Endless Hordes of Indians 00:09:15
	Good afternoon and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters episode 1342.
	I'm your host Harry, joined today by Brother Stelios.
	Hello, Brother Harry and Brother Luca.
	Afternoon, brother.
	Hello, brothers and sisters.
	That's dad to you.
	Oh.
	Yep.
	You can see he's trying to steal my style.
	Today we're going to be talking the sure to be a grand success EU-India trade deal, where we get hordes, endless hordes of Indians, and they get to give us endless hordes of Indians.
	Emphasis on the endless.
	Yes, there is an inexhaustible supply.
	We're going to be talking about the return of the most sinister agency in the US government.
	And that's not just the government itself.
	That's a very specific one.
	And Stellius is going to be taking us through the recent Spanish train disaster, which I've not actually heard anything about.
	It's very tragic.
	So talk about it.
	So a fun one today.
	And with that, bye, Islander.
	And now let's talk about the news.
	Thorough.
	Nice.
	Okay.
	So obviously, off the back of Trump's second term and all of the madness and unpredictability surrounding tariffs, right?
	Because every time another foreign country does anything, it seems to threaten a change in tariff rules from the American government.
	And it's brought a lot of unpredictability.
	And I think in particular as well, because of the ongoing tensions that have been created between America and Europe over Greenland as well, what's happened is that the EU have accelerated plans that they've been working on for many years now, but a trade deal, a free trade deal with India.
	And this has all been signed.
	It's been signed between both parties.
	It's not come into effect just yet.
	It has to get ratified and everything.
	But it's the EU, right?
	And if there's one thing we know about the EU, it's that if they want something to go through, they will make sure that it goes through.
	And if they don't want something to happen, well, you better not be one of the poor, unfortunate souls who's on the side of that.
	The third thing as well is if they want something to go through, they will especially make sure it goes through if it just means more foreigners in Europe.
	Oh, yes, if it's treacherous, they'll put double the effort into making sure that it happens.
	And it so often is.
	This also comes off the back as well of the Makoza deal that the EU were recently in the midst of making with many of the South American countries as well, which kicked up quite a riot in Brussels towards the end of last year where once again, you know, people looking out of their office spaces in Brussels would have seen tractors and shit all across the streets, you know,
	and the farmers protesting because they saw that that deal was going to undercut European farmers and their labour.
	Is that a figure of speech or were they actually spreading manure?
	It is both.
	It is both, yes.
	And so here we are.
	We have this new EU-India trade deal and I suppose we ought to talk about some of the raw numbers from it before we start talking about the other numbers that are even more upsetting.
	So India tariffs on 30% of goods traded with the EU are to fall to zero immediately.
	EU firms are going to save up to 4 billion Euros a year in duties.
	And it also says improved access for EU firms in financial and maritime services.
	And basically, it seems that 99.5% of all goods between them have had some sort of reduction of tariffs.
	So it is it is enormous.
	It is obviously a very, very comprehensive deal, and you can tell how many years have been worked on this.
	But from the other point of view, benefits for India, they're going to have 0% tariffs on 93% of their goods within seven years coming into Europe.
	And so what all of this amounts to is that the EU is going to, we're going to be sending India things like cars and wine.
	And in return, we're going to be getting textiles and base materials and jewelry and gems.
	But of course, we're also going to be getting endless numbers of foreigners because as with any trade deal that India seems to produce, it cannot exist without attacking.
	You have to bring the deal.
	Right.
	In.
	Yeah.
	It's like you've got all of the trade stuff and you've got the numbers of all the goods and everything.
	And then Modi just comes along with a stapler and just attaches a little addendum to it saying, also please import hundreds of millions of Indians.
	It is his main form of diplomacy.
	It is.
	Really, is I'm going to send 50 million Indians to your country.
	And this obviously creates a disastrous effect on us, not only because of the fact that we don't want these people here, but also because it means that any time that we the more that we intertwine ourselves with all of these foreign economies,
	using India as an example, it obviously means that if we decide to do anything slightly antagonistic towards India, or if we just decide, actually, we've had enough and we'd like you to take your Indians back, well, we've intertwined ourselves with their economies and they have more economic leverage over us.
	Well, this is the point of globalism.
	Yes.
	Is to make us so codependent on one another that you have to accept all of these extra things because you've essentially built yourself up a nice little fifth column in your own home through the free trade of peoples.
	Yes.
	I want to ask you if you know yet or if there is information yet about the number of people who are going to be brought.
	So is it endless or is it targeted specifically?
	Like saying, well, we need an X amount of nurses, Modi will provide.
	Or we need X amount of doctors Modi will provide.
	Well, the problem is that there's a very general term, which is high-skilled workers.
	We've heard all this before, right?
	We know exactly what that means.
	And also as well, even if that did hypothetically mean, you know, we get 100 Indians who are the most intelligent Indians in all of India.
	It doesn't stop there, does it?
	Because when they come in, they will want to bring their families over.
	They'll want to bring more Indians over.
	And it creates this compounding effect where whenever foreigners come into Europe, they always use it as a bridgehead for bringing in more foreigners from their own country.
	And so to some extent, and obviously, as we know, the EU and England as well is very lax about these sorts of things, right?
	The civil service and the people who are in charge of all these sorts of things and the visa applications, they're complicit or they're asleep at the wheel.
	But mostly it's complicity.
	And so we end up with a position as well where because of this trade deal, of course, we can't also forget the fact that India is one of Russia's key strategic allies.
	India is one of the world's biggest consumers for Russian crude oil, which makes up to 40% of its total imports and roughly 1.7 million barrels a day, which is quite a lot.
	And some estimates suggest that it's imported just under £125 billion worth of crude oil, second only to China since the war has begun.
	And so we're intertwining ourselves in the name of diversifying our trade and trying to uncouple ourselves from America.
	We're actually strengthening the economy of one of the key strategic allies that we've been fighting in the war in Ukraine in for several years.
	And so all of this seems to be just total madness, absolute comedy.
	Only no one's really laughing at it, are they?
	I mean, look at that.
	You're not, you know, nowhere close to cracking a chuckle, are you?
	I think I've forgotten how to laugh after all these years.
	I'll teach you later.
	Well, I'll give you some lessons.
	I'm an old dog.
	It won't work.
	Okay.
	I give you six months.
	I reckon I can do it in six months.
	Anyway.
	So we have here Ursula von d'Reyen speaking about it all.
	That sorry, are you taking the Peter Hitchens look?
	He isn't.
	See, he laughed.
	I broke already.
	He laughed.
	Okay, just a matter of seconds.
	Just the comparison to Peter Hitchens is not one that I was expecting.
	Thank God he had the same plans as well.
	Speaking of someone else who never laughs, let's listen to Ursula von dreyen.
	We've got the sound.
	Looks like happy there.
	Of course, she's doing something that hurts Europeans.
	Of course, she's happy.
	Audience, can you hear her, or is our television simply muted?
	Well.
	No, that's not coming through.
	All right.
	Apologies mogging us.
Indian Students' Mobility Scheme 00:10:51
	So we have here, this is a tweet from Piyosh Goyal, who is the Union Minister of Commerce and Industry.
	Yes, all right.
	What a name.
	It's a good name, isn't it?
	It's a strong name if ever I saw a strong Indian name.
	Yep.
	And basically, this means that, as I say, it's not just a freedom of movement of goods, it is, of course, people, because India always attaches free movement of people to its deals.
	We've seen this recently in Canada in the way that, you know, the number of Indians in Canada has just risen dramatically in a very, very short space of time.
	And so we have here an agreement of mobility with India, facilitating the movement of students, researchers, seasonal, and highly skilled workers.
	Do we really need students from India?
	Do we really need seasonal workers?
	Do we need Indian strawberry pickers coming in?
	Well, that's one of the main, I suppose, avenues to try and combat this legitimately, which is that if they felt inclined, I doubt they do, but if they felt inclined, unions across Europe could complain that this is going to be competition in the workforce.
	And they should.
	Because really that's going to depress wages, as this sort of stuff always does.
	Now you're not only fighting for wages with a globalized market in general, you've had even greater openings to one of the largest labor markets in the single largest labor market in the world.
	If he's talking about India, the amount of Indians that there are.
	And I'm going to be fair, there are plenty of intelligent and high-skilled Indians, but are they the ones that are going to be coming over?
	Why is Modi so eager, if it's about high-skilled workers, why is he so eager to send all of these talented individuals over to improve our countries rather than put them to work within the Indian labor force?
	There are many questions that you could open.
	I would expect that I've read a number of reports on India itself being a multi-state country, having interstate immigration problems where some of the better off, more prosperous states within India are experiencing troubles where a lot of people from the low the worse off states are trying to go from state to state and immigrate and put pressure in that way.
	So I would imagine this might be some kind of pressure release valve for him.
	Well, this state and our states aren't going to have to worry so much because a lot of the people from these states, which aren't doing as well, can just go to foreign countries.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	And also as well, as we say, it just gives India a form of global soft power because it's building up a diaspora all around the world.
	Absolutely.
	And so we get to the point as well, though, that this is the European Union.
	And the European Union, as far as I know, I've not really looked into it, is struggling with popularity a bit these days.
	Only these days.
	Only these days.
	We're in a position where there seems to be centre-right, you know, right-wing, whatever parties springing up all across Europe.
	The more liberal-minded, progressive view of Europe that these people insist on striving towards is going to change.
	I'm not suggesting that these new parties are going to change it half as dramatically as it needs to or as we want it to, but it will result in somewhat of a pivot, even if that pivot is to becoming more entrenched under America again.
	Because you can see here them trying to diversify, obviously, their economy to get away from the hegemony of America.
	But ultimately, we're in a position where it just seems that they will do absolutely anything.
	The EU are more than happy to ban political parties, they're more than happy to ban political opponents, they're more than happy to cover up waves and waves and years and years of endless crimes.
	And they will do anything, absolutely anything, apart from stop importing foreigners.
	Well, that's the interesting contradiction.
	There are lots of reports.
	Obviously, Europe is trying to, or at least the elites in Europe right now are trying to decouple themselves from America as a result of a lot of the belligerence that's been coming from America as well as their own personal disagreements with the Trump administration over there right now.
	But if you want to actually rise up and become a superpower, you don't just have to throw off the shackles of America and its bases and such.
	I've seen lots of reports of European countries within the EU starting to try and build up their own defensive capabilities.
	They're starting to try and get projects to be able to replace things like the stealth fighters and other armaments and technology that we have that we have to rely on America for so that it can stand on its own.
	But internally, if you want Europe and European countries to be strong on their own, you can't have these enormous fifth columns of foreign diasporas in them.
	You can't have it so that you are having to micromanage in the same way that America does and has had to ever since really the 1960s.
	We have to micromanage all of your internal affairs because race war is basically constantly on the verge of breaking out because of all of the internal racial and ethnic tensions within your countries.
	So this is directly counter to their stated goals of becoming a superpower.
	This is how you prevent yourself from becoming a superpower.
	And it just goes to show how thick-headed these Eurocrats are, that they're trying to decouple from America whilst also clinging desperately on to the multi-racial, multicultural attitudes that America kind of helped to put them on and that they adopted and took on wholesale.
	Yeah.
	And they show no signs of wavering from it either.
	You know, more and more it just feels like the peoples of Europe are just something akin to King Leo just shouting and yelling into a storm.
	But there's no effect to it because ultimately the storm is stronger.
	And I mean, obviously, I personally want it all to come crashing down because you can see the sorts of numbers put here by the Brussels signal, and they are truly startling.
	It goes on to make a point in the article saying the pre-existing trends show that Indian immigration to the EU is growing.
	And as an example, it says Indian nationals in Germany rose from some 86,000 in 2015 to about 280,000 in 2025, driven by skilled STEM roles, students, blue card schemes.
	Now obviously STEM, IT and students and many of the things that they prioritize being able to move about with this new mobility from the, so we already have those things Are you telling me that the most autistic nation on earth, Germany, does not have enough high-quality human capital to be able to fill its own STEM roles?
	Oh, apparently so.
	Or if maybe not that, it does seem, of course, that, and we know how this happens as well.
	We saw it in Silicon Valley and we see it around the West.
	As the Indians in particular, who are very ethnically nepotistic, you know, as they start obtaining roles in these systems, they outsource all of the work to other Indians as well.
	And, you know, it's a dangerous trajectory.
	Goes on to point out that by 2021, more than 600,000 Indian citizens were legally residing in the EU.
	And in 2022 alone, EU member states issued more than 180,000 first-resident permits to Indian nationals, making them one of the largest non-EU migrant groups.
	I remember also seeing in this mobility scheme there is a stipulation that for the Indian students who are coming to the United Kingdom, they will also be entitled to a one-year visa scheme after they graduate so that they can try and find work in Europe.
	So not get the degree, go back to India and presumably do something with those skills to better your own country.
	No, it is designed in such a way to encourage them to stay once they have come here, come to Europe.
	And on top of all of this, we have truly embarrassing speeches from von der Leyen here.
	If we've got the sound back, I'll play it.
	We do not have the sound.
	It sounds broken on our end.
	I hope it's not the same on your end.
	All right, friends.
	Well, fortunately, we've got something of a quote there.
	It says, from the earliest discovery by Indian astronomers to Indian mathematicians who shaped European Enlightenment.
	Sorry, I don't want to.
	No, no, no.
	And or modern voices like Rabindranath Tagori, his poetry speaks to us every day when India's national anthem is sung.
	Stelios, as a man who has, I'm led to believe, studied the Enlightenment and its people and its ideas, are you familiar with any big name Indian philosophers who contributed to the European Enlightenment?
	I mean, not to the.
	I don't know about the European Enlightenment.
	I know some from classical India.
	Yeah.
	Like, yeah.
	I don't remember about particular people being directly involved in the Enlightenment.
	It was a bit afterwards Schopenhauer was very much in love with the Vedas and Hinduism, generally speaking.
	I'm just going to speak on your behalf, calling out India, like astronomers and mathematicians.
	This is Greek erasure.
	Right here.
	This is Greek erasure.
	What you don't understand is Europe could not have managed the Enlightenment without India.
	I mean, it just makes sense.
	So it seems.
	So it seems, and so now there is obviously some, she goes on to point out.
	It's like, oh, well, you know, India and Europe have been connected for thousands of years.
	It's like, yeah, I mean, if we're going to talk about Alexander the Great, then sure, yeah, I get that.
	But I'm more interested in the cultural exchange of the colonial era myself, which is why I just wanted to say, if you're interested in a wonderful novel by Rudyard Kipling, I did an episode of Chronicles for the main website all about Kim, which is a fantastic adventure novel for young children and boys growing into adulthood.
Perfect Example of Ethnic Loyalty 00:04:01
	And it's a fantastic one as well, because in this, Kipling, basically, Kim is a young Irishman, right?
	He's the son of Irish parents, but he grows up on the streets of Lahore, surrounded by Indians and Indian identity, and the sun even blackens his skin, so he can basically pass for a native.
	But as soon as he becomes, as soon as he finds the white men again, as soon as he finds the English and the British, all of a sudden he's naturally, because of who he is inside, drawn to loyalty towards them and serving the British.
	And so it's a magnificent meditation all about identity and you know, loyalty and all these sorts of things, as well as being, you know, written with Kipling's signature eloquence.
	So if you'd like to hear me break that down, it's all there for you.
	More than von der Leyen, no, and the women who have put this wonderful deal together, there is also a man who has had something to do with it as well.
	And I don't like him either, actually.
	So we have here the EU Council president proudly displaying his overseas citizen of India card.
	Why should this man be permitted to hold such a position?
	Well, he was before this.
	He's really done very well for himself because despite having both Mozambique and Goa Indian ancestry, he also was able to be Prime Minister of Portugal for about a decade and was, I quote, Secretary General of their socialist party.
	And so has spent his entire political career basically subverting the Portuguese identity, you know, invoking more and more foreigners to come in because economics and da-da-da-da.
	But it and also, I will just say as well, was not born in India, but because of his ethnic ties, automatically has this piece of paper, which means that he can go and have permanent residency in India whenever he wants.
	Never chooses to do it, oddly enough.
	This is just a perfect example of what you were talking about there with this ethnic nepotism and this ethnic narcissism, which is that the experiment of the purely civic identity has completely failed.
	Yes.
	And this is a perfect example of how it has completely failed.
	You can take this man who was born outside of this country, raised in foreign countries' cultures around their people, and still holds deep personal affection to his homelands and wants to bring the people over from his homelands.
	Right.
	That's couldn't be clearer.
	Congratulations.
	Civic identity doesn't exist.
	And we're just supposed to sit here and pretend that there is no conflict of interests in this whatsoever.
	The people of Europe are supposed to look at this, look at the fact that this man just has an obvious loyalty to India, and then you get put in jail or, you know, or sentenced or getting door kicked down if you dare to suggest that you might have a similar sentiment for your own people here in Europe.
	And so the entire thing is a total farce.
	And we're in a position now where I have to agree with Morgoth, of course, as I usually do, which is that it's like the Greenland debacle saw a brief and rare occasion where the views of the European people aligned with the leaders and the leaders immediately felt compelled to rectify the situation by flooding Europe with Indians.
	Which seems to be the case.
	It seems to be the case.
	It's total civilizational suicide, as I say.
	It's not merely a matter of whatever the stipulations of this trade agreement are as well, because as the demographics shift more and more, giving Indians more cultural power in these European countries and throughout the rest of the West, it will only strengthen the hand of their motherland in negotiating these sorts of deals into the future with us as well.
Feeling Matters In EU's Future 00:03:40
	And so the sooner that the EU is frankly just, you know, collapses, and the sooner that these European nations can revert back to nation states, it's my own personal feeling, the stronger they'll feel a sense of actual ethnic identity again.
	And that has to be the rule book and the governing principle going forward for European nations because it's one that the rest of the old world plays by.
	And if you're not going to do it either, they are going to dominate us.
	All right.
	I'll just go through these rumble ransomware.
	I get the feeling like no matter what.
	All right.
	Technology is mogging us.
	Yeah, we're not going to go offline, are we?
	No, that's all right.
	Okay.
	Well, I just had a thought then, like, given that this is such Modi's go-to in every situation, I get the feeling like no matter where in life Modi ended up, no matter which station in life he ended up, this would still be his go-to thing that he would try and do in every business deal.
	Like, he could be a merchant in a big market, right?
	And you go over and you're like, oh, this is some lovely fabric here.
	Can I get this fabric?
	And he's like, yes, sir.
	I do your great deal, sir.
	And then you, you know, you hand over the money and he goes, I have extra for you, sir.
	You will be very happy with this.
	And then he tries to fob off like half a dozen of his cousins on you.
	And before you know it, you're there in your little single-bed, one-room apartment, you know, that's exhausted.
	Surrounded by Modi.
	Surrounded by Muslims.
	Wondering how you got here.
	Like, it's so just like that tactic.
	That sounds like it has radicalized you somewhat.
	I mean, it would not a situation that I would relish.
	All right.
	I'll go through these rumble ransom, seeing as we've got screens back.
	Ryan Rumble1993 says, once you let these people in, you won't get rid of them.
	I'm tired, boss.
	Yeah, me too, Ryan.
	Sigil Stone says, Europe has.
	Samson's Steam account is just popping up.
	I can't read it.
	Show us what disgusting games you've been playing, Samson.
	No, right.
	um they'll avoid europe due to an overabundance of their yeah there's some of these that i can't read guys You'll just have to accept that.
	That's a random name says, I suppose if the EU cannot be a superpower in their own right, they'll try and become a.
	Yeah, there's a lot of references to certain festivals I have in India.
	Also, I couldn't hear Ursula because when a woman speaks, I just tune out.
	That was quite funny.
	Yeah, it is.
	Yeah, you got us there.
	$10 from a name that I can't read.
	You'll have to forgive me.
	Saying, be honest, guys, didn't you think the Somalians were capable of winning the Oscars' best international feature?
	Then they go and release Ilhan Omar.
	He just happened to be sitting in front of...
	I'm not familiar with this, but it wouldn't surprise me if they've made a film.
	Yeah.
	I'm 100%.
	That whole thing was a joke, but I don't know what it's referenced to.
	I'm not sure either.
	I just saw another one that apparently is a Mogania film now as well.
	So I don't know what to believe anymore.
	One could say that the EU cannot be redeemed.
	He makes a good point.
	And Sigil Stone for $2, thank you says, what if the Enlightenment they speak of doesn't refer to an event that happened, but to the new Enlightenment that seeks to annihilate Europeans?
	Well, maybe.
	Time will tell, won't it?
	I know she's trying to like bow down and kneel before Modi and be really nice and refer to him.
	It's very cringe.
	Can I have the mouse, please?
Government Permitted Penetration 00:05:52
	But also, like, come on, man.
	Even when I've heard the arguments of astronomy and mathematicians influencing Europe and everything, it's like, all the arguments I've ever heard about that have been, like, Arabs carrying that over here, not Indians.
	So it's so strange to just be like, we just make stuff up now.
	Like, nothing is real.
	History doesn't exist.
	Nothing that you can read, but you can be trusted.
	It's all just made up.
	We'll say whatever we need to in that very moment.
	And you just got to deal with it.
	Anyway.
	What?
	Audio, let's see if we can hear the silky tones of Uncle Jared.
	Holly, the Cincinnati woman.
	We can.
	Yay.
	How delightful.
	I'm going to take that image off the screen because it's kind of disturbing to look at.
	There we go.
	That's better.
	He looks so angry.
	Jared, that's every reason to.
	Calm down, Jared, please.
	Anyway.
	So in the past couple of years, there's been a lot of attention brought on to an agency within the US government, specifically the Department of Justice, that not many people knew about.
	And that was entirely on purpose.
	This agency was intended from the start to operate in the shadows and behave with a certain level of confidentiality to the point where its own agents could be fined up to $1,000, amongst other punishments, if they were to ever reveal without authorization exactly what they were doing.
	This is the Community Relations Service, otherwise known as America's Peacemakers.
	And in those past two years, there has been more and more spoken about and revealed about them.
	And people started talking about them.
	Mainly, I saw this around mid-last year.
	I remember Roareg Nationalist came on to do a segment on them because people were starting to realize just how sinister the activities the Community Relations Service, the CRS, got up to were.
	So for some context here, there's this video by American Renaissance saying, do the DOJ keep victims quiet about black crime, the truth about community relations service?
	I won't play any of this, but I have drawn out some information from this and also from this official history of them called America's Peacemakers, Community Relations Service and Civil Rights, written by Bertram Levin, a man who had been in the organization for about 25 years, and Grand Lum, I think I might be pronouncing his name incorrectly there, who was a director of the organization for about five years,
	giving the mission statement and filling in a lot of the details on what exactly they do, whilst also keeping a lot still in the shadows.
	It's one of those books that operates on Orwellian double speak and has a certain moral arrogance to it, where the authors automatically presume that what they are pursuing is truth and justice, despite the fact that within the first few pages, you already get a number of hoaxes spouted back at you.
	And that includes things like the idea that Trayvon Martin and the shooting of Trayvon Martin was completely unjustified and that George Zimmerman, his shooter, had gone out to try and provoke a confrontation rather than shot in self-defense.
	You have things like the very fine people hoax that Donald Trump supposedly said about the white supremacists at Charlottesville, which anybody who can go back and watch the footage of what Donald Trump actually said knows is a lie.
	The book is absolutely full to the brim with incidents like this.
	It was written around the second edition, was written around the time of the George Floyd riots, and as such, again, was promoting this idea that George Floyd had been unnecessarily murdered by Derek Chauvin rather than simply overdosed whilst in police custody.
	But here's some more information about them that I got from this book and from this video.
	So they started in 1964 and were authorized and constituted under Title 10 of the Civil Rights Act.
	It was one of those titles that wasn't really spoken about much at the time because the actual act was not promoted as having the ability to start this large shadowy agency in the government to manipulate people's behaviors and to essentially astroturf protests, as I'll get on to.
	They work discreetly to mediate disputes and employees again can be fined about $1,000 for revealing exactly what they do.
	They have reports, yearly reports, which are incredibly difficult to track down if you're not in the US government.
	I think you are supposed to be able to access these, but if you are a civilian, you can't.
	Their track record includes behaving in such ways as acting immediately after 9-11, which is something they talk about in this book, to defuse tensions, community tensions, that could lead to hate crimes against Muslims and people of Middle Eastern descent.
	And many of the employees come from civil rights backgrounds.
	The second director himself said that the organization was the extension of civil rights activism into the government.
	So this is a government-permitted penetration of civil rights activism and civil rights morality into the US government as reconstituted by the Civil Rights Act, which has been discussed many times before, essentially overwrites a large section of the Constitution of the United States of America.
Manufacturing Protests 00:09:51
	And of course, it's all taxpayer funded.
	Something interesting was that people have been speaking about this for a little bit longer than I realized initially, but it never made all that much leeway in public discourse.
	There's this article all the way back from 2013 by the Daily Mail of all places talking about how taxpayers paid for Justice Department units to support protests after killing of Trayvon Martin.
	Now, they say here in this article that documents published online on the Wednesday prior to this article being released by a conservative watchdog group show that the Community Relations Service, an arm of the U.S. Justice Department, spent taxpayer dollars to help organize and implement plans for the initial string of rallies in Sanford, Florida, following the 2012 shooting, death of Trayvon Martin.
	The DOJ's Community Relations Service first entered the Trayvon Martin controversy March 25th and 27th, 2012, when, according to the documents, his personnel were deployed to Sanford, Florida to work marches, demonstrations, and rallies related to the shooting and death of an African-American teen by a neighborhood watch captain.
	Days later, from March 30th through to the 1st of April, the agency reported that it quote provided support for protest deployment in Florida.
	Now, that's all very interesting because, as well, there's more information here in this book on that very incident within Sanford, Florida, and their own involvement in the protests that went on there.
	So, they say for this event and many other rallies and protests in Sanford, a CRS team member was assigned to train protest groups in self-marshalling, which helps the group stay safe while it protests.
	Self-marshalling involves designating and training individuals to be chaperons for the group and to be responsible for keeping the group together, remaining alert to individuals who might be using the event to cause violence or trouble and learning steps to take in case of medical and other emergencies.
	The goal of such training is to keep everyone safe and to prevent protests from escalating into dangerous situations and to ensure that free speech remains prevented.
	They also make mention here that one of the big differences with these particular protests, the Trayvon Martin protests, was that the city of Sanford invited the protesters in.
	The second the shooting happened and people started to talk about it online, as detailed here and in this article, the government officials, the local government officials, both invited the protesters in and then immediately got in touch with this shadowy spook organization within the DOJ to make sure that these protesters that they invited in did not cause too much trouble and only protested peacefully.
	So, what they essentially did was manufacture these protests to go as smoothly as possible to ensure that it looked as good to the media as possible, giving all of these protests a big boost of legitimacy because it made them look very good on the national and international stage.
	And given that the killing of Trayvon Martin, the shooting of him, and his acquittal in court is seen as the inciting incident for the start of the Black Lives Matter movement, later growing into Black Lives Matter, there is a pretty decent case to be made with the evidence that this astro-turfing of the protests, as supported by the US government and local government officials,
	is one of the things that led to Black Lives Matter starting in the first place, making it even more of an astroturfed organization than it already was come around 2020.
	The other things that it did was it helped to train activist groups in how to challenge FCC licenses of radio and TV stations.
	They use this to force stations to hire minorities and produce more minority programming.
	Because again, while even with a book of this length, it can be a little bit difficult to ascertain exactly what the CRS does in every situation.
	Discussions over the past year or two have focused on the reactive side of the CRS.
	This idea that they are supposed to show up when tensions have already inflamed and make sure that they don't escalate any further into violence by mediating both sides, which some may say is a very noble endeavor.
	You know, you don't want these things to blow up into riots, you don't want these things to turn into violence where people could die unnecessarily.
	But also, they are a proactive organization.
	They do things like this, where they train activists, local activists, to challenge FCC licenses.
	They expanded following 2009 under the first year of Obama, they expanded their remit with the 2009 hate crime legislation to not only cover racial and religious issues, but to cover gay rights, LGBT activism, and issues related to that.
	And as such, in 2014, as well as in the chronology here of things that they got involved in, they said that following the shooting of Michael Brown by police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, they convened dialogue sessions, established a coalition, and provided on-site conciliation.
	But they also say here they released a video, law enforcement and the transgender community, the first federal agency video of its kind, and created a training program.
	So they are an one-size-fits-all, one-stop shop for civil rights activism.
	There goes my bookmark.
	For civil rights activism being promoted and pushed by the federal government of the United States and teaching other departments within the federal government how to be better allies and more progressive, more left-wing in their politics.
	Because as they say in the introduction, this is one of the Orwellian things about it.
	They want to promote themselves as being neutral.
	Neutral actors, a neutral third party that can step into any situation and mediate it and get to a conflict resolution point that leaves everybody happy and causes the least damage.
	But they are also, whilst simultaneously calling themselves neutral, a proactive force for social equity, social justice.
	They speak in the introduction about how one of the things that they wanted to do was turn outcome...
	Sorry, let me find a little bit here at the beginning.
	It must have been very difficult for them all to be the resistance while having access to the United States Treasury.
	Millions of dollars of government money, yes.
	About $24 million per year.
	Also, I'm sure several NGOs are being funded by all sorts of people whose rhetoric they claim to do.
	So obviously it was started under Lyndon Johnson, but they say here that their mission remit was essentially stated by Lyndon Johnson on the night of June 4th, 1965, when he spoke to the nation by radio from Howard University, concluding by pronouncing a new civil rights goal.
	And this is the thing that people don't really talk about very much with the Civil Rights Act in 1964, because on paper, the Civil Rights Act just aims to even out all of the legal standards when it comes to people of different races and religious backgrounds.
	So they want to say it was just this leveling out of the legal process, but no, there was a definite ideological goal attached to it, which is one of the reasons that with organizations like the CRS, it essentially changed the entire way the US government behaved towards issues that involved racial, ethnic, religious, and now sexual conflicts.
	Johnson said, freedom is not enough.
	You do not wipe away the scars of centuries by saying, now you are free to go where you want, do as you desire, and choose the leaders you please.
	It is not enough just to open the gates of opportunity.
	All of our citizens must have the ability to walk through those gates.
	This is the next and more profound stage of the battle for civil rights.
	We seek not just freedom, but opportunity, not just legal equity, but human ability, not just equality as a right and a theory, but equality as a fact and as a result.
	And while there was mention of opportunity there, there has often been this discussion of the difference between equality of opportunity and equality of outcome.
	What he is laying out there is a goal of equality of outcome.
	Yes, and this is part and parcel of what equity is in practice.
	Because what this organization was constituted to manufacture.
	Exactly.
	And one thing to say here, which I find very eye-opening, is that frequently these people will pay lip service to the distinction between equality of opportunity and equality of outcome.
	And as concepts, they are distinct, but they're doing a sneaky trick from the back door, if you know what I mean.
	They are saying that the criterion for whether equal opportunities were present is equality of outcome.
	So if you have unequal outcome, they will straightforwardly move to say therefore there weren't equal opportunities.
	That's the logic.
	Thereby erasing the substance when it comes to this.
	They start from the conclusion.
	Conclusion that they assume is that if there is equality of opportunity, there will be equality of outcome.
	So, if there isn't a quality of outcome, there mustn't be a quality of opportunity.
	So, we're going to have to socially engineer more opportunity and disadvantage others to ensure that and gold upon crimination.
Government's Hidden Agenda 00:11:14
	And if this creates a you know, a feeling of a grudge amongst you know actual Americans and well, you know, obviously this sort of policy as well.
	As you were describing it at the beginning, I couldn't help but think of, of course, the way that the state reacted to Southport and the way that they said, you know, oh, there's going to be far-right protests everywhere, all the newspapers, all the same headlines, all the same pictures, and obviously the way that all the placards from the protesters just all look at the same such an obvious state-funded objective.
	Well, I mean, there are two things about it.
	One, which is that it naturally assumes that with ethnic tensions and ethnic disparities, there is going to be conflict, and that instead of actually resolving the conflicts and getting rid of those conflicts,
	all you basically need to do is show up and tell, for instance, white victims of black crime to go up on stage in front of a camera and say, let's not make this as a racial issue.
	They want to just get white people to not be angry about it.
	Because with the issues of Sanford, it seems that the assumption was, okay, we're going to invite all of these black protest groups in, and obviously being black protest groups, they're going to want to start riots.
	We know how the 60s went.
	They're going to want to hurt people for no reason.
	So therefore, we need to give them a glow up, give them training so that they look as good as possible for the media, so that we have a reason to say to the media, and so the media can parrot back, that these are peaceful protesters and they're just looking for justice.
	The other thing is that, sadly, when you decide to reconstitute your entire country under something as far-reaching as the Civil Rights Act, and then the year after, under the same administration, open up mass immigration from the third world by changing the way that your immigration quotas work, this is kind of a logical approach to it if you genuinely want to change the entire racial demographic makeup of your country.
	Because, yeah, the majority population isn't going to be happy about it.
	Yeah, the majority population is going to fight back against it.
	And the populations coming in, they're going to want a bigger piece of the pie than they initially get when they come in.
	And they're going to potentially cause trouble, mainly through extra crime, community tensions, stress on the job market, etc.
	So when those tensions end up blowing up, well, it does make sense to have a department like this waiting to try to smooth everything over.
	Yeah, this is engineered conflict.
	Yeah, you've got taxpayer-funded government spooks showing up who you're not allowed to know exactly what they do.
	They're not allowed to divulge exactly what they do.
	They just tell you, here's how you make sure that this looks as good as possible for the sake of the media.
	Essentially, that's what they do.
	And as such, I think it was right for many people to chafe a little bit at the idea that they've been paying their tax money for the sake of funding the service, which disadvantages them, which is why one of the things that was actually good under the first year of the second Trump administration was that there was these big announcements that the CRS was going to be defunded.
	At the time, they had a total of 56 positions, and it was announced that the department will eliminate.
	This is the Justice Department, the Community Relations Service and its functions, a total of 56 positions, stating the CRS mission does not comport with Attorney General and Administration law enforcement and litigating priorities.
	And there were more reports on this.
	This is one from two weeks ago talking about it, saying that in a June 2025 report, the Trump administration said the Community Relations Service mission does not comport with Attorney General and Administration Law Enforcement and Litigating Priorities.
	An agency budget requested for 2026, which you can see down here, showed the Justice Department planned to reduce the office's staffing from 56 to zero.
	The Justice Department estimates the cuts would save $24 million this year.
	So $24 million of American taxpayer money potentially going to disadvantage Heritage Americans and to ensure that any conflicts that flare up don't go too far because let's be honest, the real reasons is it would make the minority communities look bad.
	A Justice Department spokesman told CBS News the portfolio and functions of the former Community Relations Service have been shifted into federal prosecutors' offices nationwide.
	Now that's a little bit of a catch, if you ask me.
	The initial intention was to yes, shut down the actual agency, but then just shift its functions and many of its staff members into federal prosecutors' offices nationwide, which seems to me to be more sweeping it under the rug and kind of making it more efficient, if anything.
	The spokesperson said the transition will save the department over $11 million and further President Trump's mission of having a federal government that's more efficient and effective for the American people.
	So again, it's not actually getting rid of the process and the goals of this department.
	It might be downsizing it a bit, but the government's overall goal is still situated in the same direction.
	CBS News has learned that approximately 30 laid-off Justice Department employees have been called back to work for the agency.
	These employees include some who worked for the Community Relations Service.
	According to one of the impacted employees, the workers have been reassigned to work for federal prosecutors, and that was the situation two weeks ago.
	But still, you know, the department had been shut down, it had been defunded.
	This was something good that Donald Trump and his administration was doing for the sake of benefiting the American people.
	Heritage Americans and the American taxpayer are no longer paying for a shadowy agency that wants to lie to them and feed them lies so that they get a misunderstanding of the world.
	So that they can.
	And that endanger them.
	Yeah, and so that they can organize protests in the wake of these shootings, these shootings like Trayvon Martin, which, if you actually look into the case, was a case of self-defense by George Zimmerman.
	Did the American government under Barack Obama come out to defend George Zimmerman in that situation?
	No.
	They organized protests against what happened, which ended up with George Zimmerman going to trial.
	And then when he was rightfully acquitted, BLM pops up out of nowhere.
	That's how the government was behaving.
	And this seemed, among a few other measures, to signal a change of direction of the American government.
	But sadly, I have some bad news for you folks.
	In a new government bill, which has passed, as I'll show you in a moment, they're back.
	The CRS is back, and they have been refunded to the tune of an annual budget of $20 million under the same remit.
	Now, this was under the Commerce, Justice, Science, Energy, and Water Development and Interior and Environmental Appropriations Act 2026, which has been signed into law.
	You can follow this and find it is HR6938.
	And you can scroll down.
	I won't scroll down, but you can basically find exactly what is screenshot here.
	This refunding of the Community Relations Service for $20 million.
	Now, this was a bill sponsored by Chairman Tom Cole, who is the Republican candidate representative of Oklahoma.
	So it's even more shocking to me that a Republican, after one of the successes of the Republican administration last year, would come in and refund this organization, refund this agency with American taxpayer money.
	For reasons that have not been made clear in all of the reporting that I've seen to do with this, nobody even mentions that this is in here.
	But it is in here.
	They're refunding the organization, haven't they?
	Behind science, energy, and water and things like that.
	Yeah, it seems so because the name of the bill, Commerce, Justice, Science, Energy, and Water Development, and Interior and Environmental Appropriations Act, does not suggest anywhere that this clause is in here, giving these people your money to disadvantage you and make your lives worse again.
	The only report that I've seen really talking about this was that this one saying the Trump administration reinstates fired employees of DOJ Race Relations Agency.
	The Justice Department, in a filing on Tuesday in a federal court in Boston, disclosed that it had on Friday rescinded layoff notices it issued in September to 13 of the Community Relations Services employees as part of a quote reduction in force.
	Those job cuts would have eliminated almost all of its employees.
	A fact civil rights groups cited in a lawsuit arguing the firings were part of an unlawful effort by Trump's administration to dismantle the Community Relations Service.
	In Tuesday's filing, the Justice Department said it decided to reinstate the employees as a matter of administrative discretion.
	But it did not say if they would be resuming work on community relations service functions.
	In fact, the plaintiffs noted in a separate filing.
	Well, it seems most likely to me, given that the organization is being refunded again, that all of these people who've had their layoffs rescinded are probably going to go back to doing the exact same thing that they were doing.
	And I don't know why this is exactly.
	There's been no reason given for this.
	Perhaps it's because of a lot of the problems that have come about as a result of all of the bad publicity ICE has been getting recently.
	Maybe the administration has decided, actually, we do need this organization to try to mediate these conflicts because now we've got footage of ICE going out and dragging people through the streets and shooting people that's causing massive protests in places like Minneapolis.
	Is this a case of, you know, Trump always chickens out, that taco phrase that people have been using recently?
	Was this a fake victory in the first place that they always intended to rescind when they thought the eyes were off of this?
	Because they did a big thing about promoting that they were taking the money away from this.
	Whereas this has kind of been snuck under the rug a little bit.
	Either way, I do not think it is fair.
	I do not think it is justice that American taxpayers should be paying for an organization like this, which goes out of its way not only to hide the truth about these situations when racial tensions and community tensions do flare up, but go out of their way also to push the country in a more left-wing, multicultural, progressive direction, because that doesn't benefit anybody.
Commuter Train Derailment Near Barcelona 00:14:53
	Let's go through the rumble rants.
	I understand your anger, Harry, with this segment in mind.
	Could you do a segment about Hollywood keeps blackwashing ginger characters?
	It does keep happening.
	They're raising your people, Harry.
	Yeah, clearly.
	Sigil Stone sends two in saying nothing so diversity is our strength, like an entire bureau dedicated to silencing victims of diversity.
	And also, he says, all of history is just made up.
	Oh, he's close.
	He almost gets it.
	I'm sure I get a lot more than I let on on this podcast.
	But let's get on to your segment now.
	Right.
	So my segment is going to be what's going on there.
	I think he's just making sure all of the links are loaded.
	Right.
	We're going to talk about a very sad topic: the disasters that have happened in Spanish railways.
	We have had around 45 people who are dead, and we'll have hundreds of injured people.
	Right, and let me just show you some pictures here.
	And we are going to discuss about what happened and who is responsible because it points out, it points towards the view that the government is to blame.
	And the state-owned company that is entrusted with guarding the railways and the railway tracks, they didn't do their job, despite the fact that they received increased funding.
	And the Minister of Transportation of the Spanish government, who is, I believe, a coalitional, it's a socialist party that is governing at the moment.
	And they were saying that the tracks were investigated a few weeks ago, I think on the 7th of January, and everything was perfect.
	And they had increased funding for the tracks.
	But it looks like reality is very different to what this minister has been saying.
	Let's look at this.
	Some of these pictures look horrific.
	And I will say that this is a topic that makes me particularly sad because I have been covering train disasters before.
	And it's really tragic because very frequently, if you're in a train or and something like this happens, there's nothing you can do.
	You could say, arguably, this applies to planes, this applies to all sorts of transportation, but it's just tragic.
	Let us see what happened.
	Right, we have here the BBC article.
	It says what happened on the day after this particular accident.
	The first one happened on the 18th of January, but more have happened.
	And there are more.
	We are going to talk about them.
	There was one also on the 20th of January.
	And then other two minor incidents in Cartagena and in the Marazme coast, close to Catalonia.
	Right, let's talk about what happened here.
	They're saying that at least this has been updated on the 23rd of January.
	At least 45 people have died and dozens more have been injured after two high-speed trains collided in southern Spain.
	And they say that the crash took place at Adamos near Cordoba.
	And it's one of the worst, it's the worst rail disaster in Spain in more than a decade.
	Oh, so it wasn't that the tracks were faulty and it got derailed.
	Two trains crashed into one another.
	Because.
	In this case, most probably because the tracks had some gaps in them.
	Right.
	So you see here there are two trains that collided.
	One went from Malaga to Madrid, the other from Madrid to Huelva.
	And as it says here, one had four carriages, the other had eight carriages.
	And there was a problem here in the tracks.
	Most probably there is investigation, but they're saying this is the most likely the most likely reason.
	You see here the last three carriages literally were derailed and went to the other track.
	Yes.
	And they hit the first carriage of the other train.
	And they say the train's front carriages leave the track falling into an embankment.
	And yeah, you have reports by the survivors.
	You have here the images here.
	They're saying the president of the local Andalusian government is saying that they are trying to fix the situation.
	They say the problem is that carriages are twisted so that the metal is twisted with the people inside.
	And they try to take them to safety.
	And there is speculation about what caused the crash.
	And they have said that it isn't sabotage.
	The authorities said that it isn't sabotage.
	I don't know how much people can trust them, but the more I read into this, the more it looks like this was just not maintained.
	Funds were increased for the state-owned company that is supposed to maintain the rail tracks.
	But they were just, it looks like they just did anything but maintain the rail tracks.
	And this is a case where you have also workers' union saying repeatedly that the tracks aren't maintained and they need more funding for safety reasons.
	But also you have people from another side saying that, well, you have massive state corruption and this was always going to be just a sort of scheme, increased funding where it wasn't going to go to maintenance and it was going to be disseminated to people within that company, but also some of the syndicalists of the workers' unions.
	Because if you see in several other cases and in several other train disasters, you constantly see certainly one that happened in Greece a few years ago in Teby.
	You always have the union of workers saying that we need more and more and more money for maintenance and them issuing warnings.
	But on the other hand, they very frequently, in a typical leftist fashion, try to obstruct almost every attempt to make the railway a bit more, let's say, smooth running and a bit more up-to-date, technologically speaking.
	I don't know if that's the case here.
	It remains to be seen, but it's definitely something that people from a more conservative perspective believe.
	And they say here the precise cause of the derailment remains under investigation, but the preliminary report suggests the rail was already damaged before the crash.
	Spain's rail accident investigation body said that there is evidence that a fracture in the rail occurred before one of the trains got derailed.
	And they found notches on the wheels of several Lyro carriages.
	That's one of the train, the kind of the train, including some that did not derail, which were consistent with the wheels striking a broken section of the rail.
	And they say that earlier this week, the transport minister, Oscar Puento, we will have lots to say against him, confirmed grooves the size of a coin were found on the wheels of the first five carriages of the EDEO train, which passed safely over the track before the final three carriages derailed.
	Two or three trains that had gone over the tracks surely before had had similar notches as he added.
	Right, so let me just show you a picture here that was uploaded on the 19th.
	So this is the first, this is the first railway rail accident where train accident we're talking about.
	You see a gap here that is being investigated.
	This seems a bit poorly maintained.
	And the gap's not a result of the crash and it's been torn away.
	It already had that gap in before.
	This is the consensus view at the moment.
	Investigations are still going on, but this seems to be the consensus view.
	Right.
	And here we have another accident that happened two days afterwards.
	Speaking about a whole country, let's say, F up.
	So they say commuter train gets derailed near Barcelona.
	The driver died.
	Four people were badly injured and 37 people were injured.
	And what happened here?
	There was a containment wall that got destroyed.
	And the train hit the containment wall.
	And they're saying that this happened because of, primarily because of the heavy rain.
	There was heavy rainfall in that region.
	And it led to the containment wall being corrupt.
	Right.
	And falling into the tracks.
	And the train hit those tracks.
	But I don't understand because you can have heavy rainfall, but a company that is especially state-owned, but any company, it's not just an issue of whether it's stained owned or not.
	But in state-owned companies, there are more incentives for corruption.
	You have to take into account the possibility of heavy rainfall.
	You can't have containment walls that are just falling into the tracks because rain was a bit heavier this time.
	We are talking about people dying.
	Right.
	And here we had a very trainee driver who died.
	And as we said, 37 people who were injured and four of them very badly injured.
	And there were two more incidents that happened afterwards.
	Let me just give you the...
	So if I go spin again, I'm not taking the train, is what I'm learning.
	You should be careful.
	It's over a...
	I don't say that as a joke.
	I mean that this is genuinely dangerous to go on by the sounds of.
	Yeah, it looks like the tracks aren't maintained.
	And it says here in Mercia in Cartagena, a commuter train collided with the arm of a crane that encroached on the tracks.
	The arm of a crane.
	Yes.
	Causing injuries to several passengers.
	And then in the Maresme Coast, I hope I pronounced it correctly, a train struck a rock on the tracks caused by some storm affecting Catalonia, but no serious injuries were reported.
	So you see that when we're talking about four incidents, it isn't just an accident.
	It's a pattern.
	Even with fewer than four.
	It's a pattern.
	It seems that something is really wrong here.
	You see here pictures from the train afterwards that hit the containment wall that was destroyed.
	And also you can see that all these trains have graffiti on them, which means that, yeah, they aren't maintained.
	Or at least they aren't maintained as they should be.
	I know that several carriages, especially of the underground, are frequently painted, but this is just not the image of a railway that is of a rail company or a railway that is maintained.
	At least this isn't the image of people who are taking the safety of passengers seriously.
	And let's this is a thread.
	If people want to go and check it out, I'm conscious about time.
	If people want to go out and check out a thread that is criticizing the Spanish transport minister, check it out from our links.
	We have to move on a bit due to insufficient time.
	Right, so here we have the Guardian.
	It says Spain's rail network under scrutiny after second deadly crash in three days.
	Trainee driver killed in accident near Barcelona, just days after 43 died in collision between two high-speed trains.
	And here The Guardian is, of course, here you see it's where the accident happened.
	And of course, the Guardian is going to put forward a more, let's say, worker union-friendly perspective.
	And it says that the incidents have prompted Spain's biggest train drivers' union to call for an indefinite strike to demand assurances for the profession's safety.
	They say that they're going to demand criminal liability for those responsible for ensuring safety in the railway infrastructure.
	I mean, fair.
	This is fair.
	And I because as a driver, I mean, obviously, it's awful that a trainee driver died as well.
	But as a driver, your responsibility is also the safety of all of the passengers as well.
	So you don't want to be in danger.
	You don't want to be liable for everybody else on the train being in danger.
	And ultimately, you just want to get them there safely.
	I mean, that's a horrible position to be put in that now.
	I can't even trust the rails the trains are driving on.
	And I want to say something to add to what I was saying before when I criticized workers' unions.
	That I want to say that in this case, I think it is totally understandable and justified to call for responsibility.
	Frequently, what I meant to say before is that people, especially in the upper echelons of unions, the major syndicalists, are usually striking deals under the table with government officials, and there's corruption there that doesn't flow to the average, let's say, member of the union, but it definitely happens in the upper echelons of these unions.
	Right.
	And here they're saying that basically let me just sorry.
	Right.
	So what I wanted to tell you here is that there is a question as to who is responsible.
	And there is a where a minute.
	Sorry, we'll have to small to do a small yeah.
	There is a question as to who is responsible for maintaining the tracks.
Who Maintains the Tracks? 00:13:29
	And the answer is it is the company called ADIF, Administrador de Infrastructuras Federoviarias.
	And it's a Spanish state-owned company in charge of railway infrastructure.
	They say that several companies operate on it, but the railway maintenance falls on them.
	And that what happens is that they recently got 700 million euros fund in order to renovate the tracks.
	And the transport minister of Spain went out and said that they did a great job and that they invested in that company and that they ensured that everything works well.
	This transport minister is called Oscar Puente.
	He stated that a track had passed a geometric inspection on the 7th of January 2026, 11 days before the accident.
	And here you see, they say Spanish railway infrastructure manager Adif has assured that it carried out a comprehensive inspection of the Adamus section of the railway line 11 days before the serious accident on January 18th.
	So we have the same company that the Minister of Transport said is a great company and received additional funding and they recently got 700 million euros for railway maintenance.
	They said that they conducted a high-quality investigation on the safety of that specific region of the tracks where the accident happened.
	So you can sort of get an idea of what is going on and that this is yet another case of corruption of the Spanish government.
	I'm sure that there is an ongoing investigation.
	I'm sure that who's doing the investigation is of course another question, but it definitely speaks volumes.
	When you have the government saying we want to take care of you, we want to invest in railway safety, we want to make workers safer borrows, so people who are commuting safer and we are taxing you more in order to fund this company more that is going to maintain the tracks.
	And then something happened in the region where this company conducted an investigation 11 days before the accident happened.
	So this in and of itself says all you need to know.
	And the Spanish government is, let's say, right now is micromanaging decline, as you'd expect.
	They're saying that they're imposing temporary speed limits on sections of high-speed railway in Madrid.
	Obviously, they know which sections they are because they know which sections they haven't maintained, despite the fact that they had to maintain them.
	So I think that inspections, great renovations of all that.
	Exactly.
	They knew exactly where to impose these speed limits.
	And there are questions about the Spanish government and how corrupt it is.
	And well, it's a socialist party that is governing.
	And recently it's behind the polls.
	The conservatives are ahead.
	And they're saying that if there were elections to happen tomorrow, a right-wing coalition would easily achieve majority.
	And here is what the Spanish government is considering doing.
	They have just agreed to launch an extraordinary regularization process that could grant legal residence and work permits to over half a million undocumented migrants.
	Now, I have Spanish friends.
	No royal decree.
	I don't think that the King of Spain is against this, but it has been a, I think it's a policy of the Spanish government.
	What were you about to say before that?
	Sorry, Saras, you've got what?
	Sorry?
	Sorry, yeah, I sort of forgot.
	Have you got family in Spain or something?
	No, I have friends in Spain, and they frequently tell me that this happens, that when that there is precious time lost when it's stained owned duties, because instead of them doing their job, they're wasting time in sort of endless assembly discussions.
	It's always the process, people are talking or just express voicing concerns about the process, whether it's fair for this or that interested party, and the job isn't done.
	And there is just decline.
	But they can all give a massive amnesty to half a million illegal immigrants.
	They can always make sure to do that nice and quickly.
	Yes.
	Brilliant.
	And here's an article by the Telegraph.
	It says, Spain gives half a million migrants legal status to defeat the far right.
	Applicants will be allowed to work in any sector to help curb institutional racism that only fuels exploitation and racist hatred.
	So they are framing it in terms of this anti-racist policy.
	Now, one thing that I was told also is that when people talk about immigration in Spain, it isn't exactly the same composure of migration flows such as it is in other countries.
	Frequently, it's too much from Latin America.
	But one thing to note, and in this case, there may be a bit more of a cultural continuity or a bit less friction that you could say there are in cases that we are dealing with on a daily basis.
	And yeah, it's but we are talking about undocumented people here.
	And they're saying that right now they are giving them working permit and legal residency.
	But it's what we were talking about before.
	When you are importing en masse populations, even if you don't give them voting rights straight away, you are increasing the number of people who will function as a pressure group.
	Maybe it isn't half a million people of one particular background.
	Maybe it's many backgrounds.
	Most probably it's several backgrounds.
	But the number of people who are able to exert pressure upon the government rises.
	And at some point this will translate into voting rights.
	Yeah, and then you get government policies explicitly aimed at buying those votes.
	Yes.
	So it looks like this is something incredibly corrupt.
	This is yet another occasion where statism really corrupts society and we have infrastructural collapse and they are trying to micromanage decline and in micromanaging decline they're making things worse.
	Some matters are just you either do them or not.
	You shouldn't just spend endless time talking about how you're going to fix the tracks and whether the ego of this or that syndicalist or state official has been hurt by a process.
	You fix the track and no one cares about the other.
	The rest.
	Fix the track because it's about safety and this is the number one priority of a state.
	It needs to ensure safety.
	Simple as.
	Yes.
	Right.
	We've got one rumble rant saying regarding the first segment, the EU is a communist power structure similar to the USSR and the CCP.
	It's in our faces, but most people don't see it or refuse to admit it.
	One thing I will say is like the USSR and CCP, it does seem to be a labyrinth of different committees and bureaucratic structures which don't always interface well with one another.
	Do we have any video comments?
	We do not have any video comments.
	So it looks like we're going through the website comments.
	And thank you to everybody who sends money in and thank you to everybody who subscribes to the website.
	We always appreciate all of your support.
	Omar Rawad from my segment says, even steelmanning the elite human capital position, there are innumerable examples of mercenary or foreign interests resulting in espionage.
	The incentive to bring any of them over in the first place is through self-interest, not some noble goal to help or improve the West.
	Well, I mean, just to think of the Indians as one example, obviously, Tata, being an Indian company, owned the steel manufacturing of Port Talbot.
	And one of the things that Tata was saying at the time was that, well, we can't manufacture it under these economic conditions whilst we're being suppressed by net zero regulations and green regulations.
	But obviously, India is not care about that.
	And so, ultimately, sure, if after all these generations and generations of steel workers in Port Talbot or Scunthorpe, you know, which being owned as it was by the Chinese, if all of these generations just suddenly have to dry up and the entire lifeblood of that town has to go because some Chinese guy over in Beijing has looked at a mass sheet and said, well, numbers, it's not a good investment.
	We'll just let that go.
	Yeah, that is going to be an easier decision than if it is owned by a local businessman or even just a British businessman, obviously, who has is going to be penalized for it more or actually has some sense of ties to that community.
	I mean, with the net zero thing, the funny thing is we talk about how Europe's trying to separate from America, become its own superpower.
	Lots of talk regarding this.
	But they're just such silly bastards that they numpties.
	Yeah, numpties.
	And in what is it?
	euro news i saw the other day there was this uh report on how a number of european countries and the uk because of course the uk always has to get involved in this kind of rubbish have decided that they're going to one of the ways that they're going to invest in their infrastructure you ready for this guys 9.5 billion euros in north sea wind One of the ways that they're going to invest in their infrastructure, you ready for this, guys?
	9.5 billion euros in North Sea wind.
	I could probably generate enough wind for them if they wanted through all the sighing that I have to do whenever they wheel.
	Oh, don't you worry.
	The European Parliament already produces enough wind to power the world, to be honest.
	It's impressive they don't just hook up a load of generators to them.
	Ed Miller band harnessing Enoch's spinning grave, and my God, won't it be spinning by this point, bless him.
	There was nothing more demoralizing than exploring the most deepest, darkest depths of New Zealand, only to find a public toilet.
	Where is this going?
	That had diagrams showing not to squat on it because of Indian tourists breaking them.
	Well, they were getting on the toilet seats and on the toilet bowls and squatting down.
	New Zealand, come on, guys.
	I want better for you.
	The White Rider says, here's something terrifying for you.
	Oh, God.
	The total population of the EU and the UK together is about 520 million.
	Yeah, million, thank you.
	If free movement was allowed, India could send enough Indians to every country in the EU and the UK to make each of the countries 50% ethnically Indian, and India would still have 950 million, almost a billion people left over.
	And our leadership will be foolish enough to allow it.
	Well, yeah, that's the thing.
	Is that, you know, I've met plenty.
	I know that Indians on the internet can be an absolute menace, and they do swarm you.
	But personally, I've met plenty of very kind, very nice Indians, right?
	I've not got any problem with those people individually.
	The problem is that, yeah, India is full of those ones that you see on the internet who are just awful.
	And also, just in sheer numbers, they can flood you.
	They could flood most of the rest of the entire world.
	Because unlike China, there isn't any real questions on the population of India where people are like, is China lying about how many people they have?
	No, people see India and they go, no, they're probably hiding Indians, to be honest.
	There's probably more of them than we know.
	Anomaly says Indians are already discussing going to Ireland with this and the settling in the United Kingdom after three years.
	Oh, I wouldn't worry about that.
	Ireland's got a population of four million people.
	Literally, nobody but Irishmen should be moving to Ireland if anybody's going to be moving there.
	If anything, all those Irish Americans should be going back to Ireland.
	And that's one of the problems with Ireland.
	All of the best Irish tended to become Americans.
	George Hap says, for an empire to thrive, you need your citizens to feel like they are valued rather than being replaceable by foreigners at the drop of the hat.
	This is a problem in both the United States and the EU.
Journey to the East 00:03:42
	Yeah, exactly.
	How does Europe expect to break away from the yoke of America if in every single country its elites are actively hated?
	Because as well, and this is a part that I've never truly understood.
	They, you know, as what you were saying, Stelios, for your segment with the trains, sure, you can legalize 500,000 illegals.
	You can do that.
	And they will vote for you in the short term.
	But if you think that this is going to solidify your hold on power indefinitely for decades till the end of it.
	It's not.
	It obviously won't happen.
	And you see that because when the number exceeds a particular amount, then people start forming their own parties.
	Yes.
	And I think we've seen this in the UK as well.
	We absolutely have.
	What I don't get is why they keep doing the elites keep doing it, knowing that it is going to ultimately result in their loss of power as well.
	It's just a thing I can't square.
	I'll go through some of the other comments on mine and Stelios' segments.
	And also, we've got a Rumble rant in from That's a Ramble, Random Name.
	Harry, when's the next Journey to the East going with East with your magnificent strawberry blonde co-host, The Samson?
	You've got a The now.
	You're a definitive article, Samson.
	I hope you're proud of yourself.
	Thank you.
	I am in favour of this.
	We should all be the.
	The Stelios, The Samson, the Luca.
	So people can know that they're not just speaking to like a Luca.
	They're not just speaking to a Samson.
	No, they're not the Luca.
	This is the original.
	This is the OG, the definitive article.
	You should all be honoured.
	And to answer your question as well, it should be soon because Return to Silent Hill, the film, has come out now.
	Samson's not watched it yet, but I did on Monday.
	Got some thoughts about it.
	Was it good?
	No.
	Was it bad?
	Oh.
	It was the first one.
	I like the first one.
	Well, that's the.
	By comparison.
	I need to speed it out.
	I thought the first one was alright.
	It changed a few things from the game that I wasn't hugely a fan of, like turning it from just being a pagan cult into being like a weird sect of Christianity because the director wanted it to be like, oh, I hate Christians.
	The second, this return to Silent Hill, though, it destroys the story it's trying to adapt.
	When you watch a movie, do you just sit back and enjoy it, trying to have a good time?
	Or are you one of those people who are trying to find out?
	I went in trying to enjoy it.
	It's an adaptation of one of the best games ever, Silent Hill 2.
	And I was just thinking, listen, all I need, I don't even need it to be like the best thing ever.
	All I need is mediocre at best, right?
	And I'm happy.
	It wasn't even mediocre.
	Was genuinely terrible.
	The creative decisions that they made throughout were bizarre.
	Absolutely bizarre.
	Pointless characters, pointless plots, scenes that go nowhere, confusing character actions, trying to tie it into the plot of the first film when the story it's adapting has nothing to do.
	It was.
	I will have more to say about it when we do Journey to the East.
	I think you've got your dollars worth there.
	Oh, just get off your chest.
	Omar Award, the Ministry of Fairness isn't exactly what you'd expect from a demonic 1984-inspired government service.
	I know, right?
Limited Resources Available 00:03:13
	Ed Miliband, The Chaos is the point, divide and conquer.
	Henry Ashman, the other slimy tactic used to morph equality of opportunity into a quality of outcome is you fundamentally cannot have true equality of opportunity.
	There are limited resources available at specific times.
	For example, someone born in September is almost a year older than classmates born in August and is often bigger and stronger until puberty.
	Is that a fair opportunity?
	Not really.
	But is it something the government can realistically legislate around?
	Also, not really.
	What may have originally meant will remove race, gender, sexuality from the decision-making process now ends up assuming that some sort of utopian world will be created where everyone has infinite access to infinite resources all of the time.
	Yeah, at the massive disadvantage of some people.
	All of that comes with the asterisk at the massive disadvantage of white people.
	Because you can remove race, gender, and sexuality from the decision-making process consciously, but it will always crop up in the results that you get from it.
	And that's what they're fighting against.
	They're fighting against the harsh, cold reality of differences between people that always rears its head, which is why white people always have to be punished for the reality that we live in.
	Do you want to read some of yours, Stelios?
	Yep.
	Michael Drebelbis.
	Hi, Michael.
	This is the key problem in socialism/slash communism.
	Everyone wants the free ride.
	Nobody wants to do the actual work.
	Yep.
	And they're incentivizing people who don't work.
	Omar Award, the eighth scariest word in the Spanish language.
	Yeah, I can't pronounce this.
	Luckily, the government will solve government problems by implementing more government.
	The translation was going to help.
	Yeah.
	Again, Michael Drebelbis, who is responsible for this?
	Room full of people, each pointing at the other person.
	He is.
	Yeah, pretty much.
	Yeah, that's how they're doing it.
	Yeah.
	Henry Ashman, ultimately, I doubt there will be any real responsibility taken on a personal level by anyone involved.
	It's likely to be a massive fine on the operator, and maybe the CEO/slash minister will lose the job with a golden parachute.
	Safety inspectors, railway operation teams, etc. need to face prison in the event of them being culpable or negligent.
	On high-speed trains, it can take over a mile to bring a train to a complete stop.
	So there's no way a driver can be expected to stop in time if there's a fault on the track.
	Absolutely.
	Roman Observer, the Reich have easy majorities in most of Europe.
	If the conservatives, within quotation marks, didn't always side with the left to contain the far right.
	That's literally what the system was set up to do post-World War II.
	That was the point of it.
	And now it's just morphed into this hellscape clown world that we live in.
	One last Rumble rant sent through by Calergi.
	Harry, I don't need it to be bananas and rice.
	I need it to be bananas and rice.
	Listen, man, on its own terms, it was a awful, awful film.
	You don't need to be like a super fan of the game like I was to be disappointed by it.
	I was worried by the terrible reviews going in, but thought, you know, I'll give it a chance.
	But no, it was shit.
Afford Nice Clothes 00:01:10
	And on that happy note.
	No, there is an honorable mention that must be read where it says from Sneeder Truck says Carl needs to be more extremist with the load seat.
	Shorten it, it's cleaner.
	Only Luca is maintaining the high standards.
	No tie on Harry and Stelios.
	Before, only Dan couldn't afford a tie.
	TIE fund.
	I will say that there was a moment of weakness last week.
	Stellios nearly got the tie off for MedMaxing, but solidarity with my European brothers and sisters.
	Well, if you really want to help me be able to afford a tie, I need my TIE fund.
	Buy an Islander.
	Buy an Islander.
	And then maybe Stelios and I can finally drag ourselves out of the gutter and afford the nice clothes that you also obviously want us to wear.
	They can be like me.
	So pick one of these up while it's still available.
	It is still available, isn't it, Samson?
	You've got to buy it from the Worldwide Score, Americans.
	So yeah, get one while you still can, or else you'll be paying through the nose on eBay.
	And with that, thank you very much for joining us today.
