Judge Miranda Du Sets Us Straight

Time Text
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and with me is my indispensable, irreplaceable co-host, none other than Paul Kersey.
And it is August 19th, Year of Our Lord 2021, and we will begin with a listener question.
This was addressed to Mr. Kersey, but I will read it as it was posted.
Perhaps you and Mr. Taylor could delve into the ways to invigorate and embrace white identity on an individual or familial level, such as in the realm of art, music, rhetoric, history, etc.
While Coca-Cola keeps pushing us to be less white, we should have practical conversations on how to be more white.
Well, this is a very good question, but it is particularly appropriate for people who have children.
Most of us send our children to public schools.
In doing so, we hand them over to people who want them to be less white.
That is a terrible dilemma that we all face, and so we have to counter that by, in our daily lives, exposing them to classical music, taking them to museums, And avoiding all the newfangled areas where they have the crazy art that's supposed to be the wave of the future, we have to read them, good literature, probably any book for children written before about the 1950s or 60s is probably good.
There are many ways to do this.
And it's probably just as well simply for this question to have occurred to someone.
Anyone who even thinks in these terms will very easily find ways to get around it.
In our own individual lives as adults, of course, it's easy for us to accentuate the white, the European, the Western, It's when we have children that that challenge is the greatest and that's for the reason, that's one of the big reasons why people do homeschooling and I say God bless them.
Not everyone can do that and that makes the challenge much more difficult.
That's another reason why we need white communities.
We need places where if your children go to play in somebody else's house, we know that they will be in an environment that is conducive to their identity and not one that undermines it.
I'd recommend anybody out there with kids, go on Amazon, type in Landmark book series.
These were books that were written in the 1950s and 1960s.
They are what Mr. Taylor just said.
They are a celebration of America as it was.
Such fantastic headlines, such fantastic titles.
I'll just read a couple of them.
The Barbary Pirates by C.S.
Forrester, Ben Franklin of Old Philadelphia, Buffalo Bill's Great Wild West Show, The Building of the First Transcontinental Railroad.
Basically, these are books that celebrate Americans unapologetically.
And when I say celebrating Americans unapologetically, They're celebrating white Americans.
We're not even saying so.
Exactly.
You didn't have to say it at that point.
They're very rare.
They're getting harder and harder to find.
Especially the books that have the intact paper cover still.
Because they were written so long ago.
And they were written for children.
But they're quite fantastic.
Also for people who have boys in particular, but also girls with an inquiring turn of mind, a author that was very, very popular in Britain probably about a hundred years ago, G.A.
Henty.
He wrote stories about history in which young English boys participate in well-known historical events.
They are patriotic Brits.
They are honorable boys.
They are really models to live by, certainly in today's times.
In any case, all of the literature, especially for children of, I say, up to the 50s, 1960s, is probably good, but as far as television is concerned, I think anything that's specifically children's television is likely to be pure poison.
But, yes, merely having asked the question means that you, dear listener, are thinking of solutions, and I salute you.
Now, we must not go without mentioning Afghanistan.
I've made a video about what I think went wrong, and to put it in a nutshell, I think what went wrong in Afghanistan is exactly what's going wrong here.
We thought we could turn people into something they are not.
Just as we tried in Vietnam and Iraq, we tried to turn Afghans into Proto-Americans.
It failed.
Just as we are trying here in the United States to turn Blacks and Hispanics into Proto-White people, and that's failing.
Of course, our rulers, despite the fact that they have failed miserably, they will not learn this lesson.
They will think something else went wrong.
But at the same time, here and there, there have been a few things pointed out.
And here is from an article in The Spectator, a British magazine.
This is a British magazine that's sense enough to point out some of the things that I suspect very few American magazines will.
And this author writes, on Ivy League campuses, students are taught to decry colonialism, But the Ivy League diplomats who sought to remake Afghanistan in Harvard's image were among the most ambitious practitioners of it in world history.
Yes, indeed.
Trying to impose our thinking on them.
And the article goes into simply one aspect of our colonial enterprise.
It says $787 million was spent on gender programs in Afghanistan.
I'm sorry.
787 million dollars on gender.
787 million dollars?
That's right, on them alone.
But that substantially understates the actual total because gender goals were folded into practically every undertaking America made in the country.
Every step you take is in the name of women's rights.
Under the USA's guidance, and I didn't know this, Afghanistan's 2004 constitution set a 27% quota for women in the lower house of parliament.
Were you aware of that?
No, I was not.
That's higher than the actual figure in the United States.
I wonder what Ivy Leaguer put that into their Constitution.
One member of the State Department wrote that in.
I'm sure they're sitting on a board right now with Raytheon or Lockheed Martin and they're drafting up the whiteness study stuff.
Yes, these people have just moved from one high position to another.
This strategy sometimes required having women represent provinces they had never actually set foot in.
Because they just didn't have enough local women.
Remarkably, this experiment in democracy created a government few were willing to fight for, let alone die for.
It goes on to say, police facilities were built with child care rooms for working mothers.
Happens all the time with the police in Afghanistan.
The army set a goal of 10% female participation.
And so even as America built an Afghan army that folded like a house of cards, a police force, its members, and frequently became bandits, it always made sure to meet its gender goals.
What pathetic nonsense.
And according to one USAID observer, the gender ideology included in American aid routinely caused rebellions out in the provinces, directly causing some of the instability we were supposed to be fighting.
We forced this nonsense on them and they don't like it.
And then finally here, to get Afghanistan's parliament to endorse the women's rights measures it wanted, America bribed it.
Bribed the parliament.
And soon bribery became the norm for getting anything done in parliament.
This is the sort of thing that was happening left and right.
In my video, I talk about Bagram Air Base.
It had acres and acres and acres of fast food restaurants.
It had coffee shops.
It had beach volleyball courts where lady soldiers and lady contractors in bikinis could be seen following about.
This was the kind of thing we were imposing on Afghanistan.
It is just, it's insanity start to finish, and we're paying the price, but nobody will be held accountable.
No.
I think that that's one of the really key points here, and I would say if we were going to hold people accountable for one of our crazy wars, it would have been the war against Iraq.
We claimed that they had weapons of mass destruction.
This Haram Hussein guy was a threat to all goodness, truth, and beauty.
He was a threat to the West.
He had to go There was nothing there.
There was nothing there.
This was waging aggressive war, according to the Nuremberg trials, where we hanged Nazis for making war on countries that were not a threat.
If this was waging aggressive war, if there ever was waging aggressive war, that was it.
And to the people who were behind it, they still walk around with their heads held high.
No, it's just, it's thoroughly disgusting.
Well, I look at it this way, Mr. Taylor.
What, what was the incident that created the need for the so-called Iraq War and to invade Afghanistan.
That was 9-11.
Yes.
Did anybody, did anybody pay the consequences of the failure, the catastrophic security failure of what happened on 9-11?
No, and once again, that was one of those situations which they knew.
These guys show up, a bunch of Muslims, buying one-way tickets with cash, no suitcases, but, oh no no, can't ask them any questions because that would be racial profiling.
Even back in those days.
Couldn't ask him questions.
Yeah, the horrific story was the ticket taker at Logan, the Boston airport.
He said he knew, but he felt guilty.
Yes, this can't be right.
What is going on here?
No, no, no, no.
Well, anyway.
And just a nice little, this is, I think, the maraschino cherry on the parfait.
The Taliban spokesman, Zabihullah Mujahid, in his first press conference since the collapse of the Afghan regime, and he was asked if the regime would allow freedom of speech.
His answer was, journalists should ask people at Facebook.
I know you're not on Twitter, but there have been some unbelievably hilarious tweets.
Islamist movement the Taliban is banned from posting on any Facebook owned platform including Instagram and whatsapp
I thought that was perfect these guys have a real sense of humor freedom of speech
Well, we'll worry about that here when you start practicing as it practicing it where you are
This is definitely I know you're on Twitter, but there have been some unbelievably hilarious
Tweets I mean here we are joking about this But they've basically taken a lot of memes that Westerners
have created about what life is not like in the Taliban controlled
Afghanistan after they've after they've deposed the American-backed Afghanistan government
And it's trolling to the nth degree, is what we're seeing.
And I mean, in a lot of ways, this is just a thumbnail.
This is one of the most embarrassing moments.
Obviously, you know, you live through Vietnam.
I mean, what would you compare this to?
Oh, I think that Vietnam is the perfect comparison.
People were appalled.
That iconic photograph, the aircraft, I'm sorry, the helicopter at the top of the embassy and all these people trying to get in.
And this time we have, of course, hundreds and hundreds of Afghans on the runway trying to cling to landing gear of a C-130 as it taxis.
No, this is exactly the same thing.
And the very idea, as part of my video, I included a headline from Forbes And this was something that was published three days before the collapse.
It says, intelligence agencies warn Kabul could collapse in as little as 90 days.
That's right.
Oh, give me a break.
What idiots!
What idiots!
We ought to just fire every last one of them.
What good do they do us?
Are you saying that the Afghanis, they're not at all worried about LGBT flags and the Black Lives Matter flag that have flown at embassies all across the world?
Well, that was it.
You know, that was another thing, you know, just less than two months before the fall.
And Taliban's on the run.
And, you know, the American embassy tweeted out this LGBTQ flag.
And it says, we remind Afghanistan that we back Pride Month.
This is Pride Month.
Get proud all you Afghan homosexuals.
Good lord, what?
And you know, another point I made, and I do urge you all to see this video.
Every time I make a video, I think it's the best I've ever done.
I have to go back a month later and realize, well, maybe I've made some other good ones too.
But in this one, I talk about this huge American embassy that we built.
It cost $800 million.
It's a beast.
Just one embassy.
And 4,000 people working there.
4,000 people trying to turn Afghans into good little Joe Biden Democrats.
That's what they were doing.
Well, I hope.
And of course, we lowered the flag and we buggered off.
I hope the Afghans turn it into the National Museum of American Arrogance and Stupidity.
I think that would be a fitting use for that building today.
In the meantime, Mr. Kersey, as you know, Afghans are headed your way, headed my way, headed your way, wherever you are, into Europe.
They're going to come one come wall.
We're going to get, my guess is, my guess is, when they're all said and done, Including families, because you've got to get their brothers and their sisters and their cousins and their aunts and their uncles, not just the interpreters, whoever it was that actually worked for us, sold their soul to us for the American paycheck dollar.
We could have all their relatives.
My guess is there'll be somewhere between 100 and 150,000 Afghans in the United States by the time this is all over.
But what can we look forward to, Mr. Kersey?
Sorry, I was thinking.
I let that sink in of what you just said.
I think the population of Wyoming is 500,000 people, so why not?
A lot of room out there in Wyoming, a lot of room in Montana.
All these Afghans will fit in just fine.
A lot of room in Georgia.
Brian Kemp has said Georgia will bring in 30,000 Afghanis, and we know the Taliban are so good at blowing up statues.
Perhaps when Stacey Abrams becomes governor, they can engineer the destruction of Stone Mountain.
What I got here is a story from 2017 in the national interest.
It's very important.
It's been making its way around.
It was written by a liberal who worked with refugees for decades.
I'll just read a couple of the choice lines.
The title was, I've worked with refugees for decades.
Europe's Afghan crime wave is mind-boggling.
This is 2017, ladies and gentlemen.
Afghans stand out among the refugees committing crimes in Austria and elsewhere.
Why?
In 2014, when waves of refugees began flooding into Western Europe, I like that word, flooding into Western Europe, Citizens and officials alike responded with generosity and openness.
Exhausted refugees spilled out of trains and buses to be met by crowds bearing gifts of clothing and food and holding up placards that read, welcome refugees.
It's like an army that's been welcomed back, although it's an invading army that's being welcomed.
It's just the cognitive dissonance is just... It's called pathological altruism.
It's a uniquely white man's disease.
Well, the author would go on.
This was a honeymoon that could not last.
Some of the upcoming difficulties had been anticipated.
Newcomers did not speak local languages, might be traumatized, would probably take a long time to find their footing, and had brought their ethnic, religious, and sectarian conflicts with them, causing them to get into battles with each other.
But there was one development that had not been expected, and that was not tolerable.
The large and growing incident of sexual assaults committed by refugees against local women.
These were not of the cultural misunderstanding date rape sort, but were vicious, no preamble attacks on random girls and women, often committed by gangs or packs of young men.
At first, the incidents were downplayed or hushed up.
No one wanted to provide the right wing with fodder for nationalist agitation.
And the hope was that those were isolated instances caused by a small problem group of outliers.
However, as the incidents increased and because many of them took place, in public or because the public became involved either in stopping the attack or in aiding the victim afterwards and because the courts began issuing sentences as the cases came to trial
The matter could no longer be swept under the carpet of political correctness.
Think about that last paragraph.
They couldn't hide it.
We were trying to hide it.
We were doing everything we could.
We were like, no, no, guys, stop.
You can't do that.
And with the official acknowledgement and public reporting, a weird and puzzling footnote emerged.
Most of the assaults were being committed by refugees of one particular nationality, by Afghans.
Actually, Afghans should not even have been a part of the refugee tide, at least not in significant numbers.
It was the Syrians who were expected.
However, Afghanistan, a place of lingering chronic conflict, is no longer on the official refugee roster that's reserved for acute political and military emergencies.
Of course, 2017 was four years ago now.
Far different in 2021.
Stop the press.
Stop the press.
They are priority number one.
The European authorities and the public were sympathetic and could understand why Afghans
wanted to leave a country rife with suicide bombings and empty of opportunity.
But again, Europeans were predisposed to be positive towards Afghan refugees, but it quickly
became obvious that something was wrong, very wrong, with these young Afghan men.
They were committing sex crimes to a much greater extent than other refugees, even from
those that were equally or more backward, just as Islamic and conservative, and arguably
just as misogynistic.
I encourage all readers to go out there, Google National Interest 2017.
The title, once again, I've worked with refugees for decades.
Europe's Afghan crime wave is mind-boggling.
Share this with your family.
Share this with your friends.
Because, like it or not... Share it with your elected representative.
Share it with your mayor, if he's got any power over who comes into his city.
Share it with your governor.
Governors can say, we want Dawn and these swine.
They can do that.
We've talked about this before.
There are three issues that truly could get the Republican Party, not that they deserve it, To take back the House and to take back the Senate and then to immediately impeach Biden and Harris, if Biden, who knows if he's going to make it.
Apparently he's taken this whole crisis pretty hard from what I've been reading, Mr. Taylor.
Just this, basically his, his legacy's been completely destroyed by this, but it basically is, hey, let's talk about COVID and illegal immigration at the border, the collapse of the border, and now no Afghan refugees.
And then you tie that to the most important thing, an immigration moratorium.
Well, as I pointed out in this little video that I made, Afghans have been pouring into Sweden for a long time.
And what does Sweden get in return?
The highest rape rate in all of Europe.
And you remember, of course, that New Year's Eve celebration in the public square in Cologne, Germany, when there were, I can't remember, 400, 500 girls that were all the victims of something called taharush.
Taharush, that's an Arabic word that I learned.
Don't tell me that diversity does not have its benefits.
I learned a word of Arabic.
That's when a bunch of young men surround a girl and grab her and grope her and rape her, if possible, in public.
That's taharush.
So we had all of that.
And it turned out when the word came out, that was leaked from the police department.
The police department in Cologne tried to cover it up.
And when that was discovered, all of these other cities, it all came out.
Oh, this has been going on for years.
So, anyway, here they come.
Here they come.
Ready or not, here they come.
Now, I've got a story about a different kind of blowback from a different kind of failed war, and you will see why in just a moment.
A federal judge in Nevada just, uh, day before yesterday, I believe, ruled that a nearly 70-year-old section of law that makes it a felony to re-enter the U.S.
after being deported is unconstitutional.
Judge Miranda Dew issued an order on Wednesday dismissing a case against Gustavo Arellano Lopez who was indicted last summer for being in the U.S.
despite being deported in 1999 in 2012.
At least three times it seems to me and that should be the charm and out you go but She wrote this.
Because Correa Lopez has established that section 1326, that's a part of the law.
Yes, he established it.
He's a great legal scholar.
He did all the beavering work and figured it out.
He has established that section 1326 was enacted with a discriminatory purpose and that the law has a disparate impact on Latinx persons and the government fails to show that section 1326 would have been enacted absent racial animus The court will grant his motion.
So what's all this mean?
The point is this law was passed in the 1950s, as a matter of fact, but she says it is the Direct Lineal Descendant of the 1926 Act.
Which was the National Quarters Act and that was racist and that was no good.
So Julian Castro, a former Democratic presidential candidate and Secretary of Housing and Urban
Development under Mr. Obama, he tweeted, this law has an incredibly racist history. I doubt the
Biden DOJ will want to defend it in the appellate court.
Remember what this law says. If you are back in the country after you've been deported, that's a
felony. And apparently this law is now unconstitutional according to Judge Du. It makes it a crime
for a person to enter, re-enter, or attempt to enter the U.S.
if he has previously been denied admission, been removed, or deported.
Now, in 2019 fiscal year, 30% of all criminal cases were based on this law.
Out they go.
Are they going to amnesty everybody who was convicted under that?
The order notes that the law has a disparate impact on Latinos.
Can you believe that, Mr. Kersey?
I can't.
No, that can't be true.
No, noting that 87% of the people who apprehended the border in 2010 were of Mexican descent.
Horrors!
The federal government argued that this is a function of geography and Mexico's proximity to the U.S.
rather than discrimination.
Judge Due said she wasn't persuaded.
This is discrimination!
Disparate impact!
No, no, no!
What kind of flight of fancy is this?
She goes on to say, the evidence clearly indicates that the Act of 1929, I believe I said 26 earlier, I beg your pardon listeners, the Act of 1929 was passed during a time when nativism and eugenics were widely accepted, both in the country at large and by Congress, and that these racist theories ultimately fueled the Act's passage.
The federal government's plenary power of immigration does not give it license to enact racially discriminatory statutes in violation of equal protection.
Well, the actual law in question was passed in 1952.
But Dew says that much of the provisions of the earlier 29 Act persisted, and the measure was passed as sort of a lineal descendant, an emotional descendant.
And she pointed to correspondence from the bill's supporters in the early 1950s, including from the deputy attorney general at the time that used, guess what word?
The word was wetback.
That proves it was pure racism.
Pure racism.
So although there's nothing racial about it, and I'm sure this law applies to anybody, white, black, brown, or green, if you've been deported and you come back in, you are subject to penalties.
Sure.
But, and what's more, the section of the law was amended five times in the 1980s and the 1990s.
But oh ho ho, it goes all the way back to 1929.
It's racist.
It has a disparate impact.
It's got to go.
Now, who is Judge Miranda Dew?
Oh, I was going to ask you that question.
Well, inquiring minds want to know.
Well, Miranda Dew, Miranda Dew.
And I said this is a blowback from another failed war.
Well, first of all, she was nominated by President Barack Obama to the United States District Court of Nevada in 2011.
Confirmed by the Senate, she was born in Ca Mau, Vietnam in 1969.
Now, she left to seek asylum in Malaysia along with her family when she was 9 years old, spent nearly a year in a Malaysian refugee camp before she was granted asylum in the United States.
She was sponsored by a family in Winfield, Alabama.
Little did they know, those Winfieldians in Alabama.
So she was 10.
When she came here, more blowback from our absurd policies.
So now we have this Vietnamese lady here in the United States telling us that it's against the law to pass, to criminalize re-entering the United States after you've been deported.
And raising the great state of Alabama.
Yes, what on earth?
This is just incredible.
What a head-spinning thing.
And I believe that it's exactly as Julian Castro says, the Biden administration is not going to say, no, no, no, we can't appeal this decision.
A woman of color wrote this decision.
No, we need to actually consider her for the Supreme Court.
I should say so.
The idea of actually criminalizing people who break our laws repeatedly and come into the United States as illegal immigrants?
No, that'd be horrible.
This article screamed Babylon Bee or The Onion.
I had a hard time believing it.
And then Steve Saylor, in his usual erudite way, he put this beautiful line on a piece he wrote about the same subject.
He wrote, quote, Similarly, because laws against murder have disparate impact on blacks, since blacks make up the majority of murders in the United States, plus the white man who passed the laws against murder were biased against blacks, the criminalization of murder is thus unconstitutional.
Oh, it goes against equal protection of the laws!
Welcome to post-America America.
Why don't we just, you know, white man, white man should just march off the stage of history, find a cliff, jump over it.
Yes, white man, you're just in the way.
Now, here's another great story.
It's about what our foreign policy should be about.
I'm sure you'll be thrilled to know that Secretary of State Blinken had told American diplomats, quote, acknowledge our imperfection when it comes to America's racial injustice.
Well, there is a fellow named Brett Bruin, who was the director of global engagement in the Obama White House.
I can't imagine what global engagement means.
That sounds like exactly what we've been doing in Afghanistan.
Exactly.
Global engagement.
And he's a career American diplomat.
He says our foreign policy should go further and actively work to advocate for racial justice around the world.
Now, he wrote this in an op-ed piece.
He says, it's time that the U.S.
government makes Black Lives Matter an explicit and central part of our foreign policy.
You know, people have pointed out American diplomas is no longer about promoting American interests.
It's about promoting American values.
Values.
Not our interests.
He says examples are the fight for Aboriginal rights in Australia and immigrant rights in France.
So clearly only white-run countries have this problem, you know.
He says equality needs equal time. The department ought to regularly raise the topic during
important meetings, integrate it into our work in other areas, including climate change,
development, even peace talks. Bring it up at every time.
Everything's got to do with racial justice, just like math and music theory and study of
classics. You know, make that part of our diplomacy. Renaming birds. Oh, that's right. That's
right.
We haven't renamed countries for all I know.
The State Department should also organize an annual international conference that brings together both government and non-government leaders to discuss the issue of racial equity.
And, he goes on to say, the American government can use our private sector's experiences to encourage and enable businesses across the planet to engage in expanding opportunities for minority groups.
So we want, I suppose what that means is, we want race preferences everywhere for everybody, if they're minorities, wherever they are.
Now, then he goes, this is just great.
China, Russia, and other adversaries may see the racial reckoning across the country as an opportunity to further weaken our international influence, but it affords us a chance to lead.
What foolishness is this?
We're supposed to be lecturing every country in the world on how it treats its minorities, and that is going to give us a chance to lead?
America can become a champion for the rights of those forced to still endure racial inequality and injustice.
That is a powerful mantle and message to carry forward.
In many ways, it's exactly what is needed to begin the long work of repairing the damage done to our moral standing.
Good Lord!
Here we meddle in countries all around the world.
We try to turn Afghans into good feminist Americans and look what happens.
But this is going, this by preaching to people about all their racial injustice and telling them they got to straighten up, that's going to repair our moral stand.
There are Chinese generals right now laughing.
There are Russian generals right now who have read the history of why the Soviet Union after two years, the catastrophic, the just Horrible war that they tried to fight in Afghanistan when two years after, the Soviet Union just kind of collapsed.
Do you know, by the way, what we actually left behind?
Oh, has somebody counted up the millions of tons of equipment?
How many helicopters?
How many APCs?
What did we leave behind?
Give me the bad news.
You want the bad news?
I will give you the bad news.
I will give you the bad news.
So, 600,000 weapons, 75,000 vehicles, 200 aircraft.
Wait, 75,000 vehicles?
It doesn't say what those vehicles were.
I bet at the very least, at the very least they're Humvees.
Then there'd be APCs, I don't know, tankers, 18 wheelers.
But 200 aircraft, 75,000 vehicles, 600,000 weapons.
This is all going to be now sold throughout the region.
Oh yeah.
I mean, this is, this is one of those moments I remember a friend called and they're like, so are we watching like the collapse of the American empire?
Oh, we are.
But you know, we are going to regain our moral stature by pushing homosexual rights, telling every country in the world they have to put women in combat, they gotta invent 25 gender pronouns, they gotta let their children choose their sex at age 10.
You know, it's bad enough that we have to have the American way of life imposed on us.
Now we're going to impose it on the rest of the world.
If people really want to see the American way of life and what the American empire stands for, all you have to do is go to Monument Avenue in Richmond and see the General Lee statue still stands and yet the graffiti upon it is all Taken from the type of lectures that these statesmen are going around saying, these are our greatest values.
I hate to say it, I hate to say it, but in Afghanistan, part of the way they figure out what the American way of life is to type the letters P-O-R-N into their cell phone.
That'll give them a real eyeful.
They don't much care for it either.
No, nor should they.
Good Lord.
By the way, yes, but this is how we're going to regain our moral stature.
By telling people, ooh, you are racist.
That's going to make us leaders in the world.
What idiots these people are!
Idiots!
Idiots!
In any case, we've got another idiotic plan.
Going into practice in New York City, I understand.
A thousand dollars a month!
My gosh, it's hard to pay attention to what's going on in Afghanistan and these other places when you have such wonderful programs like this being instituted.
Here's the headline.
New York City launching program to pay young criminal offenders $1,000 per month for participation in good behavior.
It's a pilot program.
That's come under fire because it reports to describe a plan to pay young criminal offenders $1,000 each month, a stipend, $12,000 per year for their continued involvement with the program and good behavior.
The months-long try, it's called Advanced Peace Model, it's reaching fruition this month after it was announced back in March.
for the intentions for the program.
The program is being tested through five police precincts, one in each of the New York City bureaus.
Under the pilot, the city will conduct outreach in areas with high levels of gun violence
to identify youth who are at risk for gun violence.
Now I know how they can afford all those bullets and this ammo shortage.
Anyway, yes.
Select individuals are then invited to join the Peacemaker Fellowship,
which pairs mentees with individual neighborhood change agents who mentor them and set tangible goals
like a driver's license or a GED.
It adds, when participants achieve their goals, they receive a monetary stipend.
It's approximately $1,000 per month for continuing fellows in past cities that have incorporated the programs.
Participation will be paid more money for achieving previously established goals.
They can get much higher than $1,000 in terms of the stipend, it sounds like.
Wow.
Wow.
de Blasio said this, this advanced peace model will guarantee a safer and fairer New York
for generations to come.
Now we both looked at the data, we both look at the data that the New York City Police
Department bravely and courageously and heroically put out that breaks down not only the victims
of gun violence, nonfatal and fatal shootings, but also the race of the suspect.
And I believe 97% of gun crime in New York City is committed by POCs, people of color.
Why do you need not apply?
There is no white person that qualifies.
We're just not bad enough, Paul Kersey.
We're just not bad enough.
$1,000 a month to be civilized.
There you go.
Welcome to the Big Apple.
I think we need to pay them $50 every time they brush their teeth.
Maybe $100 every time they make it to a dentist appointment?
Why not?
Why not just $1,000 a day?
Well, you're right, you're right.
That'll really make them good people.
The more the better.
So, moving on to Los Angeles.
Los Angeles might have Larry Elder as its mayor.
Larry Elder, as some of you know, has made a career as a conservative black talk show host, and the LA Times is writing about him.
It says if Larry Elder is elected, life will get harder for black and Latino Californians.
It's the recall, it's the governor.
It's the governor, I beg your pardon.
Did I say mayor?
Yes.
He'd be a good mayor of L.A.
too.
Yeah, gosh, he'd be a good president.
Certainly compared to what we've already got.
The California recall election's Republican frontrunner Larry Elder has built a career as a black radio talk show host who isn't afraid to deny the reality of systemic racism by maligning black people.
He denies the reality.
The problem is the statistics he's shared over the decades to support his views and policy proposals are misleading if not outright false, casting black people as unusually Crime-prone?
Unusually crime-prone?
Fancy that.
In some cases, the bogus data come directly from Jared Taylor, a leading white supremacist elder who has repeatedly cited in his articles and books.
If Elder becomes governor, the state that led the charge against Trumpism could plunge into an alternate universe, reminiscent of the 1990s when California passed a racist three strikes laws.
It applied only to POCs, you know, white people could commit as many crimes as they like, of course, you know, it didn't apply to them.
And the anti-immigrant Prop 187.
Prop 187 meant if you were illegally in the country, you didn't get public benefits.
Sounds fair enough to me, but that was racist too.
Last year, Larry Elder shared a graphic with so-called facts, echoing claims he's made on the air for decades.
He said, blacks kill two times as many whites as whites kill blacks.
That's a so-called fact.
It's backed by data.
It's in fact a fact.
Yes.
It's not a so-called fact.
It's verifiable.
Then, here we go.
Blacks, 13% of pop, commit 50% of murders.
That's a so-called fact, Mr. Kersey.
It's actually higher.
If you actually break it down by sex, because we actually still think biological sex is a fact, it would actually be about 6 commit 52.
That's right.
And furthermore, listen to this.
In an interview with the Times editorial board, Elders cited a study with an unusual finding.
Police are more reluctant, more hesitant to pull the trigger on a black suspect.
The Times just refuses to believe this.
Of course not.
Of course not.
They're all racist!
Of course, they instinctively, they thrill at the prospect of plugging a black man.
Elders' views were shaped by Taylor, who wants a majority white nation.
And wrote a 1999 pamphlet, The Color of Crime, a white supremacist classic.
Let's base strictly on Bureau of Justice Statistics data.
I guess the data are white supremacist.
Elder quoted him repeatedly between 1998 and 2002.
In other words, he hasn't quoted me for, what, 19 years?
Nearly 20 years.
But oh, I'm the albatross that can hang around his neck.
And listen to more of his crimes, more of Larry Elder's crimes.
He told the times he doesn't believe in sanctuary laws or citizenship for dreamers.
He's against in-state tuition, health care, and driver's licenses for the undocumented.
He opposes birthright citizenship.
What a bigot.
He objects to cashless bail and diverting police funds and social programs.
And this must be the absolute worst of all.
He uses the term illegal alien, not the undocumented.
Sounds like a good candidate for governor.
Sounds far better than Arnold Schwarzenegger was as governor of California.
I'd vote for him a hundred times if I could.
Good lord.
But there you go.
He quotes me 20 years ago and I'm an albatross around his neck.
And he, oh my goodness, he talks about illegal aliens.
The warning went out in Chicago just a few days ago, and I will read from CBS News local station Chicago.
They wrote, Chicago police on Monday night were warning anyone walking downtown or in the South
Loop to stay alert after a series of attacks and robberies, and it does not matter if you are alone
or in a group. Police said the youngsters are attacking and stealing from people at all hours.
The assailants are described as being between 14 and 19 years old, both boys and girls. Police did
arrest six suspects, but we're told that there were up to 10 involved in various attacks,
and police fear others may try to do the same thing.
Police advise people to put down their cell phones and be alert and aware of their surroundings.
Now, what's missing in this alert?
Be aware!
They are huge!
Ages 14 through 19.
Are they Danish tourists?
Are they Amish on Rumspringer when they get out to get out in the rest of the world?
Can that be?
Who are these people?
Are they young Japanese tourists?
Good Lord!
Here they got to be on the alert!
They became 14 and 19.
But one little crucial bit of data.
Not relevant!
And totally irrelevant.
Totally irrelevant.
Now, Mr. Kersey, I understand that television has got white guys who are in a terrible crisis.
Speak to me of white guys in a crisis on television.
Yeah, this is a really long article that I do encourage all listeners out there to check out.
It's at The Vulture.
It's written by Katharine Van Aaron Dunk.
The title is TV's White Guys Are In Crisis.
Now, I don't watch television anymore, cut the cord.
I watch movies when we do watch television, but here's the opening paragraph.
This summer, television became preoccupied with the question, what should happen to men?
Not all men.
TV has been inundated with stories about black men, migrant men, trans men, men who struggle to make ends meet by holding down three gig economy micro-jobs.
One conundrum has crept up... I'm sorry.
One conundrum has kept cropping up in various genres and iterations.
The white guys who used to be default protagonists on TV and in American life, all of the beleaguered dads, bad bosses, authoritative Leaders and wildcard mavericks are no longer the main characters.
So what happens to that guy now?
Should he be erased?
Can he be rehabilitated?
His entitlement washed away?
Where is he supposed to go?
Bye-bye, white man.
Or just turn him into some pathetic wimp.
Or maybe a racist, a raving racist, or a pathetic wimp.
Or what else can it be?
What roles are available for white men?
I'll read one more paragraph and then everyone needs to get this.
Series from this summer have found various answers to that question.
Perhaps the white guy has a meltdown, or he leans into his right to take up space.
His right to take up space.
Maybe the best course of action is to plot his demise.
That's right.
In every case, it's less a clear answer and more a thought experiment for an awkward cultural snarl with a vague gesture about how to loosen it slightly.
Although many of these shows include people of color on the directing staff or in the writer's room, they are all created or co-created by white producers, and it's tempting to show their plaintive self-concern at work in them.
After all, none of the shows simply jettison the white guy.
They hold him close.
They observe him, mock him, jab at him mercilessly, even as he becomes a story's central problem rather than its central character.
There he still is in the middle of the narrative.
Whiteness must be Erased but we gotta figure out a way to do it You know not in a way that it's not so obvious that we don't show he has no right to take up space That's ultimately what this article
One of the things that I think is important to go back to that opening question, Mr. Taylor, that we were queried, how do you raise children that respect the heritage, the country, that aren't swimming in this anti-white sea that is continually fed as if the ice caps have all melted and anti-whiteness is just basically pouring over the land?
Turn the TV off.
Turn the TV off.
You know, because... Turn it off.
I haven't had television in my house for 20 years.
I don't even think of that.
Well, you have a TV.
You have a TV, but you just have... No, just a screen, yes.
But the television itself does not come in.
That is verboten in my house.
But, yes, their right to take up space.
You know, that's really what we need to consider.
Do white people have the right to take up space?
That's going to be the next issue.
In any case, there was an interesting article in the New York Daily News.
I'm always fascinated when the mainstream media talk about IQ.
This had to do with vaccination, and the title was, Vaccine Skepticism or Just Lower IQ?
It goes on to say, 5 of the 10 states with the lowest IQs are among the 10 states with the lowest rates of fully vaccinated adults.
Half the 10 smartest states rank among the 10 most vaccinated ones.
Mississippi ranks dead last on both lists, with residents having both the lowest IQ scores and the lowest vaccination rates.
Uh-oh, those stupid anti-vaxxers.
Maine has the highest rate of fully vaccinated people, 18 or older, and the nation's 7th highest average IQ.
Massachusetts apparently tops the IQ list and has the fourth highest rate of inoculated adults.
And here are the 10 states with the lowest IQ averages.
And they generally, there's this correlation between low IQ and low vaccination rates.
Mississippi, 94.2.
Louisiana, 95.3.
California, 95.5.
Hawaii, 95.6.
Alabama, 95.7.
New Mexico, 95.7.
Nevada, 96.5.
Arizona, 97.4.
What do you find in common about these states, huh?
Well, I can tell you real quick here.
95.7, New Mexico 95.7, Nevada 96.5, Arizona 97.4. What do you find in common about these states?
Well, I can tell you real quick here in Mississippi, I believe the blackest state in the
union. I'm on a website here that shows vaccinations by race.
In Mississippi, 38% of blacks Are vaccinated.
Yes.
Compared to 56% of whites.
Wait a second.
Wait a second.
Why did the article on that actually get into this data?
Somehow they failed to get into that.
And yes, all of these states, Hawaii, whites are a minority.
California, whites are a minority.
New Mexico, I think whites are a minority.
Arizona, they're headed that way.
Boy oh boy.
And Mississippi blacks are 38% of the population.
Mississippi.
Mississippi, 38 percent.
I would have thought maybe more, but be that as it may, yes, it's those low black, you know, the vaccination rates meet the standard pattern for school grades, incarceration rates, illegitimacy rates, anything you look at.
Asians are the most vaccinated, then whites, then Hispanics, then blacks.
So there you go.
But they say it has to do with the IQ of the state.
As of August 16th, the CDC shows, and you can go to kff.org, To get this chart, and it's exactly what Mr. Taylor just said.
67% of Asians have had at least one COVID vaccine dose.
This is between March 1st and August 16th, 2021.
So 67% of Asians.
So 67% of Asians, white people, all right, 50%.
50% of white people in America have received one dose.
Hispanics are at 45%.
Blacks at 40%.
So I want to know why we're seeing all these stories that try and peg, oh, all these Trump anti-vaxxers, these Republicans, they're waving their flag, and they're saying, don't jab me, bro.
You can't stick it.
You know, they've got their Gadsden flags.
In reality... Remember, 10% of blacks voted for Donald Trump, so they must be...
They're the ones.
You get a higher Hispanic percentage too, that's right.
But no, again, we're not talking about illegals, the COVID stuff breaking.
I mean, this is such a strange issue, but the point is, who has the lowest vax rates?
In a city like New York City, I think I read where 28% of blacks have been vaxed.
So now, you know, they've got basically the vaccine passports that are mandatory, or the card to be able to get into restaurants.
Sounds like disparate impact to me.
It sounds like a lawsuit.
Yes, it's going to be made illegal.
There's a lot of civil rights lawyers that want to jump on it.
Can't have those.
It affects black people.
Who would have thought that vaccine vaccination cards are the real racists?
Yeah.
Well, and another IQ story.
Having to do with the Paralympics.
This is a story this week in Yahoo Sports, and I thought it was really worth getting into in some detail, and let me read from it.
Because, did you know, in addition to traditional wheelchair basketball, the Paralympic Games in 2000 hosted another basketball tournament reserved for the mentally disabled.
Did you know there was such a thing?
Mentally disabled basketball.
Paralympic Committee had set an IQ, an intelligent quotient.
Now, I love this.
In this article it says, intelligent quotient, then open params, IQ, close params, in case this is a concept that's new to you.
A threshold at 70 to be considered mentally disabled.
Sydney in October 2000 was marked by the impressive performance of the Spanish team.
Victorious in all its matches by at least 15 points, the Spanish surprised all observers, even crushing the Russian favorites in the final 87-63.
The day after their victory, the Paralympic champions appeared in Marca, one of the main Spanish sports dailies, with gold medals hanging around their necks.
But after the publication, the newspaper's editorial staff received messages from readers claiming they recognized some of the players and they have no mental disabilities.
In November 2000, one of the players from the victorious team in Sydney, Carlos Ribagorda, revealed that he was a journalist for the financial newspaper Capital.
He joined the team and did not suffer from any intellectual disability at all.
It turns out a total of 10 out of the 12 on the Spanish team had faked mental handicap to participate during their entire Paralympic journey.
Most of the players pretended to have a disability.
The Spanish Paralympic Committee quickly opened investigation with overwhelming conclusions.
10 of the 12 gold medalists had an IQ above 70 and they were stripped of their gold medals.
The International Paralympic Committee following the scandal purely and simply prohibited mentally disabled people from participating in the Games.
That'll solve the problem.
And it was not until the Paralympic Games in London 2012 That the IPC, International Paralympic Committee, convinced by the evolution of methods for detecting mental disabilities, reinstated athletes with intellectual disabilities.
So, now, as if between then and now, we had better IQ tests, for heaven's sake.
If you can fake anything, I suppose one thing you can fake is a lousy score on an IQ test.
But what a hilarious thing.
Of course, IQ is something that they love when it works their way, and they hate when it doesn't.
As you know, death penalty, I guess, I don't know how many states it is, at least, I think at least a score of states in the U.S., you can't get the death penalty if your IQ is below 70.
Disparate impact, right?
Has a disparate impact, but the Supreme Court decision in 2014 compels states to incorporate additional evidence of low IQ if a defendant's score falls within the range of error.
In other words, if you score 65, that might really be 70, so they get to find more proof.
Now, I believe you had a lovely story about direct reparations to blacks.
Yeah, we'll be quick because I just looked at the clock and I realized that, once again, this is one of those episodes that's streaming along, so I do encourage everyone to take a quick break, jot this down, and make sure you get in touch with us.

And Mr. Kersey, I wish you wouldn't call it award winning.
I had a query the other day, just what awards have you won?
And I had to confess, well, that is the enthusiasm of my co-host.
So let's skip the award winning, just as I have trained you not to refer to murderers and robbers as gentlemen.
So, we'll just call it a top-notch, first-rate, best-we-can-do newsletter.
It's a fantastic, as Arnold Schwarzenegger would say.
Yes, but awards it has not won.
One of the things we're not going to ask you to do is Venmo us money, but I will say that white people are Venmoing black people money, and they call it reparations.
Again, one of these articles I thought was from The Onion or Black Babylon Bee, but reality is far crazier than Than fiction.
Carrie and her five children had been evicted from their home in West Louisville in February 2020 because they couldn't pay rent after losing her job.
Family had been moving between temporary housing for months, at which point Carrie was struggling with anxiety and depression.
The domino effects of life, she said.
Finally alone that evening on July 20, she typed a message on Facebook to her friend Chanel Helm, a community organizer, asking for help.
Something along the lines that said, I don't know if I'm going to be alive for the rest of the day.
Within a minute, she received a response.
Helms wanted to help.
Helm could pay her rent, groceries, and transportation for as long as it took Carrie to get back on her feet.
The money, Carrie eventually learned, came from a Louisville organization called Reparations Roundtable.
The group is one of a small cohort that has popped up in recent years that are using social media to crowdsource, crowdfund, to distribute money to black people and calling these efforts a form of reparations, especially through the pandemic and the racial justice movement They don't mention this, but Derek Chauvin launched when he put his knee on George Floyd's back.
Efforts like Reparations Roundtable have been expanding and can now process thousands of dollars a month.
Such groups coordinate dozens of volunteers and board of directors, and one has registered as a non-profit.
While crowdfunding and mutual aid are not new concepts, these groups reflect a new stage within the centuries-old reparations debate over slavery, economic inequality, and the social safety net.
Centuries old.
Centuries old.
Okay.
The relevant party bears responsibility is the federal government, said William A. Darity Jr., professor of public policy, African and African-American studies and economics at Duke University and a reparations scholar.
This is not a matter of individual guilt.
So I guess he wants the federal government to be vindictive of people.
That's right.
Reparations Roundtable, which was founded by Helm in 2017, has a staff of 17 volunteers, all of whom are white.
Well, if they're volunteers, they better be white, you know?
They don't get paid.
Nope, nope, nope.
People to the rescue!
Now they're going to be accused of having a savior complex.
Watch out, that's the next thing that's coming their way.
I'm surprised you're not trying to figure out ways to Venmo the, you know, Afghanis who are at risk of, you know, whatever.
Well, here's a story that has been cooking for some time.
And it's, there's something called, at Berkeley, there's something called the Othering and Belonging Institute.
I love its name, Othering and Belonging.
It attempts to reframe the public discourse from a dominant narrative of control and fear towards one that recognizes the humanity of all people, cares for the earth, and celebrates our inherent interconnectedness.
It runs something called the Roots of Structural Racism Project, and it's very unhappy to report that In every metropolitan region in the United States with more than 200,000 people, 81% of them, that's 169 out of 209, were more segregated in 2019 than they were in 1990.
169 out of 209 were more segregated in 2019 than they were in 1990.
More segregated.
Only Colorado Springs and Port St. Louis Lucie, Florida qualify in their view as integrated.
Only two!
They're getting more and more segregated.
They go on to complain that neighborhood poverty rates are highest in segregated communities of color.
I could have told them that.
Yes.
And it's three times higher than in white neighborhoods.
They also discovered that household income and home values in white neighborhoods are nearly twice as high as in segregated communities of color.
Homeownership is 77% in highly segregated white neighborhoods, 59% in those rare integrated neighborhoods, which is 46% in highly segregated communities of color.
The most segregated regions are in the Midwest and the Mid-Atlantic, followed by the West Coast.
Southern states, and this has been true for decades, have the lowest levels of segregation.
It's always fair game to dump on Southerners, but there's more segregation there than in other parts of the country.
Now, who runs the Othering and Belonging Institute?
The good old OBI.
It's run by John Powell for the last nine years.
Very melanin-enhanced.
He is a tenured professor in equity and inclusion at Berkeley.
Did you know you can be a tenured professor of equity and inclusion?
Well, you can.
I'm surprised that it's not a chief executive officer of equity and inclusion for a Fortune 500 company.
Furthermore, I just love the name.
As I said, I think if I'm going to start, I think I'll call an organization the Let's Love Everyone Institute or maybe United Coalition for World Happiness.
You know where their headquarters should be?
Where would that be?
The Old American Embassy in Kabul.
That would be a great place where they could go.
And then, you know, I think I'll start a White Wickedness Research Center.
Or maybe, you know, every child a genius project.
I mean, gosh, I'm this othering.
Othering and belonging.
Oh, I love it.
Doesn't that make you feel warm and fuzzy?
Now we've got a few minutes left, so I'm going to quote from a statement from McGill University.
It has got something called the Peer Support Center.
And the Peer Support Center according to its website, and I'm reading verbatim here.
operates as part of McGill University, which is located on the unceded territories of indigenous peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabeg nations, which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange.
More specifically, our campus is built on territory that has long acted as a site of meeting and exchange amongst the Kaneanakakaka peoples, who are the rightful stewards of these lands and waters.
We are settlers here on Teotihuacan, which is to say Montreal, which is situated in the larger Turtle Island.
That's how they said North America.
Did you know that?
We live on Turtle Island.
We must understand and work against the ways in which colonial violence manifests in all facets of life.
Colonial violence is manifesting in all facets.
I'd just like to know how.
How does colonial violence manifest in your life?
Not sure.
And so, this includes but not limited to restricted access to and oppression within mental and physical care sectors, which can and have been used as weapons of colonialism.
Wow!
Mental and physical care centers have been used as weapons of colonialism.
So, this is the first thing you find out when you show up there, that it's located on land that really belongs to the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe and Kanean Kahaka people.
And it's located in Teotihuacan, which is what we really should be calling Montreal.
And instead of North America, we should be talking about Turtle Island.
So there you go.
That's McGill University.
It's supposed to be one of the best in Canada.
Right there in Montreal.
So the Canadians are just as goofy as we are.
Well, our president's basically putting his head back in his shell like a turtle would, so maybe that's not the worst thing to call the United States of America right now.
Yes, Turtle Island.
Yes, we're all turtles.
Well, as usual, we've come all too soon to the end of our hour with our beloved listeners wherever you are around the world, and it is, as always, a privilege and an We really do appreciate the time you spend with us, and we enjoy the time we spend with you, so we look forward to speaking with you again.
