But Rense is not just the CEO of a hate radio empire, but a fellow ideological traveler and a self-professed friend of many extremists. He frequently hosts anti-Semites and Holocaust deniers on his own radio show, often endorsing their opinions.
on April 9, 2015, with former Klansman and raging anti-Semite David Duke, who has on the Rense News Network:
Jeff Rense regarding his relationship to David Duke: 鈥淚 wanna bring on at this hour a very good friend of mine for a long time. Without question all of you know his name. Many of you fortunately know of his brave and valiant work. He is one of the great patriots in the history of this country. For all peoples, ALL peoples.鈥
Jeff Rense praising Duke鈥檚 anti-Semitic propaganda: 鈥淸Your videos] are without question the most brilliantly conceived and executed videos I have ever some across exposing the truth of Zionism as racism and the tribal effort to continue to subjugate and crush the western world and if you talk about ISIS, don鈥檛 forget, Zionism is right in the midst of the construct called ISISm or ISIS and they are trying to eradicate all remnants, all forms, all remnants of Christianity from Iraq, just for starters.鈥
Duke on Israeli support of ISIS: 鈥淚srael has supported the ISIS movement, has supported even al Qaeda and I don鈥檛 know of any better and more powerful truth that Americans no longer control America but these Jewish extremists, these Zionists control America鈥︹
on May 13, 2010, with Holocaust denier , the first radio interview Zundel gave after his release on March 1, 2010 from a German prison where he served nearly three years for contravening Germany鈥檚 hate speech laws against inciting racial hatred.

Rense stated, 鈥淭he letters that you sent me are very much treasured and the littler watercolors as well, and I want to thank you for that.鈥
On the show, Zundel , 鈥淚 knew that I was innocent.鈥
Rense : 鈥淵ou were innocent, you are innocent, you always will be innocent. This was beyond an outrage.鈥
on Jan. 16, 2015, with , owner of , a travel outfit that takes neo-Nazis and others on celebratory trips to visit Nazi sites, and David Dees, an anti-Semitic illustrator whose 鈥渁rt鈥 is frequently featured on rense.com. Dees most recent notable piece was a graphic paean to Hitler on rense.com that wished the genocidal leader of the Nazi party a 鈥淗appy Birthday鈥 on April 20, 2015. Cooper is a on Rense the third Friday of every month and Rense serves on the Sharkhunters board according to Cooper.
Rense minimizing the Holocaust: 鈥淚t鈥檚 a very, very sad story of massive brainwashing that has gone on for 60 years plus, and it鈥檚 not going to change. They鈥檙e teaching Holocaust history now in primary schools around the United States and in Europe and it鈥檚 only going to continue to get worse. No one defends the Holocaust, whatever it really was. No one defends picking up hundreds of thousands of people, maybe a couple of million, putting them in work camps, otherwise displacing them, taking their possessions, that鈥檚 not okay. That doesn鈥檛 work for me, but to lie about something and then capitalize on it and make trillions of dollars on it ultimately, doesn鈥檛 work for me either. Now somewhere in between there is the truth and it鈥檚 up to you to try and figure that out.鈥
Dees denying the Holocaust: 鈥淎lso during the war, you know, they, the Americans and the Brits also flew over looking for any鈥lso they bombed Germany back into the Stone Age. They dropped 75-100 percent more bombs on Germany than Germany was able to drop on England. But they also flew over Germany and took these incredible photographs, detailed photographs looking for targets and they were well aware of the concentration camps and all these photographs, there鈥檚 not a single one that has anything to do with mass graves. There were no mass graves, there was nothing that would give you evidence that any bodies were being burned, there was no people lined up and they had all these photographs and they never talk about the fact that there鈥檚 not one single photograph or any evidence of a Holocaust of a gas chamber that was being used to destroy people.鈥
Rense minimizing the Holocaust: 鈥淵es, there were dead bodies in the camps, I must say David, but they died of typhus and starvation. Many of the other bodies shown as 鈥榓llegedly Jews鈥 are actually Germans immolated in Dresden for example, piles and piles of bodies its just鈥ou gotta hand it to them, they鈥檙e very cleaver.鈥
on April 15, 2013, with anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist , who is a on Rense鈥檚 show the third Monday of each month.
Marrs on Jewish people: 鈥淭he Jews cannot administer a country, they don鈥檛 know how to run a country, all they are, well they鈥檙e just plain, well, you know, they鈥檙e parasites. They can get into a country and take over its financial system, and use the propaganda organs of a country, but they really don鈥檛 know how to administer for the good of the people. They cannot even administer the economy in the nation of Israel today.鈥
Rense agrees: 鈥淚t鈥檚 greed. And lust for self, that鈥檚 what it is.鈥
