:14.160 Will you be with me in Israel?

01:26:15.400 I mean, with you on the same ship?

01:26:17.880 Yes.

01:26:18.680 Actually, like, hanging out with you?

01:26:19.920 No.

01:26:20.320 Absolutely not.

01:26:21.040 And that was not stipulated at all as part of this agreement.

01:26:24.500 But I will be on the same ship, hopefully on the other side of it.

01:26:28.880 Yeah.

01:26:30.700 It's always safer to be with me.

01:26:32.660 It's safer to be with me.

01:26:34.060 Oh, yeah.

01:26:34.360 Because you're not a target at all.

01:26:36.020 And you want to go to Disney World with me, too.

01:26:39.600 Because Disney doesn't ever want me there.

01:26:41.680 They're like, you cause people angst.

01:26:44.080 They're standing in line.

01:26:44.820 They're like, oh, my gosh, that's Glenn Beck.

01:26:46.200 Ick.

01:26:47.960 So, you know, they hide me.

01:26:51.440 So you want to go to Disney with me because it's fantastic.

01:26:53.840 I keep calling them going, you know who you don't want wandering around in your park?

01:26:57.320 Me.

01:26:57.820 But I'm thinking about going.

01:26:59.300 Oh, dear God.

01:27:01.340 We could get you in and out of all the rides.

01:27:03.140 You can be in and out of this entire park in a day.

01:27:05.600 What do you say?

01:27:07.040 Okay.

01:27:07.440 Anyway, the cruise is going to be just remarkable.

01:27:13.080 You don't have to take your wallet out ever for anything.

01:27:16.320 No tips.

01:27:17.140 Nothing.

01:27:17.800 It's all inclusive, including the airfare.

01:27:20.700 This takes you to beautiful Italy.

01:27:23.160 I'm just saying.

01:27:24.600 And we're going to start with our families.

01:27:28.240 We're bringing our families.

01:27:30.240 And I hope you can figure out a way to bring yours as well.

01:27:33.760 And we're going to start in Venice.

01:27:34.880 Then we're going to Croatia, which I've never had any desire.

01:27:40.760 But if you watch the Game of Thrones, it's where, what is it, King's Landing was before it was destroyed by the dragons.

01:27:47.640 I hope they have rebuilt it.

01:27:49.220 They better have rebuilt that place because it was beautiful.

01:27:52.440 Anyway, when you see that, you're like, oh, my gosh, is that beautiful?

01:27:57.860 We're going to stop there.

01:27:59.020 We're going to go to Athens and to Israel.

01:28:01.720 So it's going to be amazing.

01:28:03.160 And Stu will be there.

01:28:04.220 I know we'll discount the ticket for that.

01:28:06.800 Stu will be there.

01:28:07.720 David Barton will be there.

01:28:08.740 I'll be there.

01:28:10.080 Bill O'Reilly is going to be there.

01:28:11.740 We're going to teach history all the way along.

01:28:14.020 And really, you don't even have to come and attend and do any of that.

01:28:18.440 You can just sit at the bar and drink with Stu or eat your face off with, well, Stu, me.

01:28:23.160 Come sail away dot com.

01:28:25.780 That's come sail away dot com.

01:28:27.540 Okay, so I was going to talk about Joe Biden and ABC because I think this is really important, but it's Friday.

01:28:46.140 And so I would much rather screw off just a little bit and tell you the new cancer scare.

01:28:52.920 Yes, there's a new cancer scare.

01:28:55.080 This is how bad this how bad things are in a country where I'm like, hey, this will be fun.

01:28:58.660 Let's talk about cancer.

01:28:59.700 Uh, the new cancer scare now comes from this environmental group that says all us all the cereal, all the cereal.

01:29:09.420 We found roundup in it.

01:29:10.520 We found roundup.

01:29:12.220 Uh, okay.

01:29:13.120 No, not the case.

01:29:14.080 And we started going over this earlier with Stu and I want to take it a step further.

01:29:19.360 But Stu, bring us up to speed on what they're actually saying and how much is required for you to eat and for how long before you'd have a chance, a minimum chance of getting cancer.

01:29:33.040 Right, because they they found trace amounts in cereal.

01:29:36.680 Now we're going to use the highest levels they found, which is honey nut Cheerios.

01:29:41.540 Um, the evil bee is is spraying roundup on your on your cereal for whatever reason and that's what they want you to believe.

01:29:50.080 And so the idea here is, of course, to sort of vilify roundup and say that it's basically everywhere going to cause cancer.

01:29:56.460 You've seen these, um, these big awards that they have passed out to, uh, to places all around the country.

01:30:02.560 And this is this is what you do when you want to vilify some big company and get big awards.

01:30:08.240 It's, you know, you might try going to regulatory, you know, you go to the government, you go to regulatory agencies, you go to scientists and try to get all this stuff proven when they don't come up with it.

01:30:16.720 You go to a jury and hope that they just feel really bad for the person who's sick.

01:30:21.560 Correct.

01:30:21.880 And then you, and so they, in California, they actually awarded $2 billion to a guy, a farmer who they say, uh, contracted cancer, uh, because of round, honey, nut Cheerios, not from a honey, nut Cheerios, just from roundup.

01:30:34.280 Generally, because of roundup, there are big dollar signs here, right?

01:30:38.740 And so obviously no one's going to win $2 billion in reality, but there's a lot of money on the line.

01:30:43.880 I want you to know when you're talking to Stu about roundup, this is a guy who's had a glass of roundup just to show you that it's, it's not bad.

01:30:53.100 He's had a glass of fracking fluid.

01:30:55.040 I don't know what's wrong with him, but I'm, I'm really only staying in this business just to watch him either explode or turn into a giant lung with cancer.

01:31:05.380 I'm not sure what's going to happen to him. 0.52

01:31:07.180 I'm trying to pitch a new show where all I do is drink another ridiculous, uh, you know, I am, I am all for that.

01:31:14.560 I'll produce, I'm executive producer.

01:31:16.380 I will fund that.

01:31:17.760 I don't know that I trust you exactly on this one.

01:31:19.560 Um, but, uh, so yeah, I mean, like I, I, first of all, I will say I did drink roundup and fracking fluid, uh, to prove that they were safe.

01:31:26.340 However, not delicious beverages.

01:31:28.420 I will tell you that you do not want to drink roundup.

01:31:31.580 It's not a good idea.

01:31:31.980 And you don't recommend it.

01:31:32.840 And Stu has done a lot of homework on, you know, what the real minimums are.

01:31:37.580 Now explain on what they found in Honey Nut Cheerios and all other cereals, apparently.

01:31:42.920 What they found and how they found it and the, and how they got to the minimum dose that you could have.

01:31:48.660 Right. It's important to understand that every single thing that you ingest is toxic at some level.

01:31:53.320 So there's nothing without risk, including water, right?

01:31:56.300 So you can have, we've seen this happen.

01:31:57.840 How many times people will have a water drinking contest and they die because there's a toxic level of water.

01:32:02.560 Your body can't take a certain amount.

01:32:04.480 That's everything on the planet is like that.

01:32:06.900 So what is the level here?

01:32:08.920 Um, uh, that is the, what they try to do is calculate what is the absolute minimum amount you could have that would create any risk of cancer or other harms.

01:32:18.660 Um, and the way they do this is of course not give it, you know, not, not overload individual people.

01:32:23.400 So they develop diseases because that would be completely unethical.

01:32:25.960 What they do is of course, go to, uh, mice.

01:32:28.860 Now mice of course are very famous for being much more likely to develop many types of cancer than humans, um, which is somewhat why they use mice, right?

01:32:38.520 They want to see if there's any risk they're going to catch it because it's going to happen to mice long before it happens to humans.

01:32:43.200 So they went through rather air on the side of safety, but you have to take that into consideration.

01:32:48.000 Now they're airing, they're giving something to an animal that is prone to get cancer.

01:32:54.900 So they air on the side of, of safety.

01:32:58.580 Yes.

01:32:58.920 Okay.

01:32:59.300 So there's your first, there's your first changing the dose, you know, because the dose is going to be a lot lower in a mouse than a human, but let's air on the safety side.

01:33:11.520 Right.

01:33:11.780 Got it.

01:33:12.040 So they start off with what is the absolute minimum dose that they can, they can find harm.

01:33:15.800 And this product's been around for a very long time.

01:33:17.540 They've tested it many, many times.

01:33:19.140 Um, and the dosage is somewhere in the area of about 140,000 milligrams per day.

01:33:25.080 Okay.

01:33:25.760 That is the, 140,000, thousand milligrams per day of glyphosate.

01:33:32.500 Okay.

01:33:32.660 So, and that is for what the mice could have or what we could have.

01:33:36.900 This is the, this is how, this is, this is the minimum amount that could show the damage in the mice.

01:33:41.940 Okay.

01:33:42.520 Now that is theoretically an adult mouse, right?

01:33:45.540 So they, they reduce that by about 80% for safe levels for children.

01:33:49.540 So the lowest, so the lowest level, uh, for, they say safe for children is about 30,000 milligrams per day.

01:33:57.120 Now they, what they do there, they don't say, okay, that's it.

01:34:00.260 We can give them 30,000 milligrams a day.

01:34:02.020 What they say is, okay, well, first of all, let's just divide that by 10 for safety, which they do and get it down to about 3000 milligrams per day.

01:34:09.260 Then wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, just for safety divide by 10.

01:34:13.780 Well, you don't want to come close to these lines, right?

01:34:15.780 Like there's not, there's not a, yeah, yeah.

01:34:17.520 So I agree with that, but we've already, we're already coming down because it's a mouse that has, is more susceptible to cancer.

01:34:24.280 Then we found out what gives it cancer, come down from that to 140,000 milligrams.

01:34:29.920 Then, uh, for children, we take 80% of that.

01:34:33.760 Now you're saying just an overall, no other reason, but for safety, reduce that by 10%.

01:34:39.500 By, or divide it by 10.

01:34:41.300 So yeah.

01:34:42.140 Divide it by 10.

01:34:43.140 You're taking essentially 90% off of that number.

01:34:45.960 And then they, they do this.

01:34:47.420 I mean, look, this, these are serious things.

01:34:49.040 Then they divide legitimately by 100.

01:34:52.140 So they divide it again.

01:34:53.040 So now you're down to 30 milligrams a day.

01:34:54.960 Now, remember the place where they saw the potential for increased harm was 30,000 milligrams.

01:35:00.260 And now they're saying 30 milligrams a day is what you can have safely of, of glyphosate.

01:35:05.420 Now this is the EPA estimate, the EPA standard for the United States.

01:35:10.000 It's different all over the world, but the EPA is, you know, the one that nationwide is kind of the guideline.

01:35:15.980 Now, if you kind of think of like, uh, California, right, Glenn, in general, um, when they have an EPA standard, what is, what is, what is

01:35:23.020 California do, right?

01:35:23.980 If there's a pollution standard, California is much more strict, right?

01:35:26.520 Like they're going to be on the environmentalist side of every one of these arguments.

01:35:29.940 So when the EPA says 30 milligrams a day is safe, uh, California says 1.1 milligrams is safe.

01:35:37.120 So they've lowered it by 94%, uh, from what the EPA says.

01:35:41.420 So the actual safe is about, uh, um, you know, right at the, right at the point to where you

01:35:48.660 have any more and you're, you're going to get cancer, 140,000 milligrams a day.

01:35:53.520 Then for children, they reduce that to 80 milligrams.

01:35:57.320 Now, so they say it's 80%.

01:36:00.960 So they have 30,000 milligrams a day, but that's for the adults as well.

01:36:05.760 So the adults are being held to that same standard.

01:36:08.480 Correct.

01:36:09.120 I mean, they use the, the, the, the, the 30,000.

01:36:13.020 Yes.

01:36:13.620 Okay.

01:36:14.040 So, so we're not even talking about adult.

01:36:16.160 We're talking about a child dosage.

01:36:18.560 Then just for safety, again, we reduce it 10%.

01:36:21.440 Then for safety, again, we reduce it.

01:36:25.060 Uh, we, we divide it by 10, right?

01:36:28.380 Or a hundred.

01:36:29.320 And then, and then California with no facts or figures, just, I don't know.

01:36:34.380 Well, what do you really feel comfortable with takes it from 30 milligrams to 1.1 milligrams.

01:36:39.420 And again, remember that's for children.

01:36:42.200 So the adults are held to the same standard, but that's 80% first off reduced because it's,

01:36:50.100 we're, we're gearing it for a child.

01:36:51.640 Yeah.

01:36:51.800 I think that you, that's a hundred percent, right.

01:36:53.780 With the one exception of it, if you have 140,000 milligrams a day, that does not mean

01:36:58.700 you're going to get cancer.

01:36:59.700 That is the very beginning of any sign that it shows up in anyone.

01:37:03.760 So like, it's not like you automatically get it above those levels.

01:37:06.600 This is, there's the first sign of anything happening at, to any of these mice at those

01:37:10.540 levels.

01:37:11.160 Okay.

01:37:11.940 And which is a mouse, which has a greater chance of getting cancer.

01:37:15.580 Okay.

01:37:15.820 Wait, wait, wait.

01:37:16.400 So that's the insanity.

01:37:17.580 That's the setup.

01:37:18.340 We're going to take a quick break.

01:37:19.540 We're going to come back.

01:37:20.300 Now we're going to show you how much cereal does it take to actually, uh, now be claimed

01:37:28.660 that will give you cancer. 0.97

01:37:30.060 How much cereal do you need to eat?

01:37:32.240 Honey nut Cheerios for this to be any kind of danger for you at all.

01:37:37.240 We'll do that in a second.

01:37:38.640 First, let me tell you, there's a black market for frequent flyer miles.

01:37:42.400 Least half a dozen online markets have listings created by criminals who have stolen frequent

01:37:49.180 flyer miles and they're trying to resell them.

01:37:51.040 Now this happens because people don't check up with their frequent flyer miles very often.

01:37:55.060 So, you know, if you're, you're only traveling every few months or so, uh, you're just sitting

01:38:00.380 there with this dead account and they take those and then they sell them on the black

01:38:03.120 market.

01:38:03.600 This is one of the things that life lock warns you against that you're never going to,

01:38:07.900 you're not going to find this.

01:38:09.080 You're just not, you're not looking.

01:38:10.960 You can't look at all the things that you have.

01:38:13.540 Somebody has to, and that's life lock.

01:38:15.460 They're the best in the business.

01:38:16.620 They can't stop all identity theft.

01:38:18.140 They can't monitor all transactions, but I will tell you, they've been doing it.

01:38:21.500 I think they were the first in this industry and they're the best in this industry.

01:38:44.420 We pause for 10 seconds station ID.

01:38:48.140 Okay, so we're down to the California standard.

01:39:02.060 California is telling us all what we can eat and cannot eat.

01:39:05.500 We're down to the California standard of you can have 1.1 milligrams of Roundup, what, every day?

01:39:15.760 Yeah, the ingredients.

01:39:16.640 Or in a bowl of cereal?

01:39:17.400 Ingredients.

01:39:18.140 The ingredients.

01:39:18.340 So 1.1 milligrams per day of glyphosate is what California says is safe.

01:39:24.160 And it's the most stringent standard you're going to find.

01:39:28.000 Okay.

01:39:28.920 So how many milligrams are in a bowl of cereal?

01:39:32.780 Well, it's difficult to kind of break that down because it's actually going to be calculated in the parts per billion.

01:39:38.020 So, like, you know, it's a few hundred.

01:39:40.800 So there's not even a 0.1 milligram.

01:39:45.000 Right.

01:39:45.240 It's much, much, much smaller than that.

01:39:47.340 So let me give you this breakdown of how you can understand.

01:39:50.600 This is so insane.

01:39:52.040 So first of all, again, we're just taking this environmentalist anti-Roundup organization at their word that they found these things.

01:40:00.300 It's not a peer-reviewed study.

01:40:01.960 They didn't release their full methods.

01:40:03.980 They didn't release their full data.

01:40:05.160 So you're going to this level of just trusting this organization.

01:40:08.480 And the main problem with this is whether you care about cereal, whether you could be the most anti-Roundup person in the world and don't necessarily want to have a glass of it with breakfast like I do.

01:40:18.100 But the problem is every media organization reported this as if it was fact.

01:40:23.640 Study finds cereal gives you cancer risk.

01:40:27.980 So, like, I mean, it's dozens of stories.

01:40:30.200 No, not a peer-reviewed study at all.

01:40:31.240 Not peer-reviewed.

01:40:31.900 They didn't release any of the data.

01:40:33.720 No.

01:40:33.880 So here is how this works.

01:40:38.240 So if you take the highest cereal that they found, which was Honey Nut Cheerios, what would you have to do to get to the California level of safety?

01:40:46.640 How much cereal would you actually need to eat?

01:40:49.660 You would need to eat approximately 80 bowls of cereal per day.

01:40:55.700 Oh, well, per day.

01:40:57.720 Now, 80 bowls of cereal per day is a significantly high amount of Honey Nut Cheerios.

01:41:03.400 Now, I can eat.

01:41:04.740 I can eat.

01:41:05.580 And I like cereal.

01:41:07.040 But I don't think I could eat 80 bowls a day.

01:41:09.460 Now, Jeffy, maybe.

01:41:12.040 Maybe he could do it.

01:41:13.080 Maybe.

01:41:13.280 For a day.

01:41:13.820 Maybe he could do that.

01:41:14.720 I will say, though, he has to be a little more aggressive than that.

01:41:17.240 And this is going to be a little bit of carb loading for most people.

01:41:19.460 But you are going to have to eat 80 bowls of cereal a day.

01:41:23.620 Hold on.

01:41:24.180 Hang on just a second.

01:41:24.740 My wife is in the kitchen.

01:41:26.140 Can you run to the pantry?

01:41:27.020 Grab a deal.

01:41:28.580 How many bowls of cereal are in a box?

01:41:31.360 Oh, that's a good question.

01:41:32.000 How many servings?

01:41:32.480 How many boxes of cereal?

01:41:34.520 A lot.

01:41:35.440 I have Honey Nut Cheerios.

01:41:36.820 Come here.

01:41:37.140 I need cancer. 0.93

01:41:37.960 Come here. 0.65

01:41:38.980 Oh, right here.

01:41:39.640 Okay.

01:41:39.820 So here's a good-sized family box of Cheerios.

01:41:43.080 Amount per serving.

01:41:44.760 Serving size is only three-quarters of a cup.

01:41:47.120 So that really kind of reduces.

01:41:49.920 Servings per container, 22.

01:41:51.800 22.

01:41:52.320 So you'd need to eat four boxes, basically, of family-sized Honey Nut Cheerios every day.

01:41:57.580 Every day.

01:41:58.240 Every day for 80 years.

01:42:01.160 Now, if you were to.

01:42:01.800 Only for 80 years.

01:42:02.940 For only 80 years.

01:42:03.680 So if you live to 90, there's five years on each side.

01:42:06.420 You don't have to eat the Honey Nut Cheerios.

01:42:08.060 But that gets you to the California standard.

01:42:10.720 Right.

01:42:11.120 And what that California standard means, again, if you were to do that, 80 bowls of Honey

01:42:16.100 Nut Cheerios every day for 80 years, it would give you a one in 10,000 chance of harm.

01:42:23.180 So of every 10,000 people who ate all of that cereal, one of them may have ill effects

01:42:30.440 other than the fact that you'd be really fat and there'd be other problems.

01:42:33.120 So if I had, no, it's good cholesterol.

01:42:36.360 If I had Honey Nut Cheerios, me and 1,000 people, and we had 80 bowls a day our whole

01:42:43.420 life, or at least for 80 years.

01:42:45.880 Right.

01:42:46.060 So for 80 years, 80 bowls of cereal, that's just a few boxes every day, one of us may

01:42:58.220 have a chance of developing cancer.

01:43:00.400 Yeah, and I will say.

01:43:01.440 But that's according to California.

01:43:03.740 Right.

01:43:04.400 That's not even, that's way disconnected from the mice.

01:43:06.920 Right.

01:43:07.240 And so it's, and that's, again, it's one in 10,000, not one in 1,000.

01:43:09.700 And the other thing I will say is one trick here that gets really difficult is to eat

01:43:15.200 80 bowls of cereal for 80 years, but also remain a child because you have to stay a

01:43:21.280 kid to get to those levels.

01:43:23.580 So, okay.

01:43:23.880 So wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

01:43:25.140 So how many, so if you're not reducing it by 80%, how many bowls of cereal do you have

01:43:31.580 to have as an adult?

01:43:32.760 Right.

01:43:32.980 I mean, so I think looking at this and you're back, this is not in the study, I will say.

01:43:37.340 I'm just backing into these numbers at this point, but if you were to eat, let's say

01:43:40.700 2.4 million bowls a day, I think you'd have a legitimate chance.

01:43:46.940 So that's bringing us to the rats.

01:43:49.560 That's bringing us to the rat, which is more susceptible to cancer than humans.

01:43:53.340 Right.

01:43:53.760 That is the safe level that the rats could have.

01:43:56.780 Right.

01:43:57.360 And not develop cancer.

01:43:58.900 Right.

01:43:59.280 Yes.

01:43:59.660 And so you would have to eat how many?

01:44:02.180 2.4.

01:44:02.780 2.4 billion bowls a day.

01:44:05.920 I think, or 6 million.

01:44:08.000 No, you mean a million.

01:44:08.920 Yeah, sorry. 0.53

01:44:09.360 I don't want to be ridiculous here.

01:44:10.420 2.4 million bowls a day. 0.97

01:44:11.380 Yeah, you don't want to be ridiculous. 0.68

01:44:12.480 Nobody could eat 2.4 billion bowls. 0.94

01:44:14.520 No.

01:44:14.660 But 2.4 million bowls of cereal every day for 80 years.

01:44:19.240 And I want to even have to point out to you that that's a hell of a lot of fiber.

01:44:22.440 Man, there's going to be a lot of issues going on separate from the cancer at this point.

01:44:26.340 But let's just say you can have porcelain chairs.

01:44:31.100 Right.

01:44:31.320 You know what I'm saying?

01:44:32.360 All around your breakfast table, just a porcelain chair.

01:44:34.620 And here's the thing, I think that's the biggest issue here.

01:44:37.080 And we talk about political reporting all the time.

01:44:39.320 The reporting on food and health in this country is way worse than the political reporting.

01:44:44.900 Because this is like, I mean, you think that reporting on Donald Trump is bad.

01:44:48.960 There is no way that a news organization should have picked up this study.

01:44:54.880 There should not have been one article written about it. 0.98

01:44:57.600 It's so nonsensical and ridiculous. 0.85

01:45:00.200 The science is completely on the other side. 0.94

01:45:02.620 They always talk about scientific consensus.

01:45:05.120 It's totally on the other side of this issue.

01:45:08.800 And yet with this, even the organizations, these advocacy organizations that come up with these scare studies to get people to click on them.

01:45:16.700 These organizations sit back and report it as if it's fact with no context whatsoever to line their pockets and then expect us to believe them on global warming consensus.

01:45:27.920 Expect us to believe them on their political reporting, on the reporting of what happened behind the scenes of what Donald Trump is doing with Iran. 0.98

01:45:35.420 We're supposed to just trust them on all of this other stuff when they churn this crap out daily. 0.99

01:45:41.680 Daily. 0.72

01:45:42.320 It's this bad all the time when it comes to reporting on food and health and science.

01:45:47.460 Let me tell you this.

01:45:48.260 Let me tell you this, okay? 0.98

01:45:50.020 Hate monger.

01:45:50.600 I'm glad we have this report because I was singing about eating 2.4 million bowls of cereal a day.

01:45:58.640 And can you imagine the carbon footprint to make all of that?

01:46:03.040 Oh, just the honey. 0.90

01:46:03.800 We'd kill all of the bees. 0.99

01:46:05.680 We'd kill all of the bees. 1.00

01:46:07.700 We would, the tractors that would be needed just for my bowls of cereal. 0.98

01:46:12.140 Well, it would destroy the earth.

01:46:15.160 And I might, if I was a mouse, get cancer.

01:46:18.940 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:46:23.720 All right.

01:46:24.280 Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

01:46:27.320 It is Norton Security.

01:46:29.040 And here's the thing about Norton.

01:46:31.700 Norton is a name that we have trusted for a long time to keep our, you know, all of our devices safe.

01:46:37.860 Make sure there's no viruses on them.

01:46:39.520 They are good at making sure that nobody's coming in through the back door, right?

01:46:44.740 They're the guys that you can actually trust to actually give you a VPN, a virtual private network on all of your devices.

01:46:52.780 It's really, really simple to use.

01:46:54.680 You download an app, you put in your passcode once, and then all of your devices are connected.

01:47:01.280 And so you're always on a virtual private network, which basically means you don't have to ever worry about somebody like Facebook.

01:47:09.520 Tracking you and going in and finding everything about you.

01:47:14.100 Also, it helps when you're sitting at the coffee shop and you're using public Wi-Fi.

01:47:17.460 That's like, you know, that's like eating in a public restroom.

01:47:21.220 That's not a good idea.

01:47:23.000 Norton.com slash VPN.

01:47:25.220 Price starts at $3.33 a month.

01:47:27.740 If you sign up for a year, it's Norton.com that you can trust.

01:47:30.820 Norton.com slash VPN.

01:47:32.580 This portion of the broadcast brought to you by Honey Nut Cheerios.

01:47:36.480 Delicious, sweet.

01:47:37.660 No, it's not actually.

01:47:38.380 But now all I want to do is eat Honey Nut Cheerios.

01:47:44.520 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:47:46.940 It's not hyperbole to say that Joe Biden was the most corrupt, or at least in the top three, most corrupt politicians we've ever had as vice president or president.

01:47:58.880 And we've had some pretty corrupt people.

01:48:01.500 I mean, you look back at the, you look back at some of the administrations, even the Grant administration and the Johnson administration, not this Johnson, but the one in the 1800s.

01:48:11.380 Wildly, wildly corrupt.

01:48:12.880 Jackson was taking land from the Indians and then telling his friends, hey, take some money and take some of my money and be at the land office at nine o'clock.

01:48:26.120 There might be something going on.

01:48:28.560 He went from one of the poorest presidents to the rich, one of the richest people in the nation in his, in his term.

01:48:36.420 So we've had really corrupt people.

01:48:38.500 Joe Biden and his family are literally the top two or three most corrupt we've ever had.

01:48:48.520 And when this is exposed, if it's ever exposed, it will bring him down.

01:48:54.720 Well, it's interesting to me.

01:48:56.120 Nobody has done this.

01:48:57.340 We did a two hour special on this and you can see the first hour on YouTube.

01:49:02.280 It's Joe Biden.

01:49:03.460 What do you search for?

01:49:04.040 Just Joe Biden in Ukraine.

01:49:05.760 Glenn Beck, Joe Biden, Ukraine.

01:49:07.040 Yeah, you can find it that way on YouTube.

01:49:08.900 Yep.

01:49:10.080 And please subscribe to my YouTube channel while you're there.

01:49:13.120 But when you when you watch this, the Ukraine is nothing compared to what happened to China. 0.69

01:49:20.040 And that's the second hour of that broadcast.

01:49:22.900 Well, we thought nobody else would do it.

01:49:26.000 Well, somebody has.

01:49:27.440 And it's ABC television.

01:49:28.720 And ABC News has just done a report on China and Ukraine with Joe Biden and his son.

01:49:38.520 And it's pretty damaging.

01:49:40.820 I mean, it shows, huh?

01:49:42.360 I guess we're not the only ones that can find this truth about Joe Biden.

01:49:46.740 Now, the question is, why are they doing this?

01:49:50.320 Are they actually finding journalistic integrity?

01:49:53.380 Or are they just trying to make sure Joe Biden is not the candidate?

01:49:58.640 Yeah, I think that's a really interesting question.

01:50:00.380 I mean, you know, look, I appreciate that they've done this and we should listen to some of this report.

01:50:04.880 It's good that they're they're following up on this.

01:50:06.980 It's just you get a real sense from the media right now.

01:50:09.680 They are going to do everything they can to make sure Joe Biden is not the nominee.

01:50:13.400 They're Hillary Clinton-ing him right now.

01:50:17.280 It's interesting because, I mean, we think of Clinton getting good media coverage because we're comparing it to the media coverage that Trump gets.

01:50:24.240 But, I mean, Hillary Clinton got terrible media coverage if you compare it to the coverage that Obama received.

01:50:28.540 Or really any nominee that I can remember in my lifetime on the Democratic side.

01:50:32.160 They did not like her.

01:50:33.260 I agree.

01:50:33.740 Biden here.

01:50:35.140 Now, you know, the thing with the problem with the Hillary stuff, though, is there was no one to knock her off for. 1.00

01:50:40.080 Right. Like you're going to get Bernie Sanders, who probably wasn't going to win anyway here.

01:50:44.140 They believe they can get someone.

01:50:45.340 They can get a someone who's much more like an Elizabeth Warren or Kamala Harris or Pete Buttigieg or whoever else.

01:50:50.640 They think there's another path here to another another candidate.

01:50:54.040 Correct.

01:50:54.640 And so the question is, you know, because they are hitting him hard, not only with with this report that will play for you here in a second, but also just the way they're they're covering his controversies.

01:51:06.020 I mean, at times, you know, CNN's coverage of a Joe Biden offhanded remark sounds like Fox News's coverage of a Joe Biden offhanded remark.

01:51:14.260 Like they are being very critical.

01:51:15.600 They're not letting him down.

01:51:16.640 They're giving lots of attention to people like Cory Booker who are criticizing him.

01:51:20.300 It is not normal of the way that the mainstream media acts.

01:51:24.240 So here is the report ABC News after we've, you know, kind of dove into this Ukraine stuff.

01:51:32.280 Normally, this would be Glenn Beck's conspiracy theory, right?

01:51:35.540 Like that's the way this always would have been.

01:51:38.020 Oh, if he becomes the president, it or the nominee, it will become Glenn Beck's conspiracy theory again.

01:51:45.040 It will go back.

01:51:45.400 You'll never see it covered again.

01:51:47.080 So let's listen to a little bit of the ABC coverage.

01:51:51.300 At issue was Hunter Biden profiting off his dad's work as vice president.

01:51:55.660 And did Joe Biden allow it?

01:51:57.300 We're talking about millions of dollars in at least two countries.

01:52:01.200 In 2014, Ukrainians sick of corruption revolted.

01:52:06.280 Vice President Joe Biden went to Kiev to help the new government.

01:52:10.240 You have to fight the cancer of corruption.

01:52:14.940 But then something strange happened.

01:52:17.080 Just three weeks later, a Ukrainian natural gas company, Burisma, accused of corruption,

01:52:24.540 appoints Hunter Biden, seen here in their promotional videos, to their board of directors,

01:52:29.980 paying his firm more than a million dollars a year.

01:52:33.160 Hunter, a lawyer who had just been discharged from the Navy Reserves for testing positive for cocaine.

01:52:39.360 Mr. Hunter Biden.

01:52:40.680 He had served on other boards, but had no known experience in Ukraine or natural gas.

01:52:47.080 We went to Kiev and found even among Joe Biden supporters in Ukraine, Hunter's hiring was troubling.

01:52:54.080 How do you judge what Hunter Biden was doing?

01:52:56.700 I think that Hunter Biden did a very bad thing and he was very wrong.

01:53:02.080 He allowed his name to be abused.

01:53:05.740 And Ukraine wasn't the only country where Hunter Biden's business and his father's diplomacy as vice president intersected.

01:53:12.520 It also happened in China.

01:53:13.580 Now, this is a lot of resource they've put into this.

01:53:16.540 They sent the reporter there.

01:53:17.820 They've got multiple interviews.

01:53:19.100 They talked about, too, how, you know, you get to the situation where, you know, you're going into a country that you're there to stop the corruption.

01:53:28.240 And three weeks after you show up, your son gets a multimillion dollar deal in a field that they have no experience in.

01:53:34.660 And what they just did in about two minutes, we did in 22 minutes.

01:53:40.580 So this is the Disneyfied version of of what that scandal was.

01:53:45.800 Yeah.

01:53:46.020 I mean, this is so this is like scandal.

01:53:49.500 Really, really, really, really, really, really light.

01:53:51.920 It's like, well, we're not really sure when you actually produce the documents and you show the timetable and everything else.

01:53:57.640 It's stunning.

01:53:59.000 Stunning.

01:53:59.420 It's stunning.

01:54:00.220 And, you know, I don't expect ABC News to spend an entire show on it like and you spent multiple shows on it.

01:54:05.240 But I mean, the fact that they're covering it at all and showing you the real truth here.

01:54:09.460 Again, you're going to you're a big company that natural gas.

01:54:11.800 You're going to put someone on your board, pay him millions of dollars that has no experience, has no experience in your country and just got discharged from the military because he was doing cocaine that you're going to do that.

01:54:21.200 That makes absolutely no sense.

01:54:23.000 So then they went on to look at China.

01:54:25.220 This video shows Chinese diplomats greeting Vice President Biden as he arrived in Beijing in December of 2013.

01:54:34.760 Right by his side, his son, Hunter.

01:54:37.240 Less than two weeks later, Hunter's firm had new business, creating an investment fund in China involving the government controlled Bank of China.

01:54:45.920 With reports, they hope to raise one point five billion dollars.

01:54:50.220 Hunter still plays a role in the fund.

01:54:52.140 His lawyer says his stake is worth about half a million dollars.

01:54:56.460 Both Hunter and his lawyers say he never discussed any of his overseas work with his father.

01:55:01.780 But even a critic of the current president and his children's business dealings says this.

01:55:07.020 He should have encouraged his son to not take these positions.

01:55:10.560 Biden's campaign team told us that the vice president acted at all times in a manner consistent with well-established executive branch ethics standards.

01:55:19.500 One person who did not want to talk about it, Joe Biden.

01:55:23.580 Mr. Vice President, what's your take on that?

01:55:25.320 Was there a conflict of interest there?

01:55:27.040 Was there a clear conflict of interest?

01:55:30.360 By the way.

01:55:31.000 Now, in response to our questions, the Biden campaign for the first time is announcing if he's elected,

01:55:35.420 he will invoke a new ethics policy on his first day in office that would empower White House lawyers to monitor for any types of conflicts of interest.

01:55:43.000 Now, Hunter Biden did not want to comment on camera.

01:55:45.780 He says he was brought into Burisma, that Ukrainian company that was facing the corruption charges,

01:55:50.180 to help with its transparency and corporate responsibility.

01:55:55.180 It's amazing.

01:55:56.000 So this is their chief national affairs reporter that they sent not only to Ukraine to follow this,

01:56:03.060 but also all over the United States to get multiple attempts to get comment from Joe Biden.

01:56:09.280 It wasn't just that one where he's shouting at him.

01:56:11.580 He's not only shouted at him, he's shouted at him in multiple different places.

01:56:15.280 And, you know, it's an amazing thing because even they report like this is very standard practice in Ukraine and China,

01:56:20.460 where like you have a big figure and they'll put the sun on the board.

01:56:24.680 But it's the exact type of corruption that Joe Biden supposedly was going over there to fight.

01:56:30.440 And the fact that he utilized it to enrich his son, allegedly, is pretty damning, I think.

01:56:36.580 And the exact kind of corruption that everybody hates about capitalism.

01:56:39.600 I mean, I just don't see that as crony capitalism at all.

01:56:43.080 I mean, no, it's not.

01:56:44.580 No, no, no.

01:56:44.860 But it's crony capitalism.

01:56:46.780 The reason why capitalism is hated is because people think that is capitalism.

01:56:51.800 And it's not.

01:56:53.180 It's crony capitalism.

01:56:54.880 And it's what our government is doing all over the board with Google and Amazon and everybody else.

01:57:01.020 One hand washes the other.

01:57:02.680 That's what people don't like.

01:57:04.480 And if Joe Biden is the guy that people say, oh, well, you know what?

01:57:08.080 He's going to be fair.

01:57:09.080 This guy is he will usher in the oligarchs because I think we're almost there now.

01:57:15.940 We are going to become a really corrupt oligarchy because that's that's the new way of doing business in Russia and China.

01:57:24.780 And everybody who's anybody wants that.

01:57:27.860 We don't want that.

01:57:29.040 I don't want that from Donald Trump.

01:57:31.700 I don't want that from Ronald Reagan.

01:57:33.160 I don't want that from Joe Biden.

01:57:35.080 I don't want any of that.

01:57:36.640 But that's the way socialism is run.

01:57:39.600 And especially this new state capitalism.

01:57:44.640 That's what this is all about.

01:57:46.860 This again, if you just heard this for the first time, this is nothing.

01:57:50.780 This was like a joke of a report compared to what really happened.

01:57:56.360 When you see it edited that tightly from ABC, it doesn't seem like a big deal.

02:00:20.240 So you should listen to and subscribe to the podcast.

02:00:24.400 Glenn does every week a an interview with somebody really fascinating.

02:00:29.100 It's like a long form interview.

02:00:30.140 There's dozens of these now.

02:00:31.240 You can binge them.

02:00:32.300 This weekend has Blake Harris on and he wrote a book that was supposed to be a book about technology.

02:00:37.060 And he's a guy who's a liberal, but he's writing just about technology, interesting stories about technology and the kind of starting of virtual reality.

02:00:44.420 And the guy who invented it is a 19 year old guy in a trailer.

02:00:48.020 And what started, though, is that sort of story about the foundation of virtual reality turned into a story that had this really amazing thing with Donald Trump and the way technology destroys conservatives who are prominent in the world of Silicon Valley.

02:01:03.960 Listen, this is a guy who knows everyone in Silicon Valley.

02:01:06.340 And he said there's only two people I know in Silicon Valley who are publicly Trump supporters or who are willing to say that they're Trump supporters, Palmer Luckey and Peter Thiel.

02:01:14.900 And that's obviously a problem for a lot of reasons, because I think that there's more than two that are just were unwilling to say it.

02:01:20.380 But it's interesting to me that now here we are in 2019, less than two years after he said that, and both Peter and Palmer are out of Silicon Valley.

02:01:27.240 And it's not because they don't like the geography there.

02:01:30.340 It's because there's other stuff going on.

02:01:31.940 So he posts his support for Donald Trump.

02:01:39.860 And it's not crazy, is it?

02:01:42.500 When he first comes out and says, I'm for Donald Trump, it's not, he's not like...

02:01:45.980 Well, it was crazy back in 2011, because who would have...

02:01:48.080 Yeah, yeah, I know.

02:01:48.620 But I mean, when this story really starts to take, he's sold his business to Oculus.

02:01:53.360 And he's not like, you know, in the Trump gear and, you know, walking down Facebook, you know, with flags and going, you know, build a wall.

02:02:01.280 He's actually, he is much more like how I remembered politics when I was growing up, where I remembered, I once asked my home economics teacher, which I would suspect is not really a class anymore, even though I thought it was very useful to learn those skills.

02:02:16.440 And I remember asking her who she voted for in the election.

02:02:19.180 I guess I was in eighth grade, it must have been 96.

02:02:21.240 And she got mad at me, like, that's a very personal thing to ask.

02:02:24.140 We don't, you don't ask people about politics.

02:02:26.180 And that's sort of Palmer's mentality, which once he was, you know, it was determined that he was a villain, everyone thought, oh, that's him being sneaky.

02:02:33.580 He doesn't want to talk about his politics.

02:02:35.020 No, that's just, he doesn't think that matters.

02:02:37.000 He was there to do virtual reality stuff and do cool tech stuff.

02:02:40.480 That was irrelevant.

02:02:42.640 But, but yeah, he had no qualms with, with publicly being a Trump supporter, not long after the escalator introduction of Trump.

02:02:51.360 You know, one of the things I find fascinating that it's not in this edition of the book, but I will put it in a later edition because I'm still getting information, more information.

02:03:00.020 Fortunately, no contradictory information, but I'm still getting other cool details that I want to include is that in, in April of 2016, Palmer went to a Trump rally in Costa Mesa.

02:03:09.640 And the reason I know that is not just because he told me, but because there was an NBC video talking about protesters outside of the rally.

02:03:17.260 And Palmer was one of the people interviewed as like, you're at this Trump rally.

02:03:20.000 What was it like?

02:03:20.780 Or what was the protesters like?

02:03:22.120 So, so he had no problem being.

02:03:24.480 He wasn't hiding.

02:03:25.620 Yeah, he wasn't hiding.

02:03:26.320 Exactly.

02:03:26.640 He wasn't hiding it.

02:03:28.900 He knew this was going to be on the news, potentially millions of people to potentially know him, but like he had no problem hiding it.

02:03:34.220 And then we flash forward to five months later when he makes this $10,000 donation to an organization and he does it anonymously, which people then say he did it because, you know, he was sneaky about it or he was trying to cover it up or whatever they say.

02:03:47.460 And you have to ask yourself, well, then what changed over the five months?

02:03:50.480 And the answer is Peter Thiel.

02:03:51.920 The answer is that in, you know, in between that was the Republican National Convention in 2016.

02:03:57.680 Peter spoke there and came out as a Trump supporter, as a gay man, Trump supporter.

02:04:02.800 And and people on Facebook want so many people on Facebook wanted to get him fired from the board of direct board at Facebook for for the only reason was just that he was a Trump supporter.

02:04:14.680 Amazing story how they target conservatives.

02:04:17.160 It's happening all over Silicon Valley.

02:04:18.860 You can hear the entire interview for free at Glenn Beck dot com.

02:04:22.680 Get it there or wherever you get your podcast.
