Is the black community turning on Obama?

October 29, 2014

Another video shows a crowd leaving smack in the middle of Obama’s speech, raising questions about his support among his base. Politicians are noticing the trend and actively seeking to distance themselves from the President in every way possible. Why are they turning on Obama? Glenn reacted on radio today.

TheBlaze reported:

The Democratic Party is “abusing” blacks in America, according to a group of men in Chicago who have a scathing message for President Barack Obama and “black leadership.”
“Who are the real oppressors in our community?” Paul McKinley, who ran for elected office as a Republican to replace Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., demanded in a video released Monday by Rebel Pundit. “When you hear the words ‘black-on-black crime,’ the first thing you think of is a black man robbing you, a black man breaking in your house. And that is a black-on-black crime. But let’s take it one step further. There’s a black-on-black crime down in city hall, there’s a black-on-black crime down in all the state capitals in America, where black folks are voting against our interests!”

Watch the video below:

"That is fantastic," Glenn said after watching it.

While this video seems like good news for those who want to see people, regardless of ethnicity, wake up and see the dangers of the progressive machine, Glenn did have a warning for listeners.

Glenn asked people to recall America after 9/11, when there was such an emotional reaction the the terrorist attack that people rallied behind President Bush and the leadership in Congress, and now the pendulum has swung the opposite direction with such vigor people don't know what to believe in anymore.

"The first time I really saw those flags was after September 11 th . They were everywhere. Regular people would just have them in their cars on the highway after September 11 th . Everybody wore a flag lapel pin on television. Everybody was pro-troops, pro-flag, pro, you know, Star Spangled Banner. You name it. We practically dressed like the Statue of Liberty for a while. Now look at us. Now you don't even know what to believe in. Now you don't know what things even stand for anymore. Now look at how the national anthem, does it mean anything? The flag, to how many people, does it mean anything?" Glenn said.

Glenn admitted he has become so disillusioned that he has trouble saying the Pledge of Allegiance.

"We were someplace and we stood to say the Pledge of Allegiance. And I stood up and I put my hand over the heart. We were at church at the Boy Scouts. I put my hand over my heart and I stood. And everybody starts saying the Pledge of Allegiance. [Tania] looked over at me. She elbowed me. What's wrong with you?"

"I'm not going to take in the Pledge of Allegiance. I'm not. I will pledge my allegiance to the principles and the values that created this republic. I don't know what this republic even is anymore. Now, I know this is a controversial thing. The point of this is, think of who's saying this. Think of who's saying this. The guy who did the rallies for America, what, 10 years ago. The biggest flag waver you could possibly find. Think how far the pendulum has swung," Glenn explained.

"Right now, we're at an extreme. Right now we're at almost a revolutionary extreme. Where common sense is completely dead. And I warn you, it will swing back."

"This is why the Republicans are not doing anything about the IRS, if you don't think the IRS will be used by the Republicans, and the Republicans will use the NSA just like this administration has, and they will say, well, you guys did it first, well, you guys did this. At some point all of this apparatus, all of these feelings of vengeance, they swing to the right. That's why we have to set ourselves in the middle. And I'm not talking about the wishy-washy middle. I'm saying the pendulum middle. I'm saying don't swing with the wind. Know what you believe in. Know what your principles and your values are, because those haven't changed."

"If I was taking a Pledge of Allegiance to the principles of the republic, if we all would have been saying that, and in our pledge we would have said what those principles are, honor, integrity, honesty, justice, equality for all, fairness, decency, truth, justice, the American way. Perhaps we wouldn't be in this situation that we're in right now, if we would just remember the principles. And those are the things we have to start pledging our lives to. And not to each other and not in a big group. To ourselves. To ourselves. Because I think this pendulum, I think they have overplayed their hand in every single way."

"The most dangerous time in American history are the next two years. Because this president, this administration, has nothing to lose. They're not playing for the next election," Glenn said. "Enjoy these next few days as we go up to the election, because once the election is done, he's got nothing to lose. And everything to gain."

Get THE DOCUMENTS for the 'Parental Advisory' Glenn TV special

There was a time when both the Left and the Right agreed that parents have the final say in raising their children... Not anymore.

In the People's Republic of California, the STATE, not parents, will determine whether children should undergo transgender treatments. The California state legislature just passed a law that will require judges in child custody cases to consider whether parents support a child’s gender transition. According to the law, the state now thinks total affirmation is an integral part of a child’s “health, safety, and welfare.”

We are inching closer to a dystopia where the state, not the parents, have ultimate rights over their children, a history that people from former Soviet nations would feign repeating.

Glenn dove into the law AND MORE in this episode titled, "Parental Advisory: The EXPLICIT plot to control YOUR kids." To get all the research that went into this episode AND information on how YOU can fight back, enter your email address below:

The Biden admin has let in MORE illegal aliens than the populations of THESE 15 states

There are currently an estimated 16.8 MILLION illegal aliens residing in the United States as of June 2023, according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). This number is already 1.3 million higher than FAIR's January 2022 estimate of 15.5 million and a 2.3 million increase from its end-of-2020 estimate. Even Democrats like New York City's Mayor Adams Mayor Adams are waking up to what Conservatives have been warning for years: we are in a border CRISIS.

However, this isn't the same border crisis that Republicans were warning about back in 2010. In the first two years of the Biden administration alone, the illegal alien population increased by 16 PERCENT nationwide, imposing a whopping net cost of $150.6 BILLION PER YEAR on American taxpayers. That is nearly DOUBLE the total amount that the Biden administration has sent to Ukraine.

This isn't the same border crisis that Republicans were warning about back in 2010.

These large numbers often make it difficult to conceptualize the sheer impact of illegal immigration on the United States. To put it in perspective, we have listed ALL 15 states and the District of Colombia that have smaller populations than the 2.3 MILLION illegal immigrants, who have entered the U.S. under the Biden administration. That is more than the entire populations of Wyoming, Vermont, and South Dakota COMBINED—and the American taxpayers have to pay the price.

Here are all 16 states/districts that have FEWER people than the illegal immigrants who have entered the U.S. under the Biden administration.

1. New Mexico

Population: 2,110,011

2. Idaho

Population: 1,973,752

3. Nebraska

Population: 1,972,292

4. West Virginia

Population: 1,764,786

5. Hawaii

Population: 1,433,238

6. New Hampshire

Population: 1,402,957

7. Maine

Population: 1,393,442

8. Montana

Population: 1,139,507

9. Rhode Island

Population: 1,090,483

10. Delaware

Population: 1,031,985

11. South Dakota

Population: 923,484

12. North Dakota

Population: 780,588

13. Alaska

POLL: Should the Government control the future of AI?

Earlier this week, tech titans, lawmakers, and union leaders met on Capitol Hill to discuss the future of AI regulation. The three-hour meeting boasted an impressive roster of tech leaders including, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Google CEO Sundar Pichai, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and others, along with more than 60 US Senators.

The meeting was closed to the public, so what was exactly discussed is unknown. However, what we do know is that a majority of the CEOs support AI regulation, the most vocal of which is Elon Musk. During the meeting, Musk called AI "a double-edged sword" and strongly pushed for regulation in the interest of public safety.

A majority of the CEOs support AI regulation.

Many other related issues were discussed, including the disruption AI has caused to the job market. As Glenn has discussed on his program, the potential for AI to alter or destroy jobs is very real, and many have already felt the effects. From taxi drivers to Hollywood actors and writers, AI's presence can be felt everywhere and lawmakers are unsure how to respond.

The potential for AI to alter or destroy jobs is very real.

Ultimately, the meeting's conclusion was less than decisive, with several Senators making comments to the tune of "we need more time before we act." The White House is expected to release an executive order regarding AI regulation by the end of the year. But now it's YOUR turn to tell us what YOU think needs to be done!
