Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to Radio Renaissance.
I'm your host, Jared Taylor, and with me is my co-host, Paul Kersey, fresh and refreshed and ready to go back from sabbatical.
Great to have you back, Mr. Kersey.
Happy New Year to you and to all of our listeners wherever they are around the world.
Yes, indeed.
Yes, indeed.
It's been a pretty happy New Year for me so far.
We're bucking up here.
So, as usual, we pass along.
Comments from listeners.
And the first one is, please tell Mr. Kersey and his fellow race realists miss him.
And we hope he's doing well.
Well, he's doing just fine and he's back where we like him.
Next comment.
I am shocked by the intensity of damage Obama and Biden administrations have done to the country.
Yes, a lot of this stuff is coming out, isn't it?
Some of us were aware of it as it was happening, but it is wonderful to see the administration really looking into these things.
Thankfully, the tide seems to be turning and common sense seems to be making a comeback.
Thank you, Mr. Taylor, for all your hard work.
It's amazing how long you've been doing this and how ahead of the curve you were.
Yeah, Mr. Kersey, I don't know if you remember, one guy some years ago talked about me and he says, yeah.
He's been standing up for white people before it was even cool.
Well, I'm glad it's cool now.
A commenter goes on to say, I follow Officer John on his other show, and I see his followers growing steadily.
Yes, Officer John was a very good guest co-host.
He says, I also learned about all the hard work Mr. Colin Flaherty did.
What a shame he passed far too soon.
Thank you again, and have a blessed day.
Yeah, Mr. Kersey, you knew Colin Flaherty.
He was really, really a great guy.
And he was taken from us far too soon.
And, you know, I didn't mark the occasion as I should have, but it's now been 20 years since Sam Francis died.
My goodness, that was February 2005. I do remember that vividly.
That's right.
Yeah, I should have written up something.
Sam Francis, you of course published that tremendous volume of his just insightful essays that he wrote some under a non-diplume posthumously for the New Century Foundation.
Just real quick, what are some of your recollections on Sam Francis?
Oh gosh, there are too many to say.
That collection was called Essential Writings on Race.
Pat Buchanan called him the Klaus Witz of the Right.
And I used to refer to him as the greatest philosopher of white advocacy.
Really a very, very smart guy.
And if you can find copies of Essential Writings on Race by Sam Francis, snap them up.
Really, really a great guy.
No, if you got me talking about Sam Francis, we wouldn't have much of a program left.
And we've got a lot.
To get to here, next comment is a man who says, I'm writing from India.
I admire Jared Taylor.
Boy, I've just got nothing but fan mail this time, Mr. Kersey.
Gee, he goes on to say, Mr. Taylor has been a real inspiration.
I have a dream to see Western civilization not just survive, but thrive.
And I feel the soul of Western civilization is white people.
I'd like to ask a question.
Would America be the society it is today?
If there had been mass immigration in the 1800s and 1900s from Eastern Europe, is there any difference in IQ and culture within the various white nations?
So let's imagine that North America has been populated by the people who are now in Eastern Europe rather than the people who are in Western Europe.
That's not an easy question to answer.
But I remember we had a very interesting article written by an American who was an expatriate living in Romania.
Now, Romania, according to various international studies, has an average IQ of 91. That is, you know, almost 10 points lower than the Northern European white IQ. And he said there really is a different texture of life there.
And partly, of course, it's due to the large number of gypsies who live there.
But he had this sense that Romanians, okay, yes, they are white, they're European, but they're not quite the same as the rest of us.
And that's the only local sort of cultural observation that I've ever heard about Eastern Europe from a racially aware point of view.
But if you look at the IQ map, there are stark differences.
All the way up to Czechoslovakia and Slovenia and Croatia, you've got 98, 99, pretty much the European average.
You get into Serbia, the average IQ is reported to be 90. 90, just 90. In Romania, 91. If you get as far as Albania, an average IQ of 82. That seems gruesomely low.
Of course, they are Muslims, lots of Muslims in Albania.
A lot of miscegenation, yeah.
Yeah.
And northern Macedonia, an IQ of 91. Croatia, 93. Also, Bulgaria, 93. So, you've got a drop.
And as I said, the observations of this American who's living in Romania, which, as I said before, has a reported IQ of 91, said that really just the kind of level of distrust, the sort of exploitative nature of some people, more than you would expect in Western Europe, he said there was a real different feeling.
And so, in answer to our Indian I would say probably so.
Probably so.
I mean, again, oh, Hungary.
Hungary continues.
As you're heading east, Hungary is about as far as you can get and still have an average IQ of 98. And then, as I say, the border from Hungary into Romania is a sudden drop down to 91. And then Albania, 82. Gee, so it probably would have been a different place.
It probably would have been a different place.
On the other hand, if it had been the Eastern Europeans who were energetic and who founded North America, colonized North America, then you're talking about completely different people.
But if you're talking about the people who are there now, and they had been the ones who built the United States, I suspect it would be a different place.
Now, our Indian, our Indian correspondence also goes on to say, I'd like to end this message by saying I don't believe in out-of-Africa theory.
Please try to watch as many videos by Robert Seper as possible.
That's Robert and then S-E-P-E-H-R. Well, I looked at one of them and he makes some good arguments.
But the fact is, I've been around long enough.
So that I saw the out-of-Africa theory come and really become ascendant.
And now it's kind of on the wane.
People are beginning to say, well, you know, things are a little bit more complicated than that.
It used to be the idea was that biologically modern Homo sapiens were established in Africa and then they migrated out.
And maybe only 100,000, 200,000 years ago, they came into Europe and we descended from them in that period of time.
Some people said, no, that's impossible.
My attitude always was, okay, maybe evolution works pretty quick.
And in that many generations, if we really were just like Bantus and we showed up, now we're us.
Doesn't make any difference how fast it happened.
I want to preserve those differences.
But now there are people who point out that the Den of Silvins, the Cro-Magnon man, Cro-Magnon man is supposed to have been there for, oh, 400,000 years, maybe half a million years.
It's much, much more complicated.
And so I'm prepared to believe that out of Africa is gross simplification.
But either way, it doesn't bother me.
Racial differences are real.
And they can be a million years old.
They can be 100,000 years old.
They are important.
And they are worth preserving.
Last comment, Mr. Kersey.
Fire it well.
Some time back, Mr. Taylor pointed out the parallels between the inevitable failure of communism and the manifest failure of egalitarianism we live under today.
Well, I used to make the point, well, I still do sometimes, that communism was based on a misreading of human nature, that we actually can live from each according to his ability to each according to his need.
And there is one social unit in which that works, and that's the family.
But as soon as you get outside the family, the idea that people are going to work just as hard on a collective farm as they are on their own private property is, again, a misreading of human nature.
And I think the idea of building a society in which race can be made not to matter, that too is a misreading of human nature.
Besides which, if you mix races that are different in levels of achievement, And average IQ, you're going to get a mixture that's going to drag the higher IQ group down.
In any case, this commenter wants to know, how do you think future generations will view this period we have lived through?
Why will they think we put up with it?
Will the Internet and the unavoidable, somewhat free expression of ideas that followed be viewed as what caused this era to end?
Well, listener, it hasn't ended yet.
It is far from ending.
It is beginning to end, and this is something that is profoundly gratifying to me and to Mr. Kersey, those of us who have been involved in this struggle for many years.
It's very, very gratifying to see the increasingly large and impressive cracks in this monolithic view that has been so suicidal to us.
But how will they view it?
Well, that's a good question.
I think they will just look back on it and think.
How in heaven's name did it happen?
I guess it's like the people in Eastern Europe.
In the Baltic Republics, for example, they have museums to the Soviet occupation or what it was like as when those countries were communist.
And they've got these exhibits.
Boy, we could have a huge number of exhibits.
Some of those statues of George Floyd, statues of Martin Luther King, all the kind of crazy posters and weird movies and Black Marie Antoinette.
You could fill the entire Smithsonian Museum with exhibits that testify to the folly of the time we've lived through.
Well, I don't think we're going to talk about it, Mr. Taylor, but...
Looks like we are.
Looks like we are.
It's not on the schedule.
It's not on the notes.
But Ahmed Aubrey Day just passed in the great state of Georgia.
And if you remember, that was five years ago.
That actually predated the George Floyd hysteria.
It didn't take off right away because the McMichaels weren't charged until, I want to say it was even after the George Floyd incident in Minneapolis.
Every day, I'm sorry, every year in February, Georgia celebrates Ahmed Arbery Day, and they encourage, the state encourages you to run, oh gosh, what is the amount of?
I think it's 2.2 kilometers.
Isn't that it?
Because didn't he, well, I can't remember now.
I think, is that the distance he ran?
3.23.
Yep, they encourage you to do 2.23 because that is February 23rd, so perhaps that's the reason why.
And they actually had a small group of people.
I saw some photos and some video.
There's a very, very small group gathered on the Beltline there in Atlanta to run that 2.23 miles.
The smaller the better.
I bet it's really just dwindling to nothing.
It is a disgrace to the Republican establishment there in Georgia that they passed that.
We've got a long way to go, folks.
We do.
More than 3.22 miles.
Well, Mr. Kirk.
I do want to say one more thing before we get started.
I encourage all of our listeners to head over to Ameren.com and if you don't have a copy of Essential Writings on Race, get it.
Get it immediately by Sam Francis, because within that volume is, I would argue, one of the most insightful pieces ever written on our struggle, and it is The Roots of the White Man that Sam Francis wrote that was under a pseudonym, I believe, that only came out that he wrote it when you published this volume, correct?
Yes, he had secrets which we kept religiously until he died.
But let's see.
Okay, we've got so much to talk about.
Now we're going to talk about Vivek.
Vivek.
What are the latest addicts of our favorite Indian?
You know, we were going to talk about what all happened at the end of the year in regards to some of his articles and some of the reasons why he might have been removed from the Doge Committee.
But, of course, he is now running for the governor of Ohio, for the Republican nomination for the governor of Ohio, Mr. Taylor and our listeners.
And he has gotten, unfortunately thus far, the endorsements of Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
I think one of the most important things that we're seeing, and by the way, welcome back to Twitter.
Welcome back to X. Congratulations on your success in growing your platform there.
You're going to need that platform to wage this war, because back in September 28th, 2024, Mr. Ramaswamy gave a discussion where he said that there are two competing views of national identity.
One, heritage, blood, and soil.
Two, ideals, allegiance, duty.
He said that most nations are built around number one.
Ours is built around number two.
That's what makes America exceptionalism possible.
Now, I know that you went off on that yesterday on Twitter.
I'll go a little bit further and talk about what he said in his announcement that he's got to run for governor.
Of course, he is right at the turn of the 2024 to 2025, Mr. Taylor.
He also came out and was very hardcore in his opinion that we need to basically have unlimited amounts of H-1B engineers coming over.
Tech specialists, IT specialists, primarily from the continent of India, where he is from.
A little bit of background on Vivek.
His parents were not U.S. citizens.
He is an anchor baby.
He has, because of birthright citizenship, that's the only reason he is considered an American, Mr. Taylor.
So if we were to see, which I am a strong advocate for, the complete destruction of birthright citizenship retroactively, Vivek would no longer be a United States citizen, and nor should he be.
Now, he said this, Mr. Taylor, which I also found somewhat derogatory.
He said, quote, Well, Mr. Taylor, I'm afraid that Vivek is unaware of a basic fact.
Regarding the United States of America, which predates the Bill of Rights, and that of course would be the Naturalization Act of 1790, which was one of the first acts of Congress George Washington signed as president, which stipulates who can be a citizen of this great country.
Well, another thing about Ramaswamy that I learned fairly recently...
Is that he got his billions in what may have turned out to be a very underhanded way.
Didn't he misrepresent the value of some sort of product?
He was hawking.
He was in some sort of medicine business, and it turned out to be snake oil.
Do you know any of the details about that?
I believe it was Alzheimer's.
Yeah.
Again, it was one of these IPO-type things where it was a breakthrough technology.
You see this all the time.
And in this sphere where there's somebody who comes along and claims, I mean, who was that said was the next Steve Jobs or now she's in jail for the blood?
Yeah, I can't remember her name either.
She claimed to be brutally manipulated by some Pakistani guy who was sleeping with her and telling her what to do, and it wasn't really her fault, and she was hypnotized by this guy.
But, yes, it's my impression that Ramaswamy, his company, ended up being, well, I suppose it wasn't illegal to the point of sending him to jail, but it sounds as though it was pretty slimy.
Yeah, I mean...
It was supposed to have done a lot to help out with Alzheimer's.
And having had family who I watched deteriorate from Alzheimer's, I mean, this is something that I think a lot of people want to see addressed.
And whenever there is a purported breakthrough in Alzheimer's technology to reverse dementia, of course people jump in.
Yes.
Well, Mr. Kersey, we've got a lot to talk about here.
Now, I want to talk about the elections in Germany from a slightly different point of view.
As most of our listeners probably know, the Alternative for Deutschland, it doubled its representation in the Bundestag from 10% to 20%, close to 21% really.
And, of course, it's still going to be frozen out because, although millions of Germans think that the AfD represents their views, democracy just does not accept this point of view.
Germany, for the Germans, is just an undemocratic sentiment, and so the rest of the parties are all going to band together and freeze it up.
Now, the aspect of it that was interesting to me is that there had been a poll of users of...
A dating app called Romeo.
It is for, reportedly, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and non-binary people.
Those people.
It's for them.
Well, they, if only they had voted, the AFD would have come in at the top party at 28% rather than 20%.
And the union, the Christian Democratic Union, the Christian Socialist Union, which came in first in the elections this time around at 28.6%, would have been a mere 17.6%, 10 points behind the AFD. Then there are a number of other interesting groupings here, but I thought it was quite significant that if only non-heteros voted, the AFD would have come in way ahead.
And as it turns out, if it were younger non-heteros, those below the age of, I believe, about 35, then the AFD would have had a crushing victory of 33%, far and away the biggest party in all of Germany.
Now, there are a couple of things going on here.
One is that this Romeo dating service, I'm sure, skews overwhelmingly male.
There are far more male homosexuals who are out there cruising for partners, I'm sure, than lesbians, who knows how many transgenders, queers, who all these other people are.
But mostly I bet it's overwhelmingly male.
And men voted for the AFD over women about 23 to 17 percent.
But there is clearly an independent homo effect here.
That homosexuals, and I think their explanation, it's probably not hard to discover, is that they don't like Muslims pouring into their country.
They don't like the idea of being stoned to death or being tossed off of high buildings because they are homosexual.
But so that's a bit of a queer angle on the electoral politics in Germany.
Meanwhile, let's see.
If only Muslims had voted.
See, that's an interesting angle on it too, isn't it?
I agree.
Yes.
Well, if only Muslims had voted, instead of the AFD and the Union, that is to say the Christian Democrats and the Christian Socialists, they refer to themselves as the Union Party, those are sort of Republican-type conservatives.
In the actual elections, together, they earned about 50% of the votes.
If only Muslims had voted, That would have been 18%.
18%.
So that, again, is a huge, that's an even more radical difference.
Left-wing parties, by contrast, would have clocked in with 80% of the vote.
AFD, instead of getting 20% of the vote, if it had been an all-muzzy electorate, they would have gotten only 6%.
6% rather than 21%.
The Greens...
Would have only gotten 4%.
Interestingly, that Muslims have absolutely no interest in the Greens.
But the Muslims are really feeling their oats.
And an article I saw quoted a 46-year-old former Berlin state secretary who is a Palestinian.
She says, it is astonishing we have come thus far.
Don't give up.
It's your country too.
Demographics will...
Create new facts.
Get involved.
Raise your voice, even if they don't want you to.
That's pretty clear, isn't it, Mr. Kersey?
Yes.
Go out there and vote.
Vote muzzy, and even if they don't want you to.
And according to certain projections, there could be as many as 17.5 million Muslims by 2050 in Germany, and they could be 20% of the population.
Can you imagine that?
20% of the population Muslim.
And if that comes to pass by 2050, Muslims will be a huge voting bloc.
And, of course, if we leap across the border to France, France now has the largest Muslim population in Europe.
And last month, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, he is the leader of this group in Parliament called France Unbowed and this new union of the left.
He says, in our country, one person in four.
As a foreign grandparent, 40% of the population speaks at least two languages.
We are destined to be a Creole nation, and so much the better.
Now, when the French talk about a Creole nation, they mean a miscegenated, mixed-race nation.
He says, so much the better.
May the young generation be the great replacement for the old generation.
This guy, I mean, this guy, there's nothing Arab about him.
He's about as French as, I was about to say Napoleon, but Napoleon was a Corsican.
He's about as French as Voltaire.
But this guy is betting on the Great Replacement so that he can gain power.
To me, it is just disgusting to have popular politicians in France saying, yep, yep, yep, this is great.
We are going to be replaced.
We're going to be replaced by these non-whites, these non-Christians, these foreigners.
So much the better.
Well, it reminds me of Vivek in America, Mr. Taylor.
He's basically saying to all the white boomers, and I don't use that word derisively, I use that as a way to say that he's basically trying to say, hey, I'm going to maintain American exceptionalism.
This idea that you believe in, it's not race.
Come on.
Anyone can come over here and we can replicate what you guys gave us.
That's right.
We'll be the ones to take that baton and we'll even go further.
We'll wrap ourselves in the American flag and, oh gosh, we'll have American, we'll have apple pie too, I promise.
America is just an idea.
Just an idea.
And of course, I've always said, okay, if it's just an idea, then you can be a Somali living in a grass shack.
If you've got the right ideas, then you're going to America and you don't even have to come.
So stay over there and be American.
Anyway, now, Mr. Kersey, I believe you have a little story about just one of the signs of the times in McDonald's, McDonald's in Brooklyn.
Tell us all about it.
It's just one of those funny stories.
You know, we've always joked about McDonald's going 365 black, which, by the way, they've backed away from their DEI policies when it comes to trips that they're giving out and also hiring practices.
So that's one of the casualties of this.
War against DEI that we're seeing the right wage.
And Brooklyn McDonald's carding customers under 20 after owner says unruly teens terrorizing restaurant.
So checking IDs and age requirements to get into bars is one thing.
But at one McDonald's in Brooklyn, the owner is requiring customers under the age of 20. They must be accompanied by a parent.
The new policy, of course, has many people scratching their heads.
Not us, of course.
No.
We completely understand without any need to see any surveillance video or footage of altercations transpiring at this McDonald's.
So it comes after the owner says unruly young people from nearby schools are terrorizing his restaurant.
I think it's unfair for some people because, like I said, some people just want to come here and eat, one customer said.
People will now have to show their ID to order a Big Mac or be over 20 to buy a Happy Meal at a McDonald's in Flatbush.
Most customers say the age restriction is a good thing.
I'm sure most of those customers would also say if they were asked, hey, maybe we should bring back freedom of association and discrimination, and then we could not have to have this.
But anyways, so, Mr. Taylor, this is what I found so fascinating.
There are three security guards who were posted at the entrance at this McDonald's.
I mean, imagine the cost and the burden to the overall revenue and profit of this McDonald's when you have to hire three guards.
Well, but Mr. Kersey, probably the price of the three guards is considerably less than cleaning up the damage into your store, the people who don't come because they're terrified, cleaning up the blood on the countertops.
In any case, it's the cost of doing business, cost of doing business.
Now, to me, the real question is, why is there even a franchise in a place like that?
But I guess there is money to be made so long as you're prepared to eat certain costs.
I mean, but three security guards at all entrances.
Why would you just have, you know, why would you just go ahead and just have one entrance as opposed to having three open?
I can tell you that I went to McDonald's recently and it was a very pleasant experience because it was all high school white kids working at the McDonald's.
So which was quite a shock.
Tell me where that was.
I'm not going to tell you where that was.
No, no.
Okay.
All right.
All right.
Yeah, I'll just have to discover it for myself.
It was a very nice area that it was shocking to see a Chick-fil-A type of employee and employment at this McDonald's.
I must say, years ago in Minnesota, it was in Minneapolis.
This was before the Somali tidal wave.
I was staying in a hotel.
And to my surprise, all of the chambermaids that I saw, I must have seen, they were all busy getting ready for the next shift.
There must have been half a dozen of them.
All nice-looking young white ladies.
All spoke perfectly good English.
It was such a shock.
Such a shock.
The rest of the country, you know, they're Hispanics, they're blacks, they're, you know, you can't even tell what they are.
Nice-looking young white ladies who all spoke great English.
At least the ones that I spoke to.
But anyway.
Okay, then moving on to a Supreme Court case.
Now, this may sound a little dry to some of our listeners, but it's an aspect of the United States about which I was completely ignorant.
The Supreme Court had arguments on Wednesday over an employment discrimination suit filed by a heterosexual woman who twice lost positions to homosexuals.
She is Marlene Ames.
And she worked for the Ohio Department of Youth Services.
She applied for promotion.
Her supervisors turned her down and gave the position to a lesbian who'd been in the department for a shorter time and didn't even have a college degree.
And not long after denying her this promotion, her supervisors bounced her from her existing job, demoted her, and offered her a considerably lower pay.
And she was replaced by a homosexual who had leased.
Now, it is the case that the Supreme Court ruled in 2020 that discrimination based on sexual orientation is a form of sex discrimination as far as civil rights law is concerned.
Now, the text of the law, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, one of the great historic mistakes in American legislation, does not draw distinctions based on whether the person claiming discrimination is a member of a majority or minority group.
So there's nothing in the law that says people who are in the majority, and thank goodness, heterosexuals are still in the majority.
The fact that they are being discriminated against, you shouldn't have any kind of different standard of proof.
But some courts...
And this is the aspect that was news to me, despite the fact that I thought I was pretty savvy about discrimination law.
Some courts have required that such plaintiffs, if you are from a majority group, you have to prove an additional element of evidence of discrimination.
And the usual way of putting it is background circumstances that support the suspicion That the defendant is that unusual employer who discriminates against the majority.
The idea is, oh, nobody's really.
Yeah, I mean, you can't assume that anybody is discriminating against white people.
I mean, that's just unthinkable, right?
Or heterosexuals.
Oh, that'd just be unthinkable.
Well, a lawyer, in other words, if you are a member of the majority.
And you say, I've been discriminated against.
Then a lawyer from the Trump administration says that this special level of evidence to prove discrimination means that you are saying to the court, or the court is saying to you, tell me your race, and I will tell you how much evidence you need to produce that you are discriminated against.
Now, Justice Kagan, even Justice Kagan, looks like every one of the justices, even Justice Kagan and the other sort of mysterious people who are up there, she says the only question is whether a majority group plaintiff has to show something more than a minority group plaintiff. she says the only question is whether a majority group Whether a straight person has to show more than a gay person to prove discrimination.
And Justice Kagan said he envisioned a really short opinion that says discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, whether it's because you're gay or you're straight, is prohibitive, period.
Now, as I say, I wasn't even aware that in certain courts now, apparently it's only half of the nation's federal appeals courts require this kind of extra burden of proof.
If you are a majority person.
presumably white.
I don't know if it's the same for men versus women.
If the idea is, oh my gosh, nobody discriminates against men, that's just unheard of out of the question.
And if you're a man claiming discrimination, you've got to go that extra mile and say, no, no, no, look, look, look, here's all this evidence.
In any case, if you're heterosexual or if you're white, you have to add that, go that, go that extra mile to prove that you were hard done by.
Half the nation's federal courts require that.
Did you know that, Mr. Curves?
No, I didn't.
I didn't know this until a tweet that I saw, and I think a lot of people were incredulous.
Where'd this come from?
Well, in any case, it's no surprise to me, and no surprise to you, and probably no surprise to our listeners.
The NAACP thinks this is a fine rule.
Of course.
It filed a brief of the court and said, The virtual absence of discrimination targeting certain majority groups like white people and straight people is well documented and is a relevant and important consideration.
So they want the special requirements for you and me, Mr. Kersey.
I think it's safe to say that we are both white and both heterosexual.
No questions on either score for either of us.
But you and I would have to show extra evidence of discrimination if we were suing in those regions.
So we will see.
Now, and my guess is that little provision of the law will be thrown out.
As I say, it looks like even Katenji Brown and Kagan and Sotomayor, they're all going to line up and say, nope, nope, nope.
If a white guy's been discriminated against, well, you know, he's been discriminated against.
He doesn't have to show extra proof.
Okay, now, here is another interesting little story.
There are various ways to fight illegal immigration.
And the states are coming up with some intriguing ideas.
Tennessee's governor signed a law expanding K-12 school vouchers for parents.
It's a $447 million program.
It's being called universal for parents in the state.
However, Republican legislators have made sure that there is one group that will not be able to take advantage of the program.
The Department of Education is to deny any application where a family cannot establish the student's lawful president of the United States.
No vouchers for illegals.
That's great.
Well, what do you think of that?
And as I say, the vouchers would be worth $7,000 each.
And there is a certain set-aside for lower-income and disabled students.
The rest are open for anybody, but only for people who can prove that they are in the country legally.
So, no handouts for illegals.
In Oklahoma, state school superintendent Ryan Walters Is clashing with moderate Republican Governor Kevin Stitt due to proposal approved by the State Board of Education to have schools determine the immigration status of children as they register for school.
The governor, moderate governor, moderate Republicans are, you know, you might as well just call them Democrats anyway.
They don't want that.
Can't figure out if there's anybody illegal.
No, no, no.
And also, legislators in Texas and Indiana are also looking for ways to link immigration to schooling, like Oklahoma.
It's going to track students' immigration status, and so lawmakers in Texas have introduced House Bill 1512 that would collect data on the legal status of children registering for school.
And in Indiana, House Bill 1394 has been introduced, which would block children of illegals from enrolling in school.
So, there is, before Trump came along, it's hard for me to imagine something like this even happening.
This is happening in state after state after state.
Once the ball gets rolling, once somebody stands up and says the equivalent of the emperor has new clothes.
Namely, these people are here illegally.
They're criminals.
Their children are here illegally.
They are, in effect, criminals too.
Too bad.
We don't want to give them services.
Once the door is open, there are plenty of people prepared to go through.
Well, there are plenty of people prepared to try and stop it.
Like you said, these moderate Republicans who have dreams of being...
A do-nothing congressman once their term has expired.
And I think the states that have the largest percentage of illegal aliens are obviously the states that will have the largest number of children of illegal aliens.
Places, North Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia, and obviously Texas, and Tennessee.
And I think especially the places where they're because of the booming metropolitan areas like Nashville and Atlanta and Charlotte.
And Northern Virginia.
So hopefully, you know, Virginia's got a big election coming up, but it doesn't look good.
No, it doesn't.
No, it doesn't.
And they're trying to get the current Lieutenant Governor, Winston Sears, who's this useless black lady.
Oh, my gosh.
She's one of these so-called Republicans.
You know, actually, I went to one of her little campaign events and in front of a group of overwhelmingly white people.
She said something like, I'm from the party of Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington.
And all the white people in the audience clapped.
What in heaven's name?
That is what characterizes Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington?
I mean, Frederick Douglass was appointed as ambassador to Haiti.
I don't think of him as a big whoop-de-doo Republican.
Or Booker T. Washington, for heaven's sake.
Those are the three Republicans she named, and all the white people in the room are just grinning ear to ear and clapping and applauding.
Disgusting.
I just can't believe she didn't mention Harriet Tubman.
I mean, come on.
She was leaving out the four horsemen.
I know.
I know.
Why'd she even include that old white guy with a beard, either?
Yeah.
After all, he wanted to repatriate most of the Republicans.
That's right.
That's the kind of Republican I like.
Well, Mr. Kersey, Fort Bragg.
Tell me about Fort Bragg.
Now, this seems to be kind of a wimpy ending, a wimpy, happy ending, but I suppose it's a happy ending.
So, do tell.
I think it's a very happy ending.
Who cares?
We all know what it was originally named for.
If you recall, Fort Liberty was replaced during the Biden administration.
This was also part of the George Floyd makeover America.
And the story is that Fort Liberty makes name change, officially reverts back to Fort Bragg, effective immediately.
Now, when I first read this story, Mr. Taylor, I didn't read the details.
So like you, it's kind of like, huh, okay.
So less than a week after the Trump administration official signed an order to switch the title of Fort Liberty back to Fort Bragg, the name change is official.
The North Carolina military base is once again bearing its old name in a move that is effective immediately.
This renaming honors the legacy of World War II hero, private first class.
Roland L. Bragg and all soldiers and families who have called Fort Bragg home.
So, okay, a little bit of a retconning going on here.
We look forward to inviting the community to attend an official ceremony and a date to be determined in the very near future.
Now, tell me, do you know anything about this Bragg character?
No, that's the only thing that's in the story is that he served.
It's almost as if they just tried to go back and find...
They found any Bragg they possibly could.
Yeah, because obviously Fort Bragg was named after a general from Warrington who was known for owning slaves.
And as the article says, losing key Civil War battles that contributed to the Confederacy's downfall.
It was named in 1918 for General Braxton Bragg.
But basically what you're seeing is...
It's going back to being that name.
People are going to remember this.
Fort Bragg.
It's one of the biggest bases.
It stations about 50,000 troops, 14,000 civilians flying the C-17 from Joint Base Andrews.
It's a small victory.
Let's call it that.
It's not going to be something where people are going to be like, oh my gosh, who's this World War II soldier?
It is, and it was named after a Confederate leader, which of course the article tries to be like, well, he was a loser anyways, why are we remembering him?
Well, at least this was not some Yankee soldier.
At least it was a World War II soldier, this insignificant unknown brag.
Correct.
It goes back to the whole thing if you're going to rename something for Robert E. Lee, just try and find someone with the last name Lee and then just retcon it.
Well, yeah, then claim that you're renaming it for Bruce Lee.
You know, there is King County.
King County is the Washington State County that includes Seattle.
Correct.
And King, the original King, was a slaveholder.
Even way out there on the West Coast.
Well, they now have changed the name King, but guess who the eponymous King is?
It's, of course, St. Martin.
So, that's one way to do it, too.
They didn't have to change the stationery.
Nobody had to change his address.
But now we're honoring the great patron saint of American equality, Martin Luther King, instead of, I think it was, who was it?
Rufus?
I can't remember.
Some king who was a bad, bad, bad, bad white guy like all of them in those days, and all of them today, too.
Well, moving on to Moscow.
Moscow.
This is a story from the Moscow Times.
Officials in St. Petersburg, they announced a plan to equip thousands of the city's surveillance cameras with, drumroll please, ethnicity recognition software.
Yep, yep, yep.
It can tell you from Ilhan Omar.
Yes.
That's not possible.
Oh, I know.
It's very subtle.
It's very subtle.
You know, there's very fine-tuned stuff.
The St. Petersburg city government purchased an ethnic recognition software license for the equivalent of half a million dollars from an unidentified vendor as part of the city's Safe City program.
They're pretty straightforward about it.
And it is probably a Chinese security firm.
That marketed the stuff.
Now, they have apparently been pretty good at this.
And one of the reasons that they have developed this is that they can tell Uyghurs, these sort of Central Asian types who are Muslim and, you know, they don't look that different from Han Chinese, but they have got ethnic identification software that can tell them apart.
They like to know where the Uyghurs are gathering, what they're up to, and so they're spying on them all the time.
Well, St. Petersburg, these officials said the system would help, and I thought this was a nice way of phrasing it.
They would help authorities predict resource needs for maintaining order at public spectacle events.
What do you think of that?
And also optimize the deployment of volunteers and law enforcement.
Now, it seems to me, Mr. Kirk, the obvious conclusion here is, why aren't American cities getting this stuff?
Now, I don't know.
I suppose our thing is, a security camera, I suppose unless some person is looking at it, you don't have ethnicity recognition going on.
But it would be very nice if the camera all by itself, you know, once it reaches a certain threshold, it'd send out this little ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, and the police could know where the potentially dangerous places were.
Anyway, Moscow's ahead of us.
Let's see, but back to Germany.
Well, if I could, one thing, just to go back to the story you said about King County, because we'd like to be historically accurate here.
It was William Rufus King, who was the vice president of the United States in 1852. It was back in 2005 that two state legislators successfully had the name changed because of the horror of celebrating and...
Commemorating the name of a white slave owner in the state of Washington.
So that had to be changed.
So it was William Rufus King.
I had this Rufus in my mind somehow.
So that was back in 2005, was it?
20 years ago?
2005, yeah.
They were ahead of their time, weren't they?
Boy, woke before it was cool to be woke.
I guess it's always been cool to be welcome, unfortunately.
Yeah, it has to have its genesis somewhere.
Yeah.
Well, okay, yes, back to Germany.
Prospective Chancellor Friedrich Mertz.
His pre-election rhetoric on border control continues to crumble following the arrival of a flight of 155 Afghans, the first since the vote, and it landed...
In Berlin on February 25th.
Two flights from Islamabad.
They were living in Pakistan, where they are persona non grata.
Nobody wants them there.
But even if Pakistanis don't want Afghans, Frederick Mertz loves them.
They were cancelled before the vote.
Now, theoretically due to logistical problems, but it's clear that now The mass transit of these undesirables is underway.
And Germany has, you see, accepted almost 50,000 Afghans since the country fell into the clutches of the Taliban once again, August 2021, just three and a half years ago.
50,000 of them lurking, swarming, populating the streets of Germany.
One official from Future Chancellor Mert's Christian Democratic Union Party said it was remarkable impudence on the part of the federal government to stop the flights in a media effective manner just before the election, only to allow them to take place after the vote.
You know, elections.
When people claim that they're going to stop immigration, really curb it remarkably, or get rid of all of these people who don't belong, it's almost always a bait switch.
But the switch comes usually maybe months, years, or gradually and subtly after the bait.
But in the case of these Germans, they're doing it right away.
They say, okay, we're going to stop these flights.
And okay, now we're in office.
Okay, take off.
Bring them all in.
And during the campaign, this alliance of the Christian Democrats and the Christian Socialists, they had vowed to turn back illegal migrants at Germany's borders.
But then, not even 24 hours after the returns were in, Mertz got on TV and he said, no, no, maybe we talked about that, but that's not going to happen.
That's not going to happen.
Again, With just breathtaking speed, they pull these U-turns that most people, most of these frauds are a little bit too sheepish to go back on their words so quickly.
And meanwhile, Mr. Kersey, the traditional German carnival season, it started on Thursday.
And with the usual potential terrorist attacks looming over the festivities.
Islamists, suspected of belonging to ISIS, have used social media platforms to call for attacks.
And there's an ISIS website that has a list of four targets.
Two in Cologne, one in Yerberg, and one in also the Dutch port city of Rotterdam.
They have big festivals.
Big carnival festivals.
And of course, carnival is the carnival.
It's a Christian holiday, really.
It's before Lent.
You whoop it up before Lent, if my recollection is correct.
And so this whooping up in the name of Christianity is absolutely intolerable to these muzzies, and so they are encouraging attacks.
The Cologne police describe the security situation to be more intense than in previous years, and announce plans to beef up security.
Police are setting up barriers to protect against attacks with cars, the like of which we have seen repeatedly in Germany.
And they will carry out checks for knives.
I could just see that.
You're going into a carnival and somebody's going to frisk you down looking for a knife.
You go through a metal detector.
You've got a pocket knife.
You've probably got to give it away.
Of course, muzzies have been carrying out these attacks almost on a weekly basis, ramming cars into crowds in Munich and stabbing attacks.
Well, and as it turns out, larger cities that can afford the security are going ahead with their plans to have these carnival festivals.
But smaller towns, for example, Marburg and Kempton, they have canceled festivals, saying they are unable to finance the significantly increased level of security measures that would be required.
And yet, only 20% of the voters in Germany vote for AFD.
And, you know, for you and me, the idea of AFD, the alternative for Deutschland, Germany for the Germans, the fact that it doubled its electoral success from 10 to 20% is a great thing.
But again, that means 80% of the voters voted for somebody else, despite, despite this reality slapping them in the face every day.
Well, I mean, the German people are far more inculcated than we are.
I mean, you know, the sin of World War II is something that they can never escape from.
I know.
There is no reconciliation possible.
The amount of guilt that they suffer is worse than ours.
And like you said, you know, in America, we're going to have McDonald's stay open, even though you have to have.
Three security guards, one at every entrance, and you have to check IDs.
Whereas in my little white enclave, I walk right in and I have a smiling white.
I say, hey, welcome to McDonald's.
What can I get you today?
And I see no security guards.
And you feel fine.
You feel perfectly safe without security guards.
And you know what?
I order a hamburger with extra bacon, which you can't probably do in Germany right now.
Oh, probably not.
Probably not, yes.
Well, here's another little German story, and then I'll leave the Germans alone for a while.
No, no, I've got two German stories.
Hang on, folks.
Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany.
Its latest state of the art residential complex is nearing completion, but not for Germans.
This this $50 million project is exclusively reserved for migrants.
It's a six building complex, 107 modern apartments for 370 asylum seekers, floor to ceiling windows, What do you think of that?
Green roofs.
I'm not quite sure what that is, but I think, you know, you've got lawns up on top of the roof, balconies, heating under the floor.
It represents thick.
Pinnacle of contemporary urban living.
It's got communal spaces, playgrounds, and get this, on-site social workers to ensure a smooth integration process.
On-site social workers.
That means if you're there and you can't figure out how to get handouts, there is a social worker who will help you fill out the forms.
Not a single German will be allowed in.
The project is part of the Living in the Future initiative, designed exclusively for families, quote, seeking protection with an escape background.
Well, these immigrants, they claim to be escaping misery back home.
Well, this is a pretty nice escape right into a luxury apartment.
Normally, such a project would require a consultation process that takes years, allowing citizens to have their say in what goes up in their town, but not this time.
The Hamburg Senate bypassed all the standard processes, citing an urgent need to house these newcomers, these foreigners, in the style that they deserve.
And across Germany, the government is prioritizing migrant accommodation, squeezing Germans out.
In Berlin, a 128-apartment social housing complex in Spandau.
That's where the prison was.
Lots to be said about Spandau, but we won't go into that now.
Originally intended for low-income Berliners, was approved.
To serve 570 asylum seekers indefinitely.
In the Bavarian town of Sieshaupt, don't know where that is, there are luxury asylum homes and Berlin schools face budget freezes, school trips and teacher reimbursements cut even as the government allocates 1.3 billion euros.
That's probably about one and a half million billion dollars.
We're talking about billions here for migrant housing.
The rents are state-funded and taxpayers foot the bill.
Free houses, free houses for these people who don't belong.
Then one last little jab, one last little jab at Germans.
Foreign doctors are not a solution in the soaring healthcare shortages seen in Germany.
In many cases, these foreign doctors actually represent a threat to patients, according to a senior doctor in Lower Saxony.
He conducted an in-depth interview.
With a magazine about, I'm sorry, it is a she, this is a lady, conducted this interview.
She says she works in a special, she's a specialist in internal medicine and cardiology in Lower Saxony.
She says there are serious differences in medical training between countries.
And of course, she spoke under conditions of anonymity.
Out of 10 foreign doctors, only one would I let loose on patients, she says.
In connection with an Arab colleague, the public prosecutor's office has already ordered an autopsy of a person.
The colleague put a gastric tube into the lung and a central venous catheter into an artery in the neck.
Now, apparently, these are, I guess, a gastric tube doesn't go into the lung.
It goes into the stomach.
And a catheter or a vein doesn't go into an artery.
And the patient died.
So the public prosecutor is looking into this.
When this lady who's talking about it goes off duty and comes back on duty, she has to review everything that these foreign doctors have taken and done to their patients in order to ensure patient health doing the right thing.
And the more Muslim the colleagues have been through their socialization, the more muzzy they are, the harder they are to deal with in everyday life, she says.
many Muslim colleagues have great difficulty accepting criticism.
Since they have a very strong sense of honor, they feel immediately attacked.
What I want to explain objectively to a doctor colleague how to issue a drug certificate, for example.
He shouted at me and accused me of racism.
Now, again, again, well, of course, we are just as astonishing people.
We had our listener who said, gee, how are future generations going to imagine that white people stood still for all of these horrors through which we lived?
And likewise, we have to look at the Germans and say, how can these people not vote AFD? But as you say, and we were part of it, they have been brainwashed, bullied, just turned into spineless invertebrates because of Adolf Hitler.
Well, not just that, Mr. Taylor, the amount of state surveillance on AFD members and imprisonment of AFD members.
Well, that's all part of the consequence of thinking, oh my gosh, the ghost of Hitler.
Hitler is looking over our shoulder every day.
But anyway, well, Mr. Kersey, we don't have much time, but can you quickly tell us about $2 billion that was likely to go into the pockets of people associated with Stacey Abrams?
Well, this is one of the fun things about Doge.
Doge discovered $2 billion in taxpayer funds set aside for a fledgling nonprofit linked to perennial Georgia Democrat candidate Stacey Abrams, our favorite romance author, which we still need to read some of her romantic fiction.
The Environment Protection Agency under the Biden administration awarded Power Forward Communities the grant in April 2024 as part of the agency's Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund program.
It reported just $100 in total revenue during its first three months in operation according to its latest tax filings.
And yet it was awarded $2 billion in funds.
This was an organization that was loosely affiliated with Stacey Abrams.
It was one of just eight Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund grants that the EPA doled out in April 2024 totaling $20 billion.
$20 billion?
Astronomical amounts of money that it's part of this patronage system that the left used the federal government to reward and benefit the friends of the administration, those who weren't allocated positions within the administration.
A lot of people thought Stacey Abrams might have been the VP candidate back in 2020. Mr. Taylor, I'm sure you remember that.
She was on that short list.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
As was Kisha Bottoms, who was the former mayor of Atlanta.
She was on that short list as well because of how she purportedly handled the riots in Atlanta.
So it's just fascinating to watch all this.
You know, Doge is doing – the Department of Government Efficiency is doing great work and this type of stuff that it's important to bring to light.
From what you have seen there, is there any way to claw back any of these billions of dollars?
Or are they already spent?
They're in these unworthy pockets and there's nothing we can do about it?
You know, that's one of the fascinating things about all these stories that you're hearing is how is there going to be, you know, recrimination?
Or is that even part of the game?
Because again, as the article says, an EPA administrator said, it's extremely concerning that an organization that reported just $100 in revenue in 2023 was chosen to receive $2 billion.
20 million times the organization's reported revenue.
Well, revenue's not everything, you know.
It's brains, brains and melanin enhancement, you know.
So they're going to figure it out.
This is just greenhouse gases stuff.
This is just improving the atmosphere.
You know, Stacey Abrams, I'm sure her pals are good at that.
Well, Mr. Kersey, our time has come.
I forgot to mention how our listeners are to get in touch with us.
We love to hear from you.
We really do.
And the way to do it, you have two ways of going about it.
One is to go to amren.com, A-M-R-E-N.com, and go to the Contact Us tab.
And you click there, and you can type in a message, and it will come to me.
And the other way to do it is...
Hey, send me an email.
Because we live here at protonmail.com, or because we live here at proton...
Congratulations again, Mr. Taylor, on your amazing return to Twitter.
It's going to be needed here as so many things are happening.
And again, you know, not to blackpill, I think it's exciting that the AFD doubled their support in light of all the animosity and all the...
Okay.
Yes, indeed.
Yes, indeed.
No, I am optimistic, but then I've always been optimistic, but I'm more optimistic than ever.
So, ladies and gentlemen, it is a privilege, a pleasure, an honor to be with you, and we look forward to spending this time with you again next week.
