Time Text
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.
James is taking the night off.
Rest and relax with his beautiful wife after a successful 15th anniversary show.
I'm Winston Smith, as I said, and I'm glad to be here.
I'm going to be with you for the next two hours.
And I have two guests, so let's get right into it.
The first guest I'm going to welcome to the Political Festival is a man who's been on the show quite a few times, and it's always good to have him.
I consider him a good friend.
And so I'll just welcome Ken Gibbedon from the Daily Ken.
Ken, are you there?
I am here.
How you doing?
I'm doing very well.
We've got Stephanie somewhere in California listening to us and doing the transcribing so we can have a good conversation.
Cool.
I got to tell you, my voice is a little bit weak tonight.
So if you can't hear me loud and clear, that would be the reason.
But you got to take care of yourself, man.
Do what?
I'm sorry I didn't hear you.
You got to take care of yourself.
Yeah, I do.
You know, I've got no idea what that is, but I've had a problem with my voice basically forever.
So, you know, I just kind of deal with it.
But we'll make a good night.
All right, let's jump right in.
You said you had some news items you wanted to discuss.
Yeah, there's, you know, there's a lot of things going on, Winston.
And one of the items in the news that caught my eye, and I think just about everybody missed it, is in Detroit, Michigan, there is an environmentalist organization that had this idea they would give trees to residents of Detroit.
Free.
Just, you know, just give them to them.
And they can plant them in the front yard, whatever.
But what they discovered is for some reason, the residents in Detroit, most of whom are black, rejected the trees.
They said, we don't want them.
So the environmentalist organization kind of scrambled their brains trying to figure out why it is the black people in Detroit did not want free trees to spruce up the city, make it look a little nicer.
Do you have any idea what excuse they used?
We have to have a good idea of what it is because I've read the article.
Oh, good.
Yeah, because you only get one guess.
The answer is white racism.
Of course, that's always the answer.
Anytime there's a problem in the black neighborhood, you got one reason, and that is white people are doing something wrong or they're not doing something right.
But the excuse that was presented, Winston, by The individual who is spearheading this is that the black population takes offense when white people try to tell them what is best for their community.
And they, this is according to her, not according to me.
Her opinion was that, you know, if white people would just stay out of it, then I guess black people would plant trees.
You know, my opinion is, and I don't know if you've noticed this or not, but it seems to be that white people have this penchant for tidying up their neighborhoods in their houses.
Just something inherent to us.
If you drive into a black neighborhood, you can tell you're in a black neighborhood, even if you don't see any black people.
With that said, you know, I grew up on the east side of Indianapolis.
And the other day I was just driving through a neighborhood that was near where I live, a little bit farther east.
And it basically had gone from a white neighborhood to a black neighborhood, and you could tell because it was run down.
It was just, you know, just a mess.
I don't know what that is.
Maybe it's genetic.
I have no idea.
But white people tend to like to tidy things up, and black people, and there are exceptions, you know that, don't.
But the point of all this is that here's another excuse to blame white people for something that, you know, we just need to stay out of it.
But she's making her case, the individual who headed up this project, she tried to make the case that environmentalists tend to be overwhelmingly white.
She said about 16% of environmentalist organizations staff members are non-white, compared to about 38% of the general population.
Now, what that tells us is 62%, if I'm doing my math correctly, of the general population is white, which means about over 100 million, over a third, over 100 million Americans are not white.
So there's a story beneath the story.
You know what I mean?
There's something going on here that isn't just about trees.
It's not just about tidy neighborhoods, but it's about losing our country to non-white people.
And I got to tell you, I'm not sure that's a good thing because white people constitute the goose that lays the golden egg.
We're the ones who, and I know some people call this racist, but I, you know, I'm not bothered by that.
I would rather be a realist and endure the and suffer the consequences than to avoid the truth.
But the fact of the matter is, these folks in Detroit, Michigan don't mind taking tax-subsidized benefits from the government that are paid for by, by and large, by white taxpayers.
That doesn't bother them a bit.
So I don't think they would mind taking trees from white people.
But what we are seeing is an indication here that our nation is being taken over by non-whites.
Now, by the way, feel free to interrupt me because I'll ramble on forever.
But there are some, there are some other implications we're seeing, Winston.
It's not just that our country is being taken over by whites.
And by the way, this thought comes to mind.
It seems to me, I could be wrong on this, but when I was born back in 1953, the population of the United States, I'll have to Google this to be sure I'm right, but the population of the United States was about 100 million, maybe a little bit more.
So what we're realizing is now there are 100 million non-white people living in this country.
So that's essentially the equivalent of the entire population.
66 years ago, almost 67 years ago when I was born.
So our country truly is being taken over.
So what are your thoughts?
Excuse me.
My thoughts on the country being taken over.
Stephanie says we have music going.
I'll have to answer.
Clinical Festival.
Be right back to the listening ear.
Listening professionals dedicated to hearing you.
Hello, listening here.
Who am I listening to?
Um, Carrie, but I was calling my mom.
Yes, you were, but your mom was so busy, she felt it was important for you to have someone who could completely focus on listening to you and you alone.
So she subscribed to our service.
Go ahead.
I'm listening.
Well, I'm not quite sure where to start.
Well, I can listen to school issues like science projects.
I can listen to boy problems, although that's an extra $3 per call because of the emotional drain on me.
How about we start with how you wish you had made cheerleader?
I didn't try out for cheerleader.
This isn't Mary.
Carrie.
I'm Carrie.
Oh, oh, sorry.
There is no substitute for a loving parent.
And when you really listen, love is what they'll hear.

I believe there will come a time when we are all judged on whether or not we took a stand in defense of all life from the moment of conception until our last natural breath.
As a teenager, I gave my first public speech in my church.
My hands shook, my heart pounded.
I thought to myself, I can't do this, but somehow I did.
And because I wanted to talk about things that were important, I persisted.
I chided my church as a senior in high school for not seeming to care about the not yet born, for looking the other way and for not taking a stand on life.
I will be in earnest.
I will not equivocate and I will not excuse.
I will not retreat an inch and I will be heard.
One thing I promise you, I will always take a stand for life.
As a parent, is receiving a faith-based, character-focused education for your children difficult to find?

For over 40 years, American Heritage School has been educating both hearts and minds, bringing out academic excellence.
This is the school where character and embracing the providence of a living God are fundamental, where students' national test scores average near the 90th percentile.
With American Heritage School's advanced distance education program, distance is no longer an issue.

To be part of the show and have your voice heard around the world, call us at 1-866-986-6397.
And we are talking with Ken Gibbenden, a good friend of mine, a good friend of the show.
Before we went to the break, Ken asked me what I thought was the reason that we're losing our country.
By that, he means why is white culture being lost in this country?
And started the answer, and I will continue that now.
Ken, I believe the primary reason is because we have violated the fifth commandment, which says, honor thy father and thy mother, honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
That means that if we stop honoring our parents, and by that, you know, being a Calvinist, we interpret that to mean your ancestors as well as your immediate mother and father.
We've stopped honoring them.
And as a result, we are losing our country.
Our days upon the land are not going to be very much longer if we continue to allow our heritage to be denigrated and to be insulted and to be wiped out as we see happening every week.
Another reason why we are losing our country is because, you know, sometimes I think white people just like drama.
And, you know, we think that there's some virtue in fighting from a position of disadvantage.
And I'm here to say there is no virtue.
There is no honor in fighting from a position of disadvantage.
And we will do things.
We will give up things.
We will apologize for things for which we had nothing to do.
That's another reason.
But what I'd like to think is that we can reclaim it by just reclaiming what we are.
You know, we are white people and we know how to build things.
When we go away, things deteriorate.
We know how to make things.
We know how to build things.
We know how to keep order.
We know how to behave ourselves.
One man said this, the age of guilt is over.
We will not apologize for our achievements.
Our history cannot be used as a weapon against us.
We are in debt to no one.
Our glorious past is a matter of pride and joy to us.
Whatever we have done in the past only inspires us today for even greater deeds tomorrow.
Those who feel that we have wronged them should be happy they are still alive.
And I think if more white people could realize that and capture it, it would be a big step in reclaiming our country.
You know, our minds have been used against us.
White people are compassionate people.
And unfortunately, that compassion has been corrupted against us.
They've used one of our greatest virtues against us.
And so when certain races claim that we've wronged them, we've offended them.
Well, you know, we don't want to wrong or offend anyone, so we'll take measures to correct it.
Unfortunately, No matter how much you give them in correction for what they say you did, they always want more.
Take reparations, for example, Ken.
If next week we gave a million dollars to every black person who wanted reparations, the so-called leadership and the black community would say, well, that's a good start.
And you can't give them enough because they will take and take and take.
But they will not take trees.
That's true.
And I was reading an article about, I was reading an article about this issue earlier this week.
And I think one person who did a study on that said that she talks to a couple of black women and they related the trees to the 1967 race rebellion in Detroit.
The city began cutting down elm trees in their neighborhoods.
And blacks at that time understood that to be because law enforcement and intelligence agencies could better surveil the neighborhoods from helicopters and other high places after the race rebellion.
The city was cutting down the trees at that time, and the city was sending helicopters over their homes at one point, but that was to spray toxic DDT above the trees.
The government was saying that those trees had Dutch elm disease and were dying anyhow, and they wanted to stop it from spreading.
Of course, yeah, they were spraying DDT and they didn't know back then how dangerous that was.
But, you know, you can, the government, the city government gave them the excuse and they just refused to believe it because they preferred to believe that it was so that they could be spied upon more easily.
You know, it's human nature to see what we want to believe.
The way that I like to say that is we don't believe what we see, but rather we see what we believe.
And when you are inundated constantly, indoctrinated with the lie of white racism, then you're going to see it.
You will see it everywhere.
When you sing the national anthem that's racist, when the president Donald Trump says, make America great again, you will see racism.
It has nothing to do with white racism, but that's what you're going to see.
Now, there is a reason they do that.
There is a concept, a phenomenon called psychologists call the availability heuristic.
And that simply means that we have a proclivity to believe what we hear.
And, you know, the Bible says that we walk by faith, not by sight.
And faith comes by hearing.
So we tend, you know, the Bible says basically that we tend to believe what we hear.
Even if you don't believe the Bible, you can observe that in availability heuristics.
So what we're saying is this whole thing come together, Winston, that the reason they want to shut us up, the reason they want us off of Facebook, off of YouTube, they want to silence us on the internet, is because we are having an impact, because people tend to have a proclivity to believe whatever they hear.
And if they're hearing the truth from us, that is the same people, that's what they're going to believe.
So you have black people living in Detroit, and they're seeing racism everywhere because that's what they've been told.
They're believing what they have heard.
And white people, exact same thing.
We're told over and over again that we are racist.
The truth of the matter is, and I'm absolutely convinced of this, that white people are the least racist of all ethnic groups.
We've talked about this before in the past, but I talk about it a lot.
But the entire planet, I mean, every single person on earth, their lives have been enhanced because of white Western innovations.
If you were to take away every invention that is attributed to white people, we would probably be living in a paleolithic culture.
We would maybe still be living in the woods.
We would, I'm not sure we'd be farming or not.
You know, some of the Indians did farm without white people, so it's possible.
But we have enhanced the lives of everybody.
But that's not what we believe.
That's not what we are hearing.
We are hearing that white people are evil, that we are the oppressors, and that everybody else is the oppressed.
And I wonder sometimes why we believe that.
And the answer again is because, well, that's what we're being told.
And when you hear the same thing over and over and over again, it saturates our minds and it becomes, those thoughts become our thoughts.
So what we see in the black neighborhoods among black people in America today, they're absolutely positively convinced that white people are racist.
But in so doing, they don't realize that they themselves are...
I don't know, Ken, yes, we're going to stay there.
So, folks, we'll be right back.
Institution is our guide.

Brian Hurley is a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.
The heart of the cold air is really going to be coming down as we get into Tuesday and Wednesday.
The coldest air in those lowest temperatures are going to be over the northern tier, as you would expect, upper Midwest, Upper Mississippi Valley, with those temperatures, some areas near zero or below zero.
The House Democrat who's leading the impeachment inquiry into President Trump says he won't let Republicans conduct sham investigations as his committee heads toward public hearings on Wednesday.
House Republicans have released a list of people they want to appear, including Joe Biden's son Hunter, as well as the whistleblower whose concerns about the president's phone call with Ukraine's president shook up Washington.

Hello, this is Wayne Allen Rood, relentless conservative warrior, middle-class warrior, and always Trump warrior.
I have a message for my fellow patriots across America.
President Trump is making America great again.
He's the only president of my lifetime who is keeping his promises, and his biggest promise is to build that wall.
President Trump could only do it with our help.
If Congress won't fund Trump's wall, we will.
President Trump is one man against the world.
And what globalists and socialists around the world want is clear, open borders.
It's time to take a stand.
We either build the wall or it's the end of the greatest nation in world history ever blessed by God.
That's why I founded the Root for the Wall Pack.
63 million Trump voters together will raise the money President Trump needs for the wall.
Anyone who donates $100 or more will get a beautiful commemorative wall brick.
Display it proudly.
Call 844 Root Wall.
That's toll-free.

Authorities in Bangladesh have ordered about half a million people to evacuate ahead of the upcoming Cyclone Bulbul.
The cyclone is expected to make landfall near one of the largest mangrove forests in the world, the Sundarbans, which is home to the endangered Bengal tigers.
A dozen coastal districts are in the storm's path, and seaports are on high alert.
The storm could cause wind speeds of up to 75 miles per hour with higher gusts near the coast.
In Japan, there's an outcry over what women can wear to work.
Activist Yumi Ishikawa has become the face of a social movement in Japan, and her feet, always shod in flat shoes, are not just a fashion statement.
Shoes are an expression of Japan's male chauvinism, she said.
It all comes down to gender equality.
Taking a page from the Me Too movement, Ishikawa and tens of thousands of followers have declared war on high heels.
Their campaign is kutu, which means shoe suffering.

This is a great episode of The Medical Step 2.
I'm Vincent Smith, sitting next to James Edwards.
We're talking with Ken Gibbon about, well, we started off talking about a situation in Detroit.
And you know if something's going on in Detroit, it's going to be either highly entertaining or highly irritating.
So, Ken, earlier you were talking about how people believe what they hear, and they believe what they want to believe, or they hear what I got to get this out.
They hear what they want to hear.
I remember a YouTube video where a white guy who was either very brave or very foolish, but he would see some black walking and he'd say, hey, my neighbor.
And to a person, he said something else.
And he nearly got attacked because he said, you know, the verboten word.
But, yeah, people tend to hear what they want.
Sorry, he said howdy, neighbor, and about got him killed.
That's funny.
Hey, my neighbor.
Yeah, I'm going to have to be careful not to do that.
Maybe I will do it.
I don't know.
But, you know, there are some black people who can see through all of this.
Jesse Wee Peterson, good example.
Mondays, I do a live stream with, say, a black conservative.
Some of them are out there, and there's more of them than we may think.
Now, with that said, we still have to consider what our future in this country and all of Western culture is going to be like.
And those who are paying attention to the election for this year saw the state of Virginia, the way that I like to say it is it fell to the cultural Marxist.
It fell to the economic Marxist.
The state of Virginia fell to the Democrats.
The Democrats took over the House of Representatives in that state.
The Democrats took over the Senate, the state senate.
And my understanding is the governor in Virginia is a Democrat.
They control Virginia.
And the reason is because of the massive influx of aliens.
So Virginia has been invaded by aliens.
And that's what's happening to all of the United States.
So there are conservatives, there are Republicans in Virginia, but the far left only needs 51% to control the state.
And they only need 51% to control the country.
And to me, it's terrifying to think that we are very close to that happening.
But there are some bright spots along the way.
It's kind of like, you know, it's a cloudy day and you see the storm clouds coming over the horizon.
But once in a while, the sun will poke through the overcast sky and you enjoy the sunlight.
But you can see the storm coming and you know it's going to be here shortly.
But one of those rays of sunshine winced in occurred in Kansas City, Missouri.
The city council there decided that they were going to rename one of the boulevards Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.
And people got upset about it.
Now, I've never heard of this happening before, but so many people were so nonplussed by the changing of the name of that boulevard that they put it on the ballot.
Now, here's what's interesting.
Almost 70% of the voters in Kansas City, Missouri, voted to change the name of the boulevard, the street, back to what it was before.
So the way we see this at FoxboardKC.com is nearly 70% of the vote, which came from a low voter turnout, are assigned a change is coming.
Kansas City's council members chose to change the name to Honor King, the celebrated civil rights leader in January, but the move was met with mixed reactions, which led to Tuesday's item on the ballot.
And so they changed the name back to what it was before, Paseo Boulevard.
I think that's how you pronounce it.
But something else that's interesting is that just over 60% of the city's population is considered white.
About 28, 29% is considered black.
Now, assuming that the voters, the people who turned out to vote, represent that demographic, then 70% who supported the name change back to Paseo Boulevard necessarily must have included a significant number of non-white people.
What that tells me is either non-white people didn't vote, or possibly there are some red-pilled non-white people who understand that their life is enhanced by us.
And they don't like change any more than we do.
Now, granted, that's a tiny minority of minorities, but still, they are out there.
But if you've noticed this, Winston, virtually every city in the country, even little towns, it seems like have a street that's named Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.
What we're doing is we are caving in to the demographic shift.
We're tearing down our monuments.
We're demonizing the American flag.
We're demonizing the Pledge to Allegiance, Pledge of Allegiance.
We're demonizing the national anthem, you know, kneeling before football games.
We're tearing down Confederate monuments.
We're demonizing and tearing down monuments of Christopher Columbus.
We're changing Christopher Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples Day.
And when we're changing the streets names, the street names to Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard or whatever, yeah, changing the holiday from celebrating George Washington to celebrating Martin Luther King Jr.
That's another example.
It is a cultural shift that we are allowing to happen to us.
Now, what I'm wondering, Winston, is what can we do to stop this?
What can we do to reverse the tide?
Because the storm is coming.
And it looks like it's going to hit us around 1940 or 2045.
What can be done about it?
Well, we're going to have to adopt the tactics of those who hate us because those tactics are effective and we need to be more effective than they are.
We need to be more committed than they are.
And as I was reading up on this change in the street name, I thought, well, now maybe blacks in Kansas City know what it's like to have a well-loved memorial removed for no good reason.
Although the city did have a good reason for removing, for changing their name back, it's been known as the Paseo for centuries, well, maybe a century, but for a very long time.
And it was part of it was part of Kansas City history.
And the people who wanted to change, they're not trying to get rid of some kind of memorial to Martin Luther King Jr.
They suggested, you know, build something new, build a new memorial for that guy.
And they don't want that.
You know, they want their way to be preserved.
But there are a lot of Kansas Cityans, Kansas Cityites, who wanted the name to go back to the Pasteo because it's from their childhood.
And when, you know, the opposition against this was being led by the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, which was founded in part by Martin Luther King Jr.
And every time the Southern Christian Leadership Conference gets involved in something, my mind immediately goes back to one of their leaders, a man named Peter Johnson, Reverend Peter Johnson.
They're all reverend, you know.
Reverend Peter Johnson.
He said, we've allowed white America to escape the guilt of King's assassination.
Now, these guys are reverends, right?
They're supposed to be Christian reverends.
And to me, any reverend that wants to keep you in guilt is not a Christian.
That's a Satanist, because that's what Satan specializes in.
Satan specializes in guilt.
And that's what the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, as exposed by one of their own, Reverend Peter Johnson, he said, we need to keep white people in guilt over this.
You know, white people who had nothing to do with it.
There was only one white person who had something to do with it, and that was Janzer O'Reilly.
But when, of course, The black people who oppose this name change or this name reversion, I should say.
We're not changing the name, we're just reverting it back to what it was.
Their only charge against it was that it's racist to do so.
Folks stay with us.
We'll be right back.

Kosher, certified.
Put the two words together to get co-certified, which is spelled with an SEH instead of just SH.
It's the right way to spell this, the German way, and it made it easier to trademark.
Now, did I tell you that the letters SCH still make the shh sound?
As in all those American food producers saying, shh, let's keep it really quiet that our product is kosher certified.
Think about it.
Nearly one century of kosher certification, and hardly anyone outside Exclusive Observers knows that most packaged food and kitchen products are literally certified by religious intermediaries.
Well, because you, consumer, are indirectly paying for this, the Coach Certified app is here to make kosher certification awareness an inclusive matter for people of all faiths and identities.
And it even boasts a unique database of products not kosher certified.
We call that NKC.
Start naming it.
It's fun.
NKC, not kosher certified.
Now, to confuse our audience even more, we put a question mark at the end of our name.
And that really cinched our trademark approval.
It relates to the website where you can begin your new shopping behavior, thekosherquestion.com.

I'm very happy to be here, staying in for James Edwards.
And this hour was talking with Tim Gibbon from the Daily Ken.
Kim, why don't you tell folks how they can find out more about what you do?
What I do, well, my website, dailyken.com with two N's.
What I do is, well, that's a good question.
I'm not sure what I do.
When I see a story that I think is important or of interest, I put it on my website.
And necessarily, that offends a lot of people because when you tell the truth, and people belong to the, I call it the cultural Marxism cult, they become very offended because you say things that disagree with their point of view.
But so it is.
Now, there's a good reason to do that.
You know, Winston, we were talking about a moment ago how it is that we can have an impact on the destruction of our nation, of our culture.
We need to understand the tremendous value of standing alone if necessary.
If one person speaks up, it is amazing.
It is proven by psychological test.
If just one person speaks up, it has an amazing influence on others.
That is why the far left doesn't want any of us saying anything on the internet.
There's a famous psychology, psychological test.
You've probably heard of this.
In fact, I've got a video on my website right now that discusses this.
But a psychologist had his students look at a chart that had three lines on it.
Real simple chart, one, two, three lines.
Each line was a different length.
And he told the students, I want you to choose when I ask you which line is longest, I want you to choose the wrong, the middle length line.
Choose the wrong one.
Well, then they had another student come in.
He had no idea what was going on.
So the teacher asked the class, which line is longest, and every single one of them chose the wrong one.
So it was the one that was medium length.
And what they discovered is the target student who didn't know what was going on was inclined to agree with everyone else, even though he could see it was wrong.
And that goes back to the biblical philosophy that faith comes by hearing, not by sight.
So even though he could see that was the wrong answer, he still stated the wrong answer.
Now here's the point.
They adjusted the test just a little bit.
Rather than having the entire class answer wrong, they had one student say the right answer.
So when the subject student came in and they heard that there was just one person who told the truth, that had a tremendous impact on the effect of their thinking.
And they did this trial over and over and over again.
And if just one person gets on the internet and tells the truth, we have a tremendous impact.
And again, that has been proven by psychological test.
Speaking of psychological tests, have you, Winston, ever had your DNA checked for your ancestry?
No, but my oldest daughter did.
And I know where you're going with this.
There is not a single drop, not a single strand of sub-Saharan African or any African DNA in my family.
We are pretty much 100% European Celtic stock.
Well, you know, my son took one of those DNA tests and he got the same results.
He was 100% European.
But here's the glitch.
When I took the test, 23andMe, I discovered that according to them, I was 0.4% Nigerian.
That would have to go back to at least seven generations.
So somewhere back there, according to the test results, there's a black person, probably a slave, is what I was thinking.
But as I look over my family history, you know, I don't see any evidence of that.
Nobody talks about it.
So I wonder, is it conceivably possible?
The 23andMe when they do these genealogy tests, maybe they're wrong.
And then I wondered, well, if they're wrong, maybe they're wrong on purpose.
So I did a little bit of checking, and here's what I discovered.
According to scientificamerican.com, and this is a quote, there have been some bizarre cases of failure, speaking of DNA tests, such as the company that failed to identify the sample DNA as coming not from a human, but from a dog.
So somebody sent in DNA, probably saliva of their dog.
You would think these people would catch that, but they said, no, 100% human.
So the story goes on like this.
And it says, for deeper family roots, these tests do not really tell you where your ancestors came from.
This is Scientific American.
They say where DNA like yours can be found on Earth today by inference, we are to assume that significant proportions of our deep family came from those places.
But he goes on to say that humankind is fascinatingly closely related.
And DNA will tell you little about your culture, history, and, and here's the key word, your identity.
Now, with that said, there were two cases where Inside Edition, the news program, they tested these companies.
They had two sets of identical triplets who submitted their DNA to these companies.
And in both cases, all three, or really all six, because there were two sets of three, they all had different results.
So for example, the story says, this is Inside Edition.
The story says Nicole, who is one of the triplets, was 11% French, but Erica was 22.3%.
And their sister, Jacqueline, was in the middle at 18%.
Well, that's a spread of 11% or 100% of 11%.
So I'm thinking, geez, if they could be wrong by that much between identical twins, that 0.4% that they can sign to me, probably wrong as well.
So the conclusion is this.
By the way, do you happen to know the name of the CEO of 23andMe?
And something, a funny last name.
Wojinsky.
It's Polish.
And Wojinsky.
Do you happen to know the CEO of YouTube?
I believe that would be her sister.
Susan Wojinsky.
So the sisters, or the CEOs rather, of 23andMe and YouTube are sisters.
Now, you know, I kind of sense there's a conspiracy theory brewing here, but you really can't prove, for a matter of fact, the sisters have an agenda, but it certainly does seem like it.
So the way that I concluded my story on my website is we wonder what they discussed when their family gathers to celebrate Anika each year.
I'm assuming they do it each year.
So is it conceivably possible?
And again, I can't prove that, Winston, but is it conceivably possible that 23andMe and some of these other websites, testing websites, DNA testing websites, are intentionally fudging the numbers to convince white people that we are not white?
Is that possible?
Certainly possible.
I remember when I forget the man's name, but he was called a white supremacist.
He went on some TV program to have his DNA results revealed.
And the testing company said that he had a fair amount of sub-Saharan African DNA in his lineage.
And of course, the audience went crazy.
They howled, they laughed, they cheered.
And the man was somewhat taken aback by it, as he should have been.
But then after that, people started asking, could these testing companies be doing this on purpose?
And I remember reading one report where one person who did the testing said, yeah, we do it all the time.
We throw in a little black DNA to try to dig into white supremacists.
So I'm sure it goes on.
I'm sure there are just some stupid mistakes being made.
I mean, the people performing these tests, they are not scientists per se.
They're employees, you know, and they're taught by people how to take the tube and how to put it in here and how to put the thing in the centrifuge and all that.
So, you know, they don't know how that works.
They're just worker bees.
So it's possible that there's some shady dealing going on.
And it's possible that people are just making stupid mistakes.
But the bottom line is, can you really trust these things anymore?
Or could you trust them out?
You cannot.
To quote Scientific Americans.
Are we out of time?
We got to go, Kim.
Thanks for joining me tonight.
I'll be.
Thanks so much, Winston.
Have a good night.
Another hour.
Thank you.
