Best of the Program | Guest: Chad Prather | 11/26/19

Welcome to the podcast.

It is Pat and Stu in for Glenn today.

We talked to Chad Prather.

He's of course Blaze TV host and he has a three-part special going on right now.

Blazetv.com.

You can use the code CPS if you'd like to subscribe to this.

And you get a little savings.

But he goes deep into the Jeffrey Epstein thing.

He's got a three-part special going on this week.

So it's really an Epstein week.

The holidays, when you think of the holidays, think Jeffrey Epstein here with the Blaze.

We go into that and the new poll that shows an incredible increase in the amount of people who believe Jeffrey Epstein did not kill himself.

I don't know if it's because of the t-shirts or because everyone's saying it, the hashtag, but people are definitely starting to believe that.

And nothing says happy Thanksgiving better than three broken bones in your neck.

Does it?

No, definitely not.

Nothing.

We also go into an interesting discovery from Stacey Abros, who is the real, true governor of Georgia.

She obviously won by losing by 50,000 votes.

And yet, had it stolen from her.

She had it stolen from her, of course.

What a novelist.

Well, it's true.

What a novelist.

She's a writer.

I did not realize this.

She writes sex novels.

And we have some excerpts from these novels.

You are not going to want to miss that.

That and so much more on today's podcast.

You're listening to

the best of the Blandbeck Program.

We used to live in a country with wide diversity of opinions, yet we still had a basic set of shared values.

We might not have had the same religion, but we could agree that life was precious.

We might not have belonged to the same political party, but we could agree government should be kept small.

Yeah, those days are well behind us.

But that's why companies like Patriot Mobile are so important.

Patriot Mobile is America's only conservative cell phone company.

It's run by Patriots.

These are guys who are veterans

in our armed forces who believe in the good heart of this country the way that you do.

That's why I and thousands of others have made the switch.

to Patriot Mobile.

They're offering a special just for joining.

You can upgrade your phone to a brand new Moto Z3 Play for only $5 a month.

That includes a six-inch screen, expandable storage, high-quality camera, and so much more.

Switching is really, really easy.

You're going to save a buttload of money every single month.

You're going to get the same great sell service.

Not your money's not going to be going to Planned Parenthood or La Raza.

PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.

PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.

You get the brand new Moto Z3 play today.

Supplies are limited.

Patriotmobile.com slash Beck.

You got an Epstein update here?

Yeah, because look.

There is a lot of divisiveness in this country today, and a lot of people are going to come around the Thanksgiving table and maybe get into some arguments.

But there's one thing that we can all come together on, which is that Jeffrey Epstein didn't kill himself.

Exactly.

I think we all could recognize that one central truth.

And I mean, I joke a little, but I mean, it is now,

it's coming, it's showing up in polls now.

I bet.

This is going to be a thing.

Like, this is going to be a thing that we all believe soon, right?

And we went back and forth a little bit about this earlier.

And I don't,

there's not really like evidence per se that he did.

It's a lot of circumstantial.

It's just so suspicious.

It is.

Yeah.

So suspicious.

You can't deny it's suspicious.

You have to, right?

Like, listen to the way this is written.

I think, I don't remember who I don't have the source here in front of me.

But 45% of Americans baselessly believe that Jeffrey Epstein was murdered according to.

Baselessly?

Wait a minute.

Baselessly.

I mean, look, I don't like conspiracy theories at all.

I like seeing the evidence.

And even with this one, like,

there are a lot of people that are acting in ways that don't make sense if you're trying to cover up a murder.

There's a lot of people who are totally unrelated to this saying things that are not consistent

or don't make a lot of sense.

Why would they be involved in a cover-up?

Like, it doesn't, it's a very far-ranging thing.

And I keep coming back to the idea that if you wanted wanted to kill Jeffrey Epstein, you had 10 years of this guy just walking around Miami, right?

Like,

you know, he was very available to kill, and he was he had a private island.

You could have just showed up when he was there, right?

Like, there's a lot of ways to kill Jeffrey Epstein that are much easier than waiting until he is in a cell.

Well, Bill was on the plane with him 26 times.

He could have killed him right there.

But this is a Survey Monkey

poll.

And

I think the idea of baselessly here is just you're pushing it with that, right?

Like the cameras are out.

Two guards fall asleep.

The guy was on

Suicide Watch and then pulled off of it so he could commit suicide.

His cellmate was taken out of the cell just hours before this happened.

The guards never check him, despite the fact that they were supposed to do that every 15 minutes.

I mean, there's so many things.

They didn't have the paper sheets they're supposed to to have that tear away instead of, you know, strangle somebody.

So, I mean, how many things came together to allow him to commit suicide?

It is suspicious.

It is suspicious.

You can't deny it's at least suspicious.

Right.

I mean, there's not a lot of conspiracy theories that I buy into,

but we all have our like little pets theory, right?

Like, I feel like there's some, and this is what I think is going to be a big one for a lot of people.

I mean, we're up to half of America already that believe it, which is fast.

They need to do a really thorough report and convince the American people if this was not something more than suicide.

You really need to walk people through it, I think, because it just

doesn't seem possible.

34%

believe this in August.

So it's gone from 34 to 45

in only a couple of months.

Only 16% believe he died by suicide.

That's down

from 33%.

So it's been cut in half.

Wow.

And the remainder is they're not sure.

So 45,

16.

39% unsure.

Wow.

According to the poll.

Dang,

that's a high percentage of unsure, too.

Yeah.

Well, look, none of us were there.

Yeah.

None of us have read the report beginning to end.

I mean, obviously some media people have done it, but generally speaking, no one.

It's just.

It's one of those things that just doesn't make sense.

I don't, like, my chosen conspiracy theory, my little pet one, which I turned out to be seemingly true, at least in a book that came out last year, was the whole John Roberts Obamacare.

He changed his mind at the last second and rewrote it.

And

he was supposed to be on the side of the conservative argument and last minute switched.

It does seem like that one was actually true.

Now, there's, you know, the extension of that theory is that he did it for some illicit reason, like he was hiding some secret.

I tend to think it was more of a situation.

Where there was something about his daughter, right?

I don't remember if that was it.

Yeah, it was something where they were basically saying, like, you know, he got blackmailed into changing it.

I don't know if I believe that part of it, but I did believe that he

changed it at the last second for some reason.

And the reporting now is that he changed it kind of like

maintain the

maintain his legacy.

His legacy.

Like, I mean, it was

lame.

And something that a Supreme Court justice should never do.

I mean, exactly.

Talking about impeachment.

There's a much better case for Roberts than there is for Trump, in my mind, because that's the type of stuff you shouldn't be doing.

I mean, he basically voted against what he believed was constitutional to trade out

a favor later on.

Like, he tried to convince liberals to vote with him, so he changed his opinion.

So they'd come along and it didn't look too partisan.

Ooh.

No, they never care about that.

When's the last time a leftist cared about

what looked partisan?

They never do.

They never do.

So,

you know, that one, I don't know, you know, if that's even a conspiracy theory anymore, but this one is,

it's just one of those things that I think almost everybody believes is way too suspicious.

Even if you are completely fine, okay, yeah, he killed himself.

Because look, there's a lot of reasons for the guy to kill himself.

Here's a guy who lived his entire life, you know,

following, you know, receiving every little pleasure he wanted from every little illegal person or illegal act that he could have maintained it from.

And now he's in a jail cell.

He can't do anything.

His life is obviously over.

He's not getting out of that cell.

It's over.

He's disgraced.

He's disgraced completely, which is bizarre because really he did the things.

that he was caught for, you know, he's being disgraced for long ago.

And he went through the whole

situation then, came through on the other side of prison, which wasn't really prison.

He was in his own private wing of

jail by himself.

And then he was able to leave for 12 hours a day, six days a week, to go to work.

So that's not really prison.

That's not.

That's really not.

That's not prison.

No, it's not.

But he was able to continue this lifestyle.

And we don't know how many women

he was with.

But we do know that when he had, this is after,

and women is not the right word.

I should note, women, not the right word in this particular context.

But he was, you know, he was sleeping with all these girls.

He got caught, went to jail, then got out, finally cleared himself of all these huge punishments.

Because, I mean, you know, when you wind up luring 30, 40, 50 high school girls

for sex to your home, I mean, you figure private wing leaving all the time, you know, in

a year or so is about right for punishment.

Unbelievable, right?

But he continues to, like, for example, he continues, has reporters over for interviews to his house in New York.

And who answers the door?

Like, a teenage girl.

19-year-old girls from like the Eastern Block.

Yeah.

This is not a good.

Amazing story.

It's amazing.

I mean, he was a bad dude.

Hey, it's Glenn, and you're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

It's available wherever you download your favorite podcasts.

Apparently, Bernie's released some details about his tax proposal.

Yeah.

We talked about Elizabeth Warren yesterday and her 500, no, 158%.

It was all it was.

It's not 500%.

Just 158% of everything you make.

And to be clear, 500% is a little too high.

That's excessive.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's more than your fair share.

158%, though.

That's reasonable.

I think it's too low, personally, because these bastard billionaires shouldn't even exist.

Right.

How about the time that they were like, they had Tom Steyer on the stage and

they tried to goad an argument out of the candidates.

And they're like, you know, Elizabeth Warren says that billionaires should not even exist.

And Bernie Sanders says billionaires should not even exist.

Tom Steyer, how do you feel about that?

I too believe that billionaires shouldn't exist.

It's like, oh, shut up, you wuss.

I mean, that's just like, that's just pathetic.

But Bernie is a guy who's going to fund these plans, and he's honest about it.

But we know that Bernie is going to make sure that the rich are paying for this because how much money do you need?

You know what I mean?

And, you know, we say the rich, and sometimes that's a little difficult to define because there's not a number you put on that.

But Bernie was willing to actually put a number on it yesterday.

And he told you about the tax that's going to hit you

if you happen to be rich.

Probably not you, because

the number is so high that how many Americans are going to be included in this tax?

Oh, I mean, it's top 1% of the top 1% of the top 1% of the top 1%.

When you hear the figure, you're going to laugh because you're going to realize

I could work my whole life and never earn that much money.

Right?

Well, here's Bernie explaining his plan.

Okay.

What we will do, what we will do, is have a 4% tax on income, excepting the first $29,000.

All right.

Wait, what?

You're better at arithmetic than I am.

Because what that means is if you have that average family in the middle

who makes $60,000 a year, that means we're going to tax you on $31,000 at 4%.

There you go.

So don't worry about it because

it's only the wealthiest.

Yep.

93% of Americans.

Right.

Exactly.

And you're probably, if you're listening to the show right now, what are the odds that you happen to be in the wealthiest?

93%.

I mean, it's.

I mean, if you make $29,000,

you could afford to shave a little money off.

You're not even going to miss that 4%.

You won't miss it.

And you probably, like, if you're sitting in your car right now and you're like, I don't even know what it would be like to earn $29,000 a year.

It's too much money.

I mean, you've got a Bugatti, you've got a Porsche, probably a Lamborghini, a Lamborghini, a couple yachts.

You live in a 50,000 square foot home.

Yeah, probably

40,000.

It depends what area.

If you're in Southern California, you could probably only afford 40,000 square feet.

But if maybe you're in the middle of the country, you get 50,000.

I mean, think about that.

That's $29,000.

Yeah, think about that.

If you could go to the bank, you could pull all that $29,000 out, you could lay it all out with individual ones, it would stack super high.

Maybe to the whole side.

I'll bet it'd be over an inch.

I'll bet it'd be over an inch high.

Maybe.

Stack of bills.

And, I mean, now when you're raking all this cash in,

if you are the type of person out there and you live this lifestyle, if you make over $29,000 a year, I would love to hear your story.

Because I used to love Robin Leach.

doing lifestyle.

Lifestyles are the rich and famous.

Yeah, you remember?

Yeah.

And they would just go in, they'd just be like, look at this whole house is marble.

And then they have a slide to get down to their car.

These people make a whopping $29,000 a year.

I remember he said that how many times.

Oh.

And you're like, oh my gosh, imagine if I could grow up and get to that level.

You know, you would just be like, I'm so rich.

I actually want more taxes because I am having an issue.

counting my money.

It just piles up so fast.

And the guilt factor that you've taken so much from society.

Well, at some point,

you made enough money.

It's true, and we've heard that many times.

Yes.

So, if you happen to be one of these spectacular people among us that earn over, over $29,000 a year, we'd love to hear your story of wealth.

But beyond that, I think the truth here is that Bernie is at least being honest.

Yeah, that's crazy.

Do you mention the balls?

$29,000,

you're adopted.

You make $29,000.

29 000 that's the cutoff point and that means that this tax will help literally everyone who is not in poverty

yeah that is like legitimately what happens here it's the poverty probably 29 000 is probably the most

close to it in some in some like in california in new york it's probably more than that yeah it varies because you know it also varies on how many kids you have and whether you're married and all these different things but it's right around uh it's right around uh uh here.

And then, like, that

I will say, I do give him credit for actually blurting that out.

Yeah, you know, $29,000 a year, this tax will hit you, and you'll be paying more and more and more and more and more and more to the federal government until basically they just have the whole thing.

And that's just his wealth tax, right?

That's just,

I think that was for the health care stuff.

So he's going to take, he's going to give you

four percent.

There's a four percent

tax

for health care, right?

So they just take that out of your check and it goes into the health care and then coffers.

And then what that does for you is, of course, you get to wait in line a really long time for your surgeries.

Yes.

Which is nice.

You get a place in line, though.

You're guaranteed a place in line.

Now, you might not ever get to the surgery.

You may die before the surgery.

Well, you might.

But you're in line.

Yeah.

And what else are they supposed to say?

Sometimes it only takes nine, 10 months to get the surgery, though, that you need.

That's it.

Yeah, that's it.

You can't wait nine or ten months.

This is what's happening in this country.

People are making $29,000 a year.

They're all spoiled.

And there are some services.

I was told

by my surgeon who did my neck surgery.

He probably makes me.

I don't think he makes $29,000,

but he probably makes a good $15,000.

I think $15,000 to $16,000-ish, you know.

But he said, he was saying, if, because I started with...

the injections, you know, to kind of calm it down and stuff.

It works for a few minutes, but then after a while, it goes goes away but anyway he was saying now if you lived in canada you couldn't even get it they don't even offer it they don't offer the injection you can't do it yeah so you've got to you've got to go directly to surgery immediately even though the injection would be a heck of a lot cheaper and easier to do and

but they don't they don't do it wow so you just suffer until you can get surgery and that's scheduled off you know six months in advance yeah look i mean that's nuts.

It's ridiculous.

And, you know, the $29,000 thing is an incredible line.

I mean, look, you work your ass off for, I've worked many years for less than $29,000.

You know,

doing good, solid work is a great thing, and there's nothing to be ashamed of for making $29,000 a year.

You certainly shouldn't be attacked for it, though.

No.

You know, you shouldn't be attacked for having,

for being so wealthy that you're making $29,000 a year.

That's ridiculous.

And the idea that this is the solution to our healthcare problems problems is a real issue.

There's a place in Oklahoma

that does,

they decided to just kind of change the way medicine is done.

And we talk about this free market healthcare thing all the time, but it never comes to fruition.

Well, they decided to just do it.

So it was a couple doctors.

The main guy is an anesthesiologist, and they started this surgery center.

And they

now post all of the prices for their surgery online.

You go to their website.

All All right, this one's $3,000.

That's how much it costs.

They don't take any insurance.

They don't deal with it at all.

You have to go in and you have to pay for it.

However, you know exactly what it costs.

And it's much cheaper than the other places around are

charging.

They don't jack up prices to try to get insurance money.

They don't do any of that.

They just, and they have highly qualified people who come in and do these things and they do them well.

Are they doing well?

And they're doing really well with it.

They're doing really well with it in fact i i uh i think it's been open for uh you know 15 or 18 years now wow and they have not raised their prices since they opened their prices are the same that's pretty amazing opened wow think about that and here's something that it's in the real world it's actually happening it's working Is it dominating the conversation even for conservatives?

No.

Why?

Instead, we're talking about, well, look, of course we have to keep all of these big programs that already exist, but let's not slightly expand them or really, really expand them.

That's the debate.

Oh, we're going to keep like Obamacare.

Like, remember there was a time, do you guys remember this?

When Republicans said getting rid of Obamacare was a priority?

When's the last time you heard anybody say that?

2016.

Now it's all, oh, well, of course we have to keep that.

But what we'd like to do is do this slight improvement here and there and try to change this or that what you know what happened

instead now these things it's everything we said about obamacare is coming true it first of all hasn't worked second of all and we know by the way it was more expensive it's more expensive and we know it doesn't work because every single democrat who is running for president against it They're all saying how bad it is that we have to improve it.

Now, they don't say it in those words, but they all have plans to double and triple the size of it or change it completely.

So we know they don't think it's working.

We also told you that was coming.

Yep.

That was the next step, in fact, is that a Trojan horse.

It's a Trojan horse.

Well, it's not really a Trojan horse, is it?

We're just saying it's right there.

It's right there.

We're telling you.

That's what the architect of the plan said.

Yes.

And nobody believed it.

And I guess.

Conspiracy theory.

Yeah.

And now we're to a point where

it has

changed from

an issue that was very unpopular for Democrats to one that is now part of what we have.

We can't take it away from the people who need it.

It's no longer a thing where Republicans are even saying it needs to go away.

What they're saying is, well, look, it's there and we can't get rid of it, but we can improve this 1% of it.

That's what happens with these entitlements.

It becomes, as soon as people start getting it, then it becomes part of society, part of our social contract, which I don't remember signing.

Right.

And it is something that dominates.

just like Medicare and Social Security.

Yeah.

Same thing.

I mean, there were at the time lots of conservatives who pointed out, hey, Social Security, that just sounds like a giant redistribution of wealth program.

Yeah, it's socialism.

And at its very best, it sounds like the government forcing you to save.

And I love the fact that Democrats now say, well, Republicans were saying

back then that it was socialism.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And they were because it was.

And it is.

And people might have gotten used to it now.

And so even some Republicans love it now.

Oh, it's very popular, these programs.

Yeah, well, of course they are.

You made it part of their life.

The average person gets more than two times the amount that they put in out of Social Security.

And Medicare is even worse.

I mean, Medicare is absolutely the main thing bankrupting this country right now.

And, you know, the fact that they don't even means test it, that Bill Gates can get Medicare if he wants, is completely ridiculous.

We all understand that there's a good motivation behind that program, but maybe if you didn't take our money, our entire lives and spent it on crap, we'd be able to pay for our own retirement.

We'd be able to pay for our own insurance after we retire.

You know, instead, we have these programs, and I think a completely underrated worst president of all time nominee is Lyndon Johnson.

Never gets, never gets the attention he deserves when you talk about the worst president in U.S.

history.

But he deserves that title.

He's definitely down there.

Yeah, he's definitely down there.

And he created all these programs that are creating all this debt.

And now we have Democrats creating even more programs that will double and triple down on these ideas that didn't work.

And Republicans barely bring it up anymore.

I mean,

you do not hear Republicans make arguments about debt and deficit anymore.

No, you don't.

It's just not a thing right now.

And it's embarrassing.

It's embarrassing.

Because if these things actually mattered to us, and I know we've made these arguments, I know people in the audience are making these arguments all the time,

but

if you didn't believe it then and you were making the arguments, then you're just playing the same crappy brand of politics that every politician plays.

If you care about the debt and the deficit, people in Washington right now deserve heat for it because they're not addressing it at all.

At all.

Maxine Waters is an interesting character.

We love her because she gives us incredible amounts of material.

I mean, she's basically a fountain of youth for talk radio material.

No matter what you have, you can always say, What did Maxine say yesterday?

It's always going to be something dumb.

You always have that there.

You can always find whatever it is, and you can do an entire show about it.

So, here is Maxine.

This is the most recent example.

She's talking about Ben Carson, and I believe it was MSNBC.

Listen.

Well, you know, know, I sent him a letter, and he sent me a letter, you know, claiming that I had no manners, et cetera.

I basically said to my staff, I really don't have time to be bothered with somebody who doesn't know the difference between REO and OEO.

I mean, you know, this guy just doesn't have the background, the capability, the intelligence to do the job.

He doesn't know what he's doing.

He doesn't care about this issue.

He rises to the occasion to basically support this president any opportunity that he gets.

And so I'm going to be so happy when they're all out of here.

They're hurting our country.

They're undermining our democracy.

And they're being very discouraged.

We don't have a democracy.

And I hope the American people can see that if we allow this president and his cabinet to get away with what they're doing, they will be destroying the presidency.

and that office forever.

Oh, my gosh.

Is she calling a black man stupid?

She does.

She is.

A black neurosurgeon.

Wow.

She's calling a neurosurgeon

stupid.

Huh.

That's a fascinating, fascinating claim.

Now, Ben Carson, you can say you don't like his policies.

You can say you don't like it.

You don't like his demeanor.

Maybe he's a little too sleepy for you.

Yeah, I can see that.

But not intelligent.

Not intelligent.

That does not compute, especially from someone like Maxine Waters.

How many dumb neurosurgeons do you know?

Oh, tons.

Tell you, man.

If I've seen one,

one of the fastest-growing segments of our population are dumb neurosurgeons.

People don't know that.

They're all over the place.

Just doing their neurosurgery in a dumb way.

That's what they do.

Every day they wake up and just go in there and they just do complicated neurosurgery.

Just messing around in your brain, and they're too stupid to know which parts of the brain to connect or remove.

Yeah.

I mean, base, if you've ever, if you ever watch The Simpsons, Ben Carson's basically Dr.

Nick.

He's the guy who comes out and he just, he just kind of fumbles his way through all the surgeries, and it's just, it's just loving and hilarious.

Oh, you've paralyzed me.

Ah,

that's Ben Carson.

Now, it's weird because I've seen he's won all these awards and all these incredible things that no one had ever done before in the field.

But he's basically just a moron.

And I guess he just lucked his way into fixing all those people.

What a great story.

And separating Siamese twins at the brain.

How hard is that, though?

We need scissors.

What's the big deal?

I mean, you put scissors in between them and you kind of, I don't know.

I mean, how hard could it be?

It's a moron.

Any moron could do that.

You go to Home Depot, you get some hedge clippers.

Right.

And you just

snip, snip, snip.

And then they're separated.

And you say, nurse, sew them back up.

Yeah.

Because I bet he's not even doing the sewing.

I bet he's not.

I bet he's not.

You got a little sewing machine.

You put their heads under there.

You press the pedal.

I don't know how it works exactly with something like that.

Any moron could do it.

It's not that big of a deal.

Right.

So she makes a really good point there, obviously.

She's made a lot of really good points over the years, though.

As far as I'm concerned, the Tea Party can go straight to hell.

They say to me all the time, you appear to be angry.

If you black and American, you're not a little bit mad, you crazy.

Stop sending those dove whistles to white supremacist today we declare we're not taking it anymore this liberal will be all about socializing uh oh uh oh oh no oh no

it will be about

something else something else something else um what is the word what is the word what is it basically basically taking over taking over

and the government running all of your companies keep your nasty comments away from us we're rallying and we're protesting yeah you don't intimidate us.

You don't scare us.

We're going to fight against you and your policies.

We're going to struggle.

We're going to do everything necessary to show you you cannot take this country down the path that you think you're going to take it down.

Don't ever let me see

again in life

those Republicans in our hall

on our screens talking about anything.

That's a restriction.

These are demons.

They're demons.

Demons.

Okay.

Literally demonizing them.

These are legislators who are destroying this country.

Man.

So she's.

She knows.

Are they demons or are they legislators trying to destroy the country?

I feel like those are two moderately different things.

She is one of these people that just...

opens the mouth and about two minutes after she's done speaking tries to figure out what she's saying.

There's no, there's no plan going in.

You know, it's like it's, you know, it's like Ben Carson with his neurosurgery.

He doesn't know what he's doing when he goes in there.

He just starts cutting, as we mentioned.

Start cutting things and connecting tubes and see what happens.

You know, does a person walk afterwards?

I don't know.

Maybe, maybe not.

We'll see.

That's Ben Carson.

The guy just, you know, he just is just a haphazard guy when it comes to his neurosurgery.

I mean, it's unbelievable.

It is.

And one really interesting clip that you played there was Maxine Waters, and she does this all the time, saying essentially,

well, they always call black people angry,

and that's, of course, we should be angry.

But there's that sort of undercurrent there of if you call, if you criticize a black person,

then you don't like black people.

You see, oh, they're all angry.

Only black people are angry.

And this is very standard left-wing procedure.

It's the same thing they do with with Soros right it's like well George Soros you're only criticizing him because he's Jewish the fact that he and by the way he is an atheist but the you know I mean like the no one has there's no criticism of him because he's Jewish like that's that's not nothing to do with it it's like right it's not it's there's no there's no part of that that connects that's you that is you coming up with that conclusion not me

it's you it's you're saying oh well it must be because he's Jewish well why are you saying that?

Right.

That's not what we're saying.

Why are you saying it?

And

with Waters, it's the same thing here where she absolutely will criticize any Republican who criticizes an African-American, and she'll say it's because of race.

But here she is criticizing an African-American, calling him stupid.

It's perfectly fine.

I kind of tend to think that the color of your skin should not dictate whether that's okay.

Right?

You should be able to criticize anyone you want, no matter what the color of their skin is, as long as you're not criticizing them for the color of their skin.

Now you're making crazy talk.

I live back in the 60s with MLK.

That guy said kind of the same thing you just did.

It's insane.

What a maroon.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

Like listening to this podcast?

If you're not a subscriber, become one now on iTunes.

But while you're there, do us a favor and rate the show.

We have a major problem in our country, Pat, which is we have, I believe, 607 billionaires in this nation, and only three are running for president right now.

We need to get that number up.

I want to get it to at least half.

I mean, are they, they just don't care about their country?

The other 604

just don't care.

They don't care.

Wow.

You know, they're just fumbling their way through neurosurgery, probably, with Bed Carson.

That's what they're doing.

Mark Cuban is making some noise.

Now, I don't think he's jumping in

to run for president.

I mean, can we possibly have any more people who are running for president?

Well, we could.

I guess we could.

I keep saying we can't.

And then Duval Patrick jumps in.

Yes.

And then Michael Bloomberg jumps in.

Who else has jumped in recently?

Steyer jumped in late.

Yeah.

There has been, it just keeps, they keep coming.

The rumors

persist that maybe Hillary gets in.

I don't know.

I don't believe that.

Yeah.

I believed it for a while.

I'm not sure now.

We're past the filing deadlines in New Hampshire.

But not Iowa.

It's not until the end of the ⁇ I think the end of the year, like December 30th or something.

Is it really that late?

I think it is.

So you'd have to skip.

New Hampshire if you wanted, which is what Bloomberg is doing.

I don't know.

I mean, I don't know if Duval Patrick qualified, but I I mean, that's, I guess he probably must have because that's his only chance of competing.

I mean, this is the next-door state, even though he still has no chance.

Mark Cuban was asked, because people noticed at Yahoo Finance that he had registered democracy.com.

Now, he's not doing anything with it,

but it's democracy.com.

And the question was, well, what are you planning to do with democracy.com?

He says, Cuban says that he registered it because he didn't want it to be used by by someone with a political agenda.

So he was what?

What?

Okay.

Now, of course, it's the Mavs owner, a guy on Shark Tank.

And he says,

you should see all the domains I own.

I rarely sell any.

And when he was pressed about it, he said, and you can do this, you can play along right now.

If you're in front of your computer, if you're on your phone right now, play along here, Pat.

Okay, I'm going to play along.

Go to thepresident.com.

Thepresident.com.

Just having a tough time.

Thepresident.com.

All right.

Oh, it's Axis TV.

It's his website.

Magnolia Pictures.

It's Cuban companies.

All the Cuban companies.

Yeah.

So he asked.

Can you imagine this guy runs for president and he's got his website is thepresident.com?

That's a solid marketing tactic.

Very weird.

I don't know.

I mean, I feel like Trump has opened this door up and all these guys think they could be president now.

Because they all think they're.

Do you think

he's considering?

I do think, I mean, he's talked about

enough.

And he's talked about the fact that he can beat Trump.

He thinks.

He thinks so.

He thinks he can.

There's no way he could, but he thinks he could.

I don't know where he fits exactly because he, you know, they talked for a while.

They're like, oh, he's a libertarian.

He's not a libertarian.

He's not libertarian.

But he's also, and he's not really a Republican.

And he's certainly with this field, definitely not a Democrat.

I mean,

he'd be way more into the right of a Michael Bloomberg.

Yeah.

I think so.

He is a legitimately pro-business guy, but has a lot of policies that we wouldn't like as conservatives,

big health care initiatives and

all the rest.

But I mean, at least he has the same

things that you like about Trump where he's a guy who is a business person and understands those things.

He has those attributes, but we already have that guy in office, right?

Yeah.

So I don't know what the

would be for a Mark Cuban candidacy at this point.

And again, if you're a billionaire, why do you want that job?

Oh, gosh.

I don't even

talk about it.

A mega patriot, and you believe you're the only one who can fix it.

I can understand you taking the shot then, but why would you want this hassle?

Why would you open up yourself to all of this madness?

I wouldn't want anything to do with it.

If I was a billionaire, I'm just enjoying my life.

I'm not running for president.

I mean, you know, and you know, I mean, mean, you don't have to be a billionaire.

You just have to be massively wealthy to understand that, like, earning over $29,000 a year.

If you are.

Well, I can only dream.

I can only dream.

Yeah, that's never going to happen.

No.

But Bernie Sanders thinks you're rich at $29,000 a year.

I mean, I think Mark might earn more than that.

It's possible.

But when you're a billionaire, think of your life, right?

Every decision you've made works out.

Everything that you think is smart is smart and everyone tells you is smart.

It's understandable why you'd think you'd be the only guy guy who could fix whatever problem you're addressing.

Yeah.

And I'm sure that's why Bloomberg's in there.

Trump himself said that's why he was in there.

Steyer, I'm sure, is the same way.

And Cuban's probably the same way.

I mean, you could find, we could get it to a point where everybody running for president is a billionaire.

We're not that far away.

You're listening to the best of the Glendeck program.

Some good news because

CBS

is going to produce a drama based on Stacey Abrams' romance novels.

Wait, now Stacey Abrams, the true governor of the true governor of Georgia.

Georgia.

Yes.

The election was stolen from her.

And even though she lost by 50,000 votes, it was stolen from her.

I will say this too.

You bastards out there who think if Trump loses, it could be fixed.

And you're going to complain about this afterwards.

You bastards.

By the way, Stacey Abrams is the rightful governor of Georgia.

The fact that the left continually, Elizabeth Warren just says it.

She said the other day, it was like, oh, well, it's actually Stacey Abrams' seat, and it was taken from her.

Like, no.

That is not what happened.

That is not what happened.

She lost.

She lost the election.

It's over.

Get over it.

They can't.

They can't.

They won't.

So in 2004, she published a book, and she's done several since.

But this one was under the name Selena Montgomery, one of eight novels she's written under that name.

The book was entitled Never Tell.

And it follows the tale of a criminal psychologist with a dark past who works with an investigative journalist who is searching for a serial killer in New Orleans?

So, CBS is doing a full series on this.

Pretty amazing.

We were able to get a few excerpts from a few of her books.

Not just Never Tell, but we do have that as well.

I'm interested in this because this is something the left gets to do that the right would never be able to do.

Right.

Like, no one cares

about

Stacey Abrams and her romance novels.

Nobody cares about them.

No one.

There's no reason for this series to exist, right?

There's absolutely no chance of it being good.

Nobody's ever heard of Stacey Abrams' romance novels.

How much money did Netflix give Barack Obama to produce television shows?

Well, some rumors have it at $100 million, others at $50 million, but whatever it was, it was

tens of millions of dollars.

For what?

What have they proved?

Well, they did that Chinese thing, you know, the Chinese companies in America, or Chinese workers in America.

What was it called?

I don't know.

I did not watch it, so I don't remember the title.

But yeah, they got a lot of money for that.

A lot of money for that.

Now we'll see.

You're going to really be excited about the series when you hear

her incredible writing skill.

These are a few sentences I can read out of paragraphs.

This one from Sebastian Kane and Dr.

Caitlin Leida in Secrets and Lies.

Her book, Secrets and Lies.

Sounds saucy.

And this is a paragraph.

I can read part of one sentence.

Wow.

Yeah.

Not the full sentence.

No, I can't.

No.

But

with urgency, she accepted him,

fascinated by the power.

And

for a moment, she wavered, wondering if she was prepared.

In the next second, she knew she never could be.

So that's a lot of people.

Tell me, that's not powerful.

Tell me.

Really bad versions of

the trash at like airports.

Yes.

That you get at a

with Fabio on the cover.

The $5 rack

at an airport.

And I guess like this has been 50 Shades of Gray has made this into somewhat of an industry.

Is that what she's going for now?

I think so, yeah.

Now, from her book, hidden sins there are two sentences i can read from a paragraph oh yeah so this is exciting

full sentences uh

watch me love you he commanded silently wait how did he how did he come wait he commanded silently wait hold on wait watch me love you watch me love you because there's he commanded silently that's a good point i guess with his look yeah but you could do steely gaze you could say hey come over here silently because you could like wave your arm or you could.

How would you say, what is it again?

Watch me love you.

Watch me love you.

No, you're supposed to just get that from the look he's giving you.

What is that look?

I don't know what that expression is.

It's a lot of expressions.

I'm not a human face.

I'm not going to attempt it here on radio and TV.

Don't.

I don't want you to watch it.

It would be obscene.

It'd be obscene.

Okay.

And I'm not going to do it.

But.

Watch me love you.

He commanded silently.

Like, she just came up with, she had a random collection of words that you just thought silently went there.

Like, he has to do that audibly.

He can only command that audibly.

Yeah, but you let me get to the next.

I can't get past the silently thing.

It's driving me crazy.

Know that I will always be a part of you.

Now, I don't know if he actually spoke that out loud.

He doesn't say, or if that was silently as well.

You know, all good writers explain that completely.

They do.

They do.

They always say exactly how they commanded a thing, if it's audibly or silently.

And she didn't do that here.

It's a big mistake.

Right.

First thing you learn in writing class, make sure you say how people are commanded.

Are they commanded audibly or are they commanded silently?

Who knows?

This is on the level of.

Are you familiar with the podcast,

My Dad Wrote a Porno?

No.

No.

It is amazing.

The story is

this guy finds out that his dad has been writing these types types of books.

He just decided, because of like 50 Shades of Gray, to start writing like an X-rated novel.

This guy's dad.

So what they decided to do for a podcast is for all of them, and I think it's an HBO show now, too.

It's a really big podcast, but they decided to do is it's like three people, and they just sit around and he reads the entire book.

Think of your dad, and it's really filthy.

I mean, it is filthy, but horribly written.

Like Stacey Abrams level writing.

So it's really funny.

So he's making fun of his dad.

He's making fun of his dad.

And it's just so awkward because you're reading like the sex fantasies of your dad.

And then at the same time,

he doesn't seem to really understand the female anatomy all that well.

So

he writes things.

You're like, does he think that's how this works?

It's utterly unbelievable.

But it's about the level of writing from Stacey Abrams here.

There's one more sentence.

Oh, sorry, okay.

Before we get to take a break, if you're not afraid of the moment.

Are you commanding me audibly right now to stop this?

I'm commanding you audibly, yes, because I got to get to this line because it's powerful.

Sighs and pleas and moans mingled in enthralled chorus.

Right?

Is that beautiful or what?

Sighs.

Sighs

and please.

And please.

And moans.

And moans.

Mingled.

They mingled.

In an enthralled chorus.

So apparently there was a choir in there in the bedroom with them.

Right.

That they were singing while the act was happening.

And what she doesn't include there, it was all silent.

All the sighs and moans and pleas were sent to the children.

They were silently commanding the chorus to sing.

She should have included that.

Because I don't know if I heard it.

When I'm picturing this, I can't think of, am I hearing things or is it quiet?

It's hard to figure out.

I don't know.

I don't know because she doesn't specifically mention whether this is allowed or silent in this particular passage.

Wait, hold on.

The best of the Glenn Beck program.

Patton Stew for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program, 888727B ECK.

Our very own Chad Brater

doing a really cool special all this week.

Did it last night, has it tonight, and then tomorrow night.

Three-parter.

Three-part series on the weirdness of Jeffrey Epstein.

Now, that's not the name of it,

but Chad joins us now.

Hey, Chad.

Hey, good morning, man.

Yeah, there's a lot of weirdness there.

Yeah.

In fact, he kind of had a cult

or something to himself.

Didn't he want to impregnate a bunch of women and send them all over the world with his seed?

Something to that effect.

You know, people hear this stuff and they think that it's pure fiction because it reads like something else

crit novel.

And we were, we were, you know, as Candace Ortiz, you know, our editorial producer was doing research, we were looking into these things and we discovered that one of the things that Epstein found was that they were collecting the sperm of Nobel Prize recipients and they were putting it together in a lab because they felt that the world was getting dumber and that is their word quote dumber and I have to agree with them in that regard but what they were doing is they were wanting to start this whole new this whole generation

of smart people and they were gonna and so Epstein heard this now first of all what you have to understand for a guy who accomplished so much based on his history Epstein was not a smart people he was not a smart guy he was a college dropout that was a horrible math and science teacher at the high school level and so when you learn more of these things about it, that's exactly what he wanted to do.

He wanted to generate a whole world of Epsteins out there.

And that's what he was going to do.

He was going to bring, we're going to talk about that tonight on the special.

Tonight's episode is called The Devil Has Blue Eyes.

And that was their whole thing: they were going to bring in 20 girls at a time, impregnate them.

They had to sign away all rights to the child.

And it was going to be raised by, of course, Epstein and his

Jelaine Maxwell, Maxwell, who was sort of the queen to his whole chess set there that made all the connections for him and kind of ran the ring.

He wanted to raise 20 children by himself with Giselle?

Really?

Obviously,

one would think he would have some help out there, but I mean, that when you start seeing how big it is, it really is cult-like.

And that's one of the things that people don't realize.

And that's the dangerous place that we kind of stepped into

because we start talking about the King Ranch in New Mexico.

A lot lot of people think of the King Ranch in Texas, two totally different things.

Of course, Bruce King was at one time the governor of New Mexico, and they passed down political positions like family heirlooms in New Mexico.

They owned most of not only New Mexico ranch lands, but they also are the major producer of corn in the U.S.

So they're a big, big family.

And in most interviews, when they talk about the King Ranch, and I'll tell you why that's significant in a second, they actually bleep out that name.

They bleep out the King name.

But Epstein's New Mexico compound, of of course, we know about the Virgin Islands, the Little James Island that he flew, you know, the Lolita Express to.

What they don't know is that he had a 10,000-acre compound with a 27,000-square-foot home right in the middle of the King Ranch.

You could not get to it unless you went over it or through the King Ranch.

So he, in essence, isolated himself with one of the most political families, most powerful families in New Mexico.

It was like building a moat around your ranch with You were completely inaccessible.

And now we're starting to see these pictures that are emerging from, you know, the king, or I should say, what he called the Zorro Ranch there in the middle of New Mexico.

So that's where he was going to do that.

It's a pretty creepy place when you think about it.

Just down the road,

there is

a therapy place for Catholic priests that were caught in pedophilia.

There is a home for orphans that was co-founded by Prince Charles.

There's a number of different things.

It's, of course, where they, not far from, where they tested the atomic bombs and, again, set up a lot of the Nazi war criminals that they brought in to do genetic testing and create these things.

So New Mexico is a place for cryogenics, eugenics, and transhumanism, which is exactly what he's trying to accomplish in bringing these kids in.

So there's so many things that people don't know about the life of.

Jeffrey Epstein that are weird.

They think, well, here's a guy.

He's dead.

We're glad he's dead.

But his legacy lives on in a big way because he was not doing these things by himself.

And the people he was doing it with are still very much alive.

And so that's kind of the angle we tell the story from.

And honestly, Pat and Stu, whenever we tell this story, the average American would they look at the memes or they say Epstein didn't kill himself and that's all.

We have a good chuckle at that.

But most people can't even tell you where Epstein got his money from to begin with.

So there's a big story that's under the surface that a lot of people don't know.

We know about the guy who was convicted

as a child predator, as a sex offender in the late 2000s, 2006, 2007, 2008.

We know about that guy who really never served any time, never even reported to a parole officer.

But it's how he reinvented himself after that by associating with the Elon Musks, the Bill Gates, the Stephen Hawkings of the world.

These are the people that, and I'm not accusing them of any form of pedophilia, of course, but it was how he tried to rebuild his influence.

And ultimately, the goal for him was immortality.

It's really weird.

It's a weird story.

First of all, I don't even know how one would go about obtaining the seed from Nobel Prize winners.

I don't know.

Was there a prize?

Is there a website that you go to for that, Chad?

I don't even know how that goes.

You know,

my first thought is I wanted to question Barack Obama.

Maybe he's got a.

It's funny.

because he really

tried to rebuild his credibility after the arrest by these sort of like association.

He would try to find the bi he donate tons of money to

universities and centers that were on the cutting edge of science and tried to kind of play himself off as the scientist when he I mean, he wasn't.

And he tried to do this thing where he just basically tried to associate himself back into the good graces of up you know,

upstanding society.

It sort of worked for a long time.

It worked well.

And that's interesting.

We go back to where we started from.

Here's a college dropout who's now associating himself, and they're actually identifying almost as a colleague in Harvard science schools.

He donates $40 million

to what he was kind of into.

And not only that, they've never given a dime back.

MIT actually received a large donation.

They started giving some money back to disassociate themselves.

But you're talking about a guy who's who's basically his madam, if you will,

his child procurer, his female procurer,

Jelaine Maxwell, who is still at large.

We don't really know where she is.

You know, she was at Hillary Clinton's, I'm sorry, not Hillary, she was at Chelsea Clinton's wedding.

She's been on three or four vacations with with Chelsea Clinton.

This is a person who was highly associating, and it wasn't just about wealth.

It was about being able to have secrets.

His wealth was really not in money as much as it was in being able to buy people's secrets.

And those are the secrets we still don't know.

We're starting to see things get uncovered with Prince Andrew.

I find it somewhat humorous that now the queen is stepping in and won't let him have his 60th birthday party because of this.

And this is a guy who just last week on the BBC was talking about how much he doesn't like the pate.

So now, guess what?

Good thing you don't like the party because you're not getting one.

And so

there's some, where there's smoke, there's fire, and there's things that are there.

And that's what we've tried to do in these three episodes to say, look,

yeah,

he may be dead.

He may be on an island with a facelift.

We don't know.

But the legacy of it and the danger of it still lives on.

So

how did he make most of his money?

Where did that billion come from?

Well, you know, so first of all, what he did was he got into Bear Stearns.

He was a high school tutor.

He was having inappropriate relationships at the high school.

He was at the Danbury School, which is a very elite school in New York.

He was having inappropriate relationships with the students.

He was a terrible teacher.

He tried to make extra money on the side.

He gained the attention of someone named Lynn Keppel.

Her father was actually the CEO at the time of Bear Stearns.

He liked his moxie, so to speak.

He liked his hustle.

And so he was doing really, really well at Bear Stearns the first year and only year he was there.

And then he decided to resign, even though he was just killing it financially for them.

He resigned saying he was going on to bigger and better opportunities.

And that's the first sign you see of his MO.

And that is he was taking Bear Stearns' money.

and using it to buy influence.

So he was giving people loans, in essence, embezzling, but he wasn't keeping the money for himself.

He was buying influence with powerful people and he started the J.

Epstein company.

He associated himself with numerous people like Wes Wexner, Les Wexner, I'm sorry, who owns, of course, things like the Limited and Bath and Body Works and Victoria's Secret.

And he and Wexner would even, and this is just one example, Wexner would turn all of his assets over to Epstein as a financial counselor.

And Epstein would even replace people on their advisory board that were family members.

And he would say, No, you don't need that person.

And then these multi-millionaires would come to Epstein, and he would say, You have too much money.

It's too dangerous.

People are going to steal it from you.

So let me manage it for you.

So, in essence, he was stealing their money.

This is the thing that, you know, he winds up with like $460 million

after being involved with the Hoffenberg Ponzi scheme, which is the world's biggest Ponzi scheme that we've ever known.

Hoffenberg, of of course, goes to jail for 18 years.

Epstein doesn't see a day in jail.

And, of course, it was the New York City Municipal Court who's there.

Guess who appointed

that court?

Of course, it was Bill Clinton who was president at the time.

It's so weird.

You make such a great point on how he used.

It wasn't about his money.

It was about the way that he sort of like was willing to cross lines like crazy in every part of his life, but do it with a respectable face.

So people could associate with this really rich guy who seemed really accomplished and smart.

And no one would suspect that behind the scenes

he was willing to cross all these lines.

I mean, you look at the stuff he did in Miami with the girls, it's not just like he was hooking up with young girls.

The guy built a gigantic system to allow himself with recruitment, with

how to import them, how to hide it, what to ask for.

They had a whole system.

I mean, you even go to when he's in prison and he's supposed to be

in a cell and doesn't want to be in a cell.

So he pays his way to have lawyers be there basically every minute he's awake.

So he's in meetings with lawyers and he doesn't actually have to stay in the cell.

This is before his death.

I mean, he was a way, he was able to bend and break rules to create systems to allow otherwise respectable people to do

things that are not respected.

Yeah, and you take someone like Bill Gates, who is on record of saying, you know, hey, he's a very interesting guy with very interesting ideas.

You know, when Stephen Hawking is hanging around, these guys, they weren't interested in his brain.

They were interested in his influence and his money in that regard, of the things that he could get done with his charm.

And even when he was in prison before he died, there would be people who, other prisoners, who would have $100 here and there that would just show up in their commissary account.

And it was coming from Epstein.
