Sign language interpreter from Mandela service had extensive criminal record

December 13, 2013
 Wilson

Writer

The crazy story of the sign language interpreter from Nelson Mandela’s memorial service just got a little crazier. Not only was he communicating gibberish, he also has a criminal record which included murder charges dating back to 2003. How and why was this man allowed within arms reach of the President and other world leaders? Is our President safe?

“I want to share a story with you and tell you that there is definitely something wrong. This just broke from the Times of Israel. According to a South African news network, Thamsanqa Jantjie… faced a rape charge in 1994, theft in 1995, housebreaking charge in 1997, malicious damage to property in 1998, murder, attempted murder, and kidnapping charges in 2003,” Glenn said on radio this morning. “It is unclear whether he ever served time in prison, but what is clear: ‘Many of the charges brought against him were dropped because he was found to be mentally unfit to stand trial.’ Even more bizarrely, it's not clear whether the murder charge against him in 2003 was ever properly resolved because the court file against him, quote, ‘is mysteriously empty.’”

It is still unclear who allowed Jantjie to be on stage in the first place, but perhaps the more important question is: Why was President Obama allowed to be on stage with this man in the first place?

Okay. Let me tell you something. Something is wrong here,” Glenn said. “And if our Secret Service is not mobilizing to, A, get to the bottom of this but, B, to put another dynamic ring around this President, it is the crime of this century and it will last for 100 years because something is wrong here.”

When you consider the facts of the situation (however sparse they may be), you can’t help but wonder who knew what in this situation and when they knew it.

The South African government has said they are investigating the situation, but the business that hired Jantjie “mysteriously disappeared.” Furthermore, while the files of Jantjie’s past crimes exist many of the documents do not. It is documented, however, that he has been found mentally unfit to stand trial.

“Now here's the other part: He said he was hallucinating while on stage. I believe him… This is exactly the kind of guy you hire to stand next to all of the world leaders at something like this, hoping that he will do something,” Glenn said. “I believe it is not unreasonable to check his bloodstream to find out if anybody jacked him on anything to have him hallucinate. And I'm not saying that our President was the target… He might have been, but it might have just been enough to say somebody caused some kind of problem at this for whatever the reason. But something is really wrong here. Really wrong.”

It may be easy to point fingers at the Secret Service in situations such as this, but Glenn had a theory as to why the President may have gone forth with his speech despite the uncertainty surrounding Jantjie:

Let me give you a plausible way that that happened… Forget about the idea that this guy was supposed to target our President… Now let's explain the Secret Service. On the way over, this whole thing has not been planned. As Dan Bongino said, there's no excuse for this. This should have been planned [in advance]. Everybody knew that he was sick. Everybody knew that he was going to die soon. How do you not have all of these plans in place… That's the way you do things. Everybody does that. They didn't.

So the President is on the way over with, you know, President Bush and all of the dignitaries from the United States… And the Secret Service comes in to you… and your advisors are all around you. Remember, these advisors are the same ones who are either so wildly Marxist and corrupt that they are intentionally tubing our country, or, they are so incompetent that they can't even build a website that can take your money. Okay? So that's who's surrounding this guy. And they're standing there with him. And the Secret Service comes in and says, “Mr. President, I'm sorry, but we just got the plan with the schedule. And I'm sorry, we don't know who's on the stage with you. We don't know who the interpreter is. They have him within arm's-length of you. We can't get any answers on that. We don't know how this is all coming out. It's wildly disorganized.” If I were the president, I would look at them and say, "What are you suggesting?" "Mr. President, unless we can get these things locked up, I suggest that you do not speak."

That's when the two advisors say, "Mr. President, please. The entire world is coming to this. All of the prime ministers, all of the world leaders, you cannot be the only one that says, ‘I'm sorry, but your security isn't good enough.’ It will be a slap in the face to all of South Africa, South African security, and quite frankly, Mr. President, they will take this and make you look like an egomaniac… that you're the only one that said, ‘No, I can't do it,’ while all of the other world leaders are there and they're fine. Mr. President, it will be absolute political suicide for you to do it.”

Secret Service responds: “Mr. President, I'm begging you, something's not right here. Don't do it.” He walks away and the political advisors say, "Mr. President… do you really think they're going to get through? It's not just Secret Service. SAS is here. Everybody is here. Everybody is here. Security is going to be fine, Mr. President.”

“That's how that happened. I would bet my life on it, that's what would happen,” Glenn concluded. “And unfortunately somebody is betting our President's life. I don't like this President, but I want this President to serve in health – in great health – until the day we take his junk and throw it out on the street the last day.”

Oil & Gas firm CEO behind EPIC North Face troll: In a 'woke' world, TRUTH about fossil fuels is 'controversial'

Apparel company The North Face recently stated that it would no longer make jackets for oil and gas companies because it doesn't want to be associated with the fossil fuel industry. In response, Colorado-based oil and gas company Liberty Oilfield Services rented full billboard ads to remind The North Face of the truth: "Globally, 60% of all clothing fibers are made out of oil and gas. For North Face, it is likely 90% or more."

Liberty CEO Chris Wright joined Glenn Beck on the radio program Tuesday to discuss just how much of our economy — beyond outdoor apparel and energy — wouldn't exist in a world without fossil fuels. And he warns that many companies are now deeming this truth to be "controversial."

"I have been for years, trying to get a real, honest dialogue about energy going," Chris told Glenn. "So we took this opportunity to point out that North Face jackets are ... almost completely made out of oil and gas. How can you choose not to associate with the essential material your equipment [is] made out of? So we put a billboard up ... the billboard says, 'That North Face puffer looks good on you. And it was made from fossil fuels.'"

"Most billboard companies did not want to run that billboard. They thought it was controversial," he added. "And Facebook put a hold on our brief video just saying the jacket looks good, this is what it's made out of. In today's world, that is controversial."

'I had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person': Yale School of Medicine guest speaker goes on race-hating rant

During a lecture at the Yale School of Medicine's Child Study Center, a New York City-based psychiatrist told students and faculty that she fantasizes about "unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way," among several other shockingly race-hating statements.

In April, Dr. Aruna Khilanani — a New York-based forensic psychiatrist and psychoanalyst — delivered the talk called "The Psychopathic Problem of the White Mind" virtually as part of the Yale School of Medicine's "Child Study Center Grand Rounds," a lecture program for "trainees in child psychiatry, psychology, and social work, faculty, clinicians, and scientists."

On the radio program Monday, Glenn Beck shared several quotes from an audio recording of the lecture provided by Bari Weiss, a former opinion writer and editor for the New York Times.

Here are a few of Khilanani's statements from the audio:

  • "This is the cost of talking to white people at all. The cost of your own life, as they suck you dry. There are no good apples out there. White people make my blood boil."
  • "I had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way, burying their body, and wiping my bloody hands as I walked away relatively guiltless with a bounce in my step. Like I did the world a f***ing favor."
  • "White people are out of their minds. And they have been for a long time."
  • "White people feel that we are bullying them when we bring up race. They feel that we should be thanking them for all that they have done for us. They are confused, and so are we. We keep forgetting that directly talking about race is a waste of our breath."
  • "We are asking a demented, violent predator who thinks that they are a saint or a superhero, to accept responsibility. It ain't gonna happen. They have five holes in their brain. It's like banging your head against a brick wall. It's just like sort of not a good idea."

"We must take a stand. We must speak out, because this is evil," Glenn said in response to Khilanani's shocking lecture. "I don't care who you voted for, you know this is evil."

INFLATION collusion? What's REALLY fueling the rising food & housing prices?

The prices of our houses and food are already rising fast, but they will skyrocket to record highs if we don't fix the problem soon. So what's causing the inflation?

On the radio program this week, Glenn Beck said he doesn't believe it's the fault of our loggers, farmers, or truckers — many of them are really struggling. But the big corporations that control these industries are making record profits, all while the Biden administration is making some very odd decisions that could make the crises even worse.

Gov. Abbott issues disaster declaration, vows to defend Texas border: ​'They came in to the WRONG state'

The crisis at the border continues to worsen, with the U.S. Border Patrol recently releasing some shocking statistics that illuminate just how bad the situation has become. But Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) is doing everything he can to prevent any additional unlawful crossings into the Lone Star State.

Abbott joined Glenn Beck on the radio program Wednesday to describe recent action he has taken to ensure that those who do cross into Texas illegally know they came to the "wrong state."

After noting that both President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris "have completely abandoned post as it concerns the Texas border," Abbott explained how "Texas is stepping up" to combat the flood of dangerous gangs and cartels, human traffickers and drugs he says are pouring into border communities.

"Beginning in March, I deployed a thousand Texas Department of Public Safety officers to the border. I deployed the National Guard to the border. And they made well over a thousand arrests of some of these criminals we talked about. They've apprehended more than 33,000 illegal immigrants coming across the border." Abbott said. "But because of the way the Biden administration has abandoned the border, we are now elevating our game. What I did yesterday, in response to more than a dozen counties along the border ... I granted their request for a disaster declaration," he added.

Abbott went on to describe how his disaster declaration gives Texas the authority to toughen penalties for lawbreakers, including criminal trespassing, smuggling, and human trafficking.

"We're going to begin arresting everybody coming across the border and charging them with criminal trespass and putting them in jail. They are coming in here, thinking they'll get the Biden free-ride, and go wherever they want to go. Not in the state of Texas. We'll start arresting them right and left, and putting them behind bars, and saying they came in to the wrong state."

Asked by Glenn if he is prepared for the inevitable "media onslaught", Abbott simply answered, "We're prepared to see a reduction in the number of people coming across the border — because Texas is enforcing the law, period."
