WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:04.320 Back home and there. If somebody had said after they lost the first game 2 00:00:04.360 --> 00:00:06.960 of the Phillies they'd win two of the next three, you would say that's 3 00:00:06.960 --> 00:00:11.759 pretty good. So the Reds are doing magnificently in Fraego compared to what's happened 4 00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:15.919 in years past. But until then, of course, Leland vidits with News 5 00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:19.719 Nation is one of the stars Money through Friday in the Evening and Leland Videt 6 00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:23.079 welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Leland, I've watched some of 7 00:00:23.079 --> 00:00:30.960 your coverage recently about the funding of these Hamas protests over most major college campuses, 8 00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:34.079 especially in New York City. And if someone had told me that in 9 00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:39.039 New York City, where Jews have made such unbelievable contributions to the culture, 10 00:00:39.159 --> 00:00:42.719 to the finance of life in New York City, I would not have believed 11 00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:47.679 it. But you've done some research to indicate that possibly there's a funding source 12 00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:53.320 that might thread its way through Black Lives Matter and TIFA Occupy Wall Street. 13 00:00:53.560 --> 00:00:58.280 Now Hamas, can you explain that to the American people? All the same 14 00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:03.040 philosophy, right, the same neo Marxist ideology that was Occupy Wall Street, 15 00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:08.120 that is BLM that is now the pro Palestine, anti Israel, anti Semitism 16 00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:11.840 movement. One of the leaders, for example, at Columbia started as a 17 00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:17.239 BLM organizer in twenty twenty one, and we followed him through. This is 18 00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:19.840 a guy who talks about how he hates white people. Then he talked about 19 00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:23.000 how all Zionish are supposed to die, and then you look on his Twitter 20 00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:30.120 page and it says that he's anti capitalist, anti imperialist, which is a 21 00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:34.319 resistance code for America in the West. So their ideology is pretty clear. 22 00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:40.560 Who is funding these folks. New York Post says reporting out that it's Soros 23 00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:45.840 backed groups that are funding a lot of this, which you know, there's 24 00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:49.040 a rich irony there. And to be fair, you know there were there 25 00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:53.560 were Jews who supported the Nazis. The Nazi pop Party came to rise in 26 00:01:53.719 --> 00:02:00.079 Germany right right up until the point that the Gestapo arrested them all, So 27 00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:07.959 that does exist. My warning would be twofold one is the irony that we've 28 00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:12.080 always been told that anti Semitism and hatred and everything else was coming really in 29 00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:15.840 terms of a threat from the right, much more from the left. But 30 00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:22.400 the anti Semitism, the jew hatred, the calling for the murder of Jesus. 31 00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:28.000 That's really the beginning and a vessel for this ideology. And BLM tried 32 00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:32.400 it in twenty twenty and in twenty twenty one to bring the neo Marxist ideology 33 00:02:32.439 --> 00:02:39.120 and brought it onto college campuses through what is a otherwise meaningful and important conversation 34 00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:44.319 black lives matter. They didn't care about black lives any people don't care about 35 00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:49.560 the Palestinians either. This is this is a vessel for their ideology and to 36 00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:55.919 try to organize around so the unwashed college kids, many self indulgent rich kids, 37 00:02:55.960 --> 00:03:00.319 generally Columbia. A friend of mine has a son there about seventy five 38 00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:05.199 thousand dollars a year. Every year he's going to spend three hundred thousand dollars 39 00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:09.039 in this education. And your reporting seems to indicate this group called Students for 40 00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:15.400 Justice in Palestine, the SJP parent organizations funded by George Soros, the billionaire 41 00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:21.240 serious money. How about? The group provides eight hundred dollars for its community 42 00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:25.280 based fellows in between three and four thousand dollars for campus based and fellows in 43 00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:31.199 return for spending eight hours a week organizing campaigns led by Palestinian organizations. And 44 00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:36.560 so what they do is locate leaders or transplant the leaders of this left wing 45 00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:40.759 socialist Marxist organization on the major college campuses. The kids are milling around without 46 00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:45.159 much to do. They couldn't identify Israel a Gaza on a map, and 47 00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:51.000 so these individuals rile them up against the Jews, and then George Soros provides 48 00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:55.319 serious thousands of dollars in each college campus to shut it down. Can you've 49 00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:59.840 been at this a long time? Well, what's the goal George Soros at 50 00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:03.159 SAI or his left wing groups chaos, whether it's George Floyd and Tafa, 51 00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:09.199 Black Lives Matter, Occupy Wall Street, hamas Palestinians long term goal? George 52 00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:12.439 Soros is almost ninety years old, but his sons are now involved, and 53 00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:15.120 they might be more leftist and Marxist than George. What's the automate goal? 54 00:04:15.279 --> 00:04:21.319 Just to destroy this country from within and we collapse on ourselves. The stated 55 00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:28.519 goal is to destroy the western liberal ideology, and liberal has taken on for 56 00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:30.639 some to meet, you know, to be a derby word. Well, 57 00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:35.480 the liberal ideas are what built America right. A liberal idea is free speech 58 00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:41.199 a liberal idea is that our rights come from God, not from man. 59 00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:46.199 Liberal idea is that you have the power to speak out against the government. 60 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:53.079 These are all liberal ideas and that is what they in the end seek to 61 00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:57.839 destroy. Capitalism is a liberal idea, you know, the idea that this 62 00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:03.240 social mobility is a liberal idea. All of these Western ideals that we believe 63 00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:11.879 self evident essentially are are at risk when these organizations take root. And I 64 00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:15.600 would add to that, you know, this funding goes a little bit deeper, 65 00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:19.240 right because you look at these protests and you see all the tents are 66 00:05:19.279 --> 00:05:23.839 the same color, exact same tents. Well, okay, that doesn't happen 67 00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:29.319 by accident. All the food that's coming in the funding. I'm sitting here 68 00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:31.240 watching and this is based on my time in the moles. But there's guys 69 00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:35.160 with Hamas sweatshirts. There's guys with hesbal Off lags. You don't over You 70 00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:40.199 don't go down to your local seven eleven and buy a hesbeal offlag. No, 71 00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:45.720 right, these things come from different places. And I understand what you 72 00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:46.439 say. You know, hey, a bunch of kids are milling around. 73 00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:49.600 They have no idea, you know, their board somebody offers them a free 74 00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:55.399 doughnut and they go chant from the river to the sea. Fine, if 75 00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:59.680 at some level college kids have been known to do odd things. But at 76 00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:03.800 this point, when you see the signs and you read the signs now that 77 00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:06.560 are up, and you hear the chance, and you hear what's being said, 78 00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:14.720 it becomes increasingly difficult to dismiss these people as just misguided college kids. 79 00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:17.120 You know, I always sort of think of the opposite, Right, if 80 00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:21.480 there were a bunch of clan rallies on college campuses around the country, right, 81 00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:26.199 Okay, we wouldn't be going. Well, I'm sure there are some 82 00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:30.000 kids who, you know, they're just interested in educating rule whites. That's 83 00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:34.759 really their concern. They don't believe all the hateful stuff speariment. It wouldn't 84 00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:40.040 work that way, and some of the and so News Nation does it. 85 00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:45.800 But why doesn't the so called quote legitimate media go after the funding of these 86 00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:48.000 individuals. Many times in the story in New York Post, also in News 87 00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:53.800 Nation, you have the photos of the individuals leading these protests. Pizzas are 88 00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:58.519 delivered, bail bond projects are set up. You have elan Omar her daughter, 89 00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:00.639 as I guess temporarily kicked out of Columbia, she's like a hero. 90 00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:05.279 Did the students know they're being played? Do the students know that they're just 91 00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:12.040 useful idiots in this national march to destroy America through the capturing the minds of 92 00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:15.279 our young kids. Do the actual college kids know that they're clowns or do 93 00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:19.680 they think they're involved in something greater than themselves? Well, they probably think 94 00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:25.920 they're involved in something greater themselves and they're bored. And to a larger extent 95 00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:29.560 though, two points on that one from a media standpoint, they're just not 96 00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:33.360 covering it. Right. We pulled up the front pages of ABCNBC, I 97 00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:40.639 believe CBS yesterday there wasn't a mention of this. Okay, so that is 98 00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:45.319 one part of it, you know, the liberal ideology is becoming inherently illiberal. 99 00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:51.160 But the second point is this isn't just the students. My alma mater, 100 00:07:51.720 --> 00:08:03.680 Northwestern professors formed chain around the protesters, were anting deeply anti semitic chance 101 00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:11.199 they surrounded the protesters to protect the protesters from the police. Okay, so 102 00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:15.800 this is the faculty too. The faculty of these schools is giving kids time 103 00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:20.800 off to protest at Colombia. They're obviously not throwing any of these kids off 104 00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:24.120 campus. So to just say, oh, this is just kids. No, 105 00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:26.480 I'm old enough to remember when silence was violence, right, And this 106 00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:35.440 isn't even silenced by the administration. This is willful aiding and embedding their behavior. 107 00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:39.799 And that at a different level, I think than we've seen before. 108 00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:46.000 I have a couple quotes here from tenured professors at Columbia. One of them, 109 00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:50.279 his first name is Hakamud, says that wherever there's terror in the world, 110 00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:54.639 you will find the Jew. Whenever there's someone being starved to death, 111 00:08:54.679 --> 00:08:58.759 you'll find the Jew. Whenever you see a holocaust occurring, you will find 112 00:08:58.759 --> 00:09:05.519 the And so when you talk about professors at Northwestern and talk about professors at 113 00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:09.600 Columbia, these are the elite professors. And these aren't at some trade school, 114 00:09:09.919 --> 00:09:15.000 This isn't at my alma maters Avia University. That these are the elite 115 00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:20.480 jobs paying two to three hundred thousand a year, not teaching, but essentially 116 00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:24.360 indoctrinating the kids. And so, how is it possible in New York City 117 00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:31.679 you can have large numbers of college professors with anti Jewish hate phrases being thrown 118 00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:35.799 around, and the president and the board of trustees knows it going on. 119 00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:39.480 In fact, one of the worst examples he was hired in January of this 120 00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:46.399 year and he was virulently anti Semitic, a Jew hating Muslim Islamist. And 121 00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:48.399 I would add again, I say this every time I say this, Leland 122 00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:52.879 Vitterck that I live a little Cincinnati, Ohio, and in America there's about 123 00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:58.879 four to five million Muslims who have nothing to do with the terror on the 124 00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:03.120 left. Fact, there's one e mom that I mentioned a few days ago 125 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:07.240 in Dearborn who confronted those who are saying kill the Jews, kill Americans, 126 00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:11.840 and this mom stood up against that hate speech. But it is acceptable to 127 00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:16.480 use hate speech on college campuses today as long as the object is a Jew. 128 00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:22.159 How's that possible? These professors can get hired by those like Robert Kraft, 129 00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:26.360 who's on the board, was on the board of Columbia, that Jews 130 00:10:26.440 --> 00:10:31.799 dominate the board, and Jews dominate many of the top positions in Columbia, 131 00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:35.600 New York University, whatever it might be, I would assume Northwestern, but 132 00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:39.559 they turn a blind eye to the hate that comes out of their own campus. 133 00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:43.279 I would go once and further, not only do they turn a blind 134 00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:50.840 eye to it, but they are unwilling to deal with the root cause right, 135 00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:54.919 which is an illiberal ideology that has come through college campuses. And they 136 00:10:54.919 --> 00:11:03.000 are more interested in being accepted and being invited to the right parties and seen 137 00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:09.159 as part of the liberal elite and uh, you know, thought well of 138 00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:13.759 by mourning Joe, than they are about standing up for what is right. 139 00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:18.519 And I would I would issue this warning. It starts with the Jews, 140 00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:24.080 it never ends there, and that the you know it started with you know, 141 00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:26.840 this is not an anti Semitic movement. This is an anti American movement 142 00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:33.919 that started with Occupy Wall Street, went through BLM and now is using quote 143 00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:41.200 unquote Palestine as that same vessel. And that the hatred towards Jews is what 144 00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:46.720 is currently being allowed now. Obviously the rhetoric since BLM has gotten ramped up, 145 00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:48.720 but they're they're saying the thing that BLM was always deeply anti Semitic, 146 00:11:50.600 --> 00:11:54.480 the irony right and the true irony. I'm glad you brought the mom in 147 00:11:54.559 --> 00:12:00.000 Detroit one. Yes, he much more likely to be harmed by fellow Muslims 148 00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:03.320 than he is by any Jews for anybody else. So the dirty little secret 149 00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:07.960 of the Middle East is you don't see any pro Hamas protests in the Middle 150 00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:13.480 East because that world knows what Hamas does, that world knows what the Muslim 151 00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:18.240 brotherhood does. So I think there's a real point to be made here that 152 00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:20.720 if you are truly pro Palestinian, and we've said this a bunch on air, 153 00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.679 for truly pro Palestinian, you're not anti Israel, you're anti Hamas. 154 00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:28.759 And that's not what's being said, that's not what's being discussed. All it 155 00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:33.600 is resistance, resistance, resistance aka kill the Jews, Kill the Jews, 156 00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:37.720 kill the Jews. This is amazing. And one of the things the useful 157 00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:43.320 idiots manipulated by the Soros crowd have signs that say I can use the word 158 00:12:43.399 --> 00:12:48.799 queers for Hamas well. I thought queer was a pejorative term. It is 159 00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:54.399 not. And I guess those who hold such signs are completely oblivious to what 160 00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:58.480 happens to homosexuals or gay men or women. And almost all of the Middle 161 00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:01.639 East, you're handcuffed and thrown off the top of buildings, are set on 162 00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:07.240 fire. And so it's like explain that how that that doesn't make any sense 163 00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:09.600 at all. No, it doesn't, it doesn't. And there's a lot 164 00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:13.960 of this that doesn't make any sense. And I think if you you sat 165 00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:18.360 there and talked to any of not any a lot of these kids, and 166 00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:22.360 so tell me, you know where is Palestine? Right? When? When? 167 00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:24.879 When was Palestine? What was the language of Palestine? What's the currency 168 00:13:24.879 --> 00:13:28.480 of Palestine? On and on? They wouldn't know. But it doesn't exist, 169 00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:30.399 and they don't know that it doesn't exist, and on and on and 170 00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:35.399 on, and there's some there's some clips going around about that. What I 171 00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:41.000 what bothers me is the willingness to then go, oh, well, these 172 00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:46.000 kids are just misguided. No, and I go back to if if you 173 00:13:46.039 --> 00:13:50.360 were, if you're at a clan rally, this is it's not a pro 174 00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:56.879 white rule, white education rally. It's it's a racist, anti black, 175 00:13:56.440 --> 00:14:01.120 terrible thing. Okay. So so I don't understand, And look, I 176 00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:05.440 think about it every day when it's this pro Palestine rally or pro Palestinian rally. 177 00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:07.799 No, it's not. It doesn't have any do it to Palestinians. 178 00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:13.840 And we know that because they're actually not demonstrating against the people who are throwing 179 00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:20.080 Palestinians off buildings and stealing their aid and imprisoning them and killing them. No, 180 00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:24.639 it's so no great point. I would I would, I would say 181 00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:28.799 we have moved and it looks is dangerous. Anti Semitism is and is personal 182 00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:33.759 of an issue as it is to me. We've moved past that. Yes, 183 00:14:33.799 --> 00:14:37.240 these are all antisemitic. This, this is all. This has gone 184 00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:41.519 beyond antisemitism to Jew hatred and calling for the murder of Jews. But there's 185 00:14:41.559 --> 00:14:45.679 a deeper ideology here upon which that is the vessel. And I think that's 186 00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:50.440 the story the so called legacy media doesn't want to touch because it reflects so 187 00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:56.559 poorly upon the education system that we have and the fact that our freedoms have 188 00:14:56.639 --> 00:15:01.840 been weaponized against us by groups international. I loved your analogy. In the 189 00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:05.519 nineteen thirties, there were Jews for Nazis until they came for them after Crystal 190 00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:07.919 Night, and then oh my god, look what have we got here? 191 00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:13.720 And right now there are college presidents, boards of trustees and others that have 192 00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:18.000 to tow the company line, which is hate the Jew. But ultimately they 193 00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:22.919 will come for them too. And the fact that could happen in this country. 194 00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:28.399 If somebody had told me this here or two ago, I wouldn't have 195 00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:31.759 believed it because I practiced law for twenty years in a Jewish law firm, 196 00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:39.240 and I love the cultural awareness that alerted me to various events in the Jewish 197 00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:43.039 community in Cincinnati, which is very alive and very vibrant, and I thought, 198 00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:46.240 this is great, man, we're over the hump. Well, guess 199 00:15:46.279 --> 00:15:48.600 what, We're not over the hump. And I like to see the FBI, 200 00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:52.919 the Department of Justice go after these funding of these groups and say these 201 00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:58.679 are real criminal activities that have real consequences. And right now Jews may be 202 00:15:58.679 --> 00:16:00.879 beaten. The next one some car out of control to kill a bunch of 203 00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:03.559 them, and at that point, God knows what's going to happen, and 204 00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:08.080 this movement will metastasize them in some other way. But Leland Vender, once 205 00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:14.120 again, I'll be watching the News Nation Monday through Friday, seven o'clock on. 206 00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:17.200 And thanks for putting a sharper point on this. So what's happening? 207 00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:19.320 And once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. And 208 00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:25.080 good luck, Leland Vitter, Thank you very much. Godluck though well let's 209 00:16:25.080 --> 00:16:29.279 continue. Well, there it is. What if the FBI, the CIA, 210 00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:33.840 the Department of Justice did not care about paperwork mistakes and spent millions and 211 00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:41.679 millions of dollars in thousands of hours holding responsible these international leftist Marxist movements that 212 00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:45.679 are destroying college campuses. Wouldn't that be interesting? Let's continue with more Bill 213 00:16:45.720 --> 00:16:51.120 Cunningham, Home of Your Reds and News Radio seven hundred WLW.
