OUTLINE of today's show with TIMECODESBorder Chaos: An Inside Job by BOTH Parties Why is the response from Republicans NOT to stop the giant WELFARE MAGNET, but instead, a surveillance system E-Verify..., to stop work? No solutions offered, just fingerprinting and bipartisan virtue signaling about a bipartisan produced crisis 3:24 Illegal alien said they got to the border and no one was there so they just walked in.

He said he did, then said he didn't, now he says he did. 9:15 Trump at CNN — supports federalizing abortion again 15:55 Trump at CNN talks about Biden's high gas prices, but can't help from undermining himself with exaggeration and doesn't address the green agenda or "emissions" fiction 27:04 Why CNN Town Hall was a "yuge" success for Trump 32:33 Cringe Videos From Trump Rape Trial …and the cringe responses from the public.. 37:05 Trump at CNN — admits he says completely different things as a candidate than he does as President 44:12 Trump at CNN — Pence, Jan6, pardons for J6ers 48:14 RFK jr distances himself from Trump, says no to a trump ticket. 58:43 Henry Kissinger, 99 years old, says Biden's age is a big issue.

Starting point is 00:00:00 Come on, come on, yes, yes, come on. At this year's Cheltenham, glory rests in the lap of the gods. Oh, curses. Alas, our hero hasn't placed. But there are still divine offerings up for grabs, with all NoviBet customers getting a €10 free bet for every day of Cheltenham. And on top of that, we're paying up to seven places each way on selected races throughout the festival. I declare this a most generous offering.
Starting point is 00:00:25 No, we bet. More power to you. T&C Supply 18 Plus. Bet responsibly. Gamblingcare.ie. or just had a baby, are in a leg cast or had a lower limb injury, are taking the combined oral contraceptive pill or oral HRT, ask your doctor for a blood clot risk assessment. Visit thrombosis.ie. Using free speech to free minds. You're listening to The David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Thursday, the 11th of May, year of our Lord 2023. And I say the 11th of May because now even the HHS emergency has been removed. And of course, that has implications for the border.
Starting point is 00:01:54 We're going to begin there. I see the pandemic was always about locking us down in one way or the other and to steal everything we have. So this is the next stage to steal everything that we have. This massive collapse of our country, the great replacement. We're going to talk about what is happening there, the planned chaos being done from the inside iteratively. And then we're going to talk about Trump's appearance at CNN last night.
Starting point is 00:02:21 We'll talk about the massive corruption that is coming out with Biden and Santos. And of course, Santos says, oh, yeah, but Biden does it too. So I guess that excuses what he did. And then we'll also talk about my censorship on Twitter. By the way, and I'll mention that at the very beginning, I'll tell you that you may need to go somewhere else to watch it. But of course, if you're trying to watch it on Twitter, you wouldn't know this, but we'll talk about that coming up.
Starting point is 00:03:02 Just real briefly, one of the reasons we've got these alternative platforms for live streams, we have DLive, we have RockFan, we have Rumble. Do we have Odyssey? Are we live on Odyssey? Yeah, Odyssey is live as well. Several different places you can watch the program because things have been getting dodgy at Twitter. We'll talk about what is really behind it yesterday, but last yesterday,
Starting point is 00:03:25 um, as we come up later, we'll talk about yesterday. Twitter put a label on the full show broadcast said, this is sensitive content. Uh, you may not want to watch this, you know, the same kind of stuff that they do with bit shoot all the time. Uh, that's never happened to me before. And I'll tell you why it happened. And I'll tell you, um, you know, about what has there been anyway, we'll, we'll talk about that coming up. There's other things that are more important than, um, you know, my particular account here, just to let you know, uh, don't rely on Twitter. And we're trying to do something with Twitter to see if we can bring it back, but that's actually triggered this.
Starting point is 00:04:07 So I'll explain that later on. But the bigger issues, I think, we're going to begin with what is happening at the border. The U.S. is bracing for a migration surge, of course, today as they take off the Title 42. The U.S. reading its response, 24,000 law enforcement personnel, 1500 troops, they say are there. A group of Republican senators on Wednesday accused the Biden administration of responding too slowly. Attack the decision to stop Trump's signature proposal of a border wall. Did they, did he build a border wall?
Starting point is 00:04:39 They said he finished it. I, so how could Biden stop it? If Trump had finished it, i don't know uh and of course some of the people who were writing this partisan letter led by mitt romney is mitt romney um a border guy no not at all not at all he wants open immigration the whole thing is so phony that's why it disgusts me to even talk about it. It disgusts me to talk about Santos and about Biden's corruption and about Trump's lawsuits and all the rest of this stuff. I hate talking about it.
Starting point is 00:05:14 But we have to talk about it. That's what's at the center of what everybody else is talking about. And we've got to put it in the right perspective. And so the administration has failed to acknowledge the crisis at our border says mitt romney the republicans have failed to recognize this for the longest time that's that's why trump got elected in 2016 because he acknowledged it didn't fix it but he acknowledged it that's all you have to do as a candidate as As a matter of fact, there was one spot in the CNN, uh, town hall last night where they said, uh, yeah, but you said that you're going to do this and goes, well, that was, uh, you
Starting point is 00:05:54 know, when I was president, um, what's the difference? Well, you know, you're running as a candidate or your presence that completely never think for somebody like Trump who has no integrity, uh, and no fixed principles about anything. Anyway, uh, they can throw title 42 and all these rules at us said one 34 year old Venezuelan, but migration is not going to end. We're going to keep coming because we're hungry. And so the Republican response to that is like, well, if you're hungry, we're not going to let you work.
Starting point is 00:06:24 We'll put you on welfare. How about that? The Republicans and their border proposals. Did they ever propose cutting anybody off from welfare, from education benefits for me, that stuff? No, they left the big magnet there. If you can send your kids in and get a free education, they'll do it. Right.
Starting point is 00:06:49 Years ago, when they opened up Hong Kong Disney, you had so many people want to send their kids to Disney World, Disneyland, whatever it was. I don't know if they call it Disney World. Hong Kong Disney. They quickly filled up to capacity and they wouldn't let anybody in. And the parents who had brought their kids started dropping them over the fence. Hey,
Starting point is 00:07:11 have a nice day. See you later. You know, very young kids, very young kids. Uh, that's what is happening at the border. Frankly.
Starting point is 00:07:21 I mean, if people will do that for a day at Disney, well, they do for a free k through 12 and college ride what'll they do in terms of dropping these kids over and say hey you know um get your daca thing and uh citizenship maybe you can find somebody to marry or whatever or get a citizenship somehow and then you can bring us in that's the anchor baby thing and of course we'll all say that all these other people are related to us chain immigration all the rest of
Starting point is 00:07:51 this stuff uh look if you don't stop the welfare magnet if your response is going to be well we'll just stop people from working that is absolutely the wrong response what a crazy response from republicans isn't it? Wouldn't you think that the Republicans would want to say, we're going to stop the welfare. We'll let the work go, but, uh, no, we'll stop the welfare. No, they come up with something to stop the welfare. That is essentially a surveillance program, a path to CBDC and biometric database and tracking everybody in America.
Starting point is 00:08:26 Truly amazing that that's their response. And as a matter of fact, you know, the, the wall that was, um, Mitt Romney and the rest of them are so upset about the fact that Biden didn't finish the wall. But Trump said, yeah, the wall was kind of finished. He bragged about that. He did say, as he was leaving, he had a press conference with Greg Abbott saying, you're going to finish the wall, right? Is the wall finished or is it somebody else is going to finish it? Was it going to be Greg Abbott or is it going to be Biden that was going to finish Trump's wall? Or did Trump finish it?
Starting point is 00:08:58 Because he also held a conference a week after January 6th talking about how he'd finished the wall. And he posed in front of a long stretch of it. Here he is talking to Greg Abbott about the wall. And you're going to finish up some of the wall. And maybe they're going to finish it up. They're under a lot of pressure to finish it up. So maybe they're going to finish it up. You know, Tom is probably saying, I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:09:21 I mean, the real question is, do they really want open borders? Yeah. Yeah. Do you? Do you? Why didn't you stop it in your four years? Customs and Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz said that 26,382 migrant encounters were made along the border in just three days this week with a further 7,399 gotaways, meaning they evaded authorities.
Starting point is 00:09:52 Already El Paso's streets are filling up. And as they point out in this Daily Mail article, they said they came with money hoping to bribe their way across the border but found no one there. So they're going to bribe their way across the border, but found no one there. So they're going to bribe their way across. You know, it's an investment. It's like buying a politician. It's a great investment for a company.
Starting point is 00:10:13 You get thousands of percent return on your investment. This would be even better. You know, free welfare for life, free education, all the rest of this stuff. So they came with money hoping to bribe their way across the border, but they found nobody there. And after waiting for days in a dry desert encampment, they said, we just walked through the open door. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:10:34 She said it was border gate 42. Except that if you've got an imaginary wall, you know, build 45 miles of it or bill 450 miles of it, whichever it is. Uh, that's a really big door and a 2000 mile border. Uh, so what it looked like on Friday is anybody's guess, but of course it is already a beginning. And, uh, if you go back and look at, like I said, in January the 12th, the president went to McAllen, Texas, and as they put in the 45th mile of a new border wall there. At this year's Cheltenham, glory rests in the lap of the gods.
Starting point is 00:11:23 Curses. Alas, our hero hasn't placed. But there are still divine offerings up for grabs, with all NoviBet customers getting a €10 free bet for every day of Cheltenham. And on top of that, we're paying up to seven places each way on selected races throughout the festival. I declare this a most generous offering. NoviBet. More power to you.
Starting point is 00:11:44 T&C's Apply 18+. Bet responsibly. GamblingCare.ie. Blood cl. More power to you. T&C Supply, 18 plus, betresponsiblycamblingcare.ie Blood clots can happen to anyone, at any age. Be particularly vigilant if you are going into hospital,
Starting point is 00:11:53 have active cancer, or undergoing cancer treatment, are pregnant, or just had a baby, are in a leg cast, or had a lower limb injury, are taking the combined
Starting point is 00:12:02 oral contraceptive pill, or oral HRT. Ask your doctor for a blood clot risk assessment. Visit thrombosis.ie. Oh, 45 miles. Okay, that rate will get it done in a couple of centuries. There were other places where they repaired the wall. All together, 450 miles at the time.
Starting point is 00:12:28 And of course, when you say 450 miles, some of the wall was what you think of as being a wall that people cannot pass through. But some of it was just a blockade for vehicles. Pedestrians could walk right through. So Trump at the time says, they said it couldn't be done, but we got it done. It's 45 miles. One of the largest infrastructure projects in the history of our country. We got it exactly as you wanted it. Everything, including your protective plate on top. I'd say, why did we put that?
Starting point is 00:13:03 And he said, well well we need it for extra protection a climb plate and we have everything you want it's steel it's concrete inside the steel then it's rebar a lot of heavy rebar inside the concrete so i said um and we're now delivering all of this to your states including your state where your governor and your government are doing. I'm sorry, this is not the wall. This is a, he had to stop. This is January the 12th. He had to interject in the middle of this, a jab brag about how we got all this done. And we got the vaccine done too. He got the wall done. He got the vaccine done. He stopped the COVID thing. It's just,
Starting point is 00:13:45 he's just the greatest president ever, isn't he? I mean, who could be this great? Could George Washington have done any of this stuff? Of course not. Only Trump. And so now we're delivering the vaccine to the states, including your state where your governor and government are doing a terrific job and getting it administered in Texas. And Florida's doing a great job of administering the poison. The poison. They're calling it a medical miracle, he said. But then he gets back to the wall. He said, on the border, he said, when I took office,
Starting point is 00:14:18 we inherited a broken, dysfunctional, open border, and everybody was pouring in at will. So unlike what is happening now right uh and of course we had the caravans that came during trump as well as soon as everybody realized there was a huge drop in immigration at the very beginning why was that there's no wall there nothing had been changed at the border but they thought people were going to enforce the laws. See, we don't need a wall there. You need to enforce the laws and say,
Starting point is 00:14:50 if you're not here legally, we're going to throw you in jail or do something that people don't like instead of always enticing them and trying to bring them in. And so people thought it's going to be really bad. It's going to be harsh treatment or whatever. We're not going to try this.
Starting point is 00:15:07 So for about six months, people backed off. Then they realized that Trump was a paper tiger. And then the caravans started. And then it ramped right back up to where it had always been. And the only thing that he did to slow it down really was to change the rules. Right? What is Title 42? Well, it's a law that allows the Border Patrol to treat people differently rather than the catch and release in the United States or catch and transport further into the United States.
Starting point is 00:15:39 It is, you know, all of these infrastructure things, all these biometric surveillance IDs and all the rest of this stuff, just enforce the law. Why is it that we didn't have this problem in the 20th century to this degree? It's because of the massive welfare state and because of the laws that we have changed, the way we deal with people who are illegal immigrants. We give them preferential treatment. We give them free everything.
Starting point is 00:16:08 We give them in terms of welfare, they get better treatment than American citizens do, and they're coming from very, very poor countries. They'd be crazy not to come. For years, politicians ran for office, promising to secure the border said Trump only to get elected and to do the absolute exact opposite they even promised the wall but see i delivered 45 miles of it here and we repaired some other stuff all together got 450 miles of of a wall here with a 2 000 mile border
Starting point is 00:16:39 and what would that look like if your house was like that um would you have enough wall to hold up the ceiling unlike those who came before me i kept my promises the completion of the promised 450 miles of border wall 450 miles he. Nobody realizes how big that is. Well, I guess it's all your perspective. He's a great optimist, isn't he? Just build America, make it great. You know, is the border, is the wall one quarter finished or three quarters empty? He's a great optimist.
Starting point is 00:17:21 It's not even, is the glass half full or not? So, again, some of it was repaired uh some of it is blocking vehicles and not a pedestrian wall but even if it's all 450 miles of uh you know this repaired high-tech super wall. Does that really make much difference? Let's talk a little bit about the CNN town hall last night. Trump calls overturning Roe a great victory, but dodges on the federal abortion ban. So we're going to talk more about this when we come back. I'm going to take a quick break.
Starting point is 00:18:02 At this year's Cheltenham, glory rests in the lap of the gods. Curses. quick break. Each way on selected races throughout the festival. I declare this a most generous offering. No, we bet. More power to you. T&C's apply. 18 plus bet responsibly. Gamblingcare.ie. Blood clots can happen to anyone at any age. Be particularly vigilant if you are going into hospital,
Starting point is 00:18:36 have active cancer or undergoing cancer treatment, are pregnant or just had a baby, are in a leg cast or had a lower limb injury, are taking the combined oral contraceptive pill or oral HRT? Ask your doctor for a blood clot risk assessment. Visit thrombosis.ie. Before we do that, we'll be right back. Thank you. You're listening to the david knight show just like the wall roe v wade overturning being overturned by the supreme court is another mixed bag from trump he called it a great victory
Starting point is 00:20:04 with cnn but then when they pressed him on it he wouldn't say whether he would support a federal mixed bag from Trump. He called it a great victory with CNN, but then when they pressed him on it, he wouldn't say whether he would support a federal ban on abortion. If he is elected again, he said, you know, they wanted to bring it back to the States, but that was probably the least important part of that victory. He said,
Starting point is 00:20:19 no, that actually is the most important part, because by reviving this dead, trampled, cut out and burned part of the Constitution called the Tenth Amendment, that was the key to start pulling back the federal government in so many different areas, not just in abortion. And that's one of the reasons why you've got these statists like Lindsey Graham wanting to bring it back and statists like Donald Trump wanting to bring back federal control. They want that. They want every issue to hang on what they do. Just as the Democrats want to take our transportation and the rest of the stuff to make us dependent upon them. Here's a free check.
Starting point is 00:21:02 Here's welfare. Here's universal basic income. You're not going to have a job. We'll provide you with some level of housing. We'll provide you with some level of income, just like a communist country. And you will be dependent on us for everything, just like a communist country. These people want to seize control of everything that is important in our life. And this is a hallmark of somebody that you want to avoid, to think that the government is going to solve every problem, that the government should be the final arbiter of all of this.
Starting point is 00:21:32 So he said it was the least important part, the fact that you would say the federal government has no authority to define when life begins. This is something that belongs in state Scalia. Clarence Thomas got it right. Reluctantly enough of the other nominal conservatives went along with him that they got that past. It was the most important thing.
Starting point is 00:21:57 But, uh, what Trump says is the most important thing was that it gave pro life something to negotiate with. What does that mean? What does that mean? What does that mean? We've got something to negotiate with? Hey, I've got a Supreme Court decision here, so I can negotiate with you about this. No, life is non-negotiable.
Starting point is 00:22:18 Life and liberty are non-negotiable. I don't care if you call me an extremist. Extremism in defense of liberty and life, of course, is part of that. There's no vice. Call me an extremist. I am an extremist. I'm an extremist when it comes to vaccines, when it comes to abortion, all the rest of the stuff.
Starting point is 00:22:35 There's no room for compromise on these issues. There's no room for compromise on speech either. There's a lot of these things that are non-negotiable. And if you're a politician and you took an oath to the Constitution, they should be non-negotiable for you as well. So, yeah, it's just negotiable. Negotiable.
Starting point is 00:22:53 Everything is up for negotiation. Let me tell you something. When you look at what he said and did about Second Amendment, about pro-life issues and things like that, already in this campaign he's signaling, hey, you know, Second Amendment about pro-life issues and things like that already in this campaign he's signaling hey you know just trust me I'll figure out I'll do the right thing yeah he's gonna play 4d chess with us right let me tell you if Trump gets elected yeah it's gonna be 2020 all over again it's gonna be one backstabbing betrayal after the other. And of course, some of that stuff started before 2020. His gun betrayals and things like that, Second Amendment betrayals happened before that. He doesn't understand or care about the Second
Starting point is 00:23:34 Amendment. So of course, he doesn't understand or care about the Tenth Amendment or any of the rest of the Bill of Rights or the rest of the Constitution either, for that matter. How does the government work? He doesn't care. He's being elected as dictator, you know. And he'll do the right thing. He keeps saying that. Just trust me, I'll do the right thing. So the former president would not say how many weeks into pregnancy he would support.
Starting point is 00:23:57 See, it's not his decision. It's not the Supreme Court's decision. That was what the Dobbs case said. They said it's not the court's decision to decide when life begins. I would like to, you know, what this tells us when we look at this, and when they start talking about, should it be 15 weeks? Should it be 16 weeks? Should it be five weeks, six weeks? When they start talking about this and they start talking about exceptions i always think about the famous story about king solomon and he had the two women each of them had a baby and they're living in poverty so they're like in the same house or area or something like
Starting point is 00:24:38 that i had a baby at the same time one of the mothers rolled over on her baby and smothered it stole the other baby switched the babies with the other mother, and she realized it. And they went before Solomon and asked him to figure it out. And so, well, this is too complicated. I can't figure it out. Just cut the baby in half. And the real mother says, no, let her have it.
Starting point is 00:24:59 Ah, you're the real mother. We have politicians who say, let's just cut the baby in half. Let's cut the baby in half at 15 weeks or 16 weeks or 24 weeks or whatever. Let's just cut the baby in half at some point in time, and I'll make that decision. Well, you're not the real leader that we need, are you? You're not the real person that I'm going to vote for. Life for you is a negotiable. Isn't it?
Starting point is 00:25:27 Trump? No, it's not absolutely not negotiable. Um, because this is not just the life of an innocent baby over here that you're throwing in the trash. This is your life as well. They'll do it to you. If you get caught in an automobile accident. Oh, well, you know, the quality of life is not good.
Starting point is 00:25:45 Kind of like Terry Shavo. Just cut the life support. Or at the end of life, yeah, you know, they're pretty close to the end of life. And, you know, they're not a senator like Dianne Feinstein, so we don't need to, you know, put them in plastic or anything, you know, plasticize her and keep her going like they did Lennon. But you're not a politician, so we'll just cut the life support for you. You throw away the most innocent among us, their lives.
Starting point is 00:26:09 And I would include in that children like Down syndrome children. Some of the most innocent among us. You destroy their life. And you deserve having your life destroyed, and it will happen. From a pragmatic standpoint, even if you don't care about the morality of it, you better care about the pragmatism of it, because life is not negotiable, and neither is liberty. So Trump is going to make a determination of what he thinks is great for the country,
Starting point is 00:26:39 said Trump. He referred to himself in the third person. And what is fair for the country? He said repeatedly, I will do what is great and I will do what is fair. Right? So again, he'll do it what's good and great and fair for the country, not for the baby, not for the baby. And when he means for the country, he means for himself. The country is a collective that is trampling babies' rights. But the country is his political career, his party, his things. It's just as public health.
Starting point is 00:27:18 I'll do what is right for public health as they trample the individual health of each and every one of us. So I'll do what's right for the country as they trample the babies with abortion. I'm looking at a solution that's going to work, he said. This kind of vague demagoguery. And they pan out and they show the members of the audience and they're like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, I just love this. What a bunch of idiots they are. Absolute idiots. Last week he met with the head of the Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America. The group's president said Trump reiterated, it was terrific,
Starting point is 00:28:00 he reiterated that any federal legislation protecting these children would need to include exceptions for the life of the mother and in cases of rape and incest. So now we kill the children of rapists. We punish the unborn children for the crimes of their parents. How many times have I played for you clips of survivors of attempted abortions, some of them children of rapists. Then they were adopted by some Christians who took them in. Damaged children that nobody else wanted. You see, that's how we take our culture back. We do it with love. That's one of the things that characterized the early church. When the Romans would have, at the time the Romans were in charge,
Starting point is 00:28:47 that culture, that society, if a child was born, had some defects or nobody wanted it, they'd just take it out and leave it on the rocks to die. We call that comfort care when that's done by our physicians now. Blood clots can happen to anyone at any age. Be particularly vigilant if you are going into hospital, have active cancer, or undergoing cancer treatment, are pregnant, or just had a baby, are in a leg cast or had a lower limb injury,

Starting point is 00:30:17 We need to do this stuff issue by issue, not politician by politician. All the politicians are too much of a mixed bag and they're as corrupt and as degenerate as you can imagine. And so we need to just take these things issue by issue. Don't attach yourself to any of these filthy politicians, these corrupt, filthy politicians.
Starting point is 00:30:40 So Trump, Trump and getting back to the CNN thing here, Trump also claimed that gas prices are higher under Biden. So CNN decides they'll fact check him on this. Are you kidding me? CNN is going to fact check whether or not gas prices have gone up under Biden. This is the kind of partisanship that you see everywhere. Just mindless.
Starting point is 00:31:04 Trump's claims about gas prices are misleading. Yes. He said it got down to one 87 and they admit, yes, it did briefly fall to one 87 and lower during the COVID pandemic, but then Trump, even though he's got a winning issue here, he exaggerates it into a lie because he said, and they increased it to seven, eight, or even $9 under Biden. Well, you know what?
Starting point is 00:31:34 You can look at California probably got to the, I think $9 is maybe even high for California, but the bottom line is he's, he's communicating it with exaggeration with inaccuracy. And that's what they come out after him for. And then CNN comes back and says, well, okay, did get down to 187. But then by the time he left, it was 239. And it is now 353 or 480, you.80 in California right now. So if you've got a 75% to 100% increase,
Starting point is 00:32:11 that's something that you should talk about. But CNN now, because he exaggerates it, says, well, doubling it is not so much of an issue because he exaggerated it. We all know that gas prices are much higher right now. And that's just one of the many things that are there. Trump's claim that Biden shut down American energy, they said, is false. Well, take a look at the sanctions.
Starting point is 00:32:35 Take a look at that's why the prices are as high as they are. And of course, Trump doesn't want to talk about Biden emptying the strategic petroleum reserve right before the election and not filling it back up again. So he's enacted these Russian sanctions and it's the coming regulations that are going to be shutting everything down. I mean, it isn't even the big issue. It's not even the current price of gasoline. The big issue is the fact that he's going to ban it and ban cars de facto by increasing the emission regulations and that type of stuff. You notice that Trump's not talking about that. He doesn't want to take on the emission issue directly.
Starting point is 00:33:17 He doesn't want to take on climate change either. He didn't want to take on the Paris Climate Accord. He dodged that. He wasn't going to do anything about it for six months because the people that he appointed told him not to. And then he finally said, well, we'll get out of it the day after the election. Why would you wait for years to do that? And so he said, well, we're not going to be in it the day after the election. And then immediately Biden says, neither one of them had that authority.
Starting point is 00:33:49 They don't have the authority to say that we are signed on to a treaty you don't ratify the president doesn't ratify it in spite of what kerry and obama said they can't ratify a treaty he should have said it he should have said well they said that they ratified the treaty but you can't do that here's my executive order executive order saying that it's over with in case there's any question about it. But of course, the real culprit in all this is Mitch McConnell. Mitch McConnell had it within his authority when they said, we're going to self-ratify this. It's like, nope. He was in the majority at the time. He should have said ratifying treaties is what the Senate does. So we're going to call a vote. It would have failed. And that would have been it. Mitch McConnell was the one who could have shut it down.
Starting point is 00:34:29 And we kept talking about that, even during the transition period where it was clear that they were going to lose the Senate majority. We're calling on Mitch McConnell to shut that down. See, the Republicans as well as the Democrats want to sneak this gangrene agenda in on you, and they're not going to do anything about it.
Starting point is 00:34:51 So then they moved on to the documents. Trump said that he had every right to take classified documents with him after leaving the White House. He said, I was there, and I took what I took, and it gets declassified, he said. I had every right to do it. I didn't make a secret of it. You know, the boxes were stationed outside the white house. People were taking pictures of it. And so then they go back and forth with this about the documents. I got into a heated discussion. The two of them stand up, take steps towards each other.
Starting point is 00:35:23 And then of course, Trump comes up with a winning argument. It's simple. You're a nasty person. Incapable of responding, except in his own perceived interest or out of revenge, as his lawyer, formerly former lawyer said. And then the election discussions last night, Caitlin Collins, who was the person interrogating him for CNN, uh, asked Trump if he would commit to accepting the results of this election after he'd spent much of the evening railing against what he
Starting point is 00:35:55 called a rig 2020 election that resulted in his loss says, um, the Hill. Trump said he would only accept the 2024 results if he believed that no voter fraud occurred. Well, that's never going to happen. You're always going to have some voter fraud somewhere. He said, yeah, if I think it's an honest election, absolutely. And then she pressed him on whether he would accept the results regardless of the outcome. And he repeated, said, if I think it's an honest election, I would be honored to. Well, um, we'll, we'll talk about that.
Starting point is 00:36:30 But when you look at the way the CNN town hall was set up, uh, their audience is furious with them. And they've got, um, uh, Collins who's coming after him pretty hard, Caitlin Collins, and, um, you know, she had done that in the past as a white house Uh, Collins is coming after him pretty hard, Caitlin Collins. And, um, you know, she had done that in the past as a white house correspondent. And, uh, so it was very adversarial. As I said, you know, at one point they stand up and, you know, they get close to each other. He's a year, a nasty person, whatever. But, uh, the audience was all on Trump's side.
Starting point is 00:37:00 So the audience was all Republicans and independence and they were cheering him. They were laughing. The CNN panelists were absolutely furious afterwards, Jake Tapper, and all the rest of them. They were just, Oh, can you believe he said this? And you know, so, uh, there was a lot of pearl clutching after the event by the CNN hosts. CNN's audience is very unhappy with them.
Starting point is 00:37:25 And quite frankly, Trump played to his people. They made Trump look bad. You know, it was Trump and the audience against Caitlin Collins. Uh, so I think overall it was a big win for Trump. I'm sad to say, I don't want to see the man come back. I want him to go away. Please go away. Uh, Trump on CNN said January six writers had quote love in their heart.
Starting point is 00:37:50 Yeah. He said that, uh, Trump was asked at the CNN town hall, whether he had any regrets about January the sixth. I've never spoken to a crowd as large as this. Oh, of course it was a success because it's all about him. He doesn't care what happened to these people. Um, anyway, he says that was because they thought the election was rigged. Why did they think that they sent you money? It sent you a quarter of a billion dollars,
Starting point is 00:38:18 which you didn't use to protest the election at all. You kept it first. $8,000 went to Trump and the RNC. They split it first $8,000. Anybody gave, you gave $8,001. They'd give a dollar to, uh, Rudy Giuliani who didn't do anything effective. Anyway, he says, uh, they were there. They were proud. They were there with love in their heart. That was an unbelievable and it was a beautiful day, he said. And so then we should start pressing him about why it took him so long to have his supporters stand down at the Capitol.
Starting point is 00:38:56 I think this is probably his best moment. Frankly, he brought the receipts with him. He reached into his coat pocket. He pulled out a piece of paper and he said well let me read this to you and he reads tweets they were telling people to back out to 30 p.m i'm asking for everyone at the u.s capital to remain peaceful and all the rest of this stuff and he said that was taken down by Twitter because they started arguing about the timeline. He said, well, your timeline is wrong
Starting point is 00:39:28 because you didn't see what was censored on Twitter. And then he does a little commercial for his Truth Social at the same time. So, again, he knows exactly what he's doing. He knows how to play the crowd, and he pretty much, I think, owned Caitlin Collins. So, again, he knows exactly what he's doing. He knows how to play the crowd. And he pretty much, I think, owned Caitlin Collins. In the opening questioning of the town hall, Collins had said Republican election officials disputed Trump's claims about the election. This is Politico writing.
Starting point is 00:40:00 He sidestepped the pushback, questioning which officials had said that. Get specific. Give me exact names and that type of thing. So, you know, that's always a blood clots can happen to anyone at any age, be particularly vigilant. If you are going into hospital, have active cancer or undergoing cancer treatment are pregnant or just had a baby or in a leg cast or had a lower limb injury are taking the combined oral contraceptive pill or oral HRT. Ask your doctor for a blood clot risk assessment. Visit thrombosis.ie. The tactic that is used by people in a difficult situation.
Starting point is 00:40:36 First thing they say is, well, I'm so glad that you asked that question. And they'll say, give me names and a follow-up question. An audience member asked if Trump would, quote, suspend polarizing talk of election fraud. Trump responded by saying, yes, unless I see election fraud. So in other words, no, not going to do that. So then they started getting into the trial, where the jury just found in the favor of E. Jean Carroll.
Starting point is 00:41:09 Again, they awarded her $5 million in damage. They did not find Trump guilty of rape. They found him guilty of sexual assault. And as the New York Post headline put it, they grabbed trump by the wallet i think that's probably the best comment i've seen but when you go back and you look at this trial it's one of the reasons i didn't cover it but i'll go ahead and cover two clips here because i think it pretty much shows what an idiotic trial it was uh E. Jean Carroll had gone on, and of course many people talk about the fact
Starting point is 00:41:49 about her rape fantasy comments and things like that. Look at this cringy back and forth between her and Anderson Cooper, where she admits essentially that it wasn't really a rape. She says, yes, people fantasize about rape like it's some kind of a good thing. And then she comes on to Anderson Cooper, apparently, at the very end. It was really awkward. This is the clip.
Starting point is 00:42:15 Victim. You don't feel like a victim. I was not thrown on the ground and ravished. The word rape carries so many sexual connotations. This was not sexual. It hurt. It just, you know. I think most people think of rape as a violent assault.
Starting point is 00:42:36 I think most people think of rape as being sexy. Let's take a short break. Think of the fantasies. We're going to take a quick break. If you you can stick around we'll talk more on the other side you're fascinating to talk to he's trying to cut it right there let's go to a break and then she throws in two more remarks to dig herself down deeper i i guess when they went to break anderson said you're not my type that was a big part of this right uh saying that uh and i don't know i don't remember because i didn't follow this very
Starting point is 00:43:13 closely um this uh caption here says eugene carroll was not my type but i i thought that remark was made about another person who testified there. And he said, no, she's not my type. Anyway, yeah. Whoever, whether it was about E. Jean Carroll, whether it was about somebody else who accused him of sexual assault, they showed him a picture of the woman. And he said, oh, that's Marla Maples, who was his wife at the time.
Starting point is 00:43:42 While he was saying, not my type. But it was a person that he said, not my type of. And so I guess Anderson Cooper pointed out that E. Jean Carroll is not his type since he's homosexual. But then, you know, as bad as her throwing herself under the bus with that clip I just played for you. Well, I think most people think rape is violent. Well, I think most people think rape is, is violent. Well, I think most people think rape is sexy or whatever.
Starting point is 00:44:10 And yeah, it's like, what? Uh, then I think this is the thing though, this clip from Trump's deposition, he chose not to testify, but I think this clip from the deposition was a thing that,
Starting point is 00:44:23 uh, where they found that she was not raped. Look at her comments. She basically makes the statement she's not raped. But then Trump basically makes it sound like he goes around sexually assaulting women all the time. Listen to this. In this video, I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet.
Starting point is 00:44:41 Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything, grab them by the, you can do anything. That's what you said, correct? Well, historically, that's true with stars. It's true with stars that they can grab women by the?
Starting point is 00:44:56 Well, that's what, if you look over the last million years, I guess that's been largely true, not always, but largely true, unfortunately or fortunately. And you consider yourself to be a star? I think you can say that, yeah. Unfortunately or fortunately, and, you know, I am a star, fortunately, I guess. I mean, that's about as close as you can get.
Starting point is 00:45:24 She admits that she's not raped and then he admits that he sexually assaults people i mean the two of them what a joke that trial was but anyway um yeah there's there's much uh that you can put on there from either side trump dismissed the claims uh that she was sexually assaulted by him in the department store he claimed that he didn't know her when asked if the case disqualified him from being president, he responded that his polling numbers went up. And they did. He was telling the truth about that.
Starting point is 00:45:53 Shame on us. Shame on us. This guy who doesn't care about babies, he'll throw babies under the bus. He'll rip them apart to get become president uh and of course you know anybody that gets in his way i saw this with the democrats and bill clinton his bill clinton's poll numbers went up as well with that stuff and he was accused credibly accused of sexual assault of violent rape by many different women. His poll numbers went up.
Starting point is 00:46:28 I remember at the time thinking, you know what? A bunch of knuckle-dragging degenerates, the Democrat voters are. And yet the same thing is true now of the GOP. That's what partisanship does to you, isn't it? You know, we have seen it doesn't matter what people do. I thought at the very beginning when Donald Trump made that comment, you know, I could walk out in the middle of the street in New York and I could shoot somebody dead and they'd still love me, you know. And that's true. Most people won't say that out loud, but he does. And it was kind of a frightening thing that he would be so arrogant
Starting point is 00:47:06 and so narcissistic and so full of his power that he would say that and that the MAGA cult would continue to follow him after he said that and after he shot everybody in the arm worldwide see he should not be in trial for this these are all misdirections as i said many times he and biden and the whole lot of them fauci and the rest of them there ought to be a global trial if you will some kind of a crimes against humanity trial but certainly in the united states these criminals they've committed crimes in every country against they've got a long body count list in every single country with this poison and it's getting longer the effects of this have not been fully seen so that's his response and the response of the, um, Republican followers. They just love it.
Starting point is 00:48:08 He's so cool. He he's, he's a star. He can go out and do whatever he wants to do women, just like Bill Clinton. And we love him just like Bill Clinton. Trump said, congressional Republicans should be open to the idea of government defaulting as they were talking about the debt ceiling they said we might as well do it now because you'll do it later because we have to save this country our country is dying no i agree with that and i even read a lengthy piece by doug casey where he's talking about here's a thought
Starting point is 00:48:39 experiment he said what would happen if we did a controlled demolition of the debt and just default on it? And he said, and we should, because you can't stop it. It's a collapsing building. You just need to pull it. And so Donald Trump, as he says that, she came back and said, well, when you were president, you said it was wrong for the Democrats to use the prospect of default as a negotiating tactic. And he said, well, I said that when I was president. No principles. So now that I'm a candidate again, I'm going to tell you the stuff that's real. But, you know, when I'm president, I'll do whatever Washington establishment and the deep state and the CIA and the people who actually really run the government, what they tell me to do.
Starting point is 00:49:34 She said, so why is it different now? And he said, because I'm not president now. See, there's a candidate Trump and there's a president Trump. And they're two different fake personas. They're two different acting jobs. Well, you know, and both of these jobs he's acting,
Starting point is 00:49:53 he doesn't have any principles that guide him. No one that he is responsible or accountable to in his own mind. And so these are just a couple of different acting roles. And right now he's back acting as a candidate. And when he becomes president, we'll see what happens again. You know, you can go back and you look at the abortion situation. It was not just Susan B. Anthony pro-life America, but it was also Tony Perkins with the family research council.
Starting point is 00:50:23 They talked about abortion legislation and that, um, legislation and that it would be federalized again. So these groups, first of all, don't care anything about the Constitution. Trump, of course, doesn't care anything about the Constitution. Even from a pragmatic standpoint, they don't care about it. It's the same mistake that conservatives have made in terms of setting up government schools, as we talked about. We're going to set up government schools.
Starting point is 00:50:48 Conservatives are in control. We're going to push our values. We're going to push our religion, essentially, on you as well. And then it gradually gets taken over by the feds, and they start putting out their values. And that's what's going to happen if you federalize abortion again. It's not going to be your values. The best we can do is that we can't save everybody, right? We can try to preserve our family. We can try to preserve our community, maybe even our state. And we can try to save innocent life and establish
Starting point is 00:51:26 life as something that is the highest value, because you can't even have liberty without life. As even Thomas Jefferson said, none of the founding fathers would have ever embraced abortion. As he said, the God that gave us life gave us liberty at the same time, and the hand of force can destroy them, but you cannot separate them. You cannot disjoin them. And so you'll either have both or you'll have neither. And we can work to make that happen, but if we try to work to make that happen in Washington, we'll lose the entire ball game. And so from a pragmatic standpoint, from a moral standpoint, from a constitutional standpoint, these people are pursuing something that absolutely is wrong and cannot work. So they continue to talk about
Starting point is 00:52:19 January the 6th and talk about what had happened. He said he also included, he was also said he was thinking of pardoning many of the rioters. Hundreds of them face federal charges. He said, I'm inclined to pardon many of them. Yeah, they put that in here as included. They meant inclined. Trump noted that he won't be able to pardon every single one of them, but it'll be a large portion of them. Well, again, why didn't he do it? He was president for two weeks.
Starting point is 00:52:53 You don't have to wait until somebody is charged to pardon them. Is he going to pardon Julian Assange? Other people that have been persecuted, wronged? No. He pardoned a bunch of white collar criminals and some spies from israel friends of jared kushner do you trust him to do this well obviously enrico terrio is hoping that that's going to be his get out of jail card now they're going to appeal and i think they should i think it was a railroaded trial but um you know he's not going
Starting point is 00:53:27 to criticize trump he's going to you know baked alaska was up front about it the guy that goes by the name baked alaska uh he realized just how half-baked his this whole scheme was to start with uh but uh you know enrico terrio is looking at life in prison. And so he's still supporting Trump because if Trump becomes president, maybe he will pardon him. Trump also refused to say that he owed Pence an apology. And, um, he said he did something wrong. He said of Pence, he should have put the votes back to the state legislatures, and I think we would have had a different result, different outcome.
Starting point is 00:54:18 Well, as Daily Mail writes, and they're kind of right, I mean, the way the Electoral College works is not the way that it's described in the Constitution. And so they is a, you know, they've just ignored the constitution the way they do it. But Pence as vice president serves as a Senate, it's purely ceremonial role to oversee the counting of the electoral college votes.
Starting point is 00:54:37 And that is the way the electoral college is working now and the way that it has worked. Again, it's not according to the constitution, but Thomas Massey said at the time, now and the way that it has worked again it's not according to the constitution but thomas massey said at the time he said they didn't give us anything to work with we didn't have any state send us an alternative slate of electors and that's the key thing that had to happen if that had happened then pence could have sent it back to the state. He could have come in and said, well, I've got a slate of electors here from
Starting point is 00:55:06 the, um, the, uh, board of elections, which is under the governor, under the executive branch, I've got another slate of electors that were sent by the Republican legislature. And there were four states like that. Two of them, uh, all four states had a Republican legislature. Two of them had Republican governors, but still, if there were two official slates, in other words, the Republicans got together and sent state legislature, sent a different slate of electors, then there would have been, there would have had to have been at that point, a court case. And the courts said, we're not going to listen to any of this stuff. They all passed on it.
Starting point is 00:55:47 And it was ridiculous. It was shameful to say that Trump didn't have any standing for this. The courts all should have heard it. They all dodged their responsibility. And you could see that that was happening very early on. And that's why I was saying very early on, you're going to have to take it to the states and make your case, and you had four states where it was a razor-thin margin,
Starting point is 00:56:10 and they could have done it, but they didn't do it. And at this point in time, it was too late. And I even said that on December the 14th. I said, well, December the 14th, this is the day that everybody sends in their slate of electors and their votes. And, of course, the slate of electors are all associated with political party. And so, you know, you are, that's the way they've set it up now. That's not the way that it was under the constitution.
Starting point is 00:56:36 But the way it is now, every political party submits a slate of electors if they have a candidate on the ballot for president. And then if you win the majority of the vote, then all of your slate of electors go and they typically vote in mass for whatever the person was that was head of that party. And so they would have had to make the case at the state legislatures. They would have had to send another slate of electors. And then people like Pence and Massey could have said, okay,
Starting point is 00:57:01 we'll take that slate of electors that was sent from the state, but you can't send yourself. You can't say that I was an elector. As I've said before, I was an elector once. I was working with the Libertarian Party. I couldn't just say, well, now, you know, I vote for, you know, this candidate here, and that should be official. It's not official.
Starting point is 00:57:21 It has to be sent by somebody in official capacity. So they got into an argument about this. And as Daily Mail says, Congress strengthened the election law in the wake of the January 6th insurrection and clarified what the vice president's ceremonial role was. And so Trump said, well, if they change the law, that means that it wasn't settled at the time. And then Caitlyn said, well, why if they change the law that means that it wasn't settled at the time and then caitlin said well why did they change the law then he said they didn't change the law they strengthened the law she said uh and so um he said he asked her he said why did they change the law and they didn't change it she said they strengthened it oh they strengthened
Starting point is 00:58:01 it meaning that it was something that you could do, he said. And then the crowd that was that, you know, CNN put in a Republican and independent crowd, the crowd cheered him. And then he thanked them and so forth. But yeah, he had the point that, hey, if they're going to change this, and she used the term strengthened rather than clarified. But again, they don't really follow the procedures that are in the Constitution for any of the electors. It wasn't supposed to be tied into a partisan thing from the very beginning. He also said in terms of talking about the war, he said he would meet with Zelensky and Putin to settle the war.
Starting point is 00:58:37 He said they both have weaknesses, they both have strengths, and within 24 hours that war would be settled, he said. He wouldn't say that Putin was a war criminal, but he conceded that the Russian president had made a tremendous mistake, says the Daily Mail. Well, of course, if you're going to take the line that Putin is a war criminal, then you've obviously sided with us and you can't negotiate a settlement. Do we want to keep this going or do we want to have peace?
Starting point is 00:59:04 And that's the point. Going back to the after event comments, Alyssa Farah Griffin, it's kind of interesting, you know, she's Joseph Farah's daughter. He runs WND.com and very conservative, alternative media. It's struggled the last few years because he had a stroke a few years ago. But she went to work for the Trump administration, and she's another one of these people who went to work for Trump and then became rabidly anti-Trump and even anti-Republican. So now she's on The View, typically attacking Republicans.
Starting point is 00:59:44 And so they brought her on the CNN show, even though she's working for ABC. And they talked about what I played from the Trump deposition stuff, the fact that you can get away with it, fortunately or unfortunately. And they said, so what is that about? They asked her, fortunately? Why would he say fortunately? Yeah, I'm a star, fortunately. I can get away with that.
Starting point is 01:00:08 And so Farrah Griffin said, when Donald Trump tells you who he is, believe him. I mean, we wanted to chalk it up to locker room talk in 2016. It was not locker room talk. When Donald Trump tells you that he created the vaccine, believe him. Give him the credit for this thing. And when he continues to do it, no matter how many people have died from it, believe him. Anyway, she went on to say, I have countless cases that I brought to the chief of staff in the White House when she was working there because I thought the way that he engaged
Starting point is 01:00:42 with women was dangerous. We know these facts. This is something that's not just speculation. It's not just allegations. It's a jury of his peers deciding that he did this. And Jake Tapper says, wait a minute, you brought this to Mark Meadows, the chief of staff and other chiefs of staff incidents that you witnessed of Donald Trump behaving inappropriately with women? And she said, I did, as well as former White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham and others. But they don't really care. Matter of fact, as much as that E. Jean Carroll case was a joke because she couldn't remember when it happened or even what year. Comments that she made on CNN with Anderson Cooper.
Starting point is 01:01:33 As much as a joke that is. If you look at the long record, and we're not even talking about the Jeffrey Epstein connections of Trump. Inside Donald Trump's web of lies and payouts to 26 women who accused him of sex crimes. And this is a very long article that I'm not going to go into. But they name names. They talk about each one of the sordid details of this. This is from the Mirror in the UK. It's a tabloid, so they get into this type of thing. They said Trump allegedly forced himself on women at his New York and Florida homes, at beauty pageants, on planes, at restaurants, and in random encounters.
Starting point is 01:02:19 Decades of allegations of him allegedly forcing himself on women, going into teenager beauty pageant changing rooms. I didn't know he was transgender. Well, he does entertain the transgenders and the rest of the LGBT group at Mar-a-Lago. He virtue signals about it, as a matter of fact. So they recount all these things. And like I said, I'm not going to go into a detail on all this stuff. Uh, RFK Jr. Has just distanced himself from Trump.
Starting point is 01:02:52 You know, he had a lot of people, Roger stone in particular, uh, saying, Hey, we need to have a, a Trump RFK J ticket. Well, I think they already shared a plane with Epstein. Didn't they? Um, well, well yeah i guess you could see that anyway um he made it clear he said under no circumstances would i join donald trump on a 2024 ticket he's pretty smart he did it right before this event yesterday he said just to quell any questions under no circumstances, all uppercase.
Starting point is 01:03:26 Will I join Trump on an electoral ticket? He said, our positions on certain fundamental issues, our approaches to governance, our philosophies of leadership could not be further apart. But this is something that's been pushed a lot by the MAGA people. Again, Roger Stone, others like that. And so Rasmussen did a poll saying, asking people if you had a Democrat ticket of Biden and Harris, you know, Lala Harris or a versus a Trump Kennedy ticket, and it was evenly split 44 for each of them uh so you know nothing really
Starting point is 01:04:08 that was going to be a game breaker anyway so um uh kennedy made it very clear he said um talking about the border he said america should be a haven of freedom and prosperity open to law abiding migrants who will continue who will contribute to our society. However, immigration must proceed in an orderly, lawful manner. Right now, we have chaos at the border, human trafficking, criminality, intolerable stress on border states like Texas. It's a humanitarian nightmare, he said. And then he also talked about censorship being a direct assault on our
Starting point is 01:04:46 democracy. Well, we know where he is on censorship. He wants it for people who disagree with him. And again, if he's changed because he has suffered so much persecution and opposing the vaccines and good for him for opposing the vaccines, I'll always applaud him for that. And he told people the truth about Fauci and the connections with the CIA, dark winter and all these germ games, all of that excellent stuff. But he needs to walk back and explain why he wanted to throw his opponents on climate change into prison. It's not enough just to ignore that.
Starting point is 01:05:21 He needs to explain that and some of these other positions as well. We'll be right back. ¶¶ Thank you. Analyzing the globalist's next move. Music And now, The David Knight Show. Well, on Rumble, thank you very much, Geesebusters. I really do appreciate that. That's very generous. I appreciate the tip. He says, keep up the great work exposing that baby-killing traitor.
Starting point is 01:07:00 Well, yeah, that's it. I mean, he's about nothing. He has no principles except himself and his agenda, his perceived self-interest and revenge. That's what it's all about. That's everything. His lawyer who worked for him, the people who know him despise him. What does that tell you? What does it tell you when you got 26 people who have accused you of sexual assaults and you get away with all of them?
Starting point is 01:07:26 It's, well, maybe not one of them whatever but uh do you know anybody like that i don't know anybody like that would you hang out with anybody like that no would you expect somebody like that is going to save you and your family would you bet your future on somebody like that would you give money to somebody like that and that's just one of the aspects of his character yeah the baby killing aspect of the the jabs were enough but of course abortion as well let's talk a little bit about biden and we had henry kissinger come out you know henry kissinger is 99 years old and he says he's doubtful that older people can serve as president. This is coming out from the Epoch Times. And I don't see Henry Kissinger in the news too often anymore.
Starting point is 01:08:11 But he always makes it to Bilderberg. Bilderberg's coming up. And I went to several Bilderbergs. And I remember the one that we had in Copenhagen. That was amazing. We see everybody coming and going. And, of course, the people cover it like a Charlie Skelton on an annual basis, never miss a single one. They could not believe how they could see everybody that was coming and going and so
Starting point is 01:08:33 forth. And Karen got videos because we're right there at the hotel. I mean, it was right in the middle of a city. And the only distance that they had was a four lane divided road and didn uh, didn't have much of a, you know, it was in the middle of a city. So it's not the big divided median with a big, big grass like you have on an interstate here. No, it was just really a four lane road.
Starting point is 01:08:53 And we were just right across the street from the, uh, entrance. And so, you know, a camera and telephoto lens, you're like right next to them. And then, uh, you know know we could get right adjacent to the hotel and you had people like david petraeus a regular attendee there now as he would go jogging we get pictures of him and we had this guy who was chancellor of the exchequer at the time and um in in the uk he shows up and uh uh he's you know they want to tell everybody it's just a meeting where they just get together. They don't do business or anything like that.
Starting point is 01:09:26 He shows up, he doesn't have his ID and he starts fumbling through his rolling suitcase to look for it and it spills out. And there was nothing but papers. He had an entire suitcase full of papers. Oh, this is just an informal meeting, right? Karen got that on video. It was pretty amazing. And he lost the next election. It was the highest ranking member to lose the next election. But when we went to Virginia, you couldn't see anything. We were so far away from
Starting point is 01:09:55 everybody. There were trees in the middle of it. You couldn't see a thing. It just felt like a waste of time. And so the only thing I did that I did enjoy doing this was I got this Monty Python song about Henry Kissinger. And I pulled it up on my phone and streamed it. And while I was streaming it, we put the phone right up to somebody had, not us, but somebody else had a bullhorn. And so we put this song up to the bullhorn and directed it at the hotel. missing you. You're the doctor of my dreams. With your crinkly hair and your glassy stir and your Maccabees and young schemes. All right, so people say that you don't care. But you've got nicer legs than Hitler and bigger than Sherlock and Rick Kissinger. Oh, I'm missing you and wishing you were here.
Starting point is 01:11:16 Yeah. With your crinkly hair and your glasses there and your Machiavellian dreams. People say that you don't care. But you're so attractive. The 99-year-old foreign policy veteran recently told CBS News, the job of a president takes a certain capacity, a certain physicality. He said there's some advantages in maturity, but he also warned, quote, they are dangerous in exhaustion and limited capacity to work, right? With increased age. So I guess that's not true of people in the Senate, right?
Starting point is 01:11:52 Because we've got Fetterman and Frankenstein who just came back. They voted in Fetterman and it wasn't his age, but it was his physical capacity. I guess it doesn't take a certain capacity. Mental capacity doesn't take a certain physicality to be a Senator because we just had Diane Feinstein come back. Take a look at this. I mean, she is in bad shape and they say that she's had shingles. I don't know if she got the jab or not.
Starting point is 01:12:23 I mean, you know, being in a wheelchair like that and with her face frozen and her face is frozen, you can see it in several different pictures here, right? Here's a closeup of her face, the same, same face there. She's got, you know, her face is distorted. She's got like a facial paralysis, like Bell's palsy or something like that. One eye completely closed. The other one open. She's in a wheelchair, can't walk.
Starting point is 01:12:46 Is that Guillain-Barre syndrome? I mean, we've seen this type of thing with some of the celebrities, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, you know, having the problems with the facial paralysis and stuff like that. I don't know if dying Feinstein is a victim of that Trump shot or not, but, um, she came back. She didn't, she came back to Washington. She did not get back to work, however. So, uh, we'll have to wait and see.
Starting point is 01:13:16 And of course it's been a big issue with her missing. Diane Feinstein, we've been missing you. She's got a glassy stare now for sure that's she's not even wearing glasses um but uh yeah they've been missing diane feinstein and the calling to her i guess they were standing outside her hospital room with a megaphone playing a song for her but um without her there they don't have enough votes on the judicial committee for the Democrats to start packing in Democrat-aligned judges. Because, you know, we've got a political judiciary. It's totally politicized.
Starting point is 01:13:56 And they both do it. So, you know, why do we have the kind of trials that we have? Well, first of all, we got rid of trial by jury, uh, with the Trump up charges. And I'm not talking about Donald. I'm talking about everybody gets trumped up charges, you know, padding all the stuff and then saying, okay, well, if you plead guilty, we'll take off these other things that we added in there that are extraneous and have nothing to do with it. And so almost a hundred percent of the people do that anymore.
Starting point is 01:14:24 We don't have trial by jury. And of course a big part of it is when we look at the jury, I mean, you really want to trust yourself to the peers that are out there. They can't think for themselves. They're told by the judges to, I will tell you what to do. You know, you are not to judge the law. No, that's exactly what the jury is supposed to do. You're here to judge the facts of the case, not the law. Well, the jury is supposed to nullify any bad laws. One of the most important safeguards of our liberty is jury nullification. That's the way the founders designed it. We had trial by jury before this. We got that from the British. One of the key things that was added to Western society to support dignity and liberty was a jury trial. And they've managed to destroy that iteratively, step by step, from the inside, with chaos and with extra charges.
Starting point is 01:15:20 But then we have the people who, as I said, it's a completely politicized system. And that means that some people get life sentences for nothing. And other people like Ross Ulbrich, other people, no matter how corrupt or what they're involved in, they skate free like the Biden family. Biden family tried to hide over $10 million in foreign payments, says the House GOP. It's just amazing to me how long this is taking to roll out. This was known years before the 2020 election. And as I started talking about the Hunter Biden laptop and things like that just before the election, I thought, all right, you know, they've been waiting for years because I talked about it.
Starting point is 01:16:03 All right, they're waiting for years, and they put all this stuff together, and they're going to drop it as an October surprise. And yet they didn't. Nothing really happened. They dropped the ball. I know that there was a lot of social media pushback against the New York Post when they put out some of this stuff, but it was a very, very weak effort. As a matter of fact, it was the Trump administration that was in charge of the Justice Department.
Starting point is 01:16:29 But of course, who would he put in charge of the Justice Department? They put in Bill Barr, who was a CIA holdover from George H.W. Bush. So Trump, and it's his fault, had a deep state Department of Justice, and he's got nobody to blame but himself. And they failed to do anything to defend the country against a corrupt criminal like Biden becoming president. It's not just about Trump getting reelected. Let's look at what this corrupt person has done to our country.
Starting point is 01:17:06 The biggest failure of Trump was not that he didn't get reelected, but that he allowed Joe Biden to skate through. And so they've been talking about this ever since, but don't ever forget that it was the Trump administration that refused to bring charges against him. So don't expect that the Biden administration is going to bring charges against him. So don't expect that the Biden administration is going to bring charges against him. The Biden family received and tried to hide over $10 million in payments from
Starting point is 01:17:31 foreign nationals, said the house Republicans, a lot of ties to Romanian influence peddling. They bought some really, really corrupt people in Romania, but of course Ukraine was a big part of it as well. A web of 20 LLCs created while Biden was vice president with a complicated corporate structure. At least 15 of the LLCs were formed after Biden became vice president in 2009, several of which were owned or co-owned by Hunter.
Starting point is 01:18:12 These LLCs accepted payments ranging from $5,000 to $3 million. And Biden family members or business associates created a web of 20 companies. Most were limited liability companies formed during his vice presidency. So the memorandum and um they received over 10 million dollars from foreign national companies so a big web of shell corporations nested inside of each other this is what we always see we see it was zelinski so if we saw it with alex jones's finances right he's coming off way more than 10 million dollars with his family corporations and all the rest of this stuff but these complicated financial transactions appear to conceal the source of the funds
Starting point is 01:18:49 and reduce the conspicuousness of the total amounts made into the Biden bank account. So he's structuring deposits, isn't he? Isn't that what we said? The pedophile Dennis Hastert finally got him in jail because he was structuring withdrawals, not even deposits. And yet Biden wants to know, he's got all these shell corporations and he's structuring his deposits to keep people from noticing how much money he's putting in there. And yet he wants to know if you put in $600, that's his new regulation. You put $600 in the bank. Hey, file a report.
Starting point is 01:19:27 Point the finger at this person. The memo outlines efforts by the Biden family to hide, conceal, and confuse sources of money, including money from China. It is inconceivable, said James Comer during a press conference. He is a Republican from Kentucky. It's inconceivable that the president did not know it. James Comer, during a press conference, he is a Republican from Kentucky. It's inconceivable that the president did not know it, and the White House refuses to correct the president's statement. The president is now using the federal government to run interference for his family and his own role in these schemes.
Starting point is 01:20:01 And as I talk about, excuse me, the Romanian connection, I said the Romanian transactions outlined in the bank records released by the committee were from Cypriot, a company controlled by Gabriel Popoviciu, who was, let's see, the little puppet that it's over. I know. Anyway, the little mouse. Who at the time was under investigation for criminal corruption in Romania and later convicted for bribery-related offenses. Between 2015 and 2017, Robinson Walker LLC, one of these shell corporations he created, received $3 million from Bladen Enterprises Limited,
Starting point is 01:20:44 the company that belonged to this Romanian guy, which was then paid out to the Biden family members in a total sum of over $1 million. Biden family accounts gained $1 million from Robinson Walker and a series of 17 deposits, 16 of which were made while Biden was still in the White House. So again, they're structuring these deposits, but Biden wants to know if you have gotten, if anybody's given you $600 or so. Comer has expressed concern that the Biden Department of Justice will indict Hunter on relatively minor crimes in order to refuse to comment or produce evidence related
Starting point is 01:21:29 to a prosecution that is underway. In other words, Comer is concerned that the Biden Department of Justice will do what Ken Starr did with Bill Clinton, who was accused of massive financial corruption and crimes and influence peddling and of violent sexual assault and rape. And instead, Ken Starr ignores everything, but goes with a perjury charge when Bill Clinton denied that he had a consensual affair with Monica Lewinsky. So he says, let's not do that with Hunter this time around. Because that's the way these guys operate.
Starting point is 01:22:08 He said, my message to the Department of Justice is very loud and clear. Do not indict Hunter before Wednesday, when you had the opportunity to see the evidence that the House Oversight Committee will produce with respect to the web of our losses, with respect to the web of our losses, with respect to the number of adversarial countries that this family input penalty. And this is not just about the president's son. He said, this is about the entire Biden family, including the president. So we believe there are a whole
Starting point is 01:22:39 lot of accounts of the IRS and the DOJ don't know about because we don't believe they've done a whole lot of digging on this. And we spent the past hundred days pouring over bank documents. I've used subpoena power to get these bank documents. We've been meeting with former associates of the Bidens and so forth meeting with whistleblowers. So he's saying, hold off.
Starting point is 01:22:58 We've got more information here. Don't go for a lesser charge. And in terms of the number of people that are there, uh, it's that they've got on their sites in terms of talking about the, the, uh, family, so it's Hunter it's James Biden, the brother of, um, Joe Biden, Sarah Biden, Hallie Biden, Kathleen Biden, Melissa Biden, niece and nephew, and a grandchild, they're saying. Now, those must be minors because they don't mention their names.
Starting point is 01:23:29 Altogether, they identify nine family members who've been a part of these shell corporations and the structuring of payments and things like that to them. And so the FBI, while they're trying to put this together, has refused to give Congress an informant file that alleges that Biden took bribes while he was vice president. This has been learned from the New York Post. James Comer issued a legally binding subpoena last week requiring the FBI to turn over the file by noon Wednesday, but the Bureau instead replied with a letter raising various objections.
Starting point is 01:24:07 They refused to comply with this. Merrick Garland said last week that he stands by his testimony to Congress regarding the ability of Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss to unilaterally charge Hunter even if crimes occurred outside of Delaware. Now, Weiss is a Trump administration holder over, recommended to his post in 2017 by two Democratic senators. Perhaps he is the guy that you had Comer directing his remarks to. Don't charge him on anything until you hear from us. But again, he was put in by Trump, but he was recommended by two Democrat senators from Delaware.
Starting point is 01:24:50 NBC reported last month that there is growing frustration within the FBI over the fact that Weiss has not yet brought charges after they concluded their work. Weiss has been reviewing four possible charges, reported NBC, two misdemeanor counts of failing to file taxes, a felony count of evading taxes relating, relating to a business expense and a charge of lying on a federal gun purchase form. And again, they're apparently just looking at Hunter, uh, with his gun, uh, charges and so forth.
Starting point is 01:25:26 Senator Ron Johnson. And again, that was the house that put that stuff out. So you got the house that put this stuff out. You got a guy that the FBI wants them to go ahead and charge on some, some of these things and let's get this done. Then the cut, the house is saying, no, we got a much bigger thing here. Nine family members, more information. And we're still trying to get some other information that the FBI is stonewalling us on.
Starting point is 01:25:48 And so with all that happening, we have a senator, Ron Johnson, claims that the House Oversight Committee has proof that Biden paid tens of thousands of dollars on sex-trafficked prostitutes for his son, Hunter. He went on to describe just one of the several explosive findings from the committee investigations. He said, quote, we have the evidence that Hunter Biden paid tens of thousands of dollars for prostitutes
Starting point is 01:26:11 that were sex trafficked through an international sex trafficking ring. Is this Epstein or something else? Senator Johnson, furthermore, described Joe's enabling of Hunter's sex and drug addictions as sick And it is an addiction He's not just addicted to drugs, but he's addicted to sex And they're all addicted to money So, again, you've got Comer warning the Department of Justice
Starting point is 01:26:42 Do not indict him before we get this evidence out on Wednesday. We have a lot more additional information to come out. And then that brings us to the corrupt Republicans. So even though the House committee is looking very closely and should at the crimes of the Bidens, they're not looking at their own crimes. And as you saw the indictment and the charges and even the arrest of George Santos, he replied to all of this stuff and said, well, I'm going to defend myself. These are just allegations. And every time a reporter would ask him a question about any specifics, he goes, well, I'm going to defend that. And of course, I understand.
Starting point is 01:27:24 That's what you would do. But there's a lot of really strange things. I said from the very beginning about George Santos, Babylon B. I love the headline from Babylon B breaking George Santos arrested 534 members of Congress still at large. That's, that's exactly what is happening. One person they quote says, it's unsettling to think that that many thieves, rapists, and degenerate murderers
Starting point is 01:27:55 are still walking free in Washington, D.C., and throughout the country makes it difficult to sleep at night. Who will protect us? Well, Trump, obviously, right? Oh, wait. Yeah, he's a thief, a rapist, and a degenerate murderer will protect us while Trump obviously. Right. Oh, wait. Yeah. He's a thief or rapist and a degenerate, uh, murderer with his vaccines. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:12 Truly amazing. At publishing time, Americans grew even more worried upon hearing news that there are thousands more dangerous villains still on the loose and the FBI, CIA, DOJ, DHS, and DOD. Yeah. That pretty much sums it up. We've got a lot of criminals. That's why we call Washington, D.C. the District of Criminals, because that's where you will find them.
Starting point is 01:28:35 George Santos pleads not guilty to the federal indictment and says that he will not resign. And as I said, when he's in his press conference, he's non-responsive about specific charges which again that's something that's going to be litigated in trial so you would not want to comment on that however he says why are they coming after me look at biden this what about what about him what about him he did the same thing i did or he did more that doesn't make you innocent pal that's what's what about-ism. Get them all.
Starting point is 01:29:05 Get all 535 of them and the FBI, the DOJ, CIA, and the rest of them. Yeah, get them all. Nobody should get a pass with all this stuff. But that's the way they played this game in the past. And it remains to be seen whether now that the Democrats have decided that they're going to go after their political enemies and actually tell the truth about them. Maybe the Republicans are going to do it. Maybe they'll start coming after each other. between them rather than them starting a civil war between us, trying to get, uh,
Starting point is 01:29:45 all the different groups of us, different ethnic groups and cultures and, um, you know, skin colors to fight each other. How about if they all fight each other? Santos is 13 count. Federal indictment was a reckoning for a web of fraud and deceit that
Starting point is 01:30:02 prosecutors say overlapped with a New York Republican's fantastical public image as a wealthy businessman, a fictional biography that began to unravel after he won election last year. Now this is coming from the AP, but look, I said from the very beginning, I don't really see how he's got any explanation for these things that were found out about him. It absolutely is not credible. And he hasn't really offered any explanation. We'll see what happens in the trial. Again, these are still allegations,
Starting point is 01:30:30 but I found them to be incredibly credible. And I said from the very beginning, his real issue was not that he lied about everything in his life, that his entire resume was completely made up. I said the big issue is that he lied on these financial forms and now he's got criminal charges that can be brought against him for that. And, uh, I think the most troubling thing about this is the fact that Kevin McCarthy and people like Marjorie Taylor green really don't care.
Starting point is 01:31:02 I don't care about any of this stuff. They never took any disciplinary actions to kick him out. And he should have been kicked out by them. They looked at it. It's like, Hey, we finally got a Congressman from New York. Let's keep him there. I don't care what he did.
Starting point is 01:31:17 This is the kind of thing they consider that to be pragmatic. They consider that to be winning, but it's going to cost them more than they realize. Santos is accused of lying about his finances on congressional disclosure forms. That's the key thing, obtaining unemployment benefits while he was making $120,000 as a regional director of an investment firm, he lied to get unemployment benefits and that the government and this investment firm, the government shut down in 2021 over allegations that it was a Ponzi scheme.
Starting point is 01:31:53 So he's got a lot of fraudulent schemes like that. And then, of course, you know, the brazen misrepresentations about who he is and what he's done in his life. All of that is something that is um par for the course of politicians santos was elected to congress last fall after a campaign built partly on lies says the associated press uh they're being very careful here if these allegations are true and they certainly do seem to be true, there seems to be plenty of evidence that he built his entire campaign on falsehood. He told people he was a wealthy Wall Street dealmaker with a substantial real estate portfolio. He'd been a star volleyball
Starting point is 01:32:37 player in college, among other things. And you know, Morgan Fairchild is my wife. No, actually, he lied about his sexual orientation. Perhaps. I don't know. Santos reportedly made $750,000 a year from a family company charges unsealed on Wednesday said that he never received the, that sum nor the $1 million and $5 million in dividends that he listed as coming from the firm. And that was always my question.
Starting point is 01:33:04 So where did his money come from for the campaign? Did somebody, you know, he did have some money from somewhere. He was running this business. He was a broker for sales of luxury items like yachts and aircraft and things like that. That's what they accused of being a Ponzi scheme. And at the same time that he says he's making this fabulous amount of money, he is going from place to place with landlords chasing him for being behind in the rent.
Starting point is 01:33:30 I mean, none of this stuff adds up, but the Republicans don't care. They absolutely don't care. So when we come back, we're going to be talking to Tony Artaban and we're going to talk about the biggest Ponzi scheme of all at dwarfs, anything that Santa's did federal reserve, what's going on with our currency? Tony Arderman of Wise Wolf is going to be joining us in just a second. We'll be right back. Decoding the mainstream propaganda it's the david knight show
Starting point is 01:34:30 all right welcome back and joining us now is tony artaban of wise wolf dot gold and again tony sells gold silver you can also get bitcoin i think still maybe from tony you let us know about that a great place i've always known tony for a long time. He's a supporter of this program. He's even set up davidknight.goal so that you know that we sent you to him. But I always like to get Tony on to talk about what is happening with these Ponzi schemes. And of course, you told me as we were connecting that you're now in Texas right now, and a lot of things are happening in Texas. What do you think of this Texas move to try to establish a gold-backed digital currency in Texas? Well, again, always great to see you, David.
Starting point is 01:35:16 Yeah, I'm coming to you live from Denison, Texas, our wise wolf gold and silver Denison. And then in the background, you can see Bo the buffalo. This is my mom's antique mall, and I've got my little office here at the front of the antique mall. Yeah, the buffalo is great. We had a David Knight listener show up yesterday to meet with me on turning in some of their gold and maybe restructuring some stuff to buy some land. And they got to see the buffalo. It's always a good uh accent piece to put up in the office here but yeah you know this this deal
Starting point is 01:35:52 in texas i have mixed emotions on it's kind of like you um i think it's great to have uh states introducing their own currencies uh for competition because decentralization is important right now as we go into watch the dollar uh the de-dollarization of civilization unravel and i think it's going to be more important for us to have alternative currencies but i'm with you on the digitized part uh the blockchain part uh i i don't really when a state runs something when it's something run by a government that is connected to the blockchain i get nervous yeah you know they also talked about and you also have to watch a little bit is the state trying to get into the business of being a gold and silver broker do
Starting point is 01:36:36 they want to be the end-all be-all uh it's kind of like when people say does the dollar uh need to be pegged to gold again um you know i i i don't think so because we already have a gold standard um the dollar is kind of irrelevant at this point i mean the the gold and silver standard are worldwide we talked about this last week i say this every week on my show uh we have a bitcoin standard we have other decentralized currencies i don't we don't need governments for currency because we already have decentralized public monies and again money and currency are two different things so i'm going to be agnostic for right now for the uh the texas-based gold currency because i don't know if they're are they get in between the public and gold and silver with this. That is a good question, because really, you want dealers, you want people that you want competition in the marketplace.
Starting point is 01:37:35 If you go back to, you know, when Franklin Roosevelt made it illegal for you to own gold with an executive order, which is, by the way, unconstitutional, but he did it anyway. And a large portion of the United States turned their gold in. But I happen to have proof that a big portion of them did not, because pretty much every week I'm buying pre-1933 gold coins that people did not turn in. I own many of them, and I have some of them here behind me in the shelf for display and for sale. So a lot of people didn't turn in. I own many of them and I have some of them here behind me in the shelf for display and for sale. So a lot of people didn't do that. And so, you know, we weren't able to own gold until 1974. It was Gerald Ford who overturned that executive order by Franklin Roosevelt. So, you know, kudos to Gerald Ford making it legal. So when he did that, you
Starting point is 01:38:24 know, Nixon had taken us off the gold standard in 71. At that point, it's just, you know, kudos to Gerald Ford making it legal. So when he did that, you know, Nixon had taken us off the gold standard in 71. At that point, it's just, you know, I don't need the dollar. If you're not going to peg it to gold. And when they did, again, the whole point I was trying to make when they pegged it to gold after Breton, what you couldn't even own gold. Yeah, that's right. So I would rather I'd rather have have the gold and you can have your fiat currency and do what you need to do. And maybe I convert my money into whatever I have to do to pay your bills if I have to. Uh, but I, but I don't think that the two shouldn't should merge.
Starting point is 01:38:52 I think it's skeptical of that. I think it's a much better approach of what you've talked about in the past, how Utah and other, some other states have created a gold, a paper gold. That's not the, uh, uh, the, the thing that you buy in the stock market but like a note that's got a trace physical amount of gold on it that's something that you physically hold it's anonymous the government is not tracking you i'm very leery anymore of anything that becomes digitized so i guess maybe we could call that whole texas uh scheme we could call that smart gold anytime they talk about something smart whether it's a smart car or a smart city you know they got the smart guns maybe this would be smart
Starting point is 01:39:32 gold and maybe their smart gold might be just like a smart gun it may not work when you want to fire it it's true that i've seen some in real in real life i've seen some of those uh smart bombs david they weren't so smart uh really really evil things and you know maybe maybe it could be 15 minute gold uh because you have it for 15 minutes and you know i just don't trust any government i like it when they decentralize things i like when they deregulate uh you know make bitcoin legal make bitcoin legal tender make gold and silver legal tender but when you start getting into the realm of currency i really don't need you the government for that and uh i'm skeptical when they do it well let's talk about
Starting point is 01:40:10 this because you know even when they get into the realm of currency and they try to print coins and of course the constitution says they will issue gold and silver coins but they don't do that and so the u.s mint lost 171 million minting coins, like pennies and nickels and dimes and stuff like that, because of rising raw material costs. They said it costs now two and a half cents to make a penny and 10 cents to make a nickel, even though they're using junk metal in it. They still do that. Complete base metal. Yeah, they lost $171 million. And so the response is, well, maybe we need to get rid of pennies.
Starting point is 01:40:48 I think you need to get rid of the mint. I think that's the real issue. I think you need to get rid of the federal government. As you're pointing out, you know, we can, we can have silver and gold. That's what it's supposed to be in terms of money. Uh, you know, even the dimes are, they're losing money on it because the dimes don't have any silver in them. They wouldn't be losing money if If it had silver in it,
Starting point is 01:41:06 they'd be able to mint it and, and so forth. But, you know, if they're going to put junk metal in there, then the, you know, they,
Starting point is 01:41:12 they can't do it and have it be worth anything. Well, a little tip for your listeners, any penny made before 1982 is copper. Hold onto that. It's worth, it's worth a lot more than 2 cents. So you should,
Starting point is 01:41:23 you should keep that penny. And, you know, this goes back to when they took the silver out of our dimes quarters half dollars and dollars in 1965 uh just completely debasing that currency and you know that as we continue to devalue the dollar uh by endless printing for the welfare warfare state uh driving it into inflation, those coins get worth less and less. Yeah, you know, they had been an argument, you know, during COVID was, you know, well, the change is dirty, and the currency is dirty. I don't know if they're just, you know, throwing out these headlines and things like, oh, it costs so much to do this, because now it may be more fiscally responsible for us not to make the change. You know, that's something again, that's y'all.
Starting point is 01:42:06 That's the fault of the government. You guys did that. You debased the currency, but don't punish us. We need cash. I like coins. I think I think it's it's it's important for us to have the freedom to be able to pay in, you know, with physical currency. And that's something I'm going to fight for, Even though I don't like the currency of the day, I don't like Luciferian bankster notes.
Starting point is 01:42:27 I don't like the dollar. But I do think that it's necessary for us for freedom to exist. You have to have the ability to have currency in your hand. That's right. Well, that's the whole point is to get rid. We just got to get rid of the cash, right? That's the whole point in that article. Real clear wire.
Starting point is 01:42:50 Maybe we should just reconsider the fact that we should have cash and and just uh take all this stuff away no again the problem is not the coins the problem is the federal reserve system problem is the mint the problem is the corrupted money uh that doesn't have any real intrinsic value in it but they will always use whatever problem they have created they will use that to uh for control of us and to create more problems won't they uh so that that's where they're going to go on this and um and we can see that coming from a mile away and of course when it comes to the crypto stuff and the digital stuff uh you know we look at the um just like the discussion we're having with e-verify right some? Some people say, what's the difference between E-Verify and I-9? Well, the difference is biometric surveillance and tracking and the digitized aspect of it
Starting point is 01:43:32 and the power that comes with that digitized aspect. You know, the I-9 is a form that employers would fill out and send in, and it could theoretically be used against them if they wanted to audit somebody and come in and take a look at whether the people really were who they were. But the digitized thing gives them full control, full visibility. It gives them a national, perhaps global ID and creates a biometric database. And it also gives them preemptive control over everything that we do. And so that's really the issue with the digital side of it. Oh, absolutely.
Starting point is 01:44:08 You're talking about E-Verify, and that's a poison pill. Yeah. And that's something we have to reject that. We're always getting into the business of doing the government's job for them under the guise of, this is all for the good, and it's to protect us. And we can't do anything about the border. We don't have a military. We don't have authority to we don't we don't have
Starting point is 01:44:25 authority to do that that's their that's their only job and they fail at it i mean they blame you know they put everything back on us it's kind of like after 9-11 which you know inside job but let's 9-11 they said oh we were just completely uh taken by surprise you know the the fbi didn't talk to the cia so let's see let's create create a third bureaucracy. And while we're at it, we're going to punish you. We're going to punish you, the American people. We're going to take away your Fourth Amendment rights. We're going to surveil you. We're going to be able to detain you indefinitely.
Starting point is 01:44:54 We're going to punish you for the things that we failed to doing. I mean, that's really what they're saying. And I remember listening years ago, Neil Bortz, a libertarian talk radio host, when I was a soldier at Fort Bragg, he had a great point. He says, oh, so we were able to beat the Nazis and the Japanese in World War II without a Patriot Act, but we can't find these people in a cave without taking away your bill of rights. And that was a great point. And, of course, it was not for that. Every time they create the problem they themselves have caused and they throw it back on us to take away our liberties and that's what you verify central bank digital currency all any kind of centralization is why when the state comes out with something
Starting point is 01:45:34 whether it's anything it's a currency it's a it's a it's an id system i i want to reject it that's my first reflex is to reject it yeah you know uh they've come up because they want to reject it. That's my first reflex is to reject it. Yeah, you know, they've come up because they want to have central control and because they want to have the only control of all of our money. They're very concerned about crypto, and so they've come up with this 30% tax now. They even call it a digital asset mining energy tax, a DAME. There's nothing like a DAME, is there? So it's a DAME thing. It's going to be it's a dame thing it's going to be a 30 tax but it's going to be a tax you have to anybody that would mine cryptocurrency would have to tell
Starting point is 01:46:13 them uh that you know how much how much energy they're using and what form of energy it is and they would be taxed on that and even even if they produce their own energy, they would still charge them a tax on it. I mean, it's clearly a means of shutting down any competition to their digital coin, I think is what we're seeing here. Oh, absolutely. And you know, there was a, I read a great book called beef and Bitcoin, uh, just about comparing the beef industry and bitcoin it was it was a really
Starting point is 01:46:45 interesting take and uh they talked about the the usage of bitcoin the network how much how much energy does it take to run the network and this author actually just did the math and uh you know took the the banking sector just uh what you see out in the open and and the all the atms all the branches and said let's just do a rough estimate of the power it takes to just run the what you see out in the open and and the all the atms all the branches and said let's just do a rough estimate of the power it takes to just run the what you can see of the financial system and it dwarfs bitcoin by like factors of a hundred it's it's massive you know like it just drowns it out yeah so you know you talk about their the nsa's uh surveillance system the underground deal in utah and all the other servers that they run, the military industrial complex is all a ruse. But I think, I think it'll be a lot like prohibition
Starting point is 01:47:30 where they make something so much more valuable by attacking it because they're pretty bad at what they do. I mean, it's like, if you, if we're winning, did we win the war on terror? I mean, we made the terrorists. I don't really know. I mean, it's kind of like Gore Vidal said it would be like a war on dandruff, you know, because you never really win it. But I think that they're making something more ubiquitous by attacking it. I think there are other other countries will take advantage of what the United States is trying to do. Going after Bitcoin, doing this controlled demolition of the banking system, trying to piggyback the CBDC off of, what, four or five different banks, David?
Starting point is 01:48:09 I don't know exactly how they're doing it, but they're definitely putting pressure on regional banks. They don't want competition. So I see this. I see what's happening. And I think, well, at one hand, you know, they're going to pass more regulation against Bitcoin. I think we can accept that um but can they destroy it it's an open question because a lot of these a lot of other uh entrepreneurs uh networks they'll move away you know they'll go they'll go somewhere that where they're welcome and i love i mean honestly you know i i like what's going on with uh the competition of currencies i don't like what's going on with the competition of currencies.
Starting point is 01:48:47 I don't like what's going to happen to my fellow Americans. I care about people. I care about this country and it's going to hurt us economically. But from a moral standpoint, from a liberty standpoint, it might be good for us to go ahead and get get our comeuppance and lose that reserve status and go ahead and have that introspective moment to where we say, what's the best way to get back on our feet? I mean, are we going to start making things again? Are we going to have sound fiscal policy again? Are we going to have liberty again? Maybe that throws off the yoke of this imperialist regime. I don't know. I try to be as hopeful as I can in the face of the apocalypse that seems to be unfolding faster and faster
Starting point is 01:49:28 every day. It was something Lennon said about there's decades where nothing happens and there's weeks where decades happen. We're definitely in that phase. The amazing amount of stuff that's rolling out every single day. You and I were talking off air about what's happening. Ron Paul put out that article on, he thinks that the U.S. is trying to drag NATO into the Taiwan conflict. I mean, I didn't see that coming a couple of years ago.
Starting point is 01:49:57 I think this is insane. Look at how much money the Biden administration is giving to Taiwan. You know, another week, another couple of billion dollars. And so they're pumping money and weapons into Taiwan in the same way they're doing it into Ukraine. And so that's, uh, it's pretty clear. I actually agree with Ron Paul on that. That's, uh, it just take a look at the money, just follow the money and you, and the weapons and you see what they're doing in terms of building it up.
Starting point is 01:50:21 Yeah, it is, uh, it is disturbing to see it. And you know, see it. And when Biden talks about how he wants to reset our society, he's very excited about these sanctions that he's got. He says it's going to be very painful, but it's going to get us to where we want to go. Well, where do we want to go? We want to go to their gangrene society where everything is public-private partnerships, crony capitalism, and all the rest of this stuff, and nothing for us. They've shut us down. And he says, it's going to be painful,
Starting point is 01:50:47 but we're going to get to the kind of society we want to have. Well, they're going to make it painful for us one way or the other. You're talking about this, Tony, in terms of the collapse of the dollar as a reserve status, which is rolling out every week. We see more nations abandoning the dollar and trying alternatives. But it is going to be a very painful process for us to go through but we have to understand that their alternative is going to
Starting point is 01:51:11 be painful and we have to understand that it gives us an opportunity to take some of the power and the control back from these people even though we would go through something like that so that's something we need to keep in front of our mind. And that is that it's going to be difficult either path that we take, but there's one of the paths that has a good outcome. And that's the one that we should be trying to focus on. Well, I agree with you wholeheartedly. And it looks like they're running out of time.
Starting point is 01:51:41 The regime is running out of time to save their system. Something interesting happened a few weeks ago, and I don't know if I've mentioned it running out of time the regime is running out of time to save their system um something interesting happened a few weeks ago and i don't know if i've mentioned it on your show uh president macron of france he made a visit to china told xi jinping hey we're you know we're not really with the us on this whole taiwan thing which i thought was a massive blow and fracturing to nato so as you see the dollar slipping as the world's reserve currency as you see the united i mean we must be viewed around the world with horror and like people like oh my goodness like a schizophrenic uh banana republic with nuclear
Starting point is 01:52:16 weapons don't even know who they are you know we're trying to you know plant our rainbow flag everywhere you know drive trillions into debt so i don't think we're viewed with any sort of respect anymore just mostly like a flailing psychopath and I think they want to get out of the way uh so you see that that fracturing that could be great for us I mean we we lose we can't take NATO to war uh that would be great just you know try to broker a piece in in Ukraine we just we see those those alliances we talked you and i talked about south korea uh and they're they're switching of the you know for currencies looking at bricks uh you know brazil did the same thing and switching over from the from the dollar to the yuan saudi arabia who's long been uh considered our ally i mean that was the only people that could fly after 9 11 you know
Starting point is 01:53:01 bush was holding hands with the prince walking around and the Bush family loves them. The House of Sod, they're applying for BRICS. The whole thing is crumbling and which is dangerous territory because they have to be running these simulations, seeing what the outcome is going to be if they lose and fracture the alliances and lose reserve currency status. So it's, you know, you have to polarize uh you'd have to just to get a hot war going uh so i this is dangerous time but there is opportunity uh you know we saw the the way that the the soviet union collapsed and it was quick you know and you you probably i mean you have to remember this gorbachev going on christmas day and calling it quits um i i hope it's peaceful like that again not an into an america but an into the american empire which is uh which is really what's bled us drive our
Starting point is 01:53:52 liberty our treasury uh our morality uh you know this is something you know even socrates talked about you know when you have a perpetual warrior war you lose your culture in it it dies with it and we've just been we've been in constant war uh whether you know whether we started it or somebody attacked us but usually it's a false flag right so it's all based on false pretenses in the first place so it's uh immoral dragging us down fiscally financially morally um and of course the dollar is the lifeblood of that and we talk about the biggest ponzi scheme of all yeah it is perpetual constant war and and when you look at what is happening with the petrodollar uh one of the reasons that's coming apart it's not just saudi arabia of course but china is going around and brokering peace
Starting point is 01:54:34 between competing arab oil producing countries uh like iran and saudi arabia and so forth so they're putting together a coalition by brokering peace. How do we control everybody? Well, we control everybody by starting a war. We start a war and then we arm people and we get everybody fighting with each other. And I think that's going to be the approach that our government is going to take here. I don't think it'll be a peaceful change. I hope that it is, but I don't think so. Most of the fourth turning have our massive economic unrest, usually accompanied by a horrific war. You know, the previous ones, we had a great depression, world war two prior to that, the
Starting point is 01:55:11 civil war prior to that, the revolutionary war. And they go back 500 years talking about that. I think that it'll be violent because if you look at the way the U S empire operates, it always operates through war and conflict and division and chaos. And so I think that's, what's going to be happening. But, you know, last week when we talked, as you pointed out, we talked about South Korea, big ally, big dependent in a sense of the U.S. saying, well, we're going to move away from the dollar.
Starting point is 01:55:35 This week, we've got Argentina saying the same thing. Now, Argentina could have a big economy, but they've got tremendously corrupt politicians and they have worked their country into debt, into inflation. have a big economy, but they've got a tremendously corrupt politicians and uh, they have worked their country and to debt and to inflation and, uh, but now they are applying for membership into bricks, they are starting to trade with you won the Chinese you want. So the stuff that they buy back and forth with China, they're using the Chinese currency instead of the two countries had been making their
Starting point is 01:56:04 exchanges in dollars. As they point out in this article from RT, that they had the amazing inflation that has happened there, and that's the thing that's on all of our minds as consumers, Tony. They said that in 2014, the official rate was 8 pesos for a dollar, and the unofficial rate was 13. They said 12 to 14 today that has jumped up to the point where it is 222 pesos for the U S dollar in the official thing.
Starting point is 01:56:37 And the black market rate is 500. I mean, this thing has gone up like, you know, 38 fold in just nine years. That's the kind of inflation that they're looking at. So just imagine, you know, a car that is going to be 38 times the price it is today or a home that's going to be third or your food. That's going to be 38 times the price that, you know, in another 10 years. And there's also that spread, that big spread that's there. Jim Rogers would always talk about how when he'd travel, he said you kind of tell the corruption of a country by the spread between the official exchange rate and the black market exchange rate. So that tells us that Argentina is really corrupt. However, it's part of a trend that we're seeing every week.
Starting point is 01:57:18 There's another country or another few countries that are abandoning the dollar and they're running to China. That's what we're seeing everywhere. Yeah, and you talk about the difference between the United States and China. And again, I'm no fan of China. I know what's behind their regime. I know that evil. But they did something really smart with the Belt and Road Initiative. They're going into these countries and saying, hey, let us help you build some infrastructure.
Starting point is 01:57:48 We'll give you a nice loan and we'll come in we'll help build things up uh no regime change we're not going to you know and then that's what we do we come in we're like here here's your here's your cia installed leader and here's the dollar and a coca-cola hope you enjoy it you know we don't really and if you don't like that we'll we'll bomb you that's not what china did they did a different approach and they're gaining power and momentum. And you see, you know, it's kind of like Alexander the Great would do. We go in and conquer and he said, well, you can just, you know, we have a silver standard. You can join and you can have a set of freedoms that we put over whatever you want to call that in the ancient world. But that's what they, he put a blanket of protection. If you just surrender, that's what happens. I mean, that's enticing for a lot of those nations and instead of the sword and we give them the sword that's what we've done i mean it may look nice
Starting point is 01:58:29 but that's what the american empire has done we've we've gone around the world bullying people and uh now with the the world's reserve currency status i mean this is this is the the biggest story of our time you know it's in its link interlinked with cbdc uh because of the technology because of the control system and the great reset and all the things that they want to do with the new world order but uh losing that status is going to be massive historical changes i mean this is i think this is you're right as part of this fourth turning that's culminating in this decade and probably within the next 36 to 60 months really coming to a conclusion yeah yeah it's it's going to happen you know they're 2030 objective and they're
Starting point is 01:59:10 saying well a little bit behind schedule both davos and the un have said we're going to take measures to accelerate this and we need to understand that this next president who gets elected and 2024 is going to take office in 2025 and go to 2029. And so that's going to be, you know, this next person that they pick, because we're not going to pick them. This next person that they pick is going to run this thing. And so if we look at what these, you know, if we look at these characters and the people that are associated with them, we get kind of an idea of how they're going to come at us. But, of course, everything that is real, they devalue. right? We don't want to have, everything is financialized, right? And part of the big advantage of the pain that we go through to get rid of the petrodollar would be that we would get back to manufacturing real stuff instead of this totally over-financialized
Starting point is 02:00:02 everything. Everything is just manipulated through paper money that they create. And now if you look at CBDC as the ultimate control tool, what does it do? It brings in two things, the paper money control, and it brings in digital. So you bring those two things. That's the only thing they tell us to value. It's the only thing that they value, but it really is their control tool and it unifies within the CBDC. We need to respond to this with real stuff. And as you're pointing out, you know, China's going around the belt and road initiative. I think really, whether China's evil, there's no question about it. I mean, I talked about, uh, you know,
Starting point is 02:00:39 had a guy from following gong come on and talking about how they're taking organs out of prisoners on order and that type of stuff. I mean, unbelievable cruelty and evil in China. But what they're following is the pattern, I think, Tony, of what the IMF did. After Vietnam, you had the whiz kid went to McNamara, went to the IMF and ran that. And everybody accused them of putting people into a debt trap that's a big part of what argentina's problem is the massive amounts of money that they owe to the imf that was ostensibly uh not even setting up infrastructure but they
Starting point is 02:01:17 told them to uh you know create a welfare state and things like that that they couldn't pay this back and so that's what is happening. It was a debt trap. And to a large degree, China is doing that as well. They are building infrastructure, but in many cases, their infrastructure fails and they still are on the hook to paying for this stuff. So I think China is laying very, very peacefully at this point in time, laying this foundation and establishing their power. But they're going to be ruthless once they get that power.
Starting point is 02:01:44 It's amazing. Oh, absolutely. They're building a better mousetrap than the IMF did. And I know that you brought up that example from McNamara many times. And again, that's the bait and switch. And debt is always a form of slavery. It's always a form of control. I mean, if you've got somebody in your employee,'ve got somebody under under your thumb and you're uh they owe you uh that's again that's a big that's why bankers we live in a
Starting point is 02:02:10 banker's reality with bankers wars and bankers politics this is really since um you know the world changed drastically after 1913 i don't think that anybody can argue that i mean right after 1913 i mean you had that great little documentary. It's a wonderful lie. They got banned from YouTube. But that's exactly, it was a massive lie. And right after that, we got taken into the first big modern cataclysm, which was World War I. You know, these are bankers' wars, and the bankers have driven all this through debt through control control the money supply yeah you know the answer rothschild talked about that in the 19th century you know i don't
Starting point is 02:02:50 care who sits on the the british throne i'm paraphrasing but uh i care not who sits on the british throne the person who controls the british empire is the person who controls the money supply and i control the british money supply that's right i mean that's a real quote they control the money supply they know that so again you go back and you look at what the IMF did. I think China just modeled that. China is great at modeling. They took our old playbook of economic nationalism. You know, they have massive tariffs like we used to have, and they protected their manufacturing base. And they said, no, we, they push for free trade on others, just like we did, you know, open your markets, but we protect ours. And we, we, course, we dropped our protective tariffs,
Starting point is 02:03:26 and I think that was on purpose. Yeah. But anyway, this is where we're headed. China obviously adopted those two models. They're the emerging superpower, if you want to call it that. But I don't think they'll be the world's reserve currency.
Starting point is 02:03:39 I think it's going to be a bunch of different things, and decentralization's where we're headed. And, of course the the fight that we're going to be up against is is cbdc yeah and i think that's why you're going to have the fractioning of this because it's going to drive people underground uh but you know when you look at you mentioned 1913 yeah the creation of the federal reserve the creation of the income tax reversing the way that the u.s had grown you know thomas jefferson said we don't have any
Starting point is 02:04:03 internal taxes after his first administration, when he begins his second administration, his inaugural address. We don't have any internal taxes. So they changed all that around. They told everybody that, you know, they had to tax us, but then they also told us
Starting point is 02:04:16 that the deficits don't matter. They have to tax us because they don't want us to be able to accumulate wealth. That's why they tax us when they give us the Keynesian economics and the modern monetary theory where they say debts don't matter. But it does matter because the taxes are simply there as a measure of economic control and constriction on us to saw
Starting point is 02:04:36 off the rungs of the economic ladder. A good example of this, I think, Tony, is this last week you had the chief economist for the Bank of England. So the British households and businesses need to accept that they are poor, and they need to stop asking for wage increases because they're pushing prices higher. And we heard the same thing a couple of days later from Jerome Powell. He said, we've got to slow down these wage increases. All of you listening, have you noticed that you've been getting extravagant wages is is that the problem or is it the price of everything is going up and your wages are not going up i mean that's the reality that we all face and yet they put that reality
Starting point is 02:05:13 out there that's really only true of ceo compensation ceo compensation went up a tremendous amount of the last year but the working people are not getting anything other than higher food bills have you seen the ever seen the graph of u.s wages and of course you take u.s median wages in 1970s and you look at the ceo wages and how they spike massively after nafta i mean not not the wages of americans they actually go down or they're flat and then the wages of ceos after we did these international trade agreements just goes off the chart. And you think of the mental gymnastics you have to do, David, to say, well, let's see what's driving inflation. Oh, it's all these people that need all this more money from their wages.
Starting point is 02:05:59 I mean, who? And I guess the financial networks gobble this up. Oh, that's true. We've got to slow down. It's a that's true. We've got to slow down. It's a really hot economy. We've got to tamp it down. That's what's causing inflation, not massive, unprecedented money printing. That's right.
Starting point is 02:06:11 You know, that's never been done before. No one's ever done this. No one's ever said, oh, you know, let's create 80% of all these currency units that have ever been created. And let's see what happens. And then they go, wow, we got some, it's kind of, I think this is transitory. I think this inflation that we've wrecked the dollar, but it's transitory.
Starting point is 02:06:33 And I remember just thinking, this is something, if you just look at the sheer numbers that we've never done before. So it's hard to gauge on history because no one's ever done it. If you look at the chart of debt owned by debt holdings across the world, when the dollar went away from the gold standard, you can go back 500 years. No spike is like it, and we've never seen it. So it's unprecedented amount of debt.
Starting point is 02:06:58 There's going to have to be a reckoning. And it's not going to be because of people's wages that are, you know, driving this or people asking for more. It's because. And it rose 7.7% last year. They did a great job. Yeah. Meanwhile, the workers' pay is dropping, especially compared to inflation. And Jerome Powell and the Bank of England are saying, we're the problem. It's laughable, isn't it? It's absolutely amazing.
Starting point is 02:07:38 It's absolutely laughing. And, of course, in an age of ESG, it's not about profit anymore. And this isn't your grandfather's stock market, folks. They're not looking for profit. They really aren't. And these are the companies that are not even being competitive anymore. It's how much influence do we have connected to the central bank?
Starting point is 02:07:58 That's a bad strategy. Because the central bank, there's going to be a reckoning of that as well. And all these things happening right now, these multinational corporations, I think they bet on the wrong horse. Instead of betting on the consumer and betting on their products, they're betting on environmental social governance. And it's shining through. And the CEO is getting a bump for that. Well, unsustainable.
Starting point is 02:08:21 And they got a big bump. In 2021, their pay increase wasn't 7.7%. Their pay increase was 31%. Did all the rest of you get a 31% pay increase in 2021? That's what's driving inflation. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. But, you know, there is, before we talk about what's going on with Wise Wolf specifically, I got an interesting thing in the email last night from Zelle, because we do do business with Zelle and in the sense that, you know, people can send us if your bank supports it. And some of the biggest banks do. It is something that really is put together by the big banks that are also going
Starting point is 02:08:54 to be doing the Fed now thing. And I think there's a connection between this because I got, you know, there's there's no fee to transfer money on Zelle, and it happens instantly, which is, what was it, cash? I forget the cash. I think it was the guy at the Fed who said, but I can do all that now. We've got a lot of different ways that we can send money digitally. We don't need to have the Federal Reserve set up its own system, which they're calling FedNow, which is phase one of the CBDC that's rolling out, I think, in July. But anyway, they just came out with Zelle, and they said, we've got some new limitations on the amount of money that can be sent in one week.
Starting point is 02:09:36 Now, it's not anything that's going to affect us. It's like $5,000 a week. We should be so fortunate to get $5,000 a week through Zelle. But the thing is that Zelle is starting to put that on. Now, if they're going to put limits on, then what they can do is they can start ramping that down, and they can start offering FedNow without any limits. And because Zelle is being run by some of these biggest banks that are going to be the movers and shakers behind FedNow, basically, I smell a rat when I see something like that. I mean, it still works.
Starting point is 02:10:07 You know, if people want to send us, we've got the information there at the David Knight show. But still, when I looked at that, I thought, hmm, that's kind of suspicious, especially the timing with this first wholesale version of CBDC about to roll out in about a month or so. What do you think? I agree with you on that i'm very skeptical of any the the fed now and is apocalypse now i think i said that on your show yeah uh this
Starting point is 02:10:32 any any of this the centralization of that and how money flows i mean everything is processed through the fed especially thing like wires paper checks things like that all processed through the fed as a clearinghouse um and again, we don't need them. I like the decentralized apps. You know, that was really strange. About a month ago, the founder of Cash App was murdered. I like Cash App. They get a lot of heat.
Starting point is 02:10:57 I see who the establishment criticizes, and I go, oh, I like them. So they must be doing something right. Again, not everything's perfect. But I think people, your audience should be looking at several different ways of how to move currency, you know, and cash apps. And I have no affiliation with cash, but that's one of the ways, you know, we should be open. I mean, I still use I have PayPal connected to Wolfpack. How long will that last? I don't know. I don't try to do anything political on it, but I'm Tony.
Starting point is 02:11:26 I'm pretty sure, you know, I'm not really, there's no degree of separation between myself and Wise Wolf. So eventually that'll, I'm sure it'll be a problem, but right now it's not. So I think that people ought to have many different ways. You know, don't put all your eggs in one basket on being able to to move between apps or uh or programs because they're going to they're piggybacking this into creating a centralized clearinghouse for everything that's what fed now is that's right yeah uh one uh one app to rule us all that's what they're really after and that's what they're doing with speech as well i mean
Starting point is 02:11:59 that you know they got this massive constellation of federal agencies and military industrial complex and Pentagon agencies that are involved in tracking people and pushing back against speech and all that kind of stuff. So now they've just created another supra organization to try to coordinate all of them because it's just too many heads of the Hydra to be able to control. So that's what we're going to see. And you're absolutely right. We've got to have a lot of different, uh, parallel ways to work. And now is the time to start to figure out how these things work. Tell us a little bit about what is happening at wise wolf.gold. Well, as, as I said, the beginning of the, of the interview, I'm here in Denison.
Starting point is 02:12:37 Uh, we've put up our second location, which is wise wolf, gold and silver Denison, which is on the border of Oklahoma and Texas. And, uh, I've got my dog, Beans the Brave. She travels with me now. I go a week here and a week in Branson. And I did that to set up an alternate supply line. We're actually buying product here from the public, which helps me feed the Wolf Pack. Because if you join Wolf Pack, it's automatic.
Starting point is 02:13:00 I guarantee shipments. I've got to make sure I back up my word. So we've been expanding that. And of course, it's close to the trading floor in Dallas if I need to make a bigger purchase or meet with people. So it's a lot of me traveling now. I think that's going to define gold and silver brokers and dealers in the future. Can you get supply? And I just, I don't want, I didn't want to get comfortable and say, well, look, I'm doing okay. I can get supply from these wholesalers. I needed to create my own.
Starting point is 02:13:29 You know, we use several different options to get people gold and silver. So it's not just wholesalers, but it's, I buy from the public and individuals. So this has been a good thing. We've got a great shop here. It's a good culture. It's the longest main street in Texas. You got to come check it out. Doc Holliday had a dentist office here. I think i said that before uh dwight asinauer
Starting point is 02:13:49 was born that's where you get the term flying saucer too as a dentist in texas 1878 yeah there was a farmer in denison so you saw a flying saucer uh that's where you get that nomenclature um but you can come down and see uh let's see if i can get beans on camera we'll see if we can get she's been hanging out, drove from Branson. There's Beans. Yeah, you come see Beans, come see us, and we had a David Knight listener. How old is Beans?
Starting point is 02:14:14 She's six. She's about six years old. Oh, it looks like a puppy. Looks like a young puppy. Yeah, well, she's a Chiweenie. She was... It's a mix between a Chihuahua. She was we had. Yes, it's a mix between a Chihuahua and a dachshund. At least that's what I think she is.
Starting point is 02:14:30 We adopted her in San Antonio. She she was on the streets for a couple of years. And anyway, now she's not. And she travels with me all over the place. And everybody on my show knows that Beans the Brave. So you got to come down and see Beans. And we had a David Knight listener here yesterday. And everybody on my show knows Beans the Brave. So you've got to come down and see Beans. And we had a David Knight listener here yesterday,
Starting point is 02:14:50 somebody that I've been working with for over a year. And they're going to do something. It looks like they're going to buy some land or something to convert some of their holdings. And I was helping with that. But, yeah, davidknight.gold, folks, we can support the show. Happy to sponsor this magnificent program. And you mentioned Goldbacks, and I'll end end with this you mentioned the goldbacks from the states promised everybody who joined wolfpack like what three interviews ago you would get goldbacks all
Starting point is 02:15:14 your names have been listed i promise i i didn't have kenzie for the last 10 days yeah i want to ask you about kenzie how how was the tragedy in her family the two-year-old was it niece i think that it was her niece yeah yes sir yeah it's it was just really hard she had to step in and and she has been you know the the strong one in the family you know she's um she's only 26 but that was something that as a tragedy happened at her at her mother's and um at their their house and so um she just really stepped up and i'm really proud of her it's just a lot to take take on and you know you lose a child like that and you know it's just a a freak accident uh and it reminds us all to to to hug on our loved ones more you know to to to understand this is all fragile it's a blessing to be able to to get up every day and just uh
Starting point is 02:16:04 just have have a family that you can care for and um it really brings home the point you know we talk about money we talk about gold and silver all that stuff you there's no amount of anything can can assuage that sort of grief yes um so and that really drives home what's important yes it really does it really was tragic story really was a tragic story. And I'm so sorry to hear that. People keep Kinsey and the family that it was her, was it sister or brother family? Her sister's daughter.
Starting point is 02:16:35 Sister's daughter. Keep them in your prayers. They really could use your prayers. It was such a tragic thing to have a two years old. Everybody used to say the terrible twos, but our kids, our kids, when they were two years old, uh, they were really amazing. You know, we, we didn't institutionalize them or anything. And, and at two years old, they started to develop their own personality and interact with us. And so that just makes it all the more tragic. It's, it's really is a tragedy. Well, uh, don't want to end on a real negative note, but we, you know,
Starting point is 02:17:03 do, uh, keep them in your prayers and they do have a, um, uh, a go fund me, I think is it. That, um, yes, sir. Yeah. You can go to a fringe underscore news or Twitter. I think that's still pinned up there. Uh, if you'd like to donate, help the family. I just said that that kind of shocked to have to pay the medical bills and then
Starting point is 02:17:22 also have to bury your child and pay for those expenses while you're trying to figure out. I mean, I know they want to move away from the house, which is going to be another experience. I can't get out of there because the incident happened there. So yeah, if you can, that would be wonderful. She's gotten a big outpour of support. So we appreciate everybody that's done that. That's good. Well, it's good to hear from you. And as you pointed out, you know, we talk about what is happening with politics. We talk about what is happening with money. But that is the bigger perspective. And every day that goes by, we should treasure that time that we have.
Starting point is 02:17:57 Tomorrow was not promised. Today is not promised to any of us. Any of us could die before the end of the day. So we need to keep our relationships tight and close with people and with god thank you so much tony for coming on i really do appreciate how you support the program thank you appreciate it thank you david all right folks we're going to take a quick break when we come back i'm going to talk to you about what's going on with twitter with our account and it's kind of interesting we'll have to see what's going to move forward
Starting point is 02:18:23 it's kind of in a i don't know if people are able to see the broadcast today or if it's been marked as sensitive. You should, we'll check that during the break. Maybe we'll be right back. You're listening to The David Knight Show. All right, welcome back. I said I'd be talking about what's happening with Twitter. It was kind of strange yesterday. We had a listener send it to us. That was the first time I saw it and I tweeted it out. Um, and what it, what they did yesterday to the show that we broadcast live on Twitter and have been doing for many years.
Starting point is 02:19:55 I said the following media includes potentially sensitive content. So you can click on the button there. If you aren't afraid to go see that really sensitive content that I put out, you could click on the button or you could change the settings so that they don't warn you about that. But I also, uh, got this from them. Uh, we put a warning on this tweet because it might have sensitive content. Do you want to appeal this warning?
Starting point is 02:20:22 Well, when I first tweeted out what was sent to me before I saw the thing towards me about that tweet, I said, so today Twitter labeled my show as potentially sensitive content. See the highlighted screenshot required people to acknowledge the risk that they want to take in terms of viewing my show today. I talked about big tech censorship, AI con games, transgender grooming E verify as a path to CBDC, digital slavery, bioweapon lab safety in the U S I wonder what it was that they took exception to. And I wonder who took exception to this. And I said, there seems to be new censorship features coming all the time at twitter but then there really is a reason for it as i saw this and i saw that you know peel this warning and so forth uh here's um and um what i decided i would do you know i put out a tweet a few weeks ago
Starting point is 02:21:20 and i said it hasn't gotten any better for me. If anything, it's the same or worse. You had MRCTV or GuardWorks, they did a comparison. Somebody looks at how many people had trouble with Twitter and how many people were penalized or banned or whatever, and it actually went up a bit over the last year. And the penalties were more severe when they applied penalties to people. But before I saw that report from MRC TV, just based on my own personal stuff, I had put up a tweet on Twitter, and I said, well, to me,
Starting point is 02:21:57 I don't see that this quote-unquote free speech platform has gotten any better. To me, it seems like it is as bad or even worse than it was before. But I really wasn't doing much in terms of content. I was just basically posting up the video, the full video that they've now slapped a label, warning label on. Travis was looking at it. He said he doesn't think it's on there today unless it shows up later. We don't see it when we look at it.
Starting point is 02:22:25 But, you know, that was a new step that they had taken, but I thought, well, maybe let me just try something. You know, it used to be, um, that, uh, Twitter was free, but now, you know, Neil on Musk wants people to pay $8 a month and you get the blue check thing. So maybe if, um, you you know free speech is not free if you got to pay eight dollars for it maybe you know they'll leave me alone maybe they'll take off the shadow banning and i also thought they don't like for me to put in links to other platforms you know typically we'll put up the full show we'll send links to it we'll put up the podcast
Starting point is 02:23:00 we'll put links to it and we do that on. We do it on gab and also put up some cuts. So take out two or three things each day from the show. Uh, maybe, you know, anywhere from five to 10, five to 15 minutes or something like that. And, uh, we'll put those cuts up. So I thought, well, maybe it would be better if I just posted the five or 10 minute clip. Well, that's one of the things, if you pay them the $8, you can put up a clip. I think it's like an hour long. I'm not going to put up another hour long video, but you know, I could put up a, at least be able to put up an interview if I want to, instead of linking to the interview, because I usually separate out the interviews as well. And I could put up the two or three clips that we do on a basis and just directly post them to YouTube. So I thought maybe
Starting point is 02:23:42 that would be better. I get to put up, if you get the blue check mark, you pay them the $8 a month, you get to post more characters there and you get to highlight them with boldface and italics and some other things like that. So I thought, all right, we'll give it a try. $8 is not a lot of money. And so I did that and the result was it put my account under review. So I paid him eight dollars and what i get is detailed scrutiny which by the way is one of the reasons why maybe the reason why i skated through all this stuff for all these years i never applied for blue check mark status ever even when i had a lot of engagement i mean there's still technically um 133,000 plus people following me.
Starting point is 02:24:25 So I never applied for blue checkmark status because I didn't want to get the account reviewed. And I didn't really think about that being done with the new rules and the new owners that they would review the account. So they started reviewing the account. The first thing they did was to market as sensitive stuff. So I said, I guess I made a mistake by purchasing the blue checkmark
Starting point is 02:24:47 so I could upload longer videos and include longer highlighted texts. The free speech platform put my account in review for purchasing blue, and I guess this is the result. Is this any way to run a business, Elon? And I tweeted that at him. Of course, no response. And then when I clicked on the thing, you know, it said, if you want to appeal this warning. So I clicked on that and I
Starting point is 02:25:14 said, no, there's nothing in here that is offensive. And then they have a place where you can put a statement and says, tell us more about your appeal. And I said, this is a Christian political show. Do you have a problem with that? That's my appeal. And I guess they do have a problem with it. Somebody there has a problem with it. We know the Biden administration has so many problems with so many people and so much information that they don't like out there. Any information that they don't like, they label it as disinformation or misinformation. I say, no, this is the information that they want you to miss.
Starting point is 02:25:50 And these are the people that they want to dis, uh, the, and to cancel, but they have now created a new disinformation office as if they didn't have enough of them, you gotta have more and more layers. And, uh, and again, if you look at their org chart of all the different censorship organizations and partnerships that they have with NGOs and private companies to censor and control speech, they do have to have some overriding bureaucracy to try to organize that. And they are stepping this stuff up just as the EU is stepping up its new rules in a month or so. And that was another reason I thought it'd be interesting to go in and see what happens. I thought it'd be interesting to see if the shadow banning and the censorship is there simply because you don't pay.
Starting point is 02:26:35 And, you know, within another month or so, would I see, you know, would it see after put in the paid the $8 a month, would I see something improve a little bit and then see it drop down again as the EU rules kick in. But we'll have to wait and see about that. Anyway, the Biden administration is elevating disinformation to a new security threat level.
Starting point is 02:26:57 So zero hedge article, a new government and non-governmental offices dedicated to fighting foreign disinformation are cropping up everywhere. And so they had to create, the director of national intelligence has created a new office, the Foreign Malign Influence Center, the FMIC. Well, it's not really foreign influence that they're worried about. It's the federals who want to influence people. And it's the federals who are influencing people in a malign way. So really it is the FMIC, but just substitute federal malign influence center because it's directed at Americans.
Starting point is 02:27:41 We know that. This is the big dodge that they use with FISA, right? Oh, well, we're not allowed to spy on Americans, even though that's what the CIA and the NSA were doing from their initial creation. That's why you had the church committee hearings and why you had the Pike committee hearings in the House. And at the end of that, they didn't prohibit them from assassinating people, foreign or domestic. They instead prohibited them from spying on people. They said, you're not going to spy on people, even foreign citizens in America. You will spy only on foreign citizens in foreign countries.
Starting point is 02:28:20 If you want an exception to that, you have to, if you want to spy on a foreign citizen in America, for example, you have to come before a court that we set up. But it's not a real court. It's a rubber stamp process. It's a star chamber process. It's one judge that they go before. And that judge can tell them, as Rand Paul pointed out, oh, yeah, here's a search warrant for Mr. and Mrs. Verizon. You can listen to all the phone calls from everybody, everywhere. We don't have to have a particular reason for it.
Starting point is 02:28:50 But now they have created this new agency and testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee. Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines, for the first time, mentioned the creation of the Foreign Malign Influence Center. He said it encompasses our election threat work, essentially looking at foreign influence and interference in elections, but it also deals with disinformation more generally, more domestically, in other words. And understand that all this stuff about Russia, Russia, Russia, the Russian collusion, all the rest of that stuff,
Starting point is 02:29:31 that really was a dodge for them to come after their political enemies. You're just like, oh, you're racist. You're Russian. You are hateful, right? All these different labels that they throw at everybody. It's just an excuse. But they've come out of the closet with this. This has always been there.
Starting point is 02:29:45 This has always, as I've said many times, it was the purpose for which they created the Internet, and it was the purpose for which they created social media. The Internet was a psychological tool. J.C.R. Licklider working for DARPA back in the 1960s, it was a psychological tool from the very beginning to manipulate public opinion. And, of course, it doesn't just manipulate public opinion like the paper press or the radio press or the TV press,
Starting point is 02:30:12 and they all got more visceral as the technology advanced. But what the internet allows them to do is it allows them, especially with social media, to put out their propaganda and then to look at how people are responding to it. Are they buying it? What parts of it are they buying? And they can fine-tune the message. What it did was it closed the feedback loop on all of this stuff,
Starting point is 02:30:34 which is very important for them. And so, of course, they've been involved in manipulating public opinion and monitoring public opinion from the very beginning. But now they are coming out of the closet about it openly admitting, uh, the FMIC is being authorized to monitor public opinion within the United States, quote unquote, that's in their mission statement. They're there now to monitor public opinion. And that's what it was always for. And that's why you had, uh,
Starting point is 02:31:03 the venture capital firms that were funding the people who were going to compete, filled with these people from the intelligence community. And you had the CIA actually create its own venture capital firm. Where's the constitutional authority for that? Right? I mean, of course, you know, as long as you got the CIA there, you don't have a constitution. What we've been doing is effectively trying to support the Global Engagement Center and others throughout the U.S. government and helping them to understand what are the plans and the intentions and the key actors of China, Russia, and Iran. That's not who they're focused on. We know who their enemy is.
Starting point is 02:31:41 They has met the enemy, and they is us, right? This is a whole of government approach, they said. And of course, that's the type of thing that you see with CBDC, a whole of government approach, where Biden last March set out to every one of the bureaucracies, all of them operate, of course, under the executive branch. And he told all of them to report back to him in six months in one of four areas. How are we going to completely restructure the financial system how are we going to reinforce it all you law enforcement people uh some techno who you know if you're going to help to coordinate the technology that was the third area and the fourth area was climate change a whole of government
Starting point is 02:32:18 approach and that is what they're trying to do with speech as well. They said, even though its name starts with foreign, the FMIC's congressionally determined objective includes protecting American public opinion. They're here to protect public opinion. They're here to protect public opinion from any ideas that they don't want you to hear. Journalism participants in the Aspen Institute. Last week, I talked to a journalist who was there. We talked about the Aspen Institute and what's going on in Aspen, Colorado, and how corrupt and elitist that whole place is. Well, at the Aspen Institute, just before the 2020 election, journalism participants intended to prevent the spread of hack and dump disinformation from foreign governments were explicitly told that their suspects were foreign or other adversarial entities. Okay, well, what is the other part, right? If it's foreign, foreign and others.
Starting point is 02:33:27 Well, domestic. There isn't any foreign is everything that's not domestic. So if it's foreign and other, that means the way you should read this is that their suspects are foreign or domestic adversarial entities. These are the people, by the way, who are the enemies of the Constitution, foreign or domestic adversarial entities. These are the people, by the way, who are the enemies of the Constitution, foreign and domestic. The Global Engagement Center, that's a foreign enemy of the Constitution
Starting point is 02:33:54 and the American people. The FMIC is a domestic enemy of the American people. Or you could just say they're the other enemy. The domestic enemy. The other enemy other than foreign. So, of course, that means domestic sources. I guess they think you can't figure that out, right? So funny that you would think that. It's the basic rhetorical trick of the censorship age.
Starting point is 02:34:27 You raise a fuss about a foreign threat. You use it as a battering ram to get everyone from Congress to the tech companies to submit to increased regulation and surveillance. That's exactly it. That was written by Matt Taibbi. He nailed it. The basic rhetorical trick of the censorship age, a foreign threat, we use that to run this through so that we can, it says,
Starting point is 02:34:52 then you slowly adjust your aim to domestic targets. That's what it is. So we should understand that the foreign malign influence center is really the federal malign influence center. It is the feds trying to influence us in a malign way. Pull up this picture, Travis. The censorship industrial complex, top 50 organizations to know. This is why they've got to have some overreaching bureaucracy,
Starting point is 02:35:20 because they have created so many of them. This is just the top 50. So many of them in this metastasizing cancer that they have to have an oversight agency to coordinate them. And, yeah, pull it down. There's a graph there somewhere. Maybe that's not it. Anyway, well, don't worry about it.
Starting point is 02:35:43 This is an article that's not it anyway well don't worry about it uh this is uh an article that's on zero hedge it's actually from technofog and several others via racket news and they have 90 pages there they are there we are okay good 90 pages of organizations scroll in and blow that up a little bit because that's pretty hard to see, uh, the censorship industrial network. They put that together and they labeled it. You can see Twitter and Google and Facebook and they're up in the upper right-hand corner, but there's a lot of others that you may not have heard about. If you want to read about it again, a racket news, and you can find it on, um,
Starting point is 02:36:20 zero hedge, they've got the whole 90 some odd page order or article i should say that is there that you can go through it entity by entity if you want to do a deep dive but the cyber space infrastructure security agency cisa remember it was originally cispa well they took out that P after trying to put that in several times. They were opposed by Aaron Schwartz. We were told that he committed suicide and so forth. I never believed it because this is a guy who was a fighter. He wasn't worried about it. As a matter of fact, after he committed suicide, the woman who was the federal attorney coming after him,
Starting point is 02:37:01 even when the local people there at Harvard didn't want to even come after him and said no crime had been committed. She came after him, Carmine Ortiz, and people started pointing the finger at her and saying, you're trying to put him in jail. You drove him to suicide. And her husband put out a tweet and said, no, she was only coming after him for 30 months. And she had dropped it down. And then he removed that tweet. Uh, but, um, he wouldn't have been deterred about that.
Starting point is 02:37:33 He had engaged them many times, fought them on SOPA, ACTA, PIPA, CISPA, several times, all the rest of these things, but they finally got it through. After he died, they called it CISA. The P was there because they wanted to protect the deputized state companies that you saw in that org chart there. They wanted to protect them from any lawsuits. You know, they've always maintained the fiction. Going back to the creation of the CIA and the NSA,
Starting point is 02:37:58 and they used the phone company, they used AT&T, and said, well, you know, these people have decided, even though they gave them monopoly control of the phone system, they've decided that in order to use phones, that, you know, they're going to deal with you as a business. And so you own that information and you can turn it over to us. And we don't need to have a search warrant. If you want to turn that information over to us,
Starting point is 02:38:20 do you want to turn that information over to us and keep your monopoly? Of course you do. Public private partnership. And so want to turn that information over to us and keep your monopoly? Of course you do. Public-private partnership. And so they willingly turn the information over. And people say, wait a minute, you should still have a search warrant. And so they took it before the court. The court said, no, they don't. They own the information. They can turn it over. And so they've been operating that way with the deputized state, with the social media companies and many others. And they wanted to make sure that nobody was going to be able to sue them, you know, because now that we've changed things significantly with the digital stuff, maybe there might be a new interpretation of that from a new Supreme Court.
Starting point is 02:38:55 So we want to make sure that we shut that down. That was what CISA was about, CISPA. They took out the P so people wouldn't see that. But CISA was asked for help flagging any people talking about Dominion or election disinformation on Twitter. They were there to debunk Project Veritas videos. See, I thought that the cybersecurity people were there to protect our infrastructure against foreign threats no that's how they got the approval that's their public face but what they were there to do was not to protect us from foreign threats to our infrastructure but to become a domestic threat themselves and to spy on people for political purposes last week week, America First Legal, AFL, by the way, they've positioned themselves as a conservative
Starting point is 02:39:48 alternative to the Marxist AFL-CIO. America First Legal, AFL, filed a class action lawsuit against entities and individuals involved in the Virality Project, an election integrity partnership. They did the lawsuit on behalf of Gateway Pundit founder Jim Hoff and another person, Jill Hines, who is director of the Health Freedom Louisiana. And they had been targets of CISA espionage, if you will. The lawsuit alleged that the defendants worked with DHS's Cybersecurity Infrastructure Security Administration, CISA, to influence the presidential election. Isn't that interesting?
Starting point is 02:40:31 Exactly the opposite of what Steve Pchenik was telling everybody. You know, he said, hey, there's a sting. And how did we get these blockchain watermarks? Well, President Trump used CISA to put this stuff out. I mean, he actually pulled in. All of it was total nonsense. The ballots are state-controlled. There isn't any blockchain watermark that they're going to put on anything
Starting point is 02:40:50 to specifically identify each and every ballot and tie it to somebody. There's absolutely no way any of that stuff was true. But, of course, it's interesting, I think, that the CIA shill, Steve Pachinik, would pull in CISA. And, of course, right out of the gate, you had the guy who was director of CISA pouring cold water on it. Now we find out that they were involved even before the election, but not in the way that Steve Pchenik and Infowars are saying.
Starting point is 02:41:15 They were involved in rigging the election in the other way. I find that interesting. The documents obtained showed that Brian Scully, head of CISA's task force about foreign influence, and his team communicated with third parties about government-related work, and they did it in a self-deleting feature enabled on Signal. Now, wasn't it just this last week when we saw the convictions of these proud boys, Joe Biggs and others? You had the juror come back and say, well, you know, the thing that made me think that they're guilty is the fact that they were communicating with
Starting point is 02:41:58 each other on secure channels and that they deleted some of those communications and the government couldn't get those communications. So they were obviously guilty. Guilty of what? You don't know what they deleted. And so what they have found as part of discovery in this lawsuit from, again, the AFL, and that's the America First Legal, what they found as part of, is that there were emails and some messages that were not deleted from the head of CISA's task force to other companies and people that they were conspiring with to spy on the American people, not to protect us from foreign influence, but to spy on Americans.
Starting point is 02:42:43 And they were talking about how we need to get over into Signal so that we can turn on this deletion of stuff. They were conspiring to hide their information. Now, that in and of itself is potentially a violation of the Federal Records Act. Because even though as an individual citizen and as Proud Boys, there is no law saying that you can't delete your messages, there is a law saying that government agencies cannot delete their messages, especially in this particular case. What are they trying to hide? of seditious conspiracy, says the juror, simply because they had messages that were secure and subsequently deleted.
Starting point is 02:43:28 If that is indication of seditious conspiracy, isn't this indication of seditious conspiracy on the part of CISA doing this, in addition to a violation of the Federal Records Act? Well, don't hold your breath about anybody getting charged with this, especially not getting 20-year jail sentences or anything like that. That's not going to happen, of course. When James Clapper lied under oath to the American people
Starting point is 02:43:56 about spying on the American people, there wasn't a single senator or congressman who called for him to be impeached over perjury. Right? Nobody wanted him charged with a perjury as a criminal charge or impeached from his office or anything else. They all ignored it. But the five-year statute of limitations go by. And this will be ignored as well.
Starting point is 02:44:21 But I'm telling you that they are guilty. If anybody is guilty of seditious conspiracy, simply on the fact that they have secured communication and then deleted it, well, that would be CISA. In one of the emails, he said, apologies for the delay in getting these, and he had names and phone numbers to you, but we've been working on some legal and records management issues to get access to Signal so they could do it securely.
Starting point is 02:44:48 An email from Scully to then Twitter executive, Yol Roth. That's LGBT censor who was there on Twitter. Confirmed that they were communicating outside of official channels. Scully wrote, we're going to email only. We'll only report critical items from outside email chains, and we'll continue to monitor the chat, though, so we can talk off the record here. So they established protocols to do what they call pre-bunking. What is pre-bunking?
Starting point is 02:45:20 Well, you know, debunking is somebody says something, you say, that's not true. And here's why it's not true. I'm going to debunk that information. They decided that they would squelch any conversation that touched on certain points. Pre-bunk it. You know, we will preemptively flush it down the memory hole before anybody is even able to see it. And so while all of this is happening, the Department of Homeland Security has been doing an experiment with a game-like program to have their agents learn how to censor people. And you will not believe how they are the kinds of enemies that they're defining.
Starting point is 02:46:08 Just in case you think this is not domestic, just in case you think this is not targeted towards their political enemies, they created a game-like program whose stated goal is to make sure that people make the right real-life decisions, especially in terms of what is known as domestic terrorism. What kind of people are they looking at to be able to see domestic terrorism and to recognize signs of radicalization, as they put it? They said the obvious political ideological slant as to who these radicalized
Starting point is 02:46:41 domestic terrorists are, of course, this is coming from Reclaim the Net. Excellent article. As expected to be, they name people with values that are typically associated with conservatives. America First Legal, again, found this. They've come into possession of internal DHS documents because of this discovery, not only finding out the information about CISA,
Starting point is 02:47:04 but also finding out about this about CISA, but also finding out about this game that they're playing, right? And again, if you want to go back and look at all the pandemic games that they did, going back to Dark Winter and everything, Germ Games, the chapter that RFK Jr. put in his Fauci book, that's a great way to determine, right? Because it is a gaming, a war gaming, a practice approach. And that is what this is. So what they did is they came up with different radicalization scenarios,
Starting point is 02:47:29 different fictional characters that had certain attributes that should be a warning sign to our future and current Stasi's in training, right? We're training these people to be Stasi, East German secret police.
Starting point is 02:47:42 So the new Stasi, the game is called Choose Your Own Adventure. It proposes five story branches. Each of them have three video scenes. Screenshots of the documents were obtained by the AFL as part of their discovery. Some of the radicalization scenarios presented in the proposal, fictitious characters.
Starting point is 02:48:04 One of them is an online gamer. They say this online gamer is using mean and degrading language. So that means that he's on the path to being a domestic terrorist, you understand, according to DHS, and they're training games. Also, another one is a budding conspiracy theorist. Another one is a pro-life activist. Another one is a stepfather who is also anti-government, anti-authority. Well, there you go. These are the people who are their enemies. Domestic terrorists, they call them. This project was approved for $75,000 a day they were going to spend on this project.
Starting point is 02:48:50 I don't know for how many days they were going to run it, plus $25,000 labor. But they said, what are we trying to achieve and why? Well, one of the consistent themes our team has heard is that family and community will be the people that will recognize the signs of radicalization. So to that extent, our photo shoot will be family first, and it'll show everyday people
Starting point is 02:49:14 doing everyday tasks. In other words, sitting around a table on the phones, having dinner to emphasize the point that domestic terrorism can happen to anyone, but that anyone can also help prevent it. See something, say something. And oh, by the way, the enemy of the state may be one of your family members, and you better be ready to turn them in. Setting family members against each other, isn't it?
Starting point is 02:49:40 And so as you look at these scenarios, one person that they have pulled out, here's a profile. They, they show pictures of these people and, um, uh, they talk about, um, uh, what the types of things that would, uh, radicalize them. Uh, this woman said, uh, branch number five, this particular scenario, an old high school friend who was also a budding conspiracy theorist. So this is an old high school friend of yours on Facebook, right? They're now in their mid-30s.
Starting point is 02:50:14 She's divorced. But, you know, these high school friends that she knew 20 years ago, they noticed that she's starting to say some conspiracy theorist types of things. So you should report her, right? This is Courtney. She's a divorced mother of two in her late 30s. Her children have always been her world. But after moving into a new city, she's made a new group of friends and has joined volunteer groups for underprivileged youth.
Starting point is 02:50:41 She's now become fixated, however, on conspiracy theories. Again, a conspiracy theory is anything that challenges or tries to debunk the government narrative. She's now become fixated on conspiracy theories regarding government connections to child abuse and trafficking. We know the government would never do that, right? I like this one. A middle-aged pro-life advocate. This person is on the road to radicalization. Radicalization suspect. Anne, mid-40s. And then there are bystanders who are around there as part of this game. You know, the characters that are around there. A preacher, a bakery employee, and a primary care doctor. Visually, we see a portrait of our protagonist, Anne,
Starting point is 02:51:30 along with a stock footage that you would associate with a suburban mom, laundry, minivan, et cetera. Sound effects will help to build Jamie's environment. That's her name, fictional character. And so anyway, they say, this woman is a resident of Elkville in rural America. She's always been religious, but since the death of her mother, she's become increasingly devout. Oh, sounds suspicious to me. She's a regular in the small town community, active in several church groups.
Starting point is 02:52:04 While she's always been protective of her four kids, she's become increasingly more concerned about the welfare of other children, including the unborn. These are the people, this is the government defining their enemy. This is somebody who, after the death of her mother, has become more tied in to a prayer group and discussion, who has been active in several church groups, who has now become a pro-life advocate. She's a dangerous terrorist.
Starting point is 02:52:34 This government of ours, this malign influence, federal malign influencers, think that people like that are their enemy. That people like that have to, what are they going to do? Rester? Persecutor? Whatever. I mean, you go back and you look at that story we had last week. There was a long article on LifeSite News about, remember there was a couple of candles
Starting point is 02:52:59 in a Catholic hospital. And I showed you the pictures of the candles at the time, and they are on a metal pedestal. It's a teeny little flame on a candle. And so it's completely enclosed except on the front. It's even got a little metal cap over the top of it. And the Biden administration wanted to take away all the Medicare and Medicaid money from this Catholic hospital because they said it was a fire hazard, and they had to get rid of that.
Starting point is 02:53:33 Could not have that. They said, this isn't a fire hazard. They said it's an open flame. It's not anywhere close to anything like oxygen tanks or anything. It's in a separate area. It's really enclosed. If you're really concerned, we could put tile underneath it or something like that, but it is not a, um, a fire hazard by any means.
Starting point is 02:53:53 And, uh, yet, you know, the reality is, is that, um, they won't leave that alone, right? And life site news went to a lot of, lot of detail about the Catholic theology, about why candles are important to them. The theology doesn't matter. They think it's important to them, it's important. It's part of their religion, leave them alone. But he also pointed out this underscores the danger
Starting point is 02:54:19 of taking money from the federal government, because if you take money from them in any way, shape, or form, then they're going to use that to control you. And of course, that's exactly what they were trying to do. And they went on to say that, this writer went on to say, he said the chilling reason why Biden targeted a Catholic hospital, he said it really is about control, but he said it was also about a test to see what people would put up with.
Starting point is 02:54:50 And he said, by the way, he says, if anybody thinks that conservative news is ignored, alternative blogs and news reports are ignored, he said, think again. A few days of this outrage, within a few days of this outrage being published the administration reversed its course and the order was withdrawn nothing was reported about this in mainstream media life site news had it a few other people reported it and somehow changed
Starting point is 02:55:19 and so perhaps we are having an effect even even though, um, you know, this is a sensitive content that you're not supposed to watch. Um, you know, these little pinpricks though, that the Biden administration doing are merely testing the water, show the picture of what that thing looks like. Travis, there you go. So you look at that. I mean, that's pretty much enclosed. It's crazy that they would pretend that that was a fire hazard.
Starting point is 02:55:43 It's not a fire hazard. Biden is Catholic. He knows how important the candles are to their religion. And he wants to take that out because they're Marxist authoritarians, totalitarian. Anyway, he said the real lesson here that's likely lost, not only on the hospital but on the catholic church he said that unless and until federal funding is refused religious freedom will erode and that's why when we look at these bills same thing is happening with education that's why the most hopeful thing i've seen is that in tennessee and in another state there's been a couple of bills introduced to say we've got to start weaning ourselves off of federal money for education we got to do it
Starting point is 02:56:31 gradually but we got to get off of this addiction to federal money because they're going to control education they're going to control the hospitals are going to control churches if the churches take their money and you know this is a cath Catholic hospital that's taking Medicare, Medicaid processing. And as long as they do that, they're going to control you. So he says, so where's the revenue going to come from? He said, well, you used to not have any problem finding it. There are days of robust Christianity. As a matter of fact, if you go back in history and you look at it,
Starting point is 02:57:02 the schools were being built by Christian churches. The hospitals were being built by Christian churches. There were volunteer organizations like the Red Cross that were voluntarily supported by the community. You know, we used to be able to do stuff like that. We used to, at the beginning of the 19th century early 1800s when alexis de tocqueville came to look at america he talked about democracy in america he said look if they see a need if they need a library if they need a school if they need a hospital or whatever they'll put
Starting point is 02:57:35 together a voluntary organization many times the church was involved in that but the community would come together and they would work together to build this in America. He said that's one of the key things about America. He contrasted it with his socialist France. He said in France, everybody demands that the government do it. But in America, the community does it. And we'll become, and we'll remain, because we already are, the slaves and the serfs of an all-powerful central government unless and until we take back these things and do them on our own and so when we look at what is um you know the free speech issue uh just to finish
Starting point is 02:58:16 up you know we lost how many lives in vietnam right fighting the communists because it was a domino theory they were going to take over vietnam and then it was going to be another one to fall to the communists and another one to fall the communists and we didn't want to live under the communists well what is vietnam like today vietnam is communist and vietnam has got a thriving economy that based on global corporations that are going there and even though their wages are very low to the Vietnamese, their economy has picked up from that standpoint. And so what you see in Vietnam is something that looks very much like
Starting point is 02:58:54 the fascist economic system that the communist Chinese have. And yet it's not communist China. You know, the Chinese are still fighting with the Vietnamese, as they have for over 1,000 years. When Robert McNamara went back to Vietnam, one of the guys that had been his counterpart banged his fist on the table and said, what is this about the domino theory? We were fighting the Chinese for our independence for 1,000 years.
Starting point is 02:59:21 We weren't part of a Chinese conspiracy. That was the conspiracy theory that robert mcnamara was putting out there to create continue the vietnam war so they wanted to remain autonomous and they're both very nationalistic and they both have a merger of corporations and governments and government control of the corporations, which is fascist. So the nationalism is fascist. The economic structure is fascist, but we refer to them as communists because it's this weird mixture of it. But Vietnam is that way just like China.
Starting point is 02:59:55 Well, what does communist Vietnam want to do? They want to force local and foreign social media users to register their identity just like us just like europe where the big push is to take away any anonymous use on the internet and to put everybody under their thumb to follow everything that's happening the bbc said vietnamese authorities intend to monitor and possibly block anonymous accounts once these new restrictions go into effect. Think about how the noose is tightening on free speech in 2023. Europe is going to be kicking in brand new rules. What is it?
Starting point is 03:00:37 In July, I think it is. And threatening to take 10% of Twitter's revenue if Elon Musk doesn't bow and scrape to them. And of course, he is bowing and scraping to them, literally bowing and scraping to this guy, Theron Berry, where a year ago when they were still putting the purchase together, he comes in and says, we've got some new censorship rules and you will obey them. Yes, yes, I will, I will. Literally bowing to him is very cringy. And so, of course course they all will,
Starting point is 03:01:10 because this is a system of totalitarianism modeled after communism. That's what is, you know, the, the control of speech and the totalitarian control of ideas. That's the communist aspect. Economically, they're fascist. Their hyper-nationalism is fascist,
Starting point is 03:01:21 but their control, their authoritarian control of speech and of thought that they seek to have, that is communist. Last year, social media platforms were required to take down news that was deemed as fake within 24 hours in Vietnam, rather than previously mandated 48 hours. This is the way they always run it. They began with one aspect of it and then they accelerated in the UK, not just in Europe, you know, where they're rolling out this new stuff. But in the UK,
Starting point is 03:01:51 the government is offering 600,000 pounds to contractors who will do social media surveillance of quote misinformation narratives, just like the United States. and why is that a surprise you know the old british empire has been replaced in my opinion by this empire of spies that they call five eyes if you take a look at it it's uh all especially you know we look at the coronation of um of charles oh yeah you know know, technically Charles is still king of these other areas, you know, Australia, New Zealand, I think Canada as well, they go there for ceremonial purposes. So the UK, Canada,
Starting point is 03:02:35 New Zealand, Australia, that's five eyes when you throw in the United States. So the United States joins with that. What we have is a reconstituted British Empire that includes the United States. That's these spies who rule us, the Five Eyes who rule us. They're all fixed on controlling narratives. And they're doing this, they're going to offer a bounty of 600,000 pounds from the UK government as they're bankrupting the citizens. They don't care that things are getting increasingly difficult for the UK citizens. They don't care about inflation.
Starting point is 03:03:14 They don't care about the cost of food, the cost of energy. And this is what we're going to see in our country as well. As we spiral down into this agenda, they will, even as people are struggling to make ends meet, they're putting out fantastic bounties to spy on each other, just as they saw in East Germany. They didn't care that the economy was horrible. Well, that's it for today. Tomorrow, we will be having a best of. We'll have a lot of great interviews that we've had over the last few weeks. We put them together. Last week we were going to take time off for my birthday and my son's birthday.
Starting point is 03:03:50 Also want to see our aunt who just turned 98. And so we will be gone tomorrow and we'll be back live on Monday. But we'll have a great best of show that we'll be broadcasting tomorrow. And Travis will be on N Knights of the Storm on Saturday. Joe, we've got a problem. What? Who are you? It's the new mug they're selling at thedavidknightshow.com, right? So, basically, a mug is something that holds liquid, right?
Starting point is 03:04:21 Because, basically, you can't hold coffee with your hands, right? I'm a scatly, but anyone tries to mug me, I'm be ready for it. You dog-faced pony soldier. They say the mug can help patriots drink coffee, then save the world. This could be bad for us. Save the world? But we own the world. This could be bad for us. Save the world? But we own the world. These people, they're
Starting point is 03:04:47 supporting free speech with every month they buy. Come on. These people, I tell you, will anyway. You're listening to The David Knight Show.
