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.
Well, I'm ready.
I'm willing.
And I'm in ball.
We're rocking roll all night.
I'm ready.
I'm willing.
And I'm in ball.
We're rocking roll all night.
I'm all ready, baby.
We're going to rock.
We're going to roll until the broad tonight.
Because I'm ready.
And I'm able.
I'm willing and I'm amazed.
So you better come and go with me.
That's going to be our theme song for tonight, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome to the show.
What a year it has been so far.
I'm your host, James Edwards, joined by Keith Alexander this Saturday evening, January the 16th.
And thanks to Fat Zalmano for getting the party started tonight.
What we're going to be doing this evening is welcoming back to the program our good friends, Dr. Kevin McDonald and Sam Dixon, to help us see current events with forward-thinking clarity.
And then later in the show, we're going to revisit a classic appearance that Pat Buchanan made on this program during which we asked him, would America survived 2025?
Are we witnessing the suicide of a superpower?
Sam Dixon is going to touch on that very question in the second hour as well.
And then we'll revisit the oldie but goodie with Pat with brand new commentary from Keith Alexander in light of the current and developing situation.
So that's what's on deck.
That's who's on tap tonight, Saturday, January the 16th.
Now, I received a phone call this week from the New York Times asking me to comment on the recent unpleasantness.
And you know me, ladies and gentlemen, we've been covered by everybody over the years.
I don't typically do interviews, but this was Serge Kovaleski, and I've worked with Serge a couple of times, and he's always done me right.
And so I've done two interviews with Serge, both for the New York Times.
Both actually came out as fair as you could expect a piece to be in the media in this day and age.
Well, anyway, in thinking about what I wanted to share with the New York Times, I'll now share it with you, and we'll see what happened.
But with regard the current narrative that Trump incited an insurrection, now that is absolutely malicious.
He did not do that.
He did not do that.
If you read what he said from Washington that day and you look at it through a certain lens, if you're out to destroy Trump, you would try to spin it, that that's what he did.
If you are in favor of the truth, whether you like Trump or not, you couldn't say that he told those people to go in and storm the Capitol and disrupt Congress and all of that.
So, of course, that is this kind of campaign rhetoric that we always hear.
Speaking of Pat Buchanan, he was pitchfork pat and the Buchanan brigades were going to take Washington with their like peasants with pitchforks.
That was the thing back then in those campaigns.
Now, with regard to what happened, as I said last week, and by the way, certainly more video footage and things have come to light since we were on the air last Saturday.
There were some people there who absolutely did commit crimes.
But I'll say now what I said last week, I wouldn't have encouraged it, nor would I have participated in it, but I do understand it.
I understand why it happened, and you can understand it without also coming to the conclusion that it was a good idea.
It was an ill-advised and counterproductive action contrary to the stated goals of the protesters.
But what they saw was all last year, radical leftists engaging in looting, arson, and vandalism since May, only to be rewarded with policy concessions and financial gain.
Now, you can imagine how one might come to the conclusion that if lawless behavior worked for some, perhaps it might work for all.
Again, you would think that if you didn't know the situation as we know it.
But there's two types of people who were there.
There were people there with malevolent intent.
There were people who were there that were curious observers.
Certainly we saw the photos of the grandma with the American flag and the fanny pack.
She's not a terrorist, okay?
She wasn't engaging in some sort of sedition.
And by the way, the people who entered into the Capitol were a fraction of 1% of the total people there.
So, of course, the double standard is egregious.
And the double standard with regards to law enforcement and how they're pursuing this.
The FBI, every alphabet soup organization in the country is going after these people, hammer and tong.
But rhetorically, there's a double standard too.
As we mentioned last week on the show, Nancy Pelosi wrote a letter of praise, praising the dissidents in Hong Kong after they stormed their capital.
It was beautiful to see, wrote R. Nancy.
Now, the Weather Underground, of course, if you want to go back to the 70s, they actually bombed the Capitol building.
Almost all of them escaped punishment and went on to become elected officials.
And in the case of Bill Ayers, Obama's advisor and speechwriter.
And the leader of that particular organization at the time, the one that actually brought the bombing material to the Capitol, was one Susan Rosenberg, who was one pardoned by Bill Clinton during his presidential term.
And secondly, now has a top job with Black Lives Matter.
So this tells you what the double standard is.
And because of the double standard, James, I would add this to what you said.
Protest, peaceful civil rights type era protest will not work for our side.
Why?
Because it will not be treated by the national media in the same way that leftist protests will be.
Because of that, we just don't need to engage in it.
The only time that peaceful protest, civil rights type demonstrations work is when the establishment is 100% behind you, as they were in the civil rights movement and in all these other rights movements that have plagued American society ever since the 1950s.
There's been a steady goal following the same blueprint established in the civil rights era.
But you notice that when we try to do it, people on the right, you get a totally different narrative.
So don't fall for it.
Basically, what you're doing is you're just making ammunition for the other side.
What we need to do is, you know, what was it Napoleon said?
When your enemy is digging himself in a hole, don't get in his way.
Keith, that's another thing.
Listen, folks, you've got to stay tuned for the incomparable Sam Dixon in the second hour.
He's going to be talking about that and why it is counterproductive for us to try to hasten the job of the guard.
Well, they do it.
Historically speaking, they're going to implode the American economy, and there's going to be a lot of unhappy campers on the left.
And the further we are from that action, the fewer fingerprints we have on any of that, the better it is.
Now, yeah, you're right.
I mean, the difference between the protesters today and what we saw in the 60s and on forward through last summer is that they had the federal government, the courts, and the media on their side, and we have none.
But with regards to the allegations of voter fraud, now everybody's going after anyone who says that this isn't, this is a question that is still unsettled.
Unprecedented allegations of voter problem.
The president made them the sitting president.
140 members of Congress from the GOP, 14 senators, 19 states signed on to a Supreme Court complaint.
So yes, when those figures, those figures we are taught to believe in in school, all say these things, people do tend to believe it.
At least half the electorate did.
And I assumed and still frankly do that there was some fraud, something that took place.
I always questioned whether or not it was enough to actually turn all the electrons.
We wanted Congress to be able to present that evidence, but of course, because of what happened, they used that as a convenient excuse to fall on their swords, as the Republicans are always want to do.
Well, look, let's make it as simple as we can.
10 million votes were taken from Trump and given to Biden.
That's a total of 20 million votes.
20 million votes difference.
That is substantial voter fraud by anybody's measure.
All right, ladies and gentlemen, we will be right back with the one and only Kevin McDonald.
Have we realized the assault against our lives, our liberties, our faith?
To defeat this assault, Christians and all people of goodwill should have strategies to prevail in our faith and principles, which are simple.
No need for a complex formula.
One goal, one aim.
A strategy like the heroic Christians of the past.
We win, they lose.
Nothing less.

Ladies and gentlemen, before we bring on our first of two esteemed guests this evening, I just want to wrap up a couple of thoughts from the previous segment.
Firstly, of course, there was no plan.
There was no planned coup or insurrection, because how do you have that with a bunch of unarmed people?
Now, what they did, of course, guaranteed that the electoral votes would be confirmed.
So they did do that.
But other than that, the theme as a result of their actions this year is going to be the empire strikes back.
That's going to be what's happening and what we can look forward to after four years of Trump.
But with regard to the New York Times inquiry that I received this week, they will sometimes ask you, how do you like to be presented in the story?
How would you like to be described?
And I said, well, of course, when I had a short-lived stint on CNN as a commentator, they always introduced me as a conservative talk radio host, but I doubt you'll be able to get away with calling me that now.
But the interesting thing about that is, of course, the reason I was brought on to CNN even in those times, and I've said this before, but it should be repeated, was because I was known as being a man who would deliver a dissenting point of view on certain taboo issues regarding race and things of that nature.
My opinion has never changed, but certainly the way that I am presented and the way that we are presented as a collective has.
It has gone from conservative talking about these issues to all of the libelous terms, white supremacists, white extremists, et cetera, et cetera.
But in any event, we welcome now to the program back for the first time this year.
And coincidentally, I guess you could say the last show of the Trump era, Dr. Kevin McDonald, former professor of psychology at California State University, Long Beach, the author of several books, all of which you should read, including Cultural Insurrections and his latest individualism and the Western liberal tradition.
Kevin, great to have you tonight.
It's great to be here, James, as always.
Well, and as always, it is great to have you.
So, wow, you look at this, Kevin.
You surveyed the landscape since last Wednesday.
What do you see?
What do you make of it?
We covered this for three hours pretty exhaustively last week, but now the dust has had a little more time to settle.
What are your biggest takeaways and points that you'd like to have the audience consider this evening?
Well, it's scary.
You know, the Biden-Harris administration and certainly very mainstream Democrats have talked about hate speech laws that would have teeth in them.
It could be that such laws would not pass Mustard Supreme Court, but they've also talked about packing the court.
And there's a very, very, there's a lot of opinions in the legal community that such restrictions are fine and they're compatible with the First Amendment.
You know, these law, these professors at law schools have been churning out this kind of stuff for years.
And so, you know, if this happens, I have no doubt that it would be upheld at some point, especially if they could pack the court.
And they've said they would do that.
They seem to have no interest in the sort of traditional forms of American democracy.
They want to add states.
They want to have an amendment to abolish the Electoral College.
And I really do think they really want a police state.
They want completely clamped down.
You show, my websites would be shut down, I think, in their ideal world.
And we already see that with Twitter and everything.
So, yeah, I think it's a very ominous situation in the country right now.
Kevin Keith Alexander here.
One thing is for certain, as a result of the election, which apparently is going to stand all of this QAnon stuff where Mighty Mouse or Underdog or Batman or somebody is going to come in and say the day at the end, I think it's just a bunch of hoo-ha.
So we're going to have a one-party state.
And if they get away with rigging an election now, why would they stop?
They'll continue to rig elections.
It looks like we've got a one-party state for the foreseeable future.
Do you disagree with that?
I totally agree with that.
I wrote an article in October Observer saying that the whole game here is to have total domination, that they would dominate the political system.
We would not be able, there would be, even mainstream Republicans would not be able to win another election.
The fact is that Trump's election was an absolute shock to the system.
And ever since then, their basic motto is never again that such a person, the outsider spotting these populist ideas about immigration, about free trade, about foreign wars and all that, that cannot happen again.
And they pulled out all the stops.
And I really do believe that they stole the election.
And now they are attempting, they will attempt, as soon as they're in power, they will attempt to establish complete domination.
And as you say, if you can cheat once, you can cheat again.
And they will do that.
They will make it easier to do that.
If you have Democrat-elected officials, that was really the key to it, like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and so on.
And then you got these traitors in Georgia.
So, yeah, that's really what happened.
And I do worry.
I mean, I think that there's a point at which a lot of Americans will be very, very angry, you know, that there has to be a sort of decline in trust in the American political system, that democracy is a sham.
And it has been a sham for a long time.
You think about it.
I mean, the huge money coming from certain people, especially with very strong ideological beliefs, that we're seeing that that's going to happen again and again.
The funding of the left is almost, you know, there's no end to it.
And Kevin, let me say this.
Why, you know, from our vantage point, we wonder what is all it to do about because, you know, the Trump administration, the Trump presidency of four years, can be summed up by the title of that famous Elvis Presley song, Too Much Conversation, Not Enough Action.
Basically in terms of, you know, he would sound off on populist themes, on nationalist themes, things like that, that basically were thrilling for us to hear for the first time as conservative Americans.
But when you look at his legislative record, you know, criminal justice reform, a tax bill, things like this, there's nothing that George W. Bush couldn't have done.
And I wonder why did they react so extremely to somebody that basically was more of the same when it came down to final analysis.
That's a good question.
I think it was because he was so much charisma and his rhetoric just shocked people.
I mean, going off on immigration, saying that, you know, Paris isn't Paris anymore.
Brussels isn't Brussels anymore.
What, that's just a shot over the bar of these people.
They just hate that, the very idea that that would anything like that could happen.
And with all these comparisons of Trump to Hitler, and, you know, in the final weeks when he had those rallies and you saw all that incredible enthusiasm, those huge crowds, that just terrifies them.
They can think of only one thing when they see that.
They think of 1930s Germany and they think of a very powerful orator who had the ability to just hold a crowd in the palm of his hand.
That's great.
It's just terrified.
Yeah, it was a great question and a great answer.
And I think it was the threat, perhaps even the specter of a threat that Trump posed to them more than the actual substance that he was able to manifest in his four years.
But it certainly shook them to see the grassroots.
Well, what it showed was not only how popular Trump was, but in the converse, how unpopular they were in their ideas.
Well, it was how popular Trump's ideas were.
And his ideas, by and large, the ideas that he campaigned on are a lot of overlap with our ideas.
And it shows that our ideas are our winning ideas.
The only thing was you needed someone who could take it from theory to practice.
And of course, we didn't quite get that the last four years.
I'm sure we'll be pondering the effects of the Trump administration for years and years to come.
And now as we enter into what promises to be a very dark period in American history.
But we will continue this conversation with the one-to-one, Dr. Kenneth McDonald, former professor of psychology, Cal State University office, right after this.

You're listening to Liberty News Radio, USA Radio News with Tim Berg.
Up to 25,000 National Guard troops are heading to Washington, D.C. ahead of President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration on Wednesday.
A guard spokesman saying their mission will be to support federal law enforcement and protect the nation's capital.
The Secret Service is in charge of security preparations.
Reaction still coming in to President-elect Joe Biden's coronavirus stimulus plan that he unveiled on Thursday night.
The plan calls for an increase in the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour and also sending money to state and local governments that were affected by the coronavirus pandemic.
Regarding all this extra spending, Job Creator CEO Alfredo Ortiz reminds everyone.
So they're not worried about how they're going to pay for it because they just think we can keep printing money and there's going to be no impact.

Federal prosecutors walk back the allegation of a plot to kill lawmakers during the mob attack on the U.S. Capitol.
That announcement coming from acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, Michael Sherwin.
That announcement seemed to contradict statements made by federal prosecutors in Arizona who said Thursday that rioters wanted to capture and assassinate elected officials.
The oldest U.S. living Marine has passed away.
The oldest living U.S. Marine, Dorothy Schmidt Cole, has died.
Her daughter and only child confirmed her mother's death at the age of 107 in North Carolina.
The Charlotte Observer reports Cole enlisted as one of the earliest female Marine reservists following the bombing of Pearl Harbor after she was deemed too short for the Navy.
She learned to fly an airplane at just 4'11 and persuaded the Marine Corps to let her be a pilot.
She enlisted in July of 1943.

All right, back with Kevin McDonald here tonight.
The first of two of the absolute best we could present you with this evening.
Kevin and Sam, you don't beat them.
You can only hope to match them.
And we're thankful to have them on this evening, especially now with everything being so volatile and people needing voices of reason and voices of authority.
That's what we've got tonight.
Question in for you, Kevin.
We have, of course, lived under a soft totalitarianism for many, many years, many decades, really, in this country now.
That soft totalitarianism is rapidly hardening.
And we're seeing that in many different ways with regards to how the FBI is going after, aggressively prosecuting these people with felony crimes.
Who just attended, didn't do anything other than attend.
Apparently, attendance is the media is going after those who attended and getting them fired from their jobs.
people who just attended the rally but didn't enter in the Capitol.
Anybody who entered in the Capitol, whether they had malevolent intentions or if they were just wandering through not going any better because, of course, the doors were open.
The police weren't necessarily trying to stop them from some of the footage I've seen.
So all of that's happening.
You have increasing number of reports, Kevin, of kids ratting to law enforcement if their parents were there even in attendance and people losing their jobs.
I saw today, Kevin, if you can believe it.
Now, we know about how difficult it is for an organization like American Renaissance or V-DARE, our friends Jared Taylor and Peter Brimlow, to put on a conference.
Senator Josh Hawley had his contract canceled to have an event at a Lowe's property.
Now Josh Hawley is receiving the same kind of treatment that dissidents have been receiving.
And of course, now they have one-upped even again from white supremacist to terrorist.
There was an article in the Washington Post wondering whether or not V-DARE was a domestic terror organization.
Peter Brimlow's responded to that on Twitter.
The question for you was from the audience, did you think totalitarianism would come this quickly?
Well, no, I guess not.
I did not.
I was worried about it, though, if Biden-Harris got in, because I've seen these ideas very mainstream in the Democratic Party.
And I realized that you can't invite even a conservative like, say, Ann Colt or Charles Murray, the libertarian.
You can't invite them to colleges anymore.
There'll be a riot.
And they won't invite them anymore because the deans and everybody are just terrified of what could happen.
They don't believe in free speech.
That's just almost a mantra.
They antifa.
And they don't believe in talking with you, in discussing things, and getting a different point of view.
They just want to crack heads and they want to shut you down.
And we see this talk about deprogramming Trump voters and re-education camps and things like that.
Who's ever heard of that in America?
Well, that's critical theory.
Yeah, Kevin.
That's just right out of critical, out of cultural Marxism.
Critical theory says don't debate the other side.
Never concede that they've made a good argument.
You just have nothing but withering scorn for the other side.
And that's what we're seeing put into practice now.
Yeah, we see that, that is that there's no need for these people to have rigorous intellectual arguments anymore.
They've lost the arguments.
And so the only thing they can do is shut at them.
They've lost the argument on race.
They don't want anybody to talk about this.
They just want to be able to throw a label out of this is racist.
This is evil.
And, you know, I really think that we Westerners, not us, but so many of us Westerners, the whole thing about the social glue of Western societies is moral communities.
We're concerned about our reputation.
We don't want other people to think we're bad person.
And so we conform.
It's not like a kinship-based society like Saudi Arabia or something like that.
Our social glue is being in a community where we have a good reputation.
I'm a good person.
And what these people are doing, they're saying, people, you and I and Keith, everybody, we're evil.
We're not just wrong.
And they're not going to debate about you right or wrong.
They're going to say, you're evil.
You can't debate it.
And that's the end of the story.
And so many Westerners just fall into that.
They just, they don't want to be shamed.
You know, I remember when I was harassed back at my job at the university, it was difficult because I want to have a good reputation.
I want to be liked.
I always had been liked.
And all of a sudden, everybody hates me.
They won't talk to me.
And they won't go out to lunch or anything, anything with me.
When did that change?
Look, Kevin, this is Keith again.
When did that change?
Because I know when you started out in the academy and when you were a young man, there was this veneer of polite debate that was the standard, particularly in academia.
People like William F. Buckley and Gore Vidal, if they even raised their voice to one another, it was a major event.
Everybody was very decorous and very proper and whatnot.
And suddenly it's just evolved into, you know, like a cage of orangutans howling at each other.
Exactly.
I mean, I think it was a gradual process.
I think that free speech was sort of taken as the norm.
Although I remember, you know, you go to faculty parties in the 1980s and you just didn't say anything positive about Ronald Reagan.
Okay, I mean, that would just be put you on the outside of their little world.
And so if you wanted to, you know, have friends in that kind of community, that's what you did.
And I didn't, you know, put, I didn't, you know, disrespect Donald Donald Reagan because I was just, you know, I voted for him.
I was a fan at the time.
But, you know, at the same time, I didn't, you know, start, you know, opposing him around or saying anything bad about him or saying anything good about him around my faculty friends.
I mean, you just don't do that because, you know, I think you're right.
It probably started in the 80s.
And Reagan was the first great shock to their sensibilities.
They never thought somebody like Reagan could win and then win in this incredible landslide, 49 states to one, in his second term.
And they made sure through voter fraud that that wasn't going to happen with Trump.
Yeah.
I further believe that.
They saw that Trump won.
I think it was a fair election in 2016.
And they said never again.
And I think that, you know, the polls were all in favor of Biden and all that.
But then they could see these results coming in.
And they say, hey, hold it here.
This can't happen.
And they stopped accounting and they went to plan B.
And here's what we have.
And the media backed them.
I mean, this really shows you the power of the media in this whole thing.
You know, that they from the beginning of this thing, they said, you know, this is just false.
It's just no basis for this.
That there's no basis for anyone to think that there was any cheating at all.
It's outrageous.
Well, see, look, Kevin, I don't think they did this on the fly.
I think this was planned long in advance.
That's why they picked somebody like Joe Biden, who actually has all the charisma of a Pismo clam or something like this.
Nobody wants fight.
And what I say is that this was plan B, that he was favored.
And if they saw the returns coming in as they expected, landslide for Biden, based on the polls, they would have just let it go.
But when it started going in Trump's favor, they just, you know, well, it just cannot happen.
And then, of course, they had a plan from the beginning.
Hold on one second, Keith.
Keith has brought this up repeatedly over the course of the election campaign.
It was how the mail-in balloting could have, the unprecedented amount of mail-in ballots could have facilitated this.
And the thing is, the press and the courts suppressed the allegations.
I say again, if you've got the sitting president of the United States, 140 different members of Congress, 14 senators in 19 states all saying election fraud, I would have liked to have seen Congress fleshed this out, fleshed this out and proved to us one way or the other decisively whether there was or wasn't enough fraud to do this, but they weren't allowed to do it because they took the excuse of unrest to follow their sword and abandon.
And of course, the unrest that took place last Wednesday or on the 6th had nothing to do.
It's a completely separate issue with whether there was or was not election fraud.
And let me say this too, Kevin.
All of this election fraud was based upon modifications made in election laws to accommodate advocates of blacks back in the 60s with the Voting Rights Act and whatnot.
They said it's systemic racism to expect these people to get up on a certain day, election day, between 8 and 7 in the evening with a picture ID and vote.
We've got to have mail-in votes.
We've got to have this expanded early voting period and stuff like this.
And if you came out against it, you were called a racist.
So the Republicans didn't oppose it, and now it's come back to Biden.
Kevin, hang on one second, my friends.
Sorry for getting so much air there the last few seconds.
We've all got a lot to say, obviously, but we want to turn it to you, our guest, to give you the floor.
You're the guest, after all.
We'll be right back with you, my friends.
Yeah, this is David in engineering This is your wife in Suburbia.
Oh, hi, Ann.
What's up?
How's the robot coming?
Well, he doesn't exactly respond to requests yet, but...
Well, I know how frustrating that can be.
You do.
Oh, yeah.
David.
Well, I must not have enough memory, allocated.
Uh-huh.
Sorry.
You know, your son said mama today.
Really?
Uh-huh.
Well, we'll have to have that sound changed to dada.
Well, you could reprogram it yourself, you know.
I know.
Hey, why don't we do it over lunch today?
Oh, you really are brilliant.
Thanks.
You want me to bring the robot?
David.
He can order pasta in 11 languages.
Only if he pays for his own lunch.
Okay.
Oh, don't forget to bring Chip.
I still wish we hadn't named him that.
Why?
It beats general defaults.
Oh.
Family, isn't it about time?
Do you know that a baby processes information three times faster than an adult?
An adult what?
Engineer.
Funny, funny.
I'll see you in there.
I can't wait.
From the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
I have a question.
Can a nation conceived in liberty carry its head high if it denies protection to the youngest and most vulnerable of its citizens?
Can a country founded on God-given rights continue to thrive without understanding that life is a precious gift from our Creator?
I believe that great nations and great civilizations spring from a people who have a moral compass.
I don't think a civilization can long endure that does not have respect for all human life, born and not yet done.
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.

Well, we're back with the great Kevin McDonald.
Be sure to check out and support his work at theOccidentalObserver.net.
T-O-O, theocidentalobserver.net.
Well, Kevin, we were talking about a lot of, I guess, interesting threads at the last segment.
By all means, they'll take away the floor and share with us your thoughts and response.
Well, no, I agree that the election was stolen.
I think that they had a plan, a backup plan.
I mean, Biden was way ahead.
I know the people on the left expected a Biden landslide, and they were extremely disappointed.
That was the big message right after the, like on Wednesday after the election, was, oh, what happened to our landslide?
They expected that.
But then it didn't happen.
And I think they, you know, fudged the votes in various ways.
They shut it down and didn't let Republican observers in there.
They dumped ballots.
They did everything imaginable, basically, different things in different places.
And when you have the media on your side and they can make it sound like you're an absolute nutcase if you think this, you know, that's a big weapon.
The fact is, you know, you can say that it was stolen or not.
The fact is that the media had a huge role in this election.
I mean, searches for, say, Breitbart, if you search for Biden, you would never get a conservative website, even a moderately conservative.
You know, you're going to get the New York Times, MSNBC, and all that kind of stuff.
You're never going to hear a bad word about Biden.
Biden, that scandal with Hunter Biden, never a word.
Even though there was the hard drive, the testimony from his former business partners, emails, all this evidence, nothing.
And it's just completely, you know, despite that, despite that, it was.
And that's very important, Kevin.
Let me just tell you.
Kevin, that's so important.
I don't want this to pass without comment.
I spoke with my mechanic this week about this.
And he said, well, what are you talking about?
He said, I keep up with the news.
I've never heard anything in the news about all of this.
Of course he didn't because he was tuned into ABC, NBC, and CBS.
Well, and listen to this, Kevin.
So you had AOC, AOC this week says she, you know, she wants to work on legislation to reign in our media.
Now, that would normally be something we would be all for, except she means it in the exact opposite of the way that I should be.
How more reigned in can we be, John?
What she's talking about is what Kevin's saying.
Even the few outlets that there are that offers, you know, we joke a lot.
They love diversity, but they certainly don't like any diversity of opinion.
What few outlets there are that offer a view contrary to the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN Axis.
You know, she wants to go after those.
She wants to go after your Breitbarts and your whomever and really have a sort of like a truth and reconciliation tribunal.
And we see it now.
The noose is really tightening with regards to all of this because I was mentioning, obviously, earlier in the program how from the mid-2000s, I would be introduced on CNN as a conservative talk radio host.
And over just the last 15 years, that's morphed into from conservative to white supremacist to now apparently domestic terrorists, except they're not just talking about dissidents anymore like me and you and Keith, Kevin, and Sam and the others who appear on this program.
They're talking about any of the 75 million who voted for the still sitting president of the United States.
Exactly.
I think they would like to know exactly who voted for Trump and they would want to get them fired from their jobs and just thrown out of civil society.
You can't open a checking account.
You can't go on the internet.
I mean, they want that.
They want a sort of Nuremberg thing.
And God forbid you actually work for Trump like Kelly McInene or they say there's a lot of, you know, all these former Trump officials.
That's why a lot of them are bailing out towards the end.
They don't want to be parned with this because it's going to affect their whole future employment.
Bill Barr, I think, did that.
He just bailed and didn't fall in line at all.
I kept thinking he was a good guy, but then he just completely just folded.
And, you know, Kelly McInenney, I don't think she can get a job.
She's got a Harvard law degree.
She's going to get just blackballed.
Just horrible.
Kamala Harris had said, Kevin, she said during the run-up to the election that you people that contribute to Donald Trump will have your names, and there will be consequences.
If you contribute any money to Donald Trump, you're on the blacklist.
Well, this is the thing.
I mean, now the people who, again, supported the re-election of the president of the United States are being called everything we've ever been called and worst.
I mean, now they're banding about the domestic terrorist slur as if it's, you know, you're one of God's children.
And then again, I can't stress enough to see it expand so far in the line to be redrawn so far to include Josh Hawley, a sitting senator, can't even rent a hotel now.
Josh Hawley can't.
Can't even get a book published.
Yes, that's right.
That was about sold.
And then you have the media and members of the Democratic Party considering whether or not to bring criminal charges to the lawmakers who, quote unquote, supported insurrection, end quote.
Yeah.
And also with lawmakers who supported questioning the election.
And there were, you know, how many people.
Well, remember what they said, Kevin?
Remember, Kevin, what they said?
That basically all of these corporations make all these enormous contributions to political parties and political campaigns.
They're phrasing that.
And the people that came out for Trump are not going to get one red cent.
And that's the thing, Kevin.
They're saying they supported the insurrection by questioning the results.
But you take it away and take us to the House.
Yeah.
It's amazing that these big corporations, I mean, going up, the old Marxist idea was that, you know, the corporations, those bad guys, they are totally woke.
And they are in line with this thing, this revolution.
And that makes it much harder.
I mean, they've got so much money, so deep pockets.
And then you look at the charitable giving of the organizations there, the infrastructure there.
I mean, there's huge amounts of money in 501c3s that are going to the left.
And it seems like every wealthy person, I've often said we need one wealthy person, and we can't get any.
I mean, I'm talking billionaire.
Someone Bill Gates rich.
Bezos.
Elon Musk now is the richest guy in the world.
I think he's not on the far left, but he doesn't seem to be.
Even him, I've often wondered what kind of sanctions could these people impose on someone with that much wealth.
I think they could.
I don't think anybody.
Think about this, Kevin.
Kevin, just think about this.
Not $10 million given by corporate America to Black Lives Matter, but $10 billion.
That's absolutely astounding.
Yeah.
God, we had that much money in the bank.
God, we could change the world, but that's the way it is.
Well, Eli Musk, didn't he name his son Saxon?
I don't know if that's a sign or a signal or whatever.
He's had some inklings that maybe he's going to be on our side.
Anyway, I'd much rather him be the richest guy in the world than George Sorrell.
Bill Gates.
Bill Gates.
One of the richest went on to his eternal reward this week, Sheldon Adelson.
But anyway, yeah, so that's one of them.
Another one bites the dust, as the Queen said.
So anyway, Kevin, and looking forward, give us the forecast with two or three minutes remaining.
I guess it's going to be a pretty bleak outlook, but what do we expect as we enter into next week, the first of at least two years of a completely one-party system in Washington?
Well, I am hopeful that one or two Democrats will dissent from some of these things.
Like Joe Manchin, for example, has said he opposes ending filibuster.
That would help a lot.
And there are things like that.
He's not totally woke kind of Democrats.
There are such people yet.
But, yeah, it's very bleak.
And I sort of concerned that James Hyde and Keith are going to share a spell sometime in the gulag, you know, that they really want to.
I get top buck, guys.
I call it the top buck.
We don't want that.
And, you know, it's just.
They want that, though.
They want to see you begging on the street.
They want to see you in prison.
They want to see you suffer and pay some kind of penalty.
There's vengeance in the air.
It's not impossible to imagine with the one-party state.
No, it's always been one party.
I mean, the Republicans were always a shadow body in terms of opposition.
But now there's just no doubt about it, except this time in the wake of the Trump years, they're out for blood.
And it's not impossible to imagine, not at all, that you're going to have thought crime legislation here in the United States.
Hate speech legislation for sure.
Like you have in Europe and when you go to jail for speaking unpopular opinions.
Yeah, I mean, it's easy.
The First Amendment, they'll just say, well, it harms people.
Hate speech is violence.
You see, it makes people feel bad.
And it has no basis in scientific reality.
They'll say, you know, there's no basis for the idea that blacks are less intelligent or anything else.
It's all just systemic racism.
That's just known by science.
And so if you say that, you're just trying to be violent, you're hurting people, and there's just no other explanation.
And you're a bad person, and you should be in prison.
You should shut down.
That's the logic.
It's horrifying.
We'll see a lot of stall on the show trials in the future, I predict.
Well, we'll see.
But I'll tell you this: whatever's going to come, we will share in it together.
And there is hope that comes between having a fellowship and a community.
And it's great to have a fellowship of brothers that we have here every Saturday night.
And, of course, Kevin, you've always been such a leading light.
And the OccidentalObserver.net, I want to plug that one more time.
But a final word to you, my friend, as the music gets ready to play.
Well, I don't want to be too pessimistic because I am an optimist in the long run.
I do think that there are an awful lot of Americans who think that they've gone too far this time.
And if they start doing things they're wearing free speech, taking away guns is going to be a big deal.
And they basically said they're going to do that.
That is going to really anger an awful lot of whites and we'll see what happens.
Well, that's what Sam Dixon's going to talk about next.
Are they overplaying their hand?
And will they overplay it to such an extent that it will actually help those of us who believe in some sort of a traditional America?
