What can government do to restore sanity to drugged-out, filth-encrusted, dangerous city streets? Defund the advocates and refund jails and insane asylums. There is money to do so if we stop supporting activist social programs. Create ample incarceration and institutional capacity and thereby strip every excuse, such as prison overcrowding, from de-incarcerating prosecutors and judges. Two strikes and you’re out. Ditch Housing First, replace with Treatment First and judicial oversight.

TRANSCRIPT

The government's primary responsibility is to the law-abiding people who are trying to go about their daily business try to work try and better themselves.  It is an absolute, should be an absolute entitlement to have safe city streets.  We took that for granted.  I mean you can look at pictures of the New York subways in the 1950s.  You didn't have people being pushed onto the subways. That was nothing anybody had to worry about.  If it takes spending, redirecting the billions that we're spending on these feckless harm reduction programs that you rightly mentioned, Corinne, and redirecting that to building more capacity for involuntary commitment, to building more capacity for incarceration, we've got to do it.  

The Trump Administration is under fire right now.  It has another pilot program where it is incentivizing urban jurisdictions to get rid of their harm reduction program, to get rid of "housing first," and say, 

No. Treatment first.  Law first.

And if you are willing to enforce the law, to use things like homeless courts that say, okay, you've broken the law against street camping, public drug use; in theory, we could send you to jail.  But if you stay in treatment, court-supervised for a year to get better, we will wipe your record clean. That is a perfectly legitimate bargain.  The Trump Administration is trying to nudge cities back in the sanity of holding people accountable and making sure that the streets are passable for senior citizens, for children going to schools.  That is something to be supported, but, of course, the advocates are calling things like . . . .  Louisiana has a homeless Court program, and the rhetoric is just unbelievably hysterical, like, "This is the cruelest thing I've seen in decades."  It's a judge supervising somebody's drug treatment to get that person better.  That's not cruel, it's humane.

JOHANNES KOENRAADT: The daughter of a right-wing German publisher isn't allowed to become a teacher anywhere in Germany, simply because she's the daughter. The courts told her this after she graduated to become a teacher.

This is Alruna, the daughter of Götz Kubitschek, my publisher. He has 7 children. The whole family is treated like enemies of the state in Germany.

Alruna already has 2 children and finished her studies for a teaching degree and passed the first state exam with the best possible… pic.twitter.com/ojXTDBm84e

JARED TAYLOR: Tyler Perry paid for Wells' elaborate funeral. Al Sharpton did the preaching. Colin Kaepernick paid for the independent autopsy.

No group has ever done so much for another group as whites have done for blacks. And all we get in return is resentment, envy, and hatred. https://t.co/vrw6W14GvE

2:42  The Grand Jury that just delivered its report was composed of 12 whites, 5 blacks, 2 Hispanics, 1 Asian, 2 American Indians, and 1 "Other."  The report refutes or explains every claim that Crump and Company have either circulated or failed to deny when others circulated them. 

3:16.  Jackson County Grand Jury Report, September 14-18, 2026.

Conclusions.  Video evidence shows that Wells had used a fake ID to buy alcohol illegally.  He was drinking sometimes heavily, and the party got boisterous his blood alcohol level was 0.27% a level that would be associated with binge drinking to the point of passing out but this figure is not reliable because even in just a few days after death tissues liquefy sells rupture and bacteria that colonize a decomposing body can ferment residual sugars into alcohol.  As for the bruises and scrapes one witness saw Wells fall clumsily off a boat. He was back to socializing afterwards.  

3:59.  Here are claims the Grand Jury refuted:

1)  That Wells was the only black on the island that day.  False.

2)  That Wells's stomach and lungs were removed by the government autopsy and withheld from Dr. Mitchell, the black pathologist.  False. 

3)  that Dr Mitchell had protested the removal of throat tissue for analysis.  False.

4)  that the state had not cooperated with Doctor Mitchell.  False. 

5)  that well has got into an altercation with white friends that day.  False.

6)  that it was suspicious for Wells to leave his phone in the boat.  False.  People often left phones behind while they played in the ocean and Wells left his with more than a dozen other phones on the boat's dashboard several came back that day in different boats from owners.

7)  There were claims that the white friend who brought wells' phone back tampered with it and kept it from the family.  False.  Well his mother got the phone back immediately and has never even shown it to the police the family first proposed a joint forensic examination with the district attorney then backed out, delayed, and then produced a partial transcript of content.  Nothing suggested foul play.  Blacks are furious because they want to see someone swing and they are too deep into their anti-white conspiracy to back out now. 

5:23.  Tyler Perry paid for Wells' elaborate funeral. 

Al Sharpton did the preaching.

Colin Kaepernick paid for the independent autopsy.

Spike Lee, Eric Bennett, MC Light, Whoopi Goldberg, Sonny Hostin, and Violet Davis, all said his death was suspicious and called for a federal investigation.  

Florida Congresswoman Frederica Wilson with the hat met with the family and Mr Crump because "our young black boys are being murdered and nobody seems to care."

Did anything change after the grand jury report? No.  The congresswoman still in a hat is still saying that blacks have to fight for the lives and futures of our children.

Viola Davis said, "Nolan has joined the countless, endless number of our people who are gone . . .  suspiciously . . . cruelly . . . and then forgotten.  I am so done.  

Wells's mother tearfully said, "it was a reminder that our son's life doesn't matter."  A post about this got such comments as "who actually thought the authorities in Mississippi we're going to convict those snow roaches of anything?"  Snow roaches, of course.  That means white people.

Mr. Crump claimed that common sense tells you the Grand Jury's report is unbelievable and leaves us with more questions than answers.

The DA who handled the case, Angela McElrath, outright accuses the Crump team of lying.

The Crump team knew better but allowed the public to believe among other false narratives that are medical examiner withheld Nolan's lungs and stomach when his body was released.  That things had been deleted off of Nolan's phone before it was given back to his family.  That I refused to cooperate with the examination of Nolan's cell phone.  That I refused to provide Nolan's autopsy results to the family.  All lies, and they knew it.

She's calling for legislation to make that kind of behavior a crime.  So far, not one black celebrity has said, "Well maybe we got it wrong."  I bet not one ever will.  They refused to admit he got drunk and drowned. Mom has been particularly vicious.

"Parents of Nolan Wells' friends, and local officials, told to expect lawsuit," Margaret Baker, Miami Herald, July 27, 2026.

On the day of her boy's funeral, she sent spoliation letters to dozens of people, her son's friends, their parents, state officials, putting them on notice that she was likely to sue them.  They are ordered to keep all records that could potentially be used in a lawsuit.  Wells' close white friend stayed away from the funeral.  Warren Hudson calls himself Wells's best, but said he'd had so many death threats he feared for his life if he showed up.  He and his family got spoliation letters too.  Someone might think twice about having black friends.  

Here are 3 of the 4 people arrested for criminal intimidation against the white people involved in the case.  There is no photo of the 4th, but his name is Brandon Ephraim Washington.  And 90% of Americans named Washington are black.  

Blacks are behaving true to form.  Remember the reaction to the verdict against Karmelo Anthony who stabbed Austin Metcalf to death in Texas?  Blacks posted AI images of themselves [pissing] on Metcalf's grave.  Black Congressman roared about the racist justice system.  Facts don't matter.  Testimony doesn't matter. And this has been going on for a long time.  

There's an excellent book about what blacks think of us, called I Heard it Through the Grapevine: Rumor in African American Culture, Patricia A. Turner, 1994.  The black author explains that the folk believed just about any hateful theory about whites.  In the 1980s, many blacks were convinced that Church's Fried Chicken was laced with a chemical that sterilized black men.  After 2005 Hurricane Katrina, Spike Lee, and Louis Farrakhan claimed the US government blew up the New Orleans levees to flood black neighborhoods.  Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Kanye West, and Harry Belafonte all said Federal relief was slow because the victims were black.  Two thirds of blacks agreed with them.  This gets so boring.  

No human group has ever tried harder to help another group then whites have tried to help blacks.  Have we ever got a lick of gratitude?  Not that I know of.  Nothing but resentment, accusations, envy, and hatred.  We already live in separate nations mentally, morally, and psychologically.  We need separate real Nations. 

GRANT NEWSHAM: in the broader context of this U.S. China relationship where China will tell you they are at war with us. If you listen to Xi Jinping, he's very clear about it that only one of these systems is going to survive.

Grant Newsham @ Center for Security Policy.  

00:11.  Despite aggressive threats from China, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the U.S. will keep doing what it's been doing when it comes to Taiwan.  How significant is that?

00:23.  Well, I think it's a good thing.  I think Secretary Rubio spoke very well.  Before the meetings, of course, there were all sorts of people who were saying that President Trump is going to sell out Taiwan, that he's going to give Xi Jinping what he wants and to back off.  But Secretary Rubio is very clear about it that we hear the Chinese, we've heard them before; they say the same thing.  But our policy hasn't changed, and if there is to be any change to the status quo across the Taiwan Street it has to be done peacefully and voluntarily without coercion.  So that hopefully will put these doubters at rest for at least 30 minutes or so.

1:07.  Colonel president Trump says China has agreed to buy more American soybeans, jet planes, and energy, but given the CCP's record of not really honoring it's pledges even as recently, you remember, as the last Trump Administration, how do you see these deals or proposed deals?

1:23.  Well it's hard to get too excited about them if you've followed these Summits for 30-35 years.  You have these kind of promises, and yes China does buy some of these things, aircraft, at least until they can build their own, and then they won't need Boeing jets and same with soybeans, for example. It's hard to get too excited. They grudgingly buy some, and then they say, "Oh, we did you a favor," but in actual fact they take the soybeans, turn those into value-added products, anything from inkjet printers, the ink at least, cosmetics, etc., and then they sell it back to the US, to the West, and make about four or five times profit.  So these are just relatively minor tactical exchanges as I see it and take place in the broader context of this U.S. China relationship where China will tell you they are at war with us.  If you listen to Xi Jinping, he's very clear about it that only one of these systems is going to survive.  So, yes, it's nice, of course, for farmers, nice for Boeing, but it's really just a temporary measure and doesn't affect the underlying problem in our relationship with what is a fundamentally a hostile nation, and it is entirely because Beijing wants it to be a hostile relationship.

2:42.  So you mentioned war, hostile relationship, anything coming out of this summit that you're kind of looking into to see where this relationship or adversarial relationship is going?

2:55.  I think we shouldn't expect too much from this.

I think there was maybe some hope that the Chinese might talk to the Iranians, tell the Iranians to back down and cooperate with the Americans but that doesn't seem likely to come out.  Another concern was that the Americans might relax their technology controls on exports to China. It's not clear what will come out of that.  Xi Jinping certainly wants more access to the US market, say, for EVs, their EV batteries, etc., partly so they can really put American competitors out of business and get a foothold in the US, and it doesn't look like the Americans have given him what he wants on that.  When it comes to Taiwan, of course, Secretary Rubio has spoken up on that one. Fentanyl, well, that's really the biggest issue, and it appears that it was covered but it doesn't appear that it was really pressed.  And Fentanyl has killed over 800,000 Americans since about 2013 it comes from China.  China could stop it in an afternoon.  But you can see how even Mr. Trump he sort of glides over it; he doesn't make as much out of this as he should or any previous president should have.  So the relationship really hasn't changed.  I think you would say at best that it hasn't gotten worse as a result of this visit.  

4:22.  Colonel, you brought up Iran with the White House saying after the meeting that the US and China have reached some agreements over Iran, but can the US really trust the CCP to help there?  There's plenty of evidence that shows that China was actually helping Iran fight the US and evaded sanctions.

4:38.  Well, I don't know why you would trust China over this.  I think we have the intelligence that China's providing targeting information to the Iranian so they can strike targets in the Gulf, including us and potentially kill Americans.  And they're providing what amounts to rocket fuel for Chinese ballistic missiles. They've got a resupply effort going across the border from Pakistan to keep the Iranians in operation.  So they're not going to do anything that we think they should.  You heard Secretary Rubio explain how it was in China's interest to have the Straits of Hormuz open, to have the war stopped.  Well, we think it is, but China doesn't.  In many respects, they're glad to have America bogged down for now in the Persian Gulf.  It causes political problems for president Trump.  And also it allows them to maintain this hold that they have over Iran which is their main proxy in the Middle East and that they've used for decades to exert their influence to destabilize and really subvert the region.  So that the Chinese don't have much interest in helping us out here even though it was announced that both sides agreed the Straits of Hormuz should be open and that Iran should not have nuclear weapons.  That's really not a promise from the Chinese side that one should take too seriously.

6:03.  To your point, if you look historically at the Chinese Communist Party just uses any opportunity to benefit from any kind of destabilization.  So to your point on the Strait of Hormuz, it's valid.  Finally Colonel, today while President Trump was in China we saw the Congressional Executive Commission on China holding a hearing on illegal organ trafficking in China.  It's how the CCP harvests organs from living religious practitioners for profit.  It's just incredible.  Does the US have a responsibility to raise this type of issue or other human rights issues with the CCP at these types of summits?

6:40.  Well, it should.  We are the United States.  We supposedly care about these things.  And how do you sit across the table from someone who, as you said, literally takes the organs out of live prisoners.  And these are prisoners of conscience but even any sort of prisoner that actually does that has a handsome business going on selling these things, and how do you sit across from them and think that you're actually going to establish some sort of a working relationship with them?  It takes some real delusion to do that and human rights is something that should be raised constantly with the Chinese.  Xi Jinping has actually said in his Document 9 in 2013 that human rights really are an enemy.  It's something that doesn't apply to China, and he hates it when that is raised.  But these are things that you have to talk about it.  As I say, this organ harvesting . . . this just hideous racket that the Chinese Communists have going.  The fentanyl that's killed so many of us.  These are things that need to be talked about.  You can't think that, well, if we just do business with them, they're going to gradually become like a lovable Canada, like at least when Canada was more lovable.  But it just hasn't happened.  You know, we have 30, 40 years of empirical evidence to look at and China is not going to change barring some unforeseen events.  And we really shouldn't be supporting it or tolerating it because we are once again the United States of America, and that's probably worth more than some soybeans and Boeing 737 exports.  

Wilfred McClay, was the Civil War inevitable?
