Wanna know more about Antifa? Watch The True History of Antifa by @JackPosobiec Posobiec explores the origins and evolution of this dangerous group, as well as its tactics and ideology which go back years. https://t.co/LUPwTeSI8d
Video Transcript AI Summary
Antifa’s roots go back to Weimar Germany. Ernst Thalmann founded Antifaschista Aktion in 1932 and led the Red Front, a Marxist street brigade. Thalmann, “hand selected by the Stalinists,” was Moscow’s man in Germany and ordered to oppose the Social Democrats to undermine the Weimar Republic; he ran in 1932. Antifa formed in 1933 to destabilize the regime; the Red Front was banned; Thalmann was arrested in 1933 and shot in Buchenwald after eleven years. The Ernst Talmon Brigade fought in Spain. In West Germany, Ulrich Meinhof joined the Red Army faction, committing acts including “three pipe bombs at the United States Army headquarters in Frankfurt” (May 11, 1972), Hamburg bombing, Heidelberg embassy hostage, 1975 Stockholm embassy seizure, 1977 German Autumn; Meinhoff died in prison in 1976, ruled suicide; RAF linked to PLO; Lufthansa 181 hijacking. Antifa today is described as wokeified, embracing cultural Marxism; calls for national renewal.

Speaker 0: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard to a special edition of Human Events, Jack Pesowicz. We are gonna do this show, powered by Turning Point USA, all about the history of Antifa, because it occurred to me that I have written a book on the history of Antifa, and it is called Stories from Inside the Black Block. But it's been a while since we've really had a conversation about them, and it's also been a while since I've really even discussed it because, look, a lot of stuff that goes on, but we needed to take time, and I know that we had time sort of over this Christmas break to be able to drill down on sub subjects that really deserve it. And I think that the history of Antifa is something that a lot of people don't understand. People think that it's this some group that spontaneously came up in 2020 or maybe even 2016, 2017, folks who don't remember.
There are people even who don't remember the fact that Antifa attacked Trump's inauguration. I was there. I was there with with my wife, who was my fiancee at the time, Tanya Tay. I was there with my brother. We were on the road where they stormed the highway across 395 in DC.
All the while, their people were down on the street smashing Starbucks, smashing windows, setting cars on fire. All of this happened. All of this was true. They also went to our inaugural party, the ball called the Deplorable that we held the night before. It was myself, Mike Cernovich, others called it the Deplorable, and I said, well, if most inaugural balls are the day of inauguration, we should do one the night before, so we held it then.
And we had hundreds of Antifa out in the streets attacking people, setting fires, throwing things at our guests, throwing things at my parents, d batteries. Got this on video. But people don't wanna actually talk about the true history of communism, the true history that we've lived through. And so what I wanted to do in this book was also go back to the fact that Antifa didn't even start then. They started years and years before.
And, in fact,
Speaker 1: the history of anarcho socialist terrorism
Speaker 0: throughout the world, particularly Western Europe, Eastern Europe, and The United States, goes back to the eighteen hundreds. We had anarcho socialist uprisings in The United States, the Haymarket riots in Chicago where they killed police officers, the Wall Street bombing, the assassination of president McKinley that led to Teddy Roosevelt becoming our youngest president. He was killed by an anarcho socialist in Buffalo, New York by the name of Leon Czolgosz. So
Speaker 1: this is a rich history, but the history of communism is not taught to you. It's not taught in schools. It's not taught through Hollywood movies. There's no movies about it. There aren't any mass market books about it, but there is Jack Posobic, and here's human events, and we're gonna tell you the true history of Antifa.
Now the seeds of what would become the present version of Antifa worldwide were actually planted all the
Speaker 0: way back in nineteen thirties Germany. Yeah. That's right. The Weimar Republic. The group likes to present itself as the inheritor of a tradition of fighting fascism, but is this true?
Speaker 1: Well, the first eponymous
Speaker 0: Antifa group was Antifaschista Aktshon, and it was founded by a Soviet agent and a committed Stalinist who's named Ernst Talmann in 1932 in Weimar, Germany. And if you don't know the name Ernst Thalmann, then perhaps you haven't been studying the true history of Antifa. Now like many of the critical figures in Germany in the nineteen thirties, he was a product of World War one, defeat of the Kaiser, weakening of the country's spiritual foundation, the deterioration. That was the Weimar Republic. Of course, this is the same deterioration and collapse that led to the rise of Adolf Hitler.
And Hitler's popular appeal in Germany at the time, the Weimar Republic, was principally based in the widespread belief that German communists would use the economic chaos of the depression as a vehicle for taking power and installing a regime like the Bolshevik dictatorship that had been established in The USSR, whereas Hitler at the time was seen by many Germans as more rational and less terrifying of of an as an alternative to communism. This fear was then magnified by a Soviet agent who had become the leader of the Communist Party of Germany. What was his name? Ernst Thalmann, later the founder of Antifa. Ernst Thalmann, working class, born in 1886 in Hamburg, three years and four days older than Hitler, working class upbringing.
His father was a coachman, tended a bar down at the docks in Hamburg. Hamburg is a dock town. It's a city it's water town, a port town. Tallman grew up rubbing shoulders with the sort of rough types that you'd expect in both locales in prewar Germany. At one point, both of his parents turned to petty crime, and they were apprehended, causing them to briefly break up.
So Tallman gets is born from broken home, poor economics, decides to join
Speaker 1: the military, gets drafted, fights in World War one. He then fled his unit in 1917, joining a pro Communist organization that later became the Communist Party of Germany. Talmud
Speaker 0: became one of these leaders because unlike many others associated with the Communist Party, certainly in The USSR and the Bolsheviks, Talmud actually had a working class background. And when you look at Lenin, when you look at a lot of these people, they don't have Trotsky, they don't have a true working class background themselves, and that's why that's why Lenin comes up with this phrase, the the the vanguard of the working class, the vanguard of the proletariat. Talmud doesn't need to be part the vanguard. Talmud himself, he's a working class soldier, came up from nothing, decided to go into the Communist Party. It's really through that military that gets himself up to the next level.
So he becomes the leader of the Central Party, the most important Communist in all of Hamburg. And the Communist Party is on the rise, because as the Communist Party is rising, you've also got the National Socialist Workers' Party on the rise. But both of them viewed their greatest enemy not as one another. They viewed as their enemy the regime. They viewed as their enemy the republic, and the ruling party of the
Speaker 1: time is Social Democrats, the Social Democrat Party.
Speaker 0: So in many cases, you actually saw the National Socialist Workers' Party and the Communist Party working together, that's right, working together while targeting the regime. They held strikes
Speaker 1: together, held demonstrations together. Oh, certainly, they
Speaker 0: were rivals as well, and certainly, there was mass fighting, but people need to understand that the actual history is far more complex than any Antifa member would have you believe today. They would say, oh, we always opposed Hitler, and that's all it was, and we tried to stop him, and and we eventually didn't, and and that's the end. Not true. Not true. You actually did work together.
We've got the proof. We've got the documents. We've got an entire book about it. But I wanna tell you we're gonna we're gonna get into this in the next segment about a in a group that predated Antifa, and it was called the red front. The Rot Front, aka the Red Front.
This was the original Marxist street brigade of Germany, and it was founded as well by Ernst Thalmann all the way back in the nineteen twenties. Now interestingly enough, the Red Front, Roth Front, used military terms for arranging and training its recruits. This is back in the twenties. So they had squads, platoons, comraderies, regiments even. Believe it or not, they even had a navy.
They had a paramilitary navy called the Red Navy. This was how active this was. And so people know, of course, about the Hitler Youth that later was established by the Nazis, but did you know that there was also a Red Youth, Rotorjungstrom? And I'm sorry. I don't speak German very well.
But they they held summer camps set up for communist youth in Germany for the purposes of training and indoctrination and also included courses on military drill, ceremony, and fitness. Now it
Speaker 1: was a full fledged political tool.
Speaker 0: It wasn't the same clandestine operation that Antifa exists as today. This is a huge difference, huge difference, but it kept with that military motif, and they actually had to take a vow. Every member of the Red Front swore the following oath. I vow to never forget that world imperialism is preparing the war against the Soviet Union. So even they knew that the Soviet Union was the the country and organization that they swore allegiance to.
Keep in mind, this is only a few years, not even a decade, since the takeover of the communists in Russia. So communism is very new, and it's it feels like communism is on the upswing. And these groups, they're funded, of course, of course, by by the Soviets. Talmud himself was hand selected by the Stalinists. He flew to Moscow, served in the honor guard at the funeral of Vladimir Lenin, and then is sent back to be Moscow's man in Germany, leads the Communist Party, sets up the Red Front fighting group, sets up all of this directly on the orders of Trotsky.
Why? Because Talman is the man that they view is gonna be their candidate not only to run for president, and he does end up running in the election against Hitler, but he is the man that they view will deliver Germany to them. And here's the other part, because Talmud knew to follow orders. Talmud never questioned his orders, and we'll get into what happened because of that. But you can go and look at all of this.
In 1931, Talmud and Hitler joining forces in an unsuccessful attempt to dissolve the parliament of Prussia. Moscow ordered Talmud to oppose the Social Democrats even in the face of Hitler's rise. Tommen comes in third in 1932 running against Hitler and running and then it's Hindenburg who ends
Speaker 1: up winning. However, just before 1933, when Hitler is able to solidify his rule in becoming chancellor, that's when Antifa is finally formed. So the Red Front gets banned at this point
Speaker 0: because the Social Democrats realize that the communists are insane, and it's very easy to paint them as foreign agents because, obviously, they are, so they get banned. So Talmon realizes he has to come up with something new, a new type of group that has yet to be banned. In July 1932, Talmud inaugurated Antifaschista Action, Antifa, and he knew from the start that the word antifascist was simply a word to get around the fact that he couldn't be called communist because the communist fighting groups had been banned. The communist brigades had already been banned at this point. And what did he really want?
He wanted a way so that his fighting groups could go up against the brown shirts, could go up against the Iron Front, the Fry Corps, so many of the other because this this in Weimar Germany, Weimar Republic, every major political group had a military wing, so the original Antifa, the militant group wing of it, was was it was the military wing of the Communist Party of Germany in the Weimar Republic. And so his attempt to bring people into this was not directly targeted, and this is what people need to undersay because Antifa's propaganda misleads about the true origins. In November 1931, the Communist Party newspaper printed an open address to the Nazi Party, calling them the united front of the proletariat who carried out their revolutionary duty. Just before Antifa was founded, the Communist Party held a large meeting in May 1932 with the Nazi party that included a Nazi speaker and hundreds of Nazi participants. Then in November 1932, Nazis and Communists took part.
This is after the founding of Antifa, took part in a transportation strike at the street level. They both viewed themselves as enemies of the system. In fact, there's a term that arose because of this, and that's called beefsteak Nazi. And what was a beefsteak Nazi? The idea was that you're brown on the outside, red on the inside.
Get it? Beefsteak. So former members of the communists who later became members of the brown shirts. So at at the street level, you had people that were switching sides all the time because they both viewed themselves as the vanguard of the proletariat. These are Marxist ideals and socialist ideals.
And at some level, it's just street toughs that are looking for an excuse to fight, looking for an excuse to get rowdy. But that's why you see this tieover. Now, of course, there's the double flag symbol of Antifa. Originally, it was two red flags. Now you have a black flag and a red flag.
Originally, the two red flags were simple because this was communism. Now you see the black flag and the red flag together. That's the addition of anarchism to communism, and that's what Antifa stands for today. But remember, it was Moscow and Stalin who specifically ordered Ernst Thalmann and the original Antifa not to focus on Hitler, not to focus on the rise of the Nazi party, but to work with him to undermine the Weimar Republic. It was those orders that he was directly called upon to follow.
But then, of course, we know what
Speaker 1: happened. We know that Hitler does come to power because they do destabilize the country, because Antifa's purpose was the destabilization of the traditional system or at
Speaker 0: least the established system in this case.
Speaker 1: But who comes to power? Not them. They used to have
Speaker 0: a phrase for this. They would say first Hitler, then us. Well, guess what? The Us never happened. Because when Hitler comes to power, who do you think are the very first people
Speaker 1: that he arrests? It's the communists. It's the people who thought that they were working with their friends.
Speaker 0: And Talman, he gets dimed out by his own communist buddies. We'll explain what happened to him in the next segment.
Speaker 1: So Ernst Thalmann, 03/03/1933, gets arrested, gets imprisoned,
Speaker 0: was informed on by his own neighbor,
Speaker 1: his own buddy, one of his other communist friends. So he does get arrested. And then for eleven years, Ernst Thalmann is held in prison. He eventually gets sent to the concentration camp at Buchenwald.
Speaker 0: Now Talmon's wife, interestingly enough, Rosa, so so his wife spends those eleven years trying
Speaker 1: to get him out. And folks remember that towards the end
Speaker 0: of the nineteen thirties and certainly 1939, just prior to the invasion of Poland and the carve up of Poland by Russia, The Soviet Union, and Germany, there was an agreement signed between the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. That was called the Molotov Ribbentrop Nonaggression Pact. And believe it or not, one of the slogans during that time was long live comrade Talman. The USSR was promoting this, and Talman was seen as sort of a revolutionary prisoner. In fact, even in the Spanish Civil War, the International Brigade of the nine of the Spanish Civil War, the brigade that all the foreigners came into to support the communists, to support the anarchists.
When communists and anarchists and writers and journalists all arrived in Spain to fight for the communists and their failed communist takeover of Spain. Do you know what the name of the brigade was? Because that was fought while he was imprisoned. The name of the International Communist Brigade in Spain was the Ernst Talmon Brigade, founder of Antifa. So you need to understand how how big, how powerful he was at this time.
Speaker 1: This guy goes on to be called a celeb, but here's the problem. Even during and I just I just wanna show the honor of the communists. Right?
Speaker 0: Little bit of sarcasm there.
Speaker 1: They never get him released. They never even go to the Nazis. Even door even under Molotov Ribbentrop, they don't ask for him to come back.
Speaker 0: And why is this? Because here's what happens. When Rosa Talman is giving these letters and these these pledges and imploring the other communists to help get her husband out of jail, who's she giving them to?
Speaker 1: Walter Ulbricht. Now Walter Ulbricht had been
Speaker 0: sort of a a number two, sort of a lieutenant to Talmud prior to his arrest. If you know the history, Walter Ulbricht goes on to be the communist dictator of East Germany throughout the Cold War. And Ulbricht knows that if this massive communist hero gets released, then he'll retake his position at the
Speaker 1: head of a communist party. So what does Ulbrich do? He ignores the requests completely. Ignores all of them. And so
Speaker 0: Talman stays in jail. He stays in jail the entire time. This was his reward for following the orders of Stalin, for following the orders of Moscow, for following the orders of Leon Trotsky, the founder of Antifa, where he actually kind of gets forgotten by Hitler in in the midst of World War two and everything else that's happening. But at one point and throughout these these eleven years, he's always held in solitary confinement the entire time. Never once does Talman renounce communism.
Speaker 1: He gets one visit with his wife later, and
Speaker 0: there's a there's a story there's a rumor that she got pregnant, but she would have been her fifties. So it is what it is, like everything else in that in that
Speaker 1: era. But on the August 18, Hitler remembers him, and he has him shot and killed in Buchenwald. And so that's his reward. Communists could have got him out. They could have implored him.
They could have said, hey. This is a big guy. This is our our leader. If you want us to
Speaker 0: make this deal with you, we need him out. They didn't care.
Speaker 1: They didn't care at all because they saw him as a means to power and as a means to an end. And the same thing, by the
Speaker 0: way, happened to all the original members of Antifa under Ernst Thalmann. They were locked out. They were sent to prisons. Not not always Buchenwald, but just other prisons that Hitler had established for the enemies because this is what always happens to the useful idiots. This is what always happens to the people once they've served their purpose.
Instead of working actually for the people, when you're committed to violence, when you're committed to this type of militancy, this type of destruction,
Speaker 1: that's what you get. That is what you get for following all those orders. You get two in the back of the skull at the at the express order of Adolf Hitler. And so Antifa, which we now see today,
Speaker 0: draws on what they believe through their twisted telling of the narrative that Antifa stood up to Hitler, and it's true that that Antifa did, in a sense, rival the Nazis, but in reality, Antifa had been used by the Nazis as a destabilizing force and then as a rival, which they quickly turned on in the nineteen thirties in order to get rid of them and then establish total power. We see the exact same dynamic today as Antifa is used as a destabilizing force against our own current system, against our system of governance, against our police, against our businesses, as against our religions, as against our society. Because they're used as a revolutionary force, but they're never the ones that actually attain power themselves. Why? Because they're the first ones that you have to get rid of.
You can't have revolutionaries in the same way that Chairman Mao ends up riling up the Red Guards and then calling in the People's Liberation Army to round them up as well, because you can't rile these people up and then actually put them in positions of power. No. You dispose of them. You get rid of them. So while you might think that you're throwing on the black mask, you're throwing on
Speaker 1: the black hood, and you're saving the world from the imperialists and the fascists. In reality, all you're doing is getting played. All you're doing is getting used the exact same way that Ernst Thalmann was played and used his entire adult life by Trotsky, by Stalin, and then finally shot in Buchenwald. And so leave you with that because part two, we're gonna explain what happened to the communists in East Germany.
Speaker 0: Ladies and gentlemen, you have my permission to lay ashore. She was 41 years old, mother of two twin girls, and the West German guards had just found her hanging from the window of her prison cell. The 1976 death of one of the most notorious leftists, agitators, and terrorists in Germany was officially deemed a suicide. Some called the group she ran the Bader Meinhof Gang, though she personally preferred the name Red Army Faction. Ulrich Meinhof looked the part of an anarcho communist gangster.
In the pictures that we have of her that survived today, she has an open, honest, plain face, staring directly and immodestly at the camera. She often smokes a cigarette wearing stylish, if simplistic, clothing. Her hair is usually unapologetically short, and she's typically in men's trousers, flouting what was still a strong social convention in Germany during the sixties and seventies. Her expression is strong, fierce, unapologetic, defiance on the way to the gallows. So who was Ulrich Meinhof?
Well, believe
Speaker 1: it or not, she had
Speaker 0: been a left wing journalist. A left wing journalist who was brought up in
Speaker 1: a family of academics, strong Protestant background, family opposed to the Nazis, deeply opposed to the Nazis, yet she joined a socialist group even in West Germany back in the nineteen fifties, was completely against them. However, the Communist Party in West Germany had been banned, but by 1959, Ulrich Meinhof had been a member. Interestingly enough, and this comes up as a potential question as to her behavior later, in 1960, Ulrich Meinhof received surgery for a brain tumor, and she received a silver clamp in her skull. And so many people believe that her later behavior and her membership in a communist terrorist organization, leaving behind two twin girls, going on to perform acts of violence, acts of murder, robberies, terrorism, that all of this, potentially, this behavior could have been because that brain tumor and that surgery.
Speaker 0: So she works she takes a job with a leftist newspaper, and in 1941 or excuse me, 1961, she ends up marrying the cofounder of that paper, and they have their two twin girls, Regine and Bettina. Today, by the way, Bettina is still around. She is herself a journalist and a researcher on anarchist terrorism and communist violence and is unabashedly critical of her own mother and her own mother's agenda and methods. So the Red Army faction, Ulrich joins probably a few years after it be it first gets started because she was somebody who early on was simply a fellow traveler. She wasn't necessarily a member.
She was a supporter and was writing about them positively
Speaker 1: for her newspaper. However, as more and more actions, revolutionary attacks took place, She got divorced. Her own colleague, Rudy Deutsch, survived an assassination attempt. And now now the leader of the Badermeinhofgang, aka the Red Army faction, ends up getting imprisoned. Listen to this.
He was permitted to conduct an interview with a young and up and coming journalist, Ulrich Meinhof herself. Yet instead of an interview, Andreas Bader was sprung from jail in one of
Speaker 0: the most daring and dramatic episodes in their history. During the jailbreak, a librarian was shot and killed by one member of the Red Army faction. And in the chaos that followed, Ulrich, who had been sent there to interview him, makes a split second decision to join the group and go underground with them. Originally, she just wanted to work with them and and do her writings and and describe them. No.
She makes the decision to leave her life behind, leave her daughters behind, she's already divorced her husband, and to fully join the Red Army faction. Where does she end up? Well, just like they do today, anarchists travel to The Middle East to receive training in guerrilla tactics, terrorism, and she ends up joining and going to the PLO, the Palestinian Liberation Organization. They then, with their Jordanian handlers, clash over food and living quarters and creature comforts, you know, kind of similar to the millennial teenagers that went over to the PKK. Now she becomes estranged from her children,
Speaker 1: those daughters, ones that are still around today.
Speaker 0: But in one incident, she returns to Germany and attempts to kidnap her own daughters and have them brought to the Middle East and trained and indoctrinated by terrorists in order for them to come up and join in the revolution with her. However, this attempt was thwarted in Sicily. They were found out, and the girls were returned to her father. In Germany, Meinhof, she was a wanted woman with a reward on her head of no less than 850,000 Deutsche Marks. Now this group, the Red Army faction, we'll talk more about this as we go through,
Speaker 1: assassinations, car bombs, bank robberies, many of which were funded and financed and armed by the KGB themselves, that this was Red Army directed, trained, and funded activity that was going on in West Germany during the Cold War. And we're not
Speaker 0: talking about a long, long time ago here. This was not the nineteen thirties. This was actual communist paramilitary operations that were going on in Western Germany. And why was this being done? Because they were looking to destabilize West Germany and possibly to build up or form public opinion for communists there as well, this in the midst of the Cold War.
So what happens to Ulrich Meinhof? What happens to the Red Army faction? What attacks did they play? We're gonna talk about that, and we're also gonna talk about the way that they directly targeted US forces and American troops stationed in West Germany, stationed in Stuttgart that had been there since the end of World War two. And you have to look at it from a psychological angle as well.
What drives? Was it really the brain tumor, or was it a desire for access, action, and revolution that drove this young woman to be involved in a domestic terrorist communist plot. So people need to understand that the Red Army was no joke. This wasn't this was not the antifa of today that runs around and attacks businesses for pleasure and and gets off on threatening people in their homes. This was a serious terrorist organization.
On the May 11 1972, the Red Army faction placed three pipe bombs at the United States Army headquarters in Frankfurt. This bombing resulted in the death of a US officer and the injury of 13 people. There was another one in Hamburg. Members of the Red Army faction, six bombs at a at a publishing house. Only three of the five bombs exploded, but thirty six people were injured.
Then again, May 1972, just two weeks after, a car bomb that killed three soldiers and injured five more right at the intelligence headquarters at Campbell Barracks in Heidelberg. In '74, the group murdered Gunther von Drechtmann, the president of Germany's Superior Court of Justice. So, again and again, this organization committed horrific murders, horrific killings. 1975, the Red Army faction seized the West German embassy in Stockholm, Sweden. They took hostages.
They sell set the building to explode. They demanded the release of their own imprisoned members. Remember, this is before Ulrich Meinhof is still in prison at this point. The government, of course, refused to reque refused the request. The Red Army faction murders two of the hostages.
Then one of the bombs goes off inadvertently. Several other members finally, finally surrender. In 1975, it was actually reported because people didn't know what was going on. It was reported the Red Army faction tried to steal mustard gas from a joint facility in West Germany. However, it turns out that it wasn't them.
They merely misplaced. But then in 1977, the German Autumn took place. And this is after this is after Ulrich has died one year later, possibly even in retaliation for her death in prison, which, of course, had been ruled a suicide, but many questions
Speaker 1: still remained. The head of Dredsden Bank was shot and killed in front of his house in Germany, Zabotch kidnapping, but his own family was involved in terms of this. You
Speaker 0: had government informants. You had hostages, prisoners. Again and again in German autumn, these events keep taking place. An industrialist was was kidnapped. The president of the German Employers Association, the the Federation of German Industries, then, of course, the hijacking.
Because keep in mind
Speaker 1: so people have to go back in terms
Speaker 0: of this that the PLO also frequently targeted Germany, and we talked before about how the PLO had provided some of the early training to the Red Army faction. Of course, the PLO conducted, what, the Munich massacre in 1972 at the Summer Olympics where? In Munich, West Germany. What was the Munich massacre? Eight members of Black September infiltrated the Olympic Village and murdered two Israeli Olympic team members and took the other nine hostage.
Did they receive support on the ground from the Red Army faction? What do you think? So you have to understand that these were communist groups working with the Palestinians inside Germany, provided that fertile ground for all of this to take place. And, in fact, at one point in the Munich massacre, prior to the Munich massacre, this was when, some of the people that were asked to be released included the founders of the Red Army faction, Andreas Bader and Ulrich Meinhof. So they're involved in the Munich massacre right there.
Then you have the hijacking of Lufthansa flight one eight one. Again, the popular front for the liberation of Palestine. This was conducted in that same German 1977. Conducted in October. 86 passengers.
Finally, the West German counterterrorism group, backed by the Somalis, stormed the aircraft where? Mogadishu. Somalia.
Speaker 1: During the Cold War, the Red Army faction continued attacks, continued terrorism all the
Speaker 0: way up through by the way, this inspires the this is a group in in Die Hard. Right? This is exactly what they're based on was the Red Army faction. So when you're thinking of Hans Gruber and you're having the debate on whether or not it's a Christmas movie, I personally don't think it is, that that these guys are based on the Red Army faction. There would be no Nakatomi Plaza and no John McClane if not for the Red Army faction.
And so this group, even after the death of Ulrich, even after the death of all the original founders, not only does it continue throughout the nineteen seventies, it continues throughout the nineteen eighties. There's even a third generation of the Red Army faction that goes all the way up to 1998, potentially even '99. They're they're linked to some some robberies. Ten years after the fall of the Soviet Union, this group is still around. Now there are some movies that are made about this, but they're, like, made for TV movies in Germany.
They've never come out in The United States. They've never been released. There's no English language movies about this. And with the exception of Die Hard, which you wouldn't know unless you understood the entire background of the context. So when, you know, when I when people wanna come to me and say, is Die Hard a movie?
Is it a Christmas movie or an anti Christmas movie or, excuse me, a a Christmas movie or just an action movie? I say, no. It's an anti communist movie. That's what it is. You need to actually understand the underpinnings of what the group the Hans Gruber is a member of, is supposed to be, why they're conducting these actions, and the idea that they're tied in real life to The USSR and international communism.
Feel like the world was a little bit better and a little bit easier to understand when things were black and white or, shall we say, blue and red because we knew who the enemy was, and we were more than willing to target them and say who they were. But you
Speaker 1: don't get that today. Today, you get lied about. So this group, all
Speaker 0: the way up through the eighties, all the way up through the nineties, conducting these attacks in Germany, they're
Speaker 1: known about, and certainly in West Germany, they're known about. But in The United States, you don't hear very much about the story of Ulrich Meinhof. When we come back in our very last segment, I wanna go back to her. I wanna go back to the trial and understand in her own words, and I will tell you the things that she said, the reasons behind her actions, what happened to her, the sentencing, the investigation, and her death, very suspicious death, in prison behind bars. Stay tuned.
Come right back. So let's go back to that day, the 05/09/1976. Ulrich Meinhof, she's been arrested. She's been convicted in a two year long trial. She was given eight years.
She was found hung in her cell. Now an autopsy,
Speaker 0: of course, was
Speaker 1: immediately conducted, and it was ruled suicide. In fact, international and independent investigations have both determined this to be suicide rather than, some type of foul play. Interestingly
Speaker 0: enough, in late two thousand two, and I mentioned before her daughter, Bettina, who's gone on to become a journalist of her own talking about anarchist action, anarchist activity, she discovered that, believe it or not, her mother's brain had been saved by the German government. And remember, I told you before about that silver clamp that had been placed in the brain of Ulrich Meinhof back in 1960, back during that brain tumor, and it found that she did have brain injury near her amygdala. And this, believe it or not, through X rays, because she had become so emaciated during her time with the Red Army faction that people couldn't even identify her properly. In all her years on the run, all her years in The Middle East receiving training with the Palestinians, that they used X rays, and they used that silver clamp and the brain surgery to determine that she was, in fact, Ulrich Meinhof.
Speaker 1: So the brain does get found by her daughter. And interestingly enough, though, at the time, many people had claimed, was it you know, could this brain surgery have led her to have issues with her ability to control her own impulses, lack of inhibition control. But
Speaker 0: a psychiatrist at Magdalenburg University later reexamines the brain and became doubtful, believe it or not, that Meinhof was fully criminal responsible because of the damage to her amygdala. So perhaps that may provide some solace
Speaker 1: and finality for the daughters as an explanation of why their mother left them at 10 years old and went off to join an organization like this. But at the same time,
Speaker 0: for members of Antifa, you have to understand that one of the most famous and infamous communist leaders, paramilitary leaders of all time, certainly of the modern era, was literally brain damaged and only joined an organization like this because of that brain damage, the brain tumor, the surgery, and the damage to her own amygdala.
Speaker 1: And so when you look
Speaker 0: at Antifa's of today, when you look at Antifa's history and go all the way back to when we talked about their start, Ernst Thalmann, the destabilizers of the Weimar Republic, the terrorist acts they they conducted throughout. And by the way, that that doesn't include just the assassination of McKinley here in The United States, but also assassinations that took place across Europe, in Russia, the czar.
Speaker 1: We need to understand that these paramilitary groups and these revolutionary groups always lead to more terror, to more anger, and more destruction. Soviet Union was an example of what happens when a regime like that gets into power. Communist Cuba, another example. You're seeing examples of this in South America right now. And here in The United States, we've now, at long last, seen these types of groups raise their ugly heads.
It goes back to the battle of Seattle in 1999 where, believe it or not, Antifa was protesting the allowance of China into the World Trade Organization. Funny how they don't seem
Speaker 0: to talk about that anymore. Because here's the difference. The problem is that for Antifa today, they've become, for lack of a better word, wokeified. They don't just embrace first generation Marxism now. They embraced cultural Marxism.
And that
Speaker 1: is the mar because Marxism works, and when I
Speaker 0: say works, I mean gain a foothold, in countries where there is a strong upper class and a large lower class. So it works in imperial countries such as imperial Russia, imperial China, or post imperial China in the nineteen twenties. But what about The United States? What about a country that's largely diamond shaped, where you have a small upper class, small lower class, and a large middle, a large middle class. Well, the way to divide a country like that in a country like The United States, which is a diverse country, is through the division on ethnic lines, the division on on racial lines, on gender lines, creating new genders, and then going and pushing for more and more revolutionary, fervor in order to, quote, unquote, stand for the interests of these groups.
And this is the same reason that communists across the world and antifa across the world always claim to commit their violence. It's always in the name of the oppressed. It's always in the name of the downtrodden. But, of course, just like every other group, when they become in power themselves, when they attain power themselves, they then become the oppressors. They then become the ones with their boots on the heels of the populace.
And if you do not go along with their version of what they call, to use Markkuza's phrase, repressive tolerance,
Speaker 1: then you are the one who goes to jail. Then you are the one who gets sent away, sent to the gulag like we saw in Russia, like Solzhenitsyn saw in the Soviet Union, like so many saw in communist China. Because revolutionary movements like these only seek to destabilize and only seek to destroy. And because these great communist movements of the past, as Yuri Besmanov would tell us, they knew they
Speaker 0: could never defeat The United States militarily. Red Dawn's scenario doesn't work because you can't get an army into Mexico without The United States noticing. So what do you do? Strategic deterrence. You get The United States to fight itself.
You increase the divisions. You increase and polarize the populace. You create movements that seek to overturn the established order, that used unnatural elements to create a new order based around oppression, based around this higher this this inverted hierarchy of victimization. And in doing so,
Speaker 1: you take out your main opponents from the world stage.
Speaker 0: We used to be a serious country. We used to have a proper country, and it is our job to reestablish The United States' role as that proper country through a national renewal. And that is the point of what we are doing and why we'll never follow the footsteps of Ulrich Meinhof, the Red Army faction, and Antifa. Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay sure.

Video Transcript AI Summary
This edition traces Antifa’s roots to Weimar Germany, where the first eponymous group was Antifaschista Aktion, founded in 1932 by a Soviet agent and a committed Stalinist, Ernst Thalmann. The Red Front (Rot Front) preceded Antifa, with squads, a Red Navy, and a vow: "I vow to never forget that world imperialism is preparing the war against the Soviet Union." Moscow ordered Thalmann to oppose the Social Democrats and work with Hitler to undermine the Weimar Republic, leading to cross-party ties dubbed “beefsteak Nazi.” Antifa’s later two-flag symbol (black and red) reflects anarchism joining communism. Thalmann was imprisoned, then executed in Buchenwald; the International Brigade in Spain was the Ernst Talmon Brigade. In West Germany, Ulrich Meinhof joined the Red Army faction, which carried out bombings and kidnappings in the 1970s, culminating in the German Autumn and her 1976 prison death.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard to a special edition of Human Events, Jack Pesowicz. We are gonna do this show, powered by Turning Point USA, all about the history of Antifa, because it occurred to me that I have written a book on the history of Antifa, and it is called Stories from Inside the Black Block. But it's been a while since we've really had a conversation about them, and it's also been a while since I've really even discussed it because, look, a lot of stuff that goes on, but we needed to take time, and I know that we had time sort of over this Christmas break to be able to drill down on sub subjects that really deserve it. And I think that the history of Antifa is something that a lot of people don't understand. People think that it's this some group that spontaneously came up in 2020 or maybe even 2016, 2017, folks who don't remember.
There are people even who don't remember the fact that Antifa attacked Trump's inauguration. I was there. I was there with with my wife, who was my fiancee at the time, Tanya Tay. I was there with my brother. We were on the road where they stormed the highway across 395 in DC.
All the while, their people were down on the street smashing Starbucks, smashing windows, setting cars on fire. All of this happened. All of this was true. They also went to our inaugural party, the ball called the Deplorable that we held the night before. It was myself, Mike Cernovich, others called it the Deplorable, and I said, well, if most inaugural balls are the day of inauguration, we should do one the night before, so we held it then.
And we had hundreds of Antifa out in the streets attacking people, setting fires, throwing things at our guests, throwing things at my parents, d batteries. Got this on video. But people don't wanna actually talk about the true history of communism, the true history that we've lived through. And so what I wanted to do in this book was also go back to the fact that Antifa didn't even start then. They started years and years before.
And, in fact,
Speaker 1: the history of anarcho socialist terrorism
Speaker 0: throughout the world, particularly Western Europe, Eastern Europe, and The United States, goes back to the eighteen hundreds. We had anarcho socialist uprisings in The United States, the Haymarket riots in Chicago where they killed police officers, the Wall Street bombing, the assassination of president McKinley that led to Teddy Roosevelt becoming our youngest president. He was killed by an anarcho socialist in Buffalo, New York by the name of Leon Czolgosz. So
Speaker 1: this is a rich history, but the history of communism is not taught to you. It's not taught in schools. It's not taught through Hollywood movies. There's no movies about it. There aren't any mass market books about it, but there is Jack Posobic, and here's human events, and we're gonna tell you the true history of Antifa.
Now the seeds of what would become the present version of Antifa worldwide were actually planted all the
Speaker 0: way back in nineteen thirties Germany. Yeah. That's right. The Weimar Republic. The group likes to present itself as the inheritor of a tradition of fighting fascism, but is this true?
Speaker 1: Well, the first eponymous
Speaker 0: Antifa group was Antifaschista Aktshon, and it was founded by a Soviet agent and a committed Stalinist who's named Ernst Talmann in 1932 in Weimar, Germany. And if you don't know the name Ernst Thalmann, then perhaps you haven't been studying the true history of Antifa. Now like many of the critical figures in Germany in the nineteen thirties, he was a product of World War one, defeat of the Kaiser, weakening of the country's spiritual foundation, the deterioration. That was the Weimar Republic. Of course, this is the same deterioration and collapse that led to the rise of Adolf Hitler.
And Hitler's popular appeal in Germany at the time, the Weimar Republic, was principally based in the widespread belief that German communists would use the economic chaos of the depression as a vehicle for taking power and installing a regime like the Bolshevik dictatorship that had been established in The USSR, whereas Hitler at the time was seen by many Germans as more rational and less terrifying of of an as an alternative to communism. This fear was then magnified by a Soviet agent who had become the leader of the Communist Party of Germany. What was his name? Ernst Thalmann, later the founder of Antifa. Ernst Thalmann, working class, born in 1886 in Hamburg, three years and four days older than Hitler, working class upbringing.
His father was a coachman, tended a bar down at the docks in Hamburg. Hamburg is a dock town. It's a city it's water town, a port town. Tallman grew up rubbing shoulders with the sort of rough types that you'd expect in both locales in prewar Germany. At one point, both of his parents turned to petty crime, and they were apprehended, causing them to briefly break up.
So Tallman gets is born from broken home, poor economics, decides to join
Speaker 1: the military, gets drafted, fights in World War one. He then fled his unit in 1917, joining a pro Communist organization that later became the Communist Party of Germany. Talmud
Speaker 0: became one of these leaders because unlike many others associated with the Communist Party, certainly in The USSR and the Bolsheviks, Talmud actually had a working class background. And when you look at Lenin, when you look at a lot of these people, they don't have Trotsky, they don't have a true working class background themselves, and that's why that's why Lenin comes up with this phrase, the the the vanguard of the working class, the vanguard of the proletariat. Talmud doesn't need to be part the vanguard. Talmud himself, he's a working class soldier, came up from nothing, decided to go into the Communist Party. It's really through that military that gets himself up to the next level.
So he becomes the leader of the Central Party, the most important Communist in all of Hamburg. And the Communist Party is on the rise, because as the Communist Party is rising, you've also got the National Socialist Workers' Party on the rise. But both of them viewed their greatest enemy not as one another. They viewed as their enemy the regime. They viewed as their enemy the republic, and the ruling party of the
Speaker 1: time is Social Democrats, the Social Democrat Party.
Speaker 0: So in many cases, you actually saw the National Socialist Workers' Party and the Communist Party working together, that's right, working together while targeting the regime. They held strikes
Speaker 1: together, held demonstrations together. Oh, certainly, they
Speaker 0: were rivals as well, and certainly, there was mass fighting, but people need to understand that the actual history is far more complex than any Antifa member would have you believe today. They would say, oh, we always opposed Hitler, and that's all it was, and we tried to stop him, and and we eventually didn't, and and that's the end. Not true. Not true. You actually did work together.
We've got the proof. We've got the documents. We've got an entire book about it. But I wanna tell you we're gonna we're gonna get into this in the next segment about a in a group that predated Antifa, and it was called the red front. The Rot Front, aka the Red Front.
This was the original Marxist street brigade of Germany, and it was founded as well by Ernst Thalmann all the way back in the nineteen twenties. Now interestingly enough, the Red Front, Roth Front, used military terms for arranging and training its recruits. This is back in the twenties. So they had squads, platoons, comraderies, regiments even. Believe it or not, they even had a navy.
They had a paramilitary navy called the Red Navy. This was how active this was. And so people know, of course, about the Hitler Youth that later was established by the Nazis, but did you know that there was also a Red Youth, Rotorjungstrom? And I'm sorry. I don't speak German very well.
But they they held summer camps set up for communist youth in Germany for the purposes of training and indoctrination and also included courses on military drill, ceremony, and fitness. Now it
Speaker 1: was a full fledged political tool.
Speaker 0: It wasn't the same clandestine operation that Antifa exists as today. This is a huge difference, huge difference, but it kept with that military motif, and they actually had to take a vow. Every member of the Red Front swore the following oath. I vow to never forget that world imperialism is preparing the war against the Soviet Union. So even they knew that the Soviet Union was the the country and organization that they swore allegiance to.
Keep in mind, this is only a few years, not even a decade, since the takeover of the communists in Russia. So communism is very new, and it's it feels like communism is on the upswing. And these groups, they're funded, of course, of course, by by the Soviets. Talmud himself was hand selected by the Stalinists. He flew to Moscow, served in the honor guard at the funeral of Vladimir Lenin, and then is sent back to be Moscow's man in Germany, leads the Communist Party, sets up the Red Front fighting group, sets up all of this directly on the orders of Trotsky.
Why? Because Talman is the man that they view is gonna be their candidate not only to run for president, and he does end up running in the election against Hitler, but he is the man that they view will deliver Germany to them. And here's the other part, because Talmud knew to follow orders. Talmud never questioned his orders, and we'll get into what happened because of that. But you can go and look at all of this.
In 1931, Talmud and Hitler joining forces in an unsuccessful attempt to dissolve the parliament of Prussia. Moscow ordered Talmud to oppose the Social Democrats even in the face of Hitler's rise. Tommen comes in third in 1932 running against Hitler and running and then it's Hindenburg who ends
Speaker 1: up winning. However, just before 1933, when Hitler is able to solidify his rule in becoming chancellor, that's when Antifa is finally formed. So the Red Front gets banned at this point
Speaker 0: because the Social Democrats realize that the communists are insane, and it's very easy to paint them as foreign agents because, obviously, they are, so they get banned. So Talmon realizes he has to come up with something new, a new type of group that has yet to be banned. In July 1932, Talmud inaugurated Antifaschista Action, Antifa, and he knew from the start that the word antifascist was simply a word to get around the fact that he couldn't be called communist because the communist fighting groups had been banned. The communist brigades had already been banned at this point. And what did he really want?
He wanted a way so that his fighting groups could go up against the brown shirts, could go up against the Iron Front, the Fry Corps, so many of the other because this this in Weimar Germany, Weimar Republic, every major political group had a military wing, so the original Antifa, the militant group wing of it, was it was the military wing of the Communist Party of Germany in the Weimar Republic. And so his attempt to bring people into this was not directly targeted, and this is what people need to undersay because Antifa's propaganda misleads about the true origins. In November 1931, the Communist Party newspaper printed an open address to the Nazi Party, calling them the united front of the proletariat who carried out their revolutionary duty. Just before Antifa was founded, the Communist Party held a large meeting in May 1932 with the Nazi party that included a Nazi speaker and hundreds of Nazi participants. Then in November 1932, Nazis and Communists took part.
This is after the founding of Antifa, took part in a transportation strike at the street level. They both viewed themselves as enemies of the system. In fact, there's a term that arose because of this, and that's called beefsteak Nazi. And what was a beefsteak Nazi? The idea was that you're brown on the outside, red on the inside.
Get it? Beefsteak. So former members of the communists who later became members of the brown shirts. So at at the street level, you had people that were switching sides all the time because they both viewed themselves as the vanguard of the proletariat. These are Marxist ideals and socialist ideals.
And at some level, it's just street toughs that are looking for an excuse to fight, looking for an excuse to get rowdy. But that's why you see this tieover. Now, of course, there's the double flag symbol of Antifa. Originally, it was two red flags. Now you have a black flag and a red flag.
Originally, the two red flags were simple because this was communism. Now you see the black flag and the red flag together. That's the addition of anarchism to communism, and that's what Antifa stands for today. But remember, it was Moscow and Stalin who specifically ordered Ernst Thalmann and the original Antifa not to focus on Hitler, not to focus on the rise of the Nazi party, but to work with him to undermine the Weimar Republic. It was those orders that he was directly called upon to follow.
But then, of course, we know what
Speaker 1: happened. We know that Hitler does come to power because they do destabilize the country, because Antifa's purpose was the destabilization of the traditional system or at
Speaker 0: least the established system in this case.
Speaker 1: But who comes to power? Not them. They used to have
Speaker 0: a phrase for this. They would say first Hitler, then us. Well, guess what? The Us never happened. Because when Hitler comes to power, who do you think are the very first people
Speaker 1: that he arrests? It's the communists. It's the people who thought that they were working with their friends.
Speaker 0: And Talman, he gets dimed out by his own communist buddies. We'll explain what happened to him in the next segment.
Speaker 1: So Ernst Thalmann, 03/03/1933, gets arrested, gets imprisoned,
Speaker 0: was informed on by his own neighbor,
Speaker 1: his own buddy, one of his other communist friends. So he does get arrested. And then for eleven years, Ernst Thalmann is held in prison. He eventually gets sent to the concentration camp at Buchenwald.
Speaker 0: Now Talmon's wife, interestingly enough, Rosa, so so his wife spends those eleven years trying
Speaker 1: to get him out. And folks remember that towards the end
Speaker 0: of the nineteen thirties and certainly 1939, just prior to the invasion of Poland and the carve up of Poland by Russia, The Soviet Union, and Germany, there was an agreement signed between the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. That was called the Molotov Ribbentrop Nonaggression Pact. And believe it or not, one of the slogans during that time was long live comrade Talman. The USSR was promoting this, and Talman was seen as sort of a revolutionary prisoner. In fact, even in the Spanish Civil War, the International Brigade of the nine of the Spanish Civil War, the brigade that all the foreigners came into to support the communists, to support the anarchists.
When communists and anarchists and writers and journalists all arrived in Spain to fight for the communists and their failed communist takeover of Spain. Do you know what the name of the brigade was? Because that was fought while he was imprisoned. The name of the International Communist Brigade in Spain was the Ernst Talmon Brigade, founder of Antifa. So you need to understand how how big, how powerful he was at this time.
Speaker 1: This guy goes on to be called a celeb, but here's the problem. Even during and I just I just wanna show the honor of the communists. Right?
Speaker 0: Little bit of sarcasm there.
Speaker 1: They never get him released. They never even go to the Nazis. Even door even under Molotov Ribbentrop, they don't ask for him to come back.
Speaker 0: And why is this? Because here's what happens. When Rosa Talman is giving these letters and these these pledges and imploring the other communists to help get her husband out of jail, who's she giving them to?
Speaker 1: Walter Ulbricht. Now Walter Ulbricht had been
Speaker 0: sort of a a number two, sort of a lieutenant to Talmud prior to his arrest. If you know the history, Walter Ulbricht goes on to be the communist dictator of East Germany throughout the Cold War. And Ulbricht knows that if this massive communist hero gets released, then he'll retake his position at the
Speaker 1: head of a communist party. So what does Ulbrich do? He ignores the requests completely. Ignores all of them. And so
Speaker 0: Talman stays in jail. He stays in jail the entire time. This was his reward for following the orders of Stalin, for following the orders of Moscow, for following the orders of Leon Trotsky, the founder of Antifa, where he actually kind of gets forgotten by Hitler in in the midst of World War two and everything else that's happening. But at one point and throughout these these eleven years, he's always held in solitary confinement the entire time. Never once does Talman renounce communism.
Speaker 1: He gets one visit with his wife later, and
Speaker 0: there's a there's a story there's a rumor that she got pregnant, but she would have been her fifties. So it is what it is, like everything else in that in that
Speaker 1: era. But on the August 18, Hitler remembers him, and he has him shot and killed in Buchenwald. And so that's his reward. Communists could have got him out. They could have implored him.
They could have said, hey. This is a big guy. This is our our leader. If you want us to
Speaker 0: make this deal with you, we need him out. They didn't care.
Speaker 1: They didn't care at all because they saw him as a means to power and as a means to an end. And the same thing, by the
Speaker 0: way, happened to all the original members of Antifa under Ernst Thalmann. They were locked out. They were sent to prisons. Not not always Buchenwald, but just other prisons that Hitler had established for the enemies because this is what always happens to the useful idiots. This is what always happens to the people once they've served their purpose.
Instead of working actually for the people, when you're committed to violence, when you're committed to this type of militancy, this type of destruction,
Speaker 1: that's what you get. That is what you get for following all those orders. You get two in the back of the skull at the at the express order of Adolf Hitler. And so Antifa, which we now see today,
Speaker 0: draws on what they believe through their twisted telling of the narrative that Antifa stood up to Hitler, and it's true that that Antifa did, in a sense, rival the Nazis, but in reality, Antifa had been used by the Nazis as a destabilizing force and then as a rival, which they quickly turned on in the nineteen thirties in order to get rid of them and then establish total power. We see the exact same dynamic today as Antifa is used as a destabilizing force against our own current system, against our system of governance, against our police, against our businesses, as against our religions, as against our society. Because they're used as a revolutionary force, but they're never the ones that actually attain power themselves. Why? Because they're the first ones that you have to get rid of.
You can't have revolutionaries in the same way that Chairman Mao ends up riling up the Red Guards and then calling in the People's Liberation Army to round them up as well, because you can't rile these people up and then actually put them in positions of power. No. You dispose of them. You get rid of them. So while you might think that you're throwing on the black mask, you're throwing on
Speaker 1: the black hood, and you're saving the world from the imperialists and the fascists. In reality, all you're doing is getting played. All you're doing is getting used the exact same way that Ernst Thalmann was played and used his entire adult life by Trotsky, by Stalin, and then finally shot in Buchenwald. And so leave you with that because part two, we're gonna explain what happened to the communists in East Germany.
Speaker 0: Ladies and gentlemen, you have my permission to lay ashore. She was 41 years old, mother of two twin girls, and the West German guards had just found her hanging from the window of her prison cell. The 1976 death of one of the most notorious leftists, agitators, and terrorists in Germany was officially deemed a suicide. Some called the group she ran the Bader Meinhof Gang, though she personally preferred the name Red Army Faction. Ulrich Meinhof looked the part of an anarcho communist gangster.
In the pictures that we have of her that survived today, she has an open, honest, plain face, staring directly and immodestly at the camera. She often smokes a cigarette wearing stylish, if simplistic, clothing. Her hair is usually unapologetically short, and she's typically in men's trousers, flouting what was still a strong social convention in Germany during the sixties and seventies. Her expression is strong, fierce, unapologetic, defiance on the way to the gallows. So who was Ulrich Meinhof?
Well, believe
Speaker 1: it or not, she had
Speaker 0: been a left wing journalist. A left wing journalist who was brought up in
Speaker 1: a family of academics, strong Protestant background, family opposed to the Nazis, deeply opposed to the Nazis, yet she joined a socialist group even in West Germany back in the nineteen fifties, was completely against them. However, the Communist Party in West Germany had been banned, but by 1959, Ulrich Meinhof had been a member. Interestingly enough, and this comes up as a potential question as to her behavior later, in 1960, Ulrich Meinhof received surgery for a brain tumor, and she received a silver clamp in her skull. And so many people believe that her later behavior and her membership in a communist terrorist organization, leaving behind two twin girls, going on to perform acts of violence, acts of murder, robberies, terrorism, that all of this, potentially, this behavior could have been because that brain tumor and that surgery.
Speaker 0: So she works she takes a job with a leftist newspaper, and in 1941 or excuse me, 1961, she ends up marrying the cofounder of that paper, and they have their two twin girls, Regine and Bettina. Today, by the way, Bettina is still around. She is herself a journalist and a researcher on anarchist terrorism and communist violence and is unabashedly critical of her own mother and her own mother's agenda and methods. So the Red Army faction, Ulrich joins probably a few years after it be it first gets started because she was somebody who early on was simply a fellow traveler. She wasn't necessarily a member.
She was a supporter and was writing about them positively
Speaker 1: for her newspaper. However, as more and more actions, revolutionary attacks took place, She got divorced. Her own colleague, Rudy Deutsch, survived an assassination attempt. And now now the leader of the Badermeinhofgang, aka the Red Army faction, ends up getting imprisoned. Listen to this.
He was permitted to conduct an interview with a young and up and coming journalist, Ulrich Meinhof herself. Yet instead of an interview, Andreas Bader was sprung from jail in one of
Speaker 0: the most daring and dramatic episodes in their history. During the jailbreak, a librarian was shot and killed by one member of the Red Army faction. And in the chaos that followed, Ulrich, who had been sent there to interview him, makes a split second decision to join the group and go underground with them. Originally, she just wanted to work with them and and do her writings and and describe them. No.
She makes the decision to leave her life behind, leave her daughters behind, she's already divorced her husband, and to fully join the Red Army faction. Where does she end up? Well, just like they do today, anarchists travel to The Middle East to receive training in guerrilla tactics, terrorism, and she ends up joining and going to the PLO, the Palestinian Liberation Organization. They then, with their Jordanian handlers, clash over food and living quarters and creature comforts, you know, kind of similar to the millennial teenagers that went over to the PKK. Now she becomes estranged from her children,
Speaker 1: those daughters, ones that are still around today.
Speaker 0: But in one incident, she returns to Germany and attempts to kidnap her own daughters and have them brought to the Middle East and trained and indoctrinated by terrorists in order for them to come up and join in the revolution with her. However, this attempt was thwarted in Sicily. They were found out, and the girls were returned to her father. In Germany, Meinhof, she was a wanted woman with a reward on her head of no less than 850,000 Deutsche Marks. Now this group, the Red Army faction, we'll talk more about this as we go through,
Speaker 1: assassinations, car bombs, bank robberies, many of which were funded and financed and armed by the KGB themselves, that this was Red Army directed, trained, and funded activity that was going on in West Germany during the Cold War. And we're not
Speaker 0: talking about a long, long time ago here. This was not the nineteen thirties. This was actual communist paramilitary operations that were going on in Western Germany. And why was this being done? Because they were looking to destabilize West Germany and possibly to build up or form public opinion for communists there as well, this in the midst of the Cold War.
So what happens to Ulrich Meinhof? What happens to the Red Army faction? What attacks did they play? We're gonna talk about that, and we're also gonna talk about the way that they directly targeted US forces and American troops stationed in West Germany, stationed in Stuttgart that had been there since the end of World War two. And you have to look at it from a psychological angle as well.
What drives? Was it really the brain tumor, or was it a desire for access, action, and revolution that drove this young woman to be involved in a domestic terrorist communist plot. So people need to understand that the Red Army was no joke. This wasn't this was not the antifa of today that runs around and attacks businesses for pleasure and and gets off on threatening people in their homes. This was a serious terrorist organization.
On the May 11 1972, the Red Army faction placed three pipe bombs at the United States Army headquarters in Frankfurt. This bombing resulted in the death of a US officer and the injury of 13 people. There was another one in Hamburg. Members of the Red Army faction, six bombs at a at a publishing house. Only three of the five bombs exploded, but thirty six people were injured.
Then again, May 1972, just two weeks after, a car bomb that killed three soldiers and injured five more right at the intelligence headquarters at Campbell Barracks in Heidelberg. In '74, the group murdered Gunther von Drechtmann, the president of Germany's Superior Court of Justice. So, again and again, this organization committed horrific murders, horrific killings. 1975, the Red Army faction seized the West German embassy in Stockholm, Sweden. They took hostages.
They sell set the building to explode. They demanded the release of their own imprisoned members. Remember, this is before Ulrich Meinhof is still in prison at this point. The government, of course, refused to reque refused the request. The Red Army faction murders two of the hostages.
Then one of the bombs goes off inadvertently. Several other members finally, finally surrender. In 1975, it was actually reported because people didn't know what was going on. It was reported the Red Army faction tried to steal mustard gas from a joint facility in West Germany. However, it turns out that it wasn't them.
They merely misplaced. But then in 1977, the German Autumn took place. And this is after this is after Ulrich has died one year later, possibly even in retaliation for her death in prison, which, of course, had been ruled a suicide, but many questions
Speaker 1: still remained. The head of Dredsden Bank was shot and killed in front of his house in Germany, Zabotch kidnapping, but his own family was involved in terms of this. You
Speaker 0: had government informants. You had hostages, prisoners. Again and again in German autumn, these events keep taking place. An industrialist was was kidnapped. The president of the German Employers Association, the the Federation of German Industries, then, of course, the hijacking.
Because keep in mind
Speaker 1: so people have to go back in terms
Speaker 0: of this that the PLO also frequently targeted Germany, and we talked before about how the PLO had provided some of the early training to the Red Army faction. Of course, the PLO conducted, what, the Munich massacre in 1972 at the Summer Olympics where? In Munich, West Germany. What was the Munich massacre? Eight members of Black September infiltrated the Olympic Village and murdered two Israeli Olympic team members and took the other nine hostage.
Did they receive support on the ground from the Red Army faction? What do you think? So you have to understand that these were communist groups working with the Palestinians inside Germany, provided that fertile ground for all of this to take place. And, in fact, at one point in the Munich massacre, prior to the Munich massacre, this was when, some of the people that were asked to be released included the founders of the Red Army faction, Andreas Bader and Ulrich Meinhof. So they're involved in the Munich massacre right there.
Then you have the hijacking of Lufthansa flight one eight one. Again, the popular front for the liberation of Palestine. This was conducted in that same German 1977. Conducted in October. 86 passengers.
Finally, the West German counterterrorism group, backed by the Somalis, stormed the aircraft where? Mogadishu. Somalia.
Speaker 1: During the Cold War, the Red Army faction continued attacks, continued terrorism all the
Speaker 0: way up through by the way, this inspires the this is a group in in Die Hard. Right? This is exactly what they're based on was the Red Army faction. So when you're thinking of Hans Gruber and you're having the debate on whether or not it's a Christmas movie, I personally don't think it is, that that these guys are based on the Red Army faction. There would be no Nakatomi Plaza and no John McClane if not for the Red Army faction.
And so this group, even after the death of Ulrich, even after the death of all the original founders, not only does it continue throughout the nineteen seventies, it continues throughout the nineteen eighties. There's even a third generation of the Red Army faction that goes all the way up to 1998, potentially even '99. They're they're linked to some some robberies. Ten years after the fall of the Soviet Union, this group is still around. Now there are some movies that are made about this, but they're, like, made for TV movies in Germany.
They've never come out in The United States. They've never been released. There's no English language movies about this. And with the exception of Die Hard, which you wouldn't know unless you understood the entire background of the context. So when, you know, when I when people wanna come to me and say, is Die Hard a movie?
Is it a Christmas movie or an anti Christmas movie or, excuse me, a a Christmas movie or just an action movie? I say, no. It's an anti communist movie. That's what it is. You need to actually understand the underpinnings of what the group the Hans Gruber is a member of, is supposed to be, why they're conducting these actions, and the idea that they're tied in real life to The USSR and international communism.
Feel like the world was a little bit better and a little bit easier to understand when things were black and white or, shall we say, blue and red because we knew who the enemy was, and we were more than willing to target them and say who they were. But you
Speaker 1: don't get that today. Today, you get lied about. So this group, all
Speaker 0: the way up through the eighties, all the way up through the nineties, conducting these attacks in Germany, they're
Speaker 1: known about, and certainly in West Germany, they're known about. But in The United States, you don't hear very much about the story of Ulrich Meinhof. When we come back in our very last segment, I wanna go back to her. I wanna go back to the trial and understand in her own words, and I will tell you the things that she said, the reasons behind her actions, what happened to her, the sentencing, the investigation, and her death, very suspicious death, in prison behind bars. Stay tuned.
Come right back. So let's go back to that day, the 05/09/1976. Ulrich Meinhof, she's been arrested. She's been convicted in a two year long trial. She was given eight years.
She was found hung in her cell. Now an autopsy,
Speaker 0: of course, was
Speaker 1: immediately conducted, and it was ruled suicide. In fact, international and independent investigations have both determined this to be suicide rather than, some type of foul play. Interestingly
Speaker 0: enough, in late two thousand two, and I mentioned before her daughter, Bettina, who's gone on to become a journalist of her own talking about anarchist action, anarchist activity, she discovered that, believe it or not, her mother's brain had been saved by the German government. And remember, I told you before about that silver clamp that had been placed in the brain of Ulrich Meinhof back in 1960, back during that brain tumor, and it found that she did have brain injury near her amygdala. And this, believe it or not, through X rays, because she had become so emaciated during her time with the Red Army faction that people couldn't even identify her properly. In all her years on the run, all her years in The Middle East receiving training with the Palestinians, that they used X rays, and they used that silver clamp and the brain surgery to determine that she was, in fact, Ulrich Meinhof.
Speaker 1: So the brain does get found by her daughter. And interestingly enough, though, at the time, many people had claimed, was it you know, could this brain surgery have led her to have issues with her ability to control her own impulses, lack of inhibition control. But
Speaker 0: a psychiatrist at Magdalenburg University later reexamines the brain and became doubtful, believe it or not, that Meinhof was fully criminal responsible because of the damage to her amygdala. So perhaps that may provide some solace
Speaker 1: and finality for the daughters as an explanation of why their mother left them at 10 years old and went off to join an organization like this. But at the same time,
Speaker 0: for members of Antifa, you have to understand that one of the most famous and infamous communist leaders, paramilitary leaders of all time, certainly of the modern era, was literally brain damaged and only joined an organization like this because of that brain damage, the brain tumor, the surgery, and the damage to her own amygdala.
Speaker 1: And so when you look
Speaker 0: at Antifa's of today, when you look at Antifa's history and go all the way back to when we talked about their start, Ernst Thalmann, the destabilizers of the Weimar Republic, the terrorist acts they they conducted throughout. And by the way, that that doesn't include just the assassination of McKinley here in The United States, but also assassinations that took place across Europe, in Russia, the czar.
Speaker 1: We need to understand that these paramilitary groups and these revolutionary groups always lead to more terror, to more anger, and more destruction. Soviet Union was an example of what happens when a regime like that gets into power. Communist Cuba, another example. You're seeing examples of this in South America right now. And here in The United States, we've now, at long last, seen these types of groups raise their ugly heads.
It goes back to the battle of Seattle in 1999 where, believe it or not, Antifa was protesting the allowance of China into the World Trade Organization. Funny how they don't seem
Speaker 0: to talk about that anymore. Because here's the difference. The problem is that for Antifa today, they've become, for lack of a better word, wokeified. They don't just embrace first generation Marxism now. They embraced cultural Marxism.
And that
Speaker 1: is the mar because Marxism works, and when I
Speaker 0: say works, I mean gain a foothold, in countries where there is a strong upper class and a large lower class. So it works in imperial countries such as imperial Russia, imperial China, or post imperial China in the nineteen twenties. But what about The United States? What about a country that's largely diamond shaped, where you have a small upper class, small lower class, and a large middle, a large middle class. Well, the way to divide a country like that in a country like The United States, which is a diverse country, is through the division on ethnic lines, the division on on racial lines, on gender lines, creating new genders, and then going and pushing for more and more revolutionary, fervor in order to, quote, unquote, stand for the interests of these groups.
And this is the same reason that communists across the world and antifa across the world always claim to commit their violence. It's always in the name of the oppressed. It's always in the name of the downtrodden. But, of course, just like every other group, when they become in power themselves, when they attain power themselves, they then become the oppressors. They then become the ones with their boots on the heels of the populace.
And if you do not go along with their version of what they call, to use Markkuza's phrase, repressive tolerance,
Speaker 1: then you are the one who goes to jail. Then you are the one who gets sent away, sent to the gulag like we saw in Russia, like Solzhenitsyn saw in the Soviet Union, like so many saw in communist China. Because revolutionary movements like these only seek to destabilize and only seek to destroy. And because these great communist movements of the past, as Yuri Besmanov would tell us, they knew they
Speaker 0: could never defeat The United States militarily. Red Dawn's scenario doesn't work because you can't get an army into Mexico without The United States noticing. So what do you do? Strategic deterrence. You get The United States to fight itself.
You increase the divisions. You increase and polarize the populace. You create movements that seek to overturn the established order, that used unnatural elements to create a new order based around oppression, based around this higher this this inverted hierarchy of victimization. And in doing so,
Speaker 1: you take out your main opponents from the world stage.
Speaker 0: We used to be a serious country. We used to have a proper country, and it is our job to reestablish The United States' role as that proper country through a national renewal. And that is the point of what we are doing and why we'll never follow the footsteps of Ulrich Meinhof, the Red Army faction, and Antifa. Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay sure.

The summer brings to mind President Alexander Lukashenko harvesting potatoes on his farm. He genuinely cares for his citizens, earning him the nickname "Batka" or "Father." His connection to ordinary people and hard work is why globalists have a disdain for him.

The summer season often reminds me of Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko harvesting potatoes at his own farm. The man is a rare type of leader who truly cares of his citizens, and for this reason alone, Lukashenko is called "Batka" (Father) by Belarusians. He is a man of the ordinary people who understands the importance of hard work. And that's why globalists hate him.

Video Transcript AI Summary
The speaker asked the vice president for a meeting with Mr. Abrego Garcia, but was told to visit Sikhat instead, which the speaker declined. The vice president couldn't promise a meeting the following week. The speaker then requested a phone or video call with Mr. Abrego Garcia to report back to his family, but this was also denied, though the vice president suggested the American embassy might have more success.
The speaker inquired about Mr. Abrego Garcia communicating with his wife, as requested by the family, but the vice president was unsure if that could be arranged. The speaker concludes that there is an unjust situation and accuses the Trump administration of lying about Abrego Garcia. The speaker claims that American courts have reviewed the facts and that the Trump administration's lawyer admitted in court that Mr. Abrego Garcia had been taken in.

Speaker 0: So I asked the vice president if I could meet with mister Abrego Garcia. And he said, well, you need to make earlier provisions to go visit Sikhat. I said, I'm not interested at this moment in taking a tour of Sikhat. I just wanna meet with mister Abrego Garcia. He said he was not able to make that happen.
I asked he said he need need a little more time. I asked him if I came back next week whether I'd able to mister Abrego Garcia. He said he he couldn't promise that either. So, I asked him if I could get on the phone, either video phone or just a phone and talk to mister Abrego Garcia. So I could just ask him how he's doing so I could report back to his family.
He said he could not arrange that. He said maybe if the American embassy were to ask, maybe that could happen. So I will certainly ask the American embassy to ask the government of El Salvador to connect us by phone. I asked him how about his family. How can he talk to his wife so that she can hear his voice?
I let him know that the family has requested that. He said he was not sure whether he could make that happen. So, we have an unjust situation here. The Trump administration is lying about Arbrego Garcia. The American courts have looked at the facts.
In fact, the Trump administration lawyer, the government lawyer, admitted to the court that mister Abrego Garcia had been taken in

A Venezuelan-owned company, Smartmatic, bought the U.S. voting machine company Sequoia in 2005, raising concerns about the security of American elections. Smartmatic is based in Boca Raton, Florida, but most of its employees are in Venezuela.

Some in Congress are requesting a Treasury Department review of the sale, similar to the CFIUS review process used in the Dubai Ports deal. The Treasury Department acknowledged awareness of the sale but couldn't confirm if it had been reviewed. Some find the lack of a clear answer unacceptable. A congresswoman is investigating the situation.

Lou Dobbs on Smartmatic voting machines (2006) Venezuelan-owned Smartmatic bought the US-based voting machine company manufacturer, Sequoia, in 2005. RIP Lou https://t.co/GlngiUdlxS
Video Transcript AI Summary
A Venezuelan-owned company, Smartmatic, bought the U.S. voting machine company Sequoia in 2005, raising concerns about the security of American elections. Smartmatic is based in Boca Raton, Florida, but most of its employees are in Venezuela. Critics question why a foreign company, particularly from a country with a suspect election process, controls U.S. voting machines. Some in Congress are requesting a Treasury Department review of the sale, similar to the CFIUS process used for the Dubai Ports deal, but the Treasury Department can't confirm if a review occurred. A congresswoman contacted the Secretary of the Treasury requesting a review of the ownership. The ownership is offshore and murky, and no one seems to know who owns it. Some believe American elections ought to be run by American companies and American citizens, not Venezuelan nationals.

I appreciate the shout-out, @JackPosobiec! Anne Applebaum is significant because she's married to Poland's foreign minister, Radosław Sikorski. My friend Wojciech Pawelczyk in Poland has been discussing this on X, and with Elon Musk's response, it's now a hot topic in Polish media.
@WojPawelczyk - Wojciech Pawelczyk
Thanks for the shout-out, @JackPosobiec! "Why does Anne Applebaum matter? Because she is married to the globalist foreign minister of Poland, Radosław Sikorski. One of my buddies, Wojciech Pawelczyk, over in Poland, was blowing this guy up on X. Elon Musk responds to him, and now the whole thing is going through the Polish media and everyone's talking about it."
Video Transcript AI Summary
I want to bring attention to Anne Applebaum's recent piece in the Atlantic and her connection to Polish Foreign Minister Sikorsky. She's a prominent voice for the globalist faction, and her article attacks figures like Dragesco for using social media effectively. She accuses them of being Russian agents and using bots, despite a lack of evidence of election interference.
Applebaum's article goes after various Americans, including Trump, Tulsi Gabbard, Tucker Carlson, and Kash Patel, labeling them as cultists or worse. The globalists are showing their true colors because they're scared. Our efforts and the political shift happening, particularly after 2024, are terrifying them. They fear the spread of populist nationalism and what we call MAGA world peace.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: But we've also got this new piece from Anne Applebaum in the Atlantic. Why does Anne Applebaum matter? Well, because she, as it turns out, is married to the globalist foreign minister of Poland, Sikorsky. Yes. Of course, she's married to Sikorsky.
And and one of my buddies, Wojciech Pawlicek, over in Poland was blowing this guy up on on x. Elon Musk responds to him, and now the whole thing's going through, you know, Polish media, and everyone's talking about this. And and and this is the best part. He said, he claims they're married. What do you mean he claims they're married?
They're married. They are directly married. So she is one of these chief, the chief cheerleaders and chief mouthpieces for the globalist and the Victoria Nuland wing of the Democrat party at the Atlantic. And and you listen to this post that she's got up in the Atlantic, the new Rasputins. Oh, she's talking about Dragesco, and he's so evil, and he's so terrible the way that he uses TikTok and social media and new media to get elected.
And this is what the globalist do, by the way. They've got one mouthpiece in the Atlantic, and they've got another one who becomes the foreign minister of Poland. And she's saying, oh, we have to get rid of this. We have to get rid of this new media. He's using bots.
He's a Russian agent. He's a stooge. All of this stuff even though, by the way, no one actually was able to find any any interference in the election itself. And you go through the rest of it. You go through the rest.
She's going after the Americans. She's she talks about QAnon. She talks about obscurantism. She goes after not only president Trump, but even lieutenant colonel Tulsi Gabbard now serving as our director of national intelligence and is calling her a cultist, calling Carl Tucker Carlson a cult a cultist, going after Kashia. There's nothing conservative about Kash Patel, Trump's FBI director, who suggested that he intends to target a long list of current and former Trump administrate Trump officials and going on and on and on.
I want I want you just to understand. Why are globalists like Anne Applebaum, Radix Sikorsky, and all of these types go getting so activated this? Why have they gone and shown their true face canceling an election in Romania, stripping a press a popular winning presidential candidate from the ability to run. I'll tell you something, folks. It's because of you.
It's because of your efforts. It's because of what you did in America in 2024. It's because of the winds that are coming out of Washington right now because they are terrified of you, and they are terrified of the forces of populist nationalism spreading across the world and instituting a little something that we like to call MAGA world peace. Be right back. Jack Sop in events together.

Video Transcript AI Summary
I sent a couple of FBI agents to the White House to interview Flynn, something I probably wouldn't have done in a more organized administration like Bush or Obama, where there was a process to go through the White House counsel for approvals. Instead, we called Flynn and said we were sending a couple of agents over and hoped he would talk to them. Nobody else was present during the interview, which took place in a conference room at the White House situation room. He lied to the agents during the interview, which is what he pled guilty to. We didn't tell him what the agents were coming over for, only that they wanted to ask him some questions and if he had a few minutes to sit down and talk to them. He said, sure.

Speaker 0: It's hard to imagine two FBI agents ending up in the sit room. How did that happen?
Speaker 1: I sent them. Something we I probably wouldn't have done or maybe gotten away with in a more organized investigation, a more organized administration, in the George w Bush administration, for example, or the Obama administration. The protocol, two men that all of us have perhaps increased appreciation for over the last two years. And in both of those administrations, there was process. And so if the FBI wanted to send agents into the White House itself to interview a senior official, you would work through the White House counsel and there'd be discussions and approvals and who would be there.
And I thought it's early enough. Let's just send a couple guys over. And so we placed a call to Flynn, said, hey. We're sending a couple of guys over. Hope you'll talk to them.
He said, sure. Nobody else was there. They interviewed him in a conference room at the White House situation room, and he lied to them. And that's what he's now plead guilty to.
Speaker 0: What did he think they were coming over there for?

Video Transcript AI Summary
As a representative of Europe, a continent of great explorers, inventors and industrial revolutions, I want it to be great again. Currently, the continent is in decline and we owe it to our heritage and children to repair it.
Europe's GDP was once larger than the United States', but is now 50% smaller. Industrial production in Germany has fallen, while Poland's has increased. Europe stands at a crossroads and cannot be the weaker partner of the United States.
To rise again, we must abandon the outdated EU development model, as the Franco-German engine has stalled and Brussels cannot replace the real economy. Climate and migration policies have created chaos. If we fail to change course, Europe risks becoming a museum or a colony of Asian powers.

Speaker 0: I stand here in front of you as a representative of Europe, a continent which once shaped the world, and great continent, continent of great explorers and inventors, industrial revolutions, Columbus and Copernicus, Leonardo da Vinci and Nikola Tesla. It was really a great continent, and I want this continent to be great again. Because now this continent is in decline, and we stand on the shoulders of those giants, our herds, and we owe this to them and to our children as JD Vance, vice president said it a couple of hours ago from this place. We owe this to our children to repair the European continent as well. And we have a great past, and we have to fight for a great future, and it is possible.
We have to fight for a great future as well. And now, a couple of numbers, figures, they don't lie. Europe, just twenty five years ago, and Europe's GDP was bigger than than than that one of The United States. Fast forward twenty five years later, it's by 50% smaller than that one of The United States. Industrial production in Germany is 90% of this from the 2015.
By the way, the industrial production of Poland is on the level of 155% of that one from 02/1970. So today, Europe stands at a crossroads. It can rise again or fade into irrelevance. And we have to rise because we cannot be the weaker partner of The United States. The challenges all around us are really great and grave, and we have to cope with them hard and low with The United States.
But to do so, we must abandon the outdated EU development model. The Franco German engine has stalled, and Brussels bureaucracy cannot replace real economy. And climate and migration policy, instead of delivering solutions, have created chaos. If we fail to change course, Europe risk becoming a museum, an open open air museum, you can say, or worse, a colony of Asian powers. That's a real threat.

Speaker 1: I think it was probably a very necessary thing at the time because, the radical liberals were gonna take over our business, and, you wouldn't have had any pictures like that then.
Speaker 0: No. But seriously, I mean, do I mean, were they in a position? I mean the people who got kicked out of Hollywood surely though
Speaker 1: they were Who were kicked out? Well the people Now wait a minute, tell me who was killed there.
Speaker 0: Well the people who left Holland. Let's take a for an example, Carl Forman.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Carl Forman. I mean, was Dalton Trumbull? Carlton formed Dalton Trumbull.
Speaker 0: Look what happened to Larry Parks.
Speaker 1: About, Larry Parks, admitted that he'd been a commie and he went on working.
Speaker 0: Well, he didn't work for some time. He'd had
Speaker 1: a very Well, he hadn't worked a hell of a lot before that, had he?
Speaker 0: No. No. But I mean No. But I mean, these aren't people surely, are they, who you would expect to take over the industry?
Speaker 1: Well, at the time, it seemed rather serious. And, they were getting themselves into a position where they could control who would do the writing.
Speaker 0: But isn't it, isn't it right that people of all shades of opinion should be able to make movies whether they be extreme right wing or extreme left wing
Speaker 1: or Anytime that they're that is their opinion, fine. But, trouble there was that they were spouting by rote, somebody else's way of life. And that's alright for those fellas over there. That's the way they want to live, but we don't have to have it in our country. No.
Well, you could say of course that That was our point of view.
Speaker 0: Yes. Because your point of view was reflecting the capitalist way of life, the American way of life. Well, and
Speaker 1: I don't think that capitalist is such a, an unpopular word. You know? It's, in 200 years, we've taken a wilderness and built a factory that feeds the world, a farm, or that supplies the world, a farm that feeds the world. And we've been doing our best to help everybody out that, that we can, so, I think it's a pretty good way of living.

Rush Limbaugh: The True Story of Thanksgiving "The Pilgrims knew they would face hardships, but [of] paramount importance to them was living freely and worshiping God according to the dictates of their own consciences, their own beliefs." Nov 24, 2020
Video Transcript AI Summary
In the early 17th century, the Church of England persecuted those who challenged its authority. A group of separatists fled to Holland and later decided to journey to the New World for religious freedom. They faced hardships and arrived in a desolate wilderness in New England. Half of them died during the first winter. When spring came, they met Native Americans who helped them. However, the pilgrims still faced challenges and realized that their socialist system wasn't working. They decided to embrace capitalism and private property, which led to prosperity and attracted more settlers. The true story of Thanksgiving is about the pilgrims' gratitude for their survival and the success they achieved through individual incentive and free enterprise.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Now the story of the pilgrims begins in the early part of 17th century. The Church of England under King James the first was persecuting anyone and everybody who did not recognize the church's absolute civil and spiritual authority, actually the state. Now those who challenged The ecclesiastical authority and those who believe strongly in freedom of worship were hunted down. It's in England. In the 1600, they were hunted down.
They were imprisoned. Sometimes executed for what they believed. So a group of separatists, people that didn't want any part of this, fled first to Holland. They liked wooden shoes and cheese. They established a community.
They were there for 11 years. After 11 years, about 40 of these separatists who liked wooden shoes and cheese agreed to make a perilous journey to the New World. They had heard about it. Some new exciting place hadn't been developed. They knew that they were gonna face hardship.
Hardship like you and I don't know. And I'm not preaching to you. I'm just telling you, we don't know the hardship These people endured. We can't. We are way too advanced now.
People who lived in the 1600 would not believe life today. Try to explain flight, jet travel, they wouldn't Understand it. They knew they were facing hardship. But Paramount importance to them was living freely and worshiping God according to the dictates of their own consciences, Their own beliefs. That's what they were denied the freedom to do in England.
So, August 1, 16/20. The Mayflower set sail. There were a total of a 102 passengers, including forty of these separatists, the pilgrims. There were just 40 of them. They were led by a man named William Bradford.
Remember his name. On the journey across the Atlantic, you talk about something ahead of you frightening and scary. The Mayflower was not much bigger than a 50 foot boat, a 102 people on it. On the journey, William Bradford set up an agreement, a contract if you will, that established Just and equal laws for all members, all 40 members of this pilgrim community. Didn't matter what their religious beliefs were.
These were the laws they were all agreeing to live by. Now Where did these laws, these ideas come from? We're talking about the Mayflower Compact is what Bradford wrote. The Mayflower Compact derived from the Bible. The pilgrims were a people completely steeped in the Bible, Old and New Testaments.
They were a devoutly religious people. No matter what else is said about them, even that is denied, they were devoutly religious. They looked to the ancient Israelites for much of their example, and because of the biblical precedent set forth in scripture, They never doubted because of their faith in God that their experiment would work. They never doubted they would get to the New World. They never doubted that once they got there, they would thrive.
The journey was long. It was arduous. It was dangerous. And when they finally landed, when the pilgrims finally landed in New England in November, According to William Bradford's detailed journal, they found a cold, barren, desolate wilderness. Imagine.
New England, as it exists today, has nothing but rocks, forest, undeveloped nature in November and getting colder. There were no friends degree there was no shelter of Any kind other than what, you know, hiding under a tree, there was nothing, folks. It was desolate. There were no hotels. There were no inns.
There were no places to clean up. There were no houses to show I mean, this was real hardship. The sacrifice that they had made for the freedom to worship was just beginning. During that 1st winter, remember they arrive in November, during that 1st winter, half of them, including William Bradford's own wife, died of starvation, of sickness, exposure to the elements. Now we're getting close to what you were taught in Skruill.
When spring finally came, and by the way, Writing that doesn't do it justice. Spring didn't just finally came. It was a survival. It was an act of survival that you and I cannot possibly relate to or understand. American special forces can.
Military people who've been trained can understand what the pilgrims were, but you and I can't. We've never done anything like that 1st winter in the new world. They survived it. Spring finally came. They did meet the Indians, the Native Americans who were there, who did helped them in planting corn and fishing for cod.
They Showed them where the beavers were so the beavers could be skinned for coats, other things. You animal rights people are not gonna like Some of this story, but it it happened. But even at this, even even with this degree of assistance from the Indians and native Americans, there wasn't any prosperity yet. They had the Mayflower Compact. They had these laws they were living by, but there was no prosperity, and I wonder why.
Now this is important to understand here, folks, because this is where modern American history lessons end with the Indians teaching the pilgrims how to eat, how to fish, how to skin beavers, and all that. That's where it ends, and that's the feel good story, but that doesn't even get close to the true story. You know, Thanksgiving is Actually explained in some textbooks as a holiday for which the pilgrims gave thanks to the Indians for saving their lives, it wasn't that. It That happened, but Thanksgiving was a devout expression of gratitude. The pilgrims to God, for their survival, and everything that was a part of it.
Now here's the part that has been omitted. The original contract the pilgrims entered into in Holland, they had sponsors. They didn't have the money to do this trip on their own. They had sponsors. There were merchant sponsors in London and in Holland, And these merchant sponsors demanded that everything that the pilgrims produced in the new world would go into a common store, a single bank, if you will.
And that each member of the pilgrim community was entitled to 1 share. So everybody had an equal Cool share of whatever was in that bank. All of the land they cleared, All of the houses they built belonged to that bank, to the community as well, and they were going to distribute it equally because they were gonna be fair. So all of the land that they cleared and all the houses they built belong to everybody, belong to the community, belong to the bank, belong to the common store. Nobody owned anything.
They just had an equal share in it. It was a commune. The pilgrims established a commune, essentially. Forerunner of the communes we saw in the sixties seventies out in California. They even have their own organic vegetables, by the way.
Yep. The pilgrims, forerunners of organic vegetables. Of course, what else could there be? No such thing as processed anything back then. Now William Bradford, who had become the governor of the covenant, because he was the leader, recognized that this wasn't gonna work.
This was costly and destructive, and it wasn't it just wasn't working. It was collectivism. It was socialist. It wasn't working. That 1st winter had taken a lot of lives.
The manpower was greatly reduced, so William Bradford decided to take bold action, which I will describe when we get back here. So I want to get back to where we left off. William Bradford, the governor of the Pilgrim community saw that none of this was working. The Mayflower Compact was not working. Giving everybody a single Sheriff stock in the common store, in the common bank was not working.
Collectivism. It was it was as costly and destructive to the pilgrims as it is and has been to anybody who has ever tried it. So Bradford decided to scrub it. He just he threw it out and took bold action. He assigned a plot of land to each family.
Every family was given a plot of land. They can work it, manage it, However they wanted to, if they just wanted to sit on it, get fat, dumb, happy, and lazy, they could. If they wanted to develop it, if they wanted to grow corn, whatever on it, they could. If they wanted to build on it, they can do that. If they wanted to turn it into a, quasi business, they could do whatever they wanted to do with it.
He turned loose the power of the capitalist marketplace Long before Karl Marx was even born, long before Karl Marx was a sperm cell in his father's dreams, The pilgrims had discovered and experimented with what could only be described as socialism, and they found that it didn't work. Now Well, it wasn't called that then, but that's exactly what it was. Everybody was given an equal share. You know what happened? Nobody did anything.
There was no there was no incentive. Nothing worked. Nothing happened. What Bradford and his community found was that the most creative and industrious people had no incentive to work any harder than anybody else did, unless they could utilize the power of personal motivation. But while most of the rest of the world's been experimenting with socialism For over a 100 years longer now, trying to refine it, perfect it, reinvent it, the pilgrims decided early on to scrap it permanently.
What Bradford wrote about this experiment should be in every School child's history lesson. If it were, we might prevent so much suffering. We might have prevented this election if the True story of Thanksgiving had been taught for years years years. And I'll tell you what Bradford wrote and how they fixed it when we get back after this So William Bradford, after putting everybody in a common store, the Mayflower Compact, they wanted to be fair. They wanted everybody to have one common share of stock, at everything that happened that the pilgrims produced, and it bombed.
It didn't work. There was no prosperity. There was no creativity because there was no incentive. Here's what Bradford wrote about the failure. For this community, so far as it was, was found to breed much confusion and discontent.
They were not happy, in other words. This community was found to breed much confusion and discontent and retard much employment that would have been to their benefit and comfort. In other words, nobody worked. The way they set it up killed and discouraged work. There was no need.
For young men that were most Able and fit for labor and service sat around and did nothing, should spend their time and strength to work for Other men's wives and children are not being paid for it. They said, why do that? So they didn't. It was thought to be injustice. Why should you work for other people When you can't work for yourself, what's the point?
So you hear what he was saying here, folks? The pilgrims found that People could not be expected to do their best work without some incentive. So what did they try? What did Bradford's pilgrim community try next? They unharnished the power of free enterprise.
They invoked capitalism, The principle of private property all the way back in the 16, 1400. 16th. I mean, it was incredible. Every family was assigned its own plot of land, and they could do with it whatever they wanted to do. Bradford wrote, this had very good success, for it made all hands industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been.
So when profit was introduced, When the opportunity to prosper was introduced, it went gangbusters. That, my friends, is the essence of the true story of Thanksgiving. This is where it really good. If you're laboring under the misconception that I was, that I was taught in school, they they set up trading posts They exchanged goods with the Indians after they had enjoyed this prosperity. It was not the Indians that brought them prosperity, and it done it's not said to insult anybody.
The Indians assisted them on their arrival, undeniably, but what led to prosperity For these original settlers was a discovery that the common store failed, socialism didn't work when they introduced What turns out to be capitalism, they didn't have the name for it, but when they turned loose individual incentive, Keep what you produce. Sell what you don't need. They went crazy. This is not something they were taught by anybody but self Experience, it was not the Indians. None of this is said to put anybody down.
Don't misunderstand. The Indians did a lot of things that helped them, which I'll get to in just a second, but it was their own industriousness. They set up trading posts. They exchanged goods with the Indians. They sold stuff to them, and those profits allowed them to pay off the debts of their sponsors in London and in Holland.
And you know what? The success of that colony After they had abandoned socialism and tried what was essentially capitalism, the word spread throughout the old world of this massive amount of prosperity that was there for the taking in the new world. And guess what happened? The new world was flooded with new arrivals. The success and the prosperity of the Plymouth Settlement attracted more Europeans and began what came to be known as the great Puritan migration.
And all it took was prosperity. And the word spreading across the Atlantic Ocean, of how there there was prosperity and and it was there for the taking. All you had to do was get there and give it a shot. The lesson is the true story of Thanksgiving is that William Bradford and his Pilgrim community were thanking God for the blessings on their community after the 1st miserable winter of a documented failure brought on by their attempt at fairness and equality, which was socialism. It didn't work.
Only when they abandoned it Did it work? And I need to say again, because I don't I don't want people to be misunderstood and get noses out of joint, The Native Americans, the indigenous peoples, the Indians, whatever you wanna call them, they were of considerable assistance, And they were friendly when the pilgrims arrived, but they had little, if anything, to do with the prosperity that occurred because that was the result of Bradford and the Pilgrim leadership deciding to change their structure according to the Mayflower Compact. Now the Indians assisted naturally, I can't deny it. I mean, they taught them how to fish This kind of thing that they didn't know how to do, and that led them to be productive, undeniably so, but it was The Pilgrim community itself, which experienced this massive prosperity, the word of which spread all the way back to the old world Europe across the Atlantic Ocean. Now I mentioned earlier that, the Federalist has a story on all this, And in it, they describe much of what we did in the 2nd book that dealt with this, the children's book, Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims.
And that book goes into great detail about how the Indians did provide assistance and what kind of assistance it was, how valuable it was, and how crucial it was. And in Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims, We focus on a native American by the name of Squanto. Now as I told you, during that 1st winter 16/20, only 44 of the original 102 pilgrims survived. They had an elected governor by the name of John Carver, And it was an Indian by the name of Squanto who came to their rescue. And this is, as I say, explored in great detail in Rush Revere and The Brave Pilgrims.
Now Squanto was no ordinary native. Early Settlers in 16/10 captured him and sold him into slavery. A group of Catholic friars ended up freeing him, brought him to England where he learned to speak English in 16/18. Serving as an interpreter on an English ship, he was brought back to the new world. It was Squanto, who is a famous native American in his own right In the pilgrim story, it was Squanto who taught the pilgrims how to plant, how to fish, how to skin beavers.
It was Squanto who brokered a peace treaty between the pilgrims and other Indian tribes. There was more than 1 tribe of Indians. It was not copacetic. It was not friendly, and it won with nature. It was not anything like the multiculturalists would have you believe.
There were Squabbles, there were power struggles, turf battles. It was human. The Indians, the pilgrims, everybody was scrambling for power, for survival. Survivability was the name of the game, and it was not guaranteed. Now many of the pilgrims literally believe that God had sent Squanto to save them.
And they believe, Pilgrims believed that without Squanto, they never would have survived or thrived. And they they experienced a Tremendous harvest in 16/21, and that's the big gathering that is taught in the history books. The native Indians and the pilgrims joined together for a huge feast, which is the foundational story of the Thanksgiving story that's taught in public schools. But again, that is not the real story of Thanksgiving. That's The textbook brain, it did happen, but it's so much more than that.
And I I love taking the opportunity Every year to explain the truth is but especially now given how this election has apparently, allegedly fallen out. Because even as the federalist side this is so great that the story is spreading. One of the most important legacies of the early settlers is that they experimented with socialism in the 16 twenties, and it did not work. Private property rights, personal responsibility saved the Plymouth Colony from extinction and laid the economic foundation for the free and prosperous nation that we all enjoy today, and that is exactly right. And that is the true story of Thanksgiving, and that has been what we have shared with you every Thanksgiving for the past 31 years.

Did you know? Ted Kaczynski - also known as the Unabomber - was a test subject for the CIA's MK-ULTRA mind-control experiments when he attended Harvard University in the 1950s.
Video Transcript AI Summary
The speaker discusses the negative impact of technology on society, including increased life expectancy but also destabilization, unfulfillment, indignities, psychological suffering, physical suffering in the third world, and damage to the natural world. They believe that further technological development will worsen these issues. The conversation then shifts to Theodore Kaczynski, also known as the Unabomber, who was subjected to mind control experiments as a young prodigy at Harvard. The experiments were part of the CIA's MK Ultra program, which aimed to study mind control using drugs. The speaker expresses concern over the destruction of young minds for intelligence research and wonders what Kaczynski could have achieved if his potential had been channeled into something beneficial for society.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: We're gonna read a quote, and I wasn't planning on reading this, but I happen to have it up. They have greatly increased the life expectancy of those of us who live in advanced countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, it has led to widespread psychological suffering, and in the 3rd world to physical suffering as well it has inflicted severe damage on the natural world the continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human beings to greater indignities and inflict greater damage on the natural world, probably and psychological suffering, and indeed may lead to increased physical suffering, even in advanced countries.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'll start right
Speaker 0: now. Like asinski.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, His methods were madness, but,
Speaker 0: Obviously.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of reasons to that. Yeah.
Speaker 0: He was also one of the earliest when he was 16 years old As a child prodigy in mathematics at Harvard, he was subjected to the earliest iterations of the MK Ultra experiments.
Speaker 1: And What's the MK Ultra experiments with that?
Speaker 0: So the MK Ultra experiments were a series of experiments that took place over 20 years where the CIA worked with psychiatrists and psychologists and pharmacologists to attempt to use mind altering drugs to study the effects of mind control, because during the Civil War or the Cold War, they had a thought of, okay, so we know about information warfare, we know about economic warfare, but what about brain warfare? And so, it was then order. They were actually mind control experiments that were done. And it turns out that Theodore Kaczynski, when he was a student at Harvard, or one of these CIA backed, doctors was doing their research that he was one of their earliest research subjects.
Speaker 1: So, we took some of our best young brains and destroyed them just for the purpose of CIA intelligence research? Yes. Wow. That's disturbing. That's a very disturbing use of tax dollars.
Speaker 0: And at least one of them was and ended up being the Unabomber. So, yeah, that would have been
Speaker 1: Well, well done. Well done CIA.
Speaker 0: That was in 1959. So I mean, imagine what this, you know, this mathematical genius could have potentially done with that knowledge.
Speaker 1: What he could have been capable of?
Speaker 0: Right. What we know for an extent what he was capable of. I guess I just mean to say, imagine had that energy been placed into something that was beneficial for society, imagine him working in the space program, for example. I mean, this was the '50s when he was in the experiment.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
