Ice Cube And Bank Redlining — Tucker Carlson posted an excellent interview with Ice Cube on July 26 in which Cube said that among the issues facing the Black community was that it couldn’t get small business loans.
“There’s a big problem in this country with the financial banking system and Black people, and our access to capital,” said Cube (16:50).
He cited a guy who owned a lot in South Central Los Angeles and couldn’t get a loan to put up a store and implied redlining.
Maybe it is racism. Probably it is not. Banks don’t loan their own money. The money belongs to depositors and it is beyond irresponsible to unwisely risk it.
Not saying it doesn’t happen but it certainly is beyond irresponsible.
Here’s a suggestion and it’s a serious one. Cube obviously has a lot of disposable income. He, wisely, turned down a $9 million movie deal rather than tempt fate with Pfizer.
So, Cube, you make the loans. Scout out people in your community who have integrity and talent and dreams of doing business there, and underwrite them.
And these would be loans, not gifts or grants. You would make them sign a promissory note and put up collateral. You would charge interest.
Unlike a bank the money is yours so you don’t have to be a complete SOB if payment is slow. You don’t have to take someone’s home.
On the other hand, you can certainly do some shaming if the debtor isn’t trying or squandering what you loaned him.
If the problem is racism, that ironically is a good thing. That means there is a gold mine there.
Racism is irrational. If a hard-working skilled fellow with integrity is being rejected as an investment only because of his skin pigmentation, one will more than make his money back by giving him a loan.
And if a whole lot of hard-working skilled people with integrity aren’t getting serviced, the one who invests in them will make a whole lot of money back.
Tucker Interview With Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund — Tucker Carlson X-posted a new interview with former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund regarding the Jan. 6 riot.
His first interview with the Chief was scheduled to air on Fox News, April 24, the day he was fired from the network.
He couldn’t air it because Fox owns the video.
So he and Sund did a new one.
It will change minds about what happened and who should get the blame.
Hint: It’s not President Trump.
The video might also awaken minds as to how corrupt and politicized our system of justice has become.
At the very end, Sund notes that all charges were dropped from the attack on the White House in the summer of 2020 despite numerous injuries to Secret Service personnel and other law enforcement, and much property damage.
Here’s the interview:

Andrew Tate Another View — Tucker Carlson interviewed for two hours social influencer Andrew Tate, July 11, regarding the human trafficking charges he’s facing in Romania, along with his views on life in general.
Tate looked confident, intelligent and said things that needed saying.
Tate says the charges involve neither sex or trafficking but that he charmed some women into doing Tik Tok videos and giving him the money, which he also denied doing.
Yesterday, July 16, conservative journalist Liz Wheeler posted on Twitter a six-minute video that contradicted what Tate told Tucker.
The video has numerous snippets of Tate shamelessly telling interviewers that he uses sex to get females to fall in love with him, convinces them to make online sex shows and then takes most of the money.
“I get called a pimp a lot,” Tate says in one clip. “I see it as Positively Inspirational Motivating Person.”
He says he learned his techniques from a book written by a guy who was a pimp in the 1990s.
What Tate is saying here is poison to young men, poison to young women and poison to society in general. It has to be called out and condemned, even if a lot of what Tate told Tucker was not just right, but necessary.
Here is the video Ms. Wheeler posted:
MUST WATCH video exposes Andrew Tate’s lies to @TuckerCarlson.
Tucker Interviews Andrew Tate — Tucker Carlson published his 9th twittercast, July 11, which was a two-and-a-half hour interview with Andrew Tate, the kickboxer turned social influencer now facing “human trafficking” charges in Romania.
Tate told Tucker that the charges involve neither sex or trafficking but that he charmed some women into doing Tik Tok videos and giving him the money. He said even that is untrue.
He said the charges are fabricated by globalists because they see his advice to young men to be strong as a threat to their plan to turn the world’s population into beaten slaves.
Tate was upbeat and confident throughout the conversation and did not duck any questions.
Tate said a half-dozen or so times he isn’t suicidal. This is no longer a joke. Lara Logan felt obliged to say this while discussing real human trafficking and in a tweet to Jim Caviezel after watching Sound of Freedom. We even made a point of saying it on one story.
Ugly Question In Trump Arrest Leads To Ugly Answer — Donald Trump, the 45th President of the United States, was arrested, yesterday, June 13, because he allegedly took classified documents from his presidency and wouldn’t give them back.
You know, that nation where the Biden Administration is sending billions for a war it strangely seems to want.
Leave aside that convenient coincidence and let’s consider other obvious but ugly questions the Wormtongue media that pretends to be watchdogs are avoiding.
Why did Trump have the documents? Ego? Sloppiness? Those answers have been implied but if true why the arrest? Why not just take the documents and forget things? Obviously, the arrest is not what people who seek national unity would do as Trump is extremely popular with tens of millions.
Or is it that The Donald is a villain straight from a comic book seeking to use this information to destroy America? Can’t buy that as America was stronger and a whole lot more respected before his replacements took over.
A far more logical answer is that what Trump had contains evidence of massive corruption — like taking bribes from foreign governments — and DC is panicking.
We suspect the corruption extends far beyond the White House.
Tucker Carlson agrees with us.
Check out his twittercast below from yesterday. Note that as of 11:46 a.m., it has 55 million views. Fox News, by the way, has been knocked from its number one cable slot by MSNBC. One wonders if it even matters as Carlson got 50 million more eyeballs than the two of them combined.
Tucker On Twitter — Tucker Carlson has put his first show on Twitter. Subjects include this morning’s, June 6, attack on the Kakhovka hydroelectric dam in Ukraine and UFOs.
Tucker Carlson Heritage Speech; Historic, Ironic, Scary And Hopeful — Tucker Carlson addressed the Heritage Foundation, April 21, hours after his last show with Fox News and three days before the suits fired him despite his being the most-watched cable newsman.
“The most likely outcome is the most ironic outcome,” he said in the short discussion with Heritage President Kevin Roberts that ended his appearance.
He was quoting Elon Musk whom he just interviewed.
The hit-you-in-the gut part of Tucker’s talk come about half-way through when he starts talking about abortion and transgender surgery.
“Policy papers don’t account for it at all,” he said. “If you have people who are saying ‘I have an idea, let’s castrate the next generation; let’s sexually mutilate children’, I’m sorry that’s not a political debate . . . What’s the outcome we are desiring here? An androgynous population? . . . I don’t think that anyone could defend that as a positive outcome.”
He points out though that the weight of the government and a lot of corporate interests are behind that.
“What is that?” he says. “Well, it’s irrational.”
He said he understood the traditional debate regarding abortion i.e. sometimes it might be necessary vs protecting life.
“But if you are telling me abortion is a positive good, what are you saying? Well, you are arguing for child sacrifice. . . When the treasury secretary stands up and says ‘You know what you can do to help economy? Get an abortion’ that’s like an Aztec principle,” he said.
“What’s the point of child sacrifice? Well, there’s no policy goal entwined with that. That’s a theological phenomenon . . . none of this makes sense in conventional political terms. When people, or crowds of people or the largest crowd of people of all, which is the federal government, the largest human organization in human history, decide that the goal is to destroy things . . . which you’re watching is not a political movement, it’s evil.
He explained that humanity has always had an understanding of good and evil.
“Good is characterized by order, calmness, tranquility, peace, lack of conflict, cleanliness . . . and evil is characterized by their opposites, violence, hate, disorder, division, disorganization, and filth,” he said. “If you are all in on the things that produce the latter basket of outcomes, what you’re really advocating for is evil.”
Kevin Roberts with Tucker Carlson, April 22
Tucker’s quote regarding irony concerned how the the internet was causing ignorance.
“The core promise of the internet was as much information as we’ve ever had at your fingertips and the result has been the centralization of information –deliberate . . . but unnoticed by most people — (that) results in more controlled information that we could even have imagined 20 years ago,” he said.
“So a lot of information just is not available because it’s digital and it’s controlled by a small number of companies. Polling suggests that a lot of Americans — and I don’t mean hundreds but hundreds of millions of Americans – have no idea what’s going on. They don’t know the facts about certain things. It’s not because they are dumb or distracted on their iPhone. The whole point of the iPhone was to inform you and the net effect has been people completely ignorant of the . . . non-disputed facts about a lot of different things and you saw this certainly during Covid. That challenges the idea of democracy which rests of the notion of an informed voting public.”
Tucker said to save non-digital media like books because they can’t be revised by Big Brother. He said to prioritize the tangible, especially personal relationships.
“As the world becomes more digitized and people live in this . . . realm that’s disconnected to physical reality, I think the only way to stay sane is to cling more tightly to the things that you can smell. I’ve gotten to the point where if I can’t smell it, I’m not dealing with it and that includes books.”
Tucker encouraged all Americans to pray for their country for 10 minutes a day.
Tucker Carlson Leaves Fox — Tucker Carlson has left Fox News. His last program was April 21. Call it corporate suicide. Maybe Bud Light will advertise.
Biden Ran Ukrainian Mob Says Tucker Guest — You wonder if things can’t get be any worse and then you hear a snippet of an interview of L. Todd Wood that appeared on Tucker Carlson Today.
Wood is the founder of CD Media. He is an Air Force Academy graduate who flew Pave Low helicopters during special operations before leaving the military to become a Wall Street bond trader, then an author.
He recently toured Ukraine, praised the people and damned the government.
“Ukraine is the safe space for the organized crime syndicates of the world,” he said. “These are Bond film-level villains who made a living in a volcano lair . . where they are laundering billions in American aid.”
Note: Congress approved last month giving that nation $40 billion in additonal aid.
Wood said these crime rings ran information operations agains Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.
“This is the Deep State safe zone,” he said.
Regarding our current White House resident, Ukrainian politicians and journalists claim he laundered $4 billion through their central bank into off-shore accounts, while Obama’s vice president.
“Joe Biden was essentially running the organized crime rings in Ukraine,” says Wood.
“They call Biden, ‘the American gangster’,” he said.
