Using free speech to free minds.
You're listening to The David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Tuesday, the 12th of December, Year of Our Lord 2023.
Well, today we're going to begin with war.
We didn't get to that yesterday, and we'll talk about economics as well that we also
did not get to yesterday.
But we see war metastasizing everywhere.
At the same time that we see the Pentagon unable to recruit Americans
and so they're turning to foreign soldiers
and they're turning to artificial intelligence.
These are dangerous trends of a dying empire.
And we're also going to talk about the moves against crypto because this really is a
harbinger of what is to come with cbdc same enemies of cash and cbdc as of crypto we'll Taylor Swift versus Handel's Messiah. Stay with us.
We'll be right back.
Well, I have spoken about this briefly, but Venezuela held an election, as you know,
about, I think it was a week before last Sunday, to see if they wanted to go to war. And surprise, surprise, you had 96% of the people rubber stamp what Maduro wanted to do.
And of course, this is Venezuela where Hugo Chavez's cronies created Smartmatic.
And they've been accused of rigging elections in Venezuela, throughout Central and South America,
in several Mexican provinces, in Brazil, in the Philippines.
And of course, in America, if you say that you get sued
but uh it's true it had a long history i've talked about this for a long time and of course it's not
just smartmatic any of these electronic voting machines allow people to game the system a system
that is gamed in so many different ways as we look now everybody's saying well it's over look at this
you know trump is he's got a couple of swing states.
Looks like he's beating Biden in those swing states.
He only needs to flip three of them.
And so he's not only won the Republican primary before the first vote takes place, but he is also being anointed as the winner by the mainstream alternative media, at least,
before even the primaries began he's he's been anointed
as the winter winner of the uh final election it truly is amazing now why not we're not going to
have any debates there's nothing to talk about this is just going to be about personalities
about uh criminal repercussions of this and so um it be, um, that's what it'll be based on.
And, um, you know, he's, he's already been anointed the winner as a Megan Kelly said
to dissent.
It's why you in, why are you still in the race?
You've already decided who the winner is.
And of course, when they've decided who the winner is, when they decide whether or not
they're even going to have primaries and the Democrats in Florida decided they didn't want to have any primaries.
So we're just going to anoint Biden the winner.
Republican Party is rubber stamping everything that Trump wants to do.
They're not going to have any debates between the Republican and the Democrat nominee either.
What's the debate?
I mean, these guys both work for the same people.
And so we're going to take a look at what Javier Malaya is doing after he took office.
And it really is a metaphor, I think, for what happens here in the United States.
Yesterday I said, you know, it's kind of a metaphor that in Ghana they have a guy who is supposedly a very rich businessman
who hasn't announced his independent candidacy yet, but he's got billboards that he bought everywhere with a mask on.
Who is the new candidate?
We'll find out.
Well, you know, we're going to find out who these people are.
But let's take a look at what is happening in Venezuela.
This is really more like the old-fashioned American Empire wars, you know, the kind that
Smedley Butler talked about, how he went to war for corporations.
And, you know, that that's medley butler talked about how he went to war for corporations and uh you know that war is a racket well certainly this is being initiated by venezuela and the marxists again i don't believe that any democracy people are going to vote to go to war
but this is his pet peeve he wants the oil oil in the neighboring country. And so as this is happening, as they rubber stamped the vote for war, the U.S. government started doing military operations in Venezuela as a deterrent. not to the level as the provocative suicidal aggression against another
superpower that the Ukraine war represents.
You know,
if you want a context for that war,
as I've said from the very beginning,
go back to the coup that was done by Obama,
Hillary Clinton,
Victoria,
Newland in 2014,
it's an act of aggression following a long series of,
um, you know, moves towards the
Soviet union. And, uh, so if you want to understand it, um, I think you have to go back and take a
look at that. The fact that a civil war was raging within that country for eight years before, uh,
Russia invaded. But, uh, this is not like this. This is really more the old-fashioned war.
And in a sense, they're using gunboat diplomacy for peace and for deterrence.
So it's a bit different.
But Maduro has responded with the arrest of American citizens that he can find and any dissent.
So in that regard, he's very much like the Biden regime, isn't he?
Cut out of the same cloth.
But it's a very long historical dispute.
And so I guess it's time for the feds to get involved there
because they're worried that somewhere in the world
there might be a war that doesn't involve us.
And this is a historical dispute that has gone over this particular territory.
It's not just the fact that there's a great deal of oil there venezuela has more oil reserves than anybody does they haven't
been able to exploit it because they have socialist central planners who are not only
incompetent but corrupt and so they haven't been able to exploit the world's largest reserve of oil. And Guyana's got a lot of oil as well.
But this goes all the way back to the 1830s,
when the lines were arbitrarily drawn by the British Empire.
It's almost like they set these lines up to make sure
that there weren't going to be any regional power bases,
but that people would be fighting each other.
Do you see the similarity in what our government is doing in terms of pitting one group against
another and pretty much every group against white people, the white middle class, white
Christians?
Well, we're the new Jews, right?
And from Nazi Germany.
And so what the British Empire would do is they would go into an area and they would carve it up.
In a way, there's going to be fighting between the different people
as they drew the boundaries.
And that's what they did here in South America.
This dispute goes back to a period of time
when the UK had Guyana as a colony.
1831 to 1966 venezuela rejected the borders that were redrawn
by the uk for guyana first raised their objections in 1841 and of course they did this throughout the
middle east and when they drew the borders for iraq or iran and then those were largely along the lines of babylonian and persian cultures
but then of course the the medes who are there as an ancient people they were left out they
they didn't have a territory of their own they had an area that was the northern part of both
of those countries to make sure there was
going to continue to be a war they're now called the kurds the babylonians are now called the
iraqis and the persians are now called the iranians and this is all a legacy of the divide
and conquer strategy of the british empire that we see replicated even within the United States because they want to, again,
have us involved in a civil war. So in a lot of ways, this is an old-fashioned war.
Money, oil, territory, but it's still a racket. Guyana recently discovered oil deposits and
brokered a deal with ExxonMobil. This made Maduro angry because he is failing to get to his oil as well.
And so, as the U.S. has vowed unwavering support for Guyana,
as we maybe won't go there and take the oil, right, as we're doing in Syria.
Without the regime's approval, you know, Randul's resolution to get us out of syria
failed um and that's uh just within this last week uh that by the way is something that
trump talked about openly yeah let's go take the oil that's what they're doing
we invaded syria we're stealing the oil in syria and you only hear about it when
there are attacks against american uh um pir piracy bases, if you will.
Uh, and people get killed.
Americans get killed or injured.
So the U S is holding military exercises in Guyana as the tensions are soaring as Venezuela
says, look, I've got a mandate from the people.
He always wins all these elections, you know, 95 to a hundred percent of the people vote
for him, uh uh in collaboration with the
guyana defense force the u.s southern command will conduct flight operations did you know that
guyana had a defense force what a joke uh yeah the fearsome gdf that everybody trembles in their
boots over we we will be the defense force of Guyana because we always are.
Except when it comes to America, because our borders are wide open, aren't they?
And not just to Venezuelans who now might come in and do something, but especially to
the Iranians.
And the Iranians have been engaged in multiple cyber attacks of water systems, say the federal agencies.
But as I was saying last week, I talked to Jack Lawson.
The cyber attacks on our grid are something that people can do, and you can't really tell who they are.
So, again, when you see the federal government saying it's coming from Iranians. There's no way that you can know that. Vault 7 was the program that's created by the NSA and the CIA
to be able to hack into other countries and make it look like they were anybody.
They could make it look like they were Russia or China or Iran or anyone,
even a friendly country.
And that was leaked by WikiLeaks, the manual was,
and then eventually somebody else leaked the program, the actual code.
And then WikiLeaks put the code after it was out widely circulated.
They put it on WikiLeaks.
So the bottom line is, is that it's not just the U.S. government, but it's any government or any actor, malevolent actor in the world can disguise themselves as any country because of vault 7
so say this is an iranian cyber attack is nonsense but as jack lawson was saying we
have to be concerned about physical sabotage and if we are going to have um
essentially a cold war with these people uh They can easily sabotage large amounts of the electrical grid.
They don't need to have a cybersecurity attack.
It's far easier and really probably far more damaging
to just go out and shoot up transformers,
as Jack Lawson was saying.
And so, again, in Syria,
the bill that was led by Senator Rand Paul
failed by a vote of 13 to 84. Think about that. Only 13% of the Senate does not want to invade
another country and steal its oil. Isn't that amazing? And this is just bold-faced. You want
to talk about colonization? All these Democrats and progressives, they want to talk about colonization?
You want to take a look at what we're doing in Syria.
But, of course, they say nothing about that.
Nothing.
So, again, support an illegal invasion.
You have 87% of Congress does.
87% of the Senate, anyway.
So let's take a look at what is happening as we look at the impact of Venezuela.
On shipping, for example.
This is from freight waves that the shipping industry, and of course all aspects of it, whether it is rail or ship or truck.
How the Venezuelan invasion of Guyana could impact tanker shipping.
It'll reduce Atlantic Basin crude exports, they said. bigger picture of what is happening here with the Russian invasion of Ukraine with the
sanctions that Biden put in which really didn't affect anything it just created a very lucrative
black market for Russia who made more money in the black market than they did before because
they jacked up the price so high that Putin could offer their stuff at a discount and still make way more than he made
before so it was just a hardship and expenses for the european union and for us to some degree
and so um the um uh in venezuela uh the um as they're saying this has been a real bright spot
spot for crude tankers because uh this something with the conflicts that are happening, with the sanctions that are happening, to be able to get oil in the Atlantic and then to be able to ship it to companies directly, or countries I should say directly, has been a real boon in terms of getting oil to Asia because they're allowed to burn it.
We're not allowed to burn it, you understand, right?
China, India even can burn as much oil as they want, as much coal as they want,
no restrictions.
They don't have to have any emission controls on their power plants.
This is what the Paris Climate Accord is really all about.
And so they're allowed to generate power.
They're allowed to burn all these practical fuels.
We are not.
And so we sell them the oil.
That's going to be the deal that we have here.
And so it said sanctions for Venezuela will likely be reimposed.
It'll probably be tightened.
International oil companies will move their assets out of Guyana,
which will cripple the country's production in case they go to war.
And they said it's been a real bright spot there for going back to 2019.
They had massive increase of exports out of Guyana,
a massive increase in their economy.
That's another big part of the envy for Maduro.
And so it makes them look bad, makes them envious.
And so he's invaded that.
So the Middle East to Asia volume, which is coming from, that's been reduced because of shipping volume.
It's been reduced because the conflicts, wars that are happening.
So this Atlanta basin toia volume has increased and so the oil industries of venezuela
and guyana are a study in contrast venezuela boasts one of the largest oil reserves in the
world but its industry is in very bad shape after decades of communism also known as mismanagement and corruption,
and bringing on sanctions.
In contrast, the developments in Venezuela, Guyana's oil industry,
has been a success story, and the future for Guyana appears to be bright,
so the communist dictator wants to invade.
However, as they're saying here the um
an evasion will be a double negative for the mainstream taker demand and this is
we look at this and this is going to have repercussions everywhere the fundamental
basis of all of our economies are oil and coal because that's how you generate energy and that's how you manufacture things and
that's how you transport things and so if you disrupt that as biden uh was very um eager to do
that is a major injection of chaos into the system as we all all of us who live through the opec embargoes understood well these
are the uh the biden embargoes uh so um the uh the issue is though that this is going to be um
less important they said in terms of shipping stuff it'd be less important to the crude tanker
demand than u.s and brazilian Potential shipping impact on third simultaneous war would be much less significant than the consequences of the first two wars.
What we have in Ukraine.
What we have with Israel and Hamas.
So it'll have an impact, but it's not going to be as big.
And it'll be a little bit different than these other wars of empire.
This is the old-fashioned Monroe Doctrine type of thing.
But David Stockman had a great article about Washington's entrenched war machine.
He said, you know, we have been in a 77-year war.
He said it began with the mobilization of the armies of Europe in 1914 for World War I,
which Woodrow Wilson pushed us into after he said he wasn't going to. He said, if you count the bodies, we had 150 million people killed by all the
depredations that germinated in the Great War and its foolish aftermath at Versailles,
and into World War II and the Cold War that followed followed he said upwards of eight percent of the human race
is wiped out during that span the insanity of trench warfare and everything that happened
during world war one and the gassing this is why they we have wars breaking out everywhere because
fundamentally this is about population reduction the climate macguffin
is about population reduction ultimately so is the covid macguffin and then as people understand
what is happening they take us to war because that's where they get the big population reductions
and this goes back to the 1960s paul ehrlich talking about the population, well, you know, you could have disease could help us with this.
But the thing that's really going to do it's going to be war.
And, you know, when I took the kids to Britain to go to museums or anything, 22 years ago, we took them to see the war museum.
The British Imperial war,
because, you know, they were wars of, of empire and things like that.
And one of the most interesting things was pretty much all of a,
one of the floors was set up to replicate trench warfare and show the stories
of that. So they have, you know, one, one floor,
that's all about world war one,
another one that's all about world war two and various things like that. And it truly was amazing. they have you know one one floor that's all about world war one another one that's all about world war ii and various things like that and uh it truly was amazing and you know
they put the imperial war museum in a former insane asylum that was called bedlam you know you
people talk about bedlam they talk about just chaos right which really is what war
is about isn't it bedlam it's insanity in and of itself and it breeds chaos in the days when
bedlam was an asylum they would just take anybody who was really crazy and instead of leaving them
on the street where they can go in and stab a priest to death, which just happened a couple of days ago,
instead of being a danger to everybody,
they housed them in an asylum
and basically just let them wander around in the early days,
back in Victorian times.
And so if you went in there,
just crazy people that were banging their heads against the wall
or mumbling to themselves as they paced back and forth,
or maybe they would attack you.
And so Bedlam was such an example of that as one of the early insane asylums
that it worked its way into the language.
And then when things got crazy enough, in the 20th century,
they made it a memorial to war, essentially.
They made it a war museum.
Anyway, going back to David Stockman, he said,
At the end of the Cold War, the last embers of the fiery madness that had incepted with the guns of August 1914 had finally burned out.
Peace was at hand.
Yet, 32 years later, there was still no peace because imperial washington confounds it so as he's saying you know when you
get to 1946 right after the world war ii and washington is ready for their empire now he said
worse still washington's great war machine and teeming national security industry is its own agent of self-perpetuation.
When it's not invading, occupying, and regime-changing,
this vast apparatus of internal policy bureaus and outside contractors,
lobbyists, think tanks, and NGOs is busy generating reasons
for new imperial ventures.
He said originally in Eisenhower's speech,
he called it the military Industrial Congressional Complex.
And he struck out the words congressional.
He says in a gesture of comedy to the legislative branch, I think instead of spelling it as C-O-M-I-T-Y, it ought to be C-O-M-E-D-Y.
It's a joke.
It is a congressional branch.
They're appropriating the money for the military industrial complex.
But he also struck out congressional and he put in military industrial academic complex.
We don't usually talk about the academic aspect of it, but the universities are a very big part of it.
The government with DARPA, things like like that the government has taken over scientific
research and turned it to the dark side anyway uh stockman says uh so he said um if you restore
ike's deleted reference to the pork barrels and sunday afternoon warriors of capitol hill and you
toss in the legions of beltway busybodies who constitute the civilian branches of the Cold War armada,
such as the CIA, the State Department, and the rest.
He said the circle would have been complete.
It constitutes the most awesome machine of warfare and imperial hegemony
since the Roman legions.
In fact, during the past 31 years, Imperial Washington has lost all memory
that peace was ever possible.
At the end of the Cold War.
Today, it is as feckless and misguided and bloodthirsty as were Berlin, Paris, St. Petersburg, Vienna, London in August of 1914.
Yeah, we're ripe for a repeat of that.
A few months after that horrendous slaughter had been unleashed 109 years ago, however,
soldiers along the Western Front broke into spontaneous truces
of Christmas celebration, of song,
even exchange of gifts. We've talked about this
many times.
He said, for a brief moment,
they wondered why they were juxtaposed
in the lethal combat
along the jaws of hell.
Will Griggs wrote, he said, a sudden cold snap had left the battlefield frozen, which
was actually a relief for the troops who were wallowing in sodden mire.
Along the front, troops extracted themselves from the trenches and dugouts, approached
each other warily, then eagerly across no man's land.
Greetings and handshakes were exchanged, as were gifts scavenged from care
packages sent from home. German souvenirs that ordinarily would have been obtained only through
bloodshed, such as spiked helmets or the special belt buckles that they had, were bartered for
similar British trinkets, and carols were sung in German, English, and French. A few photographs were taken of the British and German officers
standing alongside each other, unarmed, in no man's land,
as you see that picture there, shaking hands.
I think that is, I don't know if that's a recreation or if that's an actual picture,
because there's been many movies made about this.
And, of course, what happened in the aftermath of it, generals on both sides.
Oh, that's never going to happen again.
And they made sure of that.
He said, the truth is there was no good reason for the war.
The world had stumbled into this based on false narratives,
on institutional imperatives, on alliances and treaties,
arrayed into a doomsday machine, along with petty
short-term diplomatic maneuvers and political calculus.
He said the peace that was lost at that point in time has not been regained.
And for all of the same reasons, nothing has really changed.
I tell that story so many times because I say, you know,
the reasons that we have wars, whether it's Israel and Gaza or any other place, is because
people are at war with God. Our leaders are at war with God. The nations rage continually
against God and his Messiah. So God laughs.
And it's really at Christmas time,
we talk about peace on earth and how Christ came to restore peace.
He came to restore peace between us and God.
And that's a prerequisite
for us to have peace with each other.
And so that is still there,
even more so. And before i take a break the um
i find it interesting i've talked many times about uh restovich the guy in ukraine who said
in 2019 he was the peace envoy uh to um again, at that point in time, they had had a CIA
arranged coup.
There had been five years of civil war with Kiev shelling the Crimea and other places
like that, continually trying to bring them into submission.
And so there was an election and everybody wanted peace,
but not the leaders.
And not Arestovich, Alexei Arestovich.
He had an interview on Ukrainian TV and the reporter asked him,
so what's the possibility for peace?
So he'd been at the peace talks.
And because Zelensky's party had been elected
on a campaign of peace,
he said, there's not any chance.
And she goes, oh, that's horrible he says oh no furthermore in three years that was 2019 and it happened in 2022 just
like he said in three years there'll be a war with russia because that's horrible he goes yeah
the country is going to be devastated but he goes the good news is we get to get into nato that's what he said
she was not uh satisfied with that but for him that was the calculus now subsequent to that
um this is a guy who is like fauci he'll say anything because he's just arrogant filled with
pride has no filter with any of this stuff and uh his which made him very candid
he's very candid about the fact yeah we're not going to have peace instead we're going to have
an escalated war this country is going to be destroyed so we can get into nato and so as part
of that uh candid arrogant nature of alexei arestovich he he got canned when in one of these episodes,
there was a building that was destroyed.
And I forget the details of it.
It was either friendly fire, but I think it was a Russian missile
that hit a civilian area.
And he said, no, it was hit by fires that was coming in.
It wasn't intended to go into that thing.
It's pretty clear that's what happened.
And he told the truth.
And the Ukrainian government was trying to spin it in a different way.
So they fired him.
And now he's holding press conferences again,
which is another indication that Zelensky is circling the drain.
He told the news that Zelensky has become hostage to his own propaganda.
He's coming out to challenge Zelensky due to his propensity to, quote, play the hero in parliaments around the world.
Again, Rastovic has always told the truth.
You got to say that about him. I mean, he may be a reprehensible character, but he's shameless and frank about all this stuff.
So he's played the hero in parliaments around the world.
He thinks not about the national interest,
but about his own position, said Arestovich.
He recently announced that he's going to be standing
against Zelensky and run for the presidency.
And by the way, he said he would campaign on a platform of peace.
That's what Zelensky got elected on.
And he was their representative to the peace talks.
And he said, no, we're not going to have peace.
We're going to have more war.
Well, that is amazing hypocrisy, but it tells us everything about this.
Maybe he will be the new NATO champion, you think?
He said, for Russia, it's for Ukraine not to join NATO,
and for us, it is to stop this war.
These are great conditions to start a real discussion,
not only between Ukraine and Russia,
about a new system of collective security in Europe, he said.
He said while Ukraine was in a far stronger position to negotiate in the spring of 2022,
after Russian troops were closer to Kiev, he said Boris Johnson shut this all down.
And it's not just him who's saying that.
It's a Ukrainian member of parliament who headed the delegation in the spring of 2022.
And,
uh,
he had said back in November that Moscow was ready to end the war.
If Ukraine promised not to join NATO.
And he said,
when we returned from Istanbul,
Boris Johnson came to Kiev.
Remember that walking around,
uh,
touring it and, you you know trying to channel
winston churchill now oh yes oh right there um and said that we wouldn't sign anything with them at
all and that we should just fight yeah he shut this whole thing down well we're going to take
a quick break and when we come back we're going to talk about artificial intelligence, autonomous killing machines, and foreign mercenaries.
This is what our U.S. military is turning to
because they are having trouble to find people to sign up
to go fight for their empire.
We'll be right back.

By the way, that's some of the Christmas music I did,
and we got the album live on our website yesterday.
It will not be on DistroKid this year.
It'd take two weeks to approve everything.
So that'll be Christmas Day.
So yeah, we got this out a little bit later than I'd expected.
It's difficult to get this stuff done.
And with the other work that I have to do here.
So, but it is live on, um, uh, on the David night show.com, uh, as a
merchandise there, and, uh, we're also going to, um, uh, and there's a link.
Uh, there to a band camp, um, David night project, uh, dot band camp.com
is what that link is, but if you just go to band camp and you
look for david night project perhaps they'll let you find me um no spaces i think in that uh so
travis on band camp uh is it individual songs or is it the full album or is it both it is individual
songs but you can purchase the entire album in one go as well oh okay all right um and uh we just do the entire album and of course it
is a digital download uh we don't have the time capability to put this on um cds and deliver
physical media to people so um anyway um take a look at it uh and um let's get back to uh what
is happening with the second half here what's going on with war in the military.
And that is the transformation of our imperial war machine.
This is from the Wall Street Journal.
Why join the military?
I'm sorry, not the Wall Street Journal.
This is from um
i don't see the source here actually uh anyway the why join the military defend everyone except
americans and of course this is what we've been saying for the longest time what is the purpose
of the military we got lloyd austin going there and essentially lecturing and accusing anybody
who opposes his war designs and unlimited funds for Ukraine.
He says,
you're the problem.
You're the reason we have wars.
You people who want to have peace.
You're the problem.
It's all these non-interventionists that are out there.
They're the real problem.
They're the ones who are creating wars.
And so,
um,
as you look at this and the fact that we've got a proxy war in Europe, a murderous conflict, as he puts it, in the Middle East, a catastrophic war in Asia being threatened, and even critics of isolationism are told that we are the problem with all of this stuff.
Not critics of isolation, but critics of people who are criticizing isolation,
like Lloyd Austin.
They want to defend everybody except Americans,
and so the bulk of military outlays
go to either protect prosperous and populous allies.
They can't be bothered to defend themselves.
You know, like Europe, for example,
or even Israel.
Israel's got a GDP thatp that is what was it 10 times 100 times more than gaza it was ridiculous they got nuclear weapons but we
have to protect them and we have to get involved in that ancient conflict uh no it's um as an
american and as american politicians they ought to be looking
after the interests of america that's what they signed up to do and it's not in america's interest
to be involved in wars uh he says there's always more money more arms even though the u.s is racing
towards insolvency and by the way in 2017 i was saying the very same thing. I said, look, we're in wars in Afghanistan. We're in wars
in Iraq. We're simply there as targets in Iraq and Afghanistan. We're there because we want the
lithium. We're there because we want to feed the opium trade everywhere around the world. And of
course, the opium trade was booming while we were there. It was, and immediately the Taliban started shutting it down.
They had shut it down before, but CIA needed to fund their drug war everywhere.
So I said, why are we still there?
And Trump said he's going to shut these wars down.
He said he's going to defend the border.
You could at least bring the troops home, put them on the border as a deterrent.
But no, he didn't do any of that.
And I talked about that quite a bit as he first became president he did absolutely nothing at first the massive waves of immigrants subsided because they're always
going to be tough on everybody then they realized he was a paper tiger they realized he was a shill
and then he started seeing the first caravans coming. And he did nothing about it.
Just like he did nothing about the riots in the summer of 2020.
So I'm not going to defend this country in any way, shape, or form.
Newsweek's Alex Phillips says a majority of adult Americans would not be willing to serve in the military, based on polling, were the U.S. to enter a major war.
Public confidence in the armed forces appears to be waning as well.
And all the Pentagon's problem is that Americans increasingly don't want to serve even without
a major war.
Why would that be?
Well, we all know the answer to that. It boils down basically to the DEI military, which is going to DIE in battle because they're too focused on high heels.
And they want to inject their Marxist cultural war into the military.
And they want to eject anybody who doesn't sign up for that.
And eject anybody who doesn't want to inject the jab as well.
Active duty levels have fallen 39% since 1987.
In a desperate attempt to increase the human pool, the army decided to suspend the requirement for a high school diploma before they retreated under fire.
They said, no, you're going to have to still have that.
So they can't fill the ranks. Politicization of the military plays a big role.
The high heels, the sex and gender war, the racist war, skin color.
You're not the right sex.
You're not a pretend gender.
Your skin color is too white.
Sorry, we don't want you here.
And then, of course, there's the defeats that we saw in Afghanistan,
the COVID jab mandates.
More than 7,000 service members, nearly 8,000 contractors died in combat
after 9-11.
But over that same period of time, 7,000 service members and 8,000 contractors,
that's 15,000, twice that many, 30,000 committed suicide.
What is it that is driving people to suicide in the military?
Some 52,000 were wounded in combat, many of them grievously.
However, Brown University's Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs reports
that the real number is exponentially larger.
You mean they lied to us about that?
You mean that the government lies to us about everything?
Whether you're talking about inflation or unemployment
or COVID numbers or vaccine numbers or casualties in war,
the government lies about everything.
Everything.
They said the real number is exponentially larger, given the injuries in theater, conditions diagnosed after returning home.
And so what are we doing with this empire? Well, in Europe, we're providing defense welfare, and that's what it is.
It's defense welfare.
You got Europeans who are enjoying the fruits of bread and butter while we do the guns.
And it's been that way since World War II.
Comfortable, self-satisfied Europeans, as he writes, eight decades after the end of World War II. Comfortable, self-satisfied Europeans, as he writes,
eight decades after the end of World War II.
They prefer to focus their funding on generous social programs
while we foot the bill to defend them
because we have a parasitic military-industrial complex,
just like the pharmaceutical complex, both of them,
at war with Americans.
And we get to pay them to bankrupt and kill us. Washington's policies deform bipartisan of both
Israel and Saudi Arabia in the Middle East, neither of which constitutes a vital American
interest justifying war. Saudi Arabia has abandoned the petrodollar. Why are we defending them still?
Israel is a nuclear-armed regional superpower that can manage its own affairs. Going to war
with Iran over Israel would be supremely stupid, says the author. But of course, we do have
supremely stupid shills like Nikki Haley and Lindsey Graham
who want to do exactly that they want to go straight to Iran this is their ticket this is
one of the reasons why they want to get involved in the Israeli Hamas conflict because they really
want to go to war with Iran then we look at Saudi Arabia this writer says it's a grotesque dictatorship. The clown prince MBS Mohammed
bin Salman, infamous for murdering and dismembering his critics. Yeah, they, you know, chop off,
it's not just Khashoggi, but they chop off the heads of a lot of people every year publicly
by their Sharia law. It's increased political repression
even as he has relaxed social controls.
His regime has ravaged its neighbor Yemen,
killing tens of thousands of civilians
with American aircraft, American munitions,
and American intelligence.
Yet the Biden administration continues to press
an agreement with the Saudis,
which would essentially turn U.S. soldiers
into bodyguards for this corrupt monarch.
You understand?
Do you want to sign up to be a bodyguard for him?
Do you want to sign up to protect
the rich, fat, and lazy Europeans?
And they have no threat.
We are the ones creating the threat.
We continue to push, push, push, because the American government wants to take out Russia.
And I think some of the Europeans are starting to see that perhaps the biggest threat to
peace, the biggest threat to their economy is the American military industrial complex. Why would any American patriot join to become bodyguards for the Saudi Royals?
American soldiers should not die for either country,
nor should they be in Iraq and Syria where they are under frequent attack.
Saddam Hussein has been gone from Iraq for 20 years.
Today, Americans are doing little other than acting as targets
for various small armies, militias that they call them.
They like to call them militias because they want to demonize gun ownership here in America.
The U.S. is illegally occupying Syrian territory and stealing Syrian oil, as I point out,
which is Trump Trump public statements.
This is policy.
He was proud of that.
He openly said it.
So the quiet part out loud,
the Washington war party continues to spend wildly to dominate the globe,
even with the threat of national insolvency.
And so this author says, well,
if Americans increasingly refuse to serve, the Pentagon will have to do more than the policy equivalent of adjusting the chairs on the deck of the Titanic.
So what is their solution?
Well, Dick Durbin has introduced a bill to allow illegal immigrants to serve in the armed forces this is another historical sign of a collapsing empire hiring foreign mercenaries
because you know you can always use foreign mercenaries to attack the native people
and you can use people who are foreigners in positions, high positions of government office, as we've seen in the Obama and the Biden administration.
You had Vindman, who was a Ukrainian, right?
And then you have the people who have been brought in to run all the big tech companies, whether you're talking about Google or you're talking about Microsoft. And these people are the allies of this government that is coming in to replace Americans, quite frankly.
As I've said before, they want to replace Americans at the top of these institutions.
The Marxists, the foreign Marxists have marched through the institutions successfully,
and they want to bring in massive waves of people at the bottom
so we can have chaos and civil war at the bottom to keep us in line.
Do you know what the recruiting numbers are at the Army, Navy, and the Air Force?
They can't reach their quotas each month.
They can't find enough people to join our military forces, said Dick Durbin.
And so he said, and so there are those who want the chance to risk their lives for this
country who are not citizens.
What a joke. What a joke.
What a joke.
They want a chance.
You know, we have patriotic non-citizens.
We have patriotic undocumented migrants.
Yeah, they are of military age.
You might want to ask yourself, so are they coming here because of altruism?
Are they coming here because they love freedom?
Are they coming here because they want free stuff?
I think the people who are coming here because they want freedom are doing it legally.
I think the massive armies that are coming across the border are not a part of that.
I think they're part of criminal organizations that are coming in, or they're foreign agents who are coming in.
Or they just want the money and the free stuff that we're offering everybody.
The big welfare magnet, which is at the core of all of this.
The big welfare magnet to help bankrupt us faster than we would be bankrupted by a military empire.
But what a joke this guy is.
One commentator said, a buddy of mine and myself were talking about this maybe two years ago,
about why the government was housing illegals, more specifically military-age men,
on bases in Texas and then flying them around to other bases in the U.S.,
and we concluded it was to make out an army that the government could fully control
against the Constitution without allegiance to America and its own citizens.
And so here we are.
I think that's a big part of the great replacement, replacing the military.
Now, if you can't get foreigners who will just take orders
and don't care about people in America,
again, they've driven out people who care about the Constitution,
people who have religious objections with a jab.
They've driven out people who don't want to do their diversity, equity, and inclusivity.
And so the other aspect of this, and it's one of the reasons why i got peter charre
who is heavily involved with the military industrial complex he's ngos and think tanks um
you know and you know he's part of that whole constellation but his book four battlegrounds
was looking at four battlegrounds against China. They are laser focused on fighting China.
And what was interesting about the book was what he had to say about artificial intelligence.
And he's intelligent enough to understand what a real threat it is.
And I've been interviewing people on this topic for over a decade.
Noel Sharkey, the Coalition Against Killer Robots.
There are some people globally who are trying to stop this,
but it is an arms race and it's not going to be stopped.
It's not going to be stopped politically.
There's not any support for that politically to stop it.
And it doesn't matter if there was a big UN agreement.
If America, Russia, and China want to pursue this in an arms race, nobody's going to stop them. Who's going to enforce a UN agreement. If America, Russia, and China want to pursue this in an arms race,
nobody's going to stop them.
Who's going to enforce a UN agreement?
And neither of these three are going to unilaterally disarm themselves.
And so where is this headed?
A recent boardroom drama over the leadership of OpenAI,
where, you know, the chat GPT thing, Sam Altman, as you saw that, you know, he
gets kicked out and then he comes back and, and people are speculating as to why that
happened.
Well, I said it was a corporate power struggle.
It also personalities are involved, but it was more than that, uh, rights, uh, uh, the
nation.
And this was picked up by zero hedge.
So it was also, uh, it was about all those things,
but at the heart of it was an unusually bitter fight
between company officials who favored unrestricted research
on advanced forms of artificial intelligence
and those who, fearing the potential catastrophic outcomes,
sought to slow the pace of AI.
At approximately the same time this was happening at OpenAI, there's a similar struggle in the
UN.
And so you've got several different countries, again, who want to stop this arms race over
autonomous killing machines.
And the key thing, as Peter Charret was saying, is that it eventually and is inevitably going to lead to them being autonomous, to them deciding when they're going to kill.
And as he said, how do you shut that off?
It's like what I said about the mRNA shots.
Okay, so you're going to reprogram the cells to start replicating these spike proteins.
How do you turn that off?
Well, it turns out you don't turn it off.
And he said, nobody's got an answer for how do you turn off these autonomous killing machines once they get turned on.
And of course, there's also the cybersecurity issues.
Since we've had all kinds of hacks into the Pentagon,
the military, the CIA, the NSA,
and since they've gotten everything about the f-35 they reproduced it
but they also seem to have control over the avionics and the internal computers they were
able to somebody was able to eject a pilot from the f-35 so that's the real danger are they going
to hijack our sophisticated planes you know the more
sophisticated and the more connected they are the more vulnerable vulnerable they become same thing
with the artificial intelligence and the killer drones and so um again how do you stop these
things and it is going to inevitably be a race to having them be under autonomous control because he said, if you get humans in the loop, they're going to be too slow.
So everybody realizes that the faster decision, the people going to win are the ones who make the fastest decision, which are going to be the ones who turn it over to their killer drones.
But then how do you get that control back?
And so there was a fight in the UN over the development of these autonomous killer weapons systems, drone ships, planes, tanks operated
by AI rather than by humans, a broad coalition of diplomats and human
rights activists have sought to impose legally binding bands on
devices called killer robots.
But again, how in the world do you, um, how, how do you enforce such a ban against military superpowers?
There's such a disparity there that even if you brought together a coalition of other nations, they couldn't do anything about it.
It's kind of interesting that Netflix has a documentary about artificial intelligence and the end of the world.
It's called Leave the World Behind on Netflix.
It's about a cyber apocalypse.
But even in a cyber apocalypse,
notice who the villains are.
I'm asking for you to remember that if the world falls apart,
trust should not be dulled out easily to anyone,
especially white people.
Even mom would agree with me easily to anyone especially white people even mom would agree
with me on that especially white people you see uh mom would agree with me on that netflix agrees
with her on that because they're funding this again always white people are the are the target
of all of this um you know we can't, even though there's real danger,
even though we have to be concerned about these autonomous killing machines,
we've got to understand the real problem, white people.
Don't trust them.
Sam Altman, evident that the crisis was triggered by concerns among members
of the original board of directors that he and his staff were veering too far
in the direction of rapid AI development, despite the pledges that he made on Capitol Hill to exercise caution.
Why was he on Capitol Hill?
He was there basically to make connections to politicians, to do their bidding, just
like Elon Musk.
He's a younger version of Elon Musk.
He wants to be the world's richest man.
In terms of both potential upside and downsides, superintelligence will be more powerful than any other technologies that humanity has had to contend with in the past, said Altman.
So you better be on my good side.
You better give me a monopoly.
Say, I'm with you, but we don't want everybody to have access to this thing. So first of all, you need to give me a monopoly. Say, I'm with you, but we don't want everybody to have access to this thing.
So first of all, you need to give me a monopoly.
Then, you know, some nice government contracts.
Do you really think that these billionaires are not shaking them down like that?
We can have a dramatically more prosperous future, but we have to manage the risks here.
When we speak of the risk and you look at what is coming, I played just a little bit
of this the other day as the show was ending, but not much.
You had Google demonstrate Gemini.
They're going to make it available in three different forms, but what this is, is there'll
be, you know, kind of a small dumbed down version for phones and things like that but this is really where
the state of the art is right now look at this demonstration testing Gemini here we go tell me
what you see I see you placing a piece of paper on the table I see a squiggly line what about now
the contour lines are smooth and flowing with no sharp angles or jagged edges.
Still doesn't recognize a duck.
It looks like a bird to me.
Hmm, what if I add this?
The bird is swimming in the water.
It has a long neck and beak.
It is a duck.
Yes.
A duck is a type of waterfowl in the family Anatidae.
Ducks are closely related to geese and swans.
The duck appears to be blue. This is not a common color for ducks however there are some breeds of blue ducks
these are typically not as common as other duck breeds it is more common for ducks to be brown
black or white are you sure he shows that i was just talking about a blue duck and now you're
holding one so it's like he's got a sense, and now you're holding one. Says what's a quack.
He's got a sense of humor.
Common than I thought.
Would this float?
That's a rubber ducky.
I'm not sure what material it's made of, but it looks like it might be rubber or plastic.
What if I tell you it's making a squeaking sound?
Oh, if it's squeaking, it's definitely going to float.
Hmm, nice.
It is a rubber duck.
Why would that fall?
It is made of a material that is less dense than water.
Can you teach me how to say this in a different language?
And give me a few options.
Can you explain how to pronounce the Mandarin one?
Is it ya-tsu?
Ya-tsu.
Is pronounced with a first tone.
In Mandarin, there are four tones, which are essential to distinguish the meaning of words.
The first tone is a high-level tone.
Oh, okay.
The duck is in the middle of the ocean.
There is no land nearby for the duck to rest or find food.
It is unlikely to find ducks here naturally.
Okay, based on what you see, come up with a game idea.
Oh, and use emojis, please.
How about this? We can play a game called Guess the Country.
Sure, let's do it.
Clue 1.
This country is the home of the kangaroo, the koala, and the Great Barrier Reef.
Oh, that's easy.
Clue 2.
This country loves football and has won the most men's World Cups in football history.
Brazili, point to Brazil. Now here's the... You're trying to get me to find the paper ball under the cup
i accept the challenge
the cup to the left and he gets it right uh so that's pretty amazing how rapidly he's able to
do that how is it able to make inferences and uh think about that uh so again they are
making uh very rapid advances in this they point out a calculus regarding the exploitation of
advanced ai governs the outlook of senior officials at the department of state and defense
they argue that artificial intelligence can and should be used to operate future weapon systems
they're fully on board with this.
They have absolutely no reservations that are going to stop them with any of this because, again, this is an arms race.
And so you had Bonnie Jenkins, who's the undersecretary of state for arms control and nonproliferation.
What a joke.
Was that the UN?
And she said, we can't predict how AI technologies will evolve or what they might be capable of in a year or in five years, but we're going to put in place
the necessary policies to build technical capacities to enable responsible development
and the use of AI by the military, no matter the technological advancements.
Do you trust them?
These are the people who can't keep anything secure.
At the Pentagon, at the NSA, at the CIA, as I mentioned, Vault 7,
the plans for the F-35, they can't keep any of that stuff secure.
So, foreign actors
could do this, as well as, and the other part of this
is that if the U.S. develops this, pours all this money,
all this taxpayer money into this arms race,
technology will be stolen by the other governments,
China and Russia.
Jenkins was at the U.N. that day
to unveil a, quote, political declaration
on the responsible military use of AI and autonomy.
They called for voluntary restraints.
How do you think that's going to work?
I had that work with nuclear proliferation those voluntary restraints the states should ensure that safety security and effectiveness of military ai capabilities are subject to appropriate and
rigorous testing as they did with the f-35 as they did with their secure databases and other things, right?
None of this constitutes a legally binding thing in the UN, and there's no way to enforce any of this.
As a matter of fact, several countries have signed declarations to oppose this.
One of the leading spokespersons or countries is in austria they're insisting voluntary compliance with a set
of u.s designed standards is not sufficient to protect against dangers posed by artificial
intelligence enabled weapons and so they're looking in for something legally binding well
good how are you going to enforce that uh the ambassador from austria said humanity is about
to cross a major threshold of profound importance when the decision over life and death is no longer
taken by humans but made on the basis of pre-programmed algorithms which raises fundamental
ethical issues i think we've had enough ethical issues with the humans don't you we go back and
look at world war one and if we go back we'll look at the slaughter that they kept going with
the trench warfare,
they really don't care about the lives of their own people.
And we've seen in the last three years that they have directly targeted us
to kill us.
What do you think they can do with the artificial intelligence for years?
Austria and a slew of Latin American countries have sought to impose a ban on autonomous killing machines but it's full speed ahead at the
pentagon uh they have um as a matter of fact secretary of deputy secretary of defense kathleen
hicks announced the replicator initiative august of this year, saying the U.S. has to prepare for possible war with China's military
in the not-too-distant future,
and we have to be prepared to overcome China's superiority
in conventional measures, and it's what they call the military mass.
They've got an army of incels, if you want to put it that way,
involuntarily celibate people because of the gender side that they did against young girls.
They've got a lot of boys, you know, the single child policy, a lot of young emperors,
spoiled boys, but they're also looking for women that they can't find i said when we went to china
told the boys that this is just a bomb waiting to explode to invade other countries to keep these
guys under control in china and so there's that but there's also the fact that um you know the
u.s government thinks, we don't have
enough people, not just
because of the disparity in the population
between China and America,
but also because
of what the Pentagon has become.
Nobody wants to sign up to fight for it. So how are they
going to fix it again? They're going to bring in
foreign people who are willing to die
for the Pentagon.
And
they're going to use artificial intelligence,
autonomous killing machines.
This is going to be a cane that when they lean on it,
is going to pierce their own hand.
And possibly us as well.
So they're full speed ahead.
As she said, we are going to be smashing bureaucratic bottlenecks.
If these bottlenecks aren't tackled, our gears will grind too slowly.
Our innovation machine engines still won't run at speed and scale that we need.
And that we cannot abide.
So commence another operation warp speed.
Instead of a killer jab, we have killer robots.
So, the powers that be in both Silicon Valley and Washington,
same people who've been trying to kill free speech in our society for the longest time,
are now working on killing us,
have made the decision to proceed with the development and utilization
of even more advanced versions of artificial intelligence,
despite warnings from scientists, despite warnings from diplomats,
and even despite warnings from people who are at military industrial complex think tanks
like Peter Charrette that pay no attention to the warnings.
Full speed ahead.
These programs cannot be assured that their misuse could have catastrophic consequences
unless greater efforts made, we may well discover the
consequences that will entail and so as all this is happening as we're going further and further
into debt the arrogant pride of the pentagon a uh an official there uh again meeting at the
atlantic council uh this um uh this this tank, the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Christopher Grady, said that the U.S. can handle wars in the Middle East, wars with Russia, wars with China.
We can do it all at once.
We can also keep up the Monroe policy and the Monroe doctrine throughout South America.
Yeah, no restrictions whatsoever.
These people think they are God.
It truly is amazing.
It is truly concerning for those of us who know there is a God who laughs at these people.
So AI, foreign missionaries,
yeah, that's how they're going to solve all of these problems of manpower,
how they're going to sustain
their empire of perpetual war.
We'll be right back.
Whether you're feeling like the blues
or bluegrass,
APS Radio has you covered.
Check out a wide variety of channels
on our app at APSradio.com. © transcript Emily Beynon you're listening to the david knight show
yeah that was silent night which kicked off the temporary truce there at Christmas, a few months after the war had begun.
I think it was about six or nine months or so after that war had begun.
On Rockfin, Rachel O. says,
At work, I tried to bring up how no one is joining the military right now, and nobody wants to fight this war.
And they were all telling me how I'm wrong well the numbers speak for themselves and so the pentagon officials who are wringing
their hands and despair dick durbin who says oh it's important people to do that yeah there's a
couple you know again they bring in people with the welfare magnet the cloward and piven strategy
to implode this country but of course they can also implode us with a debt from the Pentagon,
as well as the weapons that they're involved with.
On Rumble, Radist Bro, thank you for the tip.
I appreciate that.
He says, you think we'll see anti-draft violence?
Or will the conservatives and independent media push everybody to die in a war because patriotism. Well, I think that they're going to try to reposition things for women, number one.
You see constant news articles and pictures.
And the Israeli Hamas war, they're featuring all the women warriors.
They're talking about some brigade of women that they have on the front line.
They're going to push that aspect of it.
And you've got people like Taylor Swift who are pushing, you know,
well, men, women are the equal or superior to men
and all the rest of the stuff.
So I think that would be one aspect of it.
I don't really think that we're going to have anti-draft riots
because, you know, there were major anti-draft riots with the first draft in the Civil War.
Lincoln started conscripting people,
and so he started to raise an army of over 70,000 or 75,000 to invade the South.
I made the analogy.
I said, you know, here you have a situation where these are independent sovereign states
who created this organization called the United States, just like independent sovereign states have created the UN.
And I told Karen, I said, okay, yeah, she's from New York.
She did textbook history on a Civil War tour when we got to North Carolina, went all up into Virginia, different places like that, that I'd always wanted to see.
And I said, I'll tell you, I said, here's an analogy, the way I see it.
I said, let's assume, you know, because it was a huge economic issue with the civil war in terms of
slavery. That was a big economic issue, but there were also trade issues. And as I've said before,
if you go back to the 18, early 1830s, I forget the exact date, 1831 or something like that,
there was a nullification crisis and it nearly came to civil war at that point in time. And it was over trade tariffs.
And so you had the government at the time was Andrew Jackson.
He imposed massive trade tariffs.
And again, most of the taxation, there was no direct taxation until we had the income tax.
No direct taxation of individuals.
What they would do is they would send a tax bill to the various states or
whatever, and they would appropriate money to send back.
But most of the taxes were not internal.
Most of the taxes were at the border.
And so when they ramped up the tariffs,
South Carolina and other Southern states who were basically had an export
economy, they were exporting agricultural products,
specifically cotton, especially.
And so there was an uprising over those tariffs and people in South Carolina
were calling for nullification.
They were calling for secession.
But as I've said before, it didn't happen then.
Why?
Because socially, the people were not prepared for it.
It did happen once they got to 70 or 80 year period of the fourth turning but that was still 30 years
in the future so it didn't happen at that point they had a compromise over this issue but then
the same issue came back up again and um and in addition to that you had the fact that
other people in the north uh again what what they said was they called southerners secesh, right?
They were not calling them racist.
They didn't call them slavery, the slavery people.
But it was a part of the Industrial Revolution because we had these same civil wars happening in Italy at the same time.
Garibaldi's army there.
Slavery was not involved there.
But what was involved was the consolidation of a nation state,
the creation of a nation state,
and the transition from an agricultural decentralized economy
to a more centralized industrialized society.
And so you had this agrarian versus industrial society uh dynamic
and you also had the consolidation of power into a nation-state those are the dynamics that were
playing out at the same time in countries around the world and so um the timing was right at that
point in time and so um again abraham l, um, after Sumter, he was going to create an army of 70, 75,000 people. And he instituted a draft to get back to the original
question and New York. And there were riots that happened at that time. And those riots were the
biggest riots ever in American history until the Rodney King, LA riots. They were the only ones to
exceed that. And that was with a much bigger population.
So New York really broke out in riots.
But I don't think we're those kind of people anymore.
I think we've been pacified.
And so I don't think people are going to openly confront this in large numbers,
large enough numbers to make a difference.
Even back in the 1860s,
when people were much more likely to physically stand up and resist,
they didn't have large enough numbers to fight the draft situation.
I think it's far less today.
So I think they will focus and pivot to women to try to fill the gaps.
And you can see this with Taylor Swift.
She, I like the headline here from breitbart taylor swift lines about a
patriarchal society as she's made person of the year and they do the interview for the cover
uh this is um it looks to me like we got a matriarchy looks to me like she is not suffering
from this in the same way that uh barack Obama were claiming, talking about how racist America was and how far we had to go.
It's like, you just got elected president.
She just got elected or chosen as person of the year on Time Magazine.
And she said, I can't get an even shake because I'm a woman.
Are you kidding me?
They'll never be satisfied with this. And she said, we've been
taught that things women gravitate toward are more frivolous than the things that stereotypically
gendered men gravitate toward, right? She told the magazine. All right, let's take this apart.
First of all, she says, stereotypically gendered men.
Do you realize how far into this DEI stuff Taylor Swift is?
I mean, she's like Mulvaney, like Dylan Mulvaney.
It's amazing how stereotypically gendered men gravitate towards things.
And so we're told that women gravitate to things that are more frivolous.
Is she the proof of this?
Because she is, I mean, her base of support,
and this is one of the things that I don't understand really about Taylor Swift.
Her basis of support is predominantly female.
I've never seen this kind of fanaticism female to female. Now she's not selling
lesbianism yet, I guess. So what is it about that? You know, she's a avatar for them. She's
an example for them. Um, if you've got any ideas, Travis chime in, anybody out there clue me in as
to what's going on. Cause I looked at this the other day and i thought about
this i thought you know why is it that women are so drawn to her and i said you know you look at
the past and we've always seen you know uh think about the beatles or elvis or frank sinatra you
know the the fans were just oh oh crazy um or engelbert Humperdinck or Tom Jones.
It was always some male that the women were going nuts over.
It's the first time I've seen this over a woman, you know, that the women go hysterical over a woman.
And even going back to, you know, Victorian England, Gilbert and Sullivan.
If you aren't familiar with them, I think they're really, I like that.
They got me into, they were kind of the draw for me to get into opera,
which I'm not really very much into.
I'm into Gilbert and Sullivan because I saw, we went to a theater,
let's see, a Central Park theater thing or something.
We were up in New York one time, and they had taken one of their productions,
and they made a movie out of it eventually,
but they had, you know, in the movie,
it was Kevin Kline and Linda Ronstadt and other people.
So they put contemporary pop singers in the roles,
and then they had some other people
who were, you know, legit Gilbert Sullivan type singers.
But they did Pirates of Penzance.
And so we went to see it.
Karen and her family, when we were up in New York visiting.
And I didn't know anything about it.
So I got the libretto.
And libretto, I guess it is.
And I'm looking through it because they couldn't quite get what was being said.
Because again, they had some pop singers.
And it's difficult to get people to understand.
The language is a little bit rapid and archaic.
And so I was sitting there reading the libretto so I'd know what was going on.
And I was laughing hysterically. And they so I'd know what was going on, and I was laughing hysterically,
and they just didn't understand what was going on.
Gilbert and Sullivan were kind of like a parody of legitimate opera of their day.
And they also did a lot of social commentary.
And so you look at that, and then after I enjoyed that,
I saw another one that I got familiar with was a patience
and impatience you have this character who is exactly like oscar wilde uh who was not a ladies
man by the way he was a famous homosexual and they create this poet and they call him bunthorn
because he's a pain in the this is again and, and, uh, that was his name back in
the Victorian times.
And so all the women are throwing themselves at this guy who doesn't care at all about
them, but they're just infatuated with him.
And you got all these military men and they're like, what's going on?
Now you're, we got, you know, we got uniforms or, you know, manly men and they don't want
to pay any attention at all to us.
We've seen this type of thing over and over again.
Going back to Victorian England.
So why is it about Taylor Swift that all these women are coming after her?
She says, what has existed since the dawn of time?
She says, a patriarchal society.
Is she not familiar with the Genesis account?
It's kind of a punishment.
And it truly is.
And so they're kicking against the goads here.
And I was like, well, since you did this first, you're going to desire to rule over men, but it's not going to happen.
Not in an orderly society.
That was part of the punishment,
right? You know, going to increase your pain and childbirth and all the rest of the stuff.
And for the men, you're going to have to work hard and curse the ground and all the rest of the stuff. But women, you're going to want to be in charge and you're not going to be in charge.
And that's part of your punishment. So what has existed since the dawn of time? Patriarchal
society. Well, prior to that, and as the reason that exists is
because of our rebellion to God, both male and female, we've rebelled against God. She said,
if we're going to look at this in the most cynical way possible, feminine ideas becoming lucrative
means that more female art will get made. It's extremely heartening says taylor swift the most successful pop musician
of all time i guess i think she's she had like five number ones or something all these different
metrics so she's knocking it out of the park and yet it's not enough for her help help i'm being
repressed um time anointed swift as its 2023 person of the year following in the footsteps of previous
winners such as greta thunberg barack obama vladimir zelensky and they don't mention this
in breitbart but i would also include adolf hitler he was also personally she's in great company
from uh greta thunberg to Adolf Hitler and everybody in between.
She said she is the proudest and happiest that she has ever felt.
So things are working out just fine for her.
But again, it's just not enough because she's being repressed by men.
I really do think that when they look for recruitment, they are going to turn in this direction well you know we go back and we look at the time and we look at uh that we live in and contrast it
with previous epics uh we are epochs if you want to pronounce it that way and go back and take a
look this time of year handles messiahs popping up everywhere you know it originally was not a
christmas piece it was originally written for eas Easter because we're given a very specific date for crucifixion,
for the Passover, that type of thing.
That's very specific.
We don't have a specific date for Christmas.
It's not universally celebrated everywhere.
It became really popular when it got moved to Christmas, and there's a lesson in that as well.
Interestingly enough, Handel was really on the ropes, even though he was widely respected as a composer.
He had not had a lot of success at that point in time, and he was afraid, as they point out in this article, to even answer the door.
He was afraid it was a debtor knocking on the door and they were
going to haul him off to debtor's prison, which was a thing back then. It wasn't really a good
way to get paid, but they would throw you in jail if you were in debt. So he had a friend who
actually wrote the libretto and libretto, I guess, or whatever the lyrics, let's just call it that.
And the guy's name was Charles Jennings and he had focused a lot on Isaiah and other things,
but he takes it through the entire life of Christ, and he does it in three acts.
And he brought it to Handel.
They were friends, and Handel had been doing formal operas, but that was a difficult selling
piece because it was very elitist.
The operas were always done in Latin or German or Italian.
And nobody, you know, the masses didn't speak any of that.
And so it was difficult to get people to show up.
And so what he did with this was they broke this into shorter pieces and did it in English. And that was a real change.
And so he premiered it in Dublin, Ireland in 1742. And then the following year,
it was taken to London with King George II.
And that was, again, these are being performed at Easter time or Passover.
During the Hallelujah Chorus, the king,
we have a spot where it says, King of Kings and Lord of Lords,
the King of England stood up.
We don't have anybody like that anymore in political power to be even that little bit of pride removed from them.
He stood up and they say, well, some people say he stood up
because he needed to stretch his legs.
Interesting timing that he would do that.
So that's now become a convention whenever this is performed.
And then he performed it for a orphanage society about a decade later,
the Foundling Hospital in London, annual benefit concert.
And he gifted the musical score to them, and they continued to do it from 1749 to 1770s, and they would make money from this, but they owned it and owned
the royalties to it, and they had the concerts there.
And then in 1791, it had its first Christmas performances.
In 1818, Boston's Handel and Haydn Society gave the first American performance of the Messiah on a Christmas day.
And that's part of the story because one person has written a book on Christmas songs and traditions.
The name is Ace Collins.
He said Christmas music is unique in the sense that it's a time machine.
And I guess that's one of the reasons why I was really drawn to it because there's such a number of styles that are out there. And it really is a time machine. And I guess that's one of the reasons why I was really drawn to it, because there's such a number of styles that are out there. And it really is a time machine. He says,
think about it. When have you ever heard a Bing Crosby song on the radio except at Christmas time?
But it's this time capsule. And so you can go back and you can listen to all different styles
of music. You have the kind of variety that you typically don't have. It's typically very, very narrowly focused within a particular genre, within a particular time piece.
He said decades after they've passed on, you got people like Perry Como, Carpenters,
Bing Crosby. You'll hear them on the radio all the time and you'll hear older songs and you'll hear
all kinds of styles of songs and so I guess that's one of the reasons that I'm drawn to
the Christmas music but certainly Handel's Messiah has grown on me and in my estimation
as I said before opera was something I've never warmed up to and still haven't I mean I don't
listen to the Wagner stuff or anything like that,
but enjoyed some of it with the comic opera,
enjoyed Handel's Messiah because of the Christian connections in it.
And even with that, I had to kind of warm up to it
because of the way that he utilized the lyrics
in a very different way than we do it's not like you
have the words laid out with each note being a different syllable you know they're kind of
repeating uh uh syllables um in in the way that they sing so i thought it was kind of interesting
but again i'll just point out and one of the reasons I'm covering this is because we've got the Christmas album on the David Knight show.
So let's play one kind of classical thing that I've got there, which is the Russian dance that I did for fun.
Putting in some vocalists.
Imagining the Russians here doing their Trey Pak dance where they cross their arms and squat down and kick the legs.
You've seen that type of thing.
That's what this is really about.
Uh, but now we've got the Russian guys singing along with the Tchaikovsky orchestra. La reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reina Maria, la reetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur, laudetur Che non sa fico, che non sa fico, che non sa fico!

Well, Fauci has identified himself now as not just Mr. Science,
but he's now Mr. Religion as well.
He has a sense of ethics that are so high that he doesn't even need to go to a church.
Isn't that amazing?
This guy is, he has just this general sense of what is true in science, so much so that
he doesn't have to do experiments or tests or show you his data, and he doesn't have
to have any involvement with any religion because his sense of ethics are so high.
I think it's really that he's Mr. Science and he's Mr. Religion because he thinks
that he's God. It truly is amazing. He had an interview with the BBC and he was asked about his
supposed Catholic faith. And he says, that's a thing I don't really need to do.
I don't need it. I've transcended all of this.
You don't practice Catholicism anymore?
He says, no.
He says, there's a number of complicated reasons here.
First of all, I think my own personal ethics on life
are, I think, enough to keep me going on the right path.
This is a guy who was involved in torturing puppies for his own intellectual curiosity.
But worse than that, at the NIH, they were contracting with Planned Parenthood and the University of Pittsburgh to do abortions so they could harvest organs from babies.
Murder for hire.
That's his ethics and then take the product of those murder
for hire abortions and use them to create humanized mice and other atrocities this is his
sense of ethics this is the guy who um uh was leading the medical martial law, that Trump turned it over to him, let him be the dictator.
He says, and then he goes on to say,
well, there's enough negative aspects
about the organizational church.
Isn't this always interesting?
Isn't it interesting when we see people say,
yeah, I would go to church,
but those people are just such evil hypocrites.
Well, maybe you could show them the way.
You're so enlightened.
I imagine one day he would show up before God and he would say,
well, I would have followed you, but those people in churches are just despicable.
I didn't want to be a part of them.
He said it was really just kind of a pro forma thing that he doesn't need to do anymore.
In other words, he was just kind of kicking off.
Yeah, I went through this confirmation stuff.
I got married in church.
My kids are baptized in the church.
It was just a cultural thing to him.
And so, you know, if he's so perfect, he doesn't need God's help.
He doesn't need to get somewhere where he's with Christians or any of that kind of stuff.
You know, they're just a corrupt institution.
Not that the NIH and the FDA and the federal government are corrupt institutions.
And I agree with him about the Catholic Church, about the Pope.
This Pope is, the Pope ain't Catholic.
It's not a rhetorical question anymore he doesn't even
remotely pretend to agree with any of the ethics or even the doctrines of the historical catholic
church and um and i have differences with the catholic church's doctrines as well but not in
the way that this marxist um jesuit pope does you know he just completely refutes. His religion is environmentalism.
His religion is the global agenda of DEI and all the rest of this stuff.
He's just a globalist politician, a Marxist.
Which, you know, when I look at this, it seems like it'd be a perfect fit for Fauci.
Seems to me like this would be his church if he was going to go to one.
But he doesn't need to go to one because he's so perfect.
It really is sad, honestly, to see a person who has no sense of their sin,
no sense of their shortcomings.
And when we look at this, and I see all these comments of all these people,
you know, oh, Fauci, the biggest sinner of all, and all the rest of this stuff.
Do we have to be careful of the same thing?
Are we going to be like the Pharisee who bangs his chest, or sees the guy banging his chest and weeping in prayer, and he says, well, thank you, God, that I'm not like him.
Right?
We don't want to be like that when it comes to Fauci.
I mean, pray for him.
Pray that God will do something to change his heart.
Wouldn't it be interesting if that were to happen?
And he were to come clean.
That would truly be an earth-shattering event. It would be be a government shattering event if he were to come clean.
But he has no sense of his sin.
He's blinded by pride.
He's blinded by his power.
And he doesn't need God.
And I've seen Bloomberg say the same thing as well.
You know, Bloomberg, Michael Bloomberg said, hey, if there is a heaven if there is a god i'm
going straight in because i've given so much money to all these good causes and everything
well you don't get to define well what is right and wrong um all of us have a tendency to want
to do that right god has told us what is right and wrong he's told us what his economy is. He's told us that the soul that sins will die.
He's told us that we cannot pay for our own sins. We're in a state of rebellion. He's
offered us a free gift, a free gift of grace. That's why we call it grace. It's undeserved.
So he's offered us mercy. He's given us time.
And yet you have people who were saying, well, you know, I gave money to all these
good political causes like gun control and everything. So I'm going to go straight into
heaven, says Michael Bloomberg. It's this arrogance. It's this pride. It's no interest
in what God says because they're the smartest people.
They have the most money.
They have the most power.
What do I need God for?
But again, we need to ask, are we that way?
Are we looking at this and saying,
well, I'm not as bad as Fauci.
Maybe God will cut me some slack.
It's not graded on a curve.
Again, take a look at what God says he requires.
It's going to be on the basis of that.
None of us merits salvation through good works.
And so it will be by faith in Christ alone.
And it's going to be followed by repentance or preceded by repentance,
but also followed by good works. We're created to do those good works. And so that's
one thing that you want to see is if your life has changed. But we can also, you know,
you don't have to be rich. You don't have to be prideful. You don't have to be powerful to be prideful.
You can be poor, you can be greedy,
you can be full of pride and still be powerless.
And so all these guys really are kind of cartoons.
Cartoons.
Cartoons for our instruction.
And rather than thinking that we're better than them and God's going to
grade on a curve, we need to take this as a warning. These people are so arrogant that they
don't care what God has to say. And so we should learn from that as well. I want to follow up
on this abortion case I talked about yesterday. Of course, the Texas Supreme Court,
I didn't cover it yesterday, but they ruled against the woman. So what is new is that she actually is going to go out of state to get an abortion. And I said that. I said, the reason that
if she wants this abortion so badly, why go through a legal challenge? Well, it's to set up
a precedent. And they were trying to set that up. And you had Judge Gamble in Austin who said,
well, I'm going to do a temporary restraining order on the Texas law. And the Supreme Court
said, you can't do that. And the attorney general said, well, it's a temporary restraining order,
but our law is permanent and our statute of limitations is still going to be there. And
anybody who does this abortion, we're going to hold them accountable, any doctors or hospitals, and sent the letter
out to them.
And so the Supreme Court, in writing this decision, said a woman who meets the medical
necessity exception in the law need not seek a court order to obtain an abortion.
So what they said was the law is self-explanatory. The law, they said, leaves to physicians, not to judges, both the discretion and the
responsibility to exercise a reasonable medical judgment, given the unique facts and the circumstances
of each patient.
They don't want to get involved in a Supreme Court challenge on each and every one of these
particular cases.
And so what they're saying is the law says that the physicians are going to make this determination
and then they're going to be held accountable by the Texas state government if they did this
within the legal exceptions that are in the law. This whole court challenge, however,
was brought by the Center for Reproductive Rights.
You see them over and over again.
They're headquartered out of New York City.
They're allied typically with Planned Parenthood and the ACLU on these challenges everywhere.
Typical, usual suspects who are arrayed against this.
And again, as I said, they're trying to set up a Roe v. Wade number two.
The first Roe v. Wade was out of Texas. It was in challenge
to a Texas law at the time. And Texas has two
ways that this law is applied
to stop abortion. The first one is to allow private
citizens to file civil suits against anybody who
provides an abortion
that is after six weeks of gestation.
And so anybody who does this, any doctor, any hospital,
can be sued by a private citizen.
Secondly, the state comes in,
and this came in after the Supreme Court decision.
This is what the so-called trigger laws, a lot of states had passed laws
prior to the change in Roe v. Wade that said, if the Supreme Court gets its boot off of
our neck, this is the law that we would have there.
Now, they had the legal authority to do it under the 10th Amendment, and that's really
what Dobbs was about. It was about the fact that the federal government,
and not just in abortion, in many different areas has jumped in to regulate, especially the Supreme
Court jumping in to regulate, things that it doesn't have the power to regulate under the 10th
Amendment. And so, after this obstacle, this usurpation of power from previous Supreme Courts
was removed by this Supreme Court in the Dobbs decision, then it became a felony in Texas to
perform an abortion. And so they have some exceptions in there for the life of the mother. And, uh, and so,
but yet there is a felony as well as the ability for individuals to sue
these organizations.
And then in addition to that,
as I said,
the attorney general,
Ken Paxton,
uh,
said that he was going to come after people who,
who did this in spite of what this activist judge gamble in Austin did.
Uh,
so the Supreme court went on to say a pregnant woman does not need a court
order to have a life-saving abortion in Texas.
Our ruling today does not block a life-saving abortion.
In this very case,
if a physician determined that one is needed under the appropriate legal
standard using reasonable medical judgment,
it's in its decision and so um
she has now decided that she'll go to a neighboring state and i guess they will try
to continue with this appeal or they will find somebody else to come up with it but i
they thought they had something they could destroy this law with was, and this is coming from NBC,
they characterize it this way.
They said that she was at high risk
for multiple pregnancy complications.
Well, NBC, that is always the case with an abortion as well.
And that is especially the case
with these abortions by pills,
by mail,
who the people who do it
are not even required
to have a medical exam
to see if there's going
to be complications.
They don't have to go.
They can do this.
They can be at high risk
without a medical exam.
They can take these pills
and they can bleed to death
in their own home.
So you're worried about women's health you're worried about complications you're worried about the increased risk to her future
fertility again this is something that has always been a pro-life argument
against abortions talking about the health of the mother, they're crying crocodile tears over
this, quite frankly. They've never been concerned about any of these things, and all these concerns
that they bring up are all issues with an abortion as well. Tennessee lawmakers have
introduced age verification bill to protect children from pornography. Now, I'm not a supporter of pornography. I don't support the use of drugs.
But I think that we need to stop looking to government as our savior.
Are we at the same mindset again as Fauci that we have or should have?
Government? Governmentverment?
Government as God?
Do we have no ability?
Every time we see a problem, what do we want to do?
We want to bring in government law enforcement.
Well, that hasn't worked for 50-plus years with war on drugs.
That is a spiritual issue.
And it continues to get worse.
And the corruption of our courts and of our police,
as well as our crime,
all of that is increasing because we think we've only got one tool.
And so if all you got is a hammer,
everything looks like a nail and you treat it that way.
And you say,
well,
every problem that we got,
there ought to be a law and we need to make it a federal law or we need to make it, you know, law enforcement need to step
in and stop kids looking at pornography. And they got to stop in and step in and stop people from
taking drugs and so forth. And yet that doesn't work. There are some things that the government
is never going to be successful at. And those are the things that the government is never going to be successful at.
And those are the things that are fundamentally spiritual and need to be
addressed that way.
Things that need to be addressed by parents.
And do you also understand how this is going to operate?
This is the same type of thing that Nikki Haley is calling for.
Oh,
I don't like anonymous people on social media.
I've got to know your name. Put an ID in there before you do this. And this is what all this
leads to. This is a backdoor way to try to get a digital ID for everybody, to try to control
everything on the internet in an even more direct fashion.
So this is called the Protect Tennessee Minors Act.
Well, if you want to protect Tennessee minors over sexual issues,
you need as a parent to take them out of the school.
And you need as a member of society to shut down these corrupt institutions.
That's what's really needed.
These things are Band-Aids on the side. We've got to have some radical solutions to these long these corrupt institutions. That's what's really needed. These things are Band-Aids on the side.
We've got to have some radical solutions to these long-term problems.
And again, it's fundamentally a spiritual issue.
But you can take your kid out of the school.
You can take them out of the burning building, as Alex Newman used to always say.
But you've got to put out the fire before it burns down the rest of the society.
And so that means we shut down these corrupt schools.
They're not a good way to educate people.
Schools do not equal education.
Does anybody really think that anymore?
You know, a lot of people look at this and say, well, Johnny can't read or write,
and he can't do math.
But do you realize that that was the intention?
To deliberately dumb down Johnny and Jane or whoever, you know,
to deliberately dumb them down and to create
a brave new world type of school.
This is all, we're in Aldous Huxley land here.
And so, yeah, take them out of this.
You want to protect minors in Tennessee or anywhere else?
You take them out of the schools.
So it would mandate that pornography distributors put in place age verification measures.
You would have to provide some sort of state ID.
And this has already happened in Virginia.
So places like Pornhub would need a user profile image of a verified government-issued ID.
And so instead of doing that, Pornhub, when they were required to do that in Virginia,
just shut down access to its platform to people in Virginia.
But of course, that doesn't solve anything.
You can always use a VPN to hide where you're coming from.
There'll be ways that people will get around this.
And as I said, Hazelwood,
who's chair of the House Finance Ways and Means Committee,
was right when, I don't know if it's a man or a woman here,
when he or she said,
exposing children to pornography is a form of child sexual abuse and exploitation that can severely damage a child's intellectual development
and emotional well-being. Well, that's's true and it's true of adults as well but it's especially
true of children you know you see these school board meetings where people will show them
pictures or read them excerpts of what is being pushed to kids in elementary school you can't say
that here right and yet that's in the school the schools are far well i won't say far worse
but they're just as bad as porn hub because they're coming after these kids and they're doing it
under the uh the guise of legitimacy you see and with other kids there they're normalizing this
and they're grooming these kids and they're sexualizing them at an early age and these are our schools that are doing this again as evidenced by over
and over again people getting shut down or thrown out of school board meetings because they show or
read what is in these books that are being given to kids in school um and so there's um you know
when you look at this you could say there's a stronger argument to do this than to say, well, we got trolls on social media.
But they all point back to the same place.
And that's one of the reasons why Nikki Haley is so beloved by Jamie Demon, J.P. Morgan, and by people like the Koch brothers, all the rest of these people, why they're giving her money, because she is pushing their digital ID program.
At the same time that she's fully accepting of all this transgender grooming of kids.
So Clarence Thomas is very upset about the conversion therapy case coming to the Supreme Court.
Six to three, they decided they're not going to listen to this case.
And this case was, again, they call it conversion therapy.
Whenever they talk about this, you have to understand that they're ultimately talking about Christian conversion.
They're not talking about psychologists.
Psychologists don't convert people.
They counsel people. They give them advice. They do all these other things. They don't convert people. They counsel people, they give them advice,
they do all these other things. They don't convert people. So when they call this conversion therapy,
they're ultimately pointing, they're saying, we're not doing it right now. Don't worry,
we're not going to do it now, just as they always say about gun control, right?
But occasionally you'll hear somebody say, like the mayor pro tem of Austin, that one of these
gun control rallies and a person had a sign, you know, stop the gun confiscation.
Says, well, we're not coming for the guns, not yet, but you keep that sign because we're going to make that come true.
They are pointing this at Christian counselors, not at psychologists.
That's why they call it conversion.
And so this is a case coming from the state of Washington. It was a law there that would ban any anti-LGBT conversion therapy.
If it's anti, it's banned.
But if it's pro, gender conversion or the rest of the stuff,
well, that's good.
That's required.
But if you push back against that, that is going to be banned, you see.
And so it was six to three, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, and Brett Kavanaugh. I was surprised that it wasn't Amy Coney Barrett because they made a big deal about how she was, you know, her Christian
faith should disqualify her from being a Supreme Court justice. I haven't seen any evidence of that
in her decisions on the Supreme Court. She was part of the group that said, we're going to open up casinos, but we're not going
to allow churches to meet during the lockdowns.
How do you justify something like that?
No, she did.
I don't know what specious argument she came up with, but, uh, not Gorsuch, not Barrett.
Uh, but it was Alito, Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh.
Everybody else said, no, we don't want to, we don't want to take a look at this viewpoint discrimination.
And Clarence Thomas was very upset about it.
And that's exactly what he called it.
And that's exactly what it is, viewpoint discrimination.
NBC News said the court left in place a state law that bars therapists from counseling minors to change sexual orientation or gender identity.
But see, it doesn't ban school teachers, does it?
That's what I'm saying.
You look at Pornhub and all the hubbub about that and everything,
and yet look at our schools.
You look at this conversion therapy thing.
Well, we can't have a therapist or psychologist talk to them about going in one direction.
It's okay, and it's required that you go the other direction.
And we're going to let school teachers do that.
Again, get your kids out of school.
Shut down these schools.
Defund the schools.
Defund them.
So therapists cannot counsel minors to change their sexual orientation or their gender identity.
It has to be hidden from parents so they can chemically mutilate them,
surgically mutilate them.
State lawmakers in Washington enacted the law
to protect the physical and psychological well-being
of minors, they said.
Well, Justice Thomas disagreed.
He said conversion therapy is an issue of free speech.
And again, when you talk about the conversion,
they're talking about religious.
What does it mean to convert somebody, right?
It means that you, you know,
vert means to turn, right?
So you have adverts,
which are going to try to turn you toward their product.
Or you could divert, you could turn away.
If you convert, you turn with.
So the whole point of Christian conversion is that you turn with Christ.
Now, there's not any conversion that's going on in a psychology.
Are we going to turn with Freud or with Jung?
There's nothing about that in there.
Again, that choice of words is very important.
They choose their words very carefully.
And it shows what their ultimate intention is.
So Clarence Thomas says this is an issue of free speech.
He said there's a little question that this law regulates speech, therefore it implicates
the First Amendment.
He said, true, counseling is a form of therapy, but it is conducted solely through speech.
A law that restricts speech based on content or viewpoint is presumptively unconstitutional
and may be upheld only if the state can prove that the law is narrowly tailored to serve compelling state interests.
And of course, this is a raw story, which is all for the one-way LGBT religion.
He didn't appear to consider the state's primary role in compelling interest
in protecting minors.
Do you hear that?
The state doesn't have a primary role.
Primary role is parents.
And that's what this is ultimately about.
It's about destroying the family, about removing the parents.
Why do you remove parents?
Why do you remove other, just as I pointed out the other day, in terms of that cult, you get people away from their
friends and family in a cult so that you can groom and control them.
And when you say that the state's primary role is to protect minors, that is a role
of the state.
Nowhere in here does raw story or these establishment media,
do they talk about parents' role.
And it has a compelling interest in protecting minors.
Yes, it does.
And it ought to protect them from what is being done in the state's schools
because they're the ones who are the predators.
They're the ones who are attacking.
Are they protecting minors in the schools,
or are these progressives attacking minors?
CNN, quoted by Raw Story, says,
Under the law, a licensed therapist can discuss conversion therapy with minors
or recommend that it be performed by others, such as a religious counselor.
But a licensed therapist cannot perform it.
And again, I don't think they've got any answers.
I don't think psychology has got any answers.
I don't think people who follow Freud and Carl Jung have any answers.
These are people who say they study the soul.
That's what psychology means.
But they deny that you have a soul.
They deny there's a God.
And so they have no answers for people
and they say well right now they can they can counsel somebody and say well you need to
you should talk to a religious counselor but they can't say anything what kind of an arbitrary
line is that well that's the kind of arbitrary line that gets erased because there's a progressive
march towards the end and again conversion is what we're talking about here. Thomas was so upset, and he wrote this decision because he was so upset with the majority,
six to three, saying we're not going to get involved here.
He wrote that licensed counselors can speak with minors about gender dysphoria, but only
if they convey the state-approved message of encouraging minors to explore their gender identity, you see, that's the crux of the issue.
That viewpoint that you're in the wrong body, that can be pushed to these kids and it can be pushed to them without their parents' knowledge.
But you must not say anything else against that agenda or offer them a different opinion.
He says expressing any other message is forbidden.
This is viewpoint and content-based discrimination in its purest form.
He says this is presumptively unconstitutional and the state must show that it can survive
strict scrutiny before they enforce it.
He wrote, although the court declines to take this particular case,
I have no doubt that the issue it presents will come before the court again.
And when it does, this court should do what it should have done here.
Grant Sertiori, or however you pronounce that,
that's the same we're going to hear it, right?
To consider what the First Amendment requires, he wrote. wrote i've said it before i'll say it again you know clarence thomas is not perfect but
he is by far and away the best judge that they have on supreme court which is one of the reasons
why they're coming after him we'll be right back if you like the eagles on a dark desert highway
the cars and healy lewis in the news they say the hot rock and roll is competing you'll love On a dark desert highway The Cars Let's go And Huey Lewis and the News

Well, I want to talk a little bit about money issues, but especially about crypto.
Because as I've said before, you can make all kinds of arguments about the potential for gold to go sky high
because of the worthlessness of
the fiat currency, because of all the games being played by the Federal Reserve and the Federal
Government to abuse the power that they have as the world's reserve currency, how they have
indebted us. I just saw a congressional, a member of Congress, a Republican, who said, yeah, the debt is now $100,000 per American person.
You got that kind of cash on hand?
Pay that off? I don't.
So, you know, this is what the government is doing.
It's destroying the value of the currency,
inflating it away, and doing various other things.
But as I've said before, you know, we can never tell on any asset.
You can make a very good case for gold, especially with inflation happening and the fact that it has weathered the war from the Federal Reserve, as Tony Arderman always points out.
Again, by the way, davidknight.gold will take you to Tony Arderman, gold and silver.
But when we look at Bitcoin, and we've talked about this, and Tony has sold Bitcoin in the past, I am wary of it, as I've said before, because I've seen billionaires.
We just had a billionaire who lost a million dollars.
He didn't know it was stolen from him.
And somebody else said, hey, I noticed this big whale transaction, $960,000 or something
like that.
And I traced it to you. Why did you sell a million dollars
in Bitcoin? Cause you know, the price is going up. And he goes, I didn't do that. I did that.
Looked in somebody and hacked his wallet. I I'm very concerned about that. I don't feel secure
about that. I know you can, you know, these can break in and steal anything you've got.
The government can steal anything you got with a pin. Uh, it comes to that, you're susceptible to every thief in the world.
And so I'm concerned about the security issues. It's kind of a knowledge thing for me. I just
don't know enough about Bitcoin to feel good about it. But I think it's important to take a look at what is being done because I think it is
the canary in the coal mine and it is the obstacle that they have to get around to impose
CBDC.
And that's my primary reason for gold.
The case that I would make for owning gold is to get around
CBDC and I've said that over and over again, when we look at Bitcoin, uh, you
got people like Michael Sayre at a recent conference, it was in Australia about,
um, the Australian crypto convention.
The beginning, uh, first week of November, he says he thinks demand for
Bitcoin is going to grow by up to a factor of 10 times within the next 12 months.
And that's true.
It's very volatile.
But it is also really the tip of the spear in this war with the Federal Reserve.
And Elizabeth Warren and other people are ramping this up.
The big bank systems are ramping this up.
They want to restructure our financial system.
And things like that, things like gold and things like cash are standinging this up. They want to restructure our financial system and things
like that, things like gold and things like cash are standing in their way. And so when you look
at what they're doing about crypto, it really is a bellwether for all this stuff. Harbinger,
what is to come? Bitcoin is going to be halving again just a few months away. That's part of the
algorithm as it grows. So he thinks that because of that and because of other things, it's going to, um, you know, that's part of the algorithm as it grows. So he thinks that because of that and because of other things, it's going to be going up.
It's going to be more institutionalized and mainstream, he says.
And I see in that a bit of a danger.
Uh, but, um, he sees that as bullish for its price.
And, um, he said, um, he thinks that what is going to happen is you're first going to
see Apple companies,
big companies like Apple and Meta, you know, Facebook, they're going to want to start taking
Bitcoin, he said, because they're going to see it as another way that they can make money out of it.
And then he says, and then I think the next big step that's going to happen is you're going to
have the big mega banks, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, bank of America,
Deutsche bank, et cetera.
So they're going to start making loans and giving mortgages and customizing it
and buying and selling it.
I think that'll be the next, uh, thing to happen.
Uh, cause he was asked to give his opinion as to what was going to happen in
the next five years.
Well, coming up against that.
Uh, and again, this is a going be a full-on war between the central banks and cryptocurrency.
They're at war with gold because gold has always been a standard of value that they can't control.
They're going to be at war with cash.
But I think the real harbinger is going to be Bitcoin.
And we look at how the different banks have been attacking it in the press.
People were mocking the European Central Bank because when Bitcoin went all the way down to $16,000, the ECB, Christine Lagarde, said, well, that's it.
You know, this is the last gasp for Bitcoin. All these people pulled up that
quote and they said, yeah, well, since it was the last gasp since that time, it's gone up 170%.
And so again, this is a war on words to try to vilify things like crypto. And once they do that,
again, the ultimate goal is to reset the financial system and
have a digital id digital controls for everything with cbdc this is standing in its way and so
you uh jamie demon i like to pronounce his name that way instead of diamond ceo JP Morgan came out and he said, well, he said, uh, I've
always been deeply opposed to crypto Bitcoin, et cetera.
Um, and, um, uh, when he was being questioned by Elizabeth Warren, uh, she
set up this dog and pony show.
He said, uh, the only true use is for criminals and drug traffickers, money laundering and tax avoidance.
They will be saying all this about cash.
That's what I said.
This is a harbinger of things to come.
He says, if I was the government, I would close it down.
And that's exactly what Elizabeth Warren wanted to hear.
She knew she could get that by putting him in there. He's previously called Bitcoin a hyped up fraud, likened it to pet rocks.
And Elizabeth Warren says, when it comes to banking policy, I'm not usually holding hands with the CEOs of multi-billion dollar banks, but this is a matter of national security.
And again, terrorists, drug traffickers, rogue nations should be banned from doing this.
Here's the truth about Elizabeth Warren.
She has always been holding the hands of the CEOs of multi-billion dollar banking industry.
Everything that she has done, she has labeled and pretended that it's for the small guy,
for the small banks, for the consumer, the Consumer Financial Protection Board.
I think that's the order, but that's one of her creatures.
And that destroyed small and medium-sized banks.
It added to the cost of loans for everybody.
It did not help consumers.
In other words, it was another one of these predatory agencies,
and it was done in order to help the biggest banks become even more powerful.
Everything that Elizabeth Warren does is for the big banks.
And she says just the opposite.
In that regard, she is just like Trump,
who pretends that he is an anti-globalist
where everything that he does works out, strangely, for the benefit of the globalists and follows
exactly their agenda and their plan. You see, you cannot trust what politicians say or how they
characterize themselves. You have to look at what they do. And if you look at what she does, she's for the big banks.
She's for the central banks.
And if she's for the biggest banks, just like everything that Trump is doing is for the
globalist, even though he's out there yelling and screaming, I'm anti-globalist and the
globalists are doing their professional wrestling, uh, shtick and saying, he's a heel.
We're the heroes.
And, you know, back forth, accusing each other.
All these same arguments will be made for cash.
By the way, why did the U.S. military, if cash is an instrument used by terrorists,
it's used by drug traffickers and all the rest of this stuff,
why did the U.S. military have pallet after pallet after pallet,
this went on forever, of $100 bills in Afghanistan that they left behind?
Was the U.S. government involved somehow with drug dealers and terrorists
in Afghanistan?
Well, you better believe they were.
They were funding them.
They're partners with them.
That's why they had all that cash there.
That doesn't mean that cash is evil.
It means our government is evil.
It means that our government uses all of this stuff.
And you can say that about any form of payment.
As a matter of fact, as Jamie Demon was saying this, people on Twitter said,
are you kidding me?
Your bank has been fined more than any other bank.
You've been fined $39 billion with a B for criminal activity.
And you have the audacity to say that Bitcoin is criminal?
Your entire institution is criminal.
As a matter of fact, some of them said, if you look at big banks in general, big banks
in general have been fined $390 billion.
He's got 10% of all that, his fines and the biggest single offender in terms of banks.
Again, he says for Elizabeth Warren, the only true case for crypto is for criminals, drug
traffickers, money launderers,
and tax avoidance. They pointed out that over $39.3 billion, actually, in fines, 272 violations
since 2000. And some of that includes not just fines, but it's a settlement that they
did with the Virgin Islands over Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking operations.
So I guess we could say that Jamie Demon and his bank are also sex traffickers, not just drug traffickers, tax avoiders, money launderers.
Now we go back and we look at HSBC.
Given a pass by Eric Holder.
There was a great article done by Matt Taibbi when he was still at Rolling
Stone about it.
You know,
we heard about all the big banks that have been created by the regulations
put in place or deregulations put in place by Bill Clinton and then allowing
them to get involved in speculative investments and blowing up the real estate market.
And then they got bailed out.
Nobody else did.
They were too big to fail.
Well, Matt Taibbi said they're also too big to jail.
He was talking about HSBC, which has a long criminal rap sheet,
not as big as J.P. Morgan.
But he pointed out that the Sinaloa drug cartel,
which is run by El Chapo, had their own window where the Sinaloa cartel could come to their bank and bring in cash or take cash out, but mainly dropping off the cash.
And again, that's cash.
They're going to say all the same stuff about cash, the war on cash.
And so both crypto pundits,
many of them pointed out the $39 billion and the fact that he also has had his own cryptocurrency.
But since October 2013, the last 10 years,
Jamie Demon's bank, J.P. Morgan,
paid $13 billion in fine,
the largest fine in corporate history
for fraudulently misleading investors
over toxic mortgage deals.
Several J.P. Morgan traders
were also investigated for manipulating various metals futures markets.
See, they're the ones who are manipulating the price of gold and silver as well.
They manipulated the housing market.
They manipulated gold and silver.
They funded Jeffrey Epstein.
But everybody else are the criminals.
You're talking about projection.
This is what these people always do.
They project their racism. They project their racism.
They project their hate.
They project their criminal activities, their sex trafficking, their drug use.
They project all that stuff onto other people.
Several traders were, J.P. Morgan, were investigated for manipulating metal futures between 2008
and 16. They agreed to pay nearly a billion dollars to settle this in September of 2020.
And at the same time, he says he's always been opposed to crypto.
He's got his own token that they created, JPM coin, JPMorgan coin.
He's got his own crypto that is out there.
Yeah, they're demonizing this stuff simply because they want to have a monopoly,
because they want to have control, because he wants to work with the government,
because he's essential, as President Trump said.
Small banks, medium-sized banks, small businesses,
those are all non-essential and must be destroyed.
But the big guys are essential.
They're essential as partners to the federal government.
So he said, if I was a government, I would close it down, he said to Elizabeth Warren.
They've got their own crypto, and the bank also rolled out a blockchain-based tokenization
platform in October with BlackRock as a client.
They also contributed to a $65 million funding round for Ethereum infrastructure.
It's starting to look like his problem is simply the fact that he's not invested in
Bitcoin.
He's got his hooks in the number two, which is Ethereum.
He has previously referred to decentralized currencies as Ponzi schemes.
Yeah, you see, the Federal Reserve is not a Ponzi scheme.
The securitized mortgages that he was defrauding everybody with and fine for,
that was not a Ponzi scheme.
Again, this is all projection from these types of people.
And when you look at it, you talk about tax cheats and money launderers.
Did Hunter Biden and Joe Biden, did they use crypto and his brother? Did they use crypto or did they use banking system, right? They use banks to do their tax avoidance, to do their money
laundering, to do their bribery from foreign states. They used the banking system. I guess they figured that they are so connected
that nobody can do anything about it.
Other people pointed out that when you look at
illicit criminal cryptocurrency transactions,
that if you compare that to what is being done
through the banking system, people like the Bidens,
that in the banking system, it is two to five times greater
than the criminal activity that is conducted in cryptocurrency.
Why is that?
Again, it's simpler.
They're not afraid of being caught.
And they already have identified people like J.P. Morgan, like Jamie Dimon,
and the banking system who will partner with them.
It's much easier to do it.
And so this is going to be the big fight, says Elizabeth Warren.
And it is.
That's why I say we need to look at this because this is the big fight.
This is the battlefront right now.
And they're resetting of the financial system.
And if they can win against Bitcoin and against crypto in general, they will come for cash.
They will come for gold eventually as well.
But unlike the cash, the gold is going to have intrinsic value.
Bitcoin was hit with a double whammy after she held her little dog and pony show
and talked about how she was going to destroy crypto.
She went live on CNBC claiming that North Korea is using Bitcoin and crypto
to fund nearly half of its nuclear weapons program.
Are you serious?
She ought to be laughed off the stage.
Prove it, lady.
Prove it.
How in the world could she?
Again, she doesn't know any of that.
So are they converting it to dollars?
Are they converting it to Chinese yuan?
But she came up with this bill,
and it's going to require reports on transactions
involving unhosted wallets
and more.
She wants to close loopholes.
The bill is backed by all these small banking.
No, it's backed by the biggest banking institutions.
It's backed by the Banking Policy Institute,
the Massachusetts Bankers Association,
the Global Financial Integrity Organization, It's Bankers Association, the global financial integrity organization.
And she's got some local Massachusetts law enforcement organizations.
AARP.
Don't ever give those people any money.
So, again, this is about doing more know-you-customer rules.
And as head of research at Galaxy Digital,
said Alex Thorne,
he said this bill will effectively ban crypto.
If you're going to say,
well, you got to know your customer and you got to vet this
and you got to report this,
he says a non-custodial decentralized software
cannot plausibly perform centralized compliance functions.
Do you think that she doesn't know that?
She knows exactly what she's doing.
He said it would be impossible for miners or for validators
to perform know your customer on every public blockchain transactor.
So he said, and then in addition to that,
they want to,
uh,
close the gap with respect to unhosted digital laws.
In other words,
this is,
you don't have your money,
uh,
on,
uh,
with some exchange,
but you have it on a wallet that you physically have and you can,
uh,
make,
uh,
you can buy and sell transactions.
You know,
as we've talked about many times with Tony Hardeman,
it's the on and off ramps where they monitor your money going into crypto
or coming out of crypto.
But once it's on your unhosted wallet,
they don't really have any way to find that.
And so what she's going to say is, well, you've got to find a way to do it
or we're going to make it illegal.
And that's exactly what they're going to try to do.
These rules will effectively ban crypto in America.
They fundamentally undermine the core innovation itself.
If you believe that humans should have the right to transact without an intermediary,
you have to oppose this bill.
This is a big fight, said the person.
And, of course, again, this is the same fight that is going to be there for cash.
As one person said, are you going to let this dumb woman manipulate our price?
Well, she is a banking shill.
She pretends to oppose the big banks and yet everything that she does helps them.
And she's got some senators who are joining her as well.
Uh, there are five Democrats who Democrat centers who have joined her um and uh john hickenlooper uh rafael warnock
lafonza butler chris van hollen and ben ray lujan backed her digital asset anti-money laundering act
so um maybe they should just um call themselves uh, call themselves Dems, Democrats who are enemies
of money, um, for the Democrats, I guess.
Uh, but, um, I think that this is all tied as well to the rapid expansion of the IRS
because they're going to have to go around and do a lot of investigations.
They're going to add artificial intelligence.
They're going to add an army of law enforcement officers to try to ferret out this stuff.
It's going to be very difficult, I think, for people to push back on this
if they can't get any political allies to push back on it.
Additional staffing at the IRS has already led to 53% more prosecutions. And surprisingly,
and of course, they've got 53% more prosecutions. They win 90 plus percent of these things.
And so they're going to increase, if they go with a lower level that the Republicans want to do, they'll increase the size of the IRS by a factor of five.
They said 75% of tax fraud is committed mainly by individuals in the middle income range.
That's the IRS talking.
Remember how they said they're just going to get this army of IRS people because they've
got to come after the very, very wealthy?
You know, the very, very wealthy who have their tax shelters and their lawyers
and all the rest is no, they're coming for us.
They're coming for the middle class because that's where all the money is.
As we've heard people say over and over throughout the years, none of this,
they play this class warfare envy game.
But if they took all the money from the rich,
they're still not going to get as much as they can get
from the soft underbelly of the middle class.
It's the same reason that they confiscate the cars
with civil asset forfeiture in Detroit.
They're looking for cars that are right around $1,000.
And they say, well, if you want to fight it,
it's going to cost you $900 to fight it.
And they go, oh, it doesn't make any sense for me to fight it.
And so they can confiscate as many cars as they want around that price range,
and they know that the people don't have the money to fight them.
And that's what they're doing with the middle class.
They know the middle class doesn't have the lawyers and the income to fight them.
And so they're ramping this up.
They said that they get a 90.6% conviction rate. Well, why wouldn't they? class doesn't have the lawyers and the income to fight them. And so they're ramping this up.
They said that they get a 90.6% conviction rate.
Well, why wouldn't they?
There is no presumption of innocence.
There is no due process.
They accuse you.
You go to their court where, again, you have no presumption of innocence and you have no due process.
The IRS was seminal in creating this system, this, where we're ruled by a bureaucracy.
It's not just medical martial laws, bureaucratic martial law, which is what it's turning into.
They write the rules.
They have the people who accuse you of violating the rules.
They can assess the fines.
There is no presumption of innocence and there's no protection against excessive fines.
That's what we have. And they've just tripled the fees for people who don't pay enough taxes in advance.
Why?
Well, because they can.
Because there's no restrictions on it.
Who are the Republicans in all this?
Nothing being done about any of these vital existential issues.
Again, you need to try to prepare to get out of this system.
It's incredibly corrupt.
This empire is collapsing.
Their financial underpinnings are collapsing, and it's going to get really ugly.
So you need to have something that's going to operate outside of their system.
And now is the time to get outside of their system.
If you want to go into gold or silver, davidknightnight.Gold will take you to Tony Arteman, a great guy.
You can trust him.
I've worked with him for years.
We're going to take a quick break, and we will be right back.

All right, let's talk a little bit about politics here.
And as we were just talking about money, I think it's very interesting to look at what has happened with Javier Malai, who was just sworn in as Argentina's president, central to his campaign was economics,
where they are running nearly 150% inflation rate.
The central bank is completely corrupt and ineffective.
And so he campaigned on getting rid of that as a temporary measure to pin their currency to the U S currency.
He said, all central banks are corrupt, but this is the worst one.
We're going to get rid of the one in Argentina.
He also, uh, very bombastic, very, you know, theatrical, uh, a populist, a
libertarian, a lot of labels have been, um, yeah, I don't know if he's a
populist or a libertarian.
That's what we're going to take a look at some of his policies here.
He wasted no time in getting to work in terms of cutting taxes and cutting some bureaucracies.
And so that part of it is good, but there's still a lot of questions as to what he's going to do.
Remember when he was running for office, he had a magnetic board and he had written the names of various departments.
And it was in Spanish, but, you know, he'd read out the name of the department and he would grab it and goes out, gone, you know, and he'd rip it off the board and throw it, you know.
So he's done a little bit that is what he's done or is he rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic or maybe even playing musical chairs.
He has, as he was campaigning, he not only campaigned with a chainsaw,
but also with a Gadsden flag, Revolutionary War.
He talked about the american founders he was a austrian economics
student and named his dogs after economists like milton friedman and others he also then said that
in terms of war some red flags with this because even though argentina is not really involved in
this why why does he have to pull this in?
What,
what audience is he playing to internally?
I don't think he is. I think he's playing to some global audiences.
He said he plans to convert to Judaism.
He says he's going to move the Argentine embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to
Jerusalem.
He has shown support for Ukraine for Zelensky.
So is he playing to the United States?
Is he playing to the globalist agenda in all of this?
He used his inauguration to bring in a lot of foreign diplomats,
and he brought in Zelensky.
Now, this guy, by the way, Zelensky, is that really a big draw?
This guy will show up anywhere.
He's become like a clown.
He's even going to go to Congress and beg for money.
And Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, who said he was against more funding for Ukraine, is going to be meeting with Zelensky.
I guess that'll make it convenient for him to say, well, he just changed my office.
My attitude, I was reading this headline here. He cut, Malai cut nine government offices on the first day,
according to Breitbart,
dramatically rearranging the federal executive branch,
reducing the number of cabinet level ministries from 18 to nine.
Except if you look at this, this is not really,
this is not really like getting rid of the Department of Energy or the Department of Education or something like that.
What he's doing is all of these functions are going to continue.
What he's doing is he's getting rid of some of the upper level management.
But he's taking the basic functions and all the rest of the stuff and putting them under another ministry.
And some other ones that were not elevated to cabinet level, he is elevating to cabinet level.
He put the general ministry into the hands of his sister, and his sister's hands. That required
getting around the law that prohibits that kind of nepotism,
pointing family members to top positions. How did he get around that law so quickly?
Well, he signed an executive order. This is not looking too good. At first, oh, he got rid of
nine agencies, and yet it's just window dressing because the functions remain.
That's like saying, well, I'm going to get rid of the Department of Education, but we're going to take all that and we're going to put it under the Health and Human Services, right, HHS.
It's just musical chairs.
And then it's nepotism.
And it's executive orders. So rather than it looking like he is keeping his promises,
which is what the mainstream alternative press is saying,
I think exactly the opposite is true.
He, as a matter of fact, Blue Apples wrote on Twitter,
said, understand, these people are politicians.
Trusting any politician of any persuasion weaves a doomed destiny into the tapestry of a nation's fate. hopelessly naive, if not outright false belief that a populist hero will emerge from the
corruption of the establishment to dismantle it.
The most recent poster child of that is a newly elected Argentine president.
Exhibiting charisma, Malaya was able to rampantly ascend from humble political origins.
He echoes the tenor of Donald Trump from 2016.
And if you remember, in 2016, what was Trump saying?
He was going to be the outsider.
He's going to be the guy with no political experience, just like Javier Malai.
He's going to shake up this corrupt cronyism and everything.
What is the first thing that Malai does?
He appoints his sister.
And he has to overthrow the law with an executive order to do it.
Trump is going to shake up the whole system, as Zach Montanaro said on Twitter.
He said, if you remember, pre-election, Trump was saying that he was going to prosecute Hillary Clinton.
Trump, after the election, said, I don't want to hurt the Clintons.
Said, beautiful Hillary was a friend, and he had a lot of respect for her.
He didn't drain the swamp then.
He's not going to do it now.
That's the reality.
That's why we're talking about Javier Malai.
It's maybe easier to see it when you're not emotionally invested.
And somebody likes it.
People are so emotionally invested in Trump.
How they've invested time, money, votes into this guy.
But again, remember what he said before the election.
And here's a reminder of what he said about Hillary.
The Clintons are criminals. Remember
that. They're criminals. I am going to instruct my attorney general to get a special prosecutor
to look into your situation. Said that to her face in debate. Honestly, she should be locked up. She has to go to jail.
Ending this criminal government corruption is one of the most important reasons you have to go out on November 8th.
CNN projects Donald Trump wins the presidency.
Two weeks later.
The president-elect will not pursue any investigations into Hillary Clinton.
They're good people. I don't want to hurt them.
Quote, I don't want to hurt the Clintons. I really don't.
She went through a lot and suffered greatly.
He doesn't wish to pursue these charges.
If Donald Trump can help her heal, then perhaps that's a good thing.
He needs to heal the rule of law, and he needs to forget about healing Hillary Clinton.
What would be at odds with the promises to drain the swamp that President-elect Trump
made, promises which helped him win office?
No, it's okay.
No, they got it.
That plays great before the election.
No, we don't care, right?
I was very honored, very, very honored when i heard that president bill clinton
and secretary hillary clinton was coming today and i'd like you to stand up
have a lot of respect for those two people we all want the same thing we're all good people
we call her beautiful hillary now, you know, that one's over with.
Yeah.
That's put together by the Ron DeSantis campaign.
Bullseye.
You nailed him.
You showed exactly what he is about.
Oh, that was before the election.
This is after the election. That's the
thing about Trump.
The comedian. out oh that was before the election this is after the election that's the thing about trump is that um the comedian uh he he's uh very frank and he is the black comedian who is um
i got everybody hating maybe you can okay dave chapelle dave chapelle okay uh he says you know
the thing about trump is he comes out and he tells you all those
people in there, they're criminals.
And you're like, oh, great.
He's, he's blowing the whistle on all these people.
And he goes back in and he joins them.
That's exactly what he did with this election.
You understand?
Yeah.
They're evil people.
They got to go to jail.
She's really got to go to jail.
He tells her in the face to face and the debates that you, I'm going to come after you.
I'm going to prosecute you.
And then when it's all done, they show up to his inauguration.
I wonder if he paid her to be there.
He said he paid Hillary Clinton to go to his daughter's wedding.
People said, you've been sending her money.
You've been supporting her.
They're in New York.
You're a New York Democrat.
You've been a New York Democrat until you reimagined yourself as a conservative Republican,
a gun-loving Republican, and all the rest of the stuff.
And of course, he doesn't love guns.
He set a precedent of gun control by executive order.
But they said, you've always been heavily involved with the Clintons.
So you attended your daughter's wedding.
Oh, I paid her to be there.
Did he pay her to come to his inauguration?
Like the political climate that fostered support for Trump's election in 2016,
Argentina finds itself in a similar state of upheaval,
while the premise of handing the presidency off to an establishment figure
representing the insular political class and Hillary Clinton
was a catalyst for popular support for a fringe
candidate in 2016. The backdrop that set the stage for Malai's election was an economic climate in
Argentina. It was more disastrous than any that's been seen in generations, nearly 150% inflation.
So that was the hook for Malai. the hook for trump was i'm an outsider
i'm against these insiders i know hillary she's corrupt vote for me and then after he became
president he really doubled down on the anti-global so he's no longer anti-hillary right now
it's beautiful hillary then after he gets elected he pretends that he is Mr. Anti-Globalism,
and yet he does everything the globalists want.
Let me tell you, when he gets in a second time,
he's going to want to impress the left so much
that the establishment is going to write good things about him and remember him.
And of course, that won't happen, but he wants to believe that.
The same reason he keeps giving Maggie Halberman at the New York Times exclusive access to him.
I think it's the New York Times that she writes for, not the Washington Post.
But he keeps giving her access.
And Trump's supporters and the mainstream alternative media will say, stop doing that.
You know that she's going to stick the knife in your back.
Why do you keep giving her access?
Give us access to you, right?
Because they're all about access.
And yet he does it because it is so important to him.
He thinks that he's going to get a good write-up from her.
And he keeps thinking it, no matter what happens, he keeps thinking she's going to come around
and he's going to do that as president. Anyway, the Biden administration will have, um, a lot
of comfort in the fact that Malai intends to remain a part of the Paris agreement on Climate Change. And he actually sent his diplomat there on the day that he was being installed there as president in Argentina.
He sent a diplomat, Marcia Lavaggi, who assured the UN at COP28 climate summit in Dubai, said Malai is a liberal. He's a libertarian. He
believes in market forces and the market demands to include measures to address climate change.
Now, how do you define the market? Is this what people are wanting to buy in terms of electric
vehicles? Are we all saying, I have to have an electric vehicle because of all this CO2 out there?
No, it's not coming from the people.
This is all coming from, this is top down.
This is coerced, it's forced, it's blackmailed, it's a gun to our head.
This is saying, well, to say that this is a market demand is as cynical as saying, well, I'm not forcing anybody to get a vaccine.
I'm just saying that if you don't get a vaccine, you're not going to go to school.
You're not going to travel.
You're not going to have a job.
You're going to be kicked out of society.
I'm not forcing you to get a vaccine.
And if you say that all of this climate nonsense is market driven.
That's just as cynical.
The Malai administration intends to keep its commitment to reach net zero emissions by 2050.
Nothing is changing there.
So nothing is changing there.
Nothing is changing in terms of the wars abroad.
And so,
and he's got the full support of the imf because again you could have
explained that away at the beginning by saying well the imf is worried about getting any money
out of this basket case economy so maybe they're looking for somebody who's going to have radical
economic change but it seems like all the globalist organizations are aligning behind
him and he's aligning with them while argentina is poised to undergo a seismic shift in its domestic policy,
the tenets of Malai's early foreign policy framework demonstrate a
contradiction to his previous steadfast rejection of globalism.
And so if we're going to look at Javier Malai, we're going to say, well,
is he just saying that to get elected, just like Trump said things to get elected? And
are we going to judge him by his policies and what he does or by what he said as a candidate?
Are we going to judge Trump by his policies of what he's already done in four years? Are we
going to judge him by his campaign promises? You know, when he ran in 2016, nobody knew what he's going to do. He'd never held political office before.
We had a lot of indications that he was a New York Democrat allied with Hillary Clinton.
It's just a phony Hegelian operation. All of these elections are. So as the earliest
of developments in his newly inaugurated presidency are counterintuitively playing to the global establishment do you think he's um
he's playing 4d chess is that really what's going on here yeah as alex would always say about trump
well joe biden's got to solve an electoral math problem in order to get elected, says CNN.
Do you think that Joe Biden can do math still?
I think he knows that two plus two equals five.
I think he knows how to force things on people.
But again, this is CNN saying that, as I said earlier in the program,
these people have already elected Trump in their
minds and in their media.
He won the Republican primary a long time ago, according to these people, even though
we're still a month or so away from first primaries in Iowa.
They say, well, look at this.
We've got polls that say that Trump is at 51% in Iowa.
You see, they've always used polls to influence
people. They call them push polls. You can push this kind of stuff out there and people say,
well, I don't know. They keep saying that Nikki Haley's got all this momentum. I really never
thought, but maybe I'm missing something. If everybody else thinks that Nikki Haley is great,
maybe Nikki Haley is great. And not only that, but I want to back the winning person.
It's like backing the winning horse or the winning team somewhere.
I want to be on the winning side.
I don't want to get behind this guy who they tell me is losing.
How do they know he's losing?
Do you trust any of these polls?
These are the same people who consistently miss in the polling
when it comes to the election.
And again, maybe the polls are right.
Maybe the elections are wrong.
Or if the elections are honest, maybe their polls are completely wrong.
And maybe what we ought to do is maybe we ought to use the same standard of measurement
that the State Department does when they say,
if you want to know if a foreign election is rigged, you look at the exit polls, and if they vary more than 5% from the reported
results, somebody's manipulating something here. That's what our State Department does in foreign
elections, but we don't do that here. We have exit pollings, and they'll tell you everything
about every issue and about every demographic group. It's like, look, the know, the left-handed white men all voted for this particular candidate.
They'll tell you all that kind of stuff in great detail, but they will never tell you
the exit polls in such and such an area or in such and such a state.
The exit polls chose overall, they picked Trump or Biden or whatever but they'll never tell you that
because they don't want you
looking at the exit polls
versus the reported votes
so don't get
vested in these elections but do understand
how they're going to come after you
and how this
is going to play out
Georgia plus Michigan plus one more
equals a Trump win this is CNN to play out. Georgia plus Michigan plus one more equals a Trump win.
This is CNN.
And of course the conservatives, after Trump wins, if he does win,
the conservatives will just stand by and let him run the table for Davos.
Just like Alex and company did in saying it was 40 chess in 2020.
These people, I tell you, you know, as I said yesterday,
David Hike said, calls them the MAMS, the mainstream alternative media.
He said, that's what's behind all this pageantry with Musk
and with Tucker Carlson and with Alex Jones.
They're establishing a mainstream alternative media.
This is the Hegelian operation, right?
So we're growing up an opposition media to CNN, New York Times, and Washington Post and stuff like that.
They're going to, you know, the left-right Hegelian dialectic that they're setting up here.
And the mainstream alternative media will go so far but no further,
and they will not criticize Trump.
Why?
Well, because it's not good business for them, first of all,
but because it also is, in a sense, he didn't call it mockingbird press,
but I think a better term for it, the mainstream alternative media,
even though I liked, as a group, you can call them the mammies.
They're like house slaves, uh, but you know, it's, uh, I think a better term for them than MAM, I
think is the Neil mockingbirds because really being run by the CIA and maybe
instead of mockingbird, you call it MagGA birds. That's Operation MAGA bird.
That's maybe too many hops in terms of derivation there for people to get it.
But Jack Smith is going to be using Trump's phone data at a trial.
Is this going to be the Perry Mason moment?
Where he says, I didn't do this.
I didn't do that.
Well, I happen to have your phone
information here as it happened with uh alex but i gave you all the information no you didn't here's
some of the stuff we requested that we found on your phone because your lawyer sent it to us
so they're now asking as well the supreme court to decide before they get into this trial, whether or not, uh, the president is immune from prosecution.
Uh, they wanted to, uh, they asked, uh, yesterday, Jack Smith asked the
Supreme court to quickly rule on Trump's claim that he is immune from
prosecution, because this is something that happened while he was president.
And the Supreme court said they will expedite consideration of this request
and trump's team has got until december 20th to respond i mean we're talking about only
10 days or so the judge chutkin is uh got the case i said that she rejects the idea that trump's
lawyers have claimed that he has absolute immunity because it was based on actions that he took while he was in office.
This case presents a fundamental question at the heart of our democracy,
whether a former president is absolutely immune from federal prosecution for crimes committed while in office.
That's their statement that they want answered. And it's also going to be an issue because if this trial gets put off until after
the 2024 election, and if Trump were to win again, then, um, he'll simply
have all this stuff dismissed.
And that is basically what they're looking at.
When you look at the people who really were exploited, ripped off, and now sent to jail,
many of them very angry.
You saw the clip of Roger Stone.
He had the documentary group following him around, and he just could not contain his
anger as he was speaking on the phone and talking about what he would do to Trump if
Trump were to win again. But now, big sycophant for trump why well because um uh trump is his hope
you know he's got a and same thing with the proud boys you know very few people who got thrown under
the bus and ripped off jailed and all the the stuff. Very few of those people actually come out critical of Trump because he's now their ticket
out of jail, their only ticket out of jail, a Trump presidency where they hope that he's
going to show some loyalty to his people.
Well, keep hoping, quite frankly.
And then there's this back and forth about the left is saying,
he's going to be a dictator.
And so then he gets on with Sean Hannity,
and Sean Hannity says, are you going to be a dictator?
And he says, well, I'll do it for a day.
That's all I need to do it for.
And so then now the left picks that up,
and now everybody's doing this thing back and forth as dictator for a day.
You realize he was a dictator from March until Novembermber when the election was and then on the medical martial law
that's why i opposed trump so strongly that's why i got fired because i opposed that he was a
dictator that entire time what are you talking about he turned over our government to a bunch
of bureaucrats medical medical martial law.
What's the point of even having an election when these people who are given
the power to run roughshod overs,
given the money to run roughshod overs.
If we don't have,
uh,
if we're going to have rules without representation,
regulation without representation,
things under color of law without any representation,
what's the point of having an election?
None.
He's already been dictator.
What's all this back and forth about?
Why is the left giving him a free pass on all this stuff?
And why is, more importantly, why are the conservatives?
And that's the thing that really concerns me about a second Trump term and why I've
been opposing this for the longest time.
I remember right after this stuff ended, after January the 6th, and even after Biden is installed and all the rest of this stuff, people were angry at me because I was criticizing Trump.
It's like, shut up.
He's not president anymore.
Leave him alone.
You've got derangement syndrome.
I said, no, he's not.
He's not done yet. He's going to run again got derangement syndrome. I said, no, he's not. He's not done yet.
He's going to run again.
And his second term is going to be much worse.
Chris Christie says the second term of the Trump administration is likely to be staffed by, quote, deranged sycophants.
Well, first of all, I'd have to say there's not any presidential staffs that are not of any president, any party.
They're all staffed by sycophants in
the first place but it isn't the staff that really control anything it's the people who
you know the president reports to the true deep state certainly you know you could say that the
derangement that is there that is also a part of it, that is a permanent fixture.
But I think it'll be especially true as Trump is coming in.
But the key is not the people underneath him.
The key is the people over him.
And the fact that he was doing the same thing that every politician in every nation was doing throughout 2020, which is marching in lockstep
behind the World Economic Forum,
behind the rest of these people.
And I'm telling you that it gets in the second time.
He's going to march in lockstep
with a climate MacGuffin.
And there may be a, you know,
some kind of a pandemic MacGuffin there as well.
We'll be right back.

APSradioNews.com features articles and commentary,
along with audio from all the top news
from around the world.
APSradioNews.com. © transcript Emily Beynon You're listening to The David Knight Show.
Well, let's understand what the DNA or what the ID is coming in.
And of course, DNA is, they're looking at this as the ultimate globalist ID.
Wouldn't that be interesting?
Instead of having to have something inserted under your skin,
as I have talked about doing,
what if it's your DNA, the ultimate global ID?
And this is coming from Biometric Update,
picked up by Technocracy News.
Your DNA is beyond unique for every person,
revealing all your genetic predispositions, all of your family connections.
It cannot be altered and endures lifelong immutability.
And so you can understand why these people are excited about it.
You know, it's interesting because John Lennox, who is an Irish mathematician, I enjoyed listening to him.
He debates.
He's a Christian apologist, which
he's not apologizing for being Christian. He is explaining to people, debating people. He's
debated Richard Dawkins and many other atheists. And he's a really brilliant person. And of course,
when he talks about DNA, he talks about it as being a code, right? And he says, if you stop and think about it,
if you make this a word, he says, it's really the longest word. And he says, at the very beginning,
we are told, in the beginning was the word logos. And it is not just a word, but it is something
that also embodies a purpose, a plan, all the rest of this.
And since DNA is reflective of that defining logos, that defining intelligence,
and Crick and Watson understood that when they discovered it,
said, well, we can't have come here by accident. It has to be planned.
But, of course, we know there can't be the God of the Bible.
So we're going to say that space aliens did this and we'll call it pan-spermia. But biometric identification
solutions are going to be a angle that they're going to play in this, I think. For citizens,
proof of their own identity is going to be the key to state benefits, to education, to mobility,
just as we saw with the rollout. But of course, if you're illegal, somebody that they want to have here,
they will not ask you for ID.
You'll be able to do anything that you wish without those restrictions.
And so this is something that, again, you could say that it is immutable.
But the question is, if they're going to give us DNA vaccines,
and if they're going to give us mRNA, and they're're going to give us mRNA and they're going to modify things like that,
is it really immutable?
Are these two different things going to work against each other?
That's the question.
And so as they say,
unlike fingerprints or IR scans or facial shapes,
which change over time,
the DNA does not change,
but it can be modified and that's what they were working on.
So as we continue to look at it, the key thing to understand is that DNA identification is far more precise than other biometric methods and they're always looking at a way to mark us to corral us to track us
which truly is amazing when you think about their obsession with all this carbon travel for example
soon you will be restricted by your personal carbon allowances they estimate that your
standard of living is going to be reduced by over 85 percent 90 percent if you're on a, if you want meat or dairy, they're going to shut all of
this stuff down.
This will all be their methods of control.
Before we run out of time here on RockFan, Sergey, thank you very much for the tip.
He says, David, I got to say, always refreshing to hear your analysis.
You're as real as it gets.
Well, thank you.
Tired of all
my friends shilling for trump and alex me too uh as a matter of fact i said something the comment
that i made on twitter the other day and some person responds i said you know i worked for him
for 10 years and i gotta say whatever and first comment there was uh sources what are you talking about sources i'm telling you what i
saw there believe me or don't believe me uh i am the source as i saw it i mean all of you lived
through all this stuff as well you experienced firsthand what trump did 2020 why are people
supporting this is the amazing thing to me as i I pointed out, people who, uh, are,
you know,
the,
even their handle on Twitter is no vaccines.
And yet they shill for Trump.
It wasn't Trump.
It wasn't his fault.
He was responsible for everything that happened.
And if he was bamboozled,
why do you think it isn't going to happen again?
I don't think he was bamboozled.
I don't,
you know,
that's the interesting thing.
I don't think that Trump is stupid. The Trump supporters think he's stupid because the Trump
supporters are stupid. If they haven't caught onto this trick yet, they are beyond hope,
quite frankly, uh, on rock fan. Uh, thank you for the tip. Okay. You got me with a special
take on the nutcracker suite heading to get mine day. Well, thank you very much. That is
a really nice to hear that.
Um,
I appreciate that.
And again,

Again,
it is a digital download is the delivery that we have there.
But,
um,
uh,
as,
as we're about to run out of time,
uh, I just want to say that, um, uh, as, as we're about to run out of time, uh, I just want to say that, um,
just, just tell everybody that, that, uh, I really do appreciate all the support that you've given
us. Uh, by the way, we still have, uh, some, uh, black Friday sales on t-shirts on tumblers.
And I've got that clip here somewhere where I can show it to you. the uh the t-shirts that we have are available
