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.
The Political Cesspool is gearing up for an incredibly busy month to come.
The next four weeks are going to be packed with events and appearances from American Renaissance to Unite the Right.
Over the course of the next three hours, we're going to be filling you in on our upcoming schedule while also covering the news just the way you like it.
Welcome, everybody, to tonight's show.
I'm James Edwards.
We're live this Saturday evening, July the 22nd.
Keith Alexander the Great in here wearing a Sears Sucker suit, no less on this hot, hot, hot July night.
Keith, tell us a little bit about the Sears Sucker.
Well, Sears Sucker is the only option for comfort if you live in the tropical South as we do here in Memphis.
We're at the very edge of it, I guess, but in the Delta, it's just too hot for tropical white wool.
That might work in New York City or Chicago, but in a place like Memphis or New Orleans or Mobile or Jackson, Mississippi, all people that have to wear a suit, and nowadays, the only people that really have to wear a suit are lawyers.
You have to go for Sears Sucker, in my opinion.
It's just the only thing that gives you even a modicum of comfort.
And, you know, you can sweat right through the Sears Sucker down here.
I guarantee you.
It's hot as hell's hinges down here in Memphis right now.
This is the worst part of the year by far.
James will not get out of the house.
I mean, or out of the studio.
He has to stay in air-conditioned comfort.
I'm sending Eddie to Virginia.
It's just...
Look, I went out this morning.
It is so hot.
Even at 7, 8 o'clock in the morning, it's so hot, so humid.
Just so disgusting.
This is the weather that I dread come Easter time.
When I start seeing those pastel colors and eggs hit the store, this just dread washes over my body because I know days like this are coming.
But thankfully, now that we're in the road.
Heat and vegetables are the anathema.
They're like a bag of garlic to a vampire for James.
He just cannot, his version of hell would be to have nothing but vegetables to eat in intense heat.
Well, nevertheless, at least now that we're in the throes of it, we're that much closer to fall.
But before we get to fall, as I mentioned, so much to do, folks.
The next four weeks, I guess with success comes responsibility and obligation.
And you are one of the most identifiable voices of a movement and certainly one of the most venerable institutions as we are here at TPC.
your calendar gets filled up quick and so dance card.
Coming up this week, I'll be attending what's become, I guess, a summit on alt-right and Christianity, the convergence of Christianity in the alt-right.
It's a private function.
I guess you could say a leadership function, but that's going to involve some travel midweek coming up.
Two days after that, Keith Alexander will be at American Renaissance, excuse me, July 28th through the 30th.
So that's obviously next weekend.
We will, of course, be having live updates from the scene of American Renaissance.
Keith going as our emissary to that event.
So if you are a Keith Alexander fan, and I know so many of you are, and you're going to American Renaissance, be sure to seek Keith out and shake his hand and take advantage of the opportunity to spend a little time in his company.
I certainly enjoy having that opportunity.
He'll be the one in the Searsucker suit, right?
Are you going to wear the Searsucker to Amry?
Probably.
Okay.
Well, Keith will be.
Unless we have a cold snap or something.
Not likely.
So Keith will be at Amrin next week, the week after that.
Tell him who we've got coming in to set with us in the studio for a full three-hour show.
So we've got a regular show tonight, or as normal as any show can be.
Nothing's ever really normal with us because there's always something happening.
But we got a typical show tonight.
Next week, Keith at Amrin, the week after that, we're going to do something a little differently two weeks from tonight.
We're going to have myself, Keith Alexander, and Eddie the Bombardier Miller for the full three hours together.
It's going to be a roundtable discussion for the full three hours with the entire hosting staff.
So we're not going to do split shifts that night.
We'll all be there.
Plus, a very special guest who, unlike 99% of our guests who call in over the phone, of course, that's much more easy and convenient.
This guest will actually be with us live in studio for the full three-hour roundtable that we're going to be having two weeks from tonight.
Tell them who it is.
Simon Roach.
And he is, of course, the dignitary from the organization out to raise awareness of the plight of our brothers in South Africa.
So Simon will be with us two weeks from the night in studio for a roundtable discussion on the situation that our white cousins in South Africa.
It could very well be the situation we find ourselves in if we're not vigilant and if we don't take steps to protect ourselves from this fate.
Because I guarantee you, back in the 1970s and 80s, white people in South Africa thought that everything was going to continue on as it always had and there was not going to be any cataclysmic change.
Well, there is.
And now they are a despised minority.
Many of them, particularly the Boers or the Dutch-descended inhabitants, are living oftentimes in plywood shacks and makeshift camps and whatnot.
And the government openly discriminates against them.
There's no pretense of minority rights in South Africa.
This is, if you want a bellwether in the night, as Thomas Jefferson said, if you want to see what the future could be and how bleak it could be, look at the plight of white people in the former Odisha, now Zimbabwe, and in South Africa.
Well, Simon was with us a couple of months ago.
Winston Smith was covering that show for me as I was on the West Coast that week.
But Simon was with us for an hour that night.
He's coming with us for an encore appearance that's going to be much more intensive and detailed.
The full three hours will be talking about the situation over there and also contemporary events and his take on an assortment of topics.
That's in two weeks.
And then the week after that, Saturday, August 12th, Eddie will be in Charlottesville.
It is official.
We oscillated between.
Visiting professor at the University of Virginia.
We oscillated between sending someone from our staff to represent our show at the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville versus having someone that we know that would be there who is not a member of our staff, but certainly a trusted friend, having somebody of the many people that will be there that we know just call in from the scene and give us that report.
But Eddie wanted to go.
The audience wanted Eddie to go.
And so we're sending Eddie.
So anyway, that's it, folks.
So we got a leadership summit that I'll be traveling to this week.
Keith at Amrin.
Next week's show will be from there.
Week after that, Simon in the house or in the studio.
Simon Says.
Simon Says is the name of that show.
That's right.
And then the following week after that, Eddie in Charlottesville, where he will report live and break down everything that took place that day for you.
So, we're going to have an eyewitness live from the scene report from Charlottesville.
So, over the course of the next month, each of us will be taking a trip to make an appearance at three very important events, plus a very special show with Simon from South Africa.
It's all coming up over the course of the next four weeks.
So, be sure not to miss a single broadcast or a single post to our website.
We've got a very interesting piece that's going to be posted next week that we're going to cover.
It's like the weather things are heating up here at the political session.
That's right.
Now, with all of that being said, you know, we like to kick off each show with a little opening banter and some announcements.
We're going to sink our teeth into the business of the evening, Trump's first six months.
We're going to offer you our assessment and so much more.
A lot of news involving celebrities and politicians.
A lot of individual items we'll cover this hour, too.
It's going to be fun.

Scott Bradley here.
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.

It's time to jump back into the political cesspool to be part of the show and have your voice heard around the world.

I want to work through this as quickly as possible because we really have a lot to cover this evening.
Obviously, when Donald Trump was elected president of the United States, our enthusiasm over the possibility of his presidency couldn't have been any higher.
It began to dissipate a little bit with some of his underwhelming and outright bad cabinet picks and administration post fillings.
But even after, I think after the first month, we were there at the inauguration.
And after the first month, Jared Taylor was on that show along with myself, I think Sam Bushman, Eddie, and Keith, of course.
And we all gave Trump grades after the first month, and they ranged from B minus to A.
So it was still very good grades.
Now, though, six months later, Hunter Wallace of Occidental Descent has posted something I'd like to read.
And it pretty much captures, I think, overall my feelings.
But we'll share this with the audience, and then we'll let Keith respond.
So here was Hunter Wallace's take.
First, there was the disavowal of the alt-right on November 22nd.
Then there was the underwhelming cabinet picks, followed by the Paul Ryan policy agenda, which was coming into view.
It was only that one news cycle in which Trump exchanged harsh words with so-called civil rights icon John Lewis, which persuaded me to stay on board the Trump train.
It seemed reasonable to give Donald Trump a fair chance.
In spite of my concerns, I wasn't ready to write him off before he took the oath of office.
I decided to keep an open mind and give him the traditional 100 days.
We didn't get through those first 100 days before Syria happened.
As far as I'm concerned, that was the major inflection point.
Then we had the Ryan Care debacle and all the setbacks with executive orders in the courts.
More than anything else, it was those airstrikes which deflated my interest in the Trump administration.
I could trace the arc of my post as my interest in politics fizzled through March and my attention began to wander back to history.
Thankfully, we did never go to war in Syria and have negotiated yet another ceasefire.
The Supreme Court has since let the travel ban go back into effect until it rules in the fall.
The House of Representatives passed Cates Law and the No Sanctuary for Criminals Act.
Neil Gorsak was appointed to the Supreme Court.
There's been a sharp drop in illegal immigration on the Mexican border.
ISIS is on the verge of being defeated in the Middle East.
The stock market is doing great.
Still, though, the old excitement about the Trump administration never returned after the Syria strikes.
It was around that time that Gary Cohn, Jerry Kushner, and Ivanka became the dominant force in the West Wing.
Steve Bannon was publicly humiliated and sent to the doghouse.
The focus shifted to moving forward on the Paul Ryan agenda of health care, tax cuts, and deregulation.
The wall wasn't funded, and Trump flip-flopped on several other issues.
This was capped off by seeing what seemed like a half a dozen condemnations of the Holocaust and vows to fight anti-Semitism.
As we approach the six-month mark, I can't get over my disillusionment.
Broadly speaking, there hasn't been much in the way of real change.
The same taboos which were holding back our community two years ago have been preserved.
There hasn't been any big change in our foreign policy, our trade policy, or our immigration policy.
No big legislative accomplishments so far.
The massive cultural and economic problems which Trump highlighted during the campaign haven't been addressed with anything except the same conventional solutions.
It feels like the same people who were repudiated in the election are still in power.
America First seemed to promise more than this.
Maybe I'm just not seeing the great transformative things that Trump has been doing to make America great again.
It looks to me, though, like we're muddling through it.
I don't see it turning around at this point either.
Too harsh, Keith, right on target, or not hard enough.
Your take on Brad Griffin or Hunter Wallace, if you will, his take on the first six months.
Somewhere in the nether world between too harsh and right on target is where I would put this.
You've got to understand when you consider our other options over the past 50 years since John Kennedy's election.
Well, actually, since Dwight Eisenhower's election, he's trained the liberal train rolling in America.
This is the best candidate for president that we have had.
It's just unfortunate that we can't get Pat Buchanan to be president.
If Pat Buchanan were president and had a real chance at winning, that would be Nirvana.
But Nirvana, you know, there's no perfection this side of the grave, I've heard.
And as a result, you know, Trump is not perfect.
Trump is a New Yorker.
Trump has made all the necessary accommodations to succeed in business without really trying by being down with the Jewish agenda up in New York.
He has Jewish people that he does business with, relies on.
Some of them are in the cabinet.
They have their typical baleful influence on policy.
Gary Cohn, Munchkin, Jared Kushner, and Ivanka the convert, his daughter, have all basically tried to steer the ship of state to the left, and they've succeeded to a certain extent.
We are apparently still the puppet of the state of Israel in the Middle East.
Our foreign policy is a total captive.
But at least Trump seems to have been doing a few things around the edges.
For example, this ceasefire.
Basically, if you can get him to meet with a foreign leader like Vladimir Putin, he will reach an accommodation.
He will reach some type of common sense resolution of the problems.
That's why I have this faith that somehow his common sense will win out in the end.
I think that, but Hunter is absolutely right.
It was the bombing in Syria was stupid.
Bashar Assad is the best option that we'll ever have for a leader for Syria.
Jewish power and influence and the neoconservatives and their clean break memorandum trying to change all the regimes of the Muslim nations in the Middle East has been a disaster.
It's been a total and complete problem as far as our foreign policy and the expense of committing our military to police actions all over the world.
That is bad.
On the other hand, here on the home front, they're going to do everything they can to take him out.
There will be an impeachment trial, hide and watch.
They will not let this rest.
It's somewhat like the Hugh Freeze situation down at Ole Miss that we're going to talk about later.
That's the next segment.
We're going to really get into that if you don't know what happens.
Basically, the powers that be, the powers that be don't tolerate heretics gladly, and they will do everything they can to take them out.
Jewish power and influence is going to prove to America that they're large and in charge and that the people fly over country can vote for whoever they want to, but when all is said and done, more will be said than done.
That's what Trump has to face.
But at least we've got someone who obviously irritates the ever-living daylights out of them or else they would not be reacting the way they are.
And that is a big improvement over, let's say, the past 25 years, as far as I'm concerned.
There's no doubt he is superior to any president that we've had in my lifetime, and certainly infinitely better than Hillary.
And I think we can all agree on that.
Perhaps he is not living up to the unrealistic expectations we had based upon the rhetoric we got from Trump the candidate.
Maybe he set the bar unrealistically high, and that could be the case.
Still, I don't know if I'm more glad that he won or Hillary lost.
I certainly, I think, enjoyed watching all of those people who were at Hillary's victory party weeping and the utter destruction of the press when they were.
But it was, let's just say this.
Let's say this, James.
Just think about this.
Would you have been so happy if Hillary had lost if John McCain had won?
No, no, no, not at all.
Or have Mitt Romney won?
Of course not.
You know, that would have been tweedled and tweedled D, as George Wallace said famously.
I may have preferred Hillary over them, just to Sam Dixon, to follow up Sam Dixon's well-worn phrase, let the bad times roll.
If that's what the Republicans are going to offer, better than to just go ahead and be destroyed.
Well, at some point, things become unsalvageable.
You may like the fact that there's a hole in the hull of the Titanic, but there comes a point where you can't pump it out.
It's going down to the bottom.
And I'm afraid the ship of state of the United States may be fairly close to that point.
Trump may be our last chance.
And Trump, you know, we're going to talk about some of Trump's latest comments.
And Trump is right on target, unfortunately, on a lot of his criticisms of people in his cabinet.
All right, folks, a quick two-minute cap on the six-month assessment of Donald Trump's presidency, followed by no less than a half a dozen individuals that we have picked up on that are in the news.
That we're going to tell you why and our thoughts on them.
That's all coming up in the next segment.
Hold your breath and hold on tight.
Informing citizens.
Pursuing liberty.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
With Liberty News this hour, I'm Dennis Daly.
A police officer in Baltimore has been suspended the charge?
Planting drugs.
Two other officers were put on leave.
The Public Defender's Office released a copy of a video showing the drug arrest that happened back in January.
Details emerging now.
The officer is seen placing a can in an empty lot.
Two other officers watching him.
They leave the lot.
The officer then activates the camera.
As the officer returns, picks up the can and finds the drugs he's just planted.
The camera saves 30 seconds of the video prior to being activated.
The police commissioner says an investigation is underway, and police have not yet reached any conclusion.
A retired and disabled Marine was told that he'd have to give up some of his constitutional rights if he wants to take custody of his grandson.
A Michigan Department of Health and Human Services worker said, if you want to go care for your grandson, you'll have to give up some of your rights.
The government agent, backed up by a county judge, we know we're violating numerous constitutional rights, but if you do not comply, we will remove the boy from your home.
A lawsuit is being filed by the Second Amendment group.
You're listening to LibertyNewsDaily.com.
The county sheriff is the first line of defense in preserving the constitutional rights of all citizens.

With Liberty News, I'm Dennis Daly.
I'm Michael Hill, President of the League of the South.
I and my compatriots are Southern nationalists.
We seek the survival, well-being, and independence of the Southern people, our people.
The League wants a South that enjoys the sweet fruits of Christian liberty and prosperity, but our current situation won't allow it.
We must have our independence from Washington, D.C. and the globalists.
The present system cannot be reformed.
Without independence, we will continue down this path of destruction.
To us, this is not acceptable.
I'm asking you, Southern man and woman, to join us today to free the South.
Call us at 256-757-6789 or see our website at www.leagueofthesouth.com.
God save the South.
Welcome back.
Get on the show.
Call us on James's Dine at 1-866-986-6397.
I hope everybody was paying very close attention to our commercial break just then as you heard the newest ad to be rolled out on the political cesspool.
We are strengthening our partnership with the League of the South and very happy to have had Dr. Michael Hill both write the script and voice the new ad that is now airing in our rotation for the League of the South.
And thanks very much to Scott at Dixie Republic for helping to fund that ad.
DixieRepublic.com, everybody.
It's great when good people are able to work together in a collaborative manner, especially when we're all on the same page and pulling in the same direction.
So very excited to have a strengthened partnership with the League of the South.
And we'll talk more about that later on.
But just to wrap up the six-month assessment of Trump, I was on with Sam Bushman on Wednesday on the Liberty Roundtable show and we talked about this.
And I said it was a waste.
Of course, everybody can Monday morning quarterback and hindsight's always 20-20.
But I think anybody could have seen this.
Donald Trump won because of his position on the wall, his position on trade and jobs and reindustrializing, remanufacturing America, and, of course, his disdain of political correctness and the media.
Those were the three things more than anything that got Donald Trump elected president of the United States.
What did not get him elected President of the United States was his view on health care and tax reform.
Yes, repeal Obamacare was something that helped, but that's not even what he tried to do.
I said it was a silly political hill on which to stay your flag, to let the first defining issue of your presidency be health care.
Yes, not the hill you want to die on.
Health care, tax reform.
I said he should have started with the wall, the wall, the wall.
That the wall is something concrete, literally and figuratively.
That's something that you can see.
That's something that can be built, can be touched.
It's a signal.
It is something that no other president would have done.
That would have been a great first step.
Hang on.
Keith, I think your mic's off.
Try again.
No, it's still off.
How is it now?
There you go.
Okay, it's also something that's totally within the purview of the president's constitutional powers to do on his own.
And that is, you know, I'm sure it would be challenging to go up to the Supreme Court, but it would be something he could accomplish, at least theoretically, on his own without the cooperation of a Congress full of elites that basically don't want him there in the Republican Party any more than the Democrats want him in his current position as president.
All right.
And just the last thing on this, I said in the interview with Sam Bushman on Wednesday on his program, we're too far in the decline and moral rot of America to where marginal victories on the periphery are going to be enough to move the needle.
We need drastic and rash action, and tinkering with things that really aren't going to save America isn't doing it.
And see, let me just say this about the health care thing.
The problem with the health care issue is that Obamacare or the replacement that the Republican or the President Trump has proposed are both welfare programs.
Both greatly expand medical care for poor people, and that's the wrong direction to go into.
We need to go to the free market, and we need to try to make people self-sustaining by getting them good-paying jobs where they can afford to pay for their own health insurance rather than having the government provide for it through exchanges or otherwise.
We got an email, Keith, from one of our loyal listeners in London, England, and he said this about the Trump situation, the Trump assessment.
Anyone who paints Trump as a two-faced con man is exaggerating because he just isn't that sophisticated politically.
He flies by the seat of his pants, and many of his instincts are correct and good.
We mustn't forget the size of the enemy marshaled against him.
Ask yourself, why do they, and especially the Hebrew they, hate Trump so much?
I've never seen anything like the venom directed at him.
Our enemies know that Trump isn't Jesus Christ, but rather Don the Baptist.
And they are terrified of what he has awakened and the man who is coming in his wake.
Like you, I was convinced that Trump would win, but warned everyone that he would disappoint us.
But the more Trump disappoints the Leviathan he has roused, the more terrible will be its retribution.
Either way, Trump is good for us, and I think that's a very good and fair take.
That's it.
And they are coming after him hammering tongs.
Believe me, there will be an Armageddon in his presidency.
They plan to try to take him out just like they did Richard Nixon.
And if that doesn't work, they'll go to some plan B, which will be even more drastic.
I am convinced that they will not sit by idly and allow power to be taken from them.
All right, Keith, I know you want to talk about your alma mater, old miss, head football coach Hugh Freeze, in a scandal.
He's resigned.
We're about to get to that, but there's a couple of other people in the news that we can move through much more quickly.
Roy Moore, Judge Roy Moore, the Ten Commandments judge and from Alabama.
Not to be confused with Russell Moore.
How can you separate, how can you know the difference between Roy Moore and Russell Moore?
Roy Moore has a pair of testicles.
That's how you know.
And anyway, Roy Moore is running for governor of Alabama, so that's something worth watching.
Also, Corey Stewart, Corey Stewart, whose main platform in his bid for the Republican nomination of governor of Virginia was protecting the Confederate monuments.
He lost last month by 1% in the Republican primary to establishment Ed Gillespie.
Well, Corey Stewart now has revitalized his political career after very nearly becoming the Republican nominee for governor on a pro-Confederate platform.
Let me repeat myself.
Corey Stewart has now announced that he will be challenging Tim Kaine in the United States Senate election.
And he'll be much more valuable in that position, quite frankly, than he would be as governor of Virginia.
These are two good developments.
I'm glad that these guys haven't decided to check out too early.
We need people like this in positions of elected office here in America in today's world.
There are just too many of the other type, the appeasers, the cucks, and we don't need any more of those.
Ed Gillespie is definitely one of those.
His whole campaign is staffed with anti-Trumpers.
Yeah.
But we need Bull Conner.
But unless we consider death to be no excuse, we'll settle for Ray Moore and Corey Stewart.
Roy Moore.
Roy Moore, correct.
That's right.
And anyway, so those are campaigns worth watching as they continue to gain steam.
Keith, 30 seconds or less.
Jeff Sessions back in the news again.
A real heated exchange with Donald Trump.
Well, Donald Trump has hit the nail on the head.
It was a terrible development which opened Pandora's box for him to recuse himself from being in charge as he normally would be with any investigation into Trump's so-called Russia ties.
This has allowed the enemy to come in.
I told everybody that appointing a special prosecutor was job one if they want to follow the template of Watergate.
That's what they did.
Back in Watergate, they got rid of John Mitchell.
Then they got rid of his successor, and they appointed the little bowtide twerk from Yale, Archibald Cox.
And then when Richard Nixon fired him, which Donald Trump is getting ready to fire Mueller, then they put in a real bear, Leon Jaworski, as the special prosecutor, and he's the one who eventually nailed Nixon.
They intend to do the same thing, and it was a terrible development.
But on the other hand, Sessions knew that if he stayed in that, his entire stint as Attorney General would be defined by this.
He would be doing that exclusively.
That's one thing.
The second thing is he does have this antique sense of honor and says he shouldn't be involved in it because he had some prior knowledge and whatnot.
Well, that is fine and dandy, but we're in the brave new world of 2017, and you've got to use every available weapon in your arsenal to win.
And he should not have done that.
No, as we say, honor and playing by the rules are good things, and they work in high-trust, homogenous societies, but they today's America is not a high-trust, homogenous society.
Those kinds of virtues inhibit you when you're going up against degenerate animals who have no honor and will do anything they can to destroy you.
You cannot offer them those concessions.
So anyway, hey, bottom line on Jeff Sessions, we love the guy.
Jeff Sessions made a mistake by recusing himself.
Jeff Sessions should remain Attorney General.
Both of those things can and are true.
Now, the big question is, how do you stave off the special prosecutor situation?
Because, you know, for every mower, they've got another guy that's just as bad or worse waiting in the wings.
How can you do this?
You know, it may be an opportunity lost when Sessions recused himself.
If he could have stayed in there and weathered the storm, that was probably Trump's best hope for survival.
We've covered a lot of individuals who are making news.
Roy Moore, Jeff Sessions, Corey Stewart.
O.J. Simpson's a free man again.
You know, just two or three weeks ago, we relitigated the OJ trial and found him guilty.
And now he's rejoining society, no doubt, as a contributing member to it.
Right, Keith?
Well, look, what he did was child's play.
The thing that he went to jail for was child's play.
What he got off for, he was guilty, his homemade sin of.
You know, basically, it was a makeup or a payback prosecution, and he probably deserves to get out on that.
But on the other hand, Gil Garcetti, the political animal, the father of the current mayor of Los Angeles, is the guy that let him go by allowing the venue to be changed in his murgatron.
Let him try him and Compton, as you said, instead of where it should have been.
We'll be right back.
Okay, girls, about finished with your lesson on money.
Daddy, what is a buy-sale spread for gold coins?
Well, when you sell a gold coin to a coin shop that's worth, say, $1,200, you don't actually get $1,200.
But don't worry, we're members of UPMA now, so we don't have to worry about that.
Daddy, why somebody seals that gold?
We don't have any gold at the house.
It's stored safely in the UPMA vault, securely and insured.
But the SP 500 outperformed gold.
Daddy, gold is a bad investment.
Some people do think of it that way, but actually, gold is money.
And as members of the United Precious Metals Association, we can use our gold at any store, just like a credit card.
Or I can ask them to drop it right into Mommy and Daddy's bank account, because we're a UPMA member family.

We fought.
We learned.
We struggled.
We won.
Despite Obama's best efforts, the newspaper of the human resistance survives.
We have lived only to face a new nightmare, the war against the machines.
Read about our struggle in The Sovereign, newspaper of the resistance.
The Sovereign is a 24-page monthly tabloid newspaper about the war between man and machines.
We've tried reason.
We've tried legislation.
We've tried every peaceful means imaginable.
And all it's gotten us is shut out.
So now we fight the machines.
Order online today at thesovenews.com or find the sovereign at select newsstands.
Remember to read The Sovereign, newspaper of the resistance.
The human resistance's battle against the machines will be everlasting.
This is Mercy.
It was never our destiny to stop the age of Obama.
It was merely to survive it.
Welcome back.
To get on the show, call us on James's Dime at 1-866-986-6397.
The political cesspool has been around for so long that, and it's been high profile for so long that we have these, as the media likes to put it, ties to just about everybody.
So two other people, we're covering individuals who are making news of interest to us this hour.
And two, we saved the best two for last or the biggest two.
John McCain, of course, diagnosed with a very aggressive, malignant brain tumor.
I can't say I lost any sleep over that.
John McCain represents the worst about America that he possibly could.
My only wish.
Well, he's definitely the worst in the Republican Party.
Well, that's right.
That's right.
I guess it's possibly to be more degenerate.
Tim Kaine and Chuck Schumer, I think, are even worse than he is.
But as far as a Republican, he is the flying the ointment.
Well, the only thing I can say is Satan's licking his chops because he knows another one's about to come down and join him.
But beyond that, I just wish that everything that John McCain represented would die with him.
Unfortunately, those things are going to live much longer.
And Trump was right.
He is a phony war hero.
Let us go on record to say that.
He is known to his captors at the Hanoi Hilton as the songbird because he gave them so much information under threat of torture that basically he was a running joke at the Hanoi Hilton's captors.
He is about to go on to eternity.
But TPC is linked to him, I guess you could say.
So everybody remembers the Eddie Miller sheriff Paul Babu flap.
Paul Babu was, of course, a sheriff in Pinawa County, Arizona, with whom Eddie had struck up a great rapport and even a fledgling friendship.
Babu had invited Eddie to come down and do a ride-along with him.
Then this huge scandal breaks.
Paul Babu having homosexual relations with illegal aliens.
Underage illegal aliens.
Well, we don't know.
That was alleged.
There were some allegations of that.
I don't know if he was underage at the time.
So we will say alleged.
But definitely homosexual illegal aliens, nevertheless.
If that's not enough for you, then you're listening to the wrong program.
But we got into, you know, we didn't know that at the time, but the media made a big deal that he had appeared on our show.
If anyone was sullied by his appearance on the political cesspool, it was certainly us and not him.
But of course, he disavowed Eddie.
And it even became a talking point in the campaign, the senatorial campaign between John McCain and J.D. Hayworth a few years back.
So Paul Babu was appearing in this John McCain television ad, hawking McCain for Senate.
That should be another red flag.
And J.D. Hayworth, who was supposed to be the conservative between the two, of course, came down saying, how can you have this sheriff on your campaign staff?
How can you have him be a surrogate?
He appeared on this white supremacist show, and John McCain and J.D. Hayworth went back and forth about the political cesspool.
Anyway, so that was interesting.
So there's TPC's link to John McCain.
Now, Hugh Freese, the head coach of the University of Mississippi Ole Miss football team, Hugh Freeze was once, wait for it, my teacher, my teacher at Briarcrest Christian School.
The running joke at Briarcrest was all the parents were excited when their kids graduated from Briarcrest because they knew they were going to get a tuition break by only having to pay for them to go to college.
I think it was about $10,000 to go to kindergarten at Briarcrest.
But anyway, Hugh Freese was one of my teachers there.
I didn't think much of him then.
I don't think much of him now.
I think even less of him now.
He cucked big time on the Confederate flag.
I am glad he is in this scandal.
I am glad he is suffering.
I am glad he resigned.
Am I being too hard on him?
Probably.
Here's what I think, okay?
I look at this through a somewhat different lens.
First of all, just like with politicians, if you expect to see some politician come out and embrace the Confederate flag or embrace Confederate monuments or things like this, you're living in a parallel universe.
That is not today's America.
If you have one of these jobs like Hugh Freeze, who was 15 years ago coaching girls' high school basketball at Briarcrest, and suddenly he's making $5 million a year, that comes with a lot of conditions and a lot of control.
He is subject to his puppet masters.
He's not going to come out and be the type of person that we would regard as heroic here on the political assessment.
But if everybody's just going to betray any sense of decency for the right amount of money, nothing's ever going to change.
And so I hold him accountable for that.
Look, I understand that.
And it's just like criticizing Donald Trump.
You know, it's remarkable that we got a man that's as stand-up a guy as Donald Trump as president in today's America as Donald Trump is.
Yeah, but I would say this, though.
The only thing I will say, because everybody's got an opinion, everybody in the Peanut Gallery likes to talk.
We have held the line.
We have held the line under intense media scrutiny.
We can relate somewhat to what these people are going through.
We have walked through the fire.
And because we have done that, we do have the authority to pass judgment on these other people.
But anyway, and that's why we're impoverished, by the way.
They never took our dignity and they never took the love of our audience.
That's right.
We are heroes.
And I think Richard Spencer said it, in order to be a hero, you must first be a villain.
And if you can stand up to being a villain, then you will one day be a hero.
And we're a hero to people.
I don't think Hugh Freeze is a hero to anybody.
No, no, look, he shouldn't be.
But on the other hand, let's take a look at the world that we're in.
He's designed.
We're in a fallen world, a terribly fallen world, a world that is subject to Jewish power and influence.
Hugh Freeze made the unpardonable sin.
There was an old commercial about a margarine brand that said it tasted just like butter, and they give it to this fat actress who's supposedly playing Mother Nature, and they ask her if it's butter or margarine.
She says it's butter, and she says, it's not nice to fool Mother Nature, and she zaps them with a thunderbolt.
Well, that's what is happening with Hugh Freeze.
If you're in the SEC, if you're in college football, you don't beat the University of Alabama two years in a row, and he could have beaten them last year, but pulled his punch.
He could have had one more on-side kick, probably won that game.
He sealed his fate.
You don't come up with a perennial doormat like old Miss and start challenging for the SEC title.
That's what he did.
They wanted him out at all costs.
And that's why this NCAA investigation just kept going on and on and on.
It was like the 100 years war.
And they weren't going to give up until they had Hugh Freeze's head on a pike.
Now, what did they get him for?
Well, heaven forbid he committed adultery.
At least that's the claim.
All they basically have is a phone call to an escort service, quote unquote, which they assume is a front for prostitution.
I'd like to see the proof that he actually did commit adultery.
But we live in a world, James, in which homosexuality is considered not only normal, but commendable.
When transgenderism.
Yeah, you know, Bruce Jenner is the ESPN, Sports Illustrated Man of the Year.
I agree with you 100% on where you're going with this.
I couldn't care less if, in fact, Hugh Freeze called an escort service.
I mean, that bothers me not at all.
What about your hoo-ha is that?
Compared to everything they passed is healthy and good.
What do you think Title IX is in all these women's sports?
It's the Full Employment Act for lesbians.
Are now basically rewarding lesbians by giving them free rides to college to play sports that nobody cares two hoots in hell about and nobody goes out and watches.
If you read the headlines, the headlines lead you to believe that the reason Hugh Freeze resigned as the head coach of the OLD MISS football team is because of this one-minute phone call to an escort agency in Michigan.
But uh, does that hold?
No see, this is that they basically said they've got his head on the pike.
I guarantee you somebody's gonna shuffling money under the table for uh taking the fall.
Now OLD MIST can descend to its accustomed position as doormat.
The people running the SEC will be happy.
The Jews at ESPN will be happy.
Uh, Nick Sabin will be happy.
Everybody will be happy.
Everything will go back to equilibrium.
Uh, it's not nice to fool mother nature.
That's why the media is so uh in high dudgeon about Donald Trump.
That's why they decided that they had to get rid of Hugh Freeze.
This is just more of the same in today's controlled America.
We think we live in a free nation.
People, you're dreaming.
We don't live in a free nation.
Everything is being controlled, everything.
Money talks and bs walks, and everything except money is bs, at least in college sports uh, in other aspects of our lives.
Advancing the Liberal revolution is important and anybody that bucks the system you're going to have a Solonist show trial, like Hugh Freeze is undergoing right now.
They're going to take you before the dock.
You can confess all you want, it doesn't matter.
Uh, they're going to show that nobody bucks the system and gets away with it.
Donald Trump or Hugh Freeze, mark my words, hide and watch.
All right Keith, we will talk a little bit more about this in the next hour.
God knows, we beat it nearly to a pulp, but everyone remembers what happened at the Southern Baptist Convention a couple of weeks ago last month, I guess it was.
They've beaten us to a pulp, is what they said.
Well, the Southern Baptist leadership listen to this.
A black minister, so-called in the Southern Baptist Convention, writes an op-ed in the NEW YORK Times.
Listen to what he said.
I've had enough.
This is what a black southern Baptist preacher writes in the NEW YORK Times this week.
Today, i'm officially renouncing my ordination in the Southern Baptist Convention, the country's largest protestant body with about 15 million members and the world's largest Baptist denomination.
My reasoning is simple, as a black scholar of race and a minister who's committed to social justice.
I can no longer be part of an organization that is complicit in the disturbing rise of the alt-right.
Listen, what planet is this man?
Well, what it shows is the futility of striving to please the social justice warriors and the left, these people like Steve Gains and Russell Moore, these evangelistists that have taken over the southern Baptist Uh denomination, just like they took over the Episcopalians, the Presbyterians, the Methodists.
There's no, nothing to be gained.
It doesn't matter what you do.
You offend 99 of your members in order to try to please one percent, and the one percent walks out on you.
Listen, that is a great teaser.
We will bring back more of this in the second hour.
