If you want to see a masterclass in shameless, truly evil propaganda, I'm talking about jaw-dropping deception. Even more flagrant than the George Floyd narrative that has no purpose other than it calls a race war. Then put on your detective hat and look no further than the multiple fake lynching stories that are now springing up out of nowhere just in time, of course, for the midterms. There is a concerted effort to manufacture the idea that white people in America today are running around murdering blacks and hanging them from trees. According to the media and the left, there is a full-on lynching epidemic happening in our country right now in the year 2026. Now, the problem with this claim is that, of course, it's entirely and obviously untrue. These are comically absurd lies that have no basis in reality whatsoever. And they fall apart after about three and a half seconds of investigation. Yet they're being repeated by media outlets, as well as influencers like Ms. Rachel, who reaches millions of children with parents stupid enough to let them watch the kind of weird brain-wrought slop that Ms. Rachel turns out with factory-like efficiency. Watch. Let's listen to the black community. Black people don't hang themselves from trees. There's been at least seven black people found hanging from trees. Black people being lynched. Haitian people having to wear ankle monitors, getting TPS taken away. Kids in detention centers where the water makes them sick, where the medical neglect is abused. Well, meanwhile, back in reality, no black person has been lynched in this country at any time this century. There has not been a single case, not one. In fact, if you are 40 years old or younger, there has not been an anti-black lynching in your entire lifetime. If you're 50 years old, there has been maybe one in your lifetime. And it happened when you were in kindergarten. These psychotic narratives, which will debunk piece by piece in a second, are part of a much larger derangement that's taken hold among a certain political demographic in this country and it's getting impossible to ignore. One of the most prominent DEI hires of all time, the New York Times fabulous Nicole Hannah Jones, who's black, has just gone public and admitted that she sent her daughter to a failing mostly black school because she was under the impression that it would be racist to send her daughter to a privileged, high functioning good school with a lot of white people. Jones apparently believed that if she sent her daughter to a subpar black school, everything would be okay because all of the students are really blank slates and all they need is some motivated, committed educators to help them realize their infinite potential. And surprise, surprise, after a few years her daughter realized that as a result of her mother's ideology, her education has been an enormous waste of time. Reality, once again, crashed into a leftist like a freight train. There's a five million word, approximately, New York Times article about this whole saga with Jones's daughter. And still, none of these people are learning any lessons from it. But before we get into Nicole Hannah Jones and what her pathetic and frankly disturbing op ed tells us about DEI and the left in general, let's investigate a couple of these purported lynchings. And we'll start with the untimely death of 29-year-old Tazia Fortune, who's a black woman in Mississippi who was found hanging from a tree in the first week of August of this year. Now, here's how the Associated Press, probably the biggest news organization on the planet, covered this woman's death watch. In North Carolina, police are investigating the August 21st death of 38-year-old Demetrius Eugene Fleming. In February, police in Cobb County, Georgia found the body of 21-year-old Kyle Basinga in a park. While investigators said there was no indication of foul play, Cobb County commission chairwoman Lisa Cupid said Basinga's death caused many to think about the days of slavery and of Jim Crow. The September 2025 death of 21-year-old black student Trey Reid and Mississippi's Delta State University was ruled a suicide, as was that of 39-year-old Dolores Richardson in September 2024 and Alabama's Colbert County. Richardson's wife has said she does not believe he killed himself. More than 4,400 lynchings occurred in the US between Reconstruction and World War II according to the Alabama-based Equal Justice Initiative. Almost 60 members of Congress signed a letter demanding that the Justice Department investigate the hanging deaths of black individuals and enforce the 2022 Emmett Till Anti-Lynching Act, which made lynching a federal hate crime. The Justice Department confirmed it received the letter but has not responded according to Representative Ayanna Presley's office. Ah yes, historically grounded skepticism. You know, so there is no actual present-day reason to be skeptical in these actual cases, but there is historically grounded skepticism. You know, it's kind of like when your wife asks if you could, you know, if you took the trash out and you say that you did and then she says, are you sure and you say, what do you mean am I sure? Yes, I took the trash out. I think I would know. And she says, well, you know, five Wednesdays ago, you said you would take the trash out, but you never did. And we missed trash pickup. That's a classic woman move that we can now call historically grounded skepticism. But at least in the case of the trash, the history causing the skepticism is only, you know, a few weeks old. In the case of the supposed lynchings, the history is many decades old. In fact, none of the black people pretend to be traumatized by the imagined imagery of a lynching have ever seen a lynching or known anyone who was lynched or known anyone who knew anyone who knew anyone who was lynched or had any first or second hand or third hand experience or encounters with lynching at all. So really, this is more analogous to like if your wife accused you of not taking the trash out, not because you forgot to take it out a few weeks ago, but because her friends great grandfather forgot to take his trash out in 1947. But this is the way it works now. If you have some historical grievance and you're a member of a quote unquote marginalized community, otherwise known as being anything but a white male, you're allowed to just completely make things up. You get to throw around whatever deranged theory you want because 150 years ago your theory might have seemed plausible to someone. And you can make it sound very nefarious that half a dozen black people, meaning six people, were found hanged in the past two years, even though it's actually very plausible that six black people would hang themselves in a country where 50 million black people are living over the course of two years. That's not extraordinary at all. That's very, very plausible. But indeed, even the phrase found hanged implies that they were all hanged by someone else, even though most of these people, according to all available evidence, not to mention basic common sense, hung themselves. Really, that whole clip is just genuinely outrageous. Everybody involved, obviously in the production of the video that we just saw should be fired, starting with the reporter, who's a Howard University graduate, his name is Sarah Jones Smith. This is not simply a bad news report. It is malicious. It is deliberately dishonest in every conceivable way. Sarah Jones Smith, by the way, is the engagement editor at the AP, which means that her job is to get as many social media clicks as possible. And that's what she's doing here. And to do it, she omits every relevant detail in the story, and strongly implies that Tazia Fortune was lynched. Here's what she said, quote, "although Fortune's mother doesn't think her daughter's death was racially motivated for many black people, the imagery of a rope and news evokes the legacy of lynching and vigilante violence against black people in the US." So if you're a viewer who doesn't know anything about this case, then you're led to believe that the mother may be misguided. She merely thinks the death wasn't racially motivated. That's how it's presented. What the AP reporter doesn't show you is the picture of the man who was arrested in the woman's murder, but we'll show it to you right now. Here it is. There he is. And in case you're listening to the audio podcast, just to spoil it for you, he's black. He doesn't exactly fit the description of the typical white supremacist. So the AP just pretends this photo doesn't exist. They don't mention anything about the suspect at all. In fact, or his relationship with the victim, which the police called an association, I keep in mind the AP is a wire service. So they provide news reports to thousands of news outlets all over the world precisely because they're supposedly an accurate and reliable source of information. And now they're going on camera and deliberately trying to stoke racial warfare in the most obvious way they possibly could. They've been doing this for years in various contexts, you know, with George Floyd, Michael Brown, and so on. But this has to be one of the worst examples ever recorded. I mean, we're accustomed to all of the, all of the, you know, relentless propaganda. So we may not appreciate this for just how evil and despicable it is. So I will just emphasize the point again. They're trying to conjure a lynching epidemic out of whole cloth. I mean, it's unthinkable. The only thing more egregious and irresponsible than this would be if they, let's say, invented a totally fake story about churches in Canada committing genocide against native children and bearing them in mass graves, which let's say led directly to dozens of churches being burned down in retaliation. That would be even worse, but thank God, you know, things haven't gotten that bad yet. In any case, what the AP report is getting at, of course, is that the facts don't actually matter. It's sufficient for this woman's death to evoke the history of lynching. If something happens that reminds anyone of lynching, then we have to go through the whole racial reckoning again. We have to apologize for our whiteness. We have to open up our wallets and give these people more money. That's the idea. As overt as this propaganda is, and even after a lot of people called it out this morning, the AP double down, they announced the arrest of another suspect in the case. And here's how they reported it, quote, "Police and Mississippi have arrested a second man in the death of a black woman found hanging from a tree and have issued an arrest warrant for a third suspect." Once again, they don't mention anything about the identity of this second man, so we'll help the AP out. Here he is. It's yet another black man, which they deliberately omit from their reporting for the second time in a week. And by the way, they can't even hide behind the claim that, well, the race didn't matter. Why would we put a race there? You put the race of the victim. So the race matters for the victim, but not for the people who commit the crime. If a black woman is killed, then the fact that she was black matters, but if a black man does the killing, the fact that he was black does not matter. Yes, that is their, apparently their editorial position. Even putting aside how desperate this strategy is, it doesn't make any sense historically either. I mean, even leaving aside the fact that none of these cases are actually lynchings and there hasn't been any lynching in my lifetime or probably in your lifetime, the deeper point is that even on a purely historical basis, their lynching narrative still makes no sense. The Tuskegee Institute estimates that more than 1200 whites were lynched, mostly as a form of frontier justice, historically, you know, way back in the day when the black lynchings were happening also, that's around 30% of all recorded lynching victims in this country, which is obviously a significant amount. So this whole attempt to make lynching an exclusively anti-black phenomenon is totally wrong historically. And by the way, the Tuskegee Institute stopped tracking lynchings in the 1960, because no one was doing it anymore. The other problem with talking about lynching is that, as unpopular as it may be to say, a certain sizable portion of the people who got lynched historically were criminals who deserved it. Yes, many of the victims were targeted for illegitimate reasons, but at the same time, if you committed some heinous crime, particularly in an area of the country where there were no courts, where there was no real system in place for dealing with you, then the options for justice were rather limited, and that goes for white people as well as black people. That's how they handled train robbers and cop killers and horse thieves. They didn't get a trial. Everyone knew they did it, and so they hang them on the spot. Now in that, in a historical context where you don't have in many places, especially on the frontier, where you don't really have a prison system or a court system, is that a defensible practice? Well, reasonable minds can disagree, but what you can't do if you cared all about historical accuracy, is suggest that lynchings were only ever racist or only ever affected black people, which is what this AP report is doing. But again, all of that doesn't even matter because the fact is that right now today, lynching is not happening, period. And as this report continues without any evidence whatsoever, it goes on to suggest that various other black people were lynched. Watch. While investigators said there was no indication of foul play, Cobb County commissioned Chairwoman Lisa Cupid said Basinga's death caused many to think about the days of slavery and of Jim Crow. The September 2025 death of 21-year-old black student Trey Reid and Mississippi's Delta State University was ruled a suicide, as was that of 39-year-old Dolores Richardson in September 2024 in Alabama's Cobb County. Almost 60 members of Congress signed a letter demanding that the Justice Department investigate the hanging deaths of black individuals and enforce the 2022 Emmett Till Anti-Linching Act, which made lynching a federal hate crime. Now if random politicians or family members say that they don't believe somebody committed suicide, that's not actually evidence of anything. Americans have an obvious motive to stoke racial tension and family members are often in denial about the possibility that a loved one committed suicide. I mean, frankly, if you have someone in your family who's found hanging as a, you know, as the spouse or a child or any or parent, you probably prefer to think that they were the victim of some kind of racial violence than the other option, which is that they chose to do this to themselves. That's going to be an even harder thing for you as the family member to cope with, which is why suicide is so selfish and terrible, by the way. But what you need here, preferably before you go on camera and suggest that whites are secretly hanging black people from trees is actual evidence. And the fact that the manner of someone's death reminds you of something else or brings to mind some historical phenomenon does not constitute evidence of anything at all. Okay, a couple of months ago, there was a fire on a large boat in Lake Winneposaki in New Hampshire. And you know, someone might say that the boat fire in a really narrow sense reminded them of Pearl Harbor, but that doesn't constitute evidence that the Japanese were responsible for that boat fire at Lake Winneposaki. The Japanese may have caused a lot of boat fires during that one particular incident in 1941, but that doesn't make it rational or justified to demand apologies from Japan any time a boat catches on fire 80 years after the fact. So back to the cases at hand, there's no reason to believe that any of these were actually lynchings. Here's a report from a local newspaper on Trey Reid, for example, who was mentioned by that AP reporter, quote, "Trey Reid, 21, was discovered hanging from a tree on September 15th, 2025, on the Delta State University campus in Cleveland, Mississippi. Days later, the Mississippi State Medical Examiner's office announced that his death of cause of death was hanging, and the manner of death was suicide. At the time his family did not believe those results and wanted more answers. They hired civil rights attorney Ben Crump for a private investigation. Crump's legal team arranged for the Colin Kaepernick Know Your Rights Camp Autopsy Initiative to fund Reid's independent autopsy and Dr. Matthias O'Coy of Nebraska, completed it before Reid's funeral on September 27th, 2025. It appears Crump of his team went silent on Reid's family whom he vowed to provide clarity and closure regarding their loved ones' death. So Ben Crump was just an enormous piece of one of the biggest in the entire country ghosted them after the autopsy. The guy's just a vulture, as soon as there's a dead black person, this guy is gonna parachute down to the scene. He's gonna be there and he's gonna get there faster than the speed of sound. He's gonna be landing at the scene because of a dead black person. But the moment that it becomes obvious that this dead black person is not gonna be useful to him. He can't make any money off of it. He can't do any press conferences about it. He's gone. He just evaporates as quickly as he appeared. He's like Batman. You know, you turn around and all you see is like the curtains blowing and he's jumped out the window. So anyway, it's a pretty good sign that there's no case here. So why exactly is the AP suggesting to this day that some mysterious white supremacists may have executed this kid? I mean, it's grotesque. All of them should lose their jobs, but none of them will. They'll probably just be promoted. And this isn't the only alleged lynching that they're lying about. Here's another. Black man found hanging in Maryland, swiftly ruled as suicide. Now you know, in this photo, you can see community members prowled the tree that a black man was found hanging on an upper Marlboro, Maryland. I used to live there, upper Marlboro. Do this found Sunday morning, but authorities have already ruled out foul play. So you're not even going to give it a good full three days. You're not interested in that, right? Foul play. Nope. Nothing to see here. Suicide. We don't yet have an ID, not yet released by authorities. The state office of the chief medical examiner determined the man died of suicide by hanging. With no other signs of trauma to his body, his name was not immediately released. At a virtual news conference Monday evening, the Prince George's County Police Department briefly showed video of the man alone taking materials to the location where he was found including a rope out of respect for the man's family, local station news for not showing that video. The officials continue to characterize the case as an active investigation, but they've already ruled. So aside, we're going to tell the truth. We're not going to be entertaining theory in you endos and folks who just want to spew quite frankly untruths. Ladies, you don't know what the truth is, the investigation's on going. And you act like these innuendos and theories are just born out of thin air, as someone with a Hollywood imagination. Notice how she completely glosses over the little detail about how the guy was caught on camera bringing various materials, including a rope, to the site where his body was found. Seems pretty conclusive all on its own. She doesn't find that strange in any way. She thinks, you know, when white supremacists are out lynching black people, they make the black people bring their own rope, like it's a potluck or something, like it's a, what is this? A B-Y-O-R lynching, where they email him an invitation and he RSVP to it. I'm not trying to be craft, it's just that's what's being implied. That is what they are implying that he brought a rope to his own lynching. That's what they're saying. I'm not saying it. At the same time, even as she thinks it's totally unremarkable that the guy was carrying a rope, she makes a big deal about the fact that the police took less than three days to determine it was a suicide. Apparently, even in when someone's on camera killing himself, there should be a mandatory waiting period before we can say that he killed himself. We don't want to rush to any conclusions, and most of all, we don't want to provide the evidence, you know, the evidence-based conclusion before the false narrative has a chance to spread. By the way, the tape is indeed completely fatal to the narrative they're trying to push, as you would expect, watch. We wouldn't normally show video of a man in mental health crisis in the final hours of his life, but due to the conversations on social media and all of the questions we have decided that this may be helpful for people who want some peace and some understanding after the tragic hanging that happened this past weekend in Prince George's County. Here is what Chief George Nader of the Prince George County Police Department had to say about this video and the part that it's playing in their ongoing investigation. What you're going to see on this video is you'll see the individual that committed suicide dragging a dolly which was propped up against the tree. We believe that was used to get higher up in the tree, and you'll also see him carrying a rope that's consistent with the rope that we located on the crime scene. The Maryland Medical Examiner has ruled this a death by suicide. So if this is a lynching, we can only conclude that the KKK has resurrected from the dead and developed some kind of mind control device where they compel black people to lynch themselves. That is apparently what's happening according to the media, pretty diabolical. And not only that, but they've also mind controlled the black politicians who run the town. Watch. Prince George's County leaders are speaking about a traumatic incident for the Upper Marrow community. Yesterday morning, there were many witnesses who saw a black man hanging from a tree. This was on Darcy Road near Sandsbury Road. Prince George's County Police said they did not find any evidence of foul play. And new today, the medical examiner has now determined the man died by suicide. County Executive Aisha Brave boy called the man's death a tragedy. We know that the community needs and deserves the truth, and we want to provide as much information to the residents as we possibly can. Now if you look at the comments for any of these videos, and it's quite depressing to do so, so I don't recommend it. But if you did, you'll find thousands of black people claiming the guy was indeed lynched. They'll say the footage where he's carrying the rope was generated by AI. They'll accuse the police and the local government of a cover-up. And very often, they'll encourage each other to carry firearms specifically for the purpose of defending themselves against these invisible roaming bands of white supremacists.

They're living in an alternate reality, and it's not hard to see why. At the highest levels, media outlets and the education system have repeatedly used false narratives to indoctrinate millions of black people. Nicole Hannah Jones at The New York Times has played a very large role in this phenomenon. She came out with the 1619 project, which is actually one of the inspirations for our real history series of The Daily Wire, along with Ken Burns and his anti-American documentary on the Revolutionary War. We saw what these liars and hacks were doing, and we decided to actually tell the truth about history. Unlike Jones, who lied about almost everything in the 1619 project, her most ridiculous claim was that we fought the revolution to preserve the institution of slavery. It was absurd, totally false, and she won a Pulitzer for it, which tells you how much Pulitzers are worth. Jones barely writes anything anymore. She's basically like an unofficial figurehead now, kind of like the Megan Markle of Journalism, but somehow even more devoid of talent and personality. But she returned this week with an extremely long op-ed in The New York Times, where she writes about her decision to send her daughter to a terrible school in New York. Now, she had the money to send her daughter to a good school, but the good schools rather inevitably don't have a lot of black students. They were too white, too privileged, so she deliberately sentenced her child to language in a dysfunctional institution that was more likely to make her dumber instead of smarter, like a kind of anti-education, which is exactly what happened, and all of this, to strike a blow against white supremacy. Yes, a black woman was going to make her black daughter dumber in order to score a point against white people. Very similar to the strategy often employed by BLM to burn down their own neighborhoods out of spite against white people who don't even live in those neighborhoods. But she apparently believed that because she worked at The New York Times, she could single handedly turn the bad school around. She seemed to believe that all the students at this school had extraordinary potential, and that the only thing holding them back was the school leadership, which she could influence as a high and mighty New York Times employee. Eight years ago, Jones made it very clear that, in her view, being a New York Times employee meant that she could fix anything, everything, watch. But New York Times reporter in a high poverty school changes the school, right? There's certain things that just are not going to happen in that school. I can go to that school and say there's a problem, and it gets fixed immediately. Now, this was apparently the attitude that Jones had when she decided to send her child to failing schools, and here's how she begins her op-ed. Quote, "When nausea was entering pre-K, my husband Faraji, I decided to send her to the type of school that wealthier families with choices uniformly avoid, one that is low income and mostly black. Our decision had been informed by values shaped by my years of reporting on the enduring and too often seemingly hopeless battle for school integration." So for ideological reasons, she sabotages her kid's own education by her own admission. Of course, when she talks about the seemingly hopeless battle for school integration, she's not clarifying exactly what that battle entailed. We did two episodes of our real history series on the Civil Rights Movement, and we focused extensively on school integration. It was one of the most sinister periods in American history. district. White students were forced to attend dangerous dysfunctional black schools where in some cases they were violently attacked because of their skin color. Some of these white students were bust across town for this purpose. Meanwhile, of course, black students were sent into mostly white schools to disastrous results. There's a book, an actually banned book, a really banned book, the kind that's not going to be at Barnes and Noble on the display that says banned books. This book is called Race War in High School that describes what happened in many of these schools. The book folks is in particular on a firsthand account of the violence that broke out in a high school in Brooklyn after integration whites, including white teachers, were beaten, set on fire, sexually assaulted, stripped, extorted, and the police didn't do anything about it, calling it a matter of school discipline. Schools nationwide suffered similar problems, post-integration, it was a travesty, and virtually everyone, including the government, looked the other way. I mean, the black students literally got away with murder, in some cases, and as a result, to this day, very few people want to send their children to mostly black schools. This is from our real history documentary on Civil Rights Part 2, watch. Let's start with the reality of what white students went through. In her book Whitewashing the South, Kristen Lavelle spoke with elderly residents of North Carolina about their recollection of what Bussing was like in their community. One 80-year-old woman named Francis stated, quote, "Our children had a little bit of a problem in school with the blacks stealing their lunchmuff. Her son told us he would not go to the bathroom by himself for fear he would be jumped. An 80-year-old man named Arnold, said his daughter, a relate similar experiences, quote, "A lot of black guys would do is they would congregate around a girl, especially a white girl, and sort of block her and intimidate her if they could. Ellie 70 said her son was the victim of bullying by a dominating African-American boy who targeted whites. I just will never forget this. There was a big black boy that sat in front of our son, and when he got to school, this black boy sort of ran supreme in the classroom, and he would have our son get down and lick his shoes, and he would say, "Your people have slave my people, and now I'm going to slave you." These kinds of incidents actually were common, which is why Bussing was extremely unpopular at the time. For students who couldn't avoid Bussing by going to private school, life became far more dangerous than unpleasant. In 1974, a federal judge forced the working-class Irish neighborhood of South Boston to merge with Roxbury, which was mostly black. Chaos ensued in the streets. All over the country where Bussing went into effect, it was resistance from both whites and blacks. At Roslanddale High School, a white girl was hit by a black kid. The next day, at South Boston High School, a 17-year-old was stabbed before his second period class. Those stories came soon after many others, according to the New York Times School. A group of about 20 black students attacked a white girl in a bathroom of the Hyde Park School. Another white student attempted to intervene and was thrown into a corridor. The student who was stabbed 15-year-old Joseph Crowley reportedly either went to that student's aid or was nearby when he was attacked and stabbed by black males. Policemen responded the situation arrived about 10 am to find some 50 blacks roaming the halls. They ran, dropping two baseball bats, a wooden club, and a chain. Besides the stabbing victim, another 15-year-old boy was seriously injured when he was struck on the head with a chair, suffering severe head lacerations, cuts, and a mild concussion. In virtually every documentary on busing, the documentaries that children are forced to watch in public schools today, none of this black-on-white racial violence is discussed. Instead, white parents are cast as racist for not wanting the government to take their children, put them on a bus, and drive them an hour away to a school that's much more dangerous and much more dysfunctional than the one they're paying property taxes to attend. So this is the side of integration that you're not really told about. You never hear about the whites who were terrorized by black criminals while no one in the government would help them. Anti-white race oscillars like Jones would prefer you never talk about any of this. They'd prefer to call you racist for sending your child to a mostly white school, and apparently they'd prefer to send their own children to mostly black schools to really prove you wrong. Except in this case, Jones inadvertently proved the other side right. But not before she unloads a bunch of false statistics to muddy the waters, so let's read on. Quote in New York, a combination of housing segregation and academic sorting called school choice that begins as early as pre-K means most black students, even middle-class ones, are forced to attend racially segregated schools with high rates of poverty. And nationally schools and predominantly non-white districts receive $23 billion less in annual funding than their heavily white counterparts, according to a 2019 analysis by Ed Build. And everything that we measure, these schools have less, even though the economically struggling student bodies, they serve need more. It's really hard to get through with these, you know, it's unfortunate when a Nicole Hannah Jones article is in the news because the writing is just so bland. On top of everything else, I mean, everything she's saying is false and wrong and it's propaganda, but she's also just a really bad, bland, untalented, uninteresting writer, who somehow has made an enormously lucrative living doing that. But anyway, this is just simply wrong again from a factual perspective as Mark McGee pointed out, Jones is only counting the state and local revenue that these schools received when you count federal funds, which you should, because they get those funds, the poor schools and the non-white schools receive much more money per pupil than the white schools. This is something left just don't want to believe because it's fatal to many of their racial narratives, but it happens to be true. Along the same lines as we previously discussed, black people tend to commit many, many more crimes, even when you control for income. So black people born into wealthy families at the top 10% of incomes are more likely to go to prison than white people born into poor families at the bottom 10%. Now these are statistics that disprove the idea that systemic oppression is the cause of dysfunction in black communities, which means the left simply ignores the statistics. They lie about them as Jones is doing in this op-ed, so we're told falsely that black students are doing poorly because their schools aren't getting any money and because their teachers are somehow underpaid. But actually the teachers, including the teachers of this specific school, are making six figures for only nine months of work a year. This is from the Manhattan Institute Watch. Behind me is the public school where the founder of the 1619 project, one of the main advocates of DEI and equity and affirmative action sent her daughter to prove that it was indeed funding and racism in the problem of American public schools and learned a hard way that it was not. Daniel Helg Williams Elementary is over 80% black and Hispanic and less than a quarter of the children are proficient in math or reading by the end of their time there. It sits right next to one of the main public housing projects in New York City. Is this school underfunded you might say? Well, it's $52,000 per student per year underfunded to you. It's a teacher salary average of over $100,000 a year from nine months of work underfunded and it's a teacher to student ratio of 9 to 1 to high. Just half a mile away in Dumbo from public school 307 is Community Roots Charter and another charter school that is in front of a public housing project as well. But instead of only one quarter of the students being proficient in math and reading, over 80% of them are proficient and the school spends less than half of what PS307 does. $26,000 rather than $52,000 which is evidence that the problem of American public education is not a funding problem, it's not a staffing problem, it's an incentives problem, something that school choice through competition solves. Okay, so the entire premise of the op-ed is debunked, but now that we've done that, let's continue. Quote, for the end of first grade, Najia started sometimes saying she didn't like her school and complaining how chaotic it was at lunch. I decided to visit during the lunch period. I was shocked by what I saw. Najia's class and another class were sitting at their tables in the cafeteria, with no lunch and no adult supervision. Children were running wild, chasing, hitting and pushing each other while the teacher's aides and cafeteria workers stood by looking bored. Several times, I had to instruct children to stop striking each other and to sit down at one point physically pulling two boys apart. When I asked one of the aides why the children weren't being supervised, she told me that lunch period was short staffed. After I sat back down with Najia, she told me, it's always like this and that's why I don't want to go to this school. It was not that the children, it was not the children that horrified me. She continues, kids of all incomes are rebunctious at lunchtime. It was the callous disregard of the adults. Students respond to the high or low expectations of institutions and the grownups who operate them and it was clear that these children were getting the message. Well, actually the behavior of these children should horrify you. If you have kids running around acting like animals, physically attacking each other, that should horrify you. It's true that students respond to authority figures and these children probably don't have any of those at school or at home, but it's also true that just like adults, some children are, you know, problem children. They're not the kind of people you want your students to be around. You want your kids to be around. No amount of federal funding or one-on-one instruction. is going to make them behave normally. That's why, if you can avoid it, you should never send your child to a school where the students act like this. It's not going to get magically better. Many of these kids are going to grow up to be car jackers and murderers, and there's no sense of pretending otherwise. You're not alone. Drivers who save with Jerry could save over $1300 a year.

If you're a homeowner sitting on soaring credit card balances, you've probably considered refinancing, but then you hesitate thinking about that low mortgage rate that you currently have. Well, here's the reality. Hanging on to a low rate doesn't help if high interest credit cards at 22, 25, or even 28% are eating up your monthly income. And that's where the numbers shift in your favor. American financing can help you use your hard earned equity to wipe out high interest credit card debt.

Average savings based on borrowers who save over $199.99. You know, the fact is a child who is violent and dysfunctional and disruptive at a young age can still grow into a productive adult, but that's not going to happen on its own. Okay, human children are not baby lizards or birds. You can't just give birth to them and then send them off into the wild with no further help or instruction. They have to be raised and guided and morally and intellectually formed. If they aren't, and many of the kids in the school and a huge number of kids in the black community generally aren't, then tragically, that dysfunctional and violent and disruptive behavior is almost certainly going to get worse, not better with age. It's not the kind of thing that if you just set it and forget it, let it take care of itself, it's going to get better. It doesn't usually work that way until the kids end up inevitably and, you know, dead or in jail tragically. At some point, Jones's daughter realized her mother was torturing her on purpose and attempting to ruin her life so that, you know, she would have something to brag about in the New York Times break room, or at least on the Zoom calls because, you know, going to the break room would require going to work, which I don't think Nicole Hannah Jones ever does. But one day after school, her daughter said, "Did you know my school was bad like this when you decided to put me here?" And then eventually she puts her daughter in a mostly white school where she keeps failing her tests, even though she thought she got an A, and then she gets a tutor and she starts doing better and, you know, that's the gist. Among other things, this op-ed perfectly demonstrates the perverse, almost, almost exactly inverted priorities of leftists like Nicole Hannah Jones. You know, for decent, functional, civilized human beings, the order of personal priorities starts at the most localized level and stretches out in concentric circles from there. So your immediate priority is the well-being of your family, your spouse, your children, and then from next, from there, would be like your parents, your siblings, and then your extended family, and then your neighborhood, and then your broader community and out from there. Well, leftists, they turn this exactly around. So for them, your priority should start at the broadest and most abstract level possible. You should value the collective, or at least the preferred demographic collective above your own children, even sacrifice your child's well-being for the sake of this broad, ambiguous collective. And Jones, apparently, took this perverse philosophy literally and put it into practice, and it's ended exactly where any rational person would expect it to end. You know, it's a, it's a strange op-ed for a few other reasons, too. One of which is that just two years ago, Jones was publicly claiming that she made the right choice in sending her child to a bad school, quote, "By test score metrics, any would label this school as a failing school, but we judge these schools and their students without ever stepping inside. Eight years later, I still know we made the right choice." As that client put it, quote, "This would have been after her daughter challenged her about the school after she realized her daughter's teachers were not actually grading any of her work." And despite all that, she knows she made the right choice, sending her kid there. Now she's supposedly more conflicted about it, and yet the journey has provided a valuable lesson supposedly, and here's the grand finale, quote, "Nazia then said she was glad she had not spent her early years in a white environment as many of the black students at her high school had because she developed a strong sense of her identity and had the confidence to speak up against the casual racism they sometimes experienced." Now, as you said, that spending the last two years in classrooms full of privileged kids had taught her that these students weren't smarter, even necessarily better behaved than the kids that had gone to school with her before. They just had more. The segregation we were battling in 2026 was supposed to have been banished by the sacrifices of black children nearly seven decades ago when their parents sent them to integrate their local schools to enforce the Supreme Court's 1954 prohibition on school segregation after the government did not. As long as we continue to rescue our own children from the failing schools where we allow other people's children to languish simply because those children have been born black and poor and a nation of racism and riches, there is no absolution here, not for me, not for you, not for any of us. So again, just hectoring, scolding, lecturing, boring, uninteresting, bland, cliched writing. So the worst of all worlds come together with the Cole Hannah Jones. So this is an op-ed where she demonstrates pretty clearly that white people are smart to avoid sending their kids to public schools in New York, which are only about 14 percent white. They're not racist or whatever. They just want to avoid the same dysfunction that Jones saw. But in the end, Jones doesn't appear to realize the upshot of her own op-ed. You know, the thing is, no one is "allowing other people's children to languish simply because those children have been born black and poor and a nation of racism and riches." That's not happening. You know, it's true that many black schools and cities are languishing, but they're languishing in spite of decades of affirmative action, in spite of trillions of dollars in federal funding, in spite of the total transformation of the U.S. economy, such that as Bloomberg reported recently 94 percent of jobs added by major U.S. corporations in 2021 went to so-called people of color. Meanwhile, all of Hollywood and all of our media began relentlessly peddling racial propaganda designed to promote pro-black narratives at every opportunity. Major companies like Apple and Uber began promoting black owned businesses. The government hired millions of black people to do useless jobs solely to keep them occupied and help them enter the middle class. We made up rules so that pretty much every major contract job has to enrich a black business in some way. All of these steps and many, many others were supposed to eventually yield better outcomes for black people, and they haven't. According to this op-ed, and every other black commentator on the left, things are worse than ever. So maybe it's time to stop playing the game. Even according to them, if it's not working after all these decades, if it's only made things worse, well, okay, maybe we should stop, cut the funding entirely, and all racial preferences in every aspect of life, and start talking honestly about the horrors that were inflicted on innocent white people, the name of diversity, beginning during the civil rights era. Again, this is from our real history documentary. It's based on another book everyone should read called Left Behind in Rosedale. This is what happened to the elderly whites who were not able to flee the Dallas area, the ones who couldn't engage in so-called white flight. This was the consequence watch. One man in his 70s who was painting his home one afternoon was savagely beaten by three black adolescents who suddenly appeared on the front lawn. They asked him, "Yeah, work for us old man?" When he said he didn't, they shook the ladder violently. Then they beat him brutally with a two-by-four that was lying on the ground. The man nearly died from his injuries. While the white men were often subjected to robberies and unprovoked beatings, the white women, including the elderly, were routinely being raped. Well, during the spring and summer of 1977, a series of rapes occurred in [BLANK_AUDIO] Rosedale, hysteria ravaged the elderly community between April and August, 1977, over 40 rapes were committed in Rosedale. The age of the victims ranged from 33 to 85. The attacks directed against elderly white women were especially malicious and violent. In Rosedale, violent blacks described their conduct as "wilding." They would act like wild animals as a way to entertain themselves. In many cases, their motive wasn't "financial," instead they wanted to dominate and humiliate whites. Cummings described "one night" of "wilding" in Rosedale that resulted in several murders, including the death of an elderly woman named Mrs. Marlow. It was a popular fixture at the local senior citizen center. One 15-year-old black kid described the violence as "well, we got together one night, just talking and jiving, we were playing some video games, we were looking for a house to burglarize, we picked that house because nobody was there. One of two of us was in front, the other fellows went around back, then all of a sudden, you know, I heard the window break and by the time we got there, me and the other guy, the door was kicked in and the glass was busted. We got inside through the kitchen and went into the living room. I saw all they was holding this old lady by the arms, and they was picking her up by the chin. They started dragging her around the house, slapping her and stuff, and asking her where the money was and stuff like that. She kept telling them, "Just quit hitting me and I'll show you where the money is." They just kept hitting her and dragging her around and stuff and hitting her. The other fellows were searching the house to look for something of value, but we didn't find much there, nothing really. They stomped her head, played video games, and left. The innocent woman suffered more than 30 stabooms, a fractured skull, and numerous bruises and contusions. Cummings notes that the black intruders initially found her in the bathtub. Her genitals and breasts were spray painted. Her prince on the spray can led to an arrest of one of the wilding suspects. This is the reality of what the country went through during these civil rights era. And it's what we're still having to endure at the hands of charlatans and race hustlers like Nicole Hannah Jones. They propagate totally fake narratives. They manufacture the most absurd lies because any honest account of history reveals that their whole ideology is nonsense. This is why they're trying to drum up all these fake lynchings. These people are like an auto mechanic who keeps coming up with new reasons why your car won't start for the 50th time, because he wants you to keep coming back and spending money. But at a certain point, if you're a reasonable person, you kind of have to admit that you got a lemon. And then it's time to move on. Secure in the knowledge that whatever happens to the car at that point, it's not your problem anymore. I'll do it with the show today. Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening. Talk to you tomorrow. Have a great day. Godspeed. Every significant movement in history started with protesting. No, I'm sorry. Uncle Tom. This is our generation civil rights. I have no idea what the protest is about. Bingo. Given the current climate, should a figure as polarizing as place sounders even be allowed on campus? Can you hear me okay? As long as this is a close personal friend of Chancellor Freeman, this is the decision I cannot find. Islam will conquer the West. Are we paying attention?
