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.
Who in the world would have ever known what colotles could do if Queen Isabella hadn't offered her Jews in 1492?
But she hadn't.
I'm in.
Padica, nickel, nickel, blue.
I'm in.
A knock and knock and knocking on the timing into thee.
It's true.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, with the intro music like that, we are going to celebrate, Keith Alexander, and yours truly, the life and legacy of Christopher Columbus this entire hour.
It is Columbus Day weekend, and I can't think of one hour on top of the other that we could have done better tonight than Steve King for one and Christopher Columbus for two.
Am I right or wrong, Keith?
I think you nailed it.
Well, Queen Isabella, what a hero or a heroine, if I may, for our people.
No, it's like people remember her for her association with Christopher Columbus now, primarily.
But, you know, in the past, driving the Moors, driving the Muslims out of Spain, she and King Ferdinand, yeah, that was a real watershed moment in European history.
One led to the next.
And I mentioned this in my Amerin speech.
And before I remind you of that, I will tell you, and everyone listening, my daughter was named after Queen Isabella.
We named her Isabelle because of Queen.
I'm glad you didn't name her Ferdinand.
That would be a good name for a son.
We went with Henry for Henry VIII there on that one.
But no, Isabelle.
And why not Isabella, you ask?
Well, she was named after Queen Isabella and Southern Belle.
So we just put it one and one together and Isabelle.
And we did a project on Queen Isabella last year that I was happy to help her with for her homeschool co-op.
But nevertheless, yes, as you mentioned, my friend, this is Columbus Day weekend.
And after 700 years of Muslim occupation in Spain, our European ancestors unshackled themselves, as I mentioned in my Amrin talk, and set off to satisfy that Faustian spirit that burns within us.
And after a voyage of more than two months, Columbus landed on San Salvador Island in the Bahamas on October the 12th, 1492.
It was the dawn of the age of exploration, Keith, and our people conquered the world.
Yeah, and, you know, it could very easily have just wound up like the Norse incursion into North America where they created a little settlement, I think, on Newfoundland or something like that, and it never went anywhere, and it's been forgotten.
But this was true timing that when Christopher Clover came by.
As Jimmy Jones sang in the song.
Now, Jimmy Jones is black.
Well, he looks rather mulatto to me.
But nevertheless, I mean, but back then, I mean, you had even, you know, obviously non-whites who were singing and celebrating this stuff.
That's a departure.
That just goes to show how far we've fallen from all Americans in the past honored Christopher Columbus because that's where it all began.
That's where the discovery of the new world would never have taken place except for Columbus's voyages.
And once that happened, basically it doubled the size of the world.
And, you know, the arable land, everything else, it's just what are the, I'm sorry, Keith, but answer this.
The two positions on Columbus, break them down.
The pro-Columbus and the anti-Columbus side.
What are the pro-Columbus people celebrating?
What are the anti-Columbus people hating?
Well, the pro-Columbus people, even though they may not even know it or acknowledge it, are celebrating the advent of the white race to the Western Hemisphere.
Without the white race being in charge and settling this area, it would just be a big wildlife preserve the way it was before Columbus arrived.
On the other hand, the anti-Columbus people hate Columbus and do not want to celebrate Columbus Day for the exact same reason, because it's a way to show their anti-white bona fides.
He should be one of the great saints of Christianity.
I think people lose sight of this.
Well, people would say, well, you know, generally, well, yes, they came.
They wanted to spread the gospel and make converts.
But I don't think people realize exactly how much that factored into Columbus's mindset.
Jared Taylor wrote an article.
It was actually a book review a couple of years ago from a professor at Brown University that I think will educate you more folks on what compelled Columbus to take the risks that he did and become the hero that he was.
Reading now from Jared's article a couple of years ago at Amran.com, found this today in my research for tonight's program.
What sort of a man was Christopher Columbus?
Why did he cross the Atlantic?
And what did he do in the New World?
The fashion is to despise him as a greedy, genocidal, racist, and slave driver.
But Professor Carol Delaney of Brown University, that's Ivy League, folks, refutes these charges.
She refutes these charges.
His motives were almost entirely, even fanatically, Christian.
She is mystified to the evil reputation he has acquired.
As Professor Delaney explains, it is impossible to understand Columbus without understanding what committed Catholics thought in the 15th century.
Most believed Christianity was the one true faith and that unbelievers went to hell.
Evangelism was a duty.
Professor Delaney explains that Columbus was convinced that he could help retake the Holy Land by selling to China across the Atlantic.
First, he would bring back gold, which was supposed to be plentiful in China, and this would finance a new crusade.
Second, he could avoid the Silk Road land route to China, which was blocked after the fall of Constantinople.
Third, he would meet the Chinese ruler, the Great Khan, and convert him to Christianity and persuade Christian Chinese to attack from the east to help liberate Jerusalem.
Fanatic and fantastic as it may sound now, the idea enlisting the Chinese to help bring on the second coming dated back to the time of Marco Polo.
In the publication of his Travels in 1300, Columbus owned a copy of Travels and made notes in the margins.
It was unusual for lay people to read the Bible, but Columbus read it diligently.
His contemporaries wrote of his passionate Christianity and how strongly influenced by the Franciscans he was who thought Christians should not wait passively for the end times, but work to bring them on.
Columbus also took very seriously the duty to convert heathen peoples and save their souls.
That was what motivated Columbus to become the personification, the quintessential explorer of the Western man.
Well, he was a fair-minded man.
People don't recall this when they're trying to recall the life of Christopher for Columbus.
But when he was actually in place governing the colonies that he had set up in the Caribbean, they worked like a charm.
It was when he left and other people with less sanctity than he had took charge.
That's where the problems came.
But he was, You know, it's funny too that you bring up the Silk Road because the Silk Road is a big topic now.
You know, the new Silk Road that Russia and China are putting together trying to strengthen trade between their nations and Africa and Central Asia and Eastern Europe.
All of that stuff.
That was a big motivation for Christopher Columbus.
He knew how far and how arduous the journey was from, let's say, Spain to China.
And he was looking for a shortcut over the sea.
But, of course, nobody knew what was beyond the sea back then, and it was— Not even Bobby Darin.
That's right.
Yeah.
You looked at me like you wanted me to say something about that, Grant.
Yeah, that's coming up.
That would be our bumper music for the next time.
But that's what we've got, folks.
All right.
Stay tuned.
We're celebrating the life and the legacy of Christopher Columbus this whole hour.
And maybe you'll even learn a little bit, something more about our great hero, the great hero of our people.

If I could fly like Burton High and straight to Iran, let go sail.
Well, you know, Bobby Darren was taken from us too soon, Keith, but not before he got to enjoy Sandra D.
That was the last great song of the swing era, by the way.
That's what they call swing music, which was replaced by rock and roll.
I tell you what, Mac the Knife.
He was a great kid.
I can belt out Mac the Knife.
Mac the Knife is one of my go-tos in karaoke, by the way.
But you know that that's from the Three Penny Opera, which was a product of the incredibly corrupt Weimar Republic, Germany.
Oh, don't tell me that.
That's such a good song, though.
Well, it was a good song.
Well, you're talking.
Keith just completely abandoned his microphone to answer that.
No, that's exactly what's going on.
Anyway.
Beyond the Sea is exactly where Christopher Columbus sailed.
And I'll give you a little more background on Columbus.
He was an Italian, of course, as you know, who grew up in Genoa.
He was nine years old when ships sailed from Genoa on a failed crusade.
Getting back to what we talked about in the first segment.
A sight that must have made a deep impression.
When he was 14, he was apprenticed to the sea, or beyond the sea, if you will.
And he got his first taste of the Atlantic on a voyage to England in 1476 when he was 25 years old.
In 1481 or 82, he sailed to what is now Ghana in Africa and stopped in the Canary Islands.
He was a gifted navigator with a widely admired talent for dead reckoning.
That means navigation without instruments.
Now, he didn't care what Christian sovereign would finance his voyage.
He went to many and was turned down by all until Ferdinand and Isabella.
Yep.
And that was a turning point in history.
I mean, I took a good timing, was it not?
And it was Isabella more than Ferdinand who was sort of enamored with his proposal.
Celebrating the unshackling of the Muslim occupation of the Apple Maps.
That was important enough of its own right.
But basically what Columbus did was increase the size of the world by doing this.
Double the size of the world.
This whole Western hemisphere, which was incredibly fertile soil, incredibly rich mineral wealth, things like this.
That was what was opened up, and that's what allowed Europeans to rise to the top of the totem pole among peoples because it was our efforts as white people to expand.
And as Christians, you know, certainly especially.
You're right, and to spread Christianity.
That was, you know, perfect.
What happened because of Columbus's explorations is that, for example, the Anglosphere.
You talk about that.
English people are an incredibly great stock of people.
I will argue that with anyone.
The Spaniards came over, and what did they do?
They basically wanted to make a hatful and move back to Spain.
The English would send out the people from the lower orders or scrape up the bottom of the jails like they did in Australia.
But if you sent them to a place that had a reasonable climate and reasonably fertile soil, they turned it into a garden spot.
And really, even today, where do third world refugees want to come?
Do they want to go to Saudi Arabia?
No.
Do they want to go to China?
No.
They want to go to Anglosphere outposts.
It's a schizophrenic type of thing.
They want to come, but they hate the people who make the civilizations and the societies that they want to come to.
Well, what they do is they look and they say, why not the best?
And the best are the Anglosphere locales.
And it all started, at least if you're not living in Europe, for people outside of Europe, it all started with Christopher Columbus.
Let's talk about that discovery that we celebrate this and every Columbus Day weekend.
He kept a detailed dary of which only abridged versions survive, but they tell us a great deal.
After 31 days of sailing, so many on his crew insisted on turning back that Columbus promised them that if they didn't sight land within three days, he would give up and return to Spain.
That's how close it came to not happening, Keith.
And two days later, only 24 hours before the deadline, the ships made landfall on what is now Watling Island in the Bahamas.
There, Columbus found naked people whom he thought handsome and intelligent.
He gave them trinkets in which they took so much pleasure and became so much our friends that it was a marvel.
Those were Christopher Columbus's own writings.
Columbus believed that he was in the Indies, so he called the people Indians.
Now, they didn't have any sort of religion, so they didn't have to unlearn a pagan faith, and he set about converting them to Christianity.
But he did make good, he complimented the people, though.
He said the Arawaks were a noble race.
People that didn't beg him.
They didn't beg.
They didn't lie to him.
He liked it.
He was an ally.
Yeah.
He thought they were wonderful people.
Now, there was a class struggle after he started to establish civilization in the New World.
He realized how much money was at stake.
Well, he thought that different men of different classes could work well together, but the high-ranking Hidalgos who had come on the voyage refused to work and expected easy riches.
They wouldn't farm.
They wouldn't eat the local food, which Columbus and others enjoyed, actually.
And they wrote letters back to Spain complaining about Columbus.
And so he was eventually removed.
And after he returned to Spain, Isabella had died.
And Ferdinand wasn't as much of an admirer of Columbus as Isabella.
So he didn't live in poverty or obscurity in the later years of his life, but he didn't live in the sort of glory that he won after his family.
He really deserved.
Well, and of course it all came back later.
It all came back, and deservingly so, post-humous.
Now the sun is setting on Christopher Columbus.
They're trying to take down his statue.
That's Thomas Jefferson and all this.
But, you know, that just shows you what people like Sam Francis were telling us 20 years ago, which is that they are really not pro-black or pro-Indian or pro-anything.
They are anti-white.
And they will attack.
He said, you think that it's going to end with Confederate statues?
No, they're going to go after Columbus, the founding fathers, and all the rest of us.
And he's exactly right.
For half the country, he is still the hero he always was.
For the other half, who are not our people, he is not.
But I think, again, as you say, Keith, and we'll get into this later this hour, their lives, the lives they live now, have been improved and better because of Columbus and everyone who came after him.
Absolutely.
No question about that.
Now, let's read something that was written years ago by someone named James Buchanan, who I believe was writing under a pseudonym.
A little more history about Columbus.
We'll take a break.
Really enjoying this hour.
This needs to be something, and it has been something we do every year near Columbus Day.
This should be, Columbus Day should be the most important holiday next to Christmas that white people celebrate.
The Spanish set out an expedition to circle the world in 1519 under Ferdinand Magellan, completing what Columbus had originally set out to do, reaching the Orient by sailing west.
The voyage that Columbus established, that ships of the time could sail thousands of miles across open ocean.
On his second voyage, Columbus brought sugar cane plants to the Caribbean, which started a highly profitable sugar trade.
Columbus proved that there was a place where ships could resupply on a westward voyage between Europe and Japan.
The discovery of the new world led to the construction of bigger, better ships that could more easily sail across the ocean and carry out trade over thousands of miles.
In recent years, whiny liberals have done their best to try to demonize Columbus and white people in general.
They cite the early slave trade, forgetting that slavery had existed for thousands of years all over the world, and it was only Europeans who would eventually outlaw the practice.
Liberals and their media give virtually no credit to the Spanish for bringing Christianity to the New World.
Every place the Spaniards went, they stopped human sacrifices, cannibalism, and other brutal practices of the natives.
Apparently, liberals considered this to be a negative.
The self-righteous liberals only seem to value things like gay sex and transgenderism.
Saving someone's soul, apparently, doesn't count as the most important accomplishment that could ever be done in the liberal world.
It shows that they really have no Christian faith.
People that do not recognize and acknowledge and praise Columbus for his Christian outreach are telling you that they are not Christian.
Columbus left 39 men at Fort Christmas founding the settlement of a Navadad in Hispanolya, which is, of course, present-day Haiti.
The Indians there slaughtered all of them.
The 39 men he left behind, they slaughtered all of them.
Now, every made-for-TV documentary assumes that the 39 Spanish left behind were mistreating the Indians.
If you were heavily outnumbered like that and left behind, would you risk antagonizing the natives?
We shouldn't join the liberals in immediately assuming that the whites were the guilty party.
The only crime of that we know for certain in that earliest encounter between the two worlds was that genocide was committed by the Indians against the Spanish, and it was mass murder.
When Columbus returned with a force of 1,200, some of those Indians faced retaliation for their massacre of the Spaniards, and quite rightly.
But by the way, Columbus also, well, we'll get to this after the after the music.
This is again the history of the life and legacy of Christopher Columbus.
And we'll tell you in the next segment why, why he deserves to be remembered and honored by all good people.
Stay tuned.

Israel is at war with Hamas militants after a surprise attack near the Gaza Strip.
The militant group claims they've been taken hostages, including Israeli soldiers.
The military has launched airstrikes and is clashing with gunmen at the border.
Israeli media reported that at least 100 people so far have been killed in the wide-ranging assault, while Gaza health officials say that 198 Palestinians have died in Israeli air attacks made in response to the Hamas attack.
President Biden is patting himself on the back after the recent jobs report revealing that the U.S. economy added 336,000 jobs in September, which surpassed economists' projections.
We have the highest share of working-age Americans in the workforce in 20 years.
And it's no accident.
It's by Nomics.
We're growing the economy from the middle out, the bottom up, not the top-down.
And inflation is coming down at the same time.
Biden emphasized that his administration has generated nearly 14 million jobs since he assumed office.
The unemployment rate has consistently held below 4%.
Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fanny Willis says she's been getting threats.
Willis said Friday the threats began when her office indicted former President Donald Trump and 18 others for allegedly interfering with the 2020 election results in Georgia.
Willis told the Fulton County Board of Commissioners that threats come in the mail, over the phone, and even through text messages.
She's also asking the commission for more power when it comes to vetting and hiring her own staff.

Well, we're celebrating Christopher Columbus.
We're having a good time while we do it, are we not, Keith Alexander?
Absolutely.
And you know what he did?
I was just thinking over the break.
Now you have refugees from the third world trying to access Western civilization in Europe and in America.
What Christopher Columbus did.
They could say bring it to them.
They brought Western civilization to them.
They didn't have to go anywhere.
And they could stay far apart from white people, but they won't.
Yeah, the thing is, they just, they don't have the special mojo, apparently, at least in their own minds.
But that's what we, you know, what Christopher Columbus was doing besides spreading Christianity to places where it was unknown, he was spreading Western civilization and culture.
Which are really one and the same in many ways.
Exactly.
They're all part of the same package.
And that's what he did.
And it was a great benefit to the rest of the world.
Columbus deserves to be remembered and honored for being the greatest explorer of all time.
Period.
End of story, full stop.
The greatest explorer of all time.
There is not one explorer that had a greater impact or a more profound impact on the history of the world and the history of our people and the history of Western civilization than Christopher Columbus.
Now, I know, it's not called, well, the District of Columbia, our capital, or the capital of the regime now, as it were, but it's called the United States of America.
America goes to the Ducci.
America Fespucci was the one who finally connected the dots and reached the mainland.
But it all stemmed from Columbus.
I mean, clearly so.
He was got the ball rolling.
He started the European settlement of America that led to the creation of the United States.
Important new crops like corn and potatoes were soon brought back to Europe.
Christianity was introduced to the natives, and we talked about in the first segment about how much of a catalyst and how much of a driving force that was to him and his adventure and his discovery and all of it.
It goes back to the faith.
Human sacrifice was abolished.
Of course, the Indians made out better than you think.
They enjoyed the advantages of modern society now, and many of the tribes have grown rich off of casinos.
We've talked about this a lot.
The argument for we took the land from the Indians type of thing and how easily that's refuted.
I mean, we're not going to get back into this right now.
It's about Christopher Columbus, but we've done that many times on the show.
But Columbus certainly deserves to have a holiday in his honor, if not, as you said, beyond Christmas, the most important holiday.
And if some people complain that there are too many holidays on the calendar, we can always get rid of Juneteenth.
I guess you can say.
Or Martin Luther King Day.
Well, let's talk about that.
Our heroes versus their heroes.
Now, they position Rosa Parks as sort of like their answer to Christopher Columbus.
Now, if you had to compare the feats of the two, well, explain in your own words and don't try to be fancy.
But what did Christopher Columbus do?
And what did Rosa Parks do?
And let's compare the two.
Basically, Christopher Columbus revolutionized the world.
Okay.
He doubled the size of the world.
He had to be intrepid.
He had to be a very skilled navigator.
He had to be very brave to do what he did.
Well, he actually took risks.
I mean, there was real risk there.
What did Rosa Parks do, and how much risk was she under?
Well, Rosa Parks was a stew.
She was a setup.
They picked her because she had the right optics that they were looking for to head up this bus boycott movement.
But it wasn't her idea.
She was sent to the Highlander Folk School in Memphis.
I'm not in Memphis in West Tennessee.
Could have been in Memphis.
Yeah, right.
But what they did is they sent her there so that she could be drilled in communist information and techniques and whatnot.
And all she was was arrested.
She sat on a bus for a few minutes.
She literally sat down for a few minutes.
She didn't even engage in the so-called civilizing setup.
After the fact, and of course, we've talked to the arresting officer, Drew Lacker.
We've got him on tape here on TPC.
But I was just saying, she sat down for a few minutes and never even engaged in it.
She had lawyers lined up and media and paying for the government.
They had photographers, everything.
The whole thing was a theatrical production.
But we're told now that she is more deserving of adulation and praise and remembrance than a guy like this.
Are you kidding me?
Well, you're kidding me.
Look, you know, but she looks like a grand heroine compared to Martin Luther King, who is a sexual and physical person.
All right, wait, wait, wait, wait.
We're sullying Chris.
We're here to honor Columbus, not talk about all that.
Well, the point I'm trying to make, though, James, is that you don't have any of those charges that can be leveled with any veracity at all or any believability against Christopher Columbus.
was a good man now let's talk about yes he was Yes, by the history and by the record.
And we've been talking about that this hour.
We're going to talk more about it.
But an old friend of ours, longtime listener, Blowtorch Mason.
Oh, yeah.
Blowtorch Mason wrote an article years ago for our blog that I think we reprint every year.
And we'll be doing it again on Monday, by the way, folks.
So check it out.
But here's what, Blowtorch Mason.
Now, that's a hell of a name.
But he writes that Columbus Day has suffered an unprecedented downturn in importance in recent years, at least in the eyes of modern American culture.
Why?
Because Columbus Day celebrates Christopher Columbus, the first European, aka white person, to come to the Western Hemisphere and make the presence permanent.
Columbus Day, in other words, celebrates the advent of Western culture and the so-called new world of the Americas.
This, of course, is the last thing the multicultural left wants to have celebrated.
Consider, if you will, the Western Hemisphere, when Columbus discovered it in 1492, it was a huge, undeveloped wildlife preserve.
Its population stuck for the most part in a new stone age.
And despite what the left would have you believe, it was not populated by peace-loving early environmentalists.
He's right about that.
These tribes were quarreling and at war with one another constantly.
They would rape, savage, genocide, engaging cannibalism.
Every, yes, against each other incessantly.
The indigenous inhabitants were bloodthirsty primitives living in a state of nature in which life, as Hobbes famously noted, was nasty, brutish, and short.
The highest level of civilization in the hemisphere by the indigenous was that of the Aztecs, most famous for capturing young men from neighboring tribes for ritual sacrifice and ripping their still-beating hearts from their chests.
Things go immensely better under the leadership of men like Columbus.
Civilization and prosperity have flourished where men like him have gone and remained in control.
Haiti, under European custodianship, was the most prosperous colony in the New World and was described as, quote, the jewel of the Caribbean, end quote.
This ended when whites were dispossessed by the infamous slave rebellion, which culminated in the overthrow and slaughter of all whites on that island in 1802, in 1802.
And since then, Haiti has been synonymous with poverty, illiteracy, violence, disease, and superstition.
Exactly.
Take your pick, folks.
What type of society do you want?
Columbuses or?
The Haitians.
But again, we've got about a minute or two before the break.
I want to give you a chance to stretch your legs here, Keith.
Christopher Columbus, Columbus Day.
Give more to the audience on why we're doing this hour.
Well, it's because really what Columbus stands for is what America has traditionally stood for: improving the lives of people that live under our government, improving the economic circumstances of people that live under our way of doing things.
This is what Christopher Columbus brought as a great gift to the people of the Western Hemisphere.
And from there, it traveled to Africa.
It traveled everywhere.
They would not have railroads or steamships and manufacturing facilities in South Africa, for example, had it not been for the ground broken by Christopher Columbus.
Well, you could say any technological air conditioners, phones, computers.
Exactly.
Yeah, all of this stuff that are second nature to the rest of the world now, they owe a debt of gratitude to Christopher Columbus.
Well, this goes back to Buchanan, Pat Buchanan.
We've heard the grievance.
He said this on this very program.
We've heard the grievances.
Where's the gratitude?
Well, where the gratitude is, is the fact that they belie their arguments by insisting on coming to us.
I remember Jesse Jackson said, it doesn't matter where you white folks move to, we're going to follow you.
Okay?
That's what the subsequent history has been.
But they are jealous, envious, and they know that they cannot, of their own efforts, achieve that same level of civilization.
For example, in South Africa now, there are a lot of people that are nostalgic for the days of the apartheid because under apartheid, they had trains that ran.
They had an economy that ran.
They didn't have rolling blackouts.
See, you can't, you know, you can't give a Stradivarius violin to a monkey.
And that's what's happened when they try to take over Western civilization without having white people there to help them do it.
We're going to take a break.
And when we come back, a little bit more about Christopher Columbus and a little bit of your mail as we head from the third quarter into October.
So much correspondence and feedback.
You, Mr. and Mrs. TPC.
Thank you.

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 they reproduce the lie.
The more spiritual power they get.
Now look, the media is a lie multiplier.
And this multiplication gives more evil spiritual power to the beast.
That power protects the cells of the beast from prosecution.
Why isn't Hillary in prison?
She is protected.
We must restore our national relationship with God.
Truth is sacred in the kingdom.
And the government shall be upon his shoulder.
Isaiah 9, 6.
a message from christ kingdom ministries who had a good time in keith alexander in 1492 Christopher Columbus and Queen Isabella.
That's the truth.
It changed the world and it changed the history of our people and our race.
And the changes are still playing themselves out in the world today.
Blowtorch Mason, going back to his article for thepoliticalcestpool.org, the most fortunate day in the ancestral history of any American, regardless of race, color, or creed, was the day when one of their ancestors boarded a conveyance to America.
This is true whether the conveyance was a luxury ocean liner, a jet airplane, or a leaky slave ship.
And the reason America still attracts immigrants from all over the world is because America is a Western nation.
Perhaps still faintly, but still, and consequently enjoys a level of prosperity he only dreamed of in most of the world.
Even Orwellian mantras such as diversity is our greatest strength can't dispel the reality that America and the Western world has suffered an unprecedented decline that has coincided very neatly with the triumph of liberalism over the past 70 years.
And liberalism is primarily and fundamentally anti-white.
It is not benevolent, but rather malevolent.
When whites are displaced and diminished, everyone loses.
And of course, Keith, the attack and reimagining of Columbus's life and legacy, which we are celebrating tonight, is part of this all-out assault on white history and heroes.
Well, you know, if you don't believe that life for the other non-white people of the world is diminished, look at what has happened to South Africa after the fall of the apartheid government.
What is happening?
Well, Haiti's an even more glaring example.
Yeah, Haiti example, another example.
They wish they had the whites back that they murdered.
Look at cities like Memphis and Detroit and Gary, Indiana, East St. Louis, Illinois, Oakland, California.
All those places when the whites go, prosperity isn't far behind them.
Blowtorch Mason ends this piece by writing, Men like Columbus didn't endure sufferings, privations, danger, and even death, so we could, like Esau, trade our inheritance for a mess of liberal, multicoloral, multicultural pottage.
Today, more than ever, we need to ponder the significance of Columbus and Columbus Day and impress its importance upon our friends, neighbors, and children.
Columbus Day, well, this is what you said earlier, Keith, should truly rank as the most important and celebrated, one of the most important and celebrated holidays of the year.
It is.
It is truly significant.
And rather than being ashamed of our heritage, we need to be very proud of it.
The fact that every left-wing movement relies on a technique, a psychological technique that Steve King made reference to called gaslighting.
That's making you feel that you have guilt that you really don't have.
They try to make you feel guilty about being prosperous, about being smart, about being good-looking, whatever.
And white people alone out of all the people in the world seem susceptible to the depredations of gaslighting.
Gaslighting is getting you to believe a lie about yourself.
And that's what the civil rights movement is based on: the homosexual rights movement, the feminist movement, climate change.
Go down the list.
All of these things are based upon making white people feel bad about themselves when, in reality, there's no other race in the world that has more reason to feel good about itself.
Keith, you're gaslighting me right now.
Do you want to know why?
Why?
Because when you mention gaslighting, who do I want to bring up?
Come on.
Let me know.
No, you got to know.
If you don't know me by now.
Gaslighting?
No, no, you have to tell me.
The movie Gaslighting.
Oh, the movie.
Yeah, it was a 1944 movie.
Well, who do I want to mention right now?
That's all I want to know.
Ingrid Bergman.
No, come on now.
What are you doing?
Angel Lansbury.
Oh, Angela Lansbury.
Come on.
Oh, yeah.
We had that conversation.
That was her breakout role, by the way.
And Ingrid Bergman got an Academy Award for Best Actress in this movie.
Charles Boyer was great in it too.
And that movie is the source of the now widespread term called gaslighting.
Gaslighting is really the secret ingredient in every left-wing movement that has plagued and bedeviled America and Europe and outposts of Europeans like it, South Africa and Rhodesia since the end of World War II.
This is what they did.
It was 1944 when that movie started, invented the term, and gaslighting has been prominent in what has happened to the West ever since then.
Well, and then the event, long before she gave us murder, she wrote she gave us gaslighting.
And then so that's the A great actor.
She plays this Cockney servant girl, and she is just absolutely perfect in that.
She was really a talented actor.
She also gave us the vocals on We Need a Little Christmas, which I think you'll probably be hearing here in December.
Come now, what show was that from?
I don't know that.
It was a play, I think.
It was a stage production.
Well, we'll do our homework before the next day.
No, no, we'll do it before December.
We don't have to even worry about that until Christmas.
But I'll tell you this: I'll tell you this as we look forward to the rest of the year.
What an outstanding year it has been so far here on TPC.
Fall is in the air now, and I'm feeling really good about the nine months we've given you so far this year.
An outstanding October folk radio is coming your way, of course.
And we're heading into, Keith, as we just mentioned, the three of the most festive months of our annual broadcast calendar.
But when we do look back on the body of work that we've produced over the course of the last nine months, I think we're heading into autumn with a full head of steam.
And just here in the last couple of weeks, I mean, I know you were out last week, Keith, at your college, your 50th college reunion, not to date you too much, but Keith Woods and Ed Bradeau last week on the show.
Yeah.
I mean, Keith hashtag band the ADL, Woods, and Ed Bradeau, who wrote this number one Amazon best-selling book, The War on Whites.
That was a great one-two punch.
Lauren Witzke and Glenn Allen the week before, Glenn fighting in the court of public, the court of law, Lauren in the Court of Public Opinion, former Republican nominee for U.S. Senate.
You go back, I mean, just every week has been something here on TPC.
And I really love the ebb and flow of our annual tide now with coming into the holiday season, as they call it, is really important because all of those holidays are steeped in whiteness, both implicit and all the way from Halloween to Thanksgiving to Christmas in different ways.
And New Year's.
Yeah, sure.
Sure.
So it's been a wonderful year, and I want to thank you all, ladies and gentlemen, for giving us a successful.
What a sigh of relief.
Let me do this as a dramatic way.
It was a good third quarter.
It had to be the American Free Press gift subscription, am I right?
But nevertheless, it was a good third quarter.
The Biden economy has hurt our donors.
It's hurt all of us.
But the third quarter was good.
The first two quarters were a little shaky, to be polite.
Third quarter was good.
And so we have leveled things a little bit.
We'll call on you again in December with our Christmas fundraising drive.
But before we do any of that, do you want to read through a little bit of listener mail, Keith?
I want to hear it.
I'm always curious.
All right.
Well, here is a listener.
Did you ever think you'd have a listener in Santa Fe?
Yeah.
David in Santa Fe.
Thank you, David, for your support.
I avidly look forward to hearing each broadcast.
Avidly, we avidly look forward to presenting each broadcast, especially to people like David in Santa Fe who keep this work going.
Here is a listener in Essington, Pennsylvania.
James and Keith keep up the great work at the Political Cesspool.
The Political Cesspool is my favorite radio show.
Wow.
I mean, we're number one on his list.
Let's see what else we've got here.
Give me some Jeopardy music.
Okay, I've opened it.
This is a listener in Georgia.
James, I hope this makes it under the wire for the third quarter fundraising drive.
Yes, sir, it did, and we're going to get you all set up for that incentive.
But I'm going to make a second donation in the fourth quarter.
That's our Christmas fundraising drive.
Well, God bless you for that.
I said in briefly at the remote TPC broadcast at the Ambern Conference.
I enjoyed it very much.
Spoke briefly to your lovely wife and also got to sit with Keith Alexander for the banquet.
So, Keith, he was at your table.
That's right.
And I hope all is well with you, your family, and your staff.
Well, thank you, sir, from Georgia for that.
And we appreciate it, and we really appreciate the support.
We appreciate the.
It's really good to meet with people and put faces and names together and have candid conversations with our supporters because, you know, you're just like us.
You are family to us.
Oh, there's no doubt about it.
Here's the listener from New Hampshire, all over the map, TPC Nation resides.
Dear James and Keith, just to let you know that my father was born in the South.
He was born in Annapolis, Maryland in 1945.
Annapolis in the 1940s was at the time certainly considered the South.
It still is geographically southern since it is in the southern part of Maryland.
So would you consider it to be culturally southern?
Well, I don't know if we consider Memphis to be culturally southern or Jacksonville City.
It definitely was during the time of the Civil War.
They were a slave state, and they also were about to secede when Abraham Lincoln unlawfully had them arrested and put into slave, into not slave ships, but prison ships on the Potomac River.
Well, this is a listener in New Hampshire sent a very nice letter.
And my friend, we've got a very nice gift package that is coming back to you.
We're getting them out as fast as we can.
You know how we do it, folks.
We don't like to accept anything without not only telling you thank you, but also gifting you.
Yes, that's absolutely right.
And how about this?
Hi, James.
I love the show.
I started listening about a year and a half ago after Warren Bailog announced that he was going to be on the program.
I've listened to every show since then.
I'm also a former Buchanan brigader from 2000.
I met him at two campaign events when I was a student at the University of Iowa.
I really enjoy Keith's feistiness and intelligence.
Have you ever been called feisty and intelligent before?
Not in the same breath.
Keep up the good work, fellas.
Well, my friend, we have sent you something nice.
I hope by now you may have received it.
I think we shipped it out earlier this week for a Buchanan brigader.
We sent you something that I hope you might like.
For everyone else, Jim in Arizona, Ed in Canada, everybody we couldn't read.
I mean, we can't read it all.
It's just a representative sampling.
We appreciate all of the feedback.
We appreciate our friend in Arkansas, Phil in Arkansas, who says, I already received the Barnes Review, the Occidental Quarterly, and the American Free Press.
Please gift the subscription to someone else.
And that's a guy after our own heart.
We need to spread the word.
Particularly to those people unfortunate enough to be in jail now for doing nothing more than being in a tiki torch parade, for example.
We'll be right back with the third and final hour, folks.
Thank you for giving us a good third quarter.
We'll call on you again at Christmas, but we're okay for now.
