You're listening to the Liberty News Radio Network, and this is the Political Cesspool.
The Political Cesspool, known 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.
Okay, folks, how about Jared Taylor?
What a great guy.
One of my favorites in all the world.
And, of course, one of our most frequent guests all time, Jared Taylor.
He may have now overtaken Ted Pike as our most featured guest in terms of the number of appearances on this show.
Ted Pike was right up there for a long, long time.
Ted Pike, of course, retired a couple of years ago.
He, too, was one of my favorites.
But I love Jared.
Know him personally.
Good friend, good man, and good son of the South as he helped us close down Confederate History Month 2017.
Man, did I enjoy that?
It went by too quickly.
Although, you're still going to get a little bit of a dessert next week as we're moving into the new studio.
We're doing a rebroadcast next week.
We're going to play that Gene Andrews thing on Fort Pillow.
We like to entertain you, but we also like to educate and inform you and equip you with the resources you need to go out there and stand your ground on these questions.
And I think the Political Cesspool does it as well as anyone.
Talking about the new studio, we were talking about the first hour walking down memory lane, examining that politico piece on Pat Buchanan and how through a chain of events I got to where I am today.
I was going through some old boxes that had been in my attic for years.
And I came across some campaign memorabilia from 2002.
I have got to take some pictures of this stuff.
It's at the new location.
I'm, of course, at the radio station tonight.
This is at our new broadcast studio and office, headquarters, whatever you want to call it.
It's all of the above.
And I've got a ton of boxes in there.
My desk is already in there, my computer, and it's beginning to take form.
We're going to be working around the clock almost between Monday coming up through next week and on into the week after that.
So we can be set up, not next week, but the Saturday following that, two weeks from tonight, to broadcast live from that location.
Well, and I only repeat myself for effect on that, the redundancy I want you to know.
I don't want you to think something's askew when you're hearing a rebroadcast next week.
And of course, we're excited about these things because of what it'll be able to do in terms of enhancing our outreach.
But anyway, back to the memorabilia.
I was going through these things, and I found all of this stuff from 2002.
I'm going to take pictures of it.
I'm going to put it on Twitter.
That's one thing we'll be able to do at this new location that we haven't been able to do at the studio.
Now, here at the station, they're very kind.
We work great with the management here.
Dave's one of my best friends.
I've known him forever.
He's always taken our part, just like Sam Bushman.
I mean, the station management of the affiliates that play us behind us 100%.
They're great men.
And that's not going to change.
I mean, we're still going to be great friends with them.
We just won't come to this location every night to do the show.
But they've been kind enough to let us put a few awards up on the walls here at the radio station.
But when we get to this new place, it's going to be like a political cesspool museum.
How about that?
How about that for something?
Another way we can use this space.
A museum.
And I found one of my campaign yard signs from 2002, James Edwards for State Representative, which was, of course, just another stepping stone in my progression, another stepping stone that led me down that broken road into the radio station for the first time in the fall of 2004.
And then the rest was history, or history still being written as far as that's concerned.
But I found this yard sign.
Oh, man, when I saw it, I hadn't seen one of those things since 2002, I guess, November 2002, Election Day, maybe a few weeks after that, as we were picking things up and putting them up.
I kept a few for myself, but they'd been in the attic for a long, long time.
Saw this thing, all those memories came rushing back.
And this particular yard sign, which was actually displayed in someone's yard, I remember after the campaign, we had to go back and try to pick up some of these yard signs.
And I autographed it and my A team, my campaign manager called this group of young guys, my A team.
We went out every day.
That campaign was at an important time in my life where I had around-the-clock availability to pursue it.
I was at 2002, 21, 22 years old that year, and I hadn't yet settled down in my career.
I wasn't yet married, so I just had the time to really dedicate everything into that campaign.
And my friends, as I've said before, were my age or younger, and so they had the time.
And we went out every day through the searing heat of summer, through the bitter cold of the early fall, the fall and early winter into November, and we knocked on doors, and I wore out the soles of all these pairs of shoes.
I found the shoes that I wore.
I would always dress up.
I wouldn't go out in shorts and a t-shirt.
I'd dress up to go out and knock on doors and talk to voters.
And I found the shoes.
I found one of these campaign signs that we all signed after the election was over that I could keep for keep's sake.
And we're going to put some of this stuff up on the wall at our new location.
And so it's going to be a broadcast studio, a headquarters, a command center, an office, and sort of a museum, if you will.
And I found so many pictures from the early years of the political cesspool, the Buchanan campaign, me and Pat together, and just all basically my whole career in boxes.
And it's going to be on display here at the location where we're going to be moving the studio to.
It's just in complete disarray right now, which is why we have to take off the show next week to make sure we're ready to go.
We don't want to drag it on out.
Now that we're able to finish it all, we're going to dig in and finish it.
And there's just so many boxes in there, but it's my life.
It's my career.
It's my activism in pictures and in newspapers and in some of the articles.
I don't keep up with all the coverage that we get now because it'd just be too much.
But some of the early articles that were out about the show, I found those.
And man, it was just such a wonderful time of reminiscing.
And we're going to put this up and we'll do videos from this place and take some pictures.
And I hope you can enjoy it, folks, because this is our place.
It's your place.
We're here because of you.
We're on the radio because of you.
And where we go from here, which I can tell you, it's only going to be bigger and better.
It's only going to be bigger and better with increased opportunities and an increased workspace.
You made it happen.
And so when I go in here and I look at these things that have happened in my life, I can point at you and I can say, thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you for giving me a wonderful, as I always put it, a wonderfully turbulent political career and one that I wouldn't change for anything.
And I can't say if I had this opportunity, I would do this.
I can tell you with the fact that I have had these opportunities and I've passed a month that meant trimming ourselves, toning it down, not talking about certain things.
I would rather reach the audience I've got than have a position like Bill O'Reilly had and not be able to do the good work.
I'm proud of our audience.
Our audience is very big.
Our audience is responsive and loyal and kind.
It is my audience.
I don't covet anybody else's flock.
I want my audience, whatever size it is.
I'd rather have the one that I made with you, ladies and gentlemen, doing it my way than having an opportunity to make a lot of money, but not being able to talk about the issues that we have to talk about, the issues that this show brings to life.
And again, I'm just spending a little time with you right now, being personal with you.
That's who we are.
That's how we do our business.
I am telling you this because everything I do and experience, I want to share with you because you made it possible.
And we'll talk more about that later.
Gonna shift gears after this.
One more little update on some stuff going on behind the scenes.
And then I've got, we're gonna talk about Trump and some other things going on in the news right now.
Stay tuned.
Okay, let's try this.
Honey, I've got some surprising news.
No.
Okay, this will work.
Guess who's gonna have a baby?
Oh, no, that's not it.
I don't know.
Hi, honey.
Are you okay?
Jill's pregnant.
Our Jill?
She's just a kid.
I know.
You know, nothing really has to change when the baby comes.
I'll help her.
We'll just help her, right?
We never thought it would happen to our Jill or to us.
We didn't know how to best help her through the tough decisions she'd have to make.
Thankfully, we found that help.
And not just for her, but for us too.
We're here to listen.
We're here to help LDS Family Services.
Where there's help, there's hope.
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.
The number's 801-669-2211.
That's 801-669-2211.
Or email Kurt, C-U-R-T, at LibertyRoundtable.com.

All right, everybody.
Well, one more thing I want to update y'all on, and I did make mention of this on the website as well earlier this week, is that a pretty significant one-year anniversary just passed a couple of days ago, and it's one that I certainly don't take lightly.
On April 18th, 2016, just over a year ago, I filed a lawsuit against the Detroit News Incorporated and one of its journalists, in which I alleged that they defamed me by falsely stating as fact that I am a leader of the Ku Klux Klan.
And you're familiar with that, of course.
And we actually sent out at that time a special notice via snail mail to our contributors and to our donors.
We send out four quarterly mailouts each year that double as our, of course, our fundraising initiatives.
But we send out in that appeal, we send out the latest things that we've been involved with, things that are going on, things that are exciting, things that we want you to know about.
And we send that out four times a year, of course, to coincide with the four times that we do the fundraising drives.
I think this was the only time in the 13 years we've been on the show that we sent out a mail out in addition to that, except for maybe the 10-year anniversary celebration.
Anyway, we sent that out last year to let you know all about it.
And I wanted to just follow up with you tonight because from time to time I get emails about from people asking, hey, what's going on with your case?
We got the letter last year.
Haven't heard much about it since then.
Well, of course, I can't talk much about it while it's still ongoing.
But what I can tell you is we have now passed the one-year anniversary of the filing of that lawsuit.
And it is still meandering through the legal system.
The wheels of justice turn slowly, as they say.
And of course, the defendants in this case, the Detroit News and one of its columnists, are arguing in part that my case should be dismissed because it is legally impossible to defame me because the Southern Poverty Law Center and Anti-Defamation League have written horribly untrue things about me and my work as an advocate for European Americans.
And it's troubling, of course, that it is being argued and even considered that such a staunchly conservative, law-abiding American citizen being targeted by the SPLC and ADL renders one an outlaw for whom the law provides no protection.
If it can happen to me, it will happen to you.
My attorney, Kyle Bristow, done an excellent job.
He really has.
This is just a brilliant genius guy.
I have known Kyle for a few years, but we have worked intimately together, of course, as you would imagine, on this case.
And I just respect the hell out of him.
He's done a fantastic job representing me.
And I hold out hope that a favorable decision will be rendered.
We won a victory in Auburn a couple of weeks ago.
Sam Dixon representing Richard Spencer getting that injunction to allow Richard to speak at Auburn.
You would think that was a slam dunk, and it should have been, and it was in Auburn.
Maybe it wouldn't have been outside of Alabama if you're in a place like California.
This too should be a slam dunk, because if I understand correctly, one of the textbook definitions of libel that is presented as an exam is if you, for instance, someone is a member or a leader of the Ku Klux Klan when in fact they're not.
I believe that is the case.
And that is certainly what I feel as though it was put in this newspaper.
Now, I've been called a lot of things, of course, but that takes it just too far.
It's got to stop somewhere.
It's just got to stop somewhere because we're talking about, yes, I am a public figure, but even public figures, and it is harder to defame a celebrity or a public figure, but this is not impossible.
And this is a textbook case.
So I'm in a long fight, obviously, to safeguard my dignity.
I certainly figured in April of last year that this would be resolved by now, one way or the other.
But now a year later, and we're no nearer the conclusion of this than we were when we started, as best I can tell.
It's in the Michigan Court of Appeals, and we're waiting for the next salvo.
But it's come at a great cost, certainly.
There are costs inherent with litigation, such as filing fees, travel expenses, expert witness fees, subpoena fees, and office-related expenses that we must be prepared to pay.
Some of those things we've paid for already.
Some of them it hasn't come to that time yet because we haven't yet found out if this will be heard by a jury or if a panel of judges are just going to dismiss it or what.
But I will keep you posted on these future developments when I'm able.
But I would ask you to consider helping me offset the cost of this litigation.
If you can, please go to thepoliticalcess.org and contribute a general contribution to the show.
This is something that is certainly program-related.
And it will be allocated as such.
But I think that we have to stand up for ourselves and our ideas in the forms that are presented.
We fight in the court of public opinion.
And I don't take lightly the fact that we're not filing a lawsuit just to stick it to the enemy.
We're fighting a lawsuit because we believe the law is on our side and that we've been wronged.
And you can't allow people to wrong you without fighting back.
And if you have an opportunity to fight back in courts, then I think that's where it should be resolved.
Because what else are you going to do?
I mean, are they going to make it right by not changing things?
And so we felt as though, and it took a lot of deliberation, that filing this lawsuit was the appropriate course of action for the damage that had been done.
And we are, of course, seeking and hoping for a favorable decision.
But bottom line is I bring that back up for two reasons.
Number one, we just passed the one-year anniversary of the filing of that lawsuit.
Number two, I get emails occasionally from people wanting updates.
And we get so many emails.
I'm not always as good as I should be on responding To them.
It's quite difficult to keep up with all the correspondence.
But for all of you who had been wondering about that, basically, there's no new news.
It is still in the courts, and we're still waiting for more information.
And it could drag out for months longer, or it could be resolved soon.
Who knows what will happen?
But we're going to stand up and fight and hope that the courts see the merit of our argument.
Now, also, one thing that happened last year was the courthouse news service actually wrote, this is sort of an insider publication or a trade journal for lawyers and legal professionals, and they wrote an article about this, which began, call conservative talk radio show host James Edwards a hatemonger.
Just don't call him a member of the Ku Klux Klan.
Edwards sued the Detroit News and one of its columns who printed that he was a leader of the Ku Klux Klan.
The column, which appeared in the newspaper on March 17th, 2016, listed Edwards alongside David Duke as one of the Klan's leaders.
All of these leaders, avowed racists and Holocaust deniers, have publicly expressed strong support for Trump and hailing him as the best candidate to lead the country.
The column, which was written by co-defendant Van Cole Thompson, said, Thompson's column was written in response to Edwards' public support for Donald Trump for president and was one of many to land-based the Trump campaign for granting Edwards media credentials for one of its rallies.
An article in the New York Daily News at the time referred to Edwards as a hate monger by insinuating that Edwards as a Klansman, however, the Detroit News crossed a line, one that involves libel and invasion of privacy, according to the lawsuit.
Edwards, whose radio talk show, The Political Cessbull, touts its pro-white message and opposes racial integration policies, has featured interviews with David Duke and other white supremacists, blah, blah, blah.
The typical name-calling there, which is not actionable, by the way.
They can lie and call me a white supremacist or even a neo-Nazi or some of these other things.
That's called rhetorical hyperbole.
But to say you are the leader of an organization is either provable, is either real, is either true, or it's false, and it can be proven one way or another.
Trump is a Nazi to some people.
Donald Trump is a white supremacist to some people.
Mel Gibson is a Nazi.
I mean, anybody that you dislike, you can call them a Nazi.
But to call them a member of the Ku Klux Klan or a leader of the Klan in this case is something that my lawyer felt was actionable, and so we're pursuing it.
In March 2016, Edwards interviewed Donald Trump Jr. on his show.
That's not quite right, but during which Edwards praised his guest father and supported his presidential run.
And actually, yeah, that part's true.
It's actually a pretty decent article.
You can go and read that whole article that was written last year upon the filing of the lawsuit at thepolitical cesspool.org.
Just wanted to give you a quick update that there's not a lot to report there, but we did pass the one-year anniversary, and we're still seeking justice.
Stay tuned.
We're going to talk about Trump, what President Trump's doing now, one year later, when we come back.
Pursuing liberty, using the Constitution as our guide.

Welcome back.
To get on the show, call us on James's Guy at 1-866-986-6397.
All right, folks, we spent a lot of time this show breaking down some behind-the-scenes stuff, updates and announcements and things of that nature.
Every now and then, you got to do that.
You got to do that.
I don't guess you have to do that, but I do that because I choose to be very open and raw with my listeners.
And so tonight, we're doing that a little more than usual.
But now back to contemporary topics.
Brother Nathaniel Kappner, you all know Brother Nathaniel, Jewish convert to Orthodox Christianity, YouTube sensation, really frank and willing to deliver candid commentaries on certain taboo issues.
He has a recent video out, or rather I should say his most recent video is now out.
And in it, he talks about how Donald Trump is lining up with other criminals in Washington.
It's called Swamp Time with Donald Trump.
Let's give it a listen.
It's the new reality show, Swamp Time with Donald Trump.
He's a swanster just like the rest.
A Manhattan apprentice swimming with a sewer ass in D.C. Trump promised to drain the swamp, but instead dove right in.
His illegal strike on Syria for chemical weapons, minus any investigation or forensic evidence, made neocon Jews like Crystal and Kagan giddy with glee.
And their back door into the White House, Jared Kushner, is surely bent on seeing Bashar al-Assad flee.
Trump stiffed his contractors.
Now he's stiffed those who voted for him, mainly on non-intervention.
I really understand what's going on in Syria because you look at it.
First of all, it's a total catastrophe.
It's a total mess.
And we're helping to make it a mess.
Now, we have ISIS, and ISIS wants to go after Assad.
But we're knocking the hell out of them, even though it's not a very full-blown thing.
We're still dropping bombs all over the place.
And, you know, look, they're not exactly loving life over in Syria.
So we're stopping them to a certain extent from going after Assad.
You have Russia that's now there.
Russia's on the side of Assad.
And Russia wants to get rid of ISIS as much as we do, if not more, because they don't want them coming into Russia.
And I'm saying, why are we knocking ISIS and yet at the same time, we're against Assad?
Because when you're waging wars for the Jews, everything is ass backward.
It's the murky Jewish swamp running from Tel Aviv to DC.
I mean, if you're really after ISIS, you won't fight Assad who's doing the grunt work, protecting all the Syrian people, including Christians.
But America doesn't care about Christians.
Instead, it attacks a leader who protects those who love Christ.
And once upon a time, Trump was on the right side of history.
Our new foreign policy will put America first.
Hillary brought death and disaster to Iraq, Syria, Libya.
She empowered Iran, and she unleashed ISIS.
Now she wants to start a shooting war in Syria in conflict with a nuclear-armed Russia that could very well lead to World War III.
Hillary and our failed Washington establishment have spent $6 trillion on wars in the Middle East, wars we never win.
And now it's in worse shape than ever before.
Wars we never win, folks.
They've dragged us into foreign wars that have made us left.
And they took us, they opened up our borders.
You know, it's interesting.
We fight for their borders, but at home we have open borders.
That's right.
Fight for Israel's borders and send America to the back of the bus.
And that bus is driven by Mad Dog Mattis and Herbie McMaster, both war criminals and both Trump's main advisors.
Mattis threw white phosphorus bombs on little children in Fallujah.
And McMaster abused and starved hundreds of POWs in Iraq.
Now Trump joins their war crimes by striking Syria's Sharat airbase, killing six soldiers who fight ISIS, by the way, and 10 civilians.
But selective outrage is a trick of the trade when waging wars with the Jews against the axis of resistance to Zionist hegemony, Syria, Iran, and Lebanon.
It's a remake of the invasion of the body snatchers.
A pod grows out of the swamp entwined around Trump.
His eyes pop up and a bald head protrudes.
Suddenly, Trump grows a second head with Jared Kushner's face.
And you thought you voted for Donald Trump?
Nah, your vote got thrown in the Israel first swamp.
Okay, well, I think the most telling thing about that has to be the clips that you heard.
I probably should have made mention of this before we played that video from Brother Nathaniel.
Obviously, when you're watching it as a video, you can tell for yourself, but playing it over the radio, it might not have been so clear.
Those clips you heard from Donald Trump were, of course, during the campaign.
We're spot on.
And of course, it's 180 degrees different than what he's doing as president.
To hear him speak about Syria and the other things that he addressed in that clip from just a few months ago compared to where he is now, how did that happen?
Well, we've been having this discussion for the last few weeks on the show.
Who's to say?
No one knows.
Was he subverted?
Was he blackmailed?
Was he always a fraud?
Is this something that will correct itself?
Will Trump a month from now look more like the candidate than this person we've seen in the White House for the last few weeks?
Again, I think he came out of the gates during the first few days of his presidency with guns blazing, really taking some radical steps.
I mean, radical in a very good sense in that use of the word.
And now, obviously, not so much, to say the least.
So we'll keep monitoring it.
And what else can I say about that?
We'll see where it goes.
I will say this.
Of course, there's some chatter out there right now that Trump will force a government shutdown if Ryan doesn't include in his budget funding for the wall.
And of course, the Democrats are going to say they're going to veto any funding that has money included for the wall.
So we'll see if he holds the line on that or if he does like Republicans have done forever.
Well, we tried, but we couldn't quite get it through.
But we fought the good fight, but we lost this time.
Well, that's what they say absolutely every time they pretend to fight.
Trump may very well do that.
At least right now, there's a chance that he's going to stick to his guns on that.
But don't be surprised if he changes a horse in midstream once again, based upon what we've seen out of the president in the last couple of months.
We will see.
And we will report here on the political cesspool.
But there are, wow, I mean, we could get into all of it.
People call it the black pill.
A lot of things that's happened just in recent days out of the administration that are just no good and certainly polar opposite from what we were hearing on the campaign trail that motivated many of us to vote for Donald Trump.
How about this?
I'll just give them to you straight.
Number one, Trump says we're going to keep DACA because, quote, this is a case of the heart.
In fact, Steve Schwartzmann, the CEO of Blackstone Group, a hedge fund billionaire, persuaded Trump to break his campaign promise, according to some reports.
Number two, this is just the latest garbage coming out of the administration.
Mike Pence is coming back from Australia with 1,250 Syrian refugees, which are being dumped on us.
Angela Merkel convinced Trump to support a free trade deal with the European Union.
That's number three.
Number four, apparently Trump has no objection to indicting Julian Assange all of the sudden.
Number five, after campaigning on the fate of our civilization being at stake in the 2016 election, Trump and the GOP Congress are gearing up to spend the political capital on what else but tax cuts.
Look, if the only thing we get from Trump is the wall, and he's George W. Bush on everything else, or even Hillary Clinton on everything else, it will still be better than Hillary Clinton.
But the fact of the matter is, Donald Trump had a chance to be great.
But even with that, even if he had been the candidate, which was a fantasy, maybe.
I mean, even if he wanted to be, he probably couldn't be because of the system of government that we have with the judges overturning everything that he would do that would be good and the Democrats opposing everything no matter what because he's a Republican.
Even if he tried, he couldn't have done it all, but at least he could have tried.
And whatever he would have done, he would have done more if he had tried than not try at all, which is what we're getting right now.
But what we always have to remember is that the end game, and we've said this before, the end game was never Donald Trump.
Our movement is bigger than Donald Trump.
Donald Trump was not going to be a guy.
Even if he was everything we hoped he was during the campaign, even if that's the kind of way he presided in the White House, if that's the kind of president he was, if he was candidate Trump on steroids as president, it still wouldn't have been enough.
We have to think long term.
Now, certainly, I would rather Donald Trump be candidate Trump on steroids as president than what we're getting currently.
And that may well change again.
We'll see.
But even if he had been all that, four or even eight years of a president like that wouldn't heal everything.
It wouldn't even come close.
So our movement has to think beyond a presidential term or two terms.
We have to think in terms of generations.
And so for that reason alone, it was always bigger than Trump, but he could certainly be an ally rather than an adversary.
And right now, it's hard to tell which one he is.
We'll be back to close the show up right after this.

Most Americans are painfully aware that the nation is on the wrong track and in dire straits.
Unfortunately, most political pundits only nibble around the edges when they claim to address the issues.
Even worse, many of the so-called solutions are simply rewarmed servings of what got us into the mess we currently face.
And the politicians think we're so gullible and naive that we'll buy their lies that they have reformed and now understand where they led us astray.
Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is that they simply wish to continue to hold power.
The solution to America's challenges is found in returning to the timeless principles found in the United States Constitution.
My book and lecture series will reawaken in Americans an understanding and love of the principles which made this nation the freest, most prosperous, happiest, and most respected nation on earth.
Visit topreservethenation.com and order my book and lectures to begin the restoration of this great nation.
Welcome back to Get On The Show.
Call us on James's Dime at 1-866-986-6397.
All right, folks.
Hey, this is the last, it just dawned on me in this last commercial break, and it shouldn't have because I've been talking about it all night.
We even made mention of it last week, but this is the last segment that I'll be broadcasting to you from this particular studio.
When I come back to you two weeks from tonight, we will have a brand new studio, and I'll tell you what, folks, an all-star lineup of guests.
I am going to have that show so jam-packed with all-stars to break in the new studio.
We're going to be bigger, better, batter than ever before.
And I just can't wait.
I look forward to coming to work every Saturday.
I've looked forward to every show I've ever done for 13 years.
But as I said, every now and then, we're only human.
You do get a little more excited.
I'm never not excited, but sometimes I'm a little more excited than usual.
I'm very excited about the proactive changes we've made.
I mean, just look at our website again.
I don't want to beat a dead horse or repeat myself.
My wife always gets onto me for being repetitive.
Well, it's because I'm OCD and I want people to know and I repeat things for emphasis.
But look at our website.
We're on all of these different mobile devices now.
If there were five ways to listen to the show a month ago, there are 12 different ways to listen to the show now, different ways to download them.
I mean, it's just so much more accessible.
Our broadcast archives have been completely redone.
And now we're going into this new location with the studio office headquarters.
It's just going to be incredible.
We're going to continue the fight in the court of public opinion, on the streets, and even in the court of law.
So, hey, your quarterly contributions to this show have enabled this growth and expansion.
What else can I say?
And there are more, by the way.
We are still getting interest from more AM radio stations that seek to bring the political cesspool broadcast to their communities, to their cities and towns.
And so all of this will help us facilitate the demand and give us a better place to conduct our operations.
And if you want to help us continue to grow, I know we're not in the middle of a quarterly fundraising drive right now, but believe me, we have bills every month, whether we're raising money officially or not.
We're never closed for business is what I'm trying to say.
So if you're excited about the things that we're doing, well, come on and stand with us, folks.
And you can go to our website, thepolitical cesspool.org, poke around there and take a look at all the new improvements we've made and stop by the donation page and send us a quick little tip, put a little change, a little coin in our pocket.
And again, it's all wisely allocated.
We never spend a cent unless we feel it is either absolutely essential to keep us on the air or it will be allocated in such a way that will enable us to grow and reach more people with this message that you've entrusted us to carry for you.
So I know we've been real heavy on that tonight.
I mean, we've certainly had some news and analysis.
We wrapped up Confederate History Month with Jared, but I purposefully wanted to spend a little more time emphasizing everything that's coming up because, well, we're excited about it.
We want you to be excited about it too.
And I think when you say something one time, two times, it makes an impression.
But when you really beat it into people's minds, and I'm not trying to beat anything into your minds, I just want you to know what we know.
I think it makes more of an impact.
That being said.
Well, I didn't want to cover this tonight, but you know what's going on in New Orleans.
The thugs down there, the black ISIS, the Democratic ISIS people that are in government down there in New Orleans are tearing down our monuments, and who knows what they're going to do with them.
But it is a good precedent that's being set here.
Once the tables are turned, I'm going to use this precedent to argue that it's fine to remove our enemies' historical monuments.
And believe me, I'd love to be the one of the bulldozer once we regain power in this country to knock down all of these monuments.
If they're going to do it, by God, we'll do it twice as bad.
And I would love to do that.
But now, if they can leave well enough and alone and we can all be respectful of history and each other's culture, then that's fine.
But they can't.
That's the problem.
They absolutely can't.
They're filled with hatred of white Christian culture and white Christian heroes, and they can't stand it.
And that is why a multicultural America, it's not why, it's one of a hundred, maybe one of a thousand reasons why.
Multicultural, egalitarian nonsense that we have here will never work.
People who inhabit the same living space that have polar opposite heroes and languages in many cases and religions and histories, you can't occupy the same living space.
It's not fair to anyone.
And so we do need to have a separation.
And how that comes, we'll let God decide.
We'll just be here to do our duty.
That's what we always have to be.
We have to be an eternal flame.
We stay vigilant.
We stay alert.
We try to rally others to the cause, which is what we're doing here on the radio.
But the ultimate solution perhaps hasn't presented itself yet.
Again, as I said, who would have thought in my life that 12-year-old boy would be where he is now?
Who would have thought the alt-right would have come up?
I've said that a couple of times tonight, but we don't know what's coming up.
We have to be ready to apply ourselves and jump on when the situation does manifest itself.
And the only way solutions, you know how solutions present themselves, ladies and gentlemen, it's when good people like us, intelligent, informed people who want to preserve their ethnic and racial and cultural and spiritual identities, when we get together and we share ideas and we network and we communicate and we work together, which has always been what this radio program has done.
The SBLC, that's one thing they've gotten right about us.
They say we're the nexus of the movement.
Well, we want to be a nexus.
And when you are a nexus and you have these healthy debates and conversations, things present themselves.
If you just sit alone in the dark and you think things over, you don't get anywhere.
But when you still sharpen steel and people coming on and debating and strategizing, things come up and many times answers appear that you would have never had considered before.
And that's what we want to facilitate here on this program and so much more.
From a brand new place, as we still reach all of the AMF and affiliates that we've always reached, as we still come to you from the internet at thepoliticalaccessible.org, however you listen, that's not going to change.
We're going to be in a better place in two weeks.
Next week, remember, rebroadcast.
We'll put up some announcements on the website in case you forget.
Rebroadcast all three hours next week, some of our best of shows.
And then the following week, we'll be back with an all-star lineup back to live production.
Bigger, better, batter than ever before.
Hey, but before we do any of that, how about we send off tonight's show, last of Confederate History Month 2017, with the most traditional version of Dixie.
Now, you've heard the war version of Dixie.
Everybody knows the first verse of Dixie.
We played some other songs, the Bonnie Blue Flag, The Night They Drove All Dixie Down.
We love that stuff.
Any version of Dixie is a good one.
But this is one of the most traditional that I could find.
And it includes some follow-up verses that perhaps you may not be familiar with.
Let's play it, and it's going to take us into the end of the show.
I'll see you in two weeks, ladies and gentlemen.
But be sure to tune in next week to the rebroadcast because it's going to be some shows that you haven't heard in a while that you'll need to hear again.
And we'll talk to you on Twitter and on the website.
In the meantime, we'll be back live in two weeks.
We love you.
God bless you.
Happy Confederate History Month.
I'm James Edwards.
The rest of my team and crew, let's sing Dixie.
And there I'm not away, look away, Dixie Land.
In Dixie's land, where I was born and early on one frosty morning.
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land.
Then I wish I was in Dixie, hooray, hooray.
In Dixie's land, I'll take my stand and live and I'm Dixie away, away, away downside, away, away, away down some Dixie.
Oh, this is Mary Will the Reimer, William Moss of Gaily Seama.
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land.
And Mackey put his arms around and smiled their smells as a forty pound.
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land.
Then I wish I was in Dixie, hooray, hooray.
In Dixie's land, I'll take my stand and live and die.
