Deny and Sustain | Guest: Jeffy Fisher | 7/31/19

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenbeck program.

Pat and Stew for Glenn this week.

Woo!

What a great debate last night.

Was that fun?

Was that fun?

Oh, man.

I had a blast.

I could watch it all night and really kind of did because it lasted a long, long time.

Could that have been longer?

Well, it ended 15 minutes ago.

So yes, it could still be going on.

At one point, I'm like, what time is it?

And it's like 20 minutes after the start of the debate.

And all they've done is sing the national anthem, have the color guard come out and do opening statements.

They hadn't asked one question 20 minutes into the debate.

I know.

But it gave people a chance to catch up on the debate if they got, you know, if they joined it late.

Like Jeffy said, he joined it late, and so he didn't miss anything.

No, you can't.

There was no joining it late because there was nothing good.

Did you have a moment there where you're thinking to yourself, it was awesome when we had a country where capitalism was a part of it,

where people thought that the Constitution was something that we should think about occasionally.

Yeah, where class warfare wasn't practiced every single minute of every day by Democrats.

Maybe that would be great.

Yeah, that would be great.

I mean, I can't believe

this idea, and this is the narrative coming out of the media today, which is...

There was this battle for the soul of the party between the moderates and the left.

You know, you got the socialists out there, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren in the middle of the stage, and then you had all these moderates coming after him.

Yeah, no.

Where were the moderates exactly?

I didn't see anything.

What time did they get on the stage?

Because I missed all of them.

You know,

the moderate, think about this.

The moderate position now in the Democratic Party is only two years of free college for every single person in America.

That's the moderate position now.

That used to be an insane left-wing position.

Now it's the moderate position.

Even Steve Bullock last night said he's a progressive.

He's not a moderate.

Everybody's saying he's a moderate.

He says he's a progressive.

Well, okay, then you're saying essentially that you want the socialist policies they do.

You just want to progress there gradually.

Right.

That's all that is.

Oh, yeah.

And

that was the fascinating part of this because the discrepancy between Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and people like John Delaney and Bullock and others and Klobuchar.

None of it was based on the idea that getting to full socialism was a bad idea, that that would be a terrible outcome.

It was all based on we can only get certain things done.

Let's be realistic and get the parts of it we can get done now and keep advancing.

The only one who sort of stood up for some sort of sanity is Hickenlooper.

Right?

And he was, I would say, probably the worst one in the debate.

He's awful.

Brian is really bad, too.

He's also a a guy who went to

like a porn movie with his mom when he was 18.

This is a fact.

It's kind of weird stuff and he's a weird guy.

But at least he is saying, look, we need to

ground this party in reality.

We can't be socialists.

We can't.

We will lose the election if we're...

And I hope he's right about that.

But again, what you're saying is key.

It's not that socialism is bad.

It's We need to be realistic or we'll lose.

Because some of the American people don't see the brilliance of our socialism yet, so we need to slow play this thing.

That is a totally different point than saying socialism is bad.

I mean, Hickenlooper is a guy who's best known for basically saying, you know, that Second Amendment?

What if we didn't have it?

That's basically what he did in Colorado.

That's what he's famous for.

That's true.

You know, that whole Second Amendment thing, they probably didn't mean that one, right?

Like, that is where he comes from.

And he's, again, the moderate.

I mean, Delaney, I thought, had really

good points against Sanders and Warren.

And they went back and forth quite a bit about, you know, whether you can have Medicare for all.

Do you want to really want to force 100 million people to abandon their health care and go on government health insurance?

Yeah.

And

is that the type of thing we want to be?

As a Democratic Party, do we want to be the party that says, hey, we're taking away that thing that you like?

Right?

And that's a good point.

It is a good point.

However, he's not making it

with the idea of, well, the proper outcome is people should always be able to choose and the free market should have these wonderful forces to help control costs and all this.

It was like, well, if we do that, people will get mad at us and they'll elect Donald Trump and we won't be able to get any more socialism.

So if we do it my way, we'll get a good chunk more socialism and then we could do it again next election, right?

We can slow play this.

Like, people didn't like Obamacare at first,

so we can get Obamacare.

Then, next election, which is by the way, what they're doing,

they can come in and say, well, now we need Obamacare times two, or times three, or times four.

Which, again, is exactly what we said was going to happen.

And here it is, playing out, just like everybody knew it was going to happen.

Triple 8-727, back in 60 seconds.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

I'm also in love with the climate change hysteria, too, because

that's just good fun

when they tell us that we have 10 years.

But there was a little discrepancy.

It's either 12 years or it's 10 years and then catastrophe now.

And that was, by the way,

disproven by the people who did the study they're quoting.

They have

outwardly come out and said, no, it's not 12 years or 10 years.

That's not what the study says.

Why do people keep saying that?

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to clear it up.

And

it was actually fact-checked by NBC and others.

And they said there's no catastrophe after, you know, 2030 is not the demarcation of catastrophe for the climate change thing.

It's not.

What they're trying to say is that they need to do something.

You know, we need to get really serious about it.

They're just, they're not saying saying it's going to be catastrophic if we don't.

No, but who is going to respond if you say we need to get serious about it within 12 years?

They're like, nobody, right?

That's the problem.

And they know that, and that's why they keep doing the hysteria.

That's why.

Yeah, this is why they

lie.

This is why they lie about it because they know.

you know, they're trying to get people to act on this thing.

And it's a wonderful way to push this stuff through, right?

The Green New Deal was the most clear

illustration of this, right?

How long

have conservatives said global warming is essentially, the way the left uses it, a front to bring in large government control, slash socialism, slash every other freaking policy they've asked for for the past few decades?

Why not get it all done through environmental means?

And then they kept saying, like, what are you talking about?

This is science.

We have scientists here.

They're all saying how bad this is going to be.

This is crucial.

It's the most important issue.

It's not al-Qaeda.

It's not school shootings.

It's not opioids.

It is this.

This is the most important thing.

It's not even nuclear weapons.

It's this.

It's the globe warming 0.9 degrees over 100 years.

That's the most important thing.

So what's the policy you want to address with it?

Oh, here's the Green New Deal.

Why does it have Medicare for all in it?

Why does it have required jobs in it?

Why are you talking about every left-wing fever dream for the past half century?

Why are all of those things in the Green New Deal?

Because honestly, if you want to help the environment, the best thing we can do is let people die.

If people just die, then we'll cut the CO2 emissions.

You don't want extra health care.

It's the worst thing in the world for the environment.

People living is terrible.

That's their sell.

Did you guys talk about a couple of weeks ago, Mo Brooks was, they were doing a hearing on climate change, and Mo Brooks

got

four scientific global warming experts on to admit

that

the Earth has been warming for 20,000 years, ever since the last ice age.

Essentially, off and on, other than a few dips for little ice ages and whatever in the meantime, it's been warming for 20,000 years.

Was that caused by global warming?

Was that caused by humans?

Oh, of course, and every one of them said no.

And so

the average temperature increase, he said, over

the

centuries per century

was 0.4 degrees.

I think because it's gone up 11 degrees in 20,000 years.

So I think it worked out.

I don't remember all the specifics, but what he got them to admit was the average of the last 20,000 years is about the same as it's been the last hundred years.

It's really no different.

And yet they're attributing all of this in the last hundred years or the last 50 or the last 30 to humans, to human-caused

greenhouse gas emissions.

Amazing.

When it's the same as it's been

the Earth's natural climate-changing situation that's happened forever.

Tino, I can see the denial coming from you right now.

I can see it.

I can see it.

Yeah.

And it's scary because I live on this earth.

Yeah.

Yeah, I know you do.

My children live on this earth.

And what you're doing to them.

But with your denial.

What am I doing to your children?

You're terrifying me.

Oh, boy.

You know, this is why we can't just go with the moderate proposal for how to deal with global warming from someone like John Delaney, who's offering

too conservative an approach of only spending $4 trillion, his number,

on global warming.

Now, he's below a beto who I think is at $5 trillion.

We need to go ahead and get it.

And it goes up from there.

Are you saying about $90?

I say $90 trillion a month is about the number I'd like to, I'm comfortable with.

$90 trillion a month.

Can we fix it at $90 trillion a month?

We cannot.

Oh.

Because the problem is at that point,

you're printing so much money that just the machines to print the money cause more global warming, so you need to spend more.

But I mean,

I will say this: $90 trillion a month is not enough.

And you've seen these hardcore right-wing proposals from, again, the quote-unquote moderates last night in the debate.

John Delaney did mention this briefly, but I've looked at the extensive plan.

His plan, again, the moderate, the guy that you watched last night, I think everybody in this audience, if they watched the debate last night, watched and said, that guy actually kind of seems sensible on some of this stuff.

Like, he's okay on health.

I mean, I don't agree with him, but he's much better than Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.

He introduced a plan that would require every

person, when they turn 18 years old, to serve the government in a mandatory fashion for one or two years,

doing things like installing solar panels and

I love this one,

increasing awareness about sustainability.

Now, I don't know what that means exactly.

I assume it's like you have a megaphone.

You're like one of the end-of-the-world preachers who are just going, like, you know,

sustainability.

No, I want to be aware of it because I got to increase the awareness of sustainability.

So

sustain, if you would, please.

Thank you.

That is.

So you have to actually,

you're brought into service.

You're going to go to places and install solar panels because what 18-year-old who can't get my order right at a fast food restaurant wouldn't be capable of installing a solar panel.

I mean, of course, that's going to be just, it's going to come natural.

But they'll train them all to, and they'll pay them, and they'll put them up in housing, and it will be a requirement for every 18-year-old to do.

That's the moderate in this party.

Have you heard this?

Let's take a 60-second break here, Pat.

And we should come back.

Do you remember the Obama era?

Do you remember this?

Do you have any recollections of Barack Obama as president of the United States?

I actually do.

And remember how liberal they were, like really far left, and we were complaining about it all the time.

And there were were crazy people like David Axelrod and Rahm Emmanuel who were kind of going, they're just saying all these crazy left-wing things, and no one could believe it.

Yeah.

Let me tell you where these people stand now.

We'll do that in 60 seconds.

Warning.

If you're buried in debt you can't afford, do not let the credit card companies make you think you have to pay it all back because you don't.

So, back in the day, back in the old days when Barack Obama was president, there are a lot of figures we talked about.

People like Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod, who had really far left-wing views that none of us were comfortable with.

They were views that were rejected by big portions of the United States.

Remember, Obamacare was entirely unpopular.

The entire time it's existed since it was proposed until very recently.

It was very unpopular, underwater in almost every way.

Well,

Rahm Emanuel came out the other day and said, hey, I'm noticing these candidates going really far to the left.

And, you know, I don't think they understand what the middle of the country is like.

They're going so far left, they're never going to win in these states, you know, because he's obviously in Illinois.

But, I mean, the states that surround him are not hardcore left states.

Yeah, he's Wisconsin, Michigan.

They lost him last time.

This is a guy who dealt with the realities of, you know, governing a country.

Obviously, I think they did it very poorly, but at least he has awareness.

So first Rahm Emanuel comes out and says that yesterday or two days ago, here's David Axelrod talking about

where this party is going.

Again, this is not some conservative critique of the Democratic Party.

This is David freaking Axelrod.

Listen.

You said something interesting, which was it isn't good enough to argue that the country doesn't want this.

It does seem if you're running for president that you ought to take into consideration what the country wants.

And the fact is, large numbers of people oppose the Medicare for all proposal if it replaces private insurance.

We've seen it in poll after poll after poll.

A large number of people in this country do not believe the border should be decriminalized.

A large number of people in this country don't believe that undocumented immigrants should qualify for

public insurance.

Yeah, and by the way, he's right on all those things.

The polls show about 25 to 27 percent for all three of those policies.

So free health care for illegal immigrants, decriminalizing the border, Medicare for all,

eliminating private insurance, which is the Bernie and Elizabeth Warren plan.

You're talking about 26 or 27%

support by Americans.

And I believe all three of those policies are underwater with Democrats.

Okay, so think about this.

The people who are winning, somehow winning right now with the exception of Biden, he's the only thing in between Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders leading this race.

They're in the the center of the debate last night, and they're talking about policies that are underwater with Democrats.

How about John King from CNN talking about how far the party has moved to the left?

What Senator Sanders was just describing, what Senator Warren is describing, has not happened in our lifetime.

That a Democrat can run in a national election to be for Medicare for all, for free college tuition, maybe for reparations, for giving health care to undocumented immigrants, a host of liberal proposals way to the left of the last Democrat who won Barack Obama.

Way, way, way, way, way, way, way left to Bill Clinton, the Democrats who win before that.

My first campaign was Dukakis.

He was not as liberal.

I mean, this is remarkable.

Yeah.

Everyone is admitting this now.

This is something we've talked about forever, Pat.

You know, Bernie Sanders in 2013 proposing Medicare for all and getting zero co-sponsors on it.

Zero.

Yeah.

Now, I don't think he'd be able to stop people from co-sponsoring it.

He'd want the credit for himself, and everyone's jumping on his bandwagon.

And, you know, you can watch that debate last night, and I think pull out a lot of different things.

I thought Bernie Sanders, I mean, the man has never had a happy moment in his life.

I've never seen anyone who is more angry and awful.

There's no, I cannot imagine a candidate like that winning in the United States of America.

He is just an angry curmudgeon.

Yes.

And I, you know, look, people talk about Trump's anger and he gets pissed off a lot too, but at least occasionally he makes jokes.

Sanders is miserable, a miserable human being.

But I will say this, and I don't think he did a great job in the debate last night, but how can you not say he's the winner here?

He has absolutely transformed this party from a party that was really super liberal to a party that is outwardly socialist.

I mean, the fact that John Delaney, who is a Maryland congressperson, a former Maryland congressperson, looks like a conservative on the stage is really revealing.

David Axelrod, Rahm Emmanuel, John King there talking to you about how far this party has moved so quickly.

I mean, Bernie Sanders,

you know, his loss in 2016 and then the subsequent Hillary Clinton loss

has told this party they should just be honest about it.

It's exactly what Glenn said all those years, you know, to take the mask off.

Be honest about it.

These people

I cannot believe they're admitting that they want these policies.

I mean, Elizabeth Warren last night on stage saying we should decriminalize decriminalize border crossings.

Yeah, and she was asked point blank, are you saying you would decriminalize illegal border crossings?

Yes.

It was just a flat yes.

Yes.

And she went to battle something else afterwards, but she did say yes.

That's

incredible.

Yeah.

And I love this as it combines to their gun policies because it's like you say what you want to do is have an assault weapons ban.

Okay.

You want to take away guns from law-abiding citizens here in the United States, but at the same time, you want to open up the borders.

And we have no idea who's coming in.

Right.

What do you think's going to happen?

You know how drugs come across the border?

Yeah.

Do you think some guns might also come across that border when you open it up?

Is it possible a terrorist or two could come across a border?

It seems like it.

Isn't that such a strange combination of policies?

It's asinine.

It is asinine.

I don't think they care, though.

At this point, I think they're just resting this whole thing on, well, we think we can beat Trump.

And it's got to be a fascinating thing to watch.

Did you know, on average, it takes police 45 minutes to respond to a home security alarm?

That's almost an hour.

But it's not because the police are lazy or anything like that.

It's because when a home security system is triggered, most of the time, it's a false alarm, and the call goes to the bottom of the 911 list.

But not if you have Simply Safe Home Security.

Simply Safe can visually confirm that a break-in is happening and they let the police know.

It's Pat and Stew for Glenn, 888, 727BECK.

So the Democrat debate last night, just really hard to get through.

Unless, I guess, you're socialist and then you loved it.

I mean, if you are a refugee from the former Soviet Union because they weren't Marxist enough.

Not a lot of those.

This is your group right here.

This is your group.

It would be a weird choice

to leave a communist nation and go to the capitalism because you were upset.

What a coincidence you came to the right place.

Unless you were a spy.

I feel like

it's just spies,

except for the people now that can come and celebrate the idea that we are basically turning into the Soviet Union.

Now, as you mentioned, John Delaney was doing a little bit of trying to bring people back to earth, and Elizabeth Warren was having none of that.

Here's that little battle between the two of them last night.

She had the audience on her side.

Here in Washington is corruption.

It is giant corporations that have taken our government and that are holding it by the throat.

And we need to have the courage to fight back against that.

And until we're ready to do that, it's just more of the same.

Well, I'm ready to get in this fight.

I'm ready to win this fight.

Thank you, Senator Connor.

I mean, she is grown in a lab to lose to Donald Trump.

If Donald Trump could like be Dr.

Frankenstein and grow and build a candidate from scratch to possible,

it's her.

In the general election, she loses big.

This is an amazing moment for Democrats.

The fact that they would,

when they are are so obsessed with beating Donald Trump, the fact that they would even consider putting her on stage against Donald Trump is absolutely remarkable to me.

Now, she, because of many things out of everyone's control, when it gets down to two people against each other, anybody can win.

So, I mean, anybody they throw up there has a chance of beating Donald Trump because if the economy, you know, 2008 is a great example of this.

If the economy collapses in October, the person's going to lose.

You know, you never know when an FBI investigation is going going to get launched against one of them three days before the election.

Like, there's too much.

Once it gets down to two people,

who knows?

And that's why it's dangerous that a socialist, a real hardcore socialist, wins here for the Democrats because you just never know with these things.

But if there's anyone that Donald Trump can defeat easily in this field, it's her.

She's terrible.

She's terrible, and she is designed to lose to him.

And the fact that they keep elevating her is amazing.

And you pointed this out, Pat, when we were off the air, in that, like,

that is a good moment in a debate for Elizabeth Warren, but there is no substance to it.

None.

Because all you're saying is we can do,

we can sprout wings and fly.

Why am I not talking about big ideas?

When I'm president, Americans will sprout wings and fly.

Why run if we're not going to have big ideas?

Shut up.

Right.

It's just ridiculous.

Right.

And the fact is, if you look at not only before, but after that line, John Delaney smokes her on substance.

Yeah.

He actually was ⁇ I mean, look, Delaney's been running for president since like 1947.

He was the first Democrat that announced.

He's seriously been running, I think, since 2017.

So he announced before any of the known candidates.

He's been all over Iowa.

I mean, he's done the legwork.

He's funding his own campaign.

And yet he's still at zero.

He's at zero.

Well, he's at 1% sometimes.

Sometimes.

Sometimes.

He wouldn't be on the stage if he didn't get to 1% at least a couple of times.

But he was very well prepared.

He knew this stuff.

Audience just not on his side, so it looks like he got his butt kicked.

Though I think to the people watching it at home, he did really well.

I hope so.

But

that's the problem with debates right there.

That is a substance-free kind of piece of nonsense.

That's the part that people remember.

Go back to the first round.

Kamala Harris against Joe Biden.

Well, he comes out and she has this big moment about bussing.

We later on find out that she basically agrees with him on busing, and there's no real separation issue.

It's not even a current issue anyone's talking about.

But that's her winning the debate.

Yeah, it's been a while since we've had a busing controversy.

Yeah.

What year is it exactly?

1973.

It's 1973, Stu.

Let me give you another example of this that wasn't as big last night, but I'm curious to get your thoughts on it because this one drives me crazy for some reason.

Last night, Pete Buttigieg had a really, I thought, powerful moment towards the end of the debate in which he, you know, this is a guy who fought, you know, he's a veteran.

He fought in Afghanistan.

And he said, look, when I was leaving Afghanistan, I thought we were turning the lights out.

I thought we were going to be leaving.

It was going to be over.

And he's like, very soon, we will have

a person who will die in Afghanistan in combat that was not even born on 9-11.

Like, that is a powerful observation

in real terms.

Like, holy crap, because

it's been 18 years, right?

So someone who was was born in 2002

will soon be potentially at 18 years old serving in the military, could die in Afghanistan.

Really powerful point.

Wow.

Step back from it for a moment.

It's substance-free.

Yeah, it is.

You know what?

Would you rather have World War II where 10 million people die in three weeks?

Like, is that better?

Is it better?

Yes, I understand this idea.

We'd rather have the war be over.

Right.

Like, the idea of the length of time a war goes on as the thing that you judge is something that everybody on every side of every argument makes.

Both parties say it all the time, these wars go on too long.

What would you prefer when it comes to war?

The old wars were shorter and a hundred times the amount of people were dying.

Is that better?

No.

Because to me, it's not.

I would much rather have a war like this that lasts for 18 years and 3,000 people die than have a war where you have literally millions of people dying in a much shorter amount of time.

Now, of course, my actual preference is no wars, right?

My actual preference is that no one's dying.

But the idea that

just the start to end time is the way that you should look at these things is just an emotional appeal, right?

I mean, it is just an appeal.

Sure, we can all talk about how

it's not the best possible outcome because we would like it to be over.

And I think he's completely right on that.

At this point, we would love to be out of there, I think.

And I think

probably the person who wants to be out of there more than anybody is the president of the United States, who doesn't like wars really at all.

I mean, he has been an outward, I don't know, pacifist isn't the right term because he talks too tough for a pacifist, but he's a guy that has agreed with essentially the

left-wing or the libertarian sort of argument on almost all of these wars since he's been in the public eye.

And again, the idea that the Democrats can't figure out a way to praise him for these things is fascinating.

It just shows that their only level of dedication is to oppose Donald Trump.

And that is really just a way for them to get their own power, right?

But I mean,

the only thing they wake up every day with an idea to do is to figure out a way to disagree with Trump publicly to the extent that they will say, you know what's a great place to live in Baltimore.

You know what a fantastic place to be is?

That place when rats are crawling over you on a stained mattress in a drug alley that's fantastic and also a dead body right yeah

as you trip over a corpse walking down the street to Camden Yards what a wonderful and delightful experience that is they'll go to that level to agree disagree with this guy but I think you know you go to these debates and over and over again that's what you find is that the moment that everyone remembers is a substance-free moment where it's essentially a catchphrase and the audience claps.

Well, you know, Delaney came to that, I thought, as a serious person.

Is he a conservative?

No.

Is he even a liberal?

I don't even think, I don't even think that that applies.

He's to the left of what we used to think liberals were.

But at least he was prepared.

At least he understood what he was talking about.

He seemed to have actual, real experience and knowledge about healthcare that no one else on stage had.

And, you know, what we remember is Bernie Sanders yelling,

I wrote the damn bill.

Oh, shut up, Bernie.

another moment.

Another moment.

He probably prepared for, and they probably planned that out before the debate even happened.

Oh, he's awful.

Oh, he's terrible.

I mean, and could there be

a more miserable human being?

No.

He cannot have had an experience in his life a moment of time.

Where he was happy.

Yeah.

There's never been a time where he woke up and said, wow, look at the sun, the sky.

It's sunny, and there's not a cloud out there, and this is a great day.

There's never been a moment like that for Bernie Sanders in his entire life.

No, even when he's singing, he sounds miserable.

As I went walking

that ribbon of highway.

Oh, God, I love this.

I saw above me.

I saw above me that endless skyway.

Again, no, no R in the word saw, Bernie.

Are you sure?

Doesn't he sound miserable even when he sings?

As I went walking

down that highway.

What are you so mad about, Bernie?

It's a song.

What has happened to you?

What in your life has happened?

I think he had like,

he asked a girl out in like eighth grade, and she berated him and mocked him and did like, maybe he did like a carry thing.

Like at one point, he was standing in front of his high school and someone dropped pig blood out of a bucket onto his head.

And then this is his revenge.

He just comes out.

He's been rumble ever since.

I mean, I think at one point he stood up during the debate and he waved his arms around and all the doors closed in the back of the auditorium.

Like, what is happening with him?

He is constantly furious, constantly.

And there's no

modulation, you know?

There's not a moment where he's like calm and introspective.

It's just non-stop anger.

Which is why I can't understand for the life of me why he's popular with millennials.

I don't understand it.

He's a miserable curmudgeon.

Yeah.

Why do you like him?

What is it about him?

You just want free stuff, I guess.

I guess that's the only appeal.

There is that appeal of, I think, the unrelenting ideology that is appealing to you when you're young.

And it's honestly appealing to me, too.

I just don't like his ideology.

I think a lot of that happened with

Ron Paul.

When Ron Paul was running, there was the same sort of energy.

That's true.

You know, Ron was not nearly as angry as Bernie is, but he wasn't a happy guy.

Right.

But he was unrelenting, right?

He'd be the guy on stage.

You know, the libertarian philosophy is basically we don't go to war.

He's the guy on stage next to Rudy Giuliani,

sticking to it, being like, Yeah, no, we shouldn't have done anything about 9-11.

We should have just ignored it.

I mean, I'm totally exaggerating there for all the Ron Paul fans out there who will now email me, but you know what I'm saying.

That exchange was like,

it's a tough thing in a Republican debate to stand up and say, yeah, the whole 9-11 response was not good.

And he stuck by it.

And I think I like that.

I know I liked it when Cruz was running.

And he would stand up in Iowa and say, you know what?

You know, the whole ethanol thing?

No.

Like,

I like that.

And I think most, I think if you're an ideological person or

at some level,

when you're young, you have that sort of aspirational thing going on where you like the fact that people aren't apologizing.

They're unrelenting in what they believe.

And I think Bernie has that going on for him.

I think Elizabeth Warren has that going on for her at some level.

And it's why some of the energy of the party is there.

But I mean,

you have to look at this if you are a Democrat, and I'm glad they don't look at it this way, as

can you actually win this election?

And you throw out a Bernie Sanders,

how on earth can you expect to win?

An Elizabeth Warren, how on earth can you expect to win with these candidates?

And I guess that's why Joe Biden is still winning.

You know, I mean, Kamala Harris, I think, will try to walk the middle ground.

Maybe Buddha Jej is trying to do that.

But I mean, these candidates are not good.

You can't, it's hard to imagine a person who is

an old school Democrat.

You saw Tim Ryan on the stage last night.

I mean, he's hard to notice, but he was there.

And he's from Ohio.

And he sounded like a Democrat.

He sounded like, what's the guy you always bring up when we talk about presidential candidates that he's going to play with anytime?

Richard Gephardt.

Richard Gephardt.

He sounded like Richard Gephardt, right?

He did.

He sounded like...

You remember when Democrats used to be awful 20 years ago?

He sounded more like that awful Democrat than the awful Democrat of today.

And those people exist in places like Ohio and Michigan and Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

They're the reason why Donald Trump is president because they voted for Obama and then Trump.

And those people are going to look at Elizabeth Warren like she's as insane as she is.

And I just, I mean, if you're trying to win this election, I don't know how you go down that road if you're a Democrat.

Pat and Stew for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

There were some good moments last night, like

the time when Marianne Williamson showed that she suffers from inadvertent yodeling syndrome.

Normally, way over there with Bernie and Elizabeth.

Normally, way over there with Bernie and Elizabeth.

Normally, way over there with Bernie and Elizabeth.

She has IYS?

Yeah, she has IYYS.

Oh, my gosh.

IYS.

Inadvertent yodeling syndrome.

Can we hear that again?

That's in action right there.

Normally, way over there with Bernhan Elizabeth.

Normally, way over there with Bernhan Elizabeth on this one.

It's weird.

There's something about her, and I was trying to place this last night.

There is like some Saturday Night Live character that I feel like she's based on.

And I know that it's usually the reverse.

Like, well, they will take Saturday Night Live bases characters on real people.

I feel like she was based on an SNL character, and I can't place what it is.

There's something about her voice.

Like, I don't know if it's like, is it Maya Rudolph?

Is that who I'm thinking of from Saturday Night Live?

It's maybe one of her characters.

I don't know what it is, but there is something about

her that is just off.

It doesn't feel real.

Though I thought she did very well last night.

She did, I think, everything she had to do last night.

She was the most googled afterwards, I guess.

By far.

Yeah.

I mean, she was last time, too.

But part of that is just like, oh my God, this lady's hilarious.

And she's nuts.

And she's nuts.

But I think last night, I think she actually broke through to to the point of, she actually beat some of those guys.

I think she had one of the best performances for what she needed to do.

I would not be surprised at all if she makes the next round of debates after that.

You know,

I can't remember what publication was saying it, but they were saying that, like, when Marianne Williamson goes to these TV stations, everyone's like kind of all the anchors and stuff are kind of mocking her and laughing at her.

They said, like, the makeup people, though, are crying when they meet her.

They love her.

Oh, really?

And it's like, it's a different thing.

It's a different approach.

It's the Oprah fan, right?

And she can yoga.

Normally, way over there with Bernie, Norman,

way over there with Bernie Brune and Elizabeth on this one.

I'm Hillary.

That's your Format Abuzz.

Now here's Pat and Stew with more.

Thanks, Hillary.

Our sponsor, this half hours, Home Title Lock.

We've been dealing with Home Title Lock for a long time, and the reason for that is we actually care about our equity and our homes.

We don't want to lose it.

We have showed up to work friggin working with Glenn every day to put away a little bit of money and pay off your mortgage, and then someone's going to just steal your money.

No, I don't want that happening to me.

Now, look, if scammers take your home, if they are able to take your equity, this happens to thousands and thousands of people every year, unfortunately.

And when there's a big data breach, this information gets out there.

They can transfer

the title into their name and they can borrow money online, clean you out.

And if you don't want that to happen, you need home title lock because no bank or insurance or identity theft program can protect you from this.

Go to hometitalock.com right now.

Home title lock.com.

Make sure that you get the virtual protection around your home's title.

They have 60

risk-free days of protection going on right now.

And make sure you're not already a victim and protect yourself going forward.

With more on the debates coming up here in just a moment, it's Patton Stew in for Glenn.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenbeck program.

What Patents do this week?

Ah, great Democrat debate.

Last night, we're going through some of the

some of the things that were said, some of the promises made.

They're making so many promises, it's kind of hard to keep up.

The socialist policies are really prevalent, and the media is trying to present this as

if it was Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, the two essential socialists, essentially.

I mean, Bernie obviously admitted.

Elizabeth Warren, just basically a socialist,

she doesn't admit that, but she's got socialist policies.

But it was them against the moderates.

Come on.

These are not moderates.

That is their Overton window way of defining last night, which is now the moderates are the ones with the $5 trillion and $4 trillion

global warming plans, and then you go left from there.

The right-wing position, of course, is the multiple trillions of dollars to spend on every single project.

I mean, Delaney,

John Delaney last night, he's a guy, again, a congressman, 1%, maybe 2% in some polls.

This is an absolute dream for him last night.

They basically treated as if there were two candidates and it was Elizabeth Warren slash Bernie Sanders as one candidate and John Delaney as the second candidate.

And they were both tied at 22% and this was the final debate.

That's not how that thing was treated last night.

That's a miracle for Delaney.

And he handled it well.

I mean, think about this, Pat.

If tonight we turn on that debate and we unfortunately have to watch it again, if Joe Biden turned in the the performance of John Delaney last night, this is over.

Probably.

This primary

is over.

I mean, because he

Biden, if he could understand these issues and have a grasp on them and perform as well as John,

what's his face, Delaney did last night, lights are out.

What did you think of Budig

and his performance last night?

So I don't think he did anything impressive.

I don't think he stood out.

I think he has

a massive problem

that he is not recognizing, and somebody on his staff is telling me

it is a good idea, dude.

And he's got to stop it, or

he has no chance of being president of the United States, which I don't think is necessarily a bad thing.

I know one of them is a great thing.

But this is him talking about standing up for the right policy.

Here's what he said:

cut six,

Pete Buddha judge.

If it's true that if we embrace a far-left agenda, they're going to say we're a bunch of crazy socialists.

If we embrace a conservative agenda, you know what they're going to do?

They're going to say we're a bunch of crazy socialists.

So let's just stand up for the right policy, go out there and defend it.

That's the policy I'm putting forward.

Not because I think it's the right triangulation between Republicans here and Democrats here, but because I think it's the right answer.

People like my mother-in-law, who is here, whose life was saved by the ACA, but who is still far too vulnerable to the fact that the insurance industry

does not care about

the money?

an untrue point,

but a good one for a democratic debate, right?

To say that basically they're going to call us socialists no matter what we say.

We might as well just come out and go for the things that we want.

And of course, that should always be true, right?

That shouldn't be something you need to clap for.

You should always be promoting the policies you think are best.

But, you know, in debates, this is the way you work it, I guess.

Here he is invoking scripture, cut 15, Buddha judge invoking scripture because we're oppressing the poor.

Some of this is low-tech too.

Like the minimum wage is just too low.

And so-called conservative Christian senators right now in the Senate are blocking a bill to raise the minimum wage when scripture says that whoever oppresses the poor taunts their maker.

Oh my.

Mayor, thank you very much.

Yeah, see, that's what you should.

You can't be doing that.

He's gay.

You can't play it both ways.

Seriously.

Is that what you really want to do is invoke scripture?

Because

there, you know, it's incredible.

If If you want to play that game, people can play that game all of a sudden, right?

I mean, it's fair game.

If you're going to start casting aspersions at Christians in the Republican Party, can they not cast aspersions back at you?

They could.

I don't know if they will, but you really should stop using scripture for your points.

It comes off

horribly.

I mean, I don't know who he's trying to please with it.

I think it's the media because the media looks at Christianity as a political tool to hurt your opponent.

Yeah.

Right?

Like this.

So they think, okay, well, look, this is a great point by Budajech because he's using their rhetoric against them.

You know, they say they're so Christian, well, they don't want this government policy for minimum wage.

And we can

nail them with their Christianity.

That is not how Christians look at Christianity.

And I don't know if you know this.

This is a majority Christian country.

This is a country that if you get into the general election election and want to win any of the states that are anywhere near the Midwest where you are supposedly from and you represent those values, if you want to do that, trying to weaponize Christianity against

the moderates who might actually put you in the White House is not a good idea.

Really, no.

I know that feels good in that room.

I know afterwards when John King is interviewing on CNN, you nailed him.

Yo, you got this great point?

That is not going to win you any elections.

No, it's not.

Now, look, it's also completely wrong.

And it's a fourth grade argument.

It's one tenet of Christianity

where the government is called on to do anything for the poor or anybody else.

What they don't want you to do.

Jesus never said, hey, Rome needs to take care of people.

I'm tired of the Romans not taking care of people.

Right.

What they don't want you to do is what everyone on that stage did last night, which is worship government.

Yeah.

They had another idea about who you should worship.

It was, it's not government.

It's not Pete Buttigieg.

And the fact that Pete Budig is going to be this preacher who's going to come at us and tell us how to be Christians is utterly,

let's put it this way, utterly a very poor,

a very poor plan politically, at the very least.

Especially when he's trying to have it both ways because he's also calling out Mike Pants for taking the Bible literally against him.

Yeah.

And

that's a great point.

And I will say that it's very possible what he's trying to do is goad right-wing, you know,

the wings, you know, the far right and the right-wing to come out and start saying bad things about him personally and trying to goad him into being a victim.

He's trying to make himself a victim, essentially inviting these attacks.

But again,

I don't know that he can understand how insulting it is to

hear that from him, especially when it's such a basic argument.

The guy's a smart guy.

And the fact that you come with a fourth-grade argument about Christianity, the idea that any Christian understands is a BS argument.

I almost said the whole word there.

Not very Christian of me.

That is just not the right move for him.

Patent Stu for Glenn on the Glen Beck Program.

Terrible 88727BECK.

With your thoughts on the debate last night, it was a lot of fun.

Yeah, well, my head exploded multiple times.

Oh, my gosh, it's tough to watch, man.

This is I actually turned it off multiple times.

Then I guilted myself into going back to it because I just couldn't take it.

Oh, it's rough.

It's hard.

At one point, Donald Trump joked about how avoiding venereal disease was his Vietnam.

That's our Vietnam, okay?

Last night was our Vietnam.

As political talk show hosts,

dealing with diseases like we had to watch when it comes to the spread of progressivism.

That was tough to watch.

It's tough to take.

I was interested to see Elizabeth Warren on the border.

She's basically for open borders at this point.

Big time.

And she admits it.

Yeah, she's going to decriminalize the border.

She had this really good moment about the border situation last night.

Elizabeth Warren.

We must be a country that every day lives our values and that means we cannot make a declaration

thank you senator just to clarify would you decriminalize yes illegal border crossings the point is not about criminalization

yes just a flat yes flat yes and good job on dana bash by the way of following up because she avoided the question the first time right uh but they i'm glad they followed up but they they always go to that we've got to live our values since when was our value to let anybody come across the border that wants to?

That we don't know what they're doing.

We don't know why they're here.

We don't have any documentation on them.

We don't know if they mean harm to us and our families.

That's not an American value.

That's insanity.

Similar to that's national suicide.

Similar to what Buddha Judge was doing, though, right?

Like it's this idea that, well, we're nice.

Right.

Our values are that we're nice.

So when people who are doing it,

we just let them do what the things that they want to do.

Yeah.

Well, that's not our values are rule of law, too.

We are nice.

We have taken in more immigrants.

But we have some laws and some rules.

Yeah, right.

But more than anybody ever, right?

Like,

a million a year?

That's far more than any other country on earth.

And legally, we allow a million a year to immigrate to our country.

And again, this goes back a very long time.

It's just it's fascinating.

It's particularly fascinating coming from Elizabeth Warren, who has to realize that if she looks back in history, what are the results of open borders?

If

it wasn't for open borders, it would be her ancestors, her Native American ancestors, holding that debate last night, not us.

It could be her and the Cherokee tribe up on that stage running whatever country that would be named

and not us.

Open borders are not a good idea.

And the idea that you can say, well, look, number one, we're going to decriminalize the border.

By the way, about 26% support for that puppy.

Number two, we're going to give free health care to every illegal immigrant, about 27% of support among Americans for that particular policy.

You just

those two in combination bankrupts a nation.

Wisely.

You're inviting people to come in, and you say, well, if you get across the border, we're just going to say, eh, but by the way, here's your free health care card.

That's a lot of cash you're talking about.

And whether you're nice or not, you know, it's not really the point.

You know, we talk about this all the time.

People say, well,

the rates of murder and crime among citizens are higher than they are among illegal immigrants.

First of all, they usually don't use the word illegal there.

They usually say just immigrants.

And the reason they say just immigrants is because they want to include people who are some of the best people among us, right?

People who came here the right way, who actually navigated the nonsense that it takes to actually come here legally.

It's hard to do.

It's bureaucracy.

It's a typical government program.

It sucks.

So people who go through all of that and work here for a long period of time and do everything the right way, well, no one has a problem with those people.

The people we're talking about are people that don't do it the right way.

And, you know, but let's just say it's true, right?

Like illegal immigrants come here and never commit a crime.

Maybe one a year, right?

There's one a year.

Why would you import that one crime per year?

Why are you importing crime?

We have no choice but to deal with the annoying citizens we live with.

You know what?

A lot of them suck.

You know, I deal with them all the time.

Illegal immigrants are not the only problem we have.

A lot of our citizens are awful.

Okay?

You walk in, you walk into a restaurant, you got to deal with somebody behind the counter that spits in your food.

You got the person who cuts you off on the highway.

You try to get something done, and the people don't show up.

This stuff happens all the time.

I'm absolutely one of the annoying people to about half the country, right?

But we have no choice.

on that.

We have a choice whether we import people who are going to take as their first action in this nation

is to ignore our law right like we have a choice if you think about it like where you have your you have a family you're stuck with your family your family you might have jerks in your family you have to deal with but you're stuck with them you don't you're you're not stuck with your the with your friends you know you can choose your friends you can't choose your family and that is the situation here you know we we should be able to choose our friends we want people to come in we want to be friendly we are nice that is a principle blah blah, blah.

But the bottom line is, we still have to have a rule of law.

We still should have the opportunity to choose who comes in and who stays out.

That should not be too much to ask.

You do this with your home.

You would do this at your job.

You do this everywhere you go.

You make decisions like this.

And they act as if it's some hateful thing.

It's not.

We just have laws.

Mortgage rates are so low right now.

It is truly the right time to review your financial goals and set the course for your family's future.

My choice is American Financing.

They're a family-owned national mortgage banker with a salary-based mortgage consultant, so they're in it for you.

If it's your goal to purchase a new home, maybe you could use a little more space, or you're downsizing.

They can help.

If you're looking to consolidate debt into one low payment or just reduce your interest rate to pay less over the life of your loan, American Financing can save you thousands of dollars.

And if you're in a variable rate loan, I urge you get into a fixed rate.

American Financing, the only lender I endorse, the people I trust.

No commission, no upfront fees, and no pressure.

Patton Stewart Glenn on the Glenback program.

Of course, last night, Amy Klobuchar had to politicize, continue to politicize the Baltimore situation.

Cut 12.

Here's what Amy Klobuchar said about Baltimore president.

There are people that voted for Donald Trump before that aren't racist.

They just wanted a better shake in the economy.

And so I would appeal to to them.

But I don't think anyone can justify what this president is doing.

Little kids literally woke up this weekend, turned on the TV, and saw their president calling their city, the town of Baltimore, nothing more than a home for rats.

And I can tell you, as your president, that will stop.

It'll stop.

The rats will stop?

Yeah.

Yes.

She's going to, I think she's doing a St.

Patrick thing where she's leading the rats out of Baltimore with a flute or a

well,

she did talk about that a little bit.

I think you said you tuned out for a couple of moments.

I did.

There was a moment where she said, and if they don't follow me, I will squeeze them to death one by one with my hands.

Wow.

Which I thought was an aggressive policy.

That is.

I supported her on that.

The mass murder of the camera.

If she would do that, I would vote for her.

I would vote for her.

I would vote.

Swater balloons.

One in each hand.

Oh, man.

All over Baltimore.

By the way, Donald Trump did not say it was only a home for rats.

No, he did not say that.

That's not something he said.

Did not say that.

You know, there are a lot of rats that live there.

The outnumber citizens, about 10 to 1.

But that was a, you know, like, you can criticize Donald Trump if you want.

Can you at least say what he said?

Can you at least

attempt it?

Right.

Can you attempt it?

It would be nice.

By the way,

one of the local Baltimore stations went out to

talk about

what the president said, his awful statements about Baltimore and there being rats there.

And of course, we know that Baltimore is not just a rat town.

But

they were kind of challenging the president to come to Baltimore, visit Baltimore, see what Baltimore is really like.

And here's what happened as they're doing their report.

Now, we spoke with many people today who say the president should consider coming here to Baltimore to the

garden town area

and the rats for himself.

In the middle of the middle of the shot, a rat runs across the shot as they're talking about how Baltimore is so much more than rats.

And yes, it is, but what the president was saying was that there's a rat infestation, and there's nothing that demonstrates that better than

they can't find a 30-second camera shot without a rat running through it.

That is an infestation.

That's an infestation.

I think that's the very definition of an infestation, isn't it?

Oh, man, too.

I mean,

I know this is years ago for you in Baltimore, but I can go back a little bit closer to when we were in New York.

And I don't know if there's a rat infestation.

There were times, though, you'd go into the subway and there'd be big signs that said, what is it, rodenticide?

And it would be a big picture of rats

with a circle around it and the red slash through it.

And it would be like, hey, we're in the middle of killing millions of rats down here, just so you're aware.

You're in a tunnel with a bunch of rat killer.

But I mean, there were times, I remember sitting on the subway, and there would be these, when the subway would come down, it would come to the stop, and it would open up the doors, of course.

And

most of the time, it's open for about 30 seconds.

People get on, they get off, and they close up, and you go on to the next stop.

But, you know, the subway state, you know, is run by the government and it runs terribly.

So a lot of times you just go to the stop.

It would open up the doors, and they would just stay open, and you'd sit there for several minutes waiting for the stupid thing to close and move on.

And I remember looking out as you did very often out the subway doors onto the subway platform to see a giant pile of garbage because they just leave giant bags of garbage all over the place.

And at one point I remember looking out and kind of just get into these spaced-out modes and the bag starts moving.

You know, bags aren't supposed to move.

Like they're supposed to be garbage, paper, nothing alive inside.

This particular situation, there were a lot of of things alive inside.

They were rats.

And the rats were crawling around inside the garbage bags, but not sealed inside.

So they climbed out and started walking towards the subway car.

Now you've got like an army of rats approaching the car you're sitting in.

Jeez.

What do you do in that situation?

I hope the door closes for you.

I hope the door closes, which is what I did.

And luckily, it didn't.

Are you saying New York is nothing more than rats?

Is that what you're saying?

Apparently.

Why are you saying that?

Why do you hate New York?

Because there's white people that live there.

That's why.

Oh, okay.

That's okay.

Okay, good.

That's fine.

Yeah.

There's not a problem.

Seriously, there is not a problem with that.

It really isn't.

There's no problem.

I mean, you see.

You can say whatever you want about white people.

Use whatever epitaph you want against white people.

And that's still fine.

Crackers.

Honkies.

Even things that are blatantly racist.

Like we talked about this with one of the squad members that said,

we don't need any more brown faces that aren't brown voices.

Can you imagine saying, we don't need any white faces that aren't white voices?

You could just be done.

Your career's over.

Career's over immediately.

Yep.

You know, the squad, progressives, the left can say anything they want.

And they do.

And they do.

No consequences.

Triple 8, 727BECK.

It's Patton Stew for Glenn on the Glenn Peck program.

Patent Stew for Glenn this week.

Fortunately, we're looking for some justice, justice,

for some equity, for some equality for women's sports, and especially soccer, where the women's soccer team just won the world championship.

And so,

you know, they're just not paid accordingly.

They should make more than the men, which, by the way, they do.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

No, that's not true.

They're suing right now

saying that they don't make as much as the men.

Now, look,

people will say.

They're not going to make more than the men.

Well, it's equal pay for equal work is all they're requesting.

These are very simple requests.

Yeah, they are.

Equal work.

Like, for example, they should play the same teams that the men's team plays and see how it works out.

Yeah,

that wouldn't work out very well.

This one infuriates me too because it's such a fake argument.

And I have to believe that everybody in the media knows it.

Like, what do you have to ignore to make this into a real argument?

Because I want to get into the facts of this in a second.

Well, you have to ignore all revenue.

All revenue.

So, again, like, that's a huge part of this, right?

How much money is coming in to teams?

How much do you think?

Yes.

Like

if this company made zero dollars,

would we be paid what we're being paid now?

No.

No.

Right.

We'd be paid zero dollars.

Zero dollars.

Right.

If you worked for a company that brought in, you know, your show brought in $100 million and my show, a separate show, brought in $1 million.

Should we get the, we're doing this.

We're both working on a show.

And they're both three hours long.

Right.

Yeah, it doesn't work that way.

Asinine arguments that anyone would understand are ridiculous.

However,

you know, there is a little bit of

an effort, I think, by the media to just, they just want you to feel.

They want to turn on your feels.

Well, and it worked on us even.

I think we both talked about in the past when this discussion first began, and we didn't know much about it.

And they kept saying, well, women are paid, you know,

78 cents on the dollar to every man.

Yeah.

When I first heard that, I thought, well, so prevalent.

It's really bad.

And it's so prevalent and so unquestioned that, you know, this is, you know, years and years ago now.

But when I first heard that, when I was like in high school, you'd look at this, you'd be like, oh, wow, that's bad.

And we have to fix that.

That's not right.

And the only picture it creates is, of course, some executive who,

because this is how all white executives are, they just love men more than women.

I love that because women never get any preferential attitudes.

These little Phillies should be able to work for free.

Exactly.

That's what should happen around here.

That's what you picture, though.

And by the way, give me a beer.

Right.

You picture this sexist guy who's favoring the man.

Now, he has to have a southern accent.

Yes, of course.

He has to.

Now, oddly, someone like Kamala Harris talks about this when her career was built by having sex with her boss.

That's interesting and something that does not get brought up.

You're not supposed to bring that up.

Oh, it's really insensitive and hateful.

It's interesting because it's one of those times that the Me Too thing seemed to benefit her in quite a large way, as evidenced not only by the obvious optics of the system, she hooked up with the mayor of the city.

Which also

because he's proud of it.

Yes.

He loves the fact that he hooked up with Kamala Harris.

And that does add a bit of nuance to the Me Too debate.

What do you do when it helps someone?

Yeah.

Because that is essentially what happened with Kamala Harris.

You can talk about, now, look, she was a willing participant.

So that's different than the Me Too vibe vibe as far as it goes to like a Harvey Weinstein situation.

However, there are many cases involved in the Me Too movement in which women are willing participants, but we later find out that it was the guy's fault because the guy had power over her or the guy was too famous, Louis C.K., too famous for these other comedians to be able to resist.

And how many of them agreed at the time?

Dozens of times.

Dozens of times.

It's insane.

We had a comedian in here a couple weeks ago who had a situation just like this.

He was a guy who was

a very hard left-winger, was doing a left-wing podcast, was a comedian doing a left-wing podcast, talking about social justice all the time.

And he

would have, occasionally, he would be out on the road and maybe

a listener.

of the show or a fan of his comedy would make his way into the whatever high-quality hotel room he had that night and they would have a little evening, right?

And this is not something that's uncommon with entertainers, right?

You're a comedian, you're on the road.

This probably happens all the time.

Well,

when your fans are 100% social justice warrior crazy people, you're going to get a few of them that accuse you of all sorts of things in retrospect.

He had too much power over me.

He knew I was a fan.

He knew how much I loved his show, and he still did this.

And they ruined his life.

Every rocker from the 70s in prison then, because they all spent a little time with Gropies.

Yes.

All of them.

And they had that power, right?

Now, there's some of those rock stars that should be be in prison, but

Jimmy Page,

for instance, who kidnapped a 14-year-old girl and held her for five years.

But other than that, other than that, you know, they're doing okay.

You should, look, it's an icky part of our society, but you absolutely should have the right to hook up with

the rock star that you like.

That is part, and the rock star should be able to hook up with you.

If you're consenting adults.

If you're consenting adults.

Now, if you're 14, that's a different issue.

Exactly.

Oh, and only because it was 1970 did he ever get away with that because he should have been in jail.

Oh, my God.

At least the way I've heard that story reported.

Oh, my gosh.

Oh, my gosh.

That was an egregious case.

So I think this is fascinating, though, because this, as you get into the pay debate part of this, the pay debate thing, when you really drill down in the details, what you find out is there really isn't a pay gap.

There isn't a pay gap when you eliminate things like experience level and the type of job.

Because, I I mean, the way they actually calculate

length of employment, the way they calculate pay gap, legitimately, and it sounds ridiculous, but legitimately, what they do is take all the people who are working and just divide it by the amount of, the salary divided by the amount of people.

You can't do it that way.

Right.

Like if you were to.

Women have different priorities.

I know that we're supposed to be exactly the same,

but here's a surprise.

We're not.

Yeah, I know.

And we all do different things.

Like, for example, if you were to do the pay gap in this room where we're sitting right now, you'd have Pat and I, who identify as men, and Marissa, our producer, who identifies, I believe, as a female, correct?

Okay.

I'm glad you didn't assume.

Thank you for that.

No, I know.

I wanted to make sure I was sensitive.

Just in case she was out a couple of days.

You did not ask me if I identify as a man.

Fortunately,

you got it right.

I did get it right.

Lucky today.

I identify as a man.

Now, we have been working in this industry much longer than Marissa, who is younger than us.

We have different jobs, right?

We are hosting the show.

She's producing the show.

There's a lot of different variables here.

How you would figure out the pay gap is to take our average salary, Pat and I, and compare it to Marissa's.

That's how you would figure out the pay gap in this room.

Now, the pay gap, sorry to report this to Marissa, would be significant.

However,

she is shocked.

She thought people work for equal pay.

Why am I making less?

But I mean, you know, like, that's what happens, right?

Like, this is what you do.

The same thing happens when I came, if when I come in here on the days when I'm identifying as a female, which is usually Tuesdays and Fridays, Glenn is in here and he's identifying as a male usually on Tuesdays at least.

We're usually both female on Fridays.

But when we're opposite

genders, he's making a hell of a lot more money than me.

And there is a big pay gap there.

We're both on the same show.

We're both talking about the same topics.

We're both doing all the same things.

Yet he's making more.

Why?

Well, he's been doing it for longer.

His name's on the show.

He's the big host, blah, blah, blah.

That's what happens.

And so

that is a ridiculous statistic in and of itself.

However, at least if you were to do the math, I assume it comes out that way.

This is not the case with the soccer team thing.

The soccer team has been out on mainstream media getting lauded praise on them because they don't make as much money as the guys.

And they're suing

U.S.

soccer.

Well, that was probably a mistake because now U.S.

soccer is able to actually release the numbers as to what kind of pay is going on here with these teams.

And it is fascinating because it's not an issue about, well, the men make more revenue.

That's why they make more money.

No.

It's not, well, the men play more difficult competition.

That's why they make more money.

No.

It's not the men play at a longer schedule.

That's why they make more money.

No.

It is

the men make less money.

Period.

That is the actual truth of the matter.

The women actually make more money right now.

Right now.

Than the men.

Listen to these statistics.

That's crazy.

From 2010 to 2018, U.S.

soccer pay the U.S.

women's soccer team a combined $34.1 million in salary and game bonuses, while the men got $26.4 million.

The women made more than almost $8 million more over a decade.

$8 million

over a decade.

Well, they brought in more revenue, right?

Because they're more successful than the men.

We should also point out, the women get more benefits, fully paid health care, dental, vision, my gosh.

Severance.

The men don't get that.

401k retirement, paid maternity leave, guaranteed injury protection, and assistance for child care.

Men do not have that.

Why?

Because their collectively bargained agreement doesn't include it.

Now, whose fault is that?

Is that pay and equity for men?

No, they should have negotiated the contract better.

They should have done a better job.

But women have all those things.

From 2009 to 2019,

the gross revenue for women

was $101.3 million for an average of $425,000 per game.

The men's national team had a gross revenue of $185.7 million, so more, $80 million more revenue, over less games, 191 games, for $972,000 in revenue per game.

About double.

They got double the revenue and were paid $8 million less over the timeframe.

That is crazy.

Over an 11-year period, the women's national team generated a.

Now, again, like you're saying, okay,

this is where I about lost my mind.

Okay, the men are making more revenue and the women are making more money and getting more benefits.

How could this be even, how could it possibly be worse?

How could the facts possibly be more inaccurate than what you've heard in the mainstream media?

You're leading me to believe that it might be getting worse.

Interviews where you saw these women on TV just fighting for women's rights.

Why are we being crushed by the man?

Cry, cry, cry.

Over an 11-year period, the women's national team games generated a net loss of $27.5 million.

Oh, my gosh.

They lost $27 million.

Wow.

This is a money-losing operation.

Do we know the men's net revenue?

Let's see if that in here.

I wonder if they lost money too.

You know, both teams might lose money.

It is America, and we don't like soccer.

It's a communist sport.

It's awful.

And the best solution here is not to pay them equal, it's to pay them nothing because we delete the sport.

Just forget it.

Just forget the sport.

Now, you might say, well, I can kind of understand because the women's team, you know, in their respective sport, in the women's

World Cup, they're more successful than the men in the men's World Cup.

They are better at beating worse competition.

Yes.

Although, if they play the competition, they play.

Right.

But the men aren't.

I mean, the the men are ranked like 30th in the world.

Good.

I hope it goes down.

The women's team is number one.

I hope they're ranked last in the world so we can forget about this awful sport.

But that's a whole other story.

But we're not going to because they're trying to jam it down our throats like a metric system or something.

No!

I'm sorry.

No.

No.

I don't like soccer, and none of us understand the metric system.

There's no way to tell.

There's no way to tell.

Well, Lincoln Schafey.

Well, yeah.

Lincoln Schafey understood it.

Had we just jumped on that bandwagon, we would have been okay.

By now, we would have had the metric system.

We just elected Shafee.

But yeah, no, you're right.

I mean,

this is a situation in which

it's not close.

This is a situation where the basic facts of the argument have not been communicated to the people.

No, it's really amazing.

Really amazing.

And the lawsuit is progressing still, right?

No, they're still.

They're still going forward with it.

Well, for 10 years, you've made more money.

Oh, this is such a good excuse.

Just turn the thing off.

Yeah.

Turn off.

Just delete the team.

Delete the team.

There is no more U.S.

women's national team.

That's how you solve this problem.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

Patent's stew for Glenn this week.

Triple 8727BECK.

We've been talking about the Women's Soccer League.

They are suing U.S.

soccer for more money, when in fact they already make more money than the men do, which is amazing.

Amazing.

The one thing we didn't mention about some of the stats is that a couple of years ago in 2017, the U.S.

women's team came here to Dallas

and they were practicing for an upcoming match and they played the FC Dallas male team

and unfortunately, well, it was the FC Dallas 14-year-old team.

The what?

The 13- and 14-year-old team.

And they lost to the FC Dallas 13 and 14-year-old team 5-2.

And 5-2 is like a thousand-to-0 in basketball.

Yes, it is.

It's a beating.

It is a beating.

It's a beating.

And, you know, it's embarrassing.

Not a surprise.

Did they have an excuse?

We're like, oh, we weren't really trying to work on it.

Oh, it was a scrimmage, and we were working on some stuff.

Ah.

Uh-huh.

Yeah.

Well, you can work on stuff in a game like that.

However, when you get down 4-2, you stop working on stuff.

And you try to...

We don't want to lose to a 14-year-old boy team.

Yeah.

And they did.

And they did.

And, like, this is not, you know, this is what happens, right?

Yep.

I mean, it's not, I mean, you know, Diana Taurasi, I always think, is the best female basketball player I've ever seen.

She played for UConn.

She went to the WNBA.

She could hit threes like crazy.

Oh, my God.

She was impressive.

But, like, look, she's not going in the NBA.

Oh, no.

She's not going into men's college.

No.

You know, if she goes into men's high school ball, she's probably going to be pretty good, depending on where she plays.

Because, I mean,

she'd be a

junior high, high school.

I don't know where.

I mean, the same thing happened with Serena Williams, right?

Remember, the Williams sisters played against, what was the guy ranked 200 and 11?

201.

201.

What was the set?

Do you remember?

6-0?

6-0-6-1.

They did win a game.

Yeah, they did win one.

They did win one game.

Yeah, one of them won one because he beat, I think he beat one of them 6-0, and he beat the other one 6-1.

6-1.

Yeah.

And again, this guy was not a top 10.

He was 101st ranked player in the world.

And then they changed.

So then they changed.

Well, we could compete with anybody 300 or under.

Yeah.

Oh, good for you.

Okay.

This is the Glenbeck program.

And it's patents due for Glenn this week.

The debates last night talked about quite a bit of it.

There was also

the head of the...

Is he the head, Tom Perez?

Yeah, he is the head of the DNC, right?

He kind of set the stage for the whole thing before the debate got underway last night.

Yeah, and no one watched this, of course, because you'd be insane to do it.

Sadly,

it's at least peripheral to my job.

Because I only did it by mistake, to be honest with you.

I tuned in a few minutes early, so I was getting dinner ready.

I didn't realize I would see Tom Perez.

If I knew it, I would not have done this because I just, it immediately set me off before the debate even started, Pat.

I mean,

that's tough.

That is.

You don't want to go through a situation where you're angry.

Something that's going to make you even angrier.

Yeah.

That's a bad situation.

But let me give you this.

This is Perez

talking about Medicare, an amazing accomplishment by the Democrats, and the legacy of Medicare and what it can teach us today.

Here's Tom Perez from right before the debate yesterday.

Democrats dreamed of putting a man on the moon and we did just that.

We dreamed of a great society and we built it.

We dreamed that seniors and people with disabilities and people who are poor could get access to health care.

And 54 years ago today, President Johnson signed Medicaid and Medicare into law.

Folks.

Now, those are terrible programs.

And I will note, parenthetically, what did Republicans who opposed it call those laws?

Socialism.

Yes, this is a class exercise.

Socialism.

Ronald Reagan said, and I quote, Medicare will lead to socialized medicine.

Medicare will lead to socialism in America.

That's what he says.

He was full of it then, and these folks are full of it now when they try to distract you.

What?

It is leading to exactly that.

It was legitimately a perfect.

I mean, that's like an

a spooky prophecy from Ronald Reagan.

It would lead to socialism, and now what are we talking about?

Socialized medicine.

He is on the stage.

Wow.

Literally.

He's standing in front of a podium in the center of the stage, in which the person leading the field of this debate is an announced socialist.

And he makes that point.

The person standing next to him is

not an announcement.

In all intents and purposes,

a socialist as well.

They have the identical policies.

So Warren and Sanders are leading the field that's about to stand behind him, and he has the balls to mock a prediction that Medicare would lead to socialism.

Wow.

And you know what?

Medicare is leading to socialism.

And this is not something that a lot of people like to hear because Medicare is a very popular program.

And yet, it in and of itself is a form of socialism.

It's a big government program.

It is.

It's virtually socialism.

Yeah.

I mean,

it is.

It's what it is.

I mean, look, it is something that you might like.

You might think it's a good idea.

You've come to rely on it.

Exactly.

And a lot of people do.

Yep.

But it is absolutely a socialist program.

And because of it,

it has cleared the path for many more programs like it.

And

it's part of a long run from going back to FDR.

But Medicare in particular is a massive driver of our debt.

It is a complete and utter disaster.

Let me give you this stat.

In the next 30 years,

the CBO projects we are going to get an additional additional $80 trillion of debt.

$80 trillion of debt in the next 30 years is what they're predicting right now.

Now, you know, not including unfunded liabilities.

No, this is just, this is just what we're going to actually get in the next 30 years.

And that does, of course, not include any of the plans you heard talked about on stage last night.

It doesn't include any of the other crazy crap they're going to actually pass in the meantime.

We know it's going to be more than that, but 80 trillion is what they project right now.

The way they get to that number is Social Security and Medicare are projected projected to be $103 trillion in debt.

And the rest of the budget is supposed to be $23 trillion in surplus.

So, to get to $80 trillion, it's $103 trillion of Medicare and Social Security.

And it actually backs off from that back to $80 trillion because of

other parts of the budget.

That's how bad these programs are.

They're destroying our nation when it comes to debt.

Now, they may be important.

They are incredibly popular when you pull them.

I mean, 70% of Republicans approve of these programs.

But that's, that is the issue.

That is what Reagan was talking about.

Because now it's natural.

Now that dependence is part of your life as an American.

It's locked in.

It's yours.

No one fights about it.

When people come out and say, I'm going to change the year you're eligible by one year, they get voted out of office.

We now have both parties who run candidates who say, I will not touch one little tiny part of Medicare Medicare or Social Security.

Now, look, if you paid into the system, do you, you know, under an agreement,

you deserve what you should get, right?

I mean, like, you've paid into it.

That's not the situation.

None of these programs ever touch people who've already paid into it.

They always grandfather people in

because of that argument.

But I think conservatives a lot of times will look at these big government programs and say, you know what is a bad one?

The Obama phone.

You know what's a bad one?

Is welfare.

You know what the bad one is?

Is

even Obamacare, right?

Where so someone who is theoretically in need of something, the government gives them

handouts.

And sometimes those things get abused.

Those things are bad in a lot of ways.

But much worse is the universal program, Social Security and Medicare.

Because Bill freaking Gates can get Medicare.

Bill freaking Gates can get Social Security.

Why?

Delaney made a great point last night where he said, you know, why are we going to get rid of private insurance for everyone?

That would be like when we passed Social Security, we should have made pensions illegal.

That is a good point.

And it's true.

That's a good point.

This is all it is.

It's the government forcing you into this long-term scam, right?

Because we know the money isn't actually going to your health care.

But in theory, you pay a tax your whole life.

So later on, they give you, it's a government-forced savings program where you get basically no interest on your money.

It is insanity, but now it is so locked into the character of this country because you know what?

These things work socialism works when you when it comes down to manipulating public opinion it works this is why when it when obamacare was at 38 approval they forced it through anyway because they knew if they let they let it stick in there long enough people would get used to it would get dependent on it and it would become popular yep more coming up in a minute

It's Patton Stuford Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

The good news is, if you missed the debate last night,

you're in luck.

There's night two tonight.

And the two main players in this one will be Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

That should be interesting because as Biden described it, Kamala Harris took a two by four to him last time.

So I don't think he's going to be quite as pleasant.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

It's going to be messy.

I think there's a lot of interesting

dynamics in this one.

Obviously, the number one dynamic is, how does Joe Biden respond to being destroyed last time?

He has had time to prepare, no excuses.

He needs to be massively ready, and he needs to be able to do a good job tonight.

Not his typical middling performance in a debate.

He needs to do a good job.

He needs to show that he's not slipping because it looked last time like he was slipping.

Did.

Yeah, it did.

And so I'm going to be interested to see that, I think, as the number one takeaway from what we're going to see tonight.

And Will Harris go after him again.

And I think Harris, and by the way, you can get, I did the, there's a new edition of the power rankings, Democratic Power Rankings, out.

And, you know, we re-ranked from 25 to 1 all the candidates and how they're doing.

And it's worth checking out for a little pre-debate prep if you want to look at how they're doing and also make fun of them a little bit.

But Kamala Harris is an interesting one.

She actually finished second behind Biden overall in the field in this edition of the power rankings.

But I think there's stuff to worry about there because more than anyone else, Kamala Harris' run here is based on one spectacular moment.

And you can win a lot of basketball games by shooting 60% from three-point range, but you can't depend on that every game.

If her path to the presidency is a perfect debate performance every time, she's not going to win.

She needs to be able to do more.

She needs to be more consistent in between these debates.

And if she has a bad performance tonight, you can see her support going away quickly.

It's amazing how that moment is perceived to be so great, too, because what was it?

She was talking about, she didn't even tell the story well.

There was a person on a bus.

That person was me.

I was five years old at the time.

You had to create a little thing where you get drawn into it.

And then at the end, oh, by the way, I was that five-year-old girl.

She didn't even do it like that.

She didn't even do it.

It was pretty.

She didn't do it well.

I thought she did okay with it.

Plus, it's a story that is irrelevant.

Irrelevant.

And it's substance-free.

I mean, we find out later that basically she agrees with him on busing, which is even more ridiculous.

But again, she had several good moments in that debate.

Overall, she had a good performance.

I mean, I think she had

when it comes down to a large field debate, I don't know that I've ever seen anyone have a better night.

But that being said,

that is not a, you don't win elections.

As she's seeing, right, she had a nice burst up to about 15, but she's down to about 12 again.

Yeah.

You know, Biden.

Everything settled kind of back to where it was before the debate.

I mean, she definitely took a step up.

She was probably about five or six, maybe 7% before that.

She jumped up to about 15 and has held on to about 12.

So she's held maybe two-thirds of the bump, where Biden lost about 10 points and has regained probably two-thirds of the loss.

So, it was not a devastating thing, but at some point, Democrats are going to look at Biden if he continually turns in poor performances and said, Wow, if Kamala Harris is doing this to him,

what's Trump going to do to him?

So, I think that that's going to be interesting.

Another thing I did to draw your attention to, if you happen to be watching this disaster tonight, is Tulsi Gabbard.

Now, Gabbard, since the Kamala Harris or Kamala Harris debate, has

has run large amounts of interference for Joe Biden.

She has criticized

loudly

Kamala Harris' stance on busing and defended Joe Biden.

She has said Kamala Harris is not qualified to be president of the United States.

Probably the most

aggressive attacks in this entire primary so far have been in the past month from Tulsi Gabbard at Kamala Harris.

And it signals to me very strongly that Gabbard wants in on a Biden administration, whether it's VP or Secretary of Defense, something like that.

I mean, defense is her big thing.

Very well might be Secretary of Defense.

But

Kamala Harris needs to be prepared because Gabbard is pretty smart and she's a good debater.

And

if she's ganging up essentially on Harris with Biden, Harris better be

prepared for that because it's one thing to attack some old white guy.

You know, Tulsi Gabbard's not going to go away so easily.

So that's, I think, an interesting thing to watch as you go through this tonight.

Another amazing part of this is when you look at the field, the way they set up this field is the two people who are leading the polls are in the middle, right?

Biden and Hay Harris.

Two people who are

the worst in the polls, de Blasio and Michael Bennett, are on the ends.

And it goes in from there.

Who's standing next to Kamala Harris?

Think about this field for a second.

Who would you think?

You know, Corey Booker, Julian Castro, Kirsten Gillibrand, Jay Inslee, right?

Andrew Yang.

Andrew Yang is, you would say, I guess, is third place in this field right now.

And he had almost no time to talk in the first debate.

They wouldn't let him say much of anything, and he was not aggressive enough.

He just did not have a good night.

But, you know, it's first one of those things.

It would be interesting to see if he can do anything tonight.

He also called last night's debate,

he likened it to a boring football game.

Oh, really?

It's kind of interesting.

Yeah, because Democrats criticizing Democrat debates, that doesn't happen all that often.

It does not happen much.

Yeah.

Triple 8727BECK, more patent stew for Glenn coming up in him.

So, will there be anyone tonight who will continue the rich tradition of Democrat debate yodeling?

That's the one question.

Will we have a Yodeler as we did?

Normally, way over there with Bernie and Elizabeth.

Normally, way over there with Bernie and Elizabeth.

Normally, way over there with Bernie and Elizabeth.

My hope is that, yes, there will be yodeling again tonight.

I hope it's in Spanish, though.

I heard no Spanish last night.

Oh, that's just, but that's hateful, is what it is.

Yeah.

It's hateful.

What about those people?

I think in America who speak Spanish.

My requirement for every candidate is that they at least say one sentence in every debate in each language available to them.

Wouldn't that be inclusive in the world?

All the worlds and languages.

I think Klingon should be included in that.

I think some of the there are people who speak it.

Are you saying that they're wrong?

No.

They identify incorrectly.

Is that what you're saying?

Democratic candidates?

I hope not.

I am saying that somebody should speak it to me.

There you go.

I like that.

That should be interesting.

Yes.

I will be interested to see, too,

if the two people on stage who have a long-standing immunity to shame and embarrassment, Corey Booker and Bill de Blasio, I expect them, I expect fireworks out of both of them, particularly de Blasio because he's got nothing to lose.

I mean, he's basically at 0 or 1%.

He's going to, he will get to the left

begging for money, for donations, because he's trying to get to that 130,000 mark now.

Right.

And he's nowhere near that.

No.

So he is, just please, a dollar.

Just send me a dollar.

Send me anything.

Yeah.

And that's a fascinating part.

The one thing I thought Bill de Blasio would be good at would be getting money.

The guy is running a city, which is the financial center of the world, which is filled.

The entire city is filled with rich Democrats.

How does he not have more money than everybody else?

Because everyone hates him.

That's the answer.

He hasn't made a lot of friends.

Everyone hates him.

But he will try really hard.

First of all, he'll try to get to the left of everyone on stage.

And secondly,

I would be stunned if he does not go after Biden in particular because he wants the viral moments.

He's all about trying to get these viral moments to get attention.

Corey Booker, to a lesser extent, I think, will try the same thing.

Booker's pissed because Booker was actually criticizing Biden before Kamala was.

And then Kamala got the big moment out of it because Booker's terrible.

Like, Kamala, say what you say about her,

can at least perform a little bit.

You know, where Booker is just awful in every way.

He's just not good at this thing he's trying to do.

You know, a lot of people try a lot of different things.

Sometimes you're successful, sometimes you're not.

When you're not, and you realize you're bad at this thing you're trying to do, sometimes it's better to try something else.

You're not doing it.

Stop.

He is like the guy who comes in in the first episode of American Idol and tries out for singing.

Right.

And he thinks he's fantastic.

And he thinks he's good.

He's nailed it.

And his family's been telling him he's great for years.

And he goes in and he nails it.

And then Simon just disassembles him.

That is Corey Booker.

And he's going to try something tonight, I'm sure, to get himself on the highlights.

He's got some

Spartacus-esque line that he's going to try to roll out there tonight.

And that's going to be an embarrassment.

Because that's what he does.

It's pitchy, Doug.

It's just super pitchy.

It is pitchy, Dog.

dog.

For me, it's a no for me.

It's a no.

It's a no.

It's a no for me.

And that's what he's going to get from all the judges.

Yes.

I don't even think Democrats like Corey Booker.

Otherwise, he'd be in the teens at least right now.

Where is he?

2%?

Two or three.

At best?

He's still behind Betto, and Betto has virtually imploded.

The Betto thing is really rough.

That's an amazing.

You almost feel sorry for him.

Yeah.

But not quite.

Betto crossed an interesting line for me last night, which is my expectations have now become so low he actually exceeded them.

Did he?

Yes.

I thought he was just only bad.

Was it the 10-year thing on the climate change that swayed you?

No.

Listen to that again, and maybe it will sway you this time.

Here's Betto talking about

how desperate the climate change situation is.

Congressman O'Rourke.

I've listened to scientists on this, and they're very clear.

We don't have more than 10 years ago.

No, they're not clear on that.

Right.

And we won't meet that challenge with half steps or half measures or only half the country.

We've got to bring everyone in.

The people of Detroit and those that I listened to in Flint last week, they want the challenge.

They want those jobs.

They want to create the future for this country and the world.

Those community college students that I met in Tucum Carre, New Mexico understand that wind and solar jobs are the fastest growing jobs in the country.

And those farmers in Iowa say, pay me for the environmental services of planting cover crops and keeping more land in conservation easements.

That's how we meet the challenge.

So 10 years to climate catastrophe, according to Betto O'Rourke.

And he said he wanted to listen to the scientists.

I will tell you that the actual scientist who did the report he's talking about said specifically he was wrong on it in a fact check on Betto saying this.

But yet he's still saying it on stage at a debate.

It's amazing.

That's a good idea.

They've had no shame.

Yeah.

Absolutely no shame.

Triple 8727 back.

More Patent Stew for Glenn coming up.

Well, look who it is.

Hi.

Pat and Stew here for Glenn.

And then

Jeffy joins us.

Hi.

How are you doing?

We were doing okay.

Really?

Yeah, we stopped.

Say hello.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I thought I wanted to ease some people's fears.

You know, you didn't have to do that.

What?

You did not have to do it.

No, you couldn't.

We would have been, you know, okay if you didn't.

I mean, because I don't want you to put yourself out, right?

In the same building.

I figured out, you know, here, walk in.

Flowers is okay.

A lot of walking for someone like you.

A lot of walking.

yeah you know

which we don't want to encourage because who knows what could happen if i start walking around yeah yeah i mean i'd get in better shape than i am now

you're currently you describe yourself still as athletically overweight that's correct okay i don't know why you sound like you're doubting that but that's that's exactly what i am i mean look at him it's pretty clear

It's pretty clear.

There is something very clear when I look at him.

Yes.

What do you have for chewing?

I just just wanted to ease everyone up.

By the way, you can actually download the podcast, Chewing the Fat.

You can.

Thank you.

Podcast by the same name, Chewing the Fat,

which you can download.

You can also download

Pat Gray Unleashed.

Same time, same place.

It's available wherever you find your podcasts.

So there you go.

All right.

What's in your wallet, Pat?

What's in your wallet?

Don't carry a wallet.

Well, I just want to ease your fears because Capital One had a little issue and they put out their press release.

Look, it's only affecting about 100 million people

in the U.S.

That's not bad.

Another 6 million in Canada.

Don't worry about it.

And they put out a press release.

They wanted to ease the tension a little bit based on our analysis.

We believe it's unlikely that the information was used for fraud or disseminated by this individual.

However, we're going to continue to investigate.

And look, they wanted to make sure everybody knew no bank account numbers or Social Security numbers were compromised other than the 140,000 Social Security numbers or credit card customers and about 80,000 linked bank account numbers to our secured credit card customers.

But that's it, though.

That's not bad.

That's it.

That's not bad.

That's in addition to the 900 million homeowners files that were compromised about four months ago.

That's it.

It's not bad.

Right, right.

That's not everybody on earth.

And look,

fair.

Be fair.

No credit card account numbers or or login credentials were compromised,

and over 99% of Social Security numbers were not compromised.

So less than 1%.

Is it true that, too, this was essentially an inside job, right?

Someone who worked for Capital One, they think.

And the alleged person is actually a woman.

Is that accurate?

I do not know that.

That just doesn't fit the profile.

It's complete sexism.

Like, people are like, oh, so you're being sexist.

I am here.

I am.

I think it was a guy.

Would you say hackers are a pick of guys, right?

Yeah, you do.

It's like the old riddle.

A son is injured in a tragic car accident and is rushed to the emergency room for surgery right away.

The surgeon walks into the operating room and says, I can't operate on this person.

He's my son.

The doctor is not a man.

Who's the doctor?

A non-binary person?

I don't know if you delivered that exactly right but

it's still telling about our sexism

I will say every hacker movie does have the one hot hacker girl in it right there's always one

that's what this was who this was yeah that's the one attractive hacker girl who is like she's a little crazy you know like Mr.

Robot has these characters right there's a little they're always a little crazy a little off they usually have like pink hair so you you know that they're a little crazy,

but

crazy but attractive.

Yeah, but they're just attractive.

They're attractive.

They're just good at what they do.

They're good at what they do.

Thank you.

And hot in a nerdy way.

Like the glasses, maybe, maybe the

punk way.

It's a little bit alternative.

Still questioning authority like you.

Well, it's like if Cindy Crawford put on a pair of glasses,

you wouldn't assume she was a gorgeous woman.

And then you'd just be like, whoa, who's that nerd?

Yeah, who's that nerd?

Especially if she had her hair up, too.

Right?

Then you would never know.

know you wouldn't know those the only two things that make a woman attractive is whether she's wearing glasses or her hair or is she a hacker yeah yeah that's the way it works yeah and apparently that's what happened at capital one we've we've solved the case

so nothing to worry about everything's okay so uh a police officer in uh in indianapolis uh stopped at mcdonald's and uh picked up a little mc chicken uh for work and uh got his order and drove back to the old jail compilent and said, hey, the compliment?

Yeah, the compliment.

He drove back to the old job.

Yeah, the complex.

The old jail complex.

I'm sorry.

Did you just have a strike?

No, I was yodeling.

I was yodeling with Marianne.

Normally, way over there with Bernane.

Normally, way over there with Bernane.

See, I was trying to yodel.

Okay, quite good.

It was close.

And when he went to eat his sandwich, he realized there was some bites taken out of his sandwich and said, hey, did the guy at McDonald's taking bites out of my sandwich because I'm a police officer?

And he went back to McDonald's and got the guy in front of the counter and hollered at him and said, what's going on here?

He says, we'll give you a new sandwich, sir.

No, that's not good enough.

I want apologies around the well, he investigated, and the police officer had taken out the nibbles himself on the way back.

He had just forgotten what?

And he forgot that he took the bites out of the sandwich.

And the police department said, you know, we're sorry.

He went back and apologized to the McDonald's guy and said,

oops.

Sorry.

You know, we looked at the footage.

We looked at the footage and he had taken a couple of bites out of it before he put it in the refrigerator.

He just forgot about it.

Sorry.

Weird.

He didn't mean to be a jerk to you or, you know, cause any problems about McDonald's employees hating police officers or anything like that.

Never mind.

It's one of those things that could go viral and like ruin a hundred lives.

Right.

And later on, they're just like, ah, sorry about that.

Well, like, yeah, but I've already lost my job and I got divorced and I'm like, wait,

I will say, though, I could definitely see myself taking multiple bites out of a meal.

And forgetting I did it.

Very possible.

But for you, Jeffy, obviously, you've forgotten about entire meals.

I mean, per day.

You're like, hey, where's my dinner, honey?

And you're like, you just, you have the empty plate in your hand still.

You haven't even put it in the sink.

I will say, for years, I suffered from, you know, sleep eating.

It's a complex.

Sleep eating?

Yeah, that's true.

It's not as bad as IYS.

No.

No, it is not.

We all suffer from this apparently.

Inadvertent yodeling syndrome is tragic.

Normally, way over there with Bern Handeling.

Normally, way over there with Bernhelism.

I didn't realize I was suffering from it, but I am.

That really is amazing, that clip.

Isn't it?

There's something about her voice, and it's driving me nuts, I swear.

Yodels that might be

the only

socialism.

I'm not going to.

Dark forces.

I am not one to make fun of her, her serious physical ailment of unintentional.

What is it?

Intermittent IYS.

IYS.

It's easier to remember.

Yeah, what is it?

IYS.

Inadvertent syndrome.

Inadvertent.

Inadvertent yodeling syndrome.

I'm not going to make fun of that.

But there's something about her voice.

Maybe, Jeffy, because you watch every television show that's ever aired.

I think there's like an SNL character, maybe,

that it's reminding me of.

I feel like it's something like...

Because usually it's the other way around.

They base SNL characters on real people.

I feel like she's based herself on an SNL character.

Is that possible?

Sure, it's possible, but I couldn't tell you which would.

Is it the Al Franken character who used to say

what was it?

You're good enough.

You're good enough.

You're smart enough.

And darn it.

People like you.

People like you.

Interesting.

People did not like Al Franken.

No.

In reality.

They do now.

They do now again.

He's back in business.

Which is amazing.

He He is back in the business.

He's going to run for Senate.

Absolutely.

He's going to.

I think you're right.

And it's funny because what has happened as a result of this Al Franken thing where he we know for a fact

was taking what he would even call himself inappropriate photos with a woman where he was almost grounding her.

We know that she has accused him of much worse.

What is the result of that?

Number one, Al Franken's back in the good graces of the Democratic Party.

Number two, Kirsten Gillibrand for asking for him to step down is now persona non grata.

The woman takes the beating for the guy who did it.

Then the woman who is the accuser is now run through the mud in New York or New Yorker magazine.

Totally fine.

Totally fine to do that.

By the same people who believed the worst accuser of Kavanaugh, the one that no one believed, the same writer

now is trashing Al Franken's accuser.

Yeah.

That is how insincere the whole Me Too thing is for Democrats.

They couldn't care less about women.

Of course, they could not care less.

They don't care at all.

Whatever happened to Christina Blasey Ford?

When's the last time you heard from her?

Now that the Kavanaugh thing's over, do they care about justice in that case?

They can still bring charges.

They won't because they, one, know it's not true.

And two, don't care at all about her.

They don't care what happened to her.

They don't care if she actually went through it.

They don't care if she was ever telling the truth for a moment.

And the same goes with the Avenatti people that he brought to the table.

They didn't care if they were telling the truth.

They were lying the whole time.

Obviously, there are real victims of people like Harvey Weinstein.

And that's Avenatti, too, man.

That guy is

in many ways.

But that is not what Democrats said.

That had nothing to do with what the Democrats were doing with Me Too.

They didn't care about anything that had to do with Roy Moore.

They didn't care anything about any of the accusers from Kavanaugh.

They don't care about those people at all.

They don't care about them.

It was all a ploy for political gain.

And now that the cycle is over, these people are ejected out of the freaking, like they're in a top gun.

They're just ejected out of the plane.

Yep.

And poor Goose hit his head on the door, and you're never going to hear from him again.

I mean, Al Franken just wants his office back, Stu.

Why the hey?

It's unbelievable they're trying to rehabilitate this guy.

It is.

And I will say this too, Pat, and we were talking about this off the air the other day.

There are times in which you just need to freaking ignore social media.

Now, let's just take Al Franken's side here for a minute.

Let's just say he didn't do these things and these were false accusations because

in the last couple of weeks, there's been three that turned out to be false accusations about people that were completely disproven.

And so a lot of these two things, obviously, we know.

Not all of them were legitimate.

But like, if you're Al Franken and you're saying you didn't do these things, you're not this terrible person, why would you resign?

Why would you apologize?

Why would you do any of these things?

Why not just come out and fight it?

The guy guy bailed, and he's already got all the Democrats back on his side.

If he would have just waited

and he would have fought,

he probably would have been fine in a couple weeks.

And if I remember right, we may have even said that then

at the time.

Why is he resigning?

Because he didn't seem like he wanted to, and he just went with the tide.

They were forcing his hand to do it.

And I would assume like Schumer or something pressured him.

Once female senators turned against him, it was over.

Yeah, it was Gillibrand.

It was just over.

Especially in his own party.

Yeah.

And it was really Gillibrand led that, and now she is the one getting punished.

The Democratic Party is punishing a female senator because she said someone accused of sexual assault should step down.

That is who these people actually are.

When they come up here and they have these press conferences and they get all these high-minded ideas, in reality, that's who they are.

Remember the Franken thing.

I mean, look, I have no sympathy for Kirsten Gillibrand as a politician.

She's terrible.

Her policies are awful.

And she's not good at this.

She's not going to win the the nomination.

But the fact that she's being trashed by her own party for requesting a guy who was on camera doing inappropriate things with women.

And at the same time, they're bashing Brett Kavanaugh for something that no one can even remember what month or location it occurred.

And it was 40 years ago.

That tells you everything you need to know about the Democratic Party today.

Amen.

All I can say is normally way over there with Bernie Elizabeth on this one.

Patton Stu for Glenn also joining us Jeff Fisher

you found an interesting poll that just

came out quinipiak university poll and Harry Anton outlines this at CNN but it is amazing it just shows how ridiculous the world is right now 51% of voters believe that Donald Trump is a racist 51% of voters wow over half of them but they're told every day They're told every day.

All day, every day.

Part of me thinks, like, okay, it's partisan divide.

Like, this is somewhat common.

Though the historical perspective is jarring.

In September 1968,

they did a poll about George Wallace, a segregationist, asked if people believed he was racist.

Oh, my.

Only 41% agreed.

So 51 currently believe Donald Trump is a racist.

And

41% believe George Wallace was a racist.

Now, Wallace,

segregationist,

the Trump thing is fascinating because there's not one solid piece of evidence that he's racist.

And you can obviously point to a lot of things that would point the other way,

considering many of the policies he's done and

people he's hired and all of these things.

People would point out things like Charlottesville, and now they're going all the way to this Baltimore thing.

And

we wish we talked about about

Sunday.

The birtherism.

The birtherism all the time.

But these are things that basically they're reading into his mindset.

There's not a point where you didn't have to read anything into George Wallace.

You hear the Nixon tapes.

You hear Lyndon B.

Johnson behind the scenes.

There's no question of their deep racism.

I mean, LBJ was an absolute racist in every way.

But, you know, Trump, like, you have comments that are racially problematic for some, but there's no hardcore evidence

that he's a

maybe you didn't watch the debate last night, Stu, because Elizabeth Warren pointed out environmental racism, economic racism, healthcare racism,

healthcare racism, healthcare racism, huh?

Yeah, maybe you ought to just pay attention.

And how do you

be environmentally racist?

Well, he won't build any black hospitals.

It's only getting hotter in black neighborhoods.

I don't know how that works.

So bad.

Wow.

This is

what they're told over and over again.

We're told.

Yes.

All day, every day.

Especially on CNN.

Everyone's marinating it all the time as a fact.

So it's not surprising the numbers are high.

See you tomorrow.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.
