The Best Decade in Human History | Guest: James T. Harris | 12/27/19

1h 59m
Radio host James T. Harris joins the program to express his conviction of why the 2010s have been the greatest decade of all time. Economics and living standards are better than ever both at home and abroad, yet the Democrats and young socialists can’t see the forest for the trees. Allow us to review what an awful year it was for the mainstream media. The Covington kids, Jussie Smollett, the Mueller report, Greta Thunberg, Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes – the list of fiascoes just goes on and on. And Michael Moore telling you to fear two out of three white men (because they voted for Trump) is indicative of something much more sinister emanating from the Left.

We've just had the best decade in human history.

Seriously, let no one tell you that the second decade of the 21st century has been a bad time.

We are living through the greatest improvement in human living standards in history.

Extreme poverty has has fallen below 10% of the world's population for the first time.

Global inequality has been plunging as Africa and Asia experience faster economic growth than Europe and North America.

Child mortality has fallen to record low levels.

Famine virtually went extinct.

Malaria, polio, and heart disease are all in decline.

Little of this has made the news because good good news is no longer considered news.

James T.

Harris sitting in for Glenn Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

I am a conservative radio talker out of Phoenix, Arizona.

The name of my show is the Conservative Circus.

I am the ringmaster.

And the big top is the News Talk 550, KFYI.

We are on Monday through Friday, 4 to 7, and we just absolutely love talking about what is going on in our country.

We love celebrating the president of the United States because we really do believe that he is part of the good things that have been happening in the first d two decades of the 21st century now some of you may argue with me james how could you say this what about syria what about the ukraine what about

donald trump how can you possibly be saying that things

are

better

you know it was uh matt ritley he is a writer out of the UK.

He is part of the Conservative Party.

He came out with this article.

That's what I read from the opening of the show today.

We've just had the best decade in human history.

And the byline is something that I talk about all the time.

It didn't make the news because good news is no longer considered news.

This is something that we talked about yesterday on the Glenn Beck program.

How the news

is not out to uplift, how the news is not out to even report the truth let alone you know the truth the the story

no the news is right now

about destroying the president about ignoring his accomplishments

but if you were born between or before the 1980s you remember a world in which there was poverty, famine.

You remember the images

of some of the famine victims around the world, primarily in Africa.

You remember these things.

You remember the disease rates.

You remember global inequality.

It's something that the left still talks about in the face of human achievement.

When we turn our attention to the United States of America and we look at

what has gone down over the last few years, my goodness.

Here's just a few of President Trump's accomplishments.

Fasten safety belts.

Here we go.

Trump tax cuts and regulatory reform.

We have the USMCA trade agreement negotiated and passed.

We have Mexico halting illegal migration flows.

We have new Central American amnesty agreements.

We have border wall under construction.

We have lower energy cost.

We have lower and stabilized fuel cost.

We have the highest blue-collar wage gains in decades.

We have seen the largest resurgence of manufacturing jobs in the last 50 years.

We have the Korea-U.S.

trade agreement, the U.S.-Japan trade agreement.

We have the U.S.-China trade agreement phase one.

We have withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific multinationals.

That was called the TPP.

We have the dissolution of the Paris Climate Treaty.

I love that one.

Approval of Anwire energy developments.

We have five new gasoline refineries that are underway.

Do you remember when a refinery would go down in Texas, it would disrupt everything?

Well, the President Trump has addressed that.

We have U.S.

energy independence.

We are now the world's largest producer of energy.

We have the largest employed U.S.

workforce in our country's history.

150,000 employer registrations to U.S.

trade skill apprenticeships are underway.

Seven new industrial steel manufacturing plants.

We have a low and stable 1.5%

inflation.

We have the highest GDP growth amid industrial countries.

We have the highest consumer confidence in decades.

They're saying that this holiday between Black Friday and Christmas is a whopper, a blowout.

We have the highest small business confidence in decades.

7.3 million jobs available.

Right now.

We have one-year net employment gains of 2.4 million workers.

We have two Supreme Court justices because of President Trump.

We have over 176

lower court judges.

There have been no new wars since President Trump has been in office.

We have an embassy in Jerusalem.

We have North Korean hostages that were released.

ISIS has been destroyed.

The caliphate has been dismantled.

Al-Baghdadi is dead.

Ladies and gentlemen,

under this president,

our country is

winning.

Are you tired of winning?

I am not tired of winning.

All last year, when you turn on the television, we were told that a recession was coming.

All last year, no, we can go back further.

Upon the election of this president, we were told that the stock market is going to crash the stock market is at all-time highs as is NASDAQ

why

are we not celebrating this news

why are we not celebrating these triumphs

well in this country

It's because of Trump derangement syndrome.

That is a new phenomenon here and across the world.

We actually have very powerful people who are in control of the media

who have sworn to destroy this president because

they don't like him.

Project Veritas exposed Zuckerberg at CNN.

Project Veritas has CNN executives on tape

as well as the CEO talking about a daily campaign to destroy the President of the United States.

We see the derangement syndrome over on MSNBC.

We see the President's accomplishments ignored on ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS.

There's only half a Fox

that talks about the accomplishments of President Trump, and the liberal media cannot abide by it.

Now, we do have outlets on the right.

We have the Blaze.

We have outlets on the right.

We have conservative talk radio.

And we are starting to see how more and more Americans are migrating away from these mainstream media sources, from these liberal media sources, and they're looking elsewhere.

I invite them to come here.

I invite them to come to the circus.

I invite them to follow pundits and

conservative pundits.

Because you know what?

They may be biased.

They may tell you that they're conservative.

But they're not going to sit out and try to deceive you and lie to you.

And that's what we have been.

The media has been trying to deceive us in lying to us.

Now, there's more.

It's not just the fact that we have the left out there who is trying to destroy the president.

I'm sorry the media

We also have a real

strong

very dangerous surge in socialism

Socialism

well

the Democrat Party is pretty much gone socialist

I think that when we look at the 2020 candidates right now the strongest candidate is is Wait for It.

Wait for it?

Bernie Sanders.

And I'm laughing because that ought to be absolutely ridiculous.

He should have been laughed out of the building last go-round.

But Bernie Sanders cut a deal.

He could have called out Hillary Clinton's corruption.

He could have called out how that whole thing was rigged with the DNC and Debbie Wasserman Schultz back there in 2016, but he did not.

And what did he get out out of it?

Two extra houses and a book contract.

He's now a millionaire.

And because Bernie Sanders is a millionaire, he no longer complains about millionaires.

He complains about billionaires, you see.

And if Bernie gets to cut another deal, he won't

complain about billionaires.

He'll be complaining about gazillionaires.

But the real thing is dangerous

is not that Bernie Sanders is going to win the Democrat nominations and then

win the presidency.

No, no, no.

The real danger is that Bernie Sanders is amassing an army, a movement,

and he's handing it over to

AOC,

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

And AOC

is stuck on the stupidity of socialism.

We just talked about how our country has been absolutely on a high the last two or three years.

We've talked about how the first two decades of the 21st century have been on point.

Coming up next, there are people who don't believe that.

There are people who believe the opposite.

And we're going to listen to them.

And I hope that you feel that this is

dangerous.

My name is James T.

Harris.

I'm sitting in for Glenn Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

remember this sale ends December 31st simply safeback.com

you are listening to the Glenn Beck program my name is James T Harris we've just had the best decade in human history We have seen problems that have plagued humanity for for decades, for centuries, get addressed.

We've seen amazing economies under this president.

We have seen amazing economic growth.

We have seen

poverty be addressed.

And yet, we have a group of people out there.

And what's frightening to me, we have a group of young people out there that are not seeing what we see.

You see, I'm old enough to remember the so-called energy crisis.

I'm old enough to remember even in odd days to buy gasoline.

I'm old enough to remember Jimmy Carter's malaise.

I remember Jimmy Carter sitting in that cardigan sweater telling us to turn down the thermostat in our house to like 68 degrees.

My father was like,

Well, if there's an energy crisis, I'm going to use up what I got.

He cranked that baby up to 75, 76.

I remember

President Reagan coming into office and reversing things, the Reagan boom.

I remember the Democrats trying to take credit for it.

We are living in a period of time right now, unlike anything, well, I will say since the 60s, when I was a kid.

We have a whole generation of people coming up right now who do not understand

how good it is.

Oh, they experienced the horrible economy under Obama,

but they don't believe it was bad.

You have a whole generation,

or say half of a generation that was set back by that.

But they don't believe that that is bad because the television told them that it was good.

Now we have another wave here.

This wave is even more frightening to me because, in the face of this economic prosperity, we have charlatans out there who are singing the siren songs of socialism.

And right now,

the most popular one

is AOC.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

And here she is on the campaign trail for Bernie Bernie Sanders.

Because we know once again that this moment is not about one four-year presidential campaign.

This is a movement decades in the making.

It's a movement of anti-racist black liberation activists, of immigration activists, of queer liberation activists, of the labor movement.

It is a movement of all people and causes come together,

and we have to take it to the starting line

because that's what we're fighting for.

Alexandria Casio-Cortez.

And here we go once again with identity politics.

We talked about that yesterday.

Identity politics.

Black liberation.

LGBT.

Anything but white.

Now, if you're white and you're male, you're not part of this movement.

If you're white and you're male, you're part of the problem.

But I want you to listen to what she said.

This is a movement decades in the making.

Decades in the making.

She's telling you the truth.

She's telling you, we're not going to get it all this time,

but we're going to get it.

We're going to get it in the future.

We need to listen to this.

We need to understand that this is real.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

This election is about the start of this work

because we're nowhere near there right now.

So we need to fight to start this

work.

The establishment of an advanced society

so much for fundamental transformation she's talking about the start of a of an advanced

society

we're talking about trying to to to uh uh change we're not we're not acknowledging the fact that we are in an advanced society no no no no no because

the young socialists say otherwise.

And then in the middle of the speech,

a chant broke out.

Thank you.

Oh, my friends.

Dear Americans, I want you to take this woman seriously.

I really don't believe

that she was a real deal.

I didn't believe that in the beginning.

When you hear about how she got involved in the race in the first place, it was sort of like a casting call.

She's an actress, she had some people who are handling her who would tell her what to say.

I think that that has changed.

She's studied up now,

and she understands the movement when she sees it.

And I do believe we're going to be seeing Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in the very near future when she's old enough to make that run.

888-727-BECK is the telephone number if you want to weigh in.

We are living in a great economy, and yet we have people who are complaining about it.

People who are saying that it's backwards, progress is backwards.

My name is James T.

Harris, sitting here for Glenn Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

You know, there's a saying in business: if you don't know your numbers, you don't know your business.

And now, the rapid pace of business, it's hard to keep up with those numbers.

Can you afford to expand?

Can you make that new hire?

Can you launch a new ad campaign?

How's revenue pacing compared to last year?

Now, most companies don't have a clear picture of their finances, so they make business decisions without that critical information based on their gut, or worse, their fear.

And that's why many businesses fail.

My name is James C.

Harris, sit again for Glenn Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

We're talking about what's happening in our culture, in our society, in Western civilization.

As a matter of fact, we started talking about what's going on in the world in the last 20 years.

In the last 20 years, the last two decades have just been amazing for our planet.

Now, I'm starting to sound kind of like a liberal here with the whole global warming and climate extinction.

But

the climate, the planet has been doing very, very well, and people are absolutely in denial about it.

Why?

Because it doesn't fit their narrative.

And of course, the media, they're going to pick up the negative, the negativity and they're going to spread it so if you are a watcher of television if you are a consumer of of news what we call the news in this country chances are you're not a very happy person or you're a person that's like racked with fear

And a lot of these crowds that

the ALCs and the Bernie Sanders are speaking to are young and they're full of fear and they're full of doubt.

I got to give it to Bernie Sanders, though.

He pulled in ALC.

she's doing some campaigning for him because he just had a heart attack a couple of months ago.

I thought that that was going to pretty much knock him out of the race, but here he is.

We have seen a senator, I call her Senator Spreading Bull.

That's a Senator Warren.

She's getting caught up in lies, but what really has destroyed her was her health care plan.

Talking about trillions and trillions and trillions, nobody wants to hear that,

especially Wall Street, especially

captains of industry.

But Bernie Sanders, he is out there.

Now,

even though

we have the media saying that Joe Biden is a frontrunner, I do not believe that.

Joe Biden can't even pull a crowd of 10 people.

I'm not lying.

He got a crowd, what was it, eight the other day?

Come on.

This is a pretty healthy crowd out there for Bernie Sanders.

And Bernie Sanders, you know, with the ALC, our campaign is not only about defeating Donald Trump.

Our campaign is about a political revolution.

It's about transforming this country.

What is it with the left with fundamental transformation?

Isn't that what Obama was out there saying?

We want to fundamentally transform the country.

What's wrong with it?

And what I have to say about this latest attempt to transform the country, you're trying to transform prosperity.

See, that's what socialism does.

It takes prosperous prosperous nations and it ruins them?

And there are absolutely plenty of examples of this all around, and the media ignores it, purposefully, does not show us what happened in Venezuela.

Purposefully,

our campaign is about transforming this country.

It's about creating a government and an economy that works for all people, not just the 1%.

Meanwhile,

when we look at states in the Union that are run by the left, run by liberals, by socialists, what kind of shape are they in?

Right now,

one of the biggest disasters out there is California.

If you live in California, please forgive me.

I do not mean to disparage anything that I'm about to say.

I don't mean be hard on you, but we have to acknowledge some things here.

We do.

Your state is being run really suckally right now.

Just bad.

Horrible.

Just bad.

It's horrible.

You go to San Francisco.

You go to Los Angeles.

I was there recently.

I was in the San Francisco area to see my Green Bay Packers get destroyed by the San Francisco 49ers.

It was a horrible experience.

And then from there, I went went up to San Francisco

just to double down on my misery.

You could say, what a beautiful city.

What great potential.

But we all know what's going on.

You go to certain parts of that city.

The last time I was on the Glenbeck show, I told you something that was encouraging because there was

an individual who I really don't, you know, hang around in this world.

But he was like singing the praises of Trump begrudgingly.

he was talking about how Trump is bringing people together.

And the one thing that's true about Trump is he's about America first.

Now things are so bad in California.

The economy is so weak.

Housing problems, homelessness problems, disease problems that you actually

have the governor of California, Gavin Newsom,

not taking on personal responsibility for himself no

he's lashing out at President Trump he's saying that it's President Trump's fault

why is it Donald Trump's responsibility to take care of the housing crisis that California well it's he's president

right and I imagine he cares about people in the United States and he cares about the largest state in the United States of America.

And I imagine if you're president of the United States, any leader like myself feels a deep sense of responsibility to address some of the most vexing issues in the country.

In that respect, you would imagine some accountability and some responsibility to be supportive.

It sounds like you're deflecting towards him, that he's the answer to the problem when the housing, the prices of California housing and the ability to afford it is not matching up.

I would encourage you to take a look at what we've been doing, which you may not be familiar with.

And I imagine if you did take a look at what we just did in the last year, you would see a a very different

picture be painted in your mind.

Yeah,

if you looked at what we did, it would be a different picture in your mind.

What do you mean what you've done?

I'm looking at how it is.

But notice he's saying, you know, the president, this is the biggest thing, the president should be concerned about it.

The fact of the matter, the truth of the matter is the president is concerned about it, and we're going to have Ben Carrison with housing starting to move in with some innovative ideas to address the issue.

My point is simply this.

Gavin Newson, he's not addressing the issue.

We got other failed governors and failed mayors of blue cities.

They don't take responsibility.

Here's another great example.

You got Jack Young.

He is the mayor in Baltimore.

And as you know, Baltimore has a, they got a crime problem.

They got a murder problem.

When Jack Young was asked about this, here's how he responded.

There's not

any lack of leadership on my part.

I've been moving the city forward because I'm not committing the murders.

And that's what people need to understand.

I'm not committing the murders.

The police commissioner has not committed it.

The council is not committing it.

So how can you fault leadership?

It's not my fault.

I didn't do the murders.

I didn't commit any murders.

The police chief, they didn't commit any murders.

Why are you blaming me?

I didn't do it.

Well, Mayor, what are you going to do about the crying problem?

Why are you asking me?

Why don't you ask the people who are committing the crimes?

See?

That's what we get with

liberal leadership.

We get excuses.

We get deferring.

We don't get them embracing the situation.

We don't get them owning the problem.

They come in, they screw things up, and then all of a sudden, people start fleeing the state.

California fleeing the state, and guess where they're showing up

right next door, right in Arizona.

We don't want this.

I'm actually trying to

advance some legislation that if you are a refugee from the state of California, you are not allowed to vote when you move into a new state until you understand the political process, until you understand why you were fleeing.

Yeah, you can't vote.

We got to bring some balance to the force here.

You got a lot of folks who are fleeing these liberal states and they're coming over into what they go on to call the red states, flyover country, and messing that up with their liberal policies.

With no idea of how these policies have ruined, they ruined.

There are parts of California that are just ruined, and it's nothing more than policies.

Not knowing how

to have policies, not embracing economic policies that are going to make your area grow.

It's like if, listen,

AOC, Alexandria Casio-Cortez, listen, Bernie Sanders.

How about if you all go into California and show those politicians how things want to be done?

Use that as a laboratory for democracy.

And if it works out, then we can take you seriously when it comes to running the country.

They can't do it

because they can't do it.

Because socialism fails every single time it is tried.

And liberal policies wreck

countries and they wreck states.

We have a little impeachment update here.

Some news broke.

I knew about this news already.

I think it's been hinted around the country.

But when it comes to the steel dossier

that was used to basically

spy on the president's campaign, well, we got some more deep staters.

We've got some more establishment folks who are being exposed.

My name is James T.

Harris.

Sit again for Glenn Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

11 student groups, including the Harvard College Democrats, signed a petition accusing their school paper of showing cultural insensitivity for contacting ICE for a comment after a protest against the agency on campus.

That's it.

They just reached out for a comment.

Thankfully, there is something we can do about the madness and the destruction of our civilization by these woke activists.

It's as simple as the service you use every day.

One of the things that I love about living in the great state of Arizona is we find ourselves at ground zero for many of the shenanigans that go on.

And one of the great sources that I like to read in Arizona is an outfit called the Arizona Daily Independent.

If you want to know what's happening in the great state of Arizona, if you want to know what's happening even nationally, this little outfit breaks a lot of stories.

And

what I love about them is they're independent.

You can get some conservative viewpoints.

You can get some Green Party.

You can get some socialist even at times, but it's honest.

It's not propaganda.

It's honest.

Either they're coming from the people who really think this way.

So it can put something on your mind.

But their content is on point.

And back in the day, we're talking a couple years ago, I was talking to some folks from the Arizona Daily Independent, and the subject was Senator John McCain.

Senator John McCain.

And the speculation was that

he,

being a never Trumper, and he was out there never

Trumping before the whole Never Trumper thing became a thing.

He was one of the, he'd be the grandfather, the grandpuba

of never Trumpers.

The rivalry, no, that's not the word.

What is this word?

The Hatfield and the McCoy's.

What was that?

That wasn't a rivalry.

That was a feud.

Yeah, the feud

between President Trump and Senator John McCain is epic.

It's going to go down as one of the great ones in the country.

And the hatred that the senator had for

the president is epic.

If you remember, one of the promises that President Trump made is that he was going to repeal health care, Obamacare.

And then we got the whole campaigning on repeal and replace.

And even though we were dealing with a lot of never Trumpers, a lot of people who were establishment Republicans,

the president was able to get, with the help of the Republican Party, you know, get down to a vote of whether or not we're going to repeal or skinny repeal Obamacare.

In the middle of the night,

we'll never forget this for those of us who are political junkies.

We said it, but we watched this.

In the middle of the night, it came down to John McCain.

It was orchestrated to come down to John McCain.

And he walked up to the front of the Senate and put his thumb down.

Thumb down.

And that was the vote that kept Obamacare

alive.

Right?

How many of you think that he did that for the good of the country?

See, he ran his campaign on repeal.

So now here he is not repealing.

And everybody knows it was despite the president.

You have to understand this club.

This president club and the president wannabe club, or I tried to run for the president.

That's a very, very tight organization, a tight outfit.

And they don't forget.

And John McCain felt as though he was insulted by

the president, and rightfully so.

But the dossier, the steel dossier, that made up garbage

from the Hillary Clinton campaign that the FBI used to spy on the Trump administration, yeah,

John McCain's fingerprints are all over it.

The IG report reveals that the steel funnel claims through John McCain after the FBI dropped them.

It's amazing.

Maybe this is why we have the Senate that doesn't want to really investigate this.

Maybe this is why Lindsey

Graham is

hesitant to look into this.

I don't know.

But we got deep state players.

We've got never Trump Republicans.

And their fingers are all over this cold civil war.

After 11 years of hemorrhaging money, the museum, a 250,000 square foot temple dedicated to journalists by journalists, will be closing.

Its last day is December the 31st, 2019.

The amount of money that has been poured into this temple, $650 million,

you know,

in the effort to prop up,

this museum is finally collapsed.

And

I'm going to give you three guesses who the media is blaming for its collapse.

This has been a terrible year for the mainstream media.

It's been a terrible decade.

They've been exposed.

And we're going to talk about the stories that they got absolutely horribly wrong.

I'm a radio radio talker out of Phoenix, Arizona.

The name of my show is the Conservative Circus.

I am the ringmaster and the big top is News Talk 550K FYI.

We're on Monday through Friday, 7.

I'm sorry, 4 to 7.

You can also follow me on Twitter at James T.

Harris or find me on Facebook at James T.

Harris Media.

I don't like the media.

But James T.

Harris, you're in the media.

Yes.

Yes, I am.

But we have really seen how biased uh the media has become over the last i would say like 10 years

there was that period where we believed everything we saw on the television we we there were big three and they all said the same thing and it weren't to be questioned

One of the things that I actually loved about this museum in Washington, D.C.

called the Nuseum is that you really did.

You could follow that thing.

You could go in there and you could see the moments of your life.

because that's what the news media actually does.

You can remember those big moments, the space shuttle blowing up.

You can remember those huge moments, those turning points in history, as I used to call them.

That's not what we're getting anymore.

The turning points in history are debacles.

And 2019 was full of them.

Let's go back to last January.

We've got the Covington Catholic kids.

The media ripped apart a 16-year-old student seen in a video smirking at a Native American activist on the National Mall during a school trip.

It was part of the March for Life.

Oh, this young kid was marked.

He was an American of European descent.

He had on a Make America Great Again hat or other folks around him.

And he was out in DC marching for life against abortion.

Nick Sandman was his name, Junior at the school.

And he was depicted as someone who harassed along with his peers.

Members of the black Hebrew Israelites.

Remember, they just got

in a big fat mess where it committed murder.

Latest shooting.

Not only was the media wrong about that, they continue to be wrong about that.

You got Nick Sandman suing.

I hope he wins.

The media vilified Sandman.

And everybody was a part of it.

Some of the people that we know but love just were all in on this kid.

Then we have February, Juicy Smollett.

That's what Dave Chappelle calls him.

Juicy Smollett.

You know that French actor?

From the TV show Empire?

Ask his name.

His name is Justice Smollett.

And he was a guy who

said that he got beat up in Chicago in the middle of the night.

It was like sub-zero weather.

And they poured bleach on him and put a noose around his neck.

And they were like Trump supporters.

And they yelled, you know, in Chicago, this is MAGA country, as they were running.

And the media bought that hook, line, and sinker.

We were getting lectured to

about how hard it is for

black gay men

in

this country.

Stop laughing.

My producer is in here laughing.

Stop laughing.

This is a serious moment.

That's right.

Until

the story started falling apart.

literally falling apart.

And then from that story, we found out that Juicy Smollett had some very, very powerful friends because they got all these charges dropped.

And we found out that they had close ties to the Obama administration.

But people didn't want to talk about that very much.

They downplayed that very much.

It's a very bad look.

This episode illustrates the double standard that's in our society.

It's okay to lie

if it's in the name of left-wing

social justice

in March of last year, how can we forget the Mueller report?

This is perhaps one of the media's most magnificent mistakes of the year.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller unveiled his findings from a two-year unlimited resource investigation, completely exonerating the President of the United States.

In other words, the report was a big fat nothing burger.

And it was pushed for years through in the media.

Every single night, there was a new bombshell, the investigation.

Nothing.

And I believe even that was a huge big bomb news event.

That is what, that's at the point in time when the

Democrat Party started to go insane.

They had put all of their marbles in that.

Actually, I was about to mix metaphors.

They put all their eggs in that basket.

I don't think you put marbles in baskets, do you?

Maybe if you're a kid, try and get one put to the other, but why would you even have that?

But I digress.

April, the White House correspondence dinner.

This was a story.

This was hilarious because, you know, the president didn't show up.

Why should he show up, you know, to get his assets kicked off and just get bandied around?

As a matter of fact, I think it was at one of those correspondence dinners during the Obama administration that motivated President Trump to jump into the race.

Oh, they ridiculed him.

He got the last laugh.

This year at the Nerd Prom, all they could do was openly attack President Trump, and they complained that he wasn't there to take it.

In May.

You got Joe Biden, old creepy Uncle Joe.

All of these videos come out, you know, of Joe nuzzling nuzzling next to women and nuzzling little girls and sniffing them.

What was crazy is the media started making excuses for him.

The media effectively killed the whole Me Too era by supporting Joe Biden in this moment.

In this moment, that would have like, it would have, it would have taken most politicians out.

This was the strongest chance that the Democrats have to defeat President Trump.

That's what was believed at the time.

So they ran to protect creepy Uncle Joe, making May the month that the Me Too movement died.

In June of this year,

we've got the media standing up for Antifa.

It was the most amazing thing you've ever seen.

You had Don Lemon on CNN

explaining it, saying, yo, it's right there in the name, Antifa, which means anti-fascist is what they're fighting for.

Antifa that starts riots on college campuses.

Antifa that keeps people from speaking

was upheld by the media, was upheld by

the news anchor over at CNN.

This one escaped my attention.

This was because in July, I was busy watching my son get married to his beautiful bride.

So, the 50th anniversary of the moon landing,

I missed that.

But it turns out that

while we were celebrating, most of us regular people were celebrating one of humankind's human civilization's greatest achievements:

putting a man on the moon.

The media condemned the event because

it was mostly white male-dominated.

You see,

there was no

uh there was no diversity

you know yeah it didn't look like Star Trek you didn't have Sulu you didn't have Lieutenant Uhura you didn't have Spock or nothing like that all you had was white men white men put a man on the moon and the media In this era has to castigate them and I'm not done with this one because this one is just amazing to me white people being racist against other white people is the end thing.

In August, we saw Chris Cuomo go berserk after somebody called him Fredo.

They said that Fredo, the media, the Fredo is now the new N-word.

The new

N-word.

Calling somebody of Italian descent Fredo is like calling

me a ninja.

There are a few more big events that took place over the media.

And

I'm going to tell you what they are.

Because I have come to a conclusion that there is a solution to this media problem.

Hiring can be a really slow process.

Dylan Miskowitz needed to hire a director of coffee for his organic coffee company, but he was having trouble finding qualified applicants.

So he switched to ziprecruiter.com.

ZipRecruiter doesn't depend on candidates finding you, it goes out and finds them for you.

Its technology identifies people with the right experience and invites them to apply to your job so you get qualified candidates fast.

Dylan posted his job on ZipRecruiter.

He said he was impressed on how quickly he had the candidates apply.

He also used ZipRecruiter's candidate rating feature to filter his applicants so he could focus on the most relevant ones.

And that is how Dylan found his new director of coffee in just a few days.

This is why four out of five employers who post a job on ZipRecruiter get a quality candidate through the site within the first day and they sing ZipRecruiter's praises.

See why ZipRecruiter is effective for businesses of all sizes.

Sitting in for Glenn Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

We are looking back on 2019.

We are looking back on the media's greatest disasters.

And what I want to point out to you is how we should not be taking the media's word for anything because

they lie.

Because they're not news, they're propaganda.

Case in point.

In September of 2019,

we have the media making a puppet out of Greta Thunberg.

Now, I'll tell you, when I first saw this story, I was like, wait, something's not right here.

First of all, I got a real issue with the left using children.

And they love to do it.

They love to do it.

I remember doing the 2016 elections,

we had commercials out there of little kids, little Hispanic kids, cursing out the president, using the F F word,

throwing up the fingers and stuff.

I'm like, what is this?

Somehow President Trump is a racist, so it makes it okay for children to be disrespectful.

I got a real problem with children walking out, you know, and protesting.

I got a real huge problem with that.

Maybe that's my father and me.

Who

skipping out of school.

That's what it used to be called skipping out of school.

Now it's called, you know, protesting.

We're protesting the climate catastrophe.

So we get to walk out.

And now you've got, instead of trying to stop them, instead of barring the door, you've got teachers and you've got the parents walking out with the students.

Greta Thunberg,

16-year-old climate activist on the

autism spectrum.

She kicked off this campaign to save the world

from climate change.

She sailed across the Atlantic on a on a I guess a sailboat that had

solar panels so they could watch TV and all that kind of stuff.

But no sailboat.

They call it a solar boat, even though it was the wind that was like propelling it.

And she lectured the world and the United Nations of the imminent threat to humanity.

You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words.

Wow.

Immediately, we started seeing memes pop up of, you know,

real children in

terrible situations around the world talk about your stolen dreams.

But this is what the left does.

And it was depressing for me to watch this little girl just get puppeted all across the stage.

Putting her in front as if because she's a child, we're going to listen to her.

The climate change experts in 2019 is a 16-year-old girl skipping out of school and a former bartender masquerading as a congresswoman, ALC.

It's embarrassing.

Embarrassing for the media.

October, we've got the Washington Post.

This was terrible, glowing.

They gave a glowing obituary for a former ISIS leader.

Can you imagine them doing that for Osama bin Laden?

No.

But because that's because Obama, you know, went after Osama bin Laden.

We have the New York Post, or I should say the Washington Post, I'm sorry,

talking about

a dangerous terrorist.

They called him an austere religious leader, religious scholar.

And even after they caught the mistake, I mean, how can you make that kind of mistake?

How could you say something?

How could you even go there?

Well, it shows you their bias.

It shows you their hatred for the president.

In November, one of the big scandals, which is horrible,

the media, ABC buried the Jeffrey Epstein story.

The memes really popping up all over the place.

The fact that people would end their interview you know they could be talking about cupcakes and they would talk around and say yo jeffrey epstein didn't kill himself

forced the media you know to uh kind of reevaluate here first of all we had epstein who killed himself mysteriously in jail the cameras were turned off the uh uh the uh the guards you know they were sleeping on the job

It's just a coincidence, we were told.

Nobody bought it.

Nobody still buys it.

As we're finding out, more and more powerful people.

We got the Prince Andrew, he's in trouble.

The media is doing their damnedest to

keep Bill Clinton out of this.

He was on the Lita Express.

How many times?

How many times did he go to Pedophile Island?

Hello.

ABC buried the story.

And when Project Veritas

put it back out there and they had to they had that ABC anchor who was frustrated because she had the story.

She had all of it.

That was all on Project Veritas.

And then look what happened.

The reporter, I think her name was Amy Robach, had to basically go and recant.

She wanted to keep a job.

She had to recant.

Oh, there was a mistake by the song.

She told the truth when she was taped, when she was recorded.

But when

that

whistleblower,

when a whistleblower put it out there, oh she had to do a 180 she had to back down off of that

and it's amazing because

that story the Jeffrey Epson story is about powerful people being corrupt

it does have to do with sex slavery

it is involved with pedophilia

We're very powerful people and the media spiked it

Just like the media spiked Juanita Broderick's story about how she was raped by

then Governor Clinton.

Then we have the December one, the DOJ and the IG report blows up the Steele dossier.

And for years, the media talked about how the, you know, the Steele dossier is true.

It's real.

This is the one where you accuse the president of urinating on a bed in Moscow to try to shame Obama, whatever that mess was.

It was all fake, it was all made up.

What does this tell us?

These stories, one per month, 2019,

tell us that the media has lost all of their credibility.

We are not to listen to them again.

We need to question every single thing that they put on the television, and we need to ask why did they put it up there.

That's the beginning.

Cut the television set off and begin to think for ourselves.

My name is James T.

Harris.

We're filling in.

We covered a lot of ground on today's show so far.

We talked about how this is the best two decades of the 21st century.

We talked about how the world has improved, how life has improved around the world, how our country is on fire, red hot fire, the economy, the jobs.

We talked about still, we're having to deal with the rise of socialism.

One of my favorite topics is to beat up on the media.

I know I'm part of the media.

I'm talking about the electronic man.

I'm talking about television.

I think that television is a scourge on our culture, a scourge, a world scourge.

I think that what we're seeing out of the media right now

is the worst of it.

Now, I just talked about the news.

I didn't talk about what's happening on Netflix, what's coming out of Hollywood.

But if you want to weigh in on any of those things, the way to reach me is to dial

seven two seven b e c k

and we have some callers who have been waiting to get on this let's talk to darwin in colorado welcome to the glenn beck program

thanks james um i look at it in a one way i grew up during the hippie era and if you look at socialism that's what they wanted back then and the main thing is they want everybody to be the same but they don't want to work for anything.

Absolutely true.

I mean,

they want to redistribute the wealth.

Yeah, exactly, but they don't want to do anything for it.

It's kind of like the participation award.

You know, everybody gets a

participation award, but you don't want to ever work harder to do anything.

It takes away all motivation.

I absolutely agree with you, Darwin.

And the last time I was filling in for Glenn Beck was over the Thanksgiving holiday.

And we actually talked about how the pilgrims had to deal with this.

When they first came over, they were kind of with the commune lifestyle.

They were talking about socialism all for one and one for all.

And it took a number of deaths for them to kind of rethink this whole thing.

I think that Thanksgiving is a wonderful opportunity to talk about how capitalism not only saved the colonists but became the driving engine to this great country that we live in today.

And you had some pilgrims who were trying to live off of other people as well, supposed to show up for work.

They faked like they were sick or they didn't show up until they got their own plot, until they got their own business.

And then they realized as much as they put in, they will get out.

You're right.

This whole, it was called the hippies in the 1960s, but this whole mindset, this ideology has been around for a very long time.

Thank you very much for the call.

Let's go to Ron in Pennsylvania.

Ron, welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Hey, glad to be here, James.

Hey, my friend.

I'm just one self-employed little guy out here, but when I voted for Trump and he said I want to drain the swamp, I was not under the illusion that he was just going to drain the swamp of the Democrats and liberals.

I

wholeheartedly expected him to do what he's doing.

And that's drained that entire swamp of uselessness.

When I pay my taxes and I talk to my other regular humans, I don't think one of those government officials knows what end of a broom to hold, even if you hit them with it.

They're utterly just embarrassing that I work as hard as I work.

and my friends work as hard as they work.

And then we look at what you're doing.

I'm like, dude, grow up, get a real job, and quit whining.

James, thanks for your point about the McCain issue with the Never Trumper.

But everybody listening to my voice right now, they're listening, saying the exact same thing.

Well, what do I get for my dollar?

Can you explain what I'm getting?

Well, no, you can't, especially if we're talking about government.

And I don't want to break bad on government workers.

As a matter of fact, during the Obama era, you had parents encouraging their children, go into government.

You're going to get paid more if you own a business.

There's less risk.

You get paid more money.

You get more time off.

It's sort of like a cottage industry to go into government work.

But as things begin to reverse, Ron, you're seeing that with a strong economy, the people who do take risks, people who do build their businesses up, they look at people who are basically doing very little and getting paid very lot.

And it's because of government taxation.

And they look on that with some disdain and to your earlier point about this president draining the swamp and it not being all democrat it's being democrat and republican i couldn't agree with you more i remember looking at a paul ryan on 60 minutes right after the president was elected and i was excited because i'm like now we've been fighting this fighting for this for years so now we're gonna get mcconnell and we're gonna get you know uh ryan and we're gonna get together and we're going to move forward.

How wrong was I?

Then all of a sudden we get all of the retirements of these Republicans that didn't want to work with the president because they probably thought that he had been colluding with the Russians.

We get all of this noise

and then we begin to see, wow, a lot of these Republicans who are quitting.

are never Trumpers.

They're part of the swamp.

And so you are correct.

When When President Trump said he was going to drain the swamp, he was not being political.

He was not being party affiliated.

He was talking about draining the corruption out of Washington, D.C.

And corruption is both sides of the aisle in Washington, D.C.

They come together as a team.

And we thought it was just politicians.

Oh my goodness, Iron's got me going here.

We thought it was just politicians.

No, we've got never Trumper magazines that have

bit the dust.

We've got institutions,

that feed off of the money of Washington, D.C.

that are now in jeopardy.

This thing is a,

well, what did Glenn Beck said?

It's like Hydra.

It's got many heads.

And President Trump is just lopping them off.

That's why we need to continue to pray for the president.

That's why we need to continue to pray for this country.

I don't think any of us knew how deep this went.

But boy, oh boy, are we ever finding things out?

The telephone number is 888-727-BECK.

If you want to weigh in on the conversation,

one of the things that

we talked about a little bit yesterday that kind of had me flummoxed was the fact that you have

this attack on Christianity.

I'm sorry, you have the Christian institution attacking the president you got christianity today saying you know this president needs to be impeached because he doesn't show any type of uh morality he doesn't have values i saw something that really

really gave me pause yesterday I talked about how we got a, we got a Irverend Al Sharpton, we got these race hustlers, these charlatans out there, they call themselves all holy.

They never talk about the scripture unless they're trying to bastardize it and turn it upside down.

And this is what I hate whenever Trumpers, you know, Republican establishment folks go after the president.

It sort of like gives everybody else permission to pile on.

And in all these lefty shows, you had the representatives from Christianity Today on, you know, the Christian posts on talking about values versus politics.

And then Reverend Al Sharpton.

Reverend Al Sharpton started talking about evangelicals.

What?

We had Mark Galley, the editor of Christianity, today on Politics Nation last night, and he made it very clear this is not a political position.

It's a moral one.

And by raising it to that level and putting it in that perspective, he not only exposes the president, but he exposes a lot of the evangelical leaders, saying, I support the president on his judicial nominees.

I support the president on a lot of things, which I don't, but he does.

He says, but you can't get away from his immorality.

You can't get away from his divisiveness, his lying, his race baiting.

He laid it out, and I think there's a scripture that said, What profits a man to gain the world and lose his own soul?

He's actually challenging them: Are you bargaining and selling your soul for some judicial appointments and some other things that the right wants, but you've given up the soul of the church?

What do we stand for?

The Reverend here said he thinks, the reverend said, I think there's a scripture out there.

What does it gain the world?

Right.

Oh, okay.

You think that.

And then he starts to, you know, turn it around and use this to bash evangelicals.

And I think it's a devastating blow.

This is a magazine, Mika, that was founded by Billy Graham.

They also supported the impeachment of Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton.

So, why all of a sudden is it so controversial with these leaders that they would come for the impeachment of Donald Trump when they did it to Bill Clinton?

The evangelical leaders weren't insulted.

When they did it to Richard Nixon, they weren't.

The reason they're so offended is it's exposing all of them that they would take this shameless conman

over

principles that they're preaching in the holy season as we celebrate Jesus.

They would sell Jesus out if they thought they could get something from it is the inference he's saying from his editorial.

And that's sad on many levels.

Holy cow.

I was just telling you yesterday how the left plays this.

How in the world do you expect me to take any of this seriously when it's coming out of the mouth of Al Sharpton?

Conman, you mean like Tawana Brawley?

Conman, you mean like Freddie's fashion mart?

This is the guy who shakes down corporations.

Conmen.

And why are they using Al Sharpton?

Why does Al Sharpton have a job at MSNBC?

Why was Al Sharpton one of

the Obama White Houses, like one of their captains when it came to civil rights?

Why?

No, this attack continues, but it is fraudulent.

And I'll tell you why coming up next.

If you experience pain on a daily basis, I know exactly how you feel.

It can be debilitating.

It can control your life.

The aches are easy to understand.

When it really hurts to do the basic chores, emotionally, the effects of pain can be just as dramatic.

I have spoken to so many people in this audience that have started to take Relief Factor.

The change emotionally is as dramatic as the physical relief, maybe even more.

As you might know, Tanya and I started taking Relief Factor several months ago.

After about 10 days, subtle changes started to become significant.

And I've been able to stop taking all prescription pain medications, all pain medications entirely, and stop the terrible side effects of those awful drugs.

Many on my team here at the Blaze are faithful takers of the 100% drug-free relief factor, and we have had great success in taking our lives back.

Try it.

Get a three-week quick start package for only $19.95.

Take it as directed.

That's less than a dollar per day.

And if it works on you like it has with me, you're going to get your life back.

I just had a little bit of a rant

talking about the Reverend Jesse Jackson talking saying that the President Trump is immoral and now backing the play of Christianity today.

And they talk about how he's immoral.

But see, they talk about things that President Trump did 10 years ago, allegedly.

And they want to talk about how

the evangelicals were against President Clinton.

Yeah, see, he did that stuff in the White House.

Remember that?

The intern.

Sorry.

He perjured himself before a grand jury.

President Trump didn't do those things, so here you have the media trying to flip the script, and then they're using a true charlatan,

sorry, Al Sharpton,

as the foil.

It just doesn't work, especially for those who also have been around and we didn't ask questions.

Why Al Sharpton?

Why does Al Sharpton even have a TV show?

Telephone number is 888-727-BECK.

We have Don in Missouri.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

How you doing, sir?

It's an honor to speak with you.

Thank you.

I wish I could hear you on national news.

I've never heard you before, but let me get to the point that I was getting to.

When Trump was running in 2016, everybody knows that he started the fake news saying that they were fake news.

And I agreed with him, him, of course, that

I remember prior to that, other talk show hosts for

about two years prior to Trump

running the race, they were also saying that the media was fake news.

But I believe it started way back about 20 years ago when Bush and Gore were running for president.

I remember hearing a debate between the two, and I remember Wolf Buttzer was one of the news people that analyzed what you just heard them say.

And what they just said, and what he said they just said, was just the opposite of what I heard.

So,

I believe fake news started way back at least

in 2000.

You're right.

Do you remember, Don, during the Mitt Romney Obama debate, and I think it was Candy Crawley.

Candy Crawley was a moderate.

And Mitt Romney called Obama something on it.

It's sort of like you could tell that they laid a trap because

Obama said, nope, that's not right.

That's not right.

And then Candy Crawley interjected herself into the debate, corrected Mitt Romney on his supposed mistake.

It was a mistake.

And then you heard Obama say, check the transcript.

Check the transcript.

And you had to sit back there as a viewer, like, wait a minute.

How does Obama know about a transcript?

How does he, why is he telling uh candy crawley to check it

yeah that kind of stuff was going on back in 2000 as well and probably before that it just got all exposed in the last election cycle i tell you something else that's exposed and we touched about talked so touched on this yesterday and that is this whole rise of racism We've only got

a little over an hour to be with you on the Glenn Beck program.

If I were to tell you that black men who voted for Obama are not good people and that you should be afraid of them.

What would you say about me?

You would say that I was racist, or in my case, that I was self-loathing, that I hated my own people.

Such is the convoluted nature of identity politics.

Identity politics is,

I think, ripping the country apart because it is primarily ripping the Democrat Party apart.

Identity politics is hypocrisy at its worst.

And we're going to talk about that up next.

My name is James T.

Harris.

I'm a radio talker out of Phoenix, Arizona.

The name of my show is the Conservative Circus.

I am the ringmaster, and the big top is News Talk 550, KFYI.

We're talking about identity politics here.

No, if I would have told you that, of course, all hell would have broken loose, but I didn't say that.

Actually, it was Michael Moore.

And what Michael Moore said is, white men who voted for Trump are not good people.

You should be afraid of them.

He said this in an interview with Rolling Stone.

I refuse to participate in post-racial America.

I refuse to say because we elected Obama that suddenly that means everything's okay.

White people have changed.

White people have not changed.

Two-thirds of all white guys voted for Trump.

That means anytime you see three white guys walking at you down the street toward you, two of them voted for Trump.

You need to move over to the other sidewalk because these are not good people that are walking towards you.

You should be afraid of them.

And then the third one probably says, I'm thinking about voting for Trump.

Yeah,

the third one is you and me.

We're traitors to our race.

That's how they see us, too, by the way.

Oh?

See, oh,

the very thing that they accuse us of is what they do.

Can you imagine?

You know, if you see four black people together, all of them voted for Obama.

So you should be afraid.

You should be afraid and you should avoid them.

My goodness.

You know, if Michael Moore would say that, he would be racist, but for some reason, he's allowed to say that about his own ethnicity.

Why is that?

Because he's woke.

He's woke and because he's woke he can now point to other white folks Americans of European descent, especially if they're male and they voted for Trump.

But he could say

that they're racist and they should be avoided.

Wow.

Telephone number is 888-727-B E CK.

We got Carl out in Alabama.

Carl, welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Hey, Glenn, I'm sorry, you're not Glenn.

You're James.

I have been waiting for this moment for a long time, and a bonus for me is to wish my cousin Merry Christmas, Happy New Year.

I'm so proud of you.

I got a lot of things to talk about.

I don't think I'm going to be able to get them all in.

But just know that I agree with most of what you're saying, and you actually have added to my category of vocabulary when you say

Americans of European descent.

I don't like putting labels on things, black, white, green, yellow, pink, purple, or orange, because they all carry negative connotations.

However, I think that's a good one.

I mean,

if we can be of African descent, then they can be of

European descent.

Yeah, Cousin Kerry, where I'm coming from is

we're Americans first.

We are Americans first.

And then if you want to make some distinctions, you can tell me where your people are from.

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

And I fully agree with that.

and that's my that's my site i i really don't care about the rest of it i'm an american born bred american 100 the constitution is my document and it gives me my rights and and everything and no man can take it away from me no i can't take it away from me but they are trying

they are you know and i also was thinking that you know uh i agree uh i have a love-hate relationship with glenn i started out loving him because he used a chalkboard to break down things and made it simple it's like like, yeah,

he thinks like I think.

You know, my first, my first, well, I guess I won't mention that, but you know, the second thing is that I started to dislike him a little bit when he came against Trump in the beginning.

His explanations were good, and it made me struggle because I trusted Glenn.

So I'm saying if he's against this guy, I better do my homework.

That only made me better for Trump.

And then he came back with his same way that he tries to seek the truth and he tries to to do what's right and he now is a trump supporter so i i trust glenn for doing the right thing doing the homework and and and and making it simple so i appreciate that and uh uh you know i just want he he he's he's done it again because he got my cous on the on the line and i really appreciate i really appreciate that and i i really did not realize after all of these years that you had done that and I have been trying to

I've done radio and TV and I've been trying to figure out a way to get to our people.

And I only say that because we're practically singing to the choir.

I mean, you know, what we talk about, the truths that we talk about, needs to get to our people because I don't think they're woke at all.

I don't think Al Sharpton is woke.

And you'll notice I didn't say that R-E-V word because he is not irreverent to me.

I know what the word means.

And I have no reverence for him.

I don't think that Jesse Jackson is woke.

I don't think that many of our quote-unquote self-appointed leaders in our community anymore.

I think some of the better ones died with Pops, with your father.

I'll tell you what, Carol,

what you're saying here is really, really interesting because

you talked about Glenn Beck going through his changes, and you were watching that.

You were talking about the chalkboard.

You were watching that.

And you were able to follow along.

You were able to, it taught you to think for yourself.

In this sense, I'd say that, you you know, TV is a good thing.

But then the other thing that you mentioned here is, you know, how you don't trust Al Sharpton, you don't trust the Jesse Jacksons.

And I think that you're right not to.

And you say, how do we get to our people?

I would like to put out there that President Trump has cut through all of that and he's doing just that.

He is cutting, he is cutting through the media noise and he is reaching to the people and they're they're hearing them and this is why we're seeing the

approval rate among Americans of African descent grow we're seeing the approval rate from Americans of Mexican descent grow as a matter of fact here's something that a lot of people especially on the left they just don't want to hear here is a Hispanic Trump voter who happens to be on the television set, and they're asking him, reporters are asking him, Why do you support Trump?

I look at President Trump as the one who most closely represents my values.

People will hear that and say, Values, you know, what values does the president have?

So, when you say that, what do you mean?

I mean supporting things that I support, like being against abortion,

being for limited government involvement, being for border security.

Whoa, wait a minute, what?

Being against abortion, Being for border security?

Immigration?

But, sir,

you're Hispanic.

You're not supposed to support Trump.

How did this guy ever end up in the Trump camp?

One of the things that is happening in our country today

is

because the media has so discredited itself

because the media and the Democrat Party has lied to Americans for so long,

people are starting to open their eyes.

When President Trump called out Elijah Cummings for his rat-infested district, oh, right, racist, that's racist.

But then you had a few people go into those districts and talk to the people there, and they're like, President Trump is right.

I've been here all my life, it's never got better, it's getting worse.

As a matter of fact, look at that.

Then they show you a house that's got a tree growing up through it, the dilapidated house.

They're criticizing the president for saying that Baltimore is rat-infested.

And then, in the background, white reporters are saying that they got rats running around.

You can't make this stuff up.

This is what makes this president so extraordinary, this message so timely.

He just calls it as he sees it, and then the media tries to spank him over it.

And

they're the ones that are proven wrong.

And the president's proven right.

President Trump is not a Republican or a Democrat.

You know, he put on that R and thank God for it.

But I think that he's running the country.

His policies are more conservative than we ever could have imagined.

But the one thing the president is doing.

That is amazing is he's cutting through the noise and his message, his policies are attracting Americans, whether you're American of

African descent, European descent, whatever descent.

It's the ideas that are capturing the imagination.

My name is James C.

Sitting in for Glenn Beck, this is the Glenn Beck program.

You know, there's a saying in business, if you don't know your numbers, you don't know your business.

And now the rapid pace of business, it's hard to keep up with those numbers.

Can you afford to expand?

Can you make that new hire?

Can you launch a new ad campaign?

How's revenue pacing compared to last year?

Now, most companies don't have a clear picture of their finances, so they make business decisions without that critical information based on their gut or worse, their fear.

Sit again for Glenn Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Telephone number, if you want to weigh in,

888-727-BECK.

You know, it is amazing.

I'm going to go back to Michael Moore here for a second.

Because with this interview with the Rolling Stone magazine,

he was talking about how he refuses to participate in post-racial America.

He said, I refuse to say because we elected Obama that suddenly that means everything is okay.

White people have changed.

White people haven't changed.

He said, two-thirds of all white guys voted for Trump.

That means anytime you see three white guys walking at you down the street towards you,

two of them voted for Trump.

You need to move to the other side because these are not good people.

They are walking toward you.

You should be afraid of

them.

And to me, this is extraordinary.

This is an extraordinary admission.

This is extraordinary that this guy can get the press coverage that he's getting.

This guy is is racist.

That is a racist notion.

And all you need to do is to change the ethnicity and understand that this is way out of bounds.

If, well, I can give you different scenarios.

If a black guy said this, if a white guy said this, but see,

where Michael Moore is able to get away with it, because he's an American of European descent and he's talking about other Americans of European descent.

And because you know, he's a left-winger,

and you can discriminate when you're a left-winger.

But see, white folks, white folks can't be the oppressors,

or should say, I'm sorry, white folks are always the oppressors,

so they can never be victims, right?

They are the aggressors

at all times.

And

as a result, we have to put up with clearly racist comments

like Michael Moore.

It's laughable,

but it's also very, very dangerous.

I think Michael Moore's rhetoric is very, very dangerous.

I remember one of my heroes back in the day, and this is controversial, I used to love listening to Malcolm X, the recordings of Malcolm X.

I used to love to listen to him take on the establishment.

I enjoyed him more when he evolved out of the nation of Islam and became, you know, went on the true pursuit of Islam.

That's when his eyes really opened.

Then he came back, and it's even reported that he started having conversations with Dr.

Martin Luther King Jr.

And it was around that time he got shot.

But he spoke bluntly.

But even

in his

negative commentary towards the European culture, he still evolved to talk about the brotherhood of man.

And look how far we've come from Dr.

Martin Luther King Jr.'s I Have a Dream speech,

where he wanted his children to be judged on the content of their character, not on the color of their skin.

Now we have the Democrats who are judging people not on the content of their character, but on the color of their hat.

Make America great again.

That hat, that sentiment can get you beat up.

Most of the political attacks that we are seeing

are not from conservatives or Trump supporters attacking liberals and socialists.

No, it's vice versa.

And if that Trump supporter happens to be white, well, you know what?

They just got what they deserved.

Whether it be a 16-year-old kid or a 50-year-old man, that's where the left has brought us, and it is

dangerous.

One of the things that I've been harping on is how this is learned behavior.

And now we have Michael Moore on television, teaching other people, like-minded people, to be this way, to feel this way.

We heard from a caller yesterday who said that in New York in a classroom right after the 2016 elections, the thing among the woke to do was to wear a safety pin.

and that safety pin was supposed to signal to americans of african descent that these were safe white folks

they're woke they didn't vote for for trump and it's laughable but it's also dangerous he also talked about how the americans of african descent didn't like that they felt belittled

that's what this That's what this ideology, that's what this political movement does.

There are so many things for us to celebrate as we're moving into 2020.

There are so many things that our country is doing that I think is

unique and special.

One of them

is President Trump and the unveiling of Space Force.

Now, I have to be honest with you.

When I first heard about Space Force, I ridiculed it.

I laughed.

Space Force?

I think about that movie, the cartoon Space Ghost.

Or what was the one,

the little, the puppets?

You had Team America.

That kind of stuff.

I don't know.

You know, where did that come from?

But after I got done giggling, I started to ask myself a serious question.

How come the United States government is not publicly involved in space?

The last time we heard from NASA, I believe

the Obama administration was putting NASA,

took them out of space and put them over something like Arab cultural development.

It's been over 50 years since we've been to the moon.

And all the space shuttle did really was like, you know, go up and then kind of ride around in orbit, a big cargo ship, doing scientific experiments, you know, just kind of, you know, I just, you know.

So

what can Space Force mean for our future?

And is this something we should be excited about?

We're going to look to the stars

coming up next.

And I really do believe that President Trump is on to something.

We'll talk about it.

My name is James C.

Harris.

Sitting again for Glenn Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

All right, I want to tell you what I'm getting my wife for Christmas because she sent me an email.

And if you don't believe what I say is true when I tell you about the commercials, ask my wife about all of the stuff that we use that you hear me talk about.

And with X-Chair, I have an X-Chair.

I have one in the studio.

I have one in my office.

And my wife sent me an email that said, I want an X-Chair for Christmas.

And so, what happened?

I'm laying my head down on my pillow at night.

And she says, you know, they're $100 off.

I'm like, I know, honey, I read the commercials every day.

So, don't believe me, my wife does.

The best chair I've ever sat in, and she sits in my office chair as well.

She knows.

Right now, you'll save $100 off the model of your choice.

That's xchairbeck.com or call 1-844-4xchair.

xchairbeck.com.

My name is James T.

Harris.

Sit again for Glenn Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

It's called Space Force.

Space Force.

There's going to be a lot of things happening in space because space is the world's newest warfighting domain.

Amid grave threats to our national security, American superiority in space is absolutely vital.

And we're leading, but we're not leading by enough, but very shortly we'll be leading by a lot.

The Space Force will help us deter aggression and control the ultimate high ground.

With today's signing, I will proudly appoint General Jay Raymond, the first Chief of Space Operations, and he will become the very first member of the Space Force, and he will be on the Joint Chiefs.

He will be on the Joint Chiefs, which are now expanding by one position.

That's a very powerful position.

So, General Raymond, congratulations, and thank you for everything you've done.

Space Force

is a go.

President Donald Trump, he's created a new military service, as he said, to fight in space, and he signed a three, a $738 billion

defense spending bill.

This is kind of amazing.

We're talking about 16,000 active duty airmen and civilians who served in the Space Command are now part of the newly minted space

force

and our goal here is to return to space but you said this is not like Star Trek

we're not boldly going where no man has gone before to try to you know

discover new cultures new civilizations

This is more like Star Wars

Which, you know, when it comes to the two science fiction

genres here,

Star Trek is more realistic than Star Wars Star Wars is sort of like you know make-believe

Star Trek is real

have you seen the native Star Wars

they got a new weapon I'm not gonna say anything beyond that because I know a lot of folks have not seen the of the last episode of the Star Wars well how many trilogies were there three

But it's interesting because at first the president, you know, people made fun of him.

and I understand that, but then we have to ask the question, how come we're not doing anything in space?

The Chinese, they're doing stuff in space.

The Japanese, they're doing stuff in space.

But now all of a sudden, we're back in, and it's a new military branch to boot.

And the president, he's been pushing for this.

He's been taking criticisms for this effort.

Even from folks on his side of the aisle,

they've got all kinds of memes popping up with President Trump as Buzz Light Gear.

But you know what?

Something tells me that someday

we're going to be thanking the President for this bold move.

A lot of technology we have today is a direct result of the nation's investment in the space

program.

And we have the technology.

Why do we what?

What has kept us from going back to space?

There are some folks out there who think, you know what, we are not out of it.

We haven't been out of it.

We just haven't been talking about it.

I don't want to go down the conspiracy theory lane today here on the Glenbatt program.

But

when you imagine all of the satellites that are in orbit now,

have we ever stopped to think about how populated our orbit is?

Not just with satellites, but even with space junk.

We've got stuff falling from the sky all the time.

Most of the time, it falls over the water.

But lately, it's been falling on land.

One person was out hiking when space junk almost hit him.

There is a lot of science science that is done in space, but it is time for America to have our own vessels with our own astronauts without international oversight.

I happen to think

that all of this Star Trek-style

United Forces stuff is garbage, especially when you've got China out there cheating.

We can't have free trade with China as long as they cheat.

And that's part of the reason why we're having these negotiations on trade.

My question is: if we don't trust them when it comes to trade, why do we trust them when it comes to

space?

Thanks to today's technology, most of the scientific work or most of the work period can be done remotely.

from right here on earth

I don't think the president envisions you know a bunch of a rocket ship cowboys zipping around the planet.

But we do have space junk.

We do have

satellite technology.

We do have spying going on.

And I think that our country should be a part of that, every part of that.

Like the president just said, I think that our country should lead in that.

even though it's kind of frightening

because I certainly don't trust the FBI and I certainly don't trust the FISA courts.

But you know what?

It would be kind of nice if our team had a bird's eye view on everything that's going on on the planet

with technology

placed solidly here on earth in the United States of America.

We have private companies that are making huge breakthroughs.

We got SpaceX.

We have, you know, what countries used to only do, you have, you have, I'm sorry, countries, yeah, and companies are now being able to do it.

And that's that's good.

But private corporations will never have the financial backing

that a country like America could give this program.

So I think from the technological advances alone,

we should be there.

And I think that the fact that we have countries that are not very friendly to us that are up there doing things,

we need to be there.

Yeah.

I think also that we could come up with something better to Space Force, though.

But I don't know.

I don't know.

It's just the name.

I don't know what to think, except for the fact that when the giggling stops and we look around the world, we see that other countries are very, very active in these space programs.

And it bothers me that we have not been.

And I'm wondering why that is.

The timing of all of this is very, very strange.

Because the president, I think he knows something.

And I have learned to trust his judgment when it comes to the safety and security of this country.

And so,

I say, let's go.

I say the Space Force is going to I think is going to have a profound impact on the way we see things.

Wait, what?

Oh, okay, I got this.

Someone's saying, what about asteroids?

Most of them are discovered by amateurs and lone astronomers.

What about the United States becoming a defense force on that?

Well, that's kind of kind of, is that,

yeah.

We have evidence on the planet that asteroids have hit.

Do we now have the technology to be able to divert

one of those

that may strike the planet?

Can you tell that I'm kind of out there on this?

I'm just kind of out there on this.

I don't know.

All I do know is this.

If we have other countries that are investing their technology into this, or

I think we are too.

I think something else is going on that's deeper.

I know there's a lot of conspiracy theories out there about what that could be.

But for right now, we are living in an unprecedented time.

And in the same way, when President Trump started running and he started to say, Make America great again, and we were proud of America, but a lot of Americans wouldn't say that.

America, a lot of Americans didn't feel that.

A lot of us felt uncomfortable because we had been bullied into thinking, you know what, we have so much power.

We're a world power.

We need to share this.

This is illegitimate.

Illegitimate gains.

We used to believe that consciously as a country.

It took President Trump

reintroducing the idea that America is great.

We once were very proud of our space program,

and we've had other administrations dismantle it.

We've had some administrations talk about it coming back,

but just like we had other administrations who promised to move the embassy, you know, to Jerusalem and Israel, but didn't, this president did.

And this president proudly is unveiling this program,

and it is his objective

to make

America a better and safer place.

So

I'll keep my eye on this, but I think the president once again has kept his promises.

My name is James T.

Harris,

filling in for Glenn Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

It's time to get back into gold because there's a reset coming.

And maybe you should do your own homework and consider gold or silver.

1-866 Goldline is the number I would call.

You might want to spit yourself out of the system.

And the way to do that is to have something in hard gold or silver.

Now, you might think you're not able to afford gold.

That's not true.

I asked them specifically, and I think they're the only ones that do this specifically to do an accumulation special.

Now, this is not you getting in debt.

This is you doing, it's like a layaway, a hundred dollars a month, and you send a hundred dollars a month, and they just keep building your gold portfolio.

Nobody else does that.

Accumulation special gets started for as low as a hundred dollars a month.

Please find out if gold or silver is right for you.

Please batten down the hatches.

1-866-Gold Line, 1-866-Gold Line.

Get started for as little as $100 a month.

1-866 Goldline or Goldline.com

You are listening to the Glenn Beck program.

My name is James T.

Harris.

Sitting in.

This is the last sitting.

I want to just want to say to everyone out there, it has been an absolute pleasure of sitting in on this platform.

And I appreciate all of the emails.

You know, that took some effort.

People had to find out who I am and find the email and send that off.

And a lot of folks did.

I appreciate the text messages and the Facebook posts that have been left.

And I tried to respond to them all.

It's an amazing time that we live in.

And I think

the more we tune out the television, the more we tune out the propaganda, the more that we tune out what

the propagandists want us to think about this country,

want us to think about this president, I think the better off we are going to be.

I think coming up in 2020, you know, it's going to be a dangerous path though,

because we have seen

how the Democrats We have seen how those in the media are completely devoted to, bought in with resistance.

The resistance movement is strong and it threatens to tear the nation apart.

Yesterday, I introduced the idea that we are not having or experiencing a coup as much as we are experiencing a cold civil war.

I don't want it to become hot.

We're keeping our eye on some states that are making bold moves.

Once the left gets in and they have the governorship and they have the legislature, now they're making bold moves

to

advance their agenda.

And out in Virginia, they're talking about confiscating guns.

And you got some gun owners saying, This is, hey, this is my this constitutional right to own these guns.

They're saying, we're going to send in the National Guard.

Then you have some Virginians say, okay, well, we're going to

form a militia.

Oh, time out.

Time out.

Let us go back and visit the Constitution.

Those founding fathers, I think they were brilliant in their wisdom and in their insight.

I think right now we have a lot of Democrats who are

flirting with that.

And actually, they're having a one-night stand with the founding fathers.

Oh, the founding fathers are great when we talk about about impeachment.

And

we respect the founding fathers.

But then, when it comes to the Electoral College,

we don't like the founders then.

We're in a very, very strange time, but we've been in situations that have been worse than this as a country.

What I would encourage everybody to do is

do not take for granted the gifts that we have.

Do not look around and take for granted this incredible economy.

Do not take for granted that we are having

constitutionalists put on the court.

Do not take for granted that we have an administration that is making it easier for people to get into business.

And

do not take for granted that our country is blessed

because of that Constitution and because the founding fathers knew that only immoral people could enjoy this type of liberty.

So we need to pray for our president.

We need to pray for the Democrats and the Republicans.

We need to pray for local leaders.

We need to pray for each other.

That we don't lose these liberties on our watch.

Thank you so much for joining me, friends, for the last couple of days.
