The blaze radio network on demand. Love courage, truth, Glenn, Beck! Ok! So, let's start here: let's that's name the times in life, when you need a tent, can we do that? uh, I think, when you're camping, Boy scout: maybe you need a tent maybe if you're getting married outside you're having, celebration or a party or you're, setting up a circus but that's about the only time that you need a tent the can't that was put up at Berkeley, for the latest protest was totally different, stent, is an empathy tent man.

Doesn't that make you feel all warm inside and empathy tent? I love that we should of those everywhere now, empathy tent. It was designed to give a appose enforces a safe space to flesh, their political disagreements and peaceful empathy tent now. The right wing group Patriot prayer, was speaking on campus and you know when you have a prayer group, you need an empathy tent also probably knew need some armed guards around those people praying so speaking and the leftist group, unlike the prayer group The left is group called, By any means necessary an Antifa showed up. What could possibly go wrong? You've got a bunch of people, praying

and people who follow the idea of by any means possible good, I had a tent there it wasn't long before the representatives from both sides were placed into the tent guys guys guys. Come on everybody into the tent to talk it out. Well, of course, in today's world at Berkeley. Turn to yelling, which turned pushing which turned to fighting: most immediately. The brawling escalated to the point where the empathy, ten toppled over, Police officers had to run to the scene. Four people were arrested, including an activist for by any means necessary. What. Your VON has been arrested. She wasn't She wasn't using any means to get her point across cross. What she

you VON has an interesting profession for an extreme left wing activist. She is a young woody well it a middle school teacher. Now How? How confident do you feel in the future of our country right? She was arrested on suspicion of rioting action and battery this it's, not Ivan's. First arrests and this nonsense really didn't come cheap cute. Get an empathy tent just any place. This Oh test comes after Uc Berkeley, preemptively spent six hundred thousand dollars to insure protest, didn't turn violent. When Ben Shapiro spoke on campus, oh for half a million dollars. Think of how many empathy tents, that money could buy. We live in a world now where apparently people with different opinions can't talk to each other in a civil fashion at all,

We live in a world where it cost six hundred thousand dollars to stop middle school teachers from becoming violent, and even when you spent all that money that doesn't work. We live in a world where amp the tents exist Our inability to We consider it human beings is. Making our world a much more dangerous place. So I came down here today to go to math discussion, an icy, although I have no idea what they're protesting. Why they're protesting or anything like that, and if you look at them it's ridiculous. You got a guy with purple hair light saber talking about Hitler like like it's hard for me to take any of this seriously. The only impact this has on main is that now I have more work to do last minute. 'cause, I could not go to math class today. Wait a minute you had a guy with uh,

lightsaber. And how is he dressed with the purple? Hair he's glad Berkeley is once again shown us. It's not the bastion of education. It's a circus. Which, in the end, makes that tent appropriate after all Thursday September, twenty eighth you're listening to the Glenn Beck program, let's go to the circus. That is the media. There is an error. Is that there is an awesome, awesome clip that will make you feel all warm inside That's all run to the empathy tent for Chuck. Todd, listen to Chuck Todd said about the Ui. Constitution, boy more, where the phrase

christian conservative doesn't even begin to describe him could vary, I'll be your next US senator? Can we stop there and you don't understand just how? What what? What? What exactly does that mean. Where the words christian conservative does even begin to describe him. What does that mean? that's interesting. I think maybe he's trying to say what he's what he's super extra mega doppler their Christian, any yeah like he's over the top Christian, maybe a little too listen to that. Where could Christian conservative doesn't even begin to describe him? I that he's so like he's so extreme on that he's so far down that River RD. Oh, that is all I know. Like you could say, christian Christian conservative could describe a lot of people that way right that don't necessarily talk

all the time about God they might have christian values, they might support generally socially conservative platforms and whatever Hi Roy. He talks about it all the time. Maybe too much yeah, maybe he's thinking about God. Do much. Okay, ready, say: okay, all right, okay, so go ahead, Could very well be your next US senator and you don't understand just how freaked out some folks in the GOP and the White House are about what that means Then you don't know rolling more first off it doesn't appear to believe in the constitution, stop wow. I know this out. I didn't know that. Did you know this when you voted for him, he didn't. He doesn't even believe in the constitution. The huge problem- and it's a it's a huge statement today to make I'm sure chuck- is going to back that up as a threatened. Our rights don't come from government, they don't come from the bill of rights. They come from Almighty God now

It's just a taste of what are very fundamentalist views that have gotten him removed from office twice. Is Alabama chief justice here in a minute hold it just a second night That's just to take no that's a that's a whole meal right there. What he just said: that's not a taste! That's the whole thing! That's Breakfast lunch dinner, dessert snacks, that's all of it. I feel like we need to hear the thing again in context. 'cause, that's an amazing moment. Yeah 'cause, I don't understand what he's saying he doesn't believe in the constitution. Instead, he believes this crazy idea that your rights don't come from government Roy Moore where, praise! Christian conservative doesn't even begin to describe him. Well, be your next US senator. If you don't understand just how freaked out some folks in the GOP in the White House are about what that means, then you don't know Roy Moore first off

it doesn't appear to believe in the constitution as it's written bye. I still come from government. They don't come from the bill of rights; they come from Almighty God. Now, that's just a take Of what are very fundamentalist views that have gotten him removed from office twice as Alabama's chief, okay, so Chuck, could you Chuck. I knew I liked you you've been on the show many times I like Chuck, I think, he's a reasonable nice guy add the smart and guy. He is uh. This is not. Here is the problem with this. Let's say I don't know Let's say Oliver Stone said something like this you're like ok, it's Oliver stone and you know he's a marxist. So whatever ok

uh, you hear somebody like I don't know you know what's your name with the that working what's your Miley Cyrus Miley Cyrus Year, somebody like Miley Cyrus, say something like this and you're like it: smiley, frickin, Cyrus. Of course, you hear a call. Students, say something like this and you're like ok, that's concerning but they're not teaching anything in school anymore. They have an empathy tent. But when you hear Guy who hosts meet the press. Say this week, such conviction. That's terrifying, escalate it one further step saying it with: conviction in a pre written piece, This is not him in a debate off the top of his head, going down the wrong road way, you're, not saying that they were writers. Producers

all the way along that we're reading that script, preparing this material, talking about it in meetings and no one said our guys wear one hundred percent wrong on this? His even close. I just want to point out it's not even close by saying these things you're going to look like the biggest idiot on the planet, because This you've engaged in some sort of revisionist history. Beyond that. It shows completely misunderstand the entire american standard. And maybe we should not assume everyone is familiar with this standard, but your rights come yeah, no problem, God in just a second. I need a moment. Let me just. Can I build an empathy tent in my head for just a second, let me just just for some. I just

It's nice, it's it's! It's not one of those cheap white, vinyl tents, it's as a nice one with the little pointy thing like you know, little flag on top or something but not an american flag. God forbid not an american flag, but just like a little nice air conditioned if you're hot, it's cool. If it's hot outside it's it's it's warm if it's cold outside and there's little throw pillows and maybe rugs place where you can just go and do you feel calm enough now? I do ok, so now chug. Let's talk about this Where do your rights come from? does the US constitution the bill of rights? is that the source of those rights, horror. Does it say in the constitution that

there are more right, but these are just the big ones that we're going to concentrate on that. The government must never violate to document of, let's say, Negative liberties! Is that how you'd? Yes, how you phrase that act like Communist in communist Russia? They had a charter of positive liberties which said These are the things that the government must do our Institution is charter of neck If liberties saying that these liberties cartoon ever be violated the Gov, and can never do these things. So if the Rent is if the document that the bill of rights, the most most game, changing document of all time. If, if

That is the the printing press for rights, made that document a game, changer. Because I just want you to think this through chalk and everybody are we Could you give me some more that empathy tent music just for a second just in case anybody has slipped in somebody new see it? peaceful, it's warm, it's nice, it's comfort, rible! That is nice, yeah there's somebody just like you in this tent, ok and then there's me but to concentrate on the person just like you for a second ok, we got it. Thank you now What made the constitution game changing because the world had had kings. Kings that could just go and just scoop you up and it could scoop you up in the king could say you know what I'm going to drop off his head. Why? I don't have to tell you why wait why? Why don't

To tell me why could you answer that one yeah I'm the king. Yeah, but I, but I knew your what I'm the king you're nothing now? The reason why King Arthur was so great in that legend of King Arthur is because King Arthur thought hey I know better than you let's just all, be together. That was a benevolent king pin you'll notice that King Arthur didn't exist. Ok, that's a legend! He didn't Camelot didn't exist. It was an idea, so the pilgrims came over and they said you know what we only answer to god- and God gives us certain rights, and the government is instituted among men by men to print

checked those God given rights who gave them, God government no God, okay, no, they will start with G and Endo yeah really confusing, and so you can be. You know, because people to have a very short to spend ten just band g o it could be government. I don't know I didn't read the whole world. Okay, so they were. He said those were given by God as if they are not given by God, then they have to be given by man and given by man. Then a man, any man left right upside down, doesn't matter anyway. And can say you know what no I have that right. You don't. That's why the right? You can call it god you can call it the universe. You can call it just a really happy star, a happy place, you can even say, for example, we are,

endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, something you could phrase it that way. I need an empathy tend to be able to hear that kind of language myself, but I stressing you out, stressing me out, I don't feel uncomfortable, I feel unsafe. Ok, there's no difference between feeling uncomfortable with somebody's idea. And feeling unsafe. Let's see having a conversation that where somebody saying something uncomfortable me being raped or beaten now, that's the same I need a safe zone to hear you're unsure, safe language. Still so stop it you call God whatever you want. But you have to understand that if you don't have a god, a higher source other than man, giving right to you every single soul.

Then that means somebody can take those rights away. That was the game. Changing idea of America, there, there's no reason that this was revolutionary at its time. There's no reason if right just came from government because they had always done that every successful business has great talent. But where do you go to find that great talent to help take your business to the next level? The answer is, simple it Ziprecruiter and unlike Jobsite Ziprecruiter doesn't depend on candidates to find you they go out and they find them for you, Eighty percent of employers who posted a job at zip recruiter, receive a quality candidate through the site on the end of day.

You just go to ziprecruiter dot com, slash back that ziprecruiter dot com, slash back Glenn Beck!

Glenn Beck, I like, I think these kind of announcements, so I don't actually feel the full wrath of my wife while I'm standing there, it gives her a couple of hours to cool down but uh. We've been asked to see if we could use our my plane as a cargo plane for Puerto Rico to get supply. Is there an, and so we may be taking our vacation sweetheart in Puerto Rico, but I just want to throw that out real quick. The problem with this is the cargo getting the cargo. There is hard, but then All of the cargo is being left at the airport and the reason why is because they can't find the truck drivers? Try there's no cell phones. No, nobody has a cell phone. What about the truck? where are the trucks and there's no to put into the trucks, so all of the cargo is starting to stack up at the airport. We

team Rubicon going in and we may just be airlifting people over there but we have team the card that is on the ground, now doing an assessment on exactly what we can do to help this is this is kind of like a Marshall Plan kind of thing. The government is really required to help in poor Rico on this one but if you would like to donate, you can go to mercuryone dot, Org orgmercuryone, dot, Org for Puerto Rico Glenn Beck. This is the Glenn Beck program there's a lot going on with N Korea right now and we have Michael Malice, who actually went to North Korea. He's the author of dear reader, the unauthorized autobiography of Kim Jong IL also the podcast you're welcome, which is up on Anthony Cumia, so the platform which is pretty cool, and Michael joins us now. My

Well there there plant, closings now from China in North Korea, there's a new travel ban and- and there is also the the warm beers on this this. This press junket now talking. About what North Korea did to their son from Ohio. Where are we headed? Well that right, but the one beer is because the news has just changed in the last twelve hours. The last time I was the show the point I had made. Is that N Korea then defines what we think tends to keep their hostages safe. Because you want to return the hostage to get the ransom right, auto, warmbier, Alright went on air all these different shows and said he was severely tortured. His teeth were rearranged by plot. Deaf and blind just a horrific portrait, however, as soon as and I'm like. What did I get it all wrong if I did get it

turn it on with N Korea. You have to realize, to paraphrase blind: they use that little Hellman everything they Faselei, including and and uh every word they say so. You really have to kind of read between the lines, the core, he came out and said, the parents were not saying what they saw the corn, said on record. His teeth were fine. There were no evidence of broken bones or recently field bones, and there were no evidence of tour. But they didn't do an autopsy. They didn't external examination. So we have a discrepancy that I frank don't know how to reconcile. Why would I mean see. Here's here's my thought, Michael. When I saw the warm beers on. I thought. Ok, why he is. Why is this coming out now they've? He came home well awhile ago, and I don't I you know I am not one to play in the conspiracies, but if you look at history when

people want to build a case for war? These are the kinds of things that happen that you government kind of pushes it out, and you know you kind of massage uh the idea that you know these are really bad people and we should go to war. Not saying I'm not saying that I did. We don't believe the warm beers I don't know, but that first thought that came into my head If the corner is saying: that's not true. Right where what is happening and he said and of course, for the corner who's. Obviously, a reputable person there's a whole. And for them to stay on. The record were surprised. The parents are saying this. This is at the very least very odd. However, in a sense this is secondary. This you, man was murdered. Young man, was imprisoned. This young man, cording to North Korea, was sentenced to fifteen years hard labor for stealing a poster. He was a hostage

So when you have a nation that takes tourists, invited tourists who have visa, if you have them grabbing p when holding them hostage. This is not regime that recognizes international law and recently, and it's also a regime that does do this an much worse to there people and, and North Korea has admitted that for decades, they've been kidnapping, japanese citizens from Japan and and people from South Korea and keeping them hostage for decades. We think it's to teach people japanese between the two, spice, so this has been going on for a very long time. In fact, in two thousand and one when the japanese Prime Minister visited Pyongyang and they were having talks bilateral talks in hopes of normalizing relationships. The kind that dear leader Kim Jong, IL admitted this in apologized thinking that n Vet, Japan be like oh forget about it's, not a big

bill and the Japanese were gobsmacked, they couldn't believe I got Kim Jong IL was admitting to this in such a cavalier manner and thinking just an apology with you kinda make it all go away. Michael malice, is with his easy author of dear reader. He actually went over and spend time in North Korea and warns that they are a you know, it's it's it's it's not what you think it is. Can you It needs to Donald Trump speech in the UN, backed during the World WAR, two when we were dealing with a crazy dictator named Hitler, Fdr did not call him names or anything else, but the Marx Brothers, and probably most famously early chaplain in something called the great dictator d,

add mock him and the way to get under the skin of a dictator is to mock them. They do not like that done. Trump was was told, apparently by his advisors. Do not lock him at the UN, don't call him names, Donna, did he was. Do you think that was effective for the president in this situation or not I think, of anything smarter to do because their whole pretense in north korea- and they refer to us always fleur the US imperialist, their pretense is that we quaking in our boots because of Kim Jong in Illinois. Just like we had been scared of his father and his grand brother and I had met a refugee, and there was that movie that came out with James Franco and Seth Rogen the interview a few years back and she had said it would be great if N Korea and saw this movie, not 'cause, it's clever or funny. It wasn't because they would see

we are treating him as a laughingstock. Now this is someone who is grand Father allegedly could walk on water literally, you know, they're taught these kind of miracles that go around these leaders, so you have to imagine how those translators have to there's a there's a when you're using tax. You know in in north korean there's a form of life. Which that only the leaders use it said honorific, you can't say his name by himself. You have to say Marshall. Your dear leader, Kim Jong IL so for them to try to translate something so colloquial as rocket it would be like you know. If you are a God and I'm calling you Glenny it's just figure out your head around it like it's just the level of familiarity. Would disrespect. Would the people in North Korea he that well. They wouldn't know what to do because, on the one hand, you wanna say that look president it's a lunatic he's. You know, he's rattling,

favor he's being aggressive. On the other hand, it would be very hard for them to even repeat that he's using such a vote, Your language vulgar in in a broad sense to refer them So on the one hand, oh, my gosh she's DIS, respected. But, let's suppose let me use an extreme example. If other country used A4 letter word in reference to President Trump. The media wouldn't know how to report it with a sense of the word. Do you say it? If you're saying it's, it's it's horrific. So this is the quandary he forced Can you put themselves in, and this is him showing them? I'm not scared of you an I don't think. There's someone worthy of respect. Talking to Michael Malice, Michael there's, a couple of interesting developments, one of which

One of the things we've been trying to do with N Korea is to get them to somehow have some pressure put on them from China. China is now announcing that they're closing all n korean owned companies in their country. Malaysia has a new travel ban with N Korea. Are these things actually coming coming to fruition? Finally, yes, these all wonderful. If small developments- and we can see the consequences in this way, I think it was last week or earlier this week, the n being foreign Minister had said. I mean this was this was reported. An escalation when it was a deescalation escalation. He had said that President Trump has effectively declared war and that If there's any bombers in North Korea shoot them down right. Let's look what happened

July they're saying we are going to bomb Guam. We got four missiles ready in August, we're going to attack Guam now they're putting words in President Trump's now saying you are declaring war where the victims were the good guys, you're the bad guys there there's a difference between I see you, I'm gonna go to your house and burn it down. And if you come my house, I'm going to shoot you in the second neighbor might be a crank. I just won't go to his house. The first ones the problem and that being how they their rhetoric has changed. It has been from we're going to attack you too you come here, we will we will defend ourselves, which is definitely ever treat, even though the press treats as escalation so then? What does that mean? Michael, that's, really good news. What does that mean for future. What's coming our way, the one of the best things about how The shop is dealing with N Korea, and this is also come out in the reports. Most Americans do

let's make a president Trump write an if you can, if you are from the country, try to explain going from President Obama, President Trump, these two men for even forget their politics, just in terms of personality and style, are as different as can be, and President Trump has no political back, whatsoever to kind of read between the lines right, so N Korea doesn't know what to make of him. In terms of negotiation is an extremely effective technique having in your back pocket, because you don't know what this guy is capable of. So you had, better put all your money on diplomacy and negotiation, because if, if he turns out to be someone capable of pulling the trigger N, Korea has explicitly repeat said they know if you disaster for them. So if you were looking at the doomsday clock and it's three minutes to midnight the last time we talked uh Where do you put the? Where do you put the hands? I would put it to four. In my,

canyon, because again, if now, if you have all the Un Voting against N Korea, if N Korea is a p going to the international community if they're changing their tune and are trying to dignified and legalistic. This is someone who is okay, we took a wrong turn somewhere Michael Great NEWS. Thank you so much. You really need to read Michael Mouse's book about North Korea because it's not only really informative and all true. But really funny it's written as a first person biography. Of Kim Jong Ill and but facts and in her true, you know where he says that he remembers the day he was born like it was yesterday and he remembers every detail of the day of his birth. He, Lee told the country that it's available everywhere

We save continues to amaze me amazed their customers, they make great safes, but they also are now making it really easy to own one. Now Libertysafe dot com.

I want to thank you so much for supporting us and not only today, but over the years we are in the really

doing some uh dynamic, think on the future of the media in its entirety I don't think people really understand. I I like a bunch of people out into the hallway. Yesterday we have a big chalkboard, and I said I just want you guys to know They help me think things through here a I ink for a long time that The world is being changed and all the way down maps, I said you were going to wake up in the maps. Are going to be changed and the infrastructure is being changed, you can either be a part of that changing infrastructure and design it yourself or find yourself working, for somebody else and you're just going to be just going to be in it and I was walking to the Jews some members of the staff yesterday about what's coming in the media, and I said so,

take you to the old west for a second. If we look at the wild West somebody It just said this to me the other day. It was maybe that Google at this ethicist to said you know it's it's. The wild west is is the internet is coming to an end and I think they're right. The wild west, what it was you could go out and you could start a town and these towns would pop pop up everywhere. Anne just where people were congregating, so it might be because it was natural beauty or they were resources or whatever, but the train started to be built. The states and the territories started to lobby, get the. In to come to our town. And if the train didn't come to your town, town ended, usually a ghost town Your town was big enough and it was a city

the train would automatically come there if I thought you had to coax the tray to come to be to give you a place or if you were a place that had of water or the coal or whatever they needed to. Keep the train going the We come to you. The wild west was over once The train system was put into place. Because then it wasn't just anywhere the train. Kind of dictated the growth The tracks have been laid and the Text now have been laid over the last six or seven years, they've been laid by Amazon. Google apple. Netflix Hulu. They've they've laid the tracks

and even Hulu is kind of an outpost. It's kind of an f troop kind of out way out in the middle of nowhere, tracks have been have been laid. And I e I'm sharing this with you, because I don't think that conservative media is thing king. This through And it's change right now, in the last three months there has been dynamic shifts and the racks are clearly being laid an are already laid and you can be your little outpost all you want, but telling you

the tracks are already there. How do we get people on that train or near that train, Glenn, Beck. Current trends, Glenn back yesterday and on NBC on Meet the press Daily Todd. Ed this about Judge Roy Moore, Roy Moore, where the is christian, conservative doesn't even begin to describe him I'll, be your next US senator, if you don't understand just how freaked out some folks in the GOP in the White House are about what that means Then you don't know rolling more first off,

doesn't appear to believe in the constitution. As it's written, I still come from government. They don't come from the bill of rights. They come from Almighty God. Now, that's just a taste, what are very fundamentalist views that have gotten him removed from office twice as Alabama's chief So I want you to understand. First of all, this is from meet the press. This is Chuck Todd. This is not just something that he's just saying this is spend, something that has been written put in a teleprompter producers have read, writers have red. Researchers have read an but nobody thought to stop Chuck Todd from making a huge error chuck. Harder than this? I don't know how you been misled, but you are completely wrong, If our rights come from the government, our founders knew then our our rights could be taken away. Entire bill of rights structure The amendments to the constitution are to say

There are many rights out there that come from God. There are many rights that people have. And these are the rights that the government can never ever violate. That's the Premise behind the bill of rights: it's saying that the government issues these rights It's saying these rights belong to the people, and the government can never ever ever violate them No, I don't know how this is become a religious, fundamental kind of issue. Do, you call somebody who holds those views. A religious fundamentalist who should be feared, let me share with you, the audio of another quote, I guess you would call Rick

AEGIS fundamentalist who explained of these rights are. I am all for you and all my God, but name are all prescribed nearly a century and three quarters ago and your name revolutionary Billy always are you doing here around the globe? I believe that the right man get a lot of the debate, but the hand of God, Thursday September twenty eighth you're listening to the Glenn Beck program. That was John F Kennedy

helping people in times of crisis shouldn't ought to be a partisan issue if there has ever a moment when Democrats and Republicans can truly collaborate. You would think it would be working together for something like the disaster in Puerto Rico, but that doesn't seem to be happening right now. These are american citizens. I know that's shocking to people. Wait a minute from Puerto Rico. Yes,. Those are american citizens in Puerto Rico. Just don't have a star on the flag. They have everything else. Last Sunday, Hillary Clint, tweet. It unsolicited advice to President Trump that he should send the USS comfort. Now this is a Navy ship, a hospital ship she said, send it to Puerto Rico. Now these are american citizens. She tweeted this helpfully. Let's take her edit, it says it's a nice gesture turns the Navy was already preparing to send the comfort and

or three other Us Navy ships already in Puerto Rico, working on relief and five thousand active duty US service members are on the ground right now. Thirteen Coast Guard ships are working to fix port San launching search and rescue missions. Hillary, didn't have all of the facts when she pleaded for Trump to quote: send the comfort. The Pentagon discussed sending the comfort to Puerto Rico, is early as last weekend, but decided against it, because the damage puerto rican ports were unable to accommodate the ship because It's so large and because puerto rican government requested help in getting the island sixty hospitals operational instead of sending us a ship, so What did the Pentagon do instead? sending the ship, which would have been a nice photo op,

Pentagon sent a fleet of air Force jets with supplies, generators, an medical personnel to be able to do what the governor of Puerto Rico asked, and that is please help us with our hospitals. Hillary tweet didn't mention any of these things. The president's critics aren't interested in hearing about his actual relief efforts, because his approval rating rose after hurricanes, Harvey and Erma and He can't have that. No, we must destroy him. Priority number one for the left, isn't helping Puerto Rico and, quite honestly,. Priority number one for the right, this were Barack Obama. The same kind of grotesque, political ingan would have churning out this kind of garbage about Barack Obama

they're trying to do is make America think that Donald Trump doesn't care about helping Puerto Rico. It's uh It's like they've already got their main talking point all picked out. This is going to turn to be Mister, Trump's Katrina, President Trump brings a ton of criticism on himself all the time, but this is not one of these times. He said is to be trying to help Puerto Rico and Democrats. If they really cared about Puerto Rico. We should we put our partisan jerseys aside for a little while and see how we can help

you can help to one dot. Org slash hurricane relief, Marjorie want, as in all sorts of stuff, to help in Porter Rico. Is that just I mean that is just getting started. It is a long term disaster there I. You know, look we can help with money and supplies, but it's only part of the solution. Another part of the solution is gay. The government, out of the way from screwing Puerto Rico, like they've, been doing for a very long time with something the Jones ACT. Most people don't know what the Jones ACT even is, but it is this crazy law that it forces ships to come to the United States before going to Puerto Rico,

so if any ship wants to come and deliver supplies from anywhere in the world, it first has to pull into Miami or someplace else and then to Puerto Rico. She is absolutely no, so it makes no sense at all to protectionist measure. That's been in there for a long time to protect the US shipping industry and it's really hurt Puerto Rico, for the disaster, and needs to be repealed. Nobody who knows more about this than Scott Lincicome he's from the Cato Institute and International Trade attorney Ann, when it comes to trade Scotts, the man Scott, can you tell us what the Jones, what the was? What what is the Jones Amendment? Why did it? Why would it first come into play yeah? So The Jones ACT is officially called the merchant Marine ACT of nineteen twenty. It was originally implemented hindering you know around the time of World WAR one and the deal was to bolster american national security,

by insuring a strong shipbuilding industry and a very strong merchant marine. And now again that was in nineteen twenty and what the law does. It requires any shipping, but we knew Esports so say from Jacksonville Port of Jacksonville to Puerto Rico. Or from the port of Houston up to the ne that must be done on vessels that are American built American. American flag. His career conclude that is crazy, right right. So now this now it's about one hundred years old now and uh The of course the national security implications have changed quite a bit. I would think, since that time but we also have now we have one a hundred years of evidence about what the Jones ACT actually does and what we see is that it dramatically inflates the cost of shipping goods particule

play essentials like food and energy. We knew us ports. These costs are, of course, ultimately passed on to US consumers. It so quite ironically, disadvantages american farmers and manufacturers versus foreign imports, which don't have to come from foreign countries on Jonzac vessels which of course are more expensive than foreign vessels, and then it actually harms the US shipping industry We we see that the very industry that the Jones ACT is designed to protect is designed to bolster has actually been sick. Nearly degraded over the last several decades and, in fact, has been found to be Project vessels have been found to be less safe than vessels that are flat,

I therefore incomplete okay, so so, let's, Let'S- let's start here yesterday when we were talking about this on the air, the government was still deciding what they were going to do. If they were gonna. If they were going, repeal ridiculous or suspend this for the time and we were talking about this morning. They did suspend that right. They did say this code this morning, We found out that the president has issued a ten day waiver, which is permitted. Under the Jones ACT so essential play Puerto Rico. For the next ten days. Can The shipments to Puerto Rico can be on any type of vessel, regardless of the ownership or the flag or whatever, that's good, because it's going to feel like this is a ten day problem. Yeah whole Puerto Rico, with all the power be gone in about ten days, should I think ten days will wrap it all up? They won't even have the ports or they won't even have the ports open in ten days.

And so you know the what we found is. Studies have actually looked at the economic harms that the Jones ACT causes to specifically to Puerto Rico. One study found it costs for Rico five hundred million dollars per year, I could get After a billion dollars a year depending on the year up trucks, add found pretty significant harms in terms of inflated shipping costs. Others On the same now, I will defend the Trump administration in one sense, and that is that were really in need of a legislative cure, non executive chair because the law the not highs the executive hand executives, hands requiring them to couch any sort of waiver in terms of national defense. Now you can, of course, the National defense argument here, there's a military base in Puerto Rico, of course, it is uh

american territory at these, are american citizens and so forth. But the fact is that the executive branch can't actually consider any of these costs. Arguments so the fact is, they can't say at least publicly look. This is just imposing ridiculous, unnecessary cost on suffering Puerto Ricans. They just they can't say that instead, they have to make this kind of circular or circuitous. National defense argument. Just because of the way the law is written exactly because the law it was actually the lowest actually tightened up, believe it or not in two thousand and nine, by our wonderful Congress to its actually DHS has to not only ouch its decision in terms of national defense budget. Actually have to get a ruling with respect to sufficient port capacity, insufficient fleet US fleet capacity so again

and it cannot consider how Israelis hang on just a second Scott. Why? What? Why did the DHS under Obama? want this. What what possible? What what we? What were they looking for with the or frame that some ship would come in with a new cars, are ends up being serious. What were they? What were they afraid of what yeah? I don't think they are, but they are afraid of the the the a report by the? U S: shipping, industry and the unions. I think I mean the fact. Is you know, President Trump, to his credit yesterday admitted that the pressure against wave it was coming from the US shipping industry, which is highly mobilized, very effective member able to keep this protectionism in place for one hundred years, they're doing a pretty good job at at playing defense and that you know the reality is that this is classic protectionist politics uh. You know you have traded benefits delivered in the

actually to the american shipping industry and those unions, and these diffuse costs that american consumers typically don't pay which into I even consumers in Hawaii or Puerto Rico or Alaska, who who faced disproportionate harms. So the only time we see this type. Protectionism actually go away or or performed is when you have an intense spotlight on the issue and, of course, a very sympathetic victim, and in this case that's exactly what we have. Spotlight was turned on and the cockroaches scurried away and again this is, as you said, it's been around since one thousand nine hundred and twenty. This is not a trump thing. I think Trump is done. What he can here. But what is more important here is a full repeal of it. For ever it's not just attend a waiver yeah. I need to go away for ever. Tell me if you have If these numbers are the same that you have seen, we have less than a minute Scott, real, quick,

is seventeen billion dollars in the last twenty years, uh that is cost for Puerto Rico. A car thinking, This is not Greenwich CT. Puerto Rico is not have high incomes. A car cost six thousand dollars more in the mainland cost twice as much to ship to Ricoh USA territory than it does to Jamaica. Another country. Absolutely no sense, exactly right, and then you know, even consumers on the mainland supper at one study showed that that we pay an extra ten to zero dollars and fifteen cents per gallon of gas, because the Jones ACT forces crude oil producers in says to actually ship fuel. Oil to Canada to be refined instead of northeastern refiners, because it's so much cheaper, unbelievable avoid John. Thank you. How much Scott! I appreciate it if you want to learn more about this.

Please do. Scott is really the guy to go to with the Cato Institute, but we have to alert our congressmen and our senators this. Got to stop Scotlands he's from the Cato Institute such as well as an international trade attorney, he can follow on Twitter. At Scotland's we'll hear the stories in the news. Good guy uses a gun to protect his family from the criminals and he's the one arrested and actually a you know. I hate to say that you know high and we hear about the stories in the news. We don't you, don't you don't The reason why is because the press does not want to show the good guy with a gun winning So you rarely hear about stories where the good guy is actually taken down. The burglar you just read, rarely hear them. Do hear them when

of when it's in a place in the country where that person is arrested and they are in big trouble. Take the Recent story: USC Ca, member, an army, veteran buddy shepherd military background thought he was before anything. Three armed guys come into his house and put his family's safety in jeopardy. They got a rude awakening because he confronted the three he had a pistol. When the cops arrived. He was outnumbered three to one guess which one was arrested, He was. He is charged with three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly firearm and tossed into jail. The minimum sentence would be three years in state prison. Luckily, body had a: U s c c: a card on him he's a member the moment they got his coal, they jumped into action and they completely shielded him. His family from legal and financial ruin

This is why you need the USC Ca. This is why I urge you to go visit, protectanddefend dot com. You need somebody watching over you, that's what they do get the twenty seventeen concealed in Cary Family Defense Guide from the concealed Carry association, one hundred percent free one hundred four pages teaches you everything you need to know. It's one hundred percent free even comes with an audio version, so you can listen to it on the on the car, but you need someone to protect you. Your first responder who's Watching over you, the Uscca go there now make sure that you can repeat the story that buddy had where he didn't have anything to worry. You go to protect and defend dot com. When you join the. U s c c, a now protect and defend dot com Glenn Beck.

Glenn Beck ad in Texas on the Jones ACT, hello, Ed, welcome to the Glenn Beck program good morning, Glenda Good, to speak with you thanks, sir, for all you've done so apply for all of the hurricane. We can, then, all that, thank you. I I wanted to call and there's a discussion. On the Jones ACT needs to be looked into a lot closer, a little bit more homework in that the Jones ACT is the active actually granted. The citizenship for you, so that you shipped allowed born on the island passed to date. I think it's it remember the date Glenn, but but it's the actual, actually does give us yes, portrayal of that act is is is right, but I I think yeah yeah, it's not the you're right, it's it. We that's a misstatement of the full repeal about it. It is a merchant marine part of that that that affects shipping is your time.

You're right, you're, technically right and we're sorry. We missed stated that, and thanks for clearing that up, but it did is merchant marine part of the Jones ACT, and I think we All agree when I was down in I was done Rico a year ago, I think two years ago and the poverty is just outrageous. And part of it is because they can't dig themselves out of the game yeah good things from America, but they also get a lot of bad things. For instance, unions, They can't they at create enough jobs because of all of the restrictions we put on them, they're already an island. We have to start removing a lot of these restrictions. Do help the people of Puerto Rico back.

This is the Glenn Beck program, so Donald Trump and the Republicans are looking for a win because I don't think people are sick of winning yet and we have now to took tomorrow who is the last day for the Obama CARE repeal it's not going to happen down Trump yesterday came out and said: don't worry, we have the votes to do it next year. I doubt that is true. Why why wait a year but so that is that's off the table. Now we are now looking at a tax plan, can we get this done? I was a little underwhelmed by what the tax plan was, but at least it's a step in the right direction. If we could even get this past. We negotiating it's weird because he's good at negotiating with Kim Jong Young, he just calls him and says I don't care who you are little short rocket man and and

is enough to get people to quake in their boots and get things done with his strategy with the Democrats has been radically different and starting at a place that I wouldn't be happy with. If we ended there, but at least It would be a step in the right direction. Here are the to the plan. So there is a lot of good in there and it's important to note it right is this is not one of those situations are like. I don't know. Is this even better than Obama? Don't you know this is a absolute improvement to our tax system, so it was a wait. Let me let me rephrase aside, so I make myself clear what I I don't like about. This is, if it here, let's just it, let's just say they magically get up- says Chucky Schumer. This we done, but we could do better than this. We can do better than this, however, do Should we pursue this with all of our might yes, but I'm concerned that the margins are so small in some areas that, by the time you negotiate it's it's March

well, it's not nominal, but it's marginal yeah if it started somewhere else and ended here I wouldn't be thrilled, but I would be ok. We got something there. It's the fact that we're starting here does make me nervous, and so there are some good things in the plan. There are so bad and scary things. The good things the corporate tax up significantly we have the highest corporate tax rate in the world. It drops in this plan to twenty percent should be in the lower than that should be ten to fifteen. You want to change the world, you want to really dominate and have jobs come here. Change corporate rate to ten percent yeah and Trump wanted, I think fifteen, so he who's trying to get to fifteen in the campaign there, starting here with twenty now, twenty is right, what you would call competitive a competitive rate. Yes, I with the rest of the world it that the average, I think is twenty two point: five in the industrialized world. So it's slightly less than that, but that's a good improvement. I mean a big one and you shouldn't just dismiss it, it's

for small businesses who we, if it ends at twenty, if it ends right, I'm taking this plan as if that is what you got right right. So we want to compete with the world. We have. We have other costs, we have unions, we have regulation, so we have other cost. You want to compete. You have to come in lower than the rest of the world because Their workers are going to have a health care everything else. It's just you want to be dramatically lower, and I agree with that to push back a little bit on that point, though, people want to do business in the United States. If you have a choice in everything is equal cost people go to the United States because we have a lot of sort of institutional advantages. When it comes to business, we we, we still do things better than the rest of the world. Do the issue is we've been so on competitive for such a long time with these tax rates. This at this moves us into competitive position and it's a real

I would say that you are also now moving into a world that is beginning to be convinced at the highest levels that his best days are behind her. It's true or not doesn't matter perception is reality that America's Madea's days are our best days are behind her that the United States could go unstable. If add instability, if you add the protests and riots on our streets and the instability at all where an army needs to be called up to school, to quash things, will do not want to work in the United States, they'll be looking for someplace else, yeah, that's always a risk. Chris individual rights so the big things that I've already heard. We talked about this yesterday briefly, but I've already heard left commentators make this point, which is, you are the way it works is it by seven different brackets into three the lower

bracket in the old plan was ten percent. The low bracket in the new plan is twelve percent so Obvi. Silly to anyone who's. Just looking at this at a surface, my gosh there raising taxes on the poor They raise taxes on the poor and they've cut taxes for the rich. It's the talking point already so When you actually look at this, it's not true at all. It is not going to affect basically anyone in that way. It is going to because what they're doing is they're raising the stand deduction there, doubling it in this plan. Again when you're getting into the weeds when you start talking about this, but basically, if you take the standard deduction, you're, not you're, not going to be paying taxes on the entire first brackets or your first bracket rate will really be zero, but the way that it's worded is going to easilly allow people to claim their raising taxes on the poor. This is these are the way that- and this is some of this- it's not all clear here- it's not all wins for As far as lower rates. Listen to this the ten percent rate,

so twelve and the fifteen percent right that currently is out. There also goes to twelve percent, so slight cut for the second bracket. Sites like race for the bottom one, but the standard deduction is going to take a lot of that out for most people anyway when it gets a little higher. It's interesting, the twenty five percent bracket that currently exist stays the same goes to twenty five, the twenty eight and bracket you're talking about people making about one hundred thousand dollars a year. Now those people go from twenty twenty five so slight decrease. Now the people who now we're up to, let's say two hundred thousand dollars. Those people actually goes up. That bracket goes from thirty three to thirty five, the current thirty five percent bracket, stays the same, does not go down thirty five to thirty five. Those are people making about four hundred thousand dollars and the very top bracket. It goes from three nine point, six to thirty five. This is getting publicity, as this is their way to say that rich people are getting the tax break now. It's interesting, because your whole way up there really that to get that tax break you're, going to make a lot of money.

And even then you're not really going to get it. 'cause they're going to take away a lot of these deductions, however, There is a planet x in this plan, Does it have a fiery tail? It does have a fi retail. You river plan, an axe. It was going to destroy the country on September, twenty third and all that's not what he said, but the yes I was going to destroy the world right. Has a big planet was gonna, come by and yeah and seen it yet got esses unnamed planet? I think we know the plan, but now there's a planet axe right. What's the planet x here you might think you know the brackets, because there's three brackets, however, written into this plan. Oh in the plan, oh boy is one slash four bracket Fourth bracket wait! Do I want to open the fourth bracket bracket, looks like having an ok day, I'm having a great day, but I'm having an ok day so you're going to love this one, because bracket X is a bracket that can be instituted negotiations above the top rate

so right now the top rate is thirty. Five percent, but with bracket x the top rate could be anything higher than thirty five. So what they might, what they are. This is actually very similar to what Steve Bannon was was floating out there before he left, which is take a number for wealthy people and make that the the kind of billboard number make that higher so raising it from thirty nine point, six into the 40s, and maybe the 50s Rouge, that thing through the ceiling, so you can say, oh well, you know what we not we look at how to make it a million making a million dollars we're going to make it sixty percent, yeah and so a jack those people up to some rid He was rate that is so, that is in the plan as a possibility. It's not a concrete in the plan, but it's there. You know who did this oh come on, come on by Satan, close Wilson,

This is exactly what Wilson and FDR did NFL right now is is close to cutting may have actually been. He is president of L. Currently, putting aside all the craziness engulfing our world right now, we all need to strive to become more self reliant, because you just don't know when the world is going to take a turn for the worse. The best time to prepare is before, and urgency when time is on your side, which it act today and secure your family's future by being prepared. I trust my patriot supply with my food storage and I would rate highly recommend that you do the same. These are the people that you know my grandmother used to uh can stuff

my grandmother, my aunt and my mom, and then eventually my sisters. I wish I would have you know I wish I would have learned how to do it myself. I have no idea we'd all be dead in a week. If I had a can something, but that's the way we used to have food storage and we did it because you know everybody in my family was working stiff and you never knew. If you know somebody's going to lose their job or times were just going to get tough and times around my house were tough, a lot and so would go down into our food pantry and we would grab something from you know the fruit seller and bring it up treat supply is the modern way of doing this. Now they have one hundred and two serving survival food kit. They had healthy at last up to twenty five years, and it's like less than a dollar per serving you get breakfast lunch and dinner shipped to your home for free call, one eight hundred two hundred and seventy one sixty three or order online at prepare with Glenn dot com Prepared America is Strong America, and that

is my patriot supplies mission, so call eight hundred two hundred seven thousand one hundred and sixty three or prepare with Glenn dot com Glenn Beck. You know everybody, everybody has an opinion and. I don't think anybody's opinion is more valuable than anybody else's. I've been doing this for forty years and Still is remarkable to me that people you don't care about my opinion, 'cause. I barely do and as I get older the more I realize yeah as another guy's opinion and now now that everybody has Facebook and twitter and publisher you.

This is the power, that each of us have now. Just ten years ago. If you wanted your voice to be heard. You really had to do something I mean you really had to You you, you had to go through and network and get jobs and get on the air and then make that a success and. Yeah. If you wanted to publish a book, you have to go to Simon and Schuster. Some like that he'd have to go to these crazy. I mean it's crazy should go to these meetings with me, crazy meetings. These check can take New York Board rooms. He have to do any of that. Now. And so, while we have, we have made all was that meaningless. All those hoops that you had to jump through we have found so many people with different opinions now that nobody, they wouldn't have been able to have a voice Anna

really good. But everybody has an opinion and, and so devalues or no it puts into perspective how much somebody's opinion is worth. No more than somebody else whoa is worthwhile is perspective because. That's hard to find that takes a lifetime and Times it takes just standing in another place, everybody can view an event one way, but there might be Zapruder might be somebody who standing in. Another location with another angle and they

capture something that nobody else saw. That's perspective. I think that's what we should all be seeking. Not more opinions, I read a I read an article. I read an article from somebody who is really important to the conserved movement. Here's Here's the here's, the title. As I lay literally dying politics, doesn't matter. I write this with multiple blood clots. Currently, in my lungs, By the end of the day, tired and out of breath, my chest is tight.

Thankfully this go round is not fatal, but a year ago I was rushed to, and I see you with my blood oxygen level steadily declining but below a hunt but below ninety percent, and my lungs were slowly suffocating me and his nurses were sticking needles in my arms and pumping me full of fluids. Doctors were calling my wife to tell her that they thought I had lung cancer. I have to tell you that American All it takes really doesn't matter when you have kids and you're dying. He begin to seriously ask yourself: what do you want Kids to know if you're gone If I would have died, my kids would have learned everything about me from Google. They would only know what people who hate me think about me. That was far more worried about my kids relationship with God and their mother than about Paul takes with the political flight fight of the day American.

All it takes today? is such a small ball gutter politics. It's the steaks, are so small that the fights are all that matters. I don't want my kids have any part of that. Yes, there are later, that do matter. But there are many more fights you think matter then actually do. Having very nearly died, my priorities have taken more than a small shift in the last year. I'd rather be preachy then blogging my faith is way more important to Maine. My kids faith is way more important to me than my own faith. The or the priority. That's I would pray, for you and for me that we find that perspective that Erik Erikson found.

Without getting the diagnosis that he had received Glenn Beck so you're doing some business travel we've all done it. We've all dealt with the ridiculous nonsense. It's associated with it, you know the picture I saw on twitter word. The someone had put their bare feet in between the seats on the arm rest of the people in front of them. Can you imagine that that's That is I'd, go crazy. All that stuff.

Love courage, true Glenn Beck, two things happening in the world right now. One is create chaos. We've been watching this for fifteen years have been warning you that our enemies are going to do everything they can to create chaos. Chaos,

This is for, if you believe in the body, the only way the Marty returns, you watch the world in blood, an create chaos that's number one just doing it. Some in the Middle EAST are doing it and, quite honestly, some people here in the United States are doing it. The second thing that is happening is divide and conquer. You've got to divide America. House divided against itself, cannot stand, and it's happening right now under our nose, and many of us are participating in it without even realizing it. Chaos is the name of the game and we're falling for it over and over and over again now, let's this story. Facebook revealed this month that Russia purchased one hundred thousand dollars worth of political ads during the twenty sixteen campaign. Now this is the way it's been reported and you think All of these were pro trump, but they weren't. Yesterday the details emerged an it's a funny thing when you start looking at the details, how it completely changes, a story. What

was it that Russia was actually doing who were they actually supporting the answer it everyone and no one. Anything that would stir up chaos and anything that would divide they were for in two thousand and fifteen russian Facebook ads had supported an condemned black lives matter? No, now listen to this, some of the ads were pro muslim and pro immigration. The very next day those same groups. Would post negative Muslim adds an anti immigration rhetoric. They care Trump Russia, Hillary, the right, the left there. All sides.

What we're doing now is we're separating ourselves we're saying you're just trying to make this about Hillary Clinton you're just trying to make this about Donald Trump. No, no, No it's about chaos. Hen, divide and conquer I think the Russians actually cared who became the president of the United States. In terms of heads of state, the president of the United States is one of the weakest authority figures in the world. Ling Father's made sure that was possible and it was on purpose. The Russians know this they're, not afraid if the president, there Age of the american people, the american people, you do know the out of all of the russian plans of invasion of the United States during the cold war, there was only one place. That was not a part of a plan. All of the plans

we can come over the polar cap. We can bomb them. First, we can come through the oceans. Where were we going to do it? there's only one place that they said we're not going there, and that is Texas. Why? because they knew Texans were united, Texans also were armed and they knew Texans would fight to the last man. Because they were united. So the Russians are doing nothing other than dividing us, regardless of who becomes president. Now. This goes a lot deeper than just the election. As early as last week, russian intelligence we're using the NFL Tacony controversy to continue their chaos campaign, send Lankford of Oklahoma said in a hearing yesterday that the Russians were talking taking both sides of the argument and talking out of both sides of their mouth. They

But they have taken to social media and they are Taking a knee linking arms standing up for the veterans make sure you take a knee and stand against Trump make sure take a knee and stand against a racist America, all their doing is flaming the divisiveness? They need us to be pitted against each other played like a fiddle. And while the collusion narrative continues in the media of Intelligence services actively trying to split us apart. The Russians have been doing this for decades but never on the scale like this, because they've never technology has opened up an entirely new era in espionage and the every part is this is only the beginning, and

we are already being duped. Look how easy it is been to turn us against one another and imagine what they'll be able to do to us in the next two to, five years. If we don't wake up, don't add fuel to the fire. Everyone. I know hates the way. Facebook and you know. People are talking on Twitter and Facebook, everybody. I know, and the most noble say: that's why I don't use it anymore. Ok, well, that's one way to go, but Nature abhors a vacuum. Silence in the face of evil is evil itself. You can't just go silent anymore. Your silence is aiding and abetting.

You need to pump positive out in the world, no matter how hard they come at. You no matter What they say to you, no matter how many times you've been torn apart, you say, good simple true things that are peaceful, that are kind that our servant in their nature. And I promise you if you do that. You will heal the nation. But you have to find and follow the great masters of healing. Because right now, chaos is the name of the game. And it only works. If we're all Dead asleep

it's Thursday September 28th year, listening to the Glenn Beck program, owners who do a friend of mine and he's actually a guy who Hisab New York Times bestselling author, the miracle of freedom, the seven tipping points that save the world, which is a fantastic book TED Stewart is, is that author he was a Us District Court judge appointed by Bill Clinton, he was, you know if you tell of chief of staff to the Utah governor, director of the State Department of Natural resources, blah blah blah. Just a really really smart guy, I'm concerned about the direction of our country and put together a book supreme power. The in pivotable pivotal Supreme Court decisions that had a major impact on America, and I want to talk to him about that. But

ten. I actually actually want to start here. This is something that Chuck Todd on Meet the press said yesterday and made you can, can help educate everybody on where he went wrong. Listen to this audio Roy Moore or the is christian, conservative doesn't even begin to describe him I'll be your next US senator. If you don't understand just how freaked out some folks in the GOP and the White House are about what that means, then you don't know Roy Moore first off doesn't appear to believe in the constitution as it's written. I still come from government. They don't come from the bill of rights. They come from Almighty God. Now, that's just a taste What are very fundamentalist views that have gotten him removed from office twice as Alabama's chief Justice TED. I believe that almost everyone would have to be removed from office up until maybe twenty years ago,

the exception of maybe FDR and Woodrow Wilson. If that were not true to explain to the american people, wear rights come from and why it's important I don't have to give my in on that, because to rely on the language of those who created this government, they found constitution United States are asthma related by the declaration of independence where it is stated with absolute rights come from God. The government is to protect those rights. In order for government to uh, great. We have to surrender a certain amount of our rights to that guy for the protection of the bulk of the rights. And if we never government takes from the people. More right, so we have voluntarily surrender that is. Tyranny someday is the foundation of our government. That was what the constitution was intended to put into place and to protect

so ted you, and I know this and- and you know that you cannot separate the constitution from the declaration of independence, but but uh The progressives will teach and have taught, I think, even Chuck Todd. That declaration of independence has nothing to it's just a document. That's all that is the constitution. Is the only founding document that may means anything an. It doesn't clearly state that as clearly as it does in the in the deck creation of independence- I I cannot site specifically to the Supreme Court decisions, but there have been during the two hundred and thirty year, history of our country at least one, if not more Supreme Court decisions, which has stated that in fact, without question of independence is part of the founding,

arguments that the court must consider when it is in the constitution itself. So you you wrote this. You write this book about the this, the pivotal Supreme Court decisions that really have changed. Everything is, I I read through it. You know you would never think that The hours of a bakery would actually, q to abortion, but that's a actually would happen. Can you Explain: that's 'cause, that's I think one of the the seven I don't remember which one it was but I think it's Lochner versus New York. If I look at it, though, that says you know this is about a bakery and Baker's hours and we get abortion out of that the one thousand nine hundred and five case. The issue is whether or not in New York statute that limited the hours that bakers could require their employees to work it was challenged in the Supreme Court, struck it down and

doing so. They said that there is a liberty interest, the right to contract That meant that an employee could because of that every interest contract. An employer to work as many hours as that employee wanted it. It was not at, issue for very long, because subsequently the Supreme Court changes position, but what it did is it created a power in the courts too. Find what liberty means under the fifth and fourteenth amendments to the constitution. That ability to use to determine the word means basic This removing it to a large extent from our elected officials. Subsequently, James, the basis for roll versus Wade up restricting the right of states to a limit, portions are most recently the case of over fell versus Hodges and in that

Adam action case, the dissenter specifically said you guys are just playing this block their game, iru resurrecting. I again this theory that courts by themselves get to define what they really is. And you know that is fine as long as what they're trying to do, they meaning to the Supreme Court, are trying to discern what the founders men. My liberty, or what those who wrote the 14th amendment after the civil war meant by liberty, but in the case of Overfelt, specifically, they came up with their own idea what it was and impose it upon the american people in that. In that overfilled decision there was a very telling dissent by justice. Kelea and it was really the thing that motivated me in the end to write this book and justice. Scalia said that he said and I'm paraphrasing so I don't much care about the marriage laws of the United States. I don't care whether he should respect to states do with marriage,

but then he went on to say, but I do care about who rules over me and then he said this decision today tells me that the ruler of myself and anna- One hundred and twenty million Americans are five lawyers on the Supreme Court and I think that very stark statement by Justice, Kelea Morley, it got me to say you know: do the american people understand the extent to which the Supreme Court has shaped America today first and that the America that we live in today has been decided by many factors, but the Supreme Court has played a key role and more importantly, are they comfortable with the role that silk knits silk so TED the you know the not put too many people know this. The Supreme Court was, I mean you know it's a it's an equal branch of the government, but they didn't even have a place to meet it. Was it met in the basement of the capitol for a long time? That's where the Supreme Court was didn't. Have this huge building that was FDR? That kind of elevated this they've been fighting, and trying to since one thousand eight hundred and three, as you point out in your book, fight

for their place and saying no. No, we are the arbiters of what's constitutional. What's not what's unconstitutional we've to a place so so far where they say is God and it rules over? All of us is there way to reverse it? Well, I think the only way we reverse, that is two verse, those who are pointed to the judiciary up at every level. But if you take, nine members of the Supreme Court we You know. I I point out. One of the little stories I tell in the book is about how the only justice to ever come from the state of topless at landing Short Sutherland. He was appointed by the President Harding. One thousand nine hundred and twenty two his nomination was sent to the Congress the same, he was confirmed the same day. It was not even in the country, and he was made aware of his appointment and confirmation by a letter from the president, almost as an aside

and the reason why that is important. Is it tells you that in nineteen twenty two Supreme Court, justice appointments were not that have a deal, because the Supreme Court itself had not interpose itself. The ways that half cents in sing America in contrast that with the fight over Justice Gorsuch, where I understand that literally millions of dollars were spent at four hundred and against him in certain states trying to get senators to either fall to confirm him or not to that that because of great evidence of how much power the Supreme Court has assumed it has had given to it. If you will uh by the by the nature of our congressional, an actual actions today judge TED Stewart. The name of the book is Supreme Power, seven pivotal Supreme court decisions that had a major impact on America. If you've never read a book by TED you, you need to

So when you get to the end of your life, How many of us will be able to say I made a difference, and I don't mean I don't mean in one other person's life 'cause. You just never know,

but I mean you've changed a culture. I don't think there's a lot of people that can say that Hugh Hefner died at ninety one and good or bad. The heat changed our culture. No kidding wasn't that he published the Playboy philosophy in nineteen. Sixty two uh is that it started twenty five installments the causes: abortion rights. Certainly everyone that you can't even oppose that in the Democratic Party, those cut your funding, decriminalised, decriminalization of marijuana and, of course the repeal of 19th century sex laws. All of those except text laws, one uh, I mean you just never convince me that that is a healthy thing. But instead you know the the instead the sex. Really, It's been repealed. You know those are good, but I mean in which laws talking, but I mean I think that would just prostitution.

If you were an existing honors yeah we're on an exam in a in you know one day, Wednesday, but by a The marijuana thing is marijuana. Things basically happen, but I mean this law sitting of the standards when it comes to sexuality. Yes, I mean it's all one man, Glenn Beck. I would too you're listening to the Glenn Beck program, yeah, it's you know, there's a couple of things that we have to we have to address here. Pat, is just join us, getting ready for Pat gray hype at high. I used to get this like today. You as well you as well It's ok to see you. Ok, it's just not necessarily good, not necessarily good, but not bad. I don't mean that in a bad way. It's just it's just ok, to see you. How could you take that in right away exactly right, so pass getting ready to do his program? Meaningful follows this one. We want to talk about a couple of things, but

You know we were just looking at were just in the break. We were talking about the new tax plan that isn't it great yeah, it's and a you know, watching M S, N, B c up here and it talks about. You know the the the top tax payers they're going to they're going to get they're going to, benefits out of this. Well, it's two percent of the population. One right, yeah, sorry, zero point: two percent of the population Why is this such a big deal and can I is there any place it kept, do progressives and socialist need to have every place, in earth? Well, yeah, I alive, but they do I really can't say I mean you have Canada, you have the rest of the world and it's not working Can we just have one place just one, just one I'll take a state Texas just leave us alone yeah.

One is why can't we have that giant man made islands off the coast in international waters, the only solution I will live there and then that'll get screwed up in a few years too. But then you can always put another one up yeah. What Get one up then you're, like I'm building my own platform and will just have their own island in the middle of the water and will be happy. Surely it will workout perfectly that's. Yeah I'm willing to do it. I mean we don't really try for that. I'm willing to try this there's. Is there no place where free men can just be free. If if this were different, if there was yet another space just the over the horizon were like. No, I don't know see, monsters could eat you and you might fall off the face of the earth. But I hear there's this great place where you can just go and be yourself, I'm willing to I would at this point I would just I really would be like. Ok, let's go sticker chances with the sea monsters. I really would let's go Mars.

I don't know if you saw what Elon Musk is talking about anyone. Have you seen? his Mars rocket I don't know, if you've seen a picture of it, you would know if you saw it. I saw an interview with him and I'm like wait. Wait. Wait That's your Mars rocket. It is, forty stories tall. It can fit wow, a fully loaded with passengers all the Argo all the luggage, a seven hundred and forty seven inside its cargo hold ok, it's route, rageous, how big this thing is, and so I'm leaving and I'm thinking to myself that it's crazy, that's not going to! How is it it's like If I can't even remember how the thrust on this thing, it's crazy the thrust to get this up and

I'm listen to it and I'm thinking that's never going to happen, and he said the interviewer said ok. So your timeline is ten years and he said yeah, I mean, that's what we say and I'm thinking you know it's probably one thousand five hundred and twenty years, and he said, but internally were a little more aggressive, we'd like to do it in five holy cow wow. But I'm thinking he's talking about one million people in ten years on Mars, in ten years in ten years, putting one million people are happen, that's what I think too. But

what don't count him out and I don't know them, although I will say the thrust needed to lift that thing off the earth will wipe out every a mission that he's supposedly saved from the entire project. Yeah. I don't think he cares at that point is a hot elanor sucker and you know when you see a million people to Mars. I I might. I might consider that and a lot of people would like you to do it. You're, not you don't know, and I you know they a couple in this room. I think this is turning ugly armies. Let's go right over to Pat and find out what's on his mind today, pressed today yeah Hugh Hefner. We lost him. Oh boy, we lost a boy. Break it to us like that? Well, he sick now doesn't feel good at all he's dead cat good. Thank you for taking me all the way through that yeah ninety one. And I love the twitter love for him. Uh all of all of these celebrities in

and fans telling him what an uncompromising force he was rest in peace was, it was your legacy and soul shall live on forever and some would say in a never ending burning lake of fire, but I would say that it will go. I'm not a judge, but I'm just saying he's going to burn in the fires. He got. Generations of men hooked on porn legacy leads to sexual dysfunction, marital problems. He probably contributed pretty well to the divorce rate in this country. Sure he did a Betty did sure he paid women to have sex with him and live with him. He exploited and objectified women and by the way, where is the women's groups on that, nobody saying

This guy wasn't a good guy. You know why you know why they didn't because he's one of the first things he did. He said I'm going to take on abortion. I believe in free abortion, horsey dar es that way. Of course, that does why not a soul net worth we had to pay for him, but but also that way he got. You know all the women's groups that they're real they don't care about women they care about. They care about their agenda agenda leftist agenda yeah. There is no way that guy didn't contribute greatly to the moral breakdown of this country. I don't think: So we were just talking about this back I don't know of somebody you know call die yeah. You know very few of us that people are going to say they made an impact. He really made an impact. Yeah, really rare that somebody is dies, and you say that person changed a culture. Did he did he changed the culture? I can't think of anybody who has led to more bad stuff in our culture,

In my lifetime than Hugh Hefner, we went from a society that couldn't show a married couple in bed together. Two naked women in magazines all over the place to billboards that can show everything too. To where we are now and went there pretty quickly after Playboy, debuted and really outside of the L Mcpherson issue. It's hard to point to real positives. I mean, I think we all would admit that some things right, something right, something's right, I wanted to handle it and saying he featured ugly with. In fact, I would have liked to have heard that conversation between he and Saint Peter on the other side out of interest. Ok, so it says here that

your life in your jammies and took pictures of naked women. You have already experienced, have an honor. You think you think he ever got to a point to where he was like. I still I wear pajamas every day. Does that take they often just I want to spend the day innocent I have to. I guess: you'd want tight, I'm so tired is always having to wear the pajamas and way too comfortable hotel is one where hi get. The coverage was interesting too, because they had personal. He was buried next to Marilyn Monroe, which is kind of our listing twist to this yeah. But the you know all the news he's a big celebrity people know who is so they're doing this. This big, you know hey let's. This is what of course, every news broadcast as now. It's like all hello, someone, you know is diet over the night. We have really nothing to say about it, so, let's featured tweets from other people. You might know like, for example, analysts cycle through, like mediocre celebrities, saying like here, have

Solar is why you will live on forever. So they did this in their cycling through the typical celebrities that were mentioning people who work his contemporaries that are somehow still alive, and then they get to a Jesse Jackson. Now listen this. This is great, isn't it this is. He Jackson goes Hugh Hefner a man- I don't have the exact quote, I'm paraphrasing here after a man who stood up and fought, battles for civil rights. He will always be remembered. Aren't you are Reverend Reverend is remembering Hugh Hefner,

like that. Now is the answer to. That is why I know he's not a reverend. No he's yeah, that's a bit yeah, I'm not talking about you know anybody great unleashed coming up on the police, radio and television networks. Listen every day and subscribe on Itunes to podcast it's really great and by the way Doc Thompson starts today at what five hundred am central time every day and he's great, so you can watch it and listen to it. Blaze, radio start your day with us and my program. It then pad app one hundred and forty three million Americans, that is the number that is affected by the Equifax breach. Have you checked your credit cards

Have you have you checked your credit status at all? Were you a part of this equifax hacking these? Chris now have the information to add to it and the the the identity thieves want and need to impersonate you they, your name. They have your social security number. They have your birth date. They have. Your address is now with that They can destroy your life, they can. They can open credit cards, they can take out loan, they can apply for mortgages in your name. So what do you do? I mean it's Equifax for the love of PETE, it's equifax! Well, you put life lock on. And you make sure that you- and I remember wasn't it life- where the ceo came out originally in and put his social security number on buses Remember that yeah. I think so, and he was like that's why so security number and nobody's going to they can't do that. Now. Let me that you just can't do that anymore nobody can guarantee that nobody

to get into any. Nobody can monitor everything. That's happening. The world changed if you would just have to just take steps to minimize the possibility of it and then make sure to put together afterwards, if God forbid, if something happens in life, like does that, I remember when, when he was doing that, I remember thinking nobody's trying to steal my identity. Oh my gosh, he now they are and it is a global epidemic. You don't think Russians aren't sitting there in there who who their underpants and and hacking in that's where a lot of this is coming from. If there is problem AUS based identity, restoration specialist is going to work to fix it. Nobody can monitor all trans. Install businesses and prevent identity theft, but Lifelock man.

Glenn Beck, Glenn Beck. Welcome back to the program, there's a couple things that I want to make sure that you know about Puerto Rico, the, Hurricane victims are having a hard time getting help and that's for a few reasons the ports are all down so getting ships there. It is Why we didn't send the USS comfort right away because the ports could not take this? Is the puerto rican governor said? Please don't send it with ports can't take. And so we we haven't sent it it's. I think it's on its way, but it's not there yet they're still trying to work on all of the ports, which is stop supplies from coming in also the USS,

hurt was not there because the governor of Puerto Rico said: could you help us? Please fix the hospitals first, so that's what we're trying to do the hospital's up and running. I know team Rubicon and mercury, one r. They already have one team on the ground there, but get more on the ground. The problem is, we think we can get supplies there. We think we can pull that off, but the real problem is: how do you get them from the airport? The supplies are coming off of these containers that are on these giant cargo planes. They're coming but but they're just sitting there now the airport, because there's no fuel for any trucks. They can't find the truck drivers. There's there's no cell service, they they can. Guys anything. Yet this is going to take a kind of a more plan airlift to get this thing done and we had some.

Natural disasters lately taking the focus off of a few of the really important things going on the opioid crisis is something we've talked about a little bit and it's a huge crisis country. Vice did an article about the secret lives of functioning heroin users hum They had some interesting perspective, shooting punching with parent Lee, there's still trying to work, but one of the. A that the economic situation has really played into this and and and had people. You know it it's worse and worse because of the economic situation. This is what vice right at Maria's helped it's at Seattle's economic troubles. He resigned as the city's mayor a couple weeks ago because he sexually abused. Young men and boys she's in two thousand and fourteen Seattle's Progressive City Council voted to increase the city's minimum wage to fifteen dollars an hour over a period of years? Left, rejoice, Mureed and had. Platform, calling for the rays. Three years later, things haven't worked out the way the central planners wanted.

In Seattle officials voted three years ago to incrementally boost the city's minimum wage to fifteen dollars an hour they'd hoped to improve ides of low income workers reported the Washington Post, yet, according to a major new study that could force economics, economists reassess past research on the issue. The hike has had the opposite effect. Of course. Of course, players have not been able to afford the increase, minimums they've cut their payrolls, putting off new hiring reducing hours or letting their workers go. The study found did this Seattle Council members pause. No, the heroes of the people are unstoppable Seattle City Council voted unanimously to create a new income tax on high earners, the that's going to drive those people out amazing, user requires residents making more than two hundred and fifty thousand dollars annually or couples making over five hundred thousand dollars to pay an extra two point: twenty five percent tax on incomes of these levels was initially voted down, but they're going to try to push it through. I will tell you the

only things that are saving Seattle, Microsoft, Amazon and Costco. Those three businesses, Microsoft, Amazon, Cosmo, Starbuck doesn't Starbucks get credit, for example, get Starbucks, or maybe I don't know how many people they employ in Seattle, but I mean in an actual headquarters sort of way. But they're changing you know the Amazon and and Apple and it- Degree Costco, changing, really, truly changing everything uh. And how long can you afford? Because this is only going to get worse? That's what progressives do they? They on one thing and then that doesn't work so then they have to change another thing, and then that does work, and then they have to change another thing and they impoverish. Everyone

all along the way, so it's worth California is and it just becomes unlivable an you know: people become wards of the state they can't get out. They can't afford to get and you're trapped there and before that happens. Usually companies leave now because you know Microsoft, an and I would imagine amazon- are so progressive that they're going to do everything they can. But at some point you leave 'cause. You can't afford business there and then what happens. Glenn Beck
