  4. 0:05president of the David harwitz Freedom
  5. 0:08Center he's also a New York Times
  6. 0:09best-selling author his newest book is
  7. 0:12Progressive racism it is volume six in
  8. 0:16the Black Book of the American left
  9. 0:18series and we'll talk about that in a
  10. 0:20while David welcome back hey Larry you
  11. 0:23recently stared up some controversy by
  12. 0:25branding The Weekly Standard editor Bill
  13. 0:27Crystal a renegade Jew
  14. 0:30for his opposition to Donald Trump what
  15. 0:33does his being a renegade Jew have to do
  16. 0:36with opposition to Trump I call him a
  17. 0:38republican spoiler in a renegade you
  18. 0:40look we live in a democracy when the
  19. 0:43people have voted uh the idea you accept
  20. 0:47their verdict the uh people who have
  21. 0:49opposed Trump call themselves
  22. 0:51constitutional conservatives but the
  23. 0:53Constitution begins we the people that
  24. 0:55the people are sovereign so what I
  25. 0:58didn't I never objected to people who
  26. 1:00oppos Trump I didn't particularly take
  27. 1:03sides in the
  28. 1:04primaries but once the primaries were
  29. 1:07decided and Trump get he got the most
  30. 1:10votes of a republican ever gotten a
  31. 1:11primary and Crystal comes out um with a
  32. 1:15third party move can have only one
  33. 1:18effect which is to split the Republican
  34. 1:20vote and elect Hillary and in my view
  35. 1:24Obama and Hillary and betrayed this
  36. 1:27country and the Jews by giving nuclear
  37. 1:30weapons to a hitlerite regime in Teran
  38. 1:35that says openly they want to
  39. 1:36exterminate the Jews of Israel we gave
  40. 1:39them weapons yeah this nuclear the Iran
  41. 1:42deal basically legitimized their quest
  42. 1:45for nuclear weapons give them $150
  43. 1:48billion we let them violate they're
  44. 1:50already violating it they got these
  45. 1:52ballistic missiles so I Renegade Jew
  46. 1:56just meant Crystal was betraying the
  47. 1:58Jews of Israel and I also put in here
  48. 2:01which I believe he was betraying this
  49. 2:03country I I think a vote for the
  50. 2:06Democrats is a vote for disastrous
  51. 2:09policies but this Administration has
  52. 2:11sold more arms to Israel than the three
  53. 2:13previous ones combined that's true
  54. 2:15that's so well doesn't Israel as you
  55. 2:18know probably better than I do because
  56. 2:21you've probably been there Israel is a
  57. 2:22tiny country how many nuclear bombs can
  58. 2:25it take from Iran not that many all
  59. 2:30right but so you call what do you make
  60. 2:33though
  61. 2:34shouldn't if you're a Republican or a
  62. 2:36Democrat and you don't like the person
  63. 2:39they've nominated shouldn't you put your
  64. 2:41country before your party if you really
  65. 2:43don't like well if he wants to vote for
  66. 2:45Hillary let him vote for Hillary but
  67. 2:47let's not pretend that um you you're
  68. 2:51going to find a candidate who's going to
  69. 2:52win three states it's going to be thrown
  70. 2:55into the House of Representatives the
  71. 2:57Republicans are going to win back the
  72. 2:59house I mean this is how about George
  73. 3:02Will's idea says vote for Hillary let
  74. 3:05her be a four-year failed president then
  75. 3:07a Republicans come back to power but he
  76. 3:09can't vote for Trump you know when Obama
  77. 3:11was reelected I my first thought was a
  78. 3:15lot of people are going to be dead
  79. 3:17because of this election and it turns
  80. 3:18out there are 200,000 Christians
  81. 3:20slaughtered 200,000 syrians slaughtered
  82. 3:24on Obama's watch two million two million
  83. 3:2720 million refugees created
  84. 3:30these American presidency has
  85. 3:33consequences so I I don't buy that
  86. 3:35complacency how many Americans were lost
  87. 3:37under the George Bush presidency I mean
  88. 3:40losses are they happen all the time
  89. 3:43David if you go to war you get L this
  90. 3:45was a Slaughter because we created a
  91. 3:47vacuum we had a base in Iraq we had
  92. 3:4920,000 troops there we could have
  93. 3:51snuffed Isis at the
  94. 3:54start uh I mean I I didn't want to go
  95. 3:56into the Iraq War I supported the Iraq
  96. 3:58War I still support supp it was badly
  97. 4:01managed and the Democrats sabotaged it
  98. 4:03but Hillary supported it and Trump did
  99. 4:05not yeah and that was actually a decent
  100. 4:07thing she did okay are you a supporter
  101. 4:10of trump yeah all right do you have any
  102. 4:13doubts and Donald's an old friend of
  103. 4:15mine any doubts on when he says things
  104. 4:18and then does I will not raise money
  105. 4:20from anyone else now he's I I knew a lot
  106. 4:24of his promises he can't keep he can't
  107. 4:26well doesn't that disappoint you uh
  108. 4:28here's what I think about Donald and
  109. 4:30I've never met him first of all I love
  110. 4:34his political incorrectness I love that
  111. 4:36he has the guts to just blow through all
  112. 4:39that nonsense and he's the only
  113. 4:42politician that does uh but secondly uh
  114. 4:45you can count on he has a massive ego
  115. 4:47they all do but he his is especially big
  116. 4:51um Trump Towers Trump Airlines Trump
  117. 4:54this Trump that so mentally he's putting
  118. 4:56Trump on the White House and I believe
  119. 4:59there are promises he's made that he's
  120. 5:02got to keep he whether he builds a ball
  121. 5:05a wall from one end of the country to
  122. 5:07the other but he's got to secure the
  123. 5:10borders uh he's got to dismantle
  124. 5:13Obamacare he's got to rebuild the
  125. 5:15military he's got to take care of the
  126. 5:17Vets uh and I think he'll do it just for
  127. 5:20his his own legacy I mean you know there
  128. 5:22are things he won't do there are things
  129. 5:23that'll disappoint me but he's so much
  130. 5:26better than Hillary or uh and you him
  131. 5:29talking in North
  132. 5:31Korea it's okay to he talks off the top
  133. 5:34of his head I mean let no but doesn't
  134. 5:35that could be dangerous and your
  135. 5:37president you don't talk I think that's
  136. 5:39right I think that's right but I think
  137. 5:40once they get into the presidency
  138. 5:42they're surrounded by all kinds of
  139. 5:44people who are telling them that's
  140. 5:45ridiculous were you once on the left my
  141. 5:48parents were Communists uh I marched in
  142. 5:52a Mayday Parade a communist Mart made a
  143. 5:54parade in
  144. 5:551948 I was one of the founders of the
  145. 5:59new left I edited the largest magazine
  146. 6:01of the left ramp Parts I raised a lot of
  147. 6:04money remember ramp Parts yeah I raised
  148. 6:06a lot of money for the Black Panther
  149. 6:08Party uh to buy a
  150. 6:11school um what changed you well they
  151. 6:14murdered the woman that I got to do the
  152. 6:16bookkeeping of the school and then what
  153. 6:19happened in the Vietnam War in 19 this
  154. 6:21happened in December 74 this woman
  155. 6:24disappeared her body was discovered in
  156. 6:27February and in April America withdrew
  157. 6:30from Vietnam then in other words the
  158. 6:32left won a huge Victory caused America
  159. 6:35you were of the left yes we caused
  160. 6:37America's withdrawal and the Communists
  161. 6:40proceeded to slaughter 2 and a half
  162. 6:42million indo-chinese peasants in
  163. 6:45Cambodia and in Vietnam and it wasn't a
  164. 6:48single protest from the left and that
  165. 6:51taught me that the left was not about
  166. 6:52anti-war it was about anti-america
  167. 6:55Bernie Sanders you don't like him I
  168. 6:57guess he's a communist he's a lifelong
  169. 7:00communist he honeymooned in the Soviet
  170. 7:02Union he he's Denmark isn't his model
  171. 7:05it's Cuba and Venezuela I
  172. 7:09mean I I mean I know this in my bones
  173. 7:12because I was there with them all if you
  174. 7:14discover that if you realize that you're
  175. 7:16part of a movement like communism which
  176. 7:19is so evil the first thing you do when
  177. 7:21you when you change your views is you
  178. 7:24want to warn other people Obama hasn't
  179. 7:26done Obama is still in his heart a
  180. 7:29communist
  181. 7:31is a smart one Harvard
  182. 7:34graduate Harvard led the law
  183. 7:36review well
  184. 7:40yeah okay I don't think he would agree
  185. 7:42with you no he
  186. 7:44wouldn't you call him an American
  187. 7:47traitor yes that's a tough statement
  188. 7:50well but I said if Franklin Roseville
  189. 7:52gave nuclear weapons to Hitler what
  190. 7:54would we call him but he didn't give
  191. 7:56nuclear weapons to he has of course
  192. 7:59deled there were sanctions around him
  193. 8:01the idea was to bring the that regime
  194. 8:03down when the people went out in the
  195. 8:06streets there were lots of good Iranians
  196. 8:08and they demonstrated against the regime
  197. 8:10he did nothing didn't lift a finger to
  198. 8:14help them so you think you think
  199. 8:16President Obama and that's because he
  200. 8:18was starting these negotiations from the
  201. 8:20beginning and John you know and it's the
  202. 8:22whole Administration John kery who
  203. 8:24started his career betraying his
  204. 8:28comrades in arms in Vietnam them and
  205. 8:30lying that they had committed
  206. 8:32atrocities what about the right-wing
  207. 8:34bothers you their bigotry they what
  208. 8:38bigotry I I think this bathroom law in
  209. 8:40North Carolina is
  210. 8:43idiotic um unless you station a
  211. 8:45policemen in every bathroom to look at
  212. 8:48people's genitals and compare it to
  213. 8:50their birth certificates how can you
  214. 8:52enforce this stupid law David don't you
  215. 8:54think when you label someone like Obama
  216. 8:56a
  217. 8:58traitor you you could lead people like
  218. 9:01Donald Trump's former Butler to say that
  219. 9:03he should be killed if he's a traitor I
  220. 9:06know look there are lunatics all over
  221. 9:08the place but the left the left is out
  222. 9:10there inciting murder of policemen and
  223. 9:15massive numbers I they incite murder a
  224. 9:19policeman if aop blank fry them like
  225. 9:22bacon what do we want Dead Cops what
  226. 9:24when do we want them now accusing
  227. 9:28innocent police officers defending their
  228. 9:31lives of murder as happened in Ferguson
  229. 9:33to talk about the civil rights movement
  230. 9:35has become a roving Lynch Mob if a cop
  231. 9:38shoots an unarmed person black or white
  232. 9:41that cop is wrong if he shoots him in
  233. 9:43the back if he shoots him with his hands
  234. 9:46up but not if he shoots him when he's
  235. 9:49after he's tried to wrestle his weapon
  236. 9:51from him as Michael Brown this Thug in
  237. 9:55uh Ferguson did trying to wrestle his
  238. 9:58weapon away and then was charging him
  239. 10:00and then gets six warning shots and
  240. 10:02keeps charging kill him of course it's
  241. 10:07your life versus his but but this
  242. 10:10officer's life has been ruined by the
  243. 10:12racist left you said that Obama would
  244. 10:16never be president if he weren't
  245. 10:18black he wouldn't be dog catcher if he
  246. 10:21weren't black wait a minute but he had
  247. 10:22no I mean come on what's the black
  248. 10:24population in America 11% yeah but
  249. 10:27whites aren't racists they
  250. 10:29there are white racists and there are
  251. 10:31black racist let me clarify that but
  252. 10:34this country
  253. 10:36is the most tolerant country in the
  254. 10:39universe um here I'll give you one
  255. 10:42statistic in
  256. 10:431958 only 4% of Americans approved of
  257. 10:47interracial marriage between blacks and
  258. 10:49whites which is the index of how
  259. 10:51assimilated a group is today the figure
  260. 10:54is
  261. 10:5587% a race a white racist couldn't
  262. 10:59survive in public life I mean David Duke
  263. 11:01who follows him you think he can hold a
  264. 11:03March in Washington like farahan and get
  265. 11:06uh a million people or 10,000 people
  266. 11:10even following him no but that's an
  267. 11:12advancement don't you think it's
  268. 11:14tremendous it it's the greatest social
  269. 11:16Revolution probably in the history of
  270. 11:18mankind and it's taken place in the last
  271. 11:2150 years do you think Hillary would be
  272. 11:23serious if she weren't a
  273. 11:25woman or or uh Bill Clinton's wife or
  274. 11:30Bill Clinton's wife wouldn't you call
  275. 11:31the Bill Clinton presidency a success I
  276. 11:34think that Bill
  277. 11:35Clinton Clinton was not an ideologue the
  278. 11:38way these people are he certainly isn't
  279. 11:40and he he read a a a domestically a
  280. 11:44pretty good economy um helped by having
  281. 11:47a republican uh Congress um you know my
  282. 11:52only complaint about him is the way he
  283. 11:54treated the White House and that just
  284. 11:56his vulgarity and his abuse of women but
  285. 12:00that's true of a lot of democratic
  286. 12:02politics what do you mean by Progressive
  287. 12:04racism well it's the racism of the left
  288. 12:08um Let me let the Democratic party is
  289. 12:11the is the party of racism why do I say
  290. 12:14that well aside from the fact that they
  291. 12:17put all these racial categories into our
  292. 12:19life which were supposed to be expunged
  293. 12:22by the Civil Rights Acts so now race is
  294. 12:26a factor in hiring people and getting
  295. 12:28into college
  296. 12:29the Democrats control every major inner
  297. 12:33city of any size in America all the
  298. 12:36Killing Fields Chicago uh St Louis uh
  299. 12:41Baltimore uh Detroit uh Washington DC
  300. 12:45and they control them 100% there are no
  301. 12:48Republicans on those City councils uh
  302. 12:52and and and the Mayors are all
  303. 12:54Democratic and they've controlled them
  304. 12:57for 50 to 100 years everything that's
  305. 13:00wrong with the inner cities of America
  306. 13:03Democrats are resp and progressives are
  307. 13:04responsible for um including the schools
  308. 13:08that don't teach these kids year in and
  309. 13:10year out where they've got the kids
  310. 13:12trapped because they oppose the voucher
  311. 13:14programs uh 100% controlled by democrats
  312. 13:18if those were Republicans the Democrats
  313. 13:20would be screaming racist this is RAC do
  314. 13:22you mean by control what control them
  315. 13:24how they control all the authorities
  316. 13:26what whatever the authorities are in the
  317. 13:28inner cities blacks used to be
  318. 13:30Republican that's right where did the
  319. 13:32party lose them they lost them with a
  320. 13:34famous phone call that John Kennedy made
  321. 13:36to Martin Luther King in jail that's how
  322. 13:39they lost him uh and that that's what
  323. 13:42Drew blacks to the Democratic party well
  324. 13:45the Democrat they also passed the first
  325. 13:47major civil rights law under Lyndon
  326. 13:50Johnson did you disagree with that law
  327. 13:52no but that was uh I believe the Civil
  328. 13:56Rights Acts were supported by more
  329. 13:59Republicans than by democrats I believe
  330. 14:01the well because the Democrats of the
  331. 14:03South voted against it yes well and
  332. 14:05Johnson got party of slavery party of
  333. 14:08segregation party of the inner city that
  334. 14:11isn't the case anymore they threw that
  335. 14:13away and Linda Johnson said I know but
  336. 14:15lost the South forever who's the
  337. 14:17President's chief advisor on
  338. 14:20Race Mr
  339. 14:22Sharpton a racial arsonist a convicted
  340. 14:26liar who never paid his the fines he
  341. 14:30supposed to paid a tax evader uh and a
  342. 14:33Lynch mob leader that's who Sharpton is
  343. 14:36why is he the
  344. 14:38chief uh Counsel on race relations why
  345. 14:41has he been in the White House 80 to 100
  346. 14:44times is because in his heart Obama is a
  347. 14:47racist too Obama too and I will give you
  348. 14:49the quote that shows it Obama has said
  349. 14:53racism is in America's
  350. 14:56DNA H that's genetic passed on to
  351. 15:00Generations in fact the opposite is true
  352. 15:03slavery existed in Africa for a thousand
  353. 15:06years before a white person ever set
  354. 15:08foot there for 3,000 years there was
  355. 15:11slavery in all societies at some time or
  356. 15:14another and nobody ever said it was
  357. 15:16immoral not Aristotle not Moses not
  358. 15:19Jesus they were all wrong until
  359. 15:22wilburforce yeah in the 18th century and
  360. 15:26Englishmen in America who became
  361. 15:28American an in 1776 or
  362. 15:311787 in our birth certificates said
  363. 15:35Liberty and equality are god-given
  364. 15:38rights that government can't take away
  365. 15:41within a little a a little more than a
  366. 15:44generation at that time but the 90 80
  367. 15:47years slavery was abolished in America
  368. 15:50and in the Western Hemisphere every
  369. 15:52black in America owes their freedom to
  370. 15:54Thomas Jefferson and the founders what's
  371. 15:57in America's DNA is Liberty that Obama
  372. 16:01said it's racism just just reveals well
  373. 16:05where he's you have to walk in his skin
  374. 16:06and weak it's hard to do that uh uh it's
  375. 16:10easy to say that as a white he had an
  376. 16:12incredibly privileged life actually the
  377. 16:14last chapter in this book is called
  378. 16:16black skin
  379. 16:17privilege he went to all these of course
  380. 16:20we don't know his college records but he
  381. 16:22got into all the premier SCH you're not
  382. 16:25going to say he's stupid I don't think
  383. 16:27he's stupid no but I don't know that he
  384. 16:30he would have gotten into Harvard if he
