We're in Texas and things have been, I mean, I wouldn't mind somebody stealing my home
00:00:08.540
Ah, geez, I got to move to someplace warmer like Hawaii.
00:00:12.720
Right now, home title lock, somebody can take your home and unfortunately, you don't know
00:00:20.200
And when they show up at your door, that's when you really have a problem because you

Home title lock will protect your home's title.
00:00:30.980
All the guy has to do is just, or woman, I mean, it could be a woman stealing your house
00:00:35.280
too, forge their signatures on a quick claim deed saying that you sold the house, then
00:00:41.760
Only home title lock is there at the gate of all of our titles.

What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:49.220
Can't use water today, at least in my hometown, because it could be poop water.
00:02:01.700
Electricity grids in Texas are down like crazy.
00:02:05.100
We're having a gas shortage, a natural gas shortage in Texas.
00:02:16.080
This is a 40-year storm, and it is like living on another planet.
00:02:21.760
It's really like, I mean, we're making California look good today.
00:02:27.800
We're going to talk a little bit about that because it doesn't affect the entire country.
00:02:31.500
But boy, oh boy, is it a wake-up call yet again?
00:02:42.300
Biden has pulled 65 Trump administrative laws out, which is going to dramatically affect employment.
00:03:06.740
So Megan lives in California, and in her mid-30s, she was in a horrible car accident,
00:03:16.180
left her with shooting pains down her neck and her back.
00:03:18.780
It got so bad that she was going to a chiropractor and an acupuncturist six times a week.
00:03:24.720
That's when she heard about Relief Factor, decided to give it a try.
00:03:27.500
Well, within two days, her pain began to subside, and within a couple of weeks, she was back to normal.
00:03:37.440
Megan considers her discovery of Relief Factor nothing short of a miracle.
00:03:43.480
Living with pain like that is no way to go through your life.
00:03:53.500
It was developed by doctors, and 70% of the people who try Relief Factor go on to buy more because it works.
00:03:58.460
So try the three-week quick start and see if it works for you.
00:04:16.040
We welcome Pat Gray into the studio, one of the brave that attempted to weather the roads, which are not so bad.
00:04:27.840
The problem with Texas is we don't have any snow plows.
00:04:38.620
From Texarkana, Texas down to Brownsville, Texas is the same distance from Texarkana, Texas to Chicago.
00:04:51.280
And we've got four snow plows, which not really a help when you have snow all over the state.
00:05:04.260
Now, disregard the fact that this happened 40 years ago, you know, when it was global cooling.
00:05:17.560
We're expecting another four to six inches of snow tomorrow.
00:05:25.640
The last time we had weather like this was 10 years ago.
00:05:54.660
We have our gas and coal plants that make energy.
00:06:00.960
They're also offline because of they're frozen.
00:06:05.740
We don't insulate things like they do up north because we don't ever have this weather.
00:06:11.940
I think maybe Texas should reevaluate that just a little bit.
00:06:22.400
Yeah, the sewage treatment plant went down and I guess some pipes burst, et cetera, et cetera.
00:06:28.140
So now our drinking water may be mixed with poop water, which I love.
00:06:40.200
Fortunately, I gave up on tap water a long time ago.
00:06:43.340
Although you cook with it, you know, so you're going to have to-
00:06:51.500
So let's talk about the news outside of Texas, which quite honestly makes me want to talk
00:06:58.980
about the news inside of Texas a little bit more.
00:07:02.180
Puerto Rican statehood looks like it is on its way to happening.
00:07:08.040
Puerto Rico has held six non-binding referendums on its status, including becoming a U.S.
00:07:16.500
However, the residents there have most recently voted in favor of statehood.
00:07:24.660
This has, I guess, a lot to do with Hurricane Maria, which caused over 3,000 deaths and the
00:07:33.880
worst natural disaster to hit the island to date that we know of.
00:07:43.300
So why not just push it into the federal government?
00:07:49.900
I mean, I actually have less of a problem paying for Puerto Rico than I do for California.
00:07:55.860
I mean, I have a real problem paying for California.
00:07:59.120
If California and New York and Illinois start pushing all of their state debt into the Fed,
00:08:09.180
I didn't live there when I did live in New York.
00:08:13.060
I voted against it because I knew it was insanity.
00:08:17.060
Anyway, it looks like the current governor, who is part of the new progressive party.
00:08:26.360
This is the new progressive party, is very, very excited about this.
00:08:32.820
And it looks like the Democrats are going to push it through.
00:08:49.280
And don't forget, Washington, D.C. could also become a state.
00:08:59.200
You've got two super Democratic states about to be added.
00:09:01.600
Here's a state that they're going to make sure doesn't become a state.
00:09:16.420
But there is a movement now in Northern California that is saying they want to break free.
00:09:22.920
They don't feel that they are being represented at all by the California legislature.
00:09:32.840
Do you remember, Pat, were we still together in the 90s when I read some things from, I think it was Dugan, Alexander Dugan, that said the United States was going to break up into five districts.
00:09:50.180
And when he was asked, how do you know that, he said, by 20, what was it, 2020 or 2015, something like that, the United States would be in a civil war.
00:10:04.260
And we would eventually break up into five different districts.
00:10:09.120
And when asked why he knew that, he said, because we have people on the ground, meaning they have people pushing for that.
00:10:23.160
Unfortunately, we also have something really, really great happening in the military now.
00:10:34.460
The Pentagon is not focusing on the Islamic State or the threat from China or the threat from any place else.
00:10:45.180
They are now doing everything they can to look at the threat from within.
00:10:52.240
President Joe Biden is continuing to not focus on China.
00:10:58.380
In fact, strengthen China while promoting social justice inside the Pentagon.
00:11:05.600
His first military-related executive order was to overturn Trump's transgender policy, which I think we were all fighting for.
00:11:15.660
We were like, this fairness has got to be upheld here.
00:11:21.160
And somebody needs to free all the transgenders from the oppression in the military.
00:11:27.220
Lloyd Austin, his defense secretary, the first African-American to serve in that position, Austin vowed during his confirmation hearing to rid the military of racists and extremists.
00:11:39.620
Now, I wasn't aware that there were racists and extremists in the military.
00:11:52.420
So he wants to get rid of racists and extremists.
00:11:58.480
Pat, when you go looking for something and you know that it's there, do you generally find it?
00:12:07.620
You know, it's like, have you ever worked at a place where a consultant comes in and the management hires a consultant and says, look, here's what the problem is.
00:12:16.480
The problem is, is we've got X, Y and Z and all the employees are like, that's not the problem.
00:12:24.700
What are the consultants usually find a B and C or X, Y and Z?
00:12:49.540
Was notified by the FDI 143 times of investigations of former and current military members in 2020, 68 of the times pertain to domestic extremist cases.
00:13:05.960
With the vast majority, former military, many unfavorable discharge records, and only one fourth or 17 had anything to do with white nationalism.
00:13:26.920
What's really interesting in this story is it doesn't tell me what the others were.
00:13:32.560
The military still has not given even the House Armed Services Committee, the Oversight Committee in Congress, a definition of extremists.
00:13:55.820
The problem here is that they are going to find what they want, and we're now going to politicize our military.
00:14:08.340
On another front, the now-president Joe Biden has pulled 65 pending Trump administration executive orders.
00:14:19.620
Several of the withdrawals strike down orders that would protect American jobs by tightening immigration restrictions, eliminating proposed oversight regulations on how China-backed Confucius Institute operate on campus.
00:14:41.640
Right now, under current law, outgoing aliens released from custody can seek legal employment.
00:14:57.640
The Trump orders were protecting American workers.
00:15:01.180
Between what he's doing with China and what he's doing with immigration, we have some serious problems coming our way.
00:15:12.100
But the good news is the Biden administration over the weekend said, quote, this administration will not wait for the next mass shooting.
00:15:46.300
That means if you use the weapon and you kill someone, someone can sue the gun manufacturer.
00:15:55.840
That's like using a car and suing General Motors because you went on a walkway and drove over a lot of people.
00:16:08.320
Now, if the car has automatic pilot and you couldn't turn it off and it caused you to drive, then you could sue GM.
00:16:16.120
But if you chose to drive on a sidewalk and kill a lot of people, you can't sue GM.
00:16:25.220
Under Biden, you'll be able to sue the gun makers.
00:16:33.000
They are going to make it impossible for Americans to be able to defend themselves.
00:16:45.320
By the way, Swalwell has said in the wake of the Capitol riot, we need a 9-11 commission, a white nationalism task force.
00:16:55.620
Holy mother of everything that is good and sacred.
00:17:16.200
January 6th is the day that we'll all sadly remember.
00:17:18.960
I think we have to take an approach that we took after September 11th to root out white nationalism.
00:17:27.540
Why didn't we have a 9-11 commission after they tried to shoot all of the Republican congressmen?
00:17:42.560
By the way, Swalwell is he said that he is sure that God herself.
00:17:55.360
So he knows that God is a female, which I think we can't say that he's a hypocrite on that because he was with Christine Fang.
00:18:05.500
And while he was doing the Fang Bang, we heard him scream, oh, God, oh, God, oh, God, many times.
00:18:11.260
So maybe God's not only a female, but also Chinese and a spy.
00:18:16.520
American Financing NMLS 182334 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org
00:18:25.420
17 million homeowners are still missing out on a lower mortgage rate right now.
00:18:34.640
That's hundreds of savings, hundreds of dollars every single month.
00:18:43.300
You're throwing it into the pockets of the bankers.
00:18:47.120
Make sure you refinance your loan without resetting your mortgage.
00:18:52.020
Don't you don't have to reset the term of your mortgage.
00:18:54.740
And if you roll in high interest credit cards, you could be saving a thousand dollars a month or more.
00:19:01.240
So if you're paying three or four percent for your mortgage right now, please call American Financing at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, AmericanFinancing.net.
00:19:31.240
By the way, if you use Instagram, that's a Facebook product.
00:19:35.380
They have announced policing of private direct messages.
00:19:39.920
So now if you're direct messaging somebody in private, the hate speech crackdown police will be reviewing all of your private messages.
00:19:53.980
And this is going to come if you have Google Mail.
00:20:01.820
The algorithms already reading your mail and you're already being sorted right now.
00:20:07.780
But I think that's good that Instagram can and look at everything that we're we're doing.
00:20:19.800
Yeah, because if anybody knows, you know, what's hateful.
00:20:29.040
I think the Pinterest people are probably a little head ahead of Instagram.
00:20:41.860
By the way, Netanyahu has claimed that we have great ties.
00:20:48.880
But Biden still hasn't called Prime Minister Netanyahu.
00:20:55.220
You'd think that as a pretty important ally, you know, but maybe the phones are out, you know.
00:21:01.920
In Israel or Jen Psaki couldn't even really respond to whether or not Israel was an important ally.
00:21:11.260
She had a hard time figuring that one out when she was asked.
00:21:18.680
Then we have Bitcoin at a near record high of $50,000 a coin.
00:21:36.540
How I wish I would have bought a bunch of them at 36 cents.
00:21:44.440
Well, I remember we discussed it really seriously at $1,000.
00:22:22.220
Citibank is saying that it could go up to $150,000 in the next 12 months.
00:22:28.680
I mean, if you don't have money in Bitcoin, even $500, you don't have to buy a full coin.
00:22:45.560
Ever since he tried Rough Greens for the first time, my dog Uno is a completely different dog.
00:22:52.600
All the time, I'm getting emails from people who are saying they had exactly the same experience.
00:23:10.440
She just turns up her nose if it's not sprinkled on top.
00:23:13.060
Have you seen a difference in your dog besides that?
00:23:16.000
She acts like a puppy again, where she was getting a little lethargic, but now she's
00:23:22.880
Goes and gets her toys and brings them to you for the throw.
00:23:31.100
And he's bringing his big Kong ball all the time with him and wants to play all the time.
00:23:37.820
I want you to try Rough Greens now for your dog.

00:24:11.720
I am so glad that we have rejoined the Paris Accords so we could get rid of all of this
00:24:17.540
global warming and global cooling that is going on.
00:24:24.940
A French court has declared that France is guilty of failing of meeting its own climate
00:24:33.020
So France is not, you know, living up to the Paris Agreement.
00:24:38.780
But, you know, they probably can't read it in a different language.
00:24:44.580
So they were the ones who brokered the international treaty, committed to reducing greenhouse gases
00:24:51.480
by 40 percent by 2030 and carbon neutral by 2050.
00:24:58.460
Unfortunately, it looks like they're not going to be able to make that.
00:25:08.780
They have to pay now one euro, one dollar and 20 cents, one euro.
00:25:15.200
This, according to the court, for moral damage to each of the associations behind the lawsuit.
00:25:23.000
And that could I mean, I'm I'm suing them because I'm so upset about it.
00:25:28.600
So it could I could, you know, just that could be hundreds of euros.
00:25:37.260
Meanwhile, China, who is has declared that they will be carbon neutral by 2060.
00:25:51.280
They built three times as many coal plants in 2020 as the rest of the world combined.
00:26:06.240
And they were like, let's cut it down to just three times the rest of the world combined.
00:26:10.780
And the voice of America news has has observed.
00:26:17.140
Now, remember, when you hear voice of America, you know, freedom is on the other side of that microphone.
00:26:25.520
And they said that this would seem to undermine China's short term climate goals.
00:26:33.640
But yeah, it would see according to voice of America, it would seem to to undermine their
00:26:44.460
But President Xi Jinping has promised to make his country carbon neutral by 2060.
00:26:52.600
So voice of America would like us to know that they're going to make up for that in the long run.
00:27:04.420
They have a total under construction of 88.1 gigawatts of power.
00:27:30.660
I mean, they could go back to the future at any point, 88 times.
00:27:42.760
That's why they can promise that they are going to be able to do it in the future because
00:27:58.920
Yeah, our infrastructure just doesn't seem to be what we thought it was.
00:28:04.460
Did you see Germany is deciding that maybe we need to do more oil and gas energy because
00:28:14.780
what we're using, you know, the solar and wind, well, all our solar panels are frozen and covered
00:28:23.340
with snow and all, like Texas, all our wind turbines are frozen solid.
00:28:36.220
Because I mean, maybe, but I don't remember ever.
00:28:42.920
I don't have to look into that because I don't remember it happening.
00:28:46.640
I mean, I wasn't around in the, you know, in the 1500s, but Jeffy was.
00:29:01.520
Yeah, this is interesting because one of their scientists, Professor Schwartz, explained the
00:29:10.500
And he said, with this supply of wind and photovoltaic energy, which is solar energy, we
00:29:17.400
have between zero and two or three percent energy from wind and solar.
00:29:25.220
You can see it in many diagrams that we have days and weeks in the year where we have neither
00:29:32.660
wind nor PV photovoltaic, especially this time.
00:29:40.320
And there are oftentimes when the wind is very minuscule.
00:29:43.500
These are things I must say that have been physically established and known for centuries.
00:30:01.700
You're saying that people have known that there would be days and days and maybe even months
00:30:15.420
In all the World War II movies, it looks so toasty and warm and tropical, doesn't it?
00:30:22.220
We would be there and you'd be like, why is everybody in the German, remember the little
00:30:27.540
short shorts that the German officers used to wear?
00:30:39.140
I, sometimes because it was the Uber race, you thought they're hot.
00:30:43.960
And you just thought people meant that as they were good looking and no, no, they were actually
00:31:02.800
I have, I have, uh, I have solar panels and you know when they don't work?
00:31:16.060
Um, as long as you have a direct line of sight to the giant flaming ball of gas up in
00:31:29.080
I mean, I got up just the other day and I looked out and I was like, the sky is on fire.
00:31:34.860
And they said, no, that's a flaming ball of gas of some sort.
00:31:38.900
And as long as you, and I said, I'm against gas.
00:31:45.060
So all the dinosaurs in space that died collected in that flaming ball in that flaming ball and
00:32:02.580
We are, we are getting, uh, deeper and deeper into the, uh, you know, the green thing, which
00:32:11.400
Um, I, I will tell you that, uh, uh, Jaguar has announced that by what is it?
00:32:41.040
I believe Jaguar is a GM product or is it Ford now?
00:32:47.860
Uh, Jaguar, Jaguar Land Rover's luxury Jaguar brand will be entire.
00:32:57.300
And we'll launch E models of its entire lineup by 2030.
00:33:04.320
The high performance E type model in the sixties and seventies.
00:33:08.440
Jaguar faces the same challenge as other car makers, making his transition to electric vehicles
00:33:13.160
while retaining its feeling and power of luxury combustion engine model.
00:33:17.660
Uh, I mean, there, I'm telling you, you're not going to be able to own a fossil fuel car.
00:33:29.040
And what is the deal with the, can Jaguar go further than 300 miles on a charge?
00:33:37.840
That's, that's the deal is nobody, including Tesla has fixed that problem.
00:33:43.660
You got to stop and recharge for 45 minutes or an hour.
00:33:51.600
I mean, you don't have to really leave your house.
00:33:56.080
Sometimes I'll, I'll take off and go 700 or 800 miles.
00:33:59.920
Uh, to see other people that you don't want to see other people, family, friends.
00:34:07.060
Experts are now saying that in the United States, we will not fully be vaccinated, fully
00:34:34.560
That's 15 days to flatten the curve or they may have said 15 years.
00:34:39.880
I don't even, uh, may I just suggest you look for, um, vampire space bunnies, uh, because
00:34:47.240
They are coming and they won't be a surprise when they come.
00:34:50.540
Uh, at least to those of us who have been watching the news, a lot of people haven't been
00:35:04.800
Every day we can be, uh, working to make our country a better place.
00:35:18.360
Because it's taking money out, out of what you would otherwise be spending with big mobile
00:35:23.380
companies like Verizon, which give money to terrible things like planned parenthood.
00:35:28.120
Instead of putting it in the, uh, in companies that donate there, uh, would you, would you like to back a company that is putting it into the first amendment, the second amendment, fighting these battles every day?
00:35:44.380
That's where they take some of their profits and they pour it there.
00:35:47.620
This is a company that was started by, uh, former military guys that were all patriots and they figured, you know, we, we've got to have, there's got to be a better way to do all of these things and protect our constitution.
00:36:04.060
It's rolling strong, get free premier activation where they set the phone up for you and you get a special gift with the offer code back same service, lower price and the values you believe in there on our side, the side of the constitution, patriot mobile.com slash back that's patriot mobile.com slash back or call 972 Patriot 972 Patriot or patriot mobile.com slash back.
00:36:34.100
So I finally understand why we need to, uh, route out these extremists and I understand now who these extremists are.
00:36:43.760
Um, there is, um, there's a, uh, new, uh, uh, study out by the Washington post and, um, they have found that people are isolated alone.
00:37:00.860
Uh, and that's why there's more extremists, uh, out there right now.
00:37:05.180
Um, because a lot of these people are just craving human interaction, but the Washington post would like to point out since ancient times, pandemics have spurred sharp turns in political beliefs, spawning extremist movements, wave of mistrust and wholesale rejection of authorities.
00:37:22.600
Uh, nearly a year into the coronavirus crisis, Americans are falling prey to the same phenomena, historians, theologians, and others.
00:37:30.320
Experts, uh, say that this is, uh, uh, a situation where nearly one in five said they believe in Satan, worshiping child enslaving elites seeking to control the world.
00:37:42.600
And, uh, shutdowns have paralyzed the economy in the first months of the pandemic.
00:37:47.760
And, uh, and, and when that happened, there was a sharp increase on searches online for extremist and white supremacist, uh, supremacist materials online.
00:37:58.360
Now, I don't know about you, but when I was shut in, the first thing I thought was, how can I join the Klan?
00:38:05.060
Um, and I think, I think a lot of people, I mean, you know, let's drop the dog whistle here and, uh, you know, stop just hiding behind.
00:38:25.640
Uh, British study found that the pandemic boosted radicalization globally, uh, as people found more time to delve into extremist arguments.
00:38:35.200
Um, you know, when we were working, we didn't have a time.
00:38:41.400
Um, some of these insecurities predated the pandemic.
00:38:45.280
Many of those arrested in the Capitol riot owned businesses or worked white collar jobs.
00:38:54.000
So, uh, and a Washington Post analysis of public records found that nearly 60% of the people facing charges had prior money troubles.
00:39:21.840
Um, and many are involved in these things because they have been, uh, clobbered, uh, quoting the
00:39:28.680
Washington Post, clobbered for the virus related shutdowns.
00:39:34.080
And, uh, then they talked to a, uh, then they talked to a couple of, uh, uh, religious experts.
00:39:41.160
Richard Land, president of Southern Evangelical Seminary, said in a healthy society, the government,
00:39:46.340
the church would say this is nonsense and people would believe them.
00:39:49.280
Um, but, uh, you know, that, uh, check on extremist impulses by the church is not there.
00:39:55.800
Uh, over the past year, the pandemic was a constant undercurrent as Americans took to
00:40:01.440
the streets to protest racial injustice, police brutality, and president Biden's victory.
00:40:08.340
Oh, man, as we took to the streets to protest racial injustice.
00:40:27.100
And there's still, uh, 6,000 troops in D.C. through the fall now, they're saying.
00:40:32.660
So, well, that was not only an attack, uh, as an insurrection plot, uh, and as an impromptu
00:40:38.340
meetup, uh, but it was also a social gathering, uh, for people who were defending their idea of nationhood.
00:40:49.360
Let me talk to you about, uh, American financing.
00:40:52.780
American financing is your opportunity to save hundreds, if not $1,000 or more a month, if
00:40:59.460
you are paying, hmm, three, four, five percent, uh, interest on your mortgage, uh, and if
00:41:09.820
you are paying, uh, even three percent on your mortgage and you've got a lot of credit card
00:41:16.660
You can roll that debt into your mortgage without resetting the term of your loan, get
00:41:22.340
a lower payment, and save hundreds, if not thousand dollars plus every single month.
00:41:32.520
It's at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or Americanfinancing.net.
00:41:38.680
All right, the Texas energy grid and the Green New Deal, the Green Movement.
00:41:48.240
What's happened to Texas and how can we possibly make fun of California?
00:41:55.020
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and
00:42:34.660
Texas is going through something historic right now.
00:42:38.440
We haven't had temperatures in Texas, uh, like this since, what, 1970s?
00:42:46.560
It has been a very, very bad few days in Texas, and it's about to get worse.
00:42:53.060
We have sewage treatment plants that are now, the pipes are bursting.
00:42:59.180
We, uh, we, a lot of the state is without any power.
00:43:03.320
Three and a half million people in Texas have been without power for a while, and it's not
00:43:14.420
How can we possibly make fun of what's going on in California if we get hit by extreme weather?
00:43:22.580
And is it getting worse in Texas because of the push to green energy?
00:43:41.240
Ah, those just, those words make you just all, they fill them, they make the inside of you
00:43:48.760
I would say warm, but it's more of a hot that you're feeling when I say, ah, your timeshare.
00:43:55.240
But, uh, listen, you are sending so much money, uh, out to that stupid timeshare that you
00:44:10.080
Do you know, do you know that you can't get a loan if you're paying on a loan for your
00:44:15.000
Did you know that, uh, banks won't accept it because you don't owe anything?
00:44:19.020
Do you know what the average, uh, interest rate is on a timeshare?
00:44:32.400
Nobody's going to, nobody's going to buy it from me.
00:44:34.820
I have too much self-respect to con somebody else into buying it.
00:44:40.520
Timeshare termination team is here and they will get you out of it and they're not going
00:44:47.580
Timeshare termination team, get the process started.
00:44:54.660
Don't get stuck with another year of timeshare.
00:44:57.100
You'll get 20% off when you terminate your timeshare.
00:45:00.700
Make sure you tell them I sent you and you get that 20% off discount.
00:45:08.640
Or visit them online at timeshare termination team.com.
00:45:14.760
They will give you 100% of your money back if you aren't out of that timeshare.
00:45:25.180
These are people who do it and they'll give you every dime of your money back if it doesn't
00:45:45.840
The president and founder for the center for industrial progress, the author of the moral
00:45:52.320
case for fossil fuels, Alex Epstein is with us now.
00:46:01.780
Um, I wanted to, uh, talk to you a little bit about what's happening in Texas.
00:46:06.640
There is no way we should be having these problems in Texas with the, with our own power
00:46:23.780
So, I mean, this is something I've been warning about for a while in September, 2020.
00:46:29.660
So I live in California when the California blackouts were happening.
00:46:32.640
I warned on Twitter that there are similar things happening in Texas.
00:46:37.200
And so a blackout is an extreme event, but this blackout is not unprecedented.
00:46:43.640
Texas has been having what I call industrial blackouts a lot.
00:46:46.880
They call it demand management, but it basically means when there's not enough power, they have
00:46:51.740
their industrial or they'll call it curtailment.
00:46:53.920
They'll have their industrial, uh, projects stop.
00:46:57.000
You know, they'll cut off power to industrial people.
00:47:00.560
So what's happened here is the lack of ability to meet demand has just been so extreme.
00:47:06.300
And there are some unexpected events that everyone is seeing it, but it's important that this
00:47:14.560
And this is something that's happened in California.
00:47:17.180
And the fundamental reason, whatever else is going on is the insistence on using unreliable
00:47:23.280
wind and solar energy instead of reliable energy from coal, nuclear, natural gas.
00:47:33.280
We know that those sources, because there's issues of failures in Texas, and we'll talk about
00:47:37.980
But we know for a fact that coal, gas and nuclear can work under any weather conditions
00:47:44.300
So whatever is going on in Texas, it's not that coal plants don't work, gas plants don't
00:47:49.320
Nuclear plants is a combination of specific mismanagement and non-preparation in Texas.
00:47:53.920
But the main thing is too much attempt to rely on unreliable energy.
00:47:58.320
And that takes away focus and funding from the reliable energy and for making it resilient.
00:48:08.580
Some people are like, well, that's what happens.
00:48:11.900
There are times that I feel like I'm living in Syria.
00:48:16.220
However, I don't expect the state to spend oodles of money protecting for something that
00:48:22.060
happens once every even, you know, when it comes to salt trucks and everything else.
00:48:29.520
This is something that happened, you know, about every 40 or 50 years in Texas.
00:48:34.060
So I cut some slack, but I don't understand why our coal plants are down.
00:48:48.100
Well, so there's I mean, we I don't think the ERCOTs, ERCOT is the so-called Reliability
00:48:56.160
So it's not easy to tell exactly what's going on.
00:49:00.320
And so one thing that they'll tend not to talk about is it's possible there's been some
00:49:06.260
So when demand was exceeding supply, they didn't curtail demand early enough.
00:49:12.920
It can be that specific plants aren't resilient enough.
00:49:16.480
It can be that the fuel infrastructure, there's something off with that in terms of delivery of
00:49:21.100
And this is something that I think that will emerge.
00:49:23.580
But again, these are all things that are handled everywhere around the world.
00:49:27.460
They're not inherent in coal, gas and nuclear, whereas what you see with wind and solar is
00:49:33.320
they went completely out to lunch when they were needed most.
00:49:36.920
So no matter how, even if there had been no freezing of the wind turbines, wind would have
00:49:41.020
still been useless during very large portions of the situation.
00:49:44.880
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, why, why, why would wind turbines when there
00:49:55.340
Well, well, there, there were frozen some of them, but there wasn't wind, there wasn't
00:50:00.920
So when there has it, so a talking point for the other side has been, oh, well, not that
00:50:06.180
I got, but if you look at the recent data over the last several days, there have been
00:50:13.000
So the part of the thing is they call the capacity, they call the maximum possible wind,
00:50:21.020
So they say, oh, we have 32 gigawatts of wind and everyone brags about that.
00:50:24.460
But when the going gets tough, you had one, two or three gigawatts of wind.
00:50:29.040
So again, they're always, people always like to talk about the peak, but the real thing
00:50:38.860
And that's why they add so much cost, because you always have to have the unreliable infrastructure
00:50:46.720
So some greens are blaming not enough gas being online.
00:50:51.880
And that's because the green screen is a scheme requires it to be offline.
00:50:57.060
So we can get more electricity from wind, right?
00:51:01.540
Everything is engineered around trying to maximize the amount of unreliable wind that you're
00:51:07.680
So the whole way the grid is working normally, that's very wasteful, is you're cycling the
00:51:14.900
If you had a reliable energy infrastructure, which we used to have around the country, you
00:51:19.040
would just have a whole slate of reliable plants.
00:51:21.920
And then when you had a lot more demand, you could just ramp a lot of the reliable plants
00:51:26.700
But here, what Texas is trying to do is they're trying to minimize the number of reliable plants
00:51:32.500
And this is why one of the public utility people said, and I think in 2019, like, hey, we've
00:51:41.400
Texas is notorious in electricity circles for trying to get away with the lowest reserve
00:51:45.780
margin possible, which means the smallest margin for error possible.
00:51:49.560
It's gone down dramatically because they've been trying to cut prices and use wind.
00:51:57.040
We didn't maintain our power lines enough because we didn't want to raise prices even
00:52:02.260
more after we had inflated them with green energy.
00:52:05.260
If you don't focus on reliability, you're going to lose reliability.
00:52:09.240
So in northern climates, when it gets cold like this every single year, how do they avoid
00:52:15.540
Are they doing less green energy than Texas is?
00:52:21.180
I mean, so one is just they have better specific policies for their plants, and that can take all
00:52:26.120
sorts of measures, but they just figure it out.
00:52:27.700
I mean, these are, you know, these places, Texas, even in bad weather, is not as bad as
00:52:33.640
I mean, obviously, if places in Russia, they're using these kinds of places, places in cold
00:52:39.160
Now, what's happening, though, it's important with what I call the unreliables, so the solar
00:52:44.220
It is possible to have a certain amount of them along with the reliable.
00:52:48.920
So people in the Midwest are saying, hey, look, our wind timbers are working.
00:52:52.940
And it's true that you can spend money and they don't necessarily ice.
00:52:56.120
But the point is they're adding costs and they don't scale because, again, you have
00:53:01.280
to pay for the unreliable energy infrastructure and the reliable energy infrastructure, plus
00:53:06.680
it's really inefficient to run a grid that way because it's like stop and go traffic for
00:53:11.380
the reliables, plus you wear them down a lot more quickly when you move them up and down.
00:53:16.000
But the real thing to notice is you cannot rely on the unreliables.
00:53:20.320
And what we have as a country is a policy that's trying to get us 100 percent dependent
00:53:26.820
The real lesson of Texas is not that wind turbines froze.
00:53:30.560
It's that wind and solar cannot keep us warm and powered in the winter.
00:53:35.260
And so these Green New Deal type plans are a complete fiasco.
00:53:38.520
Everybody should be asking Biden, what the hell would Texas do under your situation?
00:53:42.620
How the hell would they get power if you're going to have nearly 100 percent wind and solar,
00:53:47.100
which were totally out to lunch when they were needed most?
00:53:50.700
I mean, we're now buying the power, I believe, from Mexico, which is what?
00:53:57.720
So are these when people say the Texas grid, we're fine because we have our own grid in
00:54:06.120
Have the progressive policies just pretty much dismantled any positives we had with that?
00:54:15.620
So this is I mean, I was really scared of what was going to happen with this storm.
00:54:21.900
But one thing I thought would be good in terms of a lesson is Texas does have this isolated
00:54:29.060
But what it really illustrates is the problem of relying on unreliable energy, because in California,
00:54:36.060
even, you know, we import 25 percent of our electricity, which at a given time can be 40 percent
00:54:47.360
But what happens is they start trying to have more and more unreliables.
00:54:57.800
And we didn't have enough electricity and we couldn't get it.
00:55:01.380
So everyone is trying to play this game of get it of chicken with how much unreliable can
00:55:08.960
And Texas is a good illustration because it's this self-contained world.
00:55:14.820
And so we need to learn that the whole U.S. cannot be like Texas.
00:55:19.020
And again, Texas is something like 20 percent wind.
00:55:24.820
The Biden plan says 100 percent carbon neutral grid by 2035.
00:55:35.400
And the biggest lie, the biggest giveaway is none of these people support nuclear.
00:55:45.560
It's just Alex Twitter dot com slash Alex Epstein.
00:56:05.420
So the existing 32 gigawatts, it went down to one gigawatt when it was needed.
00:56:10.440
And then 12 new gigawatts of solar and solar was almost completely useless.
00:56:14.460
So and then five new gigawatts of gas, which is basically to handle all the ups and downs
00:56:21.560
And that is a mild day at the beach compared to what Biden has planned.
00:56:28.460
So I want you just to tell us what America looks like with the Biden plan and what states
00:56:35.580
and people locally should be should be doing, because the first thing that came to my mind
00:56:48.200
I'm reliant on way too much stuff, way too much stuff.
00:56:52.760
And when you can't when you can't weather a storm for three days, four days without these,
00:57:01.360
these aren't rolling brownouts or rolling blackouts.
00:57:08.040
Now they're just now we're just having full blackouts.
00:57:10.200
Uh, and, uh, that, I mean, that just is not in a, in a, you know, 21st century world that
00:57:24.140
Back in just a second, uh, more on the green energy movement and what that means to you coming
00:57:31.640
There's a scam out there now where you get a text message claiming that you can access
00:57:43.360
If it happens to you, they're trying to get you to log in to a fake website and share your
00:57:49.280
If they're really lucky, your credit card number will go in as well.
00:57:54.040

00:58:50.100
He is the president and founder for the Center for Industrial Progress, the author of The Moral
00:58:57.400
Alex, so what does America look like with the way the Biden administration is heading even
00:59:08.820
Yeah, so it's important that because of the dynamics I mentioned, this whole 100% carbon
00:59:14.240
free grid, particularly without nuclear, like that's not going to happen.
00:59:17.880
The whole net zero by 2050 thing is impossible, but that doesn't mean we don't need to worry
00:59:21.640
about it because as we're seeing with Texas, even small steps in that direction are disastrous.
00:59:27.380
So what you see is just more and more of these blackouts, of these brownouts.
00:59:33.040
And one thing I want to highlight is what happens to industry?
00:59:36.260
What lesson does industry take when they keep getting blacked out?
00:59:39.960
And they get blacked out a lot more than much more than we do as consumers.
00:59:45.360
And I really want to highlight the strategic thing that's happening right now with China
00:59:51.060
China uses five times more industrial electricity than the US, five times.
00:59:59.260
A lot of that electricity is used to build unreliable solar panels and wind turbines for us.
01:00:03.980
Of course, we don't mostly build them here because they have to be built with cheap energy,
01:00:08.540
which means they have to be built with fossil fuels.
01:00:10.860
They're not built with solar panels and wind turbines, obviously.
01:00:13.740
So you have China making this very strong strategic move to get us to unilaterally disempower and for them to empower.
01:00:22.600
And then they say, oh, we're going to go net zero by 2060.
01:00:26.620
They get praised by this guy, Larry Fink, the head of BlackRock, who almost runs the financial world right now.
01:00:31.540
And so you just see this amazing strategic play where they are using fossil fuels to get ahead.
01:00:37.940
They have record oil imports. They had a five-year high in coal production.
01:00:43.900
Again, five times more electricity than we are.
01:00:45.800
So they're disempowering us, empowering themselves, and then selling us these almost useless solar panels and wind turbines.
01:00:55.040
So unfortunately, the expression is useful idiot for China.
01:00:59.500
And I think that security thing should scare us just as much as everything else.
01:01:06.940
Because honestly, you have Bank of America saying that they're going to start looking at loans.
01:01:15.320
If you're not green, you may not be able to be fitting into their portfolio of businesses they can loan money to.
01:01:29.340
And Jaguar just came out and said they'll be fully electric cars by 2025.
01:01:36.940
And nobody's talking about the increase in electricity that is needed if we all go to electric cars.
01:01:45.340
Yeah, so I think that it's crucial to have these moments as teaching moments.
01:01:51.780
So this is maybe the crucial teaching moment of 2021 to change the narrative on this.
01:01:58.820
And I mentioned that on Twitter, I posted a very comprehensive explanation.
01:02:02.140
More broadly, recently, I created a website called energytalkingpoints.com that takes all of these issues and gives you very quick, well-referenced statements on everything.
01:02:10.260
And that's part of my overall goal of just changing the narrative, where we move from this focus on unreliable energy and climate catastrophe to one where we recognize that if we use the best sources of energy, namely fossil fuels and nuclear, we can keep making the world a better and better place to live.
01:02:28.860
But we're talking about one degree in 170 years.
01:02:34.300
Fossil fuels are making the world a better and better place to live.
01:02:40.060
And mandatory government-controlled green energy is making the world a worse place to live.
01:02:44.420
So those are the two narratives I just keep hitting over and over and over.
01:02:47.960
And eventually, people are going to see that narrative corresponds to reality.
01:02:51.680
And the other narrative is just unreal and destructive.
01:02:57.120
Give me the name of that website you just created again.
01:03:08.000
Alex Epstein, the president and co-founder for Center for Industrial Progress.
01:03:15.800
You know, I have to tell you while I have a second.
01:03:19.200
My family and I have been so concerned about others that don't have heat.
01:03:24.180
Others that don't have all of the stuff that we might have.
01:03:28.140
The suffering that is going on in Texas for green energy should wake people up alone.
01:03:40.920
So, I thought, you know, about writing the entire list of things I'd rather do than get involved with buying and selling of a house.
01:03:48.500
But I realized pretty quickly that would take me probably for the next 40 years to do that.
01:03:55.340
Among them was bungee jumping into a ball pit filled with venomous snakes.
01:04:02.200
Taking a bullet to the shoulder just to see what it feels like.
01:04:06.480
Those were just some of the things that I'd rather do than buy or sell a house.
01:04:13.920
If you have the right real estate agent in place, you're not going to have all of those hassles.
01:04:21.060
You need somebody who knows the market, knows how to attract the buyers, knows what your house and your new house really should go for.

01:05:08.500
We talked to their new interim CEO coming up in just a second.
01:05:20.340
Pandemics have spawned extremist movements since ancient times.
01:05:25.860
I want to go a little further in depth on this and read it to you because it shows the thinking of the elites and where they're headed.
01:05:38.100
Adam Krigler, quoting the Washington Post, used to feed his YouTube following a politics-free diet of chatter about aliens, movies, skateboardings, and video games.
01:05:51.920
Now he devotes much of his talk show to his assertion that mask mandates are an assault to personal freedom and that Democrats somehow stole 2020 election from Donald Trump.
01:06:07.060
Well, I mean, you know, skateboarding should have brought a huge audience.
01:06:17.000
Yes, because everyone's life is affected by the mask mandates.
01:06:22.040
And yes, the mask mandates are an assault on personal freedom when you mandate them.
01:06:30.380
Going to the United States, the people of the United States and say, look, we all need to wear masks.
01:06:38.240
The American people would not have had a problem with it.
01:06:42.420
We were wearing masks when they told us not to wear masks.
01:06:47.000
It's the mandate that is an affront to personal freedom.
01:06:52.640
And the Democrats somehow stole the 2020 election.
01:07:00.260
The Washington Post is so deep up their own ass, excuse the expression, that they can't see any light anymore.
01:07:08.160
All they see is intestines and their own crap that they've been eating.
01:07:18.300
The pandemic has made more people want to blame someone else because they've lost their jobs or they're lonely, Krigler said.
01:07:28.460
Ian Bain, for years a campaign professional, has sworn off politics and launched a career in real estate.
01:07:38.580
Then COVID hit and he helped launch No Mask Nevada, organizing a dozen rallies against masking because he said the government was inflating the danger of the coronavirus.
01:08:11.960
Spain said our I don't know why we're surprised that there's more extremism.
01:08:17.420
Now people came out to rallies because they craved human interaction.
01:08:20.760
OK, that's not why people are not craving human interaction.
01:08:26.380
So they're like, let's go protest the government.
01:08:31.820
Yes, our kids are killing themselves because they crave human interaction.
01:08:44.600
I contend there is more extremism on the part of the federal and some state governments.
01:08:51.360
It is extremist to say 15 days to flatten the curve.
01:08:57.020
And now we are approaching a one year anniversary and we have put all of these people out of work.
01:09:06.040
Not the people who say, hey, maybe I should be able to feed my family.
01:09:15.060
Don't let them use this extremist talk against anyone.
01:09:28.380
Since ancient times, pandemics have spurred sharp turns in political beliefs.
01:09:35.860
OK, Pat, have you changed your political belief?
01:09:39.380
Have you had a sharp turn in your political beliefs?
01:09:48.400
It's still the cornerstone of everything you believe?
01:09:56.040
It's that the extremists in Washington and these so-called public private partnerships in these so-called civil rights groups.
01:10:10.040
They are now jamming down everyone's throat the extremist thought that men can have babies.
01:10:18.960
That our girls should be able to play sports with guys on the team who are claiming they're girls.
01:10:27.400
Or how about the extremist idea that the banks should get bailed out, but not the American people?
01:10:36.380
The federal government has a right to tell you to close your business for a year.
01:10:55.900
That makes you the one who are pushing new policies that have never been done before in America, never even been tried in the world.
01:11:13.420
Anyway, history has shown that extremist movements, waves of mistrust, and wholesale rejection of authorities.
01:11:20.840
Now, why would we have a wholesale rejection of authorities?
01:11:28.660
Couldn't believe, it couldn't be that they've lied to us every step of the way, could it?
01:11:36.560
The media has covered up every step of the way.
01:11:39.940
The reason why you have QAnon is because people don't believe the government because they have proven themselves to be untrustworthy.
01:11:55.000
If you are somebody and you have a bank and you're like, gee, nobody's coming into the bank.
01:12:12.100
Because I can explain your lack of trust from the American people if you've been screwing them.
01:12:29.400
And we know this because we've seen it over and over and over again.
01:12:34.980
Every time we elect someone, the state does everything they can to dismantle them.
01:12:41.160
If we elect somebody like a Tea Party person, they co-opt them.
01:12:50.160
So, you needed to get somebody with a bigger hammer.
01:13:06.240
Americans are falling prey, says the Washington Post, to the same phenomenon historians, theologians, and others experts say,
01:13:16.140
exemplified by a recent NPR Ipsos poll, in nearly one in five said they believe Satan-worshipping child-enslaving elites took control of the world.
01:13:29.380
That Satan-worshipping child-enslaving elites now have control of the world?
01:13:38.540
As shutdowns paralyzed the economy in the first months of the pandemic, Americans sharply increased searches for extremist and white supremacist materials online.
01:13:53.940
I don't know anybody who was like, I lost my job.
01:14:00.060
New insecurities and fears loose by the pandemic fed into the existing erosion of trust in leaders and institutions, according to those who have studied how people react rampant to uncontrolled disease.
01:14:17.400
We are reacting to the leaders of our country, of medicine, and the media.
01:14:26.240
When you tell us not to wear a mask and then you tell us to wear a mask, you lose credibility.
01:14:33.360
When you tell us, no, this is going to be over in 15 days, we accept that, okay, maybe this summer we've got to do it for a couple of extra months because we don't have a year into it.
01:14:48.160
And then you come to us at the same time when you told us no masks were good and now you're proposing a two mask minimum to be legal.
01:15:01.560
In a healthy society, the government and the church would say this is nonsense and people would believe them.
01:15:08.480
This is according to Richard Land, president of the Southern Evangelical Seminary.
01:15:11.680
But during the pandemic, that check on extremist impulses has failed for some who crave connection with others.
01:15:19.760
God created us as social creatures and when we isolate from other human beings, we tend to malfunction.
01:15:27.620
Over the past year, the pandemic was a constant undercurrent as Americans took to the streets to protest racial injustice.
01:15:38.500
All of those protests, all of the racial injustice, all the looting, everything went on.
01:15:47.300
And the president, President Biden's victory in the 2020 election.
01:16:00.400
Much as they were motivated by the causes themselves, many who participated in the street actions were probably also eager for human contact.
01:16:08.820
I love breaking the windows of a Macy's store just because we can do it as a human family.
01:16:13.880
In that view, according to psychologists who have studied the effects of social isolation, the January 6th attack on the Capitol was both an insurrection plot, an impromptu meetup, an assault on the infrastructure of American democracy, and a social gathering for people who believe they were defending their idea of nationhood.
01:16:44.620
Many have argued that President Donald Trump's efforts amounted to an attempted coup.
01:16:51.680
Well, in the wake of COVID-19, it appears that far-right extremists have discovered the extent of people's fear of social control and the loss of liberty, and have realized how easily they can manipulate citizens who may not normally subscribe to extreme ideology.
01:17:09.680
It is not extreme to believe in the Bill of Rights.
01:17:14.240
It is not extreme to believe in the Constitution.
01:17:18.060
It is not extreme to believe in a court of law where justice is blind.
01:17:25.920
It is extreme to believe anything other than that in America.
01:17:30.960
Now, maybe if you live in the Soviet Union or now Russia, what's the difference?
01:17:37.080
It might be extreme to believe in those things.
01:17:40.780
But in America, it is not extreme to believe in liberty.
01:17:45.980
It is not extreme to believe that if your politicians lie, cheat, steal, that they should go to jail or at least be prosecuted or at least be voted out.
01:17:59.820
It is not extreme to believe that the President of the United States should not enrich his own family with the biggest enemy of America and, quite frankly, the freedom of all mankind, China.
01:18:16.540
It is not extreme to believe that 30, 40, 50 executive orders in the first 100 days is extreme.
01:18:30.500
It's not extreme to believe that we shouldn't do the Great Reset.
01:18:36.940
It's not extreme to believe that we don't really have a protected freedom of speech as long as a bunch of global companies, many of them in bed with the Communist Chinese, they get to decide who speaks and who doesn't.
01:18:54.920
It's not extreme to believe that Marxists should not be in charge of our schools.
01:19:02.080
It's not extreme to believe that libraries in those schools should not purge books in America.
01:19:12.380
I'm not even done with the Washington Post, but I just want to make sure that the Washington Post, no, forget them.
01:19:19.040
I want you to firmly understand you are not an extremist.
01:19:27.560
If you believe in the Bill of Rights, that does not make you an extremist.
01:19:33.980
Those who wish to thwart it are the extremists.
01:19:41.720
Although that monologue sure makes me one, I'm sure, in their eyes.
01:19:47.520
What is it that's keeping you from doing the things that you love to do?
01:19:52.440
I mean, besides being forced to wear, you know, some sort of a yarmulke on your face over your mouth every day.
01:19:59.460
Do you suffer from pain, frequent pain, mild all the way up to debilitating?
01:20:07.240
It can wash all the color out of your world, leaving a bleak landscape where it's hard to find motivation, let alone the ability to do anything at all.
01:20:24.640
It has worked for so many in this listening audience.
01:20:29.620
70% of the people who try it go on to order more.
01:20:49.100
In the name of progress, we're destroying their minds with Marxist lies.
01:20:52.900
And in the name of safety, we're killing them by keeping them locked down.
01:20:56.740
We have the highest suicide rate we've seen amongst children.
01:20:59.720
Glenn reveals the horrors of a dangerous curriculum that's about to go national and takes on the teachers' unions, the Biden admin, and leftists failing our children.
01:21:15.840
Not done with that article from the Washington Post.
01:21:58.740
This is the mint brownie until the coconut brownie chunk came in.
01:22:15.760
They are the best tasting protein bars out there.
01:22:24.560
They are low calorie, low sugar, high protein, high fiber.
01:22:29.340
You can lose or maintain weight while indulging in a very good treat.
01:22:37.040
It doesn't have the aftertaste, doesn't have the chemical, and it doesn't taste like a

George Orwell wrote 1984 while he was dying of tuberculosis.
01:23:40.880
He said, it would have been better had I not been under the influence of tuberculosis at
01:23:46.720
the time, but he's not entirely dissatisfied with 1984.
01:23:54.220
He said, this is the direction the world is going at the present time.
01:23:59.960
In our world, there will be no emotions except fear, rage, triumph, and self-abasement.
01:24:13.320
There'll be no loyalty except loyalty to the party.
01:24:16.900
But always there will be the intoxication of power.
01:24:20.600
Always at every moment there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an
01:24:27.400
If you want a picture of the future, wrote Orwell, imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever.
01:24:35.480
The moral to be drawn from this dangerous nightmare situation is a simple one.
01:24:45.520
And in a time of deceit, telling the truth is the ultimate revolutionary act.
01:24:58.020
Well, in a revolutionary act, Parler is back online.
01:25:04.560
We've talked to the interim CEO, Mark Mechler, in 60 seconds.
01:25:14.900
Well, mowing season is about to arrive in Texas.
01:25:26.020
We have a snowstorm, and next we'll be planting our azaleas.
01:25:30.740
It will be beautiful as soon as the snow melts.
01:25:33.320
If you have a lot of grass to cut, there is one lawnmower that is unbelievable, unbelievable.
01:25:42.000
It's a Hustler zero-turf, zero-turn radius mower, named after the Air Force's B-58, the
01:25:51.540
Hustler mowers are made in the U.S. with some global parts.
01:25:54.820
They offer a hero's discount for veterans, active military, and they're a supporter of
01:26:00.480
the Folds of Honor, an organization that helps provide the families of fallen and disabled
01:26:07.140
Hustler has been making and perfecting the zero-turn lawnmower for more than 55 years.
01:26:18.860
When you sit on a Hustler, you're not sitting on something to mow the grass.
01:26:25.260
Go ahead, check everybody else out, then find your closest Hustler mower dealer, and
01:26:34.100
Before you buy some other mower, find a Hustler dealer.
01:26:39.440
All you have to do is just check out hustlerturf.com.
01:26:45.060
Isn't it necessary that all of us review our own attitude and say, yes, it is possible
01:27:00.740
He is the interim CEO of Parler, which we know now is a website of real danger, real extremism.
01:27:12.680
You know, I don't feel like I'm very dangerous or extreme, but that's certainly how it's
01:27:19.420
Well, do you believe in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights?
01:27:28.120
I just did a monologue last hour about how extremists are the ones who are trying to get
01:27:35.520
rid of the Bill of Rights and the Constitution, but the media and politics in Washington are
01:27:42.280
trying to make those people seem like the Americans, and we're the extremists.
01:27:50.640
They stand against everything that this country was founded on and for.
01:27:54.620
And frankly, those people right now, they occupy the White House and they're in control of both
01:28:02.780
If you recognize the name Mark Meckler, it's because he's the Convention of States guys.
01:28:07.920
And he's been talking about that with us for a long time.
01:28:11.660
About four weeks ago, we were talking about the Convention of States, and I mentioned
01:28:15.860
Parler going under or going out, being taken out.
01:28:24.400
We talked about there has to be somebody that is building the infrastructure for the right
01:28:31.220
And you talked at the time about being a part of a movement to do that.
01:28:38.140
Did that play a role, what you're doing behind the scenes?
01:28:42.480
So I've been thinking about this problem, as we talked about, for a long time.
01:28:45.680
And I've been working on finding alternative service providers and folks who are actual
01:28:50.360
real patriots who would stand in the fight in the event that they were attacked.
01:28:53.820
And so I had a little bit of a head start in thinking about this.
01:29:00.660
And so when I saw it go down, I just reached out to see if there was anything I could do
01:29:05.780
Literally didn't expect to end up being the interim CEO.
01:29:08.560
That's just the way things have worked out over time.
01:29:11.180
But yeah, I think a lot of it was my thinking in advance.
01:29:14.100
I got to say, though, when all the credit for getting it back up goes to the staff,
01:29:21.880
I'm not blaming this on the staff by any stretch.
01:29:23.780
It's taken a month to get over a month to get back in the public square.
01:29:30.180
Is there any lawsuit that I know you're an attorney?
01:29:33.640
Is there any lawsuit that can be had for the destruction of business by Amazon and the
01:29:40.860
collusion with all of these companies that we now know happened?
01:29:50.240
That lawsuit is against AWS, Amazon Web Services.
01:29:58.840
But we'll be putting out more on that probably in a week or so when we amend that complaint.
01:30:04.320
Did you see the, just so you have it in your coffers, I'm sure you do, the story that came
01:30:08.880
out that showed that there were many more people organizing on Facebook for January 6th
01:30:23.980
In fact, there's been a couple of great stories on that.
01:30:26.020
That one was an independent review by Forbes, and they found the vast majority of violent
01:30:32.960
YouTube and Instagram were close second and third.
01:30:36.780
And so, look, there's always going to be bad content on every platform of that size.
01:30:40.880
But the bottom line is, this was just a hit job.
01:30:44.960
But I would also add that it was a business hit job.
01:30:47.260
They see Parler as a real threat to their monopoly on the business market and on free speech,
01:30:54.160
There is no place, according to them, for somebody who disagrees with the current cabal,
01:31:04.500
I mean, it's not enough being kicked off of the other platforms.
01:31:08.440
When you start and you go on another platform, they'll shut down the platform.
01:31:14.860
And look, I think there's two measures to this, though.
01:31:20.840
Remember that Mussolini said that the definition of fascism is everything inside the state,
01:31:28.280
nothing outside of the state, and nothing against the state.
01:31:31.400
So that's now being enforced by our government, but also by the tech oligarchy and working with the government.
01:31:37.140
And then I think the second thing is a business model.
01:31:41.980
So if you can say it in the public square, you can say it on Parler.
01:31:44.620
We believe in privacy and data sovereignty, meaning we're not monetizing the data of our users.
01:31:50.160
We're here for our users as a service to our users, not to use them and use their data.
01:31:55.740
And we have an advertising model that doesn't use their data.
01:31:58.900
And so I think that's very threatening to Facebook and Twitter and all the others.
01:32:02.600
So how are you going to make money when the advertising cabal comes after you guys?
01:32:09.460
I mean, at The Blaze, we have worked on building our own advertisers, and they're as close to bulletproof as possible
01:32:18.560
because they believe in us and they believe in the work that we do.
01:32:23.660
Are you guys at that place with your advertisers?
01:32:28.060
We're looking at the same types of people that advertise in The Blaze or have advertised and will be advertising again on Parler.
01:32:34.740
These are people who believe in the same things that you and I believe,
01:32:37.920
and they're not going to fold to the kind of pressure that the woke media and the woke mob put on them.
01:32:45.220
So tell me about the infrastructure and how stable it is now.
01:32:53.000
Yeah, look, I'm very comfortable with the infrastructure.
01:32:55.840
And again, this is where my head was at, as you know, before I went to be with Parler.
01:33:01.040
What we did is we went out and we found providers who shared our values,
01:33:04.760
but were also big enough to handle the kind of load that we put on them.
01:33:08.520
And what we did to be sure, and this is really important, Glenn, for anybody who's operating in this space,
01:33:13.460
we made sure that there were multiple redundancies.
01:33:16.100
So we don't have what I would describe as any single points of failure.
01:33:20.000
I'm very certain I've talked to the CEOs of all the companies that we're working with.
01:33:23.480
I'm very certain they're going to stand with us and not cave to the woke mob.
01:33:27.340
But even if they do, we've built in multiple redundancies,
01:33:30.480
and we're going to continue to have layers of redundancies so that we know we're bulletproof in the future.
01:33:36.240
So let's talk about, let's play devil's advocate here.
01:33:39.440
The problem that they will say is that we are living at a time where conspiracy theorists and crazy things
01:33:49.460
and white supremacists and all kinds of terrorists can be online,
01:33:57.620
You should make sure that you have an algorithm that stops all of that kind of hate speech.
01:34:04.380
Tell me why that's wrong if you do think it's wrong.
01:34:08.380
I do think that's wrong because that runs, first of all,
01:34:12.240
it runs contrary to just our philosophy at the founding
01:34:15.520
and our philosophy through most of American history really until recently.
01:34:18.680
We believe that if you don't like somebody's speech,
01:34:21.480
bad speech should be countered with good speech,
01:34:24.240
should be countered with more speech, not with less speech.
01:34:27.380
When you start tamping down on free speech, you start creating,
01:34:30.720
well, you've read about this, you talked about this,
01:34:32.860
George Orwell's view, the 1984 view of the future,
01:34:36.340
which is this idea that the government will control all,
01:34:41.900
Now, I do agree, by the way, that there are far too many people out there pushing conspiracy theories,
01:34:47.540
and many of them are in the Democratic Party in Congress.
01:34:55.880
Yet, at the same time, I think we should just debunk their conspiracies,
01:34:59.120
as we've largely done, as opposed to seeing them shut down,
01:35:03.760
Yeah, I've not asked for people to be shut down.
01:35:06.780
I've supported people who have been attacked by the woke mob,
01:35:11.220
even, and especially, when I vehemently disagree with them.
01:35:26.860
because usually, when it is, when there's one place to go,
01:35:31.800
you know, all these places that are pushing the boundaries are going to be there,
01:35:41.580
and one of the things that makes it so different from all the other social networks,
01:35:44.940
this big, scary word at the social networks is algorithm,
01:35:48.240
and I think people should be scared of that big, scary word,
01:35:51.700
if you go over there and you like certain things,
01:35:54.160
they're going to start pushing other things at you that sort of, they think, fit.
01:35:58.020
And this creates what I call the echo chamber effect,
01:36:00.460
and it does put a bunch of stuff into your feed you might not want to see.
01:36:07.860
There's nothing that you're going to see that you haven't requested to see.
01:36:10.960
You can easily remove anything from your own feed.
01:36:18.980
That's who is in charge of their experience at Parler.
01:36:21.280
We want them to see only the people that they want to see
01:36:24.400
and hear from only the groups and people that they want to hear from.
01:36:27.820
So tell me now about the people that did belong.
01:36:31.240
How long is it going to take before you're fully running with
01:36:38.880
So the platform is fully up and running right now.
01:36:42.000
We have the capacity to handle everybody who wants to come back and log on.
01:36:49.120
One of the limitations is we're having folks having trouble with the Apple iOS.
01:36:54.040
I believe that's a technical limitation we're going to get around here today.
01:36:57.620
Part of the problem with that is that we can't update the Apple app that's on the App Store right now
01:37:07.460
And if there are problems in there, we can't fix those problems.
01:37:09.840
So that's one of the things we're working on right now, trying to fix that.
01:37:12.920
I bet Apple is bending over backwards to help you with that, too.
01:37:17.200
Well, I'm not going to comment on that right now, Glenn,
01:37:19.500
because we'd really like to be back in the App Store because so many users want to be able to download the app.
01:37:26.000
So the second piece of that is that we are seeing every day more and more functionality come back.
01:37:32.500
Folks need to remember that this thing, when it went down, it's not just a website.
01:37:36.160
I think if you're not involved in technology and it works, it's seamless, we don't think about what's involved in it.
01:37:43.820
I'm so proud of the staff at Parler for literally 16 to 20 hours a day they've been putting in for weeks to get it back up.
01:37:50.960
But we expect to see glitches over the next few days.
01:37:55.600
It's going to continue to get better throughout the week.
01:37:57.880
And I expect that we'll be back to full functionality sometime next week.
01:38:01.660
This week, by the way, we're not even taking new subscribers.
01:38:03.960
We're focusing only on the existing Parler family, make sure everything's up and stable and running well,
01:38:09.800
and expect to be accepting new users next week.
01:38:12.360
Is everything that you may have posted before, or do you have to start from scratch if you're an old subscriber?
01:38:21.740
If you go there right now, likely you won't see any of your old stuff.
01:38:24.980
All that data has been preserved, and we will start loading that.
01:38:28.400
We didn't want to load the system with old data when we first went up,
01:38:31.760
but all of that stuff has been preserved, and it's all going to come back.
01:38:37.480
And congratulations to everybody who didn't give up and fought the battle behind the scenes.
01:38:43.700
I know what it is like when you're running a digital company, and you come under attack like that,
01:38:55.420
It is all hands on deck, and I got to tell you, it's remarkable that you are back in the first place,
01:39:02.920
and you've got to be proud of all of the people that are working behind the scenes,
01:39:09.460
because I know what it takes, and you guys just pulled off a miracle.
01:39:19.600
I come in, I get to go on the radio and talk to guys like you,
01:39:21.940
but they're an incredible, hardworking team all over the country.
01:39:25.700
These guys have worked day and night, and they get all the credit for pulling this off.
01:39:35.180
Remind people that they can join if you're a new user next week at Parler.
01:39:42.760
Bank of America has just said the emerging market currencies have inflation risks,
01:39:55.460
They say the long-term outlook is more balanced,
01:39:59.200
but you should have some protection against higher inflation in the emerging markets.
01:40:05.980
This is really, really bad because all those countries that have used the U.S. dollar to back anything,
01:40:15.860
as we inflate our money, they're the first hit.
01:40:18.920
So if they start to have inflation, they are going to start having trouble getting food and basic services.
01:40:27.060
It's going to drive up the cost of shipping for them, et cetera, et cetera.
01:40:30.480
This is going to be bad for America long, long term, because you know how you feel when you're having to bail out California.
01:40:39.020
They feel like they're bailing us out because they have a dollar and we're inflating their lifestyle first.
01:40:50.140
This is one of the reasons why gold is going through the roof.
01:40:54.460
It is another reason why Bitcoin is at $50,000 a coin today.
01:40:58.760
You got to have something, got to have something outside of U.S. dollars.
01:41:05.240
And right now, the time to get to gold line and back your investments up with some silver or gold.
01:41:19.320
Do it now, especially with silver before it goes through the roof.
01:41:23.660
When silver really starts to move up, I can guarantee you gold line will not be giving it away with gold orders as free promotion.
01:41:32.320
They won't be able to afford to, but they're doing it right now.
01:41:35.340
This is the last week to receive free walking Liberty half dollars with the purchase of a tube of gold lines, $5 gold Liberty coins.
01:41:45.060
You can now receive 25 of the half dollars at no cost as a promotion, but it is this week only when they sell out.
01:41:56.840
Now call 866-GOLDLINE, real, physical, gold, and silver.
01:42:09.060
So the majority of people believe that if you believe that the election was stolen, you shouldn't be silenced or punished at all.
01:42:51.880
Meanwhile, acknowledging their institutional responsibility for addressing racism within the libraries, the University of Delaware and Binghamton University are launching a year-long anti-racist talent management audit.
01:43:07.720
So they're going into the libraries to identify actionable reforms, building on and extending the impact of prior, uh, projects, uh, that represent diversity, organizational culture, community engagement undertaken with the library, the museums, and active, uh, and archive partners.
01:43:28.720
If you have anything that is important to America's history, and you want it to be preserved, we have a vault under a mountain.
01:43:43.760
We have another vault here, uh, and, uh, we are protecting them, and we are making sure that they do not fall into the hands of the government.
01:43:56.740
They are going in and looking for an anti-racist audit, uh, through all of our universities, the archives, the museums, and they're going to purge.
01:44:11.020
If this isn't fascism, if this isn't what happened in Germany, in Russia, in every place where it has gone bad, I don't, I don't know what this is.
01:44:36.840
Sometimes I wonder what else we could have done.
01:44:39.880
All right, when you drive down the road, having peace of mind that comes with knowing that your car is covered, if something goes wrong, you know, that you don't have to worry about anything.
01:44:54.200
It's worth a buttload of money, and you don't have to pay a buttload of money to get that peace of mind.
01:45:00.400
When you have a covered repair, you're going to get roadside assistance.
01:45:03.480
You're going to get a rental car, uh, for the time that your car is in the shop.
01:45:07.300
CarShield is going to deal directly with all the people fixing your car.
01:45:11.340
And by the way, you get to choose that, too, if you want your own mechanic to do the work or, you know, the, um, uh, the, uh, car dealership.
01:45:19.440
They, same thing to them, and they pay for it, and they don't, they don't ask you to pay in advance, and then you wait for a check.
01:45:29.920
Drive with confidence, knowing that you're protected.
01:45:32.760
Get coverage today and see why CarShield cars go farther.
01:45:47.540
Glenn Beck, Stephen Crowder, Stu Bergeer, Dave Rubin, and me, Pat Gray.
01:45:51.500
Listen to all the conservative voices at blazetv.com.
01:46:05.320
Uh, let me, uh, let me play, uh, Congresswoman Sarah, uh, Sarah Jacobs, uh, who's calling for a truth commission.
01:46:14.420
So, said in an interview with the 19th News website this week that, uh, the country needs a truth commission.
01:46:23.500
So, I think part of what we're seeing now is because we haven't really done the reckoning with the racial injustice and white supremacy of our past that we need to do.
01:46:32.920
And so, you know, a truth commission, a lot of people will think of South Africa.
01:46:39.840
And basically what it is, is it's, uh, communities all the way up to the national level having conversations about both the gory and the glory of our history and what happened.
01:46:50.560
Out the history of our country and leading up to and on January 6th so that we can come to a common narrative.
01:46:56.820
You know what's the great thing is about this truth commission is we're going to, A, finally talk about race.
01:47:03.940
When they did it in South Africa, when they did it in Rwanda, uh, it was because the people who slaughtered those, uh, those people, you know, in a different tribe, if you will,
01:47:14.620
they were still living next door to the other people.
01:47:18.200
So they needed that truth and reconciliation committee.
01:47:22.040
Um, but I am, I'm all for, I'm not going to pay for them, but I'll pay for them.
01:47:31.800
And we're going to dig up all those bastards that own slaves and then dig up all the slaves so they can testify him in the court of law.
01:47:46.240
So we have a, we have a truth commission, uh, going on.
01:47:49.800
Um, Swalwell says that we, we, we need a white nationalism task force.
01:47:55.700
Finally, somebody has, uh, finally, somebody has said it.
01:47:59.340
And can we play truth commission for buzz, please?
01:48:15.380
This, a truth commission is the committee of un-American activities.
01:48:24.020
It's a witch hunt for a different kind of red scare.
01:48:32.760
They must depend upon those of us whom they send down here to man the watchtowers of the nation.
01:48:39.420
And if you see anybody from that cabinet, in a restaurant, in a department store, we're at a gasoline station, you tell them they're not welcome.
01:49:08.280
I've seen firsthand Donald Trump's disrespect for facts.
01:49:13.500
It's really bizarre, isn't it, when you think about how AWOL so many of these members of Congress have gotten.
01:49:20.360
If we, unless we, make sure that there's no infiltration of our government.
01:49:25.120
Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to our country.
01:49:29.060
Then just as certain as you sit there, in the period of our lives, you will see a red world.
01:49:35.560
What I'm concerned about is the Republican leadership in the House of Representatives.
01:49:39.900
The enemy, the enemy is within the House of Representatives.
01:49:49.760
And the question is, how are we going to really almost deprogram these people who have signed up for the cult of Trump?
01:49:59.460
First, Google and Apple delisted Parler from their app stores.
01:50:05.960
Now House Democrats are trying to blame the free speech platform Parler.
01:50:11.140
This stuff related to big tech censorship is the issue of our time.
01:50:17.380
Will Smith appearing to call for the country to purge itself of Donald Trump's supporters.
01:50:22.160
We get to know who people are and how we get to cleanse it out of our country.
01:50:26.140
There's a proposal to have a commission to investigate Republican colleagues.
01:50:30.940
Democrat senators have filed ethics complaints against two of their Republican colleagues.
01:50:35.220
The left is trying to push these businesses to shame them and threaten them into shunning and silencing Trump supporters and conservatives.
01:50:50.780
Council culture is a wildfire that you cannot contain.
01:50:53.960
If you pour gasoline onto it, don't be surprised when it finally reaches you and you get burned.
01:50:59.880
Every business needs to stand up for every American.
01:51:04.240
Otherwise, eventually, they'll come for you, too.
01:51:08.220
Well, let this court of our truth commission, before we adjourn today,
01:51:13.920
let us come together and hear one more case, if I could call as a witness Governor Cuomo
01:51:22.560
on his nursing home scandal and who's really to blame.
01:51:28.520
The New York State DOH has always fully and publicly reported all COVID deaths in nursing homes and hospitals.
01:51:43.880
Is he saying that they have always fully reported?
01:51:55.320
We're going to have to have the truth commission look into that, I think.
01:52:11.580
They didn't come out and fully tell the truth because they were afraid of that evil orange man bad.
01:52:21.780
But wait, there's more other than just a bald-faced lie.
01:52:31.220
Nursing homes had the most vulnerable population.
01:52:36.380
COVID did not get into the nursing homes by people coming from hospitals.
01:52:41.800
COVID got into the nursing homes by staff walking into the nursing homes.
01:52:50.980
See, I thought when he signed the executive order to take people that were confirmed with COVID.
01:52:59.780
And the nursing home said, no, we can't take them.
01:53:05.560
And they said, you'll kill the patients in the nursing homes.
01:53:16.900
And they said, no, this is, you're going to be responsible for many people who are dying.
01:53:26.840
But the problem is, is while they were having that discussion, people who were working there
01:53:33.080
at the nursing home, you know, the good care workers, those heroes, the people that were
01:53:39.240
working at the nursing homes, they're not heroes.
01:53:41.960
No, they infected all those poor people in the nursing home.
01:53:56.360
When we didn't even know we had covid staff walking into a nursing home, even though they
01:54:03.840
were asymptomatic, asymptomatic, because the national experts all told us you could only
01:54:10.540
spread covid if you had symptoms and they were wrong and they were wrong.
01:54:20.820
Hey, it's me, Governor Cuomo, the dumbest mobster in all of government.
01:54:32.100
All those people have been calling heroes the whole time.
01:54:37.800
They were the ones that were killing everybody.
01:54:45.700
Who needs the mob when you got nursing home workers?
01:55:10.060
Bilt Bar, we were just actually talking about this in the last break because we were actually
01:55:20.940
And we're just talking about how bad diet bars used to be.
01:55:28.700
Remember when they just used to taste like like your Dow chemical.
01:55:40.000
Bilt Bars are the best protein bar out on the on the market.
01:55:45.080
Tanya tried to get me to try these things about a year ago.
01:56:05.660
I don't either because they are low calorie, low sugar, high protein, high fiber.
01:56:12.000
They're better than most protein bars when you're eating them.
01:56:17.880
I mean, this is the flying car that we were all promised.
01:56:26.000
I want you to get a mixed box and try them out for yourself.
01:56:28.660
Right now, if you use the promo code Beck, you're going to save 20% off your order.
01:56:46.280
I can't believe the people of New York and how Cuomo's popularity has faded.
01:56:56.260
But a guy who went out and campaigned about how great he was, wrote a book on management,
01:57:07.340
I don't know why everyone on his staff isn't on talk radio, isn't on whoever would accept them as a guest.
01:57:16.560
If I worked for somebody who then started to blame the nursing home staff, I think, I mean, I don't care how much I love you.
01:57:28.180
I would be like, this is, I can't, I can't do it another day.
01:57:34.540
And the people of New York just sitting back and taking it too from him.
01:57:40.740
You have to, you have to take into consideration that a lot of these guys, I mean, if you're, what are you going to do?
01:57:49.980
I mean, you're in, you're in New York, you're getting fed bullcrap from the media.
01:57:56.600
Now, not all the media, they are starting to peel away from him to some degree, but they're still kind of leaving it in question.
01:58:17.100
He was taking advice from all of the big donors that are the big New York hospitals who didn't want all those COVID patients.
01:58:33.660
What group is out there that doesn't have huge money behind it?
01:58:40.840
And now he's blaming it on the nursing home staff?
01:58:45.120
Where's, where, where is the nursing home union?
01:58:53.280
Where's the nursing home union not standing up to this bully?
01:59:07.100
Anybody who is now, I mean, I'm, I'm amazed at the story that I read this morning coming in about,
01:59:14.120
the libraries, how our, how our libraries are now going through social justice reforms and they're going to spend the next year looking for all the books that should be purged from our library.
01:59:34.200
You could say goodbye to just about any book written before 1940, because they all contain concepts or language that is now deemed objectionable.
01:59:53.600
Uh, so, I mean, if you can't even have, like is going on with the, with the bachelor, bachelorette, I, I don't watch it.
02:00:07.220
One of the contestants went to an antebellum party, which is, you dress up like you're in the South.
02:00:12.780
And so Chris Harrison, who hosts the show said, uh, that sounds like the woke police.
02:00:24.100
Now he had to step aside for the rest of the year, at least, and maybe forever.
02:00:28.480
I wouldn't be surprised if ABC doesn't just fire him outright.
02:00:31.720
Oh, ABC has become, Oh, I mean, it's a mouse with a badge, man.
02:00:48.640
And yet in the, in Mulan, they film it over in China and they thank the people in the province that are rounding Uyghurs up.
02:01:16.080
I asked you earlier, have your political values changed?
02:01:25.880
I mean, the left was right about what was coming with corporations.
02:01:29.920
They were correct about it, but now they're all for it.
02:01:33.600
Now, all of a sudden, as these corporations are taking our country and taking control of the country and the world, they're fine with it.
02:01:45.460
As long as your corporation is run by a left, a leftist, they love you.
02:01:55.760
Even though they're essentially four different governments that are kind of running the show right now.
02:02:01.660
I don't even think they're four different governments.
02:02:06.000
And they're in collusion with the United States government.
02:02:11.020
You know, when Facebook says, hey, we got to take Parler off, and they take Parler off, even though the evidence shows there was more hate and more organizing for January 6th on Facebook, when they can get all of the corporations to destroy Parler, that's one corporation.
02:02:33.540
That's four corporations all walking as one and all doing the bidding for their other partner, the government.
02:02:43.760
Where are those people that used to say, I'm for rights, and I don't like rights that are being trampled on by corporations?
