Speaker 1 (00:02):
What's going on with these South Africans. We'll talk about that.
Donald Trump is overseas, we have deals going on today.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
What a huge show tonight on I'm.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Right, okay, let's talk about human nature, tribalism, so many things, communism,
other things. Because the Afrikaanners, if you will, are in

(00:32):
the news.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Now what are we talking about here? South Africa?

Speaker 1 (00:36):
South Africa is a very, very fascinating place. Highly recommend
you look into it. We've talked about it before on
this show. But it's a place. Well, let's just do
a brief little history of it so we have some understanding. Remember,
the world is always trying to figure out how to
move goods to and fro. The world figured out, hey,

(00:57):
why don't we go around Africa. We're talking about Europe.
We want things from places like India, The Spice Island's
over there. We're up here in Europe. How do we
get there? We really have to cross it. So they
figured out, well, wait a minute, we can go around Africa.
As the Europeans started to go around Africa. I want
you to think about the various countries on the coast

(01:18):
of Africa, almost like gas stations. That's really, really dumb down.
But think about it like gas stations. If you're on ship,
a caravan of ships, you are going to need to
make stops along the way to resupply fix things. It
just happens that way so slowly, but surely. Because of
this shipping, places in Africa began to be civilized, if

(01:43):
you will. Settled is probably a more polite way to
put it. But they took tribal areas and European towns
started popping up, and of course South Africa was the
most choice place because that's the dip. It's down there
in the south, and there's a long history of ugliness
there in South Africa. The Boer War is something that

(02:05):
is probably worth looking into if you'd like to learn
a little something about it. But that's a long way
of saying there's a lot of history around South Africa.
But for our purposes, we're going to talk about tribalism,
the American left, the worldwide Left, South Africa, other things.
Right now, white people in South Africa, specifically.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
White rural farmers, are under attack.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
The South African government pretty much consents to this. The
carnage there has been unbelievable. Many of you have followed
along with it, or I should say some of you have.
We've talked about it before on this show, remember when
we had this interview.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
So we have the Africaners, the South Africans. Now not
all white South Africans are Africaners, so we're talking about
those primarily of Dutch but also French and German ancestry,
who historically have controlled and owned the farmlands. They are
now coming under the heavy fist of the South African government,
which has passed laws that would allow the government to
confiscate their farm lands without compensation. So you have the

(03:10):
Trump administration rolling out ideas to bring them in under
refugee status. Now I commented to your producer that this
is right up your alley based on the stuff that
you tweet about. Because the Democrats have been big on
using immigration as a political weapon. Now you can look
at Springfield, Ohio, which really backfired for them there. But
in Minnesota, they've guaranteed that within a couple of decades

(03:32):
that the Somalian population that they've imported into Minneapolis will
continue to produce Democrat dividends and probably keep that in
the blue column long term. So this population, given that
they're mostly Dutch. You can look at western Michigan as
a good example. You're probably looking at least at three
to two Republican electors.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
So what happened in South Africa. We'll get to the
immigration white people portion of this, But what happened in
South Africa is exactly what the American left tried very
hard to do here. It's just they don't have the
numbers to get it done yet. They neither hear all
that talk about reparations. Sometimes reparations, there's reparations that, well,
what did you think they meant by that? The left
in South Africa took over, completely conquered everything, and they

(04:14):
went for their reparations. Now they encouraged their citizens to
invade white farms with machetes and do unspeakable things to
white farmers. It's been a really, really terrible situation there,
and of course, surprise, surprise, the country is in virtual collapse.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
They are losing power. It's awful.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
So Trump brings in sixty South Africans, white africaners, families, men, women, children,
see them there waving flags.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Who brings them in as refugees because they're under attacked,
they're under assault in their country. Now that brings us
to where we are as a.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Country and our left and what we're up against. You see,
there is there's a way of thinking out there that
the left is inherently racist. You've probably heard the right
say this before, Well, we're not racist.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
You're always calling us Nazis.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
The left they're the real racists. And when you hear
comments like this from ihan Omar, it reinforces that notion
that the left are actually real racists.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
Here she was, I would say our country should be
more fearful of white men across our country because they
are actually causing most of the deaths within this country.
We should be profiling, monitoring, and creating policies to fight

(05:41):
the radicalization of white men.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
Now, let me ask you something. Do you think she
said that for racism reasons?

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Let me explain.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Yes, it manifests itself as racism. It definitely does, and
we will get into that in a moment. But that's
not actually why the modern left despises white people. The
modern left is, well, they operate just like communists have
always operated, and communists are what I like to call

(06:15):
tribal to the extreme, tribal in the worst possible ways.
All human beings are inherently tribal in some way. It's
just human nature. You tend to want to group up with,
not necessarily your race, although sometimes it's your race. You
tend to want to group up with other people who
are like you, think, like you, share your values, and

(06:36):
so it's very natural to be tribal. What communism does,
as it always does, is it takes the natural parts
of human nature and it turns them evil. It pours
gasoline on them and makes them the worst possible versions
of themselves. The modern left doesn't hate white people because
of the color of white people's skin. The modern left

(06:59):
hates white people because it analyzes all the tribes in
modern America in twenty twenty five America, all the different
racial groups, religious groups, whatever it may be, and you
know what it sees. You see, they don't look at
a society the way you do or I do. You
know what it sees. They look at all this stuff,
and you know what they see. White people are the

(07:20):
only thing holding them back. When they study the demographics
of modern America and they look at how black people vote,
and how women voted, how this and how that, how
Muslims vote, and when they study when they break it
down in the worst possible ways, each and every demographic,
they always come to the same conclusion, we would have

(07:42):
ultimate power if it wasn't for white people. And so
they made a determination and it really wasn't based on
skin color.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
It was based on power. You see.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
The determination is white people inherently are the problem. We
might outnumber them and smash them, and if we are
successful in doing that, then we will finally complete our
communist conquest of America and burn this country down the
way we want to Keep in mind, Donald Trump brought

(08:14):
in sixty people from South Africa, sixty people. Joe Biden
brought in twenty million, sixty people from South Africa. This
is how do the media responded Trump administration.

Speaker 5 (08:26):
They're saying that essentially, these white South Africans assimilate better
and they're also not as as much of a security risk.
That's really causing a lot of people to be appalled. Frankly,
and I issually to tell people that there's violence that
they're talking about that are dealing with these Afrikaaners. I've
been hearing from people that say there is violence in
South Africa, but it's affecting everybody of every single.

Speaker 6 (08:46):
Race, Katie Ducion. And part of that is that the
people who are native to that land deserve their rightful
land back. That is not what the Afrikaaners actually want
to have happened, which are the white Africans and so
who are not originally from Africa who colonize South Africa also,
and so that is what they are saying is discrimination. Now,

(09:09):
if the constitution in South Africa is discriminatory, they have
their checks and balances in that land just like we do,
and that is for them to So if the Afrikaaners
don't actually like the land, they can leave that country
they are. They can actually even go to where their
native land is, which is probably Germany, Holland, Holland.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
It's pretty obvious. Are these people inherently racist? Well maybe
maybe not, but this is about power, you see, power
what helps them. Well, the modern Democrat Party is a
gigantic collaboration between the most despicable people on the planet.
That's why rapists vote Democrat. That's why illegal is vote Democrat.

(09:59):
That's what what every scumbag in the world seems to
prefer in. Democrats are in power. Terrorists, Gee, hotties love Democrats.
They hate Republicans. It's not an accident. It's all about power.
These people. Remember what they said when Joe Biden was
bringing in all the twenty million.

Speaker 7 (10:14):
We also faced the crisis of more than eighty million
displaced people suffering all around the world. The United States
moral leadership on refugee issues was a point of biparties
and consensus for so many decades. When I first got here,
we shine the light lamp of liberty on oppressed people.
We offered safe havens for those fleeing violence or persecution,

(10:39):
and our example pushed other nations to open wide their
doors as well. So today I'm approving an executive order
to begin the hard work of restoring our refugee admissions
program to help meet the unprecedented global need. This executive
order will position us to be able to raise the
refugee admission back up to one hundred and twenty five

(11:02):
thousand persons.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
Now, was that about refugees? Why did the left cheer? It?
Was it about refugees at all?

Speaker 1 (11:11):
Was it about deep deep inside your heart? Don't you
have a heart for these oppressed people? It was about power, destruction,
the destruction of America. That's why they brought in as
many people from Venezuelan prison gangs as possible. That's why
they brought in a bunch of devil worshiping voodooers from Haiti,
as many as humanly possible, as many as humanly possible,

(11:33):
because it would help outnumber the white people who they
have decided are the enemy. But it's not only white people.
By the way, don't think it's just about race. Remember
the one time, in fact, it's the only time I
can remember, Alejandro Majorcis started talking tough about stopping this
refugee stuff.

Speaker 8 (11:49):
He had a message for people in Cuba and in Haiti.

Speaker 9 (11:52):
Don't come to the US.

Speaker 10 (11:54):
Listen, allow me to be clear. If you take to
the sea, he will not come to the United States.
The time is never right to attempt migration by sea.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Why Cubans hate communism, the Venezuelan prison gang They'll vote
Democrat forever. Cubans. You ever talked to a Cuban. I'm
friends with a bunch of them. Gosh, they probably hate
communism more than I do. The Cubans were the only
group of people I heard the Biden administration ever mentioned
and say don't come here. The only group it's not

(12:33):
actually about race, but we should have a talk about
how it manifests really quickly before we wrap this up.
It does obviously manifest itself as open naked anti white racism.
Any white kid in this country who's ever looked for
a college scholarship, for example, and sees the ones he

(12:54):
qualifies for versus the ones everyone else qualifies for, understands
that there is a systemic racism very much in place
in this country. Remember the American media, they printed articles
gleefully after the Black Lives Matter thing, gleefully printed articles
that ninety percent of corporate jobs in America went to
non whites. They have put into place a system that

(13:16):
oppresses white people on purpose, not because they hate white people,
but because they think white people are the biggest threat
to their power, and so their intention is to destroy
these people.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
The Episcopalian Church, did you see that.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
They love handing out all kinds of money to bring
in as many refugees from every savage place on the planet.
They just decided they're quitting their taxpayer funded refugee program.
Why because sixty white people just got here from South Africa.
So I will say this, I am not being dismissive

(13:55):
of the open naked anti white racism of the American left.
They do genuinely despise white people, and not just you know,
black ones or the Hispanic ones. The white leftists hate
white people. It's a real self hatred of white people thing.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
It is.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Saw a video this morning of a lady surrounding a
bus full of gang members, illegal alien gang members, blowing
them kisses on the way out, an old white lady.
Keep in mind, the American left is so suicidal. The
white ones will commit suicide for themselves and their children
in order to push forward the revolution. It's a terrible situation,

(14:32):
and it brings me to my final point. Tribalism is
once it becomes weaponized and evil, like the communists always
do with it, it makes more tribalism inevitable, inevitable. We
will We're already seeing it, but we will see the
rise of more white racism, not against white people, but

(14:54):
white people being racist in this country.

Speaker 2 (14:56):
We will see its rise.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
It is inevitable because they're tired of turning on the
television and hearing white people suck. White people suck. White
people are evil, White people are evil. Black people are saints. Inevitably,
that kind of tribalism will create more tribalism. It's a very,
very terrible situation. And all this happens because Democrats and

(15:18):
Republicans allowed as many people as humanly possible to flood
into this country for years unchecked. Now here we are
tearing away at each other.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
Terrible situation. All that may have made.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
You uncomfortable, but I am right. We'll talk to Jeremy
Carl about this and other things.

Speaker 2 (15:37):
Next.

Speaker 1 (15:38):
Let me talk to you about somebody who's oh American.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Paul with Wasson Watch. Wasson Watch.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
You see Paul as a United States Marine, a veteran,
I know them, fought for this country. Makes these incredible watches.
No they're not ten thousand dollars or something like that,
but they're incredible watches. They look good, and Paul shares
our values loudly with his company. He says, we are
pro life. When I got my Wasson Watch, I got

(16:09):
a Bible Verse with it. Does that sound like the
kind of company you should support. That's my kind of
tribe right there. Wassonwatch dot Com promo code Jesse gets
you a discount on the best watch you'll ever have
wassonwatch dot com.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
We'll be back.

Speaker 11 (16:34):
President Trump is saying to white africanads from South Africa,
I'll give you refugee status. So we're bringing in white
Africans who.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
We don't know if they're criminal. We don't know this, uh,
what they went through.

Speaker 11 (16:47):
In the legal process in South Africa. But people right
here in Nook, we're going to assume they're all criminal.
We're gonna out bring them out. And if the man
wants to say, wait a minute, let's have to do process,
lock him up, he's trustpassing. It is as blatantly a
double standard as one can get.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
Well, it certainly is blatant something. It's just so very obvious.
As I mentioned in the open, these people have decided
that white people are the biggest threat to their power.
So any white person, anyone South African American, is automatically
considered to be the enemy, somebody to be smashed and
destroyed while we bring in more MS thirteen gang members

(17:27):
joining me now. Jeremy Carl, author of the book The
Unprotected Class. It's about anti white racism in America. Jeremy,
it's obvious to anyone who pays attention to left has
studied the demographics, and they've decided that white people are
the thing holding them back from power, and that's why
they talk like this.

Speaker 12 (17:47):
Well, that's exactly right, Jesse.

Speaker 13 (17:48):
And you've been really good at calling this out in
very unapologetic terms for a long time when other people
were running and hiding, and I and a few other
folks have certainly noticed that. I think, you know, it's
really been I think one of the best things that
really Trump does is it's such a mask off moment,
a moment for our enemies, right, you know, they say, oh, refugees,

(18:09):
is we welcome? They say all these things, But all
of a sudden, as soon as it's africaner refugees, even
if it's just fifty of them, and they don't look
like you know, they look like they're sort of respectable,
hard working sorts of people who have been vetted by
the way by our government, then all of a sudden,
it's the apocalypse. And it's pretty remarkable to watch.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
Jeremy.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
Can you give us, as best you can a little
breakdown of the history in South Africa? I mentioned it
for five seconds in the opening, but people don't understand
how ugly the history is there and how it led
to where they are now, which is people are getting
hacked with machetes.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
It's freaking awful, absolutely.

Speaker 13 (18:52):
I mean, so the first thing to understand is that
Africaners have been in South Africa.

Speaker 12 (18:58):
For four hundred years.

Speaker 13 (18:59):
So if we're going to say somehow that they don't
belong there, then certainly, you know what claim would Americans
have to belong here? So I mean, that's that's the
first ridiculous thing. But secondly, of course because of a
Part eight and I'm not in any way of course
defending that as a system, the Africaners have always sort
of been the bad people in the way that the

(19:21):
left tends to dominate history. But the reality has been
that ever since the so called Rainbow Nation has you know,
led in multi party democracy, what you've had is an
orgy of crime, an orgy of violence, a collapse of
state capacity, and racially targeted killings, particularly focusing on farmers

(19:42):
but also in urban areas. It's just been really, really,
really unsafe, and they've actually been very specifically racially targeted
from some of the leading politicians in South Africa, like
Julius Malayma for example.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
That's great.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
Andrea Mitchell will on meet the press said this.

Speaker 14 (20:02):
And they got this big celebration and these are the
only you know, white African descendants of apartheid European colonials
or those who participated in a part. Hey, there are
of all ages, including children.

Speaker 5 (20:17):
South Africa says that the allegations about persecution of these
people the allegations of false according to the South African's what.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
South Africa says, there's no South African.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
Persecution of these people. Jeremy, Well, that pretty much settles it.

Speaker 12 (20:31):
Right, I mean, it's just ludicrous.

Speaker 13 (20:33):
I mean it's I mean, it's been documented in numerous places.
There have been films about this. There are numerous I
mean when I say numerous, I'm talking about hundreds of
cases of racially targeted murderers, particularly of farmers. But again
throughout you have this this chant killed the Boor, which

(20:55):
is a sort of famous South African chant and song
that has been revived a lot by against one of
the leading politicians in South Africa, and the South African
Criminal Court has said that this is somehow protected and
it's not in fact threatening violence. But all these people know,
I mean, they're leaving because the security situation there is

(21:19):
incredibly unstable. And this is of course what actual refugees
look like. It's families. It's not a bunch of young
men all lining up for economic opportunities, which is what
we've gotten used to in America.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
What happened with the Episcopalian Church, Apparently they're cutting off
funding to NGOs now that it's white people do have
that right.

Speaker 13 (21:44):
Yeah, I mean again, this is just one of these
remarkable mask off moments, and that they've been aiding in
a betting, by the way, with our tax dollars. Innumerable
refugee resettlements, you know, a few of which are presumably legitimate,
at least according to our laws, but a vast number
of them frankly fraudulent, you know, for people who are

(22:05):
not even refugees.

Speaker 12 (22:06):
But as soon as you have.

Speaker 13 (22:09):
Afric honors come here, suddenly it's a huge scandal. Suddenly
we can't allow it. Suddenly it's in fact such a
moral stain that we can't even participate in it. And
they're going to drop out of this program that they've
done for decades. And it's really remarkable because really the
only way you looked at those refugees, I mean, the
only way that you can suggest that they are somehow complicit,

(22:35):
even if this is going to be a valid criticism
in what happened in the South African government forty years
ago or more, is to suggest that there's some sort
of hereditary blood guilt as a result of being and
Andrew Mitchell frankly seem to be saying that as a
result of them being afric honors. So it's just really
dangerous language that the left is using here, Jeremy.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
But isn't that hereditary blood guilds? Isn't that what the
left genuinely believes. I mean, it's hard to listen to
these people, whether they're professor's, Democrat, politicians, media members, it's
hard to listen to these people and think of anything else.
They genuinely believe America was stolen, we're on stollen land,
that white people in general, white Europeans, people of European

(23:20):
descent are inherently evil. Everybody native is of course saintly,
and that you know, to repair all these damages, white
people really should be smashed, and frankly deserve it.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
I know people who think.

Speaker 12 (23:33):
Like this, No, no, they absolutely do.

Speaker 13 (23:36):
And this is again the really valuable part of Trump
is forcing them to mask off in this way because
now they have to really own that right. They can
kind of dance around it normally and say, oh, well,
that's not really what we mean. But then when you're
confronted with this situation where you have these people who
are clearly fleeing, a situation in which they're unstable, when

(23:57):
you say, not only are we not going to participate,
but we're going to drop out entirely, and this is
our version of social justice, our version of religion. It
really it really just sort of shows the sort of
enemy that we're dealing with.

Speaker 12 (24:10):
And so I talk about this a lot, actually.

Speaker 13 (24:13):
In the chapter of the book that's dedicated to talking
about the way we teach history in America.

Speaker 12 (24:18):
But again, not an accident.

Speaker 13 (24:21):
This is inherent to their worldview, and it's great that
we're exposing it. You're just bringing fifty refugees into the country.
I mean, it's kind of just amazing.

Speaker 12 (24:29):
To watch.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
Jeremy appreciate you as always my men. All Right, the
media is running an op. They're always running ops, but
the running one right now is it working?

Speaker 2 (24:44):
It seems like it is. We're going to talk to.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
Julie benderis about that in a moment. Before we talk
to Julie, I want to talk to you about natural
herbal supplements from Jock. You see, T level are at
record lows. We have lost fifty percent of our testosterone
in this country in fifty years. Gentlemen, do you want

(25:07):
to know why you're out of energy all the time
while you get down all the time. It's kind of
depressed and you can't explain why it's because your T
levels are garbage. You don't need a needle, a doctor,
you don't need any of that. You need Chuck natural
verbal supplements. A male vitality stack from Chalk will have
you feeling ten years younger in ninety days.

Speaker 2 (25:29):
Are you ready to feel ten years younger?

Speaker 1 (25:31):
I'm serious, You're gonna be so full of energy you're
gonna be coming out of your skin. Choq dot com
slash jessetv. They have female vitality stacks for the ladies. Ladies,
if you're looking for a bunch of extra PEP male
vitalities stacks, they have it all. Chalk dot com, slash jessetv.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
We'll be back.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
Well, it's important to understand the media is lying to
you most of the time. Especially the corporate media. Not
all of them, but most of the corporate media. If
you see them repeating the exact same line about the
exact same story, it's a lie. It's something they've made up,
and they do this on purpose. We'll talk to Julie
in a moment about why you've probably seen something about
Trump accepting a jet from k Tar or Cutter. All

(26:23):
my smart friends call it Cutter. I call it Ktar
because I'm uneducated. But that's not at all what actually happened.
John Carl, of course, wants you to believe that Trump's
out there taking jets under the table.

Speaker 5 (26:36):
Why you're saying, people who knew that luxury jet as
a personal get to you, why not leave it?

Speaker 15 (26:41):
You'r ANBC fake news right?

Speaker 2 (26:43):
Why it's only ABC? Well, a few of.

Speaker 15 (26:46):
You would, let me tell you, you should be embarrassed
to ask him their question. They're giving us a free jet.
I could say, no, no, no, don't give us. I
want to pay you a billion or four hundred million
or whatever it is. Well, I could say thank you very.

Speaker 5 (27:01):
Much at this and say have you ever been given
a gift worth millions of dollars?

Speaker 15 (27:06):
And in not receis not a gift to me. It's
a gift to the Department of Defense. And you should
know better because you've been embarrassed enough, and so has
your network. Your network is a disaster. ABC is a disaster.

Speaker 1 (27:20):
Well, let's talk about why they're like this with an
actual journalist joining me now, Julie banderas Emmy Award winning
Fox anchor and of course, author of a wonderful book,
A Monumental Mistake from Brave Books, which you know how
big of a fan of Brave Books we are here, Julie.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
I really genuinely want to know.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
I mean, somebody like you, you reach the tippy top
of your profession.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
But these people, they get to.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
The top of the profession and they all just decide
to lie.

Speaker 8 (27:49):
Why because they have to spread that message. They have
to be anti Trump. It's their jobs. I mean, that's
what they did during the Biden administration, which is the
whole reason why the bid and cover up happened in
the first place. You know, everyone knew that the president
was incapable and he was cognitively declining at rapid fire speed.

Speaker 9 (28:09):
But the mainstream media even admitted after the fact.

Speaker 8 (28:13):
The reason why they didn't ever talk about it is
because they didn't want to put a feather in Trump's cap.
They didn't want to help Trump because their job is
to take Trump down. So anytime that Trump does anything,
no matter how transparent it is, somehow the mainstream media
is going to try to spin it and make it
seem as if they're trying to hide something. The only
administration that was hiding anything from the American people was

(28:35):
the Biden administration.

Speaker 9 (28:36):
And now all of a sudden, we.

Speaker 8 (28:37):
Have a president who is not only transparent, he holds
the news conferences. He talks to the media, even the
mainstream media, who he obviously dislikes and has zero respect for,
he still invites them into these press conferences. They're still
allowed to ask the ridiculous questions, but not without being
called out by the president. I mean, he flat out
said that is a ridiculous question. The President very well.

Speaker 9 (28:59):
Could have tried to hide this. He could have possibly
tried to.

Speaker 8 (29:02):
Make it seem as if, you know, it had nothing
to do with him, and somehow that the Department of
Defense was involved in that he didn't even know about it.

Speaker 9 (29:09):
He could play dumb about it, but he didn't.

Speaker 8 (29:11):
He's being forthright and that's what this president does, and
the mainstream media doesn't like it. They only like shady
presidents who lie to the American public as long as
they're Democrats, and they will continue to cover up those
lies for as long as they can, and they will
try to block the truth. And that is coming from
President Trump.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
Trulie.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
Is this a corporate problem or is this a journalist problem?
Because I'm trying to figure out if these people like ABC,
the John Carls of the world, if these people are
just simply doing what their bosses tell them or want
them to do, they're taking the company line, or if
they genuinely have these feelings.

Speaker 8 (29:47):
Oh no, it's twofold. I mean, first of all, everything
comes from the corporate level. Let's just talk about that.

Speaker 9 (29:52):
Okay.

Speaker 8 (29:52):
No journalist is going to go on TV and say
something that doesn't bode well with corporate.

Speaker 9 (29:58):
Okay, corporate pays their checks.

Speaker 8 (30:00):
So it starts at the top and it makes it
way down, and so it's bled so badly at this
point that there are no real true journalists in mainstream
media anymore. You know, I remember growing up watching NBCCBS, ABC,
and I remember them reporting the news. I don't remember
you know the bias in the news business until I

(30:21):
actually started working at Fox News Channel twenty years ago,
and that's what I really noticed.

Speaker 16 (30:26):
Wow.

Speaker 8 (30:27):
You know, these mainstream broadcast networks are no longer unbiased.
They are completely biased, and they're there to sell a message.
And what they're doing is they're harming the American people
because the American people are.

Speaker 9 (30:39):
Getting fake news.

Speaker 8 (30:41):
I hate to say it because I always couldn't stand
when Trump would use that terminology, but they're not getting
the truth and so therefore they're feeding the American people lies.
And then when it comes to elections, the American people
are voting based on lies. They don't even know who
they're voting for. All those who voted for Biden, they
didn't get.

Speaker 9 (30:59):
The truth about Biden.

Speaker 8 (31:00):
They certainly didn't get the truth about Hunter Biden before
they voted him to office the first time. Had we
known about Hunter Biden's dealings, maybe he wouldn't have gotten elected.

Speaker 9 (31:09):
But that was the mainstream media that decided to hide
all of that.

Speaker 8 (31:12):
And that's how politics have become so divisive now because
everybody actually believes what they hear. Do a little digging,
don't be lazy and believe everything you hear, especially when
you're watching mainstream media.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
Truly, aren't they in the end, This is something that
weirds me out about it though. In the end, aren't
they harming themselves? Especially today, everybody has a smartphone, Everyone
gets their their news from a million different places. I
don't have to get home after work and turn on
ABC for ten minutes a night. I'm up on the
news before that. So if I have one of these
major news organizations and I lie through my teeth and

(31:47):
violate the trust of the viewing public, eventually they're going
to leave me, and then I have no more power.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
In the end, they're hurting themselves.

Speaker 8 (31:54):
Because they're so brainwashed their viewers that they're never going.

Speaker 9 (31:57):
To see the light. That's the unfortunate part.

Speaker 8 (32:00):
When I first started working at Fox News Channel, I remember,
you know, the brand was fair and balanced. That was
what Fox News Channel sort of was born on, right,
in order to be the other opposing side, because up
until Fox News Channel was born, you didn't have the
opposing side. All the views were one view and they
were all left liberal, elitist views. So yeah, I don't

(32:20):
think that the broadcast networks will ever be out of
a job because you're always going to have ignorant people
that are buying into these lives because that's what they've
been they've been buying up for years and years and years.
I think it's time, though, finally for some Democrats to
come out and actually acknowledge that what the President has
done regarding certain legislation, regarding DOSEE, regarding illegal immigration deportation,

(32:42):
these are all issues that should not be a Republican
or Democrat. These are American issues. If you are a
registered voter and you're an American in this country paying taxes,
you should be very happy about these decisions saving the
country and American taxpayers thousands of dollars each, Okay, truly
a trillion dollars. President Trump and Elon Musk have saved Americans.

Speaker 9 (33:05):
Why would any Democrat have a problem with that. It's
so clear and obvious.

Speaker 8 (33:08):
And if you were mainstream video, mainstream media viewer, and
you don't see that there's a real bias in this country,
you need to really think again before you start to
digest all the lies that you're listening to.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
Julia, I have two kids. I know you've got a
household of them as well.

Speaker 8 (33:25):
They're everywhere like every right turn, there's a kid, and
they all came from me.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
So yeah, three believe me. I've got two six footers,
so it seems like mine are everywhere.

Speaker 16 (33:35):
Yeah yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:37):
One thing that blows me away is not just about
my sons, because that's fairly predictable, but my sons and
their friends. What hardcore little writings they are. I wasn't
even political at that age. I didn't give a crap
about politics at all. But maybe hardcore writings is not
the right way to put it. They have nothing but
complete disdain for Democrats, for the modern American left. You

(33:57):
wrote this book, a monumental mista. Talk to me about
that in America's youth today.

Speaker 8 (34:03):
Okay, Well, first of all, as you've seen in our country,
we have adults that are hateful.

Speaker 9 (34:09):
We have college students that are hateful.

Speaker 8 (34:11):
You see that in the protests that were daily after
the October seventh massacre. Now our children are watching and
they're not only seeing the hate, they're seeing the disrespect.
Respect has always been something that's been number one, key,
number one most important issue for me as a parent
and teaching my children since they were born, from the
time that they were talking to be respectful of one another,

(34:32):
to be respectful of their parents, respectful to me as
their mother, respectful to your teachers, respectful to authority.

Speaker 9 (34:38):
As they got older, I brought branched that out.

Speaker 8 (34:41):
On New Year's Eve when I lived in New York City,
we would go down to the streets and we would
go and thank all the police officers for their service.
Respectful of law enforcement, respect of history, respect.

Speaker 9 (34:51):
Your history and those who came before us.

Speaker 8 (34:54):
Those are the values and morals that American families are
lacking these days. And so a monumental mistake, essentially, is
that we're making a monumental mistake by not teaching our
children these valuable lessons. In the book, it actually talks about.
It makes reference to the monuments that are being torn
down in this country, perhaps because maybe they stand for

(35:16):
something that isn't necessarily a positive thing, the monuments that
were taken down under the Biden administration because.

Speaker 9 (35:22):
They want to appease the woke. So it really just
comes down to.

Speaker 8 (35:27):
Old traditional, old school values. It shouldn't be old fashioned
to say yes, ma'am and no sir. It shouldn't be
old fashioned to be respectful, to say please and thank
you and if you do disrespect somebody to apologize sincerely
for it. We don't see that anymore. And if we
don't teach that to our children, now, what's going to
happen to our next generation? Look what's happening right now
with college students. Where do you think their parents went wrong?

(35:49):
They went wrong.

Speaker 9 (35:49):
Those college students would not be preaching hate and.

Speaker 8 (35:53):
Death to Jews if it weren't for something that was
missing in their childhood. And the number one thing that
parents are missing are teaching them children respect. So I
think we need to try to save our future generation,
and I think it starts with respect.

Speaker 1 (36:10):
We would get along so well that into my boys,
not physically beating it, but I have beaten that into.

Speaker 2 (36:17):
My kids, and they get it now.

Speaker 1 (36:18):
They finally understand what that respect brings.

Speaker 2 (36:21):
You.

Speaker 1 (36:21):
Julie, thank you. I appreciate you very much. All Right,
we're not done yet. Talk about China. Before we talk
about China, let's talk about beam. Let's talk about sleeping. Well, Oh,
I even slept in a little bit today. It was
like eight am before I got up, and I woke

(36:43):
up feeling good like I do every single day. And
I woke up feeling good because I had a little
cup of hot chocolate.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Before bed last night. With dream power. It's got natural
things in it.

Speaker 1 (36:55):
Don't take things to sleep that aren't natural. The reason
you wake up still grown is because you put chemicals
in your body. Try dreampowder. You'll drift off to sleep
and sleep like a baby, and you'll wake up feeling good.
That's what's really important, right, It's the waking, not the sleeping.
Shopbeam dot com slash Jesse Kelly, we'll be back, all right.

(37:25):
There are things happening global, things happening. Trump is overseas today.
Just signed a big six hundred billion dollar deal with
Saudi Arabia, which is fine because that's like pocket change
for those daggun people.

Speaker 2 (37:36):
Anyway, it's a good thing.

Speaker 1 (37:38):
And we have I don't want to call it a
trade deal with China. We have a ninety day pause
on hostilities with China.

Speaker 2 (37:45):
But let's ask Steven.

Speaker 1 (37:46):
Moser about this, because he knows a lot more about
all this stuff than I ever will joining me now,
Stephen Moser, president of the Population Research Institute.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
Okay, Stephen, we.

Speaker 1 (37:57):
Got a ninety day pause on tariff with China, and
they're going to pause on their tariffs with US, but
Trump even said the larger structural issues still remain in place.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
What's going on?

Speaker 16 (38:09):
Well, what's going on is first of all, before the
delegation Scott, Bissan and and Greer left for Switzerland, Trump
said that, you know, the teriff freight should be around
eighty percent, but it's up to Bissan. So the Chinese
were already worried that they were going to get hit
with permanent eighty percent tariffs, and so they agreed to

(38:30):
our demands. What were our demands? Well, well, first of all,
you know, the Trump tariffs reminded China who's in charge. Right,
Many nations reached out immediately. China delayed, remaining defiant for
two weeks while factories shut down and urban unemployment sky rockton,
but they finally they finally came around. Look, thousands of
Chinese businesses have shedtered and failed every day over the

(38:52):
last two weeks. This last week I checked Shun John
and Judge Jenglo's two big export centers. Eighteen hundred factories
closed down just in the last week alone. The official
Purchasing Manager's index is falling sharply. And if the official
one is falling, you know that the real numbers must
be really, really bad. Now here's what China did going

(39:12):
into the negotiations. They have now said, well, we were
always willing to talk to America about the trade imbalance,
but the Biden administration had no interest in holding talks.
Well maybe they didn't because the big guy was in
China's pay, you know. And Biden had no interest in
enforcing the first Trump deal, which was back in January

(39:33):
twenty twenty. That was a pretty good deal. This one's
going to be even better. They have a ninety day
pause in which to think very clearly about two things. Once.
One is stopping the fentanyl trade. And I think people
should be angry about the fentanyl trade, very angry.

Speaker 1 (39:52):
Okay, let's talk about that fentanyl trade, Steven in China's Look,
China's the one response in the end, right.

Speaker 16 (40:02):
Oh, absolutely, And we've known that for years. Uh, China,
the Chinese Communist Party knows exactly where the factories are
that are producing the fentanyl and the fentanyl precursors. Then
working with the Mexican cartels because they're laundering the money
through Chinese banks. That's how the money gets back into
the real economy and out of the black economy. They
know where the labs are in British Columbia, the biggest

(40:23):
labs in British Columbia, by the way, not in Mexico.
They know where the labs are in northern Mexico, and
they could stop. They could have stopped five years ago
the fentanyl trade. Instead, they preferred to kill eighty thousand
Americans a year in a kind of, uh, you know,
chemical weapons attack on the United States. And the thing
that makes me furious is even before Scott Descent went

(40:46):
to Switzerland, the Chinese said, you know, if you lower
the tariffs, will stop the fentanyl trade. Well that's a
Taskit admission that they could have stopped it at any
point in time, but they preferred to let it continue
to kill Americans and make billions of dollars in profits.
And I think every American should be angry at the
fact that China not only released COVID on the world,

(41:08):
which is a biological weapons attack, it also has been
releasing fentanyl in the United States, which is chemical weapons attack.
So I think that's at the top of Trump's list here,
and we're going to see in the next ninety days
if China shuts down those fentanel factories. And better yet,
if they cooperate and tell us where the cartels are,
where the labs are, so we can take them out
and shut them down permanently, that would be a big deal.

(41:30):
I mean, you can talk about the billions of dollars
in the trade deficit, but to my mind, the lives
of eighty thousand Americans our top priority. Let's save those
lives first.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
Yeah, no doubt about it. Stephen.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
Can you explain to me why it's a big deal
that a bunch of factories closed in China. Now, if
you said that happened in Baton Rouge, I would say
it's a big deal. But when I think about China,
I think about this one party control dictatorship. What a
I worried about If some Chinese peasants are out of work?

Speaker 2 (41:59):
What does it matter?

Speaker 16 (42:01):
Well, it matters because they're going to be millions of
Chinese peasants out of work. And the thing is, Jesse,
they're no longer peasants. You see, their grandparents were peasants
when they came to the cities in the nineteen eighties
and worked in the factories, and then they would go
home during the holidays, and they also had soft rice

(42:21):
paddy to land on if they were unemployed. Their parents
came to work in the cities and then sent these
kids back to the villages to be taken care of
by their grandparents. Twenty years ago. That's all gone now
the villages have emptied out. There's millions of unemployed workers
have no soft rice paddy to land on. They have
no home villages to go back to in many cases,
and there are millions of them, ten million already right now,

(42:45):
heading to twenty million. Probably if the tariffs had stayed
in place, it would be thirty or forty million unemployed,
and not just unemployed throughout the length and breath of China,
unemployed in all of the coastal cities that specialize in
export to the United States. That would be a huge
concentration of unemployed and hungry people who were angry at

(43:06):
the Chinese Communist Party for failing to manage relations with
the United States better. And people need to understand that
we control the world economy and the Chinese economy. In
this sense, the Chinese economy only had one leg to
stand on. The property sector is gone. The banks are shuddering,
they're going bankrupt. The big property you know, investors have

(43:30):
already gone bankrupt like evergrat The people are diminishing a number,
they're getting older and dying. China's population is actually shrinking.
The consumer economy is shrinking. Chiji Pink made the mistake.
The dictator of China made the mistake, I think a
few weeks ago of telling the Chinese people that they
better be prepared to eat bitterness. What does eat bitterness

(43:52):
mean in Chinese? Well, it reminds the Chinese people of
the Great Lead Forward Famine in the early nineteen sixties,
when people were eating bitterness. They were eating grasses, grass
seeds and tree bark to try to stay alive, and
fifty million didn't. They died. There's already talk of rationing
food in China right now. So massive unrest, I think

(44:13):
on a scale that puts the ten un Men demonstrations
back in nineteen eighty nine make symbol of minuscule in comparison.
We had millions of people in the streets of Beijing,
but we will have millions of people in the streets
of not just Beijing this time, but in Shanghai, in Guangcho,
in all of the other cities. Along the Chinese coast,
and I think the Chinese Communist Party is going to

(44:34):
have a handful in dealing with the unrest that will
come if the tariffs, the high tariffs stayed in place.
So they have ninety days to think about what they're
going to do. And I think what they're going to
do is they're going to stop the fedanel trade and
they're going to try to make nice for a while. Now.
I don't trust the Chinese Communist Party. They violated every
agreement they've ever signed. I mean the nuclear non Proliferation

(44:57):
Agreement violated. They sent nukes to Pakistan, which is why
we have a nuclear power confrontation, you know, in between
India and Pakistan today. Everything they promised to do from
the promise of Shijiping and the Rose Garden back in
twenty sixteen, where he promised Obama that he would stop
the cyber attacks. Of course the cyber attacks continued that

(45:18):
they intensified. So all of these things that the Chinese
government says, you can't take it face value. We have
to look at what they do, and we will have
a three month period to look at what they do. Now.

Speaker 1 (45:33):
Well, fingers clossed, Thank you, Steve, and I appreciate you, sir.
All right, light the mood next, it is time to
lighten the mood.

Speaker 2 (45:53):
And you know what I love music? I do.

Speaker 1 (45:56):
I have always loved music and Stevie Wonders music.

Speaker 2 (46:00):
You don't matter.

Speaker 1 (46:00):
I like Stevie Wonder's music. I've always liked Stevie Wonder's music,
superstitious every time it comes on, a jam to it.
And so today is Stevie Wonder's birthday, and we wanted
to give him a little shout out with this video.

Speaker 6 (46:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 17 (46:27):
I can't even remark about what just happened. Yeah, I
can't even remark about what just happened.

Speaker 9 (46:47):
Does anybody realize that this is Stevie one year?

Speaker 2 (46:55):
Happy birthday, Stevie. See them all
