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.
When I say a parade of all-star all-star guests, I mean it, folks.
We have had just an incredible run since the first show of 2018.
Every week has just been one barn burner after another.
You go back and look at our schedule going back to January 6th, and there's not one show that wouldn't be one of our best of shows of the year.
And that continues tonight, of course, with the incredible Mark Weber, another old friend of mine, a man who has done incredible work, produced incredible results for our people for longer than I've been alive.
And he is the director of the Institute for Historical Review, of course.
He is an historian, a lecturer, a current affairs analyst, and author, educated both in the United States and Europe.
Mark holds a master's degree in modern European history.
He's back on the show tonight to tackle contemporary issues as well as matters of historical significance.
Mark, welcome back to the program.
Thank you very much, James.
It's great to be back on with you.
Thank you for your very, very generous introduction.
It wasn't generous enough.
And I mean that.
IHR, IHR.org, IHR.org, Institute for Historical Review, IHR.org.
Check him out, bookmark it, make it a daily read, support his work.
Mark, we got a lot to talk about tonight, and let's start with Russia.
Pat Buchanan wrote a pretty incredible piece that we both took notice of, and that's what we're going to start the program out tonight talking about, at least our interview with you talking about.
13 Russians have been indicted by the man for conspiring to, I guess, inflict damage upon our so-called democracy.
What's going on in that situation?
Well, one of the most important things that I think is Pat Buchanan points out, and I think it's good advice, is everybody ought to take a deep breath here because the media pylon on this Russian intervention has just been really over the top and extreme.
And Pat Buchanan, as he points out, Congressman Gerald Nadler called the Russian intervention in the U.S. elections an equivalent of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
Well, that's just an enormous exaggeration of what the real impact of this has been.
And it's important to put it in a larger context here.
There's a few points that I think that really need to be emphasized as a takeaway of all this.
First of all, the focus on Russian intervention in the thing is one that's very popular right now because Russia in our media and especially Democratic politicians is being portrayed as a very, very bad guy.
So the intervention by Russia is a win-win, especially for the Democrats, because Hillary Clinton was attacking Russia.
Russia right now is opposing the United States in the Syria conflict.
Russia defied the United States to take back Crimea.
Hillary Clinton compared Vladimir Putin to Hitler.
So any involvement by Russia is going to be really highlighted in this exaggerated way because Russia is a a bad guy.
And of course, anything the Democrats can do to emphasize that's all to their benefit.
But the bigger side of all of this, and this is a point that Pat Buchanan and many other commentators have been making, is that if intervention in foreign elections is such a terrible thing, well, the United States might set a good example by stop doing it itself because no country has intervened in more foreign countries in their elections and even just to overthrow their government as the United States of America has.
Not long ago, the director of the CIA was asked, well, does the United States still intervene in foreign elections?
And he sort of chuckled and smiled and said, well, only when necessary.
Well, the United States has a long record of intervening in foreign elections, but those two things need to be really stressed to put this, I think, in an important context, as Pat Buchanan and as many others have been doing.
Yeah, so basically what the situation was, it appears, is that there was so much fake news that Russia had negatively impacted the election as far as Hillary Clinton's perspective was concerned, that had it not been for the Russian interference or meddling, that Donald Trump would have never been elected.
So they had to produce something.
And what they came up with was these 13 Russians who I think I read in some, I don't know if this is verified or not, I read in some report that the grand total of the money that all of these 13 had put into their support for Trump was about $46,000.
But the gist of it was basically, I mean, we're talking about social media accounts, social media accounts pushing Trump, which may or may not have impacted a single vote.
And Donald Trump himself said they're laughing their blankety blanks off in Moscow as they look at this indictment.
This is the best that they could come up with in terms of official Russian interference with the election was that you had 13 Russians promoting Trump on Twitter or some variation thereof.
I mean, that's embarrassing.
The indictment itself was embarrassing.
Well, I'm going to make a point that I haven't seen anybody else make in all of this, and it's a kind of tongue-in-cheek point.
When I saw this indictment, I wanted to know, and I'm sure a lot of people ask themselves the same question, is the intervention or the efforts by these people who've been indicted or named in this indictment, is it wrong because of what they did or because they're not U.S. citizens?
In other words, millions of Americans are tweeting and putting things on social media or organizing rallies or trying to urge people to vote for one person or another or holding demonstrations against or for this or that cause.
But apparently the sin of the people involved is not that they did that, but that they're not U.S. citizens.
Well, my tongue-in-cheek suggestion is if that's the only problem, why not give them U.S. citizenship?
Because that's the way the United States has been dealing with people who break the law in other ways.
That's great.
In other words, if somebody's driving around a car, doesn't have insurance or registration, but he's a citizen of Mexico, well, the answer for many people is, well, we'll just give them citizenship and that'll end that problem.
And if they, to be consistent, what they ought to do is say, well, if they're going to be organizing rallies and holding demonstrations, why don't we just give them U.S. citizenship and then it'll all be okay.
Mark, that's incredible.
That is something that I'm so glad you brought up tonight.
And I guess the biggest takeaway from this story is that, of course, the efforts of these 13 people combined probably didn't move the needle on the effects of the election.
But of course, what our own government does in terms of supplying aid and financial resources and arms and even going to war for other nations in order to overthrow the elected government is there's countless, literally countless examples of that.
I mean, of course, as a southerner, I still consider myself living under an occupied government, but we won't get into that.
It's true that notwithstanding, this is nothing compared to what we do on a very regular basis.
I want to make an additional point that I don't think many people have said.
If the problem is that people who are not U.S. citizens are urging people to vote, then that means indictments should be brought against any person from Mexico or Guatemala who's in the United States and not a U.S. citizen who's urging anybody to vote for somebody.
Hold on right there, Mark.

We'll be back with Mark right after this.
I'm going to bring my co-host on.
Stay tuned.
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 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.

And now back to tonight's show.
Mark, I don't know if you know this or not.
Mark Weber, by the way, everybody, our guest this hour, IHR.org, the Institute for Historical Review.
Great man.
And I don't know if you know this or not, Mark, but the owner of the network that syndicates this show is sitting in tonight to produce our program, Sam Bushman, and you fired him up as fire.
Have you ever heard Sam that fired up at all?
I've never seen Sam that fired.
All right, so here's what he was fired up about, basically.
I can't remember everything he said because it was a three-minute, however long the commercial break is, three minutes.
It was a three-minute, not a rant in a bad way, but it was a righteous rant.
But basically what he said is, is Twitter not a worldwide platform for free speech?
Of course, we have the Jared Taylor lawsuit.
I guess that'll be determined.
But are only Americans supposed to have this freedom of speech?
You know, America has gone in and toppled other duly elected governments counting to give people the so-called right to free speech.
So why can't Russians have that same free speech on these own worldwide platforms?
So that's, I guess, almost a rhetorical question.
Before you answer that, Mark, or comment on that, I want to quickly pause to tell you that my co-host, Eddie, the Bombardier Miller, is in the studio, and he wants to say hello as we continue the interview.
Go, Eddie.
Well, hello there, Mark.
My name is Eddie.
They call me the Bombardier Miller here.
And I've been following you.
I'm a lot older than James.
I've been following your work since you came on the scene back way long time ago.
When I was following Dr. Duke's work at the NAAWP, I'd like to say Dr. Duke's a good friend of ours here at the Cess Pool.
And I consider you a good friend that I've just never met yet.
But I really admire your work.
I remember when I first saw some of your writings, I thought, my God, my God, somebody finally with enough brains and enough wherewithal has come upon the scene to actually tell the friggin truth about what your work's doing, about the Holocaust, et cetera, et cetera.
But I really admire your work a great deal.
I take my hat off to you.
You have the courage of a lion, my friend.
You could not have possibly done that have you not had the, like my good friend, well, I can't call his name right now, but he says you're like a pit bulldog on a bloody bone, son.
I congratulate you, Paul.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I don't consider myself particularly brave.
I just feel very much that a long time ago.
You are.
Well, a long time ago, I just said, well, people, I would say, like many of us often say to friends, we'll say, somebody ought to do something.
Somebody ought to do this.
Somebody ought to do that.
And a long time ago, I thought, well, there's no more reason, there's no reason why I shouldn't be doing it more than anyone else.
I mean, it's not enough just to hope and expect someone else to do things.
If we have abilities, we should try to use them for what is right and do what is right.
You know, one person, James, that you and I both admire very much is Robert E. Lee, despite the vilification he's being subjected to now in our society.
But he, all his life, he emphasized and stressed the importance of trying to do what's right.
What's right?
What is the thing we should do?
Not what's most convenient, not what's most comfortable, but what's the right thing to do?
And always in his life, he asked himself that question.
If he had been a man seeking glory or ease, he would have accepted the offer to take the command of the federal forces in the beginning of the Civil War.
But he didn't do that.
Robert E. Lee was, and I just try to stress this as a person to look up to and to look at as an exemplar.
But I try to keep in mind, well, what is it we should do?
And I try to ask myself that question.
And then it might seem courageous, but if we just try to go ahead and do that, then everything else I think falls into place.
You're right about Robert Lee Lee, Mark.
You know, he once said, and I'll paraphrase it, that duty.
Duty is the most sublime word in the English language.
He most certainly said that.
He answered the Call of Duty, damn the cost.
Well, that's absolutely right.
Now, getting back, Mark, to – yeah, go ahead.
No, finish.
Well, no, go ahead.
That's fine.
No, I mean, enough about that, but I just was trying to answer what you said about me.
It's really a question.
I think everyone listening to the show and everybody who's thinking about what's going on in our country.
These are terrible times we live in.
And I think everyone should ask himself the question, what can I do?
What should I do?
Not just what should I do in terms of survival for me and my family, but what's the right thing to do for a better future looking long beyond our own small lifetimes?
You're doing it.
You're doing it right this minute, my friend.
You're doing the only thing that people of our ability can do and our economic status.
You are spreading the truth, my friend, like I said, with the courage of a lion.
I don't care if you say you've got courage, you do have courage.
God bless you.
That's all we're doing here at the political suspool.
Lord knows we catch more hell than you could possibly imagine.
We could talk about the hell we catch here for a month.
One of our co-hosts is not here.
He's superior to me because of difficulties we've had.
I won't mention his name because I don't want to bring any hell on him.
But I have a couple of questions.
You know, one thing that nobody ever mentioned is the election interfering.
My God, what about the almighty Israel?
I mean, even the Israelis, and they can brag.
They brag.
You can go to their publications, and I'm running this by you.
They say, yeah, they control, they run America.
You know, the tail wags the dog.
That's one statement to make.
Another statement, do you think one reason the United States government is so hellfire-bent on attacking Russia is because Putin ran out the oligarchs who control 90% of the wealth of the Russian country?
How about that?
How about that?
Why is Israel ever mentioned when they're attacking people who interfere with our elections when Israel controls our elections?
It's almost as much as the federal government is coming out.
So what about that?
Well, I was going to get into this, and this really raises this larger question.
When people talk about foreign interference, what do they mean by foreign?
In other words, if a person just simply is a U.S. citizen, that doesn't mean that his or her loyalties are really to the best interest of the United States and the American people or even to humanity.
The biggest campaign contributors by far to both the Republican and Democratic presidential candidates in the last election were men, Haim Saban in the case of Clinton and Sheldon Adelson in the case of Trump, whose loyalties are clearly not to America.
Their loyalties are to Israel.
Sheldon Adelson owns one of the biggest circulation newspapers in Israel.
He supports candidates based upon their support for Israel.
Haim Saban, the biggest donor to the Hillary Clinton campaign, he said openly, I'm a one-issue guy and my issue is Israel.
Now, these people play a huge, oversized role in American political life.
But that's not criticized because Israel and its supporters are so powerful that politicians are afraid even to bring them up.
It's much easier to bash on Russia, of course, than to talk about foreign interference or certainly alien interference in our electoral process by Israel, which happens on a routine basis, which happens consistently year after year after year.
But that's exactly a very, very important point that needs to be made, I think.
You are so right there, Mark.
You know, and you know what?
Even here at the Cesspoo, we danced and rallied, we sung, we sent off rockets in the air when Donald Trump won the election.
But even Donald Trump himself, like every other president in my time, has gone over to Israel and put on their little Jew boy hat and kissed the wailing wall.
Do you know, Mark, I'm asking you a question.
In your lifetime, you're probably not as old as I am.
Have you ever seen a president that did not go, you know, wagging tail, you know, with his tail tucked between his legs to kiss the wailing wall with a little jew boy hat on?
I mean, are we ever going to have a Yamaka?
It's been politicians of both parties have to just bow and scrape to this power, what I call Jewish Zionist power.
You can call it the Israel lobby, the Jewish lobby, whatever you want to call it.
This power is so formidable that even to dispute it or even to talk about it openly can bring political suicide to anyone who even mentions it.
That's why when Netanyahu speaks to the U.S. Congress, he gets applauded more furiously than any American president.
He gets a bigger applause from American politicians in the U.S. Congress than he gets from his own parliament in Israel.
This is just absolutely crazy.
The world knows this.
And one good thing is that with the passage of time, this reality is more and more obvious to more and more people, not only in the United States, but around the world.
Thanks to people like you, Mark.
Because the big danger is that we'll get in another calamitous war like we did in Iraq with the terrible consequences that that has for America and the world.
Hold on right there, Mark Weber.
We have a caller from Pittsburgh waiting on the line to talk to you.
We're going to get to him at the top of the next segment, which will be our last with you.
Also going to talk about a new article for IHR.org that you wrote that caught my attention.
And so we're going to shift gears and talk about that as well coming up.
Protecting your liberties.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
Dear Christine, I wanted to write and tell you some exciting news.
What, what are you doing?
Oh, hi.
I'm writing Christine a letter to tell her about Emily's first tooth.
At 2 o'clock in the morning?
It's a mom thing.
I'll get her.
I don't have the words to thank you for having the courage to give us our most precious gift.
We can only thank you by raising her the way you'd always hoped.
How'd you get her to sleep so fast?
It's a dad thing.
Honey, will you tell her thanks from me?
Of course I will.
Adoption.
It's about love.
A message from LDS Family Services.
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 Kirk 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.
That's Kurt, C-U-R-T, at LibertyRoundtable.com for your free vigor test today.
Kurt, LibertyRoundtable.com or 801-669-2211.
Vigor test, free, scientifically proven today.
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 the South.
It's time to jump back into the political cesspool.
To be part of the show and have your voice heard around the world, call us at 1-866-986-6397.
All right, folks, I just want to make a quick announcement.
On his radio program on Monday, Monday morning, LibertyRoundtable.com, Sam Bushman, owner of this network, will be letting loose hell off this topic.
I have never seen Sam so fired up.
I've known him half my life.
Smoked him out of this mic.
And anyway, Mark Weber has lit a fuse, and he is going to be tackling this issue as we're doing it now, but perhaps with a little more flair.
Anyway, what we're talking about here very quickly, we're going to take a call from Pittsburgh, and then we're going to shift gears and talk about one other unrelated topic.
But I asked this as a rhetorical question.
If these 13 Russians who have been indicted by the federal government had been supporting Hillary, would they have been indicted?
And of course, the answer is no.
And then you indict these 13 people for having Twitter accounts, but yet you have other foreign nationals, and Mark Weber named them in the last segment.
Sheldon Adelson won, dumping in billions of dollars to influence the election to benefit a foreign country, a foreign nation.
And that's not worthy of an indictment?
I mean, so obviously there's a big disconnect.
Let's go to Frank of Pittsburgh with a very quick question from Mark Weber, and then we've got to shift gears and go to another topic.
Go, Frank.
Oh, yes.
Mark, in your own opinion, do you think that the general public is getting bread-pilled on this?
I'm reading interesting articles, especially some of the own Jewish publications.
As James pointed out, there's a certain arrogance and smugness.
They seem to be taking their masks off and really revealing their motives.
Do you feel that there is a groundswell of awareness that's going on now that maybe wasn't there 20 years ago or really before the internet became as commonly used as now?
Thank you for the call, Frank.
I think the answer is in two parts.
First of all, there is growing awareness, but what really, the bigger thing that's happening is a huge growth in distrust and skepticism by the public about the entire system.
This last election, 2016, is the first one in American history in which a majority of the voters said they didn't trust either of the candidates.
That's never happened in American history before.
The polls show unprecedented levels of distrust of the media, of the Congress, of the political institutions.
And this makes Americans far more open to hear alternative views about what's going on and to ask themselves, what went wrong?
What's going on?
Because whether you're a liberal or conservative, Republican or a Democrat, things are not good in America.
Everyone across the board senses that things are not good.
Now, I mean, in a fundamental way, not about the economy.
Something much more is going on.
There's a breakdown in American society and trust and civility.
And this is across the board, and everybody says that.
And that makes people far more open.
And of course, people ask, well, the people responsible for anything going on in society are those who have power.
And when we ask that question, well, who has power in our society?
That becomes a very easier question to answer than it was just a few years ago because our politicians over and over are subordinate and obsequious about a power even greater than their own, as I was trying to point to just a few minutes ago.
Even Woodrow Wilson talked about that.
And Mark, I would say this as we transition from that subject to the final one that we have time for tonight, and we have about five minutes remaining with you.
And let me just say again, ladies and gentlemen, what an honor it is to be able to host a radio program on the mainstream airwaves that can host people that should be getting interviews.
Now, Mark has done a whole lot of media in his lifetime, a whole lot of the biggest shows in the world, the establishment.
And he should be.
This is the man you're hearing from tonight is the man.
Men like him are the ones that should be featured on the nightly news every week and every day.
And thank God that we have our little sliver here on AM radio to host people like Mark Weber, true heroes of our people.
But when I was linking to the promo, Mark, promoting your appearance tonight, and that is Paul Kersey as well, our guest for the first hour.
I linked to both of your respective websites.
And when I linked to IHR earlier this week for the piece on our website talking about the show tonight, it just so happened that at that time, the top story on your website was one that really caught my attention.
It was written by you, so I read it.
And the title of it was one that it's not related at all to the first subject we covered tonight, but I really wanted to have you talk about it tonight because it really touched a string, being the descendant of a Confederate veteran and how much our soldiers are maligned and how honorable they were as soldiers.
This one really touched the heartstrings.
The title of the article was German Soldiers of World War II, Why They Were the Best and Why They Still Lost.
Tell us what you wrote in that article, Mark.
Yes, that's an expansion of a talk I gave at a meeting, an IHR meeting in December.
I wanted to emphasize that American television and movies and so forth have over the years portrayed German soldiers as stupid, as unimaginative, as robot-like, brutish, not very skilled.
And this is a total distortion of the reality.
The truth is, and the article goes into a great detail citing the conclusions of many military historians that German soldiers were outstanding.
They were unmatched in the Second World War in terms of resourcefulness, of adaptability, of courage, and so forth.
And that's not my opinion.
This is the opinion of virtually every military historian who writes about this.
But you have to dig around to find it because this is not the presentation you'll get, especially in the shows that I, as a kid, saw in America growing up.
One of the most popular shows was in the 60s, there was a show called Combat, in which week after week, a small squad of Americans would just wipe out much larger units of Germans who always acted very stupid.
And then there was this very popular show, Hogan's Heroes, in which the Germans were all as stupid as get out.
I mean, they were just, they were so dumb, the run rings around them.
But this is crazy.
I mean, it's not, of course, Hogan's Heroes was a comedy.
But the point is, I'm trying to show just at least one should give credit.
Whatever you think of the regime, the courage, the ability, and the skill of the German soldiers in the Second World War was without question unmatched.
The commander of the British 15th Army in Italy, he said they're the finest soldiers in the world, he said.
And he said that in a confidential dispatch to London.
I mean, there's so many examples of this.
And time and again, the German soldiers outfought much larger units of Russian, American, or British soldiers, but were finally overwhelmed by just huge superior numbers of enemy soldiers and of equipment.
And that's what finally brought it down.
But because a country loses a war doesn't mean their soldiers are less courageous or less skilled.
Well, and as Eddie at the Bombardier Miller is pointing out, and Eddie did two tours in Vietnam, so he knows a little bit about war, even though.
Who were you fighting for in that war, Eddie?
I was fighting for the international bankers, James, and I'm so proud of that.
But anyway, Eddie, being the warrior he is, mentioned that it took six years to beat the six years.
But what I would say is five years for the Southerners to be beaten by the same godless force that beat the Germans.
All right.
But the fact is, so the article is German soldiers of World War II, why they were the best and why they still lost.
Folks, it's worthy of a read.
Other than the evenings in which Mark Weber has graced our audience, out of the 14 years we've been on the air, I will tell you that there is one guest that we've had on that really stands out in my memory.
And we actually had the opportunity to interview a Luftwaffe pilot who, I tell you, you listen to these people.
You talk to these veterans.
If you have the opportunity, there's not many of them left.
But you've had the opportunity, and I'm sure you have, Mark, to talk to these veterans.
I don't care if it's on the American side or the German side, but on the German side we're talking about right now, they are humble.
They're God-fearing.
This guy that we had him on for two or three shows, one of the it would appear, one of the greatest men I've ever, you know, he did time in the Russian gulags.
He was captured.
He survived on almost nothing, and he made it out of there.
It was just an incredible story.
And no, I mean, these were good men.
I mean, these were good men.
Mark, final word to you.
Another bowl of capusta.
I was just going to say that a big influence in my life was when I was 18.
I lived in Europe for a year.
I went back to Europe.
I lived a year and a half.
And I got to know people who had been in the Second World War, not only on the German side, but other armies.
This enormously influenced how I looked at modern history and was very, very important in realizing that the presentation of the World War II and 20th century history presented by Hollywood American television is immensely skewed.
I won't go more into that, but it certainly changed my perspective.
And the experience you've had talking to German Luftwaffe pilots or any, it changes one's perspective tremendously.
They're human.
I mean, it humanizes them to talk to me.
You read the propaganda, it dehumanizes them.
You actually talk to one.
The truth is nothing like what's been presented to you by a very much controlled and owned and operated press.
Mark Weber, everybody.
Mark, we love you.
IHR.org.
We'll talk to you again soon.
Thank you, Mark, for being with us tonight.
right after these messages here on the Liberty News Radio Network.

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 fruitful to start eating in favor of your own interests?
The CoCertified app will be your start.
Download it now at co-certified.com.

Straight on the show.
Call us on James's Dime at 1-866-986-6397.
Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you're enjoying the show tonight.
A very wise man in show business said, How do you stay in the business after so many years?
Well, you played the songs the audience wants to hear.
I think that's what we're doing tonight.
You play the songs they want to hear.
And I think we've done that tonight with Paul Kersey and Mark Weber.
We're hitting two of our signature topics, our bread and butter.
But now we're going to go to Scoop Stanton, who has been at CPAC this week, actually tweeted on Twitter earlier this week that for the last several years, CPAC has given press credentials to Scoop.
I wish they would stop because it sullies our reputation to be associated with them.
And finally, they did.
So for the first time in several years, Scoop wasn't given press credentials this year.
It's a blessing in the sky, Scoop, believe me.
But that didn't stop you from going to CPAC.
And you've been there and you've been getting the lay of the land.
And you've got a I've read a preview of his report tonight, folks.
I think you're going to enjoy it.
But a lot of the alt-right had a presence at CPAC this week.
Not only was Scoop there passing out flyers for the political cesspool, Identity Europa was there passing out business cards and leaving business cards all over the place.
Identity Europa was on the scene.
Scoop actually ran into Peter Brimilo, literally ran into Peter, who, of course, is a good friend of ours.
Richard Spencer was even there in a hotel room, not as an officially ticketed member of the conference, but he was there in a hotel room and bringing people up from the bar to talk to him.
And he has some stuff about that on his Twitter.
So between Richard, Identity Europa, the political cesspool, V-Dair, our presence was felt at CuckPack this week.
Scoop, give us the report.
Give us the report, Scoop.
Okay, well, as you know, for the past three years, I've been granted access to CPAC as a credentialed member of the media, as I was a correspondent on the Political Cessible heard on FCC Regular Airways.
I've been polite, a kindle, not drawing attention, and met some really nice people, including Sheriff David Clark, David Webb, Robert Darvey, and Mike Gallagher.
And mostly actually was on Radio Row.
I rarely went into the auditorium.
This year, I thought I was a shoe-in as I was host of my own radio show on the AM dial.
Wrong.
I was denied access.
No reason was given.
I tried to apply under the Political Cessible, as I did three years earlier, and no luck.
I went to CPAC, to clean my case, and even brought my recording gear just in case they can get on Media Row or just somewhere to broadcast Red 42.
Well, I waited an hour, then I stumbled through a taping of Red 42 that was handled very well by Jim Lancey and Jay.
Of course, as soon as I can went on, there's a baby crying in the background.
Lancy was like, what the hell was that?
I said, is Scoop crying here on CPAC?
So, anyways, after I stumbled through Red 42, I was denied again.
No reason given.
Meanwhile, a whole bunch of dirtbag media that had nothing to do with politics were granted access, including Comedy Central.
Comedy Central was looking for gotcha moments where some attendee says something politically incorrect, making the whole CPAC convention look like a Klan rally.
Other media came in with literally a phone and a selfie.
Also, besides myself, Pamela Geller and the mastermind behind the website Kaylee Pundit were uninvited.
Who's next?
Versus Richard Spencer, then me, then Ms. Geller.
But who's next?
Maybe it'll be Peter Bremlo.
We made it worse.
This is going on while I was, again, recording Red 42.
Now, despite my lack of credentials, I was still undeterred.
I was going to get a story even if I met me being escorted off the property.
The funny thing about TPAC is that Radio Row is wide open.
One needs a ticket or credentials for the speakers in the auditorium that you see on C-SPAN, but not for Radio Row unless the president or vice president speaks for obvious reasons.
I saw the usual cast of characters, the upper middle class college kids, upper middle class itself, wheelers and dealers who are here in the swamp.
And then there's a dude carrying a sign in English, the Hebrew saying Juice for Trump, and another man wearing a next eye of the Israeli flag, tons of yamricas.
In fact, CPAC should be calling itself conservative APAC.
And lots of other people with lots of money.
And then there's the sheriff that wants to legalize drugs.
And then the people dressed up as a founding father.
And I thought the guys that did dress up in costume, they should take a double as a doorman here at this hotel.
One notable personality that was president was Ms. Joy Villa.
Villa is a pop singer who made a name for herself by wearing a dress that looked like a Trump campaign sign at an award show.
Her lackluck, her music shot through the roof in terms of sale.
This year at the Grammy Award, she wore a dress with an illustration of a fetus in the moon.
Villa was talking about Congress, but she was not sure what state to run in.
The last woman in a situation like this almost became the 45th president.
Villa claims to be a Christian, yet has been out and out as a Scientologist.
Bill claims that she's a Scientologist and a Christian.
Anyway, she was working the room to promote Joy Villa.
Now, since I wasn't going to spend my hire money at TPAC, I still wanted to get some story.
There's some sort of meat for $25.
I said, why not?
That's reasonable.
But guess what?
You had a technical person to go in the first place.
Then a preacher named Mark Burns was running for Congress from South Carolina and has a meeting treat as Sweet Gear Gaylord with Dr. Sebastian Forkhau.
Well, guess what?
Unless you had a key to the hotel, you ain't getting it.
But not all was lost.
I actually did meet some nice people at TPAC.
Of course, there were politicians with DC swap features.
I met Chris Cox, the founder of Bikers from Trump, and the great Peter Brimlow, founder of BeDair.com.
I was shocked that he was there and you gave him a print pass.
We spoke about immigration in Trump's great speech, which I saw from the comfort of my own living room.
But the best part was meeting Gary Byrne.
Byrne is the former Secret Service Uniform Division Officer and author of the book, Conflict of Character, and former political successful guest.
After some small talk, he wanted to give me an autographed copy of his book.
I declined, but he was assistant.
And all poor Derek had was my business card with the political accessible information on one side and red42.org scribbled on the other.
Now, while I was shut out, I decided to leave my mark.
I had some flyers printed up for police weeks featuring the vehicle successful last year, and I left a bunch of them in the area before they were trash.
But this year, security was much tighter.
There's a sign, traffic sign, that guests and ticket holders for the private event only.
There's also signs saying that costumes, flags, signs, and other distractions are prohibited in the auditorium, as well as people can be ejected for any reason at any time.
I think they're prepared for something, like the Bombardier coming in.
But if you think CPAC is a grassroots organization, you are dead wrong.
CPAC is part of the Washington, D.C. ecosystem.
Man, it costs a fortune to put it on here at the Gaylord, but CPAC does have sponsors to tell.
Liberty Healthcare Health Share did a 30-minute commercial before President Trump spoke.
But charging college kids $85, retirees and veterans $150, generally $300.
That's much.
But we're not done.
CPAC has a gold, silver, and platinum packages that run $1,600, $5,000 in for the platinum.
That's our call for price.
Needless to say, there are not many cops, firemen, farmers, truck drivers, nurses, contractors, and grocery store managers.
One thing I did, see, when the cameras went off, the money comes out.
People go in these VIP dinners looking like they have a million bucks.
Meanwhile, your show is eating PPJ in the car.
James, back to you.
Scoop, I'm going to have to call Peter Brimelow and ask him why he accepted those press credentials.
I had to ask CPAC to deny you this year just because it embarrasses me so much that they keep giving them to you.
But let's ask Matt the Copperhead to weigh in on this.
Matt, what do you think?
Should we be at CPAC or not?
I say, Pat, you know, anyone that shows up to a place called the Gay Lord, you know, that says it all, right?
Except for Scoop, who's all man, obviously.
Oh, without a doubt.
Yeah.
But anyhow, on this Black Panther thing, I'm not getting bent out of shape on the movie.
You know, they want to have their, what is it called?
Wachavia, Wakolio, their EFCO state.
We can have ours, right?
No.
Yeah, I don't think it works that way.
No, no, no, no.
That's where it's wrong.
They can have theirs, but we can't have ours.
And if we want what they have, we're evil and they're not.
Well, just ours is hidden from them.
You just got to tell them, listen, it's on every public library in the James Joyce and the Ulysses.
You pull the book and it flips out the, you know, the secret pathway, okay?
That's how we hide our FCO state.
You know, come on.
You know, no surrender.
We'll get ours eventually.
Keep the faith, guys.
Hey, we got one in the studio tonight.
That's right.
Hey.
What's going on?
What else is happening?
Well, hey, Scoop's the star of the show right now.
He's telling us about his adventures at CPAC.
Hey, Trump did speak there.
I was going to say, and he gave a good talk.
I wish his talk was actually almost campaign Trump rhetoric.
Unfortunately, he just doesn't act on any evidence, President, but it was a good talk.
Right, Scoop?
Right.
Yep, and I saw that from the cover of my own living room.
Hey, was Shelly Sheldon Shekel Aderson over there?
Probably, because I mean, I mean, this was the Conservative PAC convention.
Right.
Well, one thing the Normans got to learn: there are no free lunches, and they've been eating deli every day.
And that's where this whole thing comes in that he's going to shekel up to put the embassy now in Jerusalem.
Okay.
Well, I'll say this very quickly.
So we mentioned earlier, Scoop was there representing TPC, this time for the first time in many years without credentials, thank God.
And Peter Brimberlow was there.
And let's see who else was there.
I mean, Richard was there.
Richard was in the hotel room, and he was bringing up random attendees from the event up to his hotel room to debate him.
I got to tell you, these people that came up, utter embarrassments to themselves, to their ancestors, to their families, to their nation, to their country.
And CPAC exists to lose it.
Even Dinesh D'Souza was too hardcore for them.
Dinesh D'Souza, this Indian guy whose whole shtick, and we met him at the Republican convention.
Sam interviewed him.
His whole shtick is, yeah, yeah, you were there, Matt.
Of course, of course.
His whole shtick was Democrats are the real racist.
He's too strong for them.
They disinvited him just because he said he was glad that Florida didn't vote for gun control.
