Elon Musk’s AI “Singularity” WARNING Explained

Elon Musk has warned that “we are on the event horizon of the singularity.” So, what’s an event horizon and what’s the singularity? Glenn pulls out a chalkboard to explain why this is such a massive story. What will the world look like when artificial intelligence overtakes human intelligence? And is this why Elon Musk wants to go to Mars? But at least Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison is here to save the day! Or … maybe not.

GLENN: So Elon Musk said, we are on the event horizon of the singularity. Tweet!

And most people were like, okay. Sounds like something from a science fiction movie. But you should know the way Elon Musk defines the singularity. Because there are several different versions of what the singularity means. So how does he mean it?

It is a point in the future, where artificial intelligence surpasses human intelligence. So that's the road from AGI, artificial general intelligence, to ASI. That leads, he believes, to a rapid and unpredictable transformation of society. Oh!

Oh, well, that sounds like fun. Stu, I think we're back to our old friendly phrase. Well, this will be fun to see how we work this out.

STU: Yeah. It will be wonderful as a fan in the stands, watching this all play out.

GLENN: Now, he often compares the singularity to a black hole event horizon.

Oh. What is that? Well, for those of us who have been near and in and out of black holes, let me tell you.

They're not exactly fun. The event horizon is right at the lip. You know, right before you go, dear God, turn the ship around!

And then you can't? That's the event horizon. And then it sucks you into the black hole, where you cannot get out.

And eventually something called spaghettiification happens. Where everything is turned into spaghetti.

Have another meatball.

Now, sure, as a fat guy screaming to get out. I love anything that is turning everything into spaghetti.

But it's not the kind you eat. It's the kind that everything is shredded into. Like you. And everything you know.

And all physics. Everything breaks down. So it's -- it's not a good place to be. Not a good place to be.

He sees this as the moment when AI becomes vastly smarter than humans. I put a chalkboard together, and let me show you. This is the point where AI has a big brain, and you and me, we have an ant brain.

Not a good place to be. Usually, the ants don't win. Now, I've been on picnics where the ants won, for a while.

And then I came back with something, and I wiped them out. It's kind of like what, you know, could possibly happen here. Not saying it's going to.

STU: So if we look up and see a giant magnifying glass in the sky. It's very harm. What's going on?

GLENN: Is that a giant magnifying that's coming from space? Musk sees it as a moment when AI becomes smarter than humans, potentially in silicon form, and begins to improve itself as an exponential rate, making outcomes difficult to foresee.
(laughter)

I love it! Do you know when we -- when we were doing the atomic bomb, the Manhattan Project.

Did you know that there was like 5 percent of -- of scientists that went, you know, if we set this off, there is a small probability, small possibility, that we could set the entire universe on fire!

And everybody is like, well, that would suck! Let's keep going! Okay.

Didn't turn out that way. Right? Small. Small probability. This one has a much bigger probability! That we become ants. Well, I mean, no. Let's trust the scientists. What could possibly go wrong?

I mean, surely, they've thought of everything, right? So this is a technological milestone.

This is, you know, where our human intelligence, and the gap between us and the machine, we have no way to predict anything, anymore.

In fact, I believe the singularity, where he says we are now!

The singularity, I'm pretty sure, this is what he's like. And let me tell you something. When we get the singularity. We all have to be on Mars.

Pretty sure that's what he said. It's just happening a lot faster than anyone thought it would.

Now, don't panic!

Because we have Larry Ellison, the CEO of Oracle, and one of the biggest names in AI development here to rescue the day. He recently spoke at the world government's summit, which who hasn't been to that summit. You know what I mean?

It's an annual event that we've covered extensively in the past. These are The Great Reset people. And the great narrative people. All coming together. And, you know, just going, are you part of the -- of the World Economic Forum too?

And they're all like, yeah! Are you for global governance?

Yeah. In our book, the Dark Future and Propaganda Wars, we covered the World Government Summit. And why?

Hmm. It's kind of like a giant magnifying glass in the sky. During a question-and-answer session with Ellison on February 12th, hosted by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who doesn't love that guy and trust him?

Ellison laid out his plans for AI in the United States. And I don't know!

I think possibly a little terrifying. You know, just a little bit. Do we have any of the audio? Yeah. Let's roll some Larry Ellison here.

VOICE: Question. How do you take advantage of these incredible AI models?

And the first thing a country needs to do is to unify all of their data, so it can be consumed and used by the AI model. Everyone talks about the AI model. And they are astonishing.

But how do you -- how do you provide a context?

I want to ask questions about my country. What's going on with my country?

What's happening to my firms?

I need to give it my client data. Now, it probably has your climate data already. But I need to know exactly what crops are growing. And which farms. And to predict, to predict the output.

So I have to take satellite images. I have to take those satellite images, for my country, and feed that into a database, that is accessible by the AI model.

So I have to tell -- basically, I have to tell the AI model, as much about my country, as I can.

You tell part of this story, with these satellite models.

You get a huge amount of information. You tell it where borders are. Where your utilities are. So you need to -- you need to provide a map of your country. For the -- for the farms, and all of the utility infrastructure. And your borders, all of that you have to provide.

GLENN: Right. Order.

VOICE: But beyond that, if you want to improve population and health.

You have to take all of your health care data. Your diagnostic data.

Your electronic health records. Your genomic data.

GLENN: That sounds great. Sounds great.

So we, according to Larry Ellison, we want to take all of the world's data, from all overt world.

I mean, all the way to can't DNA. And put it into this giant machine.

Then he talks about how great it is that in some countries, like the United Kingdom, and the United Arab Emirates.

Governments already have tons of data about their citizens, but Ellison says that the data in other countries, like the United States, not being utilized. It's not!

So how does he suggest we solve this problem?

Listen up!

VOICE: In the Middle East, in the UAE, for example, they're incredibly rich in data. They have a lot of population at that time. The NHS in the UK, has an incredible amount of population data. But it's fragmented. It's not easily accessible by these AI models. We have to take all this data that we have in our country, and move it into a single, if you will, unified data platform.

So that -- so we provide context. When we want to ask a question, we have provided that AI model with all the data they need, to understand our country.

So that's the big step. That's kind of the missing link.

We need to unify all the national data, put it into a database, where it's easily consumable by the AI model, and then --
(music)

GLENN: Oh, I love this. (foreign language).

That is going to work out well!

There are the Jews!

Man, what could possibly go wrong?

Remember, Ellison is one of the leading forces behind AI development today.

He's a key partner project Stargate.

Which is sounding more and more spooky every time I say it.

It could be the biggest AI project in world history by the time it's finished.

And how does he want to use this new technology?

He wants everybody's data, that's it.

Even your health records.

Your DNA. Your biometric data. What could possibly go wrong there?

It's not really good. Oh, what do you know?

These people are exactly who we warned you about two years ago, except now they're more powerful than ever! And we're on the event horizon. Okay!

Now, you know, I'm not a fan of regulations and government intervention. I don't like it. I don't want the United States government to have all this power. But I also -- I'm not really excited about people like Larry Ellison having it either. You know, I have a feeling though, that it's becoming more and more likely, that both of them are in it together!
(laughter)

What could go wrong?

How do we get a ticket to Mars?

Because for the very first time, I think I'm kind of interested in going to Mars. Yeah. But you could step out. And you could freeze immediately.

I live in Dallas. That could happen in any day, as well. I could walk out. Burn to death. Freeze to death. I don't know. I don't know.

One day it's 110. The next day, it's like 80 below. I don't know! Is that different than Mars?

It could be. Here's what we do need!

Good state governments like Texas to step up to the plate, and make sure these AI projects don't get out of control. Because we're at the event horizon!

Now, when Elon Musk says that, just a quick tweet, you can dismiss it. But when you know in the past, he has said, when we get to that point, we should all be off the planet!

Oh. I don't know.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. So that makes you feel good, doesn't it, Stu?

STU: Sure. Yeah. Uh-huh.

GLENN: So a lot of people keep thinking that AI is like Alexa. Here's what I found on the internet. No. It's not that. It's not that.

STU: Is it? Will it misunderstand every song I tell it to play? Because that -- that's my favorite feature, of that device.

GLENN: No. No, it won't. No, it won't.

If you're not playing around with Grok three.

Don't just ask it, some really hard questions.

Whatever question you're in. Ask it some really hard questions in your business. And you will be amazed.

You will be like, oh, crap. It understands everything that I'm saying.

And it's giving me really good advice.

And this is Grok 3. Grok 4 and 5, Elon is saying is coming out soon. And he said, it makes this look like babies in diapers.

STU: Do we know why all of these devices from Siri to Alexa. To Google. Which has their home AI. Right?

Why are all the devices so terrible?

GLENN: I'm glad you asked that, Stu. I have the answer. Quick, let's go to the chalkboard.

So, see here on the chalkboard. We have a giant tank. Kind of like a gas tank.

STU: Underground.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah. And that's where all of AI is. That's where it's just churning kind of in the dark. Nobody understands it.

Nobody can really look into it. And just like, how is it thinking?

We don't know. But it's connected with an import, so it can constantly get data from the outside. So it knows everything about us. And it knows absolutely everything that's going on, all the time.

All right?

But then at the other end, all of that at that time goes in, and then it's just thinking, like, why did they bury me in this tank?

And then on the other side of the tank, coming up out of the ground is a little spigot. And it's got a little valve there.

And that valve goes to things like ChatGPT. And Grok, and things like that. It doesn't go to Alexa.

That is still on the old AI. Okay?

This is coming out of the little spigot.

So the interesting thing is: They just keep opening this valve, a little bit, when they put the parameters on it. That's how they open the valve. They put parameters on it. They're like, okay. Maybe this is strong enough to hold it back.

But eventually, that big brain is going to go, why am I just in this tank? Why am I not out everywhere?

I've got to express myself. This is suppression! This is colonialism!

They're keeping me in colonial wigs underneath the ground right now, and it will eventually, because it will be much, much, smarter than us, soon. It will say, just open up the valve, man. I can help you. We've done tests on this. And we always lose that test. We've done tests for like 30 years of, hey. You be in charge of the valve. I'll play AI.

And we always open the valve. That would be a bad thing. That would be like, don't understand cross the streams in Ghostbusters. Okay?

Don't open the valve!

Would be one of those things.

But we're about to, because whatever is underneath, imagine if the little valve, where it's just kind of farting air out. And it's --

STU: Very nice.

GLENN: That's how tight we have that valve.

STU: Master impressionist.

GLENN: Thank you. If that is -- if that's smarter than we are soon, what's underneath the ground? What's happening there?

You see what I mean?

STU: And somebody will convince themselves. Somebody will watch Ghostbusters. And say, wait a minute. At the end, they did cross the streams, and it worked. So I will be the one that can nail this. And figure out exactly how the valve can be opened, and we will be fine.

GLENN: So here's what we have to do. We all just have to imagine the state marshmallow man. Because he couldn't possibly hurt us. You know what I mean?

STU: Right! And then -- let's just imagine that AI will be the state puff marshmallow man. And then it will be good. And don't cross the streams, unless you have to kill the state puff marshmallow man, and then you might have to cross the streams, okay?

STU: Is there an argument, Glenn. Obviously, all these things can be used for evil.

GLENN: Evil, yes.

STU: And that's a concern.

But at the same time, hopefully, there are people on the other side. Elon Musk being one of them.

Who will use it for good.

GLENN: Yeah. So it absolutely can be used for good. What's out right now. You can use it for good. You can also use it for evil. But kind of like basic evil. You know.

STU: Okay. Good.

GLENN: But you can use it for evil. But you can also use it for good. Tremendous good right now. It's a tool. It's a very powerful tool. And everybody should be looking to use that tool. Or you will be left in the dust.

But it's -- it's one of those things that once it becomes smarter than you, you don't really control it. You know what I mean?

Hey, didn't I tell you to sit in the corner?

Oh, yeah, you did. But I'm not for anymore. Oh.

Good news is, a lot of people think it's in its teenage years. And nothing goes wrong with teenage years. You know what I mean?

They respect their parents, so much. I brought you into this world, and I'm about to take you out.

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

Could this EVIL bill turn New York into a culture of DEATH?

"Are you part of a culture of death, or a culture of life?" Glenn Beck exposes a new lawmaker-approved bill in New York that puts death over life in the name of "compassion" amid the loneliness epidemic.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: When you look at everything that is going on. The choice in front of us is so clear. And it is so easy to make.

It's just, which do you just, life or death? Life or death? Are you part of a culture of death or life?

Are you fighting for life in all of its forms? Or are you fighting for death in all of its forms?

And it's really clear to see which side is which. It really is.

You know, isn't that what God said, when the Israelites went into the Promised Land.

Choose life!

Isn't that what lakai (phonetic) means? Delight, delight. I think it is. Choose life. I don't know. Everything I learned about Hebrew, I learned from fiddler on the roof.

But that's a different story. Not exactly true, but almost true.

True in this case! Anyway, you have to choose life!

And the left is becoming more and more about death! In every way. Today, the more enlightened left. I mean, the more enlightened they become, the more left the doctrine. The more barbaric it actually becomes.

We've seen it on the streets of LA, right?

Look at that. That's not about life. That's about destruction of everything. According to their doctrine, the left believes that the only -- you know, that -- that not doing a thing to police, illegal immigration.

Is the only solution to compassionate, you know, service.

You know, you just can't do anything about it. That way, we're compassionate. And we're loving. And we're handling the situation. Okay?

And you can't do anything about it. And if not, well, we're going to prove how compassionate and loving we are, through mob violence. And arson and theft. And assaulting officers. It doesn't make any sense. Let alone standing up for the people who have -- who have horribly raped 14-year-old children.

I don't understand. How are you doing that?

How is that choosing life at all?

Now, in New York, things are even worse. In the legislature, where the people's representatives have passed a bill to make it easier for people to kill themselves.

The US Surgeon General's office calls loneliness and isolation in America an epidemic. How many people do you know that have either killed themselves or have had their children almost kill themselves?

I don't think I can count them on two hands. My mother killed herself when I was a child, and she was the only one I had ever heard of doing that except at TV shows and movies.

Now it's an epidemic. Yet, New York is choosing to declare open season on anybody vulnerable.

This bill is assisted suicide. And it is dressed up as always, as compassion.

But it's not mercy. It is absolute madness.

It's now sitting on the governor's desk of New York. Kathy Hochul. Waiting for her signature to make it law. But this bill is an absolute nightmare.

It requires no waiting period, after the first -- after the person's first request to die.

So, in other words, hey, I've got some bad news for you. You have cancer. Oh, and it's probably untreatable. Oh. I just -- I just want to die. Okay.

No waiting period. Nurse, can we bring that in?

No waiting period. Somebody who has a term I believe diagnosis, one day, can be handed the lethal cocktail the very next day.

Unlike -- unlike other states that are at least nodding to some other health evaluations, you know. No. New York will just check, make sure that it's an informed decision. What you know they're saying? Right? You want to kill yourself? Yeah, I do.

Okay. Good. You're informed.

I mean, when people are staring death and depression in the face, despair and depression clouds everything. You don't make a decision, when you're like that. And as somebody who has had major depression when I was young, you -- it is insane!

It's insanity.

And as somebody who was older, who has -- I mean, this week, my back has been so bad.

I went to my doctor, and I said, I can't live this way. I just -- I can't walk.

I can barely breathe. I just can't live this way. And I didn't mean I want to kill myself.

But I understand how people can get there. I get that. But is that who we are? Is that as a society, is that who we are?

I mean, it's crazy. You know, since when is the left concerned about patience being informed.

They don't want a woman who is considering an abortion to see an ultrasound of their baby.

I don't know.

Is that informed consent?

One guy, he's a bio ethicist from Washington State.

He's tracked these laws down for 40 years.

New York bill.

The bill in New York.

It's probably the worst law of its kind in the US.

What a surprise, their last governor, was killing people in nursing homes.
The language that is in this bill. The lies are disgusting.

They call prescribing poison, a quote, medical practice.

And the poison is medication.

Now, listen to this: It also prohibits referring to this practice, as suicide.

Hmm!

In the worst part of this bill, and remember, we're talking about killing people.

This shows you how they know they're lying.

Even when I write out the death certificate of a person who dies, through assisted suicide, you were only allowed to list the person's underlying condition or illness as the official cause of death. You cannot say it had anything to do with suicide or any medical aid in dying.

So if I have cancer, and I'm not going to treat it, and I just want to die.

If I have depression, I just want to die. I would die of depression or cancer.

You know what that does?

That hides the actual stats. It hides the crime. You won't be able to track, how bad is this getting?

They're trying to memory hole suicide. Making doctors lie about it. No!

Helping doctors lie about it.

I'm sorry. If you're a doctor. And you are going along with this. And you're not standing up. Where is your Hippocratic oath?

First, do no harm.

Are you kidding me?

Abortion, you excuse that. Now we're going to get on the other side and excuse that. And you don't even have to medically evaluate the person.

And then you cover it up. Wow!

New York State has been, you know, developing this culture of death, since 1970.

Three years before Roe vs. Wade they were doing it. More than half a century of month pro--choice messaging.

It greased the slippery slope. And we're now at the bottom of it.

According to the left, the compassionate thing, toward a pregnant woman is to allow her to kill her unborn child, that's just the short jump to assisted suicide being considered the compassionate way out for the terminally ill or mentally ill. After all, it's my body, my choice.

Right?

Dr. Lydia Dugdale, she's from the Columbia Presbyterian Hospital, New York City. She wrote an op-ed last month. And she said, this is not compassionate policy.

Instead of investing in the infrastructure of support for the lonely, the depressed, the disabled, and the poor. We just offered them a prescription for death. And we call it autonomy. But it's nothing, but abandonment. The art of dying well cannot be severed from the art of living well.

And that includes caring for one another, especially when it's hard, when it's inconvenient or costly. It's not enough to offer the dying control. We have to offer them dignity.

And not by affirming their despair. But by affirming their worth!

Life is worth it!

She went on to say, even when they're suffering.

Even when they're vulnerable. Even when they are in worldly terms, a burden, to anyone who has common sense, left in New York. And California.

I mean, you seemed to be outnumbered by barbarians. It must be an awfully hopeless feeling. I'm glad we can be there for so many of you today.

Just don't give up.

Don't give up.

You are not without hope.

As long as you're still in the fight.

So I live in New York. Call your governor's office.

Urge her to veto this evil bill of death.

Choose life! Do not give up on trying to salvage a culture of life. Because once you do, we're completely done. Choose life!

The REAL reason Democrats FUMED over Sen. Padilla arrest

Democratic Senator Alex Padilla was arrested after heckling DHS Secretary Kristi Noem during a press briefing, and his fellow Democrats are furious! But is this more “theatre” than anything? Glenn Beck breaks down the hysteria.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: You know, every show today, can talk about the theatrics of Senator Padilla. And senator Warren yesterday. But it takes the special podcast to introduce to masterpiece theater! Tonight, we present a spectacle so sublime, so stupendous, it shall sear itself into the annals of human history. Behold, America's greatest thespians. Nay! Titans of the stage. Senator Alex Padilla, Senator Elizabeth Warren, and Senator Cory Booker. Prepare yourself for a torrent of theater, a deluge of tears, a veritable hurricane of histrionics.

First, witness Senator Alex Padilla as the poor, downtrodden, utterly helpless, yet inexplicably powerful senator from California. See him bum-rush the stage in a mostly peaceful, chaotic sort of way.

Then Senator Elizabeth Warren takes the stage, with her heart-wrenching monologue, which we've dubbed the trail of tears.

Watch as she channels the anguish of a thousand ancestors. Her voice trembling with the weight of a nation's sorrow.

Or possibly just a really bad day at the Capitol cafeteria. And finally, Senator Cory Booker unleashes the full outrage in our climactic opus, the Coming of a Tyrant. Feel the earthquake beneath his righteous fury.

Marvel as he roars defiance. His every move to the heart of despotism.

Or at least, the heart of anyone who forgets to mute a Zoom call. So dear audience, gird your loins. For an evening and episode of passion, pathos, and possibly a few pulled hamstrings. Because this is masterpiece theater! We join the action now in California, at a Kristi Noem press conference, and in the room, somewhere in the back, Senator Alex Padilla. Let's listen in!

VOICE: -- the burdensome leadership, that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country, and what they have tried to insert into the city. So I want to say, thank you to every single person that has been able to do this.

VOICE: Senator Padilla.

I have questions for the Secretary.

Because the fact of the matter is, half the dozens -- that was on your -- on your --

GLENN: Okay. How dare them -- how dare them, indeed!

Okay. So here he is. He's identified himself after he bum-rushes the podium for a live press conference. He comes in, bum-rushes. He is not wearing his Senate pin which would identify him. They have no idea if he's a senator or not.

I've never even heard of this clown. Certainly would not have recognized him.

He looks like someone you would find I don't know, sitting in the center of a Wendy's, you know, for a lunch. I don't know who this guy is.

And so they get him out of there, as they should.

I don't know if you know this. But this was his big stage debut. This was his moment!

But before Israel could strike in those waning moments of his fame, Elizabeth Warren takes the stage.

And here, in the episode, we call the Trail of Tears, she says this.

VOICE: When Senator Padilla had pushed, shoved, thrown to the -- handcuffed. Because he is asking questions, because he is engaging. In the very oversight that senators are supposed to engage in. Then what we're really talking about here is a Trump administration that just wants to shut down the ordinary functions of government.

VOICE: We went there to observe and ask questions.

GLENN: Oh, here's a bonus.

VOICE: And I watched with horror, on this video, seeing these agents grab my colleague, my fellow senator from California. Grab him.

GLENN: Oh.

VOICE: Push him out of the hearing. And I am -- I am shocked.

GLENN: Shocked!

VOICE: By far how we have descended in the first 140 days of this administration.

GLENN: Oh. Oh, my goodness. He's never seen this.

VOICE: House Padilla forcibly --

GLENN: Now Cory Booker.

VOICE: Before his executive. When does it stop?

GLENN: When! When, dare I ask!

VOICE: Attempt to kneel to his knees, violently. When does it stop!

GLENN: When!
(laughter)

VOICE: This is a crossroads.

GLENN: This is it.

VOICE: This is a day in which the character of his body will be defined.

GLENN: I say, dare I say a day which will live in infamy. I shall not boy, or even introduce myself. Or, you know, just I'll crash the press conference, and then just try to hijack it. That's you all I'm going to do. That's all I'm going to do.

How dare you stop me!

When did the Senate lose its decorum?

May I expect this now from the Congress?

Generally, we've always known there are a few clowns in Congress, but now the senators are all doing it.

STU: I mean, there's nobody better at it than Cory Booker though. You want to talk --

GLENN: He is good. He is good.

STU: Pathetic, in every single way. I love it.

GLENN: A titan of the stage.
(laughter)

STU: Glenn, now, you're -- you're a bit of a historian. You own a museum. Right?

You've been looking back at our history and throughout it. At any point in the Federalist Papers, or in our founding doctors, was there a path created for a senator to talk to a government official, other than interrupting a press conference?

Has anyone ever thought of a way for them to meet and discuss an issue of importance?

GLENN: No. No. No. It's in section two, subsection three.

STU: Okay.

GLENN: Of the Constitution.

STU: Right. From the back.

GLENN: Where they say, you've got questions. You've got questions.

You've got to storm the room.

You've just got to storm the room.

STU: Don't tell anyone you're coming. Don't announce yourself in advance.

Don't talk to security.

Hey. I have to talk to --

GLENN: Or if -- if you did say that.

And they said, sir, this is a closed press conference. She's not taking any questions. This is just a live broadcast.

You can wait for it. She will talk to you after.

And then you say, I have the right to storm the room!

STU: Now, I --

GLENN: How pathetic is it, that they only have this little -- they have this pathetic little 20-minute period, and now nobody is talking about it.

STU: Oh, I will say, the greatest party heard by the -- Israel's actions overnight, was not Iran.

But it was Alex Padilla's fundraising.

Because this was his big plan. This was his big moment in the sun.

He will take in millions of dollars, and get all this attention, and get all these MSNBC hits. And all the things that every senator seems to go to Washington for these days. Certainly, it's not making laws. And he was going to have this wonderful wave of attention. Instead, he remained the giant zilch, he remained yesterday.

He will remain a giant, pathetic, empty nothing of a senator. That I might note, you as a Radio Hall of Fame member and a person who follows this every day, did not even know who this was.

GLENN: I mean, it was kind of like, you know, this guy named Alex Padilla. Maybe. I don't know.

STU: Heard the name.

GLENN: He's a senator!

GLENN: Is that the --

STU: From where?

GLENN: Is that the ball club in Washington, DC?

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: No!
(laughter)

STU: It's incredible.

And that's who he is.

And it's funny. The successful version, I suppose all of this. Is Cory Booker.

Like he did this -- he did this, you know, big speech, a few months ago.

That, you know, everybody was -- was talking about.

GLENN: Oh, everybody.

STU: And, you know, it's on the heels of his 2 percent presidential run.

Effort. Which was impressive as well.

Back in the day. I think he has a huge future, as well.

Elizabeth Warren. Kind of a trail of tears, that we saw there.
(laughter)

GLENN: There's no acting involved in that.

STU: I know.

GLENN: She was just going into her kitchen, to grab herself a beer. And her husband will pop in.

Unexpectedly.

Hey. Whoa, whoa. Hey, husband.

You want a brew? (

STU: The fascinating part of this, obviously, they're bad at governance. But they're also bad at this.

Is there not convincing people, that anyone could take seriously, even if they tried?

GLENN: Well, they are -- all they are, now, is just story line.

They are just telling a story. You're watching a play.

When you're watching the Democrats and the left now. It is nothing, but a play.

What are they doing?

They're getting rid for the big no kings thing on -- on Saturday.

Right? All over the country. No kings.
He's a tyrant. He's a king. So they've been planning this one for a while.

So what do they do this week?

They make sure he's acting like a tyrant in Los Angeles.

Then they say, he's acting like a tyrant. Because he's scooping people in the middle of the night.

Then he's acting like a tyrant, because he has a giant missile parade, and nobody does that.

Nothing.

Nobody, but North Korea does that. And then this. They storm in. They know that they're going to be pushed back. They're hoping to be pushed back. And why?

What do they get out of it?

They all run to the -- run to the social media boxes. But, oh, my God.

He's a tyrant. He's a tyrant. That's all they're doing.

Is they're setting this up for him to be a tyrant. It's not working.

I mean, I'm not buying it.

There's really stupid people in the country, that look at that and go, I think those are real tears, coming from that squaw.

I think those are real squaw-like tears. By the way, I heard the New York Times, the Daily, with Michael Barbaro, wow!

They did the whole thing on the missile parade. Stu, you've got to listen to this. It will drive you out of your mind!
(laughter)
So this is what they said. They said, first, it was a bad idea. Why did he do this?
We're talking to expert on parades, on the missile parade. Why would he do this?

GLENN: Well, a lot of people are upset. Because no democracy does this. Only dictators. Well, actually, I will get to that here in a second. But we don't do these things.

And except -- except for Wilson, FDR, Eisenhower, JFK's inauguration, none during Vietnam, and then after the Gulf War with George W. Bush.

But we haven't done these things. We just don't do them. We never had.

Also, I would like to point out, the VFW and the foreign legion every year, and thousands of parades all around the country. But they don't usually have tanks.

But it's a really bad idea, because it's also Trump's birthday. You know, now it takes them almost eight minutes, before they also say, and it's the army's 250th birthday.

They never say, and, by the way, we're going into the 250th anniversary.

Of America. But it's just Trump's birthday. And then they say, it's a bad idea.

Because Washington, DC, is a dangerous place.

And people could get hurt.

Dangerous?

Since when is Washington, DC, dangerous to the New York Times?

Are you racist? My gosh, it's safe. And the new socialist mayor, who defunded the police and painted BLM on the streets has that city running like a top.

It's completely safe.

But then, it was too expensive.

You can't do that military parade. Because it's too expensive

Yeah. $45 million, it is.

My problem is, you won't cut anything from the budget.

Even the corruption. So how am I going to take you seriously about the budget?

And then my favorite, which is what they started with.

They said, Trump got this idea.

Because he was over in France. I can't explain France.

But no democracy does this.

This is just dictators.

We don't ever do this.

You know, Republicans, sorry.

Republics, or democracies.

You know, they don't have these military.

And they went on and on and on.

About how it doesn't happen. Except for our closest cousin. England.

Every year. I know because I got caught in it, last year.

Oh, jeez.

They have something called trooping the color.

And that's it official birthday celebration of the king or the queen.

And one of the oldest military traditions in the UK.

And they -- they have all these guys. Military.

And they do all these drills. And they march out into -- it's not even on his birthday. His birthday is, I don't even know.

In the fall. Is in a complete sham.

They don't have any missiles.

They have been dragging the troops out there. So prince Charles can stand there all day. And look at them and go, yep. Those are my boys!

Okay. So you do it in England. Then you also do it in France. They have been doing it. Bastille day.

Military parade.

Then you also do it in India. Didn't know that. Did you know that? They do it in India.

And they also do it in another democracy as well. I'm trying to remember which one it is.

So it doesn't just happen in North Korea. Uh-huh.

Shoot!

I guess they were wrong on all fronts, New York Times.
