00:00:00.000 Peter Brimler, thank you so much for doing this.
00:00:06.040 I thought of you last week when I read this.
00:00:08.440 I don't know how much you follow X,
00:00:10.720 but there were a couple exchanges that suggested to me
00:00:14.560 that things were changing very, very fast.
00:00:16.820 Okay, so here's one.
00:00:18.200 This is a tweet from last week, less than a week ago,
00:00:22.280 from basically an anonymous account, and I'm quoting. 0.99
00:00:26.020 If white men become a minority, we will be slaughtered. 0.99
00:00:28.880 Remember, if non-whites openly hate white men, 1.00
00:00:31.940 while white men hold a collective majority, 1.00
00:00:34.660 then they will be a thousand times more hostile and cruel 0.99
00:00:37.480 when they're a majority over whites. 0.95
00:00:39.740 White solidarity is the only way to survive. 0.99
00:00:42.300 Okay, that's on the internet.
00:00:44.080 Elon Musk retweets it and says, 100%.
00:00:47.620 And then Elon Musk writes this.
00:00:51.820 If current trends continue,
00:00:53.720 whites will go from being a small minority 0.96
00:00:55.440 of the world population today
00:00:56.980 to virtually extinct, exclamation point.
00:01:02.100 All of that, in my opinion, is obviously true.
00:01:06.280 And I think most people know it.
00:01:08.520 But I read that and I thought,
00:01:09.860 here's the world's richest man who owns this platform
00:01:12.100 and a lot of other things saying this.
00:01:14.840 And Peter Brimlow, who I know,
00:01:18.260 who's a thoroughly decent person,
00:01:19.780 has had his life turned upside down
00:01:21.440 and basically been destroyed in some ways,
00:01:23.220 professionally anyway,
00:01:24.680 for saying things that are way more restrained for that than that.
00:01:28.520 So I have to ask you what it feels like to see that.
00:01:31.920 It feels kind of tingly, on the one hand.
00:01:36.780 Tingly?
00:01:37.440 I'm happy that the debate has moved in that direction
00:01:41.340 and the things that we were talking about 25 years ago
00:01:44.400 on vdare.com, which was my website,
00:01:47.560 my birthright citizenship and so on,
00:01:49.760 are now in the public debate.
00:01:51.120 On the other hand, you know, we've been ruined
00:01:53.800 and we're facing personal ruin, of course,
00:01:56.160 because of this attack on us
00:01:57.580 by the New York Attorney General, Letitia James.
00:02:00.240 Sometimes, as nobody knows who I am, Tucker,
00:02:02.560 I should say that, you know, I'm a long-time,
00:02:04.460 it's part of my accent, I've been here for 55 years
00:02:06.820 and I'm a long-time financial journalist.
00:02:08.720 I work for Forbes and Fortune and Barons and so on
00:02:13.420 and I work for National Review.
00:02:15.300 I wrote for National Review a lot
00:02:16.480 and I wrote a piece on immigration in 1992
00:02:19.280 saying, time to rethink immigration.
00:02:21.480 That's sometimes credited with kicking off the modern debate.
00:02:26.900 And there was a brief civil war
00:02:28.060 within the conservative movement at that point,
00:02:29.720 which we lost and Buckley stabbed us in the back
00:02:32.700 and purged the magazine of immigration patriots.
00:02:35.580 And for the next while, you know,
00:02:38.060 the Wall Street Journal editorial page
00:02:39.400 was absolutely dominant
00:02:40.240 and they were going on about the need for amnesty
00:02:43.240 and there was no way to combat it.
00:02:46.360 So I set up a website,
00:02:47.740 which I called, I named vdare.com
00:02:49.420 after Virginia Dare,
00:02:50.580 the first English child,
00:02:52.980 not white child, as they always say,
00:02:54.900 born in the new world.
00:02:56.220 And over a period of about 25 years,
00:02:58.580 we built up into quite a force
00:02:59.860 until about two years ago,
00:03:01.700 it was destroyed by the New York Attorney General,
00:03:03.940 Tisha James,
00:03:04.640 who just basically subpoenaed us to death
00:03:07.100 and has in fact now sued us personally
00:03:10.920 and through the foundation.
00:03:15.660 So we're a bit like General Flynn, you know,
00:03:18.160 no middle-class family can stand up to this.
00:03:20.500 General Flynn had to sell his house
00:03:21.880 and we're going to face a bit driven
00:03:23.900 into personal bankruptcy, I guess.
00:03:26.960 It's a horrifying story.
00:03:29.620 I've kept abreast of it through your wife,
00:03:31.900 who texts me as a wonderful person.
00:03:34.500 And I know that you're a man
00:03:35.640 of great personal decency and restraint
00:03:38.580 and basically a great citizen
00:03:41.300 and the kind of immigrant we need 0.91
00:03:42.740 and I'm grateful to have.
00:03:44.740 So the whole thing is shocking and so revealing,
00:03:47.200 but I'd like if you don't mind to start closer
00:03:50.120 to the beginning of this story
00:03:51.920 with your experience at National Review.
00:03:55.180 1992, you said you wrote this piece
00:03:57.220 saying time to rethink immigration,
00:03:59.080 which I remember well.
00:04:00.640 At the time, National Review really was a forum
00:04:02.560 for conservatives to think through
00:04:05.160 what it meant to be conservative.
00:04:06.280 So that was a significant piece at the time.
00:04:10.720 And then you said Bill Buckley,
00:04:12.680 the then editor William F. Buckley Jr.,
00:04:14.340 stabbed you in the back.
00:04:16.320 Can you tell a story? 0.96
00:04:18.000 What happened exactly?
00:04:18.920 Oh, sure.
00:04:20.280 I was never on staff at National,
00:04:22.160 but I was what they called a senior editor
00:04:24.440 and I roll for it a lot.
00:04:25.740 And in 1992, I wrote this very long cover story.
00:04:28.300 It's about 14,000 words.
00:04:30.880 Bill had retired as the editor then.
00:04:33.340 He was just circling around in the background.
00:04:36.320 But the then editor, John O'Solven,
00:04:38.760 went with this story.
00:04:40.020 And for about five years,
00:04:41.640 we basically directly challenged
00:04:43.080 the official conservative line,
00:04:46.640 which was that immigration is good,
00:04:47.980 more immigration is better,
00:04:49.580 illegal immigration is very good.
00:04:51.400 That's what the Wall Street Journal said
00:04:53.360 and still saying as far as I can tell.
00:04:55.960 Yes.
00:04:56.120 And then at the end of five years in 97,
00:05:00.680 Bill just abruptly,
00:05:02.120 without any warning at all,
00:05:03.120 fired O'Solven
00:05:03.960 and purged the magazine
00:05:05.660 of immigration patriots
00:05:08.120 and basically told us to shut up, 0.95
00:05:09.720 told them all to shut up about immigration, 1.00
00:05:11.700 which of course they all eagerly did.
00:05:13.120 He put the Washington Bureau in charge,
00:05:14.920 Rich Lowry and Penuru and so on.
00:05:18.160 And so for them,
00:05:19.040 for two or three years,
00:05:20.300 you couldn't get even the basic facts
00:05:22.400 about immigration out to the public.
00:05:25.240 But then the internet came along
00:05:26.480 and rescued us
00:05:29.980 and I started VDARE.com.
00:05:31.840 May I ask you to pause
00:05:32.600 and explain why that happened?
00:05:34.620 Why do you think Bill Buckley,
00:05:35.920 who was retired
00:05:36.680 and letting John O'Solven run it,
00:05:39.280 another Brit, I think.
00:05:40.860 Yes, indeed.
00:05:41.840 Who now lives in Budapest.
00:05:44.920 Why do you think that he stepped
00:05:47.220 back in from retirement
00:05:49.560 to shut down that conversation specifically?
00:05:52.800 Well, of course,
00:05:53.400 I've had 20-odd years to think about that
00:05:55.500 and the answer is,
00:05:56.500 over the time my answer's evolved.
00:05:58.560 At the time,
00:05:59.800 I thought he was just jealous.
00:06:01.740 This is actually a thing you see.
00:06:02.820 I was a financial journalist for a long time.
00:06:04.540 It's a thing you see often
00:06:05.460 in the corporate world.
00:06:07.980 Entrepreneurs will come back
00:06:09.120 and purge the fire,
00:06:11.980 the managers that they put in
00:06:13.020 to replace themselves.
00:06:13.860 Yes, exactly.
00:06:14.200 Out of sheer jealousy.
00:06:15.520 I think the Congressional Republicans
00:06:17.060 hated us talking about immigration
00:06:18.760 because it upsets the donors.
00:06:21.140 And I think that was influential with Bill.
00:06:23.580 He liked being lionized
00:06:25.160 by the then Republican majority in the House.
00:06:30.780 And I think...
00:06:31.400 So the Republican leadership didn't like it,
00:06:33.920 Newt Gingrich, etc.,
00:06:35.520 who was ascendant,
00:06:37.640 came in in 94,
00:06:38.820 to much, much fanfare,
00:06:40.180 achieved not a lot.
00:06:41.740 But they're the ones
00:06:44.260 who pressured Bill Buckley,
00:06:45.440 you believe.
00:06:46.060 I think that was true.
00:06:47.540 But I also think that
00:06:48.720 the neocons in New York hated it,
00:06:52.320 hated the line.
00:06:53.320 And Bill was very, very leery
00:06:56.680 of offending the neoconservatives,
00:06:58.280 people like Norman Port Horace and so on.
00:07:01.000 And I think they pressured him to...
00:07:03.280 I mean, I know they pressured him
00:07:04.640 to get rid of John.
00:07:05.760 Now, why would they care?
00:07:09.040 Oh, because at that point,
00:07:12.680 the neoconservatives,
00:07:13.660 who were predominantly Jewish faction,
00:07:15.460 they had this sort of
00:07:16.280 Ellis Island view of America.
00:07:19.420 They wanted to...
00:07:21.360 They're extremely frightened
00:07:23.180 of the white majority in America
00:07:25.740 becoming self-conscious
00:07:26.820 because they feel, as Jews,
00:07:28.600 that it will leave them out in the cold.
00:07:30.460 Despite the fact
00:07:33.920 there's never been any
00:07:35.020 real anti-Semitic movement
00:07:36.960 in the United States,
00:07:37.840 there's no evidence
00:07:38.700 that white people 0.52
00:07:40.640 becoming aware
00:07:41.700 of the fact that they're white 1.00
00:07:42.920 is a threat to Jews. 0.99
00:07:44.300 I don't know where that comes from. 0.88
00:07:45.840 Right.
00:07:47.900 And I actually think
00:07:49.900 there's a certain sort of jealousy there.
00:07:51.380 They didn't like...
00:07:52.800 I mean, if you look at ideas
00:07:53.860 on the right
00:07:54.740 in the recent years,
00:07:56.120 a lot of them originated
00:07:56.920 out of neoconservatism.
00:07:58.400 But here was a non-neoconservative faction.
00:08:00.200 We would have then described ourselves
00:08:01.980 as paleoconservatives
00:08:03.200 coming up with a whole idea
00:08:05.100 and a whole issue.
00:08:06.080 Because the immigration 1.00
00:08:06.680 was completely dormant
00:08:08.560 from 1968
00:08:10.440 when the Hartzell Act kicked in
00:08:12.120 until the early 90s.
00:08:13.900 There was no discussion of it at all.
00:08:15.420 I actually went through
00:08:16.040 National Review's archives
00:08:17.080 and I found that
00:08:17.640 they hadn't discussed immigration
00:08:18.660 at all between the passage
00:08:20.840 of the 65 Act
00:08:22.480 until the early 90s.
00:08:23.780 People simply didn't realise
00:08:24.720 what was going on.
00:08:25.820 Why?
00:08:27.800 I think there are
00:08:28.640 a couple of reasons.
00:08:29.400 One is that, you know,
00:08:31.080 there was a pause in immigration
00:08:33.540 from 1924
00:08:35.220 to about 1968.
00:08:37.360 So a whole generation grew up
00:08:39.160 when there was essentially
00:08:40.280 no immigration at all 1.00
00:08:41.320 into the US.
00:08:42.680 And, you know,
00:08:43.920 and so it just wasn't
00:08:45.480 an issue to them.
00:08:46.900 And, you know,
00:08:47.320 what happens with...
00:08:48.400 It's like an academic life.
00:08:50.140 We have an academic theory.
00:08:51.800 It's not that it conquered
00:08:53.080 the other theories
00:08:54.140 by being better
00:08:55.060 and better arguments.
00:08:56.440 It's just that the people
00:08:57.220 who hold the earlier theories
00:08:58.500 die off
00:08:59.180 and they're replaced
00:09:00.180 by younger...
00:09:01.100 And that's true
00:09:01.720 for politicians too.
00:09:02.800 That's true.
00:09:03.080 A whole generation 0.82
00:09:03.940 of politicians
00:09:04.780 had never thought
00:09:05.480 about this issue.
00:09:06.260 And I include Ronald Reagan
00:09:07.800 in that.
00:09:08.360 I mean,
00:09:08.780 it simply wasn't an issue
00:09:10.180 when he was growing up.
00:09:11.400 And that's why
00:09:11.940 he was haunt
00:09:12.520 swoggled by this...
00:09:13.860 The Urke amnesty 0.98
00:09:15.120 in 1986.
00:09:16.000 He actually genuinely
00:09:16.640 thought that
00:09:17.240 the ruling
00:09:19.320 of the government
00:09:20.320 would exchange amnesty
00:09:21.900 for serious enforcement.
00:09:24.080 Whereas, in fact,
00:09:24.660 he just took the amnesty
00:09:25.980 and didn't enforce the law
00:09:27.380 against illegal immigration
00:09:28.820 at all.
00:09:30.000 Christmas feels like
00:09:30.940 just yesterday.
00:09:31.980 But, in fact,
00:09:32.720 it's already time
00:09:33.580 to think about Lent.
00:09:35.160 Lent.
00:09:35.740 Lent is a great chance
00:09:36.980 to step back,
00:09:38.100 examine our lives,
00:09:39.840 and decide whether or not
00:09:41.000 we're headed somewhere
00:09:42.240 worth going.
00:09:43.580 This Lent,
00:09:44.260 we strongly recommend
00:09:45.200 the world's top
00:09:46.480 number one prayer app.
00:09:48.160 It's called Hallow.
00:09:49.720 Its Lent Prayer Challenge
00:09:51.100 starts February 18th.
00:09:52.780 It's called Pray 40,
00:09:54.100 The Return.
00:09:55.740 Transformation does not 1.00
00:09:56.820 start with improvement.
00:09:58.620 No.
00:09:59.420 Transformation starts 0.99
00:10:00.500 with repentance.
00:10:02.360 The courage to admit
00:10:03.420 that you are lost
00:10:04.520 and change direction.
00:10:06.500 Pray 40 forces you 0.99
00:10:07.540 to confront that.
00:10:08.960 Responsibility,
00:10:09.800 forgiveness,
00:10:10.220 and what it means
00:10:11.400 to truly repent
00:10:12.460 and live a life
00:10:13.540 of meaning
00:10:14.140 by following Jesus.
00:10:16.600 Every day,
00:10:17.380 enjoy simple,
00:10:18.700 deliberate prayer.
00:10:19.820 No spectacle,
00:10:20.580 no performance,
00:10:21.340 just silence,
00:10:22.600 honesty,
00:10:23.200 and one small step
00:10:24.600 toward renewal.
00:10:26.340 This is not about
00:10:26.860 fixing your life
00:10:27.780 overnight.
00:10:28.580 It's about
00:10:28.980 beginning the journey
00:10:30.640 home.
00:10:32.020 Pray 40,
00:10:32.540 The Return,
00:10:33.140 starts Wednesday,
00:10:34.060 February 18th
00:10:34.900 and runs right through
00:10:35.540 Easter.

00:10:39.460 America,
00:10:40.680 the best to ever do it.
00:10:42.060 We landed on the moon
00:10:43.460 and invented the microchip.
00:10:45.640 Now with China 0.99
00:10:46.360 outspending us
00:10:47.220 two to one
00:10:47.880 in the race for fusion,
00:10:49.080 we can't wait.
00:10:50.520 Our jobs,
00:10:51.420 our communities,
00:10:52.400 and our national security
00:10:53.840 depend on American energy.
00:10:55.880 And when we go all in,
00:10:57.380 we win.
00:10:58.560 It's what we do.
00:11:00.320 So tell President Trump
00:11:01.540 and Congress
00:11:02.100 to deliver a new era
00:11:03.500 of American greatness.
00:11:05.100 Fund Fusion.
00:11:06.240 Make America first again.
00:11:07.920 Paid for by
00:11:08.400 Built for America.
00:11:09.580 So the new year is here,
00:11:10.780 but that does not mean
00:11:11.720 you've got to overhaul
00:11:12.580 your whole life,
00:11:14.120 despite claims to the contrary.
00:11:15.280 You don't have to take
00:11:15.720 drastic measures.
00:11:17.040 Make a few changes
00:11:18.080 here and there
00:11:18.800 and you'll be a lot
00:11:20.040 better off.
00:11:20.640 And you can start
00:11:21.080 with the snacks
00:11:21.780 in your pantry.
00:11:23.640 Now products from
00:11:24.260 standard American chip brands
00:11:25.880 are, let's be honest,
00:11:27.220 pretty repulsive,
00:11:28.240 filled with chemicals
00:11:29.080 that make you feel
00:11:29.860 heavy and bloated.
00:11:31.180 They don't even taste
00:11:31.940 that good.
00:11:33.080 They're not good for you.
00:11:34.080 We recommend an upgrade
00:11:35.120 with masa chips.
00:11:36.760 Masa is the easiest way
00:11:37.740 to eat clean
00:11:38.260 without feeling like
00:11:39.040 you're on a diet.
00:11:40.420 The chips contain
00:11:41.180 three ingredients.
00:11:42.240 That's it.
00:11:42.620 Organic corn,
00:11:43.440 sea salt,
00:11:43.980 100% grass-fed beef towel,
00:11:45.980 and that is it.
00:11:47.260 No seed oils,
00:11:47.960 no mystery chemicals,
00:11:48.860 just food,
00:11:49.460 actual food.
00:11:50.780 And they're amazing
00:11:51.700 and you feel great after.
00:11:53.240 You don't feel weighed down.
00:11:55.480 We particularly enjoyed
00:11:56.400 the Kobanero flavor lately,
00:11:58.360 but they're all great.

00:12:24.900 Flash Tucker.
00:12:25.500 But I'm a little bit fixated
00:12:28.060 on William McBuckley
00:12:29.500 because he was
00:12:32.060 such a dominant force.
00:12:33.880 Let me just back up
00:12:34.560 a second.
00:12:34.920 Yeah.
00:12:35.420 What I think now is,
00:12:36.700 I think,
00:12:37.420 look at National Review now,
00:12:38.800 it's obviously donor-driven.
00:12:41.800 Oh, of course.
00:12:43.100 And we weren't aware
00:12:44.660 of that in the 90s.
00:12:45.960 I wasn't even aware,
00:12:47.380 I didn't think about
00:12:48.120 the donors' role in politics
00:12:49.480 really until some years
00:12:50.900 later than that.
00:12:52.060 We thought that people
00:12:52.940 just got up and argued
00:12:54.400 and you just simply
00:12:55.040 didn't realize how dominant
00:12:56.120 or how important
00:12:57.980 the donors are.
00:12:58.760 I think now,
00:12:59.320 looking back at it,
00:12:59.960 particularly given,
00:13:01.020 Bill was not as wealthy
00:13:02.680 as he wanted people to think
00:13:04.780 and he depended
00:13:05.900 on National Review
00:13:06.820 financially to a considerable extent.
00:13:09.140 It financed his lifestyle
00:13:10.040 to a considerable extent.
00:13:12.160 And I think-
00:13:12.700 But he depended
00:13:13.480 on the magazine?
00:13:14.360 Yeah, yeah.
00:13:15.240 I think that's right.
00:13:15.880 I think the rest of us
00:13:16.540 thought the magazine
00:13:17.140 depended on him.
00:13:18.100 Yeah.
00:13:19.140 That's what he wanted you to think.
00:13:20.640 But in fact,
00:13:21.180 it did finance his lifestyle
00:13:22.640 to a considerable extent.
00:13:23.660 The winters in Strad
00:13:26.420 and the sailing across
00:13:27.800 the Bermuda race and-
00:13:29.800 I don't know how much,
00:13:30.820 but there was certainly
00:13:31.840 quite a lot
00:13:32.460 that was deducted
00:13:33.720 or expense
00:13:34.640 to the magazine.
00:13:37.840 In any case,
00:13:38.820 he just didn't want
00:13:40.900 to disrupt the donor flow.
00:13:42.220 And the more I think about that,
00:13:43.380 the more I think
00:13:43.860 that probably was the reason.
00:13:46.000 Interesting.
00:13:46.600 So that's basically
00:13:48.180 a species of fraud.
00:13:50.220 I don't mean
00:13:54.180 against the tax code.
00:13:55.360 I mean,
00:13:55.700 it's intellectual fraud.
00:13:56.980 It's you're making the case
00:13:58.100 that you believe
00:13:59.220 these things
00:13:59.800 because they are true
00:14:00.760 when in fact,
00:14:02.220 you're taking money
00:14:03.140 to say them.
00:14:05.160 I think Bill actually,
00:14:07.280 my experience for Bill
00:14:08.660 is that he actually
00:14:09.140 was not very interested
00:14:09.780 in politics.
00:14:10.920 When he went to
00:14:11.680 his,
00:14:12.660 those dinners
00:14:13.780 he used to put
00:14:14.300 on 73,
00:14:15.340 73rd Street,
00:14:16.480 it was very hard
00:14:17.180 to talk about politics.
00:14:18.340 He was always wandering
00:14:20.360 off in odd directions.
00:14:22.760 And you can see that
00:14:23.760 in the way
00:14:24.100 he lived his life
00:14:25.180 laterally,
00:14:25.680 I mean,
00:14:25.800 writing these books
00:14:26.540 and so on.
00:14:27.100 He just basically
00:14:27.980 didn't do any serious
00:14:28.840 thinking about politics.
00:14:30.440 Initially,
00:14:30.980 he was very,
00:14:31.540 I have a letter from him
00:14:32.360 actually saying
00:14:32.860 how wonderful
00:14:33.380 my immigration story was.
00:14:36.780 Really?
00:14:37.440 Yes.
00:14:37.920 And it was,
00:14:38.680 you know,
00:14:38.880 I forget what he said,
00:14:39.760 but he said
00:14:40.000 it was beautifully
00:14:40.840 organized
00:14:41.380 and beautifully argued
00:14:42.700 and the tone
00:14:43.800 was perfect
00:14:44.360 and that sort of stuff.
00:14:46.600 He never admitted
00:14:47.360 that he changed
00:14:48.140 his mind on immigration.
00:14:49.140 He just said,
00:14:50.660 told them
00:14:51.080 not to stop covering it.
00:14:52.880 But the official line
00:14:54.380 of the magazine
00:14:55.280 was that the immigration
00:14:56.220 was questionable.
00:14:57.760 They just didn't do
00:14:58.420 any journalism on it.
00:14:59.700 Which is how he was
00:15:00.580 about drug legalization.
00:15:02.060 He was officially
00:15:03.460 in favor of drug legalization,
00:15:05.320 but he very rarely
00:15:06.000 let the magazine
00:15:06.760 write about him.
00:15:08.380 Huh.
00:15:08.820 Why?
00:15:09.140 I guess he was balancing
00:15:13.440 a number of issues.
00:15:15.240 In the case of immigration, 0.92
00:15:16.660 you know,
00:15:17.080 I think he's done.
00:15:19.320 Immigration was a very 1.00
00:15:20.200 unfashionable subject
00:15:21.100 in the other way.
00:15:21.420 I remember.
00:15:21.940 And I think
00:15:27.380 as we were talking
00:15:28.600 earlier,
00:15:29.320 I was watching
00:15:30.500 Ben Shapiro
00:15:31.240 on
00:15:31.840 Megyn Kelly.
00:15:35.000 Megyn Kelly, yes.
00:15:36.720 And he was attacking you
00:15:38.220 for some reason
00:15:38.760 or I forget what.
00:15:40.080 And he was saying
00:15:40.760 that,
00:15:41.540 then he suddenly says,
00:15:42.880 but Tucker's good
00:15:43.460 on some things.
00:15:43.980 He's good in immigration.
00:15:45.460 Well, as I understand
00:15:46.220 that you've,
00:15:46.640 you're interested in the idea
00:15:47.940 of immigration moratorium
00:15:49.040 and so on.
00:15:49.660 Of course.
00:15:50.080 Um, this news to me,
00:15:52.360 that's what Ben Shapiro
00:15:53.160 thinks is good
00:15:53.700 about immigration.
00:15:54.760 I mean,
00:15:55.180 just about five
00:15:55.940 or six years ago
00:15:56.680 in National Review,
00:15:57.660 he called me
00:15:58.140 a white supremacist
00:15:59.100 for basically,
00:15:59.920 for no other reason
00:16:00.840 than advocating
00:16:02.460 immigration reduction.
00:16:03.960 And those days,
00:16:04.760 if you're back
00:16:05.220 in the early days,
00:16:06.160 if you,
00:16:06.400 if you,
00:16:06.960 uh,
00:16:07.840 advocated
00:16:08.900 immigration control,
00:16:10.520 uh,
00:16:10.900 you're immediately suspect,
00:16:12.480 uh,
00:16:12.740 you're immediately suspect
00:16:13.680 of being anti-Semite,
00:16:15.080 even though there's
00:16:15.580 no direct connection at all.
00:16:17.040 And now they've changed
00:16:17.840 their mind on this.
00:16:18.560 They've fallen back.
00:16:19.360 I mean,
00:16:19.480 Norman before he died.
00:16:20.520 I was,
00:16:20.900 I was very friendly
00:16:21.660 with Norman.
00:16:22.120 He didn't talk to me
00:16:22.820 for the last 10 years
00:16:23.540 of his life.
00:16:24.600 But he,
00:16:25.020 he,
00:16:25.320 he died just a few,
00:16:26.520 a few weeks ago
00:16:27.480 at the age of 95.
00:16:28.740 But just before he died,
00:16:30.000 he gave an interview
00:16:30.620 in which he said
00:16:31.140 he changed his mind
00:16:31.900 in immigration.
00:16:32.800 He thought there was a limit
00:16:33.500 to how much immigration
00:16:34.180 could,
00:16:34.500 could be absorbed.
00:16:35.820 And he credited
00:16:36.480 John O'Sullivan,
00:16:37.280 the head of National Review,
00:16:38.140 for helping change his mind.
00:16:39.800 He didn't,
00:16:40.020 he didn't mention me.
00:16:41.500 Why didn't he speak to you
00:16:42.900 for the last 10 years
00:16:43.600 of his life?
00:16:44.120 Well,
00:16:45.940 I just,
00:16:46.400 I think he just decided
00:16:47.380 that I was a suspicious character.
00:16:50.660 And I deviated
00:16:52.300 on the immigration issue.
00:16:53.660 And he suspected,
00:16:54.960 I had the habit
00:16:56.340 of calling the National Review,
00:16:58.520 the Goldberg Review,
00:16:59.600 because at that stage,
00:17:00.680 briefly,
00:17:01.040 it was dominated
00:17:01.620 by John,
00:17:02.140 John Goldberg,
00:17:03.040 who I think is a complete
00:17:03.840 fraud and lightweight.
00:17:05.300 And of course,
00:17:06.000 was absolutely boneheaded
00:17:07.240 on the immigration issue.
00:17:08.240 Well,
00:17:08.340 he's certainly a lightweight.
00:17:09.900 It's hard to know
00:17:10.720 what he believes or doesn't,
00:17:12.480 but he certainly,
00:17:14.140 I mean,
00:17:14.420 if John Goldberg
00:17:15.360 is like your intellectual force,
00:17:17.080 then you've been degraded.
00:17:19.760 Well,
00:17:20.020 Norman actually emailed me
00:17:21.180 and said,
00:17:21.640 you've got to stop calling
00:17:22.780 National Review
00:17:23.300 the Goldberg Review
00:17:24.140 because it sounds anti-Semitic.
00:17:25.960 Actually,
00:17:26.560 my understanding
00:17:27.480 is that Goldberg
00:17:28.640 is not technically Jewish.
00:17:30.380 His mother was a Gentile. 1.00
00:17:33.680 I knew her.
00:17:34.360 She was a great person,
00:17:35.200 actually.
00:17:35.940 I replied and said that
00:17:37.680 he didn't get bad.
00:17:38.460 But he just gradually
00:17:39.260 suspected more and more
00:17:41.420 of thought crime.
00:17:42.860 And Norman was
00:17:43.300 an extremely passionate man.
00:17:44.700 He didn't...
00:17:45.640 So famously.
00:17:48.300 He didn't socialize
00:17:52.560 with opponents.
00:17:55.800 I miss him.
00:17:56.800 I really liked him.
00:17:58.200 I was sorry.
00:17:59.020 No,
00:17:59.260 there was a lot about him
00:18:00.160 that was appealing.
00:18:00.960 He was a man of great energy
00:18:02.120 and I admired him
00:18:04.460 in a lot of ways,
00:18:05.180 kind of repulsive in others,
00:18:06.320 but certainly
00:18:07.840 he was not standing still.
00:18:09.300 He was constantly
00:18:09.960 in motion.
00:18:11.440 And I actually...
00:18:12.940 His wife,
00:18:13.620 Mitch Dexter,
00:18:14.180 a lot
00:18:14.420 because she was
00:18:15.420 the chair thing
00:18:16.540 of the Philadelphia Society
00:18:17.660 which is a conservative
00:18:19.120 affinity group.
00:18:20.440 And she invited me
00:18:21.440 to speak on immigration
00:18:22.360 in, I guess,
00:18:24.340 2005.
00:18:26.000 And that's where I met...
00:18:26.940 My first wife
00:18:27.680 had just died
00:18:28.300 and that's where I met
00:18:29.060 my current wife,
00:18:30.020 Lydia,
00:18:30.340 who of course
00:18:30.840 was running
00:18:31.340 the VDARE Foundation
00:18:32.900 with me.
00:18:33.440 She was the publisher
00:18:34.160 of VDARE.com
00:18:35.120 and you've had her on,
00:18:36.280 of course.
00:18:36.760 Oh,
00:18:36.980 of course.
00:18:37.540 And I'm a fan.
00:18:38.780 She's a brave woman
00:18:39.580 and a smart one.
00:18:41.480 May I ask
00:18:42.520 what happened
00:18:43.260 to your relationship
00:18:43.940 with Bill Buckley?
00:18:48.960 I...
00:18:49.640 When he fired
00:18:51.220 John O'Sullivan,
00:18:52.340 I was the only one
00:18:53.580 of the entire staff
00:18:54.320 who went in
00:18:54.800 and asked,
00:18:55.440 why did you fire him?
00:18:57.620 Because...
00:18:57.980 What?
00:18:58.820 Yeah,
00:18:59.340 well,
00:18:59.720 the official line
00:19:00.440 was John had resigned
00:19:01.220 to write a book.
00:19:02.480 That was because
00:19:03.400 John was very popular
00:19:05.040 with the National Review
00:19:06.860 base
00:19:08.840 and the immigration
00:19:09.540 issue was very popular
00:19:12.520 and so he didn't want
00:19:13.160 to admit that
00:19:13.660 he was dumping them both.
00:19:15.900 So he got really ruffled
00:19:17.140 because he wasn't used
00:19:17.900 to being challenged
00:19:18.580 and said,
00:19:19.700 why should I write
00:19:20.560 a book
00:19:21.160 and resigns to write a book
00:19:21.980 and we basically
00:19:24.180 never spoke to each other
00:19:25.120 after that.
00:19:25.940 I mean,
00:19:26.540 I was constructively
00:19:29.220 dismissed
00:19:29.600 from National Review.
00:19:30.240 I got a letter
00:19:30.780 to tell me
00:19:31.160 I was no longer
00:19:31.740 a senior editor
00:19:32.460 which was actually
00:19:33.500 very important
00:19:34.660 in the National Review
00:19:36.820 world
00:19:37.140 because it was run
00:19:38.120 like a fraternity
00:19:39.000 and if you were
00:19:40.540 a senior editor
00:19:40.960 you were automatically
00:19:41.820 invited to all kinds
00:19:42.840 of events
00:19:43.240 and so on
00:19:43.740 and to his dinners
00:19:44.520 and all that kind of thing
00:19:45.500 and I never wrote
00:19:47.780 for it again.
00:19:49.660 Why did they dismiss you
00:19:51.320 do you think?
00:19:52.420 Oh,
00:19:52.640 well,
00:19:52.860 I'm sure that
00:19:53.520 the Washington Bureau
00:19:54.500 was always upset
00:19:55.240 with the immigration issue
00:19:56.220 because it embarrassed them
00:19:58.020 it embarrassed them
00:20:00.020 in Washington cocktail parties
00:20:01.120 you know
00:20:01.520 and he put the Washington Bureau
00:20:03.760 in charge of the magazine
00:20:04.640 so I'm sure
00:20:05.460 they would be happy
00:20:06.340 to do it
00:20:06.920 and they didn't want
00:20:10.420 to write about immigration
00:20:11.200 and I think also
00:20:12.740 you know,
00:20:13.740 mud sticks, Tucker.
00:20:15.360 Mud sticks, yeah.
00:20:16.460 And by this constant
00:20:18.000 whispering campaign
00:20:18.900 of how I was a racist 0.71
00:20:20.160 and anti-Semite
00:20:20.920 for raising these issues
00:20:21.840 it sticks
00:20:22.360 and it has stuck
00:20:23.640 so that,
00:20:25.060 you know,
00:20:26.460 even though Ben Shapiro
00:20:27.440 is now in his favor
00:20:28.160 of just talking
00:20:29.100 about immigration
00:20:29.680 I don't see him
00:20:31.180 apologizing to me.
00:20:33.240 No,
00:20:33.840 well,
00:20:34.180 of course not.
00:20:34.740 He doesn't care
00:20:35.360 about you at all
00:20:36.240 or other people at all.
00:20:39.060 I had a really
00:20:39.600 interesting experience recently.
00:20:41.020 Lydia and I
00:20:41.760 were at an ISI
00:20:43.560 book event
00:20:44.560 and I bought
00:20:45.660 Matthew Cotinetti's book
00:20:46.740 I mean,
00:20:46.940 I actually bought it
00:20:47.600 I put down my
00:20:48.320 it's a rotten awful book
00:20:50.280 about the conservative movement
00:20:52.200 says that I was born in Carda
00:20:53.760 which obviously wasn't.
00:20:55.640 Well, 1.00
00:20:55.660 he's a silly, 1.00
00:20:56.760 I mean, 1.00
00:20:57.040 this is Bill Kristolson
00:20:58.640 Bill Kristolson,
00:20:59.640 that's the point.
00:21:00.160 I took it up to him
00:21:00.880 and went,
00:21:01.180 I like to collect
00:21:02.020 inscribed books
00:21:02.920 in fact,
00:21:03.740 I forgot to bring your book
00:21:04.720 I'm sorry
00:21:05.160 but,
00:21:06.160 and he wouldn't sign it.
00:21:08.600 Why?
00:21:08.780 He wouldn't inscribe it.
00:21:10.000 He said,
00:21:10.280 I have nothing to say to you
00:21:11.280 and the really weird thing
00:21:12.680 about this is that
00:21:13.280 on what ground?
00:21:14.080 I mean,
00:21:14.460 I don't think you've ever said
00:21:15.640 that I'm aware of
00:21:16.820 an anti-Semitic thing
00:21:17.720 in your life.
00:21:18.360 I don't think you're
00:21:18.880 an anti-Semite.
00:21:19.860 Well,
00:21:20.460 Cotinetti's a convert of course 1.00
00:21:21.760 so he's probably very,
00:21:23.280 you know,
00:21:24.400 particularly ardent
00:21:25.660 but,
00:21:26.380 but,
00:21:26.800 I think the weird thing
00:21:28.160 about this was that
00:21:28.760 Cotinetti had actually
00:21:29.660 written some quite sensible
00:21:30.660 things on immigration
00:21:31.520 which is odd
00:21:32.820 when you think
00:21:33.260 who his father-in-law is.
00:21:34.660 But he said to your face,
00:21:35.600 I won't inscribe your book
00:21:36.940 because I have nothing
00:21:37.760 to say to you?
00:21:38.700 Essentially,
00:21:39.180 yes,
00:21:39.380 that's right.
00:21:40.760 He just wouldn't,
00:21:41.700 he signed it
00:21:42.500 but he wouldn't inscribe it
00:21:43.520 and then he said
00:21:44.280 nothing to say to you.
00:21:46.640 Wow.
00:21:47.800 Yeah,
00:21:48.100 I mean,
00:21:48.940 it's kind of surprising
00:21:49.900 and we live out there
00:21:50.660 in the eastern panhandle
00:21:51.880 of West Virginia
00:21:52.400 and we don't have to
00:21:52.980 face this stuff
00:21:53.560 but I guess
00:21:53.880 when you're in D.C.
00:21:54.560 you face it all the time.
00:21:56.060 Yeah,
00:21:56.340 well,
00:21:56.460 I laughed
00:21:57.540 but I also believe
00:21:58.780 in forgiveness
00:21:59.300 and that's kind of
00:21:59.980 the difference,
00:22:00.620 I think.
00:22:01.160 I mean,
00:22:01.420 we're commanded
00:22:02.000 to believe in forgiveness
00:22:03.000 and to treat people
00:22:03.780 as human beings.
00:22:04.700 And Norman didn't believe that.
00:22:06.000 No,
00:22:06.240 I'm very aware of that.
00:22:07.800 I'm very aware of that.
00:22:09.640 It was a principle
00:22:10.260 position with him.
00:22:11.140 Yeah,
00:22:11.380 it's a principle
00:22:12.380 but it's a satanic principle
00:22:14.420 that you can't forgive
00:22:15.420 other people
00:22:16.020 that is,
00:22:16.620 you're not forgiven
00:22:17.140 if you don't
00:22:17.620 so that's my view
00:22:18.380 but,
00:22:19.140 wow,
00:22:20.060 what a,
00:22:20.400 that's amazing.
00:22:21.440 So you were just cast out.
00:22:23.040 Well,
00:22:23.200 the thing is
00:22:23.540 he'd already signed the book
00:22:24.440 so I couldn't give it,
00:22:25.120 he signed it
00:22:25.640 but I hadn't inscribed it.
00:22:26.300 I couldn't give it back
00:22:26.980 to get my money back.
00:22:29.380 Whereas conversely,
00:22:30.360 Yoram Hazoni was also there
00:22:31.780 and,
00:22:32.420 you know,
00:22:32.820 Hazoni,
00:22:33.340 as you know,
00:22:33.800 banned us from his
00:22:34.700 National Conservative Conference
00:22:35.940 because he said
00:22:37.240 he didn't think
00:22:37.720 we were appropriate
00:22:39.400 and so we have,
00:22:41.940 and we had a series
00:22:43.080 of bitter exchanges
00:22:43.920 in Bidea
00:22:45.060 but Hazoni
00:22:46.040 was perfectly friendly
00:22:46.860 and he signed the book
00:22:47.920 and inscribed it
00:22:48.620 and we chatted
00:22:49.040 about children
00:22:50.060 and grandchildren
00:22:50.640 and so on.
00:22:51.460 Yoram Hazoni
00:22:51.920 is a very courtly man,
00:22:54.000 a very charming
00:22:55.180 and warm person,
00:22:56.920 I'll say.
00:22:57.540 I had lunch with him once
00:22:58.400 and I don't agree
00:22:59.640 with him on a lot
00:23:00.240 but I,
00:23:00.940 I was,
00:23:02.940 I liked him.
00:23:03.700 It's hard not to like him.
00:23:04.580 I think he's very good.
00:23:05.680 A lot of the stuff
00:23:06.520 he says about consumerism
00:23:07.420 isn't exactly accurate.
00:23:08.420 I think that's right.
00:23:09.220 He's moving it away
00:23:09.840 from being classical liberalism.
00:23:13.100 The problem,
00:23:13.860 of course,
00:23:14.120 is that he's caught
00:23:15.640 in this bind
00:23:17.060 because he doesn't want
00:23:17.860 to admit that
00:23:18.460 Israel is an ethnostate 1.00
00:23:20.380 because he doesn't want 0.95
00:23:22.120 the Americans
00:23:22.420 to have ethnostate.
00:23:23.340 He wants them
00:23:23.700 to be a civic nationalist state.
00:23:29.200 What do you mean
00:23:30.280 won't admit,
00:23:31.180 I mean Israel is
00:23:32.080 by its own description
00:23:33.340 an ethnostate.
00:23:34.620 Yeah,
00:23:34.860 but he keeps arguing
00:23:35.720 that.
00:23:36.640 That's not an attack
00:23:37.500 by the way,
00:23:38.020 at all.
00:23:38.580 Well,
00:23:39.000 you know,
00:23:39.720 I've never been able
00:23:41.080 to get him to explain
00:23:42.220 how you cannot say
00:23:44.460 that there's
00:23:44.880 a racial component
00:23:46.800 to Israel
00:23:47.300 when the Jewish religion
00:23:49.820 is racially based.
00:23:51.380 I mean,
00:23:51.580 that's why they have
00:23:52.400 the matrilineal principle
00:23:54.140 where you've got
00:23:54.900 to have a Jewish mother.
00:23:56.300 And I've never seen him
00:23:57.160 respond to that.
00:23:59.060 And I don't think he can
00:24:00.260 because he doesn't want
00:24:03.180 to encourage
00:24:03.960 straight up white nationalism
00:24:06.040 in America.
00:24:06.940 For years you've been told
00:24:07.920 this is not happening
00:24:08.840 and you're a bigot 0.71
00:24:09.600 for thinking it is,
00:24:10.940 but it is happening.
00:24:12.160 Mass migration
00:24:12.820 is reshaping the West
00:24:14.280 completely.
00:24:15.440 It's not a conspiracy theory,
00:24:16.500 it's a fact.
00:24:17.520 Different people
00:24:18.240 live here now.
00:24:20.020 You're not a racist
00:24:20.660 for noticing that,
00:24:21.600 you're just using
00:24:22.240 your senses.
00:24:23.220 Again,
00:24:23.520 it's not a theory,
00:24:24.300 it's the biggest fact
00:24:25.940 of this or any generation
00:24:28.000 in a thousand years.
00:24:29.620 The replacement is real.
00:24:31.320 European governments
00:24:32.080 aren't just tolerating
00:24:32.960 mass migration,
00:24:34.140 they're encouraging it,
00:24:35.600 they're funding it.
00:24:36.840 They hate their populations
00:24:38.000 and they want
00:24:38.760 new populations.
00:24:40.400 We've got a new documentary
00:24:41.340 on this called
00:24:42.080 Replacing Europe, 1.00
00:24:43.580 Following the World's 0.98
00:24:44.380 Deadliest Migration Route. 1.00
00:24:45.620 Our filmmakers
00:24:46.580 follow what nobody
00:24:47.360 wants you to see.
00:24:48.040 They spoke directly
00:24:48.700 with migrants,
00:24:49.840 locals,
00:24:50.440 officials who admit
00:24:51.440 what the public
00:24:52.020 is never told.
00:24:53.660 It's not ideological,
00:24:55.340 it's reality.
00:24:57.080 This is happening,
00:24:58.180 it's destroying the West,
00:24:59.660 and our cameras
00:25:00.960 caught it.
00:25:02.160 Replacing Europe. 0.96
00:25:04.460 That's the doc,
00:25:05.500 only on TCN now.
00:25:07.200 It's the family

00:25:25.400 I just want to be clear
00:25:26.600 about my own views,
00:25:27.300 not that it matters,
00:25:28.060 but just because
00:25:28.620 I hold them sincerely,
00:25:30.400 I have no problem
00:25:31.400 with the fact that Israel
00:25:32.420 is an ethnostate, 0.81
00:25:33.300 it's their country,
00:25:34.160 you can have whatever state
00:25:34.880 you want,
00:25:35.380 as far as I'm concerned.
00:25:37.300 But it is an ethnostate,
00:25:39.000 by definition.
00:25:40.640 The people who founded it
00:25:41.640 were not religious,
00:25:42.600 a lot of them were atheists,
00:25:44.280 and they identified
00:25:45.900 as Jewish racially.
00:25:48.300 Again,
00:25:48.820 I have no problem
00:25:49.520 with that at all,
00:25:50.060 that's their country.
00:25:51.400 But to say it's not
00:25:52.300 an ethnostate
00:25:53.040 is not only a lie,
00:25:54.280 but it's like 0.99
00:25:54.700 a ludicrous lie. 0.87
00:25:56.280 And he won't admit that? 0.94
00:25:58.560 That's my reading
00:26:00.280 of what he wants,
00:26:01.060 as only as saying.
00:26:02.360 But it's one
00:26:03.160 of the situations
00:26:03.860 where his civic
00:26:04.600 nationalism is so intense
00:26:05.860 that it might just as well
00:26:06.760 be ethnic nationalism
00:26:07.520 for the U.S.
00:26:08.840 But a lot of things
00:26:09.480 he says about immigration
00:26:10.500 to the U.S.
00:26:11.020 are excellent.
00:26:12.540 Right, I agree.
00:26:13.200 And I'm not attacking
00:26:14.140 Yoram Hazzoni at all,
00:26:15.440 whom I like,
00:26:16.640 but that's dishonest
00:26:18.200 because Israel
00:26:19.340 is an ethnostate, 0.81
00:26:21.540 and you should just
00:26:22.520 tell the truth about,
00:26:23.780 especially about
00:26:24.240 obvious things, right?
00:26:25.440 Well, it's what
00:26:25.940 all we call
00:26:26.340 double-think, isn't it?
00:26:27.620 It's double-think.
00:26:29.020 You've got to believe
00:26:29.620 two contradictory things
00:26:30.560 at once,
00:26:31.020 and it's necessary
00:26:31.740 to operate
00:26:32.200 in large parts
00:26:33.940 of the political world.
00:26:36.240 Interesting.
00:26:36.920 So, but why wouldn't
00:26:38.400 people who support
00:26:40.200 an ethnostate
00:26:41.000 in Israel
00:26:41.620 want one here?
00:26:43.320 I mean,
00:26:43.540 why would they
00:26:44.320 object to that
00:26:44.980 so strongly?
00:26:45.620 I mean, of course,
00:26:46.200 this is the profound
00:26:46.940 question about
00:26:47.800 the American-Jewish role
00:26:49.480 in the American
00:26:50.000 immigration debate.
00:26:50.860 They're overwhelmingly 0.97
00:26:51.600 pro-immigration.
00:26:52.840 However, having said that,
00:26:54.360 you know,
00:26:55.120 typically,
00:26:56.340 if you know
00:26:56.860 anything about Jewish
00:26:57.360 intellectual life,
00:26:58.160 you know there are
00:26:58.560 people on the other
00:26:59.200 side,
00:27:00.040 and some people
00:27:00.740 are very hard
00:27:01.160 on the other side.
00:27:01.920 Oh, and I know
00:27:02.740 a lot of them.
00:27:03.580 That's why I would
00:27:04.140 never be anti-Semitic,
00:27:05.180 because I mean,
00:27:06.040 you can't generalize,
00:27:07.520 you know.
00:27:08.400 I mean, I have a hunch
00:27:10.340 that Stephen Miller,
00:27:11.600 who, of course,
00:27:12.420 is an aide to Trump,
00:27:14.620 I think he's the
00:27:15.040 deputy chief of staff
00:27:16.000 or something,
00:27:16.380 he's going to be
00:27:16.960 the first Jewish
00:27:17.640 president.
00:27:18.600 I say this because
00:27:19.380 it's hard to
00:27:19.840 prosper,
00:27:20.280 it horrifies people
00:27:20.960 so much.
00:27:22.460 But he's like
00:27:23.180 Disraeli in Britain.
00:27:24.240 Benjamin Disraeli,
00:27:25.060 of course,
00:27:25.320 was Jewish,
00:27:25.780 but converted
00:27:27.400 to Episcopalianism,
00:27:29.320 he was converted
00:27:30.360 by his father
00:27:30.920 at a very early age,
00:27:32.060 his father
00:27:32.680 took the whole family
00:27:34.400 over to being
00:27:35.160 Episcopalians.
00:27:36.600 He basically
00:27:37.460 invented the
00:27:38.480 Conservative Party,
00:27:39.600 reinvented the
00:27:40.380 Conservative Party
00:27:40.900 in the 19th century,
00:27:41.760 came up with,
00:27:42.260 in Britain,
00:27:42.780 he came up with
00:27:43.320 a complete grand
00:27:44.100 strategy for it
00:27:44.800 based on the empire
00:27:45.780 and imperial patriotism
00:27:48.320 and so on.
00:27:49.140 And that really
00:27:49.680 carried the party
00:27:50.460 through for the
00:27:52.400 next,
00:27:52.700 eight to
00:27:56.220 90 years.
00:27:58.720 A couple of
00:27:59.340 generations,
00:27:59.940 the Conservative Party
00:28:00.420 in Britain was a
00:28:01.320 nationalist party
00:28:02.100 and because of
00:28:03.540 being a nationalist
00:28:04.260 party,
00:28:04.740 got a very
00:28:05.180 substantial
00:28:05.720 working class
00:28:07.460 vote because
00:28:08.640 it is the blue
00:28:09.940 collar workers
00:28:10.500 who are the
00:28:10.780 patriots.
00:28:11.280 and the
00:28:13.980 Conservative Party
00:28:14.560 was able to
00:28:15.040 tap into that.
00:28:16.040 Miller's done
00:28:16.700 the same thing.
00:28:17.920 He's invented
00:28:18.520 a grand strategy
00:28:19.960 for the Republican
00:28:20.540 Party which he
00:28:21.240 desperately doesn't
00:28:21.780 want to take up
00:28:23.200 because it's run 0.99
00:28:24.820 by cowards and 1.00
00:28:25.560 fools. 1.00
00:28:26.440 But he thinks 1.00
00:28:27.560 they should move
00:28:28.940 towards,
00:28:29.600 you know,
00:28:32.800 re-stabilizing
00:28:34.060 America's
00:28:34.600 ethnic balance
00:28:35.300 and basically
00:28:37.000 eliminating this
00:28:38.700 immigrant inflow
00:28:39.440 which is causing
00:28:40.020 all kinds of
00:28:40.580 problems for lower
00:28:41.320 skilled workers
00:28:42.040 and ultimately
00:28:43.060 changing the
00:28:44.000 racial balance.
00:28:45.340 And he's not
00:28:45.840 afraid to admit
00:28:46.460 that.
00:28:47.300 And not only
00:28:50.480 that but
00:28:51.000 I don't think
00:28:51.560 anyone should be
00:28:52.460 afraid.
00:28:53.020 He has the cunning
00:28:53.260 to survive the
00:28:54.160 Kushner White
00:28:54.700 House.
00:28:55.440 I mean that was
00:28:56.140 really extraordinary
00:28:56.640 because Jared Kushner
00:28:57.700 of course bleeds
00:28:58.200 exactly the opposite.
00:28:59.000 He's basically a
00:28:59.480 liberal New York
00:29:00.020 Jew. 0.90
00:29:00.780 But for some
00:29:01.320 reason Miller was
00:29:01.920 able to survive
00:29:02.660 with him.
00:29:03.840 I couldn't have
00:29:04.440 done that.
00:29:05.480 So,
00:29:06.160 and I
00:29:08.300 wouldn't have
00:29:09.060 abandoned Jeff
00:29:10.080 Sessions in the
00:29:10.720 way that he
00:29:11.120 did.
00:29:11.460 The Sessions
00:29:11.760 was his
00:29:12.440 close aide
00:29:13.060 and was his
00:29:14.460 mentor and
00:29:15.500 then Miller
00:29:16.500 abandons him
00:29:17.420 when Trump
00:29:17.780 turns against
00:29:18.320 him.
00:29:18.600 I couldn't
00:29:18.960 have done
00:29:19.200 that either
00:29:19.580 but then
00:29:20.000 he's in the
00:29:20.680 White House
00:29:21.000 and I'm
00:29:21.280 not.
00:29:21.960 Yeah,
00:29:22.280 no,
00:29:22.560 I think
00:29:22.820 those are
00:29:23.140 all fair
00:29:24.440 and true
00:29:25.260 observations.
00:29:27.460 It's
00:29:27.900 interesting
00:29:28.340 though
00:29:28.700 the degree
00:29:30.720 to which
00:29:31.200 the immigration
00:29:32.020 project
00:29:33.600 is a
00:29:35.240 demographic
00:29:36.240 project.
00:29:36.960 I mean
00:29:37.440 it has
00:29:38.140 almost
00:29:38.520 explicitly
00:29:39.060 been an
00:29:39.580 effort
00:29:39.780 to make
00:29:40.240 America
00:29:40.660 less
00:29:41.200 white.
00:29:41.760 They'll
00:29:41.920 say that.
00:29:43.380 It's not
00:29:43.820 controversial.
00:29:44.800 I mean
00:29:44.960 you could
00:29:45.240 prove it
00:29:46.340 on video
00:29:46.960 or didn't
00:29:47.680 even bother
00:29:48.240 to because
00:29:48.720 I think
00:29:48.940 most people
00:29:49.240 watching this
00:29:49.640 already know
00:29:50.060 that.
00:29:50.980 It's
00:29:51.160 architects
00:29:51.640 starting with
00:29:52.420 Teddy Kennedy
00:29:53.000 in 1965
00:29:53.760 basically just
00:29:54.480 said,
00:29:55.620 ultimately
00:29:56.080 admitted,
00:29:57.020 the whole
00:29:57.460 point is to
00:29:57.900 make America
00:29:58.380 less white 0.65
00:29:58.880 a non-majority 0.78
00:30:00.120 white country.
00:30:00.700 why is
00:30:03.360 it so
00:30:03.720 hard for
00:30:04.660 conservatives
00:30:05.900 to say
00:30:06.720 the same?
00:30:07.680 If
00:30:07.860 Democrats
00:30:08.220 are saying
00:30:08.660 we want
00:30:09.060 America
00:30:09.400 to be 0.55
00:30:09.680 non-white,
00:30:10.420 why can't
00:30:11.020 conservatives
00:30:11.460 say that
00:30:13.320 that's what
00:30:13.620 their motive
00:30:13.980 is?
00:30:14.820 I have to
00:30:15.560 say that
00:30:16.000 Kennedy
00:30:16.260 didn't say
00:30:16.860 that.
00:30:18.440 At first.
00:30:19.960 When he was
00:30:20.380 the floor
00:30:20.700 manager of the
00:30:21.260 Hartzellar,
00:30:21.900 he gave
00:30:22.200 a very
00:30:22.540 explicit
00:30:23.020 assurance
00:30:23.440 saying that
00:30:24.960 this will
00:30:25.480 not alter
00:30:26.200 the racial
00:30:27.020 balance of
00:30:27.540 America and
00:30:28.440 it will not
00:30:28.980 mean a
00:30:29.500 million people
00:30:30.040 a year
00:30:30.220 will be
00:30:30.440 coming in
00:30:30.840 whereas in
00:30:31.120 fact a million
00:30:31.740 people a year
00:30:32.160 are coming
00:30:32.840 in.
00:30:33.340 And that's
00:30:33.980 one of the
00:30:34.400 reasons I
00:30:34.780 bitterly regret
00:30:35.520 not having
00:30:36.200 a VDAIR
00:30:36.820 even though I
00:30:37.900 have my own
00:30:38.540 peterbrummel.com
00:30:41.200 sub-stack.
00:30:42.240 That's not the
00:30:42.820 same kind of
00:30:43.740 voice because
00:30:44.280 we've got to
00:30:44.820 get legal
00:30:45.240 immigration into
00:30:45.860 the debate
00:30:46.620 here.
00:30:47.840 I think what
00:30:48.600 Trump has done
00:30:49.220 on illegal
00:30:49.840 immigration is
00:30:50.480 remarkable and
00:30:51.280 more remarkable
00:30:52.880 than people
00:30:53.500 realize but
00:30:54.160 we're not doing
00:30:55.140 anything on
00:30:55.580 legal immigration.
00:30:56.960 But I'm
00:30:57.280 sorry that means
00:30:58.060 I've not
00:30:58.300 answered your
00:30:58.660 question.
00:30:59.020 What was your
00:30:59.360 question?
00:30:59.680 Well my
00:31:00.120 question was
00:31:00.700 the whole
00:31:01.900 point of the
00:31:02.460 project was
00:31:03.380 not to
00:31:04.040 like feed a
00:31:05.040 desperate need
00:31:05.700 for low
00:31:06.260 skilled labor.
00:31:07.280 That definitely
00:31:08.360 no longer
00:31:08.760 exists now
00:31:09.340 with AI.
00:31:10.980 And it
00:31:12.120 wasn't to
00:31:12.680 improve
00:31:13.340 America.
00:31:14.420 It's completely
00:31:15.020 destroyed America.
00:31:15.920 It destroyed the
00:31:16.400 state of California.
00:31:17.000 Well when I
00:31:17.980 was writing the
00:31:19.320 book I wrote on
00:31:19.960 immigration alienation
00:31:21.260 that flowed out
00:31:21.940 of my cover
00:31:22.400 story, the
00:31:22.940 95 book, which
00:31:24.380 Harper Collins
00:31:24.900 refused to
00:31:25.400 reprint, I
00:31:27.560 quoted a man
00:31:28.240 called Earl
00:31:28.680 Raab who
00:31:29.500 was a Jewish
00:31:30.260 activist and
00:31:30.980 so on.
00:31:31.260 And he
00:31:31.460 explicitly said
00:31:32.420 that Jews 0.87
00:31:33.480 were in
00:31:33.760 favor of
00:31:35.460 mass non-white 0.85
00:31:37.760 immigration because 0.62
00:31:38.480 it makes the
00:31:39.020 rise of a,
00:31:40.500 I didn't use the
00:31:41.400 term neo-Nazi
00:31:42.080 but that's
00:31:42.460 what he
00:31:42.680 meant, you
00:31:43.960 know, party
00:31:45.140 in America
00:31:46.140 impossible.
00:31:47.580 In fact he
00:31:47.940 does the exact
00:31:48.340 opposite, it
00:31:48.780 makes it more
00:31:49.280 likely.
00:31:49.600 Well exactly.
00:31:51.380 But he did
00:31:52.020 say that.
00:31:53.220 He quite
00:31:54.080 calmly said
00:31:54.760 that this is
00:31:55.180 why most
00:31:55.880 Jews favor
00:31:56.880 immigration.
00:31:57.840 Well it's
00:31:58.120 also made
00:31:58.660 the rise of
00:31:59.600 hard-edged
00:32:01.020 anti-Israel
00:32:01.860 politics.
00:32:03.560 And I'm
00:32:03.920 not pro-Israel
00:32:05.340 especially but I
00:32:06.320 don't hate
00:32:06.980 Israel.
00:32:07.640 A lot of
00:32:08.080 people who
00:32:08.420 hate Israel 0.54
00:32:09.020 are immigrants. 0.95
00:32:10.600 Look at the
00:32:11.440 New York's
00:32:11.820 New York
00:32:12.160 marriage.
00:32:13.060 Well exactly.
00:32:13.640 Vandami won
00:32:14.280 because the
00:32:14.700 immigrant vote.
00:32:15.260 Exactly.
00:32:16.120 Exactly.
00:32:16.760 The native-born
00:32:17.640 American New
00:32:19.140 Yorkers, and
00:32:20.060 God knows, look
00:32:20.760 at who they
00:32:21.140 are for God's
00:32:21.740 sake.
00:32:22.080 I mean, but
00:32:22.980 they voted
00:32:23.380 against Vandami.
00:32:24.980 Exactly.
00:32:26.060 So they 0.88
00:32:27.220 really screwed 0.79
00:32:27.720 themselves up.
00:32:28.200 This hasn't
00:32:28.660 worked.
00:32:30.040 I mean if
00:32:30.480 your interest
00:32:31.260 was to keep
00:32:32.300 anti-Semitism
00:32:33.800 and really kind
00:32:34.940 of crazy
00:32:35.480 anti-Israel
00:32:36.200 sentiment to a
00:32:36.940 minimum, and
00:32:37.580 I agree with
00:32:38.000 that.
00:32:38.240 I'm against
00:32:38.580 anti-Semitism,
00:32:39.460 I'm against
00:32:39.840 basing your
00:32:40.560 life on 0.91
00:32:40.880 hating Israel, 0.77
00:32:41.440 that seems
00:32:42.240 kind of 0.98
00:32:42.640 lunatic. 0.99
00:32:44.520 If that was
00:32:45.220 your goal, I
00:32:46.320 mean you
00:32:46.720 literally achieved
00:32:48.000 the opposite
00:32:48.420 result.
00:32:49.440 Is that fair
00:32:50.020 to say?
00:32:50.360 Not for the
00:32:50.700 first time.
00:32:51.780 Yeah.
00:32:52.100 Fair.
00:32:52.460 Fair.
00:32:55.160 So you
00:32:55.680 think maybe
00:32:56.600 that wasn't
00:32:57.220 the goal.
00:32:57.680 I don't know.
00:32:58.280 I'm just
00:32:58.620 guessing here.
00:32:59.260 Maybe there
00:32:59.580 was another
00:32:59.880 goal that we
00:33:00.440 don't understand.
00:33:01.020 Well, I
00:33:02.160 think a lot
00:33:02.700 of it is
00:33:03.260 deeply
00:33:03.920 emotional
00:33:05.720 and can't
00:33:07.860 be analyzed
00:33:08.720 intellectually.
00:33:09.920 It's just a
00:33:10.380 whole series
00:33:10.800 of reflexes.
00:33:12.080 Or spiritual.
00:33:12.840 But you
00:33:13.160 know,
00:33:14.300 one of the
00:33:15.660 reasons,
00:33:16.220 we know that
00:33:17.420 the New York
00:33:18.840 Attorney General
00:33:19.560 attack on us
00:33:20.380 was basically
00:33:23.160 instigated by the
00:33:24.180 Anti-Defamation
00:33:24.940 League because
00:33:26.640 a journalist we
00:33:27.700 know actually
00:33:28.140 got the ADL
00:33:29.120 to admit this,
00:33:30.240 that they had
00:33:30.620 gone to
00:33:30.940 Letitia James
00:33:32.000 and told her
00:33:32.520 to take
00:33:32.980 Fideira out.
00:33:34.580 And we say
00:33:35.060 to ourselves,
00:33:35.580 why us Jews?
00:33:36.900 What have we
00:33:37.280 ever done to you?
00:33:38.080 You know,
00:33:38.360 we have the
00:33:38.780 Berkeley Springs
00:33:39.340 Castle in West
00:33:40.220 Virginia,
00:33:40.680 which we bought
00:33:41.240 as a conference
00:33:41.820 venue because we're
00:33:42.420 not allowed to
00:33:42.860 have conferences
00:33:43.280 anywhere else.
00:33:44.660 The donor was
00:33:45.180 Jewish.
00:33:46.120 We had all
00:33:47.700 kinds of Jewish
00:33:48.280 donors and all
00:33:48.780 kinds of Jewish
00:33:49.200 writers.
00:33:51.080 But that doesn't
00:33:51.620 make any difference
00:33:52.240 to the ADL
00:33:54.220 apparently.
00:33:55.100 So what are you
00:33:56.340 going to do
00:33:57.140 when the
00:33:57.640 power goes out?
00:33:58.940 Not theoretically,
00:34:00.040 but actually in
00:34:01.080 real life.
00:34:02.340 Most Americans
00:34:02.800 used to think
00:34:03.620 total power
00:34:04.460 failure only
00:34:05.220 happened in
00:34:05.840 unstable countries,
00:34:06.840 places without
00:34:07.320 functioning governments,
00:34:08.640 places you only
00:34:10.060 went to on
00:34:10.560 vacation.
00:34:11.340 This is the U.S. 0.77
00:34:12.220 people would say
00:34:12.680 that could never
00:34:13.200 happen here.
00:34:14.400 Okay.
00:34:15.560 Well, then it
00:34:16.220 did.
00:34:16.880 Remember Texas
00:34:17.600 during the deep
00:34:18.300 freeze?
00:34:19.280 The grid
00:34:19.760 collapsed.
00:34:20.380 People were
00:34:20.740 left without
00:34:21.220 heat.
00:34:21.680 Some froze to
00:34:22.420 death in their
00:34:23.020 own homes.
00:34:24.520 So the truth
00:34:25.100 is obvious now.
00:34:25.840 The government
00:34:26.500 can't guarantee
00:34:27.920 you electricity.
00:34:29.960 And when things
00:34:30.500 go wrong,
00:34:31.300 no one's coming
00:34:31.980 to save you.
00:34:33.160 That's why

00:35:24.820 Now to what happened
00:35:25.740 to you and to VDARE.
00:35:26.940 So you're expelled
00:35:28.360 both from National
00:35:30.380 Review and you leave
00:35:31.460 your old life as a
00:35:32.340 financial journalist
00:35:33.000 behind.
00:35:34.500 I think it's a fair
00:35:35.580 summary.
00:35:35.980 And then you create
00:35:36.680 this organization
00:35:37.320 called VDARE, named
00:35:38.460 after Virginia
00:35:39.140 DARE, the first
00:35:39.800 British child born
00:35:41.100 in the Americas.
00:35:42.860 And it becomes
00:35:43.740 successful.
00:35:44.220 It becomes big.
00:35:45.060 And it's not
00:35:46.340 anti-Semitic.
00:35:47.180 It's not racist.
00:35:47.900 It's against changing
00:35:49.720 America's population
00:35:50.900 through immigration.
00:35:51.640 Is that a fair
00:35:52.060 summary?
00:35:52.700 Yeah.
00:35:53.020 I stayed in
00:35:53.600 financial journalism
00:35:54.380 for a long time.
00:35:55.920 VDARE was kind of
00:35:56.600 a moonlighting project.
00:35:58.640 How'd you pull that
00:35:59.380 off?
00:36:00.440 It was very difficult.
00:36:01.500 And of course
00:36:01.900 it eventually
00:36:02.660 became impossible.
00:36:05.280 And I was fired
00:36:07.360 both from Forbes
00:36:08.300 and from CBS.
00:36:10.740 What used to be
00:36:11.540 CBS Market Watch
00:36:12.320 became Dow Jones
00:36:13.100 Market Watch.
00:36:13.680 in both cases
00:36:14.840 it was during
00:36:15.880 turn downs
00:36:17.420 in the markets.
00:36:18.360 But I happened
00:36:18.940 to be the one
00:36:19.660 you know
00:36:20.500 they chose
00:36:22.740 to find me
00:36:23.320 rather than people
00:36:23.900 who were frankly
00:36:24.460 less valuable to them.
00:36:26.320 So it did
00:36:27.260 in the end
00:36:28.140 terminate my career
00:36:30.220 in the mainstream media.
00:36:31.760 But on the other hand
00:36:32.680 you know
00:36:32.940 we were developing
00:36:33.740 VDARE very rapidly
00:36:34.900 and it became
00:36:35.540 quite a big deal.
00:36:37.540 and in 2019
00:36:39.840 we raised nearly
00:36:40.680 four million dollars
00:36:41.520 which enabled us
00:36:42.100 to buy the castle
00:36:42.820 and do all kinds
00:36:43.480 of other things.
00:36:44.240 Of course
00:36:44.500 you know
00:36:45.640 it's been
00:36:46.680 utterly destroyed now.
00:36:48.340 I've been
00:36:48.740 out of it
00:36:50.760 for you know
00:36:51.500 it was suspended
00:36:52.160 two years ago
00:36:52.760 and I resigned.
00:36:53.640 So you know
00:36:54.220 I'm supporting
00:36:54.960 the family now
00:36:55.620 on pensions
00:36:56.960 and savings
00:36:58.040 and so on.
00:36:59.080 And I do have
00:36:59.700 a family.
00:37:00.260 I have minor children
00:37:01.340 so it's kind of irritating.
00:37:04.100 Irritating
00:37:04.580 doesn't begin
00:37:05.260 to describe it.
00:37:06.340 So
00:37:06.480 tell the story
00:37:07.940 if you would.
00:37:08.720 You're running
00:37:09.220 VDARE
00:37:10.040 and
00:37:11.320 somehow
00:37:12.360 Letitia James
00:37:13.540 who's the
00:37:13.920 Attorney General
00:37:15.620 of New York.
00:37:16.420 VDARE is a 5.1c3 charity
00:37:18.100 and it was registered
00:37:18.800 in New York
00:37:19.220 in 1999
00:37:20.040 entirely because
00:37:21.780 I then pro bono lawyer
00:37:23.280 happened to be
00:37:24.160 barred in New York
00:37:25.000 and therefore
00:37:25.540 that it was convenient
00:37:26.660 for him.
00:37:27.880 And this was when
00:37:28.920 you know
00:37:32.300 there was a
00:37:32.600 Republican governor
00:37:33.160 in New York
00:37:33.720 and nobody
00:37:34.200 ever heard of
00:37:34.660 lawfare
00:37:35.080 nobody heard of it.
00:37:35.780 The idea of lawfare
00:37:37.020 that this kind of
00:37:37.780 exploitation
00:37:39.660 of
00:37:40.460 regulatory
00:37:42.800 power
00:37:43.620 never occurred
00:37:44.560 to anybody
00:37:44.920 at that point.
00:37:46.040 Well because
00:37:46.600 we registered in New York
00:37:47.320 even though we don't
00:37:47.880 operate in New York
00:37:48.640 she was able to demand
00:37:50.060 we one day
00:37:51.120 woke up and found
00:37:51.800 we got these
00:37:52.240 massive subpoenas
00:37:53.620 demanding all kinds
00:37:56.080 of documents
00:37:56.540 including all our email
00:37:57.640 going back to
00:37:58.420 2016.
00:38:00.100 And of course
00:38:00.420 that was a huge problem
00:38:01.280 because if she got that
00:38:02.460 she would have the names
00:38:03.300 of our donors
00:38:03.980 and our anonymous
00:38:05.240 pseudonymous writers
00:38:06.460 and I had people
00:38:08.200 writing for me
00:38:08.880 whose career
00:38:09.360 would have been ruined
00:38:10.080 if they were fired.
00:38:11.880 May I ask him
00:38:12.400 what
00:38:12.600 okay so you're not
00:38:13.720 domiciled in New York
00:38:14.540 you're not operating
00:38:15.260 in New York
00:38:15.700 you're not
00:38:16.020 we registered in New York
00:38:17.360 that's the key point
00:38:18.040 but the 501c3
00:38:19.360 is registered in New York
00:38:20.460 that's right
00:38:20.840 and you can't get out
00:38:22.360 you've got to have
00:38:23.660 her permission to get out
00:38:24.640 and you know
00:38:25.200 you can't change states?
00:38:27.100 No
00:38:27.340 we can only with her permission
00:38:29.480 and in some circumstances
00:38:31.780 if we were to set up
00:38:32.560 another 501c3
00:38:33.920 and start operating
00:38:34.720 out of that
00:38:35.140 she would claim
00:38:35.740 that we were transferring
00:38:36.700 assets
00:38:37.000 and she would claim
00:38:37.680 jurisdiction over that
00:38:38.600 it's a huge mess
00:38:39.500 and we had very expensive
00:38:41.340 lawyers looking at it
00:38:42.140 for a long time
00:38:42.780 even before she came along
00:38:44.120 and hit us with this.
00:38:44.960 May I ask
00:38:46.640 on what grounds
00:38:47.540 she issued subpoenas
00:38:48.580 to you?
00:38:48.920 She doesn't have
00:38:49.700 to give grounds
00:38:50.480 but what she said
00:38:52.380 was she wanted
00:38:52.840 to investigate
00:38:53.340 the castle purchase
00:38:54.340 which we did in 2000
00:38:56.300 or more accurate
00:38:57.140 I should say
00:38:57.580 Lydia did in 2000
00:38:58.720 because as you know
00:39:00.420 we had
00:39:00.800 maybe a dozen
00:39:02.440 depends how you count
00:39:03.540 but a dozen
00:39:04.020 15 conferences cancelled
00:39:05.640 hotels would accept
00:39:07.400 a booking
00:39:07.800 then they would cancelled
00:39:08.540 as soon as they came
00:39:09.180 under pressure
00:39:09.680 from the left
00:39:10.360 and we realised
00:39:11.440 we were never going
00:39:12.000 to be able to have
00:39:12.700 a conference
00:39:14.300 so we bought
00:39:15.440 our own venue
00:39:16.080 and she wanted
00:39:17.640 to investigate that
00:39:18.440 well of course
00:39:19.220 all that purchase
00:39:21.280 was very carefully
00:39:22.200 lawed
00:39:22.560 precisely because
00:39:23.240 we knew she would
00:39:23.880 want to investigate it
00:39:24.880 but it doesn't
00:39:25.840 make any difference
00:39:26.440 she demands that
00:39:27.220 and she demanded 0.99
00:39:27.900 that
00:39:28.100 and she demanded 0.99
00:39:28.880 all kinds of
00:39:29.460 other things
00:39:29.980 the really killing
00:39:31.040 thing for us
00:39:31.540 was demanding
00:39:32.000 all the email
00:39:32.640 we had to turn
00:39:33.380 over more than
00:39:33.880 a million documents
00:39:34.740 we
00:39:35.400 the really killing
00:39:37.500 thing was demanding
00:39:38.140 the email
00:39:38.480 because we know
00:39:39.160 if she got
00:39:39.620 the writers
00:39:40.100 names
00:39:41.180 and the donors
00:39:41.900 names
00:39:42.160 she would release them
00:39:43.020 she did that
00:39:43.480 with Nikki Haley
00:39:44.120 they leaked
00:39:45.040 the donors
00:39:46.820 to her pack
00:39:47.600 and the papers
00:39:49.320 that you saw
00:39:50.960 that gave
00:39:52.060 the names
00:39:52.840 of Nikki Haley's
00:39:54.520 donors
00:39:55.040 were actually
00:39:55.900 the letterhead
00:39:56.900 was the New York
00:39:57.540 Attorney General's
00:39:58.400 office
00:39:59.040 but of course
00:40:00.980 nobody ever came
00:40:01.520 after her
00:40:01.840 I'm just confused
00:40:03.480 did she have evidence
00:40:04.880 she committed a crime 0.51
00:40:05.860 no
00:40:06.160 she was looking
00:40:06.820 for evidence
00:40:07.300 and she's not found it
00:40:09.180 but she's charged us
00:40:09.860 anyway
00:40:10.160 well she hasn't charged us
00:40:11.160 it's not a criminal
00:40:11.760 thing but she's 1.00
00:40:13.660 suing us
00:40:14.680 anyway
00:40:14.980 my impression
00:40:16.220 my guess
00:40:17.180 my guess
00:40:18.120 is that the Trump
00:40:19.100 administration
00:40:19.600 will begin to
00:40:21.240 ignore
00:40:21.860 the courts
00:40:23.320 in some cases
00:40:24.580 and people will say
00:40:26.360 that this is
00:40:27.080 the beginning
00:40:27.660 of fascism
00:40:29.080 and a takeover
00:40:29.860 of the destruction
00:40:31.100 of our legal system
00:40:31.760 and you know
00:40:33.160 that's a fair point
00:40:34.500 no it's not a fair point
00:40:36.400 well exactly
00:40:37.060 that's exactly
00:40:38.680 what I'm about to say
00:40:39.520 exactly
00:40:40.300 it has already
00:40:42.380 been destroyed
00:40:43.060 and when the
00:40:43.500 Attorney General
00:40:44.120 of the state
00:40:44.500 you don't live
00:40:45.180 or operate in
00:40:46.020 can destroy you
00:40:47.060 because she doesn't
00:40:47.660 like your opinions
00:40:48.480 then we don't have
00:40:49.240 a functioning
00:40:49.640 legal system
00:40:50.520 period
00:40:51.080 and this happened
00:40:51.840 before Trump
00:40:52.400 so I just want
00:40:53.440 to say that
00:40:53.940 the wonderful
00:40:54.640 I mean
00:40:54.980 well you know
00:40:56.320 one of the wonderful
00:40:57.180 things
00:40:57.560 back up a second
00:40:58.800 one wonderful thing
00:41:00.400 that has happened
00:41:00.980 within the last year
00:41:01.860 is that a very
00:41:02.740 enterprising journalist
00:41:03.700 actually dug up
00:41:04.880 a speech made
00:41:05.720 to the ADL
00:41:06.720 they had a conference
00:41:07.500 called
00:41:07.840 taking hate
00:41:08.920 to court
00:41:09.480 by Rick Sawyer
00:41:11.540 who is one of
00:41:12.260 Letitia James operatives
00:41:14.160 and he is the one
00:41:15.880 who's leading the charge
00:41:16.720 against us
00:41:17.380 and he said
00:41:19.340 to this conference
00:41:21.460 that hate speech
00:41:23.180 that's us
00:41:23.680 hate speech
00:41:24.540 is protected
00:41:25.440 by the First Amendment
00:41:26.340 but there are ways
00:41:27.700 around that
00:41:28.300 all you have to do
00:41:29.380 if it's a charity
00:41:30.700 and you have jurisdiction
00:41:31.780 is to start issuing
00:41:32.520 subpoenas
00:41:33.040 he said 0.99
00:41:33.660 it sucks 0.87
00:41:34.040 to be sued 0.81
00:41:34.640 just subpoenaed them
00:41:35.660 to death
00:41:36.100 and of course
00:41:37.720 that's exactly
00:41:38.180 what he's done to us
00:41:38.920 you know
00:41:40.000 they inflicted
00:41:40.660 over a million
00:41:41.260 nearly a million
00:41:41.820 and a half dollars
00:41:42.500 in out of pocket costs
00:41:43.640 for lawyers
00:41:44.100 and so on
00:41:44.640 let alone
00:41:45.320 the hundreds of hours
00:41:46.460 that lady had to spend 1.00
00:41:47.340 digging through documents
00:41:48.160 and so on
00:41:48.680 which meant that
00:41:49.260 she couldn't fundraise
00:41:50.120 or do any of the work
00:41:50.960 they just
00:41:51.960 destroy you
00:41:53.500 through the process 0.95
00:41:54.820 of the punishment
00:41:55.320 they just destroy you
00:41:56.060 that way
00:41:56.280 so he's actually
00:41:57.020 openly admitting this
00:41:58.060 so when we saw this
00:41:59.140 we thought
00:41:59.420 oh it's all over
00:42:00.120 they've obviously
00:42:00.900 admitted that
00:42:01.600 what they're doing
00:42:02.660 is not
00:42:03.020 it's political
00:42:03.500 it's not
00:42:03.880 because of some
00:42:04.820 regulatory concern
00:42:05.740 but we've been
00:42:07.000 totally unable
00:42:07.540 to get the federal court
00:42:08.400 to pay attention
00:42:08.960 to this
00:42:10.420 we're trying again
00:42:12.960 now we have
00:42:13.620 we have what they call
00:42:15.400 a 983 action
00:42:16.560 against Letitia James
00:42:18.200 and the operatives
00:42:18.980 personally
00:42:19.540 and we're trying
00:42:20.220 to raise
00:42:20.600 this first amendment
00:42:22.220 question there
00:42:23.020 but the courts
00:42:24.940 have been extremely
00:42:25.520 resistant to looking at it
00:42:26.800 I mean
00:42:27.980 if the attorney
00:42:29.500 and general
00:42:29.800 and her staff
00:42:30.400 are admitting
00:42:30.900 they're destroying you
00:42:32.260 because they disagree
00:42:33.120 with your opinions
00:42:34.140 it seems to me
00:42:35.860 that any federal court
00:42:37.120 would take that up
00:42:37.680 because that's a
00:42:38.200 foundational question
00:42:39.360 that's what we thought
00:42:40.780 but in fact
00:42:42.480 they didn't
00:42:42.920 the first time
00:42:45.160 we did it
00:42:45.540 the courts
00:42:46.060 simply dodged
00:42:46.640 on the technical issue
00:42:47.580 they came up
00:42:49.840 with a technical
00:42:50.320 excuse to dodge
00:42:51.080 in
00:42:51.260 and we have
00:42:53.380 we're trying again
00:42:54.260 now
00:42:54.620 but you know
00:42:55.820 we just have to
00:42:58.800 hope for the best
00:42:59.420 I think one of the things
00:43:00.740 that is clear to me
00:43:02.800 I mean
00:43:04.520 from looking at
00:43:06.740 our litigation experience
00:43:08.080 which is now
00:43:08.500 considerably
00:43:09.060 goes far beyond
00:43:09.960 this situation
00:43:11.500 and other cases
00:43:12.880 I'm aware of
00:43:13.480 is that
00:43:13.800 there seems to have been
00:43:14.820 some message
00:43:15.420 gone out from
00:43:16.020 Judge Central
00:43:16.760 that anything
00:43:18.520 that's quote
00:43:19.320 unquote
00:43:19.620 a white nationalist
00:43:20.520 has got to be 1.00
00:43:21.180 suppressed
00:43:21.520 by any means
00:43:22.160 necessary
00:43:22.640 in our case
00:43:25.300 the classic example
00:43:26.920 is
00:43:27.200 we had a hotel
00:43:28.840 cancelling us
00:43:29.560 in Colorado Springs
00:43:30.660 and they
00:43:32.480 well
00:43:34.220 Cora was not 0.91
00:43:34.860 with them
00:43:35.460 because they
00:43:36.300 paid up
00:43:36.820 the liquidated
00:43:37.360 damages
00:43:37.740 like men 0.69
00:43:38.320 and it was
00:43:38.640 a lot of money
00:43:39.280 but they cancelled
00:43:41.080 because the mayor
00:43:43.000 of Colorado Springs
00:43:43.880 who was a rhino
00:43:44.640 John Southers
00:43:45.460 had said he wouldn't
00:43:46.560 extend police protection
00:43:47.540 to the conference
00:43:48.320 when
00:43:49.100 you know
00:43:50.260 in other words
00:43:50.900 Antifa could go in
00:43:52.600 and
00:43:52.900 he wouldn't extend
00:43:54.320 police protection
00:43:55.380 yes that's right
00:43:56.320 now this is an issue
00:43:57.260 that's
00:43:57.480 he's threatening 1.00
00:43:57.780 to kill you 0.99
00:43:58.520 that's right 0.99
00:43:59.000 and who is this
00:44:00.200 his name was
00:44:00.860 John Southers
00:44:01.480 he was the mayor
00:44:02.100 he was the Republican
00:44:03.200 John Southers
00:44:04.540 the mayor of
00:44:05.260 Colorado Springs
00:44:06.160 basically threatened
00:44:08.100 to allow
00:44:08.660 mortal violence
00:44:09.800 against you
00:44:10.420 if you went
00:44:11.040 to his
00:44:11.500 that's right
00:44:12.100 city
00:44:12.320 now this is
00:44:13.160 an issue
00:44:13.820 which has been
00:44:14.740 extensively litigated
00:44:15.820 in the civil rights era
00:44:16.880 and the point
00:44:18.040 was made very clear
00:44:19.000 that by the courts
00:44:20.540 that the local authorities
00:44:22.660 the local governments
00:44:23.240 have to extend
00:44:24.160 protection to people's
00:44:25.400 First Amendment rights
00:44:26.360 in other words
00:44:27.780 in those days 0.89
00:44:28.580 the black demonstrators 0.70
00:44:30.320 would go into it 0.97
00:44:30.940 would have meetings
00:44:31.880 in the city
00:44:32.340 and the local
00:44:33.380 the local whites 0.70
00:44:34.480 would be angry about it
00:44:35.200 but those whites 0.98
00:44:35.700 had to be kept away 1.00
00:44:36.560 the blacks had to be 1.00
00:44:37.440 allowed to have 0.95
00:44:37.940 their meetings
00:44:38.460 well we litigated
00:44:40.460 this right up
00:44:41.120 to the Supreme Court
00:44:42.040 and which refused
00:44:43.700 to take the issue up
00:44:45.360 and there was
00:44:46.440 the appeals court
00:44:48.100 in Colorado
00:44:48.700 rejected us
00:44:49.680 and I believe
00:44:50.720 it had at least one
00:44:51.500 we had one good judge
00:44:52.660 there who said
00:44:53.980 this is obviously
00:44:54.660 attack on First Amendment
00:44:55.620 rights
00:44:56.060 but the other two
00:44:57.380 who I think
00:44:57.720 were Republican appointees
00:44:58.840 to vote against us
00:45:01.340 so we lost
00:45:02.560 and we weren't
00:45:04.200 able to
00:45:04.940 our initial lawyer
00:45:05.860 you know
00:45:06.020 civil rights litigation
00:45:07.120 is extremely damaging
00:45:08.220 if you're on the wrong side
00:45:09.100 of it
00:45:09.360 I mean there's
00:45:09.820 enormous damages involved
00:45:11.060 so it would
00:45:11.940 we would have
00:45:12.960 it would have been
00:45:15.200 a huge victory
00:45:16.060 and we would have
00:45:16.660 we would have
00:45:17.060 actually been made whole
00:45:17.900 in a very dramatic way
00:45:19.040 and our initial
00:45:20.940 lawyer in Colorado Springs
00:45:22.020 was so keen on this
00:45:23.100 it was so obvious
00:45:23.840 open and shut case
00:45:24.900 that he took it
00:45:25.780 on contingency
00:45:26.540 you know
00:45:26.900 but as soon as
00:45:28.060 he realized
00:45:28.460 that the city
00:45:29.200 was going to resist
00:45:29.920 he ran away
00:45:30.520 and we had to start
00:45:31.220 paying lawyers
00:45:32.600 to litigate him
00:45:33.820 well anyway
00:45:35.080 subsequently
00:45:36.540 there was a case
00:45:37.480 in before the
00:45:38.520 Supreme Court
00:45:39.280 New York
00:45:40.860 I guess
00:45:41.220 it was called
00:45:42.420 the Vullo
00:45:42.900 case
00:45:43.120 V-U-L-L-O 1.00
00:45:44.240 and this was a case
00:45:45.380 where the
00:45:46.000 communists
00:45:46.880 were putting pressure
00:45:48.080 on insurance companies
00:45:49.400 not to insure
00:45:50.560 the NRA
00:45:51.200 and the NRA
00:45:51.940 fought it
00:45:53.260 and it won
00:45:55.680 and in the
00:45:57.840 decision
00:45:59.520 Cadenti Jackson
00:46:02.780 says
00:46:03.240 the NRA's case
00:46:04.320 is strong
00:46:04.660 but it's
00:46:05.320 essentially
00:46:05.580 it's not as strong
00:46:06.860 as V-DAR's case
00:46:07.840 where they
00:46:09.120 where they were
00:46:09.820 denied police
00:46:11.480 where the state agency
00:46:12.680 you know
00:46:13.020 would basically
00:46:13.620 discriminate against
00:46:15.060 them on political
00:46:15.640 grounds
00:46:16.160 what's this
00:46:17.340 we never heard
00:46:18.460 about this
00:46:18.960 well it turns out
00:46:19.920 that 16 attorneys
00:46:20.980 general
00:46:21.440 had signed
00:46:22.200 an amicus
00:46:22.960 brief
00:46:23.760 saying that
00:46:24.700 the appeals
00:46:25.660 court in Colorado
00:46:26.340 had been wrong
00:46:27.160 to reject
00:46:28.820 our attempt
00:46:29.540 to sue
00:46:31.300 Colorado Springs
00:46:32.280 on a civil rights
00:46:33.420 theory
00:46:33.780 and that
00:46:34.700 it was wrong
00:46:35.520 for the following
00:46:36.000 reasons
00:46:36.400 and for that reason
00:46:37.060 the Supreme Court
00:46:37.620 should take up
00:46:38.320 the NRA's case
00:46:39.180 against
00:46:39.460 NRA v. Vullo
00:46:40.620 I guess it was called
00:46:41.440 and the Supreme Court
00:46:43.980 did take it up
00:46:44.740 and ruled
00:46:46.260 against the state
00:46:47.740 of New York
00:46:48.240 9-0
00:46:48.860 which of course
00:46:50.500 does us
00:46:50.940 absolutely no good
00:46:51.620 whatever
00:46:51.940 because we're out
00:46:52.800 all that money
00:46:53.440 and you know
00:46:54.980 our first
00:46:56.820 to memorize
00:46:57.260 they're not protected
00:46:57.960 I mean in other words
00:46:59.060 there's a real
00:46:59.540 determination
00:47:00.120 on the part
00:47:00.620 the NRA
00:47:01.260 is apparently
00:47:01.800 more partible
00:47:02.700 than we are
00:47:03.320 I'm a little bit
00:47:05.680 confused
00:47:06.680 conceptually
00:47:08.340 with
00:47:09.160 the idea
00:47:10.400 that
00:47:10.980 white self-awareness
00:47:12.540 is effectively
00:47:13.240 illegal
00:47:13.740 in the United States
00:47:14.920 whereas
00:47:15.360 ethnic self-awareness
00:47:17.160 in every other group
00:47:17.940 is encouraged
00:47:18.720 like
00:47:19.520 doesn't make any sense
00:47:20.960 speak for myself
00:47:22.220 I'd rather live
00:47:23.020 in a deracialized world 0.95
00:47:24.200 people think about it less
00:47:25.340 because it's
00:47:25.860 it does cause problems
00:47:27.080 but as long as
00:47:27.840 you're encouraging
00:47:28.720 identity politics
00:47:30.300 why do whites 0.99
00:47:31.100 not get to have it
00:47:31.960 what is the answer
00:47:33.140 well it's completely 0.95
00:47:33.860 completely hypocritical
00:47:35.160 it's because 0.95
00:47:36.000 the people running
00:47:36.800 the society 0.91
00:47:37.500 are anti-white
00:47:38.280 and they've been able
00:47:40.200 to persuade
00:47:41.220 or intimidate
00:47:42.180 the entire
00:47:43.040 legal system
00:47:44.220 to operate
00:47:45.120 in an anti-white way
00:47:46.400 anti-white in this case
00:47:48.740 really means
00:47:49.100 anti-American
00:47:49.680 I mean 0.95
00:47:50.040 because the whites 0.77
00:47:52.020 are Americans
00:47:52.660 that's who Americans are
00:47:54.580 you know
00:47:55.180 the people who signed
00:47:56.000 the Declaration of Independence
00:47:57.240 yeah
00:47:58.380 I did know that
00:48:00.140 and
00:48:00.860 the purpose
00:48:02.500 of the project
00:48:03.180 like big picture
00:48:04.300 again
00:48:04.700 I keep going back
00:48:05.260 to this
00:48:05.460 but I'm just
00:48:05.860 I am a little bit
00:48:06.540 confused
00:48:06.980 because this is
00:48:08.260 the defining
00:48:08.820 fact of our lives
00:48:10.880 is that whites 0.50
00:48:12.140 around the world 0.99
00:48:12.720 are being eliminated
00:48:13.640 and I would like
00:48:15.100 to know why
00:48:15.840 do you have any guesses?
00:48:17.960 As I say
00:48:18.560 I think
00:48:18.880 Tucker
00:48:19.360 I think it derives
00:48:20.160 from emotion
00:48:20.840 rather than
00:48:21.340 a kind of
00:48:21.760 rational
00:48:22.220 calculation
00:48:24.900 I mean
00:48:25.680 if you look at
00:48:26.160 what's happened
00:48:26.640 in South Africa
00:48:27.320 or for that
00:48:27.720 matter
00:48:27.900 in every big
00:48:29.020 American black city
00:48:30.060 that's majority black
00:48:32.000 I mean
00:48:32.580 they can't want it
00:48:33.600 to get into a situation
00:48:35.200 where the water
00:48:35.780 is putrid
00:48:37.200 and nothing works 0.96
00:48:38.460 and all that kind of thing
00:48:39.540 but they do
00:48:41.220 you know
00:48:42.920 the purpose of the system
00:48:43.820 is what it does
00:48:44.780 and the purpose of
00:48:46.320 you know
00:48:47.840 non-white government 0.98
00:48:48.680 is to produce 0.76
00:48:49.220 non-white government 0.98
00:48:50.040 and non-white results
00:48:51.700 unless of course
00:48:53.120 you're Chinese
00:48:53.680 because Singapore
00:48:54.760 is run Japanese
00:48:55.640 they're run very efficiently
00:48:57.280 they are
00:48:58.740 it's just interesting
00:48:59.660 that people move here
00:49:00.680 because it's a white country
00:49:01.920 and we
00:49:02.880 see to run it
00:49:03.440 into the ground
00:49:03.940 well all of us
00:49:04.920 benefit
00:49:05.360 white and non-white 0.77
00:49:06.460 benefit alike
00:49:07.720 from systems
00:49:08.640 created by whites 0.89
00:49:09.360 because
00:49:09.820 they're more humane
00:49:11.240 they're more just
00:49:12.680 they're more fair
00:49:13.240 and they're much more
00:49:14.700 efficient and cleaner
00:49:15.780 obviously
00:49:17.360 you know
00:49:18.280 I was looking
00:49:18.680 at an interview
00:49:19.160 if I can interrupt you
00:49:20.460 I was looking at an interview
00:49:21.200 somebody sent me
00:49:22.100 an interview
00:49:22.720 I did
00:49:23.000 for Forbes
00:49:23.760 magazine
00:49:24.780 with Milton Friedman
00:49:25.680 and I asked him
00:49:27.780 are there cultural
00:49:29.080 prerequisites for capitalism
00:49:30.380 and he said
00:49:31.840 yes
00:49:32.240 I think
00:49:32.660 and as you know
00:49:33.620 he's a very
00:49:34.080 fire-breathing libertarian
00:49:35.340 but he actually
00:49:36.360 thought about this question
00:49:37.520 and he said
00:49:38.440 that
00:49:38.700 you know
00:49:40.100 he said
00:49:40.340 capitalism
00:49:40.900 has really only ever worked
00:49:42.320 in English-speaking countries
00:49:43.860 he said
00:49:44.380 I don't know why
00:49:45.040 this is so
00:49:46.080 but the fact
00:49:46.660 has to be admitted
00:49:47.360 there's some kind
00:49:48.900 of a cultural
00:49:49.500 underpinning
00:49:50.240 for capitalism
00:49:51.640 I sometimes
00:49:53.180 what economists
00:49:53.940 call a metamarket
00:49:54.940 a framework
00:49:55.380 where the market
00:49:56.060 operates
00:49:56.580 so the question is
00:49:58.680 why are these capitalists
00:49:59.860 bring it
00:50:00.820 you know
00:50:01.840 why is the chamber
00:50:02.700 of commerce
00:50:03.240 suing to
00:50:04.000 keep the H1B 0.99
00:50:05.560 flow coming
00:50:06.240 when they know
00:50:07.820 it's going to
00:50:08.220 when it's obviously
00:50:09.220 going to produce people
00:50:09.980 who don't do it
00:50:10.580 like Mandami
00:50:11.220 who don't
00:50:12.040 support capitalism
00:50:13.140 and in fact hate it
00:50:13.920 what are the capitalists
00:50:14.980 doing
00:50:15.300 well they're doing
00:50:15.800 what Lenin said
00:50:16.420 they're saying
00:50:16.780 they will sell us
00:50:17.520 the rope
00:50:17.920 by which
00:50:18.720 with which 0.79
00:50:19.100 we hang them 0.97
00:50:19.720 and I mean 0.99
00:50:21.920 that's demonstrable
00:50:22.860 it was true 0.69
00:50:23.660 in 1917
00:50:24.320 it's true
00:50:25.300 in 2026
00:50:26.320 do you think
00:50:28.380 it's the product
00:50:29.000 of short term thinking
00:50:30.100 oh in the case
00:50:32.020 in the case
00:50:32.640 of business people
00:50:33.640 of course it is
00:50:34.300 the malign influence
00:50:35.620 of the Wall Street Journal
00:50:36.280 editorial page
00:50:37.060 a whole generation
00:50:38.020 of business people
00:50:39.980 actually believe
00:50:40.460 all this nonsense
00:50:41.080 it's very hard
00:50:41.900 to get out
00:50:43.360 of their heads
00:50:43.940 because they're
00:50:45.240 never allowed
00:50:45.820 I mean
00:50:46.160 they're never allowed
00:50:46.880 criticism of immigration
00:50:47.780 on the editorial page
00:50:49.420 so you've referred
00:50:50.880 repeatedly to the
00:50:51.520 Wall Street Journal
00:50:52.120 and also to HarperCollins
00:50:53.440 both of them
00:50:53.900 are owned
00:50:54.160 by the Murdoch family
00:50:55.080 right
00:50:55.440 what's been your
00:50:56.820 experience with the Murdochs
00:50:57.960 well you know
00:50:58.680 I spent
00:51:03.380 well over a year
00:51:05.040 working for Rupert
00:51:06.260 in I think
00:51:07.440 that's 1990
00:51:08.340 on a ghost
00:51:10.020 in his autobiography
00:51:11.000 which was never published
00:51:13.200 for various reasons
00:51:14.300 he changed his mind
00:51:14.940 about it
00:51:15.360 but I have to say
00:51:16.400 he was extraordinarily
00:51:17.260 generous to me personally
00:51:18.440 and he continued
00:51:19.040 to be extraordinarily
00:51:19.680 generous
00:51:20.060 until very recently
00:51:22.180 when
00:51:22.560 I guess
00:51:24.720 I had been on the payroll
00:51:26.140 quietly for a very long time
00:51:27.780 and they dropped me
00:51:28.440 when you came under attack
00:51:30.000 because somebody
00:51:31.220 looked into
00:51:32.760 people on the payroll
00:51:33.720 and they found
00:51:34.220 that this thought
00:51:34.800 criminal's on the payroll
00:51:35.700 so
00:51:37.100 at that point
00:51:39.160 I was dropped
00:51:39.700 but he's always
00:51:41.020 personally
00:51:41.500 been extraordinarily
00:51:42.040 generous to me
00:51:42.780 that is my experience
00:51:44.060 with Rupert Murdoch
00:51:44.880 and you know
00:51:45.600 that's not the case
00:51:46.380 with a lot of these characters
00:51:47.680 it's not
00:51:48.260 a lot of these
00:51:48.660 people like
00:51:49.540 Robert Maxwell
00:51:50.120 and so on
00:51:50.660 I remember Rupert
00:51:51.240 tell me once
00:51:51.820 that he thought
00:51:52.780 that Maxwell
00:51:53.260 Maxwell
00:51:53.600 as you know
00:51:54.200 fell off his yacht
00:51:55.780 off the Canary Islands
00:51:58.260 and was found dead
00:51:59.720 Rupert's theory was 1.00
00:52:00.960 this guy is such a jerk 1.00
00:52:03.240 that the crew 1.00
00:52:04.660 probably couldn't
00:52:05.120 stand him anymore
00:52:05.840 that is one theory
00:52:07.080 that is one theory
00:52:08.460 his lawyer told me
00:52:09.800 that he was murdered
00:52:10.380 by the Israelis
00:52:11.700 for whom he worked
00:52:12.460 I don't know the truth
00:52:13.720 of it
00:52:13.920 but he certainly
00:52:14.340 had a lot of enemies
00:52:15.160 and a lot of suspects
00:52:15.980 in that crime
00:52:16.580 but I mean
00:52:17.380 he was personal
00:52:17.940 and that's not the case
00:52:19.260 with Rupert
00:52:19.520 he's not cruel
00:52:20.200 he's not vindictive
00:52:21.160 Rupert is one of the most
00:52:22.040 personally gracious people
00:52:23.820 I've ever met in my life
00:52:24.860 I mean he has perfect manners
00:52:26.500 he's truly Anglo
00:52:27.580 in that way
00:52:28.260 and I never had a bad time
00:52:30.900 with him
00:52:31.120 always agree
00:52:31.600 even when he fired me
00:52:32.480 I talked to him after
00:52:33.380 he couldn't have been nicer
00:52:34.480 so I strongly agree
00:52:36.200 with your assessment
00:52:36.800 but he kept you
00:52:38.420 on the payroll
00:52:39.000 for decades
00:52:39.960 yeah
00:52:41.480 so I had five children
00:52:44.360 born on his health care
00:52:46.040 I had some born
00:52:47.240 on his health care too
00:52:48.400 God bless you Rupert Murdoch
00:52:51.600 it was very good
00:52:54.380 I mean
00:52:54.580 no it's
00:52:55.260 I mean
00:52:55.820 I don't know
00:52:56.700 the truth should be told
00:52:57.540 good and bad
00:52:58.200 so essentially
00:52:59.280 I was a consultant
00:52:59.920 and he didn't
00:53:01.080 consult me at all
00:53:02.020 because of course
00:53:03.840 I would have told him
00:53:04.380 to do the exact opposite
00:53:05.340 of what he was actually
00:53:05.940 but I have no complaints
00:53:10.280 about Rupert Murdoch
00:53:10.940 yes
00:53:11.280 no I
00:53:11.720 I just want to say out loud
00:53:13.320 I agree with you 100%
00:53:14.500 through much experience
00:53:15.380 25 years
00:53:16.000 so but it does
00:53:17.680 it does raise the question
00:53:19.600 as it does with Bill Buckley
00:53:20.680 then
00:53:21.940 you know
00:53:22.820 Rupert has great personal decency
00:53:24.720 that I
00:53:26.640 and I've seen it
00:53:27.320 but his
00:53:28.880 the editorial product
00:53:30.300 is
00:53:31.360 aggressively opposed to American
00:53:34.560 basic American interests
00:53:35.640 so like
00:53:36.040 what is that
00:53:36.820 this guy likes America
00:53:38.080 he treats people
00:53:39.100 around him well
00:53:40.040 there's a lot
00:53:41.200 good to say about Rupert
00:53:42.600 but
00:53:42.900 the Wall Street Journal
00:53:44.660 the New York Post
00:53:45.380 Harper Collins
00:53:46.000 like all of them
00:53:46.560 are engaged
00:53:47.140 in a very aggressive
00:53:48.100 campaign against
00:53:49.280 America's interests
00:53:51.200 so why
00:53:51.980 why is that
00:53:53.180 do you know
00:53:53.640 well I think
00:53:55.280 he handed over
00:53:56.720 the sort of intellectual
00:53:58.180 the thinking part
00:54:00.320 of
00:54:00.820 news corporation
00:54:03.740 or 21st century
00:54:04.920 Fox
00:54:05.220 whatever it's called
00:54:06.560 now
00:54:06.860 to the neoconservatives
00:54:08.560 and so he took on
00:54:09.620 a lot of neoconservative
00:54:10.440 baggage at that point
00:54:11.460 I mean they used to run
00:54:12.320 an editorial every year
00:54:13.620 saying
00:54:14.100 there ought to be
00:54:15.400 a constitutional amendment
00:54:16.440 there shall be open borders
00:54:17.760 you know
00:54:18.560 I mean 0.97
00:54:19.580 it was really lunatic 0.95
00:54:20.420 and I believe 0.98
00:54:23.140 that's still the case
00:54:23.960 but why would he do that
00:54:26.140 first of all
00:54:28.800 because they're very good
00:54:29.640 they're extremely active
00:54:30.760 full of ideas
00:54:31.800 full of energy
00:54:32.520 they were extremely good
00:54:33.880 in the Cold War
00:54:34.580 they were
00:54:35.820 that's correct
00:54:36.440 you know
00:54:37.040 but that was then
00:54:37.860 this is now
00:54:38.400 and they just simply
00:54:39.120 haven't made the transition
00:54:40.600 but that's a major reason
00:54:42.440 I know Oswee's operating
00:54:43.760 in New York
00:54:44.500 and you know
00:54:45.280 he was under a lot of
00:54:45.980 suspicion there
00:54:47.300 and has been
00:54:49.080 you know
00:54:49.720 he had to show
00:54:51.420 what he was
00:54:52.220 what Gore Vidal
00:54:53.480 called once
00:54:54.120 an okay guy
00:54:54.980 and he's showing that
00:54:57.220 it's genuine though
00:54:59.820 with Rupert
00:55:00.200 I remember once
00:55:00.780 talking to him about
00:55:02.040 why he was so pro
00:55:04.000 the initial Iraq war
00:55:06.100 the Gulf War
00:55:06.900 and he said
00:55:08.640 well you know
00:55:09.580 it goes back to
00:55:10.820 it goes back to my father
00:55:12.400 and Gallipoli
00:55:13.180 you know
00:55:13.640 his father played
00:55:14.360 a major role
00:55:15.120 in discrediting
00:55:17.100 the Gallipoli expedition
00:55:18.000 which was this attack
00:55:18.980 orchestrated by
00:55:19.960 Winston Churchill
00:55:20.920 they're trying to
00:55:21.780 break through
00:55:22.200 the Dardanelles
00:55:22.840 to get to Russia
00:55:23.580 to help Russia
00:55:24.140 join the war
00:55:24.840 he said
00:55:25.780 so I'm just
00:55:26.760 I guess I'm just
00:55:27.440 basically anti-Arab
00:55:28.520 and I said
00:55:29.320 those aren't Arabs
00:55:30.080 the Turks
00:55:30.700 well exactly
00:55:31.620 exactly
00:55:33.240 they're all the same
00:55:35.560 yeah the Ottoman Empire
00:55:36.440 is gone
00:55:36.960 and they've done
00:55:37.940 an enormous amount
00:55:38.680 of business
00:55:39.160 in the Gulf
00:55:39.800 with Arabs
00:55:40.620 who helped finance
00:55:41.800 his companies
00:55:42.740 so
00:55:43.160 it's kind of a strange
00:55:44.420 answer
00:55:44.640 his father was a
00:55:45.320 famous journalist
00:55:45.840 in Australia
00:55:46.280 who broke the news
00:55:47.120 of the disaster
00:55:47.660 at Gallipoli
00:55:48.200 and he was very
00:55:49.880 proud of that
00:55:50.500 but
00:55:51.940 that's not much
00:55:53.040 of an answer
00:55:53.700 is it
00:55:55.640 well you're doing
00:55:56.820 better than I do
00:55:57.360 I don't know
00:55:58.220 I just
00:55:59.020 it's
00:55:59.360 you know
00:56:00.340 he said
00:56:00.620 such an effect
00:56:01.220 on the world
00:56:01.920 and on my life
00:56:02.960 and as I said
00:56:04.520 five times
00:56:04.900 I've always liked him
00:56:05.680 and still do
00:56:06.220 but it does
00:56:06.880 it's a mystery
00:56:07.540 somebody said to me
00:56:07.740 once
00:56:07.900 one of his
00:56:08.420 henchmen in Australia
00:56:12.180 said to me
00:56:12.720 that Rupert
00:56:15.260 is a businessman
00:56:15.940 who wants to be
00:56:16.600 a journalist
00:56:17.240 and his father
00:56:18.320 is a journalist
00:56:18.800 who wants to be
00:56:19.240 a businessman
00:56:19.680 because he did
00:56:20.720 found a published
00:56:21.760 empire in Australia
00:56:22.700 Sir Keith Murdoch
00:56:23.940 I think there's a lot
00:56:25.020 in that
00:56:25.380 I mean I think
00:56:26.220 that
00:56:26.520 you and I
00:56:30.400 are ideologues
00:56:31.080 professional ideologues
00:56:32.220 but Rupert is not
00:56:32.760 a professional ideologues
00:56:33.360 he's somebody
00:56:34.280 who spends all
00:56:35.240 of his time
00:56:35.600 looking at numbers
00:56:36.340 he's a fantastic
00:56:37.160 memory for numbers
00:56:37.980 he knows all
00:56:38.780 I can never
00:56:39.800 remember any phone numbers
00:56:40.700 he remembers
00:56:41.100 every phone number
00:56:41.740 he's ever dialed
00:56:42.500 you know
00:56:43.240 and running
00:56:45.660 an operation
00:56:46.400 like his
00:56:48.120 it requires
00:56:48.740 a tremendous
00:56:49.260 attention to detail
00:56:50.660 and a tremendous
00:56:51.200 application
00:56:51.940 to going over
00:56:54.120 pages and pages
00:56:54.980 and pages of figures
00:56:55.780 and I don't know
00:56:57.060 that he spends
00:56:57.360 a great deal of time
00:56:57.960 thinking about politics
00:56:58.920 except in a
00:56:59.820 sporting sense
00:57:00.820 he likes to be
00:57:01.560 he likes
00:57:02.380 he likes to be
00:57:03.820 backing winners
00:57:05.220 and winning elections
00:57:08.120 and that kind of thing
00:57:08.800 but then he likes
00:57:09.260 going to Australian
00:57:10.060 football matches too
00:57:10.940 so I think
00:57:12.500 it's kind of
00:57:12.860 a similar thing
00:57:13.520 that is a very
00:57:14.420 smart analysis
00:57:15.240 I think you're
00:57:15.840 I think you're
00:57:16.340 exactly
00:57:16.700 I think you just
00:57:17.360 answered the question
00:57:18.100 he's outsourced
00:57:19.620 a lot of
00:57:20.320 the thinking
00:57:21.660 to others
00:57:22.580 it's transactional
00:57:23.640 he's not
00:57:24.420 tightly wedded
00:57:25.960 to
00:57:26.220 ideological details
00:57:28.280 at all
00:57:28.760 but he's really
00:57:30.800 allowed the
00:57:31.340 Wall Street Journal
00:57:31.860 editorial page
00:57:32.660 to become a force
00:57:33.500 of destruction
00:57:34.100 well I have to
00:57:35.320 admit it's many
00:57:36.000 years since I've
00:57:36.500 bothered to read
00:57:37.000 the Wall Street Journal
00:57:37.420 yeah me too
00:57:38.000 I rely on people
00:57:39.680 sending me things
00:57:40.620 and they don't
00:57:41.900 send much from
00:57:42.460 the Wall Street Journal
00:57:43.160 or for that matter
00:57:45.160 from National Review
00:57:45.940 very rarely seen
00:57:47.320 is National Review
00:57:48.220 still in existence
00:57:49.120 apparently so
00:57:52.680 it has the
00:57:53.440 Republican
00:57:54.020 establishment to support
00:57:55.940 it's like
00:57:58.180 Lindsey Graham
00:57:59.120 and Ted Cruz
00:57:59.860 and what
00:58:00.640 do you know
00:58:01.060 the editor
00:58:01.460 of National Review
00:58:02.220 I have the
00:58:03.680 you mean Rich Lowry
00:58:05.020 he's gone for
00:58:05.840 some time now
00:58:06.380 hasn't he
00:58:06.760 hasn't he
00:58:07.420 hasn't he been
00:58:07.880 done if somebody
00:58:08.840 else
00:58:09.080 I have the faintest
00:58:10.140 idea
00:58:10.400 but did you know
00:58:11.340 him
00:58:11.640 you know
00:58:13.360 I sat in rooms
00:58:14.500 with him
00:58:14.940 and I went to
00:58:16.800 Bocchus Pods
00:58:17.460 with him
00:58:17.680 I have absolutely
00:58:18.160 no memory of him
00:58:18.700 at all
00:58:19.080 he never said
00:58:19.800 anything at all
00:58:20.460 of significance
00:58:22.160 and I think that's
00:58:22.800 why Bill hired him
00:58:24.800 because he was
00:58:25.120 completely malleable
00:58:25.920 yeah I think
00:58:27.200 that sounds
00:58:27.640 that sounds right
00:58:28.520 sad
00:58:28.960 how much
00:58:29.840 has been lost
00:58:31.160 so
00:58:31.600 speaking of lost
00:58:32.840 what happened
00:58:33.740 in the end
00:58:34.640 and I interrupted
00:58:35.660 your story
00:58:36.060 my apologies
00:58:36.560 but to VDR
00:58:37.540 VDR is suspended
00:58:39.560 suspended in
00:58:40.420 July of 2024
00:58:41.940 because we just
00:58:42.460 ran out of money
00:58:43.100 the foundation
00:58:44.340 is still in existence
00:58:45.200 and Lydia is still
00:58:46.960 she's not paid 0.99
00:58:48.880 but she's still 1.00
00:58:49.500 she's still
00:58:50.400 paying lawyers
00:58:51.200 and dealing with
00:58:52.160 the legal situation
00:58:53.540 which continues to
00:58:54.300 ramify to say
00:58:55.160 we're being sued
00:58:55.820 personally
00:58:56.320 and as a foundation
00:58:58.520 on what grounds
00:58:59.380 are you being sued
00:59:00.140 oh there's a whole
00:59:00.740 bunch of things
00:59:01.160 fundamentally technical
00:59:02.300 issues to do
00:59:03.520 with
00:59:03.760 to do with
00:59:05.500 whether we
00:59:06.660 had the right
00:59:08.160 number of directors
00:59:08.740 vote on the right
00:59:09.460 number of things
00:59:10.060 it's all paperwork
00:59:10.860 stuff
00:59:11.300 it's all stuff
00:59:12.520 that could 0.68
00:59:12.960 would normally
00:59:13.820 resolve with a
00:59:14.620 phone call
00:59:15.140 and possibly
00:59:15.840 refiling
00:59:16.520 and stuff like
00:59:17.140 that
00:59:18.100 they've not found
00:59:18.960 any evidence
00:59:19.580 of
00:59:20.180 misappropriation
00:59:22.320 of funds
00:59:22.840 and in fact
00:59:23.280 we move to
00:59:23.840 dismiss on this
00:59:24.540 basis
00:59:24.900 that although
00:59:25.880 they huff and puff
00:59:26.660 a lot
00:59:27.080 I mean there's
00:59:27.820 60 odd pages
00:59:28.560 of rhetoric
00:59:29.100 but the actual
00:59:29.660 charges
00:59:30.200 they haven't got
00:59:31.440 anything
00:59:31.820 who is suing you
00:59:33.540 this is New York
00:59:34.260 New York State
00:59:34.860 so they're using
00:59:36.360 tax dollars still
00:59:37.340 oh yes
00:59:37.940 that's right
00:59:38.340 enormous
00:59:38.760 they've spent
00:59:40.740 a great deal
00:59:41.260 of money on this
00:59:41.900 they also
00:59:42.880 very weirdly
00:59:44.100 subpoenaed
00:59:45.180 Facebook
00:59:45.600 for all our
00:59:46.180 records of
00:59:46.780 all our dealings
00:59:47.840 with Facebook
00:59:48.400 well Facebook
00:59:49.480 banned us
00:59:50.040 in 2020
00:59:50.680 as part of
00:59:51.240 Zuckerberg's
00:59:51.780 campaign
00:59:52.220 to defeat
00:59:52.780 Donald Trump
00:59:53.420 they thought
00:59:53.860 we were
00:59:54.800 pro-Trump
00:59:55.560 so we actually
00:59:56.580 hadn't had any
00:59:57.560 deals with Facebook
00:59:58.200 for more than
00:59:58.680 two years
00:59:59.140 when they came
00:59:59.620 after us
01:00:00.760 but nevertheless
01:00:04.000 they got all
01:00:04.600 these records
01:00:05.000 off of Facebook
01:00:06.280 but they've done
01:00:08.160 nothing with them
01:00:09.100 because of course
01:00:09.820 there's nothing
01:00:10.140 there
01:00:10.520 I think they
01:00:12.140 genuinely thought
01:00:13.500 that they would
01:00:13.880 find that we
01:00:14.420 were accepting
01:00:14.840 money from the
01:00:15.360 Russians
01:00:15.660 to run
01:00:18.280 bat farms
01:00:18.900 if you remember
01:00:19.980 that was the
01:00:20.420 allegation
01:00:20.940 with interference
01:00:22.720 in 2016
01:00:24.200 that the Russians
01:00:24.820 were financing
01:00:25.500 tiny little
01:00:26.440 Facebook pages
01:00:27.420 and that's
01:00:28.560 how they were
01:00:29.200 manipulating the
01:00:30.040 election
01:00:30.400 I think they
01:00:31.980 genuinely believe
01:00:32.580 that
01:00:32.840 I think one of
01:00:33.540 the things
01:00:33.740 about Democrats
01:00:34.360 is that they
01:00:34.840 really do believe
01:00:35.440 their own propaganda
01:00:36.120 they do think
01:00:38.640 that the middle
01:00:39.460 America is full
01:00:40.080 of people wearing
01:00:40.640 pointed hats
01:00:41.180 we'll be at war
01:00:41.860 with Qatar
01:00:42.440 by the end
01:00:43.080 just because
01:00:43.500 they've talked
01:00:44.000 themselves into
01:00:44.820 believing Qatar 0.87
01:00:46.100 secretly controls
01:00:47.060 America
01:00:47.340 as they did
01:00:47.800 with Russia
01:00:48.220 then we went
01:00:48.660 to war with
01:00:49.020 Russia
01:00:49.240 and we're
01:00:49.500 still at war
01:00:50.020 with Russia
01:00:50.440 over there
01:00:50.920 right
01:00:51.640 the difficulty
01:00:52.680 with this
01:00:53.140 is that the
01:00:53.480 Republicans
01:00:53.800 believe the
01:00:54.220 Democrat
01:00:54.500 propaganda
01:00:54.900 too
01:00:55.380 which is
01:00:56.260 why they
01:00:56.620 won't
01:00:56.920 for example
01:00:57.560 appeal
01:00:58.840 to the white
01:00:59.800 vote
01:01:00.100 one of the
01:01:00.460 things we
01:01:00.740 did at
01:01:01.100 Vidale
01:01:01.440 is we
01:01:02.360 discussed
01:01:03.740 and documented
01:01:04.280 what we call
01:01:04.720 the sailors
01:01:05.180 strategy
01:01:05.660 as opposed
01:01:06.300 to the
01:01:06.540 Roeve
01:01:06.740 strategy
01:01:07.200 in 2000
01:01:09.680 Karl Roeve
01:01:10.400 was saying
01:01:10.800 that the
01:01:11.100 Republicans
01:01:11.400 have got
01:01:11.680 to do
01:01:11.960 outreach
01:01:12.320 to minorities
01:01:12.980 and
01:01:14.420 it makes
01:01:15.900 no sense
01:01:16.380 statistically
01:01:16.780 because
01:01:17.440 I think
01:01:17.840 George
01:01:18.740 Bush
01:01:19.020 George
01:01:19.540 W.
01:01:22.520 Bush
01:01:22.640 got
01:01:22.900 like
01:01:23.400 51%
01:01:24.060 of the
01:01:24.260 white
01:01:24.420 vote
01:01:24.740 it's
01:01:24.920 appalling
01:01:25.300 performance
01:01:25.920 so
01:01:26.540 Steve
01:01:27.040 Saylor 0.98
01:01:27.400 who's
01:01:27.560 one of
01:01:27.780 our
01:01:27.900 writers
01:01:28.180 who we've
01:01:28.560 had on
01:01:28.980 pointed out
01:01:29.880 that if
01:01:30.160 they could
01:01:30.360 just
01:01:30.560 increase
01:01:30.980 that
01:01:31.260 proportion
01:01:31.920 of the
01:01:32.720 white
01:01:32.880 vote
01:01:33.080 to what
01:01:33.420 his father
01:01:33.860 got
01:01:34.200 which was
01:01:34.540 like
01:01:34.660 57-58%
01:01:35.900 that would
01:01:36.820 swamp and
01:01:37.300 overwhelm
01:01:37.780 any possible
01:01:38.540 conceivable
01:01:39.720 gain among
01:01:40.400 minority
01:01:40.940 voters
01:01:41.280 so we were
01:01:41.780 saying
01:01:42.060 you should
01:01:42.920 go for
01:01:43.240 the white
01:01:43.560 vote
01:01:43.880 and now
01:01:45.940 this caused
01:01:46.440 a great deal
01:01:47.100 of trouble
01:01:47.480 for us
01:01:48.280 I remember
01:01:48.580 I got a letter
01:01:49.000 from an email
01:01:49.700 from Jude
01:01:50.120 Wineski
01:01:50.600 do you remember
01:01:51.100 Jude Wineski
01:01:51.660 he said
01:01:53.220 Peter you've
01:01:53.780 gone too
01:01:54.140 far
01:01:54.600 in other
01:01:55.600 words
01:01:55.940 appeal to
01:01:57.040 the white
01:01:57.280 vote is 0.64
01:01:57.580 not allowed
01:01:58.320 and look
01:01:59.840 it's just a
01:02:00.320 question
01:02:00.600 arithmetic
01:02:01.420 you know
01:02:02.380 there's more
01:02:02.880 of them
01:02:03.180 than there
01:02:03.440 are of
01:02:03.660 minorities
01:02:04.200 in any
01:02:05.520 case
01:02:05.700 to this
01:02:06.680 day
01:02:06.960 the Republicans
01:02:07.400 have still
01:02:07.800 not done
01:02:08.540 that
01:02:08.700 they've
01:02:08.960 done it
01:02:09.200 why was
01:02:09.740 Jude
01:02:10.000 Wineski
01:02:10.420 mad
01:02:10.940 Jude was
01:02:13.340 Jude was
01:02:13.780 a liberal
01:02:14.060 you know
01:02:14.400 way back
01:02:15.200 when he was
01:02:15.560 a liberal
01:02:15.760 Democrat
01:02:16.120 and he still
01:02:16.540 had a lot
01:02:16.940 of these
01:02:17.340 reflexes
01:02:19.440 but it was
01:02:20.700 just thought
01:02:21.440 to be
01:02:21.820 people just
01:02:22.300 got very
01:02:22.600 emotional
01:02:22.900 about it
01:02:23.600 you know
01:02:24.080 they think
01:02:27.500 it's somehow
01:02:27.920 illegitimate
01:02:28.660 and they still
01:02:29.160 do think
01:02:29.580 it's illegitimate
01:02:30.260 for example
01:02:30.900 so we see
01:02:31.520 in Virginia
01:02:32.080 in this
01:02:33.000 last election
01:02:33.680 you know
01:02:34.820 this
01:02:35.540 Youngkin
01:02:36.320 who's a
01:02:37.120 complete
01:02:37.500 cipher
01:02:37.900 as far as
01:02:38.340 Wall Street
01:02:38.800 cipher
01:02:39.160 as far as
01:02:39.600 I can see
01:02:40.140 chooses
01:02:40.780 has his
01:02:41.600 success
01:02:41.900 in the
01:02:42.260 gubernatorial
01:02:42.800 race
01:02:43.140 a candidate
01:02:46.560 who was
01:02:46.880 one
01:02:47.180 an immigrant
01:02:47.640 to a
01:02:48.500 woman 0.99
01:02:48.740 and three
01:02:49.360 black
01:02:49.820 so he's 0.99
01:02:50.500 a black
01:02:50.760 Jamaican
01:02:51.080 immigrant
01:02:51.380 and this
01:02:51.880 is how
01:02:52.080 he's going
01:02:52.300 to appeal
01:02:52.600 to the
01:02:52.840 white vote
01:02:53.260 they're going
01:02:53.540 to get
01:02:53.720 people in
01:02:54.080 the halls
01:02:55.160 of southwest
01:02:55.600 Virginia
01:02:56.500 out to
01:02:57.340 vote
01:02:57.640 for this 0.95
01:02:58.340 black 0.60
01:02:59.200 immigrant 1.00
01:02:59.600 it's ridiculous 0.99
01:03:00.460 and of course 0.99
01:03:00.960 they got a
01:03:01.320 terrible share
01:03:02.060 of the
01:03:02.220 white vote
01:03:02.540 it was like
01:03:02.820 53%
01:03:03.420 and that's
01:03:03.800 why they
01:03:04.100 lost
01:03:04.360 but they
01:03:05.040 would rather
01:03:05.420 lose
01:03:05.940 than make
01:03:07.160 a full
01:03:07.680 out appeal
01:03:08.120 to white
01:03:08.400 I think
01:03:08.700 the tell
01:03:09.260 was in
01:03:10.180 the ability
01:03:10.900 so this
01:03:11.400 was in
01:03:11.760 I'm not
01:03:13.100 saying a
01:03:13.400 bad
01:03:13.580 person
01:03:14.020 but
01:03:14.460 Winsome
01:03:16.140 Sears
01:03:16.460 was not
01:03:17.200 a good
01:03:18.240 candidate
01:03:18.600 it was
01:03:18.880 kind of
01:03:19.240 an incapable
01:03:19.760 candidate 0.77
01:03:20.500 and hard
01:03:22.040 to deal
01:03:22.960 with
01:03:23.180 so
01:03:23.540 like they
01:03:25.080 chose her 0.64
01:03:25.740 because she 0.99
01:03:26.500 was black
01:03:27.200 despite the 0.55
01:03:28.720 fact that she
01:03:29.260 wasn't good
01:03:29.820 at her job
01:03:30.520 I mean this
01:03:30.800 is epidemic
01:03:31.280 in the Republican
01:03:31.800 Party
01:03:32.140 it's epidemic
01:03:32.640 in the country
01:03:33.340 they've chosen
01:03:33.740 so many
01:03:34.200 Republicans
01:03:34.700 in particular
01:03:35.240 they've chosen
01:03:35.640 so many
01:03:36.120 black candidates
01:03:36.600 they're about 0.90
01:03:36.920 to do it
01:03:37.160 here
01:03:37.360 in Florida
01:03:37.900 the next
01:03:39.740 governmental
01:03:40.060 candidate
01:03:40.480 is like 0.99
01:03:41.160 to black 0.94
01:03:41.540 unless 0.98
01:03:42.140 a miracle
01:03:43.280 occurs
01:03:43.800 why is that
01:03:45.520 they're just
01:03:47.040 pixelated
01:03:51.180 by this
01:03:51.680 transfixed
01:03:52.960 by this
01:03:53.460 I'm trying
01:03:54.620 to find
01:03:54.960 the right
01:03:55.260 word
01:03:55.580 hypnotized
01:03:57.000 by this
01:03:57.360 phenomenon
01:03:57.760 by the
01:03:58.700 whole race
01:03:59.120 question
01:03:59.380 race whips
01:04:00.220 is what it
01:04:00.500 comes down
01:04:00.880 to
01:04:01.020 they're just
01:04:02.220 so afraid
01:04:03.120 of being
01:04:03.340 called
01:04:03.560 racist
01:04:03.860 that they'd 0.85
01:04:04.300 rather lose 1.00
01:04:04.860 with a black 0.98
01:04:05.260 candidate 0.96
01:04:05.600 than run
01:04:07.580 a candidate
01:04:08.240 to appeals
01:04:08.780 to whites
01:04:09.720 Trump did
01:04:10.580 appeal to
01:04:11.040 whites
01:04:11.260 not enough 0.71
01:04:11.780 but he does
01:04:12.240 it in some
01:04:12.620 kind of
01:04:12.860 really implicit
01:04:13.500 way
01:04:13.880 if you actually
01:04:14.300 look at what
01:04:14.720 Trump said
01:04:15.420 in spite of
01:04:16.460 all the rhetoric
01:04:16.960 he's not said
01:04:18.040 anything that's
01:04:18.700 explicitly white
01:04:19.500 nationalist
01:04:19.880 or anything
01:04:20.340 I see no sign
01:04:21.480 that he's
01:04:21.800 a civic
01:04:22.540 nationalist
01:04:22.980 but for some
01:04:24.140 reason he's
01:04:24.620 made some
01:04:24.940 connection
01:04:25.420 I mean all
01:04:26.520 through West
01:04:27.000 Virginia
01:04:27.360 while Biden
01:04:29.020 was president
01:04:30.800 you would see
01:04:31.680 these signs
01:04:33.980 supporting Trump
01:04:35.560 and saying
01:04:36.500 very rude things
01:04:37.140 about Biden
01:04:37.740 and these are
01:04:39.000 outside trail
01:04:40.360 very rude things
01:04:41.180 about Biden
01:04:41.720 yeah
01:04:42.040 I mean you know
01:04:43.940 this is a poor
01:04:45.120 area
01:04:45.480 these run down
01:04:46.620 trail homes
01:04:47.380 that you see
01:04:47.700 with these Trump
01:04:48.280 signs on them
01:04:48.780 for some reason
01:04:49.580 Trump made a
01:04:50.120 connection with them
01:04:51.240 and it's eerie
01:04:53.020 now on the other
01:04:54.220 hand he also
01:04:54.720 made a disconnection
01:04:55.540 with the other side
01:04:56.180 so you get
01:04:56.680 this Trump
01:04:57.020 derangement
01:04:57.480 syndrome
01:04:57.840 but he was
01:04:58.800 able to
01:04:59.160 mobilize the
01:04:59.660 white voters
01:05:00.100 why do you
01:05:00.500 think that was
01:05:01.260 which part of
01:05:02.440 it
01:05:02.580 that he was
01:05:03.420 able
01:05:03.880 working class
01:05:05.220 whites
01:05:07.140 love Trump
01:05:09.040 Trump is
01:05:09.800 not a racist
01:05:10.800 I've never
01:05:11.960 seen any
01:05:12.780 sign of that
01:05:13.400 at all
01:05:13.960 and not a
01:05:14.720 white nationalist
01:05:15.400 at all
01:05:16.420 and hardly a
01:05:18.060 Christian
01:05:18.320 nationalist
01:05:18.860 but he
01:05:19.900 for some
01:05:20.500 reason had
01:05:21.320 an emotional
01:05:22.020 connection with
01:05:22.680 these voters
01:05:23.120 why do you
01:05:24.380 there's a concept
01:05:25.400 in sociology
01:05:26.700 called implicit
01:05:27.580 community
01:05:28.240 communities that
01:05:29.980 represent or
01:05:32.560 appeal to some
01:05:33.140 people without 0.96
01:05:33.980 actually saying
01:05:34.560 it explicitly
01:05:35.080 the classic
01:05:35.660 example with
01:05:36.400 NASCAR for
01:05:37.180 example
01:05:37.500 why is NASCAR
01:05:38.380 a white
01:05:39.240 stronghold
01:05:41.020 or everybody
01:05:41.760 watching NASCAR
01:05:42.440 is white
01:05:42.940 and the NASCAR
01:05:44.000 operatives
01:05:44.520 don't like this
01:05:45.940 they hate it
01:05:46.680 they constantly
01:05:47.460 trying to
01:05:47.780 diversify
01:05:48.340 Republican
01:05:49.120 Party is a
01:05:49.580 classic example
01:05:50.240 of this
01:05:50.800 without ever
01:05:52.180 doing anything
01:05:53.600 to deserve it
01:05:54.360 Republicans
01:05:55.480 have become
01:05:55.860 absolutely
01:05:56.140 unbeatable
01:05:56.480 in Virginia
01:05:56.920 and you
01:05:57.480 and I
01:05:57.680 both remember
01:05:58.300 when Democrats
01:05:59.620 were unbeatable
01:06:00.140 in Virginia
01:06:00.600 I forget
01:06:02.160 when the last
01:06:02.760 Republican
01:06:04.260 Democrat
01:06:06.600 to carry
01:06:06.940 West Virginia
01:06:07.480 was
01:06:07.660 but it
01:06:07.900 might have
01:06:08.180 been Clinton
01:06:09.920 and now
01:06:11.480 it's just
01:06:12.180 the Democrats
01:06:13.360 have ceased
01:06:13.740 to exist
01:06:14.160 in West Virginia
01:06:15.060 even though
01:06:15.560 this is a
01:06:15.840 very poor
01:06:16.240 state
01:06:16.580 Republicans
01:06:17.460 prevailed
01:06:17.900 simply by
01:06:18.560 virtue
01:06:18.820 of not being
01:06:19.320 Democrats
01:06:19.660 Bill Clinton
01:06:19.980 lost
01:06:20.420 California
01:06:21.080 in 92
01:06:21.900 and won
01:06:22.560 West Virginia
01:06:23.260 that's how
01:06:24.300 much has
01:06:24.640 changed
01:06:24.920 right
01:06:25.780 so
01:06:27.380 there's
01:06:28.740 something
01:06:28.920 that's
01:06:29.120 going on
01:06:29.460 at a very
01:06:29.820 deep
01:06:30.080 psychological
01:06:30.600 level
01:06:31.000 some kind
01:06:31.680 of implicit
01:06:32.660 signaling
01:06:33.740 it's baffling
01:06:35.280 now of course
01:06:37.200 he did say
01:06:37.860 you know
01:06:38.320 when he came
01:06:38.760 down the
01:06:39.100 elevator
01:06:39.440 and said
01:06:39.900 just a few
01:06:41.100 words about
01:06:41.660 Mexico
01:06:42.120 about Mexican
01:06:43.820 immigration
01:06:44.280 and never
01:06:45.340 looked back
01:06:45.820 so he obviously
01:06:46.580 struck a nerve
01:06:47.200 there
01:06:47.460 so he did
01:06:47.900 enough to
01:06:48.340 strike a nerve
01:06:48.900 simply by
01:06:49.460 raising
01:06:49.760 immigration
01:06:50.260 in this
01:06:50.560 rather
01:06:50.960 you know
01:06:53.520 I'm sure
01:06:54.800 it drives
01:06:55.100 Stephen Miller
01:06:55.560 crazy 0.77
01:06:56.020 incoherent
01:06:56.900 and peculiar
01:06:57.540 and if
01:06:57.900 he can't
01:06:58.340 forgets
01:06:58.760 his lines
01:06:59.140 and says
01:06:59.400 the wrong
01:06:59.700 thing
01:06:59.940 way that
01:07:00.340 Trump
01:07:00.600 does
01:07:00.940 talk about
01:07:01.860 immigration
01:07:02.380 but he did
01:07:04.080 raise it
01:07:04.740 and of course
01:07:05.140 until then
01:07:05.820 it was
01:07:06.200 it had been
01:07:06.980 driven out of
01:07:07.520 Republican
01:07:08.220 politics
01:07:08.660 completely
01:07:09.080 I know
01:07:09.540 we wrote
01:07:09.940 about it
01:07:10.340 for 16
01:07:11.580 years
01:07:11.660 you were
01:07:11.940 fired over
01:07:12.620 it
01:07:12.840 right
01:07:13.120 just
01:07:14.180 you know
01:07:14.680 there's
01:07:15.400 almost no
01:07:16.300 sign
01:07:16.680 that any
01:07:17.060 Republican
01:07:17.340 would pick
01:07:17.720 it up
01:07:18.040 but then
01:07:18.780 when he did
01:07:19.300 the dam
01:07:19.620 broke
01:07:19.880 and now
01:07:20.220 what a big
01:07:20.900 difference
01:07:21.380 I found
01:07:22.100 Tucker
01:07:23.660 is
01:07:24.220 if you speak
01:07:26.920 to grassroots
01:07:27.420 Republicans
01:07:28.040 as opposed
01:07:29.000 to elected
01:07:29.360 Republicans
01:07:29.920 the consensus
01:07:31.660 is overwhelming
01:07:32.160 that immigration 1.00
01:07:32.760 has got to be
01:07:33.260 ended
01:07:33.520 the consensus
01:07:34.900 is overwhelming
01:07:35.540 whereas
01:07:36.440 when I
01:07:37.320 got involved
01:07:38.180 in this
01:07:38.500 in the early
01:07:38.880 90s
01:07:39.680 a lot of
01:07:40.180 Republicans
01:07:40.480 never heard
01:07:41.020 of this
01:07:41.260 question
01:07:41.660 and they
01:07:42.240 would assume
01:07:42.700 for example
01:07:43.160 that immigrants 1.00
01:07:44.420 don't go on
01:07:45.540 welfare
01:07:45.800 to the same
01:07:46.280 extent
01:07:46.540 that native
01:07:46.960 born do
01:07:47.300 which is
01:07:47.560 completely wrong
01:07:48.180 it's completely
01:07:48.600 reversed
01:07:48.920 the truth
01:07:49.180 and it was
01:07:49.500 back then
01:07:49.980 it was obvious
01:07:50.640 that they were
01:07:50.940 going back
01:07:51.320 into welfare
01:07:52.120 in disproportionate
01:07:54.800 numbers
01:07:55.080 but people
01:07:55.620 didn't know
01:07:56.180 and the
01:07:57.180 Wall Street Journal
01:07:57.580 is not telling
01:07:58.100 them
01:07:58.320 well the
01:07:58.960 Wall Street Journal
01:07:59.320 still isn't
01:07:59.760 telling them
01:08:00.160 but they do
01:08:00.580 know now
01:08:01.040 and maybe
01:08:02.620 we played
01:08:02.980 a role
01:08:03.260 in that
01:08:03.480 well yeah
01:08:04.020 and it's
01:08:04.500 had
01:08:05.200 such a
01:08:06.800 complex
01:08:07.480 and degrading
01:08:08.620 effect on the
01:08:09.280 native population
01:08:10.180 it hasn't been
01:08:11.160 it's not just
01:08:11.820 a matter of
01:08:12.280 competition
01:08:12.760 in the job
01:08:13.240 market
01:08:13.600 or my
01:08:14.020 tech job
01:08:15.420 went to an
01:08:15.860 Indian
01:08:16.140 or something
01:08:16.600 it's way more
01:08:17.640 complicated than
01:08:18.320 that
01:08:18.500 and as
01:08:19.100 you know
01:08:20.140 immigrant communities
01:08:21.260 became totally
01:08:22.080 dependent on federal
01:08:22.900 benefits
01:08:23.560 it changed the
01:08:25.440 incentive structure
01:08:26.040 for native born
01:08:27.240 communities
01:08:27.760 and a lot of
01:08:28.300 them started
01:08:28.940 going on it
01:08:30.160 right
01:08:30.520 at higher rates
01:08:31.300 also
01:08:31.660 so it just
01:08:32.260 it created a vortex
01:08:33.600 that's hurt
01:08:34.100 everybody I think
01:08:35.120 especially the whites
01:08:36.000 where does it go
01:08:37.940 from here
01:08:38.760 the big thing
01:08:41.200 that has to
01:08:41.640 the next
01:08:42.040 if I was still
01:08:42.820 running VDR
01:08:43.440 and on my own
01:08:44.940 website
01:08:45.540 peterbrimmo.com
01:08:46.540 now
01:08:46.820 what I'm interested
01:08:48.860 in is legal
01:08:49.300 immigration
01:08:49.820 legal immigration
01:08:50.920 is still running
01:08:51.600 at a million a year
01:08:52.520 no
01:08:53.340 that puts
01:08:54.440 the fact
01:08:55.760 that the
01:08:56.240 foreign born
01:08:56.860 population
01:08:57.360 in the US
01:08:57.780 has fallen
01:08:58.340 by two and a
01:08:58.980 half million
01:08:59.520 in the last
01:09:00.820 and just joined
01:09:01.840 this year
01:09:02.260 that's an
01:09:02.600 extraordinary
01:09:03.100 number
01:09:03.540 I used to
01:09:04.380 track if you
01:09:04.940 dare
01:09:05.080 the foreign 0.60
01:09:05.520 born population
01:09:06.260 because it's
01:09:06.680 the way of
01:09:07.340 tracking the
01:09:08.440 impact of
01:09:09.100 immigration
01:09:09.500 it's very
01:09:10.400 rarely goes
01:09:11.020 negative
01:09:11.480 it went
01:09:11.980 negative
01:09:12.400 briefly
01:09:13.120 when Trump
01:09:14.660 first got in
01:09:15.340 because they
01:09:15.600 were frightened
01:09:16.020 of him
01:09:16.320 and a lot
01:09:16.660 of the
01:09:16.820 illegals 0.93
01:09:17.180 left
01:09:17.560 and then
01:09:18.100 towards the
01:09:18.580 end
01:09:18.820 before COVID
01:09:19.740 it was falling
01:09:20.440 because of
01:09:21.140 various
01:09:21.520 technical
01:09:22.580 executive action
01:09:23.560 measures
01:09:23.880 that Trump
01:09:24.300 had taken
01:09:24.660 the administration
01:09:25.280 had taken
01:09:25.680 to tighten
01:09:26.100 up on
01:09:26.460 both legal
01:09:27.940 immigration
01:09:28.220 and illegal
01:09:28.720 immigration
01:09:29.180 now
01:09:29.660 it's
01:09:30.160 two and a
01:09:30.800 half
01:09:30.960 million
01:09:31.220 gone
01:09:31.440 four and
01:09:31.880 two and a
01:09:32.160 half
01:09:32.280 million
01:09:32.620 foreign
01:09:33.260 population
01:09:33.900 even though
01:09:34.780 we know
01:09:35.160 a million
01:09:35.980 legal
01:09:37.840 immigrants
01:09:38.440 have come
01:09:38.780 in
01:09:38.900 90%
01:09:39.480 of them
01:09:39.700 colored
01:09:39.920 by the
01:09:40.220 way
01:09:40.360 only about
01:09:40.760 10%
01:09:41.220 white
01:09:41.600 so what
01:09:43.000 we really
01:09:43.340 need is an
01:09:43.760 immigration
01:09:44.060 moratorium
01:09:44.700 and I'm
01:09:46.520 delighted to
01:09:46.960 say there is
01:09:47.740 a bill
01:09:48.140 proposed by
01:09:49.180 Chip Roy
01:09:49.740 in the
01:09:51.320 house
01:09:51.760 called
01:09:54.020 the
01:09:54.700 PAWS
01:09:55.060 Act
01:09:55.700 calling for
01:09:58.200 moratorium
01:10:00.000 and there's
01:10:00.360 several other
01:10:00.760 very interesting
01:10:01.240 bills
01:10:01.520 there's a
01:10:01.700 very good
01:10:02.020 bill on
01:10:02.320 birthright
01:10:02.700 citizenship
01:10:03.220 secure
01:10:05.380 the
01:10:05.680 border
01:10:05.940 in other
01:10:06.760 words
01:10:07.080 they should
01:10:08.520 codify
01:10:10.320 Trump's
01:10:10.880 activities
01:10:13.580 tighten up
01:10:14.180 on the
01:10:15.160 executive action
01:10:15.900 tighten up
01:10:16.360 on the
01:10:17.120 southern border
01:10:17.540 because we
01:10:17.900 know
01:10:18.220 that when
01:10:18.740 the democrats
01:10:19.200 can get in
01:10:19.740 they'll
01:10:19.940 reverse it
01:10:20.620 but they
01:10:21.200 won't be
01:10:21.440 able to
01:10:21.680 do that
01:10:22.080 if it's
01:10:24.960 in the
01:10:25.480 law
01:10:25.760 they'll have
01:10:26.380 to pass
01:10:26.780 a law
01:10:27.580 and have
01:10:28.040 to admit
01:10:28.340 what they're
01:10:28.720 doing
01:10:28.920 the
01:10:29.980 problem
01:10:30.240 is that
01:10:30.580 the
01:10:30.740 white
01:10:30.960 house
01:10:31.200 seems to
01:10:31.580 be
01:10:31.780 is not
01:10:33.100 pushing
01:10:33.400 any of
01:10:33.760 these
01:10:34.080 bills
01:10:34.800 and unless
01:10:35.480 they do
01:10:35.900 I don't
01:10:36.280 think that
01:10:36.800 speaker
01:10:37.200 johnson is
01:10:37.780 going to
01:10:38.060 raise
01:10:38.280 anything
01:10:38.640 he's just
01:10:39.360 going to
01:10:40.900 lie low
01:10:42.180 and I
01:10:43.800 don't know
01:10:44.180 why the
01:10:44.540 white
01:10:44.740 house
01:10:44.940 isn't
01:10:45.160 pushing
01:10:45.440 these
01:10:45.720 bills
01:10:46.100 of course
01:10:46.720 it's got
01:10:46.960 its hands
01:10:47.360 full
01:10:47.680 in
01:10:48.200 Minnesota
01:10:49.600 where they
01:10:50.100 clearly need
01:10:50.560 to declare
01:10:50.940 the
01:10:51.140 insurrection
01:10:51.520 act
01:10:51.820 and that
01:10:52.120 kind of
01:10:52.440 thing
01:10:52.640 and they
01:10:52.880 keep going
01:10:53.780 around
01:10:54.080 blowing up
01:10:54.640 foreign
01:10:54.940 governments
01:10:55.660 and stuff
01:10:56.060 like that
01:10:56.500 and sinking
01:10:57.160 ships
01:10:57.500 and stuff
01:10:57.840 which must
01:10:58.940 be very
01:10:59.240 entertaining
01:10:59.680 but I
01:11:00.860 would really
01:11:01.240 rather than
01:11:01.640 focus on
01:11:02.860 ending
01:11:03.780 this
01:11:04.140 immigration
01:11:06.640 disaster
01:11:07.580 you know
01:11:08.940 it's
01:11:10.500 whatever it is
01:11:11.300 34 years now
01:11:12.280 since I
01:11:12.700 started writing
01:11:13.420 about this
01:11:13.820 in National
01:11:14.180 Review
01:11:14.520 I'm 78
01:11:15.740 I can't wait
01:11:16.520 much longer
01:11:17.080 I think
01:11:18.120 let's just
01:11:18.400 get on
01:11:18.840 with it
01:11:19.160 and you
01:11:20.280 have a
01:11:20.500 number of
01:11:20.800 children
01:11:21.040 who will
01:11:21.480 inherit
01:11:21.740 the country
01:11:22.560 that's really
01:11:23.300 the point
01:11:23.840 you know
01:11:24.280 people
01:11:24.520 occasionally
01:11:24.980 yeah
01:11:27.560 people say
01:11:28.680 okay
01:11:29.000 I get
01:11:29.280 attacked all
01:11:29.760 the time
01:11:30.100 for not
01:11:30.720 being
01:11:30.940 an immigrant
01:11:31.640 my position
01:11:32.480 is you
01:11:32.800 know
01:11:32.900 I'm an
01:11:33.380 immigrant
01:11:34.060 doing a 1.00
01:11:34.620 dirty job 0.51
01:11:35.080 that Americans
01:11:35.600 won't do
01:11:36.140 talk about
01:11:37.640 immigration
01:11:38.060 but the real
01:11:38.660 reason is
01:11:39.080 I have
01:11:39.360 children here
01:11:39.920 my youngest
01:11:40.540 child is
01:11:40.920 10 years
01:11:41.320 old
01:11:41.640 and
01:11:42.140 God knows
01:11:43.960 what the
01:11:44.200 country
01:11:44.340 is going
01:11:44.520 to be
01:11:44.740 like
01:11:44.920 by the
01:11:45.240 time
01:11:45.460 she
01:11:45.660 you know
01:11:46.580 she's a
01:11:48.460 grown woman
01:11:49.020 are you 0.99
01:11:50.400 bitter
01:11:50.640 I've been
01:11:54.260 extremely blessed
01:11:54.920 in my
01:11:55.360 personal life
01:11:56.280 even though
01:11:58.160 my first
01:11:58.560 wife died
01:11:59.220 so
01:12:00.000 I don't
01:12:03.340 think
01:12:03.760 I think
01:12:08.860 things could
01:12:09.400 have worked
01:12:09.680 out differently
01:12:10.180 for me
01:12:10.720 professionally
01:12:11.460 but in my
01:12:12.760 personal life
01:12:13.300 I'm very
01:12:13.600 blessed
01:12:13.940 you don't
01:12:15.420 you don't seem
01:12:15.620 angry
01:12:15.980 my read
01:12:17.680 on it
01:12:17.920 is what
01:12:18.180 happened
01:12:18.520 to you
01:12:18.800 is 0.63
01:12:19.040 grotesque
01:12:20.280 and
01:12:20.840 is evil
01:12:21.680 and not
01:12:23.040 the kind
01:12:23.360 of thing
01:12:23.620 I thought
01:12:24.020 would ever
01:12:24.740 be allowed
01:12:25.200 here
01:12:25.500 so I'm
01:12:26.860 shocked
01:12:27.380 always shocked
01:12:28.260 to hear
01:12:28.560 your story
01:12:28.980 I am
01:12:29.840 I guess
01:12:31.100 I am
01:12:31.420 bitter
01:12:31.720 at the
01:12:32.260 conservative
01:12:32.560 movement
01:12:32.980 people
01:12:33.380 I've known
01:12:34.640 for 30
01:12:35.460 40 years
01:12:36.040 who basically
01:12:36.520 haven't helped
01:12:37.020 us
01:12:37.260 haven't defended
01:12:37.900 us
01:12:38.240 the most
01:12:41.380 prominent
01:12:41.700 people who
01:12:42.140 have defended
01:12:42.620 us
01:12:42.880 are you
01:12:43.740 and Laura
01:12:44.520 Loomer
01:12:44.740 your friend
01:12:46.020 Laura Loomer
01:12:46.520 so that
01:12:48.820 just shows
01:12:49.400 how ecumenically
01:12:50.060 we are
01:12:50.660 so Loomer
01:12:54.200 helped you
01:12:54.660 oh yeah
01:12:55.200 she supported
01:12:56.660 us on Twitter
01:12:57.500 when we were
01:12:58.080 good for her
01:12:58.820 when we were
01:12:59.160 trying to
01:12:59.480 raise money
01:12:59.940 to defend
01:13:00.840 ourselves
01:13:01.340 and she
01:13:01.780 may have
01:13:02.080 I have a
01:13:02.620 give send go
01:13:03.220 which I just
01:13:03.820 launched
01:13:04.200 before Christmas
01:13:05.440 frankly
01:13:05.920 to help us
01:13:06.800 personally
01:13:07.180 because of course
01:13:07.620 we're now
01:13:08.040 facing tremendous
01:13:09.180 legal costs
01:13:09.900 personally
01:13:10.360 and I believe
01:13:11.840 she's helped
01:13:12.160 us with that
01:13:12.740 have you received
01:13:14.300 any help
01:13:14.700 from the
01:13:14.940 Department of
01:13:15.340 Justice
01:13:15.600 we know
01:13:19.360 that there
01:13:19.960 are people
01:13:20.400 in the
01:13:20.640 Department of
01:13:21.000 Justice
01:13:21.220 who are
01:13:22.000 not directly
01:13:25.300 on the other
01:13:26.500 hand Trump
01:13:26.880 can't stand
01:13:27.420 Letitia James
01:13:28.300 quite rightly
01:13:29.360 and they've
01:13:30.740 made various
01:13:31.220 attempts to
01:13:31.680 bring her 0.79
01:13:32.080 to book
01:13:32.400 for various
01:13:33.000 crimes
01:13:33.360 for one
01:13:33.780 thing
01:13:33.920 I mean
01:13:34.080 she's clearly
01:13:34.540 guilty
01:13:34.800 of massive
01:13:35.180 mortgage fraud
01:13:35.820 going back
01:13:36.220 over 40 years
01:13:37.060 but you know
01:13:37.940 the obverse
01:13:38.540 of lawfare
01:13:39.360 run by
01:13:40.060 Democrats
01:13:40.480 is joint
01:13:40.980 notification
01:13:41.640 by Democrats
01:13:42.460 they've been
01:13:43.720 unable to
01:13:44.240 indict her
01:13:44.800 basically because
01:13:47.120 judges
01:13:47.520 keep disallowing
01:13:48.340 the prosecutors
01:13:49.020 and because
01:13:49.580 the grand
01:13:50.040 juries
01:13:50.320 won't indict
01:13:51.840 Democrats
01:13:53.840 so I don't
01:13:57.340 know where
01:13:57.620 that stands
01:13:58.560 they also have
01:13:59.520 an investigation
01:14:00.040 into her
01:14:01.000 deprivation
01:14:01.620 of Trump's
01:14:02.760 civil rights
01:14:03.320 in these
01:14:03.940 scandalous
01:14:04.780 cases
01:14:05.220 in this
01:14:06.280 hush money
01:14:06.720 case
01:14:07.120 and the
01:14:07.700 fraud case
01:14:08.640 and so on
01:14:09.080 we should
01:14:09.520 never have been
01:14:10.020 allowed to go
01:14:10.400 to court
01:14:10.860 the judges
01:14:11.240 should have
01:14:11.540 started
01:14:11.800 but of course
01:14:12.220 the judges
01:14:12.560 are on the
01:14:12.860 other side
01:14:13.420 and a judge
01:14:14.780 is just trying
01:14:15.300 to strike that
01:14:16.580 down by
01:14:17.180 disallowing
01:14:19.200 the prosecutor
01:14:19.880 I mean
01:14:20.340 what's happening
01:14:20.980 is these
01:14:21.540 Democrats
01:14:22.160 senators
01:14:22.800 not only
01:14:24.640 have the
01:14:25.040 power to
01:14:25.620 veto
01:14:26.000 judicial
01:14:27.040 appointments
01:14:27.440 federal
01:14:27.640 judicial
01:14:28.000 appointments
01:14:28.500 but they
01:14:28.860 also have
01:14:29.260 the power
01:14:29.520 apparently
01:14:29.960 to veto
01:14:30.800 prosecutors
01:14:32.120 federal
01:14:32.440 prosecutors
01:14:33.040 and they've
01:14:34.200 apparently
01:14:34.920 taken the
01:14:35.440 position
01:14:35.720 that they
01:14:36.060 won't
01:14:36.980 allow
01:14:38.020 the appointment
01:14:38.760 of a
01:14:39.060 federal
01:14:39.240 prosecutor
01:14:39.680 if he's
01:14:40.200 likely to
01:14:40.580 prosecute
01:14:40.940 Letitia 0.98
01:14:41.300 James
01:14:41.580 or any
01:14:42.240 other
01:14:42.460 Democrats
01:14:43.000 and God
01:14:43.780 knows
01:14:44.040 there are
01:14:44.180 enough
01:14:44.340 Democrats
01:14:44.720 out there
01:14:45.060 that need
01:14:45.380 prosecuting
01:14:46.000 that's how
01:14:46.720 they're
01:14:46.860 protecting
01:14:47.240 them
01:14:47.520 in many respects
01:14:48.760 we're looking
01:14:49.380 to slow
01:14:50.240 motion civil
01:14:50.820 war here
01:14:51.520 New York
01:14:52.260 and Minnesota
01:14:54.560 have essentially
01:14:55.100 seceded from
01:14:55.660 the union
01:14:56.060 the whole
01:14:57.200 legal systems
01:14:57.920 are opposed
01:14:58.940 to what the
01:14:59.580 federal government
01:15:00.060 is doing
01:15:00.600 Jonathan Turley
01:15:02.140 who is a
01:15:02.660 first amendment
01:15:03.100 specialist
01:15:03.700 wrote recently
01:15:05.120 that New York
01:15:06.380 is the land
01:15:07.480 that law
01:15:07.820 forgot
01:15:08.320 because
01:15:09.140 normal
01:15:09.860 legal
01:15:10.140 norms
01:15:10.420 simply
01:15:10.660 don't
01:15:10.880 apply
01:15:11.180 there
01:15:11.440 what
01:15:12.680 happens
01:15:13.040 is what
01:15:13.380 the
01:15:13.740 democrat
01:15:14.080 operatives
01:15:14.660 want
01:15:15.080 and of course
01:15:15.960 this is not
01:15:16.500 a government
01:15:17.720 under law
01:15:18.340 so in effect
01:15:20.220 New York
01:15:20.560 is seceding
01:15:21.520 from the
01:15:22.920 union
01:15:23.200 and that's
01:15:25.120 why I think
01:15:25.560 ultimately
01:15:25.900 we're going to
01:15:26.220 have to go
01:15:26.500 to the
01:15:26.700 insurrection
01:15:27.160 act
01:15:27.460 and we're
01:15:27.700 going to
01:15:27.920 have to
01:15:28.420 go to
01:15:28.620 wholesale
01:15:29.040 impeachment
01:15:29.520 of judges
01:15:30.120 all these
01:15:31.180 judges
01:15:31.480 brought in
01:15:31.900 by
01:15:32.080 Biden
01:15:32.440 I think
01:15:34.360 he had
01:15:34.600 one or
01:15:34.980 two
01:15:35.140 white
01:15:35.440 men
01:15:35.640 both
01:15:35.860 of whom 0.67
01:15:36.060 were gay 0.83
01:15:36.380 something 0.79
01:15:36.660 like that
01:15:37.140 all the
01:15:37.720 others
01:15:37.940 women 1.00
01:15:38.600 and people
01:15:39.220 of color
01:15:39.560 and so on
01:15:40.060 and they
01:15:40.880 delivered
01:15:41.160 the most
01:15:41.480 extraordinary
01:15:41.940 rulings
01:15:42.480 disregarding the
01:15:45.000 plain letter
01:15:45.420 of the law
01:15:45.900 ultimately
01:15:46.440 it's going to
01:15:46.780 have to be
01:15:47.060 purged
01:15:47.300 of the
01:15:48.300 judicial
01:15:48.860 system
01:15:50.440 Trump
01:15:52.280 when that
01:15:52.720 happens
01:15:53.100 Trump will
01:15:53.520 be attacked
01:15:54.420 as destroying
01:15:55.400 the third
01:15:56.160 branch of
01:15:56.580 government
01:15:56.980 but it's
01:15:58.200 been
01:15:59.480 completely
01:15:59.900 destroyed
01:16:00.300 long
01:16:00.960 before
01:16:01.160 Trump
01:16:01.440 right
01:16:01.800 my last
01:16:06.360 question to
01:16:06.820 you Peter
01:16:07.220 Burlund
01:16:07.460 thank you so
01:16:07.920 much for
01:16:08.440 doing this
01:16:09.080 is are
01:16:11.040 you hopeful
01:16:11.940 I have
01:16:18.100 a I have
01:16:18.900 a one of
01:16:20.580 the things
01:16:21.080 I want to
01:16:21.420 be remembered
01:16:21.780 for is
01:16:22.240 based on a
01:16:23.680 talk I gave
01:16:24.280 in about
01:16:24.580 2015 is
01:16:25.600 that miracles
01:16:26.100 happen quite
01:16:26.560 often in
01:16:26.960 politics
01:16:27.420 yes
01:16:27.880 I mean
01:16:28.420 nobody
01:16:29.040 nobody
01:16:29.760 expected
01:16:30.080 the Soviet
01:16:30.380 Union
01:16:30.580 collapse
01:16:31.000 are you
01:16:31.260 old enough
01:16:31.500 to remember
01:16:31.840 that
01:16:32.120 I'm 56
01:16:32.960 yeah I
01:16:33.460 remember it
01:16:33.900 like it was
01:16:34.660 yesterday
01:16:35.060 30 years ago
01:16:35.900 30 years ago
01:16:37.020 I mean
01:16:39.060 that's literally
01:16:39.520 true
01:16:39.740 nobody
01:16:40.080 nobody
01:16:40.440 either on the
01:16:40.880 left or the
01:16:41.360 right
01:16:41.520 expected
01:16:41.900 the Soviet
01:16:42.220 collapse
01:16:42.700 on the
01:16:42.960 other hand
01:16:43.420 you know
01:16:45.060 I don't
01:16:45.340 think they
01:16:45.620 expected
01:16:46.040 the
01:16:46.480 Catholic
01:16:47.200 Church
01:16:47.520 to go
01:16:47.720 in the
01:16:47.860 direction
01:16:48.100 it went
01:16:48.460 in Vatican
01:16:49.120 2
01:16:49.500 and
01:16:49.940 and
01:16:50.540 on the
01:16:53.000 third
01:16:53.240 hand
01:16:53.560 nobody
01:16:54.020 expected
01:16:54.520 Trump
01:16:55.340 and he
01:16:56.520 has been
01:16:56.720 a miracle
01:16:57.100 I mean
01:16:57.420 he's changed
01:16:57.760 the situation
01:16:58.180 in so many
01:16:58.600 ways
01:16:59.340 not of which
01:17:00.120 I think he
01:17:00.840 has probably
01:17:01.280 thought about
01:17:01.760 but he does
01:17:02.480 it anyway
01:17:02.880 so I'm hopeful
01:17:05.060 because I think
01:17:05.600 miracles happen
01:17:06.820 in politics
01:17:07.480 frequently but we
01:17:09.300 need one
01:17:09.740 the situation
01:17:11.120 right now
01:17:11.660 we're heading
01:17:12.140 in a very
01:17:12.460 very bad
01:17:12.820 direction
01:17:13.280 and
01:17:13.760 in the
01:17:14.880 situation
01:17:15.340 with
01:17:15.600 where
01:17:16.460 you know
01:17:17.340 Democrat
01:17:17.920 politicians
01:17:18.500 are openly
01:17:19.020 calling people
01:17:19.680 to disobey
01:17:20.540 federal law
01:17:21.380 disobey
01:17:22.300 law
01:17:22.740 prevent ICE
01:17:24.260 from
01:17:24.480 deporting
01:17:25.360 illegals 0.93
01:17:25.900 that's more
01:17:29.820 extreme
01:17:30.360 than
01:17:30.660 ever happened
01:17:31.760 in the
01:17:32.060 south
01:17:32.440 during
01:17:33.660 desegregation
01:17:34.560 much more
01:17:35.220 it's more
01:17:35.620 extreme
01:17:35.940 than what
01:17:36.840 the south
01:17:37.200 did
01:17:37.560 at
01:17:38.240 Fort
01:17:38.880 Sumter
01:17:39.240 I mean
01:17:40.120 this is
01:17:40.880 insurrection
01:17:41.460 actual
01:17:42.040 insurrection
01:17:42.540 that's right
01:17:43.400 it's insurrection
01:17:44.580 and of course
01:17:45.980 Eisenhower and
01:17:47.820 Kennedy did use
01:17:48.460 the insurrection
01:17:48.940 act to impose
01:17:49.660 integration
01:17:50.300 he sent the
01:17:54.880 101st Airborne
01:17:55.760 to a high school
01:17:56.500 right
01:17:57.380 with the
01:17:59.520 total applause
01:18:00.240 from the
01:18:01.000 mainstream media
01:18:02.160 which was then
01:18:02.520 of course
01:18:02.860 completely
01:18:03.440 oligopolistic
01:18:05.660 I mean
01:18:05.960 it was
01:18:06.260 dominant
01:18:06.880 at least now
01:18:08.060 we have
01:18:08.600 we have
01:18:08.980 twitter
01:18:09.220 even if
01:18:09.620 we are
01:18:09.880 shadow
01:18:10.120 band
01:18:10.360 on twitter
01:18:10.860 are you
01:18:11.680 still
01:18:11.860 shadow
01:18:12.120 band
01:18:12.300 oh yeah
01:18:12.680 well as far
01:18:13.400 as we can
01:18:13.660 see we are
01:18:14.200 Anne
01:18:14.920 Colder
01:18:15.300 you know
01:18:15.840 her
01:18:16.080 her
01:18:16.380 followership
01:18:17.960 has not
01:18:18.340 risen
01:18:18.640 for like
01:18:19.340 six years
01:18:19.960 it's been
01:18:20.240 2.1 million
01:18:21.040 for six years
01:18:21.660 it doesn't go up
01:18:22.140 it doesn't go
01:18:22.480 down
01:18:22.760 I mean
01:18:23.040 it's obvious
01:18:23.760 you can see
01:18:24.240 from the
01:18:24.520 engagement
01:18:24.940 that there's
01:18:25.820 something
01:18:26.040 very strange
01:18:27.040 going on
01:18:27.420 it's all
01:18:29.260 the Indians
01:18:29.640 he has in
01:18:30.060 there
01:18:30.200 he hasn't
01:18:30.400 been able to
01:18:30.660 root them
01:18:30.920 out yet
01:18:31.380 thank you
01:18:34.620 very much
