	Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to Radio Renaissance.
	I'm your host, Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
	And with me is my indispensable co-host, none other than Paul Kersey.
	And today is November 30th, Anno Domini, 2023.
	And we'll start with comments from listeners.
	Last week, Mr. Kersey, you and I talked about Tyler Perry, the black filmmaker.
	And I confessed that despite the man has been so successful that he's a billionaire, I'd never seen a single one of his movies.
	And I believe you confessed the same.
	I didn't confess.
	I made a very, uh, you know, obvious, uh, objective point that yes, I've never sought out seeing one of his movies.
	So.
	Well, you know, we have, we have a listener who says you spoke of Tyler Perry expressing interest in investigating some of his movies.
	I reached out to a friend from Florida who I know is a fan of the Madea franchise.
	She is white, but she has some family who are black.
	She recommended Madea's Big Happy Family.
	Well, Mr. Kersey, I do have a confession.
	Madea's Witness Protection 2012 and Madea Goes to Jail 2009 as her personal favorites.
	Well, Mr. Kersey, I do have a confession. Last week I watched a Tyler Perry movie.
	I watched a Madea movie.
	Now, this is a much more recent one, sort of a made-for-TV thing, and perhaps it wasn't quite the epic quality of Madea's Big Happy Family and Madea's Witness Protection, or Madea Goes to Jail.
	But I must say, it was funny.
	It made me laugh.
	And it's not particularly anti-white.
	If it's anti-white, it's also anti-black.
	It just sort of pokes fun at everyone.
	Oh, what's the guy, Spike Lee.
	Spike Lee criticized Tyler Perry's movies as coonery buffoonery.
	Yes, he did.
	And there's some truth to that.
	It's just making fun of everybody.
	But it's quite harmless stuff.
	The only thing that really struck me as, well, Really, really different from what you would find in American comedy or white comedy would be there's really broad sexual innuendo.
	I mean, it's not even innuendo, the kind of crude sexual appeal, but no, no nudity or anything like that.
	But the conversation is very sexually oriented in a way that I think wouldn't go over among white audiences.
	But it's a kind of cultural anthropology to see what so interests and excites black viewers, especially black women apparently love this stuff.
	So yes, my horizons were broadened last week, and I watched a Tyler Perry Madea series.
	And I confess, I laughed out loud.
	So all you listeners, if you're interested in expanding your horizons, give it a try.
	You too.
	You too, Mr. Kersey.
	You know what?
	With Christmas approaching, if he has a Christmas film in the Medea sense, I will watch it.
	Okay.
	Okay.
	And you don't have to watch more than one, and you don't even have to watch more than half of it if you don't want to.
	You get the idea in about 15 minutes.
	But my wife and I, we watched all the way to the end, and do not regret it.
	Here is another comment.
	In your most recent podcast, you stated how you love to be corrected.
	Well, I tolerate being corrected.
	I ask to be corrected.
	I don't love to have to be corrected.
	He says, well, much to your delight.
	I have a correction for you, says our listener.
	I'm afraid your age may be catching up with you.
	That's a low blow.
	But you erroneously said Jill Clinton when you obviously meant to say Hillary Clinton.
	I'm surprised that your sharp young co-host, Mr. Kersey, didn't correct you with that steel trap brain of his.
	Oh boy.
	Wow.
	I don't remember you saying that.
	Well, I don't remember my saying it either, but our listeners never lie, right?
	And I think you would have corrected me also with that steel trap brain of yours.
	Boy, you have an admirer, Mr. Kersey.
	Thank you.
	And here is another comment.
	A listener sent in, oh, it's not a, it's not so much a comment as a listener wrote in and he sent a very high definition set of videos from the Mars Reconnaissance Rovers.
	I'd never seen these before.
	I'd never even heard about these.
	I knew that they were roving around and taking pictures, but these are such high definition.
	They pan across the Mars surface.
	You really feel like you're on another planet.
	Just remarkable stuff.
	And he added in a Radio Renaissance tone of voice that the rovers that took these videos are called Opportunity, Curiosity, and Perseverance.
	He goes on to say, the next Rovers will no doubt be called Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
	But at watching these, it really made me think.
	It really made me wonder what we could do in outer space and science in general if we didn't spend so much money, so many resources on layabouts and competence and criminals and losers here on Earth.
	I really recommend it.
	It's not hard to find these high-definition videos from Mars.
	Really take a look at them.
	Our listeners, and on YouTube, you'll find them in no trouble at all.
	They're really very inspiring.
	Quick 20-second antidote for you.
	In the 1980s, Russia, the Soviet Union, actually landed on Venus and has pictures that they transmitted back from Venus, which you can seek out and find on the Internet.
	I did not know this until a couple days ago, and they're extraordinary as well.
	Obviously, there's no high-def video.
	It's just these very eerie videos, and to think that Yeah, in the 1980s, the Soviet Union, one of their last big missions was to go and land successfully on Venus and take pictures.
	Well, you know, we are so obsessed with dealing with the bottom end of the bell curve, dealing with these really unproductive people.
	We just don't have the energy, psychological energy or the resources to really move forward in an inspiring way.
	It's really a sad thing.
	These occasional glimpses of what we could do are quite inspiring and also very sobering.
	Our final comment.
	A friend who is a real estate agent in Northern Virginia works in a large office with many other realtors.
	A dot Indian real estate agent had been working with a Guatemalan to buy a house.
	The Amerindian, the Guatemalan, decided not to buy and backed out within the allotted time and was due his earnest money.
	That's the first deposit you make on a purchase.
	The details had been explained to him, including the fact that it takes some time to get the money back.
	But that afternoon, the Guatemalan showed up at the office.
	He was certain that the Indian realtor had just stolen his earnest money.
	He was furious, refused to leave, and had to be escorted out by the police.
	Afterwards, the American, the white realtors, were rattled and shocked.
	They'd just never seen anything like this.
	The South Asians in the office were largely unruffled and unaffected.
	And our listener writes in to say, I think this is because this kind of conflict is much more common in South Asia and Central America because of such widespread corruption.
	They're used to this kind of thing.
	Whites are accustomed to dealing with other whites who are honest.
	But now we are forced to witness the clash of tribes from these low-trust, dangerous societies here in our own communities.
	Freedom of association could not be more important for whites.
	I thought that was a very, very interesting observation about the kinds of things that are now part of our lives that never would have been part of them 50 years ago.
	Yeah, and one of those, Mr. Taylor, I know it's not in our agenda to talk about, but have you seen the images coming out of last night's lighting of the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center and what all happened?
	Uh-oh.
	No, I can imagine.
	I can imagine.
	Massive protest by Palestinian, by pro-Hamas individuals waving the flag.
	It almost looked like a foreign country, almost looked like some of the Christmas markets that we saw back in, what was it, 2016?
	Or I'm sorry, New Year's in Germany, where you had just Just the consequences of open borders, mass immigration, and a people who have nothing in common with not just the fabric of our country, our values, or the core religion, and the social capital that once made it possible for America to flourish.
	Yeah, so lighting of a Christmas tree becomes an opportunity not for peace on Earth, but for more conflict, more thrusting forward their particular secular demands.
	No, it's awful.
	But let's see.
	That is actually a good introduction to this first item here, which is going to be a little bit lengthy and has to do with Ireland.
	Here was the news early last Thursday from the BBC.
	It says Irish police have arrested 34 people after rioting by a hooligan faction that caused chaos in Dublin.
	Violence flared after three children and a school care assistant were injured in a knife attack.
	The TSAC, that is the Irish Prime Minister, Leo Varadkar, a homosexual and of Indian origin, by the way, but never mind that.
	He said about 500 people are involved in the riot.
	They are criminals who are filled with hate, he said.
	They love violence.
	I guess he's had long heart-to-heart conversations with every one of them, and he knows each of them personally, so he can say this about them.
	He said they brought shame on Ireland, and he promised new laws within weeks to bring them to justice.
	Well, as it turned out, five people were stabbed right outside a primary school, including a five-year-old girl and a school care assistant who used her body as a shield to protect children.
	And just hours after the stabbings, there were rioters that destroyed 11 police vehicles and badly damaged 13 shops.
	A couple of buses and a tram were destroyed.
	There were several police officers injured.
	And according to the BBC, there were false claims that the attacker was a foreign national.
	Well, and the BBC was on to say, sources have indicated the man suspected of carrying out the attack is an Irish citizen.
	And the BBC is worried that, oh, there's been real concern that something like this could happen.
	The far right in the Republic of Ireland has grown and become incredibly emboldened, recently holding a protest outside the Irish Parliament.
	Mr. Kersey, can you believe that?
	The nerve of these people who don't want to be replaced holding a demonstration in front of the Irish, pro-Irish Parliament.
	My gosh.
	My gosh.
	What, what, what upstarts.
	And the, let's see, the fire service said one of the first calls that our truck responded to after the stabbing was a petrol bombing of a refugee center.
	Well, this, of course, is outrageous.
	Well, the BBC News just a few hours later, they added a piquant detail.
	The person of interest in today's stabbing incident in central Dublin is understood to be Algerian.
	However, sources also stressed that this is only a working assumption, which may be yet changed based on analysis of documentation.
	Boy, what does that mean?
	He might be from Morocco or Tunisia or Syria and that make it okay?
	I doubt that he's from County Cork.
	But in any case, the BBC was fawning all over itself trying to conceal the fact that yes, this guy was an Algerian, this guy was an outsider, an immigrant, and he's going around stabbing children.
	And boy, it's just it's even worse.
	It's even worse that white people be angry about that.
	Now, I have heard In a roundabout way from an eyewitness to the riots that the people who were looting shops and setting fire to things, some of them did not look at all Irish.
	But there is no question there were a group of white people who were furious about this and wanted to make their fury known.
	Now, there's been a new development, I think, a very interesting one.
	Conor McGregor, he's one of the professional athletes of whom I was actually aware before he entered into this story.
	He's, he retired from a very successful MMA cage fighting career.
	But according to the BBC, he is one of a large number of people who are being investigated by Gardai.
	Gardai, that is the Irish word for the police force, for alleged incitements to hatred in relation to the riots.
	There have been no arrests yet.
	However, says a spokesman, there are a lot more people than he who are being investigated for allegedly inciting those riots, including plenty of those who might be described as ordinary members of the public who are not previously known to guard I. Now, isn't that terrifying, Mr. Kersey?
	These are ordinary people, ordinary people who just want to keep their own country.
	Those are the most terrifying of all.
	Then it goes on to say, the MMA star launched an attack on allowing immigrants to vote.
	And he went on to say, Ireland, we are at war.
	Do not let any Irish property be taken over unannounced.
	Evaporate said property.
	This is war.
	And when the riots were in full flow last Thursday, he wrote, I don't care about President Higgins statement.
	Higgins is at least, not so far as we know, a homosexual or an Indian, but he is the worst sort of wuss when it comes to flooding the country with immigrants, despite the fact that his actual brother was, I believe, in one of the Ulster Defense Regiments, one of the guys who had really prepared to fight and die for an independent Ireland.
	He's a complete set out.
	He says, I don't care about Vrodkar's statements or the Garda Commissioner's statements.
	Announce our plan of action.
	I'm still quoting Greg McConnell here.
	We are waiting for you.
	Your statements of nothing are absolutely worthless for solving this problem.
	We need to fix this right away."
	So, then he later posted a photo of vehicles on fire downtown, and he said, what would Daniel O'Connor say, I wonder?
	Now, Daniel O'Connor was a 19th century nationalist leader of Irish Catholics against British rule.
	He himself did not encourage violence, but he warned that unless the British
	listened to Irish demands, there would be violence.
	And McGregor also criticized the rioters who may have looted stores.
	But I'm very pleased to say that we have this very prominent, famous, and well-beloved Irish
	athlete who is taking the side of this opposition to the Great Replacement.
	And of course, in the aftermath of the riots, Foreign Minister of Ireland Michael Martin
	criticized comments from Conor McGregor as absolutely disgraceful, essentially inciting
	Well, Mr. Kersey, that's the world in which we live.
	People want to keep their own country, they are disgraceful and inciting hate.
	And that people want to give the country away out from under their feet, those people are the heroes and the darlings of the media.
	And there's a little bit of a tag end to this story, because meanwhile in France, according to news sources, nighttime protests over the past few days by, and they call them ultra-right militants, chanting Islam out of Europe, have been fanned by last week's rioting in Dublin, a French intelligence source said.
	The demonstrations are in protest against a fatal November 19 stabbing of a teenager.
	These are, we're being told, this is an attempt by the far right to convince the French public that immigration is the cause of the crime.
	What an idea!
	What a terrible hoax these people are trying to perpetrate on the French people!
	The far-right politicians framed the murder of the teenager named Thomas in the southeastern village of Crepeau as an attack on France and what France represents, as witnesses alleged that the assailants were of Arab origin.
	Well, I looked into this.
	I looked up some of the French accounts of this, and yes, a group of about 15 Arabs showed up at an annual village festival.
	This is a small town, Crepeau.
	And they told some of the villagers they were there to kill white people.
	Yeah, they did.
	Yes.
	The French expression was one that I wasn't familiar with.
	It is planté des blancs.
	And it is a word, the planté is the verb, and it means literally to kill with a knife.
	We are going to skewer some white people.
	But this is, of course, being all hushed up, and the fact that the French are angry about this showing up by the hundreds.
	In any case, nine people have been arrested in connection with the killing.
	But on Monday, just this week's Monday, hundreds marched in Lyon, in Rennes, and Grenoble, and about 100 people marched in the southern town of Romand-sur-Isère, right in the neighborhood of one of the alleged killers.
	I think that's great.
	Get them where they live and tell them this is absolutely unacceptable and we have noticed and we know where you live.
	A French intelligence source said there was a will among far-right activists to be, quote, as good as the Irish.
	Videos of the Dublin riots were shared highlighting what they said was the assailant's Algerian origin and hailing the reaction of the Irish far-right.
	Bravo to the resistance, one message read.
	Well, I say bravo to the resistance myself.
	I certainly don't encourage people to burn down trams or set fire to police cars or loot stores.
	Violence, as we have seen in the BLM riots, and as we see all over the world, unfortunately works.
	I'm not by any means endorsing it, but this is what gets attention.
	Certainly people should get out and make their feelings known, but break no laws.
	Well, if I could echo what you're saying, obviously you don't break laws and stuff, but unfortunately violence is a one-way street when it is done by the shock troops of the establishment.
	And that's what scares the elite so much across the entire world.
	That's why, Mr. Taylor, they're going after Elon Musk so much, and they're trying to blackmail him into keeping Twitter a place where it must be milquetoast when it comes to conversations we can have.
	You know, a lot of credit goes to Elon Musk for retweeting an individual who spoke at
	your conference last year, Keith Woods, who is an absolutely outstanding Irish nationalist
	and who has been doing a wonderful duty for his people in standing up to just this tyrannical
	government that wants to institute hate crime laws that go beyond the pale.
	And Elon Musk, Elon Musk, for what he said yesterday, I think he deserves more credit
	in the world than than anyone.
	I know A.R. has the white renegade of the year, which they give out unceremoniously
	to a white individual who has done the worst to to his race.
	I believe Elon Musk is the exact opposite of that.
	And, you know, had had Jack Dorsey been in charge of Twitter, we would never have known
	Conor McGregor would have been kicked off immediately for what he said.
	And now...
	Somebody is poised to pick up the proverbial crown of Ireland out of the gutter, put it upon his head, and stand up for their people.
	Let me issue a bit of a teaser here.
	The great Gregory Hood has written a feature for this week.
	It will go up either today or probably tomorrow.
	It is a very, very insightful look at what's going on in Ireland.
	Hood is very knowledgeable about that conflict, and he mentions the fact of Keith Wood's and some of Keith Wood's arguments at the American Renaissance Conference.
	Yes, I hope that this is a sign that the Irish are not going to take this lying down.
	So, Mr. Kersey, the floor is yours.
	I believe you have a number of things to tell us about the Disney Corporation, which may have sort of retreated into a financial distress and is licking its wounds.
	Yeah, you have to wonder when investors are going to actually put together a class action lawsuit knowing the fiduciary interests of the shareholder have been put on hold for the social justice initiatives of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
	This is from Zero Hedge.
	Disney admits woke strategy pivot has adversely impacted the company.
	Yay!
	An SEC filing reveals.
	According to the latest filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the Walt Disney Company acknowledged that it faces risks relating to misalignment with public and consumer tastes and preferences for entertainment, travel, and consumer products, and that revenues and profitability are adversely impacted when their entertainment offerings and products don't achieve sufficient consumer acceptance.
	Let me go ahead and distill that down and translate that for you.
	If you piss on white people, don't be afraid, or don't be shocked when white people don't come up to be pissed upon.
	So, if I could put that very bluntly.
	Well, that's pretty blunt, but yes.
	That's from that's that's some lexicon from Madea.
	So anyways, conversely, it describes itself as a diversified worldwide entertainment company with diversity, equity, inclusion objectives that include building teams that reflect the life experiences of our audience while employing and supporting a diverse array of voices in our creative and production teams.
	Yeah, great, great, great.
	But they're not going to abandon any of that, despite the fact that it loses money, I'm sure.
	No, exactly.
	It's the message that matters, not the revenue, not the profit, and not enriching their shareholders, which they have a fiduciary responsibility to.
	According to the filing, the company revenues for fiscal year 2023 were $88.9 billion.
	While this was a 7% increase over fiscal year 2022, The Hollywood Reporter noted that Disney was forced to cut spending on television movie content from $29.8 billion to $27.2 billion, and Business Insider reported in May that Disney entered its third round of layoffs, releasing around 7,000 employees and scrapping plans to build a $900 million corporate campus in Florida.
	The success of our business depends upon our ability to constantly create compelling content, it further said in its filing, noting that such distribution must meet the changing preferences of the broad consumer market.
	They don't realize that the broad consumer market's preferences are not changing.
	They are deliberately trying to change our preferences and, Lord be praised, they're failing.
	Yeah, but despite producing a string of woke box office flops, Strange World, Light Years, The Marvels, and the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid, I believe they just had one that came out with a black or black Hispanic lead called Wish, and that bombed significantly this past week.
	I might be wrong with the title, but whatever the cartoon was, it bombed.
	The Daily Caller revealed that the company has launched a new pronoun pens program for its employees at the Epcot Center.
	Which drew immediate backlash.
	You have to wonder what Walt Disney, who created Epcot as this wonderful vision of what a community and city should look like in the future, would think if he found out that his employees in the future would be wearing pronoun pins.
	Anyways.
	Overall, Disney says the price of our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile.
	According to the Stock Exchange, Disney stock is tanking rapidly.
	Disney also admitted damage to our reputation or brands may negatively impact our company across the business and regions.
	potential credit ratings action increases in interest rates or volatility in the US and
	Global financial markets could impede access to or increase the cost of financing our operations and in other words
	They're gonna be downgraded by the security agencies and have to pay have to pay great more interest on their borrowings
	Yeah, and what's fascinating is yesterday yesterday the New York Times interview in Elon Musk, mr. Taylor and they
	asked about you know what are you worried about when it comes to all these
	advertisers pulling Disney has joined Microsoft, IBM, and Apple in pulling ad advertisements off of Twitter X. And Elon Musk simply said, you know what?
	I'm not gonna be blackmailed.
	Here's what I have to say.
	Go F yourself.
	And he said, once again, to advertisers, he said it once again, he said, go F yourself.
	And then he said, hi, Bob, in regards to saying hello to Bob Iger, the CEO of Disney.
	Gosh, I guess Elon Musk has been watching Tyler Perry movies, too.
	Well, I think he's just, I think he's just, he's fed up and he is at this point.
	And I mean, that's not, that's not a rational reaction.
	So let's talk about Disney versus DeSantis.
	I think tonight DeSantis is going to be having a debate on Fox News or something with Gavin Newsom.
	Gavin Newsom.
	Yes, very interesting.
	Yeah, I won't be watching, but I'm sure a lot of people will.
	And one of the reasons that this is happening is because Disney has its home base, I believe you'd call its home base, in Anaheim, with Disneyland.
	Well, that's original Disneyland.
	Disneyland is there.
	I don't know if its corporate headquarters are there.
	Yeah, I don't know the answer to that, but of course Florida and California are such a dichotomy, because Disneyland is in Anaheim and Disney World was built in the Orange Coves down in Orlando, and so it's such a fascinating debate tonight.
	And this is really what brought DeSantis to the forefront, was his battle with Disney.
	Mr. Taylor, as reported by the Epoch Times, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts filed a lawsuit against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and the hand-selected board that oversees Disney's special taxing district, In April of this past year, according to the complaint, Disney accused Mr. DeSantis of engaging in a targeted campaign of government retaliation as punishment for Disney's protected speech.
	The Disney-DeSantis war began in 2021 when the family theme park issued a COVID-19 vaccination mandate for its employees in July of that year.
	Mr. DeSantis responded in November of 2021 by banning vaccine mandates in Florida.
	In March 2022, caving to pressure from activists in the LGBT community, then Disney CEO Bob Chapek officially denounced the governor's parental rights and education legislation, dubbed by critics as the Don't Say Gay Bill.
	He also sent a message to all... Go ahead.
	When I first heard about the Don't Say Gay Bill and the idea that discussion of homosexuality was going to be banned in schools, I assumed that it applied to K through 12.
	And it was a great surprise to me when I looked into it to find out it was only talking about K through, what is it, grade 3?
	It's only K-3 that they're not supposed to talk about sexual orientation.
	When you were in the third grade, or maybe it was K-3, I don't know, were you ready, or would you have had any interest?
	I would have been utterly baffled and confused if the teacher started telling me, well, you know, you may think you're a boy, but you might actually be a girl.
	I can't even fathom, as a father of two children in elementary school, I can't even fathom any of this.
	And when I was in elementary school, you know, people would say, you know, you would say, oh, that's so, you know, again, I'm not trying to be demeaning to our homosexual listeners, LGBT audience, which I know we have.
	But I mean, people would say that, oh, that's so gay.
	And you didn't even think about it.
	It's like, oh, you know, gay used to mean happy.
	Uh, if you didn't tell me that that homosexuals existed, I wouldn't believe you.
	Uh, and it wasn't forced upon you.
	Um, now, I mean, that's all you learn about.
	Uh, and, and you're just, you're just immersed and marinated in this world and it's, it's, I'll be blind.
	It's repulsive.
	And there's a reason why moms for liberty is one of the fastest growing organizations in the country.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	But yeah, that was a bit of a sidetrack.
	Back to our little contretemps between Disney and DeSantis.
	Yeah, it's a good one.
	Let's see here.
	Let's see.
	My apologies.
	We stopped with it.
	Okay.
	Bob Champik sent a message to all employees, especially in the company's LGBTQ plus community.
	I think there's been a couple more letters added to that since.
	That's right.
	Apologizing for not acting sooner and announcing that Disney would pause all political contributions in the state.
	Following months, Mr. DeSantis retaliated with the threat to repeal the 1967 Reedy Creek Improvement Act, which established a special production taxing district for Disney World.
	On April 22nd, 2022, he followed through by signing Senate Bill 4C into law.
	That escalation continued after Disney filed a lawsuit this past April.
	On November 17th, the Orlando Sentinel reported, U.S.
	District Judge Allen Winsdor will hear arguments starting on December 12th regarding Disney's contention that retaliation by the Sunshine State Well, you know, to a degree, I am sympathetic with Disney on this, frankly.
	It sounds as though they really had some sort of sweetheart deal with the state, or had this sort of self-governing little entity where Disney was operating.
	I think they got all kinds of tax benefits.
	Insane, yeah.
	Yes, well, and that's something that it seems to me clearly the state has a right to revoke if it decides to.
	Now, if it decided to revoke that strictly because of something that the Disney organization was saying, the Disney people might have some sort of argument.
	I am, after all, pretty much a free speech absolutist, and if they want to shout gay, gay, gay, LGBT all day long, that's their business.
	But we'll see what happens.
	Let's see.
	So, oh yes, another piece of big news.
	This is about Derek Chauvin.
	We know who he was, the former, or he is, the former Minneapolis police officer who was convicted of murdering George Floyd when he died under his knee of a drug overdose.
	He was stabbed by another inmate and seriously injured in the Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson, a medium security prison that apparently has been plagued by all sorts of security lapses and staffing shortages.
	He was taken to the hospital for treatment and evaluation.
	As it turns out, There's been a problem with these high-profile people being attacked in jail.
	This sports doctor, Larry Nassar, who apparently was groping little girls, he was stabbed by a fellow inmate at the Federal Pen in Florida.
	And Derek Chauvin's lawyer, Eric Nelson, had asked that he be kept out of the general population and away from other inmates, anticipating that he would be a target.
	In Minnesota, Chauvin was mainly kept in solitary for his own protection.
	Now, last week, the U.S.
	Supreme Court rejected his appeal on his murder conviction.
	And separately, Chauvin is making a long shot bid to overturn his federal guilty plea, claiming new evidence shows he did not cause Floyd's death.
	The fact is, it's all pretty old evidence.
	It just was not emphasized during his trial.
	And Chauvin's stabbing comes, it's another example of the federal prisoner's inability to keep even its highest profile prisoner safe after Nasser's stabbing and also the Unabomber Ted Kaczynski's suicide.
	I hadn't heard about that when it happened.
	Were you aware of that?
	Ted Kaczynski apparently killed himself despite the fact that they're supposed to keep an eye on these guys and prevent that sort of thing.
	The feds, as it turns out, have 158,000 inmates and an annual budget of about $8 billion, which means $50,000 a year per prisoner.
	Now, I have no idea whether that is a lot of money or not a lot of money.
	It sounds like a lot of money, but you've got to house them, feed them, clothe them, medicate them, and probably try to rehabilitate them, pay the guards, etc.
	But we pay $50,000 a year per prisoner, and they still manage to stab each other and kill themselves.
	Now, just as a teaser, likewise, we are going to review the latest video that is out about the Chauvin trial.
	And there is probably nothing in it that people who have been following our website very, very carefully don't know about, because we had our crack crime reporter, Anastasia Katz, covering the trial day by day.
	But it's called The Fall of Minneapolis.
	It goes into details that the general public is ignorant of, and apparently it's very, very well
	produced, and we will be reviewing it shortly.
	So I can't, I can't, I can't recommend that, that documentary enough.
	Watch it.
	You've watched it.
	Oh, great.
	Watch it.
	It's available for free on Rumble, I believe on the YouTube channel as well.
	And then there's a book that Liz Wheeler wrote.
	I'm sorry, it's not Liz Wheeler.
	It's Liz Collins, I believe, on the topic.
	And it's, it really does, you know, I don't know if the definitive book will be written
	for a while about just how crazy 20th Century Fox is.
	I mean, again, I go back to your article, The Year We Went Mad, and I think we're really beginning to see the pushback now.
	And it's extraordinary.
	You know, a good friend of mine, Jack Cashel, wrote an amazing piece for The Spectator where he said Derek Chauvin didn't kill.
	You know, he's a political prisoner.
	And I believe that.
	I believe the Brunswick Three, they're political prisoners.
	There are a lot of political prisoners.
	And this with Christmas season approaching, you know, I just like to say that all these people never met them, these individuals in jail, but they they're in my thoughts and prayers because they should be at home with their families for Christmas.
	Yes, they certainly should.
	These were outrageous, politically motivated miscarriages of justice, an absolute disgrace and a stain on our record as a country that is supposed to be a nation of laws.
	And speaking of laws, There is interesting news about gun control and gun laws.
	Last June, Ohio became the 23rd state in the nation to adopt a permitless carry law, allowing legal gun owners to keep and bear arms without a permit, concealed carry included.
	Anti-gun politicians declared it would make the state a more dangerous place.
	However, the FBI's crime statistics for 2022, the first year of constitutional carry, are now out.
	Violent crime is down in Ohio, a 7.5% decrease from the previous year, while the US as a whole reported a 1.63% decrease.
	So it was down more than the US as a whole.
	Ohio had 6.1 homicides for 100,000 people last year compared to 7.5 and 7 in 2021 and 2022.
	So, 6.1 compared to 7.5 and 7 is a very considerable decrease.
	Year-to-date murder comparisons show continued declines in the homicide rate in many Ohio cities.
	Akron, for instance, has seen its murder rate decline by almost 40% Through the year up to September 30th, homicides in Cincinnati are down 13% compared to the last year before constitutional carry.
	Murders have dropped by 30% in Toledo.
	I consider this pretty convincing evidence, and I would recommend to all of our listeners to read a book called More Guns, Less Crime by John Lott.
	He makes an extremely convincing argument.
	And, of course, it makes sense.
	If your potential rapist or robber thinks that the person that he's targeting just might be carrying potential death in his waistband, he's going to think twice about it.
	And this John Lott goes into statistics that makes this a very convincing thing.
	When are they going to allow this in Washington, D.C., for example?
	It would be an obvious thing to do.
	And to me, one of the most astonishing and inexplicable things is when you have something like a constitutional carrot in which people are automatically given the right so long as they are not criminals and banned for some other reason to carry a concealed weapon.
	Why localities then go around and make that illegal in schools or in churches or in public gatherings?
	It really is the equivalent of putting a target on those places.
	Free fire zone.
	It makes absolutely no sense because it's only the law-abiding people who are going to leave their guns in the car if they go into the school or go into the church.
	I would love to sit down and talk with someone about the rationale behind this.
	In any case, this is good news on gun laws.
	Ohio, as it puts guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens, has seen its violence rates and its homicide rates go down.
	Let's see.
	Another little item here.
	This just goes to show you some of the folly and confusion loose upon the country.
	The Denver School District has become the first in the country to adopt a language justice policy for the long term.
	Language justice.
	You know, we have justice of all kinds these days, you know, shade equity and you name it.
	Now we've got language justice.
	The district would encourage non-English speaking students to be able to use their native language to learn as opposed to being educated in English, which advocates say is oppressive and rooted in racism.
	Did you know that's rooted in racism to expect people to come here and learn English?
	That's racism, Mr. Kersey.
	Denver schools had about 90,250 students in 2022, 35,000 of whom did not speak English at home.
	That means that's 35,000 out of 90,250.
	35,000 of whom did not speak English at home.
	That means that's 35,000 out of 90,250.
	That means more than one third are not native English speakers.
	I assume, well, they say here that in the district, there are 200 different languages spoken.
	Spanish, of course, is the majority home language.
	But I guess Denver is really going Hispanic in a big, big way, at least certainly in the public schools.
	Now, the definition for language justice is, and I'm quoting, To be able to communicate, understand, and be understood in the language in which the student prefers and feels most articulate and powerful.
	Well, what in the heck does that mean?
	If I am a speaker of Twi, or Tigrinya, or Bahasa Mele, does that mean that I am supposed to communicate, understand, learn, and express myself in any of those languages?
	It's absolutely unclear what this policy would end up entailing, what it would cost.
	Apparently, the district did not provide any details, but this is the direction in which they are moving.
	Now, on the one hand, Mr. Kersey, I'm of two minds about this.
	The mental capitulation that says, OK, you come from a country and all you know how to speak is the West African language of Wolof.
	Well, we're going to let you study in Wolof and take the SAT in Wolof and give the valedictorian address in Wolof and that'll be just fine.
	That mentality is absolutely despicable to me.
	On the other hand, I'm happy for these people to remain as strange and as foreign and as unassimilable as possible.
	I agree with that.
	Yes, yes.
	Let them stay as Wolofian or Tigrinian or as incomprehensible as possible.
	Now, I believe, Mr. Kersey, you have yet another sort of a good news story here, or at least what goes around comes around.
	Woke books are losing money just the way woke movies are losing money.
	Hand over fist.
	Yeah.
	I believe this is from the Daily Mail.
	Woke books bought for huge advances by inexperienced editors hired post-George Floyd have flopped, including $500,000 queer feminist novel that sold A mere 3,500 copies.
	What, repeat that again?
	A $500,000 advance for a queer feminist novel?
	Yeah, a $500,000 advance for a queer feminist novel that sold 3,500 copies.
	You do the math to see what it costs to sell one unit.
	And I'm not even going to call this person by their name, by their new name.
	I think it's Ellen Page that this individual goes by Elliot Page now, I guess I'm misgendering
	them.
	It's this female who, you know, whatever, now goes by a male, got a $3 million transgender
	memoir that sold 68,000 copies.
	This is an individual that's being pushed very, very heavily.
	You know, she was actually very attractive at one point.
	She was in the X-Men movies.
	Now she thinks she's a man?
	She had her memories removed and it's really gross stuff.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Well, you know, you say she's being very pushed hard, but she hasn't been pushed into my life.
	I'd never heard of her.
	But she was an attractive woman who was actually movie star quality and now thinks she's a man.
	Correct.
	Yeah.
	Yeah other editors Daily Mail observes claim publishers are actively shunning works by white males so Among the works response.
	Okay.
	We've already mentioned Ellen pages journey transitioning which called page boy and Talk about a shocking $3 million advance.
	Industry standards suggest for publishers paying roughly $7 per book sold is considered a good deal, according to insiders talking to Free Press.
	Other recent flops are Carolyn Farrell's Dear Miss Metropolitan, described in the New York Times as a story of three young girls, black and biracial, who are kidnapped and thrown into the basement of a decaying house in Queens.
	That sounds like a plot from Medea.
	No, I'm joking.
	The novel was acquired in a deal estimated to be worth $250,000, but has shifted just 3,163 units since it was published in 2021.
	Another example is Queer Feminist Western Lucky Red by Claudia Cravens, which has sold around 3,500 copies despite... No, no, hold on, hold on.
	A Queer Feminist Western?
	I'll read it again.
	I'll read it again.
	Another example is Queer Feminist Western Lucky Red by Claudia Cravens.
	Sold 3,500 copies despite commanding a hefty $500,000 advance.
	Mr. Kersey, I think that puts unbearable pressure on my brain.
	This is a Queer Feminist Western.
	Okay.
	All right.
	Well, you know, brave new world.
	So, sorry, sorry, but my mind continues to boggle at the idea of a Queer Feminist Western.
	Yeah, in the same breath, meanwhile, established white authors have complained they're facing more barriers to get published.
	Crime novelist James Patterson, a very prolific author, he drew criticism after he likened the situation to just another form of racism.
	He later apologized for saying this, because you're not supposed to notice it, like, oh gosh, Scott Adams, who has come under such fire, the guy who does Dilbert.
	A friend who is a literary agent told me that he can't even get editors to read first novels by young, white, male writers, no matter how good.
	his being canceled for his observations about black crime where he's no longer in any major newspaper.
	Quote, a friend who is a literary agent told me that he can't even get editors to read first
	novels by young white male writers no matter how good. They are just not interested, she said.
	It's also something editors themselves have acknowledged.
	We flat out decided we weren't going to look for certain white male authors because we didn't want to be seen as acquiring that stuff, one senior editor told the paper.
	It's incredible the way they come right out and say it.
	We just don't want to be seen as publishing white men.
	Yeah, exactly.
	What about dead?
	Just dead white males?
	Even those are no good.
	As the great Scott Greer wrote, no country for white men, no pages for white men.
	Sorry, guys.
	Another editor at a major publishing house admitted to the outlet that those seeking to pursue more conservative works must be willing to deal with interpersonal discomfort, being treated as marginal, or looked on with suspicion by their colleagues.
	Several industry experts noted a trend toward hiring editors of color In the wake of the murder of George Floyd and the wave of anti-racist protests that followed a move they described as overtly political.
	You know, the story goes on to talk about just a number of other authors that have been paid, you know, one quarter of a million dollar advances and have sold virtually nothing.
	One of those one of those was.
	A book called American Dirt, a book about the Mexican immigrant experience written by non-Mexican author Janine Cummings.
	So I guess she was co-opting the Mexican immigrant experience.
	Other newcomer editors include stand-up comedian Phoebe Robinson, who oversees the Penguin imprint Tiny Reparations Books, and ad Nike Ola Rewaju, who has secured one deal since becoming editor of HarperCollins in 2021.
	Wait, wait, wait, wait.
	She's become the editor of HarperCollins and she has managed to get one deal in the last two years?
	One deal in the last two years.
	She was a publicist at Penguin and a newsroom contributor at the New York Times prior to the move.
	Again, it's just extraordinary to see all the fawning of the corporate media on a lot of these authors.
	We've talked about Jamil Hill.
	She used to be at ESPN.
	She's a black Black nationalist who truly hates white people, she wrote a memoir called Uphill that had glowing reviews in Apple Books, USA Today, and the New York Times, and it's only sold 500,000, I'm sorry, 534 copies.
	534 copies?
	Yeah, despite all that immense publicity.
	Well, Mr. Kersey, you know, if you don't rush right out and buy that book, it's only because you're racist.
	This is your white fragility that prevents you from appreciating Jemele Hill's autobiography.
	Well, that's the gift that I'm giving out for Christmas this year is Jemele Hill's autobiography.
	I've got 10 copies safely under my Christmas tree.
	Oh boy, you're going to have very, very happy friends and family, I can tell.
	Well here, two last lines from this, just so we can have a Just so we can have a glimpse of what's coming in the literary world.
	Former HarperCollins and St.
	Martin's Press editor chalked the flops up to generational change.
	It just so happens, in this case, the new generation is a generation of ideological fanatics.
	The individual is true quoted in this told the press and they really are they're not only ideological fanatics
	They are they are militant in their ideological fanaticism and and their ass an entity
	If that's a word we can use so welcome to the brave new world of
	book publishing Well, you know, it's not necessarily all that new
	the publisher Carol and graph who published my last respectable book
	which was paved with good intentions Came out in, gosh, 1989 or something.
	They made a lot of money on it, but when I approached them with my book ten years later, White Identity, they said, you know, we could probably publish this and make a lot of money too, but money is no longer what matters.
	We took a lot of heat for publishing Paved with Good Intentions.
	And they said the kind of trouble you get into at book fairs, the kind of invitations you don't get to editors' meetings, they said, we can probably make a huge stink with this book and make money, but it's just not worth it.
	I thought that was a very candid and very sobering reply.
	So even back then, even what, 15 years ago, money was not the point.
	Respectability, being seen as on the right side of history, all of that was more important than making money.
	So, let's see, we got another, oh yes, here is, this is a very interesting gun control story.
	The man who shot and killed five people at a bank in April this year in Louisville, Kentucky, wanted to send a message about the need for gun control.
	Do you remember that killing?
	It was really quite well planned.
	Connor James Sturgeon, who died on April 10 in a firefight with Louisville police, left behind a journal that laid out his motives.
	Including his belief that killing upper-class white people would prompt tougher laws on firearms access.
	Yes, I have decided to make an impact, he said.
	These people did not deserve to die, those the folks he killed, but because I was depressed and able to buy guns, they are gone.
	Well, there is a certain twisted logic here.
	If you think America is a white supremacist society, and black lives don't matter, and only upper-class white lives do, if you really want to make a point that there are too many guns in circulation, you go out and you buy a gun and you kill upper-class white people, and presumably you're going to get gun control.
	He says, perhaps this can be the impetus for change.
	Upper-class white people dying, I certainly would not have been able to do this were it more difficult to get a gun.
	He was 25 years old.
	He opened a fire on his bank co-workers in a conference room.
	At Old National Bank, he killed five people and injured eight.
	He expressed disgust with how easily he was able to get a firearm.
	He says, just walked in, 15 minutes later, I got my AR-15.
	I know our politicians are solely focused on lining their own pockets, but maybe this will knock some sense into them.
	If not, good luck.
	Of course, once again, the armed citizen response is, why was there no return fire from his colleagues?
	Here he was, able to walk into a bank with an AR-15, for heaven's sake, that's hard to conceal, I wonder if they had it down his leg or something, and blaze away at his colleagues, and then he ambushed the police, Why no return fire?
	I bet the bank has some sort of no-gun policy or something.
	Yeah, you almost wonder if the AR rifle was a pistol, an AR-15 pistol.
	I bet it probably wasn't.
	My recollection is this is a full-length AR.
	But there you go.
	But this just goes to show you some of the strange thinking people have.
	About guns, about white people, about our society, yet another almost impossible to imagine crime here.
	A guy who's going to go out and kill white people with a gun in the name of gun control.
	A white guy.
	A white guy.
	Yes, yes, yes.
	I should have made that clear.
	He looks like he just stepped out of a Sigma Nu fraternity chapter at the University of Georgia.
	You know, he's a preppy looking white dude.
	Wow, wow.
	Very strange things going on in the brains of our fellow citizens, Mr. Kersey.
	Now, here's another weird thing that would be hard to imagine in a sane world, but a transgender woman has been charged with threatening to shoot up schools and rape Christian girls in bathrooms.
	So this is a man who's pretending to be a woman, Jason Lee Willey, who calls himself Alexia Willey.
	Modeled threats after the transgender Nashville Christian Covenant school shooter Audrey Hale.
	I did a video about her when it was leaked that she was absolutely determined to kill white children.
	To kill white children.
	This is all part of her many, many volumes of diaries and manifestos that have been very, very carefully concealed.
	The Nashville shooter wanted to kill white children to whom she referred to in the most insulting terms.
	Well, this guy's 47 years old.
	He says, we're out here walking into your school shooting your children.
	I catch your daughters in the bathrooms alone.
	I am going to F them.
	I am going to F, F, F them until they're dead.
	And then he goes on to say this.
	This is, you know, the strange things going on in the minds of our fellow citizens about blacks.
	He says they're trash.
	They're Christian trash.
	They're transphobic, they're homophobic, they're no different from the effing white supremacists.
	I guess the lowest form of humanity are white supremacists.
	That's exactly who the eff they are.
	He goes on to say, listen, Dave Chappelle, And all the blacks out there—and Dave Chappelle apparently did a comedy routine in which he said some funny but insulting things about transgenders—all the black people out there talking about trannies, they ain't no different from white supremacists.
	You all bow to the same cross.
	There are lots of transgenders out here.
	We're tired of being picked on, and we're going to go into the schools, and we're going to kill their effing children.
	That's the end of it.
	We are at war.
	Again, this is a form of complete cuckoo craziness that it would have been impossible to imagine, I think, even 10 years ago.
	But these people who really do swallow this nonsense that there is some kind of war of extermination against transgenders, so they're going to have their own little sneak attack Pearl Harbor and walk into Christian schools and rape and murder their children—well, if he thinks that he's going to improve the views that people have about transgenders, he is badly mistaken.
	I hate to say it, Mr. Taylor, but this is a logical conclusion of this ideological fanaticism capsizing schools and minds across the country.
	That's right.
	It's, you know, a pre-deluge, this is what you get.
	This is what you get.
	When you start pumping people's minds full of insanity and poisons, this kind of almost unimaginable craziness is what you get.
	Now, Mr. Kersey, I suspect you probably saw the video of the stabbing at Southeast Raleigh High School.
	It was quite popular on X because, well, the police got a report about 11 in the morning about a juvenile who had stabbed several people in a fight And the video clips posted show multiple students attacking a guy, and the fight spills from the hallway into a gymnasium, and the result is the 14-year-old who was being just absolutely mob attacked.
	He stabbed a 15-year-old and a 16-year-old.
	The 15-year-old died, and the 16-year-old is still in the hospital.
	Of course, this is an all-black cast, but it is a very interesting video, and it's the absolutely typical usual thing.
	A gang of about eight or ten people go after one guy, and as soon as the first punch is thrown, the rest of them are on him like a pack of piranhas after a pig falls into the river.
	It's the most—and you see this over and over.
	That's quite divisible, by the way.
	Yes.
	Well, that's actually a listener who suggested that metaphor.
	Like a pack of piranhas.
	That's exactly how it is.
	And so this guy, he runs away, but they catch up with him, they knock him down, And then he whips out a knife, and he stabs several people.
	You can see him wailing away with a knife, and boy, that changes their plans.
	They back way off, and he walks away safe and sound.
	Now, he has been charged with murder, but it seems to me that this could very well be argued as a case of self-defense.
	After you watch enough of these videos of these absolute brutal mob attacks in which you have maybe a dozen people, and remember there was that white guy, I've even forgotten where it was, someplace out in California, a bunch of black guys beat him absolutely to death.
	That was Las Vegas actually, Mr. Taylor.
	Yes, that's right, Las Vegas.
	It was an absolute lynching.
	Justin something.
	I can't remember his name.
	I can't remember his name either.
	It's a pity.
	We all know George Floyd, but we don't know this guy's name.
	But I'm not at all surprised that something like this happens.
	People are going to start carrying knives, guns, and one of these days, some white guy who is absolutely piled on like that, who is likely to be beaten to death, he's going to pull out a gun and he's going to start plugging his assailants.
	This is bound to happen.
	His name is Jonathan Lewis, by the way.
	Rest in peace, Jonathan.
	Yes, rest in peace.
	So, it'll be very interesting to see what the result of this is.
	This is, again, an all-black cast, so it will probably be treated in a normal and, let's hope, in an even-handed way.
	But when it's a white guy who is defending himself against a mob of blacks, then we will get probably another Derek Chauvin and another Ahmaud Arbery kind of result.
	Well, lo and behold, Mr. Kersey, we've run out of time.
	It happens every week.
	It happens every week.
	It's just awful.
	And so let us remind our listeners, we'd love to hear from you, and you can reach us at amren.com, A-M-R-E-N dot com, at the Contact Us tab, or you can Send me an email, ladies and gentlemen, becausewelivehereatproton.me.
	Once again, becausewelivehereatproton.me.
	And thank you so much for your attention.
	As I say every week, it is an honor and a pleasure to spend this time with you, and I really mean it, and we look forward to speaking with you again next week.
