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.
Hey, joy to the world.
That's right.
Jesus Christ, and we celebrate his birth at Christmas time, and that's what we're going to celebrate this hour.
We're going to celebrate it with you, ladies and gentlemen.
It is very difficult to put down the sword, especially this week when we have suffered such an incredible injustice.
But we're going to do it the week before Christmas, and we're just going to celebrate what we have.
And what we have is— Think only happy thoughts.
Well, I mean, you know, there's something therapeutic about that, but much more than that.
I mean, we have to pause.
You can't battle incessantly.
You have to have times of fellowship and good cheer.
And certainly we had that in Memphis a few weeks ago, a couple of months ago.
And we're going to have it right now in this, our third and final hour.
And what we're going to do is we're going to read, we're going to take an extended dip into the TPC listener mailbag.
And I got to tell you, my wife, I posted this at the website a couple of days ago.
My wife returned home from checking the P.O. box of the radio program earlier this week.
And, you know, when your mailbox overflows, they put it in one of these USPS plastic bins.
And so she brought in this plastic bin that was just literally overflowing with Christmas cards and personal letters from listeners from all around the world.
And I want you to know from my heart to yours and from Keith and from Eddie and Sam and Scoop and Sean Bergen and Jim Lanzio, Jack Ryan, who did I not mention?
Scoop Winston.
I mean, everybody that makes this show go art.
How heartwarming that is.
I couldn't possibly put into words the honor that it is to host a program that informs and educates and inspires an audience that is so loyal and so generous.
You have been and still remain, ladies and gentlemen, one of the greatest blessings that God has ever bestowed upon me.
And sure, there's storm clouds on the horizon.
I mean, as we have talked about tonight, and there's always a problem with funding.
But at the end of the day, we do have one another, and at least we've got that.
And there's nothing more we could really ask for.
That is financially.
And we felt that.
It was quite palpable at our meeting in Memphis.
And we feel it through the emails.
I am so woefully behind on emails.
I mean, hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of emails, dozens and dozens and dozens of text messages.
Like I said, my voicemail doesn't even keep up with it anymore.
It just says plus.
When I look to see how many voicemails, I need to get back on all of that.
I need to get back in touch with so many great people who have reached out.
But I tell you what, to have built something that has elicited that sort of response, Keith, is the highest of honors.
There's nobody else I'd rather be because I don't want any audience other than the one we've got.
And I think you agree with us.
Absolutely.
We've got the salt of the earth supporting us.
And just reviewing these Christmas cards, you know, doubles down on that observation.
You read these Christmas cards and you realize, one, how sincere, one, how committed, and thirdly, how good, how innately good everybody is that is a listener, a regular listener of this political cesspool.
And so we're about to get into it.
Now, that being said, the work is not done.
And we appreciate the sentiments.
We appreciate the well-wishes and all of these Christmas cards.
And we're going to read from them.
We are going to read from them at the top of the next segment.
We may even start in this segment, but we do need your support.
We do need your support.
I am so happy to receive.
I tell you, it's heartwarming.
It means the world.
We wish you and yours the very best during the spiritual time of faith and family.
The spirit of togetherness is something that we have built with our audience very organically.
It's something beautiful.
It's something that has grown as a result of many years of trust and mutual respect that we have for you and that you apparently have for us.
And we need each other now more than ever before.
We ask you to help us continue.
Help us continue.
If you have not yet contributed to the political cesspool, this is not a fundraising plug, although we do need the support, and I'm going to mention it because we do.
If you've not yet done it, please do it now.
Please do it tonight.
Do it before Christmas.
And you can go to our website, thepolitical cesspool.org.
You can contribute online safely and securely.
We've got an all-new payment processor.
How do I know it works flawlessly?
Because I've used it four times.
I've donated every week that we've had it up to the show out of my personal funds to the program.
I ask you to do it because I do it.
And if you donate $100 or more, you're going to get a book, a very inspirational book, a call to arms, in fact.
Southerner, Take Your Stand.
It was written by John Vinson, who is a friend of ours, a man that I know.
Southerner, Take Your Stand.
Earlier this month, I had originally planned to offer that as the incentive in April during our first quarter fundraising driver in March, I should say, right before Confederate History Month in April, because of the title, Southerner, Take Your Stand.
I said, you know, something tells me to go ahead and do it now.
And now, with the removal of the Nathan Bedford Forrest, could there be a more timely book than Southerner Take Your Stand that we could offer you this Christmas for your Christmas fundraising contribution?
$100 or more, we'll send you that book.
Donate online tonight, ladies and gentlemen.
We need it.
We're fighting.
We're struggling.
I mean, we were shut down in November with the ability to bring in online contributions.
We're back up and running now.
It works like a charm.
You can actually put in your information and check and see your all-time contributions to the political cesspool.
And then you don't have to re-enter all the information when you come back because you're going to be a regular contributor.
It's all right there.
So it's a great system, but we need your help.
We need you to contribute tonight.
And with that being said, let's get to the mailbag.
So, Keith, what you see, well, where is it here?
What you see me holding.
Well, I'll put it over here.
You never know where Christmas cards are going to go.
A sampling.
Okay.
Just, what is that?
I don't know.
A few inches thick of cards.
Just a sampling of stuff that has come in from all over the country.
So let's get right down to it.
So this, and we're going to do this for the next couple of segments.
We haven't done it at all this month.
We normally give a roll call.
We normally give the cities from which our contributors are sending in funds.
We give them a shout out.
We haven't done it.
But let's do that now.
Let's do even more than that and actually read the correspondence.
And of course, we'll keep discreet the names and locations of some of these people.
But how about this?
Dear James, blessed to have you.
I believe that God has had a plan for you before you were born.
You speak the truth.
I'm very proud for you doing that.
God will require much of you in the days to come.
I pray that He will strengthen us for the struggle against evil and grant us victory.
I want to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas.
And that comes from Bob in Nashville.
He points out that we are pro-white, pro-South, and pro-Christian program, which of course makes us very unique.
Well, that's just the beginning of it, ladies and gentlemen.
Wait till you hear your card read.
Hopefully.
Your name, your city shouted out.
It's all coming up as we take in our last hour before Christmas a dip at the TPC mailbag.
It's coming your way next, and then we've got a couple of other things to wrap up the hour with.
So stay tuned for all of it.
Keith's going to give you his thoughts as well.
Stay tuned.
Every day I wake up, it's almost like a battle.
Just like, well, you know, I could do this today.
I could go get drunk.
I don't like beer.
I'm an alcoholic because I can't, you know, stop drinking because it alters my mind, but I don't like alcohol.
And I had to keep telling myself that, you know, this is okay.
Everybody does this.
My whole life was just a big lie.
I can't control if I do take that drink because I'm an addict and I can't.
I admit yesterday's messed me up.
I don't have a very good memory, but I have a hard time remembering things when I learn.
I can't concentrate on one thing for more than five or ten minutes.
You have fun until you get rocked bottom and it's not fun anymore.
I remember sitting in assemblies about drugs and I thought that's never going to happen to me.
I'm never going to be like those kids.
Here I am.
The choices that you make are choices you're going to have to live with.
A public service message from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Many of you have heard me talk about my vigor score.
You say, Sam, what on earth is all this vigor stuff about?
Well, vigor is defined as zest for life.
Your strength in body and mind, your energy levels.
It's kind of all wrapped into a term called vigor.
Would you like to improve your vigor score?
Well, you got to first take the free test.
Get a hold of Kurt, C-U-R-T, at LibertyRoundtable.com or call Kurt Cosby at 801-669-2211.
I took the test, got a 13 out of 32.
Horrible, huh?
But I worked on it with Kurt with some natural health and healing.
And before you know it, now I've got an astounding 29 out of 32 on the vigor score.
Can you tell by the way I talk?
Oh, yes, my zest for life has never been better.
Get a hold of Kurt Cosby.
That's 801-669-2211 and take your free vigor test today and you can learn where you stand.
And then you can work on improving it and take the test again.
And oh, compare the results.
You will be delighted.
Get a hold of Kurt Cosby, Kurt, C-U-R-T, at LibertyRoundtable.com or 801-669-2211 for your free vigor score test today.
As a parent, is receiving a faith-based, character-focused education for your children difficult to find?

And now back to tonight's show.
Angels we have heard on high singing sweetly through the night.
Beautiful music.
Such a beautiful time of the year.
Such beautiful sentiments and such beautiful people that we have in this audience.
Now, Keith, I've really got a jam.
And I've really got to work through a lot of these cards as quickly as I can this segment because we're going to transition in the third and fourth segments, our final two segments before Christmas.
So we've got to get to this quickly, but there's something you wanted to share with the audience that I guess it was.
We've been having an off-mic discussion about telling your children the truth about Santa Claus.
Well, what I say is that don't ever let anybody tell you that Santa Claus doesn't exist because Santa Claus is basically a spirit.
It's a spirit that resides within each of us and really needs to manifest itself at Christmas.
It's the spirit of sharing, of realizing that the more you give in life, the more you get.
This is what is, you know, makes us distinctly human rather than just higher animals.
A symbolism of Christ.
And of course, that is part of Christmas.
Christmas is a patchwork holiday like Halloween, like Easter.
The Christian faith adopted some pagan symbols or some secular symbols, I guess I could say.
But it all worked for the glory of God.
Now, let's get back to these Christmas cards, which do the same.
And the one thing I want you to listen to, ladies and gentlemen, is the places from which we've received this correspondence.
Now, we read a more lengthy card from Bob in Nashville earlier.
How about this?
TPC gang, keep up the wonderful work.
You never let us down.
And this comes from Micah in Mardella Springs, Maryland.
This card with a beautiful red cardinal on it, Merry Christmas.
And this comes from Bill and Chino, California.
Some people send in letters like Gus from Florida.
James, many thanks to you and your partners in the studio and outside of the South.
Voices of reason, truth, and realism in an impossibly absurd and darkening era.
We sense that the environment can only get worse for descendants of America's founding stock and white European Christians everywhere.
And most alarmingly, uncertain futures for our treasured progeny.
Please accept my small contribution to keep you going.
Merry Christmas to you and all of you.
And may 2018 bring miracles.
And that comes from Gus.
Let me make a quick comment on that.
I think that we need to realize, and I hope that the removal of these statues in Memphis is a turning point.
That people can be black, white, red, yellow, and be advocates for black people or anybody but white people.
It's time that we started demanding the same right that everybody else has and demand that we have advocates in government that represent our interests as white people.
And we're going to have to insist upon that and purge all white politicians that will not do that.
Thought we were laying down the sword this hour.
You're still fighting.
Now, look, we got to read these cards.
Now, this is a guy, Jimmy.
Well, I was just expanding on Gus's comment.
Absolutely, Keith.
Jimmy from Euphrata, Washington.
He was at our event in Memphis a couple of months ago.
He actually sent a card to all of us individually.
And this comes from Jimmy, dear James and family, wishing you all the special things that bring you joy and happiness at Christmas.
And that's from Jimmy in Washington, one of our most loyal quarterly contributors.
And he sent a very nice, very lengthy personal letter as well.
How about this?
Kathy in Edmonton, Alberta.
Dear James, I received your book, Racism and Schmaisism.
Can you believe those things still sell last month?
I'm still savoring it, rationing it like a dessert.
I will be sending you a donation in the new year when the post is no longer clogged with Christmas mail.
And that comes from Kathy in Alberta.
Thank you, dear lady, for that.
From Troutdale, Virginia, Pam and Dennis with a very beautiful card.
Greetings of the season.
May your Christmas be peaceful and bright as a newly fallen snow.
Let's see what we have here.
Political Cesspool, thank you for your very fine work and a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
This was accompanied by a contribution by William and Dolores, Colorado.
All over the South and beyond, Keith.
This is from our single biggest contributor in the United States, Buddy in Jonesboro, Arkansas.
Dear James, you and Michael Hill did a wonderful job with your comments on the Roy Moore situation.
That was last week's show.
Hey, buddy, we wouldn't be on the air without you.
I mean that.
You know that.
I love you and your wife.
You're two of the dearest, sweetest, most generous people I've ever met in my life.
From Irvine, California, from the south to occupied territory, Irvine, California.
Dear James and family, many thanks.
And Merry Christmas.
That comes from Mark in Irvine, California.
I love cards like this.
This comes from a family in Carmel, New York.
Carmel, New York.
And this is a family of, I got to count them here.
I got so many Christmas cards like this.
You won't believe it.
One, two, three, four, five.
I think six children in this picture.
Beautiful family in Carmel.
I don't want to say their name because I don't know how big that city is.
But thank you for that.
Phil in Granite City, Illinois.
Here's a small donation for the Cesspool boys.
Merry Christmas.
So there's one from Illinois.
Here comes a great picture from Patrick in Great Neck, New York.
Please accept my humble donation.
As I know, you have many expenses to attend to, and I want to do my small part in easing that burden.
I know I say it every time.
I wish it was more.
Regarding your anniversary party this year, I listened to the program on your weekly broadcast, and I have to tell you that I was seething with envy and disappointment that I was not there to participate in the activities.
Amazing group of people and guests and speakers that attended.
I wish I was there.
Keep us posted on your events and your travels.
I still listen to your show every week.
It is so enjoyable.
Your host and your co-host are unmatched.
That comes from Patrick and New York.
He himself has a very big family, Keith.
If we can count the kids here.
Oh, my goodness, Patrick.
One, two, three, four, five children from Patrick and New York.
Wow.
Sam would say that's a small family.
Yeah, that's right.
Hey, Barb and Joe in Fort Smith, Arkansas.
And they sent us a beautiful card with a rocking horse and a teddy bear on it.
Listen to your show as much as possible.
Congratulations on staying and growing.
That comes from Barb and Joe, dear friends of mine.
I've known them for a long time.
I'll drop that one.
That's a bill.
Let's see here.
This comes from Brent in Montgomery, Alabama.
Thank you for everything you do.
Looking forward to receiving the quarterly incentive, which is going to be John Vinson's book, Southerner, Take Your Stand.
This comes from a listener in Seal, Alabama.
Thank you for all you do for our folk.
That's Lynn in Seal, Alabama.
Brian from Pleasant Hill, Iowa.
Thank you for all you do for our people.
We get that a lot.
Yeah.
Thank you, James, for all your work.
Someone needs to do it.
It's a job Americans won't do.
I guess we'll have to find immigrants to become advocates for white people.
Thank you for all your work and courage.
Nancy in Louisville, Kentucky, as we continue to bounce around the country.
God bless you and yours.
The Political Assessment is an inspiration to all men and women of goodwill.
That comes from Stephen in Sherwood, Arkansas.
What do we have here?
From Frank in Seattle, Washington.
Frank was with us at the anniversary event as well last month.
Frank in Seattle says his Christmas wishes.
Look at this on the legal paper.
I like the handwritten app.
Is that a summons?
James, I had a hell of a time at the party in Memphis.
It was good to see you and all the others.
Merry Christmas.
That comes from Brian in Arkansas, who is with us.
If I know we're going to get one contribution, Brian's one of the ones I know we're going to get from every quarter.
What do we have here?
I listen to you guys regularly.
Appreciate your program very much.
There don't seem to be many news talk shows out there that are pro-white and pro-Christian.
You guys were the originals.
Keep up the nice work.
That comes from Brent, also in Seattle, Washington.
Did you ever think you'd have a fan in Seattle, Keith?
No, I didn't.
We flabbergasted.
We'll come back a little more from the mailbag, and then we're going to wrap up the show and celebrate the majesty of Christmas.
Stay tuned. Protecting your liberty.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
Liberty is not free.
Its costs are innumerable.
Without monetary funding, the valiant efforts of freedom-loving Americans become diminished or outright defeated.
We present a solution, the Give Me Liberty Fund.
The plan is quite simple: invite individual Americans to contribute less than a dollar a day.
These monetary funds are used to promote liberty-minded media, organizations, events, candidates, movements, and speakers.
In the spirit of transparency, all expenditures are published.
Patriotic business owners provide discounted products and services to Give Me Liberty Fund members.
Our greatest strength is in numbers.
Go to GiveMeLibertyFund.com and become part of the solution today.

Participate in the peaceful restoration of the greatest and freest country in the world.
Ladies and gentlemen, what is the KQ?
You know, the kosher question.
Most Americans purchase their groceries while having no idea that almost every essential food product on the shelves is certified kosher by one of over a thousand rabbinical agencies across the country.
Indeed, the kosher question encompasses not only food and religion, but also affects our economics and politics.
In an effort to promote awareness to this kosher question, developers have recently published an app for your smartphone that will not only educate users on this little-known phenomenon, but also features a database of food products that have not been kosher certified.
The CoCertified app has prominent advertisement on TPC's homepage, or you can check out its website at co-certified.com.
Wouldn't it be proof to start eating in favor of your own interests?
The CoCertified app will be your start.
Download it now at co-shirtify.com.
That's K-O-S-C-H-E-R-T-I-F-I-E-D dot com.
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 saved us out.
Welcome back.
To get on the show, call us on James' Dime at 1-866-986-6397.
Listen to this story, everybody, very quickly.
So earlier this week on the Liberty Roundtable broadcast, hosted by Sam Bushman, LibertyRoundtable.com, Jared Taylor was on the program to talk about the Twitter purge.
This was maybe Tuesday, Wednesday.
And Jared said, you know, that was an incredible saxophone play.
Who was that?
And Sam said he played that particular rendition of Vave Maria just because it was a saxophone player.
And, of course, Jared is, you know, clarinetist and regaled us at the anniversary party in October.
And it was Kenny G. Keith actually brought that up.
He just said, hey, that's Kenny G. You might have heard that in the last coming through there a minute ago when we were in queue.
But anyway, back to a couple more Christmas cards.
This comes in from the Roman family.
Christmas blessings from the Roman family.
And once again, we have a family.
This was very much the rule rather than the exception.
The Roman family has one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine children.
That is almost Mormon-esque.
That's almost something that would make it.
That's almost a mid-sized family for Sam and Kurt.
But, I mean, beautiful families.
And we got one from, you know, of course, our good friends in Bodark, Missouri.
You know who you are.
Got that Christmas card today.
But they also came in from around the world, Keith.
Beautiful, classic Christmas card here from London, England.
Our good friend John in London, who always tells us to keep punching.
God knows, John, we always will.
Hi, James.
Many, many, many thanks for all you do at the Cesspool.
Keep punching John.
And that's from London.
And then we have here from Clive in Kent over there in the UK.
Do you know Kent?
Yeah, Kent is one of the counties.
To James, Keith, Eddie, Winston, Sam, Scoop, and Sean.
From Clive and family, thank you for another exhilarating year of honest and I don't know that word.
What?
I can't read it.
That word?
Yeah.
Good night.
Let me get here in the light.
Oh, never mind.
Basically, he just says, thank you for another year of honest broadcasting.
I can't read the handwriting.
Iconoclastic.
Oh, okay.
Iconoclastic broadcasting.
There you go.
Thank you, Keith.
Well, they did pour in from all around the world, and it's not just the ones that we read.
And that was just, I just literally stuck my hand into the bag, and that's what I pulled out.
It was not done purposefully.
It was not done intently.
It was done just because I wanted a representative sampling, and I didn't want to pick and choose.
I just grabbed into it, and that's what we got out.
But I will tell you, I will tell you this, the first Christmas card that we received at all, I mean, my family, anybody, the very first Christmas card I received from anybody, not from my parents, not from any relatives.
It came from Rich in Janice.
Yours did too.
Absolutely.
And of course, they're very dear friends of ours, very largely responsible for their generosity is for keeping us on the air.
That was the very first Christmas card that I received.
Mine too.
Not from my wife.
There you go.
But here are some more that we received in contributions as well.
You know, we have one black listener and one Jewish listener.
The Jewish listener is in Michigan and the black one is in Philadelphia.
He happens to be an attorney in Philadelphia and he donates every quarter.
Can you believe it?
Wonderful.
And we receive his correspondence and we appreciate it as much as anyone's.
Sam in Birmingham, Alabama.
Bill in Hazard, Kentucky.
David in Beaumont, Texas.
Also, our number one contributor outside of the states is, of course, Keith up in Alberta, Canada.
Although he is very, very closely chased by Peter in Australia as our two biggest international contributors.
And they donate every single quarter.
But we've got so many others like the Trad, the brothers in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Such an incredible pair of siblings down there in Sao Paulo who donate every quarter.
You know, Salty Sid in Silver Springs.
Absolutely.
Well, he's Jewish too.
We've got two.
I'll be damned.
Now, there's some people whose names I don't want to put with the town because some of these towns are so little, they may be one of 10 people there.
But we've got Steve in Essington, Pennsylvania.
We received something from David in Lawrenceville, Kentucky.
Thank you for your contribution, sir.
Another contribution from, I never do get this right.
I think it's East Islip, not Islep.
East Islip, New York.
I'm not going to even draw.
You see this here, this water stain.
I set my water on top of this piece of paper and it's faded out the ink.
So I can't read all of these cities, but I know we've received support.
I can't read that anymore.
Dumas, Arkansas, of course, Scott.
The ding-dong daddy from Doomas.
Scott, and of course, the Dixie Republic crew.
And Travelers Rest, South Carolina, our sponsors.
Pete in San Marcos, California.
There's this guy, Robert, in Murfersboro, Tennessee.
Every time we send out a fundraising appeal every quarter, and of course we're in our Christmas fundraising drive right now, Robert sends in a check for $3 every time.
Not $40.
I love you, not two.
But I tell you, yeah, we do.
That's the point.
I mean, the point is, yes, everybody does what they can with what they've got.
But this man always takes the time for years and years and years.
Every time I send out a fundraising appeal for the show, I know Robert's going to send back his $3.
And God bless you, Robert.
He's our equivalent of Jay Paul Getty.
David Loves Park, Illinois.
There's so many people who donate every quarter.
And there's some people that donate once a year.
There's some people who've never donated before.
We always get new donors.
And there's some people who don't who quit donating it, but we've gotten contributions from Valley, Alabama, Brick, New Jersey, Mont Vale, New Jersey, Todd and his crew here in Memphis and Collierville, Diamond Head, Mississippi, Baldwin,
New York, Beecher, Illinois, Nicholas, California, Champaign, Illinois, Naples, Florida, Ford City, Pennsylvania, Cleveland, Ohio, Colias, Maine.
Wow, we got Maine.
Yeah, Maine.
We covered that one about.
We covered Maine this month.
Lawrenceburg, Tennessee.
I could go on and on.
Yeah, I think we have checked off.
I don't think we've received anything from Hawaii or Alaska yet.
Well, we haven't received things from Finland and Sweden before.
That's right.
Well, no, I'm talking about, of course, before we've covered it all, but I'm talking about just this month.
And most of these donations are $25 or less.
Obviously, some people, you know, donate $100 or more to get the incentive.
Of course, that helps us a lot.
But all of them, whether it's $3, $100, $250, we always say give till it hurts.
Some people have a low threshold of pay.
Hey, but it all adds up, and it all accumulatively keeps us on the air.
But there's one more thing I'd like to say.
I received a note from you talking about people who contribute every quarter.
And there is this guy, Wes, in Cotaldo, Idaho.
And he has donated every quarter for as many, many years as I can remember, maybe all the way back to the very beginning.
And just this week, I received a letter in the mail from his address.
I was like, well, there's Wes again, just like always.
But it was a letter from his sister saying that her brother had passed away.
And we get those from time to time.
Take this person off the mailing list.
They've passed away.
And it's awful.
And I can tell you that I was very much crestfallen.
I had never talked to this man in person.
I had never talked to him over the phone.
I don't think he had called into the program before.
Sam Bushman apparently knows him.
He's talking to me right now.
But he was big on vaccines.
And he had sent me some books on vaccines.
And he would always send me these emails.
But I don't think I've ever talked to him one-on-one and I never met him.
But just through his listenership and his contributions and his correspondence, I felt like he was very much a brother, and he was.
And now he's gone.
And of course, yes, I mean, people die.
We lose contributors to death and to father time.
And they get called home.
But I read that and I was like, man, even though I never talked to this guy, I felt a familial bond with him.
And it's very much put a damper on my week.
And I feel that way for everybody out there.
I feel that way for our audience.
I think they feel that way for us, judging by this correspondence, they do.
We are a family.
We will fight together.
We will live together.
We will die together if we have to.
But please, ladies and gentlemen, support us while you can.
Tomorrow is not guaranteed for us to even be alive, much less for us to continue to be on the air.
If you've not yet contributed this month, stand up and join the list of people who have.
We've got rough seas ahead of us, folks, and we need everybody with their back to the ore, putting their back into it.

Do it tonight.
Do it before Christmas.
Help us out and go into 2018.

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.
Okay, girls, about finished with your lesson on money?
Daddy, what is a buy-sell 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 is somebody seal 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.

Welcome back.
get on the show call us on
nothing quite like the mormon take us into christmas And this is our last segment before Christmas.
Can you believe it?
Tomorrow, just a couple of hours away as we broadcast live this evening at 8.48 p.m. Central Standard Time.
We're just a couple of hours away from Christmas Eve and then Christmas.
And we're actually going to wrap up the show tonight by reminding you of the majesty of Christmas and what Christmas is all about.
We should have spent more time on it tonight, honestly, but because of the situations, I guess evil never sleeps and so the battle never ceases.
But we are going to do that before the end of the broadcast.
This has been a phenomenal year in the political cesspool.
And we're going to have next week.
So this is our last show before Christmas, obviously.
Next week will be our last show of calendar year 2017.
And we're going to do a year in review show, a very special show next week in which we recount some of the highlights of our broadcasting year, both on the air and in the streets and off the air and some of the other activities we've participated in.
And I was really a little surprised at all that we had done this year.
Not that I didn't expect to do a lot, but there were some things that even I forget as a few months pass and you look back and wow, yeah, that did happen earlier this year.
And so we're going to share all of those instances with you next week that we think were particularly significant and it's going to be hopefully a fun festive show.
Hopefully none of us die or no other graves get desecrated between now and New Year's, although you never know.
And that's going to be coming up for you next week.
Now, one of the things, of course, that we had this year that has been quite taxing has been my, well, what would we call it? My adventures into the just us system and Jay, who is a contributor to Red 42.
I think he hosted it for Scoop this week.
And also Jim's regular partner on the cop shootout show on YouTube.
That would be Jim Lancia.
Jay has something he wants to share with us very quickly before we focus on Christmas in the last couple of minutes of the program tonight.
Jay, what do you got?
Are you there, Jay?
You know, Jay's been waiting for, I think, two hours to get on with this.
And I hope we – are you there, Jay?
Yes.
Falling asleep.
Okay, there he is.
No, our mistake.
All right, take it away.
What do you got for us?
Okay, I'll make this quick.
I was looking into your case, and I went and started kicking over some rocks to find out, you know, what justification they could have to make the ruling that they did on you, which is obviously so against the First Amendment.
It's just staggering to people.
But I come up with something.
Are you familiar with the Bill White case?
The only thing I remember about Bill White, Bill White was from Virginia, I believe, and had a questionable reputation, I guess, as we all do.
Yeah, we could say he could be on the extreme of some of our views.
However, it's inconsequential for what was ruled in connection to the ruling on your case.
Bill White, among several other things that were all thrown out, criticized a juror in a publication he had that he sent out to all his subscribers on the Matt Hale case.
And he didn't put a direct threat, but he just said a bunch of negative stuff about the person.
Well, when he got arrested, they threw out all the other cases they had on, except for this one.
And on this one, the judge wrote in his decision why this guy is still sitting in federal prison right now because of what I'm about to read you.
Okay.
Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, Richard A. Posner, judge, wrote, the government was correct in arresting the government was correct in arresting Bill White.
Bill White's point of views are so inherently criminal that to merely criticize somebody in front of an audience such as his is in fact a solicitation of a violent felony.
The United States appealed it to the United States Supreme Court in 2014, and the United States Supreme Court refused to hear it, so they upheld it.
And that is basically saying that your audience are probably, you know, it's the same justification.
Well, you've probably got Klan members listening.
So, yeah, we can just say you're the leader of a Klan then.
It's pretty much what they did to you.
And this is the justification, the case law that's in place that the Supreme Court has approved that they're going after others with.
And I read in the second part of your decisions, another interpretation could be that Edwards was an opinion leader, one with position and influence over those who have sympathy for the Klan or her actual Klan members.
Well, see, that's so, look, James is taking a powder here just briefly, and let me answer that.
Basically, any effective right to get vindication in the courts because of defamation was taken away with the Sullivan case back during the civil rights movement.
And since then, they've just been steadily eroding it.
So now it's basically what they did about James was basically lie about him.
They said that he was the leader of an organization that is a membership organization in which he's not only not a leader, he was never a member and doesn't know any current members, as far as I know.
You know, David Duke was a member back, what, 30, 40 years ago, and that's all there is.
So consequently, if you can say that you're a leader with that type of tenuous relationship, basically they're saying that there is no standard whatsoever.
You can say anyone that you dislike is a member of the Klan or a member of the Nazi party.
And if they are even vaguely conservative or right-wing, then that's going to pass.
And Jay, I appreciate you calling that.
Yes, very quickly, I never want to rush you off.
I want to read the gospel of Christmas from Luke.
I do it every year before the last show before Christmas.
But what you're bringing to our attention is very important.
It's very much on point.
And I'd like to have you on again to talk a little more about it.
But if you could give us a quick summation.
Well, you know, let's just end it there.
It's Christmas.
If you guys would like to, let me know and send me a message to James, and I'll call in next week or something.
I'll go into more detail.
Merry Christmas.
Good show.
Hey, Merry Christmas to you, Jay, and for all the work you do with the great Jim Lancey.
And we'll have people look into this for sure.
I appreciate you bringing it to our attention.
And that is something that I don't think we had considered yet.
And I don't think Kyle Bristow had considered yet.
So thank you.
Thank you, Jay, very much.
And Merry Christmas to you, my friend.
And as I said, Christmas is the one day of the year that we at least try to lay down our swords and allow ourselves to reflect on the beauty and the majesty of this special and spiritual season.
It's hard to put down your sword when you're under attack, right?
Incessantly, that's right.
I mean, in court and the court of public opinion and the media are very grave.
The city government are under attack.
And the battle will begin anew in the coming year.
But tonight, this night, right before Christmas Eve, I encourage you to turn your side upon the heavenly and the eternal.
And remember that we're here to protect and preserve a culture and a faith that has given light to a dark world.
And it's our duty to ensure that that flame is never extinguished.
We only have a couple of biblical accounting of the Christmas story as found in the book of Luke, chapter 2.
And as it came to pass in those days that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.
And the taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.
And all went to be taxed, everyone into his own city.
And Joseph also went up from Galilee out into the city of Nazareth, into Judea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, to be taxed with Mary, his espoused wife, being great with child.
And so it was that they, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the end.
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them, and they were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them, Fear not, for behold, I bring unto you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you.
You shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of heavenly hosts praising God and saying, Glory to God in the highest and on earth, peace, goodwill toward men.
And it came to pass as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem and see this thing which has come to pass, which the Lord hath made known to us.
And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph and the babe lying in a manger.
And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
And all that they had heard wondered at those things which were told to them by the shepherds.
But Mary kept these things and pondered them in her heart.
And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had seen and heard as it was told unto them.
Ladies and gentlemen, we wish you a Merry Christmas from the entire staff and crew of the Political Cesspool Radio Program.
We look forward to and hope to be able to remain at your service in 2018 and beyond.
Remember that Jesus is the reason for the season.
This is a Christian program.
It is a southern program.
It is a pro-white program, to be sure, politically.
But we are all those things and much more.
And Keith, it's an honor to serve with you at Christmas and always.
Well, it's an honor to be on this show.
And this is James's show primarily.
The rest of us are basically stakeholders or chairwarmers.
And I want you to know that the political cesspool is unashamedly advocating for white people.
And there are very few of us doing that, folks, and we need your support.
Merry Christmas, everybody.
We love you.
God bless you.
Enjoy that day with your family.
Thank you, Keith.
Thank you, everyone.
We'll see you next year for the year in the review show, last show of 2017, one week from the night.
