Will the Left REGRET turning Tony Hinchcliffe’s Puerto Rico joke into a controversy?

The mainstream media melted down after comedian Tony Hinchcliffe of “Kill Tony” told a joke about Puerto Rico. The media used it as evidence that Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally was about “hate” and akin to the 1939 Nazi rally at the same venue. But was this joke actually racist? Or was Hinchcliffe just doing his job as a roast comedian? Glenn and Stu review the joke, which even left-leaning comedian Jon Stewart admitted was funny, and make the case that it’s the Left that should be worried: “Whenever they try to take away your fun, [they] lose.”

GLENN: So Tony Hinchcliffe. He is -- I'm sorry -- he's the guy that was on the Tom Brady special, right? The roast.

STU: Oh, my gosh. Yes.

And he was really -- really --

STU: Very funny.

GLENN: Almost mean. But very funny.

STU: But that's his job. Right? He strikes me as Jeff Ross. Who was also there, by the way. He says really uncomfortable things. Mean things. It's his shtick.

GLENN: If you are roasting, that's what you do.

STU: That's what you're supposed to do.

GLENN: People were like, oh, he was mean. That's what a roast is. You tear everything apart.

STU: Yeah. And some people watch that sort of world really quickly.

They know which comedians are coming up in that world.

I don't watch that very closely.

Oh, my gosh. This guy is amazing.

He has a huge following.

It was really uncomfortable.

Really mean. Really funny.

Like, that is his job.

GLENN: What is our -- what is our first rule.

STU: You don't cut funny.

GLENN: You don't cut funny.

If it's funny, it's funny. You leave it alone.

You don't cut funny.

STU: There at least used to be a situation. Where there might be an outrage on some of these things.

The comedian would rally to another comedian.

GLENN: Not this guy.

I would think somebody who is rallying actually to his defense is Jon Stewart.

Listen to this.

VOICE: Now, obviously in retrospect. Having a roast comedian.

GLENN: Wait. Wait.

Let's play what he said, first.

VOICE: It is absolutely wild times. It really, really is.

And, you know, there's a lot going on.

Like, I don't know if you guys know this.

There's literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now.

Yeah. I think it's called Puerto Rico.
(laughter)
Okay. All right.

STU: The crowd reacts. Just like a roast crowd.

GLENN: A real big roast crowd.

STU: But like, everyone knows it's a joke.

Adults are familiar with this form of entertainment.

GLENN: Right.

STU: Right. And, oh, man.

GLENN: Oh, that's bad.

STU: And then you wait for the next one. And then you wait for the next group to get in.

GLENN: That's why he said, okay. All right. You'll get there. You'll get there. He said he's trying -- all right.

I know. But you'll understand this form here soon.

STU: And that moment, by the way, is that moment that roast comedians cherish.

That awkwardness is something you cherish in the moment. That is literally what you're going for.

GLENN: Right.

STU: You want that sound.

GLENN: It's mainstream Andy Kaufman.

You know how Andy Kaufman went and he wanted to make everyone uncomfortable.

This is mainstream. This is a roast.

STU: And it's tough.

I can understand why -- you can theoretically be critical of saying, I don't know if he's the right guy if he's going to do that there.

GLENN: When you have someone who is well-known, has a big following.

And is mainstream enough, like him. Where he was the funniest thing on that Tom Brady special. He was.

STU: Yeah. Yeah. There was a lot that was funny in it.

GLENN: That you would show up. You damn right.

STU: I wouldn't even use the word mainstream.

He's like cool. Very, very rarely do Republicans get people who are actually cool.

That's why Elon Musk is at some level interesting to the Republicans. Because like he's doing this amazing Tony stark character. He's actually on our side for once.

This guy is probably the funniest. Edgiest. Up-and-coming roast comedian there is.

You know, he is -- like stole that show, at times.

And, you know, remember, the Netflix Tom Brady special is one of the most watched things of the entire year.

Right?

This was a massive, massive cultural event.

He was one of the stars of it.

He's coming, and he's doing his shtick to a major audience in a party environment. It's totally, totally what he should do. And it would be expected to do in the moment.

GLENN: So now that's our opinion. Now listen to Jon Stewart.

JON: Now, obviously in retrospect, having a roast comedian, come to a political rally before election day, and roasting a key voting demographic, probably not the best decision by the campaign politically.

But to be fair, the guy is just really doing what he does.

I mean, here he is, at the Tom Brady roast a few months ago.

VOICE: The great Jeff Ross, ladies and gentlemen. Jeff is so Jewish, he only watches football for the coin toss.

Ron, you look like the Nazi that kept burning himself on the ovens. Kevin is so small, that when his ancestors picked cotton, they called it dead-lifting.
(laughter)

JON: Yes. Yes. Of course. Terrible. Boo. Yes.
(laughter)

JON: There's something wrong with me. I find that guy very funny. I'm sorry.

STU: He is.

JON: I don't know what to tell you. I mean, bringing him to a rally and not him do roast jokes, that would be like bringing Beyonce to a rally and not having -- oh.
(laughter)

GLENN: Right?

STU: It's very, very funny. And exactly what's supposed to happen. And the fact that the media is -- they're all upset. AOC is like, I can't believe this racism.

Stop! Stop it!

I call her an adult, but she has the mind of a 3-year-old.

GLENN: You know what is amazing here, they have willingly stepped back into the Al and Tipper Gore category.

Where remember, Al and Tipper Gore. They were like, oh, we've got to have labels on rap music.

STU: Right. Right. Yeah.

GLENN: And they were so --

STU: They were mocked for it.

GLENN: They were so Karen-esque.

So Karen-esque.

And nobody wants to be around those people. Nobody wants to be around those people.

And look at what the left is doing.

Every step of the way, they're the ones that wreck the fun.

STU: Yeah. They are -- I mean, this is -- you sound like Bill Maher right now.

Which is shocking.

Because you guys shouldn't sound the same, but it's true.

I mean, when you suck the fun out of life, you don't win. It's not a winning long-term position.

You might win an election here or there. They might win this one. And that's terrifying to think about.

But they might. They might win, despite -- in spite of itself.

GLENN: Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming.

STU: But it's true. I always think about this, when you talk about global warming.

If you can present to people, hey, why wouldn't we want clean water and clean air and a good environment?

You will get a lot of people, even some conservatives and moderates. They will say, you know, yeah. We should do those things. Like spending money on the environment is a good idea.

When you start saying, hey. You shouldn't have big-screen TVs.

And your air-conditioning should be set at 78.

GLENN: And no meat. Eat a bug.

STU: And no meat.

You lose. That's why I love when they go with that messaging.

Whenever they do that. And try to take away your fun.

You lose. That's what happens.

And it's like -- it's always why I'm skeptical of efforts to limit technology.

You know, like, when people are like, oh, well. We have to not do whatever.

AI or smartphones. Whatever.

Look, I don't like a lot of that stuff.

And would I think that the world would be a better place if we got rid of a lot of it. Sure.

But at the end of the take, when it's performing tasks in your life that makes your life easier.

It's just going to win.

You're not going to be able to stop it. And when you try to fight against that. People like having fun. People like having fun.

Why do you think the abortion messaging works for the left?

Because they like -- they like that sort of -- like the lifestyle of being able to be a little promiscuous and not be punished for it is something that connects with a lot of freaking people, particularly young women.

It does work with them. It's not necessarily, they're all like, I would like to end a lot of baby's lives.

What they like is going to bars and hooking up. And at the end of the day, not being punished for it. It's why you -- I remember you saying this a long time ago. When you were very young, you were pro-choice.

GLENN: Yeah. Keep your options open.

STU: Keep your options open.

GLENN: Really bad. Really bad.

STU: It's really bad.

And when you think about what it really means. Of course it's terrible.

But when you're given a permission structure, and you're young, and you haven't thought about these things a lot of the way, the permission structure is, this is legal. Is health care?

Well, of course, you can justify that.

If you buy that messaging, you can justify it. And it's why they use it. It's why it's effective, particularly on younger people. So I'm not surprised that that sort of stuff wins. When you're on the other side and you're saying, you know, jokes are bad, and stop being -- noticing.

Stop noticing, that the thing that the left is doing is completely insane. Like just saying girls can be boys, and boys can be girls by a few sentences.

GLENN: Let me play the AOC.

Because look at -- if this was our messaging.

If this is what we were saying in the last week of the election, would you think it was going well?

First, AOC.

VOICE: This was not -- this was a hate rally. This was not just a presidential rally. This was also not just a campaign rally.

I think I say very important for people to understand, that these are mini January 6 rallies.

STU: So bad.

VOICE: These are mini stop the steal rallies. These are rallies to prime an electorate into rejecting the results of an election if it doesn't go the way that they want.

Because Donald Trump, and that entire cadre of people up on that stage. Steven Miller, et cetera. Do not respect the law of the United States of America.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Okay. This -- these words may not age a week.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: Because if they lose, if it doesn't go their way.

Producing staff, make sure we have all of these cuts.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: Of saying exactly what Donald Trump is going to do.

All of them.

Make sure you have all of them.

STU: At the front of that rally, will be that woman.

And she will be sitting there. And she will be encouraging her social media audience to bail out the people who burn the cities down.

That is like, it is so predictable. And speaking of AI.

That argument is basically like, craft -- craft a liberal argument, to -- to criticize Trump's rally and tie it to January 6th. Enter.

And she's reading it.

It's pathetic. That is a pathetic. Mini January 6.

So in some ways, it would be adorable, if she was 11.
(laughter)
Right?

GLENN: Well, how about Mika from MSNBC. Here's what she said.

VOICE: I think a lot of people are seeing that rally, at Madison Square Valley. Seeing all those people. It doesn't mean he's going to win the race. But my point is that it's discouraging that so many people would gather and rally, to hate. To hate speech.

STU: That's not what it is.

VOICE: In America. It's discouraging, and it hurts. That people who have family in Puerto Rico. Who are Puerto Rican Americans who are American citizens, are hearing hate like that. It's discouraging.

STU: Can you imagine if this is an actual position? It's not. Imagine if she actually believed this.

VOICE: It's important to look at the situation. And it's not just, oh, my gosh. About the race. It's, oh, my gosh, how did we get here?

How did we get here?

STU: I can't take any more of this.

Are these the people that brought Eminem on stage last week. Eminem.

A person who rapped -- who built his career on domestic violence, rapping about domestic violence, as part of his act, and rapping about beating gay people, as part of his act.

You might find that distasteful. I find it distasteful. That being said, it's his act.

I understand it. I don't think he's -- I mean, he has had some legal problems. But I don't think he's actually bashing gay people.

I don't like his act.

But we all understand, it was his act. And they can bring him up, on that stage.

And I think as adults, we should all be able to look at that and said, look, he's said some things, that the party shouldn't want necessarily representing them. But what are you going to do?

Obviously, he's a rapper. That's his business. The same thing should be said for Kill Tony.

Right? He's up there. He's doing his thing. That is his shtick. Every adult, including even morons like AOC. And the idiots on Joe Scarborough's stupid show.

All know exactly what reality is. And they're pretending that they don't.

GLENN: And here's how you know the Democrats know this. Okay?

Because there are Democrats in swing states that are running commercials right now, with them, and Donald Trump.

With pictures of them, and assigning or something.

Anything.

He voted with Donald Trump.

He's middle of the road.

He doesn't lean all one way or the other.

Look, here's a picture of him and Trump.

They're running these things.

If you actually thought the man was Hitler, you wouldn't run those.

Your party wouldn't pay for that. This is all a sham! They're convincing you he's Hitler.

I think people like Mika is actually convincing herself, he's like Hitler.

GLENN: Well, and which was a fascinating thing. Considering she was partially responsible being the president of the United States.

They fawned over him, for a year. And brought him on.

And told him, the questions in advance, they told him.

They asked him, what they should hit. I mean, they were --

GLENN: Right.

STU: They were best buds.

GLENN: Yeah. Weren't they on the -- weren't they on his house, at one of the debates. Remember that?

STU: They're close friends for a long time.

WARNING: Is Europe close to being CONQUERED?

Hopefully, Donald Trump will fix our immigration crisis. Because if he doesn't, we have a good idea of what it could turn into. Glenn takes a look at Europe, which is a few years ahead of us. After years of opening their borders to migrants, especially from the Middle East, European countries are now at risk of eventually becoming Islamic strongholds. But it's the Islamists who are the most concerning. Glenn reviews how terrorist attacks and anti-Christian/anti-Jewish hate crimes are on the rise across Europe.

“Miracles CAN happen”: Glenn’s Thanksgiving message after the 2024 election

The events of the 2024 election have given Glenn a new outlook on Thanksgiving this year. For years, he has been begging freedom-loving Americans to stand up for what’s right and return to God. And this year, you did! You gave Donald Trump a strong mandate to gut the Deep State and fix our broken nation. And then, there were the “miracles” of Trump surviving multiple assassination attempts and an endless bombardment from the media and our justice system. This Thanksgiving, there’s a lot for us to be thankful for!

GLENN: So, Stu, how old were you in 1985.

STU: I was nine.

GLENN: You were nine. So you were probably just -- you remember Reagan, clearly.

STU: Yeah. I mean, back to the future, one of my all-time favorite movies.

1955.

'85. That was the year it took place. I remember that distinctly.

GLENN: And you have real memories of the Cold War.

STU: Yeah. For sure.

Of course, Rocky IV, the movie that ended the Cold War. You can accept the time line in your life.

GLENN: Right. So there was a guy that I don't know if you would have remembered.

He was a comedian and he came from around the Iron Curtain, and he and his family got out of the former Soviet Union.

He became a huge hit at the time, because we really didn't see former Soviet citizens.

And especially ones that could tell jokes. And his name was Yakov Smirnoff. Do you remember him?

STU: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

GLENN: Do you remember him? I just saw something from him, the other day, about Thanksgiving. And I haven't seen this. I don't know if I even say it in 1985, but it's worth listening to.

Here he is. Yakov Smirnoff, just fresh from the Soviet Union, talking about Thanksgiving. Listen to this.

VOICE: It's Thanksgiving. And I will tell you, it's my favorite holiday. I like parades without missiles.

When I first was explained about Thanksgiving in America. I said, wait a minute. It doesn't make sense.

I mean, for every freedom. And all the opportunities you've got here. The only thing you have to say is thanks?

It just didn't seem like it was enough.

My parents and I had our first Thanksgiving dinner. In the little apartment in New York.

And we joined hands. And my father said a prayer to good food and our health.

And then something happened.

Instead of releasing our hands. We couldn't let go.

We kept holding on to each other, tighter and tighter. As we realized, we were together. And we were free.

Really free.

And here we were, three who don't even people, looking for a way, we could possibly show our appreciation.

And we couldn't.

Now, I know what it is.

It's thanks.

Good night.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: If you're watching it, you can see that he tears up at the end. There's no words to express thanks. And we have lost -- we have lost that.

The deep, deep gratitude for our lives. I have felt it overt last year. Unlike I've ever felt gratitude for my freedom. My safety. My family's safety.

Being born here. And now, especially after the election, you know, God -- miracles can happen in your life all the time. Just quote, chance encounters. Is it a chance encounter?

Or is that an answer to a prayer? Is that Divine Providence?

Miracles come, when there's really no other explanation. When something that just, you all have agreed that just can't happen. Happens.

Donald Trump, getting shot at. So close, that the camera picks the bullet up.

Speeding toward his head. And just before it goes into his head. He moves his head, in a way he never is it before.

And it clips his ear. Instead of going right into the temple.

That doesn't happen. That doesn't happen. To have a politician, or a guy, who is constantly beat on. Constantly smeared.

Had more investigations done on him, than I -- and I believe this to be true. I would love to see an actual study on this.

Somebody who had more investigations, more spies on him.

More -- you know, going through the trash and everything else.

More than anyone else in human history, by far! Because every spy agency, in the world, did that!

And then they went back and said, there's got to be something else!

For him to just continue to stand, and then when somebody tries to kill him, his first response is, stand up!

And then, for him not to be angry, but instead, to be humbled.

What are the odds there? For him to continue to go on, and, in fact, continue to stand.

Do you know -- his plane was targeted.

His plane was targeted.

We know that there are surface to air missiles. We know that he was going to be targeted by foreign entities, that are here.

For him to just get on his plane every time, the man knew he was risking his life.

For him to run the campaign, that he ran, in the last he eight months. You remember what it was like?

It was all, you know, they're after me.

And all of this stuff. Because they were after him. But did you notice, after the assassination attempt, when he could have said, instead, he had a much more uniting message.

And a happier message.

And a positive message.

And then for all of these people to building out of the woodwork. And start to say. You know what, this is evil.

I heard more talk from people who are not Christians!

More talk from people going, there is something seriously wrong.

And I think it's evil, what's going on.

America woke up. I've been doing this for 50 years. On the radio. Almost 50 years.

I've been -- I've been doing this, warning people for 24 years.

I didn't think you would wake up. Stu brought it up, you know, our theme is, you know, stand up.

We wrote that theme four years ago, because if you don't stand up, we're done.

And we put that on, and I tried to make that an encouraging thing to convince people, you've got to stand up right now. We're going to lose everything.

It's okay to stand up.

It's the only way. You stood up!

After 24 years of the same message, coming from me, in different ways! Where I had lost hope.

I mean, I said to you, all last year, we've got to find God!

We've got to -- we've got to be people, where God thinks, you know what, they're worth saving.

I said to you over and over again. I can come up with a million ways, this is going to go wrong. But there's on me one path for it to succeed.

And that is God.

And he showed up!

He showed up! He's not done with us.

He should be. Honestly, he should be. With everything that we do, for as -- for as big of a miracle as that is. I think a lot of people.

I mean, I heard it right after the election. Wow!

That was a miracle. And people meant it as a literal miracle.

That was a miracle. Yeah! It was.

Next week, will we even remember it, by next Thursday?

Or will we make the holiday that was built to humble ourselves and to thank God for our blessings.

Will we even remember the massive miracle?

Stu, would you agree, one of the miracles you've seen in your life for America.

I mean, that was a miracle. That that happened.

In the way that it did. All of a sudden, the messaging was right. All of the right things fell into place.

You know, for the first time ever, the G.O.P. was serious on their ground game.

I mean, all of these things that happened.

STU: I thought you were just referring to him turning his head.

GLENN: Yeah. And that. All of that.

From that moment on, all of that was a miracle.

Let's not forget that next week. He's not -- he's not done with us.

You know, I heard somebody say to me, on Election Day, I feel really good. I feel really good.

I'm cautious, but I feel really good. And here's why: Why would he recognizing the miracle of the assassination attempt. Why would he save Donald Trump, only to not save it now?

I couldn't think of a reason.

Other than, I don't understand the mind of God.

Think of this miracle.

If Donald Trump would have won in 2020. It would have been more of the first term.

We wouldn't get what we're about to get now.

We wouldn't get the reduction of the government. We wouldn't get possibly the closing down of some agencies, of cutting these agencies in half. We wouldn't have gotten those things.

We wouldn't have Elon Musk. We wouldn't have Vivek Ramaswamy.

We wouldn't have known. Remember, they didn't start cutting our children, until the Biden administration.

None of us had any idea about all this transgender stuff, because that and DEI, if you brought it up, it wasn't being done at least as openly.

But it was all set to go.

It wasn't being done, until Biden got in.

And then when we said, what the hell is all this?

They said, it was a conspiracy theory. And it took us three years, to go, no, it's not.

It's not a conspiracy theory, and it's deadly. It took us three years, before the doctors even started to turn.

It took COVID to wake people up. There is no bad!

There really -- my father used to say this to me. Glenn, there is no bad.

It's what do you do with the bad things that happen to you.

You can either wallow in. And say, oh, that was bad.

Or you can recognize, that sucked!

But what did I learn from it? What did I take?

How can I take that and turn that into a blessing?

COVID was a blessing in the end. Because it woke people up!

Tomorrow, I have some surgery, then I go on vacation.

It's not a big surgery. It's just, I have facial surgery, again.

Because I guess I'm out of room on my face, for more cancer. So they have to take some cancer off my face. So I can grow new cancer.

I don't know what -- this never ends.

But this is my last chance to talk to you before Thanksgiving.

And this is my last chance before Thanksgiving to sincerely thank the Lord for showing up, for sincerely blessing our country.

For showing me a miracle. Two. One that I saw in North Carolina where people were standing because God told them, come from across the country.

I know you don't know anybody.

I know you don't think you're going to be able to make a difference.

But just go.

And they got in their cars. And they drove across the country. And those people were put to work in ways, that I couldn't have served!

Maybe you couldn't have served. But they actually did it! And God worked a miracle. And then he worked this.

Please, even if it is just holding the hands around the table. Just for an extra minute, there is nothing that we can say to him.

More meaningful than just thank you.

Thank you, Lord, for an incredible experience.

Thank you for letting us live at this time, to be in your service. Thank you for waking us up.

Thank you for giving us the reason to stand. Happy Thanksgiving.

How to interact with TRUMP-HATING family members this Thanksgiving

Sunny Hostin of “The View” recently argued that people may be justified in refusing to see their Trump-supporting relatives this Thanksgiving because he’s just that bad. But that’s a terrible message, Glenn says. Politics should NEVER come before family. Glenn responds to a post from BlazeTV and “Fearless with Jason Whitlock” contributor Shemeka Michelle, who is dealing with a similar situation – friends refusing to speak to her because of her support for Trump.

GLENN: So the holidays are -- are such an important time for us to be able to come back together at the table. And there are people on all sides saying, I can't -- I can't get back together with my family.

Let me tell you something.

My family has my traditional family. You know, from way back when I was growing up.

My family.

And now, my family extended and -- and even, you know, with me and my kids.

We've gone through really rough times.

The last few years, have been just deadly.

To my family.

And we are in the struggle of holding absolutely everything together.

And it is hard. But it is worth it, in the end.

My biggest fear, honestly, is becoming my dad. I always wanted to be my dad, in many ways. Because he was always very open-minded. And he was really, really brilliant.

He always questioned everything.

He was very tolerant. And he was hard-working. But in the end, he just became very, very bitter.

And the family -- I mean, he just blew up the family at the end.

And my biggest fear is becoming my father. And I just -- I was awake all last night. Just thinking about that.

All -- tossed and turned for maybe three hours. Just thinking about that.

Because our family is -- we're just having problems.

And all I want is my family to be together.

Be together for the holidays. Be together for Christmas.

And even if we're mad at each other or whatever.

Still, just family is the only thing that you have at the end of your life. That's it.

And so people are now encouraging others. The ladies The View.

At least they disagreed on this. On skipping family Thanksgiving.

Play cut 12.

Let me just play this real quick.

VOICE: Whatever your reason is. I would never let my politics be the reason I don't show up to see my family.

VOICE: I'm going to disagree. I completely understand her point.

Because I really do feel that this candidate, you know, President-elect Trump. Is just a different type of candidate.

From the things he said, and the things he's done. And the things he will do. It's more of a moral issue for me. And I think it's more of a moral issue for other people.

We're just -- you know, I would say it was different when let's say Bush got elected. You know, you may not have agreed with his policies.

But you didn't feel like he was a deeply flawed person -- deeply flawed by character, deeply flawed in morality.

STU: Yeah. They called him a terrorist all the time.

VOICE: They called him flawed.

GLENN: Okay. Stop.

So the going back and forth on this. First of all, if -- if -- no matter which side you're on, I think we can say, it's a moral issue. On both sides.

You can say, it's a moral issue.

He's Hitler. Well, he's not. Well, if you really believe he's Hitler. It's a deeply moral issue.

But it was a deeply moral issue on our side too. Your candidate was for killing babies, all the way up until and in some cases, after birth. There can't be a bigger moral issue.

Your candidate was going after people, because they disagreed with them.

They called Catholics. And parents, showing up at parent meetings. At school. And called them terrorists.

It was a deem moral issue for us too.

You're -- you're mutilating children.

So don't take the moral high ground, that you were the only ones that thought it was a moral issue.

We did are too.

We just disagreed. Now, what does that have to do with me being your father. Or your uncle.

Or your brother?

Your dad?

What does -- what does that have to do with thinking?

Because this too shall pass.

But what won't pass ever, throughout all of the eternities, is our relationship with one another.

We have become so small, that -- that we think that this is the -- this is the most important thing.

It's not.

Do you know who sha Mika Michelle is?

STU: She's on the Jason Whitlock show.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: She posted something the other day. She said, I have a, air quotes, friend who wasn't sure how to hold space for me.

Those are quotes.

As someone who supported Trump. After the election, she stated she needed to protect her peace, and we haven't spoken since. When she comes to her senses, and I know she will, should I welcome her back with open arms?

Because honestly, I'm thinking about giving her the finger, like, F-U.

After we've been through, you sided with baby killers, and those willing to castrate kids.
Go to hell. She asked for thoughts.

And so, Shemika, if I may, I understand how you feel. I really do. I really, really do.

But I think maybe because my family has been divided politically for so long, because of what I do.

You know, it started way before -- you know, it started with Barack Obama.

No. It started with George Bush.

And so I've been going through this the whole time. That I've built in a little bit more armor.

Whatever. Whatever.

It doesn't -- whatever.

This is not important.

Not going to argue with you.

And I'm not going to try to change your mind.

I'm going to try to be a peacemaker.

Last -- one of the holiday. No. It was during the holiday reunion.

There were two members of my family that vote radically different than me.

And see life, radically different than I do.

But I love them. They're good people.

I just love them.

And they were like, you know, uncle Glenn. We can talk to you.

We just want to understand some things.

And I'm like, good. Because I want to understand some things too.

And we just had a really good open conversation, where neither of us were trying to win, we were just trying to understand each other. Because we knew in the end, we will always be related to each other. And I don't have enough family to blow them off.

You know, it's not like my grandfather. I think my who can't understand mother had 18 children. Fourteen of them lived.

And I don't have that. I have two sisters. I have a few nieces and nephews.

I have two grandchildren. I have four children. I don't have enough!

They're all valuable to me. I would ask, and it's -- it will be easier for us because we're -- we're the winners this time.

So it will be easier for us to say, you know, get over it. What's the big deal?

It's still a big deal to people. And you really have to understand, you know, if you've read my book. Propaganda Wars.

You know the brainwashing that's gone on.

I mean, we talk about it, in the book.

And we show you, how to dismantle that in your own life, to make sure you're not a part of it.

You're not spreading it. And it hasn't affected you.

How to find the truth.

These -- these -- actually feel sorry, for not the ones who know what they're doing.

But for the ones that actually believe that they're going to round people up that disagree with them. Because I will be on the front lines. And I think you could probably say this true.

If they started rounding people up because they disagreed. I will be on your side. I will stand with you. I will be with you. They start with the Bill of Rights, and it's in gross ways. I am with you.

I'm for the Bill of Rights. I'm for all of your rights.

I hope you're for all of mine. We're going to disagree on policies. We're going to disagree on how to get there. But my there, should be your there.

I believe all men are free. All men are created equal. You know, you come into this world equal. You leave equal. You leave with nothing!

Except what you've done in your life. And how you lived your life. Who you worship. How you worshiped. Did you serve?

Did you ask for forgiveness? Did you work that forgiveness in your life?

I have more stuff in my life to apologize for than to Pat myself on the back or say, well, thank you. That was a great went I did. I have many more things to apologize for, than any of that. We're all flawed. We're all just trying to figure it out.

We don't want to control people's lives.

Don't miss this opportunity.

Be the peacemaker. Blessed be the peacemakers.

But remember, peacemakers are the ones who stand up for other people's long-term peace. You may have to say things that are true, that are tough.

GLENN: Don't give any ground on truth, but there might be other ways to say the truth, that they can hear it. And you don't have to say everything.

But if you want to be a peacemaker in your life, you have to stand for what is true, universally true.

So others -- our children, our children's children can have peace in their day. That's what it means to be a peacemaker.

But it comes to your family, don't ever listen to anybody who says, don't talk to your family.

That's what cults do.
