No icctocrats allowed because we've got 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:05,519 Speaker 1: a country to say, so let's get her teed. 3 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 2: Up lost. 4 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 1: With that subdgoal triple eight nine seven one Sage triple 5 00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: eight ninety seven one seven two forty three. Larry Elder, 6 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: Salem News Channel TSA agent say Somali's have sent probably 7 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,560 Speaker 1: billions in cash out of the country on their carry 8 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: on luggage. The Somali fraud, by the way, exposes the waste, 9 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 1: the inefficiency, and the dependency causing result of government welfare. 10 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: Independent journalists Nick Shirley gets trashed on CNN, which means 11 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: he has arrived JD vance at least right now has 12 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: a massive lead to become the GOP presidential nominee for 13 00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight. Billionaire Democrat candidate for governor here in California, 14 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: once single payer healthcare, says Bernie Sanders is right. Chicago 15 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:12,960 Speaker 1: mayor says President Trump has failed in every single way. 16 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: California voters may get a chance to vote for a 17 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: wealth tax for billionaires. The Federal Reserve building is way 18 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: over budget, just as President Trump predicted, Trump faces a 19 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,399 Speaker 1: no king's double standard when it comes to executive power. 20 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: I will explain. The DOJ says that there are five 21 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 1: point two million pages in the Epstein file. I repeat, 22 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: five point two million pages. Maybe that's why it's taking 23 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: so long. I don't know all of this and more 24 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: triple eight nine seventy one seven two four three. But first, 25 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: I'm sure you heard about the new ken Burns documentary 26 00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: on the American Revolution, and when he took talks about 27 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: the Founding Fathers and their attitude towards slavery. He essentially 28 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 1: says that they were hypocrites, they were frauds. Some of 29 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: them actually owned slaves, and so their goal really had 30 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: nothing to do with ultimately abolishing slavery. It is America's 31 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: original san yadabla, etc. Now, the documentary has been getting 32 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: pretty good reviews, except when it comes to how he's 33 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: handled the issue of slavery. There's a piece in Newswig 34 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: written by an executive here at Salem Lee Habib, and 35 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: it says, message to ken Burns, what Lincoln said about 36 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: our founders on slavery, And he talks about what Abraham 37 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: Lincoln said when Lincoln looked at what the Founding fathers, 38 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: the thirty nine of them said about slavery and a 39 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: couple of major speeches that he gave. In eighteen fifty seven, 40 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: he gave a speech where he condemned the Supreme Court 41 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: decision to Read Scott, which said that blacks were chattel property. 42 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: And my goodness, if you gave blacks full citizenship, full rights, 43 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: they could get guns, and lord knows what them might 44 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: do with guns, said the Chief Justice, Roger Tawny, who 45 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: by the way, was appointed by a Democrat. But I digress. 46 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: In talking about the decision and what the Founding Fathers 47 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: thought about slavery, he said, the Founding Fathers did not 48 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: mean to assert the obvious untruth that all were then 49 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: actually enjoying the equality, nor yet that they were about 50 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: to confer it immediately upon them. In fact, they had 51 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: no power to confer it. They simply meant to declare 52 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: the right so that enforcement of it might follow as 53 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: fast as circumstances should permit. 54 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 3: Close quote. 55 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: In other words, we wouldn't have had a republic have 56 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: the Founding Fathers insisted on abolishing slavery right then and there. 57 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 1: But they set forth the conditions so that it could 58 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: be abolished as soon as practical. Then there was a 59 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: famous eighteen sixty Cooper Union address in New York City. 60 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 1: It was probably a speech that made him from a 61 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: unknown person to a person of prominence. He prepared that 62 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: speech four months. He followed the thirty nine founders actions, 63 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: some of them whom went into politics their writings to 64 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 1: find out whether they acted to limit or abolished slavery, 65 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: or to preserve or expand it. Lincoln began by talking 66 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: about seventeen eighty four, the issue was the Northwest Territory 67 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,239 Speaker 1: and whether or not there would be slavery allowed there. 68 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: Of the ones that were in the legislature from the 69 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: founding fathers, there were four, three voted to prohibit slavery 70 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: in the new territory. In seventeen eighty seven, a few 71 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 1: years later the issue reappeared. Two more of the thirty 72 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: nine signers of the Future Constitution were present, and both 73 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: voted to prevent slavery in the Northwest Territory. Two years later, 74 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: seventeen eighty nine, the very first Federal Congress under the 75 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: new Constitution renewed the Northwest Ordinance, again banning slavery. In 76 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: this speech, he said, the bill went through all sorts 77 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: of stages without one word of opposition, passed both branches, quote, 78 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: said Lincoln. In this congress, there were sixteen of the 79 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: thirty nine fathers who framed the original Constitution. George Washington, 80 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: who was the President, signed the bill end of quote. 81 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: By Lincoln's final calculations, twenty three of the thirty nine 82 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: signers of the Constitution had a voting record because they 83 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: went into politics on the issue of slavery. Of the 84 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: twenty three to twenty one of them, or ninety one percent, 85 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: voted to prohibit or to limit its expansion. Of the 86 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: remaining sixteen with no record, Lincoln researched their writings. Quote. 87 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: If we should look at their acts and declarations, it 88 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: would appear to us that on the direct question of 89 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: federal control of slavery, the sixteen, if they had acted, 90 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: would have acted just as it twenty three did. In 91 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: this speech, Lincoln demonstrated, beyond any doubt, our founding fathers 92 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: believed that slavery was a moral wrong. By the way, 93 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: neither the word slave nor slavery is found in the Constitution, 94 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: it was done intentionally, said Lincoln, to quote exclude from 95 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: the Constitution the idea that there could be property in 96 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: man close quote. Here's the other problem with ken Burns's documentary. 97 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: And by the way, ken Burns did a documentary claiming 98 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: that the Center Park five were in fact innocent, they 99 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: were not as innocent. In the documentary he never interviewed 100 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: the lead investigator, who happened to be black. I did, 101 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: he did not, and the lead investigator. So there's no 102 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 1: question that the Center Park five were in fact guilty 103 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: of engaging in this rape. So I digress. In the 104 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: documentary regarding the American Revolution, he makes no mention of 105 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: the trans Saharan slave trade from the seventh to the 106 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: twentieth century, when between ten million and eighteen million Africans 107 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: were sold and transported. This is the Arab slave trade, 108 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 1: and by the way, the death rate was substantially higher 109 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: than the estimated ten to fifteen percent death rate in 110 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: the Transatlantic slave trade. Many men and women were transported 111 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: across the Sahara by the Arab slave traders on foot, 112 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: causing sometimes a ninety percent death rate, and the men 113 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: who survived were castrated to make sure they did not 114 00:08:53,480 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: engage in sex with the women. He doesn't mention that 115 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: Brazil six million slaves traded, Britain three point two million, 116 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: France one point four million Spain, one point one million 117 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: the Netherlands, over five hundred thousand America less than four 118 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 1: hundred thousand. So of the slaves that came to the 119 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 1: so called New World, less than five percent came to 120 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 1: what ultimately became America. Yet far more blacks live in America. 121 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 1: Why because there was an incentive to make sure that 122 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: they thrived and multiplied. The article in Newswig quotes a 123 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: woman named Sarah Green. She teaches African history at Cornell 124 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: wrote a book called Slave Owners of West Africa. Quote. 125 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,719 Speaker 1: Very few Americans know slavery was common throughout the world 126 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: as well as in Africa. Slavery in the United States 127 00:09:52,960 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: ended in eighteen sixty but continued in West Africa. While 128 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: eleven to twelve million people were estimated to have been 129 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: exported as slaves from West Africa during the years of 130 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: the slave trade, millions more were kept in Africa. This 131 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: is not something that many West African countries talk about. 132 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: She said. It's not exactly a proud moment because everyone 133 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 1: now realizes that slavery is not acceptable. It is as 134 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: old as human history. But abolition was a recent phenomenon 135 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 1: and can be traced to the West Triple eight ninety 136 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: seventy one sage. I'm Larry Elder Angel Tree Christmas campaign 137 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: with our friends at the non profit Prison Fellowship.

Well, Barrett, thank you very much for that. I'm 191 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: not sure the Scotus think is going to happen, but 192 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: I think it's a wonderful idea of a slogan like 193 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: that on the police cars.

Barrett appreciate that now we're just talking about slavery. 196 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: The mayor of San Francisco has just signed an ordnance 197 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: that create a reparations fund. Keep in mind California was 198 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: not a slave state, but of course that doesn't matter 199 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: that one day could grant each of the cities black 200 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: residents up to five million dollars in reparations for their 201 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: alleged historic discrimination and displacement. Passed by the Bard of 202 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: Supervisors earlier this month, signed by Democrat Mayor Daniel Lourie 203 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: right before Christmas, it establishes a legal framework for the fund, 204 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: does not allocate money or guarantee payments. The fund can 205 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: be financed, as the ordinance, through private donations, foundations, and 206 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: other non city sources. The ordinance cites a twenty twenty 207 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: three policy report that studied the harm black residents faced 208 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: endured because of discrimination in San Francisco and recommended a 209 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: five million dollar payment. Around forty six thousand black residents 210 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: live in San Francisco. Let's talk about the legacy of slavery. 211 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: The late Great Walter Williams wrote a couple of articles 212 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: pertaining to this very topic. One of them is called 213 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: the Welfare states legacy. Let me quote you just parts 214 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: of it. The number one problem among Blacks is the 215 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: effects stemming from a very weak family structure. The problems 216 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: of Black Americans resulting from the legacy of slavery, racial discrimination, 217 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: and poverty has achieved an axiomatic status, thought to be 218 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: self evident and beyond question. And then he says it 219 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: just isn't true. Number one problem effects stemming from children 220 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: raised without fathers in the home, likelier, he said, to 221 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: drop out of high school, died by suicide, have behavioral disorders, 222 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: joined gangs, commit crimes, end up in prison, and are 223 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: a likelier to live in poverty, stricten households. Question though, 224 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: is this weak black family a legacy of slavery? He 225 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: says no. In nineteen sixty, just twenty two percent of 226 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 1: black children were raised in single parent families. Fifty years later, 227 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: more than seventy percent of black children are raised in 228 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: single parent families. How is it that, if it's a 229 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: legacy of slavery, it took off decades before kicked in. 230 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: He cites a nineteen thirty thirty eight Encyclopedia of Social 231 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: Services that year nineteen thirty eight, eleven percent of black 232 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: children were born to unwared mothers. Again, didn't that now 233 00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 1: it's over seventy percent nineteen thirty eight, and now it's 234 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: over seventy percent. So the legacy of slavery just kind 235 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: of took off. When on vacation for decades. He says, 236 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 1: at one time, almost all black families were poor, regardless 237 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: of whether one or both parents were present. Today, roughly 238 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: thirty percent of Blacks are poor. He wrote this in 239 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen. However, two parent Black families are rarely poor. 240 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 1: Only about eight percent of Black married couple families live 241 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 1: in poverty. Among Black families in which both the husband 242 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 1: and wife work full time, the poverty rate is less 243 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: than five percent poverty, and Black families headed by a 244 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: single woman thirty seven percent. In my documentary Uncle Tom One, 245 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: I talk about how in nineteen forty eighty seven percent 246 00:17:55,880 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: of Blacks lived under poverty. By nineteen sixty, twenty years later, 247 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: the number had reduced to forty seven percent, a forty 248 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: point drop in twenty years, the largest growth for Blacks 249 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: over a twenty twenty year period time in the history 250 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: of this country. Why single parent households were rare A 251 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 1: strong embraced and Christian deuit day O values, a belief 252 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: in entrepreneurship, and a belief in American values, even if 253 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: those values were not being properly applied to black people. 254 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 1: Walter Williams rights in every census from nineteen. From eighteen 255 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: ninety to nineteen fifty four, blacks were also just as 256 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: active or more active than whites in the labor market, 257 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: and during that period, black teen unemployment was equal to 258 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: or less than white teen unemployment. As early as nineteen, 259 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 1: the duration of black unemployment with fifteen percent shorter than 260 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 1: that of whites. Today it is thirty percent longer. What happened. 261 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: A bunch of labor laws promoted by liberals, democrats, and 262 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: the union allies hurt black people. These kinds of things 263 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: include minimum wage, prevailing union wages, licensing, and other regulations 264 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 1: that have hurt black employment. And he concludes his article 265 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 1: by saying the damage done to black families inflicted by 266 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: these politicians, civil rights leaders, and academics who claim that 267 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: every problem facing Blacks is a result of the legacy 268 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 1: of slavery guarantees, continued perpetuation of these problems. We're going 269 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:54,919 Speaker 1: to talk also about what the Somali scandal really exposes, 270 00:19:55,560 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 1: and that's how inefficient, how wasteful, and how dependency causing 271 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 1: public welfare really is.

I was listening 311 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 2: to your segment regarding the disparity in the community, the 312 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 2: black community, and I was wondering if you were aware 313 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 2: of how much money actually gets donated to Black Lives 314 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 2: Matter and who the donors are that keep Americans divided. 315 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: Well, I've read recently that about ninety million dollars was 316 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: donated to Black Lives Matter, mostly by American corporations, and 317 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: much of the money of Horse has been misspent. 318 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 6: Uh. 319 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: The co founders are no longer running it. Several of 320 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 1: them bought mansions. They just whizzed away the money gave 321 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,439 Speaker 1: very little to the to the so called needy. It 322 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: was a big, massive ripoff, and all it was was 323 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: a big display of what I call white guilt. I've 324 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: often said, whoever said that compound interest was the greatest 325 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: force in the universe never encountered white guilt. Most of 326 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: the donations were corporations, major corporations in America feeling guilty, 327 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 1: and I guess feeling that somehow they'd curry favor with 328 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 1: black people by donating this money. It was foolish and 329 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: and Travis Travis even worse. Black Lives Matters started because 330 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: of Trayvon Martin. That's what that's what started Black Lives Matter. 331 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: And Trayvon Martin, as you know, was killed by George Zimmerman. 332 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 1: The jury found George Immerman not guilty and said race 333 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: had nothing whatever to do with it. So the whole 334 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: premise was a big fraudulent premise. 335 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,959 Speaker 2: Yes, but this is this is the other part of that. 336 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:02,879 Speaker 2: Though Charlie Kirk covered it's a twenty three. The vast, 337 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 2: the vast amount of money came from Jewish donors. 338 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 1: And that's that's probably that's probably, that's probably true. Jews 339 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 1: are are There was a book called Scar of Race 340 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: years ago, and whites, Gentiles, other racial groups, ethnic groups 341 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: were asked as negative stereotypes about black people. Are blacks 342 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: inclined to commit crime? We're blacks lavely do black? Do 343 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 1: blacks whine too much? The group least likely to say 344 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: yes to that, We're Jews. Jews are very very pro black, 345 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: very sympathetic to black people. So it wouldn't surprise me 346 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 1: if a lot of the money donated to Black Lives 347 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 1: Matter came from Jewish organizations or Jewish individuals. 348 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 4: See. 349 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 2: I think it's the exact opposite. I think they want 350 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:47,919 Speaker 2: to keep Americans divided. 351 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: I think I don't. I don't think that's I don't 352 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 1: think that's their goal. Then maybe the effect, but that's 353 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: not the goal. 354 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 2: I don't know. 355 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 1: Web. 356 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 2: It's a lot of research, slaintly Larry and people need 357 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 2: to start listening to cats. 358 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 1: Carlton, Well, if you're telling me that Jewish people are 359 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: anti black people, that's just horse crap emilk folk passionately 360 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: movingly about how he was supported by the Jewish community. Uh, 361 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: Jews have worked very closely with black people in America. 362 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: It's just not true. If your argument is that that 363 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: Jews are are somehow uh and uh antagonistic towards blacks 364 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 1: in America, please give me your evidence. Give it to me. 365 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 1: It's not there. Jews are least likely to hold hostile 366 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 1: views towards black people, least likely uh and uh. The 367 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: idea that somehow Jewish people are donating the Black Lives 368 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 1: Matter to keep us divided really based based on what now. 369 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 1: It may be well and it may be uh misguided. 370 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: The idea of donating money to Black Life Matter. If misguided. 371 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 1: I would say that to anybody who donated, no matter 372 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: whether they were Jews or Gentiles. But the idea that 373 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: Jews did it because they wanted to divide America really 374 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: would be the incentive on the part of Jews to 375 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 1: divide America. Why would Jews want to divide America? What 376 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: would be the upside? Really? That is not my experience 377 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 1: individually working with Jews, gone to school with several of them, 378 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 1: work with several of them. They are very, very very 379 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: sympathetic towards Black people, and they would like Black people 380 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 1: to do well. That's my experience. Are the individual Jews 381 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 1: just like their individuals all over America that are hostile 382 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 1: to black people, I'm sure, But for the most part, 383 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 1: Jews are most most sympathetic towards black people. We're going 384 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 1: to talk about the dependency that welfare has caused. The 385 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 1: poverty rate was gradually going down until enter Lyndon Johnson 386 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 1: with the so called Great Society, and within a few 387 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 1: years poverty in the black community flat line despite spending 388 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: more and more money on poverty programs. I'm Larry Elder 389 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:21,959 Speaker 1: Triple eight nine seven one seven two four to three, 390 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 1: triple eight nine seven one sag Larry Elders sailed them 391 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: News Channel by the way to hear about this battle 392 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 1: of the sexiest Part two. The number one female tennis 393 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 1: player played against the number six hundred and fifty male 394 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: tennis player, and her court side of the court was smaller. 395 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: His side of the court was bigger. And they ruled 396 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,919 Speaker 1: that there would only be one serve, not two serves, 397 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: which presumably would give Kim less of advantage. Key biter 398 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 1: and straight sex sixty three sixty three, And I thought 399 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 1: of a way of equalizing things, making more fair. They 400 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: should have blindfolded them both that way. Now, the business 401 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 1: of public charity as opposed to private charity is a 402 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: relatively new phenomenon in American history. Walter Williams Wrights. During 403 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: the nineteenth and early twentieth century, charities played a major role. 404 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 1: In eighteen eighty seven, religious leaders founded the charity organization Society, 405 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: which became the first United Way organization. I told you 406 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: I volunteered for United Way for one summer, full time, 407 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: one summer, he writes. In nineteen oh four, Big Brothers 408 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: Big Sisters of America started helping at risk youths reached 409 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: their full potential nineteen thirteen, the American Cancer Society, dedicated 410 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: to curing and eliminating cancer was formed. Often very wealthy 411 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 1: people like Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller created these 412 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: philanthropic organizations and gave a lot of money to these organizations. 413 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: Generosity has always been part of America's DNA. We talked 414 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: yesterday about Alexis de Tokville, a French civil servant made 415 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: a nine month journey to America in eighteen thirty one 416 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: eighteen thirty two, wrote a book called Democracy in America, 417 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 1: one of the most influential books ever written about America. 418 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,959 Speaker 1: He wrote extensively about how America form all sorts of 419 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: associations to help one another. They were volunteer organizations. Bottom line, 420 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: we Americans are the most generous people on the face 421 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: of the earth, something we ought to be proud of 422 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: before the welfare estate right. Walter Williams charity embodied both 423 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: a sense of gratitude on behalf of the recipient and 424 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: generosity on behalf of the donors. There was a sense 425 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: of civility by the recipients. They did not feel that 426 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: they were old or entitled to anything, or had a 427 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: right to money from the donor. They probably felt that 428 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: if they didn't act civilly and didn't express gratitude, they 429 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: wouldn't get assistance. In other words, writs Walter Williams, they 430 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: were reluctant to bite the hand that feeds them and 431 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: help them. Churches private organizations helping people people were much 432 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: likely to help themselves and therefore less likely to engage 433 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: in self destructive behavior. Part of the message, writes Walter Williams, 434 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,239 Speaker 1: of the charitable groups back then, was will help you 435 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: if you help yourself. Enter the federal government, civility and 436 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: gratitude towards the benefactor was no longer required. In fact, 437 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 1: one could be arrogant and hostile towards the donors e taxpayers, 438 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: as well as towards as civil servants who dish out 439 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: the benefits. The handouts recipients god were no longer called charity. 440 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: They were called entitlements, as if somehow they were earned. Now, 441 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: Walter Williams writes, there's virtually no material poverty in America. 442 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: Eighty percent of households that the Census Bureau calls poor 443 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: have air conditioning, Nearly three quarters have a car or truck, 444 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: Thirty one percent have two or more two thirds have 445 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 1: cable or satellite TV, have have at least one computer, 446 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 1: Forty two percent own their own homes. Some outright, he said, 447 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: what we really have in our nation now, it's not 448 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: material poverty, but poverty of the spirit, where people are 449 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: making unwise choices, leading pathological lives, aided and abetted by 450 00:31:55,400 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: the welfare state. Again, nineteen thirty eight, eleven percent of 451 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: black children and three percent of white children were born 452 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,239 Speaker 1: to unwear mothers. Today, that is seventy five percent and 453 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: thirty percent, respectively. Of all the talk we've been talking 454 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: about regarding the theft of as much as eight or 455 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 1: nine billion dollars just in Minnesota alone. Are you hearing 456 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: anybody discuss whether or not government should be in the 457 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: business of welfare anyway? In the downside, apart from the 458 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: fact it's easier to steal from the government than from 459 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: a private charity, that you're more likely to remain dependent. 460 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 1: I gave you a staff yesterday about how many Somali 461 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: families have been in America over ten years and can 462 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: barely speak English. Do you really think all this money 463 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 1: you're giving to these Somalian families will benefit them down 464 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 1: the road, or will to make them more entitled, more dependent, 465 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: less self sufficient prosperous. I talked yesterday about a book 466 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: called The Tragedy of American Compassion by a guy named 467 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: Marvin Olaski. There is a free market thing tank that 468 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 1: did a review of about this book, and in the 469 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: book he says government handouts of aid do not better 470 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: the individual. Instead, they foster laziness and irresponsibility. Personal beliefs 471 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 1: and personal values play a much bigger role in the 472 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 1: economic outcome of one's life. During the early part of 473 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: our country, charity was done by individuals, churches, nonprofits. It 474 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 1: was given in the spirit of generosity, with the idea 475 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: that people who are poor should be upwardly mobile, should 476 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: be self sufficient, should alter behavior in order to continue 477 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: receiving the charity and to improve yourself. That is no 478 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: longer how we see things. He talks about the growth 479 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,399 Speaker 1: of cities in the nineteenth century and how people came 480 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: together to help the poor. A Scottish theologian named Thomas 481 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 1: Chalmers criticized the government run indiscriminate what he called outdoor 482 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: relief established in England. It created dependency. He said, we're 483 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 1: going to talk more about that when we return triple 484 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 1: eight ninety seven one seven two four three. I'm lariyolder 485 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 1: triple ate nine seven one s a g E Triple 486 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,360 Speaker 1: eight nineteven one seven two forty three lariod stale to 487 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 1: loose channel. I'm going to return to the damaged public 488 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: welfare has done to the country in a minute, but 489 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: first I want to say something more about the gentleman 490 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: who claimed that the reason Jews gave so much money 491 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: to black lives matter. And by the way, we have 492 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: no idea how much they gave. You're making an assumption 493 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 1: that they did it in order to divide America. Do 494 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: you have any idea of a man named Julius Rosenwald? 495 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 1: Probably not. Julius Rosenwald was a wealthy man, one of 496 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 1: the co founders of Sears and Roebuck, who worked very 497 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:36,839 Speaker 1: closely with Booker T. Washington to establish as many as 498 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: five thousand schools in the South at one time. Of 499 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: the black kids who went to school, one in four 500 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: was educated in a rosen Wald school, something like six 501 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: hundred thousand kids in thirteen fourteen fifteen Southern states. This 502 00:35:54,160 --> 00:36:00,080 Speaker 1: is an example of the generosity of Jews towards blacks. 503 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 1: Also regarding Jews. In general, most people, once they become 504 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 1: more and more affluent, tend to vote Republican, in part 505 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 1: because Republicans tend to lower taxes, not Jews. No matter 506 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 1: how wealthy Jews are, at least historically, they've retained their 507 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 1: allegiance to the Democratic Party. Now, if you're assuming the 508 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:28,800 Speaker 1: Democratic Party is the party of racial justice, I'm putting 509 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 1: that in air quotes the party that wears the white 510 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,479 Speaker 1: hat and the fight for racial justice. You're talking about 511 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: Jews who retain their affiliation with the Democratic Party even 512 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 1: as they become more and more affluent. What does that 513 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: tell you? Again, may be misguided, but certainly it's not 514 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 1: something that suggests hostility towards the black people. In fact, 515 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 1: it suggests the opposite. The comment that was made is 516 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:57,919 Speaker 1: extremely historically inaccurate and extremely unfair. Now why certain people 517 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 1: are saying this, I have no idea, but it ain't true. 518 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 1: Now we come back. Jd Vance right now has a massive, 519 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 1: massive lead to become the GOP presidential nominee. In twenty 520 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 1: twenty eight, a billionaire Democrat candidate for governor now wants 521 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 1: single payer says he was wrong that Brindey Sammers was 522 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,760 Speaker 1: right we should have single payer. The Mayor of Chicago, 523 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 1: one of the most incompetent politicians I've ever seen, says 524 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: that Trump has failed every single way. Really, border secured 525 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 1: in thirty days, inflation core inflation two point four percent 526 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: GDP last quarter four point three percent. Negotiated payment reimbursement 527 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: to America for aid given to Ukraine and its war 528 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: against Russia. Negotiated the release of all the hostages and 529 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:04,320 Speaker 1: their remains except for one remain that's still there. Stock 530 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 1: market record highs. Crime in DC down dramatically because of 531 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: the deployment of the National Guard. Not too shabby for 532 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 1: not quite a full year. Triple eight ninety seven one 533 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 1: s A g E. I'm Larry Elder. 534 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 7: Do not leave town, but let's get. 535 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 8: Her teed up to my. 536 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 1: Triple late nine seven one s A g E. Triple 537 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,760 Speaker 1: eight nine seven one seven two four three Larry Elder, 538 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 1: Salem News Channel. As mentioned a few minutes ago, the 539 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:57,760 Speaker 1: Mayor of Chicago, whose approval rating recently was in single digits, 540 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 1: that says Trump has been a failure every single way. Now, 541 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: I know we have Trump arrangement syndrome in America, but 542 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 1: even the person that's got the biggest case has to 543 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,839 Speaker 1: concede at least about the borders. That's why they don't 544 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:18,480 Speaker 1: talk about it anymore. Thirty days. We're told for four 545 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 1: years that this was as secure as it can get 546 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: without quote comprehensive immigration reform. Well there has not been 547 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 1: any comprehensive immigration reform. The border is secured in thirty days, 548 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: in the most secure way in the history of this country. 549 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 1: Even people hate Donald Trump no longer talk about the 550 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 1: borders because they can't die that. What about the Iran 551 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 1: strike setting back to the nuclear program, Lord knows how 552 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:52,840 Speaker 1: many years? And then, of course, I guess I said earlier, 553 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 1: negotiating the release of the hostages in Gaza and the remains, 554 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 1: forcing the European allies to pick up the expense of 555 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: the war between Ukraine and Russia, forcing our NATO allies 556 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:16,319 Speaker 1: to spend five percent of their GDP on defense, when 557 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 1: Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush complained they weren't 558 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 1: spending two percent. Getting rid of DEI and the federal 559 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 1: government reduction of crime, as I mentioned in Washington, d C. 560 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 1: Homicides down fifty percent, carjackings down sixty percent, and many 561 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 1: of these homicides are committed against the very black people 562 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 1: that people on the left claimed that they care about. 563 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 1: Strong support in the big, beautiful bill for school choice 564 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 1: given the awful lousy education blackly getting K through twelve 565 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:58,360 Speaker 1: and urban America gives more and more options for inner 566 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:04,880 Speaker 1: city parents. Stock market record highs. Sixty percent of Americans 567 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 1: have money in the stock market, either directly or through 568 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 1: their pensions or mutual funds. Four point through per four 569 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 1: point three percent GDP growth the last quarter whins the 570 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: last time you saw that? Inflation? Core inflation two point 571 00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:32,800 Speaker 1: four two point seven including food and energy gas prices 572 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 1: five year low. Is this saying on? And yet some 573 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 1: polls have his approval ratings at record lows for a 574 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 1: president at this juncture in his second term. Why because ABC, 575 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:54,959 Speaker 1: NBCCBS still large number of Americans get their primary source 576 00:41:55,000 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: of news from them. Pound this man relentlessly, no kings. 577 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 1: He's ruling like a dictator. Never mind presidents in the 578 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: past have used their authority to impose tariffs. Nobody said anything. 579 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 1: Presidents in the past have used their authority for military intervention. 580 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:17,919 Speaker 1: How about Obama bombing Libya, joining France and the UK 581 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:22,719 Speaker 1: and the UK to bomb Libya. Anybody suggests that he 582 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:26,360 Speaker 1: was deserving of being impeached for that, I don't remember it. 583 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: If somebody said so. Immigration authority been used by other 584 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 1: presidents in the past. Trump does it, and he's a dictator, 585 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 1: he's a fascist, he's a Nazi, he's a hitler. It 586 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 1: so incredibly, incredibly unfair. Now, before we get back to 587 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: what the welfare state has done and why we ought 588 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 1: to be talking about what the welfare state has done, 589 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:56,319 Speaker 1: and how inefficient and ineffective government welfare is one more 590 00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: common about Black Lives Matter. As I said, Black Lives 591 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 1: Matter was started because of the death of Trayvon Martin. 592 00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 1: Trayvon Martin wasn't even killed by a police officer. He 593 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 1: was a neighborhood self appointed watchman named George Zimmerman, and 594 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:23,400 Speaker 1: George Enmen was charged with murder. His defense was self defense. 595 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:29,400 Speaker 1: The jury unanimously agreed found him not guilty. There were 596 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,280 Speaker 1: no blacks in the jury, but there was one alternate, 597 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: and that alternate said the jury was just and that 598 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,759 Speaker 1: race had nothing to do with it. So this whole 599 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 1: organization was founded upon that premise, and the premise, of course, 600 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:44,720 Speaker 1: is that black people are being mistreated by the police. 601 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,839 Speaker 1: Policed are using deadly force against black people just because 602 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 1: they're black, And we talked about this now for a 603 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 1: number of years. It is a big fat lie. Not 604 00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 1: only is it a big fat lie, it is inducing 605 00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 1: people not to comply, not to cooperate, because, after all, 606 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 1: if you're pulled over, your young black man, if you 607 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: believe a lie, why should you cooperate. The police are 608 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:14,040 Speaker 1: out to get you, so normal interactions end up becoming 609 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 1: deaf con one and people end up getting killed who 610 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 1: otherwise would not have been killed had they simply cooperated. 611 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:28,840 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter was founded by self described trained Marxist 612 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:33,879 Speaker 1: I mentioned before in my documentary Uncle Tom, I talked 613 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: about how black people kept moving forward after slavery in 614 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 1: the face of discrimination Jim Crow Why because it was 615 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 1: un likely, very rare for a black kid to be 616 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 1: raised without a mother and a father in the home. 617 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 1: A strong belief in entrepreneurship, a strong belief in Judaeo 618 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 1: Christian values, and a strong belief in American values, even 619 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 1: if those values were not being fairly applied to blacks. 620 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter, again founded by self described train Marxists. 621 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 1: Marks by definition did not believe in capitalism. He was 622 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:26,520 Speaker 1: an atheist, also an anti Semite, and of course he 623 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:29,799 Speaker 1: didn't believe in Judeo Christian values. So every single thing 624 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 1: that allowed black people to keep moving forward is rejected 625 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: by Black Lives Matter. Even the Nuclear Intact family was 626 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 1: denigrated by Black Lives Matter on their website until they 627 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 1: took it down. So every single thing I mentioned, and 628 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:48,840 Speaker 1: Uncle Tom one that allowed black people to continue to 629 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:54,440 Speaker 1: grow and thrive in unbelievably hostile conditions are under attacked 630 00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 1: by organization like Black Lives Matter. You have got to 631 00:45:56,719 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 1: be kidding me now. This review of this book called 632 00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:10,840 Speaker 1: The Tragedy of American Compassion, a book by Marvin Olaski, 633 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:17,240 Speaker 1: talks about how a man, a Scottish theologian named Thomas 634 00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 1: chalmera l mers critic of government run welfare from eighteen 635 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 1: nineteen to eighteen twenty three, he developed a plan divided 636 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:35,920 Speaker 1: his parish into twenty five districts, each the responsibility of 637 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 1: a deacon who investigate those in that district who were 638 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:46,560 Speaker 1: truly genuinely needy. The effects were remarkable. Charitable grip giving 639 00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:49,840 Speaker 1: increase because donors were confident that their money would be 640 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:58,400 Speaker 1: used wisely and this caused the poor to improve their habits, 641 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,960 Speaker 1: and the number of poor in the parish as a consequence, 642 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 1: went down, not up, went down. By the middle of 643 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 1: the century, Olaski writes in this book there were charitable 644 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:18,760 Speaker 1: societies in every major American city. They encouraged the poor 645 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: to embrace religious values, and up until the nineteen forties, 646 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 1: this pretty much was the way people viewed charity and 647 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 1: how to deal with the poor. Then later on the 648 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 1: century came this view that, well, the rich get richer, 649 00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:41,920 Speaker 1: the poor get poor. It's the survival of the fittest. 650 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:46,280 Speaker 1: It's so incredibly unfair, And over time the view became 651 00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 1: prominent that charity should be replaced by government welfare. That 652 00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:57,720 Speaker 1: went up on steroids during the nineteen thirties with FDR 653 00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 1: and his New Deal, shift. 654 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 7: In the government's roll. 655 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:07,920 Speaker 1: And its shift in people's attitudes towards personal responsibility, hard work, 656 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: and rugged individualism. In nineteen sixties, another big shoot in 657 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:19,440 Speaker 1: that direction Lynn and Johnson and the Great Society. So 658 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: now what we've done is to incentivize women to marry 659 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 1: the government and incentivize men to abandon their financial and 660 00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 1: more responsibility, and poverty has now flatlined. Despite the large 661 00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 1: amounts of money spent at the federal level and at 662 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:43,319 Speaker 1: the local level. Back in twenty twelve, the Kao Institute 663 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,960 Speaker 1: found that poverty had risen to fifteen point one percent 664 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,720 Speaker 1: in twenty twelve, despite one hundred and twenty six different 665 00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 1: federal programs, not counting state and local programs, amounting to 666 00:48:56,680 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 1: spending roughly sixty one thousand dollars for a poor family 667 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,520 Speaker 1: of three. They could simply write them a check rather 668 00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:06,160 Speaker 1: than do all these programs that make them more dependent. 669 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:12,879 Speaker 1: I'm Larry Elder.

There was a book came out 703 00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 6: in the late nineties by a black American journalist for 704 00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 6: the Washington It was called out of America when he 705 00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 6: was sent to Nairobi to head the bureau there to 706 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:08,319 Speaker 6: cover Are you. 707 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:12,480 Speaker 1: Sure what's called out of America and not out of Africa? 708 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:12,520 Speaker 9: Yeah? 709 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 6: No, yeah, it was out of America. But it was 710 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 6: a take on that earlier title because the book was 711 00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,600 Speaker 6: about how he realized that he was an American. 712 00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:22,719 Speaker 1: Because yeah, yeah, I read the book, could relate to it. Yeah, 713 00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,359 Speaker 1: And the book basically talks about how how slavery could 714 00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 1: not have taken place without the complicity of African chiefs 715 00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 1: engaging in slave trading. Yes, yes, that's what the book 716 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:33,399 Speaker 1: was about. 717 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,600 Speaker 6: He discovering, well he would know. He was talking about 718 00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:40,640 Speaker 6: the the this culture of corruption, like he couldn't get 719 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:44,280 Speaker 6: typewriters and ribbons and paper without paying bribes to everybody. 720 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:48,759 Speaker 6: And I was thinking that this stuff in Minneapolis. I mean, 721 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 6: like white democrats just found groups of Somalis very easy 722 00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:55,600 Speaker 6: to get them to tap into this system to get 723 00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:57,640 Speaker 6: money because every you know, everything was just a way 724 00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:58,359 Speaker 6: to get money from. 725 00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:01,879 Speaker 1: Well, I don't. I don't think that the Somalis need 726 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 1: any help from white people to engage in the fraud 727 00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:07,520 Speaker 1: that they're engaging in. But the book that you're talking 728 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:10,359 Speaker 1: about talked about how slavery would not have taken place 729 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:15,279 Speaker 1: without the complicity of black chiefs who captured slaves and 730 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:22,480 Speaker 1: raids and sold them to European slavers and Arab slavers. 731 00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:27,359 Speaker 1: And more people remained in Africa as slaves than were 732 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 1: either sold to the Europeans or to Arab slavers, and 733 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 1: that's something that a lot of people don't like talking about. 734 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:40,240 Speaker 1: There's a book starring Viola Davis called The Warrior Queen 735 00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:45,040 Speaker 1: where a tribe in Africa called it Dahomee, and there 736 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:47,799 Speaker 1: was a tribe called the dahome and they were warriors 737 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:51,799 Speaker 1: of women. But the movie shows how the enemy were 738 00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 1: the European slavers, when in fact they were partners. So 739 00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:59,960 Speaker 1: it's a big fat lie masquerading its history. The Dahoma 740 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:07,120 Speaker 1: were vicious, vicious warriors, and they raided villages, often killing men, 741 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 1: women and children and capturing slaves and trading them with 742 00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:18,279 Speaker 1: European and Arab slavers. That's the truth. And there was 743 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:24,520 Speaker 1: a prominent movie in the seventies called Roots and Kuddakinte, 744 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:29,120 Speaker 1: the star of the series, was captured on a raid 745 00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:33,919 Speaker 1: that was led by whites of Africans who captured him. 746 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 1: As if that's how it happened. Whites did not have 747 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:40,719 Speaker 1: immunity on diseases that they would have otherwise contracted had 748 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,239 Speaker 1: they gone into the interior of Africa. And think how 749 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 1: inefficient that is. You get him one at a time 750 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:48,799 Speaker 1: when they're walking down the road trying to get a 751 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:50,320 Speaker 1: wood for it to make a drum, which is what 752 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 1: he was trying to do. No, they were sold in 753 00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 1: mass either captured in war or captured in raids and 754 00:53:57,040 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 1: then sold to European and Arab slavers. That's the truth. 755 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 1: And by the way, there was no major moral revulsion 756 00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 1: to slavery. Slavery is as old as history itself. It 757 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 1: was the West that began having moral objections to it, 758 00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:16,320 Speaker 1: religious objections to it. And in some parts of the 759 00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:18,840 Speaker 1: world slavery is going on right now as we speak, 760 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:20,839 Speaker 1: in some parts of the world, in the Middle East 761 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 1: and in Africa. All right, let's get back to the point. 762 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:30,800 Speaker 1: Did Tokio wrote another book other than After Democracy in 763 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:35,400 Speaker 1: America called Memoirs on Paperism, and traveling around the world 764 00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:40,960 Speaker 1: was expensive. Few people traveled, but he was able to travel, 765 00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 1: and the wealthiest country at the time was Great Britain. However, 766 00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 1: when he traveled, he noticed there were more poor people 767 00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:53,000 Speaker 1: on the streets begging in Britain than anywhere else he'd been. 768 00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,640 Speaker 1: And it turned out Great Britain had a no questions 769 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:59,440 Speaker 1: asked welfare program, one of the first, if not the first, 770 00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 1: of any major country in history. And he determined that 771 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:10,440 Speaker 1: there was a dependency that was created despite the good intentions. 772 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:12,879 Speaker 1: And the issue is how do you help people who 773 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:19,879 Speaker 1: are needy without making them dependent? And that's the problem here. 774 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,200 Speaker 1: Do you really believe that all these programs are helping 775 00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:26,120 Speaker 1: the Somali community? Not only is a great deal of 776 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:29,880 Speaker 1: fraud going on, but apart from that, basically telling people 777 00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:34,279 Speaker 1: that they're entitled to things without having to work for them, 778 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:36,719 Speaker 1: and government will give them to you with no questions asked, 779 00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 1: without having to require you to change your behavior to 780 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 1: embrace the kinds of values it takes in order to 781 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 1: escape poverty. You really believe that down the road the 782 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:48,640 Speaker 1: Somali community is going to be better off because of this, 783 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:52,760 Speaker 1: They're going to be worse off. So not only is 784 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,799 Speaker 1: it inefficient, not only is it easier to steal money 785 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:57,839 Speaker 1: when it's government money because nobody's gonna yell on screen 786 00:55:57,840 --> 00:56:00,480 Speaker 1: because it's not coming out of their pocket. The very 787 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:03,879 Speaker 1: people that these programs are intended to benefit will be 788 00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 1: worse off. Walter Williams also talks about the way government 789 00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:22,400 Speaker 1: intervenes and takes away freedom and basically extracts money out 790 00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:24,319 Speaker 1: of the pockets of people to give it to somebody else, 791 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:34,000 Speaker 1: making the giver and the given worse off. This whole 792 00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:40,960 Speaker 1: business about the theft of all these poverty programs in Minnesota, 793 00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:45,040 Speaker 1: in Ohio, in California, believe me, all over the country. 794 00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,440 Speaker 1: All it calls Americans to sit up and say, what's 795 00:56:48,640 --> 00:56:51,080 Speaker 1: going on here? There must be a better way to 796 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,200 Speaker 1: help them poor and the needy than through government programs. 797 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:57,839 Speaker 1: They're easy to steal from, where there's no accountability, whether 798 00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:04,440 Speaker 1: the money is wasted, and where the effects are negative 799 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:07,080 Speaker 1: as opposed to positive. That's a discussion we are to 800 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 1: be having, in addition to making sure that we round 801 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:12,760 Speaker 1: up the people who are stealing and bring them to justice, 802 00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 1: but my suspicion is very little will be done. There'll 803 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:20,160 Speaker 1: be some people that'll be arrested, but by definition, it 804 00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:22,640 Speaker 1: is easy to rip off government programs because it's not 805 00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:27,920 Speaker 1: anybody else. It's money. It's taxpayers money.

You can just go to YouTube 834 00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:04,480 Speaker 1: and type that in and you watch it yourself. It's 835 00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:07,920 Speaker 1: about fifteen minutes long. A couple of things. Ken Burns 836 00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:09,960 Speaker 1: did a documentary where he claims that they were innocent. 837 00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:12,760 Speaker 1: A woman named av Duverne did a movie which he 838 00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:15,600 Speaker 1: claimed they were innocent. Now, in both cases, they claimed 839 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:20,320 Speaker 1: that the boys were arrested, that they were denied opportunity 840 00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:23,320 Speaker 1: for water, denied opportunity for to go to the restroom, 841 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 1: They were without their parents, big fat lie. Every single 842 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:28,880 Speaker 1: one with with his or her parent. The only one 843 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:31,120 Speaker 1: that wasn't was somebody who lied about his age when 844 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 1: they found out he was a miner. They stopped talking 845 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:35,040 Speaker 1: to him. They gave them food, they gave them water. 846 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 1: The lead lawyer, lead prosecutor, Linda Fairchild, found a lawsuit 847 00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:43,040 Speaker 1: against one or both of them because of the lies 848 00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:45,000 Speaker 1: that was in it. And I'm the only one of 849 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:48,360 Speaker 1: those two people that interviewed the lead detective who happened 850 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:50,400 Speaker 1: to be black. He's the only one who wasn't sued 851 00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:53,160 Speaker 1: by the Central Park five. Why because their argument was 852 00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:56,920 Speaker 1: New York was racist and that they were railroaded because 853 00:59:56,960 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 1: of racism. Even though the lead investigator was a black person. 854 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:03,400 Speaker 1: He was not sued. Why because it undermined their bogus 855 01:00:03,840 --> 01:00:08,360 Speaker 1: notion that somehow they were railroaded uh and forced into 856 01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:12,000 Speaker 1: uh this case just because they were black and the 857 01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:15,080 Speaker 1: New York Police Department was racists. It's a big fat lie. 858 01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:22,120 Speaker 10: Wow, that's incredible. You remember the show Law and Order Criminal. 859 01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 1: And oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. 860 01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:25,520 Speaker 10: Thattrapolated that. 861 01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, I know, I know. They would they would 862 01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:30,600 Speaker 1: use they would use current events, including the Center Park five, 863 01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:33,360 Speaker 1: and make all sorts of episodes about it. Chris, I'm 864 01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 1: telling you, if you look at my documentary and find 865 01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:38,320 Speaker 1: out what they were charged with. By the way, they 866 01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:40,520 Speaker 1: claimed that there was no physical evidence. With plenty of 867 01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:44,080 Speaker 1: physical evidence, DNA was relatively in its infancy, and they 868 01:00:44,080 --> 01:00:47,400 Speaker 1: were charged with being in concert with which is the 869 01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:50,120 Speaker 1: same thing as committing the rape itself. One of the 870 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:53,160 Speaker 1: sisters of the Center Park five said to the police 871 01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:56,120 Speaker 1: he didn't rape her. All he did was hold her down. Well, 872 01:00:56,120 --> 01:01:01,160 Speaker 1: that's being in concert. And the top two lawyers who 873 01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:05,680 Speaker 1: prosecuted never agreed with their exoneration. To this day, they 874 01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:08,640 Speaker 1: will tell you the Central Park five are in fact guilty. 875 01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:11,040 Speaker 1: We wouldn't have changed a thing. They were guilty. And 876 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:14,240 Speaker 1: also there's another thing too, this business about they were 877 01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:18,040 Speaker 1: interrogated without their parents being there. All the interrogations are 878 01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:20,680 Speaker 1: on YouTube. You can watch them. They're boring. The boys 879 01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 1: sit there, they're asked questions, they're asked questions. It's dull. 880 01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:26,680 Speaker 1: But they were not railroaded, they were not browbeaten. They 881 01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:29,680 Speaker 1: were not denied food, water, anything like that. It's a 882 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:32,480 Speaker 1: big fat lie. 883 01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 10: Wow, that's incredible. I even remember the interview is infamous 884 01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 10: interview with President Trump when he made his comments. 885 01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:46,080 Speaker 1: About it, right right, he took out a full page 886 01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:48,320 Speaker 1: ad and said they should get the death penalty, and 887 01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:50,640 Speaker 1: he was considered to be racist for saying that and 888 01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:53,120 Speaker 1: all that. I'm not saying they deserve the death penalty. 889 01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 1: I'm just telling you that they were guilty of the 890 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:58,840 Speaker 1: charges that they were facing. I'll give you another one, Chris, 891 01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:01,080 Speaker 1: another big fat lie. Do you ever see the movie 892 01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:03,200 Speaker 1: Hurricane with Denzel Washington. 893 01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:07,280 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I have, Yes, big fat. 894 01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:10,800 Speaker 1: Lie Reuben Hurricane Carter murdered. I think it was three people, 895 01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:14,280 Speaker 1: and the whole movie was about he was railroaded by 896 01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:19,480 Speaker 1: this racist prosecutor. Big fat lie. There's a website called 897 01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:23,640 Speaker 1: graphicwitness dot com slash Carter. Graphic witness dot com slash Carter. 898 01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:26,040 Speaker 1: You can. It'll probably take you a whole two days 899 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 1: to read all the stuff on there, including they took 900 01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:31,600 Speaker 1: a polygraph and flunked it. There's plenty of physical evidence. 901 01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:34,600 Speaker 1: It's a big fat lie. He was guilty. And by 902 01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:36,760 Speaker 1: the way, when he got out of prison after fifteen years, 903 01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:40,640 Speaker 1: the local newspaper in New Jersey just took place in Patterson, 904 01:02:40,680 --> 01:02:44,000 Speaker 1: New Jersey, offered him a chance to take a polygraph. 905 01:02:44,080 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 1: He refused to take it. By the way, he was 906 01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:48,800 Speaker 1: in prison and also given a chance to take a polygraph. 907 01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:50,480 Speaker 1: If you pass it, will you will let you go 908 01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:53,080 Speaker 1: after being behind bars for like eight or nine years, 909 01:02:53,200 --> 01:02:55,240 Speaker 1: and he didn't do it. Now, if you're behind bars, 910 01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 1: you didn't do it. And somebody says to you, Okay, 911 01:02:57,360 --> 01:02:59,680 Speaker 1: take a polygraph. You passed it. I'll cut you loose. 912 01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:02,640 Speaker 1: Don't do it, Chris, talk to me. 913 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:08,400 Speaker 10: Wow, I'm just blearning. I'm just blearning. It reminds me 914 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:10,440 Speaker 10: about the Preppy Murder. 915 01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:12,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, we gotta go, Chris. But you look at my 916 01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:14,880 Speaker 1: documentary and you call me on Monday and tell me 917 01:03:14,920 --> 01:03:24,480 Speaker 1: what's what. I'm Larry o'k Triple eight nine seven one 918 01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:26,880 Speaker 1: s A G. E. Triple eight nine seven one seven 919 01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:30,000 Speaker 1: two four three Larry Elders, Salem News Channel. Chris, if 920 01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:32,400 Speaker 1: you're still listening, one more thing about the movie Hurricane 921 01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 1: it was. It was a very good movie. By the way, 922 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:38,400 Speaker 1: Denzel Washington was great. The whole movie starts out with 923 01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:41,440 Speaker 1: a lie, if you might If you recall, the movie 924 01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:45,000 Speaker 1: starts out with Hurricane Carter having a fight with a 925 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:49,360 Speaker 1: guy named Joey g Rdello, a very important fight and 926 01:03:49,480 --> 01:03:52,439 Speaker 1: in it, gr Dello is getting pummeled. But they gave 927 01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:56,440 Speaker 1: the decision to h I'm part of it. They gave 928 01:03:56,480 --> 01:03:59,240 Speaker 1: the decision uh to g r Dello even though he 929 01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:04,440 Speaker 1: was getting pumbled. The fight is on YouTube, and if 930 01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:08,080 Speaker 1: you watch the fight as I did, it's clear that 931 01:04:08,160 --> 01:04:13,120 Speaker 1: Giardello won that fight. It wasn't a slaughter, but it's 932 01:04:13,160 --> 01:04:16,240 Speaker 1: clear he won the fight. Yet the movie made it 933 01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:18,960 Speaker 1: appear that he was getting his butt kicked and that 934 01:04:19,040 --> 01:04:22,640 Speaker 1: a racist group of referees gave the judges gave the 935 01:04:22,640 --> 01:04:26,240 Speaker 1: fight to gr Dello even though he didn't deserve it. Untrue. 936 01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:30,600 Speaker 1: The whole movie began with a phony premise. Now, one night, 937 01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:32,919 Speaker 1: I was talking about this when I was at another 938 01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:36,320 Speaker 1: station when the movie came out, and the character who 939 01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:38,920 Speaker 1: played Lesra Martin. You might recall it was a Canadian 940 01:04:38,960 --> 01:04:42,640 Speaker 1: guy who read Hurricane Carter's book called The Sixteenth Round, 941 01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:46,440 Speaker 1: where he argued that he was an innocent man railroaded 942 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:49,760 Speaker 1: by a racist criminal justice system. He played a character 943 01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:52,440 Speaker 1: named Lesler Martin. He called the show. He said, Larry, 944 01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:54,720 Speaker 1: I'm the actor who played this character, and here you 945 01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:57,600 Speaker 1: are saying that the whole movie is false. I said, 946 01:04:57,640 --> 01:05:01,160 Speaker 1: yes it is. There's a website ca all Graphic witness 947 01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:06,480 Speaker 1: dot com slash Carter. I dare you to spend your 948 01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 1: time looking at it. You call me tomorrow night he 949 01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:12,800 Speaker 1: did his credit called me the next night. He said, 950 01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 1: I am embarrassed. I'm ashamed. Physical evidence, eye witnessed evidence, 951 01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:23,760 Speaker 1: the polygraph that he failed, and on and on and 952 01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:27,240 Speaker 1: on and on. By the way, the cops pulled Reuben 953 01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:31,200 Speaker 1: Hurricane Carter over shortly after three people were murdered, and 954 01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:34,640 Speaker 1: they knew him, they liked him, they're respect him and 955 01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:37,440 Speaker 1: let him go. So the idea that right away he 956 01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:42,280 Speaker 1: was targeted is just complete and total bs. Now, my 957 01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 1: documentary about the Central Park five is called The Truth 958 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:48,959 Speaker 1: about the Central Park five. So type in the Truth 959 01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:51,840 Speaker 1: about Central Park five Larry Elder and Epic Times E 960 01:05:51,960 --> 01:05:56,440 Speaker 1: P O. C. H.

Ken Burns, I you know, I could never 970 01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:30,600 Speaker 11: watch anything that he's produced anymore with any amount of 971 01:06:30,640 --> 01:06:33,120 Speaker 11: confidence that he's telling the truth, that this is an 972 01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:34,080 Speaker 11: honest betrayal. 973 01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:37,320 Speaker 1: What's happened, now, Detective, you were there that night, did 974 01:06:37,320 --> 01:06:39,600 Speaker 1: you and your partner rest the people that became the 975 01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:42,760 Speaker 1: Central Park five? All five of them we had. 976 01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:47,000 Speaker 11: What happened was we were looking for the group of 977 01:06:48,120 --> 01:06:51,960 Speaker 11: teenagers who were wilding, who were rioting, I mean, and 978 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:54,840 Speaker 11: that's the best way to describe it. They were rioting 979 01:06:54,960 --> 01:07:00,040 Speaker 11: in the park. We came upon twenty to thirty of 980 01:06:59,880 --> 01:07:05,200 Speaker 11: them after they had assaulted the teacher, John Loughlin and 981 01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:08,760 Speaker 11: beat him so badly that both of his eye sockets 982 01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 11: were shattered and his skull was cracked. He wasn't even 983 01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:16,240 Speaker 11: able to identify who it was that beat him because 984 01:07:16,240 --> 01:07:18,600 Speaker 11: he couldn't see. His head looked like it was dunked 985 01:07:18,600 --> 01:07:24,920 Speaker 11: in a bucket of blood. We captured five of the 986 01:07:24,960 --> 01:07:28,680 Speaker 11: thirty that we observed because the group, of course started 987 01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:32,120 Speaker 11: running when we went to apprehend them. And two of 988 01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:37,560 Speaker 11: the five were Kevin Richardson and Raymond Santana, part of 989 01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:39,600 Speaker 11: the Central Park five. 990 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:41,640 Speaker 2: And and just. 991 01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:45,920 Speaker 11: Sort of you understand, as we observed the group we observed, 992 01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:52,600 Speaker 11: we watched Raymond Santana with Steven Lopez leading the group. 993 01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:53,720 Speaker 9: They were. 994 01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:57,880 Speaker 11: I could see them turning around and addressing them, almost 995 01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:00,560 Speaker 11: as though they were leading the pack, and as they 996 01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:08,840 Speaker 11: were walking uptown up up Central Park West. Once we 997 01:08:08,960 --> 01:08:12,440 Speaker 11: arrested them, Yeah, you have to understand something. We arrested 998 01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:17,320 Speaker 11: them before the jogger was even found. The jagger was 999 01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:22,479 Speaker 11: still in the ragime she was by herself in a 1000 01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:25,559 Speaker 11: ditch by a stream, basically dying. 1001 01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:28,880 Speaker 1: Oh did I mention that the lead detective in the case, 1002 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:33,400 Speaker 1: Eric Reynolds, is black? And what about those alled civil 1003 01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:36,880 Speaker 1: rights abuses a detective? As you know, you are accused 1004 01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:41,960 Speaker 1: of forcing the confection confessions. You're accused of not giving 1005 01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:44,640 Speaker 1: the boys the opportunity to be with their parents, not 1006 01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 1: giving them food and water, not allowing them to use 1007 01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:50,759 Speaker 1: a restroom. Linda Ferroisteine has been characterized as a racist, 1008 01:08:51,800 --> 01:08:53,960 Speaker 1: and I want to give you an opportunity to address 1009 01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:58,920 Speaker 1: some of these distortions. Were they really denied food, water, 1010 01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:04,240 Speaker 1: bath room facilities, access to their parents? The Lynda Feristeine 1011 01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:08,200 Speaker 1: was the lead prosecutor in the case, and she wrote 1012 01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,400 Speaker 1: an op ed piece about this mini series called When 1013 01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 1: They See Us, in which she said it was full 1014 01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:16,080 Speaker 1: of lies. She said the mini series portrays the suspects 1015 01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:18,759 Speaker 1: of being held without food, deprived of their parents' company, 1016 01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:21,919 Speaker 1: and advice, not even allowed to use a bathroom. Nonsense. 1017 01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:23,240 Speaker 1: If that were true, that would have been brought up 1018 01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:26,640 Speaker 1: at the hearing where they determined the confessions were voluntary. 1019 01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:30,200 Speaker 1: It says that the film suggests the only evidence that 1020 01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:32,840 Speaker 1: they have against the suspects is their forced confessions not true. 1021 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 1: One woman testified that one of them told her he 1022 01:09:36,439 --> 01:09:39,880 Speaker 1: held her down, probably thinking that holding her down meant 1023 01:09:39,880 --> 01:09:43,880 Speaker 1: that he was exonerated from crime. She was wrong. There 1024 01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:45,960 Speaker 1: were bloodstains and dirt on some of the other five. 1025 01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:48,840 Speaker 1: Lynda Feristeine said there were statements made by more than 1026 01:09:48,840 --> 01:09:51,000 Speaker 1: a dozen other kids who participated in the park ram 1027 01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:56,679 Speaker 1: page fingering the five and regarding the claim that Mattheus 1028 01:09:56,760 --> 01:10:00,880 Speaker 1: Reyes solely was there, she said, well, if he said 1029 01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:03,120 Speaker 1: he was solely there and the jury heard that, they 1030 01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:07,280 Speaker 1: probably wouldn't have convicted them regarding raping her or being 1031 01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:09,479 Speaker 1: involved in the rape of her. But they were also 1032 01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:12,479 Speaker 1: involved in attacking and assaulting other people, so the other 1033 01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 1: charges should not have been vacated. The second lead prosecutor 1034 01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:19,400 Speaker 1: Tim Clements believes that Mattias Rais is a complete liar 1035 01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:21,519 Speaker 1: and doesn't believe any of the charges. It should have 1036 01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:25,800 Speaker 1: been vacated. The lead officer on this case is my guest, 1037 01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:28,120 Speaker 1: retired New York Detective Eric Reynolds.

Ken Burns himself said that he made 1049 01:11:21,080 --> 01:11:24,280 Speaker 11: the documentary for one reason, and that was to force 1050 01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:27,719 Speaker 11: the city to pay the lawsuit to pay the Central 1051 01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:31,240 Speaker 11: Park five money. And that's it. That's why he would 1052 01:11:31,320 --> 01:11:34,200 Speaker 11: not show the city the outtakes from the from the 1053 01:11:35,240 --> 01:11:37,920 Speaker 11: from the filming that he did because he didn't want 1054 01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:41,120 Speaker 11: to see. He didn't want people to see the contradictions. 1055 01:11:41,240 --> 01:11:43,840 Speaker 11: He didn't want people to see the lives.

Larry Elder, 1105 01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:50,439 Speaker 1: Salem News Channel, you've been talking about the movie Hurricane 1106 01:14:50,520 --> 01:14:53,519 Speaker 1: and talking about the documentary and the movie about the 1107 01:14:53,600 --> 01:14:54,160 Speaker 1: Central Park. 1108 01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:54,439 Speaker 3: Five. 1109 01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:57,080 Speaker 1: Let me just say a few more things about that 1110 01:14:57,160 --> 01:15:02,720 Speaker 1: before we move on. Reuben Hurricane Carter was convicted of 1111 01:15:02,800 --> 01:15:06,240 Speaker 1: murdering three people. The evidence was overwhelming, jury found him guilty, 1112 01:15:09,160 --> 01:15:14,440 Speaker 1: appealed overturned. In the meantime, a bunch of Hollywood celebrities, 1113 01:15:14,960 --> 01:15:17,920 Speaker 1: people like Bob Dylan, were claiming that it was an 1114 01:15:18,040 --> 01:15:22,519 Speaker 1: innocent man wrongfully convicted. Bob Dylan even did a song 1115 01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:26,320 Speaker 1: called Hurricane, a very good song, by the way, so 1116 01:15:26,479 --> 01:15:29,599 Speaker 1: he had a second trial. Guess what found guilty again. 1117 01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:34,759 Speaker 1: In the movie, the character named Lesra Martin, who basically 1118 01:15:34,960 --> 01:15:38,960 Speaker 1: was responsible for putting pressure on the judicial system to 1119 01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:42,720 Speaker 1: free this guy, said in the movie when somebody said 1120 01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 1: he was convicted, he said, yes, by all white juries. 1121 01:15:47,640 --> 01:15:48,200 Speaker 7: It's not true. 1122 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:49,880 Speaker 1: The first jury was all right, but the second one 1123 01:15:49,920 --> 01:15:51,960 Speaker 1: had at least two blacks on it, So that was 1124 01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:57,920 Speaker 1: also a lie that was in the movie. Now, getting 1125 01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:01,720 Speaker 1: back on Central Park five, that they were found exonerated, 1126 01:16:01,760 --> 01:16:07,200 Speaker 1: I'm using air quotes is because a convicted rapist named 1127 01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:11,200 Speaker 1: Matteas Reis said that he was the sole person who 1128 01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:14,240 Speaker 1: raped the Center Park five jogger. By the way, I 1129 01:16:14,280 --> 01:16:17,400 Speaker 1: should tell you that Mattias Rayis was behind bars for, 1130 01:16:17,479 --> 01:16:21,400 Speaker 1: among other things, raping his own mother. How credible do 1131 01:16:21,479 --> 01:16:24,760 Speaker 1: you think somebody like that is? But he claimed that 1132 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:29,800 Speaker 1: he was the only one who did it. Now, the 1133 01:16:30,439 --> 01:16:34,519 Speaker 1: prosecution said that she was gang raped and that they 1134 01:16:34,600 --> 01:16:38,040 Speaker 1: did not capture all the people. So his DNA was 1135 01:16:38,120 --> 01:16:41,920 Speaker 1: in fact found, But doesn't mean that he's the only 1136 01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:44,200 Speaker 1: one who raped. He claims he was, But why should 1137 01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:44,760 Speaker 1: you believe him? 1138 01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:50,080 Speaker 10: Now? 1139 01:16:51,840 --> 01:16:55,080 Speaker 1: Aver DuVernay in her movie about the Center Park five, 1140 01:16:56,520 --> 01:17:01,400 Speaker 1: did not include what her doctor said. The Central Park 1141 01:17:01,439 --> 01:17:05,240 Speaker 1: Jagger's doctor said there were several different semen samples found 1142 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:09,120 Speaker 1: inside her, meaning that more than one person raped her, 1143 01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:13,080 Speaker 1: and Abra DuVernay did not include that in her film, 1144 01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:15,439 Speaker 1: And when she was asked why, she said she didn't 1145 01:17:15,479 --> 01:17:18,679 Speaker 1: believe the doctor. So you're saying that the Central Park 1146 01:17:18,760 --> 01:17:22,840 Speaker 1: doctors lied about how many semen samples were inside of her. 1147 01:17:22,880 --> 01:17:28,080 Speaker 1: What would be his motive for lying? It's ridiculous. And 1148 01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:32,240 Speaker 1: this whole thing has been pulled over the American people 1149 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:38,519 Speaker 1: so that people believe that Ruben Hurricane Carter was wrongfully convicted. 1150 01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:43,360 Speaker 1: I just now went on Wikipedia and it said Ruben 1151 01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:46,719 Speaker 1: Hurricane Carter was a man wrongfully convicted of triple homicide. 1152 01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:47,840 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah blah. 1153 01:17:48,240 --> 01:17:48,519 Speaker 10: Wrong. 1154 01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:52,200 Speaker 1: I didn't look at what Wikipedia says about the Central 1155 01:17:52,240 --> 01:17:53,720 Speaker 1: Park five, but I'm sure would say the same thing, 1156 01:17:54,280 --> 01:18:00,960 Speaker 1: also wrong. The doctor said that there were several different 1157 01:18:01,040 --> 01:18:05,960 Speaker 1: seamen samples found inside her and abra dubrene. The filmmaker said, 1158 01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:08,360 Speaker 1: I decided not to include that because I didn't believe 1159 01:18:08,400 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 1: the doctor. Are you serious? Okay, Now let's talk about 1160 01:18:14,040 --> 01:18:16,439 Speaker 1: what all this government intrusion has done to our country. 1161 01:18:16,520 --> 01:18:20,240 Speaker 1: This is Professor Walter Williams Number fifteen. 1162 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:26,760 Speaker 8: Emerics from all walks of life have demonstrated a deep 1163 01:18:26,960 --> 01:18:28,560 Speaker 8: and abiding content. 1164 01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:33,440 Speaker 3: For private property rights and individuals. 1165 01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:40,640 Speaker 8: And I believe that free enterprise is threatened today not 1166 01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:45,080 Speaker 8: because of its failure, but because of its success. Somewhat ironically. 1167 01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:52,560 Speaker 8: That is, capitalism has been so successful in eliminating the 1168 01:18:52,680 --> 01:18:56,639 Speaker 8: traditional problems of man, the historic problems of man, much 1169 01:18:56,720 --> 01:19:03,639 Speaker 8: as disease, pestilents, gross hunger, and poverty, that all other 1170 01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:07,000 Speaker 8: human problems appear to us to be at once inexcusable 1171 01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:13,120 Speaker 8: and unbearable. The desire by many Americans to eliminate these 1172 01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:18,519 Speaker 8: so called unbearable and inexcusable problems has led us away 1173 01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:22,599 Speaker 8: from the basic ideals and principles upon which our nation 1174 01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:27,479 Speaker 8: was built. In the name of other ideals such as 1175 01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:33,400 Speaker 8: equality of income, sex and race, balance, or to be markets, 1176 01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:38,080 Speaker 8: consumer protection, energy conservation, just name a few, we have 1177 01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:41,679 Speaker 8: abandoned many personal freedoms. 1178 01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:46,960 Speaker 3: The primary justification. 1179 01:19:48,040 --> 01:19:53,639 Speaker 8: For the attack on private property and economic freedom and privacy, 1180 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:54,479 Speaker 8: I might add. 1181 01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:59,880 Speaker 3: Can be found in people's desire for government to do good. 1182 01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:04,559 Speaker 8: That is, we all hear things like government should care 1183 01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:09,240 Speaker 8: for the poor, government should help the eliate, Government should 1184 01:20:09,240 --> 01:20:14,440 Speaker 8: help college students become educated, Government should help failing businesses. 1185 01:20:16,120 --> 01:20:19,679 Speaker 3: Well, it's all well and good to say that government 1186 01:20:19,680 --> 01:20:24,320 Speaker 3: should do this, but we must recognize that government has 1187 01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:25,800 Speaker 3: no resources of it's very own. 1188 01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:30,320 Speaker 8: And what I mean by that is that all these 1189 01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:36,360 Speaker 8: programs to help deserving college students or failing businesss. Uh, 1190 01:20:36,479 --> 01:20:41,200 Speaker 8: they don't represent congressmen and senators in Washington or legislators 1191 01:20:41,240 --> 01:20:44,479 Speaker 8: that you're state capital, reaching in their pockets and sending 1192 01:20:44,520 --> 01:20:45,200 Speaker 8: the money out. 1193 01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:48,160 Speaker 3: That's what I mean when I say government has no 1194 01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:49,519 Speaker 3: resources off it's very young. 1195 01:20:51,200 --> 01:20:55,920 Speaker 8: Moreover, there's no tooth ferry or Santa Claus giving them 1196 01:20:56,200 --> 01:21:03,360 Speaker 8: the resources. Now, so when you recognize that government has 1197 01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:07,720 Speaker 8: no resources of its very own, that forces you to 1198 01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:12,800 Speaker 8: recognize that the only way the government can give one 1199 01:21:12,840 --> 01:21:19,240 Speaker 8: American citizen one dollar is to first, through intimidation, threats 1200 01:21:19,400 --> 01:21:26,479 Speaker 8: and coercion, confiscate that one dollar from some other American citizen. Now, 1201 01:21:26,600 --> 01:21:28,400 Speaker 8: some of you might say, well, gee, yeah, well this 1202 01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:32,919 Speaker 8: terminology of Professor Williams is using intimidation, threats and coercion. 1203 01:21:33,040 --> 01:21:36,360 Speaker 3: It's just too loose. Well, you have April fifteenth to 1204 01:21:36,640 --> 01:21:40,080 Speaker 3: check me out. That is, you can tell. 1205 01:21:41,720 --> 01:21:46,320 Speaker 8: The agents of the Congress name the irs, that you 1206 01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:50,519 Speaker 8: don't want your earnings going to bail out failing bacause 1207 01:21:50,560 --> 01:21:54,560 Speaker 8: you refuse to give your earnings to farmers. 1208 01:21:54,880 --> 01:21:55,439 Speaker 3: Give it to them. 1209 01:21:55,520 --> 01:21:57,720 Speaker 8: That even give the farmers, you will see all the intimidation, 1210 01:21:57,880 --> 01:22:00,240 Speaker 8: threats and coersion that you want to see if you 1211 01:22:00,400 --> 01:22:01,400 Speaker 8: act too ugly. 1212 01:22:01,320 --> 01:22:04,559 Speaker 3: You will get shot. Now, a lot of people say, 1213 01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:06,880 Speaker 3: we'll wait, you wait to get shot. Well, that's like 1214 01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:07,640 Speaker 3: I mean. 1215 01:22:07,680 --> 01:22:10,200 Speaker 8: I tell the people in Washington, look, you're not going 1216 01:22:10,280 --> 01:22:12,240 Speaker 8: to I'm not gonna give you any money to give 1217 01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:12,799 Speaker 8: to the farmers. 1218 01:22:13,360 --> 01:22:15,200 Speaker 3: And they say, well, we're gonna take your house. I say, no, 1219 01:22:15,240 --> 01:22:17,400 Speaker 3: you're not gonna take my house because I bought that house. 1220 01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:19,960 Speaker 3: And then they come around and take my house. And 1221 01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:23,160 Speaker 3: I'm about to do window with guns and they'll shoot 1222 01:22:23,160 --> 01:22:30,040 Speaker 3: me a little be armed. Now, government government does those things, 1223 01:22:31,080 --> 01:22:31,800 Speaker 3: and many of us. 1224 01:22:31,760 --> 01:22:35,240 Speaker 8: Support the government doing those things, for which if a 1225 01:22:35,400 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 8: private person did them, he would be condemned as ordinary 1226 01:22:39,600 --> 01:22:40,320 Speaker 8: common thief. 1227 01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:48,120 Speaker 3: For example, I could see some homeless lady downtown. 1228 01:22:48,760 --> 01:22:54,439 Speaker 8: Charlottesville or in downtown Washington, and I have to walk 1229 01:22:54,560 --> 01:22:57,720 Speaker 8: up to Don Woodreau with a gun in my hand. 1230 01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:01,240 Speaker 8: I say give me a two hundred dollars. I take 1231 01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:04,120 Speaker 8: the two hundred dollars. And then having taken these two 1232 01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:07,280 Speaker 8: hundred dollars, I have to go downtown and buy that 1233 01:23:07,439 --> 01:23:11,160 Speaker 8: lady on the grate some housing, some medical care, some clothing. 1234 01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:14,400 Speaker 8: If you were members of a jury, would you find 1235 01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:17,920 Speaker 8: me guilty of a crime. I'm sure you you'd find 1236 01:23:17,960 --> 01:23:24,479 Speaker 8: me guilty of that. Regardless of the disposition of Don's money, 1237 01:23:25,280 --> 01:23:29,519 Speaker 8: I'd nonetheless be guilty of them. Now I ask you, 1238 01:23:30,920 --> 01:23:34,880 Speaker 8: is there any conceptual distinction between that act and where 1239 01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:36,800 Speaker 8: the government comes up to me and says Williams, you 1240 01:23:36,880 --> 01:23:39,560 Speaker 8: know that two hundred dollars you made last week that 1241 01:23:39,680 --> 01:23:42,840 Speaker 8: you planned to buy some Lafitte cross Child or dug 1242 01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:46,439 Speaker 8: Wine or some Chattau of the Chemus or turn. 1243 01:23:47,200 --> 01:23:48,439 Speaker 3: You will not do that with me. 1244 01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:51,200 Speaker 8: You'll give it to us, and we will help the 1245 01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:53,880 Speaker 8: lady on the great We will give the money to 1246 01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:55,719 Speaker 8: lead you on the greave and buy or some housing. 1247 01:23:57,439 --> 01:24:00,479 Speaker 8: I assert that there is no conceptual distinction between those acts, 1248 01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:01,600 Speaker 8: and if you press. 1249 01:24:01,400 --> 01:24:04,560 Speaker 3: Me, I would say that the only distinction. 1250 01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:08,280 Speaker 8: Is that the first act, where I walked up to 1251 01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:10,519 Speaker 8: Dunn and took his two undred dollars to help the 1252 01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:15,599 Speaker 8: lady downtown, that is illegal theft. And the second act, 1253 01:24:16,040 --> 01:24:18,920 Speaker 8: where the irs walked up to me and took my 1254 01:24:19,080 --> 01:24:23,280 Speaker 8: money or intimidated me, that would be legal theft, but 1255 01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:27,800 Speaker 8: nonetheless theft all the same.

That is one moral question. 1310 01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:37,720 Speaker 8: Now, in a free society, we want transactions or relationships 1311 01:27:37,760 --> 01:27:42,640 Speaker 8: between people to be voluntary, and we want to minimize 1312 01:27:43,160 --> 01:27:45,880 Speaker 8: involuntary or coercier. 1313 01:27:47,760 --> 01:27:48,200 Speaker 9: Behavior. 1314 01:27:49,439 --> 01:27:51,320 Speaker 3: A matter of fact, another interesting way I like to 1315 01:27:51,360 --> 01:27:53,360 Speaker 3: look at it because a lot of people get flung up. 1316 01:27:53,360 --> 01:27:57,400 Speaker 8: They don't fully appreciate the voluntary and involuntary exchange I like. 1317 01:27:57,400 --> 01:27:57,760 Speaker 3: To think of. 1318 01:27:57,840 --> 01:28:01,920 Speaker 8: I tell people I love seduction, but I'm against ray. 1319 01:28:02,439 --> 01:28:05,280 Speaker 8: I mean, what is seduction? What is the essence of sedoction? Well, 1320 01:28:05,360 --> 01:28:08,519 Speaker 8: seduction is where it's a kind of transaction where we 1321 01:28:08,600 --> 01:28:10,840 Speaker 8: proposition our fellow man in the following way. 1322 01:28:10,880 --> 01:28:13,719 Speaker 3: We say, if you make me feel good, I'll make. 1323 01:28:13,640 --> 01:28:16,920 Speaker 8: You feel good. That seduction. I love seduction because you 1324 01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:19,559 Speaker 8: both parties come out of feeling better in their own opinion. 1325 01:28:20,360 --> 01:28:22,280 Speaker 8: And that would be an example.

I was on Deo 1462 01:35:23,280 --> 01:35:26,120 Speaker 1: Hughley to have one line or two lines, so he 1463 01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:29,800 Speaker 1: had what was called a table read, you know, about 1464 01:35:29,800 --> 01:35:31,840 Speaker 1: a week before the show they do. They do it 1465 01:35:31,880 --> 01:35:33,960 Speaker 1: in front of a live audience. So we had a 1466 01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:36,479 Speaker 1: table read where you read the part and I read 1467 01:35:36,520 --> 01:35:39,120 Speaker 1: the part, and then in the breaks, I'm just cracking 1468 01:35:39,240 --> 01:35:42,400 Speaker 1: jokes and making everybody laugh.

Next time, they changed 1473 01:35:55,040 --> 01:35:57,280 Speaker 1: the entire episode and made the whole episode about me, 1474 01:35:58,840 --> 01:36:04,160 Speaker 1: And the premise was deal. Hugley was driving listening to radio, 1475 01:36:04,280 --> 01:36:06,080 Speaker 1: hearing this guy named Larry Elder who he thought was 1476 01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:08,760 Speaker 1: an uncle Tom and a sellout, and I said something 1477 01:36:08,800 --> 01:36:11,519 Speaker 1: that made him so angry he had an accident, so 1478 01:36:11,600 --> 01:36:14,439 Speaker 1: he had to go to traffic school. Well guess who 1479 01:36:14,600 --> 01:36:16,479 Speaker 1: ended up going to traffic school and sitting right next 1480 01:36:16,520 --> 01:36:20,080 Speaker 1: to him, Larry Elder. So the whole episode we just 1481 01:36:21,600 --> 01:36:25,200 Speaker 1: just attacked each other, bid each other, chased each other, 1482 01:36:27,120 --> 01:36:30,960 Speaker 1: and finally, at the end of the episode, I drove 1483 01:36:31,120 --> 01:36:36,040 Speaker 1: him home and I was a reckless, horrible driver. And 1484 01:36:39,439 --> 01:36:40,720 Speaker 1: at the end of the show he said, you know, 1485 01:36:40,840 --> 01:36:43,439 Speaker 1: Larry Elder's not a bad guy, but he's an awful driver. 1486 01:36:44,240 --> 01:36:48,439 Speaker 1: And I still get residuals from that show. Nina is 1487 01:36:48,479 --> 01:36:51,479 Speaker 1: a recovering actress, and I get more residuals from stuff 1488 01:36:51,479 --> 01:36:54,000 Speaker 1: I've done than she's ever done, even though I've never 1489 01:36:54,160 --> 01:36:57,799 Speaker 1: taken an acting class.

The first was Samy 1498 01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:30,320 Speaker 1: Davis Junior. And I asked L. Hughley to be one 1499 01:37:30,360 --> 01:37:33,479 Speaker 1: of the Friars and he submitted a video. He didn't 1500 01:37:33,520 --> 01:37:36,360 Speaker 1: come himself, but he submitted a video which is pretty funny. 1501 01:37:38,479 --> 01:37:40,439 Speaker 1: When I told you, I ran into a celebrity at 1502 01:37:40,600 --> 01:37:43,880 Speaker 1: LAX who said that the egg prices were had not 1503 01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:47,920 Speaker 1: gone down. That celebrity was DL Hughley. So since then 1504 01:37:48,240 --> 01:37:51,640 Speaker 1: we've resumed a lot of antagonism, although he's okay to me. 1505 01:37:53,120 --> 01:37:54,840 Speaker 1: So that's what happened. Took a whole week to tape 1506 01:37:55,200 --> 01:37:56,479 Speaker 1: the show. We did it before in front of a 1507 01:37:56,479 --> 01:38:02,040 Speaker 1: studio audience and I I should this on behalf of 1508 01:38:02,160 --> 01:38:05,559 Speaker 1: D L. Hughgley. I said a line that cracked everybody 1509 01:38:05,640 --> 01:38:09,040 Speaker 1: up during the table read, but during the live performance, 1510 01:38:09,120 --> 01:38:13,560 Speaker 1: nobody laughed. And I was just stunned and shocked that 1511 01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:15,759 Speaker 1: nobody laughed because the line was so funny in my opinion. 1512 01:38:16,360 --> 01:38:17,960 Speaker 1: And he came up to me during a break that Larry, 1513 01:38:17,960 --> 01:38:20,040 Speaker 1: don't worry about it. These are kids. They don't appreciate 1514 01:38:20,120 --> 01:38:22,720 Speaker 1: the humor. We're gonna dub in some laughter later on. 1515 01:38:22,880 --> 01:38:25,360 Speaker 1: It'll be fine, but don't worry about it. And I said, 1516 01:38:25,360 --> 01:38:27,120 Speaker 1: thank you so much. I appreciate that because it really 1517 01:38:27,160 --> 01:38:29,639 Speaker 1: bothered me that nobody laughed at that line. Anyway, it's 1518 01:38:29,680 --> 01:38:32,640 Speaker 1: a very funny episode, and thank you for asking about it. 1519 01:38:32,720 --> 01:38:36,880 Speaker 1: You're the only person in my whole career on radio 1520 01:38:36,880 --> 01:38:38,600 Speaker 1: who's ever asked me about either of those shows. You 1521 01:38:38,680 --> 01:38:41,519 Speaker 1: asked me about both of them. By the way, I 1522 01:38:41,600 --> 01:38:43,839 Speaker 1: was in a movie with Burt Reynolds called Big City Blues. 1523 01:38:44,479 --> 01:38:46,240 Speaker 1: I had a few lines, and somebody called me a 1524 01:38:46,240 --> 01:38:48,240 Speaker 1: few years ago and said, you know, were you in 1525 01:38:48,320 --> 01:38:50,880 Speaker 1: a movie with Burt Reynolds called Big City Blues. Nobody 1526 01:38:50,960 --> 01:38:52,759 Speaker 1: watched the movie because it was a horrible movie. Although 1527 01:38:52,840 --> 01:38:58,479 Speaker 1: my part was okay, don't go away love it ball 1528 01:38:58,640 --> 01:39:02,800 Speaker 1: room man, WHOA Yes he did. 1529 01:39:03,520 --> 01:39:06,080 Speaker 7: We just put. 1530 01:39:07,320 --> 01:39:10,800 Speaker 1: Triple eight nine seven one seven two four to three 1531 01:39:10,840 --> 01:39:13,400 Speaker 1: Triple eight nine seventy one s A g E. Larry Old, 1532 01:39:13,400 --> 01:39:17,720 Speaker 1: There's sale induced Channel one more PostScript to the D. O. 1533 01:39:17,840 --> 01:39:22,320 Speaker 1: Hugley show that I did. My agent told me that 1534 01:39:23,560 --> 01:39:29,599 Speaker 1: they were considering giving D. L. Hugley a foil, somebody 1535 01:39:29,680 --> 01:39:34,160 Speaker 1: for him to have conflict with, because the show needed it. 1536 01:39:35,160 --> 01:39:40,280 Speaker 1: And if you do well, who knows? So did the part? 1537 01:39:40,479 --> 01:39:44,080 Speaker 1: Did it well? D lle and I even paused for 1538 01:39:44,080 --> 01:39:46,160 Speaker 1: a little while and talked about politics while everybody stood 1539 01:39:46,160 --> 01:39:49,360 Speaker 1: around and watched this talk about politics. And I was 1540 01:39:49,479 --> 01:39:52,200 Speaker 1: told that they are strongly considering hiring you to be 1541 01:39:52,280 --> 01:39:54,000 Speaker 1: his next door neighbors so that you guys could go 1542 01:39:54,040 --> 01:39:56,439 Speaker 1: at it. You know, I'm a conservative, he's a liberal. 1543 01:39:57,160 --> 01:39:59,960 Speaker 1: And I think right after that they canceled the show. 1544 01:40:00,760 --> 01:40:04,559 Speaker 1: So he was on for about four years, which made 1545 01:40:04,960 --> 01:40:07,719 Speaker 1: him have enough for syndication. I'm sure he's still getting 1546 01:40:08,240 --> 01:40:12,519 Speaker 1: what's called mailbox money. But we never did continue the show, 1547 01:40:12,640 --> 01:40:14,720 Speaker 1: so I never got my chance to be his next 1548 01:40:14,760 --> 01:40:24,880 Speaker 1: door neighbor. Now, you remember when Vice President J. D. 1549 01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:28,120 Speaker 1: Vance said this number eleven. 1550 01:40:30,040 --> 01:40:33,600 Speaker 12: Unlike the left, we stand against treating anybody and I 1551 01:40:33,720 --> 01:40:37,200 Speaker 12: love what Nicky said about this. We don't treat anybody 1552 01:40:37,400 --> 01:40:40,760 Speaker 12: different because of their race or their sex. So we 1553 01:40:40,880 --> 01:40:44,640 Speaker 12: have relegated DEI to the dustbin of history, which is 1554 01:40:44,720 --> 01:40:58,719 Speaker 12: exactly where it belongs. In the United States of America. 1555 01:40:58,920 --> 01:41:08,320 Speaker 12: You don't have to appolyize for being white anymore. And 1556 01:41:08,439 --> 01:41:10,519 Speaker 12: if you're an Asian, you don't have to talk around 1557 01:41:10,640 --> 01:41:13,560 Speaker 12: your skin color when you're applying for college, because we 1558 01:41:13,760 --> 01:41:18,000 Speaker 12: judge people based on who they are, not on ethnicity 1559 01:41:18,120 --> 01:41:27,000 Speaker 12: and things they can't control. We don't persecute you for 1560 01:41:27,120 --> 01:41:30,519 Speaker 12: being male, for being straight, for being gay, for being anything. 1561 01:41:30,640 --> 01:41:32,800 Speaker 12: The only thing that we demand is that you be 1562 01:41:33,080 --> 01:41:36,719 Speaker 12: a great American patriot. And if you're that, you're very much. 1563 01:41:36,640 --> 01:41:37,200 Speaker 3: On our team. 1564 01:41:40,200 --> 01:41:42,599 Speaker 1: Now you wouldn't think that would be controversial, But here 1565 01:41:42,720 --> 01:41:47,200 Speaker 1: is what Governor Tim Tampon Waltz said in response to 1566 01:41:47,320 --> 01:41:50,200 Speaker 1: what jd Vance said Number twelve. 1567 01:41:50,800 --> 01:41:54,639 Speaker 5: So, this is what happens when your own federal government 1568 01:41:54,720 --> 01:41:57,360 Speaker 5: wages war against you. This is what happens when they 1569 01:41:57,439 --> 01:42:00,800 Speaker 5: target communities for their own benefit, what happens when they 1570 01:42:00,880 --> 01:42:03,439 Speaker 5: scapegoat and this is what say happens when they no 1571 01:42:03,560 --> 01:42:06,240 Speaker 5: longer hide the idea of white supremacy. When you hear 1572 01:42:06,280 --> 01:42:08,599 Speaker 5: the Vice President of the United States talk about now 1573 01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:11,519 Speaker 5: white people won't have to apologize for being white. That's 1574 01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:14,200 Speaker 5: never happened once in my whole damn life. And I 1575 01:42:14,280 --> 01:42:16,880 Speaker 5: think everybody in this room knows what they're doing. So 1576 01:42:17,040 --> 01:42:19,840 Speaker 5: we're here today to say enough of this. We're here 1577 01:42:19,880 --> 01:42:22,280 Speaker 5: today to stand that Minnesota will protect their neighbors. 1578 01:42:23,040 --> 01:42:26,479 Speaker 1: That's never happened once in my whole damn life. They 1579 01:42:26,520 --> 01:42:30,720 Speaker 1: are newly released writings of the transgender who identified as 1580 01:42:30,720 --> 01:42:34,559 Speaker 1: a woman who murdered six people at the Christian school 1581 01:42:34,600 --> 01:42:42,960 Speaker 1: in Nashville. These are newly released writings two hundred and 1582 01:42:42,960 --> 01:42:49,719 Speaker 1: thirty pages of the shooter's notes and plans. Among the pages, 1583 01:42:49,760 --> 01:42:54,040 Speaker 1: it says that she was called her She listed the 1584 01:42:54,160 --> 01:42:59,599 Speaker 1: advantages her word. The school was quote predominantly white school, 1585 01:43:00,360 --> 01:43:09,800 Speaker 1: white people. I hate. So I guess nobody's apologized for 1586 01:43:09,920 --> 01:43:13,479 Speaker 1: being white, he said he in his opinion, although there 1587 01:43:13,520 --> 01:43:16,519 Speaker 1: is somebody who did apologize for being white. Tim Walls 1588 01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:17,439 Speaker 1: Number thirteen. 1589 01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:20,280 Speaker 13: We pat ourselves on the back sometimes that we acknowledge 1590 01:43:20,320 --> 01:43:23,439 Speaker 13: we have the worst racial disparities. I understand that the 1591 01:43:23,560 --> 01:43:25,960 Speaker 13: privilege I've been given as a white man, and the 1592 01:43:26,040 --> 01:43:29,360 Speaker 13: privilege of setting in the office of governor, that privilege 1593 01:43:29,479 --> 01:43:32,040 Speaker 13: had better be used to not just talk about the problem, 1594 01:43:32,120 --> 01:43:33,160 Speaker 13: but to solve the problem. 1595 01:43:35,520 --> 01:43:42,479 Speaker 1: So nobody apologized for being white except the Covenant School 1596 01:43:42,560 --> 01:43:47,840 Speaker 1: shooter in Nashville and the governor of Minnesota. What's this 1597 01:43:48,960 --> 01:43:52,799 Speaker 1: ABC's Good Morning America. It's actually talking about the cheapest 1598 01:43:53,360 --> 01:43:57,000 Speaker 1: prices for gas in five years. Say it ain't so? 1599 01:43:57,240 --> 01:44:00,599 Speaker 14: Number twenty three, Well, welcome new for the more than 1600 01:44:00,640 --> 01:44:03,799 Speaker 14: one hundred million Americans hitting the roads during the holidays. 1601 01:44:04,160 --> 01:44:06,120 Speaker 14: Gas Buddy says the national average price for a gallon 1602 01:44:06,160 --> 01:44:08,280 Speaker 14: of gas down for the fifth straight week, so it's 1603 01:44:08,320 --> 01:44:11,360 Speaker 14: now two dollars and seventy five cents. That's down twenty 1604 01:44:11,439 --> 01:44:14,960 Speaker 14: three cents in one month. In forty states, average gas 1605 01:44:15,040 --> 01:44:17,600 Speaker 14: prices are now below that three dollars mark. Now we 1606 01:44:17,680 --> 01:44:20,439 Speaker 14: do tennessee for prices this time of year. That's because 1607 01:44:20,520 --> 01:44:23,439 Speaker 14: generally demand does go down. People are parked during the holidays, 1608 01:44:23,479 --> 01:44:26,960 Speaker 14: school is out. Oil production is also up, which does 1609 01:44:27,080 --> 01:44:29,960 Speaker 14: help keep prices low. Gas Buddy says we could start 1610 01:44:30,000 --> 01:44:32,320 Speaker 14: to see prices tick up in about six weeks. But 1611 01:44:32,439 --> 01:44:35,600 Speaker 14: bottom line for now cheapest December for gas prices in 1612 01:44:35,760 --> 01:44:36,320 Speaker 14: five years. 1613 01:44:37,439 --> 01:44:41,240 Speaker 1: Now, California is considering a wealth tax. Listen to this 1614 01:44:41,400 --> 01:44:44,919 Speaker 1: liberal reporter describe the job of government number. 1615 01:44:44,720 --> 01:44:48,640 Speaker 10: Two, The government's job to buy for you. 1616 01:44:48,840 --> 01:44:51,759 Speaker 11: No, it's not the government's job to buy people homes. 1617 01:44:51,880 --> 01:44:53,559 Speaker 7: Why does need their money? Okay? 1618 01:44:53,800 --> 01:44:56,920 Speaker 14: Because do you agree that the government's job is to 1619 01:44:57,000 --> 01:44:57,920 Speaker 14: redistribute wealth? 1620 01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:01,080 Speaker 1: And they okay, hear that that. Do you agree it's 1621 01:45:01,080 --> 01:45:05,479 Speaker 1: the government's job to redistribute wealth? Are you serious? Are 1622 01:45:05,520 --> 01:45:11,760 Speaker 1: you nuts?
