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.
Every time we have Paul Kersey on, I know it's going to be a fantastic show.
He is a commentator, par excellence.
He has a great delivery, and he is a utility guy who can talk confidently about any topic.
Paul Kersey, of course, a prolific author, a blogger, a speaker, returning tonight to talk about last week's presentation of the Academy Awards.
The last couple of times we've had Paul on, it has been in his capacity as a film critic and a movie reviewer, and he does a lot of great work on that topic as well.
But I was watching the Oscars.
I noticed Paul had, or rather, I didn't watch them.
I was reading about them after the fact to see who won and what the commentary was.
And I noticed that you're not afraid of the picture.
You're not a glutton from punishment like that watching him.
But Paul had put out a couple of tweets.
I said, this is a perfect opportunity to invite him back.
And I'm so pleased that he accepted the invitation.
Paul, how are you?
James, and to your fantastic listening audience, I'm doing fantastic.
Hope all is well with you as well.
It is.
Great to have you back on.
Another new year, but the work still continues.
So you were, I guess you, if not watched it yourself, you certainly know what was going on there.
Break it down for us.
I know there was a trend a year or two ago where if a white person won an Academy Award, I mean, it was a great evil and a great injustice.
And so they had to take care of that and make sure that the Academy Awards were doled out the way scholarships and jobs are, where if a woman or a minority or a female minority or whatever, if they were in the running at all, by God, they better win.
Was that pretty much the gist of it?
Yeah, I mean, it started back in 2015.
You had the hashtag Oscars.
So white controversy when too many Caucasians were nominated for the best actor and best actress.
2016, the same thing happened.
2017, they did a lot to try and rectify this.
And in the 91st edition of the Academy Awards, which, as you stated, just transpired last Sunday night, we saw another one of these white guilt porn type films.
The Green Book win Best Picture.
Also nominated for The Black Panther.
And what was it, Black Klansman, the movie about that Spike Lee directed that I think he won best, I think he won best screenplay for.
So yeah, three really over-the-top white guilt films and the Green Book, which is a biographical film about a black musician who has a white chauffeur driving through the old South.
And there was something a long time ago called the Negro Motorist Green Book.
It was a mid-20th century guidebook for black travelers, which would help them know what motels and restaurants would serve them.
That was the concept and that was the trope behind this latest white guilt film that falls in the same path of movies like 12 Years a Slave and Jane Go Unchained, Hidden Figures from a few years ago, where they retconned the idea that the Apollo program was nothing more than a couple really smart hip, woke black scientists, mathematicians, actually.
And that's the only reason we went to the moon.
And, you know, I wrote a couple things for Jared Taylor's site, American Renaissance, and for Peter Brillow's site, V-Dair, about the fact that this is the 50th anniversary this year of the landing on the moon with the Apollo 11 program on July 20th, 1969.
And there's this beautiful movie that I encourage all of your listeners to see called First Man.
It stars Ryan Gosling and Neil Armstrong.
A lot of people attacked it because a lot of civic nationalists attacked it, James, because they said, well, it doesn't show the American flag being planted on the moon.
Actually, the movie does.
And the movie, more importantly, shows the bravery of all of the men, all of the white men who were part of the Gemini program and those Apollo programs that got us to the moon.
And I just want to let your listeners marinate on this thought because there's a great line in First Man where Neil Armstrong says, you know, we only learned to fly in 1903.
And it's 1967.
So we're talking about a little less than 65 years where we're on the verge of going to the moon.
And put that into context.
I mean, I think you're under 40.
So think about that.
If you were born in 1903, you'd only be up to, in your 40, you'd only be up to 19.
If you were born in 1903, it would be 1943.
And you're still about 26 years away from the landing on the moon.
That just shows you in what a short span of time our people progressed to heights never before seen in the history of humankind.
Unfortunately, that is true progress, not what they, you know, today degeneracy is a synonym for progress, but that was true progress.
Unfortunately, not much progress has been made since then.
They put a stop to it right around that time.
But Paul, again, with regards to these movies, my takeaways were this, and thank you for the recommendation of First Man with Ryan Gosling.
The biggest takeaways I had from the Oscars, and in the next segment, my co-host Keith Alexander is going to make an observation as well.
But the fact now, you know, used to, you only had five movies nominated for Best Picture, which is the biggest award that they give movie of the year, so to speak.
Now you've got double that, basically everything that comes out now nominated for Best Picture.
The fact that Black Panther and Black Klansman, now, I think it's suffice to say that these were not cinematic masterpieces, but of course they had to be nominated.
The Green Book, this white-hating, this self-hating, self-loathing film that did have a majority white production staff, you would think that the blacks would be appreciative that these whites are out there cucking like this and making fools of themselves.
But no, Spike Lee turned his back and was so upset that Black Klansman didn't win Picture of the Year that he couldn't even celebrate the fact that just another white-hating film had been awarded the biggest prize.
So Black Panther, Black Klansman being nominated at all.
Now, they didn't win Best Picture, but they did win a slew of other awards.
And then Spike Lee's response to Green Book winning Best Picture instead of Black Klansman, your reaction to all of that.
Well, it's fascinating what you just talked about in regards to Spike Lee turning his back as he was, as he already had gotten his first kind of lifetime achievement award for best original screenplay for Black Klansmen, and he's backstage.
And as you said, he turned his back because he was so disgusted.
A lot of people, a lot of leftist movie reviewers and black nationalists have attacked the Green Book movie because it has the white savior trope.
You can't do that in the current year of 2019, where you have the character that Vico Mortensen played, the white chauffeur, this ethnic white Italian from New York.
He was the gentleman in the movie who helped this black musician survive in the Jim Crow South.
And so it's a white savior trope, and this is not allowed because it doesn't sufficiently show it's still placating this idea that without white men, that these characters wouldn't be able to exist.
And so, again, the left will always eat its own.
And even though this movie checks every anti-white market that's necessary, it still wasn't enough.
Ladies and gentlemen, we're going to take a break right there.
We've got Paul Kersey for one more segment.
Now, before we run out of time with Paul tonight, we're going to let him give you all the contact information, let you know what he's up to these days and where you can find him.
Paul Kersey, the one and only, truly one of my all-time favorite guests.
I love Paul and I love his work and I love having him on.
We're going to talk with him a little bit longer about the Oscars and what's going on in Hollywood when TPC returns.
Stay tuned.
Do we reflect about our future and where we as a culture are moving?
Do we keep our trust in our jobs, homes, money, life necessities, investments, stock markets?
Do we believe that our 401ks or other retirements will always be there and that the current economic order will recover?
Is the economy going to recover and life return to normal?
It ain't going to happen by a friend of Medjagoria.
Whether you are poor, middle class, or rich, it ain't going to happen.
A book of astounding revelations about the present economic order and where we are heading.
It ain't going to happen by a friend of Medgagoria.
To order, visit medge.com, spelled NEJ.com, or call Caratos in the U.S. 205-672-2000.
Why don't we say to the government, writ large, that they have to spend a little bit less?
Anybody ever had less money this year than you had last?
Anybody better having a 1% pay cut?
You deal with it.
That's what government needs, a 1% pay cut.
If you take a 1% pay cut across the board, you have more than enough money to actually pay for the disaster relief.
But nobody's going to do that because they're fiscally irresponsible.
Who are they?
Republicans.
Who are they?
Democrats.
Who are they?
Virtually the whole body is careless and reckless with your money.
So the money will not be offset by cuts anywhere.
The money will be added to the debt, and there will be a day of reckoning.
What's the day of reckoning?
The day of reckoning may well be the collapse of the stock market.
The day of reckoning may be the collapse of the dollar.
When it comes, I can't tell you exactly, but I can tell you it has happened repeatedly in history when countries ruin their currency.
Hey, listen up.
This is a deep state alert.
Former Texas Congressman Steve Stockman, who moved to arrest Lois Lerner for contempt of Congress, has been imprisoned by the very office that Lerner led.
You heard right.
Stockman hit the Obama administration hard and they hit back with the full force of the federal government.
The guy who said he wanted Mark Levin as Speaker of the House was the first to threaten Obama's impeachment, exposed Hillary's selling steel to the Iranians, and blocked both Obama's immigration and gun bills from even reaching the House.
But Obama holdovers came after him in federal court with trumped-up charges and have locked our guy up.
Like many others, he was on Obama's hit list.
Steve fought for us in Congress.
Now we need to fight for him.
Don't abandon this wounded hero on the battlefield.
Let's help cover his massive legal costs.
To chip in five bucks or more, text the word fight to 444-999.
That's fight, F-I-G-H-T to 444-999.
Or go to defendapatriot.com.
That's DefendAPatriot.com.

And now back to tonight's show.
Paul Kersey, our guest, we're certainly going to give Paul the opportunity to plug all of his contact information, how you can support his work, and we encourage you to do that.
He's one of the people out there that have been producing consistent results for many, many, many years.
And as we said a few minutes ago, there's not many of the people that can say that out there.
But we're talking about Hollywood tonight.
So I know you're saying, well, James, what do you expect?
It's Hollywood.
But it is interesting that even Hollywood is getting progressively worse.
And again, that is what progress means today, progressively worse.
But Keith, before we toss it back to Paula, you and I were talking earlier in the Black Panther winning.
I think it was the first comic book movie that won an Academy Award.
And it is under the Disney umbrella, and you thought that was some significance.
Right.
First of all, Disney made all sorts of cartoon movies that were far better than Black Panther.
And they never won Oscar for Best Picture.
Very few of them were ever nominated, even.
And secondly, think about what has happened, the metamorphosis of Disney Studios.
Under Walt Disney, during his lifetime, I think he died in 66, they made wholesome, well produced movies, well-directed movies.
Basically, you know, they were a beacon even back then.
But now, Disney is leading the charge in anti-white, anti-American movies.
What has happened, Paul?
What's going on?
Well, it's fascinating you bring up Walt Disney.
Think back to the 1950s and the platform that he gave Vernon von Braun to talk about space and space exploration.
There's an amazing series called Tomorrowland where Von Braun, and this is, we're talking about less than 10 years, guys, after World War II.
And Von Braun is given a national platform to go on, I think it was ABC that they did this.
And remember, there were only three channels back then.
So the entire country is watching this conversation that Walt Disney and Von Braun are having.
And you're right.
The Walt Disney Studio, they probably should have won Academy Awards for The Lion King.
I think they came out in 1994.
Beautiful cartoon.
A lot of the stuff they made in the mid-90s was fantastic from a cartoon basis.
Even once they bought Pixar in the late 90s or early 2000s, think of how good the Pixar film The Incredibles is and the anti-egalitarian message of that movie, which is a wonderful superhero movie.
Toy Story, which came out in the mid-90s, I want to say 96 or 97, that was the first computer animated movie.
I mean, we're about to see Toy Story 4 come out this year.
And all of those, if you have young children, those are much-watched movies.
Absolutely nothing objectionable.
Just wonderful stories about loyalty, friendship, and being true to oneself.
And I think those are just timeless messages.
You're right.
Those are great movies that Disney put out with Black Panther, part of the Marvel cinematic universe.
Obviously, a minor character in the Marvel, in the Marvel, in the Pantheon of the Marvel characters, but black Americans, Africans in America, they decided to show up en masse.
And the movie made, I mean, my God, the movie made $700 million.
It made more money domestically than Avengers Infinity War did.
Now, it didn't do anywhere near the number that your average action movie makes overseas because the Chinese just aren't interested in watching movies with blacks or the Russians in these major markets.
But in America, black came out to support it.
And it'll be interesting to see moving forward what happens with the inevitable sequel to the first Black Panther, which I think is supposed to come out next year in 2020.
But, you know, James, and to all your listeners, there is still good stuff being made.
And I do just want to say, if you have young children and you want to teach them about what America once was, once again, get past all this civic nationalist nonsense.
Check out First Man.
It is a beautiful film.
In fact, show them Apollo 13, the movie that came out in 1995 with Tom Hanks, and showed them First Man.
I mean, we're talking about in 2018, movie reviewers were attacking First Man because it was too white.
And it's like, wait a second, we can't go back and pretend that, you know, Buzz Aldrin was a black guy.
We can't pretend that he's Matt's astronauts.
Well, they might.
Yes, we can.
Exactly.
Unfortunately, you're right.
I mean, think about what happened with Hidden Figures, where they tried to retcon the whole idea of who was behind it.
It was German scientists brought over from Operation Paperclip, primarily that got us to the moon.
Let's be honest.
But there is still some good stuff coming out.
And you just have to understand that we live in a country where virtually all of the entertainment industry is 365, 24-7, anti-white.
And that goes doubly for academia and for the advertising industry and basically everything that we encounter on a daily basis.
But there is still good stuff being produced.
And as you both noted, you can go back and can still fire up your TV player and watch stuff that Disney came out with in the 1960s.
Basically anything that was made in Walt Disney's time.
And if you can find it, a bootleg version of Song of the South, that's a movie everyone should watch.
Amen.
Well, Paul, let me say this.
I am, I guess, anti-diluvian.
I'm actually a member of the boomer generation.
And I remember excellent movies like Snow White, which set a wonderful example for young girls.
It showed you that the real queen was the queen of domesticity.
She comes into the lives of the seven dwarfs and brings cleanliness and order and whatnot.
And compare her to the little mermaid, who basically is just a little hoe.
She just, you know, she crimps up and tries to look as pretty as she can, but she has none of those virtues.
I wouldn't be that hard on the little mermaid, but I like it well enough.
But see, the thing I, I look at things like Darby O'Gill and the Little People, I would recommend you watch that, which is basically Walt Disney's love letter to the Irish.
Well, I'll tell you, you and Paul could rap on for hours on end about movies.
You've got to go to Keith South one day, Paul.
He's got every movie that ever came out on VHS.
It's an incredible collection.
But, Paul, listen, I appreciate you coming on and giving us some of your valuable time to talk about this.
We want to get your contact information and let you close out with anything you want to share with the audience.
Hey, I've got nothing to pitch except to tell everyone support James Edwards.
He has been a warrior for going on almost two decades with the political cesspool, tireless, wonderful advocate.
Support, support, support the political cesspool.
James Edwards is a national treasurer.
One day he will be honored for all that he's sacrificed and all that he's done for his people.
If you want to check out the latest that Paul Gercy is doing, I do a weekly podcast with Jared Taylor at American Renaissance, and I am now happy to say that I'm an exclusive blogger over at unz.com.
Ron Unz is also another man who is a national treasure.
Steve Taylor blogs for him, and I'm honored to have been asked to join that site.
So if you go to unsunz.com forward slash SBPDL, once again, that's uns.com forward slash SBPDL.
You can find out the latest.
And one movie I'd like to say, James, hopefully you've shown your kids this.
The Disney film The Swiss Family Robinson.
Honestly, it might be my favorite film ever made.
It's another one made before 66.
When Roy Disney took over, that's when the decline started, I think, at least from my vantage point.
But everything that, you know, Walt Disney did, Dumbo.
Well, you look at what his critics have said about it.
I mean, Walt Disney was pretty rock-ribbed in his traditionalism and a great man.
He really was an American hero.
I think, Paul, when you think about heroes, you normally think about war heroes, and rightly so, but there are other forms of heroes too.
Walt Disney is a hero of mine, and I'm sure to many of our people out there, he was just a poor kid from the Midwest who...
He lived with his grandparents.
He moved to Thayer, Missouri, and that's where he developed his affinity and love for middle America.
And, you know, the things that, you know, he personified in those movies was just incomparable even back in the day.
Paul, I want to thank you so much again.
And I want to thank you for the kind words you said, my friend.
We've known each other for a long, long time.
And, of course, that's reciprocated tenfold.
Thank you, Paul, and we'll talk to you again soon.
Thank you.
Paul Kersey, everybody, over at UNS now.
Check him out.
We'll be right back.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
USA Radio News with Wendy King.
At a conservative conference just outside Washington, D.C. North Korea has an incredible, brilliant economic future if they make a deal.
But they don't have any economic future.
If they have nuclear weapons, it's really a bad thing for them.
So we'll see how it all goes.
But I think it's going well.
President Trump spent more than two hours on stage at CPAC accusing Democrats of staging a socialist nightmare.
The president also said he'll sign an executive order requiring colleges to support free speech if they want federal funds.
Attorneys for President Trump's former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, are urging a judge for less time than the 19 to 24 years recommended under sentencing guidelines.
He was convicted of eight counts of fraud last year.
Manafort will be sentenced on Thursday.

The top prosecutor in Sacramento, Anne-Marie Schubert, says it was a tragedy, but two police officers will not face charges in the fatal shooting of an unarmed black man.
Was a crime committed?
There's no question that human being died.
But when we look at the facts in the law and we follow our ethical responsibilities, the answer to that question is no.
22-year-old Stephen Clark was running away from officers into his grandmother's backyard carrying not a gun but a cell phone.
The Trump administration is ramping up the pressure on Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro to leave office.
They've imposed sanctions on six high-ranking members of the Venezuelan security forces.
They've also revoked the visas of other officials and their relatives.
The sanctions come after the Maduro regime blocked humanitarian aid convoys and the revocation of visas are aimed at punishing those who have done well in Venezuela despite the economic upheaval in the country.

Paul Kersey, what a guy, what a guest.
And what a message.
Always so well spoken and inarticulate.
We have a ton of news stories, just random news stories that piqued my interest over the course of the last week.
We're going to hit them hard and hit them fast.
But before we start to dig into that pile, Keith, you wanted to offer a few final thoughts on the Paul Kersey interview and the topic we were discussing with him.
Well, I was just going to make some comments about Disney Studios.
Disney Studio was an outlier.
They were the last ones that weren't taken over by the typical power structure in Hollywood.
And basically, what the power structure did, the MGM Metro Goldwyn mayors and the Jack Warners and people like this, when they could not buy Disney out, when he refused to sell out, they tried to take him down.
They unionized his cartoonists and had them go on strike, thinking that would put him out of business.
And basically, they put him up against the wall financially.
His last card to play was the movie Dumbo.
If Dumbo had flopped, he would have gone into bankruptcy and they would have picked up the pieces for peanuts.
But instead, it was a big hit.
And after that, it was basically Disney against the rest of Hollywood.
That's probably why some of the excellent films that he made were never nominated for Academy Awards.
He got away from his dependence on cartoonish by having movies that were part cartoon and part regular movie, such as Song of the South, So Dear to My Heart, things like that, Melody Time.
And then by the early 50s, he made Treasure Island, which was all movie.
And again, if you'll notice in the 50s, there were a lot of English and Irish actors there.
And what happened was after World War II, England, in order to exhibit Hollywood movies, required Hollywood studios to make movies in England and to use English movie crews and English movie actors.
Most of Hollywood was very grudgingly accepting of this.
They did the least they could.
Disney, on the other hand, embraced it.
He said, well, this is wonderful.
I'm going to get to use these old Vic actors and all these wonderful technicians over here.
Plus, it gave him a chance to embrace Anglosphere culture in his movies.
So he made movies like Kidnapped based on Robert Louis Stevenson's famous novel.
He made Treasure Island, another Robert Louis Stevenson novel.
He then made Darby O'Gill and the Little People.
He made things like Tomasina, other things, English-themed with English actors and whatnot.
And these movies, I would recommend that you take a look at them.
They're charming.
Darby O'Gill and the Little People ought to be required viewing for anybody with Irish lineage on St. Patrick's Day.
It's just a wonderful movie.
You know, that's just the type of love that comes through the Disney under Walt Disney movies.
And I would recommend people, you know, you may be wanting to see Toy Story and things like this, but make the effort to look at things like Darby O'Gill and the Little People and Treasure Island and see just how good the production quality and direction is and acting in those movies.
Well, you're going to have to go back and watch them on tape, that's for sure, because movies like that aren't likely to be.
Well, you can get them on Netflix.
You can also get them on YouTube.
You can watch them when things turn around.
Yeah, well, sure.
No, you can find them.
But I'm just saying more movies like that aren't going to be made until things turn around in a pretty drastic fashion.
Well, maybe Hollywood needs to go out of business and that can be hastened too by just cutting down on the, they lengthened the period of time they had for protection, patent protection, trademark protection, cut it back to five years, and maybe we'd see Hollywood Crater.
And quite frankly, I would applaud if that happened.
Absolutely, wouldn't we all?
Okay, anyway, let's dive into the news bag.
So now we know for the past couple of weeks, going back nearly a month now, I guess, there was this big fake media outrage that was levied upon the governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam, for maybe he was in a black face, maybe he was in a Klan outfit, maybe he was in the story change.
We don't know what was going on there.
But he weathered that storm.
But now there's another issue plaguing the Northam family.
More fake outrage, more fake controversy.
I would normally rush to the defense of any white person who is being attacked over such a non-issue, but the Northams certainly deserve it for being despicable cucks.
But this time it was his wife.
And the headline reads in the Washington Post, Virginia First Lady Under Fire for handing cotton to African American students.
Now, give me a break, Keith.
My grandparents were sharecroppers.
My grandparents picked cotton.
You can't even give them a piece of cotton.
And what she was trying to do as another self-hating, self-deprecating, teachable moment, she was trying to empathize with them.
You can't even do that.
You were saying there's two things that a white person could say to a black.
I'm sorry.
And I said, well, that's what she was trying to do.
And I said that that's the only thing you can say.
You can't embellish on it or try to expand on it or else you are preempting their pet topic.
And what happened with Mrs. Northam and being told that she couldn't say, use this teachable moment and try to teach black children about slavery, only another black person could do it.
That is reminiscent of what Paul Kershey was just telling us about the movie that got Best Picture, Green Book.
Well, just like that, the reason why Spike Lee turned his back after Green Book won it is that, again, white people, this white savior chauffeur, for example, in this movie, had treaded onto forbidden ground.
They were white people trying to talk about a racial issue involving blacks.
White people are no longer allowed to talk to black people or to the larger community on these things.
White liberals need to go for unemployment compensation.
There's nothing left for them to talk about on the race issue.
And here's another thing that occurred to me.
So this was some school field trip.
I don't know what was going on or why the First Lady of Virginia was there, but she handed this young black girl a piece of cotton, and apparently that traumatized the black girl now.
Why would that traumatize her if not for the fact that her, I would say her parents, but most likely her mother has already invested in her, poured into her this whole cult of victimology, this whole thing about how evil and cotton and cotton is a noose and whatever the case.
I mean, why would that trouble a girl to be handed a piece of cotton if her mother hadn't told her a little story about it?
Well, I really think it probably wasn't even the mother, James.
It was probably one of these teachers or handlers.
What they're doing is they're making sure that basically white people are beyond redemption now.
Don't even try to get redeemed.
You just need to present yourself in the dock and meekly accept any punishment that black America chooses to meet out about you.
And that's not going to be pleasant, folks.
But that's what we're getting ready for.
That's what you're seeing.
You're seeing this gradual sea change where no longer are white liberals allowed to talk about race except to say, I'm sorry.
And they can't say anything more than I'm sorry.
So Northam really started a fad, though, with this yearbook thing.
So he had the yearbook thing, and then they said, well, let's look into the yearbooks of everybody that's a public figure.
And then they found Bill Lee here, the governor of Tennessee, had posed with or addressed as Robert E. Lee or something.
Just a more Confederate Union format, the Kappa Alpha Old South Ball, which was a fixture.
And they were honoring the greatest American who ever lived, General Robert Edward Lee.
But now there's a new one.
Now, this didn't make nearly as much news.
And from what I gather, I could be wrong.
But apparently, some woman that works in the financial aid office at Wake Forest University, well, they dug up her yearbook.
Now, this isn't some governor or even somebody.
I mean, I guess she was some administrator at the university, but they dug up her yearbook, and there was a Confederate flag in the background of one of her pictures.
So there she had to go and grovel.
And oh, I'm so sorry.
Look, you can't do that.
It's a new fad digging up yearbook pictures from decades past and seeing who they can get with it.
Well, it's going to be beyond yearbook photos.
If you ever attended a Confederate rally, if you ever went to Confederate Memorial Day and there's a picture of you doing it, that's going to be used as an excuse to fire you from your job, to make you resign from your position if you're elected.
This is a way to cleanse all white men and women over 50 years old from any position of power and authority in America.
That's why it's being done.
Look, there's been a sea change.
The temperature has gone down.
I mean, they are ramping up anti-white racism, and this is the way they're doing it.
Well, as we said, the delicate sensibilities of the aggrieved minorities become more delicate with each passing day.
And what aggrieved them a year or two ago didn't agree.
What didn't bother them a couple of years ago certainly bothers them now.
And the line's always being redrawn.
And so, yes, I mean, if you go back in the history of any, as you said, Keith, any white person, man, woman, man or woman over 50 years old, there's going to be something in their past.
They said, done, war, said, did, or were that's going to offend somebody.
It's just a matter of finding it.
I mean, there's just no doubt about it because everything offends them now.
Everything.
Well, it's being done with a calculated purpose.
And the purpose is to disenfranchise and disempower white people in America, liberals as well as conservatives.
All right, folks, we'll be right back.
Much more than a news bag when we come back.
Let's hang on and come back to the political sesh pool right after these messages here on the Liberty News Radio Network.
I'd invite Mr. Trump to stop whining and go try to make his case to get votes.
The press has created a rigged system.
They even want to try and rig the election.
Well, I tell you what, it helps in Ohio that we got Democrats in charge of the machines.
And poisoned the mind of so many of our voters.
At the polling booth, where so many cities are corrupt and voter fraud is all too common.
And then they say, oh, there's no voter fraud in our country.
I come from Chicago.
So I want to be honest.
It's not as if it's just Republicans who have monkeyed around with elections in the past.
Sometimes Democrats have to.
You know, whenever people are in power, they have this tendency to try to tilt things in their direction.
There's no voter fraud.
You start whining before the game's even over.
Whenever things are going badly for you and you loosely start blaming somebody else, then you don't have what it takes to be in this job.
Hi, I'm Patty, wife of former Congressman Steve Stockman.
In Congress, Steve sought impeachment of Eric Holder for his corruption of the Justice Department and his fast and furious gun running that caused border agent Brian Talley's death.
Steve called for arrest of Lois Lerner for her contempt of Congress as it investigated her targeting of conservative nonprofit groups.
After four years, four grand juries and millions of tax dollars, Steve Stockman is in prison.
His case involved four checks to nonprofits.
DOJ has one standard for Hillary Clinton, but another for folks like President Trump and my husband.
We've spent all our savings, all Steve's retirement, and much of mine.
Steve Stockman has fought for you and America.
Won't you join me now to fight for Steve?

How do you know your child loves you?
When he calls and he says, Dad, why don't we go fishing?
Just very simple, but it really counts.
Make a song up and they come into our bedroom and say, we made a song and will you listen to us?
Our next year's daughter came to me with tears in her eyes and she said, Daddy, I just thank you for coming home every night when we were growing up.
My son does the nicest things.
When he's playing outside, he'll come in and just give me a hug and run right back outside.
My daughter goes to the same high school that I'm the registrar at.
And I'll go into my office after the bell has rung and there's a note on my desk.
And it'll usually say, Mom, I love you.
I'm thinking about you.
And I think of my boy that we finally got him through graduation.
And he came up to me and said, I made it.
Thanks.
Family.
Isn't it about time?
That's all he said.
And that meant everything to me.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Welcome back.
And on the show, call us on James's Dime at 1-866-986-6397.
Hey, the best part of any broadcast of TPC is the conversation that we have off the air in between the commercial breaks.
The show continues, believe me, during those three-minute breaks, you just can't hear it.
But we're back now.
We're talking about, well, some interesting news items that I've seen this week that caught my attention.
We thought we'd put our commentary on it.
Mrs. Northam, the First Lady of Virginia, in her own little fake racist scandal.
Some administrator at Wake Forest, I'd apologize for your book photo.
That's the new fad.
You know, you can kill your baby, and you don't have to apologize for that, but don't you dare honor your southern ancestors.
Now, that is a crime that you're going to have to pay for, to be sure.
But I'll tell you one thing.
It's one thing we'll never stop doing.
And you know, our Confederate History Month series is coming up in a month in April.
We're going to kick off Confederate History Month.
There are three things that you can bank on that TPC will always deliver.
We will always deliver pro-white commentary.
We will always deliver pro-Southern commentary.
And we will always deliver pro-Christian commentary that we hope will honor our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Let me just say this really quickly.
Isn't it funny now?
Liberal whites are now being punished along with conservative whites.
In other words, wake up, folks.
Smell the coffee.
It's your whiteness that is being attacked, not your liberality or your conservatism.
What happened to Mrs. Northam and also the producers and directors of the Green Book movie is we're not going to have a Me Too movement on race.
We're going to have a to white people screw you movement.
In other words, basically, you're not allowed to do anything except say, I'm sorry, and meekly put your head on the chopping block for them.
And if, you know, if that doesn't wake people up, then there's no hope.
You know, we're going to, it's like T.S. Eliot said in his poem back in the 20s, The Hollow Men, this is the way the world will end, not with a bang, but a whimper.
Well, we're not going to be whimpering over here at the political cesspool.
We hope that more people will follow our lead.
And I just want to say something here because it's on my mind and it's on my heart.
I just want everybody to know, you talk about national treasures, Keith Alexander is it.
And I say this in all sincerity, there's not a man in this movement that I think offers a more trench.
He's giving me the word trench.
No, that wasn't the word I was looking for.
But I mean, Keith has an encyclopedic knowledge that I think is unmatched.
And his ability to recall points in history, historical facts, tie it all together in contemporary commentary.
I just, you know, the political cesspool wouldn't run without Keith.
That's just a fact.
Now, Keith, I'm so honored to have you here with me every Saturday night.
You've been with me for all these years.
This show, you are a huge part of everything that we've done.
And I know you know that.
I know the audience knows that, but sometimes it needs to be mentioned.
And as I sit here and listen to you every week, I mean, even tonight, and it does happen quite often, I just sit back in just amazement at what I'm hearing.
And I appreciate it.
I mean, you've got a lot of time.
I've got a lot, but also, we know who the star is, and the guy that really makes everything, brings it all together is James Edwards.
Well, I'll tell you what, I'm glad somebody on here can do what you do, because I might can run a show, but you definitely had a lot of intellectual health to it.
But here's some more things that we've got.
This one didn't really take off.
I saw it in some of the headlines this week.
And it didn't take off to the extent that I'm sure the person hurling the allegation would have liked.
But it came out this week.
NBCNews.com reported that an ex-campaign aide alleged in a lawsuit that Trump kissed her without consent.
So the aide, her name is Alva Johnson.
These are just the facts.
She's a 43-year-old black woman.
She said that she felt reduced to just another object of Trump's unwanted sexual attention.
So she filed this lawsuit.
Now, this happened three years ago.
And so for whatever reason, it took her three years to file this lawsuit.
It says she was referred to a therapist because Trump leaning in to kiss her, allegedly, and nobody else saw it, of course, and we'll just have to take her word on it.
You know, so traumatized her.
Now, Trump's an older guy, and even I'm old enough to know that a traditional greeting for a woman is to kiss him on the cheek.
But now, of course, you have to ask consent.
And if you're spending the night in love with a young lady, as it were, you have to ask consent, I think, every five minutes to make sure she hasn't changed her mind.
Of course, you can change your mind 40 years after the fact, and she can still nail you to the wall.
But in any event, I saw this, and I'm thinking, you know, this was, you know, we've got this yearbook precedent now that Ralph Northam unintentionally kicked off, and you've got this precedent with Roy Moore that was very effective.
All of these baseless false allegations, and all of these people became, you know, media celebrities.
And the Jussie Smollett thing, he was going to cash in the same way Kaepernick was going to cash in or did cash in on his fake victimhood.
And so now we're seeing another trend here.
And so this woman now, three years after the fact, filing this lawsuit, we don't know if it even happened.
If it did, I don't think it's a big deal at all.
I don't.
But I think it's just another ploy to emasculate men, this whole kissing without consent.
I mean, you have to get, yeah, how can he be a racist and going around kissing black women?
But this whole thing, you have to ask for verbal consent.
There wouldn't be a baby born in this world if a man had to ask for verbal consent to make a move on a woman.
They want you to make a move.
Now, they might rebuff your advances, and you've got to live with that.
But this whole kissing without consent, give me a break, but I'm going to call BS on this one, Keith.
I don't think it happened, and I don't think she's going to get what she hopes for, which is the darling treatment from the press for having filed this lawsuit.
What she's looking for is cold, hard cash, I believe, James.
But again, my sympathy for Trump in this is tempered by the knowledge of how he threw poor Roy Moore under the bus when he was being attacked.
You know, this is to be sure, the media is not puffing this up.
I mean, I thought that they might.
It was in the news for a day or two.
I haven't seen much else about it.
I don't think it's going anywhere.
They certainly didn't puff it up like they did the fake allegations against.
Well, it's probably the Jussie Smollett effect.
You know, if you take a look at a picture of the woman, if Trump was making an amorous advance to her, then he needs an optometrist like a dead man needs a coffin.
Because, I mean, this woman is not attractive in the least.
And the idea that somehow Trump was making a pass at her or an unwanted sexual advance is just absurd.
But see, this is the campaign aide.
And supposedly, she was cheering him on as he was leaving the campaign bus to go give a rally speech in Tampa, Florida.
Now, I'm going to tell you, with any woman that I'm familiar with, I routinely will kiss them on the cheek as a greeting.
I don't think that's rape.
I mean, well, then you're not Donald Trump, and there is not a movement to have you removed from the presidency of the United States, right?
They are desperate for everything now.
And as you said in the last segment, the problem is racism, anti-Semitism, misogyny, all of these so-called no-nos that aren't really crimes or anything else.
These are very elastic concepts.
What was racist today wasn't racist yesterday.
And it's really almost moving at that.
It's moving at warp speed.
And now you're supposed to be embarrassed, for example, if you're the governor of Tennessee, that you're a member of Kappa Alpha fraternity, which was a legitimate conservative fraternity.
And they had at every southern campus, every year in the spring, they had an old South formal in which the girls dressed up in crinoline and hoop skirts and the men dressed up in Confederate officer uniform.
You can remember when that was the case, Keith.
You can remember that time.
I would ask you if you can remember the time when British men used to be masculine.
Here's one last story that I'd like to work in this hour with only a minute remaining.
Megan Markle and Prince Harry have announced that they will raise their baby as gender fluid, and they're going to let their baby determine which gender it wants to be.
So, look, here's Prince Harry.
He could have any woman in the world.
He chose this D-list, mixed-race, social justice.
Former semi-soft porn star.
And then she is, I mean, what is this?
What is this?
Raising your baby to be gender fluid?
You're going to let the baby determine what gender they are?
That's sick.
That's mad.
You want to talk about mentally ill, somebody that needs to be referred to a therapist.
It's any parent that would go about raising their child that way.
Prince Harry obviously does not wear the pants in this family.
This is ridiculous.
This is an embarrassment to the English royalty.
Quite frankly, I think this is going to lead up to a movement to do away with the king and queen of England now, because this just this is worse than anything that Nicholas of Russia did or Louis XVI of France did.
You'd put this up on Nero's level.
Yeah, this is a Nero.
This is a Roman Emperor debauchery type of move.
You know, I think that under Nero, they had gay marriage for the first time.
Well, guess what?
You know, I'm sure that if he were polled on this, Prince Harry would be all for that as well.
Everything that, you know, Prince Harry is the poster child for the decline and fall of the British monarchy.
Well, there you have it, ladies and gentlemen.
My goodness, you know, Keith, we're not normally good at this, and that is working in a handful of news stories in short order because we both got so much to say, God knows.
But we were able to work in quite a few stories there in the last segment and a half.
But the show ain't over yet.
Stay tuned for the third and finally, we're finally getting a handle on this.
We're already doing what we're doing.
The third and final hour, more stories to come, more news and commentary, the likes of which only TPC can deliver.
Stay tuned.
Another hour of the political cesspool is in the can, but don't go away.
