Speaker 1 (00:00):
The communists already lost so.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Well.

Speaker 3 (00:05):
I like the sounds of it. Let's find out if
that's the reality of it. The United States of America
has been far too welcoming for far too long. If
you were born in Kenya and raised in Canada and
you go on television and trash the United States of America,
I should be waiting for you what you are to
send you to another country. You should never step quote
on American soil again. The average Democrat ken talks about

(00:28):
political violence a lot when they're amongst themselves. And I
know this because I've lived around them, and this is
how they talk, especially when it comes to Donald Trump.
I hope someone kills him. I hope he dies. I
wish he'd just die. In every Democrat, there's no condemnation.
There's a long yeah, yeah, that would be nice. It's
too bad he missed. This has become how Democrats talk.

Speaker 4 (00:51):
A lot of people just nuts, man, A lot of
people are just goofy.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Crazy ESPLC has a clear incentive to exactly, Hey, there
are white clan hoods in existence today because of the
SPLC funding that would not exist without that funding.

Speaker 5 (01:10):
If you want to know when a winner is going
to be declared. Just sit back and wait and stop asking.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
Okay, so let's have a chat because it is I'm shoot,
it's what are we one month? I think we're one
month exactly away from our birthday two one hundred and
fifty years old. It is a wonderful thing, isn't it.
And look, we've got problems, and every country gets problems.
Every country has problems. But countries can develop a fatal

(01:43):
problem if they're not careful. And we have one right now,
and it's one that needs to be fixed. And that
fatal problem is one of the two political parties in
the United States of America hates the country. It's the
Democrats hate the country. We just had a pool came out.
One in five Democrats feel proud to be in America.

(02:07):
One in five feel proud to be in America. Listen,
you can survive a country with political parties that have
bad ideas, wrong ideas, or bad tax plan that you
can survive long term. A lot of these things what

(02:29):
you cannot properly survive. You just can't survive long term
when people inside of your country hate it and want
to burn it down. It does not work. Patriotism as
we've talked about so many times before. Is the essential
element for a country. You can you can survive lack

(02:49):
of resources, a low birth rate, the tax policy. You
can get through all these things if your society is
full of people who love it. But if your society
is full of people who hate it, there's no long
term way to navigate out of that. I've used this
example a long time ago. I'll bring it up again.

(03:11):
If there is a village, a remote village in Africa,
and one hundred people live in that village, well, if
ninety of the hundred people in that village love the village,
they feel blessed to be there, want to be part
of that tribe, then what's going to happen is, every
single day, little decisions will be made by the people

(03:32):
in the village that protect and preserve the village. Oh,
this guy's this fence is down a little bit, some cattle.
We're going to get out all run over there and
fix it. That kind of a thing, and vice versa.
If fifty people in the village love it, but then
fifty people in the village want to burn it down,

(03:52):
the fence is left unrepaired in the cattle get out
it's just not a situation we can get through. And this,
this is ali Velshi, this has become mainstream Democrat thought.

Speaker 6 (04:07):
Anniversaries are imperfect records of the thing which is being celebrated.
In America's case, anniversaries often gloss over the racial dynamics
underlying much of America's history and politics, issues that remain
unsolved because America has never actually fully reckoned with its
racist past and its original founding sin of slavery. In

(04:29):
one month, America will mark the two hundred and fiftieth
anniversary of its founding. Like previous anniversaries, there is a deep.

Speaker 3 (04:35):
Unease about this. I feel a.

Speaker 6 (04:37):
Deep unease about these celebrations to which I am invited
to mark the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of our
so called democracy.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
Deep unease. Look, scream and yell at the television all
you want. That's how your liberal ant Peggy feels. The
Democrat across the street with the Joe Biden bumper sticker
on his car, that's how he feels, feels exactly like that.
Every pole shows it, every single pole shows it. This
is how democrats feel about the United States of America.
They hate it. Now By the way, if that Dufus

(05:10):
looks familiar, this is him.

Speaker 5 (05:14):
I want to be clear and how I characterize this.

Speaker 6 (05:16):
This is mostly a protest. It is not It is
not generally speaking unruly, but fires have been started and
there's a.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
Crowd that not unruly. Why did he see it that way?
You remember that clip. We all made fun of him
for that clip. Why did he see that as being okay?
He wants to burn it down. He looked at those
people burning things down and thought to himself, nice, don't
get that evil country. Maybe the most egregious part of

(05:48):
this whole thing is that guy was born in Kenya.
He was raised in Canada. The United States of America
has been far too welcoming for far too long. If
you were born in Kenya and raised in Canada and
you go on television and trash the United States of America,
I should be waiting for you what your car to
send you to another country. You should never step foot
on American soil again. And by the way, speaking of immigration,

(06:12):
this is why we have so much naked anti Americanism
flowing through the Democrat Party. Let me introduce you to one.
You probably know where these people are. Just idiots.

Speaker 7 (06:24):
I really you know, I'm at the point where it's
become really hard to have an intellectual debate with any
of these people because the level of stupidity that they
are displaying every single day is frankly embarrassing, not just
in Congress but as Americans. And the fact that these
people are allowed to say just the most ridiculous things

(06:47):
tells you that the dumbing of the United States has arrived,
because how else do we get Trump presidency again? And
so the idea that this is a white nation that
needs to preserved is a fascinatingly disgusting view because this

(07:08):
country is one for the many.

Speaker 8 (07:11):
I would say our country should be more fearful of
white man across our country because they are actually causing
most of the deaths within this country.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
That savage never walks into Congress if we don't let
her dirt Paul family come over here. It's the bottom line.
She never steps into Congress without these foreigners. But we
have so much domesticate for America too. It's become the
mainstream thing, the cool thing. Remember this dufous Macklemore not

(07:49):
gonna stop you. Yeah, America, America, we got it. That's
what our entertainers. Do do you understand that when I
was a kid. When I was a kid, we had

(08:09):
all kinds of actors and singers who would openly talk
about their love of country. That's not ancient history. I'm
forty four years old. When I was a kid, that
was fairly standard. Yeah, there were some lefties, of course,
but there were all kinds of guys who talked about
the love of America. Now you get Mark Ruffalo.

Speaker 9 (08:26):
What do we do to make life better for everybody?
We certainly have enough. I mean, we just created the
most number of billionaires in the history of the world.
You know, we have enough. We could do this, but
it's going to take some imagination, reimagining of what America is,
what our economic system is, because what's clear is it's

(08:50):
not working and it's not sustainable.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
Remember always remember when the communist says, reimagine means is destroyed.
Whatever he's trying to quote reimagine he's trying to destroy.
He knows the word destroy doesn't sell well, so he
workshopped it and worked on it and came up with reimagine.
It sounds so flowery and nice. Right, We're not burning

(09:17):
down your country. We're reimagining it and these people, they've
gotten such a foothold in so many places. This person
is a police officer in Nashville.

Speaker 10 (09:31):
I love being a part of it. I love being
able to go out with my wife throughout the entire
city and being able to say, hey, I put that
sticker on that business. As of this morning, we have
one hundred and twenty nine different businesses. So a safe
Place is basically a business will get in contact with me.
I'll come out to the location and go over the program.
It's basically a safe place essentially for any victim of

(09:51):
any hate crime whatsoever to come into the business, inform
the business owners or the employees what happened to them,
and then that business is or possible for keeping the
victim in a safe public spot and then calling nine
one one on the behalf fun fact is that lipstick
and chopstick are both part of Safe Place, but they're
also one of the first ones. When I came on
to be the LGBTQ Liaison signed up to be a

(10:14):
part of the Safe Place program. I think more now
than ever, somebody needs to know that they're loved, whether
it's within their blood family or within their chosen family.
There's people out there for you and to not be
scared to live your full authentic self.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
These people are religious, they're religious nutballs, their conquerors and
their destroyers. And this has become mainstream thought in the
United States of America. Good place to be. All right, Look,
we have Ken the Court on the show. We have
Tyler own Neil on the show. We have John Phillips
on the show. We have so much we have to
get to tonight. Before we get to that. Do you

(10:55):
have a mortgage? Do you have high interest debt? American financing.
American financing can give you a path out. I don't
mean make things better. American financing can give you a
path that gets you out. Now. They can't do this

(11:16):
unless you give them a call. And I am fully
aware at how much debt just plagues you. It weighs
you down, and when you have this high interest debt,
you feel like you're never getting out of it. I
know exactly how you feel. I do. I'm telling you
right now, American financing helps people just like you. Don't

(11:38):
think you're some special case or anything like that. Go
to Americanfinancing dot net, slash Jesse or call eight six
six eight nine one two eight two one we'll be back. Well,

(12:00):
you've heard me lament multiple times that the United States
of America has obviously moved into being a culture of assassination.
Assassinations have happened, multiple assassination attempts have happened recently. Clearly,
assassinations themselves are going to continue happening because at least

(12:21):
a portion of this society has just accepted that that's
how you do politics. Now, that's very terrible. It's sad
to watch the country I love descend into that. It
is not, however, totally unique in history, not at all.
Joining me now, Ken the Court, you know his YouTube
Elephants in the Room. It is outstanding. Hey, Ken, there's

(12:42):
a bit of history behind this stuff, isn't there?

Speaker 4 (12:45):
There is? There is assassinations. You know, when I was
a kid in the late sixties, we went through a
pretty bad spate of political assassinations. But they've been targeted
in the United States through history and worldwide, you know,
killing the people for whatever reasons, from power, to ideology

(13:05):
to to sometimes craziness. That's that's an ongoing thing, and
it works in some places the world better than it
works in other places.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
Okay, expand on that, why what what kind of society?
Where does it work? Where doesn't it work? Why?

Speaker 4 (13:20):
Well, where it works is is usually in in in
more of a dictatorship or or or a heavy top
down society. Uh. Sometimes it's it's done by the government themselves,
all right. So if you look at North Korea, you
look at Putin, you look at a lot of military dictatorships.
That's the way that they have elections. They zap out there,

(13:41):
they zap out their opponents, they poison them, they shoot them,
they go flying out of windows, and that's the way
that they consolidate their political power. And unless that opposition
grows so extreme that they that they end up shooting
the guys back or having them swing from a tree.
That can be very successful tactics in those types of
societies or even even time look onwar Sadak got shot

(14:03):
in Egypt. It was a very you know, dictator type
democracy and uh, dictator type government. And and when he
was out, the guys who killed them, they they they
got what they wanted. There was a change in public
policy in in democracies, we kind of don't see that.
It's it's a rare event for the shooter to actually

(14:25):
accomplish what what he wants to accomplishides.

Speaker 3 (14:29):
Okay, besides the shooting. Okay, So why is that? Why
does a freer country like ours, why can they withstand
such things? Is it just generally more of a power dispersion.

Speaker 4 (14:43):
That that's a that's that's that's the first and and
and and obvious and right answer. It's it's that democracies
aren't centered around one person or or a handful of people,
and they can absorb the death of a leader. Uh
and and and in a democracy where where you also
have in usual and you know, you certainly see now

(15:06):
and it's creepy when you see people supporting political violence
against against their opponents, you still have the vast majority
of people having a backlash against it. So look, we
can see this throughout all of American history. I mean
John Wilkes Booth, he killed Lincoln to help the South.
That made reconstruction against the South harder. When Johnson came in,
it didn't help the South, it hurt them. You look

(15:27):
at Martin Luther King. You know, right after his death
they passed some legislation on housing. Wasn't too much longer
before Johnson passed past the Civil Rights Act of nineteen
sixty eight. It had the opposite effect of slowing down
civil rights. Reagan he got more popular, Trump he got
more popular. I mean, I mean, you know, when he

(15:48):
took he was he wasn't assassinated, but it was about
as close as you get. And it even though that
was such a how do I say, such a stratisfied
race that it didn't really move the numbers a whole lot.
It absolutely did. Elon Musk endorsed was on the fence
and endorsed Trump the week of his attempted assassination. And

(16:08):
I think we saw the exact same thing with with
Charlie Kirk. It didn't make his cause go away. It
brought thousands and thousands of contributions of people supporting them,
of school chapters. It's it's a fortunate feature of democracy that, yes,
we can point to the to the to the absolute
awful people who are like, yeay, yay, look you just

(16:30):
killed that guy and he's rich or he's a Republican.
But the vast majority of people don't believe that.

Speaker 3 (16:36):
Okay, let's talk about the assassins themselves. Obviously, that all
of history is probably too broad of a subject. But
you look at our recent assassins and attempted assassins, you know,
the Charlie Kirk, Donald Trump. There are definitely some common threads.
It looks like, who are these people I see?

Speaker 4 (16:54):
I see essentially four groups of people. I mean, one
are the political extremists. The one in assuming you don't
believe Candace Owens is nonsense. The guy who shot Charlie
Kirk he did it for for what we can tell
right now, a political He hated his his politics. We
see that with uh, with JFK's assassination, with with rfk's assassination,

(17:17):
that they had a political agenda. Another big chunk of
it are are there are the the the Hinkleys of
the world who shot it and who tried to kill
Ronald Reagan. They just want to be somebody. They want
to be somebody important. Uh. You look at the guy
who assassinated John Lennon. He liked John Lennon, he didn't

(17:37):
dislike him. He wanted to be attached, and he wanted
to be somebody important and remembered by by by by
by history, and and weirdly that works for them. They
do get remembered by history in a bad way. Another
one is just and this is just one that you
see more often, and it was with Garfield that was
with uh uh is just people have a personal grudge

(17:59):
you you didn't vote my way, you didn't give me
a job. We can look at at the assassination in
San Francisco of of Maror Moscone and Harvey Milk. It
was done by by a guy who wanted his job back,
and he was mad at them for for for various thing.
It wasn't because of larger politics, even though it tried
to get spun that way with with Harvey Milk, that
just that just wasn't his his his motivation there and

(18:22):
then and then the fourth group. A lot of people
are just nuts, man. A lot of people are just
goofy crazy. You look at the guy who who broke
into Paul Pelosi's house and and smacked him in the
head with a hammer. You know, both sides are like,
you know, they could find enough in his nutty behavior
to say, uh, uh, he's a Republican. Look he he uh.
He was against uh he was against the COVID vaccine.

(18:44):
He did this, he did that, and then Republicans would
go no, no, no, no, he was a hippie who
used to be part of the Nude First movement. He
lives in Berkeley. And when you looked at it, the
guy believed in body doubles and talked to fairies. He
was he was crazy, And I think there's a little bit.
You know, sometimes these these these categories overlap a bit.
But those are the four general categories that I found
when I dug into this.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
Well, I'm assuming you did talk to some fairies, but
that's another story. Let's talk about the Democrats. Oh yeah,
you know when I went to community college. Can I
screw those things up? Let's talk about the Democrat Party,
because it's concern of mine a great deal, the radicalization
of the standard Democrat, not just the iohan Omars in Congress.

(19:29):
She's a great punching bag. The average Democrat Ken talks
about political violence a lot when they're amongst themselves. And
I know this because I've lived around them, and this
is how they talk, especially when it comes to Donald Trump.
I hope someone kills him. I hope he dies. I
wish she'd just die. In every Democrat, there's no condemnation.

(19:49):
There's a long yeah, yeah, it would be nice. It's
too bad he missed. This has become how democrats talk.

Speaker 4 (19:57):
What you know, I think, I think A you're you're
largely right. I think b Twitter isn't real life and
online isn't real life. And we have to kind of
sometimes be careful that that that when we see, when
we see those anecdotes of the crazy, awful people that
we don't necessarily assume, like I love I live in

(20:19):
San Francisco. Most of the people here didn't ever express
that to me. Some of them were probably biting their
tongue in there, so uh yeah, I mean when they
have such a frustration when you buy the and this
is where where political narratives, even though you know, I'm
a thousand percent off for the First Amendment, but when
you start to indoctrinate people that that guy is Hitler,

(20:43):
those people aren't just conservatives, they're they're fascists. Those people
over there, they're probably not just liberals, they're probably treasonous,
treasonous communists. When you get that in and you have
a frustration like like this, if if you really believe
that that that Trump is Hitler, then it doesn't take

(21:03):
a whole lot of logic to say he has to
be killed because you know, we know that he's going
to throw trans people in jail next and and and
and and in in in camps, and he's in and
so that's the danger of the crap that so many
of the mainstream politicians say, and and and the extremist press.
And it's a you know, even though every person who

(21:23):
pulls his a trigger, he's the person responsible for that,
But there was a wind at their back, and the
wind at their back is the crazy people on on on,
on Twitter, and on TV and and in there that
that that are abiding by that concept. It's horrible. It
leads to bloodshed. There's absolutely no way around that.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
Okay, So how do we get the Democrat rhetoric to stop,
because it doesn't appear that there's any stop. It didn't
stop after Steve's galise, it didn't stop after Charlie Kirk.
It didn't stop. And Donald Trump was shot in the head.
It didn't stop after this, It didn't stop after that.
Every time there's one of these things, everyone says, you
got to stop the Nazi stuff, you gotta stop at
the Nazi stuff. But they don't stop, They don't even

(22:03):
slow down. So what stops it?

Speaker 4 (22:06):
So, well, you know, it would stop it if Republicans
lost and Democrats got in, and and the Republicans hated
the Democratic president as much as as they hate Donald Trump.
Guess what our buddies would be be being these people
at the same time. I mean, I don't think it's
an inherent issue among among that people who vote on
the left have a more predilection to violence, but they're

(22:28):
the only ones frustrated as hell right now, and and
and and you know, as long as as all of
that rhetoric, and I don't like to get to the well,
it's both sides, but everybody has to calm down a
little bit. I mean, look, you're right, it is much
more on on the left. But when that when Paul
Pelosi got smacked in the head, Donald Trump was was
telling jokes that it might have been by one of
his gay lovers, which was a bunch of garbage. His

(22:50):
son Don Junior, he posted a Halloween outfit of the
underwear that pol you know, because Pelosi was in his
underwear when when they came to the door and a
hammer on top of it. So it's like, you know,
I'm not saying that those are those are equivalent in
numbers but I think everybody should stop stop like cluck
clucking when somebody somebody gets hurt. I mean, that's the
first thing. The second thing is just all the rhetoric

(23:13):
needs to tone down in the sense that and and
to be honest, I saw I saw Marco Rubio do
a great job of that, of not accepting. He was
on a on a Capitol hill recently and they were
accusing him of you know, they would just randomly make
stuff up, and he would just stop and not allow
them to finish that. It's like, you can't call this
person or me a racist or this or that, because

(23:35):
that leads to those consequences. I'm not quite sure you
know what else we have besides you know, making sure
that we that we make a that that that we
use the government resources to make sure that these people
get either either electrocuted, which we don't do anymore, or
at least thrown in prison. So so that there is

(23:56):
because when you allow people to get away with with
the minor things, when you allow a whole a whole
summer of burning down buildings because because because a black
guy got killed by a cop, and and and everybody's
cool with that, and the National Guard wasn't sent in
by by by Trump one and Democrats were contributing to
their their their their legal defense funds. That sends a

(24:18):
signal that violence is okay, and that kind of violence
is is is just a predecessor towards towards you know,
out and out political assassination.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
Ken, thank you, brother, come back. I appreciate it.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
Thanks for having me.

Speaker 3 (24:34):
All right, we still need to put our money where
our morals are. Corporate America may have turned down the
communism a little bit, but I look around, it's June.
I know you've seen it. They're still doing it. Is
your mobile provider doing it? I bet they are? Now mine, isn't.

(24:56):
I have Pure Talk. Mine's on the same five G network,
so I have the same service you do. Granted I
pay way less. My company's led by a Vietnam veteran,
and they're so patriotic they hire Americans. Does that sound
like someplace that you get your money. Go to puretalk
dot com, slash jessetv and stop paying these people to

(25:18):
trash your culture. We'll be back. Well we have a
new attorney general. Slow down on that. We might have
a new attorney general. Todd Blanche has been the acting
Attorney general. We've seen more arrests, seems like in his

(25:41):
short tenure that we did under Pam Bondy. Donald Trump
is very clearly impressed, comes out and says, hey, I
want him to be the guy. The reason he's not
quite the guy yet is he still has to get
confirmed by an increasingly hostile Senate. But I guess that's
just how life goes. Joining me now to talk about
that and other things that great Tyler owned the author
of many wonderful books, but making hate pay about the

(26:04):
Southern Poverty Law Center is quite a page turner. Tyler. Okay,
Todd Blanche, what did Trump see that he liked?

Speaker 1 (26:12):
Yeah, I think he sees an aggressive guy who's going
to go after, you know, abuses of the law. So
what we saw, you know, particularly now we have a
new superseding indictment against the Southern Poverty Law Center that
exposes in great detail exactly what the SPLC had been
funding and why they face charges of wirefraud, bank fraud,

(26:37):
and conspiracy to conceal money laundering. But in general, you know,
Todd Blanche has been on the cutting edge of a
lot of different developing, different developments, particularly the Anti Weaponization
Fund that President Trump was very interested in. Now, of
course that fund has been put on ice. I think
there were a lot of concerns about the Anti Weaponization

(27:00):
Fund how it came about. The idea though, that we
should be making whole some of the people who were
abused under the previous administration when it weaponized justice against
particularly Conservatives, Catholics and supporters of President Trump. The idea
that we should be bringing some justice about after that

(27:22):
resonates with a lot of people. But I think the
way in which they wanted to set up that fund
raised some questions. So ultimately, Todd Blanche has been aggressive.
He's been on the ball in a lot of situations,
particularly against the Southern Poverty Law Center, and President Trump
sees that and sees in Blanche an attorney general who

(27:44):
will not delay in his prosecuting of injustice.

Speaker 3 (27:51):
Okay, Tyler, I wanted to before we move on this
weaponization fund. You know, I'm old enough to remember the
Senate making sure they were able to, of course get
some financial compensation for when their rights were violated. What
specifically are the problems they have was, you know, the
little guys getting the same.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
Well, I think The main problem isn't with the little
guys getting the same and it's more with the way
in which this fund was created. So you look at
President Trump has a legitimate beef with the IRS releasing
his confidential tax information, but he sues the Irs while
he is president and then achieves a settlement shortly thereafter that.

(28:35):
You know, I've been following things on the left where
they engage in sue and settle with environmentalist activism, and
this this stinks. It seems like that sort of thing
happening under President Trump's watch. So I think the way
in which we go about making sure that the little

(28:56):
guy is made whole does matter. And if we look
at this particular settlement, there are a lot of questions
about it, but the idea of helping the little guy
and making sure, I mean, we saw under the Biden
administration Mark Hawk, who was a father who got arrested

(29:16):
in front of his children in a pre dawn FBI
raid for the supposedly horrific crime of blocking an abortion facility.
He wasn't actually blocking it, he was defending his son
who had been attacked in front of it at a
pro life protest. Ultimately, he got acquitted by the jury

(29:38):
after the Biden DOJ press charges, but he also ended
up getting a settlement from the government because he went
through the normal channels of this. So I think, you know,
there are very serious concerns about making sure that those
who got attacked by the Biden administration's weaponization of justice
that they can get there, that they can be made

(30:00):
in a lot of cases that can already happen, and
there were concerns about the process here. But I do
know that there are members of the Senate who are
trying to resurrect the idea of this fund that is
not connecting to this particular settlement.

Speaker 3 (30:18):
All right, Tyler, let's move on to a subject that
you know just a little bit about, the Southern Poverty
Law Center. Todd Blanche as part of his job, is
going to have to take this organization down. If they've
been doing illegal things, which it certainly appears like they've
been doing. Where are we at? What did they do?
Where is all this?

Speaker 1 (30:36):
Yes, So we got a superseding indictment from a grand
jury on Tuesday night. And what happened here was, you know,
the SPLC was already indicted for these charges of wirefraud,
bank fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering or to
conceal money laundering. But what was new here in this

(30:57):
indictment is more details about exactly what the SPLC did
and so the original the original indictment mentioned that they
had a field source who was part of the organizers
of the Charlottesville Unite the Right rally, but this document
expanded on that and showed exactly what this person was doing,

(31:18):
what the SPLC was paying this person to do. There
were a few cases that really stood out to me
reading this superseding indictment. In one case, the SPLC an
SPLC staffer was in a romantic relationship with a member
of a neo Nazi organization, so she was from what
we understand, this employee was literally sleeping with the hate

(31:40):
groups that the SPLC claims it exists to dismantle. So
you know, that was a revelation of itself. But there
were also three examples of people who were members of
a ku Klux Klan organization and went to the SPLC
seeking a way to leave the clan, and the sp
PLC instead gave them a boatload of money and said no,

(32:03):
we want you to stay. And in one of these cases,
one of these people became a leader of a clan organization.
They also, I mean, you can't make this stuff.

Speaker 3 (32:13):
Up, okay, Tiland. So all right, now, while that's obviously
wrong and crazy, and you do have to admire the
undercover work part in the pun, how is it illegal?
What is it about it that makes it illegal? I mean, surely, me,
as a private citizen, if I would like to pay

(32:34):
someone to become a member of the KKK, which I
don't think I'll be doing anytime soon, but surely I'm
allowed to do that, right, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:42):
So the main thing here is that the SPLC sells
its purpose to its donors as fighting the KKK and
Neo Nazis in these organizations. So it sends out this
material saying, please give us money, we're trying to dismantle
these hate groups. Meanwhile, it's taking some of that money

(33:03):
and then giving it to members of the groups. Now,
of course, the SPLC has claimed that these are all
informants but and that the whole purpose of paying them
is to get information on violence before it happens. And
we do have a few situations that the SPLC has
highlighted where information from these people did result in criminal action,

(33:26):
so we can't just throw out the idea entirely. That said,
the SPLC has a clear incentive to exaggerate hate. I mean,
this is the thing that I wrote the book about
because throughout the years, you know, America is not racist
in the same way that it was in the nineteen fifties.
I don't know if you noticed, but we're not in

(33:48):
the middle of the Civil rights movement anymore. And I
think many Americans have rightly try very hard to avoid
harboring any sort of racism because we know it's wrong.
And America has made great strides after the Civil Rights
Movement throughout the period. And one of the main reasons

(34:09):
why the SPLC exists is because so many Americans wanted
to fund the SPLC's efforts against the Clan in the
nineteen eighties when they sued clan groups into bankruptcy. But
the SPLC trades on that history to smear mainstream conservative
and Christian organizations, putting them on a hate map with

(34:31):
Clan chapters. And that is a way that they artificially
increased the supply of hate to meet the demand that
their donors have to give to an organization that is
fighting hate. So we already know that the SPLC exaggerates hate.
Now from this indictment, we know that they were funding

(34:52):
some of the very hate activities that they claimed to oppose.
That's why it violates the law. It's because they're engaging
in a routine or they're allegedly engaging in a system
where they're committing wire fraud by sending out these messages
saying give to us, we're fighting the clan and then

(35:13):
clandestinely funding. And by the way, in this new indictment,
they're accused of funding. They're accused of paying for cross
burning material. They're accused of paying for KKK hoods and
KKK cloaks and like this, you cannot make this up.
There are out there. There was at least once, or

(35:36):
probably more than once, across burning that was funded by
the SPLC. There are white Clan hoods in existence today
because of the SPLC funding that would not exist without
that funding, according to this indictment. So we really have
to see what the SPLC says in defense of itself

(35:56):
on these particular things. I think it's very very revealing
that all of this information has now seen the light
of day, and I think Americans we should have already
known that the SPLC stank to high heaven. But this
indictment really underscores the main purpose of my book, which
was to show Americans and the world that this is

(36:19):
a corrupt organization that cannot be trusted as a clearinghouse for.

Speaker 3 (36:23):
Hate buying cross burning materials. Tyler, thank you, brother, I
appreciate it. I'm sorry. I think I'd find it delirious
and I want a bunch of turt bolts. Anyway. Maybe
I'm just in a good mood because I take a
male vitality stack for chalk every single day. Do you

(36:44):
do that?

Speaker 10 (36:45):
What?

Speaker 3 (36:46):
Nat? Your herbal supplements are running through your veins right now.
You know, masculinity itself is obviously under attack in this country.
And one of the ways is comical. We have estrogen
the water. When you're sitting there drinking water and you
have to drink water, you're drinking estrogen. You're showering in estrogen.

(37:08):
Our t levels are in free fall. Because of this.
We have to be proactive. You can't hope for the best.
That's where chalk comes in. Natural herbal supplements from choc
will have you full of pep and feeling great. All
the time. Go get a subscription, get a male Vitality
stack or a female Vitality stack, c Hoq dot Com,

(37:30):
slash Jesse TV. We'll be back.

Speaker 1 (37:41):
The communists already lost so.

Speaker 3 (37:46):
Well. I like the sounds of it. Let's find out
if that's the reality of it. Joining me now, the
great John Phillips of John Phillips Show. Hey, John, I
am rooting for Spencer Pratt. I very much admire what
Spencer Pratt is doing. I think he's run a heck
of a campaign, But California is so calmy. I just
have a hard time believing they're going to allow anybody

(38:06):
to win. Tell me about it.

Speaker 5 (38:09):
On election night, I went to bed with Spencer Pratt
eight points ahead of Nitia Rahman, who's the socialist city
councilwoman who's also running for mayor. Then the next day
they counted a bunch of more ballots and his lead
was knocked down from eight to seven. Okay, it's still
a sizeable lead. I'm doing my radio show yesterday, and

(38:32):
about right as I'm about to begin my third hour,
I noticed that Spencer Pratt, which who was a heavy
favorite in the embedding markets to advance to the November
runoff suddenly starts tanking. No new votes were counted, there's
no new information that could justify that happening to my eye.

(38:57):
But all of a sudden, he went from looking like
this sure winner to an underdog. And now I think
he has a one in three shot according to the
betting markets, of making the November runoff, despite the fact
that he's still seven points ahead of her. And I
guess what they're basing this on is that the state

(39:19):
of California said that they're going to continue counting ballots
for I guess, the next thirty seven days, and there
is in Los Angeles County alone, something like seven hundred
thousand uncounted ballots that they have in their possession that
just haven't been counted yet. Our Secretary of State went

(39:39):
on television and said that she's going to take her time,
she's not going to rush, and if you want to
know when a winner is going to be declared, just
sit back and wait and stop asking. And that's the
attitude that they have. So I would feel pretty confident
if I was ahead by seven percent two days after

(40:00):
the election, But who knows. Crazy things happen here in
North Korea.

Speaker 3 (40:06):
Okay, John, let me see if I can get you
to try to twist yourself into k notce with this question. Here,
is there possibly possibly an innocent explanation for all this stuff.

Speaker 5 (40:23):
If they were here, they would say, what is important
to them is making sure that everyone can vote. And
we're going to give voters the maximum amount of time
to cast a ballot, and that is going to slow
down the process of counting the ballots, and it's going
to gum everything up. But it's so important to give

(40:43):
people as many opportunities as possible to vote that we're
willing to put up with this. That would be the
argument that they make. However, how can you run a
state like this where you have an election and no
one knows two days after who won and who lost,
and they say that they're doing this in the name

(41:05):
of democracy. Well, okay, let's look at it from that
point of view. If you are Spencer Pratt, if you
are Steve Hilton, if you're an underdog candidate and you're
moving on to the general election being denied the front
page picture on the newspaper the next day that shows
you at your party and everyone getting excited and celebrating,

(41:28):
you can raise a ton of money off of that.
People are excited, they're feeling generous, they're willing to give
you money, they're willing to sign up to volunteer for
your campaign, they're willing to do all of these things
that generally speaking happens when someone who excited the electorate wins. Well,
people have the attention span of a net. So let's

(41:50):
say both of them advanced, but it takes them thirty
seven days to make it official. Well, by that time,
everyone has moved on and no one's paying attention anymore,
and the big bump, the big bounce that you would
get out of it is evaporated. I live in an
area where I have a very purple district for the
state legislature that I live in, and it always takes

(42:13):
them a month and a half to figure out that
our guy won reelection. Well, okay, that means he doesn't
get the committee assignments that he wants. That means he
can't hire the staffers that he wants to hire. He
doesn't go through orientation, and instead of hitting the ground
running when the session starts, the representative for my district
is trying to do all the things that he should

(42:33):
have been doing long ago, but couldn't because he didn't
know that he won. It's a mess.

Speaker 3 (42:39):
Okay, how much of this Commy run California nonsense is
intentional versus just garden variety Idiotsy, These people are morons.
If they weren't, they wouldn't be commies. How much of
this is these people were just dumb.

Speaker 5 (42:56):
This is how they run shop. And I believe this
is what old will prevent Gavin Newsom from becoming president
because this is how we do things here. Those homes
in the Pacific Palisades and Altadena burned down a year
and a half ago. Many of them don't have permits
to even start the rebuilding process. Only a couple of

(43:18):
them have been rebuilt. I mean the vast majority, it's
still rubble. It still looks like a bomb went off there.
You have a situation in Oakland right now where crime
is totally out of control, despite the fact that they
say that crime is in free fall. And one of
the popular crimes that's going on there now is that
it's relatively easy to steal the Korean cars Kias and Hondas.

(43:42):
So what happens is they steal two of them and
then they drive one through the wall of the seven
to eleven. They use the other one as the getaway car.
They tie the ATM machine to the getaway car and
they drive away, leaving the Kia in the rubble of
the seven to eleven. So you're the seven to eleven
and you just had someone drive through your wall and

(44:04):
steal your ATM and the city of Oakland tells them
to fill out a form online. They don't even show
up to the scene half the time, and it's just
something that happens. It's something that just goes on here.
Downtown La. True story Downtown La. There was just a
bomb that went off in one of the buildings, because
there's a lot of empty buildings in downtown La. As

(44:27):
it turns out, it was homeless squatters who were there,
many of whom were on meth, and they had a
bomb that went off and it destroyed that building, and
it destroyed a building that people were actually living in
next door. So we were doing the story on the
show and we find out that there's squatters in multiple
buildings on that street, and they burned down multiple buildings

(44:50):
over the course of a short period of time, and
the people who lived there were calling the city saying, hey,
you know they're lighting bombs off, and they're blowing up
these buildings, and you know there's collateral damage in the neighborhood,
there's more squatters. Do something about it. And the answer
is fill out a form. We'll get around to it
when we get around to it. And this is just

(45:12):
how things are done here. It's not a way to
run a state. It's a completely backwards way to live.
But this is what they.

Speaker 3 (45:19):
Do, all right, John, Does Steve Hilton have a chance
to become governor of California? Looks like he's going to
get through this thing, at least this stage of it,
to my eye.

Speaker 5 (45:31):
And a lot of people got mad at me for
saying this, But the way I see it, the one
lane that Republicans had to win that seat was to
have a Democratic walkout on the November ballot. It was
for Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco, the Republican sheriff of
Riverside County, those two candidates to end up on the
November ballot, and the Democrats wouldn't have an option on

(45:53):
the ballot. When President Trump endorsed Steve Hilton, that took
that option off the table, sent Republicans coalesced behind Hilton.
The high water mark for a Republican candidate for statewide
office was a few years ago when Lonnie chen who's
a regular pundit on cable news and a professor at

(46:15):
Stanford University A ran for controller. He had all the
newspapers behind him, he had everyone in the Republican party
behind him, he was well funded, he had the best resume,
and I think he did forty four percent. So the
way I see things, I think that the Republican candidate
at the top of the ticket has a low water

(46:36):
mark of thirty seven or thirty eight percent and a
high water mark of forty four percent. Now, anything can happen,
but I think that Steve Hilton would go into this
contest as a heavy underdog.

Speaker 3 (46:50):
Well, that was right between the eyes. That's how I
wanted it. Thanks John, come back soon, brother, freaking California man.
Light in the mood. Next, I really enjoy Scott Persent

(47:12):
because he is unbelievably combative. He's clearly very intelligent and
very combative, and you are not. It doesn't matter what
you are, United States Senator or anything. You are not
going to sit there and bright Scott persent without getting
it back. He's just extra spicy and it makes me

(47:32):
laugh who he was.

Speaker 1 (47:35):
Did you actually tell Paulty you were going to punch
him in the face?

Speaker 2 (47:41):
No, sir, I actually said it was going to kick
his ass. Senator Widen has mendaciously slandered the Treasury Building
in an attempt to cover up his son having an
investment meeting with Jeffrey Epstein to ask for funding.

Speaker 3 (48:00):
Thank you, Chairman.

Speaker 11 (48:04):
Yes, let's be clear here. Nobody is interested in the
ramblings of a capo in the most corrupt regime in
American history. We want to get some facts about this deal.
That's what we're here for.

Speaker 3 (48:19):
Thank you, well, thank you, And I will ask my
questions first today.

Speaker 2 (48:23):
And we would like to hear what Adam Widen and
Jeffrey Epstein talked about. Your son's largest investment position was
Rix Cabaret. So did your son and Jeffrey Epstein talk
about pole dancing as he begged him for money using
your limited credibility?

Speaker 3 (48:43):
Should I just proceed it? I'm going to proceed with
my questions. Like I said, Spicy see them all us
