"Show Me Your Friends, I'll Show You Your Future"

The Democratic Socialists of America have published their full platform at DSAUSA.org, and Glenn Beck argues that Americans need to read it for themselves rather than relying on secondhand accounts. The platform calls for abolishing the Senate, replacing the presidency and Supreme Court, abolishing ICE and borders, defunding the Pentagon, emptying prisons, and placing large corporations under public ownership. Beck's central claim is that the DSA is not hiding its goals—they are posted openly on a website with a "friendly cartoon fist" waiting for anyone to click. The problem, he says, is that most Americans have never seen them.

Show Notes

Glenn discusses the atrocious shooting that occurred at an In-N-Out restaurant in Twin Falls, Idaho, that left several people dead and multiple wounded in critical condition. While the media is focused on the perpetrator, who died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Glenn focuses on the heroism of a bystander who distracted the gunman from shooting more innocent people. Glenn reacts to Bill Maher’s latest takedown of the socialist takeover of the Democratic Party, which left Maher’s audience shocked when Maher read the actual statements of the Democratic Socialists of America. Glenn exposes the Wisconsin Democratic gubernatorial race normalizing radical “sewer socialist” cost-of-living talk with radical allies and an extreme platform that goes far beyond practical governance.
