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.
All right, everybody, very excited to have back with us former television news reporter Sean Bergen.
Anytime big news happens, we have Sean on.
Anytime Sean is on the show, it is guaranteed to be a great show and a professional show.
And we're thankful to have him on with us this evening.
We got him on for two segments, and he is going to be talking to us about two different topics.
The first topic will be the march in Washington that took place, I believe, today and in other cities across the country.
And the second segment of this hour, he's going to be talking to us about the situation in Sacramento.
And together, we'll see if we can work through that.
And then in the next hour, now, yes, our show only has three hours, but he's going to be anchoring Red 42 for Scoop live immediately following tonight's broadcast of DPC.
So lots of Sean Bergen coming up.
Sean, thanks for being with us, especially on short notice, as it were.
Oh, it's great to be with you, James.
Thanks for having me on.
Entirely our pleasure, brother.
So let's talk about what's going on in Washington today.
They're calling it the March for Our Lives.
I guess that sounds better than what it really is, which is the march to confiscate guns from law-abiding citizens.
What do you know about it?
Yeah, it's the march to confiscate weapons.
It's the anti-Trump march.
It's a liberal voter registration drive.
It's the women's march.
It's just show up, right?
I mean, it's a catch-all.
So what you have, this is an outgrowth really of the Parkland shooting.
Tragically, we saw 17 kids gunned down there just not long ago.
And then a few of these kids emerged as media stars.
David Hogg and the Sinead O'Connor lookalike wannabe 2.0.
And they were turned into media stars.
And we are to believe now that these kids have started a grassroots revolution and that leading to a march in Washington of half a million people and a national movement.
And we're supposed to believe that these kids did this all by themselves.
And the fact of the matter is they're nothing more than political pawns.
This is an astroturfed effort.
The adults are running the scenes.
And when I say adults, I'm talking about adults who behave like children.
Those are the American leftists.
You know, the problem with the gun argument from these folks, first of all, they're marching in a parade where they're surrounded by guys with guns to guarantee their safety.
We have Hollywood stars going up and, you know, making these grand pronouncements about how Trump is horrible and the NRA is the devil and it's a terrorist organization and blah, blah, blah.
You know, I'd really like to see some of these Hollywood folks step up and put their money where their mouth is.
If they're that anti-gun, I say they start a movement right now where actors, directors, producers, and agents and publicists, throw the publicists in there too, all step forward and say we are never ever going to appear in, direct, support, or produce a movie or a TV show that has guns in it.
But see, how about their careers of advocate?
There's not a person in Hollywood who's going to do that.
There's not any one of these political elites who's going to step out from behind their armed guards.
They are not going to come out from behind their gated communities that have armed guards.
They're not going to stop having, you know, I mean, the whole thing is an exercise in hypocrisy.
They just want, they want to rid America of guns completely, and they're just too naive to recognize that that is just an impossibility.
It's never going to happen.
You know, you're going to have spree shooters like this.
If they don't use an AR-15, then they'll use a shotgun or a handgun or a hunting rifle or a crossbow or they'll set off bombs or they'll run people over with a truck down the sidewalk.
They don't understand.
They have no concept of evil.
Evil to them are the Republicans and the conservatives who disagree with them politically.
They're unable to make a distinction between true evil and those they merely disagree with.
The answer, the solution to this problem is very, very simple.
For all those people out there who are scratching their heads going, there are no easy answers.
Well, I think it was maybe just a week or 10 days after Parkland that we saw a school safety officer in Great Mills, Maryland, confront a shooter, and the guy, I think, maybe got off a shot and maybe shot one or two people before that school safety officer gunned that guy down.
That's the solution to the problem.
You want to stop school shootings?
Put a guy with a gun at the front door, a retired cop, a military veteran.
They line up to volunteer.
You don't have to pay him a ton of money.
One entrance in, one entrance out.
You don't have to install a bunch of metal detectors and all that kind of stuff.
You just have to stop the kid who's running a little late and carrying an AR-15.
How about that?
That's the guy you're going to target.
And shoot that guy.
And if you shoot that guy, I guarantee you that he's not going to be able to shoot anybody else.
But we're dealing with people who fully embrace the victim ideology.
It is the theology of victimology.
They're very comfortable in the victim role, and they want to see the rest of us become victims too.
If they just stop and say, all right, listen, I don't believe in guns.
I don't like what they want to call a military style assault weapon.
All that is great, okay?
If you want to sit in a corner while the guy kicks your door in and does whatever he wants to do in your house, to your wife, to your kids, whatever, that's your prerogative.
But you cannot take away from me my right to defend myself, not in the United States of America in the year 2018.
It is not going to happen.
The other thing that really, I don't think a lot of these leftists are really paying much attention.
We had eight straight years of Barack Obama, where we saw the most corrupt president in the history of the Republic weaponize our federal agencies.
I'm talking about the lettered agencies, the CIA, the NSA, the FBI, the ATF, the entire DOJ, the State Department, and the IRS.
All of them were weaponized and used to target American citizens.
And you're telling me that after something like that, that you're going to try and disarm us?
I don't think so.
There's a lot of people who are looking at that and saying to themselves, my God, we really, I mean, no pun intended, but we dodged a bullet there with the possible election of Hillary Clinton.
So there's nobody who is a firm believer in the Second Amendment that's paying these kids any mind.
This is just another empty, symbolic gesture.
By 9 o'clock Monday morning, everybody will forget it's ever happened.
And this is liberalism.
It is just an exercise in futility that is meant to make them feel good about themselves.
And that's it.
They accomplished nothing today.
They changed no minds.
They're not going to be passing any new legislation.
They're not going to be raising the gun age or any of those kinds of things.
So, you know, I look at people like that.
I know people who went down to Washington for that march.
And when they come back, if I have a conversation with them, I'm going to say this.
What did you accomplish?
And leave it right there.
Ladies and gentlemen, Sean Bergen's passion and enthusiasm and intensity is very infectious and contagious.
And so is courage.
Passion is contagious.
Courage is contagious.
And Sean has paid a price for being a truth teller.
And that is why he's found a home here and why we're so thankful to have him.
Sean, you came out with a bazooka tonight.
You know, I want to let you know, ladies and gentlemen, you know, we had a guest that we couldn't reach in the first hour, and so we had to reshuffle some of the segments.
Sean wasn't even scheduled to be on the show tonight.
We reached out to Sean during the show.
As a matter of fact, while the show was already live and in progress, and we said, Sean, could you come on and help us out fill a couple of segments?
This is what you get on a moment's notice.
Incredible commentary by Sean Bergen, and you'll get more of it following our show tonight as he anchors Red 42.
I want to follow up one question for Sean about this topic.
And we got to talk about the Black Lives Matter demonstration in Sacramento.
We only have one segment left with Sean.
I wish we had more time, but we're locked into that.
And we'll do that when we come back.
Give him a big round of applause.
You'll hear more from him in three minutes.
Good sense in a sense group.
As the United States boldly stepped forward in the glorious light provided by its new constitution in 1787, the nations of the earth were in awe of the newfound strength and hope of this free land.
Today, the nation stands at a crossroads.
A divergence from the original intent put forth in the United States Constitution has brought grave threats to our beloved nation.
A miracle is needed if the United States is to survive.
That miracle is again the pure application of the United States Constitution.
I'm Scott Bradley.
In my To Preserve the Nation book and lecture series, I bring forth truths that will help raise up a new generation of statesmen like those noble Americans who founded this land.
Vigorous application of these principles will invigorate and restore the nation, and we may become again the freest, most prosperous, most respected, and happiest nation on earth.
Visit topreservethenation.com to begin that restoration.
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 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.
All right, everybody.
Sean, we got to go quick because we only have you for one more segment.
I wish we had you for the entire hour.
But you mentioned something that Sam Bushman and I were talking about in earlier breaks this evening.
And that is, if you believe that a few kids from this high school could put together a crowd of this size in Washington, D.C., with no prior experience of doing anything of the sort in just a few days, come to me for the latest prices on bridges.
So that was number one, and you already addressed that.
But I would like to ask you very quickly before we move on to the next topic, and time is fleeting.
The people like David Hogg, as repulsive as that is, that's one thing.
I mean, he's going out there and he's a liberal and he's hogging up the limelight.
No pun intended, again, but that's just that.
But for all of these other kids, do you feel as though that the establishment and the lying press is pimping these kids?
I mean, obviously, when you have gone through something so traumatic, and we all hate that the loss of life happened, but if you had passed additional gun control laws, it wouldn't have stopped an evil man from doing evil things.
Like you said, he would have gotten another weapon.
It wouldn't have had any impact whatsoever.
But the fact that all of these kids are being prostituted to deprive law-abiding citizens like us from the right to defend our families is sick.
And I've even seen it in an elementary school.
I believe it was in Virginia, Sean.
It was certainly an elementary school.
I believe it was in Virginia.
Where they had all of the kids come out.
I mean, you're talking about six, seven, eight years old coming out and laying on their backs with anti-gun slogans.
That's sick.
Yeah, well, look, you touched on a number of things there.
You know, these kids, David Hogg and Sinead 2.0 and the rest of that crowd are on the cover of Time magazine.
They are being used as political points.
They're being used as human shields by the left because when you try kids out there, then they think that's going to shield them from criticism.
Well, it may shield the kids from criticism, but not the people that are behind it.
And they think that we're stupid.
We are not stupid.
We are able to see exactly what's playing out here.
These kids are being used as puppets.
They're marionettes out there to put a teenage face on it.
And they are out.
Look, the overriding argument here that these people are trying to put out is that 19, 20-year-old kids are too young to have AR-15s.
Okay, well, maybe that, but you're going to tell me that 19 or 20-year-olds are therefore capable of dictating gun policy?
I don't think so.
And you can't have it both ways.
That's a great point.
Again, points out the glaring hypocrisy of the left.
Well, and I would say this very quickly, Sean.
You're so right.
And just to further illustrate your point, they're too young to own guns, but they're old enough to tell us that we can't own guns.
And that's exactly what you're saying.
Never mind the fact that at 18, you're a soldier.
So I guess those people can have guns.
Some kids are soldiers.
Right, correct.
Yes.
At 18, you could go in and become a part of the military.
So anyway, so that's what's going on.
And I think we've covered it quite well.
And we'll just see what happens going forward.
I think very little will happen.
But the fact that these people have been used in that way, it's a shame that the parents would allow it.
And I, you know, you know, I saw this as they were going up and being bussed up to Tallahassee in just hours after the shooting.
You know, these kids, I mean, I'm sure it was traumatic, and I'm sure it impacted their lives forever.
But they were in the bus going up to Tallahassee to cry in front of the state legislature in Florida, and they were just having a good time.
I mean, you see pictures of them, you know, shucking and jiving on the bus and laughing and having a good time.
I mean, again, I'm not trying to minimize what they went through, but I doubt it impacted them as much as people are saying, quite frankly.
Now, let's go very quickly because we only have about four minutes remaining.
Black Lives Matter is honored again.
So Sean has cemented his legacy as a hero to our audience for his reporting on terrorism and Black Lives Matter specifically.
He's well-versed in all issues, but typically when there's an issue of terrorism or an issue of Black Lives Matter, we bring Sean on.
And as we saw in Ferguson and in some of these other places, Baltimore, Charlotte, etc., even here in Memphis, a hallmark of these, when they have a grievance, is to go out and to shut down interstate traffic, to loot, to plunder, to burn things, and to generally have a good time rioting.
And I think a lot of these people see this as carte blanche, a blank check to riot.
When a black man is killed, that gives them the free reign to just be, well, whatever.
But so we had it in Sacramento.
So what I know of this story is very simply a 22-year-old black man, it was about 2 a.m. in the morning, and he was jumping fences in his neighborhood.
They believed that he may have been someone who was breaking into cars.
He was jumping fences.
You see the thermal imaging from the police helicopter.
First of all, if you're jumping fences at 2 a.m. in the morning, you're probably up to no good.
Now, you don't deserve a death sentence for that, but we don't know what was said in the exchange between him and the police.
And they said they didn't know that his cell phone was a gun.
He was approaching them with his arm extended, and they didn't know if it was a gun.
Okay, it may have been a mistake by the cops.
We don't have all the facts.
What we do know is that once again, Black Lives Matter in Sacramento, they shut down an NBA arena.
They blocked ticket holders from accessing the Sacramento Kings versus the Atlanta Hawks basketball game a couple of days ago.
They were once again stopping traffic on the interstate.
And with that, Sean, with only two minutes remaining, we go to you.
Well, you know, here we have Black Lives Matter again.
And, you know, it's all their affiliated organizations.
They are struggling right now to remain relevant because they have not had an opportunity to go out and take to the streets like they did under Barack Obama, where they were invited guests to the White House.
Stephon Clark is the man we're talking about, 22-year-old father of two people.
As you said, 22-year-old black man out at 2 o'clock in the morning wearing a hoodie, smashing car windows, and the helicopter caught him smashing a patio door in a house.
Now, in that situation, if the police tell you to stop, you stop.
If you start running and jumping over fences and running into backyards, those cops don't know if you have a gun, if you're leading them into a bigger, broader ambush.
You have just taken what could be a simple B ⁇ E, you know, breaking and entering arrest and turned it now into a major event with helicopters, police chases.
And the minute you do that, you put everybody's lives in jeopardy, including the cops.
Okay?
So, you know, one of the police officers has been identified.
He's African-American.
He's a black man.
So, you know, we'll see how they're going to try and turn that into some type of racial issue because that's always where this goes.
No real facts.
We do have, like you said, mentioned some video from a helicopter thermal imaging that looks pretty damning for the perpetrator in this place, Stephen Clark.
We do have body cam footage from the police, but it doesn't really make out.
It's a little unclear.
You hear the verbal commands, you hear them stop, stop, stop.
And, you know, look, it's a tragic situation that came about because this guy, if you're a father or two, there's no reason for you to be out smashing clone windows at two o'clock in the morning.
Just taking that step alone now puts you in a very bad place.
And when the cops tell you to stop running, you put everybody in jeopardy.
And these kinds of tragedies are going to come from events like that.
But it's like a snowball cascading effect where there is a series of really bad decisions leading up to the ultimate act.
And it was the same thing with this kid cruise down in Parkland.
It was multiple FBI reports, multiple police reports.
There was a whole chain of events that could have gone into play there to bring that to an abrupt halt before it ever turned tragic.
And, you know, here we are yet again with the same situation where there are lives lost because, you know, one or two people in the whole thing are acting like idiots.
Well, I think that's an outstanding opening salvo, Sean, and we would expect nothing less from you if it continues to escalate.
And so the first 24 hours, it certainly made the news, God knows.
They were going to jump on that and jump on that narrative.
Since then, we have had the shutting down of traffic.
We have had the shutting down of the NBA game.
I think there were about 2,000 people in the NBA game because nobody else could access.
That's lawlessness.
Let me tell you something, folks.
I don't care.
That's breaking the law to shut down traffic.
That's breaking the law to shut down an NBA game.
Every single person out there, whether they were well-intentioned or not, should have been arrested on the spot or moved.
And so this is what we're talking about.
So if this continues to gain steam, and we're out of time, Sean, and folks, if you want more Sean Bergen, if you just listen to the last 30 minutes, surely you want more Sean Bergen.
He's going to be hosting Red 42 immediately after TPC.
Sean, if this continues to escalate, I'd love to have you back next week and talk more about it.
Until then, thank you for coming on.
Every show's better when you're on it.
Thank you, buddy.
I'll see you soon.
All right, Sean Bergen, everybody.
We'll be back to wrap up the show with Jack Ryan.
The last two segments.
Stay tuned. Protecting your legs.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
We fought.

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 machinery.
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.
Together.
Together.
Dear Christine, I wanted to write and tell you some exciting news.
What, um, 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.

Jojo left his home in Tulsa, Arizona.
Awesome, California.
Get back.
Get back.

Get back.
Get back.
Get back to where you once belong.
Get back, JoJo.
All right, everybody.
How about the last two segments?
Wasn't John Bergen fantastic, ladies and gentlemen?
Yes, he was.
He always is.
And I'll tell you another man who always is, the one and only Jack Ryan.
And Jack always has good music to lead into his segments of the item.
Get back.
Jack, who do we want to get back?
Hi, James.
Yeah, I wanted to dedicate that song, that great Beatle song, get back to the new politically correct leftist Muslim Pakistani mayor of London, London stands, Tadiq Khan, who so many bad people.
We've got a lot of listeners across the planet, I think, in England, but this guy is nasty.
Not only did they not do anything against these terrible terrorists and these child rapists, the thousand girls in Rotherham and the like, but he is actually persecuting anyone who just comes out and opposes these rapists, putting people in jail.
So our freedom of speech is under attack, more so, I think, in England than the United States.
So I wanted to dedicate that song to get back.
And if you're ever in a situation when they're pushing in politically collected stuff, just crank up this Beatles song and just tell them to get back.
Because get back and they shouldn't be doing this and they need to get out of our life.
Amen.
Hey, get back dedicated to the mayor of London.
And we want him to get back to his Antichrist Muslim homelands.
And man, isn't it a shame that the empire upon which the sun never set, they don't even control the streets of their own capital anymore.
Can you imagine?
Definitely a fall.
Definitely a fall big time.
Like, you know, we can come back.
People thought New York City was dead.
I was there in the late, mid to late 80s.
They thought it was collapsed, and then it and then came back.
We elected a strong mayor, Rudolph Giuliani.
He cleaned up the city, and London is doing well.
And Leningrad, the communists owned it for a long time, but now Leningrad is St. Petersburg.
And St. Petersburg is a great country with strong leaders.
And if they can take back their places, so can we.
Yeah, I'll tell you what, if Selma ever comes back, then I'll get excited.
But hey, we might talk a little bit more.
You're with us for two segments tonight, as opposed to your normal one.
And maybe a little later tonight, if we have time, we'll talk about some of the encouraging things that have happened, including the re-election of Vladimir Putin and Victor Orban's recent speech, which was probably the greatest speech given by a head of state in Europe in many decades.
So there are good things happening in the white world, folks.
Maybe just not in your neighborhood.
But anyway, so get back.
We want the mayor of London to get back.
And let's talk about your recommendations for book and movie this week, and we'll get down to the theme of the week.
Okay, so my movie recommendation is Hope and Glory, 1987.
I think Jeff Borman is the director of it.
It's the tale of a young boy, I don't know, about eight or nine years old, during World War II in London during the Blitz.
And it's England, it's very much like Gone with a Wind.
This is a different world that was just so different.
Everyone there is English, it's white.
The BBC is there.
It's based on that song, the national song, Elgar, Hope and Glory, Land of Hope and Glory.
It's a fantastic movie.
I liken it very much with Gone with the Wind.
And that world of England, that world of just homogeneity, the BBC, the Anglican church, it's a great, just a great world that should be still around.
He was probably still around a little bit in the Beatles in the 60s, but now it's gone.
It doesn't exist.
So that's my recommendation, Hope and Glory.
My book recommendations, I don't have one, but it's all the politically incorrect works of William Shakespeare.
And they're probably going to be banned pretty soon.
If you get caught with Ostello and the Merchant or Venice or something, you're going to be in a lot of trouble.
But hey, come on.
It's the greatest works of the English language.
All right.
So that is the movie recommendation, correct?
Right.
All right.
What about the book?
Well, the book was Shakespeare's any of their ones.
I was going to give you some quotes to see if you could get the one.
What's the quote?
Now it's the winter of our discontent.
What's that?
Oh, come on now.
Don't put me on the spot.
I have to bone up on my Shakespeare.
That's Richard the Film.
I was rereading a Robert Frost poem this week, so if you'd have quoted that, I might have.
Okay, but here's another quote.
There's this, the hero of the play some issues, and there's some woman that's trying to distract and go on.
And he just says to her inner face, he says, get thee to a nunnery.
What's that, sir?
Jack, you got to give me the answers ahead of the test.
You're making me look bad, brother.
Denmark, that's Hamlet Prince of Denmark.
Ophelia, they're trying to buy him off.
He's like, well, he's a no-nonsense guy.
He's got to do his stuff.
And he just devils there.
Get thee to a nunnery.
Get out of here.
So drop some Shakespeare.
So our people that are activists, if you can quote the bard of Stratford upon Avon, you're going to be come off pretty good.
It's going to help you in your life.
Yeah, Sam Bushman just said, Hamlet, what did you say, Sam?
Hamlet Act 3, Scene 1.
So I guess we got one.
I don't think you have to know each scene there or things like that.
It's a bit a little bit too tough.
But just know the place.
And then this politically incorrect stuff, forget the merchant of Venice.
You can't do Macbeth because it's very typical against the Scottish people that they're violent and that they are superstitious and that they're Macbeth is my favorite Shakespeare play.
And then Roman Polanski is Macbeth.
He's a disgusting, terrible person, but the movie is fantastic.
It's the greatest Shakespeare presentation of all the time.
So that's a lot of things in there.
But I'm just saying in this politically correct world coming up, yeah, just do some Shakespeare.
And anyone says you can't read Shakespeare or that's politically incorrect or whatever.
Just crank out the Beatles song, come and get back.
Get out of your life, man.
That's what we're going to do.
One of our most loyal listeners and one of our most loyal contributors insists that I forevermore call you our cultural correspondent, TPC's cultural correspondent, because you are a man of the world.
You are a worldly man, and you have a lot of knowledge, and you are well-cultured.
And you've been all over the United States and indeed have an affinity for things worldwide.
I'll tell you this.
I love the South.
It's a great place.
The North is the direction, but the South is the place.
It's a special movie.
You got that right, brother.
I remember who said it.
I'm on fake, but I forgot who said that.
Well, we'll have our producer.
We have the best producer in the business and the best network owner in the business.
He's one of the same.
But he can look that up.
But yeah, so, Jack, we have two segments with you this week, so we're dragging our feet and getting into the theme of the week, and that's okay because we have extended play.
I will tell you this.
My wife and I watched a movie this week.
I meant to watch it a couple of years ago, and I missed it.
And it is, I knew it was going to be a horrible movie in terms of just the overall message and the ending.
But sometimes with horrible movies, the beginning of it is pretty good, and so you can latch onto that.
But the movie is denial.
Denial.
Timothy Sproll plays David Irving, and Rachel Weiss plays Deborah Lipstadt.
And this was, of course, about one of the huge trial in 2000 that took place in the UK over David Irving's work as a historian.
And, of course, I know David Irving.
I have no David Irving.
David Irving and I have spoken at conferences together before.
In fact, I was on vacation.
I did not know this was going to happen.
I was on vacation one time, and we arrived at the facility.
Had no idea.
I mean, obviously, this wasn't a planned reunion, but I got out and I was struggling with my bags, and my wife and children were there, and a gentleman opened the door for me.
He said, would you like any help with your luggage?
And I looked up and it was David Irving.
I mean, what are the odds of that?
That actually happened.
Anyway, so we watched this movie.
And Rachel Weiss, obviously, they took some liberty.
She's much better looking than Deborah Lipstock.
But anyway, we watched that.
Have you seen that movie?
I thought that the actor that played Irving.
I'm familiar with the subject.
I've actually got a lot of expertise.
If you want to bring me on for like 20 hours, I could get into this subject, which would deal.
It's a different one.
But basically, I look at this one as this is the subject they just try to beat our head in on something like that.
So people in Iowa or Michigan or the South, we don't have to carry huge guilt about some atrocity that supposedly happened in World War II and the June 1.
Because that's not our deal.
So that's not something that happened.
Yeah, they're going to exaggerate.
Lots of people suffered on all sides.
Everything that the German and their allies did, the Soviets did too.
And so you're going to have that one.
So, don't let people throw some guilt trip on you on this.
That's another subject, but we got to go for it.
Yeah, it is another subject that was not intended on my part to open a can of worms.
It was just what we're talking about movies and books.
That was actually a movie that I saw this week.
We had talked about it in 2016 when the movie was coming out.
And we never did watch it.
We never did follow up on it, but I actually did watch it this week, and it was what you would expect out of a Hollywood production on that topic.
But anyway, we'll be back right after this.
More from Jack.

To get on the show, call us on James's Dime at 1-866-986-6397.
Okay, folks, I was going to tell you something and it escaped me.
I'm not sure what it was.
Oh, I will tell you this.
Good news.
If we don't have time to get to it with Jack tonight, a lot of good news on the blog this week, thepoliticalcesspool.org.
Thepolitical Cesspool.org.
Now, there on our blog, we will post articles written by other writers that we may be covering on the program, or we'll keep you up to date on all of the news that is news with regards to our show.
So we put up a post yesterday about the road not taken.
I would like for you to read it, but we also posted some good news, and we mentioned it a moment ago with regard to Victor Orban's speech, which I believe was the greatest speech to come from a European head of state in many decades.
And of course, the re-election of Vladimir Putin, there is good news out there that we can invest some hope in.
So check out thepoliticalaccesspool.org where we talk more about that.
Also, we just had a caller from Ireland, from Ireland, who wants a piece of the Jefferson Davis slate.
And for this caller in Ireland, I would say email me and I will make sure that you get a piece.
Email me, JamesEdwards at thepolitical Cesspool.org.
JamesEdwards at thepoliticalasspool.org, and we will get you a piece of that slate.
It is an honor to have people tuned in tonight in the wee hours of the morning over in Ireland, Jack.
What about that?
Jack Ryan, let's go.
Actually, hold on, Jack, before you respond, and we got to get to your theme of the week.
We want to take a caller.
Our producers just told me we have a caller, Jules.
He actually just got his piece of the Jefferson Davis slate.
Jules, take it away.
Yeah, I did, and I appreciate it, man.
I got a piece of history.
I mean, he's in my lineage, so he's part of my ancestry.
So I'm glad to get it.
Well, I know you've been a longtime listener of the radio program, and you've been a longtime supporter.
And actually, ladies and gentlemen, this listener right now, Jules, wrote to me earlier this week to tell me how excited he was about getting the piece.
And so I made sure his went out in the first batch.
We haven't got a chance to get them all addressed and shipped yet.
But I'll tell you who else, Jules, got a piece of that slate this week.
Pat Buchanan.
How about that?
Oh, great.
He's a great man.
And Sam Bushman.
He's a southerner, definitely.
Yes, he is.
All right.
Well, listen, Jules, thank you for the call.
I'm so glad you got it.
I'm so glad other people are getting it.
We're going to sit out of it.
It's been a while.
It's hard to get in.
I know you're busy, so, but I appreciate you taking my call.
And God bless you and save the South.
Hey, thank you, Jules, and thanks to everybody who's donated.
And for everyone who will continue to donate, we got a listener in New Jersey today who contacted me and said, please reserve a piece of that Jefferson Davis home for me.
The check is in the mail all the way up in New Jersey.
So people all around the country and indeed all around the world, as we just mentioned, a caller from Ireland was saying, hey, I want one too.
We got pieces left, and we want to get those out to people who will cherish them because, as I said, those broken pieces don't.
It's not just a piece of Jefferson Davis' home.
It's a piece of history.
It's a piece of what that cause represented.
Jack, you got listeners in Ireland tonight, brother.
So tell us the theme.
Okay, the theme was the patron saints of the British Ireland world and how it translates into the United States of America.
So Ireland, Wales, Scotland, and England, what are the patron saints?
You know, I guess Protect is the patron saint of Ireland, but who's the patron saint of Wales, Scotland, and England?
Please tell us.
Surely Patrick Clayburn.
Wales, he's not real famous, it's David.
But the patron saint of Scotland is St. Andrew.
So you have the St. Andrews.
Ah, wait, you know I knew that.
Well, of course you knew that.
England, okay, this was something that knew a long time ago, and it's gone down and it's politically incorrect.
But the patron saint of England is St. George that slew the dragon, and he's patriotic, and he's there.
And the Crusaders, English Germans that were fighting the Muslims in the Holy Land, St. George appeared.
So he's a very big inspirational figure, and he is very severely suppressed in England.
I think in Australia's American.
these politically correct Saik Khan and things like you can't celebrate St. George's Day in England, which is the patron state.
It's coming up in April.
But I think we should make a big deal about it, and we should celebrate St. George's Day, and we should make a big deal about it.
And then he's the saint that, you know, our Irish people are great.
You know, we like them too, but not everyone's Irish, and we've got to step up for it.
So we're going to try to do some celebration of St. George's Day in Chicago and other places.
And I'd encourage our listeners to do that.
And it doesn't mean that you don't like St. Patrick, but it's just a different thing of a related people.
You know, that's a great point, Jack, because, of course, St. Patrick gets and, of course, his holidays have been bastardized too.
I mean, St. Patrick was a great Christian.
And now it's just synonymous with debauchery and drinking.
Drinking drunk and acting stupid.
Yeah.
But you're right.
I mean, you talk about the United Kingdom.
What are we talking about?
We're talking about England.
We're talking about Scotland.
We're talking about Wales.
We're talking about Ireland.
So each four, you know, that's four.
That's four pieces.
That's a quadrant.
And it all goes into what is now known as Great Britain or the United Kingdom.
And it is not just Ireland or the Irish who have their patron saint that should be remembered and is remembered.
Perhaps not in the way that he should be, but he is remembered.
But there are others as well.
So I appreciate you bringing that forward tonight, Jack.
Right.
Okay, my other issue was, well, I'll answer one, is the Japanese Constitution.
So it's got the idea.
One of my complaints is that a lot of our people get all wrapped up in laws, like the Constitution and things like that.
So I was going to ask you tonight, James, how many Japanese regulators were slaughtered by Islamic terrorists led into Japan on student visas to go to flight school in Japan?
Is it 3,300?
Is it 30?
How many of these Japanese people were slaughtered by Islamic terrorists in Japan?
None.
A very provocative question.
So you're asking me and the audience how many Japanese were slaughtered by Islamic terrorists.
I couldn't even venture to terror.
These girls were sexually groomed, raped by Pakistani Muslim gangs in Japan.
I mean, how many was it like a lot?
Thousands or like, it would it be like zero?
And my advice would be zero.
So if I ask, it's like, is it in the Japanese Constitution to say specifically that we don't allow Islamic terrorists to come into Japan, go to flight school and murder people?
We don't allow Pakistani Muslim gangs to sexually groom or rape the people.
I don't think it is in the Constitution.
I think most Japanese people don't care because Japan is run by sane, positive, good people that don't do stupid stuff.
And I'd like for our country, all regions, all states, to be run by good, sane, positive people who don't, they don't get all bent on about constitutions and stuff like that.
Let's protect their own people.
Let's see that our young girls are protected.
Let's see we're not murdered on these things.
And let's not get all obsessed about constitutions and things like that.
So I think the Japanese are just are doing better than we are in this area.
That's just my personal view.
Well, there's no doubt about it.
And of course, any nation, any people should be governed by a sensible rule of laws.
And I'm thankful for the attempt and the effort that the founding fathers put forward.
It was the best that they could do with the information that they had at the time.
I don't think there's any way that they could have possibly known how insane Americans would have become.
But you're right.
They had slavery they lost, that there was a Barbary Coast pirate or some stuff.
They could have put it in the Constitution, but we don't, we don't, everything has to be written down.
You just have to do basic, sensible things and have good people.
And I got to say that the Japanese in Hong Kong, Singapore, Chinese, they're just doing better than we are in certain basic things.
So that's criminalized.
Well, that's a theme tonight.
You bring up a great point.
So why is that?
Why don't they catch the hell that we do for protecting their own people?
I just think that they just don't really give an F. Occasionally, once every five or 10 years, some black American soldier in Okinawa rapes a Japanese girl.
There's a big fuss.
They threaten to throw out the American bases and stuff like that.
So they do that.
And, you know, they're just, I don't know.
The best thing I ever did in my life was I was the public school teacher in Brooklyn after college.
I was in seventh and eighth grade.
And you got insulted and attacked every day.
After a while, I just don't really care if someone is getting in your face and yelling at you and calling you names.
And I just feel like the leaders of our country, of our regions, they shouldn't get all bent out of shape if someone says that they're politically incorrect or something.
I think we should protect our people, particularly our 11-year-old girls.
We shouldn't allow them to be raped.
And the idea that someone says, oh, you're politically incorrect and you're not sensitive.
And, you know, just I basically just say, tonight, my version is piss off, crank up the Beatles version, get back, get back to where you are, and don't get into some intellectual argument.
Just crank it up as loud as you can and do what we can.
That's my view.
That's my theme tonight.
Jack Ryan, ladies and gentlemen, a true Renaissance man.
I mean, can you believe this guy?
He's lived everywhere.
And I did not, even I, as long as I've known Jack, and it's been a while, and we've been working together for several months now as he is a regular contributor on the radio.
I did not know he was a public school teacher in Brooklyn.
But Jack never ceases to amaze.
And I'm just looking at the clock, Jack, and I know we have seconds remaining, only seconds.
You've been with us for a half hour.
It's gone by far too quickly.
You're a fan and favorite.
And there's the music.
I was going to give you the final word, but folks, hear again from Jack next week.
And if you want a piece of that Davis Slate, $100 or more is the contribution.
We'll send it out to you on Monday.
We're going to send out a whole nother batch on Monday to a lot of people in a lot of parts of the world.
