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, folks, one hitmaker after another tonight here on TPC joining us now, again making his debut appearance on the program is Ed Bradeau.
And Ed is a guy who I have been following for the last few weeks.
I found out about his book, The War on Whites, how hating white people became the new national sport.
And I was thinking to myself, we've got to get this guy on the show.
This is incredible, especially for a guy of his background to have written a book such as this.
This is a guy we need to be looking into.
And then I was talking with Ed during the long top of the hour news break about that fact.
And it just so happened, perhaps by divine providence or some sort of serendipity, that I received in the mail a hand-signed copy of the book from Ed Bradeau himself.
It just couldn't have been more of a wonderful coincidence.
And so here he is now making his debut on the program, a man who, again, has pinned the number one Amazon best-selling book, The War on Whites, How Hating White People Became the New National Sport.
Ed, great to have you tonight joining us from California.
Thank you.
I'm going to read as I hold it in my hand this review copy, which will keep a permanent place on my bookshelf at home.
Ed Bradeau is a conservative political commentator, best-selling author of 10 books and columnist for American Thinker Daily Caller, BizPack Review, Town Hall, Newsmax, and other media outlets.
So I want to come back to that in just a moment, because if that was your genesis, you could understandably perhaps connect the dots that leads you from those types of platforms and publications to your book.
But there's a whole lot more to your background than that.
I want to read now, if I could, just a little bit from the back inside page there.
And it reads that you're an internationally recognized television personality.
You've appeared on ABC National News, Fox News, Inside Edition, CBS, Fortune Business Report, and PBS.
But above and beyond all of that, former U.S. Marine Lieutenant, Fortune 500 sales executive, and Hollywood movie actor.
So that is where the plot thickens.
Ed, where was your connection from the business world and all of that and your background to politics?
I was in the corporate world and I got really tired of it.
I got bored with the whole thing and the bureaucracy.
And I wound up becoming an actor.
I was an actor in New York and in Hollywood.
I did theater in New York.
I did movies and television.
And it was really a great experience in my life.
It broadened my whole perspective.
And after 12 years of that, I kind of got fed up with show business and all the crap that you have to put up with.
And I thought, you know, let me take my business background.
I had been a very good negotiator.
And let me take that and combine that with what I learned as an actor.
And somehow it all melded.
And I started doing seminars for corporations on how to negotiate effectively.
And then I started doing keynote speeches.
And for the past 36 years, that's been my main source of income is doing speeches and seminars.
Well, in 2008, a very unusual thing happened.
A bunch of people that I used to hang out with on Friday nights in my hometown found out that I was not going to vote for Barack Obama, their hero.
And without asking me why, what my reasons were, they automatically called me a racist.
And man, I was pissed off.
Hey, I'm not a racist.
I didn't like it.
And for the first time in my life, I really got turned on by politics.
I had never been much of a political person.
And I started writing political books.
Now, I've written five of them.
Five of my ten books are political.
And the whole thing with the war on whites, as I started getting into this whole political thing, I've noticed over the last couple of years a tremendous amount of anger at white people and putting white people down.
And one professor who said we need to exterminate white people from the face of the planet.
I mean, this is an educated person saying this.
And I found out it's just going on all over the place.
And it really, I'm offended by it.
And I also discovered that people are not aware of it because our media will not report it.
So I decided to take it upon myself to write a book to inform people of what is going on so that we can push back against it.
I got to go back to a little bit of your pre-political bio just as a point of emphasis.
And I'll do so right now, reading this about you, that you are, Ed Brudeau is one of the world's leading negotiation experts.
He has served as a negotiation consultant to some of the world's most prominent organizations.
And boy, they weren't lying.
We're talking about Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, Hyatt, Starbucks, Phillips, British Aerospace, on and on, ExxonMobil, even the IRS and the Pentagon.
So this was your background in business.
And we mentioned again, you know, former Marine, Fortune 500 sales executive, actor.
You've been in films with, and in projects with Ron Howard, Jessica Lynch, Christopher Reeve.
Let me tell you something.
Having been in this for 20 years, I am old enough to know this.
Rare is the man who steps aside from such success in that world with his sense of truth and integrity intact to begin with.
But also now the willingness to write a book such as this.
I mean, it had to be more than that, Ed, that led you to make such a bold decision.
Yeah, you didn't like it.
Yeah, you might have been offended by it.
You know, just because you weren't voting for Barack Obama, you were a racist now.
But to step out from that into this political climate where you were going to be pilloried by a lot of your old friends and associates, I mean, not a lot of people will do that.
Well, let's clarify something.
You say pilloried by friends and associates.
One of the things this has done for me is make me aware of who my friends really are.
I had a bunch of people who I thought were my friends, but who dropped me like a hot potato.
And that includes, by the way, my former literary agent.
I had a terrific top literary agent in New York who got me some deals with HarperCollins and Double Day with my previous books.
As soon as she found out I was a conservative, she dropped me like a hot potato.
And that was really, it was an eye-opener.
And that's, as I said, that's when I got interested in politics.
And I began to identify myself as a conservative.
And Also, to recognize the challenge that the country is faced with right now between what the left is trying to do to the country and the alternative, which is represented by conservatives.
So rather than sit back and be passive about it, my approach has always been to be active, and I took the active approach of using my writing skills to get my point of view across.
And boy, did you ever, I mean, in this book specifically, I know it's made a lot of waves, a lot of success on Amazon.
And you fire an incredible shot across the bow just in the introduction.
So I got this in the mail a few days ago.
And we couldn't get Ed on quickly enough.
And when we come back from this first break of the hour, we're going to read what he wrote in the introduction on page one of this book.
And I think it's going to be enough to captivate you, ladies and gentlemen, to learn more.
And that's what we're going to be doing.
So stay tuned.
Ed Verdeaux, our guest, number one Amazon best-selling author.
Materialistic science states the universe and everything in it emerged from an unguided chaotic expansion of space-time matter energy labeled the Big Bang.
But far from being the result of a chaotic Big Bang, the universe was initiated and put into ordered motion by the Creator.
Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence attributed the laws of nature to the Creator, nature's guide.
Now, the Declaration of Wine Independence by Kyle McDermott sets the record straight from the inception of the laws of nature and of nature's God to the right of all the peoples of mankind to be self-governing within their own homelands.
This book provides an ideology to utterly defeat the woke globalist communist tyrants.
The Declaration of Wine Independence is a highly recommended addition to community, college, and university library philosophy collections and supplemental curriculum studies lists.
Available at the Dixie Republic and Travelers Rest, South Carolina, DixieRepublic.com, and at Barnes Noble.

This is a battle, a battle between truth and deceit.
A battle between forces that would enslave this country in darkness and between a media that wants to present you with the truth.
We are being censored.
America's news outlets no longer provide the truth.
90% of news outlets in the United States are controlled by six corporations.
The mission of the Epic Times is to chase the truth, to ground all statements in facts.
TheEpicTimes.com Well, you know, here at TPC, we pride ourselves on getting things right.
We try to get the facts right.
We try to get everything right.
And one thing I didn't get right was the pronunciation of our guest's name, Ed Brodo.
Ed Brodo, I said, Ed, am I getting the pronunciation right?
This is bad production.
This is bad prep here on my part.
So I'll let the buck stops here.
He said, it's like I've been pronouncing my name for decades.
Don't worry about it.
As long as I wasn't the first, but no, Ed Brodo is the number one Amazon best-selling author.
Anyway, same guy, same spelling, different pronunciation.
You're not going to go wrong.
And so, Ed, in your very introduction to your book, The War on Whites, you shot across the bow.
I read it instantly, and I said, this is the book I'm going to want to read word for word all the way through.
Page one.
Whites are being demonized and marginalized at every turn.
Any attempt to say, I am proud to be white, is met with scorn and ridicule.
Any defense against this is racist behavior.
I have become an advocate for white people, you write.
Things have changed.
30 years ago, this would have never occurred to me.
Now, when I defend white Americans, I'm not referring to white supremacy, whatever that is, and I'm not suggesting that whites are better than any other group.
I am promoting the excellent value system created by white Americans, respect for the individual, freedom of speech, the rule of law, meritocracy, the work ethic, equality of opportunity, taking personal responsibility, the importance of education.
I'm lauding the achievements of white people, especially white men, throughout our history.
The white population is not being given credit for its contributions.
Ed, that's how the book starts.
And it doesn't let up.
Well, a friend of mine said the same thing you said.
He said, boy, you really get to it right away, don't you?
And that's my style.
I like to go right for the essence of things.
And that's the essence of it right there.
That I believe that white people should be applauded for the things that they've done, creating the best country in the world.
And instead of that, they're being demonized.
White people are supposed to be evil.
Little kids are being taught in school that because they're white, they should apologize for being white.
I mean, this is insane.
I agree.
I agree.
But it's always been insane through the onset of the woke agenda and the things that have been progressing, so-called progression.
Anytime I hear the word progress, it means something's getting progressively worse.
But this has been going on for a while now, but the system was so effective at calling people racist in order to sideline them, in order to get them to apologize or acquiesce or otherwise leave the field of battle, that it wasn't until more recently that you had people begin to see through this charade.
I don't know what took them so long, but they have gotten there and better late than never.
But this is, again, what this book is about and your chapters.
I mean, these are seven short, hard-hitting and punchy chapters that are chock full of information.
We'll get to that more in just a moment, but let's just go chapter by chapter here now.
The Inquisition Against White People, the myth of systemic racism.
Let's just start there with those first two.
Some of your findings and some of your commentary and opinions.
Well, this whole thing about systemic racism, one of the things I tried to do in my book, because I know a lot of people would say, ah, this guy is, he doesn't know what he's talking about.
He's a racist.
So I've included the position of many leading black thinkers, people like Thomas Sowell, Bob Woodson, Shelby Steele.
And they all agree with me on this, that systemic racism no longer exists in the United States.
Now, it may have existed prior to the 1950s.
But today, black people are accorded not only equality, but they get special privileges across the board.
So to say that there is such a thing as systemic racism and the United States is a racist, evil country, that just misses the whole, misses reality.
Well, it does.
Well, it absolutely does.
And I am going to make a comparison now for one reason and one reason only, because the audience, this particular audience will get it.
The way that you wrote this book with short topics and stories and examples throughout each chapter, it wasn't as though just one chapter focused on a singular topic, although I guess, you know, in a way that it did.
But you include a lot of different examples throughout each chapter.
The way you wrote it, the way you formatted it, made for, as I said before, a very punchy and fast-paced read.
And it reminded me, if our audience will remember, of my very own book in 2010, Racism Schmaisism, how liberals use the R-word in that way.
In fact, our books, Ed, are the exact same length, almost to the page, the exact same dimensions in terms of length and width.
And there's a lot of commonalities.
So folks, if you, as a regular listener of this program, enjoyed my book from 13 years ago, this is a book that you're going to want to read.
And this book did a lot better.
I never made it to number one on Amazon.
But from the Amazon sales page, I mean, again, you get right back to it.
And I'm reading now.
You go to Amazon.com, Ed, how can they find the book?
Let's just start right there, and then I'll go to this example.
Yeah, well, it's on, you know, just go to amazon.com and type in the war on whites, and there it is.
There it is, and there it is.
And it's still briskly sailing, still ranked very highly, but upon its debut very quickly afterwards, number one on Amazon.
And as the sales page there reads, a noted black college professor said, quote, we have to exterminate white people off the face of the planet.
Now, you know, Ed, I never heard of this guy getting called out by any of these organizations like the ADL or the Southern Poverty Law Center.
I never heard him being called an extremist.
I never heard of him being called a racist hater.
But as the sales page writes, or reads rather, violent anti-white statements like this one could have been unthinkable 20 years ago.
But today, trashing whites has become an acceptable part of American life.
Yeah, I think your book was ahead of its time.
I don't think 13 years ago, I don't think people were ready to hear this.
But I think they're ready to hear it today.
Well, and they're hearing it.
I mean, we were talking in the first hour with a gentleman who has made some international news in recent weeks with his engagements with Elon Musk.
But we were talking about how many conservative influencers now who, I mean, and I get it.
I get it.
I guess I was always sort of on the edge of these things going back with Pat Buchanan and then on into the radio program very nearly after the end of his third and final run for office.
But so I was always sort of on the periphery.
But now, I mean, you're seeing major conservative influencers.
You know, our issues were always right.
Our issues are no more right today.
Our findings and what you're writing about in the book is no more honest and true and right today than it would have been 10 or 20 or 30 or 40 years ago.
But sometimes, I mean, I gave a speech about this recently.
For a movement to grow, for an idea to grow, you have to have the energy.
You have to find it at the intersection of timing and circumstance.
And for whatever reasons, the conditions are favorable now for people to speak out about these issues.
Doesn't mean that they weren't.
You mentioned a few minutes ago that this whole business with woke has been going on for a while.
My observation is that the left, the extreme left, has been successful in taking over some of the main, what I call influence centers of our country.
And I'm talking about the media.
I'm talking about academia, the Democratic Party, Hollywood, big tech.
These are all, this is where people get their ideas from.
And they have managed to take over 50 years.
They have slowly and surely crept down.
Look at the colleges and universities.
Look at Harvard University.
Used to be considered the number one college in the world.
They are a bastion of leftist ideology.
And the stuff that comes out of there today makes me want to throw up.
It's unbelievable.
But they've gotten away with this because of a steady, and you got to give them credit for that.
You know, they did a good job.
But it's time to say enough.
And I think that, you know, the majority in this country, the vast majority is not woke.
There was a Pew survey that I mentioned somewhere in my book where they feel that only about 6% of Americans would consider themselves woke.
6%?
That means 94% of Americans don't buy this nonsense.
And it's time for that 94% to speak up and say, hey, we've had it, baby.
I'm mad as hell, and I'm not taking it anymore.
Well, thanks to people like you, my friend, more people are encouraged to say that because it takes people stepping out and taking the fire and showing leadership and showing resolve and determination before the masses will follow.
I mean, that's just the way it is.
That's human nature.
You don't want to go out and stick your neck out unless other people are doing it too, and you feel like you have some safe cover.
Now, you and I may be exceptions to that, but a lot of people aren't.
And by the way, folks, let me remind you, while Ed was talking, we got to take a quick break here.
I went to Amazon.com.
All you have to do is go to amazon.com and type in the war on whites and you'll find this book.
And it is even an Amazon-mented number one bestseller.
Don't take Ed's word for it, though.
Amazon.com itself designates it as that, and it stands out at the very top of the returns.
The war on whites.
Ed Brodo, our guest, stay tuned.
Pursuing liberty, using the Constitution as our guide.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
USA News, I'm Skip Kelly.
The government has been on the brink of a federal government shutdown.
Well, the House on Saturday afternoon quickly approved a 45-day funding bill to keep federal agencies open as Speaker Kevin McCarthy dropped demands for steep spending cuts and relied on Democratic votes for passage to send to the package to the Senate.
The new approach would leave behind aid to Ukraine, which was a White House priority, opposed by a growing number of GOP lawmakers.
But the plan would increase federal disaster assistance by $16 billion, meeting President Joe Biden's full request.
The package was approved 335 to 91, with most Republicans and almost all Democrats supporting.
More auto workers joined the picket line after UAW and Ford failed to come to an agreement after two weeks of talks.
The president of the United Auto Workers, Sean Fane, says there's a long way to go before the union reaches a deal with Ford.
The UAW expanding its strike with more workers joining the picket line at factories in Illinois and Michigan.
More than 25,000 auto workers on strike right now.
Laura Winters reporting.
The country is looking back on the life of California Democrat and government trailblazer Dianne Feinstein, who passed away at the age of 90.
The oldest serving senator, Feinstein had served in the Senate for 30 years, being first elected to the position in the early 1990s.
Feinstein had suffered from frail health for the last few months.
California Governor Gavin Newsom will appoint someone to temporarily fill the seat until the upcoming primaries in March.

A deluge of rain causes flash flooding in New York City, disrupting subway service, inundating ground-level apartments, and turning some streets into small lakes.
Friday's torrential downpours came after a week of steady rain.
Almost eight inches of rain fell in some parts of the city.
Governor Kathy Hochle warned of life-threatening floods and declared a state of emergency for New York City, Long Island, and the Hudson Valley.
This is USA News.
Have you ever met a single person in your life that enjoys paying taxes?
No, no one does.
If you can't sleep at night because you have a huge problem with the IRS, I've got some free advice for you.
This service is strictly limited to individuals that owe the IRS $10,000 or more in back taxes.
And if you qualify, we can guarantee that you won't be writing a big fat check to the IRS or our services cost you nothing.
The first 100 people that call today will get a free tax consultation worth $500.
Well, folks, of course, you can't go much further.
You can't do much better than number one.
And Brodo has already reached number one on Amazon with this book, but we hope that we can help him sell a few more units as we approach now.
We're a day away from October.
If you're listening live tonight, so it's close enough now.
You can start thinking about Christmas presents.
And this one's priced to sell, the war on whites at Amazon.com.
And I actually read the whole book cover to cover.
I did.
And I spent much more time preparing for this interview than we're going to be able to possibly share with you over the course of this hour.
But there's a reason why you have these sales pages because they are so succinct and they are so good.
And so I'm going to read from it right now some revelations in The War on Whites.
Systemic racism and white privilege are myths invented to demonize whites and foment racial division.
Diversity trainings have failed to create more diversity.
The actual purpose is the suppression of white people.
They are all about racial indoctrination, not racial sensitivity.
Diversity and meritocracy are opposites.
Instead of promoting people based on competence, diversity demands skin color trumps merit, as long as your skin isn't white.
The educational system is brainwashing white kids to be ashamed of their skin color.
Affirmative action is useless.
Only unqualified people need it.
Competent blacks and Hispanics have no difficulty getting a job or being admitted to college.
Black Lives Matter has done nothing to help black people.
Instead, it advocates violence, dissolution of the nuclear family, disbanding the police, and an arbitrary call for reparations.
Critical race theory harms blacks by convincing them that they are helpless victims at the mercy of a maniacal white oppressor.
Joe Biden's executive order on equality is an attempt to replace America's belief in equality with an illegal policy that marginalizes whites.
Now, folks, if any of those bullet points interest you, and I think all of them do, the war on whites at Amazon.com.
And again, My co-host tonight, Keith Alexander, he's an attorney by trade.
He's attending his 50th college reunion tonight.
Otherwise, he would be here.
If he was here, he would say, when you hit the nail on the head, you drive it straight.
I've heard that enough over the years.
Those are some hard-hitting and hard topics that you have absolutely met shoulder to shoulder and head-on.
You know, a lot of people are offended by some of that.
I had a woman in New York who I have known for 30 years and who I thought was a good friend of mine.
She read what I had to say about Black Lives Matter, and she wrote to me, Ed, I'm really disappointed in you.
You're not the kind, loving person that I thought you were.
Why?
Because I think Black Lives Matter is a racist, violent organization.
But she bought the whole thing, hook, line, and sinker, and she doesn't want to have anything to do with me anymore.
Isn't that amazing?
It is if you watched it.
If you have eyes that work and ears that hear.
I mean, it was what's the old saying?
Well, this was, you know, Marvin Gaye heard it through the grapevine, believe half of what you see and none of what you hear.
And then it was just, you know, who are you going to believe?
The media or your lying eyes.
I mean, no, we saw what Black Lives Matter was doing.
We saw the so-called mostly peaceful protests.
We saw the sacking of police stations and the burning of cities.
And yeah, I mean, no, we don't want to have any part of that.
No lawful, law-abiding society would.
But another thing you mentioned there is the dissolution of the nuclear family.
A friend of mine named Sean Bergen, who was formerly a beat reporter in the New York, New Jersey metro area for one of the local affiliates, and he went on to be on with Fox News and others, but he got sacked at his job for saying it was one of these instances of black lawlessness, frankly, black murder.
You see in Chicago all the time.
Now, if Black Lives Matter was a legitimate organization, that's what I would want them to do.
I would want them to go into cities like Memphis and Atlanta and Baltimore and Chicago and talk about the black-on-black crime that is going on in their communities.
That's what a responsible organization would be, not the bilking of reparations and grievances.
As Pat Buchanan said, we've heard the grievances.
Where's the gratitude?
Let's not relitigate things that happened 150, 200, 250 years ago.
Let's focus on what's happening now.
But my friend Sean Bergen was on a live report from a murder, a black-on-black murder, and he mentioned the lack of fathers in some of these homes.
And he was immediately fired for it.
But these are real issues.
I mean, why can't we talk about real issues?
Why can't there be?
You know, Ed, I hear all the time, I say this all the time.
We hear that diversity is our greatest strength.
What about the diversity of opinion?
Is that a strength?
They don't believe in that.
They don't believe in diversity of opinion.
Everybody, you know, everybody should be diverse, but not as far as opinions.
Everybody should have the same opinion.
That shows you what a hypocritical bunch of baloney it all is.
And you get to it in the book, and more people are getting into it now.
I read a recent review of your book, and I'm going to read from it right now.
Several recent books have challenged America's racial orthodoxy.
If trend continues, 2023 could be remembered as the year that dissidents finally broke the left's taboo of truthfully discussing racial reality.
But while America's Cultural Revolution by Christopher Ruffo, When Race Trumps Merit by Heather McDonald, and The Origins of Woke by Richard Hanania focus on defeating leftist policies and civil rights laws, The War on Whites by our guest right now, ladies and gentlemen, Ed Brodo, highlights the raw anti-white animus coming from every single U.S. institution.
Now, Ed, this would never have happened a few years ago, much less 10 or 20 years ago.
Believe me, because we've been doing it for that long, and it was very lonely to be talking about these issues at the turn of the century.
Why, in your opinion, has the number of people tackling this taboo proliferated in recent years, especially even people like you who came from such an establishment background, if you'll pardon the adjective.
But even as late as the Trump administration, you really didn't see it.
But it's really blossomed since 2020, I think.
Well, for me, it's all very clear what's going on right now.
And I saw a lot of it starting with Obama.
I am definitely a critic of Obama.
I think Obama hated, I think he hates America and he hates white people.
And I think having him as president, a lot of friends only thought, gee, it would be great to have a black man as president.
Well, he really let everybody down.
He really screwed things up.
And this whole racial, the racial condition of the country has been worsened as a result of him and what he did.
And then Trump came in, and I'm a big supporter of Trump.
I think Trump is the best president of my lifetime.
And all you have to do is look at the things that he accomplished in four years.
And I sure as hell hope he comes back again because what we have going on right now with Biden is it cannot be it cannot be sustained.
The country is being destroyed.
This whole business with the open border, with Biden's anti-fossil fuel campaign, which is completely nuts and based on the ridiculous idea that human beings are able to control the weather.
Well, we can't.
And thousands of scientists are coming out now and saying, you know, this is all a bunch of malarkey.
But Biden has fallen for it, hook line and sinker, because I think he is backed by a bunch of ex-Obama people who are telling him what to do.
And they believe in all of this nonsense.
And then you have the woke thing on top of it.
And woke, in a nutshell, what woke is, people say, what is woke?
Woke is the idea that the U.S. is a racist country.
And there's this thing called critical race theory that I talk about in my book.
Critical race theory, in essence, says that all white people are oppressors and racists.
And all black people are helpless victims.
And I emphasize the word all.
So they lump everybody together.
You know, you have how many million white people in this country?
According to critical race theory, they all think alike, and they're all oppressing everybody.
Well, I'm white and I haven't oppressed anybody.
So what is all this?
And then if I were black, I would be really offended because if you're telling me that as a black person, I'm helpless, I'm a helpless victim, I have no control over my life, I have no agency, that's extremely insulting.
So a point that I make in the book is that the war on whites is not only bad for white people, but it's bad for black people as well.
Well, that's actually the seventh and final chapter of your book.
And I agree.
You know, I am happy and content and proud of the way that God made me.
And because of that, I'm going to advance that cultural heritage.
But had I been born a different race, had I been born black, I think I would have taken a tact like Jesse Lee Peterson, a friend of mine who sees things clearly and isn't afraid to speak these truths.
This is hurting.
I would be offended by the fact that any Shortcomings or any deficiencies in my community are the result of somebody else.
I would want to take accountability.
The buck stops here.
I'd want to pull myself up.
And I mean, it really is just a lazy ideology.
I mean, again, we've heard the grievances.
Where's the gratitude?
And we're going to get to that this example.
Numerous examples.

The war on whites.
Stay tuned.
The Honorable Cause, a Free South, is a collection of 12 essays written by Southern nationalist authors.
The book explores topics such as what is the Southern nation?
What is Southern nationalism?
And how can we achieve a free and independent dictionary answers questions on our own terms?
The book invites readers to understand for themselves why a free and independent diction is both preferable and possible.
The book pulls in some of the biggest producers of pro-South content, including James Edwards, the host and creator of The Political Cesspoo, and Wilson Smith, author of Charlottesville Unto, Arkansas congressional candidate and activist Neil Kumar,
host and creator of the dissident mama podcast, Rebecca Dillingham, author of A Walk in the Park, My Charlottesville Story, Identity Diction, Patrick Martin, and yours truly, Michael Hill, founder and president of the League of the South, as well as several other authors.
The Honorable Cause is available now at Amazon.com.
In Message 1, we said that Satan, the father of lies, John 8:44, gave the left evil spiritual power the more they use the lies.
The political left today is the beast.
Now, the Bible confirms that the dragon gave him the beast his power.
Revelation 13, 2.
The extra evil spiritual power that comes from the beast by their lying is what accounts for the string of the leftist criminals in the government that have never yet been prosecuted.
It also explains why American capitalists support communism in the 21st century.
Note one, that behavior of capitalists was predicted by Vladimir Lenin, a sell of the beast.
Note two, Henry Ford was a capitalist, and he would have never gone communist.
The difference between Ford and the present-day end-time capitalists is that Ford was born and educated in the kingdom of Christ, 19th century America, the New Jerusalem, Revelation 21.
One more segment with Ed Brodo, the number one Amazon best-selling author of The War on White's How Hating White People Became the New National Sport.
What I was saying before was, I'm not ashamed of the way God made me.
I'm not going to apologize for that.
They consider that to be hate speech.
But you give examples of true hate speech throughout your book, and I include the following collection here.
You note that an African-American professor at North Carolina State University told a panel at Howard University Law School, quote, we have to exterminate white people off the face of the planet, end quote.
Nicole Hannah-Jones, creator of the 1619 project, claims that, quote, the white race is the biggest murderer, rapist, pillager, and thief of the modern world, end quote.
Donald Moss, a psychoanalyst who teaches at the New York Psychoanalytic Institute, referred to whiteness as, quote, a malignant, parasitic-like condition to which white people have a particular susceptibility, end quote.
I could go on and on.
You list many more examples, all as offensive and belligerent as the ones that I just mentioned.
And then I look at my three young children.
I have Isabel, who is 13, Henry, who is 8, and Caroline, who is 2.
And I look at them, and they are innocent, and they are good, and they are pure, and we're raising them in a homeschooled Christian family.
You know, should they be taught from birth on to feel this guilt, to feel as though they are the scum of the earth, to hate themselves, be told to hate their ancestors, to hate their culture, to hate all of the greatness that our people have given?
Because of what?
Because of a few malcontents that now run these universities and these systems?
I don't think, I mean, never, never for me.
And I thank you again for writing a book such as this that will lead others to that conclusion.
Yeah, we have to push back against that.
You know, the kids have to be taught to be proud of who they are.
They have to be taught to be proud of this country, which is a wonderful, exceptional country.
They need to be taught that.
But the worst thing that you didn't mention that I want to mention for your listeners, I think the worst thing that's going on is these corporate and government diversity trainings in which, and I give examples in the book, where white people are told to undo your whiteness and be less white.
Coca-Cola told its white employees to be less white.
Now, what the hell are they talking about?
How am I supposed to be less white?
Imagine if they told their black employees, undo your blackness.
There we go.
Be less black.
There would be riots going on for weeks, but they get away with it because the white employees are intimidated in the current environment.
They're intimidated to speak up.
And occasionally, like there's one woman who was suing her employer because they wanted to force her to admit that she's a racist.
And she says, I'm not a racist, and you can't do that.
And then there's this kid at the University of Chicago.
I don't know if you read about that one.
The University of Chicago has a course, The Problem of Whiteness.
And he said, that's racist.
And they wanted to kick him out of the school.
But he stood up for himself.
And I have to say, to the benefit of the University of Chicago, they didn't kick him out.
But they haven't, as far as I know.
They're still offering that course.
The problem of whiteness.
If they had a course called the problem of blackness, there would be headlines all over the place.
Well, it'd be okay if you do it to white people.
It is not okay.
No, well, no, it's not.
I mean, the hypocrisy, the double standard, I mean, you could trip over it.
But you document this so well.
And these aren't just things.
I mean, Ed, you didn't go to the fever swamps of social media and draw some examples.
I mean, all of these examples that you cite in your book, and there's no major outrage over any of these remarks, not from the establishment press, of course, and the establishment system organs.
But they all came from powerful people and elite institutions.
I mean, we're talking about again, professor at North Carolina State University, the creator of the 1619 Project, psychoanalyst at the New York Psychoanalytic Institute, the New York Times editorial board member Sarah Jong, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot, on and on and on.
Pentagon Diversity Chief Khaleesa Wing, Texas A ⁇ M professor Tommy Curry, who said that who believes that blacks should openly talk about murdering whites so that whites believe that, quote, death could come for them at any moment.
I mean, this is not hate speech.
I don't see any of the hate watch organizations calling out any of these people.
I wonder why that is.
Oh, they bought into this leftist philosophy.
And so has Biden.
Biden has bought into it, and it's really insidious.
And it's time for the majority.
I think we are the majority.
It's time for us to stand up and say, hey, no more.
I'm not going to put, if you're a white employee and your employer says you have to confess that you're racist, I would tell them to shove it.
Get another job.
It's insane.
It's completely insane.
People have to show some backbone.
Well, you have.
You have.
And I appreciate people who have because you didn't have to do it.
You had a very comfortable life.
You had success in a lot of different and influential fields.
And then still your moral compass led you to write a book such as this.
And again, I'm reading from a review of your book.
And this is what it reads.
The author believes that taken to its logical conclusion, identity politics and diversity will destroy merit and put everyone at risk.
He notes that United Airlines recently announced that 50% of its new pilots will be women or non-whites.
Most medical schools also practice affirmative action.
We'll push critical race theory and diversity, equity, and inclusion, DEI propaganda.
Leads to the obvious question, do we want affirmative action hires flying our airplanes at 30,000 feet or performing heart surgery?
And that's the thing.
Hey, listen, if there is a non-white more qualified than the fields do either of those jobs, believe me, I want my hands in the most qualified.
But I'm not so sure that's the case.
And again, I compare it to my book back in 2010, Ed.
It's an updated version in many ways.
The war on whites is filled with ridiculous cases showing where this cult of diversity leads.
And it is chock full with examples from page one to page, as I flip through it here, 188.
Folks, it's a read that you will enjoy.
And you can get it tonight at Amazon.com.
But yeah, I mean, again, is this the end game of diversity?
I mean, how absurd must it be?
Well, this country is dangerous.
If they get away with it and they destroy meritocracy, that's the end of America.
America is based on meritocracy.
And I know that if I'm lying on an operating table and I'm having brain surgery, I don't want to look up and see the winner of this year's Social Justice Award.
I want to see somebody who had good grades in medical school and who knows what the hell he's doing.
And I don't care.
You know, I don't care what his race is, whether he's a man or a woman or a dog.
You know, I just want somebody who's competent and qualified.
That's what made America great.
And they want to destroy it.
Well, not if I have anything to say about it.
And I want people to read my book so they understand how serious the threat is to America.
Well, more and more people of influence like you are beginning to speak out about this.
And it's for the betterment of all society.
And it is for the betterment of all people.
It is for the betterment of all people that the most qualified person get the position.
I mean, filling in a blank, filling in an application just because you need a quota met, man, that is not only reckless, it's dangerous.
I mean, you will kill people doing that.
And this thing, I want the most qualified pilot.
I don't want to look into the cockpit and see somebody that got there just because their race was different than somebody else's.
I mean, I want the most qualified man behind the yoke there.
But you tackle reparations to close your book.
You tackle reparations.
And you end the book by focusing on the case for reparations for slavery.
Now, you wonder how blacks would feel if the tables were turned.
If reparations represent the new face of racial politics, we ought to consider reparations for whites paid for by blacks as compensation for decades of massive violence against the white population.
Whites are suffering from black criminality and anti-white hate in the here and now, not 50 to 100 years ago.
The economic cost to whites and white businesses from black racial violence has amounted to billions.
The cost of welfare and other government programs designed to help blacks has amounted to trillions with very little to show for it.
Ed, you closed the book.
I mean, you opened it with a barn, with fireworks, and you closed it with fireworks, and everything in between was right on par.
Powerful from page one to the close.
Well, you know, this whole idea of reparations to me is like the logical conclusion of all of the nonsense.
It's, you know, people who have never been slaves, whose parents were not slaves, who may have had an ancestor 200 years ago who was a slave, they want to be compensated.
Well, hell, I'd like to be compensated for things that went down to my ancestors, but it's never going to happen.
And I assure as hell hope it doesn't happen with black people in this country.
And I think that any black person who has any sense of integrity will agree with that.
I love what Bob Woodson said.
Bob Woodson said that if all the white people left and went to Europe tomorrow, it wouldn't have one bit of difference in the black community.
Because black people, it's time for them to take responsibility for their own behaviors.
And unfortunately, I talk about black criminality, how blacks are responsible for more than half of the crime in this country.
But you're not allowed to say that.
I got kicked off of a, I was being interviewed in the UK on our TV show.
And when I started talking about it, the guy cut me off.
He says, and pretty much accused me of being a racist.
I'm just quoting facts.
And any black person who has a sense of honesty can say, all right, this is a problem.
We have to solve it within our own community and stop blaming everybody else.
Stop blaming white people and stop talking about exterminating white people from the face of the planet.
That's crazy.
Exactly, Ed.
I mean, and I'd like to think, and God willing, it would have been this way, had the Lord chosen for me to be born black, to come into this world as a black man.
I would like to think that that's exactly the way that I would tackle these issues.
I think that it would be.
But man, the way things are going.
I mean, it's a whole emperor as no clothes type of civilizational scenario.
And we've talked about this on the program recently.
I went down to Alabama last month, and I took an hour drive out of my way to go down to Selma, Selma, Alabama, a majority, you know, 80-20 black city now.
And the whites are gone, and the prosperity just isn't there.
I wonder, you know, again, you know, all the racism's gone, you know, that they called racism.
That's all gone now.
Why is that not a garden spot?
Makes you wonder.
But in any event, Ed, I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this hour, how quickly it went by.
