You're listening to the Liberty News Radio Network, and this is the Political Cesspool.
The Political Cesspool, going across the South and worldwide, as the South's foremost populist conservative radio program.
And here to guide you through the murky waters of the Political Cesspool is your host, James Edwards.
Folks, as I said here, back in the studio with some brand new equipment, you know, we had to upgrade.
We hate to upgrade.
We run these quarterly fundraising drives four times a year, hence the name quarterly.
But we had to break the piggyback one time.
We really did this.
Well, for a couple of reasons, too, but believe me, we try to stretch every scent that comes in from our audience to the...
We squeeze the nickel till the Indian rides a buffalo, as I used to say.
Yeah, that's what he said.
But so we're very frugal.
In fact, we're misers.
And we try to keep it just the meat and potato shoestring.
But when components fail in our broadcasting equipment, we have to upgrade it, unfortunately.
That's our lifeline.
Or else we continue to have technical difficulties.
We don't like having technical difficulties.
And by the way, we do have technical difficulties here in Memphis now.
If you're not hearing us on the radio show, it's because a transformer blew out that is vital for the transmission of our show here in Memphis.
So if you are a Memphis listener, just get on the internet feed.
Yeah, it's not affecting the internet audience tonight.
But see, we don't like technical difficulties because Bushman thinks it reflects poorly upon him.
I can guarantee you, anytime we have a blip on the radar, it's something that's happening locally here at the station or in our station.
And when we get back, the reason that we are rarely off air is because of the lion-hearted efforts of Sam Bush when he's crewed back in Salt Lake.
If it wasn't for the network team in Salt Lake, once we went down, we'd stay down until next Saturday.
They always get us back by hook or crook.
But anyway, so I say all that to say this.
It's great to be with you tonight.
It's great to be operating at full strength for the first time in a few weeks.
But ladies and gentlemen, honestly, I still remember, and we talk about this every anniversary show.
We talk about this at the end of every year.
I still remember the moment I took microphone in hand on October 26, 2004, and uttered the first words of my broadcasting career here on the political cesspool.
And now almost 12 years later, you look at where we are.
We are and have been infused into this presidential campaign by the clown media.
I'm not even going to refer.
I refer to us as mainstream media because we connect and resonate with mainstream America.
I call them the establishment media.
They're the establishment that the mouthpieces for the regime.
But even that is too kind.
We're going to refer to them henceforth as the clown media.
And the clown media has really just lavished press on us this year.
And you look at how far we've grown.
Ladies and gentlemen, you've made that possible.
We've done it as Sinatra might say, we did it our way.
Without retreat, surrender.
She almost said that too.
That's right, she is.
You did.
Without retreat, surrender, or apology, we are here and we're proud and we're not backing down.
We're fighting to the fullest extent of our abilities, and you give us the wins under our wing.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
I'm full of clichés tonight.
Well, you're full of Bette Midler, too.
I wouldn't go that far.
All right.
Anyway, it's great to be here with you tonight.
I am a guy who is nostalgic.
I'm a guy who's sentimental.
I'm a guy who looks back with pride.
I'm a guy who looks forward with hope, and I'm very optimistic.
I'm very happy.
I'm just happy to be here with Keith Alexander tonight as we serve as your voice here on the mainstream.
There's no place like home, as James and I were singing for the show.
Well, actually, that's not what we were singing.
But to finish up what I was saying, it's great to be your radio voice.
But what we were actually singing is we were jamming actually before the show started, and we were jamming.
And I got to the studio early tonight.
Keith came in about 15 minutes early.
I was in here about an hour early.
But I was jamming pretty hard.
We're the only show that broadcasts live on Saturday night here.
And I was jamming pretty hard to Peter and Gordon.
I don't mind saying.
Yeah, you were Peter and I was Gordon.
I guess it's like we're the – Well, if you were Gordon, you'd be dead.
Gordon died.
Gordon Waller died.
Well, who was the short one and who was the tall one?
Gordon Waller was the tall one.
He died seven years ago.
Peter was him.
Peter Asher was the one with red hair and glasses who was dating one of the Beatles' sisters, which is how he.
I'll go for that.
And anyway, we were jamming to I Go to Pieces, a live version by Peter Ashton in Liverpool just this year.
I go to Pieces.
Would you like to sing it for him, Keith?
I don't know that I can do that.
I don't know all the words, but I can say this.
I did find out definitively who James's favorite English invasion group was.
He told me, and it was not the Beatles.
Well, I said the Beatles had the most good songs, but pound for pound, I would go with Herman's Hermits.
Well, Herman was kind of bubblegum, but he was a great person.
I'm big on bubblegum pop, okay?
Well, I loved Peter Noon.
He's still going strong, by the way.
That's right.
In England, I have a lot of English relatives, and I kind of.
Well, let's count the hits.
We've got my favorite Herman's Hermits Silhouettes.
We've got I'm Into Something Good.
We've got Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter.
Come on, keep them coming.
No milk today.
That's right.
There's a kind of a hush.
Yep.
What else did we have?
Well, we had plenty more.
We had Dandy.
We had Henry VIII.
Yes, who I name.
I actually named my son after that very song, so that was good.
I'm Henry VIII.
I am.
Henry VIII, I am all.
Peter and Gordon.
I go to Pieces.
What a song.
It's tragic.
It's heartbreaking.
But we were jamming to it.
We normally like to jam to arena rock before a show, but tonight we were listening to I go to places she used to go, but I know she'll never show.
She hurt me so much inside.
Now I hope she's satisfied and I. Go to pieces and I want to cry.
There it is, ladies and gentlemen.
Go to pieces and I almost die every time my baby passes by.
Keith Alexander James Edwards, the next great harmonic duo in the style of the Everly Brothers.
It's coming later.
This is our post-radio career.
Just get ready.
We're going to be coming to an arena near you.
Look, this is the thing, though.
This is us.
You read all of these horrible defamations.
You read all of the libel, all of the slander.
And let me tell you, folks, you hadn't seen nothing yet.
Now that we're in the last hundred days before this election, you're going to see James Edwards and Donald Trump joined at the hip like Siamese twins in the new news meeting.
Well, and it's begun to happen.
Of course, nothing could be more intense than the – And, of course, David Duke will be thrown in there for good measure, too.
And don't think that that's not happening, especially now that David's running for Senate.
And we might talk about that later tonight, too.
David was on the show with us two or three weeks ago, considering running for office in Louisiana.
Now he's announced, and we'll give you, we may give you some updates on that tonight.
Very interesting, right?
Very interesting.
Absolutely.
I don't want to get into it now because I want to wrap up our very important conversation about Peter and Gordon, but also the conventions, and then we'll go on to other topics.
I like to bookend these things, but the point of this segment is, if there is a point, is that we're the guys you can relate to.
We're family men, we're Christians, we're conservatives, we fight for our people.
Yes, we're pro-white.
We don't, I mean, our quick motto is no apology, no surrender, and no retreat, as it is on our Confederate flag here in the studio.
But listen, folks, we'll get back down to brass attacks and serious commentary after these words from our sponsors.
Thank you for taking us into this break, Keith.

Are you familiar with the term vigor?
Strength in body and mind?
He pursued his tennis game with vigor, for example.
Well, I hadn't, but I learned about it from Kurt Crosby.
All right, and he actually let me take a scientifically proven free vigor test.
And I got 13 out of 32, not very good.
But I worked on it with him.

And now, back to tonight's show.
All right, I guess after that last segment, we probably should get back to the show.
One of the things that I saw written, and I don't remember who it was from, but it was from someone in the clown media.
But they actually got this right.
They said that Trump's speech was all Buchanan minus religion.
And that is Trump's only pitfall with me is that, well, it's on social conservative issues.
The life issue, right to life, and some of the other things that Pat Buchanan was so good on.
See, Pat Buchanan was everything that Trump is, plus he's a...
Well, he was an intellectual, but he's also a Christian.
And he's strong on the homosexual question.
Listen, I don't hate homosexuals, but I am totally opposed to the homosexual agenda.
It should not have a place in a healthy, functioning society.
It's an affront.
If you're a Christian, what can you, you know, God's word is, you know, dead set against it.
Well, that's that.
Well, that's very true, Keith.
And that's one thing.
But even if you're not a Christian, it's an affront to natural law.
It doesn't lead to reproduction.
It's just another manifestation of the culture of death.
If you are a homosexual, you could be a homosexual if that's what you've got to be.
But I don't think it should be celebrated, promoted, and advanced as some sort of an alternate lifestyle.
It shouldn't be equal to celebrated at a major party's presidential convention.
It shouldn't be equal to or greater than God-ordained families.
Special privileges for none.
They can have equal rights, but it shouldn't be celebrated.
Trump's weak on homosexuality.
He's weak on life.
But he's strong on everything else.
And he's certainly a nationalist.
He's a populist.
I'm all in for Trump.
Don't get me wrong.
If I had to tweak one thing, it would be that.
But here's the thing.
Getting back to Pitts versus Kane.
Now, they are both cookie-cutter Republicans and Democrats.
Mike Pence is basically your just generic establishment Republican.
But I did see him on the O'Reilly Factor this week, and he said, as many Republicans will, that he is a Christian.
He believes in the right to life.
He's opposed to the homosexual agenda.
Okay, I can get along with that.
Well, they all say that none of them ever do anything about it, and I'm sure he fits into that camp.
But it does balance out the Trump ticket a little bit.
Tim Kaine, I saw an interesting comment about Tim Kaine.
Now, he comes from Virginia, the state that produced the greatest American to ever live, Robert E. Lee.
Virginia, you're better than that, okay?
But Tim Kaine, if he's not a homosexual, he is missing a heck of an opportunity.
But he should have not graduated beyond, as I saw written by someone this week, the mayor of a city like Kalispell, Montana.
That should be the height of the career of someone like Kane.
But now he is, of course, on the ticket.
So there is a little bit of a contrast, but between Pence and Kane, it's just cookie-cutter Republican versus cookie cutter Democrat.
Two party men extraordinaire.
I think they're a good thing.
And Pence was a cruise guy.
Pence endorsed Cruz in the primary.
So that's what we have.
We have two typical politicians running as vice presidents.
Think they kind of cancel each other out, which is what ought to happen, because the people that we're really interested in are Hillary versus Donald Trump, and Hillary represents basically poison for America.
She, she is going to do so many things to kill our economy, to kill the voice of the founding stock of this nation and to leave us, you know so, so badly injured by these policies.
For example, look at what has happened to the family in America.
People, we have a divorce rate that you know we would never have dreamt we would have had back in the 1950s.
One of the big reasons is economic men can't earn the type of living anymore that their families require or expect of them.
So consequently, this weakens the marital bond.
That, along with things like no-fault divorce, like school integration, which has made it uh, absolutely imperative for a lot of families to send their children to private schools, if you live in a place like Memphis Tennessee, where the public schools are, putting your kids into the public schools like throwing them into the black hole of Calcutta, these expenses, plus the departure that's shipping off of middle-class jobs,
manufacturing sector jobs, to the far corners of the earth in the service of the false gods of globalism, this is what is ailing America, and Trump realizes what is ailing America, and he's the only person that has come down the pike in years that has said that he one, understands the problem and two, has the wherewithal and the uh intention of doing something about it.
Well, i'll tell you something about Trump.
This general election is going to be insane.
Typically, the etiquette of the two campaigns during the presidential election is, you don't campaign during the other party's primary and, of course, you could maintain those rules of engagement in the past, because both candidates were working for the same master.
So it was easy to adhere to typical and traditional campaign etiquette.
If you are Romney versus Obama, Mcain versus Obama, Bush versus Kerry Bush versus Gore, you're all working for the same people.
But in in this case, with Trump, he campaigned the entire time extensively, I might add while Hillary was in session in Philadelphia.
And not only that he, he went after headlines like nothing i've ever seen.
Trump is so extraordinarily cool to me that there's just something about he, just shoots from the hip and he's always on target.
That's what's so good about him, and it's just.
You know, he harkens back, as we said, as you said Keith, at lunch yesterday to a more manly time he's.
He's basically the American president most like Andrew Jackson.
Andrew Jackson Is the past American president that most reminds me of Donald Trump.
Now, compare him to John McCain, who basically fired staffers for suggesting that Barack Obama might have some Muslim sympathy.
McCain did everything he could to lose that election and lose he did.
He was more interested in being politically correct than being president.
Ditto for Mitt Romney.
Now we finally got somebody that really wants to win for the people.
And it's good that McCain and Romney were so cucked because by being cucks, they gave rise to Trump and the Trump phenomenon.
I don't think Trump would have happened, really, one, without eight years of Obama, and two, without divine intervention.
And I mean that seriously.
I think the hand of God is in this whole campaign.
Well, I will tell you, this week, some of the things Trump has done just this week to steal some headlines from Hillary, and I don't think it was just to steal the headlines.
I think he certainly meant it.
I loved watching him put Katie Turre in her place.
I got a picture with Katie.
We talked at the Trump rally in Memphis.
See, that's the thing.
When anybody talks to me that the media hates, they get called on it.
When I talk to people that's part of the clown media, they always deafening.
Similarly, and the novelty of talking to Katie and getting a picture with Katie.
And Katie was actually very nice.
She even took my phone from me to make sure we got a good picture together.
Her ex-boyfriend, Keith Olbermann, listed me as one of the worst people in the world.
So when we were working together, the press pen in Memphis at the Trump rally, I couldn't help but go up and introduce myself to Katie and talk to her for a few minutes.
You should have gotten a copy of that picture and sent it to Keith Olman and say, hey, dude, I'm with your girlfriend.
Well, they're not together anymore.
But nevertheless, but he told Katie Turre Trump did this week to be quiet.
He knows she's covering for Hillary.
She wants to save Hillary.
And all of this media, all of this media, what Trump is doing to the media is just so delicious.
I can't stand it.
And then the whole thing about saying he hopes that Russia has Hillary's emails because we can't find them.
Our Justice Department can't find them.
Our government is too inept or is too much in the tank to list them.
And of course, the media went berserk, saying that was treason.
No, no.
Treason is committed on a daily basis in this country.
That was not.
I don't know how serious he was, but I certainly don't have pride in the middle.
I think he knows that if anybody's going to have them, it's not going to be anybody in a law enforcement capacity with the federal government, with the FBI.
And even if they had them, they wouldn't come out with them.
We got to take a break.
We'll come back on this point when we return.
Stay tuned.
Pursuing Liberty, using the Constitution as our guide.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
With news this hour from LibertyNewsDaily.com, I'm William Grigg.
When Tara Alexis Ford arrived at her Portland home very early on the morning of June 26th, she and her young children discovered an unidentified man waiting in her daughter's bedroom.
Ford grabbed a gun and shot the man, 59-year-old David Daniel McCrary, who is believed to have been suffering from mental illness.
Oregon law explicitly recognizes the right of an individual to use deadly force in dealing with a burglar.
Acting on that principle, a Portland grand jury has ruled that Ford's shooting was an act of justifiable homicide and cleared her of all potential criminal charges.
You are listening to LibertyNewsDaily.com.
In other news, for the first time, a featured primetime speaker at a national convention openly celebrated abortion.
On the night after featuring mothers of several young people who were killed by police, the Democratic National Convention delivered a speech by Ilse Hoag, president of the NARAL Pro-Choice America Group, who recounted her decision to have her unborn child killed.
I wanted a family, but it was the wrong time, Hoag declared.
I made the decision that was best for me to have an abortion and get compassionate care at a clinic in my own community.
That disclosure prompted a lengthy ovation from the audience.
This year's Democratic National Platform demands the repeal of the Hyde Amendment, which restricts the use of taxpayer funds for elective abortions.
That proposal was emphasized during a Tuesday night speech by Cecile Richards, head of Planned Parenthood.
If you want a win-win-win opportunity for patriots, think GiveMeLibertyFund.com.

All right, everybody, we're talking about some of the cool things that Trump did during Hillary's convention.
He told Katie Turrer, who is the beat reporter for NBC for Trump, to be quiet because she kept trying to interrupt during a press conference.
He said, I know you're trying to protect Hillary, but be quiet.
And we'll give Katie a little bit of a pass because she's good looking.
She was nice to me, and her dad became a woman.
And so we're going to sympathize with her.
Her dad was the helicopter pilot during the O.J. Simpson chase.
He's the one who filmed all that footage of the Bronco running down the freeway.
I believe his name was Bob Tour.
He had a Bruce Jenner operation.
Are you kidding me?
He's now Zoe Tour.
Oh, my goodness.
There must be something in the water out there around L.A. Anyway, but Katie doesn't live there.
Katie's a sweetheart as far as news personalities go, but she's definitely in the tank for Hillary.
And Trump put her in her place.
And then the whole Russian email thing.
Keith, did you take that seriously?
Him saying, I hope, Russia, if you're listening, get the emails and let us know what was in them because obviously we're not going to get them ourselves.
I'm 100% behind him on that because I don't know if the Russians have it, if Julian Assange has it, but somebody has it basically because Hillary Clinton put our national security at risk with her unauthorized email server.
What do you think about all the DNC WikiLeaks?
WikiLeaks.
The leaks by WikiLeaks.
There you go.
What do you think?
And obviously Assange had a hand in that, it appears.
What do you think about all of that?
So there was no doubt about it.
They were trying to rig the primary.
It reminds me of the scene in The Wizard of Oz where the Wizard of Oz says, don't pay any attention to that little man behind the screen.
Don't pay any attention to the substance of these leaked emails that show all sorts of skullduggery and underhanded cheating on the part of the DNC.
Let's focus on instead how they were obtained.
You know, this is a typical shell game played by the mainstream media.
The people aren't buying it.
Donald Trump can basically beat all of the mainstream media with one arm tied behind his back.
He's certainly doing it.
And he is triggering them to use the parlance of our times like none other.
And the whole thing about these Clinton emails, these Clinton emails, Richard Nixon got impeached for what?
Scrubbing 30 seconds of tape?
You're talking about 30 plus thousand highly sensitive and confidential emails that Hillary subjected to the world.
Let's go back to Watergate.
That's another thing.
What was Watergate about?
It was about the paranoid Richard Nixon spying on the McGovern campaign.
How much more important and how much more of an impeachable offense is it to allow not a break-in on some political adversary, but to allow our enemies throughout all the world,
many of whom are armed with nuclear weapons, to have top secret sensitive intel because you're trying to basically hide and dissemble from the American people what you're doing as Secretary of State.
This is, you know, what this shows, what is happening is that we've never seen a pair like this before, like the Clintons.
They are, they just have no integrity whatsoever.
And they are basically intent upon making money.
And they set up the Clinton Foundation so they could take money in from foreign governments, which they can't do for a reelection campaign according to federal election laws.
So they found a way around it.
And we're basically getting a foreign policy and a domestic policy from Hillary Clinton if she is elected that will be scripted by people like the Saudi Arabians.
They don't want us to become energy independent.
So how do they do this?
How do they keep us from becoming energy independent?
Well, Hillary gets on her stump and starts beating her chest about global warming.
So we can't develop our own fossil fuel resources.
We have to import them.
Who do we import them from?
The Saudis.
Well, what did the Saudis do?
They gave $25 million to the Clinton Foundation.
You think that's a coincidence, James?
No, I don't.
But see, all of the criminal corruption of the Clinton Foundation, of Bill and Hillary Clinton et al., it all gets brushed under the rug.
And then the media will manufacture controversies when it comes to people like us.
They will manufacture stories.
They will completely lie.
And I'm not just talking about taking things out of context.
I'm not talking about rhetorical hyperbole.
I am talking about absolutely fabricating facts and listing lies as facts.
That is the textbook definition of libel.
That's why I am engaged right now in a very highly contentious lawsuit against the major American newspaper, a daily.
And folks, we're not going to back down on that either.
We are fighting on multiple fronts right now.
It's like, well, I feel like my Confederate forebears.
We're outmanned and outsupplied, but we're not going to be out fought.
And we're fighting on multiple fronts.
But it's just incredible to be a part of this time and to be a soldier under this righteous banner and to go out and to be making a difference and to be fighting for our people and to be serving as your voice.
I am telling you folks, it makes my life worth it.
They said in Tale of Two Cities, it's the best of times and the worst of times.
And when you compare the fact that Richard Nixon was going to be impeached and then had to withdraw because of spying on the totally inept George McGovern campaign that lost the election, that the spying was about, 49 states to one.
Compare that with all of the secret, top secret information that the Russians, as Trump realized, probably had them.
So did every other hostile nation in the world and every friendly nation as well.
Everybody had access to those things.
Everybody, apparently, except our FBI and the watchdogs that we have here in America.
That's the point.
That was the sarcasm in Trump's comment.
He said, how is it that every Tom Dick and Harry and every third-rate hacker in other parts of the world has this information, but our watchdog agencies like the FBI doesn't?
Well, there was one more thing, Keith, that Trump did this week in addition to telling Katie Tor to shut up, addition to triggering the media with his comments on the Russian emails and did the Russia have them?
Please let us see them.
It's just violating the convention etiquettes that these campaigns had adhered to for so long.
He also said while watching the Democrats, he had never before in his life so badly wanted to punch people as he did in watching these Democrats.
He said there was one little guy in particular, and everybody believes he was talking about Michael Bloomberg and this.
He said he would punch him so hard, he'd never recover.
And of course, everybody's talking about how violent that is.
That's a tongue-in-cheek remark to trigger the media to steal headlines.
But you know what?
I kind of like it.
We're not for violence.
We're not for violence, but this is, Keith, used to, men could go and duke it out and settle the differences, and then they could be friends again.
But this harkens back again, as you mentioned, to a more manly time, and that's how men settle differences.
And honestly, watching some of the people there did elicit a visceral reaction.
What it reminds me of is the Davy Crockett King of the Wild Frontier movie that I loved and watched as a child, where Davy Crockett was sent out on some type of public relations tour by the Jackson administration so they could pass the Indian Removal Act.
And Davy Crockett comes back to Washington, D.C. just in the nick of time where they're filibustering the issue so it doesn't come to a vote.
So he comes in and his former commander, who is one of the right-hand men of Andrew Jackson, tells him, well, don't go in there.
You just don't understand how politics is done.
And then Davy Crockett looks at him and says, here's what I think of your type of politics.
And bam, clocks are right between the eyes.
See, this is what Trump reminds us of, people like Davy Crockett.
Well, here's the thing.
Imagine that.
Imagine a time that good.
You're talking about two of the greatest Americans to ever live, Andrew Jackson, probably the last great president, maybe James K. Polk, and then Davy Crockett.
Davy Crockett, the hero of the Alamo, the frontiersman, he was a congressman from Tennessee.
Andrew Jackson eventually became president.
Both were from Tennessee.
Both were war heroes, but they were very contentious political adversaries.
In fact, Jackson had something to do with Andrew, Andrew Jackson had something to do with David Crockett losing his congressional seat.
These two men were political adversaries, but they were both two of the greatest Americans to ever live.
Imagine having to go back to a time so good when you had to choose between David Crockett and Andrew Jackson.
You couldn't lose.
Now the choice is between does America survive at all, with perhaps with Trump, versus does America, as we knew it and loved it, end forever with Hillary Clinton?
That's the choice now.
Who is going to do mop-up work for Barack Obama?
What a, well, you know, talk about a Hyperion to a seder, as Shakespeare said in Hamlet.
Can you imagine going in the presidency from Andrew Jackson to Barack Obama and then Hillary Clinton?
Man, what a world.
Hang on, folks.
We're going to keep on trucking tonight.
So great to be back with you in our home studio and just to have an easy night of talking to you.
We'll be back.
Let's hang on and come back to the political sesh pool right after these messages here on the Liberty News Radio Network.

You can't be in a bad mood after hearing that one.
No, I mean, if that doesn't energize you, then you don't have a poll.
That's absolutely right.
Well, anyway, when we were at this lunch yesterday, I was marveling to Keith during the last break.
Everything we've covered so far in the program tonight, save that first segment where we kind of went off the rails and talked about the British invasion for 10 minutes, was items that we talked about discussing at lunch yesterday.
And we still got so much more to cover, all of it important.
I would like to tell you, ladies and gentlemen, that I have pinned a rather long report, fully illustrated, with about a dozen pictures.
It's entitled James Edwards attends the Republican National Convention.
It documents the trip that I shared with Sam Bushman, Kirk Crosby, and Matt the Copperhead.
James Edwards attends the Republican National Convention.
It's a full report.
It's a must-read and must-see when you talk about some of the people we had pictures with and were able to talk to.
Anyway, it's behind the scenes.
You'll know what I did, and you'll know what I know if you read that article.
And it's available tonight at thepoliticalspool.org.
But that was hardly the only interesting article that we posted this week to the website.
Donald Trump in Cleveland, The Rise of Nationalism and Populism by Kevin McDonald.
The GOP Convention, Race, Identity, and Power by Gregory Hood for American Renaissance.
It's Trump or Never from one of my very favorite websites, Faith and Heritage.
Donald Trump's Bad Language by Richard Spencer.
Pat Buchanan, Ted Cruz, and the Trump Takeover.
Pat has another equally good article.
All of his articles, I'm telling you, the last year and a half.
Solid gold.
And they are.
He has another article, Divided and We Stand, Cleveland versus Philadelphia.
We're going to post that to thepoliticalassesspool.org on Monday.
But anyway.
I wish we could get Ann Coulter to let us run her articles too because they're invariably good, particularly on these issues, too.
But, you know, basically, you can't go wrong with either Pat Buchanan or Ann Coulter or Kevin McDonald or what they have at Amerin and Richard Spencer.
We've got so much talent in the bank now.
this is the thing i mean i don't the thing about this movement is now there is so much diversity i You have men, leaders with different temperaments, different styles, different ways of doing business and going about getting the work done.
But ultimately, it's all being pulled in the same direction.
And all first-rate intellects.
Well, that's right.
And successful and effective.
But that was just a sampling of some of the things that have been posted to thepoliticalspool.org since our last show.
Keith, I know you've read each of these articles as I have.
Any of those articles or any excerpts from those articles stand out to you now?
Oh, yeah.
Well, you know, Greg Hood's article in particular.
Break them down if you can while staying close to your point.
Well, let me just show you this.
This is the lead-in on Greg Hood's article, the GLP Convention, Race, Identity, and Power.
Call it a universal rule of politics.
When a movement is obsessed with means rather than ends, it's impotent and dying.
For decades, the conservative movement and the Republican Party have been obsessed with the forms through which power is exercised rather than what it's actually used for.
We're all familiar with the slogans and abstractions, limited government, constitutionalism, and a vaguely defined freedom.
Not surprisingly, the more these words were invoked, the less freedom Americans enjoyed, and the further away conservatives move from their ostensible goals.
Well, that's a very powerful beginning for a great article, and he's basically telling us what I mentioned earlier in this broadcast, which is that we're moving the Republican Party and the Conservative Party towards nationalism and nationalism based on the race of the majority, which happens to be white in America.
I will tell you this, a writer for the Huffington Post, he's a freelancer.
I really don't want to get into this too much because it's so despicable.
But the tone has gone from one of mocking to despair, I think.
And he wrote in his column, and I think he gives us too much credit, but nevertheless, he wrote it, that the Republican, we are not moving towards the Republican Party.
The Republican Party is moving towards us via Trump.
Well, I'll agree with that.
Look, that's what's happening.
Basically, Trump is instinctively saying all the things we are without drawing the final conclusion that we've drawn from it.
And that will come, folks.
Have no doubt about it.
But we're moving the right direction finally after 50 years of wandering.
You know, the Israelites wandered in the wilderness for, what, 30 years, 40 years?
How long have we wandered in since 1865?
Well, arguably since 1865, but definitely since 1954.
So that would be, what, 68 years?
That's right.
You know, it's just, it's incredible, or 62 years.
This is what the triumph of liberalism has done.
And now people are beginning to sense what liberalism's endgame is.
And basically, it's going to destroy our nations and destroy Europe and the basis for the prosperity of both places, which is the genius of white people.
This is it.
The difference between the candidates isn't about tax cuts.
It's not about which one pretends to be pro-life and which one is obviously not pro-life.
And that was the thing with Bush.
What does Bush ever do for Christians?
Nothing.
And then we talked about this yesterday.
Donald Trump may not be a fundamentalist born-again Christian as we know it, but he will be better for Christians than anything that's happened in presidents or politics going back many, many, many generations.
And so, well, with that, I lost my train of thought, but you see that.
He'll actually do things and get laws passed that will allow fundamentalist churches to speak their minds without fear of losing their tax exemption.
That's one thing, for example.
What has George Bush done?
Nothing.
Basically, George H.W. Bush was the first one to bring this globalist order out of the closet.
He was the one who said that, talked about the New World Order, the New World Order that America was going to lead.
And this is when people like Charles Krauthammer said this surrender of sovereignty that this would involve is not as alarming as you might think.
And Pat Buchanan said, well, to some of us, it is as alarming as it sounds.
So that's what, you know, we finally got someone who's basically going to take us down another set of railroad tracks as a nation.
The only person, you know, basically we've had tweedle dee and tweedle dumb, as George Wallace said, with the Republicans and the Democrats since Ronald Reagan until now.
All right, we only have a couple of minutes left this hour.
Thought we had another segment, but as always, when we get on the radio airwaves, it goes by far too quickly, and we, in fact, lose time.
I just watched Back to the Future with my daughter last night.
It was her first time to see it.
If not my all-time favorite movie, it's certainly up there.
And so, time is certainly a finite commodity.
But we only have a couple of minutes left this segment, so I will end this hour with this, and then Keith and I will still be with you for the entire third hour.
We're going to continue talking about the conventions and what's going on as this campaign pivots to the general election.
But, folks, I hope you're enjoying the show tonight.
I hope you enjoyed every Saturday night.
I hope you enjoy how good we're sounding tonight, thanks to the investments we've made in the new equipment.
I hope you will understand that it was not broken in vain, but I hope that you will also understand, in all seriousness, that costs to go to Cleveland and broadcast from the Republican National Convention were prohibitive.
We did not have the money to go.
It was above and beyond our budget that we allocate each quarter, but we also couldn't afford not to go for obvious reasons.
And I will remind you that I am engaged in a bitter lawsuit that is also costly.
So, we have our quarterly fundraising drives that bring in resources to satisfy our normal operating budget.
But in this last month, we have had to invest in upgrades to our equipment, which were absolutely necessary.
We've had to fund our excursion to Cleveland, and we have had to invest in the costs of an ongoing litigation where we are the plaintiffs and not the defendants.
All of that adds up for a show that is operated on a shoestring.
Ladies and gentlemen, if you appreciate where we stand right now, if you appreciate the fact that this radio program and your hosting staff, Keith Alexander, myself, and the rest, are major players in this election, according to the media.
The media has minted us so.
And for all of the other reasons I just mentioned, our next regularly scheduled quarterly fundraising drive does not kick off until September 1st.
And we're not going to hasten that day.
I can only call on you so often, and I hesitate to draw from the well so often, but I will tell you that the trip to Cleveland and the costs associated with that, the lawsuit that is still ongoing, and the equipment upgrades that we had to do.
We absolutely had to do it.
And who knows, James?
You know, if they keep lying about you, there may be other lawsuits.
You know, they tell the most outrageous lies in the world about us, and they expect us to sit back and do nothing.
Well, we're not setting back.
A man doesn't sit back, and we're men here.
But I will tell you this: with seconds remaining in this hour, folks, we need your help.
It's above and beyond the regularly quarterly fundraising drives.
We need your help.
Go to thepoliticalaccesspool.org now, if you can, before we come back at the top of the third hour and contribute whatever we can.
This show is sustained on contributions of $25, $50, $100.
These are trying times, ladies and gentlemen.
And we need it.
And no one is doing more than us right now.
No one is making more news than us without retreat, surrender, or apologies.
And that is because of two things, God's grace and your good humor, ladies and gentlemen.
But I'm telling you, we're in a financial pinch right now because of the three items that I just mentioned.
Nobody here draws a salary.
Nobody draws a salary.
Yeah, we're not paying salary with your contributions.
We're paying the operating budget, the airtime expenses, the airtime fees, the trip to Cleveland, the upgrades to our equipment that we had to have to broadcast clearly, and the litigation.
So, folks, we need you.
We need you.
I'm asking you.
I'm asking you to please go to thepoliticalspool.org and donate what you can tonight.
Anybody who donates $100 or more before August 1st, we're going to reopen the DVD offer.
You'll get my speech from Amran, $100 or more.
Please donate tonight if you can.
And we'll be back with the third hour, and we'll get on with business as usual.
Stay tuned, folks.
The political cesspool is in the can, but don't go away.
