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 indefatigable and indispensable co-host on this program.
I'd like to start off with a few apologies, not by us, mind you.
We almost never have anything to apologize for.
But there was an apology by none other than news personality Tom Brokaw.
Apparently he'd been on Meet the Press last Sunday and he said something that should be absolutely taken for granted.
He pointed out that Hispanics should work harder to assimilate.
And then I should go on to quote him word for word.
He said, they should not be just codified in their communities, but make sure that all their kids are learning to speak English.
And that they feel comfortable in the communities.
And that's going to take outreach on both sides, frankly.
In other words, he's sort of blaming them, but he's saying it's sort of our fault, too, because we have to get involved in outreach.
They should make an effort, but so should we.
We should be friendlier to them.
Let me ask you a question, Mr. Taylor.
Where do you come down on that?
A lot of people say, oh, we've got to make English the official language.
increasingly don't have a problem with the balkanization of the country.
No, frankly, I want them to remain as alien as possible.
Exactly.
Yes, let them speak their languages, let them worship their religions, let them be as strange and as outlandish as possible.
No, I want a white person to walk into the neighborhoods and feel completely out of place.
But This is something that the mainstream should think is just fine.
Let them assimilate.
Let them work a little bit harder to assimilate.
But then, the sky fell on Tom Brokaw.
And he then later tweeted that very same day.
It didn't take long.
It didn't take long.
And he said, quote, I feel terrible that a part of my comments on Hispanics offended some members of that proud culture.
I wonder why he didn't say that vibrant culture.
And then he added in a later tweet, he was continuing to grovel.
In effect, he's saying assimilation doesn't matter.
stereotypes and the great enduring American tradition of diversity is to be
celebrated and cherished. In effect he's saying assimilation doesn't matter. He
agrees with us. Let them be as alien as possible.
It's fascinating to think that a generation of Americans grew up watching Peter Jennings and Tom Brokaw.
That was the only people they got their news from, Mr. Taylor.
I can, a lot younger, but I remember at night I'd be visiting grandparents and they'd have it on.
They religiously watched because they thought that Tom Brokaw and Peter Jennings were these That's right.
That was back in the days when people actually trusted the media and Tom Brokaw was a voice to be trusted.
He was.
I believe he was the NBC main broadcaster of NBC's Nightly News and of course now basically we're The fact that he had to apologize that very same day.
The outrage mob on social media was astounding to see.
And again, he has no place.
His views have no place in this new America that our friend Ms.
Cortez from the Bronx, I think, embodies so nicely.
Well, to say that their kids should be learning English and that they feel comfortable in their communities.
Now, as he says, their communities have got to adjust too.
Wow, but no, that's no good.
So, I will let you handle the second apology of the week that we happened to pick up.
Well, I'm sure there were many, many more, but these were two that just happened to make the news.
I guess this is a wonderful theme here.
We've got a Duke University professor named Megan Neely.
She was forced to step, or she has stepped down from her position as the Director of Graduate Studies after an email An email that she sent out to Duke graduate students once again went viral online and what did that email state?
Please, please, please keep these unintended consequences in mind when you choose to speak in Chinese in the building.
I have no idea how hard it has been and still is for you to come to the U.S.
and have to learn in a non-native language.
As such, I have the utmost respect for what you are doing That being said, I encourage you to commit to using English 100% of the time when you're in Hawk or in any other professional setting.
Hawk is apparently one of the names of one of their buildings.
It is.
It's a beautiful building.
Beautiful building.
That's actually one of the nicest campuses in the country.
It's beautiful, yes.
But the point is, here we have, and I was trying to do my best cat lady impression there.
I envision her being one of these childless wine ants to put out a message like this.
Because you would think, Mr. Taylor, that white liberals at this point would understand what they can and can't do when it comes to Well.
Interacting with foreign students.
Apparently, some faculty members had come and complained to her about Chinese people speaking Chinese in a very loud voice in common areas.
And so she's saying she'd also mentioned that.
That was in part of her message as well.
That, you know, she shouldn't be rude.
But the point is to speak English because that's how you're going to get better and that's how you're going to fit in better.
And again, the sky fell upon her.
Here's what she added in the email before we learned her fate.
She writes, Well, the Asian Students Association fired back at Neely for the email and they labeled it, quote, discriminatory and threatening.
English and were being so impolite as to have a conversation that not everyone on
the floor could understand. Well, the Asian Students Association fired back at
Neely for the email and they labeled it, quote, discriminatory and threatening.
Well, what do you think happened to this Professor Megan Neely?
Well, she didn't have to be, she wasn't kicked off the campus entirely, although that's what a lot of people insisted be done.
But she's no longer in charge of graduate studies, and she of course ended up apologizing and dragging herself through the mud, as is always required.
But there you go, simply asking Chinese students To speak English when they're in this professional setting.
She's saying, on your own time, you know, back home, you can do what you like.
And she sounds very respectful to me.
She says, this is your non-native language and I respect you so much, but oh boy.
And the other aspect of it that struck me, I looked at some of the tweets from Asian students, and they are so contemptuous.
They are talking about how.
How could she be so insensitive?
And somebody ran a photograph of her.
She's a blonde woman.
She looks like the perfect good little liberal.
But they said, oh, obviously, all you need to do is take a look at her picture and you realize what kind of insensitive racist person she is.
She's radiating white privilege.
Yes, radiating.
What she's radiating, actually, is just liberal.
These two stories truly indicate that in this post-America setting that we live in, we're really being colonized in a lot of ways.
We're having our speech policed in such a manner where you have, like we said about Tom Brokaw, this is a guy who wrote a book I believe called The Greatest Generation.
Where he tried to create that idea that the men and women who fought in World War II, they're the quote greatest generation.
Of all Americans.
Boy, not the revolutionary generation, no.
But the people who fought in the Pacific, they were quite extraordinary, it's true.
They were.
But I was just so fascinated to think that two generations, three generations after World War II, you have a point now where large parts of the country Have been colonized.
Well, and you can't even say people should assimilate.
Precisely.
Precisely.
Astonishing.
Astonishing.
No, not only are they... It is colonization.
I remember walking through part of Los Angeles once when I was visiting and I was in the Mexican part of town and except for the fact that on the sides of the police cars it said police rather than policia.
You might as well have been in Mexico.
And you still haven't seen the Michael Douglas film from 1993, Falling Down.
I'm going to have to send that to you at some point and ask you to watch that and think that this was made now 26 years ago and to reflect on what the message was of the film and how it holds up today.
Because Sam Huntington actually mentioned that movie in his fantastic book, Who Are We?
Oh, is that right?
He did.
With a certain amount of sympathy, I suppose.
Quite a lot of sympathy.
Yes, yes.
Well, Huntington, he was a proto-white advocate.
In any case, we'll move on to the next, at least, potential apology here.
This has to do with Nike shoes.
Now, some random guy named Saika Noreen, no telling where he's from, but he was complaining about the logo on a pair of Nike shoes.
And apparently, I took a look at the logo and it is a stylized version, a representation of Air Max.
That's one of their trademarks and one of their kinds of shoes.
Well, this guy said that it looks like the Arabic for Allah.
And Mr. Noreen goes on to say, this blasphemous and offensive shoe and all products with the design logo resembling the word Allah must be removed from worldwide sales immediately.
And again, everybody is piling on, this is horrible.
I'm sure, I'm absolutely sure that if there is any resemblance, and I had to squint and shut one eye to see anything resembling a resemblance, it was of course utterly unintentional, but Nike is all very worried.
They're saying, they said in a statement that the logo is what it is, a stylized representation of the brand name, the trademark, and quote, any other perceived meaning or representation is unintentional.
Nike respects all religions and we take concerns of this nature seriously.
This sounds like a preliminary step towards withdrawing the product.
And apparently they ran into the same problem back in 1997.
They had a kind of a flame logo.
one of their shoes but the Council on American Islamic Relations said that
this flame logo that looked like the word Allah in Arabic script and this of
course putting it on shoes I mean as you know for the Arabs shoes are sort of a
dirty part the dirtiest part of one's of clothing and one of the ways that they
show contempt for some is take off a shoe and beat it with it or as we saw
when George W Bush was famously at a shoe in his direction that's right
that's right but now Nike on that occasion actually withdrew that pair of
shoes from production they stopped production I hope it was well I was
gonna say I hope it wasn't making any money for them I suppose I should say I
hope it was making tons of money for them of course this is the company that
has elevated to colon Kaepernick to star status And we talked about that when they made that decision, and we speculated whether or not it would... It briefly hurt their stock price, briefly hurt their sales, but it seems to have all bounced back.
The memories of Americans, even good Americans, good white Americans, who think making Colin Kaepernick their spokesman It's a terrible thing.
I don't think Nike has actually done their fourth quarter reporting yet for the year.
I think it comes up in the next couple weeks.
It'll be interesting to see how their fourth quarter went, because that would have been the quarter that would have been impacted the most by the decision for Americans to boycott or people to buy in support of Kaepernick.
Well, I'd seen some sort of preliminary reports on their sales, according to which there was just a little bit of a dip, but we'll see.
We'll see.
And then moving on to another story.
This was not very pleasant news.
And this is a report from the Pew Research Center, according to which the percentage of the electorate In the last 20 years, the white electorate is down 10%.
It's gone from 76.4% to 66.7%.
In 2020, we're just going to be two-thirds of the electorate.
At the same time, of course, everybody else is increasing.
In the last 20 years, the electorate, the white electorate, is down 10%.
It's gone from 76.4% to 66.7%.
In 2020, we're just gonna be two-thirds of the electorate.
At the same time, of course, everybody else is increasing.
Hispanics, they will be up to 13.3%.
And for the first time, for the first presidential election, they will have outstripped blacks.
Correct.
Blacks will be 12.5 percent.
Now what this means, if you add them all together, in 2020 there will be 32 million Hispanic voters and 30 million black voters.
That's more than the number of people total who voted for Donald Trump last time around.
Now, this is the electorate, and only about half of the electorate actually votes.
But what we're seeing is a remarkable transformation of the electorate that reflects the transformation of the American demography.
And to me, the idiocy of the Republicans who just can't see this coming.
Everybody that ever writes about this says, watch out, Republicans!
Watch out, Republicans!
Everybody's telling them!
But of course, they are the last people, despite the fact that every other group, and we'll talk about this later in this next, you're going to tell us later about the State of the Union Address and who's going to reply.
Every other group is just wrapping themselves in race, but the Republicans dare not.
And they're just going to go the way of the dodo if they can't figure it out.
But these are really sobering figures about how the electorate is changing and how politics are going to change along with it.
Well, the GOP is nationally irrelevant if it weren't for Donald Trump.
You think back to how Mitt Romney was basically given the opportunity to, after the 2010 when the Republicans steamrolled in with all this energy, with the Tea Party movement, which turned out to be just an absolute embarrassment in terms of who came to power.
Outside of maybe Rand Paul.
Rand Paul still, you know, Kentucky's demographics are at a point where that's going to be a safe seat for as long as Rand Paul wants to be senator.
But, again, You've mentioned this before.
There's this gentleman you've spoken to.
He's this nationally recognized individual who's basically said whites are going to be voting, what, 80%?
He thinks 80% in 10 years.
80% of whites are going to be voting Republican.
And, you know, after the midterms, when there was a dip in the white vote for Republicans, I asked him, was he still thinking that way?
He said, he sure is.
So we'll see.
As I mentioned in previous podcasts, he's been in professional politics ever since the Clinton years.
So he has made his life doing this stuff.
We'll see.
Well, I actually think he's going to be right because I do believe that 2020 is going to be far more fascinating from a racial perspective than even 2016 and we saw glimpses of what 2018 was going to be and that brings us to our next individual who's already stated in a post-mortem of her opportunity to become the governor of Georgia and how I stated
Numerous times throughout the 2018 year in the lead up to this race for the Georgia governorship, she came along two years, four years too early.
And I'm talking about Stacey Abrams, who was defeated oh so narrowly by Brian Kemp.
Of course, Georgia's demographics have changed from 73% white in 1990 to about 53% white today.
Of course, the white vote in Georgia, it's close to 85% for the GOP.
So, it's astounding when you think about that's what it takes for the GOP to even hold on in a state where the electorate is, I'm sorry, where the percentage of the population is just 53% white.
Well, because President Trump has a State of the Union coming up.
The Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has decided that Stacey Abrams is a safe candidate or a safe individual to deliver the Democrats' rebuttal next Tuesday on February 5th, I believe.
I find it astonishing.
A failed candidate.
See, I just... I'll disagree to that and I'll get to my point here.
So, Schumer said that she, quote, Of course, I actually agree with that and I think that the Republicans can start winning if they go after voting rights and they start to look at the, like we've seen a lot of these states where Pennsylvania just admitted there were 11,000 non-citizens who voted.
Texas.
Audit the voting rules.
That's what has to be done by these states.
Well, Texas, there were tens of thousands of non-citizens who were clearly voting.
Correct.
I think you'd find the same thing in Nevada and Arizona and California, which would impact, of course, the census and the amount of House of Representatives seats that these states get.
Yes, yes.
We're going to have a piece, a very interesting piece, coming out in American Renaissance by a guy who's an immigration attorney.
And believe it, he's on our side.
A very strange profession for somebody who's on our side, because most of the time he spends his time trying to get people who get them into the country.
Correct.
But he says the number of non-citizens who will say quite casually, they've registered to vote and they voted.
He says it's just his own sample, but if that's anything representative, there are just hordes of them out there.
But in any case, I interrupted you.
So Stacey Abrams, before we move on to some great analysis by an individual a lot of us are familiar with if you read UNZ.com, Stacey Abrams is a safe choice.
The Democrats, the leadership cannot be seen as throwing their hat into what's going to be a very contentious 2020 primary for the Democrat nomination for president.
So Stacey Abrams is someone who came oh so close to rebuking Donald Trump.
Because here was a candidate in Brian Kemp who Trump personally endorsed, as opposed to the Lieutenant Governor, his name escapes me, Chris Cagle, was the gentleman who Brian Kemp beat in the primary.
I actually believe Chris Cagle would have probably won by five points.
Brian Kemp was a more contentious candidate.
Chris Cagle was cooler.
He had a lot of the business community, and I think he would have spoken to the whites in suburban Atlanta, in metro Atlanta, who were turned off by some of Brian Kemp's goofy ideology.
He was a bit goofy, wasn't he?
Yeah, and I think that that's kind of where the GOP has to start going for these more slick candidates who do embrace some of the more racial, implicit racial positions of President Trump.
Well, our friend, and forgive me, I always mispronounce the second part of his name,
Audacious...
Epigone, or Epigony, I think it's an Epigon.
Epigon, okay.
I think it's a woman, actually.
I'm not...
I believe this is a woman.
I will not say whether or not...
Well, maybe I'm wrong.
Well, I will not say either way, but I do enjoy this individual's writing and their analysis.
It's quite fantastic, and they write for unz.com.
Well, here's what he or she said, regardless of their sex.
This person wrote, In many ways, Stacey Abrams is the Democrat Donald Trump.
To attack Trump is to attack forgotten America.
To attack Abrams is to attack the people of color champion.
To attack the people of color champion is to be a white supremacist.
And to be a white supremacist terrifies Republicans and to surrender more than anything else.
That is why Democrats will win for the foreseeable future.
Because Republicans refuse to think in terms of race.
Audacious would continue by writing, By taking the party mantle in the State of the Union response, Abrams will be casting a circle of protection on Democrats across the country.
Republican attacks against Democrats will be more easily recast as attacks on people of color than ever before.
The only way for the GOP to counter the pro- POC party will be to become the pro-white party.
The Bernie Sanders style of colorblind progressivism doesn't stand a chance.
Now, I agree with Audacious here.
This individual follows what I've done.
They listen religiously to this podcast.
And we had some correspondence where this person said, you're right.
Stacey Abrams is the future of the Democratic Party.
I believe that she's going to run for Senate in Georgia in 2020.
Go up against Johnny Isakson.
He'll win, but the point is, Stacey Abrams is... I mean, Mr. Taylor, we spoke about this, and I wrote about this for you, for VDARE, and kept making this point.
She lost by less than a percentage point.
And her position was, we are going to sandblast the Confederate Memorial off of Stone Mountain.
That's right.
She's the lady who burned the Georgia State flag because it had the battle flag and part of its insignia.
I mean, people don't understand what the Democrats are starting to, how excited they are.
They understand.
And she mentioned, like I said, in that post-mortem interview that she did, she said, hey, the demographics are changing in Georgia.
Well, and she really quite almost explicitly said she's not going to bother to court the white vote.
Well, she did say that, but that was during the election.
She said, I'm not worried about rural Georgia.
Screw these white people in North Georgia and South Georgia.
They're not going to support me.
I don't care about them.
I go fishing where the fish are.
It almost worked.
In that post-mortem interview, basically she said, hey look, we know the demographics are changing.
It's not a race against time for us.
No.
We're racing with time.
Oh boy, are they.
And I think that people need to understand that the reason why Stacey Abrams was selected, she's being courted by Kamala Harris to run for Senate, or she's been told, we'll give you a seat if I become president, if I'm the nominee in my cabinet.
I wouldn't go to the point of imagining that level of horse trading.
But to me, the idea that Chuck Schumer is already recognizing, this is the future of my party.
That's very significant.
His seat is probably pretty safe.
But he's saying to all the white men out there, Watch out.
Watch out.
This is what's coming.
This is the official voice of our party.
You just said something fascinating.
Maybe we can talk Hood into doing this.
Seeing what Democrats are up for Senate in 2020, and looking at the percentage of non-whites in those states, and realizing that you're going to start seeing our friend Cortez, they're going to start agitating to replace these stale white males.
And it doesn't matter if they're Jewish.
It doesn't matter at all.
In the eyes of the rising tide of color, hey, This white guy's got to get out of the way.
We'll see.
I suspect he's probably pretty safe.
But you know, many, many of the mighty have fallen, and not in a general election, though.
Correct, correct.
That's where, in some respects, they're most vulnerable.
Exactly, in these primaries.
And I think that that is something that we need to start really looking forward to.
Because if you believe in accelerationism, like we said earlier, do we really want these people to assimilate?
No.
No, we don't.
Well, I think that the next thing we should talk about is yet another example of where these politics are going and why.
And we would only be speaking of a person that, again, if you go to youtube.com and type in Ameren Podcast, you can go ahead and subscribe, be notified immediately when these podcasts go up, Mr. Taylor.
You can also go back and listen to the archives, because at some point, future historians, after we've won and they want to go back and figure out, well, what happened?
What turned the tide?
People are going to say, wow, this Kersey character He was saying that Kamala Harris was going to be the candidate that the Democrats nominated to be their candidate for president in 2020.
In 2016!
And as early as late 2016.
And guess what?
She started her presidential campaign with a rally in her hometown of Oakland, California.
And she said, quote, we're here because the American dream and our American democracy are under attack And on the line like never before, and she said of Donald Trump, quote, undermining our democratic institutions, end quote.
Now, this journalist, basically a stenographer for Kamala Harris.
Well, I'm sure she got it right.
Yes, I'm sure those are exactly the very words.
She wrote about this, or the writer of this piece wrote about near the front of the line was a woman, 25-year-old Evelyn Servin, kindergarten teacher, wore a sweatshirt with a printed photo of Harris, and she was quoted as saying, It means so much for my students every day for them to see someone in high office who looks like them.
I have a lot of confidence in her.
And of course, if she's a kindergarten teacher in Oakland, I can only imagine that... Oakland's about, what, 25% white?
I guess they're... Oakland is heavily black.
I don't know what the percentages are, but I would bet dollars to donuts.
Actually, it's about 27% black, 25% white, and about 24% Hispanic.
27% black, 25% white, and about 24% Hispanic.
It is not as black as you think.
So.
Okay, okay.
You're the numbers man.
I keep track of it, but obviously there were, I think, estimates were 20,000 people showed up for this kickoff event.
It was the main story on Drudge.
Well, you know, it could be that this person is something else.
I mean, because after all, when you look at Kamala Harris, you don't immediately think Nigeria.
I mean, what is she?
Her father was Jamaican, her mother was Indian, and she does not look obviously, obviously black.
No, she does not at all.
If you told me that she was from South India, I'd believe you.
So who knows?
If you told me that she was a...
A white woman with a tan?
I might even believe you.
I wanted to see if you'd go that far.
No, not that far.
But someone who did take it that far, people wore shirts to this campaign event, Mr. Taylor, with slogans like, make my president black again.
Yeah, that's what I find intriguing.
Black is a very flexible definition, I guess.
But I think that's part of the significance of starting it in her hometown of Oakland.
That's not where she first won office.
That's not really where she grew up.
That's where she was born.
But Oakland has this sort of folksy, revolutionary, we're with it, this is part of the people attitude.
And as you say, she got 20,000 people to show up at this thing.
But I thought another very amusing aspect here was a woman by the name of Armani Rosiles, sounds Hispanic to me, who waited four and a half hours in line for the rally.
And while she was waiting, she passed the time by reading one of your favorite books.
Yes, hidden figures!
It's astonishing that this story was actually published because this journalist was able to throw in so many wonderful tropes.
And the fact that they were actually able to work in hidden figures, that they walked down this line and saw somebody reading hidden figures and thought, you know what, that's a great anecdote.
Gotta mention that, gotta mention that.
Boy, we're just all in this together against the white man, aren't we?
But, moving, moving clear across the country from Oakland to Portland, Maine.
Portland, Maine.
Now, there have been some stories about this city lately that I thought were worth mentioning.
And the fact is, it has been swamped with people from Africa.
People from Africa who are showing up who want to live in Portland, Maine.
Not exactly their kind of temperate environment, I would think, but they come for a very specific reason.
And that is because there are so many benefits they found in Portland, Maine, that they can't find elsewhere.
There are people from Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and they, four such families, every day, show up at Portland's family shelter.
I'm sorry, that's every week they show up.
Four families, who knows how many people that is, they just keep pouring in.
And one example is a 47-year-old Angolan who said that he and his family, and that's his wife and four children, so that's six of them all together, left Angola in August.
They flew to Cuba, and that was the beginning of a two-month journey, spending more than 13,000 miles from Cuba to Central America to Mexico, All the way to Portland, Maine.
And they had a very clear idea of where they wanted to go, because Portland... Well, you're going to explain later why Portland is so attractive.
I will explain why Portland.
I will just tell you what the attraction has meant for Portland.
But I should really not leave this Angolan behind, pointing out that he doesn't even speak any English.
He does speak a European language, Portuguese.
Look at your foreign America.
Ah, well, yes, yes.
That and a dollar will get you a cup of coffee.
But the city's emergency shelter for homeless families.
Families are now filling all the overflow spaces.
They're sleeping on floor mats in a converted gymnasium and a cafeteria.
And because of all this, the city has had to add staff and use funds set aside to change these spaces every day because they have to continue to use them as a gymnasium and as a dining room.
So every night they set up these sleeping areas and every morning they have to convert them back into a gymnasium and a cafeteria.
and the people who sleep in these overflow areas.
They can't stay there during the day because they're used for something else.
They spend their time in warming shelters.
Yes, I'm sure they're very happy there, and eating in soup kitchens.
Furthermore, this has been another result of this emergency influx of African asylum seekers.
There are not enough volunteer lawyers to keep up with the swelling caseload.
What this means is that some of these wonderful asylum seekers have had to turn to other Africans in the community for advice.
Well, it turns out the other Africans in the community, some of them, turn out to be real grifters.
They charge all sorts of huge sums to help them fill out the forms and often provide bad legal advice.
Well, this gives you an idea of what sort of people we're dealing with.
But, come one, come all, and there are alleged to be approximately 3,000 asylum seekers in Maine, and the vast majority have come to the Portland area.
And, Mr. Kersey, tell us why.
Well, I'm going to tell you why, but I want to ask you, Mr. Taylor, and I want to ask you, dear listener, to ponder this question for a second.
How white do you think Portland, Maine is?
Well, I would assume it is pretty heavily white.
I would assume that it's at least 80% white?
Maybe 85% white?
90% white?
How white?
The state of Maine is 95% white.
That sounds about right.
90% white?
How white?
The state of Maine is 95% white.
That sounds about right.
Portland currently is 84% white.
About 8% black.
And of course, I would imagine that a lot of those blacks are Somalis.
Because Maine, like Minnesota, is one of those states that, well, it was hideously white.
It was painfully white.
That's right.
And it had to absorb some of the racial diversity that it had so... its entire history failed to.
It's so sad what's happening to these states.
At one point, the real magnet for welfare was Lewiston.
People would shop all around to get on the internet and find out which states pay the most, which cities pay the most, which have the most homeless shelters, and they all trooped off to Lewiston.
Now Portland has gone them even better.
And why Portland?
It's simple.
Unlike refugees who come to the United States with federal settlement funds and support, asylum seekers are completely on their own when it comes to finding food and housing, as well as any legal assistance and other services required.
They're not allowed to work for at least six months while waiting for these cases to be decided.
Well, guess what?
Maine is the only state Maine is the only state to have passed a law making non-citizens such as asylum seekers immediately eligible for state and local aid.
Portland is the only city in the country that has gone even a step further and has established its own publicly financed fund to give food, clothing, and shelter to non-citizens who are
not eligible for the state's general assistance program.
That's right.
They've created a special city office to help integrate them into the workforce and community.
I mean, has there ever been a story in human history where a people, a civilization has decided, we're going to just go ahead and turn over the reins of our civilization to another, to an alien population.
You know what?
There doesn't have to be any conquest, any war.
We're just going to go ahead and finance it all.
There you go, with the treasury.
Not only do they walk in over our poorly guarded borders, we pay them once they're here.
This is astonishing.
And as I understand it, they are even considering letting non-citizens vote in municipal elections.
Well, that's one of the main platforms of one of the individuals we just got done speaking about.
Stacey Abrams has gone on record and says it should be up to the municipality whether or not non-citizens can vote and she is for that.
So again, how do we override the votes of these iniquitous white people who refuse to understand that diversity is our greatest strength?
We invite as many non-citizens as possible to nullify their vote at the ballot box.
And I'm sure that as soon as they get the vote, they're going to vote for even larger municipal budgets for their friends and relatives and co-religionists.
Well, if they're like Mayor Ethan Strimling of Portland, I'm afraid the answer is yes.
He said, quote, I'm very comfortable and proud of the rules we have in the city of Portland, which state very clearly we're a welcoming community.
I'm surprised you didn't say, and on the right side of history, in this dark time of American democracy under Donald Trump.
Now, when you first encountered this story, were you surprised this wasn't Portland, Oregon?
Oh, it could have been.
It could have been.
Portland, Oregon.
Portland, Maine.
Hey, they're all the same as far as their mentality is concerned.
Yes.
You know, it's the craziest thing.
These overwhelmingly white communities are always the most delusional.
The ones who are living in a kind of white paradise who think they're suffering from a lack of diversity because they don't know diversity firsthand.
They're the ones who think that they're doing something wrong.
Well, if they want diversity and they're willing to pay for it the way these people are, they're going to get it.
Oh, they're going to get good and hard.
You know, Portland's demographics, obviously it's a much larger city, so there are far more whites in Portland, Oregon than there are in Portland, Maine.
I think it's about 76% white.
But to finish up this conversation about the asylum seekers who are arriving in Portland with no resources, who report to the shelter upon arrival, many now are coming to this city with temporary visas.
who originally came with temporary visas that are obviously expired so now they're in the country
illegally. And they also are hoping to move with larger numbers looking for handouts from
these white people who've decided to vote. The word's out.
The word's out.
The honeypot is in Portland, Maine.
There are a lot of hands from all across the world.
They're going to try and stretch in to get a taste of that honey.
And to finish up, the City Council there in Portland has allocated $200,000 to the fund for the current fiscal year, which began back in July of 2018.
Now, just to show you how many hands are in that honeypot, Mr. Taylor and dear listeners, nearly half of that money was used up in the first three months.
So you're talking about In October, you're talking about close to $100,000 is already gone.
So the spending is continuing at an unprecedented rate because there are a Infinite number.
Well, it's not an infinite number, but seemingly an infinite number of non-whites who would love nothing more than to live off of the Eloi, the white Eloi taxpayer.
But Mayor Ethan Strimling, as you pointed out, feels very comfortable and proud of all this.
Well, you know, there's an interesting lesson here.
And I think the lesson is, we do have a certain amount of federalism in the United States.
We do have states, I mean the state of Maine said that they can get assistance.
And people go to Maine.
And the city of Portland says, we're going to go you want better.
We're going to have a city fund to feed you and house you and clothe you.
And that works.
Incentives work.
Now, what is terrible about this is, although I'm a great fan of federalism, these local incentives can only go one way.
They can make a place more inviting, but they can't make it less inviting than the feds say.
The feds can park people anywhere they like.
The locals have practically no say in the matter.
The locals can decide how much money they want to spend, how much welfare they want to give, but if the feds say, okay, here are 5,000 Somalis, we think they'll make lovely neighbors for you and lovely playmates for your children.
You gotta take them.
Yep.
So, it would be, see, I'm all for what Portland is doing.
You go ahead and you do what you think is generous, and you will pay for it in the end, and you will eventually change your tune.
But what I wish is that there was similar local autonomy elsewhere to say to the feds, nope, we don't want any of them.
Well of course we've seen that in many places across the country where citizens band together to try and stop the erection of a mosque.
Or we saw that with the state of Georgia and Arizona with their incredible immigration bills that were gutted by the Supreme Court.
Arizona at least was completely gutted.
I can't remember what happened to Georgia's.
Yes, the courts are almost always saying, no, this is a federal matter, you can't mess with this.
A federal matter?
Yeah, you get 5,000 Somalis in your neighborhood and that's considered a federal matter, not a local matter.
Well, these people in Portland are clearly saying it is a local matter.
We like it, we want it, and we want more of it.
Well, God bless them.
But as I say, there should be a town, a city, a county that says, we don't want any of them.
And they should have that right too.
Well, if they were to do that, MSNBC and CNN would basically...
camp out in that mayor's backyard and the city council's backyard, and they would not leave until they defeated the will of those people.
Well, I think more and more people are growing some backbone, but maybe that's just fantasy.
The news is just so one-sided.
Here's another example of the joys of diversity from our cousins across the pond in Britain.
And it has to do with Fiona Onasanya.
She is a labor MP and she's originally from Nigeria.
Well, she was caught speeding in July of 2017, but she did not want another speeding ticket on her record because that would have had dire consequences.
She claimed it was her brother who was behind the wheel.
And she continued to lie and lie and lie about this, and she was finally, it was revealed that it was all a lie, and she's now guilty of perverting the course of justice.
Now, interestingly enough, since she is a lawyer and a member of parliament, Ms. Onasanya's lawyer argued that because she's a lawyer
and a member of parliament, prison time would be overly harsh and, quote, she will no
longer be able to work in either of her chosen professions. Well, you know, this is the kind
of thing that if the lawyer had said, well, in her home country of Nigeria, this happens all the
time.
It's cultural this and cultural that.
But he didn't think of making an argument like that.
No, he didn't.
No, he just said, she's an MP, so she shouldn't have to do time.
The judge, God bless him, said if she wasn't an MP or wasn't in position of responsibility, she would go inside.
It's not one law for those in a position of power and another for those who are not.
So, she has been sentenced to do time.
Now, this is also a curious aspect about this.
Member of Parliament Ona Sanya, when she was convicted, she said she was, quote, in good biblical company with Joseph, Moses, and Daniel.
Daniel, who were all found guilty by the courts of their day.
And now this is even better.
And she went on to say, Christ, Was accused and convicted by the courts of his day.
And yet, this was not the end, but rather the beginning of the next chapter of his story.
Well, the next chapter of his story, he rose again from the dead.
Yes.
I kind of wonder, well, we'll see.
It's been three days.
He hasn't risen from the dead yet.
But this is going to be the first lady member of parliament in all of British history ever to go to jail.
And the first MP in 30 years to go to jail.
Well, labor, interestingly enough.
She was, of course, a labor MP.
They've really drawn the line here.
They said she should act honorably and resign, but she's refused to resign, which means that she will continue to collect her MP salary while in jail.
Now, she could be subject to a recall petition by the voters in her district, but she's going to spend a couple of months in the big house while she continues to cash her checks.
You know, Peter Brimlow says that Those who were the architects of what is present-day England should be punished rather severely.
And you think about World War II and that great hypothetical.
If you could show the British what the country would look like in 2019 and this Member of Parliament, what she said here and what she represents.
How would those British have acted?
Would they have acted differently in World War II?
It's just so astonishing that this kind of stuff happens so frequently because in our country there's an equivalent.
There's actually an equivalent of this story.
Yes, but the point that you make, if the people of the time could look forward into the future, the argument I make is that 1964, when Congress voted to change our immigration laws, if it were possible to convince them that in just 70 years whites were going to become a minority, Can you imagine that Congress would have voted that change?
I think not.
People just don't realize what they are setting in motion.
But anyway, yes, to return back to the United States and the equivalent... Well, real quick, I remember the conversation back in 2003.
I was over at a friend's house.
We were both back from college for the summer and we were talking about immigration and I got into this long-winded... I guess I had been impacted by reading Death of the West by Pat Buchanan and I was talking about what was going to happen as As whites became a minority in the United States, and his parents both pointed out, hey, we're not going to be around then.
We're not going to be around then.
And it's like, God, what if the founders, the framers of our Constitution, which unfortunately, as we've talked about, the Naturalization Act of 1790, they made it quite clear in that declaration that race was at the centerpiece of the country's
character. They understood their posterity. That's what mattered to them. And I just
think so few white Americans of all socioeconomic backgrounds at this point even think
about race at all, regrettably.
It's all forced on them.
What you have described as this utter sense of irresponsibility towards the future, it reminds me of a New Yorker cartoon that I saw years ago.
There's a fellow sitting in the office of a bank lending officer.
And he's saying, well, quite frankly, I was convinced that by the time the loan was due, we would all be blown to bits.
Well, no, and that's a joke, but the idea that somehow, no it doesn't make any difference, we'll all be dead by the time we're a minority.
These are people, but they had children, did they not?
They should think about the future.
They have contempt for the future, they're short-sighted, and I think that's a typical boomer mentality.
At least there are a few exceptions.
There are a number of exceptions, so no need to cast aspersions at the boomers.
Well, I'm not proud of my generation.
But yes, tell us about the U.S.U.
What is her name?
Malina Abdullah.
Malina Abdullah.
She's a California state professor who happens to also lead the Los Angeles chapter of Black Lives Matter.
She has eight criminal counts against her.
Those charges stem from Abdullah's behavior at LA, the Los Angeles Police Department, commission meetings, which have basically become ground zero for being interrupted by this police abolitionist movement, which is affiliated with the Black Lives Matter chapter in Los Angeles.
The acronym is BLMLA, which of course she's spearheading.
She's 46 years old and she's receiving pro bono legal counsel.
From an assortment of progressive lawyers led by Carl E. Douglas and he of course is a protege of the late Johnny Cochran who was so instrumental in making sure that O.J.
Simpson was found not guilty by a jury of his peers.
He's a member of the National Lawyers Guild.
The National Lawyers Guild and the American Civil Liberties Union are also part of Abdullah's legal Comrade.
The squad.
She's got an army of the left on her side.
She sure does.
But what's she been up to, this woman?
Well, the charges include one count each of battery on a public officer, resisting arrest, refusing to disperse, and interfering or obstructing a public business establishment.
Three counts of unlawfully disturbing and breaking up an assembly and meeting, And two counts of unlawfully and intentionally interfering with the lawful business of the L.A.
Police Department Commission.
Now this, of course, stems from an event where the prosecutors of the Los Angeles Attorney's Office affirm that 17 police officers are prepared to testify that Abdullah's tactics have gone far beyond free speech, peaceful protest, and are crossing the boundary into obstruction and intimidating LAPD commissioners.
And what I just said, that's what she has, all these charges.
Those are the eight charges.
You know you think about L.A.
and that's a city where the racial transformation California and L.A.
in the past hundred years The racial transformation of that state and that region are so profound.
Oh, yes.
Oh, yes.
I mean, you spoke of that one memory when you were watching War of the Worlds.
Yes.
And the 1950s version.
Very vivid.
Beautiful film.
Beautiful film.
And at the end of the film, they're praying in a Catholic church, and it's all white faces.
Right in downtown Los Angeles.
And the scenes on the sidewalks, all white people.
All white people.
Astonishing.
But yeah, no, she refused to leave the podium during the public comment period after her allotted time had elapsed.
Swore at people.
I don't give a... I guess I should... This is a children's program.
We're in a PG this time.
Yes, yes, yes.
I don't give a about getting arrested.
Of course, you know, this is typical.
You know, after her pre-trial hearing last week, Ms.
Abdullah and her lawyer, Mr. Douglas, addressed activists and other supporters who had packed the courtroom in a sign of solidarity.
She goes on to say, they're killing our people and they are criminalizing us for having the audacity to push back.
She had a megaphone.
She takes a megaphone to her pre-trial hearings.
What kind of backward world do they think we live in?
Then she says, she called on the crowd to march to LAPD headquarters right nearby where a police commission meeting was underway.
Fill up the room, she says.
Scare the... and okay, for family purposes, I will leave the word out.
Scare the blank out of them.
And then, lo and behold, at her behest, her supporters are going to disrupt the meeting, which was adjourned and moved to a closed session because they appeared to threaten the LAPD Commission President, Steve Soboroff.
Good grief.
This is anarcho-tyranny, you know?
It's beyond anarcho-tyranny.
Police need to go ahead and do what they did in Baltimore after the Freddie Gray riots and after Mayor Sheila Dixon, I think that was her name at the time.
Dixon-Lee?
Dixon-Lee, yeah.
Sheila Dixon-Lee, who gave them space to destroy.
Go ahead and just say, you know what?
There's a Dunkin' Donuts, there's a Krispy Kreme, There's an IHOP.
We're going to go ahead and relax and sit in here.
The city is yours.
You believe this, that's fine.
This needs to happen in cities where a number of these, obviously she doesn't have any power, but she has very powerful institutions protecting her right to do this and harass police.
The idea that these black people are living in constant terror of the police, this is so laughable.
She walks right into the LAPD commission and Pushes people.
Refuses to do what they're told.
What she's told.
Intimidating people.
Getting in their faces.
She actually did push some of these people.
Disrupting their meetings.
And she claims to be terrified of police brutality.
It's astonishing.
It's about time.
Clearly she's got a pattern of behaving this way.
It's about time the police arrested this woman.
And the only people that police are even doing these type of Gestapo tactics to are a white guy named Roger Stone when they show up at his house.
I mean, you think that, in my opinion, I actually wish the police would go out there and instead
of having the expletive scared out of them, that they would go to these areas where they
know all the gang members are because in most of these big cities, they have gang databases.
They know where the bad dudes are.
They could easily go in there with the technology that exists and they could scare the heck
out of these gangs.
And in a week, you could actually go in and you could arrest most of these people and
you could have some semblance of law and order again.
But don't you realize they're so busy just driving around looking for random innocent black people to kill?
They don't have time to do anything like that, don't you know?
Gosh, you know, they'd have to completely change their pattern of behavior.
Looking for guilty black people?
Guilty girls?
Come on!
That is the standard operating procedure of police according to Miss Abdullah.
Police are told every day when they go out on their patrol, go shake down some innocent blacks.
How many blacks have you killed today?
Not enough.
Boy, but anyway, let's move on to Transparency International.
They've come out with their latest ranking of all the least corrupt countries.
And as usual, at the top of the heap are white and a few Asian countries.
In the 19 top countries, in terms of being transparent, no corruption at all, 17 of them are white, 17 of the top, and two are Asian.
And just to give you an idea, Denmark is number one.
Then New Zealand.
Finland.
At number three is Singapore.
Not bad, Singapore.
Then Sweden, Switzerland, Norway, Netherlands, Canada, Luxembourg, Germany, UK, believe it or not, Australia, Austria, then Hong Kong, another Asian fits in.
Then we have Iceland, Belgium, Estonia, Ireland, and then, after we get up to number 20, you end up with Japan.
Now, you're beginning to wonder, Where's the United States?
Where's the United States?
Well, it turns out it's number 22.
After France.
After France.
In any case, I don't know just how detailed and accurate these things are, but I think it's probably a pretty good recognition of where you never have to grease somebody's palm, whether the police are probably not going to be bought off, And as it turns out, number three, interestingly enough, is the United Arab Emirates, just after the United States.
And then comes Uruguay, number 23, which, as you noted, is even whiter than the United States.
All of those nations are all whiter than the United States that we mentioned.
It's funny.
Also, this transparency international, there's an even There's a really clear pattern here that if you were a tourist and you wanted to visit any of these nations that has great governmental transparency, you can also drink the water in those countries.
And to me, I think that is the ultimate basis of intelligence.
I'm not one of these IQ guys, that's all I want to talk about.
Basically, it comes down to this.
Can you go to that country and drink the water?
If you can't, then you know what?
We need to make sure that people there can't immigrate to our country.
How hard is that?
Well, that would be pretty good.
Yes, that's a good standard.
That's a good standard.
But then if we jump to the bottom of the heap, there were 180 countries.
Now you can see what I'm looking at.
I'll go ahead and list them.
We'll go to the bottom.
We'll go to the bottom 10.
We have a country that the United States currently occupies, and that would be Iraq.
And then a country that the United States soon could be occupying, that comes in at 168, Venezuela.
You're working your way to the bottom.
I'm working my way to the bottom.
So Iraq is 168, Venezuela is 168 as well.
Burundi, Libya, Afghanistan, the Equatorial Guinea.
Guinea Bissau, Sudan, North Korea, Yemen, South Sudan, Syria comes in at 178 and of course at 180 a country that the United States happens to have 1% of the population currently Living in.
Is it only 1%?
It's only 1% that has immigrated to our country.
But they're working on making it greater.
Yes, and I'm talking about Somalia.
Somalia, you know, you think, gosh, I just got done reading this book Blackhawk Down.
I saw the movie Blackhawk Down came out in 2002.
You know what?
We need to, we need to go ahead and get as many of these people into our country as possible.
We sure do.
They're lovely people.
They're wonderful people and as they are proving wherever they go, wherever they go.
So, yes, that's it for Transparency International.
They're doing their good work and, you know, they're not all that politically correct.
They seem to see patterns and they don't fear to tell us which way the data pile up.
Now, I think we should close here with a comment from one of our readers.
And we were talking about Rashida Tlaib, who is the first Muslim woman to be a member of Congress.
Well, she's the first of two.
First of two.
There was a Somali, no less.
So we now have two Muslim women in Congress.
And we had mentioned on one of our podcasts that she had taken her oath of office on the Jefferson Quran.
And she was going along with the usual Keith Ellison line about how this shows how we've all been multi-culti and we've been tolerant of Muslims ever since the beginning.
Not so.
Because as another listener pointed out, Jefferson had a Quran so as to better understand the enemy.
Correct.
The people who were attacking and enslaving U.S.
citizens who were floating through the Mediterranean Sea.
Tlaib did not use a Jefferson Koran because, as she explained, she did not want to uplift anyone else.
Correct.
She said that she wanted to use her own Koran, and that's what she did.
So, I don't know if she changed her mind because somebody whispered to her the facts about what Jefferson really felt about Islam and the Koran, but she ended up changing her mind.
And I'm afraid, once again, we have failed to leave sufficient time To a very important question about how you rear children in these deep, dark, and evil times.
You know, maybe the next program we should just start with that question.
I think we should.
Because this is really, I think, one of the essential questions that parents have to consider.
And we'd also love to hear feedback from you, the listener.
If there are topics you'd like us to talk about, maybe book suggestions, movie suggestions, anything you'd like us to Discuss on a future edition of Renaissance Radio.
Email those questions or suggestions to sbpdl1 at gmail.com.
Once again that email is sbpdl1 at gmail.com or at the contact us tab at amran.com.
Hopefully next week we can actually have you talk about the upcoming conference.
