Time Text
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to episode number 165 of Radio Renaissance.
As we barrel into the new year 2020, I hope it's been as good for you all as it has been for me and for my indispensable co-host PK.
Good morning, good afternoon, good evening to wherever you are listening to us across this beautiful globe of ours.
Happy 2020.
I believe last week was our first episode of 2020.
However, we hope that you're having a fantastic new year and wherever you are, get ready, get cozy, get comfy because we're going to bring to you 165, episode 165 of Renaissance Radio this after, this evening.
Or morning, or whenever it is you're listening.
Correct!
Yes, that's the great thing.
It is universal time.
We are in universal coordinated time.
And we're going to start with a great article from City Journal.
City Journal is the publication of the Manhattan Institute, which has the wisdom to have hired Heather MacDonald, who I consider to be a national treasure.
This is not by Heather MacDonald, but it is an equally hard-hitting piece On crime in New York City.
And we've discussed similar initiatives in other parts of the United States, but New York State is preparing to roll out sweeping criminal justice reforms.
The new rules will mean no bail and will remove judicial discretion for a remarkably wide array of charges.
No one will be charged bail for a misdemeanor, and no one can be held on bail regardless of his criminal history, gang affiliation, or his evident disposition to commit more crimes.
A guy can stand there in court and say, you let me out, Your Honor.
I'm going to do more crime.
That cannot be a reason to charge him bail.
And the astonishing thing is misdemeanors in New York can include such things as assault in the third degree causing physical injury to another person by means of a deadly weapon or a dangerous instrument.
That sounds like aggravated assault to me.
It does.
And that sounds like pure felony.
But that is a mere misdemeanor.
And you don't pay bail.
You can walk free from that.
Here's another one.
Reckless endangerment in the first degree when evincing a depraved indifference to human life.
That is a New York... Yes, yes.
Believe it or not, that's a mere misdemeanor.
You can walk free.
No bail.
Likewise, someone who recklessly engages in conduct which creates a grave risk of death to another person.
A mere misdemeanor.
No bail.
And of course, this was all to come into effect on the New Year, but judges and prosecutors started limbering up the looser rules, and they have been working way into this, and some of the examples that we have here go back as long as two weeks.
Two weeks ago, Tiffany Harris of Brooklyn, she is one of our melanin-enhanced fellow citizens, she slapped three Jewish women in the face, Yelling antisemitic slurs of the kind that cannot be repeated on the radio.
Well then she was arraigned on a Saturday, released without bail, and was arrested for assaulting someone else just two days later.
So this is what happens when you release these absolute committed violent types.
No bail, no nothing.
And then there was another case in which on a Saturday, a fellow named Stephen Haynes, this is a Brooklyn man who was just lying lounging around on the sidewalk.
And a policeman came up to him and said, look, you got to move along here.
And this guy hopped up, threw the policeman to the ground, jumped on top of him, started pounding him, beating him.
And this guy, he was obviously charged with a number of crimes, assault, but he too was released by a judge and back on the street.
You can beat up a policeman.
And what they do is say, we hope to see you in court someday.
And off he goes.
And then there's another fellow, a Rockland County resident by the name of Jorge Flores Villalba, a fellow without a driver's license.
Oh!
Yes, he killed a pedestrian on Christmas Eve and fled the scene.
Now, apparently this isn't a misdemeanor either, because he was released on bail on Christmas Day after having killed somebody on Christmas Eve.
I'd say that was a nice Christmas present from the judge, a nice Christmas present from the state legislature.
What is this?
This just seems quite astonishing to me.
Now, because criminals are not posting bail, and because the only way that you can expect them to show up in court is by saying, pretty please, Bill de Blasio has got other ideas.
You know how he's going to get them to show up in court?
How is he going to get them to show up in court?
He has introduced a plan to offer such things as gift cards or tickets to baseball games if criminals actually show up in court when they're supposed to.
Gift cards to Amazon, Target, Walmart, Nordstrom.
Beats me.
Probably the local strip club.
I don't know.
But this is what's going to get them to come into court.
Now, you know, years ago, I remember I was conscious of this, oh, maybe 25, 30 years ago, when I was first looking into some of these problems.
There were grants made all around the country to give people in the ghetto, more melanin-enhanced neighbors of ours, say 50 bucks if they actually went to their dental appointment.
Or give them, give children, you know, 25 bucks if they handed in their homework assignments.
Yes, pay them to do the sorts of things that we're expected to do ordinarily, but actually rewarding criminals with gift cards to show up for the court dates?
What kind of astonishing topsy-turvy incentive system is this guy thinking of?
Well, haven't we talked before about some cities, I believe there's one in California, where they're trying to pay people not to kill one another?
That's right.
That's right.
I think it was Stockton.
It's Stockton or Richmond, California.
It wasn't Richmond.
It was probably Stockton.
Yes, it's got a black mayor, and he's got a high-powered black activist wife.
Yes.
And if they don't kill each other, then they get... I guess it's not just anybody.
You have to be designated a potential killer.
You do.
And then if you don't kill, then what is it, 500 bucks?
It's a form of universal basic income.
It's that graduated step.
You're right.
But, you know, back to New York after the Mansi attack.
Mansi is about, I guess, about 15 miles north of New York City, the entirely 100% Orthodox Jewish city.
I remember, I think it was about the last, one of the days of Hanukkah, they were just about to light the Hanukkah candles and a black guy marched in with a machete and carved up five people.
You remember that?
I do remember that.
That exciting Hanukkah celebration.
Well, like, of course, all this recent anti-Semitic violence in New York, this guy was an African American, but guess what or whom Mayor de Blasio blamed for the crime?
Probably the same people that he said the date that the blankie Hebrews opened fire on the kosher store.
They set up the Nationalist White Supremacist Task Force, correct?
It wasn't the same day, but yes.
In that same vicinity.
Well, he's blaming President Trump.
Oh, Trump.
Yes, yes, yes.
When a black crazy man carves people up when they're lighting Hanukkah candles, you've got to blame President Trump because he's created an atmosphere of anti-Semitism.
And while at the same time, and this is another little tidbit from the wonderful article from the City Journal put out by the Manhattan Institute, in the subway, and we've discussed this many times, fare beating is no longer a crime.
So thugs and hooligans and malfactors and miscreants of all kinds just waltz on board the trains and raise hell and misbehave.
Imagine if you will, you've been this white guy who's paid his fare for 40 years and you're getting ready to retire.
Do you decide, you know what, I'm gonna I'm going to stick it to the man today.
I've paid my dues.
I've paid this consistently and constantly.
I'm always by the book.
And they've just passed this bill because all these wonderful people of color, they're getting in trouble for not paying their fares, jumping over.
I'm going to do that today because I know that it won't reflect poorly on me.
It won't be a felony.
And then we don't have to show up for court.
Maybe I'll get tickets to the ball game.
Maybe I'll get a gift card to McDonald's or something from this.
Yes, yes.
The incentives are, as I say, absolutely topsy-turvy.
Well, because with all of this fare-beating, these people are not criminals, and they are raising hell on the subway system, Governor Cuomo wants to hire another 500 cops to patrol the subway system.
Well, guess what?
He has been met by fierce resistance from the community and from a number of elected officials who say that would be, guess what?
Racist!
Oh, you got it!
I think that's the word you're looking for.
What a smart boy you are.
Go to the head of the class.
Yes, hiring 500 new clops would be racist.
So, as we move down the coastline, let's take a stop in the big, bad, beautiful city of Atlanta.
Well, there's a couple things about Atlanta I do want to throw out there.
I did a piece over at UNZ.com that pointed out that in Atlanta, Their white police chief has decided to institute a policy of no longer doing police chases.
They say that they're dangerous.
They put the lives of innocent civilians driving around, walking around the city at stake.
Basically, it's a license to steal and then jump in a car and drive off.
Gosh, that means I rob a bank or I kill several people on the sidewalk.
As soon as I'm in my car, I'm safe.
Presumably so.
Presumably so.
We'll get this.
Good to know.
We're going to talk about a fella down there in Georgia.
Guy by the name of Deshaun Garrison.
Deshaun Garrison.
Now you're talking about the concert release of Violent Repeat Offenders is ongoing now in New York.
We know that in California they're doing all sorts of criminal justice reform.
That's one of President Trump's signature pieces of legislation, the First Step Act.
You know, instead of reform, they should say criminal justice destruction or dismantlement is what it boils down to.
Precisely.
Yes.
Reform.
Reform.
All in the name of reform.
Well, you know, Georgia is known as the empire state as well.
This story is unsettling.
You have to wonder how many other types of Dashaun Garrison type stories are there happening in our communities across the country.
According to the Atlanta Police Department, Dashaun Garrison has been arrested a dozen times, including for armed robbery.
Even though he is only 17 years old.
Only 17.
Throughout his criminal career, he's spent barely any time in jail.
As one of the local Atlanta Affiliates reports, he was most recently arrested earlier in 2019 on charges of theft and involvement in a carjacking.
Now, if he had done this in 2020, he would have been fine.
He could have simply gotten away.
The police probably would have followed him.
He's not even 17?
Not even 17.
An early bloomer.
not even 17. Not even 17. An early bloomer. Yeah. So, arrested for like I said theft and
involvement in a carjacking. He was released despite his record, criminal record.
As part of his release, he was forced to wear an ankle monitor.
But those monitors fail to deter and incapacitate criminals.
We know you've got a monitor, but what do you do about it?
Why aren't you in jail?
Well, one unnamed woman allegedly played the price when, according to the Fulton County
Police, Garrison attacked her just three days
after he had the monitor put on his leg.
This is back in May of 2019 while she was jogging in broad daylight.
The unnamed mother of two said this, quote, he was wearing an ankle monitor when he attacked me.
I don't know how many crimes this kid has to commit before they actually keep him in jail, unquote.
According to the Atlanta General Constitution, the assault only stopped because of a good Samaritan who intervened and held down Dashaun Garrison until police came.
He was charged with rape, aggravated assault by strangulation, battery that caused substantial physical harm, and interference with government property.
Police, at the time, they were perplexed that it took something like this to finally hold him in jail.
Interference with government property?
Was the jogger a federal employee?
Anyway.
You know, who knows?
That's one of the things that police sometimes will tack on.
They'll plea down.
I'm sure that if he had some marijuana they would have pled all the way down to have him have a couple ounces.
So now is this guy in the pokey or not?
Well, that's the thing.
The woman is yet another victim of the broken criminal justice system because, get this, Even after he was arrested for rape and aggravated assault, Fulton County Superior Judge Rachel Cross agreed to reinstate his bail at just $50,000.
Oh, well, he's not going to come up with that.
So I think he's in the big house.
Well, no.
He's in the middle of something.
He's wearing an ankle monitor.
He's actually out.
He did make bail.
What?
He made bail?
So, yeah.
And this is at a time when repeat offenders are causing this spike in crime all throughout Atlanta.
Just like a lot of the other major cities across the country.
One police zone which includes Midtown.
Now, if you don't know much about Atlanta, I guess, I think I've read about Midtown.
That's kind of a trendy area.
It's actually a heavily gentrifying gay community, gay area.
They've experienced an 11% increase in robberies and a 36% increase in thefts and police are actually blaming it on repeat offenders cycling in and out of jail.
Just like our, just like, just like, I'm not going to say friend or gentleman because he's neither of those.
Just like this, just like this urban terrorist Deshawn Garrison.
And just like Tiffany Harris in Brooklyn, you know?
That's right.
You attack people and say the magic words, no bail, and out you go.
That's right.
So basically what we're seeing across the country is this de-policing which is mandated by officials who are elected in these democrat cities, largely black-run cities where whites are a Increasing minority.
Although, fascinating enough, Atlanta is a city where at some point there's going to be the Great Replacement series on amren.com.
I promise you that.
Atlanta is one of only two cities that's actually seen an increase in its white population.
You know, can you imagine how demoralizing it is to be a police officer in these cities?
I couldn't imagine it.
How?
You lock these people, well, you don't lock them up, you collar them, you cuff them, you take them before the judge, and the next day, they're out on the street again.
Committing maybe the same crimes over and over again.
Wouldn't you just want to hang up your hat?
Turn in your gun?
Imagine you're in Atlanta and you're a cop.
You're sitting in your car and you hear there's a burglary ongoing in Buckhead at one of the nice malls.
And then all of a sudden they say, oh, they're already in a car.
Don't worry about it.
Whatever language they use to say, you know, whatever number for the crime.
And then they say, you know what?
Hey, sorry, they're in a car.
You can't go after them.
That's new directive.
That's new order.
Well, maybe they can track them by helicopter.
Who knows?
Well, you know, the pendulum will swing back, I feel sure.
You get story after story of repeat criminals repeatedly victimizing folks.
Surely, these things self-correct to some degree.
I mean, the capacity of our rulers to delude themselves seems infinite.
So maybe my hopes are misplaced.
But there is a different story entirely.
An analysis conducted by the Center for Immigration Studies, which once again, I promote their research.
They are very, very solid outfit.
And I know PK agrees with me.
They have found that in 2018, There were no fewer than 300,000 babies born in the United States, children of illegal aliens.
What was that year again?
Just every year.
Every year.
2018, 2019.
Every year, about 300,000.
2018, 2019.
Every year, about 300,000.
Pretty steady rate.
And it was right before the election in 2018 that President Trump floated out the idea of an executive
order on what again?
Birthright citizenship.
We haven't heard much of that, have we, in 2019?
You know, there was a little mumbling about it a year or so ago, and then the mumbling stopped and nothing happened.
Well, 300,000 U.S.
citizens were born of illegal aliens.
Now, in addition to that, another 72,000 We're born to foreign tourists, foreign visa workers, foreign students, people at least who are in the country legally.
I find it quite fascinating that there are three times as many born to illegals.
I suppose that's because many of them come deliberately for that purpose.
But you have these Chinese birth tourist types and they're paying princely sums to get put up in fancy Santa Monica hotels.
Or fancy condos while they have their babies.
But about 72,000 were here legally.
300,000 here illegally.
Now, this total about 400,000.
That is more anchor babies born than births in every one of the 50 states except California and Texas.
That's quite a crop of anchor babies.
And as you know, and as our listeners no doubt know, the U.S.
Supreme Court has never really explicitly ruled whether or not the 14th Amendment applies to children of illegal immigrants.
I suspect it doesn't.
That's certainly not what they had in mind.
But all President Trump has to do, as you noted, is to issue an executive order saying, No mas.
And it would, you know, he's done a lot of good things on immigration, which we'll talk about, and it's unfortunately the courts that handcuff the executive branch from really doing anything.
Well, the thing is he could try, and then it would go before the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court has never ruled on this.
I think there's a good chance the Supreme Court would see straight, but who knows?
But he hasn't even tried, and that's something he could do with no, but practically without moving a muscle.
But anyway, I guess he's a busy man.
Now, there was a New York Times article just last week and the headline was...
Only three NFL head coaches are black?
It's embarrassing.
Embarrassing?
Well, only 25% of the players are white.
Is that embarrassing?
Yeah, it's about 27% are white.
Why isn't that embarrassing?
Zero of the cornerbacks that are starting are white.
There's only a couple white running backs.
Of course, the best running back, Christian McCaffrey, is a white guy.
But see, all this lack of whites, that's never embarrassing.
But only three NFL head coaches are black.
Well, you see, the number's been dropping.
There have been more in the past.
And the fact is, does anyone, even at the New York Times, Believe for a moment that if there were blackhead coaches who could win games, they wouldn't get hired?
They'd be hired in a heartbeat.
In fact, there was one coach, I know you don't watch football, but there was one coach Marvin Lewis for the Cincinnati Bengals.
He consistently got the Bengals into the playoffs, but he could never win.
And he held his job because every year, invariably, they'd make the playoffs.
And then finally, they had a couple years of trouble where they didn't make the playoffs.
But because he had had that that success before they kept him on longer than they
should have.
And I believe, I think a lot of our listeners who follow sports, there aren't that many
of you, but I'm sure you'll agree with me, he was kept on because he was a black coach
who had success.
Yes.
He's one of those coaches who is routinely up for, because of the Rooney rule, which
we'll talk about.
Yes.
Well, let's not talk about that.
You don't want to talk about that?
No, I don't want to talk about that.
Even I know about the Rooney Rule.
I suspect all of our listeners, unless they live in, I don't know, Estonia or maybe in Italy, probably know about the Rooney Rule.
In any case, well, since we mentioned it, the idea is if they're hiring, what is it, at a particular coaching level or front office job?
No, it's head coach.
Every head coach vacancy, you have to interview A black candidate.
I thought it was other positions, not just head coach.
I think they're front office positions.
They've expanded the Rooney Rule.
Oh yeah.
Yeah, so you actually have to interview someone.
Well, the fact is... Okay.
It's like all of these mythical black lesbian computer programmers that are suffering wicked discrimination in Silicon Valley.
Yes, all these black coaches that could be winning NFL games, and they're just being cold-shouldered, getting the back of the hand because they're black.
Well, here's a quote for you.
We're celebrating the 100th anniversary of the NFL, yet we have only three head coaches of color.
Says Rod Graves, a former NFL general manager and league executive, who now runs the Fritz Pollard Alliance, which promotes diversity in football.
Well, the fact is, they're among the 32 teams, by the way, so it's just under 10%.
Of course, blacks, what, 13% of the population?
Not really out of kilter in terms of population percentage.
There are two black defensive coordinators, but 10 defensive coordinators.
I mean, if there was just a systematic discrimination against blacks, wouldn't there be hardly any at all?
But in any case, there are 10.
Of the 32 teams, 10 have a black defensive coordinator.
That's a pretty important job.
Yeah, that's a very important job.
Because that's a stepping stone to eventually, when you have success, you'll be interviewed That's right.
Now, you probably know all about this, but I've learned of something called the Bill Bidwell Coaching Fellowship.
It's named after a late team owner, and it is a fellowship that pays former players who are from minority groups.
No white people need to apply, minority groups, to coach for up to two years.
And this is something that about a dozen teams are doing.
In other words, I guess they're not good enough to be hired on their own.
So there's some sort of fellowship that pays their salary so the team doesn't have to pay their salary.
Where this money comes from, I do not know.
Did you know about this?
There's something called the Bill Walsh Minority Coaching Fellowship.
It's been around for 29 years.
29 years!
They've been doing this for 30 years, PK!
30 years!
And they're still being slapped about for not having enough blacks.
This Walsh Fellowship annually provides a chance for more than 100 selected minority applicants to work with NFL coaching staff during the offseason, minicamp, and training camp practices.
And there's former players, high school and college coaches, Not good enough.
Nope.
Not good enough.
And so they've started this Bill Bidwell coaching fellowship.
The point is, the teams are doing absolutely everything possible to improve the pipeline and everything else, but no, it's embarrassing.
I won't waste much more time talking about the paucity of black coaches at the national football level, but at the elite collegiate level, I'm talking about your top jobs, there are virtually no blacks right now.
They've had some high-profile positions where they've floundered.
They've had coaches that they thought were gonna be the next big thing.
A guy named Charlie Strong, he actually had a white wife, so a lot of people thought that he was being passed over for some of the bigger jobs in the Southeast because he had a white wife.
They thought that there was that lingering residual racism, that atomistic idea.
But he keeps getting good jobs.
I think he went from Texas to somewhere in Florida.
He just can't win.
And it comes down to this.
If you win, you're going to keep your job.
How hard is that to understand?
This seems so simple to me.
These people so badly want to win.
The owners, the people who live in this city, everybody wants to win.
And somehow they're turning their backs on these wonderful, talented guys who would give them the Super Bowl just out of pure, unadulterated, unregenerate racism.
No, it's hard to believe.
So, let us move on to yet a different story.
Former mayor of New York City, Mr. Bloomberg.
Yeah, you know, Mike Bloomberg is someone I think we're going to talk a lot about in 2020, Mr. Taylor.
I hope not, but I'm afraid you're right.
Wow, and you've already spent $150 million on ads.
Now, I know you live in Virginia.
I, of course, live out West.
I haven't seen many political ads yet, so I do apologize to any of our listeners who are being bombarded with ads in places like Iowa and New Hampshire.
Do you know how much money Bloomberg has spent already?
Did you say $150,000,000?
$155,000,000 of his own money, which is a drop in the bucket, by the way.
Isn't he worth about $50,000,000,000?
Bingo.
Yeah, well he could spend $50,000,000,000 and still be in good shape.
Exactly.
It's jaw-dropping what this guy is going to be able to do, and he is building an impressive infrastructure.
But he's also tipping his hat as to what we can expect.
Yes.
So what happened is he was tipping his hand.
Tipping his hand.
Yes, it's a poker phrase.
So he wants to allow investors and employers to hire the best workers from around the world.
So basically the American job market is the world.
Exactly.
Instead of Americans.
He said this.
He told the San Diego Union Tribune on January 5th This country needs more immigrants and we should be out looking for immigrants.
For those who need an oboe player for sympathy, we want the best one.
We need a striker for a soccer team.
We want to get the best one.
We want a farm worker.
We want to get the best one.
A computer programmer.
We want to get the best one.
So we should be out looking for more immigrants.
Now, this reporter he was speaking to from the CNDU Union Tribune didn't try and get a clarification from former Mayor Bloomberg as to what he would define by BEST, but I think we all know what he means.
And BEST is, what does that mean in your opinion?
I suspect that means for wages that Americans wouldn't accept.
I would imagine that it would all be considered 1099 employment, where laborers wouldn't have to pay W-2 wages, right?
They wouldn't have to pay the health care.
Okay, so anybody can basically... Well, see, that's just the thing.
American workers do not have the entire world as potential employment opportunities.
No, they don't.
But what this guy is saying is, The entire world is the pool which Americans are going to have to compete.
It's a vast labor pool.
It's an untapped labor pool that those holding capital should have access to regardless of their immigration status.
Because there are billions of Americans across the world waiting to step foot on our land.
Well, you know, you follow presidential politics more closely than I do.
What are his chances, really?
I mean, I don't think, I don't really see him as a serious player, despite his billions.
You know, Bernie Sanders is doing quite well in Iowa right now, as is the South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg.
Yes.
We'll see.
He's skipping the first two primaries, and he's put in all of his... That's what I understand.
All of Super Tuesday, is that right?
Yeah, a lot in South Carolina.
I believe he does have a footprint in these states because he does want to have some name recognition.
So he is spending money there, but he does not have any infrastructure in these states.
I saw somewhere that he's got 800 campaign workers in his own headquarters or something?
He's paying $6,000 a month.
To acquire the best talent.
I'm sure he's... Wait, $6,000 a month?
Yeah, for campaign volunteers.
Oh, for volunteers?
Yeah!
For people to come work, to go canvassing, and to create this network.
Well, you know, Super Tuesday, a lot of black voters in the Democratic primaries.
I don't think Mr. Stop and Frisk is going to get very far, but we'll see.
We'll see.
Well, good old, good old Michael Bloomberg.
We'll keep an eye on him.
But at the same time, we're keeping an eye on yet another bogus study.
I believe it was just last episode we talked about this absolutely preposterous study that was published, according to which hate crimes had risen 250% In counties where Trump had had a rally.
This turned out to be complete nonsense, but everybody believed it for a while.
It was one of those lovely just-so stories that liberals love to believe.
Well, here's another story.
This was an investigation that claimed, and it was published this month by a Harvard sociologist in the Journal of Science Advances, And according to this study, police killings of unarmed blacks substantially decrease the birth weight and the gestational age of black infants living nearby.
That's right.
You get these preemie babies if an unarmed black has been killed nearby.
And according to the author, Joshua Legewie, we keep running into people whose names I just absolutely don't know how to pronounce.
He says, this reinforces the intergenerational transmission of disadvantage because low birth weight can bring about cognitive underdevelopment.
Repeat that sentence one more time.
You've got to repeat that.
Okay, what it is, what the idea is, this was an intergenerational disadvantage.
In other words, this is some poor black mother who's living in an area where an unarmed black man is killed, shot by police, then she's going to go into such trauma she's going to give birth to a premature baby who is not going to have the brains he would have had if this baby stayed in the womb the usual nine months.
If there hadn't been this shooting.
If there hadn't been for this shooting.
Unarmed.
Yes.
Now, what he figured is he studied 3.9 million California birth records from 2007 to 2016.
Now, and he could find no ill effect on white or Hispanic babies.
And no ill effect when police killed whites or Hispanics.
And there was no ill effect for police killings of armed blacks.
Only unarmed blacks.
The babies in the womb somehow must have felt that nasty vibe.
And so, what he says is although black babies react negatively to police shootings of black men, they actually react positively to police shootings of non-blacks.
In other words, if a non-black is shot, then they stay in the womb longer, according to this study.
So, you have to conclude that shooting whites would be great for unborn black babies.
I mean, that's what the data says.
Well, this turned out to be complete baloney.
About a week after the study was published, it was retracted.
One of the problems was they had misclassified armed and unarmed suspects.
Oh boy.
They can't tell there's been armed and unarmed.
I guess there are three armed and four armed and unarmed and armed.
In any case, after this was fixed, the differences completely fell to zero.
Now, you know, it's amazing these people actually believe this rubbish.
But the important thing about this was... You don't believe it?
I fear not.
I'm credible in some things, in some things I'm just not.
But the reaction to this New York Universe sociologist Who was unnamed in the sources that I consulted, unfortunately.
He says, this is an important finding and a very intuitive one.
Babies in the womb know the difference between an unarmed black man and an armed black man being shot.
They know!
And then a University of Michigan researcher said that this effect could be related to broader feelings of vigilance by black Americans and, quote, Their need to prove that they are worthy of their humanity because our institutions don't view it that way.
And wombs and unborn babies, they know.
They know.
But so anyway, another completely preposterous, ridiculous, baloney piece of science has been blown out of the water, leaving a considerable amount of egg on many faces.
Well, no, I doubt that.
I don't think anybody is going to retract their praise of this study.
I think they're going to pretend that it's real and whenever they can, they can bring
it back out.
Like we talked about last week.
What was the guy's name?
Ezra Klein, who tweeted out that story that you mentioned regarding Trump violence.
I mean, again, we're not going to talk about it at length, but we have to bring it up because
there is something fascinating that just happened.
Didn't CNN just have to do a settlement?
Oh, yes, yes, yes.
The Cummington boys, Mr. Sandman, they paid an undisclosed amount.
I think they were asked $200 million or something.
$275 million lawsuit.
And now he's got lawsuits against the Washington Post, a number of other outlets, a certain organization in Montgomery.
No, is he filing suit against the SPLC?
That was what his lawyer intimated yesterday.
Well, great.
I do know that he's suing this Indian elder, the guy who was beating the drum.
The Vietnam vet?
Yes, the Vietnam vet.
I'm sure he's got some great assets past the peace pipe.
I don't understand why in the world they'd go after a guy like that.
Maybe just to make him scream, but in any case, You see, that's the thing.
You settle with one defendant, and that fuels the engine.
I don't know how much he got.
I'm sure it wasn't $275 million, but let's just say it was $2 million.
That can buy a lot of lawyer time.
Well, not enough lawyer time, but it buys enough lawyer time to get those other people really feeling dangerous.
Anyway, good for him.
But let's see, moving on to engine country.
You had a story about Oklahoma, did you not?
I want to talk about a positive story.
There's been a lot of stuff out there about if only Trump would have done this when he got brought into office.
He talked about taxing remittances and of course we've discussed the shocking amount of money that's sent abroad.
From those working in the United States who then send money.
I think I read an article in The Economist, Mr. Taylor, recently about these palatial estates Mexicans are able to build in Mexico courtesy of the money that they make in the United States that they send back via Western Union or whatever That's right.
And it's billions, billions, billions.
Tens of billions.
Oh yeah.
With a capital B. Yes, yes.
And that's money that goes out of the country, not spent here.
But anyway, yes.
And Oklahoma, Oklahoma's taxing these, right?
They are!
Oklahoma, to their credit.
Modest.
Fee of 1% on all outgoing wire transfers.
Now, does that mean anything out of the state or anything out of the country?
Anything out of the state.
The fee is a withholding against the state income tax.
The extent that those remitting money pay their state income taxes, the fee is not a tax.
Does that make sense?
If you're going to pay your tax, but if it's going out of the country.
But since most of the transfers are outside of the state tax system, it works as a de facto tax on So there are comparatively few illegal aliens in Oklahoma as there are in places like Texas, Virginia, New York, New Jersey, California, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, but
Were such a fee established nationally, let's say 2%, would bring in more than $3 billion a year to the federal government.
Just 2%?
Just 2%.
Yeah, I remember that was a theory as to how he could get Mexicans, at least those living here, to pay for the wall.
And that's just 2%.
You know, 5%?
Wow.
So yeah, because the Pew Research Center estimated that in 2017, remittances from the United States were $148 billion.
Of course, the Trump administration just isn't doing anything, but the Oklahoma State Tax Commission for the year 2018-2019 shows wire transfer fee receipts of $13,147,000, which is an increase from a total of $12.8 million two years prior.
Well, that's a start.
Kudos to the good people of Oklahoma.
This is something that I think state legislatures across the country could implement.
I say Oklahoma robust.
Well then I believe you had a story about refugees too.
Yeah well this is one we got to talk about because in the first, in the infancy of the Trump presidency he tried to implement the travel ban on I believe it was six countries?
Well, it was going to ban all Muslim countries.
It was known as... Yes, it ended up being six or eight.
I can't remember.
Somalia and Syria and I think Eritrea.
A bunch of places where, you know, we will not use his colorful language, his barnyard language to describe them, but I don't think we miss the people that might have come otherwise.
Well, dear listener, The federal government has brought in nearly 1,400 refugees to our country over the last year from foreign countries listed on President Trump's constitutional travel ban.
Remember, this was upheld.
In 2019, the State Department imported exactly 1,378 refugees from Chad, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Venezuela, and Yemen.
Six of the eight countries on Trump's travel ban list, which also includes North Korea and Libya.
So there's a travel ban, but we're accepting refugees.
Correct.
This indicates a more than 783% increase.
Between 2018 and 2019, of refugees from travel-banned countries arrived in the USA.
What?
We're getting more and more of them?
Well, yeah, because it actually was keeping them out.
There were so few, you have to understand.
Again, we're only talking... I don't want to contextualize this and try and excuse this.
1,378 refugees from travel-banned countries is 1,378.
178 refugees from travel ban countries is 1,378. Too many.
Yes.
But the number was substantially less.
But again, if just one of these guys, you know, what's going on with Iran right now?
It was less than before the travel ban came.
Oh, heavily, yeah.
I thought it would have about 8,000 or something.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, okay.
I guess we should be grateful for even a small reduction.
But the idea of refugees from travel-banned countries, that's just too deep for me.
Yeah, I mean, again, they're working with all these refugee contractors that resettle the refugees for the State Department.
You know, we could list them.
Let's not do it.
But get this.
The federally mandated refugee resettlement program has brought in more than 718,000 refugees to the United States between 2008 and 2018.
About 80,000 a year.
refugees to the United States between 2008 and 2018. About 80,000 a year.
That's a group larger than the population of Wyoming. Well but at least
Mr. Trump is decreasing that number.
Didn't he say it's going to be going down to under 20,000 or so?
Isn't that his plan?
I remember that it was about 100,000 under Obama, and our darling and favorite candidate Hillary was going to raise it to about 200,000.
Yep, yep.
And let me go back and clarify one thing.
So the level of refugee resettlement from travel-banned countries is soaringly high for the past year compared to only 156 refugees from those same countries that were resettled a year prior in 2018.
So some shenanigans going on at the State Department that they're not doing what was constitutionally found to be, the Supreme Court found to be constitutional.
Again, it just shows that A lot of people out there can say, oh, Trump's not doing enough.
He's tried.
They've tried to do things.
The courts, there will be some federal judge that will step in and say one element of his immigration plan, oh, it's unconstitutional.
Well, yeah.
And then there was that great decision you made that there wasn't an executive order whereby localities can say, we don't want refugees.
No settlement, not in our backyard, not in our front yard, not in our side yard, just not anywhere where we are.
But then we have these absolute surprisingly betraying GOP governors.
Well, that's exactly right.
The president gave the states the opportunity to decide.
And get this, a total of 18 Republican governors thus far have approved More refugee resettlement for their states, along with five Democrat governors who governed, quote unquote, a red state that went for Trump in 2016.
Now, I believe you were explaining to me that these are simply the ones who have replied.
Correct.
And we don't yet know of any governor who has said, nope, nope, nope, NIMBY.
No, they're not.
So, I mean, just think about it this way.
We already know refugee resettlement cost the taxpayers roughly $1.8 billion annually.
That was according to a study published by the Federation for American Immigration Reform in 2018.
So, obviously, the less is better for the taxpayer.
Trump thought, hey, these governors are going to say no.
No mas.
Or however you say no in Farsi or Arabic or in Somali.
But, regrettably, that's not happening.
Get this, 18 governors, including most recently the Republican governor of Maryland, have signed on.
And just get this, places like Ohio, Arkansas, Iowa, Massachusetts, Utah, North Dakota, New Hampshire, Arizona, Indiana, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Nebraska, South Dakota, West Virginia, Missouri, Idaho, and Maryland.
Those governors, all Republican of those states that I mentioned, they all said, you know what?
We need better food here.
That governor of Minnesota a few years ago who attacked Native white citizens as B-plus citizens.
It says we have too many B-plus white citizens.
We need more Somalis.
In these other states, they're saying the same thing.
They're like, hey, you know what?
We need some Indian.
We need some more shawarma places here.
We don't have enough.
We need some more Vietnamese food.
We need more students in our schools that don't speak English.
We need more people that never used a light switch in their lives.
A toilet seat.
All that's very, very exciting for the locals.
Ah, dear me.
Well, okay, and we're moving now to Philadelphia.
Were you aware that Philadelphia has a new police chief?
I am aware.
You are aware.
Now, her name is Danielle Outlaw, which is a remarkable name for a police chief, but she is melanin-enhanced.
She is?
She is.
Now, I bring this up because of a January 6th article in the Philadelphia Tribune by a fellow named Michael Cord, who is writing about the new police chief.
And let me quote.
I like and support newly appointed Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw, and it's primarily for two reasons, among several others.
One, she's not a white man.
Two, she's a black woman.
White men, generally, historically, and presently speaking, have been toxic.
If you don't believe me, just consider racism, sexism, and classism.
And in each of these isms, you will clearly see that they were created by, and continue to be promoted by, white men.
This is in the Philadelphia Tribune.
Dripping with invective and hate toward whites.
On the other hand, black women, generally historically and presently speaking, have been curative.
95% of black women voted against the orange racist in the White House.
In other words, sistahs, spelled S-I-S-T-A-Hs, are still trying to cure what ails America.
And so, I'm sure, Danielle Outlaw is riding to the rescue.
Boy, oh boy, oh boy.
Now, this fellow Michael Cord, here's what he says about himself.
And this was published in Philadelphia Magazine.
This guy is not some marginal character.
No, he's not.
This is how he describes himself.
I spend most of my time avenging my enslaved ancestors and defending their descendants.
That's how he serves the justice system as a lawyer.
Then he goes on to say, the best thing about my job is that I can confront racist, thuggish cops without getting shot.
He's bragging about that.
the last time I took a white client was 1997. He's bragging about that. He's admitting to be a bigot.
Well, this is the best of all. He says people would be surprised to know that I don't hate
all white people. Oh, thank you for... Gee, I mean, maybe 95%, 51%? Are there a few he doesn't hate?
Can you imagine anybody getting anywhere in public life in the United States saying,
I don't hate all black people, or I don't hate all Hispanics?
This is incredible.
I don't hate.
And you'd be surprised to hear that he doesn't hate all white people.
I'm shocked, actually.
It's something else about him.
He attended Cheney University for undergraduate school and then he went to Ohio State for law school as he goes to Great Pains Underline on full scholarship.
So these are the kinds of people that we are educating.
No college debt for him.
He sprang into avenging his enslaved ancestors and defending their descendants without having to repay a single dime.
So that's the good news in Philadelphia.
Well, you know, last year we talked about Frank Rizzo's statue that came down.
I'm sure he was someone who was quite excited at the Frank Rizzo statue.
Obviously a statue to a white man who also happened to be a fantastic Police chief who then became a fantastic mayor in the dark old days of Philadelphia when law and order were the name of the game and outlaws were actually put behind bars instead of released by Soros funded district attorneys which Philadelphia has one of the first.
That's right.
Do you recall the... Krashen, I believe.
Krasen.
It begins with a K. That's right.
It might be William Krashen or Krasen.
Yeah, it's one of those races where, you know, usually somebody gets in by spending $10,000, $20,000 on his campaign.
And George Soros drops $800,000, a million, and he can buy the campaign with no trouble at all.
Yeah, he's been doing it all around the country.
But he loves America.
Now moving overseas, or not quite overseas enough, There was an interesting story just the other day because three people who were trying to sneak into the United States in the San Diego sector had climbed the 30-foot steel and bollard wall.
30 feet!
And it was wet, it was raining, and they got stuck at the top because the smugglers had abandoned them.
So there they are, 30 feet up in the air.
It's pretty high.
That's pretty high.
If you've ever climbed like a 10-foot ladder to do yard work, that's actually kind of scary if you don't have someone stabilizing it.
That's right.
30 feet is up there.
Well, I don't know for how long they were there.
But the Border Patrol found them, and what they did was they asked the San Diego Fire Department to come get them down, which the San Diego Fire Department very kindly did.
Now, maybe I just don't have the right perspective on this sort of thing, but on which side of the wall do you think the San Diego Fire Department let them down?
Oh, I've got a suspicion.
On the American side.
Yeah.
Now, why is that?
Why is that?
It seems to me, well, I guess I just don't have the right attitude.
Well, they were booked and at least maybe they'll take their fingerprints so they'll know next time they come sneaking in.
But yes, I thought this was a very exciting story.
This was actually a story put out by ICE itself.
I think they're burnishing their humanitarian credentials here.
They're trying to.
They're rescuing these poor people who are stuck 30 feet up in the air.
Look what we're doing, guys.
Come on.
We are such nice people.
Don't make fun of us.
We love illegal immigrants.
We're just looking out for them.
But so they were booked.
But my question is, they could have just set them down on the other side.
How long is it going to take to get them on the other side?
They're going to go, you know, they're going to say a refugee or whatever it is they like to say.
And then who knows?
Get asylum right away.
They had a chance.
They missed their chance.
But speaking of Mexico, this is quite an exciting story.
Did you know that the official number of missing persons on the missing persons list in Mexico Well, I won't even ask you to guess the number.
No, go ahead, go ahead.
I'll try and guess.
You're going to try to guess?
Okay.
Is that the sentence?
Well, no, no, no.
If you're willing to guess, guess how many people are officially listed as missing in Mexico.
Now, I will tell you some of these, about a thousand of these people, here's a hint, date back to 1964 to 2006.
In that period, there are only a thousand.
But, in 2006, that is the year that former President Felipe Calderon launched the war against the drug cartels.
So, of a certain number, 1,000 are between 1964 and 2006, and yet another number are from 2006 to the present.
So you are the one, if you get your job... You're going to need a big milk carton, I have a feeling, to get all the pictures of the people.
I'm going to go with...
And listeners, you think about this too.
I am saying this.
You formulate that number in your mind.
I'm going with 45,000.
Not too bad, but the real number is 61,637.
So that means 60,000 people have gone missing since 2006.
So that means 60,000 people have gone missing since 2006.
Whereas between 1964 and 2006, 1,000.
That is pretty remarkable.
That is pretty remarkable.
Now, three quarter of the missing people are men.
And I guess, you know, these are folks that just stepped on the shoe of an arco, whatever it is.
And one quarter are women.
This is another interesting fact.
1,124 bodies have been found in 873 hidden graves since December of 2018.
December 2018.
That's not all that long.
No.
And human rights undersecretary, they have an undersecretary for human rights, Alejandro Encinas, described the whole country as, quote, an enormous hidden grave.
Well, we know that from what the Conquistadors encountered when they came and they saw... Those weren't even hidden!
Exactly!
Piles of skulls!
Skulls everywhere!
The person who announced this official number of missing persons, 61637, is the chief of, as you would say, get this, the National Search Commission.
Don't laugh!
I mean, this is really quite tragic.
They have a national search committee.
I mean, you just shake your head in dismay.
I just keep thinking of that line that Ann Coulter uses over and over again on a forum, on an outlet that you're banned from, regrettably, Twitter, when she says, our new country is going to be great.
That's it.
Our new country is going to be great.
When we look south of the border, we see America in 30 years.
It won't be that long until we have to have... what was that title again?
It is called the National Search Commission.
And there's a director and an undersecretary.
I'm sure there is.
Counting these people, trying to find them.
And the whole country is one huge hidden grave.
This is sad.
It is very sad.
I agree.
I mean, again, if we're being serious, we've talked about this.
Mexico is, by and large, a failed state.
And luckily, Trump's threat to put a tariff on that country that shook the
leadership, the elite, into we got to help we got to help these guys to stop this
crisis and it has worked but you have to think there's a lot more that we could
probably do a tit-for-tat to stabilize that country to make it so that they wouldn't
have to have these I mean what I don't know I don't think there's anything we
can do to stabilize it unless it is and I hate to say this a lot of that is fun
is fueled by drug It is.
And people correctly point out that all the drug money eventually comes, almost all of it, comes from the United States.
That's correct.
And so they smuggle this stuff in.
The money gets smuggled back.
So one option is to legalize it.
Well, I should do this, that.
But the war on drugs or the war on traffickers in Mexico has been almost as unsuccessful or you could probably say even more unsuccessful than here in the United States.
Is the solution legalization?
I really, you know, Obviously not.
It's to stop saying a war on drugs and actually war with the cartels.
They're out-gunned, they're out-generaled, they're out-financed by these cartels.
I don't know what the solution is.
But moving on to a different country.
This was a statistic that really shocked me.
You are, of course, familiar with the sex grooming scandals where these Muslim men take advantage... In England, yeah.
Yes, in England.
Yes, exactly right.
They'll take advantage of these girls who are waifs.
Really, some of them are in foster care.
They apply them with alcohol, and then they start taking advantage of them sexually, pass them around like meat.
Well...
In 2018-19 fiscal year, local authorities identified 18,700 suspected victims of sex grooming.
This is nearly 19,000 in just a single year.
In last year, 19,000!
sex grooming. This is nearly 19,000 in just a single year.
In last year, 19,000.
That's up from 3,300 five years ago. Now wouldn't you have thought that all of
the attention this has had, these numbers would be going down?
Well, they're not.
They're not.
Now, this was a statistic with very little analysis going with it, but I was, I was really shocked by this figure.
19,000 in just one year.
And of course, there must be many, many thousands we never hear about.
No, it's a, see that, obviously, you know, we're talking about what's going on in Mexico, What we just discussed, the missing persons, to me what we're talking about right now, that's the type of stomach churning story.
You ask yourself, what has become of...
How can this be?
How can this be?
How are they still getting away with this stuff?
Well, something else they're getting away with and this is about our last story for this episode.
One man was killed and two other seriously injured in a knife attack by an unidentified assailant in the Paris suburb of Villejuif.
Villejuif, interestingly enough, that name literally means Jew Town or Jewville.
Interesting.
And it is possible that the fellow who shouted Allahu Akbar actually targeted people because it is named Villejuif.
In any case, he went on a rampage in a park packed with families and children during the school holidays.
And police opened fire and shot him because they thought he might be wearing a suicide belt.
This is just one of these humdrum day-to-day news stories out of Europe, at least the parts of Europe that have not stood firm like the Visigoth countries and refused to take Muslim immigrants.
And this is the same town, Villejuif, In which, a couple of years ago, police said they foiled an apparent terrorist attack that was to attack some of the churches in Villigrif, because an Algerian suspect was arrested in Paris after he accidentally shot himself in the leg.
And he later said that he was going to shoot up one or two churches.
But I guess his target practice got a little out of control and he shot himself in the leg.
But this is the kind of story that we don't hear of because this is just sort of daily news.
Remember, what was it?
The mayor of London, Mr. Khan.
Sadiq Khan.
Didn't he say that, oh, stabbings, terrorism.
What did he say?
Part and parcel.
Part and parcel of life in the big city.
There you are.
Part and parcel of life in the big city in Paris.
There's a few stabbings here, a few Allahu Akbar's there.
Any case, yes, this is our second podcast of the year.
We hope to have many more for our listeners whom we love and adore.
So, do this.
