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, welcome back, everybody, to the second hour of tonight's live broadcast from TPC.
We are smack dab in the middle of Confederate History Month, and we are going to get to it in short order in the next hour.
Our popular annual series will continue in the next hour with our featured guests of the evening and the only guests of the evening, Kirk Lyons.
He is what, Keith?
Richard the lion-hearted or Kirk the lion-hearted.
He is the lion among men.
Lion among men.
That's what we're going to call him.
Lion lion.
Anyway, we're going to get to Kirk in the next hour as our attention turns to our southern patrimony.
But first, and continuing now, we have been breaking down to the first hour, the latest round of riots, looting, and arson in Minnesota and elsewhere across the country.
I'm a little bit hoarse this week if you've not yet noticed, but the show must go on.
Also continuing this hour with news and current events, just me and Keith.
We've been talking about police shootings, James, but you know, all police shootings are not created equally.
Well, we look at it.
It seems as though anytime you have one of these shootings, the first thing that comes up is what's the race of the perpetrator and the victim and what's their politics?
Well, Brad Griffin wrote about this, Keith.
Let me read this and toss it back to you.
And by the way, if you missed any of the first hour, we gave a pretty healthy treatment to the Dante Wright shooting in Minnesota.
If you were, for instance, eating a steak at Rich Hamblin's house in the first hour, and I saw a picture of what they were cooking there, Keith.
Well, we ate a steak, too, before we were there.
We didn't eat one of riches.
No, that's right.
That would have been better.
If you missed the first hour, you could go back and listen to it later.
But the corporate media, Brad Griffin wrote a good article about this.
The corporate media doesn't want to talk about it, and you talked about this tonight too, Keith, the black insurrectionist who was a follower of Louis Farrakhan and who attacked and killed a white male Capitol police officer.
They don't want to talk about the Black Lives Matter insurrectionist who stormed just a few days ago.
You didn't hear about this.
They stormed the Iowa State Capitol, got into a fight with the Iowa State troopers.
They don't want to talk about the slow-burning Antifa insurrection in Portland, Oregon either, which has been going on for years now.
Reality is a lot messier than the narrative.
Well, nothing to see here.
You know, it fits that media narrative perfectly.
If it's a white perpetrator and a black victim, the media narrative is racism or the Confederate flag.
If it is a white shooter and a white victim, it is going to be, I guess, it's just going to be gun control or whatever.
Or if it's a black shooter, excuse me, and a white victim, it's gun control.
And if it's a black shooter and a black victim, drop the story, run a story about the Kardashians and stuff.
And we've got it right here.
Last summer, Antifa and Black Lives Matter created sovereign territories in Seattle.
Can you imagine so-called white nationalists seizing territory, declaring independence, and getting away with it?
Would the DOJ, the FBI, and the ATF just let that happen?
They had another insurrection.
We talked about it in the last hour.
In Minneapolis, last week, after the police shooting of Dante Wright, the Minnesota National Guard had to be mobilized and sent in to stop the rioting and looting, and the insurrectionists even shot up a police station.
Now, as I mentioned, Keith, in that last hour, what happened in Minneapolis over the course of the last few days in the wake of the Dante Wright shooting was so predictable and so commonplace now, I wondered whether or not we even should make time to cover it on this program tonight.
Never have you ever seen white people in this memory hole.
All right, we're back.
We're back.
I don't know what happened there.
I don't know how long we've been gone.
Well, let's just repeat everything we said.
Okay.
We were going about 45 seconds.
I'm glad.
Okay, here's what it is.
So hang on.
So we were talking about.
We're talking about the media narrative and how it depends not on what happens, but on who does it and who's the victim.
Well, you're talking about the January the 6th so-called insurrection, four broken windows, and one death, the death of a white protester or a white demonstrator or a white person that came to a rally, whatever you want to call her, Ashley Babbitt killed by a black Capitol Hill policeman.
We still don't know the name of that Capitol Hill policeman, and we're not likely to find it out.
And Ashley Babbitt's name has been thrown down the memory hall.
But you reverse the races in that situation.
Had it been a black insurrectionist like we saw in Iowa, like we've seen across the country.
I'll just read this again because I don't know exactly what we should get out of this.
Here's the one thing.
Go quick.
According to the media narrative, black shooter, white victim like Ashley Babbitt, run story about the cards.
And that's exactly what the mainstream media did with this.
And if it had been a black insurrectionist shot by a white officer, you'd heard about the white officer's name.
You'd heard about it instantly.
You would have heard about all of this.
And it would have been the biggest story.
It would have spawned riots.
But Ashley Babbitt.
Yeah, she shouldn't have been breaking windows and climbing through, but it didn't deserve a death sentence either.
You don't know about the cop's name, but you do know he's not going to face charges.
You know that he's not going to face charges because the black-run government of the District of Columbia has decided that he shouldn't be prosecuted.
Now, if they said they weren't going to prosecute Derek Chauvin or this Kim lady that shot Derek or what was his name?
The young man in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota.
Dante Wright.
Yeah, Dante Wright.
I mean, America would be on fire.
Bottom line is this.
What you saw in what was alleged to be the greatest insurrection of domestic terrorists the country has ever seen, what you saw on January 6th was nothing, nothing, nothing compared to a garden variety Black Lives Matter or Antifa Wright riot, which is so commonplace now to see them burning out stores, looting and arson and all the rest, vandalism, so commonplace now, it hardly warrants mention.
They've run out of regular stores to go after in places like Portland.
They went after Dollar Tree recently.
I think they're going after a thrift store.
They will go after whatever is in their path.
They will, like Godzilla, they'll hit a foot locker, they'll hit a Dollar Tree, they'll hit an Apple store, they'll hit a little Caesars.
They'll hit a thrift store.
CVS, Rite Aid, Walmart, Target, whatever's there is going to be good enough because this is just fun to them.
This is what they're doing.
And so this is what they enjoy doing, and then they know that they're going to get away with it.
So we're living in this upside-down world where there has been an actual real insurrection, which has been going on for years at the Pacific Northwest, but the corporate media refused to call it that.
And the federal government refuses to do anything about it because Antifa and Black Lives Matter are the minions of the regime who are going to look the other way.
We're going to look the other way at their violence.
And so domestic extremists, that's what we're going to do.
Let's just get right down to the nitty-gritty James.
It's anti-white.
That's exactly what it is.
And you put that template on it and you understand everything that's going on.
All right, when we come back, that had an inside.
That was basically, I guess, the continuance in some shape, form, or fashion of our first hour commentary, if you missed it.
When we come back, we'll talk a little bit about what happened in Chicago this week.
The defense rests on the Chauvin trial.
And we're going to talk about Tucker Carlson versus the ADL and get to some of your letters in the mailbag before we go to Kirk Lyons.
Why don't we say to the government writ large that they have to spend a little bit less?
Anybody ever had less money this year than you had last?
Anybody better have a 1% pay cut?
You deal with it.
That's what government needs, a 1% pay cut.
If you take a 1% pay cut across the board, you have more than enough money to actually pay for the disaster relief.
But nobody's going to do that because they're fiscally irresponsible.
Who are they?
Republicans.
Who are they?
Democrats.
Who are they?
Virtually the whole body is careless and reckless with your money.
So the money will not be offset by cuts anywhere.
The money will be added to the debt, and there will be a day of reckoning.
What's the day of reckoning?
The day of reckoning may well be the collapse of the stock market.
The day of reckoning may be the collapse of the dollar.
When it comes, I can't tell you exactly, but I can tell you it has happened repeatedly in history when countries ruin their currency.
You know where the solution can be found, Mr. President?
In churches, in wedding chapels, in maternity wards across the country and around the world.
More babies will mean forward-looking adults, the sort we need to tackle long-term, large-scale problems.
American babies in particular are likely going to be wealthier, better educated, and more conservation-minded than children raised in still industrializing countries.
As economist Tyler Cowan recently wrote, quote, by having more children, you're making your nation more populous, thus boosting its capacity to solve climate change.
The planet does not need for us to think globally and act locally so much as it needs us to think family and act personally.
The solution to so many of our problems at all times and in all places is to fall in love, get married, and have some kids.
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.

And now back to tonight's show.
Talking about one shooting leading into the other before the previous has time to dissipate, we have yet another one in Chicago that the media and the rioters have latched on to.
They'll try to shoehorn anything into the narrative.
This one involved, tragically, to be sure, a 13-year-old boy.
Looked to be Hispanic.
I think they're calling him black, too.
I guess anybody's black that they want to be black today.
Everybody that's not white is black.
And some people who are white can be black, I guess.
Only Rachel Dolazal and Elizabeth Warren, I guess.
All right, so you have the shooting of a 13-year-old boy in Chicago, Adam Toledo.
Adam Toledo.
Take a look at this guy, by the way, folks.
He looks like the winner of the Alfred E. Newman look-alike contest.
All right, but here's the thing.
So 13-year-old boy, that's sad.
And yes, you could argue in both cases, the cases of Adam Toledo and the case of Dante Wright, obviously, that they could have not been shot.
And it would have been the right thing to do.
But we would also say you have to counter, if you're being honest, if you're not committing crimes, if you're not engaging in thug life, you're not going to be in trouble with the cops.
If you're not resisting arrest, and if you're not fleeing from the police.
There's going to be even the potential for an accident to occur.
So the better question is, though, why was a 13-year-old boy running the streets at 2.45 a.m. in the morning with a gun?
With a gun.
What was he doing?
He was shooting at cars passing by.
And he didn't have an AR-15, folks.
You know, all these AR-15s, they don't commit a dimple of a pimple on armed crime in America.
They had handguns.
Handguns are the guns.
And believe me, they'll be coming for them next.
They'll discover that.
But they want us disarmed from anything that could be an effective deterrent to tyranny, I guess.
So this was the thing.
And this kid was, you know, again, sadly, engaging in this lifestyle as well that brings you into conversations with the police where accidents can occur.
They said he wasn't holding the gun at the time he was shot.
He was unarmed at the time.
He was shot.
Well, that's because he threw the gun down.
I mean, literally just seconds before.
Even seconds, fractions of seconds before.
He dropped it and then he was shot.
And it's very possible that the police officer that shot him didn't see that because it was quite obscured.
Unless you were looking precisely at his hands when that happened, you wouldn't have seen that.
But this, again, like the Dante Wright situation last week, this situation, even more recently than that, is spawning all the usual suspects to feel the need to go out and engage in their typical behavior.
There's no narrative here.
This isn't white cops going out and gunning down non-whites because of the fact that they're non-white.
That's what they want you to believe.
And this is all happening under the backdrop of the Derek Chauvin trial, which is now wrapped up.
We're waiting for the verdict, which we expect will be in before we go back on the air next week.
More on that in just a second.
I don't have really much more to say about this kid in Chicago other than the fact that had he not been running the streets at 2.45 a.m. with a gun, he wouldn't have been shot.
So there's a lot of, there's some absentee parenting here.
And I'm not saying he necessarily deserved to die because of it, but you can't argue that he didn't put himself in that position.
At 2.45 in the morning running around armed, lashing a gun to police, allegedly shooting at cars passing by.
Yeah, that'll get you.
You got a chance that something bad's going to happen if that's what you're doing.
Right.
That's what they call asking for it.
All right.
So, but again, the reason we're bringing that up now is that has spawned yet another wave of the usual suspects engaging in the running out of stores to burn and loot now, I guess.
Not altogether.
There won't be one left standing.
But again, this is the police doing their job.
Look, if you've got a gun, you're flashing a gun at 2:45 in the morning.
All you got to do is raise it a couple of inches and pull the trigger.
That cop could have been dead.
And how about this?
What if he was shooting at cars passing by, which has been alleged?
How do we know those cops that shot him didn't save countless other lives?
What if he had shot a tire out and caused a family to wreck?
I mean, who knows what could have happened?
But you don't do that, and you would still be alive.
And again, the fleeing felon rule would have solved all this.
The police would have said, halt or I'll shoot.
And most perpetrators back in the day halted, turned around, dropped their gun, and said, Don't shoot, cop, just like Machine Gun Kelly did when they caught him on Rozelle Avenue in Memphis back in the mid-1930s.
All right.
There was one thing.
We mentioned the fact that the defense is rest in the Chauvin trial.
They put up a good 48 hours of defense.
There should have been a mistrial in that case.
That's something people aren't talking about.
Tell us why that should have occurred.
What happened this week, Keith?
You watched it.
Okay, what happened?
Well, you heard about it.
You couldn't watch it because they didn't televise it, but you know what happened.
No, I heard about it from an eyewitness report.
They had an expert witness, the defense did, that said that it's very possible that George Floyd died because of excess carbon dioxide in his bloodstream caused by this cocktail of drugs that he had.
And they had there was apparently some medical proof to this effect that had been conveniently left out of the production package that the prosecution produced for the defense.
The defense went back, not trusting the prosecution, and found a record that said just that.
Well, the judge got wind of what they were trying to do for a rebuttal to that, and he told them they could call this guy, this expert, back to the stand, but they couldn't ask him any question like that.
Well, lo and behold, the prosecution gets to have him back on the stand.
And what did they ask?
Exactly what they told the judge they wouldn't ask, and just exactly what the judge prohibited them from getting into.
But guess what?
The judge didn't call a mistrial.
He should have called a mistrial.
Now, the defense moved for a mistrial.
Now, if they don't get a mistrial on appeal because of that, then there is no justice, folks.
I'm telling you, this is what we live in the kangaroo court world if this happens in America.
America is the new Soviet Union.
This is like the trial of Nikolai Bukharin back in Stalin's show trial days.
If, by some miracle, you have one juror with the guts to face what's coming and put himself in the danger that would come from being honest Horatio at the bridge.
If somehow Chauvin is found guilty of all charges, which he should be, I'm not saying somehow because it would be astonishing that he was.
But even if he gets a mistrial because of one juror, for example, or are not guilty, they can't agree on a guilty verdict, you know, you're going to see all hell break.
Well, that's what I'm saying.
I mean, the riots that have been spawned by Wright and Adam Toledo.
I mean, that's just a warm-up.
Well, what's that ban from the 70s that's saying you ain't seen nothing yet?
Bachman Turner over there.
Yeah, that's right.
Bachman Turner overdrive.
America will be what they're doing.
Well, I'll tell you, you want to know what racial hatred looks like?
I had reposted a video to my Twitter account this week of a mob of blacks.
I mean, again, we have to call them that because that's what they are that differentiates them from the victims that they were targeting.
A horde of blacks calling out, and it was all on video, look, there's white people.
Go get them.
Go get them.
Oh, there's whites in that car.
They're pulling them out, beating them.
And they were filming it and laughing.
Now, that's entirely suppressed.
Could you imagine?
Imagine a group of whites running around half-cocked.
Oh, there's blacks over there.
Pull them out of the car.
Let's beat the hell out of them.
With a lot more colorful language than that, that I can't say on these airwaves.
But that's what was going on.
That's racial hatred.
That is racial hatred that does not occur from the people who are supposedly the proponents of it, but in fact, always the recipients of it.
But you didn't hear anything about that this week, not with Adam Toledo and Deontay Wright narrative.
On the other hand, if it had been a bunch of white people that saw a car full of black people and said, oh, look, those don't look like very nice people.
They would probably be prosecuted for a hate crime and be facing the death penalty under America's criminal justice system today.
Well, we had that up for a couple of days.
And honestly, I mean, it's not that rare either.
I mean, you see stuff like that all the time.
Polar bear hunting, knockout game.
I mean, there is racial hatred that exists.
Exactly the opposite.
That's exactly what you need to get to.
The lesson from all of this is we live in anti-white America today, folks.
There's no denying it.
There's no hiding from it.
If you have somebody that says they're a conservative that will not own that, they are lying and they don't deserve any audience.
What did Kevin call us about the last hour?
Kevin up in New Jersey.
Tucker Carlson versus the ADL.
What did Tucker do?
We'll tell you when we come back.
Informing citizens.
Pursuing liberty.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
USA Radio News with Dan Daraki.
For the first time, the president is calling the issue at the southern border a crisis.
President Biden told reporters Saturday that he intended to increase the cap on refugees after receiving pushback from fellow Democrats when he initially announced that refugee levels would be kept at Trump-era levels.
Border authorities say they continue to see increased levels of illegal crossings at the border, reporting more than 170,000 migrant encounters last month, with more expected this month.
National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd says the solution to the border crisis is easy.
He tells Fox News that a return to previously successful policies would solve the problem.
The solution is very simple.
We've got to look at what has worked in the past.
We also have to look towards the future.
I mean, as long as we continue to release people into the United States after they violate our laws with no consequences, people are going to continue to come.
That's the simple fact.
You're listening to USA Radio News.
When thinking about life insurance, my accident reinforced you never know what tomorrow might bring.
That's why I reached out to AccuQuote.
AccuQuote helps people find a life insurance policy that meets their needs.
Since 1986, they've helped millions of folks save up to 60% on their life insurance by comparing the rates and features of dozens of operated life insurance products.
A healthy 50-year-old non-smoker can buy a half a million dollars of 10-year level term for less than 45 bucks a month.
A 60-year-old under $120 a month.
Longer or permanent terms are available.
Even if you already own life insurance, you really need to check out my friends at AccuQuote.
Don't worry about health issues.
Remember, they help me.

The CDC says that about half of all American adults have received at least one dose of COVID vaccine.
The new data is showing that more than 128 million people have received at least one dose.
More than 82 million people are fully vaccinated.
But despite those numbers, cases are still on the rise in many parts of the country.
More than 20 states have reported a rise of at least 10% in new cases over the last week.
Jodi Guest is a professor and vice chair of the Department of Epidemiology at Emory University.
She tells CBS News that the rise can be attributed to spreading variants of the virus as well as pandemic fatigue.
I think at this point in time, we see the variants are a huge part of it, and not enough people are being vaccinated, although certainly those numbers are growing every single day, which is fantastic.
But we also see people are really tired, and people have, you know, don't want to wear their masks out in public anymore.
They want to get back to what life felt like before COVID-19.
And we really need to stay on top of all those prevention measures.
They really matter when we don't have enough of our population vaccinated yet, and they are the way to keep the variants from circulating.
This is USA Radio News.
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.
Folks, there's good news out there.
There really is.
Not as much in America as we'd like, but certainly our people are experiencing good things in other parts of the world.
Denmark has stripped refugees of their residency permits.
So that's good.
And then just this week, President Putin demands that a million illegal aliens leave Russia by June 15th, says those who refuse will be punished.
And I guess that's a word that'll be open to interpretation.
But let's talk quickly about Tucker Carlson.
Actually, let's just listen to Tucker.
Let's listen to the full two-minute clip he gave on his show this week that caused him so much upsettedness from the ADL.
If I could figure out, there we go, let's get that pulled up, and here we are.
If you heard prominent people talk like this in any other country, you'd be confused.
A nation's leadership class admitting they hope to replace their own citizens?
It seems grotesque.
If you believed in democracy, you would work to protect the potency of every citizen's vote, obviously.
You wonder if people even debate questions like this in countries that don't hate themselves, countries like Japan or South Korea or Israel.
Go to the Anti-Defamation League's website sometime if you'd like a glimpse of what an unvarnished conversation about a country's national interest might look like.
In a short essay posted to the site, the ADL explains why the state of Israel should not allow more Arabs to become citizens with voting rights.
Quote, with historically high birth rates among the Palestinians and a possible influx of Palestinian refugees and their descendants now living around the world, the ADL explains, Jews would quickly become a minority within a bi-national state, thus likely ending any semblance of equal representation and protections.
In this situation, the Jewish population would be increasingly politically and potentially physically vulnerable.
It is unrealistic and unacceptable, the ADL continues, to expect the state of Israel to voluntarily subvert its own sovereign existence and nationalist identity and become a vulnerable minority within what was once its own territory.
End quote.
Now, from Israel's perspective, this makes perfect sense.
Why would any democratic nation make its own citizens less powerful?
Isn't that the deepest betrayal of all?
In the words of the ADL, why would a government subvert its own sovereign existence?
Good question.
Maybe ADL President Jonathan Greenblatt will join us sometime to explain and tell us whether that same principle applies to the United States.
Most Americans believe it does.
Unfortunately, most Americans don't have a say in the matter.
Most Americans aren't even allowed to have the conversation.
So they watch from the sidelines as their democracy is murdered by people who claim to be its defenders.
Democracy, democracy, democracy, screams the Twitter mob.
Even as the votes of the people who were born here decline steadily in value, diluted and increasingly worthless, like the U.S. dollar.
Folks, we've already won.
The results just aren't in yet.
I say it.
I will continue to say it.
Two years ago, certainly five years ago, you didn't have the most popular cable news host on television saying these things.
You didn't have Donald Trump talking about critical race, the president of the United States talking about and condemning critical race theory.
Things are changing.
It will take time for the solutions to present themselves and for the society to completely erode this woke, the weight of the woke culture to collapse.
But it is going to happen whether or not we live to see the mountaintop.
I just want to live to see the valley and to have played some sort of a role by doing my duty.
But when you hear people like Tucker Carlson talking like this, talking like what?
What are we talking about?
Is that some sort of deranged hate speech?
No, it's truth.
It's facts.
It's common sense.
He's pointing out the hypocrisy in the nationalism for me, but not for the argument.
And he did it well and he did it as good as I've heard.
The hypocrisy of Jewish power and influence on full display.
He doesn't have to call it out and say that's what it is.
It's obvious.
And in the background, you see a picture of Jonathan Pollard, the present head of the anti-defamation league, looking for all it's worth like the modern reincarnation of Nosferatu.
I believe you mean Greenblatt.
Greenblatt did.
What did I say?
Well, anyway, Greenblatt looks like the modern Nosferatu.
And unfortunately, he acts like the modern Nosferatu when it comes to the historic American nation.
How does he explain why Jews get more rights in Israel than Americans get in America?
We've always said, Keith, that if we could just take Israel's domestic policy and claim it for ourselves, well, we'd have a pretty good start.
Well, again, why is there this discrepancy?
Why is there this lack of consistency?
Why do the principles that apply to Israel don't apply to the United States?
And if we had Jewish power and influence back on its heels where they weren't secretly driving this left-wing agenda as they are now, we could win.
That's why, you know, so I'm glad he decided to call out the ADL.
That really took some cojones.
I'm glad that.
This is no second-tier guy.
I mean, Tucker Carlson is not able to say on Fox News what we say here on these airwaves.
It's a different medium.
It's a different forum.
Obviously, he has a bigger reach than we do.
And I appreciate what truth he is able to tell.
And I don't even know if he agrees with us on everything, but I can tell you this.
I do appreciate his stand there.
And it took more courage for him to do that than anyone that I have seen that is part of the establishment media apparatus exhibit in since Pat Buchanan was walking the city.
Well, that's exactly right.
You know, it's famously noted that Rush Limbaugh started to tread on that ground early in his career, and he was warned off.
Tucker Carlson showed more courage in those two minutes than, as far as I'm concerned, Rush Limbaugh showed in his career.
Well, Rush Limbaugh started to get into the Jewish question, but when he did, he was warned off it.
And believe me, if he hadn't stopped it, he would have been the famous unknown.
He would have been the most famous commentator, political commentator in America that no one has ever heard.
Thankfully, the Lord didn't call him home before he could compare yours truly to Bull Conner, though.
And by the way, by the way, Rush, Bull Conner was right.
And Bull Conner, I guarantee you, you wouldn't have seen in Bull Connor's Alabama what you've seen in Minnesota.
And that's for the good, and that's for the best.
Well, that's right.
And we need to, in fact, that is the touchstone, that is the acid test as to whether or not a conservative is a real conservative or just a watered-down liberal.
Somebody like a Denise D'Souza, for example.
The acid test is, what is your position on the civil rights movement?
If you think that the civil rights movement was righteous and holy in all of its aspects and that Martin Luther King was a great hero, deserving a national holiday, then you are worthless.
You have no right to try to lead the conservative movement because basically you've let the camel's nose in the tent and that camel has moved the historic American nation out of its own tent.
You can't do that.
You have to understand that the civil rights movement was just the first of a series of radical egalitarian leftist movements intended to transform America from a white nation to a non-white nation.
And if you don't understand that, then you're not paying attention or you're not very smart.
I think you could argue that there were some benefits that come from Donald Trump losing re-election.
And of course, we look back and he wasn't able to do a lot of the things in his term that we had hoped.
And I don't think he would have done much more in his second term.
But the right is galvanizing now in a way that because of, I guess, the desperation of what appears to be the current dynamics that I don't think we would have otherwise, in some ways, we may be better off.
But no matter what, win, lose, or draw, it's not going to come down to one president.
Our people have to make this change, and it begins in ourselves and in our spirit and in our Christian faith.
And, you know, it was the Christian faith that saved Europe.
It'll be the Christian faith that saves us.
We have to embrace it, but we need a massive.
But it's not the Christian faith that is being preached in most Christian churches in America.
And furthermore, what Tucker said is something that you never would have heard anybody with one of the major news networks saying before Donald Trump came along.
Not one.
You know, there was this conspiracy of silence.
You had people like Denise D'Souza supposedly being spokesman for conservatism and his best argument like Adam.
Democrats are the reason.
Yeah, Democrats are the real racists, blah, yada, yada, yada, all that stuff.
And Bull Connor and, you know, Martin Luther King the righteous and all that other baloney and malarkey that they've tried to sell to the American people.
And I can tell you that in places like Memphis, liberalism is a mile wide and an inch deep.
People really don't believe it.
They know the truth, but they can't afford to say it if they don't.
They say it almost every show.
When it becomes trendy, fashionable, in vogue, profitable, the path to power, to have our talking points, everybody's going to always have been a true believer.
Oh, yeah, we always got to do it.
In 1955, Birmingham, all the beautiful people were segregationists.
Well, and the bottom line is, though, we have one thing going for us that the enemy does not have, the left does not have.
It's truth.
And it's a lot easier to sell truth than it is fiction.
And we have truth on our side.
All we need to do is make it trendy, fashionable, in vogue, and profitable again.
People will have the courage to embrace it.
And I believe that day will come, folks.
We'll be back.
Stay tuned.

Well, my mom smokes and my dad smokes and I saw them smoke until I tried it.
They're telling me not to smoke, but they smoke themselves.
When it comes to smoking, are you sending mixed signals?
But when you teach someone a certain way to do things and you go back on that certain way, it sends mixed signals to the person that they're trying to teach.
The parents need to be the example.
Smoking.
If you think you're old enough to start, you're smart enough to stop.

So, uh, you two are real actors, huh?
Well, I was an extra on a soap opera for three years.
And I'm best known for starring in cat food commercials.
And you're going to play our parents for how long?
Oh, just during dinner for the next few years, probably until you're both off to college.
Your real parents will be back every night at 8 o'clock.
8 o'clock?
Hey, your dad's busy.
He's got work, softball, client function.
Yeah, and your mom, she's got the literary club and play rehearsals.
Don't you worry, they'll be back on time.
Otherwise, we get time and a half.
We have coaching.
Okay, according to the script, we're supposed to ask you how your day was.
Yes.
Um, okay, I guess.
Oh, is that the best you can do?
I think I want my real parents.
I don't see that in a script.
No ad-libbing, please.
There's no substitute for a loving parent.
And when you're really there, you'll know how much you care.

Forever was made for us, but for us and when by tonight, don't say you don't remember.
I'll never love anyone else if you say you don't remember.
How can the one living that is Beverly Brimmer's Don't Say You Don't Remember?
Keith, this segment is going to serve as the segue into our third and final hour where our focus will return to our annual Confederate History Month series with Kirk Lyons Esquire as our featured guest.
Don't say you don't remember.
Who do we remember this month and in fact all the year round?
Our Confederate ancestors.
Here I am.
I'm back on my microphone.
I remembered that.
That was from 1972 back in my days as a disc jockey in the far distant past.
I remember that song.
She's a one-hit wonder, basically, and that's a great song.
And it's one that I think fits in with Confederate History Month.
Don't say you don't remember your Confederate ancestors.
And you need to speak the names of your Confederate ancestors to your children as often as possible.
Tell them without embellishing the truth what they did in the war to the extent that you know.
Let them know that they have a Confederate hero in their lineage.
Because a lot of people nowadays, they don't even know where their grandparents are buried, for heaven's sake.
We need to know, as Southerners, we need to know who our ancestors were in the Civil War, in the First World War, in the Second World War, in the Revolutionary War, in the War of 1812.
Go to ancestry.com, find out about these people and celebrate them.
Because if you don't have pride in your ancestry, then you don't have any mooring for being an advocate of your own people.
Well, there is a gentleman that remembers his Confederate ancestors above and beyond you and I.
And well, so many of our audience does, but I had the opportunity to meet with one this morning.
At 8:30 in the morning, this morning, he was driving through and he called me.
We actually set this up yesterday, and he said he wanted to drop off something with me, and he made a contribution to the program.
But he left me with something else, a sheet of paper which I now hold in my hand.
And he said he would consider it to be an honor if I would read the names of his Confederate ancestors as part of our Confederate History Month coverage.
And I told him I would be honored to do that.
Their names should live forever.
And that's the thing I want you to remember about our Confederate History Month coverage, ladies and gentlemen.
It's not just about Lee Forrest Jackson.
Yes, I mean, they get the books written about them.
Every member of the Confederate States Army, every single one of them, was a hero that far outshines any of their contemporaries today.
And so let's just go down.
He's got four of them here on this sheet of paper, and I want to salute them all here on the show tonight.
I want to salute James Bennett Ellard, who was a private in Company C, the 8th Mississippi Cavalry Regiment.
He enlisted at Concord, Mississippi on August 17th, 1863, at the age of 37.
These, again, are the ancestors of our listener and supporter here in the local area.
William Washington Ellard was a second sergeant in Captain Truss's company, Barbary's battalion of the Alabama Cavalry.
He enlisted at Evaton, Alabama, September 4th, 1863.
Joe Barry Ellard was an instructor at the camp of instruction at Talladega, Alabama.
And then there was Merritt Ellard, a private in Company I in Percy's 1st Mississippi Infantry Regiment, the Army of 10,000.
James Ellard, William Ellard, Joseph Ellard, Merritt Ellard, we salute you.
These are the ancestors and the grandfathers of one of our supporters here in the area.
He asked us to mention their names.
Not only do we mention them, we salute them as our heroes.
And what a wonderful patrimony this listener has.
And we're honored to know him.
And we're honored to speak the name of his ancestors tonight.
Now, while we're speaking the name of ancestors, tell us the name of your ancestor that was in the Civil War and what his service record was.
Well, we've got a lot.
We've got a lot.
I've got a lot.
You've got collateral ancestors, and then you've got the ones that you directly descend from.
The one that the SCV used to get me in with, and we can talk more about this next week.
Actually, when we end our Confederate History Month coverage next week, I don't want to give away too much because this is something we're going to be talking about.
We're going to be talking about our personal patrimony and our personal heritage.
But I will mention Levi Smith, who was a private.
I always joke, I descended from the only private in the Confederate Army.
Well, that was before I met our friend today, who has two privates in the Confederate Army.
We were the only two who descended from privates.
I know that much, though.
No, you weren't.
There's a third one, me.
My ancestor was a private in Forrest 15th Tennessee Cavalry, IES Alexander Independence Ellen Schuler Elliott.
You probably win the contest for coolest name.
But no, Levi Smith was a private in the 4th Battalion, Mississippi Cavalry, Confederate States Army.
And he was the father of my great-grandmother, who married my great-grandfather, whose last name was Austin.
So Ruby Smith became Ruby Austin.
She gave birth to Billy Sue Austin, my grandmother, who became Billy Sue Edwards when she married my grandfather, and then on and on down the line is direct descendant, all the way back up to Levi Smith, who fought at Shiloh and did his duty.
And I'm honored to descend from a man who has the fighting blood of our Scotch-Irish kinsmen.
We talked about that with Michael Hill last week.
Listen, folks, it doesn't just go back to 1861 to 1865.
Our people are eternal.
Our people go back generations and centuries, and it is a direct line.
And what an honor to be one who holds the line, literally, genetically speaking, and who passes it on.
And it is a treasure worth more than anything else.
And it is very important, James, that these names be spoken and that they be spoken within the context of the family so that your children and their children will know where they are.
You need to show your children where these people are buried so they can find the grave and show it to you in your church.
We've got articles about that.
And in fact, that'll be another thing we talk about when we close this series out next month.
I wrote an article just some years ago, actually, because we have done it for years, taking them down to visit the graves of not just their Confederate ancestors, but their great-grandparents, who, of course, were born long after the war and didn't have the opportunity to serve or didn't have the ability.
We do not need to forget our history.
People who forget their history are bound to repeat it.
And we do not want another defeat like the one we had in the so-called Civil War.
We need to win this time.
I want to read this very quickly.
Now, we've had some great guests this month.
You've had Rebecca Dillingham, Dissident Mama, Michael Hill, of course, Dr. Hill of the League of the South, and then Gene Andrews last week, Kirk Lyons tonight.
We're going to wrap up Confederate History Month next week.
But how about this letter?
Handwritten as so many are that come into us.
Dear James and Keith, this is from Mike in Virginia.
As I adjust Mike just a little bit.
He's adjusting his mic.
So will.
Dear James and Keith, I'm confident that with the Lord's help, you will continue to overcome.
It's James Edwards and Keith Alexander and our people.
It's what we've been doing for millennia, such that it has now become a hallmark of Western man.
I really enjoyed your recent march around the world and was particularly inspired by the Reverend Jim Doson.
He's a wee fighting lad, full of vinegar, ain't he now?
Yes, I read that with the accent that I believe you intended it to read.
Could you add links to his song selections onto your website so we could enjoy those in full?
That is a fantastic question, Mike, and suggestion.
And I'll do so if possible, Mike continues.
It'd be nice to list the music of all your March guests as well.
I love each distinct European identity and will strive mightily to maintain and nurture them.
But we certainly need to unite in a pan-European brotherhood or at least to a true truce of mutual respect, even with good Yankees, he writes with a smiley face, to survive and shatter the demonic forces arrayed against us now and in the future.
Looking forward to celebrating Confederate History Month with you and continue to preserve and persevere in Christ the King.
And he includes a verse with respect and appreciation.
He signs his name and then writes Psalms 18, 29, and 30.
For by you I can run upon a troop, and by God I can leap over a wall.
As for God, his way.
Okay, I think we're back.
I don't know why that actually happened again, but I was reading there a note from Mike.
I don't know if we have time to read it all again or how much I was able to read through, having a little bit of, well, it goes without saying when the air cuts us off, a little bit of technical difficulty with the connection there.
But anyway, I was just reading from a wonderful letter from Mike in Virginia, a handwritten letter, talking about how much he appreciated our march around the world, Jim Dosen, how with God's help we will continue to persevere.
And he included a scripture verse, Psalm 18, 29 through 30.
For by you I can run upon a troop and by God I can leap over a wall.
As for God, his way is blameless.
The word of the Lord is tried.
He is a shield to all who take refuge in him.
I love the notes we received from our audience, Keith.
I love the fact that so many of our listeners include scripture verses.
It's a wonderful thing.
They are truly the salt of the earth.
They are the true American people.
We've got to take a break.
We'll continue with Confederate history on it next.
