well progressivism not just in this country but around the world is
increasingly coming to resemble not just a religion but a cult bent on suicide
not over staying that in Europe billionaire George Soros recently said
the European countries ought to cope with migrant crises the ones that he
helped encourage by keeping their borders open to new arrivals and then
taking on tens of billions of dollars in new debt as if they don't have enough to
fund aid to developing countries meanwhile at Oakland California the
First Congregational Church is urging its members not to call the police ever
no matter what the problem is for the stated purpose of protecting non-whites
in the congregation from police violence Nigel frosh once led the UK Independence
Party and he joins us now Nigel thanks for coming on I wanted to ask you about
this because you have an international perspective and I I don't think these
trends for just American I mean I think these impulses are so shared by a lot of
the people in charge of the world the West yeah and one of the driving
impulses seems to be masochism or the desire to destroy our civilization even
suicidal in some cases but the idea that you're not allowed to defend yourself
seems to undergird a lot of what we're seeing have you noticed this yes not
just yourself but in fact the whole shape of society I mean George Soros is
open society foundation which he of course has poured billions of dollars
into I mean this is the biggest political campaigning organization in
the world he wants to break down the fundamental values of our society and in
the case of Europe he doesn't want Europe to be based on
Christianity now all of this whether it's Soros or some of those very strange
people in California all of it is based on some kind of self-loathing some sort
of guilt trip about the past and in surah C's case it's a guilt trip of
course about America's about sorry Germany's wartime actions the way the
Jews were treated in America in many cases it's how the native Indians were
treated it's all based on guilt but it's not based on
reality I have to say in the case of Soros the bosses in Brussels will be
furious with his timing right now we have Italy in revolt because because the
either the new government or the attempted new government wants to get
rid of half a million illegal migrants and Soros appears to be going ever so
slightly mad right I mean look I would say that there
are a lot of sins that we collectively have committed as the society as a
civilization obviously but I sort of wonder can we continue
if those sins so shake our faith in ourselves that we refuse to defend
ourselves I mean the church in Oakland that we described in the intro is
encouraging its members not to call police even when they feel they need the
police I mean if that's not a suicidal impulse what is it I mean look you know
there are many European cities now where the total failure of our political class
to defend our judeo-christian culture which actually underpins a whole society
is it many ways what's open the doors to Islamic extremism so we are engaged in
some very very dangerous policies here the good news though is that voters are
rebelling brexit Trump the reason that's handing elections the victory of Viktor
Orban in Hungary you know whatever these people say ordinary people real people
you know those that pay their taxes are Babel or right and go to work they want
none of this I wonder what Eastern Europeans don't seem quite as guilty as
the West is it because they suffered for so long under the Soviets oh look they
suffered in many cases under Nazism and of course under the Soviets it's not so
1990 Tucker that these countries were actually free Western democracies and
they do I think it's important to realize that the church plays a much
bigger role in society in Poland and Hungary than it does in France and
Germany that's really smart nigel Faraj thank you good to see you thank you Alan
Dershowitz one of the smartest and most distinguished men on the left
but he's being exiled for refusing to abandon civil liberties for political
expedience he tells his story next
Harvard professor of law Alan Dershowitz is one of the most distinguished and
certainly one of the most famous liberals in this country increasingly
though he doesn't seem to have much of a home left on the left because he refuses
to participate in dogmatic attacks on the president
Dershowitz has sharply criticized the Muller investigation for instance he
says that anti Trump hostility is justifying attacks on civil liberties
that threaten all of us for saying that he says his liberal friends don't invite
him to dinner parties anymore and some bark at him professor Dershowitz joins
us tonight professor thanks for coming on that I was struck by this story your
account of this because you've taken unpopular really unpopular positions
some that I disagree with over the years and you haven't had this problem no
what's the difference well it's Trump the Trump changes everything just
yesterday on Martha's Vineyard there was a dinner party to which I was not my
wife and I were not invited but apparently I was the subject of the
entire conversation people asking what's happened to Dershowitz
why is he turned to the right and I wish I had been there because I would have
pointed my finger at my liberal friends and said it's all your fault
if you hadn't worked as hard for the election of Hillary Clinton as I did and
if she had been elected and they were trying to impeach or charge her I'd be
saying exactly the same things in defense of her rights as I did in
defense of the rights of Bill Clinton and also in the defense of the rights of
Richard Nixon going back to the 1970s well I haven't changed I have not
changed they have so just as a reference point you were involved in the defense
for a little while anyway of OJ Simpson who I think it's credibly accused of
murdering two people with a knife when you went to Martha's Vineyard during
those years 95 90 60 people attacked you with dinner parties for that a little
bit but not as much as this it's never been like this and this time you know it
includes some of my relatives as I said the only thing that hurts me is that up
until now people who are my relatives would tell me Oh
people come over to you and say you're related to alan dershowitz Wow now they
say you're related to alan dershowitz how can you justify what I'm saying
about Donald Trump so it affects my relatives and that hurts me I have a
thick skin I've been doing this for years I've developed the thickest skin
imaginable by the way a lot of the tweets that I get hundreds of tweets and
messages a lot of them not only focus on what I've been saying about the
constitutional rights of Donald Trump but they related to me being pro-israel
and Jewish and making anti-semitic thing out of it as well and so you know
there's not only some too much anti-semitism on the right there's quite
a bit of it on the anti-trump left as well I'm feeling it
I've noticed that so I mean you've been at this for I don't wouldn't even want
to guess half a century an awfully long time at that kind of forefront of the
civil libertarian left has that group shrunk I mean is it not just trumpet
maybe the left is less interested in traditional civil liberties than it used
to be drunk there are no civil libertarians left on the left
certainly not the American Civil Liberties Union they were the ones who
said that the raid on Cohen's office taking his lawyer client files was a
good thing not even suggesting what I suggested and what was ultimately
adopted by the judge to have a judicial monitor going through all of these
emails the ACLU is dead in the water when it comes to defending the civil
liberties of people who they don't agree with and that's just awful there are
still some civil libertarians left but you can count them on one hand
everybody has to pass the shoe on the other foot test if the shoe were on your
foot would you be taking the same position you're taking today I passed
that test there are some others who pass that test but too many both on the right
and on the left is the test if Hillary Clinton had been elected a lot of the
people who are supporting me and defending me on the right would be
attacking me for criticizing the prosecution or the impeachment of
Hillary Clinton we need neutral principles we need
standards of constitutionality that are apolitical at high readings
to allow partisan politics to preempt my views on the Constitution which might
have stayed the same for 50 years Amen when when the FBI broke into the
gmail account of that creepy Governor Eliot Spitzer I defended that creepy
Governor Eliot Spitzer he's my wrong what they did to him and
it's important professor thank you great to see you likewise
well American companies tend to be progressive in defiance in the United
States but when it comes to dealing with China's autocrats they are meek and
submissive amazingly so latest installment of our series on China is
after the break
our elites are always telling you how progressive they are they tout their
commitment to diversity they fret about global warming up for any new bathroom
rule you can think of as long as it sounds modern they're classic cool mobs
basically eager to show off their open minds but their liberalism ends at the
water's edge when it comes to China our greatest rival American elites bow
deeply to the elderly fascists who run that country when the Chinese say jump a
ruling class has only one question how high considered gap the proudly liberal
clothing outfit this spring gap pulled a t-shirt from all of its stores worldwide
because that shirt featured an outline of China the image did not include
Taiwan or an obscure group of disputed islands in the South China Sea and
Beijing complained about that gap immediately destroyed the t-shirts then
the company issued a groveling crest release quote Gap Inc respects the
sovereignty and territorial integrity of China we failed to reflect the correct
map of China in other words I'm sorry for being naughty most honorable sir
gasp ROM gap promised it would never happen again that's just one of many
examples in January Marriott apologized for listing Tibet Taiwan and Hong Kong
and Macau as separate countries on an email questionnaire then Marriott fired
an employee who liked to tweet about it Mary it's obsequious apology to China's
dictator says at all quote some associates don't understand or take
seriously enough the sovereignty and territorial integrity of China clearly
written by the Chinese offending China is now a fireable offense in this
country American Express Citibank Goldman Sachs they all agree those
companies have all changed online content to eliminate suggestions that
Taiwan and China are separate countries even though of course they are separate
countries the Chinese insist American companies lie about that and so they do
Hollywood's been doing it for years the movie studios have been obedient to
China's rulers probably for more than a decade asked Richard Gere the actor he
says now he has trouble getting worked because his views on Tibet offend
Chinese officials in 2016 the movie Doctor Strange producers cast a white
woman in the role of a Tibetan character why they do that doesn't sound like the
diversity doctrine at work it's not but they did it anyway why well the
screenwriter explained that casting an ethnic Tibetan would make Chinaman
so they couldn't in 2012 a remake of Red Dawn changed the bad guy from China
North Korea why you know because they didn't want to offend Beijing how eager
are American elites to do the bidding of their Chinese masters ask yourself this
whatever happened to the Dali Lama remember him he used to be a hero to
Americans especially American liberals they loved him
you almost never hear his name anymore it turns out the Chinese government
doesn't like him for his human rights activism so under pressure from the
Chinese government his appearances by the Dalai Lama have been cancelled
around the world including shamefully in this country the diol AMA may be a great
moral leader but China pays the bills Frank wolf is a rare former member of
Congress who has been sounding the alarm on China for a very long time and he
joins us now congressman I'm grateful to have you you really are one of the very
few former members of Congress who is pointing out the human rights abuses in
China and is willing to say what is true which is they're bullying us
why is that why aren't more saying well I don't know talker but you're right I
mean the hundred forty-two Tibetan monks and nuns support carrying on a body set
themselves aflame there are we here muscle children thousands thousands
being taken away to detention camps Catholic Bishops right now right right
now as well as you're being rounded up thousands many many many thousands in
the in detention camp almost like Stalinist camps and catholic bishops
missing to kashyap chris smith took holy communion from bishop su he's never been
seen again Protestant pastors are being arrested I mean it is it is as bad
today's has ever been since that's now and you're exactly right I mean Richard
Gere will never make another another movie AMC is been sold to the Chinese
other studios have been sold and they censor you and then they sent you besaid
if you run that Richard Gere will never be in a major movie so without naming
names because that this is a very small city and you've been here for a long
time but looking out across the city you know a lot of lobbyists law and served
in Congress what percentage would you say are on the payroll in some way with
China well I'll say some names I mean one of the bigger firms in town Squires
Patton Boggs they represent two Chinese government
they also represent Basheer the indicted war criminal from Sudan who's been
indicted for genocide Suarez Pam Boggs they represent them so would you say
that many different lobbying outfits PR firms in Washington in some way take
money from the Chinese and yes they they do what's just interesting during the
80s when I got elected when Ronald Reagan was here no company no PR firm no
law firm would have ever represents the Soviet Union and now so many are
represented chummy force choirs patton boggs to represent Basheer the President
of Sudan who is an indicted war criminal for a genocide what took place in Darfur
so the standards in a stand of totally do you think that that may be connected
to the fact that you almost you hear a lot about Russia but you never hear
anything about China's human rights abuses they're connected the the human
rights abuses and religion like a religious freedom is worth today in
China than it's been since the days of now and don't forget President Xi has
now pointed himself president for life it is terrible that's why I can't
understand it very fact that thousands of Muslim kids are being taken away I
had a Muslim woman come by my office about two months ago thirty five of her
grandchildren have been taken and put in these detention kids I urge you to
google when the Shepards we're doing actually it's just it's been next week
we're gonna do a segment on Chinese human rights abuses and you would think
that American liberals would care but they don't do you view and I appreciate
it congressman thank you for coming on Thank You great to see you think British
authorities arrested Tommy Robinson for trying to cover sexual abuse in Great
Britain and they covered up their arrest of him that's not the first time it has
happened in Great Britain sadly Kitty Hopkins here with an update next
