European Magazine Interviews James Edwards
I granted an interview to a magazine last week that will available in European newsstands when it goes to press in a few days. Below is a transcript of the Q and A. – James
Magazine: Mr. Edwards, these days America is an exciting field of political observation, but first of all, let’s talk about you and your radio program The Political Cesspool. For years you have been highly political, for example, you campaigned for the presidential candidate Pat Buchanan and also hosted him on your show. So, please, introduce yourself and The Political Cesspool – can you sketch for our readers the history of it and the concept behind?
James Edwards: I am an advocate for European Americans.
On a personal level I am a husband. I have a wife. I have three children.
The radio program was founded in 2004 to express ideas and facts suppressed in the main stream (“System”) media and to give an audience to those who are excluded, who because of their views are effectively silenced.
It is important that someone – even in a small way – tells the truth in contradiction of the System narrative. I am known for discussing matters of faith, heritage and racial reality.
Over the course of the past decade, my work on the radio has been the subject of interest in hundreds of newspaper and magazine publications, as well as television and other radio broadcasts around the world.
In 2016, I was listed alongside Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter as one of the “Top 20 Right Wing media fixtures” responsible for Donald Trump. I was later specifically named by Hillary Clinton as one of the “extremists” who would shape our country in a Trump administration.
My first book, Racism Schmacism: How Liberals Use the “R” World to Push the Obama Agenda, was published in 2010.
Magazine: How would you describe the media landscape in the USA? What idea should we have of the situation, especially regarding the process of opinion-forming?
JE: The System media displays an unanimity that Goebbels and Stalin could only have dreamed of.
American mainstream media apes and mimics a handful of media giants – The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN. In this way the same line is repeated in the “American” media from top to bottom. Each journalist is his own censor.
Dissent does not exist. It is not tolerated. Opinions are the same. The same stories are put center stage and repeated over and over again. The same stories are excluded and not reported. All reporting and commentary are the same. The American media speaks with a single voice.
Magazine: One could, for example, witness a concerted Trump-bashing by the establishment and how the mainstream media promoted a cancel culture and even instigated polarisation up to public unrest. Are conservatives in the USA capable or even willing to fight left totalitarianism?
JE: So-called “Conservatives” are psychologically unable to fight “left totalitarianism” (as you call it).
“Conservatives” pose no threat to the dominance of the Left.
R.L. Dabney, a great theologian from the American South, said the following about “conservatism” in the 1800s:
Its history has been that it demurs to each aggression of the progressive party, and aims to save its credit by a respectable amount of growling, but always acquiesces at last in the innovation. What was the resisted novelty of yesterday is today one of the accepted principles of conservatism; it is now conservative only in affecting to resist the next innovation, which will tomorrow be forced upon its timidity and will be succeeded by some third revolution; to be denounced and then adopted in its turn. American conservatism is merely the shadow that follows Radicalism as it moves forward towards perdition. It remains behind it, but never retards it, and always advances near its leader.
Its impotency is not hard, indeed, to explain. It is worthless because it is the conservatism of expediency only, and not of sturdy principle. It intends to risk nothing serious for the sake of the truth, and has no idea of being guilty of the folly of martyrdom. It always when about to enter a protest very blandly informs the wild beast whose path it essays to stop, that its “bark is worse than its bite,” and that it only means to save its manners by enacting its decent role of resistance: The only practical purpose which it now serves in American politics is to give enough exercise to Radicalism to keep it “in wind,” and to prevent its becoming pursy and lazy, from having nothing to whip.
That was true in Dabney’s day and is twice as true now.
Magazine: What is your analysis of the election result and can you give a forecast of what the Biden presidency will bring to the USA?
JE: The surprising thing about the election is the large number of votes – almost 50% – Trump won.
Trump was subjected to Systematic media vilification of the vilest, most unscrupulous and shrill kind for 4 years. Did a single newspaper, radio or television station in America endorse him?
He was outspent by Biden by a factor of 4 to 1.
His supporters were censored and silenced on social media. Even the President himself was eventually censored by Twitter.
The capitalists and the labor unions were against him.
He was opposed by the clergy of most of the churches.
Despite all of this Trump got about 48% of the counted vote and a little higher percentage of the cast vote.
Trump’s showing in the face of these head winds is a very encouraging sign that Whites are increasingly thinking for themselves.
Here’s what I expect from Biden:
Substantial increase in immigration – both legal and illegal. Amnesty and family reunification for illegal aliens. Bemused tolerance of illegal immigration.
Government violation of civil liberties in an effort to suppress dissident speech. FBI harassment of Whites who oppose the System agenda. Crony capitalism.
Corruption as seen in the history of influence peddling by Biden’s son, Hunter Biden.
Higher taxes on small businessmen and professionals. Transfers of wealth from White Americans to other groups, possibly including “reparations” to Blacks whose ancestors were slaves 6 generations ago.
In foreign policy a reversal of Trump’s efforts to withdraw from failed interference in the Middle East.
Revival of the civil war in Syria with American support. Possible intervention in Syria. Confrontation with and provocation of Russia.
All this and more.
Magazine: It seems that America is becoming quite balkanised and increasingly a criminal ghetto (autonomous zones) in the metropolitan areas of blue states. Could secession for Republican states of still White majority be an option? Can the GOP be expected to help in this regard?
JE: America is irreversibly balkanized. The United States is occupied by several competing and hostile nations. A White European nation, an African-American nation, a Jewish nation, an Hispanic nation, an Asian nation, and so on.
We must break up and the sooner the better. The optimum outcome would be a peaceful separation such as that presided over by Gorbachev when the Soviet Union disintegrated with very minor loss of human life.
The GOP is hopeless as a remedy. The GOP will not support secession. Now that Trump is gone expect to see a stampede of Republican leaders to support immigration and other anti-White polices.
Fortunately, demographics will soon cause the GOP to fade away and cease to distract people’s attention.
Magazine: The slogan “Make America Great Again” brings about the question of how to interpret “greatness” with regard to America’s international reputation. That, in turn, depends essentially on the geopolitical ambitions in which the USA is often seen as an imperialist hegemon. Do you think a strategical shift towards an attitude of more non-interventionism would improve America´s international relations?
JE: In foreign relations we need to return to a policy of non-intervention in other nations’ affairs. We need to mind our own business for a change.
Imperialistic interventions need to stop.
And, yes, this would be conducive to better relations and good for the world and good for us.
Magazine: In the recent times, the issue of trade conflicts frequently dominate the news. Did an overstrained zeal of globalisation reveal its damages regarding regio-economical substance and what does that mean for economic nationalism – is this term becoming a synonym for de-globalisation?
JE: The “American” government has facilitated and supported the “de-industrialization” of the country. Biden has been a strong advocate of globalism.
When the Coronavirus hit earlier this year, Americans did not have the ventilators or the masks the government claimed were needed to treat virus victims or to curb its spread because production of medical supplies had been outsourced to China. China decided to keep such things for itself.
No nation can long exist without producing within inside its borders all critical products necessary to its independent existence.
Thank you very much for this comprehensive, superb article. SPOT ON !
That is an interesting quote by the theologian, Mr. Gabney, from around 140 years ago. His words were not heeded. William Pierce gave essentially the same warning 50 years ago for White Americans in language even more straightforward, but his wise words, too, have been disregarded for the most part by modern day conservatives: https://nationalvanguard.org/2010/09/why-conservatives-cant-win/

“Conservatives cannot win because the enemy to which they are opposed is a revolutionary enemy — an enemy with revolutionary goals and guided by a revolutionary way of life.
“The advantage has always lain — and will always lie — on the side of the contender who is prepared to take the offensive, rather than maintaining a defensive position only…”

It is not too late for Whites to radicalize and go on offense against our racial enemies as revolutionists. But we must first name them, as Dr. Dalton did this week, here: https://nationalvanguard.org/2020/12/hey-congress-wheres-my-10000/

“…Call out the Jewish Lobby. Call out the Jewish billionaires who are funding the Democrats (Tom Steyer, David Sussman, Michael Bloomberg, Karla Tinklenberg, David Simon, James Simons) and the Republicans (Richard Uihlein [probable], Steven Schwarzman, Jeff Yass, Geoffrey Palmer, Bernie Marcus, Paul Singer)…”

The author is correct that conservatives come to accept what the Left has brought about and do not usually manage to reverse it in a truly conservative/right-wing direction.
This is a major failing because it means that the Left succeeds bit by bit inexorably.
This is something that most in the GOP and even many conservatives do not understand.
Now red states are turning blue but I don’t see blue states turning red. The two Senate races in Georgia should not even be close but they are close:
Two White Christian Republicans against a left-wing Black man and left-wing Jewish man. This is a bad sign. The South is changing, and not for the better.
I wish to mention another group with a pernicious agenda that has teamed up with the Left/minorities: LGBT. This group’s agenda is highly destructive. Children in nursery school are being told that they can be a boy or girl. High school students are being taught to experiment with homosexuality.
“Drag Queen Story Hour” subjects the very youngest students (3 years old and even younger) to strip shows by adult males posing as females. This has taken the nation’s (and Canada’s) schools and libraries by storm.
These links are offensive. Most people do not know about this but they NEED to know so they can fight back:

” No nation can long exist without producing within inside its own borders all critical products necessary to its independent existence “.
The very definition of an ” axiom ” !
Given the right price and [ videoed ] connections, all critical products can be acquired in some fashion during a crisis.
Yet, the most highly prized ‘ product ‘, that of National Security is handled with the standard of care, perhaps deemed appropriate for a venereally diseased whore.
Ca. six years ago, Tel Aviv’s Haaretz published a letter, played into its hands, making the Jewish rounds in Russia, as a chain-letter: to be handed on. It exhorted its Jewish addressees to pursue all well paying jobs for its own advantage, BUT specifically to pursue jobs at junctures affording lateral and vertical multiplier control.
The identical MO is successfully pursued in America’s Security Establishment. Why is a Brooklyn, NY, Orthodox, admitted eye-candy, required to fill a top position in the NSA ?
No one has enough fingers to count the hundreds of staff of the Security Establishment, or the hundreds of millions expended in attempting to ferret out its own traitorous double agents, who, collectively, have delivered hundreds of their agents working for us, to the knife. Staff, who, irreversibly, have ruined many families of erroneously suspected employees.
That nincompoop Biden will kiss all of that better. Several of his cabinet nominees are rumored to be able to both read and write; while another once spun a globe in the library of her grade school.
What magazine is the original interview in?
Richard, while you didn’t ask me, allow me nevertheless to hazard a guess.
Hamburg’s DER SPIEGEL.
That publication, along with the FRANKFURTER ALLGEMEINE, are sort of Germany’s ” paper of record “. Like America’s paper of record, all three are guilty, having been found out, to have fabricated stories of geopolitical significance for personal gain.
Udo Ulfkotte, the hapless Editor of the Frankfurter Allgemeine, cleared his conscience on his death-bed, for having put his signature under editorials dictated in their entirety by the CIA. He died a slow death as a result of earlier, front-line reporter blow-back from poison-gas rockets supplied by that glad-handing swine Gates to Saddam, against Iran.
[ Bad Adolf, BY COMARISON, had five poison gases amenable to fix on rocket heads, none of whose formulae were known to the West, rendering them incapable of developing an antidote for the field: but he stopped short of deploying them; even at the eleventh hour.
GOOD Churchill, however, ordered a 2,000 bomber raid on the residue of the Reich, by the RAF armed with one ton poison gas-bombs each. Lucky for me: the Imperial General Staff nixed this war-criminal’s orders. Perhaps they had read about his British Cabinet methods when he unleashed poison bombs on some Kurdish tribe north of Baghdad, during the 20s, because they were insufficiently attentive to British orders ].
The chap who interviewed JE may be of sterling journalistic character. We’ll see if his Editor is half as brave when he serves us the pudding, as cooked here. .
A mostly good interview. At risk of being accused of being “unrealistic,” I am always irritated with how quickly people on our side are eager to concede victory to their enemies. It is absolutely unhelpful as a tactic and it betrays the soldiers on one’s right and left. The instruction is: you fight until it is over. Even it the chances of gaining the principal goal become remote, there is much to be gained by a bulldogged, all-or-none fight to the bitter end. The Left (the globalists, the anti-Europeans, etc.) knows this and practices this so well. “Our team” disgustingly pride itself on a repugnant form of good sportsmanship and virtue displaying their “realism.” Winning in politics is not about appearing to be realistic. Winning is about winning when it comes to survival. White Europeans need to be tutored about this out in the woodshed so that they never, ever do this again. Fighting till it is truly over enables our team to ferret out the weasels on our own side. This attitude of relentless determination scares opponents for the future. It emboldens us in our present and future battles. It helps us select for the manly fighters. And do you know what,one just may win. And when you win then you start to win more, and more, and more. You did not represent me in that interview. Please do not say that you are representing Europeans.
The problem with this website is that the micro intellectual historical “one up man ship” of its authors and its comenters although interesting does not serve to combat the fear of and influence of the Jews and their acolyte minorities and press. Popopularism as a political movement is the answer
Proven effective by Trump for the previous four years, demonize your enemy’s on an ethnic basis and use all the tools of the communist manifesto against itself by its inventors and practitioners! All else is just intellectual palaver of the intimidated to save face ,what little of that is left.
T. J. Daley
Dear Mr. Daley, please, do explain where you see in “this website” the “micro intellectual historical ‘one up man ship’.” Please, if your criticism is directed at me or someone else, do not be vague. Frankly, I puzzled by the intended meaning of the description, “micro intellectual historical.” I get that in “mcro intellectual” you intended to take a jab, probably at me. Okay. Fine. I rally do not know what you mean by :historica,” though. I did–indeed–offer a negative reaction to Mr. Edward’s printed interview. I will attempt to explain that better, in a moment. But you need not smear the website, the author or the other commenters if your primary objection was in response was–perhaps–the result of my comment. Now, as for my comment—it was a reaction to what I had read. Maybe I should have waited a day, in which case I probably would not have bothered. I did not like a particular aspect of Mr. Edward’s stance that colored the whole essay for me. Specifically. Mr. Edwards was asked by the Magazine,” What is your analysis of the election result and can you give a forecast of what the Biden presidency will bring to the USA?” Mr. Edward’s response included, “Here’s what I expect from Biden…” where Mr. Edwards takes the bait and displays his willingness to discuss the Trump Presidency in the past test. Shame on him. I consider his posture (or lack thereof) to be yet another example of an anti-anti-Trump or a Republican or a Cuckservative eager to pronounce his own –and others’–cause dead while there are still soldiers fighting. In my eyes, this is another example of European failure of spirit and the pernicious “caving in” that they are so good at. It is another demonstration to me of that Europeans like to pretend to have a crystal ball and always want to at least cravenly gain the applauds of journalists for being a good sport. Well d*** that behavior to H***. The Leftist media loves to manipulate people on the Right with this and they–like a controlling girlfriend–plays with people like Mr. Edwards. President Trump continually does things to disappoint and anger me. I am not a ‘Trump bot’. I have a lot of clarity about the situation and still opt to not assume the wilted posture. Mr. Edwards is correct to point to a few things that signal some favorable shifts that could give us long-term hope. For that aspect of his interview, I am grateful.
I wonder why the “magazine” isn’t identified.
The call to autarky in the article’s closing sentence is arrant nonsense. Maybe we could quibble about what a “nation” is, then.
Spare me that, thank you.
Mr. Rucker, despite my strongly negative reaction to Mr. Edwards’ throwing in the towel on Trump while some of us are still fighting, I did agree with much of the remainder of his his analysis. (Conservatives are absolutely great on analysis, but disappointing–no, absolutely infuriating–when it comes to their general incapacity for action and determination to fight with perseverance. Though his techniques were largely immoral and to be rejected, I would rather spend an afternoon in a bar with Saul Alinsky than I would with feckless conservatives or most fellows on the Right. You know what word I want to use. And, no, I am not talking about street brawling.) Now, as for your last comment, I must reject your assertion that national autarky is “arrant nonsense.” And indeed, let’s “quibble about what ‘nation’ is.” It is not a people and land wrapped in cellophane. To the contrary, a people and nation must have an active border for the exchange of people and goods, but that border must be properly regulated for a negotiated, common benefit. That is in no way easy, but it can be done. As for what a nation is, a nation is predominantly an ethnostate. Theodor Adorno, in his book, ‘The Authoritarian Personality’, defamed what are healthy, peaceful, wholesome, biologically appropriate affiliations with kin and nation. This pernicious and poisonous libel must be identified and countered wherever it appears in our societies and institutions. It has caused incalculably vast amounts of misery, bloodshed and enslavement.
