	Ladies and gentlemen, dear listeners, welcome to Radio Renaissance.
	I'm your host, Charita Taylor, and with me is my indispensable co-host, Paul Kersey.
	Today is October 30th, 2025.
	That means, I guess, tomorrow's Halloween.
	Boy, since I don't have children in the house anymore, I don't think much about Halloween, but I'll have a bag of goodies waiting for all little kitties in the neighborhood.
	Well, Mr. Kersey, let us start with comments, as usual.
	Someone writes in and say, Mr. Taylor, on your latest show, you don't fully support taking the leftist statues down.
	And you said maybe we should keep them up as a reminder of our follies.
	Do you really want to keep up a statue of George Floyd sitting on a park bench?
	Or the black woman in sweatpants on their cell phones with angry scowls?
	Well, I think those are two different matters, actually.
	George Floyd sitting on a park bench.
	That is an expression of public political belief, which is what public monuments are all about.
	These black women in sweatpants, these overfed black women, I'm not sure there are any in the United States yet.
	They're all over Europe.
	Mr. Kersey, do you know of any in the United States?
	There's the one in Times Square in New York City.
	There is?
	In Times Square?
	Yes, in Times Square, there is one.
	Well, I think of them as sort of works of art.
	That's in a slightly different category in my mind.
	And a lot of the so-called works of art, I'm perfectly happy to go.
	I mean, those things change all the time, but these sort of monuments to American historical figures, maybe that's an artificial distinction.
	But in any case, let's see.
	Our listener goes on to say, some of these monstrosities are in city centers and even small towns.
	I know many locals would be happy to get rid of them.
	I think relocating them to some strip of desert, making a remembrance of them there would be plenty.
	Don't forget at the height of the Black Lives Matter hysteria here in St. Louis, you had locals of all leftist ideologies and colors frothing at the mouth trying to take down the statue of St. Louis.
	That was Louis X, as I believe, King of France.
	Here it is on Art Hill outside of the Art Museum.
	Louisville was named for him, too.
	They were also calling to rename the city.
	Well, all that's that's, you know, that's fine.
	That didn't happen.
	One day, a large group of Christians came from all parts of the city and the state and were praying at the base of the statue.
	I suppose they were praying that black lives would matter someday in a better America.
	And a black protester came up and started to punch them, claiming he thought they were KKK.
	It was a big story here in the city, and further red-pilled people.
	In St. Louis, there doesn't seem to be much middle ground.
	People are either very red-pilled or brainwashed leftists.
	When the news is never ending, you either accept reality or you make up mental gymnastics to justify it.
	So, no, I hadn't heard that story about people wanting to take down the statue of Saint-Louis.
	And I certainly hadn't heard that story about Christians praying and being punched by a guy who claims they're KKK, but people, black people, are prepared to believe anything.
	It's actually worth looking into that story because there's a lot to King Louis, and that's a beautiful statue.
	I was there this past year in St. Louis, and we went to Forest Park where they had the World's Fair back in, I think it was 1904.
	And the Art Museum is one of the only pieces of real estate that still remains from that glorious exhibition.
	Louisville, Kentucky has a very nice downtown statue of King Louis also.
	Yes, very impressive.
	I'm a little bit surprised if BLM people have absolutely any idea who these people are.
	They just see a white man, they want to tear it down.
	Let's see another, this is a comment who sent in a news story that I had certainly missed.
	But a Labrador retriever named Mitch suffered devastating internal injuries after a staff member at the Lazy Dog Crazy Dog Daycare Center, should have been crazy staff daycare center, in Ballard viciously kicked and punched him according to charging documents.
	20-year-old DeGene Cornelius Bowens.
	I don't believe we need to elaborate further on just what sort of person DeGene is.
	But he attacked the boarded dog, causing fatal injuries.
	Bowens became irate after the six-year-old dog knocked something over.
	Investigators say Bowens repeatedly kicked and punched Mitch, continuing the brutal attack even after the terrified dog tried to cower under a table.
	Mitch died from internal bleeding caused by ruptured kidney.
	Bowens, if convicted of animal cruelty, could face a maximum penalty of five years in jail and a fine.
	Now, Mr. Cursey, was it just last week we had a story about a white guy who took his toddler to daycare for the first day, the very first day of daycare.
	And he picks a guy up, a little fella up at the end of the day, and he's got this terrible shiner and scratches all over his face.
	And this black lady says, oh, one of the other kids attacked him.
	No, she just brutally went to town on this guy.
	I mean, this sort of thing happens in old folks' homes, too.
	You get these imported people who just are not operating on the same wavelength as white people.
	Beating up poor white people, some of them are demented, raping them in some cases.
	It's just outrageous.
	Well, just a quick segue.
	You remember that horrific story back in 2020, maybe 2019, of the black serial killer, who's an African immigrant who killed all the white people in the nursing homes.
	Texas.
	I'm sorry, he killed white people where?
	In nursing homes in Texas.
	He was like Billy Chimmer or something.
	I don't remember his name.
	Shamir Mir was his name.
	Yes.
	Smothered all these poor white ladies.
	And I can't remember how many, a dozen of them, a score of them?
	And it was all very suspicious.
	You'd find them dead and gee, all their jewelry's gone.
	Gee, what happened?
	Did they swallow the jewelry and then they died?
	Wait, well, this crazy stuff took them a long time to find it.
	But anyway, no, but that's sort of an obvious criminal element preying on people.
	But here, you take your dog to a dog daycare or a doggy boarding place and have it kicked to death by one of the staff.
	Good glory.
	Golly, golly.
	I mean, in a way, it's, I mean, obviously it's worse if something happens to a human being.
	But a dog is unoffending.
	Apparently, this black labradory was just the sweetest dog, and dogs are not deliberately doing anything.
	And to kick one to death like that, and it's your job to look after it.
	Apparently, he was fired right away.
	Well, I hope he gets fired right into the big house.
	Let's see.
	Here's another comment.
	Today I came into Manhattan to pick up trash from Washington Square Park with a group of American patriots.
	That's a mighty nice thing to do.
	And oddly, the city isn't doing that.
	So white people who care about their country go into Washington Square Park and pick up trash.
	On the subways these days, you notice that the facility itself, the subway itself, is rotting before our eyes.
	And construction repair projects go on for years with no visible result.
	Also, on the subway, there are new animated digital signs.
	I guess that's one new thing they got going.
	And they're constantly flashing in languages, including Hindi, African, and Arab languages, imploring subway writers to vote.
	These signs are on display before the city election.
	And they are signed that Madami is the regime's candidate and was probably trained and chosen as the Khan of New York.
	Khan is, of course, a reference to Sadiq Khan, the Muslim mayor of London, who I think he's been mayor there for about eight years.
	He's in his third term now.
	And I'm sure he's being supported by the same people who ran Khan for mayor.
	If you saw how overrun New York is, it would break your heart.
	But never let it break your spirit.
	Our grandchildren will reconquer our cities after we fortify ourselves in the homeland, says the commenter.
	Okay, now this I thought was quite interesting.
	A listener sends this news item.
	A video containing threats of cannibalism against white people in relation to the potential lapse of SNAP benefits during the government shutdown was shared on social media.
	The post includes a quote from a woman saying, I will hunt you white animals down and most and eat you.
	Delectable crackers and cheese.
	Mr. Kersey, I think you would make a delectable cracker with Velveeta cheese.
	Maybe on a sneak.
	I'd hope someone would go with a little better cheese than that.
	I don't know.
	On a slice of white bread, you know, wonder bread, cursey, wonder bread, and Velveeta cheese.
	Well, I mean, I think that's just what snap people would love to eat.
	Now, this news item says no credible news source identifies the authenticity of the fret.
	In fact, multiple reports indicate that AI-generated videos depicting black women angrily discussing EBT benefits have been circulating on TikTok.
	These videos use exaggerated black language.
	And so fictional scenarios of black women trying to use EBT cards in such places as coffee shops or military bases.
	I wonder if they try to use them in wig shops or nail salons.
	Experts and social media users have raised concerns that such AI-generated content is designed to provoke outrage and deepen societal divisions.
	Well, Mr. Kersey, you're more of an expert on this than I. I believe you've already discussed this with Mr. Deanna on his program, just what will happen if EBT payments come to an end.
	But I think how they behave is what's going to provoke outrage and deepen societal divisions if, in fact, those payments don't come.
	Now, Mr. Kersey, how does it work?
	I guess you've got an EBT card, it just automatically, every month, gets something loaded onto it.
	They don't get such an available.
	It's a debit card.
	And you get it loaded.
	I've been in a grocery store before, and I saw someone who had a shopping cart bursting with amazing delectables.
	And I was like, wow, they got a feast planned.
	And I saw them pull out their EBT card, and they made a joking reference to how much they still had left on it.
	And I just thought to it, and when the person left, the guy looked at me and he goes, can you believe that at the grocery store?
	And I said, hey, I work hard to support my family and food.
	And that's a little over the top right there.
	And you work hard to support her, too.
	Like it or not.
	Was it, in fact, a lady?
	It was.
	It was a very nicely dressed black lady.
	Yes.
	My goodness.
	Well, well, ladies and gentlemen, those are our comments for the week, and we'd love to hear from you.
	As I say, I had not heard about that poor black Labrador that was punched and kicked to death by somebody who was supposed to be looking out for it.
	These are quite fascinating stories, and we'd love to hear your opinions.
	And whenever Kersey or I jump the track, more likely than Kersey, Kersey never jumps the trap.
	But if we make a mistake, please call it to our attention.
	I hate to be a purveyor of fake news, even if I think it's the truth at the time.
	So the way to reach us is you can go to admiran.com, A-M-R-E-N.com, go to the contact us page and send a note, and it'll come to me or.
	Because we live here at ProtonMail.com.
	Email address again, because we live here at ProtonMail.com.
	And Mr. Taylor, quick plug.
	I think the conference is coming up in less than two weeks.
	It sure is.
	November 14th through 16th.
	There are still a few places available.
	We just got a couple of new speakers.
	One is Greg Johnson, the great Greg Johnson of Countercurrents.
	He will be there.
	And another is a lady comedian.
	Golly, her name is escaping my mind now, but she is a wide awake, woke former leftist who has become a white advocate and is making quite a name for herself on the comedy circuit.
	If I could jump in real quick, I would say she's awoke, not woke.
	Oh, anti-woke.
	Did I say she's woke?
	Oh, I beg your pardon.
	You said she's wide woke.
	Sorry.
	She's wide awake.
	Wide awake.
	Yes.
	Anti-woke.
	Yes.
	In my view, wide awake is the opposite of being woke.
	I suppose that is ambiguous, though.
	But we don't want to say completely asleep as an opposite to woke because we ain't asleep, folks.
	Actually, you know what?
	I think we're going to coin a term here.
	I like the term white awake.
	Oh, white awake.
	Oh, that's great.
	When you're white awake, that means that you are completely beyond this woke nonsense or the so-called woke right that these goofs are pushing on social media to try and denounce anybody who dares have contrarian views on certain issues.
	So if you're white awake, ladies and gentlemen, white awake.
	You're on the right side of history.
	Yes, indeed.
	Well, certainly on the right side of the facts, right side of history, right side of human nature, right side of morality, you are absolutely 100% in the right.
	Well, to carry further on this SNAP business, I think whether or not some of those things are generated by AI, these days you can hardly tell the difference.
	I'm a real sucker for this stuff.
	I'm staring at it, and it's only later that, oh, well, gosh, that's right.
	There is AI, and you just never know.
	But Walmart and other grocery stores across the New York area are being threatened with mass looting after the SNAP benefits expire on Saturday.
	The threats have cropped up, and these are real threats on social media after the Department of Ag announced that November food stamp payments would not be made to some 42 million Americans.
	Now, my guess, you may know the statistics better than I, Mr. Kersey, but I think those 42 million, those are the recipients, and I bet there are millions more who are the children of the recipients.
	I was going to ask one of these intelligent programs just what percentage of Americans are actually feeding at the public trough, thanks to SNAP and WIC, but I never got around to that.
	But I bet that 42 million needs to be augmented by dependents who are also feasting thanks to your hard work.
	Recipients are threatening to take matters into their own hands.
	Postings on TikTok and Facebook have cropped up, encouraging people to coordinate.
	We're going to effing Walmart, and at 7.30, we're going to walk out.
	Let's see, we're going to effing Walmart at 6.30.
	And at 7.30, we're going to walk out with our effing buggies, says TikTok user Hershey Kisses in a video post.
	The thing is, they can't catch everybody.
	All you got to do is run.
	Similar threats are targeting local grocery chain Food Bazaar, which has 28 locations in the Big Apple.
	The East New York store, which has had problems with theft even before.
	This campaign employs two to three security guards per shift.
	Other grocery and retail stores are being advised to remain extra vigilant next week.
	Social media users have been publicly threatening to steal food for more than a week.
	It's interesting to me how well informed they are.
	I guess they track those food stamps, those SNAP and EBT payments pretty closely.
	But look out there, folks.
	November 3rd is the big day.
	That is apparently the day when the money is supposed to come in.
	And if it don't, there may be some African Americanesses out there who wish to catch you, roast you, and eat you.
	So you have been warned.
	And let's see, more.
	They should roast you first, though.
	That's right.
	What did I say?
	Catch you, roast you, and eat you.
	But you know, Mr. Taylor, real quick question for you, because I know you pay attention to finance.
	I read this perspective back in 2013 that JP Morgan put out that they said that the continued growth and proliferation of SNAP EBT program would be good for the economy and be good for shareholders of grocery stores because it was guaranteed revenue that would be generated monthly.
	So from a revenue forecasting, demand forecasting position and for a just revenue management, you would know what part of the month based on data that you collected when to have certain items in place that were bought primarily by the people using Snap.
	And what really blew my mind, sir, you talked about Walmart.
	Of EBT shoppers, 24% of EBT shoppers go and they use their card at Walmart.
	The next closest one is Kroger with 7%.
	I can't believe this, but this is true.
	Amazon now is really going all in on the EBT food snap market.
	They represent 4% of the purchases.
	You know, I was, was I telling you this?
	I was in some store and there was a whole row of Amazon lockers in the checkout area.
	And I asked one of the people who was working there, what's the story here?
	Why would you have Amazon delivered to a locker and then you've got to come out and get it?
	And they said, oh, lots of homeless people do it or people who are ordering things that they don't want anybody in their family to know about.
	And I said, oh, oh, the bums pick up their stuff here.
	And he looks very angry.
	The homeless people.
	But in any case, I wonder if, but I don't quite understand.
	Why would you send stuff by Amazon?
	I mean, it's all food, right?
	So how does, how does, I mean, Amazon is sending food?
	Is that how you do it?
	You can go to Amazon and look up some food.
	A lot of people on media, sir, they've been posting screenshots of certain items, lobster tails that are EBT eligible.
	And I was looking at like Halloween candy.
	You could order Reese's cups or Skittles or Eminem's, and it said EBT eligible.
	And so you're sitting there thinking to yourself, this is an insane growth model for Amazon to try and capture some of that market share that Walmart has such a foothold on.
	Well, you know, it is rather revolting that the analysts are saying, hey, if you are a stockholder, this is great.
	Your company has got a guaranteed income.
	They know exactly when they need to lay in the pork rinds and the hog jewels and the sweet potato pie.
	So I guess what was that quote you told me from, I believe it was, Was it Hillary Spencer from the 1800s when he was talking about welfare in England?
	Oh, Herbert Spencer.
	Herbert Spencer.
	Herbert Spencer.
	Yes.
	Well, when we subsidize the procreation of incompetence, we are doing nothing more than rearing up an army of enemies for our own children.
	No truer word said.
	We are rearing up an army of enemies for our own children.
	You've got children.
	You pay taxes.
	I've got children.
	I pay taxes.
	These people don't pay taxes.
	These people just eat at your and my expense.
	And if we don't foot the bill, we are charged with tax evasion and we go to a bank house.
	So let's see.
	Of course, more than two dozen states have sued the Trump administration because these 42 million people, they don't want them going on the rampage and breaking down the doors to Walmart and Kroger.
	So we'll just have to see about that.
	Now, Mr. Kersey, you have something.
	Do you have anything to add on the whole question of SNAP?
	I believe, as I said, the main thing we've already done with SNAP is I would encourage all of our listeners to check out the latest view from the right that Kevin Dean and I did.
	It's the day the EBT card runs out.
	Give us the highlights.
	Well, the highlights are Cornell did a study back in 2009.
	It stated that half of U.S. children and most black children will use food stamps.
	Will or do?
	2009.
	They will.
	But this is in 2009.
	This is what they stated.
	Almost half of American children, including 90% of black children and 90% of children who spend their childhoods in the single-parent household will eat meals paid for by food stamps at some point while growing up.
	Now, this is in 2009.
	Another amazing stat was from the Census Bureau in, this came out in 2023, and it showed that for SNAP beneficiaries, I hate the word beneficiaries as if this is a benefit.
	This is an entitlement.
	This is what Chris Caldwell pointed out in his book, The Age of Entitlements.
	This is basically, we're paying for peace.
	Well, see, I don't, I don't, well, a lot of people look at it that way.
	I don't think that's true.
	Just go ahead and call them moochers if you like.
	But all of this stuff has been gradual.
	And there are all these free school lunches, free school breakfasts.
	Yeah.
	Since when?
	You're around, by the way.
	You're around now in some municipalities and school districts so that kids have food insecurity.
	Where does this term food insecurity come from?
	You have to provide for your children, for your family, for your wife.
	According to this analysis that came out in November 2023, of non-Hispanic black children, 45% received SNAP benefits compared to 28% of Hispanic children, 12% of white children, 6% of Asian children, and 21% of non-Hispanic kids of other races.
	So you're talking about one in every two black kids that you see across the country.
	They're on SNAP.
	And the only other really interesting stat to point out, because again, there is a very big racial element to this, because if you talk about per capita, Pew Research came out with a story.
	This was in 2023.
	Now, we saw during COVID, of course, SNAP benefits increased dramatically, especially in the early parts of the COVID lockdown.
	But they broke out the data for users.
	And white people were 39.8% of the recipients.
	You'd expect that in a majority white country that it would, you know, it's actually far less what white people are using versus the percentage of the population.
	Blacks represented 27% of SNAP users and Hispanics represented 27% of users.
	Foreign-born, however, represented 12% of those users.
	And you're just like, wait a second, what?
	And last week, mind you, a lot of those changes that Trump came into office and they did right away went into effect.
	And there was a story that I'll just tell briefly because it's one of the ones we were going to talk about.
	So many of these white cities across the country are just being inundated with Afghanis, with Atreans, with Ethiopians, Somalis.
	One of those cities is Omaha, Nebraska.
	And I just saw this story on Twitter.
	I just wanted to talk about it really quickly.
	The headline was, they have kids.
	African Immigrant Family Services helps local refugees navigate snap cuts.
	Right.
	On Monday, I guess it was middle of this past month, the new requirements removed refugees and people granted asylum from the federal program from SNAP.
	So you have to ask yourself, gosh, how many of these asylees were getting?
	How many of these immigrants?
	How many of these people are getting food stamps?
	Well, we learned that African Immigrant Family Services in Omaha, Nebraska says that more than 90% of the families they help rely on SNAP benefits.
	And that means that, you know, you're talking about 70, you're talking about 7,000 refugees that have come to Omaha, Nebraska in the past few years, African refugees.
	90% of those people were getting food stamps.
	Well, Mr. Kersey, it's called the American Dream.
	Version 2.0.
	Well, that's why I'm wide awake and I'm thinking this American dream needs to be retired for good.
	It's become the American nightmare for us.
	Well, let's see.
	Let's move on to Mr. Mamdani, who apparently got messages in the subway in all of these obscure languages saying go out and vote.
	I wouldn't be surprised if they're written in Swahili or whatever it is, or Urdu, that they say vote for Mamdani.
	And none of us know.
	But the people who read Urdu do.
	In any case, if he wins in November, he has vowed to push sweeping reforms, including a $30 minimum wage, state-operated grocery stores, and new taxes targeting a affluent and predominantly white neighborhood.
	He was quite explicit about that.
	He is, of course, a Muslim running as a socialist.
	And real estate mogul Grant Cardone claims that the Mamdani policies, such as strict rent control, would gut New York City by driving away investments leading to an economic collapse and mass exodus.
	He cites $14 billion in lost investments and says 177,000 residents have already left because of the prospect of Mom Dani coming in.
	Now, in a 2013 interview, this is a little old now, his mother said he is, quote, not an American at all.
	Well, maybe since then, he's just become an absolute red-blooded American.
	And she says he identifies more as Uganda and India.
	In the meantime, Florida government Rod DeSantis has offered a $5,000 recruitment bonus to NYPD officers fleeing what he calls a mayor who hates them.
	And as you'll recall, Mr. Momdani has said he wants to defund the police.
	Although later he's kind of backtrapped on that, backtracked on that.
	I think he's decided the city needs a little bit of a police force after all.
	So who's going to vote for him?
	Well, this is quite interesting.
	This is like people who are on food stamps.
	Foreign-born voters are going to vote 62% for Mom Dani, 24% for Andrew Cuomo, and 12% Curtis Lee.
	62% for this Hindu Uganda.
	No, I'm sorry, not Hindu, Muslim Uganda.
	And among American voters, Cuomo leads with 40%, followed by Mamdani at 31%, Sliwa at 25%.
	But because there are so many foreigners in what used to be a wonderful American city, Mamdani has got the citywide age, 43%, while Cuomo Trail is at 32%, and Sliwa at 19%.
	All these foreign-born.
	I wonder how many of them are citizens.
	How can so many of them be citizens already?
	Mr. Taylor.
	I know you were born in Japan.
	Do you remember the first time you went to New York City?
	The first time.
	Yeah, I do.
	I remember very well.
	Why?
	I was wondering what year it was.
	That would have been in 1968, believe it or not.
	So in 1970, in 1970, according to the great replacement piece that Kevin and I did for Am Rand on New York City, he was 77% white.
	Well, I do not recall it being particularly overwhelmed by non-whites, but I wasn't paying that much attention in those days.
	And this was in Manhattan.
	Now, I do have a surprising story to tell about Manhattan in 1968.
	I made a phone call in a telephone booth.
	That's back in the days when you had to do that.
	People didn't have portable telephones.
	And I left my wallet in the telephone booth.
	In Manhattan.
	The very next day it was gotten back to me.
	Believe it or not.
	Yeah, those were different times.
	I mean, I suppose it could still happen.
	But, okay, let's move on to Britain, where Nigel Farage of the Reform Party has likened masked Muslim protesters marching through the streets of East London to a foreign invading army.
	The reform leader today, well, this was written a couple of days ago, condemned the scenes of balaclava-clad men who declared they were uniting while they chanted messages in Arabic.
	These demonstrations in Tower Hamlets, which came after police banned a planned Reform Party protest.
	In other words, white people can't demonstrate in this area.
	And the idea is they were going to reclaim the area.
	But the Arabs, the Muslims, who don't give a darn about getting a permit, they came tearing out to demonstrate.
	And the Reform Party leader, Nigel Farage, says some of the most terrifying things I've ever seen.
	Many of the young men dressed in black, hoods up, faces covered, roamed the streets waving Bangladesh and Palestine flags where white people had originally intended to march.
	And before the march, there was a fellow out there selling Balaclavas for five pounds each to his Muslim brothers.
	He said protesters should cover their faces to avoid being identified.
	He says, no face, no case.
	Well, they learn the ins and outs of the criminal system very quickly, don't they?
	And so all of these masked men were chanting, we will honor our martyrs.
	Allahu Akbar, Zionist scum, off our streets.
	I think by Zionist scum, they probably mean any white man.
	And during the press conference, Mr. Farage also responded to the furious backlash against one of his MPs, Sarah Pochin.
	She had complained there were too many black and Asian people in television and advertisements.
	But before we leave Farage and this question of all these masked Muslims roaring through the streets in a way that he thought looked like an invading army, when is this guy going to say there's only one solution?
	Remigration.
	They've all got to go.
	Farage is terrified of the word remigration.
	And he's also terrified of the idea of Britain being a white country.
	Now, he sees it all, and if he says this was the most terrifying thing he ever saw and it looked like a foreign invasion, why doesn't he understand?
	Invaders have to be hurled back.
	That's what you do to invaders.
	Anyway, maybe he will come around.
	And those who opened the gates have to be hurled back with them and never franchise again to ensure that invaders have access to said nation.
	Well, I think by the time we are in the business of hurling them back, the people who open the gates will be pretty much impotent.
	But in any case, this MP, their former MP, she had complained that there were too many black and Asian people in television advertisements.
	What do you know?
	It is astonishing.
	You see clips of advertising all around the white world, and they just love black people.
	Any kind of brown, non-white person, all these mixed-race.
	It's not just the United States, it's everywhere.
	Now, the party leader said Ms. Pochin's wording was wrong, ugly, and phrased poorly.
	But he refused to say her comments were racist.
	I wonder, what's the big deal about racist?
	I guess he's so terrified of racist.
	He doesn't want to entirely throw to the dogs.
	So he doesn't want to call her racist, but it was wrong and ugly and phrased poorly.
	These remarks were aired on Talk TV in response to a view who complained about all this modern-day advertising.
	She said, it's absolutely right.
	It drives me mad when I see adverts full of black people, full of Asian people.
	And health secretary, that's of the labor government, West Treating, said this was a disgrace, called her remarks racist, and, alas, Ms. Pochin apologized, admitting her comments were phrased poorly.
	However, later on, she came back with the data, and she said, a study by Channel 4 found that black people were featured in more than half of advertisements, more than half in 2022, despite the fact that they make up 4% of the population of England.
	Now, there's a statistic for you to conjure with.
	Here back in the United States, black people continue to rave, Trump or no Trump.
	An associate dean at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has called President Donald Trump a racist, and he co-authored an academic paper suggesting that the American system, the American educational system, is inherently violent towards black students.
	You know, you wonder what's worse.
	A guy like this, he's an assistant dean.
	He was appointed probably by white people, and he's deaning away.
	He's teaching our students.
	And he probably actually believes this.
	What's the worst aspect of this in any case?
	His name is Percival Matthews, and he's Associate Dean and Special Advisor for Access and Community.
	Oh boy, what a nice way to build community, because his job is to recognize the importance of advancing UW-Madison's institutional efforts to create a warming, a welcoming community.
	Well, white people are clearly not welcoming.
	He says that black students are routinely shut out of advanced math courses despite meeting the standards, while privileged white children are tracked into advanced courses despite failing to meet those standards.
	Where's this guy get this idea?
	And he adds the system is inherently violent.
	But John Lucas, Assistant Vice Chancellor for Public Affairs and Institutional Communications at the university, says the University of Wisconsin-Madison supports free expression and doesn't comment on the personal social media accounts of students, faculty, or staff.
	Mr. Kersey, I think we can well imagine that the university would comment vociferously on observations on social media that you and I could invent that were perfectly sane and perfectly normal, but then the university would comment with great energy.
	Now, I was looking at this associate dean, and he's written papers, and he apparently is very interested in math education.
	And one of the titles of one of his papers caught my eye.
	It's called College Devent, sorry, College Developmental Math Students Knowledge of the Equal Sign.
	Now, college developmental math students, those are the people who are kind of behind when they get to college.
	Remedial.
	Yes, remedial math.
	Yes, yes.
	Much better word.
	Now, their knowledge of the equal sign.
	Now, didn't you learn about the equal sign?
	Didn't you understand the equal sign?
	Probably when you were in the second grade.
	I would even going back thinking about it.
	First grade?
	First grade.
	I think that's when we learn just basic arithmetic.
	Yes, one plus one equals two.
	Two equals two.
	And you've got people in college in remedial math, and there's something to write about how much they know or don't know about the equal sign.
	Wow.
	In any case, you can publish anything these days.
	Now, Mr. Kersey, you have this infuriating article about a reaction to is it not the statue, the first publicly erected statue in the entire United States of America to a woman, a heroic woman, no less.
	Well, I need to get to the bottom of that.
	We do know that it might not be that first statue, per se, but Hannah Dudson, yes, she was the first female in American history to have a statue erected to her.
	Well, she was or wasn't.
	She was, she was, but I'm not sure if this is that actual statue.
	Oh, I see, I see in New England.
	But this one is in New Hampshire, which correct me if I'm wrong, but I want to say New Hampshire is a 94% white state.
	It's absolutely.
	You're right.
	Yeah.
	Well, I just, so I decided to create a Google alert for her name just to see when things pop up because I just got done reading this book called Smashing Statues.
	And it's fascinating because you're learning how just amazing our country really was.
	And it won't take much to get back to that if we just are honest and white awake.
	Yeah, I'm going to start using that term, by the way.
	Yeah, that's good.
	White awake.
	Be sure to make it not sound like white awake.
	White awake.
	White awake.
	Well, so the Hannah Dudson Memorial Historic Site, located in Boscoin, New Hampshire, was erected in 1874 near the confluence of the Kanticook and Merrimack Rivers.
	I'm sure I'm butchering those names, but I don't really care about the Mary Indian tribes that they're named after in honor of them because look what they're trying to do to dishonor our heroes and heroes.
	But it's not the Indian tribes you're doing.
	No, it's not.
	It's not, as we're going to learn.
	That's the pitiful part of it.
	David Nagel has always passed the looming statue of Hannah Dudson at the junction of the Kanticook and Merrimack Rivers.
	Whenever he went cycling in Boscoin, one day he decided to read the sign in front of it and he couldn't believe what he learned.
	Now, just real quick, David Nagel is a white man.
	I kind of went into shock when I saw it, adding that he did background research and spoke to historians after his discovery.
	The more I learned, the worse it got, he said.
	Nagel is a Republican state representative from Gilmanton, and he recently filed a legislative request to remove the statue.
	Attempts to change the park's name, the Hannah Dudson Memorial Historic Site, or install new signage to reflect a more accurate accounting of what happened at the spot were championed a few years ago, but nothing came of it, Nagel said.
	That was, of course, during the brouaha surrounding the fentanyl overdose of george floyd in minnesota quote if we're not going to go in that direction make a monument memorial that's more healing healthy and acknowledging the sins of the past perhaps on both sides of this equation then i really think that it needs to go well well mr kersey uh i i think some of your listeners probably don't know what that statue depicts We're going to get to that here.
	Okay.
	Hannah Dudson, based on historic accounts, she was.
	Isn't it Dustin?
	Isn't it Dustin?
	Yeah.
	Dustin, yes.
	Anna Dustin.
	Yes.
	Yes.
	From Haverhill, Massachusetts.
	She was kidnapped in 1697 by the Abenaki people during King William's War, one battle in a series of conflicts between English colonialists, the French in Canada, and Native Americans.
	And you guys should do all you can, by the way, to learn about this war and King Philip's War, because this is where the American identity was forged.
	Dustin was captured with her daughter, Mary Neff, and Dustin's nephew, who was killed shortly afterward.
	There are multiple accounts of what happened.
	The baby, it was told by Cotton Mather at the time that he was smashed into a tree, a very young little white boy.
	The group traveled north for two weeks before being handed off to another Indian family that consisted of two men, three women, and seven children.
	With that family was another captive, 14-year-old Samuel Leonardson from Worcestershire, and who was kidnapped a year and a half earlier.
	When the family went to bed one night, Dustin, Neff, and Leonardson slayed, killed most of the family with Tom Hawks, cutting off the scalps of the 10 members, including six children.
	And she had those scalps because she was actually awarded a monetary prize for doing this, Mr. Taylor.
	Dear me.
	Her story was memorialized by the Puritan minister, the aforementioned Cotton Mather, between 1697 and 1702, praising Dustin for her heroism and demonizing the Indians.
	Yes, we should celebrate the people who kidnapped her and held these other white people in captivity, I guess.
	Championed the official narrative, including that her baby died at the hands of the Abenaki people.
	Over the decades, historians have questioned the accuracy of the account, partly because of Mather's eagerness to justify violence against Native Americans.
	Again, had they been successful and they just killed Dustin, we wouldn't know who she was.
	So I guess that's what Nagel and all these people want who are questioning the official narrative.
	The tale gained prominence in the 1820s when colonialists expanded to the West in pursuit of their perceived manifest destiny.
	And what I'm saying, by the way, ladies and gentlemen, I'm reading the story.
	This is an actual news story in a paper up in New Hampshire.
	A 94% state, mind you.
	Biographies, magazines, and children books were written, and even a mountain was dedicated to her.
	In 1874, the 20-foot-foot-tall monument of Dustin was erected in Boscoin, one of the first and oldest statues of a woman in the United States.
	So yes, this actually is, Mr. Taylor, to answer your question.
	This is that statue.
	This is the first statue to a woman ever erected in American history.
	Wasn't it, doesn't it say one of the first and oldest?
	It says one of the first and oldest, but in every other account that I've read, it makes it clear this was the first statue.
	Okay.
	So, including in that book, Smashing Statues by a lesbian academic.
	Another statue in her hometown, Haverhill, was put up in 1902.
	Nagel visited the statue on Thursday afternoon, looking up to see a woman in a flowy, flowy gown reminiscent of the Statue of Liberty or Lady Columbia.
	In her right hand, she clutches the scalps of the Native Americans she killed.
	Weathered with time, Dustin's nose has broken off and her features have become worn.
	One of the statues, it must be the one in Haverhill, someone took a shotgun to and shot off her face.
	And they also removed the hatchet that she had.
	They're both great statues.
	The representative who's originally from New York and moved to New Hampshire 38 years ago said he has worked closely with, I hate this term, Native American Indian people and historians around the state.
	His wife is a board member at the Mount Carasarge Indian Museum in Warner.
	This guy sounds like a winner.
	As a professional doctor, he worked with the Indian Health Service for years and tried to create better access to health care for Amera Indians in the state.
	Quote, I'm not native myself, obviously, but if I didn't have that background of working with groups, exploring their sensitivities, things like that, I don't know that I would have that it would have hit me as hard.
	I just found this monument incredibly insulting.
	God, what a loss.
	A national movement has been brewing for years to remove or rename statues and monuments that memorialize controversial figures from the past, but Nagel isn't in the camp to do away with every mention of Columbus or remove every head from Mount Rushmore.
	He said he believes they played a more significant role in the country's history.
	Dustin doesn't serve the same historical purpose, he said.
	Her story was revived over 100 years after a capture during a time when English colonists were taking over Native American land.
	I think we need to take people in their whole historical context.
	And I think her only historical context was this one action.
	Yes, her story was told all throughout the 18th century.
	This is one of the reasons why I believe you said it best when we were talking about how in the colonial times, I believe every man who went to church had to have a gun on him out of fear of a Indian raid, correct?
	That's right.
	There's a very interesting oil painting of that very phenomenon.
	I can't remember the artist, but here are people walking to church.
	There may be half a dozen people in the painting, and two of the men are carrying bundle buses, just in case.
	No, that's, I mean, this is just such an incredible story because this is an individual that children should be learning about.
	We shouldn't be ashamed of what our ancestors did to carve out an incredible nation out of the vast wilderness of America and the various Amera Indian tribes we encountered along the way who were very bellicose in trying to stymie said progress.
	And the Dustin statue is one that we have to defend.
	Interesting.
	Yep.
	Yep, yep.
	Certainly true.
	Well, let's see a different story here.
	Renters across much of the United States have enjoyed easing prices and in some cases, months of free rent as an incentive to move in.
	This tenant-friendly environment is poised to extend deep into next year.
	And this has to do with the fact that President Trump is cracking down on immigration and is booting illegals.
	Vice President J.D. Vance said, why has housing leveled up?
	I believe the main driver is you've had negative net migration for the first time in 60 years.
	Under former President Joe Biden, the nation's foreign-born population grew by an unprecedented nearly 7 million in four years.
	Yes, and presumably they need places to stay.
	They're not all living in tents or in hotels.
	Meanwhile, in the first six months, Trump administration, the foreign-born population has dropped by 2.2 million, about 1.6 million of whom were illegal aliens.
	You know, this has been a real campaign cry, not just in New York City with Mandami, who is going to make sure that housing is more affordable, all around the country.
	Here where I live, the Bayer election is coming up.
	People talk about affordable housing.
	We need affordable housing.
	Well, just sit back and relax and don't get in the way of ICE, and there will be affordable housing, especially for the less well-off folks.
	Just relax.
	Affordable housing is on its way.
	Last year, during a congressional hearing, the Center of Immigration Studies Director of Research, Stephen Camerata.
	Now, Mr. Kersey, I know you share my deep admiration for Stephen Camerata.
	He is, I think, one of the best researchers we've got, certainly on the subject of immigration.
	If that guy sifts the numbers and arrives at a figure, you can note that that is about the best figure available.
	Folks, Stephen Camerata, a really trustworthy researcher, he told Congress that a five percentage point increase in the recent immigrant share of a metro area's population is associated with a 12% increase in the average U.S.-born household's rent relative to their income.
	Just 5% more recent immigrants in a metro area and American-born people have a 12% increase in their household rent relative to income.
	It's simple mathematics.
	And let the mathematics work themselves out as more and more of these people self-deport and the ones who don't self-deport are booted.
	Meanwhile, in Memphis, Tennessee, law enforcement officers have made more than 1,700 arrests in just the month since the Trump administration began sending federal officials to this notoriously crime-prone city.
	People arrested for homicide, drugs, gun charges, and sex offenses.
	There were 126 known gang members locked up.
	Seven dozen missing children were located, and 293 firearms seized as part of the Department of Justice effort.
	Attorney General Pam Bundy thanked Memphis' Democratic leadership for its cooperation.
	Memphis had the highest violent crime rate in the country in 2024, and a city dashboard reflected an improvement, showing that since September, serious crime in Memphis has dropped 46%.
	Now, the federal presence, including the National Guard, will remain in Memphis for now, and there is no set end date.
	Now, this is really quite remarkable.
	Serious crime down 46%.
	All it takes is somebody serious about getting these people off the street.
	Now, apparently, Pam Bondi thanked the Memphis Democrat leadership for its cooperation, but I believe you have a story that reflects a slightly more nuanced view on how this federal presence is being seen by the city of Memphis.
	Yeah, before we get to that, there's a Wall Street Journal article.
	It was on the actual cover of the Wall Street Journal yesterday, Mr. Taylor.
	And there's this incredible anecdote about this immigrant from Yemen who had stickers on their family-owned convenience store warning customers, no firearms, no ski masks at the convenience store they own in Memphis.
	A manager showed a war.
	A Wall Street Journal reporter was shown security footage of groups of men firing each other in his parking lot.
	They were black men.
	Another clip showed his clerk, a relative, cowering behind the counter as gunfire erupted outside.
	A shop owner next door was shot to death last year in daylight.
	This is in 64% Black Memphis, Tennessee.
	The manager whose family came to the U.S. from Yemen years ago said he had considered returning to that country because Memphis felt dangerous.
	So Memphis was more dangerous than Yemen.
	Since the federal surge, however, he notices customers have stopped bringing handguns into his store and he doesn't hear shootings at night.
	He said the past few weeks are the safest he has ever felt in Memphis.
	Again, a 64% black city.
	Now, the article that you were referring to in detailing Memphis, this is from about a week ago.
	Memphis residents are now worried about crime and the unleashed federal agents sent to address it.
	We obviously know what Stephen Miller said when he famously stated, you were unleashed.
	The gangbangers that you deal with, they think that they're ruthless.
	They have no idea how ruthless we are.
	What a great quote that is, by the way.
	The article would go on to say, that has residents worried they will be harassed in their own communities.
	11 Memphians in the majority black city told NBC News they are exchanging one fear, a crime in their city, for another, excess policing.
	Now, remember a couple years ago, Mr. Taylor, there was that story of police brutality in Memphis where a black criminal was beaten to death.
	And it turned out that the cops who did it, they were all black.
	And they were, some of them had actually gotten through because Memphis had lowered their standards during the DEI craze to admit more black individuals into the police force.
	Wilhelmina, Washington, said she is encouraged that crime is being addressed.
	Hey, I need to feel safer.
	I don't go out at night, period.
	Too much has happened.
	So if this can change that, then okay.
	But others feel as if they're just pawns in a political game they cannot win.
	Let's see one of the great quotes here.
	We just learned some more about crime.
	Eric Dunn, a Memphis native who is executive director of the Tennessee Bone Marrow Foundation, said he feels as though the African American communities in particular are being targeted.
	Most certainly the community is offended by what Miller said and how he said it as if we were in the 50s and the 60s and they were going to let the dogs out, spray us with water hoses.
	That's what this feels like more than them trying to cut down on crime.
	Oh boy.
	Yeah.
	It's just, it's just ridiculous because again, if you're going to deal with crime in Memphis, you can look at the statistics.
	That one gun violence foundation that you quoted from last week, they did a study on Memphis crime and you're talking about 95% of those who are arrested for homicide or non-fatal shootings are black.
	The gang members, they're all black.
	And again, this is a city that has a homicide and non-fatal clearance rate, non-fatal shooting clearance rate, below 50% for homicides and below 30% for non-fatal shootings.
	I mean, it is a war zone and it's a great city.
	I love Memphis.
	I'm not sure if you've ever been, but.
	I've been, yes.
	And it's just, it's extraordinary what can happen when, I mean, even Yemen, even immigrants from Yemen can feel safe to own a convenience store and not see people walk in with handguns to buy a coffee and a snack.
	Well, gee, is that really?
	That's pretty low bar.
	Pretty low bar, Mr. Kersey.
	We have a country that's so safe.
	Even people from war-torn Yemen run by rebel Houthis feel safer here than they do at home.
	Man, that is damning with faint praise, Mr. Kersey.
	Or they finally feel safer, but they felt like they had to leave before the feds.
	There's one more quote for you.
	The Reverend, the esteemed Reverend Jay Lawrence Tona, the president of the Black Clergy Collaborative of Memphis, he called the move federal overreach.
	Quote, I'm not denying Memphis has a crime problem, but this level of surge of federal law enforcement officials is overwhelming.
	It is unnecessary.
	It's immoral.
	The black mayor of the city said he understood his constituents' angst.
	With the surge of law enforcement officers in the city on top of our existing complement of officers, you can't help but to have a sense of anxiety.
	That anxiety is a born of history of black communities being ravaged by law enforcement stops for minor infractions that escalate into much more as the, as I mentioned, the aforementioned black guy, Tyree Nichols.
	He was brutally beaten by five black Memphis police officers, which the story doesn't mention, during a 2023 traffic stop.
	That happened.
	They had absorbed white supremacy, remember?
	That was a story at the time.
	They had absorbed the white supremacy of the policing profession.
	Yeah.
	I mean, again, just to finish out the story, a black East Memphis resident named Michael Connors said he was particularly concerned about harassment, though he hasn't interacted yet with the task force.
	He said that he is concerned about being stopped for no real reason and inspected by officers looking to make an arrest.
	That's not the way to make anything better.
	We know when we get pulled over, it can escalate into something bad really fast.
	Well, if you're very simple, obey the law.
	Please obey the law, you're going to be yes.
	This is just so sick.
	Anyway, moving to Ireland, this is quite a remarkable thing.
	Just a few days ago, there was an election in Ireland for the president of the Republic of Ireland.
	And a record number of people spoiled their vote.
	That is to say, they didn't really vote for anybody.
	And this was 13% of the ballot were deliberately spoiled.
	And many of the ballots had messages written on them.
	This is a big change from the 2018 presidential election when only 1.2% of the total vote were spoiled.
	This time, 13%.
	And many of the ballots, and you can see photographs of them, some of them said, she was only 10.
	Now, what would she was only 10 mean?
	That refers to a 10-year-old girl who was viciously, brutally raped by a 26-year-old Algerian outside an accommodation center for asylum seekers.
	Some of them said she was on a jog.
	Yet another message.
	That referred to the murder of a teacher, Ashling Murphy, an Irish woman who was murdered by an illegal immigrant.
	And then some of them wrote in a candidate, Maria Steen.
	Maria Steen, she was a conservative who opposes mass immigration.
	But the nomination process for candidates for president in Ireland is this obscure, weird thing in which incumbent parties can block any kind of outsider.
	It really favors establishment figures, and many, many people in Ireland thought they didn't have a legitimate choice.
	The winner, believe it or not, was someone named Catherine Connolly.
	And she says she calls for dialogue on diverse issues like migration.
	And she says she wants conversations to dismantle prejudice.
	She views immigrants as essential to Ireland's economy and to its society.
	Well, no wonder if that's the kind of candidate that's running, and all of them were basically cut from the same mold, these people are absolutely furious.
	And I'm glad to see all of this reaction and people making it very clear that the reason they're not voting for any of these useless candidates is because they want Ireland to stay Irish.
	Let's see.
	Oh, we are running out of time, Mr. Ferzy.
	We always seem to run out of time.
	I don't know.
	How can we avoid running out of time?
	Well, in any case, I believe that's it for this week.
	Ladies and gentlemen, we have certainly enjoyed this time we've spent with you.
	It's always an honor and a pleasure.
	And I'm sure Mr. Kerzee joins me in thanking you for your attention.
	And we both look forward eagerly to spending this time with you next week.
