The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

Patton Stew for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

Triple 8, 727 back.

Big debate tonight.

This is part two,

night one of part two of the big debate.

We've now named the debates like their Harry Potter movies.

Like it's now part 7A.

It's going to have to be like that because there's 317 candidates.

We'll get into that coming up in just one minute.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Health concerns are a sad part of life.

I mean, it seems like there's always something that either hurts or bothers us health-wise, right?

Patton Stew again for Glenn, the Glenn Beck program.

Tonight is another big debate night, which sadly means we have to watch it, so you don't have to.

I will be live tweeting it at World of Stew.

Wonderful.

I know you will be live tweeting it as well at Pat Unleash.

All over it at Pat Unleash.

And when I say live tweeting it, you've, you know,

your Twitter account will be live for people to follow.

Yes.

Mine will, I will be filling your feed with nonsensical observations about the debate because it's the only way I can get through it.

And it does help me for the next day to remember what the hell happened.

But mainly mainly, I'll be making fun of the candidates.

That tends to be the way this goes.

And the reason for that is, of course, they're all terrible.

That's a true statement.

They really are.

So you have from the outside going in, Marianne Williamson.

Because she's got, what, 0%?

She said 0 or 1.

She hits one sometimes.

Okay.

Williamson is interesting in that she's the she's kind of a crazy

one.

Yeah, she's the one that said she was going to bat, she was going to politicize love and take on Donald Trump based on love.

Okay.

Which I don't know if that means she's hitting on him.

I don't know what that means exactly.

She doesn't seem to be saying loving things about him.

No.

I mean, not even close.

No.

But

she's like the Pat Benatar candidate.

She's the love as a battlefield candidate.

Right.

Okay.

And she comes out and she's going to say she's going to take it to the political

battlefield with love.

And the thing that you like about Marianne Williamson, and the reason why there's even reports.

Is there something I like about her?

Oh, yeah, you do.

Oh, okay.

You do.

If you watch the debates, you do, because she's nuts.

So it's fun.

She's watched her.

She's like the entertainment of these things.

There's a reason why some Republicans are even donating to her because they want to get her in future debates.

Like, there's an actual movement of people donating $1 to her.

That's funny.

Which sounds like a good idea, and it's funny until you get signed up to every Democratic donor list.

Yeah, then, no.

And then you're not going to like that idea.

Plus, I will tell you, it's not going to help.

Because she really, she's going to be able to get plenty of donors.

Her issue is going to be whether she

can get the polling to come through, which she's not going to be able to.

2% is going to be, it's a tough road.

She's going to have to be on Oprah every single day.

Yes.

In order to get 2%.

Then you got Tim Ryan.

Nobody knows who he is or where he comes from.

Nobody cares.

Yeah, Ohio Congressman had a really bad first debate.

So he is, I would say he's, if he makes it to the next one, I'll be surprised.

Me too.

Amy Klobuchar, it might be time for her to leave, too, because she's getting no traction.

She really isn't.

I mean, she should qualify for the next round of debate.

She can hit 2% here and there, but really not catching fire.

She's in one of those moments, Pat, where you're like,

she's enough of a candidate that has a chance, I think, to make noise that there's a temptation to get desperate.

There's a temptation to throw out a crazy policy, a newsmaker, to go on the attack against someone to try to get a viral video.

But she's probably better served doing what she's doing, honestly, and hoping for the Biden VP slot, which is legitimately realistic with her.

So stay back.

You know, she's Midwest.

That's where they need to win.

I would think Kamala Harris has a better shot at that than she does.

She may have a better shot, but Kamala Harris also might win the nomination.

Yeah, maybe, you know, and I can't imagine, I mean, look, we've seen this with George H.W.

Bush and Ronald Reagan, where sometimes they do pick the big rival.

But I don't know.

Is Joe Biden after getting

beat up by Kamala Harris in that first debate?

Can they patch it back up together for a VP slot situation?

Possibly, but I don't know.

I don't know that she's a lead candidate at this point.

Kalobashar is like, you know, she's from the Midwest, female candidate, obviously.

She has an excellent history when it comes to elections.

I mean,

her record as far as winning is very strong.

She's done very well in Minnesota.

And this is, of course, the area where,

you know, the Hillary thing kind of, you know, I mean, Minnesota's right in that.

I mean, they lost Michigan, they lost Wisconsin, they lost, you know, Pennsylvania, Ohio.

Those are the states they need to win.

She kind of fits that profile a little bit.

She does seem to fall into that, but if she gets desperate and tries, like, you know what,

I think everybody gets a puppy.

That might make news for a week.

It's not going to win her the election, and then she becomes a joke.

She has to make sure she doesn't cross that line.

We get into the inner kind of area now where

you're in the middle of the stage or getting close to it.

Pete Buddha Judge

is going to be right next to Bernie.

That one's going to be.

So that, I mean,

Bernie and Butta Judge are both in a kind of similar situation in that they

I feel like Buddha Judge has kind of cooled off now.

Yeah, I think the

it's fizzable.

The shine is sort of off him now, just like it came off Betto.

And that guy, he can't buy any attention.

No, he's in this debate tonight, too.

Yeah, he is.

And he cannot.

He is in a He's in a lot of trouble.

Yeah, he's done.

I think he's done.

He's become the joke of the campaign.

Yeah.

And which, you know, if he can't figure out a way to turn this around at some level and at least get back to respectability.

Did you see the thing where he's walking through an airport and I can't remember which airport it was, but some people are congratulating him.

Did you see that video?

He's walking through the video

and this woman screams, Hey, Betto, congratulations.

And he raises his hand and smiles and he's all happy that somebody recognized him.

Congratulations on your 0%.

And then you see his face go.

Just falls and he walks out the door, puts his arm down.

Yeah, okay.

I thought that was going to be something nice.

It turned out to be ugly.

He should have suspected it at the point.

Yeah, no, it's not going well for Betto.

So Betto, it's a big night for Betto, right?

He needs to figure out a way to make some sort of noise and just not be an embarrassment.

He can't get destroyed by someone else.

He needs to make news.

Buttigieg is in that weird position where, I mean, the fundraising has been fantastic.

He has the most fun.

He's basically leading the league in fundraising at this time.

But the polling has not just been uploaded.

That's amazing.

It is amazing, isn't it?

Last quarter, I think it was 25 million.

26 million.

Yeah, 25 million.

And then Biden was at 24 or something.

Yeah, Biden was a little bit behind with a little bit less time.

But Joe Biden is behind Mayor Pete.

Right.

That's amazing.

It is amazing.

So his fundraising is great.

Yeah.

His name recognition is still pretty low outside of these early states.

You know, he has a chance to grow.

The big issue with Mayor Pete, and I, you know, this is, can we get it?

This is a little delicate.

Can we have an adult conversation about something, Pat?

I hope so.

I hope so.

I just don't know if the American people can handle.

an adult conversation.

Here's the thing with Mayor Pete.

No black people will vote for him.

He is continually getting 0% African-American vote.

So we're going to finally have the conversation on race?

Because I think

we need to have a conversation on race.

And in this country, we just never have.

No, we will not do it.

Let's finally have a conversation on race.

People just don't notice it.

You know, and that's the big problem.

They don't focus on it enough.

It's interesting, though, because the other Democratic candidates, you look at their crosstabs, like the different categories as

white, male, female, moderate, liberal, black, white, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Most of the candidates are pretty consistent across the board there.

You know, you see the Elizabeth Warren and Joe Biden and Corey Booker.

You know, maybe Corey Booker does a little bit better with African Americans.

And, you know, Elizabeth Warren does a little bit better with the Cherokee tribe.

But they all have, they're all pretty much the same.

Not Mayor Pete.

Mayor Pete is pretty consistent across the board and then a big fat zilch when it comes to African-American voters.

How do you win a Democratic primary with a zero-has that happened since the controversy in

South Bend over

the police situation?

Do the American people, though, really know much about that particular incident?

I don't think so.

I don't think so, right?

I think you go back to looking at, and I wonder if this is a part of it, and some analysts have made this case.

If you go back and look at, let's say,

the gay marriage constitutional ban in California, what you found there is that

African Americans voted at a higher percentage with the conservative side of that argument, the ban of gay marriage, than did whites.

It was one of those situations where the black vote kind of led the charge on the ban of gay marriage in California.

And you sign it.

There's a giant, I think, split among the Democratic voters between this sort of

white woke liberal voter who is the person who wants, you know, transgendered people in every bathroom, as opposed to the black Democratic voter who's much more conservative culturally.

Yeah.

It's a different, there's a different profile there.

And for whatever reason, it could be what you were talking about.

There was the police incident with Mayor Pete.

Could be that they just don't know him.

Because, you know, South Carolina, you know, you're going to, that's your third state, and it's really the first time the African-American vote shows up in large numbers.

It could be that.

But it is interesting to see that that plays out because it's not playing out with other white candidates.

It's just Mayor Pete with the big fat zilch.

He's the one who stands out of this pack with African-American voters.

And if he does not, Bernie has a little bit of that going on, and it hurt him against Hillary last time.

But it is, it's something that if he does not solve that, he has zero chance to win this nomination.

He has to figure out a way to get African Americans to vote for him.

So next to Buddha Judge, as we mentioned, Bernie Sanders, right?

Right in the middle.

Yeah.

He is now

a reported truce,

a non-aggression pact with the woman standing next to him in this debate, Elizabeth.

Elizabeth, really?

Yes.

Because they're both basically socialists, right?

Elizabeth likes to say she's not.

But they all have the same policies, and they compete to see who can be more liberal on the policies.

Bernie is, I would give him points for at least admitting it.

I think that's better than the Elizabeth Warren approach, which is lying to the people and saying you're not a socialist.

And then you have the exact same policies as the socialists.

It's just dishonest.

This is just a lie.

I totally agree with that.

Be honest about it.

Say the truth.

And why not?

They're all doing that now.

When they're Democratic socialists, they usually come out and just say, I'm a Democratic socialist.

Yeah.

And you're seeing this, you know, when you look at these candidates,

these sort of far-left-wing policies that they're going after, because Medicare for all, right?

If you say it in the terms of Medicare for all who want it, right?

You're not outlawing private insurance.

You're just letting people choose a public option if they wish, right?

You're right.

That's nonsense.

That to me, of course, is nonsense.

But generally speaking, they tried that one already on us.

If you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan.

If we fall for that again,

embarrassing, especially for the same person, Joe Biden,

who was pitching it last time.

But that policy, generally speaking, is relatively popular.

It's popular among Democrats, very popular among Democrats.

And the voters as a whole say, well, I guess if I can just have an extra choice, I want it.

Now, that's a terrible policy, and obviously I disagree with it, but that is moderately popular.

What's not popular is outlawing private insurance.

What's not popular is giving universal health care to illegal immigrants.

These things are vastly unpopular policies, and everybody on stage is embracing them because they're all trying to race each other to the left.

I think it was, I think last time they actually asked the hand raise question, hey, who would give free health care to illegal immigrants?

All the candidates raised their hand.

All of them.

And that's why, by the way, you'll notice they've outlawed the hand raising question now.

Oh, they do.

Yeah, they're not doing it anymore because

they don't like to be put in these boxes of actually having to take an opinion.

Because, you know, if you have a long answer, you can always work your way out of it later.

If you raise your hand, it's a lot tougher.

Only Kamala Harris tries that.

She'll raise her hand and then say the next day she doesn't believe in the policy.

But no one else is really ballsy enough to try that.

So it's going to be interesting to see if that type of moment happens.

Because if Warren and Sanders are on

that front of basically saying, look, no more private insurance, this is a policy that even Democrats don't approve of.

So they're going to go so far left to win this nomination.

Can they come back anywhere close to the middle to try to beat Donald Trump in a general election?

It's going to be really difficult.

We're only 60% of the way through this list of

317 candidates on stage tonight.

We'll sum up

the last remaining 40% coming up in about a minute.

Round two of

the debates tonight.

Round two A.

Yeah, 2A.

Because it's the first night of round two.

And in debate 2A, they will all oppose 2A, the Second Amendment.

That's a totally different thing.

But yes, 2A, and then we'll have 2B, and then there will be a third round where it gets a lot harder to get into the debate.

So this could very well be the last time you see so many of these smiling faces.

There's also something really agonizing on the way, and that's a climate change town hall that's coming up on September 4th.

Oh, they are doing that.

With all the, yeah.

Won't that be great?

Now, is that the next

round of debates?

It's before the next round of debates.

So, they're not considering it a debate because everybody's on the same side of that.

Socialism.

Yes.

Yes.

So, so far, we've talked to Marianne Williamson, Tim Ryan, Amy

Klobuchar, Pete Buddha Judge.

Then you got Bernie Sanders in the middle with Elizabeth Warren.

And just next to Elizabeth Warren will be Betto, which is kind of surprising.

He still has enough juice to get next to Elizabeth Warren.

And then the guy who's supposedly

so moderate, so moderate that he...

He just went to porn movies with his mom when he was 18.

It's a beautiful story.

Brings a tear to your eye.

But John Hickenlooper.

Yes.

Now, Hickenlooper.

Hickenlooper has been opposing socialism, though, in the party, which I like.

Yeah, I mean, he's one of the few that will actually say socialism isn't a wonderful thing.

Yeah.

That being said, he's, and it's not a coincidence.

His campaign is completely falling apart.

He's had all these advisors leave.

He is.

I mean, look, he has not polled well anyway.

He's not extreme enough.

No, I just don't think there's a place for somebody like this.

There's not.

We all know that Joe Biden is there.

And Joe Biden is not a moderate in any way.

He's a moderate if you go back to 1989 and then the Soviet Union.

He's a moderate.

But

he's not a moderate.

He is a hardcore liberal.

He's just an old school liberal that will at least acknowledge capitalism occasionally.

He's a union Democrat, but that's a far-left figure.

Well, we forget that he was the most liberal senator in the Senate

when he became vice president for Barack Obama.

And now the question is, can he hold the nomination because he's too moderate?

That's how far the left has gone in such a short time.

It's incredible.

Really amazing.

But Hickenlooper is

at least positioning himself in that wing.

He's not actually a moderate either.

I mean, look at his

Second Amendment

history.

I mean, he is a problem.

Though, I mean, you know, he is a he's as close as you're going to get to a moderate Democrat in in the field, with the exception of the guy standing next to him, John Delaney, perhaps, who's a, you know, kind of a businessman.

It's funny, this whole side of

the debate stage, which is John Hickenlooper, next to him, John Delaney, next to him, Steve Bullock, are arguably the three most moderate candidates in the entire field.

They're all standing kind of far to the right, and how all are at 0%.

So I don't know what exactly that says about the Democratic field, but you can't win the Democratic nomination at this point saying things like, you know, socialism is bad.

You know,

John Delaney said, hey, you know,

Medicare for all is just bad policy.

It doesn't work.

And

we're going to lose the election if we try to embrace that.

And he's booed.

He says socialism is bad.

He's booed in this field.

Yeah.

Bully.

He's also a guy who's funding his own campaign.

Yeah.

Which I kind of respect.

And a little bit more potential than some of these other people, you know, like a John Hickenlooper who has no chance and no money.

He at least has money,

which does at least, you know, he's hired decent advisors.

He has a ground game in Iowa.

He's Iowa robust 100%.

I mean, Delaney's been in the field for a long time.

He's the first candidate that announced.

He's been to every county in Iowa.

He's done that sort of thing.

It has not worked, but he does usually show up at Iowa polls.

When you're a low-profile governor of Montana, how do you even think?

Hey, I got a shot at this.

I'm going to run for president.

I got a real shot.

Well, his argument is I want a Trump state, right?

I mean, and

you know, this is he got it very late.

This is his first time.

He was not on the stage last time, so he's one of the things.

He's the only new face out of this field.

So, in some ways, you could find that to be interesting if you're a real nerd.

Yeah.

But, I mean, you know Montana.

You're from Montana.

Does Steve Bullet going to be dynamic enough to win this nomination?

No.

I don't think so.

You just said, you're just going to Frank just say no,

no.

Way out on that limb.

Wow.

Now Now it might break right out from under me, but I'm willing to get out there.

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 in for Glenn.

888-727-BEC is the phone number.

Pat, I want to tell you the story of Carissa Pinkston.

Oh, I've been waiting to hear Carissa's story for some time now.

Yeah.

I think.

Okay, so Carissa's a model.

Okay.

She's a 20-year-old model.

And

she's done something in this this society you cannot do.

She has

she has done a she's she's participated in a banned activity, which is she has discussed her opinion on transgendered issues.

She has decided unless it's she thinks

like five-year-olds should decide to change their gender, then she should be in prison.

Well, that would be okay, but that you can't say it's an opinion.

It's only a fact.

Oh, okay.

Okay.

If you say it's your opinion, then you're actually on the wrong side of it, even if your opinion aligns with others.

This is just science.

Science is that five-year-olds should be changing their gender a couple times a week.

That's science.

We had a story, by the way, maybe we should touch on that later, about parents who allowed their kids at five to switch genders.

So they had one boy who switched to a girl and a girl who switched to a boy, and now they're 11 and 7.

And so

it's going to be.

It's scientific.

I will say there's going to be some interesting episodes of like date line in 20 years.

That's for sure.

When these kids are like, what the hell, mom?

Yeah.

I was also.

Right.

You know,

I wanted to jump off the roof with a cape on.

Yeah.

And it's going to be funny.

It'll be really tragic.

It really will be.

I mean, at least for some, you know, some may be fine for some.

I mean, we know that

the medical studies, they've done a lot of research into this, obviously, and they found that people who express in their teenage years an urge to change genders and are unable to do so

we we know that a about 86%

of them wind up later in life being fine with a gender they have so there is a percentage even in in their teen years yeah so

if they say you know what I want to be a if they're a boy and they say you know what I want to be a girl and for whatever reason they're not able to make that transition when they're a child like there's a sane parent around

then later in life, they're usually okay with it, they're almost exclusively okay with the gender and they're comfortable in their bodies.

Now,

this is a fascinating part of this: is that a large percentage of them, a disproportionate percentage of them, wind up being either gay or lesbian.

So, when you're having these surgeries early, you're legitimately giving surgery to turn

L's and Gs into Ts.

Right?

Like the people who start off, who would wind up being lesbian and gay, you're turning them into transgenders

earlier than they can even make the decision.

So they wind up later in life saying, you know, I'm glad I stayed where I was.

And there's an overwhelming majority of these people that wind up in that

package.

It's just the way that it, you know, it turns out that

is science, at least at this point in our understanding of it.

However, that does not get away.

That does not, none of this excuses

Chrissa Pinkson and her actions.

Okay.

Oh, no.

She came out and she apparently wrote a comment on social media in which she said, being transgender does not make you a woman.

It makes you simply transgender.

Now,

why?

Why the hate, right?

Why?

That is deep hatred.

Oh.

Now, she's not, of course, saying...

That's like genocidal hatred right there.

Oh, I think it's a quote from Mein Kampf.

If I remember right, I'm pretty sure it's right like she took it directly from Adolf Hitler.

Yes, that's my impression.

Me too.

Now, she wrote that on Facebook.

She also went on social media and said,

after she got a little bit of backlash, and she's a 20-year-old model, she got a little bit of backlash on this comment.

So she said, I really do want to take back my trans comment because if they can say that they're a woman, I can reclaim my virginity.

Now, probably that's okay.

You probably can reclaim your virginity in our society by just saying it.

I don't know.

I don't know what the well, it's how you identify.

If you identify as a virgin, you're a virgin.

Probably true.

Okay.

Now, she went on again and said,

it's science.

Now, this is now she's crossed the hate line

in a dramatic fashion.

Again, by the way, she's already crossed that line, and now she's doing it again.

Okay.

So, 20-year-old model,

saying all these things, saying, you know, a man and a man is a man and a woman is a woman is science.

I mean, this is terrible.

So what happens, obviously, to her?

She gets fired.

Of course, because she gets fired from her modeling job.

She goes on to Instagram and is crying, is very upset about what happened to her.

And she says,

you know, she's crying and like sobbing and I think she had some technical problems and no one knew exactly what she was saying.

So the next day she comes out and she makes a statement.

And this is where we get all like M.

Night Shyamalahunt twist

on the story.

Are you ready for this?

She says, quote,

I wasn't ready to come out about it yet, but today I got fired and I've been receiving hate mail and death threats ever since.

So I'm forced to tell the truth.

I am transgender.

What?

I transitioned at a very young age and I've lived my life as a female ever since.

It's been very hard to keep this secret, but what I said about trans women is a direct reflection of my inner insecurities, and I have since come to realize that I am a woman.

We all are.

We all are.

We're all women.

Well, I think everybody on this planet is a woman.

I think that's a good idea.

How do we be creative?

That's strange.

Are you saying that?

No, I'm not saying that.

Pac Bray just said that men cannot have children.

Men cannot be pregnant.

You heard it out of his mouth.

I want him.

Get a letter-writing campaign started right now because you just let it slip that you believe men can't be pregnant.

I want that noted on the record today.

So here's this 20-year-old model comes out and makes what are called transphobic.

Or is she just trying desperately now to get it?

Well, she makes these transphobic sort of comments, gets fired, and then comes out as trans.

Yeah.

The next day,

she comes out again with this comment.

I apologize for my transphobic remark and every remark I've ever made towards the trans community.

I panicked and thought if I came out as trans,

if I came out as trans, I could somehow make things better.

No,

so she's not

trans.

She faked coming out as trans to try to get out of getting fired for being transphobic.

Because you could, you know, check that.

I don't,

you probably could.

I think.

Well, you know, I don't know how that works anymore.

When you get a woman or a person who identifies as a woman to check her womanhood.

And

tell me, how does

that?

Because you don't know how she identifies if you just check downstairs.

Again, you're revealing yourself as such a hater.

The only way you're going to get out of this.

She's trying to help her.

The only way you're going to get.

Okay.

Stu?

Yes.

I'm a trans.

You are.

Trans.

Yes.

Yeah, I transitioned.

When you were young?

When I was 12.

I was 12 years old.

Because I've known you for a very long time.

And I've always known you as a man.

As a man.

I was born a woman.

So you aren't.

Are we all men?

We're all men.

Okay, good.

All of us.

Okay, I'm not.

But I thought it might save me.

I'm not a trans person.

I didn't transition at 12.

Okay.

But I thought maybe it would save me.

And just because I got myself into trouble, according to you, and I wanted to get out of it.

And so I said I was trans, but I made that up.

You're okay.

I know that surprises you, and you're disappointed now, but that's this is like

it's like I see dead people actually know he's right there.

He's real.

He's alive.

Like that is the twist here.

It's so weird.

It's so weird.

So this is what she said.

This is her full comment.

She says, I apologize for any transphobic remark I've made towards the trans community.

I panicked and thought if I came out as trans, I could somehow make things better for myself, but it appears

I've only made things worse.

Yeah, you think?

You think?

I'm truly sorry.

I'm only 20 and I'm human.

I made mistakes, but I refuse to let them define me.

I hope you all can forgive me and move on from this because I'm so much more than this incident and I'm not a coward.

Unfortunately, like we live in a society where they will not forgive her for this.

And you know what?

When you are 20, and she's obviously

not necessarily the best decision maker, perhaps, in America.

You know,

she shouldn't be defined by this moment, right?

Like, this shouldn't be.

No.

We do this constantly.

She shouldn't be fired for saying what she said.

So what?

She's 20.

She's 20.

First of all, her comments were not that bad.

Right.

It was an opinion held by the majority of the United States.

Absolutely.

So you're going to be firing a lot of people if you're firing people for comments like that.

The vast majority.

I mean,

I haven't seen the polls on that specific quote that she said, but generally speaking,

you're going to find that people,

while accepting

of those who believe they need to go through a transgendered operation or whatever, you're going to find people who say, well, look, that is a person who is a male that has gone through a surgery.

That is what's happened.

They are now identifying that way.

And we'll do what we can to help make them feel good and support them or whatever.

We're not going to be mean to someone who does this, of course.

However, most people understand that, look,

there is a situation that goes on when you're born.

You have certain parts, you have certain DNA, you have chromosomes.

They kind of tell the story.

Okay.

They kind of tell the story.

And so that is kind of what people will understand.

So she didn't even say anything bad.

She gets fired.

She comes out as trans, which is probably not the best way to handle it.

And now she's saying, okay, I'm sorry, I screwed up.

Like, we shouldn't.

hold people and have them be defined by their worst moment when they're 20 years old.

Yeah.

Right.

And like that is a very constant thing that we do these days.

You've seen this, you know, I'm sure.

over and over again.

It was at one of the recent NFL drafts they had this where one of the it was one of the quarterbacks I can't remember who it was

had

comments from social media about Josh Allen I think okay when they yeah when they're like a couple of bills 15 or 16 years old where they said stuff they shouldn't have said they did that with a couple of guys yeah and like you try to

oh well we're digging this up and we're gonna say here's the here's the thing that you said yeah and it's like well you can't

That's not the right thing, especially at that age.

I mean, not even an adult, at least this model here is 20 years old.

But, I mean, when you're 15, 16 years old, like basically you have immunity for doing dumb things.

That is, you know, with the exception of like massive harm, like I ran over a bunch of kindergartners.

You don't get immunity from that.

But when you're just saying something dumb, you just get immunity from it.

That's what it should be.

We should all say anything that you did in that era.

It's just, you just excuse it because you're learning the ropes.

You're understanding the world.

It takes time.

Which is a more interesting story.

If she would have really been trans and made the transition at a very early age?

Or is it more interesting that she claimed to be trans and then isn't?

I'm not sure which is the more fascinating story there.

At some point, we're going to get a story of like a, you know, someone transitions at five years old.

Yeah.

They turn into an adult, are pissed off about it.

They become essentially what is now known as transphobic.

And they will be attacked, and we will find out that they're actually trans.

And it's going to be a hell of a news cycle.

Yep.

It's going to be a really interesting one.

I find that to be fascinating, though, because I don't know.

I mean, I think that's really probably the only way she could have

gotten out of it.

She really would have been trans,

that would have, I think, smoothed it over eventually.

And if you yell at someone, if you attack someone and get a trans person fired, are you not the one transphobic?

I don't know.

These are all new rules, Pat.

Triple 8, 727, BECK.

U.S.

women's soccer team, just for your information,

did get paid more than the men.

Wait.

So the went through like two weeks of news cycles saying it didn't happen.

Now it did happen.

Yeah, now it did happen.

U.S.

soccer caved, and they did pay them.

They did pay them more.

Oh, okay.

Well, that's...

So they basically just caved to the pressure and gave them a bunch of cash.

Yes.

Now,

the thing is,

is it fair?

Should they get equal pay?

Here's the thing.

The women for the last 10 years

bring in an average of $425,000 per game.

Okay, so every soccer match brings in about $425,000.

The men bring in an average of $972 million.

I mean, thousand, $972,000.

More than double.

More than double.

Yeah.

So should they have been paid more than the men?

No.

If you consider prestige and what the U.S.

got out of the World Cup, I don't know.

No, it's a numbers game.

It's a revenue game.

It is.

That's fascinating.

I find it really interesting when they say equal pay for equal work.

Well, equal work would be playing the men's teams.

Right.

Playing a team that is inferior, which is, by the way, which every one of these teams is.

And I know that's hard to hear.

Well, the U.S.

women's soccer team was beaten by a 14-year-old team here in Dallas a couple of years ago.

14-year-old.

14-year-old kids.

Look, and that's beat the women's soccer team.

That doesn't mean you delete all women's sports.

No,

it's not that argument, but it is.

It's just a different deal.

It's a different deal.

You're comparing apples to oranges.

You can't do that.

And so it's not equal work, right?

Like,

going by some women's basketball player is not the same as going by Draymond Green.

It's not the same thing.

You know, posting up

against a 6-foot six center in the WNBA is not the same about posting up a 7-2 person in the NBA.

It's 7-2, 350.

Yeah, it's not

equal work.

It's not.

Getting tackled in the Lingerie Football League, not the same.

Are you sure about that one?

Because I think that one might be about the same.

It's about the same.

Because, I mean, I've seen some of the women in the Lingerie Football League, and they do look like linebackers.

It's just,

by the way, I want to take that back and i am trans i'm going to come out right now as trance

i am trans you are in the i transition to the young lingerie football i am on the lingerie football yeah yeah so just so you know the background

Trump, of course, being called a racist.

Now, for many things, what he said about Baltimore the other day, and now what he has said about Elijah Cummings.

Now, Elijah Cummings can say whatever he wants about Donald Trump, but if anything comes back to Elijah Cummings, why then that's racism?

We'll get into that and much more coming up in one minute.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

It's been amazing the last couple of days to

listen to the

firestorm over Baltimore, Maryland, and whether or not it's rat-infested, which it is,

whether or not it's crime-infested, which it definitely is,

whether or not it's run down in some parts of the city, city, which it absolutely is.

Glenn and I lived in Baltimore for about two years, and it was having some problems then.

They had just finished the inner harbor shortly before we got there.

And I can't remember if they spent one or two billion dollars on the inner harbor, but

they were trying really hard to redevelop and make Baltimore a nice place.

But

it is nice in some areas.

And in some areas, it really is nice.

Camden Yards is still legendary.

Yeah.

Camden Yards is great.

They've done some great things for their sports teams.

There are some nice, obviously there's rich areas of Baltimore, just like there is rich areas of every other major city in this country.

And that's been one of the tricks they've been doing.

Yeah.

They'll talk about all the rich areas.

Oh, Uberwat.

Donald Trump doesn't know that there's this nice suburb that's part of the district.

Well, I think you can probably guess that what he was talking about was not that particular part of the city.

and given, and Stelter did this, and we talked about it a little bit yesterday, he comes out and he's like, you know, look, he doesn't even know, I'm from Maryland, and look at this, you can't even, he doesn't even know that these parts are also parts of the districts, and he shows some of the nice areas.

Of course, there's going to be nice parts.

Right.

And so what you would say is, well, perhaps he watched a video.

Right.

Where he was shown the bad parts of Baltimore, and that's what he was referring to.

Now, you can excuse Brian Selter for not knowing that, except for the fact that immediately afterwards, he shows the exact video that Trump saw, which was highlighting the inner city and the bad parts.

So he absolutely knew what Trump was referring to, but there's this effort by the media to pretend as if they don't know what he means, so that therefore they can score a couple of extra points against him.

And it's just

mind-numbing.

To listen to him, it sounds like Baltimore is a mixture of Disney World with Universal Studios.

Right.

That's how wonderful Baltimore is.

Plus Sandals.

Yes.

And it plus the

beautiful, like the Bellagio.

It's partly like the Bellagio with the fountains.

And it's going to surprise people when they go to Baltimore and they find that there's no Bellagio there.

And there's not too many Disney World type rides.

And in some places, it's really not a lot of fun.

And some of the residents have actually gone out through their neighborhood recording what's going on in their neighborhood and showing you the blight in Baltimore where row houses have been abandoned and falling apart for decades.

And they're still there.

Trees have grown inside the building that are taller than the building.

This isn't something that happened yesterday.

It's been going on in Baltimore for a long time.

And it's a long time.

There are a lot of Democrat-run cities where you can find these areas, all of them.

Almost all of them.

I mean, remember when we were doing Patent Stew here on the Blaze,

we attempted to buy a home in Detroit for $3.

Right, that's right.

They had a home where you could actually, I was on sale for like three bucks.

And we attempted to buy it, though we realized afterwards that the taxes would be so high that maybe our budget wouldn't allow for it.

In fact, our budget didn't actually allow for $3 either, but it did allow for us to pay out of our own pocket the $3.

Wasn't willing to jump on the $10,000 a year taxes to own a home

in the middle of nowhere in Detroit.

But I mean, that's what they talk about.

They're talking about raising entire areas.

Just get rid of it.

Just get rid of it.

Knock it all down.

Make it a field.

That's a better outcome than what we have.

And it would be.

And it would be, except for God only knows what environmental things would be released when you knock those buildings down.

And there's all sorts of issues, which is why they just leave these things up.

And that's what's happened in Baltimore.

There are large areas.

The mayor of the city is walking around.

They had the video from 2018.

She's like, we should just knock all this stuff down.

It also happens to be the

city, the large city, with the highest homicide rate in the nation.

You can't argue that's just number one, though.

And it's just number two overall, even with small cities.

I think it's second only to the mean streets of Helena.

I don't think Helena has that.

Do you think so?

No, I don't think so.

But it is higher than Guatemala and Honduras.

The murder rate?

The murder rate in Baltimore.

Yeah, it's like 56 per 100,000.

Yeah.

That's incredibly high.

And listen to Democrats when they talk to to you about Guatemala and Honduras, and they will tell you that it's so bad people have to be allowed asylum coming across our border.

Yeah, can you imagine?

Yeah.

People going across the border of Baltimore to Washington, D.C.

for asylum.

Yeah.

I'm coming to Silver Spring, Maryland for asylum.

Yeah, maybe that's what we should open up that policy because that is what

this is what their argument is on the border.

Well, you have to let these people in.

They're victims of gang violence in places like Honduras, and they have to be allowed in.

Well, the murder rate is worse in this city you're defending than it is in those areas.

Amazing.

Amazing.

It's amazing.

And, you know, it's not like Donald Trump is the first politician to have noticed that something's amiss in Baltimore.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's happened before.

Yeah.

There was a politician back in 2015, I think.

Yeah.

I think his name is Barrick.

Barrick

Abama.

Is that what I think?

That's what it is.

Barrick Abama.

He was describing the woes of Baltimore as well.

Here's what he said.

And without making any excuses for criminal activities that take place in this community, what we also know is that if you have impoverished communities

that have been stripped away of opportunity,

where children are born into abject poverty,

they've got...

Parents often, because of substance abuse problems or incarceration, or lack of education, themselves can't do right by their kids.

If it's more likely that those kids end up in jail or dead than that they go to college.

In communities where there are no fathers

who

can provide guidance to young men.

How dare you?

Oh wow.

Communities where there's no investment.

Oh my gosh.

And manufacturing has been stripped away.

And drugs have flooded the community and the drug industry ends up being the primary employer for a whole lot of folks.

In those environments, if we think that we're just going to send the police to do the dirty work of containing the problems that arise there without, as a nation and as a society, saying, what can we do to change those communities?

to help lift up those communities and give those kids opportunity,

then we're not going to solve this problem.

And we'll go through the same cycles of periodic

conflicts between the police and

communities

and the occasional

riots in the streets.

And everybody will

feign concern until it goes away and then we go about our business as usual.

Wow.

Bernie Sanders also toured it during the last campaign in 2016.

And when he came out, he did a press conference about how Baltimore isn't like an American city.

It's like he was touring a third world nation.

Is that

not

racist to say?

How dare you say that about Baltimore, that beautiful, wonderful, utopian city.

And

when you add up the profile of the racism of Bernie Sanders, first of all, you have this comment, which is just clear blatant racism.

In fact, if you're a journalist, you can't say anything else.

You must say that he was a racist, and you know he was a racist because obviously he said these words, and that means anyone who says that is a racist.

But beyond that, here's a guy who has chosen to live in Vermont his whole life, one of the whitest states in America, and has over and over again told us he wants our country to be like Sweden, another white Norway,

Denmark,

white countries.

This man is blatantly a racist.

Racist.

Which, by the way, you, I think, are allowed to say about public figures now.

I know back in 2009,

it was a giant,

horrible thing that Glenn Beck did when he said the president might be racist.

That was terrible.

But now, it's completely okay.

Now it's almost encouraged to call the president a racist.

Not even almost.

You have to.

You have to.

I mean, listen, you know, we talked about the Brian Stelter clip earlier.

He says, first of all, absolutely racist.

But I mean, his job is to judge other journalists, right, and media companies and how they're covering it.

And he was beating up on companies that just say, well, his racially tinged comments, that's not enough.

You have to say they are racist.

He is a racist.

Unbelievable.

By the way, on that front, from back from 2009, Jonathan Cape Hart, do you know him?

I guess he's a

commentator.

He was on MSNBC in 2009, talking about Glenn.

He He said, how is it possible that this guy can sit on national television and call the president of the United States a racist?

Glenn Beck and people like that need to stop this because, you know, throwing the R word, the racist word, and some of these words are conversation stoppers.

We're never going to get past the point where the Glenn Becks of the world

will just hurl that out at people.

And I know there are blacks who do it and whites who do it, but when it's done, people, they go to their battle stations, they harden their positions, and they don't want to talk so you should never do that uh august 9th 2018 jonathan capehart column yes donald trump you are a racist

wow

there have been so many instances of trump's racism that i don't have time to look for them all

it's like there is there's not an ounce of credibility from from these people in the media and what they always turn to is he

said the president wasn't born here.

What race is a person who's born somewhere else?

Yeah.

I don't understand how that's automatically racist.

That's nonsense.

Just because if you were a birther, first of all, we hated that particular argument because

it was used to negate every other argument we had against Barack Obama.

And so it was just not helpful.

But it didn't make you a racist if you believed that the president,

his birth certificate was

whatever, not legitimate in Hawaii or whatever.

That doesn't make you a racist.

It's just, it's

neither does, no, I mean,

it makes you wrong on that particular story.

And we've talked about that a million times.

But when you go back and you look at the polling of that era, you find a healthy chunk of Democrats who believed that Barack Obama was not not born in the United States.

And why was that?

Because they were a racist?

And because the Hillary campaign was perpetuating the same thing, that he maybe wasn't born here.

I mean, didn't we get that from her in the first place?

Yeah.

I think that's where it all originated, was with Hillary.

She denies that, but it came from someone in the campaign.

I mean, it does.

There's not a question.

I mean,

there was a definitely that was the foundation of it.

It was a memo from the Hillary campaign where they were trying to strategize ways to beat Barack Obama in 2008 in the primary.

Right, and that was one of them.

And that was one of the things that was happening.

Maybe he wasn't born here.

Yeah, I mean, and you go back and look at, I mean, you go back and look at this, you find that there was not only,

if I remember right, there were more people outside of the Republican Party who believed Barack Obama was born in Kenya than there was inside the Republican Party.

Oh, right.

Because, you know,

including independents, it wasn't all Democrats, but there was a significant amount of people who believed that.

And look, that wasn't.

I'm sure some people who believed that were also racists.

There probably was a nice crossover there.

But

it was not exclusively that way.

I mean, it was not correct.

But I think it's, let's, here we go.

I'm pulling up these old numbers.

38% of birthers were Republicans.

Again, this is according to an ABC poll.

38% of birthers were Republicans.

Meaning Meaning 62% were not.

Right.

And if I'm a Republican in this era, I'm repeating that non-stop, and they never really bothered with it.

But it was one of those things where...

They never really bother with any defense of the party.

Yeah.

Which I.

15% of Democrats, though, were birthers.

15%.

It was 30% of Republicans.

But, you know, there were more Democrats and independents in the poll than there was Republicans.

And this was pretty consistent throughout the polling of that era, where people believed, like, look, and it's not even necessarily a negative, right?

Like, it's not, now, there was a negative because it was tied to the presidency, but there's no negative in someone being born in another place.

It's just the circumstances of your birth.

Yeah.

That doesn't mean anything.

It wasn't, it's not a negative criticism, and it's certainly not necessarily a racist criticism.

You know, does a Swede,

if a president came, you know, if there's some guy from Sweden who came over over here, some the guy who started IKEA came over here and ran for president, you could still be critical of him and not based on race.

Yes.

Again, you know, and Democrats were critical of John McCain for being born in

Panama.

And some tried to say, well, he wasn't born here.

He can't run for president.

You remember that?

I mean, that wasn't that long ago.

That was 2008.

Here's the,

we have one here.

One more second before we leave.

This is a memo, 2007, memo to Clinton from Mark Penn, one of his advisors, said, all these articles about his boyhood, meaning Obama's, boyhood in Indonesia and his life in Hawaii are geared towards showing his background is diverse, multicultural, and putting it in a new light.

Save it for 2050.

It also exposes a very strong weakness for him.

His roots to basic American values and culture are at best limited.

I cannot imagine America electing a president during a time of war who is not at his center, fundamentally American, and thinking in his values.

Every speech

should contain the line that you, Hillary, were born in the middle of America to the middle class in the middle of the last century, and talk about the basic bargain about the deeply American values you grew up with, learned as a child, that drive you today.

Let's explicitly own American in our programs, the speeches and values.

He doesn't.

Let's add flag symbols to the backgrounds of campaign events, etc.

We are never going to say anything about his background, but

do what he outlined there.

That was really the Democratic Roots of the, and that is, by the way, all quoting from a memo in the Clinton campaign and an article from Bloomberg, not some right-wing source.

And the title of the article is The Democratic Roots of the Birther Movement.

So you can criticize all you want.

And, you know, we did.

The birther movement did not have a factual basis.

It had a basis in the Democratic Party, though.

Yeah.

Yeah, absolutely.

Patton Stewart for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

The Miss Michigan, who was stripped of her crown because of controversial tweets,

is claiming now that it, and I believe this, it's harder to publicly admit you're conservative than it is to come out as gay.

She's 20 years old.

Her name's Kathy Zhu.

She was the vice president of College Republicans at the University of Michigan.

She kind of doubled down at a state GOP event on some remarks that led to her losing her crown.

So she won Miss Michigan, but she was stripped of that crown

when she said some things on Twitter.

And what she said was, Oh, no, get ready for this.

Oh, no, don't do it.

Is this something you really want to say?

I want to make sure that you know this is a quote coming from her.

I, Pat Gray, am not saying okay, good, good.

Quote: Did you know the majority of black deaths are caused by other blacks?

She tweeted.

Fix problems within your own community before blaming others, unquote.

Oh, my gosh.

Did she quote FBI crime statistics?

Yes.

Yes, she did.

Oh, my gosh.

And you can't quote FBI because there's no more racist bureau than the Federal Bureau of Investigation, right?

Yeah.

I mean, I believe Jeffy actually talked to her on his podcast.

Oh, did he?

I think he did, yeah.

And

again, like,

we live in this weird world where all we're told is how we have to be more expressive.

We have to express ourselves.

Yet, as soon as you express yourself and it's the slightest bit of

hard beaten down hard.

Really hard.

Yeah, if you express something they don't want you to express, then it's kind of a major problem.

888 727 Beck is the number.

It's Pat and Stew in for Glenn.

CNN had Aaron Burnett on, and apparently this has been occurring for some time.

She's had a show for multiple years on CNN.

Aaron Burnett?

Yeah, Aaron Burnett.

She still has a show that's broadcast on television?

Yeah, it's stunning.

That's amazing.

I was amazed by it completely.

I heard there was a search party looking for her because no one had seen her in years.

And then it turns up she's on, well, no wonder we've got search parties.

She's on CNN where nobody knows.

Right.

She's there.

Yeah.

Okay.

It's amazing.

It's amazing that this happens.

So she decides,

there's always this thing that goes on in which, first of all, you start out and they say Donald Trump is racist because he talked about Baltimore.

Then people say, well, wait a minute, he talked about a city and that makes him racist?

Like, can you be a little more specific?

You know, yesterday I asked, can you at least try to explain

why this was a racist comment?

Not just assume it because you already think Trump is a racist, which, you know, look, look, you can believe that all you want.

Yeah.

But what's happened is they believe he's a racist.

So therefore, when he says something about,

I guess, a city where some black people live, that means that he's saying it with a racist motivation.

Well, Stu, if you use the word infested, you know what that means.

That is

their fallback position now.

Because once they're talking about rats, which it is infested.

Infested with rats.

Like literally.

I know you think Trump is saying some like coded language.

He's meaning literally infested by rats, which is in the segment, by the way, which was produced by a black woman that he was watching on Fox News.

It inspired the tweets.

Also, I think Glenn and I have talked about when we first went to Baltimore and we worked for a station there, B104 in Baltimore, legendary station.

We had to go down and get promotional photos taken.

And so we went down near the inner harbor, and there was an alleyway that we went down and posted all over every post, every poll, everything all over the alley.

Rat infestation, warning, caution, rat infestation.

And by the way, it was kind of obvious by the squished rats all over the street because cars had run over them.

That's how prevalent they are.

They cross the street more than squirrels do in Baltimore because they outnumber people 10 to 1.

But just the 10 to 1.

Just 10 to 1.

So this has been their fallback.

Okay, so now you say he's racist.

We don't have evidence of it.

Now

conservatives go and they find dozens of other officials that are black, that are Democrats, that are all over across the spectrum saying the same thing about Baltimore, how bad it is, the rat infestation.

So then

they have to fall back to the next line, which is, well, sure, other people have said things that are bad about Baltimore, but when Donald Trump uses the word infestation, that's when he's saying he's racist.

So here is Aaron Burnett's attempt at this blog comment turned into a television monologue.

Listen.

And infest is a word the president often uses when it comes to black and brown people.

Just the other day, telling four minority American congresswomen to go back to the crime-infested countries they came from.

Infest has become sort of a trope for Trump.

Here's a couple of his past tweets.

This one, Democrats don't care about crime and want illegal immigrants, no matter how bad they may be, to pour into and infest our country.

And of civil rights icon John Lewis, Congressman Lewis should finally focus on the burning and crime-infested inner cities of the United States.

Oh, wow.

Infest is a loaded word throughout history.

Oh, it is.

And when people defending Trump say, well, literally there are rats in Baltimore,

that shows a painful willingness.

to look the other way.

Oh,

okay, so we're racists too, all of a sudden.

If you get get to the bottom of what he was actually saying and not try to extrapolate something sinister.

And

I will say, every time he uses the word infest,

there are black people in America.

Really?

Every time he's using the US.

Oh, no, yes.

There have been black people in America.

Every time he's used infest.

In fact, every time he's tweeted the word infest, there have been black people on Twitter.

Oh, wow.

So, I mean,

that's pretty devastating.

By the way, she does not mention when he said that New Hampshire was a drug-infested den.

Now, New Hampshire.

Predominantly black, like 98%, 99%?

Not quite.

It's 93.9% white.

Okay.

But that was a drug-infested den.

93.9%.

And by the way, another true statement because it is.

New Hampshire has the biggest problem with heroin, right, in the nation per capita, I believe.

You may be right on that.

I know they've had massive problems with it.

It's very high there.

Yeah, opioids and such.

And you know, look, you can look through this.

This happens

over and over and over again.

You know, you go through the New York Times has maintained this list.

598 people and organizations that Trump has insulted.

You can go through any letter.

Pick a letter here, Pat.

A.

A.

Okay, here we go.

Let's see.

All black people, I assume.

Let's see.

Stacey Abrams, black.

Black.

Black.

Okay.

So that was a racist attack when he called her

crime-loving and weak on bets.

She didn't realize she loved crime.

She loved crime.

She apparently does.

Well, it's racism.

Okay.

Jim Acosta, black.

Right?

No.

He's actually a white person.

Yeah.

Okay, well, he was crazy.

Jim Acosta's crazy.

Well, see, he didn't say he was infested.

No.

Did he?

When he said General John R.

Allen had failed badly and his record equals bad,

we can all assume that John Allen is, of course, black.

But no, he's white.

Let's see.

Justin Amash,

who's a loser who sadly plays right into our opponent's hands.

And by the way, a white guy.

Yeah, I don't know if you noticed this about Justin Amash.

He is white.

Well, I know who isn't white.

Anderson Cooper.

Well, yes, he is.

Actually, he is.

Yeah.

Are you sure about that one?

I'm positive.

Well, I can tell you this.

Michael Avenatti's not white.

Black guy.

And that's why when he called Michael Avenatti a third-rate lawyer who is good at making false accusations, he's looking for attention and a total low life.

Look at that.

That's just A's.

This is A's.

All but one, white.

Let's keep going, just for fun.

B's, Jerry Brown, not looking for safety and security.

White.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, an incompetent judge.

She should resign.

Yeah, but that's old person discrimination right there.

Matt Bayh, I don't know.

He's a dummy, though.

I don't know.

He's a dummy.

Yeah.

Alec Baldwin.

He has a dying, mediocre career.

True.

He

argue with that.

Hollywood.

Yeah, that's just fact.

Argue with that.

No one's pushed back on that.

That's science.

My friends.

His impersonation just can't get any worse.

Tammy Baldwin, U.S.

Senator,

white.

Someone who has done very little.

LeVar Ball.

Oh, black.

Racism.

There you go.

Okay, that's racism.

He criticized LeVar Ball.

Yes, and here's the problem with this one, though.

His criticism was he's just a poor man's version of Don King without the hair.

Now,

the problem there is he seems to be praising Don King, who is also black.

So I'm not sure how we get to racism on that one.

We could try.

Steve Bannon, sloppy Steve.

White.

Cried when he got fired, begged for his job.

Like a dog in his office?

Yeah.

He's been dumped like a dog by almost everyone.

I love it.

He did use the like a dog.

That's great.

Oh, gosh.

Things went sour between him and Bannon pretty seriously, didn't they?

Sure did.

I have Elizabeth Beck, who's a lawyer.

Not sure about

who she is, but I do know who the next person is.

Oh, I know.

Glenn Beck is.

She goes through the names like Donald Trump called Glenn Beck.

This will be fun.

Yeah, this will be fun.

And Glenn, of course, as everybody knows, very, very black.

Yes, and it was racist.

Glenn's 80% black.

The only part not black, his skin, which is sad for him because no one knows, right?

But he does identify internal.

He's got all the fun out of being a minority.

It does.

When nobody knows.

So.

Okay.

Let's see.

His endorsement means nothing.

That Glenn would surely agree with you on.

He would.

That's science.

He's dumb as a rock.

I mean,

I got to go.

I'm siding with Trump on that one.

He's two for two in my book.

Failing.

I mean, I don't think he's failing at this point.

He's lost all credibility.

Also, I don't think the president would say he's failing at this point.

No, I don't think so either.

Irrelevant.

A wacko.

Sad.

He is pretty sad.

I will say that.

He's a sad person.

He's the saddest successful person I've ever met.

I've ever met in my entire life.

Yes.

Failing, crying, and a lost soul.

Wow.

Very dumb and failing.

Has zero credibility.

Irrelevant.

A mental basket case.

We're all on board on that one, I think.

We can say for sure.

Viewers and ratings are way down.

Irrelevant, wacky, a real nut job, and always seems to be crying.

That's amazing.

I missed some of those quotes when they came out.

It's been a while.

They're all very old at this point.

And look, you know,

they agree on more than they did.

I'll say that.

That's for sure.

But it's an interesting thing to look back at this.

And what is the point there?

When's the last time Donald Trump insulted Glenn Beck?

You know, what, 2017, probably?

16 or 17.

And here's the thing is, like, Glenn has seen a lot of the things that Trump has done and liked some of them.

Not all of them.

He's been at times critical of Trump, but has come on board on some of the policies that he's done.

We've all been pleasantly surprised at the job he's done.

And that's what tells the story here, right?

All of these people

were all saying bad things about Donald Trump at the time he was

insulting them, right?

When you're critical of him, he's critical of you.

And that is,

you can say you don't like that, and you can say you don't like the attitude.

Well, it's part of why he got elected.

Yeah.

Because people are tired of a guy who just takes it all the time.

And you can't say that about Donald Trump.

He doesn't take it.

No, and that's it.

He pushes it back to you.

So you could say you like it or you don't like it.

That's a fine thing.

But what it does do is exonerate him from your idea that it's racist.

Yes.

Because he's saying it about anyone who says something bad about them.

No matter what the person looks like, he will come back and say things like this.

This is what he does.

It is foundational to his character and

his personality.

He just is going to go after you to the point, Pat, that he actually will reverse on you when you're saying nice things about him, as evidenced by no lesser example than Kim Jong-un.

He's saying Kim Jong-un is a good guy and a friend right now because he's in the middle of a negotiation and trying to say, trying to get Kim Jong-un to do the things that he wants.

So he's saying, and Kim Jong-un is saying nice things about him.

He's saying nice things about Kim Jong-un.

When they were at each other's throats, the opposite was true, right?

This is just the way he operates in public.

And this is why I've made the case, you know, many times that you can't get a sense of Donald Trump's presidency by looking at the things that he tweets or listening to the things he says, even.

He tells you, he told you in his writings, go back to the art of the deal.

The things you're saying in public are largely for positioning.

He's positioning himself, either it's for a negotiation or an appearance in front of the press.

You can't go in there and say, oh, well, he's saying this, therefore we should judge his presidency by that.

You should judge his presidency by his actions.

Fox News is Greg Gutfeld had a great tweet the other day.

Did you see this?

When he said,

Trump's about to execute a white supremacist,

because he's bringing about the federal death penalty just in time for this white supremacist to be executed.

While

trying to free a black rapper from jail,

as he pushes prison reform that directly benefits families of black men, while calling out a city where minorities are victims of crime and blight.

If Trump's a racist, he really sucks at it.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

Would you like to hear a little more racism coming out about Baltimore?

I don't know if I can take any more.

This doesn't happen to be from a politico, but I'm sure that this is rubbed off on people like Donald Trump today.

Has Donald Trump seen the play hairspray?

Probably.

Probably.

Good morning, Baltimore.

Do you remember the song in Hairspray?

The official movie clip?

Do we have the clip?

Here's some of the lyrics.

Now listen to this.

Listen to this.

The rats

on the street, I'll dance round her feet.

Wow.

Good morning, Bob.

There's the flasher who lives at the door.

There's the bum on his barroom stool.

They wish me luck on my way to school.

Good morning, bummer.

How dare they say these things about Baltimore?

So there's flashers that are are talking to school children.

Yeah.

A bum on his barroom stool.

There's rats on the street dancing around her feet.

What kind of racist lyrics are those?

Yeah.

The only explanation could be racism.

If they use the word infest in this song, then we really know.

Well, it's a dog whistle.

It is a dog whistle, which is kind of strange because if it was a dog whistle, then nobody would hear it, and you wouldn't know it was a racist comment.

Nobody can hear, humans cannot hear dog whistles.

So, if it's a dog whistle comment, that means the people you intended to hear it didn't.

No, unless you wanted dogs to hear it.

No, no, no, dogs are pissed because they know that you just made a racist comment, yeah, but not the people.

It is bizarre.

I mean, you have to at least come up with some sort of justification as to why you think it's racist.

I mean, really, what they're saying is.

They really don't anymore.

There are some black people who live in Baltimore, and he said something bad about Baltimore.

That is like legitimately their argument.

Them racist, does it not?

It's ridiculous.

He didn't say the black people brought in the mice.

That was not his argument.

He was saying that people don't want to live in an area where that is infested by rats.

So crazy.

Legit.

That is like true.

Everyone knows that to be true.

You know, it's not something that's controversial or wasn't until he talked about it.

And that is what is screwed up about the media right now.

They're letting him make every decision for them.

The fusion of of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenbeck program.

With Patton Stew for Glenn this week,

AAA-727-B-E-C-K.

Big debate tonight.

We are going to watch this so that you don't have to and have plenty of highlights tomorrow.

But the two biggies in this are Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.

The two that are supposedly kind of the moderate guys that might be trying to bring the party back back a little bit closer to the center than as extreme to the...

They're so far left.

They've actually left the planet by this point.

But John Hickenlooper and John Delaney are the two guys who are considered to be moderates that are going to try to moderate the party ever so slightly.

There's others that are trying to go down that road.

Tonight you'll have Hickenlooper.

Delaney, Bullock,

trying to do this.

Supposedly, yeah.

And Tim Ryan and Amy Klobuchar are trying to to live in that world, too.

At some level, Buttigieg is trying to do it, although all of his policies seem like, ah, we're going to have 47 Supreme Court justices.

That's

it, doesn't seem like a moderate policy program.

He also supports a Medicare for all, doesn't he?

The socialized medicine?

I mean, all of them, I think, at some level.

Free college.

And that's what's, I think that's the incredible thing about this field, Pat.

Is that even the moderates are not even close to moderate.

Let me give you an example of this.

John Delaney has been running for president since 1911.

He announced in 1911 that he was going to run for the 2020 presidential nomination.

He legitimately, in all seriousness, announced in 2017.

So he was the first Democrat that announced.

Was he really?

Yeah, and he's been running around Iowa without anyone noticing all the way past the 2018 election, like all the way through.

Because he wanted to, I guess, get out in front.

Okay.

Which he did.

Not in the polls, but he did get out in front of announcing.

Yes.

And so it's done basically nothing for him.

I think his theory was, I'll announce first.

I'll run around Iowa and do all the retail campaigning type of stuff.

Go to every district, meet shake hands of voters.

And by the time the other candidates come to the table, I'll be doing really well in Iowa because I'll be the only one who's been there.

Yeah.

He is an independently wealthy guy, a businessman.

Yeah, he's funding his own campaign so far at least.

Yep.

Like last

quarter, he raised, I think, about $8 million,

about $250,000 from actual donors.

And the rest of the city was $7.7 million from himself.

So this is what his plan is.

And so far, it's worked out really well.

He's at 0%.

But it's got him all the way to zero.

Yeah, and sometimes, well, he has, you know, if you're in your car right now and you're driving to work, driving to the grocery store, and you think, I'm tied with John Delaney for the Democratic National nomination.

That's a really good point.

It's a good way of

raising your damage.

I've spent $0 on this campaign.

You haven't set your entire personal fortune on fire, and you're at 0% too.

I'm thinking you're doing just slightly better than John Delaney.

And Delaney will occasionally hit 1% or 2% in Iowa.

So he does show up.

He may be able to actually make the next round of debates.

It's not impossible, although it's unlikely.

Because he doesn't have the donors.

He has to buy the donors.

You know, Eric Swalwell, who dropped out of

the races, was the first person who really kind of dropped out since this whole thing started.

He said at one point he was trying to get enough donors to make it into the debate, and he had to spend like, you have to spend like $10,000 to get like 5,000 donors

because you're spending to get advertising for people to just give you $1

to get to this donor number, which is, of course, ridiculous.

So Delaney, though, is supposed to be the moderate.

He's the guy that comes out and says, you know what?

I don't like socialism.

I'm going to be honest about it.

You know what?

Medicare for all is bad policy.

It's not going to work.

If you were to pick one of these people off of the stage, a lot of people would pick Delaney because, you know, if you're a conservative, because you're thinking, at least this guy's just, just liberal.

He's not crazy in the socialist world.

Right.

So let me give you a little window into what a moderate in the democratic field looks like.

Okay.

Just yesterday or the day before, John Delaney released, and I'm sure this is all over.

cable news and all over the front page of your paper.

I'm sure everyone noticed this,

you know, other than me, but I'll just bore you with the details anyway.

John Delaney's plan for national service.

Okay.

So like national service in the Army?

Well, let me let him explain.

Okay.

To help bring people from different backgrounds together, Delaney is proposing a mandatory national service program to provide opportunities.

It's opportunities for young people to give back to their country and to meet and work with people from all backgrounds.

How wonderful.

Now look, Pat,

if you decided I want to give back to my community, you wouldn't have the opportunity to do that.

With this, you would.

Fortunately, thanks to the government.

Yeah.

Then I because right now you couldn't give back.

You would have no opportunity to do that.

There is no way to do it.

This will create opportunities to do that.

And the other thing, Pat, is if let's just say you wanted to work with a Croatian,

a Native American,

someone from Mongolia, and someone from Costa Rica.

Okay.

Right now, there'd be no way of doing that.

You can't find those people.

They don't exist.

There's no Mongolians in America?

No Mongolians.

Oh, man.

Now, luckily for you.

I'm glad they left their beef behind though, because I like it.

Yeah, they did.

They did.

They flew in, dropped off the beef, and then left.

That's what happened.

At a lot of different locations,

which is really great on that.

All over America.

I love that they did that.

So, this will give you the opportunity to give back to the country and work with people from all backgrounds.

Now, this is all, look, he's a moderate.

He's not going to push this too far.

And that's important for you to know.

He's not going to go too far on this.

Okay.

Part number one, every American will complete a minimum of one year and a maximum of two years of mandatory national service when they graduate high school or turn 18.

So that's just step one.

So you leave high school.

You can't go to college.

You can't go to work.

You can't go to college.

You go immediately into service to the country.

Yes.

Either military or some other type?

Well, we'll get into what kinds there are here in a moment.

But the national service requirement will apply to individuals born after 2006, but will phase in over time.

Okay.

So you're not like, Pat, you wouldn't have to do that.

I wouldn't have to.

No, I know you'd want to do it.

I know you'd want to do it.

There's just no way for me to do it.

No, no, I can get you right now.

I can get you.

Oh, you can?

Yeah, I got connections.

Oh.

So to meet the national and service requirement, participants can choose from one of four options.

So again, pro-choice.

You get to choose.

Number one, you can serve in our nation's military.

Okay.

Number two, you can serve in a new expanded community service program.

Number three, you can serve in a new national infrastructure apprenticeship program.

That sounds really good.

Okay.

Yeah, so I can learn how to build bridges and fix roadways.

Now, we've so far created two massive organizations.

I don't know if you've noticed that.

I did.

And we've required people, everyone over 18, to do two years of service to the government or one year, but a maximum of two years.

Okay.

So it could be two, but it won't go over two until they expand it later on.

And finally, Pat, you and only you, because I know you're going to be excited about this one, you can serve in the newly created Climate Corps.

Oh, the Climate Corps.

That's that's that has Pat Gray written all over it.

All over it.

So community service would operate similar to the AmeriCorps or the Peace Corps.

All right.

You can work on projects such as mentoring,

literacy tutoring for disadvantaged students,

awareness programs for public health campaigns,

outreach activities for social service programs, and structured after-school care programs.

That's how you can spend your year of service.

That's mandatory and required now by the government.

Or you could go to the infrastructure apprenticeship.

You could enter so the government would enter into public-private partnerships with private companies and trade unions to offer infrastructure apprenticeships.

Private companies would be awarded contracts to undertake projects such as improving public parks or renovating federal buildings to make them environmentally green.

So you could like, when you're 18, you get out of high school,

you just go serve the government in a mandatory sense by making buildings green.

And I don't think it's like paint, I don't think it's painting them green.

I think it's like environmental stuff.

Yeah.

You can have a trade union.

It will be utilized as the programs can leverage successful apprenticeship models used by trade unions, or

you can get a professional certificate proving mastery of a particular skill set.

Okay.

Now, so far, you're pretty excited about this, I think.

Psyched.

And, you know, this is funny because this is a guy who's in a do-or-die situation.

This is what he's released.

This is why the campaign's not working.

But the climate core, I think, is going to be fun for you.

I know that's what you were talking about.

To fight climate change, participants would assist in clean energy projects, including solar installation.

So you get out of high school, you start installing solar panels.

Okay.

Okay.

All right.

You just go right in for free.

Now, oh, I'm not paid for this.

You're not going to.

Okay.

By the way, I'm going to say mandatory service.

Maybe you will get paid.

I don't know.

Well, maybe that's.

Because I got to make a living somehow.

You got benefits coming up.

Oh, that's good.

That's next coming up.

You can improve building efficiency.

Yeah.

I mean, I know you do that.

I feel strongly about that.

Yeah, I do that a lot right now.

Developing community gardens.

Now, I know you've put in.

One of the biggest gardeners you've ever met.

And you can increase awareness.

Both my thumbs are green, not just one.

Oh, wow.

Yeah.

That's impressive.

Both of them.

You can also increase awareness about sustainable practices.

So if, like, let's say you get out of high school at 18, you go to a street corner and just start yelling, sustainable practices!

Practice more sustainably.

Hey, you!

Why is your practice not as sustainable as I would prefer?

Please make it more sustainable.

Thank you.

And you just do that for a year.

That would be awesome.

It works well.

That would be great.

You can provide information and support to families about sustainability.

Okay.

So you can yell at individuals or families.

Or families.

You will be stationed.

And this is a

station.

I can't do it where I live.

No.

Okay.

So they're going to move me somewhere.

You'll be stationed in rural and low-income areas to assist communities transition to a green economy and invest in environmentally friendly projects.

And again, this is moderate John Delaney's life.

Yes.

Mandatory service for one to two years.

Now, the benefits, Pat.

This is where we are.

Here we go.

Are you ready?

Program will.

The program will be paid.

Now, again, so think of the government, what's happening here.

We've now created three new government programs that will pay everyone who's 18 years old for service that they must do.

Wow.

The amount

will vary on cost of living and whether housing is provided through the program.

So we may be providing housing for this.

Okay.

We should get through the rest of this in about 60 seconds.

Okay.

Okay.

Take a break and then we'll be right back with the rest of what you can do because

people are going to want to sign up.

They're going to want to sign up now.

Yeah.

Okay.

More coming up.

This is the Glen Beck program.

Thinking about life insurance?

What if you could make one free phone call and learn your best price from nearly a dozen highly rated price-competitive companies?

Well, that's exactly what happens when you call SelectQuote Life.

For example, George is 40.

He was getting sky-high quotes from other companies because he takes meds to control his blood pressure.

But when I shopped around, I found him a 10-year, $500,000 policy for under $25 a month.

I'm SelectQuote agent Dan Savino.

And believe me, if SelectQuote isn't shopping for your life insurance, you're probably paying too

For your free quote, call 800-637-9116.

That's 800-637-9116.

800-637-9116.

Or go to selectquote.com.

Since 1985, we shop, you save.

Get full details on the example policy at selectquote.com/slash commercials.

Your price could vary depending on your health issuing company and other factors, not available in all states.

It's Pat and Stu for Glenn.

Now, Glenn has Stu has promised that the best of this John Delaney plan is still to come.

Oh, I think so.

Hopefully, he'll outline this tonight because I don't think he got around to that last debate.

No.

But this is important stuff.

There's mandatory service as soon as you leave high school for at least one year, maybe two.

Yep.

And you can serve in the climate corps if you want, which will help you.

You'll just get out of high school, install some solar panels, or yell at people about sustainability.

Talk about making a difference.

Yes.

Now, you will get, potentially, you'll make it housing from this and a salary.

Wait, they're going to put me up in a free place?

Yes.

Oh, wow.

In some, like when you're traveling to the rural area, that you have to install solar panels.

They will give you housing for that.

Okay.

If you do one year of service, you will result in two years of free in-state tuition

at a public university, community college, or technical school.

Two years of service will result in three years of free in-state tuition.

Now, again, how much is this?

Again, we're paying for free college, essentially, but you have to do something for the free college.

Again, that's the moderate, right?

Like Bernie Sanders gives it to you for free.

John Delaney says you have to mandatory service.

Now, whether you want to go to college or not, you still got to do the service, but they're going to force you into government service and you will learn skills to build future jobs.

And then

this is all part of his larger climate plan.

Now, the larger climate plan is a bargain, because that's how I'm going to describe it right away.

There's a climate crisis going on, as you know.

We have to act on the climate, and we have to act now.

Well, if I may be so bold, Stu, we can't afford not to.

Oh, my gosh, that's a brilliant thing to say.

And you're going to continue to say it after I tell you the cost.

$4 trillion.

Well, we can't afford not to.

What will it cost us if we don't?

$5 trillion, maybe?

The planet.

Okay, okay.

We'll die.

I would assume it's more than $4 trillion.

I hope.

Yes.

Now, $4 trillion.

This includes a new...

$4 trillion.

And remember, let's take the $4 trillion

for what it is, which is his estimate of the cost.

Not a real estimate of the cost, but his estimate.

Probably figured double or triple.

Right.

Exactly.

A new carbon tax or fee.

Okay, it could be a tax or a fee.

Again, pro-choice.

Tax or a fee.

I could pay either one.

This, again, is the moderate in the field.

$15 per metric ton of CO2.

He will reduce carbon emissions by 90% by 2050.

All right.

And now, look, you might say, well, that doesn't sound all that moderate.

However,

Jay Inslee, Michael Bennett, Betto O'Rourke

all have their own climate proposals.

Betto O'Rourke is $5 trillion.

So he's saved a trillion dollars.

Wow.

So he's.

Which is pretty impressive.

He is the moderate.

Yeah.

He's only going to charge you $4 trillion

for his climate plan and make you go to service to the government for a year or two.

And this is the moderate in the field.

It's almost like what Israel does.

You have to have, you know, you're mandatory military when you get out of high school there.

When you're 18, I think from 18 to 20, you serve in the military, period.

So that's essentially what we'd be doing here in the United States.

Except you wouldn't have any skills.

Right.

You'd just be like, I can theoretically raise awareness about sustainability.

And it doesn't have to be something super worthwhile like the military.

It could be the climate,

what do they call it?

The climate corps?

The climate corps.

Are you saying the climate corps is not worth it?

Totally worthless.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

Completely, completely worthless.

But only in every way.

Yes, only in every way.

And that's important.

In every single way.

For people to understand.

It will do nothing and accomplish nothing, but it will cost $4 trillion.

That's good.

Good luck, America.

Now, how much do you want to vote for John Delaney?

Wow.

I know.

And again, you might actually, if you had to pick, you may actually pick John Delaney.

That's how bad this field is.

It's, it's, it, the, the, the Democratic Party has moved so far, so fast.

Every single candidate in this field supports some version of Medicare for All, with the potential

exception of Joe Biden, who is just saying massively expand Obamacare.

And really,

there's not much difference there.

He just doesn't want to destroy the brand name of Obamacare.

He's the only one who cares about that at this point, which is another fascinating part of this.

But Bernie Sanders in 2013, six years ago, introduced Medicare for All and got zero co-sponsors.

Zero.

No one in the Democratic Party would admit to agreeing to it.

No one would say, hey, you know what?

Yeah, I like that plan.

No one.

Staggering.

And now every candidate supports some version of it.

Every one of them.

It's kind of hard to believe that that's possible.

It's...

It's almost impossible to believe.

Yeah.

I mean, with, you know, with Democrats like this, you don't need socialists or communists because

the Democrat Party has essentially become the party of Marxism.

It just is.

At least as far as their candidates go.

And I think, you know, people like certainly Delaney, but also people like Biden are trying to hope that in reality

the rank and file is not like this.

And, you know, Rahm Emmanuel.

Again, is Rahm Emmanuel a conservative?

Nope.

No.

Rahm Emmanuel is now calling out his party for going too far to the left and saying, hey, you're not going to win any of these voters if you start embracing things like free health care for illegal immigrants, which I think polls at 26% support nationwide.

Wow.

26%.

Getting rid of private insurance, which I think polls like at 27%.

Universal basic income, which is like 26%.

These are all terrible.

It's hard to believe it's that high, even.

It's hard to believe it's even that high.

26%?

That's way too high yeah it should be 0 percent ah these things should all be 0

almost nothing is 0 percent or 100 but you would think six or seven right six or seven percent of the people are like i don't know

okay yeah let's have that yeah and look free money people like it yes it's just not free money as we all know and would not work in any way uh wow but it is a it's staggering these are these are things honestly that are not even supported by a majority of democrats in many in many ways.

It's why if one of these guys are supporting them if one of these guys or women are elected,

I think we're just in real trouble.

It just can't happen.

We can't, as voters, allow it to happen.

Speaking of,

I don't know.

I think Jeffy's coming up next, isn't he?

Yeah, I think we canceled that.

We tried.

We tried.

Can we get him into mandatory service to go anywhere else?

Well, he's transsexual.

I don't know if you're aware of that.

Oh, he came out as trans?

He's trans?

We'll probably have to.

No, no, he's not transsexual.

No, he's not.

not.

Health concerns are a sad part of life.

I mean, it seems like there's always something that either hurts or bothers us health-wise, right?

Want more, Glenn?

I mean, who doesn't?

Beside my wife.

Stream live or download later at Glenbeck.com.

It's Pat and Stew for Glenn

on the Glenn Beck program.

You can check out my show immediately preceding the Glenn Beck program.

It's Pat Gray Unleashed every morning.

It is, I'm trying to think Eastern time.

Seven to nine Eastern, six to eight Central, and so on and so forth.

But right now, we're also joined by

Jeff Fisher to chew the fat a little bit.

He's got his own podcast that you can download at your leisure.

Every day, Monday through Friday.

Even sometimes, I throw in a Saturday American Dream special.

No, you don't.

That's too good to be true.

I know.

You mean you can get six days of Jeffy Fisher?

I know.

And sometimes on Monday, you even get two podcasts.

Stop it.

Okay, so, I mean, you're welcome because we do the talking series.

I know.

Wow.

And listen, you guys,

you inspired me today.

Did we?

I didn't wake up today thinking that

I'm going to do this, but you guys have inspired me.

I'm trans.

Oh, my God.

You are.

You were born as a woman, like a biological woman?

I just want to come out and say that I'm

part of the movement.

Okay.

No, I'm not.

I wasn't really.

But I just wanted to come out.

Oh, wow.

Just wanted to come out and see if I could be part of the movement.

Okay, well, that didn't last too long.

Okay.

Glad you were able to get that one in the chest, though, because it's probably been weighing down.

It has.

It has.

I feel so much better.

Just like a beauty queen, what's her face?

Wasn't a beauty queen or wasn't it?

Yeah, she's a model.

Yeah, she's a model.

That's what it is.

This is a story we had in Hour One today.

Her story was she is a model, said some things that were negative about

considered transphobic by some.

So she got fired.

She got fired.

The next day she decided to come out as trans.

She's like, the reason I was saying this is because I was hearing myself.

I was actually trans.

And then the next day.

The next day came out.

And by the way, I'm not trans.

I shouldn't have done that.

Now, see,

I see, I'm trans and I was insecure about being trans.

That only works if you really are.

Yeah, yeah.

She should have stuck with it.

Yeah.

You got to continue with it.

You got to continue with it.

Honestly, like, how would they even question it?

I guess they couldn't.

Because they couldn't if they, if she identifies that way, right?

Well, some people did go back and look at, like, I guess, photos of her as a kid, and she seemed very much like a girl.

However, how dare you?

Right.

Right.

Like,

yeah.

Who are you?

You bastard.

I mean, maybe she was born as a

biological girl and was dressed that way by her bastard parents.

Right.

But in reality, she identified that whole time as a man.

And they didn't have the openness or

the tolerance

to allow her to make that transition at such an age

because they're too hung up on their own, you know, male-female gender, transphobic ideas of the past.

So bad.

Maybe she broke free of all that.

Anyway, whatever.

So earlier you talked about Kathy Jew,

you know, who the Michigan beauty queen who got the axe because of a couple of tweets that were horrific.

They were horrific.

And one was actually just a reply to another tweet thread that was horrible.

So you can't be doing that anymore at all.

And she said, I did interview.

I heard Stu talk about it.

I talked to her last week,

beginning of last week, Monday or Tuesday, and

I asked her if the Trump campaign had contacted her at all throughout this.

And at that time, she said, no, and I, you know, they probably won't.

I'm just doing this on my own.

Two days later, she's working for the reelection campaign.

They've reached out.

Oh, yeah, she's working for the re-election campaign.

And the Trump campaign has already tweeted what a patriot she is, and she's speaking for American values, and she's part of it now.

She's all part of the deal.

Wow.

So good for her.

Good for her.

You know, there's also,

We get viral videos all the time in today's world.

And you see them and you go, ah,

some of them are really cool.

Some of them are scary.

Some of them are funny.

And then you get the ones where you watch and you go, oh, my gosh.

And then you stop and look back and go, wait.

Like this video of this guy that finds a baby alligator.

Croikey.

Dial Dundee.

If you're listening, he's got a little baby alligator.

And the guy is filming

talking about the baby alligator.

And then

coming up behind him

is the mama gator, croikey, oh, yeah,

and they keep showing this mama gator coming up behind him and getting closer, and then they just stop, and then it just stops.

And you'll see, you know, it shows the split screen of the mammogator come up on him, and you know, the mama heard the baby crying, and it's wonderful.

Um,

no way that's real, right?

There's no way that's real.

The guy filming it isn't in any kind of uh uh mode of trying to get out of there.

that would be the pitch, I think, of the viral video, right?

Because he hasn't noticed it yet.

Okay.

Okay.

I'm just saying it's been sorry.

So you don't know

the distribution.

It will come up.

Okay.

I guarantee it will come up.

Did anything come out?

You guarantee me.

I guarantee.

Do I get my money back?

Yes, you do.

100%.

I want to know.

In fact, you get your video view back.

Okay.

I want to know, Jeffy, you would be the one who knows this.

Has the

raw

chicken meat that crawls off the plate

approved.

No, it has not.

It has not that I'm aware of.

As far as I understand, it's not.

Not that I'm aware of.

I showed that to my wife the other day.

I got tight real.

I know.

Nobody's said it isn't.

Where's that real?

It just can't be.

Well, yeah, it's the nerve ending.

No, no, no.

Nerve endings are alive at that point.

Right.

Okay.

They are saying they think it was not a chicken, but it was a frog.

It was frog meat.

Okay.

Which happens.

Which happens.

That's what they said.

That was a weird bone for a frog.

It was.

It was really creepy.

And this is like,

apparently,

whether this video is real or not,

everyone's assuming, at least, and the reporting is that it is actually real video,

but it is not...

It's not something that hasn't happened before.

That will happen on occasion if

the meat is freshly cut.

Right.

If you haven't seen the video, basically,

if you go to a grocery store and you get a raw chicken, it looks kind of like that.

You know what I mean?

It's sitting on a plate about to be cooked and it crawls off the plate.

It's at one of those restaurants where they cook the meal in front of you, it looks like.

Yeah, yeah, that's not what it looks like, yeah, Benny Hana kind of place or whatever.

But as my wife pointed out, well, hasn't the chicken been de-feathered?

You know, the head's been cut off, they've done a lot of dressing to it, they've cut it up like this, and then it comes to your

table, and it's still

fresh like that.

I don't know, but they're

they just skinned the animal.

And I guess, by the way, I think it was a frog and not a chicken, which would explain the feather thing.

Because there's not as many

feathers on frogs.

There are no feathers on frogs.

There's less feathers on frogs than you'd expect.

Depends on where you get them.

Depends on where you get them.

You can get the feathers.

Fair, fair.

I mean, that is a big frog if that's a frog.

Yeah, it is.

Holy cow.

The bone that the meat comes on is

like 18 inches.

No.

It has to be.

Well, maybe 12.

Maybe it's a foot long.

Are you a fisherman now?

I caught the fish.

It was this big.

Also, I'm so sick of living here in the United States.

I'm sick of hearing about Baltimore and being the, I believe, a quote from Pat Gray, and Pat Gray unleashed was, Baltimore was a Democratic

hell hole.

Yes.

I believe it was the quote.

Yes.

Because of 70 years of Democrat leadership, led him right into that hellhole.

It's time for a change.

And the Crown Prince Mohammed bin bin Salman of Saudi Arabia agrees, which is why he's going to be building the $500 billion megacity in the middle of the desert, which I'm looking forward to moving to.

I don't know about you.

$500 billion.

$500 billion mega city.

You heard about this city?

33 times the size of New York City.

Wait, 33 times.

That's what it says here.

33 times the size of New York City.

Oh my gosh.

You're going to have flying taxis, a giant artificial moon that will be illuminated every evening, state-of-the-art security and surveillance system, which

I'm a fan of, of course.

You'll use drones, security cameras, facial recognition technology to track everybody.

Cloud seating technology to make artificial clouds.

They want rain in the desert where it doesn't rain very often.

School classes taught by holographic teachers,

leading education on the planet.

You're going to get a Jurassic park-like island filled with robotic dinosaurs to entertain residents and visitors.

Come on.

A dining scene, the highest rate of Michelin-starred restaurants, which I'm not sure why you'd want to eat tires even in the desert, but okay.

And

be done by 2030.

Good luck.

Good luck.

And I would have to say that 500.

I definitely want to visit.

I'd want to see that if they can pull it off.

Oh, my gosh.

Can they build a $500 billion city before we die?

Is that possible?

I think that's past our lifetime, I feel like.

And also, the price of the.

They said 2030 is the target date for Calman.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I don't know.

I think it'd be fun to

go to.

Yeah, no, it seems amazing.

Why do you want a giant light-up moon?

Well, what's the point?

We do have an actual moon that you could probably see from where you are.

But not every night.

Yeah,

some nights there's clouds in front of us.

Well, that's true.

Lots of clouds in the desert in Black Towns.

Just sandstorms and stuff.

You can't have that.

That's true.

So you just want to block it up.

Can it be done?

i don't know i don't know but it'd be fun it's gonna be fun to watch him try i will say it's a big enough government project that i could see it being proposed tonight on stage i could see like uh you know would elizabeth warren before this absolutely

we need to build a 500 billion dollar city uh in baltimore and it'll be

we need a giant light up moon this is all stuff that you could see being proposed by a democrat on stage tonight how is it that baltimore became this new shining city uh just for from one tweet?

It is amazing.

Baltimore, Maryland.

It's been a Democratic hellhole forever.

I mean, you see.

Have you seen it this time of year?

Just when the late Summer Rains start to wash away and have dead body chalk outlines.

The only experience in Maryland is being pulled over by a state trooper once.

That's it.

Shocking.

I will say, I think we're at the point.

And

coming into this, I was a little, for example, we talked about this quite a bit at the time on Patton Stew and other shows.

I was not sure Donald Trump had really had a conversion on the life issue.

You know, he had never really discussed it before.

He said he was pro-life, and I think he's done a good job.

He supported the pro-life cause much more aggressively than I would have expected.

However, and more aggressively than other Republicans.

And more aggressively than other people.

Other presidents have done.

He's done a good job on that issue, and we've praised him many times over it.

However,

what if instead

he comes out and says he's pro-choice now?

Reverses himself and says, I love abortion.

Only horrible, horrible people would want to stop it.

In fact, I think we should have abortions six months after birth.

I mean,

the haters are going to have to reverse, right?

Yeah, Kamala Harris would be like,

no more abortions.

They've got to be illegal.

Close down Planned Parenthood.

They have to oppose everything he believes.

MSNBC would be doing segments about how the horrible destruction of life he was advocating.

I'd almost like him to do that just to watch.

Just to see what it was backwards to oppose him.

He should come.

I mean, it's we've seen it legitimately happen with free trade i mean yeah the democrats opposed free trade they wanted the union take on on protectionism for decades you could have watched any cable news network over the past 30 years and watched them say how great tariffs are absolutely and how great protectionism was

And as soon as Donald Trump came out and said he wanted tariffs, they're all against it.

And they're all on the free trade side now.

This is incredible.

He should just come out and oppose all of these things.

Be great.

Pat Stuff for Glenn, 888727BECK.

Netflix spending a fortune on original movies now because they have to.

As soon as all of these other streaming services kick into gear, Amazon's going to lose, I don't know, 60, 70% of their content.

Once Disney takes everything off, off, Warner takes everything off for their own thing.

NBC Universal takes all theirs off.

Apple takes, I don't know that they have anything, but CBS All Access.

CBS All Access, another one.

There's others, plenty of

networks that are trying.

Friends in the Office are going, and those are their two most popular TV shows.

So how long does it last, though?

I mean, Amazon, Disney's probably the only one that can hold out, right, and survive.

within App Fatigue World.

The others, they're not going to be able to do it, right?

Sooner or later, they're going to have to come back to either Amazon or Disney or Netflix.

It seems like eventually will be a subscription.

Like you're paying 40 bucks a month and you get access to all of them or something.

That's what needs to happen, probably.

But that's just

back to cable.

It's true.

It's the same thing.

It's true.

You know, it will be interesting.

I think the Apple one is they're going to spend so much money.

I mean, they're the biggest company in the world

up and down on that.

Yeah, so I mean, they can spend a ton.

You know, Netflix is interesting.

At some point, they're going to take away so many of these shows.

Can it support itself?

I think the answer to that probably is yes.

And they've built such a big backlog of original stuff.

And they have what?

Worldwide?

150 million subscribers.

That's a good business.

That's a lot.

Yeah.

But they're spending $520 million right now, right now, on three movies.

So they're investing a lot.

They've got a Dwayne Johnson action movie called Red Notice.

That's a pretty good draw.

Also stars Ryan Reynolds and Gal Godot.

There's two other stars that are, you know, they're pretty good draws.

Yeah.

That's a good cast.

If you're going to spend $500 million on three movies, you better have some stars in there.

No doubt about it.

Yeah.

They've also got a movie later this year that they'll release, Six Underground.

It's Michael Bay directed.

Those are always fun.

You know, fun.

And then they're spending $150 million on a Martin Scorsese movie called The Irishman.

Wow.

Yeah, bringing in all the old the mobster guys, right?

For the movie.

That'd be fun to watch.

That'll be interesting.

I mean, but like the Disney one, for example, they are doing, which I think is a movie.

I could be wrong, could be a series, but they're doing a movie about a about like basically Boba Fett from Star Wars.

Like a bounty hunter movie from Star Wars.

But it's not Boba Fett.

It's not Boba Fett.

It's another bounty hunter, but like living the life of like what a bounty hunter would do.

Like that is something like I, you know, as a Star Wars geek at some level, there's no question I'm subscribing to this service for that.

Absolutely.

100%.

You got to have the Disney one.

Yeah.

I mean, you're going to wind up with every, you're going to wind up having so many freaking subscriptions.

By the way, subscribe to the Blaze.

BlazeTV.com.

Use the phone Glenn20.

$20.

$20 off.

Yeah, if you wanna watch the Elon A

Mars special, you should do that.

And never unsubscribe.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

Warning.

If
