On Friday, the American Freedom Party, a White supremacist political party, announced in a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.donotlink.com\/hu5k\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">press release<\/a> that its chairman, William Johnson Johnson, via his newly-established American National Super PAC, began the campaign, urging Iowans to either caucus for the billionaire real estate developer or urge their Republican friends to do so. Johnson speaks in the robocall, calling himself \u201ca farmer and a white nationalist\u201d, and is also joined by <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/jared-taylor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jared Taylor<\/a>, the editor of American Renaissance. \u201cWe don\u2019t need Muslims,\u201d he says in the call. \u201cWe need smart, well-educated white people who will assimilate to our culture. Vote Trump.\u201d In June, Taylor acted as spokesperson for the Council of Conservative Citizens after it was revealed that they were an inspiration to Dylann Roof, who allegedly shot and killed nine African-American churchgoers at the Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, SC. Reverend Ronald Tan, a Filipino-American pastor of the Assemblies of God Christian Church of Carson, CA also appears on the call to support Trump. \u201cFirst Corinthians states: God chose the foolish things of this world to shame the wise and God chose the weak things of this world to shame the strong,\u201d he says. \u201cFor the Iowa caucuses, please support Donald Trump. He is courageous and he speaks his mind. God Bless.\u201d Johnson and Rev. Tan have been working together for several years. In 2008, they mounted a failed write-in campaign to remove six Latino judges from the Los Angeles Superior Court, targeting them because Tan felt they would be easier to defeat, especially if he was successful in recruiting other Filipinos to run. &#8220;When you&#8217;re running against a Caucasian, it&#8217;s kind of hard,&#8221; he told the <em>Los Angeles Times<\/em> in an <a href=\"http:\/\/opinion.latimes.com\/opinionla\/2008\/03\/carson-minister.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">interview<\/a>. &#8220;As Filipinos, our names are almost the same as Hispanics, so that puts us on co-equal ground.&#8221; Johnson, who was also running for city attorney at the time, had also submitted his name for a bid for a judge\u2019s seat. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailynews.com\/general-news\/20080401\/another-carson-city-attorney-candidate-drops-his-bid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Both efforts failed<\/a>. According to the Freedom Party\u2019s press release, He and Johnson are co-hosting a radio program that will be broadcast in Iowa from Jan. 12-22. Meanwhile, Taylor\u2019s American Renaissance announced earlier in the week that its fifth conference at the Montgomery Bell Park Inn in Dickson, TN will take place May 20-22. In their announcement, Trump was cited as one source of hope for racist White people in the upcoming year \u201cDonald Trump says what millions of Americans have thought for years\u2013and is much too popular to be silenced,\u201d the announcement read. \u201cAnn Coulter\u2019s Adios, America! sounds the alarm against Third-World immigration\u2013and is a huge best-seller. An Alt Right of young, cocky pro-whites terrifies liberals and conservatives alike. And a Muslim invasion is giving new life to the European \u2018extreme right.\u2019\u201d The blog Talking Points Memo says they were given a <a href=\"http:\/\/talkingpointsmemo.com\/muckraker\/trump-robocalls-white-nationalists-iowa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">recording<\/a> of the call by Iowa resident Dave Dwyer, who said in a phone conversation, &#8220;I&#8217;ve lived in Iowa a long time and I&#8217;ve never seen anything like this.&#8221; They also tried to reach a Trump spokesperson for comment but they did not respond. Trump\u2019s popularity among White supremacists has been prominent on various hate blogs and websites, and there has been several instances where people have shouted \u201cWhite Power!\u201d and \u201cSeig Heil\u201d at Trump rallies, often with little response from Trump himself. Ironically, the American Freedom Party is running their own candidate for president, White Nationalist Bob Whittaker, who is best known for his slogan \u201cAnti-Racist is Code for Anti-White\u201d commonly referred to by White supremacists as \u201cThe Mantra\u201d and used by racist trolls to post on various websites.;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We guess the American Freedom Party and Jared Taylor doesn&#8217;t think Americans hate robocalls enough!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2951","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-us"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2951","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2951"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2951\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5231,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2951\/revisions\/5231"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2951"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2951"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2951"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
