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, ladies and gentlemen.
As I said, from one lion to the next, from one hero to the next.
Peter Brimelow in the first hour.
Now, Jared Taylor, editor of American Renaissance, author of the groundbreaking book, Paved with Good Intentions, The Failure of Race Relations in Contemporary America.
That was back in the early 90s.
Peter and I were just saying the early 90s felt like the 50s compared to where we're at today.
And he's going to be on to talk with us about current events, future events, and even one particular past event.
But let's first say hello to him.
Jared, welcome back to the show.
It's always great to have you on, and you've been on a lot.
Thank you so much, James.
Always a pleasure and always an honor.
Entirely ours, as I always tell you.
But I got to tell you one more thing.
You know, Peter was on with us in the first hour.
He stuck around.
He said he's going to stick around and listen.
He heard you were coming up.
He's listening now.
He wanted me to tell you hello.
And so that message has now been delivered from one friend to another.
Wow.
Well, glad to have that message.
And of course, if he's listening, my very best to you, Peter.
Two men who have shared scars and shared the trenches and shared their share of attacks.
And the attacks never seemingly end.
They only escalate.
They get a little more vicious.
But Jared, I don't want to spend a lot of time on this, but I do want to spend a little bit of time because it's interesting, if nothing else.
But a couple of weeks ago, you and I were talking and you told me about this ambitious itinerary to Europe.
And I was listening about all the places you were going to be going to to visit and all of the people you were going to be speaking to.
And I got to tell you, my eyes widened and my mouth watered.
Give us 30 seconds on some of the stops you were going to make and some of the things you were going to be doing.
I was going to, first of all, be at the Skanza Forum.
That was a great meeting, I understand.
Some of the most active activists and some of the wisest thinkers of our movement were there.
This is something that's organized by Frodie Midyord of one of our Norwegian comrades.
And oh, I won't go into all the list of people who are going to be there, but you can look him up.
And it was a great conference.
I was supposed to be the closer.
And I was unable to attend that.
And then I was going to go to the Netherlands.
And I was going to meet several people whose names I will not divulge publicly because it might be an embarrassment to them.
And I was going to give a talk to a group there.
Then I was going to go to Brussels and give a talk in Brussels and then another talk in Antwerp.
And then, this is really one of the big events on the itinerary.
I was going to fly down to the south of France and visit the chateau where Renault Camus lives.
Our well-tuned in listeners no doubt know that he is the wise and old elder statesman Frenchman who came up with the grand replacement Le Grand Rom Placement, as he puts it.
He has been active in protecting Europe for decades and decades now.
He has cancer and I'm not sure how many more years he has on this planet.
And that was really going to be the highlight of my trip.
After having interviewed and done podcasts with about four or five people in Tallinn, Estonia, where the Sconza Forum was going to be, also in Holland, also in Belgium.
He and I were going to have a conversation in French, and then I was going to record a conversation in English.
And so all that went completely to heck.
And then after that, I was going to drive to Lausanne, Switzerland, and give another talk in French to a group there.
So I had a full schedule.
You had a full schedule.
And I was looking at some of the pictures of Estonia, that medieval capital city that they have there, and thinking, my God, what a wonderful experience it would have been to have been there.
You had all of these trips laid out.
That does not just fall into place.
That takes months and months of planning and preparation.
And then you got on the plane, and you got on the plane and you embarked on your trip.
And what happened next?
I was supposed to change planes in Zurich, Switzerland for Tallinn, Estonia.
And lo and behold, I was called out of line by a very nice, very nice Swiss customs lady.
And she said, there seems to be a bit of a problem here.
I'm sure we can take care of it, and you will not miss your plot.
You miss your flight.
Well, as soon as I heard that, I thought she was probably wrong.
You better.
Because this had happened to me before.
It makes me sound like an idiot.
But then she took me to a windowless room where the police authorities informed me that I was banned from the entire 27-member Schengen area.
Now, as I say, this is not the first time.
I was on my way to yet another Scansa Forum.
This is back in 2019.
And the Swiss told me that there was an order out from the government of Poland saying that I was persona non-grata in Poland.
And because there are no border controls within the 27-member contiguous countries that are part of this Schengen group, in order to keep me out of Poland, keep me from poisoning the air, overthrowing the regime, they had to keep me out of the entire 27-member area.
But they said it's a three-year ban.
And so the three years were up.
I felt sure both the Poles and the Swiss could count to three.
And during that time, I had not set foot in Poland.
I hadn't even told a Polish joke.
So I thought the Poles would have absolutely no reason to want to keep me out.
But lo and behold, I guess somebody is keeping an eye on me and decided, boy, this guy is just as bad as ever.
We're going to extend his ban by two years.
And you don't get a notification when this happens.
This isn't like they inform you that, hey, well, you actually just upped your ban a couple of years.
You just find out when you get there.
There's no way to find out.
Well, you know, it turns out there may have been.
There is this obscure website in Polish, and you cruise around in that.
And apparently, if you pay a stamp tax and have a representative in Poland on your behalf write to the Ministry of Foreigners, you may or may not get an answer as to whether you're banned or not.
Now, it doesn't seem to me that there's any way that I can find out why I'm banned.
I have a suspicion as to why that is.
When I was in Poland in 2018, I talked to a Catholic national group called All Polish Youth.
They are a perfectly above-board, perfectly legal and patriotic, not the least bit anything illegal about them.
Why on earth my having spoken to them would be a cause for alarm.
I do not know, but it was the very same month when I spoke to all Polish youth that apparently the ban went into effect.
Now, I never had any contact with Polish authorities.
Based nations, that can surprise you.
I believe I remember based Hungary with Viktor Orban turning away Bill Regnery some years ago in a similar manner.
And then Poland, you know, Poland, I remember covering it on this program.
The parliament of Poland actually coronated Jesus Christ as king of the nation.
It was Poland that gave you the problem and not one of the more left-leaning members of the Schengen alignment.
And as I say, Polish youth, all Polish youth, is a very Catholic organization.
They begin every meeting with prayers.
They end every meeting with prayers.
They absolutely eschew any kind of illegality, any kind of illegality.
And their idea is that they want Polish children to be brought up as patriotic Poles and Christians.
That is their goal.
And I have spoken to, between you and me, rather more rowdy groups than that, but it was the Poles who decided that that was beyond the pain.
So here I am.
Now, my two-year ban is a turn.
If they don't try to extend my two-year ban, it'll be up in September.
But I don't think I'm just going to roll them bones and show up in the shaming group and see if I get turned back again.
We'll have to do better than that after a couple of strikes.
But strike three and we're out.
We'll be back with Jared Taylor from MRIn.com.
A couple of more questions about this experience, and we're going to move on to more happy topics.

You know, we're obviously quite proud of the fact, and it's easy to know that we are because we mention it in just about every broadcast, the longevity of this particular program, 19 years now.
And over those 19 years, there has not been a single guest who has appeared more frequently than the one we have right now, and for good reason, Jared Taylor of American Renaissance and Ren.com.
We have so much we want to cover with Jared tonight, and we're going to get to that in very short order.
I just want to mop up what we were talking about in the opening segment there.
And that is, of course, he had this beautiful and ambitious itinerary that was scuttled for really no reason.
I mean, obviously, had Jared been a Muslim, for instance, who had snuck in with the intent to do harm, he would have had far less of a burden than he did as, well, who he is, which is, of course, a genteel truth teller, a gentleman, a cavalier from Virginia.
And he got turned away.
Now, I guess, Jared, this could be instructive for anybody in our audience who may face similar circumstances, should they be traveling to Europe and turned away.
What happened after you were informed that indeed you were not going to be accepted beyond the customs area of the airport?
Did you get a cell for the night?
Or what happens then?
No.
The next plane was leaving in about four hours.
So they stuck it on me and stuck me on it and back I went.
So all told, I spent about 24 hours either sitting on an airplane or sitting in a windowless cell.
So the only bit of Europe I saw was what I managed to see out the window.
Now, the first time I was turned back at Zurich Airport, I have bad luck with that airport.
They did have to hold me overnight.
And they stuck me in a kind of, oh, it's hard to describe.
It's a bunch of little, oh, they're like benches that are separated by curtains.
It's like a whole bunch of examining rooms in a hospital, except not as big.
And they stuck me in there with various other undesirables that they were keeping an eye on.
And that's when I went back to the United States after I spent the night.
So they do what they need to make sure you don't go anywhere they don't want you to go.
Now, a real disadvantage with this is when they put one of these stamps in your passport, they make a special indication on it that says that I was rejected, sent back.
And I tell you, I went to Ireland a couple of months ago, and they saw that stamp.
Now, Ireland is not part of the Schengen group, but they said, oh, why were you rejected from Zurich Airport back in 2009?
I've heard this story.
What did you say?
Yes.
I said, I honestly said, I don't know.
Now, do you think they believe you if you say that?
They said, well, it's the truth.
And the thing is, the thing is, ordinarily, an American who goes into Ireland gets an automatic three months legal stay.
Well, they wanted me to show proof that I had a flight back out of Ireland, and they put a special visa in my passport that said, you're allowed only to stay until your return flight.
Now, yes.
I got to say, Jared, this is offensive because as a man who knows you and has known you for a long time, anybody who's ever met you would know the injustice of all of this.
And I don't like to do the whining thing.
Oh, woe is me.
But at the same time, let's just get frank here.
This is crazy.
Now, in a way, you can't blame the Irish.
They couldn't go into the Schengen system and understand why somebody wanted me out.
But now, I have two of these rejected by Schengen black marks in my passport.
To me, it's like walking into a police station with two shiners and complaining of being attacked or attacking.
I don't know.
It is a very bad thing.
I haven't tried to cross a border since then.
But yikes, people are going to look at that and say, wow, you are either a very illegal guy or awfully stupid trying to go back to Schengen when you were banned.
They're going to look you up and down and say, this guy looks like trouble.
They are.
Well, now, when they kick you out, obviously they don't reimburse you for all of the connecting flights you would have missed upon the rest of your travels that were going to be over a period of a couple of weeks.
Do they comp the return flight for you?
Well, at least I didn't pay extra for it, but a simple round trip to Zurich would have been less than my flight over to Europe and back because I was coming back from Zurich rather than Tallinn.
And also, I had internal flights.
Silly me, they were non-reimbursable.
And I had a couple of hotel rooms that were also non-reimbursable.
So I was out a lot of dough and nothing to show for it.
And hundreds of people who I stood up.
It's really, really an embarrassing, awful thing.
But I'm glad to report that there was one French journalist publication that looked into what happened, and they did a very nice write-up.
It's available only in French.
But they interviewed me, and they were shocked by this, and they were very sympathetic, and they wrote a standard write-up, a very straight write-up saying, this is how the Schengen Group keeps, let's see, what do they call it?
They call it worrisome journalists out of the country.
They call me a journalist.
Oh, wow.
We've been called worse than that, have we not?
We sure have.
We sure have.
So that's the one medium that has taken some interest in my plight.
But yeah, it's infuriating.
It's outrageous.
And the last time this happened, I called the State Department.
I said, look, Poland's supposed to be an allied country.
They're mistreating me.
They're bouncing me from 27 different countries and they wouldn't even tell me why.
And the U.S. State Department looked into it, and they got back to me and said, this is a decision by a foreign government.
There's nothing we can do about it.
Of course, if I were a tattooed, pot-smoking, lesbian, Negress basketball player, I think they would have thought of something to do.
Oh, they can figure it out then, can they not?
They'll do prisoner exchanges.
It'll be the biggest news story in the country, off and on, intermittently for months.
That's right.
But me, whatever happened to her.
Well, and she had broken a law.
I hadn't broken any laws.
This is completely out of the blue.
No one.
You didn't have a pound of pot in your suitcase.
No, no.
I didn't even have a pound of potatoes.
No, nothing at all.
No contraband, no, nothing.
So anyway, that's the end of this unhappy story.
Yeah, we want to move on from this.
We've already spent a little more time than I had intended, but I think people need to know that, you know, and I think it ties into Peter Brimlow.
You two guys, who I am fortunate enough to legitimately be able to call you friends, I look at you and I say, these are the guys that had it made.
These guys didn't need the cause.
They've done more for us than the cause has done for them.
They would have had all the nice cocktail parties.
They would have had a lot of money.
They wouldn't have had all of the headache.
But still, they sacrificed.
And in sacrificing, you've done, and you and Peter, I think, I mean, there are others who have done varying degrees of good.
But you're hard-pressed to say, who's done more than Peter Brimlow and Jared Taylor?
I mean, you've got to be up, you're at the very top.
And so, you know, for that, we thank you.
Oh, James, there are huge rewards.
How else would I have gotten to know somebody like you or Sam Dixon?
I'm serious.
And the greatest reward.
Yes, the greatest reward, the greatest reward is knowing that I'm doing my duty.
That is a wonderful feeling.
I can go to bed at night and I can say to myself, and I'm sure when you go to bed at night, no matter how hard it's been, no matter tough, you feel the same way.
I'd have had more money and had a lot less stress, but I'll tell you, there's nothing.
This is the truth.
And what Jared is talking about is absolutely true.
And believe me, for anybody who regularly appears on this program, they mean it.
I mean it.
He means it.
To live a life worth living is worth more than comfort and not being embattled and having a little bit more money.
There is nothing I wanted to do more than involve myself in this cause.
And there's nothing that I could have done better.
There's nothing much else I wanted to do.
This is it.
This was it for me.
And once it got into my blood, I always wanted to find ways to apply myself.
And this is it.
And to know people who share in this struggle, it is a fraternity.
It is a band of brothers, not to use the term of that HBO docuseries.
But there is something.
There are rewards.
Folks, don't let me lead you astray.
There are rewards that are far and beyond the temporal rewards that most people believe that one must attain on this very short period that we have in life.
But there are rewards, and we have won them.
Well, James, as I recall, the last time you spoke at an American Renaissance conference, I believe the title of your talk was The Best Decision I Ever Made.
You remember?
That is it.
That is right.
Yes.
Well, it was.
It was then, and it still is.
That was about seven years.
Of course, I remember that because it was the spring of 2016 when we were in the furnace of our tribulation vis-a-vis our association with the Real or Imagine with the Donald Trump campaign that was coming out right after the interview we had with Donald Trump Jr.
And yeah, anyway, no, it is the best.
I mean, we're digressing here a little bit.
I mean, it is worth doing, and we know the rewards.
People who are in this cause know the rewards.
But for people outside, you're thinking, wow, you sacrificed all of the comforts that you would have had.
There is a higher calling than that.
And Jared has answered it.
As have you.
And have I.
And as have Peter.
I mean, Peter's under a great attack right now.
I mean, you know, being banned from travel, being deplatformed from social media or credit card processors.
I mean, that's not, you know, being attacked by the Attorney General of New York is certainly a next level type of thing.
But, hey, Jared, we have seconds remaining.
Actually, we don't even have that.
I have the music playing now.
I hear it very faintly in my headset.
When we come back, we're going to shift gears.
We're going to talk to Jared about current events.
And then we're going to tell you about a conference that you might want to consider attending, another one.
This one's coming up in August, just a little bit west of Nashville.
Stay tuned.
Exposing corruption.
Informing citizens.
Pursuing liberty.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
USA News.
I'm Jerry Barmash.
Sources close to the debt ceiling talk say it's possible a deal can still be reached today.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and President Biden were expected to speak by phone this evening, CNN reported.
A final sticking point is work requirements for social programs, CNN said.
McCarthy noted earlier in the day that there has been progress in efforts to raise the debt ceiling before defaulting on June 5th.
The Texas House has decided to impeach Attorney General Ken Paxson.
The vote was 121 to 23, with Paxson now suspended from office pending a Senate trial.
John Smithy is a Republican member of the Texas House.
I'm not here to defend Ken Paxton.
And what you're being asked to do today is to impeach without evidence.
It is all rumor.
It is all innuendo.
It is all speculation.
The Republican-led House General Investigating Committee filed 20 articles of impeachment against Paxson with allegations ranging from disregard of official duty to bribery and obstruction of justice.
Vice President Kamala Harris made history today.
Vice President Harris is the first woman to deliver the commencement address at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
Harris told the graduates that they are entering a world filled with threats to global security and stability.
Cadets, global security and global prosperity depend on the leadership of the United States of America.
And a strong America remains indispensable to the world.
This July will mark the 47th anniversary that women were first admitted to West Point.
I'm John Schaefer.
Many of the expected 10 million travelers by air have already reached their weekend destination.
The TSA says recent changes should lead to a smoother check-in, but they urge people to arrive two hours before departure.
This is USA News.
Let's see, if something costs less, but people are happier with it.
That sounds like something to look into, and that's MetaShare.
Maybe you've heard switching to MetaShare to pay for healthcare can save the typical family 500 bucks a month, and that's huge.
But it's also true that people are way more satisfied after making the switch, too.
The customer satisfaction rate for MetaShare is double that of the typical health insurance plan.
Double.
MetaShare works.
It's been around for more than a quarter century, and members have shared more than $3 billion of each other's bills.
People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide PPO network.
So, yeah, you can save a ton and like it better.
Imagine being happy with how you're taking care of your health care.
So, if you're self-employed or part of the gig economy, or you just want to plan you're happy with, you can call right now and get a price within two minutes.
Very, very smart use of two minutes.
Here's the number you need: 833-34-Bible.
That's 833-34-Bible.
833-34-BIBLE.
And welcome back, everybody, with Jared Taylor.
I'm James Edwards, and we continue on right now.
I was going to ask Jared in the previous segment to give us a little sneak peek about what he would have been speaking about in his various stops in Europe had he been able to get out of the airport.
But alas, that was not meant to be.
But listen, you actually don't even need to know that.
If you've ever been to an American Renaissance conference, I believe you probably have an idea.
And if you have not been to an American Renaissance conference, you can rectify that gross misallocation of your time by attending the next one, which will be coming up in August.
We'll give you a little bit more information about that before this hour ends.
But you can find out for yourself at amran.com.
But first, I want to talk to Jared.
We're going to do a quick hit, rapid fire, fast-as-we-can-go segment here on different topics that are in the news right now.
I'll lob a coach pitch type of loft to Jared, and we'll let him hit it out of the park.
How does that sound to you, Jared?
Uh-oh.
Yeah, a fat one right across the plate.
It's coming your way right now.
So we'll cover these as quickly as we can, and we'll have a little fun with it.
So the proliferation of non-white white supremacists.
The media is so desperate for somebody like us to act out that and they've been deprived of that.
So they continue to cast non-whites in the roles that they would wish us to have.
We saw that a couple of weeks ago in Texas with Mauricio Garcia.
Now, they tried that some years ago with George Zimmerman, which was the first time I ever heard the term white Hispanic.
Perhaps it existed before then, but that was the first time.
And of course, justice was served there.
I didn't think he was guilty of murder, and the courts agreed.
But nevertheless, Mauricio Garcio was a white supremacist.
And now you have the situation in Washington, D.C. One of our friends from Effingham, Illinois sent me an article, if I'm pronouncing this correctly, Cy Var Sheath Kendula.
This doesn't sound Anglo-Saxon to me.
They're calling him a white supremacist.
Now, this is obviously a guy who is not white, but who drove an empty U-Haul into one of the barriers, somewhat close to the White House, I guess, relatively close anyway.
Not close enough to cause any mortal threat to anybody inside.
But NBC, MSNBC, CNN, The Washington Post, and other media certainly were able to show the evil Nazi flag there sprawled on the pavement for all to see.
It still looked to have all the creases as if it were just brought out of the box.
They didn't have the time, though, to show you a picture of the suspect himself at the time, who they were calling a white supremacist.
So we've seen this, Jared.
What are your takes on these stories?
No, it's quite astonishing.
And to me, it's fascinating the way not only they call this guy white supremacist.
He did.
He apparently did have a Nazi flag.
But he's obviously not white.
You've seen photographs of him later on.
And then the other non-white white supremacist that they love to talk about is Enrique Tario.
He's the leader of the Proud Boys.
He's from Cuba.
He's clearly black.
But they say that this guy, too, is a white supremacist.
But it's like anything else these days.
The demand for white supremacists far outstrips the supply.
It's like racism.
That's why you have all these race hoaxes.
People think, oh, we've got to prove that we are an oppressed people, so they'll gin up some race hoax.
Well, the Biden administration and all the people that were supposed to look up to in admirer tell us that white supremacy and terrorism are a terrible threat.
And so, yep, they gin up these phony things, and then there's some crazy people that fall for it, obviously goofballs, and they say, look, look, another white supremacist.
But what this guy, what this guy actually stands for is very difficult to say.
Apparently, he thought he was going to march into the White House and, if need be, kill Joe Biden and take control.
Apparently, he admired Adolf Hitler because he was a strong leader.
So, what do you make of this?
Well, once again, white supremacy is on the loose.
Well, we saw that with Mauricio Garcia in that suburb of Dallas last month, reportedly, and it didn't look entirely convincingly real to me, but we'll take it at face value that he had a swastika tattoo.
But he also had a Black Panther sort of patch or tattoo as well.
So I don't know if this was some sort of, you know, any sort of rebellious calls goes type of thing, but he was a white supremacist too, even though he's obviously non-white.
And we saw it in Memphis where we had the five black police officers who beat to death this black man in Memphis back earlier this year.
And they too were, if not white supremacists, at least under the influence of white supremacy.
Exactly, exactly.
Whenever a non-white person does something which if a white person had done, it would be called racist, then the non-white perpetrator is an agent of white supremacy.
Yes, indeed.
Well, and the other thing is, you know, the ADL, the ADL keeps this list of white supremacist violence.
And I can assure you that Mauricio Garcia and this unpronounceable guy and Enrico Tario, anything that they ever get convicted of, that's going to go into the category of white supremacist violence because they are absolutely.
That's right.
No, they're starved for it.
They need it so bad, but they can't find it from the people who they believe should be doing it.
And so this is what you got.
Okay, so that being said, how about this?
The NAACP issuing a travel warning against the state of Florida.
And you've seen this in the past.
Like, you know, the State Department may say, it might not be a good idea to travel to Mogadishu.
They won't list the reasons, but we can pretty much surmise.
But you've got a similar thing, the NAACP issuing a travel warning against the state of Florida.
And I believe some LGBT, I'm trying to get all the letters right, LGBTQIA plus have issued a similar warning against traveling to the state of Florida.
It may not be safe for them to visit Ron DeSantis.
That's right.
That's right.
Well, LULAC has done the same thing.
League of United, well, it's League of United Latin American Citizens.
They used to be a group for citizens.
Now they just stick up for illegals all the time.
But in any case, they say it is dangerous for Hispanics, legal or not.
This hysteria is just remarkable.
As a spokesman for the governor said about the NAACP thing, she says, this is a stunt.
We have record tourism, and we are not the least bit worried.
In effect, she didn't use these terms, but the NAACP can stick it in their ear.
so i was glad to see yeah no that's that's good But when I see these things that are so outlandish and so far removed from reality, I ask myself, do they, and I wonder, do they really believe that, or is it just a gambit?
You know, I think they do.
I think they do.
Yes, I think they believe that.
Well, everybody calls me naive, James, and you may too.
But I think most people are not capable of saying something over and over and over that they don't honestly believe.
Most people's brains are not put together that way.
I think there are some people like that who are.
Bill Clinton is one who comes to mind.
A few others, I think Nancy Pelosi probably is capable of saying things she knows are completely untrue.
But most people, I mean, it's an effort for you to get up in the morning, look yourself in the mirror, and go out and say something you know is untrue and say it five times a day.
So I think when black people, when black people look at what Ron DeSantis has tried to get rid of critical race theory in schools, they truly believe that this is a harbinger of trying to bring back Jim Crow or oppression of black people, taking away their civil rights.
I think they probably genuinely believe that, just the way, just the way Joe Biden says MAGA Republicans are a threat to the Republic.
I think he probably believes that if he believes anything.
You know, I don't know, Jared.
First of all, I don't know if Joe Biden knows what planet he's on, but I don't think he could possibly believe that if he has a room temperature arguing, I think Joe Biden's just saying what he's told to say.
He's only the president.
He's not calling the shots here.
But if he really does believe that, we've got a big, big problem.
Well, we have big problems.
I think there are problems.
But that's for sure.
Look at all the people from National Public Radio and New York Times, Washington Post, MSNBC on down who say that January 6th was an insurrection.
But how can they at once believe that but say that when another group is actively burning down city blocks and sacking cities in the case of Seattle and calling that their own republic for a few weeks, that's a peaceful protest, but what happened on January 6th is a violent insurrection.
Do you believe that they can really believe that?
I think they can.
And they believe that because they are thinking in terms of motives.
They think that all the people who are out looting and burning and demonstrating and screaming for Black Lives Matter, they were sincere.
They were on the side of the angels.
Maybe a few of them got out of hand, but they were the good guys.
Whereas anybody who supported Donald Trump, first of all, and anybody who thought that the election was stolen, these people are obviously pure evil.
And anything they were attempting to do was a profound threat to our democratic institutions.
I think they believe that.
I think they really do.
They very well might.
I mean, I can't do a brain transplant.
I don't know.
They wouldn't be honest if I asked them, but I don't know.
I mean, you could very well be right.
It seems a lot to imagine that they can be that far gone, but I guess they are.
This is a very interesting time in which we live.
We'll be back.
One more segment.
Has it already gone that fast?
Three segments with Jared Taylor.
We're going to tell you about the upcoming American conference.
And one more thing that you don't want to miss.
Stay tuned.

Why does the left lie constantly?
Because they get spiritual power from lying.
The lies come from Satan, the father of lies.
John 8, 44.
Here's how the political lying process works: Satan provides the beast with a lie.
Then the more they use the lie, the more spiritual power they get.
Look, the media is a lie multiplier, and this multiplication gives more evil spiritual power to the beast.
And that can overwhelm and even deceive the body of Christ, especially when the body is being disobedient to the head.
The churches today are incorporated, so they're subordinate to human government.
They obey the beast and do nothing to restore our national relationship with God.
And the government shall be on his shoulders.
Isaiah 9, 6.
That verse is not for the present-day church.
Rather, it is for the end time church, the body of the line of Judah.
A message from Christ Kingdom Ministries.
All right.
Welcome back, everybody.
Jared Taylor and I yakking during the commercial break and almost talked straight through to the program itself, the on-air segment.
I want to focus this segment on the upcoming American Renaissance Conference.
It's coming up in August, a little bit west of Nashville.
If you can get to Nashville, you can get to the American Renaissance Conference.
And I know a lot of people, it's always a packed house.
The fire marshal has to say, no more people.
We can't have any more people.
They stuff it to the gills.
And for good reason, we'll talk about that in just a moment.
But before we do that, Jared Taylor was actually in the news.
He's no stranger to making news, of course, but he was in the news again this week.
A Fox News article.
This again from our friend in Illinois who informed me of this.
But a Fox article, I laugh about this a little bit, but I'll read here from the top of the piece.
The Biden administration is doling out taxpayer money through an anti-terrorism grant initiative to identify basically narrative wheels.
And so you have what we call the pyramid of hate.
Jared actually has what they actually called it.
But there's four tiers to this pyramid.
And it says here that the Biden administration has awarded 80 grants totaling just under $40 million.
The lowest grant was for $85,000.
Now, give me a grant for $85,000 and I'll win you something.
That's money I can win with.
That's more money than we've ever had.
$85,000.
The highest was over $1.1 million, but the median was around $442,000.
But the particular study that was granted by the Biden administration, which is to say it was granted by taxpayer funds, was an amount of $352,109 to draw on the expertise of the University of Dayton faculty to fight domestic violence, extremism, and hate movements.
And for $352,000.
Jared, let me first ask you, what could you do with $350,000?
Oh, dear me.
Oh, dear me.
Could you do more than what Dayton did?
I'd hire three more men.
I think that's probably more than they did.
But let's talk about this lovely pyramid.
Well, let's look at it.
Let's look at it.
So, I mean, you know, first of all, one of the staff writers for Jared's American Renaissance, Gregory Hood.
Gregory was on with us earlier in May, I think the first week of this month.
And he's the best writer in the entire movement.
I mean, that's not hyperbole.
That's not over the top.
He's fantastic.
You give me one Gregory Hood.
That's worth more than this entire study.
But I'm looking at this.
And so the University of Dayton, they received $350,000 from the Biden administration to do this study.
And they came up with this pyramid.
And it has four tiers, one, two, three, and four.
And Jared landed on the third tier of this pyramid.
I don't even, I'm looking at the icons of the organizations affiliated with the insignias there at the fourth year.
I don't know any of them.
I don't even know if they really exist or if they're made up or if they're whatever.
But I see Jared there on the third tier.
Yes, I was thinking, you know, the pinnacle, the pinnacle of hate, the fourth tier.
These are the people who, I suppose, they think they're bomb throwers.
They're just digging the grave of democracy and all of mankind is going to perish if they give the chance.
But I don't recognize any of those symbols either.
But I'm on the third tier.
I'm the next to the top, next to the worst, along with, what do you got, Daily Stormer, and I think we've got Stormfront and looks like National Policy Institute.
And oh, this looks like, who is that bunch?
The identitarians in Europe.
And then they've got an outright swastika.
Oh, and yeah, an outright swastika.
I don't know whose group that is.
And then there is AIM, the American Identity Movement.
We are pretty doggone dangerous.
But, you know, we are just a step above Prager University, Breitbart, Quillette, the MAGA Movement.
And then at the very base, now they call this, they call this the, let's see, they call it the pyramid of far-right radicalization.
So you start at the bottom with the Republican Party, the National Rival Association, and Fox News Heritage Foundation, and the John Birch Society.
And then, all of a sudden, you might be sucked into Quillette, Prager U.
Then you're going to get sucked into American Renaissance.
And then, off the chart, wow, you are a bomb thrower.
And so, to me, the idea of all of this that so strikes me, it's called the Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention Grant Program.
And they seem to think that the Republican Party, that is like smoking marijuana.
Uh-oh, that's pretty bad.
And before you know it, you're going to be shooting up heroin.
You're going to be dying of fentanyl.
You're going to be on crack cocaine, and you're going to be menace to yourself and others.
But it starts with the Republicans and with Fox News.
And yes, they got $300,000.
This is all part of their grant application process.
This stuff obviously is using taxpayer money to demonize political opponents and people who are not on the plantation psychologically.
It's really an outrageous thing.
And I say hats off to Fox News for actually reporting this because they are a gateway drug.
You start watching.
Yeah, you start watching Fox News, and the next thing you know, boy, oh boy, you're going to be sig hiling around your goose stepping around your living room and sigh hiling the police.
Boy, they've got it figured out.
And they got millions and millions to spend doing it.
$40 million they've spent on all of this stuff.
It's incredible.
Now, apparently, this was a program that Obama had started, and then Donald Trump said the heck with this, and he stopped it.
And this just goes to show you politics matters.
A lot of people say it doesn't make any difference who runs the show.
It does make a difference.
Not except Donald Trump?
Yes, sir.
No, no, no.
I was going to add, I'll segue very quickly because we've got to plug Amrien.
We're running out of time.
I'm going to go the full three hours with either you or Peter, and we still wouldn't have had enough time.
But yes, I would have loved to have tweeted this.
Normally, when we cover a story like this, I say go to my Twitter handle at James Edwards DPC and you can read it for yourself.
I can't do that anymore because I've been banned.
But this was a Department of Homeland Security.
It was a Biden administration initiative.
DHS was sort of running it.
But you've got all these millions of dollars.
This particular study was $350,000.
I look at $350,000.
That's like years of work here in DPC.
They would have funded us for years.
And the best they got from that was this pyramid that says the Christian Broadcasting Network leads you to Prakrit University, which leads you to American Renaissance, which leads you to blowing up things, I guess.
That's right.
But that's where we're at.
So, anyway, but maybe you can find it somewhere else.
Let's see.
The title of the article here at Foxnews.com is University Program Linking Christians, Republicans to Nazis Granted DHS funds under anti-terror initiative.
Maybe you can find it if you look for it.
I wish I could tweet it for you, but I can't.
Anyway.
Anti-terror.
Anti-terror.
Now, you'll be there next year.
You keep broadcasting.
I know.
I was jealous.
I've been denounced by Congress, but I didn't make this pyramid.
Which, by the way, when I was denounced by Congress, I saw that immediately.
I said, you know what?
This is a great thing.
This is an honor.
I can't wait to tell my audience about this because we want to be separated from these people.
But still, it does cause you harm.
It causes you harm.
Jared, you can't even go to Europe now because of stuff like this.
And this is why, at the end of the day, you can't is because of nonsense, of course.
But nevertheless, this is where we're at.
And that was in the news here just this last couple of days.
Give me one minute on this because we're only going to have a couple of minutes for the Amerin conference.
But DeSantis now, this was in Florida with the travel ban.
You can't go to Florida if you're NAACP.
It says you can't go to Florida.
DeSantis Trump, 30 seconds.
DeSantis launched this week on Twitter.
That was something.
It didn't really go as planned.
A lot of technical difficulties.
But you're a white advocate, Trump or DeSantis, who's your horse.
30 seconds.
Oh, boy.
I'm going to flop for DeSantis.
Really?
Yep, I'm not all that happy with him, but he would be my boy.
I think Donald Trump, Donald Trump, will gin up such a tremendous amount of opposition.
Every attempt to steal, to make things go wrong.
Now, DeSantis will gin up opposition, too, but I think DeSantis could win.
I think Trump would have a harder time watching.
Now, DeSantis could win.
I think my opinion is so rare that I disagree with Jared Taylor, but my opinion is we're beyond conventional conservatism.
I like all the things that DeSantis has done in Florida, don't get me wrong, but I like Trump as a chaos candidate.
makes the left overreact and we need a complete abderman of the realm.
We need to be gone from America and we need to be thinking post-America and Trump best helps a secession type of scenario.
Well, I don't disagree with that either.
I don't have a strong preference for DeSantis.
I still have this naive sense that the guy at the top can make some difference, but you're right.
If Donald Trump were actually running, win or lose, win or lose, he would stir the pot into such a froth that anything could happen.
Well, I think Trump has a better chance of winning the primary and DeSantis has a better chance of winning the general, and that's a paradox.
But in any event, we'll see what happens there to the extent we have a dog in that fight.
Jared, two minutes remaining.
I intended to go a whole segment on this.
August 11th to the 13th, if I'm not mistaken, Montgomery Middle State Park is the place to be a little bit west of Nashville.
What's going on?
Well, first of all, none other than the host of the political cesspool, James Edwards himself is going to be one of our featured speakers.
It's a down year for Amrin, folks, believe me.
That Edwards guy is speaking.
Oh, by no means, by no means.
James Edwards is one of the heroes of our movement.
And I'm really excited about two Europeans we've got speaking.
Dries van Lagenhove.
Probably your listeners don't know much about him, but he's the youngest member ever to be elected to the Belgian parliament.
He started this really influential youth group called Schield and Vrinden.
And he is a young, dynamic, energetic guy.
I think he is really the future of the European movement.
Also coming from Europe is Ruben Callup.
He is also a parliamentarian.
And he's from Thallin, Estonia, another great guy.
He has spoken by video before.
It'd be great to have him in person.
And of course, Gregory Hood, as you say, I think he's the best writer in our movement.
And I think he's pretty damn close to being the best speaker, too.
He's really a genius in his own way.
Gregory Hood is great.
Absolutely great.
And in addition to that, we have just announced Stephen McNallen.
He is also a very powerful, charismatic speaker.
He started the Asatru Folk Assembly.
He is about as wide awake on a race as anybody you're ever going to find anywhere.
And I'm delighted that he will be here.
That'll be his first time behind the Amerin podium.
And I think that'll be great.
Of course, we will have your friend and mine, Sam Dixon.
He needs no introduction.
And the Canadian, yes, the Canadian academic Ricardo Duchesne.
And we've got another slot we're working on for somebody even more exciting.
So you can imagine it.
Be there or be square.
That is, I was going to ask you, do you think the left is acting out because they are so powerful or because they are vulnerable?
You'll have to find the answer for that yourself, ladies and gentlemen, at the 2023 American Renaissance Conference.
It is coming up sooner than you know in August.
Amran.com.
You can't miss the flyer there, the click of the link for the conference, August 11th to the 13th.
If you want to hang out with that rogues gallery that Jared just detailed, you can do it, but you got to sign up tonight.
