On today's show, Glenn Beck is joined by the founder of the Wright Brothers Conservative Political Activist Group, Damani Felder, to talk about the Black Lives Matter protests in Dallas, Texas, and how we have to stand up to them.
00:04:41.240It was actually a dinner being held in my honor with some friends of mine because I'm preparing to move to Houston to start a new role.
00:04:48.000And what we had was a live band, a live jazz band out there.
00:04:51.800It was a black entertainer who was performing.
00:04:54.900There were people of all races and all ages out there at this restaurant in downtown Dallas.
00:04:59.520And what was crazy was, initially, I didn't even hear the chants of the protesters as they were assembling and marching past us.
00:05:08.820I only saw the signs, so I saw them march past, and I said, okay, they're going to march past.
00:05:13.320Everybody else at the restaurant, too, they just said, okay, they're doing their thing.
00:05:17.080Exercising their First Amendment right, that's fine.
00:05:19.040We're going to continue to do our thing and enjoy our evening.
00:05:21.820And so, then a few minutes later, the same group walked past us again.
00:05:26.240And what was interesting was, even then, no one tried to verbally assault or abuse them.
00:05:32.260They let them do their thing, and we just continued on as normal with our evening.
00:05:36.520But then that same group parked themselves about 50 yards away from the restaurant, and really what the goal was was to attract attention.
00:05:43.040And when they didn't get the attention they wanted, that is when they came up to the restaurant where we all were enjoying ourselves and decided to continue to shout until they were able to provoke someone standing up for themselves.
00:05:55.500As you saw in the video, there were young black children who were literally feet away from this group of predominantly white BLM rioters or protesters.
00:06:05.180And these people are using the coarsest, harshest language available.
00:06:08.960And they say they're calling for justice and racial unity, when the crazy thing is, what we have there already at the restaurant was the epitome of everything they claim to desire.
00:06:30.700So, I think what happened was there was one man, and he was there with his children, and he was just asking the people, he was like, can we please just eat our dinner and eat, or whatever.
00:06:40.700And then that was when they took that as some sort of personal affront.
00:06:44.740So, then one of the ringleaders of the group marched up to him, stood up on the fountain, which acted as somewhat of a dividing line between the restaurant and the rest of the plaza, and began to scream and hurl propanities at him as well.
00:06:57.020And then other white people rushed over and were shouting at him.
00:07:00.040And in the video I took, you'll see there's black people who are just kind of sitting there looking like, why are y'all doing this?
00:07:07.680And so, basically, what BLM thrives on, what that movement thrives on, is the illusion of oppression.
00:07:14.700So, anytime anyone actually stands up for themselves and says, hey, can you just go do your thing?
00:07:19.900I'm not going to tell you to stop doing it, but please do it somewhere else where you're not going to disturb the peace.
00:07:24.100They take that as some sort of wanton callousness, and then they react as they deem to be appropriate, which in this case was essentially setting the entire establishment down,
00:07:35.260just because they felt like they weren't being heard loudly enough, or they weren't being coddled by the people at the restaurant.
00:07:42.500So, it was just one of those things that escalated needlessly.
00:07:45.060And when I saw it developing, my first thought was, I need to show people what really is going on, what really is behind this movement.
00:07:51.680That's why in the video I mentioned it is cultural Marxism.
00:07:55.020Because someone has to stand up and report the news, because the news media cameras weren't out there.
00:08:00.100No one else was out there reporting that, and there was no media coverage in the days that followed from any of the main channels, if you will.
00:08:07.280So, I took it upon myself to become a citizen journalist at that time, because for me, it's of paramount importance.
00:08:16.320It is manufactured outrage, manufactured chaos, and it's completely antithetical to what we all should strive for as Americans.
00:08:23.460So, what's amazing to me is the point that you were making on the video, and you've made here, is these were mainly white kids.
00:08:35.680And they are lecturing you and others on what you should be outraged by, and what you should think.
00:08:43.120And I don't understand this movement that is bought and paid for by a bunch of very, very wealthy white people, George Soros being one of them, former terrorists.
00:08:59.820I could say former because they haven't done anything lately, but former white terrorists and gay rights activists.
00:09:13.460And I hate to even say gay rights activists, because they're really not.
00:09:16.200They're there are extremists that are trying to destroy the family.
00:09:23.320And how is it that so many people are being duped by it?
00:09:26.760Well, what I think it is, really, is there's a lot of young people out there, or young adults, if you will, who desire to feel like they are a part of something special.
00:09:38.700That's the concept of virtue signaling.
00:09:40.980So, a lot of those young white people who are out there creating chaos on an otherwise peaceful evening, for them, they were doing that because they wanted to feel as if they belonged to this organization.
00:09:51.120And we know the organization has come out publicly and stated that they're against notions like what they call the Western concept of a nuclear family.
00:10:00.540And we know, I know for a fact, in the African-American community, one of the biggest problems we have is fatherlessness.
00:10:06.020So, the crazy thing is the stated goal of Black Lives Matter contradict what any African-American and what any American really should be striving for.
00:10:15.140It has been hijacked by a lot of people who claim to stand for social justice, but who evidently have no problem ruining an evening, creating chaos in the face of young children using profanity.
00:10:28.020The movement has spun out of control at this point, and all they really are doing right now is being political opportunists, utilizing any perceived instance of tragedy, in this case, the George Floyd situation, and co-opting that in order to justify their violent, unruly actions.
00:10:47.060So, I saw a poll yesterday, six in ten Americans overall believe that the founders were good and America is good.
00:11:01.140But when you go beyond the, when you start looking in, youth and African-American youth, you're looking at the reverse.
00:11:11.300You're looking at a maximum of four out of ten think that America is good and the founders were good.
00:11:22.160Honestly, it's incumbent upon, especially young people now, to do their own research and really understand history as it stands.
00:11:31.740Unfortunately, our public education system is largely controlled by the left.
00:11:37.560So, the left disseminates what news or what information or what history anyone is privy to.
00:11:42.880But the thing is, especially for young people, we have no excuses at this point.
00:11:47.160We have so much access to information.
00:11:49.680But what separates some from others is who is willing to actually dig to find the information that the left honestly would rather young Americans not be privy to.
00:12:00.220And, yes, we can acknowledge the sordid history of the past as it stands with race relations.
00:12:06.040But we also have to acknowledge the incredible accomplishments we've had even in the last 60 years.
00:12:10.680We've gone from ruby bridges being exported by the National Guard into school to being removed already from the first half-black president, at least.
00:12:20.400So, we can't sit here and act like the country is the most incorrigible, irredeemable country when we have made demonstrable strides to improve.
00:12:30.340But the problem with the left, too, is that what they want to do is they want to continue to perpetuate this notion that there's some sort of disadvantage by default.
00:12:38.500So, essentially, it's a handicap, a racial handicap.
00:12:41.800And they weaponize the illusion of this handicap.
00:12:44.840And then they tell people what to think, and then people don't question it.
00:12:48.160So, really, what's most important for us to do is just to continue to do our own research and speak the truth.
00:12:54.200Because there's a lot of misinformation or a lie by omission that's being perpetrated on the American people right now by the mainstream media and by the public education system.
00:13:03.040So, we have to combat both simultaneously.
00:13:05.860There is a civil war going on in America.
00:13:12.840And their stated goal is the destruction of America.
00:13:16.380And I truly believe that if a Martin Luther King stood up today, he might face the same kind of consequences that Martin Luther King did.
00:13:26.200But he would save America, that if the black leadership that doesn't really seem to exist right now, except in the Al Sharptons, who aren't leading anybody in the black community.
00:13:41.780But if there was a group of men and women that stood up and had the principles of Martin Luther King, they would save the nation.
00:13:54.800Do you think that there is that group that we're going to find?
00:14:00.740You know, I'm very encouraged by what I have seen even on social media.
00:14:05.440The response to the video that I took at that restaurant was overwhelming.
00:14:09.240And there are a lot of other people that I've been blessed to meet, people like Brandon Tatum.
00:14:31.280We need positive leadership in our communities.
00:14:33.280Because for too long now, be it Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson and many others, they've used fear and oppression, if you will, to control the ideals of an entire demographic.
00:14:46.820And I'm seeing more and more people who are African-American, like myself, who are willing to stand up, speak out, repudiate the lies when they surface, and tell people there's another way to go about this.
00:14:59.440There was so much positive change that happened as a result of Martin Luther King Jr.'s nonviolent stance.
00:15:05.440And I would argue that more good happened because of his nonviolent stance than anything that BLM or any of these other groups have ever tried to bring to pass.
00:15:43.880Anyone who wants to support can go to my YouTube channel, which is called The Wright Brothers, or they can find me on Twitter at Didamani Felder, Parler at Didamani Felder, Facebook at Didamani Felder, and Instagram at Didamani Felder as well.
00:15:55.720But I appreciate the time, and God bless you and everyone out there.
00:16:37.200And there is a great way to change the way you shave and give the closest, best, smoothest shave without all of the razor burn and the nicks and the bumps and the redneck ingrown hairs.
00:16:51.980If you have problems with any of those, for male or female, Shave Secret is the secret.
00:16:58.720You're not going to believe what a great shave you get from it and how great it smells.
00:23:11.860I mean, the basic three easy steps to destroy the country, it really is based on the notion that in order for you to have a country, in order for you to have a functional nation, you have to have a common, what I call a unionist philosophy of unionist culture and unionist history.
00:23:26.920What that means is shared philosophy, culture, and history, and when it comes to philosophy, that means the philosophy of the Declaration of Independence, this idea that there are such a thing as natural rights, and that those natural rights exist, pre-exist government, and are given to us by nature or nature as God, the idea that we all have those equal rights before the law, and the idea that government is instituted in order to protect those rights.
00:23:47.700That was the common philosophy of the United States.
00:23:50.080The common culture of the United States was a culture of entrepreneurialism and adventure, a spirit of adventure that we all should have been cultivating.
00:23:57.540It's the idea that we have to have a tolerance for other people's rights, even if we don't like how they exercise the rights, we understand that they do have rights, and we have to have a certain militant in defense of those rights.
00:24:06.580And we also have to have an understanding that our social institutions exist in order to cultivate virtue so that we can have a virtuous people with rights so that the rights aren't too often abused.
00:24:15.620And then finally, we have to have a shared history, meaning we have to understand that the history of the United States has warts and flaws, and is insanely glorious.
00:24:24.580The history of the United States is about the foundations of the United States, the principles of the United States being more perfectly realized over time.
00:24:34.040It doesn't mean there aren't horrible, evil sections of American history in which enormous human suffering takes place.
00:24:39.020But it does mean that the vision of the United States is one of a unified country, undershared principle, and the history of the United States is the fulfillment of those principles.
00:24:47.600The disintegrationist side, what I call disintegrationist, because I don't think this is quite purely right-left.
00:24:51.540I think there are a lot of folks who consider themselves liberal, who believe a lot of the things I just said, and maybe some people on the right who don't believe a few of the things that I just said.
00:24:59.620Because of that, I call it disintegrationist.
00:25:01.440The disintegrationists wish to sort of dissolve all of those bonds by suggesting that American philosophy is at root just evil, that it's just a pasteboard.
00:25:10.180It's sort of a mask for the true underlying power dynamics of the United States, that American culture should not be built around entrepreneurialism and a sense of virtue inculcated by social institutions, but through top-down government and cultural mandates decided by our cultural betters, that a spirit of tolerance for other people's rights is actually a tolerance for evil, and that you shouldn't tolerate other people's rights.
00:25:31.660Really, everybody should just be virtuous in the way that you say they should be virtuous.
00:25:34.520And then when it comes to American history, obviously, you see with the 1619 Project and all of its sort of ideological forebears and offshoots, you see this attempt to destroy American history and treat it as though American history is the unalloyed study of an evil country rooted in an evil institution, rooted in racism and sexism and bigotry and homophobia, and that American history divides us rather than uniting us.
00:25:56.300And the goal there is to just level the entire system.
00:25:58.300If you can level the entire system, then you can build a new system in its wake, supposedly.
00:26:01.480So we are sitting here 56 days since George Floyd was killed.
00:26:52.040I mean, the attempt to take down not just the statues of Confederates, obviously, which is controversial, but at least understandable.
00:26:57.980Moving immediately into conversations about taking down the statues of Ulysses S. Grant, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Christopher Columbus is an astonishingly fast move.
00:27:06.500The attempt to shift away from rational, moral conversations about how we extirpate racism in our society.
00:27:12.960I mean, true racism, the normal belief.
00:27:15.220We actually have to define the term now because people have been misusing the term.
00:27:18.080The term racism means we believe in the innate superiority or inferiority of somebody based on their race.
00:27:23.340That definition has been manipulated and changed by the disintegrationists into something completely different.
00:27:29.340Now, the argument made by people like Ibram Kendi and Robin DiAngelo in their bestselling books on anti-racism is that racism just means the system, that any system that has an unequal outcome by race means that the system itself is racist.
00:27:41.820So if you stand for the system, you're now perpetuating racism.
00:27:44.580So if the right to free speech ends with two racial groups in a different situation, well, that means the right to free speech is itself a racist system that must be torn down.
00:27:52.600Now, of course, the great lie there is that there is any system that levels human beings to the to the type where everybody ends up in an equal situation after the system is applied.
00:28:00.920I mean, even under communism, some pigs are more equal than others.
00:28:03.440But the but the lie there is very seductive and the lie is very powerful.
00:28:08.840And so it's now become the argument is now become that in order to be an anti-racist, and you see all the anti-racist training, which is now being put forth by major corporations, being put forth by the media, being put forth in the halls of governmental power.
00:28:19.700I mean, there are members of the federal government trained in this bullcrap.
00:28:21.680But the basic idea is if you don't oppose the American system, you are not, in fact, anti-racist.
00:28:26.800And that means the destruction of the American system.
00:28:29.180When when, you know, folks on the political left, the hard political left suggested that they're going to transform America, they didn't just mean that they were going to change some of the tax rates.
00:28:37.260They meant that they were going to fundamentally change how Americans thought about America.
00:28:40.580And they've been wildly successful in doing so.
00:28:42.420There was a Fox News poll that came out yesterday, and it showed that 31 percent of young Americans believe that the founders were villains.
00:28:50.120Thirty one percent, only 39 percent of young Americans under the age of 25 believe that the founders were heroes.
00:28:55.420So 61 percent couldn't actually just label the founders heroes.
00:28:58.100And there's also polarizations by race that have been exacerbated by the entire way that history is taught and the way that we've addressed America's problems in the past.
00:29:07.420That same poll showed that a plurality of black Americans thought the founders were villains.
00:29:10.640I think it was 39 to 31 thought they were villains rather than heroes, which, again, you can understand the evils of American history when it comes to race.
00:29:17.140But if you haven't taught Americans the words of Frederick Douglass, if you haven't taught Americans the words of Booker T. Washington or the words of Martin Luther King, the story of America, the fulfillment of the promissory note, the story of America, the declaration, not John C. Calhoun's view of the declaration of independence, then you've done it wrong.
00:29:33.060So, Ben, I've talked to so many people recently that have have come to this place to where they just feel that I think they're in mourning almost.
00:29:48.560It's it's it's if there is no chance of winning and turning the corner.
00:29:54.700How how big is this battle that we're in right now?
00:29:59.500And what are the odds and how do we turn it?
00:30:04.740I mean, it feels almost like the final ideological battle of the United States, because what we've really come down to is a belief that the United States is something worth fighting for and upholding.
00:30:13.180And I believe the United States is merely a vestige of evil institutions that ought to be torn down.
00:30:17.660And we had some of this battle in the 1960s.
00:30:19.540And I will remind people who are feeling despondent that it felt like in the 1960s, the battle was completely lost.
00:30:25.380And then, of course, the Reagan era came out and restored a lot of that feeling.
00:30:28.600So other countries have experienced something similar.
00:30:30.980Israel, for example, experienced a post-Zionist era in the aftermath of the Oslo Accords that spanned for about 15 to 20 years.
00:30:37.500And then it turns out that their enemies didn't go away.
00:30:39.440And now the entire Israeli population is center right.
00:30:42.040So one of the one of the terrible facts about humanity is that America's enemies don't go away, no matter how much naval gazing we do.
00:30:49.280So, you know, while it is true that the United States could theoretically really rip itself apart over a lot of these issues, eventually our enemies will show up at the gates.
00:30:58.640And when there's an enemy at the gates, it tends to it tends to unify Americans in a way that that ideological discussions do not.
00:31:03.940I mean, I think a lot of historians have pointed out quite correctly that a lot of the fragmentation in American politics took place in the immediate aftermath of the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
00:31:11.320And then we came back together a little bit around 9-11 when there was a feeling that there was a common enemy seeking to destroy American values.
00:31:18.680And now, because it doesn't feel like there's an existential threat to the United States, we're kind of turning in again.
00:31:23.840But I think it's pretty clear that there are some fairly large existential threats on the horizon.
00:31:27.320Now, the bad news is that if it takes an existential threat on the horizon to unite Americans around the greatest set of principles severed by man, then we're doing something deeply wrong.
00:31:34.540So I guess the reality is that history sort of pushes you back into a more patriotic situation, no matter how hard you wish to run away from and declare yourself a world citizen.
00:31:46.040Yeah, and that's not really a victory for America itself.
00:31:52.920I mean, because the – I mean, I've – you know, when I first heard Donald Trump start talking about the deep state, it bothered me.
00:32:00.500I was like, stop with the deep state stuff.
00:32:04.720There are people deeply embedded in our government that I think hate our system and are trying to overthrow and trying to have their own way.
00:32:15.660If we don't get to the root of this problem, which is education, which is honestly people like George Soros that are funding all of this, this is a show we're watching, Ben.
00:32:32.700No, and I think this is one of the areas where Republicans really have missed the boat.
00:32:37.320The left has been fighting a culture war.
00:32:39.440And again, I hesitate to make this a left-right divide because I think that there are some old-fashioned liberals who just disagree with me on tax rates and the role of government,
00:32:48.760but still agree with fundamental American rights as expressed in the Declaration of Independence.
00:32:52.380I think you saw some of them send at Harper's weekly letter, ripping cancel culture.
00:32:55.900But it is true that the assault on America's values that came predominantly from the left in the 1960s took place on a cultural level.
00:33:04.320And the cultural revolution always precedes the governmental revolution.
00:33:07.240So the cultural revolution that took place in the 1960s, the right never fought back on those grounds.
00:33:15.160The fact is that we seeded the field of battle.
00:33:16.980I mean, you know this better than anyone, Glenn, is trying to get conservatives to understand that things like Hollywood entertainment is actually kind of important,
00:33:23.260that the content that your kids consume may be more important than the politicians you elect.
00:33:27.580Getting conservatives to understand that is very often very difficult because conservatives tend to think,
00:33:31.620okay, well, you know, these kids will grow up, they'll go into the business world,
00:33:34.520and then they'll have to live a real life, they'll have to earn a buck,
00:33:37.060and they'll realize the tax rates are too high, and they'll kind of swivel toward a more conservative position.
00:33:42.260Well, what happens when all of those woke microaggression SJW types,
00:33:47.660what happens when all of them at college, they go into the workforce,
00:33:50.740and they don't get shaped by the workforce, they shape the workforce instead?
00:33:53.720And you're seeing that happen right now in corporations around America,
00:33:55.920where CEOs are now being told what to do by woke interns.
00:34:00.180I mean, it's insanity. You run a company, I run a company.
00:34:02.700This is, what we're watching right now is nuts.
00:34:04.900If my employees came to me and dictated a certain brand of politics that I was supposed to embrace that I disagreed with,
00:34:10.440they'd be on the bread lines the next day.
00:34:11.680But corporations, because they're so afraid of being sued, and they're so afraid of the bad press,
00:34:15.600have decided that it's much easier to simply give grease to the squeakiest wheel.
00:34:19.640So the right fought back politically when they should have fought back culturally.
00:34:22.620They fought back by electing Republicans,
00:34:24.400but electing Republicans while the culture shifts to the left is rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
00:34:30.180So the name of the book is How to Destroy America in Three Easy Steps.
00:34:36.760All, just a, I mean, don't be, it's a spoiler.
00:34:39.940All three steps have been done and are being done right now.
00:34:44.220But he provides the solution to those things.
00:34:47.700And what I really like about this is it is a, it's a way to unite us.
00:38:19.760Trader Joe has decided to remove the stereotype packaging of ethnic food.
00:38:28.980Apparently, the California-based grocery chain said it's working to phase out the stereotypical names.
00:38:35.460It is attached to foreign foods, such as Trader Jose's for Mexican cuisine, Trader Ming's for Chinese products, and Arabian Joe's for Middle Eastern dishes.
00:38:51.720While his approach to product naming may have been rooted in a lighthearted attempt at inclusiveness, who we recognize now, it's had the opposite effect.
00:43:33.620Kalen, tell me exactly what you've been doing.
00:43:38.760You've been up in Portland for the last two weekends, but you've also been up in Seattle, where I think you were assaulted in Seattle, were you not?
00:43:52.660And so, one of their, I don't know who he was, just a random goon who was there, decided he was going to attack me for recording, take my phone, give me an ultimatum, give me the phone, or I'm going to knock you out.
00:44:35.920So, their black block kind of, it works both ways.
00:44:39.280It works for me, and it works for them as far as not being identified.
00:44:43.440But they do actively try to suppress people that are recording the violent acts and the criminal acts that they're doing there.
00:44:54.340And so, most of what they're approved press, they have approved people that they like to have stream and post videos.
00:45:03.940Usually, it's just the people chanting or eating or doing random things.
00:45:09.760And then, they'll also post out-of-context police response to something that they're not reporting on.
00:45:18.120So, they definitely are trying to create a narrative that, you know, we're not doing anything.
00:45:22.940We're just out here, we're moms, or, you know, we're peacefully protesting, which may be true.
00:45:28.440There may be 80% of people who are peacefully protesting, and then the 20% are committing the violent acts that DHS and Portland Police Department have to respond to.
00:45:41.680So, for the most part, I'm out there undercover recording the things that they don't want people to see.
00:45:50.040And so, CNN is saying, this is just right-wing media playing up the Portland violence.
00:45:57.920I heard that from the Portland press as well.
00:46:01.940Then I went to Portland TV, and I saw something very, very different.
00:46:07.020What the hell is happening with the people of Portland?
00:46:15.740I think that there are both, I've talked to regular people as well, like a lot of my Uber drivers, I'll ask them kind of, what do they think?
00:46:26.420Because they're not part of this, they're not down protesting.
00:46:29.720And a lot of them don't agree with the violence, they don't agree with the rioting and looting that happened several weeks ago.
00:46:36.460But a lot of people sort of formulate their opinions, not based on their own investigations through independent journalism, like me and so many others are doing, but based on the media narratives that CNN or some of their local newspapers are putting out there.
00:46:55.760And a lot of people just feel that, well, Portland's had this long history of protesting, and, you know, government agencies are just snatching people off the streets, and it's completely uncalled for, and DHS is just absolutely everything.
00:47:16.280Do they actually believe that, the average person?
00:47:19.320Yes, yes, a lot of people are buying into this idea that federal law enforcement, which, by the way, Ted Wheeler, the mayor of Portland, asked for publicly to come in and help restore law and order publicly on Twitter.
00:47:37.280So, he's, you know, a weak leader, but he also asked for them to be there.
00:47:44.060But what's happening, as far as, while I was there specifically, their problem is not, they're not protesting, maybe 10% of the time they're protesting for black lives.
00:47:57.160The other 90% of the time, they're, you know, directly assaulting and attacking the federal building and police officers.
00:48:06.620They want to abolish it, and they're also protesting and trying to tear down the system and implement socialism.
00:48:14.580You hear that from people all the time on their bullhorns and their megaphones.
00:48:20.040And so, I don't know fully, you know, how many people in the city are for these ideas that they're trying to push here.
00:48:33.720But it's not what we're being told by mainstream media.
00:48:39.100They're really masking it and hiding it.
00:48:41.620So, we're talking to Kalen Dalmeida, and he is a journalist that has been up in Portland.
00:50:49.360But to say that, you know, there's that viral clip going around of, of two DHS agents, you know, taking somebody into a van that, you know, that happened.
00:51:02.760But who was the person that they were taking in?
00:51:07.760Did he do, what did he do for them to, to do that?
00:51:10.720Because they're not, they're not doing that.
00:51:14.060They're not just taking people in off the streets daily and a lot of these people are reporting like, oh, I had to hide from the unmarked band because they're snatching people.
00:52:18.200And I think that he is very weak and he doesn't really know what he's doing because he'll ask for them to come in and then he'll condemn them.
00:52:28.080And then he'll prevent Portland police bureau from working with DHS jointly to solve this issue.
00:52:35.600Um, so there, there's a lot of factors at play, but Ted Wheeler is, is it just sounds like he sucks.
00:53:14.140How much of this is about George Floyd?
00:53:17.860Was it ever about George Floyd in Portland?
00:53:20.240I think it may have been, I think that there are a lot of people, majority of people who don't really know what's going on, but they want to go out and protest.
00:53:28.860And I think that a lot of these, them believe that this is still, you know, we're coming up on 60 nights of this consecutively.
00:53:36.720And they think that that is still what it is about, but, uh, of the, of all the time I've spent there, there's only ever been one time where a black, a female black lives matter organizer with a bullhorn got all of the protesters to focus on, uh, you know, police brutality and the murdering of black people.
00:53:59.380In fact, they, they gathered one night in particular over a hoax.
00:54:04.840Um, there was a, a black male named Dominic or Dominic Dune who was murdered a couple of Fridays ago.
00:54:13.860And they said that it was by a white supremacist.
00:54:17.340And later we found out that it was actually another black man that killed, uh, this person.
00:54:22.480So they're out there protesting that white supremacists are killing black people, uh, you know,
00:54:28.580and police are killing black people, uh, and it's just not true.
00:54:33.920Uh, so the rest, the rest of the time, it's all about all cops are bastards.
00:54:41.180It's all about abolishing the police completely.
00:54:44.420Uh, they tell them to jump off the tops of these, uh, federal building roofs and quit their jobs.
01:39:18.300So not only are they changing our traditions, our culture, our history, they're also changing what is absolute fact and replacing that with fiction.
01:39:39.640I just realized, no, we're on the air still.
01:39:42.060But it's I really have this horrible feeling that for some people, the reason we're not going back to school is because we've got to destroy the intelligence of these kids.
01:40:04.840If you can destroy the entrepreneurial spirit, the intellectual desire and spirit, you can make people feel alone and helpless and under the thumb of somebody else.
01:40:20.440And having to comply because you're getting your bread and water from that government, you've destroyed America.
