Martha listens to her favorite band all the time.
In the car,
gym,
even sleeping.
So when they finally went on tour, Martha bundled her flight and hotel on Expedia to see them live.
She saved so much, she got a seat close enough to actually see and hear them.
Sort of.
You were made to scream from the front row.
We were made to quietly save you more.
Expedia, made to travel.
Savings vary and subject to availability, flight inclusive packages are at all protected.
Wow.
The Joe Biden campaign
has geometum going to the door.
And it's like they almost set him on fire last night.
He is clearly done.
Elizabeth Warren is clearly done.
There is some really good news, I think, coming out of these numbers
that speak to all Americans.
And I'll give you that coming up in just a second.
First, First, American Financing is our sponsor.
Real estate conditions are really looking up.
It's incredible when you look at
the amount of money that you can save.
You can buy, what was it, $48,000 more in a house.
Say you were looking for a $200,000 house two years ago.
You can now afford a $250,000 house because the interest rates have gone down so much that you would be paying the same that you would have been paying on a monthly payment for a $200,000 house.
That's great.
That is great.

You know, as usual, I think the media is missing all of the real telltale signs from both the iowa uh caucus and the new hampshire primary last night there's some really positive things for our country coming out of these one of them is that joe biden was destroyed last night but also the pete butta judge
the
the bernie sanders and Donald Trump numbers paint an interesting story to tell as well.
We go there in one minute.
This is the Glenbeck program.
You might not have been aware of this, but mankind actually invented the office job so we wouldn't have to do backbreaking work anymore.
It seems like the joke is on us because most of us with office jobs sit in the kind of office chair, you know, that feels like it was built to give Soviet cosmonauts one last uncomfortable ride on their one-way trip to outer space.
If you don't want to sit like a commie all day, may I suggest you look into X-Chair.
X-Chair, with its patent dynamic, variable lumbar support and 10 different settings, the X-Chair is what you and those around you need for a comfortable workday.
With X-Chair's 30-day guarantee of satisfaction, you'll have zero risk.
Now, most companies can't make that kind of offer, but most companies aren't an X-Chair.
Don't settle for less than the best.
Get an X-Chair today.
It's what we're sitting in right now, and I'm telling you, I got one for my wife for Christmas.
It is the best chair you've ever sat in.

Well, it
came out very much like Iowa did.
Bernie Sanders and Pete Budajudge slugging it out for number one and number two.
I thought these numbers spoke volumes.
America, the Democrats, don't want a socialist.
You'll notice that Elizabeth Warren, her numbers went down.
Bernie Sanders didn't pick any of those numbers up.
Amy Klobuchar clobbered
Joe Biden, and Pete Buttajudge is being viewed as a moderate, even though he's not.
You start to get rid of Joe Biden
and
Michael Bloomberg or
Amy Klobuchar.
You get rid of the so-called moderates,
and Pete Buttajudge would have clubbed Bernie, just clubbed him to death.
And to me, that's something that we need to talk about.
Also, there's something else the media is missing.
Donald Trump more than doubled Obama's 2012 New Hampshire vote total.
There was not a lot of passion for Barack Obama in 2012.
He still won, but there wasn't a lot of passion.
Donald Trump has doubled those numbers
in New Hampshire.
That says the people who are for Donald Trump are on fire for Donald Trump.
The turnout for the youth, what was it, 18 to 30-year-olds, was actually down by two or three points
from
the 2016 election.
They expected it to be 20 points higher.
There is no no revolution going on here.
This is not a big socialist revolution.
It's happening in the Twitter sphere.
It's happening online.
It's happening on MSNBC.
But it is not happening in our communities when New Hampshire isn't even putting 10 or 15 points in front of Pete Buddha Judge.
We go to Steve Dace
from the Steve Dace program here on Blaze.
He follows this program live every day.
Wanted to see and get his feel on what happened in New Hampshire last night.
Hi, Steve.
Morning, Ed Glenn.
And
the big takeaway I see is the winning vote total Bernie Sanders had compared to what we've seen in recent cycles when there's been multi-candidate fields.
Like what Sanders did four years ago is irrelevant because it was just him and Hillary head to head.
Correct.
But if you go back to 1996, you'll see a pattern.
And that is whenever the winning vote total is depressed in its overall amount, that party loses.
Buchanan in 96 won New Hampshire with less than 57,000 votes, for example.
And then if you go back, and it doesn't really matter who wins, like McCain won New Hampshire in 2000, but his vote total was over 115,000.
And then you saw George W.
Bush ultimately win that election.
So whichever party has a surge in the vote total of its winner, Donald Trump was well over 100,000 back in 2016, for example, whichever party sees a surge in the vote total of its winner in New Hampshire tends to go on and win in November.
And what you're looking at with Bernie Sanders is what I was telling you back in Iowa.
This is 2012, but there's no Mitt Romney.
They thought that was going to be Joe Biden, and they don't have that candidate right now.
And so Bernie Sanders is winning, pardon the Soviet pun, a bunch of Stalingrads here.
He's winning wars of attrition because his base shows up no matter what, while everybody else is sort of figuring out, hey, who else are we going to go with?
Is it Rick Santorum?
Is it Michelle Bachman?
Is it Rick Perry?
Well, now the names are Pete Buttigig and Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar, who nobody knew what a Klobuchar was a month ago.
So big picture takeaway for your audience.
They've got the left media and the Democratic Party has between now and Super Tuesday on March 3rd to take him out.
If you go to the calendar on Super Tuesday, there's a lot of southern states there that Pete Buttigieg has no chance to win.
And so if Bernie Sanders wins, just as New England states and California, he's going to be the nominee.
And you're going to see them begin to start making peace with it and retconning him from March 4th thereafter.
But between him, now and March 3rd, it is open season on Bernie Sanders, and they've got to come up with a candidate that they can rally behind that's not him.
Do you think that's Pete Buttigieg?
No.
I think Pete Buttigieg is largely a fascinating.
The same people that voted, the same white suburbanites and exurbanites who voted for Barack Obama without knowing what a Jeremiah Wright was or betting his record because they wanted to break the racial barrier is who's voting for him now because they want to, he's the virtue signaling candidate of this cycle.
They just want to say, hey, I'm not homophobic.
But if you look at the college campus communities and those places, the urban areas, he doesn't have a lot of support there.
And now we're going to go to South Carolina.
He has no chance to win there.
And then from there, we go other than the Nevada caucuses.
There's going to be a lot of southern states here, a lot of black voters who are socially conservative.
He's a no-go, no-fly zone right away.
And I think you're going to see him remain relevant because of what he's already done.
But there's not too many states between now and Super Tuesday that when you look at the calendar, you think, yeah, I think Pete Buttigieg could win there.
So who is there?
Because
I just
watching Amy Klobuchar, she is just not somebody who's going to win.
I mean, I watched her last night give her speech, and it's just, I just don't see a president Klobuchar.
So who is it?
I think that's the problem.
I don't think there is a logical one.
I think Michael Bloomberg, you know, I mentioned to you this a few weeks ago, I think his play was for Super Tuesday to start to see if I can buy primary primary wins in places like Oklahoma, et cetera, with huge, massive television buys.
But the problem is, you know,
he was a terrible Republican.
He's an even worse Democrat.
He's not an inspirational figure at all.
He's even more socially awkward than Elizabeth Warren.
This is why I think he is, this is why I've been tweeting out for the last couple of weeks, Glenn.
This is Thanos.
I am inevitable.
I believe Bernie Sanders is inevitable because everything you just said about the Democratic Party is true, but that's why he's inevitable, Glenn.
They have played footsie with the likes of Bernie Sanders and these folks to club people like you and me for 30 damn years.
And now the camel's nose is not under the tent.
The whole torso, the tail, the backside, it's all in the tent now.
And they can't figure out how to consolidate.
A true ideological moderate would crush him.
But they're not capable as a party party of permitting one.
I mean, Andrew Yang put out one moderate position on abortion 24 hours ago and was excommunicated
by the White Woke Brigade.
And so everybody we call a moderate, I mean, Pete Buttigieg wrote in college his political idol was Bernie Sanders.
All right, so everybody we call a moderate is actually a leftist too.
They just don't Nikita Khrushchev shake their fist at you like Bernie Sanders does.
So but isn't that why, isn't that a reason why Pete Buttigieg could do well?
Because
he is that leftist,
but he just is in much softer, nicer, younger packaging.
Yes,
if he were Governor Buttigic or Senator Buttigic.
But the problem we have right now is,
we're going to be blunt.
The only reason the mayor of a town as big as Cedar Rapids, Iowa, is in this race is because he's gay.
And that right now is the number one intersectionality victim group in the Democratic Party.
And so that's gotten him where he's at now.
But now we reach where we go where the map pivots south, and we go to that's the biggest argument against him.
And so what got him in the door in Iowa and New Hampshire and made a whole bunch of people say, yes, I finally get to convince MSNBC I'm not a homophobe, is now what is too expensive of a cover charge for him to pay to go into the bar from South Carolina, Alabama, and all those states down south between now and Super Tuesday, his biggest strength becomes his biggest impediment.
So I have a different view on Pete Buddha Judge and people, and you know, hey, I'm not a homophobe.
I think that's already been decided.
I think that's over, you know, for the most part, except with the real die-hard extremists.
And it's kind of like had its day, and we, you know, we've all accepted everybody, and yada, yada, yada.
It's not, that's that, that is not the noose it used to be.
You say one thing wrong, and it used to be an absolute noose.
Now it's kind of divided, I think, on the left to where
there are others that are saying, you know, why are you getting all the special details and the special laws and the special everything?
So
I think there's the,
it's a double-edged sword inside of his own quiver of, yes, he's gay, but yes,
is he an extremist like,
we have seen in the past?
And so I think it works both ways on that.
I really think Pete Buddha Judge is
the
Jimmy Carter of this generation.
He could go a long way just being the anti-Trump.
Look, can't we all get along?
Nobody cared about Jimmy Carter except he's just a simple peanut farmer and
he was a preacher and he just loves the Lord and he'll carry his own luggage.
He's not like that evil Nixon and Ford.
I think there's a swing and the swing that I think people are hungry for is A,
don't be Donald Trump.
And they've beaten people and beaten people and beaten people.
And I think there's a chance that even they are seeing, I don't want that divisiveness.
I don't want the Nancy Pelosi and the just beating people over the head.
I want to win, but I would like a uniter, not a divider.
And I think that if Pete plays it right, and I think he did last night in many ways, if he plays it right on, hey,
I just want us all to come together, I think that could be effective for him.
Disagree?
Somewhat.
I think you're correct about the rivalry within the Democratic Party.
And, you know, the same week that we had the first gay marriage ruling from the Supreme Court, they struck down the Voting Rights Act of 1964.
And what a lot of people on the right don't know is the intra-party dynamic on the left.
There's a massive problem between
the homosexual activists and the black community because it is seen as if this group has put them, pardon the pun again, the back of the bus here on the intersectionality chart.
If Pete Buttigieg is the Democratic nominee, mark my words, Donald Trump is going to get the best voting total of blacks by a Republican presidential nominee since before the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Mark my words.
All right.
Hang on just a second.
I want to come back in one minute because I want to ask you,
the road to not having Bernie Sanders
is a dicey one, especially if the Democratic Party doesn't, it knows what you just said, which I believe.
then what?
Then how do they manage this?
And what's the aftermath?
We'll go to
Steve in one minute for an answer to that question.
Where was the first time it happened to you?
The first time you realized, oh, crap, today is Valentine's Day?
And you forgot to get her anything.
Oh, I remember.
Do you remember, Stu?
Oh, yeah.
It was the year we were working on the CNN show, and we were in New York, and it was our first time and we were all so busy and every single one of us forgot it was Valentine's Day and we were like, oh crap.
Well, there's a billion florists here in New York, right?
I mean, we ought to be able to get something.
No,
because there's 17 million people going to those million florists.
We literally were in the, we were in the basement of Rockefeller Center standing at the at the subway
and we had to buy baby's breath or we didn't buy it.
That's what they were selling.
By the time we got there, no flowers.
They're like $10 for baby's breath.
Like,
no, my wife's not from here.
She won't accept that.
Valentine's Day is now two days away.

So, Steve, let me start with the question
of
how does the Democratic Party, which I completely agree with you, I found some old audio.
We should play that today.
Found some old audio of me in 2004 warning the Democratic Party once they put Michael Moore in the presidential box with Jimmy Carter in 2004.
I said, you people are out of your mind.
He's a socialist.
You think you're using him.
He's using you.
He's going to come back and the socialist will eat you for breakfast.
And you you watch, and here we are.
How do they untangle themselves from these very dedicated radicals, revolutionaries, and hold things together?
I don't think that they can.
I think, you know, to quote the former president's leftist pastor, their chickens are coming home
to a roost.
Yeah, I think eventually, you know, do not be deceived.
God will not be mocked.
You will always reap what you sow, right?
And I think that you're watching this now.
And I don't think there's a way out of this because their only real inspiring alternative is a guy that actually exposes the wedges of their constituencies all the more.
If you look at all of the black and brown polling in this race, even down to the college-age kids, where they've been totally worked over by the sexual revolution, the lowest polling candidate of all black and brown peoples of any age group is Pete Budigic.
And so when you put him as the alternative, you're actually exposing this schism and fracture all the more.
That's why I don't think they have a way out of this.
So you think they're going to run
Bernie Sanders?
I think they're going to run.
I think they're either going to run Bernie Sanders.
And if we look at the primary calendar between now and March and the end of Super Tuesday, tell me what states, maybe Colorado, maybe Virginia, and that's about it of those 14 states that are going to be going between now and March 3rd that Pete Butigic can win.
If Bernie wins, New England, the rest of those New England states, California, you know,
if he wins California and they don't give him the nomination, that's their
headquarters.
Yeah, I know.
So
I think they've got a couple of weeks to try to figure out some kind of Harry Helm Hail Mary Pass.
And then I think you're going to see them just begin to make peace with it because they recognize that, go go back to the first interview you and I did on this cycle back in January of a year ago.
And I said the biggest challenge Democrats have is they want to run the election of 2028 and 2032.
But we're not there yet demographically.
And so they may just decide, you know what, we'll eat it like we did with McGovern.
We'll eat it, you know, like we have in other cycles, because ultimately we know that we're controlling the arc and trajectory of the Overton window in history here.
And once Donald Trump is gone, there is not another Republican who dares to stand against us on this cultural level because they're all afraid of our media.
My guess is that's the play they make beginning on March 4th if they can't take Bernie out.
So you think they're still confident in the long run?
Because I will tell you, with the exception of
the demographic shift here, and that also will play against them soon because you see the ones coming behind the millennials are very conservative, very active,
and are learning what they should be learning.
I think we have a new generation of conservatives coming up that are unlike anything else.
You think that the Democrats are still confident in
this socialist future?
I think the ones that are coming in the next generation are, and it's their religion, and they're going to play out this self-actualization into its ultimate outcome.
That's what I think.
Thank you so much, Steve Dace.
You can get all of his analysis following this program every day on on Blaze TV and Blaze Radio.
And don't forget, tonight, 9 p.m., a brand new series starring, yes, little old me.
Tonight, China and Joe Biden.
You're listening to Glenn Beck.
Somewhere in America, within the sound of my voice, there's a man walking into a bank right now to transact his business.
He's not a boastful man, but there is an air of earned pride that floats about him.
It's not a flashy flashy dresser, but you do notice him nonetheless.
He walks in confidence and
he's just got an air of integrity about him.
The thing you notice first about him, besides that, confident integrity, is his boots.
It's the clearest sign of all.
The clocking sound of the heel on the marble floor draws the gaze.
It's Takovis.
That's what he's wearing.
That's a pair of boots that was handmade with love and affection.
Took somebody 200 steps to make them by hand.
Their fine leather speaks of the timeless traditional style, and they're twice the quality of similarly priced boots and half the price of a boots of similar quality.
That man walking into the bank has what you want: a boot that speaks of the integrity of the cowboy, the integrity of your own soul.

This
is the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad you're with us.
It is Wednesday.
There's something new starting tonight at 9 p.m.
Eastern, and that is the Glenbeck program.
We haven't even named this yet because it's different than anything else.
This is a series, and it will be made for free live, and I think this is happening tonight.
Live, I believe, on Facebook.
But only live.
It's not going to be archived.
You'll only be able to see it live and on demand at blazetv.com.
But we want to make sure that this gets out and so everybody can see it so you can watch it live on Facebook
as well.
Because of your subscription to the Blaze, we are able to do so much research now.
And
things are moving so rapidly that I got to give you my daily take on things on radio, but to use those resources just to do a show, to grind out a show every day and not really piece things together, I don't think is as helpful.
And we have had such a huge response with our specials that we've decided to do something like that once a week.
So all of our resources are going on
these Wednesday night episodes.
Now, I'll still be doing News and Why It Matters, which is now going to be an hour at five o'clock.
And I'm also doing a special show on Friday for Blaze TV users only.
And that we have some really good stuff coming up.
I'll tell you tomorrow who's going to be on Friday.
But they're either going to be the big news makers of the week, or they are going to be more of a top 10 stories of the week, which is a lot of fun.
It'll be different things on Friday.
Tonight, we are doing China.
This is the real threat to America.
And, you know, I know that Joe Biden is not that big of a threat right right now to be the president of the United States, but we must continue the conversation and the investigation on Joe Biden because of two reasons.
One, what his family and what he has done has got to be deemed at least illegal for someone else, the next guy.
We must plug this hole.
The
Ukrainian situation was bad.
China is much, much worse.
And China has infiltrated our universities.
They are constantly hacking.
When you see the numbers of how many times they are hacking our Pentagon a day
and the resources that
they have put together, there is an entire building in Beijing.
An entire, I mean, it's a large building, multiple stories,
and it is full of nothing but hackers for our Pentagon.
We are repelling a Chinese attack all the time.
And Joe Biden was playing footsie with them.
And it must be exposed.
What Senator Grassley is doing must be supported.
We must move forward with the Biden investigation.
So tonight, China, the real threat.
And too close for comfort with Joe Biden.
Next week, by the way, next Wednesday, a special on the coronavirus, everything you need to know.
We were working on that yesterday.
I have two teams of researchers now.
One was working on the China thing, and I went to the other team for next week, and we were working on the China thing or on the coronavirus.
I don't know what to believe.
I don't know what to believe.
It is terrifying.
Where are you on this, Pat?
I tend to believe they're lying to us.
I think it's much worse than what they're letting on.
A pretty good clue was that 10 cent website situation last week where they momentarily put up what seemed to be, to me, maybe the real numbers, 156,000 infected.
This was over a week ago.
And 25,000 dead.
I think that sounds
based on the way they're acting and responding to this.
Yeah,
it just doesn't make sense.
It just doesn't make sense.
Yeah, it doesn't make sense.
And I don't want to be a conspiracy theorist.
I don't want to whip the flames up on things, but I have to give you both sides because there is a real chance the way China is reacting and the way the WHO yesterday came out and said
that coronavirus is a real problem.
And, you know,
there's reason for that.
I'll get into that probably next hour.
Pat, tell me about the primary.
What were your thoughts on that?
Well, first of all, I noticed you guys are missing the big story from all of this.
Yeah, really.
Andrew Yang, we lost him.
We lost him.
We lost him.
And well.
Michael Bennett.
And Michael Bennett.
And we lost him.
Just happening Deval Patrick.
No, don't say that.
Not Deval Patrick.
Say we.
He was so close.
He was.
He was so close to 1%.
And Michael Bennett,
I don't even know who he is.
Right.
Sitting senator.
Sitting U.S.
Senator.
Yeah, but have you really seen anything on him?
No.
At all?
Well, he was in a debate or two at the very beginning.
Yeah.
Did not do well.
Yeah.
Didn't really connect.
Don't remember it.
Don't.
Isn't that?
I mean, Michael Bennett was like.
Michael Bennett.
Michael Bennett.
Oh, the setup is.
The singer.
Is he still in it?
No, the singer's Tony Bennett.
Oh, I thought it was a bit of a terrible thing.
Is he related?
Because I might be because maybe I'm interested.
So
I think it's interesting that the odds makers at 538, Nate Silver's website, he's not always right, but
it's a pretty legitimate website.
He gives Bernie now a 38% chance to win the nomination.
That's down from 44%, and that's after New Hampshire.
So this must be based on what's to come as well.
I think also
the number that he put up, his number was not impressive.
It wasn't as impressive as you might have thought.
The ground game, I mean, he had a great ground game.
Yeah.
And the turnout was
not good.
Not good.
I mean,
it was 20 points lower lower in turnout than they had expected yeah that's amazing it was a little bit of an underwhelming win especially when you see that you know warren basically faded away and her support seemed to go to like buttigej and klobuchar yeah not burning which is not it was not bernie really weird very yeah it was strange it was i mean look a win is a win you'd rather win than lose this is a tough thing to for people to
comprehend at times because you're like, well, he should have won by more.
Well, still, winning is better than losing.
You'd rather be him than Biden.
That's for sure.
Yeah.
It's like when Alabama beats Austin P by 12 points.
Well, it should have been 65.
Yeah, it's pretty good.
It's the same theory.
Number two in the odds makers on 538 is a brokered convention.
At 33% chance of that.
33%.
That's a pretty solid chance.
Really high.
Biden actually went up despite his fourth and fifth place finishes.
He went up from 16 to 18%.
So this Biden?
Yeah.
I mean this, they are just doing everything that's been on there.
No, but he is just like.
He's actually ahead in Nevada now.
Well, yeah, but the polls are so old there.
I mean, you know.
Not older than Biden.
No, they didn't have any polls.
No polls on polls.
They didn't even have polls made out of wood, like the sticks.
They didn't even have that.
But to give you a sense, like today, a poll came out for the national race, which has Biden four points behind.
He's still
behind Sanders.
So, I mean, 2218 doesn't matter.
National polls don't matter.
They really don't.
Because we don't have a national election.
Right.
It's true.
However, I mean, it does.
Yeah.
I think we want to go back to you playing how Elizabeth Warren was definitely going to be the nominee.
We want to go back to that clip.
Which clip do you want to go back where you mispredicted this election?
Which arrow should I go to?
I have never
ever said I was good at predicting politics.
No, I know.
But
you can mock all the.
No, I'm not mocking you for being wrong again.
What was I wrong on?
I said Bernie Sanders Sanders was going to win.
I did think he was going to win by a little bit more, though.
It's a good question.
I have to tell you, sorry, I have a well-crafted defense.
Thank you.
I have a
look, you can get well-crafted defense anywhere.
Anyway, anyway, you can get that with Rush.
You don't need that here.
You don't need that.
You want that?
You get that from Hannity or Rush.
Have a good time with that.
You're going to, from here, you're going to get.
So,
the one thing that is really fascinating to me, there's a new Pew Research poll out that talks about
what people are willing to accept from their candidates.
And
I'm going to reveal it here at the top of the hour.
But I'm telling you,
if Bernie Sanders is the nominee, it could be Mondale.
Yeah, that kind of thing.
It could be a beating like Mondale.
I think so, too.
I think so, too.
And it might not be.
I mean, I go back and forth.
Stu and I were talking about this yesterday.
Go back and forth because it's this is
risk big, win big, risk big, lose big.
Because Sanders somehow pulls this off.
And, you know, look,
the stock market crash two weeks before the election.
That could happen.
Who knows, right?
You can't predict these things.
And again, you look at, too, Donald Trump being who Donald Trump is and being a tad divisive.
I don't know if anyone's picked that up over the years.
I haven't.
Like, some people just don't like the guy.
And, you know, look, there's what, 40?
I mean, what is the bottom of people, a percentage of people who are voting against Donald Trump?
40?
40.
I mean, like, there's 40%.
45, 40.
Yes, and it's probably high.
Bottom.
He's saying bottom.
Yeah, but it goes up to about 48.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
So you're talking about a few percentage points, most likely, even in a scenario where we have the lowest unemployment in the last 50 years, right?
Like, there's just so many people who don't like him.
Right, but I think there's a difference.
I think that number is closer in the 30s than the 40s because I think there are people that are just, they're comfortable.
They don't like him, but they don't have somebody they're excited about, so they'll just stay home.
Yeah.
They'll just stay home.
Their wages are good, and they're employed.
Right.
So that's going to make a difference.
And so, and if there's not something they're excited about.
I mean, I just wait until you see this Pew Research poll.
And I couple this with what happened.
You notice that Elizabeth Warren went down.
Where did her numbers go?
Amy.
Yeah.
Maybe Amy, maybe Pete.
I mean, Pete and her have held a lot of crossover the entire time.
First of all, Pete's not a moderate.
That's a fallacy.
He's not.
And secondly, he is, they both pull from this, you know, highly educated, white, intellectual, elitist sort of crowd.
Like, they both pull from that.
So they've been trading for a while.
Klobuchar, though, not as much.
That's the new if that's happening.
The other thing that's interesting to me and helpful to me is the turnout for Trump in New Hampshire was amazing.
First of all, he very.
I I think you guys mentioned he doubled Obama's vote total, but he also just pulls people in wherever he goes.
And the rally that he did in New Hampshire that sold out the arena, there was 11,000 in.
He claims 40,000 to 50,000 outside, which is unlikely.
He does have a problem with counting.
Yes, he does.
But he filled the place when the Democrats combined event couldn't come close.
His estimate of his rallies are the level of counting is similar to Iowa.
Yes, it really doesn't.
He may be using the Iowa app.
It's a big deal.
But they're still huge.
There are two.
There are 300,000 people there.
What's crazy is
the latest poll on impeachment show
that the average person believes that the impeachment made Donald Trump stronger, not weaker.
I mean, it did, right?
It did.
This is how you know the Democrats didn't believe their own rhetoric.
Because if you actually believed he was super duper dangerous and he was going going to do all these terrible things, then you wouldn't have tried to go after impeachment on something you knew you weren't going to win.
Because this immunizes him.
You're going to need to impeach him again before the election.
Like, he can do whatever he wants now.
What are you going to do?
You're going to have to wait at least until the election before you do anything.
If you really believed that he was that dangerous,
you would never use that bullet until you knew it took it out.
Because anything they say now.
Everybody's going to roll their eyes.
Oh, come on.
One of the guys already tried to impeach him.
What are you doing?
Come on.
I mean, first, first, oh, first he was stealing it with Putin.
Then it was this, then it was that, then it was that, then it was this.
Then you always say about every three weeks, this is the one that's going to take him down.
You've been saying it.
So now, when you come out with anything, who's going to believe you?
Who is going to believe you?
Thank you so much, Pat.

Good news or bad news?
Start with some good.
Good news?
All right.
Well, next hour I'll start with the coronavirus.
Good news.
There's some bad news in there, too, but some really good news, and I think it's what everybody has been concerned about.
So we'll start with that.
And then I have some news on the election.
And actually, that's good news, too.
So really,
it's good news, a little bad, and then good news coming up next hour, the election numbers and what people are actually saying in a new Pew Research poll.
It's not what we've been led to believe.
Of course, I think we could say that about the coronavirus as well.
Have you not learned anything about
broadcasting?
Good news doesn't sell.
Oh, really bad news.

We have a new Gallup poll out that is really amazing, and
the story about it is just as amazing, written by Gallup at gallup.com.
And it's socialism and atheism
and
U.S.
political liabilities.
Are they still political liabilities?
What are
women?
If you're Jewish, if you're black, if you're old or young, young, what are the liabilities broken out with Republicans, Independents, and
Democrats?
And it is fascinating to see.
Does it include gay voters or gay candidates as well?
Yes, it does.
Yeah,
gay and lesbian.
Broken down by race?
Because this keeps coming up.
Oh, yeah.
No, wait a minute.
Wait until you see.
Wait until you see.
America doesn't seem to be the place that
everyone says it is.
It's really quite remarkable.
We have that coming up in just a second.
Standby.
Also, news on the coronavirus coming up.
The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
Well, hello, America, and welcome to the Glenbeck Program.
Really glad that you're here.
We have some good news, I think, on the state of the Union.
I think there's some things that came out last night that shows the state of the Democratic Party and socialism.
But there's also a new Gallup poll out that confirms exactly what I saw happening last night in Iowa and in New Hampshire.
And we'll start there in 60 seconds.
This is the Glenbeck program.

All right, let me give you some let me give you some good news.
First of all, on the coronavirus, I'm gonna, I'm going to give you all of the details on the coronavirus here in just a second at the bottom of the hour.
But I want to start with this because this is, I mean, when you think of coronavirus, what is it that you have been most concerned about on the coronavirus?
I mean, just the massive spread and dying, I would say.
That'd be kind of number one on the list.
What was number two?
I was pretty much just the one.
Well, this shows how out of step Stew is.
The number one concern on the coronavirus is that it is
something that is targeting the Asian community.
Its name,
apparently, according to the WHO, is making people look at that and saying, oh, this is an Asian problem, and they're afraid that racism will
pop up, and there'll be all kinds of problems because of how Asian it sounds.
To me, I think anybody who's not paying attention to it it would think that it's a Mexican beer virus.
Yeah.
And that's been shown in search results.
Well,
overshadowing the human toll, you know, in actual death is the human toll of racism.
So, yesterday, the
coronavirus has officially had its name changed to a now politically correct name that has taken the word corona
and disease
and put them together.
So it's now
COVID-19.
You will not be hearing on this program, we are not haters, you will not be hearing about the coronavirus, you will be now hearing about COVID-19.
That is the official name, and it has nothing to do with China.
Pay no attention to China.
You
haters.
That's a a serious story.
Serious story.
I mean,
how on earth do we get through these things?
We don't.
We don't.
We deserve to die of
little Chinaman disease.
You can call it whatever you want.
COVID-19, coronavirus, bat soup is bad for you disease, whatever.
We deserve it.
If we are more concerned about what we're naming it.
I mean, that's real political correctness, right?
That's our special
next Wednesday.
Next Wednesday, we're doing COVID-19.
And the real theme of the show is big governments kill.
That's what they do.
And sometimes they do it with compassion, but they kill because big governments only care about the mass.
And look at what's happening in China.
And this is an example of it.
COVID-19, you are spending time.
Can you work on a cure?
Who is like, you know what?
Put the scalpel down.
Put the test tubes down for a minute.
Can we talk about the name?
The name is scaring me.
Who is saying that?
Okay, let me give you some good news.
How does it feel to you, this fight against socialism in America?
This fight against racism in America.
Does it feel like
we're winning?
We're making progress.
It seems like the party's going further and further left
to a degree that's almost unthinkable.
I mean, we've used this example before, but Bernie Sanders in 2013 proposed Medicare for all and could not get a single co-sponsor on the bill.
Now, everyone in the race, the 50,000 people who ran,
are pretty much
on board.
All right.
And it seems like Bernie Sanders and all of the Democrats, they're all socialists.
All All of them are socialists, right?
Socialists.
Seems like it.
They're at least holding on to the socialist truck on a skateboard.
So they're just, you know, they're skating behind that truck, right?
Let me give you, from 1958, these numbers are 1958, 1983, 2007, 2015, 2020, Gallup poll.
The percentage that would vote for a person who is black.
I'm going to give you this, the raw American numbers.
In 1958, it was 38%.
That's remarkable.
In 1983, it was 77%.
Today, it's, or then, I'm sorry, 2007, 94, then in 2015, 92,
then in 2020, 96.
And to be clear, the 92 is just because there was a black president that half the country didn't like.
Yes.
Right.
So it degrades a little bit just
on that.
Catholic, I'm just going to give you the 1958 number to the 2020 number.
Catholic, 67% would vote for a Catholic in 1958.
95% would vote for a Catholic now.
That's crazy.
Hispanic, we didn't even poll it in 1968, but it is now 94%.
Jewish, 63%
to 93%.
Women,
54% to 93.
Evangelical Christian, they didn't pull it until 2015.
73 to now 80.
So now, let me help you out here.
Black, Catholic, Hispanic, Jewish, women, all in the 90s.
Evangelical Christian is 13 points behind any of those others.
That's fascinating.
That's not the right doing that.
No, no.
Gay and lesbian.
Tolerance, though, Glenn.
Gay and lesbian started taking that in 1983.
29%.
Then in 2007, 55.
Then in 2015, 74.
Now 78.
Under 40.
We've never pulled it until now.
Under 40 is 70.
Over 70.
That's short.
I mean, because you've got to be 35 in the Constitution.
So that's a short little window there.
Yep.
Right in the middle of it.
Over 70, only 69% of Americans want to vote for somebody over 70.
Muslim, 66.
Atheist, 60.
The last one is socialist, 45.
Now, let me give you.
It's still really high, but I think you're giving me that as good news, right?
Yeah, I'm giving this to you as good news, okay?
Still really high.
But willingness to vote for candidates with diverse characteristics by party ID.
Okay.
The views of political independence, I'm reading directly from the research.
Now, wait until you hear this.
The views of political independence fall midway between those of Republicans and Democrats for several candidate types, including socialists, with less than half of independents saying that they would vote for such a person.
Independents are closer to Democrats than Republicans in their greater reluctance to support an
evangelical Christian candidate, in the greater willingness to support a candidate who is a woman, gay, lesbian, somebody under 40, a Muslim, or an atheist.
As the
2020 Democratic presidential primaries get underway, listen to this.
It may be instructive to know that little prejudice stands in the way of Democrats, as well as national support for candidates who happen to be Catholic, Hispanic, Jewish, or female, especially young or advanced in age, could pose minor appeal problems.
Being gay or lesbian, Muslim, atheist, or a socialist wouldn't cause much stir among Democrats, but these candidates could have difficulty attracting support from Republicans and to a lesser extent from political independents.
So who has the problem here?
Republicans, clearly.
Republicans.
Republicans.
Let me give this to you.
You're going to have little prejudice.
You're going to be facing a little prejudice if you are
running for the Democrats.
Republicans aren't going to stand in your way, but there is some prejudice there.
If you happen to be Catholic, 95 is the number for Republicans saying that they would vote for a Catholic out of 195.
Hispanic, 90.
Jewish, 92, or female, 86.
Especially if you're young or advanced in age, 73 is for advanced age, okay?
Republicans, 73.
That number for Democrats is 66.
So you're going to pose some opposition from attracting a Republican.
They're at 73% acceptance.
You're at 66.
Then
you're going to have real problems if you're gay or lesbian, because this is real - it won't cause a stir among the Democrats.
But these candidates are going to have a really hard time attracting anybody because they're so diverse.
But anybody else, you're a Republican, you're a bigot.
Being gay or lesbian,
that's at 89%.
Let's see.
If you were Catholic, it was 95.
For the Republicans, Hispanic, 90.
Jewish, 92.
Female, 86%.
Being gay or lesbian
is 89.
Muslim, 88.
Atheist, 69.
Socialist, 76.
All of their numbers are lower than the ones that they were saying earlier are going to really cause a problem.
It's very divisive, and these people won't do it.
They're more bigoted
than the Republicans are
on the things that they say they're all for.
Gay, lesbian, Muslim, atheist, socialist,
76%.
The point that I get out of this is
there is not a big movement for socialism.
There is not this grand divide except beginning with evangelical Christians,
both sides with gay and lesbian,
both sides under the age of 40, both sides over 70.
One side really, I mean, it's 42 to 88 for Muslim, atheist 41 to 69, and socialist 17 for the Republicans and 76 for the Democrats, but only 45 for Independents.
Even that, though, is remarkable.
Almost one out of every five Republicans is fine with a socialist president.
I know, that's crazy.
That's an incredible number.
It really is.
It's interesting, too, that divide where you have characteristics,
religion, or lack thereof, sort of grouped together, because there is a difference there, right?
Like, saying you won't vote for someone because of black skin is a really,
I mean, psychotic, old-timey view.
The idea that you wouldn't vote for someone because of their religion, well, religion is largely a collection of beliefs that informs the way you act, right?
That's a much more now.
I don't, I don't, you know, there's always someone, right?
Like, but if you, if you were to say, like, atheist, a lot of people would not, that was one of the least popular ones on there, so take that as an example.
And you might say to yourself, well, atheism is
a system of beliefs
that might not lend itself to support my view of religious liberty, right?
Now, we all know,
I mean, Pen Jillette
would be a big defender of religious liberty, and he's an atheist, but we've all met atheists that would do that, but that's not necessarily inherent in the ideology.
In a way, what is a religion but an ideology?
Right.
Right.
So,
at least as it applies to public policy.
So
it's a big difference there.
And they lump all that stuff together.
And it's an interesting thing that is always included in these polls because it really does, I think for a lot of people, it's going to indicate how someone would act
because you know that's how you would act, right?
Like if you have a religious foundation, it sets the foundation for the way that you deal with whatever issue you're talking about.
Where skin color should not be that way.
And yet the left treats skin color that way.
You know, they talk about how important every cultural difference is and how that is inherent.
Like skin color, it's not inherent in that at all.
No.
That's not the way that's supposed to be.
No.
No.
But the good news is, I think, if you saw last night, Bernie's numbers are not turning out.
No.
They're not turning out.
There is a revolution going on, but it is a very small group of people.
It's not what you are led to believe by the press.
It is still small,
but it is
uncommonly large for America to be seeing this, but it's still a small number, and it's being foisted upon us by a very small group of, quite honestly, very powerful, because they are connected,
very powerful forces in our universities and in television and broadcast.
But it's only feeling like we're overwhelmed by socialists because the Democrats are being overwhelmed by socialists.
They have let this small group of rebels,
America haters, constitutional
imbeciles take over.
And that's why you feel it's choking, because it's choking them to death.
If you're a Democrat, you really need to wake up
because it's choking your party to death, and it's a small number of people doing it.
Well, if you've ever had to go to the bank and exchange yourself a wheelbarrow full of Venezuelan bolivars into U.S.
dollars, only for that the teller, of course, informed you that that's only worth about five bucks.
You probably were on the right side of that socialism scale after that.
It's kind of an embarrassing thing to happen to you, but it's not nearly as embarrassing as having to go talk to your doctor about ED.
We all know that ED is not that uncommon of a problem, but if you still don't want to have to talk about it, nobody does.
With Roman, you don't really have to do that.

10 seconds station ID.
Do you feel, is it just me?
Am I being too optimistic?
I feel like a tide turning.
I feel like America is starting to wake up to some degree.
That they are being, I mean, I actually kind of hope in a way,
I guess I shouldn't
believe God will sort it out in the end.
But I kind of hope that Bernie Sanders does get the nominee, does get the nomination, because I think it's going to scare the crap out of a lot of people.
A lot of people.
And when you flirt with something that real,
and especially with a guy who's not going to moderate it.
He's just not.
No.
He's not Elizabeth Warren.
No.
At least Warren might try to make people
confused.
He's not that.
It's not really socialism.
I mean, she still says to this day, she's a capitalist, which is laughable.
It's probably one of the reasons she's not winning that left lane because she won't own it.
He owns it.
Right.
He believes it.
He's believed it since 1907.
And I've won.
You mean when the socialist movement first started here in America?
Yeah, exactly.
He was, I think, 40 at the time.
49.
Yeah, 49.
I'm sorry.
I had an ageist.
But
I just think when you get that close to something that bad, people will wake up.
Right now, they don't really know what socialism is.
Bernie Sanders will
teach America what a socialist is.
And maybe that's what we need to put this to bed.
Yes, that is one way to go.
Yeah, I don't.
I'm not saying for the election.
I'm not saying for
him to
for him to win the presidency.
And I don't want him to win the nomination either because it's such a risk-big, win-big, risk-big, lose-big scenario.
Anything can happen when it gets to one-on-one.
I know.
Anything can happen.
He's a great teacher of what socialism really is.
It goes both ways, too.
I mean, if you remember, look, the leftists wanted to do this the whole time, right?
They've wanted to go towards socialism the entire time.
There was a time in which the best approach to do that was Bill Clinton saying the era of big government is over and they're just doing the opposite.
Correct.
And moving it very slightly.
That has, they are betting that that's changed.
They are betting that that is no longer the case.
And look at, I mean, if you look at who in this race went for the full woke idea, it really didn't seem to work all that well.
And the people pushing back against it have actually done better.
That's why I asked Bernie.
Am I seeing a sea change in America?
Are we starting to see the beginning of the end
of this

So I know I need to get to,
you know, the coronavirus, or now as it's called, COVID-19.
Honest to God, because
it was stigmatizing the Chinese.
Honest to God, they were, you know, people in the West, you know what Americans are going, like, they hear coronavirus, and they're immediately going to think, oh, those damn Chinese people.
What?
Oh, my gosh, they're just...
Who at the WHO, World Health Organization, had the time to think that?
Anyway,
I'm going to get to that, but I noticed that you've skipped the real news today in your political coverage that we've lost Duval Patrick, which.
Shocking.
Shocking development.
He got into the race like five days ago.
Yeah.
And now he's gone.
We've lost him.
So have we lost Tulsi yet?
No, Tulsi's still.
Tulsi, as far as we know.
Okay.
Deval Patrick's gone.
Tom Steyer, is he still in?
He's still in.
Now, he's got two states coming up where he has his best polling.
Which is what?
Over three?
You know, he's in double digits in South Carolina, some polls.
He's in high singles in Nevada.
I was in Nevada over
vacation right after Christmas.
And basically, you have
two different options for billboards, strip clubs or Tom Steyer.
Those are the two.
Sometimes Tom Steyer is taking his top off, so it's hard to tell which one that is actually advertising for, but Tom Steyer has blanketed that city and that state with ads, doing essentially what Bloomberg is doing in every other state.
So he has a chance to, I think, you know, register there.
And South Carolina has been his best polling, oddly, which is a strange sort of formula, I think, why a billionaire like Tom Steyer would in a state where, you know, the
large African-American voting base, but for some reason, he's showing up pretty strongly there.
All right, let me let me talk to you a little bit about
COVID-19, otherwise known as the coronavirus.
Oh my gosh, why do you hate Asians so much?
This is a perplexing story to me.
And
it's because I can't figure it out.
I would generally jump right to China's lying to us.
They always lie about these things.
And look at what we're seeing online.
Look at what we're seeing from space.
Look what they're doing.
There's something not quite right about the actions of China
and then what we're hearing.
And I don't know what it is.
And so I don't want to jump to any conclusions because I don't want anybody to freak out because that's the worst thing you can do.
But I do want you to be prepared just in case.
So we're in the midst of doing research now on trying to nail down the answers on what's really going on with the coronavirus.
I'm sorry.
It's the racist in me.
COVID-19.
And
trying to figure out what we can believe, what we can't.
One thing that sticks out to me that is weird in the media is,
you know, how the media has always made the bird flu,
everything,
everything, they have made it into, this is probably the pandemic of 1918.
This looks a lot like it.
We're probably all going to die by the end of the week.
Make sure you're with us for that special report on Sunday night, 60 minutes.
That's what they do.
Yeah.
And this is not happening now.
Now, there's a lot of news going on, but a pandemic
should probably take precedence.
No one is saying anything.
And I think
perhaps it's because they also don't know.
You can't prove and you can't disprove anything because we don't know.
So perhaps everybody is like me just kind of just taking a back seat and saying, you know what, maybe we'll, let's wait.
Let's wait to see what's going on because you don't want to add to the panic.
Now, let me give you some things that we do know.
You can't wear a cheap surgical mask
like you can with the flu.
Remember when I said, you know, really?
You can't.
You know, when I said, you know, hey, China, maybe those masks aren't working for you.
It happens to be true in this particular case.
COVID-19 requires an N95 mask.
And an an N95 mask is the heavier, just not the little surgical mask.
It's the Darth Vader one?
That's the one I like.
No, it's not like that.
It's the one with the little metal kind of clamp thing towards your nose.
It looks like a.
It's when you're going in and you're doing lots of sanding work or,
you know, chemical fumes and stuff.
And you're not having to breathe through a respirator.
It's still a mask, but it's heavier.
It's called an N95 mask.
You do so much work with
turpentine.
Actually, I do.
Actually, I do.
No doubt.
You do so much hard physical labor.
No, not hard physical labor.
You know,
I'm taking lessons for painting for the first time in my life, and I'm really enjoying it.
I have this unbelievable artist that has agreed to
give me lessons.
And she came over and she was like,
Okay, and she went through like a whole bunch of questions and I was like, nope, don't know that.
Don't know that.
Don't know that.
Don't know that.
She's like, please tell me you do have a cover for your garbage can.
And I said, no.
And she said,
okay, you know, this stuff can all just like spontaneously combust, right?
And I'm like,
no,
nobody told me that.
I'm lessons already paid for.
And so in my artist's life, I am the Leonardo da Vinci of making sure the studio and
the thing doesn't catch on fire.
I got that one down.
Nice.
Yeah, so I think I can stop lessons.
Anyway,
so
they're now saying that this virus is also spreading through contact with the eye.
Now, I have not done any French eye kissing lately,
but I don't think you have to touch your eye to my eye.
I think it's
if I shake hands with you and I rub my eye,
or if somebody coughs, I don't know if it's airborne.
We don't know, but they're saying now you can get it.
So the problem is, if you're a nurse or a doctor, you pretty much have to wear a scuba mask.
And I know how much those are.
It's also now looking like it spreads through pipes.
They haven't figured this one out yet, but the Chinese have just evacuated giant apartment buildings.
Now, see, this is where it goes to...
Really?
A thousand people have died from this?
And you're doing this.
They have just evacuated a bunch of apartment buildings because a few people people have had it and they quarantined the entire apartment building and people that lived floors apart are getting it.
And so they're thinking what's happening is when it's going down the drain, when you're flushing, you know, there's that trap that makes sure that the odors and everything else doesn't come back up.
But if you are using a fan, they think that that is sucking the corona or
COVID.
Will the racism stop?
COVID-19 is coming up and being sucked into your room, and then it's landing on the floor, where they now say it can live for nine days.
That's different.
That's huge.
This has a higher than flu
death rate and spread rate.
They're saying it can live nine days on the surface and be infectious.
There are indications that unlike flu or even a cold, try this on for size.
You get it,
you live through it, you can get it again.
The body's not making any kind of anti-body
for it.
So
that's the latest that we have on what we know and don't know.
Did you see the cruise ship that now is like the cruise of death?
It's not making me comfortable.
We're going on a cruise here in about, what, a month and a half?
Yeah, a different
boat.
Yeah, a different boat.
135 cases, they're saying, right?
So far, just on this one boat.
And here's the problem: they're out of food.
No one will dock.
They won't let them dock anywhere.
They are running out of food.
They're running out of food.
They're running out of water.
They're running out of everything.
And nobody will let them dock.
And part of the problem is this stuff can live on things
for nine days?
And so if they send a boat out there, you know, are you touching anything?
Are you exchanging anything?
It's almost like you got, it's almost like you have to send a boat out with a bunch of food.
And then once they all take the food off, then you just have to do one of those, you know, Viking arrow flaming, just set the boat on fire.
I think this is the time to get the drone food delivery thing started.
I've been wanting that anyway.
Have you seen the video of the drone that chased the little lady away in China?
They have drones now patrolling everywhere.
I did see this.
Is this that real, though?
I mean, I don't believe anything that I see on the internet.
I was going to say yes, but
can you tell?
But yes, I think it is.
I mean, they're talking about it.
The Chinese are very proud of how they're keeping everybody under lock and key.
I bet they are.
Yeah, they're very proud on how well this system is.
Oh, it's working so well i mean only 45 000 cases that we know of which
again
is probably low by uh yeah granted if they're doing this and keeping everyone in their house how is that spreading like that well i i have seen too that they don't think that quarantine is really the right thing for this.
Like, it's not going to, you can't quarantine a giant city and stop it.
That's just not the way it's going to work.
But they think, I mean, you've seen the videos, and it's so weird because we live in this era where I have, you know, you go on the internet and you have no idea what is real.
But, like, they have videos of people,
of
seemingly the government welding doors to apartment complexes shut so people can't leave.
They have videos, as you point out, of drones following people around.
There's videos of people inside their homes, and authorities come and just basically lock them in their own homes so they can't leave.
They can leave.
I mean, that is.
It's bad.
Yeah.
I mean, look, we all love to talk about the government and how bad it is.
But, I mean, this is what you can do when you really give power over.
These things happen.
So here's the latest also from today.
This one's from The Guardian.
The coronavirus epidemic, which is COVID-19, stop with the racism.
could spread to about two-thirds of the world's population if it cannot be controlled, according to Hong Kong's leading public health epidemiologist.
That's 60%
of the global population will be infected by this if they can't contain it in China.
Yesterday, according to Sky News, the WHO, now remember, these are the same people who are changing the name so
we don't treat Chinese people differently.
Crazy.
Yesterday, they came out and
the head of the WHO said, and I'm quoting:
COVID-19 is the worst worst enemy you can ever imagine and poses a greater global threat than terrorism.
The world needs to wake up and be as aggressive as possible in tackling this outbreak.
I don't.
Okay.
If that's true, can you stop spending the time on changing the name into something politically correct?
How does that fit with what everyone else is saying?
How is this fitting with our coverage?
Well, I mean, you could argue, I guess, at least in America, there's a lot of other big things going on.
I mean, last week was one of the biggest news weeks.
We talked about it that we've ever seen.
You've got major elections going on, the state of the union, the Super Bowl, you know, there is a lot.
Impeachment.
The Super Bowl.
The Super Bowl.
Pandemic.
And there was the Super Bowl.
I mean, yeah, there has been a lot here.
Yeah.
Super Bowl in that, but it is, it just is.
How many hundreds of millions of people people across the globe watch it?
I mean, it's one of the biggest events of the year.
No, I know that.
I'm confused by the response.
It doesn't seem like
it seems like something we shouldn't worry about.
And yet, you have the WHO
saying what they said yesterday, and you have China doing what they're doing and probably lying to us.
I just
I guess I'm in the middle of doing research for this for next Wednesday's special on COVID-19.
And as I'm looking at what is happening that we can verify, forget all the conspiracy theories.
Look at what you're verifying.
It doesn't match.
It doesn't match what we're being told, and it doesn't match the response from media.
And is media being responsible or irresponsible by not really going into this?
This is, I mean, N95 mask.
I would order yours today.
It probably is not going to be needed.
But you're not going to go to a Home Depot or any place else and get an N95 mask if this thing suddenly becomes real.
Would you continue to eat and drink bat smoothies?
Would you think that that's a...
Well, I think the...
Where did you get the bats?
From Wuhan.
Yeah, I would
cut down.
Maybe not a little.
No Wuhani bats.
I would cut down on that.
I'm not saying no, but I would cut down on that.
And if you just have a local neighborhood bat, you just pop that thing into your mouth.
That's fine, right?
Yeah, deep fry those bats, work them in smoothies, whatever.
A little chipotle mayo.
Oh, my gosh.
It's delicious.
Okay, hackers are everywhere.
You see 20-something-year-old kids, they're probably hacking right now your Wi-Fi system to get access to your home security camera.
Not to do anything bad, just because they can.
No surprise to anyone living in 2020 that hackers not only do these kinds of things, but they've streamlined the process with new types of software and they're out for everything they get their hands on.
Well, you don't have to take it lying down.
It's important to understand how cybercrime is affecting all of our lives in so many different ways.
And identity theft is another serious issue
on this trail.
Someone's identity is stolen every two seconds.
And you're going to miss something if you're only monitoring your credit.
That's why there's LifeLock.
LifeLock will detect a wide range of identity threats, like your social security number for sale on the dark web.
And if there is a problem, their agents are going to work to fix it.
Now, nobody can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses, but Life Lock sees the threats that you might miss on your own.

So do you remember that old man that lived down the street that all of us us kids were afraid of?
And you would, sometimes you would add maybe five or six minutes to your walk home just to take
just to take the route that didn't pass his house.
You know, you would opt for the house with a Rottweiler that was on a chain and the chain looked a little rickety and there was a big hole in the fence in the shape of a former classmate.
You remember that house?
You'd walk by that house.
Because that old man was sitting in that house and it was like he was waiting for you.
He was just waiting.
His door seemed to always be just a little open, just a little bit of a crack.
He was like ready to pounce when you walked by.
And
he was old when our parents were our age.
He was the guy that our parents were like, oh, I remember, I remember cranky old Mr.
Wilson.
You'd be like, he was old then?
Yo, yeah.
He'd come out and yell at you.
And he's still doing it.
I don't know.
Maybe
there's another guy that's a vampire or a Highlander.
I don't know what it is, but
that guy won in New Hampshire last night.
New Hampshire.
Because you know Bernie Sanders, after he gave his speech, he wanted to get into the car and he was, you know,
firing up the old Buick.
And he was like, why aren't there any dials on
the radio anymore?
Why aren't there dials?
And he couldn't hear, he couldn't figure out how to get the radio reports on how he won.
And everybody in the car was like, radio, what is that?
It's the same guy.
That same guy that would yell at you all the time.
And you would see him.
And he would be in shorts and black socks.
And he'd have black shoes on, but they were like the really high-knee socks that, you know, only old guys in suits would wear.
And you can't imagine him in a suit because, I mean, did they have suits back when he was a kid?
When he was working?
That had to be, what, a hundred years ago?
And now he's like, these shoes are comfortable.
These are the shoes everybody should have.
It's Bernie.
He was trying to get everybody to wear those comfortable shoes because they never wear out.
I bought these shoes back in 1954.
They never have worn out.
everybody should only wear these shoes
and you can borrow my socks no no no no no no
you ruffians in your
in your tennis sneakers
you'd come you'd come to his house if you were brave or if you were the new kid that moved into the block or you were just stupid
you would go to his house on on halloween and he'd open the door what do you want want?
It's Halloween.
We're all dressed as.
And then you'd see him in the happy mode.
He'd look at the kids and he'd be like, happy.
I mean, you wouldn't know it because his face didn't change.
And he would still say, I got nothing, and slam the door.
And you know, you know that that guy is the guy who wants the big government because if you were ever playing baseball, if you were ever playing kickball, any of that stuff,
that was the guy who was like, you kids, I'm calling your parents.
I know your parents, and they're not going to like it.
Yeah, because they're scared of you, too.
So, you know, he was the guy that wanted rules on everything.
He is the guy.
He was a progressive.
He had to be.
He wanted everything.
I'm calling the cops on you.
I'm walking down the street.
I'm whistling.
No whistling around my house.
And when you were there on Halloween and he closed the door, I got nothing.
Door closed.
You know he was walking back to his one chair with a lone TV in the room and he's eating a TV dinner and he's like, everybody, these kids, they all want free stuff.
That's Bernie Sanders, man.
That is who won last night in New Hampshire.
The guy who's going back to his TV dinner alone, watching that TV and that old ratty chair that is comfortable in my comfortable shoes and everybody should wear these black comfortable shoes and stop knocking at my door for free stuff.
And yet, he's promising everyone somebody else's stuff for free.
Thus endeth the lesson.
I thought I would just pop that in today because I realized it last night when he was happy and yet he looked angry, and I thought, I've seen him before.
That's Mr.
Wilson.
Yeah,
There's only one guy.
He was in your childhood, our parents' childhood, and now he wants to be president of the United States.
That's all there is to it.
By the way, Klobuchar is now going to expand her campaign after a strong New Hampshire primary.
She sucked.
Did you see her speech?
I think she's really bad.
You know, she has a great resume.
she has a great electoral history she pretty much blows everybody out everywhere she's ever been okay well but she also says i mean if i have to hear one more time that she announced her campaign in a snowstorm i'm going to jump off of a building i thought it was just me she says it every time why why do we care what the weather was when you started talking about your campaign Why would it, why on earth would we care about that?
You live in Minnesota.
Of course it was snowing.
There's no other options.
Get off my lawn in the snow.
Get off my lawn.
It's really annoying.
And she's very bad at the
she does, Kamala Harris did this too, where they come up with these lines
on the bus or in their focus groups or whatever that they think are really, really effective.
And they continually repeat them over and over again in every media appearance.
Every time you see them, every time she walks out, she says something like, I may be Klaubuchar, and I'm going to be Donald Trump.
Just like, oh, and you're like, oh.
Can she, I mean, can you even attempt to say it like a human being would say it?
Can you even try?
Or, you know, I'm sorry.
I have no problem.
I have no problem voting for a woman.
I would have voted for
Hillary Clinton.
Heels and the.
Oh, for you.
Kamala Harris.
I know.
No, you know that.
The woman.
Melda Marcos.
No.
Carly Fiorina.
I would have voted for Carly Fiorina in a heartbeat.
Okay.
I really liked Carly.
I think she was a real constitutional conservative.
Didn't sound like it at the beginning, but I think she really was.
And she had the guts to do it.
I loved her.
I loved her.
But, you know,
there is something about
some women.
Just like some guys, you know, you listen to some guys and you're like, their voice just grates on me.
You know, there's some people that have radio shows that didn't last long in radio show because their voice just grates on you.
Klobuchar is one of those people.
Hillary Clinton was one of those people where it's just like, I'm gonna tell you right now.
That's all you hear.
That's all you hear.
That's not necessarily the way they sound.
What you hear is, I'm gonna tell you to pick up your socks.
This is the sexism we've been talking about.
Yes.
But I mean, Elizabeth Warren, I think, and again, we're naming every female candidate here.
Kamala Harris didn't have that.
No, Kamala Harris doesn't have that.
No.
And I don't think, I think Elizabeth Warren has something else different.
I think she has.
She has almost like
a teenaged puberty male voice.
It's almost cracking.
It's got that hi, Elizabeth Warren.
She almost has that thing going on, which is a very simple thing.
So is it like a Catherine Hepburn thing?
Is it like
bloody old poop?
Is it kind of like that?
Possibly.
That's what I would like Elizabeth Warren to say.
If she got into a debate, she should just use all the old Catherine Hepburn lines from like on Golden Pond.
Hey, yeah, old poop.
Stop it now.
It's working better than what she's doing now.
Anything would.
Anything would.
Anything would.
But there is that.
And look, this happens for a lot of people.
It is, it's a, I mean, women will say that it's sexist.
But I, you know,
you look at it, and I bet
Barack Obama had the same kind of thing, except he had it with catchphrases that would drive you out of your mind after a while.
He was better, at least, at pulling them off.
Every candidate says similar lines at different speeches, and everybody has their go-to phrasing.
There's something about Klobuchar, though, it's very stilted.
She's memorized the way she thinks it's supposed to sound, which is not the right way, and she repeats it the same way every single time.
And that is really irritating.
Stilted?
How can you tell next to to Elizabeth Warren?
And Warren is.
She's bad like that.
Warren is like a grandmother that wants all of the teenagers to love her.
And she's not like that cool grandma or that cool grandpa that is just like everybody does love you, you know.
She's really trying.
She tries too hard.
And so you're like, okay, okay, creepy lady.
That's enough.
You know, I'm just hip with you kids, too.
Fellow kids.
Yeah.
I mean, wow, those are snazzy sneaks.
Whoa.
And she thinks she's being cool.
That's the problem with Elizabeth Warren for me is she's trying so hard.
So hard.
So hard.
So hard.
And I don't understand.
I mean,
it does feel like the Klobuchar, the Klomentum that we're seeing.
Klomentum.
I like that.
Yeah.
That is.
Because now we don't have Joe Mentum.
No.
Joe Mentum is
done.
It's crashed and burned.
The Joe Mentum ran out over the ocean, unfortunately, crashed into the sea.
I have a feeling the Joe Biden,
and it's appropriate, but the Joe Biden career is going to be remembered a little like the Hindenburg in the end.
Sure, it might have been great floating around for a while, but once it got over its target, it just burst into flames.
It's true, though.
And I think Klobuchar almost benefits from being so bad for so long.
Like, Beto, for example, comes out and he has his big run and then falls apart.
Kamala Harris has a big run and then falls apart.
Elizabeth Warren has a big run and falls apart.
All these people had these rises and then falls.
Well, Klobuchar was smart.
She never had the rise.
Yeah.
She just didn't do anything.
I'm not better.
I'm not worse.
I'm just exactly the way I was in the snowstorm.
Everyone, I'm only looking good because everyone else is burned to the ground.
Yeah.
And that is the problem because nobody's really taking it.
Everybody's like,
okay, well,
I'll try her, maybe.
Right, we're like, well, we got, we don't want to, he's got a socialist.
We got a Buddha chic who's like 12 years old.
I think he's rode his bike to the
rally.
Jing, jing!
I got a new bike bell, boys.
Who else are we going to have?
Well, Klovichar, we haven't heard anything bad about her yet because we haven't heard anything about her yet.
So let's try that one.
I'm telling you, it is shoe shopping.
They are like women shoe shopping.
They're going going to try them all on, and in the end, they're going to go, you know, I don't think I need new shoes.
Sexism is there again.
Look at that.
That's right.
That's right.
And I'm going to say it.
Coronavirus.
I don't care.
I don't care how
anti-Asian that is.
You're supposed to call it COVID.
All right, Jerry is as tough as they'd come.
He grew up on a farm.
By the time he was an adult, he was almost in superhuman shape, but kind of guy I hated.
He would work
long hours on the farm, and he liked it.
Kind of guy I hated.
He played soccer, boxing.
He was not the kind of guy that would beat me up, but I always thought he would.
He raced motorcycles and cars, and this is where his trouble started.
And I'm not making this up.
Jerry was in a collision at over 100 miles an hour, which he survived.
And while he was recovering, he was struck by lightning.
Shut up, show off.
Anyway,
five years later, he fell on a
7200 power volt cable and was electrocuted.
Oh, yeah, he's still walking around.
Well, he had to have a year of morphine, decades of ibuprofen, enormous amount of pain.
He finally discovered a relief factor.
He is living mostly pain-free now, and he's a pastor.
Well, you'd, of course, turn to God if that was happening to you.
Jerry got his life back, and so can you.
I've gotten my life back.
It's tremendous.
Please just try it.
Relief Factor attacks the inflammation that causes much of our pain.
Well, in his case, lightning bolts cause most of his pain.
It works for 70% of the people who take it, and it costs only $19.95 to start with their three-week quick start trial.
If you want a drug-free, natural way to ease your pain and get your life back, go to relieffactor.com.
That's relief factor.com.
10 seconds, station ID.
I got something on Pete Ludajudge coming up in just a second.
But I, you know, I'm going to work on this because I just realized he was that kid that would always get beat up that had the bike and the like the ching-ching ching ching that would go by the house that the old man liked.
I'm just saying.
Really?
Maybe I'll tell you that.
We'll have to figure that out.
I had a thought last night as I'm watching these results come in.
Amy Kloshar is at 20% of the vote.
How do you feel if you're like Corey Booker right now?
Like, Corey Booker drops out of the race, what, three weeks before Iowa-ish?
Why would you run this entire campaign and then drop out now when stuff like this is so obviously possible, right?
Like, why wouldn't you just stick in the race?
Could that have been Booker yesterday?
Could have been.
Could it have been Kamala Harris?
I mean, it could have been.
Might have been.
Could have been, right?
Why would you bail?
Listen to this.
This is the actual results from New Hampshire last night.
Joe Sestak.
Remember Joe Sestak?
Yeah.
Now, Joe Sestak was a failed candidate in the Senate in Pennsylvania.
For whatever reason, decided to run for president.
No one even knew what happened.
He actually did run.
He dropped out a long time ago.
He got 137 votes in New Hampshire.
That is somebody going, how can I throw my time completely away?
Yeah.
Now, the next place, now, this is going to surprise you, with 123 votes, Robbie Wells.
Now, you might say, who's Robbie Wells?
He's not even on our board.
How many candidates are on our board up here?
A thousand.
A thousand candidates, basically, on board.
Robbie Wells, not one of them.
And here's what's really sad.
He beat Joe Sustain.
No, no.
He only had 123 votes.
Oh, he was lower.
He was just lower.
Okay, all right.
Now, I think he's an actual candidate still.
I could be wrong on that.
And we apologize to the Wells campaign for all this.
But be right behind Robbie Wells, Kamala Harris, with 96 votes.
Wow.
96 votes.
She spent all that money, that huge launch.
And here she is finishing behind Robbie Wells and Joe Sestak.
And Joe Sesteston.
You know what's really surprising to me?
That the suicide rate among candidates of any party isn't higher.
I mean, you know, I read something about Elizabeth Warren this morning that she is out.
She's the last person to leave.
She takes selfies and shakes hands with everybody until everybody is gone.
That's her big thing.
And I thought.
They're not selfies, but
what a waste of time, huh?
A selfie is a thing.
Do we all know what a selfie is?
Does anyone aware of a selfie?
You hold a camera
yourself.
That's why it's a selfie.
If it's someone else taking a picture of you, it's just a picture.
That's just a normal photograph.
It's not a selfie.
Well, it is if you're taking it yourself and somebody else is in it with you.
That's what she waits for.
No, she just is in a photo line.
Shut up.
It's just a photo line.
She's got a photographer taking pictures.
a photographer.
She's one of the people.
She's having beer.
That's true.
That's true.
Did you hear her baby?
Did you hear her inspirational story that came out after the erase?
No.
I was very impressed.
We don't have the audio of that by any chance, do we?
The inspirational story.
I heard her where she sounded to me like.
So I just want you to know I'm a great vice presidential candidate for anyone.
Did sound like what she was going for.
So she has this story.
She's like, you know what?
We're going on in this campaign.
You know why?
I had a young woman walk up to me the other day.
She's in college.
She was struggling.
She just needs someone to help her.
And she said, I just looked into my account and I found I only had $6,
but I wanted to bring you these $3.
I got half of it and I'm giving it to you because I believe in your campaign.
And she's like, that shows the power of our campaign.
Really, what it shows is you just took money from like a really poor person for a campaign that you know isn't going anywhere.
And now you're going to use this poor person's $3 to pay off debt of one of your aides' steak dinner from like three months ago that that you still owe.
Like, that is not a good story.
I mean, it is very typical of Elizabeth Warren to try to take some half of someone's money.
We know that is very much in her wheelhouse.
But I mean, this is your inspiration.
Like, oh, this poor person, they could have spent it on like a hamburger so they could have eaten tomorrow.
But instead, luckily, they're paying my campaign today.
The good news is she lost her apartment.
They repossessed her car, and I'm no longer a candidate.
Right.
So,
sucks to be her.
Congratulations, everybody.
I don't know.
I think it's a sad state of affairs, but I think if I'm a candidate and I go through this entire race and go through debates and fundraising and all that nonsense, you stay in and see what happens.
Look at what Klobuchar.
She was a zilch for this entire campaign, and then she gets 20% in New Hampshire.
We have a congressman who said,
a Democratic congressman said Trump will demolish a Democratic socialist candidate.
We will lose 48 states.
I think you're right.
This is the Glenbeck program.
You know, keeping a handle on your finances is both long and short-term games.
There's a lot of factors that come into play.
Tesla went up 300 points, down 243 points in four days.
Four days.
The persistent liquidity crisis of the Fed's repo operation saw massive oversubscription again twice just last week.
The Fed still refuses to say what's going on.
The Fed came out yesterday and begged the federal government and said, you've got to stop spending so much because we're not going to be able to bail anything out.
We're not going to be able to do anything with this kind of debt if and when the economy turns.
And the economy is going to turn.
Nobody's listening.
I mean, it is, it's
crazy, the news that's going on.
And if you ever thought it was crazy before, it's getting even more crazy.
When the world turns around and starts going the other way, I'll stop telling you to diversify right now.
You should diversify and make sure that you have money in gold or silver.
Call GoldLine now, 866 GoldLine, 866 GoldLine.
The world's going nuts.
Gold is stable.
The universal premiere of Glembeck's new format on Blazetv.com and on Facebook, YouTube.
Go there.
Go to Blaze TV.
Thank you.
It's 9 p.m.
Well, there you go.
So I want to talk to you a little bit about the moderate now that the Democrats have discovered it's Pete Buddha judge.
His policy says otherwise, but he is going to to try to position himself as a moderate.
And here he is explaining it on Morning Joe.
I wouldn't be able to govern effectively if I couldn't work well with independents and Republicans, but I didn't do it by pretending to be more conservative than I am.
I actually don't believe that the best way to reach independence today is through ideological centrism.
I mean, mathematically, you look at the numbers in my county, and it's very clear that there are a lot of people who voted for Barack Obama, Donald Trump, Mike Pence, and me, which indicates that voters, especially voters in the heartland where I come from, don't necessarily make their decisions by just lining everybody up on an ideological spectrum and then looking for the dot that's closest to where they are.
Well, he doesn't make it easy for conservatives to join his team.
He wants to abolish the death penalty, eliminate private prisons, raise the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour, cancel some student debt, eliminate the Electoral College, end offshore drilling as well, and oil and gas leases on federal land, ban all assault weapons, implement a buyback program, institute universal background checks, increase
red flag laws, revive the deferred action for childhood arrivals, that's the DACA program, offer citizenship for dreamers, legalize marijuana, decriminalize all drugs, increase wealth taxes, strengthen federal regulations on tech companies, avoid imposing tariffs, study reparations as an option, rejoin the Paris Climate Accord, and expand the Supreme Court to 15 justices.
But that's all he wants to do.
One position is even worse than the rest for
conservatives.
It's hard to overlook his position on abortion, partially because liberals and conservatives disagree on abortion probably more than any other issue, and it is a deep divide.
This is something that, I'm sorry, I can't change my mind on what life is.
I can't change, we believe that's killing a child.
You have to understand we're not going to go away.
And partially because he's vague and meandering on the subject.
He plays...
you know he plays the foil to trump what does trump do about abortion he takes a stand and he refuses to to budge.
Last month, he attended the
March for Life.
He was the first president to do so in its 47 years.
You know, people judge Trump by his words.
You should watch his actions.
They speak louder than words.
Buddha Judge, meanwhile, keeps his stamps so murky and open-ended that people get angry just trying to get an honest answer from him.
The Washington Post surveyed the Democratic candidates about whether or not there should be restrictions on abortions, and here's what Buddha Judge, as well as Warren and Sanders, said.
I support no restrictions.
That is as extreme as you can get.
At a Fox News Town Hall, executive director of Democrats for Life, Christian Day, asked Buddha Judge how people with her beliefs fit into the party.
He said, I'm not going to try to earn your vote by tricking you.
I'm pro-choice, and I believe a woman ought to be able to make that decision.
And the best I can offer you is that we can't agree on whether to, where to draw the line.
The next best thing we can do is agree on who should draw the line.
And in my view, it's the woman who's faced with that decision in her own life.
Then why can't I just decide to draw
my own line when it is my health, my health insurance, my doctor?
It doesn't make any sense.
Last week, he had this heated exchange with Megan McCain on ABC's The View.
Partial birth abortion is something that was coming up.
But like I said, Governor Northum, it was a huge controversy when he was running for governor.
And I think people, even Democrats, and there are a lot of pro-life Democrats in the country, want to know exactly where your line is, because you will be the president if you win.
Right, but my point is that it shouldn't be up to a government official to draw the line.
It should be up to the woman who is confronted with the truth.
Local women wanted to,
I don't know,
invoke infanticide after a baby was born, you'd be tempted to.
Does anybody seriously think that's what these cases were about?
They asked about the situation.
If this is a late-term situation, then by definition, it's one where a woman was expecting to carry the pregnancy to term.
Then she gets the most perhaps devastating news of her life.
We're talking about families that may have picked out a name, maybe assembling a crib, and they learn something excruciating and are faced with this
term happiness.
And I don't know what to tell them
morally about what they should do.
I just know that I trust her, and her decision, medically or morally, isn't going to be any better because the government is commanding her to do it.
Then all I would ask is for consistent, get the hell out of my life everywhere else.
Okay, so who is he?
We know he's gay, he's married, he's a church-going Episcopalian, a Rhodes Scholar, Navy veteran, Harvard grad.
Also, he plays the piano.
Turns out, a little like Robert Francis O'Rourke, he's also a bit of a poet.
He was student president at Harvard's Institute of Politics, and as a board member of
the Harvard College Democrats, he protested the war in Iraq.
One of his articles for the Harvard Crinson, he wrote these stirring lines in his poem about George W.
Bush.
The blue blood's in me through and through,
and not just cause of Yale.
It's Kenny Bunkport, Harvard, Andover.
And now there's my tale.
Well, think again, since now you know the shades of my true colors, you know that I ignore the tenants, Powells, and even the Mullers.
Instead, I heed the dicta of the most extremist right.
I kept them quiet in the race, but now I fight their fight.
Ladies and gentlemen, the poetry of Pete Budich
One of the biggest criticisms he's received beside his total lack of experience is that he's too well decorated with accomplishments and awards.
The New Republic was quick to label him a genius.
A month earlier, the same writer at the New Republic wrote an article praising Budajud's grand talk and small successes, which, according to the writer, is not an insult.
I don't know how.
The New York Times went straight for the throat, describing him as internetty smart,
with an intelligence reduced down to a collection of references and images.
And his unassuming face now seems to be everywhere.
The Blitz has felt less like a presidential campaign and more like a liberal arts variety show.
Or this insult.
The Mayor Pete Bubble should serve as a portent of what might happen if we strip away every objective measure of merit, however problematic or biased, in favor of how someone's idiosyncratic talents make us feel.
The Liberal Jacobin magazine also ran this article about his smartness.
The headline read, Have you heard?
Pete Buddhajudge is really smart.
The writer argues this notion of smart allows elites to recast inequality as meritocracy.
In this narrative, you're rich because you did well in high school and you went to Princeton, not because capitalism has taken something from someone else and given it to you.
This criticism of Buddhajudge is fairly common, leftists playing identity politics by accusing Buddhajudge of not being leftist enough.
But do I need to go over what he was for?
He wants people to see him as a moderate, the mayor of a Midwest city in a red state, and now a former mayor, former mayor Pete, as he bills himself.
He's the presidential candidate with the most military experience since George W.
Bush.
And maybe.
He began serving the U.S.
Naval Reserve in 2009 and was deployed to Afghanistan.
But in reality, he was a pencil pusher, and that's fine.
We need pencil pushers.
But, you know, it doesn't make him a war hero.
He did drive his commander from the air base
to Kabul a couple of times, so he did do that.
But all service to our country is great service.
As a result of his experience in the Navy, he has advocated for mandatory military and public service, another really bad idea.
His fellow leftists don't like it that Wall Street has been admiring him.
They also have a problem with the fact that he worked for McKinsey and Company, a consulting firm, a company with ties to the Saudi Arabians and Chinese government.
They even have consulted them on some of their less than savory projects.
But the knives really came out when his fellow elites accused him of not being gay enough.
Now, I don't even know what that means.
I think if you're sleeping with a man and you're a man, you're gay.
And I don't know the degree there.
I think it's
all in or nothing.
A journalist from Slate wrote, Is Buddha Judge the run-of-the-mill white male candidate?
Or does his sexuality set him apart?
The mammoth question can be broken down into smaller ones that get at why diversity matters.
Concluding that, quote, in a primary for the overwhelmingly pro-gay Democratic Party, Buddha Judge can be more accurately lumped in with his white male peers than anyone else.
As is the norm in media these days, the Marxist language pops up a lot in critical articles about Buddha Judge, but make no mistakes, he's a fan of Marxism.
A lot of journalists seem to think that as well educated white gay men, he represents a privileged class, the patriarchy.
They use a lot of blatantly Marxist terminology in a disparaging way.
Here's an old Persian saying: it says,
He's eaten so many snakes that he's become a viper.
Mayor Pete
wants you to think that he's just a cherub face that is just like you,
and he's going for the middle, even though he is not
a moderate candidate in any way.
But one thing is for sure.
The knives are coming out for him now.
They haven't come out for him before, because he really didn't have to take him down.
But now that he has placed one and two in Iowa and New Hampshire,
I can...
If you're really quiet, you can hear.
Can you hear the buzz around the phones?
Can you hear the searches being made by Democrats who are looking for dirt on Pete Buddha Judge?
Wow.
I wonder if they'll get a maybe a dossier from Steel this time.
American Financing NMLS 1-82334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
So how good is the housing market right now?
Well, it's this good.
Buyers can now purchase a home that is $48,000 more expensive than it was a year ago while paying the same principal and interest.
That's an incredible 16% increase in your buying power because of the lower interest rates, and it makes owning a home much more affordable.
So, if you've been thinking about buying a home, now might be the time to snag up a mortgage.
For that matter, maybe you're thinking of refinancing.
If you're already in a mortgage, I mean, if you got into your mortgage two years ago, probably time to refinance now and get this better interest rate.
Remember, 16% increase in buying power.
Maybe you can consolidate some debt or start working yourself into a better financial position by saving up to $1,000 a month or more.
Personal responsibility, homework.
That's what it requires when you're doing your big financial decisions.
And I can tell you the best way to start doing your homework is to call the mortgage consultants over at American Financing.
The call is only going to take 10 short minutes out of your day, but it could set you on the financial path of a lifetime.
Do it now.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.
This
is the Glenn Beck program.
I want to play a couple of pieces of audio here for you.
First of all, let me play the
MSNBC cut of Tour getting schooled by a Trump voter on Bernie's anti-life ideology.
Listen.
New Hampshire voters here who are really excited about Bernie Sanders, and they think that he's not divisive and that they think that he's got good ideas and they believe he's somebody who can accomplish those ideas.
They're the die-hard Bernie supporters.
He won this state in 2016, but then there are those that look at him and say, I'm just not so sure about him.
He kind of scares me.
Those ideas are too big.
I don't see how he can get them done with this Congress that we have, especially if the Republicans still still control the Senate.
They don't see it as plausible, but I want to talk to, we have a voter out here.
Sir, you were watching, so you're going to be on television now.
Can you tell us who you voted for?
Donald John Trump.
You voted for Donald John Trump.
Yeah.
Look at that.
Bernie Sanders is not appealing to you?
The whole
ideology would be destructive.
to the country.
It's anti-growth.
It's anti-family.
It's anti-American.
And as a Roman Catholic, it's anti-life.
Sir, thank you so much for telling us who you voted for.
We appreciate it.
Let's ask these other folks over here as well.
Let's get you off the screen right away.
You know, did you notice, though, that Bernie Sanders, a lot of people say he's not divisive.
And then she said, you know, and so the
idea, those who aren't sure, just think maybe
his ideas are too big.
They're not wrong.
They're just too big.
Interesting.
Now, here's another big thinker.
Here's Linda Sarsour.
Listen to this.
Palestine is a human rights and social justice issue.
It is an American issue because your taxpayer dollars are used.
So whether or not you think the electoral process is the way in which to help solve the Palestinian issue, maybe you think it's other ways, protesting, you know, online campaigns, humanitarian, the strategy is fine and we're all going to be on different sides of the strategy.
But in my opinion, on an issue like Palestine, you got to choose the side of the oppressed.
And if you're on the side of the oppressor, or you're defending the oppressor, or you're actually trying to humanize the oppressor, then that's a problem, sisters and brothers.
And we got to be able to say that is not the position of the Muslim American community.
Yeah,
not the position of the Muslim American community to, quote, humanize Israelis.
We should introduce her appropriately to Bernie Sanders surrogate, Linda Sarsour.
Make sure that that isn't part of that description because here's a guy who is the frontrunner of the Democratic Party who willingly is using her as a surrogate who's out there saying you can't humanize Jews.
I am not making this up.
The leadership of Saudi Arabia and Egypt are more pro-Israel than the leading candidates and the leaders of the Democratic Party right now.
That's saying something.
This is the Glenbeck Program.
