Oh, wow.

Look at this.

The architect of Obamacare has made a couple of omissions.

Remember when we told you that this was designed to fail, that this was not what they were saying it was?

And the White House came out and said, conspiracy theorist, these teabaggers are saying.

Well, now all of a sudden, Jonathan Gruber feels it's okay to admit, yeah,

we knew this was going to screw a few people, but hey, that's the price of Obamacare.

We'll get to that here in just a second.

Also, Mary Tyler Moore refusing to join the feminist movement with Gloria Steinem.

Yesterday, I said, I don't know if she was a communist or not, and I don't want to know.

Well, we did a little digging, and it's interesting what she said about the feminist movement and what she said about feminism itself.

We'll get to that.

And I feel actually bad for Drew Carey, but there's some missing pieces to the story about how his son joined an anti-Donald Trump inaugural deplorable ball and was setting things on fire.

And

Drew didn't know about it because he was at, he was hosting the inaugural ball for the military.

By the way, that one piece of missing information is his son is 11

and was caught by Fox News.

They had no idea who it was.

We'll play this amazing audio for you beginning right now.

I will make a stand, I will raise my voice, I will hold your hand.

Cause we have won.

I will beat my drum.

I have made my choice.

We will overcome.

Cause we are one.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Yes, it is.

Welcome to it.

Drew Carey.

He's the host of The Price of Price is Right.

He lost all the weight, and I found all of it.

And he can have it back.

But he's the host of the Price is Right and a very big libertarian,

not a guy who is for the Republicans or the Democrats, but a big constitutionalist, loves the Constitution, loves the country, loves the military.

Wait, what happened to Bob Barker?

Bob was eaten.

Yeah, I believe he was eaten by a bear.

Yeah.

Sure.

He was trying to pet him quite a number of years ago.

Wow.

Wow.

Bob's dead, isn't he?

Did he just die?

It seems like that.

Bob Barker, did he die?

I don't know about that.

Somebody can assure you.

Stu, just, so you know, Stu's not with us today.

He lost a member of the family, and I don't say that tongue-in-cheek.

He lost a dog

who has been with him and his wife forever.

That's for sure.

That is for sure.

So yesterday, in the middle of the show, he was pulled out.

And so he is just going to take the weekend off.

Oh, years ago, I would have made fun of him until I lost my dog, Victor.

And I cannot express, you

see it coming.

You don't realize how much of the family those dogs are.

It's kind of like Jeffy.

When we lose Jeffy, even though we kick him to the floor and let him sleep by the fireplace, don't.

And don't.

And let him eat the scraps off of our plate.

Don't.

Don't.

Bob Barker is 93.

He's not alive.

No, he's not dead.

He is still not dead.

He's still alive.

No, he's done that long enough.

All right.

Would you just do me a favor?

Every quarter hour today, just chime in.

Bob Barker, Barker, still not

alive.

Yep.

Anyway, so Drew Carey,

he is hosting the military's inauguration ball.

And

his son, now, I don't know this.

Could you read what his comment was to TMZ?

And I'm going to try to make sense of it, but I'm just making it up.

I don't know if this is what happened.

But I know people who know Drew Carey, and I know how he feels about the country.

And

he's not a wacky leftist or anarchist or

crazy rightist.

He's a very sensible, nice guy.

When TMZ caught up with him, he didn't even know that his son had participated.

He said, we were just,

his quote was,

just having dinner with my kid down the street and wanted to see the protest.

Okay, so here's what that's all he said, so we don't know.

So here's my guess.

He's having dinner before the ball, and he has to go do his job.

And if he's anything like my children, actually my children still kind of think it's kind of cool.

They help me behind the stage, but that'll eventually wear off.

And they'll say, Dad, please, I've seen you do this a hundred thousand times.

And, you know, can I go down here?

Assuming Drew Carey has some sort of security for his family, or at least somebody there with his son.

And so he said, yeah, go ahead.

And he said, I want to see the, you know, deplorable ball.

It's right around the corner.

I want to see what's happening on the street.

So he said, fine.

Some responsible adult that he thought was with his son, because his son is 11.

He sends him down the street.

And

then, lo and behold, who is the Fox reporter?

It's

Griff.

Yeah, Griff.

Griff doesn't have any idea

this is

Drew Carey's kid.

Just sees this kid who is kind of like throwing in the crowd, throwing stuff in a fire that was lit in the street.

And Griff happens to talk to him, and here's the exchange.

This fire was started.

In fact, this young man, you were participating in the fire.

What's your name?

My name's Carter, and I actually kind of started this fire.

So, why'd you start that fire, Carter?

It's Carter.

Carter.

Sorry, why'd you start that fire?

Because I felt like it, and because I'm just

saying, screw our president.

Holy.

Okay, well, there you have it, too.

Because

I felt like it.

it.

Because I felt like it, and I said, screw our president.

Now, I don't know how much trouble Connor and Carter are in today,

but the rest of the statement from Drew Carey was that he and his wife were horrified by what his son did and said.

Now,

I don't know if that's because I'm guessing most of the audience of the

price is right voted for Donald Trump.

I'm guessing.

I mean, even if they didn't.

Yeah, yeah.

Right, right.

But still, it makes it worse.

I mean, it makes it worse.

But the kid is

a punk starting fires because I felt like it.

And then to say that about any president of the United States at 11

speaks volumes, unfortunately,

about Drew Kerry and his parenting.

And I feel bad even saying that because everything I've ever heard about Drew Carey is he's a really, really good guy.

And so we all have bad kids, but good great.

Can you imagine?

What would you do to your son if that happened, Pat?

Well, at 11,

I mean.

I mean, my kid wouldn't have been there.

No.

No,

mine either.

I would crucify the person that allowed him to do that.

Plus, I mean, first of all, my son knows never to give his real name.

If a television camera calls on you, you're a different name.

What is that?

Always.

What is that?

Elvis, your name's Elvis?

No,

Edward.

Edward.

I said Edward.

And I do not know Jeff Fisher.

I am not the son of Jeffy Fisher.

What would the consequences be?

I can't even imagine.

I don't know.

That I'd have to think about for a good long time.

A good long time.

My son, you know my son.

My son is not necessarily on the saints list.

Yeah, well, I mean, no kids are.

Right.

I can't imagine him doing this.

Oh, my gosh.

Because I felt like it.

And screw the president.

You know what this goes to?

This goes to the same kind of thing with George Stephanopoulos.

Or does it?

Or does it?

Or does it?

I don't know.

It might just be the educational system.

It might be.

Or it might be.

Yep.

Didn't even do anything.

He's just trying to be smart in front of the camera.

He's out there and, yeah, I started it.

So in case you don't know, and just recap on

the George Stephanopoulos thing, remember George Stephanopoulos, his daughter, we found out, what, a week or two weeks after the election, that his daughter was still, 12-year-old daughter was still sleeping between mom and dad because she was so terrified that Donald Trump had won the election.

So, that one is what

is being said in the George Stephanopoulos home?

Of course, people are marching in the streets.

They're terrified.

What are you saying to them?

But

did I ever tell you what happened?

With Rafe and he loves this joke, and I have to tell him all the time, no, stop it.

No,

I have to instruct him because we are so sarcastic in our family.

And, you know, no matter what is said in our household, if I'll say something to him and he's not in real trouble and I say something to him, like, pick that up, he will just look at me and go, Oh, my t-shirt?

Why?

Because it's white.

Everything they say about you is true, Dad.

I mean, you know, so we have that kind of a relationship and jokes.

We were at this

charity fundraiser for a women's shelter.

And, you know, with the charity fundraiser, they're all these, you know, uppity important people.

And so we're standing there like bumps on a log, and all these people are coming around and they're talking.

And my son, really politely, says,

you know, would anybody like a drink?

Anybody need anything?

You want water or anything?

And I'm like, oh, thanks, Ray, forget water.

And so he went, and somebody else wanted a Coke.

And so he went to the bar and he got it.

And he came back.

And

one of the executives there said,

so what is, like, what are your goals, young man?

What are some of the things?

And Rafe looked at him, total deadpan, total dead, Bob Newhart, and said, well, tonight, it's booze.

That's a good answer.

Oh, my gosh.

That's a good answer.

And I wanted to laugh, but nobody laughed.

And I'm like, he's joking.

No, no, no.

He's no, I know I'm an alcoholic, but he's joking about that.

That'd be funny.

Total deadpan.

I feel bad

for Jim Carrey today.

I don't know if I should.

Drew Carrey.

Or Drew Carrey, but I feel bad for him.

Well, I feel bad for that.

What about Jim Carrey, too?

Yeah, he hasn't had a hit movie in a long time.

Yeah, he hasn't.

What happened to him?

I don't know.

He's out kicking.

I don't know.

I mean, he just spit on film, and it was $100 million for a while.

And now

he he can't buy a hit.

Right?

What was his last movie?

Jim Carreys?

Yeah.

Oh, I don't know.

Can't even think of one.

The last one I can think of is

the Scrooge thing he did with the cartoon.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

Grinch.

Grinch.

Well, he did, but that he did the, he did the

Christmas Carol cartoon.

I didn't know that.

And then before that, he did the Grinch.

So those were the last two.

The last two movies.

I mean, out of the two carries.

Out of the two carries, at least one of them has the price of white.

You know,

has the

big showdown, the big showcase showdown.

You know, that's spin the wheel.

I'm just saying.

Do you know that Bob Barker is still alive?

Thank you.

Is he really?

Age of 93.

93.

Still 93, still alive.

Congratulations.

Has he saved any dogs lately?

Oh, it's always spay and neuter your animals.

You know, he saves them all the time.

Yeah, spayed or

that's what I want on my tombstone.

As he always said,

spay or neuter your animal.

I think that's great.

Now this.

All it takes is breaking a rear window or a sliding door, and burglars can be in your home.

Three burglars in Washington State, 123 burglars, and the losses totaled $3 million.

So how did they do it?

Police said that all they did was they would just go in these really nice neighborhoods and they would look for a house that, you know, was empty, and then they would go to the back, and they would either break the glass, a little glass pane, and then reach around and open up the door, or they would break the sliding glass window.

Glass break technology for your security system is so easy.

If it hears the sound of glass breaking, it automatically calls police and

starts the siren.

They're not going to break into your house

if somebody opens a window, somebody opens a door, somebody, motion detectors.

Now, in the old days, you used to have to have these security companies come out, and then they'd give you an estimate.

And it was crazy.

But we're going to spread that over several months in a long-term five-year contract.

And so you're really paying only $50 a month, and that's worth it for you.

Really?

For $500, you can secure your house.

And then for $14.99 a month, you can get the 24/7 protection that calls police.

And there's no contract, there's no funny business, there's nothing, no wires.

It is the latest technology and a 60-day money-back guarantee.

You get a full refund if you don't like it and it doesn't work exactly the way you want it to work.

You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

People are going to start tweeting about Jim Carrey and what a bad dad.

And Jim Carrey's going to be like, what the hell?

What happened?

It's not Jim Carrey, Jeffy.

Okay.

It's Drew Carey.

It's Drew Carey.

Okay.

I don't know where I got confused.

Yeah, I don't know either, but

it's Jim Carrey.

Yeah.

What was, did you find his last movie, though?

Wasn't it?

Well,

he's got a couple that came out last year, but I mean, the last big one was 2014.

I mean, Dumb and Dumber 2.

Oof.

I don't know how big that was.

I don't think that was big.

No, I don't think that was big.

In fact, I thought I saw somebody or met somebody that went to it and said it was awful.

Can you imagine?

The first one was bad enough.

There are people like Stu, I think, likes Dumb and Dumber.

Yeah.

He thinks that's a a classic.

That's

yeah, well,

he's not here to defend himself, so I won't say anything about his taste in movies.

Isn't that like kind of like people from my generation think that Fast Times at Ridgemond High is funny?

I think you have to be

in that.

I didn't connect to that either, but I think you have to be in that

age group for that movie.

I think that movie is not made for, you know,

I think it's made for maybe 18-year-olds.

I'm just saying, which is kind of sad.

Yeah, well,

the last,

wow.

I mean, besides Dumb and Dumber 2,

T.O.,

you may have seen Kickass 2, right?

It's possible.

You may have seen Mr.

Popper's Penguins.

I did see that.

I did see that.

It wasn't terrible.

It wasn't terrible.

It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible.

It wasn't terrible.

He got into that.

He's in that phase that Eddie Murphy was in.

That when your career starts to go, you start making kids movies.

Kids' movies.

Yeah, but Eddie worked.

Eddie's worked.

I mean, Eddie's made a lot of money off those movies.

Probably.

Where is Eddie now?

Spending his retirement home.

Christmas Carol was 2009, which I liked that one a lot.

He was also in Yes Man in 2008.

Yes.

Horton Hears a Who.

He was the voice of that.

Yeah, that was good.

You know what?

The number 23.

Yes, Man was a good good thing.

Fun with Dick and Jane, which wasn't good.

That was clear back in 2005.

What happened to that?

A series of unfortunate events in 2005.

That wasn't good.

That was not good.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

That wasn't supposed to be good.

But that's when he started going south because nobody wanted him in serious movies like that.

Wasn't Eternal Sunshine a super serious movie?

Yeah, I think it was.

Before that, it was Bruce Almighty, which was probably a fairly big hit.

The Majestic.

Oh, that was great.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas, which was big.

Yeah.

Me, Myself, and Irene, which wasn't great.

No.

Man on the Moon, where he was brilliant.

See, that was

not a hit.

That was the problem, though.

People didn't want to see him funny.

He was robbed by not getting an Oscar for that.

Yeah, he was.

He was robbed.

Because he was great.

He was brilliant in that.

You know, it's like

Robin Williams.

How many times, how many, how many dramatic roles did Robin Williams do?

Too many, sadly.

Oh, come come on.

He was great.

He was great in all of those roles.

He was great in all of those roles.

Dead Poet Society?

That's the one he was nominated for.

That was a great movie.

Did he win the Oscar for that?

I don't know if he was a fan of that.

I don't think so.

But he was nominated for that, but he didn't get nominated for

Awakenings.

He wasn't nominated for

what's its name in the park?

Fisher King.

Yeah, Fisher King.

And then he did something where he was a serial killer or something.

That was really good.

I never saw that, but I heard that was really terrifying.

Yeah, and then he also, the one movie, I don't have to look its list of movies up, where it was The Future and he took the people's brain chips out of their brain so he watched people's history

was really good.

You would love that movie.

That's weird.

I've never heard of that.

What is that one?

It's really

listening to this John Kerry, I mean, this Jim Carrey run for a while.

Now, John Kerry is going to be

like what did I do wrong?

This Jim Carrey run.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Me, Myself, and Irene, Man on the Moon, The Truman Show, Liar, Liar, The Cable Guy, Ace Ventura with Nature Calls, Batman Forever, Dumb and Dumber, The Mask,

Peggy Sue Got Married, Deadpool, and that's kind of where it all begins.

But, I mean, that was one after another, about six in a row of 100 million-plus movies.

I think he saved his money.

I don't know.

I don't know.

Probably.

Hopefully.

Hopefully, these guys know by now that it's not going to last forever.

I don't know.

Do we know that?

I think of that all the time.

All the money we've made, and I've blown it on, you know, hey, let's build a network.

Yeah, that was brilliant.

That was a good idea.

Would have been much better if I would have put it up all my nose.

That would have made much more sense.

Anyway, back in just a second.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

Mercury.

We going out tonight, Pat?

I mean, not you and me, but

with women?

Yes.

Not our wives, right?

No, not our wives.

So it's getting too old.

Oh, my gosh.

You know?

Neither of us said we wanted to be married.

I never said I wanted to be married to a 40-plus 60-year-old woman.

No way.

My gosh, that was never my dream.

I don't know if she ever said, I want to marry somebody who's fat and dumb.

Gigantic, fat, dumpy.

You know, a 50-year-old guy.

I don't think they ever said that.

But that

is what they said.

Right.

Right?

Right.

Right.

Right.

Take me to Mary Tyler Moore.

She knows.

She knows.

She does.

Your place is at the home.

Right.

Right.

Even Mary Tyler Moore knew.

Yeah.

Actually, she's right on this.

She's right on this part.

Listen to this.

Because her character was the most popular career woman in America, Mary Tyler Moore was pressured to join the 1970s feminist movement.

But when activist Gloria Steinem tried to recruit Mary Tyler Moore, the actress resisted.

I believed that women and still do have a very major role to play as mothers.

What?

It's very necessary for mothers to be involved with their children.

And that's not what Gloria Steinem was saying.

Gloria was saying, oh, you can do everything

and you owe it to yourself to have a career.

And

I didn't really believe in that.

And that's a woman who had a career.

Right.

Yeah.

And a really

extremely successful one.

Didn't her son die of tragic circumstances?

Yes, her son, I believe, killed himself.

How old?

I wonder if that played a role.

He was 24 when he...

Okay, so it was all through.

He was already an adult.

I wonder if that played a role, though, that maybe, you know, that she thought, did that happen in the 70s or

probably not because she wasn't old enough in the early 70s when the women's live movement was going on.

But maybe, again, maybe she felt guilty.

Yeah, I don't know.

But that's, I mean,

that was the theory, though, from Gloria Stein,

Steinem and the others, is that you, you know, you have, in order to be somebody as a woman, you had to have a career.

And I think a lot of people believe that.

There was a lot of pushback against that, though.

But I think a lot of people believe that, still believe that, but they're not pushing themselves intellectually because they want that to be true.

You know what I mean?

They want to be able to say, I can have it all.

I mean, I used to say that.

Pat, you know that.

You used to say to me all the time, go home.

Be with your kids.

And I'd be like, oh, gosh, have you been around my kids?

And I wouldn't.

And my problem was I was afraid of being a dad.

But

it's true that kids need to have the parents.

That's a dad, too.

But

I'm so proud of my daughter when she, you know,

she came to work.

after her first

and she was planning on going back to work after her second And I wasn't for her coming to work, you know, but I support her anything, you know, whatever you decide, it's your decision.

You're an adult.

And she said, I, you know, I want to go back to work.

And I'm like, oh, okay.

And

prayed that she would figure it out.

And the two of them, when she had the second baby, she was like, she was saying beforehand, yeah, I'm going back to work.

And

she came to me, you know, just so open and honest and great.

And she said, I don't know what I was thinking, Dad.

Why would I leave my child?

This is the most important thing I could possibly do.

I'm like, hey, man, the sky's opened up.

No kidding.

They'll go cook me some food.

Well, she said that while she was setting my plate down in front of him, yeah.

And of course, that's not to condemn anybody who's

doing career and family.

No.

You know, and that's what we'll hear.

No, yes, that's the problem.

But that's not a condemnation on women who are.

And you know what?

I've met women who are more

man

than woman.

They sound like a man when

they're like,

I can't do it.

I can't even imagine it.

Where Tanya, she has something in her.

Jackie's like this.

Some women don't.

Some guys have it.

Some guys don't.

I would lose my ever-loving mind.

If anybody thinks that being a stay-at-home mom or a stay-at-home dad is easy, you're out of your mind.

That is the hardest.

That's the hardest job there is.

I don't know how they do it.

I don't either.

Hardest job there is.

Tim is, you know, the most satisfying thing about being a grandparent is the reaction of your kids.

It's not the joy of the babies or the children.

That is really great.

But it is your kids saying,

I don't know.

I mean, they're crying all the time and they're into stuff and you just, you just look at them and go, yeah, I know.

And then you see that just that second of oh my gosh you do know oh my gosh i judged you all those years for it's such a great am i alone on that no it is the greatest thing my oldest daughter we just went to the hospital to visit her with her brand new baby and i i picked up the baby and the little bassinet there and jackie's like get it get get her head get her head like i i know i've had six of these i know how to do it And Amber said, because it's her third now.

And she said, I don't know how you guys did it.

I don't know how you did it.

Oh, my gosh.

Because we had six.

Oh, my gosh.

And that's rewarding to hear from.

Well, she's,

it was hard.

Okay.

So Hannah said, I don't know how, you know, I want to have three, maybe four.

I don't know.

And poor Tim,

poor Tim is looking at me across the dinner table like, I can't take another second.

I don't know how to function.

He's like going nuts.

Oh, he's going crazy.

Yeah, man.

He is like, there's no sleep.

You know, it's he's got a two-year-old and a newborn.

So there's no sleep for any of them.

Yeah.

For a while.

For a while.

And then you have another one.

And then you just continue to sleep.

It just keeps going.

And then it keeps going.

What you do is when one of them gets old enough,

then you say, get up and go help, go feed the kid.

That's what you do.

You reach to the point where you got to continue to have kids so the older kids can raise the young ones.

Right.

That's why you need to have eight.

Because you just have to barrel through the first three or four.

Right.

And then the

last four are so busy they can't get into trouble.

You know, you stop them from going to school, of course, because they've got to work at the house all day.

But then they have no friends and they have no way to get into trouble.

That's brilliant.

Yes.

Yes, it is.

And there are probably people right now listening going, oh my gosh, these guys are dead serious.

And we want you to know, yes.

Yeah.

Yes.

Obviously.

Absolutely.

Obviously, we are.

Absolutely we are.

But we started this out with the movies.

And what movie

to see tonight?

Oh, yeah.

We're going to a movie tonight.

The big movie right now is Split.

Have you seen that?

I don't think Tanya.

I don't think Jackson's.

I've got to see that guy movie for you, Pat.

It's a big guy movie.

It's a big movie for you.

Yeah, it's M.

Night Shyamalan.

Yes.

And that's why I'm interested in it.

Yeah.

But it's M.

Night Shyamalan, so I'm interested in seeing it.

Is there a twist?

No, stop that.

That only cost $9 million to make, and it's already made $40 million.

So that's doing really good.

So M-Night, he has had bomb after bomb after bomb.

And I read a great article about him a couple of weeks ago.

You know, remember he lived right down the street from me in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Yeah.

That's where he filmed part of the village.

Yeah, at his property.

When that village came out, remember it was something about the red,

you know, the red flowers or something?

His whole place when that movie was going out had those red flowers all around the gates of his house.

It was a little creepy.

It was cool though.

So

I read this great article.

He said, I've learned my lesson that

when I'm doing suspense, it's good.

When I'm doing kids movies or anything like that, it's bad.

Wow.

Yeah.

So it looks like he got his head handed to him.

And I feel bad for him because he fell into this trip of everything has to be.

Look at you.

Does it have a twist?

No, that's because what he did, that's what he did every single time.

I know.

But it doesn't have to have a twist every time.

I know.

But that's just what he

every single time.

I know.

I wish he would learn that.

I don't know if he learned that in this one.

I don't know either.

And when you start out with a twist as good as The Sixth Sense, which was maybe the best twist of all time in movies, then it's tough to top that.

And he tried to and you just couldn't quite do it.

I thought the village was pretty good.

The new twist in that was good.

But

well, it was always aliens, right?

Yeah, that aliens with signs.

It was stupid.

I kind of liked aliens.

Then he did the global warming thing where the bees were pissed.

The bees were pissed.

The bees are back this summer.

The bees are back at this time.

They're pissed.

So

they were killing people.

The earth was a little bit of a break.

What's the guy who's playing the role of the split personality?

What was he?

I can't tell you.

I can't remember.

What else was he?

Silly name.

Anybody know?

What else?

And the new X-Men?

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

He plays the Patrick Stewart role.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

Right.

I don't remember who I know that went to this.

I think maybe Matthew went to it the other day and said, phenomenal performance.

Yeah, it has to be, right?

Because the whole thing revolves really around him.

Yeah.

He said he changes his body.

He changes everything.

He said he is really a master in this.

Yeah, but what's the twist?

Right?

Did he tell you what the twist is?

I think it's that the person who keeps saying that gets punched in the face.

I think that's what the twist is.

I'm not really sure, but I think that's what it is.

Are you interested in Hidden Figures, the NASA movie?

Not really.

You know, you're going to watch.

That's a movie you have to watch, though, right?

No, I know, but I wanted to go see it with my kids, but they went with somebody else.

There's really nothing to see because you've already seen La La Land.

I loved it.

I go see it again.

Tommy and I want to go see it again.

Patriots Day.

I heard a review for you.

I don't want to see that.

Do you want to see that?

I kind of, but Jackie doesn't.

Yeah, I don't want to see.

I just don't want to see terror stuff anymore.

Oh, the founder is interesting to me.

The founder with that

McDonald's?

No, we heard that they're making him look bad.

No, I don't know if that's true.

I don't know if that's true.

He's a shrewd businessman, and I think he's an aggressive businessman.

I know that.

So they probably

have to do it with that.

Yeah.

And I think they do.

I don't know if they make it.

Which in their world makes it bad.

Right.

Yeah.

Right.

I mean, you don't get to own a corporation like McDonald's without having some.

But Ray Kroc was one of the Ray Kroc is one of the most giving people.

Didn't he?

Like,

I'm trying to remember.

Ray Kroc was a huge philanthropist.

Yeah, after he screwed everybody to get where he was.

Hey.

Well, look at the Ronald McDonald house.

They're still raising money for that stinking

house.

You think it's going to be a house?

How big of a house is that?

How big a house does he need?

I mean, that's crazy.

And

it's under construction forever.

Right?

Must be 200,000 square feet by now.

He's only got one outfit.

Come on.

One pair of shoes.

Who wants to hang out with him?

How many rooms does he

have?

These are the questions that we want to know.

Right.

And, oh, geez, I forgot about that.

I should put that in there.

And before you know it, it is stuffed.

Liberty Safe.

I want to play some Brett Musberger audio that will blow your mind.

Now, he's retiring,

and who is he with here?

He's with Dan Patrick.

Okay, so he's with Dan Patrick, and they're talking about Keith Olbermann.

Now, listen to what he says.

He's like, when did this happen?

Keith Oberman become this progressive that

banner.

I mean,

I think I was looking for Mussperger on Google last night.

I'd added up Irish whiskey that I hit the O-button and I looked at Oberman.

He's calling for the president to resign.

Well, the weekend, but what's going on with my guy?

I mean, come on.

I mean, he's the baseball guy.

I want to know how many games the Cups are going to win next year.

And he's out there calling for Mr.

Trump to resign.

Where did this happen?

You worked with Keith a lot.

Come on, Lanner.

We never spoke about politics in all of the years we were together, including the five and a half years at the mothership.

We did not discuss politics one time.

First of all, I can't believe it.

I do not believe it.

As rabid an extremist as Keith Olmey is, he never spoke to Dan Patrick.

If I'm not sure, his honor partner about politics.

Come on now.

I find that hard to believe.

The only political moment we had is he gave me a book on Winston Churchill, The Last Lion, and that was it.

Other than that, we did not discuss politics.

But you've got free time on your hand, Brent.

Give Keith a call.

I'm sure that you guys could

find out exactly what's going on here.

Yeah, you know, it's interesting that you say that.

I'm fascinated to hear that he was not politically inclined.

You know, we all know that he's a deep thinker, especially about baseball.

Okay.

And you should get off that soapbox of his and get back to where we enjoy him.

I'd love to listen to him talk baseball.

Yeah, I mean, and that's a good safety tip for all sports guys.

We don't want to hear your nonsense on

politics.

Just tell us about the game.

Tell us about the athletes.

We don't want to hear your nonsense.

Mainly because you don't know.

It'd be like me talking about sports.

About sports.

I don't know what I'm talking about.

So I should not talk about sports.

Sportscasts.

You don't know what the hell you're talking about.

There's nothing worse than somebody trying to talk about politics

in a responsible position.

Yeah.

And they have no idea what they're talking about.

No clue at all.

I mean, it does take a little bit of study to

be able to pontificate pontificate

wisely.

Interesting, though, it sounds like Musberger's, I mean, calling him Mr.

Trump, that sounds, I mean, at least Republican, right, if not conservative.

We should get him on.

I don't want to talk politics with him, but I mean, the guy's a legend.

Yeah, yeah.

We should get him on.

Yeah.

Also, the new chair of the DNC.

Her job to shut white people up.

Wait until you hear this explanation.

We begin there, right now.

my choice.

We will overcome.

Cause we are one.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

It's a new candidate for the DMC chair.

She's from Idaho, and

so she's down with, you know, race relations.

No, seriously, I mean...

Idaho is like

ground zero.

It is ground zero.

It is racial relations in this country.

If you want to understand racial relations

and racial tensions.

Yeah.

Oh, you go right there.

Inner city Pocatello, for instance.

Oh, my gosh.

Is over 0.3% black.

Over 0.3%.

Can I tell you something?

You go to Preston, Idaho.

Now, not a lot of people have heard about it because there's about 600 people that live there.

but the racial undercurrent sure tension sure between

german white to say nordic white yes so it's quite and that

tension between the nordic and the germans is crazy palpable just driving through the state you can feel it oh i don't even i i you know we vacation we have a we have a ranch up in idaho and i don't even like saying it because you say anything just just even this month

could set the state on fire yes it could the busing situation that's still going on oof

man

she is the uh democratic

uh

she's the democratic party executive director in idaho okay oh in idaho in idaho okay and she's going for the uh chairman of the dnc and here's now she might be overcompensating a bit.

You think?

Maybe.

But she wants everybody to know that she's the right person for the chair because

she understands race relations and what has to happen.

My job is to listen to the issues.

Yeah.

My job is to listen and be a voice.

And my job is to shut other white people down when they want to interrupt.

Stop, stop, stop.

My job is to shut

other white people down when they want to interact.

Who are you?

Who are you to shut anyone down of any color for any reason?

Wow.

My job is to shut down other white people when they want to interact.

You only learn that kind of street toughness

from people from Idaho.

Yeah.

Right?

Preston.

Yeah.

Preston in particular.

Oh, that's more, that's, that's more,

that's more mean streets of Weston.

To shut other white people down when they want to say, oh, no, I'm not prejudiced.

I'm a Democrat.

I'm accepting.

My job is to make sure that they get, that they have privilege.

And until we shut our mouths

and we listen to those people who don't, and we lift our people up.

Okay, stop for a second.

So that we

lift our people up.

Psychotic.

It is

psychotic.

Arrogance and

way out of your league.

No one has the right to shut anyone up if they want to interact.

That's crazy.

That is crazy talk.

And

Democrats, you are really going to have a bright, bright future.

Aren't they all?

Oh, yeah, they are.

They've got a farm team like you can't believe.

The people on the bench is waiting to take over.

It's huge.

It's deep.

You know, this is not.

This was not the Reagan Revolution.

This was all about Barack Obama.

It's all about Barack Obama.

This wasn't about the principles of anything.

This was about him.

And there's nothing left.

There's just nothing left.

Look who they went to.

First, it was going to be Keith Ellison.

Keith Ellison

was your pick.

With ties, questionable ties to radical Islam.

Oh, my gosh.

And now you're talking about this person?

Like

the queen of shutting white people down in Idaho?

And she said her job is then to hold her people up.

When did we become about these groups

that I've got to hold, you know, oh, I'm Democrat.

So she's going to take on the Democrats.

I'm a Democrat, so I get it.

Shut up, white person.

You don't even understand.

And listen to what she's saying.

Because, how I mean, I have spent the last year saying we just have to listen.

We just have to listen more.

And you've always said we've always, we've all always said more voices, not less voices.

We're not trying to shut anybody down.

So she's saying we have to listen.

Listen to the way she's saying that.

I'm saying the same thing.

We have to listen to each other.

But I'm not going to shut you up.

Can you imagine what an audience would say?

This is the problem.

The free market is so dead with the political system.

Imagine somebody in the free market where you live or die by your crowd.

If I got on and said, my job, I just want you to know, Glenn Beck listeners, that my job is to shut you down.

You say you want to interact.

I'm going to need to shut you up until you listen to these people.

Oh my gosh, you would not survive.

You would not survive.

But to say, and this is what needs to be said, we all need to listen.

But what are they saying?

We need to listen.

We need to listen to black people because we have privilege.

My message is, I have to listen to all people because I'm not hearing, I'm not hearing them.

I'm not hearing what they're trying to say.

Now, I'm not talking about those people who want power.

I'm saying I didn't know,

Pat,

when we were on the plane coming back from Washington with Hutch,

I got a lesson

in race and race relations.

And we didn't say a word all the way out, all the way back from Washington to Texas.

I don't think we said a word on the plane.

We were spellbound by his experiences.

Right.

And we listened and we heard him and our eyes opened up.

But he didn't say, shut up, white people, and lose.

No, he didn't.

No.

He said, I understand.

The first thing he said was, I understand how you feel.

I understand how you feel.

But

let me tell you some stories, some experiences of mine.

That's the way you do it.

That's the way we're supposed to do it.

I'll be really interested to see when the DNC, when Democrats, and and I can't figure this out,

Hillary Clinton is not Bill Clinton.

Bill Clinton was liked.

Bill Clinton was

a good guy, you know what I mean?

Yes.

He had all of his problems.

I don't think he's, you know, he's not a guy that I would say, hey, kids, he's a good guy.

You should emulate him.

But he's not a bad guy.

And he's very, very likable.

Okay.

Hillary Clinton, absolutely unlikable.

Just unlikable.

From the get-go.

From the get-go.

From the get-go.

And,

you know, not because she's a woman or anything else.

She just has,

A, that kind of personality that is just grading and I'm better than you and

fake.

At least I think.

Beyond that,

everyone knows she's corrupt.

Everyone knows she's she's corrupt.

She knows she's corrupt.

Even we've said this, even people who were raising money for her.

One person who was a PR person for her said, Oh my gosh, most

corrupt person I've ever met.

Why are you still doing PR?

Well, because blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Better than the alternative.

Right.

Okay, great.

Now she's lost.

A way to make yourself feel better

is to say,

you know what, that's because they gave us Hillary Clinton.

I mean, that's what Republicans do all the time.

Yeah, well, we would have won, but we had Bob Dole.

Right.

Okay?

We would have won, but we had John McCain.

Why is no one willing to say, this is an honest question, why is no one willing to say, she was an awful candidate?

Awful.

They're afraid of the Clinton backlash, right?

I mean, behind doors, they say.

They don't want to be number 102 on the death list.

Thank you.

No, I'm being serious.

That might be 104 or 105 now.

You're not.

It's 104 or 105 right now.

No, you're not.

Why is it that no Democrat

willing to say that?

They are so extreme in the Democrat Party that

I don't know how they're not kind of pulled back into place a little bit well we hear that we're continually told how extreme the Republican Party is the Democrats are the most extreme party Probably in American history you know the main Democrat.

Yeah,

because they're filled with people like this

Whitey hating white people

Marxists socialists abortionists abortion people who abortion is their number one people who boo God.

Yeah.

I mean, extreme.

But then we have the stories where the Democrats, the senators are getting together and having focus groups on how to speak to those who feel invisible in rural America.

It's not what the DNC chairman is saying, I'll tell you that.

No.

Or the DNC chairman wannabe.

Yeah.

And you're having that while at the same time, I mean, why aren't they at least saying, you know, Bernie Sanders might have been a better candidate?

They at least embrace what they actually believe.

I mean, what you could say about Hillary Clinton was, well, she wasn't extreme enough.

She wasn't Marxist enough.

She wasn't leftist enough.

She wasn't whatever enough.

It wouldn't have mattered.

She doesn't relate to anyone.

No, I know that.

But they won't say that.

They won't say she was corrupt.

They won't say that she couldn't, she was plastic.

They won't say that she was a liar.

And they also won't say, well, that's because she didn't, she was too far out of step with our policies, you know which are you know let's Carl come on over here and tell us about your Marxism

they won't say anything and I can't figure out why because it would be the natural state of you throw the last candidate under the bus to make yourself feel better

it's what we always do right republicans do it every single time

And so do they.

They always do.

You lose.

It's because that guy was just flawed.

They won't say that.

Why?

I don't know if there's anybody.

Is there anybody left in the Democrat Party to do that?

Is there anybody left

sees it?

Nobody in the press is willing to say, come on, guys.

Really?

You're still doing studies on this?

I mean, there were a hundred

of them.

And now this.

Let me tell you about upside.com.

Traveling can get costly pretty quickly.

The flights and the hotels add up quickly.

Upside.com is the new way for you to book travel and save money.

And on top of that, every time you buy a trip at Upside, they'll give you an Amazon gift card worth $100, $200, even $300 every single time.

This is the greatest thing.

Stu and I were talking about this the other day because

Stu is a guy who just loves number crunching and

is the kind of guy that looks to save every single penny that he can.

His wife, on the other hand, doesn't care.

He cares.

And he is fascinated by this, as I.

This comes from the guy who was the creator of,

what is it?

Priceline.

And we were talking on the phone.

He's got to come down and we got to do a show with him because he's fascinating.

He says this is going to be the wave of the future, not just for travel, but he believes for everything

because he's figured out a way.

that if you bundle things,

you can cut the price dramatically.

You're going to save so much money.

And the best thing is, for business travel, they've gotten this.

The average business traveler spends about 80-some minutes booking their travel.

Think of that.

Think of the waste of time.

Oh, my God.

So much time.

80 to 87 minutes.

They want to get it down to three.

I think they have it down to five minutes now.

Pat, you just did it.

That's pretty impressive.

How long did it take you to find your flights and hotels?

Four minutes?

Not even that.

Not even that.

No, not even that.

I mean, it's that fast.

And every single time, every time, you'll get a gift card worth $100, $200, or even $300.

So you keep

your miles.

The company saves a buttload of money.

You look like a hero.

And you get an Amazon gift card at least worth $100.

Are you kidding me?

What is not to love about this?

It's upside.com.

Use my name Beck, and you'll be guaranteed to get at least a $200 Amazon gift card for your very first trip for free.

We're just talking about Donald Trump yesterday said,

I'm going to put a 20% tax on everything that comes out of Mexico.

It would be disastrous.

Oh, man.

And the import tax on everything we import from Mexico?

Right.

Now,

he said that's down.

He said it was a 45% tax from Mexico.

Now he said it was 20%, and then he walked that back.

And Pat was like, you know, go ahead, Pat.

Well, I mean, it's the same day he walks back all of these statements.

Right.

And he's done that time after time after time.

So now, but here's my point on this.

I actually think this just may be a negotiating tactic.

When it comes to the negotiations of our trade agreements.

That's what his supporters always say.

He's a great negotiator.

It's part of the negotiation.

I'm hoping that.

And maybe it is.

Maybe it is.

I hope so.

I hope so, because if it's real, we're screwed.

Yeah.

But Vicente Fox came out and said this: He is mentioning that he will impose 35% taxation on cars made in Mexico.

President Peña should stand up, should get out of there, and should tell him, we don't need your NATA.

We can live without it.

You cannot.

You cannot because of the food, the grain that you export to Mexico, the meat, yes, the 40 million US dollars, 40 billion that you export of finished automobiles, luxury, trucks,

agricultural machinery,

motor parts, auto parts.

It's over 40 billion, which means, again, millions of jobs for U.S.

A.

The mirror strategy will apply.

You tax Mexican imports, we will tax U.S.

imports in Mexico.

Okay, so of course they will.

Yeah, so here's the thing.

You start a trade war.

Yeah, this is why trade, why tariffs don't work.

And we've said this from the very beginning.

Donald Trump has said Mexico will pay for it.

And the reason why they're going to pay for this, you know, how many billions of dollars is this wall supposed to cost?

If it's an actual wall,

they can't, they will not pay for it.

The people would not put up with it.

If the government, can you imagine if Mexico said, we're building something and you guys are going to pay for it?

We'd go out of our mind.

The same thing will happen with the Mexican people.

They will go out of their mind.

So they won't do it.

Trump has said, well, I'm just going to put a tariff on it.

And through tariffs, they'll pay us.

We have said disaster because tariffs always cause a trade war.

The United States says they're going to put a 20%.

Oh, Mexico says, great, I'm going to put a 22% or a 25% or a 35% or a 40% tariff on your goods.

And then our people are struggling on both sides.

And so what do we do?

We either back off

or we raise our tariff.

Oh, really?

We're going to do that.

And it becomes a trade war and it starts to circulate around the world.

This is what caused, part of what caused, the Great Depression.

This is why people are saying now it's going to be worse than it was in 1933.

Harry Dent is out with a new book, and it has nothing to do with Trump.

I don't understand how people are,

people on our side, people who have done their homework, not the people who have been making fun of us forever, saying, oh, yeah, you're storing food.

Oh, you're buying gold.

You're buying, oh,

you need another place you can run to in the mountains.

They're all doing that now.

They dismissed the reality of the situation because they were comfortable with their guy in charge.

Please don't do that on our side.

A trade war could trigger massive collapse.

Harry Dent, I was just saying, is a guy who

has called it right

all the way since the 1990s.

And he is saying now, buckle up, kids.

Here it comes.

Did he ever get his face fixed from that tooth-face thing?

He got burned on one side of his face.

Different hairy side of his face and a different carry that we were talking about last hour.

All right.

Back in just a minute.

So

the wall being built.

You and Stu, are you in on this, Jeffy, too?

I'm in on.

I'll cook it for him.

Yeah, they both need our underwear if he builds a wall.

Now, both of us want the wall built, obviously.

I've been screaming for that for

a lot longer than he has.

Right.

And so I hope that he builds the wall.

I just.

Will you accept a fence as a wall?

Yes.

We've already.

Yes.

Yeah.

We have maintained.

We'll even accept the fence.

If he can build 90

5% of what he says he'll build, we'll eat our underwear.

They've even walked back from 100%.

Yes.

Yes.

We're even giving him a 5% leeway.

What about 90%?

No, we do not have to.

How about 95?

How about 95%, except for those places where, you know, that you don't count those places where it's just a business.

He never

made that.

He never made that disclaimer.

Now he is, but he wasn't then.

All right.

So

you want the wall built.

Of course.

You have been a wall advocate.

Yes.

When he was on the other side of the street.

When I was in Houston, I was saying,

I want a wall so high you can see it from space.

Yeah, I remember.

I remember.

Okay, so you're a wall guy.

You know that he is moving forward now.

Yeah, he says they're going to start construction within months.

Okay.

That's what he's saying.

I don't think.

I've just said if he builds the wall, I will apologize to him.

Yes, and in retrospect, perhaps that's what we should have said.

Said, yes.

Because I'm going to hold you to eating

the underwear.

And

I will apologize when the wall is built.

Okay.

Well, we will.

When the wall is 95% of the world.

I've never been so wall, pro-wall in my entire life.

I mean, I was with Pat when I want to see the wall from space years ago.

Now I will go and volunteer time to help build that wall.

I don't even care if there's a big, beautiful door in it.

All right.

Just build the wall.

Just build the wall.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay.

So,

all right.

Now, does it

is there?

I mean, you don't think there's a chance.

How much of the wall do you think he's going to get done?

I, you know,

Obama did what, five percent?

Or there's five percent built so far, something to that.

No, it's it's all done because he still.

I remember him standing at the border and saying it's all done.

It's essentially all done, I think, was his words, which was completely not true.

Right.

But I thought there was 10% or 11% that

was finished.

I think they'll start doing it, and we'll hear the same excuses we always hear.

Oh, there's the terrain in some areas, and plus, there's ranchers.

You can't do the domain along the border.

Indian burial grounds.

It's not aesthetically pleasing.

What?

Mexico really isn't aesthetically pleasing.

Unless it can be a white picket fence.

We can't do it because it doesn't look good.

Shut up.

Just build the wall.

And do the, you know, I don't even care about the wall.

Do the fence, the double fencing with the Border Patrol road.

What they mean?

What they do.

It's been incredibly effective.

What they do in

Israel is easy and effective.

And it cut 95% of attacks.

All you have to do, and not even a wall, not the wall part of it.

Yeah.

They put double razor wire fence.

They rake the center of it.

Then they rake

their side of, what, for about 12 feet?

Yeah.

And when I was over there, Jeff, you were with me.

And we were going up to the Golan Heights.

We were in the middle of nowhere.

And I said, stop, I got to get a picture of this.

And the guy who was our guide said, no, you don't want to stop here.

And I'm like, no, I was stopping here.

Yeah, we're fine.

Just stop here.

And he's like, no, you really don't want to stop here.

And I'm like, what are you fading terrorists?

And he's like, no, the police will will come.

We're halfway up.

And we're in the middle of nowhere.

We hadn't seen a person in

30 minutes.

And the police would somehow appear out of nowhere.

We got out of the car.

I took pictures of it, and they were on top of us.

Seconds.

What are you doing?

What's happening?

Back away from that, please.

And

yeah, they were there.

They were on it.

They came out of nowhere.

We were

within five minutes.

Yeah, I mean, we were in an automobile, fortunately, that had Israeli plates.

Yes.

And our guide was from Israel and Israeli, so it saved us.

It helped.

But he said we would have been in real trouble had it just been us.

And they go, and every night they check the sand because it's all raked.

And they rake it.

So if there's a footstep anywhere, they see it.

Wow.

I mean, it's amazing.

And it wasn't that expensive.

I mean, it was just two really big fences with razor wire and warning signs all over it.

Don't stop your car.

And dumb people

don't necessarily find right.

And how worth it is that?

It's so worth it.

But you don't want to know who's coming into the country?

Of course you do.

Of course you do.

Of course you do.

So

you could build that.

And I would be fine with that.

If it was smart, I would be totally fine with that.

Mexico is not going to pay for it.

No, and I'm willing to pay for it.

I don't know why he had to throw that part in.

I don't know why.

Because it was a...

It's not reasonable.

It was a

F you.

Yeah.

It was an extra log on the fire, an F you.

And

you heard what he was talking about with ABC.

Here he is with ABC.

Now, listen to the way he talks down

to ABC News.

Are you going to direct U.S.

funds to pay for this wall?

Will American taxpayers pay for the wall?

Ultimately, it'll come out of what's happening with Mexico.

That's an interesting answer because ultimately, because the answer to the question is yes, taxpayers are paying.

And I'm not saying I'm opposed to that.

If you can build the wall, build it.

I'm happy to pay for that.

It's our responsibility.

It's our responsibility.

But the answer is yes, and he won't answer it.

Well, because we said during the campaign.

You're not going to get Mexico to pay.

You're not going to get Mexico to pay for it.

What he's talking about is he'll pay for it through trade barriers.

Right.

Well,

if you are jacking the price up and what's going to happen is...

Actually, we pay for that.

You think Mexico is.

No, I know that.

I know that.

But

in his way, they're paying for it.

It's passed on to us, so we do pay for it in a very direct way across everything that we get from Mexico.

But

that was his way

of getting around it.

What he's going to do is he's going to scare, he's going to play the 35%

tax on everything that comes.

Okay, maybe 20%.

Okay, maybe I don't know.

He'll negotiate and he'll get a

NAFTA deal that maybe is a better trade agreement some way or another.

And he'll say, well, they gave us this, and that's worth a billion dollars over the next 10 years.

So they paid for it.

That's probably how it'll happen.

If it does happen, that's the only way it will happen.

We're going to be starting those negotiations relatively soon.

Really?

And we will be in a form reimbursed by Mexico, which is

a form.

Yeah, absolutely.

100%.

So the American taxpayer will pay for the wallet first.

All it is is we'll be reimbursed at a later date from whatever transaction we make from Mexico.

Mexico's president said in recent days that Mexico absolutely will not pay, adding that it goes against our dignity as a country and our dignity as Mexicans.

He says well

they're not paying david i think he has to say that he has to say that but i'm just telling you and trump has to say that yes

there will be a payment it will be in a form perhaps a complicated form

and you have to understand what i'm doing is good for the united states it's also going to be good for mexico okay so so that's the first part so he's saying in a form

well It will give the Mexican president a chance to say, I didn't pay for the wall, because he didn't.

He's just negotiating a trade deal.

I didn't pay for the wall, and it will give Trump a way to say, See, I paid for the wall.

No, you didn't.

You just spent all the savings we just got from your trade deal.

And because we're paying more at the grocery store for everything that comes from the

paper, we're paying for the wall double because our taxes went up to pay for it initially, and now we're paying for it again at the grocery store.

If he does

the trade barrier, right.

We are excluding certain countries, but for other countries, we're going to have extreme vetting.

It's very hard to come in.

Right now, it's very easy to come in.

It's going to be very, very hard.

I don't want terror in this country.

You look at what happened in San Bernardino.

You look at what happened all over.

You look at what happened in the World Trade Center.

Okay, I mean, take that as an example.

Are you at all concerned about that?

Are you at all concerned it's going to cause more anger?

Okay, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.

Okay.

How do you answer that, Pat?

Because I agree with everything Donald Trump just said right now.

We have to do something.

We have to have better vetting because anybody's coming in.

We don't know who's coming in.

This is all reasonable stuff that we all agreed on after 9-11, and they never did it.

We have to change the way we work because I don't want another 9-11.

We don't want that to happen.

Now, the question is, are you afraid, are you concerned that it will cause more anger?

How do you answer that, Pat?

I say

I'm not worried about that right now.

I'm worried about securing the country.

I would say I'm worried about

securing the country.

And of course I am, because people will use anything

to stop us from closing up the obvious holes.

to bring that that they're using to bring in bad guys to america But they will know.

We're not that country.

We don't round people up.

We don't do those things.

Listen to how he's answering and see if this just adds more anger.

Muslims around the world.

There's plenty of anger right now.

How can you have more?

You don't think it'll be a problem.

David.

David, that was.

I know you're a sophisticated guy.

The world is a mess.

The world is as angry as it gets.

I'm going to cut the interview right there.

Well, you think this is going to cause a little more anger?

The world is an angry place.

All of this has happened.

We went into Iraq.

We shouldn't have gone into Iraq.

We shouldn't have gotten out the way we got out.

The world is a total mess.

The world is a mess, David.

He sounds like Alec Baldwin.

I know.

So if you're sitting out all this,

he's worried about...

No, I'm not worried about it.

You can't get more angry.

I can guarantee you that David was more angry.

Yeah.

By the way you just answered it, David's more angry.

I don't know how to,

I don't know how if the press won't admit their own problems

and Donald Trump loves to humiliate them, I don't know how you solve this.

We have two kids in school who are arguing and neither one of them will bend.

It's not a good,

it's just not a good scenario.

We need an adult to stand in and say, yeah,

yeah, I am concerned because look at what happened over inauguration weekend.

I hadn't even done anything.

You can answer that that way, but say, but add,

but we've got

enough problems in this country with the wrong people getting in that to me it's worth the risk.

And that's what I'm that's what I would mean by.

Look at the problem this weekend with the hatred on the streets.

I hadn't done anything.

That's because both parties are ratcheting things up to get to get us at each other's throats.

But I know that the American people, both the Democrats and the Republicans and everybody, they want to be safe.

And we're going to take common sense steps to make sure that we're safe.

These are just the things we all agreed on since 9-11.

That's all I'm doing.

How does that ratchet?

That doesn't give anybody anything to yell about, does it?

Now, this gold line:

within four hours,

imagine, within four hours, 86% of American currency would be invalidated.

What would you do?

86%

of the currency is no longer any good in the next four hours.

You hear that announcement on the air.

That's what happened in India.

By the way, you have four hours to take care of this.

In four hours, 86% of everything you have will be worthless.

Imagine the panic.

Now, this is what in Davos they were saying the United States needs to follow India and invalidate 86% of our currency.

And believe me, when it happens, it will happen that fast.

Well, what followed was absolute chaos, mile-long lines, ATM machines that

hadn't been recalibrated for the new 2,000 rupee notes, banks that ran dry before midday,

panic-induced hoarding.

You know the people people who relaxed?

The people who had gold on hand.

Gold doubled in price overnight.

I'm telling you, this is going to happen all around the world, and it's going to happen when there is a bigger panic going on of a market crash bigger than 29 and 33.

I want you to call Goldline now and receive their free report on the Cashless Society.

This is real.

And it's coming.

Yeah, they do.

They do have this coming to them.

They've got this coming to them.

I'm going to share something that happened with the New York Times yesterday coming up in a few minutes.

And the problem is, you're going to agree with it.

You're going to like it.

You're going to like it because I like it.

I like it.

Right.

I like it.

One thing you can say about Trump and the administration,

they don't take any crap

from anybody.

No crap.

And that includes the media.

And it's so nice and refreshing to see because

Bush took non-stop crap from them and the Democrats.

And

we were like, Donald Trump.

Can you fight back, please?

Donald Trump

is the Donald Trump is the Twitchy Eye cowboy.

Yeah, he's he's changed the game so much,

they're so off-kilter, they don't know what the hell he's gonna say, they don't know how to react to it,

they just don't have any idea how to react because he doesn't act like

you're supposed to

help him like that.

So, we're we're gonna share it next.

Hello, America.

Hey, Media Matters says it's secretly working.

Listen to this sentence.

Media Matters says it's secretly working with Facebook to fight fake news.

Oh my gosh, there's not a single problem that could possibly come from that, right?

Not one.

And what happened with the Trump administration and the New York Times?

All on the record.

We begin there right now.

I will be my drum.

I have made my choice.

We will overcome.

Cause we are one.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

All right.

You're going to love this, and it's going to feel really good.

The Trump administration walked into the New York Times and met with the New York Times and went on record.

Now,

the guy who said this is

a very bad guy, in my opinion, Steve Bannon.

He is a self-declared

Leninist,

saying that he is not a Marxist.

He doesn't agree with the ideology, but he agrees with Lenin and the way Lenin handled the revolution, that he burned everything down so he could start over again.

So you have to know that is his political ideology to burn the system down.

I don't think that's a good idea.

But here's what he said, and it's going to feel good.

Here's what he said to the New York Times.

He started with: the media should be embarrassed and humiliated and keep its mouth shut and just listen for a while.

Then he went, stop, stop.

Absolutely true.

Absolutely true.

They should be embarrassed and humiliated and they should listen.

They should listen.

They should get out of their own circles

where they just are just in an echo chamber and listen.

He went on.

I want you to quote this.

That's what he said.

The media here is the opposition party.

They don't understand this country.

They still do not understand why Donald Trump is the president of the United States.

That's true.

True.

Except for the opposition party, although they have presented it.

They act like this.

They act like this.

They should act like it.

When they didn't with Obama.

They were the ally of the Obama administration.

They did everything they could, including putting halos over his head when they took pictures, to make him look good.

They excused every bad thing.

They ignored every stupid thing.

They made the Tea Party feel like they were terrorists while they ignored Occupy Wall Street, actually trying to pull off terrorism.

So, yeah, that feels good.

Yeah.

It's like, shut up.

All right, so it feels good.

Yes.

How do you expect them to react?

Oh, especially when he says, I think they'll shut up.

Listen.

When he says, I want this on the record.

Yeah.

Okay.

He's not telling them.

He's saying, I want you to tell everybody I said this to you.

There's nothing wrong with going into the New York Times and saying that because that's pretty much what I said to them in a nice way.

You guys don't understand the damage you did.

You don't understand it at all.

You don't understand that

you are perceived as

an enabler for this administration and an enabler for Hillary Clinton.

Whether you believe that to be true or not doesn't matter.

It's the perception in half of the country.

Now, I had a great exchange with them.

Do you think Steve Bannon did?

Oh.

And do you think Steve Bannon is going...

Do you think anyone left there

thinking anything but that arrogant son of a bitch?

Absolutely.

Now, here's why I say this.

Do you remember when the administration,

because I was there, when the administration would call Fox News and read them the Riot Act?

Who the hell do you think you are?

You've got Glenn Beck on the air saying this and this and this.

How dare you let me tell you what we're going to do to you?

Gee, did that make things

better

or worse?

When they said, We're going to boycott you, we'll destroy you, when Soros came out and said, You're going to stop, did that make it better or worse for them?

Did that slow me down and make me go, oh now, wait a minute, maybe Maybe I'm wrong.

Maybe they're not such bad, evil people.

No.

It fueled the fire, for sure.

It fueled the fire.

So he's throwing fuel on the fire.

If you wouldn't have said, I want you to quote me,

if you would have said that and said, look, guys, you don't get it.

You really don't get it.

I was talking to a person on the left,

works for PBS.

Didn't know of this individual until recently, until a friend of mine happened to be talking to a friend of theirs,

and they were having this kind of conversation about how much hate there is, and

what's the media doing?

And I don't know.

And one of them whispered,

you know,

at Glenn Beck.

I mean, have you heard what he's saying?

Yes, I have.

And you know what?

Some of my colleagues are starting to say,

maybe we should listen.

And my friend, who didn't ever tell them that he was friends with me, said,

you know what?

I happen to know Glenn quite well.

And the individual said,

I want to talk to him.

So before I got on the air today, I had about an hour conversation with somebody who is

really good, really, really good.

And the conversation was,

what are we doing?

What are we doing wrong?

What is happening?

This is how I perceive how we're being perceived.

Yeah, you're right.

They hate you.

And here's why.

And this individual said some stuff to me, and I was like,

will you ever say that out loud in public?

No.

Said,

yeah, that would probably cause me a lot of trouble, but that probably would be good, wouldn't it?

And I said, yes.

If someone heard someone of your stature say,

you know what?

We don't,

we're missing the point.

We did this, this, and this, and that was our part in it.

We were excusing things, and we shouldn't have.

I said, my audience would hear you say that.

My audience would say, holy cow, there's somebody honest.

And you would at least have credibility.

And if the press would say those things right now, you could restore your credibility if you backed it up with action.

It's the Riaz Patel factor.

Just acknowledge that, you know, you've had a part in all of this.

Don't blame everything on Glenn Beck or the right.

Acknowledge you've had a part in this.

So I was talking to the BBC yesterday.

I'm doing interviews with the BBC

because

they're the most honest journalists I've found so far.

Really?

Yeah, I'm amazed.

I'm amazed.

Every time I've done something with the BBC, I think they start out with an agenda, but they are actually listening and they don't end with an agenda.

And I've gone and I know what time they present this at the first time.

And so I listen, I go online and I listen to hear how it was presented, the wraparounds.

And the last one I did, the commentator was saying, one commentator is saying, we're getting a lot of pushback because why would you have this guy who is so clearly

a volatile individual, blah, blah, blah.

Why would you promote him?

And the woman I talked to said, you know,

you could say that,

or you could just listen to what he has to say, and it might change your mind.

Powerful.

I've had three interviews like that now in the BBC.

They're, because they're not connected to us, they're not defending a space.

You know what I mean?

They're not defending the Democrat or the Republican, and at least right now.

And when we get, when we find some people like that here in America, and I'm starting to find them, things will change.

This individual told me today, they said, privately, not in big groups, but privately, many of the journalists are starting to say,

we really screwed this up, didn't we?

And you know who it's being led by?

Millennials.

The old guard.

Millennials in the media?

Yes.

The old guard

is still trying to protect their turf and still trying to deny.

And the millennials are coming in and going, guys,

you were defending Hillary Clinton.

How could you possibly have defended Hillary Clinton?

Well, because Hillary, yes, she was flawed, but blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

And the millennials are just saying, okay, whatever, but that's not the way our generation sees it.

And it's starting to crack

inside.

I hope that's true.

Good.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I hope that's true.

I mean,

you would think Britain would also, you know, being

socialist?

Yeah.

Yeah.

But also being a close ally of ours.

And they see Trump taking steps like restoring the Winston Churchill statue to the White House.

To the White House.

No, the question I had yesterday on the BBC,

the question was, who's their prime minister that's coming over?

May?

Daniel coming today.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So they said,

should she, what would you advise her?

Should she

go in, work with Donald Trump,

and connect where she can?

Or should she set an example and say he's been shameful on this, this, and this, and we don't agree with it?

But

and I said,

I don't think you can, I don't think any world leader would be wise to do that.

I wouldn't dare tell your prime minister how to behave.

Another country coming in and lecturing is.

Remember how mad you got when Barack Obama did that about your Brexit?

Right.

Yeah.

And, you know, beyond that,

to judge, to judge Donald Trump on how he ran his campaign,

if you're going to talk about the campaign, you have lots to say.

But he's been in office now, what, five days?

Yeah.

Talk about what he's doing now.

If there's differences on policies now, you'd say stuff.

But what he did then and what he's doing now as president,

that's what the prime minister should be concerned with, is what deals is he doing now.

And how'd that go over with him?

Did they agree?

They agreed.

I mean, I think so.

I mean, they did.

It's interesting to see how she handles this question.

They're calling her the new Margaret Thatcher.

Are her politics like that?

I don't think so.

Because I have not.

You know, our election was going on at the time they kind of made their transition.

I wasn't paying that much attention to that.

Yeah, no, she didn't.

So I don't know that much about her.

Yeah, they're saying that she's

Donald Trump-ish in a way, that

she's an up, you know, a,

I don't remember where I read this,

but I didn't get this impression from the BBC

that she was a candidate that kind of came up through kind of protest.

I don't know if that's true at all.

I read that.

Protest against David Cameron policy?

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't follow it.

Yeah, I don't either.

But I saw somebody else said that she was the Margaret Thatcher to Donald Trump's Reagan.

And I thought to myself,

okay,

probably wrong there.

Probably wrong there.

Now this.

After a long day, what are you looking forward to doing tonight, Pat?

Let's see.

The movie, right?

Oh, tonight we're going to go to a movie.

Right.

Yeah.

No, I'm looking forward to sleep.

If you have a subpar mattress, a good night's sleep will be hard to get.

You spend a third of your life sleeping.

Think about how much money we spend, how much time we spend in our car,

and how much money we spend on our car.

We spend a third of our life on our mattress.

We go into a store, we spend maybe 10 minutes laying on it in our clothes, not able to tell anything.

We buy it, and then we're like, yeah, it's fine.

And then

we sleep on it for 10 years.

That's nuts.

Casper mattress is the perfect mattress.

Welcome to the program.

We're going to do the Obamacare thing, or do you want to start with the

school?

Yeah, let's do that because it's probably a little shorter than the Obamacare discussion we need to have.

But parents

are a little concerned with administrators at Highland Hills Middle School in Georgetown, Indiana.

I mean, this is right in the center of the country.

Right.

Right in middle America.

Yeah.

School-issued worksheet intentionally put a positive spin on the militant and

often violent Sharia law.

We're doing this series on the war on women, and one of them focuses on the actual war on women, which takes place in large part

with Sharia law.

The Middle East and Sharia law.

I mean, the things that they do to women is

unbelievable.

Unbelievable.

And to put a positive spin on,

like, for instance, if you've been raped and you don't have four male witnesses who will corroborate your story, you're the one who goes to jail because you've had sex outside of marriage.

Think of that.

Are you kidding me?

That's a war on women.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

That's not entirely true.

Listen to the spin on this guy.

Yeah.

You can have eight women witnesses

or four men.

Right.

Right.

But it does take double the women.

Yeah, because

they have half the value of a man.

Yeah.

Hello.

Well, that's wonderful.

That's positive.

I'm just trying to give you

positive spin that you're going to be able to do.

Look at the way he is presenting this.

All negative.

Four men.

You can also have eight women on your side.

There's another

spin.

You could look at this in a negative way, or you could see it as positive.

There was a woman who went to Dubai

to manage a hotel.

And

she

was raped

by

running a hotel.

She was screaming for it.

By three men, raped

and beaten and had four broken ribs.

And so she went to the hospital.

She made the mistake of telling them about it.

I mean, why would you do that?

And then, of course, she had to spend eight months in jail.

Oh, my gosh.

Then there was the woman who was visiting, just visiting Dubai from Australia, and she went to a bar one night and saw.

Sod whore.

Right.

Right?

Nice.

Right.

Right.

Right.

Right.

I mean, who is going going to a bar?

No women should be going to a bar.

No women should be going to bars.

No.

Yeah, the problem was woman trying to run a hotel.

Right.

Now,

woman in a bar.

Hello.

And she greets a friend with a kiss on the cheek.

Oh, my.

A boy, a boyfriend.

Yes.

Slut.

And so

they have a drink or something, and then she leaves.

She's immediately arrested by the police, and they start questioning her.

Did you kiss person?

Well, no, you didn't.

You never kissed him.

Oh, well,

I gave him a kiss on the cheek to greet him.

She went to jail for a month over a kiss on the cheek.

Okay, listen to the way he's spinning this.

Listen to the way he's spinning this all naked.

It wasn't a year.

She was exactly right.

She wasn't put to death.

It wasn't eight months.

It wasn't two months.

It was only four weeks.

And the hotel lady only had to do.

Do you want

your daughters going into a bar at night kissing some stranger on the chest no i do not that's true a month will teach them so school teachers in in uh indiana handed out the worksheet to seventh graders yeah depicting a 20-year-old woman uh a lima who said she feels very fortunate to live under sharia law wow uh and uh who wouldn't under that kind of circumstance who wouldn't and that's being taught in the united states of america i can't wait till riaz comes down

again.

Yeah, because I want to talk to him the next time, right?

The next time he's coming down to Sharia.

And I can't wait.

Do you know when that is?

Is he coming next week?

No, I don't know.

Soon.

I don't know when.

He's so great.

I really want to talk to him about that because

he obviously, I mean, he's a gay man.

He'd be killed under Sharia law.

Oh, right.

What is how does he deal with that?

That'll be an interesting discussion.

Really interesting.

Back in just a minute.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Mercury.

The Glenn Beck Program.

So I remember talking to Carl Rove.

This is almost a decade ago now.

And

he was talking about Obamacare.

He was talking about universal health care coming.

And he said, if they get any of this through under Obama, he said, you will never

going away.

Never go away.

You will never get it back.

No matter what anybody says, you will never get it back.

And did you notice for the first couple of months, the Republicans were talking about repeal.

Yeah.

Repeal, repeal, repeal.

Then it was Mitt Romney, I believe, that started adding the and replace.

And nobody was talking about and replace it with what?

You repeal it and the free market replaces it.

You're never going to get rid of Obamacare.

And it was the plan from the very beginning.

And because,

how do you stand up to...

Well, you're going to take away health care from 27 million people that now have health care?

I mean, that's going to be their battlecrow.

It already is.

It already is.

And it's all you hear.

You're going to take away coverage from people who are covered.

You know, this is so infuriating.

So infuriating.

Talking to some people over in England, and they were saying about health care.

And that was the argument.

Well, 27 million people, don't you think that's good?

Well, first of all, I don't know if the 27 million is an accurate number.

Second of all,

what we were promised and what we wanted to do was make sure that everybody had access to health care.

Now, everybody in this country had access to health care.

It just had to

be a problem.

Yeah, you just had to go to the hospital and you could get health care.

That was a very inefficient way.

But But instead of fixing that, we said, let's fix everybody's health care.

We were promised that we would save $2,800 per family.

Per year.

Per year.

How many of us are saving money?

How many of us could keep our doctor?

I don't think anybody's saving money.

I think

the cost has gone up.

It goes skyrocketing.

And it's going to skyrocket again this year.

It's gone up for us, and we're not on Obamacare.

Right.

It's gone up for us, and they will not insure us with the kind of insurance I now want for the company.

So, not only could I not keep my doctor, I couldn't keep my insurance, and I can't find an equivalent that is as good as what we used to have.

Even if I'm willing to pay for it, I can't get it.

So, it's insane.

What socialism does, it makes everyone miserable.

Everyone miserable.

And the ones who really get hurt,

the people at the very bottom, they still get health care.

But most likely, a lot of them, because they're not penalized and they don't have any money or they don't care anyway, what are they going to be penalized for?

Oh, I don't have health care.

Well, stand in line for that.

Okay, so the penalty doesn't mean anything, and there is no penalty.

So most likely, if they get sick, they'll still go to the hospital.

The ones who really get screwed are not at the bottom because they get it one way or another.

Up at the top, they don't really get screwed because they'll find a way to be able to buy it themselves, even if they have to pay cash or go someplace else.

The ones who get screwed are the hardworking people in the middle.

And they knew that from the beginning.

They knew people would be screwed.

They knew this thing would fall apart.

And it's going to fall apart under Trump's watch.

Whether he did anything or not, it's going to fall apart.

And I mean, we still get, this is the beginning.

Why do the quote, this is a, here's a post on Facebook in my timeline.

Question, why do conservatives want my daughter to die from an asthma attack?

And it goes on.

Wait a minute.

Is her daughter Ann, because we were talking about Ann the other day that we were hoping dies from an asthma attack, but we may not be the conservatives.

We might not be the right child to die of it.

How outrageous

I'm hearing about the move to repeal Obamacare is starting to feel like the start of a genocide.

It's already started.

I mean, that's what started

of a genocide.

And it's going to happen.

I mean,

that is so pathetic.

This is after Mr.

Trump's presidency.

So, now, how is that reasonable to say that at all?

It's not.

It's not.

But you know what?

But many of us are not being reasonable either with our language.

Look at Facebook.

If you're not reasonable, they won't be reasonable.

And they won't be reasonable because they don't believe you'll ever be reasonable.

And you won't be reasonable because you don't believe they'll ever be reasonable.

So let's just blow each other up.

Right.

Somebody has to be reasonable.

Well, it is true that they will never be reasonable.

I mean, we all know that, right?

We do know that.

That's confirmed.

Listen to Jonathan Gruber, the architect of Obamacare, in this interview he just did.

I'm with.

I thought this law was supposed to help everybody.

This law was never supposed to help everybody, Tucker.

That wasn't the design.

The law was actually explicitly designed first in Massachusetts and then for the nation to leave the vast majority of Americans alone.

People who had health insurance that worked

for the government

were not designed to be affected by this law, by and large, in the near term.

They were hoped to benefit in the long term through lowering costs.

But in the near term, the law was designed to fix what was wrong with our system, which was focused on the 20% of Americans who did not have health insurance that were buying it through a broken non-group insurance system.

And that was the design of the law.

Okay, so let me say that's not all what I heard.

The president at the time,

that is blatantly

provenly false, just with this statement.

It wasn't supposed to affect me.

Then you were lying about the $2,800 that I was supposed to save?

Yeah.

It was supposed to improve every person's life one way or another.

That's right.

So, lie number probably five by now.

At all.

And I was there.

But, okay, fine point.

Let me ask you: this is my sanity test.

Are you really saying there are no victims of this law?

No, not either.

I'm not saying.

So, who are the victims?

Who's been hurt by Obamacare?

Who's been hurt by Obamacare is two groups.

One is the wealthiest Americans, the top 2% of Americans who had to pay new taxes.

Stop.

Stop.

I am at least in the top 2% of America.

Yes.

Yes.

I am probably in the 0.05% of the entire world.

Hasn't hurt me at all.

Doesn't affect me.

Personally.

Nope.

It affects my employees.

But it doesn't affect me.

I don't care.

I get sick.

You have heard Rush Libaugh say this.

I get sick, I pay for it.

I pay for it.

I get sick, I pay for it.

I pay a doctor a lot of money to be basically on call anytime for anybody in my family.

Doesn't affect me one iota.

To have Gruber say it affects the wealthy is an out and out lie.

It does not affect the wealthy at all.

Period.

They do pay a tax, but it's not a crushing tax.

I mean,

you don't even know what it is.

No.

You don't even feel it.

And second is very healthy individuals who benefited from a previously discriminatory insurance market.

So before insurers could kick sick people out.

Well, that's bad for sick people, but good for healthy people.

So if you're a young, healthy person in the market, you benefited from this fact that sick people were excluded.

Obamacare said no, insurers have to behave fairly to insure everyone.

That meant that for some young, healthy people, their premiums went up.

Stop.

Okay.

Really?

Because here's who, because I'm a guy who owns a business and I know how insurance works.

Okay.

Here's what happened.

Our insurance, our insurance company came to us and said, A, your insurance is no longer available.

You were the only one in the country that we could find that had anything like this.

When we tried to put your system in with no deductible and everything else, we put it in, it wouldn't let us put a zero there.

We cannot find anything in that category.

Now,

you also have people that had cancer and had this and had that

last year.

And because of those three people that had a catastrophic problem,

your insurance rate is going through the roof this year.

Okay.

What does that mean?

Just hope everybody stays really well next year.

Did we have to drag it?

I'm sorry.

Didn't he just say that that couldn't happen?

Yes, he did.

Didn't he just say that couldn't happen?

Because it just happened to me and my company.

How is that possible?

If Obamacare fixed that, it didn't fix that.

It's still insurance.

It's still insurance.

I find it so striking that you vilify the groups you say have been hurt.

So it's rich people who are like, who cares about them?

They're horrible.

And then it's healthy people who benefited from a corrupt system.

I mean, do you think there's any sort of decent person who is sort of doing his best who's just been an ancillary damage from this?

Or is it only people who kind of deserved to get what came to them?

I haven't said anything that vilified anyone.

All I did was state the facts of who the losers are.

They're the wealthiest Americans and the people who are healthiest in the market beforehand.

I'm owning that those people were disadvantaged by the law, but let's focus on the fact that they are a small number relative to the people who are benefited from the law.

More than many, many, many more people, many times more people benefit from this law than were hurt by it.

Yet you just want to focus on the small number of people who

had to pay more for their health insurance.

Why do you just focus on that?

Virtually everyone.

Everyone.

Everyone is paying.

The average cost.

The average cost has gone up close now to $3,000 a year.

Has gone up.

up?

The average family.

If you decide that you don't want health insurance, you still get fined on your tax for that.

So the opposite of what they said was going to happen is what did happen.

They said an average of $2,500 savings per family.

It's gone exactly the other way.

It's gone up for the average American.

$2,500 to $3,000.

And that has nothing to do if you're rich, and it has nothing to do if you're

the average person.

It's bad

for the average person.

They don't understand.

No, they refuse to admit

that the way insurance works is it's a betting pool.

A group of people at your company all get together and they place a bet that there will be more of us that are well and don't need any doctors.

And we place a bet that maybe one or two people will get sick, but probably not catastrophically sick.

And so our money will

take care of those doctor visits.

When there's something catastrophic, then the insurance company will come in and pay for the catastrophic stuff.

And the insurance company is taking the bet that there are fewer people that will get catastrophically sick.

It's a wager.

It's a wager.

It's a bet.

So, of course,

if you change the variables, go to Vegas.

If everyone is promised to win,

the bets are going to be very, very high, and the house will not play.

That's why what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

It's just so frustrating.

It's not called guarantee.

It's not medical guarantee.

It's medical insurance.

Yeah, they, because it's called Social Security Insurance.

Jeez, man.

Okay?

What was the insurance part of that?

What was the bet on Social Security?

Why is it falling apart?

You wouldn't live to that age.

Correct.

And most people wouldn't ever receive it.

You wouldn't.

The bet, the insurance part was you're not going to live that long.

But in case you do,

there will be money waiting for you.

That was the bet.

But because the government sees insurance as a guarantee,

it doesn't work.

Our sponsor, this half hour, is simply safe.

We talked about the high-end burglary wing in Washington State, three burglars, 123

burglaries.

In Houston, sheriffs have now arrested 17 men linked to 120 Houston area burglaries.

The tactics are exactly the same as they were in Washington.

A home invasion happens every 13 seconds in the United States.

And in both of these cases, they're doing the same thing.

They're breaking the back window.

They're breaking the little pane of glass that opens up your back door

or they're breaking your sliding glass door.

That's usually what these two burglaries were all about or these 243 burglaries were about.

breaking the window in the back of the house.

That's how they're getting away with all this money.

Millions of dollars with just these two rings.

You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

Mercury.

The Glenn Beck program.

What kind of.

Okay, listen to this.

Listen to this.

This is a medical study.

This is incredible.

Yeah, during a lab test in Northumbria University in Britain,

sports science students were supposed to receive about 300 milligrams of caffeine.

300 milligrams.

That's like

a little more than a cup of coffee.

Now, I want you to understand: this is a medical science team

that is doing this.

Well, they misplaced a decimal.

Dang it.

Oh, no.

Due to a misplaced decimal, two of them received not 300 milligrams, 30,000 milligrams

equivalent of they say 300 cups of coffee

easily fatal.

Easily fatal.

Nobody died in ICU for two days.

Two days.

This is a medical center.

But

the university is sorry.

Yes.

They said they're sorry.

And they had free health care.

Everything's

possible.
