Time Text
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and with me is my indispensable, irreplaceable, incandescent co-host, none other than Paul Kersey.
Today is December 28, 2022, and I hope that all of our listeners, wherever you are, all around the world, had a wonderful, happy Christmas with the people that you love best.
May not have had a white Christmas, but I hope you had a very merry Christmas.
This is our last podcast of 2022, and I can assure you that Paul Kersey and I are looking forward to a 2023 that
will be better than 2022, which was filled with all sorts of things that were not so good for
our people, but some things that were good. We like to keep an optimistic strike, an optimistic
balance, and hope for a better year in 2023. What do you think, Mr. Kersey? Well, happy Boxing
Day to all of our listeners in, happy belated Boxing Day to all of our listeners in Canada
and the UK.
I cannot stress what you just said.
I think that some exciting things are happening.
And again, we never know what's going to happen.
That's why we do these podcasts, to reach out to those who are Ready and willing to listen and talk to their friends about the only issue that matters.
I think it's really that simple.
And I believe that 2023 is going to be a phenomenal year.
Well, very good.
Very good.
We'll be counting on that.
And as is our custom, we will start with a comment.
This is from a Canadian listener.
This past weekend, a group of teenage girls beat a 59-year-old man to death in the heart of Toronto's business district.
This crime is getting a lot of attention with Canadian and American outlets because the suspects are female and some are as young as 13.
Unfortunately, in Canada, the authorities do not release the identities of suspects or even convicted criminals if they're minors, so we don't know who they are.
During my life, Canadian citizens have gone from being clean, safe, well-run, to being overcrowded, full of ignorance, and expensive, while violent crime steadily increases, although it pales in comparison to cities like Chicago or Baltimore.
Needless to say, when something like this happens in the not-so-quaint and not-so-white North, it gets people thinking.
And in any case, I don't think this is the work of a bunch of girls with Scottish last names who play on their high school volleyball team and were raised in nuclear families.
If you have any insight into this story, I would love to hear about it on Radio Renaissance.
Well, we don't have any extra insight, I'm sorry to say.
It is true that this crime was committed by three 13-year-old girls, three of them, three 14-year-old girls, joined by two 16-year-old girls.
The man, the victim, was living in a shelter.
And according to news accounts, all eight girls have been charged with second-degree murder, but as minors, cannot be publicly named per Canada's Youth Criminal Justice Act.
Now, this is interesting.
We know their ages.
We know their sex.
But why can't we know their race?
That's been very, very tightly controlled.
Someone noted that there had been a video of a press conference about this with 500 comments.
And apparently someone took the trouble to search the comments, and the question of race came up only once.
So this is all being very carefully controlled.
Someone else though sent me information according to which all confirmed suspects in killings in Toronto are black.
I've seen that exact same study.
And non-fatal shootings are almost exclusively black in Toronto as well.
That's correct.
Despite the fact that in 2016, do you know what the percentage of blacks in Toronto was?
It was under 10%, wasn't it?
It was 9%.
As usual, that steel trap mind of Paul Kersey never lets anything escape.
And I'd like to say, Mr. Taylor, just to briefly say, the fact that we don't know their race means we do know their race.
Indeed.
Indeed.
In fact, well, as soon as the crime was committed, we knew their race.
Another comment.
I enjoy your weekly podcast, here with a question.
YouTuber Mark Dice is trying to popularize the term anti-whitism.
He says the term racism is virtually useless to describe the increasing vitriol and animus for white people, because the public has been conditioned to believe racism applies only to discrimination against blacks or non-whites.
He also says the term reverse racism.
He rejects it because it's a weak attempt to rehabilitate a word that's always been used to target us.
Do you agree with his point that we need a term to describe what is happening to white people?
Yes.
And do you agree with his use of the term anti-whitism?
Well, to that my question is no.
I don't really care for anti-whitism.
I think we can just say people hate white people or discontent or disparaging remarks about white people.
Anti-whitism just has a sort of jargonesque feel to me.
What do you think, anti-whitism?
No, I'm not a fan of it.
I think they're just bigoted toward white people.
There's animosity, vitriol toward whites.
I think that the term racist is silly.
I think that Mark Dice, it's fascinating to watch his career.
Mr. Taylor, I'm not sure if you're familiar with him, he started off as sort of a conspiracy theorist talking about Bohemian Grove and all sorts of things in Hollywood.
He had a couple books on that subject and now he's drifted to really the only conspiracy that is Easy to discern, and that is how openly
The elite have animosity toward whites, and I think why his audience is growing in leaps and bounds, Mr. Taylor, is because he continues to fill a void that, you know, you built the bridge to.
There's so many people, and it's fascinating to know that his brand is taking off, because it just shows you people all across America, all across the Western world, know There is something wrong with the way that white people are presented and not just popular culture, but the way that there's just unbelievable denigration against whites.
Yes, yes, no question about it.
And I'm glad that he's moving in the right direction.
Our star writer, Gregory Hood, points out that the only real conspiracy theory out there is the idea that there is white privilege.
That is something that is cooked up, that doesn't exist, but everybody's promoting from behind the scenes.
Quite privileged.
That's a conspiracy theory.
But let's see, yet another comment here.
While discussing the complaints being made against the Argentine World Cup soccer team for its excessive whiteness.
That was from a New York Times story, as I recall.
Or was it Washington Post?
I get those two confused these days.
They're just so political.
It was Washington Post.
Yes.
You wondered rhetorically why this charge is not made against non-white nations.
Yes.
How come the Korean team doesn't have any Africans on it?
And at some point you asked why Morocco was never scolded for not having more Africans on the team.
Well, Morocco is an African country, and so all its players were African.
Normally, I wouldn't bring up such a pedantic point, but the hosts impressed with their insistence on speaking only as accurately as possible, so I figured I would chime in.
Well, yes, that's pedantic, but I appreciate the approach here.
If that's the worst we got wrong on that podcast, or the last ten podcasts, Mr. Kersey, I think we can congratulate each other.
It's true.
Correct.
All the members of the Moroccan soccer team were Africans, but they were North Africans and not Sub-Saharan Africans.
And in a way, it's almost confusing to talk about those two groups as Africans, because the distinctions between them are very significant.
Now, here, this is my favorite comment for this podcast.
You need a new term to describe white people.
I suggest one that I heard the other day in a discussion among blacks about how awful we are.
They called us melanemics.
We all suffer from melanemia.
What do you think of that?
I like that term.
We are melanemics.
We are anemic in that essential substance that makes a human fully human.
Yes, our first story here is about police recruiting, and this is the New York Times.
The New York Times has discovered, my goodness, as American police departments seek to overcome an exodus of disgruntled officers and a sudden decline in applicants, They're wooing recruits with some of the tactics a football coach might use to land a prized quarterback.
On the West Coast, some agencies are offering bonuses worth tens of thousands of dollars to lure officers from other departments to transfer.
A steep drop In the number of people wanting to become police officers since the start of the pandemic and the unrest of 2020 have given extraordinary leverage to job seekers.
Those are the only things they can think of.
The pandemic.
And the unrest of 2020.
Departments are marketing themselves in new ways.
Seattle Police.
Oh, Seattle, where it all started.
They lost hundreds of officers after the unrest of 2020.
Which included a so-called autonomous zone and a police station that the department vacated for weeks.
Yeah, they turned the place over to mobs, to criminals, to thugs.
I mean, doesn't that make the police feel loved?
Aren't you going to be loyal to a city that does that to one of your precincts?
Good Lord.
Seattle now offers a $30,000 bonus for officers serving elsewhere who transfer to the city.
As well as a $7,500 signing bonus for new recruits.
They could have saved all that.
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
You want a new career?
If you're a cop in, say, Boise, Idaho or, say, Lincoln, Nebraska, why not get that extra... I'll say.
I'll say.
Sounds good to me.
It says, some departments have revisited long-standing hiring policies that disqualified people for past marijuana use, and they have junked fitness requirements that weeded out otherwise qualified women.
Hmm.
I want the women to be fit.
I want them to meet the physical standards that a man would meet.
John Clare, the police chief of Marion, Virginia, in the state's rural police He says in rural Southwest, his agency has successfully recruited officers in part because of strong support from residents.
It's funny how the police like to serve where they are appreciated.
And rural Virginia?
Probably not very diverse, is my guess.
Now in Clearwater, Florida, Chief Daniel Slaughter said an increase in resignations had been largely offset by an influx of officers from other states.
Many of whom were looking for a more pro-police political climate.
The New York Times fails to mention that Clearwater is 65% white and 10% Hispanic and 12% black.
Also, the New York Times says not one word about how the media savage and slander the police How they always side the criminals, always accuse police of racism, always spit on them as if they were thugs.
That, of course, has got nothing to do with a hiring problem, does it?
No, Mr. Kersey.
Elsewhere, we learn, of course, not from the New York Times, that there have been 87 ambush-style attacks on law enforcement officers so far this year.
87!
That's more than one a week.
And these attacks have resulted in 124 officers being shot, 31 of whom were killed.
I think that might make you a little bit jumpy about the job, too.
And it's all part of this anti-police atmosphere the New York Times has probably taken absolutely the top position in stirring up.
And now they are suddenly noticing it's hard to recruit police officers, Mr. Kersey.
Well, that anti-police atmosphere, Mr. Taylor, is accentuated only because of the anti-white atmosphere and the belief that the police are somehow an extension of what Gregory Hood correctly labeled the ultimate manifestation of conspiracy theorism, white privilege.
That's right.
That's right.
It's all part of the same story.
It all goes back to this insane view of race that our rulers and media chieftains propagate.
Now, I think it was just today or yesterday, Charles Murray tweeted a very interesting graph.
And this showed that for the past decade, 66 to 67 percent of Hispanics identified as white.
That was until 2020.
Then all of a sudden, in 2020, that magic year, Mr. Kersey, Suddenly, the figure of Hispanics who identify as white dropped from 67% to 22%.
What could have caused that?
And then in the very next year, 2021, it dropped to 18%.
Yes, COVID.
That's right.
There, you've got it.
Now, they all claim to be other race not specified or two major races.
Yep, it was all COVID.
I guess that was it.
But St.
George Madness has sent a message to Hispanics.
There's no percentage in being white, is there?
And these days, in the United States Capitol, there's no percentage in being a white man, especially if you're guilty of certain crimes in the eyes of our rulers.
Talk about enslavement, I believe you mean.
So this is a must-read article at the Washington Post.
I encourage all of our listeners, wherever you are around the world, to access this article by going to your Google.
Type it into the Google machine, this headline, this subject line.
Art at Capital honors 141 enslavers and 13 Confederates.
Who are they?
Now when you access this story, you're going to get an interactive chart where you can actually see where all of these Art displays are throughout the Capitol.
So, interestingly enough, the Post examined more than 400 statues, paintings, and other artworks in the U.S.
Capitol.
This is what we found.
Now, again, Mr. Taylor, this is a building that's open to the entire country, the entire public, except on January 6, 2021.
But the point is, What were they actually looking for?
This is not like a clandestine or, you know, trying to be surreptitious.
These paintings have been up for, in some cases, centuries.
So, as part of a year-long investigation into Congress's relationship with slavery, the Washington Post analyzed more than 400 artworks in the U.S.
Capitol building from the crypt to the ceiling of the Capitol Rotunda, which, by the way, is absolutely beautiful, and found that one-third honor enslavers or Confederates.
Another six honor Impossible enslavers.
People whose slave-holding status is in dispute.
I hear you laughing.
You gotta go ahead and go ahead and opine.
Oh, I don't know.
First of all, to call them all enslavers, as if they were running through the jungle with their big butterfly nets, capturing Negro... Good grief.
And they're enslavers.
We used to call them slaveholders or slaveowners.
No, no, now they're enslavers.
I guess every minute of their lives they were enslaving someone.
And then you said, possible enslavers?
Their status is in doubt?
They might, they might not, but boy, they are under suspicion anyway, right?
It's in question right now.
It has not been validated, yes.
Well, but they spent a whole year looking for these people, but they couldn't figure it out.
They couldn't track them down for sure, I guess.
No, they couldn't.
What we do know is that Congress has made some efforts to address the legacy of slavery since the 2020 protests.
That followed the death of George Floyd on that hallowed day in May of 2020.
The 117th Congress, the most diverse in history, established Juneteenth as a national holiday to our everlasting disgrace.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had portraits of speakers who participated in the Confederacy removed.
Florida, unfortunately, replaced a Confederate statue representing the state with one honoring Mary McLeod Bethune.
The first African-American chosen for the National Statuary Hall collection.
She won't be the last, I'm afraid.
No, no.
In fact, the one representing Virginia is on her way.
On her way.
Barbara Johns, I believe, is her name.
We've mentioned her before.
Her greatest achievement in life was to be the librarian of a grade school.
But, be that as it may, this replacement of the Confederate general from Florida, that was under the aegis of Ron DeSantis.
He had, unfortunately, a role in that.
Yes, he did.
To his, as I'll use the term again, an everlasting shame.
What we do know is that Tuesday, this past week, President Biden signed a bill to remove and replace a bust of Supreme Court Justice and enslaver Roger Taney, infamous for the Dred Scott decision denying black people citizenship, with one of Thurgood Marshall, the first African-American justice.
Well, that's what they always do.
They don't replace a bad white man with a good white man.
They replace a bad white man with a good black man or, if at all possible, even an utterly indistinguished good black woman.
There are no benevolent white men in the eyes of our oppressors, Mr. Taylor.
There are no magnanimous white men throughout history unless they're willing to give up their seat of power.
That's the true conclusion of this push to replace white privilege.
Now, there is a silver lining here.
A House effort to remove statues honoring Confederates stalled in the Senate.
One of those Confederate statues stands in the front of the office of the House Majority Whip, currently occupied by Representative James Clyburn, a Democrat of South Carolina, the first black person to serve multiple terms in that role.
Clyburn and several other black members of Congress didn't respond to requests for comment about the art in the Capitol.
Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton, Democrat from D.C., a civil rights activist who's worked in the Capitol for 32 years, called the Confederate statues very anachronistic.
Okay.
Just as government and institutions across the country struggle with complex and contradictory legacies of celebrated historical figures with troubling racial records, So too does any effort to catalog the role of the capital, artwork, subjects, and the institution of slavery.
This analysis, for example, includes at least four enslavers, Benjamin Franklin, John Dickinson, Rufus King, and Bartolome de la Casas, who voluntarily freed the people they enslaved and publicly disavowed slavery while they were living.
Other people, such as Daniel Webster and Samuel Morris, were vocal defenders of slavery but did not themselves enslave people.
Our works honoring them are not counted in the post's tally, so they are thankfully removed from the enslaver or possible enslaver category.
Well, they're always moving the goalposts, as you know.
So even if you never owned a slave, if you defended slavery, you're eventually going to have to go too.
Well, and here's where the article gets to the heart of what it's trying to accomplish.
The Capitol Rotunda, at the heart of the building, is particularly replete with enslavers.
More than two dozen artworks there depict enslavers, from statues on its marble floors and paintings on the walls, to the frisees and murals overhead.
I hope I pronounced that word correct, if I mispronounced that.
They're called freezes.
Oh, horrible.
Yes, in the architecture majors listening, I stand corrected and I apologize profusely.
It also includes the only known depiction of a female enslaver in the building, Mr.
Taylor.
That would be Martha Washington.
She inherited 84 enslaved people from her first husband.
Now here we go.
Some of the artwork reflect the reality that most of the nation's prominent founders were also enslavers.
Hence the importance of the 1619 Prohibition Act.
There are 17 depictions of George Washington.
But there are also 15 depictions of Christopher Columbus, who never set foot in North America.
and enslaved the indigenous people in the Caribbean.
The majority of artworks honor lesser known figures who were deeply involved in the African slave trade, the enslavement of indigenous people, forced plantation labor, and the war fought to preserve slavery.
Two statues portray physicians who experimented on enslaved people.
None of the works are accompanied by any acknowledgement that they're subjects, enslaved people.
Why don't you just put that on the outside of the Capitol building?
A big billboard should say, this August building was built by enslavers or possible enslavers.
And its artwork is replete with enslavers.
Wasn't that the phrase they used?
Replete with enslavers.
Correct.
I don't want to go on and on and on about all the people who were honored.
They have, of course, as you mentioned, to the everlasting disgrace of the Commonwealth of Virginia, they removed the statue of Robert E. Lee to be replaced with just some, as you mentioned, a black female of highly You know, nothing notable.
I mean, you know, it's it's that's just where we are in 2022.
I mean, as you mentioned, and I point people to that article you did about the nation gone mad.
It is hard to think about all the glorious statues that have come down since about 2015 and just the changes that have taken place in America.
I agree.
I agree.
Well, on this same theme, you'll be delighted to know, Mr. Kersey, Congress has approved a bill that will honor Emmett and Mrs. Till, that's to say, his mother, with the Congressional Gold Medal.
Yet another honor given to people who essentially accomplished nothing.
It was passed by voice vote in the House on Wednesday, nearly a year after its unanimous approval in the Senate in January.
Unanimous.
If the measure is signed into law by President Biden, the medal will be presented to the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C.
with a coffin in which Emmett Till was originally buried is on display.
According to latest news accounts, the White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment about whether Mr. Biden planned to sign the bill.
Well, I will issue a comment on his behalf, Mr. Kersey.
He'll sign it.
That's a promise.
In March, Mr. Biden signed a bill named for Emmett Till that made lynching a federal crime punishable by up to 30 years in prison.
Of course, murder has been against the law in every state ever since the United States was established, but now we have a federal anti-lynching law.
Let's see who's the first to be prosecuted under it.
Now, as far as the Congressional Gold Medal is concerned, this is the highest award given to American civilians.
And the first recipient of the gold medal was that wicked enslaver, George Washington.
And then, after that, mostly were military heroes.
People like Horatio Gates, Light Horse Harry Lee, Nathaniel Green, John Paul Jones, but then they branched out.
They started giving it to people who did such things as Be the First to Fly, Orville and Wilbur Wright, and Charles Lindbergh, Thomas Edison got one, and in 1956, All surviving.
All these white men.
Yes.
Oh, it was horrible.
It was just awful.
I said something initially about the only the highest civilian order.
But when I said the highest civilian order, you can be a military man and get it.
But because there are other equally high honors that are given to people for military service.
But and in 1956, it was given to all surviving veterans of the Civil War, both Union and Confederate.
That was back in the days when it was not the style to spit on everything Confederate.
The United States was one nation, it was reconciliation, and so all of the veterans, whether Union or Confederate, were rewarded symbolically with that medal.
Since then, of course, it's gone badly, badly downhill.
Rosa Parks, yet another woman who accomplished almost nothing other than sit down in the back of a bus.
Or maybe it was the front of the bus.
It was the front of the bus in Montgomery, correct.
She sat down in front of the bus.
That was her one accomplishment.
She got the gold medal.
Tony Blair, of all people.
Martin Luther King, of course, got it.
The Tuskegee Airmen got a collective award.
Anwar Sadat, for heaven's sake, why'd he get it?
And then the Chinese-American veterans of World War II.
Now, there is a mighty contribution to goodness, peace, and prosperity.
And, of course, the two black women who did calculations for NASA.
And not to mention the law enforcement agencies that protected the U.S.
Capitol on January 6th.
They didn't do a very good job, did they?
They got the Congressional Gold Medal.
And in March of this year, this is the most recent.
Mr. Kersey, listen to this.
The Congressional Gold Medal was awarded to the all-female, all-black battalion deployed during World War II to sort mail in England and France.
Fancy that!
They sorted mail in England and France.
Now, that's high valor.
Of course, if you're not a unit of black women, it's just doing your job.
Boy, if I were a black woman and they got their award for that, I would just be insulted.
This is absurd.
They sorted male, but they were black and they were women.
They sorted male and the toxic environment of white privilege, Mr. Taylor, so come on, they're not going to feel insulted.
I wish there was some shame in this, but no.
You know, I think every black baby at birth should get a congressional gold medal.
Because they are coming into a world of vicious white supremacy and entrenched, entrenched oppression.
Now, moving on, along the same vein, do you know who Henrietta Lacks was?
Does that name ring any bells with you?
Oh, this is a story that I was hoping we wouldn't have to talk about.
Yes, I am familiar.
She actually has a book written about her, as if her blood is... Yes, she does.
Oh my goodness.
Well, this has to do with the removal of Confederate symbols and monuments.
Since St.
George perished in 2020, an estimated 230 Confederate monuments have been removed all across the United States.
In Roanoke, Virginia, in a plaza previously named for Robert E. Lee, His monument was removed after it was found damaged in July of 2020.
Those are the New York Times' words.
It was found damaged.
Well, gosh, was it struck by a falling meteorite?
Well, the plaza has now been renamed for Henrietta Lacks, and a bronze life-size statue of Lacks will be put up.
Roanoke Hidden Histories, an organization dedicated to acknowledging black history in the community's public spaces, raised more than $183,000 for this project.
I suspect that most of that money came from foundations run by guilty, self-hating white people.
Now, as for Henrietta Lacks, now, since, let's see, she She was born in Roanoke, and this is where it's all going to happen, and she later moved to Baltimore with her husband during the 1940s.
She died from cervical cancer at age 31 in 1951.
I'm very sorry for her.
Just six months before her death and without her knowledge, consent, or compensation, doctors removed a sample of cells from a tumor in her cervix.
They did that and they didn't ask her and they didn't pay her.
The cells taken from Ms.
Lacks behaved differently from other cancer cells.
And then the cell sample went to a researcher at Johns Hopkins University who was trying to find cells that would survive indefinitely so researchers could experiment with them.
And cells derived from that sample have since reproduced, multiplied billions of times, and contributed to countless studies.
So there you go.
That's her contribution.
Now her cells have been useful, But this is the sort of hero black people seem to produce.
She's getting a bronze statue for having achieved what exactly, Mr. Kershaw?
What did she achieve?
She got kids.
I'm sure there are countless individuals of all races who had their selves taken without
their consent or compensation.
Of course!
And that contributed to the advancement of science, the advancement of figuring out ways to deal with not only life-threatening diseases and illnesses.
It is fascinating.
one of the things in the article that I read said that her cells helped bring about the COVID vaccine
which we're beginning to learn through the Twitter files that Mr. Elon Musk is doing so well to
bring to light that maybe these weren't as proficient as we were told. So anyway,
maybe she'll get a posthumous gold medal too.
Why not?
Why not?
The fact is, if there is to be a monument for what happened with her cells, presumably it should be to the doctors and scientists who used those cells to make discoveries.
But, I don't know.
Emmett Till gets a gold medal.
George Floyd will be next.
I thought it was quite fascinating that at that New York Times article, there were no comments allowed.
And here's a comment for you.
Why don't we just paint over the rotunda in the Capitol building and just have George Floyd take the place of George Washington?
Why don't we just have Emmett Till and why don't we have this lady you spoke of and Rosa Parks and countless others?
Whoever the first black pilot was, there's I think a movie out about a naval aviator during the Korean War,
when the same actress from Top Gun, Maverick, is in it.
The Tuskegee Airmen, I mean, come on, this isn't hard.
Just go ahead and be done with the past history of enslavers and possible enslavers and go ahead and
showcase all those glorious melanin-enhanced individuals who thankfully supplanted a
civilization long in need of usurping the blackness.
Meanwhile, Baltimore can't collect its garbage.
Thank you very much.
Yeah, there have been a lot of stories this year, Mr. Taylor, that I think accentuate life in post-white America.
One of those, my favorite of the year, was Jackson, Mississippi, where you didn't even have potable water, you had no water, in a city that is about 80% black, dominated by black elected officials.
Now you have Baltimore, which I believe is nearing three-fourths black, and this story Simply, the subject line was this.
Out of service, all of the city's dumpster trucks break down, causing trash to pile up.
The city's trash trucks are in desperate need of repairs.
Last week, Baltimore's Department of Public Works sent an email to city leaders notifying them that DPW's last standing EZ-Pak truck was out of service.
DPW writing, quote, as a result, all of solid waste trucks used to conduct All of them.
dumpster collects are down." End quote. All of them. All of them. All of them. It's now
causing trash and frustrations to pile up across the city.
The city that reads, I believe is what Baltimore is called. Those impacted include
residents who live or work in condominium communities, public housing,
and local government buildings. Quote, this just got here within I would say
five days, said Rose Mortimer as she pointed to a jam-packed dumpster in a
public housing parking lot.
She says usually the city is good about taking out the trash where she lives, but on Monday her dumpster had dozens of garbage bags overflowing from every angle, a sight for sore eyes and a safety hazard.
Quote, the rats, she said, we're talking about hundreds, hundreds, end quote.
QUOTE, THE MOST BASIC FUNCTION OF A CITY GOVERNMENT IS TO PICK UP THE WEEKLY CURBSIDE COLLECTIONS, AND AS WE KNOW, SINCE THE DIRECTOR, JASON MITCHELL, HAS TAKEN OVER, OVER A YEAR AGO, IT HAS NOT BEEN HAPPENING ROUTINELY AS REQUIRED BY LAW, SAID BALTIMORE CITY COUNCILMAN YITZY SCHEPLER.
COUNCILMAN SCHEPLER CALLED THE CITY'S GARBAGE COLLECTIONS, OR LACK THEREOF, UNACCEPTABLE.
EVEN BEFORE THE LAST TRUCK BROKE DOWN, THE CITY ALREADY ROLLED BACK RECYCLING TO BUY WEEKLY COLLECTIONS.
This individual pointed to DPW's $600 million budget and a new logo.
Gosh, new logos are always going to help rebrand a failed endeavor.
And a new initiative launched earlier this month.
Quote, I mean, it's a complete joke.
Their priorities are out of whack and it's time that this agency be held accountable.
End quote, he said.
In the meantime, it's unclear when or if a contractor will be called in to clean up the city's mess.
The city says that option is still being evaluated.
In the meantime, it's unclear when or if a contractor will be called in to clean up the city's mess while they redid it again.
Hold on one second.
To finish up the story, quote, it's just more of the same incompetence and not planning ahead, said Scheffler.
End quote.
Well, you know what this reminds me of?
There have been announcements by ESCOM.
That is the power company in South Africa that is now run by our African brethren.
And due to deferred maintenance and no maintenance, they announced that there will be power cuts of up to 12 hours a day throughout the country.
Isn't that nice?
Or power energy rationing.
I mean, when you live in a world where it was once fueled by white privilege and then you get to see what happens when black individuals collectively take over all levels of not just the local government, but the bureaucracy, this is what you get.
And it's found in any city in the country, whether it's Flint, Michigan, whether it's New Orleans, whether it's Atlanta, Georgia, whether it's Birmingham, Alabama, Whether it's Jackson, Mississippi, or whether it's Baltimore, Maryland.
You can take away the Confederate statues, by the way, but it doesn't matter.
That doesn't pick up the garbage, no.
And we have a whole country going through exactly the same experiment.
And there is no extra points for people who guess how this experiment ends.
Meanwhile, from an article at a website called Hot Air, The National Institutes of Health now puts barriers to access to the important database of genotypes and phenotypes.
The database is an amazing tool that combines genomes along with phenotypes.
Phenotypes are the observable characteristics of individual people.
And it matches this, phenotypes and genomes, for millions of people.
These phenotypes include education, occupation, health, income, and because the data set connects genes with phenotypes at an individual level, it is absolutely essential for scientists who want to understand genes and the genetic pathways that are behind These physical manifestations.
Now, the NIH has decided to deny scientists access to the data and other related datasets.
Researchers report getting permits denied on the grounds that studying the genetic basis of traits is stigmatizing.
According to one researcher, this happens even if the research has nothing to do with race or sex, but focuses on genetics and education, for example.
Now the author may be a bit naive here because education is very often used as a proxy for intelligence, be that as it may.
The NIH has collected these data and has chosen to hide them, violating one of the basic principles of modern science.
It does so because it fears that somebody might discover facts that undermine the currently accepted ideological commitments of the people at the top.
Hot air asks, what does this all mean?
You already know what it means.
Not only can you not trust the people who say trust the science, you can trust the actual science itself less and less.
What is published is ever less reliable because it must accord with ideology.
And this reminds me of a story we covered a week or two ago about archaeology.
The people who are doing real serious archaeology are doing it anonymously, online, away from the universities, because you have exactly the same obligatory conformity to orthodoxy.
The difference here, of course, is that NIH has these data and refuses to make them available.
Government collects data and then says, no, no, no, we will release it only to people who are going to draw the right conclusions from them.
Pathetic.
You know, it's funny, Mr. Taylor, as you're talking, and we're talking about one of the figures who's emerged as potentially someone who's going to do some amazing work in 2023.
Now, I don't think you're back on Twitter yet, but Elon Musk just tweeted this out, and it kind of goes along with what you just said.
It's this amazing meme, and it's this goofy guy saying, it's dangerous to believe anything blindly.
And then another character goes, but the science is settled.
And then the other character who said this goes, That's not how science works.
And then the individual who's, you know, the non-player character says, you're a racist.
There you go.
Freelance.
And it's gotten 12.3 million views.
And I know that our listeners are, everybody around the country, around the world just wants that white pill.
I think the fact that the richest man on the planet who's seen his company, one of his companies, Tesla, drop 72% its stock valuation in 2022, he's out there tweeting these kind of memes, and he's out there putting his personal fortune, and it reminds me of those founding fathers who long ago did the same thing to the British Empire on this continent, and they put their life's fortune and sacred honor on the on the pedestal and said, hey, this is for our posterity.
And that's why I believe we are in just unprecedented times in a lot of ways, because I was
supposed to. But I would like to think that Elon Musk thinks in terms of his sacred honor. But I'm yet
to be convinced. We shall see.
We'll see. Yes. Now, I'm leaning toward I'm leaning toward.
Yes.
Very good. Well, I'm optimistic for 2023. Now, you, because you know, everything must know who
Donovan Mitchell is. I.
I didn't know who he was, but for those who are equally ignorant, he is a professional basketball player, and he does not suffer from melanemia.
He was beloved during his time with the Utah Jazz, but apparently he did not like living in Utah.
Now he plays for a Cleveland basketball team, and he says this about his time in Utah.
To be able to not see many of us in the crowd.
I tried my best to make sure I invited young black and brown kids to the game to be around the community.
But just to not see us there.
It was definitely tough.
Being in Cleveland now, you see us.
Courtside.
It's just refreshing.
It's a blessing to be back around people that look like me.
Well, Donovan Mitchell, I know just how you feel.
It's like going to Estonia.
For me.
But the difference is, you can say it, but I'm not supposed to.
Meanwhile, in the It's a Black Thing You Wouldn't Understand category of stories, you probably know, and I'm sure you do, and many of our listeners do, that Kia and Hyundai vehicles are being stolen at a great clip these days because of a TikTok video that showed you how to use a USB cable to hotwire them.
Well, Demisha Coleman, She is a St.
Louis person and she looks just like a Demisha.
She approached a Hyundai at a St.
Louis speedy gas station and she said that she went to the gas station to recover her Hyundai which had been stolen.
She had no prior criminal history but it looks as though she will have one now because she opened the car door with her gun raised and started blazing away.
She shot and killed Darius Jackson, age 19, and Joseph Farrer, age 49.
Police found Farrer next to a gas pump with a gunshot to the torso.
Jackson was on the ground next to the car, also shot.
A third man got a gunshot to the head, but he survived.
Well, Demisha is clearly a pretty dangerous lady not to be crossed.
Of course, that's not the way you're supposed to be handling things, but I can sympathize to some degree with the frustration of having your car stolen, especially in this era of brazen, absolutely brazen criminality.
And I have a feeling that as 2023 comes upon us, that the melanin enhanced will be doing more and more of this sort of thing.
Just a guess.
But it's already pretty common among drug gang members.
They do not count on the police for justice.
They do it themselves.
And I'm beginning to suspect that we'll see more of this kind of thing.
Steal my car and I'll shoot you.
Have you had your car stolen?
No, no, I've never had a car stolen.
Have you?
No, but the way you set that story up, where you said you had sympathy, it sounded like you had an amazing anecdote to regale us with.
No, no, I'm sympathetic for that.
I drive a 28-year-old Toyota.
No one would steal it.
That's my protection against car theft, and it works like a charm.
Didn't you tell me one time that you left your keys on the top of your car when you went to Giant, and you came back, and there was a $20 bill that said, use this towards your next car, and the keys are still there?
No, that's not my story.
You got that from somebody else.
Okay.
Now, I believe you have yet another one of these fake racism stories, of which we seem to get so many these days.
This was actually from the military newspaper.
This was a great story.
I've had it for a few weeks.
I've been meaning to bring it up, but I thought this would be a good one to remind everyone that the more things change, the more they stay the same.
It's about to be 2023, but we're going to get a lot of these next year.
I can assure you that.
Airmen faked a racist text claiming he was denied special duty.
investigation finds. An airman at Luke Air Force Base in Arizona is facing punishment
under the Uniform Code of Military Justice after an investigation showed he faked racist
texts claiming he was denied a special duty assignment. The alleged texts between airmen
at the base were shared in May on the popular Air Force AMN, NCO, SNCO Facebook page, where
service members often go to vent and share insider information.
The exchange quickly went viral and days later the service said it was investigating the incident.
Five months after the screenshots were shared, Luke Air Force Base spokesman Sean Clements said the investigation showed the messages were fake.
Quote, the 56th Fighter Wing has concluded its investigation into reports that an airman was denied a special duty assignment by their supervisor based upon their demographic identity, Clements told Military.com in an emailed statement.
Quote, following an exhaustive investigation, Authorities determined that the statements published did not occur and the text messages were fake.
Recall what I said only a few seconds ago.
A five-month investigation into what were utterly innocuous Facebook posts, anonymous ones, about so-called racist text.
Screenshots of the faked messages posted May 4th to the Facebook page alleged to show a conversation between a black airman and a white superior regarding a special duty assignment.
Special duty assignments are a grueling but important job, such as being a recruiter or drill instructor that requires service members to volunteer and be vetted.
They often look good for promotion.
Being a recruiter is a grueling job?
Or a drill instructor.
But this is the important part of the sentence.
Okay, but I guess if you're going to be a recruiter for the police department, maybe that'd be a grueling job, but okay.
That's special.
Hardship pay.
Hardship pay for being a recruiter.
Okay.
Maybe in Seattle, Washington, but not in places like Athens, Georgia or Auburn, Alabama.
So this is an important line right here.
They often look good for promotions in a non-commissioned officer's career and can lead to bonus pay.
So why would this guy be upset?
Oh, I'm sorry.
Never mind.
Retract that.
Quote, we won't be sending your name up for redacted at the squadron, the superior message said.
When pressed why the black airman was being denied the opportunity, the airman said, quote, we personally do not feel as if you're a good choice for the squadron.
You currently have You currently have a shaving waiver, which isn't a professional image, and I think the Air Force is looking for someone of white complexion and with the image that the Air Force needs, end quote.
The service member who the base says faked the exchange and who was not named is facing UCMJ punishment, Clements told Military.com.
He did not comment any further on the incident, adding, quote, the airman can still appeal his punishment, end quote.
Does it say what the punishment will be?
It does not say what the punishment's going to be.
Well, this is interesting.
Usually, when they cook something up like this, it would be using the N-word or nasty slurs, but this is an exchange that is not entirely inconceivable.
I mean, I would be very, very surprised if a white superior would say to a subordinate, no, we can't give you that assignment because we want to project a certain image, and a black person with a beard just doesn't do the job.
But this is really rather subtle compared to the usual fake hate crime.
Would you not agree?
I would agree, because at the end of the story, the article, the author of this article actually brings up a very important incident that took place back in 2017, where this story states, the investigation of the fake message is reminiscent of a 2017 incident at the Air Force Academy Preparatory School, where racial slurs were written on the dormitory whiteboards of five African-American cadet candidates.
The school later revealed that during its investigation, one of the cadet candidates allegedly targeted by the racist remarks was actually responsible for the act.
The Colorado Springs Gazette reported the time, but that didn't stop the school from, I believe, shutting down, not just the Preparatory School, but the Air Force Academy itself, and all white students were basically forced into a struggle session where they were told that this is, you know, white privilege, white supremacy, you know, this is nothing more than trying to reinforce, you know, heat islands, whatever other word we want to talk about.
You know, are you guys all possible enslavers?
The Commandant of the Air Force Academy gathered everybody together and berated them in the most contemptuous terms about white supremacy and wickedness.
Did he get up and apologize when it turned out it was a hoax?
I never heard of that happening.
No.
So I think he actually got an award from the ADL, if memory serves correct, for his fight against hate and injustice and bigotry, even though it was imaginary.
Well, you see, if you are in the fight against imaginary hate, it can go on forever, because you will never conquer imaginary hate.
So these people are in jobs for the rest of their lives.
And here's another job that will last you the rest of your life, Mr. Kersey, and that's fighting Alzheimer's in black people, because they are twice as likely as white people to get Alzheimer's.
Hispanics are about one and a half times more likely.
And why is that?
Well, entrenched systemic racism.
That's what we hear from the Department of Health and Human Services in its 2022 update on how to fight the disease.
That's how you fight Alzheimer's.
Inequities include underinvestment in education systems, less walkable communities, decreased access to nutritious food, barriers to health access, and low quality of care.
Now, let's look at these.
Underinvestment in education systems.
A bad high school gives you Alzheimer's.
Less walkable communities.
Having to ride the bicycle to the grocery store, that gives you Alzheimer's.
Decreased access to nutritious food.
Well, that might, but why is there no nutritious food?
It's because there's no demand for it.
Good gosh!
Look at all of these.
Well, your government says, That all of this gives black people Alzheimer's and your government is always right.
So there you go.
Under-investment education, less walkable communities, not enough nutritious food.
Well, the Health and Human Services goes on to say, this requires addressing SDOH.
Now that is an acronym that I bet you don't know.
That stands for... I don't.
That stands for Social Determinants of Health.
That's a new word for racism.
And other forms of discrimination must be prioritized.
S-D-O-H.
That's yet another word for what you and I are unconsciously doing to black and brown people.
S-D-O-H and other forms of discrimination must be prioritized rather than focusing on individual behavior.
So it makes no difference what they do individually.
That's not the point, Mr. Kersey.
You and I are the problem.
The social determinants of health.
And you and I determine those social determinants of health just because of the impure thoughts we're having all the time.
Let's see.
We haven't got too much time.
I think we've got enough time to fly to Rwanda.
Did you know the British government's plan to deport migrants to Rwanda is lawful?
The British High Court has so ruled.
The court ruled just this Monday that the scheme did not breach the UN's Refugee Convention on Human Rights.
Home Secretary Suella Braverman, she's that Indian-British woman who I think sounds pretty good.
She says great stuff.
Now, whether she does great stuff, we will see.
She said it's committed to making the Rwanda policy work.
As you know, the idea was to get these illegal immigrants, put them on a plane to Rwanda, and then they can live happily ever after.
Now, Labor's shadow Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, she suffers from melanemia.
She called the policy unworkable, extortionate and deeply damaging.
She wants them all to stay.
I'm sure she will just set aside all the bedrooms in her house for these people who should be in Rwanda.
Former Home Secretary Preeti Patel, That another Indian who was a Home Secretary who also said great things, and I think she really tried her best to accomplish great things, she announced the government's plan to deport some people to Rwanda back in April.
Now, the first deportation flight that was due to take off in June 14th was grounded after a series of objections from lawyers, from asylum seekers.
Rishi Sunak, yet another Indian who is now Prime Minister of Britain, Said he welcomed the High Court ruling, calling it a common sense position that was supported by the vast majority of the British public.
Well, I disagree.
I don't think it's a common sense solution at all.
Flying them all the way to Africa?
For heaven's sake, send them back where they came from.
Wouldn't that be a whole lot cheaper, a whole lot easier?
And no, I don't support it, but I'm not part of the British public.
Alison Thewlis, the Scottish National Party's Home Affairs spokesman, called the Rwanda plan deeply immoral.
Of course, the Scots don't take any of these immigrants themselves.
They don't take any of these people that need to be deported.
You know, the Scottish National Party, it's a strange thing.
I don't know why these independence movements are so full of absolutely wide-eyed, open-eyed, empty-headed, crazy liberals.
It was the same with the Barcelona independence people in Spain.
I just don't get it.
Scotland, Scotland should be for the Scots.
Isn't that why they're seeking independence?
And yet they seem to be some of the most absolutely avid proponents of replacing themselves as rapidly as possible.
Crazy stuff.
Same thing with the Irish.
Yes, yes, exactly.
The Irish have the same idea.
The Irish apparently practically have open borders.
And what used to be the green and lucky Ireland is going to become less and less green and more and more unlucky.
Well, you know, we have not much time.
Let's see if we have, let's see, I think we had a British, another British story here.
And that was that one million civil service days a year are wasted on equality and diversity training.
And your report has found one million.
Research by Conservative Way Forward, a Tory think tank, says this cost the taxpayers about 150 million pounds a year.
Furthermore, and this is equally shocking, public sector organizations have hired and employed 10,000 members of staff to deal with equality, diversity, and inclusivity.
10,000 people in the public sector.
These roles set the taxpayer back 427 million pounds a year.
And the average EDI, Equality, Diversity and Inclusivity employee, makes more money than an average nurse.
British taxpayers face the highest tax burden since the Second World War, but millions of pounds in public purse are being spent on what this think tank calls damaging and politically motivated activities.
Of course, the money that's spent on this rubbish is the least of the problems.
You can imagine all the sorts of outrageous things that poor white people are being told.
The think tank's research is based on an audit of government accounts and freedom of information requests to 6,000 public bodies.
That's hard work, Mr. Kersey.
Think about that.
Sending FOI requests to 6,000 public bodies?
Now, of course, billions are spent on diversity initiatives by what the British call quangos.
Quangos, that stands for quasi-non-governmental organization.
Quasi-non-governmental organization, the word was invented by America in 1967, but the British loved that.
I guess you could call the SPLC and some of these other idiot organizations that get a lot of government money, they're quangos in the United States.
But billions, billions are spent on diversity initiatives, including contributions to a campaign on unlearning whiteness by the publicly funded British Arts Councils.
Unlearning whiteness.
Did you learn whiteness, Mr. Kersey?
I was born in it.
I was bred in it.
That's my feeling, too.
I was born white.
I mean, gosh, I don't think I learned whiteness.
It just happened to me.
It just fell from the sky.
Now, there are 397 local councils across the UK.
They employ That's the total number of local councils and they have an average of more of, let's see, of almost two of these diversity staff members between them, 794 in all.
So I think it's great that at least the British have a think tank that's looking into this stuff, looking very carefully into all of these astonishing expenditures on utterly useless and in many cases damaging activities.
So our time has run out, Mr. Kersey.
And as usual, we'd love to hear from our listeners, and if our listeners would like to contact Mr. Kersey directly, how should they do it?
Really simple.
Go to your email, whatever you use as your email provider, and type in to becausewelivehereatprotonmail.com.
Once again, that email address is becausewelivehereatprotonmail.com, or you can reach out to Mr. Taylor at amran.com.
