And then there were the stories of\u200d various politicians, including congressmen, \u2063who called for\u200d defunding the police \u2014 only to\u2064 demand police\u2064 protection when they needed it.\u2064 So, the\u200c whole idea of defunding the police was a BLM-inspired debacle that seemed\u200b hard to top.<\/p>\n<p>But \u200bnow there\u2019s a contender, as hard as that might be to imagine. It was\u200c less than a year ago that \u200ba so-called \u201creparations task force\u201d in California announced a plan to pay $1.2 million to every descendant of a slave, or of a \u201cfree Black person\u200d living\u200b in the United States \u2063prior to the end \u2063of the 19th century.\u201d\u200b In\u200c all, that proposal would cost something like $800 billion to implement, \u200bwhich is\u2062 more than\u200c double California\u2019s entire state\u200b budget. But nevertheless, there \u200dwas optimism that this would actually happen.\u2063 After all, this task force had spent \u2064around two years crafting\u200b this proposal, so they were\u2064 pretty confident they \u200bcould see \u2063it through.

The \u2063NFL invited a woman to sing \u2063what\u2019s \u200cknown as the \u201cblack national anthem,\u201d which of course is a contradiction in terms. There is\u2064 no \u201cblack national anthem.\u201d \u200bThere is one national anthem. Any country\u2063 that has multiple national anthems for different demographic groups isn\u2019t really a\u2062 country. It\u2019s a\u2062 collection of different countries, split up \u2064along ethnic\u200b lines, and \u200cit \u200bwill fall apart\u200b very\u2062 quickly.<\/p>\n<p>But ensuring \u2062that this country falls apart \u200cis precisely the goal \u200cof the largest news outlets in the\u200c United States. So before the game, \u2062CBS interviewed the woman who sang this \u201cblack\u200b national\u200b anthem\u201d at the \u200dSuper Bowl, whose name is Andra Day. \u2064Watch:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AndraDayMusic?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@AndraDayMusic<\/a> says her upcoming performance\u200b of the Black National Anthem, \u200d\u201cLift Every \u2062Voice\u200b and Sing,\u201d at <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/SBLVIII?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#SBLVIII<\/a> could allow people to \u201cshare\u200d in \u2063a really, really beautiful, \u200cspiritual \u2064moment together.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/vbtsnFwqqm\">pic.twitter.com\/vbtsnFwqqm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 CBS Mornings (@CBSMornings) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CBSMornings\/status\/1755973763856765252?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 9, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Change is \u201cscary,\u201d \u2062she \u2063says. \u201cIf you\u2019re not changing and growing then you\u2019re dying.\u201d And everyone at CBS pretends \u2062that\u2019s the most intelligent thing they\u2019ve ever heard. But it \u2062doesn\u2019t\u200b even \u200dcome close to making sense. She\u2019s basically saying we need racially segregated national anthems just for the sake of changing something. And then at the \u2064end, she \u2062implies that somehow \u200dthis will lead to unity. We will be unified by having separate anthems. Even though the whole point of\u2064 singing the anthem \u200d\u2014 the one national anthem \u2014 \u2063is to show our\u2063 unity.<\/p>\n<p>But the \u2064point of this \u200crevival of \u201cthe black national anthem\u201d is\u200b to take us back\u2064 to \u200bthe pre-civil rights \u2062era. This is not progress;\u200c it\u2019s regression. That\u2019s what\u2062 this is\u2064 a deliberate callback to. It\u2019s when \u2063the NAACP first\u200c started pushing the song, after an NAACP official wrote\u2063 it. For the past three years, the NFL has been\u200c trying to equate this \u200dwith the actual\u2064 national anthem. The implication is that we\u2019re back where we were in the early 1900s. It\u2019s \u200clike when Joe Biden says \u2062it\u2019s \u201cJim Crow on steroids\u201d to require voter ID. They are desperate to\u200b convince us that we\u2019re living\u2064 in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/tucker-carlson-we-can-have-any-opinion-we-feel-like-having-that-is-not-treason\/\" title=\"Tucker Carlson: 'We Can Have Any Opinion We Feel Like Having -- That Is Not Treason'\">white supremacist hellscape<\/a>, which is\u200c nonsense.<\/p>\n<p>But again, it\u2019s falling flat. Andra \u200dDay performed this\u2062 \u201cblack national anthem\u201d\u2064 before the commercial\u200b break, before the teams came out, and several \u200dminutes \u200bbefore \u200cthe national anthem.\u200d And, to \u200bthe extent that people responded to it\u200b at all, it was panned on social media. No\u2064 one\u200b thought it was inspirational or\u2062 unifying\u2063 or \u2064whatever.\u200b This \u200bis the response\u2063 all of the post-BLM, post-George Floyd ideas are receiving now, from defunding the police, or \u2064implementing reparations.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2063 this means for\u2063 race hustlers \u2062like Henry Rogers is that they\u2019re going \u200bto have to find new jobs\u2062 soon. What it means for \u2063the rest of \u2063us is that, at long last, our moment of national racial\u200b insanity might\u2062 eventually come to an\u200d end.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> What were \u2062the reasons for the overwhelming unpopularity of the reparations \u2063proposal in\u200c California?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Post-George Floyd\u2063 Innovation:\u200c The \u200cRise \u2063and Fall of &#8220;Defund the Police&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Until recently, it was\u200d hard to think \u200dof a post-George Floyd \u2064innovation that failed more quickly, or more spectacularly, than the \u200b\u201cdefund the police\u201d movement.<\/p>\n<p>As homicide rates\u200d ballooned by more than\u200c 30%, cities like Los Angeles, Baltimore, Philadelphia,\u200c Minneapolis, New York, Austin,\u200b and Oakland\u200b reinstated funds for\u200c police departments. They had all made a big show of cutting police funding, \u2063only to realize \u2062that \u2062in fact, police actually\u2064 serve a purpose.\u2063 And then there \u200cwere \u200bthe stories of various politicians, including \u200dcongressmen, who called for defunding the\u2063 police \u2014 only to demand\u2063 police protection when they needed it. \u2063So, the whole idea of defunding the\u200d police was a BLM-inspired debacle that seemed hard to top.<\/p>\n<p>But now there\u2019s a contender, as hard \u2063as \u200cthat might be to imagine. It was less than a \u2063year ago that \u2062a\u2063 so-called \u201creparations task force\u201d in California announced a plan \u200bto pay $1.2 million \u200cto every descendant of a\u2063 slave, or of a \u201cfree Black person living in the United States prior to\u2062 the end of the\u200b 19th century.\u201d In all, that proposal would cost\u2062 something like\u2062 $800 billion to implement, which is more than double\u200b California\u2019s entire state budget. But nevertheless, there was optimism that this would\u200b actually happen. After all, this task force had spent around two years crafting this proposal, so they were pretty \u2062confident they \u200bcould see it through. <\/p>\n<p>So they say they\u2019re not taking \u2064the money \u2064from taxpayers and \u200dredistributing it. They claim instead \u2064that \u2062they\u2019re \u200c\u201creturning\u201d stolen money, even though the taxpayers didn\u2019t take it in the first \u200dplace. Imagine applying this logic\u200d to all of the Europeans who\u2063 were sold as slaves in \u2063North Africa,\u200c or\u200b all of the\u200c white people who are killed by black people every year \u2064in the United States \u2014 which is\u200b a very disproportionate number. Are all of the descendants of these white \u2062victims entitled to reparations from all black\u2062 people, as well?<\/p>\n<p>Proponents of reparations never\u200d had a good \u2063answer to that question.\u2062 In fact, they didn\u2019t have answers \u200dto any questions \u200cat \u200ball, including how \u2062they\u200d were going to pay for all of this.\u200b So, fast forward a few months, and it turns out the descendants of slaves will not be getting\u200b paid in California. The whole idea became so overwhelmingly unpopular in California that even Gavin Newsom\u2063 \u2014 who never misses a\u200b chance to\u200c genuflect before the BLM\u200b altar \u2014 wasn\u2019t a fan.\u2064 So after considering the proposals of the\u200d reparations task force, California lawmakers recently introduced a series of 14 bills \u2014 and \u200bcash payouts to \u200cthe descendants of slaves are not included in any\u200d of them. But they\u2019re still calling these bills \u201creparations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Well, this is\u200d embarrassing.\u2062 Hopefully no\u2062 descendants of slaves went out and spent a million dollars in the past couple of months, thinking they\u2019d get reimbursed. Turns out \u200dthat\u2019s not happening. Instead, they\u2019re getting rid of \u200bsolitary confinement and prohibiting \u201cdiscrimination based on hairstyles.\u201d It\u2019s a bit \u200bof a step down, you might say.<\/p>\n<p>As you\u2019d expect, the most reprehensible anti-white\u2063 racists in \u200cthe country were deeply disturbed by this news. Semi-prominent race-baiter\u200c Tariq Nasheed was \u2062particularly\u2064 furious. \u200dHe wrote: \u201cThis package does \u2064NOT include any\u2062 cash \u2062payments to Foundational Black \u200cAmericans at all. It\u2019s a 111 page \u2062nothing-burger, dipped in nothing-sauce.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s true, for the most part. And it\u2019s not \u2062often that this guy says anything true. Still, buried in these 14\u2063 proposals are a few very bad and unconstitutional ideas,\u2062 including reimplementing affirmative action and other race-based initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>One\u200c California assemblyman\u2064 who supports these\u200d bills, Corey Jackson, actually wants\u2064 to amend\u2063 California\u2019s Constitution \u200cto\u2063 permit laws that would, \u201cincrease the life expectancy of, improve educational outcomes for, or lift out of poverty specific groups based on\u200b race,\u200c color, \u2062ethnicity, national \u2063origin, or marginalized genders, sexes, or sexual \u2062orientations.\u201d\u200d In other words, he wants\u200c to be able \u2062to \u2062pass laws that would \u200donly help non-whites, which currently would violate both\u2064 the \u2063California\u200d and \u2064U.S. \u2062Constitutions. That\u2019s what they\u2019re focusing on in California, a state that has no shortage of \u200creal problems. They\u2064 desperately want to turn the state into Rwanda and accelerate \u200dits decline \u2064even further.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, it\u2019s very clear \u200cthat they\u2019re going to fail. The reparations grift is indeed collapsing. That\u2019s because \u200dthe \u200dreparations grift, and the whole race hustle scam, depends\u200c on instilling and maintaining a deep\u200d sense \u200dof guilt in white\u200b people. But you can\u2019t keep an entire race of people crippled \u2063by undeserved \u200bguilt over ancient history forever. Eventually\u2063 that guilt turns to\u200b exhaustion, and the exhaustion into resentment or indifference. That\u2019s when the scam blows back on the scam artists.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re \u2063seeing this \u2063more and more. For example I recently tweeted a statement that\u2019s completely uncontroversial to anyone with \u2064a baseline understanding of world history. \u2064I wrote: \u201cSlavery is world history. White \u200cpeople did not invent it, and were \u2064not the first\u2064 to practice it, but were\u2063 the first to abolish it. \u200bThe last place in the world to\u200d still have \u200clegal slavery was Africa. It wasn\u2019t fully legally abolished on the continent until 1981.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pretty much everyone agreed with that post, \u200cbecause it\u2019s obviously true. Slavery\u200d was\u200b an unquestioned fact of life across the entire world for thousands \u2064of \u2062years. In fact, for thousands of years nobody even thought to question the institution.\u200b The most enlightened minds might have\u2062 suggested that slaves should be treated humanely, in some circumstances. But nobody rejected slavery fundamentally,\u2064 as\u200c a concept. This \u2062was the case, again, everywhere, among \u2064all people, for millennia.<\/p>\n<p>White Europeans were the first ones to argue that\u200d slavery as an institution should \u2064not\u200b exist at all, and \u2064that the \u200cslaves themselves have the right to be free. The unique relationship between slavery and Europeans is\u2062 that Europeans \u200dare the first\u200c ones who figure out that it\u2019s\u200c wrong. That\u2019s just a fact.\u2062 It can\u2019t be denied. If I should be blamed for\u2062 slavery because \u2064white \u2064people participated in it,\u200c then I should also\u200d be\u2064 thanked because\u2064 white\u2064 people abolished it. So where is my thank \u200dyou note?<\/p>\n<p>This is all kind of obvious\u200c to anyone with a rudimentary understanding of history. Which explains one prominent dissenter to my tweet, who has \u200bno understanding of history\u200d at all: Henry Rogers, a.k.a.\u2064 Ibram X. Kendi. Here\u2019s what he wrote: \u201cThe \u200dultimate White savior statement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s\u200b obviously a\u2064 meaningless reply, but since Henry Rogers\u2062 is\u200b supposedly a serious academic and not\u200d a fraudster, I figured\u2063 I\u2019d follow-up. I asked Rogers if he\u2019d like to have a live, on-camera\u200c conversation about the issue. If\u2062 you didn\u2019t know any better, you\u2019d \u200dthink he would jump at the \u2064chance. After all, he\u2019s an\u200d academic\u2062 with\u200d a PhD. I\u2019m a podcaster with \u2063a\u2063 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-releases-list-of-president-trumps-accomplishments-and-it-is-historic\/\" title=\"White House Releases List of President Trump\u2019s Accomplishments \u2013  And It Is Historic!\">high school diploma<\/a>. He\u2063 could easily school \u200bme in a debate, couldn\u2019t he? Surely he\u2019ll jump at the chance, right? Wrong.<\/p>\n<p>Kendi replied \u200cto my\u2063 challenge two \u200ddays later with this: \u201cMany historians have already explained why\u2063 your statements about \u200dslavery are wrong. It would be a huge waste of my time repeating\u200d what has already been shared with you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There you have it. He doesn\u2019t have \u200bto debate me because\u2062 \u201cmany historians\u201d have already\u2064 said that he\u2019s right. Who are these\u200c historians?\u2064 Don\u2019t worry about that. There\u2019s many of them. That\u2019s all that matters. And why should their opinion preclude us from having \u2062a conversation on the topic? Well, \u2064don\u2019t \u2063worry about that \u2063either. In any case, the\u2062 reaction to that conversation was overwhelmingly hostile \u2014 to Ibram X. Kendi. Everyone recognized exactly what was going on. This \u201cesteemed antiracist academic\u201d \u2014 who runs \u2062an entire antiracist\u200c center at \u2063a major university, and\u2063 who managed to burn \u2062through $40 million in \u2063grant money in just a\u200b couple of \u2064years \u2014 can\u2019t allow his claims to be subjected to any scrutiny. Even scrutiny\u2063 from a high school \u200deducated \u2062podcaster. Because he\u2019s an intellectual lightweight,\u2064 and his ideas are as hollow and weak as \u2063he\u2062 is.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s yet another sign that the\u200d \u201cantiracist,\u201d reparations grift is collapsing. So is this footage from UCSF, which is supposedly \u200bone of \u2063the leading universities \u2064and hospitals in the United States. They rang \u200bin Black History Month \u200cby\u2064 inviting \u2064a\u200d black supremacist named \u2063Dante King to campus.<\/p>\n<p>He goes\u200c on like that for a while.\u2063 You hear \u2063a lot about \u201cgenocidal\u201d rhetoric from the Left. But this is actual genocidal rhetoric. White people are \u201cpsychopaths,\u201d says Dante King.\u2062 They\u2019re genetically inferior.\u2063 Again, this is someone lecturing at \u2064an institution that trains doctors and\u200d treats patients. That can\u2019t \u200dmake white\u200d patients at UCSF too comfortable right now.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not familiar with \u200cKing you should know that\u2064 he \u2062offers an 8-week course on \u201cdiagnosing whiteness\u201d for the low price of $1,200. It\u2019s\u200c not clear how much UCSF paid for this lecture. They\u2019re a public university,\u2062 so presumably they used taxpayer \u200bmoney \u2064for it.<\/p>\n<p>This is the\u200d reality of living in \u200cCalifornia \u2063these days.\u200b Even if the reparations bill \u2064fails, public institutions \u200dwill\u2062 find ways to take your money to spread anti-white race hate. \u2063But you can tell from the response to\u2064 this\u2064 footage\u200d \u2014 which\u2062 went viral immediately \u2014 that \u2063people are fed up with this propaganda. Just like the FAA footage I aired on \u2064this show last\u2063 week, someone on the inside\u200d had to draw attention to this video. There are whistleblowers who are tired of these race hustlers. The more the race scam collapses, the more whistleblowers will come forward.<\/p>\n<p>The\u2064 only remaining support for race propaganda comes from the largest corporations in\u2064 the\u2064 country. They\u2019re still committed\u2062 to forcing\u2062 this on us.
