Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to Radio Renaissance. | |
I'm your host, Jerry Taylor, with American Renaissance. | |
And today is May 30th, Year of Our Lord 2024. | |
Just before I got on the air, I heard the news that Donald Trump is guilty on all counts. | |
Well, I haven't had much time to think about this or read what others are writing about it, but I do have a couple of things to say anyway, which I will go ahead and do recklessly. | |
One is, I predict with 100% confidence that the left will delight in always attaching the words, convicted felon, to the name of Donald Trump. | |
He'll be convicted felon, convicted felon, convicted felon, every time they talk about him. | |
I'm sure there are scenes of rejoicing in virtually every newsroom in the country. | |
All Democrats are slapping each other on the back and thinking Alvin Bragg is just the greatest prosecutor who ever walked the earth in the United States. | |
Of that, I'm confident. | |
The other is, I suspect that there was tremendous pressure in that jury room. | |
Even if one person wanted to hold out and say there was not evidence beyond a reasonable doubt. | |
If somebody said, look, here's a reasonable doubt. | |
There is a considerable doubt. | |
And here's another pretty reasonable doubt. | |
The pressure on him was so tremendous, I bet it was about a thousand pounds per square inch. | |
And anybody who had been a holdout, his name would have been mud. | |
In fact, I believe the New York Times wrote about that very phenomenon. | |
In effect, putting pressure, intimidating the jurors, making sure that they do the right thing by the New York Times' standards. | |
In any case, what a country. | |
What a country. | |
And we will see what effect this has on the electorate and if it means that Donald Trump actually wins. | |
It will go to show you how profoundly alienated millions and millions and millions of voters | |
are from the system the way it works. | |
They will vote for a man who is officially a convicted felon, who is officially a fascist about to abolish democracy. | |
And they will do this in the teeth of an intense gale of propaganda, | |
anti-Trump propaganda. | |
And as I say, this just goes to show you how intensely divided, | |
how intensely at loggerheads this country is. | |
What a country, I repeat myself. | |
Well, ordinarily, Paul Kersey would be my co-host and be at my side, but he is not. | |
I will struggle on without him, with every expectation that he'll be rejoining me next week. | |
As usual, we begin with comments from listeners. | |
One writes in to say, I have a correction. | |
With the news story about a Dutch lawyer who has been persecuted for free speech in the Netherlands, you thought that the last part of her name, spelled S-T-I-J-N, was probably pronounced Steen. | |
However, it's pronounced Stein, like wine or twine. | |
I am currently learning Dutch. | |
What a nice way to be learning Dutch. | |
So, the name is Stein and not Steen. | |
Another comment. | |
This, once again, has to do with how to pronounce names. | |
I must have just been stumbling around all podcasts last week. | |
The commenter writes, you talked about the candidates for President of Mexico in Sunday's upcoming election, and one of them has the last name Galvez. | |
Her first name spelled X-O-C-H-I-T-L. | |
And I challenge any of our non-Hispanic, non-Spanish, or non-Mexican, non-Latino listeners to pronounce that correctly. | |
I think I pronounced it sho- well, I can't remember how I called it. | |
But in any case, X-O-C-H-I-T-L is pronounced sho-chi. | |
And it is a name of Nahuatl origin. | |
The Nahuatl, of course, are one of the indigenous tribes of Mexico. | |
It's a common name in Mexico and linked to its pre-Hispanic past. | |
As an aside, that X, that is a phoneme that's common in pre-Hispanic words and in fact had an analog in the Spanish That was spoken more than 500 years ago. | |
The name of the country, Mexico, was based on Mexica, pronounced Me-she-ca, so that X is a ch-ch-ch sound, and the Mexica were Indians living in the Valley of Mexico at that time. | |
That letter evolved into the guttural J in Spanish, as in Juan or Juarez, spelled with a J. And while that sound evolved, the spelling of México in Spanish, it's M-E-J-I-C-O, but it's M-E-X-I-C-O in Latin America. | |
So there you go. | |
We have another language lesson, thanks to our well-informed listeners. | |
Another commenter, I was wondering when the media talk about white Americans becoming a demographic minority, there's usually the term non-Hispanic white thrown around. | |
As we know, Hispanic whites exist in large numbers and make up the majority of countries such as Argentina and Chile, and considerable minorities in other South American countries. | |
Do you have any idea what the white population percentage of the United States is if we include those who are white Hispanics? | |
In other words, that's the question. | |
How many people that we consider white are actually Hispanics and counted as Hispanics? | |
As we know, non-Hispanic whites are projected to be a minority in the U.S. | |
around 2045, but if we were to include Hispanic whites, Minority status might come later. | |
Further, what's the need for this separate category for whites and non-Hispanic whites? | |
To me, race is a biological reality. | |
If someone is white, whether or not he's Hispanic shouldn't matter. | |
I agree. | |
I agree 100% that if you are Hispanic, you can be as Hispanic as you like, but if you are white, as far as I'm concerned, you're white. | |
I don't think it's useful. | |
I think people actually get into this idea because Hispanics are a group that is a pressure group. | |
They want to inflate their numbers as much as possible, and that's why they try to spread that category as much as they can, whether the Hispanic person is obviously American Indian or white. | |
And final question, and this is not a joke and not a coincidence, but it says, ask Senor Taylor And as I say, that's purely a coincidence. | |
Ask Señor Taylor what portion or percentage of our society he estimates to be racially conscious. | |
I suspect this person is asking about whites. | |
If it were what percentage of blacks or Hispanics or Asians, the number would be a considerable number. | |
In fact, there are probably hardly any black people at all who are not racially conscious. | |
But what about whites? | |
Our listener goes on to say there's been a massive uptick in media advertising that deliberately uses interracial couples. | |
If you go to the comments section or look at the emoji reactions of these advertisements, you usually see not only white people, but people of other races pushing back against this social engineering. | |
It makes me think that despite mass media's propaganda, a vast majority of people don't feel right about all this. | |
The issue of mixed-race advertising, that is different, or reacting to that, or wondering where that came from, is different from having a real white racial consciousness. | |
Even Joe Biden apparently noticed all of these mixed-race couples. | |
He seemed to be bemused and bewildered by it. | |
But that is not a white man with a racial consciousness by any stretch of the imagination. | |
So, how you react to this kind of advertising, many white people, probably even liberals, they smirk at it. | |
They say, uh-oh, there goes another pair, uh-oh, uh-oh. | |
But, entirely aside from this question of mixed-race advertising, I believe the number of racially conscious white people is growing all the time. | |
It's my feeling from the number of people who come to our website, the people I meet in various groups around the country, there is, it seems to me, a vastly, vastly increasing number of whites who really realize what crisis is at stake, who understand that they have a destiny and an identity as white people. | |
Now, so far, this increasing, this burgeoning white racial consciousness has no appearance whatsoever in American politics. | |
It's below ground, so to speak. | |
This is something that is happening on the internet. | |
It's happening in private groups. | |
And it will take some time, I believe, before it manifests itself politically, but I believe that kind of manifestation is inevitable. | |
Sometime, sometime, pretty soon, white identity politics will come out of the closet, just like gay politics did, just like tranny politics are up to now. | |
White identity politics will come. | |
I feel quite confident about that. | |
Now, moving on to our first story. | |
And this is, oh, so many of our stories, you could give the headline, never a dull moment in Diver's America. | |
And this one is about S.Q.U.A.D. | |
Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib. | |
She's Palestinian, of course. | |
She's paid hundreds of thousands of dollars since being elected to Congress to a consulting firm led by an anti-Israel activist who works on behalf of groups linked to Palestinian terrorist factions. | |
Tlaib, who often faces criticism from both Republicans and Democrats for her anti-Jewish, anti-Israel talk and defense of the phrase calling for the destruction of the Jewish state, well that is what this newspaper can't. | |
That's how they characterize from the river to the sea, Palestine shall be free. | |
I don't think that necessarily is calling for the destruction of the Jewish state. | |
But some people who are sensitive to that idea think it means that. | |
But she has delivered more than $435,000 in payments for fundraising consulting since 2020. | |
$435,000 for fundraising. | |
This is from her campaign and leadership pack. | |
And she has paid this to a company called Unbought Power. | |
I like that name. | |
Unbought power. | |
Well, I suspect if $435,000 comes your way, even if your name is unbought, I suspect some of your power has just been bought. | |
In any case, this Florida-based corporation is operated by Rasha Mubarak. | |
Mubarak, of course, is an Egyptian name. | |
A close ally of Tlaib's. | |
A joint fundraising committee for members of the squad, including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Cori Bush, Ilhan Omar, oh, what lovely Congress folk they are, has also paid the firm run by Mubarak over $86,000. | |
Now, Ms. | |
Mubarak once, she said she was tired of hearing the lie that Israel has the right to defend itself against terrorism. | |
Well, no right to defend itself against terrorism. | |
No less an institution the Biden White House has sought to distance itself from CAIR, that's the Council on American-Islamic Relations, because after the Hamas-led attack on October 7th against Israel, CAIR's national director, Nihad Awad, said he was happy to see Palestinians breaking the siege that day. | |
So, isn't this interesting? | |
Diversity is such a wonderful thing, a wonderful thing. | |
We see it in all sorts of places, and I am happy to see that it's causing a rift largely amongst the Democrats. | |
Let them devour each other. | |
Let them fight it out. | |
What's happening in the Middle East could be viewed as something that has not a great deal of relevance to the United States, but those who are committed to those parts of the world, they certainly see it differently. | |
Now, here is a story that could be called babysitting the babies. | |
And, Mayor President Sharon Weston Broome, she is Mayor President of Baton Rouge. | |
Now, since when is the Mayor of Baton Rouge called Mayor President? | |
In any case, Mayor President Broome, she started her Summer of Hope program three years ago to combat violence. | |
The idea was that special events would keep them from getting into trouble. | |
Now, even as the mayor appears to admit, that is something of a euphemism. | |
Because she goes on to say, in a press release in the mayor's office, she said the event was designed to focus on gun violence reduction, increasing positive summer activities, and providing proactive interventions in Baton Rouge's most vulnerable neighborhoods. | |
Okay, it's going to focus on gun violence reduction. | |
It's really very simple. | |
You keep the youth in the most vulnerable neighborhoods, and we know who those youth are. | |
You keep them entertained, diverted, and that is supposed to stop gun violence. | |
You've got to babysit them or they'll shoot each other. | |
The kickoff event was at Liberty Lagoon Waterpark, and people started lining up hours ahead of time. | |
Hours ahead of time. | |
The lines were horrific, said one of the teenagers. | |
We needed water. | |
People were passing out. | |
And many of the teenagers said that the lines were chaotic, even resulting in some physical altercations, says the news story. | |
Now that is a euphemism. | |
They were pounding on each other. | |
They were beating each other up. | |
The mayor's office, however, doesn't seem to be too worried. | |
It made a statement bragging, Thanks to the vigilant supervision of law enforcement, we were able to intervene quickly. | |
She goes on to say, with over 200 events planned, our aim is to create spaces for violence intervention and promote peace within our community. | |
200 babysitting events this summer! | |
200! | |
I wonder how much that costs! | |
Wow! | |
How many shootings do they manage to prevent with 200 events? | |
But violence intervention will promote peace. | |
Violence intervention. | |
That's what it's called, I guess. | |
But as the police just discovered at this first kickoff event, sometimes you have to resort to violent intervention as part of your violence intervention in order to keep the youth from being violent. | |
Yes, the police will have to intervene violently sometimes as part of this violent intervention program. | |
Moving on to Greater Idaho. | |
Greater Idaho, that is the movement that plans to join up parts of Oregon to Idaho. | |
But this Greater Idaho movement notched up another victory as Oregon's Crook County became the 13th county in Oregon to vote to secede from leftist domination. | |
and join like-minded neighbors to the east in Idaho. | |
About 53% of the voters approved a referendum recommending that county leaders engage in continued negotiations regarding a potential relocation of the Oregon-Idaho border so as to include Crook County. | |
The group said that the final tally was as close as it was, 53% of voting in favor, only because something called Western State Strategies poured money into a no campaign. | |
It calls Greater Idaho, the movement, a social justice nonprofit. | |
Let's see it. | |
Let's see. | |
It says that The Greater Idaho Program is writing the most recent chapter in a long history of dangerous secessionist movements that appeal to bigotry to fuel division. | |
So, if you want to move parts of Oregon and attach them to Idaho because you feel more comfortable there, you are writing the most recent chapter in a long history of dangerous secessionist movements. | |
I guess it starts with the Civil War, right? | |
Those wicked slaveholders seceded, and these movements appealed to bigotry. | |
Great. | |
Greater Idaho, of course, sees things differently. | |
Northwestern Idaho is embarking on social experiments. | |
It sure is. | |
Northwestern, that's where Portland is. | |
All those cuckoo hippie types up there, progressive types, commies. | |
It goes on to say, a cultural revolution that rural counties want no part of. | |
Eastern Oregon has a different culture and values. | |
It certainly does. | |
The group notes that 80% of Idaho's legislature is Republican and that it governs according to the concerns and priorities of rural communities. | |
Greater Idaho's ultimate goal would see 13 entire counties leave Oregon, along with portions of four more. | |
And interestingly enough, If that should happen, Oregon would end up 62% smaller. | |
Only 48% of it would be left, but it would be losing only 9% of its population. | |
So the parts of Oregon that want to clear out and join Idaho Now, the most unfortunate part of all this is that for all of this to go through, it must be approved by both the Oregon and the Idaho legislatures and the U.S. | |
The population that is 91% in the rest of the state dominates them and they don't like it. | |
Now, the most unfortunate part of all this is that for all of this to go through, | |
it must be approved by both the Oregon and the Idaho legislatures and the US Congress. | |
My fear has always been that if sensible people want to leave the crazies, | |
The crazies will not let us go. | |
I am 100% convinced that that is where the great fight is going to be. | |
Idaho? | |
Idaho will probably say, fine, yes, let our brethren across the state line join us. | |
We feel the same way they do. | |
It is the people who despise their farmers and their rural people and their conservatives And they're Republicans and they're gun owners and the people think they're only too sexist. | |
It's the people who despise them that want to keep them within the state so they can be berated and taxed and tortured and flayed every time they say something sensible. | |
My prediction is that it won't work, but it will be a great proof of what amounts to the intense bigotry on the part of liberals who want to keep conservatives around just so they can keep browbeating them and bludgeoning them psychologically. | |
Now, ha, let a war hoop ring out across the land because another phony Indian appears to have been found. | |
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, that is in New York City, its first ever curator of Native American art, Patricia Marroquin Norby. | |
She was hired with great fanfare in 2020 after what the museum said was a long and competitive search. | |
They hunted high and low. | |
For years, Marroquin Norby, age 53, has described herself, including in legal filings, as several things, really. | |
Apache, Eastern Apache, Nde, spelled N-D-E, now perhaps one of our American Indian listeners will correct me after the pronunciation of the tribe known as, spelled N-D-E, as well as Pura Apache Tarascon, That is an indigenous group in the northwestern part of Michoacan, Mexico. | |
In 2022, Marika Norby told NPR, first, I should say, and then she burst forth in what was supposed to be some native language, and then says in English, I am Pura Pacha. | |
I'm Pura Pacha descent. | |
Oh boy, isn't that convincing? | |
You babble a little in some sort of unintelligible dialogue to claim that you're an Indian, So, the Purupacha, they are a Mexican native group, but it's not one of the 574 Indian tribes recognized by the U.S. | |
Department of Interior's Indian Affairs Division. | |
I bet you had no idea there were so many tribes. | |
574 of them, but the Purupacha are not among them. | |
But even the curators claim to be poor Apaches questioned by campaigners against the so-called Pretendians, the phonies. | |
The most notorious examples of such phonies are actress Sachim Littlefeather, who claimed to be Apache and Yaqui when she addressed the Oscars in 1973, read a boycott statement from Marlon Brando. | |
And then there was the Canadian singer-songwriter Buffy St. | |
Marie who claimed to be a Cree. | |
Now the anti-pretendian campaigners say both are white women who lied for decades and Little Feather's fraud emerged only after her death. | |
I believe that means Buffy St. | |
Marie is still among us. | |
With all of the Native American scholars out there, we really wonder why the museum chose Patricia, who's definitely not Native American, said Kathy Griffin, member of the Cherokee Nation, who compiled a genealogy of Marroquin Norby's family and not an Indian punnet. | |
Griffin wanted to say it's genocide against Native Americans. | |
Isn't it interesting how everything becomes genocide these days? | |
She says now white people's descendants are colonizing us again by claiming to be us. | |
Well, of course, we know why they're claiming to be Indians because it comes with many, many benefits. | |
And she says, with Patendians, we've noticed a lot of red flags, said Native American writer and activist Jacqueline Keeler. | |
One is shifting of Native identities. | |
You can see that with Norby and her shifting claims. | |
Well, quite so. | |
Make up your mind. | |
Are you this or are you that? | |
Now, there's also somebody called Liana Constantino, a co-founder of the Tribal Alliance Against Frauds. | |
I guess they think the problem is sufficiently bad, sufficiently serious, to have established a tribal alliance against frauds. | |
And Liana says they constantly shift from one tribe to another and claim to be indigenous from Mexico, which is a lot harder to prove. | |
I guess that's because we don't keep track of the tribes down there. | |
Marican Norby, who grew up in Chicago, once described herself as an urban Indian. | |
And she began to claim her indigenous roots only as an adult. | |
An urban Indian. | |
I wonder if that's something like a street Arab. | |
Of course, I bet some of my listeners have never heard of a street Arab. | |
That is an expression that I'm sure is deeply and horribly taboo today. | |
In 2010, Marroquin Norby was among a group in Osceola, Wisconsin, who sued the school district to try to force the removal of its chieftain's mascot, which depicted an Indian in a headdress. | |
In 2013, she graduated from the University of Minnesota with a PhD in American Studies for a thesis which, ironically, was about how European Americans have historically manipulated American Indian images to create a non-American Indian perspective. | |
Well, well, well, I guess what she's doing is precisely the opposite. | |
She's manipulating American identities to produce a non-American identity to pretend to be an Indian. | |
It do take all sorts, don't it? | |
Now, here's a series that could be called Black Women in Charge. | |
And this will begin with a Portsmouth, Virginia police officer. | |
She was charged with driving under the influence in Hampton, Virginia. | |
She reached 100 miles per hour on the interstate and later kicked an officer. | |
Her name is Carmen Johnson, an African-Americaness and, again, a Virginia police officer. | |
She made these remarks about the arresting officer's race and talked about how she disliked white people. | |
To begin with, she was spotted speeding along I-664 and nearly hit a police vehicle that was conducting a traffic stop. | |
Police said that in a chase she reached speeds of around 100 miles per hour. | |
Then a Hampton police officer pulled her over and noticed that she had glassy eyes. | |
There was a strong odor of alcohol in the car and an open container of liquor in the vehicle. | |
She of course told the officer she'd had only one drink. | |
The officers did not believe her. | |
And I think rightly so. | |
And when she was arrested, as I say, she kicked the white officer and told him she doesn't like white people. | |
Well, apparently the Portsmouth Police Department has put Johnson in a non-law enforcement administrative position in the meantime. | |
Now, all you really need to do is see a photograph of this person to realize that this African-American is, I mean, just looking at her. | |
I mean, I hate to be lookist, but sometimes you really do have to judge a book by its cover. | |
And if you were to see this person, you would think to yourself, police officer is the last thing she should be. | |
The hunger, the desperate drive to have diversity, especially both female and BIPOC. | |
Boy, oh boy, it's so great you end up with people like this Carmen Johnson. | |
Well, we'll see how much longer she stays a police officer. | |
Now, moving on to this question of black ladies in charge. | |
This is about the alleged rape. | |
We still have to call it an alleged rape because it hasn't gone to trial. | |
of the 19-year-old LSU sophomore Madison Brooks. | |
This became a front page story last year. | |
She was apparently raped by four blacks in their car after a night of very serious drinking. | |
And after what took place in the car, the four suspects left Brooks, who was stumbling drunk, on the side of a busy four-lane highway in the middle of the night. | |
She was hit by a car and died. | |
Really, quite a horrible thing. | |
She seems to be, from her photographs, a very pretty, vivacious, blonde, white girl. | |
What a terrible way to end your life. | |
The suspect's lawyers, some of whom are civil rights attorneys. | |
Well, now, why would they be civil rights attorneys? | |
That's just the way things work in America, doesn't it? | |
Criminal cases become civil rights cases if blacks are involved. | |
They claim there are racist undertones in the prosecution's pursuit of high-level charges against these men. | |
Well, yes, murder. | |
All the subjects have pleaded not guilty and maintain their innocence. | |
Their lawyers have argued that the sex was consensual. | |
Yes, they were just having a jolly time in the backseat. | |
And went as far as saying this would not even be a criminal case if Brooks had not died. | |
Yeah, it would just be a case of, you know, young folks having a good time. | |
Well, as it turns out, Brooks's blood alcohol level was 0.319 percent. | |
The legal limit for drivers in Louisiana is 0.08 percent. | |
So, this poor girl had blood alcohol 40 times the legal limit. | |
So, Why is this case back in the news now before it's gone to trial? | |
It has to do with the fact that the person handling this, the judge, Gayle Holm Ray, is handling the case. | |
She, another African-Americanist, is a lifetime member of the NAACP. | |
She took her oath of office on January 12th, 2023, and three months later, she released DeAndre Cox. | |
Yes, an African-American fellow citizen who was accused of raping his preteen neighbor and she released him without alerting the victim or notifying the DA. | |
She just turned him loose. | |
Okay, well that's unusual. | |
And this month she dismissed Donald Ray Link's 1972 conviction for aggravated rape, which hadn't even been requested by Link's lawyer. | |
Link, who was serving a lifetime sentence, this must have been a pretty aggravated rape, appeared before Judge Ray last month to request eligibility for parole. | |
Instead, she just vacated the 50-year-old conviction. | |
Just like that. | |
Boom. | |
Okay. | |
You can go. | |
This unprecedented, unprompted decision completely bypassed the parole process. | |
Interestingly enough, She was also her son's lawyer when he pleaded guilty to several rapes between 1995 and 1996. | |
So she seems to have a particular sympathy for rapists, her son being one. | |
And there is probably a fellow feeling for these blacks who ravished this white girl. | |
Aside from any kind of actual conviction for rape or negligent homicide, whatever it is they're up for, obviously somebody who is 40 times over the legal limit cannot give consent for sex. | |
And even if she had consented to one of the four, would she have consented to the other three? | |
And if you'd had a consensual frolic with someone, Would you actually kick her out of the car in the middle of the night on a busy highway? | |
And all these things point towards, if not actual, negligent homicide, certainly just reprehensible behavior. | |
And as we continue in this series of black women in office or black women in charge, we move on to a Democrat Boston City Councilor. | |
She wants to dismantle America's white backdrop, and she has been seen cursing at her city council colleagues. | |
Her name is Tanya Fernandez Anderson. | |
She's been controversial on the city hall since she was elected in 2021 and pledged to create a revolution for equity. | |
A revolution for equity? | |
As it turns out, Tania Fernandez-Anderson is from West Africa. | |
You sure wouldn't guess it from the name, would you? | |
But looking at her, she looks like she could certainly be Tania Fernandez-Anderson. | |
No tribal scarification marks on her. | |
But now, even her liberal colleagues have become worried that she has created an unhealthy environment, as they call it, with one anonymous source. | |
Telling Fox News that she often swears, yells, and screams at public city hall meetings and calls her colleagues racist. | |
Well, is this a surprise, anyone? | |
Is this truly a surprise? | |
In a video from 2022, she is seen slamming the table as she yells, What the fuck do I have to do in this fucking council to get respect as a black woman? | |
Well, if I'd been there, I'd say, To begin with, clean up your language. | |
And during the same meeting, Anderson called the City Council depraved. | |
Well, it may be. | |
And stupidly racially divided. | |
Well, it may be that too. | |
She says, your votes are sometimes racist. | |
Well, I guess they're not always racist. | |
And I am here to represent every black woman and man in the community. | |
The anonymous colleague, that's to say somebody on the City Council, has decided to speak to the President about it. | |
She's just so abominable. | |
This colleague says Anderson has been hostile, verbally abusive, and anti-Semitic. | |
The source said Anderson has been so focused on passing resolutions condemning Israel since the October 7 attack that it is interfering with her ability to do the job. | |
Well, it seems to me anything that interferes with her ability to do the job is a good thing. | |
The source goes on to say people are intimidated by her, and intimidation works. | |
At one point, Anderson reportedly texted a colleague, whatever the fuck is the problem, work it out, and leave out your evil resentments. | |
Anderson says she chooses to talk in a specific way. | |
I guess that's what explains the effing this and effing that. | |
Because, as she puts it, we should dismantle the white backdrop in America. | |
Okay, okay, so we're going to lard the language with one obscenity after another so as to dismantle the white backdrop. | |
She says we should restructure America to make it welcoming. | |
Oh boy, well I don't think talking that way is going to be welcoming to most people, maybe people from West Africa like she is. | |
But she also sparked a backlash when she refused to swear her oath of office at her swearing-in. | |
She was ordered to retake the oath after footage showed that she'd refused either to say the words or to raise her right hand. | |
She's seen in the video standing silently with her hands clasped in front of her, just arms folded between two fellow counselors who can be seen raising their right hands and repeating the oath. | |
Anderson has claimed she was internalizing the oath and didn't feel the need to say it out loud. | |
Oh boy. | |
What a piece of work this is. | |
Well, Fernandez-Anderson has been the worst offender, furthermore, for missing meetings since her controversial swearing-in. | |
But boy, when she's there, she makes a scene, doesn't she? | |
I suspect even her Democrat colleagues are very happy when she fails to show up. | |
Now, here is something that just goes to show you the strange kinds of conflicts we get in a multiracial society. | |
And it has to do with taxi drivers and it has to do with Orthodox Jews. | |
For decades, Heidi Palmer had a thriving taxi industry on which the Haredi community, that's one of the Orthodox Jewish groups, the Haredi strongly relied on this taxi service in an area that isn't very walkable. | |
For a community in which many Hasidic women are forbidden to drive and where large families have lots of children constantly on the go, taxis are a way of life. | |
In the past, that need in Rockland County was largely provided for by a group of Hispanic-owned taxi companies that employed mostly Hispanic and Haitian drivers. | |
In a campaign that reached a crescendo in late 2023, ads and other media sought to convince the Haredi community, without any evidence or detail, that non-Jewish taxi drivers had been sexually harassing female passengers for years. | |
And then when it came to getting rides, only Jews could be trusted. | |
An ad placed by the Haredi activist group, Madreches, said, how many Yiddish Neshumases, in other words, Jewish souls, need to be hurt before we wake up? | |
An ad for the Jewish-owned Matti's Car Service warned in Jewish against degenerate Gentile drivers. | |
I already got burnt from using the cheap Gentile guys. | |
said an ad for Berry's, another Haredi-owned taxi service, as if quoting a hypothetical customer. | |
I use only Jewish drivers. | |
Another Berry's ad said a responsible father and mother never send their children alone with a Gentile taxi driver. | |
Ooh, those Gentiles. | |
Haredi business owners moved into the vacuum created by the fears resulting from the rumors. | |
I really did not dream I would be successful on such a scale in such a short time, said Mendel Niemann, the Hasidic owner of the taxi company Arrive. | |
Niemann started Arrive shortly after the activists' ads began appearing, and the launch came with massive publicity across the Haredi areas of Rockland County, with ads in print media, on buses and yard signs. | |
The Haredi news outlet, Rockland Daily, covered Arrive's ribbon-cutting. | |
If only there were enough paper to describe all the incidents that have occurred, no Mansi resident would step into a single one of the non-Jewish car services. | |
Nieman told the Haredi News Outlet, Montsee View. | |
Yes, if there were enough, Pei would describe all those incidents. | |
However, and this is really a surprising point, you'd think that Arrive, which is owned by this Nieman fellow that is telling people that you just can't trust the goyim, unlike some other local Jewish-owned car services, his company employs mostly non-Jewish drivers. | |
Uh-oh, uh-oh. | |
Well, you drive out the Gentiles, but you still hire them for drivers. | |
Ain't that something? | |
Well, Heidi Palma, that's the lady we started with who used to run a taxi service, she said that if Nieman believes that non-Jewish drivers are abusive, he shouldn't have poached them from her company. | |
They hired the same people who were my employees, Palmer said. | |
I guess she didn't need employees anymore because her service had been denigrated and so everybody migrated elsewhere. | |
Nieman said he felt bad for the non-Jewish taxi service owners, but when asked if he had any evidence of women being assaulted in taxis, he said, I don't want to answer that. | |
Well, this is not a very flattering portrait of the Orthodox Jewish community in Rockland County, New York, but to its credit, this is a story that was published in the Jewish press. | |
So they're keeping an eye on their community. | |
Now, here's a story about the southern border. | |
While Chinese migrants continue to dominate immigrant lists, Thousands are also pouring in from India, Vietnam, Turkey, Uzbekistan, and Mauritania. | |
It is a true United Nations down there. | |
From October 1st through April. | |
At least 48,500 Chinese have crossed the border illegally, mostly surrendering to Border Patrol with the hopes of seeking asylum. | |
That's what they all do. | |
They hop across, they say, hi, here we are, asylum, and then they're in like Flint. | |
Now that has been an 8,600% increase over all of the year fiscal 2021. | |
And what I just mentioned was a six month period. | |
So if that had been a 12-month period at that rate, it would be a 13,300% increase. | |
But in fiscal year 2021, just 342 Chinese nationals crossed illegally. | |
But in fiscal year 2021, just 342 Chinese nationals crossed illegally. | |
And in just six months, it's 48,501. | |
While most of the border sees most of its migrants come from countries such as Mexico and Venezuela, | |
the area near San Diego attracts people from all around the world. | |
I don't know. | |
Since the start of the fiscal year, more than 8,900 from India have arrived. | |
India? | |
We need more Indians. | |
I thought we already had American Indians. | |
Well, now we need Asian Indians. | |
7,800 from Turkey. | |
5,600 from Guinea. | |
Now, this doesn't even say which Guinea it is. | |
There's two Guineas in Africa and there's a Guinea in South America. | |
But 5,600 from Guinea. | |
4,400 from Mauritania. | |
That is the fancy new origin that we've talked about before. | |
A country many Americans have never heard of and have no idea in what continent it's located. | |
I'll give you a hint. | |
It's West Africa. | |
Chinese migrants are being smuggled into the U.S. | |
with the help of Chinese gangs known as Snakeheads, and they are operating in close cooperation with Mexican cartels. | |
These Asian criminal organizations have been working in Mexico for years in drug trade and money laundering, but now they are diversifying into human trafficking. | |
San Diego's rise as the number one border hotspot has been expected It's been bombarded with as many as 6,000 to 8,000 border hoppers a week. | |
And this, of course, is because things are getting tighter at the other parts of the border. | |
Now, apparently, the business of trafficking humans from Mexico into the United States is now a $13 billion business. | |
But it's a kind of a whack-a-mole, because once you tighten up one part of the border, they will, of course, move to wherever the border is loosest. | |
Now, migrants who are arrested in San Diego, they are vetted, so to speak. | |
How much vetting goes on with people who've thrown away their passports, people you've never seen before. | |
We don't have their fingerprints. | |
We know nothing about these people. | |
They are vetted. | |
They are vetted for bad breath. | |
What are they vetted for? | |
In any case, they are vetted by the U.S. | |
Border Patrol and then just turned loose. | |
And San Diego County had a bum shelter, but they closed it a few months back after local leaders decided they didn't want to spend $18 million a year running it just to house these so-called migrants. | |
A spokesman for the county said it was costing us about $1.5 million a month basically to be their travel agent. | |
Now this guy's got a sense of humor, the San Diego spokesman. | |
He says, we're basically their travel agent. | |
Border Patrol was their Uber, bringing them to these drop-off areas, and then we were their travel agent. | |
Without the local shelter, These migrants are either being let loose by the feds at bus stations or at the airport. | |
And migrants have been known to spend as many as five days just camping out at the airport while they wait for a cheap flight out of town. | |
What a, again, what a country, what a country. | |
You can't take a country seriously. | |
You just can't that behaves this way. | |
And imagine going to the airport, and this is the case in many airports now. | |
We've had reports from listeners who have gone to Chicago Airport, for example, and they look behind the curtain, and there are just wide open spaces full of camp beds and people squatting on the ground. | |
All these people are just hanging out, waiting for somebody to take them in or waiting for a place to go. | |
Crazy. | |
Crazy. | |
But welcome to America. | |
Yeah. | |
Now, here is... Oh, dear. | |
This is quite a story. | |
The hero of the story, or the anti-hero, take your pick, is David Austin Walsh. | |
He is a post-doc, scholar at Yale. | |
And he tweeted the following, I'm 35 years old, I'm four plus years post-PhD, and quite frankly, I'm also a white dude. | |
Why do people call themselves, I'm a white dude? | |
He could just say, I'm white, or I'm a white man. | |
No, he's a white dude. | |
That's true. | |
Combine those factors together and I am for all intents and purposes | |
unemployable as a historian of the 20th century. | |
That's true. You're white. Unemployment. | |
You're a dude! | |
Another tweet. | |
Right. | |
I applied to something like 40 jobs this year. | |
All but four of them were African American and or race ethnicity positions. | |
And despite my work explicitly being about white supremacy, I stand no chance of being | |
hired for these positions. | |
Right. | |
He got 40 rejection letters. | |
He then, and this is just so pathetic, got into a Twitter exchange with a young black | |
woman who has a tenured position in DEI. | |
He writes, if I read your CV correctly, you got a tenure-track job right out of grad school. | |
I'm sorry, you have a tenure-track job, I don't. | |
Let's be very clear, excuse me, let's be very clear about the relative power dynamics here. | |
She replied, so true. | |
Nobody like you ever lands this type of job. | |
Triple exclamation mark. | |
Yeah, nobody like you ever gets these jobs. | |
And she goes on to write, that would explain the dearth of 30-something-year-old white men in this field. | |
Thank you, she says. | |
Isn't she just turning the knife in the wound? | |
He then writes, you are more powerful than I am, and it's because of your job. | |
That's how this industry works. | |
All I'm asking is that at this point, is that you just acknowledge that. | |
And then she writes, hey, keep telling yourself how much more powerful I am than because of my job. | |
That doesn't make it true. | |
And then he realizes that he has done a bad thing. | |
He is asking a black person to admit to a certain black privilege. | |
And so he grovels. | |
He says, I want to apologize for that thread, which was a bad idea. | |
And it came from a place of pain, anger and frustration. | |
Oh, dear, poor David Austin Walsh. | |
He's in a place of pain, anger and frustration. | |
He goes on to write, "...it was fundamentally a breach of solidarity on my part." | |
Exactly. | |
He's supposed to feel solidarity with non-whites, BIPOCs, a black woman, the most persecuted creature in all of America. | |
Of course he's supposed to feel solidarity with her, not think that he, as a white man, is getting the short end of the stick, even though he obviously is. | |
He goes on to say, we all know that history in particular and the humanities in general, | |
we all know that the university itself is profoundly unequal and unfair. Yes. | |
This is what he has been taught for years. | |
He swallowed this hook, line, and shinker. | |
It's all unfair to black women. | |
So how dare he suggest that it's unfair to him? | |
Then he deleted his tweets. | |
He was feeling bad. | |
It came from a place of pain, anger, and frustration. | |
Not a happy place to be. | |
Well, it appears that he is Jewish. | |
And I guess he always thought that anti-white racism would never touch him. | |
Well, he is taking a well-deserved walloping on Twitter for all of this whining. | |
Doesn't he realize that how can people be so stupid? | |
Jews have high IQs. | |
Apparently not this one. | |
Now, this is a different kind of story. | |
This is about pension funds. | |
The Arizona State Retirement System. | |
ASRS uses Arizona pension funds to back environment, social and governance ESG | |
shareholder resolutions on issues including race, gender, climate and politics. | |
Arizona State Senator Jake Hoffman says this, that Arizona retirees pension funds are being used to | |
promote economically disastrous ESG policies should alarm every single taxpayer. | |
Taxpayers entrust ASRS, the retirement system, to provide and vigorously advocate for their retirements and other benefits, not to prioritize woke policies like racial equity audits and defunding the American left's perceived political adversaries. | |
Well, you're exactly right. | |
It's supposed to make money. | |
It's supposed to make sure that the state can pay retirements. | |
Apparently, there were 183 instances of the Arizona state retirement system voting in support of what watchdog groups refer to as woke shareholder proposals. | |
They include racial equity audits, gender pay gap reports, efforts to defund conservative candidates and pro-business trade associations, Radical climate policy and pro-abortion initiatives. | |
The system manages investments of nearly 12 billion dollars in US stock. | |
12 billion dollars. | |
And they're throwing these 12 billion dollars around in an overtly leftist political way. | |
These documents reveal a dark collusion between state bureaucrats and woke corporations to use state pension funds to further a leftist ideological agenda, says the president of American Accountability Foundation. | |
Not the people of Arizona. | |
Not their representatives in legislature ever voted on these issues. | |
But this just goes to show you how deep the rot goes. | |
You have people running the pensions, the pension fund. | |
They have swatted all this stuff. | |
Who knows? | |
Maybe they're all BIPOCs themselves. | |
Maybe they're all transsexuals. | |
Maybe they're all one-legged African lesbians. | |
Who knows? | |
But I suspect there are a lot of white people there. | |
They've swatted all this baloney. | |
And they're trying to use this money to advance all of their pet political causes despite the fact that it's obviously not their job. | |
Obviously, obviously. | |
Now, some of you may or may not know that we have new racial categories according to the Census Bureau. | |
The Feds recently reclassified groups in order better to capture the diversity of the United States, but some groups feel left out. | |
Hmong. | |
That's H-M-O-N-G. | |
I understand it's pronounced Hmong, although it always seems to me it ought to be pronounced Hmong, but that's a silent M, a silent H, apparently. | |
Hmong, Armenians, Black Arabs, and Brazilians say they're not represented accurately by the new categories. | |
They say these changes have created tension between how the federal government classifies them and how they see themselves. | |
They say money, political power, and even health could be at stake. | |
Now, I don't quite understand how health could be at stake, but that's what some of them say. | |
Being lumped into the wrong column can mean a gain or loss of government funds that are distributed based on data. | |
But for some, it's about their identity and about feeling seen. | |
This feeling seen stuff, boy, I get sick of that. | |
Oh, I haven't been seen. | |
Gee, sometimes, you know, I just want to be quiet in a corner. | |
You know, I guess they want to be seen all the time. | |
They're not being seen. | |
Today, among, in the United States, there are 300,000 of them. | |
Many think they should be classified as Southeast Asian, but because China is considered their ancestral homeland, the Census Bureau puts them in East Asia, and they have a practical concern. | |
The East Asian grouping could hide socio-economic disparities between Hmong and other Asians. | |
The per capita income of Hmong is about $26,000, while it's more than $53,000 for Asians overall. | |
So Asians as a group earn twice as much per capita as Hmong. | |
And yes, Hmong are a pretty low-rent group. | |
They are not very good at much of anything. | |
Maybe they need a special category. | |
Instead of East Asian, maybe they can have their own special category called Loser East Asian. | |
And there's also a new classification, Middle Eastern or North African, or MENA, sometimes called MENA. | |
Well, I'm curious to know what Jews call themselves MENA. | |
We'll see about that. | |
But missing from the list of backgrounds under the new MENA category are Black Arabs from such countries as Somalia and Sudan. | |
Most Somali and Sudanese, even if they are Arab, and I don't see how they can be Arab if they are jet black, but maybe they consider themselves Arab, they identify as black, even when MENA was an option. | |
Well, why wouldn't they? | |
In that case, what's the problem? | |
If you consider yourself black, even if some people think you're black Arab, just call yourself black. | |
For many Armenian Americans, Not having their very own category amounts to what they call an existential threat. | |
An existential threat. | |
Because a large part of their diaspora is now concentrated in the United States. | |
Well, they should be happy just to be here. | |
One spokesman says, we will now be undercounted by potentially hundreds of thousands of people. | |
It spells out a very real destruction of Armenian identity in the next two generations. | |
How is it going to destroy their identity? | |
I just don't understand this. | |
What the census calls them should make absolutely no difference to what they think of themselves and how they maintain their own identities. | |
But this is an existential threat. | |
And now, Brazilians. | |
An analysis by the Pew Research Center showed that at least 416,000 Brazilians, or more than two-thirds of the Brazilians in the United States, I guess that means there are over 600,000 Brazilians living here, identify as Hispanic. | |
Well, of course, they wouldn't want to be considered white. | |
Of course they want to be Hispanic. | |
They want the benefits. | |
That's why whites pretend to be Indians. | |
There's no mystery here. | |
Now, not including Brazilians, or Haitians for that matter, in the definition of Hispanic or Latino means that large numbers of Afro-Latinos aren't counted. | |
Aren't counted? | |
Well, of course they're counted, but they're just not counted as Hispanic. | |
And why would they care? | |
Well, Michelle Bueno Vasquez, a PhD candidate in political science, At Northwestern University writes this, the OMB as it stands fails Latinos, especially Afro-Latinos who continually suffer dual discrimination and marginalization on top of statistical invisibility. | |
What in heaven's name? | |
Black Latinos continually suffer dual discrimination because they're black, because they're Hispanic, on top of statistical indivisibility. | |
What's the Census Department supposed to do? | |
In fact, the Census Department gives them the option. | |
They can switch it. | |
They can be black when it suits them. | |
They can be Hispanic when it suits them. | |
And in fact, if you hire one, you get a twofer. | |
I just don't understand what they're complaining about. | |
But complaining about things is the BIPOC stock in trade. | |
Well, ladies and gentlemen, we've come to the end of our time. | |
As always, it is a great pleasure. | |
It is a great privilege and a great honor to spend this time with you. | |
And I look forward to speaking to you again next week, hopefully in the company of my indispensable co-host, Paul Kersey. | |
Thank you. |
