love courage, truth, Glenn Beck! So do we have a gun problem or do we have a mental health problem in America?.
Pro gun controllers have the answer. They think it's very obvious and they're going to do everything in their power to never let option b, mental health ever ever.
Trump blaming the inanimate object. How is how
how is this even reasonable?
I mean we have had guns in America for a very, very long time. We haven't had this problem
having this problem because
Nothing else is wrong.
How do you make it out the gun? While it's easy, you avoid the facts.
You over sensationalized some made up facts of your own and finally
this is the most important of the mall. You make sure everybody stays high.
Is a kite on emotion.
Because, when you're afraid, when you're emotional, you don't think
you do these three things and skies the limit. You can change anything. You might even be able to convince the former chief justice to call for a repeal of the
Second amendment: let's look at the facts here
over the last quarter of a century. The US gun, homicide rate has fallen by over half.
During that same period, the gun,
Dillons victimization rate has fallen by seventy percent, so wait a minute.
Why is it all of a sudden we feel like like we?
have to control guns that the
gun. The pro gun control lobby has made it look like like
Gun violence, rather than receding by fifty and seventy percent, is actual
a growing problem. How is that happening SS?
so every statistic out there will show you the exact opposite. Well, it's
We pretty easy if it bleeds. It leads violence
No matter how random or rare it may be always gets more attention than peace.
A mass shooting will get twenty four hours a day. Seven days a week,
over a month in coverage but random,
Random acts of violence will
inspire marches walkouts. Even
even legislature if, if
if need be, they'll they'll, just take it to the legislature and and will have
legislative Paula sees the world
will change.
But a quarter century of falling crime rates.
Doesn't do anything.
I think everybody can agree that there is a problem right now. We've
establish that it is not gun because because the facts don't fit, that it's not guns
So what is the issue here?.
The answer is mental health.
And the government's inability to address it. I beg your pardon
just for a second while I unload a few more facts, keep in mind
None of the numbers that I'm about to drop came from any partisan source. They didn't
from some conservative think tank and all
This came from the United States secret service, the secret service. Just
needs to report showing that sixty four percent of
all mass shooters showed
symptoms of mental illness, one slash four of them
had been hospitalized or were on psychiatric medication before the attacks. Seven
Five percent of these killers, send
In or engaged in, suspicious conduct that should,
alerted law enforcement
So what we have here is
clinically deeply troubled people who
Any cases had been in
mental facilities, but we're still
pull able, somehow or another to purchase guns and
even giving away their intentions beforehand, with Kim
locations and suspicious activity. Now the
facts clearly show that gun violence is going down by. Fifth
and seventy percent, but at this
Same time meant
health is spiraling out of control and our government clearly can't figure out how to handle it. So
people taken the easy way out. You blame the guns, the tool,
if the clinically insane
all the while,
sweeping the real problem under the rug and that that,
is our fault. It's Friday March 30th. This is the Glenn Beck program.
let me bring you some good news today
we have opioid
addiction problems in this country. Unlike anything we've ever faced, we have kids.
Kids. We have hatred, we have anger, deep anger.
Hatred.
And we're all saying: how do we fix any of this.
I want to tell you today: it's not going to be fixed through tougher drug laws
or even a wall, a wet
Muse Band
Teachers.
Or hate laws? It's not.
We have to recognize and reconcile with the truth, and we have
avoided the truth.
Today, is a really important day
is good Friday. Today is Passover.
And both of those are connected.
And the message in both of those is it is. It
there's always a chance to start over.
Whether you believe that Jesus was just a historic guy.
A good guy or you just believe that g
is. Is God
It doesn't matter his,
His message is the same, no matter
What you believe- and that is the
is a way to start over.
There is a way.
Fix. Your life, no matter where you are.
We've we've grown into these people who,
Those were so self absorbed and so arrogant, and I I want you to know, I'm I'm saying this about me. More than the country we have
We have all fallen short
some of us more than others.
But we're all short and
and what we do every day is we go out and we measure the distance as if we are in some Jesus, long jump competition?
We think we're going to win.
We're not in a long jump.
Why are we measuring how far you jumped in how far I jumped and how far the
person jumped and
At the same time,
Look at it as if we are all acting like this is a long jump competition. It begins
makes sense, because the only time that you really measure somebody's distance,
is when you're going for the gold- and perhaps that's the problem, we're all going for gold.
Our life isn't a competition, it's not
how far or how short we are at the finish line, because we can never come
post to the record holder, never.
We put on our team jerseys, be it right, left, rich
or educated self made Chris
An atheist
in foreign all
steam team jerseys.
And we march into the bogus stadium of our life waving our colors and cheering those
stand with us engineering, those who are our enemies.
And we miss the point we miss
The Egyptians missed.
We're all the same there is
Such thing as a slave in a free man
have human rights. You cannot enslave me and even if you do in slave
you'll never enslave my mind? My soul
who I truly am
miss with the Egyptians missed, the angel
death is going to pass over all of our doors
some point
coming into all of our houses
tell you it's how you live your life and
you go out.
It was a stormy Friday afternoon.
Two thousand years ago, when death came,
in Jerusalem for this man? He was
beating his chest or jeering others. He was a hard working carpenter who got it.
Who's, the quiet man who promised peace and
miss piece to the thief hanging,
Next to him, who, just
The end of his life said: I get it and
want to start all over again. It's that man that changed the world.
Be him God or human. He
is the one who changed the world, any
changed it. By showing us we can change ourselves.
It's so many of us Christians were not changing. Ourselves, worry.
Not changing others we're worried about.
Measuring our distance
It's bogus.
He changed it by showing the
weakness and out. We sometimes feel as ok.
Change the world by teaching us that the way to
here come. The hatred of others is
by hating them back. It's not through
battle it's not through,
argument: it's not I for an eye tooth for a tooth, but it's
gentle forgiveness
even if they hate you.
It's by little by little by little self sacrifice,
recognize what it means to be a Christian anymore. I don't know
what it means to be a conservative anymore. I don't
what it means I know what it means to be human, but I
afraid. The rest of humanity is forgetting.
When I was growing up on Easter, girls would put on
pretty white dresses in boys would put on Sunday suits. You would wear your
Easter, best.
In many houses we had
for candy and eggs and families attended church, and we
come home to eat dinners of honey, baked ham, deviled eggs. Those were our traditions.
Our traditions have taken over in
I fear, left us empty because it wasn't about the dresses, the suits the
deviled eggs or the Easter Bunny it
about a a guy who used that day to show us how to redeem ourselves and how to start all over and it all began with forgiveness, doesn't have to be something big. In fact, it's probably better
If it's something small, we don't have to out jump each other, we don't,
we don't have to win the gold medal in. We should not be chasing after the gold. The person in the group that you're forgive
Doesn't necessarily even know or
need to know that you're forgiving them
or how they wronged. You doesn't matter.
For giving somebody is so hard to do. It takes a long time
And lots of prayer.
You don't do it very often anymore we're condition.
Be angry and to be defensive.
And to run with our own tribe, and today
the other tribe
to signal our virtue, instead of actually just quietly living. It.
So this weekend between the bunnies and the candy in the morning in the ham in the afternoon, can we.
Take a moment and.
Examine the hatred in the anger in the fear, we all feel I mean we say all the time. I can't forgive them. I can't let this
so I can tie this. No, they have to answer for this. May I just quote
one thing and let
really true
bounce around in your soul. This weekend quote father.
Forgive them
for they know not what they do. If he
We could say that is
or strife and our anger and
our reasons for hate
the other side
or hating, those in the other is
really greater than that is our
cross heavier than his is
Our pain, propane,
then he is, he came to save us. He came to show us that there is peace, that there is love and we nailed him to a cross. Really, our problems are bigger than that. Our reason for holding on is bigger than that hello. Here again, humility, meekness grace
forgiveness- find it in your heart.
And begin to make it a practice.
Forgive your brothers and your sisters
Give those who are not going to be at your Easter table because you just can't do it or they just can't do it.
Forgive those who have a
act on social media.
Offended your
instead of self
who may have lied to you have default
Deaths
cheated you forgive them.
Is. None of us are perfect. None
never will be.
And boy. If there's one thing we need more than ever, it is forgiveness,
Happy Easter,

President and American labeled for Hong Kong again landing for a while. Are there still even before Mark Cohn? There was
back past. The signing of the declaration of independence past the age of enlightenment, before Martin Luther hung his protest on the church doors before Columbus, rediscovered the fact that the world was round. We go past Newton, Galileo, the dark ages, the Crusades back to a time before books when most of the world couldn't read or write, and history was oral. We leave this world now where we can hear and see a lone protester standing in front of a tank in a country on the other side of the planet, and we can see it live to a world seemingly simple, yet brutal. Beyond our understanding where news was spread from mouth to mouth, we stopped here at approximately twenty nine of the common era.
We stopped at a small walled city in the Middle EAST. It's around

I could use- and
they crucified him. He now hung on the cross.

back, when a Wall Street billionaire Stephen Schwarzman announced that he was donating twenty five million dollars to the Abington senior high school?
he said in a release that investing in public education yields, one of the best returns imaginable, a new generation of creative capable and
Collaborate future leaders.
He's. A ceo of Blackstone
disagree with his analysis there by the way,
All right, I'm just decided that side point. Yes,
this was his alma mater. This was the high school that he that he went to
and he wanted to get back to the community and he's already given back to the community. I think there's a stadium named after him there's a hospital named after him. I mean he's given a lot to this community. The
The school board voted unanimously Tuesday night to accept his my
and to rename the high school Abington Schwartzman High School.
Well, this is set people up all up in arms. How dare this
egomaniac. His name is already on the hospital. His name is already on the his name is already on the the stadium, and now it's on the high school over the front door as well
what an ego maniac he's
egomaniac. He is he is
The guy who's giving you a stadium,
giving you a hospital giving giving you a school.
He's an egomaniac.
You won't accept
it you don't want it through
for what reason.
He's giving you a gift.
And all he's asking for is hey. Can I have my name on it just so
people remember,
I don't know about you, but the New York Public Library wasn't always public. It was personal, it was private
who is two great men that
up their libraries together and gave it to the city. One of them was asked her. I can't remember the name of the other one I don't
I think it was Rockefeller, I don't remember who it was wow
because we call it the New York, public library and all good things come
the government. No, no,
That library came from two very wealthy men who we,
eat now say were robber barons yeah they were so evil in so bad they were robbing everybody blind to watt
give everybody one of the greatest libraries the country has ever known.
Who's, the one with the ego problem, I mean
you can give in secret.
Is it better to give in secret? Probably we should we're not looking for
accolades or anything else, but I,
but Judge Guy who's, given twenty five million dollars, so the
who can have instead of a rundown high school
a nicer high school and and really pour money into education.
Go to have a problem with him, putting his name on it.
I mean he didn't even get it first
it is Abington, Schwartzman's high school, really Schwartzman Abington, it's really crazy. It's
crazy? What is wrong with us what's wrong with us, should be
edit about that who cares if you want to put his name on there who care about this one,
Thank you. You should be, you should be telling him we demand to put your name on there. Yes, that's what it should be.
But you know what this is. This is class hatred yeah, because
I think you bring up the public library was asked her in by the way, the two and Tilden, but again like
people believe that that's
government. Think,
It's called the New York Public Library and it's like no
great men who donated all of this to the city
and now no one remembers it
Thank you, Mister Schwarzman, my kids will never use your stadium or your high school, but thank you Glenn Beck

love courage, truth, Glenn, Beck to Snowy Sunday afternoon in the bustling cobblestone city square of an english cathedral. Town people are
huddled together is the shuffle from one shop to the next. The man
his daughter, stroll into a pub
talking to a nearby restaurant for a meal, but this moment,
last moment like.
Continues as usual for this small.
This quiet town is quaint.
After their meal. The man and his daughter go out and watch
the snowfall as they sit on a bench and suddenly
they're, both slumped over on closer look,
the woman is now foaming at the mouth or eyes, are wide in pale. She's lost control of her bodily functions, the doctor, who had been
shopping nearby with her husband takes a look now at these two zombie, like people, patient, zero.
A new infection
We've seen it in zombie films, the infection,
task sizes, rabidly, eventually disrupting life on a global level, as all of us are turned into zombies. But
this case
infection doesn't spread like that.
It's not a disease, the
This is diplomatic chaos that grow
More virulent with each reaction.
Within an hour. The man
a former russian spy in his daughter had become catalysts to the
RE ignition of the cold war, see
It's really clear that the Russians had been brazen. The man
it poisoned
double agent, who had retired in England after being convicted of high treason by russian courts,
he was a british citizen.
He died on british soil in a cozy English '
town.
British Prime Minister, Theresa may was outraged she unequivocally,
castigated, the russian government, who continues to deny their involvement she
expelled twenty three russian diplomats from the country. The US followed suit.
Closing the russian Consulate General in Seattle to
to a sub base.
Then dispelled sixty disc diplomats, more than twenty countries, dispelled russian diplomats in an active diplomatic unity with Britain
in what is the largest expulsion of russian intelligence officers in history,.
Yesterday.
The Russians followed through on their threats and ousted sixty american diplomats.
As we now gaze wide eyed.
What does this mean said yesterday quote
Russia's response was not unanticipated and the unite.
States will deal with it
This is just another piece of tickle upheaval on the global scale played out some
times like a game of checkers.
What's interesting to me, is we are more interested in
Stormy Daniels.
Then we are about? What's
taking place all around us like murder,
in broad daylight,
is Friday, March 30th. This is the Glen,
program happy Easter and welcome to Bill O'Reilly. How are you bill?
I'm. Ok back thanks for asking, let me just says get any if you have any additional or new thoughts on Russia in the expelling of the sixty diplomats, I mean it's expected any thoughts on.
What it means where we go from here. Well,
You know you'll know that I was uh I'd love to brag on your shoulder. I know it is unseemly on good Friday in the beginning of Passover is pretty much in c unseemly in every week, but but you know that I kicked off the Trump administration by interview.
President? I know you probably my my marquee was asking him: why are you
Why are you
friendly with a killer food. Why
How do I follow international news? No, that Putin has an arm of assassins,
and and they go all over the world and they kill people all right
and CIA knows it. Mi six knows it in Britain, everybody knows it all right
that's what happened to these people in in great Britain. So what do you do?
I you runs, the show in Russia is not going anywhere. You're, not
it's changing them.
If you weren't the president, he probably be one of the assassins meaning
have a look at the guys eyes. Okay,
so then you have to bake, is basically take it case by case and
I think that the expulsion of the russian diplomats was something that the countries could do
Send a message to Putin, does Putin care? He cares a bit
he doesn't want to be an international pariah and I think that's
you go with them, you you try to isolate marginalized him. Personally and maybe he'll stop a little bit, does this really matter to anybody in their real life? You know be
This is so distant. You know
so far away, they don't know
where Crimea is, and I'm not being supercilious, word of the day supercilious, but those
I don't know where it is. I don't care about Ukraine,
care about how Russia operates doesn't touch upon their lives.
So yeah I mean they know Putin's a bad guy
who runs around topless in the Arctic on, but that's about all they know about is is, is this something they should care about and if so, why well yeah? It did
I'm kind of a citizen. You are I
if you're in a really hyper aware citizen that,
is interested in the world. Of course you have to care and pay attention, but most people just try to make
living in getting through the day or the week yeah you know. So I'm not. I don't come down on people who are apathetic about what Putin does or supercilious.
That's me on super silly 'cause he's arrogant, mean then I'd talking down to people that our government is charged with keeping an eye on Putin.
And so we have to have enough confidence that
government
do that.
At this point I do. I I think that we will keep
close eye on this guy. Alright, let me change directions on the daily wire Benschop
those people went out and they they
to Georgetown University students and
ask them about George Washington. I've started at Georgetown, but George Washington University and ask them about George Washington. I want you to listen to this audio bill
Unami Horowitz and I'm here on, the campus of George Washington University named after our first president,
also a slave owner, wonder,
Students here I think we should keep the name or change
personally, I would change the.
I think that it should be changed. I think that recognition is super important and I think that recognition of recognition for who he was a person- I don't agree with slave trade, so you change the name if you could do it. Yeah yeah yeah, that was one thousand seven hundred and seventy six twenty eighteen and I think it's important that we realized and reupholster the systems that built us. I think we should change the name, it's not to say that he was an important man back. Then it's just saying that in this day and age, it's important. I don't think it was. The first thing comes to mind when I say George Washington, I think about
mom, says yeah hum
so college kids are morons. Who is that the headline here I will tell you about I about burst a blood vessel when here
bigger story, who's, the bigger story, because I know you always hunger for the big story. This kind of infantile analysis,
taking hold on colleges all across the United States, all right
'cause of the cowardly administrators who
put in there who kiss the butts of the far.
Left in any radical,
on campus and they don't want any micro, aggressions or macro aggressions. Look these it-
It's at George, Washington, university um are ignorant.
Are they want to reupholster? I love that I want to re up. You know what I want
the poster your head and just put a pulse tree all over it. So you can't speak, I'm a fascist, ok, I don't have any statues, so you can take him down. George Washington, if you read killing England, I know you both have. Alright is
a tremendous hero and
most solely responsible for
freedoms we have in America today. All the freedom who gave the truth
She held slaves. He was a pro
additive. The aristocracy.
The 18th century. Alright, yes, he did
That was wrong,
Quincy Adams and his father, John Adams, knew it was wrong. Why
Lincoln, looked look the other way. You know not negate his whole life because
He was an aristocrat in the 18th century and that's what
the aristocrats? Did they held slaves so it
just gets me crazy. I don't know whether you you know what's going on in Holy Cross College,
question: what's your Massachusetts now they have this guy.
Teaching who says that that Jesus was a drag
drag king, the okay,
across a Jesuit university, all. Well, here's academic freedom. Here, you know all we disagree with him. This is the president of the university. I said I don't really agree with that academic freedom. I I I sent my I sent my daughter to Fordham University, where they promptly taught her the priest. The Jesuits probably taught her the
Bible was a collection of stories and none of it's true yeah. My daughter goes to for him to yeah all right.
But for them is a little bit better. They did a little bit in
Didn't give into these to this a radical group that was telling republican students in the republican club, you can't go into the campus coffee shop,
the administration for him stood up to that. Ok,
but you have an unbelievable wave of cowardice uh.
These college campuses now and the radical idiots know it and they use the students just like they're using this David Hogg kid in Florida, and I hope we get into that in the next segment. We are we ok.
They're using these kids 'cause. They know the kids are stupid and they know
the kids are motivated by peer pressure and I'll tell you
more thing before you take a break 'cause. I understand you break cycle back that I study your operations. Ok,
I was thinking about sending my daughter to George Washington University, so I went down and I checked
at the dorms and they're located in the city of Washington and I walked in an I could not breathe in the dorms at George
Washington you do. You know why pot,
overwhelming you couldn't breathe in the dormitories there.
So that tells you all you need to know about you, but I will tell you this bill that the the I don't think these kids are stupid. I think these kids are being misled. I think there is
yeah there is, there is no, if you don't seek. The truth
If you don't learn history, your stupid
I will tell you that if you were growing up in today's society, where
most every teacher is teaching you falsehoods and
and the media is showing you falsehoods.
The end all of popular culture is,
Oh is showing you falsehoods.
And rewarding those who fall in line with the falsehoods, I'm
sure that the average person is that
intellectually curious. I I
I do blame. You know.
Ten percent to eighteen percent of the population is strong enough to say, wait a minute, stop it. Uh
No, but not everybody is cut for that kind of of travel. I will tell you bill that I was ignorant most of my life 'cause. It's easy to be ignorant it's hot
learn to say, wait a minute wait a minute and
completely against the grain.
I think they have eighteen lines for that, but I'm not going to do it 'cause it's good Friday feedback,
Cutting these college students college students not high school, I am,
I understand not stuff out there if you
to find out about. George Washington read killing England.
Now one book for twelve weeks got it, I got,
I got it.
Just don't know that if calling them stupid is the
a to get them to be more intellectually curious.

Glenn
bill, O'Reilly Good Friday, he
to be good.
Is Friday,
We were just talking about George Washington University in the students that are that are in college and and bill was talking about how they were stupid, and I,
I believe there unchallenged, and I think you know that the
ten year was meant. So you could say crazy, radical things intel it. Those radical things have have changed over the years, but
can't say radical things. Now you can only say you can only say Jesus was a drag king and get away
You cannot say
that is post, modernist bullcrap, an here's. Why you
I have the other side. You can only challenge
One direction and so
if you are unchallenged, how do you get out of that bill?
Well, the goal of education is to seek knowledge and in order
knowledge you have to seek the truth.
Jiggly. In the liberal arts I mean
You can't go around saying that Adolf Hitler was a good guy
I'm misunderstood. I mean you
I've doing these kinds of things and still be
operating at a level where your teacher or a student on a college campus all right, so if the
or is that your opinion overrides facts?
then you don't have a university anymore. You don't have a college anymore because of postmodernism fat
x don't exist? Well then, you don't have a college campus. Yes, but you don't have one? Yes, okay, so why don't? Why don't we do say do away with your grades? Do away with your degree and you can.
Just have a you know a social time for four years. I haven't. We already said that really is it. Did you ever hear the academic discipline academic?
Discipline means that
You deal with reality. Now there are
subjects that are subjective,
Ok, we know that. But history is not one of that correct,
and so you have a situation now, where you're, absolutely right that
just tolerated on college campus. I don't know that none of this would be a tolerance, traces not tolerated. This is encouraged. This is post modernism. There is no objective reality. There is no objective truth that
the deal that
that will then I should be in the brochure or of the college, but we do not believe in objective reality so sailor suit in here. Yes, I would agree with you that should be in the brochure
but you know, we know that all right bill, I'm going
get to I'm.
To the Laura Ingraham hogs.
In here in just a second, but I want to get
or on this particular topic. I want to get your thoughts on uh,
on David Hogg. We
out going into the Lori Ingram things were going to get get to that after the break, I've got about ninety seconds. Tell
thought on these students and what the problem is
well. I think the students, as I've said, are doing a good thing by raising awareness of,
debate in America
the over gun violence. I think that's a good thing, but
it's clear to anyone who
covering the story.
At now, the students, many of them anyway
taking their cues their information, their analysis and opinions from far left people.
There is the same theme they're not seeking,
the truth anymore, they're, not seeking information anymore,
they're saying? Send me something in the morning that I can tell CNN that I can say on CNN and so now I want to go to the fascistic side of this argument and that, if you disagree, you say anything
this side and they'll shut you down? Next Glenn back
mercury
This is the Glenn Beck program. The
boycott. Now that is being conducted strangely all by his little lonesome. This high school student is now
ducting a boycott against loyal, Laura Ingram because she had the audacity to say after
He started complaining that he wasn't getting into the schools that he wanted with a four point. One
She said, stop whining about it. This is not unusual it,
the schools that you are a applying too well. He took great offense to that
He's demanded an apology and a boycott, an law
immediately said I wasn't.
You were whining, I I'm not calling you names, I'm saying not gonna.
Man-
And she apologized for it, but that's not good enough. So now there is a boycott and boy bill. Have we not seen this movie before
can you going to see it a thousand times again, because there's no impact
into it.
You know, there's no resistance to it.
I see the story a little bit differently than you do:
I think, Laura Ingram shouldn't tweeted about the kids academic situation,
I don't think any
and tater or adult should com.
At all about any
Minor's,
situation in a personal round. I just don't think that you know, because
the adult has the
and the the perspective that the the kid doesn't.
Even if the kid was whining. So what the kit
phone number, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! Wait stupid and there's no spin what happened to that thing yeah! I don't know anout, but wait a minute thing, but wait a minute. I think it is. It is look bill. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!
You and I both agree when people were saying horrible things about Chelsea Clinton, calling her the cowardly lion and everything else back in the 90s we all
I thought that was wrong with it
we said, kids are off limits, don't do it. However,
when they inject themselves in an they, are being held up by the media as these gods and they
every fact wrong. Every
act that I have heard come out of. His mouth is a different issue. Right talking
the issue, the kids presenting and I'm talking about his personal profile. So
I don't have any any problem with
anybody saying well, we believe David Hogg is misguided, Becaus, Xy and Z, but on his per
portfolio? I don't think that adults
We even if he's even if he's bringing it up in the public, we could end up he's bringing it up in Adobe kid. Alright, ok, ok, so
so I would have done it an but Laura said that she was sorry. She didn't mean to demean the kit all right, but the big
for here is within hours
of Laura Ingram tweeting this about uh.
College rejections within hours that kid and his friends had every sponsor
on Laura Ingraham's program listed that in do it
I I could get you a million dollars media matters right there, because the as we just said the far
agencies are working with David Hagens. France. Alright
so they called him up or they texted him and said, hey her this
This is Dave
Why did you do this and Dave
that's a good idea, I'll call for a boycott and that's what they did.
And then all of a sudden, a sponsor said: yeah we're not going to advertise anymore, because that's what these companies do? That's what they do all right. So
who is who
What is the media and the left creating
if David Hogg, what is the no no, but that's not David Hogg, doesn't mean thing with uh
story is where freedom of speech is really in trouble.
In trouble. The far left knows that it
each time they can call for sponsor boycott of anyone. They despise and
some of these companies will fold so you're going to see
this over and over, and you already seen it with me with you with I miss with Limbaugh, with Hannity, already seen it ok and now,
picks up more speed and we're
companies defending
people where, where that so this is
story, David Hogg is just being used
he's being used. He's our semi celebrity. The far left
adopted him feeding
some things that he's putting out there
Nobody knows that, but the beat
corporations of America,
I I I mean I don't freedom of speech doesn't exist anymore. Is that what you're into I have to tell you bill? I I don't. I
Don't accept the idea that just because these are kids or they are or they were in mourning that we
have to walk tiptoe around them. I really don't accept all they are. Can you hang on just a second, when I had a minute wait, a minute it
it. They have engaged David Hogg, has called Dana lash some of the worst names imaginable. She has said that Marco Rubio is splattered in blood, that
he he's he's made all kinds of accusations and then and named Adam, and I am not going to name call back. I don't want to name call back, but if you know
It's it's it's one thing to say: let me play Michael Rapaport here: there's
nothing to say that you, you know how? Dare you say that about this kid he's a kid leave me alone? Okay,
but listen how the left is responding. Play Michael Rapaport WAR, Ingram, the Fox news reporter you, filthy PIG,
you dog, faced animal, remember Laura Ingram. Just a year ago, at the Republican National Convention throwing up the Nazi salute.
Check. This out. Look look at the Arian pin up girl this
the same or Ingram, who, just a few weeks ago said that Lebron James and Kevin Durant and these athletes said just shut up and dribble, and then I said infamously that you should shut up and
Remember her and now Laura groom the Savage this dog this month- and this has nothing to do with her- looks
do with her behavior. I think a stock bill
I do not want to respond in kind he's, a he's, a square where the feminist organization exactly right, yeah well, Saturday, where are they?
exactly right,
so, we all know what's happening.
Happening, is the far left,
the media approval.
And with their encouragement and their enabling have now said, we can stop speech
that we disagree with. We can stop it, we can kill it and we can do it through boycotts. Look this guy that you just played really cares what he says he's in he's a dope at the boycotts. The boycotts
that old for a serious hey, I actually, I will tell you this. I don't think a lot of people even know who Michael Rapaport is a nice. I was struggling to put his face in right. Okay right, so you know I I get that, however,
language and what we're saying on
twitter and Facebook and in blogs-
does matter when we're starting to call people vermin,
does matter. History shows us when you dehumanize people, it does matter so I'm sure
a feminist organizations, are going to be all over. Mr Rappaport, I'm sure that'll next Friday, when we speak, will all look at the feminist organizations rising up and telling him that
Comments were inappropriate. Yesterday there was a there was a great struggle on twitter, demanding facts and sources, and so I had to share with them NBC News and you,
still people didn't believe that the pulse nightclub shooting the first
first target was Disney. He
turned around by a by a police officers being there. They have them on tape, scouting it and then coming back later, with the gun, putting guns into the baby carriage and then seeing this enormous amount of people with guns and turning around then just googling. That
target was not the gay club that was his third choice and he never googled gay club. He just googled gold.
Club in Downtown Orlando Build
don't believe that that was even true half of the country,
because no one reported on it. How do we
Where do we come together bill? If, if
Half of the country is getting
print news. No, we don't
I mean it's not going to happen it
maybe maybe some kind of leader will emerge
Maybe it's happened before
in our history who can
so powerful
in the White House that they can sweep aside.
The hatred that has taken hold possible probable now, so you got two countries now
all right and the two countries fight it out and
there are no rules. This
Smear smear, smear attack, attack, attack, destroy, destroy, destroy and that's what we are.
Can you leave me with something happy
not selling anything, not selling anything I'd say well, it was hard for me. He in the area of commerce. I was I what are summer. Weekends are are different than all the

for this weekend too.
Heathen
This is. This is the weeding. This is the weekend by the way that my my second eldest, daughter, Hannah, I think, became a vegetarian
Really she wanted to become a vegetarian she's, never been able to do it because he likes me too much, but she hates the idea of it and it's because
it's because on
Easter Sunday, I
is cooking, and I was making leg of Lamb
and so I had her. I had
come in and she said what he making dad and I said, come on,
we make it so we put it out in your seasoning and stuff and I she said what is
and I said leg of Lamb and she,
stopped and she said so
eight. So this,
somewhere on a farm
there's a lamb with only three legs like I said
absolutely have to happen. Absolutely you don't need that Lamb, like this all at once, don't know mask again, don't follow. Follow follow an she didn't, but I could see the wheels turning and then at dinner she or when I pulled it out and I started to slice it. She said dad.
Let's all that juice at the red
and I said, that's blood.
And that's when she that's when she was like
okay, I'm going to go cry now. I think the Lamb is one of those that crosses the line.
Toys.
Like the kids have a little lots of stuff Dan and there's not a lot of cow, stuffed animals right now, when you count sheep and sheep are cute they're, cuddly yeah, I guess, although poor
Peppa PIG is having ruin, ruin, probably bacon for a kids.
Probably 'cause. That's the prop very popular cartoon.
Flip, but when she, the great thing is kids when Peppa PIG lose
popularity. We eat her, so she serves us in two ways: entertain
women's education and food
probably not a winning argument with a six year old well, but this is
coming from the guy who said that's blood.
The terrible I was gonna say she was. She was like six. What you do there is you hi? You lie yeah, no lots of cool wow thirsty lots, a coolly right before we took that. I like to tell the truth. Daddy only is drinking because you cry Glenn back
mercury
love courage, truth Glenn Beck, there is,
into truth and
There is the truth that you want
The true
so who you are, but it is do
print then scientific truth
and we need to embrace that and know the difference between that and
without any kind of hatred or or
judgment toward one another.

all right
we have been talking about Russia, Russia, yesterday expelled sixty diplomats 'cause, we expelled sixty diplomats,
and Ian Bremmer is a political scientist and- and he wrote it
for time magazine despite
eight, a parent bromance from
Has been tough on Russia?
Ian is here to talk to us about the what's currently going on with Russia and our stance and and possibly what it might mean Ian well,
the program. How are you going to you?
First of all, I think this is an interesting take from you, because most
it would write for time magazine, I would say say that
Donald Trump has been soft on on Russia, and I think he started out that way.
And he has taken He'S- done some really hard things that I don't think anybody's done really since the cold war.
I mean. Certainly there are people out there that still believe the United States should be much harder in its response, and that was true under Obama and that's true under Trump,
This is a country that we know was involved in undermining the legitimacy of our electoral process, and we also know that they've been engaging in major cyber attacks. Yes, again, all sorts of critical infrastructure. Yes, there's no question that steps that have been taken by
the Trump administration which Trump has personally approved both in terms,
individual sanctions in terms of supporting, arming.
Ukraine something Obama did not
You right and also most recently, the closing of the Seattle Consulate and the removal of these sixty russian diplomats fast buys are, frankly, those are some of the toughest
apps that have been taken by the US. Certainly since the cold war and Trump did not need to take
If you wanted to maintain
my bromance with Putin. He clearly could have said no.
These are the Serbs. The substantial. However, I mean I I'd hate to be the present United States today, because I think Putin, the
is: is a very good chess player and
Is somebody who says they're only going to go so far because nobody wants war with Russia
and I don't know what you should do I mean that that it is so clear that they are trying to dismantle us and the entire west from the inside in their play.
You know not only digital games but they're playing mental games with our with
the entire West Ann.
And what do you do? How do you respond and not go to war? What is the
appropriate response. Well, so I-
a couple of points here. One is that if you really want to hit Putin, I mean we can't delegitimize his elections because they're not democratic.
He's going to win no matter what so it's not quid pro quo, but we could use
We go after the oligarchs, the people that are close,
Putin that have gotten their billions from
Putin's largesse, who have big real estate.
Holdings and all sorts of cash at play in the United States, if we wanted to squeeze them, they'd be very upset at the Kremlin. So that's one step you can take.
You could also start leaking information.
Be embarrassing to Putin and his family,
and and the oligarchs around, in the same way that they leaked information through Wikileaks about the democratic National
committee in the run up to the elections, for example, I mean there are steps you can take, but let's also recognize that one of the reasons
rush is dangerous, is not because
so strong, but by side for precisely because
Russia is declining in its influence globally and Putin's really unhappy about that, and it makes
more willing to lash out more risk acceptance in a way that the Chinese are expand.
Hang their power, the fuel research. The time is on their side, and so then
much less willing to take a whack at
Americans they want to play the long game, they don't want to trade war, and you see this
and clearly Russia's decision Putin's decision to go.
After this former spy in Salisbury UK
probably means that the Europeans now double down on saying
against Russia hurting their economy, while many european governments had been pushing to actually take those things
comes off so they shot themselves in the foot you now have because of Putin going after the US election,
a tough line on Russia being just about the only thing, Democrats and Republicans in Congress
we agree on and even in
crane where Trump
The end, where Putin really embarrassed Obama by going into Crimea, taking it and refusing the
down and having his little green men in southeast Ukraine fact is that weird
Providing the Ukrainians, arms, the Russians are losing citizens and it's very embarrassing for them at home. It's not popular
and most of Ukraine, the vast majority of their economy and the political system is oriented
trip Lee towards the West or Europe in the United States, which had not been the case
or the Russians actually invaded Crimea was much more split in a strange way. Doesn't doesn't the isolation,
of Russia
into what I fear is happening all over the globe and much of it directed by Russia into this nationalization. This this heritage movement, doesn't that in some ways make him more strong. If
there alone and it's us against the world, and we are strong Russia. Your abs
Lee Glenn and it does make him strong at home.
Same way that Castro never won.
The removal of USA sanctions, because I mean if we had been in
like crazy, with all the tourists coming into Havana.
His regime wouldn't have lasted very long, so absolutely
Putin at home is strength,
and by this kind of heritage movement, exactly as you say, but to be clear, there's no threat to Putin Domestic
anyway. I mean whether he was going to win with seventy seven percent of the vote as he did, or seven two percent or sixty five percent. I mean real opposition in Russia is either locked up exiles or dead.
In can we talk about the oligarchs a little bit 'cause. That is when one of the the kind of suggestions, as you kind of pointed out
we go after the people. You know the you know the old in Russia,
now all of their money. That's the
globally, but there's an
meant to say that that is a problem, because what Putin wants
is to bring all that money back into Russia and that
kind of what would be the result of that is that accurate,
in fact I've made that argument an it's a double edge sword. So the question is: how much do you want to get the benefit from
taking on oligarchs, who are clearly going to be personally less happy with the Kremlin? And you know
you get one or two of them to defect. Might you get good information that way, as opposed to the structural point, which is who
Konomi is deteriorating. Oil prices are
Lee LO. They don't really make anything. A lot of multinational companies are not lining up to invest in the russian market, the way they are trying to other emerging markets and so Putin
he's been trying to get big oligarchs to bring cash back to Russia, and that's also
argument in the UK, where you know so many more of them are located in domiciled and clearly that doesn't make Putin very happy.
Back in ninety nine, I read
The manifesto from
Osama Bin Laden and
He said, and I didn't understand it at the time he said what I did, what I did to the Soviet Union. I will do to America.
And I thought well, he didn't do that. You know it.
Were part of it, but it was Ronald Reagan and Pope John Paul and Margaret Thatcher- and you know we collapse them economically- and
uh.
And now I see that I've
feel the exact play
is being made against the United States and the West, and Russia is playing a role in this and I'm
I was so intrigued by it now today they just show their their test their test of the new Satan Rockets, which I was strangely titled, but they you know they talk about this hyper, this sonic weapon and
It just strikes me as STAR Wars and Ronald Reagan: do you
that these are bluffs,
and trying to get us into an arms race. Or do you think this is real? It goes
to your earlier point that if Putin can show his own people that he is on par with the United States, that he is the big
tagonist he can get the
Americans involved in a new cold war, an arms race that makes him look stronger, but you know as the world's
Only comprehensive superpower, the United States. The good news is that,
We do a lot more damage to ourselves than any other country could possibly do that's, of course, also the bad news and in that regard
I mean I would argue that, let's see, John Bolton is probably more of a threat to the United States, a lot what you just said from Osama Bin Laden and let him get to witness, in other words, so
and it really believes the war in Iraq still was a good idea. Despite all of the Americans, killed an p
ESD and coming back and feeling like we shouldn't be
global sheriff anymore, despite all
put the money, despite all of the bad will with allies, as well as the instability in the region that came as a consequence of that failed war. We now have someone that
out to be national Security Advisor thinks that that's actually good Policia, not just in Iraq, but other places too now it'll be interesting to see how that plays out when we have Trump himself,
intimating over the last twenty four hours the US should pull out of Syria precisely because well, what's in it for us we,
beat it ISIS. So why are we still there? We very interest
see how those two end up playing together, even though we the we did not know,
and in Congress, and there was no will to stop this. You know this
war with with Yemen and or in Yemen with with ran, you know, that's
undeclared war that both
Bernie Sanders an MIKE Lee tried to stop and
it you know we're still. We seem to be expanding and not contracting
yeah I mean, certainly in that was Obama and Trump at policies been quite consistent over the course of the two administrations, but not
by the United States, led by our allies, the Saudis in the MRI and certainly after Trump,
this first trip as president outside the United States not
and uh, which would have been more traditional, but instead to Saudi
Fabian was very feted by the saudi king and the crown prince it
could you imagine that the United States would then tell the Saudis. Ok, we're going to cut the rug out and went on to support you in this war. Now I mean I do think that there are good reasons to
support the saudi regime. I think that at home, Mohammed Bin Salman is truly trying to engage in revolutionary transformation, which is way overdue in terms of their economy, their culture and their religion, and if he can stop fun
know what both at home and abroad that's going to take away some of the terrorist
we have, but in
Nationally, he's been a much more willing to take on race, tried to show, was going to see days and also get the American sucked in the conflicts that it's not
we're all clear. Our in our interest in

Glenn Beck Mercury
Glenn, Beck and now the gun debate that I'm
record deserves hello, Mister Hog, my name
Rex jones- and I want to make a public statement about you, claiming to speak from my generation about guns, I'm fifteen years old, Mister Hog and our need talking points or little teleprompter. Behind my CNN interview screen to get my point across I'm backed up by statistics and facts, you are backed up by falsities and lies Mister Hog. My dad publicly invited you to come on his show and debate him. You shied away in crawled back under your rock Iraq shown would like to publicly challenge you to debate me name a time name, the place name, the venue. I will do it Apple
Far from the tree. All my gosh, that's Alex Jones son, challenging Hong to a to a debate which I will say I mean the
Second, amendment was debated among our founding fathers yeah
I mean you know, and I will say that this is a perfect end to this experiment. Let's have a final debate between a fifteen year old and a seventeen year old. One of
which is the son of a conspiracy theorist and let's
have them they'll
wait the second amendment and then we unplug the country and turn it off.
It's a great last act is really where
go from there, goodnight everybody, everybody and we just turn it off and and see. Maybe maybe somebody comes eventually to turn it into something else, but I feel, like I mean I'm speaking as an alcoholic wow
these bottom
I think we just found it, but you know. Maybe I don't think that's it. I don't think that's it. I think those two could debate and we would still yeah we find it a little lower we'd still go lower. I am
I I can you, I
can you imagine, we said the same thing about some of the
drivers of parkland, which is of course they're. Their points are, should
included in the debate if they wish it to be, and
of course, obviously hearing about their experience is important, but
it been utilized by the media and the left is despicable, and it's hard to imagine that this is any different right
I mean it's. The same point should apply here right guys, an.
Not it's not a good turn.

First, maybe just a couple of years tonight I can report to the american people and to the United States has conducted an operation that killed Osama Bin Laden leader Bob on my order. United States military has begun, stressed out kind of terrorist training back even further. This is Diana died. This vast right wing conspiracy, it was today I the thing I've got during the past. Eight or nine terrified living human beings are being held president and American labeled for Hong Kong again landing for a while. Are there still, even before Mark Cohn when the air was signed?
back past. The signing of the declaration of independence past the age of enlightenment before Martin Luther hung his protest on the church doors before Columbus, rediscovered the fact that the world was round. We go past Newton, Galileo, the dark ages, the Crusades back to a time before books when most of the world couldn't read or write, and history was oral. We leave this world now where we can hear and see a lone protester standing in front of a tank in a country on the other side of the planet, and we can see it live to a world seemingly simple, yet brutal. Beyond our understanding where news was spread from mouth to mouth, we stopped here at approximately twenty nine of the common era.
We stopped at a small walled city in the Middle EAST. It's
One thousand o'clock at night, just
Of days before Passover,
the meals are being prepared, the night's meal had already been eaten and
most in the city or asleep.
One man, however, is not it's strange.
He's younger than I am he's about. Thirty he's awake
in alone in a garden
his friends, who have been with him for several years or just a few yards away,
They slumber underneath the star filled sky. They
you don't know that
though they sleep the world is about to wake.
Eleven of twelve men. Sleep
the Side Hill, one man awake, he couldn't sleep, for he knew he was in a guard.
In prayer praying so hard about what he knew was about to come.
Praying so hard that blood actually drip from his pores in the place of sweat.
Back at the hill when he
turned
begged his friends to wake and pray
with him
know how serious his request really was:
they had no idea. What was just
to come deeply
with his friends. Why will you not rise and pray with me he,
This again before returning to the garden alone, he
out there on rocky soil, his hand
this clasp his head, bowed
twilight. Dude raped his neck.

what awaited him

His friends rise rise and pray with me. I need you now more than ever, the

shortly after he left. They fell
sleep again. The
I was even closer.
And he knew his time was running out
now over the hill they more
which, like flowing lava burning in the night solace
The eleven are surely awake now they have sworn their faith to him, but he knows he knew this.
True
We can and he'll be forsaken first

The soldiers approach, the one is grabbed and kissed the trade with the kiss, the kiss wearing the mask of loyal one of the men's league for as his sword cutting the gear off one of the soldiers. He raises his hand, no peace

now Jesus is pulled back and forth between the two who will determine his fate. They,
can't see any crime.
But they still question scourge and mock him.

Wait for me! Rather,

looks on as huge nails are driven through his hands in his feet. They raised the cross in slam it into the ground. It is at this point that all four writers of the gospel struggled with a description of the crucifixion
as I have
they described with the only words that
could use and
they crucified him. He now hung on the cross.
Is the soldiers bid lots on his clothing below next to him.
Two criminals hang
but they are simply tied to the cross.
One of them says you're, the Son of God- save us now save all of us.
The man in the middle does nothing, for he had a purpose.

my father. Why have you forsaken me? This guy began to grow dark. It was approaching three hundred o'clock on a Friday afternoon when Jesus the Carpenter from Nazareth spoke once more and only once his last words.
