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.
Well, it felt unusual driving out to the radio station tonight in broad daylight, but that's what happens when daylight savings time either ends or begins.
I don't know what exactly happened this week, but one of the two.
The one that makes the days longer, that happened.
March 18th, we're live tonight.
March 18th, how did that happen?
It'll be Christmas before we know it.
But we're here in spring, summer, winter, fall, like a postman.
Neither rain nor snow nor gloom of night will keep us from making our appointed rounds here on the radio with you every weekend.
Live, unrehearsed, uncensored.
James Edwards and Keith Alexander in the political cesspool with you.
Busy show tonight.
And I mean it.
It's a busy show.
It's been a busy week.
So we're going to break down all of the media manufactured outrage being directed at Representative Steve King out of Iowa this week.
We're going to welcome back a special guest, Paul Kersey, author of the book, The Truth About Selma.
If you didn't know it, the 52nd anniversary of the march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma took place just a few days ago, and there was gunfire.
Yes, there was.
You would expect that in a 80% black city, and certainly there was.
We're going to talk to him about the book, about the recent manifestations of diversity in Selma, and a lot more.
Don't forget that book can be yours if you contribute $100 or more before the end of the month.
It is our incentive for the first quarter fundraising drive and available only to TPC donors.
Your copy will be autographed by the author himself, Mr. Kersey, who will be with us at the second hour.
But first, let's ask Keith how he's doing.
Keith, how are you?
I'm doing great, my friend.
Walking in the light and doing right, as we say here in the South.
I heard that.
We're definitely walking in the light tonight.
Keith likes it.
Keith always complains that there's not enough light in our studio.
But now with that sun, it looks like broad daylight coming through the windows, doesn't it, buddy?
It does.
And it is.
Actually, this is a beautiful, cloudless sky out there.
It snowed.
It had been about 80 degrees for a month in Memphis.
The winter got cut short.
Then it snowed in March.
Well, it snowed, what, like last Wednesday, or just a few days ago.
Well, when I left the studio last Saturday night, it had huge snowflakes falling.
It had already been a week.
You're right.
It wasn't Wednesday.
It was last Saturday.
But last Saturday, yes, yes.
It was last Saturday.
It was snowing when we left the station, and then tonight it's...
I made a U-turn to come back here and tell James.
That's right, but he had left before I did, and he came back and said, hey, look, you're not going to believe it.
It's snowing.
And sure enough, it was snowing.
And now a week later, it's sunny and it is hot.
Very warm.
Yeah, there is an echo in my mic.
Mr. Producer's telling me that, but I'm actually right on it.
I've got my lip to the windscreen.
You never know about the equipment around here at 1600, but we'll see what happens during the break.
Anyway, getting back to business, there was a story in the Washington Post this week.
Maybe you got it.
They read it.
Well, you shouldn't read it.
You shouldn't be reading that smut.
But Donald Trump, Steve King, and some very happy white nationalists.
Well, you already know with the headline like that who's going to be in that story.
And so we were.
But I'll read it for you, and then we'll let Keith break it down.
How to account for President Trump's new thing for old Hickory?
Trump flew to Nashville on Wednesday.
This was this past Wednesday.
Maybe that's why I thought it snowed on Wednesday.
Trump was in Nashville on Wednesday afternoon to visit the tomb of Andrew Jackson, the Washington Post tells us, the first of Trump's predecessors he chose to honor in celebration of Jackson's 250th birthday.
He placed a wreath, pronounced himself a big fan, and asserted that he had much in common with Jackson.
This followed Trump's decision in January to move a portrait of Jackson into the Oval Office, his position during the campaign against replacing Jackson on the $20 bill in favor of Harriet Tubman, and frequent attempts by top Trump strategist Steve Bannett to liken Trump to Jackson.
Most Americans probably don't care much about the homage to the hero of New Orleans and the populist father of the Democratic Party.
But one group sees Jackson worship as an important sign from the president.
The same people Representative Steve King has been speaking to lately when he talks about quote-unquote someone else's babies.
By accident or design, Trump is delighting the white nationalists.
The fact that he put up a portrait of Andrew Jackson in the Oval Office should have sent a huge signal, white nationalist James Edwards said on his radio show, Political Cesspool.
The Washington Post continues, this powerful fear of racial diversity explains why King, always a provocateur, feels safe being more overtly racist.
On Sunday, tweeting his approval of far-right Dutch politician Garrett Fielders, King wrote, we can't restore our civilization with someone else's babies.
Just a little bit more from the Washington Post.
He defended his remarks on CNN on Monday, calling Western civilization a superior culture.
Another thing King has in common with Trump, both men's actions help embolden racists.
David Duke, the former Klan leader this week, celebrated King's babies' remarks.
Richard Spencer of the White Nationalist National Policy Institute has praised Trump for, among other things, his border walled plans and the choice of a white Protestant for the Supreme Court.
Such thinking wasn't unusual then.
A continuing source of white nationalists' happiness is Trump's fascination with Jackson, the story concludes, who forcibly relocated Indians from the South.
Here's a quote from Jackson.
Established in the midst of another and a superior race, and without appreciation of the causes of their inferiority or seeking to control them, they must necessarily yield to the force of circumstances and ere long disappear.
President Jackson told Congress in 1833, referring to the Indians.
We're in need of some more trouts of tears about now, Andrew England wrote on the Daily Stormer, a neo-Nazi website.
Okay, so basically, what was the moral of that story?
Trump goes and pays respects in Nashville on the 250th birthday of one of the greatest, if not the greatest president in American history.
And this is how the Washington Post interprets it.
What were they trying to convey to their ever-dying readership team?
Well, it's obvious that anybody that was a white male Protestant president, which is the vast majority of them throughout the history of America, is irredeemably tainted with racism in their eyes.
And they think we're the weirdos.
We're the far out people to think highly of Andrew Jackson.
They are the weirdos, my friend.
The fact that they want to lionize a totally mediocre, probably a sociopath, a deeply neurotic individual like Harriet Tubman, and replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill with a Harriet Tubman shows you just how far out in left field the liberal elite in this nation are.
And they got an object lesson in this in the last presidential election.
I think that Trump recognizing his affinity for the policies and the mindset of Andrew Jackson shows incredible insight and self-awareness on his part.
He is the modern reincarnation of Andrew Jackson.
Andrew Jackson was a populist, a man of the people, an enemy of the elite, an enemy of big government, an enemy of globalism, just like Donald Trump is.
Donald Trump, if he was looking out in the whole breadth of American history at the presidency and trying to find one person he was most like, he couldn't have done much better than to pick Andrew Jackson.
Andrew Jackson is his historical predecessor.
All right, we're going to do one more segment on this story.
Trump's visit to Nashville is the story and then this interpretation of it by the Washington Post.
But it's always good to be mentioned by the Washington Post.
If you're going to be mentioned by a fake newspaper, let it be the biggest fake newspaper, I say.
We'll be back right after this.
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 believe it or not, now I have a 29 out of 32 and improving vigor score.
You say, Sam, what on earth is this scientific vigor score, huh?
My response is you got to take the free test available now.
Get a hold of Kurt Crosby to learn about it.

Okay, so first story out of the gates this evening is Trump's visit to Nashville a couple of days ago.
People asked me, I got a lot of emails.
Did you go see Trump in Nashville?
Did you go to Nashville?
No, I got a lot of stuff going on family-wise right now.
I didn't get a chance to go to Nashville.
And also, even if I did have the chance to go to Nashville, I don't know if I would have.
Two reasons.
I've been to see Trump twice in the last 12 months.
The first time we were broadcasting live from inside the press pool at a rally in Memphis.
The second time was just a few weeks ago.
I was sitting front row at the inauguration.
Really, after having those two experiences, it's all downhill from there.
I mean, what could I possibly have done in Nashville that would have matched that unless he took me up for a spin on Air Force One or something like that?
But once you reach the top, you don't need to climb anymore as far as that goes.
Now, we are in the news with Trump this week as a result of his respects paid to Andrew Jackson, great man, great southerner, great soldier, great president.
And the story in the Washington Post was what we were covering in the previous segment.
That story actually made national news.
Now, it made national news, obviously, by just being in the Washington Post.
But you know how a lot of these local papers do, Keith.
They really just pick up stories written by the New York Times and Washington Post and put it in their paper.
Yeah, it's a cut and paste job.
And so it was.
And it was all across the country.
Maybe not in every market, but I have two examples for you.
The Salt Lake City Tribune in Salt Lake City, Utah ran the same story, although the title was changed.
Listen to this.
So it's the exact same story, word for word.
In the Washington Post, it appeared as Donald Trump, Steve King, and some very happy white nationalists.
That's how it appeared in the Washington Post.
In the Salt Lake City Tribune, the title of the story, exact same story, no more, no less, racists rejoice as Trump embraces Old Hickory.
And then in the Sioux City, that's Sioux City, Iowa, I guess.
Like the Indian tribe, Sioux.
That's right.
Sioux City.
I-O-U-S. Sioux City, Iowa.
That's right.
The title of the article in Sioux City was, well, I'd have to find it.
But it incorporated the word white supremacists.
So anyway, in the headline, same story in three different newspapers, white nationalists, racists, and white supremacists were all in play.
At least they didn't call you the head of the Ku Klux Klan like the Detroit Free Press or the Detroit News.
The Detroit News.
Yeah, that's right.
That we have a lawsuit about.
But I tell you, it really is uncanny that Trump has picked up on this.
Maybe he has somebody listening to our show or maybe he's listening to it himself because we've been on that theme basically since he started running that he was the reincarnation of Andrew Jackson.
And we were talking about this at lunch this week, James.
I really think that Trump could do much worse than to try to channel the spirits of Tennessee's three presidents.
Elaborate on this a little bit because you brought up a good point.
Well, who were those three presidents?
First, there was old Hickory, the first one, Andrew Jackson.
Most people are fairly familiar, most educated people, most educated Americans are fairly familiar with Andrew Jackson.
He was old Hickory.
Now, the second one was young Hickory, James K. Polk, James Knox Polk, one-term president who accomplished everything that he set out to accomplish in his first term.
He was around for the end of the National Bank, the central bank, the U.S. Bank.
It happened just a couple of days before he took office in the term of John Tyler, his predecessor.
But basically, it was because the handwriting was on the wall that he was going to end it, that it did end.
That's one thing.
The other thing was he settled the boundary with Canada in the West, 54-40 or fight.
Remember that?
That was something we learned in history class when I was a kid coming along.
He set it where it is today, which was a great advantage over what the British wanted it to be.
And he also settled the boundary with Mexico.
And just thrown in for good measure, he doubled the size of the United States.
He was the embodiment of manifest destiny for America, that America was going to stretch from sea to shining sea.
That was the work of James K. Polk.
So that's the second one, young Hickory.
Then the third one, and he may be the most pertinent to Trump's circumstances, is Andrew Johnson.
He was a Republican, the vice president of Lincoln.
He was from the Hill Country.
He was no fan of the moonlight and Magnolia's version of the South or slavery.
But when he ascended to the presidency and he saw what the Radical Republicans had in store, he had enough common sense to know that it would be disastrous to run the government the way that the Radical Republicans wanted it to be run.
He basically threw himself into the breach like Horatio at the bridge and stopped the Radical Republicans from moving forward with their radical reconstruction proposals.
And what it earned him was impeachment.
He was subjected to an impeachment trial.
He stood his ground, towed the mark, won by one single vote, and basically thwarted a disastrous Reconstruction plan that people like Thaddeus Stevens and Charles Sumner had in mind.
You know, they may really have started trying ex-Confederates for treason and whatnot had it not been for Andrew Johnson.
So even a traitor to his people and his nation like Andrew Johnson can have a silver lining.
Well, let me tell you, if he's a Tennessean, he's got a reservoir of common sense, and he also is a type of courageous man that will stick to his guns.
He's going to do like Davy Crockett, whose life motto was, I leave these words for others when I'm dead.
Be always sure you're right, then go ahead.
That's what Andrew Johnson did.
And I guarantee you, Donald Trump will be put to the test.
He's going to go through the same trials and travails as Andrew Johnson.
Mark it down.
Write it on the wall.
All right.
So, yes, you're right.
In short, Donald Trump would do well to channel from the three presidents who have come from the state of Tennessee.
Andrew Jackson, of course, being the one he honored in Nashville earlier this week.
We were in the Washington Post.
Basically, the not so subtle or implicit message in this story is Trump is a bad guy, and he went to honor a bad guy.
And if you think highly of either Donald Trump or Andrew Jackson, you must be like these people who they quoted, James Edwards, David Duke, Richard Spencer.
He's not burning incense at that paragon of moral purity and intellect, Harriet Tubman or Frederick Douglass or any of the heroes of the left, Martin Luther King.
And if he did, he still wouldn't curry any favor with the left.
They would just say he's just trying to pander or it's not enough or it's insincere.
He wouldn't gain anything from doing that, nor should he even try.
But what I'm saying is, once again, I would rather be in the company of David Duke and Richard Spencer than the jackass who wrote this article any day of the week.
I can tell you.
Dana Milbank.
That's a man.
Any man named Dana, you got to watch out for.
That's right.
That's just for starters.
I think that being that type of man is a requirement for writing for the Washington Post.
Well, because of Dana, we're back in the news, and we like to be right there where the action is.
And we always are there, it seems.
But it's interesting that that got picked up and syndicated in newspapers across the country.
Again, the title in Salt Lake City, Racists Rejoice as Trump Embraces Old Hickory.
I'm proud to be one of those racists, so-called.
And then I did find the headline for the Sioux City, Iowa article.
Same article, different headline.
You wouldn't think that they'd be able to change the title of the story, but I guess whatever.
It is the fake news media.
By accident or design, Trump delights white supremacists.
So there it was in Sioux City.
Well, it is, isn't it wonderful?
Whenever they think of a white supremacist or racist, who's the first person that comes to their mind?
James Edwards.
Well, I'm only here because of you, Keith.
The Wizard of Oz, the man behind the curtain keeping us going and putting some talent into the program.
But listen, everybody needs, maybe I'm the moon to our universe, and I'll take the meteors so people like Eddie and Keith can shine and star.
But anyway, we're going to shift gears, talk about Steve King.
Hey, we're in the trenches with King and Trump and Andrew Jackson.
That's company out about mind keeping.
That's Martin Fox, hold a bean.
Proclaiming liberty across the land.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
With news this hour from LibertyNewsDaily.com, I'm William Grigg.
In a splenetic outburst on the Senate floor that was unprecedented even by his standards, Arizona Republican Senator John McCain accused colleague Rand Paul of Kentucky of being an agent of the Russian government.
McCain's harangue was provoked by Paul's objection to a proposal that Montenegro, a small former province of Yugoslavia, be brought into the NATO alliance.
The senator from Kentucky is now working for Vladimir Putin, snarled McCain, offering no evidence to substantiate that accusation and violating Senate rules of comedy in doing so.
Asked about McCain's calumny on MSNBC's Morning Joe program, Paul stated that McCain makes a really, really strong case for term limits.
I think maybe he's passed his prime.
I think maybe he's gotten a little bit unhinged.
We currently have combat troops in about six nations, Senator Paul pointed out.
We have troops actively stationed in a couple dozen others.
We have a $20 trillion debt.
Paul referred to an article he had read in which a photograph of McCain's glowering face, an icon called an angry McCain, was placed on every country where the senator has urged active military deployments.
If you put an angry McCain on the globe on the map where he wants to send troops, it's virtually everywhere, Paul recalled.
So his foreign policy is something that would greatly endanger the United States, greatly overextend us.
There has to be the thought as to whether it's in our national interest to pledge to get involved in war if Montenegro has an altercation with anyone.

All right.
Well, during the commercial break, Keith and I went up to the green room here at the station and got some tea.
Not much more southern than sweet tea.
You know, I love everything about the South, Keith.
I love the culture.
I love the people.
I love the accent.
I love the cuisine.
I sure do.
Cat-fried catfish, barbecue, sweet tea.
Oh, everything about it.
I love our history.
James's two favorite vegetables are hush puppies and french fries.
You got that right.
You've eaten with me enough to know.
But for some reason, I just started thinking about my grandmother, one of the dearest, sweetest, godliest people I ever knew.
I loved her as much as any human can possibly love another.
But for some reason, I was thinking about when I used to get switched.
You know, I gave a switch in when I would be in trouble.
And I'm sure it was well-deserved.
We had a dogwood tree, and they made some really good switches in that.
But she was a cotton picker.
There are actually some southerners that used to pick their own cotton, and we were part of it, or at least my grandparents' generation were.
And anyway, it's a different language for rural Southerners.
They came from rural Mississippi, came to Memphis, had my parents.
My parents were first-generation Tennesseans.
Then my parents met, and of course had me.
But my father's side of the family tree was from Corinth, Mississippi.
A great Civil War battle happened there.
And then my mother's side was from Pontotoc, Mississippi, both in northwestern Mississippi.
Northeastern, actually.
Northeastern, yes, you're correct.
Northeastern, you are correct.
Anyway, it's a different language.
I'm going to fact check James.
Different language, though.
When she would want to switch me, she wouldn't say, come over here.
She would say, come over here.
Have you ever heard her say that?
David, love it, love it.
Back to the story, though.
So we were talking about Trump in, that was a total aside and departure.
We had not intended to get into that.
But we were talking about Trump going to Nashville.
And by the way, you know, Trump caught a lot of hell for putting up the portrait of Andrew Jackson right after he was inaugurated.
And so he had to know that when he came to Nashville, it was going to trigger the media to come to Nashville.
He didn't all of a sudden decide to come to Nashville on the 250th birthday of Andrew Jackson.
That was obviously something that took a lot of planning.
And he knew by coming there, laying a, there's a beautiful picture.
We'll put it up on our website next week, laying a wreath on the grave of Andrew Jackson, saluting Andrew Jackson, going to Jackson's home and grave, which, by the way, the last two times I was there, last time was with Sam Bushman, the time before that was with Pat Buchanan.
Every time I go to the Hermitage, I do it right too, I can tell you that.
But he knew that that was going to trigger the press, and he still did it.
He knows what he's doing.
He's listening to us.
I remember a couple of weeks ago, we said he's talking about everything he's going to do for the blacks in America, what he's going to do for the Jews in Israel.
He needs to start telling us what he's going to do for the white Gentile Southerners that were the core of his support, the first people on board, the people that started his momentum towards the White House by allowing him to win all those Super Tuesday nominating conventions here in the South, for the states in the South.
And sure enough, what's he doing?
He now knows that what we've been saying, that he's in enemy territory if he's in D.C. or in New York City.
So consequently, at every opportunity to restore his soul and to recharge his batteries, he comes down here into Red State America, particularly the South.
That's right.
In Melbourne, Florida, he gave a rally, now Nashville, Tennessee.
And it's, you know, he knows where his friends are.
And, you know, thank goodness he does.
Well, that's right.
Now, he didn't tell us explicitly what he's going to do for whites, but I guess we could call that a signaling by going and honoring the great man.
And furthermore, he has not said anything specifically about this, but it's obvious that what he's doing is trying to back off of changing the $20 bill and removing Andrew Jackson off of it and putting Harriet Tubman, who looks like a combination between Coretta Scott King and King Kong on the thing.
Well, he did say in the campaign that if he got elected, Jackson would stay, but I haven't heard anything since then.
But surely he will.
But we've got to move to Steve King, and we're going to run out of time this hour.
Steve King was in hot water this week, and Richard Spencer did a video on this a couple of days ago.
He breaks it down pretty succinctly in about four minutes.
So we'll let Richard set the table and then Keith and I will offer commentary on the Steve King media manufacturer controversy.
Here he is.
Hello, everyone.
Well, I would be remiss if I did not react to Representative Steve King's recent statements on civilization and the West and Islam and so on.
Before I react, let me just read out the offending tweet.
It was from this morning, and he said, Wilders, that is Garrett Wilders, understands that culture and demographics are our destiny.
We can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies.
Very true words, words that were spoken from the heart and words that are going to be controversial precisely because they are true and because they are powerful.
You know, I have been one who is very skeptical of a lot of these, you know, far-right conservatives in the United States, because being far-right usually means that you believe that we should engage in all sorts of stupid wars in the Middle East and that we should spread capitalism and American individualism around the globe and you agree with the religious right on everything and all that kind of stuff.
I'm very skeptical of all those people.
And at one point, I might have counted Steve King among those phony conservatives.
But today, I don't, because what he said is true.
What he said is nationalism of a real sort, not the phony nationalism of flag waving and putting on bumper stickers on your car about how much you love freedom and all that kind of stuff.
No, this is nationalism in the root, in the sense of the root of that word nationalism, nation, natio, it means to be born.
Nationalism is about being part of a family, an extended family that is the nation.
It also reminded me of a very famous quotation from Samuel Francis.
It's from the mid-90s, and he actually said this at a speech at an American Renaissance conference.
He said, the civilization that we as whites created in Europe and America could not have developed apart from the genetic endowments of the creating people.
Nor is there any reason to believe that the civilization can be successfully transmitted to a different people.
Now, again, very well written, of course, it's Sam Francis, but the idea is actually quite simple.
Indeed, if you say something like, the civilization of Native Americans or Indians is theirs.
It belongs to their race, their extended family, and it simply can't be transmitted to other peoples.
I doubt anyone, right or left, would really disagree with you if you said that.
Richard Spencer can't put on a headdress and become a Native American or an Indian.
I simply can't because that is theirs.
But when it comes to Western civilization, we seem to have different ideas.
Whether you're on the left or the right, many people seem to imagine that we could just find a black African and dress him up in a Harris tweed vest or give him a pipe or some snuff and maybe a bowler cap and he'll become an Englishman or something like that.
Or in another way, like the neocons, we describe Western civilization in this totally abstract term where it's some vague ideas about individualism and political institutions like democracy and so on.
Steve King is not doing that.
Steve King is getting at a root nationalism, a nationalism in a real sense of the word.
And I'm very proud of him for doing that.
One thing I would tell Steve King, just don't cuck.
What you said is true.
You spoke or tweeted from the heart.
Don't apologize.
If you apologize, they're not going to really forgive you.
They're not going to like you if you apologize.
Just speak the truth no matter what the consequence is.
People who do that are people that are ultimately admired.
So anyway, that's all I need to say about this.
If this is a signal that conservatives are moving in the right direction under Trump, that they're getting at something real, that I am very happy.
Anyway, but again, Steve, don't cuck.
The people of Iowa won't appreciate it if you cuck.
All right, signing off.
Talk to you later.
All right.
Thank you, Richard.
So that was Richard Spencer's take.
He pretty much tells you exactly what started this whole hullabaloo.
But the fact of the matter is, Steve King is right.
He's obviously right.
It's not even debatable that he's right.
You cannot maintain Western civilization with, as he put it, someone else's babies.
I'd even go further.
I would say that our religion is the true faith because it is the religion of white people.
And it's not that white people are supreme or better.
It's that God in his providence chose us.
We're truly the chosen people.
The idea that the Jews who basically put our God to death and have been the first and the most adamant and the most consistent enemies of our faith are the chosen people is ridiculous.
We'll get back to all of this after these words from our sponsor.
Richard told you the story.
We're going to offer our opinion, analysis, commentary on the Steve King situation in this next segment.
Then at the top of the second hour, Paul Kersey joins us.
He's going to tell us the truth about Selma.
I guess there's a myth about Selma too, and we'll get into that.
All coming up tonight on TPC.
Lots to come.
Thank you.

So we're talking about Steve King now, the Republican representative in the Congress out of Iowa.
And he tweeted earlier this week, builders, that being Garrett Builders, understands that culture and demographics are our destiny.
That right there, it's so honest.
It's so common sense.
But for Congressman to say that it's almost revolutionary.
He said that culture and demographics are our destiny.
We can't restore our civilization with someone else's babies.
And then, of course, the media melted down.
Well, that's because the Jewish maestros of our culture and our media have gone to great lengths to craft an opposite media narrative, which is that we are a proposition nation.
He started to touch on this, that basically anybody that believes in one man, one vote, or supports trial by jury and things like this can become just as good an American as Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, whatever.
And of course, that's absurd.
Just like our religion is seen by people throughout the world as the white man's religion, also America is the quintessential white melting pot nation of the world.
And we're seen as a white nation.
White nations are the nations that everyone else wants to flock to because that's the only way that most non-whites can participate in a first world lifestyle.
Now, the proposition nation, baloney, is a Jewish invention, pure and simple.
It is the cornerstone of neoconservatism.
That wasn't mentioned by Richard, but I'll mention it for him.
Consequently, that's why neoconservatism is what we say it is all the time, not conservative at all.
It is a variety of liberalism because everything that comes from Jewish power and influence is liberalism of one type or another, even when it's disguised as conservatism.
Now, real conservatism is just as we say it is at the top of every show.
We tout ourselves as the South's foremost populist conservative radio program.
Conservatism is populist, it's nationalist, it's anti-elitist, it's anti-globalist.
That's true conservatism.
And that's what we represent here.
We also represent proudly the Christian faith.
The Christian faith would not have been the great success that it was.
It would not have been able to turn back the Muslims and all other religious competitors at the gates at Tours, at the Battle of Vienna, at the Battle of Lepanto, and likewise other locales throughout history, had it not, and it would not have evangelized and become the largest religion in the world as it was.
It's maybe been overtaken by Muslim or Islam now, but I don't think it has, if it had not been for the genius of the white race.
Think about this for a moment.
Let's say that sub-Saharan Africa, rather than Europe, had become Christendom.
Had that happened, do you think that people would be flocking to become Christians?
Do you think that Christian missionaries would encounter success throughout the planet the way that they have?
Do you think that the sub-Saharan Christians would have built Notre Dame Cathedral or St. Paul's Cathedral or would have come up with hymns by Mozart and Brahms and Hendel and people like this, great works of genius architecturally and literarily and in terms of music and art?
Of course not.
Steve Scalise, Steve King is channeling something very important and very truthful and something that desperately needs to be said in today's America and today's West.
We need a sure heaping helping of this type of common sense because people aren't getting it if they tune into NBC, ABC, CBS or watch Hollywood movies or any of this nowadays.
You get just the opposite.
And as a result, we're not evolving.
We're devolving as a people and as a world because we don't have the right people in charge.
Well, you bring up a good point.
And it all matters.
Faith matters, race matters, culture matters.
And of course, through a person's race and his religion, you get a culture.
And it's hard to separate what part of the pie is culture, what part of its race, what part of it is your faith.
Certainly it all blends in together at some point.
I think it was God's providence to choose Europe as Christmas.
Well, it's even in the Bible.
And I wrote about this.
If you read the article, you can Google it.
It's titled My Journey.
And I wrote it for faithandheritage.com.
You can just Google My Journey, James Edwards, Faith and Heritage.
Even in the Bible, one of the disciples was going to take the gospel to Asia, and God sent him to Europe instead, to Greece.
And then from there, of course, it went out through divine intervention.
The hand of God is in it.
But back to Steve King, and you're right, though, but race matters, religion matters.
If all of the white Christian Americans were replaced by, let's just say, the babies of Muslims, you can forget all of the principles that made this country great.
If the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, all that's gone.
We've become the new Yemen.
Yeah, exactly.
So Steve King is right.
You can't maintain Western civilization with someone else's babies.
And that's an example.
If you replace all of the white Americans with Muslims, well, everything that made this country great is gone.
Now, he doubled down on that.
He said when asked about it, hey, I'm a defender of Western civilization.
I want to apologize for it.
He did say it had more to do with culture than race, and he's wrong about that.
Well, not entirely wrong about that, but certainly you can't discount the racial factor that that is playing.
There are certain things that you can't say yet that are nonetheless.
But he's still right.
It is a culture, a unique culture that our people have.
Western people have.
Western people are white.
So again, let me tell you another example.
As a lawyer, I'm very acutely aware of this.
Western institutions, governmental institutions like trial by jury, don't work nearly as well when you don't have white people serving on the juries.
When you have non-whites serving on juries, that's when you start to have these runaway juries, when you have people that let criminals go based on race or grant judgments to people or deny judgments to people based on race and ethnicity.
That's unfortunate, but that is the truth.
That's why you hear about all this tort reform and about need for reforming the jury system.
Well, these people are like the emperor's new clothes.
If you point out to them it's race stupid, that's why we've got the problems with the jury system that we have, then they will go nuts.
Well, the good news is Steve King.
Steve King didn't apologize.
He didn't back down much, if at all.
He wasn't as stout as we would have been, to be sure, but he did fine.
For a congressman, he got an A-plus.
And the good thing is that's good because had he apologized, he would still be a racist and he would have lost any respect he had with his constituents.
Now, I will tell you this.
When I was at the Republican National Convention last summer, I bumped into Steve King and we had a short conversation.
I introduced myself.
We talked for a short time.
But what we talked about was pretty stout.
And he struck me as being the real deal.
If you'll remember, last year, he was in another row with the media.
He told a panel, a media panel that was at the RNC, who were gloating about the fact that Trump's convention was the last time that old white people will command the Republican Party's attention, its platform, its public face.
And he responded to the media panel by saying, this old white people business gets a little tired.
Go back through history and figure out where are all the contributions that have been made by these other categories of people you're talking about.
Where did any other subgroup of people contribute more to civilization than whites?
That's what he said.
And he didn't back down.
And so I thanked him for saying that at the Republican National Convention, and he said he wasn't going to back down.
And now here he is again in the news again, also not backing down.
This is apparently part of who he is now.
Thank heavens we have at least one representative out there in Congress.
I got another one for you, Keith.
Another jewel in the crown of King Steve, we can call him King Steve maybe, is that at his congressional office building in Washington, D.C., in the belly of the beast, he has displayed a Confederate flag, even though Iowa, his state, fought for the bad guys.
So here you have an Iowa congressman at his congressional office in Washington putting the Christian flag of the Confederacy on his desk, whereas even Southern congressmen don't do that anymore.
I know.
Now we would, of course, if we were in Congress.
Well, we're not.
But the thing is, if you stand for the right principles, then you're going to be a supporter of the Confederate flag and the Christian cross.
There you go.
We have a couple of articles about Steve King.
One written by Kevin McDonald for the Occidental Observer that we reposted at thepoliticalspool.org, and one by Walter Jackson of alt-right.com.
Long live the King.
He wraps it up as this.
King is more our guy than Trump has ever been.
But would he be saying these kind of things without Trump?
We can only hope that these kinds of statements serve to embolden more of our people as they see that people like themselves are in positions of power.
And as a side note, it's fascinating to note the cross-polonization of nationalist European American reactions to Islamic colonization.
It would have been so easy for the managerial states of the West to simply say no to creating another client, people for multiculturalism, and settle for what they already had to control over.
Now we may live to see that Muslims were the straw that broke the camel's back and ended the mirage that has been dubbed the end of history.
But when you've got people in Iowa more vocally alarmed about what's happening in Europe than people in Washington, London, Paris, and Berlin, it's truly time for a change.
And he's right.
Steve King cares more about what's happening in Europe, the Islamification of Europe, than their own leaders do.
