1:54:15 I've known about you for years, I've read your book, and you've had a lot of courage. And I follow your work almost every day. I see what you're doing. Without even trying to follow you, I see what you're doing. You're a warrior, and you're just awesome, and you're an example of what we should all do. I don't want to praise you too much, a little tragedy platform, but you've had a lot of courage. In one minute, closing comment. Well, my closing comment is... I would like people to start reiterating what I was saying. We need to start being involved, because right now we are facing Marxism. This is something that happened in my own country. You know, we had the same type of situation with the racial division, and that's why I was so able to quickly pick up on it when it started happening here, the same rhetoric that the Democrats were having.
1:55:04 I started to see the same thing happen here that was happening in my country preceding to the collapse. And for those of you who don't know, in Zimbabwe we had the worst economic collapse probably in history. I think we made the Guinness Book of Records of the worst inflation, and really leading up Hold on, I got loaded phone lines but I'm gonna host it in the next hour. I'll get to everybody. William, Barbara, Rob, Luke, First Timer, Galv, Jerry Boomer, I'm gonna get to you. But I wanna do three more minutes for you on the side. Because you're from Zimbabwe. People that know about that will come right back. Alright, final segment with our guest and I promise all the loaded phone calls, I'm going to and I appreciate you holding while she's been on with us. Melissa Tate, realmelissatate.com.
1:55:46 What a subject Zimbabwe. You could talk about the race war, the UN, the left funded, the communists funded. She lived through it. I mean, I've just read about it. Amazing. Or the trillion dollar notes. We can put those on screen for TV viewers. There's one. Reserve Bank Zimbabwe. What is that trillion dollar note? $1 trillion. That's beyond the German Weimar Republic. That's where we're headed. So you're just intriguing. I could have you on for a whole show just about growing up to you, or I guess you said a teenager in Zimbabwe. Spend a few minutes on that life lesson. having you see how great America was, not like you were some weak person. Once you got here, you thrived. I mean, we're glad we've got you. So, I mean, that's our empowerment. But for people that don't know what it's like to live in a communist hellhole, please tell them.
1:56:34 Well, you know, growing up in Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe was a beautiful country. I mean, when I grew up, it was just an amazing place to live. I wouldn't, I couldn't have asked to live there. They say it looks like Hawaii. I haven't been there. They say it looks like Hawaii. Well, it actually looks a lot like South Florida, because when my husband visited us and I visited the country, he was like, man, this place looks like South Florida. And then the next time we went, I was like, wow, it really does. I mean, it's beautiful. And when I grew up there, you know, it was it's a multiracial country, very cosmopolitan. I went to school with people from all over the world because they say that we have the best climate and the best weather in the world.
1:57:13 So it was great growing up there. We had a very strong currency. In fact, I think at one point the Zimbabwean dollar was one is to one with the British pound. So it was actually stronger than the US dollar. So when I grew up, Zimbabwe was a very successful country and people would migrate from other neighboring countries to come to Zimbabwe. So you saw go the whole process from a wonderland to hell. Yes, absolutely. So people would come in from other countries for a better life in Zimbabwe and then gradually things started to change and then you just see hyperinflation, empty shelves.
1:57:51 I mean, my mother, everything that she ever worked for, you know, all her life savings were gone. I mean, they were worthless. You know, it came down to the point where, you know, her entire life savings could just go buy her a bag of groceries. And again, I oversimplify it, but I mean, how did it happen? Obviously, it was the dictator, but what were the other forces that did that? Well, I think the main issue, there was obviously the farmers that were, you know, the farming situation that was happening there, production and farming. There was a lot of conflict that happened with the commercial farmers. The government just basically scapegoated the issues that were happening in the country. So just like the Russian revolution, they took over the farms, Mao took over the farms and it caused a collapse.
1:58:40 Right. Yeah. So 60 percent of production went down when that happened with the farms. Unemployment just became rampant. So it was just like a cascading effect to the point where, you know, the entire system just collapsed. So it was very sad to watch, but I came to the United States right when that stuff just started happening. So the height of the collapse was when I had actually come here to the United States. So I watched the beginning of it. So I remember being, you know, standing in bread lines. I remember, you know, sleeping overnight. in a fuel queue, a fuel line, you know, waiting for gas the next morning. So it's, yeah, I've lived it. So I understand it. And that's why I felt that the Lord has called me to speak up against it, because I feel like Americans feel like that can never happen here. I could have never imagined that would happen in Zimbabwe, because Zimbabwe was a great country, very successful, very peaceful. I used to walk home from school miles. Nobody would bother me. Very peaceful place.
1:59:40 And then that happened. So it can happen here. I totally agree and I don't want to give it a dumbed down answer, but I've read a little bit of history. I didn't live through it like you. Even though the quote white colonialists, the Dutch or whoever, or the British weren't in control anymore. Once that control was gone, the left said, get rid of the system too. And then basically that's what happened. Is that a. That's true. That's true. And that's what's happening here. And that's why I was able to pick up on the whole Black Lives Matter movement. You know, it's about, you know, finding a victim class and then pitting that victim class against the producers.
2:00:19 And then the victim class will then overthrow the system. And that's just basically how Marxism works. And in every country, they exploit different divisions. So in Russia, they obviously couldn't use race because everybody is white. But in Zimbabwe, we do have that. We do have white and black Zimbabweans. So they exploited that racial component of it and that's what they're doing here in the United States. And that's why I was able to pick up on it and that's why I wrote the book so that I can draw parallels of what happened in Zimbabwe with what's happening here in the United States. That's right, you do a great job in the book. Alright, join us again for an hour just on Zimbabwe. Just amazing. Thank you, Melissa Tate. RealMelissaTate.com. The book is available, I guess, all over the place. I read an online version.
2:01:08 It's on Amazon. A lot of people still shop on Amazon, but you can get it on my website. Oh, I don't care where they get it. They get it on Amazon. It doesn't matter where they get it. Exactly. A choice privilege. All right, Melissa Tate, God bless you. You're amazing. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Wow. She is impressive. All right. I apologize to the callers making you hold for an hour, but I had her on. The phones were loaded. I wanted to get to your calls. So we're going to get to you right now, but let me tell you, amazing. amazing what the globalist, the UN, and the left did. The white people aren't even charged anymore. It's like, well, let's just blow up the free market because whites did it. Let's get rid of capitalism here. Doesn't matter what color you are. You are inheriting, whether you're white, black, old, young, whatever, this system that's not perfect, but my God, it's a lot better than other ones.
2:01:57 And once the commies have blown everything up, there's nothing but starvation and death, which is what Klaus Schwab wants while he's in Switzerland laughing at you. I'm not bashing the Swiss, I'm just saying that's where Klaus Schwab lives. They've got their safe zones while they do all this to us. And I live in America. I love America. Like folks lived in Zimbabwe. And you know, sheep, we didn't get into that, but you know, they killed hundreds of thousands or drove out hundreds of thousands of white farmers. And you saw what happened. Once that happened, it's just the infrastructure was gone. All their contracts and all their know how and all the things they did, all things they knew was gone. The majority of blacks didn't want that. They tried to fight it, but the government wanted the control over the people. The government was jealous of independence. They were like, we can't have the general public here knowing how to run all this. We can't have the general public in charge of all this infrastructure get rid of it. Well, a couple guys in an army tank with machine guns don't know how to grow a bunch of vegetables.
