Time Text
I'm your host, Jared Taylor, with American Renaissance.
Today's date is December 27, 2024. I hope that all of our listeners had a wonderful Christmas season.
Wonderful Christmas with the people they love and that we can all look forward to a very agreeable next year.
I am once again without my indispensable co-host.
He's on sabbatical, but we will hope to have him back with us shortly.
And as usual, I'd like to begin with comments.
Comments from listeners.
Well, the first comment is really more of a question than a comment.
Our listener writes in to say, do you think the re-election of President Trump is in any way evidence of the worse is better theory?
Well, I don't entirely understand this question.
Is our listener really saying that the fact that Donald Trump was elected is worse than Kamala Harris and that that's therefore better?
No, I think not.
I think the listener just wants to know my opinion on the worse is better for white racial consciousness view and how did Donald Trump fit into that.
Well, I think Donald Trump is by no means worse than Kamala Harris.
Much, much, much, much better.
But as I've said many times, he is not our savior.
He is not really a racially awake white guy.
He does not think in terms of the demographic future of the United States.
He does not think in terms of a world brotherhood of Europeans.
And I think he never will.
And he has made many, many statements that underline this fact.
However, That half-Hindu, cackling nitwit, who was his opponent, would have been much, much worse.
Now, the worse is better theory would have us believe that all the horrible things that Kamala Harris would have done would have stimulated enough white people to achieve a racial consciousness so that that would make up for all the horrible things.
I don't agree for one moment.
If she had let in, say, another 15 million illegals and legal immigrants, the people that Donald Trump, I think we can count on, will not let in, I think you'd have to have millions and millions of white people wake up to make up for something as horrible as that.
So, in my view, the trade-off is not worth it.
Kamala Harris would have been a disaster, a very discouraging disaster.
The fact that Trump is in...
We'll forestall these disasters, and as I've said many times, Trump will not reverse the rot, but he will slow the rot.
And at the same time, I think that it is an encouragement for racially conscious white people all around the world, the fact that so many millions of Americans were prepared to defy elite opinion on the question of So-called threats to democracy,
a so-called racist or fascist or Nazi in the White House, if they are prepared to defy elite opinion on that subject, I think they are certainly drifting in the direction of defying elite opinion on the whole question of race, which is a suicide pact.
All of these ideas are really a suicide pact.
We need absolutely to get out of this kind of thinking.
So that's the first comment.
Comment number two.
In your most recent podcast, you mentioned another Edward Blum case that has gone to court.
Now, what case was that?
Well, it was a case in which Judge Fitzwater in Dallas said that Southwest Airlines' elimination Of a 20-year-old program that flew only Hispanics for free to go to college, the fact that Southwest had stopped the program and offered to pay Edward Blum's group one cent in damages, that this does not make the case moot.
Doesn't make it moot.
In other words, the fact that they've stopped and they've offered to pay damages, Edward Blum refuses to accept those damages, and he says, no, no, no, no.
It's the real people hurt by this who deserve damages, and the judge has said, this can proceed to trial.
I think this is a wonderful and important thing.
Now, this program in 2004, started in 2004, so it's been going on for 20 years, called Lanzate, which means fly, I think, or launch yourself.
It had taken only Hispanics.
It was offered exclusively and only to Hispanics.
If you're black, if you're white, if you're Asian, too bad.
You've got to walk.
You ain't flying with Southwest.
And it had done this, as I say, for 20 years, so long as you lived at least 200 miles away from school.
The listener adds this, And our
listener goes on to say, Edward Blum is, of course, the same guy who got the Supreme Court ruling on affirmative action.
Amran should do an in-depth profile on him.
I really ought to think about that.
This guy has really done a lot of work.
I know very little about him.
I don't think he's a limelight hog, but we should look into him.
Yet another comment.
I didn't care for your sneering tone in your last podcast when you talked about Crystal Mangum.
She is the black stripper who accused the Duke Lacrosse team of raping her 18 years ago.
Yes, she made it all up, and the boys were dragged through the mud.
However, you should praise her for becoming a Christian in prison, finding purpose in life, and finally admitting what she did.
Well, with some hesitation, I will take this listener's point.
I don't precisely remember my tone when I was talking about Crystal Mangum, but it's possible that there was a little hint of a ghost of a sneer in the way I talked about her.
But what this makes me think of is Tawana Brawley.
I wonder if Tawana Brawley will ever come clean the way Crystal Mangum did.
Yet another African-Americaness.
She gained notoriety in November of 1987. This goes back a long way for some of our listeners.
But at age 15, she falsely accused four white men of kidnapping her and raping her over a four-day period, quite a feat.
She was found with racial slurs written on her body and covered in dog feces.
These charges received national attention, in part because of the rather appalling condition in which she had been left, her young age, just 15. And the professional status of the person she accused of doing this.
She apparently, over the course of the four days, she figured out that these guys were police officers and one was a full-fledged prosecuting attorney.
And, of course, Tawana Brawley's advisors, those frauds, Al Sharpton, begin with Alton Maddox to see Vernon Mason.
They swung into action and helped bring the case to national prominence.
Boy, did they.
Well, it took a grand jury almost a full year to conclude that Tawana Brawley had not been a victim and that she cooked up the appearances of an attack herself.
Now, why would she have done this and claimed for the last four days?
Well, she was probably trying to avoid violent punishment from her stepfather because she'd spent four days skipping school.
She was out of school, and her father had been pretty violent with her when she'd been caught shoplifting, and she didn't want to get a beating for having skipped school.
As it turned out, one of the people that she accused by name of having participated in this four-day-long gang rape, he was Stephen Pagonis.
He was a New York State prosecutor and she had accused him of being one of the rapists.
He successfully sued Brawley and the three advisors, Sharpton, Maddox, and Mason.
There was a $65,000 judgment levied against Al Sharpton who...
And he never paid.
He never paid.
I mean, he's many times a millionaire now, but he never coughed up.
In 2001, that is to say many years later, some of his supporters, including lawyer Johnny Cochran, remember celebrity lawyer Johnny Cochran, and rich businessman Earl Graves, another brother, they paid up for him.
Well, you know, I sometimes think about Tawana.
She would be 53 years old now.
And what are the chances that she will fess up?
I think they're probably pretty slim.
She's been out of the limelight for a long time.
I wonder how many people that she meets even recognize that name.
But even more important, if she were to fess up, it would put a certain amount of pressure on Reverend Al to fess up.
And that would be a very, very useful thing, but I don't think it's going to happen.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, I love to hear from listeners.
And the way to send a message to me, whether it's a complaint, whether it's a compliment, or anything in between, please go to the American Renaissance site, amrin.com, and that's the place where you can send me a message at the Contact Us tab, and I will get the message.
I would be very, very happy to hear from you.
Let's see.
So, our next story.
This is a whole series about horrors in New York City, of which there are many.
This made pretty big headlines, so you've probably heard about it, but a Guatemalan migrant, as they call him, has been arrested for lighting a sleeping subway rider, a passenger, on fire in Brooklyn, and then watching his innocent victim burn to death.
The police commissioner calls it one of the most depraved crimes a person could possibly commit.
And the police commissioner may be right.
And this horrible killing, which happened at 7 a.m.
on an idling F-train, what happened is, as the train pulled into the station, the suspect calmly walked up to the sleeping victim, who was in a seated position at the end of a subway car and used what the police think was lighter fluid.
To set her on fire and she was fully engulfed in flames in a matter of seconds.
This human arsonist, the 33-year-old, came to the US in 2018 from Guatemala.
At the border, he was detained by agents in Arizona.
And he doesn't have that much of a crime record.
He received a transit summons in May 2023, but his criminal record in New York, where he's apparently lived about a year, is relatively clean.
But he was, of course, living in a shelter.
So he was living at taxpayer expense.
Yes, indeed, walking around, setting people on fire.
There is quite a horrifying video showing him calmly looking on.
He's just staring.
He's just sitting on a bench and then he stands up.
This poor woman is burning to death.
The woman is as yet unidentified, race unspecified.
And this woman's terrible death came just as New York Governor Kathy Hochul.
I don't know how it's pronounced, sent 250 more National Guard troops into the Big Apple subway system for the holiday rush.
That means that there are 1,000 National Guardsmen assigned to protect the subway, and it costs $100 million to keep them there.
Now, she insisted that her deployment of National Guard troops led to a dramatic drop in transit crime.
However, subway murders, which are the crime that people fear most, are up by at least 60% over the same period so far this year.
That is to say, eight people were killed on subway cars or in stations as of September 8th, whereas the previous year it was five, despite a thousand National Guard troops trying to keep the subway safe.
And this was just one of a number of several assaults during a very bloody 24-hour period on the city's underground.
And this has prompted the editorial board of the New York Post, which is generally politically sensible, to call for an end to, believe it or not, they got a sanctuary system there.
The editorial boy writes that Zapata Khalil, a Guatemalan illegal, sat a sleeping woman ablaze on an F-train and then watched with satisfaction as she burned alive.
Well, I don't know how he knows he was satisfied.
Perhaps he had a faint Mona Lisa smile twitching across his lips.
Now, the New York Post calls this a predictably sick outcome of woefully misguided policies that have made New York City a haven for border jumpers.
This includes gangbangers, human traffickers, drug dealers, street thugs, and Hannibal Lecter-level psychos.
I guess that includes our Guatemalan.
Zapata Khalil crossed the border in Arizona in 2018 and was deported, thanks to Donald Trump.
He then re-entered the country, headed for New York, where he got shelter, food, and other taxpayer funded in a city that forbids cops to work with ICE to deport even the worst criminals.
The New York Post goes on to say, Trump and Congress need to enact legislation cutting off Well, I say good for the New York Post.
Very, very sensible observation.
Now, something else that happened in New York.
Jason Sargent, 28. One of our African-American citizens, he was assigned on charges of assault for what prosecutors described as two incredibly serious knife attacks on people in the city's biggest train station on Christmas Eve, a nice Christmas Eve present.
This took place at Grand Central Station.
I've been there many times.
It is thronging with people, certainly at rush hour.
Now, Mr. Sergeant, African-American, he was screaming, fuck all of these people.
Before he slashed a 42-year-old man, race unspecified.
The victim was bleeding profusely on the scene.
And the suspect's tirade.
I guess there were yet more people he wanted to insult.
This continued as he ran up some stairs and he got into an argument with a 26-year-old woman, Imani Chiara Pizarro.
Probably not black.
He punched her in the back of the head and then stabbed her in the throat.
She is 26 years old, and she told the New York Post that she was on the phone with her friend and neighbor when she was unprovokedly attacked.
I wish I could travel to my livelihood and not be assaulted.
She said, well, what an idea.
Well, I guess she's living in the wrong country, living in the wrong city anyway.
He has three prior assaults for criminal issue, fair beating, and assaulting a police officer.
But just this last Wednesday, he had a brief courtroom appearance, and the Brooklyn native, as the Post calls him, noticed that his mom was in the courtroom.
He is said to have said, Wait, Ma!
I didn't know you were here!
I didn't know you were here!
He called out to her frantically while he was ushered out of the courtroom by court officers.
So, you see, he loves his Mama.
He's so touched that Mama was there, standing by her boy.
What a good boy!
What a good boy!
He loves his Mama!
Well, a Manhattan judge has ordered him held on $150,000 bail, and I think that's just great.
All of this no-bail stuff is insane, so this guy's at least off the street and won't slash anybody at least for a while.
Now, sticking with the Big Apple here, and boy, it's got some worms in it and a number of quite badly rotted parts, and the fact is we like to keep this podcast family-friendly, so those with tender young ears should probably skip ahead a few minutes.
I'd estimate at least three.
Because, as it turns out, the NYPD's highest-ranking uniformed officer has abruptly resigned.
Why is that?
It's because Lieutenant Quathisha Epps claims in an intensive interview that he routinely asked her for sex right there in the NYPD headquarters.
Close your ears, young listeners.
He wanted to have anal sex, vaginal sex, oral sex, says Quathisha.
He was always asking me to kiss his penis.
Jeffrey Madden, in other words, he's the top cop and a close friend of Mayor Adams.
Oh, the brothers stick together, don't they?
He will be replaced on an interim basis by Chief of Patrol John Schell.
Now, Quithisha recently made headlines as the New York Police Department's top moneymaker.
She pulled in a whopping $400,000, including more than $200,000 in overtime alone.
And all she had was an administrative job in the top cop's office.
Well, Kwethesha, age 51, worked for Madri, her boss, as he moved up in the NYPD from chief of housing to chief of patrol.
But she said his sexual demands didn't start until June of 2023, when he ended up as Chief of Department, the city's top uniformed cop.
Now, Mr. Madry, he was married, but he first allegedly demanded sex from her in his 13th floor office.
He was sitting at his desk with his uniform pants down, rubbing his chest when he first propositioned her.
She is unmarried and a mother of three.
I said, but chief, you're the chief of department.
He rubbed his chest.
His pants were open.
He said, like, well, I'm still a...
And then he said a word of two syllables that rhymes with trigger and begins with N. He says, I'm a...
And you look good.
Well, probably those two comments were straight from the heart.
Then he asked her to go to the back room in his office where he had a couch and a bathroom.
He bent me over the arm of the couch, and when I tried to back away, he told me...
Just let me put it in a little bit.
Right, and the check is in the mail.
Well, then there's a whole routine about KY Jelly.
We will skip that.
And she says, you're hurting me.
We'll skip that, too.
Well, the fact is, the boss had started being generous with overtime a couple of years earlier.
That is when he was Chief of Patrol, and she told him of her financial problems.
I told him I was about to lose my home, she said, because she was facing a foreclosure.
Mmm, not regular with her payments.
Poor single mom of three.
He told me I could do whatever overtime I needed.
He told me I was like his sister.
Yeah, sister.
But he would have her do things outside of her job at headquarters, including helping another woman cop who was under his direction.
Now, why would the chief want her to help another woman cop?
Well...
The interview doesn't go into that.
He would have me go apartment hunting with her, said Epps, noting that it was part of her overtime.
Well, gosh, go apartment hunting for another one of his little lady favorites.
That was part of his overtime.
She claimed that Madri would frequently text her with a single phrase, D-A-P. Now, once again, cover your tender ears, young listeners.
Apparently, DAP stands for Dat Ain't Pussy.
It meant he wanted anal sex.
He would then come into her office and ask me to kiss it.
Badgerie, who has a law degree and pulled down $300,000 in salary, would allegedly tell Epps that he had a wish and a command, and then that she would have to do whatever he asked.
Well, she tried to get all this to come to an end, but that appears to be when Quithisha was outed as having had such a great deal of overtime.
She suggests that this would have been in retaliation when she wanted to get out of the deal.
Well, Quithisha was suspended for 30 days and is being investigated over all this excessive overtime.
And, as it turns out, her boss has been accused of sexual misconduct in the past.
Former police officer Tabitha Foster filed an unsuccessful civil suit against her in 2016, accusing him of requiring her to exchange sex for various job perks, but a judge threw that out.
Well, I don't know.
I mean, I feel sorry for Quithisha, but it sounds like Madri was certainly keeping up his end of the bargain.
$400,000, about half of that in overtime.
He was doing his part, and I guess when she decided not to do her part, he kind of outed her, but I guess he didn't realize that she was going to turn to state's evidence.
So there you go.
More fun time adventures in New York City.
Now, let us move on to various scam schemes against Whitey.
There's something called the Shuttered Venue Operations Grant.
Now, that was supposed to help arts groups weather the COVID shutdowns during the pandemic.
And it was supposed to be used for operating expenses and employee salaries.
In other words, arts groups were going to go dark, and all these people who were counting on their salaries, they might be on the breadline, and so you're supposed to pay them.
Well, the SVO grant system, that's Shuttered Venue Operations Grant, that system was signed into law by Donald Trump and offered up to $10 million for arts organizations, studios, theaters, etc., to spend on ordinary and necessary expenses.
Filers had to show that the pandemic cost them at least 25% of revenue.
Well, what happened with this?
Rapper Lil Wayne reportedly got $8.9 million, but he spent the relief funds on personal expenses, including $1.3 million on private jets, over $460,000 on clothing, And $2.14 million to pay off a debt to his former manager.
He just splashed out the money for himself.
$460,000 on clothing.
Wow.
When a Business Insider reporter tried to contact Lil Wayne about what he was up to, he responded in a crudely sexual manner.
I won't go into that because our young listeners are back listening, I hope.
Now, there's another black rapper, Chris Brown.
He reportedly got $10 million, but $5.1 million went into his own pocket, of which he spent $800,000 on a birthday party.
Boy, these rappers really live high and wide, don't they?
$800,000 on a single birthday party.
Just like Lil Wayne spending $460,000 on clothing.
Then there is a rapper by the name of Marshmallow.
He got $9.9 million in relief funds, and he pocketed the entire amount.
No record as to what he exactly spent it on.
As it turns out, most of the $7.7 million given to Ray Stremmerd, that is a black rap duo, they pocketed all of that money.
None of it went to the company's expenses.
None of it went to the employees.
None of it went where it was supposed to go.
So, there you go.
Another black scam.
Now, here is a different kind of black scam.
A press release from Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee, reads as follows.
Thanks to the tireless efforts of our campus safety officers and the Memphis Police Department, the investigation into the hate crime that occurred recently on our campus has ended with the identification of the perpetrator.
This individual has admitted responsibility.
So, a hate crime perpetrator has been brought to book.
The school, Rhodes College, went on to say, this matter caused enormous pain to our community, and we are taking the appropriate steps to hold this individual accountable, including all legal avenues that may be available to us.
Well, what had happened?
There were such things as, well, I will use the abbreviations, FN Word, and Trump Rules.
These were messages distributed about the campus.
Well, I guess if you say Trump Rules, that's clearly hate.
But the campus at the time said, We are a community firmly committed to diversity, inclusion, belonging, civility, and respect.
We do not tolerate racial bias or hate speech.
And, of course, the university hosted a...
No, it's a college, Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee.
It hosted a campus culture meeting.
To get to the bottom of all of this horrible stuff, the campus culture must be insufficiently anti-racist for such a thing to occur.
Well...
As it turns out, the college will not be publicly identifying the person or that person's relationship to Rhodes.
Well, that's your first clue, isn't it?
That something's not quite right.
Why hide the perp's identity?
Well...
As it turns out, it was the very same person of color who reported these gruesome incidents who actually left the notes around campus.
So, yes, yet another black scam.
Now, what's interesting to me is that whenever something like this happens, administrators are always admitting to be utterly baffled.
Why would someone do such a thing?
How can this be?
This is mysterious.
This is just incomprehensible.
Well, it's obvious.
It's obvious.
When this happens, minorities, almost always blacks, are petted Pampered, slobbered over, made much of, and all the white people are made to reflect on their hereditary guilt.
And this is the greatest possible thing for black people, and it happens.
But since the demand for racism is vastly, vastly superior to the supply, it has to be cooked up and manufactured.
Now, this was a story that was reported in the College Fix.
The College Fix often has really great articles about the crazy cuckoo things going on on campus, often having to do with race.
And it has reported that there were 21 campus hate crime hoaxes uncovered this year.
and here are some of them in its list of 21.
Apparently, police accused Rhoda Osman, race unspecified but clearly a person of color at the University of Texas, Austin.
She was a graduate student.
The police accused her of theft after she raised $40,000 on the pretense of having been the victim of an assault.
Well, video turned up showing that she took the first swing during an argument.
So she was the assingment and not the victim.
Then again, after interviewing 47 people, reviewing hours of footage, the Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois, said it could not verify the use of a racial slur by a basketball fan that allegedly occurred during the game.
They bothered to interview 47 people, reviewed hours of footage, all that time wasted trying to track down a false claim of a racial slur.
Then in East Ramapo High School in New Jersey, Women's basketball player alleged that there were racial taunts, including monkey sounds, made during a game in early 2024. However, once again, after an expenditure of enormous resources, no one could corroborate and a parent who was present absolutely denied that anything should have happened.
I suspect that the basketball player probably got off scot-free.
And then here's another one.
Isha Hussain She's some sort of Muslim.
She said that the University of Washington did nothing to help her after a Jewish roommate threatened her with a knife during an argument about the war in Israel.
It has now been proven that this never happened.
Then there was a case of a blackface.
Well, this was something, a depiction on a banner at Colorado State University.
Well, how did it get black?
Well, it was due to the ink bleeding.
And then a black teacher and black students at California's Beverly Hills High School claimed pro-Trump students harassed them.
Video proves it never happened.
Boy, those videos, gosh, that evidence, that video, it's like cops wearing cameras.
You know, I remember the liberals were so disappointed when they first started wearing those cameras.
They were expecting to see evidence, just irrefutable evidence, of horrible racial bias.
And it turns out that so many cops are so incredibly patient with the most difficult, obstreperous people.
No, these cameras, body cams, have been a great thing for the police.
And just a couple more here.
There was a white Baltimore principal.
He was accused of racism after a black colleague used AI to somehow implicate him.
That sounds like a fascinating story.
And then the last one.
A white student at the University of Virginia.
Morgan Bettinger.
She got an undisclosed settlement, I hope it was a fat one, from the University of Virginia after a black student Accused her of joking about running over black activists.
I remember that.
It was quite a stink.
This black student said that, oh, any black people would be no better than speed bumps.
Just run over them.
That's what this black student claimed Morgan Bettinger had said.
UVA punished her, expelled her, humiliated her.
She was just driven off the campus.
And in the meantime, the black woman, who was fat, fat, fat, she was hired by Dove Soap as a fat liberation advocate.
This is just so disgusting to me, this person who made this white person's life miserable.
Well, poor white person Morgan Bettinger has gotten a settlement from the University of Virginia.
Let's hope they think twice about taking the word of a black person for something like that in the future.
Now, as the whole business of scams continues, this is an article from a publication called Highly Respected by Scott Greer.
It's his Highly Respected publication, and it's all about black girl magic.
Is black girl magic over?
Has it fizzled out?
And I'll read you a few excerpts from it.
The African-Americanist on the Supreme Court.
She reached a new low last week.
The black justice briefly performed in a queer reworking of Romeo and Juliet.
Well, I wonder what that means.
Are they both trannies?
Or are they both one sex?
Or who knows?
I mean, anything is possible these days.
Maybe it's a threesome or a foursome.
Who knows?
But it's a queer reworking of Romeo and Juliet, and a Supreme Court justice was on stage playing her part.
As Scott Greer continues, her bizarre theater kid foray was extremely cringe, prompting widespread mockery.
If a prominent black political figure had done such a thing in 2014 or even in 2019, we would all be compelled to think it was the most epic thing ever.
Well, Mr. Greer could be right about that.
And KBJ's embarrassment, I guess she's one of these famous people like LBJ and AOC, who is identified by her initials KBJ. Her embarrassment indicates black girl magic may be losing its mojo.
Unlike other minorities, black women stood strong for Kamala Harris, but...
The rest of America chose a white guy who questioned Kamala's blackness.
The near-divine status of black women could be a thing of the past.
Besides, America is tired of these ladies bossing us around.
The 2010s were filled with black girl magic.
Beyonce, Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, and other black female celebrities were, and still are, treated as goddesses.
One company even sold black girl magic wine.
I never saw a bottle and I hope I never will.
They were praised for repudiating the anti-democratic republicans in the ballot box in 2020, but somehow they couldn't deliver in 2024. And the New York Times declared just last month, I'm glad Mr. Greer dug up this article, this is just too delicious, that black women now are choosing rest.
They're choosing rest.
Some have emphasized that after turning out strong for Ms. Harris, they feel unappreciated and defeated and are ready to bow out of the political and culture wars and, for now, focus on personal well-being.
You go, girls!
Focus on personal well-being.
Please, please.
The Times claims that these, quote, public declarations of stepping back are a shift from the leadership role black women have historically played in politics.
NPR followed the Times with its own report on black women's time of rest.
Interview subjects claimed they feel under constant attack as black women.
Oh, the poor dears.
One insisted that the election showed that Americans definitely hate black women.
Boy, they are sensitive, aren't they?
I mean, what is it, about 40%?
More than 40% of white people voted for this half-Hindu black woman, but this just proves Americans definitely hate black women.
If it wasn't for all that hate, hate, hate, hate, hate, she would have won by a landslide.
So they too are saying they have stepped back and will no longer save us from ourselves.
We mere mortals betray the divine force, says Scott Greer, that keeps America afloat and we're going to suffer the consequences.
I embraced all you folks out there in Radio Renaissance land.
I hope you're braced too because consequences are coming and they're coming good and hard.
Black women's protestations that they are leaving politics aren't to be believed.
They're just doing it to guilt white women and other Democrat voters into affirming their faith in black girl magic.
The myth still lives on among the left.
Scott Greer reports that nearly half of Democrat voters say Kamala is their pick for 2028. Can you believe that?
Good grief, this utter loser, this brainless twit, and they want her back?
Wow.
Well, Mr. Greer continues, however, most of the top contenders for the 2028 Democrat primary are white guys who are promising to move the party away from woke.
Well, well, what do you know?
Away from woke.
Well, let's see.
Now, the Wall Street Journal had quite a series on the prospect of deportation.
And they had some interesting angles on it here.
There was one about a small town called Seymour, Indiana, where people are praying for deportation.
The story starts with a resident named William Everhart.
After seeing this small town receive hundreds of migrants in recent years, he heard about a proposal to create an immigrant welcome center in town that he thought would bring yet more.
He joined other critics of the plan at a city council meeting in late March.
The gathering quickly grew raucous as residents packed the room and unleashed a torrent of criticism.
At one point, chanting loudly, shut it down.
I don't support this agenda.
Not in any way, shape, or form, said Everhart, 73-year-old retired environmental affairs director and lifelong Seymour resident.
That's what he said when it was his turn at the lectern.
We don't need this in Seymour.
Good man.
Such residents have complained for years that a flood of unauthorized immigrants—come on, Wall Street Journal, they're illegals—are wrecking the city.
See, we're good to go.
Boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, elections matter.
If Donald Trump were not on his way to the White House, there probably would not be anything like this kind of resistance.
These people have, and to use the left's favorite term, and I'll have to use it, or I choose to use it, they have been emboldened.
Well, they've been encouraged to do so because they think something will actually happen.
It makes a huge difference.
Trump brought hope, said Dana Clark, age 66, who also spoke at the city council meeting.
Day one is going to see the biggest deportation ever.
Seymour has a population of only 22,000.
It's an hour's drive south of Indianapolis.
And the surrounding county, Jackson County, voted 77% for Trump.
So they are being rewarded for this.
The city council meeting concluded with members passing a resolution nixing this immigration center.
Hooray!
And, just as a cherry on top of the sundae, the following day, an immigrant with no driver's license collided head-on in Seymour with a vehicle of a 27-year-old white man who later died.
And in the aftermath, three residents pledged to try to channel their anger into action.
They made a Facebook page that documents crimes committed by illegals and pushes the authorities to get on the stick.
It now has more than 4,500 followers.
Attaboy.
Unauthorized migrants to use the Wall Street Journal's term in Seymour seemed largely unaware of local disputes over their presence.
Yeah, they stand in the shadows.
They don't know what's going on, but they are fearful of Trump's return to office.
That they've heard about.
We are all waiting to see what happens, said Vicente Gaspar, a 27-year-old Guatemalan who crossed the border illegally six years ago and works for an auto supplier.
Now, you know, it's all very well for the people of Seymour to talk about schools being overwhelmed or DUIs or crime, but I am hoping that eventually they'll get to the point where they simply say, these people are not us.
They can't be us.
And we have the right to be us.
Maybe someday they'll get to that point.
But in the meantime, if they're pointing out DUIs or people driving without license killing American citizens, That's a good start.
They don't want them there, and that's great.
Now, likewise, in the Wall Street Journal, there's an article about those dreamers, those lovely, beautiful dreamers.
And it starts with Oscar Silva, who graduated from the University of North Texas, but he couldn't launch a career with his accounting and economics degrees because he lacked legal status.
So instead, the 24-year-old Mexican immigrant, illegal immigrant, Wall Street Journal, enrolled in a master's program hoping to buy time while Congress legalizes him.
Then, lo and behold, Donald Trump won a second term.
I had a mental breakdown, Silva said.
I thought all my work was for nothing, and I immediately started crying.
Well, isn't that great?
You know, you have these people here illegally.
They are so opposed, they are so opposed to the people's choice for the President of the United States, they burst into tears.
Now, I'm sure there were some white people who did the same thing, mostly female, but this just goes to show these people don't belong.
It Proves you don't belong when the American people decide on whom they want as president and you burst into tears.
No, you don't belong here.
Now, he is one of more than 400,000 students in American colleges without legal status.
Transition officials for the new incoming administration, including border czar Tom Holman, have publicly started to narrow the effort Scorpe to focus primarily on gang members, fugitives, and those with criminal histories.
In other words, those are the people we're going to deport first.
Still, Holman recently has reinforced his intention of mass arrests.
If you're in the country illegally, you've got a problem, he said on an interview just last Wednesday.
So students are scrambling to learn whatever rights they have.
They're making plans to go underground if need be.
Just great.
They're going to go underground.
And just in case, just in case, they're contacting relatives in home countries that they barely remember if they end up being sent back home.
This is the thing they all, all, all complain about.
You know, oh, I don't know.
I don't even speak Spanish.
I don't know what it's like there.
Well, don't forget, fellas, when Mama brought you, she probably didn't speak English.
Maybe she didn't know any Americans.
This can be done.
And you are a citizen of that country.
You don't have to live in the shadows.
You don't have to wait for Congress or the Mexican legislature or the Honduran, whatever it is, to legalize your status.
You're there home free.
You can do anything you like.
No, I don't want to go back.
Well, Trump, who once tried to end the DACA program during his first term recently, he says he wants to help this group of immigrants stay.
So stop whining.
Other immigration hardliners say they are also inclined to let the dreamers stay put.
Trump has said the people he is going to deport are the ones with criminal backgrounds and the ones who have committed crime, and I agree with Trump, says Texas State Rep Terry Leo Wilson.
Still, she introduced a bill that would eliminate in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants, a financing mechanism available to them in many other states.
She says it doesn't make sense that an American out-of-state has to pay out-of-state tuition but an illegal doesn't.
Pretty obvious to me, but no, no, these people are better than Americans.
They have to get privileged compared to us.
California, which has the nation's largest pool of undocumented college students at around 80,000, is among the blue states aiming to shield students from authorities.
In early December, California Attorney General Rob Bonta.
I bet his ancestors didn't come on the Mayflower.
Reminded public agencies, including universities, that they can decline to cooperate with federal immigration officials.
And they don't need to keep records of students' legal residency status.
So yeah, keep them here despite the fact that they're lawbreakers.
Since the election, campuses nationwide have been hosting legal workshops for students along with support programs, including a poetry writing session at the University of California, Irvine.
Yep.
Spend your time writing poetry about it.
I think that is a great way for you to prepare for the future.
A possible deportation?
Yes.
Poetry writing sessions.
That is just what these dreamers need.
Keep them dreaming.
Apparently there are 700 illegals at University of California, Irvine, and I hope they stay busy writing poetry.
Says Laura Enriquez, associate professor of Chicano Latino Studies at the school.
Sadness is a common feeling, but also frustration and a sense of unfairness.
It's so unfair you can't stay in a country where you were smuggled in across a border as an illegal immigrant.
That's so unfair.
Now, of all the DACA recipients, here's the one the Wall Street Journal chooses to profile.
Her name is Catherine Narvaez.
Her single mother brought her at age 6 from Guatemala.
Now, Catherine was a high achiever in high school, where she said, and let's assume she's not lying, she was captain of the cross-country track and basketball teams.
A top ROTC cadet, and she graduated with honors.
Well, I wonder what her high school is like.
How good does your grade point average have to be to graduate with honors?
Now, she's apparently in medical school.
She's in her third year of medical school.
A model citizen.
A model dreamer.
A dreamer whose dreams were on the verge of coming true until Donald Trump was elected.
Now, have you ever heard of a DACA recipient who was a thug or a criminal who dropped out of high school or who makes a living pushing fentanyl?
No, those don't exist.
Those don't exist.
They're all just like Catherine, just model, model citizens to be.
We can't imagine making America great again without them.
So, that is the Wall Street Journal.
Now, yet another story in the Wall Street Journal.
Chinese authorities are advising Chinese students in the U.S. to think twice about leaving the country for the Christmas and New Year's holidays, adding to warnings by dozens of American universities to international students to be back on campus before Donald Trump's inauguration.
China's Consulate General in Chicago said on December 14th, students should try to reduce unnecessary cross-border travel.
The visas of Chinese students, particularly in the sciences, were targeted during Donald Trump's first term, and many Chinese students now studying at U.S. schools are feeling on edge about his return to the White House.
Many are now scrambling to change travel plans, and some of them are trying to set up Plan B if tougher visa rules come into effect under the wicked, red-headed man.
A 26-year-old graduate student at Columbia University in New York who asked to be identified only by her surname, Guo, She said she's still going to visit her partner in Europe during the winter break.
Her partner.
Are they in business together or are they in bed together?
Hard to know these days.
But to make sure that she won't have any trouble returning, she booked a return flight on January 19th, just ahead of the inauguration.
As if, you know, in his first day in the White House, he's going to put the red alert out for Guo and make sure she can't get back in the country.
Chinese students have flocked to social media platforms to vent their frustrations.
I wake up in the middle of the night worrying about what to do next, Guo said.
Anxiety is through the roof, and almost everyone I know feels so lost.
They might have to leave the United States.
In 2020 alone, more than 1,000 Chinese had their visas revoked because of concerns that they might turn out to be spies.
According to data provided by the U.S. State Department.
That's pretty interesting.
I sure didn't know that.
In one year, under Trump, 1,000 Chinese had their visas revoked so they could not be studying military-type technology.
It wasn't good for Donald Trump.
When President Biden took office in 2021, he revoked several of Trump's executive actions.
Including a ban on citizens entering the U.S. from predominantly Muslim countries.
But some Chinese students continued being barred from entering the U.S. or were deported.
And of course admission to a U.S. university is no guarantee that you'll get a student visa.
Students said they've been advised by their own school officials to comply if immigration officers ask to check their electronic devices.
And so they should be careful what they say on social media.
Yeah, if you plan to object in some very stroppy way or you plan to do something illegal, just don't put it on your computer, okay?
Don't send messages about that on your phone.
These are the universities that are saying to their students, you know, play cool.
A travel ban is likely to go into effect soon after immigration, Cornell University said in a note posted online.
Apart from countries targeted in the first Trump administration, such as the majority of Muslim ones, China and India might also be added to the travel ban, Cornell said.
So, you know, they're issuing warnings.
And Iris Feng, a Columbia statistics major, now they're all at Ivy League, fancy universities, you see.
Not one of them is at a state college or a junior college.
She recently canceled a planned trip back to China on advice for parents who urged her to stay put rather than risk running into trouble.
Others are considering options such as a program called EB-5 that offers permanent American residency to foreigners who invest in qualified job-creating projects.
To do that, to get one of those EB-5 visas, you have to pony up at least $800,000.
Apparently, demand for these visas has skyrocketed after Trump's re-election.
Now, many foreign nationals with children on student visas realize it's going to be much harder for sons or daughters to stay in the U.S., and so they are considering an investment to eliminate that obstacle.
Well, you know, I've always hated this idea of people buying their way in, but if they're going to get in one way or another, if they want to pony up $800,000 and create American jobs, okay, make them pay.
Now, I was surprised to hear this, but the Wall Street Journal says that India has now surpassed China as the top country of origin for international students.
There are no fewer than 331,602 Indian students in the United States studying.
331,602.
And China came in second with 277,398 students.
Combined, they make up more than half of all the foreigners studying in American universities.
Now, note that figure.
277,398 Chinese in our universities.
Guess how many American students are studying in academic programs in China?
Only 469. Now, the Washington Journal says that figure doesn't include internships and research work.
But I suspect those numbers are pretty small.
So, there you go.
That was the Wall Street Journal, who was very helpfully talking about immigration-related matters.
Now, let's see.
Golly, we have a...
Boy, time just whizzes by.
Well, let's see.
Let's talk about Trump and the Ivy League.
Donald Trump is, of course, an Ivy League graduate.
He was an econ major at the University of Pennsylvania.
I'm sorry, he got an econ degree from the Horton School, a business degree.
Not that the university has ever said he was a proud alumnus.
Or that congratulated him on being one of their students.
Another four of his cabinet nominees are Ivy League grads, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bassett, who went to Yale.
J.D. Vance, Yale Law School, Department of Government Efficiency co-head Vivek Ramaswamy, Yale Law School, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is a double ivy, Princeton and Harvard.
Neither one of those schools has acknowledged his likely ascension to this prestigious position.
Now, Yale should be extra proud with three alumni in a future Trump cabinet.
But alas, the elite universities remain conspicuously silent.
That's in stark contrast to its previous expressions of gushing joy in the political achievements of Democrat alums such as failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and Jake Sullivan, Joe Biden's national security advisor.
Hillary is regularly invited to share her deep and perspicacious insights with the Yale community.
She's been just showered with awards and praised as an example of transformational leadership.
Oh, Hillary.
Oh, Hillary.
In 2016, Yale Law School issued a statement congratulating Hillary, quote,"...on her historic nomination for President of the United States." Well, no such congratulatory message when Yale alumnus J.D. Vance was elected vice president this year.
Nope, nope, nope, nope.
I guess they would rather he hadn't gone to Yale.
The Yale Daily News, that's the school newspaper, did note in its eighth paragraph on a sour story about Trump's victory that Vance, quote, will become the fourth Yale graduate to hold the vice presidential seat.
But it poured cold water on the whole thing.
Despite Vance's ties to Yale, few in the community are likely to celebrate his political ascension.
Probably true.
Now, Bassett's nomination, that is the guy who is going to be, let's see, he's Treasury Secretary?
Yes, Treasury Secretary.
Bassett's nomination for this higher-ranking position, you might think, would merit a flash of pride, but no.
Because when Yale alum Jake Sullivan was appointed to the lesser role of then-VP Biden's National Security Advisor in 2013, a laudatory article in the Yale Daily News was dedicated to this marvelous occurrence, including a long recitation of his career achievements.
In 2020, when Sullivan And John Kerry were named to Biden's National Security Team.
Yale Alumni Association Executive Director boasted of the long and proud history of service among Yale alumni.
For country, community, and fellow Yalies, we're delighted.
No such statement.
From the Yale Alumni Association about Bassett, Treasury Secretary, Vance, who is going to be Vice President, or Ramaswamy, who's going to be cutting fat in the government.
What makes it even worse is Treasury Secretary nominee Bassett has been a big donor to Yale.
He even served as an adjunct professor for five years.
He and his sister donated so much money to Yale that there's something called the Bassett Library.
And he has endowed three scholarships.
But, nope, mom's the word.
He's going to work for Trump.
Oh my goodness.
We so wish that he'd gone to Harvard instead.
Oh boy, oh boy.
Well, that's the way things are, aren't they?
Well, ladies and gentlemen, I've come to the end of my time.
There's always so much more to say.
I was going to want to talk about all the black judges that Joe Biden has nominated.
He has been setting records, absolute records, judges of color, female judges of color, but we don't have time.
Maybe we'll do that next week.
In any case, thank you so much for spending this time with me.
And I look forward so much to doing the same thing with you next week.
