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.
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for staying with us.
We are now in the second hour of tonight's live broadcast of TPC.
I'm your host, James Edwards, here live in South Carolina.
And I had a really interesting and enjoyable day today.
And I had an incredible chaperone who took me around.
And we went to a Confederate museum.
And boy, did my reputation precede me because when I arrived, we got put in, I got brought in through the back door.
And the curator of the museum himself gave me a personal guided tour.
So, Hunter, why don't you come on up here if you can?
I mean, you know, move one seat to the next.
That's coming up, I guess.
You can put the headset on and turn on your mic.
And Hunter was our guest.
Now, Hunter was my tour guide, I should say.
But he was also our guest the last two times we have broadcast from this location.
Now, we were just sharing with a fellow traveler during the break that when Hunter first appeared with us in November of 2020, this is his third appearance.
Now, he was also with us in July of 21, just a few months ago, last summer.
You had a marriage proposal and some interest from the ladies.
That's what you're talking about.
I thought you were talking about my actual marriage proposal.
But that's why you couldn't accept the ones from our audience.
I'm in love with my high school sweetheart, James.
Isn't that romantic?
Isn't that romantic?
So Hunter is about 10 years my junior, but he is an incredible guy and just had your first child, am I not mistaken?
I did.
She's 40 days old.
40 days.
You're counting 40 days and 49.
You're counting it still by the days.
That's wonderful.
And, of course, you may remember Hunter from his previous appearances on the program when we were here in South Carolina.
But we had a great day today, Hunter, did we not?
Tell me what we did.
We had a good time.
Well, we met up at the museum downtown and took you on a little tour there.
And you met all the guys, all the old men that hang around, drink coffee, and chew the fat.
I said, this is what a smoke-filled room must be like.
We went in, and there was just these older gentlemen just sitting around, just chewing the cud and talking.
And it was just.
What did you think about everything that we had in there?
Well, you know, when we started, I said, I need a notebook.
I got to jot down some stories to tell on the radio tonight.
It was this local Confederate museum, and the exhibits were pristine, and obviously having the curator come out and let us get hands-on with the exhibits.
I mean, it reminded me, and I mean this affectionately, of being in Belize.
Because in Belize, you can actually climb up the pyramids, the Mayan pyramids.
You can lay on the altars.
You can do all of these things.
In America, you can't get hands-on with any authentic goods, historical goods.
And I was able to stand there and hold ancient Dixie relics.
Well, I had a musket, and that bayonet was sharp.
But that was a bayonet that was used.
And I wondered, how many did this one get?
I wonder.
And you had this triad with the bayonets.
The wounds were.
My dad used to say, James, he used to say, Hunter, you know, the only blood that we, only Yankee blood that we have in our family is it stains the sword that lies on the mantle of our fireplace.
Well, I got to hold an authentic Confederate saber.
I got to hold an authentic Confederate musket.
I mean, stuff that was used in battle, you know, authentically used in battle.
Touch a Confederate cannon, touch a Confederate torpedo.
There's a torpedo in that museum.
But I'm just going to go through in no particular order some of the things that I saw that I thought were particularly noteworthy.
And one was just some of the names.
Now, my co-host Keith Alexander has a Confederate ancestor whose name is Independence Ellen Schuler Alexander.
And I thought that was an interesting name.
He also has a Confederate ancestor named President Washington Alexander.
So these were unique names.
But we met someone there, a South Carolinian General States Rights Gist.
Right.
States Rights Gist.
He died in the war.
His name was States Rights.
His name was States Rights.
These people were committed.
They named their kids after this.
Well, he was actually born, obviously.
He was of age by the time of the war.
So when he was named States Rights, that had to have been in the 1840s.
If you look at, and I just want to speak on this for a second, the war for southern independence, the war of northern aggression, the Civil War, the people in the South, they saw this as the second American Revolution.
And if you'll notice, Jefferson Davis, that name sounds familiar, Thomas Jefferson.
They had these names that they were the old country.
Well, so many of our Confederate heroes descended from the fighting men of the American Revolution.
And there's just no doubt about that.
Patrick Henry's ancestor was a Confederate.
You could just go on and on and on down the list.
But so, yes, I mean, even it permeated as far as the names with General States' Rights thing.
States' rights, yeah.
So I talked about touching a Confederate torpedo, bayonet, musket, a cannon, a cannon that was actually captured by Stonewall Jackson.
I got to put my hands on it.
Normally, these things would be encased, but we got to get up close and personal.
Yeah, and I don't know if you heard my dad, but they had to go to court to get that cannon.
They had to excavate it from a stone wall that was built in the city, and they won the court case, and they excavated it, and it was just the iron that they had, but they were able to build a carriage to go along with it.
And one thing that I learned about the and those so many of those carriages were built in this part of South Carolina at a foundry.
Well, there's, yeah, now it's a wedding venue, but that was where, heck, all the nice carriages were made.
And that particular cannon, that particular model of cannon, it was an anti-artillery cannon.
It wasn't necessarily a cannon that you would fire at the enemy with a cannonball.
It shot a shell that would take out other enemy cannon, Yankee cannon.
And they said it was so accurate it could hit a five-gallon bucket at 2,000 yards.
This is in the 1860s.
That's incredible.
Yeah, it's amazing.
Now, another story that I learned today with regard to Confederate accuracy was the story of the Whitworth sharpshooter rifle.
So I learned today that Whitworth was an Englishman who would not sell his wares to the Yankees.
He would sell them to the Confederates.
And his rifle was so accurate that it certainly exceeded anything that the Yankees had.
General John Sedgwick was Noted a saying right before he died his men were cowering behind fencing and cowering behind obstacles and he said they couldn't hit me from here.
Bam!
He's dead.
He said his exact quote was they couldn't hit an elephant at this distance.
And that was his last words.
He was shot in the head at 850 feet by a Confederate sniper.
That is 840 feet, 8.5 football fields.
A Confederate sharpshooter took him out with his Whitworth rifle.
You know, they doubted us, but we showed him.
And we mentioned that what I learned today, the average rifle that was used in the war was $14 at the time, which was the equivalent of $800 today.
The Whitworth rifle was $100 in gold.
Yeah, $100 in gold.
Shout out to the Brits.
Thank you for that.
Wish you could have done more for that.
Get a lot of Yankees with that.
More stories like this, ladies and gentlemen, with Hunter, who has been my chaperone today.
He's taken me around the town, and we've had a wonderful time at the museum.
And now back on the broadcast with us for a third time, Hunter is with us and eating some more things to do.

Getting the kids to school, cleaning the house, doing the laundry.
It seems that the work routine as a stay-at-home mom is never ending.
And even though I'm a prime grocery shopper in our family of four, I simply don't have time to scrutinize all the labels on the countless food products I buy.
Oh, sure.
I've noticed all the latest certification seals, organic, non-GMO, gluten-free.
It definitely seems to be the latest craze.
But it was only recently that kosher certification seals caught my attention.
You see, my husband had me download an app called Kosher Certified, and it shed light on a century-old certification industry that slipped under the radar screen from the majority of our public.
I also noticed a question mark at the end of the app name.
And that makes great sense as there's far more questions regarding this industry than answers.
In fact, the developers refer to this as the kosher question.
Sure.
I'm a busy mom and didn't pay attention to our food culture.
But now I have transparency, a convenient grocery list feature, and the ability to eat in favor of my family's vast interests.
And you can discover it, too, at thekosherquestion.com.

And now back to tonight's show.
Well, the crack team of those assembled this evening corrected me on something, and I'm glad that they did.
It was not 850 feet.
I could hit something at 850 feet.
It was 850 yards when General John Sedgwick, who had just said to his cowering Yankee forces they couldn't hit an elephant at this distance, that he was popped in the head at 850 yards.
Now, that with the Whitworth rifle was one hell of a shot.
Yeah, we were looking at the two uniforms.
At this museum today, there was the Yankee uniform, which was meticulous and well outfitted.
Well outfitted.
That's right.
Versus the Confederate.
The waterproof satchel.
Their boots were waterproof.
Their powder bag was waterproof.
And then you look at the Confederate uniform.
And explain that to him.
Well, I mean, you just had you look at the juxtaposition.
It's impossible odds.
The Confederate uniform was made up of curtains.
Their satchel was made out of curtains.
They dyed their wool with butternut, and everything was really homemade for them.
And they gave them everything they could take for four years and had a couple of opportunities for us at their peril, they did.
And we're not done yet.
We're now 300,000 before they conquered us.
Well, you know, we don't call it the third national flag.
We call it the current flag because we have not yet surrendered, but we are under occupation.
Now, I learned the story of, if I could read my own writing here, Bernard Elliott B. Bernard Elliott B., you've heard the quote, I'm sure, rally behind the Virginians.
There's Jackson standing like a stone wall.
But did you know who gave the quote?
It was Bernard Elliott B., a South Carolinian.
Right, and I don't know much about him.
You're going to have to get my dad on the radio.
He's got a computer in his brain when it comes to Civil War history.
And I really don't know much about him.
Well, there's nothing more to say than that.
It was a South Carolinian.
A lot of people have heard that quote about Stonewall.
But it was a South Carolinian by the name of Bernard Elliott.
I guess that's all you need to know about it.
You were listening better than my dad than I was because I didn't even know he said that.
Well, I tell you, I learned something about the state flag today.
You said, what do you see when you see the South Carolina flag?
I said, I see a crescent moon over a palmetto tree.
Yeah, and a lot of people think it's a crescent moon, but it's not really a gorgette, which a gorgette was a throat protector.
It was a piece of steel that, and really officers wore it a lot.
And it goes back to the Revolutionary War with the Fort Moultrie flag.
And there's a lot of hidden history, James, that people don't know about.
Well, I learned it today myself.
Now, let's talk about the South Carolina Redshirts and what ended Reconstruction.
So we all talk about the horrors of Reconstruction as a Southerner.
It was good for us in a way, inso much as suffering can be good and suffering can be good.
Well, it binds together a culture and a people.
But South Carolinians ended Reconstruction, and your dad told me how they did it today.
They did.
If you don't know what we're driving at, ladies and gentlemen, his dad is the curator of this museum, so we'll connect the dots there.
But talk about the South Carolina Red Shirts, who they were.
Well, the Red Shirts were a post-war band of brothers who got together during this time of oppression.
And really, you had, you know, blacks were enfranchised, whites were disenfranchised, and Confederate veterans couldn't vote, couldn't own a gun, couldn't gather in large groups, couldn't go to church together and pray because they could be conspiring and whatnot.
And the Red Shirts were a group of men that got together and protected one another, and there was business routes trading cotton and whatnot.
And the federal government had given rifles to blacks, and they were guarding the road, making people pay tolls.
And so the Red Shirts were an escort group, really.
That's what they started out as, protecting local merchants so they could travel back and forth freely.
And then they turned the state around.
They saved the state, and a lot of people look at it in a negative light.
Of course, that's the way they paint it, but I see them as heroes, James.
Well, you know, I've heard of other paramilitary groups that came up after the war.
And they were the beginning of that.
That helped salve the wounds and protect the women and children that had been left for the vultures.
But if there's no law and order, people are going to make it.
God's own is going to make it themselves.
And there's a government in waiting.
I'll tell you that right now.
Even if this all falls tomorrow, there's a government in waiting.
And I'm sitting around a bunch of guys right now who are learning their individual lessons.
And we'll be there when that time comes.
Let's talk about the role South Carolina played in the ending of Reconstruction.
This was with a split decision, the sort of parallel governments that are going on with Wade Hampton and Rutherford B. Hayes.
Yeah, Wade Hampton is my hero.
I graduated from Wade Hampton High School.
Proud of that fact.
But when it came time to power politics and political power brokering, they didn't just ask for South Carolina to be spared.
They asked for the entire South, and they got it.
And that's what in the United States.
The federal troops left.
They left after Wade Hampton had made a deal.
Rutherford B. Hayes knew he had to have that vote in the South.
And they said, you end Reconstruction, not just in South Carolina, but the entire South.
So there was Wade Hampton taking one for the team for our entire nation.
Right.
Now, do you think your followers know much about Mance Jolly?
You know what?
I want to tell them about him.
I want to tell him about Mance Jolly because we got the Jolly Boys down here.
So this is another.
He's a local folk hero around here.
But this is, you know, I so appreciate the guerrilla mentality.
I like Bloody Bill Anderson.
I like Quantrell's Raiders.
I am named in part after Jesse and Frank James.
My middle name is Franklin.
My brother's name is Jesse.
I'm James, so you can probably connect the dots there.
So, you know, there's a little bit of romanticism with these outlaws that continued the war after the fact.
But Mance Jolly was a South Carolina hero, and he has an incredible story, which I'd love for you to share.
And I've got something.
He was an upstate South Carolina folk hero, a true rebel in the woods type.
His Confederate furlough papers describe him as, quote, six feet four inches high, ruddy complexion, blue eyes, red hair, and by profession, a farmer, born in Anderson District in the state of South Carolina, end quote.
He lost six of his brothers during the war, and upon his return home, he found it occupied by federal troops, some of them Negroes.
Rather than submit and be reconstructed, he engaged in guerrilla warfare upon the federal troops and also their informers.
While it cannot be verified, Jolly's legend was that he made many of his oppressors disappear.
Well, he said that, you know, there's a discrepancy.
He wanted to kill either one or five Yankees for every one brother he lost, but he ended up killing anywhere between 20 and 100, best we know.
And he ended up drowning.
They never did catch him.
Yeah, he drowned in Texas.
He went to Texas and ended up drowning.
Yeah.
So they never got him.
Mance Jolly.
So that's a listen.
Look him up.
Mance Jolly.
Hey, John Weaver's got a pastor Weaver, who's been on this program, of course.
Yeah, he's got a whole lecture on him.
And I think anybody that's interested in that would really enjoy that.
A hero of South Carolina, but also a hero of the entire Confederacy.
No doubt.
This is, again, something that happened after the war.
But the war is still being waged upon us, is it not, ladies and gentlemen?
And I learned one more thing that I should share today at the museum, and we only have seconds remaining.
Individual by the name of, this was interesting to me, James Edward Hanger.
He took note of that.
Well, you saw me.
I had to.
James Edward Hanger.
Do you want to tell that story?
Well, he developed a prosthetic leg for himself.
And then when he went to go enlist in battle, they said, hey, look, buddy, you're too valuable.
You've created this prosthetic leg.
And we're going to pay you to make more of those.
Because there's going to be a lot more.
There's a lot of legs that they did.
And it's the most successful prosthetic leg company.
And they're still in business today.
That is a Confederate enterprise.
James Edwards Hanger, Hanger Prosthetics.
Look him up.
Still in business today, founded by a Confederate who had his leg blown off during the war.
He made his own artificial leg, wanted to get back in the war.
And then they said, no, we need you to make this for other veterans that'll surely be needing him.
And it's still in existence today.
We'll be right back, ladies and gentlemen.
Proclaiming liberty across the land.

USA Radio News with Wendy King.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is retiring from the NFL.
ESPN broke the news, citing multiple anonymous sources.

Brady's legacy will be marked by his longevity and big game performances.
He's the only player to be the Super Bowl MVP five times and has been named the league's top regular season player three times.
This announcement comes just days after Brady completed his second campaign with the Buccaneers as the defending Super Bowl champions fell to the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC semifinals.

A massive blizzard is hitting the northeast, causing power outages in the region and forcing cancellations of thousands of flights.
The storm pummeled New York City, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Massachusetts, where snowfall rates of one to two inches per hour are being recorded.
Tens of millions of people are under winter weather alerts, stretching from the mid-Atlantic to New England.
Wind gusts are reported up to 40 miles per hour, but they're expecting more along the coast.
If you're in the blizzard and you need to leave home, cleanup crews are warning people to watch out.
The snowplow driver explains.
It's tough to see if you're pulling out of your driveway trying to get a head start just to get out.
Plows are coming down and we can't see out of our windows that great.
So we have guys in the truck there watching out the windows on the side, but still it's very dangerous.
If a plow hits you, you know, a five-ton truck hits you, you know, it's not a good thing.
So just be careful.
You're listening to USA Radio News.
Oh, yeah.
Wanna be by my side.
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.
And we're back again here in South Carolina tonight.
I tell you that the best part of the show happens during the commercial breaks, and we're able to sort of let our hair down if we had it.
And just kind of talk loosely.
And this has become, as a result of my travels here over the course of the last year and a half, these three appearances we've made here at this particular part of South Carolina, one of my favorite places in the world.
And I'll tell you, it's a great place if you're looking to move and you're sincere.
There is something to be connected with here.
Hunter, I wanted to give you a final word.
We sort of had to rush into that last break without giving you, I think, a proper due.
I want to say this very quickly, though.
If you want to host TPC in your city, that can be done.
We're doing it here tonight.
It can be done elsewhere as well.
But Hunter has been my chaperone this weekend and has shown me the sights and we had a great day.
We just talked about some of the things we learned at the Confederate Museum.
And then, of course, here for this live broadcast this evening, he's taken good care of me.
Had a great lunch today as well.
But I got to share a quick story with Hunter and then we'll give him the final word.
I got into town late last night, came through some inclement weather.
And so when I was here last July, I nearly melted from the heat.
I mean, it was just ungodly.
And it's very, very, very cold now.
And when I was driving in, there was snow on both sides of the interstate.
I mean, it looked like a literal winter wonderland, Winter Wonderland.
The trees were completely encased in snow.
It was beautiful.
And it was frigid.
And so I got into town and I checked into the hotel and I texted Hunter and I said, you know, what's the plan for tomorrow?
I actually called him first and he didn't answer.
And then I texted him.
I said, I'm here now.
What's the plan for tomorrow?
And he texted me back sometime later or called and then texted and said, I'm sorry, I was out in a kayak hunting.
I said, I'm out in a kayak freezing my butt off.
That's what I said.
This is the middle of the night in below-freezing weather in a kayak.
I said, damn, you're hardcore, man.
Beavers are nocturnal.
You got to be there when they're.
Try to get those pelts like my ancestors.
Lewis and Clark.
My mountaineer ancestors.
Hey, you know, being out there in that frigid cold really wakes you up.
It excites the senses.
We're talking about this.
We were discussing that.
Well, we talked about that this way.
That's what made us, man.
I said it.
I've said it many times on this show.
That is the climate that fueled our ingenuity and our creativity.
You had to think and invent ways to survive.
You couldn't be a layabout on the equator where fruit is hanging from the trees every month of the year, and you just go and pick it up.
We had to develop a sense of survival.
And I think that very much played a role in the development of our race and how genius and what we've been able to do.
That is something that's happened over the generations of the centuries that is very unique to the European experience.
Yep.
You know, one thing before I sign off or I get off of here, James, is last time, I think it was November of 2020, I got on here and I had a message, and that was that you all shall live.
And really, when I come on the air, I don't do this.
So if I do have the opportunity to speak to a lot of people, I want to send out a message of what I understand and see happening.
And that is that we are going to live.
We're going to live through this.
But my message today is to be thankful.
Okay, that's my message today.
And Psalms 118, 24 says, this is the day that the Lord has made, and we will rejoice and be glad in it.
And I think if we start out our days like that, it really sets our worldview.
We can look through the world in the correct lens.
A lot of people get discouraged because they see birth rates and demographic change.
And I try to remind people, hey, we're not in a breeding contest here.
We're developing quality people.
And you've got to have thankfulness to have patience.
And then patience leads you, you're able to have more experiences.
And then experiences gives you confidence.
And that's what we want is confidence.
And so in our everyday walk in life, we have to be thankful.
We talked about that today.
We were talking about it.
We sure did have a good conversation that would have been made for radio.
This is exciting times, man.
I'm excited to be here with you.
And you're excited to be here with us.
And what better time to be here than now?
This is cliche, but it's so true.
Strong families make strong nations.
And you can't have families unless you are a man who has the ability to put a woman under his authority, which is where they want to be.
And we talked about this, and this is a cop-out with, I think, a lot of young people that they have to hide their candle under a bushel in order to find a mate or an attractive mate or whatever.
But you really don't.
And I didn't, and you didn't.
Right.
Well, if people are looking for dating advice or something, I'd say, hey, you want to go out with a girl?
Go up and ask her what she wants.
Go say, hey, you want to go here?
You want to go there?
And if she don't want to do it, walk away right then and there.
I mean, you want a girl that's going to follow you.
That's what you want.
And really, a girl will be presented, a woman rather, will be presented to you.
Don't go out chasing them and make that.
Well, but we talked with regards to our wives that they are open to understanding the message.
They are open to being willing partners in.
A sense of authority and confidence with which you present the message to them.
Because, I mean, you know, we do have truth, logic, reason, science, everything else on our side that you could want to have.
So it is sort of a message that sells itself.
But you present it confidently, unapologetically, and they recognize that.
I was talking about my wife today, who I met.
I had started the show before we got married, and we met right as I was running for office.
And, you know, for all these years, every piece of correspondence that's gone out during our quarterly fundraising drive, she has sealed it.
She has stamped it.
She has packaged it.
And this is, you know, she's very much teammate in this endeavor that we do here.
So don't tell me you can't find an attractive, loyal, submissive mother of your children type woman if you have these beliefs.
Right.
And let me take this moment.
I know my wife's going to listen to this later.
I love you.
I love you so much.
Thank you for being a good mother.
Thank you for being the woman of my life.
And I appreciate you.
She's going to listen to this later.
Hey, give it up.
We thought it would be a couple of more minutes.
It was another segment.
But it was a little bit different.
Yeah, I do want to say before we go, a little joke here is, you know, talking about demographic replacement.
That's happening, man.
It's happening to us.
But you've got to remember, James.
The great replacement.
The great replacement.
It ain't no theory.
It's happening.
And everybody sees it.
And it is genocide.
Let's call it what it is.
It is white genocide.
But I'll tell you what, James, here in America, the South, this land, we started out as very few.
And very few we will become again.
But when I was a little boy, my favorite game was Cowboys and Indians.
I was just about to say, we were talking about this today long before the war between the states, the people of South Carolina were living amongst the Indians.
No doubt, man.
And so we'll be in that wilderness again.
We propelled before.
The thing that's stopping us now is our own people.
Right.
Our own people.
That is certainly a novelty.
That's certainly something different than the enemies we've faced in the past.
But our own people and our own churches and in our own communities.
But James.
We talk about today.
They will turn when we can apply more pressure than our enemies.
They'll become true believers in everything that we're espousing here tonight.
Right.
And we can do it.
And it is a.
I knew at some point in my life that the rest of my life would be spent protecting and furthering Western civilization.
Because you were a school teacher.
This is something that we didn't mention.
You were a public school teacher and a private school teacher earlier in your life.
At the oldest Baptist church in the South.
But they were going against the grain.
They were going against our people.
I was going against the grain.
You were going against the grain.
And they were promoting queers and all that stuff.
And you're saying, I'm not going to teach this.
No, no.
So now you have another job.
Hey, guys, who's ever out there, if you're young and trying to start a career, don't be afraid to jump out of something.
Yeah, this was something that was so interesting, what you told me today.
You took a righteous stand at your school, and nobody else stood with you during the public hearing on it, during the public presentation, the faculty debate, the faculty debate.
But then after the fact, after the lights were turned out, all of these teachers, the majority, said, oh, we're with you, Hunter.
We're with you.
But they weren't with you when the shooting was going.
Yeah, and that was a learning experience for me, James.
Well, our people, James, thank you for coming to the state.
The greatest state in the South.
I love South Carolina.
It's a state you can fall in love with and a state you can fall in love in, believe me.
I've had a lot of good times in South Carolina.
I've had another one tonight.
Well, stay tuned, everybody.
More to come.
God bless Dixie.

Decades after Jimmy Carter, Joe Biden picked up where he left off.
With America surrendering to terrorists, Biden's foolish spending is causing inflation, which means more pain of the pump, higher prices on groceries, devaluing your retirement savings when you need it most.
Once was a mistake.
Twice is a disaster.
America needs strong leaders, not weak ones.

Hello, TPC family.
It's James, and I've got to tell you that I sleep better at night knowing that there are organizations like the Conservative Citizens Foundation.
The purpose of the Conservative Citizens Foundation is to promote the principles of limited government, individual liberty, equality before the law, property rights, law and order, judicial restraint, and states' rights, while at the same time, exploring the dangers posed by liberalism to our national interests and cultural institutions.
The Conservative Citizens Foundation also seeks to educate the public on the dangers of extremist ideologies like critical race theory and cultural Marxism.
I've worked with the good people at the Conservative Citizens Foundation for many years, and their work comes with my complete endorsement.
For more information and to keep up with all the latest conservative news headlines, please check out their website, MericaFirst.com.

Get on the show.
Call us on James's Dime at 1-866-986-6397.
Very, very quickly, we've already let him go, but he said something during the break that I'd love for him to share with the audience, and that's with the way in which we present the message.
Very quickly, another word on that, Hunter, how you could present this to your parents and they wouldn't be fucked up, man.
With regards to the political cesspool.
Oh, I know.
Yeah, that's the thing about your show is I was telling you earlier today, hey, if anyone can turn on the political cesspool, and it's family-friendly, you have a way of presenting things that isn't going to turn off the average listener.
And I would be, I have completely apolitical parents.
I would not describe them as that.
My mother, at least, is apolitical.
And my friends are apolitical, and I could turn them on to your show, and they would enjoy it, and it wouldn't turn them off.
So keep doing what you're doing, James.
Well, perhaps, my friend, it is that delicacy in which we present the message that has cost us.
But you don't shy away from anything either.
Well, we love being attacked.
We thrive.
Oh, I've listened to your show a while, and you don't shy away from stuff.
That's what I like about your show.
Well, I'll tell you something that's new here, as you know, Hunter, no stranger to censorship or we, and my default position is to always punch back if we're not punching first.
And I've shared with everyone before, whatever recent hardships dissident leaders have endured was almost certainly first experienced by yours truly, and that goes back to us being banned by PayPal all the way back in 2006.
This was years before others in our movement were being banned by payment processors, way before it was commonplace, banned by Facebook in 2007.
And in 2008, a conference that was TPC sponsored was the first to have its legally binding contract with the hotel arbitrarily canceled because of political pressure.
Used to, a contract was a contract, and you had to honor the contract.
Now, of course, it's commonplace for hotels to cancel before Amrin moved to a state park and before other dissident groups were shut out entirely.
You could have it at a private hotel.
Well, we were the first to endure that injustice.
And so we've been around.
And, of course, more recently, we've been universally blacklisted from receiving online donations.
But thank God we enjoy such difficult challenges.
And it keeps me sharp.
It keeps me on the edge, which is where I need to be.
And we said this in the car today as well.
You can't present yourself as a leader unless you first walk through the fire.
You're either going to be melted or tempered by that heat.
Yeah, and I've heard about James' personal experiences in his life.
And I would say I'm not somebody that goes around shilling for anybody, but you need to support James Edwards.
This guy brings on people that exposes Jewish power and influence.
And let's be real, that is what makes you a target here and now.
One of many reasons, but that certainly is a good thing.
One of many reasons.
But support this man.
I like what he does, and he's a true stalwart.
Well, thank you, Hunter, for that.
I appreciate it.
And what we were talking about, if you're tested, and only through that testing, you can find the answer as to whether or not you're worthy of the support and trust of your audience.
And so we take a great deal in pride looking back at the 18 years in which we have been attacked by hundreds of newspapers and television programs and magazines all training their guns on us that we've set an example as a talk radio broadcast as a media entity that can withstand it.
Now, I don't want to go into the example that we shared today because I want to give them too much credit, but even our enemies recognize.
Right.
And let me say this.
This is a real person.
You can meet him in real life and he treats you like anybody else.
You're going to take over the whole show.
It was going to be one second, maybe two.
Now it's a whole hour.
But you're doing fantastic, especially with this.
I'm just going to say, you know, this is a real guy here.
And James, I just appreciate you being here in South Carolina.
Well, I appreciate the opportunity to come and be with y'all.
And that's the truth.
And, you know, it goes back to adversity breeding greatness.
And it certainly can with the right type of man.
It can inspire one to redouble their efforts.
And with that in mind, I would like to announce that here in this wonderful community that we are in tonight and the people that are here, I have seen a few copies of my book.
That book has become more valuable over the course of the past week because it has now been banned by our publisher.
One of my buddies here gave that to his father-in-law for Christmas.
And the father-in-law loved it.
Yeah, that's speaking to what we were talking about.
Well, one of the gentlemen here tonight actually brought a copy for me to sign, and I was honored to do that.
But I've seen a couple of copies floating around here.
When I wrote the book in 2010, we originally went through the publisher CreateSpace, and CreateSpace has since been bought by Amazon.
And I got an email.
Well, I'll read it to you.
Can I read it to you, ladies and gentlemen?
The email I got from Amazon on Wednesday.
Now, I was preparing to come to South Carolina on Wednesday.
I was not expecting another attack, but there's never a week in which we're not attacked in some way, shape, or form.
But here's the email.
Hello.
We are terminating your account effective immediately.
As part of the termination process, we will close your account.
You'll no longer have access to your account.
This includes editing your title, reviewing your report, and accessing any other information within your account.
Your published title will be removed from sale on Amazon.
Additionally, as per our terms and conditions, you aren't allowed to open a new account.
And I got that email.
But did they give you a reason?
No.
No.
It was pure censorship and abstract violations of terms and services, which, of course, we didn't do.
So I got that email knowing that my book had been banned this week, and I responded with a very short response.
It was, in fact, just a two-word response.
And I sent that in.
And then they emailed me back 24 hours later and said, you will not receive your last royalty check.
So the book, after, you know, and that's interesting.
After 12 years, now we've been banned and deplatformed from everybody and everywhere.
So I guess you could say, well, the only surprise is it took them so long to ban your book from online sales.
But they take it away from Barnes ⁇ Noble.
We don't get a lot of royalties anymore.
That book was written 12 years ago.
Now, the message of the book is evergreen, but the examples from which I was drawing upon when writing the book and giving the examples of how liberals use the R word were from the age in which it was written or the year in which it was written, which was 2010.
So we talk about Obama, McCain, and other things that were in the news at that time.
But the message is still something that can certainly supply people with the keys to unlock the socio-political nuclear bomb that is the R-word, racism, and racist.
And how you fight back again.
I had a guy come up tonight.
Sir, would you mind?
You came up to me tonight and actually quoted a passage from the book.
It was the first thing you said to me.
Could you repeat it?
He came up to me, and the first thing he said was this.
Racist equals white person.
A white person equals racist.
All white people are racist.
All white people will always be racist.
Now, that is something that I wrote.
Now, this is the guy that came up, and the first thing he said before he even told me his name was a quote from my book.
So that's just incredible.
And so anyway, the book has reached people and the book has done a lot of good, but now it's banned.
And so, okay, banning a book that's 12 years old, certainly new readers still come on.
I mean, we still give away copies and we have requests for the book still after more than a decade.
And people were still buying it online through Amazon.
But I was thinking, what would my Confederate ancestors do?
They would fight back.
And so I have had people for years ask me, when are you going to write another book?
But it's very difficult to juggle the full-time job of this radio program with a growing family and all of that.
And when I wrote the book in 2010, my wife was expecting my first daughter had just been born, but most of the book was written before I had started the family with regards to adding children to it.
And it's difficult to add anything else to an overflowing plate.
But I think now, though, that Amazon has cured that.
I think now I was contacted, in fact, by a publisher who said, if you want to write a second edition, we'll publish it in response to this.
And so I think that the appropriate response would be, rather than them be able to stop whatever people were still reading this book 12 years on, would be to write a new book and reach that many more people because thousands of people have read this book, but, you know, it's 12 years old now, so you're not getting that many new readers, although some.
And so how about this?
How about I write a new book and we go to another publisher who has already contacted me.
And the thing about the book is that is a tool.
People will read the book that might not necessarily be listening to the program because you can promote a book in different ways.
And there are a lot more people out there now than there was in 2010.
This is something we talked about today, Hunter.
In 2010, even though this program was six years old at the time, it was still, if I wanted to promote a book like that, where would you go to promote it?
There was only one game in town, and that was this show.
Now there are a lot of podcasts and a lot of streams and a lot of live streams that are talking about these issues.
And it could be a recruitment tool that would bring new people into our audience, and it would be a tool that would reach people outside of our audience.
So I think that the only appropriate response to this censorship attack would be to write a new book and reach thousands of more people than the old book would be reaching if it was still on sale on Amazon.
Do y'all agree with me on that logic?
Hey, y'all, I like your style.
If they throw a weak left jab, you slip it and throw that hard right.
I like that.
Well, we are hard right, are we not?
Yes.
So as we continue to build this parallel society, this is something, but I'll tell you, you need to have the attacks.
It toughens you and it sharpens you.
And if we hadn't been attacked to the extent that we have been over all these years, we wouldn't be here still.
Our attacks have given us life because it's given us reason for people to support us.
And that's that thankfulness I was talking about, James.
And you as a family.
I'm thankful for the attacks.
I'm thankful for our enemies.
I'm thankful for our enemies as well as our friends.
Keep making the same mistakes, and we'll keep doing things right.
And we'll be back with the third hour right after this.
