Democrats Talk Down to Blacks

Time Text
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to today's edition of Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and with me is Paul Kersey, my indispensable and indefatigable comrade in this venture.
And we are going to spend what may be perhaps our last few seconds on the midterms.
Well, I guess this wasn't really a midterm.
It had to do with the Mississippi Senate race, the runoff for the Senate race.
And it was one in which the white Republican Cindy Hyde-Smith beat the black Democrat Mike Espy in what the major media have been calling a racially tinged or racially charged race.
Which had mainly to do with a perfectly innocent remark that Cindy Hyde Smith had made about expressing admiration for someone saying if he would invite me to a public hanging I'd be there in the front row.
Also, there were images of her with Confederate memorabilia where they pointed out that she had been reared educationally in a school that was for basically only whites.
It was one of those segregation academies.
Yes, yes.
Of course, the school that her parents choose for her is her fault.
No, this was one of those moments where journalists thought that they could insert themselves into the election and try and force, finally, A black candidate to break through.
It didn't happen in Georgia.
It didn't happen in Florida.
They wanted it so badly, Mr. Taylor, to happen in Mississippi.
But she won about 55-45 in a nice, solid victory.
Although closer than it should have been in a state like Mississippi.
Who knows what success there was for Mike Espy in these charges about racial insensitivity, etc.
The thing about being in the front row if I'm invited to a public hanging, that's almost saying, I don't want to go to a public hanging.
But if he invites me, I think so highly of him, I would do it.
It's just an expression of appreciation for this guy.
And then, all of a sudden, it's all lynching, lynching, lynching.
Crazy stuff.
It's as if she'd said, oh, that would be a black mark on his record.
Oh, she's obviously a racist.
They're just making, they're manufacturing this stuff in the most pathetic way.
But one of the reasons I thought that we should bring this up is that the white Republicans' victory prompted a tweet by our friend Timmy Wise, who has been a professional anti-racist activist for years now, several decades now.
He makes a career out of going to college and high school campuses, where he charges $10,000 to $20,000 per talk.
I looked up his schedule, and he's given talks four, five, six a month.
This guy is raking it in, raking it in.
He's being a very nice living, expressing his vitriol for whites.
And the victory in Mississippi of a white Republican prompted the following.
Elections like tonight make it clear justice after 1865, that is to say the end of the Civil War, would have been Mississippi white property being burned to the ground and all the landowners booted off their land and all the wealth redistributed to former slaves and white folks crushed beyond repair.
Sadly, that didn't happen.
Crushed beyond repair.
And this is one of his tamer tweets.
I'm going to challenge WolferHood to try and go through some of his tweets over the past few years, starting with his amazing post you might remember from 2010 when he was obviously drunk and inebriated and he basically said, we're going to crush you with demographics.
This is the last hurrah, white man, as you win back these You know, he went back and he removed the worst parts of that tweet.
Word for word, I should have gotten it out and I could read it to you, but I'd have a hard time finding it.
Now, it's in my book, White Identity, in which he says, you all are going to die.
You all are going to die.
I can hear your hearts beating slower and slower.
And you white people, you white conservatives, you're going to die.
And the sooner the better.
Apparently, after this was pointed out to him, he went back and removed some of those most offensive remarks.
He was able to edit because it was a Facebook post that he made.
And it's fascinating.
Like I said, if you really want to see a window into what these individuals really think and what
they have prepared for us. I highly recommend everybody follow Tim Wise on
Twitter. But he will block you quickly. He blocked me about four years ago. So
does that mean you can't even follow him? Nope. I have to have a puppet
account.
It was fascinating.
He blocked me pretty quick because I used to have an army of people who, once I tweeted at him, they would retweet it and probably contaminate his Twitter feed.
He doesn't want people talking back to him.
No debate.
He's just like all the rest of them, yes.
But what a sad thing.
Colleges and high schools to pay him $10,000 to $20,000.
These are probably... Say he goes to, I don't know, University of Missouri.
It's probably coming out of endowment money from old white graduates.
They are paying this guy to tell white people just how horrible, wicked they are, and the sooner we disappear, the better.
That's pretty much it.
It's a sad thing.
But just a last note on the Democratic Party and how it had behaved.
At the time of these midterms, for the Congress, they nominated an unprecedented 180 women.
At the same time, they nominated 133 people of color.
And that includes American Indians and Muslims, two females ended up in the Congress.
And they also nominated 21 openly LGBT candidates for Congress.
And, according to this news source, this was the first time in the party's history that white men were a minority.
In the House Democratic candidate pool.
That's that's a significant milestone.
And I just hope that the white men were paying attention.
Well, it happens.
This is all happening so quickly.
And I don't think a lot of people have had a chance to even catch their breath, Mr. Taylor, about the radical transformation that's happened before our eyes since Donald Trump became president, with the acceleration of the removal of white males from any position of authority or power, or in the pipeline, even in the bench, for future positions and for future leadership roles.
Yes, a lot of people have pointed out that in the races for state house, white men, you know, you got to pull out a magnifying glass or a set of binoculars to actually find a few.
They are very, very clearly shifting that way.
And as you say, there's not even going to be a bench of white men.
No.
So let's hope they're getting the message.
And then this leads us to a very interesting study about Democrats and Republicans that was conducted by researchers at Yale and Princeton.
And what they did was examine the speeches of U.S.
presidential candidates, white candidates, over the past 25 years.
To see if their vocabulary changed at all, depending on whether or not they were addressing a black or a white audience.
And what they found is that Democratic candidates, when they spoke to minority audiences, they used fewer competence-related words.
Those are words having to do with ability or status and I can do it and this, that, and the other.
They're much more sort of touchy-feely, soft stuff.
And they altered their vocabulary clearly to make themselves seem less threatening somehow to non-white audiences.
This was not the case of the Republicans, whose speeches had absolutely no change in vocabulary depending on the color of the race of the audience.
And I thought this was very interesting.
They did a follow-up study based on this.
And this was using students, in which they would take white participants and they would assign to them a hypothetical interaction by email.
And they were given a situation in which they were to send a message to someone with a typically white name or typically black name.
So, whether or not it went to Emily or to LaShonda, they used different words.
They had a whole section of words that they could choose.
And when the liberal ones, and they tested them otherwise to determine who was liberal on race, the liberal ones, when they were sending a message to LaShonda, they used simpler vocabulary.
They would say sad rather than melancholy because they could select words only from a prearranged list.
But the people who were not found to be liberal, they were the ones who were not talking down to blacks.
Now, of course, the people who found this, they think, oh, they're all wringing their hands about how, oh, even the best intentioned white people suffer from stereotypes.
They got to simplify their language.
They're talking down to them.
I don't know.
Maybe they're doing them a kindness.
Maybe they're being realistic.
In a way, they could have found exactly the opposite situation here.
That the Republicans or the people who are less liberal were talking down.
But they did not find that.
If they found that, you can imagine how excited and upset they would be.
I'm actually shocked they didn't find.
That both conservative and liberal-leaning people both had the same reactions and attitude when it came to engaging and interacting with blacks.
Yes, it both could have done, or it could have gone the other way.
It's hard to say.
The point is, it's very interesting that liberals apparently are that much more conscious of their racial interlocutor than conservatives.
I mean, I guess conservatives, many of them really are.
At least trying to be, and maybe are, more or less race blind.
But who are these Dems or not?
They are racially conscious all the time.
If only when it mattered.
When it came to policy, right?
Yes, if only in the right direction.
We have to put a caveat there, an asterisk.
Yes, yes.
And then there was another interesting thing.
Just this week, the New Jersey State House has begun to debate a marijuana decriminalization bill that has been approved by a joint legislative committee.
Now, I hadn't been aware of this, but when he was running for governor in New Jersey, the Democratic candidate, Philip Murphy, pledged to legalize the recreational use of marijuana.
Now, do you know what he gave as the main reason for doing so?
I've got a guess, but I don't want to ruin the surprise.
Oh, you go ahead and guess.
I would guess the disproportionate enforcement of marijuana laws when it came to people of color, primarily blacks, versus their white counterparts.
Absolutely right.
That was his idea.
That was his.
Because in New Jersey, blacks are three times more likely to be charged with marijuana possession than whites.
Well, this obviously means that the law is no good.
It has to be changed.
Interestingly enough, Blacks are holding out on this.
You would think that, okay, if they believe that this is all unfair, that there shouldn't be a charge, they'd just be on the bandwagon immediately.
But they have tacked a condition onto this.
They say that, first of all, Ronald Price, he's the longest-serving black senator and he leads the black caucus.
He's afraid that if pot is legalized, it's going to be pot stores in black communities, like liquor stores, and they'll have a whole new generation of druggies.
But most blacks, they don't have that particular objection, but they're holding the idea hostage with the idea that it must be coupled with what's called expungement of past convictions.
And it makes sense, in a way, if you're going to say, OK, it's no longer a crime to possess marijuana.
If you've got a record for possession, then we're going to expunge that.
But here, this guy, he is the chairman of the New Jersey Legislative Black Caucus Foundation.
He says, if expungement weren't a part of this, legalization wouldn't happen.
They wouldn't have the black votes.
And then he goes on to say, there is no way I would support legalization without expungement.
That's an interesting thing.
They are not interested in evaluating legalization on its own merits.
What they're looking for is a way to get black criminals or people with a record cleared.
And I guess that would presume, it doesn't say in this article, but would that mean also to release the gates of prisons and let those who just have Who have pled down to marijuana charges out.
Well, see, that's the thing.
If they are in jail for possession of small quantities, if that's the legal charge...
Then, logically speaking, you would have to release them.
Of course, as you're suggesting in your observation here, in many cases, this is a plea for people who have been peddling marijuana or been doing other things.
Who knows?
It's the easiest way to clear them off the books.
You don't have to take up judge time, jury time, court time.
They plead down to a possession charge, and you put them away for a while, not telling what they were up to.
But if all those people and some of those crimes could have been quite imaginative, not just possession, they might be walking the streets too.
But I don't know for sure if that's the case.
I haven't read anything about releasing those who are in.
But interestingly enough, there are more black Democrats who say that, okay, if we're going to clear the names of people who had possession charges or small amounts of marijuana, Let's clear the way for possession for other drugs, cocaine, heroin, and maybe some other nonviolent convictions.
So they're gonna hold up this legislation in a way to clear the records of people who've been convicted.
Very interesting.
Then the other aspect of this, and it just shows you the black mentality.
It's incredible.
Gotta grease those palms, Mr. Taylor.
I thought those palms were naturally greasy.
Oh, I didn't say that.
But a statewide coalition of black pastors, these are men of the cloth, say they want to make sure that members of their community are going to participate in the tons of money that legal cannabis is going to make.
They say the wealth being generated where marijuana is already legal is not reaching people of color.
And, in a sense, they're right.
Because according to something called Marijuana Business Daily, boy, we really are in a new era, aren't we?
You know, most brokerages right now in the United States, you actually cannot buy marijuana stocks because they have a moral stand against that.
So you have to go outside other brokerage firms to be able to purchase marijuana stocks, which I've read are Supposedly going to be the largest growth sector.
Well, you know, a friend of mine is a very savvy investor.
He retired from Goldman Sachs.
He has already made a bunch of money shorting marijuana stocks.
They've had their bubble, but he thinks maybe the bubble has cooled and the serious operators are still in business and there you might get money on the upside.
He's already made money on the downside.
So he's streets ahead of you and me.
In any case, according to Marijuana Business Daily, they say that 81% of the cannabis business owners are white, and only 4% are black.
So people of color are being, no doubt due to racism, institutional bias, white privilege, systematic, systematic badness, they're being kept out of the profits of the business.
Well, what states is cannabis actually legal for recreational use?
Colorado?
I think Alaska?
Alaska and California for medicinal purposes, I believe.
Well, apparently in New Jersey, it's already legal for medicinal purposes.
I just don't know how widespread it is.
In Washington, D.C., it's pretty much legal.
But, you know, people are gearing up, apparently, to make tons of money.
But what this coalition of black preachers want is some commitment by the statehouse that some portion of the revenue from marijuana sales is going to be used to provide education and job training for people of color.
They just want to make sure that they're going to get a non-profit created and their names that has direct funding from the sales of cannabis.
It's that simple.
But you know, I wonder how that would work, really.
Would it be legal to say, OK, you're a private business.
These are private businesses.
Are they going to tax?
Are they going to have a special tax on this that goes straight into some sort of organization that's going to spend money only on non-whites?
Think about the practicalities here.
I don't think they're thinking about them at all, of course.
They're just thinking about money, money, money.
The so-called gives me that, as you see, that's in an action right here.
It sure is.
And, you know, again, I love the line, and this is something that we can't say enough, Tom Wolfe's fantastic observation from Bonfire the Vanities when he talks about Reverend Bacon and steam control.
That's what these reverends are all about.
We've got to keep the valves, make sure they're off, because if we turn them on, we can do that any moment.
You won't like what happens.
You saw what happened in the late 1960s.
You saw the LA riots.
You saw it in Ferguson.
You saw a glimpse of it in Charlotte when that black person was shot reading a book.
We can turn the steam on at any time, and it just shows that our country truly is held hostage by this group.
See, I wonder how realistic that is, though.
Do you think that if a bunch of black preachers got behind the pulpit and said, get out there and riot, you think that could cause it to happen?
I'm not convinced.
I think these things happen sort of spontaneously.
They might happen spontaneously.
I do remember a couple years ago a friend pointed this out.
There was this crazy story about, I want to say it was about Ferguson or about some shooting by a police officer.
And this black preacher let slip that he had been on a conference call early with other black preachers across the nation about how to respond to this.
And I remember my friend noted, Did you catch that?
I said, yeah, that was one of the strangest slips of this coordinated effort that goes on.
And how do you get on that conference call?
I'd love to be a fly on the wall that can log in and hear these calls.
You know, we ran a review of an excellent write-up of the Reverend Al Sharpton by a guy who thinks pretty much the way we do.
And he said, he estimated that Al Sharpton is on first name terms with hundreds, maybe even a thousand black preachers all around the country.
There is a whole network.
And Al Sharpton appears to be right in the middle of it.
So yes, they can get together and they can coordinate.
But whether they be capable of producing a genuine riot, I don't know.
Maybe you're right.
But I think these things happen more at a more sort of organic level.
But then, you know, maybe George Soros is capable of starting riots.
I don't know.
But to move on to another example of like Governor Murphy saying that the rules have to be changed because black people are unable to abide by them.
Here is a similar sort of story in which a UC Berkeley history professor He's white.
His name is Brian DeLay.
He says that when you give students the opportunity to rate their teachers, and this is increasingly common.
You go on a website and you see, I know this guy's good, this guy's no good.
When they give them an opportunity to rate their professors, they unfairly downrate women and racial minorities.
Now, he says this is so obviously unfair that schools have to stop using student evaluations for hiring, promotion, tenure decisions.
He's not necessarily at the point of saying, well, we're just going to ban these things.
He concedes that in his own evaluations, he has had criticism that has been good for him, that he's learned some things and decided to do things differently.
Here you have this typical boneheaded response.
You look at the levels of suspension, the rate of suspension for blacks in school.
Oh, it's unfair.
Or if you look at ratings for black professors.
Oh, must be unfair.
Hey, if all things are equal, just blame white racism.
It's the simplest explanation.
No one is going to dare raise a hand and say, well, wait a second.
I'm not quite sure that that actually jives with reality.
Hold on, hold on.
You know, the only person who's doing that right now who has access to the mainstream is Tucker Carlson.
And look what happens.
There was a Washington Post story today by this guy who's basically stalking Tucker.
I don't remember the author's name.
This journalist who went and looked at the website Daily Stormer and has noticed that, my gosh, Tucker Carlson gets praised almost daily on this site.
He's neo-Nazi's favorite personality.
Tucker, what do you say about this?
Are you a Nazi, Tucker?
I'm sure they're expecting me to say, yeah, I read that site every day and I get my ideas for my show from Andrew Anglin.
They're just idiots.
Idiots.
But yes, thank goodness for him.
Thank goodness for Ann Coulter.
Thank goodness for Patrick Buchanan.
There's still a few people who've got access to the mainstream who are clearly able to speak the truth.
Well, thank goodness for Heather MacDonald, someone that you praise.
Heather MacDonald, another national treasure.
She's got a great book out called The Diversity Delusion.
I would recommend that if you're looking for a Christmas gift, dear listener, Check out Heather McDonald's new book, The Diversity Delusion.
Quite good.
It's very comprehensive on all of the craziness, mostly in universities.
But yes, she's capable of saying, well, wait a minute.
If blacks are being disciplined at a higher rate, maybe it's because they're breaking the rules at a higher rate.
I mean, at least when it comes to fair beaters, they're capable of saying, hmm, yes, most of the fair beaters are black and brown, so we're going to change the rules.
It's just deliberate blindness of the most contemptible sort.
But here now we've got another act of deliberate blindness.
This was a story that you called to my attention, well worth it.
Blicking's Institution.
They have done an extensive study and they have found that when you actually find houses that are equivalent in black neighborhoods and white neighborhoods, and apparently if they've got equivalent schools and equivalent this, equivalent transport, everything is equivalent.
Except for whether it's a black neighborhood or white neighborhood, the difference in house price is $48,000.
$48,000 cheaper for the black house.
Now, you might say, well, gosh, that means black people get a break on their mortgages.
They get a break on their home prices.
Good for them.
But no, no, no, no.
That's not what Brookings says.
Brookings says this represents a 23% discount On average, across the country, and it means society owes them $48,000.
Well, this article tries to say that this cost, this $48,000 cost, is evidence of racial bias.
Right.
And that this has wiped out a cumulative of $156 billion in black wealth.
This is why there is this, oh my gosh, the white household has a net worth of A couple hundred thousand dollars versus blacks have a net worth.
Actually, if I remember the article correctly, I think the average black household net worth in the article, quote, it was just over $3,000.
And the white average is about $135,000.
Correct.
Correct.
And you're looking at this, you're like, but wait a second.
You know, if I were If I'm looking at this correctly, and I'm a young first-time white homebuyer, I would go buy a home in a black neighborhood, as long as I didn't have any children to have to worry about sending to schools.
Because guess what?
I could buy the same house for... But wait a minute.
According to this analysis, the schools are the same.
What?
The schools are the same.
Okay, if the schools are, in all things being equal, gosh, I could go get a big discount living in a black neighborhood.
Why would I pay the white Why would I pay the white tax, the white mortgage tax?
Exactly, exactly.
And then, curiously enough, they go on to look around the country and they find that the racism tax that drags down black homeowner values reduces them by 65% in Rochester, New York.
On the contrary, if you are in a black neighborhood in Boston, you have to pay a premium of 23%.
This makes no sense at all.
Are the people of Boston, Massachusetts somehow completely different from the people elsewhere in the country?
None of this makes a bit of sense, really.
No, but the problem with this study that Brookings did with Zillow.com, which is a fantastic real estate site, I go there all the time to find fantastic data about neighborhoods, communities, property values.
That's actually where I was able to figure out what the property value was for the Shelley House in St.
Louis, of course, from Shelley B. Kramer.
That's a great story.
I probably want to republish that at AR.
It's fantastic.
But the point of this is, This makes great white guilt porn for newspapers across the country.
You pop this on a headline, all you have to do is say, you know, black homes are worth $48,000 less.
You know, the $156 billion in wealth that's wiped out.
You don't have to put anything else in.
That's all you have to have.
In the inverted pyramid style, that's all you have to have.
The headline that blames white people.
A couple other sentences, a couple quotes from the SPLC, racial bias, implicit bias, structural racism.
Blah, blah, blah.
And you get this nonsense.
And when you get to the bottom of that inverted pyramid, what you find is, and if I continue quoting from the story, the authors say, if we can detect how much racism depletes wealth from black homeowners, we can begin to address bigotry principally by giving black homeowners and policymakers a target price for redress.
That was why I thought this story was so important, because this is laying that foundation for going after undue gains when it comes to appreciation in homes, even 401k.
I mean, this is a terrifying example of racial socialism in action.
The redistributionist mindset that will come into play as whites become an increasingly disenfranchised, powerless, voiceless minority with no representation.
Boy, oh boy.
And the thing about it is, even if that happens to whites, it's not as though black neighborhoods are suddenly going to become more desirable.
No.
Nothing will change.
It's the opposite.
Yes, yes.
These dwindling whites, they're still going to live in neighborhoods.
Somehow, inexplicably, they're more desirable.
It's just one of the great mysteries of 21st century America, what has dragged on from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries.
It's just a miracle.
But let's see.
Hillary Clinton's been in the news, along with her Secretary of State John Kerry.
They apparently are now chiding European leaders and urging them to find a way to limit immigration.
Now, they are not criticizing the fact of Middle Eastern immigration or Muslim immigration itself.
They are thinking that it might have to be controlled because it results in right-wing populism.
I thought this was a very interesting angle on this.
Apparently, swapping out the population of Germany and swapping in the population of Syria or Turkey would be just fine, except for the fact that partway through the process, it upsets the Germans and they get right-wing populism, whatever that means.
But the way Hillary Clinton put it, I thought this was absolutely fascinating.
She says, the thinking behind right-wing populism, which is prompted by demographic change, is the following.
Keep people diverted, keep them riled up, appeal to their prejudices, give them a sense they are part of something bigger than themselves, while elected leaders and business leaders steal them blind.
She says it's a classic story, and Bannon is the latest avatar of it.
Steal the blind.
Now, I think she's wanted to talk.
Yeah.
She and Billy, didn't they loot part of the White House on their way out?
Well, that of course, and not to get into the semantics and the weeds, you look at the Clinton Foundation, what that was set up for, basically a pay for play, the fact that the Clinton Foundation donations are down since the Clintons have no access to power.
So they could steal world leaders and those who were hoping, business individuals, who are hoping to have a ally in the White House.
Well, those donations have dried up.
But not to be outdone, look at what our friend John Kerry, former Secretary of State, said.
Yeah, what's he saying?
He said, quote, Europe is already crushed under this transformation that is taking place
due to migration.
In Germany, Angela Merkel is weakened.
Italian politics is significantly impacted.
You know, Italian politics have been significantly impacted in a very positive manner by Salvini, who has not only ensured that the UN pact on migration was knocked down, but his party is growing by leaps and bounds in popularity.
And, you know, people are only, as the great Greg Hood told me one time, people are only as right-wing as they're allowed to be.
And what we're seeing in Europe, because of these open border policies, leaders are popping up.
And what they're saying, they're allowed to start saying these things.
It's not tolerated, mind you, by the powers that be, but they're given a voice because of these migration policies that have happened so quickly.
Well, it is, of course, hugely significant that the view of the people, which has been here so infrequently expressed, is now being expressed at the top.
That's very, very important for the Europeans.
And some people say that it makes a huge difference in the United States, and I wouldn't necessarily disagree with that either, although I think this typical leftist idea that it's thanks to Donald Trump that Jared Taylor and Paul Kersey have come out from under their flat rock and are saying these things, Of course not.
Of course not.
We've been saying it forever.
But it does have a significant effect, no doubt about it.
What's curious to me is that, you know, I wish I could sit John Kerry down and ask him, what do you mean by this?
Europe is already crushed under this transformation due to immigration?
What do you mean by that?
Do you mean simply that, okay, it means that the politicians who agree with you are being voted out of office?
Or do you genuinely realize what's happening to Europe?
I think it's really most of the former.
He thinks it'll all be fine, because that's clearly Hillary Clinton's view.
The demographic transformation is fine if it can be accomplished without, at least temporarily, throwing these fascists back up into power.
But at least they're noticing, and the message to Europe is, you better get a hold of this.
Well, I think, I would actually argue that they're noticing because the damage has already been done.
There's already enough people in Germany and France and in England that it doesn't matter if you were to put up walls.
As long as you don't deport, the damage has been done demographically because they are going to take over by their wombs.
And it's that simple.
And you don't need to keep people coming over.
They've already got the barbarians inside the gate, so to speak.
And so it's almost a That they do, that they do.
But moving on, moving back to President Trump.
This was just a small item, but I thought it was interesting.
President Trump recently selected seven people to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Now, I don't generally approve of the selections for these people.
Babe Ruth was one of his selections.
I think these were people that Donald Trump admired when he was younger, so... I guess so, I guess so.
Another one is, there was a black football player named Alan Page.
I'm sorry, I live in this football-free bubble.
I have no idea who Alan Page was, but apparently he was a wonderful football player.
But one of Trump's choices was Elvis Presley.
And this is yet another example of this mentality towards Donald Trump, according to which the man can do nothing right.
And Chris Richards, a pop culture critic of the Washington Post, said awarding Presley was racist.
He says, it was a little nod to the good old days back when black visionaries could invent rock and roll, but only a white man could become the king.
And, once again, in a typical act of mind reading, this fellow Chris Richards says that the president obviously knows that Elvis Presley stole rock and roll from black musicians.
Knowing that he's a complete thief and honoring this thief just because he is white makes the whole thing bogus and racist.
Well we automatically know that this pop culture critic has it all wrong because if you've seen the great movie Forrest Gump you know that it was Forrest Gump himself as a young boy when he was wearing his leg crutches who was walking and Elvis Presley happened to be staying at this boarding house and he saw the kid walk and then a couple days later he went on the one of the shows at the time and did the Elvis Presley strut and he stole it of course from Forrest Gump.
A movie you've probably never seen but I'm sure a number of our listeners are well keenly aware of that of that movie reference.
That is one I actually saw.
Yes.
As I say, I live in a bubble, and a few things manage to, I shouldn't say pollute the bubble, but bits of pop culture manage to wiggle their way in from time to time.
But, you know, our next item reminds me of the extent to which the mainstream media have gone crazy to the point where this guy who writes for the Washington Post is accusing Donald Trump of racism for selecting Elvis Presley for an award.
That's racism.
Well, they have completely lost their minds.
They are publishing stuff that people find increasingly grotesque.
And as you know, the credibility of the mainstream media is dropping all the time.
Now, As is their circulation.
Yes, but the way they seem to want to combat that, the general leftist approach to this, is not to regain some kind of at least appearance of objectivity, it's to shut everybody else up.
Because as they lose credibility, as their circulation drops, it makes it far more likely that people will listen to us, people go on Twitter, And read the ideas of people with whom the Washington Post might disagree.
Man, so, okay, as their credibility drops and as people go elsewhere, what's the solution?
Shut the other people up!
Now, one of the Twitter bans that particularly struck me was that of Laura Loomer.
Laura Loomer may or may not be known to our readers, but she's actually quite a courageous activist in some respects.
One of the things she did that I thought was great, a book signing by author Chelsea Clinton.
Chelsea Clinton apparently is important and popular enough to have written an autobiography.
She came up to Chelsea Clinton and asked her to autograph one in the name of Juanita Broderick.
Which is, of course, one of the women who claims that, and with apparent justification, that Chelsea Clinton's papa, Bill, made some untoward advances.
Maybe not just advances.
He actually succeeded with her, against her will.
But I thought, you know, that took something.
And apparently, since she has been booted off of On Twitter, she has made a point of pointing out that why was she booted off?
She said that she was talking about Ilhan Omar, this new Somali representative, congresswoman in Minnesota.
She says she's anti-Jewish, that she's a member of a religion in which, quote, homosexuals are oppressed, women are abused, and forced to wear hijabs.
No.
And she's also worked with Rebel Media.
She worked with James O'Keefe's Project Braytos.
And now, even as we speak, I understand, she is at the Twitter headquarters.
She's chained herself to a stair railing.
Correct.
She's handcuffed herself and thrown away the key.
And she's got a big poster up that she plastered up over the door.
She's actually one of the top trending tweets in the entire world for doing what she's doing here.
hateful. Farrakhan's got his account, how come I haven't got mine? And so she's
making quite a spectacle and drawing attention to the to the to the double
standard. She's actually one of the top trending tweets in the entire world for
doing what she's doing here and you know Laura Loomer you know she's she's done a
lot of stuff on Twitter where she didn't come out necessarily as an ally of white
advocates in the dissident right but she is not an enemy.
She said a number of things that were actually very encouraging for someone of her Because, as you said, she had 260,000 followers and she was sounding the alarm of what's happening in Minnesota with the concentration of Somalis there that have enabled these communities to form that are now enabling them to elect Somali representatives to agitate specifically for Muslim Somali interests.
And I hand it off to Laura.
She does great work and, of course, she has been banned The left will laugh and say that, oh, you've now been banished to a website like Gab, but I say, hey, you know, more power to Gab for having someone like Laura now who brings her followers and more eyeballs to create accounts and to start frequenting Gab.
The other thing apparently Laura Loomer has done is she has put a yellow star on her clothing where she's out demonstrating.
It says Yudah on it.
Yes.
And she says she's being kicked off because she's Jewish, whereas Louis Farrakhan, who has said nasty things about Jews, is doing just fine.
Yeah, I believe she has said that white people deserve a home of their own, just as Jews deserve a home of their own in Israel.
So, yeah, she is certainly not an enemy from our point of view at all.
And it's quite interesting that she has really not taken her banning sitting down.
I think it's great.
And by the time people listen to this podcast, people will know what eventually happened to her.
But we wonder, it's possible that she could be reinstated.
I don't know, this sort of thing could have an effect.
We talk about this a lot, how courage is contagious.
And as opposed to sitting down and not doing anything about being banished from a site, being deplatformed, she's taken the fight and she has now turned it into a massive worldwide news story.
Right, right.
Good for her.
Absolutely good for her.
And her, she may end up beating Twitter just the way this Jesse Kelly guy.
He is a young fellow.
I think he's not even 40 years old.
He has an Iraqi war veteran.
He's a former Marine.
He was a two-time GOP congressional candidate and a radio host.
A conservative guy on Twitter.
He had 80,000 followers and he just got banned for no reason at all.
They wouldn't even say why he was banned.
No, they didn't.
He was a perfectly kosher conservative sort of fellow.
Nothing really out of line.
But he got a lot of conservative folks lined up behind him.
And apparently he's back on Twitter now.
But then here's yet another one that Twitter recently banned just this week.
A prominent feminist named Megan Murphy.
And she's one of these people who refuses to accept the idea that a man just with a pair of scissors and a few pills can turn into a woman.
And she tweeted a few things like, women aren't men.
And she says, how are trans women not men?
What's the difference between a man and a trans woman?
Now this isn't some just kook either.
She's written for Vice News, CBC News, that's Canadian Broadcasting, Globe and Mail, that's a British, no that's a Canadian paper also.
But she was permanently Suspended from Twitter because Twitter apparently has recently implemented a ban against misgendering.
Explain that one to me, will you?
Well, no, it's not just misgendering transgender people.
They've also something called dead gendering and dead naming.
This makes me want to just go to a Catholic church, join a, you know, Find some place to just go whole up and never, ever interact with the world when you read what Twitter's doing to sanitize their website from, like you said, misgendering, dead gendering, and dead naming.
Yeah, apparently misgendering is if you refer to a man who claims he's a woman as he.
Correct.
Pronouns, pal.
Yeah, yes.
Pronouns can get you banned.
The wrong pronoun.
You might claim it was a grammatical error.
No, no.
And apparently, dead gendering means you're using their old gender, their old sex.
Their old sex has been killed and gone, and you resurrect it, and you refer to them as a man or a woman or whatever they think they aren't anymore.
That's dead gendering.
If you use their former name, Who was that army guy?
He's now Chelsea.
Manning.
Bradley Manning.
Or you could say the Kardashian clan guy, Bruce Jenner.
No, no, no.
Bruce Jenner died.
We buried Bruce.
And to talk about Bruce, that is dead naming.
And that can get you taken off too.
You know, I want to apologize to our listeners who had to just listen to that absurd Breakdown of the new world order that we live under when it comes to this totalitarian PC nonsense that again, this is the how could you?
I'm not going to say when I graduated, but it wasn't that long ago from high school or college.
And this kind of stuff wasn't even around.
Unimaginable.
This was unimaginable.
And this is a decade ago.
This stuff is happening so quickly.
And that's why there is such a top-down, big-tech enforcement of this to try and make sure that there cannot be any condemnation or criticism of where this is going.
It's all very well to say this is the way it should be, but simply by stamping out any expression that goes counter to their vision of the world, it is just an astonishing power that they are exercising in the most transparently brutal and one-sided way.
We bring his name up a lot, Mr. Taylor, and Steve Saylor saw this coming.
He dubbed it World War T, I believe, four years ago.
And he was one of the few people who was seeing where these winds were blowing.
What did he mean by T?
Transgender?
Yeah.
We're transgender.
Because he was thinking, where do they go next?
Once they win with gay marriage, once they win with the agenda that pop culture, that movies, that television shows have been pushing, what comes next?
Well, it sticks with this letter T because just today I read about a woman who claims that she is a cat trapped in a human body.
So the next one is trans-speciesism.
And are we supposed to have new pronouns for people who are trans-species?
And if she claims that she's a cat, she apparently claims she can communicate by meowing.
She hates water.
She loves to eat fish.
She's a cat.
She's convinced she's a cat.
And who are we to say no?
Who are we to say no?
If she says she's a man, then we'll all agree with that.
Well, why not a cat?
I've got no comment.
Well, yes, that's wise.
That's wise.
Then we're moving on to Michigan, and apparently nine girls were forced to undergo female genital mutilation at a clinic In the Michigan area, it's a clinic in Livonia, Michigan, and it's thought that 100 girls over a 12-year period were snipped by Dr. Jumana Nagarwala.
Now, Dr. Jumana Nagarwala is a member of an Indian Muslim clan, and they have a mosque in Livonia, Michigan.
They are members of the Dawoodi Bohra clan.
They have a very snappy-looking mosque, actually.
I did see pictures of it as well, yes.
Yeah, boy, it looks like something straight out of Karachi.
Very handsome, great-looking mosque.
In any case, they do this because it is a religious rite of passage and it is performed to suppress female sexuality, reduce sexual pleasure, and curb promiscuity.
They don't want their girls enjoying sex, so they snip off the clitoris.
In any case, They were found guilty of violating a federal law that forbids this.
And this is the interesting aspect of it, really.
The federal law is 22 years old, but A U.S.
District Court Judge Bernard Friedman has come out as an absolute fire-eater states' rights boy.
Yes.
He says that this federal law is unconstitutional, that female genital mutilation is a local criminal activity that should be regulated by the states, not the federal government.
He says the practice is despicable, but Female genital mutilation is not part of a larger market, and it has no demonstrated effect on interstate commerce, so the Commerce Clause does not permit Congress to regulate a crime of this nature.
Wow, this is breathtaking.
It is.
Absolutely breathtaking.
If you can decriminalize or if you can say that this is strictly a state matter, wow, what about abortion?
What about abortion?
What about same-sex marriage?
Gee, what about, I mean, could a state ban circumcision?
I suppose it could.
Why not?
How about even integration of schools or integration of neighborhoods?
These are not interstate commerce.
No, bring back restrictive covenants and then white flight ends over Yes, yes.
This is amazing to me.
Twenty-seven states actually have laws that criminalize genital mutilation, and Michigan passed one in 2017 when this lady whose name I can't remember, Dr. Jumara... Nagarwala.
Nagarwala.
When Dr. Nagarwala was indicted... Good Irish name.
Right, right.
But they cannot be charged under this law because that would be ex post facto.
Correct.
So, I'm just wondering, what is this Judge Bernard Friedman really thinking?
Is he expecting this to be struck down?
I am a great believer in states' rights, frankly.
Certainly, the way the federal government is moving these days, states are really going to be our only salvation.
And as the descendant of many loyal Confederates who fought for independence, I have a real fond spot in my heart for the idea of state sovereignty.
But I thought this is very, very significant for that reason, and we'll see where this goes.
We'll see this in the Supreme Court.
I dare say.
I dare say.
Or, you know, it may be struck down by the Court of Appeals for that circuit.
Who knows?
But I thought that was a fascinating ruling.
It's interesting, of course, that female genital mutilation is taking place by Indians, for heaven's sake.
I mean, it just goes to show you, you know, you never can tell.
But I thought we should not end this podcast without an update on the caravan.
The caravan, there are about 6,000 of them in Tijuana, and it turns out that one-third of them are being treated for medical issues.
That's, yes, over a third.
2,267 apparently have already been treated for something.
They've got three confirmed cases of TB, tuberculosis, four cases of HIV-AIDS, got four cases of chicken pox, 101 of them have lice and there are many instances of skin infections.
So, we have to keep an eye on these people.
Not necessarily the kind we want coming into the country, but They are all crammed together in something called the Benito Juarez Sports Complex.
There's this huge tent city.
I've seen photographs of it.
The tents are really jam-packed together.
They had to put up a sign reading, no spitting.
I assume it was in Spanish.
Because people were hacking and coughing and just spitting all over the place.
And they're afraid that we might very well get a hepatitis break out there.
And Tijuana Mayor Juan Manuel Gastelum, he said just on Tuesday, yesterday, that the city is spending $30,000 a day feeding these people and medicating them, and money is running out.
And he says, you know, we just can't do this.
We can't dip into our budget this way.
Well, money tolerance and compassion is running out.
Yes.
The people of Tijuana are sick of these people.
They didn't like them right from the start.
And this is Tijuana we're talking about.
You know, this isn't Boulder, Colorado, or, you know... Nope.
Nope.
Well, it just goes to show you how... Well, the sort of folks that the ACLU and all the libs in our country think should come to our country, and by the tens of thousands... They're more American, as we say all the time, Mr. Taylor.
These are more American than you or I. That's right.
That's right.
Now, apparently, just on Tuesday, 80 of them decided to clear out.
They went home.
And another 98 were deported by the Mexican immigration officials because they were involved in that attempt on Sunday to rush the American border, tear gas, all of that.
So they've been kicked out.
So all of that is a very, very encouraging step.
They're leaving.
And, you know, I don't, in a way, I don't like the idea of deliberate cruelty.
On the other hand, if the word gets out that these people are not having the time of their life, they haven't just waltzed across the border into the arms of American social workers and the welfare system, it's going to send a message.
It will send a message, and I do want to point out You and I have been hard on President Trump throughout his entire time in office, but I think this was one of the more commendable moments that we've seen from President Trump.
I agree.
I agree.
I think he's really stood firm and he has shown some real backbone here.
And the fact that he told the guys, you know, let loose.
Well, he must have given the order.
Do whatever it takes to keep him off the wall.
And they let fly with tear gas.
Of course, everybody is all Weepy, weepy, weepy, because apparently there were some children who were trying to rush the border, too, and they came running away with tear gas.
We have to feel all bad, bad, bad about that.
But, yep, I think, yes, I have to agree with you.
He did the right thing, and he gets our support and applause.
Now, On the last of our podcasts, we did promise that those who wrote in and entered our lottery for a signed copy of If We Do Nothing would get, we would choose one person, one lucky person to get a signed copy of my latest book, If We Do Nothing.
Well, we had so many people writing in, we had over 100 people writing in, and so we decided to pick three.
And we will not announce your full names over the air because we live in evil times and we know that you can be persecuted for thinking sensible thoughts about taboo subjects.
But I'd like to alert James and John.
And Scott, keep an eye on your inboxes because tomorrow you should be getting an email message from headquarters.
And if you send us your mailing address, we would be happy to send you a copy of my latest book.
So thank you very much for entering.
And we'll have to come up with something else.
And I say we had promised one, but in the spirit of the holidays, In the spirit of white man's generosity, we've decided to make this award to three people.
And so thank you very much for being in touch.
And we'll have to come up with other interesting, oh, maybe lotteries and giveaways.
I'll do one more real quick.
So if you are listening, you made it this far.
All the way through this podcast and I was overwhelmed by the response to the email.
So thank you so much for all those who listen.
I was very touched by the praise that you gave Mr. Taylor and myself for this podcast.
I'm glad people enjoyed out there and we encourage you to share it with your friends and family.
Those that won't get you banned and barred from those friendships or from those homes for holidays down the line.
So be careful who you share it with but please do share.
I would like to also, in the spirit of Christmas coming up, to offer an extension of the raffle lottery.
If you send me an email at sbpdl1 at gmail.com.
Once again, that is sbpdl1 at gmail.com.
I'll pick one person who sends an email to send a signed copy of my latest book, Because We Live Here, a term that Mr. Taylor doesn't exactly like, but this is a compilation of the best of Paul Kersey.
It's a fantastic book, and once again, I'd love to give one away to a listener who shoots over their email, and Spirit of Christmas.
That's right.
The best of Paul Kersey.
You know that's going to be awfully good.
And then one other important announcement.
I was going to open this podcast with this announcement, and that is we now have a YouTube channel.
The YouTube channel is called Amran Podcasts.
Now you can go and listen to our entire our entire back issue list or our back our back podcast list of over 100, by the way.
And you can also become a subscriber.
And that means that whenever we upload the latest podcast, you will get an email message immediately.
So please go and subscribe to AmRen Podcasts.
And while you're subscribing, we also have the American Renaissance channel, which is our videos.
I urge all of our listeners If they are so inclined to go and subscribe, this should be a painless way to know when the latest Kersey and Taylor podcast is up.
So I welcome you all to subscribe.
I would actually encourage people to go through that archive.
There are some fantastic episodes where you will hear the type of political commentary, social commentary that regrettably is absent from the Republican National Headquarters in Washington, D.C.
That is absent from the Heritage Foundation, that is absent from all of the non-profits that promise to conserve the values of the country but sadly don't want to conserve the founding population.
I'll have to point out that for the time being, the back podcasts are not in chronological order.
It was not possible to do them that way, but each has a description.
So you can page through them and see which ones seem interesting.
But certainly for forthcoming ones, please subscribe and you will be on your way.
Looks like we're running out of time, and I don't think we are going to get to some of our listener questions.
We keep running out of time before we do that.
We've had some very, very interesting ones, and so do not be discouraged.
Please do continue to send us these questions that you have, and we will get around to them.
And so, thanks so much for listening.
It's always been a pleasure.
And as always, it's been a packed week for news of relevance for people like us.
So for Jared Taylor, this has been Paul Kersey.
Our podcast time is up.
