Will Trump Indictments Tear the Country Apart?

Time Text
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and this is August 15th, Year of Our Lord 2023.
With me, of course, is my indispensable co-host, none other than Paul Kersey.
And I believe we would like to start with some listener comments.
I think they've been particularly good this time.
One writer says, it's perhaps not even worth correcting, but on the August 2nd podcast, Mr. Taylor quoted Muhammad Ali as saying, I can't wait until tomorrow because I get better looking every day.
Ali may have said that, but that was the title of a 1969 autobiography of football player Joe Namath.
Our listener says, that jumped out at me because I used to sell books and I had a copy of that title in my store.
So, just like the building of America, a black person should not get credit for something a white person did.
You know, that's just the kind of comment I like.
I got something wrong.
Somebody corrected it and did it in a really clever and amusing way.
So, thank you very much, listener.
That's great.
Here's another correction.
I must have really messed up, Mr. Kersey.
Maybe you noticed, maybe you didn't, but our listeners sure did.
Last week, you talked about the last Minneapolis officer to be convicted in the George Floyd case, Toe Tao.
You said he was a rookie officer.
He was not.
According to the verdict, he was an experienced Minneapolis police officer with almost a decade of experience.
I was incorrect.
It was Alexander Kung and Thomas Lane who were the rookies.
Here's another comment.
Mr. Taylor mentioned the Hopi and the Mohicans last week in the context of peoples who are facing the consequences of dispossession.
I do not think that any Mohicans are struggling financially.
Because the per capita income from the Mohican Sun Casino and Resort is $28,000.
This means that a Mohican couple with two children gets $112,000 a year without having to do anything.
The Pequots do even better.
They get $100,000 for each adult from the Foxwoods Casino and Resort, which means that a Pequot couple with two children gets $200,000 a year for doing nothing.
Not a bad gig if you can get it.
Not a bad gig.
Wow.
Yes.
This is reparations to Native Americans, I suppose.
Now, this is quite interesting.
The Mohicans and the Pequots of today have only trace amounts of Native American ancestry and had not lived together as communities and did not meet the requirements to be recognized as Native American nations.
However, there was enough enthusiasm to get the casinos built, and there were enough votes in Congress to override President Reagan's veto to recognize them as Native American nations.
Isn't that something?
So now we have the Mohican and Pequot nations and the Mohican Sun and Foxwoods casinos and results.
So, you know, I wonder if the demand for the casinos, that probably came from the surrounding community as much as it did from the Indians themselves.
And lo and behold, these are probably utterly indistinguishable people from ordinary white Americans.
But, you know, they got themselves a little bit of Mohican blood, Pequot blood, and they can just sit on their fannies and cash those checks.
Now, another comment.
This is the kind of thing that you would know all about, Mr. Kersey, you being the sports follower, unlike myself.
I would like to call your attention to the results of a survey of the top high school recruits for college football teams.
Of the top 250, just have a guess as to what percent are black?
The top 250 high school recruits going into college football teams.
Yeah, well, these are high school seniors, juniors.
I did see the email, so I know, but if you look at the big programs, I think you'd probably say about 80 to 85 percent.
Well, this says 89.6%.
90%.
Essentially 90%.
So, I don't know, in the case of that age population, I would guess maybe 15-20% of that population is black, unlike the national population, which is about 13-14%.
But still, they are, you get, let's say it's 20%, they are filling 90% of the recruits to college teams.
Of the top recruits.
Of the top recruits.
Exactly.
The top 250 recruits.
No, and just from a maturation standpoint, Mr. Taylor, I think you, a few weeks ago, we found out the sad passing of Richard Lynn.
I think when you understand that black males mature faster than other races, and also a lot of these programs get some of these big Polynesian Samoan kids out west.
These aren't Samoans.
These aren't Samoans.
These are all black.
The remaining 10% are white and Samoan and who knows what all that is.
But wow, that is an overwhelming difference.
Another comment.
An African living in Canada sends us his harrowing tale of racism he suffered recently.
He says, about two months ago, I was jogging in my neighborhood when a black car kept trailing me.
Boy, shades of Ahmaud Arbery, huh?
The driver was quite insistent, even going so far as to flag other pedestrians down, who in turn finally ran up to me and directed my attention to the car.
It turned out I had dropped my Ontario health card while I was jogging, and this middle-aged white lady had left her friends at a nearby coffee shop, picked up my health card with my picture on it.
That means she knew exactly what I looked like, an unsmiling black male with an unpronounceable African name.
She got into her car and chased after me until she could return it.
And she didn't even ask for reparations.
So that is our racism story for the week.
This guy, this is a black guy.
He's an African.
He lives in Canada.
We correspond quite frequently.
He's a very smart guy.
He's got very interesting observations about all kinds of things we talk about.
And this is the kind of horrible racism he faces on a daily basis.
So there you go.
Now, do you think that would be that a similar type anecdote would be given to us?
Had that been in Monrovia, Liberia or Port-au-Prince, Haiti?
You mean if a white had been doing the jogging and lost?
No, no.
If he had been in an all black environment.
Oh, oh, oh, I see.
I see.
Well, we don't wish to impute malevolence to Haitians and Liberians, but no, I just found this particularly interesting.
Now, you know, we're not really, this is not really our beat, but this new indictment of Donald Trump, I really feel as though I've got to mention this, even if briefly.
Which one?
Yeah, this most recent one.
The phone call to the Georgia Republicans, find me more votes, you know, that one.
98 page indictment, including racketeering charges, conspiracy to commit forgery and perjury.
And Trump's got 13 counts, and the defendants include former Trump lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, his chief of staff, Martin Meadows, and also former members of the Trump legal team, including John Eastman, Kenneth Chesebrough, Jenna Ellis, Robert Cheney, and Sidney Powell.
Sidney Powell is the only one I remember.
She was out a lady.
She'd had all this kind of impressive background.
And so she's on the hook for RICO charge now.
And that black prosecutor, she wants to go on trial in the next six months.
Now, just to remind our listeners of the other cases that are outstanding, there's that overturning the election in 2020, that includes a conspiracy to defraud the United States, obstruction of an official proceeding, and other serious criminal charges.
Then, the other federal case, the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, They got a trial date set for May 20th, 2024.
Boy, that's right, right in the middle of campaigns.
Then, number four, the business records falsification.
That was the payment to Stormy Daniels.
That has been elevated through all kind of legal ledger demand into a felony case.
That's supposed to start, that trial starts March 25th, 2024.
March 20, March 25.
He's got to be in two different places.
Then he's got these civil suits.
That Trump committed fraud by inflating his net worth by billions of dollars.
Trial date?
October 2nd, 2023.
And then here's another 2024.
January 15th.
This is the E. Jean Carroll defamation case.
This was this alleged sexual encounter in a Macy's department store, was it?
In the changing room, for heaven's sake.
But all I can't help thinking is this.
We have got a kind of total system breakdown here.
Trump's defenders are going to think this is all kangaroo court stuff.
I frankly haven't studied these cases.
I don't know.
I don't know if there's a real case in any of them, but it's so utterly unseemly for the Democrats to take the obvious front runner, opposition candidate, and throw all this stuff at him.
And BBC had a Trump hater on this morning talking about all this.
And the BBC guy said, incredibly, with all of these indictments, his support among his supporters continues to grow.
How can that be?
Well, idiot, it's because these people don't trust the government one bit.
They don't trust it at all.
This is, whether or not these are legitimate cases, this is the ultimate form of Trump derangement system.
These guys are prepared to drive half the population into open psychological rebellion at any rate and into a total, total loss of faith in the system just to satisfy their hatred of this man and anyone who voted for him and anyone who represented him in court.
One of these cases is going to stick.
That guy's going to jail for the rest of his life.
I think it is absolutely inevitable at this point.
Uh, he can pardon himself on federal charges, but not this Georgia charge.
And in Fulton County, Fulton County is full of blacks.
Is he going to get a, even a hung jury?
No chance.
This guy, this guy is going to go to jail and he's going to die in jail.
I'm afraid.
For our listeners who don't know, that is where Atlanta is situated.
And it is, I believe, barely majority black, but the, this, the, the, the County government is just completely populated.
Yes.
By ensconced blackness in every department, whether it's the water board, it doesn't matter.
They've got a black sheriff, I believe, who's ready to post the picture once Mr. Trump has to surrender himself in the next couple of days.
He's licking his chop.
He's licking his chops.
I'm going to post that mugshot.
Wow.
And again, you know, I don't want to say that all of these charges are No, you're not wrong.
But it just looks so ridiculous to so many people.
Trump has this capacity to make people believe in him no matter what, no matter how.
And these people are going to turn into radicals in a way that makes QAnon look like a Boy
Scout jamboree.
That's, uh, who knows?
Maybe I'm wrong about that.
What, what, what's your, just briefly, what's your sense of this?
You're not wrong.
And I think you have to look at what's happened in Brazil, where the Bolsonaro who got 49%
of the vote, he's basically been ostracized for life from running for office again.
Look at the situation with the, oh, what's the, what's the, I hate using the word far right because they're just normal Germans who are standing up for Germany.
Alternative for Deutschland?
Alternative, yeah, where they're actually talking about being banned for democracy.
And I think this is a moment where the person that they're going after is setting the stage
for a real individual to come along and to truly be the person who says, enough.
We saw the way you treated Trump.
Yeah.
This is a kind of societal division, a lack of faith in the system.
There are going to be millions of people out there who say, I don't care.
I don't care what the evidence is.
You people, you people have gone crazy.
And this is a misuse of the American system.
The Constitution doesn't mean anything to you people.
And they're just going to check out psychologically.
They're just going to consider themselves Americans anymore.
I don't think there's ever been a situation quite like this.
Even the secession crisis.
It was along regional lines, sectional lines as they called it in those days.
It didn't have to do with what I think is going to be an absolutely wholesale rejection of just the system itself.
And we're not going to talk about it, we'll talk about it next week because I'm actually working on a piece for VDARE, Mr. Taylor, about what's happening with the American right and Charlie Kirk's His, his, his youth organization, forgive me, I can't believe I'm blanking on the name of it right now.
Turning Point USA.
Turning Point USA, which started off as sort of this milquetoast, uh, right, uh, you know, right of center, uh, coalition of students across the country.
He's now talking about the type of stuff that we were talking about six, seven years ago.
The mainstreaming of racialism at an, at an implicit level.
Mr. Taylor, I believe that what's happened with Trump, as you see, Let's be blunt.
Bragg in Manhattan, the D.A.
there, the D.A.
in Fulton County, there is a commonality.
Letitia James, don't forget, the one about inflating the asset values.
All three of them are black.
All three of them are, I don't know if they're solar supported, but they are hopped up super liberals.
And the judge that he is, his trial is going before, is Chutkan.
Chutkan, that's the armed insurrection charge.
She is this absolute hanging judge from immigrant from Jamaica.
Yeah.
Wow.
This is, this is going to open some people's eyes.
They're going to wonder what century is this?
What country am I living in?
But anyway, You know, I didn't want to get too distracted on this, but this is just such big news and is such a joke to the American way of life in some important way.
Vernon, I'm sorry, the guy on CNN back in November 2016 called Donald Trump's election the white lash.
I think we're now seeing the black lash against that.
But at the same time, more and more people, as you've noted, are just seeing this system that they believed in, seeing this flag.
And even that country song, Mr. Taylor, the rich man north of Richmond, I think that's the title.
There's something out there that it's palpable.
And I think that the right candidate who comes along, right now it's still Trump, because his numbers continue to go up.
The outpouring of love that what we saw in Iowa this past weekend, it was extraordinary.
People feel as if people are beginning to realize that what Ramon Robinson wrote about back in the 1960s, 70s about a dispossessed majority, we're now seeing what happens when that dispossession occurs.
I don't know.
I've never been quite as, you know, some people are licking their chops about this.
Okay, the system's got to come falling down around our ears for anything to get better.
And boy, if this doesn't bring it falling down around our ears, I don't know what will.
But who knows how this is going to turn out.
Sometimes better, sometimes worse is not better.
Sometimes worse is just plain worse.
But I don't see how this can end up in any kind of I don't know.
Friendly reconciliation.
We've got two forces heading towards each other at breakneck speed.
There's no off ramp.
Everybody has got the pedal to the metal.
And while I really do think there's no way this guy isn't going to jail with all of these charges, all these charges against him.
And so here you've got the guy, the top guy.
Is he going to be campaigning from a jail cell?
Is he going to be campaigning from the courtroom?
I mean, even one of these charges, you've got to spend hours and hours and hours every day with lawyers going through documents and deciding how to craft your case.
And he's got all of these things.
The trial dates are set right in the run up to the election and campaign season.
This is something that America has never seen.
I don't think the world has ever seen anything quite like this.
I didn't want to talk about this even as long as this, but let's talk about country music, since you brought it up.
Let's do it!
Here is a National Public Radio piece on country music, and it talks about this very guy you just mentioned.
It blamed the success of American country music on racism.
Of course.
Here they got a podcast called How Racism Became a Marketing Tool for Country Music.
And the host, good Greek, the host is Brittany Luce.
She asks how country music became this symbol of racism.
Those are her very words.
Why country music stars remain popular despite artists who currently lead the charts peddling racist rhetoric today.
Is racism really what it takes to make country music number one, she asks.
And, of course, she's talking about Jason Aldean's number one hit, Try That in a Small Town.
And, of course, everybody immediately said racism, racism, racism, for suggesting that these riots and all of this 2020 stuff wouldn't be tolerated in some small town.
Amanda Martinez, a country music historian.
Did you realize there are country music historians at UNC Chapel Hill named Amanda Martinez?
Boy, would she listen to country music when she was a child?
She says the song is calling for a suppression of those calling for greater freedom.
What the heck?
And then according to NPR, the song is racist because it condemns these deadly uprisings brought about by Black Lives Matter under what they call the righteous banner of social justice.
And here says Martinez, country music historian, I think we're continuing to see conservatives kind of hold up country music as supposedly morally superior to an alternative youth-oriented black popular music.
Well, heck yes!
Morally superior?
Wow!
You remember all these things.
Rap music is full of the worst sort of obscenities.
Do you remember Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallions?
They had a song called WAP.
I'm not even going to tell you on this program what WAP stood for.
That was the top of the charts for at least four years.
It stands for White American Protestant, right?
Yeah, yeah.
And to somehow think that country music fans think that country music is a little bit more morally superior to this kind of music that celebrates nothing more than fornication, shooting your enemies, making money, just expressed in the crudest possible terms, well, yes, it is morally superior.
And just in June of 2020, NPR published a list of rap songs that it deemed significant not only to black history, but they claim lift music itself.
All of music itself, that includes Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, country music, you name it, folk music.
Vivaldi, yeah.
Yeah, it lifts music itself and represents the spirit of resistance against racial injustice.
50 rap songs that lifted all of the music ever created by human beings in the world.
Boy, oh boy.
I'd like to listen to some of these.
I wonder if they managed to find any that didn't include at least 25 iterations of the F word, but in any case.
Yeah, as an adjective, as a noun, as a verb.
It's funny, one quick anecdote for you.
I remember I grew up in the suburbs of Fulton County, of Atlanta, and I remember I got invited to a sleepover.
And obviously a bunch of white kids and they wanted to watch this movie called Friday, which unfortunately has had such a pronounced negative impact on On white youth across the country.
It's set in Compton and it's about an average Friday in the ghetto And I remember just being repulsed by it.
Like I called my mom and I said, hey, hey mommy What come get me like I don't I don't want to be here anymore Like we're watching this for you that celebrates and and and venerates this just culture that you know obviously These massive suburbs and the white flight communities abandoned and wanted to go away from and I think that's one of the more I think there's a kind of voyeurism involved there.
These white kids who know that all of this stuff is really repulsive behavior, but they're, they're, they're fascinated by people.
When you're a teenager, you are attracted by rule breaking to a certain degree.
And they're looking at these people, boy, are they breaking the rules?
They are just smashing them to smithereens.
But then to consider that a model of any kind?
To me, rap music is best defined as poison distilled into sound.
That's what it is for me.
Cyanide for the ears.
That's a good way of putting it.
Anyway, I think I probably ought to talk a little bit about the American Renaissance Conference.
We've got a big write-up of how it went on the website, and people can look at that if they wish.
But I really would like to talk about what an absolutely stupendous program it was.
I think it was one of the best yet, and I'm not alone.
It was the 20th anniversary, by the way.
Well, it was the, not the 20th anniversary, it was the 20th American Renaissance Conference.
That's what I meant to say.
Yes.
We, our first one was in 1994.
We haven't had them every year.
And then we had a skip or two for COVID and all that kind of thing.
But yes, our 20th American Renaissance Conference.
And they've tried every possible way to shut us down.
Well, we ain't being shut down.
But we had, we had really great talks.
I'll just be very brief about some things that I thought were really outstanding.
James, James Edwards of the Political Accessible Radio Program, I thought he gave a great talk.
I've heard him give several talks.
I thought he gave his very best.
And some of these Europeans, Ruben Kallup, he is an Estonian.
He's got a really sort of poetic and inspiring, romantic view of racial identity.
He gave a wonderful talk.
But, you know, the real highlight The one that people are going to be talking about for a long time to come was by a young Fleming.
He is a Belgian who has been in the Belgian Senate.
His name is Dries van Langenhove.
This is the first speech he ever gave in his life in English.
And he had people roaring their approval.
One guy came up to me right after he finished speaking.
He says, that's the best speech I ever heard in my life.
In my life.
Wow.
And of course, Gregory Hood gave a great speech.
I did my best.
And then Sam Dixon, as usual, gives a wonderful talk.
And to me, there was a real seriousness about the conference.
We are facing these terrible crises.
What do we do about it?
What is our mentality?
What sort of loyalty, if any, do we owe to any of this, even the remnants of the United States?
But anyway, you were not there, Mr. Kersey.
You missed a wonderful conference.
And I will say no more about it, because this is not really the place to toot our own horn.
And those who are interested, go to amren.com, and it is the first feature on the slider.
So welcome anyone who wishes to come and sign up for next year, when the time comes.
Will these videos be available to the public soon?
Yes, they sure will.
They sure will.
And Dries van Langenhove, you'll see just what kind of force of nature this guy is.
Furthermore, we, for the first time, have the good sense to announce next year's Ameren Conference at the end of this year's.
It's going to be November 15th of 2024.
Put that on your calendar.
After the election, right?
Yes, after the election.
We'll have a lot to talk about.
If, you know, the country hasn't completely fallen apart and there isn't an election, but I can imagine anything at this point.
Maybe then there'd be a true renaissance.
Wow.
Anyways, I do want to ask and put a bow on the country music conversation.
What did you think of a Real Virginians song, The Richman North of Richmond, considering the fact that the New Century Foundation is headquartered north of Richmond?
Well, you know, some really foolish people thought that he was talking about all northerners.
Of course, he's talking about Washington, D.C.
He's criticizing these rich men north of Richmond.
I mean, it's a nice way to talk about Washington, D.C.
He's certainly not talking about Maine and New Hampshire.
No, he's not.
No, that's just so absurd.
And I think by now probably a lot of our listeners have had a chance to watch the video, listen to the music, and it is a sign, the fact that that is number one, a song of such Dissent of such lack of trust, of such dissatisfaction, an assertion that the American dream is turning into a nightmare.
The fact that that's number one, that is as significant in its own way as this jihad against Donald Trump.
Anyway, we've got so many stories to cover.
We get distracted on things, Mr. Kersey.
I did want to talk about Navy spies.
Oh yes!
Two US Navy sailors have been arrested, accused of sending classified military information to a Chinese official.
One was a 22-year-old sailor assigned to the amphibious assault ship USS Essex, based in San Diego.
Well, it turns out that the sailor, who is a machinist mate, began communicating with Chinese intelligence, to whom he sent photos and videos of the Essex.
Disclose the location of various U.S.
Navy ships where they are.
Describe the defensive weapons on the Essex in exchange for a few thousand dollars.
Now this guy alleged, allegedly, he sent him 30 technical and mechanical manuals.
These things are super secret.
And he sent all sorts of pictures of military equipment.
Well, two months later, He sent 26 more technical and mechanical manuals relating to the power structure.
All of this is critical technology.
Then there was another sailor.
He sent the same Chinese intelligence officer controlled operational plans for a large-scale U.S.
military exercise in the Indo-Pacific region, which explained the specific location and timings of naval force movements, amphibious landings, maritime operations, logistical information.
Just think if it had been for real!
This guy might have been sending the same information too!
And he also photographed electric diagrams, blueprints for radar systems.
Wow!
Surprise, surprise.
What are the names of these spies?
One was Jingchao Wei, and the other is Wenheng Zhao.
Those are, those are, those are quintessential American names straight off, straight off of that boat that landed at Plymouth Rock.
That's right.
That's right.
But are you, you know, the FBI has been criticized any time it has ever paid the slightest extra attention to any kind of Chinese sailors, people with security clearances, In my book, White Identity, it's almost boring, the long number of cases that I gathered of Chinese who do this.
Some of them don't even want to get paid.
They're doing this for the fatherland.
And what if, what if the naval force movements, amphibious landings, all this had to do with a real shoot and war in Taiwan?
Can we count on these Chinese sailors to be loyal?
Can we count on the American officials to be loyal to America?
We're at this point where there's such a disconnect between those who run the country and those who pay the bills to make sure the country's fun.
What is a Chinese naval?
And I hate to say that, but what is, what is your reason at this point?
What's he going to care about America?
What Americans, so many Americans seem to despise their own country or despise their own people.
What does loyalty to the United States even mean at this point?
Especially if your name is Jin Chao Wei or Wen Chang Zhao.
Anyway.
I think you've got a story about a black man who wanted to kill a white officer.
That's a really jolly little story.
It is a jolly story, but I want to give you one white pill.
Things come in threes, Mr. Taylor, and I believe that we will see another country song that will probably go more viral than the Jason Aldean and this other guy from Virginia.
I just think there's something out there right now, and if you just look at social media, the way people are promoting this stuff and the way people are reacting to this, it's like, okay, somebody's going to try and do a song.
That's, you know, what will it be?
And I just feel like this Trump indictment, hey, it could be as silly as it sounds.
It could be something like a kid rock that comes out with the song that really unites.
Cause I go back, I think you've written about this or someone at American Renaissance has, but every, and I'm not saying this is a revolution, so don't, don't misquote me anyone.
But what was the, uh, what was the country that was under Bolshevik communist rule?
Uh, Estonia.
And it was the singing revolution.
Oh, yeah.
All three, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, all of them had a singing revolution.
They all sort of sung their way to freedom.
Well, that would be nice.
I really wished I could write a song, some lyrics.
I've even sort of toyed with the idea, jotted a few ideas around, but probably mine would be a little bit too explicit.
Mine would be clearly racially oriented.
Maybe that's what's needed right now.
I'm sure you just piqued the ears of a lot of our listeners, not just in America, but around the world.
But tell us about this black man and his ambition to kill a white police officer.
Yeah, so this is out of Cincinnati, and this is one of those stories that hasn't gotten much follow-up from the local press, but we'll talk about it.
It's a man indicted in an attack on an officer.
Prosecutor says he wanted to kill a white cop.
Now a man was indicted, this is about two Wednesdays ago, so this is like the last week of July.
2023 on charges he tried to kill a Cincinnati police officer, beating him with the officer's own baton and taser, and trying to gouge the officer's eyes out.
Brandon Claiborne, 34, is charged with attempted murder, aggravated assault, and felonious assault.
Prosecutors say Claiborne, who is black, wanted to kill a white police officer.
Now, Prosecutor Melissa Powers said Officer Terry McGuffey, Suffered serious physical harm.
Powers issued a statement Wednesday about what happened.
He responded to a call on July 23rd at Sawyer Point for a report of a suspicious person.
She says this, Officer McGuffey engaged in a brief conversation with Claiborne before Claiborne struck McGuffey in the face and wrestled him to the ground.
He grabbed McGuffey's taser and baton and used them to strike the officer.
He attempted to gouge the officer's eyes out with his thumbs.
He's being held on a $1 million bond at the Hamilton County Justice Center.
Uh, and she said, of course, no person should have to fight for their life while viciously, while being viciously attacked by another.
This includes our law enforcement officers.
Well, I should think so.
Yeah, I guess I haven't looked up... Nice of her to include law enforcement officers, yeah.
I haven't looked up to see if Teresa Fettige, who is the police chief, if she's melanin enhanced, one of our, as you might have put it a few years ago before I said, stop doing that, dusky brethren, maybe need to bring that back considering what's going on out there.
But I mean, this is just one of those stories.
You think about what happened.
This is what Michael Brown tried to do to Darren Wilson.
Exactly.
Exactly.
And this kind of story gets no play at all.
But this is the real-life context in which white police officers operate.
And it makes them just a little bit jumpy.
Is that a surprise?
But the fact that these stories get completely played down, in fact totally ignored by the mainstream media, this is obviously part of the problem.
By the way, the police chief is your typical Uh, it's, it's, it's a, it's a elderly white female who looks like a substitute teacher, an elderly white woman, an elderly white woman who looks like a substitute teacher.
Well, I'm sure she's just a great law enforcement officer.
Well, let's, uh, in Chicago, this is another one of these really heartbreaking stories That there's a group called Native Sons in Chicago's Rogers Park neighborhood, and it is asking, it's pleading with gang members to promise to cease fire between 9 a.m.
and 9 p.m.
every day so people don't get killed going about their day-to-day activities.
Hold your fire until the nighttime, boys.
The push for the ceasefire is being called the People's Ordinance.
And Native Son's co-founder is a woman, interestingly enough, Tatiana Atkins.
We ask that people stop associating with and glorifying shooters.
Stop glorifying switches.
I don't even know what a switch is.
And stop wearing those ski masks everywhere, which perpetuates you as some op.
I don't understand practically a word this woman's saying.
What's an op?
What is glorifying switches?
When those who live a certain lifestyle try to hang with regular class citizens, they put everyone at risk.
So I guess she wants them all to sort of cordon themselves off and carefully shoot each other and only at night.
But she goes on to say five-year-olds are being killed, 14-year-olds, 78-year-olds, pregnant women are being killed, young boys with bright futures.
Fathers are being killed and this shouldn't be happening.
And she hopes That gang members will pay heed and adopt a ceasefire and that parents will react by making sure they have their children home and indoors by 9 p.m.
Well, you know, again, this is heartbreaking.
They're living in this astonishing environment and they're trying anything, even just getting out and begging the gangbangers to please, please hold your fire until at least nine o'clock when our children are at home.
Of course, 23 people were shot over the weekend in Chicago.
Over 370 people have been killed in Chicago thus far in 2023.
And they're all in pretty concentrated areas.
So they know, they see the problem around them all the time.
And the authorities aren't doing what needs to be done.
No El Salvador for Chicago like there should be.
Anyway, well, Mr. Kersey, I believe somebody has figured out why it is that black people shoot each other.
This is one of those stories that I'd like to actually read the study, and I will, because it just came out.
I want to say Counterpunch had this, which used to be a website that I read back in the days of the folly of the Iraq and Afghanistan invasion.
There was very good stuff when the left actually was anti-war and against American imperialism.
But this is one that I was like, wow, what is this article?
Racial segregation, gun violence, and black communities.
That's the headline.
Let's check this out.
This is from an organization called, if you would excuse me one moment while I scroll up, the Center for Economic and Policy Research.
What distinguishes the U.S.
from other rich countries is not freedom, but firearms.
No other rich country has a firearm homicide rate.
I think every last one of them was.
as the United States.
As if to emphasize this point, over last month's 4th of July holiday weekend, there were at
least 17 mass shootings, which left 18 people dead and 102 people injured.
Mr. Taylor, I believe we talked about a number of those.
I believe there was one distinguishing factor uniting all of those shootings from across
the United States, and that was they were almost all involving a black shooter.
I think every last one of them was.
I believe so.
So while mass shootings receive the most national attention, it's important to be aware the
has at least four different gun violence crises occurring at the same time.
For this discussion, interpersonal gun violence will refer to shootings associated with street crime and interpersonal conflicts, including intimate partner gun violence.
Interpersonal gun violence causes more deaths and injuries than mass shootings, and then goes on to talk about The number of mass shootings for July 4th, but there were hundreds of interpersonal shootings that same weekend.
It's a complicated issue.
Yeah, I guess by that they just mean ordinary, uh, I don't know.
Well, even when gangbangers shoot each other, if they hit only two guys or kill only two guys, then that's not a mass shooting.
So I'm not sure that's a useful distinction, but be that as it may.
So they then go on to write, the author of this piece, whose name is?
Algernon Austin.
Flowers for Algernon.
Did you ever read that story?
Never did.
Never did.
Okay.
He is melanin enhanced.
He goes on to write this.
Gun violence is a complicated issue with multiple causes.
Interpersonal gun violence has disproportionately harmful impact on black people.
Previously, the Center for Economic and Policy Research illustrated the relationship of gun violence to poverty and economic hardship.
The figure illustrates the relationship between gun violence, victimization among black people, and racial segregation.
He goes on to say the data is for 42 states for which the public health researcher Anita Novpoff and her colleagues were able to obtain black firearm homicide rates and segregation measures.
So I'm actually looking forward to looking at that at some point soon.
More segregated states, Mr. Taylor.
And our listeners tend to have higher black firearm homicide rates.
Wait, this is by state?
They're studying this by state?
Oh, good grief.
As if you look at the segregation in a particular state and compare it to another one, as if everything else is the same.
What a pathetic approach.
Gee, I thought they had some sort of controls on this.
No, no, no, no.
The control is white supremacy, white privilege, and shade equity.
More segregated states tend to have higher black firearm homicide rates.
More in-depth analysis show that the relationship between segregation and violence holds even with controls for poverty and other measures of economic hardship.
Residential segregation facilitates, concentrates, and amplifies multiple forms of social and economic disadvantage in black communities, which then creates the conditions for a higher rate of interpersonal violence.
Translation.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You put black people together and they, and they shoot each other.
Yeah, well it's our fault.
An absence, a paucity of whiteness necessitates black individuals engaging in, what's the term they use?
Interpersonal violence at a rate that is not only discernible but causes said poverty.
There are numerous facets.
Mr. Kersey, the solution is very clear.
Spread these black people around so they shoot white people too.
That's obviously.
Yes, integration is the solution.
That is what we know the Obama and Biden administration want to do with affirmatively furthering fair housing.
But let's just end on this last paragraph.
There are numerous facets to the gun violence problem in the United States.
No, there really isn't.
Sorry, Powell, there really isn't, Algernon.
But he says this, quote, one component is the high degree of social and economic marginalization of many in the black population.
A strong commitment to improving the material economic circumstances of black people would lead to less interpersonal gun violence, i.e.
give us the equity in your home, white people.
Well, you know, it would be, it would be an interesting experiment if San Francisco wants every black to get $5 million.
Well, if you had, you couldn't afford a very large sample, but say you had comparable groups, comparable groups of ghetto blacks, and you gave say a hundred of them $5 million each, and a hundred of them you don't give them $5 million each.
It would be kind of an interesting thing to see what the crime record, what the employment record would be for those for those different groups.
I can imagine how these things might turn out.
But anyway, that will never happen.
At least I hope it will never happen.
I think you could look at and juxtapose how lottery winners go bankrupt if they happen to be a certain racial, a member of a certain racial group, or seeing the percentage of black athletes who are professional athletes in the NFL, Major League Baseball, or NBA who go bankrupt.
Yes, but do they end up, do these people who win the lottery, do they end up shooting people?
See, this is the issue that we're talking about here.
Agreed, agreed.
Interpersonal violence.
But anyway, let's move on to my favorite mayor these days.
My favorite mayor.
Mayor Eric Adams.
Melanin supercharged Eric Adams.
He issued yet another dire warning to President Biden for the 36th time predicting that the migrant crisis would eventually decimate the Big Apple if more federal money doesn't come mighty fast.
New York City is the economic engine of this state and this country, Adams said.
If you decimate this city, you're going to decimate the foundations.
There's a lot of blame to go around.
Well, isn't that an interesting idea?
That's another way of saying, give me, give me, give me, give me, give me money.
Now, Biden has promised no extra money and pledged no added assistance.
The projected cost for caring of these tens of thousands of so-called asylum seekers could potentially set the Big Apple back a staggering $12 billion.
Since last spring, the city has welcomed, they called it welcomed.
I don't think they were very happy.
They have put up with roughly 100,000 migrants.
More than half, 57,000, are still getting free room and board.
And, have a guess, you can probably come pretty close to this.
The city is currently spending an average of how much per night to provide shelter, food, and other care to each immigrant family?
How much per night?
We know that per year it's well over a billion.
I don't remember the exact amount, but I would imagine it's seven to nine billion?
Well, no, no, no, no.
For one night, for one night, how much does it cost to house and feed an immigrant family?
Oh, just, oh, one family.
Oh, yeah.
$1,500.
Well, not that bad.
They're more efficient than you thought.
$1,500. Well, not that bad. They're more efficient than you thought
$383 a night.
$383 a night Well, of course that that is nice in Manhattan. That's a
hot that's a hundred and a hundred thirty eight thousand dollars a year
Just to keep them off the streets and not from going hungry The median salary in the United States is fifty four
thousand dollars and you got to pay taxes on that and we're splashing out
$138,000 a year on these freeloaders Now City Hall says a daily tab for doing this every day
nine point eight million dollars now And that runs to, apparently, $3.6 billion every year.
That's what I thought you were initially asking me.
That's why I was trying to do the back of the napkin math.
I'm like, I think that's between $7 and $9 million per day to get to that.
Yeah, $9.8 million a day.
I mean, New York City has got a big budget and a lot of money, but I think $3.6 billion annually could be used on something just a little bit more productive and useful.
Maybe trying to teach people to learn.
Who knows?
In any case, Governor Hochul and state lawmakers agreed earlier this year to pick up $1 billion of what was then estimated to be a $4 billion price tag.
Why does the state, why does the rest of the state, got to pay all this money?
And the other thing is, you know, remember Eric Adams has been trying to offload these so-called migrants.
He wants to kick them up upstate, he wants to send them off to Long Island, wherever they could possibly go.
And doesn't he realize that they're bad for New York City, they're bad for other places?
And the other thing is he wants all this federal tax money.
Where does that come from?
That comes from ordinary Americans, ordinary Americans, too.
I find it astonishing that Eric Adams, after his 36th attempt to complain to Joe Biden national money, hasn't it dawned on him that the way to solve this is to stop him from coming in?
That this is apparently that is just an unthinkable thought for this guy.
Well, I applaud this because again, I think that as more and more people in Illinois have contempt for Chicago and as more and more people in New York and New York have contempt for New York City.
Uh, we want this, we want there to be, I mean, again, it goes back to the whole message, the Richmond North of Richmond, you know, the Richmond South of Albany, the Richmond South of Rochester, you know, but again, again, if.
The only thing you accomplish by sending these frauds to New York City is for New York City to scream and holler for more federal money.
You have not really solved the problem.
You're just trying to shove the problem around.
But I believe at the same time, there have to be millions of Americans who hear this and say, wait a minute, wait a minute, just stop them coming in.
But maybe I'm wrong.
Well, They're spreading the wealth, of course, and this is a story about Long Island.
A once-trendy four-star hotel in Long Island is at the center of a heated debate as it transforms into a shelter for illegal migrants.
Four-star hotel?
It was called the Collective Paper Factory Hotel.
Odd name.
It's industrial chic, aesthetic, loft-style rooms.
It was once a paper factory in a prominent fixture in a Queens neighborhood.
It's now been turned into a Department of Homeless Services shelter for families.
Well, not everybody's happy.
It began as 16 families moved in.
Just 16.
And plans are underway to house a total of 125 families in this former hotel.
At, I guess, about $400 a night.
The building, which boasts amenities like a gym, Meeting rooms, a bar, and a restaurant has now taken on a new role.
Local residents are expressing their concerns.
One resident, who wished to remain anonymous, voiced his frustration about the apparent lack of regulations and background checks.
There's already littering, and it's only 16 families.
Cans, Coca-Cola bottles, and it's just one day later, he says.
What are the regulations for bringing them here?
Are there background checks?
He goes on to say, it makes me nervous.
We don't want the whole block to become a hangout spot because they just hang out on the street.
And there are only 16 families, there are going to be 125 more.
Michael Cohen, owner of a nearby 85 unit rent stabilized apartment.
He says, doing this contradicts the neighborhood's development efforts over the past 15 years to try to improve the place.
Substantial financial investments into this place.
He says this use of this building is taking the neighborhood in exactly the wrong direction, given all the time, energy, zoning changes, and financial investments we put into it.
Listen to this.
The average one bedroom rental in Long Island City, which is where this is, is $4,000.
$4,000 a month for one bedroom.
And then the average condo in the neighborhood sold for almost a million dollars.
And this is where they are inflicting these people on Long Island.
So the fact is, of course, as you mentioned, affirmatively furthering fair housing, the Biden administration wants to have all of this kind of happiness throughout the country.
All this changing of zoning laws.
Did you know that the new buzzword now is inclusionary zoning?
Inclusionary zoning.
Didn't know that.
Yeah.
And what HUD is going to do, they say they are going to modify the preferences of Americans.
Americans have these racist preferences.
For calm, green, and crime-free areas where the schools are good, where people don't litter, where there are no bums on the street.
Now, HUD is going to modify those preferences.
And Biden's race is working full-time to make this happen.
Well, speaking of modifying preferences, I believe you had a story that the San Francisco federal workers, they're being told to modify their preferences as to where they work.
Yeah, just as Just as Twitter or X, you know, is looking to get all of the, you know, business out of San Francisco, I think we know one of the reasons why all those stores, Mr. Taylor, are shuttering all those retail stores, all the videos we see.
This story comes to us courtesy of Zero Hedge, one of my favorite websites.
Federal workers in San Francisco told to walk from home due to safety concerns.
Federal workers, the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building.
Let me start that one more time.
Federal workers at the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building in San Francisco have reportedly been told to work from home for the foreseeable future due to safety concerns, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
And they're not talking about potholes in the streets and pieces falling off the buildings.
What are the safety concerns we're worried about here?
We'll get to that.
I just want a few of the buzzwords that I just gave from that initial sentence.
The Nancy Pelosi Federal Building.
This is not Dirty Harry San Francisco.
The federal building, located in the corner of the 7th and Mission Streets, is home to agencies that include the U.S.
Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Labor, Department of Transportation, And also the office of Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi.
According to the newspaper, an official with the Department of Health and Human Services issued the work-from-home advisory in a memo earlier this month.
Here's what it says.
Obviously, in light of the conditions at the Federal Building, we recommend employees maximize use of telework for the foreseeable future.
This recommendation should extend to all Region 9 employees.
Including those not currently utilizing telework flexibilities.
Now, here's where we get in the nitty-gritty, Mr. Taylor.
The area around the Federal Building is a regular spot for drug dealers and users to congregate.
Open-air drug markets operate brazenly in the neighborhoods near the Federal Building.
I'm sorry.
Give me one second.
My eye, my context just completely went out.
Open-air drug markets operate brazenly in the neighborhoods near the Federal Building.
With the Tenderloin and Soma districts regarded as the epicenter of the city's fentanyl crisis.
Now, if you live in an area where there's a fentanyl crisis in your city, I think it's about time that you relocate to an area where fentanyl is not a crisis.
That's just my opinion.
Well, they can't up the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building and airlift it to the middle of Iowa, can they?
They'll give them that idea.
They might try and do it.
The area around the federal building regularly sees dealers, quote, operating in shifts as users smoke, snort, or shoot up their recent purchases.
The property's concrete benches are an especially popular site for users to get high, socialize, or pass out.
It's not known if other tenants of the building are implementing a similar policy.
KRON4 reached out to Speaker Pelosi's office and received the following response, quote, The safety of workers in a federal building has always been a priority for Speaker Pelosi, whether in the building or on their commutes.
Federal, state, and local law enforcement, in coordination with public health officials and stakeholders, are working hard to address the acute crisis of fentanyl trafficking and related violence in certain areas of the city, end quote.
Well, so here, the city is so dangerous.
The federal government is saying, fellows, don't even come to work.
It's too dangerous.
Telework.
No, I mean, you live at a time where there's, again, I don't know if there's been a video on americarenaissance.com about what's happened in El Salvador.
You know who the criminals are.
And in our country, we criminalize those who notice.
There's one more story I want to fit in here.
You remember Gibson's.
That was that small family store and bakery that had been part of the Oberlin community since 1885.
Oh yeah, yeah.
Oberlin, where they have that just super left of university.
Despite that long association, the store became the focus of a campaign led by college officials after three black students were arrested for shoplifting.
That was back in 2016.
I remember that.
The arrests, yes.
The arrests sparked this huge campaign calling the store racist.
But the police found clear evidence of shoplifting.
And they pointed out that over a period of five years, 40 people had been arrested for shoplifting at Gibson's Bakery.
Only six were black.
So this was nothing targeted.
They arrest white people, too, if they're shoplifting.
They arrest overwhelmingly white people.
Yes, they arrest you if you shoplift.
That was back in the days when that was still possible.
Nevertheless, the local, let's see, but the local prosecutors caved in.
to the pressure and cut a plea deal to reduce the charge to attempted theft.
But a local judge said, baloney!
These people were not attempted.
They walked out of the store with bottles of wine.
That was sure enough theft.
And then there was a series of protests and permanent economic sanctions against the store.
And ultimately all three students pleaded guilty.
But There were protest after protest.
Dean of Students, Meredith Raimondo, joined the protest, handing out flowers, denouncing the bakery as racist.
And when somebody pointed out the students had played guilty, admitted they were guilty, the Special Assistant to the President, Tita Reed, who also took part in the protest, wrote that that didn't change a damn thing.
Racist anyway.
Well, this is a great thing.
A jury in June of 2019 awarded Gibson's $44 million in compensatory and punitive damages.
A judge later reduced that award to $25 million.
Still a nice piece of change.
But the college continued to drag this out and appeal and appeal in what was essentially revenge litigation.
And with interest and everything else, the damages are now $36 million.
Well, guess what?
The insurance company, they did have insurance, litigation insurance.
They had a maximum cap of $75 million on litigation for compensation from the insurance company.
Their insurers only gave them a million.
They said, look, you are doing this deliberately.
This obviously was something bad that you all did.
We're going to offer you a million dollars because we like you, but you're on the hook for the rest.
Now, this is great news.
Oberlin is suing its insurers.
So they're going to spend yet more money.
What you're saying is they can't admit that they were wrong.
They had to continue to double down.
They had to continue to put all the chips in.
These three black kids did nothing wrong.
Right.
It's just incredible.
I hope they're going to end up on the hook for millions and millions of dollars.
And the insurers are going to tell them, jump in the lake.
And they're still spending more money.
Anyway, that to me is almost, it's a bad news story, but it's a good news story.
Another good news story is North Carolina, the University of North Carolina has agreed to do everything to comply with the latest SCOTUS because they said, we spent 37 million dollars on this.
We were wrong!
I'm afraid we are coming to the end of the road here, Mr. Kersey, as we so often do, sooner than we would wish.
And really, I love the comments we had.
The comments for this program were great.
I make mistakes.
I want my mistakes corrected.
I plead with my listeners.
You can even just listen to the program just to see if Jared Taylor makes a mistake.
I want to hear about it.
And the way to reach us is at amred.com, at the Contact Us page, or Simply send me the email, ladies and gentlemen, because we live here at Protonmail.com.
Once again, all one word, because we live here at Protonmail.com.
And you're also going to then, once you send us an email, you'll then start receiving the weekly news digest that the New Century Foundation team puts together.
