	Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to Radio Renaissance.
	I'm your host, Jared Taylor, with American Renaissance.
	And today is March 7th, year of our love, 2024.
	And with me, of course, is my indispensable host, none other than Paul Kersey.
	And as usual, we will start with comments from listeners, of which there are several.
	A listener writes in to say, in last week's podcast, you mentioned that Mary Poppins, the movie, now carries a trigger warning because it contains the unspeakable slur hot and tot if so the thought police will need to issue a warrant for the wizard of oz as the cowardly man asks the question what makes the hot and tot so hot not only is this question blatantly racist according to the experts the use of the word hot is patently sexist sexist and body negative
	One can only imagine the unspeakable horrors unleashed by the lions.
	Next question.
	What puts the ape in apricot?
	Oh my gosh.
	Oh my gosh.
	The horror.
	The horror.
	Remarkable, the things that our listeners know, isn't it, Mr. Kersey?
	Quite remarkable.
	I couldn't have quoted any of those lines from The Wizard of Oz, despite the fact that I've seen it I don't know how many times.
	What put the ape in apricot?
	Another comment.
	Some time ago, a listener asked whether, given the anti-white bias in universities, it's worthwhile for whites to attend college.
	You said that a degree is something you have to have for many important jobs, and you recommended that whites grit their teeth and graduate.
	What about joining the military?
	Is that a good way to serve our people?
	I would be less inclined to encourage people to go into the military, unless there is some kind of military related skill they really want to learn.
	And I'm not sure that that is definitely going to be the most important sort of thing to know.
	I mean, there could come to a dust up of some serious dimensions, but I don't think that's going to happen for a long time.
	In any case, I think military training is probably, in general, a good thing, but I think you'd have to really hold your nose almost as much as in a university if you went into the current military, the current wide-awake, wide-awake, just insomniac wide-awake military of today.
	What do you think, Mr. Kersey?
	Wow, it depends what branch you're going into and what your long-term goals are.
	If you want to get into private security, doing some sort of military where you're special forces, whether it's air combat controller in the Air Force, if you try and become a, you know, a ranger, if you try to become a SEAL, let's face it, the future is private security forces, probably.
	And I think that there's a lot of opportunity there because the rich and famous They aren't going to ask for your DEI credentials if you're going to be protecting them.
	Probably not.
	Probably not.
	Of course, those are very difficult branches to get into, and everybody's got what it takes to become a SEAL or Special Forces guy.
	But yes, that is certainly something worth considering if that is your career choice.
	Moving on to the comments.
	I have a correction for you this week in your podcast, the topic of American television shows.
	The Muppet came up and Uncle Jared asked, isn't that the one with the purple dinosaur?
	To which Mr. Kersey said, no, you're thinking of Sesame Street.
	Ah, to err is human, gentlemen, but I'm disappointed.
	I thought you two fine men took great pride in being well-versed in the artistic creations of Western civilization.
	The production Uncle Jared was thinking of is Barney the Dinosaur from the timeless collection known as Barney and Friends.
	Perhaps you've been watching too much MSNBC and The Young Turks.
	Your minds are now full of other things.
	Well, shame on us, Mr. Kersey.
	Shame on us.
	Barney and Friends.
	Well, shut my mouth.
	My daughter had a big purple dinosaur, and I knew its name was Barney.
	And I guess I never got beyond that elementary fact.
	If I could try and defend ourselves, I was thinking of Mr. Snuffleupagus, but I believe he's actually brown.
	That's a Muppet.
	That's that big, large creature with an elephant snout, and that's what I confused it with.
	So, it's been a long time since I've forced myself.
	Not good enough.
	Not good enough, Mr. Kersey.
	Purple dinosaur.
	We're talking about a purple dinosaur, not something brown with an elephant snout.
	But in any case, another correction, another correction, oh dear.
	It's a small error in regard to the reference to Margaret Atwood's novel.
	The title is not The Handmaiden, it's The Handmaid's Tale.
	So there you go.
	Well, thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
	We do like to have our errors corrected on the record.
	Now, this was quite an eye-opening, eye-opening little comment from a listener.
	Greetings from Scandinavia!
	In the last podcast episode, Mr. Taylor and Mr. Kersey mentioned the popularity of eating chicken among the melanin-enhanced.
	Videos on social media have now revealed the secret to this black cuisine specialty—washing the chicken before cooking.
	Some use just detergent.
	Others use bleach while emphasizing it has to be name brand or it won't taste right.
	Golly, that gives, I would give that about five exclamation marks.
	Whew, bleach and it's got to be name brand.
	There is a compilation video on Rumble.
	It's called Best Chicken Recipe Question or on People Who Wash Their Chicken.
	It's easy to find if you look up those words.
	And it is remarkable.
	People just scrubbing the heck out of that chicken.
	And just a basin full of soap suds and squeezing dish detergent on by the tablespoon.
	Wow!
	And there is that comment, you got to use name brand bleach or it won't taste right.
	Well, A commenter adds, this practice has caught the attention of the CDC, and it has issued a statement warning against washing raw chicken, turkey, and other poultry.
	Well, I took a look at the CDC on the subject, and there is a big, splashy page called 10 Dangerous Food Safety Mistakes.
	And right at the top, there's a photo of a happy black family in the kitchen.
	But I'm not sure that has to do with washing chicken.
	They're likely to put a happy black family just about anywhere on the CDC page, whether it's warnings against AIDS or monkeypox or anything else.
	Now, mistake number 10.
	This is number 10 of the 10 dangerous food safety mistakes.
	Washing meat, chicken, or turkey.
	Washing raw meat, chicken, turkey, or eggs can spread germs.
	Those germs can get into other food, and cooking thoroughly will kill harmful germs.
	So, there you go.
	But, ladies and gentlemen, I do recommend watching this most remarkable compilation, Best Chicken Recipe?
	on Rumble.
	And we've got two more comments to go.
	All very good.
	This one has to do with our February 29th podcast.
	This is a more serious comment.
	With the clumsy missteps of various AI engines, they may provoke laughter and derision, but there's a more sinister aspect.
	This was, we were talking about, I believe it was Gemini.
	Gemini was the worst offender.
	You ask for founding fathers, and you get black ladies.
	You ask for, what was it, Civil War soldiers, and you might get black women, too.
	Just the most preposterous, crazy things.
	And you ask for important white people in America, and you get Oprah Winfrey, and you get other people who are clearly not white.
	Really, just quite hilarious in its own silly way.
	As our listener correctly points out, what these AI engines and the extraordinarily wealthy and powerful big tech firms who own them intend is the organized erasure of the history, culture, identity of whites.
	Their agenda, their morality is no different from the mobs who tore down monuments to white heroes.
	Whites everywhere must grasp this as a declaration of war against them, and we must fight back.
	A Trump presidency will not correct this, nor will any reform of the corruption in Washington, D.C.
	This battle is winner-take-all.
	If whites lose, a new dark age will begin.
	There is nothing in Asian or Arab cultures that will lead to a recovery.
	I would point out to this listener and also to our other listeners, We have a feature.
	Last week's feature on the AmRen website was by Gregory Hood, Gregory the Great.
	It's called Anti-White is No Laughing Matter, because our listeners correct.
	This rather obvious set of mistakes in the case of Gemini simply reflect the underlying view of the people who put that together, the people who run those big tech firms.
	They will paper it over so that if you ask the founding fathers, you won't get a bunch of black ladies.
	But the underlying assumptions of denigrating whites at every opportunity and promoting everybody else, that will remain.
	And finally, the last comment.
	At the end, I looked it up.
	It's actually point-o-bama.
	Maybe he meant point-o-banana.
	I don't know.
	But the number is very, very small.
	In fact, probably the presence of the Obama family—and there are four of them, not just two—probably doesn't even register as a percentage point.
	So, thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for your on-point, on-the-ball comments, and I invite those of you with comments, corrections, to get in touch with us.
	You can get in touch direct with me at amren.com, A-M-R-E-N dot com, at the Contact Us page, or your other option is to... Hey, that's email me, ladies and gentlemen, at BecauseWeLiveHere at ProtonMail.com.
	Once again, All one word.
	Because we live here at Protonmail.com.
	And Mr. Taylor, I know our listeners love to hear about your travels throughout your life.
	Have you ever been to Martha's Vineyard?
	Never.
	Never.
	And I'm not sure our Listeners really care that much about where I've been, unless it's a place like Selma, Alabama, or Liberia, where there is a delightful racial story to tell.
	I don't think there's much in the way of racial stories to tell in Martha's Vineyard, unless you were to ask the people who live there what they think of diversity.
	Then you might get some interesting stories to tell.
	Well, Mr. Campbell, I bet they would praise it from afar and enjoy the lack of diversity from close quarters.
	So many white liberals.
	Well, Mr. Kersey, we had so many comments from listeners that I think we'll start with one of your stories, Lakin Riley.
	I haven't followed her that closely, but I'm glad to see that she's been getting a lot of attention.
	What do you have to add to the really relatively substantial coverage of this awful crime?
	Yeah, so my apologies.
	I thought we were going with the Haiti story first, so I was excited about that one.
	But this story is the one that Let's face it, this is going to become one of the main issues in the election.
	I know the area where this happened quite well, the University of Georgia.
	And Mr. Taylor, this story is infuriating the way it's written and the way that the GBI investigator talks about it.
	The story comes from us, from the New York Post, and it has the headline, Nursing student Lincoln Riley tried to call 911 before deadly encounter with migrant.
	Once again, there's that word migrant from the New York Post, nominally right-leaning.
	But again, this guy was an illegal alien.
	And Mr. Taylor, I don't know if you know this or not, but the police are not releasing the 911 call for the public yet, as of yet.
	Yes, I had heard that.
	So, nursing student Lincoln Riley, the white female who desperately tried to call 911 last week when a Venezuelan illegal alien pounced on her during a morning run, it was revealed.
	Police documents show Jose Antonio Iberra, 26, prevented the 22-year-old from dialing the emergency helpline before he dragged her body to a secluded area after the vicious attack.
	Ibear then panicked and likely bashed in her skull when Riley bravely tried to fight back, according to analysis by a former criminal profiler.
	Riley was found hours later on a University of Georgia campus with a disfigured skull.
	She died of blunt force trauma.
	The gruesome details of her injuries and new warrants suggest the Augusta University College of Nursing student likely fought back when she was grabbed during a run, and her killer likely panicked while trying to subdue her.
	Quote, In this case, the offender was met with resistance, which he wasn't expecting.
	And it got overpowering, and he couldn't control it, and he resorted to violence.
	This is the words of John Lane Jr., a former Georgia Bureau of Investigation investigator, he told the ABC affiliate in Atlanta.
	Quote, but he didn't know what he was in for, and I suspect she probably fought back, said Lane.
	He's not a very big fellow, and he may have been overwhelmed by her size and her strengths and tenacity to fight back.
	Mr. Taylor, when you hear me say what I just said, how disgusted are you?
	Well, clearly, they're turning this vicious criminal into something of a victim.
	Oh, the girl shouldn't have fought back.
	My gosh, no wonder.
	And she was big.
	Of course he had to kill her.
	Come on.
	No, no, this is utterly, utterly, profoundly disgusting.
	Quote, concealing her body, that's just an opportunity to distance himself from the crime.
	Ling went on, adding that investigators can't rule out sexual assault as a possible motive in the heinous crime.
	Quote, and looking at this whole thing, this is like a disorganized offender.
	That's what we call them.
	He's, he just does it on the spur of the moment for whatever motivating factors.
	Ibera, who is reportedly 5 foot 7 inches tall, is charged with malice murder, felony murder, aggravated battery, aggravated assault, false imprisonment, kidnapping, hindering a 911 call, and concealing the death of another.
	Riley was kidnapped and killed while she went out for a run on the University of Georgia campus in Athens, Georgia about two weeks ago.
	Documents accuse Iberra of causing great bodily harm with an object without specifying exactly what it was.
	He was also charged with aggravated battery for seriously disfiguring her body by disfiguring her skull.
	She had to have a closed casket at her funeral the other day, Mr. Taylor, and there were no there were no major newscasts there as there were, I believe, George Floyd's Funeral was broadcast on pretty much every cable news network, and I believe the network television station.
	And of course, the press was there for Emmett Till, and his mama deliberately held an open casket funeral just to show how disfigured he was.
	White people don't do that apparently, and sometimes maybe they should.
	And as we know, the Venezuelan suspect entered the USC legally in El Paso, Texas in 2023, and he
	twice slipped the hands of law enforcement. And he could have been deported after a big
	bust in the Big Apple in New York City, not that long ago. Mr. Taylor, one of the most interesting
	aspects of all this story is that this attack, this murder of the white Lincoln Riley, it
	happened almost on the exact date of the moment that the state of Georgia has told citizens they
	should run in memory of Ahmaud Abri.
	They should jog the two miles.
	What is it?
	Two miles and 2.24 miles?
	Isn't it?
	Is it Feb.
	22nd or Feb. 24?
	As you're asking that question, I'll look it up real quick, but, you know, just juxtapose those two stories.
	They both happened in the state of Georgia.
	Ahmaud Arbery became an international story.
	You know, Georgia got rid of the, not stand your ground law, but citizen's arrest law, correct?
	Yes, that's right.
	And they tried to claim that Ahmaud Arbery was jogging, when we know that wasn't the case.
	He was jogging, but he was also trespassing.
	Come on.
	He was jogging.
	He had other things to do, but he was also jogging.
	Well, and the horrible part of it is these were two guys who were out trying to keep the peace, trying to capture someone they considered a criminal.
	And this guy attacks them despite the fact that they tell him that they've got a gun.
	And no, the whole thing was an absolute horrible miscarriage of justice.
	In this case, Lake and Mark Reilly fought back for obvious good reasons.
	She wasn't facing a guy with a gun, and it sounds like she was fit enough she should have run.
	But be that as it may, the stories are completely different, but of course they've turned them utterly on their heads and made this Venezuelan rapist, or certainly murderer, into the victim, into almost a hero, an unwitting hero, and of course the white guys, the villains, and are spending the rest of their lives in jail.
	No, it is ironic that this happened practically on Ahmaud Arbery Day.
	You're quite right to point that out.
	Mr. Taylor, it was on February 22, 2022, that the state of Georgia formally memorialized Ahmaud Arbery.
	The second anniversary of his death, the Georgia General Assembly passed a resolution declaring February 23rd to be Ahmed Arbery Day in perpetuity.
	Lawmakers called Mr. Arbery one of the state's most distinguished citizens and declared that he suffered a senseless loss of life because of the color of his skin.
	That's just tall tales and nonsense start to finish.
	Well, okay, Lincoln Riley.
	I'm very glad that Donald Trump has mentioned her.
	Of course, he mentioned Kate Steinle.
	Kate Steinle was the lady who was murdered by another illegal immigrant in San Francisco at the time, in 2016, when Mr. Trump was running the first time.
	But I'm very glad whenever any of these horrible murders get attention, although it's never nearly as much as they deserve.
	You know, Mr. Taylor, we might be two of the only people who have actually noticed the strange coincidence of this because Lakin Riley was murdered on February 22nd.
	Well, you noticed it, not I. I take no credit for that, Mr. Kersey.
	Wow.
	Good for you.
	And again, you're supposed to run, the state of Georgia said that you should run 2.23 miles in honor of Mr. Arbery.
	Oh, of course he would.
	but the state of Georgia.
	Utterly.
	I believe Brian Kemp even said this, the governor of Georgia, Republican governor.
	So it just shows you how insane our country is.
	Utterly, utterly.
	Well, here's another scrap of insanity, a fairly substantial piece of insanity.
	And much of the insanity starts on the West Coast and moves east.
	This is certainly the case.
	This is from the Wall Street Journal, and it's an article written by the lady I always call a national treasure, Heather MacDonald.
	And these are the key sentences.
	Thanks to a 2020 law called the California Racial Justice Act, every non-white felon serving time in the state's prisons and jails can now retroactively challenge his conviction and sentencing on the ground of systemic bias.
	Yes, incarcerated prisoners need not show that the police, prosecutors, judge, or jurors in his case were motivated by racism or that the proceedings were unfair.
	If he can demonstrate in the past Criminal suspects of his race were arrested, prosecuted, or sentenced more often or more severely than members of other racial groups.
	He'll be entitled to a new trial.
	Now, if a defense expert seeks to show that defendants from one racial group, and let's just assume that these are blacks, were sentenced more harshly in the past than white defendants, he can ignore criminal history.
	In comparing the groups, he can ignore the heinousness of the crime.
	As long as they were charged under a similar statute, they will be deemed sufficiently comparable to build a case for prosecutorial racism.
	The Racial Justice Act's drafters and supporters justify the exclusion of criminal history from any kind of statistical analysis via circular reasoning.
	They claim criminal history is infected by the same bias that infects everything else in the criminal justice system.
	And so, if you've got a guy who's going to the big house for 20 years because he's done the same thing five times before, and you've got a white guy who's going to the big house for three years because he's never done it before, and the black guy did it with particular cruelty and heartlessness, you can compare them as identical crimes, and you can say the black guy gets a If a prosecutor tries to offer what the law calls race neutral reasons for either past prosecutions or the one under challenge, those reasons can themselves be discounted as a product of systemic and institutional racial bias.
	Racial profiling—historical patterns of racially biased policing and prosecution.
	In other words, if the guy's got four priors and he's going to the big house for longer, you can just say, well, he's got four priors only because of systemic racism.
	There's no way out of the presumption of racial guilt on the part of the system.
	Moreover, when a felon in San Francisco contested his arrest and prosecution for having a loaded handgun in his car, a race expert testified that the arresting officer's use of the phrase high crime area demonstrated bias against people of color.
	The trial judge threw out that conclusion, but an appeals court reversed and allowed the felon's claim to proceed.
	He gets a new trial.
	What this means is we have to assume that every single racial group commits crimes of the same severity at exactly the same frequency, and if the criminal justice system responds to the fact that certain groups commit more awful crimes and they do it more often, that itself is not something that is caused by the criminals themselves.
	That is a result of racism itself.
	This is just an astonishing state of affairs, and as Heather McDonald points out, The justice system is going to be absolutely swamped by all these filings.
	The defense lawyer's bar is licking its chops at the prospect of springing who knows how many people out of jail or getting a new trial.
	Insanity.
	A lot of hours for these lawyers you just mentioned and a lot of movies to be optioned into Netflix shows to show just how evil and systemically racist the prison system is.
	If you actually zero in on what these black perps did, I don't think it's going to paint a pretty picture.
	It's not going to paint a pretty picture at all.
	But you said this is part of the insanity of our times.
	It is absolutely cuckoo crazy.
	And the other thing is, there'll be thousands and thousands of hours of valuable court time chewed up by these retrials.
	The other problem with the retrial is, depending on how old the case is, important witnesses can be dead, or you may not be able to find them, memories fade away.
	And if you were to take just about any trial, and you have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that somebody's guilty, As time goes by, even if the same guy, the same crime, the same circumstances, it becomes harder to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he's guilty because memories fade and witnesses disappear.
	Sometimes evidence disappears.
	This is just insanity of the first water.
	So there you go.
	Now let's move on to a story By National Public Radio, my favorite source.
	When I'm doing the dishes or doing chores, I listen to NPR to find out what the fashionable people in America are supposed to think.
	It is guaranteed.
	Whatever NPR says we're supposed to think, just think the opposite and you'll be in good shape.
	Now, this is a story about—it starts with Christopher Santiago.
	He recalls being skeptical the first time he heard about basic income.
	In other words, giving people cash on no conditions how to spend it.
	Here.
	Money.
	Take it.
	You know, booze, gambling, girls.
	But a year from now, Santiago has been getting $500 a month through one of the largest cash aid pilots in the U.S.
	And he's come around.
	He's come around.
	He thinks it's okay after all, Mr. Kersey.
	I'm astonished.
	$500 a month?
	I guess it's okay after all, says Christopher Santiago.
	Well, he's a single dad, and he has three children, and this happy family of four lives in Alsip, Illinois.
	And he was one of 233,000 people who applied for the program in Cook County, which includes Chicago.
	Only 233,000 people wanted $500 a month for free?
	Well, anyway, then there was a lottery to pick the 3,250 participants, and Mr. Kersey, this guy's a public employee.
	I don't know what he does for a living, but his income is towards the upper end of the program cutoff.
	The upper end.
	I wonder what the program cutoff is.
	NPR does not unbosom that information.
	But he says it hardly feels like enough to feed his family of four.
	But it now means he can provide more for his children, including ballet classes, a birthday visit to Disney on Ice, and family trips.
	Well, ballet classes for the girls.
	Maybe for the boys, too.
	Who knows?
	Pretty nice if you ask me.
	Cash aid without conditions was considered a radical idea before the pandemic.
	I still consider it a radical idea.
	But early results from a program in Stockton, California showed promise.
	Yep, I'm sure the people just loved it.
	Then interest exploded after it became clear how much COVID stimulus checks and emergency rental payments helped people.
	Was that a surprise?
	People like free money, says Tony Preckwinkle.
	Preckwinkle.
	I wonder what kind of name that is.
	Sounds Dutch.
	She's president of the Cook County Board of Commissioners.
	They can invest in their families in ways that make them more productive and more stable over time.
	But the federal government is really the only entity that has the resources to do this on the mass scale that it needs to be done, she says.
	Now, apparently there have been more than 150 no-strings-attached basic income pilots and accounting in the country.
	More than 150 of these!
	You know, don't you think with a few experiments we'd know what the data are?
	150!
	Wow, everybody's just loving to press free money into the hands of poor folk.
	When Cook County's two-year pilot ends, Peckwinkle has vowed to use the county's own budget to keep it going.
	Apparently it's on donated funds now.
	These goofy white people just can't think of anything better to do with their money than give it away.
	No strings attached.
	Advocates for basic income say it's not meant to replace other assistance, but to add to it.
	Now, here's another beneficiary.
	Her name is Taylor Raquel.
	That's her first name.
	It's all one word.
	Capital T, capital R for Taylor Raquel Adams.
	Says the 500 she gets each month from Cook County is a blessing.
	She's 42, single, and no children.
	I would have thought everybody would have to have children.
	But the cash aid let her buy Christmas presents for the first time in a while, and it allowed her to splurge on a pedicure for her birthday, what she calls pamper-me time.
	That's just what we want welfare recipients to be spending their money on, pedicures and pamper-me time.
	Then there is Matt Harvey.
	He and his girlfriend live separately, but he did most of the parenting for their toddler son while she worked, so he was a stay-at-home dad.
	Harvey says the payments lowered his stress and made him feel more like I'm contributing.
	Contributing, Mr. Kersey?
	This guy gets found money.
	Money drops out of the sky, but now he's contributing.
	Mmm, I'm so happy for him.
	I'm sure psychologically that is just an invaluable boost.
	But, according to NPR, so far, with one- or two-year cash aid pilots, researchers say there's been no significant impact on whether people have jobs.
	Well, why would you expect them to get jobs?
	They got free money!
	Why on earth would you expect them to work?
	Good grief!
	Give people $500 a month for free, and if they're not already working, they're going to go out and work?
	These people are nuts.
	We used the word insanity earlier.
	Well, this is more insanity.
	Some parents, though, have cut back on gig work.
	Well, of course they would, to spend more time, allegedly, with their children, but maybe at the racetrack.
	NPR would never tell us that.
	So, that is the latest from National Public Radio and National Panhandler Radio.
	Every time they get these fundraising campaigns, then I have to go elsewhere for my fashionable news.
	But, Mr. Kersey, yes, let us talk about Haiti.
	Do enlighten us on the fine things happening on that tropical island.
	Mr. Taylor, before we get there, I'd like to actually ask if you've ever read a book.
	I've read several books.
	All right.
	Well, have you ever read Sir Spencer St.
	John's Haiti or the Black Flag?
	That book I've never read.
	This was a gentleman who went to Haiti back in 1889, and I have a second edition copy.
	He was formerly Her Majesty's Minister Resident and Council General to Haiti.
	So he went there, and this is his general description of Haiti in the introduction.
	Mind you, this was written in 1889.
	Whilst living in Port-au-Prince, Don Mariano Alvarez, my Spanish colleague, remarked to me, Mon ami, if we could return to Haiti fifty years hence, we should find the Negroses cooking their bananas on the site of these warehouses.
	This judgment is severe, yet from what we saw passing under the Salomon administration, it is more than probable, unless in the meantime influenced by some higher civilization, Rapid decadence?
	this prophecy will remain true. In fact, the Negresses are already cooking their bananas
	amid the ruins of the best houses of the Capitol. My own impression, after personally knowing
	the Haitian Republic above 25 years, is that it is a country in a state of rapid decadence."
	Rapid decadence. Hmm. Okay.
	"...that the revolution of 1843 that upset President Boyer commenced the era of troubles
	which have continued to the present day and the people have since been steadily falling
	to the rear in the race of civilization."
	Mr. Taylor, those words were written and published in a book that was published by Scribner and Welford.
	It was, you know, this was a very, very prominent individual who wrote those words back in 1889 and I'm afraid those words still hold true in 2024, just as they did in 1989.
	Well, you know, I don't know about this.
	At least they're not eating their bananas raw.
	I eat most of my bananas raw, Mr. Kersey, but actually bothering to cook them shows a high level of civilization in my view.
	There aren't any bananas left in Haiti at this point.
	So this is the big news right now, ladies and gentlemen, and I'll stop laughing because we already know that Oh, gosh, what's that program?
	The Temporary Relief Program that has helped resettle— Temporary Protected Status.
	Yeah, that's right.
	Temporary Protected Status, TPS, which, you know, there are hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan, Haitians, Dominican Republicans, El Salvador, people from El Salvador in our country because of TPS.
	And you can only imagine the Biden admin is licking their chops when they hear the story of how many people they can bring over.
	Here's the headline.
	U.S.
	fears Haiti could fall at any time as doubts grow over Biden's backup Kenya plan.
	U.S.
	governor officials have grown alarmed that the Haiti National Police could begin to crumble within hours.
	This story was just published on March 7th in the year of our Lord 2024.
	Going back to the story, and that a long-planned multinational mission led by Kenya to provide reinforcements May not be enough to save the country from a complete descent into gang control.
	Let me repeat that last line.
	From a complete descent into gang control.
	Well, it might not be worse than the way the governments of that country operate.
	Mr. Kersey, look on the bright side.
	Well, it's hard knowing that there are 13 to 17 million Haitians who would love to be in the United States of America as soon as possible.
	Outgunned, Haitian police have been battling a united front of gangs and losing key firefights.
	Now, a potential power void in a collapsed Haitian government that had already faced a skeptical public risks undermining whatever morale is left among the public forces.
	The government could fall at any time, a U.S.
	official told McClatchy, speaking on the condition of anonymity, to candidly discuss the government assessment.
	Quote, if the HNP dissolves as an effective counterforce, if we see the airport or the presidential palace fall, it's over.
	I thought, for some reason, I thought the presidential palace, Mr. Taylor, had collapsed in Port-au-Prince during that earthquake about a decade ago.
	I thought so, too.
	I think that must be, figuratively speaking, the building itself is still rubble.
	They haven't bothered to build it.
	But, you know, black people built America, but they can't build that building.
	Which, of course, was built by the Marines, I believe, in the decade preceding the Great War, World War I. The Biden admin is moving urgently to expedite the deployment of a multinational security support mission, or MSS, that has been in the works for over a year and a half.
	Kenya has pledged to lead the mission and committed 1,000 police officers to the effort last fall.
	But the force size of the Haitian National Police is Orders of magnitude less than required, the U.S.
	official added.
	Adding 1,000 more boots on the ground, even if they were well-armed, well-trained, and deployed immediately, is unlikely to meet the demand of the crisis.
	Now, President Biden, the Biden admin, has ruled out contributing U.S.
	forces to the mission, with Pentagon leadership fiercely opposed to any deployment.
	Quote, the situation in Port-au-Prince remains extremely fragile as sporadic attacks have continued and all flights in and out of Haiti remain canceled.
	The Secretary General reiterates the need for urgent action, including financing for the multinational security support mission to tackle the security needs of the people of Haiti.
	End quote.
	Now, Mr. Taylor, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that about a year ago, maybe two years ago, we joked about taking a flight to Port-au-Prince and doing a tour of Haiti to see what the future of the United States might look like.
	But I guess we can just go to Jackson, Mississippi or Selma or maybe Baltimore and get a better view.
	Maybe Birmingham, too.
	Yeah, we can actually fly into those places.
	But then that's not realistic.
	If you can actually fly in, it's not what America is going to be like if Haiti is pointing the way.
	To me, it was only half a joke really.
	I'd love to go to Haiti, but now does not seem like the best time to be going.
	Like I said, I mean, and you might be too low class for the Haitians.
	Again, they actually cook their bananas.
	You eat them raw, as you said.
	I know, I know, I know.
	I'm a savage by comparison.
	Boy, they're going to lick down their noses at me.
	This primitive honky, gosh, doesn't know how to eat a banana.
	You're a proof of the ice people theory, that one person, that one black nationalist author.
	People of the sun versus people of the ice.
	True.
	Dirac said the United Nations has not been given a time frame for the arrival of the force.
	Whenever the MSS does arrive, it remains unclear how Kenyan forces and leadership who speak English and Swahili will operate with a French and Creole language Haitian force.
	Also, of course, this article fails to mention the practice of voodoo is well known on this island.
	You also have to wonder, Mr. Taylor, what the Dominican Republican, what those in the Dominican Republic are thinking right now.
	They've got that massive fence they built, this massive wall.
	I know what they're thinking.
	I know very well what they're thinking.
	They're thinking, let's hope the fence holds.
	That's what they're thinking.
	Geez, what a crazy, crazy story.
	You know, the last time they had an African force in there that was supposed to be keeping the peace, they ended up spreading cholera and they buggered little boys and they molested little girls.
	It was really not a pretty picture.
	So, what you're saying, it was just another day in Africa?
	Another day in Africa.
	That's what you get when you go to Haiti, another day in Africa.
	Just to finish up here, it's not unclear whether the MSS in partnership with the Haitian police is large enough to reclaim any of the critical infrastructure already under gang control or neighborhoods across the capital that have led to more than 314,000 Haitians being displaced from their homes.
	Again, the TPS, who knows how many Haitians We're on the verge of being airlifted out of there.
	You know, the United States government, they could probably, within a couple days, send some Army Corps of Engineers down there to get the Port-au-Prince Airport working.
	We already know what the Biden admin flew 300,000 plus illegal aliens all across the country.
	I'm sure they would love to fly three million Haitians and, you know, put them in Cody, Wyoming, or Boise, Idaho, or, you know, I thought you were going to say put them in three-star hotels, but that's part of the story, too.
	No, no.
	Five-star, five-star.
	Sorry.
	Haitians deserve to, yeah, five-star after all the horror of having to live around Haitians.
	Enjoying, well not enjoying, but watching your nation collapse, of course, as it has been since the revolution in San Domingo back in, what was it, 1793 when all the whites were killed and then all the mulattoes were killed by the blacks.
	I mean, if you guys haven't read Luther Stoddard's book on the revolution in San Domingo, I highly recommend getting a copy of that.
	A phenomenal book.
	I was turning over in my mind.
	I wonder what would happen if we emptied Our prisons, you know, they have had these jailbreaks.
	They've got thousands of people.
	The two biggest prisons in Port-au-Prince have been emptied by the gangs, and I guess they're now getting reinforcements so they can help topple the government.
	I wonder what it would be like if we somehow dropped off our prison's worth of black gangs.
	I wonder how they'd fit in.
	They'd probably really do very well, although they don't speak Creole or French either, but they'd figure out some way to communicate, I bet.
	I might be getting morbid here, but that would make one heck of a Netflix show.
	I mean, you just basically try and get cameras everywhere, and I think that would be the most watched program in the history of streaming television.
	It would just be fascinating.
	Reality TV, yes.
	It would be Lord of the Flies Africa Edition.
	Wow, yes, yes.
	The Crips and the Bloods meet Commander Butt-Naked.
	Of course, he was a Liberian.
	Wait, wait a second.
	You have to, you have to, I believe Commander Butt Naked was from Liberia, wasn't he?
	Yes, he was Liberia.
	Yeah, but you know, it's all kind of, you know, not much of a difference in my view.
	Liberia, Haiti, blood of the Crips.
	Anyway, you know, once upon a time, Mr. Kersey, I owned a North Face sleeping bag.
	It was a pretty good sleeping bag.
	In fact, it still is a pretty good sleeping bag, although I don't use sleeping bags very often.
	But I am rethinking my affection for my North Face sleeping bag because the company now offers customers 20% off for learning about anti-racism for one hour.
	I don't know how many times you can get your 20% off privilege, but The course says, speaking of privilege, privilege can give you access to the outdoors.
	In this particular context, we refer to white privilege, meaning that your race and skin color can give you access to the outdoors when others can be excluded because of historic, enduring racism and biases.
	Now, I suppose I'm being excessively practical, but what are these biases and enduring racism that keep black people or anybody else from taking a walk outdoors or going to a park?
	I don't get it.
	But white privilege means you can go to the Grand Canyon, but Leroy can't.
	Now, the course apparently says that people of color are barred from sports because they lack white privilege.
	Happens in football and basketball and track and field all the time, as we know.
	The course told its attendees that being an ally meant combating racism on the systemic and personal level.
	I'm going to go out and fight the system every day of my life.
	As for a personal level, the North Face course asks customers to check in with your privilege and continue to learn through others the impact that racism can have in society and how that manifests itself Boy, oh boy, boy.
	As we know, it's just a never-ending struggle for white people.
	You will never achieve that state of non-racism.
	I hate to step in here.
	It's just like the advice we gave to people earlier about joining the military.
	If you want 20% off and you're black, can you take the course?
	Or do you just get 20% off without taking the course?
	I hate to step in here. I mean, again, it's just like the advice we gave to people earlier
	about joining the military. If you're going to learn great skills, suck it up.
	A couple years, get through it.
	If you want to get a really nice North Face jacket for 20% off, just laugh as you're taking the test and get 20% off.
	Well, you've got to spend an hour doing it.
	Oh, I'm sure it's no different than any other aspect of our lives, because we're bombarded by this 24-7.
	At least get a discount for it.
	Well, but hey, wait a minute, Mr. Kersey.
	Wait just a minute.
	In order to get the 20% discount, After you have taken the test, you need to agree to engage in allyship and activism.
	So you would have to lie in order to get that 20%.
	That's not playing the white man, Mr. Kersey, if you are going to lie to get your 20%.
	Maybe that's why the white man's losing.
	White man is losing.
	Yes, indeed.
	But no, really, I am curious about this.
	If I'm black and I'm going to decide to fight those enduring barriers, and despite all of these horrible barbed wire barricades of white privilege keeping me from the Grand Tetons, I'm going to go brave the Grand Tetons, do I get my 20% off if I sit through this, too?
	And I guess, I don't know, I guess a black person cannot engage in allyship.
	I don't think blacks themselves can be allies, because they are the main course.
	They're not allies.
	Anyway, that's the North Face for you these days.
	And let's see.
	Oh, now, this is a great story.
	I've never heard of actor Terence Howard.
	I'm sure you probably have, because he is important enough to have his very own star in the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
	Of course, when I walked the Hollywood Walk of Fame, I would say about three quarters of people's names were utterly unknown to me.
	But in any case, Terrence Howard, he's a big deal.
	Apparently, he's even been nominated for an Oscar, although he failed to win one.
	He has said that it is immoral for the United States government to charge taxes to the descendants of slaves, of which he presumably is one.
	This is after he was ordered to pay nearly a million dollars in back taxes.
	He's saying not one dime for you, racist Uncle Sam.
	A federal judge in Philadelphia ordered the Academy Award-nominated actor to pay his bill.
	And for more than a year, the 54-year-old star of the TV hit Empire, which I've never watched, refused to cooperate.
	Now, the Justice Department thereupon sued Howard in 2022.
	And after they refused to get him in court, he sent a voicemail message and left it on the phone of the case's lead lawyer.
	Geez!
	Yes.
	And he said to her, he said he denied owing anything and threatened to shame her by posting the lawsuit against him on the Internet.
	As if a lawyer who's trying to collect a million dollars in back taxes is going to be ashamed of having this posted on the Internet.
	And of course, Howard thinks he's not going to be ashamed at all.
	Then he goes on to say, and this is really the central point here, 400 years of forced labor and never receiving any compensation for it.
	He's talking about himself personally, I guess.
	Now, you have the gall to try and prosecute and charge taxes to the descendants of a broken people that you are responsible for causing the breakage.
	In truth, the entire United States should, by default, become the property of the descendants of slaves.
	But since you do not have the ability or the courage to do it, let's try this in court.
	We're going to bring you down.
	Now, that sounds almost like a threat to me.
	But here's a guy, I mean, you don't pay A million dollars in back taxes, unless you have a pretty fat paycheck.
	This guy is not suffering.
	This guy is not some ghetto panhandler.
	But he refused to pay his taxes because he's the son of slaves, and the entire United States should, by default—by default, Mr. Kersey—be the property of the descendants of slaves.
	You know, the crazy thing about this is, I'm sure he actually believes this.
	Many, many, many blacks believe this, this idea that blacks built America, so they own it.
	This is now—I mean, there's a Disney Plus children's video In which they say, slaves built this country.
	Slaves built this country.
	We demand reparations.
	Have you seen that little video?
	It is absolutely poisonous.
	But this is what Disney Plus thinks our children should be teething on.
	Well, Mr. Taylor, if I could be very blunt here, descendants of slaves who rebelled and killed all white people in Haiti have basically been living and seeing their descendants, their posterity, Exist thanks to white altruism and at any moment once that stops, you know They'd be cracking the marrow out of skulls within a week If you didn't have anybody actually caring about what's going on in Haiti and you know, Terrence Howard, let's just be blunt this is a guy who was on the show Empire if you recall Jesse Smollett and
	He was also a bit actor on that program, on that show.
	That's right.
	I'd forgotten that he was an imperialist, so to speak.
	Yeah, so it's also tiresome.
	And at some point, it's basically just going to take someone to say, you know what, dude, shut up.
	Like what?
	It's over.
	Stop.
	We're not listening to this anymore.
	And just arrest this guy.
	And you know what?
	Haul him into jail very publicly.
	Yes.
	I agree.
	I agree.
	I made a video that's going to come out tomorrow on this whole idea of reparations and the extent to which I think white people have no idea that black people take this stuff very, very seriously.
	When a state like California or New York State did it just last December.
	They voted a law to set up a commission to look into reparations.
	What are white people thinking?
	What on earth?
	In California, they decided that blacks deserve $1.2 million.
	What is New York's figure going to be?
	$3 million?
	I don't know.
	And of course it's not going to be paid.
	And then black people are going to hate us all the more.
	Here are all these important blue ribbon panels saying, you know, the state owes you a million dollars, or the country owes you $800,000.
	Where's our checks?
	And they're going to think they're going to take it out of our hides one way or another.
	I mean, maybe knock over a Gucci store or, well, there's a prosperous looking guy, Paul Kersey, walking down the street.
	He's got a nice watch on his hand.
	Boy, corporations.
	I'm going to take that.
	This is absolutely stupid and poisonous.
	White people are fools to get sucked into this, even in the slightest way.
	Ideally, this New York Commission would issue a report saying, we don't owe you people a dime.
	You are much better off living here than if you'd been stuck in Africa and hadn't been sold into slavery by your own kinfolk.
	But they're not going to say that, of course.
	It is just so idiotic.
	But I will shamelessly tout my video that's coming out tomorrow.
	I look forward to watching that.
	In the meantime, in the meantime, A former St.
	Louis middle school principal pleaded guilty to charges in federal court after admitting he hired his friend to kill his pregnant girlfriend.
	This is a middle school principal.
	Cornelius Green, formerly principal at Carr Lane Visual and Performing Arts Middle School.
	Performing Arts.
	Well, he was performing.
	He paid Philip Cutler, a pal of his, $2,500 to murder 30-year-old teacher Jocelyn Peters. $2,500.
	Boy, life is cheap among our African-American fellow citizens.
	Green stole the money from a school fund for a field trip, and he mailed it to Cutler via UPS using the school's address as a return address.
	Green, the principal, pleaded guilty to charges of murder for hire, and if he is sentenced to life in prison, according to the plea agreement, state charges of two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of armed criminal action and one count of burglary.
	We'll be dropped.
	I guess he's been burgling this girlfriend's place, too.
	Well, anyway, Peters, the lady teacher who was killed, she was a third grade teacher at nearby Mann Elementary School and was more than 27 weeks pregnant with Greene's child.
	Cut with a hitman, showed up in St.
	Louis three days before he killed Peters, fatally shot her with a 3D caliber pistol while she was sleeping And he used a potato as a silencer.
	Now, Mr. Kersey, huh, that's the first I've ever heard of somebody using a potato as a silencer.
	Perhaps you got the whole concept of a potato gun incorrect.
	Maybe.
	Have you ever heard of such a thing?
	I don't think a potato would work.
	A potato would be blown to bits, and I don't think it would have any effect on the detonation sound.
	But in any case, he used a potato as a silencer.
	This is what ticked me finally into using this story, this potato as a silencer.
	That was just too cute to be left out.
	As it turns out, the school principal, Mr. Green, who hired his pal to rub out his pregnant girlfriend, At the time, he was married to another woman, and he was also involved in several other romantic relationships.
	This boy gets around.
	High-T guy.
	High-T guy.
	Green's sentencing is scheduled for June 5th at 10 a.m.
	Well, I could make that, you know?
	It sounds like quite a show.
	Cutler's trial, that's the hitman's trial on federal murder for charge, murder for hire, That's slated to begin March 11th, so that's coming right up.
	Now, this is a drama, needless to say, with an all-black cast.
	But $2,500?
	Really?
	To kill somebody?
	Wow.
	Anyway, Mr. Kersey, we have five minutes left for your Headless and Armless Torso.
	All right, so this is a story that's really taken over social media.
	And it's because the gentleman in question just appeared— Gentlemen, gentlemen, come on.
	I'm sorry.
	I give everyone the benefit of the doubt because it's alleged.
	Again, it's alleged.
	That's that white man.
	That's our fallacy.
	We play by these rules and this nomenclature and logic and reason.
	You must call a spade a spade, sir.
	I was gonna say something else but I won't.
	Bronx headless torso leads to murder rap against ex-con turned activist Sheldon Johnson Jr.
	A high-profile black ex-con turned anti-violence activist who recently guested on Joe Rogan's hit podcast was charged with murder Thursday after he was caught with a headless armless torso in a Bronx apartment.
	It can happen to anybody.
	That's a heck of a lead paragraph.
	Mr. Taylor, Joe Rogan is the number one podcast.
	Even I have heard of Joe Rogan!
	He's the number one podcast.
	This guy gets paid a quarter of a billion dollars for his podcast rights.
	Why don't we?
	Well, we would if it was a fair world.
	Four years ago, when the YouTube channel got taken down, there were 30,000 plus subscribers, even though we didn't promote the bloody YouTube channel.
	Who knows how many?
	An order of magnitude more, probably, by this point.
	But the point is, Joe Rogan, the number one podcaster on the planet, had this guy on less than a month ago.
	And now, as I said, a legend.
	Murder of a headless, armless torso.
	Police took Sheldon Johnson Jr.
	in for questioning after residents at his apartment building heard what sounded like gunshots around 1 a.m.
	According to law enforcement, the 48-year-old was charged with murder, manslaughter, and weapon possession for allegedly killing 44-year-old Colin Small.
	Johnson Jr.
	turned to advocacy work after spending 25 years in an upstate prison for a 1997 robbery he committed in his early 20s.
	He was released in May of 2023, record show.
	Quote, he was basically told by an African-American judge that you don't matter, you don't count, and I'm gonna throw your life away, said attorney Josh Dubin, who appeared as a guest on the February 1st episode of Joe Rogan, alongside Sheldon Johnson.
	Cops weren't notified of the sound of gunshots until the building's super, who complained that a neighbor waited hours before informing him of the disturbance, called for a wellness check.
	Responding officers were directed to a sixth floor apartment where a man opened the door.
	Inside, they found the torso, which was attached to the victim's leg, but missing both arms and a head.
	Stuffed inside a blue bin.
	Where's all the blood at that point?
	Upon reviewing the building's security feed, the super recovered footage of a man who appears to be Johnson Jr.
	entering and exiting the building's elevator carrying garbage bags and containers, including a blue bin.
	He is seen wearing various outfits, including a newsboy cap and blazer, a boonie hat, a beige jacket, and a blonde woman's wig with a down puffer.
	Johnson's family was the subject of an expansive 2016 BuzzFeed profile detailing a legacy of crime that began with Johnson Jr.' 's father, Sheldon Johnson Sr., whose corrupt influence infected the lives of both his son and grandson.
	Deaf and addicted to crack, cocaine, and heroin, Johnson Sr.
	was arrested for raping his seven-year-old daughter three times and forced his son to translate for him during drug deals, according to the now-defunct BuzzFeed.
	He blamed himself for instilling the behavior in Johnson Jr.
	that would leave him staring down a 50-year prison sentence as a young man.
	Generation to generation, it all stems from me, Johnson Sr.
	told a BuzzFeed reporter.
	I feel disappointed.
	I regret a lot of decisions I made in my life.
	It enters my mind all the time.
	A big, huge amount of guilt.
	I ruined everything.
	Wait, wait, wait.
	Who's talking now?
	The guy who got caught with a headless, armless torso, or his father?
	His father.
	His father's explaining what... That was his father who was arrested for raping a seven-year-old daughter and son.
	But now we go back to this.
	Johnson Jr.' 's son, so the grandson of Johnson Sr., also named Sheldon Johnson, made headlines in 2008 when he attacked a 24-year-old Columbia University graduate student, Mingou Yu, near the corner in New York City.
	Punching his face, punching his victim's face reportedly in the face.
	Hugh stumbled into traffic in an attempt to flee his teenage attacker but was struck and killed by a passing SUV.
	The younger Johnson was charged with manslaughter for Hugh's death and would spend 18 months Okay.
	in a juvenile detention boot camp.
	Okay.
	That's it, that's all he had to do, 18 months.
	Okay.
	On Joe Bogan's podcast, Dubin called Johnson Jr. a miracle
	and told the show's host that Johnson Jr.
	had been unfairly targeted for the 1997 robbery that left his victim with a mere two stitches.
	Well, you know, I think I've heard about enough about this guy, Mr. Kersey,
	unless there are more piquant details that you insist on imparting.
	No, there's no more except for saying that Joe Rogan should have you on his podcast for three or four hours.
	Traversing of every racial issue that most people avoid, yet they all know to be true.
	You know, I must say, I've been on—I've had many guests as podcasts, you, every week, but many others, and not a single one of them has ever been caught with a headless, armless torso in his apartment.
	And I hope that they never— That's right, you never know.
	Well, ladies and gentlemen, our time has run out, as it always does.
	And it is such a pleasure, such an honor, and such a joy to spend this time with you.
	And I speak for Paul Kersey with complete confidence when I say we are deeply, greatly looking forward to spending this time with you again next week.
