You're listening to the Liberty News Radio Network, and this is the political cesspool.
This is our day, Keith.
Welcome to TPC, everybody.
It's Saturday evening.
James Edwards, Keith Alexander, on this February the 1st.
Keith, we're already a month into the year.
How do we do it?
And we're going to have a lot of fun tonight.
Always a happy day when we're with our audience.
And we love that every Saturday night for now, we're in our sweet 16th year now, Keith.
Our little baby's grown up, going to the prom this year, 16 years old.
And I do like that song.
Sam keeps wanting to break back in.
Let's just do it.
Yeah, well, or else play you're 16, you're beautiful in your mind.
Well, anyway, so we have got Kevin McDonald and Tom Kaczynski coming up this evening.
Now, what are we going to talk about with Kevin McDonald and Tom Kaczynski?
Well, the better question is, what aren't we going to talk about?
We're going to be talking with them about the impeachment, the Iowa caucuses, Bernie, foreign policy, trade policy.
We're going to have Tom present a case for and against Donald Trump, another libel lawsuit, news about Nathan Bedford Forrest, and so much more.
We have got a busy show tonight.
Two great guests, but a wide assortment of topics.
I think we're going to hit on something for everybody.
But the first thing I want to tell you about, this is an interesting story.
So I joke around sometimes.
Every time I walk into the room, I can always walk into that room or store or wherever I may be with my shoulders squared because I know at any given location, I'm the only person who's been denounced by the President of the United States, Hillary Clinton, the United States Congress, and pretty much every media outlet in this country and several more around the world.
But it's interesting.
That's how the sociopaths, the sellouts, quite frankly, the traders treat us.
That's who's in control of our institutions here in America.
But there are good people in positions of power in Europe who love us.
And we've worked with quite a number of elected officials in different European governing bodies over our run.
I mean, we could name them.
Philip the Winner comes to mind is just one example.
Hannah Van der Merch.
Nick Griffin, who's no longer there, but was at one time.
And there are many others behind the scenes.
You know, the winner, when he came to Memphis, he actually came to Memphis to meet us, went out of his way to come see and a diplomat, yes.
And we took Philip all over Memphis for a nice tour.
Well, anyway, there is a person I want to tell you about that reached out this week who asked for our help in getting word out about some of the things he's been doing as a member of parliament in Croatia.
His name is Zelchko Glasnovic.
And listen to the background of this guy, Keith.
First of all, he is Major General Zelchko Glasnovic, and he is now currently, he's a retired general, now currently a member of parliament in Croatia.
Croatia.
So listen to this background.
He was born in Zagreb in 1954.
He fought in the Croatian War for Independence.
He was a military commanding officer, severely wounded around the heart in battle.
He spent time in the hospital, but escaped from the hospital so he could return to the front lines.
Now, that's a guy you can win with, Keith.
That's the type of people that we attract.
He was known as being a very strict military commander, demanding a high level of discipline.
In 1994, he became a commanding officer for the first brigade of the Croatian Defense Council.
He was retired by the president of Croatia in 2000.
He was not politically active until 2015 when he was elected into the Croatian parliament, where he has served ever since.
So this is a guy that was a military hero for his nation, then and now, currently sitting as a member of parliament there in Croatia.
He reached out to us this week to ask if he would post an article, or rather a transcript of a short speech he delivered to that governing body, and we did.
And what were your thoughts on it, Keith?
Break it down.
Well, I think it was a great article.
It's, you know, cutting through the cant, cutting through political correctness.
This guy doesn't have any time for political correctness.
He's going to tell you what's on his mind.
And he sees very clearly who the enemies of the Croatian people are.
And he names them, shames them, and, you know, does exactly what you would expect a person that's attracted to our show to say under the circumstances.
So listen to this.
It doesn't stop there.
So you say, okay, well, he was a general.
Well, we've got lesbian generals.
We've got all kinds of generals here in America.
That doesn't necessarily mean he's somebody worthy of our audience's attention.
You say, well, he's an elected official.
Well, you know, so.
Yeah, right.
So is Chuck Schuman and Nancy Pelosi.
But we're Steve Cohen.
We do have this speech to go by, and we have some other things to go by.
Listen to this.
So he was an honorary guest.
This is, we're talking about a retired major general, current member of parliament, Zelchko Glasnovic.
He was recently a guest of the German, what they call extreme right-wing Congress.
He was a guest of the National Democratic Party of Germany, the NPD.
Now, when asked about the appearance, listen to his answer.
He confirmed for the media that NPD members fought alongside him during the Croatian War for Independence and the Bosnian War.
He stated during the 1990s war that they, the NPD members, fought for the values of the West, Christianity, moral integrity, working habits, and identity.
He added that he shared their worldview, particularly patriotism, nation, religion, and shared European values.
When asked if he was a neo-Nazi, which is how the NPD is usually referred to, he answered this way.
And we've seen this so many times.
People who associate with us, who talk to us, who come on the show, oh, are you this?
Are you that?
You associated with Edwards and Alexander the political assessment.
Well, listen to how he responded when asked if he was a neo-Nazi, because that's how this party gets dismissed as being.
He said that his views are much closer to theirs than to the, quote, communists who are under a mask of cosmopolitanism and democracy, end quote.
Keith, that is our kind of guy.
And isn't it interesting how we find one another across all the miles?
And he left, he actually called me today.
I missed the call.
He left a very gracious voicemail.
We're going to have this man on the show, and I can't wait to present him to this audience.
Well, he's the type of person that our audience needs to know is out there and in a position of authority in Europe.
The Europeans are a lot better off than Americans at this time in history.
It's no exaggeration to say that they have people that will speak up for the historic Croatian nation or the German nation or whatever or the Hungarian nation.
You can't find those people in elected office in America, unfortunately.
Everybody that's in elected office in America is a cuck.
And that's, you know, that's an unfortunate truth, but, you know, it's time that somebody told the emperor he had no clothes.
And I guess that is a role that has been assigned to us, James.
Well, and listen, I would rather have one General Glasnovik than 100 United States senators.
And I mean it.
And what do we got here on the campaign trail now?
Joe Biden, just in the last few days, is saying, let's be clear, transgender equality is the civil rights issue of our time.
There's no room for compromise when it comes to basic human rights.
Well, if you believe that, Joe, wouldn't that have been true 50 years ago when you first went into office?
Why are we only hearing about it now when the media has made it acceptable for you to pretend to believe that?
I'll take Glasnovic over you, jackass.
We'll be right back.
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?

My brother and two other boys were the ones that got in the child with her.
And she was drunk.
The road that goes to her house is like really windy.
And she was taking that road at 80 to 100 miles per hour.
And heading to the road there was her door flung open.
She ran out across the street to get away from it.
Then the other three boys were trapped in it.
And the car exploded.
And then when my mom found out about it, she called me at work.
I don't care what you have to do.
Just get up here to the hospital.
I parked my car and I went inside.
They took us back to this little room when Mom told me that Jake had been killed.
I lost it.
The other people excluded like, well, you can drink, but just be careful when you drink, you know?
So I don't want anything to do with it because it took my brother away from me.
A public service message from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Abby Johnson was once director of a Planned Parenthood clinic in Bryan, Texas.
After a moral crisis, she quit, and now she campaigns against what she once endorsed.
They implement abortion quotas in all of their clinics.
What do you mean, quotas?
You have to perform a certain number of abortions every month.
One of the reasons that I left?
Yes.
It's in your budget, right there on the line item.
One of the reasons I left Planned Parenthood was because in a budget meeting, I was told to double that abortion quota.
And for me, as someone who had spoken to the media and had said, you know, we're about reducing the number of abortions.
We're about, you know, prevention, all these other services, I was shocked.
So you actually worked at a Planned Parenthood.
Give us some sense of the relative number of abortions.
Okay.
Abortions Planned Parenthood provides over 330,000 abortions a year.
They are the largest single abortion provider in our country.
It's time to jump back into the political cesspool to be part of the show and have your voice heard around the world.
Call us at 1-866-986-6397.
Well, anyway, we wanted to take that opening segment to introduce you to an impressive European leader who is standing strong for our shared values.
I guess I should say introduce you to a certain extent.
We're going to try to have him on the show next week.
This is retired General Zelchko Glasnovic, now a member of parliament in Croatia and doing the job that American elected officials won't do.
That's for sure.
And that's like I say, I mean, I would rather have one guy like this than any number of our so-called own, like the Biden.
And I gave you that quote, Biden recently violated.
Like the typical Republicans.
Well, of course, of course.
All the way up to the president, frankly.
But, I mean, here you have a major general, a war hero, a member of parliament, compared to U.S. media and leaders.
I'll take this guy every day.
You know, there was a time when, you know, I think this is a guy that you could say would be, you know, the kind of a prototype to be a national hero.
He served in war.
He later went on to ascend to elected office, but he did so without playing the game.
I mean, he is doing so while he's standing up for his people and not being cowed by the press to play their game.
He hasn't traveled to Israel to kiss the whiting lawyer.
We'll ask.
No, I don't think so.
But speaking of Croatia, it made me think of the Croatian basketball team.
Now, there is a time when I guess sports figures could be heroes as well.
You think of the American hockey team in the 1980s.
I mean, you know, that college team that beat the Russians.
And not to say that the Russians were bad guys or anything.
Well, I guess they were back then, and certainly then more than now.
But I'm just saying, you know, that was a time where you had this team of hockey students beat the greatest, college students beat the greatest hockey team that had ever been assembled.
There's been movies made about it.
Kurt Russell played the coach in the movie adaptation.
But so maybe something like that.
But I'll tell you.
But even that's a stretch.
You have to admit.
Real heroes are war heroes.
People put their life on the line.
Okay, that's fine.
Okay, but I'm making a point here.
And you're right.
But go back to the Olympics then.
Go back to the Olympians.
I mean, it is possible that a sports hero could be a national treasure.
Like Bruce Jenner.
No, I'm talking about the original Olympics.
Anyway, no, the original Olympics, not what it's become.
But there is something I got to say.
I debated whether or not to bring this up, but the media has forced my hand.
And I'll preface what I'm about to say by saying this.
It is tragic, of course, for anyone to die in a helicopter crash.
And it's especially sad that his daughter was also on board.
But I'm going to step up right here and now and take the dissenting point of view and say that Kobe Bryant would not be a national hero of any healthy society.
The media coverage of his death, which I think is certainly newsworthy because he really was a good basketball player, but that is all he was.
And I think the unexpected nature of his death, you know, certainly prompts this to be newsworthy.
But the coverage of his death has been over the top.
I mean, he has instantly attained the level of a Nelson Mandela.
Or a Horatio Nelson.
In terms of the adulation that is being poured on this guy, this guy, and listen, I'm not a hypocrite.
I don't think you have to go to college.
I don't think a lot of people should go to college.
I think, in fact, you should really go to the college.
In fact, most of the people that are in Division I sports shouldn't be in college except at the south end of a northbound broom.
Well, this guy was a high school dropout and semi-literate.
He was a basketball player and by all accounts, very much a jerk in his life.
In fact, the last picture ever taken of Kobe Bryant, which presumably was the day before his death, was the day before, or the week before, within the last few days, was of him snubbing this 12-year-old little white boy who said, Kobe, you're my hero.
Can I have a picture?
And he wouldn't give him a picture.
And it wasn't like there was a throng of people around.
It was just him and this kid.
It was at his own private gym.
And so the last picture of him taken alive was him denying this little boy, you know, two seconds of his time.
It's like the mean Joe Green commercial where he gives him the football jersey.
What he would be doing if Kobe would be smothering him with his jersey or something.
Well, I mean, this guy, I mean, they did it with Michael Jackson.
They did it with Martin Luther King.
All of a sudden, one of these guys dies and they become some sort of a deity.
A demigod.
They do.
And I think, yes, that's right.
I mean, if Kobe Bryant was known for one thing in his life other than basketball, and I'll give him that.
He was a good basketball player.
It was for a rape allegation.
Now, you know my position on me too.
I do not think he raped that girl in Colorado.
I think that it got a little bit out of hand and it went and all of that notwithstanding, he was not some great human being or some great humanitarian.
They're making him out to be the model father, the model husband, the model citizen.
Yeah, the model citizen.
He was not any of that.
And that is why I have to bring it up.
It's not so much of who he was or who he wasn't.
He was a basketball player.
That's all he was.
Well, they're trying to get rid of Justin.
It's the media's coverage of it, Keith, that is so disgusting to me.
Well, they're also circulating a petition to have his likeness replace Jerry West on the official NBA logo.
Yeah, he's already entered into sainthood.
I mean, again, I'm sad that his helicopter crashed.
I don't wish death on anybody.
And I'll say this to be true.
I am sad that that happened.
I am especially sad it happened to his daughter and to everyone else that was on board.
There were nine people on board that helicopter.
But you know what the left does?
And I'm talking about even the left.
There's a 501c3 left-wing group that when one of our people die, you know, Gordon Baum?
Yeah.
Gordon Baum was a longtime friend of ours.
A good man.
A good man.
Truly a good father.
Good father and husband and family man.
And a longtime friend of ours here at TPC.
Well, when he died, this 501c3 left-wing group put up a headline saying, Rot in hell, Gordon Baum.
And so that's how the left celebrates, you know, when a truly good man dies.
I don't celebrate the death of Kobe Bryant.
I'm sad that that happened.
But I'm not going to join in this foolish lionization of a so-called hero that has feet of clay.
No, he wasn't a hero.
He wasn't, by all accounts, he was not a good person in spite of what you've seen the media put out this week.
And that's another thing.
You've got all of these NBA players who are, again, semi-literate, and LeBron James among them.
LeBron James.
And sexual predators very often.
LeBron James put out this post, and so many other of these current NBA stars did the same, you know, eulogizing Kobe Bryant with any number of misspellings.
You know, people say slaughter.
No, I got to say this.
They say I'm the leader of the Klan, or the New York Times or the Detroit News said that, and the courts upheld that I'm the leader of the Klan and all of that.
I'm not the leader of the Klan, but I am a grammar Nazi.
And this guy butchers the English language like nothing else.
These people can't be aware of that.
This guy should be an embarrassment to the Los Angeles Lakers and to anyone that would be a supporter of his as being functionally illiterate.
Well, and Michael Jordan, the same way.
I've seen some stuff Michael Jordan's attempted to write.
It is embarrassing.
They can't spell.
They can't use punctuation.
They have no grammar, syntax.
All of that goes out the window.
They don't have none of that.
Fifth grade comprehension of grammar or proper English usage.
And I have seen all the media this week reading these tweets and Instagram posts with all of the misspellings, all of the poor grammar, all of the lack of punctuation.
Never a word said about it.
No, they read it verbatim and then they treat it like it's solid gold.
I mean, they will say, oh, this is so profound, so eloquent.
I mean, that is the last two adjectives I would use to describe any of the things I've seen these NBA players write this week.
You would think it's Lincoln's Gettysburg address or something.
You know, the lack of ability and proficiency with the English language is sadly on display here, and it is telling you exactly what's happened to America over the past 70 years.
You know, I don't think, you know, Babe Ruth didn't embarrass his teachers by speaking in non-sequiturs like Kobe has.
Well, look at all of them.
All of them are doing it.
How are we already on a break?
Man, it's going by too fast.
I got to say one more thing about this.
And it's really not so much about Kobe's life or death.
It's really about the coverage of it all and the way he's being lionized and being put up as a true American hero while real American heroes, their legacies are being diminished.
Like Nathan Bedford falls.
We'll talk about that when we come back.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
USA Radio News with Wendy King.
Russia has halted visa-free tourism for Chinese nationals and stopped issuing them with work visas because of the deadly coronavirus outbreak.
Eight cases have been reported in the U.S., the latest in Massachusetts.
Dr. Larry Madoff is with the Bureau of Infectious Disease and Laboratory Sciences.
The man recently returned from Wuhan, China, and sought medical care soon after his return to Massachusetts.
He has been isolated since that time and will continue to remain isolated until cleared by public health officials.
His few close contacts have been identified and are being monitored for any signs or symptoms.
New York City officials are testing for what may be the first case of the disease there.
Beginning on Sunday, the U.S. will direct flights from China to seven major airports where passengers can be screened.
This is USA Radio News.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said he has cut ties with the U.S. and Israel as Arabs rejected the Trump administration's Middle East peace plan.
The administration's plan sets aside sections of land for a Palestinian state, but current illegal settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories would then be annexed to the state of Israel.
The plan was developed through U.S.-Israeli negotiation without any input from the Palestinians.
Abbas announced he would cut ties at an emergency meeting of Arab League foreign ministers in Cairo after he and the leaders of Iran and Turkey rejected the plan and said it was one-sided.
The Trump administration on Friday expanded its travel ban to include restricting visas for an additional six countries.
The proclamation bans people from Eritrea, Kyrgyzstan, Myanmar, and Nigeria from receiving immigrant visas and suspends the visa lottery for people from Sudan and Tanzania.
You're listening to USA Radio News.
Welcome back.
To get on the show, call us on James's Dine at 1-866-986-6397.
Had to do it, folks.
Had to do something about all of this coverage.
The way the coverage, look, it was newsworthy that the third all-time leading scorer in NBA history died.
Not this wall-to-wall coverage.
Well, you know, died in a helicopter crash.
I mean, that isn't at 40 years old.
That is unusual, 41 years old.
That is unusual.
That is newsworthy, but it's not the fact that it's newsworthy.
It is, you're talking wall-to-war 24-7 for a week.
And not just that, but this, you know, presenting him as a model citizen, a model father, model husband, a good guy.
He wasn't any of that by any objective standard of measurement.
Well, if he's a model gentleman for America, then America needs to mind its manners.
That's for sure.
Well, what one thing that, you know, he had four daughters.
He probably loved his kids.
I mean, he was taking them to ball games and things like that.
But, I mean, if he has the best we have to offer, we're falling short of the mark, folks.
Now, there was one thing that I found absolutely hilarious.
There was an ABC news editor who was suspended this week for getting a fact wrong about the Kobe Bryant tragedy.
And I think the person in question, the reporter, the so-called journalist in question, said that there was more than one of Kobe's daughters on board the flight when, in fact, there was only one.
And again, that is the saddest thing to me as a father that that little girl died like that.
But anyway, ABC News suspended this guy and they said, you know, it went against our journalistic integrity.
We have, well, what journalistic integrity.
We have, you know, we want to get every fact straight and we want to make sure we're not, you know, offering disinformation.
All of these people do every day.
Every story is lie, lie, lie.
What in the hell are you talking about?
They would, as we used to say down south, they'd rather climb on the roof to tell a lie than stand on the ground and tell the truth.
I mean, I can just offer my own personal insights of any countless stories we've been involved in over the years.
One in which, you know, we did that thing at Nathan Bedford Forrest Park a couple of years ago.
We had 500 people turn out.
We had a hand in turning those people out.
Eddie Miller was photographed.
It's become an iconic photograph.
It has, but to illustrate every story except the one that he was involved in.
I have seen that story used in articles around the world to illustrate articles about the Ku Klux Klan.
All these people do is lie they're suspending this guy.
I mean, obviously, just to make it out like they care about facts and all of that.
I mean, the whole thing, me losing my case, and they fly Jesse Jackson in to give a free speech award to the guy who libeled me.
They don't give a damn about honesty or danger.
They're celebrating the death of the First Amendment.
But hey, you mentioned something we were having lunch this week, Keith, is that they're putting up people who are not heroes and presenting them as heroes.
And the real heroes, what's happening to them?
And give us an example of a real hero.
The perfect example would be Nathan Bedford Forrest.
And why?
Why is he a hero?
Because he was a very accomplished soldier and a native military genius whose tactics are still studied in military colleges to this day.
But his statue is removed while the city of Memphis now is naming streets after a member of the barcodes, not the original barcodes that had a number one record or a very, you know, soul finger, but some guy that came on and was basically a cover band of the barcodes later on.
This is who our new America chooses to lionize.
And people like Nathan Bedford Forrest, who are genuine heroes, worthy of statues, worthy of public praise, they're thrown into the ash heap of history.
Now, we have some news about Nathan Bedford Forrest.
And for so many reasons, he was a hero.
Not the least of which being, and we talk about this every Confederate History Month series, not the least of which being that he was born into poverty, but became a self-made millionaire.
And then, as a self-made millionaire, donated the vast majority of his fortune to aid the Confederate cause, the cause of his countrymen.
Then being exempt from having to serve, he enlisted as a private of the lowest rank.
That would be like Fred Smith of FedEx enlisting as a private to go off to war.
It would never happen today in your 14th century.
And then he turns out to be one of the probably the premier original genius, instinctive military genius to come out of the war, according to none other than Robert E. Lee.
And that was without any formal military training.
So he was illiterate, but he became a self-made millionaire.
He wasn't trained as a soldier, but he became the greatest military tactician in the history of mobile warfare.
Well, he definitely was one of the top generals, not only of the Confederacy, but of the entire Civil War.
And he apparently is expendable.
He is a terrible person because he did what was legal at the time and owned slaves and sold slaves, just like Thomas Jefferson, just like George Washington.
I don't care about that, just like they still do in non-white nations, like they still do today.
And listen to what's going on with Nathan Bedford Forrest.
Gene Andrews is going to be on the show.
Gene Andrews is the caretaker of the Forrest Boyhood Home in Chapel Hill, Tennessee.
He's the former commander of the Tennessee Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans.
Gene is going to be on next week to talk about this.
It just so happened, Keith, we just so happened to get a letter from our fan in Pensacola, Florida, who wrote me this week at random about something Gene Andrews had just told me a few days ago.
Gene's going to be on next week to tell you all the details.
So I'm just going to give you the generals here.
But listen to this.
The generals, no complaints.
This is what's going on.
I got to work in before the music starts.
James and Keith, knowing how much y'all care about General Forrest, I'm writing to advise y'all of an upcoming event.
The Sons of Confederate Veterans has agreed to provide a final resting place for General Forrest, his wife, and his equestrian monument.
The SCV already has the equestrian statue and the Jefferson Davis statue, those two statues that the city of Memphis stole under a violation of state law.
They are being repaired because, of course, they were damaged.
The SCV, the Forrest family, and the city of Memphis have negotiated an agreement.
The general and his wife will be disinterred.
They're going to dig up General Forrest and his wife in a few weeks.
The general will lie in state at Chapel Hill, his boyhood home.
The general will then lie in state at Elm Springs.
That is the SCV headquarters near Columbia, Tennessee.
It's not a location.
That's actually the name of the given to their particular building there.
There is an Elm Springs, Tennessee.
You don't want to go there.
You want to go to Elm Springs in Columbia, Tennessee, the site of the SCV.
Well, what you're going to is the headquarters of the SCV, Sons of Confederate Veterans.
And they're going to be, they're going to lie in state there, and then they're going to be interred there.
I have the dates.
I have the time.
We're going to wait until Gene Andrews can come on to give you those details next week because he is a former commander of the Tennessee SUV.
Forrest, his equestrian statue, will again adorn his grave.
Another statue honoring his men will also be erected.
And this men include my great-grandfather.
Well, and one of mine, Keith.
Absolutely.
Well, great-great, in fact.
But this event will be bigger than the CSS Huntley event you attended.
Well, I hope it is.
I hope it is.
And this writer, this listener writes, looking forward to seeing y'all at this occasion.
So bottom line is this, folks.
General Nathan Bedford Forrest and his wife will be disinterred from Memphis.
They will lie in state at two separate locations later this spring, and then they will be reinterred with the monument, which will have been repaired, and a new monument at the SCV headquarters near Columbia, Tennessee.
Gene Andrews will be on next week to give you all the who, what, where, when, and why.
I think a story like this should be repeated twice.
So we're going to give you a little bit here.
We're going to give you a lot more information next.
And let's, again, don't miss the forest for the trees.
What is happening?
Another pun.
Yeah, another pun.
Yeah, right.
Think about this.
Where are these monument removals occurring?
They're occurring in urban cities like Memphis that have a majority minority population.
The minority population is flexing its political muscles, in effect, and saying, white people, you no longer run this place.
We run this place, so we determine whose statue is in there.
Now, they should have a lesson in federalism, which is that the state government trumps another pun, you know, city government.
But the city government, I mean, the state government is run by cowardly, phony, conservative Republicans who are unwilling to step forward and assert their right to have the laws of the state of Tennessee enforced.
And the judges who were called upon to rule on this are likewise cowards.
They're not going to come forward and tell, you know, enforce law properly.
They're going to cleave to political correctness like it's the holy word of God.
They will not step out of the straitjacket they've fashioned for themselves with political correctness.
So consequently, it doesn't matter what laws you have.
It doesn't matter what authority you have.
There is a lack of will on the part of the leadership, the elite leadership in our government to do what is right.
Well, the bottom line is this, and we're going to cover this in greater detail next week with Gene Andrews.
You, ladies and gentlemen, will have a chance to go and pay respects for a true hero and go to the third funeral, as it were, of Nathan Bedford Forrest later this spring.
We're going to give you all the details about that next week with the former commander of the SCV here in Tennessee, Gene Andrews.
And I'll be there, Keith.
Be there and be square.
All right, we'll be right back.

Kosher, certified.
Put the two words together to get Kosh certified, which is spelled with an SCH 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 meming 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.
Welcome back.

Big news, I think, about the Forrest reburial, and that is something you will have the chance to attend.
And folks, let me tell you, one of the greatest moments of my life, one of the most memorable moments of my life, was going to the funeral of the crew of the CSS Hunley submarine in Charleston, South Carolina.
You will have the opportunity to go to the, well, I mean, this is the third time he will have been buried or reburied, but unfortunately, and we'll get all the dates and times and details from Gene Andrews next week.
It's Gene's job to tell you the details.
We just want to make mention of it this week, and a story this big needs to be covered twice.
And you know what?
It shows exactly what I was pointing out in earlier shows about a certain map of the United States that I saw.
The liberal part of America is less than 90% of the landmass, probably less than 98%.
You know, less than 2% of the landmass is probably occupied by leftists.
It's all urban centers.
So we hope and trust that the remains of General Forrest and his wife and his equestrian statue will be safe in the rural setting where he's going to be reburied.
And hopefully we can.
Wish we can take over these cities again and make them part of the United States rather than rogue city-states, which is what they are now.
Well, it's a shame that he has, I don't mean to be crude because this is one of my personal heroes.
There was a guy that got into trouble, a high school coach, and they asked him if you could have dinner with anybody alive or dead, who would you have dinner with?
And he said, Al Fitler.
And well, you can imagine what happened to him.
But I was talking about this.
I actually heard about this from Sam Bushman.
I was a guest of Sam Bushman's show earlier this week.
Sam asked me the same question.
And I said, you know, other than Jesus Christ, Nathan Bedford Forrest would be who that's my personal hero, being a Tennessean, being a Memphian.
And so, yes, it's a shame that he has to be dug up to be crude.
But if it was my father, and in some ways he is a national hero or ancestor to all of us in the South.
If it was independent-minded people everywhere.
But you don't want somebody you care about, somebody you admire, somebody you respect, somebody you love, to rest at a place like he is in now.
This is not the Memphis of the 1960s.
It's certainly not the Memphis of the 1860s.
And if it was one of my relatives, one of my blood relatives, I wouldn't want him being in a place where he would be disrespected and defamed and desecrated as he is right now.
And, you know, newsflash, people, Memphis is not a great place anymore.
Okay.
Look at the crime rates.
Look at the illegitimacy rate.
Look at the literacy rate.
It's not the type of place that ought to be celebrated.
It's the type of place that needs to be rehabilitated and corrected.
Well, and because of all of that, I don't think it's cucking out by the Forrest family to agree.
And the Forrest family had the right of refusal.
They could either veto this deal or agree to it.
I don't think it's cucking out by the Forrest family to say that we want our loved one to be in a place where he will not be desecrated.
Where he'll be appreciated.
Yeah, absolutely.
I hate to see him go.
I hate to see him leave Memphis.
He spent most of his life in Memphis.
He died in Memphis.
He was buried in Memphis.
He had a very successful raid on Memphis in April of 1864.
It's just a shame that true heroes are outcasts in their home cities now because those home cities have been taken over by strangers.
I don't mean to laugh, Keith.
I'm not laughing at what you said.
I'm laughing at one of our listeners who just write, what are they going to use the land for?
Talking about the land, which how many acres is that park where he's buried at?
Well, it's at least an acre.
I know that.
I think it's more than well, and it's right in the middle of the medical complex in Memphis, and it's been coveted by the University of Tennessee College of Medicine and other groups that want it.
And now it's owned by a guy named Van Turner, who is bought it for about $3.
Yeah, that's billions of dollars.
$100, yeah, a multi-million dollar piece of land.
And it's now he owns it.
Wouldn't it be interesting if he just decided, hey, I'm going to cash this in myself.
Yeah, that's what he should do.
I mean, you know, stick it to the city of Memphis.
But our listener asked, what are they going to use it for now?
A shooting gallery?
Well, hey, and that's what Memphis is, basically, particularly the expressways around Memphis.
They're always having that.
They have to post policemen just about at every exit on the expressway now because, I mean, I've seen that.
Well, they're waiting for us to go to the studio every Saturday.
I mean, it's just incredible.
The indigenous people of Memphis are shooting one another as they drive around the expressway because they have poor impulse control and suffer from road rage.
Well, yeah, 10 acres, I think, is what it is.
So says Rich Hamblin, who also said, and he's quite right.
I have dinner with Christ or supper with Christ.
That's the way we say it in the South.
Every time I have communion.
So thank you, Rich, for reminding us of that fact.
Well, hey, we have been off to a blistering start in 2020, if I say so myself.
Our broadcasting year here at TPC thus far has been nothing short of spectacular.
We will give you more details next week with Gene Andrews about the forest thing.
But so far this year, we have entertained or guested or had guested as guests on the show, Jared Taylor, Ramsey Paul, Jason Kuna, Michael Hill, Paul Fromm, Brad Griffin, Pastor Brett McAtee, Tom Kaczynski, who will be making his second appearance of the year tonight, Mark Weber, David Duke, Sonny Thomas, Rick Tyler, father of 19 kids.
And he was on for a great, I went, I had a date last night.
I had a very, very, very special date last night during the third hour, and Sam Bushman and Rick Tyler covered it expertly.
If you missed last week's third hour, I enjoyed it thoroughly.
So go back and listen to it for yourself.
But I took my daughter to the Daddy Daughter Dance.
We posted a picture of that on the website at thepolitical setup.org just yesterday.
Check it out.
And man, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
But Sam and Rick sure covered it well tonight.
Dr. Kevin McDonald and Tom Kaczynski.
Great stories, too.
I mean, the year has seemingly supplied us with any number of stories to cover each week.
Iran, that whole thing, that seems like a year ago now.
The Virginia Gun Rally, the March for Life, so many other things.
Of course, TPC.
The coronavirus.
Yeah, we're going to talk about that in the next segment.
We've still got so much more to talk about tonight.
We're going to talk about the latest on the impeachment, the coronavirus.
We're going to talk about Kushner's Peace Plan.
Kushner's Peace Plan.
We're going to talk about the U.S. MCA, which is basically NAFTA, slightly modified.
But TPC continues to stand alone as a voice in the mainstream media as one who will welcome to the broadcast on a weekly basis high-quality guests whose messages would be hushed up or otherwise distorted by the rest of the media.
And we've got a great month coming up, by the way, Keith.
Not next week.
Next week, we hope to have General Glasnovic on the show.
We talked about him at the opening of tonight's broadcast, but in a couple of weeks, it's going to be the February 15th show.
Oh, I forgot it's Black History Month.
You better get to some.
Oh, yeah, right.
Yeah, let's get out the party horns and the 15th, though, which is two weeks from tonight, we're going to have a ladies' night show because it's going to be the day after Valentine's Day.
We're going to have all of our favorite ladies.
It's going to be nothing but ladies on the show that night.
We're going to be talking about healthy relationships, the proper role of a husband and a wife.
Well, let me try to guess who that will be.
It will be Courtney.
It will be Lacey Lynn.
It will be Virginia Abernathy.
Who else are we?
Well, we're going to have Janice Hamblin.
Yeah, Janice, of course.
A couple of surprises as well, Keith.
You may be a surprise.
All right.
We have six women to choose from.
Anyway, no, I'm just kidding.
We're thankful for the women that are out there supportive and doing good work.
And they're more than happy.
Danny, too.
As a matter of fact, thank you.
You had to repeat what you heard in your headset from Sam.
Yes, I will go ahead and let the cat out of the bag.
Leading that parade will be my very own wife.
And she said hello a few times if she happens to be coming by the radio station while we're on or whatever.
But she will be on that night.
And anyway, so that night, that's coming up in two weeks.
We're going to be talking about, like I said, healthy roles, healthy relationships, men, women, that whole thing.
Increasing the white birth rate.
Now, we're going to increase it.
It can't be done without the ladies.
That's right.
You can't do it without them, can you?
No, you can't.
That's why we shouldn't be sending them into war and into office cubicles.
And anyway.
I'm turning out turgid tracks on gender theory.
We're going to talk about all that that night.
That's going to be, well, that's a little teaser, a little preview.
That'll be something we talk about that night.
With healthy women, I love women, and I've always had good relationships with women.
I know a lot of people out there are bitter towards women, but women just need a strong man, and they'll oftentimes fall in line.
And anyway, we've got some great women coming up, and so that'll be two weeks from tonight.
So it's been a great year so far.
We've got stuff to look forward to every week.
Speaking of women, yeah.
Our listener came up with a great picture for Lawn.
Yes, that's right.
We won't mention the card that Don, our listener in Pensacola, Florida, sent in, but we got a good laugh out of it, Don.
So we thank you for that.
Anyway, what else do we want to talk about?
I talked about having the bell of the ball, as Sam Bushman put it, a hot start to 2020.
Well, we only have a minute left.
There is another story I wanted to get to this hour.
We'll do it anyway.
I don't have time.
It's not worthy of a one-second shoehorn.
So I will say this: you know, we survive quarter to quarter here on this program.
And we don't want to be morbid.
And I don't think in 16 years, we're now in our 16th year.
Our 16th anniversary will be obviously in October of this year.
So we're now, you know, in between 15 and 16.
We talk about living quarter to quarter with regards to our finances.
And, you know, it's always quarter to quarter.
And so we don't want to be morbid here, but we had a listener in California who very generously put us in his will.
And we hope that he lives for decades more.
We hope that he outlives us, in fact.
But folks, a bequest would be something you could do to help us continue to work even after your eternal reward is given.
