Watch Out, Biden Is Coming to a Neighborhood Near You! | 7/7/21 | The Glenn Beck Program

Glenn Beck critiques President Biden's cognitive decline and Raytheon's internal equity mandates, arguing they alienate voters while ignoring that 56.5% doubt his execution of duties. He condemns the Gates-funded math program and Critical Race Theory in K-12 schools as white supremacy tactics, contrasting them with historical figures like David Duke. The episode links societal breakdown to defunding police, citing a $150,000 Neiman Marcus theft and Afghanistan looting, while dismissing evolution denial as racist. Ultimately, Beck asserts that modern progressive rhetoric mirrors past white supremacy, urging listeners to reject normalized political violence and cultural distortions.

Sky News Australia's Unique Coverage 00:09:08
Where do you have to go to find a news organization that notices there's some problem with Joe Biden?
Australia.
You got to go to Australia for that.
Well, other than Fox and talk radio, you go to Australia.
We'll tell you about that.
Who has noticed maybe some problems there with the President of the United States?
Coming up in 60 seconds.
The Glenn Beck Program.
It's Patton Stew for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program, 888-727BECK.
Foreign press taking note of Biden's apparent cognitive decline?
That can't be, right?
That's, I mean, CBS hasn't noticed it.
NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, they haven't noticed anything wrong.
What is it that Sky News in Australia sees?
Well, President Joe Biden's mental acuity has declined to such a precipitously low level that he probably couldn't find his way home after dark, according to Sky News Australia.
Hey, this is a news broadcast?
Yeah, apparently quite an opinionated one.
Yeah.
The network acknowledged it's received a heavy volume of emails about Biden's intellectual presence after the cable news network described Biden as struggling, barely cogent, and a human corpse.
That is something.
I don't think we've even described him that dramatically.
I think there may be a, I mean, I don't want to accuse them, but I think there might be just a slice of opinion sliding into this coverage.
Sky News is like Fox News, right?
Yeah, it is.
It's the conservative leaning news in England and Australia.
Right.
And it's owned by Rupert Murdoch as well, right?
Yes.
It's in that family.
But it is interesting to see that it is interesting, isn't it?
Yeah, because how can you not notice?
I mean, he has been so out of it lately that, you know, they've actually, some of the reports, well, here's what Alan Jones of Sky News said.
Suddenly, the world's greatest power is in the hands of a slightly dazed bloke who looks like he's always waking up from heavy anesthesia.
Isn't that a great description of the way he appears?
He does look like he's getting up from heavy anesthesia.
Yeah, I would disagree with the word slightly.
Yeah, okay.
I'll give you that.
That's a little bit of an exaggeration.
It's not slight.
But yeah, no, that is it.
That is.
You know how you feel when you get in those moments.
You're waking up after anesthesia.
You're just groggy and you can't quite.
Might be slurring your words.
You might be going off on tangents that lead nowhere, you know, not making a lot of sense.
And sure enough, that's Joe Biden.
Back in the day, cars were different than they are today.
Like today, cars are, even though they're not maybe built this exact same way for quality in some respects, they're reliable, right?
You get on, you get a, you know, a $9,000 car, you buy off a used lot that's, you know, a couple years old.
It's going to run for a while.
I mean, a lot of these cars now last well over 100,000 miles.
Even like a cheap car runs pretty well.
Go back to those like 70s and 80s cars, though.
You have one of those cars and you have it after 10, 12 years, and it's got 118,000 miles on it.
Sometimes you just press that gas and nothing happens.
Like the car's running, you press the gas and it doesn't do anything.
And I constantly feel that way when watching Joe Biden.
It's like he's pressing the gas for something to happen mentally.
And it doesn't connect, doesn't fire.
And it's scary to watch.
It is really, I mean, it's scary to watch.
And it puts him in a position, I think, that is somewhat unique from recent presidents.
And that he's really not the focus of this country in any way.
He really has a limited role in our country.
I mean, if you think about the last few presidents, Donald Trump, of course, is the ultimate example of this, but Barack Obama, George W. Bush, going back to Reagan, certainly those people were the focus of all society.
You know, when it comes to news coverage, that's all anybody ever talked about.
I mean, you remember when doing the show, even on a conservative network, when you came in in the morning, all it was, the top 25 stories in your prep are just about Donald Trump.
Top 25 stories in your prep were about Barack Obama.
George W. Bush.
We did talk radio in all three of those presidencies.
And that was the topic du jour basically every day.
What was he doing on the war on terror?
What was Barack Obama doing with Obamacare?
What was Donald Trump doing?
What did he tweet today?
It's just not that way now with Joe Biden.
He makes occasional flubs.
He does, you know, he'll try to pass some giant bill.
I mean, it's not like he's never in the news, but it's a different world.
But they do ignore a lot of what he does because a lot of what he does shows his cognitive decline.
Yep.
So they just ignore it.
And there's two reasons for at least main reasons, right?
Number one is it's intentional by the White House.
They realize he's in cognitive decline.
They keep him out of the press as much as possible.
Part of the reason, yes, why the media keeps writing about his ice cream intake is because the media is pathetic and they will just cover him in a way that's favorable.
It's not just that, though.
It's also that he doesn't do anything.
He doesn't do anything public to cover.
I mean, yes, he's passing multiple trillions of dollars of bills.
And that's the other side of it is the media is assisting in this strategy.
So the White House has a strategy to keep him out of the media and the media is assisting in that strategy.
Both of those things are going on.
But it is interesting to watch it.
It's totally different.
I remember that when I think you were on with me, Pat, on the News and Why It Matters, a show that we do every week.
I think you were on this episode.
And we get to the end of the show and they do a Twitter poll every day or every other day or whatever it is.
And they do a poll that said it was who is the most corrupt?
A typical kind of fun way to end the show.
Like you're just going to talk one of those things out.
And the options were like, you know, Barack Obama, you know, I don't know, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden.
And we were like, I don't know, a month or two before the election actually occurred.
And Hillary Clinton ran away with a poll.
And I'm thinking to myself, this is conservative talk radio.
It is Twitter, the most activist part of conservative talk radio, voting on a poll just before an election for president of the United States.
And the candidate running for the Democrats gets slaughtered in the poll by Hillary Clinton, the last candidate.
People just don't.
I don't know if it's because he's so old and the cognitive thing almost helps him because people are like, I don't know, he's this old guy and I feel bad saying bad things about him.
I don't know what it is.
I think there's a lot of, ah, that's just Joe being Joe stuff going on.
Yeah.
I think they still attribute it to that.
Ah, Joe, you know, yeah, he screws up sometimes.
Don't worry about it.
That's just Joe being Joe.
Yeah, he's great.
He's great.
He really is.
And there's tons of blame to go around to the media.
And of course, it's applicable here.
But really, it's also the conservative media.
There is not a ton.
Like, you don't see tons and tons of big books coming out that are anti-Joe Biden books.
No, and there should be.
There's tons of them about Obama.
Look at the corruption from this guy.
Yeah.
It's unbelievable.
Peter Schweizer wrote a great book about all the corruption and it didn't get the...
And it wasn't just Hunter Biden.
That was like his whole family.
Yeah, his whole family.
Joe Biden's brother, all sorts of people included in that.
Well-researched, typical Peter Schweizer.
He does a great job with this stuff.
And I remember it was hard to get people interested in it.
Yeah.
They didn't really care.
Yeah.
Oh, he's okay.
And part of that was because I think conservatives at that time were focused on more of like the defense of Donald Trump as he was kind of always under attack from the media.
And it was more.
I mean, that whole election.
We said this before.
That whole election was not about Joe Biden at all.
It was just, do you like Donald Trump or do you not like Donald Trump?
That was the entire election.
And so, you know, you get through, you get through that era and now Donald Trump's gone.
Obviously, all of these cable news organizations are like, what do we do?
Putin's Coat Notes Footage 00:04:56
What would he talk about?
We kicked Donald Trump off of social media.
We can't even talk about his tweets anymore.
What do we do?
The ratings are in the tank.
And there's just not that level of passion for or against Joe Biden.
He just seems to exist in this world that is shielded from all of that.
That's why it's interesting to see Sky News Australia talk about him like this.
Andrew Bolt of the Bolt Report, which I'm sure you're quite familiar with on Sky News, right?
Oh, yeah.
I watch Andrew Bolt of the Bolt Report all the time.
Played some footage of him struggling to answer the reporter's question the other day about the Russian hacking.
And he paused for, as the article says, a ponderously long time before he took out note cards and read the answer that he didn't, we don't know.
That was his answer.
That was weird.
Yeah, here's what happened there.
Mr. President, let me know if I can ask you a question.
Sure.
Great answer.
With the most recent hack by the Russians, would you say that this means the Russians?
Okay, with that.
That's what I've done on it.
I got a brief as I was on the plane.
That's why it was late getting off the plane.
I got a brief and five, six, seven.
Would you like Harry Seal?
Nine.
I'll be in better shape to talk to you about it.
Ten-second pause.
Okay, good one.
And then the other pocket.
Okay.
I'll tell you what they sent me.
All right.
Tell us.
Yeah.
Hello.
The idea, first of all, we're not sure who it is.
Okay.
And that's basically his answer.
That's his whole answer.
Basically, we're not sure who it is.
Okay, so that's his answer from pulling out two sets of notes, one in each coat pocket.
And if you're listening to us on one of our hundreds of radio stations, that sounds really bad.
When you watch it, it's worse.
Yeah.
He seems to figure out where to find the notes to where he would read the phrase, we don't know who it is.
Which you know that they told him where they were a million times before he went in there.
Mr. President, there's notes in both sides of your suit coat.
Both sides.
So when she asks you about Russian hacking, pull out your notes.
If I were to say, gun to your head right now, Pat, got to make a decision or someone pulls the trigger if you pick incorrectly.
Would you say, yes or no?
Both notes were the same.
Yes.
I would say yes.
Yes.
They were like, look, whatever pocket he goes into, the notes need to be in there.
I think that's incredible.
I would bet a million dollars on it.
If I had a million dollars, I'd bet it on that.
Yes, both were exactly the same.
That's sad, Pat.
It is sad.
I mean, it is.
There's no reason to put the same notes in two pockets.
No.
But I feel like you're right.
I feel like there's a good chance.
A really good chance.
And so that's why Sky News notes, if Putin sees this footage of him that we just showed you, and I'm sure he will, what he'll conclude about the guy leading the world's biggest superpower is that he's not in charge.
Well, Putin already knows it.
Putin spent four hours with him.
Putin's not going to be surprised by that footage because I'll bet you the head-to-head meeting they had, it couldn't have gone spectacularly, right?
Because he's not capable of spectacular meeting.
I think it could have gone spectacularly for Vladimir Putin.
Yes.
I think that's possible.
Yes.
Sadly.
It's the way at least it feels.
I mean, I don't know.
Maybe we'll find out that behind closed doors, he's a totally different person.
But I don't believe it.
I mean, it's so often he's out in public at different times of the day, coming out of a meeting, going into a meeting, just waking up, just before bedtime, middle of the day.
He always seems the same out of it.
And even when he's quote unquote on his game, it's still not impressive.
Right.
There's not a moment where he comes out and you're like, okay, he, all right, maybe he's okay.
He never looks fully capable.
No.
He always seems like he's on the verge of a nap.
And like, I don't mean like, okay, I'm ready to take a nap.
I mean that three second period right before you actually fall asleep, like where you're so groggy and out of it.
And if someone, you know, if someone walks in the room and starts talking to you, you're like, wah, wait, what?
Trump's Lackluster Public Presence 00:13:29
What?
Wait, hold on, start over.
It's like that feeling all the time.
All the time.
Yep.
888-727-B-E-C-K, Patton Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
Patton Stu for Glenn, 888-727-B-E-C-K.
And so, even though the president not completely in control of his faculties, he's still trying to tell us what to do as far as this vaccination situation.
Why don't you leave it to adults to make their own decision and quit trying to force this issue?
Jen Saki was talking about they're going to go door to door and get Americans vaccinated if they have to.
Here she is talking about that.
The president will outline five areas his team is focused on to get more Americans vaccinated.
One, targeted community-by-community door-to-door outreach to get remaining Americans vaccinated by ensuring they have the information they need on how both safe and accessible the vaccine is.
Okay.
And then later in the afternoon, Joe Biden talked about going community by community to get people vaccinated and door-to-door.
A special focus on five ways to make gains in getting those of you who are unvaccinated vaccinated.
Because here's the deal.
We are continuing to wind down the mass vaccination sites that did so much in the spring to rapidly vaccinate those eager to get their first shot and their second shot for that matter if they needed a second.
Now we need to go to community by community, neighborhood by neighborhood.
Okay.
And oftentimes door to door, literally knocking on doors.
Literally knocking on doors.
Is that necessary?
United States government is going door to door like a pest control salesman or a guy who's selling magazines and violating your no soliciting order and your HOA, and they're showing up to vaccinate you?
Are they really going to do that?
I can't imagine it's going to be a widespread thing.
And it's not a good idea, obviously.
No.
You know, there is, we kind of do get into this world where we think of people who aren't taking the vaccine as people who are, you know, quote unquote anti-vaxxers, right?
Like some people don't want to take the vaccine.
That should be up to them.
That's totally fine.
And I haven't had it yet.
I'm not an anti-vaxxer.
No.
I just, yeah.
I haven't decided if it's right for me yet.
I haven't, you know, I'm a little turned off by some of the side effects I've heard about.
You know, just even if it's just people getting sick for a day or two.
I don't really want to.
And that should be your choice, right?
There is a group of people within the group of people who are not, a subgroup, if you would, that is just like, you know, maybe elderly, maybe they don't have access.
They don't go to the doctor a lot.
There are a lot of people who just don't freaking go to the doctor.
I remember reading some poll about the percentage of people in America that never go to the dentist.
And I was like stunned.
It was so high.
It was like a quarter of people.
Really?
Yeah.
It's like super high.
So, you know, some people just don't do it.
Some people have like jobs and they're busy and these places aren't open.
You know, there is some level.
There's some percentage of people left that are convincible, right?
And, you know, you might want to.
I am.
Yeah, right.
I'm convincible still.
Exactly.
So those people do exist.
This idea, though, that you're going to go door to door in an extreme completely off.
Exactly.
It's like you're going to push against those people.
I mean, think about this.
If you're the Biden administration, right?
And you actually care, let's just say you actually care about getting people vaccinated and you look at the stats and like, well, it seems to be people more in red states, more conservative leaning that are not doing it at this point.
The last thing you do is say, you know what, we're going to do is as the Biden administration, let's have Jen Saki tell everyone that she might show up to her door, your door with a needle.
Like it says obviously they don't care about getting these people vaccinated.
It's not their priority.
I don't know what is, but it's got nothing to do with actually getting people the vaccine.
And they keep claiming that, but that does not seem to be their goal.
Certainly you wouldn't do it this way if it was your goal.
No, absolutely not.
How many people are going to roll up their sleeve right then and there?
Say, yep, do it.
This is the Glennbach program.

888727 back is the number.
It's Pat and Stu for Glenn.
He's back on Monday.
One quick point here on the vaccines and the fact that the media obviously doesn't care about getting people vaccinated.
They can't do-to-door thing is ridiculous.
It's ridiculous.
That's going to push people away from the vaccine.
You show up at the door with a needle.
Sorry.
I don't know where that's been.
I don't want anything to do with it.
See you later.
Yeah.
Bubba now.
One thing you could do is I think, and they're not doing this so far, but like you could just get the vaccines to people's doctors, right?
One of the issues, like I had a friend who was thinking about getting the vaccine.
They hadn't gotten it yet.
And they went to a doctor's appointment and the doctor was like, look, you should get it.
Like, get the vaccine, get it done.
I know it's annoying.
Just get it done.
And they were like, all right, what do I need to do?
And what they needed to do was leave the doctor's office and go on their phone and set up an appointment for four days later.
And then do it right then.
Right.
Like, just get it.
Get it in the hands of the freaking doctors who people trust, right?
Like, you know, their local doctor who's giving them the information.
That's one thing.
Another thing you could do, and this is more applicable to what we're talking about here, which is if you actually cared, let's just say, let's just come up with a mythical world where the priorities of the media and the government was to say, we want this pandemic to be over and we want people to be vaccinated.
And the vaccines are great.
And we think this is the best thing that we can do.
We're going to put that above everything.
We're not going to, obviously, it's bigger than politics, right?
What you could do is have a concentrated effort to put a guy named Donald Trump on television and all over the media to get the vaccine about how much the vaccines are a success story.
Can you imagine what that would do?
Yes, it probably would make a big difference.
It would influence millions of people who are supporters of his and remind them that, hey, he's the one that got this going.
Right.
It's his administration.
It's his accomplishment.
Yes.
By the way.
Donald Trump got the vaccine.
Yep.
I listened to Donald Trump on the Clay, Travis, and Buck Sexton show.
They're in the Rush Limbaugh time slot.
And they had the president of the United States on the air.
Former.
Former.
Sorry, I should say.
Former.
You're right.
Former president of the United States.
And Jeffy, by the way, from Jeffy, Chewing the Fat podcast, joins us here.
Just a believer.
I mean, Joe Biden got more votes than anyone, my friend.
He's the president of the United States of America.
But like, you take the former president, and I was listening to him talk about the vaccines.
He sounds exactly the same way he did during the campaign.
A huge part of his reelection campaign was, hey, we're getting these vaccines done.
And a huge part of his legacy is having gotten the vaccine done.
Yeah.
In the timeframe he said it would get done.
Yeah.
Which is incredible.
And as he pointed out, again, the entire media said it was impossible and he was lying about it.
Right.
Okay.
So let's just say, like, I know you have this ban on the president.
I know you can't bring him on when asking him about denouncing white supremacy or whatever weird thing you feel like you have to do every time he comes on.
How about don't do any of that?
How about have a nice softball interview where you say to Donald Trump, hey, guess what, Don?
It would work.
Yes, it would.
Mr. President, you came up, you were able to shepherd these.
Think about this approach.
If CNN was on the air, if all the news networks and the president of the United States went and said, you know what, Mr. President, we have a lot of disagreements.
But look, you did an incredible thing here where you pushed these things through.
You were able to create an environment where things occurred that have never occurred in human history.
That you have wiped out with these vaccines, we could wipe this pandemic off the planet.
And you're the guy who shepherded that process through.
Instead, what they've done is say, there was no plan.
There was no plan at all.
We had no idea.
We came in here.
There's boxes of vaccines.
They were even going to be mailed.
They just completely lied because they wanted to win politics more than they cared about whether people lived or died.
And they could.
That is the truth.
Ignore everything that happened before and just say, here's Donald Trump.
Donald Trump helped get this thing done.
And Donald Trump, what do you think about the vaccines?
And he could just do it.
And they don't have to say anything about it.
They don't have to go backwards.
They don't have to talk about January 6th.
Go forward.
They don't have to talk about January 19th.
That's what you just said.
That would never happen.
Biden could never say that.
Not in a million years.
That would not happen.
Neither could one single soul on CNN.
They couldn't even bring themselves.
Like, let Donald Trump come in there and say, you know what, you guys lied about me the entire time and these vaccines were a success and you guys were wrong.
And let him say every terrible thing because obviously you care about getting it, right?
You care about the vaccine.
So you know they don't.
You're going to put the pandemic above your personal pride, right, guys?
Except they were not even considerate.
And you played his, you know, we've continued to play clips of Joseph Robinette Biden struggling to say anything.
And I see where there's a new study done, a new survey of a thousand likely voters from the Convention of States and the Trafalgar Group.
56.5% of American voters do not believe that President Biden is fully executing his duties in office.
Wow.
That's amazing.
Okay.
56.5% of American voters.
You can't get to 56.5 with just Democrats, guys.
No, you can't.
You can't do that.
No, you cannot.
Or just Republicans.
So that's not just Republicans saying, yeah, he's not fully executing.
That's Democrats, Republicans, Independents.
I'd like to know, because I'll bet, you know, there's a huge portion of, I don't know.
You know, there's a lot of Jeffys out there who.
I don't know.
I don't know.
So what is it, like 56.5 to 20 to 19 who think he's fully executing his job, his responsibility?
Does it say?
36.4% believe he is directing all policy.
That's higher than I would have guessed.
31.7% Democrat voters do not believe.
That's incredible.
I know.
Wow.
I know.
You got 83.6% of Republican voters that don't believe he's doing it.
I would say that's a little low.
Yeah.
That seems a little low.
And 58, a little over 58% of independent voters do not believe he's fully executing his job.
That's remarkable.
I mean, and I don't see how you come to another conclusion other than you just, you know, you're hoping.
You're a Democrat.
You voted for him.
You're hoping.
Or you just watch CNN, which doesn't cover any of it.
You know, you only in your little sphere, all you see is what reinforces your point of view.
And if that's what you do, then you don't understand that the guy is in serious cognitive decline.
Yeah, no question.
I mean, he does not wear in his pants backwards like the previous president, Donald Trump, but he's barely been disproven, by the way.
I mean, he just struggles every day.
And I would say that, you know, you talked about the notes in his jacket pocket being the same.
Demisexuality and Pride 00:04:38
I don't know.
Doesn't he carry the names of all the names of dead soldiers and the deaths of the coronavirus in the one pocket?
He didn't seem to have that in either pocket, though.
I don't know.
It seemed like the other note.
He didn't mention, he didn't pull the first one out and go, oh, these are the numbers that I carry with me every day.
No, you don't.
No, he did not mention that.
So it's probably the exact same note.
I'm sure it is.
Sad.
Also, dreams do come true.
Here, as long as we're doing a little chewing the fat segment, I want you to know dreams do come true.
Michaela Kennedy Cuomo, 23, came out on Instagram.
And, you know, the daughter of your man, you know him.
You love him, Andrew Cuomo.
Andrew Cuomo is awful.com.
Yes.
Is his last name.com?
I think it is.
It must be.
Every time I hear Andrew Cuomo is awful.
What is his middle name and then dot com?
AndrewCuomoIsAwful.com.
That's the way it works out.
She came out last month as queer, but now has declared herself demisexual.
Wait, hold on, because I thought also she had come out previously.
Do you have the whole transition?
I do.
Okay, walk us through this because this is pretty interesting.
Okay, so in elementary school, she feared that she was lesbian.
And that's the way she phrased it.
I don't know why she feared it.
What kind of hate monger is this person?
Yeah, that is the way she phrased it.
She feared.
So you have to assume that, I guess before that, she was either straight or nothing, right?
Right.
She's a little kid, elementary school.
So she hits elementary school and she's like, oh my gosh, I'm terrified I might be.
She must be lesbian.
Okay.
Right.
Wow.
And a lot of kids in elementary school think in those terms.
A lot of kids are like, I think I might be a lesbian.
Happens all the time.
Very common.
Then in middle school, she came out to family and close friends as bisexual.
Okay, so there's the third thing that she is.
She's bisexual in elementary school.
Then when she was in high school, she discovered pansexuality.
Okay, pansexual.
So she has sex with everybody.
That's the flag for me.
No, I think pansexual, if I understand it correctly, and Jeffy, I know you'd probably be the expert on this, but let me attempt it.
Pansexual means that basically you don't care about whether it's a guy or a girl.
Like you're just going to, like, whatever, whatever, if you meet someone, you like them, you go for it.
You don't think about it.
You're not attracted to either one.
But that's almost anything, right?
And now she recently.
It's not limited to just men or women, I think.
Right.
Right, right.
But where bisexual is you're you're you are attracted to both.
Where pansexual is you're not necessarily attracted to either.
It's just you're just attracted to the individual.
And you're not necessarily not attracted to everything either.
Right.
So you might be attracted to absolutely everything.
Or nothing.
Or nothing.
You can't be pinned.
We should point out that.
She's settled out as queer.
Yeah, queer.
Okay.
Now, what difference is that?
What is now Jeff?
She's demisexual.
Demisexual.
Which is what is demisexual.
That is people only feel sexually attracted to someone when they have an emotional bond.
I think this is interesting.
I think I'm demisexual.
Right.
I think demisexual is the way we're supposed to be.
Right.
Now, I think like when you talk about sexual attraction, I can look at some movie star and say, wow, she's hot.
Right.
Without having an emotional bond with her.
Yes.
Right.
Or he.
I'm saying in my particular case, I might say, but like I, so you, she's saying you can't be attracted visually.
You can only be attracted via emotional bonds.
Right.
So that's not exactly the way that I think everybody is, but it's a good element of a relationship.
I think that's a good idea.
Now, this is where her dreams have actually come true because she said in this interview that she has always dreamed of a world in which nobody will have to come out.
Me too.
Oh, my gosh.
I think the dream is coming out.
There you've arrived.
You've arrived.
You don't have to worry about it anymore.
She claims that nobody has to come out because everybody's sexuality will be assumed fluid.
That's a different formulation.
In the world that we live in now, it force feeds cisgender heterosexuality.
I hate it.
Coming out of the closet is a lifelong process of unpacking, internalized social constructions and stigma.
How many times have I said exactly the same thing?
How many times?
I can't.
If I've said it once.
Well, that's the time.
Unpacking Internalized Stigma 00:15:23
I've said it.
But I haven't.
But if I had said it once.
This is why I keep hearing this mainly from the very warm videos produced by giant corporations like Procter and Gamble who say like, love is love.
Let us give you a two-minute pride video about that.
And at the end of one of these I watched last week, it said, like, we just want to get to this point where we don't need to talk about this anymore.
We're just, you know, you've arrived.
Congratulations.
You know, because they say like, oh, well, we wanted to come out and then we realized people were going to be judging us.
And obviously that means evil conservatives like us, right?
We'll be judging us.
Here's the thing.
We're not judging you.
We don't want to hear about it.
We don't need to hear about it.
You can do whatever you want to do on your own.
I don't want to hear word one about it.
And you've arrived at this incredible world you desire, this oasis that you've been trying to get to this entire time where you just don't have to tell anybody about it.
We don't have to hear about it.
I feel like you have to tell us.
We don't need to know.
I'm sorry if we conveyed to you that we wanted to hear about this stuff.
That's our mistake.
We don't.
We don't.
We never did.
Dreams do come true.
By the way, they do come true every day.
I'm listening.
Chewing the fact with Jeffy.
It's Patton Stuffer Glenn on the Glen Bag program.
Things are going so well right now.
You notice?
Really going, really going well.
President Biden the other day said, I don't want to answer your Afghanistan questions.
I'm in my happy place.
We need to talk about happy times.
Because it was the 4th of July weekend and things were so happy.
Well, he thought people were going to save 16 cents on their 4th of July meals, which is really a happy place.
Until you go to the grocery store and actually try to buy food, then you find out it's not such a happy place.
And the prices are not exactly what the White House told us they were.
He says you.
I mean, I've got 16 cents jingling around in my pocket right now.
Yeah.
So congratulations.
Life is good.
What are you going to do with that?
I was going to invest.
If I had gotten the 16 cents in savings, I was going to go buy some Bitcoin.
Oh, really?
16 cents worth.
I'm going to take it and put it into index funds.
Index funds.
I want to make sure that I want to take a safe, conservative approach here.
Because this is money.
You don't see this sort of money every day.
This is life-changing cash.
That is true.
So I'm going to put one nickel in an ETF.
I put the dime over in a mutual fund.
And then the penny, I might put the penny into something crazy.
Cryptocurrency.
I might try just to be crazy with one penny.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, good luck on that.
Thanks.
Gas prices, a little higher than they have been.
Well, in the last seven years is all, though.
So also, most major institutions in the country telling us that America is irredeemably racist, sexist, and exploitative.
We got the 1619 project, which is infecting our American school systems.
Everything is going.
The critical race theory is being jammed down our children's throats.
Things are going really well right now.
I think the Democrats have this on a really good trajectory.
So I'm definitely in a happy place with Joe as we head into the middle of summer here.
Triple 8-727-BECK.
More Pat and Stu for Glenn coming up on the Glenn Beck program.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
It's Patton Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.
Triple 8-727-BECK.
When did you first hear, Stu, about CRT, critical race theory?
When did you first become aware of it?
We've talked about a lot of these issues around it, you know, because it's very tied into what we've talked to on this show many times as social justice.
Yes.
But it was always an element of that black liberation theology.
It's all sort of intertwined, but as a prominent term in our culture, it's pretty recent.
Yeah.
It seems like the last year, maybe?
Maybe at the most.
Well, big companies like Raytheon have apparently been had programs in place to encourage their white employees to confront their privilege and reject the principle of equality and to defund the police.
They've been teaching that since last summer.
We'll get into that, tell you about that.
Coming up in 60 seconds.
The Glenn Beck Program.
It's Patton Stu for Glenn.
He'll be back on Monday.
Raytheon, another gigantic American corporation that is involved in critical race theory or CRT, as we call it for short.
And apparently they're taking their white employees to school.
So that's great.
That's great.
You could tell that the left is not enjoying the way this is playing out because they're doing all the typical things that people on the left do in these situations, which is deny it's not really what we mean.
You're using the term incorrectly.
It's not really happening.
These things that you say are so bad.
When their former position was these things are not bad.
These are good.
Yeah.
Right.
Now they're realizing the pushback, I think, from the American people.
They've run up against that wall a little bit with this stuff.
And so they're saying things like, well, it's not really critical race theory.
It's just intersectionality.
They're very closely related.
As we all know, intersectionality essentially would be an element that is required to discuss critical race theory.
Well, for instance, have you confronted your privilege yet?
Have you confronted it?
I have.
You have?
Yep.
Okay.
Yeah.
And confronting it.
It ran the other way.
It did.
Yeah.
So you don't have your privilege.
I scared it away.
You scared it away.
That's how you do it.
When you confront it, you just got to confront it, come out from behind a door or something when it's walking.
And so like maybe it's on its phone.
Yeah.
And then you jump out and you make a really loud noise and it runs away.
Oh, okay.
And then you don't have any more privilege.
All right.
That's where it works.
Okay.
So you identified and scared away your privilege.
Have you stepped aside for minority voices yet?
You need to step aside.
No.
No, you haven't done that.
I'm not going to step aside really for anybody.
I'm going to.
Well, these minority voices, though, Stu, are more important than your own.
So.
So you kind of need to step aside for them.
Understanding what we're doing is encouraging people to listen to others based on their skin color.
Yes.
Now, has there ever been an example of this being utilized and turned out poorly?
Has there ever?
Yes.
Really?
Yes.
There's many examples of that, but we're ignoring those now.
Oh, we're going to ignore them.
Yeah, we're ignoring them.
Okay, good.
Yeah.
Because I have this idea, and it's been sort of foundational to me for quite a long time, which is never, ever in your entire life, make any decision based on skin color.
Really?
Never.
Not once.
Not even one time in your life.
That's old.
You make any decision based on skin color.
Old think is what that is.
That's old think.
Yeah.
Not the appropriate way to go.
Not appropriate anymore.
Got them.
No.
And by the way, we should point out Raytheon is our second largest defense contractor.
Yes.
They should be thinking about building giant missiles and planes, things that blow other things up.
Focus on that.
That's really important.
Intersectionality should not be the focus of Raytheon.
And why is it?
It's just so bizarre.
And we're supposed to reject, according to Raytheon and their program, they're telling employees to reject the notion of equality and instead strive for equity.
Yeah, Nathan.
Can you walk us through the difference between equality and equity, Stu?
Sure, I can.
As Chris Ruffo, who initially reported this, as he seems to be doing all the time, Raytheon explicitly instructs employees to oppose equality, defined as, quote, quote, treating each person the same regardless of their differences.
Right.
Reject that.
Yeah, that's old, again, old think.
And instead, strive for equity, which, quote, focuses on the equality of the outcome.
End quote.
Love that.
Do you remember when like the conservative attack against the left-wing philosophy was to say, hey, we all want equality.
We just want equality of opportunity.
They want equality of outcome.
And the left will be like, what?
How dare you say that?
That's not true.
That's not what we want.
Now they admit it.
Now they admit it.
It's exactly what they want.
Of course it's what they want.
And that's what equity is.
This word, which sounds like the other word, but is not the other word.
Equality and equity are different things.
Big time.
And so this is essentially Marxism they're talking about because they want to guarantee the outcome.
Or at least theoretical Marxism.
Of course, Marxism in reality has no such thing as equality of outcome.
Except that everybody comes out poorly.
Everyone comes out poorly except for the ruling class, which has a pretty sweet life.
Certainly different groups.
Ask the Uyghurs if communism provides equality of outcome.
Well, you can't because they're in concentration camps.
Oh, yeah, it's difficult to get to them at this point.
They're in thousands of concentration camps spread throughout the country.
But yeah, it does not actually provide such things, but it is theoretically providing those things.
Chris Ruffo writes, finally, in a collection of recommended resources, the company encourages white employees to, quote, defund the police, end quote.
Quote, this is a defense contractor.
We should defund the police.
I love this.
Also, quote, participate in reparations, decolonize your bookshelf, and something that I will personally guarantee that I will never, ever in my life, ever do, quote, join a local white space.
Now, what is a white space?
Yeah.
It seems to be a collection of white people who talk about their whiteness.
What do I want to do?
For example, let me just give you a theoretical.
We'll talk about how bad you are as white people.
Well, talk about your whiteness and understand and think about your race all the time.
Something like, like, they used to have these groups.
People wore hoods to the meetings.
And they were great, I'm sure.
Robert Bird was a big member, big proponent of local white spaces.
Yeah, that was something that used to happen among Democrats all the time, and now they want to bring it back.
Isn't that wonderful?
You know, the Democrats brought us the KKK, and now we have local white spaces, which are totally different than the KKK in that they're also white people getting together to talk about their race all the time.
I guess the fact that they're saying they're the bad race instead of another race being bad is some sort of improvement, but I would say not a concept worth revisiting.
Not a fixable one, you know, Pat?
Sometimes you get to the point where you're just like, you know what?
Let's not try to, let's say, fascism.
Let's not remix it and see what we can come up with and try it again.
Let's just skip it.
Let's just rule it out.
KKK?
Let's just rule it out.
Let's just take it out.
Let's not try to fix it.
Let's not try to come up with a different way of doing a local white space.
Let's get rid of them entirely.
Sounds like the right approach to me.
Yeah, it does.
Unbelievable.
And this is so constant right now.
Raytheon, again, this is not, I don't know, to use some example, like Starbucks, right?
Like some left-wing organization, some left-wing company.
I don't know, some like organic, you know, bi-local hemp salesman, you know, coming up with an organ with a, with a, with a seminar like this.
This is a freaking defense contractor.
Yeah.
Second largest in the country after Lockheed Martin.
That's pretty amazing.
Now, one thing you should stay away from.
First of all, one thing you need to do, Pat, I want to make sure we understand what you need to do, what you need to stay away from.
You need to, according to the Raytheon internal documents, you need to think about telling your employees to do this.
You have to, quote, identify everyone's race.
Now, your employees, if they spend a minute trying to identify every other employee's race, what you should do with that employee is fire them immediately.
Get them the hell out of your company.
If you have employees that are taking time out of your workday to figure out and like, what, document everyone's race?
Pat, has there ever been a historical example where a group of people documenting others' race has turned out poorly?
Has that ever gone the wrong way?
Like if you were to make a giant list of people and try to figure out like, I don't know, what percentage black they are, what percentage Jewish they are, let's just say in a theoretical world, could that turn out poorly?
Oh, wow.
In the last 15 minutes, I can't think of a situation like that.
If I was to go back maybe, I don't know, into the sort of early to mid last century, I could possibly think of a place or two where maybe that occurred.
Okay, okay.
So there is maybe one, but we shouldn't probably think about it and learn anything from it, right?
No.
Okay.
No.
How about you must listen to the experience of marginalized identities and give those with such identities the floor on meetings or on calls, even if it means silencing yourself.
So let's say you have a really good idea for a missile.
Okay.
But, you know, a Mongolian person is in the room, a Mongolian American, and they say, you know what?
I, as a Mongolian American, am oppressed.
I believe the missiles should be shot with slingshots.
Let me have the floor for, let's say, an hour.
What you should do is silence yourself in your rocket propulsion technology and say, you know, we got to go slingshots because, look, they are a marginalized group and that's your job.
And that would be part of deconstructing my privilege, wouldn't it?
It would really and understanding how white male behavior is devastating to racial minorities.
Silencing Critical Race Theory 00:04:27
Right.
And in that situation where you're, you know, you're, you're suppressing your own idea for theirs, why you've done a good thing there.
Yeah, there you go.
Done a good thing.
And I think we could look at this at three different levels here, Pat, right?
The level of like higher education, university teaching, should critical race theory be discussed.
I don't want my kid necessarily, I don't want to pay to send my kid to a place where they're going to learn about that.
But you know what?
Academic discussion, whatever.
You can do whatever you want.
It shouldn't be banned, certainly.
Although I wouldn't want to send my kid to a school that was doing it.
Secondarily, you have this level, right?
Raytheon, companies.
Would I want to work at a company?
What do I want to invest in a company?
Would I want to, if I was running a company, do this sort of nonsense and teach critical race theory or something similar to it to my employees, I would say absolutely not.
Should it be banned?
No.
I mean, I think if Raytheon wants to freaking waste their people's time with this nonsense, I don't think you can ban it.
You know, we live in a country where people should be able to do these things if they want to.
However, horrible idea.
The next level, though, is the one we're talking about more frequently, which is should these be taught in public schools to K to 12?
Right.
And that, should that be banned?
Sure, it should.
Absolutely should not be taught to kids K to 12.
And so the defense there from the left has been what, this is what Vox's framing of it was last week.
Many Republican lawmakers cite critical race theory as a reason to ban discussions about racism in schools.
First of all, I've never heard that before.
I've never heard a Republican say anything like that.
No one says that they don't want to discuss racism in schools.
No one says they want to say, you know what, let's present slavery positively.
I've never, I went through the whole school system in public schools.
Never did I hear word one that racism was good.
Never did I hear word one that slavery was kind of a positive.
Never taught.
But they say the way they frame it is Republicans are trying to ban discussion of racism in schools, which is not at all what's going on.
And then they say, though, there's little evidence that the framework of critical race theory is even being taught in K through 12 schools.
So it's not a bad thing, but even if it were being taught, even if it were a bad thing, it's not actually being taught in K-12 schools.
Here are two stories from just the past week.
The nation's largest teachers union has approved a plan to promote critical race theory in all 50 states and 14,000 local school districts.
Does that sound like a K-12 problem?
It does to me.
Ibram X. Kendi, the guy who wrote How to Become an Anti-Racist and Anti-Racist Baby, he is scheduled to speak Wednesday at the American Federation of Teachers Teach Conference.
This is absolutely a massive issue here.
And it should be thought about and it should be out of our schools.
You want to start your own private school where you teach kids critical race theory and kids pay their own money to go to it and blah, blah, blah.
That is allowed in the United States of America, even if we don't like it.
However, public schools, absolutely not.
And states absolutely have the right to put standards on what is taught in the curriculum of their schools.
Of course they do.
Of course they do.
The federal government doesn't have much of a role in it, but the state government does.
And the local governments do even more.
And the idea that this is just a non-issue because Democrats find it to be unpopular and they realize they're on the wrong side of the polls on it does not mean it goes away.
Yeah, 61% of Americans don't want critical race theory taught in their schools.
61%.
Triple 8-727-B-E-C-K.
All right, spring and into summer.
That's where we are.
In Texas, that means, of course, it's 947,000 degrees every day.
But no matter where you are, if you're at a really nice place or a really hot place, you want to have a RECTEC.
Why?
Because grilling is part of summer.
And RecTech does this better than anybody.
But it also means if you happen to be in an area where it is 174 degrees and you don't want to be above your grill thinking about it just over it the entire time, RechTech, you can control this from inside your air-conditioned house on your phone.
Make sure everything is cooked perfectly remotely while you're watching golf, you're watching TV.
You don't have to think about it at all.
It's all being grilled perfectly.
Decolonize Your Bookshelf 00:04:22
Go out, scoop it up, bring it back inside the air conditioning and enjoy it.
That's what RechTech brings to you.
Perfect cooking.
Do it with all sorts of great technology.
Nobody does it better than RechTech.
You can follow RechTech on all their social media and sign up for the newsletter.
It's R-E-C-T-E-Q, RECTEC, R-E-C-T-E-Q with a Q at the end.
Visit rectechwithaq.com, R-E-C-T-E-Q.com.
It's rechtech.com.
10 seconds station id it's pat and stew for glenn uh How do I decolonize my bookshelf, by the way?
I need to give a call to Raytheon and see if they can give me some advice on that.
How do I decolonize my bookshelf?
It's a great question, Pat.
One of my books, Imperial, and it's rounding up all the little books around it to try to control them.
That's true.
Is that what's happening on my bookshelf?
Have you ever seen Bookshelf 2 invade Bookshelf 3 before?
I have not.
It occurs all the time.
But I'm not watching my bookshelf that carefully, so I guess I need to do that.
I mean, the ridiculousness of this is completely out of control.
How do you also participate in reparations?
How am I going to do that?
I start, do I just give money to BIPOC people around me?
Yeah.
If I see a BIPOC, like a black indigenous person of color, I just give them money.
The easiest way that I do it is I just carry around envelopes of cash.
And when I see someone who looks to have darker skin than I, I hand them an envelope.
That is reparations.
And that's how I do it personally.
But I think there's different ways.
Right.
What world is this?
What world is this?
This is insanity.
And by the way, this is all stuff.
This isn't stuff that we're making up.
This is stuff that is from internal documents from the Raytheon in this particular case.
And they have videos of this stuff going on.
That's crazy.
And luckily, I think it's so offensive to the foundations of America to say we should judge people based on their skin color.
That is now so offensive.
Look, we went through a period where that was going on, obviously.
We have worked so hard to leave that in the dust.
And now here we are, and the left is like, you know what?
We should do it all again.
What if we do judge people by their skin color?
What if we do discriminate based on race?
And by the way, that word discriminate is used in their literature.
Ibram X. Kendi writes, the only solution for past discrimination is present discrimination.
The only solution for present discrimination is future discrimination.
They are literally advocating for discrimination.
That's what this is.
Just against white people.
Just against different groups.
The non-oppressed groups, the groups that have done all the evil.
And it's like, I got to, look, I have to tell you the truth here.
I hold no responsibility for slavery.
None.
I had nothing to do with it.
That's cute that you're white privileged.
And I oppose it every step of the way.
It's adorable.
I didn't hold slaves.
I don't think anyone should have held slaves.
I don't want it to return.
I don't want local white spaces to return.
I don't want segregation to return.
It's the left that wants these things to return.
And they continually advocate for the return of white spaces, of segregation, of discrimination, of racism.
What you've just said is devastating to racial minorities.
Devastating.
You might want to decolonize your bookshelf, my friend.
Okay, maybe that's where you start.
Okay.
I guess I haven't done that.
By decolonizing that bookshelf.
Then get back to me.
I will say I don't pick my books based on the skin color of the authors.
So maybe I should change that philosophy.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.
888-727-BECK.
Neiman Marcus Store Attack 00:11:04
Yes.
Yesterday we told you about this sort of attack on Neiman Marcus.
I think this was in New York City, right?
Isn't that where it happened?
Where they just ran into the store.
We actually have the video of it now.
Here's what happened at Neiman Marcus.
People just went into the store, smashed the display case, and stole extremely expensive purses and then ran out of the store.
And here you see them coming out of the store like clowns out of a little clown car.
But with what was reported to be about $150,000 worth of merchandise.
Unreal.
Amazing.
And then you see as they're going away, there's a guy filming everyone running away on his phone.
And then he kind of turns to the right.
You see he's wearing handcuffs.
So either there's just like an SNM guy out there filming people relieving Neiman Marcus or it seemed to be a police officer.
Like, shouldn't you be running out?
I don't know.
Maybe I've lost track of what's supposed to be happening.
Either a security officer of some sort or a police officer who I guess maybe just thought there was too many people and decided it was impossible to do something.
I don't know.
Come on.
I mean, there's got to be a way to prevent that.
Are we supposed to radio others?
Maybe it was just a security officer for one of the stores across the street and they didn't have any responsibility.
I don't know.
It didn't seem like it.
It didn't look good.
No, it doesn't.
And if this kind of stuff is going to happen, wouldn't you?
I don't know.
I think I'd put people at the entrances and exits to make sure that once they're running toward the door with $15,000 purses or whatever it was they had, that there's somebody there to stop them.
Before they get out and get in the car and take off.
Yeah, it's interesting.
And they're gone for good.
Only reason we have this video is the person.
Someone in the store across the street saw the people running into the store and realized what was going on because it had already happened to them previously.
So they pulled themselves into into their store and locked the doors to make sure no one came into their store and then filmed across the street.
This is uh, becoming a.
Yeah, you know, you've heard the term, the smash and grab.
Right, I mean, it's been around, but it definitely seems like it is much more prominent now, and this particular incident was one where people ran in smashed display cases, glass flying all over the place uh, and they stole really expensive purses and ran out the front door.
That's different than what is happening we talked about it a little bit yesterday where people are walking in with giant garbage bags and just filling their bags with merchandise and walking right out the front door and every unencumbered by any security or any employee, they just let them go, and the policy of these stores is like, well, we don't want physical confrontation with people who do this.
Call the cops who are going to show up far after the.
The people have already left and probably not do much of anything because it's not so much of a priority.
Some of these places that are defunding police and that sort of attitude is is active.
They intentionally are not doing anything to follow up on these crimes and the city's telling them they can't, so the officers are are powerless in this particular situation.
Here we're talking about grand theft.
I mean, this is thousands and thousands of dollars.
These purses are not cheap and you know, I guess I guess we're supposed to not care because, you know, Neiman Marcus is a big corporation.
These are evil rich people.
They have too much anyway.
Uh, equity what happened to equity?
Well, you know, the equality of opportunity says each person can try to work their entire life to try to afford one of these purses, if you so choose, for some dumb reason.
Uh, the equality of outcome is, well, you know what.
That rich person uh in New York has that purse, so should the person running out of the store with it?
Yeah, I deserve it too, and uh, that's obviously what they, what they believe.
Um, this uh actually took place in San Francisco which um, just experienced Target and Walgreens, several of them leaving their city because of theft like this, where people would just walk in and as you mentioned yesterday, they would just clear stuff off the shelves with their arms and just dump it into a gigantic garbage bag and walk out of the store.
And that happened to them so much that they just closed their store rather than stay open and continue to get robbed.
This is, it just feels like when you see stories like this, when you see videos like this, it feels like the disintegration of our civilization, doesn't it?
It's like, how do you combat this?
If nobody can raise a hand to any of those who are stealing from them, then how do you stop that?
You don't have a chance.
It's a real breakdown of a fundamental foundation of our society.
You know, we don't realize how many people we trust every day.
Constantly, you're trusting people that you don't know and never interact with.
I mean, think about you're driving down a road and there's a little yellow, a couple of yellow lines in between you and a multi-thousand pound vehicle driving right at you.
And any one of those people could just jam their steering wheel to the left at the last second and kill you, right?
You trust, we have a societal trust built in that you don't do that.
Yes, there's a law there that says you don't do it, but what does that matter, right?
What we're really talking about there is societal trust.
You are trusting that that person doesn't want to injure themselves and doesn't want to intentionally injure you.
And so we all go around and live together and operate under these rules of society that prop up our society and make it functional.
When you eliminate the punishments, when you encourage and explain away criminal behavior and then do not punish it and take the people engaged in it off the streets, you have a situation like we're seeing now where people walk into stores, take this stuff and walk out and think to themselves, well, I'm not going to get caught because no one in this store wants to be called a racist.
No one in this store wants to get into a physical confrontation where they have to put their hands on someone, God forbid, to stop them from committing a crime.
Yeah.
When they're the ones that are going to be on the wrong side of the YouTube video that's edited later on for the press.
And then at the end of the day, if for some reason the person does get caught, they don't get prosecuted.
They don't get punished.
They don't get taken off the street.
They get immediately released.
And then they have a warm and accepting audience from the media to say why the reason they did all this and had to do it was structural racism.
You build a society like that.
You've taken out any incentive to follow the rules that underpin your civilization.
And that's where we are right now in many areas, not everywhere.
You know, you can go to a mall and you very well may not see this behavior.
But people who live around here in nice suburbs have told me stories about seeing this stuff happen.
It's not just, you know, in some, you know, it's not just the burning down of a target in Minneapolis after George Floyd, which we were told we shouldn't care about because it's only property.
This is all over the country now.
And if we do not have society pushing back on it, it will just escalate.
Yeah.
Escalate and escalate.
There has to be some force on the opposite side or it just continues to happen.
Right.
Yeah.
People have to stand up and put a stop to it.
They just do.
And they have to figure out a way in these stores to make sure this doesn't happen anymore.
Neiman and Marcus, you need to have armed security all over the place.
I mean, Neiman Marcus is a store selling $15,000 purses.
It's insanity that this could happen there.
It really is.
You can understand where it might happen at a 7-Eleven.
Yeah.
And it has happened at 7-Elevens, and we've seen it repeatedly.
But Neiman Marcus, yeah, they need armed guards.
And people need, there has to be intervention into these crises.
A lot of times there are armed guards and they're told not to do anything.
They're just essentially billboards that say, please don't rob us.
But when you do rob us, we're not going to do anything because the corporation doesn't want to sit here and have a scandal on their hands because they know what the media will do with a story like this.
They're going to give a sob story.
They're going to give all the things.
Like, let's say there was some actual discrimination in the company five years ago.
They're going to root that out and make that the front page story.
Look what they did to Starbucks.
Again, like, I'm not, I have no allegiance to Starbucks.
Starbucks is a left-wing corporation that is constantly beating you over the head with every piece of BLM level nonsense that they can churn out.
And they enforced one of their policies to not let someone go to the bathroom or sit in their building without buying something.
And they were called the racist.
They had to shut down their chain, had to in quotes here, but they shut down their chain for a day of racial understanding and education.
Their entire chain of restaurants.
Incredible.
Because they did something completely normal that every single person in our society has always known.
If you go into a place and you don't buy something, you don't get to take advantage of the indoors.
You don't get to sit.
You don't get to go to the bathroom.
You don't get to sit at the table for 45 minutes if you don't buy anything.
Now, look, can you do it sometimes?
Sure, but we all understand that if they say no to you, you should respect it.
It's their place.
Yeah.
And didn't they go the complete opposite direction?
They just said, anybody can use the, I think the outcome of that was anybody could use their bathrooms, right?
Anyone can use their bathrooms.
Anybody can come in here and sit down and not buy anything, and you can use the bathroom.
And didn't they fire the manager who tried to enforce their own policy?
They did, yeah.
Yeah.
So why, again, this is why this stuff is happening.
But when you take away those basic fundamental guidelines, this is how societies crumble.
It leads you to wonder, why are the homeless dropping turds on the sidewalks in San Francisco rather than just go into a Starbucks and go to bathroom there?
Wouldn't that be too far?
It's too far.
Climate Change and White Supremacy 00:04:32
Too far.
Is that what it is?
Yeah, that's why.
Well, we talked about the guy yesterday in the bucket in the subway.
In the bucket there cleaning the floors with the mop in the bucket.
Oh, yeah.
And he just kind of just decided to go there.
So bizarre.
What has happened to our civilization?
Triple 8, 727, back.
It's Pat and Stuff for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
You listen to my show, Pat Gray, unleashed every weekday, immediately before this program, 6 to 8 Central, 7 to 9 Eastern Time on Blaze Radio and Television, and then pretty much anytime you want.
Not pretty much anytime you want on podcast, wherever you get your podcast.
Yep.
And make sure to do the same with Studios America.
Subscribe to the channel and rate and review.
Five stars is the appropriate number of stars.
I happen to be wearing today, Pat, the learn, then protest.
The order is important.
So you should learn first, then protest.
Why?
And the order is important.
What is the importance of that?
Yeah.
So what's happening now is a lot of people are protesting, burning down their cities.
Okay.
Then they're learning.
Or maybe not even at all, actually.
They'll just be protesting as well.
What if I heard about it from a friend of mine?
No, you should check out that.
Somebody got killed.
They shouldn't have.
Yeah.
What if you were to look into the details of the crime?
What if I did?
Yeah.
Would that make a difference?
It's not going to make a difference.
It will, right?
If you learn about a story and you wait until you've learned to protest, that usually works out better.
So this is a great t-shirt to wear if you happen to have a left-wing protest in your city.
All right.
You kind of wear it and it just says, learn, then protest.
The order is important.
Seems like a crazy concept to me.
I'm not sure I understand it.
Yeah.
You can get it at learnthenprotest.com.
Oh, you've got, it's got its own website.
It's got its own website.
Your t-shirt has its own website.
It does.
That's cool.
It's an active entity in and of itself.
Now, if I went to one place, are they aggregated there somewhere where you can get all your merch?
StuDoesmerch.com.
You have yours up there too, right?
You have your.
Yes, it's a website near.
If you go to studoesmerch.com, you can just click on Pat Gray.
It's patheadshop.com.
Okay.
Yeah, patheadshop.com.
I'll kind of go to the same places.
So that's where you can go.
All right.
Triple 8-727-BECK.
According to the University of Maryland, 13 people.
Now we've heard.
Okay.
This is the biggest threat America faces right now.
What?
Climate change?
No.
Well, I mean, it's tied.
Okay.
Tied with climate change.
Tied with climate change.
For the biggest threat, it's white supremacy.
White supremacy.
White supremacy.
Really?
Yeah.
It's the biggest threat we face.
Tied, of course, with climate change.
According to the University of Maryland, 13 people die each year as a result of white supremacist violence in America.
13?
13 people.
Not 12.
Like a whole baker's dozen.
According to who again?
Of people, according to the University of Maryland.
That's a high number, Pat.
It is.
It's the same number.
This is how high it is.
It's the same number as the number of people who die from vending machines falling on them every year.
13 people die being squashed by vending machines every year.
So when will we do something about this?
When will CNN cover the threat of vending machines?
You know, with the same enthusiasm they cover white supremacy.
Pat how many is 25 more than 13?
In your understanding?
In my understanding, yes.
I'm not a big mathematician, but I'm going to say yes.
Now, this story is from October 2020, but it says at least 25 Americans were killed during the protests of the George Floyd situation last year.
Wait, some say as high as 36.
By white supremacists?
No.
No.
Oh.
No.
White supremacists didn't have any.
The protesters then that were.
No.
No.
No, it was.
It was Black Lives Matter.
I mean, we saw some of them on video and Tifa killing people.
That's more than the white supremacy every year.
Seems like it.
Huh.
Warfare Has Changed Forever 00:14:59
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Stuff for Glenn, 888-727-B-E-C-K.
Number to call.
So, hey, we're almost out of Afghanistan.
Left Begram Air Force Base and Kind of sneaked out in the middle of the night and left the lights on, I think.
And didn't tell the Afghans about it.
We'll get into that a little bit.
Coming up in about 60 seconds.
The Glenn Beck program.
If you're a homeowner and you're the type who is fiscally responsible right now, it could be a great time to make a phone call and make a massive change for the better in your financial life.
Mortgage rates began sinking over a year ago.
I mean, they've been low for a long time, but we know they're going to be going up, especially with all the printing going on right now.
And now we're seeing mortgage rates in the twos, in the 2% range.
I got one from American Financing in the 2% range.
How insane is that?
Who would have thought that was ever going to be possible?
There's no good reason not to give American Financing a call about this to check if you happen to have a home and you're looking to maybe refinance.
What if you could be saving hundreds of dollars a month?
What about thousands of dollars a month?
Can you really ignore that type of change?
You wouldn't be restarting your loan if you refinance.
You can genuinely save a ton of money on this stuff, and American Financing is going to make it easy for you.
Maybe consolidating debt that you have into something that's going to be easier to pay off is the right move.
That comes from a trusted family company that has been helping people just like you and me and Glenn for over 20 years.
The choice is clear.
AmericanFinancing.net.
Call American Financing at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440 or go to AmericanFinancing.net.

Pat and Stu.
Again for Glenn, he'll be back on Monday.
So it's finally happened, the pullout of Afghanistan after a mere 20 years.
I mean, is it too soon?
I don't think so.
I don't think so either.
I don't think so.
Are we, and are we the last of the coalition to still be there?
The British aren't there anymore right now.
No, yeah, they're gone.
They've been gone for a while.
So it's just us.
It is just us.
Well, it was just us.
I mean, it's basically dot now.
Now it's the Afghans.
Heard a report this morning.
They're going to keep a few hundred troops in the country mainly to protect the embassy, which is sensible, right?
Like if you're going to have an embassy there in a country that's going to be a good idea.
If you're not going to keep them there, then you move the embassy.
You move the people out of the embassy.
Yeah, you just abandon the country entirely.
But if you're going to have an embassy there, you should have troops there to protect the people in it.
So we left the other day.
Our troops left Bagram Air Base basically in the middle of the night and didn't tell the Afghans that we were leaving.
So a group of people went in and looted the place before the Afghans got in there.
Which is great.
This is great.
A 14 square mile Air Force base.
Yes.
Gigantic area.
And, you know, so I guess what happened was there were some rumors that we were going to be leaving.
I mean, we all, they presented this in the media.
They're like, well ahead of schedule.
Well, Trump had it scheduled for May.
So July would not be ahead of schedule.
Biden just said he just changed the schedule to September and then left in July after the initial scheduling.
So like he, this is how the how the left gets away with this crap with the media, I'll never understand.
But I guess when you have someone who you're rooting for, it's a lot easier to justify such things.
But basically, there was a rumor that they were going to be leaving.
They just turned the lights out and everyone was like, wait, why did all the lights go off over there?
We should just go over there and see what's going on.
Realize nobody was there.
And there's like photos of people like carrying off cases of like Red Bull full, like energy drinks and stuff, right?
Bizarre, bizarre circumstance.
And it's hard to imagine that this turns out well.
Yeah, the problem is the Taliban will probably now just retake Afghanistan, right?
That's what I expect to happen, is that terrorists will just get back together and reclaim the country.
But what would you do?
Just stay there forever?
What's the alternative?
If you don't pull out and we don't ever come home and we leave troops there forever, we probably could keep the Taliban at bay.
But when you leave, what can you do?
There's all sorts of reporting where Afghan troops are handing over weapons to the Taliban.
The Taliban now supposedly, but the best estimates are they control one-third of the country already as we're leaving.
I mean, we've basically just given up on this.
And look, you can make the argument that our mission should have been more narrow.
And that mission was accomplished, right?
I mean, you know, Osama bin Laden is dead.
Al-Qaeda is not really the force that it once was.
But, you know, our mission was larger than that.
We could have left in 2011.
Yeah.
You know, I mean, Osama bin Laden specifically as an individual was 2011.
But I mean, there was massive damage to Al-Qaeda generally well before that.
I do hesitate at times with this idea that we should judge a war by how long it goes on for.
You know, like, first of all, this has not been a war in the way that we think of warfare for a long time.
That's true.
You mentioned earlier, Pat, late last hour, that 13 people per year die from getting hit by vending machines that fall over.
Well, in 2020, 11 people died in Afghanistan.
11?
11, less than the amount of people who die from vending machines falling over them in the United States.
Not to minimize, of course, the loss of our.
Totally.
I mean, like, but I mean, when you look at the deaths that occurred, several of them were motor vehicle accidents.
Oh, wow.
Right.
There were some that were attacks.
Some of them were attacks by Afghan troops.
Yeah, that's the toughest to take.
That's the toughest to take for sure.
I'm not saying any of these don't aren't crucial, but I mean, like, here we go.
Non-hostile vehicle accident, non-hostile incident, non-hostile vehicle accident rollover, non-hostile, non-hostile.
Yep.
Here's a hostile.
Hostile fire, small arms file, green on blue attack.
So that was by an Afghan troop.
Same thing for the next one.
Then a non-hostile aircraft crash.
Six.
Non-hostile aircraft crash.
And then hostile fire IED attack.
So when you think about a traditional warfare attack, I'd say you would say one.
I mean, you wouldn't necessarily think off the top of your head of a green on blue type of attack.
Right.
But you have to count.
All of these count, obviously.
You know, if you have a kid over there who died in an aircraft crash, you're not going to feel any better about it.
But that stuff happens in the United States.
And we have aircraft crashes from military test pilots in the United States that happen.
That's not to say that it's nothing.
It's something.
And look, we have to at some point, even if it's just for spending reasons, like you can't just spend money maintaining another country forever.
But like to think of this as everyone's like, this is America's forever war.
Can you look at a year like 2020 and say, okay, that's a war year?
Remember, what's the alternative of war?
What we used to do in war was, yes, the wars would end in three to five years because hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people were dead.
Yeah, you fought them full bore, full on.
It was just warfare all the time.
It wasn't like, okay, we're going to take this country and we're going to maintain it.
And we're going to get attacked every once in a while.
I mean, that's what's been happening in Afghanistan for what, 10 years at least?
Maybe more than that.
If you look at the fatalities, U.S. fatalities in Afghanistan, really you had a peak.
The highest number was 2010 at 498.
Now, again, 498 was 10 minutes of a battle of previous wars.
As sad as all of this is, and every loss of life is incredibly, I mean, you don't have to, I don't have to sell this audience on the fact that we all care about our military members, but war has changed in a way that I think is positive, even though there's no longer necessarily these days where you walk away with the parades and everything else.
I mean, 498 was the peak in 2010.
Then it went to 415, 310, 128, and it's been under 100 since 2015 or 14.
It was 55, 22, then 13, 15, 14, 24, 11.
Then that was 2020 was 11.
Now, again, I went through those 11.
Only one of them is what you would think traditionally of a war death.
A couple of others from allies that should have been helping us and turned on us.
A couple of those, it was three.
And the rest were non-hostile events where, you know, car crashes, airplane crashes, things that were terrible, but also not what you would think of as a traditional war death.
Did you happen to read the latest Malcolm Gladwell book, The Bomber Mafia?
By any chance?
It's really good.
I mean, it's really, really well done.
And I like Malcolm's stuff.
I mean, it's always interesting to me.
But this is about basically the idea of the early Air Force where they decided their vision of what war could become where they would drop guided bombs, not just bombs that plastered an entire, you know, just denigrated an entire civilian population without thinking about it.
Their vision of trying to create the technology that would allow us to target the military installations we wanted to hit and not just carpet bomb societies.
And one of the main proponents of this was in World War II and got to the point where he was leading the operations against Japan from the air and eventually lost his gig because the technology wasn't really ready.
They didn't really have it ready and they wound up changing to carpet bombing, basically.
But you realize that, like, you know, when we think of Japan, obviously in World War II, we think of the atomic bomb.
So much was done with essentially napalm type devices, firebombing these places because the way their homes were built were very vulnerable to fire and they were very close to each other.
And we were just, you know, dropping.
And there was a lot of that during Vietnam to clear away the jungle.
Yeah, exactly.
But they were doing it to clear away, you know, communities and cities.
And I'm not questioning these tactics in that like this war needed to end.
And I'm glad that we dropped the atomic bomb.
I'm not like anybody who thinks the opposite of that.
But like that was the choice at the time.
It was like, do you essentially kill 100,000 people tonight in their homes, essentially the equivalent of what we saw in Miami, right?
Where the entire building just catches on fire or collapses and everyone in it dies.
And do you do this over multiple square miles every night for a year?
That was warfare.
Yeah.
Look, Afghanistan is a different situation.
And to sit here and say, like, you look at these years, years.
Do you have the total from the whole war?
It's something like 4,000 or 5,000, right?
2,452.
2,000 this year, by the way.
I have only up till 2020 here, but 2,452.
Now, I think the number you're thinking of is 3,596, which was total coalition deaths.
So that includes the UK and other.
455 from the UK, 689 total in all the other countries combined.
Iraq was 4,910 total coalition, 4,586 U.S.
But again, even Iraq, you look at Iraq, this is since 2012.
2012, there was two deaths for the U.S. 2004.
I'm missing 2013 on my chart here, but 2014, 4, then 8, 20, 22, 17, 12, 11.
And again, you look at the details to them, and many of them are the same sad situations, vehicle accidents, rollovers, non-hostile.
There are some that are hostile.
I mean, these are still dangerous areas for sure.
But I think judging a war, what we should look at when we judge a war should be, of course, the outcome.
Did we stop people attacking us if that's why we went to war?
Which in Afghanistan, I would argue that was the reason we went.
And we stopped that.
I mean, we've interrupted a lot of it.
And also, the main thing is how many, the most important thing to me is how many of our service people do we lose, not how long the war goes on.
Look, it's uncomfortable to say, and this is true, that people who fought in, who went to Afghanistan after 9-11 have children who are now serving in Afghanistan or very recently.
It's hard to think in those terms.
But the fact if we could return both of those people back here, that's much more important than the timeline.
Oh, yeah.
And we have changed warfare.
I mean, people are dying a lot less in wars, and that is good.
It is much, it's no longer the drain on human life that it once was, at least not at the moment.
We can take a little solace out of that, I think.
888-727-BECK.
It's Pat and Stu, us.
Stu, does this say when Britain left Afghanistan and Iraq?
I don't have that information.
The Cost of War 00:07:04
I can find it here in a second if you want.
I mean, they have had no deaths in Afghanistan since 2016.
I bet that's when they pulled out.
And basically, and they had two in 2015, so somewhere in there, I guess, but I don't have it in front of me right now.
It's been just the U.S. for a while.
And look, I think we've learned, as we knew going in, as they said in Princess Bride, that a land war in Asia is not necessarily the way to go.
It does not always turn out well.
You don't always get what you want out of it.
And I think we've realized that we're not going to get what we want.
What was that Ficini said about that?
Only slightly less dangerous.
It's a land war in Asia.
Something to that effect.
I think Land War in Asia was number one, but only slightly less well-known.
That's what it was.
Challenge a Sicilian.
Was it a Sicilian?
Yeah, I think he was a Sicilian.
It's been a while since I watched Princess Bride.
If Ted Cruz is listening right now, the senator would be able to give us these quotes.
That's his game.
It's a great movie, and he knows a Princess Bridge Bridge Bridge.
That's a hotline if it rings.
It's probably Senator Cruz.
What I remember, he could do large portions of the entire script of that movie out of memory.
He's got not a photographic, but a it's something close to that.
It's something close to that.
If he hears it or something, he remembers it.
So, yeah, it's something very, very impressive.
All right.
Triple 8-727-B-E-C-K is our number to call.
Let's go to Eric in Maine.
Hey, Eric, you're on the show.
How are you doing, guys?
Doing good.
Good, good.
First time caller.
Welcome.
Thank you.
I would just like to touch on something that I've heard, I think, Glenn touch on a little bit.
I've heard a few other commentators.
And that is January 6th, putting together a select committee to find out what happened on January 6th.
You know, in my opinion, if Democrats want to know what happened, all they got to do is look in the closest mirror.
You know, we had about a year worth of rioting, looting, arson, armed attacks on police stations and on a federal courthouse or houses even.
And all of that was okay because they were protesting racism, so they could even go out in the pandemic and mill around without social distancing.
And doctors saying it was a public health issue of racism, which was more important than the pandemic.
I mean, one of the most disgraceful things I've ever seen in medicine.
I mean, the fact that a doctor who's supposed to do no harm would come out and say, yeah, go out in a pandemic because, oh, because racism arguments and political nonsense is pathetic.
But the rest of your argument, Eric, is.
You know, my point really is, I think the people on January 6th saw all of this going on.
Nobody doing or saying anything and Democrats encouraging it.
You had the vice president, the now vice president, actually helping to get people bailed out of jail for doing it.
You had Democrat mayors and governors not confronting these people.
You had prosecutors and judges letting people go.
So they thought it was okay.
Yeah, they probably figured, you know, I should get equal treatment under law.
I mean, you had Nancy Pelosi say people will do what people will do.
Right.
Appreciate it.
Thanks, Eric.
I mean, that could be part of the equation.
They still shouldn't have done it because conservatives, especially, know better.
Certainly.
You know, look, there were definitely a lot of Trump supporters who were doing things that a lot of people, by the way, doing nothing and just went to a rally and walked away.
There were some that did really bad things, and those people should be held responsible for them.
However, the generalized point here of normalizing political violence being a bad idea, I'm 100% on board with.
Yes, absolutely.
And that's what they did over the course of the year last year.
They said burning down police stations was okay because racism.
I'm like, no, no, I'm never going to be okay with that.
The same way I'm never going to be okay with violence against police officers at any time.
What was it, 25 people killed last year in those riots?
That was one estimate.
One estimate.
25 and 35.
I've seen it as high as 40 or 45 and several police officers.
So, yeah.
I could tell you, it's a lot higher than the deaths that happened in the George Floyd incident.
As tragic as that one was, it was a lot higher than the protest afterward.
And I'm pretty sure racism isn't solved.
I could be wrong on that.
We'll have to check the stats on it, but I'm pretty sure it's not solved yet.

The Nancy Pelosi Sucks pen is maybe one of the greatest products of all time.
It is pretty amazing.
Denying Black Bodies 00:10:14
We always get emails and social media messages from people who just bring them to their office, the Nancy Pelosi Sucks pen.
People don't notice at first?
Yeah, they give it to their clients to use sign paperwork.
It's actually a pretty nice pen.
Yeah, it is.
It is kind of a nice pen.
Or their liberal friends who pick it up and write things and then realize that they're holding a Nancy Pelosi suck.
And then the shock settles in.
NancyPelosisuxPen.com, if you want to check that out.
All right.
Found out in the last little while how racist virtually everything is.
Everything is racist.
Just today alone, fireworks are racist.
We have that story.
Do you know why fireworks are racist?
It's as obvious as the nose on your face.
Why fireworks are racist?
Of course.
You and your white privilege.
All right.
I hope you're happy.
Because they celebrated a colonialist society?
No, but I'm sure that could be part of it.
But it's not what was stated in the new article that fireworks is racist.
It's because the smoke and all of the fallout from the fireworks lands disproportionately on BIPOC neighborhoods.
Duh.
Wait, wouldn't that?
Minority neighborhoods are the recipients of all of that pollution.
Oh, so they're saying from the like fireworks themselves or like city fireworks.
Yes, it all lands on BIPOC residences.
I will say I had never thought of that.
Yeah, think about that.
Yeah, because you're white privilege.
You don't have to think of that.
I specifically, when I went to Zillow, I searched for non-firework debris communities.
And they were all white.
What I responded just said, are you white?
Click yes, click yes, and then I click yes, and then it let me go to the site.
Because if you're not, they don't allow you to buy homes in did you get like a retinal scan to make sure that you're white so that the website.
Okay, that was it.
Good.
So, yeah, they can make anything into racism.
Math, math is racist.
U.S. educators slamming math workbooks.
It's racist.
Educators condemn the $1 million dismantling racism in mathematics program funded by Bill Gates.
So I love this.
This is liberals eating their own, which tells teachers not to push students to find correct answers.
Unbelievable.
Because that promotes white supremacy.
Okay.
You start getting right answers and you're getting into white territory there, I guess.
How racist is that?
Yeah, this is the most purely racist part of this, I think, where you're saying things like showing up on time, getting correct answers at math, being polite are all parts of white culture.
Those are white things.
Ridiculous.
Why would you make those things out to be racism when they're all good things?
Yeah, right.
And what they're saying is they're not good things, right?
I guess.
I guess so.
But if you were to turn on a white supremacist podcast right now, right?
If you were to turn on David Duke's podcast, he might very well tell you, you know what's wrong with, he wouldn't use BIPOCs, I don't think.
He would probably use a different word.
But if he was going to say what's wrong with people of color, he might say, you know, they can't do math.
They don't show up on time.
They're not polite.
He would make those arguments.
And now we have the Ibram Kendys and Robin D'Angelos and all of the people trying to push critical race theory, intersectionality, all of this nonsense on us.
Those people are the ones telling you the same things that David Duke told you last week.
What does that tell you?
And you know, David Duke doesn't even say those kinds of things anymore.
I don't know if he does.
I have not kept up with him.
I think he's like mellowed over time.
So the things that they're actually saying about minorities are worse than what David Duke would say.
I don't know.
I don't know anything, honestly, about using David Duke as a historical example of someone who had supported this sort of stuff.
Because he's the only racist like that we really know.
Yeah, he's the name of the KKK member.
People would also say maybe Richard Spencer would be an example of this at the moment.
But again, like I'm only assigning a name because it's obvious what I mean by this.
Yes, right?
Like you take a guy who, I don't know, a guy in a hood.
You have a KKK meeting somewhere in the country.
We found out today that 13 people per year in the United States die from white supremacy.
So we do know that it does occasionally happen.
We do know that some people support this asinine ideology of white supremacy.
Does still occur.
It's just not nearly as big a problem as the media tries to make it out to be.
Yeah, not the biggest problem facing the United States.
Just in numbers.
I mean, it's just not.
I mean, it's, it's a to the extent that it exists, it is legitimately horrible.
But to the, you have to factor in the extent that it exists.
You know, there's a group that blocked a freeway this week, a black supremacist group, at least.
And they've been making news lately a little bit.
They had, you know, they're heavily armed.
There was another group called the Not Fing Around Coalition that was recently in the news, very heavily armed black nationalist group that gave us one of their members who eventually killed a police officer and was arrested recently.
These groups exist and they should be taken seriously.
To the extent that they exist, they are very bad.
However, they're not the biggest problem in the country.
They just are really, really awful.
And if you were to listen to the white version of this, some white supremacist group talking amongst themselves, they would say many of the same things.
They would say they want segregation.
They would want whites, local white spaces.
That exact term was used in the Raytheon anti-racist intersectionality literature that came out yesterday.
So bizarre.
I mean, these are the same things.
They believe the same things.
More than anything else, it's an obsession with race.
When you are obsessed with race, you make bad decisions.
That is what happens.
When you are obsessed with skin color, you wind up running a society that is terrible in every way imaginable.
It's not a good idea.
Yep.
That's just how white folks will do you.
So don't forget that.
All right.
Thank you, Barack.
I appreciate that.
Let me tell you one more thing that is incredibly racist that has to be done away with.
And that's denial of evolution.
It's a form of white supremacy.
Denying evolution.
Denying evolution is a form of white supremacy.
Can you walk me through that one, Pat?
I don't think I can handle it.
I think so.
How is that white supremacist?
So evolution isn't white supremacy.
Denying evolution is white supremacy.
Right.
The global scientific community overwhelmingly accepts that all living humans are of African descent.
You know, it's not, that first sentence is not as overwhelming as it used to be.
There's a lot of respected scientists who have thrown some doubt into the whole evolutionary process to the Big Bang theory and evolution.
A lot of them have come to not accept it entirely.
But anyway, most scientific articles about our African origins focus on genetics.
The part of the story that's not as widely shared is about the creation of human culture.
We're all descended genetically and also culturally from dark-skinned ancestors.
So if you deny evolution, you're denying that part of the evolutionary scale that we all came from dark-skinned ancestors.
Early humans, these are just odds.
Early humans from the African continent are the ones who first invented tools, the use of fire, language, and religion.
These dark-skinned early people laid down the foundation for human culture.
Considering the short lifespan of our early ancestors, these original innovators were probably also very young.
No one who follows artistic trends would be surprised to learn that from the beginning, human culture was essentially invented by teenagers.
And by culture, we don't just mean the arts.
We mean the whole shebang.
Yeah, and they actually use the word shebang in the scientificamerican.com article.
I want to unmask the lie that evolution denial is about religion and recognize that at its core, it is a form of white supremacy that perpetuates segregation and violence against black bodies.
That is incredibly twisted.
It's another weird thing that they're doing.
So twisted.
A couple of things, just language-wise, that they do in these articles, Pat.
Black bodies.
It's like as if there's nothing more to a human being than their body.
It's almost like you're doing these things to black bodies.
What do you mean, black bodies?
What are you talking about?
Why are they using that terminology?
The other one that is really odd to me is they keep, now they're using, you have to say black and brown together.
So like there was this whole thing of like, you know, people of color.
Now it's like black and brown people are blah, And it's like, well, no one's literally black, right?
Like, you know, that's been a long for that matter.
Right.
I mean, like, everyone's different shape.
Like, it's such a strange thing that they do.
You know, it's like when there was, you know, gay and queer were terms at one point seemingly were interchangeable and then also offensive.
And now have, that's reversed, I think.
I don't know where we are on this scale at this given moment, but I think now they're not offensive.
Gay and Queer: From Offensive to Acronym 00:04:46
Yeah.
Now they're terms that are in, they're in the acronym.
LGBTQQIA2 plus.
And I would, by the way, after the Cuomo family announcement, LGBTQQIA2D plus.
Oh, for demisexual.
Demisexual.
And how is P not in there for pansexual?
L-G-B-T-Q-Q-I-A-2-D-D-P plus.
There you go.
That's all.
You can't do that.
It's inclusive.
Of course you can do that.
You can't take a moment to just memorize the 47 initials I just gave you.
Come on.
America.
Well, you're a selfish bigot.
That's white supremacy right there.
Right?
It is.
That's white supremacy.
Exactly.
Forget about evolution.
Not saying all the letters in the group.
It's just hateful.
Just sheer unadulterated hate.
That's all it is.
Triple 8-727-B-E-C-K.
It's Patton Stewart.
Glenn, 888-727-B-E-C-K.
This story is amazing.
Baltimore Ravens cornerback, Marlon Humphrey, 24 years old, responded to a Twitter post from Representative Democrat from Missouri, Corey Bush, who over the weekend on Independence Day made headlines because she claimed that American freedom is only for white people.
She said, when they say that the 4th of July is about American freedom, remember this.
The freedom they're referring to is for white people.
This land is stolen land and black people still aren't free.
Okay, well, you can spend an hour talking about how this is not conflict, right?
Yeah, she's in Congress.
That's an interesting thing.
It's an interesting way to imprison someone.
Interesting take on your country that you represent a portion of.
So anyway, she said that black people still aren't free.
Well, Marlon Humphrey, who is a black quarterback in the NFL, said, I feel free, L-O-L.
Oh, the humanity.
Oh, no.
How dare you say that you feel free?
So they piled on him like crazy.
Several commenters condemned him for being naive, demeaned his intelligence by calling him a boy, which you don't do.
It's just racist.
So these people, as always, show who they really are by attacking him.
You feel free and being actually free are two entirely different things, my boy.
Then another, we're not free until we're all free, my boy.
So that was a definite theme.
I guess maybe releasing criminals from prison?
And what are they advocating for there?
As far as free go, what do you call, what's freedom?
That's a really good question.
I would love for the people who were so upset by it.
Probably Corey Bush being critical of the lockdowns.
That's probably what it was.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, we're not free, guys.
We still have to wear masks.
We can't go into a restaurant and sit right next to somebody who we don't know yet.
That's even pretty much everywhere.
Yeah.
So, you know, Marlon Humphrey enjoying his life in this country and making $19.5 million a year doing it, just unacceptable to the left.
They will bludgeon you to death if you dare say one thing that disagrees with their worldview and their stinking agenda.
And as a BIPOC person, if you don't think the right way, They're going to beat you to death just like, you know, just like they would Whitey.
It's really tragic.
And then on the other side of this fence is a, as Stu mentioned, a representative in Congress who obviously hates this country and doesn't believe that we're a free people.
Pathetic.
Really is pathetic.
It is very much exactly what I would expect.
But credit to the guy who steps up and says, hey, I love it.
Screw it.
And again, you know, maybe we could try to remember Twitter isn't real life.
Twitter doesn't represent every living human being in this country.
Ignore it when they pile on you on Twitter like that.
You can block the comments, right?
Yeah.
Why would you not do that?
Start rolling in.
It's amazing.
All right.
We will be back tomorrow.
Fill it in for Glenn here on the Glenn Beck program.
