Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and today is November 16th, Year of Our Lord 2022.
With me, of course, is my indispensable, irreplaceable, incandescent co-host Paul Kersey.
I assume you are in fine form today, sir.
Oh, I'm just glad I got to be incandescent in this version of the program.
Hello to all of our listeners worldwide!
You are always incandescent.
And as usual, we'll start with a couple of listener comments.
And last week we had a story about some Haoles, that is to say, white man in local Hawaiian lingo, who were trying to fix up a property on one of the smaller islands and were brutally attacked by the locals who don't want whites in the neighborhood.
There goes the beach, you know, as soon as you have white people walking along.
And our listener, who lives in Hawaii, points out that he's lived there for the past 14 years, and the story you told of assault on Maui doesn't surprise me one bit.
I've experienced being a second-class citizen here, and the locals will twist the laws and workplace rules to benefit themselves at the expense of Haole's every chance they get.
Tulsi Gabbard is Samoan.
And while the locals will generally unite against a howling, the Samoans and Hawaiians can't stand each other.
It's not the melting pot everyone makes it out to be.
And like most diverse areas, it's very segregated.
What I find funny, though, is that there are few, if any, full-blooded Native Hawaiians.
Most who claim to be Hawaiian are mixed race.
usually predominantly Asian with Asian or even European last names, but they can trace one ancestor to 1789, so they qualify as Hawaiian.
So, they may hate Howleys, they may very well have more Howley blood and definitely more Asian blood than Hawaiian.
If my experience here is indicative of what whites can expect as a minority in the USA, and I believe it is, We are in for a rough ride, and I feel bad for future generations.
There you go.
And another comment.
Thanks very much, by the way.
This person's name is Eric.
And again, thank you very much for that comment.
The next comment is, a couple of episodes back, Mr. Taylor asserted that white Europeans' genetic profile has not substantially changed between the 19th century, when we exhibited much healthier behavior, and today, when obvious pathology abounds.
I was curious whether he is familiar with Edward Dutton's hypothesis in his book, Spiteful Mutants, namely that the Industrial Revolution had a profound dysgenic effect Allowing maladaptive mutants to accrue in the population.
As a matter of fact, I am familiar with that theory and that hypothesis.
I'm about one third of the way through the book, Spiteful Mutants, and I'm reading it with great interest.
The theory is, as our listener does say, The Industrial Revolution and expanding health means that all sorts of people who would not have survived infancy or early childhood go on to be adults and to reproduce, and that they have mutations which would have been cleared out by natural selection before the Industrial Revolution.
These people therefore have what Ed Dutton calls spiteful mutants, and these are people who are anti-nationalist and who are doing all sorts of things to hamper the ordinary growth of families, the notion of defending the tribe, all the normal things that we take for granted, these spiteful mutants do not do.
And as their numbers increase in the population, they influence people who are normal to likewise be abnormal.
I'm not quite sure what I think about this.
One thing that I would say is that it is strange to me that the spiteful mutants have been multiplying at such a rate among whites, but not among other wealthy countries, the East Asians, for example.
They have had very low infant mortality rates, probably for almost as long as we have, but do not show the same traits.
But in any case, it is an intriguing hypothesis, and a tip of the hat to our listener, and also a tip of the hat to Ed Dutton, who, with another fellow, Michael Woodley of Meany, came up with this theory.
This same listener goes on to say, your program covered the astronomically high proportion of Parisian crime committed by foreign-born people.
As I understand it, France forbids collection of racial data.
So while foreign-born or migration status may be acceptable official categories, European, African, Middle Easterner are not categories.
Given the large numbers of Africans and Muslims that have been indeed born in France, how many of these native French crimes are in fact committed by Africans and Muslims?
It's true the French, in the name of liberty, equality, and fraternity, do not have an official count by race.
On the other hand, people who look into this, people who are concerned about the demographic future of the United States, Try their best to take into consideration the fact that there are so many native French born and French citizen people of foreign origin, mostly North African and Middle Eastern and a fairly substantial number of sub-Saharan Africans.
So we can get some sense of just how outrageously high the non-white crime rate is.
But that's an excellent point.
The French really do need to do better on their data collection.
And moving on to our first story, it has to do with the attitudes of blacks towards racism.
And for a number of reasons, I found this Pew survey.
Pew does really quite interesting work trying to figure out what Americans think, what Americans are at least prepared to say they think.
And Pew finds that Africans tend to view racism by individuals.
I'm sorry, Americans in general.
tend to view racism by individual as a much bigger problem for Black people in the United States than racism in the nation's laws or systemic racism.
Black Americans themselves, however, are much more likely to say that racism in American law is the bigger problem and not racism by individuals.
So overall, about two-thirds of U.S.
adults, 65%, They say that when it comes to racism against black people in the United States today, the problem of individual people is bigger than the problem of racism in any kind of laws.
About a quarter, or 23%, say racism in the law is a bigger problem.
Another 10% say there's no discrimination against black people in the country today at all.
And when it comes to racism by individuals, if that's the problem, not structural or racism in the law, whites say individuals 70%, Asians 65%, and Hispanics 63%.
Then it's interesting the number of people who say there isn't any discrimination at all against black people.
Whites are the least likely, at 11%, and Asians and Hispanics are slightly more likely to say there is no racism against black people at all in the country.
In other words, Asians and Hispanics, 12%, both say this.
Now, when it comes to blacks, blacks, on the other hand, say that the problem of racism is 52% it's in the laws.
The majority say it's in the laws, as opposed to the two thirds or greater of the other races who say it's not, that it's individuals.
52% say that the problem is in the laws and only 43% say that the real problem of racism is individual people.
Only 3% of blacks say that there is no racism at all.
Now, to me, this is quite fascinating because we hear over and over again that racism is something that black people encounter every day.
Mr. Kersey, do we not hear that?
They say every day.
Well, yes.
That's all we hear.
Yes.
Yes.
And if racism is in the laws, I mean, this is not something that you would encounter
until you broke the law.
It's not as though they're out there breaking the law every day.
Even some of the worst of ghettos, people are not out there breaking every law
in the country every day.
So I think what this recognizes is that when people say all this stuff about,
oh, every day we have to submit to just the horrors of being black, it's our daily, hourly, minutely,
second by second cross we bear. That's all baloney.
That's really baloney.
And when they see that they have problems, they're going to blame it on laws, not individual people.
Whereas more and more other people think, well, wait a minute, there's nothing wrong with the laws.
And when you ask yourself, Mr. Kersey, name one law that discriminates against black people.
I mean, I'd come up completely short.
I don't know what they're even thinking in terms of.
What laws are racist?
I don't know.
You could say laws, of course, have disparate impact because blacks are more likely to break them than others.
Laws against murder, shoplifting, arson, all of those things, they are more likely to affect black people, but only because they break those laws.
Now, by age group, it's a kind of interesting thing.
Younger people are more likely to say that the problem is laws rather than individuals.
In other words, ages 18 through 29, 33 percent say laws are the problem.
30 to 49, 27 percent.
50 to 54, 19 percent.
65 and over, 17 percent.
say laws are the problem. 30 to 49, 27 percent. 50 to 54, 19 percent. 65 and over, 17 percent.
And most of the rest say the problem is individual people.
Now, the problem for folks who take that view is that there's so few people they can point to and
say, well, look at that racist.
We got one.
We caught one.
And that's why there's such a hullabaloo every time some poor, unfortunate white person does the wrong thing.
And that person just gets strung up high, high, high on the nearest lamppost as an example of racist white people because we've got them too.
In the meantime, It was interesting to me, the same Pew study found that because they believe that the problem is not racist white people so much as laws, if you ask them what are the institutions that have to be completely rebuilt, completely rebuilt Mr. Kersey, they will say 54% say the prison system has to be completely rebuilt.
What in heaven's name does that even mean?
Imagine just also the policing system.
49% of blacks, that's half of blacks, say that you have to completely rebuild the policing system.
48%, almost as many say the courts and judicial process have to be completely rebuilt.
The political system, 42%.
The economic system, 37%.
Completely rebuild the economic system.
What do they want?
Scientific socialism?
They want the dictatorship of the proletariat?
Crazy!
And the health care system has got to be rebuilt according to 34% of them.
This is just the nuttiest stuff going.
But this is the kind of thing that the American educational system, the media are always pounding, pounding, pounding.
So that you've got to rebuild the courts, the political system, economic system, health care, prison, policing, in order to get justice for blacks.
We have to turn our society inside out, upside down, right to left, top to bottom, for justice for blacks.
At the same time, quite interesting data on the number of blacks who say funding for the police department should be increased.
35% say that, locally.
39% stay about the same, but decreased 23%.
Only a quarter of blacks think that funding for the police should be decreased.
So again, all of this is, I think, very, very interesting stuff.
And the final matter on this, as to what blacks say, as opposed to what other people say, 67% of blacks say that being black is very important to them.
Two-thirds.
17% say it is somewhat important to them.
That means we're talking about 84% of black people who say being black is very important or somewhat important.
Only 14% say it's not very important or not important at all.
What would you reckon the responses to that question would be for whites?
What percentage of whites would tell a pollster that being white is very important to them?
Oh, I would say under 10% if that.
Yeah.
But here, 67% of blacks.
I'd like to see that figure for Hispanics and Asians, too.
But there you go.
Meanwhile, as the takeover of Twitter by Elon Musk continues, we have a continuing wave of anti-Musk news coverage of this phenomenon.
Oh, do we ever.
This is from our great friends at News1.com.
That, of course, is a A corporate-funded news site for blacks, by blacks, and of blacks.
And I actually subscribe, Mr. Taylor, to their email.
So I get all sorts of great stories in my inbox every day.
And this one kind of put a smile on my face.
Amid Twitter layoffs, Elon Musk brushed aside concerns of diversity.
Of course, you're not on Twitter right now, so Uncle Jared is yet to be unleashed once again upon the digital world of the bluebirds.
Look out there, Twitter users.
Here I come.
Or we think maybe.
Let's hope so.
More grim details are emerging about Musk's brutal Twitter takeover.
Havoc ensued shortly after the Tesla CEO acquired the popular social media company.
Thousands of staff members across the global team of Twitter have been fired, many without notice.
Some staff are feeling the brunt of Musk's so-called chaotic acquisition, like Twitter staff in Ghana, who were let go on the same day the company opened its headquarters in Accra.
As News 1 previously reported, it's still unclear as to whether Musk offered severance pay to those impacted in Africa, which is quite odd given that termination pay was offered to laid-off Twitter employees in India and other team members around the world.
Well, I bet their offices have been open for a while.
I mean, it is a little bit of a jolt to be fired the very day the office opens, but I would imagine in order to get severance pay, you'd have to have been an employee for a little while.
But maybe, maybe, maybe, Mr. Kersey, it was that old boogeyman racism?
Ah, well, here's where we get to it.
In a scathing report published by the New York Times on November 11th,
several Twitter executives warned Musk to carefully assess his layoff plan for
diversity and inclusion issues so that the cuts would not disproportionately impact workers of
color. But the South African businessman and his team brushed aside the suggestion. The report
Well, you know, I don't think it's against the law to simply cut workers you don't need
and let the chips fall where they may.
I don't think that is yet a hanging offense.
Not yet, not yet.
But following the move, laid off Twitter employees and workers in Ghana said they felt insulted, discriminated against, and disrespected by the way they were upheld by the company.
Employment lawyers in Africa to assess whether Musk unlawfully terminated their contracts.
Because, as anointed people of color, they have special privileges that aren't exactly open to individuals that are not melanin-enriched, such as myself and you.
Yes, you and I are deeply, deeply melanin-deprived.
And you look back at all the problems we've ever had.
Mr. Kersey, I'm sure that's the cause.
Yeah, and you know, the rest of the article, it's worth reading, but it just, again, it goes on about the number of employees they've cut, because he's trying to make this, since the company that he purchased, I want to say at 53, a share for $44 billion, he has to find a way to make it profitable for him.
And there's a lot of bloat within the bureaucracy of the Twitter employee hierarchy.
And that's what this article talks about, the number of people he's let go.
As I recall, they are grieving because a lot of the people that he's let go are those who do the censoring.
These contract employees who go in and make sure that wicked people like me are muzzled.
And once those people are fired, what if I just sort of drifted back under a different name and started spewing my hate as if I had never been gone?
Imagine that.
Well, there is.
Oh, by the way, you said you got that from News One.
Yes.
It's very interesting to really see what other folks think.
That's one of the reasons why just about every morning I will turn on National Public Radio.
It's I think it's worth knowing what the fashionable people think is fashionable to think.
And it's extremely, extremely illuminating.
Most of the time, if there's an opinion expressed, you can be pretty sure that if you take the opposite opinion, you'll be absolutely right.
But it is edifying.
We need to know how these people think.
And one of the ways they think has been, has appeared in a new study in the New England Journal of Medicine.
It's a study about mask wearing.
And believe it or not, these people have decided that during COVID, mask wearing reduced racism.
Now, at first when I saw this claim, I thought, gosh, is that, is the idea because we can't see each other very well, so we don't know who's black and who's white and race really does become a social construct and that eliminates racism?
No, that's not how it worked.
There's no, as you'll see, there's actually no reasoning at all.
But the study is of two Massachusetts school districts that did not Remove their mask mandates as soon as the state allowed in March 2022, but kept them until June.
And a few months later, and the assumption is that keeping masks on for longer had the effect a few months later, They saw slightly lower COVID rates than other districts, but the study didn't look at actual mask use, just the mandates, and it did not compare anything else.
The racial composition of the schools, it didn't talk, it didn't look into a household income, anything like that.
So it sounds as though the study is mostly baloney.
So maybe it made a difference in COVID levels several months later after the mask school ended.
Maybe it didn't.
But this is the meat of the matter.
By the end of September 2021, the pandemic had caused substantial interruptions in school settings.
These effects have been disproportionately borne by groups already made vulnerable by historical and contemporary systems of oppression, including structural racism and settler colonialism.
What is this, the writers of Wakanda?
I'm sorry, of Black Panther writing this?
This, my dear Mr. Kersey, is in the New England Journal of Medicine, which used to be a serious scientific publication.
Settler colonialism.
Good grief.
You hear about that more and more all the time.
Racism isn't good enough anymore.
Discrimination isn't good enough anymore.
White supremacy isn't even good enough anymore.
You've got to blame it on settler colonialism.
And boy, I bet there's—I mean, if you go back to Massachusetts, there's been settler colonialism ever since the Mayflower.
So I guess that is the most afflicted state in the entire Union, aside from Virginia, where settler colonialism started up in 1607 at Jamestown.
In any case, all these places that are just reeling from the effects even unto this day of settler colonialism, the article goes on to say, our results also suggest that universal masking may be an important tool for mitigating the effects of structural racism in schools.
It doesn't say it'll mitigate the effect of settler colonialism.
I guess nothing will do that.
Including the differential risk of severe COVID-19, educational disruptions, and secondary transmission to household members.
School districts could use these findings to develop equitable mitigation plans in anticipation of a potential winter COVID-19 wave during the coming school year.
So there you go.
Wearing a mask might actually fight structural racism.
I bet you never would have guessed.
I never in a million years would have thought that.
Well, you've got to be a woke science writer even to conceive of that.
But you know, if anything can fight structural racism, well then boy oh boy.
I wouldn't say I'm for it, but I'm very glad if they can find things to do it because, as you know, I don't think there is such a thing as structural racism.
I don't either.
So, but I guess that they found a way to fight it.
Just wear a mask.
And, you know, if you were ever worried, or any of you listeners out there, if you were ever worried that you were somehow unconsciously popping up structural racism, just wear a mask.
Moving on to Philadelphia.
Did they say what color, by the way?
What color mask or is it?
No, I think any mask will do.
Maybe a Batman mask will do the job.
But yes, Philadelphia.
is preparing for the arrival of 52 migrants, 52 whole migrants, on a bus from Del Rio, Texas.
It would mark the first time migrants have been transported from Texas to Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love, although Governor Greg Abbott has sent thousands on buses to New York, Washington, and Chicago.
Now, I spoke some of the city said this information was relayed to us from a community partner organization Because Texas officials have not coordinated with the city.
Well, I'm glad they haven't.
But apparently they have some spy in the organization that says, look out folks, 52 wonderful new Philadelphians are headed your way.
And the city spokesman says, we do not have an exact location where the bus will disembark.
Actually, buses stop.
People disembark.
But this bus is going to disembark.
Nor do we have any specific information about those on board.
Nor do we know if other buses are planned.
Well, I say keep them in the dark.
But the 300th bus filled with migrants left Texas en route to Chicago this week.
And as you know, and probably as many of our listeners know, a record 2.3 million migrants were caught crossing the border.
The southern border in fiscal year 2022, and most of them have been unloosed upon the United States.
And we have no idea how many getaways there were, how many of these 2.3 million or more than 2.
How many?
How many are?
We just have absolutely no idea who they are or where they are.
But Greg Abbott tweeted this week, as Biden does nothing.
Texas will continue taking unprecedented action to relieve our overwhelmed border communities and secure our border.
Hooray for Greg Abbott.
Yes, yes.
One of our listeners, he wrote in to say, you know, it's all very well to put them on buses and send them a thousand miles away.
Wouldn't it be easier to send them just a few miles back across the border into Mexico?
Well, yep, I agree with that.
But apparently that's not something we're allowed to do.
Not yet.
Not yet.
I mean, again, just to just to point out something, obviously, we didn't talk much about the election last week.
But, you know, Mr. Taylor, to all of our listeners out there, never, ever, ever get down into despair.
Because this came out of nowhere, Abbott's decision yesterday, and it only takes one Yes.
person to stand up against the federal government and what Biden's done, and a story we're going to
Yes.
talk about here shortly. It's not over yet. We could seriously repatriate every illegal immigrant
in the country. And it doesn't start with being like, oh, we're going to get rid of 20, 30 million.
No, we're just going to start getting rid of 100,000. And then people will start going back.
Well, yes, that is exactly the next story we got lined up about Greg Abbott. And he has just made
some remarkable pronouncements now that he's been voted back into office.
Good man, good man.
But my point is, if you're going to send buses within the United States, I think rather than sort of distribute them around in a share-the-wealth way, they should concentrate every last one of them.
If they've sent 300 buses, why not send all 300 of them to Philadelphia?
Or some sanctuary city—it should make no difference—completely tear the place apart.
Then somebody will notice.
But if Philadelphia, for the first time, gets 52 people, are they going to notice?
Well, yeah, apparently they're going to notice.
They're going to have to have food, shelter, and interpreters, and who knows what else, medical attention to them.
But why not send them all to one place?
Don't you think that'd be a good idea?
Well, maybe now that he has set up this new plan, Apparently it was just, was it yesterday or the day before?
Greg Abbott has invoked the Invasion Clause of the United States and Texas Constitutions to declare migrants coming into Texas to the US-Mexico border an invasion.
In the US Constitution, it's Article 4, Section 4.
The federal government guarantees that it will rescue any state that is subject to an invasion.
And he's saying, look, This is the real thing.
And Governor Abbott says he will, and I'm quoting now, fully authorize Texas to take unprecedented measures to defend our state against an invasion.
He will deploy the National Guard to safeguard the border, to repel and turn back migrants trying to cross the border illegally.
Heretofore, state Supreme Court decisions have said that that's a federal responsibility, not a state responsibility.
We'll see how he fares with it.
He will also deploy the Texas Department of Public Safety to arrest and return migrants and arrest illegal immigrants for criminal activity.
He will build a wall in several counties along the border.
He will designate Mexican drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.
I'm not sure Texas has the right to do that, but he's going to do it.
And he will enter into a compact with other states to secure the border.
That's, of course, one thing that Kerry Lake was saying in Arizona.
They were going to get together with all the border states and say, look, if the feds are sitting on their hands, we are not.
Unfortunately, it doesn't look like Kerry Lake is going to be governor of Arizona.
And furthermore, he says he will provide the resources for border counties to increase their efforts to respond to the border invasion.
Now, If he does all these things, Mr. Kersey, I think he should be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
If he successfully stops illegal immigration, he will save the lives of hundreds, hundreds and hundreds of people who die trying to cross.
If he fixes things at the border so they stop trying that, he will save all of these lives.
A real, a genuine Nobel Peace Prize undertaking.
What do you think?
No, I agree, and it is a shame we still don't know what might happen in Arizona.
Obviously, the New Century Foundation does not endorse candidates, but as individuals, I will say Carrie Lake had said a number of wonderful things that she was going to do, and I do hope that there is some path to victory that still exists for her.
in a state where the current governor, for some reason, was the one who got to certify the election.
But anyways, my point is this. What's happening now is we're beginning to see the Federalists
versus the Anti-Federalists. And we've seen how many millions since Biden became president?
Oh golly. Oh.
I think it's 2.2, 2.3 million in counting?
It was 2.3.
That's just in a single fiscal year, the first fiscal year while he was in office.
It was a record up until then.
I think it was something like 1.6 million.
We've never seen numbers like this before.
He's a record-breaking president.
And not in a good way.
No.
No, but what Abbott's doing, this is the kind of thing where you, in a perfect world, you would have Governor DeSantis say, Florida stands with Texas.
Yes, yes.
I bet he will.
He will certainly.
But after all, he's another guy who puts these unwanted people on buses and airplanes and sends them where they claim they're wanted.
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
And what do they do when they show up?
Oh, not in our backyard.
Yeah, Martha's Vineyard got rid of the Floridian Venezuelans pretty quick.
They sure did.
Sure did.
I mean, too many fancy Democrats live there, and there are too many fancy big oceanfront houses.
But, Mr. Kersey, I believe that you have another immigration story.
This sad and lamented demise of Title 40—is it 42 or 43?
Title 42, but it's not it's not over yet.
Who knows what could happen?
But again, a judge is just this is this is breaking news, ladies and gentlemen.
So wherever you're listening to us, this is just coming down the wire that a judge has blocked the United States from using Title 42 to expel migrants.
Now, as Mr. Taylor alluded, in fiscal year 2022, which I believe ended in October, 2.3 million migrant encounters at the southern border occurred, while a federal judge has just issued an order on Tuesday barring federal authorities from using Title 42, which is a Trump-era rule allowing the U.S.
to quickly expel migrants who cross the border.
U.S.
District Judge Emmett Sullivan said the policy is arbitrary and capricious and violates the
Administrative Procedure Act in his ruling.
Title 42 was originally enacted at the outset of the coronavirus pandemic in March of 2020,
allowing for authorities to quickly expel migrants on public health grounds, which obviously,
again, the government's job is to protect its citizens, not to ensure their citizens
are overrun by the Great Replacement during a global pandemic.
So Title 42, again, as we said, was one of the initial Weapons that the president used to basically stop all illegal aliens from crossing the border during the COVID-19 crisis.
The Trump administration used the authority to expel more than 185,000 migrants in fiscal
year 2020, while the Biden administration expelled 937,000 migrants in 2021 and 983,000
in 2022 using Title 42, according to customs and border protection data.
Think about that.
Well, and the Biden administration didn't even want to use it.
They went to court to try to get Title 42 obliterated.
But the judge said, we haven't done it the right way.
So if had, uh, if it had not been, see, this is part of the lasting legacy of Donald Trump, that the system was still working the way he had set it up.
But now all of those hundreds of thousands of the Biden administration kicked out, apparently we'll have every right to stay if, if this goes through.
If this goes through exactly now, the CDC announced in April that the order would expire, expire at the end of May.
But a federal judge in Louisiana temporarily blocked the Biden administration from ending it in response to a lawsuit by two dozen Republican-led states.
I have a feeling that those Republican-led states are going to be filing a lawsuit yet again, because what's the role of government to protect citizens, not to protect and not to ensure that their citizenry is replaced, especially during a global pandemic?
Well, Mr. Kersey, to play devil's advocate, The idea of Title 42 was to protect Americans from people carrying vicious diseases.
But now that pretty much people are without masks and a lot of people are not bothering to get any of these boosters, the idea that we are suffering from a vicious disease is not quite, not nearly as urgent as it was at one time.
And so it would be logical in a sane world to stop applying this law.
But as you say, the real responsibility, the constitutional responsibility is stop an invasion.
So let us hope that the Abbott approach and what would have been the Cary Lake approach really is the one that prevails and we really invoke Article 4, Section 4.
Yeah, you know, as you said, the Biden administration filed an unopposed stay motion asking the judge to let the order take effect in five weeks.
The delay in implementation of the court's orders will allow the government to prepare for an orderly transition to new policies at the border, the DHS said in a statement.
Now, all of this comes as Record numbers of migrants stream across the border with nearly 2.4 million encounters.
2.4 million encounters in fiscal year 2022.
And, as I added, that's not even counting the ones who got through and got away, and we don't know who they are, where they are, what they look like.
We have no idea what's going on.
So, yep, there you go.
Now, in the meantime, in the meantime, the UN has got some very helpful and friendly predictions for white people.
As they pointed out, the world's population was projected to hit an estimated 8 billion people yesterday.
8 billion people.
The 8 billionth person emerged from the moon and will eventually be walking the earth.
And that happened yesterday.
This is according to UN projections, much of the growth coming from underdeveloped nations in Africa and Nigeria as an example.
They say resources are already stretched to the limit.
Well, I don't think it's really resources that are the problem, Mr. Kersey.
Other things are stretched to the limit.
It's a social trust, for example, or average IQ or the ability for people to delay gratification.
Those capacities are badly stretched to the limit.
More than 15 million people in the capital of Lagos compete.
Actually, Lagos is no longer the capital.
They've got a new capital called Abuja.
But Lagos is the biggest citizen, biggest city, and they compete for everything from electricity to spots on crowded buses.
It's one of those places where if you have a power line, you've got an absolute spiderweb and mayor's nest of wires coming down to individual houses.
Everybody's leeching off the system one way or another, trying not to pay.
And often on these crowded buses, they say it's frequent to have a two-hour commute each way.
Some Nigerian children set off for school as early as 5 a.m.
I bet some don't, too.
And over the next three days, the West African nation's population is expected to soar from 216 million to 375 million in the next 30 years.
That'll make Nigeria the fourth most populous country in the world after India, China, and the United States.
Kyang Dalyap, who is an urban planning and development consultant in Nigeria, says, we're already overstretching what we have.
Housing, roads, hospitals, schools, everything is at the breaking point.
The population in many countries in South Sub-Saharan Africa is projected to double in the next 30 years.
India, however, is set to overtake China as the world's most popular nation.
I wasn't aware of that.
I was always aware, but I mean, it makes sense that one-child policy has really slowed down China's population growth, and they haven't been quite as zealous in that respect in India.
Women in sub-Saharan Africa, they don't have a one-child policy.
a one-child policy.
On average in sub-Saharan Africa, they have 4.6 births, twice the current global average
of 2.3.
And the rate of teen pregnancy on the continent is the highest in the world, so they get new breeding generations that much more quickly than anyone else.
But, Mr. Kersey, listeners all around the world, the UN has a solution.
And let me quote, we need to systematically remove the barriers based on gender, race, disability, sexual orientation, or migration status.
that prevent people from accessing the services and opportunities they need to thrive.
Well, what does removing the barriers based on migration status mean?
I think you can guess.
It means let them all in.
So, yesterday was the day of eight billion, I think maybe a better term would be the century of the walking immigrant invasion.
Meanwhile, there's been yet another news alert And, Mr. Kersey, construction has been halted on the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago.
Why is this?
I beg your pardon?
I was trying to bait you into taking a pause there, because, you know, once again, it's another Noose Newsweek.
Well, I call it Fake Noose!
Because a noose, an alleged noose, was found at the site.
Now, I've seen no photographs of this noose, no description of what it looked like, and can you imagine there might be ropes on a construction site?
Is it possible that they might use them for tying things up and lifting things through pulleys?
Is that possible?
In any case... Nope, it's a lot of racism.
That's right, any rope!
I mean, I think it's gonna get to the point where you find a rope of any kind on a site.
You're gonna have to shut down production and go into anti-racism training for every single roofer and concrete layer, shingle layer, in any case.
Lakeside Alliance, a group of black-owned construction companies behind the project, they reported the incident to the police last week, Thursday.
They are offering, Mr. Kersey, A $100,000 reward to find the perps.
Now, this is a lot more money than is usually offered even for the most vicious murderers.
But I guess, as we know, an alleged noose, a not ever even photographed noose, but an alleged noose, that's worth more than the lives of many people who are brutally killed.
In a statement, the Obama Foundation The former president's non-profit called the incident a shameless act of cowardice and hate.
Governor of Illinois, because this is going up in Chicago, J.B.
Pritzker said, it is a heart-stopping reminder of the violence and terror inflicted on black Americans for centuries.
Heart-stopping reminder.
What did his heart stop?
He's still alive.
The firm behind the project said it was halting construction to provide anti-bias training to staff and workers.
But never fear, the half-billion-dollar center is due to open in 2025 on schedule.
Well, six days after the officials said that the noose was found, the construction firm
overseeing the work has started, but with additional safety and security measures.
I wonder what that means.
Video cameras everywhere.
No more ropes?
Yeah, no more ropes.
Can't have the more experienced guys showing the younger guys the ropes.
Nope, nope.
They say we will continue to provide assistance to the authorities regarding the ongoing investigation to identify the individuals responsible for this horrific act.
While Lakeside Alliance understands that no amount of training will lessen the impact of last week's heinous act, we will continue to provide anti-bias, inclusion, and belonging training on an ongoing basis to help foster an inclusive work environment.
Boy, I guess no news is good news!
Hold on a second.
You just said something, Mr. Taylor, that I don't know if my, I know myself, I don't know if our audience has ever heard this phrase before.
Did you say belonging training?
Yes.
What in the world is belonging training?
Well, I think it's probably as useful as inclusion training.
I think it's probably a similar line of approach.
Belonging training.
The thing is, if you're on the job, if you're getting a paycheck, if you've been hired, I think you should have no question that you belong.
But I guess the idea is you have to be told that everybody else belongs.
It's not just you.
That'd be my guess.
But then I think like a lefty when I try.
Now, no one is surprised to know that no one has been charged in the incident, and the Chicago PD said it has no updates.
Ever since the discovery of this heinous, heart-stopping reminder of centuries of violence, there have been no developments.
A Lakeside spokesman declined to comment on the details, including where the noose was found, or was it positioned in a threatening way?
Well, but this is Chicago, after all, a place that has never had a hate crime hoax, right?
I mean, Jussie Smollett did his thing in Alabama, if I'm remembering right.
Gosh, Jussie Smollett, that was almost four years ago this January or February.
Wow, does time fly!
Yes, it does.
But this is Chicago.
This is Chicago.
And it's never seen a fake hate crime ever in its history.
But they're gonna hunt for it.
Now, do you remember, I believe in Connecticut, there was a big facility they were building for Amazon.
And they found electric wires that were apparently in some menacing loop form.
And they found some, and they shut down the site, and they had all of this blogging training.
And then, lo and behold, they found some more.
It was just a repeated horror.
Horror after horror.
And they never found the perp.
And my guess is the perp was not a Caucasian.
But then, what do I know?
Exactly.
How dare you make that accusation?
Well, the only people who profit from this, of course, are the people who dish out this belonging training.
I bet you get paid a lot of money to do belonging training.
Not very many people know how to do that.
And also, the people who think they are not thought belonging by the wicked white people on the site, they just love to hear about how bad white people are and how wonderful they are.
So, there are obvious reasons why somebody might want to do this.
But the idea that somebody does this because he thinks that black people should be hanging from the rafters or something, this is, let's just put it this way, highly unlikely in my view.
Now moving on to San Antonio, Texas.
There's a downtown art installation of a chrome head of Vladimir Lenin, and it's right next to Texas Public Radio headquarters.
I think that's the perfect place for it.
And it's on a property called La Zona.
It is a community art space.
Lenin came to La Zona in March.
That would have been just after the invasion of Ukraine.
I guess these people who run La Zona are commies or Russian nationalists or something.
But it's a traveling installation from international artists called the Gao Brothers.
Well, this head of Lenin, this silvery head of Lenin is 20 feet tall.
Bright, shiny chrome.
It's quite an impressive thing.
And the Art Center CEO, Matt Brown, who runs La Zona, says that it is a space that will enhance the beauty, prosperity, and playfulness of downtown.
Well, as we all know, Lennon was a really playful guy, so he'll fit right in.
However, someone got a little bit too playful, and a bomb was detonated under the structure.
Yes, yes, yes.
Believe it or not, it went kaboom.
It was captured on video, and you can actually see the guy planting this bomb, and he scurries off, but it is impossible to tell just how melanin-enhanced or deprived he was.
The San Antonio Fire Department arson investigators are now looking into this apparent vandalizing, as they call it.
Well, I don't know.
It's pretty clear to me.
They tried to blow it up.
But now here, of course, is a sculpture we worry deeply about.
Gotta track that bad guy down.
But thank goodness it was not a sculpture of George Floyd or someone even more important, such as Martin Luther King.
So, Mr. Kersey, I believe you have some news about St.
Louis for us.
Yeah, this is one of those stories that reminds me years ago, there was a white lesbian business owner in Baltimore who wrote a post, I think it was Baltimore, You're Breaking My Heart, where she lamented how bad crime was getting in Baltimore.
This was 2013.
I can only imagine that she's since probably left Baltimore, probably left the state of Maryland and moved to a white topia somewhere where She can live a life unmolested by high rates of black crime, but the same can't be said for St.
Louis, where the headline in the St.
Louis Post-Dispatch Mr. Taylor was, we're on life support.
Downtown St.
Louis business leader is ready to leave.
A longtime downtown booster is moving out of downtown St.
Louis and he's making some noise about it.
Aaron Perlut, a founding partner at marketing firm Elasticity, wrote a LinkedIn post Blasting City Hall for not doing more to deal with drag racing, gunfire, and general lawlessness in the area.
Now, if you know anything about St.
Louis City crime, as Mr. Taylor and I do, you know that he's pretty much talking about black crime when he talks about black drag racing, black gunfire, and black general lawlessness.
But he just omits the word black.
So for a region to be healthy, its heart must be strong, he wrote.
Someone get the defibrillator.
We're on life support.
Oh, that's good.
Someone get the defibrillator.
Yes, St.
Louis is on life support.
Yeah, that defibrillator was once called Jim Crow.
But anyways, he wrote the post after hearing an employee's car had been broken into right outside the office.
On the aptly named Locust Street, the second time in the past few weeks.
Quote, it makes us yearn for the culmination of our lease, which comes at the end of 2022 when we leave downtown, he wrote.
It's only the latest complaint about downtown in recent years.
The pandemic hit hard, emptying offices, restaurants and entertainment venues.
High profile shootings, drag, racing and late night mayhem filled the gaps.
No, no.
Is drag racing?
That means they dress up in girls' clothes and rush up and down the street?
No, no, no, no, no.
No, it doesn't.
These days, you never know.
These days, you never know.
No, no, no.
You never know.
Maybe in some states, drag racing would qualify, as what you just described, but in this case, it's illegal street racing.
I think the last time someone used the term drag racing in that context, it was George Lucas in American Graffiti, a movie you might have seen, that lionized 1950s-style Americana.
But no, no one's going to be lionizing 2022.
St.
Louis, where much different kind of drag racing goes on than what we're used to.
Residents have complained they can't sleep at night.
Some business owners have worried the bad headlines will scare clientele away, and others have considered relocating themselves.
Now, Peerloot isn't waiting around to find out what happens next.
Elasticity leases up, and the company, which employs 30 or so people, they're headed to Grand Center, which is a far safer area of the metropolitan St.
Louis area.
Wow, you know, it makes you wonder whether some of these cities will even come back ever.
If the downtown cannot control crime, I mean, it's like San Francisco.
San Francisco used to be a beautiful, wonderful place, but if it gets absolutely uninhabitable, some of these places may never come back.
Well, there are some places that are on the way out too, and one is Ireland.
Under a proposed incitement to violence or hatred and hate offenses bill.
Isn't that a mouthful?
Incitement to violence or hatred and hate offenses.
People found to be in possession of material deemed to be able to provoke hatred against protected individuals.
That's not you or me, Mr. Kersey.
Could face up to two years in jail.
Two years in jail just for having the stuff around.
While those found with illegal material may be able to claim that they had no intention of actually distributing it, such an excuse would require them to prove to the court they had no intention to distribute.
Imagine that.
You've got a copy, say a 20-year-old copy of our paper version of American Renaissance, and you'd have to prove that you had no intention to distribute it.
Under the bill as proposed, a judge at the district court level We'll be able to issue a search warrant against a person's home should a member of the country's police service claim under oath that there is reasonable grounds to believe illegal material may be present in a person's home.
Now, how they would know that, I don't know.
But they just got to march in and say, I've got reasonable grounds.
You can't prove it's there.
You don't have to prove it's there.
It doesn't have to be there if you look for it and it doesn't show up.
The vast majority, I mean this is staggering, within the Irish Parliament voiced support for implementing hate speech rules.
The campaign group Free Speech Ireland says, our experience in canvassing, and that means finding out what people actually think, is that the will to oppose this bill is far greater than the will to impose it.
But, he goes on to emphasize the group will continue to campaign against this proposed legislation until the bill is rejected, which I very much hope it is.
But, golly, what a horrible thing that would be!
I would say, I don't know, maybe half the books on my bookshelf would be illegal to possess in Ireland.
It depends on, and how are they going to define any of that?
Is there going to be a list of prohibited books?
Is there going to be a list of prohibited magazine articles?
What a crazy, crazy thing.
But that's Ireland for you.
Meanwhile... That's most of the Western world for you.
Yes, yes.
Meanwhile, a 350-year-old pub in Scotland is going to change its name.
Now, why would a 350-year-old pub change its name?
I think our listeners know the answer.
Because it might be seen as racist.
The pub is called the Black Bitch.
And the name goes back to a local legend of a black female greyhound, a bitch, that features in the town's heraldic crest after it brought food to its starving owner who had been imprisoned on an island.
What a nice dog.
A statue commemorating the legend still stands in the center of the historic Scottish town.
However, the brewer Green King, it's a combine that owns a lot of pubs, says Green King is on a journey to become a truly anti-racist organization.
Anybody who uses the word journey automatically makes me reach for my sidearm.
And it has already changed the name of a few of their public houses in England on the grounds that the names have racist connotations.
But apparently there's a huge outcry locally.
The natives are bitchy, it seems, but the change is likely to go to hit.
Are they black bitchy?
They're just bitching.
They're bitching in every color of the rainbow, it seems to me.
But the townspeople may be boycotted until they get their black bitch back.
But this is just the nuttiest stuff.
Maybe they have a good journey to get their black bitch back.
Can we use that context?
Bon voyage!
Well, Mr. Kersey, we don't have that much time, but I think you have a very interesting article from NPR on just how bad the reporting on the rise in crime has been and how deceptive and wicked and evil and potentially racist it all is.
See, this is one of those stories you have to read it for yourself to kind of understand just how insane NPR is and the times we live.
I don't want to read all of it, but I'll just read a little of it.
Stories about crime are rife with misinformation and racism, critics say.
See, you say the word journey when someone goes on a journey that makes you want to reach for your sidearm.
Whenever someone uses the word misinformation or disinformation, That makes me want to reach for, not a sidearm, but a semi-automatic, you know, banali.
The specter of rising crime has become a central part of the 2022 midterm elections.
It's been on heavy rotation, Republican campaign ads, and nightly it's the topic du jour on Fox News.
Even much of the mainstream media is covering crime as though the country is in the middle of some kind of crisis.
De facto accepting the political narrative, especially, but not exclusively, the Republican narrative.
But is there actually a crime wave?
Turns out the answer is deeply complicated.
So was the question.
Wait a second.
Really, all you have to do is look at the crime stats for one year, compared to the next, compared to the next.
Maybe how about crime stats the two years prior to George Floyd in May of 2020, and then what it looks like after George Floyd, when police were basically told to stand down.
I don't think it's that deeply complicated.
But anyways, so they say to start with FBI crime stats from 2021, the big takeaway is where crime is up on some measures and it's down on others.
In broad strokes, up on homicides, down on property crimes, similar to 2020.
But those numbers come with a giant asterisk.
Because of a long planned change in reporting standards, most cities did not report their 2021 crime numbers to the FBI.
Now, do you remember why that was?
I sure don't.
Do you?
I don't.
I think it had something to do with the fact that they didn't want to actually show an increase in violent crime, because so many cities, they didn't want what just happened to St.
Louis to happen to their cities, as that narrative, as that political narrative of when police were told to, hey, you know what?
I think you were told in Richmond, actually, you could burn down the entire city in June of 2020, and the police wouldn't stop you.
You could steal every car.
And they had been told, don't intervene.
So long as you don't steal people or burn them down, you're okay.
So anyways, the rest of the article just goes on to basically try and state that how dare conservatives, how dare Republicans, notice that, gosh, there has been an uptick in crime, and they try and do everything to persuade their audience, hey listen, yeah, so crime stats might be up, but again, it's only bad people who notice.
That's right.
Only bad people who notice.
And I think you and I would be number one and number two.
Well, here's one of the lines.
Here's one of the lines.
We'll end on this.
It says this.
Numerous studies have shown that black and brown people are policed and arrested at much higher levels than white people.
Oh, God.
What an idea.
What an observation.
Well, Mr. Kersey, Our cup runneth over, our time runneth under, as it so often does, as in fact it always does.
And once again, we do love hearing from you, and if you would like to approach me, Jared Taylor, you can go to amren.com, A-M-R-E-N.com, and go to the Contact Us tab, and tell us any errors we've made, any observations you have on our stories, anything else you would like for us to know.
Or the other option to get to Mr. Kersey is Yeah, all one word, ladies and gentlemen, because we live here at ProtonMail.com.
Once again, all one word, because we live here at ProtonMail.com.
And Mr. Taylor, I hope you and the employees of the New Century Foundation have a phenomenal conference this weekend in Tennessee.
